What up? What up?
What up?
I don't know.
The main question I got was is he going to show up? Oh?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I mean there was no lesson to be taught. It was taught the last time we did this, and so I only teach the lesson once and then if I have to teach it again later, I will. But no, you know, you learned your lesson and we're back.
I learned no lesson because I said I got mad at you.
There you go, the lesson, that's the lesson.
No, but you did show up, and people would like to know why you did not show up. Was that because of the lesson?
Yeah, the lesson I had to teach you a lesson. I told you you play with fire, you're going to get burned. And you played with fire and decided to do a little banning on something, and so you know what, you want to ban me? Guess what? Can't see me because I won't be here.
Okay, well he's here. He did do the best Bits last time, he just didn't. He did a no show when we had agreed to be here.
Before the show. Yeah, so we agreed to be here at like three thirty, and I said, yeah, yeah, I'll be there.
Ha.
Guess what I was doing in my bed? I wasn't snoring, so I can't like.
It was like a silent Yeah.
I was like, I can't really do what I was doing because I was I don't snore. So yeah, that's it.
Okay, Well, we do have some wild stuff that happened this week. We are, so we're doing best Bits a little bit differently Lunchbox. I just share the bits up front and then you and I just talk for a little bit. Okay, I'm so confused.
So do we do we do the question one still or no?
Oh yeah, this is the first one. We're in part one right now.
Okay, so we do this and then it just done a little bit different. Why why did you change.
Just you know, trying to keep you guys your time with me a little bit less than the hours and hours apparently you all have spent with me.
Oh okay, yeah, sure, I'm confused. On so we're not going to talk about the bits, but we're going to talk about talking.
We're going to talk about life.
Okay, and then we're gonna do questions, which is talking about life. Yeah, got it all right?
So the bits is week we had Brenda Lee in studio, which is apparently me from the future.
I had no idea who that lady was.
She's amazing, like, oh yeah, she was great. You don't know rocking around the Christmas tree.
You could have paid me ten thousand dollars to tell you who's sang that, and I would have said, I have no idea it did not know that that's who that was. And when we were like on the schedule, was like Britada Lee coming in, I'm like, is this some new artist? And then she watched in the studio, I was like, she's definitely not new.
Nope, she's been around a long time and she had a lot of stories to share. So that was an interview with her that was.
She has stories.
I don't remembering about Patsy Kleine George Jones.
Oh you were probably I guess I wouldn't. I guess I missed that part. I just know she came in and she was really short, and she talked about singing a song.
Yeah, we were geting a picture together and we look alike.
We did her and I did. Oh, I didn't take a picture with her. All right, okay, is that someone like that? You knew before she walked in the studio?
I did, Yes, I did know who Brinda Lee was.
Oh all right, okay did do most people know who that is? Yes, I'm gonna if you listen.
To any classic country, yeah you know who she was.
Oh so she did country music too.
Yeah, Rock and Around was just the song that went like.
Big but she almost said viral.
Well yes, but Viral wasn't big that time, but she was big in classic country.
Oh.
I thought during the Patsy Cline, George Jones, little Richard era.
I thought she just did that Christmas song.
Oh boy, Okay, I got a text from the country artist that happened this week, and I shared an update.
Yeah, we don't need to.
Talk about it.
No, no, we're not going to talk about it. I'm just gonna say that. Yeah, I mean okay.
Yeah, I celebrated her fortieth birthday.
Yes, she did. Happy fortieth birthday to my wife.
Yeah you did not, Jill came in.
I mean, I didn't say happy birthday to my wife. I did say happy birthday in my.
I said she celebrated her birthday and I said, you.
Did not, Uh No, I was there with her when we celebrated, so I would say that she celebrated.
Okay, Jelly rolls in the studio, which is always awesome, always great.
Let me tell you, he's a good, good, good dude. Like he's awesome, Like it's crazy, crazy fun to have him in the studio.
Yeah, he's a great interview and a great guy. We did a draft of bands and artists with numbers in their name, and then we.
Got I'd say that was a tough draft.
That was a really tough draft. You know, I got kicked out.
So which you were surprised by. I know because you after the draft you were walking around with your freaking head held high, chest puffed out going heah.
Yeah you guys, you guys point in time, did I ever puff out my chest?
Yeah? And you were like, you guys messed up not taking nineteen seventy five, And I was like, who No.
I confirmed with Lauren, who's our resident and swifty, that she is a swift. He still likes nineteen seventy five She's like, yes, I love that.
I know because during the draft we told you the Swifties we're going to be mad at you, and you were like, no way, Swifties love nineteen seventy five too, And I mean we were having an argument that I had no idea about because I was like, man, does it really matter like this? I just want to did this? No, I really thought it would the Swifties really stop listening to a band because Taylor's not dating the dude anymore.
Possibly that depending how bad it is. And he the lead singer, is a bit controversial in other ways too, so that's.
Oh really, Yeah, I didn't know that.
Yeah, the more you.
Know, the more you know. Did that sound effect here?
I don't have that?
Okay? Cool.
The Christmas gift exchange drawing happened, so we all found out who we are giving gifts for.
