A mochi moment from Sadie, who writes, I'm not crying. You're crying. This is what I said during my first appointment with my physician at Mochi, because I didn't have to convince him I needed a GLP one.

[C]

He understood, and I felt supported, not judged.

[B]

I came for the weight loss and

[A]

stayed for the empathy. Thanks, Sadie.

[B]

I'm Mayra Amit, founder of Mochi Health. To find your mochi moment, visit joinmochi.com Sadie is a Mochi member, compensated for her story.

[A]

I'm more proud of Ken's boat than he is.

[D]

So this weekend you texted us and I quote, driving around in this Cheeto truck is.

[A]

So we're just jamming up both lanes, and these bikers were pissed behind us,

[B]

and I'm just sitting here like, what

[A]

is this guy doing?

[B]

And I was like, holy shit. The frame mocker is driving my whole lamb.

[D]

You think you can step it up for Mike today?

[E]

No, I can't do that. Well, Evan's over here flooding the kitchen.

[A]

Last night.

[C]

Happens.

[A]

I don't want to start with me. Okay. I actually do have something I want. I want to talk about last night.

[B]

Oh, perfect.

[A]

Okay. Do I. Am I okay to talk? Guys, we're on the podcast.

[D]

No.

[E]

Okay.

[A]

No, I know.

[B]

People get mad when we, like, talk.

[A]

I know. I don't want to talk too much on this.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

So you gotta, like, kind of ask permission.

[D]

You better watch it.

[B]

Yeah, it's cool with me.

[A]

Okay. Cool.

[D]

Yeah, I'm cool with it.

[C]

Well, thanks.

[D]

I'll allow it.

[A]

All right. Anyway, so last night, I'm out here. I don't have a house right now. In the house I'm staying in, it doesn't have much room, so I have my Xbox set up in my office. So I'm doing a little late night.

[C]

That's what.

[D]

You were up here so late?

[C]

Were you on the mic or.

[D]

No.

[B]

Maybe.

[A]

Yeah, I was on the mic. I was playing with my buddy Cole from the golf course. Remember him?

[C]

Yeah. I thought you were on a conference call. No.

[A]

So we're tearing it up on Call of duty. He's not 12.

[B]

He's 16.

[A]

Oh, really? Oh, yeah. He's a mature 16. He's a cool kid.

[B]

He's a nice kid.

[A]

He is a cool kid. And anyways, it's fun talking with him. It's fun. We, we tear it on call. Anyways, it's about 9 o', clock, I'm like, I. Maybe 9:30, I'm like, I. I gotta go home, like get to bed. You know, we gotta get up early, get to work tomorrow. So I'm walking down, I'm like, ah, I almost walked out the first door. And I go, I should probably just say bye to the guys. I'm assuming, you know, you're probably chilling on the couch or maybe playing pool with Dalton. We've been on a big pool kick. So I go to walk in there to say bye to everyone. I don't hear, I don't see anyone. Huh, that's weird. But I hear running water and I think to myself, oh, is the sliding glass door open? Like do they, are they hot tubbing? Because I hear this like trickling water.

[C]

You know, it would be impossible to hot tub right now.

[A]

Yeah, that will get to that. Well, we can't. Then I think to myself, well, the hot tub is frozen into a solid block of ice. So like there's no way. Then I look over and I just see soap coming out of the sink. I. I hear the water. I grab my phone, I start mid sprint over. I turn it off. There's this much water on the ground. It's just flooding over. The one time Evan decides to do dishes.

[C]

Yeah, I mean it was all, it was gnarly in the sink. So I was like, normally I would just like soap up the dishes, but I'm like, this actually needs some soapy water. And it was gonna take a second and I had some laundry. So I like turn the water on, go get the laundry.

[A]

You might have a couple beers before.

[C]

Oh yeah, turn on the TV or whatever. And then you know, pull out the phone and I know it. I got C.J.

[B]

going. Let me get this.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Yes, sorry, sorry. You could tell your side here, but my side is I. Then I go to go get Evan and like he's kind of got his door partially locked. So I like kind of flip it.

[C]

Like I manage locked or not.

[D]

You.

[C]

I jerry rigged the lock.

[A]

I picked the lock.

[C]

It was as locked as it's going to get.

[B]

The door is locked.

[A]

So I flip, I. I unlock it. Cuz I can kind of like slip it. I pick the lock and I slide it open and, And Evan like kind of like wakes up and he looks at me like this. He get morning Already, like, what the are you doing?

[C]

I mean, I did think that you

[A]

had your hands up.

[C]

What are you doing?

[A]

Rightfully so. Rightfully so. And I go, did you leave the sink running? And you're like, God damn it. You get up, you're throwing your pants on. And anyways, it was. It was just funny.

[D]

How long do you think went between turning the sink on to. Not quite a while.

[C]

15 to 20.

[D]

Okay. It takes probably, what, five minutes for the sink to fill up. So it was a good, sturdy overflow.

[C]

Two or three minutes is all I really needed. Just, you know, a good little layer.

[A]

It was going long enough for the water pressure to be damn near obsolete. It was just trickling out of the thing into it.

[D]

Well, that's used all the hot water.

[A]

Yeah. Well, I'm just so glad that I walked in there, cuz what would have. It would have been probably 5, 6 in the morning until you would have noticed.

[C]

Oh, no, no, no. I. I would have gotten up probably within the next half hour.

[B]

Oh, really?

[C]

Well, yeah, probably. Would I take a pee or.

[D]

It would have made it to the drain.

[B]

By then.

[A]

It seemed like you were pretty tucked in.

[C]

At least we don't have, like, a basement or hardwood floors or anything. Gnarly carpet would be bad.

[D]

That's what I'm saying. If that was like, if you made that mistake in a house, it would be.

[B]

It'd be bad.

[D]

It'd be catastrophic.

[A]

Do.

[D]

Do kitchen sinks have overflows? You know, like the bathtub and bathrooms?

[E]

I don't. Most don't.

[D]

Yeah. What the hell? That's like, the only one you leave on. Like, why would you ever leave your

[E]

bath unless you have, like, the split sink? I don't think they do.

[D]

Yeah, that's what we're saying. It would flow over into the other one, but yeah.

[B]

Cj, at the beginning, you said that Evan has only done his dishes once.

[A]

Yeah, he's done it twice, and he's

[B]

done his dishes twice. In the first time that he did his dishes, he. Very early in his dish soap into the dishwasher. Like, you know, like the little dispenser where you just put, like, the dishwasher pods. He put dawn dish soap in there, started it, and then it pretty much did the same thing.

[D]

That's actually what I thought at first glance. When I saw it and there was soap and water all over the floor, I was like, oh, maybe this is what it is.

[C]

I've actually been running the dishwasher lately.

[D]

Really?

[C]

Like last night, it was actually. I turned that on right before I flooded the sink.

[D]

Thank you. Yeah, that's what I. Once in a while, when we started talking about this, I did not want to give you too much shit because four years ago you did the dishes on, like, your fifth night here and you fucked it up and we made fun of you, and then you never touched another dish. Well, for five years. So I don't want to burn that bridge again.

[C]

But I usually do clean my one solo dish. I just, like, avoid the dishwasher.

[D]

Yeah. The mess of other people's dishes.

[B]

Well, I feel you're there after the last podcast, you know, with the whole dish incident. When dishgate, you know, can let you know, Ryan, about your slip up. Evan didn't want to be caught.

[E]

That was a. That was a tag team with Evan. Evan's the one that brought it to my attention.

[B]

Tag team did okay.

[A]

So I wasn't mad about it. I thought it was pretty funny. And I mean, it couldn't be any more convenient. I mean, we got concrete floors and you literally just grabbed the squeegee and there's a drain.

[D]

The kitchen needed to clean anyway.

[A]

It kind of got the floors a little cleaner.

[C]

Yeah, it. It definitely is cleaner. The sink, the dishes, and the floor than it was before. My little mishap got a little triple whammy.

[D]

We used to have, like, cleaning nights here. We would all just drink six, eight beer and, like, clean everything. We take the whole shop out and, like, get everything all spick and span. But one, we just don't clean it as much. But two, there's so many people that, like, I clean the wash bay or Dalton cleans the wash bay, and then someone pulls in a muddy truck and then it gets dirty and, like, it just. Everything around here is messed that and

[E]

I feel like there's so much more. Just random stuff everywhere. Everywhere.

[D]

Including Jack's office for.

[E]

Yeah, I gotta. I gotta pick that up one of these days. I gotta clean Micah. Micah's makeshift bedroom out and turn that in my office.

[B]

But does he know that?

[E]

No, but, I mean, Mike doesn't stay here anyways, so.

[D]

He doesn't anymore.

[E]

When was the last time Mike stayed here? He stays in Fargo.

[C]

Yeah. Are you talking about at the farm

[E]

or here at the farm?

[B]

I think he stays there more than you would think.

[E]

It's probably been a couple months since I've showed up at the farm. Like nine, ten o'.

[D]

Clock.

[E]

And Mike never stays there.

[B]

For some context. We have like four different offices over at our farm shop, and one of them just got Converted into like a bunk room. So there's two bunk beds in it or there's one bunk bed, two beds in it. I thought he stayed there used to

[E]

a lot more, but since the wedding, not. Not much anymore.

[B]

He's got to go. The old dog's got to go home.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. That'd be a good spot for you though, Ken.

[E]

That's where I'm planning on. I just got to take the afternoon and clean all my shit out.

[A]

Why don't you just leave the twin size bed in there for Mike?

[E]

Because there's no space for a desk.

[A]

What if you sat on the bed and put the desk there?

[D]

You could work from bed. Oh yeah.

[C]

Don't they have those little lap deals?

[E]

Just. Just lay.

[A]

What if you just prop the pillows up, sit on the bed? Like, then Mike has a bed, you have an office.

[D]

It'd be perfect.

[E]

That. That just doesn't seem very productive. But I could.

[D]

Dude, I went home. We got home from our little tour that we were doing yesterday and then got home at like 4:30. Had some ads to write and stuff like that. I was like, I was gonna go home and get it done, man. I worked from the couch. It's kind of nice, that work from home shit.

[B]

It is pretty nice. Like the one time that I've ever like, taken a meeting at home.

[D]

Yeah. You're like, oh, it's kind of a nice vibe.

[B]

Or when something's going on, I'm like, oh, I just have like some computer stuff and then I go home. The thing about it though is like, it's hard to be in like the working state of mind when you're at home.

[D]

You try to separate it.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

When you're here, like you're here for a purpose.

[D]

That's true.

[B]

When you're at home, your body kind of just is. Goes into that chill mode.

[D]

I don't feel like your brain ever goes into chill mode.

[B]

No, it doesn't. Based on the text, separate it a little bit.

[D]

A little bit. About 11:30 rolls around. That is fired up.

[B]

Yeah. My. Oh, it's been bad lately actually.

[D]

Like, what's been going. Going through your brain? Just video ideas or what?

[B]

Oh, yeah. I've just been like, not able to fall asleep until like 1130 because I feel like as soon as I get into bed and I close my eyes, my brain is just like, sweet on, oh, time to think. And then it's like, oh, I gotta write that down. Or then I gotta look this up.

[D]

Or you need like a notebook instead of pulling out your phone and writing it down. You need like a notebook, little diary.

