1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,160
I've kind of realized you know how we were talking last week about how it's kind of hard to be a kid now

2
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,680
I was real realizing this when I went over to my friend's house yesterday

3
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:17,040
It really is hard to be a kid now because you can't even play Ding Dong ditch anymore. Everybody has a ring cam

4
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:23,040
Yeah, I guess that's true. Well, unless maybe older people maybe older people don't like the old lady down the block

5
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:29,040
She might not have a ring, but he was telling us about how like his his son's friends came over and they were all like

6
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,480
Yeah, we're gonna go out and he told them not to go Ding Dong ditching

7
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,420
Well, he got a I guess a Facebook notification in his

8
00:00:37,020 --> 00:00:42,420
Neighborhoods group and they were like who are these kids playing Ding Dong ditch and this and that and they were out of picture

9
00:00:42,420 --> 00:00:47,600
Of them on the ring camera and I was like man if we would have had ring cameras back then we would have been done

10
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,160
We would have been really really bad. Did you ever so you played Ding Dong ditch?

11
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:53,160
Did you ever play the other game where?

12
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,760
like maybe it was on a dare or something like that but I

13
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:04,880
I hate even saying this on the podcast, but we're already into it. Have you ever you remember it being like, okay?

14
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,120
You're gonna walk up to the door knock on it

15
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:13,960
Moon them and run away or something like that. Have you like have you ever done something like that? Oh, I've never done that

16
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,300
I've never done the flaming poop. I didn't do that one. I didn't do that one

17
00:01:18,300 --> 00:01:19,760
It was always like stupid stuff

18
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:25,800
It was always like go up to the door stick your tongue out make a stupid face and run or something like that

19
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,800
I think the worst was like mooning or

20
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:33,520
Yeah, it was just let's be honest. Did you ever moon one of your neighbors? Did you ever?

21
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:41,000
Yes, I did you want to know which one it was and this is like this it was squirrel man. That's who oh my goodness

22
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,880
That's why why do you think that why do you think that dude had such a problem with kids? I don't

23
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,720
We wondered why at the time but

24
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:55,240
And then yeah, there was another neighbor as well. There was there was two. I don't I don't know why that was a thing

25
00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:00,520
But yeah, we thought we were funny, but we lived in a cul-de-sac so everybody saw everybody knew who we were

26
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:05,360
So I don't know why we chose our own neighborhood, but maybe that's where it's hard to get away with stuff nowadays

27
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:12,440
Ladies and gentlemen, it's all recorded. Well, I'm Chris and I'm Micah and this is the donut box

28
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:19,200
Podcast welcome back to another wonderful episode of the donut box podcast. We are so glad that you are here

29
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:24,200
It's September man. It's cooling off at least where I live is it cooling off down there for you guys? Yeah, man

30
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:31,680
It is actually in the low 90s and I know for everybody else that's in the country. They're like load 90s

31
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,680
That's cool enough. It's like yes

32
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:39,240
Typically this time of year we're still in the hundreds so it's like being in the load 90s. It feels like fall outside

33
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:46,040
Praise God. Well, we are here with another episode. We wanted to do another free flow episode

34
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,440
We are so glad that you guys are here and this is just gonna be us

35
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,620
Asking each other questions now. I do have to ask you a follow-up question

36
00:02:54,620 --> 00:03:00,160
This wasn't on my list of questions, but can you please explain to the listeners?

37
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:05,660
Why you had a neighbor called squirrel man? Why did you call him squirrel man? You have to you have to explain that

38
00:03:05,660 --> 00:03:11,080
I have no idea why we called him a squirrel man. So when I moved to the neighborhood, he was already kind of the

39
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,500
How do I put this so he lived on a cul-de-sac and it was

40
00:03:15,020 --> 00:03:16,920
We've talked about this on other episodes

41
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:23,920
It was the only cul-de-sac that I ever remembered that actually had this big grass like circle in the middle of the cul-de-sac

42
00:03:23,920 --> 00:03:29,000
Where the road went around like it wasn't just the big concrete circles had like a grass bit to it

43
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,040
And so it was kind of spread out a little bit more

44
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:39,200
But there was all these townhomes and he kind of lived for down from us and kind of on this corner and

45
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:44,160
I remember I think it was because he was kind of crotchety, right?

46
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,240
and it was like him and his daughter that lived there and like he had a bunch of cats and

47
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:56,280
The biggest thing that he was known for is if you kicked a ball in his yard or if you got too close to his car

48
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:01,520
Like he was notorious for looking out the window and he would come outside and yell at you

49
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,000
Well as bored kids we would try to provoke him a lot

50
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,720
But the reason he was called squirrel man. I really don't know it was just I moved to the neighborhood and

51
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,520
Mr. I don't know mr. H or

52
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,380
Benji we can call him I guess he

53
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,200
He was telling me about like everybody in the neighborhood. I remember like he pointed like everybody's house

54
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,600
He's like that so and so's house that's so and so's house and you just like that squirrel man's house

55
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,800
He's like you don't want to throw the ball at squirrel man's house. It's like oh, okay

56
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:39,320
And that was just a thing. I and we just called him squirrel man until he moved out

57
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,800
So I don't I don't know I remember you telling me about squirrel man, and I never saw him

58
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:50,360
But in my mind he was always like this short stocky man probably middle-aged

59
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:55,400
He had a goatee and he was like balding but on the back of his head

60
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,400
He had one of those pony tails, you know

61
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,400
Like a rat tail like a rat tail

62
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,000
But like no like a long like pony tail the rest of his head was bald

63
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,040
And I don't know why I thought he was an Asian man for some reason, but I never saw him

64
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,240
But that's how I pictured him in my mind

65
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,960
I tell you exactly who he looked like him Lubbock. I told know who I'm talking about

66
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:22,840
What's his name not Ron Roberts the he's the meteorologist a really tall lanky one with the like mustache like a mustache

67
00:05:22,840 --> 00:05:27,000
Yeah, oh John. I think his name is John Roberts John Roberts. There you go

68
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,480
he

69
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:34,480
He looks exactly like that guy like he was tall lanky with like one of those like pepper

70
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:42,040
Salt and pepper mustaches salt and pepper hair like he drove a Lexus like he kind of he wasn't wouldn't say he was put together

71
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,000
But every time he left the house he was kind of dressed well

72
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,920
So I have no clue what he did or anything like that, but yeah, he was uh, I

73
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,720
Mean he did yell at the kids though

74
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,640
I mean he would yell at you if you even came close to his yard like you don't even have to be in his yard

75
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,760
And he would yell at you so I don't know what the deal was with that

76
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,120
That's awesome. Well, I guess that was my follow-up question

77
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,560
Do you have a question you want to ask because if not I have another one? Yeah, go ahead

78
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,320
We won't count that first one

79
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:11,920
You just had to ask you had to clarify to the listeners of who's grow man was yes

80
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,160
All right, so on a scale of one to ten

81
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:23,120
How nerdy would you rate yourself because I know both of us we would probably admit that we are nerds and again nerd is

82
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:28,720
Kind of a gen nerds have become more popular or meant more mainstream. It's not an insult anymore

83
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:35,200
But on a scale of one to ten, how would you rate yourself? I also feel like it's also how do you put this? I also feel like it's

84
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:36,880
um

85
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:42,160
How do you define nerd because I feel like it's become a lot more of a general term like for myself

86
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,480
Um, I would consider myself

87
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,680
Um, of course of a plain nerd, but at the same time

88
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,640
Um, like a football nerd for sure

89
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,640
There are those things. I mean

90
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,560
I

91
00:06:54,560 --> 00:07:00,960
What would you consider a nerd? I guess for me it's anybody that's really really intent on something to the point where they like

92
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,920
They almost study it or they do study it. You know what I mean?

93
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:10,320
Like I guess that's my definition of it. Everyone has those things they're obsessed with but when I talk about being a nerd

94
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:18,160
There's different flavors of nerds. So there's like the anime nerds. There's the marvel nerds

95
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:24,320
There's the star wars words. There's a sci-fi nerd. I feel like the rest there's wrestling nerd like

96
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:30,000
Just kind of defined to me how you would so for me. Yeah, that's that's for me

97
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:35,200
I I think that I mean almost studying the thing football aviation and then

98
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:42,720
Um, if you want to talk about shows and things like that, um, I mean, I do like sci-fi is all the stargate series

99
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,040
I was pretty pretty in on

100
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,240
Um, which is really dirty stuff

101
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:55,440
Um, I I you know, I did watch some battles card galactica because I mean I do kind of look like Dwight shrewd

102
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,640
I figured, you know, might as well watch some battles are galactica while I'm at it

103
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:04,400
And I wasn't huge on it. Um, like there are some it's all about the storyline

104
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:10,160
You know what I mean? And there's something about me and chrysal attest to this. I don't know something about certain shows

105
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,880
If it's made to be outlandish and I know it's going to be outlandish I can prep for that

106
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,880
But if you're going for realism

107
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,440
And you can poke holes through it. I don't really like that if that makes sense

108
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,520
I like more realism on that but to answer your question

109
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,200
I would say on a scale of one to ten

110
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,880
Probably six seven like I'm definitely not

111
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:40,880
I'm I'm not going to a comic con to see some of these people or I'm not going to a sports convention to go get somebody's autograph or anything like that

112
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,600
Um, but at the same time like yeah

113
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,760
Do I research this stuff online and yet do I keep up with it?

114
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:56,880
Pretty pretty heavily. Absolutely. What would you say is the nerdiest thing you've either watched or the nerdiest thing you've ever done?

115
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,000
I think I got to go back to to stargate good old stuff

116
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,240
I think I got to go back to to stargate good old stargate universe. It's one of them

117
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:12,720
They never finished the show and like I still so sometimes I do be reading like fan fiction of how they think it would end if they kept going

118
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:18,640
If like the show kept going so that's that's a pretty nerdy thing. I would say that's probably the nerdiest thing

119
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,560
um

120
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:23,440
Because I don't know it's kind of like and then even

121
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,080
I wouldn't necessarily call this nerdy

122
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,480
But like, you know, even like the ending of the sopranos like reading online like okay

123
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:35,760
How do you think that would end that sort of thing? So just kind of like fan fiction stuff sometimes

124
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,400
Okay, then shifting gears to

125
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:43,920
The aviation thing and I know you could go on a whole long rant about it

126
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,800
But what is the nerdiest like plain?

