This is August 10th.
Yes it is.
Part 2.
It's part 2.
Part 2 of 2.
Welcome back to Do's Like Us.
I am home.
I'm Jeff.
And this is Sean.
And we are opening up with another bottle of bourbon.
And this one is we're sampling the, in case you guys don't know, we always open up, or
at least we try.
We try to open up with a bourbon.
Very classy.
Yeah.
Sometimes you get distracted.
This bottle is in a wine shaped bottle.
I don't like the bottle.
It's got a high neck.
It's clear.
It's embossed.
It says Yellowstone Whiskey.
It's got a nice solid color.
It's kind of a wine bottle.
But it's kind of embossed on there.
So it's, it's, it's not, it's not quite the wine bottle like Noah's Mill.
Embossed.
So that's like engraved.
It's the opposite of engraved.
So it's sticking out.
Correct.
So it's like those guys that do like their frat, their scar, frat scars on there.
Yes, it's a, it's a frat scar.
It's on the bottle.
Do they say that for frat, frat arms?
Do they say it's embossed?
Do they say it's an embossed tattoo or an embossed?
Yeah.
Well, part of the phasing thing is part of the phase.
Which phase of the phasing are you in?
Oh, we're in the embossing phase.
Something tells me they don't say that.
I'm sure that's exactly what they say.
No.
All right.
Sorry.
Yellowstone.
So since, since 1878, Yellowstone Select.
Kentucky Strait.
All right.
So this particular bourbon.
Well, first of all, we'll talk about how it tasted.
Because the first thing, before we even looked at any of the, the stats on it, we do a cold
test on this and, you know, we taste it and, you know, it's okay.
It's okay to good.
It does not have a rich nose, right?
So it's, I think it's probably a pretty typical nose.
Yeah, it's pretty standard.
It's a nose wise.
Obviously, the longer it sits there, the more notes come out, right?
Yeah.
It's got, it's got kind of an after it sat here for five, 10 minutes, it's got kind of
a doughy, got that doughy post taste.
I don't have it on the nose.
No, on the palate.
I don't know.
Not on the nose, on the palate.
Tell you what, it's a, it's a spicy bourbon.
Yeah, it is.
It is.
I just kind of choked on it.
It's, and the spice hits you in the back.
It's exactly what just happened to me.
That's why you heard me coughing and choking over here.
It hits your uvula.
So this, this particular one has got some interesting, the processing, the distilling
process is a little bit different from what we're used to reading.
So y'all still bourbon.
Today the distiller produces approximately 40 barrels a month from a mash bill, 71% corn,
13 rye, and 12% malt.
What was that?
I had to clear the uvula.
Yeah.
It sounded like he like regurgitated.
It was kind of tingly.
Was that a burp or?
No, he's not lying.
He went straight to my vulva too.
I don't believe that's what I said.
Yeah.
So they make 40 barrels a month from a mash bill, 75% corn, 13 rye, 12 malt, which is
pretty evenly split.
Maker's Mark is around 71% grain, or corn.
I'm kind of curious on the levels.
Maker's Mark has wheat in it.
Yeah, that's a weird beer.
That's true.
I mean, urban.
I just, it's very interesting how the, this whole thing is set up, but this one's different.
So they say doing 600 gallons open top fermentations, which I have no idea what that is except for
the words open top meaning.
I just think instead of them having a lid on it, it's, it's not compressed.
No lid.
Like a, like a distill.
So there's no gas.
Yeah, so doing a open top fermentation and a 600 gallon stripping pot still and 150 gallon
Alembic pot still.
I have no idea what any of those are.
Sounds very Harry Potter ish.
I don't either.
Alembic.
Yeah, they have a stripping pot still and 150 gallon Alembic pot still.
Anyway, so currently the stocks used in their Yellowstone line of bourbons in minor case
for expression are sourced through Luxco and Luxco is home to one of our more drinkable
bourbons that we drink a lot.
There's a bottle of it sitting behind Sean.
Oh really?
Yes.
Rebel yell from Luxco.
Really?
And old Ezra, which we have somewhere in this mix of bourbons is from Luxco.
They also do Everclear.
What exactly do they do?
They don't do anything with Everclear.
They just, it's like pure Luxco.
Bae-goo Everclear?
Yes, that's their brand.
That's the name of it.
What is it?
191 proof or 192 proof or something ridiculous like that?
You guys ever have the punches in college?
Oh yes.
Yes, we've had a bottle of it.
And they say it's not, you can't taste it?
Bullshit, you can taste it.
It's nasty.
You think that tickles your uvula now?
Drink that stuff.
It would numb it.
Do you say Volfa?
No, I do not believe so.
They also make a Juarez Tequila.
Juarez Tequila?
Yes.
That's interesting.
They make a lot of stuff.
Yeah.
Hold on, I didn't know that.
190 proof Everclear, bartender's equivalent of jet fuel.
It's awful.
It's high octane neutral grain spirit is more than twice the strength of standard vodkas.
Yeah, if you want to get...
It's illegal in 11 states.
I did not know that.
Well they put it in the punches and people get blown up.
Yeah, you don't realize it.
It's always a college thing.
It doesn't have much...
And when you add it to a punch, we call them Harry Buffalo parties.
What kind of parties are you going to?
Well, you call them trash can punch, right?
We call them Harry Buffalo.
And you have the fruit punch.
We?
Who's we?
What club are you in that calls it the Harry Buffalo?
That'd be Ohio University.
So Harry Buffalo, what is the significance?
That is such an odd name.
Harry Buffalo.
Are those the type of women that are hanging out?
Could be.
What is your mascot?
Harry Buffalo?
No, it's a...
That's a bobcat.
It's a skinless buffalo.
Look up Harry Buffalo.
See if it comes up.
I don't know.
It could be very regional.
I don't know.
But that's what we always call it, was the Harry Buffalo.
Harry Buffalo party.
There it is.
That's awful.
And we'd buy a bunch of fruit, just like your trash can, right?
Trash can punch.
Yes.
And no, it's not a yak.
That says Harry Buffalo with horns.
I expect you ended up doing it.
Free image.
Yak punch.
Yeah.
So we'd buy that, the Everclear, and a bunch of vodkas, and you just...
And then yak.
You just get the cup, and the fruit, I tell you what, you do it early in the day and all
the fruit absorbs all that booze, and the fruit is where the power is.
I tell you what.
Starting the grapes and the watermelons and all that stuff.
We had a party where we soaked pineapple in vodka.
Somebody brought a whole big bin, a big bucket of...
Yeah.
That's good.
And you can get...
And we were just popping them like candy.
And we got so blown up.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
Vodka infused pineapple.
Yeah.
When we cut pineapple downstairs sometimes, there's a bunch of juice left over, and we'll
take some pieces, throw it in a mason jar, pour vodka in there, and we'll have it in
the fridge.
So it's pineapple infused vodka.
And it's cold and perfect.
Yeah, it's tasty.
Yeah, it was good.
It was really good.
But yeah, we all got too drunk.
Yeah.
There's nothing more unhealthy feeling than being over drunk on Harry Buffalo drink.
I can imagine.
I've never done it, and I'm still going to...
I'm going to back you on this one.
I had a similar Harry Buffalo drink on one of those booze boats in Jamaica when I went
down there.
And boy, that was very uncomfortable because you know how they mix.
Plus, you're on a boat.
It's probably the sugars too, right?
Oh, it's a bunch of shit they put in there.
It makes a bunch of stuff.
Jeff Neal, there's all the sugars.
I mean, hell, we went to one of our Bible studies.
We went to a bar.
The Booze Cruise.
And remember the bar we went to?
Bible study.
Yeah, we went to a bar.
Was it Jake's?
Was it Baby Dolls?
You were there.
Okay, I'm listening.
And I ordered this ridiculous drink.
Do you remember the drink that had Jack Daniels and Punch?
It was a huge drink.
That was not a Bible.
Was that a Bible?
Oh, that was.
That was not a Jake's.
It was this humongous drink with like six straws out of it.
It was a trough.
And I drank it.
I do remember that.
And I tell you what, man, it had nothing to do with the alcohol.
I think it had everything to do with the sugar.
Right.
There was so much in there.
I had a horrible headache.
I had this.
I didn't feel good.
I thought something was wrong.
Yeah, that's not going to make you sweat.
The alcohol would make you sweat.
You probably got diabetes.
I don't know what the hell happened, but it was it was very kid.
He's probably shut down.
So yeah, screw that diabetes.
Yeah, no kidding.
That's the thing with those sugary drinks.
They're good.
But man, if you're going to drink them, you need to limit because the sugar will just
destroy you.
It doesn't mean it.
We had swim parties where we make a blender after blender after blender of pina coladas.
Oh, yeah.
I love pina coladas.
And me too.
But I mean, dude, after you've had four of them, like it's so sugary that it's like it's
not even you can't you can't keep going.
Right.
Well, the sugar gets you going and then the alcohol brings it down and you just it's like
these drinks that have red bull and alcohol in it.
I know.
I don't see.
I don't like Red Bull for one thing, but I don't understand that.
So not good for you.
They're counter.
They counteract each other.
Right.
So you keep going.
Maybe that's the draw.
Maybe.
I don't know.
