SPEAKER_00

You're hanging out with Bob and Brad. Two guys with too many moods, too many takes, and not nearly enough facts. Welcome to Bob and Brad Perpetually Wrong.

SPEAKER_01

Two, one.

SPEAKER_03

Welcome everybody. Bob and Brad Perpetually Wrong. We're uh hosted by the B. Zomer Trucking Uh Association, Conglomeration Corporation. Boy, those guys must have a fuck ton of money because I saw him standing at the right there at the White House today.

SPEAKER_01

I think he gave a speech today.

SPEAKER_03

Did you see that?

SPEAKER_01

I think so.

SPEAKER_03

He looked like he was ready.

SPEAKER_01

I don't think they were ready to hear what he would have to say.

SPEAKER_03

No, no teleprompter needed.

SPEAKER_01

No, no.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, but he looked good standing.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I'd vote for him. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Oh fuck, I'd vote for him too. Yeah. Yeah. First lady, she's uh she'd be all right. Yep. Put her ass on a quarter and call it good. Yeah. Um, just got back from Florida. We had a nice 10-day vacation. How was it? It was beautiful. Got a lot to talk about, the things that irked me going down there. But uh the one thing I wanted to touch on, because you run into a lot of local people down there. You know, it's kind of weird I'm gonna spend three grand to go visit my fucking neighbors, but it was kind of fun. It was a lot of fun. But anywho, when we got down there, I was questioned which direction did I come down? And I said, Well, I took 96 to 23. I'd have said I went south through Ann Arbor. And uh one of the people that was going with us said that they thought it would be shorter to take 127 down to Hudson and get on 23 down in that area.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And uh said he never been more scared in his life. And I said, From what? And he said, Well, do you know anybody that works for MDOT? And I said, matter of fact, I know a few guys.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I kept spiking the brakes, riding on the zipper more than I should have, but there ain't no goddamn guardrails left standing on 127. And I said, I know a guy that takes care of that. And I'm gonna bring it up in our next show and ask him to just casually explain to us why their place looks like m fucking Beirut. It is torn as shit. Well, and then you guys don't even fucking take the time. I don't know, maybe call Capitol Barricading if you guys can't do it, but somebody needs to put a goddamn barrel at the end of that thing.

SPEAKER_01

We have barrels at the end of that.

SPEAKER_03

Somebody knocked them out of the way. Look at it tomorrow when you go to work.

SPEAKER_01

Well, we've been fixing them for a week and a half or so now. Um winter was rough. It was a rough winter this year for the for the idiots. And and I and I use that as a blanket statement, idiots, and I'm gonna get into that on who the idiots are.

SPEAKER_03

So the road conditions were unfavorable. They were very unfavorable.

SPEAKER_01

And in a lot of situations this winter with the storms that we had, they didn't have to be in favor unfavorable, infavorable, unfavorable, whatever, whatever you want to call it.

SPEAKER_04

One of them, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um but you see, we at our garage we have a section of territory that we take care of.

SPEAKER_02

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And then we also have other M Dot garages to either side, north, south, east, or west of us. That they also maintain stretches of the highway. And there's little overlaps. That way ever every inch is covered.

SPEAKER_03

My roads ending, your road's beginning.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so then I go to the next turnaround, you come to the next turnaround this way, and now we got a little overlap.

SPEAKER_03

Well, there's a lot of uh So you guys turn around in them turnarounds. Yes. I thought you were just shooting the shit.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no, no. Guys will tell you that that's all I do is sit and turn around, but by God, my road's fucking cleaner than anybody else's in my area. So if I'm sitting in the turnaround, that's because I did such a good fucking job to begin with. You don't have to do that. I got time for a break. Yeah. So the problem is, is you get guys that think they know what they're doing.

SPEAKER_03

Don't you guys go to school?

SPEAKER_01

That there's the only way to get better is to experience it and go out and learn from what you're doing.

SPEAKER_03

I think they should pack your fucking bags and send you up in the Yukon and have you learn how to take care of snow up there, and then when you come down here, it's like But they handle it different than we do.

SPEAKER_01

And those people on the road understand the situation. These motherfuckers around here think that just because it's fucking their car can go 80 on the ice normal people and text and drive while they're doing it, that they're invincible. Well, sorry, but you gotta drive according to the conditions.

SPEAKER_03

You should.

SPEAKER_01

But what I'm gonna tell you is the shit you're seeing in some of our areas that you're bringing up is due to other garages not knowing what the fuck they're doing, and when the road's dry and it's snowing, and it's 12 fucking degrees outside, and it's windy.

SPEAKER_03

That's a mixture for an accident.

SPEAKER_01

No, it's it doesn't have to be. Could be. It could be, but if it's snowing and the road's dry and the wind is blowing, and it's 12 degrees outside, that snow's gonna hit the pavement, and most all of it's gonna blow right off the road. Or you can snow snakes, or you can yeah, snow snakes, absolutely. Look, you're smarter than half the fucking M dot guys.

SPEAKER_02

You know.

SPEAKER_01

So anyway, you get these guys that freak out, don't know how to handle that, don't have the patience. And they want to, oh my god, it's snowing, we've got to turn the salt on and salt the road. Well, it was dry, now all that moisture that's coming out of the air is coming down, hitting the dry pavement, and getting stuck there because the salt is drawing that moisture in.

SPEAKER_03

Makes sense.

SPEAKER_01

Now it's 12 degrees outside, you got the road wet from the salt, now it's gonna turn to ice.

SPEAKER_03

You're making ice.

SPEAKER_01

Yes. Where if you'd have just left it the fuck alone.

SPEAKER_03

So you're saying that some of these guys are making ice.

SPEAKER_01

Correct. You might as well call them motherfuckers LG, because they're ice-making motherfuckers.

SPEAKER_03

So when I'm driving down the road and all of a sudden I cross a line and it gets super slippery, it's not because they got more snow or rain necessarily. Not necessarily. It could be because you're salting the fuck out of something that don't need to be.

SPEAKER_01

When it's not needed, correct.

SPEAKER_03

And who determines that? The guy in the truck?

SPEAKER_01

The guy in the truck determines it because it's his area to maintain and take care of. But the problem is too many people freak out because it's snowing.

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

And they don't they don't just wait. Let let the let the road start getting wet from the snow.

SPEAKER_03

And see what you're fighting.

SPEAKER_01

And then see where it's turning. If it's turning, then you go out and you salt it. But once you start salting on super cold days and you do that and you get the road wet, you're married to that motherfucker until the snow's done and the cold's gone.

SPEAKER_03

Just like Pringles. Once you pop, you can't stop.

SPEAKER_01

That's right. So a lot of our endings are hit on the edges of our territory because the other guys put salt down when they shouldn't have. And that's happened a lot this year because we got a real winner this year, and a lot of guys are inexperienced and don't know what they're doing, and they just freak out and win a doubt, throw it out.

SPEAKER_03

That'll happen when you take gravel tane drivers and just toss them into a salt shaker.

SPEAKER_01

Correct.

SPEAKER_03

Nothing against them. No, you sprinkle dirt, but you can't.

SPEAKER_01

It's a learning process. And if you don't want to take the time and take it serious and learn what the Who's supposed to teach 'em. Well, we do have what they call snowplow school, and it's a you can't you you can sit in a classroom all all day and talk to these people. You're not you that doesn't work. You need to you need to explain it. Be out there. You need to be doing it. And you know, the senior guys at these garages should have this figured out and teaching the newer guys, but the problem is there's a bunch of senior guys that still do the same damn thing and do it wrong.

SPEAKER_03

And they think they're doing it right, so they go.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I've been doing this for 20 years, I know exactly how to kill clean my road up.

SPEAKER_03

That's why it's so slippery.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah. So but I take my job pretty serious when it comes to the snow plowing because I I f I take it as a new challenge every time.

SPEAKER_03

How about taking it seriously when it comes to repairing guardrail? We've done is there a reason why you guys can't put in a 10-hour day on Friday and just really knock it out?

SPEAKER_01

Because it's not our day heads up.

SPEAKER_03

If I was going off, I think I would mandate you guys to overtime. Um There's a lot of things that need to be fixed. And we drive down that one highway, and there is a valley, no shit, that wide that you could fall into and just be dead. Especially if you're on a motorbike.

SPEAKER_01

You're talking about Powell's.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah. Well, just it looks like goddamn Grand Canyon.

SPEAKER_01

We have this winter, like just over the last few months, we have thrown eight ton of patch every single day during our shift.

SPEAKER_03

How many guys?

SPEAKER_01

Um there's three guys shoveling. So there's one driving the truck, two shoveling. They rotate. Two shoveling? Two shoveling.

SPEAKER_03

So that's four tons per shovel.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

A day.

SPEAKER_01

And they rotate every like fifteen minutes.

SPEAKER_03

Fifteen minutes.

SPEAKER_01

Fifteen or twenty.

SPEAKER_03

How old are these guys?

SPEAKER_01

Well, all various ages. A couple of the young young bucks say they I'll just keep shoveling.

SPEAKER_03

We should have a job shadow day.

SPEAKER_01

It's bring your kid to work day soon. You want to be my kid? Is it? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I would love to. I don't think that's a good idea.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. All right. But no, we we've we've thrown like a hundred and seventy-five ton of cold patch over the last couple months.

SPEAKER_03

That's a lot.

SPEAKER_01

Just in our little area.

SPEAKER_03

But because we're paying an extra 52 cents a gallon of gas.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

To fix some things.

SPEAKER_01

But that isn't us. That is the contracts that are done with the private contractors to build the roads.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, those are the road builders.

SPEAKER_01

Yes. That isn't for that isn't for us.

SPEAKER_03

We should get into that.

SPEAKER_01

I don't want no part of it.

SPEAKER_03

I think you could scam them pretty good till you get contracted.

SPEAKER_01

I think every contractor out there is scamming them. I'm sure pretty good.

SPEAKER_03

Then we go down to fucking Guatemala or something and get workers.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Now you're talking.

SPEAKER_01

I don't have a few million dollars worth of equipment to do it though.

SPEAKER_03

Do you need it to start though? I mean, once you get the contract, the bank's gonna say yeah. Look into that for me.

SPEAKER_01

I'll see what I can do. But to answer your question, there's idiots. Idiots that are maintaining the road, and idiots that are driving down the road, and when you get two idiots, or well, a lot of idiots that can't comprehend what the fuck's going on, you get wreckage.

SPEAKER_03

And that's when the guardrails go to shit.

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_03

No. Can I hit the guardrail? Eighty mile an hour side swipe it, not fuck it up. I mean, it only gets fucked up if you run head end of it, right?

SPEAKER_01

It'll it'll mark it up and and maybe put a little pitch.

SPEAKER_03

A little crease.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, a little indent in it.

SPEAKER_03

Um What do you do with all the guardrail you take down?

SPEAKER_01

We cut it all up and uh throw it in our steel dumpster.

SPEAKER_03

Who who takes that back?

SPEAKER_01

That I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

And you should find out because you might be missing out on a lot of fucking money.

SPEAKER_01

It's somebody that's got a contract with the state. And let's just call it what it is.

SPEAKER_03

Yep. Go ahead. I like it when we do that.

SPEAKER_01

I got a funny feeling that when contracts get done with outside sources and that person gets picked. I can't say it for fact, so this is just for pure entertainment purposes only.

SPEAKER_03

Opinion.

SPEAKER_01

I believe that the person signing that deal might be getting a little something something in return.

SPEAKER_03

I'm sure it's coming back. It's got to. Otherwise, that you know, Brad Simon fucking hauling and garbage, he ain't gonna get it unless I'm willing to kick it back.

