Shoot, man.
13 days.
Until Christmas, right?
And then what?
18 days until the end of the year?
Left of the year?
Yeah, something like that.
18, 19 days?
Just flying by, man.
We kind of blew right past Pearl Harbor Day.
Yeah.
We didn't talk about it last time.
Yeah, we did.
We did.
Yeah, we lightly talked about it.
Well, first of all, because I want to address that.
And I also want to address what our guest, Kevin, was talking about with the Japanese
United States citizens.
Oh yeah, we did talk about that.
Yeah, we did.
All right, well first of all, it's December 12th and it's turning a little festive still.
Yeah, I think so.
I'm getting in the mood a little bit.
Thank you, producer, for being here tonight, for producer Austin, Dudes Like Us.
I am Sean.
I'm Paul.
And I am Jeff.
We're flying slow-low.
Slow-low?
Slow-low.
I had a little bourbon on my lip.
Yes, yes, yes.
So, the last podcast we had Kevin out here and Kevin enjoyed some cocktails and thank
God he made it home safe.
Good boy.
But anyways, he was talking about, I was bothered.
I mean, I thought about it several times, you know, because growing up in high school
and it was taught in history what had occurred to the Japanese residents when the Pearl Harbor
happened and how they corralled them all and put them in concentration camps, essentially.
Internment camps, yeah.
But they glossed over it.
They kind of did.
I didn't know it was four years.
Yeah, it was.
You would think they would vet them and then let them go.
No, it was the length of the war.
Well, it was the black eye.
It was the black eye for the United States.
But the thing about it is that we didn't give it the right kind of attention.
And, you know, we talk about all those reparations for these folks that may or may not have come
from Africa as slaves.
And here we are in the United States enslaving our own people, our own United States citizens,
that just happened to be coming from Japan.
And it's just like, to me, that has more merit of reparations than some of the folks that
weren't even in Africa, you know, getting reparations.
And it just kind of bothered me and it kind of stuck with me a few days.
And, you know, I'll let it go, but I didn't want to be a, I didn't want to not say something
because that is an important part of history and we should not be very proud of that.
Was it the right thing to do?
No.
Were there some concerns?
You know, it turns out there was some concerns.
Well, the Japanese back in the day were bad.
Yeah.
Not somewhere.
They weren't to be, I mean, that was a total sucker punch they pulled.
Oh, yeah.
And so they were like, well, what lengths are they going to go to to be even more mischievous?
Right.
Correct.
Let's look at the, let's look at some of the history of what Japanese people have done
for this country.
I mean, you talk about how the black slaves have done stuff.
Well, they have.
But the the what's it called? Thank you.
The Japanese people, they were pioneers in the railroading.
That was Chinese.
I think it was Chinese.
Chinese.
And Mr. Producer, I apologize.
I have a hot tea out there.
Can you grab that for me as well, please?
Thank you.
You sound a little.
I got a little something going on there.
Got some phlegm or something.
It's just I don't know, man.
It's just.
It's that time of year.
It's the season.
Yeah.
I mean, I would say I have a little a light cold and some of these people like,
Yeah, you got COVID.
You know, you know what?
Speaking of the the turn of this, when I say turn of the century, the 19th century,
right, there's a really good show on HBO.
I guess it's called Max now.
Right.
And it's called Warrior Max.
No, it's not Skinny Max.
I think that's kind of gone out the window.
The whole Skinny Max thing.
Oh, not the Pornhub's here.
Yeah, no shit.
But there's a TV show.
I think it's in its third year.
I've watched them all.
It's a really good show.
It's called Warrior.
And one of those, it takes place in the turn of the century.
San Francisco, I think, or Los Angeles, somewhere.
I think it's San Francisco.
And it's the Chinese.
So you have Chinatown, but then you have the Irish and they're fighting for the same work
to work in the steel mills.
Right.
So you have these hard ass Irish guys who could beat the shit out of everybody.
Then you have these Chinese guys who could basically beat the shit out of them because
they're ninjas.
They're ninjas.
Well, that's Japanese.
But it's this right here.
But where are they?
Action packed.
Well, no, this is a TV show.
No, but was it typical Japanese or Chinese people?
Were they in the martial arts?
Was that part of their upbringing?
Well, I don't know.
But it was part of these guys' upbringing.
And really good action fight scenes.
It's kind of like an old Western type of thing.
I'll tell you what, I really enjoy watching, or at least enjoyed watching some of those
Asian fighting movies.
I mean, they're acrobatic.
I mean, it's amazing some of the stuff they could do.
I mean, you don't understand anything they're saying.
And it's quite hilarious because they have closed caption.
Well, I recommend this because...
It looks good.
We're looking at the preview right now.
It looks really good.
It's really good.
You got the cops against everybody.
Political intrigue, you know, the people trying to pull all the strings, the rich people who
own the steel factories.
And then you got the Chinese trying to make their way.
And I would imagine, I mean, that's probably a legit struggle back then, right?
I mean, you had these migrants coming in.
There was a limited amount of work, right?
That's the Irish guy.
Kind of like right now, to be honest.
And so, yeah.
Except way, way, way worse.
Yeah, I mean, you're there to fend for yourself, right?
Oh, man, I'll tell you what.
Back then, I'm sure they didn't get much government subsidies and government handouts.
They didn't get shit.
They had to work for everything, right?
Something that really grinds my gears.
I recommend that show.
Yeah, I'm definitely watching.
It's on Netflix currently?
It's on HBO Max.
On HBO Max?
Yeah, if you got that.
So I got to tell you something that really, really grinds my gears.
I was trying to watch the news today when they had the Five on, right?
I mean, it was interrupted by the press conference with the Ukraine president Zelensky.
And Biden.
Excuse me.
And it just, he's here to ask for more money.
That's basically what he's here for.
Right.
And it's just like, and he's like, oh, well, just thank you, Biden.
Thank you. Thank you.
And I'm thinking, no, motherfucker.
Thank me.
Right.
Thank my neighbor.
Right.
Thank my brother.
Thank the United States citizens.
Don't thank Joe Biden.
Thank us.
Because we're the ones that are paying for this shit.
Well, if you think about the amount of money that we've dumped into Ukraine, how much of
that could have gone to other things?
Yes.
Five billion of that could have built the wall.
Well, I mean, we gave them $100 billion, didn't we?
$120, I think, at this point.
Yeah.
So what if we were to put that into Social Security?
Did you say $120 billion?
Oh, yeah.
It's more than that right now.
I just don't believe you did.
I mean, what if we were to put that into Social Security?
What if we did?
What if we put it into solving the homeless problem?
Oh, yeah.
Obviously, that can happen because you saw it happen in San Francisco, right?
When the Chinese premier visited.
Well, the president came over.
Yeah, they wiped out all the homeless people, cleaned it up, looked nice.
But look, here's the thing that I really wish that they would address is that I don't want
to be that douchebag that doesn't help out another country.
Absolutely.
But what is the return?
Is it, oh, you fit to feel good about yourself?
No, that's not quite what I want.
I mean, I feel bad for them.
What they're framing what the good of it is is that it'll keep Russia from expanding their
aggression past Ukraine.
It's like, that is not going to happen.
What does Ukraine have to offer us in return?
Besides holding all the secrets that they don't want us to know.
But what do they have with minerals?