127
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,240
Nerd thing that you've done that you would say oh man that guy is a plain nerd

128
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:58,640
Definitely one and you can find these on at the trash kid network and aviator society has a few of the videos too, but

129
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:04,720
When I went up to Denver and took the metro liner out to mccook, Nebraska just for some context

130
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,120
mccook, Nebraska is in the middle of nowhere

131
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,720
I think the population was like 10,000 or less. It's just it's in the middle of nowhere and so you take

132
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:18,560
A plane and it's they're very it's the last passenger version of this plane

133
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:23,440
Um, and I mean it's loud. It's clunky everything like that and

134
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,720
So of course, it's one of those things to where there's only two crew. It's the pilots

135
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:33,760
That's the only people who are on the plane and so they help you get on the plane to help you get off the plane

136
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,520
So naturally they're gonna see you get on the plane and get off the plane

137
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:44,400
They were very very confused when they saw me walk off the plane and then they saw me go into that little terminal building

138
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,920
Turn right back around and walk right back and they're like are you are you coming back?

139
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,920
It's like yep. I'm here just for the plane

140
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,840
And they thought that was very very odd

141
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,160
But wasn't that like one of the last

142
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:03,600
Voyages they were gonna retire that plane and that's why you went in a few years probably but now they're they're gonna continue

143
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,320
Doing it for for a while at least the passenger version of it

144
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:11,360
There was rumor that they were going to like get rid of the passenger side of it and make it into a cargo route

145
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,600
but that hasn't happened just yet, but

146
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:15,280
um

147
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:20,960
It's just one of those things to where it's like it's still an opportunity to do the last one before they retire it so

148
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,160
But now they they thought that was quite weird

149
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:28,480
They were in there like do you do this kind of stuff often and I was just like if I had more money, yeah

150
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,520
If I had more money to do it you bet

151
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:37,120
But I don't yeah, I don't have money to be flying all over the place and doing those little little hops like that

152
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,280
As as the kids say I love that for you and I'm not saying that sarcastically

153
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:47,280
I genuinely love that you have like that thing. I think everyone should have something that they are obsessed with

154
00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:51,840
Or they're they can just nerd out about and I love asking people that question

155
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,800
Like what's one thing you can just nerd out about for me?

156
00:11:54,880 --> 00:12:00,640
I would maybe probably rank myself a seven or a eight. I did go to a comic con and I did dress up

157
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,080
For the comic con so that is a little bit more nerdy

158
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:07,120
um, and of course I love Lord of the Rings. I

159
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:12,640
I I just finished season one of rings of power and like I kind of nerded out about that

160
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,680
Like I love when little cameos and things tie together

161
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:22,560
so, uh, but I like for me I go to more comic cons to meet the wrestlers not necessarily like

162
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,360
Oh, yeah, so and so from this tv show is there

163
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,920
This and that but um, I have played pretty nerdy board games like

164
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:35,040
I haven't played dungeons and dragons, but it is something that I do want to play at some point

165
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:40,800
Uh, would you would you play dungeons and dragons? Are you like no, that's not my I try it

166
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,520
I don't understand like I would have to really

167
00:12:44,560 --> 00:12:47,520
I mean go by the rulebook and stuff like that because I think there's

168
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,240
I mean you have to like set up your kingdom and stuff like that, right?

169
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,360
Like there's different cards for drawing to man

170
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,720
And if you are dungeon and dragons players and I'm screwing this up

171
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,240
They don't even listen to me right now. It's all imaginative

172
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:08,720
But like you just say you have your dungeon master and he's like you develop your character and you say a wizard

173
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,560
Uh this and that you guys are on your quest and you're trying to do this

174
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,480
Roll to see if you success

175
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:20,400
But you were like making up the game as you go and you roll to see what the outcome of that decision is

176
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:22,560
So it's a lot of like imaginative

177
00:13:23,680 --> 00:13:24,880
style

178
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:30,160
So you might like that. I don't know. Yeah, I'll be willing to try it. I don't know where I got the other idea from

179
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,160
But

180
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:38,880
Yeah, I mean there's different variations. Maybe you're thinking of magic the gathering. I don't know maybe maybe that's true. Maybe that's true

181
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:44,000
Um, all right. You ready for my first question for you. Yeah, sorry. That was a nerd rabbit hole

182
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,640
And I didn't mean to go down. No worries. And we didn't even get on football

183
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,640
I could talk to you about X's and O's

184
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:56,320
About that crap and that's nerdy is messed too. Um, what is the craziest conspiracy theory that you believe in?

185
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:01,200
So is there a conspiracy theory out there that like some people think outlandish that you're like, you know what?

186
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,880
I think that that might be tangible probable or you know, mighty

187
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:13,120
Is totally a thing. Yeah, so we kind of talked about this the last episode but about like the bohemian grove and like the mason's with

188
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,360
construction of like the declaration of independence and everything

189
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,280
um

190
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:24,800
And so like I I firmly believe a lot of like kind of what the not that there's a map

191
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:29,040
Treasure map on the back of the declaration of independence, but I do believe there's a lot of those

192
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,600
Societies that do have so much

193
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,160
Uh control over the society

194
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:41,680
I do believe like if you study bohemian grove and all that stuff they like they're the ones that pick quote unquote the president

195
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,280
um

196
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:48,240
Before hand and so I I really do believe like that's like that's a big thing

197
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:55,120
Um, obviously the connections and the similarities between the linkin assassination and the jfk

198
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,920
assassination like if you want to

199
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:02,720
delve into all that like a lot of it is there's too many similarities. There's too many like

200
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:10,400
Uh coincidences like all that stuff and so again, I believe a lot of that is like, uh, just kind of controlled

201
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:15,040
But maybe that's the consp- I don't believe like in the jet stream things

202
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:21,680
You know what you know what that conspiracy theory is go into it. I think I do but go into it basically like when they're

203
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:29,040
When planes are releasing like the jet fuel and stuff. Oh, you talking about the jet trails that are in the sky like

204
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:35,600
Yeah, all that like it's secretly releasing mind control serum or something in the air or whatever. Yes

205
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:42,240
I don't believe that. No. No. I think that stuff is totally outlandish. Um, what would you what would you think though about?

206
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:47,040
What are what do you think about like 9 11? I know we're getting into touchy subject

207
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:52,800
But do you think a lot of that just I think that's I guess where I'm going with it is that's where I feel

208
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:59,760
My most conspiracy theories come out of is because there's too much about 9 11 that doesn't add up at least to me

209
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:05,040
Um, as far as what what happened and whatnot. There's all sorts of conspiracy theories

210
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:06,560
um

211
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:12,000
talking about like accounting and paying for uh the upcoming war that that was gonna have and a lot of things that were

212
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,840
Happening in the world trade center. So if you destroy the world trade center, it not only gives you

213
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:21,840
Leverage to want to start the war and then all of a sudden the accounting for it goes away as well

214
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,000
Um, there's all sorts of conspiracies out there, but I don't know

215
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:32,400
I'm not going to delve too far into the 9 11 conspiracies, but I think that's probably my most outlandish one

216
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,120
I don't know man. I I do think that

217
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:36,880
um

218
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,280
I guess the other one that I you're probably going to be like this is totally outlandish because I already know how you

219
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,960
Feel about this. I do believe that there are aliens and aliens are among us

220
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,400
I really think that there are advanced races that have made it out here and are just like, you know what?

221
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:57,040
Earth's pretty nice. We're just gonna settle in but I think it's races like everybody thinks. Oh, it's alien people

222
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,120
Why can't they just be humans from other planets, right? And they come here and

223
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,080
You know, maybe they had

224
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,160
You know, they have more technology

225
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,800
um, my basis for that is I feel like

226
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,840
40s 50s and yes, everybody says it's the outcome of war the cold war all this other stuff

227
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:20,400
But we had so many advancements and technology think about where we were at in the 1800s mid 1800s late 1800s

228
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:27,040
We were in black powder rifles and we went from that all the way to automatic assault weapons and you look back

229
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:34,640
Even in history before that before the black powder weapons. I mean it took a while for it to get there everything had to

230
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,880
take a while progression and

231
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,640
Yeah, it's like, okay, you can perfect these things for over 100 years

232
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:46,160
But it's like that and then all of a sudden aviation you even take that the Wright brothers would they were flying

233
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:51,600
You know, they flew a few feet everybody thinks. Oh, they flew for this long distance. They flew for like 20 feet

234
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,880
It wasn't even that big of a deal like they just lifted up and sat back down

235
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,680
um, you go from that in 1903 to full-on airliners

236
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:06,960
40 50 years later jet airliners 40 50 years later that are controlled controlled air spaces all this other stuff

237
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,160
And then you talk about the internet and all this other stuff that's happened

238
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,280
like think about how much of a

239
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:20,640
Exponential growth that has to be in order for you to get from those levels of technology to where we were at

240
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,080
late 1800s early 1900s to now

241
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,440
But we've had a ton of aliens

242
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:32,720
or UFO sightings right and all this other stuff and battle of Los Angeles if you've ever seen that sort of stuff

243
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:38,320
But I don't know that's where my conspiracy stuff goes off is like, I don't know man

244
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,360
I think that there's potential that that could be a thing

245
00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:49,360
I think everyone should have some kind of conspiracy quote-unquote conspiracy theory that they believe in because that just shows that you're trying to think outside the box and

246
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,320
There's nothing wrong with that. It's always good to question things. Yes. So for this next question

247
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,920
I kind of need to go down a little bit of a rabbit hole and then once you answer the question

248
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,200
We can circle back to the rabbit hole if that makes sense. So

249
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,960
My good I end the history of our friendship

250
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:11,920
We've always had a history of like a rotating third friend, right? Like we always call them like our third gesture

251
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,760
That's what we call them because pretty much there are there are entertainment

252
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,400
My guess that kind of sounds yeah

253
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,200
It sounds it sounds bad, but hey

254
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,840
Yeah, it sounds it sounds bad, but hey

255
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:31,120
It is so and we can go through if you want to go through like the different phases of the third friends

256
00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:34,160
We've had but if we had a celebrity to be

257
00:19:35,120 --> 00:19:36,720
That third friend in our group

258
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,800
Who would you want it to be that you're like man like all three of us could hang out?

