In this episode, Tim hosts Joseph and Eric for a relaxed and often hilarious chat over Woodford Reserve Double Oaked whiskey. The trio kicks off by toasting Gene, a family member now in hospice, and then spiral into jokes about podcast intros, YouTube culture, and “smacking the like button.” Eric shares his success running Goblin Con, a local paranormal convention, and the group reminisces about growing up together in Fairview — from childhood pranks to church youth groups and haunted houses. Joseph tells a disastrous haunted hayride story that launches a rant about how Halloween has lost its edge, turning into a broader discussion about nostalgia, parenting, and small-town culture. The hosts also touch on personal topics like family loss, old friends, and funny (sometimes inappropriate) memories from their youth, all while maintaining the raw, unfiltered tone that defines The Fairview Social Podcast.

00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:26.719
Audience, welcome to the Fairview Social Podcast.

00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:29.039
I am your host, Tim.

00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:35.200
Please visit my website at www.thefairview social podcast.com.

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:40.960
Also, visit my social media on all social media platforms.

00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:42.880
What do you guys think about that?

00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:48.399
Well, before we go any further, on behalf of Mike, I have to say Daniel's a bitch.

00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:49.119
All right.

00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:51.119
I guess we're gonna keep rolling with that.

00:00:51.439 --> 00:00:54.320
I I I asked Mike and I had a conversation this afternoon.

00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:57.759
I was like, should I start it off by still saying that Daniel's a bitch?

00:00:57.759 --> 00:00:59.039
And he said to do it in his name.

00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:00.159
So I did it in his name.

00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:00.479
All right.

00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:01.439
Well, that's fair enough.

00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:06.239
I have to say, this is the third time I've been here, and every time I get I come over, it's fancier and fucking fancier.

00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:07.519
Now you got a website and shit.

00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:08.319
Well, I've had that.

00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:09.680
Fancier microphones.

00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:14.159
Well, for a second he looked at you and I thought he was getting ready to shout out your website, and then he didn't.

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:14.719
I know.

00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:19.760
The only thing that's that's different since the last time you came is is I bought two more of these booms.

00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:21.040
Well, it's the small things.

00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:21.840
They just kind of add up.

00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.920
I didn't I didn't hear you say anything about the website last time.

00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:24.319
So huh?

00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:24.719
Yeah.

00:01:24.719 --> 00:01:25.200
Oh, yeah.

00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.680
Well, I'm trying I was just thinking on the I was thinking on the way home.

00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:30.159
I was thinking on the way home from work.

00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:32.480
I was like, do you need to promote this a little bit?

00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:34.239
Should I like, share, and subscribe?

00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:37.359
Yeah, like like, share, and subscribe to all the things.

00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:38.879
Well, I'm listening.

00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:42.480
Apparently that doesn't work out for the Fairview Social Podcast.

00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:43.599
So we'll just keep on rolling.

00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:48.719
No, you gotta say catchy shit like smack that bell like it owes you fucking money or something.

00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:50.560
That's what all those popular YouTubers say.

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:52.159
Yeah, hit the smack that bell.

00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:53.599
Watching the wrong YouTube video.

00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:54.239
No, like Mr.

00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:54.640
Ballin.

00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:55.040
You watch Mr.

00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:55.359
Ballin.

00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:55.840
I don't watch Mr.

00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:56.159
Ballin.

00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:56.799
You ever watch Mr.

00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:57.120
Ballin?

00:01:57.200 --> 00:01:57.439
I have not.

00:01:57.439 --> 00:01:58.640
I've watched a show on Amazon.

00:01:58.640 --> 00:01:59.519
That was entertaining.

00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:02.640
He comes up with some catchy shit every time for you to hit the bell.

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:04.640
They're like smash that like button.

00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:05.439
Yeah, oh no.

00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:06.799
Like it fucked your mama last night.

00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:08.800
Yeah, I do love the no, you're right.

00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:09.520
I do love the smash.

00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:11.599
I don't know what I was thinking, but yes, you're right.

00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:13.759
He he he abuses the like button.

00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:14.639
Yeah.

00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.360
Well, I mean, I guess do I need to start saying things like that?

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:18.800
Is that gonna hey it works for that?

00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:19.680
I don't like that.

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:21.280
Does it make me cool like the kids?

00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:32.000
I mean, I mean, that would kind of be ripping off John Bollin, but well, I'm sure that like out of the millions of podcasts and YouTubers, there's probably a bunch of them that say shit like that.

00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:32.719
Yeah.

00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:42.719
I think one time I tried to post on Facebook something about punch that button in the face and it wouldn't let me post it because it was violence or something because these are community standards.

00:02:43.039 --> 00:02:43.360
Fuck.

00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:44.719
Yeah, that's a that's dumb.

00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:45.360
Okay.

00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:47.439
Well, so here we are.

00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.960
It's uh fall time here in the city.

00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:58.800
Here's my um, I guess my update on Gene, which I have some uh a drink here.

00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:00.639
We're gonna raise a glass to Gene.

00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:06.800
Joseph was thinking that uh I was going to say just for the record, it wasn't just me.

00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:11.120
When I was leaving the house, Caitlin said, Is Tim gonna tell you that Gene is dead?

00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:18.319
So we have this running thing where, you know, hey, don't call when someone dies, just text me, and then take it a step further.

00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:20.719
I'm just gonna tell you when you come on the podcast.

00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:26.719
So if you don't visit the podcast for like a month, then you'll find out a month later that Gene has died.

00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:29.039
So we're on high alert right now.

00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:35.120
Gene has entered hospice care as of today, and he's declining pretty rapidly.

00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:41.599
So for those of you that are listening, we're not trying to make light of hospice and people dying, but he is 93.

00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:41.919
Right.

00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:42.879
It's bound to happen.

00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:44.159
And we are heartless.

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:48.719
We well he's also he's also been waiting to die since he moved in with you.

00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:49.599
That is true.

00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:51.680
Yeah, no, and then he incarcerated him.

00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:52.479
Right.

00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.680
I know he said we incarcerated him, him at the assisted living.

00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:58.879
So we're gonna have a little drink to Gene today.

00:03:58.879 --> 00:03:59.599
To Gene.

00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:00.159
To Gene.

00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:00.639
To Gene.

00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:02.639
And we'll have another one when he dies.

00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:05.599
I'm not waiting until he dies to have another drink.

00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:06.560
Oh, that's smooth.

00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:06.879
That's smooth.

00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:08.159
You know why it's smooth?

00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:09.360
Woodford reserve.

00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:11.840
It's Woodford Reserve, but it's double oaked.

00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:13.919
I haven't had whiskey in a long time.

00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:16.879
That's not that's the high dollar bottle, there, boys.

00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:30.560
All right, so it's been uh it's been a minute since you've been here, Eric, but Joseph was here recently, and I thought it'd be good to get both of you guys on here so we can hash out our differences and just gonna go straight into it.

00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:34.639
That Joseph, why do you not want to hang out with Eric?

00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:36.720
What I don't know.

00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:38.160
This isn't too sad, dad.

00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:39.439
You can't just instigate shit.

00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:40.959
This is trying to do that.

00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:43.680
I was trying to create some drama here.

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:45.680
It was news to both of us.

00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:47.759
All right, never mind.

00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:51.279
It's funny, he's like, I figure I'd get you both here, it'd be nice.

00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:56.480
And I told Roger and Tim, I was like, one day I'm just gonna show up at your house and be like, hey, we're going to podcast.

00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:58.079
No warning, no nothing.

00:04:58.079 --> 00:04:58.720
Just show up.

00:04:58.720 --> 00:04:59.759
And then I didn't have to.

00:04:59.920 --> 00:05:02.639
Oh, yeah, he was gonna do that, and then I just invited you both.

00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:03.759
I was like, that's a good idea.

00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:05.680
Eric and Joseph on here would be fun.

00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:10.879
We all have history together, so those of you that don't know, Joseph is my brother.

00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:12.800
I believe he still is at this point.

00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:13.439
I think so.

00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:14.240
I don't think they changed.

00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:17.279
You're only when Gene dies, you're only two fucking Holluses left.

00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:17.519
I know.

00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:19.680
I mean, we have children other than our spawn.

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.399
Well, I'm I mean the original Holluses.

00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:24.240
The OG Holluses.

00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:28.079
And so, and Eric has been a lifelong friend.

00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:35.279
We actually all lived down the road from each other growing up, so that was that was always interesting to say the least.

00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:37.279
So, yeah, there's that.

00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:39.279
I saw um Anna Easterling.

00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:41.920
Well, she's not Easterling anymore, but I saw her the other night at the plaza.

00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:43.120
I've seen her in a long time.

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:44.560
Yeah, I haven't seen her in a while either.

00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.879
I remember when I saw Melinda and Luke at Nathan's funeral, I was like, oh, these two people.

00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:49.759
I forgot about them.

00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:50.560
Yeah, that's true.

00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:52.639
Well, Anna was always the coolest one, she still is.

00:05:52.639 --> 00:05:54.240
So yeah.

00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:59.519
So Eric, you've been you're hot off the the goblink goblin con train here.

00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:00.480
How did all that go?

00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:01.040
Good.

00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:01.839
Really well.

00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:04.480
Uh better than I'd had planned.

00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:10.560
Um my kind of measuring uh success was if we it would be hugely successful if we sold 500 tickets.

00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:11.040
Yeah.

00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:12.240
Excuse me.

00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:17.279
Well, we sold 700 something tickets and had over 800 people there.

00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:18.720
Damn, that's a lot.

00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:20.560
How many some people got some free?

00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:21.759
Well, there's some free.

00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:25.600
Well, no, we counted those tickets, but 12 and under were free, and we didn't count the kids.

00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:28.720
So with the kids in there, it was 800 or more.

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:30.319
So yeah, that's cool.

00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.000
Yeah, the the event went well.

00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:33.040
Oh, it went great.

00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:33.360
Yeah.

00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:34.399
For two days as well.

00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:35.680
And so it was pretty crazy.

00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:37.600
But so the whole event was two days.

00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:37.920
Yeah.

00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:41.439
I just know that he that that Roger disappeared from work for a while.

00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:41.759
Yeah.

00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:44.560
So I didn't know how long the actual Goblin Con was.

00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.399
Well, we had VIP events too.

00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:58.319
So at the nighthouse on the Thursday night, the the Goblin Con itself was only Friday, Saturday, but Thursday night we did a VIP dinner that was uh for all the VIP guests to meet and greet the speakers and get autographs and all that shit.

00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:02.879
And um then Saturday night we had a VIP ghost hunt at the nighthouse.

00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:08.079
So but we were up there from Wednesday to Sunday getting ready for everything and and all that.

00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:10.000
So how did the ghost hunt go?

00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:10.959
Good, really good.

00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:12.000
Everybody had a good time.

00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:17.439
We had we had a couple who bought VIP tickets that came from Hamburg, Germany, just for Goblin Con.

00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:18.000
Really?

00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:23.120
Uh we had a guy that drove 11 hours from Virginia with people from Oklahoma, I mean, all over.

00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:25.920
Are goblins a big thing in Germany?

00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:34.079
Well, the lady said she had when she was a kid or a teenager, she had come across the Hobbinsville Goblin story because it happened in 1955, and it just fascinated her.

00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:37.839
And so when she saw, somehow she saw on Facebook that there's gonna be a goblin con.

00:07:37.839 --> 00:07:40.720
And her and her husband came over just for that.

00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:41.680
That's cool.

00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:42.000
Yeah.

00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:44.399
They did they fly back immediately after?

00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:46.879
Do you think they went around and visited Nashville?

00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:48.319
I know they went around Hopkinsville.

00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:50.800
I don't know if they were made it to Nashville, but I think they were flying out like Monday.

00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:54.879
I mean, who the fuck flies in from Germany to go to Hopkinsville, Kentucky?

00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:58.160
These people did man, America's awesome.

00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:00.800
No, it's fucking Hopkinsville.

00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:07.040
And I'm not saying there's anything wrong with Hopkinsville, it's just it's yeah, there's nothing Hopkinsville.

00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:07.360
Yeah.

00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:08.639
That's true.

00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:09.279
All right.

00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:13.040
Well, I also saw for you, Eric, that you're starting up the podcast again.

00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:13.519
Yeah.

00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:16.319
First episode comes out, what, November 14th-ish?

00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:17.360
I think it was 12th.

00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:17.759
12th.

00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:19.120
What do you mean you think?

00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:20.399
You gotta know when your shit's coming out.

00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.240
I'm like in the whatever that fucking Wednesday is.

00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:24.319
I'm like with two professional podcasters.

00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:25.839
I'm just the fat guy on the corner.

00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:26.399
I don't know.

00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:31.439
I think that our 14 fans would think that that would say that they're a fan of you, which I don't know why.

00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:32.159
I don't know why.

00:08:32.159 --> 00:08:33.919
The meatballs guy.

00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:35.679
Yeah, the you are the meatballs guy.

00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:36.080
We do.

00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:39.279
I look, I'm not a meatballs guy, I'm the fucking ravioli taster.

00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:39.519
Okay.

00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:39.919
Me too.

00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:42.799
I'm I'm not a fuck a bunch of cheap spaghettios.

00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:43.919
I'm the ravioli taster.

00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:48.240
I'm I'm with you, but the fat joke was so good, I I have to lean into it.

00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:48.879
It was good.

00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:51.519
So you said you you put up a short, you tagged him.

00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:52.080
I did.

00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:54.240
He never fucking responded to it.

00:08:54.240 --> 00:09:00.559
But like we've talked about on the Fairview Social before, it's like it's a wild, wild west out there on the social medias.

00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:06.320
Some some days it's like it's fine, and then other days you get like one or two views, and people don't give a shit.

00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:09.360
So you just gotta take what you can get.

00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:17.039
The crazy thing in my podcast is I haven't done an episode in a year, somewhere around a year, and uh my fucking numbers have still been pretty good.

00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:23.840
I still am getting ad revenue, and so I'm looking forward to bringing it back because then it's gonna shoot up the listenership, and then I get more ad revenue.

00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:26.960
So can I be a guest on your on your podcast?

00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:31.759
Yeah, but I don't know if you really he was like thinking he's like, Do I want to be a remote?

00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:35.360
He was thinking like how how can Joseph serve this podcast?

00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:36.480
That's what I was thinking.

00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:39.759
Is what can we talk about that would factor into the paranormal or horror?

00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:42.799
Fucking nothing, but you know, we can have a good time.

00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:43.840
Yeah.

00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:50.559
Well, I mean, Eric's podcast isn't as loose, I guess you would say, as this one.

00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:57.759
His is like historical and proper and not fucking a bunch of assholes sitting around talking about nothing.

00:09:57.759 --> 00:09:58.480
I don't know.

00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:01.600
We talk about the paranormal, which I mean, sometimes it's sitting around talking about the thing.

00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:06.960
Maybe this podcast may be more successful if there was like some kind of niche here.

00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:07.919
Like a theme.

00:10:08.080 --> 00:10:09.759
Like a theme talking about something.

00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:13.679
Well, one day, whenever he decides to branch out from paranormal stuff, he's like, you know what?

00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:15.759
I just want to do a podcast talking about bullshit.

00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:17.039
Maybe I can go on it then.

00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:21.759
Well, why would he even care to do that when he can just come here and fulfill that need?

00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:23.120
I don't know.

00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:30.159
Of course, he's got more listeners than I do, so it might it maybe may benefit him better, but I don't know.

00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:31.519
I don't fucking know anything.

00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:33.200
No, I'm just here.

00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:37.759
I invited two friends to come over, a friend and a brother who I guess is my friend.

00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:39.120
Can I not be your friend?

00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:41.600
Yeah, I guess I'm here by default.

00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:42.720
You are here by default.

00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:45.759
Freeman's like, you better take him on that podcast.

00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:48.320
So, what else we got going on, guys?

00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:51.039
Come on, let's uh let's think of something to talk about.

00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:56.159
I I am ill-prepared as I usually am for the Fairview Social Podcast.

00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:58.799
Last weekend, I went on a haunted hayride.

00:10:58.960 --> 00:10:59.600
Tell us about that.

00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:03.440
It was fucking awful, and it was expensive.

00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:04.480
Where was it at?

00:11:04.639 --> 00:11:10.000
We went to the one and it's at the drag strip, the music city drag strip, it's uh whatever, up in Goulitzville.

00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:17.759
And Caitlin bought the tickets like two weeks in advance, didn't tell me anything, but apparently we bought four tickets because we went with her parents.

00:11:17.759 --> 00:11:22.000
So I'm like the 41-year-old guy on this haunted hay ride without my children.

00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:24.399
Like, I'm just that's kind of creepy.

00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:28.159
And were all the other little kids like looking at you like, what the fuck's this guy doing?

00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:32.320
Well, no, they were looking at Caitlin's mom, like, I wish this bitch would shut up.

00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:35.200
Oh my god, what if she watches this?

00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:40.000
No, she was per she was being she was screaming constantly, just but anyway.

00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:42.559
Shout out to Caitlin's mom screaming no, it was great.

00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:48.559
No, the the hay rod was awful, but I get along with the her parents are fine, but yeah, but the hay rod was it was fucking awful.

00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:50.799
It was $200 for all of us to go do this thing.

00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:52.559
Damn, it's fucking expensive, man.

00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:58.000
And so I I told we were at the office, and I was like, Man, it was on Friday morning.

00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:05.679
I was like, I was talking to one of the guys at work, I was like, Man, I'm going on this this haunted hay rod, and he goes, Are you going on the one with the paintball guns?

00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:07.840
I was like, You need to shut the fuck up right now.

00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:12.720
And this was not the one with paintball guns, and so we did it.

00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:14.639
There was a little freak show at the beginning.

00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:17.039
Caitlin may have been forced to get on stage.

00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:17.840
Oh, really?

00:12:17.840 --> 00:12:18.720
Tell us about that.

00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:23.519
Yeah, I have pictures too, and the whole video, but well, I can't put it on here today.

00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:24.159
No, that's fine.

00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:27.039
So they were they were doing like this freak show, and they're like, We need volunteers.

00:12:27.039 --> 00:12:31.120
And Caitlin and her mom had dressed up, like we need we need volunteers.

00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:42.159
And the lady's like, What and I like to say that while the freak show was probably good for middle of nowhere, Tennessee, it was it was it was not very good, but they're like, I need some volunteers.

00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:47.519
And as she's walking around, her mom shoves her forward, and she's like, Well, thank you for volunteering.

00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:53.919
And I don't know if your listeners don't know this, but Caitlin is not a she's very timid, yes.

00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:58.240
So she's on stage and she has to rip a string out of a guy's mouth.

00:12:58.240 --> 00:12:59.440
That was her whole purpose.

00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:01.360
I thought that was going in a completely different direction.

00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:05.360
My brain would be like, it was it was dumb.

00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:06.799
You said freak show.

00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:10.399
Well, I know in in Tennessee in Goodwin's.

00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:12.639
It wasn't Hanyman.

00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:16.879
I mean, she she handled it well, she was not pleased with being forced up there.

00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:24.399
So we go on this damn hayride, and and it's just you know, when you think of a hay ride, you think they're gonna have bells of hay.

00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:27.600
You're sitting in the in the tractors pulling the the wagon.

00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:28.480
You're sitting.

00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:32.639
No, it's a trailer with hay on the floor, and you just sit on the floor.

00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:33.679
I'm too fat for that.

00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:34.799
I'm too fat for that too.

00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:36.159
At some point, you have to get up.

00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:41.759
So so we're on this hay ride, and then and bless their heart.

00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:46.879
They're all trying, but it's like they had 12 people for this entire hay ride.

00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:51.679
So it's like you would sit there for like five minutes being pulled, and then all of a sudden somebody would just jump out at you.

00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:57.759
I'm like, the problem with all of this, uh and I don't mean to interrupt you because this is a very, very great story.

00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:59.120
No, it's fucking terrible.

00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:05.279
The stories got me on the edge of my seat, but it cost 200 fucking dollars exactly.

00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:06.720
Plus, they didn't tell you this.

00:14:06.720 --> 00:14:09.120
You had to pay $20 to park when you got there.

00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:11.120
Yeah, I paid $200.

00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:14.320
I'm like, they're like, it'll be $20.

00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:17.679
I'm like, does my ticket not cover that?

00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.399
Here's my stance on $50 a person not going to be a good one.

00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:22.639
We had two cars because their parents were in their trucks.

00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:24.240
We had to pay $40 to park.

