Transcript

[Ryan]

Big wrench took a fall.

[Ben]

Oh, my God.

[CJ]

Dude.

[Gavin]

I must have crashed in the womb a couple times, because I am just. I'm ready to crash whenever I realize.

[Evan]

You gotta shut up and just let it die.

[Ben]

If you wake up every morning and you feel great, which I never do.

[Gavin]

Pulled the hamstring pretty bad.

[Ken]

Did you actually in that Barefoot?

[Gavin]

Exactly.

[Ben]

I don't even know if we were ever on track, but we are certainly off it now.

[Ryan]

The rails.

[Ken]

God, I hate when you do that.

[Ben]

Burping the mic.

[CJ]

I think I'd rather have you fart.

[Ken]

Into the mic than.

[Ben]

Or you wouldn't.

[CJ]

Can you.

[Ben]

Okay, so if in the middle of the podcast, I go. Go into a handstand just because I'm trying to get my ass closer to the mic, I would love to actually.

[Ken]

See that you're probably about the perfect.

[CJ]

Height where your butt would be about.

[Ken]

Right there in a handstand.

[Ben]

Well, that would be so out of pocket.

[CJ]

I don't think you could.

[Ben]

We'll work on it.

[Ryan]

You're sick.

[Ken]

Well, we know that, Ryan. What department do you want to get to with him, though? He's sick and many.

[Ryan]

All right, guys, welcome back to the Life Autumn podcast. We have two good friends. It's gonna be chaos today because we have got Gavin and we have got.

[Ken]

Evan, and you got me too.

[Ryan]

Well, yeah.

[Ben]

Yeah, that was a weird one.

[Ryan]

Something about your prebiotic soda doesn't really scream. It's gonna be chaotic to me today.

[Ken]

Hey, you gotta have a healthy gut, man. This is not a plug, but it's better than that shit you guys are drinking.

[Ryan]

Gav's been in town a couple of days now. We've gotten some things done.

[CJ]

Dude, Gab, I haven't hung out with you once. I was just telling Gav. I was like, dude, I'm sorry that I kind of invited you up here, and then I have just straight up avoided you.

[Ken]

Straight up.

[Gavin]

Paul Ryan.

[Ken]

Yeah, he was saying, like, he wanted to. Like, he was like, I'm trying to just dip out here before Gavin sees me and shit, like, at the end of the day.

[CJ]

What's that about?

[Gavin]

You heard I don't like heavies or what you'd like.

[Ken]

Heavy.

[Gavin]

What the fuck? He found out.

[Ken]

This is Gavin's mindset. I don't like heavies anymore, so Ben obviously doesn't want to hang out with me.

[Gavin]

You're thinking I'm a fake redneck, not liking heavies. I mean, you're probably thinking I'm a faker.

[CJ]

I've known that And I have thought that for a while, so that had nothing to do with it.

[Gavin]

Okay.

[CJ]

But yeah.

[Gavin]

All right.

[CJ]

It's good to have you here, though, bro.

[Gavin]

Yeah, dude, it's been fun. I mean, yeah, the pontoon was great. I wish we would have sunk Ken, but we tried.

[Ken]

Yeah, that would have been great.

[CJ]

Yeah, you guys did try. You gave it a good effort.

[Ken]

God, that pontoon, that small one is just so good looking. It looks so good and proper with Ken driving it. It's just amazing. And then you have the big one, you got the little one. It's just so funny.

[Ryan]

I, like, I can't even explain the feeling seeing Ken be excited about a gift.

[Ken]

Genuinely happy. Like, he went for the hug.

[Ryan]

I have seen you guys give him gifts, and he's literally thrown things at your face.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And so when he started moving towards you like this, I was like, oh, no, is he going to tackle him?

[Ken]

I wasn't sure what's going to happen. Yeah, like, like body slam me, you know, whatever. No, he was having a great time with it. And then until his chair broke.

[Ryan]

Yeah, he was done like that. He was not happy.

[Ken]

Who the he gonna sit?

[Ben]

He wasn't even that mad when he blew up the motor. It's like, man, a little inconvenience when.

[Ryan]

That chair went down.

[CJ]

Yeah. He was actually just of a switch.

[Ken]

This is lame.

[Ben]

About 90 cents and screws could fix it. He blows up like a thousand dollar motor doesn't care.

[Ken]

Well, where the was he supposed to sit, Evan, when he was getting hauled back?

[CJ]

No, dude, he pissed off leaning up against that center council, arms crossed. Like, dude, dude reminded me of that. That meme of Pablo Escobar when he's like sitting on the. On the swing set. Like board, arms, arms kind of slumped by his side. Or he's like leaning up against a wall, like, just like waiting around. Like, what am I supposed to do now?

[Gavin]

Not having it.

[CJ]

Meanwhile, you guys are trying to sink his boat.

[Ken]

Yeah, that. Maybe that's what part of the.

[CJ]

The whole thing would have been. Like, the boat starts going down, what's he gonna do, stand and watch it sink?

[Ken]

So it wasn't in the video, but when I was in the Centurion and he was stranded, I filled up all the ballast and I started doing like circles around him. So that's why he was rocking. And then, you know, just that clip of the chair breaking due to the rocking. So it wasn't necessarily his fault the chair broke. So I think that's kind of what ticked him off. It was like he was getting all rocked in the boat, which is an inconvenience. He wasn't loving that. And then his chair breaks.

[Ryan]

Nobody likes when you're rocking the pontoon, you know?

[Ken]

Yeah, don't rock the boat.

[Ryan]

Do you think that after last week the wrenches got a little like, confident because the chair broke? The motor blew up right away.

[CJ]

So after the podcast.

[Ryan]

After the podcast. Sorry, excuse me. Oh, yeah, they kind of got caught slack in this week.

[Ben]

The good news is I actually just got a report from Wrenches this morning that the motor might not actually be blowed up. It was just there was so much weight with Ken sitting on the back that I think we just hydrolocked it.

[CJ]

No way.

[Ben]

So I think we. They're gonna try to just pull the plugs and fire it up. Hopefully. Fingers crossed.

[Ken]

Wow.

[Ben]

Fingers crossed.

[Ken]

Interesting. So kind of got a counterweight it.

[CJ]

I think we should just pull the Hummer pontoon motor off, which is a 115, and put that on it.

[Ken]

Would that would. Wouldn't that be too big?

[CJ]

But that'd be funny.

[Ben]

Well, I. I mean like the weight, it seemed maybe you could weigh the front down, like put it to me with a couple hundred pounds in the front.

[Gavin]

No such thing as too big. There's no such thing.

[Ryan]

We just want to put another chair.

[Gavin]

No, I'm talking about motors. What are you talking about?

[Ben]

What do you know about motorboating, Gav?

[Gavin]

What Know about motorbike? I grew up on boats, so I know a decent amount.

[CJ]

What do you guys know about podcasting? You guys have been podcasting a lot lately, huh?

[Ben]

I do love podcasts.

[Gavin]

Oh man.

[Ryan]

Late night podcast, maybe.

[Gavin]

I mean. Yeah, dude, it's been a great three days here. We already burned down Zorpus last night.

[CJ]

I've just traded Rich in for you. Yeah, dude, Rich straight up. I don't know if. If he like sent you like a warning signal, like a smoke signal.

[Gavin]

Uhhuh.

[CJ]

But like, dude had. He couldn't get out of here fast enough.

[Ben]

I think he checked into like a 30 day rehab.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ben]

You didn't.

[CJ]

But no, no, the guy is still not recovered.

[Gavin]

Dude, I'm barely recovered. Pulled the hamstring pretty bad.

[Ken]

Did you actually in that barefoot?

[Gavin]

Exactly. Did it barefoot?

[Ben]

No.

[Gavin]

What say, Gav?

[Ben]

I know that you went out with the intentions to barefoot, but being the ski never left, I don't think you tore it barefooting, water skiing.

[Ken]

He was attempting to barefoot though, when he did it.

[CJ]

Did you tear it trying to get up?

[Gavin]

I popped it. No tear. Hopefully no Tear. Trying to get up. Not good.