Yep, I got to give one to Abby. Let me tell you, I've got some ideas, but I don't know if I can fit him in the studio.
Oh boy, And we got an update from Arkansas Keith. He called in to share how retirement's going.
So I think about retirements.
You don't have a four oh one k so you got to figure that out for I.
Mean, just because you don't have a four to one K doesn't mean you can't retire, right, Yes, but.
You have to have money saved elsewhere, or you have to have investments elsewhere. Otherwise what money are you going to live off of if you don't work anymore?
Well, you get paid while you're chilling?
Oh no, no, no, do you like a lot of big check like a lot of companies.
Like my grandpa, he worked for Santa Fe Railroad and then he retired and he kept getting money. So I assume I was Santa Fe Railroad paying him.
Probably because he had stocks and things invested in that company, because the company probably gave it to him.
So yes, So do I have stock in this company?
No? Not unless you did a four oh one k.
Oh, well, I mean I am, or if.
You negotiated it in your contract.
No. Yeah, I just thought maybe he got it. I don't know what you thought.
You just like got it naturally because you existed in the world, I guess.
Because grandpa never said anything about that. I don't know.
Yeah. So no, you have to have savings elsewhere the money or survive off and like that. Social Security checkin ain't nothing, so you got to make sure you got some savings and souf.
So then if it ain't nothing, how come? I mean over my lifetime, I pay a lot to that Social Security and then it's nothing when I get done.
Each year it keeps dwindling down a little bit based on the news reports and everything that I've seen.
Oh, why's your problem is watching the news?
Well, I mean you got to stay informed about especially if it involves your retirement.
Yeah, I'll worry about that when it gets here.
All right, Well, what's your We're gonna talk about holidays a little bit. What's your favorite Christmas movie to watch every year?
Oh? A Christmas Story is just so good?
Is that the one with Ralfie?
Yes, Ralphie, Ralphie the Lamp. I mean everything about it is so Yeah, it's so fantastic. And I know the new generation ELF and yeah, ELF is really good. Elf is funny. And I thought about this other day. Can I is it time to show my kids elf?
Oh?
Yeah, like I have no idea when you know what I mean? Like, I want to show them home alone too, not home alone too, but also home alone. Yeah, but I don't know them, but I don't know if that would scare them about the people breaking in the house, and.
Like, when did you watch Home Alone?
Uh, when I was a kid. Yeah, so I don't know how old I was. I wouldn't. I probably wasn't three, but I mean I was watching.
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I definitely think you can get away with Elf. Elf would there's nothing really super scary about Elf. Homelone. You may have to wait a couple of years for them to actually get it. Yeah, but Elf, I think they would get because I was thinking.
About like the iron hitting that guy in the face, Like that's funny, Like the kids would like that, But I don't like Elf. Would they pay attention to Elf? Or would they be bored?
Because they love a giant Elf.
He's a giant Elf, that's true. They they love the Grinch.
Oh, okay, the cartoon one or the original?
Oh yeah, the cartoon. The other one's kind of creepy.
Do you think them one with Jim Carrey's creepy for a three year old?
Yeah, it's creepy.
Oh, just because like the Grinch is like real life.
Yeah, and it's dark and it's just kind of sang.
I've never thought of the Grench creepy. That's my movie. That's the one that I always have to watch every years. That Jim Carrey.
Christmas. Okay, yeah, we watched the cartoon. They can wear the crap out of that one though.
That is good. And by the way, you were saying, like this generation with Elf Elf came out in two thousand and three. It's twenty years old.
Yeah, that's what I mean. Twenty year old's like this.
I know. I'm just saying like that. It was funny how you said it, and it was like it's been out for twenty years. Oh, it's not necessarily a new movie.
No, No, I didn't say new. I meant like this generation.
I don't know that gin X would claim that movie as their generation. I think millennials would more.
Ah, because like The Christmas Story was made probably in the seventies.
Yeah, I don't know.
I like that one up and I still watched it because it was on all the time.
Nineteen eighty three is when it came out.
Oh wow, okay, yeah, my father in law the one he loves is Scrooged with a Bill Scrooge or Scrooge. I think it's I don't know, check it out. I think it's Bill Murray maybe.
Oh, yeah's Scrooged.
Yeah, he thinks that's one of the best Christmas movies that no one talks about.
Oh, interesting, I don't think i've seen it. You better check it out nineteen eighty eight. The other movie that I'll watch is The Holiday. It's typically between those two, which is a like a rom com with Cameron Diaz and never seen it. Jude Law, You've never seen The Holiday? No, Oh, your wife would love this movie great. It came out in two thousand and six.
You know what's really good is Four Christmases.
Four Christmas is good.
Vince Vaughn funny movie. Hey, whatever happened to Vince Vaughan? He's still acting?
No, he's you know what. I looked it up because my dad. My dad asked that same question, but we were watching for Christmas.
It's like, literally, the first time I thought about Vince Vaughan is because you said that my dad he used to be in every single movie.
And Tim McGraw's in that movie, and Dwight Yoakam.
