1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,000
All right, this is officially our second episode of our fifth season.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Yes.

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000
And it's officially winter.

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,000
It's officially cold as a damn cold.

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,000
It's cold outside, man.

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Yes.

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,000
It's January 16th, 2024.

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Dude, it's like a moment here.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,000
Welcome to the podcast.

10
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,000
We've got a great show lined up today.

11
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,000
I'm Paul.

12
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,000
And I am Joe.

13
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,000
It's 25 degrees outside.

14
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,000
It was eight yesterday.

15
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Eight.

16
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Eight.

17
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000
It may be 25 now, but it was like 10, 12 this morning.

18
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,000
As cold.

19
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:40,000
Yeah.

20
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000
I've been taking my wife to work in the morning.

21
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:51,000
And you know, strange enough, I chose to walk over to Jeff's house, at least partially.

22
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,000
I was cooped up in the house.

23
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,000
I work from home.

24
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000
So I was like, yeah, I need a little fresh air.

25
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
I pulled up next to him and he opens the door.

26
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,000
And I'm like, we've been doing this for four and a half years or five years.

27
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,000
You've never gotten a head start and started walking.

28
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Except on the coldest end here.

29
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Yeah, it's 20 degrees and you decide to do this.

30
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,000
I got a lot of stuff going on in this brain.

31
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:17,000
I felt it therapeutic to walk a little bit before I got here.

32
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Certainly brisk.

33
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,000
That's for sure.

34
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,000
And it was cold.

35
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:25,000
But what I was getting at is walking down the street, I noticed like several houses

36
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,000
that had water coming out of them.

37
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,000
Coming out of them?

38
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,000
Really?

39
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,000
There's already burst pipes?

40
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Yeah, there's burst pipes.

41
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,000
I mean, a lot of people will note that there's like faucets that don't work.

42
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,000
That's because some of the plumbing gets jammed up.

43
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:48,000
But on worst case scenarios, those plumbing parts that get clogged up,

44
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,000
once that ice starts to really form, man, it expands.

45
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,000
It's the hard freeze warning, right?

46
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:03,000
I will tell you, through my job, I have seen some spectacular stuff that ice can do.

47
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Like Dallas, for example, the city of Dallas has a plant where they process water.

48
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,000
And they distribute it.

49
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,000
It's like in the Highland Park area.

50
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,000
Like they pull the poop out?

51
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Like a sewage plant.

52
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,000
I don't think they manage like sanitary water like that.

53
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
I think what they do is they just have water that's coming in from a stream or a fresh area.

54
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000
Like runoff, maybe?

55
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Like rain runoff?

56
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,000
It's water that's channeled there strategically.

57
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,000
So they've got these avenues that the water gets.

58
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,000
So the plant will take the water and it puts them into these large vats in a process.

59
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,000
It puts it through filters and stuff.

60
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,000
And what I'm striving at is that these pipes are 24 inches, 3 foot in diameter.

61
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,000
And they're big boy pipes.

62
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,000
They're super thick.

63
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000
They've got bolts that they got like 50 rivets around this motherfucker.

64
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,000
And that thing was split open like a coconut.

65
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Oh wow.

66
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,000
From ice.

67
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,000
It's amazing what Mother Nature can do.

68
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Half inch thick steel or iron or whatever.

69
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000
It's crazy.

70
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
Mother Nature is crazy.

71
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,000
It's absolutely bone.

72
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:25,000
It just took me back to it's hard to fathom that something like that can happen from water freezing.

73
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,000
Have you ever seen the Great Lakes?

74
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,000
There's like an ice pile up when there's like heavy winds during winter.

75
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,000
And it stacks up this big gigantic...

76
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
Like iceberg-y type things?

77
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,000
Small icebergs.

78
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,000
And it's the same type of thing.

79
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,000
It's just incredibly destructive.

80
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,000
And we think that we can control the climate.

81
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Oh yeah, we totally do.

82
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,000
And impact it.

83
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,000
You're so stupid.

84
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,000
It kinda is.

85
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,000
Oh, it's global warming.

86
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Bitch please.

87
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,000
It doesn't look like global warming to me, you fucktards.

88
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:02,000
Yeah, Julie, where she works, they had a couple pipes burst in the ceiling right at the front of the building.

89
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,000
And it just flooded the whole front office all the way down and there's water.

90
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,000
At the CTE Center, huh?

91
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Yeah.

92
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,000
Wow.

93
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,000
That's expensive.

94
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,000
Yeah.

95
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,000
And you know, I will tell you...

96
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,000
And we pay for that, right?

97
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,000
If there's insurance, yeah, sure.

98
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000
The insurance will cover it.

99
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,000
But there's a lot of moving parts to that.

100
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,000
Like there's a lot of pipes that burst from fire suppression systems.

101
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,000
Those are kind of the big heavy hitters.

102
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,000
Because a lot of times those things will be put somewhere where the area's not climatized.

103
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,000
Like there are specific rules that kind of are forgotten.

104
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,000
They're the first to get frozen and ruptured, yeah.

105
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,000
They're kind of forgotten.

106
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,000
It's kind of like, hey, you know, they got the fire suppression systems up in the attic or above, right below the roof lines.

107
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,000
And the contractors forget that they need to climatize that.

108
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
They got to like wrap it in, you know, foam.

109
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,000
Yeah, well, they got to...

110
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Well, there needs to be some sort of a radiant barrier of some sort to maintain the integrity climatically in that little area.

111
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Because when it freezes, those joints pop.

112
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,000
That's another amazing thing because those pipes are super thick too.

113
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,000
And those things are just being contorted like they're freaking starburst candies, you know.

114
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000
It's amazing.

115
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,000
The power of nature.

116
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000
And the pressure of water that comes out of those.

117
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Yeah.

118
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,000
So my question is this.

119
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:30,000
How come the houses here in North Texas are not built to accommodate for the cold?

120
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000
It gets cold like this every year.

121
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000
There may be one winter where it doesn't get down to eight.

122
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,000
But how come the houses up in Wisconsin and Chicago don't burst?

123
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,000
Yeah, because they don't want to...

124
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,000
It's not code, for one thing.

125
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,000
And if it's not code, then certainly home builders are not going to go the extra cost, right?

126
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000
Yeah, that's kind of what it is.

127
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
And there's cutting corners is one.

128
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,000
And there's also where you put the pipes.

129
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:03,000
A lot of times in the northern states, they won't have pipes on the exterior of the building or the perimeter of the building.

130
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Meaning that if there's a bathroom, they keep it all within the envelope of the house and not that outside wall.

131
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Where I grew up, that was the case.

132
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Yeah.

133
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,000
Because I have two.

134
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:22,000
Whenever it gets this cold, I have two areas in the house and they're both externally facing my externally facing sink, my sink.

135
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,000
You know, the cold water stops.

136
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000
And then the toilet right next to it.

137
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:34,000
So if we were to build another house, we want to say no outside faucets or pipes.

138
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Well, you won't have like a spigot, you know, for...

139
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Well, no, I mean inside.

140
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Like you don't want your kitchen sink.

141
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,000
Like yours is on a wall.

142
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,000
Mine's right. And it never has any problems, which is interesting.

143
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Typically, you know, but it does happen.

144
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,000
Under the slab leaks are, you know, that happens.

145
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,000
I mean, look, leaks happen.

146
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,000
It's unfortunate, but water is devastating, too.

147
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,000
That's what I mean. Why don't they change the code? They know it happens every year.

148
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,000
People you hear just crazy shit happen with all their pipes.

149
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,000
What the February freeze was catastrophic.

150
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Well, that was bad.

151
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Two years ago.

152
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,000
But every year it does this.

153
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,000
That was like tens of thousands of...

154
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:13,000
Because that was compounded with the power being out and nobody had the ability to heat up.

155
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:21,000
And you know what's fucked up about that whole experience is the money that it costs to do all those repairs that the insurance companies had to pay for.

156
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,000
You know, you're kind of pointing fingers at who's to blame for this.

157
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000
And then the ERCOP is kind of like, hey, what's this?

158
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,000
But guess what? We're a municipality.

159
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,000
So you can't suck this fuck off.

160
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:35,000
Well, their whole board quit after that whole thing.

161
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Like literally like six of them.

162
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,000
They were all like, hey, we're done here.

163
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,000
So they didn't want to tab on that.

164
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,000
We are. So you wonder why your insurance is going up.

165
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,000
It's because of that.

166
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,000
That's part of that. Right.

167
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,000
You know, probably. Yeah.

168
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,000
They're going to get their money back somehow.

169
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Oh, yeah. They're not going to lose money.

170
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,000
And I listened to the news before it got cold here.

171
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,000
So last Friday, maybe.

172
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:58,000
And Greg Abbott was on making an announcement saying, hey, there's cold coming up.

173
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000
We got plenty of power.

174
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,000
There are two days because we got wind power back up.

175
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,000
But there are going to be two periods.

176
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:12,000
And I'm making this up Monday at noon from noon to three.

177
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Like they already knew that.

178
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,000
Yeah.

179
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,000
So because they see the weather patterns like what there's going to be no wind power from like noon to three on Monday.

180
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,000
Wind power. God.

181
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:30,000
And on Tuesday. So they're like during those times we have reserve energy, but we may ask you to.

182
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,000
Not when you're washing machine during that period. Correct.

183
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:38,000
So my thing is we can't rely on this renewable energy because it's unreliable.

184
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,000
That's right. Because you have your wind stops.

185
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,000
You have to make accommodations for it.

186
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,000
You have to plan and you're out of energy unless you have a coal backup somewhere.

187
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,000
Right. Yeah.