I mean, they're loaded with minerals.
It's a big farming country.
But my point is, is that what are we going to get in return?
Because if we're going to be sending them all this money, which again, I'm not necessarily
100% against, I want to help them.
Absolutely.
I want to help them out.
But, you know, we got to have some return.
We need some extremely discounted whatever the fuck they got up there.
You know, I mean, China's up there right now.
I mean, China's up there right now.
China's harvesting all the minerals out there.
China's in Ukraine.
In Ukraine.
Chinese up there.
Maybe we are as well.
Afghanistan.
Maybe we're in Ukraine mining right now.
Well, that's just it.
We don't know.
And it's they're not very transparent about it.
Everything that is going on is behind closed doors.
We need more money.
It's kind of like giving your kids money to go to the movies or giving your kids money
to do something.
You're like, bitch, I already gave you 100 bucks.
You need more.
And not to mention Ukraine already has a horrible history of corruption.
Correct.
And that money is lining so many pockets.
I mean, it's just like.
Zelensky is going to come out of this extremely wealthy.
Oh, yeah.
If he doesn't get killed, he'll be extremely wealthy.
Who?
Zelensky.
Yeah.
He'll be extremely wealthy at the other end of this.
Oh, yeah.
For sure.
Well, he's already super wealthy.
I mean, it sounds like it's it's pretty much a stalemate and, you know, they're just.
But Biden's talking up a big storm, a big, big, big talk saying, oh, Putin is losing.
Putin is failing and he's losing the war and all this shit.
It's like, you know what?
Putin can destroy Ukraine.
Destroy it if you want it to.
He can go and just devastate it, just level it.
All he's got to do, I mean, is use the nuclear potential that Hillary Clinton gave him to
to melt Ukraine.
Well, I mean, anybody could.
I know. Well, but you can't you can't play the nuclear card, right?
Well, that's what they're that you know what they're everyone's playing the nuclear card.
Not yet. They're threatening.
Man, you know, I say circle the wagons.
Let's take care of the United States.
We have I mean, I don't know if I mentioned this in the last podcast, but there was a news report of
the cameras showing like over 500 Chinese nationalists coming in.
Correct. And it's just like what is going on?
These aren't families. These are these are military aged men.
Yeah, these guys are. Look, man, it's not good, man.
We're we're man. This is bad deal.
I'm not I'm not excited about this.
I'm excited that Zelensky comes in on in our fucking house and asks for more money on top of everything we've given him.
Sorry, dude. You know, I love what Trump said to him back in 2018 19.
You know, it was like, hey, man, you really need to work this out with Putin, you know, right?
You know, and you saw the look on his face because it was right in the press conference.
And Trump's kind of like he's got his hands folded.
He's like, you really need to work this out.
Putin, you know, we got to stop having people die. And that's exactly what needs to happen.
Well, whatever, man, I hate talking about this shit.
But these are things that dudes like us know the growth, you know, right now, it's a sign of the times,
especially during the hard times, you know, because every company in the United States is affected by this.
You know, the unemployment is isn't as high as it should be.
At least it wasn't as high when Trump was in office.
Or you mean as low as low and they were bragging about, oh, well, unemployment is now three and a half percent.
Actually, it was a three and a half percent down because it's come down.
Half percent. I think it's come down. I don't know.
I don't know. What is the unemployment rate? I haven't heard the latest figures.
Yeah, well, it's just like unemployment is not really too much of an issue right now.
It's just inflation. Right. Yeah.
Yeah. Inflation. Another column it now the new well, it's not new, but shrink flation.
Right. You hear that term a lot thrown around out there.
We just pay the same amount for less like your cereal boxes are getting smaller.
Yeah, I noticed that like our bourbon bottles, bourbon bottles are now down to 700 milliliters.
At least some of them Jack Daniels tried doing that shit. What the fuck?
Oh, it's a European thing to do. Yes. Stop it. Did they stop doing it?
I don't think they just stop. I don't think they've stopped.
I don't know if it's on any other bottles though. And you know, I'm okay with that.
I mean, look, I'm okay with that. But don't charge the same price. Right.
You know, that's just it. You get a smaller box and you know, I'm disgusted with all kinds of tons of stuff.
And you know, I hope people want to listen to this podcast so they can escape.
And this is not helping, you know, bringing all this stuff up.
We need to dive right into it. You know what? I'll tell you.
Fucking Zelinsky. You know, it's weird. I got to Austin told me not to bring this up during the podcast.
I got to tell you. I fuck it. I'm doing it. Well, the thing is, is that it in look, I'm going to start this off with.
I don't really care. People can be them and whatever they want to do, just be the be yourself and be happy.
That's it. Be yourself and be happy. There's there's people, but men that paint their fingernails.
And how do you feel? I mean, every time I first of all, I don't care again.
But when I see someone with their fingernails painted, it just kind of no, Paul, it doesn't arouse me.
I see the way you're looking. It's just a different. We didn't grow up with that.
Yeah, exactly. So we just look at we think it's just we did grow up with men wearing makeup either.
Yeah, I mean, we did grow up with some guys wearing earrings, I guess. I had an earring. Right. I did, too.
I had several. Right. So I mean, a cockering. Right. Whoa.
You said I've used one, but I mean, was it a van dyke?
I mean, not a piercing. No. To the tip with a chain.
Yeah, I think we could stop there. I mean, I like how you unveiled a lot going on in there.
You unveiled your surgery today. So dudes like us have to have surgery every now and then.
You have to go to the dermatologist and get your skin checked out.
Look, he's got an open gash on his all sewed up. That is quite a lot.
It's not an open gash. It is sewed together. Yeah, it is sewed together.
Looks like a Frankenstein scar. Yeah, that's that's that's meaty.
Well, he even said that he goes, this is going to look big and nasty until we take the staples or the stitches out.
Because because we pull everything together, it's going to be all raised and nasty because once those come out, it'll lay down.
Yeah, but you know, you got to get it done.
The alternative is, you know, dying. So, yeah, you know, that's sure.
It's uncomfortable. I'm glad that I see that it's out and it doesn't look.
Extremely offensive, not like those pictures that I refuse to look at.
During the process. Yeah, you do. You fucking sent like five or six.
I don't even know. I just like school, school, school, school. I still haven't opened them.
I refuse to. I'm not going to look at those. Those are disgusting.
Yeah, it was. He had his tweezers. I saw one thing where he's pulling on something. I was like, fuck me.
Oh, yeah, I was there. Julie took those pictures. You're one sick motherfucker.
And what's what was interesting. You can talk about that shit.
Oh, Julie, Julie does. And she was one taking the pictures like right down there.
I watched them. And what's interesting is it's on my forearm and he removed the skin.
And he goes, he goes, you see this? I couldn't see it because it was over here down lower.
He was telling my wife, he goes, you see this bluish thing here? He goes, that's a vein.
He goes, that's what you see underneath the skin.
So he's pointing at it. I mean, it's like right there exposed. You can see it. I'll show it to you in the picture.
That's good. Thank you. So they took a lot off, a lot out.
Like, well, I guess the third layer of upper dermis.
Well, they go all the way down. Yeah. So that yellow stuff is the fat, right?
So that the yellow is the fat. Yeah. OK. So we're good. All right.
But when you have it done, I won't get into it too much. When you have it done, they measure it first.