Maybe.
I don't know.
I don't like Red Bull either.
You know, Red Bull to me tastes like gummy bears.
It's too sweet for me.
I don't have a sweet tooth.
So I have a hard time drinking Red Bull or any of those energy drinks.
So they're too sweet for me.
Let's make those other drinks like Monster.
It makes my heart explode.
I never really got into those those energy drinks.
They're horrible for you.
Like you talk about Monster and.
Yeah, I never ever got into them.
I mean, I've had them before.
What's the one I've never all the Instagram models?
Bang, bang, bang or rain.
Bang rains the new one.
Yeah, I was on Instagram and like every every search was like saying models, bang models
for Loco or Loco.
I don't know about that one.
Yeah, that's another one for Loco.
That's what I think.
But local is alcohol.
Yeah, I think it's got more than you think.
And it was getting I don't know if it was killing these teenagers or it was just getting
them screwed up beyond what they were expecting.
I mean, there are people there are kids teenagers that have died from energy drinks, man.
That's all they drink one after another.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
And it's got like a ridiculous amount of caffeine.
Yeah, the drugs are six, seven, eight, ten, twelve or fourteen percent alcohol.
Oh, these are the Loco.
Yeah.
So they're getting these fourteen big twenty four, you know, two pounders.
Yeah, that'll do.
That'll do it.
Or a pound and a half and big twenty four ounces and they drink that fourteen percent
and they just get destroyed.
Right.
Alcohol poisoning.
Yeah.
Well, you imagine a bottle of wine is like ten to thirteen.
So that's like drinking seven or fifteen milliliters is a bottle of wine.
So what are those twenty four ounces?
Six hundred ninety five milliliter can.
So basically a bottle of wine almost.
And that's that would be the equivalent of how many shots of bourbon?
I wish we shoot one of ours.
One.
Where's the rumble at?
It's half a shot of that rumble.
Hundred and thirty nine proof.
Yeah, but didn't we say that it's all relative, right?
I mean, so there's a there's a whole bunch of volume in that big can and it's it's not
the equivalent of two shots.
It is.
Fourteen percent.
Well, there's there's math out there to do that.
So that's what I mean for like wine, for example.
Let's just say that that's why they make the glasses smaller.
Well, they make the glasses the shape they are so that you can you can have a different
perspective on smelling it in the way the wine goes switches in the glass.
But right.
But moreover, it's to it's to how much goes in that glass.
Yeah, there's a you know, they put like eight ounces, six ounces in a glass of wine.
Right.
Compared to beer, compared to booze.
So I think I think they said one beer is equivalent to one eighty proof liquor shot.
One shot.
Compared to one glass of wine, typical glass of wine.
Right.
The wife glass of wine.
Right.
That's to the Brahman.
The water tension is on the dominant.
So but this is how many ounces?
These four.
Twenty four.
Twenty four ounces.
And let's just say the 14, 14 percent alcohol.
Twenty four ounces.
Right.
Well, there's a math equation for it, but I know there is.
I just I wish I knew how well 12 ounces at what's a typical beer.
Four and a half.
Right.
That's 12 ounces at four and a half is one shot.
Well, you got to think of them as instead of just think of as drinks like a shot of
bourbon is one drink.
A glass of wine is one drink.
A beer is one drink.
And they're all supposed to be equivalent as far as the end result is as much alcohol
as you're supposed to be in there.
So if they're saying the if they're saying that the 14 percent alcohol of a six hundred
ninety five milliliter can, that's not one drink.
If you look on there, it probably says four servings.
But right.
But they take it as one drink.
But it's still and but it's still 14 percent alcohol.
The entire can is correct.
So when they say but they're still saying there's four drinks in there.
So there's probably a quiver to four shots bourbon in that thing.
Like a bottle of wine is probably quivered.
You know what I mean?
Right.
But there's actually more than four shots because that's that's a shot at 80 proof.
Right.
Or I'm sorry.
A four and a half point beer is one shot.
That's 14 percent.
Yeah.
But it's still you're looking at 12 ounces of beer, though.
So we're talking about drinks.
So a shot of bourbon.
So there's probably more than four servings.
So let's break that down to.
OK, so let's say you have you said a four.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
So it's more like a year.
So it'd be like I'm sorry to interrupt, Paul.
But the 14 percent wine, if it's just like wine, it'd be anywhere from from from five
ounces to to nine ounces of wine, 11 ounces of wine that go on a lot.
Not 11 because you get the Chardonnay and you get the smaller glasses, the bigger glasses.
And they fill them up five ounces to seven ounces somewhere in there.
So that's about.
About five servings.
Shit, man.
So five more than that.
Still, it goes about four drinks.
Because four ounces just make it easy for drink.
Oh, shit.
No, because if it's if it's five ounces, five into that is four and a half ounce.
So four and a half drinks.
Whatever.
Still, that's like four bourbons in one of those cans of of local and then the shotgun.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah.
Are you kidding me?
And they weigh a lot less than your teenagers.
So they're generally underweight.
Well, you put 14 ounces to 23 and a half.
So that's three point two.
So what you want to do is do twenty three point five divided by four.
So hold on.
You're saying one 12 ounce can of beer at four percent is the equivalent of an 80 ounce
one ounce shot.
80 proof from the.
Yeah, they say from the perspective of that's what the drink is.
So there because.
OK, so a 12 percent beer.
So the cop says how many drinks did you have?
Three.
That's three shots in one 12 ounce can.
Yeah.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
That's not that's not.
So a drink is a 12 ounce can of beer.
Right?
All right.
So at 4 percent, it doesn't matter really what I mean.
You know, it's kind of like there's not a whole lot of difference between 4 and 6 percent
when you're dealing with a can of beer.
I mean, there's a little bit bigger buzz.
That's why I'm asking.
But then, you know, when you get up to the higher ones, that's why when you go to some
of these bars they don't serve you a pint of these 10 ounce or 10 percent
beers they have a smaller eight and a half right? Yeah it's smaller. It's a
smaller shifter glass. They don't want you to get blown up. Well I mean because it all
goes back down to what is a reasonable drink because look when people go out to
drink and they're like hey look how many drinks did you have? The cop pulls you over
says how many drinks do you have? I had four drinks. All right and he didn't say
you had four drinks of a five-point beer do you have four drinks of a 12-point
beer? Right and that's the reason why they kind of break it down like that and you know it's
it's no I get that from a police or like you know general guidelines but and
that's what it all is it's general. I'm simply trying to like what you guys were
trying to get to that can of four loco. Four shots of bourbon. Is that right? I
mean that's what I'm trying to get to is literally four shots of bourbon that's
crazy. That's more than a peanut butter jelly. Yeah and I'll tell you what I had
one of those four locos about fuck five years ago and I remember this was this
was horrible I mean I it had me in the fetal position for about 30 minutes. Was it
all the sugar and shit that's it? I have no idea what it was but it was it was
Christmas time and we were putting up the Christmas lights out at the HOA
community pool and it was my buddy Tom and myself because no other person
in the community is gonna do anything for the HOA because they're all a bunch
of losers and Tom and I are pretty much you know and now we've picked up a few
extra people to help out but whatever's not the point so he and I are down there
the pool putting up Christmas lights and we go stop by the store we go pick up
so let's go get a big bugger get buzzed real quick and you know and so I slam
one of those because I'm working and I was thirsty and it wasn't cold I mean it
wasn't hot but because it's cold outside I just I just drank it it went down
really fast and then all of a sudden I was just like everything stopped and I
laid on one of the lawn chairs out there for like 30 minutes. Did you blow your
ass out? No it was more like I was kind of comatose. I was kind of like ohhhh. That was your
liver going okay I don't even know how to process this but I'm gonna process it as fast as possible so
give me a second here. I don't yeah exactly in my buffering buffering yeah
stand by. That's exactly what your liver was doing like what the hell did you just ingest.
Did the windows power down?
It was horrible man. It was horrible. I've never had one. I don't recommend it. I have no plans to ever drink any of that.
I mean it was kind of tasty because it was kind of a grape flavor and so it was
kind of like a candy kind of alcohol. That's one of the complaints was
it was attracting to these kids because it tastes like soda pop or energy drinks
and energy drink but it's it's chock as you can see potentially 14% alcohol. It was
horrible it was a bad experience and I don't recommend it to anybody. Did you get buzzed?
Yeah he skipped he skipped the buzz phase. I did I did I mean I did because
it was it was instant I'm telling you I was on a ladder just having a blast and
you know taking on the day and doing Sean things and and zip tying those
things to the fence and then sat down versus or you know slam that drink got
back up there and like within a minute I was kind of like your body just taps you
on the shoulder says hey buddy what did you just drink? And I was like I don't feel so good.
And I know Tom was mad but I was just like dude I can't do anything. It was like
instant drunk. What did he drink? He had no light. See he's way smarter than you are.
He knew what to drink he knew we can handle. He saw Sean pick up the four loco he's like
rookie. Yeah life lessons man and I want to share with that to everybody don't do that.
If you have some of those four locos man you can take it and you will split it
with four of your friends. Four drinks. Probably smarter. Or not slam it.