[CJ]

That's how you did.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ken]

I would have figured your gnarly fall.

[Gavin]

I don't know what it was. I think it does Batman, because I was just fighting that board the whole time trying to get up.

[CJ]

Dude, Barefooting is just like the gnarliest thing to me. The fact that people know, pretty much know the outcome of it.

[Ryan]

Like you're not.

[CJ]

Nine times out of ten you're going to end by just eating shit really hard. I still do it.

[Gavin]

Think it's the most unsafe water sport you can ever do by.

[Ken]

By far.

[CJ]

Yeah. There's like pretty much no safety precautions, nothing whatsoever. Like the most, I guess protection that you can have is like how thick your wetsuit is.

[Gavin]

That's about it. And how hard you tuck your chin, apparently.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[CJ]

I think barefooting is one of those kind of lost arts that maybe isn't going to carry over from like generation to the next.

[Ken]

It's dying for sure.

[CJ]

It's for sure dying. But like the older generations are still doing it, you know, because they grew up doing it more and they don't think it's quite as insane. But the younger generation look at it as like a bunch of lunatics.

[Gavin]

Well, you're going 45. I mean, what are you, what are you thinking? You're going to smack the water at some point.

[CJ]

Yeah. It is not going to feel good.

[Gavin]

No.

[Ryan]

Even if you do it correctly at the end, you still have to stop somehow.

[CJ]

Yeah, exactly.

[Ken]

And what they kind of do like that fall back though. Fall back on their butt. But yeah, I'm sure it's still, you know, there's going to be an impact.

[Ryan]

Not like grace.

[Ken]

They kind of just slide on their butt until they.

[Gavin]

I can't think of a much more dangerous sport.

[CJ]

Probably three wheelers.

[Gavin]

Kind of debatable.

[Ken]

Run your leg over.

[Gavin]

Run your head over that.

[Ken]

That's even worse.

[Gavin]

I've done that a time or two.

[CJ]

Dude, it is amazing. Every time I watch one of your videos, you're still taking falls. And I'm like, this guy just keeps eating these.

[Gavin]

Just keeps eating.

[CJ]

I know.

[Ben]

It's falls for breakfast.

[CJ]

It is actually insane.

[Gavin]

Every video just blessed with it. I don't know what happened at some point. I mean, I must have crashed in the womb a couple times because I am. I'm ready to crash whenever. I mean, we can go crash, right?

[CJ]

Your mom had to have fallen down.

[Gavin]

She must have been on a couple quads, three wheelers, dirt bike. I mean, I'm just.

[CJ]

I don't know Gavin's first photo on a three wheelers. His mom, she's pregnant.

[Gavin]

Gavin in the belly.

[CJ]

This boy makes a lot more sense now.

[Gavin]

That's where it came from. So, yeah, taking crashes, I'm not sure.

[CJ]

If you take them that much better than. Than the average person. I think that your tolerance of pain is just a lot higher than most. Like, I see you limping around and you're just like, yeah, just pop to him about the ham.

[Gavin]

I'm starting to come to the same conclusion. After I crashed the mini tractor. Man who. That was a bad one. Yeah, I almost broke my shoulder. My camp broken still, but I'm all right. I can't believe you didn't.

[CJ]

That thing straight up ran you over.

[Gavin]

I might have. Yeah, it did run me over too.

[CJ]

Why keep calling him a mini tractor? I was going to ask you.

[Gavin]

Lawnmower. I've wanted one of these since I was a little kid. It's a mini tractor.

[CJ]

If Ev was riding it, he could probably call it a tractor. But it's a lawnmower for you.

[Ben]

It's like the fancy way to call it, you know. I don't have a lawnmower. I got a lawn tractor. You hook a trailer up to the back, you got some attachments, right?

[Gavin]

It's a mini tractor. Is there no such thing as a mini tractor then?

[CJ]

Yeah, those are not mini tractors. A mini tractor will have like a blade in the front or something at least connected to the back.

[Ryan]

I don't know this for sure, but does it have a PTO shaft?

[Gavin]

No PTO shaft.

[Ryan]

Then it ain't a damn track.

[Ben]

I agree. I was looking for that and I couldn't come up with it. But that's what it needs.

[CJ]

It needs the power.

[Ryan]

Someone out there that owns both a large tractor and a small tractor, they can maybe tell us, but it's. That's like calling. When Ken called his bronco a truck. Oh, that thing ain't a truck.

[Gavin]

All right, fair enough. I. Yeah, good analogy. I still think it's a mini tractor.

[Ryan]

See, when you got hurt barefooting or attempting to barefoot, whatever we're going with, I got really nervous because I go, damn, dude. Gas family, his friends, they aren't going to let him come and back to hang out with us because every time he gets hurt, as shown in the montage in the video, which was actually a pretty impressive resume.

[Ken]

It's getting very.

[Ryan]

But then I watched a couple videos or I remembered back to a couple of your videos. You do fall in every one of your videos pretty much.

[Gavin]

I take a decent fall every time, almost.

[CJ]

I mean, I think it was the snowmobile video of yours that I watched, and you crashed legit seven times.

[Ryan]

Yeah. It's like you weren't even hanging on to the bars.

[Gavin]

Bounced off. I just had a snowmobile.

[CJ]

You were straight up hitting an anthill, and you would fall off. I'm like, bro, there's no way that you're holding on right now.

[Gavin]

I was going full throttle, though.

[Ken]

He was doing no handers. He was practicing his no handers.

[Gavin]

I'm learning, though. I got the snowmobiles down. I'll show you guys next sled season.

[Ryan]

Really?

[Gavin]

Yeah, dude. Yeah.

[CJ]

Didn't look like it, dude.

[Gavin]

I'm breaking out the Yamaha Fate. We made the snowmobile jet ski, too.

[CJ]

Yeah. That was great. That was a great idea.

[Gavin]

Thank you.

[CJ]

We were gonna do that last year. I told you this. We were gonna do that. You already did it, but we're still gonna do it. I just want to clear that up. I just want to clear that up. But that is one of those things. Like, you got to come with us, like, out. Out into the mountains on a snowmobile trip. Like, I cannot imagine how sweaty you would be sweating right now. Like, yeah, he's. He's. I guess.

[Ben]

Like a dog that just went swimming in the swamp. You want to, like, cuddle up with him, but it's like, oh, my God. What is that? That's what it would smell like when Gav gets done snowmobiling. Like a dog.

[Ken]

Weird analogy that you, like, want to cuddle up with them, but you're like.

[Ryan]

When Waffles comes over, you know, the. The neighborhood dog, and he smells like the swamp.

[CJ]

I just saw him the other day.

[Ryan]

Really? He is still kicking. He's getting a little old.

[Ken]

When I saw him, I thought, man, I haven't seen that guy in a while.

[CJ]

I know.

[Ryan]

Should have, like, lured him over with some treats.

[Ken]

Yeah, he looked like he was on his way over.

[CJ]

Really?

[Ken]

We were just going over to Evans.

[Ben]

Yeah. I haven't thought about peanut butter, but waffles, like. Yeah. We haven't seen him since, you know, prior to winter last fall.

[Ryan]

I feel like that's the best way that we could have a dog is just like, a neighborhood dog that rolls through.

[Gavin]

You guys kind of do. We were just chilling on the couch. And you had a dog walk in earlier.

[Ryan]

Oh, yeah, That's a neighbor's dog. They asked us to try to send it away because they don't want it hanging out here around their own crow, you know?

[CJ]

Influences. Can't blame them there.

[Ken]

Starts coming over at 10 o' clock at night, every night.

[Gavin]

Start hanging out with Evan. Yeah.

[Ben]

Go straight to the peanut butter cabinet.

[Ken]

Yep.

[Ben]

Whoa, whoa.

[Gavin]

Chill.

[Ryan]

Comes home at 4am Waddling or wobbling maybe is a better term to use.

[Ken]

Maybe both.

[CJ]

Wobbling.

[Ben]

I'm the one wobbling.

[Ryan]

You and the dog. Well, there was some exciting news, like a seaboy CV milestone we just passed. We posted our 500th video the other day.

[CJ]

A lot of videos.

[Ken]

Really?

