1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,040
Let go.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,000
That music's not so loud this time.

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,040
Maybe I'm going deaf. You are. Could be. Welcome to my world.

4
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:16,080
Humanity. It only brings back

5
00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:20,120
the shit I had to deal with today. Today was the load up jam packed day

6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,160
but it started out, which is the focus of what I'm about to say, is

7
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:28,200
going to the doctors. Here we go again.

8
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,240
Here we go again. What's my weakness?

9
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:36,280
Going to the gym.

10
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,320
It's another Dudes Like Us moment.

11
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:44,360
It's August 6th, 2024. August. Shit.

12
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,400
Fucking crazy. Mr. Producers in town.

13
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,440
Welcome back sir. Dudes Like Us, I'm Sean. I'm Paul.

14
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,480
And I am Jeff. We have a ton of shit to talk about.

15
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,520
We're going to talk about the first half. And it's a little jam packed. I apologize for being a little delayed on this. You guys don't know.

16
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,560
You're not impacted by this. But we are.

17
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,600
Sean had a gala to go to. Yes. We did.

18
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,640
A boondoggle. You know, you had a friend that went out of town

19
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,680
and came back and gifted you a bottle

20
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,720
of whiskey from a certain place. She did. We'll be talking about that.

21
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,760
We're going to talk about this in a little bit. I'll tell you what, it's not a very high proof one but I tell you

22
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,800
just kicking out the initial drink. I'm liking it.

23
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,840
For the low proof that it is, it has decent flavor to it. Are you guys pulling a teaser?

24
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,880
Yes. We're going to talk about the selection.

25
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,920
Get them all juiced up and wet before it hits.

26
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,960
Oh dude, my nose is wet. Wet like sweaty.

27
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:49,000
Thrombing. Well, maybe. Swollen.

28
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,040
Wow. So I'll tell you what, I'm going to talk about my doctor's visit today.

29
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,080
Very, very, very good news. You're still a male.

30
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,120
He didn't have to shove his finger up my bottom. He's still a male.

31
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,160
I've been asking. He didn't have to check my

32
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:09,200
prostate this time. I don't know what the deal is. He was like, you got a full physical. I was like,

33
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,240
yes, Mr. Culpepper, Dr. Culpepper. Because you had a colonoscopy last year. Maybe

34
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,280
you were too eager. Maybe you jumped in there and ripped off your pants and

35
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,320
bent over the table and you were like, okay, doctor, give it to me.

36
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,360
You're just gaping. I'm not quite there yet.

37
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,400
He's like, you know what? Not today, Sean.

38
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,440
No, I know. I was able to skip mine because I had a

39
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,480
colonoscopy the previous, within the six or nine months.

40
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,520
He had mentioned some numbers and I kind of

41
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,560
hurt listening to him, but I didn't really understand what they were talking about. He said

42
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,600
that guys our age should be

43
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,640
the average would be a one point zero. Now I'm not

44
00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:57,680
sure what that's referring to. It's referring to something about your prostate.

45
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,720
Like the size of it. Maybe. Maybe. You have a tiny prostate.

46
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,760
Like a walnut. Like it's one walnut. I'm not sure. The little tiny little cute

47
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,800
little prostate. Or a pistachio. Maybe a Brazilian nut.

48
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,840
Brazilian nut, yes. And he said that yours is

49
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,880
better. That number is better than one percent of America. So what he said is

50
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,920
the average for my age is a one point zero. And he said

51
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:25,960
mine was a point six. So I was doing very well. And that he

52
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,000
could pass because he was, this was a little chart that he had.

53
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,040
And it was like, it was going up, but it was like, you know, he was like you're nowhere near

54
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,080
the up where we need to be concerned. He's like, hey, you know, don't worry about it.

55
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:42,120
You're going to get your, you know, whatever. He said the next six, the next

56
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,160
colonoscopy.

57
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,200
Next inspection. Which is next month. The next anal. The next anal probe.

58
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,240
I'm not getting those like that anymore. No. What is it called? The god damn it, I got a brain

59
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,280
fart. The thing I just did today. The physical. The physical. God bless. I want to see

60
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,320
that chart. Is it like a chart where it's like there's no finger, then no finger, and then a tiny

61
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,360
bit of the finger. And then a little bit more of the finger all the way up to all the whole arm.

62
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,400
It's rated on knuckles. So it's like one knuckle, two knuckle,

63
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,440
three knuckle. And you were right above needing any finger.

64
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,480
I was like, sir, I have been my whole life like

65
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,520
I've been protecting my prostate. I've been protecting my prostate.

66
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,560
It's been wrapped in bubble wrap. Now look,

67
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,600
all in all, my things are great, man.

68
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,640
I just tried turning that down. That's what happened, Mr. Producer.

69
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,680
I went to the doctor the previous week and had all the panels

70
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,720
and all that stuff, right. And all my shit came back great. Clostral is low.

71
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,760
Everything. Glucose was perfect.

72
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,800
Liver perfect. Everything. What about your calcium? I was like score.

73
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,840
She's like your calcium is perfect. She said everything.

74
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:58,880
She goes, I got them downstairs. We can look at them. Were they concerned about low

75
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,920
alcohol levels for both of you? Yeah, she goes, yeah, you're not quite as pickled.

76
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,960
So they're like, we were hoping you would drink a little bit more.

77
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:11,000
No, so I was very pleased. Blood pressure's good. She may even wean me off of the

78
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,040
blood pressure medicine. Ah, that is huge news.

79
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,080
Wow. Considering everything that's going on, that's huge news. How is your

80
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:23,120
blood pressure ever taken? You know what, you're taking that stuff, right?

81
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:27,160
I haven't taken that. Oh my God. However,

82
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,200
my blood pressure, so I informed the doctor because he was like,

83
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,240
are you taking your blood pressure every day? And I was like, no, I'm taking it twice a week.

84
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,280
Okay. And he was kind of like, really?

85
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:43,320
And he looked disappointed and wrote something in your chart? No, he looked disappointed

86
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,360
that he looked at my chart and he was like, your blood pressure is 120 over 84.

87
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,400
Okay. Well, there's merit there. When's the last time

88
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,440
you took your medicine? I'm supposed to take it when I get back.

89
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,480
He's like, all right, so this is on the downside of three days and your blood pressure is this good? I was like, yes, sir.

90
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,520
Oh, that is good news. So you know what, it's not, you know, he says it's very

91
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,560
rare that people will include yourself because obviously you fit in the same

92
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,600
category that will not, we'll go back on not taking the blood pressure medicine.

93
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,640
Yeah. And it's like, it all has to do with discipline and being diligent.

94
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,680
Well, I mean, yeah, you're diet about no salt, right?

95
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,720
Whatever it is. I mean, that's good too. Well, I think it's also, it's also, Sean has lost weight.

96
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,760
I've lost weight. Yes, that's a big part of it. Cardiovascular

97
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,800
health. Yes. And I got my trampoline. You still been using it?

98
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,840
Every day. Yeah. You know, I bought that, that

99
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:39,880
treadmill, the walking treadmill that with a raising desk, I did it today.

100
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,920
I walked and worked for 20 minutes.

101
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,960
I should do it some more. Work your way up to it.

102
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,000
Yeah. I'll work my way up to it. First day I'm like, I'll do it all day. You know what's funny though? I was like,

103
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,040
you know, at work we have this vitality program and you can record the number of steps and you know,

104
00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,080
you get all these points. And I was like, I'm going to get a shitload of points. The problem is I'm not getting any

105
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,120
steps because I wear my watch and my watch is holding my mouse while I'm working.

106
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,160
So my arm's not swinging. Put it on the other hand. Put it on your ankle. Well no,

107
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,200
I mean both are, well that's what somebody said. I was like, I don't have skinny ass little ankles.

108
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,240
Come on, my watch is not going to fit on my ankle. Whoa.

109
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,280
It doesn't fit. It doesn't get that small. Yeah, that's true. What? Oh, on my

110
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,320
dick? Yes. Oh, like a dick watch. Jesus. This is the first half of the

111
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,360
episode. Well you're the drunk one, not us. So check us out on... But think about it, if I'm

112
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,400
helicoptering, I can get triple points. Look guys, let's take a little

113
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,440
moment of clarity. We've got... I'm getting 20 steps to every real step.

114

Check us out on Instagram, dudeslikeus-podcast.

117
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,560
diligently producing fantastic stuff. Yeah, he's working that machine.

118
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,600
Oh yeah. Yeah, do you see the American flag downstairs? American flag. I knew you

119
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,640
were working on it. It's done. The one with the 52 stars, right? Yeah, 52 stars. I took them like...

120
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,640
I shouldn't have counted. I probably made you feel bad. I thought you said

121
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,680
Washington, Puerto Rico. I counted. I was like 52. I was like, wait a minute.

122
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,720
I know, I don't want that. I was like, ugh. Yeah, he sent a picture where he was all excited.

123
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,760
Hey guys, this is what I'm working on. And I was like, why are there 52 stars? Yeah.

124
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,800
Well, it looks good. I'll tell you, it does look good. It's inch and a quarter thick. It's thick wood too, man.

125
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,840
Yeah, I did that. I did that because it's a larger

126
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,880
flag that I wanted to start bowing on. Oh, it needs integrity for

127
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,920
sure. It's good. Fantastic job on it. You've got that down, man. You've done what?

128
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,960
Like four or five of these now. No, I've done more than that. Yeah, I've got a process down.

129
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:41,000
That's excellent. It just takes time. You know, you gotta wait to shit dry and

130
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,040
stuff like that. So, I mean, ripping the boards is... Once you get the light, that's pretty easy.

131
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:49,080
That reminds me, I've got a couple extra clamps that I can bring over.

132
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,120
Wood clamps. Cramps? Oh, clamps. Some cramps.

133
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,160
Yeah, they're larger than the ones we have. It would help, especially for flags like that.

134
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,200
Right. Yeah, those big red ones I have. Bring those back. I had

135
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,240
some big ones. I don't know what happened to them. They probably broke.

136
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,280
Probably got them from Harbor Freight. I did. If your sons were anything like

137
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,320
my sons, whenever I visit them, I'm like, oh, there's my shirt.

138
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,360
Oh, there's my this. There's my that. There's my this. There's my cup. There's my cup.