Wild Dwight Yoakam's in the movie.
My dad when we were watching, it's like, Hey, that's that's Dwight Yogam and my mom's like, no way, yeah, sure, sure enough, he's in there.
Okay, but yeah, four Christmas. This is a good one. I'll tell you what. That's that makes me laugh.
Yeah, that's the going too.
I think I've only seen it once in my life.
But okay, I'm gonna watch Scrooge. You have to watch the holiday. I think you guys would like the holiday. It's for a lot of people.
I'm gonna check my calendar. We're not gonna be able to fit the holiday in.
I guess I'm not watching Scrooge. Favorite Christmas memory growing up, favorite Christmas memory? Yeah yeah, yeah.
Oh man ah, I mean just the there's road trips to see Grandma and Grandpa in Chicago. I mean, they're just those were fantastic your parents, No.
My Sorr, I didn't know if you're talking about like now with the kids that I'm just trying to make sure I followed.
No, you said, when I'm a kid, I we would drive from Austin to Chicago and to see my mom's parents, and that was just so awesome because you got to understand, back in the day, there wasn't freaking FaceTime where you could see Grandma and Grandpa. So I didn't see Grandma and Grandpa but once every couple of years, which is so crazy to think about now you just do phone you see them all the time. I wouldn't see them for a couple of years, and so we'd drive up to Chicago and pulling into their little parking spot. They didn't have a driveway, but that little park in it, I had a little gravel and you crunch it and it was like you're there. And then it would snow and you'd build a snowman and it was Those are memories that I'm just like, dang, those were so fun memories. And I do remember. I do remember my dad had a stash a mustache and we we had Grandma and Grandpa's in Chicago, and he it was Christmas and he shaved it, and I ran upstairs and said, I'm never talking to you again because I was like, I'm not going to recognize you, like it was like weird like thing. I never seen my dad without a mustache, okay, And so I remember it clearly, running upstairs to the little loft area and I'm never talking to you again, bananas.
I think most dads in the nineties and early twenty ten mustache because my dad did too. Yeah, and he shaved it when we were in high school. It was weird for a while.
It was as a kid. I had never seen it, so, I mean, I may have been seven years old.
Do your kids do the same thing when you shaved, because you get some gnarly beards?
No, they tell me all the time, Dad, don't we need to shave that? It pokes me.
Oh, they're not a fan.
No, I'm not a fan either. It's just I'm lazy.
Are you going to try and do a mustache for them for a couple of years? No?
No, I don't think I could see you the No, my mustache doesn't really grow in that well, Like it's not very evident, Like the beard can go with the mustache, and it's still kind of blondishit like, it never got really crazy colors.
It's not like a tricolor beard.
Yeah, it's a weird it's a weird deal. I don't know, but yeah, I would never A mustache is not my jam, that's fair.
My so growing up, we would always leave food out for the reindeer, and we'd make Christmas cookies that we left out for Santa, and we'd always wake up to the reindeer eating, the food had been eaten and the cookies were eating, and we'd get a letter from Santa.
Oh that's legit.
Yeah, and then we'd have like our stockings and like that whole memory, like it was Santa had made Christmas so magical. Yeah, you know, like it was just this really cool, incredible every time you went to bed, Like I would never sleep Christmas even night because I knew it was going to be so excited, and I'd always try and catch Sanna and catch the reindeer. Never did. I always fell asleep.
Yeah, there was one Christmas that I was so pumped, I mean just off the wall Banana's like w The next morning, I didn't wake up. I didn't wake up like.
You just like got had to be woken up.
Is that where you're oh no, no. They took pots and pans in the room and were banging them and I wouldn't wake up.
Why were you just like passed out?
I guess I was like four, but I was so hyped, you know what I mean, Like I'm way up there and then just I guess I just crashed and I just could not be woken up. I was so tired. It's crazy. I'll tell you one thing. My wife, when she was a kid, she tried to catch Sanna, So, hey, give you this kid's Back in the day, they had like camcorders you had to carry on your shoulder and film, and so her, her sister and her brother set it up and put couch cushions around it and had it pointing at the Christmas tree, and all you got in the video was Sanna's white glove coming over the top and turning it off, like covering the lens and turning it off. And she still talks about it. She's like, oh, I thought I was fine, they gonna get Sanna, and he outsmarted me. And I'm like, dude knows everything. Santa is baller, that's true.
And Santa's full of magic. So like you get anything past him.
No, nothing, nothing gets pass him. So yeah, those are I mean Christmas memories. Bubble bread is just my that's what it is.
Bubble bread like monkey bread.
I don't know what monkey bread is.
Is it like cinnamon and icing and it's kind of all mixed together and it's like you pull it Apart's kind of sticky.
Yeah. Yeah, most called cinnamon. What is it called for you bread?
Bubble bread?
Yeah? Okay, yeah, I don't know what you call it monkey bread and monkey bread and we don't monkey around.
It could be different things.
No, I can't. It's bubble bread.
No, I mean, I'm saying like we could be talking about totally different meal.