[Ben]

Not counting podcasts.

[Ryan]

Not counting podcasts. We're at, what, 128 now over here on that?

[Gavin]

It's a lot.

[Ryan]

That's a lot of ideas.

[CJ]

How many hours of content is that?

[Ryan]

That's a great question.

[CJ]

Let's just say each video is, on average, 17 minutes.

[Ryan]

And we've got some, like, outliers, as in the, like, you know, year in reviews. Those are hours.

[CJ]

Car tours, let's say 26.9 days, really worth of content.

[Ryan]

So you could watch our videos for 6.9 days straight.

[Ken]

Almost four. Coming up on. I mean, seven. Sorry, four.

[Ben]

We should do a challenge where we lock ourselves into a room and we can't leave until we burn through them all.

[Ken]

I think we should do that just for you, Ev, because, you know, you still got like. Like the. The early days and those. That's a real challenge because they weren't very good.

[Ben]

Yeah, I probably. There's probably 30% of the vids, the early ones that, you know, I've picked through them and watched some, but certainly not all of them.

[Ryan]

You and Ken could do it together.

[Ken]

Yeah, Ken still hasn't even seen the new ones.

[CJ]

Yeah, he hasn't seen any of them.

[Ben]

I'm only down to be locked in for seven days. If Gav can come with, I'm in.

[Ken]

Gav's going to leave there limping, too.

[Ben]

We limped on the way in. He waddled on the way out.

[CJ]

No, no, it's just an empty jar of peanut butter.

[Ben]

You guys don't need any. Oh, Lord.

[CJ]

Oh, Lord.

[Gavin]

Gosh, Evan, you shouldn't have brought me into this.

[Ben]

You brought yourself, buddy.

[Gavin]

No, you bring me into it every time.

[CJ]

Speaking of bringing people into things, Gav, what's up with you bringing your sister into pretty much every conversation we have?

[Gavin]

What are you talking about? No, I do not. Dude, it's because, Gavin, certain people around here that like to talk about my sister.

[CJ]

Ken.

[Ken]

Ken talked to her?

[Gavin]

Is he talking to her?

[Ryan]

What do you think he's doing right now? Dude, he's not talking to us.

[Gavin]

I don't want to think about it, but I don't know. My sister's awesome. There's nothing else to talk about.

[CJ]

You're in her.

[Ken]

Clearly. You think she's awesome.

[Gavin]

Easy, easy. No, no, she's. She's good, though. She's good.

[Ryan]

Oh, man. So this morning, Evan was a little bit sleepy. So normally Evan chaperones around Gavin and, you know, make sure he's fed and has activities and stuff like that to do, but since he was sleeping, I took Gav out for breakfast this morning. We went to the local coffee shop. Got a nice sandwich on the way back. Yeah, I said, you know, Gav, you gotta. You gotta drive the vet.

[Gavin]

Unreal. I can't even talk about it, right? I can't even talk about it.

[Ryan]

That'd be good because, man, on a platform like this, if we talked about something. Yeah, could be bad.

[Gavin]

Oh, my goodness. I mean, that is the baddest mama Jama ever, though. I mean, it feels like you're in spaceship too, with how it's designed. It's hugging you right in there.

[Ken]

Pretty crazy.

[Ryan]

So obviously, you know, you bring your new friend.

[Ben]

That's a little crazy.

[Ken]

What, do you laugh?

[Ben]

No, no, I. I got nothing. I got nothing.

[Ryan]

I didn't.

[Ben]

I didn't really have nothing.

[CJ]

What were you saying?

[Ken]

What were you laughing about it?

[Ben]

Well, I don't know. I just had a few things cooking, and then Ben gave me a look, made me giggle. It's that simple. Carry on.

[Ryan]

Oh, God.

[Gavin]

Keep going.

[Ryan]

Right, so obviously, you know, you have your buddy in the car. You got to show how fast that car is and make a bunch of noise and all that. So we're coming out of cormorant this morning, and I go, gav, look. You know, if you pull those two levers in, you can rev it up while you're driving. Kind of fun.

[Ken]

Do that.

[Ryan]

Do a little pull, just up to the speed limit.

[Gavin]

Nothing over, nothing over.

[Ryan]

And we crest the hill. And there was a member of law enforcement that was standing outside of his car and had someone else pulled over. But we had just recently been making a lot of noise coming over.

[Ken]

He heard you for sure.

[Gavin]

Yeah, had to have.

[Ryan]

And then, so as I panic, trying to put the car in, like, tour mode, you know, make it real quiet.

[Ben]

You drop two gears.

[Ryan]

I put it in track mode. It goes back far, making a ton of noise. I start smacking buttons. I believe Gavin's got it all on video. And I just.

[Gavin]

Oh, yeah, we were filming it.

[Ryan]

That's awesomely panicked. Just shit the bed and I, we. We rolled the windows up, we clicked it in the eighth gear, and we had the longest, quietest drive home that we possibly.

[Gavin]

So bad. Thanks for showing off, though.

[Ken]

Should just put in neutral. Had Gavin push you home.

[CJ]

That'd be quiet.

[Ryan]

I should have had you hop in the. In the driver's seat then. And then you could have gotten the ticket.

[CJ]

Oh, I thought Gavin was driving.

[Gavin]

No, no, no, no.

[Ryan]

I had taken over at that point. Oh, okay.

[CJ]

What were you doing then? If you had the driver's experience where it was. It was tight and hugging you.

[Gavin]

I was driving. And then we switched over at the C store, and Ryan's like, let me show you what this bad girl is all about.

[CJ]

What's so funny?

[Gavin]

Tell me what's so funny.

[Ken]

Just. I just.

[Ben]

I'm just envisioning you guys.

[Gavin]

What do you say we burned down corn rot tonight, give a run?

[Ken]

I think that's inevitable. I think it's inevitable. It doesn't matter what day it is for you guys. It's actually Friday, so it's socially acceptable to burn down the town now.

[Ben]

Yeah. Nikki, Joe's coming to town. We can shore a real good time. Gav.

[Gavin]

So I'm really not gonna sleep tonight.

[Ken]

Evan's girlfriend's come to town. You guys are gonna show a real good time.

[Ben]

Did you just invite yourself into my girlfriend?

[Gavin]

No, no. I'm in the bedroom right above you.

[Ryan]

Just nearby. Brother.

[Gavin]

I'm not saying another word. Let's stop. Let's stop that. Never have.

[Ben]

Door flies over you. Need some help?

[Gavin]

Never heard that one before.

[Ken]

He's also. Oh, lord.

[Ben]

We have gone so far off track here. I don't even know if we were ever on track. But we are certainly off it now.

[Ryan]

The rails. The rails are gone.

[CJ]

Ryan, get us back on track.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Realist in. Realist in.

[Ryan]

I feel like we're just off track because it's been so damn rainy here. We can't film anything.

[CJ]

We're.

[Gavin]

We're all cooped up.

[CJ]

That's what made Evan this.

[Ryan]

The weather. It's the weather.

[CJ]

Yes. Seasonal sexuality, climate change.

[Gavin]

Four different sexualities. Unbelievable.

[Ryan]

Four.

[Gavin]

Four seasons. Okay, so he changed. Just.

[Ryan]

Just out of curiosity, run me through the Four sexualities. Four seasons. I. I can't believe we're going down this road.

[Gavin]

Summertime. Apparently, he gets a little gay when it rains.

[Ben]

Well, yeah, because I look up, you see that rainbow. I can't help it.

[Gavin]

It's America, dude. You do you.

[Ben]

Brother, I'm saying.

[Ryan]

Fair enough. Fair enough.

[CJ]

Okay. What does he feel in the fall.

[Gavin]

Fall comes around, man. He's getting a little bit more spiced up. He's getting a little bit more spiced up. He's double swinging it. He's bisexual and.

[Ben]

No, no, no. That's just a little crazy.

[Gavin]

Is that crazy?

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Gavin]

You're not just gay.

[Ken]

He's just gay when it rains.

[Gavin]

All right, maybe he's just gay when it rains and he's straight the rest of the time.

[Ben]

I'm like, this is so far south.