139
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,400
But these are really... These are like five foot clamps. I'm like, why would they need those?

140
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,440
Oh, no. That's the ones I have over at my house. Are they blue?

141
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,480
No. Oh, you're missing those. Awkward. No, these are the red ones.

142
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,520
All right. Yeah, I don't know where they're at. That's strange for that

143
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,560
to be misplaced. Yeah. Those are... Those hang in a particular place.

144
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:41,600
Yeah, they're not stuck under something. All in all, there was...

145
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,640
For being in the mid-fifties, you know, I was excited about going to the doctor

146
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,680
and I'm telling you, for those guys out there, you know, those dudes, like I said, that struggle with us.

147
00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:53,720
We struggle. We do. And, you know, it's about discipline and, you know,

148
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,760
it's mind over matter, you know. There's different stuff that I do.

149
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,800
I'm about to start a different thing. I was fasting, you know, like

150
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,840
I wouldn't eat dinner or I wouldn't eat food for Monday all day. So I'd eat dinner

151
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,880
Sunday and I wouldn't eat again a Tuesday morning. I'm going to scrap that program.

152
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,920
The program worked. It was successful. I would call it a success.

153
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,960
But there is a...

154
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,000
Based on the feedback that I got from a couple friends that are

155
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,040
doing a different style and that was backed up by

156
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:30,080
Dr. Culpepper today because Dr. Culpepper said

157
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:34,120
he's doing it. He's doing... So what he's doing is basically he gives you

158
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,160
there's a window that you eat. It's basically six hours.

159
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:42,200
Intermittent fasting. That's what that is. It's just you pick your six hours and you just

160
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,240
eat during that six hours. And you gorge. You just absolutely gorge yourself.

161
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:50,280
Two whole pizzas. I'm thinking no, but...

162
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,320
Five pizzas. Let's go ding ding ding ding.

163
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,360
It's like one of those hot dog... I've only got six hours.

164
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,400
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Nobody makes that noise.

165
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,440
Oh, that was a... Oh, they do for a reason. That was a ballpark.

166
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,480
That's that... That's the worst

167
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,520
video ever. Yeah, that was funny, man. I about blacked out laughing.

168
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,560
That was fantastic. It was unexpected. I wish we had the whole thing, right?

169
00:11:18,560 --> 00:11:22,600
I wish we had video on this that we could actually show that. So you know what? Look, the dudes

170
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,640
I guess out there that struggle... There is light at the end of the tunnel. At the end of the day,

171
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,680
it's about discipline. It's about you. It's about you taking it serious.

172
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:34,720
Period. No? And our Mr. Producer's kind of looking at me like, yeah,

173
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,760
yeah, yeah. Guess what, bitch? You're going to be this old as one day as well, all right?

174
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,800
Yeah, but they don't think about it until way later. No, neither do we. We don't think about it either.

175
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,840
Something has to happen. That's true for us, too, right? Something has to happen for us to get our attention.

176
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,880
Or something has to happen to where we... There's something we want to do that we can't do anymore.

177
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,920
And then suddenly we're like, damn, I need to lose a couple pounds.

178
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,960
Or I need to... You know, there's usually some sort of... Like you can't reach and clean your taint very well.

179
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:03,000
That's a big one. That's number one, actually. That's number one.

180
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,040
Taint inaccessibility. Yes. I haven't

181
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:11,080
reached that point yet. No, I haven't either. I'm just thinking that'd be a step.

182
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:15,120
So you can't see your taint rings. So there are some times where I have a difficult time

183
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:19,160
putting on shoes. The gut gets in the way. It's not just that.

184
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:23,200
It's just uncomfortable. Because the gut's in the way. You have to roll around on the floor and kind of awkwardly.

185
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,240
Because my body can't contort that far down.

186
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,280
But now it's better. But there was a time I was like, god damn.

187
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,320
I tell you, I was the same way. When I was at my heaviest, it was hard.

188
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,360
I could still do it, but the gut got in the way. Your stomach was in the way.

189
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,400
I have big poles attached to the heels of my shoes.

190
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,440
And I just grabbed the big pole and pulled it onto my foot.

191
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,480
I don't have to do anything. Yeah, that shoe horn.

192
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,520
One of my kids got me an extended shoe horn. It was like a three foot shoe horn.

193
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,560
So there really are one of those things? I was joking.

194
00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:03,600
I've got one that's next to where I put my shoes on. It's fantastic.

195
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,640
Do you have the things that you could just put your heel in and it'll pull your shoe off for you?

196
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,680
I do, but I don't need those yet. You put your shoe in there and it kind of

197
00:13:11,680 --> 00:13:15,720
clamps on your shoe. It's designed more for like boots, but

198
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,760
you can use it for, I guess, for regular shoes. They make it for shoes too.

199
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,800
They have like the medical. There's the big old shoe horn.

200
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,840
My dad had one. Dude, that is a

201
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,880
lost tool. Meaning? No it's not.

202
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,920
Meaning people don't, I don't think a lot of people, do the younger generations use this?

203
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,960
Hell no. Not yet. They don't need it. They can f***ing bend over and put their shoes on.

204
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:44,000
Well actually they don't give a s*** either because they like squash their feet in the shoes. They damage it.

205
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,040
They don't care. They don't pay for it. And then you just wiggle the foot until the thing.

206
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:52,080
Hey I need a new pair of shoes. Did you just give me the bird?

207
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,120
Do you? He's old school.

208
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:00,160
You actually are an old soul in a lot of different areas so I can see that.

209
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:04,200
Alright, what else we got? Well you know,

210
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,240
so the doctor and exercise and the trampoline

211
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,280
and you know what else is going on? You know Harris had picked her new vice president

212
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,320
today. Mr. Walls? Walls? Tim Walls? Walls?

213
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,360
Walls. Walls. Walls. So it's apparently, it's being panned.

214
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,400
Obviously it's going to be panned by the right but it's even being panned by the left.

215
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,440
Because they were like, you're supposed to attract people from the moderates and

216
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,480
this is more left than she is. Well look at Minnesota. It's a s*** hole.

217
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,520
It's a s*** hole right now. And Shapiro was from Pennsylvania.

218
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,560
They need Pennsylvania right? They can't. He's Jewish.

219
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,600
They hate Jews. It's so f***ed up man. And this guy Walls,

220
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,640
I mean this is the stupid m****** that was wanting to put tampons

221
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,680
in the fourth graders bathrooms. I believe he did that.

222
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,720
I mean what the f*** is he thinking? He also wants to give drivers license

223
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,760
to illegal aliens. I wonder why. Because there's a little check box on there

224
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:04,800
that says register to vote. Boom.

225
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,840
That's just a ploy to steal votes right? Well that's their angle.

226
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,880
So you know what? It's just he's a, look he may be a nice guy. I don't

227
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,920
care. He can go f*** himself. Well they're trying to pan him as

228
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,960
the mid-America values. Mid-western.

229
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,000
Oh he's the h*** of the midwestern. You know what? He's not.

230
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,040
So what else is there? He tried, he joined the military. Did you guys know that?

231
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,080
Yes. He was in the National Guard. And they were about to send him

232
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,120
overseas or somewhere. They were going to send him to Iraq. And he got scared and said no?

233
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:41,160
He backed out. You can't do that can you? He quit.

234
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,200
Oh he just quit. He quit. Is that the same

235
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,240
as dodged, draft dodging? I don't know what the deal is. How long was he in though?

236
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,280
Because if he had served his four years, you could quit at any time.

237
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,320
Yeah he's allowed to decline. I don't know those details but the thing is

238
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,360
that he was in the service, whatever it was. He was being sent to Iraq

239
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,400
and he quit before he loaded. Actually I think I said it correct. I think at the end of those four years you re-up

240
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,440
for another set of four. Four or two. Yeah it's not

241
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:13,480
like you just, it's month to month.

242
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,520
But you know, but JD Vance, he went over to Iraq, he didn't say no.

243
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,560
Hmm. Strange. And he was in the Marines.

244
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,600
Look, I mean there's no comparison. You know what? It's just

245
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,640
I gotta give a shout out to Josh.

246
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,680
What's his last name? Shapiro. Josh Shapiro. You know

247
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,720
he's a butt nugget but he had a great performance

248
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,760
today, tonight with the, when?

249
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,800
Oh I didn't see this. Oh this was happening earlier today.

250
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,840
He spoke very well. I mean he was. For what? There were like 10,000 people.

251
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,880
I've never seen a Democratic rally set up like this before. He was

252
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,920
out there promoting Harris. It was like a Trump one. Because Harris was going to jump out there.

253
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,960
And he was going to announce and she was going to speak and he went out there and paved the path for her man.

254
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:06,000
I mean there's no denying that there's excitement on the left right now

255
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,040
because of, you know, because they don't have Biden anymore. Right? They now have Harris. And now Harris is

256
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:14,080
I think they're all kind of being full of shit about being as excited as they are about her.

257
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,120
I think that's going to wear off. It will. Because once we start

258
00:17:18,120 --> 00:17:22,160
hammering them with the truth. Well she doesn't have to give, she can hide

259
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:26,200
for 90 days. She's going to hide the entire time. Because

260
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,240
she opens her mouth is not good for her. Right. Right. So she's going to do the same thing.

261
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,280
Because nobody can stand the way she talks. Remember Biden did it and it worked. Yep.

262
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,320
Right? So she's going to do it because it works. Yep. Yep.

263
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,360
I mean there was a time when that was not acceptable. You couldn't not have like

264
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:46,400
three debates. You know what I mean? Yeah. At least you have three debates.

265
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,440
At least three debates and everybody was really interested to hear the

266
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,480
issues and they were really interested to see how they handled each other

267
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,520
and they handled the questions. And now it's like he's a jerk. I'm not going to give him the time of day.

268
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,560
No they're weird. Oh JD Vance is weird. Really? That's all you've got?

269
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,600
Yep. That's what we've reduced to. It's like

270
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:10,640
idiocracy. We're literally just stupid. And the crazy thing is that

271
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,680
it's just another magic word. You know weird was a magic

272
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,720
word that all the broadcasters started talking about. Yeah isn't that kind of odd?

273
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,760
Being a waltz is the new word now. Oh the Midwestern, the heart of the

274
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,800
Midwestern area. You know man. Just show all the

275
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,840
meme with you're weird but all the purple haired wolf

276
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,880
people on the liberal side. Oh that's what they did. That was so great.