188
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:52,000
You know, during that period, I just ran my washer washing machine empty.

189
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,000
I just ran it. Right.

190
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,000
So, I mean, there's other kind of tricks.

191
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:00,000
I'm going to call it tricks, but there's like little things that you get circulating pumps for.

192
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,000
I mean, they already sell those.

193
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:08,000
Like, for example, if you are if you have part of your house where it takes forever for the hot water to get to.

194
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,000
Oh, I hate that. Yes. Tell me how to fix that. I hate it.

195
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,000
It's called a circulating pump. So really you go to the farthest end.

196
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:19,000
I thought it was an Insta hot thing. Insta pot. No, not Insta pot. Oh.

197
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,000
All right. So that's just the source. The water is hot.

198
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,000
So that has nothing to do unless you have it like right next to the sink with again and again.

199
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,000
No, the circulating pump is different. So circulating pump, you go to where it's at.

200
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:35,000
So you go to your sink and you you have those two. You have the hot and cold. Right. Right.

201
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:48,000
And you basically you unscrew the little things that go to the sink and then you tie one into the the cold into one side of the pump and you tie the hot into the other side of the pump.

202
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,000
And the pump has an output that it's got its own little heater.

203
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,000
So it's like putting a little water underneath your no, no, no, no.

204
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,000
So what it does, it takes the hot water and it shoves it into the cold water.

205
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,000
That's it. That's why they call it a circulating pump.

206
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,000
Like constantly. No, there's a timer.

207
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,000
Some of them are kind of sophisticated where you have Wi-Fi where you can say, hey, I want you to turn on.

208
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,000
Like if you get up, let's say you take a shower strategically every six, six thirty in the morning every single day.

209
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:20,000
Hey, I want you to turn on at six twenty. Circulated pump goes turns on.

210
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,000
OK, it turns out for like a couple of minutes.

211
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:28,000
So it's basically it's basically, you know, when you go to the sink and you put on hot water and then you walk off for five minutes.

212
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Yes. Ten minutes.

213
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,000
But doing that for you, but not wasting the water. Exactly.

214
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:37,000
And it's kind of interesting how it works. I mean, it's it's shoving the hot water into the cold side. Right.

215
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:42,000
You know, so basically if you're somewhere else in the house and you flip the cold water on, it might be a little it's going to be warm.

216
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:47,000
However, it won't stay warm for long because, you know, it's does that make sense?

217
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,000
Yeah, no, it totally makes sense. But I mean, but I'm not crazy.

218
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:56,000
I mean, I thought in the newer homes now they have like the, you know, the big thing that's like it's instant hot water.

219
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,000
All that is is it's a tankless water. It's a tankless water heater.

220
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Yeah. I mean, that's just another way of getting hot water.

221
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,000
It's not instant, though. It still has to run through your pipes.

222
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,000
Yeah. Really? Yeah.

223
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,000
But everybody who has one like touts how? Oh, yeah.

224
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,000
No, I know that problem anymore because, you know, I don't know.

225
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,000
I don't know. That's not true. That is nothing. Not true.

226
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:29,000
No, not at all. So like if you were to get a if you were to get a tankless water heater in your house and you were to do nothing else but get the tankless water heater, it's still going to take the same amount of time for that hot water to get from point A to point B.

227
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,000
Very interesting. Because you can't. I mean, right.

228
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Because all it's doing is a different way of heating water is not making the water get through the pipe any faster. That's correct.

229
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:43,000
And, you know, it consumes a tremendous amount of natural gas.

230
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,000
Which is good. I like it.

231
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Well, it depends unless you're like in New York where they want to rule out gas natural gas.

232
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:55,000
Right now they're going after was it kitchen sink dishwashers.

233
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,000
When is it going to use you to allow to use like half a cup of water to clean your dishes and their dishwashers.

234
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,000
When is this going to stop? When Biden gets out.

235
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,000
And he needs to get out.

236
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Iowa was a big step in that direction.

237
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Well, we're going to do this real quick. Going back to the windmills.

238
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,000
Those are, you know, those are ecological and they don't use fuels.

239
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Well, they take 80 gallons of oil a year.

240
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:27,000
Yeah, it's a ridiculous amount of oil that it takes to lubricate the engines.

241
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,000
Yeah, but that's made from bio biofuel.

242
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,000
That's from dinosaur shit. Oh, well, that doesn't sound right.

243
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,000
You know, so 80 get each one of those.

244
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,000
You got to Lubbock all those 80 gallons.

245
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,000
It's 80 gallons. 80 barrels in it.

246
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,000
Well, they said 80 gallons.

247
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,000
Who's they? The news on the radio.

248
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,000
Unless they read it wrong.

249
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,000
So I have no way of knowing if that's a lot or not, because I mean,

250
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:00,000
when you consider how much energy they produce versus how much oil they need to stay operational.

251
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,000
Does one of those produce a lot? I have no idea.

252
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,000
I just think they're obscene. They're obnoxious.

253
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,000
And I can't imagine that people who built their retirement home, you know, like out in the country.

254
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,000
And now what they look at is like 4000 of these stupid windmills.

255
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,000
I can't imagine they're happy about it.

256
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,000
Well, it's just like over on the East Coast. Right.

257
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,000
So they want to put they put these windmills in the ocean.

258
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,000
Well, they're backing off of that now.

259
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,000
Well, they are because it's killing whales. Well, that too.

260
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,000
But the Kennedys didn't want to look at them.

261
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:33,000
You know, they're big like one. If you remember, what was his name? Robert Kennedy,

262
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,000
the guy who killed the chicken chip aqua, whatever that place was.

263
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:42,000
No, Senator Kennedy, Ted Kennedy, Ted Kennedy, Robert Kennedy. OK.

264
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,000
You know, he was big proponent for clean energy.

265
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,000
But they're like, you know, we're going to put this wind farm out there like no.

266
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,000
Yeah, I want to see it.

267
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,000
I want clean energy, but just not where I am.

268
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,000
NIMBY, not in my backyard. Right. Right.

269
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,000
So nauseating. It is.

270
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,000
So plus it's they're fearing with whale migration.

271
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,000
Because I guess those produce some kind of ultrasonic sound.

272
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,000
I tell you what, causing whale problem.

273
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:13,000
And I find it so interesting when the left the leftist environmental groups turn on each other.

274
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:18,000
It's just like the Sierra Sierra, Nevada Sierra Sierra Club Sierra Club,

275
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:24,000
when all the birds were getting killed by the by the windmills out in the rural areas.

276
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,000
I mean, eagles and falcons and hawks.

277
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:30,000
I mean, by the thousands, you know, torn up by these things.

278
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,000
I don't know. Did they solve that problem or do they just pay them to go away?

279
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,000
The Sierra Club. I don't know.

280
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,000
Do they put like a big fan cover over it like you? Yeah, they did.

281
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,000
In your house. Yeah. Yeah.

282
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:49,000
There's there's a mesh. There's a style of windmill that is far better to use than the current ones that we have.

283
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,000
Like a corkscrew. Yes.

284
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:58,000
So there are pylons that basically instead of having these huge propellers stretched out,

285
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:05,000
these things are literally like three feet wide and go up 10 foot and they just spin on a cylinder.

286
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:11,000
Why wouldn't they do that? Well, there's that looks like a new wind turbine design.

287
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,000
Look at that. That was Tom out. Yeah. Yep. Yep.

288
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:22,000
So those things are supposed to be far more efficient and don't require 700 gallons of oil a day a year.

289
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:28,000
Are they are they degradable, biodegradable because the big ones are not.

290
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000
I don't know. I don't know. We talked about that.

291
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:36,000
There's like huge we did talk about that where they're burying the blades in the salt mines.

292
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,000
Yeah. But yeah, the nuclear, the nuclear waste.

293
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,000
But those are they biodegradable? I don't know.

294
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:47,000
Probably not. I would assume that they're just like the other ones, except that they're not so tremendous.

295
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Those almost look metallic. I don't know if they are.

296
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:56,000
Well, I think they just look like drill bits. It's German engineering and they're ingenious.

297
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:03,000
In fact, they've got a couple that will literally like they'll do in a tremendous amount of energy for your house.

298
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,000
Put that on my roof. Yeah, they're not.

299
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,000
It only looks like it's 200 feet tall. No, I don't.

300
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,000
True. I don't know how tall those are, but they've had some small.

301
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:15,000
I think that's a dude standing right there on the right on the picture.

302
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:20,000
Oh, yeah. Oh, OK. So it's not as OK. It's not as big as what I was thinking then.

303
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,000
No. Well, whatever. I mean, they're cool, though.

304
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,000
So we're talking about alternatives in better, better alternative.

305
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,000
They're better and they don't take up all the oil.

306
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,000
I mean, I mean, because those other ones take an absurd amount of oil.

307
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:37,000
They really do. Seventy gallons. I mean, I'm looking at 700 gallons.

308
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,000
Those don't take any kind of oils. I don't know. I'm sure they do.

309
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:47,000
But I'm also they also are balanced on some sort of.

310
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:53,000
I mean, I don't know. I mean, they're balanced, though. The science of it is that they're kind of on a pivot.

311
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,000
What's it called? Pivoting on a little like a top.

312
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:01,000
You know how a spinning top can spin for quite some time.

313
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Interesting. Whatever. Again, I think they should design giant balls that go, gung, gung, gung, gung.

314
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:12,000
They're in my beds. I mean, that's just that's the way to generate limitless energy.

315
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,000
Actually, you know, we talked about this before, but fusion is making leaps and bounds, man.

316
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,000
It's coming. I think it's going to happen in our lifetime.

