Welcome to botches off -road. Wow. Can I redo
that? Welcome to botches off -road. My voice
cracked hard. Yeah. Welcome to botches off -road.
Yeah. It sounded like fucking Mickey Mouse for
a second. I'm leaving that whole thing as the
intro. Yes. Yes. That's that's nuts. It's wild
work. Dude, we're fucking back. We had some major
technical difficulties that took us down for
a while and You'll be getting those episodes.
You got two of them already. I got two other
ones that are way worse than those two were.
So I'm like halfway through editing one and I'm
at like four hours on it. Yeah, I took over an
hour, hour and a half on just the 30 minute with
me and Mark. So that that one. hour with Mark.
I'm at like four hours of editing, and I'm maybe
25 minutes into it. Yep. God. It's grueling.
Yeah. Sorry, guys. It's all good. We got to fix
now. I did say, I was like, we got to get Mark
a better quality mic. We got to get this shit
figured out, because I was like, this is just
horrible. The amount of time that we spent editing.
it's just crazy for for context listeners generally
it takes me like for an hour long episode an
hour to edit maybe yeah maybe yeah 45 minutes
hour yeah yeah if we're all really good 30 minutes
but oh dude we've had yeah we've had some that
were just perfect yeah I've had some that I like
because because the way that we have to do it
is that we record each other's each track separately
and then we upload it onto a Google Drive and
then whoever does the editing whether it's me
Mark or Alex we pull all three of those tracks
into audacity and then edit each track Cut out
anything that we can or any big issues and then
we throw the music into it in the front and back
throw some fade in there, isolate the sounds.
Yeah, it's a huge thing. But there's some times
where we do our countdown and we start at just
about the same time, and it's pretty much just
press play, listen through it, and you're good
to go. It was pretty good. Throw the music on
and be done. And then the issue that we were
having with Mark is that his mic was acting weird,
and I think it ended up being his headphones,
right? Yeah. The headphone jack was messing up
my mic for some odd reason. Yeah. But it didn't
match. Since we switched to this computer. Yeah.
It wasn't even just the headphone jack, though.
Every time the headphone was plugged in, regardless
of which jack we used, it would do it. Yeah.
It was weird, man. It sounded a lot like when,
back in the olden days, when you had your really
cheap, over -the -ear headphones, and the plastic
would burst on them. And you hear that crackling
from the plastic every time like the rapper or
whoever singer was make it sound It was like
that every time mark talked You remember when
the Xbox one came out and they sold like the
super cheap headset that came with it Yeah, like
the first edition. Yeah, it sounded like the
mic on that like it was so bad So so yeah, we
had to run it through like an AI scrubber to
try to fix it up and then the AI every time mark
was quiet um it would still like pick up some
sound from my voice or something like that and
AI would make it think like would try to make
it into words just picking up that little bit
of sound so it would so then we had demons yeah
it'd be like like just crazy weird sounds i isolated
one of the sounds and uh maybe i'll throw it
in here for we could cut it in but it was uh
it was nuts so yeah we got that figured out we're
back Butter than ever Butter I'm not not still
not butter like we're buttering ever Our process
is back to normal. Yeah, I was never really a
butter process. I mean smooth like butter, man
Gotta get with the times I'm it's a new catchphrase
butter smooth like butter. So yeah Things have
been crazy, man Yeah, literally like I'm fucking
running around my head chopped off and then I
get home and I'm so tired All I want to do is
play games. So Yeah, the thing is is we we could
just play games and then record that as a podcast
episode and that might still just be half -ass
decent And you're laughing because I'm not sure
it's it was been a conversation at one point
That was a conversation yesterday He's like you
won't play a game while we're starting like I
feel like we get way off side track, especially
when I get focused on something, especially when
we're playing gun game. Yeah, it might be a lot
crazy. We could definitely play over the hill
when it comes out and record that, though. Yeah,
it's one of those things that it wouldn't be
as good without having some visual behind it,
like screen record. Oh, that's one we definitely
do video with. Yeah, for sure. I know we talked
a little bit in the rap. You guys did a little
bit of a rap yesterday, right? The world's shortest
rap of 15 minutes. Yeah, OK. Just enough to let
the listeners know we are not dead. Yeah. So,
gosh, what do I have going on? I basically I'm
starting to get ready to start prepping for winter
high or winter spring. I'm fucking over Winner.
I'm done with Winner, man. I made a few reels
if you follow my Instagram. Yeah, I saw those.
Speaking of which, we're on Winner. We do have
a voicemail and it's about Winner, so I'm going
to play it real quick. Oh, thank you, Drew Foxworthy
for this voicemail. This one is Wreck -It Ralph.
Oh, Wreck -It Ralph. He said he couldn't find
the phone number. It's in every show notes. heater
and I'm very disappointed in it. It worked like
two or three days and then it gave me a code
E10 and I tore the damn thing apart. It doesn't
work. Apparently there's no warranty on the one
that I bought. So I'm going to order another
one. Works good the first couple nights he used
it. I own a couple of rock load rigs. I like
to play in the mud. I like to play on the rocks.
I own a couple of Super Duties because if one
breaks, I got another one to drive. I don't just
keep it deep hole. I don't just keep it gas.
I don't care if it's a power strip. I don't care
if it's a V10. I collect them in my yard. There
you go. Yeah. I guess I'll keep calling back
in. Keep it on all four, and get out on the trail.
