[Podcast Host / Narrator]

All right, welcome to Louisville, Kentucky where

[Cornell Mack]

we just broke a Guinness World records. Cornell Mack, my special guest today from Pennsylvania.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Hey man, thanks for having me.

[Cornell Mack]

That was a lot of fun.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

It was for sure. And I guess I was the MC to your laugh a little bit. You know, I know what I was doing.

[Cornell Mack]

Yeah, he threw in a little Pittsburgh Steelers jab at me and.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Yeah. And you came right back with the.

[Podcast Host / Narrator]

Well, I got no, I got much

[Cornell Mack]

to work with sympathy but shout outs to Relco. So they wanted to showcase their engine against real life conditions and they couldn't have, they couldn't have picked a more epic day because it rained. So you had wet grass, tall wet grass. How did the engine do and what was the result?

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

It did amazing. I mean I wish that the people watching could or if you're listening that you could see this, but the grass really was over 6 inches in some places and they brought it down to under 2 inches with one pass. No double cutting. And Haley did a great job cutting that grass and making some cash. I guess it will cutting that grass and setting records. Yeah.

[Cornell Mack]

Guinness world record.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Yeah, for sure. In 14 minutes and 51 seconds.

[Cornell Mack]

And we're talking an American football field which is 120 yards because you got 100 yards end zone to end zone. But as we know, end zones are 10 yards.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Yep.

[Cornell Mack]

So what's that field? Purdue or one of them are painted weird where people like get confused.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Yeah, I don't know but I, it's not the Canada one. Don't get it confused with the 30 yard end zone.

[Cornell Mack]

Yeah. So you got, you got 120 yards and how far is a football field across?

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

53 yards and I think 7 inches or something like that. Yeah.

[Cornell Mack]

So she went, took about 31, 32 passes. She just went back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And the adjudicator, that guy was intimidating. He was, he was, he had all his different outfits. Yeah, he's wearing a vest and had a tape measure and all kind of statistics. They don't play around with that Guinness World Records.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

No. And I gotta give Haley her props, man. We, we got to try that lawnmower after the thing was over. And me personally, I've only used a sit down mower one time ever.

[Cornell Mack]

I'm.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

I'm a stand on guy. Yeah. Yeah. And so when I did my three point turn using the mower, I was like, wow, she really did a great job. Based off of the crap job that I did, she was zipping around on that thing.

[Cornell Mack]

How she got on the mower is Relco had a contest where hundreds of people applied to be the person who got to attempt this world record. So she just pitched her video of why they should choose her and being a woman. I think there was. Some people are like, you know. Anyway, I was, I was hearing it up a conversation in the back. She did so good. She definitely, I mean she would outmo most but any. She was just excellent on the mower. Her turns, her, her lines were straight. She, she can mow with the best of them.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Yeah. She was serious too. She got some guns on her triceps.

[Podcast Host / Narrator]

Yeah.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

She was out there ripping it for sure.

[Cornell Mack]

Yeah. So the, the Guinness World Record after some suspense.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Yeah. That was crazy. We was wondering, I mean the dude was like, you got to get the cameraman here. We was like, huh? And then he had to go around to different locations to check. He had this little like measuring stick to make sure that the grass was where he needed to be. Then he went into a tent, changed his clothes, he went from a vest to a blazer and then he came out with a certificate and all of that. It was just cool to get to. I've seen that stuff on tv, Paul, and I've been, you know, when I was a kid looking at that Guinness World Book of World Records. But to get to see it happen in person was really cool.

[Cornell Mack]

Yeah. Fantastic. Well, we're in Louisville, Kentucky, which is famous for something else, the Equip Expo. And you have a big event at the Equip Expo. So tell us, tell us kind of the history of your event and what you guys got going on this year.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

So this event within the event. Yeah, it's called the Win in Life meetup. And to be honest, it was inspired by my first ever year. Come in here. I went to what was then the GIE Rally. Posted by our friend Naylor Talia Farrow. And when I left there, I Just left with feeling this energy because the whole atmosphere was just alive there. So when I went home back to Pittsburgh, I wanted to have that, too. So I started having meetups locally in Pittsburgh just to get the people around so that we could raise the bar for everyone. Because my first year, people were charging $35, and so I had a meetup to be like, yo, we need to raise the bar. We need to be charging 50, 55, 60. And that was kind of how it all started. And then those were doing so well in Pittsburgh that I just decided, let's do one down here at Equip Expo. And so we did one. The first year, it was actually this kid named Troy, me and my friend Cedric. And 25 people came, and I was, like, blown away because no one even knew who I was. Not that the event is even about me, Paul, because it's about the people that go. And so 25 people showed up. Keith Calvis and Blake Albertson were two of the people that I was, like, admired from the Internet. But they showed up, and I was like, oh, we're just going to do this thing for real next year. I rented out a bowling alley, and 180 people came to that one. In 2023, 2024, we had 200. I think 24 people came to that one. And then last year it went crazy, and we had 379 people show up.

[Cornell Mack]

Wow. So it's back at Verdant Lanes this year on October 21, 2026.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Yep, yep, yep. And we got three games. We. It's a. It's a fun, family friendly atmosphere. You come, you can bowl, we provide food for you. There's a cash bar available if. If that's what you. If that's what you're into. But then we also play games there. So it's a. It's a lot of camaraderie that goes on. We got three games. We do the Strike Challenge, which was sponsored by Crest last year. We have the rock paper scissor tournament, and we also have the best dress contest, which was won by our boy Pookie last year, Lamont Hairston.

[Guest (Possibly Haley's Friend or Co-host)]

Half.

[Equip Expo Promoter]

50% off with promo external code Paul. So when you're registering, it asks you what is the promo code? Type in, Paul. P, A, U, L. That will catch your tickets off.

[Cornell Mack]

Half.

[Equip Expo Promoter]

Half off. I think that's how you say that. Half off. 50%. I used to say 50% and then people thought I was saying 15%. I was like, no, no, no, 50%. Like half off. You get half off if the ticket's $25. You get your ticket for $12 and 50 cents. If you use a promo code Paul. If it's $30, you can get to take it for only $15 with promo code Paul. My first year, I didn't know that. And there actually wasn't a promo code Paul Back in 2017, my first year. So I paid full price at the door. I just waited the last minute and I had to wait in this long line and pay full price. And there's thousands of people that will

[Equip Expo Announcer]

do that this year.

[Equip Expo Promoter]

Thousands. It's, it's crazy. You don't have to be them. You can get your tickets now for half off. And then when you get to the show, you don't have to wait in a long line to get your ticket. You can already get your ticket. Like you get it in advance. They'll, they'll email you your virtual QR code thing. And then when you get to Louisville, they have kiosks all over town that you type in the, the QR code or your, you got different ways you can confirm, but then it will print out your actual badge. And then when you get to the Kentucky acquisition center, you just walk right through. You're already, you're already ready to go and you skip the line and you save money when you register the promo code Paul. So hopefully you'll join us in Kentucky in Louisville for Equip Expo 2026, October 20 through 2023. Again, registration is open, tickets are on sale, and you can get half off your ticket with the promo code Paul. So hope to see you soon at Louisville, Kentucky for Equip Expo.