277
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,920
It was like they were just starting pulling up all these things from the left and they were like

278
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,960
yeah JD Vance is weird. They're like yeah JD Vance is weird.

279
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,000
Look at that. Yeah you want to have sex change

280
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,040
for minors. Right. JD's weird. Alright so what

281
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:55,080
is this? You asked to put a Robbie Starbuck on you.

282
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,120
What was that all about? Well Robbie Starbuck is

283
00:18:59,120 --> 00:19:03,160
I don't know if he's a reporter or what the hell he is. I'm not sure what he is either but he's

284
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,200
the one that's kind of whistle blowing. Yeah he's big on

285
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,240
Twitter and he's kind of

286
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,280
investigating these companies and he investigated John Deere.

287
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:19,320
Oh here we go. He's a filmmaker and activist. Okay yes and I think he's

288
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:23,360
sniffing out companies that are woke. Correct. Well especially CEOs.

289
00:19:23,360 --> 00:19:27,400
Go ahead. Correct and he got John Deere

290
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,440
and John Deere jumped on it.

291
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,480
They squashed it. And undid some things. In a good way. Yes in a good way.

292
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:39,520
Yeah they said yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. We didn't know that was going on. We shutting it down.

293
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,560
Now the new one is Harley Davidson. Unbelievable. And

294
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,600
they're doing some ridiculous things talking about

295
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,640
another Bud Light where you don't know your customer. Even worse. Yeah and I saw some

296
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,680
footage of the Sturgis rally which is going on right now.

297
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,720
And it was they drove by the Harley booth or area

298
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,760
and there was hardly anybody in there. They said typically that is

299
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,800
packed. At Sturgis. Wow. Dude come

300
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,840
on that's crazy. Yeah. Oh that's why you got to go with Indian.

301
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,880
That's what I did. So yeah so Indian is probably going to see a resurgence

302
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,920
and look I'm not saying Indians bad or good but you didn't do that

303
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,960
because. No I did it because I like Indians. Yeah they've been

304
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,000
around. They've been around. I was deliberately avoiding Harley Davidson. Daughter feather.

305
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,040
Not because I don't I think I was avoiding it simply because

306
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:36,080
it's like that's what everybody does. So I was just kind of researched

307
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:40,120
Indian and I thought it was a cool and it's older than Harley Davidson right. Yep.

308
00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:44,160
And it's like you know through and through American of course so is Harley Davidson but

309
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,200
anyway well that's what the issue is is their new CEO is from Germany

310
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,240
and he is a climate activist. He's an eco

311
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:56,280
warrior. Great. Hi my name is Klaus. Klaus.

312
00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,320
You're a carbon dioxide. He's destroying my world. And he said

313
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,360
one of the things he said and we may be able to find some of the quotes that

314
00:21:04,360 --> 00:21:08,400
this guy has said it's either it's either the CEO

315
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,440
or a board member for Harley. I think it's a CEO said that he

316
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:16,480
is a climate Taliban. He's going to be

317
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,520
that type of person. Oh that's great. How proud. He called himself

318
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,560
that. Yeah that's great. So he's gonna he's gonna like

319
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,600
do guerrilla warfare on on what like large companies that produce a lot

320
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,640
of. No. Does that mean he's gonna go to China and start destroying them? No think about

321
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,680
Taliban. What do they do? They oppress. Right. The Taliban

322
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,720
don't let the you know don't let women they have to they can't go to school.

323
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,760
They have to wear all the you know they have to cover themselves head to toe. They no music

324
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,800
no dancing. How does that translate to the climate? Meaning he's gonna go

325
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,840
ugly. He's gonna he's gonna be. Yeah but if he really wants to go

326
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,880
ugly and he really wants to make a mark on the world then he needs to address China

327
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,920
because China is the number one China and India actually are the number one

328
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,960
those are the guys that are causing all the pollution in the world. Hong Kong.

329
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:09,000
I mean where do you get your shit? You know your rubber dog shit's made in fucking Hong Kong. You know

330
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,040
that's the way I took it though. He's gonna go oppressive. Fuck. He is not gonna do anything.

331
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,080
So Harley Davidson keep an eye on the stock although you know you have

332
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:21,120
Black Rock and Vanguard all them trying to you know they'll infuse.

333
00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:25,160
And prop them up so it doesn't look that bad. What do they call that short selling?

334
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,200
I don't know how they do it but. How about the market? Wow.

335
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,240
Well before we move on to that Harley Davidson I also I watched a video on it

336
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,280
and there's many many Harley stores closing.

337
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,320
There are. Not because of this. You're saying they were struggling

338
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:46,360
already to begin with. No some of this because they said Harley is trying to push out these

339
00:22:46,360 --> 00:22:52,400
legacy owners who aren't subscribing to the new culture.

340
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:57,400
This is going to destroy the company if it really really

341
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,440
if they're really serious about it it's not gonna. There's one in California

342
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,480
that's been there for a hundred years just closed. I can promise you

343
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,520
manly manly manly man. I mean this is the symbol

344
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,560
like we thought Bud Light was a manly manly symbol right.

345
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,600
Harley Davidson is a manly manly manly manly symbol.

346
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,640
And guys are not gonna. These dudes that ride these bikes are not gonna deal with it.

347
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,680
More than 40% after announcing the DEI initiatives.

348
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,720
You know what but then I saw on Snopes that this is not true. Go woke go broke.

349
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,760
Hold on scroll up. Go scroll down. Yeah this is a fact check.

350
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,800
Yeah go down. Is it true or not.

351
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,840
So in August for Harley Davidson sales dropped more than 40%

352
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,880
after that company D labeled satire. It's not that it's rumor spreading

353
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,920
not true. But you know it could it could gain steam.

354
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,960
I mean look what happened to Bud Light man. Yeah but do we even believe Snopes anymore.

355
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,000
No I mean you know I don't believe any of these facts. Yeah they truly fuck

356
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,000
are they because they're a bunch of frickin bought pieces of. Yeah they tried to gain some

357
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,040
credibility with that whole few good people on both sides.

358
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,080
Yeah well this is recently came out so they're not gonna be able to

359
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,120
report their sales until the quarter. Oh yeah it's too early. Once the quarter ends

360
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:18,160
in September if they're on the physical calendar they'll

361
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,200
or the. That's when you're gonna see it. Yeah it's too early.

362
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:26,240
Because this just kind of broke the end of July.

363
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,280
Yeah Robbie Starbucker that's Harley on July 23rd. How so

364
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:34,320
interesting. So he I guess he's just he's not doing anything like

365
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,360
who are those people that do those you know underground cameras.

366
00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:42,400
Project Veritas. Yeah so he's not doing stuff like that. He's just researching these guys and they're

367
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,440
very public out in the open. Correct. This is what they stand for. Yeah. And he's

368
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,480
being vocal about it. Yeah and I think he's getting the internal like presentation

369
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,520
and communications and shit like that. Unbelievable.

370
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:58,560
I mean I wouldn't even think it's possible. I mean you talk

371
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,600
about really not knowing your customers. And John Deere. John Deere is almost the same

372
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,640
level. Farmers. Are you kidding me? Robbie Starbuck

373
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,680
posted like two hours ago on X formerly on his Twitter.

374
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,720
I think it's hilarious that Tim Walton's framing Republicans is weird when

375
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,760
he thinks that women can have a penis and men can get pregnant. Oh and he

376
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,800
put tampons in boys bathrooms in every school in Minnesota. You're the weird guy in this

377
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,800
election. No shit. Per his post. Agreed. I think that whole weird

378
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,840
thing's going to come back to bite them in the ass. Yeah. I mean

379
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,880
you're weird for what? For having American values? Family values?

380
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,920
It's juvenile. Right? I mean it's just stupid. I mean if that's all they've got

381
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,960
they're in trouble. I heard something on the radio. It's almost like there's

382
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,000
a early 20s social media team

383
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,040
who got bullied in middle school running their campaign. Right. And they're

384
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:55,080
getting back. And they're like he's weird. Right. You know.

385
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,120
It's like a young kid term. I know. It's silly.

386
00:25:59,120 --> 00:26:03,160
It is. You know what? I don't care. You know what?

387
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,200
It's going to work itself out. I don't even know. You know honestly

388
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,240
if I felt there were going to be fair elections I wouldn't even be concerned about this.

389
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:15,280
It's just I don't trust the elections. I don't either. And when it comes up time

390
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:19,320
they're already talking about it. You know he wants to push the

391
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:23,360
illegal vote that are here for voting. You know get your driver's license

392
00:26:23,360 --> 00:26:27,400
and get to vote. I mean this is just nonsense. It's just nonsense.

393
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:31,440
And what the hell. I just hope that certain

394
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,480
people wake up. Right. You know and it's never going to happen. But you know what?

395
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,520
I think part of us need to wake up too. I mean what part. I would like

396
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,560
for some Democrats to call us out. I mean show us some sides of the

397
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,600
Republican that are bad. You know what about

398
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,640
Republicans are bad. I mean what is it that we want to cut out

399
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,680
from voting things that we're not going to fund anymore. We're not going to

400
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,720
fund Sunday night fund for certain communities

401
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,760
to go and bowl. You know I don't know. I mean I think

402
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,800
they definitely do. They definitely do the same thing that the left does which is take things out of

403
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,840
context. You know what I mean. I mean like I'll watch a speech right

404
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,880
or see the live footage of something and then I'll read

405
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,920
you know the Breitbart article on it and I'll be like dude seriously that's not

406
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,960
what they said. That's not what they meant. I watched it. Don't be

407
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:28,000
doing the same shit that they are. You know what I mean. Well we said on the last podcast that we

408
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,040
need to play as dirty as they do. I guess. Well even Josh Shapiro during

409
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:36,080
his rant today which you know it was highly energized but even

410
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,120
during his rant he's saying false stuff. He's like saying books.

411
00:27:40,120 --> 00:27:44,160
Yeah it's like the banning books is like dude dude they're not banning

412
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:48,200
books. It's so stupid. They're taking sexualized books

413
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,240
out of the libraries where little kids could be reading them. Come on.

414
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:56,280
Let's be real about what they're talking about here. But they're not.