259
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,920
We could have a good time. I think March on Lynch would be funny as mess thing

260
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:49,840
I would I think you'd be a good. Yeah, bro. He's funny. He's funny as mess. He just I don't know

261
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:54,320
I know I know cat Williams would also be fun to hang out with we've talked about that before

262
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,240
Would you want to hang out with Adam Sandler or do you think he's a little too weird?

263
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:03,760
Or do you think his humor is like a little too? No, I'd play bad. Listen, I would play basketball with Adam Sandler

264
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:08,400
He's really good. He's got to be on my team though. He'd probably kick my I like

265
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:14,960
Yeah, he's he's really good at that. I would do Adam Sandler and then you know if Kevin James hadn't lost all that weight

266
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:16,880
maybe him

267
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:22,160
I know that sounds bad, but like sometimes people when they are heavier like they're funnier

268
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:28,000
I don't I don't know what it is and with him and maybe that was that was his whole shtick. I don't know but like

269
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,200
It was like once he once he kind of skinny doubt he

270
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,800
Doesn't seem that funny and kind of seemed like a jerk actually

271
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,320
I know who you would pick though if if they were both still alive

272
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,000
one

273
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,200
Frank Barone, you would want Frank Barone from everybody loves rain. Oh, yeah, I would hang out with him

274
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:52,880
Maybe like in small doses, but also Jerry Stiller from king of queens. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

275
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,680
He'd be a burning man to hang out with to talk about his kids

276
00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:01,040
Oh lord, like can I get invited to Bernie's poker game like if we

277
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:07,920
I think that would be pretty fun. It's like it's funny. A lot of our choices are just like sit-com people

278
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:15,440
And Adam Sandler which store and this could be department store. This could be

279
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:23,120
Whatever which store is probably your least favorite like listen if somebody says we're going and shopping here

280
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:28,800
Or we're going to or we can even open it up to a restaurant. Is there one that comes to the top of your head? That's like

281
00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:30,640
Heck no

282
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:36,960
We're gonna Jericho march around this thing because it needs to come down like um, it's not one that I'm like

283
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:41,360
Oh, uh, like I'll go in the bathroom body works with my wife

284
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,200
But I'm not I'm not

285
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,400
Like I'm on my phone the whole like she's having a great time

286
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,760
She and she's like because she's like here smell this. What do you think of this?

287
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,560
And I'm like it smells like the other one you just get she's like no

288
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,480
It's a different scent. I'm like but doesn't doesn't that just smell like the one you already have

289
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,040
She is like no, this is their fall scent. I'm like, okay

290
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:08,800
So she loves that store and and I'll go in there with her and I don't have a problem going in there with her

291
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,200
Um, I would probably say like

292
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,120
Spencers like we're gonna Jericho march around Spencers

293
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,720
Dude like I like I don't know what it is

294
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,360
But I just get like bad like juju when I

295
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:23,040
Bad juju from Spencers?

296
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:29,040
It bought like it just bothers my spirit for some reason. I don't know what like hot topic doesn't like I could go in a hot topic

297
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:36,000
No problem, but Spencers hot topics changed a lot though. Like I feel like hot topic like hot topic used to be

298
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,800
Uh very emo dark goth

299
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,360
You know that sort of thing and yeah, it's it's changed a lot

300
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,840
I'm trying to think of like far as a restaurant

301
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:51,040
Oh, if I have to go and my wife loves panda express, but if I have to go to panda express

302
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,400
I'm not crazy about it. Like they've kind of changed after

303
00:22:55,120 --> 00:22:57,120
COVID I feel like it's not

304
00:22:57,120 --> 00:22:58,320
Good

305
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:04,640
Um, I'm trying to think what other restaurants that I'm like, oh man like I gotta go here like I'm I love

306
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:10,480
Japanese food like like a hibachi or whatever, but I'm not crazy about Chinese buffets

307
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,280
So somebody was like oh going to and I know that the name changed so I could say this

308
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:21,120
We're going to Lin's Chinese buffet. It's just like you're like, oh man. I'm not feeling it. Yeah, not feeling it

309
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:26,000
Also, I'm glad how do you feel about like a golden corral? I'm okay with golden corral

310
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:31,120
But I hated furs. I hated furs and I know you like furs. I hated it

311
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:36,000
I'm glad it closed. Yeah. No, I didn't I didn't like furs furs was like one of those

312
00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:43,280
How do I put this nostalgia spots like I always went there after church on

313
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:49,600
Sunday, you know what I mean? And it was just like okay furs, but um, and that was something else too

314
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,480
I don't know why my high school did this but my high school

315
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,080
Like before football games. They took us the furs

316
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,240
and

317
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,240
Like had us pig out and wondered why we were sick midway through the game

318
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,280
I don't I really don't know why they did that probably because it was cheap

319
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:12,800
What about you? Where's somewhere you're like? Oh, I hate going to this store or oh man. We got to go to this restaurant man

320
00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:18,320
I'll tell you this much. It's not so much anymore. And I think probably because it's changed but used to be

321
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,080
I hated going to Dollar Tree and I don't know why

322
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,360
Um, it was two things one like Dollar Tree has a smell to it

323
00:24:27,360 --> 00:24:31,840
Like every Dollar Tree smells the same way like and you could just walk in there and be like, yep

324
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,000
I'm at the Dollar Tree. I can tell you

325
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:39,760
um, but two I think it's because like I had too many crackhead experiences at the Dollar Tree

326
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:46,240
You know what I mean? And um, so pretty much Dollar Tree or Dollar General Dollar General

327
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,720
I hadn't had too many problems with see mine's the opposite. Here's the opposite really

328
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:57,040
Yeah, and you know, maybe it's different places to where it's different, but um, yeah

329
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,640
At least from the way I've had it. It's just like Dollar Tree. Um, I had

330
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:04,640
like

331
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:10,560
One one instance I had this methhead lady like following me around and like acting like a store employee

332
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,000
And she was just like do you need any help? I'm just like, uh, no

333
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:21,360
I'm okay and just kind of I guess general uncomfortable things happen or like there was one time there was this lady

334
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,760
who had a small

335
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,640
What was it? It was like a

336
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,000
I don't remember it was an obscure pet of some kind

337
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,720
And I was just like what the heck is that I'm trying to remember what it was

338
00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:36,560
um

339
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:42,320
Something about the size of it. No, it was a ferret. That's what it was the ferret and she had this thing on a leash

340
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,320
like but in the

341
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,880
Like the shopping buggy

342
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,920
And I was just like what the heck bro. Like I don't know you just be seeing some

343
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,440
I you just see some things at the Dollar Tree and it's just one of those things

344
00:25:55,520 --> 00:26:00,160
It's like man. I'm just trying to get my stuff and get out. Um, but it's not as bad as it used to be

345
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:02,880
um

346
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,320
The other thing that I used to really really really

347
00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:10,240
Hate was um, I used to hate going to Target

348
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,280
I'll admit it. I used to hate going to Target

349
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,600
Uh, especially with my ex-girlfriend back in the day. Um,

350
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,800
I don't know man. It's one thing going to Target on your own

351
00:26:21,120 --> 00:26:29,360
It's another thing going to Target with the ladies because everything is a stop and everything is worth a look

352
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,120
and

353
00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:33,120
To me not everything is worth a look

354
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:39,360
To be everything don't warrant to ooh in and off, but for some reason that's how it be

355
00:26:39,360 --> 00:26:43,520
And the whole thing through Target, it's like we started the little bull

356
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:48,160
Bull's-eye zone, you know, you walk in where it smells like popcorn and a fart

357
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,040
And you stand right there and you go through the little Dealey and it's like, okay, it's a bunch of

358
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,640
$2 trinkets that they try to have that clearance. Yeah, that clearance section right up at the front. Yeah

359
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:04,080
They call it like the bull's-eye zone or whatever and so you got to go through that and then like the first thing that they do

360
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,240
It's like the ladies clothes is always on the left

361
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:11,680
And so then all of a sudden it's like you got to go through all the freaking clothes and then you take a right and then it's like

362
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:16,560
Oh now it's the guys clothes. It's like, well, let's look at shirts for you and I'm just like man

363
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,560
I'm not looking do any

364
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,000
We were here for something

365
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:25,360
I'm looking for little timmy a lego set to buy for his birthday so that we can go to this dang party

366
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,240
You know what I mean? Like I'm not trying to do all this crap

367
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,800
Um, and so I used to not like that

368
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,560
But I think that was more it wasn't because of Target. It was more because the time commitment

369
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,560
It's like Target ain't a

370
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:40,160
A two minute deal. It's not a run-in run out. It's like if you go on a target

371
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:46,720
It's gonna be a little I I do go in a target probably once a week only because they have really good like

372
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,760
Action figures and sometimes that's the only place you can get them. They have like limited

373
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:57,200
Exclusive ones that are really good. Um, but yeah, no, I feel you I understand now

374
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,640
I I feel like and maybe I'm wrong and you can correct me if I'm wrong

375
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:06,160
But I feel like for you like you absolutely hate clothes shopping

376
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,160
I don't know what it was. Maybe as a kid

377
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,800
Something was crazy about clothes shopping, but I feel for you like going to shop for clothes

378
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,200
Like that's the worst thing

379
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:19,440
I could do is take you to go shop for clothes like you would hate that. Yeah. Yeah, so

380
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:26,480
What's uh, what's delving to some trauma? Shall we right here on the throw-down box pocket? No, I'm joking. So pretty

381
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:33,600
So pretty much where that comes from is uh, so I'm a big guy and I was a big guy for a while not horizontal

382
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:40,960
Not horizontally vertically. So I've always been very very freaking tall and the deal is

383
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,840
Um, therefore a little bit

384
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,680
I would probably say from third grade to sixth grade

385
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:54,720
I mean, I was having gross spurts left and right like I do feel bad for my parents for having to spend that much money during the time

386
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,720
But at the same time

387
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:02,960
They also gave me a lot of crap for it of like you're growing again. Oh my gosh, whatever right so clothes shopping

388
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,520
was always really tough because um

389
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:13,440
One is always uncomfortable and two like my parents insisted on like being in the dressing room with me and being like

390
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:18,480
No, try that one on now try that one on and you're like all uncomfortable because you're getting undressed in front of them

391
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:23,680
Right and then not just that but like they're like, oh that looks terrible on you. I'm like I actually like it

392
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,640
It's like no no no that's not gonna work and then it's like this whole fight

393
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:31,120
It's this whole thing and so like it's just it was just kind of difficult and so