317
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:26,000
I think they'll have not a working reactor, but they will they will prove that it's scalable within our lifetime.

318
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,000
I have fusion. That's incredible.

319
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,000
You know, it's going to it's going to solve all these problems.

320
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:38,000
Well, it's it's only going to create new ones because we're about we're all the fossil fuel businesses,

321
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,000
you know, all the people that own all the fossil fuel businesses, they're going to be all been out of shape.

322
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,000
You buy all the fusion. Fuck that. Well, yeah, but these are but these are going to be for power generation.

323
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:53,000
These are nuclear fusion, nuclear fusion power plants.

324
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:57,000
It's not going to be to run your car. I don't think. Well, I mean, that's a good point.

325
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Why not? Well, at some point. I mean, back in the future, that's what he had.

326
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:04,000
Yeah. He put banana peels in his fusion reactor. That's true.

327
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,000
Yeah, that is true. So some old tampons and toilet paper.

328
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,000
Oh, yeah. I don't know about tampons. I just whatever was lying around in the garbage can.

329
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:16,000
Yeah, he did. He just kind of took the lid off the garbage and started dumping shit in there.

330
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,000
And it's funny if you pull like one nasty old sock.

331
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,000
Would it would it be awesome? Just well open.

332
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,000
Fine. I don't know about that in the movies.

333
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,000
It was like that's my he's holding by the string.

334
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:32,000
He's like, come on, Doc. That's my condom.

335
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:38,000
I'm not again. She's anyway.

336
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Well, you know what? So the we're going on the energy thing that they yeah, those women are ridiculous.

337
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:49,000
And you're right. We're driving. I mean, I've you go to Lubbock when a lot when you go visit Brandon.

338
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:54,000
I travel out there and I hate seeing them. I don't I don't hate them.

339
00:18:54,000 --> 00:19:01,000
I don't hate them. But I'll tell you what, I had dinner at a at a restaurant, a little steak place out there by Amarillo.

340
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:07,000
And I was sitting at the bar and there was a group of four guys sitting right next to me.

341
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:13,000
And they were all windmill technicians, workers, engineers.

342
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:20,000
It's a business, I'm sure. Well, what he told me was like, he was like, I don't care what the really weird accent, man.

343
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:25,000
It was like Hungarian. No, he was like from Michigan, but had a country.

344
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:30,000
It was like backwards country, Michigan, that kind of Canadian a, you know, kind of thing.

345
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,000
So it was really odd. It was a mind bend. Yeah.

346
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,000
But it was like, well, never. I don't know. Hey, what was he saying?

347
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:41,000
What he was saying, it was ridiculous how inefficient those things were.

348
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,000
Oh, God. It's like, yes, they absolutely produce energy.

349
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,000
They do what they're supposed to do.

350
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:51,000
But the amount of money it takes to maintain those is absolutely ridiculous.

351
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:58,000
He was just like, we're four engineers. I'm not going to tell you how much we get paid, but it ain't worth it for the work that we do.

352
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:10,000
It's absolutely crazy. Just just it just crawls all over you because that just tells you that the reason for doing it is not because it's a superior way of generating electricity.

353
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:15,000
No, it's it's it's a bullshit. It's a scam. Guys, look what we did.

354
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,000
Aren't you proud of me? It's a scam. It's a virtue signal.

355
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:24,000
It's a virtue. Just like the just like I think a lot of folks do with the EVs who are having a lot of trouble now.

356
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,000
Right. During this cold stand. I know. So great.

357
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,000
I hate to I hate to like like like love their misery.

358
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,000
But so what was the story? Where were they in?

359
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:38,000
Maybe Michigan or Detroit or something. And they and they drove down to the.

360
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,000
Well, first of all, they couldn't charge. Were they not allowed to charge at their house?

361
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,000
They're allowed power. Correct.

362
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:50,000
So they're going down to the superchargers or the outdoor chargers where you go up and you pull up and sit for three hours and you charge your car.

363
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,000
Well, no, it's not supposed to be three hours. Well, it's not supposed to be like 40 minutes.

364
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,000
But they charged it for three hours and it didn't do anything.

365
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,000
Right. It's too cold to charge your car.

366
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:03,000
And there's like a graveyard of EV vehicle. They called it a graveyard of robots.

367
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,000
Just one person's comment. Yes.

368
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,000
This EVs are falling apart, dude. They are.

369
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,000
And the dealers are saying we're not losing any more money.

370
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:16,000
We're done with this. Well, did you hear that Hertz is selling 20,000 of them? Yes.

371
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,000
At a loss of twenty five million dollars.

372
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:31,000
It's not practical when businesses are losing money. It's not going to fly. Well, every time I go out to see my dad and I say I need a rental car, they always try to get me a Tesla.

373
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:39,000
Screw it. I always say no, because I'll be stranded. I know where I'm going and they don't have chargers down there.

374
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:50,000
No. Anywhere that I've seen. Right. So I mean, the only reason why they stay to float and have stayed afloat this long is because they are subsidized by the government.

375
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:56,000
Didn't they? I think they said that if they weren't subsidized, the cheapest one would be.

376
00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:03,000
Man, I don't want to throw out numbers that are totally bullshit, but I thought it was like 60,000 would be the cheapest that they would be.

377
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000
But it's got to be way more than that. That's how much they are now.

378
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:13,000
I think they are about 50,000 because there's Tesla's come out with some I say inexpensive, but for an EV, they're like in the 30s, I think.

379
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:25,000
Yeah. All right. Well, it'd be interesting to hear what the stat is on what they would be if it was a, you know, apples to apples, fair level playing field against a gasoline car.

380
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,000
Well, Ford has lost billions, billions. They allow that to happen.

381
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:36,000
Well, they lose 60,000 dollars a car when they sell it like EVs, EVs.

382
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,000
Just dumb. How do you how do you maintain that?

383
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:43,000
Well, and why would you even want to like what was the political motivation?

384
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,000
It's a virtue signal. Like, look at us. We're we're ahead of the game.

385
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,000
You can power your house off your Ford F-150.

386
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,000
And then they built them and there's this. It's a nice truck.

387
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Don't get me wrong. It is cool. But super heavy. Don't ever get into a fender bender with it.

388
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,000
Yeah, no shit. Well, you'll win if you're in the truck.

389
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:10,000
But there's problems with the truck, you know, and I see these videos where people like, I turned it in after six months or I tried towing something.

390
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:14,000
I made it 20 miles. It's not proven stuff like that.

391
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:19,000
And I see it being a government sponsored experiment. Correct.

392
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:29,000
It's all it is. And they're only going to get more expensive because what's what the government's looking at now, because right now they we pay for all the roads via our gas tax.

393
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:35,000
Right. Tesla's electric cars don't pay a gas tax because they don't they don't they don't pay.

394
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,000
They don't get fuel. That's right. And these cars are heavier.

395
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,000
And the way their tires are designed, it chews up the roads faster. Great.

396
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:55,000
So I have not heard that. Yes. So these are because because they're so heavy and the tires are a certain way they're chewing up the roads faster, but they're not paying into the fun to repair them, which only goes on to that.

397
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:01,000
That's kind of like, you know, I think. Well, whatever. I agree.

398
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:07,000
Everyone agrees. But it's just like it was bullshit. How are they going to how are they going to fix that?

399
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,000
I mean, they're going to have what I've heard. I don't know.

400
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:15,000
What I've heard is these governments are like, OK, well, if you have an EV, just like we have a registration every year, 70, 75 bucks.

401
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Well, EVs may be 300 bucks. Right. To make up that lost tax.

402
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,000
And then they won't buy them. That's what I mean. They're going to get more expensive. Right.

403
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:29,000
And they're already not buying them. Right. Even when they're subsidized, they're not buying them. Right.

404
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:46,000
And I saw a video a guy had a had a Tesla. Actually, though, he had a Rivian Rivian SUV or truck and he was doing a comparison between how much it cost him to supercharge his Rivian and or fill a comparable car up with gas.

405
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:51,000
So he was like, he's like, this has an equivalent of eight hundred fifty. Yeah. Total cost of ownership. Right.

406
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:59,000
So he's like a comparable. We get like maybe 15 miles a gallon. It's a big truck. Gas is now two dollars and fifty cents a gallon.

407
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:11,000
So he did all the math and for it, he put in 43 kilowatt hours in his truck and it got him ninety four miles.

408
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:21,000
And he did all the math and he goes, that's about 10 gallons of gas at two fifty because he put I think it cost him twenty five bucks. Right. Right.

409
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:26,000
For those forty three kilowatt hours. So he did all the math and the fuel.

410
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:32,000
So the electricity for twenty five bucks got him ninety three miles.

411
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:38,000
If you want to spend that same money on a car that got fifty thousand, he would have gotten one hundred and fifty miles.

412
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:48,000
Then he goes, all right, then he backtracked that he goes, OK, for me to get one hundred fifty miles out of an electric charge, it would cost me forty bucks instead of the twenty five.

413
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:55,000
So it's fifteen bucks more. So even the fuel is getting out of whack now.

414
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:07,000
Yeah. Cost wise. How do you put a price on the fact that he released point zero zero zero zero zero zero zero made the air better.

415
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:12,000
But his tires are coming apart. He's making the roads fall apart. I know I'm joking. It's not even destroying the roads.

416
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:19,000
Our roads already suck. Big difference from the environment. Our infrastructure of the United States is tattered.

417
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:26,000
Yeah. The roads are not being taken care of. They're not being fixed in a constructive manner.

418
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:33,000
I mean, look, look at the construction going on around Dallas, Fort Worth. It's it's kind of halted.