It sounds about saying, but we call it. We call bubble bread bubble bread. That's the real name. All you monkey bread people change the name bubble bread with the time.
What's different about the holidays for you now that you have kids? This is like one of the listener questions that I moved into here, that you that's different that you have kids and I moved away from home.
Oh, it's different now because this will be the first year that we have not traveled for Christmas.
You were telling me about that.
So my wife is all, I want them to wake up in their own bed sometime, and I'm like, yeah, I get it, I get it.
So the Santa can come to y'all's house and have their Christmas magic at your.
Gad yes, instead of having it at Grandma and Grandpa's house. So we'll be staying here and it's gonna be crazy, weird, but it's awesome. But and she's like, yeah, this is gonna you know, we'll never travel for Christmas again. I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, girl, You calm down there, Like going to Grandma and Grandpa's for Christmas is still exciting. So you can't just say you're never gonna go anywhere for Christmas again. That's bananas.
Is it hard for you, because like, the the thing that would be hard for me is like every year I'm at my parents' house. We do the same, like we have the same traditions and everything.
Oh, it's coming to an end, don't you worry.
But like, what isn't it hard for you to like know that, like you had all these traditions and now you're having to start new traditions.
Yeah, it's hard. It's really hard. Like I mean, heck, the first one I ever spent like at my in laws instead of my parents was like, well, this sucks. Like I mean, don't get me wrong, my in laws are fine sometimes, but it was hard to know that. Man, Like Christmas is usually and because at my parents' house before kids and stuff, we had game night every Christmas Eve, so all our friends would come over, you know what I mean, and if they were you know, married, significant others, whatever, they would bring them this all pre kids, and we freaking game night. It until freaking two in the morning, and it was all it was a way to catch up. And you know, like if they live out of town or whatever and knew, they always knew, and I mean Forrest would always text, We're still doing game night, game night, game night. Better count down to game night, you know what I mean. So we would get all excited for it. And now it's just like, hey, we don't do that anymore. No more game night.
I think that's the biggest change that I've experienced, is that even just like moving away, I don't I'll go home for things like I'm not home for Thanksgiving anymore. Now it's maybe people can visit if they can, and then I get to see everybody at Christmas. Yeah, Like the changes, I think is what's just the hardest about in general of getting older in the holidays.
Yeah, I mean, there's a line I came up with that, Uh, the only thing that stays is the same is everything changes.
That was actually really profound for you.
Thank you.
I'm sitting here kind of in shock. Yeah, I'm just it's just I can't tell if you're also joking at the same time.
No, that's the only thing that remains the same as everything changes.
You are right, You are right. I'm trying really hard to be serious with you.
Why why are you trying to be trying so hard to be serious?
Because it was really profound.
Yeah, I mean that's real life, Like, that's the truth.
It is like, it's not very often that you say something like that and I'm not I.
Was not prayer. Okay, that's cool, thank you.
It was really good.
I'm sorry to do that to you on a Saturday morning. I mean, they laugh at my profoundness. Yeah, but hey, guys, if you guys want to, you know, write.
No, it was it's really sweet lunchbark okay.
Keep down your head and you know, get a tattoo of it, you know. Just I mean, that's just something I came up with, and it's like as it is deep. It's real though, it is real.
It's real, and I appreciate saying it.
Because what else stays the same.
No, you're right, You're one hundred percent right. It's not that I just I was it ready for it. Okay, you can take a quick break of right back. All right. I need to ask you this from one I'm like semi frugal to a very frugal person. Do you stock up on things at the end of the year with all the deals going on?
Like, what do you mean?
Like, I'll stock up on hand soap. Sometimes I'll go buy chocolate that's only in store for now, and I'll eat it, like for a couple of months into the new year. I buy a lot of like makeup and hair care.
Oh no, is there.
Anything you have like multiples of it? Like I feel like I stock up kind of like a bear hibernating. No.
My wife will buy toilet paper if she goes to the store, even though we have some and it's on sale, Like if it's like, oh, ten dollars off, she'll buy it. But besides that, No.
But like the Cyber Monday, the Black Friday, you're not like sitting there stocking up on things that you know you'll use the next year.
No, dang, did we already have those?
Oh? Yeah they have. I mean Friday Black Friday's after Thanksgiving. Cyber Monday.
Black Friday was the thing I loved Black Friday. No, let me tell you. I camped out on Black Friday. Same I got a TV. On Black Friday, my sister and I camped out at Circuit City South Park meadows like bawlers. I mean it was well. And here's the thing. It was actually cold and austin that night. It was probably in the thirties, a wind was whipping.
How many hours did y'all camp out? For?
Five and a half six hours at least? And the funny part is my sister, you know, couldn't shops out called. I just freaking put a sleeping bag on. I went to sleep. I didn't even care like I sleep, That's something. The difference is I sleep anywhere. I'm amazing, you know, like.
Do you fall asleep anywhere?