00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:25.360
Why did you pay for the parents?

00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:26.399
I didn't pay for them to park.

00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:34.559
No, my stance on all of this stuff is listen, I will spend money higgledy piggledy before anybody else in the world.

00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:37.519
I I I am a professional money waster.

00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:38.559
Me too.

00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:50.639
And as I've gotten older, where I want to waste my money these days is I want to waste it on an experience because nothing materialistic anymore satisfies that itch.

00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:53.759
So I spend money on an experience.

00:14:53.759 --> 00:15:00.000
And what you learn is all of these experiences now, even if you go to dinner, just something as simple as dinner.

00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:07.600
But the event like you're talking about, $200 fucking dollars for some guys running around in a field trying to scare you.

00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:14.960
No, I want, I want, uh, I want I mean, at least when we were kids, they would like shove the chainsaw up our assembly locker room.

00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.559
I want Joseph Weiss to pull a string out of somebody's ass, not their mouth.

00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:19.360
For $200.

00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:26.879
So I, and for the record, I did Google the paintball hayride thing, and it is a legit thing in Columbia, Tennessee, and we are doing that shit next year.

00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:28.080
Well, hold on a second.

00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:33.919
I sent Eli, I sent Eli Taylor, Jack, and Zephyr to that last year for Halloween.

00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:35.039
The paintball one?

00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:37.360
The paintball one in Columbia, the one that you're talking about.

00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:38.320
The zombie paintball.

00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:39.279
The zombie paintball.

00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:41.440
Okay, so I'm on I'm on the edge of my seat now.

00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:42.559
All right, let me tell you this story.

00:15:42.559 --> 00:15:44.240
It's gonna ruin this for me, isn't it?

00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:45.840
Probably.

00:15:47.360 --> 00:16:00.080
So we're this was last Halloween, not those one, not the one that just passed, but but the Halloween last year, I was like, I want to do something with all the kids.

00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:04.480
You know, Hayden's in New York, so we just have almost all the kids.

00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:05.600
So I'm like, all right, let's.

00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:07.279
I'm gonna it's almost Halloween.

00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:11.519
I'm gonna do the hay ride because I remember when I was a kid, I used to fucking love hay rides.

00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:13.519
Um do you ever love that shit when you were younger?

00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:18.240
No, really, you're fucking you're soulless anyway.

00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:20.559
Anyway, I like the haunted barn.

00:16:20.559 --> 00:16:22.799
Oh, hold on, we'll get to that in a second.

00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:27.360
So, all so all of these things, so I wanted everybody to be together.

00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:29.120
So I'm like, oh yeah, I'm gonna buy tickets.

00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:32.799
So then as because that's the problem with me, and just was the same way.

00:16:32.799 --> 00:16:36.879
You get to you get something in your head and then you immediately do it.

00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:42.480
And so I shouldn't have immediately done it, which I caught myself because as I get older, I'm learning restraint.

00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:53.679
Are you so I stuck so I stepped back for a second and I was like, wait a minute, I can't have me, Nikki, Eli Taylor, Jack, and Zephyr just go to this thing.

00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:54.639
Why not?

00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:56.399
Because there is Freya.

00:16:56.399 --> 00:16:58.879
Somebody's gotta watch the child.

00:16:58.879 --> 00:17:00.879
Freya, Freya is the golden grandchild.

00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:02.320
Freya is the grandbaby.

00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:09.759
So I was like, okay, so that turned into I'm going to pay for my children to go do this, and Grammy and Grampy will stay at home with Freya.

00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:10.880
So that's what we did.

00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:12.319
Sent them to it.

00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:15.359
They leave at like fucking five o'clock.

00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:17.519
Something like five o'clock.

00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:22.079
They go out there, we're watching Freya, Nikki's watching Freya.

00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:24.960
Nobody thought that you were watching Freya Freya.

00:17:25.359 --> 00:17:27.440
I was just trying to be honest with the listers.

00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:28.400
Nikki was watching Freya.

00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:31.359
Your listeners also did not think that you were watching Freya.

00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:34.079
So they go, it's like five o'clock.

00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:37.599
And it's in Columbia, so it's like fucking hour from here.

00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:38.000
Right.

00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:38.960
Maybe even more.

00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:40.880
So anyway, five o'clock.

00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:41.519
They leave.

00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:46.640
Okay, well, they'll be back at 11, 12, you know, because they have all kinds of shit there.

00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.519
It's not just the hay ride because I bought the extra thing.

00:17:49.519 --> 00:17:51.200
Do they have a freak show?

00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:54.880
Not ones where they're pulling strings out of people's butts or mouth.

00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:56.240
With a hook.

00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:57.119
With a hook.

00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:00.000
So I guess that was an important part of that.

00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:10.559
So I paid like $350, $400 for these tickets because I got the add-ons to where you can go do the haunted house and the haunted woods and the zombie paintball.

00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:13.279
Did you get the extra paintballs and everything too?

00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:15.119
Yes, I got the works.

00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:16.319
I went all out.

00:18:16.319 --> 00:18:19.200
So they get home at like nine o'clock.

00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:22.319
Maybe even earlier, 8 30.

00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:24.079
They're fucking pulling in over there.

00:18:24.079 --> 00:18:26.960
I'm like looking out the window and I'm like, so I'm counting it.

00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:29.599
Five to six, like puts them at the place.

00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:33.519
Or maybe they left at six because it started at seven or something.

00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:36.240
So six to seven puts them there.

00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:37.359
So for an hour.

00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:37.839
Yeah.

00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:43.039
So they but but then when they got home, they said that they were only at the event for like 30 or 45 minutes.

00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:44.240
I was like, what the fuck?

00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:47.279
And then and so they were like, it was awful.

00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:49.359
They basically what you described.

00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:50.640
Well, that sucks.

00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:51.200
Yeah.

00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:55.599
So I basically ever since I heard the words zombie paintball hayride.

00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:56.880
You it's ruined for you.

00:18:57.119 --> 00:19:00.960
I've had this on my mind for two weeks planning for next year.

00:19:01.119 --> 00:19:09.039
Like I even thought about buying my own costume, which I don't dress up for how long to save your money because it's it should they said it sucks.

00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:09.440
I don't know.

00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:12.640
I may go and be like, oh hey, this is pretty good setup.

00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:13.759
Get to shoot things.

00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:14.160
Yeah.

00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:16.319
So look, this is a business opportunity.

00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:17.119
There's a niche.

00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:22.720
There's a niche that needs to be filled of good fucking haunted hay rods.

00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:26.880
They go, they go, did Caitlin and I go to scan like the tickets on her phone.

00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:28.640
They're like, did everybody sign the waiver?

00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:29.839
And Caitlin just said yes.

00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:30.559
So we walked away.

00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:32.960
I was like, I don't saw one.

00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:34.079
Did I sign a waiver?

00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:35.519
She's like, I don't know.

00:19:35.519 --> 00:19:36.799
But why?

00:19:36.799 --> 00:19:39.440
But my point is, is what did I need the waiver for?

00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:42.400
So they're not liable if you get hurt.

00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:52.079
They didn't even scare me if you fall off the point is that I don't mind paying for something that is expensive to have an event and something to enjoy.

00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:55.920
But when they don't deliver, it's like, man, it's like, but it's like that.

00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:58.480
You go to McDonald's and it disappoints you.

00:19:58.480 --> 00:20:01.359
It's like constant disappointment in any service.

00:20:01.359 --> 00:20:03.839
And so you try to peel the onion back.

00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:04.799
Well, where's the problem at?

00:20:04.799 --> 00:20:06.000
What's what's the problem here?

00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:07.440
Is it the people that work there?

00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:08.559
Or is it our expectations?

00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:09.759
Just give zero fucks.

00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:10.160
Yes.

00:20:10.160 --> 00:20:13.119
Is it our expectations that the pro that's the problem?

00:20:13.119 --> 00:20:15.039
Which I think is probably a little bit of both.

00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:20.240
Because remember, you know, like when you go into a house, like say you go into your childhood home or something.

00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:22.480
Well, this doesn't apply for you because you absolutely.

00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:28.319
But like places that places that you went when you were a kid and it's like the Mima's house was huge.

00:20:28.319 --> 00:20:30.400
It just seems to be enormous.

00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:31.039
It is not.

00:20:31.039 --> 00:20:32.000
That's what I'm saying.

00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:32.720
It's enormous.

00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:40.559
So maybe these experiences that we had when we were a kid sucked, and it but it didn't suck to us because it was our perspective.

00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:41.359
I don't think so.

00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:42.559
I think they've whitewashed the shit.

00:20:42.559 --> 00:20:43.200
You think so?

00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:49.200
I think they've whitewashed the shit for children just like they've whitewashed fucking Halloween with trunk or treat everywhere.

00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:50.319
Fucking hate trunk or treatment.

00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:59.920
And they've taken the trick-or-treating out of it because one person in this fucking 80s put uh razor blades in his own kids' candy.

00:20:59.920 --> 00:21:02.079
I'm serious, that's where they came from.

00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:18.160
It's just like I don't think the man is funny, but it it's well but it's it's been taken over by these idiots who well, it's the it's the crybabies that yes, things might happen as as is if you could walk out your front door and get hit by a car.

00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:19.920
It's like sometimes things happen.

00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:24.160
The best is when you hear you, and you're probably starting to see it on Facebook right now.

00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:26.640
Well, no, it what oh yeah, they will.

00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:32.000
Hey, if it's raining on Halloween, are we doing it on are we trick-or-treating on Saturday?

00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:33.200
Treating the rain.

00:21:35.039 --> 00:21:37.519
I just look, I'm you better get some grease paint for your face.

00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:38.319
That's all I'm doing.

00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:45.680
Maybe my memories are fucked up, but I remember the haunted barn and the haunter haunted locker room in Fairview were always bam, bam, bam, bam.

00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:46.400
There's shit happening.

00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:52.000
And then you go in this room and this shit's happening, and then you go out of there and you can't climb enough where you can't crawl through.

00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:57.839
You can't even get to the next room before they're fucking shoving a chainsaw on your ass, and you're just right.

00:21:58.000 --> 00:22:00.000
And they're all in your fucking face with their stanky breath.

00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:08.160
And that's when we were kids, and then we became teenagers, and and that kind of we started going to the downtown ones and where we thought we were even cooler.

00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:11.440
And the best haunted house experience I ever had.

00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:13.680
Well, I think I was 16 or 17.

00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:17.279
Me and Andrew, Alan, and Booty Hester.

00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:18.799
Oh, oh God.

00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:22.000
I have not laughed my ass off so hard ever.

00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:27.039
We're going, we went to the haunted prison that they used to have up and out.

00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:28.319
Uh yes, it was awesome.

00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:29.200
It was great.

00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:33.200
Um, I mean, you're they're banging and trying to you while you're waiting in line.

00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:39.599
Yeah, and the creepiest bitch in there was in a wheelchair and she was sitting on her legs, so she looks like she didn't have any legs.

00:22:39.599 --> 00:22:43.680
And she's fucking right up behind me, just following me through half the shit, and it creeped me out.

00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:45.839
Even though I know it's an actor or whatever.

00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:47.519
You know, but just psychological shit.

00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:47.839
Right.

00:22:47.839 --> 00:22:48.640
It was great.

00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:53.119
But we get to this one part there's a mummy in a corner.

00:22:53.119 --> 00:22:55.759
Right before you go through the doorway.

00:22:55.759 --> 00:22:58.240
Well, the four of us stopped because there's nobody else.

00:22:58.240 --> 00:22:59.519
We went on like a week night.

00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:00.559
There's nobody else in there.

00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:01.519
So we stopped.

00:23:01.519 --> 00:23:02.480
There's nobody behind us.

00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:05.839
Booty and Alan.

00:23:05.839 --> 00:23:07.440
So Alan was scared to death.

00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:09.759
So he's holding on the booty shirt tail.

00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:12.880
And we're debating on whether this.

00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:16.960
Wait a minute.

00:23:16.960 --> 00:23:22.480
We're debating on whether it's this is a guy in a costume or if it's a prop.

00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:23.119
Yes.

00:23:23.119 --> 00:23:24.559
I like not knowing.

00:23:24.559 --> 00:23:28.079
So we're standing there discussing this right in front of it.

00:23:28.079 --> 00:23:29.680
Right, right in front of the mummy.

00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:34.400
And it's about, he's the it's standing on a platform, so it's about eight foot tall.

00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:37.440
And uh, we told Booty, Booty's in the front.

00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:38.799
Andrew's behind me.

00:23:38.799 --> 00:23:39.440
For the rest of the room.

00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:40.240
Alan's in front of me.

00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:42.880
For the listeners, Booty Hester looks like bam bam bigolo.

00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:44.319
Yeah, he's around as he is tall.

00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:44.640
Right.

00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:45.759
Round as he is tall.

00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:48.000
Yeah, he's bald headed and he's fucking tripped too.

00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:50.160
Hey, it's Bert's brother that's been on here.

00:23:50.160 --> 00:23:51.119
Bert Hester, yeah.

00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:51.920
Yeah.

00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:55.920
So we tell we talk Booty into touching him.

00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:57.920
Well, you're not allowed to touch the actors, right?

00:23:57.920 --> 00:24:05.279
So Booty goes up to him and goes, he gets about an inch from him, and the guy goes, Booty fucking takes off with Alan attached to his ass.

00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:09.200
It's dragging Alan through the rest of the fucking haunted house.

00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:11.039
Me and Andrew are standing there laughing.

00:24:11.039 --> 00:24:14.160
The guy that's in the fucking mummy costume is laughing his ass off.

00:24:14.160 --> 00:24:18.319
He had to step down off the podium he was standing on because he's laughing so hard and taking breath.

00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:21.440
We finally catch up to Booty and Alan.

00:24:21.440 --> 00:24:23.440
Well, they done went out into the courtyard.

00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:24.880
Well, guess what's in the courtyard?

00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:27.200
The chainsaw guy, who Booty's also afraid of.

00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:31.200
So he drug Alan's ass through the grass and mud out.

00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:32.160
That was the end of it.

00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:34.720
When you go through the courtyard, that was the funniest shit.

00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:36.240
But do they do that shit anymore?

00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:38.160
Not from what I've seen so far.

00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:41.279
But I haven't been to anything since the haunted haunted barn.

00:24:41.279 --> 00:24:43.759
I haven't haunted barn in Fairview 30 years ago.

00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:44.799
15, 16.

00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:47.920
I think 16, because I went with Kyle Collins and Courtney and Michelle.

00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:49.359
And I like I remember driving Kyle's car.

00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:50.400
I don't know why I was driving.

00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:51.359
No, I was 15.

00:24:51.359 --> 00:24:54.079
I shouldn't have been driving Kyle's car, but I was.

00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:55.839
Um, I remember going to it then.

00:24:55.839 --> 00:25:03.839
That was the last time I ever went, but I remember at the haunted locker room when I was in fourth grade, I was going through and I was trying to impress a girl.

00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:07.359
And like I'm I'm I'm leading her through this like I'm a big man.

00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:12.799
And you know, there was a part in the locker room where you had to climb up this ramp, and it was like a little platform at a turn.

00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:20.480
You had to slide down, it was real tight quarters, and there was an opening at the top where the guy is there and he his purpose is to scare you.

00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:28.319
But he reached down, he grabbed me, and I just instinctively just go boom, uppercut him, and he grabbed me, he's like, You're getting kicked out of here.

00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:37.920
I was like, I didn't mean one of the awesome things that happened when we were kids here in town, Favorite Elementary School around Halloween, they had a carnival.

00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:47.680
Yeah, you remember that where you would go in different rooms and do different arts and crafts, or they would have like you could make buttons, like you know, buttons like you pin on yourself.

00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:49.920
Yeah, or you go in the next room, yeah.

00:25:49.920 --> 00:25:58.160
But they would do different things, or you'd have carnival games or you win shit, or you'd have and they're all giving out candy, but they never did it on Halloween, they never fucked with Halloween.

00:25:58.160 --> 00:26:00.400
It was always the week of Halloween on a weeknight.

00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:04.559
And I remember that Favorite Elementary doing that, and so but they've taken all that out.

00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:05.839
It's all trunk or treat now.

00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:15.680
Everything's trunk or treating stupid because they're trying to be inclusive to everything, and you know, the Christians are like, oh no, this is this paganism and all this stuff.

00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:24.799
Listen, I look, I'm a Christian and I I I I understand what they're saying, but at the same time, there there's no harm meant with this.

00:26:24.799 --> 00:26:28.079
It's like fucking kids running around getting candy, having a good time.

00:26:28.079 --> 00:26:28.640
Having a good time.

00:26:28.799 --> 00:26:33.759
Well, but also growing up in this small ass town, when we were younger, everybody fucking knew everybody.

00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:35.440
Did the churches ever say anything?

00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:42.960
No, no, but everybody went to church, but everybody still participated in most people, I'm not saying everybody, most people still participated in fucking Halloween.

00:26:43.279 --> 00:26:45.359
We didn't we didn't even trick-or-treat in Fairview.

00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:48.000
I don't think I don't think I've ever trick-or-treated in Fairview.

00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:58.000
I personally have never trick-or-treated in Fairview, but I take take my kids to Castleberry Farms, is where I mean I we went to our grandparents' house, mostly grand, because she lived in those condos.

00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:02.400
And when my kids were younger, we went to Sylvan Park because it was awesome.

00:27:02.400 --> 00:27:04.559
They shut down the roads, they have a good time.

00:27:05.039 --> 00:27:09.599
Well, like my my cousin Clarissa went to church at the Big Church of Christ on Overby.

00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:19.759
And I went trick-or-treating with them when we were kids because guess where they went to the thousand-member church people's houses.

00:27:19.759 --> 00:27:23.920
There's like a thousand members of and we went to all the church people's houses and trick-or-treating.

00:27:23.920 --> 00:27:24.319
Yeah.

00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:26.559
And they didn't, nobody had any issues with it.

00:27:26.559 --> 00:27:33.039
And then all of a sudden the church is uh like you're saying, like all the people are up in arms over religion and shit with Halloween, and I don't get it.

00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:35.599
I'm pretty happy my kids have outgrown trick-or-treating.

00:27:35.759 --> 00:27:46.559
Yeah, I will say that that well, it's so weird because when now that I have a grandchild and one on the way, it's not like I look forward to doing that with them.

00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:47.200
Right.

00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:50.640
But like, oh, I think I'm gonna be a much better grandfather than I was a father.

00:27:50.880 --> 00:27:52.079
Oh, yeah, yeah, for sure.

00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:52.799
A hundred percent.

00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:54.400
I told the boys that this weekend.

00:27:54.400 --> 00:27:56.960
I was like, just remember, when y'all have kids, they'll like me more than you do.

00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:57.599
Oh, yeah.

00:27:57.599 --> 00:27:59.279
Because Oliver's real mad at me right now.

00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:01.519
Also, I'm gonna like them more than I like you.

00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:07.599
Freya's at the age now where she's like, you know, like a little person and being cute and talking and all that.

00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:10.319
And I'm just I love it, and I can't get enough of it.

00:28:10.319 --> 00:28:22.319
But like, and it was fun when the kids were younger, but you're you're kind of seeing them every day in a you know, in a growing up, you know, there's no it's not like, oh, I haven't seen you in a little bit.

00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:24.000
How look how much fun we can have.

00:28:24.000 --> 00:28:27.839
It's like, and then you take them trigger treating, you're like, oh fuck, I gotta take them trick-or-treating.

00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:30.400
It's like it's funny because it's like once a year.

00:28:32.000 --> 00:28:36.880
I mean, even with like even with Sam, at least now he's old enough that like he can work on the cars with me.

00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:39.359
I can make I'm I don't actually have to do the work anymore.

00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:41.039
I can point at it and be like, you do that.

00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:42.160
I don't want to do it anymore.

00:28:42.240 --> 00:28:42.480
Yeah.

00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:43.920
In the vein of teaching him.

00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:44.640
Yes, yeah.

00:28:44.880 --> 00:28:50.559
I gave him a list of things that he needed to fix on the truck before he turned 16, which is coming up in a month.

00:28:50.799 --> 00:28:59.759
Well, I will say, guys, that I was trying to play this off like it's after Halloween when this episode comes out, but if you hadn't said anything, it would be fine.

00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:00.079
Right.

00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:01.599
Well, you're the one that's ruining it.

00:29:01.599 --> 00:29:02.480
You know what?

00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:10.559
Listen, I've got 43 episodes under my belt, and I will be the first to tell you that I don't know what the fuck I'm doing.