419
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:39,000
You know, have you seen like I mean, where are we at? I don't leave Frisco.

420
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:46,000
I'm with you. I kind of don't know what's going on down in Dallas. It's really sad. Well, I drive around.

421
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:53,000
Yeah, you get around much more than so. Yeah. And I kind of go out far to like a couple hours out and drive back.

422
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:57,000
It's just not a lot going on. You know, interesting.

423
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Well, why are you were you speculating? I'm just I don't think the money's there. The budget's not there for it.

424
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:13,000
I'm thinking that, you know, we're we're we're we're putting our money in other baskets, you know, kind of like Joe Biden passed the infrastructure bill.

425
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,000
What he calls the infrastructure bill. That's really not an infrastructure bill. It's a green energy bill.

426
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:22,000
Yeah. Well, you know, the structure to be to build and maintain roads and bridges, right?

427
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:29,000
He's just a piece of shit. You know, let's let's just be real. He's you know, he doesn't know what hats off to me.

428
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:35,000
I don't know. I mean, I want Donald Trump to be president, but at the same time, I don't want to I don't want to bring his attitude.

429
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:40,000
I want him to be president. I want his policies. God bless it. Everybody wants his policies.

430
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,000
It's going to be the Democrats. It's going to be a shit show, man.

431
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:48,000
It's going to be a shit show this whole year. It's going to be a show next year. I don't even trust the voting system.

432
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:56,000
I'm just kind of like, well, that's just it. We vote. So like, well, by the way, did you so they were going over some of the exit polls.

433
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,000
I don't know if this came from the exit poll, but it was Iowans.

434
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:07,000
How many of them thought that Biden won the election like fair and square?

435
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,000
And it was like 65 percent said that he didn't.

436
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:19,000
Sixty five percent said that he they didn't think he won the election fair and square, meaning they all believing that it was stolen. Right.

437
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,000
So crazy. But let's let's dig into that a little bit.

438
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:29,000
I mean, 65 percent. So does that mean the Democrats think that or do you believe that Republicans?

439
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:36,000
Yeah, yes. This this weekend was just Republican. The Iowans cock ass is just cock ass.

440
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:41,000
I'm not sure that's how they pronounce it. Yeah, I think that's a little tongue tied.

441
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,000
We're really excited about the cock asses this year.

442
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,000
How are you going to vote? Anyway, sorry. It's only Republican.

443
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:52,000
But what I did read was it always an hour. Sorry. It's the primary.

444
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,000
Yeah. But why? So is there another one? There's a bunch of them.

445
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,000
Every state, every state will have every state.

446
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:01,000
I was typically the first. But OK. And they call it. I was the first.

447
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:07,000
And then Vivek was like, I'm out. Well, he got he got less than 8 percent.

448
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:14,000
Well, still, he said he's out. So it is the very first litmus test for the whole the whole primary process.

449
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:18,000
Yeah. He was so far behind the other two. Yeah. You were so far behind Trump.

450
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:22,000
Yeah. He didn't come in second or third. And he's funding his own thing.

451
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,000
He's like, I've got a lot of time. I'll come back.

452
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,000
I was really surprised that DeSantis edged out Haley honestly.

453
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,000
Well, well, neither one of them are relevant. It doesn't matter. Right.

454
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:39,000
But I thought I was going to say is they were looking at one of the counties and.

455
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:45,000
The Democrats pushed a huge campaign to switch sides.

456
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:53,000
You can do that on on the day that you vote. And they did so many that Nikki Haley one by one vote in that county.

457
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:59,000
They had so many Democrats swat, swept side to kind of edge out DeSantis.

458
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,000
No, Trump. So, oh, she beat Trump in that county.

459
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,000
Yes. By one vote. Just one county, though. Yeah.

460
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:11,000
Because he trumps everywhere. Correct. So they're sneaky games.

461
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:16,000
That's a thing. Oh, yeah. So are they gerrymandering those votes as well?

462
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:21,000
No, it's not gerrymandering. It's so in the Iowa caucus, you're allowed to do it.

463
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,000
You're allowed to. It's supposed to be just it's the Republican primary.

464
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,000
So just registered Republicans are supposed to vote in it.

465
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,000
And Republicans are not supposed to Democrat primary.

466
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:35,000
The Democrats are not supposed to vote in the public, but they're they're shady. Right.

467
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,000
And they're shady on both sides, really. But Democrats Republicans do it, too.

468
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:48,000
Yeah, they'll do it, too. But and so in the Iowa caucus, you're allowed to on on the day that you vote can switch from Democrat to Republican.

469
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:53,000
But they they have they've used their vote now. They can't go vote in the Democrat caucus.

470
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,000
Yeah. Right. And that's and that's irrelevant because it's Biden.

471
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,000
Because yeah, because yeah, when you have an incumbent.

472
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:05,000
Well, I bet we see more of that this year than I see a lot more of the Democrats doing absolutely here.

473
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:16,000
Yeah. But then again, I mean, R.F.K. Junior and now Joe Manchin is threatening to join the no no titles party.

474
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:21,000
The no the third party. Yeah, it's a third party, but it's called the no no names.

475
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,000
No, no names or something called third party. No, no, they all have a name.

476
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:31,000
It's a particular it's the wigs. It's the no titles party or something like that.

477
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:39,000
Well, I remember 10, 15 plus years ago, Rush Limbaugh on his program says we need to instill Operation Chaos,

478
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:46,000
which was I don't know if it was the rush limbaugh said that Rush Limbaugh on his show.

479
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,000
So we need to launch Operation Chaos, which was this exact thing.

480
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Right. We're Republicans. We need to make sure I can't remember who it was.

481
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,000
Hillary Clinton doesn't get the the the nod.

482
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,000
So you need to switch sides and vote for whoever it was.

483
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,000
It's so shady, though, but I get it. But both sides do it.

484
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,000
Both sides do. And the and the Dems did it.

485
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,000
They in the in one county, they were able to organize very well and did it.

486
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,000
Yeah, they did it. No, no labels. No labels. That's it.

487
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:17,000
God, I'm sure. I'm sure one of our 35 listeners was like, no labels.

488
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,000
I haven't heard jack shit from him in a month or more.

489
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,000
JFK Junior. Yeah. R.F.K. Junior. Yeah.

490
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,000
Yeah. They probably had Jimmy the fish show up at his house.

491
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,000
Hey, you can't go with you. No, no, no. He's out there.

492
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,000
He's out there doing his thing. But I saw a lot of California.

493
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,000
I caught him. They took him off the ballot in California.

494
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:42,000
Yeah, something like that. But he made some headlines recently that were very inflammatory.

495
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:48,000
And then when you read what he was talking about, it wasn't so bad.

496
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:52,000
He was justified. Oh, he was justifying.

497
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:57,000
He was justifying. OK. So his father was R.F.K. Right.

498
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,000
And he was the attorney general of the United States.

499
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:04,000
And the attorney general investigated Martin Luther King.

500
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:17,000
Right. He told the FBI as the attorney general, he told the FBI to listen in on MLK's, you know, phone calls and stuff.

501
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:21,000
And they were asking him. Yeah. Wiretap. There it is.

502
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:25,000
R.F.K. Junior defends Kennedy administration wiretap of Martin Luther King.

503
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,000
And he had an interesting spin on it.

504
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:34,000
He was saying that that the CIA was going after Hoover. Was it Hoover?

505
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Hoover was going after MLK. Hoover was the FBI. No. OK.

506
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,000
Well, who was the director of the CIA back then?

507
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:52,000
I almost had it anyway because the CIA was going after MLK and telling the FBI that that MLK is all these bad things.

508
00:33:52,000 --> 00:34:05,000
He's arguing that his father told the FBI to listen in on MLK, not to go after him, but to find the truth and and and to exonerate him.

509
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:09,000
You know what I mean? Right. To sort of. So who knows if that's really the case or not.

510
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:15,000
But yeah. So on Martin Luther King Day yesterday, the FBI was taking a beating.

511
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,000
What year were you talking about? Well, they posted a tweet.

512
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:24,000
Yes. Saying, hey, we're celebrating MLK and we always have underneath was like, yeah, this is after you wiretapped them.

513
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:28,000
And yes, this and this and may have been involved in his assassination.

514
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:33,000
And yeah, they said they mailed letters to him to tell him to commit suicide and stuff.

515
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:37,000
I was like, what? Anyway, so they got thrown under the bus. Pretty good.

516
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:41,000
Yeah. When did Martin Luther King get assassinated?

517
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:54,000
It was the 60s, 60, 69, maybe 67. So it's 68. So obviously, you know, 66, 67 was when the FBI was, you know, tailing him and wiretapping him.

518
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,000
And anyway, yeah, it didn't that that that tweet didn't go well.

519
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:04,000
So as Richard Helms as the CIA director back then, that doesn't ring a bell. But yeah. OK.

520
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:09,000
Dick Helms. Oh, he was CIA from 66 to 73.

521
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:14,000
Dick Helms. What was Bush?

522
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:19,000
Bush was from 76 to 77. Oh, one year as the attorney general.

523
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:24,000
No, he has the CIA. Oh, OK. Yeah. OK. I got you. Yeah.

524
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:31,000
Yeah, I got you. Interesting. A lot of a lot of history, a lot of history going on with all that crazy stuff.

525
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:39,000
And remember, the CIA was trying to convince everybody that MLK's inner circle were communist.

526
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:47,000
And remember, communism was a cold war. It was a height of the Cold War. And, you know, and so, you know, they were Carthi ism.

527
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:52,000
Yeah. So they want to see if that were true. You know, anyway, crazy.