394
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,800
Um, I think that's the primary reason it's like man. I don't I don't typically do clothes shopping

395
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,960
Especially like trying on the clothes. I hate that whole process like

396
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:47,520
Something I still get like I don't know why I get like he be jibby's just like going back to a thing and like

397
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,640
Hey, I want to try these on and they're like, yeah, take this little number and go to the little thing

398
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:58,720
I don't know why I hate that whole thing. I'll do it because I've gotten the wrong size way too many times

399
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:05,280
But like doesn't mean that I'm I enjoy the process at all. Yeah, I totally understand. So there was like a uh, like there's

400
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:11,440
Again, not trauma but like bad memories associated with clothes shopping of feeling bad because

401
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,600
Your parents are having to spend money again

402
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:18,640
But then also too like everything you tried on was you you're basically being criticized and

403
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,080
All that stuff. Well, I'm leaving a lot out but pretty much. Yeah

404
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:28,240
Well, uh, you can you can skip over this question and this question may tie into the last question

405
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:32,640
So if you're like, hey, I really don't want to delve into that that is okay. Please tell me but

406
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,000
This question popped up. What is one album or artist that like

407
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,360
Got you through your childhood or you're like, man

408
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,760
This is reminiscent of my childhood and you're like, man, they had a big impact on

409
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,800
Had a big impact on man young GZ

410
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:55,520
I hate saying that but I remember Soul Survivor being one that was like real big

411
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,200
um

412
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,040
and then like

413
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,040
I don't know. It was always that

414
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:07,360
How do you put it like I always felt real hard listening to that sort of thing? So it was like

415
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:13,280
You always felt like whatever you were going through is like, well, I'm a I'm a G and help boost your confidence

416
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,120
You're like, man, I can go. Yeah. I'm a I'm a G and a thug just like

417
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:21,200
Just like young GZ even though I knew what none of that meant. Um

418
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:27,520
In fact, funny side story. I remember going for the summer and visiting my grandparents and um

419
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:34,160
I was listening to music and back then, you know, this is right when skull candy earbuds came out, right?

420
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:38,160
And they were the cheap ones. You remember when they were like the cheapest on the market

421
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,240
They were like pretty good, but they were really cheap

422
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:44,560
I think you're gonna have to explain to people what skull candy what skull candies were so

423
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,680
before the days of having bluetooth headphones, um, when

424
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:56,480
Coarded earphones like over the earphones. That was really the only thing that you had an option to have

425
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,760
And so they started coming out with ear buds the little ones that you put in your ear

426
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:08,480
But they were corded right like so it went all the way to your phone and was corded and uh, there's a brand called skull candy

427
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,880
They're still around. Um, but used to be

428
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,240
They had like a little five ten dollar set that you could buy that were actually really good

429
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,360
Had good bass to it and all that other stuff, right?

430
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:24,640
But the only problem about skull candies was you you turn the louder you turn it up

431
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:31,600
You can definitely hear outside like it. There was no buffer everybody else is hearing what you're listening to like that

432
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,840
just how it is and

433
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:39,600
So I remember my grandfather hearing I was listening to party like a rock star by shop boys

434
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,840
And he was like, do you even know what that means? And I was just like, yeah

435
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,640
He's like explained to me how to party like a rock star and I think I gave him some bs

436
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:53,120
I was like, yeah, go drink beer or something. He's just like, yeah, you don't have a clue

437
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,560
I remember he told me he's like, you don't have a clue what what you're listening to

438
00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:01,920
And I thought to my I was like, yeah, dude, I know exactly what I'm listening. It's like I had no idea

439
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:09,600
I did not I did not know he was he was very right about that. He was like, yeah, you have no idea what they're talking about

440
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,080
um, but yeah, a lot of that music it was just kind of that, um

441
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:19,440
I guess the best way I could put it was like a false bravado of like, oh, yeah, you a tough guy

442
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,600
like I don't know it kind of it kind of helped me through of like

443
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,800
I don't know because there was a lot of stuff that probably would have made me fold

444
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,760
But it was just like a lot of that sort of thing was just like

445
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:37,200
Well, they're going through a hard time or have gone through a hard time and they made it through so it's fine

446
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:41,920
And who said rap music wasn't good for the kids? I think for me and of course, you know, la cray was

447
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,920
La cray has always been like, I don't know what it's been but like

448
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:50,160
Each album like as I've grown up through the years like it's just

449
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,720
Resonated with me with whatever I was going through. So uh la cray

450
00:33:54,720 --> 00:34:02,080
I he doesn't consider himself a christian artist like now because he's like, I don't want the label of people thinking

451
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,360
I'm only gonna just make christian music. I love just making music

452
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,040
But back then he was definitely like, hey, like you like rap

453
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:16,160
You're gonna listen to la cray if you love jesus, right? Like so, um, so it was again, like you said it was like

454
00:34:16,240 --> 00:34:21,600
Hey, like I'm confident. I can I can live for the lord. I could be one of those soldiers for the lord like, you know

455
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:26,640
And so you're listening to it as a sixth grader little white kid from georgia

456
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:32,080
And a lot of it did sound a lot like what was being played like in the mainstream

457
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,600
I mean there were different stuff, but I would say that and then

458
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:41,600
Bone thugs and harmony that music video I tried like anytime I was going through it

459
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:46,240
I'd be watching it and I'd be like yeah every time I go through it now though. I still listen to that song

460
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,320
I got me through a few breakups

461
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:53,600
That song got me through a few breakups. That song gets me through when I'm having a hard time right now sometimes

462
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:58,720
I'll be listening to that song. I'll be like, yeah, like he knows I was like, yeah, I've never done dirty 30, but uh

463
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:06,240
But I know what he's talking about. All I know is I'm like bone thugs and I I guess it's especially I try you just be

464
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,680
Feeling that song like it's like, you know that all of them don't went through it

465
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,560
It's like you feel it

466
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,040
That's that's great. Oh man

467
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:16,080
uh

468
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:20,880
My next question out of all of the times that we had out of all of our stories

469
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:28,960
Uh, if somebody asked you what was the craziest thing that we did collectively, what would you tell me pepper spraying each other in the parking lot?

470
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,080
um, I would also probably say

471
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,880
Swim this one is kind of underrated one when we swam across the lake

472
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:42,960
Um that one time on our boogie boards like that was pretty dangerous and we got really bad sunburn

473
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:47,840
Like really bad like we were in the middle of the lake and boats could have just came and

474
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,880
Uh, just hit us in the face

475
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,280
Uh, yeah the pepper spray one

476
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:59,760
I would say riding the bulls together that that one was pretty like adventurous. That was probably listen for me

477
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,600
That was probably the craziest like telling telling people it's like, yeah

478
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:08,960
We used to we used to rodeo together like that. Like yeah, X lax brownies bacon X lax brownie

479
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:15,840
That was pretty like adventurous. I would say but like that got stopped. So we could have we could have probably faced like some

480
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,120
Some serious repercussions from that

481
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:25,520
Um, if things would have went south, I'm trying. I think that's really it like that's probably maybe the craziest

482
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:31,840
Thing I would say would you kind of say the same thing? I definitely think dry gracing in parking lot

483
00:36:32,240 --> 00:36:35,600
That was we did I mean, I know we did that quite a bit, but I know that was

484
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,520
Fairly dangerous too, but it's some pretty dumb ones. I remember racing

485
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,560
that truck that really bad truck of mine

486
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:44,320
um

487
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:45,520
against

488
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,160
Uh, and if jay me and ridae if you listening

489
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:54,720
Sorry, I against their salara. I remember old j. Rizzle. He was like, he's like, I bet you this car could beat that truck

490
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:59,600
And I was just like, I bet it can't it did because that truck sucked, but I was willing to race it

491
00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:01,120
um

492
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:06,800
And I just remember doing that up and down the parking lot. It's like really and truly you could have hit somebody but follow-up question

493
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:14,720
So, you know, we talked about a little bit of the rodeo stuff. Did you ever think about maybe pursuing that further? Like, okay, maybe I could do this

494
00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:19,360
More or you know, we kind of talked about that like hey

495
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:24,160
We're gonna go out to tech and we're gonna be part of the texas tech rodeo team when we had only rode a

496
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:30,880
Bull like twice no just once in our life. And so I I thought about I was like man like

497
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,760
Probably junior or senior. I was like man, like maybe I could go do this for real

498
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,480
It'd be part of the rodeo team

499
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:44,480
But I I didn't really think too much of it. I was just kind of like, yeah, maybe this will be my way

500
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,920
Uh, we we also had the idea like we're gonna just go work on a cattle ranch

501
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:54,080
Uh, when we move out there without knowing anybody and you know

502
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,360
I now you kind of really have to know someone to work on a cattle ranch

503
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:05,280
But yeah, we were just like, yeah, we're gonna go to school and we're gonna be ranchers on the part time and

504
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:09,360
All that stuff and yeah, that was kind of like a fantasy

505
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:17,600
Dream because that was also going to be one of my questions was was there a goal or like a dream that we had together that was kind of like

506
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:24,640
Unrealistic or we just failed or that was kind of outlandish. I mean being on the rodeo team. Yeah, because

507
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,240
thinking about the tech rodeo team folks, I mean

508
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:35,440
for those of you who don't know about the rodeo realm and you know, a lot of what that entails man

509
00:38:36,720 --> 00:38:38,720
A lot of these kids have been doing it since they were

510
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,640
Little toddlers. They've been practicing, you know

511
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:44,480
um

512
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:49,680
Heck, we didn't even do the little sheep thing as kids, you know, where it was like the sheep ride or whatever

513
00:38:50,240 --> 00:38:55,600
Mutt and bustin it's like we didn't even do that when we were kids. So it's like we were we were definitely behind the curve

514
00:38:56,240 --> 00:38:57,040
um

515
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,040
Because I mean again these kids

516
00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:04,800
Whether I mean the only thing that I think we could have maybe excelled at if we practiced was uh

517
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,000
Like saddle bronc riding

518
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:08,960
um

519
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,240
or

520
00:39:10,240 --> 00:39:16,560
You know, I think we probably could have done bull riding if we like practice consistently and did that but at the same time

521
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:21,120
With where we were at at the time like there's no way you could have joined a collegiate team

522
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:25,680
We might have been able to join the south planes team, but at the same time, I know they were pretty good, too

523
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,040
so

524
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:32,160
Uh, I think that was pretty dang outlandish to think like oh, yeah, we'll just go out there and