Yeah well you know again life lessons. That's hard right? I bet it was all the sugar and all the
chemicals and shit that's in it was in your gut and your stomach just went what
do I do with this? And I felt like I had to take a shit. That's what I said that you
blast your ass out. No I didn't I didn't but yeah I had that that feeling in your
stomach it's kind of like total fullness. Oh something's not right and everything
just started. As it's eating a hole through your lining. Equilibrium is starting to cut loose and I'm just.
So your stomach was doing this at the same time you were getting drunk. Yeah it's just and then you know
hey don't wait there's more and then I turn more coming. I look up at the sky and it starts
spinning and it's like place your beds place your beds and I'm like oh god this is uncomfortable.
30 minutes later. No that was it man. But I did get up I did get up and we finished it was fine.
I mean it was just. Oh my god. Well 30 minutes I was down. Grown ass man. Alright so why is that even up there?
We've all been there. We've all made stupid mistakes like that. I did the the Mad Dog 2020 in college.
Did you guys drink that stuff? No. Yeah. The wine. Same thing. It's not wine. I guess technically it is wine.
It's the same thing though. What do they call that? Is it malted liquor? I don't know.
Mad Dog 2020. There it is right there. It's awful. I have tried it but I've never gotten drunk on it.
It's a fortified wine. Well they probably add some more alcohol. It does. See it's healthy for you.
Yeah it's it's it's instead of taking your multivitamin just chug a gallon of Mad Dog.
Every morning. Yeah but look at the percentage on that the alcohol. So 18.
Well they said the where does it say that? No well the previous page.
It was 13 to 18 percent. So that is kind of like in the ballpark of a lot of these wines.
Yeah and I'll tell you a Mad Dog 20. You can drink it. It's like juice. It does it tastes like grape juice.
But it's nasty. Oh yeah but we would drink it and I mean I remember living in El Paso Texas
and Big Xerfield with a bunch of other United States Army Sergeant Major Academy dependents
and just for the group of people and someone had scored the two or three bottles of Mad Dog 2020
and we're taking chugs out of it passing around. Yeah you get ripped pretty quick on that stuff.
I've only had the grape. And you're all throwing up. I did throw up. I only had the grape flavor
but I think there's multiple flavors. Looked at there like there's a peach or red color.
There's like four or five flavors up there. I've only had the grape. I tell you I had my first
experience with the I shouldn't say like this but I don't care with a gay guy. Really? Yeah well the
first time I ever met a gay guy and no not like a sexual experience. Oh my first experience being
around one. You both had a bunch of Mad Dog and the next thing I know I'm pork in his hump.
He was like a petite Sheena Easton. She was pretty though. He was too man. He was petite. His hair was
freaking perfect. He kind of looked like her on the video when she sang Strut. But anyways I
remember he drank it because he was with our group and because this is how cool military brats are.
We don't give a fuck. You got a white person. You got a gay person. You got several black people.
An Asian guy and a couple Mexicans and we're all hanging out. We don't give a shit about anything.
Because you have something in common. Yeah and I'll tell you that's huge and I know anyway so
that gay guy got drunk and he's so gay it's just funny as fuck man because
and I don't come out more flamboyant. First of all you're not used to it and it's just
the whole experience was kind of weird but you know and the fact that nobody cared was awesome.
That is cool. You know but it's just like he just became more and more flamboyant and he was just
like so he was so the more the more he drank the more flamboyant he got. It's like the more he
drank the more the butane in that lighter got into the open position. The flame got higher and higher
and higher. You know that's funny. He ended up puking. Right. I went home. There you go.
Well and because when he started doing that some people were like going over and coddling him a
little bit and I was like yeah I'm out. I'm out. I gotta go home. Hell I was 15. I was I mean dude
I was 15. That's crazy. So you went home drunk. Yeah it's part of the reason why I had so many
dumbass experiences growing up is because I hung out with all those military brats that were
awesome people. That were drinking all the time. We didn't drink all the time. No? No it was like
once in a blue moon. I didn't drink too much as a teenager. I think I really I guess said before
the first beers I had were Little King's Cream Ale. Yep. And I was probably I may have been 17,
16. Right. I've had beers one every now and then but to sit down at a party and really drink it was
it was and they were seven ounce bottles little green bottles and you'd buy a case of those and
you basically sit there and drink the whole thing yourself but yeah because they're little. Yeah
little but first thing you drink beer. Aren't we gonna buy some of those? Yeah they used to have them at Total Wine. They
haven't had in the past actually haven't looked but whenever we see them we'll have to get them. It's been
I want to pick up some of those big mouth Mickey's too because those were one of my first experiences.
They have those. Little King's is a Cream Ale again I think that was that was the first time. Cream Ale
sounds kind of gross though. Yeah. Oh yeah totally does. Is it creamy? It's smooth yeah it's not well
I don't know it's just it's a mouthfeel you know. Oh so it's the bubbles. Yeah it's the bubbles. That's interesting.
There's no cream in it. Let's yeah let's try it I'm sure it'll be fine. Yeah it's an ale.
God look at this. Oh let's just try all these like our other experiment we're like let's try every canned
meat we have. We did it. Did we ever talk about this? My wife was horrified she was like you guys are idiots.
We were horrified. Yeah we threw probably 90 percent of that away. Have we did we have we talked about this on the podcast?
That was the problem it was so salty. All right so let's share with the folks. We were we were talking
about spam I think on one of these the podcast and we're like you know what let's let's just go ahead
and unearth this this this collection of canned food. We tried it we looked for everything was
that canned chicken? Well we looked for the whole chicken. We never found it. Thank god. No. But thank god.
It's the whole thing in like a jelly. We ended up getting spam canned oysters canned or boiled oysters
in a can. We got boiled clams. We did corn hash. We had corn hash corn beef hash. We had potted beef potted meat
sorry. And then and we even figured out like what the difference between all these things were but
I don't remember what they are now. We got the Vienna sausage. We got the potted meat and then I think
there's a meat in a jar. There was no reason to go overboard like this. It was dried meat. It was dry.
That was gross. It was like it was like these three inch salami patties and they were so salty it was
it ruined everything else for me. It was so bad. Yeah like I was gonna eat like the Vienna sausage
after that and then maybe some spam after that and after crunching on that that dried thing
it made my whole mouth pucker up. I know and I didn't eat anything after that. It took about eight
weeks for my fingers to become unswollen. It was so bad. We could have just stuck with spam. I love spam
and I'm not giving up spam. I'll tell you what that was that was the worst the beef the the beef sheets
and then the oysters. Yeah those were terrible. I didn't even try them. I tried them all. I tried all of it
but the oyster I had won. I was like yeah I had to. I had to try them all and it was canned oysters.
It was it was and it was crazy salty wasn't it? No it was no it was bitter. No oh gross.
I don't know which they were kind of right there. See the canned oysters. The free and royalty.
It's on from the right to one over very top. Oh they look awful. Left right there. Bam. So it's
so it's came in a little can like you would get your oysters in or your sardines in and you open
it up it's oily. That was one thing I couldn't get over. It was everything was so oily and so I had
to like turn the hot water on. You rinsed everything. I had to rinse it because I was like I'm not
putting that oil in my mouth. That's disgusting. I think that's what made it worse is you rinsed
everything and now you have this dry. Yeah the jellies. Oyster. I was like I rinsed all the
because that was nasty. You're supposed to eat that. All those carcinogens in there. I don't want that. That's what that's what gives it moisture.
There's way more than carcinogens in there. It helps it slide down the throat. God knows what's in there.
Yeah the oysters were bad. They were smoked and they were not good. I don't know how. I've always
seen them on the shelf. I'm like I should try those and I'm glad I did and I will never buy them again.
Yeah well we did. We threw out so much of it. Just about everything was thrown out and then about one
two o'clock in the morning my bowels started reacting from what was going on.
Yeah for sure. This gas started seeping out. There wasn't even a fart. It was more like a permeation.
You know it was a it didn't have enough power to make a fart. It just constantly seeped.
Then your family came down and was oh my god. That's what Terrence said. She comes down and is like good god man.
And I was like why why I don't understand. It's the dog. Jeff just left.
It's like 8 a.m. What? Needless to say we won't be doing the canned meat.
No that was a one and done. I will do the spam. The shopping for it was as much fun as eating it.
When we were standing there and they're all together. All those cans. All those different
canned meats. People were looking at us and were like getting all these meats. Yeah like I'll get this.
Two of those. And by the way the Vienna sausage they have like 10 different flavors of Vienna sausage.
Yeah I've only had the regular. I know they had a million of them. The mesquite and smoked and this and that.
I like the Vienna sausages. They're not bad. Because you could you could spread them.
Like the well the potted meat is a very squishy. The potted meat is essentially
the inside of a Vienna sausage. Right yeah I didn't know that. Without the skin.
Now we do. Yeah I didn't know it was like a like a like a dip. Yeah it's like a pate. It's like the
inside of a Vienna sausage. Yep that's exactly what. Yeah that was not a dudes like us thing to do.
It was it was an experience. Actually that was exactly what it does. Oh god. Let's try all of
the canned meats. For dudes like us please don't ever do that. Don't. We did it for you so that you don't have to.
I can tell you what if I ever find the whole canned chicken I'm gonna buy one. No. Should be a fear factor.