Hell yeah. I don't care if it's a two -wheel
drive home, but you're getting out on the trail,
and just get outside. Get the hell away from
video games in the house. Later. Hallelujah!
I got a problem with video games. Come on. That's
my life Yeah, no, I wonder what a e10 code is.
Yeah, it really depends on the diesel heater.
Yeah, maybe it's an oil pump fault So yeah, thanks
for calling record Rob, uh, you know, I That's
it's a quality control issue. I think I mean
really there's there's so many of these cheap
Amazon diesel heaters that people just use and
use and use and abuse and have no issues with
it all. And then it takes just one. And, you
know, it's kind of the luck of the draw when
you pay the price of that price and you just
hope that it's one of the good ones. And the
thing is that there's so many different brands,
but that doesn't like you could buy like an H
calorie like what I've got, which seemed to be
pretty OK. But then you could buy another H calorie.
and it'd be absolute fucking garbage. Just quality
control. Yeah. You look at Viva's website, they
have like almost over a hundred diesel heaters.
They're all just slightly different from each
other or something. Yeah. There's so many of
them. And they all have the exact same actual
heater. It's the only difference is casing for
the most part. Just some different configurations.
Maybe a controller. Layout. Yep. Yeah, so I mean,
you play in the lottery every time. And I look
at it as kind of a scale, like your old justice
scale. The lower the price on some of these things
that you need more often or more critical. There
is a scale to that like you you're giving up
a little bit of quality control For price and
you know that sometimes your skills gonna be
tip not so much in your favor You know it just
depends You know like with my diesel heater.
I I think I had one error code on it and You
know it shut down. I turned it right back on
it started and ran for another few hours, so
So far The night that I used it, it kept me warm
enough not to die. So not that I would have died.
So far, the only issue I've had with mine is
that the 120 to 12 volt adapter got some coffee
spilled on it at work and broke. Yeah. Oh, but
the heater itself is fine. I did speak to Mitch
because he's got the H calorie suitcase, the
black one, and he said the only issue that he's
ever had with his is that I think he said it
might have struggled on altitude because I didn't
have the altitude adjustment and then and then
he said that and that's the older model and then
he said that the one cap leaked a little bit
so he literally just has a plastic like plastic
Saran wrap and then put the cap over it so I
mean yeah mine simple fixes but Mine has the
altitude adjustment, the auto one where it connects
to the app and then automatically adjust based
on that. Marks claims it's Bluetooth, but we
haven't even tried it yet. So yeah, I don't even
know what app we have to get. Yeah. Yeah. Usually
you got to that QR code somewhere. Sometimes
there's a sticker on the like, I think I had
a sticker on my diesel heater with a QR code.
I think there's like two of the other thing is.
Yeah, I can't in good conscience recommend the
app for 90 % of these diesel heaters Because
they're all Chinese apps and they tend to have
bullshit hidden in them I dug through the h calorie
one for like two days to see where it's pulling
Before I started using it and it's not sending
out any extra data It is sending out altitude
data with GPS, but it's not sending out location
data with GPS, which is very nice because that
gives it the ability to determine when it needs
to adjust or not adjust. Good to know. I just
downloaded it. Not your line. Don't care. But
that's where we differ. But yeah, no, I mean,
like we said, you're going to have that issue
when you get into. some of the cheaper diesel
heaters. I think that the scale tips a little
bit as you go into more of the high quality ones
where they kind of get the parts in. They may
be the same parts, but they get the parts and
they handle it themselves. They assemble, put
better quality products here and there. You know,
for the most part, once you hit about 120 bucks,
everything above that's the same until you get
to the really expensive ones that are made in
Germany or made in the USA. Yeah. everything
from like 150, everything from like 150 to like
500 is the same thing in a different case. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. We've spoken about this a bunch recently.
So I don't want to glaze over too much. We're
going to just roll back into the same stuff.
But yeah, I mean, I you know, it sucks, especially
without the warranty. But look at it this way.
You got because they're all pretty compatible
and a lot of them are the same parts. You have
a parts. Heater and you know look up some things
on it, man. It might not be really that big of
an issue either I Fight I fired up the one on
the back of the mule for the first time in like
three months And it had the entire exhaust was
full of snow and when it started the snow just
slid out that because I haven't set up Vertical
you know the snow just slid out that stop and
it like a black ice It was really funny. And
then it started shooting black water everywhere,
like when you start a hood stacked diesel after
it rained. Yeah, that sounds about right, being
a diesel heater. Well, at least it worked. Yeah,
no problem. The one in the back of the mule,
that thing has been banging. It always works.
And it's not treated nice. It lives outside.
It gets the shit kicked out of it. Doesn't speak
English. Nope. You know, that one speaks Japanese,
I think. It turns on, it's like, blah, blah,
blah, blah, blah. Yeah, yeah. Yep. Sounds about
right. But it shows me all the text in English,
but it speaks to me in some other language. Just
helping you learn. Trying to get you to assimilate.