[B]

That's a great idea. Actually, I was thinking that the other day it'd be kind of nice to have just like a little pen and paper notebook. Like something that you can fit in your pocket.

[D]

Your pocket.

[B]

Say that again.

[E]

I finally like stopped bringing my phone. Like just laying in bed and then just doom scrolling and I fall asleep way faster now.

[B]

Yeah, I know, I would too, but. But the second that I would do that, like if I left my phone in, in the bathroom or in the kitchen.

[D]

You just can't.

[B]

I would just get into bed and then I'd be like, oh, this is a good idea. And then I'd get out of bed and I'd go and get it and yeah, then it would mess everything up even worse. I feel like I've been doing what,

[A]

what you said, Ken as well. But I have something that even helps you fall asleep faster. Lay on the floor while you're watching tv. Not even the couch. So like I'll just lay on the floor. I'll have like a pillow and I'm watching tv. And by the time you go to bed it just feels so much nicer. You're just like you just. And you just fall right asleep.

[B]

That's an interesting way to go making yourself uncomfortable.

[A]

No, it's not that uncomfortable on the floor. But like when you get into the bed, then you're just.

[D]

Feels even better than the couch. That makes sense actually. And also you don't watch TV as long because the floor is less comfortable in the couch. Yeah, I love sleeping on the couch.

[A]

I don't know. That's just like something I've been doing lately. Not necessarily purposely, just because it's kind of cold in the house. So I sit there by the fireplace and I'm just on the floor and then by the time I go to bed, I'm just like out.

[B]

You know what I did start doing, ever since we talked about it on the podcast a while ago is. Is doing like the send later text.

[A]

Oh yeah.

[B]

So you can schedule your text to send at a certain time. Cuz I am trying to be, I guess just a little more aware of other people's.

[D]

You don't got to do it to us. But then there's like other people

[B]

do it to other people that I feel

[E]

like when you do that it's more relevant because they see it come through at a time where it's like oh, oh. Ben sent me a text at 2am and there's 15 other text messages on top of that. Like, you send that at 9 or 10 o' clock when somebody's actually going to be able to look at that. It's way more productive, I think.

[D]

Do you write it for future Tense? Like, I just wrote one last night. I was talking with Sydney because she's doing the interior design and I didn't want to start bothering her at midnight or 12:30 about it, even though her and Mike are probably just getting up for the day at that point. But. But I did send later, so I'm like, good morning and then whatever. It's kind of. It's kind of weird. You like writing ahead for the future.

[B]

Yeah. It feels like kind of corporate.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

It is strange. But I think that. I think it's more respectful, I guess, of other people's sleep schedules. And I think you probably get a better response.

[D]

Yeah, you probably do. Because like Ken said, it's. It's the daytime.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Have you guys been, like, thinking about your weddings or your girls handling that? Because both of you guys are in, what, six months till.

[B]

Ryan, you're gonna get me in some trouble here. Yeah, obviously I've been thinking about my wedding a lot.

[E]

You were calling me last weekend about your. Your honeymoon trip.

[B]

I was.

[D]

I. Ken to come with.

[B]

I wanted Ken to schedule it and book it and do all the planning for it and get my hotels booked and book my flight and know exactly which flight is most optimal of like, oh, yeah, you're flying to this location, so you're going to arrive at this time. Well, you're going to want to really do this out of Atlanta because you're going to be more optimal once you get there to be able to get a dinner res. Like. Yeah. He knows that I have honestly just been like, I've been coddled because of my relationship with Ken. Like, he handles it. Yeah.

[D]

So you don't have to worry about it, which is nice.

[B]

It is, it is. It's great. Ken, I, I really appreciate that you've handled that for all of our travel, but now that I'm, you know, growing up and have to, like, I feel like I'm leaving the house. I'm an 18 year old that has to learn how to do like the dishes or laundry for the first time.

[C]

And dishes are hard.

[B]

Dishes are hard. Yeah. Still figuring that out. I'm still leaning on Ken. I'm calling him up. It does seem a little weird because I did. It did cross my mind to see if you could just do it for me, like, but just book it for me, you scratch my back, I scratch yours kind of deal. I don't know what that looks like, I guess. What's.

[E]

I mean, just give me a credit card. I can book it.

[D]

It can be your. Your wedding gift to them is your travel agent services.

[B]

But I'm talking, like, all inclusive, Ken. Like, your agency is like, book the travel, arrange the. The hotels, the pickup from the airport, get the dinner reservations.

[A]

What if Ken flew ahead and like. Or he drove the Sprinter van ahead of you, so that way he could pick you up from the airport and

[D]

kind of Ken was there, get the Sprinter on for you.

[B]

It's going to be in Europe, so that might be a little difficult, but Ken loves Europe. Oh, perfect.

[E]

I. I don't want to impede on your guys's, like, special moment.

[D]

You won't even know that you're there. You'll just be lurking in the shadows.

[A]

Is like, Ben, Greta. And then Ken in the background like.

[B]

Or Ken is on the trip. And we're like, yo, Ken. You're like, you're here. Like, you should just hang out with us. And he's like, oh, no, I. Oh,

[A]

you're going to Europe.

[B]

Yeah, that's France. South France.

[A]

That'd be sick.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

I do want to say people at home are going to go, how does Ben not know how to book a flight? It's not booking a flight. It's booking the best flight with the best connections, arriving at the airport at the best time, knowing exactly what restaurant to eat on to make your connection, Showing up and getting the perfect rental car that fits everything you need for the lowest price. Like, that's the shit that Ken's good at. Right? Like, it is fully dialed. And he goes, well, we're going to be going here and here and here. So I'm going to pick an Airbnb that's centrally located, that's got the best bedroom in a garage for Evan. And it's pretty impressive. Like, you don't. You can't really look at and go, oh, he's booking a flight. Like, Ken's fucking dial.

[A]

So.

[B]

And the thing about it, though, Ryan, is Ken is also figured out the point system and how to get the best for the cheapest. And that's what I'm trying. Like, I'm, you know, all this shit is expensive. Like, going to Europe is not cheap. So I'm, like, trying to save every dollar I can. I'm going to call the guy that is, like, run. Yeah, he's running the point system to the absolute limits. Ken's like, oh, yeah, I'll transfer these over from this account into that and double check that you can use it. Or I'll double check that you can use it on Greta's account too. If you use Greta's credit card, that's a gold. You get 15 off Delta card. And if you don't have that, then you can save this and that. I'm like, he saved me a ton of money.

[D]

Exactly.

[E]

So, like, the other thing, when we went to Europe last fall, I use Chat GPT for restaurant recommendations, and it. It didn't fail. Like, don't look at TripAdvisor. Just look at Chat GPT kind of

[B]

showing your cards right now.

[E]

It was. It was amazing. Like, I said, hey, I'm looking. I'm in this area. I'm looking for a dinner reservation at this time for this many people. What's the best spot to go to? And it just told you three different options, and they were all fire.

[D]

Even Chat's gonna steal Ken's job.

[B]

To answer your question, though, Ryan, how wedding planning is going? Yeah, it's going really well for me. I haven't had to do much, which is great, but it's, like, taken all of it and just handled all of it. But I was, like, so out of the loop because she was just, like, doing it all herself. And she wasn't asking me, like, what do you think about these flowers or this color com, things like that. And then. But I had. I had to check in and see, like, where. Where are we at here on all these things that you've been planning budget wise? Oh, that's true. And that's where I think she's trying to just give me the information that I need to just get by where she can still just keep on tracking.

[D]

Yeah, exactly.

[B]

You know, like, she just gives me little tidbits and hopes that I don't get in. In the way of her work. She's got this shit dialed.

[E]

Well, she could have spent this much on something, but she only spent this much.

[D]

Exactly.

[E]

So they're basically paying you to do that. You're saving so much money.

[B]

And then I'll come in and be like, how could it be this expensive? Or, like, where is this money even going? And she's like, well, this is just what things cost. And I start looking into it. It is expensive.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Weddings are an absolute robbery. Like, the prices that these vendors charge because it's a wedding is astronomical. So I will agree there. It is hard because she's like, I'm trying to, like, shave Where I can of. Of like, saving money. But, like, weddings are just expensive.

[A]

Yeah. I mean, one thing I will say, too, it's kind of like when you're doing a house remodel, like, the more people you have involved, you're like, hey, do you like this carpet? And they're like, I don't know, what else do we have for carpets? You know, like, the less opinions or

[B]

people like cooks in the kitchen.

[A]

Less cooks in the kitchen, the faster and better can get done. And at the end of the day, it's all going to be okay.

[D]

So that's how I work with Alondra. She's the chef, I'm the sous chef. Whatever. What do you ever you need? I'll be in the background for it. But, like, yeah, she'll. She'll steer the ship on it, because otherwise I'm just going to get in the way. And the one thing that I'm like, fuck, yeah, I really like this. Then she'll be like, are you sure on that? Like, God damn it. So I just let her make decisions, and then it's going to look fucking great.

[B]

The thing I am excited for is she's actually told me that. She's like, do you want to know this or do you want to be surprised?

[D]

Oh, and I'm, like, surprising you, who

[B]

I want to be surprised. And so I'm like, I'm looking forward to. I'm looking forward to the wedding just as much as, like, any of the guests of, like, I don't know what the hell is gonna be going on.

[D]

You know, I think I'm getting married.

[B]

The rough itinerary of it, but I'm gonna be very surprised on a lot of the details.

[A]

Are you guys gonna helicopter in?

[B]

I did mention that to her, and then she was, like, all concerned about, like, her hair.

[D]

Ah, makes sense.

[E]

What if she also came in on the helicopter and then they. You know, they powered on the rotors and then she walks out?

[B]

Well, Canada, we are getting married. I think she would be there with me.

[E]

Well, no, it's not like just one person arrives and then the other person's already there.

[A]

I know what you're saying.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Like, if you just sat in the chopper until the blades were completely done spinning, they come in super dramatic. You land, and then everyone waits 10 minutes or 15 minutes, however long it takes.

[B]

Might be a little awkward. Yeah. The other issue with it is, like, you have everything set up and looking nice. You come in and you just blow all the chairs up. Everyone gets dusty. Everyone's hairs get messed up.

[E]

But think about how sick that entrance would be.

[B]

Oh, it'd be dope.

[A]

Also, it'd be a great vehicle for Evan and Gavin to hop in later and fuck around it.

[B]

That is. That is also true.

[C]

Are you going to like leave a

[E]

little, like a little playroom for them to keep them like, entertained?

[C]

Just like. I'm going to just leave this Miata with the keys in it over here kind of.

[B]

Yeah. I've been thinking a lot about it actually. Casino.

[E]

Because I.

[D]

Doing the stunt show, so you can't.

[A]

Yeah, I have ramps being put in.

[B]

Are you doing the, like Gavin jumping through the. The fire?

[D]

Yeah, it's two rings.

[B]

Two.

[D]

Two flaming rings, like just married. And then it's Gavin going through them.

[A]

Yeah, they got the carb dialed on that three wheeler. Like it's running like a top. It's running like a top. But it's not gonna by any means bog at the top of the ramp. Like he's gonna get maximum air.

[B]

Yeah, I've been thinking about it for you. You know, I don't want you to get bored. I want you to obviously have some excitement. I know Ken's not going to let me use his Lincoln Continental.