Why? That's so gross. I want to buy one. It is. That's why we need to try it. And do what with it. Eat it. I'm gonna pass.
I know but you okay so you here's a whole chicken sitting in a can. You rip you open up the top. Are the feathers off?
You throw it. Yes. Does it have a deep bone? It looks like a. So there's bone in it. So there's bones. Does it have like a beak?
Yes what do you do you chop it into pieces and throw it in the skillet? Does it have legs? I don't know.
Yes it's like it's like a rotisserie chicken inside of a can. So does it have feet like you know the.
No it's like a rotisserie chicken inside of a can. And so are you supposed to throw it on a skillet? I have no idea. I've never gotten one.
All right well if you're gonna do it we gotta figure out how to make it. Yeah. How to prepare it.
I don't know. Yeah I mean. How do they keep it from rotting in the can? It has a jelly around it.
It's filled with oil. Yeah it's filled with the the jelly. So canned rotisserie chicken.
That whole. And it brings up cat food. Canned whole chicken. Click on that. Canned whole chicken. There it is right there.
He's pulling it out. It's the entire chicken. This picture down here. Click on. There it is. Yeah right there.
Look at that. It's in sheathed in a goo. God it's it that's disgusting. And it's cooked and everything.
Yeah it's cooked. You can just start eating it right out of the can. Yes you could just pick up that leg and start eating it.
Oh lord. I mean I'm checking out the the jelly on there and it's like. Yeah. Well there's a lot of jelly on the spam too.
It slides out of the can. I imagine that's what that sounds like. It does. It hits the plate and it's like.
You sit there and it goes. What gets me is the can isn't huge so it's got to be a fairly small chicken.
I like to open up the can of spam and I like to turn the water on to boiling on the sink and I take the can and I rinse out the can before I even.
Out. I don't do any of that. I just I open it and I let it slide out of on the plate and I slice it into thin slices.
Fry it up. And then throw it on the frying pan and I love it. Yeah. It's extremely salty. You get the reduced sodium.
Yes I do. I have. I have. I try to. It's reduced by like a few grains. I know instead of you know. But it is. 100 percent your daily allowance.
It's 80 percent. It can be. The original stuff is really salty. Yeah. That's what I had because I got it probably a year ago and I was like all right I want to try.
My dad used to get it. I'm going to try it. I had like one slice. I was like I can't eat this. It's too salty.
That's good though. I put it. I put it on bread and I put mustard. Well it's big in Hawaii. Oh huge in Hawaii.
I mean they serve it at restaurants like McDonald's has spam. Yeah. There's that restaurant down the street that Hawaiian restaurant that they have spam.
Hawaiian restaurant. Yeah it's down there. You know where the cowboy chicken was down there. What's on the menu. Yeah spam. Yeah. That's interesting.
I didn't know we had a Hawaiian restaurant. There's a Hawaiian restaurant. Hold on. Say that again. Where the old what you said. You know where it's south of 121.
Where the pay way is and there's a cowboy or there was a cowboy chicken back there. OK. Off of Preston. Off of Preston. Just south of 120.
There's a little strip. There's a Hawaiian restaurant. That sounds good. I see it. There it is. L and L Hawaiian barbecue I believe.
Oh that's in the colony it looks like. No. No. It's right there. It's on Preston Road. Oh there you go. Yeah. That looks good. Go to the website real quick.
But yeah they have you know traditional Hawaiian foods. Well it's got four and three quarters stars. Seven hundred eleven reviews.
And we need to go there for lunch. Yeah I've been there. I got some chicken dish. It was good. Sounds great. We got to go there for lunch one of these days.
That's wrong. Nothing. What you fart. No. Hey dude. You leaned. I did lean. I attempted to fart. Nothing came out. Oh was it one of those where your butts like that.
No that's liquid. Yeah it kind of was. Great. We've the whole house. Aren't you thankful that your body tells you that. What does it did. Yeah what if it didn't give you that signal that you actually close the door because everyone would shit themselves.
You're not going to like. Yeah. Everyone would shit themselves. I think some of it's a learning curve. You can anticipate it because you can feel it.
You kind of. Yeah. I think that's an autonomic thing. And those moments where some did leak out like you didn't stop it in time. Like a shark. Oh the world.
It does. It happens to all of us. It hasn't happened to me yet. It happens to me weekly. No not weekly.
I'm not. So gross though. And you can feel it in your underwear and you're like shit. Yes it is. I just shit my pants. I've been lucky enough I haven't. Yeah thank you for sharing Paul. Yeah well you know we've all done it.
Yeah. Producer wants to know what is it monthly weekly. What's what has it. No it isn't weekly daily. I would say it's probably once every several years. Oh. Every time when you wake up and you're peeing in the middle of the bathroom floor.
I haven't done that. He said I tell you what scared the shit out of me when I was a little. I was a teenager. I might have been in middle school. I had a dream. I had a dream that I was I had to pee really really bad. And that lived in Indonesia right in Jakarta.
And I had a dream that I was wandering around Jakarta looking for a place to pee. They don't urinate over there do they. Yeah they urinate over there. OK. So I was wandering around and in the middle of the street their stop signs are like a barrel.
Filled with rocks with a stick and a sign. Right. That's what their stop signs are like. So high tech high tech. And so I finally found one of those barrels and I was like you know what. I can't wait anymore. No one's looking. I'm going to go ahead and pee.
And I went oh I was like oh my God. Thank you. I was very stringent on their laws. I don't know. But I woke up and I wet the bed.
That's how it happens. Yeah. And I dream about it. And I it freaked me out because I was like how am I like. Right. Right. Mr. Producer is making fun of me is making fun of me. He's calling me a bed wetter.
But if we have dreams right if we have dreams that we're going to pee. What. I've had that.
And you actually did. Yeah I remember when I was a younger kid I went full blown with the bathroom and I remember in the dream I think I was with one of my friends or something and we're like I got to go to the bathroom.
I got to go to the bathroom. Right. And we're looking for a bathroom to go to. And I was like all right I'm gonna go. Ready. And I'm ready. Ready. Let's go one two three go.
And I woke up. I was like oh it's traumatic. Well as you're like it was a life lesson right there to me I was like oh my God I just peed my bed and what would ever stop me from doing it again.
If I have another dream like that it's going to happen again. Now it's literally never happened since it happened. It's happened once in my whole life. Last week. But it was. Yeah.
But it was traumatic. I was like holy shit. I was like 12 10 or 12 or but it rocked my world. I have dreams like that all the time. But I get up and go pee now.
Right. Well I would say I would. I drink a lot of water like before I go to bed. Some people say don't drink. I drink water before I go to bed full bottle and I drink after I sleep through the night if you don't do that.
You can what would you say. So you want to get to pee. You're right. You may be right. I mean you probably can last all night if you don't do that. OK. So I'm saying. Yeah. No I agree with that. Well I mean I don't know. Is it is it healthy to drink water before you go to bed.
I don't think it's unhealthy or healthy. It just makes you have to pee before you wake up in the morning. Yeah. The point is it interrupts your sleep. What a person I was telling the story to say yeah I'm at that age where I have to get up every morning at the same time I go pee like at 330 in the morning.
And this guy looks at me says well you just don't drink water before you go to bed and then just kind of carry it on with his life you know. And I was like oh that's good advice. And I would venture to say probably don't drink after like eight. Yeah.
I stopped drinking. I stopped drinking. As soon as I eat dinner I'm done. Right. Really. Yeah. Well you know what I'll give it a shot but I try to drink. I try to drink as much water as I can all the time.
Well you don't have to drink it 24 hours a day. You know what's weird is that they say it helps you lose weight but how much water do you have to drink because I drink a lot. So I guess I'm going to stop drinking water. Well no you have to drink. No I mean I'm not going to be drinking like a dude. Maybe I'm going to start to start doing that because I get up religiously in the like 330 in the morning. Yeah. Don't drink like an eight o'clock stop except for lately. With the kids being home from school I have my whole schedule dudes like us.
My schedule is whacked. I don't know how these dudes like us are have their kids home from college or your kids move back. It blows up everything. Oh man. Well you get used to them not being there. I mean my house is empty now. You know we're halfway empty nesters right until they come home from school. But right. It's an adjustment you get you adjust to them not being there. You're like I guess when they come back you're just like I don't either. I want them to be there but they're up late. Yeah. I have to adjust. Yeah but they need to like I mean
they can't be making noises stomping around upstairs and playing loud music. They have no respect for that. I have a job. You can you can f around but I can't. I tried to. I feel bad for my wife because she kind of sleeps through it. Hopefully she's able to sleep through it with me. I'm able to manipulate my schedule. But even though I'm manipulating my schedule I mean I've been up for the last this past week. Right. Maybe the last two weeks. You know it started off going to bed at one two three.
Right. Now I'm sure you're not. I went to bed at four o'clock. That kills four o'clock. And I got up at murders me. I got up at nine o'clock this morning. As soon as Terry went to work and I was like fuck me man. I am exhausted. Yeah. Like even right now I'm I'm absolutely exhausted. Yeah. And I'm probably not going to be able to fall asleep again. I'm going to try. You know I'm whatever. So yeah the kids you know back to the peeing thing. They I was talking to somebody.