00:29:10.640 --> 00:29:11.359
I mean, it's fine.

00:29:11.359 --> 00:29:13.200
You guys are like, I know.

00:29:13.680 --> 00:29:14.160
We know.

00:29:14.240 --> 00:29:16.559
We know your 14 viewers know too.

00:29:16.880 --> 00:29:19.119
The first rule of podcasting is authenticity, Tim.

00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:24.240
Yeah, hey, I'm being authentic here and telling you that you guys fucking ruined my plan.

00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:26.160
But how did we ruin your plan?

00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:29.200
Because I was like, well, surely we won't talk about this shit.

00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:30.880
We'll find something else to talk about.

00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:33.440
The three of us that have a lifelong history together.

00:29:33.680 --> 00:29:35.759
Oh, you don't want to talk about Halloween at all.

00:29:35.759 --> 00:29:38.319
Well, I already talked about it on Saturday.

00:29:38.319 --> 00:29:39.119
Well, I don't know.

00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:42.160
I haven't listened to your Saturday podcast because you haven't posted it yet.

00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:45.039
So how are we supposed to have a list?

00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:45.759
I don't know.

00:29:46.000 --> 00:29:48.240
Because I do like like whatever you're gonna start over.

00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:50.319
Let's fucking just cut it, start the fuck over.

00:29:50.319 --> 00:29:51.200
No, it's fine.

00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:53.359
That's the that's the fun of uh recording.

00:29:53.599 --> 00:29:58.000
I like listening to your podcast with other people, then I can come and and dispute what they have to say.

00:29:58.000 --> 00:29:59.920
Like Daniel disputing that he is, in fact, a bitch.

00:30:01.200 --> 00:30:03.039
Well, I'm glad you made sure to fit that in twice.

00:30:03.039 --> 00:30:04.960
All right, we'll get we'll go off Halloween.

00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:08.160
Should I just cut this whole Halloween part off?

00:30:08.160 --> 00:30:13.839
Maybe maybe paste it into the one that I'm releasing on Wednesday.

00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:18.319
And then they'll be like, I I haven't I have a new hold on the camera.

00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:21.759
Like he's in the middle of his podcast with with with his guests.

00:30:21.759 --> 00:30:22.720
With Nikki and Daniel.

00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:26.319
And it's like it cuts to just Tim for a second.

00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:30.400
He's like, and I would like to throw special announcement.

00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:32.559
I'm gonna splice this section.

00:30:32.559 --> 00:30:33.920
No, I won't say it.

00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:36.960
I'll just like it'll just like we're talking all of a sudden.

00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:39.759
It's like instead of Nikki being there, Daniel being there.

00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:44.480
Can you do like a PowerPoint like transition?

00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:49.039
It's like two skinny people turns into like two fat hairy men.

00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:55.519
Nikki like turns fades into stars and I zoom in here from a rainbow.

00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:58.160
Anyway, so what were you gonna say?

00:30:58.160 --> 00:31:01.279
So to change the subject since you want to go fuck off Halloween.

00:31:01.279 --> 00:31:09.119
Uh can we just agree that Mike is Russell Freeman?

00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:11.359
They're twins.

00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:14.400
Maybe he sounds just like him, he talks just like Russell.

00:31:14.640 --> 00:31:15.920
That may be true.

00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:18.559
I think you should have a podcast with Mike Riley.

00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:20.799
And well, I invited Russell a couple weeks ago.

00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:22.319
He's he's coming out here soon.

00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:33.599
So maybe I need to put Mike on with him and let the viewers every if I'm just listening to the podcast on YouTube, like in the background while I'm working, I forget sometimes that it's Mike and Russell Freeman's.

00:31:34.160 --> 00:31:35.680
I'm not even joking.

00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:38.960
I didn't think Russell would be interested in doing it when I texted him.

00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:40.000
He's like, Yeah, I'll do that.

00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:40.799
That sounds like fun.

00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:43.599
I haven't seen that fucker in like, I don't know, three years, four years, something.

00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:47.200
My favorite one, does he tell you when he texted Ben to ask Ben to be on here and what Ben said?

00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:48.559
Oh, yeah, they fucking moved.

00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:54.960
Nobody fucking I think that the last podcast that we've done, I just texted him because I was trying to round up some guests.

00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:56.319
We were like, What the fuck?

00:31:56.319 --> 00:31:58.319
Yeah, moved to Orlando.

00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:02.960
Yeah, what the fuck happened to to your farm and shit that you loved in Kingston?

00:32:02.960 --> 00:32:03.920
And yeah, anyway.

00:32:03.920 --> 00:32:04.400
I don't know.

00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:10.400
I mean I do have to say also um to Kevin Curly.

00:32:10.400 --> 00:32:12.160
Um, sorry about his mom.

00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:13.279
She's an awesome lady.

00:32:13.680 --> 00:32:14.240
Yeah, she was growing up.

00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:16.640
R I P.

00:32:16.640 --> 00:32:20.319
Kevin's mom for sure, but Kevin, we we love you and we're taking away.

00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:24.480
She was well, we're after.

00:32:25.359 --> 00:32:30.400
Sorry, sorry, I thought about I thought about that because we were talking about old friends and now we now we now we feel bad.

00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:35.839
It's like the only time I have a the only time my my heart works is for someone that I don't know at all.

00:32:35.839 --> 00:32:47.839
It's like my grandfather's like laying on his deathbed and we're sitting here, you know, laughing about it, not laughing about the situation, but then someone that I don't know, like like a tear falls from my mind.

00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:50.559
Did you not ever meet as Kevin's mom?

00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:54.640
No, I know Kevin's mom, but I didn't know her like personally, like we hung out and shit.

00:32:54.640 --> 00:32:57.599
Oh no, I used to go over there when they lived on Southern Road.

00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:01.680
I just have a tendency to be inappropriate, and I just thought that I would censor.

00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:02.720
No, not you.

00:33:03.119 --> 00:33:05.599
I just I that's like the theme.

00:33:05.599 --> 00:33:17.279
Everybody like when they see Jess is coming on the podcast, they see the little theme, the little theme thing comes on and the music plays, and then they sees me, and then as soon as they see Jess Von, they're like, Oh shit, here we go.

00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:21.519
One day I will be fired due to this podcast.

00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:24.000
That may be true, me and you both.

00:33:24.000 --> 00:33:25.119
I didn't mean to fuck up the mood.

00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:26.319
I was just saying well, you did.

00:33:27.839 --> 00:33:28.640
Now you gotta bring it back.

00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:35.119
All right, what from our childhood of 40 plus years of knowing each other, surely to God, we can find something to talk about.

00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:45.759
I remember Eric showing me um was it yeah, I think it was you, Eric, and we might have talked about this before, but when we were uh we were younger and Barry Runk lived next door to me.

00:33:45.759 --> 00:33:46.480
Yeah.

00:33:46.480 --> 00:33:48.319
And we went over what did I do?

00:33:48.319 --> 00:33:56.079
We went over to his we went over to his barn over there, and I think that you or somebody had like a porno picture.

00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:58.640
It's like all folded up.

00:33:58.640 --> 00:33:59.759
It was like a woman.

00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:02.880
It was the first time I'd seen like a naked woman.

00:34:02.880 --> 00:34:04.480
Tim saw some boobs.

00:34:04.480 --> 00:34:10.559
I did, and I was shocked by what I saw, and I was like, How did you where did you get this?

00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:17.199
And that led to you renting porn to say, says the man who started renting porn to everybody in the neighborhood.

00:34:17.199 --> 00:34:18.400
Did I rent porn?

00:34:18.400 --> 00:34:21.199
Do you not that your dad recorded it at work?

00:34:21.199 --> 00:34:23.360
My dad didn't all the VHS works.

00:34:23.519 --> 00:34:25.760
I don't know why that makes it worse, but it does.

00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:26.880
That is kind of weird.

00:34:27.199 --> 00:34:29.199
On VHS and you rented it to us.

00:34:29.519 --> 00:34:34.559
And you remember we were cleaning out dad's house and we found it, and we're like, this is the shit that I used to rent from Tim.

00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:35.519
That's amazing.

00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:36.719
I have no record.

00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:37.519
Not at all.

00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:40.400
It almost like that memory was pulled out of my head.

00:34:40.400 --> 00:34:43.440
But I will say, kudos to old Tim.

00:34:43.440 --> 00:34:48.159
Seeing a need, I mean, we were like we were like 13.

00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:51.039
Me and Jason Phillips were your best customers for one.

00:34:51.039 --> 00:34:54.880
And there was one that we didn't return to you, and you like threatened us if we didn't bring it back to you.

00:34:54.880 --> 00:34:59.039
You're gonna tell our parents if we didn't bring your porno back to you.

00:34:59.599 --> 00:35:01.840
I'm like trying to go through the old Rolodex in the mind.

00:35:01.840 --> 00:35:04.159
The Rolodex of fucked up shit you've done in your life.

00:35:04.159 --> 00:35:04.480
Yeah.

00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:08.639
Well, thank you for telling me that because now I'll try to think on it to see if I remember it.

00:35:08.800 --> 00:35:10.079
But I was like, Where'd you get this porn?

00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:11.599
He's like, I rented it from your brother.

00:35:12.559 --> 00:35:14.239
So I was renting porn.

00:35:14.239 --> 00:35:18.000
That your dad taped off the Playboy channel at the National Guard.

00:35:18.000 --> 00:35:20.480
R.I.P.

00:35:20.480 --> 00:35:21.039
Freeman.

00:35:21.039 --> 00:35:21.760
R.I.P.

00:35:21.760 --> 00:35:22.559
Freeman.

00:35:22.559 --> 00:35:29.760
Because we were like, oh, this is much better than watching HBO channels through all the static and trying to catch a glimpse of a dick or something.

00:35:29.760 --> 00:35:31.119
Hilarious, man.

00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:37.679
Well, for me it was a dig, so I'm starting to get worried about myself because I don't remember certain things.

00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:41.599
And it's like I I would give anything to remember my thinking on that.

00:35:41.599 --> 00:35:43.840
We've done some fucked up shit in our life.

00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:45.039
It's completely unacceptable.

00:35:45.039 --> 00:35:46.639
It's almost like I've blocked it out.

00:35:46.719 --> 00:35:48.400
But I'm getting to it's not just you.

00:35:48.400 --> 00:35:49.760
It's I have the same thing.

00:35:49.760 --> 00:35:54.880
Because I'll have people come up to me who's like, Oh, you don't remember because that's that one party at so-and-so's house.

00:35:54.880 --> 00:35:57.280
I'm like, you know how many fucking parties I've been to in my life?

00:35:57.280 --> 00:35:59.519
You know how much I drank at parties and got high?

00:35:59.679 --> 00:36:00.800
I've been to six parties.

00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:03.679
Well, it concerns me because like uh here later.

00:36:04.000 --> 00:36:07.119
It's such a good idea, and you're like, I can't believe I thought it was a fantastic idea.

00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:10.719
It's fantastic, it was a fantastic idea, and I'm glad that I did it.

00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:12.079
And you're welcome for this service.

00:36:12.079 --> 00:36:13.920
For the record, they were VHS.

00:36:14.159 --> 00:36:14.880
They were VHS.

00:36:14.880 --> 00:36:15.920
It was young.

00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:19.840
And so, you know, they were horribly recorded because they're recorded off a channel.

00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:20.320
Yeah.

00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:23.280
You know, and we talk about why the National Guard had the playboy.

00:36:24.400 --> 00:36:25.199
You know what's funny?

00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:38.880
Because back then it's like people don't understand what it was like back then, or at least the younger people don't understand that, like, you know, you didn't have, and of course, old people, if they're older people, if they're listening to this, they're like, these motherfuckers don't even know what they're talking about.

00:36:38.880 --> 00:36:45.760
But like when we were growing up, my dad used to like, I don't know, I was probably 15 or 16 at this point.

00:36:45.760 --> 00:36:51.840
Like, he would get this satellite uh box and he would get the cards flashed.

00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:54.639
Yes, we could have all the channels.

00:36:54.639 --> 00:37:06.320
And I remember, and so, you know, back when you only have like the normal, even just the normal Viacom or Comcast channels, it's like you had 50 of them or 100 channels or whatever it was.

00:37:06.320 --> 00:37:10.000
This is before now, it's like there's a fucking channel for every single little thing.

00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:15.840
But even when we had all that, it's like you don't really watch anything other than the normal shit that you watch.

00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:18.000
So there's just like no point in even having it.

00:37:18.159 --> 00:37:34.320
I remember one time um I rode with you, and we went to the National Guard to see your dad for some reason, and he left us in his office because he had to go do something, and he was gone for like an hour and a half or something, and we're just sitting there, and you're like, look at this shit.

00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:36.960
You changed it to the Playboy channel, the TV.

00:37:37.280 --> 00:37:42.480
All right, I don't have any recollection of this, and I don't normally forget things.

00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:44.639
Yeah, yeah, I don't know.

00:37:44.639 --> 00:37:51.440
I I wish I could remember that, but what I was gonna say a minute ago is like I'm noticing as I get older, hey, leave the door open, it's fun.

00:37:51.679 --> 00:37:52.320
I hate you right now.

00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:53.599
I'm smelling some nicotine.

00:37:53.760 --> 00:37:55.440
I can't get a little hot in there.

00:37:55.440 --> 00:37:56.320
I don't want that.

00:37:56.320 --> 00:37:58.800
What it you he calls it a doucheflute.

00:37:58.800 --> 00:38:00.159
He does he does it a doucheflute.

00:38:00.159 --> 00:38:01.039
Doucheflute.

00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:03.920
But like I'm having trouble like coming up with words.

00:38:03.920 --> 00:38:15.760
And so I wasn't really worried about it when it started happening about six months or a year ago, but I'm starting to get more concerned about it because I can't recall like normal words, like what I'm about to say.

00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:17.599
So I'm starting to get concerned.

00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:24.719
So I'm letting you guys know that if I get too fucked up and I don't remember shit, it's Nikki's problem, not mine.

00:38:25.440 --> 00:38:26.880
Yeah, it is Nikki's problem.

00:38:26.880 --> 00:38:28.239
You're also middle-aged, sir.

00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:34.639
I just I just think about like I I have memories for my childhood that I'm not convinced actually happened.

00:38:34.719 --> 00:38:38.159
No, it's like I I can't, I I can't recall them, is the problem.

00:38:38.159 --> 00:38:40.880
I wish that I could go in and pick these memories out and listen to the case.

00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:53.519
I think that you and I were talking about this not too long ago, and and I was recalling we used to spend at least one week of our summers when we were kids at like Lake Junalesca in North Carolina with Mildred and some random Yeah, I remember that.

00:38:53.679 --> 00:38:57.679
I remember she had a fucking pet rock, and I just thought it was the best thing in the world.

00:38:58.960 --> 00:39:05.199
But like my kids don't get this experience, but like that that's like a core memory for me.

00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:11.199
But then not too long ago, you and I were talking about this, and you didn't remember, and I'm like, did this shit really happen?

00:39:11.199 --> 00:39:16.719
I don't I don't know if it was a real memory in my life.

00:39:16.880 --> 00:39:18.320
Here, let's just pause it right here.

00:39:18.320 --> 00:39:20.239
Well, I don't remember what we were talking about.

00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:21.599
We were talking about our memories.

00:39:21.599 --> 00:39:22.239
Oh, yeah.

00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:24.159
So you do remember Lake Gunaluska.

00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:24.800
I do remember that.

00:39:24.800 --> 00:39:27.920
So that's not a figment of my imagination, but like where the hell is that?

00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:30.320
It's in North Carolina, just in in the Smoky Mountains.

00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:31.679
It's this beautiful lake.

00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:35.440
It was it was beautiful, and that's what I was saying like a minute ago.

00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:43.199
It's like I have these grand memories of like this place was massive because I remember we stayed upstairs, I guess it was like the attic area.

00:39:43.199 --> 00:39:54.719
Yeah, but like but they lived in Florida, yeah, during the during the non-hurricane season, yes, and so if we went to that place now, I bet it would be like as big as our house or something.

00:39:54.719 --> 00:39:57.840
But I remember it being like grand and big back then.

00:39:58.000 --> 00:40:00.079
I feel like it was a Methodist colony.

00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:01.440
It may have been, actually.

00:40:01.440 --> 00:40:06.159
I think it was actually it may have been because we were Methodist, apparently.

00:40:06.159 --> 00:40:06.880
Really?

00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:12.559
Uh well because we went to Westview Methodist Church, but I've never been baptized, so I don't know if I would count as anything.

00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:15.440
I don't remember you ever going to church.

00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:16.480
He used to go outside.

00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:19.119
CEO's Christmas Easter only.

00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:29.679
That was my family took that's actually not true because I was talking to Caitlin about this the other day because we were talking about what she used to have to do at church, and you and Nathan used to go to dudes.

00:40:29.679 --> 00:40:31.280
Do you remember dudes?

00:40:31.280 --> 00:40:34.559
No, I have absolutely no recollection of that at all.

00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:36.320
The Westview Methodists they used to do.

00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:40.800
I need to fucking hang out with you and let's talk about like old memories because I don't remember any of this shit.

00:40:41.039 --> 00:40:43.119
I don't I don't forget, I gotta I have a great memory.

00:40:43.119 --> 00:40:43.599
I do too.

00:40:43.599 --> 00:40:44.800
I have no short-term memories.

00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:46.559
Have been pulled out.

00:40:46.800 --> 00:40:47.119
All right.

00:40:47.119 --> 00:40:58.320
So when we were kids, you and Nathan were teenage, y'all were almost teenagers, and obviously I was not because I'm the youngest, but y'all used to they started this thing that was like Wednesday and Saturday nights, and it was called dudes.

00:40:58.320 --> 00:41:01.280
It was for like teenagers, like young teenagers.

00:41:01.360 --> 00:41:01.599
Yeah.

00:41:01.760 --> 00:41:05.039
And you and Nathan used to go to it, and I never got to go to it because I was too young.

00:41:05.039 --> 00:41:07.199
But it was like their Wednesday and Saturday nights.

00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:08.079
Yeah, maybe I remember.

00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:08.719
Yeah, a little bit.

00:41:08.880 --> 00:41:12.719
And I was always mad that I didn't get to go to dudes and I had to go to actual like Bible study.

00:41:12.719 --> 00:41:14.239
And I didn't want to do that shit.

00:41:14.239 --> 00:41:18.000
And so I, you know, eventually we just stopped going to church.

00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:20.800
Like we just remember, I don't even know what happened.

00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:21.760
We just stopped going to church.

00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:28.239
We only went there every now and then anyway, and that was when our mom was like getting mad, but we went more often than you remember.

00:41:28.239 --> 00:41:31.360
I don't think I don't remember going very often at all.

00:41:31.360 --> 00:41:33.920
Well, you're fucking wrong.

00:41:33.920 --> 00:41:36.719
That may be true, James.

00:41:36.719 --> 00:41:37.920
Welcome in.

00:41:37.920 --> 00:41:38.559
Hello, darling.

00:41:38.800 --> 00:41:40.079
He's always fucking wrong.

00:41:41.760 --> 00:41:43.840
I think that she shows the ice in your face.

00:41:43.840 --> 00:41:45.679
I thought she was coming over here to give me a kiss.

00:41:48.159 --> 00:41:49.679
No, she wanted your microphone.

00:41:49.679 --> 00:41:56.239
The only time I ever went to church when I was younger was uh vacation Bible school because you got free tie-dye shirts and shit.

00:41:56.480 --> 00:42:04.639
So I never went to vacation Bible school with at Westview Methodist, but I used to go to vacation Bible school with Luke Easterling.

00:42:04.639 --> 00:42:08.159
And and I went I went one time or two times with y'all.

00:42:08.159 --> 00:42:10.800
And I don't remember any of it, but I remember one thing.

00:42:11.119 --> 00:42:11.519
What?

00:42:11.679 --> 00:42:18.559
All I ever wanted in this world was a pair of Jordans to this day, up until about six months ago, I've never owned a pair of Jordans.

00:42:18.559 --> 00:42:23.440
Six months ago I got a pair because Sam outgrew them and he never wore them, so I stole them.

00:42:23.920 --> 00:42:25.599
You're getting hand-me-downs from your son.

00:42:25.679 --> 00:42:28.800
I'm getting well now I can't because now his feet are too big.

00:42:28.800 --> 00:42:29.519
So I can't.

00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:30.960
You haven't seen Sam in a while.