[CJ]

So when's the part about Gavin coming.

[Ken]

In your room when Nikki's here? What?

[Gavin]

Did you. Did you guys just talk about that?

[Ben]

Well, yeah.

[CJ]

Why?

[Ben]

Does it.

[Ken]

No, Nikki's gonna be here, so me and Gavin got a long night.

[Ben]

I just meant taking her out on the town, showing her a good time, having a few drinks, playing some pull tabs, you know, nothing weird.

[Ken]

Yeah, I won't be sleeping tonight.

[CJ]

That's what Gavin said, I think.

[Ben]

Well, yeah, yeah, he was. Yeah.

[CJ]

Can get us a topic here. Yeah, we need to get out of the.

[Evan]

Oh, we're missing the hot dog connoisseur. But you guys see, Joey Chestnut is banned from the hot dog eating contest.

[CJ]

Heard about that.

[Ken]

Really?

[Gavin]

Why?

[Ben]

He's sponsored by Vegan dog by Beyond Meats now.

[Ken]

So. Wait, so he's gone vegan?

[Evan]

I guess, yeah.

[Ken]

And he's a hot.

[CJ]

A professional hot dog?

[Evan]

Yeah.

[CJ]

Dude, what was that?

[Ken]

Doesn't seem to make sense.

[CJ]

So what was that bag or what did that. Yeah, because, like, so if you were to take a vegan hot dog sponsorship, kind of knowing that you wouldn't be able to participate in the. In my opinion, the only thing that really makes you a professional eater in the first place is this hot dog competition.

[Ryan]

Is there other competitions throughout the year? Are they doing this monthly or is it just.

[CJ]

Yeah, but if, like your whole brand is.

[Ryan]

Is that one.

[CJ]

Yeah, that one.

[Ben]

Maybe it's one of those deals where he wants to go out on top. So he knew he was going to get banned. He's going to get a bunch of publicity for not doing it, or else we wouldn't even know. But it's all over the Internet and he made a big bag, went out on top. You know, they might have been.

[Ken]

They would let him do it. Right.

[Ben]

But he probably knew that. Maybe knew that.

[CJ]

1.2 million over four years. Joey Chestnut.

[Ken]

Is that eating hot dogs, bro? That's fucking awesome.

[Evan]

Killing your brand.

[Ben]

He's probably a pretty normal. That's probably a bad guy. That's a pretty solid bag.

[Gavin]

No, vegan hot Dogs.

[CJ]

I feel like Joey Chestnut is, like, damn near a household name at this point. Yeah, I'm saying, like, Kobayashi, it seems like he could sell sponsorships. You don't swear to make that 1.4 million, you know, up in other sponsorships that you have five other sponsors, and then it's like you're still growing the brand here versus kind of just shooting it in the foot.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Who's this guy's agent who let him sign this?

[Ben]

But no, Kobayachi was like, the big rival that was like, the guy that was able to defeat Chestnut a few times. Yeah.

[Ryan]

Really?

[Gavin]

Dude, it was big.

[Ben]

It was back in, like, oh, eight. He took him down. It was electric.

[Ken]

Honestly, dude, I wouldn't know who Joey Chestnut is if it wasn't for Micah.

[CJ]

Really, literally.

[Ken]

If it wasn't for Micah having his posters and shit, I would not know who Joey Chestnut is. I don't follow hot dog eating. I don't really even eat hot dogs. I like brats. That's us.

[CJ]

Oh, that's us now.

[Evan]

Why does it sound like something.

[CJ]

I'm not sure if you can be the sus cop on this podcast.

[Ken]

No, I mean, I just. I'm not. I just don't follow hot dog eating that much. Like, I don't know if they're a household name, let alone his rival. Maybe if you're in Mike Salmon's household.

[CJ]

That'S a nightly topic. But Mike. Mike salmon.

[Ryan]

Friends are 10 years Mike.

[Gavin]

What just happened?

[Ken]

You know, we call him Micus. He's like, I don't really like that name. We just are going, mike Salmon.

[Ben]

He always does get down on the salmon salad, so it makes sense.

[Ken]

He loves Salmon.

[Ryan]

He doesn't like Micus.

[Ken]

I don't know. He was like, yeah, I hope it doesn't stick around.

[Ryan]

That's about the worst thing to say. You don't get to choose your nicknames.

[Ken]

Around here unless you're Gavin Little Wrench.

[Ben]

I still call him Little Wrench.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's what I mean.

[Ben]

You gotta.

[CJ]

I don't call him Little Wrench because I. I only have so much. So many things that I can say to him because I need him, you know, on a daily basis to not be upset with me.

[Ryan]

I can only piss him off in so many ways.

[CJ]

Yeah, Yeah. I gotta pick my. Pick my battles with him and calling him a name that he doesn't like. Just one of those things that I'll just let. It's valid.

[Ken]

But with.

[CJ]

Most people.

[Evan]

Say you don't like something, and that name is gonna like stick 10 times.

[Ken]

That's coming from Ken.

[Ryan]

Exactly.

[Ken]

Completely changed his birthday to another normal birthday.

[Evan]

You just have to realize you gotta shut up and just let it die.

[CJ]

You introduce yourself when you're not introducing yourself as cj you introduce yourself as Ken.

[Evan]

There's other little things, though. You gotta let simmer and die.

[Ryan]

But he's picking his battles. He goes, you can call me Ken. You just can't do other things.

[Ken]

Well, you legally change your name.

[Evan]

I mean, it's in the process, but.

[CJ]

Well, I saw.

[Ken]

Yeah, he signed the papers and everything.

[CJ]

Ken, middle name Drake. But he mis.

[Ken]

Ken.

[Ryan]

Dick.

[Ken]

It's not that much money to change your name.

[Ryan]

Yeah, like, but to get you to do it, like, to finalize the paperwork, put everything in motion, legally change your name. You could add your normal first name to that so you don't have to, like, get rid of your standard middle name or forget it completely.

[Evan]

But I think there would have to be more to the story than just.

[Ryan]

Eight years of YouTubing.

[CJ]

More to the story. How much more to the story do you need, Ken? We gave you a name when we were 15 years old, and now the entire world knows you as Ken. Yeah, like, how. How much more to the story could there be?

[Evan]

I don't know. I just feel like there has to be one extra little thing to it. Otherwise, it's just kind of, like.

[CJ]

That's easy.

[Evan]

Kind of cheat.

[Ken]

One extra little thing.

[Evan]

A couple extra little things.

[Ryan]

Okay. Yeah, there you go. Say one extra thing. That'll be done by this weekend.

[Ken]

We'll have that done yet.

[Ryan]

And today, this podcast, likely.

[Gavin]

What would you want it to be?

[Ken]

I don't know.

[Evan]

It just. It has to make sense.

[CJ]

He goes, all right, making a deal with us. Change the lips on the no can do face, and I'll sign the pa.

[Ken]

Hey, Ken, now we have you on. What do you think about your pontoon?

[Evan]

To me, it seems like it was built to fail. Now that I know that I see everything. The fact that there was an intentional hole put in the back of it.

[Ken]

That was just a drain plug.

[Ryan]

And even though even the intentional hole to make it sink failed.

[Ben]

Yeah, well, the big problem was we kind of forgot to take the breather out the top.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Ben]

So that's why that was foiled. But I don't think it would have sunk completely, Ken. It would have stayed floating on one side. We just wanted to see panic a little.

[Evan]

Well, I panicked for a little bit as I was falling backwards in my chair.

[CJ]

That one was unplanned. That one Was that one was not a part of the plan.

[Gavin]

How mad were you? Were you just so angry?

[Evan]

No, it wasn't bad.

[CJ]

Okay. Until the chair broke.

[Evan]

And then C.J. kept throwing a wave at me like, okay, dude, the joke's not funny. Stop now.

[Gavin]

But that's when it was just getting funny.

[Ben]

I think everyone else was laughing the whole time.

[Evan]

Why is me just so funny? Sitting on a pontoon getting tossed around in the waves? I was like, okay, this is lame.

[CJ]

I can't wait to get that motor. I think we know what's wrong with it. So we're gonna get it back up and running because that was a genuine gift from us.