415
00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:00,320
You know they're fucking. They twist it because no one's gonna

416
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,360
fact check it. It's a sound bite. It's an easy attack.

417
00:28:04,360 --> 00:28:08,400
And you keep hearing it. Oh they want to ban books. They want to ban books. Yeah they're taking us back

418
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,440
to Nazi Germany where they're burning books. Shut up.

419
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:16,480
So dumb. But you know what people believe in it.

420
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:20,520
Coworkers believe in it. I'm just like I just look at them I'm like

421
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,560
what you really believe that. And they're like you really believe that.

422
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,600
I'm like we're done. We're so hopeless. It's never gonna get better.

423
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,640
So when do preseason football games start. They already have. Well the

424
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,680
Hall of Fame game already started. That was last week. Last week. Oh really.

425
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,720
Is it this Thursday? This Thursday Friday. The 11th. Cowboys play

426
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,760
this weekend. Really? Yeah. So this Thursday Friday I think there are some games

427
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,800
and there are some games on Saturday and Sunday this week. Yes.

428
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,840
Very cool. I know. I'm excited. They'll play. This is maybe the first quarter.

429
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,880
Yeah they'll maybe play one quarter of the starters.

430
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,920
Oh not even. Doesn't matter. It's kind of exciting getting the fever.

431
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,960
Get going. Get the old fantasy football stuff pumping. And it does get you

432
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:09,000
excited about your team because you know you're watching the guys that are the future.

433
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:13,040
Right. I mean or the people that you want to make the team or who's gonna make the team.

434
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:17,080
I still enjoy watching my team when they have the preseason games.

435
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,120
You know I don't tune out. It's like oh god it's some scrub or whatever.

436
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:25,160
I want to see how they do. Sometimes I do like in the late third and fourth quarter where it's just like

437
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,200
Yeah yeah yeah yeah. And the football is not as good.

438
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:33,240
Oh yeah no it's clearly. Then they really get to the bottom of the barrel

439
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,280
giving somebody who has a long shot to make the team. Giving him some time.

440
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,320
Then they cut him after that game. Or during the game.

441
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:45,360
Yeah. Which is unfortunate because all those guys are good.

442
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,400
They're all amazing. They're all good. They're all better than you know 98 percent of everyone

443
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:53,440
else. But you know they're just not quite good enough. And it's unfortunate.

444
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,480
Have you heard about the new kickoff rules? Have you heard about

445
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,520
the new kickoff rules? I've heard that there are new rules. Dude it is

446
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,560
wild. I watched it during the Hall of Fame game. Is this for an attempt to not get people hurt?

447
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:09,600
Do they use like a crazy ball and a bounce everywhere? Yes. So check this.

448
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:13,640
So the defense. The kick. It's an eight sided ball.

449
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:17,680
How does this work? How does this work?

450
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,720
The kicking team is on the 40 yard line of the

451
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,760
other team. On the receiving team. Do they have like weapons

452
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,800
and implements? It's like jousting. Yes. Like a joust. And they have

453
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,840
pull arms. NFL new kickoff rules. Maces. And they're required

454
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:37,880
to scream like banshees as they charge each other. So what is it? So they

455
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,920
set the ball on the 40 yard line? That's ridiculous. Well that's where the guys line up.

456
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,960
On the 40 yard line. It's relatively a short kick. And then the kick

457
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,000
they have to put it within a zone. It has to land within

458
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,040
like one yard. You know these two yard lines. So you have to be an accurate kicker.

459
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:58,080
Yes. And if you go beyond that what happens? It's really interesting.

460
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:02,120
Well there's some merit to that. So they kick the ball and you have to kick it

461
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:06,160
within this certain area. Yeah play it. Go ahead and play it. What they're trying to do is trying to

462
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:10,200
get these guys who get the big old head of steam and just plowin' people over.

463
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:14,240
Let's see what this is. Oh okay I was wrong. They're actually on the 35 yard line.

464
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:18,280
So look at that. It's so

465
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,320
crazy. So nobody can get a full head of steam. That's a perfect

466
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:26,360
way to phrase that. So it's almost like

467
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:30,400
an onside kick. But you know they're farther apart than that.

468
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:34,440
And they have to land it within a certain zone. So you can't

469
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,480
do onside kicks anymore. I don't know what they're going to do for that. Because the kickers

470
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:42,520
are too close. Well they're way back for one thing.

471
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:46,560
Yeah they're way back at the 30. The kickers way back and then they have to

472
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:50,600
drop it in between two zones. So this is the XFL.

473
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:54,640
Are they adopted what the XFL did? Yes basically. I'm not sure it's exactly like that.

474
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,680
But it's really close. So the kickoff team blockers

475
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,720
can now move into the ball hits the ground. Do the hall of fame kickoff. Cause that's hard.

476
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,760
They've already played it. They've already done it. So hall of fame game kickoff.

477
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,800
I'm OK because man some of those guys just get destroyed.

478
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,840
Yeah you know I'm not against that either. I think that you know we

479
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,880
need to do something because that is exactly right. Because they've got what fucking

480
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,920
50 60 70 yards to run. And by the time they get down

481
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,960
there bam they're going to level somebody. So if you shorten that time for them to

482
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:31,000
get that impact. That's OK. All the way on the left.

483
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,040
Oh yeah. Let's see that one. Do you have sound?

484
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:39,080
Sorry this video is not available. What the hell? Bitch. There's more I carry though.

485
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:43,120
Make sure the computer is recording as well.

486
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:47,160
Oh yeah. It is recording? Anyway I think it's going to be interesting this

487
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:51,200
kickoff thing. I think it adds a little kind of

488
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,240
new excitement to it. So we'll see how that goes. I'm kind of curious what we know about sound.

489
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,280
I don't know. Well there's nothing playing.

490
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,320
Oh yeah there's no video at the moment. Anyway let's see

491
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,360
what else about the NFL. Nothing. I haven't heard too much.

492
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,400
Actually. I get little updates of the Cowboys.

493
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,440
I get little updates of the Bengals. You know what's kind of funny is I see some

494
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,480
memes about the there was a DAC and there was CD-Land

495
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,520
where they're doing AI where they start talking

496
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,560
shit about DACs like saying yeah they're going to

497
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,600
get me fucking paid. Have you seen those memes?

498
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,640
Oh yeah they're very well done. I wish we had audio we can hear.

499
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:39,680
Anyway so they had CD-Land saying it and they're just talking shit.

500
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,720
It's like they need to pay me and they're doing the little lip sync

501
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:47,760
thing. I think personally I think CD-Land needs

502
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,800
another season to prove himself personally. He had a really good

503
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,840
year last year. So what is he? Is this his second year or third year? This is his

504
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,880
fourth year. Fourth year. Okay. But he's been consistent?

505
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:03,920
No? Well he had a good year last year. Yeah for sure.

506
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,960
I don't know how he I don't remember how he did. Especially in that first playoff round.

507
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,000
Yeah I did smoke him. Yeah. Sorry

508
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,040
shot at Cowboys fans there. Anyway let's see

509
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:20,080
oh then we got the fantasy football coming up. Oh which by the way I need to send out to the team

510
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:24,120
that you're making the brisket. I know it kind of made it sound like I'm making a brisket.

511
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:28,160
Whatever. But you're making the brisket. Is that enough? I think

512
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,200
is that enough food you think? Oh really? Brisket? 12 guys.

513
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:36,240
12 large guys. Bad guys. 11.

514
00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:40,280
One girl. She might become an in person. Gross. Don't say it like that.

515
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,320
Now it's a party. Yeah. No.

516
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:48,360
Not a party. Anyway so

517
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:52,400
yeah we have the fantasy football coming up. It's going to be interesting

518
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:56,440
with the new player. That should be kind of interesting.

519
00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:00,480
Oh don't forget we have to do that new trophy.

520
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:04,520
Shit. I'll take the lead on that. We're going to do a new trophy. You know what I'm talking about right?

521
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,560
Oh yeah. Mr. Jeff brought up the idea of

522
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:12,600
Do you think we should call it the blues trophy? Or should we call

523
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:16,640
his name out? I think we need to do Bain. Think so? The Bain award.

524
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,680
Okay. I'm cool with that. Or is it the high points?

525
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:24,720
Yeah. High point award. The high point Bain award.

526
00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:28,760
Yeah. Okay. Go Bain or go away.

527
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,800
Yeah. Alright so I'll take the lead on that. I need to remember that.

528
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,840
Well we have an engraver so. Well we haven't really tried engraving.

529
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,880
Amen. Now's the time. Ooh we have

530
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,920
audio now. Nice. What was that? A little coffee grinder in the back?

531
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,960
Plastic music for relaxation. There's two coffee cups

532
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:53,000
and a blanket in front of a fire. Is this the beginning of a porn video?

533
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:57,040
What do you got there Mr. Producer? Is this one of your favorite collection ones?

534
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:01,080
This came straight out of Mr. Austin producers sound log 5. Oh look it says it's number one

535
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:05,120
in his list. It does. Four hours of classic music relaxation

536
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:09,160
with your little beamer. Intimate. Alright so did you guys

537
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:13,200
get a chance to watch the Olympics at all? Oh yeah I've been watching it every night.

538
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:17,240
Yeah. I missed several days because of the weekend but

539
00:36:17,240 --> 00:36:21,280
man we watched last night it was great. I missed the pole vaulting thing.

540
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:25,320
Did you guys watch last night? No that was the decathlon

541
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:29,360
pole vaulter I guess who just has a huge neck. Oh the one that knocked the bar

542
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:33,400
off with his junk. I've never seen the video on that. Can you find the video on that Mr.

543
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:37,440
Producer? I just showed it to my wife. Yeah the pole vaulter. Just put in pole vaulter

544
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,480
big junk.

545
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,520
For those sheltered folks out there, you know the dudes I guess,

546
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:49,560
we didn't really go out of our way to find this. They found us but this guy was

547
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,600
pole vaulter Anthony, what's his name? Anthony

548
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:57,640
Amarati. I have not seen this.

549
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,680
I wonder if they're actually going to show it or just little stills. No they got little stills

550
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:05,720
but they don't show anymore. Get the fuck out of here. Show me a video on this.

551
00:37:05,720 --> 00:37:09,760
Mr. Producer find a video. He's like cranking out on it or something.