SPEAKER_01

No. That's just opinion. I don't have any facts on that.

SPEAKER_03

And do you guys separate like guardrail metal? You know, because that's galvanized. Yeah. That's pretty much the only metal you guys fuck with, ain't it?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, all of our all of our stuff's galvanized, yeah. The post and no, we just throw it all in one dumpster and send it on down the road. But there's a lot of it.

SPEAKER_03

I bet there's a lot of money there.

SPEAKER_01

I guarantee there is.

SPEAKER_03

Especially away from the 52 cents a gallon if we just recycle that scrap back into our pocket.

SPEAKER_01

Well, then you need to talk to your legislators on that.

SPEAKER_03

None of them listen. That's the problem.

SPEAKER_01

Because it doesn't fucking matter to them.

SPEAKER_03

No, they don't care.

SPEAKER_01

And that's the problem.

SPEAKER_03

I remember that fucking Brian Kelly. I'm not even sure if he's even anybody anymore. Years ago when he used to get his hair cut at the barber shop, it was when he was just getting a start and he was looking for voters, and I told him I that's when she was talking about the gas hike the first time. And I said, if you promise me that you're gonna say no, I'd vote for you. Because we don't need to pay anymore. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Big talk, big talk, big talk.

SPEAKER_01

They just tell you what you want to hear.

SPEAKER_03

Fast forward a couple months, gas tax goes up. I look, because you can look and see who said yes, who said no.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

He's on the yes. Come into the barbershop. I go, What in the fuck, dude? And he says, We gotta understand how it works. Sometimes you gotta say yes to things so you can get yeses on your stuff. No, that's not the way it's it's supposed to work. You stand by your word. Right. And if your shit don't pass, that just means it wasn't worth passing. Right.

SPEAKER_01

But that's not how it works anymore because there's too much of this floating around. And I'm gonna, hey, hey, let's go golfing this afternoon. Yeah. Here's a little something.

SPEAKER_03

I ain't gonna lie.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_03

I'd take a fucking check. Fuck yeah. Who who wouldn't? Right. But that's why we need to put term limits on all the motherfuckers.

SPEAKER_01

The only problem I see with term limits, because I agree. I do agree with term limits. The only problem I see with that is the people that are giving out the money have an unlimited supply of that money.

SPEAKER_03

So they're gonna keep it.

SPEAKER_01

So they're just gonna hount you, they're gonna hammer you faster.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Say, hey, you're only here for a short time. Let's get it done. Let's make this happen. Here's here's what I can do for you.

SPEAKER_03

And they've got enough money they can buy the next guy in line.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Really?

SPEAKER_01

And they'll we're gonna get you in, we're gonna we're gonna pay for your campaign, we're gonna get you in, and you're gonna do this. Oh, yeah, okay. Yeah. It's yeah, I would. It's greed. It's it's nothing but greed and power instead of what's good for people.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Morality. Speaking of what's good for people.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, what's good.

SPEAKER_03

How do you think old Trumpers doing with this uh Iran shit?

SPEAKER_01

You know?

SPEAKER_03

Don't get too deep into it because there's too many people out there that are mixed emotions.

SPEAKER_01

I I think let me be careful how I say this.

SPEAKER_03

You got to.

SPEAKER_01

I think that he is still the best option for what we had to deal with. What we had to pick from. But I think he might be pushing the boundaries a little bit much.

SPEAKER_03

Packing the bag a little too full.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. So I'd agree, because somebody asked me that the other day, and I you still happy about your Trumper? Well, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, because if we had one of the other options, I don't think we'd be in any better situation.

SPEAKER_03

I think we'd be a lot worse.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, there you said it.

SPEAKER_03

You know. But I do think he might be getting a little free-flowing.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it and it and maybe not.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe it's all part of some grand plan that we don't get to see yet.

SPEAKER_01

He is a hell of a chess player. So I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

I am getting sick of sick of the gas, so the prices. You know, and then I sit there today, fucking figure it out. I look at the signboard as I'm filling up my gas truck. Yeah, got 16 gallons, do the math. That's good, that would have cost me an extra $27 if I had a diesel. You know, somehow. And everything's more expensive. I don't understand how these fucking kids, early 20s kids.

SPEAKER_01

These they're yee boys. Yes. The yee boys.

SPEAKER_03

How are they doing it? How do you justify that waste?

SPEAKER_01

Are they still living at home? Do they not have a house payment? They gotta be. I mean, they got these jacked up pickups, they got a bunch of money wrapped up into them, they got them all tuned up. But at the same time, them tuned up trucks do get better fuel extra. They do get a lot better. So maybe it turns out to be a wash.

SPEAKER_03

It might. I don't know if you do it right, I guess, but holy fuck.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. It's it's getting uh it's out of hand. It's not getting out of hand, it's out of hand.

SPEAKER_03

And I'm fine too. Leave the diesel alone. Put that back to two bucks. Rape the fuck out of gas. I ain't gonna be happy because I'm paying more for the gas or but in turn, by all rights, I should be paying less at the grocery store. You know? Correct.

SPEAKER_01

Because everything that gets there is brought by diesel. Right. And it takes less to refine the shit. Oh, it's so why is it so much more?

SPEAKER_03

Pretty much oil with a little bit of shit pulled out of it. Right.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. So I I've never understood that. Because it's back in the day, it always used to be cheaper.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I remember it was like 10 cents a gallon cheaper.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Back in the day. When it was like 90 cents and 80 cents or something like that. So you can't tell me.

SPEAKER_03

That was the right way to have it.

SPEAKER_01

Right. But if they want to jack inflation up, you jack the diesel up because the diesel is what runs America.

SPEAKER_03

And that's where you're getting your money. Yeah. That's fucking ridiculous.

SPEAKER_01

Goddamn criminals.

SPEAKER_03

They are. And it's but that fucking grocery buying, that's getting well.

SPEAKER_01

Jesus Christ, everybody's like, oh, I remember you used to fill a cart for a hundred bucks, and you know, this a few years ago, and everybody's like, I can't even get a couple bags of groceries for a hundred bucks. Well, now you can't get a fucking one and a half bags of groceries for a hundred bucks.

SPEAKER_03

No, it's sad. You spend 300 bucks, you can carry it all out yourself.

SPEAKER_01

That's sickening.

SPEAKER_03

It is.

SPEAKER_01

Something's got to be done.

SPEAKER_03

God damn.

SPEAKER_01

And I don't have the answer.

SPEAKER_03

I will tell you, too, another fucking scam Michigan's got going on. And I wish I had more room in my vehicle.

SPEAKER_04

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_03

As uh up here, I was standing at the tailgators. That's where I filled up.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Had to run in and grab a cannon.

SPEAKER_01

We refer to that as spandex.

SPEAKER_03

Dude.

SPEAKER_01

Do you understand why? Yeah, yeah. I know you do.

SPEAKER_03

Them fucking chicks in that place, they're insane.

SPEAKER_01

There is a hiring process there.

SPEAKER_03

All right. You call me on Friday and say, hey, me and some of the boys are gonna go over to Omar's. You in? No. Why don't you and your boys come this way and we'll go to Tailgators?

SPEAKER_01

Well, I'll tell you the last time I went to Omar's.

SPEAKER_03

We weren't impressed?

SPEAKER_01

No, no. It was actually pretty gross. Really? Yeah, like That's unfortunate. No talent whatsoever. Um so no. Really? Yeah, I'll go to I'll go to I'll go to Spandex ten times over at Omar's.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know who's in charge of hiring, but I like his I like his interview project.

SPEAKER_01

Maybe it's to she. Lyclotopus.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, uh it's only the second time I've been there, and it's the second time I've said, why don't I come here more often?

SPEAKER_01

It's right around the corner from your work.

SPEAKER_03

It is. And they're all they're just giddy when I walk in there. Hello, sir. Can I help you, sir?

SPEAKER_01

It's well, that's part because you're celebrity. Oh, yeah, it is. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You're probably right.

SPEAKER_01

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03

They've heard stories about us.

SPEAKER_01

Who hasn't?

SPEAKER_03

Boy, oh boy, dude. I tell you what, this one today comes running from the donut counter because I'm up there at the counter and I'm starting to think, do I gotta go over there to pay? And I'm looking, and she comes running over, just got on these gray fucking leggings. Wow. And I said, I just need a can of cougar, and she turns around, she says, I'm not old enough to be a cougar, but I want to be. Wow, dude. Yeah. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I I do

SPEAKER_03

Ladies working at the quality dairy down the road, you just stay there. Yeah. Holy shit. Yeah. Yeah. Um, where was I going?

SPEAKER_01

Uh I don't know. It doesn't matter at this point, does it? Oh wow.

SPEAKER_03

Um shit, yeah. I don't remember. Oh. So I'm not standing there.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And before I caught on to all the scenery, I was looking at all the booze bottles they got.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Half gallon of Tito's. $41.94. Here? Yep. Okay. And I went, Whew. We were buying them for $26.95 down in Florida.

SPEAKER_01

Really?

SPEAKER_03

Yes. That's almost half price.

SPEAKER_01

So it's got to be something with the state regulations on the price.

SPEAKER_03

That's what I was told by this person in Florida.

SPEAKER_01

Because the state sets the price of the liquor. So I'm starting to question. Where's that money going?

SPEAKER_03

Why yeah. Why are we still here? Everything we pay for is more.

SPEAKER_01

Car insurance?

SPEAKER_03

Oh boy. Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Don't worry, it's not your fault.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Fuck too. It's somebody's fault.

SPEAKER_01

If you fucking run into me, it's your fault. Right. You're you should pay for it. Yeah. Fucking stupid motherfuckers. Yeah, when I lived in Florida, the insurance was a lot cheaper there than it is here.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and I imagine the goddamn registration and shit is too. Probably don't remember that from my.

SPEAKER_01

I don't remember that. But the registration here is a fucking the big greatest scam going through because it goes by the price of your vehicle, the MSRP of your vehicle, and not the weight of it.

SPEAKER_03

I went to get a new license plate the other day for whatever reasons. Don't need to be said. But uh I'm in there and she says, Oh, well, you're up for renewal in September. Do you want to do that now? And I said, You know what? I may as well. So instead of getting hammered on six vehicles in September, it'll only be five this year. Yeah. And she says, okay, that'll be $274. And I said, What? And she said, Well, it's $5 for the plate and your truck's $269. And I said, Oh, fuck that. That can wait till fucking September then. And then she goes into this big explanation about how it's not costing me anymore. It's still going to be $260, you know. Fuck you guys. This is ridiculous.

SPEAKER_01

Maybe the gas price will be back down to a normal spot at that time.

SPEAKER_03

And it should drop, too. The older the fucking vehicle gets, it should drop.

SPEAKER_01

But it's my pickup's like 320 or 50 bucks.

SPEAKER_03

Ridiculous, dude. Ridiculous.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and then so then you look at like these fucking uh Well, I don't know. I just gonna say you look at like the Tahoe's and stuff, well, they're not much different than your truck when you get down to the price. No, no. No. Corvette.

SPEAKER_01

But see, that's the that's the part that pisses me off, is okay, guys got himself Corvette. And we've talked about this before. Saves his money, buys a really nice Corvette. He's driving a few months out of the year here, but still has to pay three to fifty, four hundred dollars for a fucking plate renewal every year. He's not hurting the road, none.

SPEAKER_03

No, because he ain't ever on it.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_03

What is our bikes? Those are still under, those are like 30, 40 bucks, right?

SPEAKER_01

Well, I fuck, I just did mine because we had a birthday.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And uh it was 42, I think.

SPEAKER_03

Getting close to 50.

SPEAKER_01

50, 49?

SPEAKER_03

You get the you get the park pass? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I think doing the park pass it put me just over 50.