I can do it. It's it's just a talent. And I always when people are like, oh I can't sleep, I struggle to sleep, I'm like that sucks, bro, Like that's terrible. But I remember there, you know, because they used to say, oh, there's a limited amount of TVs. We don't know how many we have, and so I remember running and people grabbing carts. I'm like, what are these idiots doing getting carts? You don't need a cart running. And they had like a set of DVDs there, and I leaped over the DVDs and got to the TVs number three. I was the third person and I was like number thirty in line, you know. So I passed a lot of people stopping to get carts on my carts and then impulse by I bought another TV because they were so cheap, and I was like, you know what I need went from my room and so I bought two. And what's funny is this is my first house and it had like a cutout above the fireplace. Yeah, I didn't even measure it. I had no idea if the TV was even gonna fit.
You just like went in like free balling it.
Basically I went in free balling and I just ran grabbed it and it fit by two inches on each side. So lucky. I mean, I had no idea this is. I was so just like caught up in the whole thing. And then look at that, and it was so exciting to camp out and I remember those and people used to go crazy crazy and now I'm like, man, it's so much better. People don't have to go camp out and miss Thanksgiving.
And uh, you know, I never missed Thanksgiving, but I definitely did, and I stayed outside of I think it was like Cabella's one year. I don't know why. There was something we were getting for my dad, like some like trail camera or something, and I was like, yeah, I'll do it, just for like the heck of it, not that I really like needed to that. I wasn't buying a TV. There wasn't anything like crazy I was buying. But I just remember being as part of it, and I was like, this is wild. People are nuts. I watched a lot of fights happen. Like being somebody who wasn't very I was just like, I just need this one thing that I knew nobody was really gonna go after I got to watch everything happened and it was nuts.
It was people were crazy.
I do kind of wish people would get to have that experience, Like it does bum me out that, like you know, stores are going away.
I mean people were storming, breaking down doors and trampling people like not that.
Part, but like I do like the community of it, of everybody like waiting in line to like get these deals. Like I missed that community aspect versus now everything's online, like there's no community to that. You buy it, you're done.
Yeah, I do. I don't understand the shopping. The shopping online. It makes everything easier, but it's not as fun.
No, I still go to the mall, but like much you're closing all over the place.
Like I think about like getting presents or whatever, and it's like you can just do it online. But is it really like when you buy a present for the niece and nephew for their birthday, you just go online and send it to them. What I used to love when Grandma and Grandpa would send a package for your birthday or Christmas and you would open it up and all the presents were wrapped. It was like, this is the best. And now it's just like bro open a box and you see what it is. You don't even wrap it.
See I with my niece and nephew. Their birthdays are in October and November. October what it's right near mine? October fifth?
Okay, yeah, my nephews are October sixteenth. My niece is September twenty first, and then the other nephew is March nineteen.
I was gonna say you had all fall babies, but yeah, so if I there was like the first two years when they were younger, I did. And now I'm like, no, I'm bringing home your birthday gifts for Christmas. You're gonna open them all in front of me.
Oh my god.
So I wrap them so they get their birthday presents from me when I come home and they get their Christmas gifts. Okay, that's ridiculous, but like, I want to be able to otherwise I can't wrap it.
I actually you could well not.
There's not a lot of them that do it.
No, no, no, you order it to your house, you wrap, and you mail it.
Oh yeah, that that's way too much work.
It's asier given a nephew. You ain't worth the effort. Let me hear you hear what she said, Morgan said, you guys are not worth the effort.
You were listening to the second part of that, Like, yes, that's that's double work when I can just keep it and give it to him in person. One, But also like it sucks to watch them open gifts on FaceTime. It's it's fun to do it in person, and.
I agree, but it's it's also weird to open a birthday present six months later.
Oh, they don't care. They love it.
They get more gifts, That's true.
Like I just I just designate different rapping. Okay, okay, I think every adult should have at least like one dish that they know how to make, that they can bring to a gathering and a party anything like that. I've noticed a lot of my friends don't have like one dish. Every time we have gathered to be like, well what should I make? What should I bring? Instead of it being like, no, I got I got this one thing that I'm really good at making. Do you have something like that? Like do you have one dish? Like if you were invited somewhere, you're like, I can bring.
This, Like what do you like?
It could be emptied, it could be an, it could be whatever.
Yeah. I mean my wife makes a good caso.
See, so like you, caeso is what you guys would always be like, okay, we'd bring the caso.
Yeah, and she can make a good guawk. Yeah.
See, like you guys have yours.
I can't like in the caso, i'mmost like, oh, yeah you make.
But at this point you guys are a package. Youel but you were to go by yourself.
Yeah, I don't know. I mean if I can make it enchiladas.
Yeah, okay, so you do have something.
Yeah, it takes a long time. Well I'm just sitting chopped the bed. You got to chop this, chop that, do this, blah blah blah blah blah.
This is my point that I think everybody should have at least one dish that they can like easily put together for a gathering.
I mean, I can make spaghettios.
Okay, that's not that's like pouring out of the can.
No, you got to put the pumbers on them, cheese and pepper in there.
Okay, No, No, like I'll be making something, making something that you can bring. It can even be cookies, like it can be brown I.
Can't make cookies and brownies.
I can't do nothing, no dang, So you'd be on your own.
So I can make it.
I can.