552
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,800
Yeah see they didn't show it. Yeah well they have to. We have to find a video on it

553
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,840
because I guarantee there's a video on it. Oh god really? Yeah. Well they're going all

554
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:21,880
out on this one. Alright find a video. Look at this it's all zoomed in right there.

555
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,920
Well you're not on video. Click on video.

556
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,960
Carly Davidson pole vaulter hits nuts.

557
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:34,000
Oh boy. Alright let's see here. I think it's that one right there. 2024.

558
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:38,040
No it's not that one. Not this one. That's definitely not the Olympics. I don't know if there's

559
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,080
any mountains in there. This is right here. Pole driver gets hit. Well maybe not. I don't know.

560
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:46,120
Why is it this mainstream? Do they fucking pole it?

561
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:50,160
It's none of those either. 2024. I found it.

562
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:54,200
I found it on Twitter. YouTube is problematic.

563
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,240
That's unfortunate. It should be really really easy to find this.

564
00:37:58,240 --> 00:38:02,280
What is the deal with this? Oh this is retarded. They're screen

565
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:06,320
they're censoring it for some reason. It just happened for crying out loud.

566
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,360
I mean this the whole Olympics thing. This is another reason why I don't want to watch it.

567
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:14,400
You know it just I'm so sick of the bullshit drama that goes in there.

568
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:18,440
Is this it?

569
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:22,480
Well that's a different view. Yeah. That's no that's not.

570
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:26,520
There it goes. Well whatever.

571
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:30,560
Oh I thought he it made him knock the bar down. You're just saying. No it does.

572
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:34,600
Oh it did. Oh it did. Yeah.

573
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,640
That can't feel good either.

574
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:42,680
Oh my god.

575
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:46,720
Well I guess it could be worse reasons for knocking the bar down.

576
00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:50,760
Good for him right? I told you. You need to make sure you put that thing away.

577
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,800
I bet he's going to get you in trouble someday. You may get some nice

578
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,840
sponsorships from like you know.

579
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,880
That's horrible.

580
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,920
Oh gosh that's funny. I guess it's a good problem to have. Yeah.

581
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,960
Why are we? Alright I'm done watching all this. Sorry.

582
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:15,000
Finally. That's it. Finally they showed it. It bounces. Oh well we missed it.

583
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:19,040
Oh it's in the back of this? Yes. Oh never mind. Alright.

584
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,080
Whatever. Alright. So he's trying to knock down the bar.

585
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:27,120
But what else? Anything else from the Olympics that was kind of eye

586
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:31,160
catching? How did the the gymnastic girls do?

587
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:35,200
It was good. What is the goal ratio? What is the metal ratio?

588
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:39,240
Simone Biles got overall gold. She's good.

589
00:39:39,240 --> 00:39:43,280
She's extremely strong. If you're talking about the overall metal count we're killing it. We're like

590
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:47,320
75, 76 versus the next one's like 40 something. Well it's more than that

591
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:51,360
because we're starting to win the track. Well the gold we have 24 golds.

592
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,400
We have 31 silver, 31 bronze and we are in number one position.

593
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,440
So we have 24 gold. Republic of China has 22.

594
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,480
The next one down Australia has 14.

595
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:07,520
Overall we have 86 medals and the next

596
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,560
one below is China with 59. So United States of America is in the lead

597
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:15,600
across the board. Yeah we're doing great. I mean we did great in swimming. We did great in gymnastics.

598
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:19,640
We did great in track. There was, well speaking of track, long term running,

599
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,680
long distance running, there was some weird scenario. I'm not going to even attempt to find it

600
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,720
because that's a fucking train wreck. But you know there was some, an African country

601
00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:31,760
I don't know which one it was but there were these two guys that were running and there's a

602
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,800
Chinese guy behind them and these two African runners

603
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,840
allow the China guy, they even like hey come in front of us,

604
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,880
to allow the Chinese guy to get ahead of them. To win? To win!

605
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,920
I mean I don't know if they win first place but they beat them to so it doesn't matter.

606
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:51,960
Maybe that was part of the deal with their you know Belt and Road, what is it?

607
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:56,000
Belt and Road project that the China government is doing all over the world.

608
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,040
For cobalt mining. You guys don't know what I'm talking about?

609
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:04,080
They come in and they do infrastructure projects and they basically

610
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:08,120
they don't bankrupt them but they make them beholden to China forever.

611
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:12,160
And it's called Belt and Something. I forget what it's called but anyway

612
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:16,200
maybe that was part of the condition is let the Chinese guy win, win the race.

613
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:20,240
Could be. Well I'm enjoying the Olympics. My wife and I are watching it.

614
00:41:20,240 --> 00:41:24,280
We're watching the evening time which is a condensed version so we can

615
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:28,320
get through it pretty quickly in about an hour. You know we don't want to watch the

616
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,360
things we don't want to watch. Yeah because we were watching gymnastics during

617
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,400
like the day. Like I guess when it was actually happening. Right.

618
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:40,440
And the time between when they finish and when they get their score was painful.

619
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:44,480
Oh yeah. I was like what the fuck? What's taking so long? And then I realized

620
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:48,520
we always watch the Olympics at night. Every single Olympics and it is

621
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:52,560
condensed. So anyway it's been exciting though. Yeah it's been good.

622
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,600
I enjoy it. Like did you see the men's 100 meter?

623
00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,640
Yeah that's I know he won. No allows one.

624
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:04,680
Dude he won by a thousandth of a second.

625
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:08,720
It was yeah he was they had to get out of the third number because they actually tied.

626
00:42:08,720 --> 00:42:12,760
Yes thousandths of a second. Crazy. But what's crazy is when you see the

627
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,800
finishing numbers they're the same. Yes. Because they only go to the hundredths.

628
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:20,840
So they went to the thousandths. If you look at the photo finish the guy's

629
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:24,880
foot is actually further crosses the line first but it's actually the

630
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,920
chest that they measure who crosses first. Oh is that right? Yes.

631
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,960
Ah interesting. So if you look at the picture the foot is way out.

632
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:37,000
God it was so close. It was crazy.

633
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,040
That was exciting. Yeah that was a good one.

634
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:45,080
I was going to ask you another thing. So the pole vaulter who won the gold.

635
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:49,120
I have a problem with this. Okay I was going to ask you guys if you had a problem with it.

636
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:53,160
Sean I'd love your opinion about this as well. So this guy was

637
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:57,200
born in Louisiana. Completely 100% American.

638
00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:01,240
Went to LSU. Went to LSU. Still going to LSU or maybe

639
00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:05,280
maybe he's done. I don't know. I don't know. So he is 100%

640
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:09,320
American but his dad. No it was his mom.

641
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:13,360
His mom pole vaulted for or competed

642
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:17,400
for Sweden. Right so he's going to compete for Sweden. I guess out of respect for his

643
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:21,440
mom or honor for his mom. But dude that's not Sweden.

644
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:25,480
You're not a Swedish athlete. You are an American athlete.

645
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,520
I don't get it. I have a problem with that. I have a problem with it too.

646
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,560
He was born here raised here 100%. Does he have dual citizenship?

647
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:37,600
I don't know. I don't know. Probably ought to check that because if he has

648
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:41,640
dual citizenship then yeah. I'll tell you what he's got a

649
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,680
smoking hot Swedish model girlfriend. That's for sure.

650
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:49,720
Oh there you go. It qualifies him. Yeah so maybe we should just lay off him.

651
00:43:49,720 --> 00:43:53,760
He's doing something right. He did. And he didn't hit his junk on the bar.

652
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,800
Because she owns it in her pocket. Oh she's got

653
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:01,840
half of it already. Well you know what look all these

654
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,880
Olympic athletes you know they're all

655
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,920
well manicured. You know these guys women are

656
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,960
manicured. I mean they're fucking workout all the time. They're just like

657
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,960
cultured. They're just like bodies. They just fucking

658
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:22,000
they're junk. They're pelting. I thought you mean they're groomer.

659
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:26,040
So there was another girl Luana Alonzo.

660
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:30,080
She was some sort of she got disqualified.

661
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:34,120
What's the story behind this? Was she strolling around nude or something?

662
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:38,160
Apparently she got kicked out because of inappropriate behavior and then she came back and said

663
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:42,200
I did not get kicked out of her because of inappropriate behavior.

664
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:46,240
So she created an inappropriate atmosphere with her behavior.

665
00:44:46,240 --> 00:44:50,280
She's from Paraguay. But I don't understand. She's a swimmer?

666
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:54,320
Well that's a different one. That's an American.

667
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:58,360
No this is from she's from Paraguay. There we go.

668
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,400
The real reason Glamorous Olympic Swimmer 20 was kicked out.

669
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,440
Alright let's find out what this is all about here.

670
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:10,480
Luana was told to leave after officials said she had created

671
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:14,520
an inappropriate atmosphere with her behavior. Stunning

672
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:18,560
20 year old blonde. Yeah but well the stunning 20 year old blonde

673
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:22,600
who lost her event on the first day of competition had been seen walking around

674
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:26,640
in her own choice of outfits rather than the official

675
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:30,680
kit. So if you scroll down a little bit Mr. Producer so what the deal is I'm not sure if this is

676
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:34,720
an exact photo. Hold on. No she wasn't walking around in that.

677
00:45:34,720 --> 00:45:38,760
She was also seen spotted socializing with other athletes and was said to

678
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:42,800
be distracting her teammates still competing. Oh that's not good.

679
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:46,840
So in other words she was all being sexy as a person.

680
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,880
Oh and she's also being pulled back by her team. Not the Olympics.

681
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:54,920
So this is the Paraguay Olympic team was like yeah

682
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:58,960
you're causing a problem. Get your ass back home. Interesting.

683
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:03,000
Well you know there's something to be said for that. But she's also trying to

684
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:07,040
like probably boost her social media. Yeah sell her brand right.

685
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:11,080
I mean there's a picture of her. She's freaking knock out. Yeah she's attractive. Her abs

686
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:15,120
are kind of floppy. I don't know what do you guys think. Her abs kind of soft.

687
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:19,160
Really. I'm choking. God they're freaking iron tight.

688
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:23,200
Oh wow she is kind of super pretty.

689
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:27,240
Got big lips. I wonder if they're injected.