I don't know what language. No, I mean, we've
had, and you know. Thankfully, we haven't really
needed diesel heaters too crazy these past couple
of days. It's actually been pretty warm from
what we've been through lately, just being singles
and negatives and windchill. It was like, what,
20 something today? Maybe 25? We got above 32
today. I was running around with my hoodie on,
nothing else. Yeah, it got warm. You know, for
me at this point, 20 and sunny is t -shirt weather,
it feels like. I was out there earlier with a
kid today and I'm like, ah, spring. I just can't
wait. Oh, another thing I was doing, I was putting
all the events in my calendar, trying to get
everything situated, trying to organize the camp
year out, trying to get all the ones that I know
I want to go to. in the calendar, so Sienna and
I see them, and so she can get the time put in
for them. And then, once this... Are you gonna
come to ours in May? I'm gonna need you to send
me another... Wait, which one? Where? Which one?
Fuck. The bivvy camp? I don't have a bivvy. Bivvies
only? I don't have a bivvy. I mean, I could buy
another one and let you use mine. Probably not.
No reason to buy me another one. I'm going to
try and buy that tent before our first camp,
which is why I'm trying to figure out when my
first camp is. I think it's going to be either
late February. Wait, this month's February. Probably
late April. I almost say this month's February.
Yeah, late April. Just trying to get a time stamp
on it, so I kind of know how much pressure I
need to put on Sienna, my sugar mama. Like, hey.
Yep. I'm pretty excited for baby camping, though.
It's going to be a fucking riot. Yeah. I would
like to do, and I don't know if I'll get to it
this year. Maybe we'll have to do it next year.
Everyone's finances are a little better, and
situations are better. But I'd still like to
do that, like $100 Walmart camp that we talked
about in the first season. We should do that
this year. I, you know, if I have a spare hundred
dollars, I might be able to. But that's being
down to one job. Who knows if I can get Jasper
to some daycare or preschool and I could pick
up another job, that'll be sick. But yeah, we're
getting stuff. Yeah. I've been, he's been home.
I've been just kind of organizing and it's like,
I don't know. How do we explain it? Like you
watch these videos, you start to get cabin fever
and you get restless and I go over the same shit
that I've already been over a hundred times.
I just, I go in there and like touch it. I just,
it's like, uh, it's like when your manager walks
in the room and you're trying to look busy and
you just start like touching shit, getting your
rag out, clean this stuff up. Like I'm busy boss.
I'm doing shit. I'm not leaning. I'm cleaning.
I get guilty. I come back over there and I look
at the diesel heater. I wipe it down with a microfiber
cloth even though I did it the day before. I'm
like, okay, that's good. I walk around, check
my charging. Yep, my faucet's charged. Yep, my
lights are charged. Just stupid. I still have
my tent on the roof. Oh boy. Yeah, he's pretty
bad at procrastinating. Yeah. Maybe taking that
off the roof this week. I will. We're going on
three weeks. I was about to say two to three
weeks though, actually. With these warmer days,
with that being on the roof, you're going to
start getting some mold in there, dude. Yeah,
it's got to come down. It's hot box in that mold
in there. That stuff's so hard to clean out.
Yeah, it's got to come down. Ugh. No, I think
the one thing I am kind of getting ready for
is I'm going to order some seam tape and some
water sealer. And as soon as that tent does come
in, I got rubber washers, some seam tape, and
I'm going to seam tape every weak spot that I
see. They don't have a ton of weak spots, but
there are weak spots around. I mean, everyone
knows with gazelles or any real tent, there are
weak spots around there. So I'm going to seal
tape it just because. The rubber grommets. are
for the pop outs where the rope kind of comes
out. You could throw a rubber grommet washer
and then retie your knot so that bugs and stuff
can't really get in there. Yeah, small mice,
whatever. So going to get that ready. I'm arranging
our luggage cubes. I'm going to be cleaning out
the truck the next day that I don't have Jasper
up my ass and that I could just Mean just clean
and clean and clean the inside of that truck
start organizing pulling stuff out I got plenty
of time. I have a knife Sorry, I'm being attacked
by dogs while I play with the knife. Yeah It's
a great choice. I was very confused by that statement
Congrats me, too You call that I'm gonna be,
not really, it's a broken off razor blade. Look
at this thing. It's all broken off and stuff.
But like that last little bit is sharp. I'm gonna
be ripping everything out of the back of the
Forerunner and rebuilding my little table shelf
thing here soon. Yeah, I haven't actually purchased
the rest of my setup. the file cabinets that
I've been talking about. So once the sun comes
out, the snow melts, I'm gonna sand down that
little file cabinet I got and start working on
getting some other file cabinets and sand those
down, paint them with, what are you, Rhino line,
whatever paint I can find. Seein' a - Rust -oleum.
Something, whatever. Whatever's black or textured.
Um, Sienna, the nice part about her working at
AutoZone is when things get deeply discounted,
she's like the first to know. So like a bunch
of spray paint went on for like a dollar, and
she was like, which ones do you want? Which ones?
I said, if it's black, buy it. I don't care what
it's for. I don't care what brand. If it's a
dollar and it's black, buy it. Jesus. Yeah, I...
It's good. Hey man, I get new wheels. It's just...
Throw it up on jack stands, put it in four wheel
low, and just shh. New wheels, new tires. Show
ready. Oh my god. Anyways, yeah, so. Works every
time. It works every time. Fucking hell. I spray
my bumpers. I spray my. All right, so I spray
that front valance atop of the windshield. I
throw trash bags and tape the trash bags around.
What is, oh, okay, it's your dogs. I was like,
what the hell? Spray my mirrors. Oh yeah, I have
three dogs. It's hard to keep them under control.