[Evan]

Yeah. I was so excited for about 15min.

[Ken]

Well, it's going to be back running and you'll actually be able to drive it around, take it to the sandbar.

[Ryan]

Maybe get some more footage.

[Ken]

Yeah, no, I think. I think you take that thing to the sandbar and moms are, for one, going to flock to it because obviously you're driving. But for two, when you have mom chaser on the side, it signals to them like, okay, I'm going to have.

[Evan]

A, like, keeping that thing above the water.

[Gavin]

Right.

[CJ]

I agree.

[Ben]

How big are these moms?

[Ken]

Ken's going for, like, quantity. That's going to sink it. Gavin's more like quality. Like, you'd have one on.

[CJ]

Gavin's going for a bottom lake for four bills.

[Gavin]

Four bills. I think we could handle that.

[CJ]

Could you?

[Ryan]

Probably not.

[CJ]

I'm. I'm really excited, though, to see you out in the wild on that thing. But no, that was a genuine gift, Ken. And. And you seem to, like, feel how genuine it was being that you gave us a hug. I don't think we've ever touched like that. Evan, chill.

[Evan]

Most of the time they're a little different.

[Ryan]

The touches or the gift?

[Evan]

Gifts are a little more thank you for Clarif Plumbing related.

[Ben]

Oh, Ken.

[Gavin]

Evan is on his gaydar. So hard, dude.

[Ken]

So hard.

[Ben]

You guys just keep saying the most sus stuff. Just because I giggle about it doesn't mean I'm the weird one.

[Evan]

That was a missed opportunity to put a toilet as the no, because we.

[CJ]

Want you to enjoy it.

[Ken]

We want it to look like almost a production pontoon. Like, we want it to look legit, which it does. We wanted you boating by and people seeing that and thinking, holy, that is the smallest pontoon I've ever seen. I can't believe they make them that size.

[Evan]

The wrenches did do a fantastic job putting that thing together.

[Gavin]

What is up with this.

[Ryan]

Wait, what does your shirt say?

[Ben]

Oh, this is a sick shirt.

[Gavin]

You don't wear helmets, bro.

[Ben]

Thank God you were wearing helmet, man. I feel so bad, but shout out to the vintage plug shop that sent me this shirt, and I can't show it to them because I forgot what it's called.

[Ryan]

EC Vintage.

[Ben]

Yeah, the Eau Claire one.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ben]

EC Vintage.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Thank you, brother.

[Ryan]

But so are you going to take the advice you are literally wearing on this shirt that says, thank goodness you were wearing a helmet?

[Ben]

No, that's Gav. He just ate the fall. And that's me over there.

[Gavin]

Yeah. About to hit me with the front tire. Perfect, dude.

[Ryan]

Big wrench took a fall.

[Ben]

Oh, my God.

[CJ]

Dude, security camera footage.

[Gavin]

We do.

[Ryan]

Yeah, we do see it.

[Ben]

It was crazy. Like, I actually got scared. I think Mike right away made the comment. Usually when Mike falls, I'm laughing like a little girl because it's hilarious. But you can usually tell, like, when someone's hurt or not. If you don't get hurt, falls. Funny. When Big Ranch went down, I was terrified.

[Ken]

It was his first time staying after work hanging with you guys. I know it because on the podcast, you were like, yeah, you know, you never stay after work. Like we said, well, I got a family and dinner. But that. That night, he was excited. He's like, you know, I'm gonna stay after work and hang with Evan. And within 10 minutes, he had slammed on the concrete onto his back.

[Ben]

I do feel a little bad because he hops on the E bike. How do you run this thing? He literally just twists the throttle.

[Ryan]

Go.

[Ben]

And then someone else goes. Put it in eco mode. Like, ah, Eco mode's kind of soft. Just sport.

[Evan]

Just.

[Ben]

Just run it. You're fine.

[Ryan]

And then this happened.

[CJ]

Oh, God, I don't know if I can watch this.

[Gavin]

I haven't watched it yet.

[Ken]

Oh.

[Gavin]

Cody, right there. At least he stood up right away. He got right back up.

[CJ]

He didn't hit his head, though.

[Ken]

Yeah, it looks like he tucked his.

[Ryan]

Hit his shoulder is what he said.

[Ben]

Yeah, his shirt was a little dusted.

[Ken]

Up, a little ripped. Yeah, he went home at night. His wife was like, yep, and this is why you don't stay after work.

[CJ]

Well, dude, can you pull up the security cam footage of, like, 45 minutes from now?

[Ken]

From now into the future.

[CJ]

Let's see what happens into the future of this, where he just sits up.

[Ben]

Against the building for the next hour.

[CJ]

Yeah. Can you just pop up, like, what. What followed that accident?

[Ben]

Oh, man, I really did feel bad. That was a hard Hit it when you least had expected it.

[CJ]

I come out and Big Wrench is just leaning up against the, the garage. And I just found out that he just ate shit about five minutes before this. So I walk out, I'm looking around, I'm like, where's Big? I look over, he's leaning up against a wall. I'm like, oh my God. I'm like, are you good? And he's like, yeah, yeah, it was my fault but well, Evan might have had a hand. And I'm like of course he did. Of course he did. What happened?

[Ben]

I think Tony had a hand in it.

[CJ]

Well, that usually doesn't, that, that doesn't help but what a dream team of making problems. But it just never fails. It never fails. Somebody gets hurt on, on, on your wall.

[Ken]

If you're hanging with Evan, you're running into gunfire.

[Gavin]

Blades of Glory just running into it.

[Ken]

You're running into the fire.

[Ben]

But we have so much fun though.

[Ken]

Yeah, for sure you guys do. There's no doubt about that. That's the great part about there's no.

[Ben]

Doubt about those E bikes is the other night it was like 1:30, 2:00 clock in the morning and all sudden me and Cody decide it's time to ramp.

[CJ]

I will give you guys that. You do have a great time. And I'm happy to see that you're doing it on ebikes now.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[CJ]

That is nice knowing that. Well, our neighbors have been get like I think actually been getting annoyed of it because it's like a 1:30 wheelie excursion in the driveway.

[Ken]

I can't even blame them.

[CJ]

They called Ryan the other more the other night.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I chatted with Evan about him.

[CJ]

One o' clock in the morning, we got her buffed.

[Ben]

Some people are just soft.

[CJ]

I mean get up early, go to work.

[Ken]

You got just allowed motorcycles riding all night.

[Ben]

Don't hate on it. Come join us.

[CJ]

I'm sure 60 year old Susie, who's got to wake up to go be an assistant at a accounting firm, would love to rip some wheelies with you and Cody and Mike at 1:30 in the morning.

[Ryan]

Dude, honestly, every time, every time, like you know, there'll be things that happen. Maybe you walk into the shop and there's garbage on the kitchen counter from last night and when you walk in on it late, early in the morning, you always kind of go like ah, God damn these kids, you know, always up to their tomfoolery. But man, you're there that night. It is. Yeah, it is so fun, dude.

[CJ]

I know.

[Ryan]

Oh God. So I, I, I'm glad that you guys are having fun.

[Ken]

Yeah, I'm glad you're still doing it. I'm. That now that you got the E bikes is like, it solved that whole problem. I don't care one bit. Right. All night, don't even go to bed. I didn't care either. When you were riding dirt bikes. I didn't realize the neighbors could, could hear it. And then once I found out, they were like, not very happy about it. Oh, well, then we probably gotta switch something up.

[CJ]

Well, to be fair, her house is.

[Ryan]

About a hundred feet away from it actually wasn't her. God bless that woman. God bless our near neighbor.

[Ben]

And they still wave when I ride by some for some reason.

[Ken]

Oh, I'm sure they're not mad, man. Were they mad or were they just more like, hey, could you please.

[Ryan]

No, it was so that. Yeah, the kid that called me was his grandpa. His grandpa came in at like 1am and was like, hey, you know those guys, right? Can you please you tell him to quit red bombing the dirt bikes or whatever? Like you know what it was? He like sent me a video of it over Snapchat. And it's just very quietly out his open window so he could get the cool night breeze in.

[CJ]

Just.