690
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:31,280
They might be injected. Anyway

691
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:35,320
did you know how but you guys know how it is right. In the Olympic Village it's like

692
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:39,360
an orgy. Apparently in what was the Olympics

693
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:43,400
where they were handing out they had a basket of condoms. They had a bunch of condoms they were handing out.

694
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:47,440
Right they're just like you know hey guys you know fuck everybody you want to. Well they're all

695
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:51,480
in shape athletes. No shit. Who have been locked in a room or

696
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,520
just training who now have some free time to bone.

697
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:59,560
No shit. How do you think like the shot put guy feels

698
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,600
he's like hey how you doing. He's like 400 pounds.

699
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:07,640
I mean he's strong as shit don't get me wrong. Actually he's not fat. He's 6'7".

700
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:11,680
Just a big dude. Really. Yes the guy who won.

701
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:15,720
Krauser. Oh yeah no I don't know anything about him. He's not a fat dude he's just big.

702
00:47:15,720 --> 00:47:19,760
That's awesome. That's cool. I'll tell you what

703
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:23,800
very tasty. What are you doing?

704
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,840
So. Oh god. We had a. This is an intro to

705
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:31,880
the Hawaiian bourbon we're drinking. We had a we had a neighbor that went to

706
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:35,920
Hawaii and she brought back some whiskey. So this was an attempt to play some

707
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:39,960
Hawaiian music but that didn't work out very well. Wow. Anyways. Is it a bourbon?

708
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:44,000
It is a whiskey. It's a whiskey. It's a blended whiskey and it's a paniola.

709
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:48,040
Paniolo.

710
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:52,080
Paniolo. Paniolo from the. Paniolo

711
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:56,120
blended whiskey blending mainland tradition with Hawaiian history.

712
00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:00,160
Paniolo whiskey is a combination of the world's best whiskeys with

713
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:04,200
exceptional island ingredients. Oh it's a blend. So

714
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:08,240
Hale Distilling Company is a craft distilling utilizing the local

715
00:48:08,240 --> 00:48:12,280
Maui ingredients to create quality spirits, sustainability, community,

716
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:16,320
ohana and integrity of ingredients in practices are

717
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:20,360
brand values. Our goal is to deliver products that consumers

719
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:28,440
wares. Hale-Maui Distilling Company is located in the heart of Maui's

720
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:32,480
pineapple region upcountry Makawa, Maui. Our goal is to create a Hawaii

721
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,520
and a bottle and share a little with the world. Paniolo whiskey

722
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:40,560
experience.

723
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:44,600
Boom boom boom boom boom. Very nice.

724
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:48,640
So what to say about the paniolo which I believe is

725
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,680
cowboy. Cowboy? Yeah it is. Ooh it's Hawaiian for cowboy.

726
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:56,720
So this one's only 40% alcohol volume, 80%

727
00:48:56,720 --> 00:49:00,760
proof, blending mainland tradition of Hawaii, Hawaiian history, the

728
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,800
paniolo whiskey combines bourbon with Maui gold pineapple. The

729
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,840
pineapple is distilled in neutral to allow for an extremely

730
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:12,880
clean and smooth whiskey with notes of brown sugar, caramel

731
00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:16,920
and sweet corn. So the sweet corn,

732
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:20,960
you know what we need to talk about the trip to Denison.

733
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:25,000
To Iron Root. To Iron Root. Because I'll tell you what, they're talking about the sweet

734
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:29,040
corn thing and that kind of like really brought my attention. Before we do that let's finish up with paniolo.

735
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:33,080
Well but still, but they're saying the sweet corn

736
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:37,120
and then I'm bringing attention to both of them at that point because when you say sweet

737
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:41,160
corn people are like yeah it's sweet corn, it's corn sweet. No man there are

738
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:45,200
there's a lot of fucking corn out there. I had no idea. I had no idea too.

739
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:49,240
400 varieties of corn. Yeah and we need to find

740
00:49:49,240 --> 00:49:53,280
the purple one. Yeah well the one with high protein and stuff like it with density

741
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:57,320
accidents and that's the stuff we need to be eating. I want to see a purple

742
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:01,360
crop. That would be cool. That's what he said. He said the entire plant is purple.

743
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:05,400
Well they grow it here in the state somewhere. Well they grow it there within the

744
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,440
near Denison somewhere. I need to go on a motorcycle ride and go find it.

745
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:13,480
How about that? On my Indian non-Harley.

746
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:17,520
There you go. Alright well what do we think guys? Like you said it's 80 proof.

747
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:21,560
I find it kind of a dessert kind of fun.

748
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:25,600
I drank it too fast. I'm going to get another.

749
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:29,640
Would you like another little pour to get just for the

750
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:33,680
nose and taste. This is my second drink. I'm going to give you

751
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,720
a little bit and then you and I are going to do the nose and the whatever correctly.

752
00:50:37,720 --> 00:50:41,760
Well here Paul just take half of that. You have like four ounces over there. Take half of that.

753
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,800
Seriously. Oh yours? Yeah. God what did you do there? That's a four ounce pour.

754
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,840
What are you doing? That's good. Okay here we go.

755
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:53,880
Alright the nose. What do we have in the nose?

756
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:57,920
Lots of fruit. Lots of fruit.

757
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,960
They said pineapple right? It's not stone fruit. It's pineapple.

758
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:06,000
So you got maple. I don't taste pineapple though.

759
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:10,040
Well I don't smell pineapple but I smell fruit. That's kind of weird.

760
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:14,080
It's um. Oh wow. He definitely smelled the caramel. He's got sweet corn.

761
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:18,120
And you smell the brown sugar too. Yeah there's definitely

762
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:22,160
sweetness on the nose. It's interesting.

763
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:26,200
It's a very smooth finish. It's a very simple taste. Yeah it is a simple taste.

764
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:30,240
It's light and because it's 80 proof you can get away with it. You can drink a lot of it.

765
00:51:30,240 --> 00:51:34,280
This stuff right here. Yes. You can. Like shit.

766
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:38,320
I'm just down that. And there's something to be said about that. They kind of put this

767
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:42,360
in the same category. Almost a TX Wussy. I think TX Wussy is a little bit

768
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:46,400
hotter though right? I don't know. We'll have to look. We have one out there.

769
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:50,440
I think it's 90 proof maybe. Well we'll just have to try all of them tonight.

770
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:54,480
All of them. Right. Every single one. Oh that one's like this one. Oh get that one too.

771
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:58,520
But I think this is tasty. It's not. I like it.

772
00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:02,560
80 proof. There is more to it than I thought there would be.

773
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:06,600
Yeah I was kind of excited and there's a good reason why.

774
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:10,640
I think it came through. It was exactly what I expected. It was a nice Hawaiian tree.

775
00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:14,680
If I were in Hawaii and I would pick that up and I would be happy to drink that.

776
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:18,720
I would sit there and drink glasses of it.

777
00:52:18,720 --> 00:52:22,760
Do they make anything else? We drank half the bottle already.

778
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:26,800
When you say we. Go back to that distillery

779
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:30,840
distribution. Do they make any other bottles?

780
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,880
What's their product?

781
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,920
They only have one. Just one huh? Oh that's it huh? Oh wow.

782
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:42,960
Yep. Nice little logo there. Just the

783
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:47,000
Paniolo blended whiskey. 750ml bottle. Do you know the age?

784
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:51,040
On the bottle it says at least 36 months.

785
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:55,080
So it's named after the Mexican of Vaqueros or cattle drivers.

786
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:59,120
Brought to Hawaii after Captain George Vancouver gave cattle to

787
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:03,160
King Kamahama the first. These vaqueros

788
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:07,200
embrace the Hawaii tradition. Can you put their products back on the screen for us?

789
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:11,240
That's Kamehameha. Kamehaha.

790
00:53:11,240 --> 00:53:15,280
Kama kama kama kama kama kama kama kama.

791
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:19,320
These vaqueros embrace the Hawaii tradition and became known as

792
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:23,360
Paniolo. Enjoy Paniolo Whiskey the spirit of Hawaiian cowboy.

793
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:27,400
So are we saying they have a vodka and a rum and a gin and this whiskey?

794
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:31,440
Interesting. Well the rum is infused with Kona coffee.

795
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:35,480
Fucking Kona. And a variety of extracts and

796
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:39,520
aromatics. So basically. So it's fake.

797
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:43,560
It's also a body oil. Especially ours right now.

798
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:47,600
Oh no that's later. It oozes out of your pores. That's not the same

799
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:51,640
thing Sean by the way. That doesn't count as a body oil. That's something

800
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:55,680
that smells wonderful that you put on your body. Not something gross that comes out of your body.

801
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:59,720
Let's look this can't be a fair. We're going to have to rate this.

802
00:53:59,720 --> 00:54:03,760
You know but it can't be. This is going to be a fair rating. This needs to be a category

803
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:07,800
all by itself because this is a specialty. Because it's a 9.9

804
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:11,840
right? Well no not even close. I mean it's

805
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:15,880
I'm going to go with enjoyability just like I do against other

806
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,920
stuff we have. I'm not even going to rate it. I'm just going to say it's a fun thing to have.

807
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:23,960
I'm glad we have it. I enjoy tasting it. It's not something I'd be like

808
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:28,000
eeeeww skawk ad. I'd be like that was fun. You know and I'm glad we got it. It was excellent.

809
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:32,040
I would say it's excellent. It's excellent for exactly what it was for. I wouldn't mind

810
00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:36,080
rating it for just comparing it to other ones. I would give it about a 6.3 which is

811
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:40,120
respectable. I was going to go 6.5. It's respectable.

812
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:44,160
That's why I didn't want to rate it because I would like in the fives.

813
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:48,200
It's not because it's just

814
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:52,240
you hate Hawaiians. We get it. It's just different.

815
00:54:52,240 --> 00:54:56,280
It's just different. It's in it's own category. It's not in the same thing.

816
00:54:56,280 --> 00:55:00,320
I know what you mean. We almost are getting to the point where there

817
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:04,360
are different categories that we can assess right? But I mean

818
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:08,400
we're not quite there. Well it's just like the buttercream wheat.

819
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:12,440
He was just vomiting on it. We were like this is great.

820
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:16,480
This is awful. It was very rich. I wouldn't like it at all.

821
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:20,520
But I hate butter. Anyway. You don't get butter on your popcorn?

