WEBVTT

00:00:16.910 --> 00:00:19.629
Welcome to Botches Off -Road. Join us as we talk

00:00:19.629 --> 00:00:21.910
about everything from gear reviews to trail stories,

00:00:22.109 --> 00:00:24.429
tent camping to rock landing, and all things

00:00:24.429 --> 00:00:28.370
to do with the outdoors. Hey, real quick. So

00:00:28.370 --> 00:00:30.789
I always go back to the previous episode's transcript

00:00:30.789 --> 00:00:36.030
for the intro, right? And again, the AI thought

00:00:36.030 --> 00:00:41.530
we said tank camping. Just saying. We're skipping

00:00:41.530 --> 00:00:46.140
past that tent part to... Too fast, man. It's

00:00:46.140 --> 00:00:52.619
that Midwest lingo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, yeah,

00:00:53.079 --> 00:01:00.219
so today's weekend update. I just, about an hour

00:01:00.219 --> 00:01:02.659
ago, got done recording an episode with Benji

00:01:02.659 --> 00:01:05.819
for, shoot, what's his show called now? Newfound

00:01:05.819 --> 00:01:12.719
Overland. So that should come out tomorrow. Yeah,

00:01:12.819 --> 00:01:14.280
today's Wednesday. That should be out tomorrow.

00:01:15.720 --> 00:01:21.060
already um which you telling me i skipped past

00:01:21.060 --> 00:01:23.879
that tent camping too fast when benji read his

00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:26.719
intro today i have never heard this man talk

00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:32.939
that fast like oh man he's got a job man So then

00:01:32.939 --> 00:01:35.040
I called him out. I'm like, Benji, I've never

00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:37.459
heard you talk that fast. And he's like, yeah,

00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:42.459
I always go back and slow down the intro. That's

00:01:42.459 --> 00:01:46.579
a good way to do it. You know, by now, we probably

00:01:46.579 --> 00:01:49.140
should just have a prerecorded intro for each

00:01:49.140 --> 00:01:53.019
of us and just pop it in there between. Way less

00:01:53.019 --> 00:01:55.980
fun. I like the screw -ups. It can be, for sure.

00:01:56.079 --> 00:02:00.959
The screw -ups are fun. Yeah. The imperfectness.

00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:05.260
Since me and Mark did the same thing again for

00:02:05.260 --> 00:02:08.560
another weekend, I'll let Gavin tell us his weekend

00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:15.360
first. Yeah. Well, mine was, I want to say it

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:17.400
was boring, but not really. I got to bug up my

00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:21.719
ass. It was the first decent weekend that it

00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:25.620
wasn't raining, snowing, or windy, or all three

00:02:25.620 --> 00:02:30.599
at the same time. And decided to go out and...

00:02:31.310 --> 00:02:34.129
Start my reorganization of the back of Barry,

00:02:34.430 --> 00:02:38.389
which is my FJ's nickname, if you guys didn't

00:02:38.389 --> 00:02:43.370
know. And, yeah, I pulled everything out of the

00:02:43.370 --> 00:02:47.210
back. Pulled my drawers out. My fridge has already

00:02:47.210 --> 00:02:48.969
been out for the winter. I just kept it in the

00:02:48.969 --> 00:02:53.430
house. Pulled my shelving out. Pulled all of

00:02:53.430 --> 00:02:57.889
everything that I had in there. And then started

00:02:57.889 --> 00:03:00.870
working on trying to... Moved the fridge slide

00:03:00.870 --> 00:03:04.750
a little bit. Last year, because of the way that

00:03:04.750 --> 00:03:07.129
the seats are on the FJ, my fridge kept hitting

00:03:07.129 --> 00:03:09.930
the back seats, and it was kind of stopping the

00:03:09.930 --> 00:03:13.090
fridge from hitting that nice spot where it locks

00:03:13.090 --> 00:03:18.090
in on the slide. So I moved the slide out towards

00:03:18.090 --> 00:03:21.449
the door a little bit and had to move some things

00:03:21.449 --> 00:03:25.139
out. I had kind of a... gear pack that I had

00:03:25.139 --> 00:03:27.419
on my swing out door that I had to remove because

00:03:27.419 --> 00:03:30.860
it was just not gonna close the door wasn't if

00:03:30.860 --> 00:03:33.659
I had it there so move that out kind of took

00:03:33.659 --> 00:03:35.759
a inventory of what I had in there and what I

00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:40.020
honestly needed and removed everything else so

00:03:40.020 --> 00:03:44.900
made some space there then started working on

00:03:44.900 --> 00:03:48.400
I acquired some drawers from work some they were

00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:52.919
actually bolt drawers and they were getting rid

00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:56.919
of those, so I figured I could use those. You

00:03:56.919 --> 00:03:58.819
don't happen to have any more of those, do you?

00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:03.599
Not that type. That was a special type. Those

00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:08.300
things are sick. Yeah, yeah, that was the one

00:04:08.300 --> 00:04:13.039
I wanted. That originally held springs for the

00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:15.860
hardware, and that was the only one like it that

00:04:15.860 --> 00:04:19.579
was fully like that plastic encasement like that.

00:04:20.300 --> 00:04:22.379
And I had my eye on it for a while. All I had

00:04:22.379 --> 00:04:24.480
to do was find a place to put the springs in

00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:30.480
the new drawer setup. Finally, I was able to

00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:34.139
make it work. I took that bitch home. You had

00:04:34.139 --> 00:04:36.300
some trouble kind of fitting it in because, of

00:04:36.300 --> 00:04:39.759
course, where I had my shelves at, it was going

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:43.420
to be a weird fit, but it made it work. I moved

00:04:43.420 --> 00:04:47.199
my shelves up. Those little boxes that are on

00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:49.420
those drawers on that drawer system, those pull

00:04:49.420 --> 00:04:52.399
out, don't they? Like come down? Yeah. Oh, my

00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:54.860
God. I love it. That's such a cool setup, dude.

00:04:55.819 --> 00:04:57.839
Well, you come down. Oh, do you mean like slide

00:04:57.839 --> 00:05:00.220
out and then kind of go down a little? Like can't

00:05:00.220 --> 00:05:02.360
you slide them out and then take them off and

00:05:02.360 --> 00:05:06.079
open the box like down lower? Yeah, I can take

00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:07.899
the whole box out of the drawer. Yeah, fuck yeah.