Well no it's interesting because like you know we're getting older and we have to wake up and we have to pee and we we have to monitor how much we drink before we go to bed. Well somebody was telling me they went to their doctor and they said it's because you're not emptying your bladder.
It's like when you pee you're not emptying everything that's in your bladder. Why not. I don't know the answer to that. But he gave him some sort of pill to take. And now he just like
boom drops well empties entire bladder and he is sleeping. He could be he doesn't wake up for eight or nine hours if it's a prostate issue because I know when you get older your prostate has a tendency to get larger and it blocks your whatever tube.
It impacts your your urine. That's why you're your you go into these bathrooms sometimes and of course the men's you're all standing next to each other six inches apart and the old guys up there.
You know I've never had a problem. The only time I've ever had a problem peeing is when I got a hard on. Well either all these old guys have woodies or their prostate issues. So even though I'm able to process that you know it's kind of difficult
peeing with a hard on but you know you have to concentrate and then we have to then you're like oh my god it's aiming up and then you have to push it down and then yeah then there's that. God. Yeah.
The toilet seat.
So you know that's that's what that is that's your prostate impacting your Jeff. What. No that's him.
I heard it. God.
That's funny. Yeah. So yeah the prostate impacts the urination. That's why they stick your finger up your butt to feel it. What.
Yes that's what they check.
No but what you say you said that's why they stick the finger for your butt to feel it.
They stick your finger up your butt to feel the prostate to see if it's that's why they stick your finger up your butt their finger or feel it. Yeah. Oh her. That's right. Because you go to a small hand female doctor. Correct.
And you go to a meat packing a meat packing.
Yeah. Some sort of wrestler MMA wrestler fingers Andre the giant. Yeah.
Sausage fingers. Perfect. You guys you and your sensitivity to prostate exams. I have no sensitivity. I think it's a smart move. What are you talking about. You know I don't know. It doesn't bother me at all. Well you get yours check what six times a year.
They told me stop coming. You don't need to check it again. Anyway. Yeah. But I have one more before I get a free
A little hole punch. Get you to five you get one free and check out those big under the giant sausage fingers where he's holding the 12 ounce.
Look how his hands are so big under the giant saying that the the can is smaller than you know every force and fingers you're stacked up on top of each other. Like are you going to handshake it. It is smaller than the forehands are tall. Yeah. So what did he die of. He died early relatively early. He made the princess. I think he had a heart attack. When you're that big. He had a condition gigantism or whatever. So he had a heart attack.
When you're that big. He had a condition gigantism or whatever. Something like that. Did he get a process a lot of blood through that body. So your heart. He'll get a heart attack. I think is sad. That's got a lot of work to do. I mean look at that hand. Oh my God. That's that's tremendously large.
I just remember hearing Princess Bride. Look at the lady. Hello lady.
Yeah. That's too bad. You know it makes you wonder. I mean they have they have they have robotic hearts yet. Yes they do. Artificial heart artificial heart. They think they'll be alive today.
I'm assuming that it was a heart attack.
I don't know. We don't know. Andre the giant death cause of death.
Death cause of death Andre the giant. So I'm just based off of his. I could have been. I understand he was a huge. There's a documentary out there about him as well. And he was a huge drinker where he would drink like cases of beer at one city. Yeah that's not good. Heart attack. There you go. He did have a heart attack. He died in 93.
Wow. I didn't realize it was that long. Heart attack. Yeah. Cases of beer. And it would make sense because he is so big. He wouldn't feel he would drink at least 20 of them before he even felt buzzed.
Yeah he would go and just drink tremendous. There's a documentary again I'd recommend it was really good.
When they're talking about his amount that he would drink.
Like I said that size you'd have to drink that much to get the same buzz that we would write or to be drunk.
You build up the tolerance right. Sure. Sure. You stick three three cases down to four.
Such a great movie. It is the Princess Bride.
You ever heard that not to get back to politics. But you know how Ted Cruz loves that movie.
No I didn't know it's one of his favorite movies. And so he has touted that on his Twitter and the cast of that movie is super liberal right because they're like take this down.
Yeah so they they get into this Twitter war so I can't like the movie right. So they think yeah they don't like him and he's like well you guys are like this is my favorite movie. So whatever. Suck it. Suck it. That's stupid. Yeah it totally. You can't like my movie. Right. Is that what they are saying. No but they basically were dogging him.
Yeah they were dogging him. I know it's so stupid.
It's a great movie that it's frustrating. That's that's where we're at. And yeah that we can't even yeah yeah can't even like a movie now. If your politics aren't match right. They don't want you. Well I think the bottom line is they didn't want him. They didn't want him back. They didn't want him. They didn't want him back. They didn't want him to make it up. They did not want him to make it up. We are a great movie.
We'll be back in a minute.
We can't even, yeah, yeah.
Can't even like a movie now,
if your politics aren't match.
Right, they don't want you,
well I think the bottom line is they didn't want him,
they didn't want him as a fan.
Well just today, today is the 10th.
They don't get to pick that.
What's it? No they don't.
This wasn't a subject on our list to talk about.
I'm sorry, yeah, no I didn't mean to.
No, no, just what I'm about to bring up.
Oh.
Is the, we're talking about politics
and we're talking about being shunned.
You know the guy that owns the pillow company?
Yeah. Mike Lindell.
Yes, Mike Lindell's.
Fox News won't have him on.
He claims that he's supposed to have
some sort of announcement coming out today,
tomorrow and Wednesday.
He says he has evidence of voter election fraud.
So he said Fox News won't let him on?
Yeah, Fox News has banned him from.
They've pulled his stuff I believe.
No, no they haven't pulled his stuff.
They just won't let him be a guest speaker
or like a, they won't have him on the air.
Oh, so what are they talking about?
Yeah, but no, I've been watching Fox News
and they have his stuff on there.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I mean as far as his pillow.
Yeah, his, my pillow.
Yeah, but you haven't heard anything outside of that.
No, I haven't, I have not.
And apparently he got into a screaming match
with somebody on MSNBC.
He went on MSNBC.
Yeah, well they were saying, talking shit about him
and he basically came back to him and says,
oh, you care about me?
Yes.
You know?
Yes, you need a hug.
Yeah, you need a hug.
He said something like that, you need a hug?
He doesn't give a shit.
And you know what, maybe he does have evidence.
I mean, I don't know, he's always claimed he did.
He says he has spent over a million dollars
getting the evidence.
I don't know what that means.
Well again, until it's shown and proven.
Yep.
Yeah, I'm sick of it.
I'm done.
I'm sick of it.
Yeah, I'm done with it.
What do they call those?
You know, the carrot.
Well something came out today.
I read today that there is in Fulton County, Atlanta,
a Democrat judge finally granted,
whatever group was chasing it down,
granted them to be able to go look at ballots again.
Not do like a full audit, but just to look at the ballots
because there were two pollsters,
three pollsters that came forward.
They were Democrat pollsters that signed affidavits saying,
this isn't right, something's not right here.
And what they were doing was they were looking at ballots
that were pristine, meaning they should have been coming out
of an envelope, right, because they're absentee ballots.
Right.
So they should have been folded.
They should have had a crease,
should have been kind of crumpled,
should have been something, and they were pristine.
And in the oval, you know, same kind of thing
where it's just Biden, they're all Biden,
and it's just Biden, not the down ballot.
And in the oval, there is a little crescent moon.
Oh, and they were uniform throughout all of them.
Every single one of them had the exact same pattern
of that crescent moon in,
so it was obvious they were photocopied
one after another, boom, boom, boom, photocopied.
There's also, they're saying that there's watermarks
on these ballots.
I don't believe that.
That would have come out by now.
God, I hate all the fricking bullshit.
Yeah, because I watched that video.
They were like, before the election,
it was some long-haired dude that was like,
I have inside information
because I'm being paid by the government.
And Trump, you know, and he was saying,
and Trump has made this agency in charge of this.
Every single ballot has a secret watermark on it,
and it's gonna be, I mean, and I was like,
oh, no way, wow, conspiracy theory, bullshit, all bullshit.
QAnon or Q&A or whatever, all that stuff was total crap.
Total crap.
So yeah, I get tired of listening
to these white knight scenarios.
That's what I say, I say, I say,
it's like, I'm not gonna pay attention
until someone comes out and says, here's proof,
and then people go, oh shit, yeah, this is real.
We know in every election,
somebody fraudulently votes, right?
They vote multiple times.
I believe, I believe that.
But when you manufacture them,
when you show up with a thousand of ballots.
Thousands upon thousands of ballots.
Well, I do believe that it was totally corrupted
in Biden, I don't think truly won.
But until, I have no proof on that,
that's just my feeling.
You know, and nothing will happen,
and nothing will be proven.
I just want to, and again, nothing, I think will change,
even if it is proven, but it will completely delegitimize
and hopefully change things for the future.
Yeah, what you're trying to do right now,
and they're fighting us on that.
That's the whole point.
They want to bring back integrity to US elections.
Because right now, an overwhelming percentage
of Republicans, right, which is half the country,
believe it was stolen, and they don't believe
in the integrity of the elections.
And even like 30% of Democrats believe that.
It was like some crazy number.