And then they use a ruler. Yes.
He has a ruler. He'll come down, he'll measure it. He's speaking to his assistant.
Was it made out of wood?
No, it was not made out of wood. It was a little plastic thing.
And based off the size, then they have to go like four millimeters on each side and then on the, they make a big diamond, essentially.
That's interesting. So they use metric. Yes.
So they want, we have to go four millimeters outside to make sure they get all of it. Right. Right.
So they take extra off to make sure they get all of it, a certain amount.
Yeah, we ought to really switch over, get rid of the imperial system and jump onto metric. You know?
I don't think that's going to happen. It probably won't, but I mean, it'd be wise.
You know, I'd like to try to have them figure out how we can change the calendar, make that metric.
Or we can change it too.
So the, so no for you guys on the fingernails?
I don't really care. Like I said, I think.
I usually see the artsy type doing it.
Yeah.
Like the art students and musicians.
Well, you know, my daughter dated some dude. He came over here with cherry red fingernails.
No, pass.
They were, I mean, they looked nice. They were well manicured.
Were they like French manicured?
Well, no, they didn't have the French tips on them.
Did he have the gels and everything?
I just, I don't know what gels are.
I guess I just don't understand the why, the why behind it, but the why for our generation is different than the why for this generation.
So someone walks in and you're interviewing them and they come in and they have bright red fingernail polish on.
It wouldn't end well.
Do they, does that exclude them?
See, I would, you know, it would be a thing.
As a HR.
It'd be a check.
Yeah.
And mentally.
A mental check.
Yes.
You know, you've got these companies out there that you got to hire people.
There's some sort of a moving company out there that's being sued called Meathead Movers.
Meat.
Yeah.
Meathead Movers, I believe is something like that.
And they would hire a couple older guys and they sued them.
And they, I think they got 10.
They wanted like 10 million dollars or some ridiculous amount of money.
And they went down to five million.
And I think they're down to seven or fifty thousand.
But the point is, is that, I mean, they'll nowadays these people are coming.
Is that what it is right there?
Well, it's Meathead Movers getting sued for what is that called?
Age discrimination.
Yeah.
After touting student athlete workers.
Yeah, you can't do that.
You can't hire a certain type.
I always, I always think because I go down to the.
There you go.
I usually go down to the Panda Express down there by the mall.
And I only see Asians working in there.
Really?
So I'm thinking, well, they'll have some Hispanic cook or something like that.
Right.
But all the front houses, they're all Asian, which is fine.
But I'm wondering if I walked in here or my son or your son walked in here, would they be given a fair chance to work at this establishment?
Probably not.
And I mean, you're going to an Asian restaurant.
I mean, you'd have to.
It's not really Asian.
Not really.
It's fast food restaurant.
Yeah.
Well, that Meathead Movers and 8 Time Inc.
Five thousand honorary was sued by the EEOC for violating age discrimination law in September.
The suit claims that the company has failed to hire workers older than 40 for a variety of roles, including customer service positions since 2017.
I could see again if it's a very physical job and I walk in there and I'm 60 years old and you're like, can you lift?
There has to be some requirements.
If you're a mover, can you carry a dresser with someone up two flights of stairs?
Well, these guys were these guys were campaigning for people to work for them, like at the local gyms.
And so they were wanting all the people not just to be young and healthy, but student athletes is what it said.
Yeah. Well, I mean, they're student athletes, but they're wanting they're wanting healthy built individuals.
And that's it said student athletes, but it was it was just dudes that are big.
Well, it's kind of like it's kind of like what was the Abercrombie and Fitch?
Remember that store where you had to be essentially a model model to be able to work there.
Right. How'd they get away with that?
Oh, even Hooters.
Well, they hire all kinds of ladies there now.
Well, now, but I mean, there was a prerequisite and then you see some other.
They were like they were going to get suits and they let some guys work there.
So, yeah, but you got to wear the outfit.
Remember that they have pictures.
It's ridiculous.
I think I think like an Abercrombie Abercrombie and Fitch Fitch, you got to be a salesperson to you know what I mean?
I mean, that was a big part of it.
It wasn't just working there and you know what I mean?
Right.
It's just stocking stuff and well, it's an image that they're going right.
And actually, I saw a documentary on this where the guy who created Ambercrombie and Fitch was a tyrant.
Right.
And he got busted for discrimination.
Right.
I don't even know if Abercrombie and Fitch is around anymore, but they I don't think I've seen it, but I never go to a huge back in the 90s in the early 2000s, I think.
Right.
And it was all image based.
The stores you hear the music you walk by and you walk in there.
And there's there's shops just like that still.
Correct.
Right.
But anyway, what is it called?
Imacronium what Abercrombie and Fitch?
I don't think I've seen it in a while.
I don't know if it's the mall anymore.
Yeah.
But you know what I mean, though, salespeople like people walk in and they're like, yeah, I was looking at this shirt and they go, you know what, you need to wear that with your with yours, you know, your figure, you need to wear this and you know, you should look at these pants and you know, and what you do is you wear this, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
I think what I saw that that's that's the kind of people they want.
I think right.
I think what I saw in a documentary is they would only help the folks that look like them.
Yeah, because they only want the good looking people to wear those clothes.
So the company also failed to identify new trends in teen fashion and spending Abercrombie and Fitch hired new CEO in 2017 to oversee an overhaul of its brand.
At least 450 stores were closed with plans to close more.
The company has posted strong online sales results in the demographic of 18 to 24 years old.
Yeah, the documentary was interesting.
The whole thing. Yeah.
Was that BBC?
BBC investigation documentary. It could be.
It could be interesting.
Interesting crazy shit, man.
So, you know, we had our final fantasy football game played regular season last weekend.
So, I mean, Paul and I and Linda tied for third for first place.
And essentially you tied for second.
I believe Linda's first place, right?
Yeah, but we're all tied.
I mean, it's nine in a record.
Yeah, I mean, you're technically second.
But most importantly, I slipped into the third spot on the points.
I did.
It took a miracle for me to leapfrog three people to get into that final third spot in points.
And they had to get really low points and I had to get ridiculous amount of points.
How many points do you have? How many do I have now?
Yeah. Fourteen something.
Fourteen oh one. Yep.
So, yeah.
Crazy.
I mean, seriously, mathematically to see to see what I needed to do to make that happen was a long shot.
And I snuck in and then the playoffs start this weekend.
Yeah, I play I play fourth down hero four against five.
I play the Hawks.
Yeah, the rats play the Hawks and the bat wings play the Lakers.
Yep.
So I scored the second least amount of points in the league and I'm tied for first.
Yeah. As far as the record goes, you know, technically third.
If you want to look at it from that point.
But yeah, they look at the record.
Then you get a point after that. Right.
So I'm going to stop at the record.
So technically, yeah, Linda had a great season.
She's I think she's still the one to beat.
Oh, well, playoff seriously.
But she's been battle of the baseman since we started.
I mean, she's been so you mean years and years and years.
You mean, yeah, I mean, she just had bad luck.
I mean, it's all luck.
It is.
She had bad luck.
So this is great for her. I'm happy.
Well, she's doing particularly well because she has a number of of the Dolphins.
I do.
You do. That's me.
You have Tyreek. I don't have Tyreek.
I have the two running backs.