Told you I'm making siladas, but you just.
Said to take too much time, so you probably wouldn't do it.
Yeah, it takes a long time, so maybe need.
To come up with like an easy dish.
Yeah, I'll work on that. But we cookies, well, you can get the cookies that are already pre cut.
You know what.
I mean stick them in the oven.
Yeah, I mean it's still doing something, but like it was just funny.
What's yours?
Oh? I have like, I have a I got a white raspberry bean dip.
Did you say what did it put?
Yeah? It's actually called it crack dip, but I call it.
It's called puke dip.
Yeah, you don't like ranch, go ahead, the black raspberry bean dip.
What's in that?
Black beans? Cream cheese, Pulte raspberry sauce, and jack cheese and you basically cook it all together.
That sounds good.
Oh, it's amazing.
It's from my is that the bomb?
Yes, the bomb is from my college town. One of the restaurants made it, and so I put the recipe online.
Shout out Manhattan, Manhattan, Kansas.
So Long Saloon.
I got a question. Why are they called the Little Apple.
Because it's Manhattan and they're little compared to big Manhattan and New York. Oh, you just have a you just had a revelation. You're sitting there like wait what yeah, little Apple?
Yeah? Yeah, but it's New York City is the Big Apple?
Yeah? And Manhattan is in New York City.
Yeah.
But and so Manhattan in Kansas is the Little Apple.
Okay, I mean I think that's a stretch because but it's not.
They have the same name.
But Manhattan isn't the big Apple part of the Big app. Manhattan is in New York City, so you can be called slice of the Apple.
No, no, no, you're gonna wait to technical thank you telling you there is the little Apple. It's both Manhattan one's big ones little.
Yeah, but Manhattan's not the big Apple. New York City is the big Apple. So is the Bronx the Big Apple. I mean it's part of New York City.
It is. It's part of New York City. Like you don't necessarily identify places from their suburbs. It's just so happens that for New York City, you do because it's such a massive city. But it's still New York City.
Okay, maybe I don't know, Maybe I'm overthinking it.
You are, you are. So I need to tell you something that happened to me, and you're definitely gonna laugh at me. I was working on a planet fitness yeah, and stretching, you know, getting getting going not to fire hydrol.
No, you didn't knock a fire hydrant off the wall.
Yes I did.
There's no chance, I promise you I did. No, there's no chance, I.
Promise you I did. It fell on my back and I have a bruisal.
See, because if you knocked a fire hydrant off the wall, yeah way, sorry, water will be spring everything.
You're right, what is it? What's supportable?
A fire extinguished?
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, that's what it was. Sorry, I for reason, not for a second thing. I was like, yes, I did, this happened.
That is awesome, okay, fire shirt.
Sorry. I really thought for a second for the same thing.
That's why you were like, yes I did. I was so confused.
Yeah, fire extinguisher off the wall and it fell on the back.
Oh that hurts.
Oh, it hurts so bad. And I had to like play it all and some very nice man who you know, somebody's son raised him, right, he's like probably eighteen. He game up. He's like, are you okay? And he picked up the fire extinguisher and put it.
I was like, you were stretching and you hung your arm out.
I mean, so there's like this little kind of ab area whatever where everybody stretches or does core and there was only like one area to put the mat down. So it was in front of the fire extinguisher. I was far enough away from it, I thought, But when I like stood up from a stretch.
Like, oh that's so bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This may be why I can't find like a guy in real life. Too clumsy, because there's been two other instances that.
Actually would open the door to meet a guy because the guy comes over and it's like ore you, okay, you know, do you need some CPR? And then you say yeah, and then boom marriage.
Let me tell you the two other instances that happened. I knocked over a bunch of chips on split at the grocery store on accident. Oh, I had my backpack on and I kind of like just turned.
Oh yeah, yeah, okay, that happens.
Like siteswiped. So that happened. This is all the same week, by the way. And then I was at a bar and you know how they have like roped off sectual Yeah, I didn't see the rope off, and again my backpack got caught on it and I basically did a summer salt over the rope.
Bad.
So you know a collection of clumsy things that have happened.
Yeah, I didn't rouse you're that clumsy.
I it's it comes in waves. Like sometimes I'm good and then for whatever reason, I'll have like a spurt, like I dropped my laptof the other day for no like don't even know how. I was literally just standing there just on my hand.
Oh I do that sometimes. I just like when I have a cup of water and I'm just I just go to pick it up, and I just it's like your motor right, I drink it and then I go to set it down and just pops somehow squeezes out of my hand, and I'm like, how does that happen? Yeah?
Yeah, see that's what it's like. Random. It's like I'm fine for like months, and then I'll go through a spurt up.
Yeah, you know. They they say things happen in threes. So that's why you had your three clumsies instead of just one.
Yeah, but then the laptop happens and then annous.
Oh yeah that's true. So you got two more coming.
Oh boy, Okay, we'll be right back. What's something that you've bought lunchbox that now like you couldn't lived your life without. I'll tell you, because I have.
My house, okay, like something something.