00:05:08.699 --> 00:05:12.120
Yeah. So that was cool. Like I said, I had to

00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:16.009
move my. uh the wood shelf that I had sitting

00:05:16.009 --> 00:05:19.009
there actually cut some angles into it so it

00:05:19.009 --> 00:05:21.829
fit into the sides and mounted right up to the

00:05:21.829 --> 00:05:24.329
back seat before there was a gap and I was uh

00:05:24.329 --> 00:05:27.850
I would store my tent or something back there

00:05:27.850 --> 00:05:29.569
and then it would always fall between the gap

00:05:29.569 --> 00:05:31.550
behind the fridge and then I couldn't close the

00:05:31.550 --> 00:05:36.990
fridge so I uh I buttoned that up got that set

00:05:36.990 --> 00:05:39.410
up like I said got my drawers in there started

00:05:39.410 --> 00:05:42.250
organizing and taking everything I had from the

00:05:42.250 --> 00:05:46.720
house All the coffee stuff, the diningware, all

00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:49.160
the batteries and stuff that I kept in the house.

00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:52.959
The pumps, the tents, stuff like that. Trying

00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:56.620
to start fitting it in everywhere. Got everything

00:05:56.620 --> 00:06:01.500
pretty well organized. Made some green tape labels

00:06:01.500 --> 00:06:04.740
to try to keep things, like I said, set and organized.

00:06:06.379 --> 00:06:11.720
And then, in Christmas time, my mother -in -law

00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:15.990
bought me... The Dometic water jug. She just

00:06:15.990 --> 00:06:17.850
kind of grabbed something off of my Amazon wish

00:06:17.850 --> 00:06:20.709
list, which, honestly, can't complain. Those

00:06:20.709 --> 00:06:22.350
are always the best gifts when they actually

00:06:22.350 --> 00:06:24.930
go and look at what you have in there and just

00:06:24.930 --> 00:06:27.649
pick something. It's perfect. That's how we do

00:06:27.649 --> 00:06:29.709
Christmas in our family. We just all share our

00:06:29.709 --> 00:06:33.970
Amazon lists. Might be a little harder this year

00:06:33.970 --> 00:06:37.250
because everything else is like $50 and up now.

00:06:38.939 --> 00:06:41.720
It was very nice of her. So, uh, so I've been

00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:43.939
holding onto that for a while and waiting and

00:06:43.939 --> 00:06:48.220
waiting. I was going to get one of the, um, off

00:06:48.220 --> 00:06:52.800
brand spouts, um, from, uh, from like a Amazon

00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:55.740
thing. And honestly, I just had a little bit

00:06:55.740 --> 00:06:58.339
of extra money for it and was like, screw it.

00:06:58.379 --> 00:07:02.459
I, I want the, uh, I want the, the one that goes

00:07:02.459 --> 00:07:07.000
with it. And so I got the, um, the Domatic faucet.

00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:12.860
which was great. So the way that I have it, I

00:07:12.860 --> 00:07:14.819
have it right behind my seat and then the hose

00:07:14.819 --> 00:07:18.959
running up on top of my shelf. And then I have

00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:23.100
the faucet sitting on the shelf. And so can't

00:07:23.100 --> 00:07:25.079
even see my water tank or anything there. It's

00:07:25.079 --> 00:07:28.899
a two and a half gallon tank. When I want to

00:07:28.899 --> 00:07:31.500
switch it out, it's got a quick release on the

00:07:31.500 --> 00:07:35.240
top and I could just pull the tank out when I

00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:37.500
need to fill it up. But otherwise, it's going

00:07:37.500 --> 00:07:39.980
to sit back there. Any kind of filling and stuff

00:07:39.980 --> 00:07:43.279
that I need to do with water for my pots or dishes.

00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:48.360
How much is the Domatic pump? That one's 99.

00:07:49.180 --> 00:07:55.740
How does it connect to the tank? There is a nipple

00:07:55.740 --> 00:08:00.319
that has like a quick release. That quick release

00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:02.220
is into the tank. It's kind of similar to like

00:08:02.220 --> 00:08:08.490
an air truck quick release. And does it have

00:08:08.490 --> 00:08:11.250
like clear plastic tubing going down to the tank

00:08:11.250 --> 00:08:17.089
then? Yeah. So the actual cap, so it comes with

00:08:17.089 --> 00:08:19.970
two caps. One's if you were to use the tank as

00:08:19.970 --> 00:08:23.949
like a regular like valved cap. It's got one

00:08:23.949 --> 00:08:26.189
that just dispenses water. So if you were to

00:08:26.189 --> 00:08:29.459
use it like horizontally. And then the other

00:08:29.459 --> 00:08:32.759
one is the cap that runs a hose to the bottom

00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:36.320
of the tank with a little like pickup on the

00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:41.759
bottom of it. So then does the Dometic faucet

00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:44.240
have a pump in it that just pulls the water out

00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:48.299
then? Yeah. So the faucet is the pump part of

00:08:48.299 --> 00:08:51.220
that. So you just hook the, there's a little

00:08:51.220 --> 00:08:53.980
nipple on the back of the faucet. Super easy

00:08:53.980 --> 00:08:57.139
to pull off and put back on. It's just a nipple.

00:08:57.629 --> 00:09:00.169
I bet you I can make that work with my packout

00:09:00.169 --> 00:09:04.129
water storage. Yeah, you could. Yeah. It's just

00:09:04.129 --> 00:09:10.250
a pump. Honestly, if any of those off -brand

00:09:10.250 --> 00:09:15.649
Amazon spouts, if they have a, as long as they

00:09:15.649 --> 00:09:19.429
have the pump in the faucet and they have a nipple

00:09:19.429 --> 00:09:21.370
in the back where you can connect a hose, any

00:09:21.370 --> 00:09:23.230
one of those would probably work. Now in hindsight

00:09:23.230 --> 00:09:26.700
that I've actually used it and everything. Yeah,

00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:32.159
but the Dometic one looks so nice. It is actually

00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:35.320
really nice. It just double tap on the light

00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.240
and it'll dispense. And I think it's got a one

00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:42.460
liter cutoff so that if it accidentally gets

00:09:42.460 --> 00:09:44.559
touched or you're not paying attention, it'll

00:09:44.559 --> 00:09:48.360
automatically cut off at a liter. So that's kind

00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:51.039
of nice. It's got a magnetic base and then it

00:09:51.039 --> 00:09:56.019
comes with. uh a round magnetic base and a square

00:09:56.019 --> 00:09:59.779
magnetic base that you can actually mount so

00:09:59.779 --> 00:10:04.039
i have that mounted on the actual um uh the shelf

00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:08.159
that i made yeah um i did not realize i needed

00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:12.000
to vent my uh my tank though so when i i took