525
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:37,120
Be able to potentially do that. Uh, I remember one of the other pipe dreams

526
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:41,440
And I think this is more my idea at the time and you'll be like, yeah

527
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:46,640
Do you remember when we were talking about um, it's like, oh, yeah, I heard that they pay

528
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:54,800
12 dollars a pound for or they paid 12 dollars for I don't remember what it was. It was like per something

529
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,520
for uh rattlesnake skin

530
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,880
And it's just like oh in west texas is full. Yeah, that was your idea

531
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,560
It's like west texas is full of them. So it's like all we got to do is just glove up

532
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:09,760
We'll we'll get us a bunch of rattlesnakes and we'll kill them all we'll skin them and make money

533
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:19,120
It's like, yeah, right dude because like my my thing is sure but do you know, you've lived in Lubbock for

534
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,480
You know this whole entire time since we moved there

535
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:29,120
Um, and I've lived in various parts of texas. I have not met one like supplier or anything that's like

536
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:30,960
Yeah, I'm looking for rattlesnake skin

537
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,800
I have not met anybody or heard of a demand of that at all

538
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:39,680
personally so no, I haven't either. So it's like I definitely think that that was uh

539
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:42,720
Uh a pipe dream there

540
00:40:42,720 --> 00:40:48,640
But I think the main bit was thinking it was definitely the grass is greener on the other side of like

541
00:40:48,720 --> 00:40:52,160
Oh, when we get to texas, there's just going to be all these money making opportunities

542
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:57,280
All right, there's going to be all these things around that we can just go make money. I mean there is but there

543
00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:02,160
It's different or there was it was it's just different. Yeah, it's just it was definitely different

544
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:07,120
Um, one thing I will say man was it was hard to find a job in georgia

545
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:12,800
It's like if you come to texas and can't find a job, that's that's only you it's like there's always somebody hiring in texas

546
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,600
I think one of our pipe dreams

547
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:24,000
was when we talked about this on the podcast is thinking that our uncle steve riding candidate see was gonna make it

548
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:29,760
Oh, yeah, I was actually gonna do something 12 year old 13 year old uh thinking. Oh, yeah

549
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:36,080
Like it's gonna do something and we have t-shirts made but we were bro. We were ready to spread the word

550
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,800
We were ready to spread the word about uncle steve

551
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,760
We did get a pretty good following though on the facebook page. I think the facebook page

552
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:51,280
We got like 90 people 90 100 people. Yeah. Yeah, that was a that was a huge deal and I think the page is still up to

553
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:52,960
um

554
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:58,560
But anyways, uh, we we should bring you know, I don't know if we should do your uncle steve as the candidate

555
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:02,800
But we need to bring another candidate back as a right in for this year. That's what we need to do

556
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,080
We need to find somebody else who's who's gonna be

557
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:14,480
Is there a particular fishing experience that you remember like maybe you caught a big fish or like uh,

558
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,360
You were catching lots of fish uh that you remember

559
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,560
Or is there when we when I went anything like that?

560
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:27,040
Uh deep sea fishing with my with my dad and my brother and my uncle like that's probably the one where I just

561
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,160
Caught the most fish and that was a fun experience

562
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:34,720
But also probably when we went to go fishing at lake alan henry

563
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,360
Um right before a covet. Oh, yeah

564
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:42,080
And we were I was catching like a good bit like the fish were biting that day

565
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,440
But since being in texas it's been really hard

566
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,520
For like me to catch fish. It's been really hard

567
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:54,480
I don't remember. Did we ever really catch that many fish at the lock and dam?

568
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,440
I don't remember catching it. No, we caught one

569
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:03,520
I remember catching a small striper bass, but I mean it was small to the point where I don't even think it was a pound

570
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,800
So it was like, yeah, it wasn't anything that was good

571
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:12,240
But you know, I think we were also kind of dumb back then because I remember going like don't get me wrong

572
00:43:12,240 --> 00:43:14,240
The lock and dam was a very nice place

573
00:43:14,240 --> 00:43:19,920
But I think the reason that nobody else was out there fishing is because they had the the locks open

574
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,920
And we thought like, oh that means fish will be you know, kind of right there

575
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,520
I don't think they could have stayed as far up as we were trying to fish, you know

576
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,760
I mean like that was a strong current

577
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:35,120
I just remember the it would take our lure downstream so fast that we had to reel in pretty quick

578
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,520
Yeah, that's the only time I really remember catching a good amount of fish and then

579
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:44,720
I haven't caught one since Thanksgiving like I caught that one and that was really it

580
00:43:44,720 --> 00:43:47,520
So I gotta I got follow-up questions here. So

581
00:43:48,240 --> 00:43:52,160
something that I've always wanted to do and this is random, but

582
00:43:52,720 --> 00:43:57,840
Um, I've always wanted to go bow fishing in the swamp. Would you want to do that? I would try it?

583
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:03,040
I'm I'm not crazy about the swamp. I'll just be honest with you. I'm not crazy about it

584
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:07,440
But I would try bow fish. Yeah, I I don't know why I've just always thought that it would be

585
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:11,760
Uh, it'd be pretty cool to go and bow fish

586
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:17,520
And then something else I've always wanted to try to do is I wanted to do more saltwater fishing

587
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:22,400
Um, I I do enjoy that when I went down to Florida last year did did some

588
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,000
Shoreline fishing and I mean it was it was really fun

589
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:30,160
And so I've never floundered before like gone around and

590
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,640
Went for flounder, but uh, I want to do that too. So

591
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,880
So, but yeah, I'm

592
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:43,760
You know, we can go to the swamp anytime chris. I know where there's a big one

593
00:44:44,720 --> 00:44:50,320
I know where there's plenty of places to go bow fishing down there. So no, I was I was just curious

594
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:56,080
I don't know why that's always been something I've wanted to do is uh go bow fishing, but it's like well

595
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:01,360
You know, maybe maybe we can do it. All right. This next one. Is there a

596
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:09,680
A fashion trend that you did that you're like, oh my gosh, why did I do that? I hated that like or you're like embarrassed by

597
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:14,000
So going back to the young jizzy thing

598
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:20,640
um, the first one that comes to mind was uh, I can't use that word on the podcast. Um

599
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,520
Where I was trying to be

600
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:25,760
African-american when I was not

601
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,600
I think the term you're uh trying to use is a wankster

602
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:35,360
Wankster there there you go. We can use that wankster for you that don't know is a white gangster

603
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,080
I want to be gangster and almost

604
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:43,360
If you were like a country boy like camo wearing you didn't have that face

605
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,040
but if you were like

606
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:49,360
grew up in in one of those south southern states and that wasn't your thing

607
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:55,680
almost every white boy had a uh had a face. I remember I had the uh the little silver

608
00:45:55,680 --> 00:46:03,040
uh chain chain, you know, I mean and then um, do you remember the dollar sign chain I had at one point?

609
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:10,000
Which somebody broke um anyways, um

610
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,760
But I just remember it was like jorts

611
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:15,200
which

612
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:21,120
Jorts are jean shorts, but they were like three quarter length like you remember they're like really long jorts and

613
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:22,640
um

614
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:27,600
You had to sag a little bit which that was like a big deal not to like man

615
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:33,200
I remember the school. It was like the school my parents like everybody was like, uh, uh, don't don't be doing that and then

616
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,680
and then I remember the uh

617
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:41,920
The shirts were always like it was like looney tunes characters or like cartoon characters

618
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:46,000
cartoon characters or something like that and they were always

619
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:49,200
Super long and baggy was long and baggy was the style

620
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:53,600
And so having that and then having some cool kicks and then having um

621
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,720
Which I was never really big into the shoes believe it or not

622
00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:02,480
Like I kind of surprised because thinking back at that time was like I'm surprised. I didn't really wasn't really big

623
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:06,400
I guess probably because my parents were not going to spend that kind of money on the shoes. So

624
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:10,720
Um, maybe that's why it was but and then the 5950 hat

625
00:47:10,720 --> 00:47:14,960
I was like, yep that that completed the look and I thought I looked so cool

626
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:21,680
And then the other one that I'm just like, oh my gosh was the pack sun skateboarder era with the frosted tips

627
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:25,840
I knew you were gonna say that frosted tips. Yeah, I'm so embarrassed about that

628
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:32,640
This dude I said what well and it started if you remember it started off is uh,

629
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:39,680
Like really blonde like I like dyed my hair blonde blonde and this is before like joe burrow and

630
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:46,000
And all this was popular the only person who had cody rose is like the only person who had done this to this point

631
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:52,560
Uh was m&m. So like everybody I remember that was most people's reaction. Most of it was negative

632
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,480
but um

633
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:57,760
Most everybody's reaction was like who you trying to beat m&m like no

634
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:03,600
um, but actually it was blonder than it was supposed to be because uh,

635
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,600
I remember so I had never dyed my hair was like in the fourth grade, right?