SPEAKER_03

That ain't bad though. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But I do the park pass because I I I want money to go to our parks. I want it places to go to. And if we're out on a bike ride and we say, hey, let's cruise over this park, then you're in. We can't. Whatever. It goes to what I think is a good cause, unless misappropriation of funds, which is everywhere in the state of fucking Michigan. That's why everything's so fucking expensive.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Well, you think all the camping people are gonna do this year if g the fucking gas and diesel don't come down.

SPEAKER_01

Campgrounds might be a little less full.

SPEAKER_03

You think? Because that happened. I don't know. That happened years ago when it spiked.

SPEAKER_01

Price of campers is gonna fucking drop. It's gonna happen.

SPEAKER_03

Which is good.

SPEAKER_01

Good, yes. Unless you're selling.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_01

But I'm not selling, so I don't.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Matter of fact, you decide to buy a new one, you go right on ahead and you just put that one out there in the campground for rental.

SPEAKER_01

Just it'll be your seasonal.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Kind is, anyway.

SPEAKER_03

We talked about that last week, seasonals.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I don't under okay, so some of these guys, like you get up, you know where Leisure Lake is, yeah up on Warner Road and shit. Yeah. These seasonals, I mean, they've got nicer decks built around a lot of them than most people have on their house. I know. They got fucking gazebos, they're paying for sod, they're paying for trees. Why don't you just go buy a fucking cottage?

SPEAKER_01

You know, I don't understand that because I would never be a seasonal camper.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

It doesn't intrigue me. In fact, I'd be okay if we got rid of our fucking camper and bought a cottage. Oh, yeah. And I didn't all I had to do was just fucking drive my truck to the cottage and relax. What I wouldn't actually mowing.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, well, you they still are here, too.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I don't know. I'd I really enjoy camping.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, Kelly'd never get off that goddamn lawnmower if you guys had a cottage.

SPEAKER_01

But I like watching her ride it. Not because it's a dominant thing, like I'm I like watching her ride it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Same reason I'm gonna be buying a candy bar at tailgators every day.

SPEAKER_01

Right, exactly.

SPEAKER_03

Um, would you rather like okay, so now you're getting a cottage. Are you gonna because like my grandpa and grandma, they bounced around a couple different spots and then they finally settled on uh Long Lake by Belding. Yeah. And I really liked that because it was 40 minutes from home. So you go up there on a Friday night, you're up there before it's too late. Now these people that are going to like Cadillac and Houghton, to me, that's now I gotta have a commitment. I want at least a three-day weekend if I'm going that far.

SPEAKER_01

Right. Yeah, I I get that. You know? Um I don't know. I I Where would you want to be? I don't know. Like I really truly would love to have a place in the UP.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, fuck yes.

SPEAKER_01

Because it's I love it up there.

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

In fact, I would I would consider living there full time. Except for every fucking winter that goes by anymore. Makes me think that's a bad idea. Makes it worse, don't it?

SPEAKER_03

Yes. Fuck, they're still closing the bridge up to you yesterday. I know, I saw that, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, falling ice.

SPEAKER_03

Fuck me.

SPEAKER_01

There's still a bunch of snow on the ground up there, I guess.

SPEAKER_03

Buddy of mine, John, shared a picture. He is up in Grand Maray. And yeah, they still got quite a bit of snow. It's fuck that. I mean. If it snowed tomorrow, I'd I'd probably honestly I'd probably cry a little bit.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I'll tell you what, Mother Nature needs to quit with the fucking mood swings.

SPEAKER_03

Get your shit straight.

SPEAKER_01

We we've had 70 degree days in the last week and a half. And then we have 30 degree fucking days. It just quit with the fucking cold. We're it's spring. Let's let's move forward. Let's have nice weather, let's have a good summer, let's have a nice Indian summer. Yes. A nice fall. Let's take a little break from the cold, because I'm done with it.

SPEAKER_03

I've driven through a lot of states, but I've never really paid attention because you're only in there for a short time.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_03

Are other states as up and down as we are? Well, I don't think so. Somebody tried telling me it's got something to do with the lakes.

SPEAKER_01

It does. It does. That has a big effect on weather. I mean, you gotta think lake effects snow. Right. We get that where Ohio doesn't. Yeah. Parts of Ohio will.

SPEAKER_03

Iowa obviously doesn't. Right. And they think they're Midwest.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. So I I think I think the lakes have a big thing to do with it. Which is a give and take because we have the Great Lakes, and that's pretty fucking cool.

SPEAKER_03

And we got them all except for Ontario, but nobody cares about that little fucker.

SPEAKER_01

Fuck Canada. You know, we still don't have one download from Canada.

SPEAKER_03

No, I know. I looked through that shit the other day and not any interest from them. Fuck you, Kenookers.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

You keep Mr. Dress up over there fucking.

SPEAKER_03

We should put a fucking wall up there. Easy. But I agree. Fuck y'all. Um I've always wanted to do that too. Is you know, you know how to get into Canada. You drive on the road, you stop, you say no handguns and no chickens, and they like, yeah. Well, I've always wanted to go to like, you know, somewhere in Minnesota, uh huh, Wisconsin, there's there's all that land somewhere there. I can just walk right into Canada.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah. You know? Yeah. I got a buddy of mine.

SPEAKER_03

Is anybody watching us? I I don't know. They do down south, but well, that's good reason.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, I got a buddy that lives in the Sioux. Oh, yep. And he's a big snowmobiler. He sneaks into Canada on a snowmobile all the time.

SPEAKER_02

Does he? Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Once it's frozen, now can you get in trouble? I think so.

SPEAKER_03

Say me and you go up there snowmobiling. Yep. Canada don't want me. They don't. They've made that clear. We're out sledding, get pulled over. You're in Canada. I how would I I didn't see the fucking sign.

SPEAKER_01

Remember when you crossed that fucking body of water that was frozen? There's your sign.

SPEAKER_03

And they own halfway, right? I think. Is that how it works?

SPEAKER_01

I would assume, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Huh.

SPEAKER_01

But yeah, he sneaks over to Canada all the time. No shit. And rides around there and then comes back. So yeah.

SPEAKER_03

It's possible then.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. And then you don't even have to go all the way over to one of them other states.

SPEAKER_03

We should load up the paddle boats this year.

SPEAKER_01

Paddle boat into Canada.

SPEAKER_03

That's right. No. Just have a beer and then come on back. Nope. I'll get you a life jacket.

SPEAKER_01

You better get me two.

SPEAKER_03

And I'll get you a rope too, a tie it around your waist so we don't lose you.

SPEAKER_01

Is there going to be a center block on the end of that rope?

SPEAKER_03

No, just my big ass. I can float.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but if your heart quits on you, we're both going.

SPEAKER_03

Isn't that gonna give you something to think about as you're going to the bottom of the sea like this motherfucker decides to stroke out right now? Yeah, what a dick.

SPEAKER_01

Selfish motherfucker. Chewing through the speaking of selfish, and you and being a motherfucker. Yep. You know, I've had so many things over the last week and a half that I've needed to contact you about.

SPEAKER_03

Should have called.

SPEAKER_01

I tried.

SPEAKER_03

I and before I leave, you're gonna go with you all my.

SPEAKER_01

We will go through the history because I've got I've got calls.

SPEAKER_03

I called one on Monday.

SPEAKER_01

I called, I wrote, I sent a fucking note down to Florida. I text. You sent it, you did? You sent a text? Yeah, I anything I could do to get a hold of you. And it was fucking crickets. Really?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. So now the only text I remember is when I said, Hey, happy birthday there, big guy. I got that one. Yeah. Yeah. And then I got a reply. And I replied, and then you replied, and then I just thought you were like, Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Well, yeah, because I figured that that was the only communication you were willing to have because I called you 14 times prior to that. I don't think you did. And uh, you know, one thing that I'm big on in a good, solid, secure relationship is communication.

SPEAKER_03

Goes both ways.

SPEAKER_01

It does.

SPEAKER_03

Should have sent me a letter.

SPEAKER_01

I did. I mailed one right to your home to your house.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I probably checked the mail tonight.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, it was to your house down there.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I'll go back down. You want to ride along? Can't afford to get tired of the shit, dude. Fucking the rest of this week's supposed to be warm. Mm-hmm. Yep. Then you look at the extended next week, it's back. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Uh no. I I only called a couple times, but you were on vacation.

SPEAKER_03

I swear to God. I I'm gonna look, but we'll we'll go through them.

SPEAKER_01

That's no big deal. Oh, we will. Nope, nope, nope, nope. No, nope, no big deal.

SPEAKER_03

All right, whatever, Trish.

SPEAKER_01

Um well, you know, and and and to be honest with you, it got me thinking.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And I understand why she gets so fucking irritated with you.

SPEAKER_03

She does too.

SPEAKER_01

I know, because you're a fucking prick. She's she said that. You are a one-way motherfucker. I bet she said that too. She does. Yeah. So you know what, Trisha? I'm sorry that your husband's a fucking dickhead.

SPEAKER_03

Um, however, if she just relaxed a little bit, she'd find out that I can do it two ways. So I mean, if you want to take that chair. Uh nope. I'll pass.

SPEAKER_01

Anyway. Did you guys spend any time down on the beach down there?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, we went, uh, we were gonna go to Cocoa, and the weather said it was all red flagged and they ain't letting people swim, so we went the other way to Clearwater. Was it Riptide? Yep. Okay. Yeah. Still remember the terms.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah now. You you've been to Cocoa.

SPEAKER_01

I've not.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay. You've been to Daytona. Oh, yeah. Just as fucking beautiful.

SPEAKER_01

Is it? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

It it cocoa's really it's it's awesome. You've been to Clearwater. Nope. Nope.

SPEAKER_01

Nope. I actually never spent any time on the Gulf side. The Gulf of America side. Don't waste your time. Really? Clearwater.

SPEAKER_03

Number one, beach in America. Uh-huh. Oh, it's the sand is nice, yes. The water's nice, yes. But the problem is, is when you put something out there like that, number one beach, all these motherfuckers want to be there. Right. Put a fucking bullet in my head, bud. Cool. There, that place was just crawling with people. It it's it's to the point where it's not enjoyable. Now, maybe on a week that's not a spring break. Well, maybe it's a week.

SPEAKER_01

You did go at the busiest time.

SPEAKER_03

Is it really that much busier though? It is.

SPEAKER_01

Is it so when I was down there, I worked for the Budweiser distributor. Yep. And I my area was Daytona Beach. There is a huge influx in people in business. Where Daytona has a big spring break.

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

And then there's a college in Dayton that also does their own type of big spring break down there.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, really?

SPEAKER_01

A different time. And then you have bike week, and you have bike Toberfest, and you have two NASCAR race weeks down there.

SPEAKER_03

So So you do see the spikes.

SPEAKER_01

There was every every time there was an event, it was it was huge spikes.

SPEAKER_03

No, I'll tell you, whoever came up with the calendar on that, you got bike week? Yep. NASCAR week, spring week. All fucking smudged in a five-week area.

SPEAKER_01

Not even. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That's smart. It really is. Yeah. Because boy, that's just money.

SPEAKER_01

A boatload of it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. And uh there was there was I think there was another event that brought in a lot of people. I don't remember what it was, but just between those. I mean, it was it was huge.

SPEAKER_03

It was so there is a okay. Because I always just want thought, yeah, it's Florida. People are down here all the time.

SPEAKER_01

No, I mean it's it's generally busy anyway, but it you notice you notice the difference.

SPEAKER_03

So like I should give Clearwater another shot on a off a regular week. You'd be I bet you'd be surprised. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

And I I can't speak for sure on it because I'd never been there. Right. But from my experience down there in Daytona, yes, it's it's huge.