528
00:35:52,000 --> 00:36:03,000
It is crazy. You know, I look at the state of affairs that we are today politically and we're fucked up. I look back then throughout history.

529
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:09,000
We were just as fucked up as always. Always. You know, you go back into the eighteen hundreds.

530
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,000
It was fucked up back then. For sure. It's just different. Yeah.

531
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:16,000
Now we're dealing with the tranny crap and all that. The social stuff.

532
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:23,000
The social stuff back then. It was well, those social stuff back then to the whole Vietnam War. Oh, yeah. The war, the peace.

533
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:28,000
All that shit. It was just as toxic. And Kent State. Remember, oh, yeah.

534
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:32,000
I mean, it was bad back then. Yeah, it was. And it wasn't a good time.

535
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,000
And, you know, luckily we well, we have some mass shootings, but, you know, Kent State was bad.

536
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:41,000
That's where the cops did it. Where the National Guard or something. They shot rubber bullets and killed some people. Right.

537
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:50,000
Yeah. Yeah. So, you know, we think that iconic picture of the of the hippie putting the flower in the end of the the rifle.

538
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,000
Rifle. Yeah. Well, something comes blasting out and right in his eyeball.

539
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:58,000
I don't think it shot her head off. Well, you know, it's to keep things in perspective. Yeah, it's fucked up.

540
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:04,000
There's a lot of stupid shit going on, but there's a lot of stupid shit going on for since we've been.

541
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:09,000
I think you're right. I think it's a natural tendency to think that it's never been worse. Yeah.

542
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:13,000
You know, but that's not true. It's just different. It's just we're older.

543
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:20,000
We're paying attention now. And it was fucked up when, you know, when we were 10.

544
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:32,000
So the only thing I would probably not necessarily disagree, but the only thing that I would highlight is that politically, I can't remember two parties hating each other like they do now.

545
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:36,000
I bet there was a time back. But you're probably right. You're probably right.

546
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:41,000
Well, but I mean, it's so toxic. I just feel like I've never felt this toxicity.

547
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:47,000
I think I think I think one thing is, you're more aware. You're aware of it. That's true.

548
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:52,000
You know, you're in the middle of it. You're you're you know, and you read more than you probably should.

549
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:58,000
Oh, constantly. I hate it. So, you know, a lot of people don't feel that because they're not in it.

550
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:03,000
Yeah, they're like, what? What happened with what? Yeah, you're kidding. I don't feel the animosity. Right. Right.

551
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:09,000
So I think a lot of it has to do with how involved we are in the news. But again, I don't think this is anything out of the norm.

552
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:15,000
It's just the topics and the and the situations are a little bit different. Yeah. But it's, you know, in 20 years, it's going to be something else.

553
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:24,000
But one thing that was really interesting was, you know, how Texas is taken like Abbott is like wanting to shut down this border thing for at least for Texas.

554
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:34,000
So he has mobilized the Texas National Guard and and it's I've never heard of this. It's the Texas Military Department.

555
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:39,000
I was like, we have a Texas Military Department. I guess we do. I know. And so they went to the area.

556
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,000
The tactical border force. Right. And there's yeah, there's a whole bunch of acronyms.

557
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:49,000
And then so they went to Eagle Pass. Right. Where which is the where the coming over the most.

558
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:55,000
And so they basically took it over and they said border patrol. Not we're good. We got this right.

559
00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:00,000
And so what a border patrol do. They made up a story of someone drowning.

560
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:08,000
Yeah. Migrants drowning and the border and the Texas National Guard preventing them from getting to them and saving them.

561
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:13,000
It was a total bullshit lie. Well, the only so shady what it is.

562
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:19,000
Biden in the in the federal government, the DOJ is suing Texas now saying you can't do this. Yeah.

563
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:25,000
Well, you know, in the Constitution, I believe, you know, there's the state constitution.

564
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:35,000
And if you're not doing your job, no, not it is responsibility of the governor in the state of Texas to protect its border.

565
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:41,000
I think every border state needs to step up and take care of their own their own border.

566
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,000
They've tried a few times and they've made them undo things. Yeah.

567
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:51,000
They had the shipping container wall in Arizona and they made it down while you're on government land.

568
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:57,000
We don't want it there. So crazy. You're impacting the migration of the newt.

569
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:04,000
Is there no one I don't know? I don't think I don't think they they didn't play an animal animal card on this one, but they typically do.

570
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Yes. Let's talk about fun stuff. Let's talk about people who died.

571
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,000
How about your topic about your penis hole? Oh, penis hole.

572
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,000
Yeah. How do you get stuck in your I was just joking.

573
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:19,000
Oh, that was it. You know, because we always say, you know, we in the lead up to the podcast.

574
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:25,000
Oh, this is a podcast topic. And I was just thinking, what could be a funny thing that we use the word sticky.

575
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:29,000
I did use the word sticky. I'm kind of curious about the whole pub in the penis hole thing.

576
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:39,000
No. How did you manage that? I you know what? I sometimes I just think of funny things. Is there like a vacuum going on?

577
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,000
Oh, you mean how did that really happen? I'm just trying to figure out how the hair got into the penis.

578
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,000
Oh, it doesn't get into the penis hole. It just covers the hole. And then like, yeah.

579
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:51,000
And then your spray goes all over the place and you're like, I mean, come on.

580
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:55,000
That happens to all men that let their pubic hair get very well manicured.

581
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:59,000
Oh, so you. Yeah. So I've got like a very I've got this groomed pelt.

582
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:04,000
So it's like a flat top. Yeah. See, this is why they want to talk about this kind of thing.

583
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,000
Now, I'm sure people are getting visuals of his shards groomed pelt.

584
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,000
Oh, he's a flat iron. Just kind of smooth it all out.

585
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,000
I mean, part it. Maybe dead feathers back. Maybe dead people.

586
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,000
The better thing to talk about looks like it's a feathered back.

587
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:23,000
80s feathered back. Yes. Oh, honey, that's such a good look.

588
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:28,000
When you feather your scrotum, put a fan on it, watch just like glisten in the wind.

589
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,000
All right. So that was Paul's topic of the day. No, that was not my topic.

590
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:37,000
That was a joke. This message brought to you. We'll be right back.

591
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:42,000
We'll be right back. Speaking of we were back drinking.

592
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:48,000
This is pretty tasty. It's a high ribed. It's a very I don't want to slim

593
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:53,000
because I'm enjoying it, but you're going to. It's hold on.

594
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:57,000
What is it? Well, you could do good to get it.

595
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:01,000
It didn't. Oh, yeah. And then we break it down.

596
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,000
Feels good. What? Breaking it down.

597
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:08,000
Where is the bottle? I bought it. It's redemption whiskey.

598
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:12,000
This one is the high right. Right. Boy, right.

599
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:16,000
So this is a high right bourbon. It's redemption whiskey.

600
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:20,000
It's one we've had before. It's about one hundred five proof ish.

601
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,000
Not wrong with that. So it's it's it's in the pocket. It's good.

602
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,000
It's easy to drink. Surprisingly easy to drink.

603
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,000
It's easy. It's got some spice. There's warm notes of caramel,

604
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:34,000
hazelnut and a little ginger meld in there.

605
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:39,000
Ginger meld. Yeah. There are some people who actually say there's like a little

606
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:43,000
stone not stone fruit, but a little a little strawberry,

607
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:47,000
a little strawberry liquor action going on. Liqueur. Yeah.

608
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:51,000
Some people. So this is the high right bourbon, but it's 60 percent corn.

609
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,000
OK. Interesting. It's only ninety two proof.

610
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,000
I think it's a hundred five. The one we have is a hundred and five proof.

611
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,000
Ours is a store pick. It's a total one.

612
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,000
Yes. So ours is going to be different than this.

613
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,000
There's thirty six percent right.

614
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:08,000
Well, maybe maybe that's not even the same, but, you know, it does say high right.

615
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:10,000
So that's good. Well, it's a high right.

616
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,000
That's the same thing. I was just a store pick. All right. So

617
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,000
I like it. I like that. Some sweetness on the front.

618
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,000
It is got some sweetness for sure.

619
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:26,000
Yeah. You know, I got to tell you, I'm I need to I hate you guys

620
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:31,000
for like always busting my balls because I like to express the way I feel about

621
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,000
bourbons. But today I kind of agree with you.

622
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:38,000
I kind of got a sense of what you guys go through whenever I talk about the bourbon

623
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:43,000
because look, I think that I am all ears on this redemption.

624
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,000
High right bourbon is good, but I will share with you.

625
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:51,000
It's a little M.G.P. each for me.

626
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:55,000
Mean it's bland. It's got a hint of blandness.

627
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,000
It's got a hint of genericness.

628
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:01,000
However, that doesn't take away from the fact that I like this.

629
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:05,000
I would I'm going to go ahead and you say there's no uniqueness to this.

630
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,000
It it doesn't scream uniqueness to me.

631
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,000
It it I will drink another glass of this.

632
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:13,000
I wouldn't kick it out of bed for sure. This this is good.

633
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:17,000
It's solid. I like it. It's kind of a it's kind of a light.

634
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,000
And I think what they said about the strawberry liqueur is kind of hits it

635
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:25,000
because it's got a really nice, soft, rosé kind of feel to it.

636
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,000
You know, when you when you it definitely has a sweet nose.

637
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,000
It doesn't have quite the sweetness in the taste.

638
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,000
But I mean, there is some it's good. I like it.

639
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,000
Fennel, fennel, fennel, fennel, fennel.

640
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:42,000
They use it. Use that in like Italian sausage sausage sausage.