636
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:14,160
You never dyed my hair and so I remember my mom was helping me and she was supposed to like keep the timer or whatever

637
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:15,280
and

638
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:20,480
She like forgot about it and if you don't know it was literally bleached blonde your hair and

639
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:22,320
um,

640
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:23,760
I remember

641
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:29,120
It got to my scalp. I guess and my scalp was just on fire like I'm talking about it was just like on fire

642
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,960
And we had to wash it out real quick, but whenever it got done man

643
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:39,840
It was so blonde that it was almost white like it was like blonde blonde and it was it was real crazy

644
00:48:40,240 --> 00:48:44,400
And then as my hair grew out and I kept getting haircuts then it became blonde tips. That's true

645
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:52,480
I did have the uh, the the wankster phase that was probably more so in like six or seventh grade because I was really trying

646
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,440
I was really trying to fit in with that crowd because like

647
00:48:55,760 --> 00:49:01,760
When I went to my new middle school like the white people didn't want to hang out with me and the african-american community welcomed me

648
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:06,080
With open arms and like yeah, you gonna sit with us. We're gonna be your friend and I was like man

649
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:10,400
So I wanted to be like them and I remember some teachers like after I came out of that phase

650
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:16,080
They were kind of like we're really glad that you came out of that phase and like we know that you wanted to hang around with

651
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,160
That crowd and like being the hip hop crowd

652
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:22,080
But we're glad that you kind of found your own and I was just like, okay

653
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:24,400
Thanks, and then

654
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:29,760
I would say probably the one I'm also embarrassed of and I had these forever were the sideburns

655
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:34,240
Oh man, those are like my glory like I was like, oh, yeah

656
00:49:34,240 --> 00:49:39,600
I got these great sideburns because that was kind of the trend in Georgia like you got to have these nice sideburns

657
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,880
at the time and uh, come on bro like

658
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,640
My thing is I know that might embarrass you now

659
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,040
But the deal was at the time

660
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:53,760
Because even watching back some of our other videos about like like the christmas video and stuff

661
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:56,240
I was just like i'm glad we were dumb and naive because

662
00:49:56,240 --> 00:50:00,400
Those sideburns would have pulled you some chicks in Georgia like more than you were getting

663
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:05,440
If we weren't dumb and naive and actually had game to spit like I mean

664
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,160
I had those things forever and then I never

665
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:12,000
I never shaved them off. I just grew a beard and so that's

666
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:19,520
That was the end of that era. Was there ever a fashion trend that I had or I did that you were like, oh man

667
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,480
I'm embarrassed that I wouldn't say embarrassed, but I was just like bro

668
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:27,200
What are you doing because like you didn't tell me that you were going to do the marine thing and shave off your hair

669
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,680
and so oh, I forgot about that

670
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:30,640
like

671
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:35,520
I just remember you came to church and he just had like this buzz cut and I was like bro. What happened to you

672
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,840
because uh, typically he's got kind of like I mean regular hair

673
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:45,200
But it's kind of a little bit thicker kind of curly hair and then you came in and I mean he was like a buzz buzz cut

674
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,160
I was like what and uh, you he was like, yeah

675
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:52,720
Like I want to go into marines and all this other stuff and I'm like, but why'd you cut your hair off though?

676
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:56,000
I still don't understand that part. Oh, yeah, bro

677
00:50:56,160 --> 00:51:00,960
I buzzed my hair and I I kept it like and especially during my cop phase too

678
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,360
Like I had the I really had the shave head for a long time

679
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:11,680
It was probably from like when I was 16 until after I graduated high school and then I started growing my hair back again

680
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:15,040
That was oh, yeah, you're right on that. That was horrible. That was good

681
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:20,960
I mean, especially that first buzz that you had like that one was like bad, but like I mean it was to the point where

682
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,360
um, like sometimes you have buzz, but it's like, okay the follicles

683
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:30,880
How do I put this like it's you can still tell the color of the follicles. I mean it was like so buzzed. It was almost

684
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,320
I mean it was like

685
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:35,040
Almost bald like you knew his hair was gonna grow back

686
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:39,040
But it was just like god I'll leave like you cut your hair off like all of it

687
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:40,720
you know

688
00:51:40,720 --> 00:51:46,960
It was crazy, but um, I think that was the only one that I really was like, uh, man, whatever

689
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:50,080
I gotta ask you this. What was your reaction? So

690
00:51:50,720 --> 00:51:56,400
I started doing western wear and the whole thing that started with that was um, I remember it was my freshman year

691
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,680
And I went to high school and when I went to high school

692
00:52:00,720 --> 00:52:06,320
Like it was all about the fashion stuff, right? And that was kind of it's funny. Chris and I've talked about this before but

693
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:10,720
The the fashion trends that you followed was also the group that you were in

694
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:17,120
And so like if you were dressing a certain type of way like that was the group that you fell under and if not like

695
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:22,240
Don't dress that way and they would be particular to say things like that. Well

696
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:29,440
So when I first went into high school, um, so like my style in middle school is kind of like my style now

697
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:34,000
It's like shorts t-shirt or shorts and like, you know a shirt or whatever

698
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:35,680
um

699
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,360
Well, this

700
00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:40,560
Like going into high school. I thought well like I'm going into high school

701
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,920
Like I want to step up my game a little bit and so I remember like

702
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:50,960
I'm talking to my folks and was like can I get like some polo short or like polo shirts and like I was trying to go

703
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,400
Real evans if you know folks from Augusta know what I'm talking about

704
00:52:54,720 --> 00:52:57,760
I was trying to go real evans with it and where I was going to high school

705
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:03,440
And so like I had them buy me not like regular shorts, but preppy shorts like

706
00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:08,480
Like khaki shorts, you know, I'm talking about like how the prep style was. Yeah, there you go

707
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:14,880
Um, the only thing I was missing was like coast of sunglasses and I want to fit, you know in with that stereotype

708
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:22,080
And I remember like just going through school for a little bit and just not fitting it anywhere because the people

709
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,480
There's a lot of people. I didn't like that group of people

710
00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:29,600
That were my friends in middle school, but now they don't want nothing to do with these because they're like, oh

711
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:34,000
You're trying to be a preppy. Well, the preppies didn't like me. So I was like, okay. Well, you kind of don't have a group

712
00:53:34,240 --> 00:53:39,040
It's funny. You were talking about the african-american community accepting you they accepted me too

713
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,720
That's where I was sitting at the lunch table the majority of the time and whatnot

714
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,640
but after a while I remember I went the pbr the

715
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:51,600
the bull riding folks came to town and um

716
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,400
When they came to town it was like

717
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:59,120
I mean, what do you do when you go to a rodeo you get your best Western wear on you go

718
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:04,560
And I remember like looking at myself in the mirror and I was like, you know what I look pretty darn good in this stuff

719
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:09,120
I'm just like, you know, and like I had never felt confident clothing like that before

720
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:13,520
And so I was just like, you know what like I look pretty pretty darn good like this

721
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:18,320
Um, you know, and I really like the lifestyle and everything like that and of course at the time

722
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:23,920
You know, we thought we were going to Texas going to Texas tech going to be ranchers and do all this other stuff, right?

723
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:25,920
so it's like, okay

724
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,240
Maybe western wears it

725
00:54:28,240 --> 00:54:30,800
And it's just funny because thinking about the first

726
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:35,120
styles of western wear that started off with compared to

727
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:40,160
What it was it was like didn't really know what we were doing very rudimentary

728
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:44,080
But like I just remember telling you like yeah, this is how I'm going to dress from here on in

729
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:45,360
What was your thoughts when that happened?

730
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:50,720
My thoughts were because again, you know that I love Texas for some reason I've always just like man

731
00:54:50,720 --> 00:54:57,040
I love Texas and thought Texas was cool and like I always like secretly wanted to wear the cowboy hats and all that stuff

732
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:02,480
Like that's just something I love and when you did that I like I was I kind of like

733
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:09,440
Respected you a lot more because I was like man like and I almost kind of like felt bad for me because I was like man

734
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:12,640
I wish I had the courage to have done that sooner, you know

735
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:17,760
And I was like man like and it wasn't that I was like, oh, yeah, he's doing it. So I'm gonna do it

736
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:23,840
I'm like man. I really like wearing western wear stuff too. Like I love the cowboy hats and the boots and I love Texas

737
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:29,600
So that's where I'm gonna do it too. And so I didn't never think like man. That's weird or why is he doing that?

738
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:34,240
I was like, you know what like I I think I respected you a lot more for it

739
00:55:34,240 --> 00:55:39,680
Well, it's interesting is your style and my style was totally different like my style at the very in that time

740
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:43,920
So the best way I can describe your style at the time was

741
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:48,480
Walker Texas Ranger because that's what I wanted man. I wanted to be

742
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,280
Ranger that's all it was

743
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:55,200
90s. It's like it's like he had the he had the black

744
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:58,560
There you go

745
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:03,760
Had the black hat. It was always the black pants with the yeah, man. It was it was crazy

746
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:08,000
Funny stuff, man. It all sorts of air is right. I mean

747
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:14,240
You go throw some yeah, I still wear my boots and I'll still wear my cowboy hat like on a really really nice

748
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,760
Occasion, but it's maybe once or twice a year like

749
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:22,560
I would rather I will still wear my cowboy boots like in the fall all the time

750
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:28,720
But I'll wear a baseball hat and a vest and a nice shirt versus a cowboy hat. I'll wear a cowboy hat sometimes

751
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:32,480
I mean every year we go to the rodeo. So like I'll wear it then and then

752
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:37,200
Um, so my company has I don't know why every time they

753
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:42,880
Well, I do know why every time they entertain somebody from up north or the northeast or whatever that somewhere

754
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,520
That's not Texas. They always want me to

755
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,560
I have this one particular suit and I have

756
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:51,440
like

757
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:55,600
dressier cowboy stuff like I've got my dress boots. I've got this suit and

758
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,520
And I've got this really nice hat and they always want me to come out in that

759
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:05,920
And they always order barbecue and do all this other stuff. They just try to put on a Texas show, I guess, you know

760
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:10,160
And so it's like sometimes I'll have to try to hang kill you from that episode

761
00:57:10,720 --> 00:57:13,200
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly

762
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:18,160
Now that's exactly what they do and um, oh trust me. I know how to play the part

763
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:22,400
I uh, I sold it boot corral before. No, I don't think I haven't sold in western wear before

764
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:26,720
It's just a little different of a venue. Okay. Uh, this is kind of a more lighthearted question

765
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:32,080
If we were in a buddy cop movie, which one of us do you think would be the good cop?

766
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:40,560
And who do you think would be the bad? Oh man, I think that what's hard is uh, I think that would alternate time by time because like I'm

767
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,000
There are some times where I'm like, okay, listen

768
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:46,400
I'm on your side on this one

769
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:50,960
And I you know, I want to do that whole thing and I could see you'd be like you're gonna tell me the answer right now

770
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:58,320
I could totally see that and then I could also see the reverse. It's like and listen, you know, and like I could see you

771
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,440
In it being right the opposite. So

772
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:05,520
I I don't know man. I think you would alternate like knowing our friendship

773
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:10,000
It would probably be like we're about to go into it's like, okay, you good cop. I'm back. Okay, good

774
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:14,400
If we just figured out right beforehand and just screw with them. I don't know

775
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:17,760
That's like the interesting thing about our friendship is like over

776
00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:23,680
Over time it has been that because there have been times where like I'm ready to like go in guns of blazing

777
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:25,600
You're like, hey, hey, hey like cool down, bro

778
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:31,760
Like it's okay and I'm like what like what I've seen you pop off like at the mouth like off the handle before

779
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,800
Why are you not like ready to go in guns of blazing?