[E]

No, My. My loaner vehicles are off limits this year.

[D]

Really?

[B]

Ken has been burned one too many times.

[E]

My. My vehicles are no longer loaner cars. They are strictly off limits after. After Evan. And Evan and Gavin.

[C]

Mainly Evan, though.

[E]

You. Twice, actually.

[A]

So.

[B]

Yeah, I can't.

[E]

My Continental and my Bronco now.

[C]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

So worth it. Yeah. I gotta just figure out what that looks like.

[E]

Maybe, you know, Ryan's got a. Ryan's got a bright orange Corvette. You can just leave the keys in it. Let him play.

[D]

Sure, you can. Have at it. That thing, it's. It's built right. It's. It's a Chevy. It'll take it.

[C]

I don't know what the venue looks like, but maybe just leave a Chevy in the back 40.

[B]

Well, it's a ski hill.

[C]

Oh,

[E]

imagine trying to do a ski hill in a Corvette.

[C]

I'm just thinking about going up a ski on a Chevy, but Corvette would be sick.

[E]

That's a Chevy.

[C]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[D]

Silver Rudy through the woods there, hitting the mountain bike trails in the truck.

[B]

I want to do a fireworks show. And so maybe it could be like the fireworks are going and then you just see the shaft, like going up the hill, bouncing its way up spare

[A]

tires and bouncing in the back.

[B]

There's some kind of explosion at the top where you Hit the explosion, it sets it off, and it's like the grand finale.

[C]

I like that.

[D]

And then CJ's is at a golf course. That's perfect.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

It's not a golf course. What are you talking about?

[D]

Isn't there a golf course nearby?

[A]

Oh, yeah, nearby. The wedding's not on the golf course, though.

[D]

Okay, sorry. Sorry.

[A]

But, yeah, we'll definitely be going golfing before. That's for sure. But that'll be just the boys.

[B]

I've already been making some calls.

[D]

Have you?

[B]

Yeah, of course.

[D]

You got so much stuff to plan between the two of you. All these secrets between. Because you're each other's best man.

[B]

Well, I don't think it's a secret. I mean, I've been asked.

[A]

Secret.

[B]

I don't know if there's.

[D]

Oh, I didn't know if there was a surprise element.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

We're planning out Ben's batch party for May.

[E]

I think I got a lead on a pretty sick suite.

[A]

So I think, dude, I got a bunch of people working. I mean, we got Ken, we got Spenny using his connects in Vegas. I got Matilda. I mean, I'm trying to reach out to people, like, you know, just trying to get some dope going.

[B]

Yeah, I'm fired up.

[D]

It's gonna be so loud.

[B]

So excited.

[E]

See, we're getting Ben's batch party dialed in. What do. What do you want to do for yours?

[A]

Well, that's the thing is, like, we're, like, so close together, and I kind of want to go to Vegas, too. But, I mean, if. If there's a better spot than Vegas, or not necessarily better, but just, like, another good, cool spot, I'd be down for that.

[B]

I think we got a little bit more time in between.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Play off of dust settle, and then hit it again.

[A]

We could hit mine in, like, the fall.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Ken, I see your Harley is on the.

[E]

I didn't even notice that. Damn.

[D]

Yeah. You like that? The new decorations here, I figured we'd spruce it up a little bit. We never really use that TV back there. We have this TV up front, and I was like, yeah, pull stuff in. It's supposed to be hung on the wall, but it's kind of hard to hang it in the corner, so we're.

[A]

It really makes a nice decoration.

[D]

It really does. So you can take it down if you need to ride it. Ken, just please wash it before you put it back up.

[C]

It looks smaller than I remember it. Like, that's very. That's a very small motorcycle.

[B]

It's A wall ornament.

[A]

It looks like a toy, dude. It does not look like it would actually look.

[D]

The fact that Ken sat on that thing is impressive.

[E]

It does look a lot smaller when you have it elevated like that.

[A]

We should motor swap it so Ken can actually drive it on the street.

[E]

I think we need a suspension swap more than motor swap it.

[C]

There's some springs in the seat, like

[D]

the bicycle seat springs.

[E]

Just make it a little taller.

[A]

You swap the springs in the seat for more heavy duty springs.

[B]

Dude, I wanted a pocket rocket so bad when I was a little kid.

[D]

Dude.

[A]

Sam, those are the dream.

[B]

Because that one movie employee of the month. Is that what it was? Where he had the pocketrocket that he would like drive through the store?

[D]

I think so.

[B]

Or you take it to work every day?

[D]

I think so.

[B]

I just remember seeing that be like, what? That's the craziest thing I've ever seen. There's a little kid crotch rocket.

[D]

They had little gas motors in them, right? Well, I guess there's no electric back.

[E]

I mean, basically just like that.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Faster.

[B]

And I think what did we. We had one for something, didn't we?

[A]

We had to.

[B]

Oh, we had. Did the Amazon one. Yeah, that's right. And it just was like way slower. But I think it'd be pretty sweet if we like built a fast one. But yeah, we should.

[C]

We should get like three, four of those and just make a little GP course over at the farm.

[A]

Or make them go faster first.

[B]

What if we did pocket rockets to Sturgis? Oh, and then we rode them around Sturgis.

[C]

Well, it depends where we. Where we start. If we're going two Sturges from here. Bad idea. If we go to Sturgis from the gas station down the street.

[D]

Yes. A Sturgis city limit.

[E]

Maybe like Deadwood to Sturgis. Totally possible.

[D]

Even still, at least downhill.

[C]

That actually would be insane. You'd probably burn the brakes right off.

[D]

100. Gonna pile that thing up. Dude. Those things are hard to ride. The little tires are hard.

[C]

I actually love this idea. From Deadwood to Sturgis.

[E]

If I had to actually drive that on the street, I don't think I could because like how long my legs are basically limits how much that steering wheel turns.

[D]

You don't have a pocket rocket.

[A]

It's all about leaning on a motorcycle.

[E]

You're basically leaning.

[C]

Yeah, but you don't do.

[A]

On a motorcycle.

[B]

You don't turn the turn a little bit.

[E]

A little bit.

[D]

Not at all.

[E]

Not really.

[B]

You riding a motorcycle is making a lot More sense after hearing that.

[D]

I can't believe you made it this long.

[A]

You guys remember when we were in Sturgis and Ben was leading the pack and for some reason he was going so goddamn slow.

[B]

That's my popular.

[A]

It was holding everything back because Ben never wants to speed. Ben does not break the speed limit.

[C]

I think that's the last confirmation confirmed memory of Mike's Papio.

[D]

Really?

[C]

That was Mike's papio?

[B]

Was it?

[A]

It had a different sprocket on it.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

So like the speedometer wasn't accurate and Ben was going legitimately probably 15 to 20 miles per hour slower than this.

[D]

Holy.

[A]

There's this huge backup and we're all in the right lane and Ben's just sitting in the left lane. Like all of us are in the right lane. Wondering why Ben's going so slow, thinking like, ah, maybe he's just waiting for the camera or whatever.

[C]

And.

[A]

And Ben staying in the left lane. So we're just jamming up both lanes and these bikers were pissed behind us. And I'm just sitting here like, what is this guy doing? And then you finally move over and those guys were yelling at us like,

[B]

get off the road. Yeah, that was tough.

[D]

It's bad look too. One of those little bikes.

[A]

Last thing you want to do is piss off a bunch of bikers. In Sturgis.

[B]

Not the place. Well, I was, I was saying that, you know, you think you get bad looks or bullied riding a crotch rocket in Sturgis. Well, imagine riding pocket rockets and Sturges

[A]

and holding up traffic. That'd be the biggest.

[D]

I think you might go so far that people actually think it's funny. You know, like there's. There's like the middle lame version that like people really hate. But if you try so hard to be lame, then it's actually kind of funny.

[B]

We get little Harleys. Like they. I think they make those.

[D]

Like I'm looking at.

[B]

No, like a little bit bigger with like a fairing on it though. I've seen kind of street glide.

[C]

I've seen like choppers with like Briggs and straps button in it.

[B]

Yeah. I think we would just have to make them fast enough so you could like keep up. But the issue is with those is they are so sketchy. Yeah.

[D]

It's terrifying.

[B]

You. You go 20 and it's sketchy. So imagine going 55.

[A]

Yeah, exactly.

[D]

Down those roads and they're. I mean there's like potholes and too, you know.

[B]

Oh yeah. I didn't even think of that.

[C]

Isn't deadwood disturgis. Like 40 the whole way. And it's downhill.

[E]

There's a couple like 50 sections. But it's like with all twisty turvy. It is, it's like, it's pretty slow.

[B]

The great migration from Deadwood to Sturgis. Well, ev, you seem to be making a little bit of progress on your excitement about Sturgis, being that you didn't shut it down immediately. You are coming around.

[C]

This is a bad look.

[B]

Cheeto fest.

[A]

Yeah. Speaking of Cheetos, how's your truck, Ev?

[C]

Just as hideous as the day I got it back.

[A]

So you don't like your Cheeto rap?

[C]

I mean, it's just a little extreme.

[A]

Honestly, I thought that's what you're all about, extreme.

[D]

So this weekend you texted us and I quote, driving around in this Cheeto truck is.

[A]

So you won't be keeping it?

[C]

No, I think I'm gonna, I think I'm gonna re wrap it.

[D]

Really?

[A]

What color are you gonna wrap it?

[C]

I kind of want to do something different, but I'm having a hard time not just going back to red.

[A]

I think you got, if you're gonna re wrap it, I think you gotta do something other than red.

[C]

But I would try to do as close as I can get to the Lambo, I think, which would be mad sick combo, which they already were pretty relatively close.

[D]

That is a good two car solution.

[E]

I think even if you just put that same red on there with it being brand new, no sun fading, no nothing, I think it would look a lot closer.

[B]

Oh, for sure.

[D]

You could wrap your Lambo Cheeto.

[C]

You know, that's a great idea.

[D]

We could do it for you.

[C]

Nah, you really, you really shouldn't. You really don't need to.

[E]

But how sick would that be? You having two Cheetos rigs maybe sick

[C]

for you to look at.

[D]

So, so what happened when you went home?

[A]

Are you having any good reactions?

[C]

Like, I mean, I guess everyone just thinks it's funny.

[A]

Like your friends or what?

[C]

Yeah, or anybody that's driving down, do

[A]

they just take pictures? Like what are they doing?

[C]

Like I'm sitting at like intersection and I can look across and like the two people, there's three lanes and two of them have their phone up and I'm just like, oh my God, just

[A]

wait till the video. Well now the video is probably live.

[C]

I'm just like pulling into the gas station. You just look and like everyone's like kind of peeking, like, look at this moron.

[A]

What you need to do is get a collared shirt and have it say Cheetos and then like a bunch of Cheetos like in the back. And then people just think you're working, you're wearing a hat. Frito Lay hat. Is that who owns Cheetos?

[D]

I think so.

[B]

Do you think that anyone actually thinks that you are a driving that?

[A]

I don't think they think that.

[B]

They're probably. They don't.

[A]

[B]

Let's see that and go.

[A]

Moron.

[C]

No, like that. I think there are. I think. Don't you ever see like. I guess it was kind of more of a donk thing but people would theme stuff like all the time. Mountain Dew, SpongeBob, Batman. Like I don't know, there's like hellcats out there that are like Batman.