Yeah. I got the kicker and I beat Barry this past week.
Well, you know what? I don't give a shit about anything else.
I'd be buried.
Fuck you, Barry.
Well, Raheem Moster saved my skin this week because I was having around 48 points.
Yeah. He's got two touchdowns in not garbage time, but two touchdowns after two horrible turnovers.
Yeah. And I was just like, I was like, come on, guys.
Yeah. Your team was like a nutsack.
I mean, I saw your quarterback at a minus four one point and the kicker was at a minus one.
I was like, what the hell?
Yeah. I was like, I was like, I need to win this.
I was like, what did they do to the quarterbacks that to make them not score as much points?
They dropped it from six to four points for a touchdown.
This is the first year we've done that. I don't know why we did.
Why did we do that? I don't think on this.
I don't remember voting on it.
I don't think that was a wise decision.
I don't think so either.
You know, it kind of I disagree with that strong line.
Yeah, it really it takes the it takes the power out of out of running out of the quarterback a lot.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
So now you question, do I take a quarterback first or do you need to get a top running back or wide receiver?
Makes you think twice about getting more.
It's or I tell you what, or even a top defensive guy linebacker because their points.
I've got 20, 28, almost 30 points by some of my line.
So for dudes like us out there that play fantasy football, typical fantasy leagues don't have they have a defense like you pick a team.
We actually have like defensive line. We started DL and DB defensive back in the lineman.
So, you know, linebacker, you got to have a then you have a yes.
Then we have to have a backup.
So we got 20 people on our roster and I mean, I like the rest of it how it's set up.
I'm thinking, you know, the the tight ends really.
I mean, if you could pick up a super hot tight end.
Yeah, I mean, well, but if you can pick up a if you pick up a power tight end, I mean, that makes a big difference.
There's not a lot of them out there. There's not.
There's like three, four. That's healthy.
But my point is, is that, you know, I don't think next year I'm going to wait because I used to wait like I pick I pick the kicker like fucking last.
It's like the very last pick is the kicker. Right.
And in the tight end is is a couple before that.
But I'm like, no, I think I'm going to move my tight end pick up a little bit.
It all depends on what's available at the time.
I mean, you know, if the three top tight ends go like fairly early, then and they're a dime a dozen after that, there's no point in burning a pick early pick.
They drop really fast point wise. Yeah, they do.
That's what I mean. Yeah. So it all depends on what's out there.
I mean, you the draft strategy should always be you take the best person available.
Yeah, like my my linebacker got as many points as my quarterback. Right.
So what makes me what makes me think the quarterback? Yeah, I should take first. Yeah, that's that's kind of my point.
Of course, you have the conversation with Barry.
Barry's gonna be like, we voted for that and it was unanimous.
And I don't remember that I don't remember that during the hustle bustle.
If you wanted to exit there left, there was there was no vote on that on a quarterback thing.
But I think we bring it up and say, well, let's vote on it again to see if that we still we need reparations from this past year.
Yes. Yeah, I need an extra 80 points for mine.
And that's reevaluate points redistributed.
Look, I'll joke and put aside Barry is a dick, but he does a good job with the the the the league.
You know, he takes care of stuff. He doesn't want it. He doesn't want to do it.
I think that's why the dick is like someone take it from me. Yeah, pretty much.
Well, he's kind of like I mean, it is a pain in the ass to be the commissioner, you know.
So we're in playoffs now. Are we still able to add and drop and shit like that? I don't think so.
No, I do think so. Your team is only frozen when you've been eliminated.
So can we do so we can trade with you know that I thought you were no longer allowed to pick up and drop.
So we cannot trade with the folks outside of the playoffs.
Our team is frozen. You should be able to trade with them.
That makes no sense. Oh, come on. Look, it's that's dumb. No, that's smart.
Slide your couple of cash under the table. Yeah.
Hey, hey, beavers. I've. Yeah, I see you have Lamar Jackson.
Yeah, that's right. Jerry didn't make the playoffs. Who didn't make the playoffs?
I don't know. Four teams. David Bain, the Beaver, the Blues, Plato Boys and Hole in One.
How many points Plato Boys has? Yeah, he didn't make the playoffs.
1390. He had more than me. Yes. That just goes to show.
That was like me last year. I had the second highest points and I was second to last.
Yes, I know. Well, you know, guys, it's you got to manage your team correctly.
Yeah. You got to dress accordingly. Yeah, we can give you some tips on that.
So I put just and I've had this conversation with you guys before.
You know, I put just enough talent on my team so that I don't say in bag because I'm not about that.
You know, let's win. Let's win clean. You have no control over it, Sean.
Oh, you talking about? Yes. You can have all the top players on there.
Then you still lose 31 points. I wasn't in it to win the most points.
I was in it just to play and have fun. Oh, shit. You're an idiot. Yes.
No, I'm not going to feel that either.
You want to feel the best team you can, but you never fucking know.
No, you don't. Speaking of being super excited in fingering animals, Paul, you got your first.
You got your first deer kill this past week. I did. I'm officially a hunter now.
And you said you fingered the butthole. I did not finger the ball.
Well, that seemed to be a popular. No, that West likes to talk about, you know, usually in the old days, you know, you tear out the heart, you pour blood all over yourself, you eat the heart and then you pound your chest and you know, that kind of thing.
I clearly saw apparently apparently West said the new thing to do now is to finger the butthole and wipe it on your face.
I don't know. I didn't really see the the the lure of that.
Is it their poop like little pellets? Yeah, I seem like it. Yes, they are. Yes, they are.
Anyway, yeah, it was interesting. I, you know, I didn't get I didn't sign on to this.
So when you when you shoot when you shoot the deer, does it have like, does it like lose its bowels process a bunch of pellets at once?
So you should say, oh, well, I think in general, whenever a living creature dies, yes, it can lose its bowels.
It can be. Yeah, just releases the muscles is no longer.
Well, you know, it's amazing when you have you have a body that has died for whatever reason and it's in the morgue and the doctor is doing something or the what they call the guy that does the morgue thing.
The corners rolling the body over and it'll fart or do some make some noise.
You know, that's a groan. Oh, groan with a groan.
Yeah, it goes, help me.
You know, over and over again, you hear these stories where there are people in a body bag in the wake up in the morgue and they're like, help me.
And they zip it up and they like freaking out and yeah, beat him up.
Like, what the hell? I don't know.
I yeah, there's been multiple stories like that now.
One is recent is like last week.
Seriously. Yeah, yeah.
It's so crazy. Their heart just went down to almost nothing.
They thought they were dead. Right. It was pumping enough to keep the brain alive.
I guess. So, so yeah, I probably do need I have been a hunter for a long time, but I've never actually shot anything.
That was the first time I have discharged my weapon. So let's walk us through what happened.
I mean, because I mean, did you feel good about you proud went up there and held over your head?
Was it a big one? I mean, was a baby Bambi or was it the mom or so that was grisly.
That was going to be my only day to hunt. Right.
And I don't know if I'm going to even get a chance to hunt again.
So I was like, it is so different from elk hunting elk hunting.
I mean, you literally set out into the field and you go up mountains and you're and you're trying to figure out where they'll be and you're hunting them here.
You're sitting on a chair, staring at a feeder, drinking, waiting for the feeder to go off.
And then the feeder goes off and dumps a bunch of corn.