Like smaller than your house. The reason I'm asking this is that car, okay, stop doing survival things. I have a litter robot and I have a vacuum robot. What a litter robot for my cat? Hazel cleans itself. It's amazing. I never I never have to like.
To take the litter out.
No, I just have to take the trash bag out. It's amazing.
Okay, called litter robot.
Okay, game changer. And then I got a vacuum robot because Hazel sheds a lot and I don't like vacuuming every single day, so I got the vacuum robot. Also changed my life.
Oh we had Man, I'm gonna text my wife. We had one of those things. It wouldvacu Yeah, the vacuum robots. Whatever happened to ours?
What do you ask me that you think I like stole it or.
Something like we used to use it and did we turn it off one day and just never turn it back on?
Maybe or maybe there's just too many kids toys around that because.
It can't Really that's true too.
I say, if you run it and there's stuff everywhere, like it could get stuck on it, it could stop working, like there's a lot of things that could happen. You have to have it pretty clear obstructed on the floor.
Huh.
So that could be why.
I talked to that wife, like, Yo, what happened to our vacuum robot?
Why you've been vacuuming more often lately?
No, I haven't been vacuuming any like, I mean, I'm just saying, like I noticed that we didn't. I forgot about that thing.
It's amazing game changer. Yeah. It's pretty loud too.
Yeah, so usually you do it when you're.
Sleeping, yeah, or just when you're not home.
That's true too. Dang, that's funny.
And the one I have, the one that I got because I got it on one of my Black Friday deels. Yeah, and I splurged and I got the one that self empties, so I don't have to do anything for like thirty days. It just vacuums goes back. Vacuums goes back.
But where does it empty?
It has It literally has a little base station and it empties at the base station. It sounds like an airplane's taken off.
Oh that's pretty cool, right. Yeah.
So two robots now that I have, and I've only recently I can't live without them.
Yeah, what when I could I not live without?
I know you don't love technology.
I was gonna saying I don't buy anything. I don't think you understand how cheap I am.
But maybe it's like I don't know, maybe it's a kitchen item. Maybe it's something you use for sports. I don't know.
There's nothing in the kitchen that I don't I could live. I mean a microwave. Microwave is important.
Yeah, you're gonna have like basic survival things right now?
Well, I really if you. I mean, I don't use it. A channel changer. I couldn't live without that.
The remote do you use like base like the original remote, or do you have like an Apple TV or or no?
I use the I have the I don't know, basic one.
It's like your old school remote basically.
Yeah, I don't have anything else.
Well that's pretty good. That means you could probably live off the grid. Well you love TV, Yeah, but I could.
I mean I could go out. I mean I could live without TV. But it's tough. But yeah, there's nothing I don't have technology that is. Oh, I you know I got one. I got one?
Oh gosh, is it gonna be bad or dirty?
No, Okay, a bedet?
Oh wait, but day?
That's it?
Is it?
Bedet or bidet? But debt?
But day?
But do we do? We die?
Now?
I really don't know what we're saying.
Okay.
Ray gave me one for Christmas a few years back. And my cousin Andrew and his buddies, his fraternity brothers, they would always talk whenever we'd go party, like after they were out of college, they always be talking about them, talking about dude, it's a game changer. And my cousin Andrews the one that got his frat brothers onto it. I was like, you guys are crazy. That is the weirdest thing, because I'd seen him in the hotel room in Vegas. Yeah, I was like, what the heck is that?
Are they weird? To learn how to like use.
No, and then you use it.
I don't want to get to you.
Use it for the first time and you are like, why did I ever waste time with toilet paper?
Yeah, it's it's more environmentally environmentally friendly, Yeah.
Right, it is, and it has to be clean cleaner.
Yeah.
I just don't like when you get your hands dirty, Yeah, do you just wipe them? With toilet paper or do you wash.
Them after going to the bathroom?
No, no, just in general.
Oh no, I wash them.
So if you got mud on your hands, would you just use it, uh toilet paper or I see.
Your point, No, I would wash them.
Yeah, it's pretty bananas.
That is a that's a wild comparison to think about.
But yeah, so that thing is, I mean, it is is crazy.
On every single toilet in your house or just one, not just one. Have you thought about putting it on all of them?
No? Because I have kids and they'll spray that thing all over the roomy well, like they go in my ba my bathroom and they're like that, what'says. I'm like, I don't know, it'll break the toilet. Don't touch it.
That's how you get them not to touch it.
I don't touch it.
And they're probably not in there all that often.
No, exactly, they're not really in our room that very much. Yeah, but yeah, that's it. That's that. That thing is legit.
Okay, that's that's a good one. I need to look out. I've never never I don't know that. They also intimidate me a little bit.
Oh it's hey, let me tell you. It's intimidating it first, but then it's a life changer after.
That, much like the squatty partty, right, squatty pot hey, squatty potty is if you don't have a squatty potty, you guys are pooping all wrong.
You are pooping wrong. It's bad for you. Nobody breakfast, No, no, get the squatty partty, It'll change your life.
Okay. I wanted to end on this with something that you who and I both feel kind of similar about. You. You go a little bit more extreme than me. But I got a Happy Holidays card left on my trash can from my trash man.