SPEAKER_03

We've only got two more years of spring breaking, then Lexi's out, and then we can go anytime we want. Right. You know, gonna be a lot different.

SPEAKER_01

But I will tell you, you would well, you'll understand it because it's us, but the best one of them big weeks down there, as far as trying to get around in the fucking god-awful bumper-to-bumper traffic and all that, is I I had a keg route down there, so that's all I did was draft beer and my trailer was lettered up, Budweiser.

SPEAKER_03

So I bet you got a lot of attention.

SPEAKER_01

I did. If I'm on ISB, which is International Speedway Boulevard that runs right through Daytona, if I'm on ISB and it's bumper to bumper during any one of them weeks, you don't know what the easiest week was to uh to be able to navigate from one side to the other and get around and get pulled up? Absolutely. Yeah, yep. The bikers were the best. And I'm not just saying that because I'm biased, because I'm I'm a ra I grew up racing to whatever and spring break, I like to have fun. So it's not about that. The if you needed to get over, change lanes, because it's like five lanes wide. If you need to get over, you hit that blinker or turn signal, and I'm telling you right now, them bikes would just back right off, they'd motion you over, you'd whip over, you'd get going, and and they'd wave at you because you were bringing the goods. Yep. And they they loved it.

SPEAKER_03

Bringing what you want, what they want.

SPEAKER_01

Now, if I had Miller on that trailer, they'd probably fucking never let me over. Fucking. I'd wave you over than get hit. Yeah. Exactly. But when you're the king of beers, you get to act like a king. You goddamn right.

SPEAKER_03

You know, but on the biker thing, though, I mean, everywhere we've I've I've ever gone where it's a bike-involved thing, they're just different people. They're nicer.

SPEAKER_01

For the most part, they don't portray the image that a lot of people have on them.

SPEAKER_03

No, because those guys are too busy wearing a patch.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_03

And I've got some friends that are in clubs, but you know, I don't need to go suck your balls so I can have a friend.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_03

Drives me insane.

SPEAKER_01

You've never sucked my balls and we're pretty good friends.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, fuck no.

SPEAKER_01

But if you wanted to, well, I'd still tell you no.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know. I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

Um speaking of bikes and riding. We're doing one on June 6th. June 6th. Yep. Um, Zomers are putting together some stuff for that. Dude, did you see that?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, the video of the I didn't know that's how they did it. I had no idea. Actually, we talked about that at work today. That we didn't realize that's how those were made. I thought they were like well, I think you can get them screen printed too. What is this? That I wouldn't say that's screen print, because screen print actually is a screen and then you can see it. And you swipe the ink across it. So I don't know. But they look pretty fucking cool. It's pretty neat. And and with the help of the Zelmers.

SPEAKER_02

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

That was the biggest order that company has ever had.

SPEAKER_03

Yes, it was.

SPEAKER_01

Which is pretty fucking sweet. It is.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Yeah. So I hope they save one and pin it to their wall like people do with the first dollar they make. Right, right. Biggest order. Bam.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Make one extra for yourself. That's right.

SPEAKER_03

That was pretty that I that was a neat video. I'm glad Christy shared that. Otherwise we never would have seen it.

SPEAKER_01

Right. And a little fun fact, is the lady that that they did the business with there on that is Julie's aunt.

SPEAKER_02

Oh no shit. Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Yep. Dexter sent us a group text that said small world alert, sent the video to the chat and said, that's Julie's aunt. Oh, what the fuck? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That is a small world. Yeah. We wrote on the It's a Small World. And when you're going around that ride. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, okay. I've never been.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, dude. It's like I think seven minutes long. It feels like 110 because that song just keeps repeating. Boy, you wish the world was a lot smaller.

SPEAKER_01

Where's Mayor Black? Oh fuck.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. That's funny. That's a term that never faded away. Everybody still uses it. I know my grandma's probably used. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. But it's crazy to think of how many people there are in this world and how many connections there are. What do they say?

SPEAKER_03

It's like seven seven steps away.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Of of something like that.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, something like that. Yeah. They used to do that with Kevin Bacon a lot.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. So I know you guys go to well, you don't go to Florida every year for spring break, right? Oh yeah. Is it Florida every year? Every yeah. I thought it was I thought maybe it was Myrtle Beach or something.

SPEAKER_03

Well, we went to Gatlinburg one year, uh COVID year.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Because Florida closed. So I spent a lot of time in Florida. Well, almost four years. Right. Living there.

SPEAKER_01

I'm obviously from Michigan. In the country. Wow. Um I don't know if you experienced it over on that side of the state. Like I said, I never spent no time there. But I how how how do you feel about the people there that live that like the that live there?

SPEAKER_03

Well, I'll tell you what. My biggest fucking problem with Florida is no matter where you go, the traffic's insane, right? Yep. Now, when I see a Florida plate being a dumb fuck, it really pisses me off.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Because, motherfucker, you're from here. You should not. Why have you not found a different way around? For one. For two, what the fuck are you doing here? Get the fuck out. Florida people, and I think a lot of it is when you drive into Florida, it says, Welcome to the nation's capital of fucking dementia. It's because of all the old fucks that go down there. I mean, catch catch up with the times and go to fucking Arizona, old people.

SPEAKER_01

It should say, Welcome to the nation's capital of dementia slash melting pot.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Because you know how many fucking New Yorkers and New Jersey people move there? And they're the most arrogant, fucking rude motherfuckers you'll ever meet in your life. They are. So everybody says, God, you lived in Florida, why would you ever come back here? And my number one thing that I always say is I hate the fucking people there. Because almost everybody in Florida is from somewhere else.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And they come there and they think they're better than everybody.

SPEAKER_03

They do.

SPEAKER_01

And they're a bunch of rude motherfuckers.

SPEAKER_03

If you're gonna pick out rude people, you nailed it with New Jersey. That is the worst group of fucking people. Yeah. Can you do their voice? I can't even do their voice. No. Man.

SPEAKER_01

But there are some good ones that come from there. Oh, I think. I had a buddy that I worked with down there, and he was from New York. Not same thing. As far as I'm concerned, they're the same fucking thing. And uh he he always called me by my name Robert, and uh he'd say, Robert. And I'm like, motherfucker, Ed, my name's Bob. It ain't Robert. It ain't Robert. Motherfucker, you ain't a frog, Robot, Robert. But he was an older guy, he was an old guy. He was cool as shit. You know what that motherfucker told me one time?

SPEAKER_03

You know I like to know these things.

SPEAKER_01

I know you it's probably not appropriate. Um he I've been known to uh dip my wick in less desirable women.

SPEAKER_03

You're not gonna have to convince me because I have no doubt.

SPEAKER_01

You know, I was I was always along the lines. I was always along the lines if you lower your average, or if you lower your standards, you'll raise your average. Yeah. Which is true. Which is good. I mean he he told me, he says, Rob it.

SPEAKER_03

The ball you don't hit is the one you don't swing at.

SPEAKER_01

Damn right. He'd say, Rob it. You'd fuck a snake if someone would hold its head. That stuck with me forever. God rest his soul. And he's he's passed away now, but he me and I were tight. We were buds. Oh fuck. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Speaking of dead people, my wife's aunt died. Um wanna say sorry for all that. It was a horrible accident. Um, and uh you'll meet her daughter, that's Megan, that we're gonna go see at Swannee's.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

So you'll meet her down the road, but that that's unfortunate that that happens.

SPEAKER_01

Sorry for the loss.

SPEAKER_03

You know, and so you got me thinking again, you know, fuck cousin died earlier this year. Now my wife's aunt, Ricky does. It got me thinking.

SPEAKER_01

You ain't much fun since I quit drinking. There's a lot of shit we're gonna miss.

SPEAKER_03

If you don't that's why I I think me and you get along so well since the start, is you wanna do that? Yeah, let's do that. Yeah, it's never been uh, well, I don't know if we got the money, I don't know if we got the time. Cause you're kind of on the same page as I am where let's do it now.

SPEAKER_01

While you can enjoy it, next year I might not be able to. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You know, and I wish more people would be like that because I think this fucking world would be a lot more fun.

SPEAKER_01

Happier.

SPEAKER_03

Yes. Yep. I know a lot of people uh every year at spring break people give me shit. I can't believe you spend that money to go down there. I can't believe you sit in your fucking house 365 days a year festering about what everybody else is doing. Get out there and try something.

SPEAKER_01

You miserable fuck. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

I'm good at being miserable.

SPEAKER_01

Well, fuck yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But I mean, people gotta just loosen it up and you know what are you gonna do with all that money when you're 80?

SPEAKER_01

You can't take it with you?

SPEAKER_03

No. No, and if your kids ain't figured it out by the time you're eighty, oh fucking well.

SPEAKER_01

You ever seen a hearse with a trailer hitch? No. Because you can't take it fucking with you. You goddamn right. Yeah. Get out and live and enjoy life.

SPEAKER_03

Be a hell out happier people.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Generally.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You know.

SPEAKER_01

Maybe you wouldn't have a fucking wad of panties up your ass so much.

SPEAKER_03

I had to laugh too last week. Uh called Ryan and Sarah, and I says, Hey, I said, when you guys are coming back, you grab me a half gallon of Tito's for him to run out.

SPEAKER_01

Half the fucking price.

SPEAKER_03

We'll do. Thank you. And he gets there and he kinda had to laugh because he thought that I just finished up what we had the night before. And he says, Holy fuck, where'd that one come from? I said, I picked that up this morning, and it was about empty. We had an odd booze. And I tell you what, Bob, I like my beer. I do.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I really like uh Trish came up with this Kool-Aid thing with Tito's. It's Tito's, great Kool-Aid, powder, and then lemonade and Sprite. You put it all together however you want.

SPEAKER_01

Very fucking good. Sounds refreshing.

SPEAKER_03

Problem. I like this because we can go out, and I know how many of these I can have and still be okay to drive.

SPEAKER_01

You don't have a chart for that yet.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And I don't know how you go about getting that without I don't want it. I've been made it this far without drunk driving. I want to continue that streak.

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_03

But I sure would love to when we go out, just sit down and have me a mixy. Problem is, I don't stop at one minute. I drink 'em like you're drinking a beer.

SPEAKER_01

I got into a little mixy on Saturday.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, how'd that treat you? Heard you're a karaoke and all over Facebook. No, it's not. It should be. Yeah, I don't know that anybody got a video. Julia Dexter, if you took a video, send it my way. Don't think they did. I can't believe they wouldn't.

SPEAKER_01

Dexter sang. Karaoke, yeah. Little TNT. Really? That motherfucker was dynamite. You know what I was picturing?

SPEAKER_03

Well, I see trees of green. Red roses, too. Huh. He took on the ACDC. Went totally the other way.

SPEAKER_01

As soon as he went up there and sang it, I'm like. Sound pretty good? He was fucking good. He was great. Was he? Yes. Yeah. I'll give all the credit in the world. He did a good job.

SPEAKER_03

I do like when you're at karaoke and you get the good singer. Yeah. I it's enjoyable.

SPEAKER_01

Actually, I really I like that a lot.

SPEAKER_03

A lot of the fun though is the people that are just like, whoa, what are you doing up there?

SPEAKER_01

That's me. I'm that guy. Yeah. Like I have no business with a microphone in front of my face for a podcast. For singing. For announcing. I I I yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But it do you do what I do though when you're karaoke in? Up here, it sounds really good.

SPEAKER_01

Well, fuck yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Especially after a bunch of booze.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But so we did a uh Saturday, we did a little birthday bar crawl. A little mini bar crawl, if you will. Because Julie's birthday was yesterday. So happy birthday, Julie.