And then you wait for like another 45 minutes because they're conditioned now kind of like cattle to come to the feeder.
I mean, it's just really that's not really hunting. That's not hunting to me.
That really is not hunting to me.
And I and I I guess if I had been a deer hunter first and then I was an elk hunter type of thing, it would have been a totally different kind of experience.
But I started out four years of elk hunting.
And now I'm doing this. See, now we now we know how those fun is what I get.
It wasn't that it wasn't fun. It was just like really, really.
Now we know how those dinosaurs felt on Jurassic Park when they would kind of hang on some sort of meat, a little goat.
And then the Toronto source Rex would come up and it's like it's not much of a hunt.
Remember the little conversation they had about that?
Yeah, it really it wasn't. I mean, you're not doing and you're you as a hunter are not doing anything to increase your chances other than maybe not making.
Well, you got to shoot it. Well, you're not hunting. You're shooting.
You're shooting. You're just shooting.
Yeah, it's like going to the shooting range. Right.
Except you have to wait for the target to pop up. I'm OK with that.
I'm OK with killing deer like that.
I mean, I mean, it is the way it is. I mean, I'm you know, it's not good or bad.
It's just different than what I was expecting. But it's still fun.
I don't know if I'd call it hunting. They should call it something else.
Yeah, she called it. What? I don't know.
Shooting deer in a when you're hunting, you're actually out tracking or trying to find these animals.
You don't feed them and just wait. Yes, I actually agree with that.
It's not hunting. I agree. But at the same time, that is exactly how primal instincts work.
I mean, when you have these animals that need a drink, they go down to the pond and they drink.
And what happens there? That's like the prime spot for other animals to attack each other.
So it's not just us. I mean, if there was a natural situation, I would agree with you.
But you're putting out a feeder that's dropping corn at intervals to train them to come eat it.
Well, it's the same thing. It's a resource that they need, whether it's wild or food.
It's different than hunting, personally.
It doesn't matter. That's what deer hunting is.
It's semantics. I probably have a little more respect for bow hunting.
You've got to be closer to the animal. You've got to be quieter.
You have to be a better shot with a bow. You know what I mean?
But anyway, I was up in a stand. It was a very rickety, kind of rickety, I don't know, 12 feet up in the air.
And it was like every time I moved, I tried not to make any noise.
It would creak.
Well, it would creak. But also it would like start to lean.
And I was like, oh, my God, I'm going to fall to my death. And then it would go, and then I would lean the other way.
And so I was like terrified of falling out of this thing. And finally, I just calmed down about it.
I was out there for maybe two hours. And it was funny because I got bored and I was aiming the gun at the at the feeder, you know, just kind of looking around the feeder.
And all of a sudden, yeah, a doe just walks out of the trees and right into my crosshairs.
And I'm like, hmm, hmm.
So I want to take a shot at her because didn't look very big. But I knew it. I mean, I couldn't I really couldn't gauge how old the doe was. Right.
And I watched it for about three minutes waiting for the I mean, if she was going to present her perfect side to me, you know, got to be broadside and you want the head to be facing away from you.
So because you want to take a shot that is a humane, humane kill. Correct. Right. Through the heart, through the lungs, you know, so that, you know, they have a quick death. Right.
So I'm lining it up and I'm like, shit, this might be my only chance because, you know, the sun's going to go down.
So I went ahead and take the shot. And I got a 300 win mag, which is overkill for white tail deer. Right.
And it goes straight down. I mean, you're a story where you hear stories all the time of you hit it and then you got to you take the chase as it runs off.
Oh, yeah. Then it takes two hours of tracking the blood and you got to find out. And sometimes you never go. Now there's the hunting part.
Well, sometimes you never find track it. Right. You never. Yeah. Seriously, that part I respect as well. Anyway, it went straight down.
Well, maybe your bullet should have some sort of like a hollow point. Yes. Trigger. Like a little what do they call those little apple buttons?
Oh, you just shoot it. You know, apple tag into it. Right. Like a little disk gun.
You bring out your phone and go, OK, here it is. Right. Anyway, so then I, you know, I shoot it. It goes down.
Where do you shoot it, though? Shoot in the neck, the butt.
You're always trying to shoot right behind the shoulder, the shoulder blades. So that you like I said, you go through the heart, through the lungs.
Humane kill. So I'm thinking, oh, she went straight down. I must have been a perfect shot. Right.
So I get down. I start walking over there and I'm looking at her. I'm like, it blew his leg off. There's a bullet hole in the top of her back.
I shot her through the spine. OK. So she was paralyzed.
Well, it actually became a humane kill just by luck. So I hit her in the spine on the on the left hand side and a bullet came out of her neck on the right hand side.
So you know how they talk about the JFK thing, the magic bullet, the magic bullet, the dance.
So you had a magic bullet. Apparently, I had a magic bullet because the exit wound was in her neck when I hit her in the middle of the body on the top of the spine.
Well, that'll happen. You'll have bullets hit bones. Yes. Shooting your shoulder or shoot out your leg.
That's basically that's basically what happened. So anyway, interesting.
So the the deer dropped. And who's how many people are with you?
Nobody. Did you holler by yourself? Did you go out there and scream and yell?
So as soon as as soon as Jerry heard the shot, he started coming over with his I mean, we weren't far from the RV.
We're probably I don't know. One hundred and fifty yards from the RV. I don't know.
And so he came over with his he's got a little little eevee bike. It's a four wheeler.
It's a trailer like it's an eevee trailer. It's a little trailer on wheels like a little I don't know cart.
It's a cart. And so he brings it over with a hatchet and he shows me how to field dress it.
And and yeah, we put it in the cart and and rolled it on over to the next to the RV.
I mean, it was it was it was whatever. You just leave the pile of guts in the field. Yes.
For the coyotes and shit. Yeah. Yes.
You're giving you're giving back to nature.
Did you did you eat the heart or did you give the heart to Jerry?
We did not save the heart. Yeah. Jerry is a big proponent for eating the heart and stuff.
Well, he definitely wanted the elk heart. Oh, it was the elk stuff. OK. Yeah.
So anyway, I heard you cook that right. It's like a steak.
Yeah. He he watches the meat eaters show and he's real big on.
Yeah. So is he like he is a truly a hunter, like through and through his whole life.
So he puts it like a little sous vide bag and cooks it for like eight hours.
Yeah, he does stuff. I don't know. I don't know.
So I should I've watched somebody cook heart. They slice it thin and then they fry it.
So what are you going to do now that you got the the deer killed?
You cut it up. You're going to mount it. Process it.
I already did. It's kind of pricey, too. I mean, it wasn't a big dough.
And I had to spend it's a hundred about hundred dollars to have them process the cow.
And then I think the deer and then you I think you have to pay for whatever they.
I'm assuming you have to pay for whatever they make it into.
And I just told him I want nothing but smoked link sausage.
So interesting. Yeah. So you're providing the you're providing the raw material,
but you have to buy it back. I think so.
And spend a hundred dollars to process it. What about the tax?
What a racket. Yeah, it's a lot. How about you?
What about the tax of Dermie? Did you get a mountain?
I'm not mounting. I'm not mounting a baby doe.
You'd like having your back porch by your patio, your pool.
Right. I stand in there.
I told Shelley that I'm going to mount it and put maybe over the over the back seat,
over the over the bed, like over the bed.