Oh no, that's all right. I'm sorry. I was just
like, it squirreled me for a second. I was like,
what the hell is that? But I thought it was Alex
fidgeting with another one of his things. Like
every, every couple episodes, it's like a Jeep
CJ or a locker. My CJ, my CJ had a rough day
and I'm really sad about it. So Jackson, he's
not allowed to play with this thing, right? Yeah.
One second. Yeah. The thing about saying that
someone's, your kid is not allowed to play with
a toy. That's never going to happen. That's a
risk. So yeah. He gets this thing off the the
desk today. He broke the top so you see it's
got it used to have a removable top Yeah, he
broke this window. Oh geez he broke He broke
the roll bar. Well, that's not very and he broke
the spare tire off it Well, you know what I mean
It can't handle like He stepped on the top. He
was jamming ramming it against stuff to break
the rest of it. Oh god Yeah. This isn't a toy,
right? This isn't something you're supposed to
just go play with. It's supposed to be a show
thing. It's a model. And sure, I sit here and
roll it around. If monkey see, monkey do. I'm
really sad. You put it into a place where he
can grab it, and man, that's a toy. That's the
thing, though, is they just don't understand
that concept. Sienna's dad has a bunch of model
airplanes. like World War II airplanes and stuff
like that. He'll climb the bookshelf to get one
of the model tanks, and one of the barrels was
missing off the tank one day. And I'm like, you
know, like, what can we do? They're toys, and
he can't get to them. Have confirmed he must
have stepped on it one of the axles or bet. Damn!
Dude, that CJ is a flimsy. That's why Jeep owners
have to swap everything out before it's off -road
capable and on -road capable. Yep. Axles. The
worst part is, every though. You see these? These
are wheels I bought for it and just hadn't put
on yet. Oh, there you go. So like, even my model
Jeep, I was going to be swapping out axles. See?
See? Usually like an XJ, well, XJs are a little
better because they'll just blast their $500
XJs through things until they blow up and buy
a new one. But like, like older Wranglers or
CJs, like half of them. are swapped axles and
350s. There's some kind of Chevy small block
or something in there. I think my uncle had a
Scrambler and they had a Chevy 305 in it. I think
it's cool. That's a terrible combo. That's what
he had, man. I think he pulled it out of a Malibu
or something. Which was junked. I had a CJ five
with a Ford 289 in it, and that thing would do
fucking wheelies. Yeah. Yeah, there's, if I ever
find the video, there's a guy that made his like
a drag Jeep and it looks like a regular stock
like CJ, but it's like double. It's like, what
is it? Double twin twin turboed. Yeah, there
you go. Twin turboed. I think it was just, you
could hear it go. It was so cool. And it do wheelies
immediately. Awesome. I think I've seen that
one on Instagram. Yeah. Yeah. It's really cool.
Yeah. Did you see the Jeep Dyson, the botches
off -road Instagram? Uh, I don't know yet. Maybe.
I'll have to look. I've been neglecting the botches
chat on Instagram. I just don't - You've just
been neglecting us. No. No. Period. No. Plus
I don't think he's the only one though. I just
tagged you in a climber. Wow. That's a stretched.
Wow. That's interesting. Jeep. That's funny.
What the hell have they got in that? One of those
old. I know like I'm like either they're lazy
and didn't want to chop the frame up or they
put a big ass motor in there. But it's more because
so it's for for listeners. It's a Jeep on what
appears to be like a I can't even say it's a
Chevy frame like I don't know what it's on. it
because maybe it is a Chevy a sing it could yeah,
it's probably a single cab Chevy frame or single
cab Ford frame one of the two and They just left
the frame and then just stretch the body of the
Jeep Mostly the body. Yeah, the front part is
a hood front. Yeah Most people stretch the rear.
No, they just decided to stretch the front out
Well, the front would be easier to stretch It
just reminds me of the car from League of Gentlemen's.
I was just about to say that. I was just about
to say that earlier. I was like, hmm. But yeah,
no, that car was sick, though. I wanted that
car for so long. The reel of my bumper breaking
just hit 40 ,000 views on Instagram. That's like
the most. It's not embarrassing, but it's like
of all the reels that you want to blow up, that's
not really the. Yeah. the piece of pie that you
want, right? Like it's gaining like 15 followers.
I don't know if it's worth it. You got quite
a few followers or botches off roads got quite
a few followers from the winter camp set up.
Yeah, dude. We get a lot that that real kind
of blew up to 23 zero shared it and then. Yeah,
they followed us and then it just kind of flowed
in after that Yeah, they did that after I tagged
him when I was hoping they'd send me a 23 zero
for Christmas They didn't they still didn't they
didn't they didn't Maybe they're just really
late to it Maybe he gets it next Christmas. Yeah
They're like finally don't even ask they don't
even ask for his address They find it based on
the couple of times. He's doxxed himself on here.