SPEAKER_03

Happy birthday, Julie. Um even though you hate my voice, I hope you heard the happy birthday.

SPEAKER_01

And mine was last week.

SPEAKER_03

So Wednesday.

SPEAKER_01

Yes. Mine was Wednesday, hers was Tuesday.

SPEAKER_03

Um Saturday's right in the middle.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so we decided we were gonna do a little birthday celebration to both of us.

SPEAKER_03

Um how many bars did you knock out before you were singing?

SPEAKER_01

Well, I sang at the last one. So we had country club. We went we started the country club.

SPEAKER_03

What got you into the country club? Are they members?

SPEAKER_01

Uh no, they're not, but our friend Keith is.

SPEAKER_03

And he got you in there?

SPEAKER_01

And he invited us out to come to the country club, which if we could get 66 cents a day.

SPEAKER_03

We could be members.

SPEAKER_01

We could be members.

SPEAKER_03

Is that enough?

SPEAKER_01

Well, if enough people do it.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, 10,000 of you guys.

SPEAKER_01

Um so went to the country club, had a couple drinks, left there, went to a downtown Lansing bar called Arts, which I know you're familiar with. Uh they bought you get a burger while you were there? No. Pizza? I had a slice of pizza. All right. Because they have slices to ready to go. Do they really? Yep. I had a slice of pizza. And then um Kelly and I shared uh I can't remember what the name of the fries are, but they do these exotic fries where like it's got barbecue pork and fries and all whatever kind of fixes.

SPEAKER_03

You guys share a lot of shit when you go out? We don't. No.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, but we did that day. Sir Saturday we did. So we did shared that, and then um, you know, their big, big draft beers are called Shoopers. Yeah, because they're big.

SPEAKER_03

They're like that fucking pretzel jar. They are. Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_01

So we left there, then we went downtown um to the nut house, which is a bar named after our minor league baseball team.

SPEAKER_03

Still in the same place on the corner?

SPEAKER_01

Yep, right on the corner. Uh the Lancing Lug Nuts, it's the Nut House, capitalized on the name there. And then uh from there we went to the B I, which by God, if it if you've never been to the B I you're missing out. It if you can picture the most dive dive bar there is, the B I is the best damn dive bar. It even says it on their sign there. The dive the best damn dive bar around. They they've got that on lockdown. Beer's always cold, food's pretty good. Um, so this looks better than this. Well, no, I mean it depends on the day. Um, so then we went to the B and I, which we all call it the bullshit and incest. I could go with that. I don't know what it really stands for, but it's fitting. And uh left there and went to uh a little small town bar called Nico's and uh ended it at Nico's, and that's we met up with some other people that were there, and yeah, it was a good time.

SPEAKER_03

That's when you turned into fucking Lenny Kravitz and just sang your heart out.

SPEAKER_01

That's right. Actually, I sang Luke I sang Luke Combs. Fast car.

SPEAKER_03

Why didn't you uh do the Tracy Chapman version? You probably would have been better at that.

SPEAKER_01

You got a softer voice, though. I don't like that one much, but as far as I was concerned, I had a pretty fucking fast car. And I was ready to sing.

SPEAKER_03

You were one and done on the songs?

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah. Really? No, no, no, I take that back. Uh Dexter and I at I did I did my song, he did his song, and then we did a duo.

SPEAKER_03

I got you, babe?

SPEAKER_01

No. Uh it was that Grease Lightning song.

SPEAKER_02

Um, um I can't think of what it was. I do know what you're talking about. I was too drunk. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Uh if you say it, I'll remember it.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, fuck.

SPEAKER_01

But uh yeah. It was a song from Grease Lightning.

SPEAKER_03

Did it sound good? Probably not. Ah, it couldn't have. His part did, probably.

SPEAKER_01

It could not have sounded good at all. It had to be terrible.

SPEAKER_03

You ever seen him shit face drunk?

SPEAKER_01

Not obvious, but I've seen him pretty drunk.

SPEAKER_03

He always takes pretty good care of.

SPEAKER_01

He's got he's got good composure. He does. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Sometimes I wish I was that way.

SPEAKER_01

Me too.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I tend to get loud. Really? Yeah. Never noticed, have you?

SPEAKER_01

Nope. But what I can tell you is I do not I remember being there at that last bar. I remember everything up to through the day, night. I don't remember walking out of the bar. I remember standing there. I do not remember walking out of the bar. Now we had rode with Dexter and Julie, and I don't remember getting in the Tesla, and I don't remember riding to their house. We went in their house and hung out in their house, and I do not remember any of that.

SPEAKER_03

Isn't that awesome though? That you you're able to somehow do that. I don't know that that's awesome. Well, it's kind of neat. It's interesting, but not awesome. Okay, I'd say interesting.

SPEAKER_01

And then I don't remember the ride home from their house to our house. So part of that is where I guess where this stemmed from is you're talking about mixies. So when we got to the nut house, they had a Spartan Long Island. And it was ecto cooler green. And it was extremely sweet. Nobody liked it.

SPEAKER_03

From all the green dyed.

SPEAKER_01

Nobody ever with the whole table ordered them because we thought, oh yeah, let's do that. Nobody liked it. I probably liked it more than anybody else did, and I'm slurping, slurping it down. Everybody kept drinking a little bit down, put some water in it. Drink a little bit down, put some water in it. Trying to dilute it a little bit. It was pretty sweet. Was it? I mean, it was real sweet. So I just figured I was gonna hurt up and power through it, so I slurped it right down. No water in mine because I ain't no bitch.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

And uh that way I could get to a bushlight faster. That was my thought.

SPEAKER_03

Get through them.

SPEAKER_01

And so I get mine all the way down to there's only about that much left in my cup. Untainted with water. Well, I turned my head and I come back over, and Julie's right across from me. I had a full one next to me. Huh. I caught her doing it. She wanted to hurry up and get down so she could order a new drink. So she took my hand, my mostly empty one, and gave me one that was still uh actually three quarters of the real drink.

SPEAKER_03

And you drank that though, didn't you? You goddamn right I did. I ain't no pussy. That's part of why this disappears.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. So I drank basically one and a half of them. Long islands. Then I started pounding the bushlight again. Well, you know how it is when I start mixing the two.

SPEAKER_03

It's a recipe.

SPEAKER_01

I can't remember the rest of the time.

SPEAKER_03

No, that's only happened to me a handful of times in my life. Last time was when the kids took me out to the bars a couple years ago in Florida, and we're at one of the bars and it's windy. And they I said, Hey, can you put down those blinds? And he says, Yep. So he pushes the button and I watch the blinds go, go, go. Brad don't remember nothing now.

SPEAKER_01

He was like you were hypnotized.

SPEAKER_03

I should have had them reopen them because what I guess I was fun though, which is odd.

SPEAKER_01

That was the night you there's a video of you floating around in the hotel room, isn't it?

unknown

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

Yep, dancing around.

SPEAKER_01

It'd be a shame if uh boy if we could post your videos on social media.

SPEAKER_03

But since I don't have access to the social medias, um Leisha or Ella, one of you two, has that video of me dancing a couple years ago in Florida. Send that my way. So I don't have to one look for it, and two, I will share that. You're gonna wish you had moves like that.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I saw the video and I was quite impressed. But you know, it's it's just one of them things that the world that follows Bob and Brad. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And it used to be a big thing.

SPEAKER_01

They only see well, it is the world. It's worldwide. Well, they only see the vulnerable sides of me because you're in control of the video stuff.

SPEAKER_03

How about that Easter picture though?

SPEAKER_01

I loved it. That was fucking awesome. I'm glad I wasn't Jesus. Really?

SPEAKER_03

Because that's no, I am so glad. I was gonna make you Jesus when I saw that. I I I entered flip-flop.

SPEAKER_01

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03

And then I said, ah, to hell, I ain't got time.

SPEAKER_01

No, I was much happier being the Easter bunny than Jesus.

SPEAKER_03

Oh boy.

SPEAKER_01

Because you're going to hell. I'm not. Well, not because of that picture.

SPEAKER_03

I said, I'll see you there.

SPEAKER_01

I do know the Wi-Fi password if you if you get there before me. Um, I saw that that was actually really good. Oh. But uh, you know, so that actually is something I was thinking about the other day. Because could we take a commercial break? No. Really? No. Why? What do you need? I gotta pee. Well, go ahead, I'll talk while you're peeing. Anyway, and you're not gonna want to hear this anyway until you listen to the episode. Uh, you know, I get uh I get where Donald Trump is upset with the media and the shit that they put out there and twist what he says and change up what he says because anybody that follows along and has listened, they have seen where I have been targeted with your video editing skills. And you know, like the when I did make one little mistake and say I said 130, not 120, and you know, you you just took that and you just abused the hell out of me with that video. That was so so like I totally understand where Donald Trump is is irritated with the fake news and the shitty media outlets because the people that are in charge of the media are dictators and can control the people however they want. The best part of that video is tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. So I said 120. Your problem is that you don't fucking listen. I was in the wrong one time. Holy shit, burned me at the cross. Uh, there was another one. Never, yes.

SPEAKER_03

And what was that? Never I I can't remember, but I put that video out there too.

SPEAKER_01

It was about the foot race. Yes, it was.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I know what it was. Oh my god, talk about you should move back to Daytona, the state of the dementia.

SPEAKER_02

Oh fuck.

SPEAKER_03

What I laughed. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

How was the bikinis in Florida?

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yeah. Really? Um, dude. One out of one out of 19 to 20. You got P now? Yeah. I understand that. But one out of nineteen to twenty people should be wearing the swimwear that they select. When we're in clear water, there was this chick. It looked like she was wearing a ball of fucking yarn. And she was as white as a paper towel roll, and she was about as shapely as a paper towel roll. A thick, wet paper towel roll. She she had no business wearing what she was wearing. And what really bothers me the most, like this this particular two-week stretch, is it's the high school spring breaks. So 90% of them girls should not be wearing the swimwear that they selected, anyways, because they're too fucking young. And I get all tore up on the inside too. Is holy shit, would you look at that? Put together like a wow. Wait a minute, you disgusting old fuck. Because you don't know. She could be 18 or 80. Right. You don't know. And that's why I think every girl, I've got four of them, and I will stand by this. Right here on the back of their nah, they got long hair. We're gonna have to put it somewhere visible. Birth year. Tattooed a birth year somewhere on them, so you know.

SPEAKER_01

So back to the paper towel roll. Yo, she was she old or was she a high schooler?

SPEAKER_03

She I feel bad saying it about her because she was a high schooler, obviously. She's there with her parents. Right. She's out there sprinkling water on her dad and stuff, and her dad's like Oh yeah, baby. I think they were from Alabama. So he was more like, oh yeah, baby. Yeah. Yeah, your mama never looked that good in there. No, but you do. But it had strings here and strings here. It was more string than any. Come on, girl.

SPEAKER_01

So okay.

SPEAKER_03

I'm going to disagree with you. Trish comes out of the fucking bathroom and says, How do I look? And let's say it was something that I picked out that I really wanted. And she came out and I looked at it. Like, damn.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_03

If it looked bad, I'm going to tell you it looks bad. Because I don't want to be out there walking down the town with you looking like. You know what I mean? That's a double-edged sword. It is.

SPEAKER_01

You know what I mean, though? I do. But you know what? I'm going to side with the girl on the ball of yarn that looks like a roll of paper towel.

SPEAKER_03

A wet roll of paper towel. Dipped in syrup.

SPEAKER_01

Sticky icky icky. I mean, good for her having the confidence to wear that. Because we need less people beating people down. We do. We need more people building each other up. And that's the difference between you and me. You're a fucking beater, and I'm an uplifter. And, you know, good for her. And yeah, she's got pale skin. She probably lives somewhere in the north where there's not a lot of skin. You're being a fucking dick.