It's like leaping out of the wall.
And then Jerry goes, well, that'll be the last thing you mount in there then.
Right. Yeah. Anyway, it was I mean, really the experience just being out of the
car. I mean, he's quiet. I mean, there's you know, there's hogs, there's coyotes,
there's, you know, just different shit. Did you see any hogs?
We tried to sneak up on some. They were under Jerry's feeder and his light,
his camera was going off, sending him pictures. He's like, they're there right now.
Get your A.R.s. So we got our A.R.s and we were like trying to sneak over there.
I mean, come on. We're so loud. Right. And they like scramble.
They're smart, too. Yeah. They're smart.
So yeah, we spoke to them and they ran away.
So we didn't get any shots at it. I don't have a night vision scope anyway.
So he was going to shine a light and we were going to like scare him.
Yeah. The shock will like take.
I don't know about Google Google Google, but to do it was going to be a boom.
Oh, damn, they're gone. I missed.
Yeah, really? Those things frolic real quick. They're like, bam, they're out.
Yeah, they're out of there. Yeah, exactly.
I need a night vision scope if I'm going to have really have some fun with that.
So let's get some night vision goggles so you can like flip them down.
Yeah, that would be there are people that have that man.
Like at the four tubes that they have people that that spend money on stuff like that.
Yeah, it's crazy. But so it was fun. It was fun.
Good. I've never been hunting.
But really, the story of the weekend was Jerry's been talking about how he wants to get a coyote, right, to shoot a coyote.
And so we're sitting there looking out the window and there's this big field.
He's like, nothing ever crosses this field. I don't understand why they even put a feeder over there.
Next thing I know, there's a coyote running across the field and Jerry's like, oh, my God.
And he grabs his rifle and he goes out there and, you know, it sees him.
It stops. It starts to teeter away.
Like, you know, anyway, it starts running. I mean, kind of trotting.
He hit it moving at one hundred and seventy yards and dropped it in one shot.
It was crazy. What do you do with it?
I usually leave it there for the other coyotes.
The reason why you want to kill coyotes and coyotes will scare away deer and they're actually kill deer.
Hogs will eat all the corn, eat all the feeder corn. Right.
And keep that from attracting deer.
So their their hosel damage the terrain as well.
They will. If you have crops and stuff like that, yeah, they're destructive.
But there's no rules about killing coyotes and pigs.
Well, you can do it any time of day, any time of night, year round, even like the terrain where you want to.
I mean, let's say you have a nice field out there.
They'll go out there and burrow and cause all kinds of havoc.
So not necessarily where they're destroying the land, but it makes it so that if you want to drive your truck through there, you're not going to be able to.
Sometimes you can haul ass. Well, you got to slow down when those hogs have been there because they leave these big pits.
They rot in the dirt. They dig it all up.
Yeah. So the.
What I see what they eat, what are those things in the ground, grubs, grubs?
Yeah, I don't know what they eat, but they eat everything.
But I mean, some people say they're some people say they're they're nasty eating.
But then some people say they're great eating. It depends on how you field dress it.
So anyway, so Jerry did shoot a hog and he yeah, he had it.
He had it processed. So did he like it?
We haven't gotten we haven't gotten any of it back yet.
OK, so I'm not going to get my my meat until like a couple of weeks.
Well, some of those hogs get huge.
Oh, yeah. No, when we look at the camera tremendously large, some of some of them are freaks like in the in the cameras.
Mr. Producer pulled up the composition of a typical feral hogs, wild pigs.
So they eat animals and they eat algae.
And eighty eight, eighty eight percent plants, 10 percent animals. Interesting.
And then the rest of its fungus, algae and other materials.
Well, their omnivores is what it is.
You ever watch Deadwood? No.
There it's a old western town and they had a Chinese guy had pigs.
So we had a pig pen. And that's where they would get rid of the bodies because the pigs would eat everything.
Yeah, including the bones. That is the kind of down there.
We have to get rid of, you know, get rid of a body.
They said because the pigs will eat them and they eat all of it.
Probably probably pretty quickly, too. Yeah.
So I write that down if we ever have a body to get rid of feed it to the pigs.
We have we don't have any pigs, though.
That's a problem with the backyard.
And you can get a agricultural exemption.
You know, I am we went to Total Wine.
And thank you, Kevin, for allowing us to pick up this bottle of Jim Beam.
I'm sorry. What's the name of it? Hardin's Creek.
Hardin's Creek from a Jacobs well.
And this was apparently a unicorn.
Well, it was a difficult one to buy or find for sure.
And it's 15 years.
This is definitely a sipping one.
I am on the fence right now.
I'm trying to I haven't drank that much and I think my taste buds might be a little fucked up, too.
But I I smell smoked.
I smell Pete. I smell some.
I don't pick any of that up.
I'm not wowed, but I'm not disappointed either.
Is it really 15 years? Is that what it says on the bottle?
Oh, this is a combination of a 15 and a 16 year old.
I thought he said it was 18 and a 16.
Maybe that's what it was. Really? Yeah.
So that that's what this is. It's a blend of.
No, it is. It's a 15 year old high rye and 16 year old traditional bourbon.
Right. It's not cheap either.
No, no, it was walk out the door.
One fifty one fifty one sixty ish.
Damn. So the nose smells extremely good.
Very sweet. I saw your your fucking zeal and 99 cents.
It's like you son of a bitch.
Yeah. So this this nose says a cornucopia of rich sense introduces the bourbon sweet caramel cinnamon sticks, light nutmeg,
baking spice and rice spice are all present. I can you know what?
And you say it, it's all there.
Everything you just said is it's all there. It is spicy.
It's one hundred and nine proof. And it's not that strong.
It's not. Well, I mean, that's not weak either.
But I would I would say it's pretty smooth for being one hundred and nine.
It's got that you could definitely taste the right.
The rise paramount. And
I just have it taken a bunch of polls.
I'm going to took one sip. So probably what we need to do probably need to drink.
I think it's all right. It's good.
Is it rank as good as some of the ones we've had recently?
I don't think so. Yeah.
So this is a Jim Beam product, right?
Yeah. Jim Beam. James Bebeam distilling.
Right. So it says the palette.
It's classic bourbon. So it's Jim Beam. Right.
So it's that classic bourbon notes with a focus on more aged flavors,
aged oak, dried raisins, light dried leather and spicy rye flavors.
It's like it's like some sort of raisin little undertone there.
You know, when I took it down and Julie always likes try the new ones.
She said she smelled bananas foster.
I don't know what bananas fosters are is that's where the flaming bananas on the
when they come out.
And they put some bourbon or some rum or something.
OK, I can see that little plantain kind of.
Yeah, I will say this.
I smelled absolutely no ethanol in the nose or in the taste.
It is definitely smooth.
Yeah, it's definitely it's off.
Definitely got some bite to it.
I think the nose is outstanding on this.
Yeah, with my one good nostril.
Yeah.
But again, I'll stick to my I'll stick to my assessment that I wasn't wowed,
but not disappointed.
It's just kind of if I were to give it a score, I'd give it like a six six point six.
Wow. I think so.
Six eight six six eight to seven maybe.
I don't know. Nothing wrong with it.
Nothing wrong with it at all.
You know, for the price point, I want to disagree with you,
but I can't.