00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:13.779
the video and shared it to you guys it was kind

00:10:13.779 --> 00:10:15.899
of sputtering a little bit and i was like man

00:10:15.899 --> 00:10:17.940
this can't be the fastest this thing goes it's

00:10:17.940 --> 00:10:20.679
kind of slow for what the price And then I opened

00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:23.559
the valve, and it was like, and then it started

00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:25.399
really putting out some water. I was like, thank

00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:27.879
God, because I was going to start regretting

00:10:27.879 --> 00:10:30.620
that a little bit. So it was really cool, and

00:10:30.620 --> 00:10:33.399
the best thing is it's like USB -C, so I just

00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.399
throw it in my cup holder in the truck and plug

00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:42.480
it in, and we're good to go. So I'm pretty excited

00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:47.860
about that. And my thing is that when we had

00:10:47.860 --> 00:10:52.700
water, it was, four gallons and they were in

00:10:52.700 --> 00:10:55.740
the plastic jugs i've had six of those fucking

00:10:55.740 --> 00:10:58.740
jugs while we were camping last year break just

00:10:58.740 --> 00:11:01.000
from throwing them around from hitting whoopies

00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:04.240
on the trail on accident having them land because

00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:05.799
they weren't you know secured because i didn't

00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:09.039
have anywhere to secure them really so we still

00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:12.419
have our two original uh tanks that we bought

00:11:12.419 --> 00:11:16.259
for our overland trip yeah i i have i had one

00:11:16.259 --> 00:11:19.039
of those blue ones from walmart the ones with

00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:21.139
a little spout, and that broke, like, my first

00:11:21.139 --> 00:11:25.179
week after hitting a whoop. And I don't remember

00:11:25.179 --> 00:11:27.360
even what it hit, but it hit something and cracked

00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:29.519
and just leaked all through the back, and I was

00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:32.240
like, eh, this is great. Gavin's way harder on

00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:35.639
his stuff than we are. I just don't see these

00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:38.559
little jumps or something. I don't know. But,

00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:40.919
hey, it launched everything out of my back, so

00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:43.970
that was fun. Jesus. But that's the thing is

00:11:43.970 --> 00:11:46.070
I wanted it to be, I didn't want to have to log

00:11:46.070 --> 00:11:49.690
out those every time I wanted to use them. What

00:11:49.690 --> 00:11:52.370
I will be doing is I'm going to buy some extension

00:11:52.370 --> 00:11:56.250
for the hose because it's only about, I would

00:11:56.250 --> 00:11:58.210
say probably about two feet of hose, which by

00:11:58.210 --> 00:12:00.070
the time I run it up to where it's at, that's

00:12:00.070 --> 00:12:03.929
the exact limit. Right. So I want to do an extension.

00:12:03.990 --> 00:12:07.169
I'll just grab a nipple from the store, you know,

00:12:07.169 --> 00:12:09.009
and run an extension of the hose so that I can

00:12:09.009 --> 00:12:13.679
run it to my fold down table. Which brings me

00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:17.019
to my next project that I had finished as I optimized

00:12:17.019 --> 00:12:20.379
my fold -down table. I did have like a really

00:12:20.379 --> 00:12:27.440
cheap, I think it was like a cabinet hinge. It

00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:30.080
was not meant for that type of table or anything

00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:33.480
that I had screwed in there. And I had the rope,

00:12:33.539 --> 00:12:37.240
like the paracord suspenders to help kind of

00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:40.799
keep the table sitting. So I went to the hardware

00:12:40.799 --> 00:12:43.639
store, grabbed some heavier -duty hinges because

00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:47.559
I did notice last summer that I did have a little

00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:51.379
bit of twist and stuff with my table. It wasn't

00:12:51.379 --> 00:12:53.360
the most secure. It worked. I didn't have any

00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:57.360
real issues with it, but I wanted to clean it

00:12:57.360 --> 00:12:59.340
up, make it look a little better. So I grabbed

00:12:59.340 --> 00:13:03.139
some nicer -looking black chain, grabbed a couple

00:13:03.139 --> 00:13:05.740
feet of that, used that instead of the paracord.

00:13:06.409 --> 00:13:09.389
And then I used some heavier duty hinges so that

00:13:09.389 --> 00:13:11.809
I wouldn't have so much twist. And that kind

00:13:11.809 --> 00:13:13.649
of cleaned it all up, made it look really nice.

00:13:14.110 --> 00:13:17.110
The amount of stuff that you can do with some

00:13:17.110 --> 00:13:22.110
lumber and a bungee cord always amazes me. Yeah.

00:13:22.330 --> 00:13:27.070
You are like the epitome of a bungee cord overlander.

00:13:27.070 --> 00:13:29.509
That's what I'm going to coin it. I coined it.

00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:34.779
I had to do what I had to do. I've never seen

00:13:34.779 --> 00:13:37.399
someone with so many bungee cords in their SUV,

00:13:37.659 --> 00:13:39.940
dude. Like, there's so many bungee cords. Yeah,

00:13:40.019 --> 00:13:42.840
I have a few. I always wanted to keep a few of

00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:46.019
them just to kind of keep around just in case

00:13:46.019 --> 00:13:49.059
I needed them. And I used them a lot. Like, the

00:13:49.059 --> 00:13:51.860
bungee cords, I would strap down on the bottom

00:13:51.860 --> 00:13:57.500
of my table to actually, like, keep toilet paper

00:13:57.500 --> 00:14:01.120
on. Which worked great because then I just hang

00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:04.139
the toilet paper through the bungee cord in the

00:14:04.139 --> 00:14:07.500
shit tent or whatever. And then the same thing

00:14:07.500 --> 00:14:09.139
with toilet paper, and it kind of gave it the

00:14:09.139 --> 00:14:12.179
right retention. It didn't just spin crazy all

00:14:12.179 --> 00:14:16.259
the time. I sent a picture into our group chat

00:14:16.259 --> 00:14:20.919
here. You can kind of see where the water jug

00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:23.419
sits all the way there against the back seat

00:14:23.419 --> 00:14:27.409
and how it's kind of plumbed up. through the

00:14:27.409 --> 00:14:32.629
shelf up top but the uh it was pretty cool i

00:14:32.629 --> 00:14:35.509
uh so that was kind of my main thing there so

00:14:35.509 --> 00:14:40.149
the fridge sits in there good now uh the you

00:14:40.149 --> 00:14:43.730
know the hose everything works and yeah and then

00:14:43.730 --> 00:14:46.610
today i got some labels in took those green tapes

00:14:46.610 --> 00:14:49.610
off and cleaned it up and actually put some labels

00:14:49.610 --> 00:14:53.980
on there so No more jumping spices. I got all

00:14:53.980 --> 00:14:56.919
my fire stuff in there. It's all cleaned up,

00:14:57.000 --> 00:14:59.940
ready for the year, and I guess to kind of see

00:14:59.940 --> 00:15:03.799
what I can do to make it better, I guess, as

00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:07.940
I go. Oh, and I also, for my weekend update,

00:15:08.179 --> 00:15:12.960
my Friday, my battery started dying, and I had

00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:15.379
to make a last -minute purchase and got me an

00:15:15.379 --> 00:15:19.659
Optima red top and threw that in the truck too.