00:42:30.960 --> 00:42:32.079
He is massive.

00:42:32.079 --> 00:42:33.199
He's 6'4.

00:42:33.199 --> 00:42:34.559
Massive.

00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:38.159
Anyway, but I got a pair of hand-me-down Jordans from you.

00:42:39.039 --> 00:42:41.119
Well, they were fake Jordans.

00:42:41.119 --> 00:42:43.199
Possibly, but that's not the point of the story.

00:42:43.199 --> 00:42:44.639
I'll tell you that story in a second.

00:42:44.960 --> 00:42:47.199
The point of the story, there were the black ones, they were Jordan 4s.

00:42:47.199 --> 00:42:48.239
I know what they are now.

00:42:48.239 --> 00:42:53.599
I didn't know what they were then, but they were Jordan 4s, original Jordan 4s, apparently fake.

00:42:53.599 --> 00:43:00.239
And so I went to VBS and I was like, man, my fucking my fucking legs are itching.

00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:03.280
Turns out they were full of fucking C tics.

00:43:03.280 --> 00:43:03.760
Oh yeah.

00:43:03.760 --> 00:43:06.320
And I and they threw that.

00:43:06.320 --> 00:43:13.360
They threw them away, and they're sitting there with scotch tape, getting all these ticks off my ankles, and I had to go home fucking barefoot.

00:43:13.599 --> 00:43:16.159
That's because I was in the woods with them and I took them off.

00:43:16.159 --> 00:43:18.400
And let me tell you about those Jordans.

00:43:18.400 --> 00:43:21.840
So apparently the Jordans are also a core memory for you.

00:43:21.840 --> 00:43:23.440
Well, I remembered this.

00:43:23.440 --> 00:43:28.159
So like anytime I have a memory that I can latch on to and tell you that I want to tell you.

00:43:28.159 --> 00:43:30.719
So what what how old were you when that happened?

00:43:30.719 --> 00:43:33.840
Oh, Luke and I had to be 10 or 11.

00:43:33.840 --> 00:43:34.400
Okay.

00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:36.960
So I was about 12 or 13.

00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:38.719
And so I was playing basketball.

00:43:38.719 --> 00:43:41.280
I played basketball for two or three years.

00:43:41.280 --> 00:43:42.320
Two or two or three seasons.

00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:48.480
Two or three seasons at the at the uh recreation center here in Fairview.

00:43:48.480 --> 00:43:49.440
Um, I need you.

00:43:49.440 --> 00:43:50.159
You can continue.

00:43:50.159 --> 00:43:51.199
Actually, can we pause?

00:43:51.199 --> 00:43:52.239
Yeah, pause.

00:43:52.239 --> 00:43:56.960
So anyway, I uh you were about 10 or 11.

00:43:56.960 --> 00:43:58.000
I was 12 or 13.

00:43:58.000 --> 00:43:59.440
I played basketball.

00:43:59.440 --> 00:44:03.920
And so I wasn't very good at quote unquote basketball.

00:44:03.920 --> 00:44:06.239
I was like the one that nobody wanted to play.

00:44:06.239 --> 00:44:09.840
So Alex Prince and Theo Lankford like led the team.

00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:11.440
They were like the fucking team.

00:44:11.440 --> 00:44:21.519
But anyway, everybody on the team like had Air Jordans, and I was like, I want some fucking Air Jordan, so that'll help me be a better basketball player.

00:44:21.679 --> 00:44:24.559
It's like the McElmore song, they'll make me jump so high.

00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:33.920
They may make me jump so high, they may not, but all I knew is at that point I needed to have Air Jordans enabled to so that I was able to up my game.

00:44:34.159 --> 00:44:35.760
You were their core demographic.

00:44:35.920 --> 00:44:36.159
Yes.

00:44:37.760 --> 00:44:42.079
And so I think I told I would say fat white kid, but he was we were a real skinny as kids.

00:44:42.559 --> 00:44:50.320
I I said some of this story in another episode, but the the part that I was telling in that episode is how somebody called me bubble butt and it stuck with me till the time.

00:44:50.480 --> 00:44:51.360
I remember that.

00:44:52.400 --> 00:44:57.599
But anyway, so I told my dad, I was like, I I told my mom and dad, I was like, I I gotta get some Air Jordans.

00:44:57.599 --> 00:44:58.800
I gotta get some Air Jordans.

00:44:58.800 --> 00:45:04.079
So we go to fucking Foot Locker or you know, whatever's in the mall, because that's how you had to buy shoes back then.

00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:10.320
And they had the Air Jordans that were like 150 bucks or whatever they cost back then, which was fucking expensive.

00:45:10.320 --> 00:45:11.599
It's still expensive.

00:45:11.599 --> 00:45:26.079
And so as a parent, as a parent now, no understanding the situation that they were in, it's like they weren't gonna pay $150, but I had to have some fucking Air Jordans because they're the kids were making fun of me because I didn't have Air Jordans.

00:45:26.239 --> 00:45:29.199
Because you had kids or LA LA lights.

00:45:29.440 --> 00:45:30.400
I did have some LA lights.

00:45:30.559 --> 00:45:31.119
Shut the fuck up.

00:45:31.119 --> 00:45:32.000
Those were cool.

00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:33.199
LA lights were awesome.

00:45:33.199 --> 00:45:34.559
You were in the same fucking boat he was.

00:45:34.800 --> 00:45:37.519
I'm not, I'm not, I mean, I'm just saying that's what we had.

00:45:37.599 --> 00:45:39.599
I'm not so we go to the store.

00:45:39.599 --> 00:45:40.960
I wasn't any better.

00:45:40.960 --> 00:45:44.000
So we go more kids for Fairview.

00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:49.840
We go to the store and they have the Air Jordans, and I'm and I'm my dad even like let me try them on and shit.

00:45:49.840 --> 00:45:54.400
And some of us, like, no, don't even fucking let me try them because you're not gonna buy them for me.

00:45:54.400 --> 00:45:55.760
Freeman torturing me.

00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:56.880
Freeman torturing me.

00:45:56.880 --> 00:45:58.400
RIP Freeman 8.

00:45:58.400 --> 00:46:05.679
So they have next to the air, or actually the the guy was like, I was like, come on, please, can I get these?

00:46:05.679 --> 00:46:06.639
And he's like, oh no.

00:46:06.639 --> 00:46:12.719
And so the guy's like, now everybody he was so much nicer than you, and like he wouldn't even take me to look at them.

00:46:12.719 --> 00:46:14.719
Every everybody's probably like, what?

00:46:14.719 --> 00:46:16.960
Somebody helped you, somebody helped you get shoes.

00:46:16.960 --> 00:46:18.960
Well, back then they helped you get shoes.

00:46:18.960 --> 00:46:27.760
So the guy's like, we have these not they're made by Nike and they're still still Air Jordans, but they're fake Air Jordans.

00:46:27.760 --> 00:46:29.519
They're not air, they're just Jordan.

00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:31.599
They were like the $50 alternative.

00:46:32.000 --> 00:46:34.239
I mean, we're talking 1990-ish.

00:46:34.239 --> 00:46:35.760
Yeah, 90-ish.

00:46:36.239 --> 00:46:38.079
And so Air was too expensive.

00:46:38.079 --> 00:46:38.960
They were 50 bucks.

00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:40.559
Pumping the fucking heel.

00:46:40.880 --> 00:46:42.800
So I so I got I got those.

00:46:42.800 --> 00:46:46.639
My dad let me get those Air Jordans, which was really expensive back then.

00:46:46.639 --> 00:46:57.360
Because I remember my dad saying, Well, we can get you these shoes, but I'm gonna need you to work it off doing one of these armory parties where we had to clean up after all.

00:46:57.760 --> 00:46:59.679
Have we ever talked about the armory parties on this?

00:46:59.840 --> 00:47:00.239
We have.

00:47:00.320 --> 00:47:00.880
Oh, okay.

00:47:01.119 --> 00:47:03.679
But so they was I got offensive.

00:47:03.679 --> 00:47:07.039
I got them, I got them, and I got them, and then I went to practice.

00:47:07.039 --> 00:47:10.559
I went to Lord.

00:47:11.679 --> 00:47:13.360
I was there with y'all for quite a few of those.

00:47:13.360 --> 00:47:15.679
So sorry, Layoshian people are great, but they stink.

00:47:15.679 --> 00:47:16.239
Anyway, go ahead.

00:47:16.639 --> 00:47:19.119
I went Lord.

00:47:19.119 --> 00:47:20.960
I'm not the offensive one.

00:47:20.960 --> 00:47:21.360
That's hard.

00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:25.119
Get a drink or talking about Gene for a second.

00:47:25.119 --> 00:47:27.440
This motherfucker's ready to be racist and shit.

00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:30.320
Not being racist, just say so.

00:47:30.320 --> 00:47:33.039
Anyway, the ending of my story is not even that good.

00:47:33.039 --> 00:47:36.639
So I go to practice the next day and I'm fucking like, I got my Air Jordans on.

00:47:36.639 --> 00:47:38.800
And like in my mind, they're air fucking Jordans.

00:47:38.800 --> 00:47:39.679
But they knew.

00:47:39.679 --> 00:47:40.320
They knew.

00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:42.239
And they made fun of me.

00:47:42.400 --> 00:47:43.280
So here's the funny thing.

00:47:43.280 --> 00:47:48.559
I I bought these Air Jordan ones for Sam like a year ago, maybe two years ago at this point.

00:47:48.559 --> 00:47:52.559
And I never once saw him wear them.

00:47:52.559 --> 00:47:56.239
And so like I went and bought him a new pair of shoes and I was buying them a size 13.

00:47:56.239 --> 00:47:57.760
And I was like, hey Sam.

00:47:57.760 --> 00:48:01.199
I'm buying you a size 13.

00:48:01.199 --> 00:48:04.800
That means those size 12s aren't fitting you anymore.

00:48:04.800 --> 00:48:05.840
Oh, I still wear them.

00:48:05.840 --> 00:48:08.880
I still and Oliver goes, He's never fucking worn that.

00:48:08.880 --> 00:48:10.960
He's never worn them.

00:48:10.960 --> 00:48:14.239
So when I went to pick him up one time, I was like, Where are those Jordans?

00:48:14.239 --> 00:48:15.679
They've never been worn.

00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:16.400
Not once.

00:48:16.400 --> 00:48:24.800
I spent so much money on these Air Jordan ones, and I will say they're the most uncomfortable shoe I've ever put on my foot.

00:48:24.800 --> 00:48:28.079
Like I don't like I understand people wear them for the style.

00:48:28.639 --> 00:48:30.480
I don't understand the Air Jordans thing.

00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:41.920
Up you know, like I had yeah, I was interested in it for the this was before they had like uh versions, like, oh, this is 1990 version or 91 or like the fours or however the the naming scheme is on it.

00:48:41.920 --> 00:48:47.599
But it's funny because Hayden bought Jack a pair of Air Jordans last year for Christmas.

00:48:47.599 --> 00:48:51.679
And but if he was able to get them, they're the ones that nobody wants, is what I've learned.

00:48:51.679 --> 00:49:01.840
Well, the thing is though, is Jack was like, you know, Jack didn't give a shit about it, but Hayden thought that, you know, because in Hayden's mind it was like the best gift ever, like because it's what he would want.

00:49:01.840 --> 00:49:05.920
So you have to look at it in that that perspective, but like I don't give a shit about anything.

00:49:06.159 --> 00:49:08.320
Respect to people who give a shit about tennis shoes.

00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:11.679
I'm I'm not what you would call a sneakerhead, but ain't it a whole fucking case?

00:49:11.679 --> 00:49:12.239
Is that what they call them?

00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:13.599
Sneaker heads the whole culture.

00:49:13.599 --> 00:49:18.639
Rico is a huge, I mean, he has a storage unit full of shoes that he has never worn.

00:49:18.639 --> 00:49:19.840
Why why buy them?

00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:21.199
I don't know.

00:49:21.199 --> 00:49:26.079
You know, I get I I'm not even gonna I'm not even gonna throw shade because there's shit that I do that.

00:49:26.639 --> 00:49:27.679
Yeah, absolutely.

00:49:27.679 --> 00:49:32.239
I mean, I've got ten thousand dollars worth of bullshit.

00:49:32.239 --> 00:49:33.280
Yeah, yeah.

00:49:33.280 --> 00:49:38.000
And so so Rico bought me the shoes that I'm wearing right now.

00:49:38.000 --> 00:49:42.719
And when I came over to the last Well, throw them up here so we can see them.

00:49:42.719 --> 00:49:44.719
They're just vans, they're they're not Nikes.

00:49:44.719 --> 00:49:45.920
Throw that fat ass up here.

00:49:45.920 --> 00:49:50.159
They're vans, they orange, they orange, and and what happened here?

00:49:50.159 --> 00:49:54.079
So I let Rico come over and use my garage to work on his cars and stuff.

00:49:54.079 --> 00:49:58.400
And and I was looking, I went to the van's website because I was looking for some more slides.

00:49:58.400 --> 00:50:00.480
All I wear is vans outside of work.

00:50:00.480 --> 00:50:02.559
It's just what I've always worn.

00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:05.360
And I these came up, they're like the special edition.

00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:06.880
I'm like, oh, I'm gonna buy those.

00:50:06.880 --> 00:50:08.800
I was like, ooh, but they're $85.

00:50:08.800 --> 00:50:11.039
So I'm not gonna buy them.

00:50:11.039 --> 00:50:12.559
And then the next thing I know, they showed up.

00:50:12.559 --> 00:50:17.920
He's like, This is how I'm thanking you for letting me work on my car at your house and help me with it.

00:50:18.000 --> 00:50:19.840
That's all that's why would you specify that?

00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:25.840
Because I was sitting here thinking, I'm your gay best friend since we were like five, and I've never fucking bought you shoes, and I would never buy you shoes.

00:50:25.840 --> 00:50:26.400
But it makes sense.

00:50:26.400 --> 00:50:27.920
That's like the fucking gayest thing ever.

00:50:28.079 --> 00:50:29.599
Well, it makes sense when you know he's a secret.

00:50:29.840 --> 00:50:32.559
Hey, attention, everybody, from the gay man.

00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:34.800
He said that was the gayest fucking thing ever.

00:50:35.039 --> 00:50:36.639
So hold on, that's not even the important part.

00:50:36.639 --> 00:50:37.599
That's not what I'm talking about.

00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:39.519
It gets even gayer, I feel it.

00:50:40.000 --> 00:50:44.159
So I I got dressed last time I came out here, I wore these, but I was just wearing this.

00:50:44.159 --> 00:50:51.280
Yeah, and then Caitlin and I went out one day and I just put on fucking I didn't like I don't know how to match colors.

00:50:51.280 --> 00:50:53.119
You're colorblind, so yeah, that makes sense.

00:50:53.119 --> 00:50:56.159
I'm not necessarily I wouldn't say I'm colorblind, I'm just I have no common sense.

00:50:56.159 --> 00:50:57.199
Color stupid.

00:50:57.199 --> 00:50:58.320
I thought you were colorblind.

00:50:58.320 --> 00:51:04.320
I always thought I was, but now I'm not convinced that my teenage years and my early 20s make much sense.

00:51:04.320 --> 00:51:08.559
So I think that I think the truth is I'm just stupid.

00:51:08.559 --> 00:51:10.159
My parents just lied to them.

00:51:10.159 --> 00:51:12.400
Apparently, because I I would like those.

00:51:12.400 --> 00:51:15.840
Oh, because we used to argue about what the color of some things were.

00:51:15.840 --> 00:51:16.960
Maybe I am.

00:51:16.960 --> 00:51:18.079
I don't fucking know.

00:51:18.079 --> 00:51:27.360
Anyway, so I put on this shirt and it's like some stupid graffiti shirt or whatever, and I put on these shoes, and Caitlin's, I was like, how do I look?

00:51:27.360 --> 00:51:34.800
Because Caitlin hates these fucking shoes because they're orange on orange on orange, but they're like a special edition, like skater, whatever.

00:51:34.800 --> 00:51:36.320
I don't I don't even know who the skater is.

00:51:36.320 --> 00:51:37.760
I just saw them, I just saw them.

00:51:39.840 --> 00:51:40.400
Yeah, exactly.

00:51:40.960 --> 00:51:43.199
I just saw them, I was like, those look pretty badass.

00:51:43.199 --> 00:51:48.239
I would like to have them as I have like five pairs of vans, and I don't have any orange ones.

00:51:48.239 --> 00:51:50.880
I look at Caitlin, I'm like, well, how do I look?

00:51:50.880 --> 00:51:53.119
Because we're going out on a fancy dinner.

00:51:53.119 --> 00:51:55.760
She's like, You look like your Rico's friend.

00:51:55.760 --> 00:51:57.519
I was like, all right.

00:51:57.519 --> 00:51:59.679
So we got to work, Rico's bitch.

00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:08.000
We went back to work like the next day, and and I was like, Rico, call Caitlin and ask her what I look like on Saturday.

00:52:08.000 --> 00:52:12.400
I look like I look like I belonged with a stylish black man.

00:52:12.639 --> 00:52:14.159
A stylish black man.

00:52:14.159 --> 00:52:15.519
I don't know about that.

00:52:15.519 --> 00:52:20.400
I resp I respect black men for that for doing the whole like color coordinating thing.

00:52:20.400 --> 00:52:21.280
They're amazing at it.

00:52:21.519 --> 00:52:22.719
You can color coordinate too.

00:52:22.719 --> 00:52:27.599
No, but like we're I got it, I got it in there.

00:52:27.760 --> 00:52:29.119
What telling him that he's gay?

00:52:29.119 --> 00:52:29.599
He already knows.

00:52:29.840 --> 00:52:31.440
No, it's not that he knows what I'm talking about.

00:52:31.440 --> 00:52:32.800
You just shut the fuck up.

00:52:33.119 --> 00:52:33.440
Okay.

00:52:34.559 --> 00:52:36.159
But no, I respect black men for that.

00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:42.079
Like they have really good style where they color coordinate the shoes and everything, and they always look they look good.

00:52:42.239 --> 00:52:49.760
I remember one of the first days that Rico like came into my office, and like he he and I he and I and Alex all share an office.

00:52:49.760 --> 00:52:54.559
And Rico was looking at the ugliest fucking hat I've ever seen in my life.

00:52:54.559 --> 00:52:57.119
And he's like, Man, look at his lips.

00:52:57.119 --> 00:52:59.199
Which I'm just kidding.

00:52:59.199 --> 00:53:00.239
Racist.

00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:03.599
He's like, he's like, man, this hat, I have to have this hat.

00:53:03.599 --> 00:53:07.199
So I go and look at it, and it's a fucking bedazzled New York Yankees hat.

00:53:07.199 --> 00:53:08.239
I was like, Rico.

00:53:08.239 --> 00:53:15.840
I was like, if we're gonna share an office, we just need to come to an understanding that my style and your style is very different.

00:53:15.840 --> 00:53:19.760
And for a year and a half, we have operated under this understanding.

00:53:20.079 --> 00:53:21.920
I have absolutely no style at all.

00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:23.119
Don't either.

00:53:23.119 --> 00:53:30.480
Like, this is the most stylish you get is your little your your hat with your well, you've moved on from the flannels on your podcast.

00:53:30.719 --> 00:53:31.440
I haven't moved on.

00:53:31.440 --> 00:53:37.440
I just wearing something different than I wore the other day because it's a little chilly and I needed a sweater.

00:53:37.599 --> 00:53:39.519
I'm giving you shit, but I have no style either.

00:53:39.519 --> 00:53:40.159
Like none.

00:53:40.400 --> 00:53:44.480
I used to, like then I just go fat and lazy and like I just don't give a shit.

00:53:44.480 --> 00:53:47.920
That's that's how I got like y'all remember used to wear button-up shirts all the time.

00:53:47.920 --> 00:53:49.280
Yeah, usually, yeah.

00:53:49.440 --> 00:53:52.480
But I mean, I guess like for me, my style is all right.

00:53:52.480 --> 00:53:55.679
Caitlin goes, we're going out for dinner at a nice restaurant.

00:53:55.679 --> 00:54:01.519
I put on black pants with a black shirt, I'm all black, and then I'll put on my red bands.

00:54:01.519 --> 00:54:07.119
Like, and she's like, Well, you just spent $150 on those black boots, or no, it was more than that.

00:54:07.119 --> 00:54:11.360
You spent all this money on those black boots, why aren't you wearing because I'm wearing my red vans.