SPEAKER_03

No, it was an ensemble.

SPEAKER_01

What I like to do in people is I like to find something beautiful inside everybody. You like to find something ugly and fucking use it to fucking just whip them. Just bam.

SPEAKER_03

Difference between us is I will bam, bam, beat you away. You who likes to find something beautiful inside will try everybody's insides.

SPEAKER_01

That is the difference between us. Well, now that you put it like that, that doesn't sound very good. Well, it sounds a little different, doesn't it? But there you go. Beating me down for trying to uplift people. There we go. That's exactly what I was saying, folks. This motherfucker is an abuser and a user. Can you uplift half the women you've done in your life? With a crane.

SPEAKER_04

Wow.

SPEAKER_01

Oh.

SPEAKER_03

You know uh there's other things on my list I want to talk about. You keep uplifting and I'll keep beating, and we'll meet in the middle. Wow. And that would be kind of fun too. I've always thought about that. If I was gonna meet uh somebody in the middle and there is a chick between us, I hope it's you on the other end. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you know, uh if it's uh nothing like seeing a familiar face over there.

SPEAKER_01

That's called a bucksaw. Um and if she's a Portly woman.

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Not Portland, because fuck them, but Portly woman. And we arm wrestled on her back, yeah. That would be called an Alabama hog roast.

SPEAKER_03

Is that oh shit. What was that the other day? Oh my god, I wish I could remember. Maybe you'll know. Uh it says blah, blah, blah. It's when a guy is doing a woman in the ass. POV. And then puts his hand in her vagina and jerks himself off. Oh. Did you see that? It was going around on Facebook.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I saw that. I don't remember what it was called.

SPEAKER_03

It's fucked off.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know if I could do that.

SPEAKER_03

Talk about being full.

SPEAKER_01

Uh, you know what?

unknown

Fuck.

SPEAKER_01

I can't get that vision out of my head. I just fist you real quick and grab a hold of my cock. I mean, what the fuck?

SPEAKER_03

You know, I've been about grabbing the throat and jerking it off a little bit. I guess I can feel it. But never the other way.

SPEAKER_01

Well, what what does coochie and tater salad have in common?

SPEAKER_03

What?

SPEAKER_01

You can't eat just anybody's. Which is true.

SPEAKER_03

Should have got that off the picnic table a couple hours ago, honey.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's a little ripe.

SPEAKER_03

Oh fucking eh. They both taste good if they're taken care of.

SPEAKER_01

Well, made properly. Right.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, fuck me. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, you know, we we took a week off because your fucking frivolous vacations that you take. Um did we get any email stuff or were you too busy to check them?

SPEAKER_03

No, we haven't. I've been getting a lot of Instagram updates. Okay. Um one thing from TikTok just saying that we're still being looked into.

SPEAKER_01

That's funny because I haven't seen a new TikTok produced in, I don't know, three weeks, four weeks. Yeah. Yeah. So what's up with that? Well, I've been you want to control the fucking videos.

SPEAKER_03

I've been holding off because they keep saying that they won't allow my shit. And uh may I'll throw a couple together tomorrow and put them on there and just see what happens.

SPEAKER_02

See what happens. Fucking fuck.

SPEAKER_03

It's been 22 days at least. Frustrating.

SPEAKER_01

Um because we're impersonating somebody.

SPEAKER_03

We ain't impersonating nobody.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know who the fuck we would be. Ain't nobody like us.

SPEAKER_03

Thanks to uh Ryan.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I will be impersonating John Holmes for the next five to seven days.

SPEAKER_01

Appreciate it, Ryan. Do not take four of them this time.

SPEAKER_03

It's one and done.

SPEAKER_01

You can take two. Those are low dose. You can take two.

SPEAKER_03

Well, we're gonna do one and just see what happens.

SPEAKER_01

He said take two.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Well, but take two. If you read the bottle, it says one to two hours beforehand, I believe. Oh wow. Your old eyes probably can't read those. No, they can't. But I'll read it when I get my glasses.

SPEAKER_03

Yep. Problem is, is her mood is so moody. Like at four o'clock on a Sunday afternoon, I might be like, oh fuck yeah, I'm gonna get some at six.

SPEAKER_01

By 4.05, it's fucking game over.

SPEAKER_03

I already swallowed a pill. What the fuck am I supposed to do? Go purge myself. Any idea? I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

But I was just it it just triggered in my brain, you got excited. No, no, not the Alabama Hoggros. You got excited. Yeah. And I remember your one thing you really wanted to do was get your picture with Chip and Dale.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yep. Chip did it for me. Fuck Dale. Dale go fuck himself. That motherfucker. We get there. First thing we do when we get through the goddamn gates of fucking Disney World, the goddamn magic kingdom. Where are them little fucking tree rats? Oh, there they are.

SPEAKER_01

Woo-hoo! You found them right off the bat. Right away. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Go heading over there, and they're running around. So I asked their handler, because they all walk around with security, basically. Right. And I said, hey, a picture of Chippendale. Good luck. They don't like to stand still.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, motherfucker, I just paid a fucking mint to get in this place. They can stand still for a minute.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I'm paying their wages.

SPEAKER_03

And so they scurry off. My whole day was ruined, and you can ask anybody that was at the park with us.

SPEAKER_01

I can tell by the Facebook post.

SPEAKER_03

It was just like, fuck this fucking. Where's Walt Disney? I want to go kick him right in the fucking head. Fuck this fucking place. I was so pissed. Then we get off the Tron ride and we're walking out, and one of the kids texts me and said, Chip and Dale are here and they're taking pictures. So you ran over there. Hold them still. Yeah. I get down there. And then yeah, fucking Dale's scurrying like a fucking rabid fucking piece of shit. Chip's over there with some little kids. That was my time. Yeah. So I grabbed them, squeezed them hard. Tell winter was just through because he's a little bony. But I got my goddamn pitcher with him. My problem with the pitcher is I didn't get a chance to get my hat on right. I just got off rock. Because you were running over there to get to him. So the pitcher's not great, but fuck yeah, Chip. I'll do anything for him. He ever gets stuck in a tree, got a squirrel up his ass, I'll get rid of that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Dale? Oh fuck you just as soon as kick him right out of the tree. But you're a goddamn Disney motherfucker. Everybody, I don't care if you're fucking two years old or if you're 102 years old. We all paid the same fucking price to get in here. No, they paid a senior citizen discount. You're probably right. They probably paid less, fuckers. And you stand your people still so we can get a picture.

SPEAKER_01

Right. It's fine acting the part to run it around. But when some when business is business.

SPEAKER_03

I will tell you.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

The princesses, they ain't shy to the Disney buffet.

SPEAKER_01

Oh. Portley fellows.

SPEAKER_03

They are getting big. Which is fine. I'm not fucking beating anybody down because they still look like you are, but that's why you find the beauty in their smile instead of the fucking. They all look pretty fucking hot, except for Ariel, who looks like a transvestite. And I'll show you a picture later. Boy, is that transi.

SPEAKER_01

And then you had uh It's because it's Disney. Moana trying to groom your children. I can't believe you can take your kids there.

SPEAKER_03

That was fun. It was fun. Then we got to watch the rocket go off, too. Yeah, I saw the video you sent that. Shit video because the goddamn cloud was in the sky.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But speaking of that, what are we doing up there?

SPEAKER_01

Finish your Disney story. I want to talk about that.

SPEAKER_03

Well, that's where I'm going here. Is what are we doing up there? So we travel around the moon and then we're coming back. China's gonna send one up by the end of the week, and they're gonna land on the moon. They want to be the first ones really on the moon.

SPEAKER_01

Because in 1969 we did not. We did 100 for fucking percent. No. We did not land on the moon.

SPEAKER_03

So why don't we do it right fucking now?

SPEAKER_01

Elon needs to fucking pull his big old dong out and say this is how it's gonna go.

SPEAKER_03

God damn right. Because we just went around the motherfucker. We should be landing on it.

SPEAKER_01

Let me uh go. Let me ask you this. Yeah. Because this is where I was gonna go with it. And I just saw it before shitters broke. Well, I was finishing up at work and I was stomping on Facebook and a buddy of mine posted it. And he says, Does anybody think that this Artemis is that called Artemis 2?

SPEAKER_02

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Is a hundred percent real or is some of it AI generation?

SPEAKER_03

90% of it's AI because that rocket could not have a camera on the outside and go 18,000 miles an hour. Exactly. Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Did you see the Nutella floating around in the fucking capsule?

SPEAKER_03

Yes, I did, because Nutella fucking gave them fucking a hundred grand.

SPEAKER_01

Did you see how slowed down that image was because it was fucking catapulted out of a fucking slingshot? Because it's fucking fake. I'm telling you right now, they're not going around the fucking moon right now. There's nobody in that motherfucker. Yes, they launched something off, but there was not a single fucking soul inside that fucking Artemis. I don't give a fuck.

SPEAKER_03

If we were up there where there's no gravity, okay. Follow me here.

SPEAKER_01

I'm following.

SPEAKER_03

And there's no gravity, so you're up there and you're standing at the toilet and you say, fuck yeah, I'm gonna pull one off. It's gonna end up in your face. That boosh, just the propulsion, is enough in space to push you back about five feet.

SPEAKER_01

Really?

SPEAKER_03

That's what they say.

SPEAKER_01

And I learned that because Boy, I'd be getting bounced off the fucking wall. You imagine bong!

SPEAKER_03

Bobby, put it away! BONG! I mean, you could be your own little jet. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I'd knock it out of orbit.

SPEAKER_03

Wouldn't that be something? But but they say that that thing, he gets whipped around the moon, and as he's coming back, all it takes to get back into our atmosphere is a of gas of gas. Done. So you know that shit comes out 20 miles an hour. But I don't think anybody's up there.

SPEAKER_01

No.

SPEAKER_03

No, I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

There was not a single soul.

SPEAKER_03

We may have taken off, but we didn't go.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. So that puts it into further questioning, because one, and I don't care what anybody says, if you're a if you're a critical thinker or have any fucking common sense, you don't believe that the moon landing happened in 69. No. Did not happen. It could not have happened. Not happening. Not the way that it was led to the people. Right. So now you got was it Apollo 11 that blew up?

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Challenger.

SPEAKER_01

Or Challenger, I'm sorry. Yeah. Challenger.

SPEAKER_03

You know what color Krista McCallov's eyes were? She is one of the NASA people. I do not. Blue. Yeah. No, this is when you say, how do you know that? How do you know that? Because one blew this way, one blew that way. But up. Shh.

SPEAKER_01

I like it. Um so that blew up. Yep. We knew we could not actually honestly send anybody to the moon.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, no fucking way.

SPEAKER_01

Do you think that they were actually in that when it blew up?

SPEAKER_03

At that time, period? I'm guessing yes.

SPEAKER_01

I don't think so.

SPEAKER_03

Because we all thought we were unbeatable. We didn't do anything. I don't know. I know where you're going with this, and I could decide on that side too.

SPEAKER_01

Look into that rabbit hole.

SPEAKER_03

You know?

SPEAKER_01

Just just look into it. You might find some things that catch your attention. You might think it's full of shit. I went down that rabbit hole a while back. I don't know. I think I don't know why there would be a reason to doubt it. Off those people. Off right. Like they're not really dead.

SPEAKER_03

I mean they might be not dead.

SPEAKER_01

Right. Right. So I don't know that they that any of those people had any reason to not be around any longer.

SPEAKER_03

Who's the guy that had the island? What's his name? Epstein. I don't believe he's dead either.