00:15:20.889 --> 00:15:25.570
I think that kind of concludes my updates. It

00:15:25.570 --> 00:15:29.549
was a big weekend, lots of optimizing. You also

00:15:29.549 --> 00:15:34.129
didn't come to our camping work weekend. I did

00:15:34.129 --> 00:15:40.809
not, no. I think, I'm trying to remember. No,

00:15:40.809 --> 00:15:43.389
Friday I was still kind of feeling it on my ribs,

00:15:43.490 --> 00:15:49.110
still kind of having a hard time sleeping. So

00:15:49.110 --> 00:15:51.470
I've been still kind of spot sleeping until the

00:15:51.470 --> 00:15:55.029
last, about two days ago, still kind of spot

00:15:55.029 --> 00:15:57.269
sleeping either on my side or on the, on the

00:15:57.269 --> 00:16:00.009
couch, whatever I could usually get into bed

00:16:00.009 --> 00:16:04.509
at like four ish. So yeah, it wasn't, it wasn't

00:16:04.509 --> 00:16:06.210
a, I think I even told you about that when I

00:16:06.210 --> 00:16:09.490
saw you Friday or whatever Saturday. Yeah. Or,

00:16:09.590 --> 00:16:13.529
uh, but, uh, it just wasn't in my, uh, wasn't

00:16:13.529 --> 00:16:16.429
in my wants to go sleep on my, my air mat or

00:16:16.429 --> 00:16:20.049
anything uncomfortable. because nothing's really

00:16:20.049 --> 00:16:22.570
as comfortable as your bed. I'd say maybe except

00:16:22.570 --> 00:16:27.210
a hammock. But, yeah, I took that time while

00:16:27.210 --> 00:16:29.929
I was home to get that stuff done and see, and

00:16:29.929 --> 00:16:33.169
I watched the kid while I did it. So got a lot

00:16:33.169 --> 00:16:38.090
done there. If there's some decent weather the

00:16:38.090 --> 00:16:41.230
weekend after this, on my next weekend off, I'm

00:16:41.230 --> 00:16:44.389
probably going to try and do the roof rack. The

00:16:44.389 --> 00:16:48.340
weekend after this is... Oh, no, it's not third

00:16:48.340 --> 00:16:50.019
gen camping weekend. No, we got one more weekend.

00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:55.240
We got one more weekend. So, yeah, our weekend

00:16:55.240 --> 00:17:00.740
went very well. Friday, I dropped the axle off

00:17:00.740 --> 00:17:05.319
the Jeep and got it ready to go underneath the

00:17:05.319 --> 00:17:12.359
trailer. I had to go get some new U -bolts because

00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:18.039
I broke those. So we got the, and then we had

00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:20.980
to get spring perches because for whatever reason,

00:17:21.019 --> 00:17:27.799
I just assumed it was the same width. So we got

00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:30.019
the new spring perches welded on the axle, got

00:17:30.019 --> 00:17:33.279
the axle mounted to the trailer upside down.

00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:37.359
That's a whole other story, but it's okay. We're

00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:39.960
going to actually cut the axle shafts off and

00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:43.160
make them just longer than the wheel bearing

00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:46.529
of the axle. so that way eventually we can cut

00:17:46.529 --> 00:17:52.730
the diff right out of there. And so we got all

00:17:52.730 --> 00:17:55.650
that mounted up, got everything nice and tight,

00:17:55.730 --> 00:17:59.390
and then hooked the trailer to the 4Runner and

00:17:59.390 --> 00:18:02.150
did some testing to see if the 4Runner can pull

00:18:02.150 --> 00:18:06.450
the trailer. And the 4Runner can definitely pull

00:18:06.450 --> 00:18:09.490
the trailer, so we're going to be okay. Yep.

00:18:09.769 --> 00:18:13.309
I need to wire up some plugs for plugging in

00:18:13.309 --> 00:18:16.369
lights. I need to do a little bit of work on

00:18:16.369 --> 00:18:21.089
trailer lights because our cord was bad. But

00:18:21.089 --> 00:18:24.009
we got it all. We just got to do it this weekend.

00:18:24.269 --> 00:18:27.569
But the trailer, it's really close to being done.

00:18:28.170 --> 00:18:30.950
Yeah. At this point, it's mostly just getting

00:18:30.950 --> 00:18:36.210
gear on it. Heck yeah, man. And then it was a

00:18:36.210 --> 00:18:40.250
camping work weekend, so we all camped out here

00:18:40.250 --> 00:18:44.299
at the house. Yep. We're doing that again this

00:18:44.299 --> 00:18:48.839
coming weekend. When we camp here, we get so

00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:51.740
much stuff done because there's no driving to

00:18:51.740 --> 00:18:53.680
people's houses or anything. We just wake up

00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:57.460
and work. And wait for us to wake up from Claire's

00:18:57.460 --> 00:19:01.359
30 minutes before driving over. Right, right.

00:19:02.259 --> 00:19:07.779
Alex has got Mark on the sweatshop list. Yeah.

00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:11.059
Wake up. Time to work. Dude, come here, Ling

00:19:11.059 --> 00:19:14.539
Ling. Their Saturdays, if they go home that weekend,

00:19:14.579 --> 00:19:17.000
I'll call them at like 1 in the afternoon and

00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:19.900
be like, so are you guys out of bed yet? And

00:19:19.900 --> 00:19:23.059
Mark will be like, oh, we're starting to move.

00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:30.019
At like 1 in the afternoon. Yeah. It's a really

00:19:30.019 --> 00:19:32.279
nice bed at home. It's quite hard to get out

00:19:32.279 --> 00:19:36.259
of half the time. I don't blame you. I don't

00:19:36.259 --> 00:19:40.880
either. The kid gets me up at like 6, 630. which

00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:43.240
is fine because I'm already up, but so is he.