[A]

I think it's when it's done kind

[C]

of a sick car. But like why the fuck do you have a cartoon on it? I feel like that's kind of my

[D]

Fast and furious Tokyo Drift. That, that thing sick that thing was.

[C]

So I just feel like I'm making an attempt at it. People would look at that if they don't know which is most people. The average person is this going to go what the fuck is he?

[A]

Maybe I would say if it was like a Toyota Corolla or like a Camry or like one of those kind of cars and then they got like the frickin big wing on it and they like got red pinstriping and all that stupid shit like they're trying to make it something is just not. That's when. When you kind of like fucking moron. So like the Cheeto truck, it really was done. It really Was done right.

[E]

Well, it's kind of like, you know, Oscar Meyer has the. The hot dog mobile and Cheetos now has the. The Cheeto Raptor. It's part of the brand.

[D]

We should get you a giant fucking Chester Cheeto to sit in the passenger seat.

[A]

I thought about when. When Mike was designing the wrap having like a Chester Cheeto figure in like the back like that you could put on the glass. So it's like half his body. He's like waving at people. Yeah.

[B]

You know, like you put it on

[A]

the windows where it looks like he's riding in the back.

[C]

I was looking. This was before the truck. Just when the Cheeto bike came around. It's about like 500 bucks for like a Cheeto mascot costume.

[D]

You drive.

[C]

Drive around in the class. You might be a good idea.

[A]

Isn't it?

[D]

Then there. Could you hop out at the gas station then and walk in? Then people are going to be thinking

[C]

more on or furry buy out all the Cheetos.

[A]

Isn't insane. What has, like transpired from the whole Cheetos thing? Like it started with you referring to if that's Cheeto, that's not a good thing. Like, dude, that thing's. That's Cheeto now. It's like wrapped on your dirt bike like this brand that you're. And like people are sending you like Cheeto merch. Like you're associated.

[C]

So Cheeto and others of Cheetos semi or delivery trucks.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

Yeah.

[C]

An absurd amount of those I trust wrapped Cheeto.

[A]

Like now it's like Cheetos is like a part of your brand. Do you think that they think of it as a bad thing or do they just think he loves Cheetos at this point?

[C]

I really don't know, dude.

[B]

I think it depends the context that people use it in. Nobody thinks of, like Evan as Cheeto, but when they. They still use it in the context of talking about Dalton's truck. So it's like it's got two meanings in the use of Cheeto.

[A]

I think we really missed an opportunity. Not wrapping Evans truck the exact same as Dalton's truck. That would have been hilarious.

[D]

What would you have hated more?

[C]

That really that. Yeah.

[A]

You would have ripped it off even quicker.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You know, it was funny because Dalton didn't know like the plan and was he tripping?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

We're like going. And he sees the wheels in the back and he goes, I already know what you're doing. You wrapped it like mine and you're putting the wheels on. It's got the same wheels. Like, oh, my gosh, dude. Like, he's, like, sitting there, and he's

[E]

kind of like, he was fully crashed

[A]

out, and he thought, like, for sure. And then I'm just kind of chuckling because I'm like, man, you saw those wheels in the back, and you thought that it was your truck. But, yeah, it was just funny because I was like, damn it, we should have done that.

[B]

So that one. That one would have been coming off faster, though.

[C]

Yeah, but I don't. I don't think the Cheetos has too much more life.

[A]

And how long do you think you'll run it?

[C]

Basically, until I can get my truck rewrapped. I don't really want to pull it off. I'd rather just have them do the whole thing.

[A]

Yeah, that's the way to do it.

[D]

So what I'm hearing is driving around in a Cheeto wrap truck is better than driving around in a silver Raptor

[C]

if you mix in the pain in the ass. Like, I don't want to pull the wrap off. Disassemble all the pain in the ass.

[B]

So it's.

[C]

That's, like. It's pretty close. Silver versus Cheetos. But then the labor tilts the scale to. I guess I'm going to drive around a cheetah truck.

[D]

No, I do agree with that one. We peeled the wrap off of our first Chevy because that thing was on there for. I don't know, probably about similar time to your Raptor, maybe even less. It comes off in sections like this.

[B]

Oh, brutal. They just wrapped over Evan's red wrap,

[D]

so, yeah, it might pull it off

[A]

with the Cheeto, which could be good.

[B]

No, I think the red wrap staying. The Cheeto wrap would come off, and then they'd have to. You'd essentially have to unwrap it twice, but.

[D]

But the Cheeto wrap should come off pretty quick.

[C]

Either way, I don't really want to do it.

[B]

Just run it, dude. It's legendary. You're gonna look back at and be like, ah, that was cool.

[A]

It's like, just like your Subaru.

[B]

Yeah, I was gonna say it's like my Subaru when they wrap my.

[C]

How long did you leave that?

[B]

A month.

[C]

Okay, well, I'm already over a month. I'm going on two weeks, so that's

[E]

what I figured, too.

[D]

I figured you leave it for, like, a month. That's. That's what Ben did.

[A]

I would say that Ben's rap was worse than the Cheetos rap because.

[C]

But he had eyelashes.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Like, the things that was on it.

[B]

Nothing cool.

[A]

Like, if someone saw Ben, they maybe would think like, wow, this guy thinks this looks cool.

[D]

Or he's driving, terrible taste.

[C]

And how is that not the exact thing that people would think when they look?

[A]

They might think you're just a worker. Like, no, they might think that it's just a company. Cheetos truck. Like one's advertising.

[C]

I don't think any of the people that think, oh, there's an employee

[D]

giving them 2014 Raptors.

[B]

That's kind of cool.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

You're giving Cheetos definitely some street cred in the.

[A]

It's just like such a brand. Like, everyone knows what Cheetos is.

[C]

I don't know. I think I'll leave it on. If Cheetos sends me a paycheck, tell

[A]

them hit him up.

[D]

Yeah, you could do the thing. It was really big when gas prices were really high. Like, you could put big stickers on your car and then advertise in, like, for however many miles you drove, they'd pay you. It was a big thing in Fargo. I was going to do it. It's fucking dog shit money. You drive like a thousand miles and they'll give you. When were you 100 bucks in. In college. What? Yeah, that's. That's why, like all the taxis around town are wrapped in like old advertisements. Because it was like a service that was doing that you could put a thing on the top of your car, like, you know, like a pizza delivery thing.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

It's like you see cars driving around with a.

[A]

That's a pretty good idea. Like, it's very cheap advertising.

[D]

Yeah, exactly. Because you just people.

[A]

But what if someone's in your vehicle, like doing some dumb. With your advertising?

[D]

Yeah. I'm sure that's why it didn't work

[B]

until one of these dummies his does like a hit and run. Yeah. And then Domino's has their. Their advertisement up top and they're like, I just saw a Domino's delivery car.

[A]

Yeah, true.

[B]

Hit somebody parked and drive off.

[D]

I think what it was is like, it would have been one of those Domino's delivery things, but it would have said like, Kroll's Diner on the top of it. So, I mean, same thing. You could think it was someone from Krolls, but what's a place that doesn't drive around?

[B]

It doesn't drive around.

[D]

Yeah, that like, doesn't have a delivery. JCPenney. There you go. That's perfectly lame.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. I don't think they're doing deliveries. Did you Guys, see that video of the snowmobiler that got stuck on the iceberg and drifted out in Michigan underneath the Mackinac Straight.

[E]

The bridge, really?

[B]

Yeah. That's what they call that gap right there, right?

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

Drifted like, 10 miles out. How did a snowmobiler get stranded on

[D]

an ice like that?

[C]

Happens on Lake Superior most of the time. Well, it's not with snowmobiles, because they usually. It's so thin. They just walk out.

[B]

Yep.

[C]

But, yeah, that happens all the time.

[D]

Buddies. They were out on the ice.

[C]

No, he was good.

[D]

He was good, but other people weren't.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

So what happened? They were.

[C]

They got to take boats and retrieve

[D]

them, and they make you leave your. Right. They won't take your. Like, you can't bring your Vexilar with and whatever. Because I remember someone was like.

[C]

That actually makes sense. I don't actually know.

[B]

So these guys. This is. This is a barge that I want to say just breaks up ice.

[D]

That's a pretty small chunk of ice, bro.

[B]

Yeah, it's a crazy.

[D]

Holy.

[E]

Was he, like, water skipping and then just stopped on that?

[A]

So that's what he's.

[B]

I. I haven't found the context of how this guy initially got stranded out there. If he was fishing and it broke

[C]

off, maybe he just pulled up for a Kodak moment on, like, the very edge of the ice.

[B]

Yup. Could have been that. And then it breaks off. But they went in, they rescued the guy. He ended up being okay. And then they also rescued the snowmobile, which was nice.

[D]

Oh, yeah, there it is.

[C]

That was busting up.

[D]

That seems like one of those things that, like, his wife at home was like, honey, don't go snowmobiling on the lake today. It's not safe. And he goes, it's fine. I gotta get to the Mosquito Inn and have a drink.

[B]

Yeah. And this guy gets.

[C]

Oh, he's driving an old Arctic cat, so.

[D]

Should have let it go down.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

The Coast Guard who rescued him, like, got the call. They go in and rescue the dude, but there's no context of how he ended up out there.

[D]

Yeah. How did he end up?

[A]

He could have been, like, riding across as it was kind of melting. And then he got to a spot and it broke off where he would. Remember when we put the motor on the. We cut ourselves our. A boat out of ice and we put the motor down.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

The guy could have just put his track in the water maybe, and then

[A]

just somehow push it back to shore.

[D]

It would be scary. I mean, it looks like it was a blizzard Imagine being in the middle of the freaking. What is that? Michigan? Lake Michigan.

[B]

Yeah. It was like Michigan and it was like no visibility. They said like they didn't see the iceberg until they were like on 100.

[E]

Is it like that straight? Like notoriously windy too.

[A]

Oh, I'm sure.

[C]

So they weren't looking for him. That boat was out breaking up ice and they just came across them.

[B]

They. They got notified.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

And they tracked me down.

[A]

We need to buy a boat that can break ice for sure. We'll start summer a little earlier.

[B]

Yeah. We got to do the lakes of service around here.

[A]

Whatever kind of like front they need. What do they have for that? Like just like steel front.

[E]

I think it's just steel. Like a steel V, essentially.

[B]

I mean, honestly, all you need is just a. A plastic.

[A]

Break it all up.

[B]

A plastic sea do spark. Now that's worked for us before.

[E]

You just gotta not care about the vehicle you're driving. And anything can be an icebreaker.

[A]

You know, we could take the boat from you motors. I'm sure they'd love that.

[B]

Yeah. In case, you know, somebody wants to buy this boat but they're not sure if they can get it. The use that they want out of it. Well, it's multi use.

[D]

You can extend your season.

[B]

Exactly.

[A]

It'd probably be fine.

[B]

It would start the season early.

[A]

Yeah, no, we. We couldn't do that to that thing.

[D]

We busted up a little bit of ice in the Mastercraft a few years ago. It was hardly saying busting up ice. It was just like a little thin.

[B]

Oh. When we went surfing when it was snowing.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

That was in November.

[D]

Yeah. We had to like kind of bust through a little like slushy ice, but it wasn't ice that's frozen and then now is breaking up is worse because it's thicker.