[Ryan]

That's quiet for a bit.

[Gavin]

Just ripping wheelies through the parking lot.

[Ryan]

It is a rare occurrence. We try to be, try to be as good as we can.

[Ben]

Well, the problem is we're just so dang busy all day, there's no time to ride.

[CJ]

Yeah, you're so busy riding all day, you have no time to ride. Right? You know, messed up. I walked into the shop the other morning and there was a fleet of three wheelers, half of them leaking.

[Gavin]

One of them. Only one of them.

[CJ]

That's pretty good. I just, I just laugh though. I like, open up the door, I see that you were parked in the driveway. And I was like, oh, nice. Gav got in last night. And then I open up the door and it's like a three room or it's like a showroom from the 80s.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[CJ]

After walking in, I just thought it.

[Ken]

Was funny when I saw him because I was like, like, yeah. Of course he couldn't leave them outside. Someone might steal them.

[Gavin]

No way.

[Ben]

Was it a half a dozen? Half a half a dozen. Three wheelers. That's 15 wheels.

[CJ]

What are you up to now? How many three wheelers?

[Gavin]

Oof, dude, I'd say 35, 40. 35. My goodness, healthy numbers.

[CJ]

How many are you picking up at a time? Are you still doing, like.

[Gavin]

Well, I mean, it's either normally like one at a time, or you're picking up five or six. It just depends on kind of.

[CJ]

Usually like a widow of a farmer that had them in the barn. Or like, what's the story that you're seeing?

[Gavin]

It's either like a widow or just the farmers getting old. He's ready to sell his old three wheelers. The grandkids are kind of over them. That's what you see a lot of is the kids don't care. The grandkids don't care. They're just garbage at that point.

[Ken]

Playing video games or are they riding dirt bikes?

[Gavin]

No, exactly. That's a bad thing. Everyone just wants to play video games.

[Ben]

Oh, and you see Gav rolling up to this poor widowed.

[Ken]

Just kicking.

[Gavin]

It's just so tough because you never know the condition of the motor. I'm buying it without even checking the oil or anything half the time.

[Ryan]

So it's a Honda, so it don't matter.

[Gavin]

Exactly. So most of the time it doesn't matter. But I have gotten bit where I paid a little bit more than I should have. And then motors locked up, blah, blah, blah, blah. So that's why you should always offer low fellas.

[Ben]

Dude.

[Ryan]

See, you had. You had the one that we gave you. Yeah, what. What is that?

[Gavin]

250R?

[Ryan]

The 250R. So you had the 250R that we gave you in the garage, and then next to it There was another 250R, and I was looking at one of them. I go, damn, this one looks like the one that we gave you, but it's really clapped out. And then there's another 250R next to it. That looked really nice. What's the deal with that? Yeah, two 250Rs now.

[Gavin]

Dude, we're doing a giveaway. We're doing a freaking giveaway. And I could. I couldn't give away my baby. There's that good. That one holds a special place in my heart.

[Ryan]

And almost got kidnapped for it.

[Gavin]

I almost. Yeah, I've killed myself on it.

[Ken]

And he's beat the out of it. He got. He got a mint one for the gift.

[Ben]

I can't believe it has. It doesn't pop.

[Ken]

The mint one's fresh.

[Gavin]

Yes.

[Ken]

Or the giveaway is fresh.

[Gavin]

No, it hasn't blown up yet. I mean, well, I blew up a. Just a gasket, so it was leaking coolant, but we fixed it.

[Ken]

Yeah, that's easy.

[Gavin]

Yeah. Just a base gasket.

[CJ]

Yeah. Man, it looks like, that thing has lived 20 lives since we gave it.

[Gavin]

I'd say 30. Man, I've beaten the crap out of that thing. Oh, and it just keeps going.

[CJ]

Was it worth it?

[Gavin]

Oh, trauma that you got from it now 100.

[Ben]

So it took some time. It had to prove itself to be worth it. It wasn't right away.

[Gavin]

Scary, man. And then I wreck two minutes later. I'm. I'm hurting.

[CJ]

After that, you have a problem, like.

[Gavin]

Going, and, dude, anytime I see a U haul, I'm getting a little tickled. All right? I don't like seeing you. Halls. Do not like U hauls.

[CJ]

Evan, in the passenger seat. Okay.

[Gavin]

No, no. Don't like U Hauls. And then if I see a U haul with the door open, I get even more scared.

[CJ]

Really?

[Gavin]

Oh, just no thinking about the door slammed on me when we.

[Ken]

When we pulled that prank on you. How scared were you on a scale of 0 to 10?

[Gavin]

30. I thought.

[Ken]

Really?

[Gavin]

I mean, I can't even describe it. Very few times have I ever felt like I was gonna die, dude. And I. I didn't think I was gonna die, but I thought I was gonna have to put up a hell of a fight. And there. There's a chance I was gonna die.

[CJ]

No offense, Gab, but, like, what do you think that guy was gonna do?

[Ben]

Women and children get kidnapped? Not.

[CJ]

Not guys built like you. I didn't know. I. I didn't know.

[Ben]

This guy's more blah.

[CJ]

Maybe they were like, can I hold him hostage for his three wheeler collection?

[Gavin]

Exactly. Exactly. I seriously thought when that door came open, it was just going to be seven or eight big dudes with guns.

[CJ]

I.

[Gavin]

That's all I thought it was going to be.

[Ben]

And then what? What are they going to do? I mean, I don't know.

[Gavin]

Kidnap me, take me to Mexico and sell me? I don't know.

[Ryan]

So no offense, because human trafficking is a real problem in this country. But, like, what did you think? They were all going to sit around, like, can you imagine the meeting at, like, whatever sale they do?

[Ben]

Like a cattle. Yeah.

[Ryan]

And they. You. You walk across the stage and they go, how'd you get that one? And go. It was easy. Just a three wheeler back of the U Haul. It was like leading a cat. Cat into a trap.

[CJ]

That's all it was.

[Gavin]

That's exactly what it was. Like. Just put it far back in the U Haul.

[CJ]

Think about how bummed they'd be when they got you there. And they go, jerry, I thought you said this guy's a redneck. And Gav's like, I am a redneck. And they go, he's wearing Lulu socks.

[Gavin]

Dude, get out of our sponsor. Oh my gosh. You can be a redneck and live anywhere. I'll tell you that right now.

[CJ]

Explain the Lulu.

[Gavin]

Chill.

[CJ]

I've never met a redneck that wears Lulu.

[Gavin]

I like comfort. I'm just a versatile redneck. It's kind of how I see myself. I fit in with every group of people. I really feel like, oh, we met.

[CJ]

We met somebody that went to school with you.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Gavin]

No way.

[Ryan]

This. I think his name's Tyler from Adam's Polishes.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[CJ]

To say about you.

[Ryan]

Yeah. It was very bad. Yeah. You guys know. You guys know Gavin Carlson? I go, yeah, shred 80. He goes, I went to high school with that guy. I go, oh, sit down, buddy. We got. We gotta have a chat. Everything.

[Gavin]

Oh, no. Here. Good things are bad.

[Ryan]

No, they were all great things. It was just, you know, things you haven't told me.

[Gavin]

Interesting.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Ken]

Like what?

[Gavin]

Now you got me curious how you.

[CJ]

Were in high school. Yeah. A lot of bedazzled jeans.

[Gavin]

Well, dude, no, I did. Yeah. Oh, that's a tough ninth grade, man. I was still rocking the earrings I had.

[Ryan]

You had earrings?

[Gavin]

Oh, I had a whole collection of Jordans and everything, man.

[Evan]

So you didn't transition to a self proclaimed redneck until you're late in your teens?

[Gavin]

See, I was always kind of. I was still watching. Watching Monster Jam, watching all that stuff, man.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Gavin]

Getting into the countryside. But I was all about basketball and having. Having some swag.

[Ryan]

What.

[Ben]

What pushed you over the edge? What was the defining moment?

[Gavin]

I don't know, man. It was just time to cowboy up a little bit and get the boots out, I guess. I don't know. Something hit me. You know what is might have taken a good fall. Say it. Ben. Just tell me. They're over here whispering.

