This podcast is brought to you by Aura. Imagine waking up to find your bank account drained, bills for loans you never took out, a warrant for your arrest, all because someone committed a crime in your name. It sounds like a nightmare, but for millions of people each year, it's reality. And here's the scariest part. By the time companies tell you your data was stolen, it's already been nearly a year. 277 days. That's how long on average hackers have to use your Social Security number, open accounts, take out loans, and destroy your credit before you even know you've been exposed. By the time you get that breach notification email, the damage is done. Your identity stolen, your financial future at risk, and the company that lost your data. They'll just apologize and move on. Hackers aren't waiting. Why are you? This can all sound really scary. Which is why I'm so glad we're partnering with Aura. Hackers don't wait, so why should you? Aura monitors the dark web 247 for your phone number, email and Social Security number because the moment they show up for sale, criminals are ready to use them. If Aura detects your info, you'll get an instant alert so you can act before the damage is done. What if your identity is already stolen? Criminals can take out loans, max out credit cards and vanish. That's why Aura provides up to $5 million in identity theft insurance and a US based fraud resolution team that works around the clock to shut down fraud fast and get your life back on track. Your personal data is a goldmine for hackers and Aura helps lock it down with a VPN for private browsing data broker.

[Ryan]

To realize the future America needs, we.

[Gavin]

Understand what's needed from us to face.

[Ryan]

Each threat head on.

[Mike]

We've earned our place in the fight.

[Gavin]

For our nation's future.

[Ryan]

We are Marines. We were made for this.

[Dalton]

Dude siege and I were sitting here today and the Airbnb host walked in.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Evan]

The owner, a baddie?

[Dalton]

No, they were not baddies, but they were equally as rattled to see us here.

[Ryan]

They were scared.

[Evan]

Like the owner.

[Ryan]

They were startled. They were startled by Ryan because he approached him as if they were intruders.

[Dalton]

Yeah, I told him to get the out of my house.

[Gavin]

I told.

[Evan]

Did they say.

[Dalton]

I don't know. They were just like, oh, I thought you guys were checking out. I know nothing about our length of departure or how long we're staying here. So I was like, I don't know. I think we're here till tomorrow. And she's like, okay. And then she scurried out.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I was, I was thinking, like, we were going to be in one of those videos where, like, the Airbnb host is, you know, doing some weird stuff. You ever seen those? Like, there's.

[Evan]

It is a very strange concept. Like, do Airbnb hosts have to leave? Like, isn't that.

[Ryan]

No, like, probably not.

[Evan]

So, like, Airbnb I think, is like that where. Vrbo, they do have to leave. But Airbnb started as in like, just like a bed and breakfast where you come and live at somebody's house or you stay at somebody's house.

[Ryan]

They have to make you breakfast.

[Evan]

I think so. I think that's part of the contract.

[Ryan]

Yeah. So, like, I've seen these videos. I. I just won technically online. It was like, these girls, they're probably in high school and they're staying at some Airbnb. And you can tell it's not staged because it's just a shitty video. Like, she was on Snapchat. She's like, we found a hidden room and there was, like, this rug and they had, like, pulled it, but it just was going basically down to, like, the basement slash crawl space. But there was, like, a rug in front of it, and they somehow found it. And they're like, look, we're going to go down, see? And, like, they start going about halfway down and this lady's like, sorry, sorry, sorry. The host had been hiding down there in the basement. It was just some woman sitting in the basement or crawl space or whatever you want to call it of the house. Just in the dark and, like, it scares the crap out of the girls. They run out. And then like, I watched this little thing after, and they're like, yeah, like, the cops came and.

[Evan]

And did what?

[Dalton]

Is it illegal?

[Ryan]

They did a bad job explaining or. I just can't remember. But basically, yeah, the cops came and I have no idea. But you just got to wonder, what was the host doing hiding under there?

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And that means that someone probably, like, helped her hide under there. Like, if she's in there. And then they put the rug back over the top. Like, maybe she was waiting till they'd leave and then was, like, going to try and steal some shit.

[Evan]

Maybe.

[Ryan]

I don't know. It's just very creepy. Or she gets off on, like, being down there while people are.

[Mike]

Or she just needed to make some money and had nowhere else to go.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that too.

[Dalton]

Just living in the crawl space, too.

[Evan]

But yeah, I mean, if she. Yeah, it depends. Like, how weird.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it had me thinking about that last night. I couldn't really sleep that well last night. And there's all these room. This is a massive house.

[Dalton]

Yeah. Good job.

[Evan]

Easily the coolest.

[Ryan]

Easily the coolest airbnb we've ever had. It's like this huge house from what, the 70s, late 70s. It was built in. In on this mountain. But there's rooms that have, like, keypad deadlocks on them, and it just says owners only. And when I was laying there in this massive fricking bedroom that I'm sleeping in, I'm thinking, what if the owners are, like, in there right now or something? You know, like. Cause after watching that. That video, what do you think they do to you?

[Evan]

Hanging out?

[Ryan]

I don't know, dude.

[Evan]

In their closet.

[Ryan]

Well, then I start thinking, I'm like, well, we're in Colorado. Remember there was that weird thing that happened with JonBenet Ramsey. Like, maybe you've never heard that. No, you heard it? Of course Evan has. He's heard of all the tragic. Yeah, monstrosities. What does happen? There was like, this little girl. This happened in, like, the 90s. She was like a pageant girl. She was maybe, like, I don't know exactly her age. She was maybe 7, little, but lived in a very wealthy neighborhood. Big house. Anyways, I guess she was kidnapped and killed. Like, in the middle. No, in their house. Like, someone snuck in and they never found out who killed her. And, like, there's still, like, documentaries and like, some of the people accuse that, like, maybe the father did it.

[Evan]

So who's John?

[Ryan]

That's the girl.

[Evan]

The little girl. Oh, that's the girl's name?

[Mike]

Yeah, that's like French or something.

[Ryan]

But, yeah, it's just a really tragic, sad thing.

[Mike]

I mean, John does never figured it out.

[Ryan]

And I'm pretty sure they're still trying to sell the house to this day.

[Evan]

Oh, really?

[Ryan]

I think they ended up tearing it down maybe.

[Dalton]

That's probably, like, worst case Ontario, if you, like, invested in a house and then something happens and somebody dies in it.

[Ryan]

Well, no one ever wants to buy a house that there's been a murder at. It's just bad energy.

[Dalton]

Wait, would you live in a murder house? Since you kind of like murder stories, so would you like having like, oh, this. This house comes with a story?

[Mike]

I don't think I would say I like that at all. Definitely don't like that. But I don't know if it would bother me that much for real if.

[Ryan]

There was a horrific murder.

[Mike]

Like, if I felt like the locks were secure and like, whoever caused the first murders wasn't going to come back and murder me. Like, I don't know, crazy stuff happen.

[Ryan]

You don't feel like there'd be, like, a bad energy to it?

[Mike]

I mean, ghosts aren't real. We've been down this before. Like, it's just a thing that happened. I mean, think of. Would you drive down a highway? There was a car accident on.

[Evan]

It is a crazy con. Like, the dude tweaks over so much stuff.

[Mike]

Like, would you go to a hospital that someone passed away in?

[Dalton]

Like, oh, hospitals give me the heebie jeebies.

[Gavin]

I mean, that's different.

[Ryan]

Okay, so that's different.

[Gavin]

I wouldn't live in. I wouldn't buy a house that someone got murdered in. Yeah, because I would buy a house that someone died in. Died in. Or maybe even multiple people died in. But, like, not murders.

[Mike]

If I could save a bag, I would save a bag to live in a murder House for sure.

[Evan]

My parents old house had the lady before died in the house. And they always thought that it was haunted because one time they showed up after being gone for a week and the microwave was running.

[Ryan]

That's whack. That's.

[Evan]

That is what the microwave was running.

[Ryan]

How long they set the timer for?

[Evan]

I don't know.

[Ryan]

Fucking one week.

[Evan]

Yeah. I don't know. And then another time they were in there and they'd been there for like five years or so. And I think, like, some picture or something fell off the wall that had been hanging there since they, like, moved in. Just randomly fell off the wall. And then she died in the laundry room. And something happened in the laundry room. I can't remember.

[Ryan]

How'd she die? Had a heart attack.

[Evan]

Yeah, I think she. I think she just had like a heart attack.

[Ryan]

And that was in their house in Fargo?

[Evan]

No, in DL.

[Ryan]

Oh, right, right, right.

[Dalton]

My old neighbor died at the bowling alley.

[Evan]

At the bowling alley?

[Dalton]

At the bowling alley. I think about every time we go bowling, he was there. He was an avid bowler. He bowled a perfect game. Went into the bathroom to take a pee, died.

[Evan]

Shut up.

[Gavin]

That is a 300.

[Evan]

No.

[Dalton]

Bowled a 300.

[Evan]

What?

[Dalton]

And his buddies, they were celebrating. He's like, I got to go to the bathroom.

[Ryan]

Crazy.

[Dalton]

Walks in there, dies.

[Ryan]

At least he went on top.

[Evan]

Dude actually went out doing what? There has to be something to be said about him getting so excited. It put him into, like, cardiac arrest.

[Gavin]

I agree.

[Ryan]

There was nothing left to live for after that.

[Evan]

Perfect bowling. Yeah. That guy really did go out on top.

[Ryan]

We're pretty big bowlers over here, but actually happen.

[Evan]

And unfortunately, our bowling alley is going to be, like, torn down.

[Gavin]

Really?

[Evan]

Yeah. That's the only thing that we have to do in town.

[Ryan]

I know. In the winter, maybe we'll be able to go over there again and wreck it a little more.

[Evan]

I think we should try. I think we should try and like, buy some of the lanes and put the lanes up at the shop.

[Ryan]

The problem is, like, whenever we invest in something that we normally go to go do, we don't end up using.