822
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,560
But let's, no I don't. Ever. That's actually a good question.

823
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,600
I do not. I don't either. That's oil. It's not even. It's seed oil

824
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:32,640
that's disgusting. Let's talk about our tour.

825
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:36,680
Oh yes. The Denison Iron Root.

826
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:40,720
Very interesting story. You know I'll tell you

827
00:55:40,720 --> 00:55:44,760
the first of all the mom came out.

828
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:48,800
Well first of all let's walk through the whole process.

829
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:52,840
The dudes are like us fans out there. All two of you. So we've got

830
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:56,880
we went to the Iron Root place. But on the way there

831
00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:00,920
this was a Saturday excursion. We're like alright let's get this going. So Friday we go out

832
00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:04,960
and we're like and Chuck's with us and we're heading to the Total One and we're like

833
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:09,000
we're going to the Total Root tomorrow and we're all on board. Yep yep yep yep yep yep. I call Chuck

834
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:13,040
in the morning and he's like I don't remember any of that. So he was out

835
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:17,080
and that's fine. Shit happens. It's not a big deal. But you know so we get we go get lunch

836
00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:21,120
and we're like alright cool. We got everything timed. We're eating lunch

837
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:25,160
and then you know Jeff and I drove in one car and then Paul and the family

838
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:29,200
drove in another. We all had the time set and we're going to leave it at 11.30.

839
00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:33,240
It's perfectly timed. I just didn't remember. And so everyone agreed.

840
00:56:33,240 --> 00:56:37,280
That's how it started.

841
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:41,320
So I took my phone and I was like Iron Root to story

842
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:45,360
and I put hit let's go and Paul goes in there. 3 3 1

843
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:49,400
and he ends up in fucking South Texas summer. I don't know where the

844
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:53,440
fuck you went. It made me so mad. Well I was kind of like it was like

845
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:57,480
I was like 158. I was like really?

846
00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:01,520
And when you did is when we were scrambling back from wherever the fuck it sent me

847
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:05,560
I mean that's the thing I was like I was like what the fuck I was like first pop. I thought we

848
00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:09,600
picked a restaurant that was close by. That was odd to me that I was ten minutes away.

849
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:13,640
You go to Haystack.

850
00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:17,680
I was so pissed and Alan was like calm me down.

851
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:21,720
I see it was like we're going to get there. It's okay. Don't worry about it. I was like I got

852
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:25,760
so frustrated because you can't fucking trust Google Maps and we've got

853
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:29,800
I've gotten to the point where you put in an address and you expected

854
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:33,840
to tell you where you're supposed to go and it did not.

855
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:37,880
They do redirect you sometimes I I'm going to dude I'm going to say I

856
00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:41,920
use Google Maps a lot. I have to trust Google Maps a lot and I have

857
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:45,960
got an extremely high success rate. I know it's crazy.

858
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:50,000
Yeah. So I see a common denominator here with some of the errors

859
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:54,040
that's going on saying it's you do. I'm just saying I

860
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:58,080
looked at the address phone and I typed in the address say that you need

861
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:02,120
a new phone. No I have a new phone. Oh so we can't use that as an excuse.

862
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:06,160
Can't use that as an excuse. And my phone didn't get

863
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:10,200
banged by my junk so that wasn't it.

864
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:14,240
So anyways the group finally shows up so we're all sitting there

865
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:18,280
We were like halfway through the presentation. Oh you were not. We were five minutes late.

866
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:22,320
Here you go guys here's your tenth sample and

867
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:26,360
you didn't start sampling until the end of the tour.

868
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:30,400
No that was the second sample. Oh really. So we show up and

869
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:34,440
you know we wait for Paul. We go into the main room and they're like we're not going to start to have

870
00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:38,480
once here and then she starts talking about a bunch of stuff. I'll tell you what the the iron root mom

871
00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:42,520
OK. It's a family. Yeah it's a family. Oh deal. So look

872
00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:46,560
this just to an over and all snaps before we

873
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:50,600
dive in this whole thing the most informative

874
00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:54,640
tour I've ever been on. Absolutely. Yeah period. You went into

875
00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:58,680
a lot of deep especially the sun when we were listening to the the fatty

876
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:02,720
acid esters from Makers Mark that's we had in the past.

877
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:06,760
What is F.A.E. What is that shit. And they're like oh my god we got all these

878
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:10,800
different gratings of stuff and you really kind of feel like what the fuck. Here we are

879
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,840
bourbon enthusiasts and we have no idea what the fuck this stuff is

880
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:18,880
and we still didn't. And then we were listening to that that explanation that the sun

881
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:22,920
gave where he starts talking about when you have these large

882
00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:26,960
vessels that you've got a thousand gallons in however much

883
00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:31,000
is in there and it's it's homogeneous. So when

884
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:35,040
they pump in all the flavors they pump in all the grains and all the

885
00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:39,080
borrowers or whatever the fuck's in there it magically will

886
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:43,120
compartmentalize and separate it.

887
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:47,160
And so each layer has its own different temperature

888
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:51,200
well temperature steaming it. It's all different.

889
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:55,240
And each little section has its own different acid levels

890
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:59,280
you know so every it's like a different ecosystem

891
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:03,320
in every section. So it was kind of interesting to figure that out.

892
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:07,360
Oh that's what that bottle meant. It took like that the bottle basically

893
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:11,400
meant of this thousand gallon tank you have this four inch

894
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:15,440
level that they basically siphon out that four inch and that

895
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:19,480
is one barrel. That's incredible to me.

896
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:23,520
They talk about the hearts right the heads the hearts and the tails

897
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:27,560
and that and he did actually the best explanation of

898
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:31,600
what that even means and that's kind of what you were describing.

899
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,640
Where they are literally there's things when the distillation process starts there are things

900
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:39,680
that they want to get rid of like the nasty methanol

901
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:43,720
yeah exactly. Stuff that makes you go blind.

902
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:47,760
Yes and luckily that boils off at a different temperature

903
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:51,800
so they start the process at that temperature boil that shit off get rid of it

904
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:55,840
and then they move on to the next one and that's what they call separating the heads the

905
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:59,880
hearts and the tails right. So it was really fascinating.

906
01:00:59,880 --> 01:01:03,920
I also found it interesting how they said the real art is when you dip into the

907
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,960
tails and how far you go into it because that's where a lot of the

908
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:12,000
esters are. The flavors that you will that you

909
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:16,040
typically wouldn't get if you just cut them off right. So you have to dip down

910
01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:20,080
and you have to be smart enough you have to know alright I need to

911
01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:24,120
go this deep for this long. And that's totally experimentation.

912
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:28,160
Yeah I went for 10 minutes and it was perfect. And that's what they talked about these two brothers that

913
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:32,200
kind of do it together they do all the master distilling and you know they

914
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:36,240
they're all over the place in terms of what they're it's like a lab to them

915
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:40,280
a really super fun lab and it's all that's that pot still

916
01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:44,320
is manual. When I ask the question is this fed into a computer that has

917
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:48,360
all these files and it and the computer controls the temperature for a certain time period

918
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:52,400
and he's like yeah no it's all manual. I was like shit

919
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:56,440
because I bet you 1845 all computer controlled.

920
01:01:56,440 --> 01:02:00,480
They have that panel. I don't think so. Yeah I'm pretty sure.

921
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:04,520
So they have so it's the same way there they're both the same

922
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:08,560
and I say it like this so it's not when you say manual there's timers

923
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:12,600
so you basically I mean they have a control so at 1845

924
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:16,640
I don't know if you notice they had the big tall still and in the center they've got this large

925
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:20,680
panel that's not there. Big control board.

926
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:24,720
Right. There's a control board that's not there. They don't have that

927
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:28,760
control board so it is manual currently at 1845. Okay.

928
01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:32,800
So it is the same way. You know but ultimately. But Iron Road has a pot still where 1845

929
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:36,840
was a column still. So there's a difference there. But they do have a pot still.

930
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:40,880
No. It was in the box.

931
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:44,920
I've got pictures of it. There's a pot still. When you walk into the big room on the left

932
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:48,960
in those big wood crates. Oh yeah that's right. They were wrapped in copper

933
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:53,000
in plastic and they were about to install those. You're right.

934
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:57,040
You know there were huge ones. Just as big as that. And they were like we got to pay these guys

935
01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:01,080
I mean a quarter of a million dollars you know to be able to I mean

936
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:05,120
it cost a shit load of money to get stuff. That stuff's hand made.

937
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:09,160
I mean it's fucking crazy. Anyway it was a cool little

938
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:13,200
tool. What I wished what we didn't get was

939
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:17,240
you know a lot of the tours I've been to where they have the

940
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:21,280
mash. I mean and granted they're bigger operations. And that's why

941
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:25,320
they're able to do this in their tours. But you go up on a scaffolding

942
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:29,360
area. You look at it. And you can yeah you look at the fermentation tanks

943
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:33,400
and you see when it becomes like you know like the cornbread

944
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:37,440
crust. Right. And you can even dip your finger in it and you get to taste it.

945
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:41,480
It tastes good. It does. Yeah it's super cool.

946
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:45,520
And so they didn't have that because their fermentation tanks

947
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:49,560
are enclosed with the tubes at the top. Well plus we're

948
01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:53,600
sitting in the middle of their distilling room. Oh yeah no it's tiny.

949
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:57,640
No it was a tiny little operation which was great. Let me ask you a question.

950
01:03:57,640 --> 01:04:01,680
I wanted to ask the question during the tour. So during the fermentation process.

951
01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:05,720
So that's when they take the grains. Well first off they take the grains and they boil the grain.

952
01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:09,760
Right. And then they

953
01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:13,800
add the yeast. Right. Right. They're still

954
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:17,840
like I was saying is cornbread on the top of it. So when they

955
01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:21,880
drain that tank the fermentation tank they're filtering

956
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:25,920
out the solids right. They have to be. Yes. And then all those grains they feed

957
01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:29,960
to the cows. OK. Hold on but that's not like the initial thing.

958
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:34,000
Yes the initial. Once you got your mash bill you drain all the liquids

959
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:38,040
out of it. Right. And you filter out anything solid. And then that's

960
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:42,080
what you pump into the two into the multiple stages of distillation.