00:54:11.679 --> 00:54:21.119
Nikki would would say the same thing, but like we've been married for nearly 25 years, and you would think that, oh, well, he's married, so he doesn't really give a shit.

00:54:21.119 --> 00:54:31.360
But it's like we if we go out to eat or we go out to a show or something like that, we both like try to look nice, but it but we're both don't know a style.

00:54:31.519 --> 00:54:34.320
Like next week, you and I have to go to a funeral.

00:54:34.320 --> 00:54:36.719
Yeah, what are you gonna wear to that funeral?

00:54:36.960 --> 00:54:41.280
Probably exactly are we already anticipating Gene's funeral?

00:54:41.519 --> 00:54:45.360
No, our uncle Oh, by the way, our uncle Mart, our mom, our mom's brother died.

00:54:45.360 --> 00:54:46.000
R.I.P.

00:54:46.000 --> 00:54:46.320
Martin.

00:54:46.320 --> 00:54:46.960
R.I.P.

00:54:46.960 --> 00:54:47.280
Mart.

00:54:47.599 --> 00:54:49.679
I thought y'all were anticipating Gene already.

00:54:49.679 --> 00:54:53.679
Like, it's funny because the story behind that is like actually that's this week.

00:54:53.760 --> 00:54:54.400
Oh shit.

00:54:54.400 --> 00:55:02.800
When when when when our dad died, like I was trying to reach out to Mart because him and my dad were pretty good friends, even after my parents got divorced.

00:55:02.960 --> 00:55:04.719
I think I vaguely remember meeting him a couple times.

00:55:04.880 --> 00:55:06.639
And he uh you have it.

00:55:06.639 --> 00:55:07.440
No, nope.

00:55:07.440 --> 00:55:12.480
So I try to reach out to him to let him know that that that our dad died, and and I couldn't get a hold of him.

00:55:12.480 --> 00:55:14.880
And I knew it was his number because he texted me from it.

00:55:14.880 --> 00:55:17.360
And his voicemail is him, yeah.

00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:20.159
And so he didn't he never responded to it or anything.

00:55:20.159 --> 00:55:22.400
So fast forward, this was like three weeks ago.

00:55:22.400 --> 00:55:28.880
I'm sitting in my office and I get a phone call from Mount Juliet, and it says, you know, on the phone, it says, Maybe Mary Dowden.

00:55:28.880 --> 00:55:30.239
I was like, what the fuck?

00:55:30.239 --> 00:55:31.440
Mary Dowden was making it.

00:55:31.440 --> 00:55:33.199
I haven't talked to them in 10 years.

00:55:33.199 --> 00:55:36.159
Hadn't talked to him in a long time, and I was like, What the fuck?

00:55:36.159 --> 00:55:40.480
Now on my phone, I have my work line and my personal line on there.

00:55:40.480 --> 00:55:44.239
And I later like, like, so I called her back.

00:55:44.239 --> 00:55:45.119
She left a message.

00:55:45.119 --> 00:55:47.039
I called her back, and I knew what was coming.

00:55:47.039 --> 00:55:49.440
I knew she's gonna tell me that Mart had died.

00:55:49.440 --> 00:55:53.119
Because if it was Mart calling me, he probably would have told me that Mary died.

00:55:53.119 --> 00:56:00.559
So anyway, so I call her back, and you know, I had to put on the like, oh, I'm you know, oh, that's we're so fucked up.

00:56:00.559 --> 00:56:09.679
Look, I don't, I have I don't I don't have no feelings about it, but it's just not my outside feelings.

00:56:09.679 --> 00:56:13.679
I really think that I'm numb to it because like everybody's died.

00:56:13.679 --> 00:56:17.280
Well, it's like it all happened, like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

00:56:17.280 --> 00:56:21.599
It's like in retrospect, because the biggest person that you lose in your life is your parents.

00:56:21.599 --> 00:56:29.599
And so, like, well, I don't, and maybe your husband or wife or whoever, whoever it may be a kid, yeah, a kid.

00:56:29.599 --> 00:56:30.960
I don't wish that upon anyone.

00:56:30.960 --> 00:56:32.079
Please don't let my kids die.

00:56:32.079 --> 00:56:32.719
Yes, exactly.

00:56:32.719 --> 00:56:38.159
That's why I wasn't gonna bring it up because I God forbid anything happened to any of our spouses or kids or anything like that.

00:56:38.400 --> 00:56:40.239
Well, you are we are the dead parents club, yeah.

00:56:40.239 --> 00:56:41.599
Yeah, we're we're orphaned.

00:56:41.599 --> 00:56:43.360
We're all orphaned.

00:56:43.360 --> 00:56:44.079
We're orphans.

00:56:44.079 --> 00:56:48.320
So it so look, I was adopted, so I was an orphan long before y'all were.

00:56:48.320 --> 00:56:50.400
But doesn't your biological dad live with you?

00:56:50.400 --> 00:56:52.559
He does, but he never he didn't raise me or something.

00:56:52.559 --> 00:56:52.800
I know.

00:56:52.800 --> 00:56:53.599
I'm just giving you a hard time.

00:56:54.000 --> 00:56:56.559
So our friend, our friend Clay died in 2001.

00:56:56.559 --> 00:56:57.679
I think that fucked us up.

00:56:57.679 --> 00:57:00.159
And no, well, I was gonna say me up for sure.

00:57:00.320 --> 00:57:04.079
I did not process that until we process 20 years later.

00:57:04.079 --> 00:57:09.360
We process clay, all of us in this room process clay dying with humor.

00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:22.480
Yes, with our friends and humor and fucked up comments, and it bled over into mom dying 10 years ago, your mom dying, yeah, which god forbid I make a your mom joke to him.

00:57:22.559 --> 00:57:26.000
I'm still I still don't like making your mom jokes to Eric.

00:57:26.000 --> 00:57:29.840
So the so my point of the conversation is Mary called.

00:57:29.840 --> 00:57:32.400
I pretended to have feelings.

00:57:32.400 --> 00:57:33.840
I'm good at pretending.

00:57:33.840 --> 00:57:35.280
I hope Mary doesn't listen to us.

00:57:35.280 --> 00:57:38.000
And I do, and I do have feelings, but what are the odds of that?

00:57:38.159 --> 00:57:39.280
We're gonna get there on Thursday night.

00:57:39.280 --> 00:57:40.639
She'll be like, I hear you pretend to be able to do that.

00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:50.159
Sorry, I was gonna say it's easier than talking with Daniel because Daniel's really hard to podcast, but he's never gonna listen to me.

00:57:50.159 --> 00:57:51.440
Do you want to know why?

00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:52.239
Yes.

00:57:52.239 --> 00:57:53.840
No, anyway.

00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:57.280
So anyway, I did that.

00:57:57.280 --> 00:58:00.079
So I started thinking about how did she get a hold of me?

00:58:00.079 --> 00:58:04.800
Because I knew that she didn't have my number when I saw on my phone that she called my work number.

00:58:04.800 --> 00:58:08.400
So she called the office, and our Heli uh forwarded it to you.

00:58:08.400 --> 00:58:09.440
Likely.

00:58:09.440 --> 00:58:14.079
No, I think that maybe she got I maybe she found a business card with my number on it.

00:58:14.079 --> 00:58:19.920
If she calls the office and it forwards to I know it comes up as the person calling.

00:58:19.920 --> 00:58:21.920
Yeah, and it could be it could be what it was.

00:58:22.079 --> 00:58:22.480
You know what?

00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:23.920
I'll ask her on Thursday night.

00:58:24.159 --> 00:58:28.639
So but but immediately I was trying to stop over there.

00:58:28.960 --> 00:58:29.840
God damn.

00:58:30.639 --> 00:58:42.400
So the pro so what I'm worried about, so what I was worried about is like, what if Mary, all that is good, Mary, who's nice and kind and all these things, I know.

00:58:42.400 --> 00:58:45.760
I'm just sitting, I'm I'm gonna drink my drink, prim and proper, anyway.

00:58:45.760 --> 00:58:48.400
Prem and proper Mary.

00:58:48.400 --> 00:58:57.360
Call like what if she found out our contact information through this podcast and she was like, Oh, oh, there's Tim and Justin.

00:58:57.360 --> 00:59:04.559
Like the very like you were on episode number four or something, and she's like, play, and I'm like, I hope she didn't listen to that.

00:59:05.360 --> 00:59:10.480
Well, if she googled Tim Hollis, you're gonna come up through the podcast on Google now.

00:59:10.639 --> 00:59:11.360
I have to know.

00:59:11.519 --> 00:59:20.559
Do it because I can tell you now if you Google my name, the first four pages of Google are me now, because I built a presence through the podcast through the nighthouse and everything I do.

00:59:20.639 --> 00:59:27.039
So but I thought that I thought hold on, I'd like to say for the record that when I put in Tim, I put in tick, but it doesn't matter.

00:59:27.039 --> 00:59:32.880
When I put in Tim Hollis, it comes up as Tim Hollis, Tim Hollis, Mississippi.

00:59:33.199 --> 00:59:35.920
No, the other Tim Hollis is Alabama.

00:59:36.559 --> 00:59:40.559
Well, I'm I'm not I Google Tim Hollis, I get that guy.

00:59:40.559 --> 00:59:42.400
That is, that's that's our that's the other guy.

00:59:42.480 --> 00:59:44.400
I know that's what's the other Tim Hollis.

00:59:46.159 --> 00:59:49.840
No, but anyway, so we got Oh my god, he has so many things about him.

00:59:49.920 --> 00:59:51.119
He's so much more important than that.

00:59:51.119 --> 00:59:52.239
He is, he's very popular.

00:59:52.239 --> 00:59:55.840
I thought about having him on the podcast, but he probably wouldn't really like it.

00:59:55.840 --> 01:00:02.559
But anyway, so we got to go to that funeral on on Thursday and Deal with all that, which I don't really feel like doing.

01:00:02.559 --> 01:00:05.760
And then obviously we got this gene thing that's imminent.

01:00:05.760 --> 01:00:08.800
So we'll have to do let me rephrase that.

01:00:08.800 --> 01:00:12.320
I will have to deal with that because you're not going to do anything.

01:00:12.559 --> 01:00:15.039
You never asked me to do anything.

01:00:15.039 --> 01:00:17.440
That may or may not be true.

01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:21.039
Like, what have you ever asked me to do that I have not done?

01:00:21.039 --> 01:00:22.159
No, you're right.

01:00:22.159 --> 01:00:22.719
That's true.

01:00:22.719 --> 01:00:23.679
That's that's not true.

01:00:23.679 --> 01:00:25.199
I'm gonna treat you like Caitlin.

01:00:25.199 --> 01:00:27.679
I can't read your fucking mind there, big guy.

01:00:28.639 --> 01:00:29.360
Good lord.

01:00:29.360 --> 01:00:31.519
If my if Nikki talked to me like that.

01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:33.679
Oh no, I don't talk to Caitlin like that.

01:00:33.679 --> 01:00:36.559
Caitlin's gonna be smacking his ass.

01:00:36.960 --> 01:00:38.960
I can't talk to you like that, big guy.

01:00:39.440 --> 01:00:41.440
All right, but anyway, what else we got?

01:00:41.440 --> 01:00:43.440
So we got Gene covered.

01:00:43.840 --> 01:00:47.840
Do you want to hear the time I made the your mom joke that was super inappropriate to Eric?

01:00:48.480 --> 01:00:52.320
Yes, because you started talking about that on one podcast and I didn't know what you were talking about.

01:00:52.320 --> 01:00:53.280
But now that Eric has been.

01:00:55.840 --> 01:00:57.679
So this was all in my head.

01:00:57.679 --> 01:00:59.199
He never gave a shit.

01:00:59.280 --> 01:00:59.440
No.

01:00:59.760 --> 01:01:07.679
But when his mom died, he said, Hey, can you do this super important thing and be a pallbearer at my mom's funeral?

01:01:07.679 --> 01:01:08.400
Absolutely.

01:01:08.400 --> 01:01:10.880
There's nothing I wouldn't do for Eric.

01:01:10.880 --> 01:01:14.559
So I will do, I will be the pod, uh, not the podcaster.

01:01:14.559 --> 01:01:16.960
I will be the pall bearer.

01:01:17.280 --> 01:01:18.880
You're being the podbearer right now.

01:01:18.880 --> 01:01:20.159
The podbearer.

01:01:20.800 --> 01:01:28.239
So at his mom's funeral, I accidentally made a your mom joke to Eric.

01:01:28.239 --> 01:01:31.039
She died at his mother's funeral.

01:01:31.039 --> 01:01:32.559
At his mother's funeral.

01:01:32.559 --> 01:01:35.840
His mom died like eight years before our mom.

01:01:35.840 --> 01:01:42.480
So when our so I did not and and it was in my head for years, and I never said anything about it.

01:01:42.480 --> 01:01:44.320
He never said anything about it either.

01:01:44.320 --> 01:01:51.599
So I don't want y'all to think that Eric was like holding on to the fuck you for making a your mom joke at my mom's funeral.

01:01:51.920 --> 01:01:56.480
Anytime Joseph came around, he's like, fucking Joseph, and that your mom joke, I'm offended.

01:01:56.800 --> 01:02:00.320
But I never and and I let them fly as you do, as he does.

01:02:00.320 --> 01:02:02.320
We make your mom jokes fly.

01:02:02.320 --> 01:02:11.679
Um, but when mom died after the funeral, I was like, hey, Eric, since since my mom isn't also dead.

01:02:11.679 --> 01:02:12.880
Eight years later.

01:02:12.880 --> 01:02:16.239
Can I make can I make your mom jokes to you now?

01:02:16.239 --> 01:02:18.800
Because I feel bad about that one time.

01:02:18.800 --> 01:02:21.280
And he was like, I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.

01:02:21.280 --> 01:02:27.440
But I held on to that shit and I went out of my way to not make your mom jokes to Eric.

01:02:27.440 --> 01:02:29.760
And then I found out that the whole time I could have done it.

01:02:30.000 --> 01:02:35.920
That's that's saying a lot because Joseph doesn't go out of his way to not make your mom jokes for anybody.

01:02:35.920 --> 01:02:37.760
I mean, I did it to people I don't know.

01:02:37.760 --> 01:02:39.840
It's like nobody's mom is off limits with Joseph.

01:02:40.079 --> 01:02:42.000
Like Joey at work, I know that his mom is dead.

01:02:42.000 --> 01:02:42.960
I did not hold back.

01:02:42.960 --> 01:02:45.360
And Selmo, I know I don't hold back.

01:02:45.360 --> 01:02:46.559
I held back for Eric.

01:02:46.559 --> 01:02:47.119
What about me?

01:02:47.119 --> 01:02:49.039
What if I tell you that I'm offended by it now?

01:02:49.199 --> 01:02:52.079
I will scroll through our text messages and tell you to go fuck yourself.

01:02:52.239 --> 01:02:53.679
And show you how you're not offended.

01:02:54.239 --> 01:02:58.480
I think that you actually said your mom joke to me just hours ago.

01:02:58.800 --> 01:02:59.119
I did.

01:02:59.119 --> 01:03:02.000
Approximately 4 06 p.m.

01:03:03.280 --> 01:03:06.480
What did I text y'all about when your dad came back from the dud?

01:03:06.639 --> 01:03:07.280
Hang on a second.

01:03:07.280 --> 01:03:08.159
I said no.

01:03:08.159 --> 01:03:11.599
I said, I said, I'm loading up Gene's bed at the Pearl.

01:03:11.599 --> 01:03:12.719
Do you need help?

01:03:12.719 --> 01:03:16.159
And does he have a wire hanger for your fucking car?

01:03:16.159 --> 01:03:17.920
And I said, No, I'll be home in a minute.

01:03:17.920 --> 01:03:20.559
And then Joseph says, Your mom won't be home.

01:03:21.199 --> 01:03:23.679
FYI, your mom will not be home in a minute.

01:03:23.679 --> 01:03:25.119
She won't be.

01:03:25.280 --> 01:03:25.920
And she wasn't.

01:03:25.920 --> 01:03:29.440
What did I text you when your dad came back from the dead on Facebook?

01:03:29.440 --> 01:03:30.880
I don't remember what you said.

01:03:30.880 --> 01:03:35.679
I said something about, is it appropriate to make your mom jokes about your dad now?

01:03:35.679 --> 01:03:41.199
Because your dad has a sex change on Facebook.

01:03:41.360 --> 01:03:44.880
Yeah, she hasn't shown up on my Facebook in a while.

01:03:44.960 --> 01:03:45.840
I'm starting to get concerned.

01:03:45.840 --> 01:03:47.119
I need I need to look in on it.

01:03:47.119 --> 01:03:49.760
I think Bobby probably turned her ass in, is what happened.

01:03:50.159 --> 01:03:51.760
Because he didn't understand.

01:03:51.760 --> 01:03:52.320
Yeah.

01:03:52.480 --> 01:03:54.079
He was what did he know?

01:03:54.079 --> 01:03:55.440
He did the right thing.

01:03:55.599 --> 01:03:57.920
I know, but he didn't understand that it wasn't.

01:03:58.320 --> 01:03:58.639
Yeah.

01:03:58.639 --> 01:04:00.800
It wasn't Freeman coming back from the death.

01:04:01.519 --> 01:04:02.960
He was like, Mama.

01:04:04.719 --> 01:04:05.039
God.

01:04:05.039 --> 01:04:08.320
There are so many things I'm going to hell for.

01:04:08.320 --> 01:04:11.119
Well, you're going to hell for a lot of different things.

01:04:11.119 --> 01:04:13.360
And I mean, listen, we talked.

01:04:13.360 --> 01:04:15.599
Oh, are you gonna are you gonna break it down?

01:04:15.599 --> 01:04:17.199
No, I was just gonna break it down.

01:04:17.679 --> 01:04:18.880
Top 10 list is where we're going.

01:04:19.840 --> 01:04:22.800
Top 10 list of fucked up things Joseph has said or done.

01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:30.079
I wanna I want to talk about your mom jokes here for a second because we briefly touched on it in the last podcast that will be available soon.

01:04:30.079 --> 01:04:39.199
But your mom jokes, you remember when you were in school and it's like only the only the trashy rednecks said your mom.

01:04:39.199 --> 01:04:42.159
I never made your mom jokes until his mom died.

01:04:42.159 --> 01:04:45.039
And it was like the worst offense ever.

01:04:45.039 --> 01:04:51.039
Like if you said your mom to somebody, yeah, it wasn't, it was just like somebody said something, you're like, Oh yeah?

01:04:51.039 --> 01:04:51.679
Well, your mom.

01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:53.599
It was like that's fucking fighting words.

01:04:53.599 --> 01:04:55.760
But the your mom was so fat, where's the worst ones?

01:04:55.760 --> 01:04:57.360
Your mom is so fat and all that.

01:04:57.360 --> 01:05:01.280
But now it's like it's just everyday speak in my household.

01:05:01.280 --> 01:05:05.039
Even Nikki saying your mom jokes to my kids, which means her.

01:05:05.440 --> 01:05:10.000
Oliver made a your mom joke to me on Friday when I was picking it up from his mom's.

01:05:10.000 --> 01:05:12.400
It was a very inappropriate your mom joke.

01:05:12.400 --> 01:05:13.519
I was very proud of him.

01:05:13.519 --> 01:05:16.079
But you had to put on that face like no, I didn't.

01:05:16.079 --> 01:05:18.480
He made a your mom joke.

01:05:18.480 --> 01:05:21.360
It was about my mom being dead, and he is my 11-year-old son.

01:05:21.360 --> 01:05:22.800
He said that to you, 11.

01:05:22.800 --> 01:05:26.000
He's to me, and his mom looked at me.

01:05:26.000 --> 01:05:27.360
Annette, Annette, R.

01:05:27.440 --> 01:05:27.760
Ip.

01:05:27.760 --> 01:05:28.159
R I P.

01:05:28.480 --> 01:05:31.760
Virginia looked at me and she said, This is your fault.

01:05:31.760 --> 01:05:33.760
And I had no argument.

01:05:34.800 --> 01:05:35.920
It is absolutely your fault.

01:05:36.079 --> 01:05:37.280
No, I think it might be your fault.

01:05:37.519 --> 01:05:38.559
But listen, Uncle Jim.

01:05:38.559 --> 01:05:40.159
But but listen, oh yeah.

01:05:40.159 --> 01:05:42.480
We never told that story on the phone.