[Dalton]

It or it takes over our life for like a month. Like the pinball machine.

[Gavin]

Right. Or even the pool table. The pool table got a lot of use at one point. Not so much anymore. We do love.

[Ryan]

It would be pretty lit to have a bowling lane, couple bowling alleys.

[Evan]

I feel like that's the ultimate.

[Ryan]

Whole crew comes over. Yeah, that'd be sick.

[Evan]

Yeah. So we're currently sitting in Keystone, Colorado right now. We've been on like the last 10 days traveling all over the place. Started in Vegas and then from there we made our way to Salt Lake City. And then from Salt Lake City to Moab.

[Gavin]

Dumont Sand Dunes. Don't forget about that.

[Evan]

Dumont Sand Dunes. And then from Moab to Keystone, Keystone to Denver tomorrow. It's hard to even remember, like all the places that we've been.

[Mike]

We should get some omelets when we get to Denver.

[Evan]

You think so?

[Mike]

I've never had a Denver omelette and I feel like that's the perfect place to have my first Denver omelette.

[Ryan]

What is it?

[Mike]

Peppers in it?

[Ryan]

It's just a standard omelette name. Like if you go to get breakfast, say you go to the cornfield down the road from the shop, they have a Denver omelette.

[Mike]

No, but it's like, it's just like a ham and cheese omelette with peppers.

[Ryan]

I think that's, it's a standard name. It's probably invented in Denver.

[Mike]

I've read it on the menu for 30 years. Never got one.

[Evan]

Well, let's get you one tomorrow.

[Dalton]

Yeah, it's actually been pretty fun because we've been doing this cheap car challenge which you guys will see next week.

[Evan]

Couple weeks. It'll be a while. Couple weeks, It'll be a while. It's, it's hands down the most footage we have ever filmed that will go into a video. There's going to be a two part series and each video is going to be anywhere from an hour to two hours.

[Dalton]

Yeah, it's gonna be insane.

[Ryan]

Like it is so much because we.

[Evan]

Have three cameras going. Well, three cameras plus three GoPros. So six cameras going non stop. Pretty much, yeah. And we've been filming it for the last week.

[Ryan]

It's not even necessarily the cameras. Like that's pretty standard for how many cameras we normally have at a shoot. But what it is is we have three different groups doing three different activities. And like each group side of this could be its own. Probably two videos for how much stuff we've done. So then you got three of those groups and you're trying to condense it into a two parter just because it totally could be a three parter.

[Evan]

It could.

[Ryan]

We just think dragging out three weeks of, of one, that's almost a month. And I don't know, we just don't want to. We just want to condense it as much as possible and make it as good as possible. But I think it's going to be insane. It's Going to be a movie.

[Evan]

Yeah, it's going to be so good. Dalton just said that it's 700 gigabytes.

[Gavin]

Of footage, almost a TV.

[Evan]

700.

[Mike]

This morning someone said 500. And Dalton's like, Ah, I don't think it's 500, but it is seven.

[Gavin]

That's a lot.

[Evan]

That's. That's probably fifth, 75 hours worth of footage, I bet. Yeah. So, yeah, so it's, it's not going to be. It's not going to be out for a little bit.

[Ryan]

Like, it's just been madness. It's been like you can't account for what's about to happen to you. And were in these cheap shitty ass cars trying to drive across the country for yourself.

[Dalton]

You guys drove that minivan.

[Ryan]

Anyways, it's not. I don't want to spoil anything, but.

[Evan]

So we travel like a lot, right? I mean, this year alone, we've been in Utah, Florida, Florida, Texas, California, California, then Nevada, Utah. Anyway, so like, we've been traveling so much, right? And we do. We just travel a bunch for the videos. But this is like such a different way of capturing the travel because when we're traveling, we're not filming like hopping in the truck and driving to the next spot or loading up the trailers.

[Ryan]

And hopping on a plane.

[Evan]

Yeah, we're hopping on a plane. Really? But this is like we are filming every step of the way, dude. And it is happening. And that's exactly why is because, like, if the cameras aren't rolling.

[Mike]

Mr. Shredded, how nice of you to join us.

[Gavin]

Come on.

[Ryan]

Showers.

[Ken]

Three weeks. I know. I'm feeling good. What's up, you guys?

[Evan]

If the cameras aren't rolling, you miss something because something happens every five minutes.

[Ryan]

Our team's been pulled over twice already.

[Dalton]

But he was in the back of a cop car.

[Ryan]

Yeah, Spenny was in the back.

[Ken]

They put you in the back. Oh, my God.

[Ryan]

Canadian.

[Evan]

Really?

[Ryan]

They were threatening deportation. I gave the guy a couple hundred bucks and we were on our way.

[Ken]

You paid him off?

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Unreal.

[Evan]

And also we're just together, like our team is together, like the whole day, all night, and then getting through whatever we're getting through together. Right. And so it's been some real bonding time with the boys.

[Ken]

Some amazing team bonding. I don't thank you guys for taking out our front seat because me and Ken got a lot closer.

[Ryan]

You're welcome. You're welcome. Something for these guys to look forward. Yeah, there's been a lot of pranks. There's been a lot of pranks let me tell you, traveling across country and our piece of crap car, I just.

[Dalton]

Look 1300 miles, we've.

[Ryan]

Yeah, you get used to it pretty quick, actually. And then, like, you just, you know, you're chilling in the thing.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And then I hopped in the truck with Gavin for like, a brief stint just to go. So I was like, shit, dude, same.

[Evan]

My car's brakes got so hot because of something that happened before. I blew the brakes. And then when we were driving through the mountain pass, the brakes just completely wore down to the rotors, right. So the. The brake pins were just going straight onto the rotor. And so Gav goes, dude, I got to take a dump. I got to take a dump.

[Ken]

Gotta take a poop, fellas.

[Evan]

And I'm like. And. And we're like an hour from Keystone here, and I'm like, bro, all right, all right. Because we have to fill our car up like once a year. So, like, we're not pulling into gas stations very often, right? And I'm like, all right, we'll pull over. So we pull in and I hop out. I run in to go and get a water, and Ken comes in with his phone like this. He goes, dude, you gotta come out here and see this. And I go, oh, no, that's never good.

[Ken]

Not good.

[Evan]

And I come out and I walk out the doors. The doors open up of the gas station, and I see smoke billowing out from behind our car. Keep in mind, our car is sitting next to the gas pump.

[Ryan]

Oh, my God.

[Evan]

And I'm like, oh, fuck, this thing's about to start on fire, right? So I run over there. Sure enough, the brakes got so hot, they melted the valve stem inside of our wheel. Never heard of anything happening like that. That just also shows the year of our vehicle. It's from the 80s, but of course it is.

[Ken]

She made it here. She's all the way in Keystone.

[Evan]

So the wheels got so hot that it melted the valve stem. And then the valve stem was just cooked along with my rear brakes that were cooked. Right. And so I, like, quickly, like, drove it away on a flat tire. So it didn't start on fire next to a gas pump. Wasn't trying to be that guy. And then we were like calling everywhere. Cause, like, every store was closed. It was Saturday night at like 7 or 6 o'clock, and thankfully Walmart came through. But. And they were like, yeah, we've never seen this before. We've changed a ton of tires and we've never seen this.

[Ken]

They were shocked.

[Evan]

Yeah, they were shocked. But I was driving the GMC just like down the road to Walmart, and I was like, this is the nicest vehicle I have ever driven before. I was like, I can't believe this thing has power. Like, it gets you up and going and you're not worried about a car coming from half a mile away, rear ending you.

[Mike]

Yeah, we really cannot relate because our vehicle. Nice.

[Ryan]

It drives so nice. Yours drives really nice.

[Evan]

It rides.

[Ryan]

We got a bent wheel. We got a bent wheel. So you can imagine what that might.

[Evan]

Have had something to do with what we.

[Ryan]

70 mile an hour, all the way across the country. It wasn't good to begin with, but the bent wheel, that's when it really got bad.

[Ken]

Well, now you know how I felt for the past seven years driving a first gen, man, you kind of just get used to it. So that's why I made it work.

[Ryan]

That's what I kind of said is you just get. Eventually you're pretty used to it, more chilling.

[Ken]

But then once you get something new, it's like a whole another world. It's the best thing ever. It feels like you're driving a Cadillac every time you hop in something else.

[Evan]

Yeah, yeah. And Gab did say that. Cuz I was like, dude, I just. I can't look at how nice this steering wheel is. And my steering wheel in our cheap car is like this big, right? Like, they used to make steering wheels way bigger than they need to be. So I hopped in and it felt like I was driving like an F1 car. Like, because the wheel was so little. Yeah. I was like, dude, I feel like I'm driving a race car right now.

[Ken]

Steering a boat. Right there, man. Steering a boat.

[Evan]

But Gav was like, dude, this is how I felt when I got a new truck. I've been driving that piece. Well, you didn't say piece of shit. I just said, hey, easy on that. The first gen for the last eight years.

[Ken]

Well, seriously, I mean, I mean, that's the great thing. If you're 16 years old and you got a crappy truck right now. Appreciate the heck out of it. And keep loving that because, you know, you'll get used to it. And then when you get a newer truck in 10 years, it's gonna be the best thing ever, fellas.

[Evan]

It's all about perspective.

[Ken]

Exactly.

[Ryan]

I was like, I thought my first vehicle was, like, crappy too. But looking back after all the actual crappy vehicles we've, you know, bought and destroyed, it was an awesome, like, really nice vehicle.

[Evan]

The one that you got rear ended.

[Ryan]

In The Jeep, I rear ended the second.

[Evan]

Oh yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

I didn't get rent. I. I did the rear ending.

[Evan]

Yeah, that's right.