SPEAKER_01

I believe he's a wholly alive, a hundred percent well.

SPEAKER_03

He's in another country.

SPEAKER_01

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

Living the good life.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Because he was a fucking spy for Iran.

SPEAKER_03

I tellin you. Yep. And you get into this stuff, and people think you're crazy. I don't think I think you're crazy for just believing what you see.

SPEAKER_01

Absolutely. You know what I mean? Now I'm not a giant conspiracy theorist.

SPEAKER_02

No.

SPEAKER_01

But I I got a little touch of it here and there, and and I I find it interesting to to see what other people have to say.

SPEAKER_03

I find it interesting that the World Trade Centers were built to be imploded. Airplane ran into it? My ass. Yeah, I did run into it.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_03

But the building didn't come down because of that fucking airplane.

SPEAKER_01

There's a whole shitload of stuff out there on that.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, they're there. Pick your poison. As they say.

SPEAKER_01

Everybody's allowed to believe what they want and have their opinions on what they want.

SPEAKER_03

Now what I do think is a little touchy to nuts, though, is I got a friend that refuses to use GPS because that's how the government tracks you. That's how they'll lead you through a town. Could be to create issues. Could be so you spend money. If you're concerned about the government tracking you off of a GPS, the time to worry about that would have been when you swiped your credit card for the tenth time at a gas pump.

SPEAKER_01

Breadcrumbs. Right. Digital breadcrumbs.

SPEAKER_03

Everything is. Your telephone.

SPEAKER_01

This motherfucker right here has listened to all of our episodes. All of our episodes.

SPEAKER_03

And I thought that was Siri, I heard laughing.

SPEAKER_01

The motherfuckers have been sitting back in little fucking cubicles. Yeah. Laughing.

SPEAKER_03

You guys got uh Echo or something like that. Echo Dot. Yeah. That bitch listens to everything.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, she's a nosy bitch.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_03

I was on my way to work the other morning and got an Amazon message. What is this? And it says, virtual fist bump, Brad. You really put it to her last night. And I said, fuck yeah, Amazon. Listen for more.

SPEAKER_01

Next time you hear us getting on, play a little love music, you fucking selfish bitch. Turn on a little Luther Vanderbilt.

SPEAKER_03

Because you fuck in his kind of rhythm.

SPEAKER_01

Well, not for me. Do you have time to get rid of it on? I'm good for five or six Donna Backs and I'm done. Money's on the dresser, baby. I'm through with you. If you want yours, you better get started. I'll be there in a minute. So no, I don't have time for a song.

SPEAKER_03

Because people say that all the time.

SPEAKER_01

The problem is the average song lasts about three and a half minutes.

SPEAKER_03

I last about a third of that, maybe. On a good night. Right.

SPEAKER_01

Right. I'm no porn star by any stretch of the year. I don't want to be.

SPEAKER_03

I don't want to sit there for a while. I start breathing heavy.

SPEAKER_01

I start fucking aching in places I didn't know I could ache. Fuck that. I'd just assume eat it real quick and then stick it.

SPEAKER_03

I remember doing this check. Uh Donna was her name years ago. And she, you know, whatever. And we've been drinking all fucking day, all night. Oh, I finally I'm just banging the bells out of her. Done. And she turns around and says, Oh my god, I gotta go throw up. I was hurt for a moment because I'm like, what the fuck? And then I realized it's because she was drinking right along with me.

SPEAKER_02

So it was the Yeah, I thought she was jarring.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And I mean, if anybody between the two of us is fucking and one of us is gonna throw up, it should have been me.

SPEAKER_01

But goddamn thing smells like a tuna boat.

SPEAKER_03

Bring me some crackers. It's funny how but but hold on.

SPEAKER_01

Hold on. Fuck me. Isn't it weird? And and this is the shit nobody wants to talk about. Right. But welcome to Bob and Brad perpetually wrong. We're gonna talk about it. Isn't it crazy how one time you could be doing it and that motherfucker don't last 15 seconds? Yep. Next time you're doing it, and you could go like 15 minutes. With the same girl. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, nothing's different.

SPEAKER_03

No, it it's weird. It's like I used to be a big morning person.

SPEAKER_01

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_03

Now I get on that in the morning. I probably go till noon. I don't know why. But are you like any spin the hands of the clock in any time?

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, because I can't. Mornings now it's just like I like to do it because I like to do it.

SPEAKER_01

Right, right. Who don't?

SPEAKER_03

Well, that's like these poor fucking guys that get their prostates taken out because of cancer. They don't poosh anymore. That would be that would be tough. How do you know when you're done? I don't know. Fucking little red thing pops out of your side like a turkey. I don't know. I got some friends that went through that, and it's just like, so it don't know. Wow.

SPEAKER_01

Boy, growing up, we had a uh fuck, a um buddy of mine, his dad growing up, and I don't know what what I was too young to understand some of the stuff, but I was old enough to know what to do. And uh so my one buddy's dad, he owned a body shop, coolest fucking guy you'll ever meet. He was a he was a riot, a lot of fun. That motherfucker would drink but bud light. He had a one of them old school rounded refrigerators that actually was a real refrigerator that lasted forever. He had one of them in the shop and that motherfucker. Motherfucker was full of Bud Light from top to bottom, front to back, the whole deal. He was he was just we'd walk in. Hey, you boys want a beer? We were too young to be drinking beer. So I didn't. But I should have. I wish I would have now. Looking back, because he passed away. And I mean he was just he was just a cool guy. And uh he he was a dirty old man. I think I think he fucked everything that moved. And uh he had one of them penis pumps, like you could just run inside of your leg or whatever. Yep. He says, Oh man, I could pump this motherfucker up hard as a rock. You know what he's going on? I'm like, man, if I ever lose my boner, I'm getting a penis pump. Are you? Oh fuck yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I think that'd be better because some of them people put a needle in there.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I don't want to do that. No, I just I want to pump it up like a fucking pair of uh Nike ears or whatever the fuck it was. Nike, Nike pumps. Nike pumps. On the tongue, you just the motherfuckers, bam.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, you're a big one. I'll give you a couple extra pumps.

SPEAKER_01

Oh fuck. These these folks have been waiting for a week, two weeks to listen to an episode. Here we are. And they're just eating it up.

SPEAKER_03

Happy go fucking lucky.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, um, we had states for wrestling.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, how'd that come out?

SPEAKER_01

Uh first year, Lucas was a uh state placer. He finished seventh in the state of Michigan for his weight class and his age.

SPEAKER_03

Good enough.

SPEAKER_01

Out of everybody across the state. So you know what? Super proud of him. That's a win. He he worked his ass off. His goal was to make it to day two to be a placer, and he did. So bloodied the fuck out of the kid's nose that he wrestled last. I mean, he just fucking he did a meaning. He did a mean cross face on him and fucking it busted that kid's nose open.

SPEAKER_03

And uh once they're bleeding, do they make you stop?

SPEAKER_01

Well, they make you stop, get blood time, and get it cleaned up, stick a damn little tampon up your nose. And uh they went back to wrestling. Lucas got got going with him, got him down, ripped another mean cross face, blood all over the place again. I said, Hey, it's either you or him.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Oh, two bloody noses, you're out of holes now. That's right. That's right.

SPEAKER_01

So he Lucas ended up winning that match. But he's so so seventh in the state of Michigan, which is pretty fucking impressive. I absolutely I'm super proud of him.

SPEAKER_03

Um I'm gonna go upstairs and ask him why he didn't get fifth, but don't don't do that. Do not do that. No. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

No. He uh after it was all said and done, he says, if I'd have done that other match a little bit different, I could have been fifth.

SPEAKER_03

So you can't keep thinking like that, though.

SPEAKER_01

No, you go out there and give it what you got and move on. Learn from the matches.

SPEAKER_03

He's got what, six more years? Right? Five?

SPEAKER_01

Oh, just a few more years in in my way, but then he'll be in high school and we don't we won't wrestle the my way stuff.

SPEAKER_03

But you'll get into the states there. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So he's he's got a few more years to keep building. Um but anyway, one of our top listeners, we were they live over there in the Kalmazou area where States was.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, did you guys stay with Jason?

SPEAKER_01

We stayed with Katie and Jason, and uh we got talking. We try we got drinking and talking and drinking and talking.

SPEAKER_03

She's still drinking.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Okay. Oh yeah. Well, Katie and I, Friday night, stayed up later than anybody.

SPEAKER_03

She's good about that.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah. Sh the problem with her, and this isn't negative, I'm not calling her a drunk like you, you fucking prick. But she's all about one more. One more, one more, one more. Oh yeah. Well, she will one more anybody you've ever seen under the fucking table.

SPEAKER_03

I've got a point where one more is just too many.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I'm dumb enough to keep playing along. But actually, we we didn't stay up too much later than than what uh Kelly and Jason stayed up because I was fucking whooped and it was time for bed because I was tired.

SPEAKER_03

And you had to get up again.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And so uh we were talking, I was talking with Jason, and he says, you know, you guys haven't covered fast food breakfast.

SPEAKER_03

Which is uh actually a really good point because a lot of McDonald's bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. Large Coke.

SPEAKER_01

I do like that, but that's not number one in my book.

SPEAKER_03

Um I just opened my book and told you what my number one is. Why don't you share with me? You're not a Taco Bell fucking taco waffle, are you?

SPEAKER_01

I'm not a fucking Taco Bell anything.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

I've every Taco Bell in this world could fucking close down.

SPEAKER_03

Burger King sausage crescent roll.

SPEAKER_01

No. Okay. Actually, I think Burger King has one of the worst breakfasts.

SPEAKER_03

Straight up fast food.

SPEAKER_01

Fast food. Are you still guessing? Yeah, give me a second.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. Okay, you gotta tell me where it's from.

SPEAKER_01

I'm torn between two places.

SPEAKER_03

What's one number one?

SPEAKER_01

Chick-fil-A. They have breakfast. They have phenomenal breakfasts.

SPEAKER_03

What's number two?

SPEAKER_01

Wendy's. Wendy's has breakfast. Wendy's has awesome breakfast. Really? Yes. What do they have? So they actually have a lot of different things, but I only get one thing. Where the fuck are you going that there's a Wendy's even open anymore? Mason. Right. Yep. So I get the Honey Buddy chicken biscuit.

SPEAKER_03

Like you're down south. Going with the chicken biscuits.

SPEAKER_01

It's a big old fried chicken.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Honey.

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

And a nice buttermilk biscuit.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, what's Chick-fil-A offer?

SPEAKER_01

They have a grilled chicken with egg. Where are you from? Where are you from? My mother.

SPEAKER_03

Let me tell you about it, Rod. What we do for breakfast is pygmy. Sausage. Bacon. Ham. Chickens. Eggs. That's what we do. We take our eggs from the chicken and we take our pygmy and we combine them. We don't have the chicken meat.

SPEAKER_01

Chicken is the new pork. Really? Absolutely. But what you do is you go to Wendy's, you get your honey buddy chicken biscuit. And it comes with these really kick-ass spuds.

SPEAKER_03

Are they crunchy?

SPEAKER_01

Wedges. Deep fried wedges. Okay. And a coke classic.

SPEAKER_03

So basically what you just did there is a lunch.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, it's breakfast. It's a fucking biscuit.

SPEAKER_03

So if we wheel through fucking Wendy's and I get a baconator and I say, instead of a bun, put a biscuit on there, you're gonna call that breakfast?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, sure. No, but yeah, because it'll appease you. No. Everybody knows it's all about making Brad happy.

SPEAKER_03

When it comes to breakfast, if you say, hey, Brad, come over Saturday, I'm making a breakfast. Yeah. And I show up and you got fried fucking chicken. Chip never should have even given me a hug because I'm in that same mood.