961
01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:46,120
Correct. OK. I wanted to ask that question but

962
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:50,160
I was going to ask them how does that filtration process work because they had

963
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:54,200
hoses coming out of the tops of the filtration tanks and I thought

964
01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:58,240
that was a little odd to be. So is that called the mashing portion.

965
01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:02,280
Yes. Yes. So the mashing portion is first and that's where

966
01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:06,320
they do the fermentation. Yeah. That's where the next step is the fermentation.

967
01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:10,360
They grind all the corn and the wheat and they grind it into almost I don't say a powder.

968
01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:14,400
Yeah powder. That's exactly what they do. And then they add their water

969
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:18,440
and then they heat it. Yes. Stir it in all the time and it cooks.

970
01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:22,480
Then it goes into the distillation process. No. Then you know then you

971
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:26,520
then it goes in the fermentation tank. You throw the yeast in there. Well mashing, fermentation

972
01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:30,560
then distillation. Correct. Correct. Then aging.

973
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:34,600
And then well then they do the multiple distillation you know boiling

974
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:38,600
at different levels. We talked about the heads hearts and tails. Yeah. That's where they separate the

975
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:42,640
fatty ester levels. Oh yeah. Come up with their different myriad of things.

976
01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:46,680
You know I thought it was also kind of cool where

977
01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:50,720
first of all we saw the kelp barrels there. I'm hoping

978
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:54,760
when Stan gets back from the middle wherever he's at

979
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:58,800
in Asia Stan's going to hopefully jump on our podcast

980
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:02,840
from the kelp. Hopefully we'll see what happens. He says he was interested in it.

981
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:06,880
But the cool thing was I saw a couple barrels there that the kelp probably purchased.

982
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:10,920
You know they said the kelp on there. Well didn't you ask them about it? I did. They said it's for them.

983
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:14,960
It's their barrel. So I'm like holy shit does that mean they're just going to sell

984
01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:19,000
that there or do we get to buy a bottle? So I'm buying a bottle no matter what it is.

985
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:23,040
Yeah they were very interesting that they

986
01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:27,080
they like cognac and they like I mean they're doing all this

987
01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:31,120
stuff. So that's interesting you bring that up. And they're trying different things.

988
01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:35,160
Well that's the whole premise. So they basically so these bourbon

989
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:39,200
these folks the whiskey guys they're at the iron root.

990
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:43,240
They took their whole process based on

991
01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:47,280
cognacs and brandy's. You know and the concepts there. They went

992
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:51,320
They learned from a French master distiller. They came out and they

993
01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:55,360
the French came out to their place and said this is what you know gave them some advice

994
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:59,400
and they went out there and learned some processes from the French cognac distilleries

995
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:03,440
and they came up with this other side of the idea and this concept of

996
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:07,480
let's take what is important in our region

997
01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:11,520
and put it into the barrels. And that's why we're talking about the corns

998
01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:15,560
that were so local which was so huge because they have blood

999
01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:19,600
corn. They had purple corn. They had all kinds of they had like

1000
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:23,640
four or five or six different corns that you've never even heard of.

1001
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:27,680
I didn't even knew they had that many corns. And he also talked about

1002
01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:31,720
just the history in general of grapes. Grapes first. Oh yeah.

1003
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:35,760
And how freaking complicated that is. Well apparently Texas saved

1004
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:39,800
the wine industry in the entire world. That's what he was claiming.

1005
01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:43,840
I mean yeah because. Because that guy there in Denison grafted

1006
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:47,880
European grapes onto Texas roots which would allow them to

1007
01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:51,920
make the party. Which would allow them to survive the aphids

1008
01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:55,960
which wiped out Europe. Yeah wiped out

1009
01:07:55,960 --> 01:08:00,000
California. That's where they grafted them first. The

1010
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:04,040
California was successful there. And then he said that when the steam engine

1011
01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:08,080
came along the aphids were able to live and make it over to Europe

1012
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:12,120
and they wiped out Europe. Yes. And they couldn't grow anything so they

1013
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:16,160
came over here and got the Texas roots grafted onto their

1014
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:20,200
European grapes and replanted them over there. So that's another reason

1015
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:24,280
why Texans can give the finger to France. That's right. We saved your

1016
01:08:24,280 --> 01:08:28,320
their freaking I didn't want to want to say anything about that. I was kind of like you know

1017
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:32,360
I mean France doesn't have a huge rep with the Americans. You know I'm like fuck France.

1018
01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:36,400
You know I was like hey you know what fuck you and your fucking

1019
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:40,440
French shit. You know it's a we but we saved your wine. How about that.

1020
01:08:40,440 --> 01:08:44,480
Anyway but it was it was fascinating and then he moved on to corn and hold on let me let me go back

1021
01:08:44,480 --> 01:08:48,520
and kind of correct that because I didn't want to slam that because I don't feel that way really.

1022
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:52,600
Right. I mean part of me does but I didn't feel that way about the iron roof

1023
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:56,640
folks. I mean they're just coming up with a fantastic brand and I have a lot of respect for what those

1024
01:08:56,640 --> 01:09:00,720
guys do and it was it was we had a great time. It was and their product is

1025
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:04,760
superior. It really is. Now we have in our collection

1026
01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:08,880
a bottle of St. Sally. We have a St. Sally and I think we have

1027
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:12,920
either Prometheus or Harbinger. Yeah I did not realize

1028
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:16,960
that they did St. Sally. I had no idea. St. Sally

1029
01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:21,000
is a blend of several different

1030
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:25,040
distilleries. Right. We didn't really

1031
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:29,080
have a high rating for the St. Sally based on my recollection. I think Stan

1032
01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:33,120
recommended it to you and you got it and we were I think I think our outlook

1033
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:37,160
was too high for it. Well I think what was going on is that it

1034
01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:41,200
had some smoked peat in it and that's kind of the one of the

1035
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:45,240
foundations of a couple legs of the whiskeys that they produce which is

1036
01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:49,280
fine. I mean now I think I have a better appreciation for it

1037
01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:53,320
but during that time I was kind of like eh you know what

1038
01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:57,360
not so much of a fan but I like that. Now the things I tasted there

1039
01:09:57,360 --> 01:10:01,400
even though I was hung the fuck over. Yeah you about shit your pants

1040
01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:05,440
all the way home. Oh my god it was so horrible. Hey

1041
01:10:05,440 --> 01:10:09,480
and you wonder why we took two cards. Hey did I hold it? He did. He goes I

1042
01:10:09,480 --> 01:10:13,560
am your best friend ever. He's oh so you're

1043
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:17,600
taking credit for being awesome because you didn't blow

1044
01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:21,640
shit out of his car. And I was like Sean at this point if you let anything out it's

1045
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:25,680
going to be a mess. It may be worth it.

1046
01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:29,720
You were struggling huh? It was tough

1047
01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:33,760
man. I had that I am hung over shit and I

1048
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:37,800
had already processed twice. I've already purged twice for the day. That would have been the third

1049
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:41,840
one by the time I whatever. I think the sphincter was kind of going

1050
01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:45,880
to be the last one. It was shaking. It was like a fucking head

1051
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,920
Parkinson's. So I gotta tell you so Dylan went with

1052
01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:53,960
us right and Dylan is not a bourbon drinker right and so we got to the tasting

1053
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:58,000
part and he's like the first three were all iron root and he was like they all tasted

1054
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:02,040
exactly the same. I was like no they didn't

1055
01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:06,080
but I understand what you're saying. He was just shaking his head. He was like

1056
01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:10,120
exactly the same. Exactly the same. Cause he's a vodka drinker right.

1057
01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:14,160
And then he got to the next three. With the cognac

1058
01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:18,200
blends and the ports. Then he was like okay yeah that's different. I like that.

1059
01:11:18,200 --> 01:11:22,240
So what did he think of their vodka then? He liked it. The vodka was actually good. It was very

1060
01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:26,280
unique tasting. Yeah it was good. What did they make it out of? They made it out of corn.

1061
01:11:26,280 --> 01:11:30,320
Oh yeah. They were big corners. Corners.

1062
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:34,360
Anyway it was a very I gave it

1063
01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:38,400
credit for being the most informed. I mean I've been to six distilleries now.

1064
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:42,440
Oh yes. I am a connoisseur.

1065
01:11:42,440 --> 01:11:46,480
But it was like it was the most informative when it came to the distillation

1066
01:11:46,480 --> 01:11:50,520
process. They usually just skip right over that. Quite honestly. They don't want to tell you all the secrets.

1067
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:54,560
We sampled the iron root promethian,

1068
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:58,600
iron root harbinger, the greyson blended bourbon. Which we've had

1069
01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:02,640
a bottle of. All three good. Saints Alley port and cognac.

1070
01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:06,680
Saints Alley white port and cognac and the Saints Alley herald.

1071
01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:10,720
And then the vatkas. I was kind of indifferent

1072
01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:14,760
on the Saints Alley. I mean I wasn't. I thought they were good.

1073
01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:18,800
I enjoyed the first three more than I enjoyed those. Let me just put it that way.

1074
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:22,840
That greyson blended bourbon whiskey was good. They also had a

1075
01:12:22,840 --> 01:12:26,880
Bloody Mary mix. Yeah it was like barbeque sauce style stuff.

1076
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:30,920
That was pretty tasty. It was different. I liked it.

1077
01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:34,960
I liked it period. Let's just leave it at that.

1078
01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:39,000
It was thick. It was very thick. Drinking it as is I would need it to be in a mixture.

1079
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:43,040
But all in all it was good. Yeah and shout out to the mom

1080
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:47,080
and the son. But the mom she had these stories

1081
01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:51,120
of how to serve and serve it right and do it right.

1082
01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:55,160
You have to have this and you have to have that and do this with that.

1083
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:59,200
It was pretty funny. Well shout out to iron root

1084
01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:03,240
republic and the mom and dog you say man.

1085
01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:07,280
We had a great time. We didn't buy any

1086
01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:11,320
and we just belted out. Because you had the shit so we had to run. We just ran anyways because

1087
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:15,360
these guys were like hey we gotta go something's going on with the house. What was that all about?

1088
01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:19,400
We just had to get the house ready. We had people come over. I had my pork butt. I had to get ready.

1089
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:23,440
And it was good. August 6th

1090
01:13:23,440 --> 01:13:27,480