[Ryan]

Yeah. 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee thing was honestly awesome. But yeah, you just don't appreciate it when you're young. You're like, man, this thing's old. You know, the thing was probably what, 20 years old at the time, But I thought it was crappy, but I just didn't know, right? You got your whole life to get nice cars, so you got to just appreciate the shitty ones because it makes the nice ones.

[Ken]

Feels like it's heavy every day. I mean, I hop in the 20, I pop in my 2013 comments and I am seriously just electrified every time. Dude, I should not be able to own that truck either. I'll tell you guys that right now.

[Dalton]

Wait, why?

[Ken]

Cuz it's so much power, dude. I mean, every turn I'm just putting it sideways, blowing smoke all over the place.

[Mike]

Doesn't it have less power than your first gen?

[Ken]

Currently it does, but it's probably sitting right around 400, which is still plenty enough to get yourself in trouble.

[Ryan]

It probably can put it down though, you know, not that his first gen can. Yeah, your first gen is probably way more of a death trap.

[Mike]

Oh it once, hey, once you learn how to shift, you'll be putting the power down.

[Ken]

You keep giving me so much crap for that, man. I feel like I'm a decent manual.

[Mike]

Everyone has seen the videos of you trying trying to shift.

[Ken]

Well, I mean the first couple tries was a little wonky, but I got the hang of it.

[Dalton]

This podcast is brought to you by Aura. By the time you hear about a data breach, your information has already been exposed for months. On average, companies take 277 days to report a breach. That's nine months where hackers have access to your personal data, your name, address, phone number, even your Social Security number before you even know it's out there. Think about it. Nine months is enough time for criminals to open accounts in your name, rack up debt and disappear, all while you're left dealing with the mess. And when the company finally tells you it's too late, the damage is already done. Data breaches aren't slowing down, they're getting bigger, and the delays in reporting them aren't helping right now. Your personal information could already be on the dark web and you wouldn't even know it. How long do you want to wait before taking action? That's why we're thrilled to partner with Aura. Aura monitors the dark web for users, phone numbers, emails and Social Security numbers, delivering real time alerts if any suspicious activity is detected. Additionally, Aura provides up to $5 million in identity theft insurance, offering a robust safety net in the event of a worst case scenario.

[Evan]

She's so like exaggerated.

[Ken]

It feels like you literally gave me a race car. Of course I'm gonna go ham on that Bad girl.

[Dalton]

Fair enough.

[Evan]

Of course. Yeah, that's true.

[Gavin]

I. I understand you because, like, whenever I start driving spiritedly, everything's out the window.

[Ken]

It's just a free spirit, man. It's not even cabin driving anymore.

[Gavin]

Like, you can't.

[Mike]

Who is it.

[Ken]

Behind the wheel?

[Dalton]

Wait, Gabs. So now that you've been driving this diesel car, are you feeling like you want a car now? Like you've been a truck guy?

[Ken]

Oh, dude, I am hooked on D300 Mercedes for life now, man. You really can't beat that motor. It's a million mile motor and it's in car form. So it's basically earlier. It's the earlier version of a 12 valve. It's how I like to look at it. Is it kind of a lot less power off the gate, but you could just turn it up by the pump and she's ready to rip.

[Ryan]

I will say, when you guys pulled up in your freaking 1980s Mercedes diesel car, you weren't surprised. I wasn't. I wasn't that surprised. I was like, of course. This guy really must be a good talker to get these guys to do this. But I didn't think you were gonna make it even halfway to where we're going. And it has surprised me in that fashion.

[Ken]

Thank you.

[Ryan]

I cannot believe that it's actually still running. I thought it was just gonna be a nightmare for you guys. Like, you're constantly going to be breaking down.

[Mike]

I mean, they kind of have been.

[Ken]

No, no, not really, though.

[Evan]

The motor. Strong. The motor.

[Ken]

Strong. The motor.

[Ryan]

And so, I mean, that's pretty awesome. I'm impressed. I'm impressed. I was wrong. I was wrong.

[Ken]

Thank you, brother.

[Evan]

Yeah. I don't know. Like, Gavin just, like, took the reins, and me and Ken, like, let him.

[Ken]

We checked out a couple other cars and we hit. Yeah. That just was complete jump.

[Evan]

We had two terrible options. I'm going to be honest.

[Dalton]

What were the other cars you were thinking?

[Evan]

Dude, we were. We were looking at a. Actually the same Jeep that CJ used to have it. Like a 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee. But we showed up. The kid was a sub. He couldn't believe that we were there to buy it. He was so surprised when we showed up. The first thing I asked him was, do you think we should buy this thing? And the kid selling it goes.

[Ken]

It was not for sure.

[Ryan]

Not a good. Not a good.

[Evan]

And we. And we hopped in it and it was just like the classic lifted Jeep. And it would kind of just like, track. Yeah.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Evan]

It was on a 4 inch lift. And it would kind of just like track over. You know, you. You think that you're driving straight, and then next thing you know, it's like. Yeah. And then it's like kind of got a little bit of roll to it. And it shifted terribly. Yeah. So it was like, all right, are we taking this one? Or the 1980s Mercedes?

[Ken]

Which was meant when we started with it.

[Ryan]

I mean, besides some good condition, dude.

[Evan]

I can't wait for you guys to see the guy that we bought it from.

[Ken]

Character and a half. Straight from Romania, dude. And this guy was awesome.

[Evan]

Yeah. The first thing he said when. When he hopped in the back seat.

[Dalton]

With Ken, he wouldn't let him test drive it alone.

[Ken]

Oh, wait for that.

[Evan]

No, we wanted him to come with. Oh, okay. So him and Ken hop in the back seat. I'm in the front with Gavin. And the first thing he says, we didn't ask. He goes, I never got Roadhead in this thing.

[Ken]

Out of nowhere, dude. Just out of nowhere.

[Dalton]

Not in an 80s Mercedes.

[Mike]

But I would never even consider buying it at that point.

[Evan]

Cuz he looked over at Ken and said it.

[Dalton]

Oh, maybe he was trying to get a last go.

[Evan]

That's what I was wondering. I kind of looked in the back like, what do we got going on here? Yeah, he was hilarious though.

[Ken]

Character and a half.

[Evan]

So that's why. And honestly, we were just like, ah, let's just go with the Mercedes, cuz it'll be way funnier for the video. And honestly, I kind of want to go and see that guy again. Bring him his funny bro.

[Ken]

You and I both.

[Evan]

No, no, no. Cuz we went there first and then went and looked at the other one. And then I was like, that first guy was way funnier. Let's just go. Yeah, let's go and see him again.

[Ryan]

We've met a lot of funny characters on this trip. I think one of my favorites, though, was Gavin's grandpa.

[Ken]

Grandpa Troy, man.

[Ryan]

Dude, that guy. It just makes so much sense why you are the way you are.

[Ken]

I appreciate that, man. I take a lot of honor in that.

[Ryan]

And then I don't know if I can talk about it on here, but I guess we are in Colorado. But the crates of marijuana he had.

[Evan]

Yeah, just tubs.

[Ryan]

He had tubs of it.

[Dalton]

He had more square footage dedicated to growing pot that he did for a living.

[Ken]

That's just grandpa Choi for you fellas. I mean, he's just living high on life and. Right.

[Evan]

Literally. And literally. And high on other things.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

What a character. Guy. Guy Was in great shape, though. I mean, you can tell he's. He's staying in the gym. He could ride.

[Evan]

Did you watch him ride, though? Did you watch him ride the one wheelie?

[Ryan]

Yeah, he's 60 and he's riding a three wheeler. He's doing wheelies and stuff. He's burning out. Yeah, I think that's in good shape, in my opinion.

[Ken]

He was 60 years old. He went cliff jump.

[Evan]

He likes. Text him and see if you can get that video.

[Ken]

Yeah, dude. He showed me a video from two years ago. He was up doing some cliff jumping. He's like, I could do a gainer. I was like, what are you talking. Yeah, what are you talking about? You can do a gainer? Next thing you know, he flooded.

[Gavin]

Flawless gainer.

[Ken]

Like.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Oh, dude, it was beautiful. I hear the flowing hair flowing and everything. Look at Jesus flying.

[Ryan]

He's an athlete. That is the bottom truth.

[Ken]

100. I say that's exactly where I got it from, man.

[Ryan]

I think you're gonna be like that, Gavin, just not with the marijuana.

[Ken]

Right? And I want to be in a little bit better shape. My plan is to live to at least 100.

[Evan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Mike]

Why would you even want to live that long?

[Ken]

Why not, man? I'm loving life. Keep having fun. As long as three boys are around us. Cheetah, I got it coming.

[Ryan]

This guy wants to live.

[Mike]

Have you seen the condition that most people are in after the age of 90?

[Ken]

Well, dude, I think I figured out a hack, man. I'm just going to stay in the gym and I'm going to keep a big smile on my face, and I think that's going to get me there.

[Mike]

Dude, no one's ever thought of that.

[Ken]

Well, I'm the first one then.

[Dalton]

It is true, though. All the old people that they interview in the chair, it's like, what did you do to stay so young? And they're like, oh, just smoke a cigarette and have a Diet Coke every day. Like, they're always doing stuff they aren't like, oh, I ate kale salad.

[Mike]

They look pretty rough. You know, when you get past that 80 mark. I don't know. I don't. I don't know how much pleasure there is in that.

[Ryan]

Is all your pleasure in life how you look for.

[Evan]

No, no, no.

[Ryan]

I.

[Evan]

No.

[Mike]

I mean, you can't move you. I can't even wipe your own ass. You can't feed yourself. You're crippled up.

[Ken]

And I feel like if I keep moving around enough and I keep pushing myself as hard as I keep Pushing myself.

[Mike]

You'll never make it more of that too.

[Ken]

I'm going to make it 100. I'm going to die trying.

[Ryan]

What year Gavin is built? Tough dude. He's. He's going to live.