[B]

It's a little bit different hitting stuff with fiberglass.

[D]

Yeah, true. Just gonna break. I was impressed with how those sparks

[B]

strong enough to tell they're not.

[D]

It's probably a good point.

[B]

And then they shatter.

[C]

But we still haven't broke a single one. So many of you guys.

[A]

Yeah, they're pretty damn tough, dude. And we were hitting ramps with mine. Remember that time when we cut the track in the ice and.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

I mean, the thing's tough. And you'd miss a turn. You'd just put. Hit the ice right into it, smash right up.

[D]

Micah jumped it freaking 15ft downwards.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

He jumped it out of the pool into the pond.

[D]

Dude. We got so lucky on that one. Like the Way that he landed and fell off without hitting his face on the bars.

[A]

Sea do. Sparks are.

[D]

They're tough.

[A]

So tough. And one thing I will circle back on air Natique that we got from you motors that's for sale, actually, right now at U Motor. So if anyone wants our boat from last year, it's only got, like, 70 hours on it, but there is nothing even close to as cool as that. I mean, just the. The nardo gray with the red interior, and it's just the best boat.

[B]

G25.

[A]

G25. 25ft.

[B]

It's a sick boat. And we have not went iceberging.

[A]

No. That thing's in perfect condition.

[B]

Add some. You know, just to clarify, in case

[A]

people are wondering, I mean, if no one buys it, I'd be super happy to be able to just run that again for sure this year.

[B]

Yeah, it's a. That's a sweet boat.

[A]

Like, it doesn't get any cool.

[B]

It really doesn't get any cool.

[A]

Like, if we had to build another one, how would you build a cooler boat than that? Like, you'd maybe just. You'd be the same boat, but you'd maybe just change some colors around, Wrap it in cheetos. We could do orange Cheeto wrap and then orange interior. The whole thing is just orange. But then would you want to ride

[C]

in that if Maybe once or twice.

[B]

You'd be so embarrassing.

[A]

People are taking pictures.

[D]

You motors would be like, do you actually. Do you hate us? Are you trying to make the most unsellable boat possible?

[B]

We hop in it. We're doing the cruise around the lake, and people are running out on the dock. We think they're gonna be like, give thumbs up. And they're just like, yes.

[A]

And then Evan's like, I told you. I told you. They do that.

[D]

They might not yell it at us, but they. They probably would be saying it behind our back.

[A]

What I would do if I would do it differently. Black exterior, still red guts. But I would do a no can do spec all around the outside.

[E]

Now we're talking.

[B]

Well, that's essentially my boat. We could. Ken, you could sponsor my boat.

[D]

You could. Ken, you need a boat.

[E]

I do need a boat.

[B]

Let's put the houseboat at your place with. Next to the mom chaser. I mean, you have the mom chaser.

[E]

Absolutely not. No.

[D]

Why not?

[A]

You hate the mom chaser.

[E]

No, I'm not putting the houseboat out in front of my house.

[A]

You won't put the mom chaser out there either, though.

[E]

No, of course not.

[B]

What.

[A]

Why it's my house.

[E]

I don't want that at my house.

[A]

Well, it's also your boat.

[E]

I don't want to advertise that.

[B]

It is your boat. Ken.

[E]

Let's keep it at your house. If you like it so much, you

[A]

can keep it in my house. I'd love to.

[B]

Sounds great.

[A]

No, Ben, you told me you could keep it at my house. I want the mom chaser at my house.

[E]

You have the wrong boat for the lake.

[D]

You're on, I think.

[B]

Sorry.

[D]

What?

[B]

I'm more proud of pontoon, but I'm not. Not quite ready to take that step.

[A]

But I'm more proud of Ken's boat than he is.

[B]

Dude, it's awesome. It's an awesome boat. It's. It's a 101.

[A]

I would say everyone thinks it's fucking awesome.

[E]

I would say it's awesome in the same terms as Evan's rap is awesome. Everyone says it's cool, but it's like I don't like that necessarily.

[C]

I mean, I think I agree with Ken.

[A]

Really?

[C]

Well, I mean, I could see his point.

[A]

Well, Ken, you can park it up

[B]

with the world's smallest pontoon. You think people say that it's awesome to your face but don't mean it behind your back.

[D]

Can. You had girls crawling all over it so extensively, almost sank and then with all the other girls surrounded, then you had a girl kiss you. I'm just throwing it out there. I don't think that's happened to Evans.

[A]

And she wasn't even a mom.

[D]

It's not happening at the local Casey's.

[B]

I mean, that did kind of get just brushed over of how legendary of a moment.

[E]

Yeah, yeah. But it's kind of like it's my house. I'm not going to necessarily be told like, oh, you have to keep this here because it's mine. It's not. We're just surprised. Oh, you have to keep that there.

[D]

Was there any have to's in this? We'll have to rerun the tape back. I just thought you would want it there.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

We're just proud of the boat and figure that you would want. Want it to use it and show it off.

[E]

Well, it's like it's not very useful if I'm trying to take more than just me out. Like I'm getting my own pontoon. It's just going to be a little bit. A little bit bigger than a one

[A]

boat out front of their house.

[C]

Are you going to just put it over at your nude beach?

[E]

Sure. It can stay at the. At that beach. I wouldn't call it a nude beach.

[A]

I would just get trash then.

[B]

Yeah. Evan. Evan and Dalton are gonna just be using it. Why we.

[C]

I'm not hanging out at Ken's nude beach with.

[B]

Though.

[A]

Which one's Ken's nude beach? Are you talking about the one on the track?

[C]

Yeah, the pr.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

The piss Private.

[A]

It would be trash. That pontoon would be trash in two months.

[E]

Oh, I wouldn't give it that long.

[D]

I. I would put the houseboat on DL as long as. Yeah. Yeah. It.

[A]

Let's put out.

[D]

I could live there.

[B]

Legendary.

[D]

And then we could take it to all the bars.

[A]

It would be so fun. I would love that.

[D]

I'm down.

[A]

Honestly, the. The houseboat. Pretty damn hard to. To beat in terms of level of fun.

[B]

Awesome.

[A]

You can't get that anywhere.

[D]

I might put a new motor on it if we're gonna actually start using it. I maybe would put a new motor on the back. I'll invest. I'll invest my own coin into a good time and put a new motor on it just because I don't want one of those situations where it stops working.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

We crash into something.

[B]

You and Alondra, you living on it. You want to take a cruise around the lake? It breaks out in the middle. Wind picks up. Ryan's taking out all of his neighbor's docks. Oh, man, this thing is so heavy and big, dude.

[A]

It's like a kite, girl. All the walls.

[D]

There's a guy who has one not nearly as cool as ours.

[B]

I don't know how legal that is or if he has a permit or. Or what, but that houseboat has just sat out in front of the beach for years, as long as I can remember.

[D]

So I did some research on that when we were building ours because I thought it would be a great idea. You could rent houseboats and anchor them on Detroit Lake, and then people could come and rent it, and they would have a houseboat, and you'd be all the stuff. So I was looking into it as a little side investing thing. It is legal as long as it isn't a permanent structure. So you can't tie it to your dock with the intention of it never moving. And it can't block navigable waters. Like, that's where I don't get that. Must be within the marina, so he can anchor it there. Like, you can't just anchor them out wherever you want permanently because it's blocking the navigable waters. So you would have to. You can tie up a big boat with the Intentions of it leaving. So as long as it's mobile, you're good.

[A]

It is a pretty good idea because it's like lake homes are getting more and more expensive and unattainable. Just build yourself a house boat. And now you got your boat and your house. You're on the lake. You can just park at some public parking spot and anchor that thing.

[D]

If it's windy on your side of the shore, you just go to the other houseboats.

[A]

Man some big anchors, for sure. Last thing you want to do is have that thing coast away.

[B]

But when you're sleeping, need a nice little dinghy. That's why, like Ken's mom chaser pontoon would be for a houseboat.

[E]

It's the perfect one for that thing.

[B]

So if you wanted to put the houseboat out in front of your house and then use the dinghy to be shuttling.

[D]

No, you could probably walk straight from your boathouse onto your house boat.

[E]

You parked it. Yeah, you could.

[B]

Boat section, Boathouse ception.

[E]

Yeah, you could probably get a little, like, gangway. I think we should put out in front of your place.

[D]

I can.

[E]

Your house might be. Might not be done in time for. For summer, but.

[D]

Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. I want to live on it, and I want to put on deal. And then you guys can all come over and we'll all come and hang out and have bonfires and when you

[A]

think your house will be done right. June.

[D]

I'm hoping.

[B]

Damn.

[A]

That's not far at all.

[B]

So something that we want to do this summer on our new property is build a tiny house.

[D]

Oh, I'm so excited for this.

[B]

And we want to do it in some kind of way that it's a Sea boys tiny house where maybe it's got, like, five levels to it, but it's like, the size of this area right here, and it's just like. It looks like a little skyscraper or

[D]

something, like apartments on top of each other. What's.

[B]

What's the show that they had on. What was it? Tlc. Where they Extreme homemaker. Thank you. Where they Extreme home makeover. Where they build it in seven days.

[D]

Who's gonna be our Ty Bennett?

[B]

Well, I mean, I could maybe do that job, but as long as he doesn't build it. Huh?

[D]

Are you gonna build it?

[B]

Oh, is he the con? He's just the host.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

Well, then he goes. I could probably yell that if we have.

[C]

We have buses.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, we have buses.

[E]

If we prefabricated it and made it out of Containers. How tall do you think we could stack those things? Four or five tall.

[B]

Well, what if we just took a 40 foot shipping container and put it upright?

[C]

Then it's. It's like really by eight and they. Eight by eight.

[B]

Isn't that how small we're going, though?

[C]

I think we got to go a little bigger. Bigger. More like a rectangle than a. I'm

[E]

thinking like, just stack like three or four high of like 20 foot shipping containers and like somehow bolt them together.

[D]

I'm imagining the plumbing in this scenario. If you take a shit on the top floor and like every, every bit is just into the main pipe. So it just comes down with a velocity.

[A]

It's just like a porta Potty style.

[B]

Evan and Spenny are living in it. Or Evan and Gav. And Gav's downstairs eating his cereal for breakfast. Which.

[A]

Which Gavin. And it's just which Gavin?

[B]

Well, Wrench was pretty excited about the idea of it because he was like, I need somewhere to live in the meantime. And I was like, well, you might have some other roommates that might also feel the same way. He's like, that's fine. I'm like, this dude. Know who he'd be living in? An 8 by 8 cell. With cell.

[D]

It's a cell.

[C]

I'll swing by.

[B]

I know that you would. That's what I'm wondering if he's thought out the airflow, especially wherever the rooms are, if they're stacked on top of each other.

[D]

It's tough. You'd want to be down low for convenience. And also the air conditioning would be cooler down there. But then everybody's got to come through your space. It would be. It's interesting. I'm excited.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

If you're a contractor or an electrician or a plumber and or anything else that it would take to build a house. Hit us up if you want to be a part of this project. Because I think if we do a seven day Extreme Home Makeover, Tiny House edition. That's the move.

[D]

You ever hear about the kid that got the Morehead one ended up being a bit of a child perv.

[B]

What?

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

Really?

[D]

Yeah. He's in jail.

[A]

Wait, what?

[B]

The kid?

[E]

Oh, I don't know.