641
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,000
Fennel notes. I got to write it downstairs.

642
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,000
I could bring a black pepper from the little caramel.

643
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,000
I don't see. I like this.

644
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,000
It's hazelnut. It's how much right.

645
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,000
Did you say was it 36 percent? All right.

646
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,000
So it says vanilla, red berries and toasted oak.

647
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,000
Oh, taste all that's the palette.

648
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,000
Sixty percent corn.

649
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,000
Interesting.

650
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,000
They accept those cookies over there.

651
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:08,000
What is going on?

652
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,000
But I like to sell. I'm going to give this a six and a half.

653
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:14,000
Oh, I was I was going to go with six point three.

654
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,000
So, yeah, that's about right. That's what I'm thinking.

655
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,000
Oh, yeah. So, yeah, I'd like it.

656
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,000
We saw a nine point seven for you.

657
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:28,000
Well, my point is, I probably would buy this for my collection.

658
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,000
It's good. Remember, it's a store pick.

659
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,000
Yeah. Well, that plays it out.

660
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,000
You know, because you never get the ninety four proof.

661
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,000
My God. Probably not.

662
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,000
But a waste. Come on. I know.

663
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,000
I'm busting you. It's OK.

664
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:47,000
Speaking of ball busting, you know, we went out to eighteen

665
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:51,000
forty five distillery in Lowery Crossing, Texas this past week.

666
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,000
So dudes like us, for those folks that don't know, have embarked

667
00:45:55,000 --> 00:46:01,000
along a couple of years ago on on the on wood crafting stuff.

668
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:05,000
So we do, you know, find us on dudes like us, Instagram, find us.

669
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,000
There's actually a Facebook page out there.

670
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,000
We're going to cultivate a pretty good and add wood projects in there.

671
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,000
In fact, we have a dudes like us wood project page.

672
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:15,000
But I guess what I'm getting at is we were out in eighteen forty five.

673
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:20,000
We're going to hopefully start pushing some of these freebies for them.

674
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,000
We're making a few plaques, little wooden boxes, little wood.

675
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,000
Little something here. Yeah, it's exciting for me.

676
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,000
It's exciting for Jeff. I wish you could have gone.

677
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,000
I know it would have been bad.

678
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:35,000
Well, you know, it's it's exciting to go to the store with your son and buy a gun.

679
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,000
I thought that was kind of cool, too. What do you end up getting?

680
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:42,000
He end up getting a Springfield Hellcat Gatling gun.

681
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,000
Yeah, it's a Gatling gun.

682
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,000
It shoots six thousand rounds per second per minute.

683
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,000
That's nice. That's a Vulcan gun, actually.

684
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,000
Oh, six thousand rounds.

685
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,000
That's got quite the spin on that.

686
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,000
So we went to Shields.

687
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,000
Shields. Shields. Shields.

688
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:05,000
Oh, really? I said Shields. Shields. Shields.

689
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:09,000
And because I knew they had a big selection and damn, what a zoo.

690
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,000
What a freaking zoo. Yeah.

691
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,000
I mean, anyway, it was crazy.

692
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,000
And he had never been there.

693
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:17,000
So I thought that's kind of cool for him to see. Did you actually buy one?

694
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:21,000
Yeah, so we went upstairs to the gun area and I was like, oh, shit, here we go.

695
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:24,000
Because I don't know anything. I really honestly don't know.

696
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:28,000
But doesn't it? To me, it seems like you're going to overpay there.

697
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:31,000
No, no, I mean, because they can I don't know.

698
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,000
They can volume by right. So I don't know.

699
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:43,000
I mean, I know that when Jeff and I have gone there, we've looked at some other items like sweatshirts, shoes, whatever it is.

700
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,000
And it's kind of like, get the fuck out of here.

701
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,000
Really? I'm not paying that price. Yeah, the clothing is kind of overpriced.

702
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:49,000
You've lost your God bless of mind.

703
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Well, interesting. So I definitely.

704
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:56,000
So the only price points I knew about in terms of guns were the Glocks, right?

705
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,000
Because I have a Glock. So, you know, I was kind of worried about that.

706
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:03,000
I was like, I haven't even done any research about, you know, if it's price or whatever.

707
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:07,000
And we walked up and sure enough, the Glock prices were the same as Academy's Glock prices.

708
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,000
So I was like, well, I think we're probably OK.

709
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:14,000
Anyway, but it was a freaking zoo. And I was like, I don't even know where to start here because I don't know anything about the other gun.

710
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,000
Was there a line to get into the area?

711
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,000
No, no, but everything's under lock and key.

712
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:23,000
So you have to talk to somebody, you know, and I was like, shit, man, I don't know how this is going to go.

713
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,000
Anyway, this guy just walks by and he's like, you just got lucky.

714
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,000
And he was like, need help? I was like, we do.

715
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:33,000
And so he just bam, bam, bam. Just, you know, here are the top three brands and here's what you're looking for.

716
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,000
Here are the differences. And and you know, a millimeter.

717
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:40,000
So, yes, a nine millimeter. It's yeah. He got the Springfield Hellcat.

718
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:45,000
I've got a couple of Springfields, a 40 and a 45.

719
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,000
You know, do you guys want some ammo? I just got another 100000 rounds.

720
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:53,000
I'm running out of a closet. Just under 100000.

721
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:56,000
Yeah, I really like the 40. Yeah.

722
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,000
Have you shot it? Yes. Cool.

723
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,000
So you got a little pow to it. Yeah, it's good.

724
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:05,000
Compared to a nine millimeter. Yeah. Well, yeah, it's just significantly bigger.

725
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,000
I like the 45 as well.

726
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,000
Yeah, 40's got like a huge stopping power.

727
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,000
45's I mean, compared to the nine millimeter.

728
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,000
Oh, yeah. Like, no, for sure. Good night.

729
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,000
If you want stopping power with a nine millimeter, you have to get a hollow point.

730
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,000
I mean, basically because it's yeah.

731
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:28,000
Well, they say for home defense, you don't want to use standard bullets because they'll go through the person and through a wall with a wall.

732
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,000
So you want to get a hollow point. Yeah.

733
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:33,000
So cause maximum damage.

734
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:38,000
Yeah. So he immediately liked the Springfield Hellcat and the price point was pretty good.

735
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,000
I mean, it was like five hundred and something. That's what I knew it would be.

736
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:45,000
And the guy goes, you know, I think I have that exact one in pre-owned.

737
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:50,000
Let me go look at it. We walk over to this other thing and he was like 150 bucks cheaper.

738
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,000
Yes. And I was like, score. So yeah.

739
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,000
So he got. Is it black or the desert? Black.

740
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:01,000
Yeah. So he got a pre-owned one and got some ammo and he was really excited.

741
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:05,000
I already got him a get a license or anything. You don't need one.

742
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:09,000
No, you don't need a license. True.

743
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:15,000
Yeah. However, you do have to do a background check, but you don't have to have a license unless you want to do a concealed carry.

744
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:19,000
There you go. You can. That's why I was asked that in Texas anymore either.

745
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,000
If you go outside of Texas, there you go. That's why I was asked.

746
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:27,000
So, I mean, still, it's good to have it because the reason why I say that is because I don't trust the system.

747
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:32,000
I'm thinking that this is just a way for them to fuck with us so that we don't get it.

748
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:36,000
Then all of a sudden they're going to be like, oh, by the way, boom, here's a new law.

749
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,000
And by the way, if you want to get a concealed handguns, we lessons.

750
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:43,000
We have all these new credentials that we got to fill. So I'm kind of curious.

751
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:47,000
So all the old ones are void. So I start over, perhaps.

752
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:50,000
I'm not sure. I know we have open carry.

753
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:55,000
So you literally can walk around the street with a pistol in a holster in plain view.

754
00:50:55,000 --> 00:51:00,000
But I don't think you can conceal it unless you have a concealed carry.

755
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:04,000
Yeah. Yeah, you can't conceal it. Are you are you 100 percent sure on that?

756
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:08,000
Because open carry means that's a fairly new law over the last year or so.

757
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:14,000
Can you look that up for us, Mr. Producer, like the difference between open carry and concealed carry in Texas?

758
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,000
Do you need a CHL in Texas? I don't think you do.

759
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:22,000
I think they I think Texas went all out and says if you have a gun, you carry it.

760
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:26,000
Yeah. Well, I yeah, I really want to know this. OK, here we go.

761
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:31,000
Open carry versus concealed carry pros and cons.

762
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Is that is that in particular of Texas? OK, good.

763
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:41,000
So it's going to ask you for the zip code. Oh, no, I thought it was going to be there because this could be very.

764
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,000
This is I know a lot of people get confused. So here's a question.

765
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:48,000
Can you can you concealed carry in Texas without a license?

766
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:55,000
Texas is coming up on two years since permit ease carry passed in the Texas legislature,

767
00:51:55,000 --> 00:52:01,000
which has allowed Texas Texans to carry handguns without a license since September 2021.

768
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:04,000
Although they do they don't need a permit to carry a handgun.

769
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:08,000
Over 200000 people in Texas still obtained a license in 2022.

770
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:12,000
That's what I thought. But it doesn't why everyone without anything.

771
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:16,000
So why? Yeah, but it doesn't say concealed. That's what I'm wondering.

772
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,000
Well, it says you're carrying it. That means like a size.

773
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,000
Yes. Well, they didn't specify that.

774
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,000
Well, there's a difference between having one under your jacket.

775
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,000
That's called open. Well, it's called open carry.

776
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:29,000
Why didn't they say you could open carry with that? That's what I'm trying to find out.