[Ken]

Thank you, bro. Appreciate that. What you say?

[Dalton]

What year is your oldest three wheeler?

[Ken]

Oldest three wheeler is 1979.

[Dalton]

79. So you just got to make it another like 54 years.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ken]

I'll be right there with it.

[Dalton]

And then your three wheelers are 100 years old.

[Ken]

And isn't that insane to think about? I mean we're. I'm dealing with 40 years in technology. 40 year old technology and it's still just kicking ass.

[Evan]

Wow.

[Ryan]

I'm dealing with kicking your ass.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ken]

What.

[Gavin]

What year was the bike you just bought from kicked Grandpa Troy in the nuts for?

[Ken]

That's 1974 XL70, man.

[Dalton]

At least you got that to look forward to. That one's closer.

[Ken]

That's so clean.

[Gavin]

51 years old.

[Ken]

You can't kill a Honda.

[Ryan]

Thing was man.

[Evan]

A dirt bike.

[Ryan]

I think it's a nice addition to your collection.

[Ken]

I'm kind of nervous about it. Yeah. And don't have too many things with two wheels. I have a 20, 24 pit bike and I have a 1974 XL7.

[Ryan]

That 1974 XL70. When they built it, they didn't have a guy like you in mind. They didn't build guys like you back.

[Evan]

Guys like G. Back in the day.

[Ryan]

They didn't. They were just slender and. And slim.

[Ken]

They were a lot smaller. I'll tell you that.

[Ryan]

Man. They didn't have weight rooms like and protein powder.

[Ken]

Just not built to take a fall. I'm definitely going to see what kind of falls that thing can take. I'll tell you that. Probably tomorrow.

[Ryan]

Bike's going to snap in too.

[Mike]

He's going to be so twisted up. I'm worried that it's going to get stuck in you. You're going to stand up to get off it.

[Ken]

I hope that doesn't happen.

[Mike]

Does have a wide seat. Has a wide seat. You should be all right.

[Ken]

Wide load on there. Yeah.

[Ryan]

Yeah. So we're basically on our final stretch of this trip though. The 10 day long trip. So tomorrow we'll wake up and we will drive to Gavin's house in Denver. And then it's gonna end with a demo derby.

[Evan]

And the winner gets to drive through the double wide, right?

[Ken]

No driving through my double wide, please, fellas.

[Gavin]

Dude, that's humble the bow.

[Ken]

Dude, that's my humble abode.

[Ryan]

What does the Winner get though. Because technically. Oh, you do have something.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Okay. Perfect. Perfect.

[Gavin]

Nice.

[Dalton]

But you already got it for yourself or we.

[Evan]

Well, no, no, no.

[Gavin]

I mean I got it.

[Evan]

We just gotta pick it up.

[Gavin]

Going too in depth on that. But basically your car is made of a thousand percent steel.

[Evan]

Thank you.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Let's not forget about the bull bar. The other team.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Evan]

That is actually uncalled for. That's my biggest one. I don't know if that's legal.

[Dalton]

We can deal with that bull bar all week.

[Ryan]

We're going to weld like a bunch of things on it.

[Mike]

Like let's break out the weld hammer's.

[Ryan]

Going to come up.

[Gavin]

Yeah, right.

[Ryan]

Cut the car in half.

[Gavin]

What do you mean, Ryan? The bull bar is going to give you guys issues or.

[Dalton]

Yeah, what? Like how it just. It extends the car?

[Gavin]

I've been dealing with this bull bar all week.

[Evan]

What do you mean?

[Dalton]

Benny piled it up and blood blew out our radiator and stuff. And I don't know.

[Ken]

I think if we want to make it fair, we have to take your bull bar off or we all get bull bars.

[Dalton]

You have to take your bumpers off then. Dude. Yours is bull bar on the back metal bumper.

[Mike]

I'm on the most disadvantaged team and I think it's legit because they bought the car the way that it is, which makes it.

[Evan]

Everyone has suffered in their own way.

[Mike]

We have not suffered one bit.

[Ryan]

Are you ready? Why are we supposed to feel bad for you?

[Mike]

I don't think I was asking anyone to feel bad for us. I said you have an advantage because of a bull bar. That's all.

[Ken]

But you know you're done for in the demo.

[Mike]

No, that's what you think.

[Dalton]

I got the driver mod demo derby.

[Mike]

He does aim for the weak points.

[Dalton]

Aim for the weak points to fight with the back of the car, not with the front. There's some things there for sure. But actually, that reminds me, I got to figure I got to take our crash sensor out. Yeah, that'd be a shame. Yeah.

[Mike]

We do got a airbag delete kits for the whole. Well, you don't have to worry about that.

[Ken]

Exactly. I hate to tell you, but that 80s Mercedes doesn't really have many weak points up. So good luck finding them.

[Ryan]

Things gonna have like one ding in it at the end of the thing.

[Ken]

I'm gonna be taking it to church. Exactly.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Evan]

Gavin's planning on daily in this thing.

[Mike]

Afterwards if it's still running.

[Ken]

You better bet you're gonna see me in church on Sunday. In that thing, I'll tell you that. Right.

[Ryan]

Well, we're all gonna pack up and leave. We're gonna hop on a flight and leave, and you're gonna have three cars sitting at your place. So you can do whatever you want.

[Evan]

Scrap.

[Dalton]

You do get the scrap metal.

[Ken]

Do I really?

[Ryan]

Or you can drive them.

[Mike]

I think you should build a three wheeler jump over the car. Some Evil Knievel stuff.

[Ken]

That'd be pretty sick.

[Ryan]

You could use them as monster jam.

[Mike]

Oh, no, not a three wheeler jump.

[Ken]

A new truck.

[Mike]

Motorcycle jump.

[Gavin]

No.

[Spenny]

Oh.

[Ken]

New dirt bike jump. I don't feel comfy jumping.

[Ryan]

This guy is Evil Knievel. I'm saying Evil Knievel in the 80s.

[Ken]

Oh, yeah. He was all through the 80s. 90s, I'm sure.

[Ryan]

A little bit. Maybe you need to start dressing like him.

[Ken]

Should I?

[Ryan]

Yeah. I mean, you're kind.

[Mike]

You look more like Robbie Knievel.

[Evan]

Ken was dressed like Evil Knievel today.

[Ken]

Good God, were you ever. Ken.

[Evan]

How you doing, Ken?

[Dalton]

So bad, Ken.

[Ryan]

What's wrong, Ken?

[Mike]

He tried to grind a box today, dude.

[Ryan]

Are you kidding me?

[Evan]

He tried going across a box and I gave him just one piece of advice. I said, keep your skis straight. What's he do? Tries to pizza on the box. Are you.

[Ryan]

You ate, dude?

[Ken]

I thought his ATL was gone.

[Mike]

He went so slow. He basically came to a complete state stop. And then he sl.

[Evan]

I go, all you got to do, Ken, is keep your skis straight. What's he do? Pizzas Pizz.

[Ryan]

He's got weak knees.

[Evan]

I know he does. That's why I was trying to give him advice.

[Ken]

Poor dude was asking for my knee braces before we went, too. I didn't have him to give, though.

[Dalton]

Ken texted me today at 4:05pm you got any Advil on hand, question mark?

[Evan]

Oh, my God.

[Dalton]

I said, no, I don't. You good? He said, so good, baby.

[Ryan]

So good answer. That's a good answer, Ken.

[Ken]

I told you guys I'm rubbing off on Ken pretty well right now.

[Mike]

What happens in the back seat of that Mercedes?

[Ken]

We're not talking about that part, but Ken's been in a really good mood lately. I'll tell you guys that.

[Ryan]

Gavin's keeping him real happy.

[Mike]

Do you guys take turns or how does that work?

[Ken]

Chill, pro. We're just doing so good back there.

[Evan]

It's like Ben's driving around.

[Ken]

Driving.

[Mike]

He's driving those two in the back.

[Gavin]

I should have. Yes, Ken. It's the completion, you know?

[Ken]

You'll just have to watch the footage to find out, check out the GoPro footy filming it.

[Ryan]

That's wild.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

I don't know if we can put that on YouTube.

[Ken]

We kept it. Yeah, we kept it. A little PJ, PG13, maybe a little rated R, but that's all right.

[Dalton]

You two in a Honda in the back seat, man, oh, man.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Thankfully we picked up the Honda on the way back. That made for a shittier ride though, considering we couldn't tape up our back window. Got a little hairy coming over the veil path.

[Evan]

It wasn't honestly that bad. Granted, I was in the front.

[Mike]

Since we're talking about the blowed out window, I couldn't help but almost cry, laughing watching you guys going down the highway and you and Ken's big ass head.

[Ken]

Poor vet Peg. Couldn't see anything.

[Evan]

My review mirror, I look out the mirror, right? And all I got Ken's big head on the left, Gavin's big head on the right. And then this freaking motorcycle that Gavin had to buy.

[Ken]

Freaking motorcycle.

[Evan]

Like that gorgeous drop down in the middle of them, Right? It's just a complete blind spot. It's just as good as not having a back window.

[Ken]

Sorry about that.

[Evan]

No, I think it was hilarious.

[Dalton]

And my favorite part about this trip is because normally whenever we travel, we do everything together. So whatever experience, like, we all have it in our own different way. Normally, you know, it's like you two talking to the guy who's talking about not getting roadhead in the back of his car. Yeah, but like, I'm just kind of sitting away, like 10ft watching it happen.

[Evan]

But you would have been there for it.

[Dalton]

But I would have been there for. Yeah, but now three different groups, kind of four, with Gavin Elon driving the fucking truck around. But like, we have three different experiences of every day. So it's like we meet up together and then there's this story time of everybody sharing what the fuck happened during their day.

[Mike]

We actually don't sit on our phones for dinner. I don't think we have to talk about. So good.

[Dalton]

Yeah, it's so fun.