I'm fine. If that's if that's the case It's once
it no just kidding, but send me gifts Poop in
the poop in a bag is not count. Oh You know some
local news by the way We're gonna have to lock
our fucking doors cuz I don't know what it is
with the Croton area around us But Croton gets
so many fucking robberies and shit like their
cars getting broken into Like it's the meth it
I know. Yeah, the meth meth is crazy I don't
know why you're saying I don't know what it is
about Croton. It's mostly white cloud just migrated
to the. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, I know it's the
math. It's just like when you start hearing about
all these weird circumstances like, hey, there's
footprints in my yard and all of a sudden my
water tap is on. OK, that's weird. So I shut
the water tap off. And then in the morning when
I was feeding the animals, I noticed my back
window is blown out of my truck like. the fuck
or catalytic or catalytic converters or weird
unmarked cars with people coming up to doors
um you know some of these guys are actual genuine
salesmen some of these people are a little too
paranoid but i like it's it's warranted at this
point because of how many like fucking fake salesmen
and shit are out there scouting houses but Yeah,
I don't think there's that many fake salesmen
out there scouting houses I I mean if they don't
want to give you a card and like Like and not
to say that I'd ever do this, but if I was a
hardened criminal scouting houses to burgle Then
I would definitely be coming up in a polo and
khakis with a fake business card to scout your
house Like that's not because people people just
expect it now Well, yeah, now, but like, that's
what, that's what, like, you're still gonna have
a nicer or dress up as a Jehovah's Witness. Study
a few lines. The secret is, the secret is, you
go in saying that you're with the gas company
and you need to check the gas main. Cuz who's
gonna not let you in it make you like I found
three or four houses that had a leaking gas main
we'd like to come in and check to see if you
do and then have some Sensor for depicting carbon
monoxide, but have it faulty so it goes off You'd
be like oh we have to be in here next week to
fix it and then boom now You got time to steal
everything. Yeah, they have a gas main. I mean
it Yeah I mean, yeah, there's ways around it.
You'd have to figure something out. Well, you
don't go to the houses that have propane. You
do it in town. It's like the guys that check
your electrical meters or whatever to come in.
You can do that. I mean, there's so many. So
the other day, we were driving out to go to the
store. And I look, and the tree, not even like
10 feet from the back rear end of my truck, there
was a tree. And it had blue paint on it. I'm
like, The fuck? And I looked, and I looked at
Sienna, and she goes, what? Like, maybe I just
haven't been out in a while, but how long has
that blue paint been on that fucking tree? Because
I know a dad didn't do that. And she goes, what
the fuck? Then we started looking. Was that out
by the road? No. It was 10 feet behind my truck,
like 20 feet from my house, where my truck was.
And the power line, it's got to be the power
line, people, because the power line goes right
past it and the tree kind of touches that line
a little bit. Yeah, that's probably what it is.
I was going to say, I'm assuming it's tree surface
and some degree of marking. But I mean, we have
a dog kind of chained up to the front right now
because he keeps getting out. His collar keeps
dying and we don't know. And then we get messages
saying he's out on like 120th or something like
that. But anyway. He's a troublemaker, man. He
just likes to be a free bird. But yeah, no, it
was crazy. And I had no idea that anyone is even
there. And it got me kind of paranoid. And I
was like, I want some cameras because there's
some times where like we used to have a lot of
cars in our yard. And I'm just waiting for crackheads
to look for catalytic converters. But, you know.
that's it's just math is crazy everywhere right
now the crack heads can have my catalytic converters
you don't even have them on any vehicle they're
just gonna saw your exhaust off anyway the black
truck might have some good to know it'll fund
half of my uh half of my tent if you hear anything
in the middle of the night just It was probably
a BRB. I think a dog's filtering through my trash
can. Yeah Yep had that happen the other day too
with our dog. I let him inside for a little bit
when it got really cold Yeah, and we had a trash
bag sitting out by the door that we need to go
throw in the trash thing and I fucking all of
a sudden it gets real quiet over there and I'm
like so it's like a Quiet that you know, someone's
getting into trouble. It's either the kid. Oh,
yeah And I look over there and he's got that
whole fuckin' trash bag ripped out. I said, that's
the last fuckin' time I let you inside out of
generosity. Of course, I bitched out and I let
him back inside a couple days later. Somehow,
like, he came inside and then jumped on the table,
ate all the kids' food, got on the counter, ate
a whole fuckin' loaf of bread. and then pulled
down our leftovers, ate those, all in the span
of me taking a crap in the toilet and coming
back, and I'm like, dude, that's it, you're done.
You're not coming back inside again. I can't
fucking trust you. It was just my wife filtering
through the cabinets, doing dishes or something.
Too paranoid. Hey, you know what? I have an announcement.
What's that? Now, fuck. Canada. Fuck you. We
win. Oh, my God. Sorry. Wrangler Lily. Looks
like a Wrangler. Yeah. Sorry, buddy. Yeah. I
just picked him up by his balls on accident.
Oh, no. How would he do? The old nut grabber.
Yeah, that'll do it every time. That's the same.
He ran away from me now. I scream the same fucking
way when people grab me by the nuts. But yeah,
anyway. Yeah, fuck you, Canada. Fuck you. You
lose. You lose. USA five to zero and women's
hockey. Go fuck yourself. I'm sorry. I didn't
see. I didn't see the results of the men's hockey.
I watched the Canada versus I don't think the
men's have done. Uh I know. I think The men's
hockey versus, I can't remember who it was, USA,
is five to one, so we smoked them. But it wasn't
Canada. But the women against Canada, USA, USA.