[C]

But this was an actual episode of. Yeah, Extreme Home.

[D]

My dad worked on it. It's a really, really nice house in Morehead. In Morehead? Yeah. I think the kids in jail.

[A]

Oh, wow.

[D]

I can look it up.

[A]

Extreme Home Makeover was working on a house in Moorhead not far from here, and they had like Wrapped it up. And then like the whole community was coming together to like help on the project and they like brought our class there to like rake the leaves and.

[D]

Really?

[A]

Yeah. So we were working on the leaves and then I got tabletopped and sprained my wrist. Yeah, like sprained it really bad. I do good old fashioned tabletop. That's common in the eighth grade. I mean, we still do it today.

[C]

Ken loves a good tabletop.

[E]

I think you love giving them. I hate them.

[C]

I like to be the ground guy because I don't feel as guilty as the.

[E]

The pusher. Yeah, it's. You and Dalton are always the ones that are like, I'm.

[C]

I'm never pushing.

[A]

Ken's a tabletop dream man. Just tall and unstable.

[E]

I almost dragged Dalton down last time, didn't I?

[A]

I think it was Ben. You teabagged him.

[B]

Yeah. Remember, I was on the ground and you were teeping. You said, well, I learned my lesson. I'm done with the tabletops after that one.

[D]

Just kidding. Seven years of supervised released.

[A]

So it was actually him?

[D]

Yeah, yeah. He had a little child stuff. Bad three counts. But his family is actually really great. They had. They have a lot.

[C]

So was the kid. Like, they killed the kids for the family.

[D]

They built a house for the kid. And what in the whole family, what

[B]

did the kid have?

[D]

Spina bifida. But his family is great. They like run a charity and so you feel kind of bad.

[B]

But I wonder what the percentage of families that have this extreme home makeover for their home. Keep it versus sell it.

[D]

They talk about that a lot because one, it blows up your tax bill because it's a way nicer house. And then two, sometimes you have a bedroom that's like themed fucking Star wars. And you're like, you know, they grow out of it, you know, because they would do these extreme rooms.

[B]

Right? Yeah.

[A]

Or you build this crazy expensive house in a neighborhood that's not really worth it, suiting for it. So it's very hard to sell it. Like, it's kind of maybe in like a different income bracket. And then it's also like an expensive house. So then the people that can afford it are like, I don't really. This is a little bit more of a rougher neighborhood.

[E]

And wasn't there also some kind of deal where they would get stuck with like some crazy construction bills at the end of it too?

[D]

Really?

[E]

Like, I think it wasn't like fully completely covered. It wasn't just you get a new house for no cost. It was. They had to put Some money into it.

[D]

There's a whole documentary on it, so I can.

[C]

I'll watch it, but kind of like pimp my ride.

[A]

Yeah, dude.

[C]

People would get.

[A]

They had a car that kind of ran and then they get it back, and now it's a car that still kind of runs, but it's got a fish tank in the front. You're like, dude, what am I gonna

[C]

do with this dude? I guess like a lot of the, like, crazy audio system stuff.

[D]

Oh.

[C]

Or they. They'd keep it. They, like trick it all out for the show and then they. No, they take.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, that show had all the hell with the car. There's a lot of stuff on. On YouTube. You can watch it. Or they like, just kind of. It's interesting. I mean, a lot of those shows are like that. Dude. I actually watched a documentary not too long ago on. I think it was Netflix, but it was about the biggest loser.

[B]

Jared, right? No, no,

[A]

that was another thing where. Where he said he lost a bunch of weight. He ended up being kind of a guy that.

[D]

Yeah, he's a bit of a child. Can't be doing that at all.

[A]

But it's a show about getting these people to lose weight and healthiness. But they were doing it in such an unhealthy way, like Ozem. Because they're just trying to. If Ozempic was out, they would have definitely been on that. But, like, they're just trying to more so get the show. They cared about the entertainment factor, not actually, like, helping the people.

[E]

Well, I think most of them gained it right back.

[A]

Yeah, they gained it right back. And that's because the way that. That they lost it was in such an unhealthy way, like not eating and things like that. You can just watch.

[E]

And they would go back into, like, their normal life routine, and then they just fall right back into their old ways.

[B]

How long were they doing these challenges? Was it week after week after week?

[A]

Yeah, week after week after week. And they'd have to lose a certain amount of weight and, like, you know

[B]

how long it takes to lose it?

[C]

Is it 90 days? Is what the normal.

[A]

I don't remember.

[D]

Yeah, but the doctor said it was like. So the doctor was like, dude, I could have made them lose just as much weight without calling them fat slobs on a treadmill. But it made good tv.

[A]

Have you guys seen that show? It's a. It's like a love show about. It's with different age people. So, like, some of the people are past it.

[B]

20.

[A]

I don't know what the name is. What's the name, Ryan? Age of Attraction. No, it's not that. So anyways, I was thinking we could put Gavin on this. Not love on the spectrum, but on the age. The age show. What's it called again, sorry?

[D]

Age of Attraction.

[A]

Age of Attraction. So basically, yeah, shred 80 and the three wheeler guy. Because the reason why he would fit on it is there's different ages. There's like a six year old man, there's a 21 year old girl, bunch of variety of ages, but it's very hard to tell. They purposely pick people that you're like, I don't. If you had to guess their age, it's very hard. And like Alex is watching, she's like, guess how old this woman is. And I'm like 28, she's 47. And I'm like, holy crap, that's actually kind of crazy. So they purposely pick these people and then they're basically matching up people of very different ages and they don't know until they tell that. But Gavin would fit. Well, then they're, I don't know, the show keeps going on, they're in love. Gavin would fit that. Because as we've said many times before, he looks like he's kind of like 40, you'd assume, like, oh, he's probably like upper 30s, maybe 40. And like he's into the 80s stuff so it makes sense. You're like, well that's probably one of his favorite times he's been alive.

[B]

And then Gavin's 40.

[E]

I don't think he's that. He doesn't look that old.

[A]

I think they think he's older than he is.

[B]

Oh, for sure. That.

[A]

So like he would fit that show because he's got a great personality, he's got a lot of energy, he's young. So then like he'd probably end up meeting with like 55 year old woman. She'd be like, oh, perfect. Like I found a guy my age, this, that and the other. Like they don't build them like this anymore. You know, it turns out He's 25.

[B]

Dude. I'm just picturing Gavin on that show and knowing the entertainer he is. He would be a producer's dream. Yeah, he would be.

[A]

He'd be the main character.

[B]

He would, he'd be the main character. He'd steal this show and they'd be like, holy, this guy is so entertaining.

[D]

They could start a whole new series based on them. Weight of Attraction.

[A]

One time we were a bunch of

[D]

people, they Put a bunch of skinny chicks in fat suits and like Gavin has to fall in love with them and like, of differing weights. It's like you got to take weight out of it. Gab. I can't.

[A]

They tell us I have something to come, come clean about. I weigh only 125 pounds.

[B]

No, don't tell me that.

[A]

I thought that we had a connection though. I didn't think this was all physical.

[E]

You gotta get you up to at least 280.

[B]

Well, it's okay, baby. We can change that.

[D]

Do you have a history of obesity in your family?

[A]

One time Gavin and I were at this bar and there was like this older kind of haggard bar rat woman and she, she likes to hang out at the bar. She's older and Gavin's being Gavin. And I just remember she like said this line like they don't make them like you anymore. Like that she was really into them.

[D]

Holy though, could you imagine being like a 50 year old guy and a woman says that to you? That would be nice. They don't make them like you.

[A]

They don't build them like you anymore, do they? No, they don't.

[B]

Stop it.

[A]

But yeah, anyways, that'd be great to get him on a show like that. Speaking of reality shows, Greta asked me

[B]

yesterday if, if I would ever want to be on a reality TV show because she's been super into the secret lives of Mormon wives.

[D]

Oh yeah.

[B]

And I'll be honest, I have watched a couple episodes with her.

[D]

And you love Mormons, so.

[B]

I do love Mormons. I do love Mormons. Some of the greatest people I know, I've said that on this podcast many times, but these people are clinically insane.

[D]

100%.

[B]

It's unbelievable.

[A]

Makes for good TV.

[B]

And so like I, she'll turn it on and I'm, I'm sitting there watching it like, this is the dumbest shit I've ever seen. I almost can't stop watching because I want to know what, what stupid shit they do next. Maybe some girlfriends of C Boys fans think the same about watching the Seaboids video.

The hell we're doing that week, right? But in this, I'm just watching it like this is the dumbest shit I've ever seen.

[D]

But it's good tv, right?

[B]

It is. But it's like, it's so crazy how like personal they get with like their

[D]

really do their relationship willing to just blow out their spot.

[B]

They blow it out. And I think people forget, like this is like real life. Yeah, they're real talk, they're real kids.

[E]

Like, how real is that? And how much of that is the producers scripting it? Because if you look at the credits, they're scripted.

[B]

People still do it. Obviously it's still script. It's reality TV show. We know how stupid that shit is.

[D]

But they're sitting there and they're talking like, yeah, my husband doesn't satisfy me anymore. Like, that's crazy fucking shit to put on tv.

[B]

It's insane.

[D]

No matter how much money it's for,

[A]

you know, like, that's a guy.

[D]

That's a tough one. Like how.

[A]

It just depends how bad you want to be on tv, bro. And that's what I resort to. They can say that about us. We just total out a $68,000 TRX, you know, like. Yeah, I mean, sound into, like, into logical individuals.

[B]

No, and I get it. I get it. Like, I know where they're coming from and I know, like, what, why they're motivated to do what they do. It's just such a different level of like. Yeah, their personal lives, their.

[A]

I guess online footprint is a little different. You know, we got a. We got a hell of an online footprint too, you know.

[B]

No, I mean the shit we talked about on this podcast is insane.

[A]

So it's insane.

[B]

There's no things that we have said is crazy. But yeah, I don't know. I still, I still watch that and I'm just. I can't believe it. Yeah. I don't know, dude. So the other day I was scrolling Instagram. Okay, this is going to be like the, the most Gen X thing I've probably ever said. Ken, do you know where you were when Clav got frame mogged by the ASU frat leader?

[A]

No, it's like the world stopped turning for me.

[E]

Can you say full words?

[B]

I knew you wouldn't have any idea what that meant.

[A]

I've heard about this, but I don't know.

[E]

You're talking clavicular, right?

[B]

Okay, so there's a streamer. His name's Clavicular. He is all about like looks maxing. So he'll do things like hit his jaw with a hammer to get a better jawline. He reminds me a lot of doll.

[A]

Yeah, he was just hanging out with

[C]

Pepino the other day.

[B]

That was hilarious. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then he like microdoses. Like meth math is what he's.

[A]

Dude, this guy is insane.

[B]

All right, so clavs on. On the right. But anyway, he's a streamer that's blowing up right now. He's doing a great job of getting clicks, but his whole thing is like looks maxing.

[A]

So what's a frame mog?

[B]

He basically, he's got a crazier frame. Oh, like his, his Shoulders like stature. And so he frame Mog Clav when Clav pulled up to a ASU frat party or some.

[D]

Meaning that his shoulders were wider.

[A]

Like I said, it doesn't look that good. Looks kind of whack. He's, like, too wide.

[E]

His. His face looks a little weird.

[B]

Which one's been hitting himself with which one?