[Ryan]

I don't like it.

[Ben]

What do you say it was your sister that turned you into a redneck?

[CJ]

His sister was looking up my sister.

[Gavin]

You guys bring up my sister? I don't bring her up. Get out of here, man.

[Ben]

How can I make this acceptable? Redneck.

[Gavin]

That was good.

[CJ]

What do I do about these weird feelings that I'm having? Band aid that says redneck. Slap it on. Yeah.

[Ken]

Socially acceptable.

[Gavin]

Get a couple cutoffs though. The boots on. You're dialed.

[Ben]

Knocking boots in no time.

[Ryan]

You don't dress, I mean, like most people around here at.

[Ben]

Or anywhere.

[Ryan]

Anywhere. Yeah, exactly. Like, what's your fit right now? You got the shred a Shirt, obviously. And then shoes.

[Gavin]

And the boots on.

[Ryan]

And the boots, obviously. I have never seen the. The elderly ladies of Cormorant. It was like Elvis in his prime walk through the coffee shop today.

[Ken]

Dude, you're. You are like in like a middle aged woman's dream.

[Ben]

He caught a phone number at dinner yesterday. Not doing anything but say he likes three wheelers.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Gavin]

She wanted me to fix her three wheeler bed.

[Ryan]

Yeah, he threw it away right away.

[Gavin]

Yep. I did, I did.

[Ken]

Well, I'm sure she was an older lady actually, straight up.

[Gavin]

Exactly.

[Ryan]

She was straight up.

[CJ]

How did that come up that you were like into three wheelers?

[Gavin]

I brought it up. I bring. Have you ever been in a conversation by their table?

[CJ]

Just run me through the conversation.

[Gavin]

So she was just talking about what. What all the boys do with all you guys film and everything. And then I went on talking about my videos and such and I go, do you like three wheelers? She goes, oh boy, I grew up on those bad girls. And then we start talking. Do you got one still? She goes, I got a 110 hiding, baby. Tell me more.

[Ryan]

And then Gav tried to buy it. She did not like that.

[Ben]

You can't buy it, but you can come over and fix it for me.

[Gavin]

That's what she just told me to come over and fix it. I got a little scared, but I was like, all right, all right. Didn't say another word. She walks off. And then I got the ticket. I got the ticket.

[CJ]

Did you offer?

[Ken]

Oh, she's a waiter. Waitress.

[Gavin]

Yep. Oh yeah. I got her number and the permission to fix her three wheeler and then buy it after I fix it.

[Ryan]

Really?

[Gavin]

Yeah. She said I could buy it. I don't know.

[CJ]

You should do it.

[Gavin]

I probably should.

[CJ]

I don't believe that half these deals happen. Gav. I want to see one in. In real time.

[Gavin]

I will show. I'll show you how I feel.

[Ben]

You can make a whole bit out of this.

[Ken]

The problem is this video wouldn't be able to go on YouTube.

[Gavin]

Well, the first half I'd be absolutely.

[CJ]

Wanna be redneck fixes old woman.

[Ken]

Okay.

[Ben]

She wasn't old, for the record, but.

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Gavin]

That was crazy.

[Ryan]

It actually was something though. Dude, dude. Gav walks through the coffee shop and the ladies, I mean, everybody's talking to him. Everybody. The whole place is like, can I get a piece of this man?

[Gavin]

Coffee shop.

[Ryan]

And then we walk out of them to go around and he hops in the orange Corvette and they. They all stop. They got out of cars to come and talk to.

[Ken]

Well, Then it really makes sense.

[Ryan]

Yeah, they're like.

[Ken]

And he drives a Corvette.

[Ryan]

They're like, he's perfect.

[CJ]

He's like older woman's dream.

[Gavin]

Oh, geez. I mean, even the 70 year olds were getting fired up as we were driving away. Oh, God.

[CJ]

I can't imagine. Was bad. A little scary.

[Ken]

What a stud. That's what they were thinking.

[Gavin]

I know. They saw my mullet flying. They haven't seen one of that since 85. Yeah, 85.

[Ryan]

Good Lord.

[Gavin]

But yeah. Thank you for letting me drive that bad girl, man.

[Ken]

That is a good car for you. I could see you in like a C5 Corvette.

[Gavin]

That's. That's kind of how I felt too. But I. I want the. The old 75 Stingray. That's my favorite car. 75.

[Ryan]

Why not 80?

[Gavin]

I know, I know. But I love that split window.

[Ben]

How do you not end up with an 80s El Camino with a freaking three wheeler in the back, Gav?

[Gavin]

Because my best friend has one.

[Ben]

I'm not gonna let you drive it. You probably break it.

[Ken]

You're not.

[Gavin]

Let me take the Trike Fest.

[Ryan]

No, that'd be sweet.

[Ben]

No.

[Ryan]

Evan doesn't even drive it.

[Ben]

Dude, that thing. I will never get the smell out of it.

[Gavin]

Smell of what?

[Ben]

I don't even know. But it'll never be gone.

[Gavin]

Black ice.

[Ken]

What's that?

[Ben]

It'll smell like three wheelers and goose is what it's gonna smell like.

[CJ]

Oh, he's not black.

[Gavin]

My God. Said black ice.

[CJ]

No, you didn't, did you?

[Gavin]

Yes, I did. I know you said black ice. Do I look like the typical black ice guy or what?

[Ben]

Ben loves black ice air fresheners.

[Gavin]

They're a good smell.

[Ryan]

Yeah, they're great.

[Gavin]

You really think they are? It's not bad.

[Ken]

I mean, it's not bad. Now it's going to. Not bad.

[Gavin]

They're a good smell.

[Ken]

It's not bad.

[Gavin]

Smelling it since sophomore year. High school gets a little old, but.

[Ben]

Well, they make different flavors. You don't have to have to stick with the black ice. There's a million trees.

[Gavin]

There is a million.

[CJ]

Would you put it in your Chevy?

[Gavin]

I don't drive a Chevy. Chevys are for a special type of guy. I don't know about those type of guys.

[CJ]

I like Dodge and I follow it up with a Ram.

[Ben]

Ram Ranch.

[Gavin]

Why was that? I knew that was coming. I knew that was coming.

[Ken]

What?

[Ben]

What's wrong with having Dodge Ram?

[Gavin]

Nothing. It's when you start making the Ram Ranch jokes.

[Ben]

What's wrong with Ram Ranch?

[Gavin]

Nothing. Once Again. But I don't like it being associated with me and my dodge.

[Ryan]

I had heard what's here, that Ram Ranch was actually filmed on your property. And that's where you got your seed money to start buying these three wheelers.

[Ben]

Seed.

[Gavin]

Yeah. Start telling everybody that.

[Ken]

Right?

[Gavin]

He started to get me when he was like, yeah. And call it. You knew it was started in Colorado. I was like, yeah, kinda I guess going along. He's like, dude, I thought the Carlsons were involved with it back in the day. I really don't think so. But then he's like, he was so. Coffee.

[Ryan]

Oh, they were. That's actually why they put in the big, big irrigation.

[Gavin]

Get out of here, dude. Yeah, Bad as the lake sharks. I'm not gonna believe you on this one. No.

[Ryan]

Did you actually know they created a fault line through Colorado there filming that movie?

[Gavin]

No way.

[Ryan]

Yep. On your property.

[CJ]

Stop it right there.

[Ryan]

No, on the edge of town.

[Gavin]

Get out of here.

[Ryan]

Feel bad, Gab. I can never tell when I'm actually pissing you off.

[Gavin]

I'm never actually pissed off.

[Ryan]

I know. That's the problem.

[Ken]

What's like sometimes you've been pissed off, Gavin.

[Gavin]

Oh, you ready for this?

[CJ]

Yeah.

[Gavin]

You guys know the most pissed off you guys have ever seen me is when I drenched that 250R and Moab. I felt like the biggest idiot in the world when I got that air filter wet. And then Evan said, well, you shouldn't have hit the damn water, Gav. Oh shit, Evan.

[Ben]

It stressed me out because like I even appreciate that three wheeler is a work of art and you took it into a frickin puddle. That's like the one terrain you're not supposed to drive.