00:19:43.660 --> 00:19:46.500
And he wakes out of a dead sleep and just starts

00:19:46.500 --> 00:19:52.299
cannonballing his mother, who does not like getting

00:19:52.299 --> 00:19:55.640
up that early, who would sleep until 11 or 12

00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:58.819
if she could. So you could imagine how pleasant

00:19:58.819 --> 00:20:01.200
she is to be around when he's cannonballing her

00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:06.039
or sitting on her face with his pee diaper. Yeah.

00:20:07.339 --> 00:20:09.960
Dude, pee diapers are... No, poop diapers are

00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:12.119
the worst, but pee diapers, man, they just don't

00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:14.619
even care about them. So they'll, like, sit on

00:20:14.619 --> 00:20:18.319
you when a little pee squooshes out. Ugh. Oh,

00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:21.259
man. Wait, okay, let me ask this first before

00:20:21.259 --> 00:20:24.980
you guys go. Is that all you guys did for your

00:20:24.980 --> 00:20:28.559
weekend update? Do you have any more? We got

00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:31.640
my project I worked on. Oh, yeah, Mark. What'd

00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:35.710
you do? I... Been a mod I wanted to do with the

00:20:35.710 --> 00:20:37.910
last Tacoma, so it's been sitting on the back

00:20:37.910 --> 00:20:41.589
burner for quite a while for a mod. I got a MOLLE

00:20:41.589 --> 00:20:46.890
panel back behind my rear seat. And Alex donated

00:20:46.890 --> 00:20:50.329
a bunch of military MOLLE bags he's not really

00:20:50.329 --> 00:20:56.289
using. I think my favorite bag out of it is the

00:20:56.289 --> 00:20:58.470
little hand grenade one that I turned to tackle.

00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:03.279
electrical tape pouch. Yeah, I give Mark these

00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:05.259
little grenade pouches and he's like, I don't

00:21:05.259 --> 00:21:08.619
even know what I would use these for. And I'm

00:21:08.619 --> 00:21:10.079
like, well, whatever. They're there if you come

00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:12.400
up with something. And he goes, no, I don't want

00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:13.920
them. Hands them back to me and I'm like, all

00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:16.460
right, cool. And he's like, wait, electrical

00:21:16.460 --> 00:21:23.960
tape. There you go. Zins. Pop all the zins in

00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:25.839
there. I told him to do that too. He said it's

00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:30.119
too big for that. Now you got to do a stack of

00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:34.720
them. No, my tins are too big for that pouch.

00:21:34.799 --> 00:21:39.420
It's that small. Oh. Yeah. There's, like, such

00:21:39.420 --> 00:21:41.299
a weird one. Like, I don't know what I would

00:21:41.299 --> 00:21:45.180
put in this. Yeah, the size of a hand grenade.

00:21:45.460 --> 00:21:48.500
Oh, you know what? Do they have zippers? No.

00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:51.599
No. They're Velcro or snap. It would be really

00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:54.400
nice to get, like, hand soap in one of those.

00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:58.690
That would, uh. It'd be nice to have a hanging

00:21:58.690 --> 00:22:03.309
hand soap dispenser because I have that stuff

00:22:03.309 --> 00:22:05.750
banging around in my drawers or something. And

00:22:05.750 --> 00:22:07.809
every once in a while, you'll get it squirting

00:22:07.809 --> 00:22:09.650
out of there and you'll just like see the bottom

00:22:09.650 --> 00:22:14.849
of my drawers just like soapy goop. The worst.

00:22:15.230 --> 00:22:17.990
His molly panels are really sick. He took the

00:22:17.990 --> 00:22:22.950
plastic out of that truck last fall. No, last

00:22:22.950 --> 00:22:27.680
summer. Yeah. So it's been loud when you're driving

00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:32.160
it. So we sound deadened it before we put the

00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:35.380
panels on. And that thing is so freaking quiet

00:22:35.380 --> 00:22:44.400
now. Oh, yeah. I bet. Yeah. Before I do the,

00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:48.539
we'll talk about the big bot I'm doing to my

00:22:48.539 --> 00:22:51.680
truck here this year later. But before I do that,

00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:55.529
I plan on sound deadening everything. I don't,

00:22:55.529 --> 00:23:00.210
every panel. Thankfully, I don't really have

00:23:00.210 --> 00:23:04.369
that problem yet, but someday I'm sure. I've

00:23:04.369 --> 00:23:06.450
seen some people complain about it, but I don't

00:23:06.450 --> 00:23:09.069
really have a lot of road noise or anything with

00:23:09.069 --> 00:23:12.329
mine, so. You really don't? Maybe if I run 35s

00:23:12.329 --> 00:23:15.549
and muds. You don't notice it too much until

00:23:15.549 --> 00:23:17.990
you're in a truck that is sound deadened, and

00:23:17.990 --> 00:23:23.079
then it ruins for you forever. Oh, I mean, Sienna's

00:23:23.079 --> 00:23:27.279
little CR -V is pretty well sound deadened comparably.

00:23:27.500 --> 00:23:33.940
No. Well, it is. It's basically silent inside

00:23:33.940 --> 00:23:36.079
of it while you're driving, and it's almost eerie.

00:23:36.539 --> 00:23:40.400
Have you seen what Casey's doing with his Bronco?

00:23:42.299 --> 00:23:44.900
Yeah, yeah. That's what I'm going to be doing

00:23:44.900 --> 00:23:47.359
with the 4Runner. There's no production car that

00:23:47.359 --> 00:23:50.670
goes to that extent. No, but like I said, it's

00:23:50.670 --> 00:23:54.609
a little four -banger, six -banger that she's

00:23:54.609 --> 00:23:56.670
got in there. You can't hear nothing anyway with

00:23:56.670 --> 00:24:00.549
the exhaust. It's pretty quiet. I'm going to

00:24:00.549 --> 00:24:02.710
rip my dash out and do sound deadening up the

00:24:02.710 --> 00:24:10.430
firewall. I'm doing the full nine yards. He's

00:24:10.430 --> 00:24:13.009
got to deaden the sound when he's pulling that

00:24:13.009 --> 00:24:16.230
trailer fully loaded. His engine's going to be

00:24:16.230 --> 00:24:21.539
like... Then I'm going to do some new vinyl flooring,

00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:24.259
some new front seats, pretty much redo my interior.