01:05:42.480 --> 01:05:48.800
So Sam is Joseph's son, and um when he was younger, how old do you think he was at this point?

01:05:49.039 --> 01:05:52.079
Eight or nine, maybe even younger than that, which makes it even worse.

01:05:52.480 --> 01:05:57.519
He was eight or nine, and so they come over for the holidays or whatever.

01:05:57.519 --> 01:06:00.320
And he was he like I was really nice to him.

01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:07.760
I'm always nice to the kids, but one time he did something bad or said something wrong or something, and I kind of got stern with him.

01:06:07.760 --> 01:06:08.079
Yeah.

01:06:08.079 --> 01:06:11.840
Because look, he wants you to refill his beer too, Jessie.

01:06:11.840 --> 01:06:13.920
Listen, please uh small.

01:06:14.400 --> 01:06:15.119
Right or left?

01:06:15.360 --> 01:06:15.920
Uh right.

01:06:15.920 --> 01:06:18.800
So over over at my house, the idea.

01:06:18.800 --> 01:06:22.800
Over at my house, if you got kids and they're acting up, I'm gonna get in their ass about it.

01:06:22.800 --> 01:06:23.119
Right.

01:06:23.119 --> 01:06:24.719
You know, that's it takes a village.

01:06:24.719 --> 01:06:25.679
That's just standard.

01:06:25.679 --> 01:06:30.639
So he did something wrong, and so I got stern with him.

01:06:30.639 --> 01:06:36.960
And so somehow that morphed into there's Uncle Tim and there's uh Uncle Jim.

01:06:36.960 --> 01:06:42.239
And so I was committed to this story, and so they were leaving one night one holiday.

01:06:42.239 --> 01:06:42.800
Thank you.

01:06:42.800 --> 01:06:43.519
Appreciate it.

01:06:43.519 --> 01:06:47.039
And I went out like it was it was Christmas.

01:06:47.039 --> 01:06:48.079
It was Christmas.

01:06:48.079 --> 01:06:52.239
So I went out there as Uncle Uncle Jim or Uncle Tim?

01:06:52.239 --> 01:06:55.199
Uncle Jim is the cunt, so I got it in there.

01:06:55.199 --> 01:06:57.599
I was gonna say he's always gonna get it in there.

01:06:57.920 --> 01:07:00.480
So Uncle Tim was YouTube will get you for that one.

01:07:00.719 --> 01:07:03.119
Uncle Tim Uncle Tim really, no, they won't get me.

01:07:03.119 --> 01:07:05.920
I've I've been on many podcasts and I've said cunt a lot.

01:07:05.920 --> 01:07:07.920
Uncle Tim.

01:07:07.920 --> 01:07:09.280
Uncle Tim was a nice one.

01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:10.800
Uncle Jim was the asshole.

01:07:10.800 --> 01:07:20.400
So I went I went into my bedroom real quick and put on like a scarf and a hat and some like sunglasses, and I went and hid in the I gave him my keys and he went looking like a pedophile.

01:07:20.400 --> 01:07:28.000
I went and got in the car, and then like Sam goes to get in the car and he's like, Oh no, Uncle Jim's in here and he's an asshole.

01:07:28.000 --> 01:07:30.800
So we'd get that going for years.

01:07:30.800 --> 01:07:32.559
Do you think that he really believed it?

01:07:32.559 --> 01:07:36.400
I think for a minute, I think when we first started it.

01:07:36.400 --> 01:07:37.920
I was committed to it, man.

01:07:37.920 --> 01:07:43.360
It cracked me up the fact that like I could be two people, you know, because you'd always see it like when you were growing up on TV.

01:07:43.440 --> 01:07:48.320
Like, I also think at that age, he probably didn't really know your fucking name because you weren't around a whole lot.

01:07:48.320 --> 01:07:49.440
Yeah, that's probably true.

01:07:49.519 --> 01:07:53.119
It's like when Nathan died, I was like, hey, Oliver, your Uncle Nathan.

01:07:53.119 --> 01:07:54.000
Who's the fuck Nathan?

01:07:54.639 --> 01:07:54.800
Right.

01:07:54.800 --> 01:07:56.960
Uncle Tim and Uncle Dude.

01:07:56.960 --> 01:07:59.360
Oh, that motherfucker, not Nathan.

01:07:59.360 --> 01:08:06.639
RIP Nathan, but the other motherfucker sold the guitars and shit from y'all.

01:08:06.639 --> 01:08:07.360
Sure.

01:08:07.360 --> 01:08:12.079
He the one that Nathan used, supposedly praise the guitar.

01:08:12.079 --> 01:08:18.239
That motherfucker is still squatting in the fucking attic of the shell station with all the guitars and amps.

01:08:18.239 --> 01:08:18.880
Oh, is it?

01:08:18.880 --> 01:08:20.960
I need to get with him and tell him to give me that shit back.

01:08:21.039 --> 01:08:21.199
Yeah.

01:08:21.439 --> 01:08:24.079
You know what's amazing is that you have contact with him.

01:08:24.239 --> 01:08:27.199
Oh, he's in the shell all the time, but uh fucking Tony does.

01:08:27.199 --> 01:08:30.479
The shell that he is referring to, audience, is the shady shell.

01:08:31.600 --> 01:08:35.920
Well, Tony told me that he's gonna go to the fucking court to get him out.

01:08:35.920 --> 01:08:37.359
Get all the shit out of there.

01:08:37.359 --> 01:08:38.079
Yeah, he's squad.

01:08:38.560 --> 01:08:42.159
You have this podcast that's called the Fairview Social Podcast.

01:08:42.159 --> 01:08:44.239
All you need is Eric.

01:08:44.239 --> 01:08:48.319
If you want to talk about Fairview, he knows all the bullshit in Fairview.

01:08:48.560 --> 01:08:50.479
Yeah, I know, and I'm appreciative of that.

01:08:50.479 --> 01:08:56.720
But the a lot of the listeners in on the Fairview Social Podcast are from Indonesia.

01:08:56.960 --> 01:09:00.000
Well, I had one the other day from uh Brazil.

01:09:00.000 --> 01:09:05.920
Well, when you throw around the C word all the time, YouTube limits who sees your podcast.

01:09:05.920 --> 01:09:06.399
Nah.

01:09:06.560 --> 01:09:07.680
Well, quit saying it then.

01:09:07.680 --> 01:09:08.640
I'm not going to.

01:09:08.640 --> 01:09:09.439
Actually, you know what?

01:09:09.439 --> 01:09:11.119
I'll just go in and edit it out every time.

01:09:11.439 --> 01:09:12.239
Don't do that.

01:09:12.479 --> 01:09:13.760
Well, quit saying it all the time.

01:09:13.760 --> 01:09:14.720
Well, you can bleach it.

01:09:14.880 --> 01:09:16.560
I am I am authentic.

01:09:17.359 --> 01:09:19.520
So it's authentic for you to say the C word all the time.

01:09:20.000 --> 01:09:25.600
Fuck too many times, YouTube will limit who sees your no, it only gives a shit about like the first like 30 seconds or something like that.

01:09:25.600 --> 01:09:31.600
Yeah, but you were trying to fuck me the first time and and and fucking monetized.

01:09:31.600 --> 01:09:33.840
Before I don't have enough listeners, nobody gets.

01:09:34.319 --> 01:09:38.000
And you'll never get monetized or have enough listeners if you don't stop saying cunt and fuck.

01:09:38.000 --> 01:09:39.119
So you have a choice.

01:09:39.279 --> 01:09:43.199
So you can either have me on your podcast or not.

01:09:43.199 --> 01:09:45.760
Or you can quit saying that.

01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:48.479
I am probably not going to do that.

01:09:48.800 --> 01:09:52.319
Tim, I think you need to have an explicit warning at the beginning of this episode.

01:09:52.479 --> 01:09:54.000
He tried, he actually tried that.

01:09:54.000 --> 01:10:05.439
And it, you know, it really sucks when you do like the um the age limit on your podcast, because it means that I can't turn my phone off and listen to the podcast.

01:10:05.760 --> 01:10:12.319
It won't let me do every time you upload a YouTube video, it asks if it's appropriate for kids, and I always put no.

01:10:12.319 --> 01:10:14.399
Yeah, with mine, I always put no as well.

01:10:15.119 --> 01:10:17.600
What is not appropriate for kids on your podcast?

01:10:17.760 --> 01:10:19.600
Because I talk just like this on my fucking podcast.

01:10:19.760 --> 01:10:21.039
If I want to say fuck, I say fuck.

01:10:21.039 --> 01:10:21.680
It's my show.

01:10:21.680 --> 01:10:27.039
I think it's because I think it's because like people post videos specifically for little kids.

01:10:27.039 --> 01:10:28.640
So well, you have the kids YouTube.

01:10:29.119 --> 01:10:35.760
Well, this YouTube channel on the episodes that I am on are not appropriate for children.

01:10:35.920 --> 01:10:42.159
I'm just trying to say you might have 14 fucking viewers on YouTube because a cunti McCunk face over here.

01:10:44.239 --> 01:10:54.960
You know, it's you know what really pisses me off is when you do a podcast with like just Mike Riley or just one other person and and and they don't.

01:10:54.960 --> 01:10:57.439
I know Mike Riley, I know that he cusses.

01:10:57.439 --> 01:11:05.039
He doesn't reciprocate, he does not cuss on your podcast, and you take the lead of your guests, which is the right thing to do.

01:11:05.039 --> 01:11:06.239
You're not doing anything wrong.

01:11:06.239 --> 01:11:07.760
I'm just an asshole.

01:11:07.760 --> 01:11:12.880
And you don't cuss, and then there's no cussing, and then I feel like it's not authentic because I know you.

01:11:13.119 --> 01:11:13.760
Yeah, I get it.

01:11:13.760 --> 01:11:15.039
Listen, and I know Mike.

01:11:15.039 --> 01:11:20.880
It was funny because I did uh episode with Nikki when she released her book, uh Light Matters, Dark Matters.

01:11:20.880 --> 01:11:23.199
Check it out on the Zon if you guys want to.

01:11:23.199 --> 01:11:24.239
And the book's amazing.

01:11:24.239 --> 01:11:24.800
I have to buy it.

01:11:25.199 --> 01:11:27.279
You're getting pretty good at this whole shout-out thing.

01:11:27.439 --> 01:11:30.079
So I I will tell you, I she showed me the copy of it.

01:11:30.079 --> 01:11:31.279
I have to buy one, it's amazing.

01:11:32.000 --> 01:11:37.439
So I did a podcast with her so that she could get clips to post for her social media to promote the book.

01:11:37.439 --> 01:11:37.760
Yeah.

01:11:37.760 --> 01:11:44.720
So I told her before we started, I said, listen, I'm not gonna what are you fucking laughing at?

01:11:45.039 --> 01:11:51.039
Because he went, he went whoop, some weird noise with the fucking doucheflute.

01:11:54.640 --> 01:11:56.720
So he made a doucheflute noise.

01:11:56.720 --> 01:12:02.560
So I told her, I said, because this is this, I said that because this podcast is for you, I'm not gonna cuss in it.

01:12:02.560 --> 01:12:04.319
And then I accidentally cussed twice.

01:12:04.319 --> 01:12:07.840
So I went in there and I pushed the edit button and I censored it out.

01:12:07.840 --> 01:12:10.239
I'm about to have to fucking start censoring his dumb ass.

01:12:10.399 --> 01:12:12.479
You're gonna have a 10-second delay like they do on radio.

01:12:12.479 --> 01:12:13.600
I'm not gonna lie to you.

01:12:14.319 --> 01:12:15.680
I'm gonna be completely honest with you.

01:12:15.680 --> 01:12:16.239
Okay.

01:12:16.239 --> 01:12:18.800
If you start censoring me, I'm never coming on again.

01:12:18.800 --> 01:12:20.960
And I know that nobody gives a shit.

01:12:20.960 --> 01:12:21.920
Authenticity.

01:12:21.920 --> 01:12:25.920
Well, maybe one or two of the 14 listeners are gonna drop off off.

01:12:25.920 --> 01:12:26.720
I'm not gonna lie.

01:12:26.720 --> 01:12:32.960
The only thing I leave my house for is to come onto your podcast, and that's gonna take my entire social life.

01:12:33.039 --> 01:12:35.439
But listen, I'm not gonna edit it, I don't give a shit.

01:12:35.439 --> 01:12:36.399
But you are right.

01:12:36.399 --> 01:12:41.680
If somebody like I will follow, because uh listen, Buffalini didn't cuss and you didn't.

01:12:41.680 --> 01:12:45.920
But listen, here's really turned on the microphone and Buffalini's like, fuck this, fuck that.

01:12:45.920 --> 01:12:46.960
He was that's true.

01:12:46.960 --> 01:12:52.560
But listen, the where I stand on it is this if I invite like the hypocrite.

01:12:52.560 --> 01:12:58.479
The first few the first few episodes, like when Riley was on here, he didn't cuss or anything.

01:12:58.800 --> 01:13:00.560
Because he cares what his kids think about him.

01:13:00.640 --> 01:13:16.720
I don't in my mind, it's like, hey, he wants he wants to show his kids, or he won people want to show other people this podcast, and I don't want to be the reason that they're just like, well, I went on here, but Tim said all this shit too much, and I don't want my kids here.

01:13:16.720 --> 01:13:17.520
I get it.

01:13:17.520 --> 01:13:21.680
This right here, apparently, you don't care if your kids think you're an asshole.

01:13:21.680 --> 01:13:25.920
My kids are all of age, so they can listen to this if they want to listen to it or not.

01:13:25.920 --> 01:13:27.680
Do you know what's really bad?

01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:30.560
This is still a team-down version of me.

01:13:30.560 --> 01:13:33.039
Well, you get it here.

01:13:33.039 --> 01:13:37.439
Have a couple more because look, audience, this is how much has been gone.

01:13:37.520 --> 01:13:39.279
And the he's not the only one drinking it.

01:13:39.279 --> 01:13:39.680
I don't know.

01:13:40.079 --> 01:13:41.760
We need a chicken and a Roger here soon.

01:13:41.920 --> 01:13:46.399
No, I was I would he's like sinking more in the chair by the minute.

01:13:46.640 --> 01:13:49.760
Yeah, for those that don't know, we gave Roger a drink.

01:13:49.760 --> 01:13:54.319
It does not have alcohol in it, and that's all I'm gonna say.

01:13:54.319 --> 01:13:55.680
No, that's right.

01:13:55.680 --> 01:13:59.760
Anyway, so so I censored myself because I'm a good guy.

01:14:01.840 --> 01:14:04.319
You're uh reclining.

01:14:04.319 --> 01:14:06.239
You may be a you may be a good guest.

01:14:06.239 --> 01:14:08.479
Shut the fuck up because you're about to say something mean.

01:14:08.479 --> 01:14:09.520
I asked.

01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:12.880
You may be a good podcast guest, but you're a bad parent.

01:14:12.880 --> 01:14:14.560
Oh, I'm an awful parent.

01:14:15.039 --> 01:14:18.479
I was like gonna, I was hoping you were gonna get offended by that because I don't mean that.

01:14:18.479 --> 01:14:19.600
I think you're a good parent.

01:14:19.600 --> 01:14:24.479
Listen, when my kids were younger, I was a terrible parent.

01:14:24.479 --> 01:14:31.439
And up until this week, I've been a good parent to teen teenage Sam and preteen Oliver.

01:14:31.439 --> 01:14:35.199
I Oliver hates me right now, and that's okay.

01:14:35.359 --> 01:14:36.399
No preteen shit.

01:14:36.560 --> 01:14:38.239
R I P like for Jesse.

01:14:38.239 --> 01:14:40.079
No, no, it's not preteen shit.

01:14:40.079 --> 01:14:41.840
No, what did you do?

01:14:41.840 --> 01:14:43.600
I gave Watson away.

01:14:43.920 --> 01:14:44.560
What?

01:14:45.279 --> 01:14:46.239
You dickhead.

01:14:46.239 --> 01:14:46.800
R.I.P.

01:14:46.800 --> 01:14:47.359
Watson.

01:14:47.359 --> 01:14:52.800
I gave Watson to Clint um from work, and Watson's probably living his best life.

01:14:53.199 --> 01:14:53.840
Watson has a good home.

01:14:53.840 --> 01:14:55.119
If he went to Clint, he's got a good home.

01:14:55.119 --> 01:14:55.279
Yeah.

01:14:55.279 --> 01:14:56.720
Anyway, Clint's loaded.

01:14:57.359 --> 01:15:07.199
I gave a dog away, and Oliver was I gave I gave Watson away last week and I did not say anything to Oliver that I had done it.

01:15:07.199 --> 01:15:12.079
And I and I asked Caitlin and I said, Hey, do you think I should tell Virginia?

01:15:12.079 --> 01:15:22.800
That's Oliver and Sam's mom, that I gave Watson away so he can get his emotions out there where it's an emotionally stable household where she could be coming.

01:15:23.039 --> 01:15:23.760
She could actually comfort it.

01:15:23.920 --> 01:15:24.560
She could be comforting.

01:15:24.560 --> 01:15:30.640
And she was and Caitlin's like, no, that's and Caitlin Caitlin does not cuss.

01:15:30.640 --> 01:15:34.720
All of 14 of your listeners who know me know that I cuss a lot.

01:15:34.720 --> 01:15:36.239
My wife does not cuss.

01:15:36.239 --> 01:15:36.560
Yeah.

01:15:36.800 --> 01:15:37.359
Oh shit.

01:15:37.359 --> 01:15:38.319
She does not cuss.

01:15:38.319 --> 01:15:39.039
I have heard her cuss.

01:15:39.920 --> 01:15:40.560
I've heard her cussing.

01:15:40.800 --> 01:15:41.680
Neither of you heard her.

01:15:41.680 --> 01:15:44.079
I promise you, neither of you have actually heard her cuss.

01:15:44.239 --> 01:15:44.880
No, I don't believe it.

01:15:44.880 --> 01:15:45.520
No, I don't believe it.

01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:46.239
Let's call her up.

01:15:46.239 --> 01:15:46.880
Call her up.

01:15:46.880 --> 01:15:47.600
Call her.

01:15:47.600 --> 01:15:48.000
All right.

01:15:48.000 --> 01:15:49.439
Let's call y'all continue.

01:15:49.439 --> 01:15:50.079
We'll call her.

01:15:50.319 --> 01:15:55.359
Anyway, and so I decided to not and break the news to him myself.

01:15:55.359 --> 01:15:58.560
So then we had Wednesday, Thursday, and all day Friday to decide.

01:15:58.560 --> 01:16:00.640
Do I tell him at his mom's house?

01:16:00.640 --> 01:16:05.199
Do I tell him at the beginning of the 45-minute drive?

01:16:05.199 --> 01:16:05.439
Yeah.

01:16:05.439 --> 01:16:07.439
Do I tell him right before we get home?

01:16:07.439 --> 01:16:10.079
Or do I not tell him at all to see if he even notices?

01:16:10.079 --> 01:16:12.640
Just for the record, that was my vote.

01:16:12.640 --> 01:16:14.000
Wrong one.

01:16:14.079 --> 01:16:14.960
I can figure it there.

01:16:15.279 --> 01:16:16.880
So I went with, I'm gonna tell.

01:16:16.880 --> 01:16:21.279
I'm gonna tell him at his mom's house.

01:16:21.279 --> 01:16:27.920
I said, hey, all and I told Virginia and I told Sam for oh Caitlin.

01:16:28.159 --> 01:16:28.319
What?

01:16:28.319 --> 01:16:29.359
Hold on, hold on a second.

01:16:29.359 --> 01:16:30.800
Hang on, Joseph.

01:16:30.800 --> 01:16:32.960
Caitlin, can I ask you something?

01:16:33.760 --> 01:16:34.000
What?

01:16:34.640 --> 01:16:36.319
Can you say fuck?

01:16:38.960 --> 01:16:40.399
Am I physically capable?

01:16:40.640 --> 01:16:41.760
Yeah, say it.

01:16:43.359 --> 01:16:46.159
I I can, but the gas guy's here.

01:16:46.239 --> 01:16:48.560
I don't think we're gonna be kind of rude.

01:16:48.560 --> 01:16:51.359
I need you to be rude to the gas guy.

01:16:51.680 --> 01:16:57.039
Joseph says that you don't cuss, but I know that that's a lie because I've heard you cuss plenty.

01:16:57.279 --> 01:16:59.039
But this is Eric, and I've heard you cuss as well.

01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:00.800
You don't have to be like this is Eric.