[Ken]

I can't wait for you guys to see the clips of the DNR guy from our campsite. Dude. Oh, my gosh. Our campsite host was a hoot and a half.

[Mike]

And I'm sure your teams are just like ours. You know, obviously we're maybe sending a few bluffs here and there, and we have stuff you guys still have no idea about. And I'm just like, man, when this stuff goes to the editing block, it's gonna be crazy.

[Evan]

Yeah, it is.

[Gavin]

It's. It's kind of frustrating not be able to talk about it right now, but.

[Evan]

Yeah, I think there's just so much.

[Gavin]

Yeah, there's.

[Evan]

That's really.

[Ryan]

Is.

[Gavin]

I mean, we could just go on. I mean, seriously, to your point, like, no phones at dinner, which is just a. It's, you know.

[Dalton]

Well, yeah, I'm, like, always excited to hang out with you guys, but, like, I'm excited to hear about your day. Like, I know when everybody rolls in, you're gonna get like, what happened throughout the day. And normally it's something that just makes absolutely no sense because of what we're driving.

[Ken]

Makes zero sense, I'll tell you that. None of this trip has made sense. I'll tell you that right now, man.

[Gavin]

I think also another favorite part about it is just the sheer amount of people that we've confused. Whether that be us crashing into each other or running around in weird outfits and this and that.

[Evan]

Like, I mean, my car or our car driving down the road is in itself gone viral in a way. Like, every single car we drive by is filming us.

[Dalton]

Really?

[Evan]

Every single bike with the. With the bike with the can on the front and then with the coal coming out the hood. Like, every.

[Mike]

No window being able to see through.

[Evan]

The car and no front seat.

[Ken]

Every part of the car.

[Evan]

Car is hilarious, right? So every time somebody drives up next to us, they're either filming or they're just pointing and laughing.

[Gavin]

Since you guys both have cars, there's something about seeing dudes in a car where they're sitting in the back seat with no tin. It's just like.

[Evan]

It looks like.

[Gavin]

Yeah, yeah, exactly. It's just like, what are these guys up to?

[Mike]

No good.

[Gavin]

No good.

[Dalton]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Hey, we're so good, Ken. Huh? We're having fun.

[Dalton]

So good, baby.

[Gavin]

No, but even if you are, it doesn't look like you're up to any good.

[Ken]

Oh, you're right about that.

[Evan]

Little change of topic here. But can somebody explain this whole, like, Internet trend of, like, people memeing the guy that wakes up and puts his face in, like, the cold water and, like, wakes up at 3am and then I probably could. Have you guys seen that? That's all I see on my, like, tick tock.

[Ken]

I haven't seen it yet.

[Gavin]

I mean, I saw him, like, organically the dude, and then I was just like, is this real?

[Evan]

You know, so what?

[Gavin]

Everyone basically said the same thing. They watch it and go, like, this is. I think it's just rage bait to an extent.

[Mike]

Can we Pull the clip up. I think half of us don't know what you're talking about.

[Gavin]

Basically just this guy who has a crazy morning routine and he like gets up at 3:45am and he's like rinsing his face in special.

[Evan]

Mr. Beast just posted one.

[Gavin]

Yeah, now it's just a trend to like.

[Evan]

And then it's everyone like doing it.

[Ken]

With like kind of stupid.

[Dalton]

But he like dips his face in like some fancy water and with ice.

[Gavin]

Now everyone's doing like. I mean they're just faking it. They'll say it like 3:59 in the morning. They're.

[Dalton]

You guys should do one with your car.

[Ryan]

Show Evan one here.

[Gavin]

It's whack.

[Ken]

All right. He's brushing his teeth, pouring up the water.

[Mike]

Looks like some Dalton would be doing.

[Ken]

I like to put push ups. Why is this going viral?

[Ryan]

This guy's disciplined.

[Gavin]

See, I think it's rage bait. Like he's. I think he's just doing it, putting those time stamps on there. I mean, clearly he's a disciplined fella.

[Ryan]

I think he's actually doing it. But he's doing it to piss people off.

[Gavin]

Yeah, exactly.

[Mike]

Do I have to finish watching it?

[Gavin]

No, no, wait.

[Ken]

I don't want to keep seeing what he's doing. 7:30.

[Dalton]

We're only to 7:30.

[Ken]

Taking a swim. This is unreal. 6.4 million likes.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Evan]

Kevin, Kevin wakes up at 3:30 tomorrow.

[Gavin]

Morning, just starts doing stuff.

[Ken]

The exact same routine.

[Dalton]

Yeah, you should do one where you wake up and then you like wipe your eyes, go get a pop Tart.

[Mike]

And you just take a and go back to bed.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Go get a chocolate milk real fast.

[Ryan]

Back to bed till 11am I'm so doing.

[Evan]

Yo, that's actually funny, dude. Do that.

[Ken]

I will. That's awesome.

[Dalton]

No, you just do it and go to your garage and just at like 8:59 start tinkering with a three wheeler. And then it just moved to like 8:59pm.

[Ryan]

Screwdriver down.

[Ken]

What a stupid routine that was though. I mean, freaking out. Just drink a glass of water and go hit the gym, man. You don't need all that. You know what I mean?

[Mike]

I think that, I kind of think he wants to make content. That's why he's doing it.

[Ken]

Good for him. He killed it on that video.

[Evan]

Yeah, I think if you started running that morning routine, you would look like that though.

[Mike]

Crash out for rest of the day by noon. If you started like that, you're not wrong.

[Ken]

345.

[Dalton]

How many Celsiuses you think you'd have to have during that.

[Ken]

We're talking five, six, I mean, maybe even seven. Normally we keep it at three. We keep it at three. Normally.

[Dalton]

Two on your Celsius. Try to run it over.

[Ken]

Look like this one day, man. That's the goal. Give me five years.

[Ryan]

Shave your chest, dude, I can't be doing that.

[Ken]

What are you talking about?

[Gavin]

No way. Yeah, no way.

[Ken]

That's what the girls love running their fingers through. I mean, yeah, they're nothing to swirl.

[Evan]

They really. Girls, I just spent the last 10 days with you. You talked such a big game. And I have seen the worst performance imaginable.

[Ken]

I'm still out there having fun. I'm talking to the girls, getting their numbers. I'm just setting myself up for in the future. I don't need any one night. Yeah, no one night stands. We're just looking for the future girl, right?

[Mike]

What were you doing in the courtyard the other night?

[Ken]

That's a whole nother story, Ev.

[Evan]

Oh, let me hear.

[Ken]

This wasn't good, man. You know, I have a slight love for hippie chicks. And we were in Moab, land of the hippies.

[Evan]

A lot of hippies in Moab lot. A lot of douchebags.

[Mike]

So many, I would say.

[Ken]

I've never seen it like that. I think. I don't know what that was about.

[Dalton]

Yeah. What are you.

[Ken]

Maybe I was running around looking too redneck. Sorry, guys, but might have been everyone.

[Evan]

Everyone had some kind of like bad encounter.

[Mike]

Sorry. We kind of derailed from yours. But yeah, in Moab, there were so many dicks.

[Ken]

It's a lot of dicks. But I love the hippie girl still. And you know, we just hung out. Nothing. Nothing crazy. Like I said, I just got her number. Maybe future date in Moab you could have pasta.

[Evan]

J's pretty.

[Ryan]

It's always the pasta.

[Ken]

Damn right.

[Gavin]

Gavin told me Pasta Jays was his favorite place on earth. I personally love the pasta, but did. Did I hear some hints of food poisoning or some.

[Mike]

Well, that was jokes because we all drank like 97 beers after we ate the pasta. And then we blamed the pasta. The pasta was. Couldn't have been actually amazing.

[Ryan]

I'm glad you were joking, cuz you said it so serious that I just walked away thinking, man, Evan is delusional. I literally. You know, you had. You had so many beers that night and then you wake up in the morning, man, I feel like. I think that pasta we ate last night, there was something wrong. I go, this guy is Del. I'm not even Going to talk as.

[Ken]

He went through drinking every single beer they had.

[Ryan]

Yeah, you cleared a whole row.

[Dalton]

It needs clarification that you had one of all the beers on the shelf, right?

[Mike]

Yeah. So, I mean, we met a really cool Canadian in Moab who helped us out a ton. He rode with us. He helped us out and shout out Zach, Shout out zag. Eh.

[Ken]

The girls all night. His name was Eric. That dude.

[Gavin]

And then at the end of the night, he just started telling up people he was also Gavin.

[Ken]

Yeah, he did start going with that.

[Evan]

Either way, he thought that you were just messing with him, calling him Eric. So then he was just like, I'm going to start telling people my name's Gavin. Apparently this is. Apparently this is a joke between me and Gavin. Like, we mess up each other.

[Ryan]

He's so serious about it. I don't really get into how it's funny, but I had no clue.

[Ken]

Sorry, Zach.

[Mike]

Nah, either way, I said I feel like I. I owe him a couple beers because he helped me out a lot that day. I was like, what do you want to drink? What kind of beer? And we looked and there were 12 different beers lined up across the shelf. We looked at each other and thought, what if we just start on one end and quit when we get to the other? And we did it.

[Dalton]

Just finished. It's like when you used to take the pop cup and go and get one of everything. So what's going on?

[Ken]

You are really good at trolling, man.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

You had me thinking I dislocated your shoulder.

[Evan]

No, you didn't do anything.

[Ken]

But, well, we were running up in the hotel room, and next thing you know, Evan's cooking by me. So I, of course I have to stick my foot out. Evan just slams on the ground.

[Ryan]

That's funny.

[Mike]

Oh, dude, dude, dude.

[Ken]

He went on for like, five minutes just laying in the hall. I go, mike, come help me out. Come help me out.

[Ryan]

Oh, God.

[Ken]

Mike even's like, what are you doing, bro? What are you doing after five minutes of messing with us?