00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:29.500
Mm -hmm. God, I'm so happy that the previous

00:24:29.500 --> 00:24:32.440
owner had seat covers on his interior from day

00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:36.339
one. God, that was so nice. When I took those

00:24:36.339 --> 00:24:39.700
seat covers off, they were brand new, like not

00:24:39.700 --> 00:24:44.400
even nothing. Not a wear spot, nothing. My leather

00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:46.960
was destroyed when I bought it, and it's only

00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:50.589
gotten worse. Yes. Yeah. I'm the one destroying

00:24:50.589 --> 00:24:52.210
their seats. I took the seat covers off because

00:24:52.210 --> 00:24:54.490
I'm like, these things are God ugly. They were

00:24:54.490 --> 00:24:57.990
like an off maroon. He got them to try to match

00:24:57.990 --> 00:25:00.369
the color of the truck, but it was not matching.

00:25:00.670 --> 00:25:04.549
Oh. So it was like a fake leather and on the

00:25:04.549 --> 00:25:07.569
sides of the seats it was like a cloth. And I

00:25:07.569 --> 00:25:10.009
was like, these are God ugly. Took them off and

00:25:10.009 --> 00:25:11.990
I was like, oh my God, these are brand new seats

00:25:11.990 --> 00:25:14.990
under here. Why would you cover them? But I guess

00:25:14.990 --> 00:25:18.039
he had a reason because I bought it. two years

00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:21.579
ago or so, three years ago now. And when I bought

00:25:21.579 --> 00:25:24.740
it from an 07, they were brand new seats. So

00:25:24.740 --> 00:25:28.779
I support his decision. I think I'm going to

00:25:28.779 --> 00:25:34.460
do some of the Corbeau sport seats or something

00:25:34.460 --> 00:25:38.839
like that. They're basically a really decent

00:25:38.839 --> 00:25:44.359
off -road styled bucket seat pretty much. But

00:25:44.359 --> 00:25:46.200
they're not like a racing seat. So you don't

00:25:46.200 --> 00:25:48.160
like have brackets on the side of you or anything.

00:25:50.180 --> 00:25:53.740
But they're comfortable for. Right. Long distance.

00:25:53.779 --> 00:25:56.460
They're big. They're squishy. They're vinyl.

00:25:56.579 --> 00:25:58.319
So they're not. Well, they're like that fake

00:25:58.319 --> 00:26:00.779
leather vinyl thing. So they're not going to

00:26:00.779 --> 00:26:03.059
dry out and crack the way that real leather does.

00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:07.359
Yeah. That was my thing is like, I remember you

00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:08.740
talking about switching out your seats and I

00:26:08.740 --> 00:26:10.279
was kind of worried for a second you were going

00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:12.980
to go to like full race seats or something. And

00:26:12.980 --> 00:26:14.799
I was like, man. That's not going to be comfortable.

00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:19.079
No. Those would probably be pretty nice. There

00:26:19.079 --> 00:26:24.119
are some race seats I've looked at. The big thing

00:26:24.119 --> 00:26:26.319
to me is I don't mind if it hugs me up here.

00:26:26.799 --> 00:26:30.799
I don't want it to hug me on my butt. I want

00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:33.500
the bottom to kind of... No, I want to be able

00:26:33.500 --> 00:26:36.079
to move around in my seat because I'm ADHD and

00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:38.759
have to move. I don't know. You seem like a butt

00:26:38.759 --> 00:26:42.079
hugger to me. Dude, I love to hug some butts,

00:26:42.180 --> 00:26:45.410
but... Yeah, yeah. Don't like it when they hug

00:26:45.410 --> 00:26:49.750
you, I see. Yeah. No, butts, I don't know, but

00:26:49.750 --> 00:26:52.470
I like when butts hug me too. Depends on what

00:26:52.470 --> 00:26:57.109
manner. I guess I, I guess I like having the

00:26:57.109 --> 00:27:00.910
open seat too, because the, I just, I would think

00:27:00.910 --> 00:27:03.630
I would feel claustrophobic at this point. I

00:27:03.630 --> 00:27:05.829
just like, I like a little bit of bolstering

00:27:05.829 --> 00:27:07.849
to kind of hold me in place as I'm doing shit,

00:27:07.930 --> 00:27:12.299
but I don't want to be like. Like, I built a

00:27:12.299 --> 00:27:14.319
race truck that had full -on race seats, and

00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:18.440
you cannot move. I'm not looking for that. No.

00:27:18.460 --> 00:27:20.380
Yeah. Well, you want to be able to turn around

00:27:20.380 --> 00:27:23.579
and look out your window and stuff. I'm sure

00:27:23.579 --> 00:27:25.700
Caitlin wouldn't be happy about race seats either.

00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:31.799
No, she turned them down. You got to think of

00:27:31.799 --> 00:27:34.619
the family. It would really make off -roading

00:27:34.619 --> 00:27:36.740
a lot less comfortable, and I'm not looking to

00:27:36.740 --> 00:27:42.640
do that. No. No, I couldn't even. It'd make it

00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:45.000
too uncomfortable for me. Anything less cushy

00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:48.440
than what I got right now, which isn't the comfiest

00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:51.400
seats ever, but couldn't do anything a little

00:27:51.400 --> 00:27:54.339
harder than that for long hours of driving. Hell

00:27:54.339 --> 00:27:56.920
no. I should probably message that lady that's

00:27:56.920 --> 00:28:01.519
got the Bronco seats for sale. They're actually...

00:28:01.930 --> 00:28:04.430
So there's this lady in, I think, Allendale.

00:28:04.670 --> 00:28:07.970
She's got the Corbeau seats I want, and they're

00:28:07.970 --> 00:28:10.309
on Bronco brackets. She took them out of a Bronco.

00:28:10.369 --> 00:28:13.970
So she has them listed for $100 as Bronco seats,

00:28:14.190 --> 00:28:18.990
but they're $800 on Corbeau's website. Okay,

00:28:18.990 --> 00:28:24.089
you might want to snatch those up. Yeah. Okay,

00:28:24.450 --> 00:28:27.650
can I file a complaint? Which one? This is off

00:28:27.650 --> 00:28:32.259
topic, but it's a complaint. I want to file it

00:28:32.259 --> 00:28:37.940
with Hormel Chili. They have the little chili

00:28:37.940 --> 00:28:41.059
in the can that you can buy at Walmart and stuff

00:28:41.059 --> 00:28:42.599
like that. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cheap chili

00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:45.619
in a can. I'd like to file a formal complaint

00:28:45.619 --> 00:28:49.519
with them for making me piss out of my ass and

00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:55.559
piss out of my mouth for the last 24 hours. Zero

00:28:55.559 --> 00:29:01.460
out of 10, would not recommend. I got those for

00:29:01.460 --> 00:29:04.160
the exact case that I wanted to try them out

00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:09.000
as a quick meal for camping. And they got an

00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:15.400
F. They got an F minus. I shit you not. No pun

00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:20.859
intended. What was it? What's today? Wednesday?