Five to zero. Today at three, US played Latvia,
five to one. I missed that game. We coming back
with your tears, boys. Coming back with those
tears when I was at a work meeting today. I watched
the Canada versus Fuck who did Canada play? But
anyways Canada was looking fucking good. Yeah
Yeah, I'm nervous. I Mean, I'm I know like and
what pisses me off too. Is that? One of the spokespeople
for the Olympics were like who we're not gonna
allow you to do fighting and we're like Are you
fucking kidding me? That's like, I don't really
like any sport. Like I don't, I'm not like a
diehard fan of any sport. I just get really patriotic
when USA goes against other people. But like,
I, but hockey, I could sit and watch a full game
of hockey and I could, I could be like, yeah,
dude, let's fucking go. Like when the Red Wings
would play, they had a, a Cronwall. It was a,
it was a Cronwall, right? Yeah, we had a Cronwall.
Yeah, and he'd fucking Cronwall people They had
a he had a move to Cronwall people and it was
like hitting a fucking wall. That was great,
dude I loved it when they were aggressive hockey
was like the hockey kept the aggressiveness for
the longest time like after any other sport like
NFL kind of cooled down and oh that was too head
-to -head Like we're worried about CTEs or what
is it? Whatever they are some head bullshit.
I was like, dude, you're paying these motherfuckers
40 some million dollars a year. They know the
risk. If they want to keep doing it, they keep
doing it. They're they can retire. Like I do
feel bad, though. But like, you know what I'm
saying? But man, they're just walked up to me
so gingerly. He's like, are you going to try
and pick me up on my balls again? We're going
to twist the ball. I'm sorry, buddy. I didn't
mean to. Yeah, I. Non motorsports, the only non
motorsport I like is hockey. Everything else
is just kind of like football. I can't watch
football anymore. It. Yeah. Like I didn't watch
Super Bowl this year. I didn't either. And that
got a horrible review by most people. I don't
know if we want to get into that show. Yeah,
that was it. But yeah, I don't want to get too
political and do it. I've watched bits and pieces
of both halftime shows. Both halftime shows were
really good. I don't know why a halftime show
has to be political. Yeah, I think I think the
political thing about. All right, let's make
this like a one minute thing. Just explain explain
why it's political. It's yeah. Yeah. So it's
political because in a American English. dominated
speaking country where English is the main language,
almost the whole halftime show is done in a different
language that even typical Spanish speaking people
can't understand. Like my wife's dad couldn't
even understand it. Yeah. I think that was a
poor choice, don't get me wrong, but I don't
see why we had to politicize it. Man, like, if
they'd done, like, Camila Cabello or something,
we all would have been on board. Yeah, I mean,
nobody's... Half of her songs are Spanish. But
the thing is, is that he's made political issues
in the past. Like, he's made political comments
in the past, and he's set up... Kids, watch this.
And, like, if you did hear the lyrics, they're
probably not the best lyrics for a kid. Oh, no.
From what I understand, they're all horrible
lyrics. I guess, from what I've read, he changed
a lot of them from their original lyrics specifically
for the Super Bowl. Yeah, so... Well, then at
least... release what he did. Yeah. So that's
what I want to know. Like, yeah. But like, and
then I see a lot of videos, which this isn't
political. But as far as just the there's a bunch
of fucking tall grass in the middle of the field.
Oh, yeah. And that you saw videos of these people
scrolling side to side, looking at the crowd
of people. And you got one or two dancing. The
rest of everyone else is like, look, there was
no crowd engagement at all. Yeah, you couldn't
even see him on the field when he was in the
grass. If you go to the one with Kid Rock, like
there was crowd engagement. It was pre -recorded,
though. So like. Yeah, so and then so to be fair
and scrutinize both, because we aren't really
a left or right. We're both all kind of in the
middle, I suppose. But but just scrutinize Kid
Rocks. Yeah, he's had some unsavory. things that
he's said in the past. A lot of it has been taken
a little bit more out of context. And I think
but like usual, like usual, but yeah, I get a
kick out of the thing with the statutory. I call
it mandatory or whatever. Like that was specifically
from a movie was written for the movie. Yeah.
And it was a bad guy and they were depicting
him as the worst he could be. Yeah. And he explained
that too. And then they came after him for lip
syncing. And he's like, and he did a video on
this too with his DJ that used to travel with
him. And he's like, ball with the ball is saying
with two people. He's like, because there's so
much engagement, I'm dancing around, I'm moving
along. He goes, and I need to take a breath.
And he's the one that sings in between the breath,
back and forth. And he goes, and I didn't have
that. So yeah, they had to sync it. And it didn't
sink properly and you know, there's some things
that went on there some technical difficulties
But it happens and he didn't have any he wouldn't
have some ill will above it and at the end of
the day he still Got out there and played but
yeah, I mean both characters have had some unsavory
things that they've said But I think is far as
the quality of the show itself with not necessarily
the people that were there I liked turning points
better. Just because you could see like it was
videoed. Well, like you could see the whole thing.
I don't think I'm pretty sure everybody in that
crowd was paid like, like, I don't know. Like,
I don't know, just kind of look fake. But yeah.
And, you know, to be fair, Kid Rock's kind of
a legend in our area. Yeah. I mean, in Michigan,
so. Like he lives here. He lives in West Michigan.
He's got a house in Torch Lake. Yeah. So obviously
we have a little more of a connection with Kid
Rock. Yeah. You ever heard the story when Michigan
first changed the smoking law? You ever heard
what he would do in bars? He'd go into a bar,
light his cigar or cigarette at the bar. And
then when someone would complain, he'd just go,
I'll just pay for all the drinks tonight. Oh,
there you go. Yeah. So it and like, you know,
I can't even say that, like, the words are the
biggest issue, because, like, Bad Bunny's got
some unsavory things. And Kid Rock, definitely.