Here we go.
Yeah, And you know, I'm just I'm just so curious about it. Like, first of all, it's a name and an address. Yeah, how do I know for one that it's my trash man? How do I know I'm not getting scammed? And somebody just don't walk around the neighborhood putting that on all the trash cans and it's some guy and he's gonna be collecting mice. No, I'm in my trash man. Oh good question, right, I mean, like everything's a scam. Now, how do I trust that? If I were to send anything. It's actually going to the trash man. It's all. You can stop them when they come by and be like, hey, stop stop working. We could, yeah, but most of the time you can't catch them. I mean they move fast and they typically come early in the morning.
Yeah, that's you're You're exactly right. I don't know. You just got to trust it. I guess. I don't.
Do you feel like we should we should tip them? You send something? Do you send them in to your garbage man?
Why why would I send him something?
I'm asking I don't know, Like you get this, so I assue do something.
That is above and beyond what they're supposed to. They are doing their job. Do you give the guy at uh McDonald's when you go through the drive through? Do you tip them?
Well, I don't know if they started adding that, that's the line of.
Yes I have. Yeah, okay, So well, I mean they've asked me, do you want to leave a tip? No, you just hit him in food, you fool like you're doing your job.
Hey, Sonic or Tacobot haven't done that to me yet, So yeah, Sonic may do it on the app. I have heard people talk about it, but.
I think they do their dang app.
I just mean the drive through, like I go, I always use drive through.
No, I go through the drive through and this is hilarious. Are you ordering on our app today? No, I'm ordering from you because I am here. I'm not ordering through the app. I'm here to order from you.
Yeah. I think everywhere has apps.
Now, everywhere. I mean I can't imagine if you had an app for every place you ate, you would have to scroll sixteen different screens. Oh, app app app app.
Yeah. I feel like you only have the ones that you frequent, or if you're like that frequent, like Starbucks people, I think use the app a lot if they frequent.
Yeah, Starbucks people need to get a life. I mean, you drive by a Starbucks and it's like the line is into the street. I'm my guys, it is not a club. You do not need to be waiting in line that long to be getting in. It can't be exactly.
It's like local. But I also know for some places, like Starbucks, is the closest coffee do a lot of things so many No, there's.
Not, there's a seven eleven, there's a there's something around you that has coffee that you don't need to wait in that line.
But maybe it's because you and I aren't coffee drinkers.
You're right, I don't understand like Duncan. Everybody tells me they used to come in. People used to come in to Duncan just for the coffee, so it has to be good too. But yeah, maybe I'm wrong.
Well, and that's what I'm saying is maybe the seven eleven coffee isn't good. But you know what, you know what is good at gas stations.
Hot chocolate, Yeah, legit always really good.
Quick tripping which top Man and Quick Truck is like all over Kansas, but their hot chocolate is some of the best.
No, hot chocolate a gas station is m m good except for the gas station by my house.
It's not good.
Well, they always forget to change it out, so it's just water, like they don't ever put the chocolate mix in, and then they're like, oh, sorry, it's broken. I'm like, oh bro, it's just your being lazy, Like get over here and get me some hot chocolate. Like it's so annoying, like those cold freezing days when i'd stop, I stop, not anymore. I don't stop anymore. But I'm not man, I'm lost your business.
Yeah, too many times over.
Too many times over, and I get in there, I'm tang it tolled away.
You go somewhere else. Now, Starbucks does have a good hot trup. No, they don't have a good I mean I don't know that.
I wait in line for they're hot chocolate any good. It's not good, it's not okay.
Well, back to my trash man. Do you think I send him money? It's a scam.
No, it's not a scam. But don't send him money period in the story. That's it. Don't send him money. Okay.
Well, if you are tipping your garbage people, can somebody tell me how much?
None? No, none.
I just like to get all perspectives. I just know what's going on.
Who do you tip your mail man?
So you know what's funny is one year, you know when I brought you guys all a little goodie goodie boxes of treats I left Yeah, yeah, I left some for my male person and they loved them because I was like, well they bring me because they bring me packages and stuff too.
Do you tip your FedEx guy?
I don't think I have a consistent one. I've tried to pay attention to that. And I don't think I have a consistent Amazon FedEx or anything. I do see people leave out like waters.
And stuff, but yeah, I don't do that.
Yeah I haven't done that. Maybe I need to look, but no. But like mail man, he's because that's you have a say the same one. Yeah all the time. And so I left treats for them and they loved it. And I did try and leave treats for my trash people one time, but like I said, sticky situation, I didn't like. I left him in the mailbox. I left a note on the trash can and put him in the mailbox for them to grab because they didn't want them to throw them away or I didn't want to sit him on the trash can and they never got home. So I did try something.
It's nice to you, but.
It didn't work out.
So yeah, I've never tried to leave anything for anybody. So I don't have worry about all that. That's too much of a hassle.
That's true. Well, if you have, please hit me up on Instagram or something. Okay, we gotta go do some listener questions. Bye bye bye the Bobby Bone Ship Bobby Bones