You would think it would be like 99% of Democrats,
you know, believe that it was not stolen.
I almost think they need to go out back
to the fucking Chads and pencil it in.
Get rid of the electronics.
Yeah, man, maybe. And say,
it will take us two weeks to count all this,
and we'll tell you who won.
Right, I don't know.
I'm curious where...
Get the electronics out of it.
They're sending all the illegal aliens to the regions.
Like, are they sending them strategically
to Republican areas?
Yes.
I read that the other day.
Yes, the answer is yes.
And step two, step one is get them everywhere
in the country where they need them.
Step two, give them amnesty.
Step three, let them vote.
This is a calculated coup attempt,
is what it basically is.
That's why the...
I saw through this years ago.
That's why the, like the Cubans, right?
Where he was sending the Cubans back,
not saying, you're not welcome here.
That's right.
Yet the southern border is wide open.
Wide open to anybody who wants to come
and yet literally sending Cuban exiles back.
The reason being is Cubans typically vote conservative.
That's right.
They vote Republican.
Yeah.
Wow.
Well, that's because they live in...
That's right.
They live in communist country.
Because they just escaped.
They just escaped a socialist economy
or a socialist government, that communist government,
that we apparently are headed towards.
Yeah.
It's crazy, right?
So what is it?
It's August.
So, fuck man, we're only eight months in.
Yeah, he's done that much damage.
It's insane.
Inflation.
I mean, just, ugh.
Tell you what, the whole...
He's gonna go down as the worst president ever.
No, probably not.
I mean, cause you know, historians
write it the way they want to.
Yeah, the winners tell the story.
I tell you what, I think Kamala,
Kamala, she is a complete bust.
She'd blown it.
She was not qualified to be given.
Well, I know, I think we all knew that.
Yeah, we all knew that.
It's worse than what I thought it was gonna be.
Yeah, absolutely.
Because...
With a friendly media?
I know.
How can you...
And they're kinda starting to turn on her.
They're turning on her.
And Biden.
Yeah, so what happens in 2024 when Biden is,
I don't even know how old he's gonna be, 82.
He will not run a second term.
And he's like, I'm not running.
Typically the vice president steps up and runs.
Yeah.
I don't see her doing it.
Well, she may be out before that happens.
He may be out before that happens.
You think she's out?
Can they get rid of her?
He can.
Has that ever happened?
That's a great question.
What do you mean?
Can the president dismiss the vice president
and get another one?
I don't know.
That's a great question.
They're elected.
So they elected him as a, I don't know,
I'm kinda shooting from the hip here.
Mr. Producer, you look that up.
Yeah, look that up.
Can the president dismiss the vice president?
I don't think so, because I think Trump would...
I don't think so either.
I think he would have gotten rid of Pence.
Trump would have?
Yeah.
No, he liked Pence.
Up until the very end.
What's all the drama going on with,
what's going on with the whole thing?
Yeah, but it was the very end.
I think Pence kinda bit his tongue till the end,
and now he's...
Well, yeah, because he wasn't gonna,
like, he wasn't gonna go against what the,
he wasn't gonna go against the, what,
the results of the election.
He wasn't gonna do that.
All right, let's see here, what does it say?
No, it says no.
It says no.
Well, Art Fried...
Scroll down for us.
Art Fried, who was a professor emeritus
at Plymouth State, said no.
The president can choose a new running mate.
A new running mate, whenever you want.
Okay, yeah, so they,
because the vice president is elected as well.
Yeah, because you vote for both of them.
So she would have to resign.
Correct.
And she, knowing hell, she's gonna do that.
But she...
She has aspirations to be president.
There's no question about it.
She can't get it.
Wow, I just think Biden's gonna get it.
Oh, she sucks.
She sucks worse than Biden.
Yeah, she does.
She's the worst person in the whole Senate.
I know.
Not just that, but she doesn't know
what the hell she's doing.
No, she doesn't.
She can't speak publicly without laughing.
I know, it's embarrassing.
When she gets a hard question, she laughs.
It's embarrassing.
She's the cackle queen.
Yeah, even the media's turning on her.
What is up with, what was her name?
Jen Balsacki.
What about her?
She just took, she took...
Was she, did she know Biden?
A talking point peasant.
Was she, did she know Biden as a child?
Is that her, is a young child?
No.
Biden was kind of...
No.
The one that's sniffing the ear.
No, that's not her.
That's been debunked?
Because it looks just like her.
Oh, I don't know.
I don't think it's her.
Oh, that would be awful if that were true.
I don't think that's, I think it's just some girl
who was a redhead and now Sackie's a redhead.
They had her face.
Five sniffing redhead.
Yeah.
I mean, that could be wrong, but I don't believe so.
Her? Yeah.
No.
Look how old he is.
No, that's new.
Oh, look at her leaning away.
So awkward.
No, he would have to be much younger
for that to be Jen Sackie.
God, look at that guy.
He's not very happy.
Yeah, he, no, that's not, that was in what, 2019,
when he did that.
She looks so uncomfortable.
God, look, he just loves smelling that hair.
Look at the one up in the right.
Well, he's really digging in on that one.
He's in there.
His nose is buried inside her hair.
Got the eyes closed, you know, it's just like.
He's like, ugh.
And there was some sort of secret service woman
that was sexually, not sexually assaulted,
but she was offended because he would go,
he would go skinny dipping in the pool.
He would go swimming. Joe Biden?
Yeah, he goes swimming nude.
Nude. No.
So gross, I don't wanna look at Biden.
He just makes me sick.
He makes me sick.
He doesn't know what the hell he's doing right now.
Oh, yeah, he hasn't even, he doesn't know who he is.
Did you see him try to play off
when he forgot the name of the Santas?
Governor Who?
Yeah, when he said Governor Who,
he played it off as he didn't know and didn't hear
and then like said Governor Who and people started laughing
and then he's like, yeah, yeah,
so you see how I feel about that.
Yeah.
He's so full of shit.
Yeah.
He has no idea what's going on.
That's total elderly abuse.
Hey, but we talked about that before.
Yeah, so.
Anyway, I was gonna ask you guys.
So this is a total hard left here.
Was it a hard right?
Hard left, yeah.
I went and bought locks, new locks for the house.
So, you know, when we built the house,
it had all the brass, the nasty yellow brass.
Right.
Well, it's not nasty.
Well.
It's just brass.
I have that throughout my house.
My whole house is that way, yes.
Thanks, Paul.
Come on, my house is that way.
You're an asshole.
Oh my God, look at that, that's brass over there.
That's so nasty.
Your house is nasty.
Anyway, it, anyway.
When your house gets 20 years old.
Awkward silence.
No, it isn't awkward.
When your house is 20 years old
and all your knobs are all bent and tarnished.
Because you have three boys who just destroy your house.
Three boys.
Every door knob in my house I look at,
might, could be any color, but it's brass and it's gross.
Probably has poop on it.
Yeah, it's got everything on it.
Anyway, so we painted out, we painted our kitchen
and went to black knobs.
And so then Shelly was like, okay, well,
back door needs to have matching knobs.
Your garage door needs to have matching knobs.
So I went to the darker color, right?
So yeah, I went to Home Depot
and got some cheapo quick set.
Is it quick set?
I don't know.
Is that the name of that?
Quick, quick set.
Quick sets one.
Schlage.
Schlong.
I see it, the more expensive one.
Schlage.
That's the more expensive one.
But yeah, quick set.
Anyway, so yeah, that's what I,
I spent the weekend in my, we haven't even brought it.
And it went well?
It was great until I was clamping it down
and suddenly you turn the knob and it stays that way.
So anyway.
It stuck?
It stuck.
How many times did you pull it off and put it back on?
So part of the story that I'm missing here
is that I really shouldn't be doing anything
because last Monday I had surgery on my shoulder.
Correct.
Massive, massive surgery on my shoulder.
He has a new bionic arm.
Literally I woke up from the surgery.
And you know what, let's back up a little bit.
You had a surgery where you kind of scraped out the shoulder.
I had a partial tear and I have,
now I have a cow's tendon holding everything together.
Wow.
So you had a partial tear of your rotator cuff?
Yeah.
Okay, I didn't realize that.
I thought they went in and kind of scraped out the shoulder.
And so we, so we was more involved than I thought.
Yeah, yeah.
They, like I said, they had the,
they put the cow's Achilles tendon
and they anchored it to my tendon
and then anchored it to my bone.
Right.
Oh wow.
Okay.
All right.
All right, so when they did my MRI from my surgery in 2005,
there is a metal thing in there.
I'm not sure what it is and he wasn't sure what it was,
but it totally clouded the MRI.
It's a coin.
It's a silver dollar from 1904.
It's Dogecoin.
It's a Dogecoin.
Anyway, so it clouded the MRI.
So he was like, I can tell that we need to go in.
Like you need to have surgery.
It's definitely partially torn.
I just can't see how bad it is
because of that metal messed up the MRI.
So, but part of me was like thinking,
cause your recovery wasn't that, wasn't horrible,
like horrible, horrible, was it?
No.
Right?
It was just, no, it wasn't that bad.
It's just long.
Right.
Cause I was going into surgery thinking,
hoping that it was like not bad.
Right.