Eminem, definitely. Like, a lot of musical artists
in the early 2000s have said some unsavory things,
but that was kind of the Wild West back then.
Like, everybody was saying wild shit. Our comedians
were saying wild shit. Like... That's just how
it was. And now that we've become so overly woke
about shit, nothing's okay to say anymore. And
people aren't allowed to grow old and change.
Like people would come after Eminem for shit
that he said back in like 99 or something like
that. It's like, dude, he's like fucking 50 now.
He got old. He's matured. Like he is not the
same person he was before. I mean, shit, he makes
that point multiple times in his music. Like,
so, so yeah, I mean, Maybe some of the things
that they say aren't the best but like or have
said aren't the best but I still think that Just
me as a person I would like to be able to understand
the whole show and that's just that's my only
thing if like I said if they had Shakira up there
If they had like you said who's that Mila Cabello?
Camilla Cabello. Yeah, whatever that one or Like
even even if you had like Hispanic like pitbull
I don't know if he's Hispanic, but Puerto Rican
or whatever. Isn't his pitbull white as shit?
Dominican, Puerto Rican. I know a lot of his
music has some Hispanic speaking. I don't know.
Oh, he's Cuban. Cuban. I thought he was Cuban.
But either way, even if you had some English
in there so people could follow along with the
song and stuff, that'd be cool. Especially in
an area where... Your the main popularity speaks
English, so you're playing a halftime show for
them maybe have it in English with a little bit
of Spanish or you know or have one English song
one Spanish song I'd be okay with that, too So
that's the that's the main thing behind that
and we can move on right? I don't miss anything
really No, no, I think my only thing is I'm being
tired of always being hip -hop or rap Yeah, why
can't we have Dolly Parton do the halftime show?
She did it for a Cowboys game and it was amazing.
Yeah for any for any listeners that don't know
I'm a big Dolly fan. So Yeah, I think the main
thing is is with The inner city crowds aren't
typically listening to country and so I have
a banger of an idea what's popular, okay? Yeah.
I got the halftime show figured out. So we roll
out some kind of obstacle course and just let
a bunch of Toyotas go try and do it. Yeah. And
like, it could be, it could be sponsored by Toyota
Toyota. Just saying everyone would enjoy it.
Yeah. Sponsored by Toyota. And then you could
have like, I was going to say Toby Keith singing
in the background, but obviously that can't happen.
You could have like, I don't know. Did he commit
suicide yet? I don't know. There's some Epstein
in there. I'm just kidding. They're the most
vile creatures. At least everybody can agree
on that halftime show being the worst if you
just throw all the most vile. in there. Brooks
and Dunn. I don't know if you've seen that guy
lately. The amount of plastic surgery and stuff
that he's had. If you look at him, there was
a meme going around where he just looks like
a serial killer now. He looks scary. Yeah. Who's
the one who supposedly is? Oh, Garth Brooks is
supposedly a serial killer. Yeah, of Brooks and
Dunn. Yeah. Garth Brooks. He's a dude scary -looking.
He could be in a horror movie, but man, dude
I loved his music back in the day I still do
I don't think he's a serial killer. I do I don't
care if the show dates line up with the disappearances.
He's drank the blood He's in the Illuminator
He's probably just eating the babies anyways,
yeah, let's not get into that. Yeah We're going
to we're all of a sudden going to disappear and
everyone's going to be like, oh, yeah, they're
just taking another large break because they
can't be consistently. They just had some they
just they just had some more technical. Yeah.
Yeah. And then you never hear from my feet. Yeah.
Hey, we are all happy. We. Oh, my God. My screen
just flashed. I shit you not. I saw it. Did you
really? Yeah. I faced a black like. Yeah, dude,
they're listening. I have no will. You better
upload this tonight. I'm going to make a post
on all my socials. No, no, they can't hear us.
We're on a secure line. That's what we all think.
Hey, they ain't getting into the. Oh, with the
issues I've been having with the server, the
tap into our Wi -Fi or something. I'm going to
check my wife, my my Wi -Fi signals and I'm going
to. Oh, you're. You're on spectrum, aren't you?
No Not on spectrum. No Xfinity. No, it's uh,
okay What's it called marks on spectrum? Mm -hmm.
Oh, he's tapped for sure. Oh, yeah. We're fucked.
We're fucked bud He's tap for sure. I'm on point
broadband fiber. I Got the fibers that that was
broadband a subsidiary of Spectrum. Don't care.
I dude, it's it's like $80 a month for like 200
meg, 3500 meg, something like that. Yeah, I'm
jealous of shit. I so here with whatever I can
get is what I get. Like it's I think we're at
the best. It's all the best part is I didn't
have to pay like at first. I didn't have to pay
anything up front. They're just like, yeah, we'll
put it in and then you just pay your first month
and. we'll have you locked in for like two years
at $80 a month. And I'm like, sold. That's great
for me, dude. Anytime the fucking our internet
was going out like 30 times a fucking year in
the winter. And we were always having issues.
I could not play like Enlisted or Battlefield
or my favorite. I say my favorite Helldivers.
Helldivers is so fun, dude. You remember that
uh, have you ever played that mark? I have not
I Have to see if I get it to work on this laptop
now after Alex missed with it Yeah, that's somebody
tried. It was having a hard time loading hell
divers is so fun, dude It's like that starship
troopers movie. Mm -hmm where they kill kill
the bugs. Oh, yeah, dude It's so funny and it
has so many like funny like democratic or like
do it for democracy, like the into windows in
there. Oh, God, I love that game. It's hell divers.