01:17:00.800 --> 01:17:02.159
She knows who the fuck you are.

01:17:03.520 --> 01:17:05.119
Drunk doesn't count.

01:17:05.600 --> 01:17:06.479
Drunk doesn't count.

01:17:06.479 --> 01:17:07.039
It does count.

01:17:07.039 --> 01:17:08.000
Drunk does count.

01:17:08.000 --> 01:17:09.520
Also, your parents cuss like so.

01:17:10.880 --> 01:17:11.600
Why do you need proof?

01:17:11.840 --> 01:17:13.760
Well, Joe said you didn't cuss.

01:17:14.640 --> 01:17:18.479
Well, I mean, not sober or consciously.

01:17:19.039 --> 01:17:21.680
So you won't, so you won't say fuck right now.

01:17:21.680 --> 01:17:23.199
The guy's gonna clear.

01:17:23.199 --> 01:17:26.479
You can say the C word since that's Joseph's favorite word.

01:17:28.560 --> 01:17:31.119
Apparently I'm gonna get Tim banned.

01:17:31.359 --> 01:17:33.680
You're gonna get banned just YouTube doesn't show your shit.

01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:36.640
So you don't have any any cuss word to offer us.

01:17:36.640 --> 01:17:37.600
Ass.

01:17:37.600 --> 01:17:39.600
Bitch.

01:17:39.600 --> 01:17:40.640
Nothing.

01:17:40.640 --> 01:17:43.600
Alright, well, I don't have time for this, Caitlin.

01:17:43.600 --> 01:17:44.399
Goodbye.

01:17:44.720 --> 01:17:45.199
Yeah, goodbye.

01:17:45.439 --> 01:17:46.319
You're the weakest link.

01:17:46.319 --> 01:17:46.640
Goodbye.

01:17:46.880 --> 01:17:47.920
All right, so anyway.

01:17:47.920 --> 01:17:54.479
So I told I told Oliver, I told Sam in Virginia first, and they're like, he's gonna be so mad.

01:17:54.479 --> 01:18:02.399
Because a couple months ago, I finally found a home that would be good for Watson, and he cried all weekend and it fell through.

01:18:02.399 --> 01:18:05.039
And I'm like, oh god, I'm glad it fell through.

01:18:05.039 --> 01:18:08.960
So I told him at his mom's house, and he was like, I don't give a shit.

01:18:08.960 --> 01:18:09.760
He didn't say that.

01:18:09.760 --> 01:18:15.279
He was like, until Saturday morning when his mom wasn't there to comfort him.

01:18:15.279 --> 01:18:15.520
Yeah.

01:18:15.520 --> 01:18:17.279
I'm like, I need you to get out of bed.

01:18:17.279 --> 01:18:19.199
You gave away my dog.

01:18:19.199 --> 01:18:22.000
He got that out.

01:18:22.319 --> 01:18:25.520
So Rico, Sam, and I are working on the race that you made.

01:18:25.760 --> 01:18:29.439
Sam is Sam Rico and I are working on Rico's car and my truck.

01:18:29.439 --> 01:18:32.479
And I was like, Sam, I need you to get Oliver.

01:18:32.479 --> 01:18:35.760
He goes in there, he's like, he yelled at me.

01:18:35.760 --> 01:18:37.680
He I was like, what's wrong with him?

01:18:37.680 --> 01:18:39.840
He's like, he's real mad about Watson.

01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:41.039
I was like, oh God.

01:18:41.039 --> 01:18:44.560
So I was like, I was like, I forced him out of the house and he's like, I'm like, can you do that?

01:18:44.560 --> 01:18:46.479
No, because you gave away my dog.

01:18:46.479 --> 01:18:51.119
I mean, and for the record, I I did in fact give away his dog.

01:18:51.119 --> 01:18:55.279
And the week that I've had since I gave away Watson has been the best week of my life.

01:18:55.279 --> 01:18:55.840
What?

01:18:55.840 --> 01:18:58.000
You don't like waking up with piss on your pillow?

01:18:58.000 --> 01:19:01.119
I don't like it's not even that because we kennel him.

01:19:01.119 --> 01:19:04.960
But what kind of life is it for a dog that I can't leave loose in the house?

01:19:04.960 --> 01:19:05.920
Listen, I get it.

01:19:05.920 --> 01:19:06.479
I get it.

01:19:06.479 --> 01:19:07.199
It's all good.

01:19:07.199 --> 01:19:11.760
And the perfect place that Watson would have gone would have been to Eric's.

01:19:11.920 --> 01:19:12.239
Yes.

01:19:12.239 --> 01:19:14.079
Yeah, but we've always had too many dogs.

01:19:14.239 --> 01:19:15.520
They've got like 7,000 dogs.

01:19:15.520 --> 01:19:16.079
I know.

01:19:16.079 --> 01:19:17.920
What's Watson gonna make a difference?

01:19:17.920 --> 01:19:19.119
Well, that'd be 7,000.

01:19:19.119 --> 01:19:21.920
He loves Roger more than anybody in the world.

01:19:21.920 --> 01:19:23.359
Look, we dropped one of them.

01:19:23.600 --> 01:19:25.039
That bitch went off and crawled in the woods.

01:19:25.359 --> 01:19:28.479
I know, and every time you lose a dog, I'm I get hopeful.

01:19:29.359 --> 01:19:31.279
I didn't know you're trying to get rid of him because we lost one.

01:19:31.279 --> 01:19:32.239
We would have gained him.

01:19:32.479 --> 01:19:35.119
I've been trying to get rid of Watson for seven fucking years.

01:19:35.119 --> 01:19:38.560
Maybe your husband isn't giving you all the information that you need.

01:19:38.560 --> 01:19:41.359
He's not because he doesn't want any more dogs.

01:19:41.359 --> 01:19:43.520
Well played, Roger.

01:19:43.520 --> 01:19:45.760
Well, I feel like Watson's in a good home.

01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:46.079
Yeah.

01:19:46.079 --> 01:19:46.960
And my life is much.

01:19:46.960 --> 01:19:52.560
I don't know if he's on a farm, but he has woods and a border collie that actually gives him a lot of.

01:19:52.560 --> 01:19:54.319
Is it a farm or is it like a big property?

01:19:54.319 --> 01:19:57.199
I don't know why you're looking at him like he knows they work together.

01:19:57.199 --> 01:19:59.119
Doesn't mean he knows everything about it.

01:19:59.119 --> 01:20:01.840
We borrowed two fucking 20 by 20 tenths from the guy.

01:20:01.920 --> 01:20:02.319
I don't know.

01:20:02.319 --> 01:20:03.039
That's Chad.

01:20:03.039 --> 01:20:04.399
That's oh, different guy.

01:20:04.399 --> 01:20:04.720
Okay.

01:20:04.960 --> 01:20:09.520
Oh, that's not very I was I was reassured for like a minute and now not feeling it.

01:20:09.760 --> 01:20:11.600
But Clint's his fucking underlying.

01:20:11.680 --> 01:20:16.720
Why wouldn't he know I don't I don't know if this is normal for like most most people.

01:20:16.720 --> 01:20:24.800
I don't know if this is normal for most people, but I feel like I'm a better parent as my kids are older than I was when I when they were young.

01:20:25.279 --> 01:20:28.239
Oh, I completely agree with you as a third party outside looking into both of y'all's asses.

01:20:28.239 --> 01:20:31.039
Y'all couldn't give a fuck less about your children.

01:20:31.039 --> 01:20:31.920
No, no, no.

01:20:32.000 --> 01:20:32.560
That's not true.

01:20:32.560 --> 01:20:33.760
For me, it's not true.

01:20:34.319 --> 01:20:43.439
No, I've all I've always cared about my children, but I feel like mothers, mothers are better at taking care of their children when they're children.

01:20:43.680 --> 01:20:50.479
But we make we joke, we hold on, we joke about how fucked up you and I are when it comes to like people in our family dying.

01:20:50.479 --> 01:20:55.760
I am not an emotional person and I don't do well showing emotion to my kids.

01:20:55.760 --> 01:20:56.079
Yes.

01:20:56.079 --> 01:20:59.760
And it has led me to not be the best father when they were younger.

01:20:59.760 --> 01:21:04.079
But like set, I'll be honest, I told this story on the podcast before.

01:21:04.079 --> 01:21:06.960
I got drunk one time with Sam, not with Sam.

01:21:06.960 --> 01:21:08.000
Sam was not drunk.

01:21:08.720 --> 01:21:09.520
Yeah, way too drunk.

01:21:09.760 --> 01:21:13.039
I was very, very drunk, and we got home and Virginia.

01:21:13.039 --> 01:21:14.640
No, ooh, that's bad.

01:21:14.640 --> 01:21:16.720
Caitlin and Oliver went to bed.

01:21:18.319 --> 01:21:18.720
Yep.

01:21:20.159 --> 01:21:26.560
Sam and I spent like an hour and a half in the garage talking about things, you know, from Caitlin to Oliver to Virginia.

01:21:26.560 --> 01:21:30.640
And I feel like that was like the most honest conversation I've ever had with Sam.

01:21:30.640 --> 01:21:33.600
And ever since that conversation, Sam and I have gotten along great.

01:21:33.600 --> 01:21:36.079
He does, he is very well aware of how impatient I am.

01:21:36.319 --> 01:21:40.159
No, I want you to know what I just said was not a slight on y'all that you're a horrible.

01:21:40.640 --> 01:21:41.840
You're you're a shitty dad.

01:21:41.840 --> 01:21:43.279
No, that you're a horrible parents.

01:21:44.079 --> 01:21:44.880
But not now.

01:21:44.880 --> 01:21:47.520
I think my kids may disagree.

01:21:47.520 --> 01:21:51.039
No, I think that y'all are I think you're good parents.

01:21:51.039 --> 01:21:52.239
Yeah, I always have.

01:21:52.239 --> 01:21:56.720
But I think now you're more available to your kids when they get older than you were when they were younger.

01:21:56.960 --> 01:22:00.159
Well, but because you can relate to you, like, look, but that's what I'm saying.

01:22:00.159 --> 01:22:04.880
In my mind, in my mind, I remember 15 like it was yesterday.

01:22:04.880 --> 01:22:16.720
It's like I don't remember what it's like to be a child and the needs, and the I don't know that if we were ever deprived of love and care like that, which it sounds like we were.

01:22:16.880 --> 01:22:18.399
I mean, that's that's kind of my point.

01:22:18.399 --> 01:22:26.720
I remember when you and I started having kids, dad would always tell us, I don't want to be a grandfather like Gene was, right?

01:22:26.720 --> 01:22:35.359
Like Gene was absent when we were and he was, and he's still, I mean, he's not RIP Freeman, R.I.P.

01:22:35.520 --> 01:22:35.920
Freeman.

01:22:35.920 --> 01:22:37.520
He's just in the fucking pearl.

01:22:37.680 --> 01:22:38.479
He's not that far.

01:22:38.479 --> 01:22:41.279
Yeah, you point like it's not that far, but I don't live in Fairview.

01:22:41.279 --> 01:22:47.760
Well, absent in the fact that like he's not calling you up and like being yeah, like I want to be a good grandfather to Freya.

01:22:48.079 --> 01:22:55.439
And so when I was growing up, and and then I had Sam, I was like, I am not gonna be a dad like Freeman was when I was a kid.

01:22:55.439 --> 01:22:58.640
Because dad and I, when I was a kid, we weren't close.

01:22:58.640 --> 01:23:00.319
Well, you looked at me before I was there.

01:23:00.319 --> 01:23:08.159
I'm not well we weren't hold on, I'm looking at you because I'm having a conversation with the two of you, and sometimes I don't want to look at his ugly ass.

01:23:08.159 --> 01:23:09.680
And so I look over here.

01:23:09.680 --> 01:23:11.359
Well, don't don't misunderstand.

01:23:12.319 --> 01:23:14.479
I didn't have a great relationship with Freeman H.

01:23:14.479 --> 01:23:17.920
Until we all were older, until we all worked together.

01:23:18.239 --> 01:23:26.800
Yes, and I didn't want my kids to have that, and then I realized a couple of years ago, I was like, man, I'm treating my kids exactly how dad treated me.

01:23:26.800 --> 01:23:28.960
And and so I've tried to be more involved.

01:23:28.960 --> 01:23:31.840
Unfortunately, there's not a lot to be involved in because my kids are lazy.

01:23:31.920 --> 01:23:35.279
But well, I loved your mom to death, and I thought she was amazing.

01:23:35.279 --> 01:23:40.239
But for the longest time, her most popular phrase that I heard more than anything was, God damn it, Joseph.

01:23:40.239 --> 01:23:42.000
All the fucking time.

01:23:42.000 --> 01:23:44.239
It was always goddamn, Joseph.

01:23:44.239 --> 01:23:46.479
Well, that sounds about that track, right?

01:23:46.720 --> 01:23:50.079
I'm I'm I'm really trying to think of an argument for that, but I don't have one.

01:23:50.079 --> 01:23:57.279
But I didn't want to be that kind of dad, and and I have been that kind of dad, so I've been really trying to balance that out, especially now that they're older.

01:23:57.279 --> 01:24:00.239
My problem is I'm very impatient.

01:24:00.239 --> 01:24:05.600
And and when I want something done or when I want to do something, I want to do it now.

01:24:05.600 --> 01:24:07.439
I don't want to be like, I'm gonna plan for this.

01:24:07.439 --> 01:24:12.079
No, I want to do it now, and that bleeds over to I want the trash taken out.

01:24:12.079 --> 01:24:14.239
Yeah, I'm like, Oliver, take the trash out.

01:24:14.239 --> 01:24:16.800
Yeah, and then it takes him five five minutes to get to it.

01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:18.239
No, I want it fucking taken out now.

01:24:18.239 --> 01:24:19.359
I know, I'm the same way.

01:24:19.359 --> 01:24:32.079
And so I told them I told both of them, and Sam sees it now, and I'm able to actually like have a conversation with Sam about my weird feelings versus his weird feelings.

01:24:32.079 --> 01:24:37.680
And I mean, that motherfucker went to fucking therapy and told his therapist that I'm an asshole.

01:24:38.000 --> 01:24:41.840
And that was like my eye opening on my the problem is is like the same with you.

01:24:41.840 --> 01:24:48.079
Apparently, it's like I get these thoughts, like for example, right now, like if I'm like, oh yeah, the trash needs to be taken out.

01:24:48.079 --> 01:24:49.920
Jack, I need you to take the trash out.

01:24:49.920 --> 01:24:58.079
And it's like, but I want it to be done now now, because that thought crossed your mind and you grabbed it and you want results from it.

01:24:58.079 --> 01:25:08.239
So my kids messed up, you know, when they were younger and they didn't do something immediately, but like I don't have to ask twice anymore because they learn like they've learned like what your expectation is.

01:25:08.239 --> 01:25:08.800
You know what?

01:25:08.880 --> 01:25:13.279
If you just take the trash out as soon as I ask, tomorrow we're gonna do something awesome.

01:25:13.279 --> 01:25:14.720
We're not, we're gonna sit at home.

01:25:14.960 --> 01:25:19.279
But well, also look at it as as fucked up an individuals as we are.

01:25:19.279 --> 01:25:21.600
Both of y'all kids are pretty well adjusted.

01:25:21.920 --> 01:25:25.359
Oh, I you know that fucking my kid.

01:25:25.359 --> 01:25:30.800
I can I can't speak for Justin, but my kids, the only reason they're as great as they are is because of Nikki.

01:25:30.800 --> 01:25:36.399
I mean, she's fucking the loving the mom that you wish uh that I wish that I had.

01:25:36.399 --> 01:25:39.119
And it's like what are you talking about?

01:25:39.119 --> 01:25:41.359
What you did have that mom.

01:25:41.359 --> 01:25:45.279
Uh, maybe in our in the later years, but then she fucking died.

01:25:45.840 --> 01:25:50.079
It's like again, well, I I'm sorry that you took 15 years to warm up to mom.

01:25:50.079 --> 01:25:52.319
But I'll tell you.

01:25:52.479 --> 01:25:55.039
I'm sorry it took you 15 years to warm up to dad.

01:25:55.279 --> 01:25:57.199
But I'll be honest with you, that 15 years.

01:25:57.199 --> 01:25:59.199
I had a pretty I had it pretty good, didn't I?

01:25:59.439 --> 01:26:05.279
Yeah, we fucking talked about this before, this dumb motherfucker right here, always getting her ATM card, fucking pulling out money.

01:26:05.279 --> 01:26:09.039
Anytime he just fucking had a twinge, like, oh, I want to go do something.

01:26:09.039 --> 01:26:12.800
Look, I can't say anything to benefit from that sometimes.

01:26:12.800 --> 01:26:14.960
Mom's like, oh, here.

01:26:15.600 --> 01:26:16.079
Anything you want to do.

01:26:16.079 --> 01:26:17.119
There was no here.

01:26:17.119 --> 01:26:18.640
You're like, I had to ask her.

01:26:18.640 --> 01:26:20.640
No, I just went to the Bank of America.

01:26:20.640 --> 01:26:22.000
Meanwhile, right over here.

01:26:22.319 --> 01:26:25.439
Meanwhile, you changed the scene over to me and Nathan.

01:26:25.439 --> 01:26:28.000
It's like, hey, dad, uh, I want to go do this.

01:26:28.000 --> 01:26:28.880
You're not getting shit.

01:26:28.880 --> 01:26:29.760
You fuck you.

01:26:29.760 --> 01:26:30.720
You go get a job.

01:26:30.720 --> 01:26:31.359
You know what?

01:26:31.359 --> 01:26:32.479
I got a fucking job.

01:26:32.720 --> 01:26:38.159
You know, so Sam's Sam turns 16, uh, and apparently they made his appointment to get his driver's license.

01:26:38.159 --> 01:26:40.000
And that is what I'm worried about.

01:26:40.239 --> 01:26:41.520
Fuck, we're old.

01:26:41.520 --> 01:26:44.960
It just makes me I've accepted it.

01:26:45.119 --> 01:26:49.520
You're just hearing it, you like you hear pieces of it because all of our kids have gotten old.

01:26:49.840 --> 01:26:57.760
And I don't have any children to watch get old, and then you're sure like that, like you and I might see each other once a year, and that and that's just bullshit.

01:26:58.159 --> 01:26:58.800
It is bullshit.

01:26:58.800 --> 01:26:59.600
I don't leave my house.

01:26:59.760 --> 01:27:03.760
Listen, I tried to get you guys to fight about it in the beginning, and nobody wanted to do it.

01:27:03.760 --> 01:27:04.800
Now that we've got a lot of things.

01:27:06.560 --> 01:27:10.000
But the reason is for the last 15 years, I've been dedicated to raising my children.

01:27:10.000 --> 01:27:13.439
Like, that's what I've wanted to do, and I've done a shitty job of it, but they're very well adjusted.

01:27:13.439 --> 01:27:14.880
You haven't done a shitty job of it.

01:27:14.880 --> 01:27:18.800
Sam has excelled and he's going to Yellow in spite of both of their parents.

01:27:18.800 --> 01:27:22.399
Let me clarify, he's not going to Yell as a student.

01:27:22.399 --> 01:27:24.960
He's going to Yell next summer to visit.

01:27:24.960 --> 01:27:29.920
Listen, you he's going to summer camp and yell at trees.

01:27:29.920 --> 01:27:31.439
Um, it's some college thing.

01:27:31.439 --> 01:27:32.000
I don't know.

01:27:32.000 --> 01:27:33.920
Apparently, it's a lot of money, and I said no.

01:27:33.920 --> 01:27:34.880
And so Virginia's.

01:27:35.039 --> 01:27:37.520
They're well adjusted in spite of both of their parents' fucked up shit.

01:27:37.520 --> 01:27:39.359
So Virginia's mom is paying for it.

01:27:39.359 --> 01:27:44.159
Well, that's the thing, is all kids are fucked up by their by their parents in one way or another.

01:27:44.319 --> 01:27:52.079
I never, you know, I always realized that we were fucked up by by mom and dad, but I never realized it until my kids were fucked up by me.

01:27:52.319 --> 01:27:54.319
Yeah, by the shit that you were doing.

01:27:54.319 --> 01:27:59.039
Because listen, this whole non-emotion thing is not just us.

01:27:59.039 --> 01:28:04.479
It was it's it stems from Gene Harold to Freeman H to us.

01:28:04.479 --> 01:28:05.359
I agree.