And the reason why I want to disagree with you is I'm thinking maybe we're not good enough to appreciate this.
I don't know.
These are our rankings.
Yeah.
We're not professionals or whatever.
We know what we like.
We don't like.
Well, but we've drank a lot of bourbon.
Yeah, so we have some respect.
Well, we have some we're comparing it to what we know.
Right. So we've had some really good shit.
Yeah, I would say what would you say?
Six eight six six six.
I'm I'm like six point nine.
Yeah. We're right.
Right. Right. And there all of us are.
Yeah. I don't want to give it a seven because that's not fair because I've had sevens.
Yeah. And this is like I said, there's nothing wrong with it.
It's not like we would like if somebody offered it to us, we'd be like, oh, God, what is this?
But but I'm glad we have it, though.
But to buy another bottle at one hundred fifty bucks, I'd pass.
Yeah. No.
Likely. Yeah.
That's good to have because it's good. But one hundred fifty bucks. Good.
No, especially appreciative of having the opportunity to get it.
Yeah. Yeah. Again.
Well, thank you. It's nice to get the unicorns.
The hard ones to find. It's just like Blanton's. Right.
So everybody wants plans, but it's kind of a bland, a generic bourbon.
Right. Yeah. It should be called bland.
Yeah. So it's not the greatest bourbon, but everybody wants it.
So sought after. Right. Yeah. It's kind of silly.
I you know, I was talking to some folks today about bourbon and you know, I didn't realize.
I mean, I don't know near as much as Jeff does about our inventory,
but I felt totally within my my means to be able to chat with these these two guys.
I mean, I was kind of crank a lot. We've tried a lot of bourbon.
It's the it's the process of going about because they're kind of like, I don't even know where to start.
And, you know, my my thought is and some of the dudes like us out there that are interested on where do you start with this thing?
You know, well, it's really on budget. Well, figure out how much you want to spend and you to start buying some.
Well, you figure out what you like. There are different flavors.
So I mean, the rye side and then it gravitates over to the wheat side.
It's it's basically, you know, those those two sides of it and most people that start off per Bob Petit Petit Petit,
Petit probably from Lous Crossing.
You know, he shared that most of folks that start off really appreciate some of the weed weeded stuff, which is exactly what we did.
It's a little softer. Yeah. So the weeded stuff is a little bit more easier to drink.
It's a smooth, smooth. Yeah. And as you start climbing that ladder, you start introducing some of the other stuff.
And, you know, if you introduce it early, you're not going to like it.
Like we didn't like the ride. We're like, oh, it's so bad. It's good.
Paul must have picked this again.
Do you think coconut?
Yeah. But I guess now we probably would appreciate them a little bit more.
Yeah. But that's my take. Well, it's also proof.
I believe you don't want to jump into one hundred and twenty proof.
I don't think so either. I think that was part of the conversation, too.
Yeah. You have to kind of, you know, build your build it up.
Start at the 80s, graduate to the 90s.
He showed me a picture of a Jack Daniels bottle that his wife had purchased for him and it was about one hundred and twenty proof.
And it's like, man, I wanted I'm glad I have it.
But it's so strong. And I was just like, well, you know, you want to single barrel.
I mean, yes, it's one of those those Jack Daniels.
Yeah, I got you. You just you don't drink this to get drunk. You drink it to enjoy.
Yeah. Right. So I was just like, look, you pour it in a glass just a little bit and then you take the if it's too strong, then you take a lighter sip.
If that's not working and you're simply just not enjoying it, then go get yourself a little bottle of distilled water and add an ounce to the glass.
Any water, really? Yeah. Well, leave it out. Just a few drops.
Oh, just a few drops. Yeah. Yeah.
I told him, you know, I made a difference between the distilled water and regular water because distilled water doesn't have minerals in it.
You know, you actually want limestone water. So you do want minerals in it.
Well, if it's limestone. Yes. Yeah. But where the hell you get that? You're not going to get that on the tap.
You get that from Amazon. You get bottles of it.
Now, distilled water is probably preferred. I mean, unless you don't want sink water with fluoride.
No, no. In fact, that fluoride is, you know, it can be any it can be reverse osmosis water. It's absolutely fine.
Yeah. Use bottled water. Oh, no. But in the perfect world, I'm saying why else would they want you to have distilled water in your cubes?
You know, is to keep it clear. Perfectly clear. Yes. That's one.
And number two, probably the clear is number two. The number one is that it has no minerals.
That's the number one reason. But the minerals add flavors.
Well, they add flavors that comes out of the tap. And some of those flavors just simply aren't desirable.
Especially here at Frisco, man. We get some ass smelling certain times a year where they're cleaning everything.
Yes. That's something else. De-alegifying and stuff. That's something else that really grinds my gears.
And I wish they would they would stop. But, you know, somebody's in the back pocket of somebody.
And always, you know, when you look at the the history of where does fluoride come from,
it comes from an extremely poisonous plant and they have to do a bunch of shit to it.
And then they introduce it to the water because they thought it was a good idea.
Well, it may it may be a good idea on some levels, but to have the government come in there
and add fluoride to the water should be criminal because fluoride doesn't do good things to you.
So fluoride eats the enamel on your teeth. One, two, it's supposed to be stronger.
It doesn't. It depreciates. Yeah. It depreciates the marrow in your bones.
It doesn't make sense. I mean, it's one of the things they push every time.
Some folks will have seizures. Bad for your teeth. It yellows your teeth.
Why would a dentist push it? It's it doesn't make sense. It doesn't make any sense at all.
A dentist doesn't do that anymore. Does yours still do that?
Well, they know I decline it. So they don't ask.
They don't. I've never been asked at the new dentist I go to.
They have never asked if I want fluoride. What is that?
That a little red shit you put on your mouth and you smile? No, no.
They just give you a little cup and they want you to to spit it out.
I thought that was sepulchral. Yeah, I didn't realize it was so like hardcore.
Well, I remember reason number two hundred fifty eight.
Why we don't have video. I remember as a child going to the dentist
and they'd have these mouthpieces and they would fill them up with the gel.
Oh, that's right. Oh, to get an imprint.
No, they'd filled up with fluoride gel.
They go, do you want bubble gum, strawberry or blueberry?
And they fill the stuff up and they stick them in your teeth.
All right. Now we need to keep them there for 10 minutes.
And you're sitting there with these these mouthpieces and with this fluoride gel.
I'm trying to think doing whatever it's doing to your teeth.
I don't remember that. Oh, yeah. Every time I went, I would do that.
I'm getting bubble gum today. Yeah.
Well, you know, the best thing about me going to the dentist was that when you leave the office,
they usually give you like some sort of sucker or a sticker or some sort of they're like a little treasure chest.
Oh, yeah. You need to pick the best thing in the God bless the planet.
Yeah. No, yeah. The dentist wasn't that bad.
I've had some bad experiences going to the dentist.
I went when I lived in Colorado Springs, I went to the dentist, had a filling put in,
numbed my mouth, went home and my mouth was still numb.
And I literally bit a hole in my lip.
So bad, I had to go back to the dentist and they had to fucking sew it up.
Wow. I bit an incredible chunk out.
And I remember because I spit it on the ground and it was the size of a marble.
And I still feel it today. The little scar tissue, the little part right in the corner here.