[Ryan]

Oh, it's okay.

[Ken]

It's okay.

[Ryan]

It's okay.

[Ken]

And then pulled another prank. We're not going to talk about what?

[Mike]

How the hell are you doing?

[Ken]

Stupid.

[Ryan]

That's a funny prank, Gav, because Evan would have done that to you.

[Ken]

Oh, 100. He would have.

[Mike]

I did do it.

[Gavin]

Did do it.

[Mike]

Oh, oh, the tripping part.

[Ryan]

Yeah, the tripping part.

[Mike]

I do. Yeah. Remember that one time we had spenny pushed you over when I was picking up my quarter in the parking lot?

[Gavin]

Yeah, that Was a park.

[Ken]

I remember when you table taught me. Yeah, that was funny, though.

[Mike]

Benny pushes you so hard, you immediately attack me.

[Ken]

I know. I thought me and Benny, we're friends. I don't know where that came from.

[Gavin]

I just love when. When anything gets just a little bit too out of hand with you. Gav, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill.

[Ken]

Got to tell him to chill, man. Yeah.

[Evan]

Yeah. Spinny's parents were there. Canadians. And, man, we were tearing up the dance floor with spinny's dude, mostly SPs.

[Ken]

Dad was electric.

[Evan]

It was actually. Seen those moves when he was hitting, like, the shark fin across the dance floor.

[Ken]

Real dude got me fired up.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Evan]

I'd never seen that before, but it was. It was great. We had a fun time.

[Ken]

Best time ever, man. He really set the tone. Next thing you know, all the boys are out on the dance floor just having a time. Love, Glenn. Glenn, you're the man.

[Gavin]

Leonard. Scanner.

[Mike]

When you threw me under the bus, I hide.

[Ken]

This was funny, too.

[Mike]

So I. I have the app on my phone for the jukebox, and I hijacked it fast, passing a bunch of Nickelback, one after another after another after another.

[Evan]

Like, you put the Nickelback to the front.

[Dalton]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Time. Six or seven or eight.

[Evan]

Yeah, that's a spinning move right there. I was.

[Mike]

I mean. I mean, I was hanging out with him. He might have encouraged it, but it was definitely a movie. And this chick comes up after, like, five, six Nickelback songs. And she looks at the. She looks at the jukebox. She's like, I. I played this so long ago, and now it's like, at the bottom, what's going on? And I'm like, yeah, some asshole played a bunch. A bunch of Nickelback. And Gavin immediately points at me. He's like, he. He's that asshole. He played the Nickelback.

[Ryan]

She was not saying.

[Ken]

She turned around and left.

[Mike]

Walked back to her boyfriend with a scowl on her face.

[Dalton]

Leave it to the people, Moab. To not like Nickelback.

[Evan]

Yeah, Seriously.

[Ken]

What a great place, though. I mean, you got to love Moab. It's like a whole nother planet, but it's heaven on earth.

[Evan]

Yeah. It was actually so awesome, wasn't it?

[Gavin]

It was good. I love spending, like. I'm glad we got to spend a couple of nights there. We, you know, now I feel like I really know my way around.

[Ken]

Well, yeah, because normally we're in and then we're out.

[Evan]

Yeah, that's the other thing, too, about, like, traveling in these cars is I feel like we're getting to experience so much more.

[Gavin]

So much more.

[Evan]

Mostly cuz we keep breaking down in every other town. Yeah, it's really boots on the ground.

[Ken]

Especially you guys. You guys hit the bars in Utah. What was that like?

[Mike]

Bars have been great. Every place we stopped.

[Evan]

We.

[Mike]

Yeah, we stopped a couple places. There's subs there.

[Ken]

Good vibes.

[Evan]

Good vibes everywhere.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Evan]

Is that where you guys went when you re met those kids with the wide pants?

[Gavin]

That was McDonald's.

[Evan]

Can you pop that video up of those? I still can't shout my mind around this. Let me see this.

[Ryan]

That was wild.

[Ken]

Those were some parachute pants if I've ever seen parachute.

[Mike]

They weren't even parachute parachute pants. No, they were just wide denim.

[Ryan]

I'd like to see Evan wearing pants like that. You think how funny that look.

[Mike]

I mean, it was like what, the late 90s, early 2000s, the jinkos. And. And they're coming back. I don't think any of these kids were actually running Jenkos, but they were the same style.

[Ryan]

It was too much, man. Too much.

[Mike]

But no, we ended up at some bar that apparently the bartender told us was like Post Malone spot when he's in Utah. You're kidding. Because it's the bar that most reminds him of his favorite bar from Tennessee or wherever.

[Evan]

Texas.

[Mike]

Texas.

[Ken]

Texas.

[Mike]

But I don't know, it was just cool. It was like a big garage, but it was a bar.

[Gavin]

I don't know. Yeah, the best one was still no. When we went to just this divey dive. Dive bar. You know, when everyone looks at you when you go in, you can tell they're all local as it gets. And they all look at us like north side vibes. And we made friends with them and it was. Yeah, it was very much north side.

[Mike]

Vibes and rough working class.

[Gavin]

I don't know.

[Mike]

It's just funny.

[Gavin]

We were just making friends with them and next thing you know, we're in the back with like the walk in cooler and the extra kegs and all the other supplies. Very dive bar. We're playing hacky sack with like half the people in the bar.

[Mike]

We were scared that Spenny and Dalton went to check out the back patio. They don't come back for 10 minutes. And we're like, oh man, are they getting rolled up back there? You know, Dalton running his mouth. They getting in trouble. We go back there and there's literally 10 people in a circle playing hacky sack. And of course we hopped in. Don't know.

[Gavin]

I don't know.

[Evan]

That was like when we Were running hacky sack on the strip in Vegas.

[Ryan]

Legendary sack stint for a while.

[Evan]

Yeah, we gotta fire that back up again.

[Ryan]

That's fun.

[Evan]

Pretty wholesome.

[Gavin]

It is.

[Evan]

Period of seahorse. Yeah. Good clean fun. Yeah. How'd you guys all end up in Vegas?

[Ryan]

125.

[Ken]

Whoa.

[Ryan]

I was up way more. I was up way more. And I said I was gonna be done, and then I was up, like, two grand or something like that. And then I decided I wanted to gamble.

[Evan]

I flew there.

[Ken]

He's a smartass.

[Gavin]

Oh. I actually ended up down probably, like, 600 bucks. Yeah.

[Mike]

That must be nice.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

How much did you go down, Ev?

[Mike]

You know, a couple heaters here and there kind of fell apart at the end.

[Evan]

How much a story is all this time?

[Mike]

Couple of bones.

[Ryan]

3,000.

[Mike]

No, two.

[Ken]

Two?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Ken]

That's not. Okay, ev.

[Ryan]

2K.

[Ken]

That's, like, two three wheelers right there. You know that?

[Gavin]

Yeah. You do.

[Ryan]

He does.

[Mike]

Yeah. But it's anyone that gambles knows, like, you got to put in, like, the less you put in, the less you even have a chance to win yet. You got to play the game, Gav.

[Ken]

You're not good at playing the game.

[Mike]

Apparently, on this trip.

[Ken]

All right, fair enough.

[Mike]

I don't lose every single time. Just most of the time.

[Ken]

Never seen you win.

[Evan]

Yeah, I haven't seen it either. I think everyone did pretty bad. And spending really bad. Every time I. Every time I'd see spending, he'd be coming up to, dude, the kid needs a little cash advance, maybe. You got any cash for the kid?

[Ken]

Canadian freaking card wouldn't work at the atm. So he's asking everybody for cash.

[Evan]

I'm like, oh, didn't C.J. just give you 300 bucks, bro?

[Mike]

He pulled up on me. I'd already been playing roulette for a while, and I was kind of maintaining up and down. Say, like, a 300 window. I'd hit a few, lose a few. Spenny sits down, hits like four or five in a row, is up. Big chips everywhere. Doesn't even know what to do with them, so he just bets all of them and loses everything. He was in and out so fast. Went from such a low to such a high to rock bottom.

[Ken]

Yeah, it's a shitty part about gambling, man. You could be up really high, and.

[Evan]

Then two seconds later, dude, 100%. That's how it goes. I went into the. Last night, we sat down at this, like, baccarat table with our friend that knows how to play baccarat, and we're.

[Ryan]

Where I lost My winnings.

[Evan]

And we're just like, dude, hey, we're rolling with you. We're rolling with you. And there's a hundred dollar bachrat table. So like every hand had to be a minimum hundred dollars. Right. We were like progressive betting. So if you lose, you just double down. And if you lose that one, you double that one down.

[Ryan]

And then eventually we're doing 800 hands.

[Evan]

Yeah, you can't lose forever. Exactly. But you can run out of money. But you can run out of money. And that's what we did. So at one point, at one point, I was up like 2 grand on this table. And I didn't walk because CJ sat down next to me because he didn't play for the first 45 minutes.

[Ryan]

No, I up. And then you lost my. I lost my money, bro. It was so stupid.

[Evan]

So I'm only two grand. I'm ready to walk. CJ finally goes, all right, I guess I'll play. And he puts in like a thousand bucks in like within four minutes. We both lost all of our money.

[Ken]

That is not good, dude. I regret that I sat down for two seconds, saw you guys were doing $100 hands just took right the heck off.

[Evan]

The problem is, smart guy, if I.

[Ryan]

Wouldn'T have played, I would have had regret of not playing. And yeah, there was three options. It would have been two of them had regret if I either didn't play or if I lost it, which I did. But the third would have been if I would have played and we would have gone up more, and then I would have been really happy.

[Ken]

You were up like a grand.

[Ryan]

Two grand up, CJ. I know, but I still walked away. 125 up, still win. So still, you know, and then I. I sent some flowers to alex, which costed $120. So $5 up, pretty good time.