01:28:05.359 --> 01:28:10.079
And here we are, and now and then he's he's all kinds of fucked up.

01:28:10.239 --> 01:28:12.319
Oh, I was fucked up by the parents who didn't raise me.

01:28:12.560 --> 01:28:12.720
I know.

01:28:16.800 --> 01:28:19.920
Well, I mean, I don't know if you agree with it.

01:28:19.920 --> 01:28:20.720
I loved your mom and dad.

01:28:20.720 --> 01:28:21.199
I don't know.

01:28:21.199 --> 01:28:32.399
No, no, they're they're fucking amazing, but but also what I thought that I would not have abandonment issues because I was raised by my grandparents as my mom and dad, and I didn't know I was adopted until I was like nine.

01:28:32.399 --> 01:28:36.319
And then I hit my like 30s and I have abandonment issues.

01:28:36.319 --> 01:28:37.199
Like, what the fuck?

01:28:37.199 --> 01:28:38.479
Where did this come from?

01:28:38.479 --> 01:28:39.119
What the fuck?

01:28:39.600 --> 01:28:41.840
Now you're in your 40s and Roger's having to deal with it.

01:28:41.840 --> 01:28:43.119
That's what I was gonna say.

01:28:43.199 --> 01:28:54.960
It's like, look, look, we're in our mid-40s right now, and the problem with all this is you're starting, I'm in my early 40s, early to mid-40s, and we're still my early ones too, you fuck one.

01:28:54.960 --> 01:28:57.359
We're still dealing with these things.

01:28:57.359 --> 01:28:58.399
That's what I'm saying.

01:28:58.399 --> 01:29:07.199
Is like, you you know how like yeah, you know how you see people on TV that'll be like fucking 50 years old, and like, I ain't fucking with him and all this bullshit.

01:29:07.199 --> 01:29:09.840
You're just like, God, I thought I left all that shit in high school.

01:29:09.840 --> 01:29:12.800
Well, this is the same as that, just on a different level.

01:29:12.800 --> 01:29:18.880
It's like we're all still fucked up from our childhoods, we're all still fucked up from our upbringings or anything else.

01:29:19.039 --> 01:29:25.199
I had somebody had somebody say to me, uh, you seem so well adjusted, and you got like you got all figured out.

01:29:25.199 --> 01:29:27.520
Motherfucker, I'm making it up every day as I go.

01:29:27.920 --> 01:29:28.880
Like I'm 41 years old.

01:29:28.880 --> 01:29:32.560
I just figured out I hadn't had like an actual job in 10 years.

01:29:32.800 --> 01:29:39.600
I just figured out in the past 10 years that all the adults we grew up with that we look up to that that had it together.

01:29:39.600 --> 01:29:44.399
No, they just figured out that nobody fucking has it together, and everyone makes it the fuck up every day as they go.

01:29:44.399 --> 01:29:46.159
You guys nobody has it anything for that.

01:29:46.399 --> 01:29:51.199
I have like a limited camera scope into like mom and dad in the 80s.

01:29:51.199 --> 01:29:54.079
It's probably the same bullshit as we were doing.

01:29:54.079 --> 01:30:02.399
I I I never Sam called me last week and said, Hey dad, can you spend five thousand dollars for me to go to Yale for two weeks.

01:30:02.399 --> 01:30:03.520
Nah, no.

01:30:03.520 --> 01:30:04.159
No, no.

01:30:04.159 --> 01:30:06.880
I never called I remember what benefit does that have.

01:30:06.880 --> 01:30:10.800
I called dad and I was like, hey dad, I'd like to go to college and he laughed at me first.

01:30:10.800 --> 01:30:13.840
And then he said you can join the military.

01:30:13.840 --> 01:30:16.479
So Sam was like I want to do this.

01:30:16.479 --> 01:30:18.079
I was like, well there's the army.

01:30:19.840 --> 01:30:21.439
Be all that you can be, son.

01:30:21.439 --> 01:30:22.000
Yeah.

01:30:22.000 --> 01:30:32.159
It's it's it's it's a very weird situation with the now that you have kids and you're literally looking into a mirror to see all of the fucked up shit.

01:30:32.159 --> 01:30:35.279
And you know, thank God the kids have made it through it.

01:30:35.279 --> 01:30:44.479
Think about the kids that don't make it through this stuff and they latch onto drugs or alcohol or or it's suicide and all these things that can happen.

01:30:44.479 --> 01:30:48.159
It's like I think that we're very blessed.

01:30:48.319 --> 01:30:57.920
I know you don't like me using that word, but we're blessed but I think also y'all y'all short sell yourselves as dads because your kids haven't gone there.

01:30:57.920 --> 01:31:01.279
Especially you Tim because it's not just Nikki doing that.

01:31:01.279 --> 01:31:01.760
That's you.

01:31:01.760 --> 01:31:10.159
That's you with the structure and with being a father and being there and present even though you think you weren't and I your kids aren't on fucking drugs.

01:31:10.159 --> 01:31:11.279
They're all successful.

01:31:11.279 --> 01:31:14.000
They're all doing good things they all put out good things in the world.

01:31:14.079 --> 01:31:19.199
They're all good people I'll actually agree with him because whenever there were kids I criticized the fuck out of you behind your back.

01:31:19.199 --> 01:31:21.119
What are you talking about?

01:31:21.119 --> 01:31:24.640
Because I was the one that taught your kids about baseball.

01:31:24.640 --> 01:31:35.439
I I was the one that all this shit and now as an having my own kids and seeing that no you're you're a great dad and you need to acknowledge that no I'm still a shitty dad but it's okay.

01:31:35.600 --> 01:31:40.960
No you're not a shitty dad then at the at this point other than you fucking say too many bad words around them.

01:31:41.119 --> 01:32:15.039
I do my kid I don't ever cuss around my kids and the fact that they listen to this podcast makes me twinge at least in the beginning it didn't but Sam listens to this podcast too well I'm sorry my parents from the get go we had the fucking card group gang over there playing cards and getting drunk every Friday and Saturday night and they were like you're gonna hear this but you don't speak it until you get older I that was the only rules a few weeks ago I came into the garage so Sam didn't know that I was coming home and he was fucking yelling at Oliver and he said some fucks.

01:32:15.199 --> 01:32:22.079
I'm sure he did and I said I never want to hear you say that he said you say it and I was like you're correct I had no argument.

01:32:22.079 --> 01:32:40.720
But why would you put that expectation on your kids when we were cussing like sailors at 10 fucking years old yeah but I don't know did so your kids are all grown now but when they were kids did you did you monitor the type of music they were listening to um in the beginning yeah I I don't and that's because I was never monitored.

01:32:40.800 --> 01:32:49.680
I was gonna say we were yeah we never had a monitor it's funny because like Eli I had him on the podcast the other day which you'll hear that soon you had Eli on the podcast I did.

01:32:49.680 --> 01:32:50.399
Did he talk?

01:32:50.399 --> 01:33:27.600
Oh shit he was fantastic he really was I've never been more excited for a podcast right he was other than when Hayden I are together he was really good but hey like Eli I've never heard a profane word come out of his mouth ever Uncle Joe has well I know that he because listen because he this this is my point in all of it like I used to never say anything bad around my dad or anything because I had a reverence of like he was like important he was on this pedestal he's my dad it's like he wouldn't accept this Eli has that respect and doesn't do that.

01:33:27.600 --> 01:33:38.880
If he said something bad I would probably be like that's kind of weird but he's a fucking adult he's 25 years old almost 26 Hayden does not have that gives zero fucks.

01:33:38.880 --> 01:34:00.399
Exactly Jack will say things when he gets rambling off because he cusses like a sailor too and I'm like keeping he does I'm like I'm like hey hey hey you told him to go to work at El Siren all those I think I think the worst thing that happened was you invited me to New York yes that is where it all fell apart for me.

01:34:00.399 --> 01:35:14.800
Because look my kids with Jack and Hayden my kids listen because I remember thinking when we got older I'm like when is it okay that I can be myself around my parents now smoke cigarettes around them or I think I've told that story on do any of those things but like my kids have passed that threshold I think it's because a lot of it's because of this podcast and Hayden gives zero fucks anyway but like we as a family like I ne I never cuss around even now it's like if we're just out there talking and hanging out it's like you will never hear me say a bad word around my kids and the fact that they listen to this like I said the first five or ten episodes I'm like I don't want my kids to listen can I like block just my kids listening to this I did I didn't want Sam to listen to the first episode that I was on because it was a story about me calling him a cunt a cunt and he listened to it and and he was like hey dad can we talk about that podcast I'm like no we can but they're fucking kids they're like Eric said we were out there cussing like sailors at 10 years old on the fucking monkey bars and everything else it's like we were big shit I will say this Sam is a much better 15 year old than I was yes if my kids cuss and that's all they're doing then I'm especially Hayden.

01:35:14.800 --> 01:35:27.920
I can't even say kids they're fucking adults I mean they're all adults you dropped Hayden off at 17 in New York City which was not not approved by me but I got overruled and and that's fine.

01:35:28.079 --> 01:35:40.640
So you know all the fucked up shit that the three of us did has no level at 14 years old I'm walking up the street to come see what my best friend is doing.

01:35:40.640 --> 01:35:44.960
Jesus Christ and I get kidnapped by a purple van with people drinking a keg.

01:35:45.199 --> 01:35:54.960
Yeah we did have a keg difference it was Killians it was wonderful fucking fucking Ben hold on Paul 14 years old Ben and his fucking Killians that's like the worst fucking beer ever.

01:35:54.960 --> 01:36:05.760
Actually Killians isn't that bad you only say that because you got a keg of that shit for your first wedding I would rather have Smithics two kegs of that and you and I if we're drinking Irish beer if we're drinking fucking Irish beer Killians is shit.

01:36:05.840 --> 01:36:10.159
I want Smithics all the way it's a bit it's a better Irish beer.

01:36:10.479 --> 01:36:24.399
All I'm saying is Sam is a much better teenager than me and Hayden I I love after I do a podcast with you and I mention Hayden he always texts me he'd be like I'm still waiting for you to come visit New York.

01:36:24.640 --> 01:36:57.840
He's in fucking Mexico right now we'll see if he responds to it we pausing pausing all right then so Hayden Hayden is in Mexico right now he went with his girlfriend's Mexican and so I was concerned about it because there's a lot of uh cartel out there that could get him they don't want him you said Hayden always texts you after the episode so he's still listening to him yeah well his text is always I'm still waiting for you to come visit New York and my question is when are you and me going to go to New York?

01:36:58.159 --> 01:36:59.600
Let's fucking go just the two of us.

01:36:59.600 --> 01:37:26.479
We got plenty of vacation I thought you went to New York we did but we would like to go without everybody that went with us he's gonna be these things waiting you visit but you can go visit before let's plan for December right now why I don't have a real ID I don't either but we can go down if you have a passport yeah dude I don't have a passport why don't we go in December passport's easier to the second car shit I'm off a I took a whole week off in December I'm burning vacation time I know I need to do the same thing.

01:37:27.600 --> 01:37:40.399
I've never flown on a plane shut the fuck up I've even flown on a plane I've flown a helicopter not a plane did you listen to my podcast where I talked about my first flight yeah it scared the shit out did you listen to his podcast about his first helicopter ride?

01:37:40.640 --> 01:37:56.720
Yeah it's called the helicopter ride I pissed all over myself but that's because I had too much to drink no I want to go to New York I want to go to New York just the two of us and the best part is Hayden's like you can just crash I will sleep on the couch and you can sleep on the bed I'm like no I'll sleep on the couch.

01:37:56.800 --> 01:38:18.399
I don't want to sleep no I don't know what you want to do in that no all of that sounds like oh that's a good idea but until I've been down that road until I'm like you get to New York and then you're like no I'm getting a fucking hotel well I'll be okay with the two of us sharing a hotel room as long as as long as we pre-plan it I mean that's for you that's the problem.

01:38:19.199 --> 01:38:24.239
I'll just have this Uber drop me off in New York City on Times Square and we'll just walk into this hotel in June.

01:38:24.640 --> 01:38:31.439
The only time I ever been to New York is when I was a little kid my dad drove a truck and went in New York and it was fucking horrible.

01:38:31.680 --> 01:39:17.600
Listen driving a truck New York City is fucking awful but the subway is amazing and I will go back just around on the sub oh the subway in Atlanta is amazing too right yeah it's pretty it's a it's an amazing um feat that we've done that we can build a city on top of a system like that but it is kind of janky but two of two of your three children text me on the regular usually after a podcast what who else Jack doesn't really text me but I see him every it's the way he said it he said two of your three but I see Jack you know what what's gonna happen when we're celebrating Gene after he actually passes why are we recording this on a Monday not a Friday or Saturday night because everybody's got shit to do tomorrow.

01:39:17.600 --> 01:39:31.359
All I know is I spent a hundred dollars on this fucking really good bourbon and uh well thank you it's been good we'll save the other half for Gene no we're not we're gonna have to get hold of the bottle it's pretty good that double is it is really good and smooth.

01:39:31.680 --> 01:39:36.239
As someone who has decided that whiskey is no longer my drink I have drank quite a bit of it.

01:39:36.560 --> 01:40:55.840
Two of the three two of the three I I'll be honest with you I don't remember doing that but I'm just trusting you that it did I think I think you'll be very surprised when you hear Eli's podcast we had another another guest on there I won't tell you who it is but it was three of us and I told I I told Eli to tell the story of when he got fucking pulled over and went to jail for speeding did he go you you didn't know I knew that your one son got mugged I didn't he was going 140 miles an hour in my fucking minivan oh yeah I remember that and he went to jail I'm I'm excited about about an Eli podcast yeah he was good and he was really good I was because he's not one that like talks a lot he's yeah he's learned from me over the years like we had that that part he hasn't learned shit from you no we had that this is what he did learn we had that party up there and he like he's used to like going and hiding see I have this area here that I can go and hide in and so he's used to going and hiding and he stays quiet and he's just you know he doesn't talk too much he's like not one with the words but he did great when he was a kid before Sam was born I spent a lot of time with him and then I didn't because Sam was born and then a few Christmases ago we all got very very drunk.

01:40:56.000 --> 01:41:19.680
Yeah we made him carry the pitcher around we went caroling we have still not been a part of that we jump caroling we go caring it happened last year too every year it happens every year I don't know why the fuck we it's all two traditions no I texted on Custol last year because I know you're fucking doing it well it's your fucking birthday so you might but you can come on my birthday because no he does anything I'm fucking Christmas one tradition that Tim and I'm just invited last year.

01:41:19.840 --> 01:42:10.159
There's one well that's it's his fucking house look at listen well then this motherfucker just tells me well just show up I don't know what the fuck you're doing you to Tim's house it's not my fucking house to all of the 14 listeners and Eric you it's an open invitation to do drunk caroling but we are not the type of people that just show the fuck up go ahead say what you gotta say there there are two traditions there's one that we're keeping alive and that is frying turkeys we will do that maybe we'll add Eric and Roger and there's a new tradition over the last couple years a few years at this point that I will there's so there's two things I'll show up for the one the frying turkeys is pretty easy because we do it at my house but I always show up for the drunk caroling and last year was a little disappointing.

01:42:10.159 --> 01:42:18.079
You fucker have never been invited to your house for frying fucking turkeys either because we do it in the middle of the day on like a Wednesday and well I work for my fucking self.

01:42:18.239 --> 01:42:31.680
Yeah you can come over and do it yeah we're gonna fry but there's takes a long time there's also a lot of turkey there's also the Christmas mullet that you have to wear while you're going around and I have no problem with that I'll grow one you did not hesitate.

01:42:31.680 --> 01:42:45.119
You're gonna have to pry it out of Eli's cold dead hands though Eli was Eli was he was fucking wasted we made him carry the pitcher around I wrote the story you had a keg of Modellos Modelo Negro and it was amazing.

01:42:45.199 --> 01:42:52.800
Yeah Modello Negro yeah that's funny and he he did he carried around the entire neighborhood and we were fucking sloshed well this year I'm fucking in for all of it.

01:42:52.800 --> 01:43:07.840
Yeah I do it come on over we usually go around six or seven or something I don't know because I'd rather hang out with y'all for my birthday and Christmas than fucking that first year we did it there was somebody in this neighborhood and I don't want to cause you problems there was some bitch in this neighborhood who wanted to take control over it.

01:43:08.000 --> 01:43:38.000
No she was like lady do we not have music sheets no I don't have a fucking music sheet do you know the words I do not do the words become faithful all the time you all faithful I'm here and I'm drunk I'm ready to go that's all that matters yeah all we need is a voice that's all we need and I don't even sing I don't do any of it it it's always it's fun and and what's very surprising is the people that are home when you go and knock on their because nobody ever does that shit anymore.

01:43:38.159 --> 01:43:43.439
I've did you as a child Eric Freeman as a child did you go caroling?

01:43:43.840 --> 01:44:05.600
No but when I was in the when I was inquiring the middle school in high school we did that's not the same as a child shut the fuck up that's not the same just saying good lord we we invite a man over we invite a man over to speak on the podcast and you tell him to shut the fuck up hostility shit yeah maybe there was some hostility there we need to work out there Joe.

01:44:05.600 --> 01:44:55.119
That old fucking wood for reason picked up on it and we didn't to be honest it has nothing to do with you for my beast all right in the last few minutes here before we wrap this thing up yeah yeah yeah yeah what are you wrapping it up for and after he has about 14 drinks he's like I'm ready to go like and that's where I'm like we need to we need to tone just hold on when we first started this not even we when you first started this podcast the first few that I was on you and I got pretty drunk before we even started that's true it's not my fault you changed your fucking format what did I change my format to I can't I can't start drinking until we start podcasting oh that's right because you were getting hostile towards Daniel that was the two sad dads creation there.

01:44:55.279 --> 01:44:58.000
You know what's funny is they think that I'm hostile to I love Daniel.

01:44:58.000 --> 01:44:59.439
I'm not hostile towards Daniel at all.

01:44:59.680 --> 01:45:05.840
Eric he's very hostile I you say you love Daniel but you start on the podcast insulting Daniel.

01:45:05.840 --> 01:45:36.720
Nope Eric's like on Mike on Mike's behalf Eric's like I was on Mike's not yours on my head's like as an outsider listening you said hostile I was taking Daniel's hostility not yours called me on Saturday while you were podcasting with Nikki and Daniel and Daniel said what did he say you're the most hostile person I've ever met that's true he did say that Eric you've known me longer than anybody other than this dumbass.

01:45:36.720 --> 01:45:42.960
Would you say that I'm a hostile person no I think you're like the most non-confrontational person.

01:45:43.119 --> 01:45:47.439
Daniel's a bitch well listen there's a couple things going on here.

01:45:47.439 --> 01:45:56.560
And then you confront Daniel and say he's a bitch Daniel is a bitch but you're also a bitch and you are hostile towards Daniel.

01:45:56.800 --> 01:45:59.600
Look I never met Daniel so I have no fucking clue.

01:45:59.600 --> 01:46:06.800
Well maybe we need to get him in here and get you on here so when the fuck is Mike Lord coming on the show he won't I asked Mike Lord the other day he said he's ready.

01:46:06.960 --> 01:47:12.239
No he's awesome he won't he won't come on he has the voice for this he does it'll be good it'll be a good episode too if he's worried about it just being me we can get some we can get all you know Mike do you know him personally we all got drunk we we got drunk and showed up here one night we can have four we did his wife feel fit because he came out here to ferry Mexican place what is that Mexican place behind McDonald's and shit whatever it is on Holly 100 next to Publix beside uh brew house and shit it's Tito's isn't it oh yeah Tito's yeah yeah he got in a lot of trouble we were there hanging out was I there yeah you weren't at Tito's no you were obviously at your own fucking house yeah okay we showed up here at like nine o'clock at night he was fucking wasting oh that's right that's right I remember that yeah we need to bring him on here I don't know why people think that drinking with the three people at this table is a good idea shout shout out to Mike Lord it never goes well for anyone out here Lord Michael's awesome it'd be good so I'll allow you to wrap this up I appreciate that so I think you need to have Russell Freeman on and then have Russell and the other Mike on at the same time because they're the same person.

01:47:12.399 --> 01:47:23.439
And Daniel's a bitch all right so I've never met him I need you to say it Daniel's a bitch there's an after the the after show here where we continue to drink this Woodford.

01:47:23.600 --> 01:47:26.319
Thank you guys I mean I feel like at this point we might as well finish this bottle.

01:47:26.399 --> 01:47:27.439