00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:25.440
Yes. Yeah, so I made it Monday night and used

00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:30.789
that and made some hot dogs and stuff. I guess

00:29:30.789 --> 00:29:34.730
I had the most of it, but ate the chili. Boy,

00:29:35.109 --> 00:29:38.930
did I. Dude, 4 a .m., all of a sudden, it hit

00:29:38.930 --> 00:29:42.630
me. And I'm like, oh, God. And stomach started

00:29:42.630 --> 00:29:46.369
hurting. Ran right to the bathroom, and it was

00:29:46.369 --> 00:29:49.869
just every 20 minutes peeing out of my butt.

00:29:50.250 --> 00:29:53.670
And I'm like, I hate my life. I was praying to

00:29:53.670 --> 00:29:57.710
gods I don't pray to. I was. doing all sorts

00:29:57.710 --> 00:30:00.789
of stuff. Finally, like I texted my bosses at

00:30:00.789 --> 00:30:04.589
six 30 or 40 and I'm like, Hey, I will be a little

00:30:04.589 --> 00:30:07.549
late. Um, I'm kind of dealing with a situation

00:30:07.549 --> 00:30:11.390
here that I can't really be at work for. And,

00:30:11.509 --> 00:30:14.829
uh, and I kind of explained it a little bit more.

00:30:15.490 --> 00:30:17.549
Um, and they're like, how about you just stay

00:30:17.549 --> 00:30:19.829
home? We don't want that here. And I'm like,

00:30:19.869 --> 00:30:22.549
well, I didn't, I didn't include the, Hey, I

00:30:22.549 --> 00:30:25.150
know exactly who the cause is, but they, they

00:30:25.150 --> 00:30:27.549
didn't really want to hear it anyway. So last

00:30:27.549 --> 00:30:29.710
time I came to work sick, I got people infected.

00:30:29.970 --> 00:30:35.349
So yeah, yeah, no, that, that, uh, that longer

00:30:35.349 --> 00:30:38.710
thing that I had going on, I, apparently I got

00:30:38.710 --> 00:30:41.410
a couple other people sick too. Jesus recovered

00:30:41.410 --> 00:30:45.440
much faster than I did. So I think my, uh, My

00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:49.119
immunity has been screwed up ever since I had

00:30:49.119 --> 00:30:52.900
my kids. But, yeah, do not recommend Hormel's

00:30:52.900 --> 00:30:56.759
Chili. This is the first day I've been able to

00:30:56.759 --> 00:30:59.859
eat and been able to have normal bowel movements.

00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:03.299
I will not be taking those to camp because if

00:31:03.299 --> 00:31:06.079
that happened during camp, I'd be going home

00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:10.799
straight up. That would be the end of my trip.

00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:16.680
Alex would be hearing me in my camp tent just

00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:22.160
pooping every 30 seconds, crying. Who needs his

00:31:22.160 --> 00:31:24.579
diapers again? Gavin does. Oh, dude. Are you

00:31:24.579 --> 00:31:27.240
sure it's his kids? No, it's for him. Nope, I

00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:31.079
needed them. Guys, I was joking about it because,

00:31:31.160 --> 00:31:33.539
yeah, I might have had a little accident on the

00:31:33.539 --> 00:31:36.099
way. And I was like, I can't believe this. I'm

00:31:36.099 --> 00:31:39.799
29. Well, I'm 30 years old now. Shit. And I'm

00:31:39.799 --> 00:31:43.009
having accidents on the way. That's embarrassing.

00:31:44.289 --> 00:31:46.609
Like I told CN, I said, I might need some adult

00:31:46.609 --> 00:31:50.190
diapers and one of those cooling menthol maxi

00:31:50.190 --> 00:31:54.250
pads to put on my ass because they got to a point

00:31:54.250 --> 00:31:57.069
where I was just shitting out stomach acid. And

00:31:57.069 --> 00:32:00.269
I'm like, dude, I'm over this. All right. Well,

00:32:00.349 --> 00:32:02.630
let's get off the poop talk. That's enough of

00:32:02.630 --> 00:32:05.430
that. Why? You don't like that? So I sent a link

00:32:05.430 --> 00:32:08.730
to those seats in the podcast chat if you want

00:32:08.730 --> 00:32:11.569
to take a look at them. They're a little damaged,

00:32:11.750 --> 00:32:14.390
but they're way better than what I'm on right

00:32:14.390 --> 00:32:23.630
now, so I'll deal with it. Yeah. Oh. Is that

00:32:23.630 --> 00:32:25.589
my? Oh, they're white. I don't know about damage.

00:32:25.650 --> 00:32:27.549
It might be because I've had them boxes in it.

00:32:27.890 --> 00:32:31.910
They're tan. Tan, I guess? Same color as what's

00:32:31.910 --> 00:32:39.289
in my truck right now. It doesn't look really

00:32:39.289 --> 00:32:40.849
damaged. Like I said, I think it might have been

00:32:40.849 --> 00:32:42.890
just weight. It just looks damaged in there because

00:32:42.890 --> 00:32:49.490
it's still forming again. But I did reach out

00:32:49.490 --> 00:32:52.190
to Corbeau to find out if they do, like, if I

00:32:52.190 --> 00:32:55.690
can buy pieces to rebuild them. And they will

00:32:55.690 --> 00:33:00.809
sell me a new bottom foam and cover. So even

00:33:00.809 --> 00:33:02.789
if it is damaged, I can make them look brand

00:33:02.789 --> 00:33:08.059
new for pretty cheap. Yeah. Thank gosh for Corbeau.

00:33:09.180 --> 00:33:13.359
For what they are and for the price, they're

00:33:13.359 --> 00:33:17.619
a fantastic looking seat. Not what I pictured

00:33:17.619 --> 00:33:19.720
when you were talking about your racing seats

00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:21.940
and whatnot. Oh, I was saying that's what I didn't

00:33:21.940 --> 00:33:25.160
want. No, but I thought you were talking about

00:33:25.160 --> 00:33:28.279
getting a little bit more sportier looking from

00:33:28.279 --> 00:33:30.880
what you were talking about. I did look at those.

00:33:30.940 --> 00:33:32.940
They've got a couple of sportier seats that I

00:33:32.940 --> 00:33:35.099
really like, but for the price, I'll go with

00:33:35.099 --> 00:33:39.660
these. Yeah. So I did reach out to her, so maybe

00:33:39.660 --> 00:33:42.859
we'll have that on the weekend plans for this

00:33:42.859 --> 00:33:46.880
weekend. Then I just have to pay $185 per side

00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:50.740
to mount them into my truck. Oh, one more thing.