[Ken]

Damn right.

[Dalton]

I told the laundry, I said, whatever I win, I will spend on you.

[Ken]

What'd you win?

[Dalton]

I'm down about 1500 bucks.

[Evan]

So she actually owes you Alondra an invoice for that.

[Dalton]

Send her a better request.

[Ryan]

Yeah, on my Snapchat story, I actually have a picture of Evan standing at a roulette table, just eager. You can just see, it's really like he's. His ears are pricked up, he's having a good time, and then the next shot is him at an atm putting his card in, getting more cash.

[Mike]

Yeah, that happened.

[Ryan]

I just would watch him go.

[Evan]

Tough place. I know.

[Dalton]

So hard because we were with that friend and then someone else he knew and that I watched him win, like, 15 grand playing baccarat. And I went, wow, this looks really fun.

[Evan]

Well, Ryan, when you got a lot more cheddar in your pocket to keep progressive betting, you're eventually going to win. You're eventually going to win, but at some point, you run out of money. And after we had all just lost all of our money, the, like, pit boss came up, what to do. She goes, you guys shouldn't do this. Like, you shouldn't be betting the way that you were betting. Like, I get the whole progressive betting. Like, you're gonna win eventually, but you just ran out of money, so you didn't really think that through. So next time, don't do that. And we sat up and we're like, why didn't you tell us that five minutes ago?

[Ken]

The pit boss rolls, man.

[Ryan]

You know, I didn't like that spot because it was in the high limit room, and they were like. The pit bosses were, like, Asian. And that's fine. That's fine that they're Asian, but they were speaking in. In a different language and, like, kind of, like, laughing. And you could tell they were talking about us, I'm sure. Like, yeah, that one in the. In the hat. That's backwards. It was stupid idiot. You know, like, probably. So then, like, it threw off my game because I'm like, they're making. Making fun of me. Like, you know, I'm trying to just play. Like, it kind of made me not have a good time.

[Gavin]

But now, yeah, now, you know, next time to just walk when you're talking.

[Ryan]

Languages play. That's what I should have done.

[Mike]

What is that? What did that one pit boss tell you, Spenny? You had rocks in your head. He pulls his phone out on the roulette table. He's on it. No phones. So he sticks. He just puts it below the table.

[Ken]

And then it proceeds to keep texting.

[Mike]

And then she yells at him, and he's like, well, I'm from Canada. Canada. We could do it. And she's like, we're in usa. Do you have rocks in your head?

[Ryan]

Like, so what do we got brewing for tonight? We got chef spinny on the steaks. It's. It's smelling like. Is he out there grilling them up right now?

[Evan]

He's out there right now, dude.

[Mike]

He's beating the meat currently.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Tenderizing it.

[Evan]

Yeah. Why don't you go help him beat them?

[Ryan]

Yeah. You've been donating the best car for a while.

[Ken]

That was good. That was actually really, really good, man.

[Mike]

Why Is Ken blushing right now?

[Ken]

Ken Chell?

[Ryan]

Yes, just wind burned.

[Ken]

He says we're doing better, man. We're starting to figure it out. CJ's advice has really been helping me out in a lot of ways.

[Evan]

Oh really?

[Ryan]

Have you actually been you doing what I, my, my advice with, with the pelvis.

[Ken]

100. Dude. Dude, thank you, bro.

[Mike]

You haven't even talked to a woman.

[Ken]

Since you got that advice between Texas and Vegas. I was hoping for two nights. One of the nights I got lucky.

[Ryan]

And it, it actually lasted long. Did she like it better?

[Ken]

No, she loved it.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it was a great. This is what I was saying. There was actually a lot of people actually said thank you to me for, for giving that advice. And then there was a few people that like, CJ's a idiot. He doesn't even know what he's talking about.

[Ken]

No, you know what you're talking about, man.

[Ryan]

So I'm glad I could help.

[Gavin]

Dude, if one more person tells CJ this, he's probably going to write a book.

[Evan]

Bro.

[Ryan]

I should keep.

[Dalton]

Like an Instagram or.

[Evan]

Like, or like kind of leaning over a table, bro.

[Ryan]

I, I, I'll be like, I have over over a dozen success stories. But anyways, back to beating the meat. So spenny. Dude, this guy is like a freaking professional chef.

[Evan]

Apparently, you know, he bro gonna make the best wife.

[Ryan]

Yeah, well, he's a, he kind of is. So he's obviously a professional motocross racer. And when he's back in Canada, his girlfriend, she is like a businesswoman. And, and you know, spending's got more of like a loose schedule because he gets to just, you know, he trained.

[Mike]

Schedule is not the only thing that's loose.

[Ryan]

Yeah, but anyway, so he does a lot of cooking at home for her.

[Ken]

What?

[Ryan]

So rude. This dude's with on the trip.

[Evan]

This dude I'm called for have.

[Ken]

Chill, bro. Chill, chill.

[Ryan]

So anyway, Spenny makes up eggs Benedict this morning and some pancakes, some, some potatoes and now he's doing dinner. This is great, cuz. It's saving us a ton of money. And also it tastes better than going out.

[Ken]

That was a mean eggs Benedict though, I'll tell you that. First time I've ever had it. Homemade killer spinny pancakes.

[Mike]

What was your secret to the Holliday sauce? It was extra creamy.

[Ken]

Evan.

[Evan]

Dude, Evan is so revved up right.

[Ryan]

Now cuz he watched that guy's morning routine vehicle video.

[Mike]

I got to get home to.

[Evan]

So revved up.

[Ken]

Bro, easy on it, man. You've been rooming with Dalton Too long. I thought you'd be. I thought he'd be helping you out.

[Mike]

How is that supposed to be nothing?

[Dalton]

I'm pretty excited for the Freedom 500.

[Ken]

Let's go, baby.

[Dalton]

I've been visualizing the last time I was like, all right, we're just gonna go. We're gonna have a good time. You know, you don't gotta win. I'd be fine if I did.

[Evan]

Yeah, that's what that was your mentality going into it.

[Dalton]

No, my mentality was, is I was gonna learn and study and get the most laps possible. And it was my first time, you know?

[Ken]

Now it's game on.

[Dalton]

I've been visualizing the win. I'm working on my victory speech. I've been practicing my victory donuts in the Crown Vic. I've been driving across the country.

[Ken]

You get me going. You kind of have been practicing, actually.

[Evan]

That's actually a good point, bro.

[Dalton]

I've driven a Crown Vic for the last 1500 miles.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Dalton]

Nobody. Yeah, nobody. Not Daryl Waltrip, not all the professional athletes and race car drivers have been doing what I've been doing.

[Evan]

True. It's true. Actually, you do have that on them.

[Ryan]

It's got to feel good, just knowing the confidence in the team being that, like, pretty much no one is going down this time.

[Evan]

Like.

[Ryan]

Like, a lot of us are just staying back because we're like, dude, we take last every time.

[Ken]

Who's going?

[Ryan]

We're not going to ship all 10 of us down there to, you know. So it's like, I don't even know who's really going. Ryan's racing. That's all I know.

[Ken]

I'm in the band race.

[Ryan]

We might just be watching on tv. I don't know.

[Mike]

I was going to go with. For oral support, please.

[Ryan]

We need it.

[Ken]

Evan.

[Evan]

You're going with Evan.

[Ryan]

That'd be cool. All right, so we got Evan there.

[Ken]

Go run the oral support or oral support. What?

[Mike]

You said oral moral.

[Ken]

Support.

[Dalton]

He's gonna, like, give me advice and positive reinforcement.

[Ken]

Go fast, go left.

[Gavin]

The prize is crazy rye. What are you thinking? You already got a Z06. We already got a badass sprinter. So which one would you actually take right now? Had to choose.

[Dalton]

I've been thinking about this, and I think that a sprinter would be nice for the whole team. There's a toilet, except for it has a toilet.

[Gavin]

And I think that that is going.

[Dalton]

To be a maintenance nightmare. So I think we're going to take. We're going to take the black Z06 when we win in five days, nasty.

[Ryan]

Turn into a drift car.

[Mike]

And honestly, we don't need the toilet in the sprinter van. I finally introduced my fellow teammates on this trip to the Gatorade bottle. Dude, we were two minutes away from the Airbnb two times. Multiple times. We're about to pull up, and Dalton's got his schlong in a Gatorade bottle.

[Dalton]

Just want to say that I'm so glad that the team shook out the way I did, because I. I think some of us wouldn't have survived.

[Ryan]

You guys. Seems easily the grossest. Easily. The girls.

[Mike]

All right, you guys want to run down to the bar? Mike's not drinking, so he's the safe driver. We're gonna go out for a night, and they hop in. There's like 3 piss ch on the fl.

[Ken]

So not okay.

[Mike]

Didn't you guys get rid of these? You're like, oh, yeah, you're right. We dump them out. Keep the jugs.

[Dalton]

What?

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Is it just.

[Evan]

You guys threw it on our car.

[Ryan]

At one point when we were driving down the road.

[Evan]

Think of this, Mike.

[Gavin]

I mean, I've done it before. I feel like we did introduce Dalton to it, but, like, I mean, that doesn't gross me out.

[Evan]

Really.

[Gavin]

Yeah. Well, I. I do make. I make. I, like, made to Dalton the day. I'm like, get rid of the piss. I don't want. We can keep the bottle if we got to use it again.

[Ken]

But I'm like, shouldn't even be a conversation.

[Mike]

You know how much time we've saved?

[Dalton]

Yeah, first everywhere.

[Evan]

No, we've been first everywhere.

[Mike]

Everybody is actually delusional.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I think we've actually been first everywhere.

[Evan]

No, besides, for yesterday, we've been. We've been running the show.

[Mike]

You guys were still sitting at the hotel when we already had purchased a vehicle. We've been in the lead since it started.