SPEAKER_01

Really? I it's not your everyday breakfast. Do a lot of people like chicken for a few years. I don't know. That's the people.

SPEAKER_03

That's the people. These people. Yeah. Let me know. I'm gonna do a poll. Do a poll. Because we don't do good on polls. Yeah. But I'm gonna put a poll out. Do it. Really? So you you would bypass the McDonald's, the Burger King, the the original breakfast fast food, I guess. Yeah. For the Chick-fil-A or the Wendy's. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01

100% of the time. If I have my choice, that's where I'm going.

SPEAKER_03

No, I'm gonna stick with you on the classic Coke. Absolutely. Because there ain't nothing better than a fountain coke.

SPEAKER_01

I do like a fountain coke. If I'm drinking a bottle, I want it to be a Pepsi. I don't know if I'm gonna.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yeah, definitely 100%. I don't know. Maybe I'll have to try a You just gotta try it. Try Wendy's breakfast. Honey butter?

SPEAKER_01

Honey buddy chicken biscuit. Honey buddy.

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

It's pretty fucking good. And their biscuits are usually really fresh. Nice and fish. So they're soft. Oh yeah. Yeah. Every once in a while, well, like any place, you'll get fucking yesterday's biscuit and fucking break your tooth off.

SPEAKER_03

I do like a good biscuit.

SPEAKER_01

And the the little spuds, the potato edge spuds, they're fucking good if they're fresh.

SPEAKER_03

Are you a uh sausage gravy biscuit guy?

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Never used to be.

SPEAKER_01

Never used to be. Used to hate it.

SPEAKER_03

What got you into it? Just tried it?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, over time. But see, I used to have a problem where if I ate breakfast sausage, my guts would be fucking torn up. Like the first bite, one bite, everything's in knots and it's it's not good.

SPEAKER_03

So my buddy Jason's like that. It's something in the herbs, right?

SPEAKER_01

It is, like even a bratwurst. If I took a bite of a bratwurst, it'd do the same fucking thing. So just over time I've I've developed and changed, yeah. So like biscuits and gravy, Jason, that motherfucker can make some biscuits and gravy.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, is that something you'll order at a restaurant?

SPEAKER_01

I don't usually. No. But like at someone's house, like if Jason like Jason will make it for camping when we're doing breakfast at camping, it's fucking good.

SPEAKER_03

No, is there sausage in that gravy?

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_03

Cut up.

SPEAKER_01

Yep.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Like ground sausage. Okay. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I've never had it. Really? And my problem isn't because I get a stomachache from it, it's just I look at it and I'm like.

SPEAKER_01

I'll tell you what, I'll have Kelly make it because she she does a phenomenal shit in the gravy.

SPEAKER_03

Is that mushroom soup?

SPEAKER_01

I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

I don't either.

SPEAKER_01

I just eat it. I don't make it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You like it?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Absolutely. Um so like a lot of times when we go to a restaurant for breakfast, like when we're out bike riding, you've seen me get country fried steak. Yep. And that's got the same crazy gravy. Yeah, gravy over top of it. Oh. Yeah. You know what? I've never yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I never got on you about eating chicken then.

SPEAKER_01

That's not chicken.

SPEAKER_03

What is it?

SPEAKER_01

That's beef. Oh, it is. Country fried steaks.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I thought it was chicken. Oh.

SPEAKER_01

Nope.

unknown

Huh.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe I'll have to try that sometime.

SPEAKER_01

Well. Best one I've had to date.

SPEAKER_03

Where at?

SPEAKER_01

Uh what's that place? Shirley's Chuck Wagon? Oh. Nashville? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That's they got a good strawberry short cake.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. They got they got phenomenal um country fried steak. Like it there. Uh Robin's nest right here in town. They're not bad either.

SPEAKER_03

Isn't that pretty decent?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. You wouldn't know any of the breakfast joints around here because you always make me come fucking your way.

SPEAKER_03

Well, everybody knows it's easier.

SPEAKER_01

For you. Which is oh, can you imagine all around bread again?

SPEAKER_03

Can you imagine me getting Trisha up in time to be to your house by noon?

SPEAKER_01

No, because she ain't ready when I get to your house.

SPEAKER_03

Exactly. So there is a reason.

SPEAKER_01

I get it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. I understand. And then once you and Kelly get there, then all of a sudden, oh, look at me. I can get ready. What were you doing the last hour and a half? Right. Telling me no. Get away. Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Um. So we're in Florida. Yep. We go to Walmart. Uh, I don't know. Second, third day and need to get some more shit. I fucking hate Walmart. We're there. And this old couple's in front of us. Trying to swipe their fucking card. Well, you got the tap cards and you know you gotta tap first. If that don't work, it'll tell you to insert. Right. If that don't work, it'll tell you to swipe. Well, these motherfuckers go right to swiping. Ain't going through. Ain't going through. And the cashier should know better. Help them out. Right. They're old. So they can't do that. So now the girl's getting out her money and she's got a lot of 20s, and she's counting them off, and she gives it to the guy. The guy gives it the cashier, and the cashier says, Your bill's 120. This is only 80. Oh. Then he looks at his girlfriend, wife, whatever. So she's taking some more. They finally get through the payment process. Holy fuck me to tears. And they're walking away, pushing their cart away. Trish says, Hey, hey! And they stop and they look and she says, These three bags yours too? Oh, yeah, God bless you. So Trish gives her the other three bags.

SPEAKER_01

That was $120 for the three rocking there.

SPEAKER_03

We get out in the parking lot. And it loaded up in the truck. We take off. Who do we see out in the parking lot? Them two are out there looking for a couple of things.

SPEAKER_01

None of their fucking cars have no fucking clue.

SPEAKER_03

I wanted to go there three days later and see if they were camped out on one of the little islands. Went in, bought a tent, said fuck it. That fucking state, though, with all them old people. It amazes me that they're still able to function as a community.

SPEAKER_01

And they're left to their own devices because their family's back north wherever they're from.

SPEAKER_03

My God, dude. It's a fucking mess. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you live there, so you know.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, it was terrible. I hated every minute I lived there.

SPEAKER_03

We're going to load up. We're going to go on bike week. We're either going to go to Sturgis or we're going to go to Daytona. Which one would you pick? Pick wisely, because I want to invite you really bad. Sturgis.

SPEAKER_01

Daytona's bike week is I guess I can't speak on Sturgis because I've never been. Right. But but you just have a loop, right? Well, it changed because it used to be right downtown at Bruce Rossmeyer's in downtown Daytona Beach.

SPEAKER_03

It's no longer there.

SPEAKER_01

Well, then he got big and he built this big old conglomerate in um what the fuck town was that? It's right on the tip of my tongue. Where he built that big, huge facility. And it had JMP cycles in it.

SPEAKER_03

Is that why they moved?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. He built that big ass huge facility.

SPEAKER_03

For that reason.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Really? Yeah. I didn't know that.

SPEAKER_01

He kept the place right downtown Daytona. It was just a small, tiny little shop. It never was big. But then he built Bruce Rossmeyer's destination, Daytona, in uh Ormond Beach. I got that. Ormond Beach. Go ahead. You're fine. Okay. And not know that. Yeah. So he built this. I mean, beautiful facility. It had restaurants in it. It had JP cycles. It had a couple other big giant vendors and a couple different bars in it. Just built this giant thing because he was going to really make Daytona Bike Week something special. So you move everything that was always has been and always was for Daytona Bike Week. You moved it 35 minutes or 40 minutes north of there, and it's further off the beach than what it was originally. And just thought that it was going to be just this greatest thing because it was a bigger facility and a bigger property and a big resort. And it's got hotels in it. And it's got, I mean, you name it, it was all there. And you could do anything you wanted. There was a shop there, I mean, just everything. So that's that's what happened to Daytona Bike Week is he single-handedly kind of fucked it up by moving it from the origination for his own game because he owned all that property. He was getting all this big rent and all this big income.

SPEAKER_03

Looking at the Daytona thing, too, like uh Ava, she her boyfriend's family went over there for the Daytona tour, the track tour.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Ava went with them, and all of a sudden now she's kind of interested in racing. She's like, that's really neat. But I said, Did they you see the pictures or videos like when they used to race on the beach? No. I said, What? And I asked one of the other people that went, they didn't see anything that that was the original. That's what made it what it was. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Why wouldn't you have that as part of your so that actually where that happened was down at Ponce Inlet.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that sounds familiar.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. And so you'd go over to the you go over the um bridge over the intercoastal and you go to the um I'm drawing a fucking blanket, what they call that little strip right there that's got the ocean on one side and the inlet on the other side.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. When you were down there, did you ride drive on the beach much?

SPEAKER_01

Never never did I drive on the beach. No. I walked down a lot, but never drove on it. Yeah. In the sandwich. Get a pass and all that bullshit. Oh, you did? Yeah. Yeah, fuck that.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, so you can't, I can't just pull into Daytona and jump on the sand.

SPEAKER_01

You gotta pay a pass.

SPEAKER_03

Really?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Um everything's about fucking money.

SPEAKER_01

It is, yeah. But so down at Pond Sinlet, that's where they would run. Part of the racetrack was on the road, and then you'd come around and you'd hit the beach, and you'd run the beach and come back and hit the pavement, and you'd run down the pavement. So that was it. And there's there's uh um fuck, I can't remember the name of that restaurant, but it's right down in Ponce Inlet, and it's uh something north turn.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, is that the turn?

SPEAKER_01

That was where it's right there where the turn was, and it's a restaurant and a bar, and it's got all the memorabilia from it and all that picture like that. Yeah. Um first turn or I can't remember what the fuck it was called. But it's a it's a very popular restaurant down there. Um right on the beach. That that's where they're where that's where they actually raced at.

SPEAKER_03

Can you can you s like tell where it's at? Like do they have signs or anything? I don't think so.

SPEAKER_01

No, I don't think so. Yeah, so but it's cool. I mean you don't know who lives down there in Pond Sunlight?

SPEAKER_02

I'd like to know.

SPEAKER_01

He's originally from Detroit. He was a major WWF slash WWE wrestler. He was part of the NWO.

SPEAKER_03

God, he looks looks like somebody, but I don't know. He says, That's Kevin Nash. I said, There ain't no fucking way. He says, I'm telling you it is. So I look at him some more and I'm looking at him, and he caught us looking over at us, and he kind of gave us the you know the little head nod, like hey buddies, what's going on? And so we're working out, we're working out, and it wasn't busy, it was just you know a few people in there, us and him. And uh Mac isn't afraid to say anything to anybody. He's he looks over at him, he says, How's it going, dude? He says, Pretty good, how about you guys? He says, Good. Mac says, I recognize who you are. He's kind of smirks a little bit. He says, Yeah?

SPEAKER_03

Like no big deal, yeah, no big deal.

SPEAKER_01

He just, I mean, he's just another fucking dude. And uh he was like he kind of just agreed with it, and Mac was like, that's awesome. He says, you know what? That's cool. And and I just told Mac, I said, Don't bother him. Yeah, you know, and so we go to working out, and we end up, you know, we're doing some other stuff. He can sell over by us. And we so then we were just talking. We were like, hey man, you know Was he pretty cool? He was super cool, fucking laid back, cool dude. Um his legs are about as big as a round as his fucking pen.

SPEAKER_03

I'd be happy if she just let me put my finger in. I have to add this one to the swink bank.

They have definition.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I'd that's okay. Boy, I yeah, well, it's okay, but I if she says no, then I gotta pay attention because I don't want to get beat. Yeah, so that's uh well, a good job on that. I'd I'd replace Mariska with that one.