[A]

The dude on the right or left?

[E]

The dude on the right.

[A]

Yeah. Looks like that's clavicle.

[E]

It looks like he's taking some kind of, like, injection in his face.

[A]

He probably is. He's doing everything in any.

[B]

He looks maxing in every way possible possible. Like plastic surgery. He's doing a full, like, facial reconstruction.

[A]

He takes a hammer, I guess, and, like, hits himself in the face. Build up some kind of, like, jawline thing.

[E]

I don't know.

[D]

What do you think about that, doll?

[A]

I mean, teach their own.

[B]

I wouldn't do it, but you wouldn't

[A]

hit yourself with a hammer. I'd get a nose job. You'd get a nose job. It's just big.

[B]

I don't know, bro.

[E]

Your nose is not that big.

[A]

Nose job.

[B]

I don't know. I mean, realistically, probably wouldn't do it, but.

[A]

But you said you do a nose job. I mean, if I had to pick

[D]

the perfect facial structure, I would go a smaller nose.

[A]

Okay. Girl thing to do, dude.

[B]

Like I said, I'm not going to do it.

[D]

Unless you have nasal breathing issues.

[B]

Out. Going somewhere with this? I didn't just bring this up. This ASU frat guy that framed my Clav popped up on my feed, and he was talking shit to Andrew Tate.

[D]

What?

[A]

Now he's just in the picture.

[B]

I was like, what the is going on right now? And then I. I look at the video and I go, looks like my old Lamborghini. And I zoom in on the interior. I'm like, okay. Red alcantara and it's white. It's the same wing that I had.

[A]

This ASU guy already has a Lamborghini.

[B]

And then I'm. I'm, like, scrolling through this guy's page, trying to find other videos. And he had the same wheels as me. Same car. It was my car. It was my old Lamborghini. I was like, holy shit. The frame mocker is driving my whole lamb.

[D]

What the fuck?

[B]

Yeah, I was like, this is. This is a simulation. At least this is a simulation.

[C]

His wing was installed by a professional.

[B]

Yeah, we know that.

[A]

Let me see it, Ryan. Let me see it. Dude. I've been seeing his tiktoks.

[B]

He's been like promoting this debloat stuff for your face. The frame mugger guy has been.

[A]

I'm assuming he makes bank off of it because he keeps doing it. It gets crazy views. Gotta be making some kind of money if he's buying a Lamborghini. He's a quick come up.

[D]

What the.

[B]

But I was like, dude, the other day I was thinking like, I wonder where that car ever ended up. And then that video popped up like a couple days later. Yeah, dude, look at this.

[A]

Is it the same wheels?

[B]

Yes, it's my old car, bro.

[E]

He's got some kind of. Did you. Do you have lighting in there?

[A]

I missed that car. That was a great car.

[D]

What?

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

You think you're.

[A]

Are you sure?

[C]

Look your up on. See if they can track it down.

[A]

Thinking about it.

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

That's.

[D]

Well, I guess I don't know if it is, but it's just cool. It's cool to know that your car is outside out there somewhere, you know?

[B]

It is out there. Yeah.

[A]

I could only dream of my GTR being driven by a guy like this

[D]

by the ASU frat leader. Your car's so lucky to get frame mogged every day. You weren't looks maxing in it and that was just unfortunate. You weren't doing it justice.

[B]

I wasn't.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

It needed a new owner.

[A]

What do you guys think about that looks maxing thing?

[B]

You know, I think it, it's just showing like the insecurity I feel like of that generation, like trying to like go to, to the absolute extremes of hitting your face with a hammer to do that. And I get like, there's something about like personal health and getting in better shape and like doing everything you can to like, I don't know, feel better, look better. But like, I don't know. When Dalton saying get in a nose surgery, like, who are you trying to impress if it's collapse like whole thing of like looking better. But Dalton's already a good looking kid. He's a good looking kid. Chill.

[A]

I'd agree though.

[B]

He's a good looking kid and he doesn't need like to like change anything.

[A]

Same with like that clap dude. Like no homo, but like he's a pretty obviously a good looking guy. You're already better looking than 99% of people. The fact that you think you got to fudgeing, get a jaw reconstruction surgery and all this other bullshit. You clearly have some body dysmorphia going on or something. But like in my day that'd be Pretty gay to do the kids, like, you know, like in our generation, like, doing that kind of stuff is just like. That's not.

[C]

But at this point, continuing to do it is why he's famous.

[A]

No, for sure.

[C]

So, like.

[B]

Yeah, I think it's just like that's gonna pull. That he sets for. For kids and, you know, I think he's doing obviously a lot of good of like telling kids to get in the gym and like, do all these. No, for sure.

[A]

That kind of stuff. I don't know.

[B]

Actually looking better and if you get more or help you with chicks or confidence or whatever, like, to each their own there. But I guess to have to like, go under the knife. But I mean, honestly, women have been doing it for.

[A]

Yeah. And that's where I need to clarify when I say it's kind of gay to do. That's probably not the right. Right word. I mean it as. Caring that much about your looks is kind of a feminine thing. Like, if you care that much about your looks, like, it's kind of a feminine thing to do, in my opinion.

[B]

It is interesting, though. I mean, obviously, like, chicks have been getting plastic surgery for.

[E]

But I think that's. That's kind of more the social norm for. For chicks. Whereas, like, guys, you're not going to go to a plastic surgery off. Like, the norm isn't go to a plastic surgery office and get a nose job, get jaw filler, get all this other stuff. I think it is other places.

[B]

I think it's definitely less talked about, but maybe done. But guys don't admit it.

[A]

Ryan, would you get a nose job and some jaw surgery and all that?

[D]

No, I probably need both, but no, I'm. I'm good. I'd maybe take. I was thinking about taking like peptides or something to get a little more jacked. I think that'd be fun. Dalton shake his head because he's probably done the research on it. I've done no research. I have no idea what the. But like, I don't know. That's the thing. Like, you say it's a social norm now. You look at everybody on Instagram as shredded and you're like, oh, that'd be pretty.

[A]

I mean, I could understand getting on like, testosterone or peptides or like that. That's. That's way different than getting for sure face reconstruction surgery. Yeah.

[C]

But.

[D]

Yeah, I don't know that. That's maybe something I'd look into, but I'd be honest about it.

[B]

Doing steroids, though, you're looking at it like steroids aren't good for you, but you want to look better, feel bad.

[D]

That's why I wouldn't do steroids self, bro.

[A]

I would 100 get on steroids before I did a face reconstruction surgery. Would you over face reconstruction surgery?

[B]

I don't know. It's two different ways to look at it. Because, like, steroids could mess up your, like, fertility.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

But I feel this reconstruction surgery is permanent. You can hop on steroids, run them for a few years, or run them for even six months.

[E]

I feel like you get on like, testosterone that is way less risky and way more like, beneficial to your health than you getting like, plastic surgery to have a different nose or jaw or something like that.

[A]

Hopping on tests can be good for you, like, especially as you age because your testosterone as a male naturally declines.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Not before, though.

[A]

Yeah, not before. Like, if you're 16, you shouldn't be hopping on test, right?

[B]

Yeah. I guess I was just thinking as far as like the. The risk factor of it, but that makes sense.

[E]

But it's also like you're going. You're doing any kind of surgery, there is inherent risk in that. Like, you could. They could up the anesthesia and you'd have some other kind of complication from that.

[B]

Well, I got up from my last surgery and I. The rest of my life.

[E]

You're still doing. You're still dealing with it, what, two years later?

[B]

Yeah. Scar tissue in my stomach.

[D]

They figured out what it is.

[B]

Dude, I've seen so many doctors. I've done every single test, and nobody has a solid answer for me besides for scar tissue after the appendix surgery.

[D]

Wow.

[B]

And the only way to remove scar

[D]

tissue is more surgery.

[B]

Is more surgery, which could lead to more complications. More scar tissue.

[D]

Jesus.

[B]

Yeah. If you can avoid surgery, avoid surgery at all costs.

[D]

What do you think of.

[C]

That's why I don't go to the doctor.

[D]

You can't get any bad news from the doc if you never go.

[C]

No news is good news.

[B]

You need to go to the chiropractor after your last jump. The jump heard around the world.

[D]

24.

[A]

8 million views total on short form content.

[B]

Yeah, we posted it on. On Instagram, YouTube shorts, and it got 14 million views in like a couple of days. And then we posted it again with the inside camera angle and the jump, and it's got 15.5 million views in a day and a half.

[D]

Did Ram ever comment back on it?

[B]

They liked it.

[D]

They liked it.

[B]

They liked the post.

[D]

Okay, well, that's a good start.

[A]

Like, probably can't get Too, too behind it being.

[C]

They should send us a fleet.

[A]

They should send us a new tx. That'd be good.

[C]

Like a couple TRXs, couple hellcats.

[D]

We got about 10 million views for them on long form and another 50

[C]

million on short form to get Ryan

[D]

another SRT by next week if they've sent us one.

[E]

I mean really, I think us doing that jump just showcases how tough those trucks really are.

[C]

We broke it.

[E]

Yeah, we broke it. But the suspension, the suspension is still fine. You know, the frame flexed a little bit and, and kinked the cab. There's less broken than I would have, would have expected.

[A]

I'm so impressed with how flat it jumped, which obviously did jump, but really couldn't have landed any better.

[D]

I was explaining that I was, I went to the bars this weekend, DT Fargo and some guy was asking me, he's like, how did you get that TRX jump so flat? Did you weight the bed? Did you do the suspension? I go, well no. You see if the jump is longer than the wheelbase of the truck. I, I sounded like I could work for fucking NASA. Like he was like, oh wow, that makes so much sense. I go, you learn that when you jump a few things with short wheelbases and then they launch.

[A]

But versus like being nose heavy and boom, boom. Like that's how you. I'm sure there's been way more damage, you know, like the bumpers, all that shit is just fine.

[B]

What is broken on it?

[D]

So we, we just ended up bringing it to a dealership because it was, it was pretty bad. So obviously the front differential is broken off from the frame, so we had to get a new one of those. The CV joints are fine, but when the front differential broke, it broke and up and probably you're driving. That was probably some of the noises that we were hearing was the drive shaft going from the transfer case to the differential that was getting all up. So basically we're taking a gamble that the transfer case is okay because that's like a seven thousand dollar fix.

[C]

Leave it.

[B]

Yeah, that's what I don't need. All wheel drive.

[D]

I said we'll hook it up and if the transfer case is, we'll, we'll go from there. You know, we'll put it in rear wheel drive and we'll go. But it, it should be fine. They're replacing all the parts, they're on order. So hopefully the price of a new Chevy or a, a new old 2003 Chevy, we'll be at back on the proper chef. A proper chef.

[B]

Damn, dude. We're gonna be into this thing. A hundred racks.

[D]

No, no, no. It'll be. I think, I think they said like five grand.

[B]

Oh, well that's good.

[D]

Still, they'll probably double it. They'll probably double it on us. Yeah, but so it's, it's, it's getting fixed.

[B]

Oh, I'm excited to get that thing back.

[D]

Do you know what I've been seeing pulling major views on Instagram, Tick tock is those Indian fellas with the wheel and they, they put it on like there's like a spinny wheel. I'll pull up a video of it here. They like launch this wheel into space.