[Ken]

We'll give you that. Man, you guys were off to a very hot start.

[Evan]

Honestly, kind of put the fire underneath us, and we were just. Then we. That's what put us between a rock and a hard place. Between. Yeah, this shitty ass Jeep and this 1980s Mercedes.

[Mike]

Is he the rock and Ken the hard place or what are you saying, Ben?

[Evan]

Oh, no, I have not been. I have not been partaking in the backseat adventures.

[Mike]

Stay.

[Ken]

What happens in Mercedes stayed the Mercedes. Right, Ken?

[Ryan]

The only thing I kind of wish the teams would have shook it out a little differently for is just, you know, Dalton being with with you on Mike and Evan's team. He's just such a young impressionable you know, he was a sharp young man. Like, I've just watched him slowly become more like Evan. Yeah, Mike. Like, he. He is very similar to them now, you know?

[Mike]

No, I think we've sculpted him. Sculpted him into a very respectful.

[Ryan]

Yeah, you definitely sculpted him. Yeah. So I don't know. Is it just me that's noticing this?

[Evan]

Well, how. Here's what happened yesterday. We. We needed somebody to take our camera. And so what do you do when some, you know, ask the camera guy.

[Ken]

Take the camera, please.

[Evan]

We go, hey, Dalton, can you take this camera so it doesn't get stolen out of our car? Because we had to go and get lunch, and we don't have any back windows or anything. And he said, yeah, you, and slammed the door. Camera guy.

[Gavin]

He's our camera.

[Ken]

It is true.

[Ryan]

Yeah, he's.

[Evan]

Yeah, that's how.

[Ryan]

That's what I'm saying. That's when a lot of situations like that, and I'm just like, man, that.

[Gavin]

Has nothing to do with Evan and I. I mean, I think 100.

[Evan]

That's the attitude.

[Gavin]

When we first started, we were like, we're a team. That's it.

[Evan]

Yeah, but he's still the company's cameraman.

[Gavin]

Well, yeah, that's where it got hairy. So you can't be mad. We can't be mad.

[Dalton]

Yeah.

[Mike]

That's actually a super bizarre scenario.

[Gavin]

It is.

[Mike]

I thought we were, like, three separate teams.

[Ken]

I mean, still, we're all one big team just trying to make some fun happen.

[Evan]

But, yeah, yeah. I mean. I mean, yeah, we could have just left our camera there and let it get stolen, but, I mean, we also.

[Mike]

Don'T have a window and broken doors.

[Evan]

No, I know, but you guys were driving. We were leaving it there so the glue could dry.

[Ryan]

That has been one of my concerns is that our camera will get stolen and we will lose. Well, granted, we've been backing up every night, but, like, at one point, we had it in our car, and I was very nervous because we were. We were just having a coffee shop, but, like, went back because I was so worried someone's gonna break in. Take it.

[Evan]

You know how much I love the.

[Dalton]

Footage created over that camera.

[Ryan]

Get that back. You just can't. And it's. But yeah. So luckily, no. No cameras have been stolen. But I understand why you.

[Ken]

Have you guys ever left a camera somewhere with footage on it?

[Ryan]

Left it?

[Ken]

Yep.

[Gavin]

Not.

[Mike]

Ran a few over.

[Gavin]

I ran a camera over. I just actually got that out for a repair.

[Evan]

What did you run that over with?

[Ryan]

Like, three years ago, Sema truck, Bronco. It was on our SEMA truck. You had a set on the tire, I thought, and you moved it back.

[Mike]

Well, the one Mike's talking about was when me and him and Tr. Deep Tom were out there, and he ran it over.

[Ryan]

Just.

[Gavin]

Literally just ran.

[Mike]

It was on the front tire, and you ran over with the front tire, and we told you to stop, and by the time you stopped, you were exactly on top of the rear tire.

[Gavin]

That's pretty standard. Like, that's standard for me. I'm an idiot.

[Evan]

Didn't we run that camera, though, as a podcast camera for, like, three years after that?

[Ryan]

They're tough, dude.

[Mike]

Just a crack screen.

[Ryan]

The thing is, though, is, like, I don't even know how many cameras we've gone through. I mean, probably. Yeah, I was gonna say a dozen, maybe. Maybe more. But, like. And they're very expensive, but you use them every single day. And, like, they're just a tool. But, yeah, we've. We've broken a ton of cameras, and no one really cares about the camera. It's just the footage.

[Ken]

Footage in it. Yeah.

[Ryan]

100 and we've lost footage probably maybe a little more in the handful of times, and. And it's always very. It's just. It's just a real bummer.

[Ken]

Heartbreaking, huh?

[Evan]

It really is.

[Ken]

Yeah. Last time I was leaving Fargo, my flight got canceled, right? So they're like, all right, go pick up your bags at the baggage claim. So I go to the.

[Mike]

Did you spend an extra night in Fargo that time?

[Ken]

Chill, chill.

[Ryan]

Easy.

[Ken]

We'll tell that later.

[Dalton]

You never told us about that.

[Ken]

I thought we might get into that. We might. We might start talking about that. But let me tell the first part.

[Dalton]

You called me and told me you didn't need your flight rebook.

[Mike]

I got it. I take care of it, baby.

[Ken]

For my bag to come around. And then all of a sudden, the cop comes up to me, right? And he's all being pretty cool. He's like, dude, your flight is. They're about to take back off. And so for some reason, I got all pumped up. I was starting to talk to him. He's one of your buddies, actually.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Yeah. So shaking hands with him. And next thing you know, I was like, all right, I'm gonna take off to the frontier desk and start talking to them, see if this flight's actually gonna take off. So I take off to the frontier desk. Five minutes goes by, waiting in line, no camera in hand.

[Dalton]

Dude, no.

[Ken]

Oh. Worst feeling ever. I start running around the whole airport like, oh, like, yeah, just like I have chicken with no head on, and next thing you know, I'm in the bathroom. Couldn't find it in the bathroom. Next thing you know, at the frontier desk. Still not around the frontier desk anywhere. Right where I was talking to the cop. It was sitting there, but holy crap, was that a heart drop?

[Evan]

I feel like.

[Ken]

Oh, my gosh. Because it had all the footage on it still. And you just can't replace that. You can't. Yeah.

[Gavin]

Almost dropped a couple tears at the tier desk.

[Mike]

So you made the flight?

[Ken]

Well, no, the flight. Yeah, the flight took off at 2am.

[Mike]

So you got a hotel?

[Ken]

I vetoed that. And no, I didn't get a hotel either. I got a ride back into Fargo and I had a good night.

[Ryan]

You just wish you would have known the pelvis method back then.

[Ken]

You're not wrong.

[Evan]

That's what we call a quick turnaround.

[Ken]

Very, very quick turnaround in both ways. But yeah, had a great night. She made me some food and next thing you know, hopping on a flight and 9am pasta. No, it's actually chicken and rice. Yeah.

[Evan]

A big boy like you? Yeah. She wanted to plump you up.

[Ken]

You think so? I hope not. I think I'm already pretty plumped.

[Gavin]

Trying to plump a guy up on a one night stand.

[Ken]

Exactly. I don't know. It was great chicken, though. And don't regret anything. How to buy a 500 plane ticket. But it was worth it.

[Evan]

I think we've probably broke more drones than anything. I swear, Ken treats a drone just like a, like, disposable battery.

[Ryan]

Paper airplane, dude.

[Evan]

As soon as the battery on the drone is dead, he's just like, all right, time to get a new one.

[Dalton]

A tree.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Dalton]

Filmer has ruined this one way more than I have.

[Evan]

No, you've. No, you've toasted way more GoPro or drones. Like four years. Yeah, but you toasted like four in three years.

[Ryan]

Every time Ken would.

[Evan]

He'd be like, all right, like six drones.

[Ryan]

All right, Ken, get the drone up. Ken's got the drone. You walk over there, you come back a minute and a half later. How's it looking, Ken? It's crashed. I hit a tree. I hit a tree.

[Ken]

We're like, what?

[Ryan]

I already got a new one coming. He already got a new one coming.

[Mike]

I think it was right around when I started with you guys, but it was one of those where it had crashed. And he literally did that. Yeah, there's another one on the way.

[Ryan]

He ordered a new one before it hit the ground. Yeah.

[Evan]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

He had a new one on the way before I hit the ground.

[Ken]

He keeps them in the cart ready to go. Just has to hit by.

[Dalton]

Good, boys.

[Ryan]

Yeah, good.

[Dalton]

How's our. How's our food coming, bud?

[Ken]

You got asparagus? What else you running?

[Mike]

There's gonna be some stinky piss jugs tomorrow.

[Gavin]

Come on now.

[Ryan]

Oh, my gosh. Well, see, that's what I'm talking about. Just. Just gross. I'm glad. Not in the van. We good on this one?

[Evan]

We're good.

[Ryan]

I know we got a short turnaround time for this podcast, so we can't go super long, but. Yeah. Thank you guys for listening. We'll be back next Tuesday. And stay tuned for the Cheap Car challenge. Two part video. It's going to be like three weeks from now, but it's going to be legendary, so hit the subscribe button. We'll see you guys next time.

[Mike]

Keep your stick on the ice.

[Ken]

Let's go, fellas.

This podcast is brought to you by Aura.

It sounds like a nightmare, but for millions of people each year, it's reality. And here's the scariest part. By the time companies tell you your data was stolen, it's already been nearly a year. 277 days. That's how long on average, hackers have to use your Social Security number, open accounts, take out loans, and destroy your credit before you even know you've been exposed. By the time you get that breach notification email, the damage is done. Your identity stolen, your financial future at risk, and the company that lost your data. They'll just apologize and move on.

Criminals can take out loans, max out credit cards, and vanish. That's why Aura provides up to $5 million in identity theft insurance and a US based fraud resolution team that works around the clock to shut down fraud fast and get your life back on track.