And then I woke up to them telling me,
well, everything you can do in a shoulder surgery
he had to do, you were down for four hours.
And I was like, shit.
Well, it felt like 10 seconds to me.
Yeah.
Did it?
It actually didn't on this one
because I dreamt during the surgery and-
Did you urinate?
Did you dream your pain?
I dreamed that I shat all over my doctor.
And it ends up, that's what I did.
So you're in new clothes and everything when you came out.
No, he was wearing-
And you smelled like antiseptic.
He was wearing those shit all over me.
He had the little outfits on with the,
they don't have the butt on the back.
No, you woke up with a catheter is what happened.
Probably.
A big tube shoved up my ass.
No, up your pee hole.
No, they've got one of those bedpans.
Right.
Like your story.
Where you, hey,
what's going on?
I don't have any underwear on, nurse.
Yeah, that started.
You started peeing everywhere?
That happened.
So yeah, so you're saying that you had the surgery.
So you're not supposed to be doing anything anyways.
Well, yeah, no, I'm in a sling.
And you're going around the house
and you're doing stupid shit.
I'm in one of these fancy slings.
And you're utilizing your right hand
because twisting the screwdriver and stuff,
when all those muscles are going through your shoulder,
it's just like-
I'm not engaging the shoulder.
Listen.
But you are, every time you do something,
you're engaging.
I'm not gonna disagree with you.
I'm not, I'm not.
Because you'd be wrong.
Because I would be wrong.
You're not supposed to do shit.
You're supposed to lay on the couch
and not move your arm in any way, shape or form.
Correct.
But you know what, you got shit to do.
You know, I can't-
No, that's when you enlist your sons.
Well, yeah, and they did, no, trust me.
They've been doing a bunch.
They need to do all of it for the next couple of weeks.
Yeah, but I should have made them do them.
I should have made them do the locks.
They need to learn anyways.
I know they do.
And they finally, you know,
I got frustrated a couple times
because he was aching and I was like-
You didn't throw anything.
I think your door holes were too big.
Door holes?
Yeah, I think they cut the knob hole
through the door too big,
allowing the knob to not be directly centered
to where the tongue should be.
I think it was either high or low.
That's what I think.
Because there was a period where
I had pushed your knob, the old one,
the old new one, to where I thought it was level
and it was opening and closing easily.
Turned counterclockwise, clockwise, counterclockwise,
back and forth, back and forth, back and forth,
and it was working fine.
Then all of a sudden,
when I shut the door and opened it back up,
I know I kinda-
And you're like, look, see, it's working now.
And then it fucking didn't work again.
I know it didn't.
It stuck again.
Why?
It's because I think it went up.
That's why I'm saying-
It was out of alignment.
Yeah, I think you need a new door.
I don't know.
Yeah, well, no, I need a new door anyway.
Anyway, so all I did was I clamped it down
and then it stuck and then I backed off the screws
barely, barely to where it didn't jiggle,
but it also didn't stick.
So that's how I solved the problem.
Gotcha.
But you know what?
That whole conversation brought up a whole different thing.
You were like, why don't you get the one
where you have a keypad on the outside of the door?
And I was like, we have a doggie door
and it's not secure and anybody can stick their arm through
and just open up the door and walk in.
So I'm not trying to keep somebody out of the house, right?
And so we hardly ever lock it anyway
because we know the boys are out late
and they're gonna come in
and do I really wanna buy this $100?
It's a matter of convenience.
And they're not 100 bucks.
Yeah, they are.
They can be 100 bucks.
They are.
They're 100 bucks.
Well, the one on my front door is 49.
Really?
Yeah.
Really?
What'd you get it?
Home Depot.
Preston bought it.
Okay, well I don't know what to say to that
because none of them,
none of the keypad ones were that cheap.
Even mine was twice that much.
Are you sure it was 49?
And not 149?
Yeah, I think so.
He told, no, well I mean, I hope it wasn't 149.
It was more than 49 bucks.
It was.
I asked him, well I'll ask him again.
Because those locks, the one we got,
is just the keypad.
It's not Wi-Fi, it's not Bluetooth.
Even if it is 149, I still.
And it was 100 bucks.
I could've sworn he said it was 49 bucks.
But even if it is 149, I don't think it's a big deal.
You know, because yeah, you're right.
You can bend down, you can crawl through the dog door,
you can get in.
But you know, it's a matter of convenience.
It's a matter of like, hey look, I can come over here,
I can punch a code in.
I can come over here and I can do a Wi-Fi unlock,
I can do a Bluetooth unlock.
It's just a matter of convenience.
Hey, I got a keypad.
I got a friend coming over.
He's gonna take care of Sasha, feed her and stuff.
I got a code for him to get in, boom.
That's a good point.
That's probably the most valid point
you've come up with so far.
Is somebody who's not family,
where we go on vacation and we actually do
wanna lock the doors.
Because no one's coming, no one's leaving.
Let's say you're locked out of the house.
Right.
And again, it's all back on, it's a matter of convenience.
Do I wanna have to reach down and stick my hand
through the dog door or climb through the dog door
when I can just touch an app and pop it though
because it's right open.
I get, I.
One of the reasons I got the keypad up front
is because my kids were losing the keys.
Right.
And I was like, I'm tired of this.
My kids don't even have keys.
Well, we lock our house.
Right.
Well, you're in a really bad neighborhood.
We are.
You have brass knobs.
Yeah, we have brass.
Right.
So.
And your house of all houses with that German shepherd,
good Lord.
Yeah, no one's coming into this house.
Yeah, so we lock our house
and but the kids were losing it.
So they would be like, I'm out of the,
I'm locked out of the house.
I'm like, I'm tired of dealing with this.
Oh, that would be really frustrating.
Yeah.
So they were, I guess they were technically latch key kids,
what we call latch key, right?
So they'd have keys.
Right.
They'd go to school, they'd come home.
This was when I was still going to the office,
when my wife was still going to the office.
Yeah, you guys weren't home.
Yeah, so they were, you know, from,
you know, I guess in grade school,
they went to AlphaBest and whatnot,
but basically starting a middle school.
They're at home on their own.
That's right.
And, you know, if they didn't have their key,
they didn't get in the house.
Yeah.
So, you know.
That would be frustrating.
You know, and they would continually lose it,
continually lose it, you know,
and we put the keypad on the back garage
for the just in case and then stuff like that.
And finally, when that front lock just died,
I was like, I'm gonna replace it with the keypad.
I go, I don't want the wifi one.
I don't want the Bluetooth one.
I just want one and you just punch a code in.
Don't you?
I mean, yeah, sorry, I mean, go ahead, finish.
No, I was gonna say, you know, I didn't want the wifi.
So yeah, you had a legitimate use case for it.
Correct.
Right, so I don't have a use case for it, right?
And yes, I can spend $110 buying a keypad thing,
and we almost did.
I pulled it off the shelf.
We talked about it.
I put it back.
I pulled it off.
I put it back.
I mean, over and over and over again.
So, I mean, I don't, here's the thing.
I don't need the convenience.
I don't need the convenience of it.
But Sean, let me ask you.
You're very technologically,
you're very technologically involved, right?
You do a lot of Bluetooth and wifi,
and you're trying to automate your whole house, right?
You do all this automation stuff.
Do you not have concerns about it being,
oh, well, hold on.
So, Aaron, I know where you're going.
Well, hold on, let me finish that real quick.
Do you do it?
You're not really focused on the security aspect of it.
You're really focused on the convenience aspect of it.
It's all, to me, it's about the quality of life.
Right, it's convenience.
It makes my quality of life better.
It's not necessarily about a convenience.
It's a matter of, hey, man, this is easier for me.
It's quasi-convenience.
It's the quality of life.
Right.
If I don't have to get up.
But the security part of it, you're not like,
I'm getting this Bluetooth thing
because it's the most secure thing out there.
No, because it's not.
It's not.
And look, if someone wants to get into your house.
They're gonna do it.
They're gonna kick it in the house
because every freaking door,
I'd say 99% of the doors out there.
Is kicked down a bolt.
Well, not just kicked down,
but they've got bump keys
that they can come up to your house, and I guarantee it.
What's a bump key?
Okay, so they have keys that they can put in your door
that you can kind of like,
and just kind of.
Pick your lock.
In a matter of seconds.
Yeah.
They can get in your house.
Really?
Period.
I don't care what kind of lock.
So it doesn't matter.
So after you take the element of,
I'm securing my house because you're not.
Yeah.
Based on a lock.
I mean, you can go buy a $500 lock
that's got some sort of,
they've got really cool encryption locks.
Right.
That you cannot,
you can't bump, break into.
You can't pick it is the bottom line.
And you can spend the money on that.
But really, again.
And they just kick the door in.
That's my point.
If they want in your house,
they're gonna get in the house.
They're gonna get in through a window.
There's all kinds of ways to get in your house.
They can get in through your garage door.
Reproducing your garage door opener.
There's all kinds of ways to get in the house.
That's why I lock my door to my garage.
Do you really?
Yeah.
Every night?
Every night.
No shit.
Damn.
It goes through a routine.
I check all my doors,
make sure they're all locked.
Well, good for you.
I mean, after watching some of those documentaries
of serial killers on Netflix,
I don't blame you.