780
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:37,360
It's always like uh

781
00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:39,920
Again, there'd be times where it's like a like we we

782
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:45,840
Let's let's cool down a little bit and then the other times it'll flip. So that's an interesting question

783
00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:51,040
Yeah, I think I would agree. I think it would be funny though. You want to talk about like this is why we could never be in this

784
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:53,280
in one of those jobs or

785
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:56,240
b cops or anything like together or anything like that because

786
00:58:56,720 --> 00:59:00,400
um, no doubt in my mind, we would get bored and screw with people

787
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,120
I have no doubt in my mind

788
00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:04,400
um

789
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:06,960
Or maybe that's the teenage mind of myself

790
00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:10,160
I'm thinking about I I don't know if you're in that position and

791
00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:13,920
Have that much responsibility who knows but at the same time

792
00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:18,240
I'm just like I I think I would have a little bit too much fun going into an interrogation room being like

793
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:20,480
All right, I'm the bad cop this time. All right, perfect

794
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:23,760
And not about the anyways

795
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:26,320
My next question here

796
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:32,160
Is there something that you haven't done just yet that you're like, you know what?

797
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:34,960
2025

798
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,840
Is going to be the year for that. I know there were some things in 2024

799
00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:42,400
You had goals, but have you thought about any goals for 2025 of like, you know what I haven't done that

800
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:46,640
Yes, skydiving is definitely one of those ones that I'm serious about. I think

801
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:48,000
um

802
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,960
2024 that was going to be the thing but then

803
00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:54,560
We decided we were going to go on the cruise and then it was just

804
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:58,880
This again the beginning of the year what I if I knew now what I

805
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:04,000
Knew at the beginning of the year. No, no, no if I knew at the beginning of the year what I know now

806
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:05,600
Yeah, strike that reverse it

807
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:09,760
I think I would have planned the year a whole lot different because this year has just been an

808
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:15,120
Unexpected year to be honest. I think for both of us of like, oh, I didn't know that was going to happen

809
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:19,280
Oh, I did not foresee that coming like I didn't know this was going to be a thing

810
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:22,800
And so I I think if I would have known

811
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:26,640
Like nothing bad or tragic or anything, but I think if I would have known

812
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:34,320
Like how this year was going to turn out. I would have been like, oh, yeah, like I definitely would have done skydiving probably this year

813
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:38,400
Um, and again, I don't regret how this year is turning out by no means

814
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:42,400
I'm still going I've planned the things and it's been it's turned into a really great year

815
01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:47,680
But I think 2025 is like for sure like I want to do that

816
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:49,280
um

817
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:51,760
Like for real skydiving there

818
01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:56,480
There is a thing and again with like family dynamics. You can't just go out and like

819
01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:58,480
spend

820
01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,480
frivolously, right? But I do

821
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:03,200
Hope that one day I do get to sit like

822
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:08,080
And the first row at a wwe show, but that's like 600 bucks a seat

823
01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:12,800
And so that's kind of one that's like, okay, you're gonna have to save up for that. Um

824
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:17,920
I do want 2025 though. I'm gonna say it right now

825
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:20,720
um for us

826
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:25,840
And again, we don't know what next year holds, but 2025 I want to for sure for sure for sure

827
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:30,560
Me you and our wives all go on a vacation together like

828
01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:37,840
That's that is something I'm like, yeah 2025 that's that's the goal is like for all four of us to go on a vacation together

829
01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:38,960
Um

830
01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:44,960
But other than that nothing crazy. What about you man? I want to I want to try to take a trip of some sort

831
01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:50,160
Um, I'm not sure. I'm not sure what but same with you. Definitely want to take a trip together

832
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:55,920
But I want to take a trip with with my wife too. I just don't know what or where

833
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:57,520
Um

834
01:01:57,520 --> 01:01:59,520
I think the biggest thing for me

835
01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,520
is um

836
01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:06,560
I don't know. I'm like here. I don't know if it's next year, but I want to go to Europe

837
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:09,680
Like I don't know. That's one of my biggest things just

838
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:12,480
Like and even if that's the uk

839
01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:16,320
I'm okay with that, but same time. It's just

840
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:21,920
You know anyway, like we'll find somewhere in Europe to go to I think and make that happen

841
01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:27,920
Potentially next year. If not, like I'm trying to get this stuff in before uh before we have kids

842
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:32,960
That's how I feel. It's like I'm trying to get this done before we because once you have kids like your whole

843
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:36,720
Priorities changing you're like yep those trips that you wanted to go on like

844
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:42,480
Gotta be like even if you have the money to do it. It's like okay now. We've got to think about the time like right

845
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:47,680
And it's like you gotta gotta think about the time and you know, when are they off from school?

846
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:53,280
Like could we drop them off with grandma and grandpa? Like how's that all gonna work out? So it's yeah for sure

847
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:59,520
Yeah, for sure next question. What is a viral meme or a youtube video that you just like

848
01:02:59,920 --> 01:03:05,600
Enjoy and you constantly go back to it and watch it and every time you watch it it still makes you laugh

849
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:09,920
man, I've got a I've got a a few they're all videos actually so

850
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:17,280
No, no memes really but all videos one of them we share and I already know this it's the I'm not gay no more

851
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:19,360
I am delivered video. Yep

852
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:25,120
I'll be watching that one and that's one that like I revisit every now and then it's weird. It's like, you know what?

853
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:27,200
I'm gonna watch that video today

854
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:28,320
um

855
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:34,480
There's another one out there and I really don't know why but it's called techno Viking

856
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:38,880
I don't know if you've ever seen that but it's it's from the early 2000s

857
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:42,000
it was a one of the very early viral videos and

858
01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:48,400
There's nothing much to it, but I I don't know why I it's because there's so much stuff happening in the scene

859
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:50,000
um

860
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:55,760
But it's pretty much all these people like, you know, there's they're having a street party essentially and

861
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,360
And pretty much it doesn't look like anything's happening

862
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:06,640
Then one guy kind of runs into this gal like kind of stumbles into her and then this big

863
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:12,960
Like Viking looking fellow grabs him like points and points to like to

864
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:18,800
The truck or whatever that's forward and sits down and he became a meme for a while because they like

865
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:22,800
It would say like techno Viking wants you to whatever and it's like but

866
01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:26,720
It would be like him pointing but that whole entire video

867
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:34,240
Like he pointed told that guy to sit down and then like the truck or whatever that's playing the music starts going forward

868
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:41,920
And then this rando like if you're watching the video, you're like, where the heck did this guy come from this random guy walks up to the Viking fellow

869
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:45,840
And just like hands him a bottle of water upside down the guy

870
01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:50,400
Drinking like the Viking guy drinks the water hands it back to him and just starts like

871
01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:53,200
dancing like crazy

872
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:56,480
I don't know. It's like I don't know why I like that video

873
01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:59,120
But it's just like so much happened in such a little amount of time

874
01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:03,120
You're like what the heck and you're like still no matter how many times I'll watch that video

875
01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:08,960
I'm still trying to piece together like where did that water bottle guy come from and I guess he knew the Viking fellow because like

876
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:14,160
He just like handed him a water didn't pay for it or anything. Just like handed the water back to him

877
01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:17,600
So I guess he knew him and then like I don't know there's like

878
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:22,320
I don't know if you have any of those videos where you just like watch it sometime and you're just like I'm kind of

879
01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:27,120
I want to know the context and I don't know the context, but it's just kind of odd

880
01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:33,520
I guess I don't know. I'm not sure for me. It's the it's the I'm not getting no more. I'm delivered

881
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:35,920
That one makes me laugh

882
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:39,840
They're certain like vines that I go back to that make me laugh

883
01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:48,880
Uh the king Curtis one from wife swap. That's like uh, that's a pretty that's a pretty legendary one for me

884
01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:51,520
um

885
01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:55,280
I don't know. I don't think there's really any other ones that I'm like

886
01:05:55,280 --> 01:06:00,320
Can we get king Curtis on the podcast like adult king Curtis on the podcast? I don't know how he is

887
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:03,360
Maybe he's like mellowed out. I don't know. Maybe we can

888
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:07,520
Yeah, king Curtis if you're listening we'll watch you on the podcast. Yeah, come on the podcast

889
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:10,320
Tell us if you still want uh chicken nuggets

890
01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:15,600
You still like your chicken nuggets and if they're still if bacon's still been good to you all these years

891
01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:17,360
um

892
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:18,880
but yeah, um

893
01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:20,880
my next question

894
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:23,120
And this one's kind of random

895
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:25,600
like all of them have been but

896
01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:27,360
Would you rather

897
01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:33,680
Hike mount everest to like with a team of people you're not by yourself. Of course, you got your chirpas and all this other stuff

898
01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:39,920
Like full danger could die all this other stuff or would you navigate across the Atlantic ocean?

899
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:46,960
Uh in a boat like you have to navigate the boat across the Atlantic. I think I would probably pick navigating the

900
01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:53,760
uh, Atlantic because again mount everest like there's a there's a pretty good chance that you're gonna die

901
01:06:53,760 --> 01:07:00,400
Like most people don't make it climbing up there and to me like I'm okay if I don't climb mount everest like

902
01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:01,280
I'm not okay

903
01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:06,560
But if I'm in a boat and I have like supplies and stuff like that would be cool like of course

904
01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:10,800
You know my wife and you guys came like that'd be cool to just navigate but

905
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:16,000
Other than that. Yeah. No mount everest is not like I don't care about it

906
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:23,200
Or you're not near not quite a mountain climber kind of like what about, you know, people go and climb like Mount Rainier and

907
01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:28,800
Washington things like that. I know you like hiking. Would you ever want to climb a mountain say?

908
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:33,680
It's not as dangerous as like everest or you know, but still a sizable mountain, right?

909
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:38,800
Yeah, I would try it for sure. I think that would be an adventure to try for sure. Yeah, absolutely

910
01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:44,880
Okay. Yeah, I was just curious because it's like, um, you know, I've always had a weird thing of like climbing mount everest

911
01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:48,320
But at the same time I yeah, I don't want to do the risk and of course

912
01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:52,320
There's only like a three week window to where you can actually climb it

913
01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:56,160
Where the weather is actually permissible and it's still kind of not

914
01:07:56,720 --> 01:07:58,240
um, so

915
01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:04,560
Yeah, I don't know if I would do that but see it the Atlantic makes me wonder or worry because of being man storms

916
01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:09,840
In the ocean can be pretty gnarly too. So I got two more questions last two for me

917
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:16,640
Uh, this one is again a more fun question. If me and you were to host a game show, what game show would we host?