00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:54.720
I know we have to wrap up here soon, but we should

00:33:54.720 --> 00:34:01.009
all do some MRE testing. Some what? MRE testing.

00:34:01.349 --> 00:34:04.470
Oh, MRE. I thought you said memory testing. Yeah.

00:34:05.170 --> 00:34:07.549
I don't need that tested. I know that's bad,

00:34:07.690 --> 00:34:12.869
but I want to do some testing. We know MREs.

00:34:12.869 --> 00:34:17.110
We get that. I was going to say, Alex has something

00:34:17.110 --> 00:34:19.329
in mind for us to start doing. We just got to

00:34:19.329 --> 00:34:22.969
get it. Yeah. We talked about that, dehydrating

00:34:22.969 --> 00:34:25.909
our foods at home and doing that, but I would

00:34:25.909 --> 00:34:28.559
like to do that. But I would also like to pair

00:34:28.559 --> 00:34:33.219
it with some of the well -known, like the MRE,

00:34:33.400 --> 00:34:37.159
I guess dehydrated meal that are out there and

00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:40.599
just see what's good because I've been experimenting

00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:43.920
kind of last year and found some pretty decent

00:34:43.920 --> 00:34:46.699
ones that like biscuits and gravy and stuff like

00:34:46.699 --> 00:34:51.099
that that were just pretty damn good for what

00:34:51.099 --> 00:34:53.739
it was. I think it'd be fun to try them out and

00:34:53.739 --> 00:34:57.159
see. get ideas for you know something that we

00:34:57.159 --> 00:34:59.079
could do if you could dehydrate biscuits and

00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:04.099
gravy hell yeah dude i i plan on doing like uh

00:35:04.099 --> 00:35:05.679
we were talking me and mark have been talking

00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:08.039
about this but i plan on dehydrating like every

00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:11.000
weekend every month i'm gonna dehydrate as much

00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:14.780
as i can oh yeah because i want to build up a

00:35:14.780 --> 00:35:16.760
big enough stockpile that we can just be like

00:35:16.760 --> 00:35:19.960
i feel like chili mac today and grab chili mac

00:35:19.960 --> 00:35:23.739
to go with us yeah You just have to make it so

00:35:23.739 --> 00:35:27.199
that it's good, too. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah,

00:35:27.260 --> 00:35:30.619
so I don't know what, like, dehydrating, I don't

00:35:30.619 --> 00:35:32.559
know how long it takes, like, for to get all

00:35:32.559 --> 00:35:35.059
the moisture out of everything, but, like, Chili

00:35:35.059 --> 00:35:37.760
Mac being as wet as it is, I'd be curious how

00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:39.539
long it would take to dehydrate something like

00:35:39.539 --> 00:35:42.219
that. It'd be interesting to see. Yeah, I...

00:35:42.219 --> 00:35:43.619
It'd be a cool, it's going to be a cool little

00:35:43.619 --> 00:35:48.179
study. Because I think if we can dehydrate our

00:35:48.179 --> 00:35:50.400
own food, we're going to save a boatload of money

00:35:50.400 --> 00:35:53.440
and a boatload of time. because that's going

00:35:53.440 --> 00:35:58.500
to make camp cooking like 10 minutes. Yeah, there's

00:35:58.500 --> 00:36:01.300
like zero prep time. Yeah, could you imagine

00:36:01.300 --> 00:36:06.219
doing like skillet potatoes or like what was

00:36:06.219 --> 00:36:08.639
that camp meal that you made the one time, potatoes,

00:36:08.719 --> 00:36:11.300
meat in the bag, hobo meals. Hobo pies, yeah.

00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:14.780
Yeah, doing something like that and then just

00:36:14.780 --> 00:36:17.000
throw them in a freeze -dried, actually cooking

00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:21.230
them good and all the way through. seasoning

00:36:21.230 --> 00:36:23.510
them really good and then just boom dehydrating

00:36:23.510 --> 00:36:25.610
them and rehydrating them a couple months later

00:36:25.610 --> 00:36:29.510
that'd be great i gotta see how because maybe

00:36:29.510 --> 00:36:32.030
a dehydrator isn't the way maybe it's a freeze

00:36:32.030 --> 00:36:36.389
dryer i didn't even think about that uh oh yeah

00:36:36.389 --> 00:36:38.829
he's driving me when you keep it frozen though

00:36:38.829 --> 00:36:44.730
no no No, freeze dryer works similar to a dehydrator

00:36:44.730 --> 00:36:46.869
in that. Yeah, it might actually be a freeze

00:36:46.869 --> 00:36:48.769
dryer that I need, and I think those are more

00:36:48.769 --> 00:36:51.590
expensive. That might set back my plans a little

00:36:51.590 --> 00:36:55.230
bit, but, you know. Yeah, I still want to check

00:36:55.230 --> 00:36:58.190
those. Like, Peak Refuel has probably one of

00:36:58.190 --> 00:37:02.570
the best biscuits and gravies that I've ever

00:37:02.570 --> 00:37:06.230
had. It's a dehydrated meal. Next time that we

00:37:06.230 --> 00:37:09.449
go out, I'll make it for, like, a breakfast and

00:37:09.449 --> 00:37:12.139
have everyone try it. give their uh give their

00:37:12.139 --> 00:37:14.340
opinions on it but dude for a dehydrated meal

00:37:14.340 --> 00:37:19.679
i showed it to um uh mike and lisa you guys know

00:37:19.679 --> 00:37:23.320
them with the tacoma yeah dark yeah yeah yeah

00:37:23.320 --> 00:37:27.500
yeah mike and lisa and zach and nolan and they

00:37:27.500 --> 00:37:30.440
were like damn that's actually pretty good they

00:37:30.440 --> 00:37:31.780
were like we're gonna have to take a couple of

00:37:31.780 --> 00:37:37.059
these so real easy 15 minute breakfast that has

00:37:37.059 --> 00:37:40.929
two servings in it so One of those is great for

00:37:40.929 --> 00:37:46.269
me, seeing only half of them be okay. It's a

00:37:46.269 --> 00:37:50.449
lot of food. I'm a fat ass, so I'll eat it. On

00:37:50.449 --> 00:37:54.070
that note, it's time for us to wrap up a new

00:37:54.070 --> 00:37:59.630
recording. We will see you next time. Catch you

00:37:59.630 --> 00:37:59.869
guys later.