Michelle and I were both like, golly.
I mean, it's what these people would do.
They'd just break into people's houses.
Well, they'd just walk in.
Rape and kill.
And yeah, they'd walk right in.
Yeah.
And you know, that's the way it's gonna go down.
He always found something open.
All the time.
So I look at it like, you know,
you can't live your life being scared
of terrorists that are gonna bomb you.
No, you can't.
I'm not scared.
You don't have to be scared to die.
I don't live my life scared.
I just don't want anyone.
I'm not saying you specifically.
I'm just saying, in general,
people don't wanna do certain things
because they fear that, you know,
like you said, my house isn't secure.
Well, your house isn't secure.
You know, but I'm not gonna live,
I'm not gonna be afraid of living.
Right.
You know, because once you are afraid,
because you're talking about, you know,
I'm not gonna be afraid to have
in all these smart devices in the house,
because you were kind of alluding that people can what?
Hack them or something.
But what are they gonna,
what, are they gonna turn on a fucking light?
Well, no, they're gonna go into your house.
I mean, they'll unlock your front door
because you have some sort of wifi lock.
I don't know.
All right, well, it's a Bluetooth, but still,
I get it.
Bluetooth, right.
But, you know, it all goes back to the same thing.
They can, what is, what's the end game for them?
To get in, and if the end game is to get in
to steal something, they don't need,
they get anywhere they want.
A lot easier than breaking your Bluetooth code.
Yeah, so easy.
And hacking your lock.
Yeah, and those people that know how to do it,
hats off to them.
You still have to do it.
And you have to get past the-
But you also have stupid people
who's gonna go in there and hack your shit
and just change your code.
Now you're like, what the hell?
I can't get into my own house.
Who does that though?
These stupid people, these kids.
Where have you heard the stories of this?
I read it in the Dallas Morning News.
Well, I imagine- Are you serious?
I imagine it, I imagine something like that happens.
You're talking about like pranksters.
Yeah, pranksters, that's what these hackers do.
They just make your life terrible.
These people who- Kind of run somewhere.
Why do they do it?
Right.
Why do they do it?
Because they're pain in the ass.
Yeah.
You know?
Why create some of these viruses?
Well, because of the pain.
From that perspective, but again,
why do I wanna live scared
that someone's gonna do that?
Right.
You know, in the meantime, I'm gonna,
I'm gonna, Alexa, turn my bar light on.
Alexa, turn my fence light on.
You know, I like it, I think it's cool.
I think it's cool, it's convenient.
I'm sitting on the couch.
Alexa, turn the fireplace light off.
See, I don't see the need for that.
There's a difference of opinion there.
Yeah, it is totally opinion.
You know, it's just, I don't need that,
and I don't want it, you know,
whether someone's listening or not,
or recording at all times or not.
Oh yeah, then there's that.
Because they're doing that anyways.
You got phones.
It's just, I understand, but you know,
I don't need more of that in my home.
Right.
And I have no problem getting up off my butt,
change the thermometer, or the thermostat,
or turn a light on or something like that.
I will tell you this.
I am getting a little upset about the Nest.
Now that you're paying attention,
now that I've mentioned something.
They're changing it.
I just dealt with that two days ago.
I reset my whole schedule.
Incredible.
The next day, it was changed again.
So, okay, so your experience is too, Sean?
Yeah, and I even request,
so I got on the phone with them for,
I was on the phone for over an hour.
They were going through each one,
trying to figure out troubleshooting of this and that.
So now they're gonna send me two new ones.
Two new Nests.
Yeah, so they're gonna swap it out,
because it's falling off the network and everything.
There's stuff going on with it.
But more than it just randomly changed.
Yeah, more than it just randomly.
Raising your temperatures.
Or lowering it, yeah.
No, no, no, hold on.
It's not lowering it.
Mine is lowering them.
So that's a malfunction.
You're talking about where you wanted a 74,
and the power company says, you know what,
we're struggling with energy right now.
We're gonna make it 78.
Is that what you're saying?
Mine goes up.
Oh, mine.
I specifically, end of last week,
changed mine to go down a couple degrees,
saying, all right, it's too fricking hot during the day.
I need to crank it down a couple of degrees
and see what it feels like.
The very next day,
it added another thing,
cranking it back up a couple degrees.
Insane.
So I have it go down at, let's say, 10 o'clock,
then at 10, 15, it was cranking it right back up.
They added another schedule to the thing.
Correct.
Another, you know, you could do the schedule with it, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Little dots, it added another one
on every single fucking day.
And you know for a fact you didn't do that.
I didn't do it.
And nobody else in your house did.
The night before, I changed it,
I turned it down, and then the next day, it was back up.
That is insane.
That's crazy.
Yeah, that is.
Mine works the opposite, though, for some reason.
See, yours is messing up.
That's what I'm saying.
The power company's not gonna lower your temperature.
Yeah, you've got it at 80, and that's,
I wake up to 68 degrees.
I'm not complaining, I love it.
I love it.
68.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
I bought a fan for my office
because it was fucking hot.
And I haven't turned that fan on yet.
I mean, ever since we got the new air conditioning unit,
or maybe the air conditioning units are just
that much better.
Well, I mean, they're definitely better.
They're 25 years newer.
Right.
No question they're better.
So, I don't know, whatever.
I don't, you know, I'm not, I mean,
I like the convenience of it.
I mean, it's not a big deal for me to get up
and change the thermostat, but you know,
it is kind of convenient to turn off a light.
Yeah.
Yeah, I get it.
Now, I have a bunch of wireless lights in my house,
and I'll control it with my phone,
but I don't have Alexa or Siri or anything like that
hooked up to it.
I could, I just don't have.
Well, you could, Siri, you could tell Siri
to turn off those lights, right?
Yes, you can.
On your phone, yeah.
Yeah, I could do all that.
And I have that, but I don't sit there and say,
you know, Siri, Siri doesn't actually work
with it like that.
I actually have to create something to push a button
for it to turn on. An action.
A shortcut.
It doesn't work quite as efficiently as Alexa does.
But you know, the Nest thing, it's like,
yeah, they're cool, they look neat, and I'm like,
I'm almost willing to go back to the old school thermostat
at this point to not deal with it.
I am too.
With the little, the knob.
Yeah, let's not deal with the bullshit
that I'm always having to adjust.
Sometimes we'll come up here and it's fricking hot.
Right.
And I have the thermostat cranked down,
so it's cool up here.
Well, by the time we get up here, and sometimes
we come up here, it's hot, and I'm just like,
what the hell?
Well, the stupid thing changed on me.
Them changing it without your knowledge is what's insane.
So, I have the, so I don't have a Nest,
but I have the wired ones that, they're digital.
They're not like the old school.
But yeah, I went up to the game room and it was set to 69.
Well, someone manually did it.
As my boys.
My boys went in there and.
Well, you know who did that.
Oh yeah.
Who did it?
One of you three.
Oh yeah, no, that's pretty easy.
And so yeah, I went through every, and like you said,
morning, leave, come back.
I mean, there's like eight programs
that you have to cycle through
and make sure every single one of them,
like, cause if the boys were messing with it,
one of those programs was set to 69.
Right.
So it went from 76 to 69.
And you know how that's the worst case scenario,
because you want temperature fluctuations to be subtle
to conserve energy.
Right.
Like you don't want it to be 78 until it's nighttime
and then make it 69 or 65,
because then it runs and runs and runs and runs and runs.
But if you maintain,
it's supposed to be a lot more energy efficient, right?
You see, I don't give a shit.
If I walk in and it's 78, I'm just going to change it to 70.
Yeah, that's fine.
Well, if you don't care what your bill looks like.
If you don't care about your electricity bill.
Compared to what it used to be, I mean, it's nothing.
You went to Energy Ogre.
Well that, and plus we got our new air conditioners.
Yeah.
I mean, the new air conditioners,
say they pay for themselves, man.
They really do.
Yeah, they do.
Yeah.
Yeah, did you pay for them outright?
Or did you?
We had to take out a $50,000, what is it called?
Home equity loan.
We had it because-
Just for those?
Well-
That's probably a good chunk.
About a half of it.
Oh shit.
And then another third of it went to
the foundation repairs.
Right.
So we had to fix the foundation and we needed,
I mean, fuck, that sucked.
Yeah.
But it needed to happen.
And I'll tell you what, I'm glad we did it.
Yeah.
Because it's all good.
And again, the quality of life is better
and the foundation's fixed.
Right.
And the air conditions work shit, man.
I mean-
You gotta do it.
And we have money in the bank now.
It's not much left.
I think we might have 10, 12, $13,000 left.
Right.
But you know, I love it.
No, it's all good.
I mean, it makes sense.
Wow, that flew.
It did.
The time flew.
Yeah, we zipped through this second half.
I didn't even finish my drink.
I know, what are you doing?
You're about to crack open another bottle.
Really?
You didn't finish your Yellowstone?
Oh wait, yeah you did.
Good lord. It's gone.
Yeah, it's gone all right.
It's spicy.
It is spicy.
Yeah.
We were talking about how it burns your vulva.
And you just did it.
It just burned my vulva.
Yes.
My uvula.
Right.
Uvula.