777
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:32,000
That's what I'm trying to do. Open and concealed.

778
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,000
They're just saying carry. Tell you what, why keep looking for that, Mr.

779
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:39,000
Producer, and try to just try to find something that says,

780
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:43,000
are we allowed to conceal a handgun without a permit in Texas?

781
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,000
What does it say? Oh, OK. Does it need to be in a holster?

782
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:51,000
If a handgun is partially or wholly visible, it must be in a holster.

783
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:54,000
All right. So that implies that if it's not visible, it doesn't have to be.

784
00:52:54,000 --> 00:53:00,000
Texas law does not place similar holster requirements on a handgun being carried in a concealed manner.

785
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:05,000
Really? So why would anybody get a LTC, a license to?

786
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,000
Because of the reciprocating licenses in 21 other states.

787
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:12,000
Correct. 23 other states if you travel. If you travel. Right.

788
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:20,000
So well, but even if you travel, I mean, when I traveled to Arkansas, I've got my pistol in my car and I'm allowed to have in my car.

789
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:25,000
It has nothing to do with that license to carry thing as long as they have so do it.

790
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:31,000
It needs to be in a lockbox. I don't even think that you can have it in your car in in reciprocal states.

791
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:36,000
Right. You can't have it within. You can't be able to access it to work from where you're at in the car.

792
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:40,000
So that got tucked away. Gun rack. Texas.

793
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:47,000
No, outside. Like if you don't have a license in that state, you can you can carry it because a car is an extension of your home.

794
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:51,000
Yes. However, what if they don't have licenses like Texas?

795
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:55,000
So can someone from Louisiana carry a gun in Texas?

796
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:59,000
I think if they are, if they have reciprocal laws where they honor each other's laws.

797
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:09,000
So all of the state has that all the 23 states that are under the umbrella of the Texas handgun license, concealed handgun license, all share the same.

798
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:14,000
It's a reciprocal law for all those 23 states. So I'm going to make it up. Missouri.

799
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:22,000
So we could be in Missouri and I can carry my in my back. I could load my Springfield 40 in my back lower back.

800
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:27,000
Yeah. Put it in your belt loop. I forget what what what states are on that.

801
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,000
That's good. If that's just if it was reciprocal. Right.

802
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:40,000
The answer would be yes. If they if they have a reciprocal law honoring open carry like Texas does, then you can walk around with a gun tucked into your belt.

803
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:50,000
I'm not there yet to feel comfortable to do that. I'm not either because I need to I need to pick the gun that I want to train on and I want to take classes.

804
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:53,000
I want my wife to go through it as well. I need you to pick one of these.

805
00:54:53,000 --> 00:55:00,000
So you get comfortable with it. And remember, if you're going to if you're going to conceal it like my it would be a pain in the ass for my Glock to be concealed.

806
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:06,000
It's a big a big handgun. They have much smaller ones like Dylan's is much smaller. I'll pull I'll get my Springfields out.

807
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:12,000
Not small much smaller, but I'll get my Springfields out at halftime so you can see them. Yeah. OK. Cool.

808
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:18,000
Anyway, that's that's an interesting topic. And I was excited to get that for him because I'm kind of disappointed about that.

809
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:23,000
Honestly, which part? Because the the concealed part, I think that that's bullshit.

810
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:32,000
I think that, you know, open carry is open carry. If you don't need I just I had it and it's only because I had to take like a super extended class.

811
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:38,000
So if you get your take that class, you'd be fine with it. Pardon. If you didn't take that class, you'd be OK with it.

812
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:42,000
No, what I'm saying is that I did take the class. Right.

813
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:46,000
And I think it's bullshit that they're just going to say, all right, well, you don't need to take the class.

814
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,000
Nobody. Anyone can take a gun. You can just go get the fucking gun.

815
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:53,000
I think that's bullshit. And then walk around. I think that there needs to be some accountability.

816
00:55:53,000 --> 00:56:03,000
I'm not saying that you need to register your guns. I'm just saying that, you know, you should be able to you need a license, I think, to have a gun on you that's concealed.

817
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:08,000
If you want to walk around with a fucking AR 15 strapped over your shoulder, you can. Yeah.

818
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:13,000
And then fine. I don't care about that. You can see it. That motherfucker's got a gun.

819
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:19,000
I don't think that they should legally be able to conceal a gun unless they have a license.

820
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:24,000
Interesting. That's just my opinion. No, I get it. I get it. I mean, I'm not sure how I feel about it.

821
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:33,000
I would feel better knowing what's the point of even having it. I just there's got to be a reason why they still offer it.

822
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:38,000
It's a concealed handgun permit. So I want to read up on it because I don't know.

823
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:53,000
Well, it says right here, clear as bell. Beginning September 1st, 2021, H.B. 1927 made it legal in Texas for most people 21 over to carry a handgun in a holster without permit, both openly and or concealed.

824
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:58,000
There you go. Correct. So why? Why get a concealed handgun permit? What does it give you? I know that.

825
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:04,000
Unless it gives you confidence. Like I said, I don't have confidence to carry a gun. Maybe it would give me confidence if I went to the class.

826
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:11,000
Yeah, and that's just it too, because the class teaches you how to shoot. It teaches you a bunch of rules.

827
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:22,000
It teaches you the legalities of shooting somebody. And it also it also promotes the idea that if you have a handgun, you probably should get some sort of insurance.

828
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:32,000
I was just about to say that because they they offer discounts or they automatically maybe, I don't know, enroll you to where if you were in a shooting incident.

829
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:35,000
I think it's huge. They'll back you. They'll back you. They'll take care of you.

830
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:44,000
A hundred percent. They'll knock some shit out. So it's it's it's extremely affordable. Right. It's like it's like 50 bucks a year.

831
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:49,000
So yeah, no, that's and that that can be that that can be a good deal.

832
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:57,000
So every time I was like the NRA or just through an insurance company, insurance. It's a very specific one.

833
00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:02,000
It is not the NRA, but it's a specific one. And, you know, they push it.

834
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:06,000
Liberty, liberty, liberty. That one. It's not that one.

835
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:12,000
It's not that one. Good. Good guess. Good segue to. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Great jingle. Yeah. Like that.

836
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:17,000
I had the notes. Dangle, dangle, dangle. You know, kind of like the goddamn frozen.

837
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaking of frozen and choking God. Dallas Cowboys.

838
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:30,000
Segway. She's they look so bad from the first very beginning.

839
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:34,000
I actually, you know, usually like another team I don't care about.

840
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:42,000
I'm like, whatever. But I was like, oh, I was like, they're not going to get over this like for a long time.

841
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:48,000
Yeah, I'm pretty my thing is better if you slip into the to the playoffs as a Cinderella team because, you know, something,

842
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:54,000
you know, three teams had to lose for you to get in. That's different. Right. But they were the front runner.

843
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:58,000
Like from the from from a like a fucking manhandled.

844
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:02,000
Philadelphia was a front runner for most of the season until the last three or four games.

845
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:07,000
I get it. But Dallas has been beating the shit out of people like they win every game by like 20 points.

846
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,000
Yeah. But every game. Yeah. But they're against teams that suck.

847
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:13,000
It is. Well, OK. Their division is probably not great. Yeah.

848
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:20,000
The games they've lost are tight. I mean, no, no, I mean, but the teams are getting better teams.

849
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:24,000
The better teams, they did they be some of them. No, I don't think so.

850
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:28,000
They were 11 and six. Yeah. You don't get that record without.

851
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:32,000
They played the Giants twice, played the Washington twice and played Philadelphia twice, lost one of them.

852
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:35,000
They beat Philadelphia when they were. Now they suck.

853
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:38,000
You're saying they were overrated the whole time.

854
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:42,000
I think I think their record didn't reflect how good they were.

855
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,000
Like it was their true inflated. Right. I think.

856
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,000
Well, I mean, apparently how they went down kind of backs that up.

857
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,000
I mean, they did have C.D. Lamb that had like a phenomenal.

858
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,000
He did. He did. And they broke records.

859
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,000
They kept talking about that over and over again.

860
00:59:56,000 --> 01:00:02,000
It's like we don't understand what's happening. I mean, the jacket player over that had a record breaking six to six.

861
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:05,000
What are they called? Six picks pick six picks six. Right. Bland.

862
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:09,000
Is that his name? Deron Bland Bland Bland.

863
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,000
I don't know. Right.

864
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:17,000
But very interesting games over the weekend that started out with Texas beating the shit out of Cleveland.

865
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,000
I didn't see that coming. I didn't see. I mean, I think Cleveland.

866
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:23,000
I picked to win that game. But that CJ Stroud, he looks good.

867
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:26,000
He looks really good. I'm almost like bitter.

868
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:34,000
I'm bitter because it's like, you know, they're a division rival and damn, they get one draft pick and it turns their whole fricking season around.

869
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:39,000
I think I know there's one game into the playoffs. I'm like, really? Fucking one pick.

870
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,000
I think the coach has to do with it as well. Well, yeah.

871
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,000
D'Amico Rhymes is is is a good coach, I think.

872
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:50,000
So anyway, what else happened? I guess the rest of the games weren't shocking, but none of them were close.

873
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:57,000
Well, I was disappointed in the Buffalo Steelers game because I was looking forward to a nasty ass weather.

874
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:04,000
Snowy, snowmageddon game and it pissed me off because the NFL moved it to Monday.

875
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:07,000
It would have been so fun to try to watch those guys out there.

876
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:11,000
Now, it was ridiculously windy. It was almost dangerous. Yeah.

877
01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:14,000
So so they did the right thing. They should have left the snow on the field.