I know. I have so many hours into that game before
I stopped playing video games. And I just got
to stop because, like, I don't know, man, like,
especially in the summer, like I'm always doing
something else. Either I'm working or Sienna
is working and we're both watching the kid. You
know, it's hard to get away and do something
different. It's my wintertime hobby Yeah, you
know in the summer like I get all the games and
stuff that I typically like a podcast Unless
I'm driving. I don't listen to really podcasts
anymore. Really so It all kind of Yeah, I know
it's not as big as you wished Alex was just staring
down at his lap and just sighing shaking his
head and I'm like, yeah He's being obnoxious.
He just wants pets so bad. What's what's everyone's
drinking? This is my new doggo. Oh, I got nothing
now. I had squirt Squirt is all out of Gatorade
and I felt like I was gonna die So I went and
got my wife's water bottle because the wife's
water bottles always better Except she put lemon
in it and it's I hate that dude. Why do they
do it? Why did it see I don't put lemon? It's
like a fucking drip of lemon It's like dude come
in No, she she cuts up lemon slices and puts
it in there. Yeah, I know. That's what I'm saying.
Like it doesn't it doesn't taste like anything.
It tastes like tainted water. Like it tastes
like the lemons. Yeah, it tastes like lemon taint.
I hate it. What's the point? Oh, and it's beginning
of February, so it's a new month of drift. I
will tell you that this month's drift air freshener
is a banger certified fucking banger. My truck
is the same. Great. Yeah. Uh, macadamian something
or other. No. Yeah, it's it smells like nutty
with a hint of vanilla and oh my God, it smells
so good. Everybody loves vanilla nuts. I like
vanilla nuts. My favorite. I got a candle and
vanilla nut flavor. Hell yeah, dude. It is. It's
good. Uh, I don't know if it's hazelnut or macadamia
nut, but no, it's not. So I think I had a, what's
the other one? Apple cinnamon spice or apple
cinnamon crisp. Like that's like my favorite
winter scent. Well, all right, boys, we're just
talking about air fresheners and smells. We're
just chatting. Well, we're talking about nuts
too. Like there's been a lot of nuts going on
in this episode between you fondling your dog's
nuts, looking down at your own. Feel so bad for
him That was like a cartoon yelp like you're
gonna have to go through when you edit this and
just Just turn that down in volume. You're gonna
kill everyone's ears They're gonna be driving
the AI The AI will probably fully erase it. Oh,
yeah, we'll see that or make it crazy Yeah, all
right boys well Want to go play some repo. Mm
-hmm repo Yeah, you wanna play some repo. What
is it? You collect scrap. It's really fun. It's
hard to explain Well, how do you expect me to
find it and download it then have you you go
to steam and type in repo Oh, you guys have updated
steams. Oh, I Go to my task manager and shut
down all the updates because it always fucking
Like takes up all my computers GPU just to do
it You see when you run Linux you get to decide
when it updates. Yeah, I mean I do I go to the
task manager go no Or you just have a computer
with a good processor and a good well, I'm sorry.
I can't I don't have Three nuts to sell to get
one. You've got a tenth. You've got a tenth Jedi
nine and Like what we have forty sixty or something
I don't know. It's it's good. Like it doesn't
struggle with games at all. My monitor struggles.
And it's just when I have a bunch of shit open
and then it tries to update all that shit at
once. It takes a ball like the bandwidth of my
Internet. So shit starts to kind of freeze. Yeah,
I got my download speeds aren't the best despite
having a great Internet. That's kind of the Okay,
um Well like so like I have fast internet, but
it's like my download isn't like The best I don't
know how to explain that All right. Well on that
note Gavin's internet sucks. You know, he talked
it up dude. I'm at I'm at a hundred megabits
a second Hey, me too on down and hold on. I mean
it before we stop. I'm gonna finish this up I'm
clocked in and yeah 120 megabits down up. Thirty
six megabits up. So my line of my line of sight
mind you instead of fiber is currently at one
thirty five down and seventeen point six up.
Oh that's not yeah well hey maybe yeah I'm at
thirty six up you know what if I would have a
lot better internet if I should talk to you about
that later - I got to figure out a better to
reach the Wi -Fi router or a booster because
I can't run either. I can't run ethernet throughout
the whole house. It's on the opposite side of
the house. Why? I could run it outside, I guess.
But don't you have a crawl space? I'm not crawling
around, dude. Have you seen me? Do I look like
a built to fit in the crawl space? I'll come
crawl through your crawl space. I'm built like
a cracker barrel built like those big cracker
barrels. There ain't no way or. Just do like
I do. I have cat five cables running in the top
corner of my upstairs, like throughout the whole
upstairs. It's not my house. I'll run it outside
and maybe I'll bury it and just run it in through
my window or something. Coins get one of those
plug -in Wi -Fi boosters. They're okay. The other
thing you could do is figure out, uh, you could
do through your outlet. So there's, uh, internet
over DC. Yeah. Yeah, that sounds sketchy. It's
not. That shit works amazing. Yeah. OK. Well,
we'll have to talk about that at some point.
But all right, on that note, we'll catch you
guys later. Talk to you later. Later.