And they almost had to take out like a quarter.
I mean, it was it was it was a big deal. How did you manage to do that?
Man, I just didn't understand what was going on.
And I bit my lip and I couldn't feel it. And I didn't understand.
Well, you know how sometimes inside your mouth, you have a certain layer, the outer layer inside your mouth that is dead.
And it has no feeling. You can actually bite some of your inside your cheek. It's not a big deal.
I can understand if you did like wisdom teeth surgery or something like that, but just a regular dentist.
They numb the shit out of it that much.
They went. Yeah, they did, because I didn't feel anything. I went back to the dentist.
Did they knock you out and do other things to you? Like butthole things?
Oh, I'm not a deer. What the hell?
Did you say butthole? Yeah, he did. Huh.
Well, you were alluding to it. Was I?
Yeah, so I was just clarifying for the audience.
None of that happened at all, but clarifying.
What does butthole mean? It's butthole.
It is kind of odd that they did numb my whole mouth.
And when I went back to get the stitches, they still didn't have to numb it.
It was that fucking numb. They were like, can you feel this? No. Can you feel this? No.
And they were just like, and they were done like in five minutes.
And I walked out and my dad was like, I remember him looking at me, shaking his head. He was just like, yeah, he didn't say anything.
He was probably all swollen and drooling.
But I was, man, and I don't recall it really hurting at all.
But it was just one of those moments.
You know, that's that's what I remember.
I don't know if any dudes like us out there did that. But God bless.
And then did you pick up your chunk of meat, put it on ice or milk and then take it to him and says, can you sew this back on?
No. Yeah, I think a neighborhood dog came by and lit that up pretty quick.
You grilled it up?
I sous vide it. Put some cayenne pepper.
I have had way too much teeth gum issues to ever.
We had gum grafts, you said, right?
Yes. God, you are.
You've had all kinds of shit going on in that.
What happened? Implants.
You know what? Bad teeth.
I don't know. Was it bad teeth or was it the lack of taking care of them?
I mean, he didn't have fluoride over in Indonesia.
Yeah, they didn't have.
Well, you know, well, whatever, man.
You know, it's just I mean, to go back on the fluoride, the government imposing some of their rain and their control on you and some of the stuff they do.
You know, like the fortified vitamin D milk and the calcium, you know, like if you say bones, I've got a deficiency in my bones.
And what are you going to tell me to take? What kind of vitamin?
Zinc.
C. Calcium.
Oh, damn, he's right.
Just think about it. Calcium, right? But what is the what is the what are bones made of?
They're made of of like 12, 12 different minerals.
I mean, it's it's manganese, it's magnesium, calcium, there's iron.
There's there's a whole laundry list.
And when you take that calcium, your body actually has to has to process that calcium.
And it actually does worse for you by it's just my point is, is that some of these these doctors that prescribe these things, you know, that shit is no longer these age old assumptions.
Yeah, that stuff is not good for you anymore.
We need to grow up and grow out of these things.
You know, our bodies are more deficient.
Our bodies in general, got magnesium on the whole entire planet are almost all the human beings on the planet are deficient in magnesium.
What does magnesium do for you?
Magnesium does a lot.
Good for keeping the gang up.
Well, it does a lot for your muscles.
It does a lot for your cells.
It does a lot for your circulation.
Magnesium allows the water to get into the cells sometimes.
Well, a lot of times it does a lot.
They take a magnesium supplement.
I do specifically.
I don't take that.
I take a cow mag supplement.
Yes.
Calcium, magnesium.
Yes.
Magnesium.
Well, I mean, and who am I?
I don't know.
Don't I look amazing?
I'm not a doctor.
Could you tell the difference between the before and after type of thing?
Absolutely not.
No, I'm still fucking.
That's what always questions me.
I know.
I was just like.
How much of this stuff that we're taking.
I mean, there are some people that, I mean, I'm one of them.
I loaded up on so many pills.
Like every day was like, you know, 10 different bottles and, you know, E and A and C.
Chromium picolate.
Everything.
Zinc.
That's kind of where I'm at.
I mean, today I take literally I take 13 pills.
Right.
Every single day.
Right.
And it's just like, and it's kind of comical because when I come out, I have this like little
tray, you know, like a serving tray for your dinner.
Yeah.
I have a tray.
I bring it out and it's like some sort of honorary.
I got music playing.
And I open up my little Monday through Sunday.
Yeah.
Little flip thing.
And the amount of money we spend per month on supplements and we, you don't really even
know if it.
Is it doing anything?
If it's doing anything.
I will tell you this though.
You guys remember when I had some sort of inflammation on my hands where it was chronically
itch.
It was deficient at something.
Well, I got my blood work and I don't recall exactly what it was.
I think it was vitamin B too.
Was it chromium?
Yeah.
No.
Well, whatever.
It was, it was.
So the, the, the.
Thalonium.
First of all, I don't know.
Let's start there.
I don't know.
I remember that I looked at my, my blood work and I looked at all the things I was deficient
at and I bought supplements to compensate for that.
And two or three days after I started that regiment, my hands cleared up.
Remember that it was like, it was, they were dry.
Oh yeah.
And I was constantly putting salve on it, you know, and.
Masturbate all the time because it itched.
Yeah.
That was the only reason.
That didn't happen.
That was, that was.
Didn't happen at all.
That's why he's like, that's why I'm doing it four times a day.
Whoa.
That's weird.
I mean, I guess the shaft helps.
Whoa.
Wow.
That's what you said.
Are you feeling okay?
He's just coming out, just coming out firing, man.
I'm going to have to take an alpha brain.
Well, the, the supplements, the supplements, sometimes I'm like, I need to start doing
it.
I need to start doing it.
But then at the time I'm like.
Could be throwing money away.
Does it, does it really matter?
Like I'm taking turmeric now for anti-inflammatory to help with the shoulders and stuff, right?
Turmeric.
It's turmeric.
It's turmeric for the rest of the population.
Where is that thing where it goes, turmeric.
Is it turmeric or turmeric?
Where you push the button, turmeric.
Turmeric.
So, you know, I'm taking that and, and, you know, is it doing anything?
I don't know.
You know, I have.
We spend so much money on supplements.
I take, I take, cause my shoulders are so bad and I, and I take joint supplements and
I'm like, is that doing anything?
I still wake up with sore shoulders.
The conjoined, conjoined.
I've done that and I've, and I've tried that and I've, now I'm on to like a joint.
It's got a bunch of shit in there and I'm like, if I stopped this, am I going to, cause
I still wake up with sore shoulders.
Are you having a drink with Insurer?
No, I'm not taking that yet.
Not yet anyway.
Yeah.
Well dudes like us are kind of old and we need to watch it.
I think it's worth it.
I wouldn't really.
It's hard to know.
I look, the thing is I, I want to make those decisions on what I'm putting in my body
and it really bothers me that the government is putting something that's clearly argumentative
in our water.
And it's also supposedly dumbing down people.
I want to just come a point where they stop doing that.
Chlorine and fluoride by the way.
Well chlorine, you got to do it to disinfect the water, sanitize the water.
Yeah.
But there's, there's methods out there to filter that stuff out.
I'm just going to.
Just kind of a big reverse osmosis.
That'd be pricey.
Yeah, plus the, well whatever.
But there are other ways to sanitize it.
That is true.