878
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:19,000
I like to see them trudging through like three feet of snow.

879
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:25,000
That's not realistic either. But when I tuned it in yesterday, I was like, this was like a regular fucking game.

880
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:32,000
Yeah, I was really surprised because they were just oh, yeah, they were really talking about how it may be just as bad and blah, blah, blah.

881
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:35,000
So anyway, no, I like the I like the outdoor games.

882
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:40,000
I like the fact that I don't like dome games as a spectator.

883
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:44,000
I like dome games, but on TV, I want to see them outside fighting the elements as well.

884
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,000
Yeah, those are always being miserable. Yeah.

885
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:57,000
Yeah. Being miserable. And I remember living in New Jersey and this is like in the early fuck late 70s, early 80s.

886
01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,000
And we'd be out there playing football. Oh, yeah.

887
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:03,000
You know, in the snow with no snow. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

888
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:07,000
No. Oh, it was it was wonderful. It was wonderful.

889
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:10,000
We play. It's so cold. You don't feel it. Right.

890
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:17,000
Yeah, we would. We play full contact tackle football and there'd be a foot of snow out there and it was starting to thaw.

891
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:20,000
I remember this specifically starting to thaw.

892
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:27,000
So it was just a mud pit. Oh, and we were just from head to toe because we were all getting tackled.

893
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:29,000
Oh, yeah. Slipping everywhere. You couldn't run very fast.

894
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:32,000
So the tackles weren't going to obliterate you.

895
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:38,000
But how fun you get tackled and you just slide and it was cold as fuck.

896
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,000
Oh, yeah. One thing and you're just in your clothes are drenched.

897
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:45,000
It was probably and you're sweating, too, because you're working your ass off.

898
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:49,000
So we're starting to mess with the weird, weird like, yeah, thing going on.

899
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:51,000
You're sweating, but you're frozen.

900
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,000
It's probably, you know, upper thirties. Right.

901
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:59,000
So, yeah, this wasn't quite super cold, but it was still once the game was done.

902
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:03,000
You're like, all right, I need to go change for one thing.

903
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:09,000
So you both you both got to experience that then you were both in cold climate kind of childhoods.

904
01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:11,000
Oh, yeah, I was at least for a while. I mean, I know you went to Germany.

905
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:14,000
I don't know if that was cold there, but Germany is colder.

906
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:18,000
Oh, yes. You're right. OK. Yes. Farther up in terms of latitude.

907
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:23,000
Yeah. Well, it turns out summer is a little bit different in Germany, too.

908
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,000
Longer, much longer. Yeah. Actually, I don't even know.

909
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:28,000
It's different weather patterns over there. Yeah. Right. Yeah.

910
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:33,000
Just because just like England, right, it's further north, but I don't think they get some snow.

911
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:37,000
From what I understand, they don't get like feet.

912
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:42,000
Yeah, I didn't I didn't get that. I got when I was a really young kid, I was in Denver for a while.

913
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,000
But then we moved overseas. Right. So, I mean, Argentina got cold.

914
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:51,000
But then the rest of the time it was in tropics. There was no it was wet and wet and dry.

915
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:56,000
So, yeah, I didn't. And then I moved to Houston. So I didn't get that.

916
01:03:56,000 --> 01:04:00,000
Cold. Did you ever find your rear headband? I didn't. I didn't look for it.

917
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:05,000
Well, I tell you what, snow wintertime is a blast as a kid. Yeah.

918
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:10,000
Absolute blast. I would think so. It sucks as an adult.

919
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:15,000
Absolutely sucks as an adult. Right. And you think, no, it's going to be it's going to be a good time.

920
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:21,000
Now, going on vacation in snow is one thing. Right. But living in it and going shoveling your driveway.

921
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:26,000
We got we got four feet of snow yesterday. I can't get to the store. My kids are screaming for food.

922
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:30,000
I have no toilet paper. What am I going to do? Just you wipe it in the snow.

923
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:35,000
I guess. Or you're like, or you're like, I got to get to work. You do what the dogs do.

924
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:38,000
You chomp around in the snow and take a shit on top of the snow.

925
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:44,000
And you know, you're shoveling driveways or you got snowblowers and it's cold.

926
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:49,000
It sucks as an adult to live in there. I never had to do it. At least in my opinion.

927
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,000
I loved it as a kid. Sure. Absolutely loved it.

928
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:57,000
I mean, now now it's like we get snow and like you got snow. You know what I mean?

929
01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:01,000
It's like a totally different reaction as opposed to fuck. Right.

930
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:06,000
And, you know, the cities really don't shut down up there in the north. Right.

931
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:09,000
They totally do. It's so funny. I mean, yes.

932
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:14,000
I think it was yesterday when it snowed overnight. Not even very much. Right.

933
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:19,000
It was like a quarter inch. So my where I work in my little corner is the front window

934
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:23,000
and I can oversee the front street. A car didn't pass.

935
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:28,000
And it's a high it's a fairly high residential traffic road. Right.

936
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:33,000
No tracks were laid on that road past lunchtime. Right. Yep.

937
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:38,000
It's insane how this afraid. Yeah. How we just well, I think it's also an excuse.

938
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:43,000
Oh, it is. Oh, I don't have to go to work today. Yep. Yep. Oh, no, no, can't do it.

939
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:49,000
Yep. So anyway, it's fun. I mean, what's different now versus when we were growing up

940
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:55,000
regarding school, for example, you know, we get up in the mornings and you have to run to the TV

941
01:05:55,000 --> 01:06:00,000
and check the little little ticker, a little ticker ticker on the bottom.

942
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,000
Scrolling through the school. And you're like, come on, come on, come on.

943
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:09,000
It gets past your letter. Oh, yes. And then you're like, my school district sucks.

944
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:16,000
Mine did. Mine did. I open no matter what I did. Yes. Mine was.

945
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:24,000
I never had one snow day all the way through high school and we had feet of snow several years.

946
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:29,000
Frisco shuts down if it gets below 40. And I walked to school. It's true.

947
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:32,000
They do. Just the thought. No, it's so crazy.

948
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:40,000
And there were districts around us that closed because it's cold. Yeah.

949
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:45,000
But look at you. You're tough. Those other kids in those other school districts. Pussies.

950
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:49,000
Big time pussies, man. Look at them now. Look them up on Facebook right now.

951
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:52,000
Come up with a name of somebody in another school district. Just a peas.

952
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:56,000
Exactly. So they did you right. That's right. Look how tough you are.

953
01:06:56,000 --> 01:07:00,000
And I argue with my wife. I was like, because she was looking. She goes, you know,

954
01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:03,000
she goes, Richardson's closed. Dallas is closed. Fort Worth is closed.

955
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:08,000
I was like, where are they closed? It's cold. What do you mean it's cold? Right.

956
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:12,000
You just don't go to school because it's cold. Right. I was like, you know what?

957
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:17,000
I went through. I was like, I would walk literally. My kids don't.

958
01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:22,000
I was like, I walked uphill. Both ways. I did. Naked. I wasn't naked.

959
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:26,000
I got gangrene. But I would walk through fucking blizzards to school.

960
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:31,000
Blizzard. Yes, I would go to school and my hair was frozen. Yeah, I've done that.

961
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:35,000
It was ridiculous. Yeah, that's crazy how their hair was all frozen. Yeah.

962
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:42,000
That's what I did. You get to put your tongue on a pole. No, no, you don't do shit like that.

963
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:47,000
Oh, sorry. Did you ever go to Ohio? You learn those things.

964
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:52,000
OK, sounds like a good idea. Oh, but bad idea. Yeah. Yeah.

965
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:56,000
In doses, I can handle it. The older we get. Yeah, I'm with you.

966
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:01,000
I was outside with my almost with nothing on.

967
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:05,000
I mean, I had a jacket on with with my underwear on. Nothing. My Crocs.

968
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:08,000
And outside. Did you play football that way?

969
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:12,000
No, I was trying to like put the little thing on top of the spigot on the back, too.

970
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:15,000
But it froze the back there. I was scared to death. I had a fuck.

971
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:20,000
I ran a Denox Stitcher Corps, put a little heater on the outside for the first year ever.

972
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:23,000
I didn't even cover the faucets with those little.

973
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:26,000
I didn't do it. Living life dangerously there.

974
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:31,000
Well, I kind of got distracted when Dylan showed up and was like, oh, we're shopping for the gun.

975
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:34,000
Because I was supposed to winterize that day. It was a hot that day.

976
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:39,000
It was like 68. Jeff and I were talking about actually I was talking about that giving you indirectly a little shit.

977
01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:45,000
I was like, God damn, why does Paul have so much on his plate all the time?

978
01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:50,000
I don't fucking get it. How is he so busy? I kind of am.

979
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:54,000
Yes, I don't know. I've got things going on. That's what dudes like us.

980
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:58,000
But I really wanted to go to 1845. I really did. And I wanted to bring Dylan.

981
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,000
I told you guys. Yes. And then I was excited.

982
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:07,000
But what I didn't know is he he made plans with me, with others to watch the game at a sports bar.

983
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:10,000
But you said he wanted to go to 1845. He did.

984
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:14,000
But I was like, you made plans. He's like, yeah, Dad, after we get the gun, we're going to this place.

985
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,000
I was like, well, there goes 1845. All right.

986
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:21,000
We'll be right back. All right. Oh, you're this.

987
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:25,000
Shout out to Larry Crossings, 1845 distillery. Your shit's awesome.

988
01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:31,000
Mr. Producer, thank you. First half of the podcast. It is the January 16th, 2024.

989
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:45,000
I'm Sean. I'm Paul. And I'm Jeff.