[C]

It's like a motor that has a

[A]

solid wooden wheel on it that spins

[B]

right next to the motor and then

[A]

they put like a tire on it

[B]

and then the tire gets spinning really

[C]

fast and pull the tire off with like a stick. Like they push it off and then

[B]

the tire catches speed and it flings into like either a person that they have set up out there or like a real person. And yeah.

[A]

Damn. Getting hit by a tire at high speed not hurt.

[D]

And I really want big wrench to build us one of these. And he said he wouldn't do it cuz we're going to lose a hand. But they just get this sucker ripping.

[B]

Oh dude, this is sketchy.

[D]

And then watch.

[E]

Oh my God.

[D]

Watch it.

[C]

Boom.

[B]

Oh.

[C]

What?

[D]

This one was actually pretty mid like it rips.

[E]

But yeah, we would definitely something up that we were not trying to up.

[B]

That's space program. That's what, that's interesting thing to look up.

[D]

That's what people, people always comment on it is like this is the Indian space program because they normally they go higher. So they're like sending these tires to space. Indian air defense.

[C]

Speaking of wheels, do you think we could host or like have our own cheese wheel race down a hill?

[A]

We have a hill.

[D]

They just did one in Valley City on St. Patrick's Day.

[B]

Really?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

I would love to have seen that. Do you know what that is?

[B]

That he has a hill.

[A]

Yeah, there's a bunch of hills over

[D]

there named after a hill. Technically too, I suppose.

[B]

Didn't think of that.

[A]

Where's that based out of? Scotland. When they do the. They roll the cheese wheel down the hill and everyone's running after and they just tumble.

[E]

You guys know how much a cheese wheel costs?

[A]

Thousands.

[E]

It's like twelve hundred bucks.

[C]

We could get an artificial cheese wheel if that's the issue.

[D]

Yeah, sorry.

[C]

I think it would be fun to do it at, at the Ski hill when there's still, like, some snow. It might make the impact.

[D]

We could do it at Ben's wedding.

[C]

Oh, my God. Imagine everyone in their nice clothes chasing a boy cheese rod down the hill.

[E]

Oh, my.

[A]

How many people get, like, seriously injured?

[D]

I think it's one of those things that's so stupid that people magically don't get hurt.

[E]

Yeah, I would have, like, 17 broken bones if I did that.

[D]

No fucking way. Katn, I don't even think you're allowed to roll the cheese. It's too dangerous. But, yeah, it just seems like one of those things that they do for the last couple hundred years and no one ever gets hurt. I wonder if Frankie Le Pen has done it because Frankie Le Pen has taken some of the serious, most serious falls.

[A]

Frankie Le Pen has done some gnarly. He does gnarly every single week, week after week, for short form content.

[D]

You see him at Swamp. Swamp Fest. I wanted to call it Skank Fest, but yeah, I mean, this. I mean, this shit's crazy. He. He takes like nine good slams in this. I mean, that one was water.

[A]

Yeah, dude, the Durn Bros were here too. I honestly would really like to go to this.

[D]

Really?

[A]

Yeah, I think it'd be really fun.

[D]

Scare you like it. Like, there's beer cans flying.

[A]

It's definitely. It's definitely chaotic and could be scary. I mean, I'm not gonna be fucking trying to grind a rail in a shopping cart, but it'd be fun to just be there and be a part of it. I feel like it'd be like a step up from rednecks with Paychecks. That's true. These people are out of their mind, man. But, yeah, it's really fun. I just watched the video Thrasher made on it last night. Did you watch? I have.

[C]

I actually didn't.

[A]

It's good, but it's crazy. I mean, theirs is more pg, but yeah. Anyways, Frankie Lena, just scroll through his page, dude. He's taking a hard fall. Every single week. We talk about Gavin doing that. Frankie's done it. Does it every single week.

[B]

There he is.

[A]

Crash in different fashions. Whether he's getting punched in the face by an MMA fighter or he's just lucky.

[E]

His hinder so big he can kind of.

[A]

It's like a. It's like a pillow.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

Take some of that impact off of him.

[D]

Oh, dude, this one is insane,

[B]

dude. He has all this time to just look at this snow pile, knowing that

[C]

he thinks about it.

[B]

Yeah. He's like, all right, I Gotta just eat this fall.

[A]

How many? Dude, that's a ton of likes.

[C]

We should bring him to town, Run the Zorba swamp.

[A]

He was actually. I forgot to text him back. He was texting me not too long ago. He wanted to come back up here.

[C]

He get a couple motors.

[D]

Do what? Take a fall.

[B]

I, I.

[A]

We didn't really have a plan. He just was like, yo, we should. We should hang again. I'm sorry, Frankie, go to the Corvette one.

[B]

Something tells me this one just.

[C]

Oh. Oh, my God.

[B]

I thought.

[C]

I didn't process that was a dummy quick enough.

[D]

1.2 million likes on that.

[A]

That's a sweet Corvette.

[B]

Yeah, he's definitely mastered the art of going viral.

[D]

He's got the Rizzler.

[A]

Dude, I love the Rizzler. He is the funniest little kid. I think he's a very famous kid, but I think he lives also a rather normal life. Like, like a normal kid. Like, I think he goes to school. He lives in, like, a pretty normal neighborhood. And, like, I don't know. I love that kid, though. He's so funny. You ever see his bike, the Rizzler bike stunts show? Evan, you'd be so impressed.

[D]

Imagine saying, you live next.

[A]

I don't believe you.

[C]

Why?

[A]

Why? You don't think he's got the build

[B]

for it or what?

[C]

Oh, I've actually seen this.

[A]

Anyway, I know you guys, like, wanted me to do the one with the helmet.

[C]

I, I can't.

[A]

So, I mean, I have two more tricks. Okay, now, I will do the first two tricks, but those will be at the end. The first trick I'm gonna do is the no hander. The no hander.

[C]

I mean, one hander.

[D]

The one hander.

[A]

One hand. All right. This isn't the one I was thinking, but it's still funny. I guess. It's just him.

[C]

BMX and flip flops. Bad idea.

[B]

It's okay. You're so cute, though.

[A]

I don't care. Oh, the part one's really funny.

[D]

Okay, I'm gonna do. I'm running with you.

[B]

Go.

[A]

I'm gonna do one. I can actually do three. Okay, I'm gonna do one.

[C]

Back pedaling.

[D]

Look, I'm back pedaling.

[B]

Goes hard.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

Yeah, I'm impressed.

[A]

Yeah, he's just funny. I think all of his videos are funny. Just a cute little kid.

[B]

The Full Leaf Clover.

[A]

And he was in the wwe.

[C]

Dude.

[B]

The Rizzler.

[D]

Did you know?

[E]

Holy.

[A]

No, I'm dead serious. He had a stint in the wwe. He was in T. I think it was tna, but yeah, right here. He gets slammed down. Dude, can you believe this? He's in the. He's out there. Aew. And then look at this. Big justice comes in.

[D]

No way.

[A]

Big justice comes.

[D]

Oh, boom.

[A]

Takes him down.

[D]

Dude, that's lit.

[A]

God, I gotta get back into watching five big Booms.

[E]

I never really got into that.

[C]

I try to avoid that.

[A]

It's kind of funny in aew. Dude, I gotta get back into watching wwe. We were watching some of the highlights on our way to the racetrack yesterday in the Sprinter. Me and Evan is so funny.

[B]

Maybe that's something we could do for your bachelor party, is go to a real WWE show. Yes, that'd be fun.

[A]

But the only issue with that is I'm. I'm not in tune with, like, all the story lines and stuff going on. And there was, like, this era when it was just, like, pretty vulgar in, like, the early 2000s, and that's when I was kind of watching it. It's just more PG nowadays. Like, there was just a lot of. A lot better story lines going on back then. It was insane. Especially when you're in the fifth grade, you know? And it felt like real life. I thought it was real life.

[D]

So was it still on tv?

[A]

Yeah, it was on tv. It'd play on well. Monday Night Raw, that was on USA Network 8 to 10. Thursday night was ECW, and then Friday night was Smackdown.

[D]

What's different about it now? Because I. I basically watch Logan Paul's clips. Like, I'm not even really.

[A]

I don't know if it's. Well, it's just, like, pg. It's just like more of the storylines aren't as. They aren't as insane.

[C]

They don't use.

[B]

Vince McMahon isn't cheating on his wife in front of her getting pills.

[C]

They don't use, like, props anymore, right? Like. Like, chairs and stuff. I mean, there's probably still some props.

[A]

There's some. There's some insane athleticism, like, jumping off the ropes and, like, slams and. But no, like, there's just crazy story lines. Like, there was this one storyline where Vince McMahon, the CEO, was, like, drugging his wife, and then he was having an affair with one of the divas. It's just. No, it's.

[D]

It's.

[A]

It's not even, like. It's just, like, a storyline that was on tv, and then they're, like, pushing around his actual wife in this wheelchair, and she's, like, pretending like she's, like, sedated.

[D]

It was so wild. Holy.

[A]

It was wild, man. It was just like there's so many crazy things. It was fun.

[D]

I feel like there's glory days of everything. Like, that was the glory days of that. There's glory days of YouTube, you know, where, like, people could just get away with more crazy. Like, when you're watching OG Danny Duncan pranking people in stores, like, that was legendary. Now kind of lost its luster because so many people do it. But, I mean, you know, like, there was glory days where you're like, dude, I can't believe they were able to do that.

[A]

The WWE in that era, to me, was the best era, because that's like, when I was at that time in my life. Whereas I'm sure there's kids watching today that think this is the best era or whatever. And then, you know, when they grow up, they're gonna be like, ah, like back then, like, you always look back on the past and almost, like, glorify it. You glorify the past. You do you think of it better than it actually was.

[D]

I will say, as far as, like, automotive group YouTubers go, right now, I think. I think we're at a glory day. Like, there's a lot of good YouTubers out there right now. Like, you can log on and get some pretty dang good videos from YouTubers, which is pretty cool, I think.

[B]

Yeah, I agree.

[A]

Yeah, I definitely, like, I don't want

[D]

to be like, oh, us.

[B]

I agree.

[D]

But, like, it's us.

[B]

It depends how you look at it, because I saw a video the other day comparing, like, 2016 to 2026. So, like, 10 years. And like, 2016 was, like, the first year of, like, the automotive YouTube kind of getting some stride and people, you know, getting like, their first cars and doing, like, the first builds. And it was like, the first time that people had, like, seen certain stuff on the Internet.

[A]

You take a Lamborghini in the snow, and it's wild.

[B]

Yeah, that's. That's like a super viral idea. And now it's like the complete opposite. Like, if you do that, you're just like everyone else. So, yeah, you're, like, forced to think outside the box more.

[D]

And that's what I mean. I think, like, you're getting people that they're not like, oh, I'm just gonna go take my stirrado around in the snow. They're like, okay, I'm gonna jump my strato 60ft and like, be, you know, like, people do more extreme. Matt Armstrong is rebuilding a Bugatti.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Not just a normal car.

[B]

The level's definitely been raised. Yeah, that's for sure. All right, boys. Well, good pod.

[D]

Yeah, good stuff, boys.

[B]

I think we covered a lot there.

[D]

No plugs from Ken today.

[E]

No free plugs. Unless we get some. Unless we get some ads.

[D]

Oh, we do have ads. We got to read those.