918
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:22,240
Do you think I don't know why my mind would you want to family feud? I don't know why I don't know why family feud would be

919
01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:26,080
Would be good. That's what I was thinking. I was like family feud

920
01:08:27,440 --> 01:08:30,320
I don't know. Can I replace pat sage act now that he's

921
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:35,840
Willow fortune. I was like, you know, it's funny about pat sage act man

922
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:40,160
If you actually watch him back and like listen to him. He's kind of yeah, well, he kind of low

923
01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:46,400
He talks crap about people like to their face. He does. He's a jerk and he's a pervert. I'm telling you

924
01:08:46,480 --> 01:08:49,600
I've been saying that for years. He's a pervert. Yeah, it's just like man

925
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:56,240
Because you'll be watching it. Yeah, he just be he just be ripping some people. It's it's and so I could definitely do that job

926
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:58,800
um, one other one that I

927
01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:04,080
I don't I could I could do it, but it's not like my top choice would be prices, right?

928
01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:07,360
I could probably do prices, right? Yeah, I could probably do prices, right?

929
01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:11,520
I'm not crazy about that one either though. The only thing that I would not like as a host is

930
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:16,560
Prices, right? You I mean pretty much any game show you always have to be really high energy and things

931
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:20,480
But prices, right? I feel like it's even more and not just that but you know

932
01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:24,640
You call people down they screaming and then it's like, okay

933
01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:30,880
Whoever wins the you know the deal to come on stage now. They're running up there screaming and hugging you and they're screaming in your ear

934
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:35,360
And now you're having a talk in front of America still while she's like screaming in your ear. It's like, yeah

935
01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:40,240
I don't know if I would enjoy that too much like I I think I that would get pretty old

936
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,920
After all, I think me and you could do a great job of hosting

937
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:47,200
Like marie even though that's not a game show

938
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:51,040
Or hosting like one of those divorce court shows bro

939
01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:57,680
Like we could be the two judges up there like I would be serious and I would be roasting the people that are like come on now

940
01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:02,400
Like you stepping out like come on now and you ain't seeing that I would oh, yeah me too

941
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:07,280
I guess I could see it be stuff like that. Um, and then I think we should you know

942
01:10:08,080 --> 01:10:12,240
We have a few game show ideas of our own that maybe trash can'll put out one of these days

943
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:14,560
um secret secret

944
01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:19,120
All right, um

945
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:25,040
All right, here's my next question. So we wanted to go to tech, right? Um

946
01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:32,320
Um, where is there really any other colleges that you were like, yeah, I know that ended up doing like south plains for a little bit

947
01:10:32,480 --> 01:10:38,240
I know back in august that there was possibility, but was there really any other schools that were out there for you?

948
01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:42,400
I told you this. I think it was the last one or maybe the time before but

949
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:45,200
Texas state was a serious option for me

950
01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:49,920
And sam houston state was yeah, you did was also a serious option for me

951
01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:55,360
Just because I wanted to go into criminal justice and in texas and that was like a serious one for me

952
01:10:55,440 --> 01:10:58,400
I looked into a and m. I looked into the University of texas

953
01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:03,680
um, I looked into a couple others, but those were just kind of meh and so

954
01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:07,920
Just a little backstory the girl I was dating at the time

955
01:11:08,480 --> 01:11:14,080
Uh, again, you're a senior. So this is my first real girlfriend and I thought like yeah, we're gonna be in love

956
01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:15,840
And so she was a year younger than me

957
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:21,440
So she was going to be a senior while I was going to go to college and again, I thought we were going to be together forever

958
01:11:21,440 --> 01:11:26,560
Right. So during that time I was like, you know, if I move to texas, maybe I need to stay in Georgia

959
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:31,280
And I remember like I started settling like kept going down the list and was like, okay

960
01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:37,440
Well, maybe I go to you know, University of Georgia. That's not so bad or maybe I go to Georgia southern

961
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:40,000
Like that's only a couple hours away. That's not so bad

962
01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:45,280
And then I was like, well, maybe I go to Georgia state in Atlanta like that's not so bad either

963
01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:50,640
But then I was like, well, maybe I should just stay in the same town and I'll just leave with my parents and

964
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:54,880
I remember having a conversation with my dad about being like, hey dad like

965
01:11:55,440 --> 01:12:02,320
Maybe I should just stay and go to Augusta state the community college and I remember my dad supporting me and just

966
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:06,800
Asking me why and I gave him some reason that wasn't my girlfriend

967
01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:09,920
But I was just like, okay, like, you know

968
01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:13,440
That's okay. And he said, okay, like, you know, I'll support you

969
01:12:13,440 --> 01:12:17,280
You want to go to Augusta state? And I remember getting into Augusta state

970
01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:22,800
But then I remember that girlfriend breaking up with me and that's when like that really put me in drive

971
01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:25,440
And I was like, you know what like I'm gonna go move to Texas

972
01:12:25,440 --> 01:12:29,840
I'm gonna do what I said I was gonna do like I'm gonna go to Texas tech and I'm gonna live a

973
01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:34,560
Good life and I'm gonna find me a nice Texas girl and I'm gonna show her and so I

974
01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:39,120
accepted I got accepted into tech and I almost missed the deadline, but

975
01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:42,160
Praise god, I made it. Yeah heck yeah

976
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:45,600
Um, well since we kind of we talked about that a little bit last week

977
01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:48,480
So I'm gonna do a bonus question. This has nothing to do with anything

978
01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:55,440
Would you rather take a million dollars right now or 25,000 dollars a month for the rest of your life?

979
01:12:55,440 --> 01:13:00,640
Obviously 25,000 dollars a month for the rest of my life. I think there's I think there's merit to both

980
01:13:00,880 --> 01:13:02,880
Like I to me

981
01:13:03,440 --> 01:13:09,360
I don't know it'd be hard for me not to take the million now because in my mind and maybe I'm too optimistic

982
01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:12,800
But I'm like I feel like I could take that money and multiply it

983
01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:17,280
I mean you can take the 25 and multiply it too, but I'm like a million

984
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:24,800
It would take how many months, you know with 25,000 to get to that million. It's like or I can get that million now and

985
01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:30,960
Double it triple it and have all of that. So I don't know man. There's some merit to me

986
01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:34,720
I'd be I'd be a serious thing that I'd be having to think about real hard

987
01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:40,800
I don't trust myself to not spend the million dollars. So I I know it would be better for me to

988
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:47,200
Have that and 25,000 dollar increments and that's definitely something I could like look forward to right?

989
01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:52,400
I'd be like, oh, like I'm gonna get another 25,000. How am I going to use this 25,000 this month?

990
01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:56,960
Am I going to save it? Am I going to invest it? So for me that would maybe be a little bit more

991
01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:02,720
Beneficial, but if you're like, hey, I take the million like you know yourself better. So different strokes for different

992
01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:05,440
Yeah, like I said, I don't know if I'm just hopelessly optimistic

993
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:10,080
It's like take the money. I'll multiply it and then all of a sudden you spin it. Oh, I don't know

994
01:14:10,480 --> 01:14:15,200
They could be that cool. And this is my last question and we've kind of talked about this off the podcast

995
01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:23,680
But for our podcast listeners, how do you you see our friendship or what would you like our friendship to be like when we're 80 years old?

996
01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:27,120
The first thing that came to my mind is talking mess about people

997
01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:31,440
I mean kind of already do but what I'm saying is uh

998
01:14:31,440 --> 01:14:38,720
Like older people what's great is you can say more things and get away with it. And so like I'm I'm good with being

999
01:14:39,440 --> 01:14:40,400
like

1000
01:14:40,400 --> 01:14:44,320
Two old guys that like we're fun to be around but we'll also roast you too

1001
01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,040
and then um

1002
01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:49,520
It's just like but

1003
01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:51,840
I know you get this sometimes but something

1004
01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:59,280
That's going to be interesting about us is I get told all the time. It's like man. You're only you're only 29 years old and you've lived

1005
01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:00,960
already

1006
01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:04,480
crazy life with all sorts of stuff that's happened and you know

1007
01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:06,800
um

1008
01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:09,920
Which is very true and it's just like by the time we get to be 80

1009
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:16,720
The both of us are going to have some pretty crazy outlander stuff and some twists and turns and so

1010
01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:22,000
Whether it be other people whether it be our family like kids grandkids, whatever

1011
01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:25,360
um, you know, it's going to be one of those things like

1012
01:15:25,360 --> 01:15:31,440
Uh, for instance, what's what's interesting is can you can you believe this? We're going to be the guys, right?

1013
01:15:31,440 --> 01:15:37,920
It's like when your grandpa or your great grandpa was in Georgia. He went to a former school that was

1014
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:42,240
uh segregated school like columbia middle school, you know, it's like that

1015
01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:47,760
Not while he was going there, but it used to be segregated like 20 years before he went there

1016
01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:52,720
And it's just like really wow and then there's like a bunch of things that we're going to be coming across

1017
01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:58,400
It's going to be like it's going to be like how we look at their generation and go wow you you live through that

1018
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:03,680
Wow, you had some sort of connection with that. I can't believe that that's and that was just a part of your life

1019
01:16:04,480 --> 01:16:09,520
And we're going to have a lot of those tales. So I think that's going to yeah, I think definitely telling the worst stories

1020
01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:14,320
I think that'd be great. I I hope that both of us are at that age in good mobility

1021
01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:16,400
and we're able to

1022
01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:20,480
Just go fishing when we want just being able to do what we want

1023
01:16:20,480 --> 01:16:24,080
But I really also hope that maybe we could

1024
01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:32,160
Find some some friends or maybe some guys that are a little bit younger and kind of like share our knowledge and wisdom

1025
01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:35,120
And impart that into them and it's like hey look like we've been

1026
01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:40,960
Friends for this amount of years and I know you're going through this and so let me help you out

1027
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:46,480
So I hope my prayer for at least me is that I can be that guy where they're like man

1028
01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:48,960
Like how'd you get through this and I can help other

1029
01:16:48,960 --> 01:16:50,960
people

1030
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:57,600
Just kind of tell my war stories again, like you said talking mess and just getting to be able to enjoy life and

1031
01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:00,960
Not have to really have too many responsibilities and

1032
01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:02,880
Just enjoy

1033
01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:08,320
Being alive or time commitments. Not too many time commitments. Hopefully so that'd be good