[Gavin]

What else am I gonna do with it?

[Ben]

Like every. You have have 37 other three wheelers made for submarine and I know just one that you got to keep dry.

[Gavin]

I know, but that. Yeah, that's one of the times you definitely saw me a little.

[Ken]

Little booty seem that mad at all to me. I didn't even notice you were mad.

[Gavin]

Good, because I was probably more focused on my broken wrist. Hey, you can take a fall too though, Ev.

[Ben]

You proved that I have been accused of being able to take a fall. Yes.

[Ken]

Yeah, I think it's your density. Both of you guys are pretty dense.

[Ben]

I. I think Ben did kind of hit the nail on the head though that, you know, maybe there is a little bit of pain tolerance or just being used to being banged up all the time. If you wake up every morning and you feel great, which I Never do. Then it's like more of a concern.

[CJ]

It's always self inflicted, but.

[Ben]

Yeah, I mean, some people, like, oh, you know, I might have sprained my finger. I better go to the doctor and get checked out. Like, I've been running this broken finger for 15 years. Never crossed my mind to do nothing about it.

[Gavin]

Run it.

[Ben]

Just run it.

[Gavin]

That's all you can do.

[Ben]

Man, Jeff, that was crazy. He had the same finger I have. I mean, I've seen different broken fingers pointing this way, that way, but never like an identical match. There might be something there.

[CJ]

Like what?

[Ken]

Possibly your father.

[Ben]

No, no, I don't think. I doubt that. But, you know, maybe. Maybe he's gonna teach me how to barefoot water ski someday or something. I think there could be a future in this for us. I don't know where I'm going.

[CJ]

I think you were going somewhere, Sus. I think that's.

[Ryan]

Hell no.

[Ken]

That's pretty sus. A future with you two together, making content.

[Gavin]

Just remember, he doesn't know how to.

[Ben]

Drive a boat doing stunts, you know?

[CJ]

All right, what else we got?

[Ken]

We're gonna get Evan's live reaction to the Montana.

[Gavin]

Don't even show Evan. These boys.

[Ken]

It looks like you would be hanging with them.

[Ben]

Yeah, they look like fake rednecks too.

[Gavin]

I'm not a fake redneck. Oh, I don't want to throw up.

[CJ]

That's what they say when they watch your three wheeler video. Look at Evan's reaction.

[Ben]

I don't even want to look at it anymore.

[Ken]

We've been compared to these guys, Evan.

[Gavin]

Montana boys, dude, I tell you what.

[Ken]

They got way better than us, dude. They're just doing this.

[Gavin]

Yeah, this is a lot.

[Ben]

I mean, clearly they got it figured out.

[CJ]

They're killing it. But when you're good looking, you can just do things like this and. And people will watch. Some of us gotta work for our for a living.

[Ken]

Yeah. What the. They're just literally dancing and looking pretty. How do you even get into this?

[CJ]

Is. Is tick tock dancing still as big as it was? Like, when I think of tickets to be dancing, I think of like Charli D' Amelio or Addison Rae, 2020. Like during COVID Is that still.

[Ken]

I mean, these guys are.

[CJ]

Is he pretty big?

[Ken]

They're pretty big.

[CJ]

A hundred thousand times.

[Ken]

Like, it takes what, 10 seconds to film this?

[CJ]

Oh, I knew it was this song. How many times can you dance to this song and people still watch? I guess Evan doesn't matter.

[Gavin]

But yeah.

[CJ]

So you guys, we're gonna do this you late.

[Ken]

Your late night crew should do this, Evan.

[Gavin]

Let's do it tonight.

[Ben]

Honestly, ours would be way better than this.

[Gavin]

We'd come rolling in on three wheelers.

[Ryan]

I'm gonna throw stones. Living in the glass house, they. They're crushing it. They got a couple.

[Ken]

No, they definitely are. Like, they're. They're pretty well known. I'm just like, damn. Like, that's crazy that they're that well known.

[Ben]

I'm pumped for him. It's just not the content I want.

[Ken]

To consume for sure.

[Ryan]

Do you think if you spent as much time doing other things that maybe some may consider to be destructive, you could look that good? You get that jacked.

[Ben]

That ain't worth it.

[Ryan]

Could you imagine if you.

[Ken]

Evan turns into a muscle if he was just chiseled?

[Ben]

I don't know if it's worth it.

[Ryan]

Dude.

[Ben]

That's a lot of dedication, time, effort. I'm just trying to hang. You'd have to always do some wheelies and have a beer.

[Ken]

You'd have to go to bed on time, have to get up early, proper sleep, eat healthy. No more beer.

[Ben]

Yeah, it would be such a, A drastic lifestyle.

[Ken]

Put the vape down.

[Ben]

I don't know if my body could handle the health.

[Ken]

I feel like you're a pretty strong individual. You could probably just keep eating like, and just like lift weights like once a month and you'd probably get jacked. Yeah, but the way that things go for you.

[Ryan]

Remember the video when we took the sherp to the sandbar and Evan was like kind of.

[Ben]

That's when I was racing dirt bikes.

[Ryan]

Yeah, you were kind of shredded back then. You didn't even.

[Ken]

I did see a video of like the. Just like a segment from like the first summer that when you came on full time, you. You definitely were like a young boy, but like you had like some tree trunk arms.

[Ben]

Well, I was still an athlete then. Like, I was racing.

[Ken]

Do you think it was that or you think it was just the manual labor of working and you were doing that?

[Ben]

No, the manual labor probably definitely contributed too. But yeah, you were just like, I was more motivated. There's more of a reason. Like, oh, I got to go to the race this weekend. Like, I got to do worth of shit. Not going to drink for a few days before the race. But like now there's literally no incentive to not be a piece of Zero.

[CJ]

Reward, quite literally not matter a single bit if you took dead last in this local race that you're running on the weekend. But instead you're making a Video for millions of people the next day. And you're like, it's fine if I stay up till 6:30. I don't have to do anything tomorrow besides for make a video for millions of people.

[Ben]

Exactly.

[Gavin]

You do it great, Ev. Do the best I can.

[CJ]

Whatever you're doing. Yeah, yeah. Whatever you're doing. I'm not.

[Ken]

You don't need to change anything, that's for sure. You're doing great. I. I just think it's a weird thought process though.

[Ben]

Yeah, I think now I'm able. I got a team to pick up my slack. Back then I had to rely on myself.

[Ken]

Maybe you're guys's fault, maybe your neighbors. Yeah, it is our fault.

[Evan]

There he is blaming other people.

[Ken]

Maybe it's just best to be loose though, you know, don't take it too serious.

[Ben]

It depends.

[Ken]

There's.

[Ben]

You don't want to be loose in all areas, cj.

[Ken]

Well, that's true. That's true.

[Ryan]

You look adulting. Dude.

[CJ]

Dude, this is the thing.

[Ryan]

Grapes. It's funny because if you compare like your physical appearance to the day you started tell now it looks like for the last three years you've been working hard manual labor removing asbestos. And then you. It would almost look like prior to that you were working here.

[Ken]

It was like an anti aging. Yeah, the asbestos was anti aging for you?

[Ben]

It probably was. You know there's something in.

[Ken]

Yeah, something to get some put in your walls of your room or something.

[Ben]

Maybe that's why they banned asbestos. They say it causes cancer, but actually it's anti aging serum.

[Ken]

It was really just like in a way by the beauty industry to try and sell some products.

[CJ]

Yeah, yeah.

[Gavin]

No more asbestos.

[Ben]

Bring back asbestos. Make asbestos great again. Good morning, Mike.

[CJ]

Oh, hey Mike.

[Gavin]

Hey Mike. It's afternoon, Evan.

[Ben]

But you just got here so it must be morning for you.

[CJ]

That's funny.

[Ryan]

So this week we raced the Lambo versus the giveaway R8. And prior to that I had seen this video and granted this Lambo is a little more tuned up. I think it's got like 1500 wheel or something crazy like that. But I also know that Ben is not as good of a driver as this and is all I could think of.

[Ben]

You gonna take that?

[CJ]

Well, I mean it's not like I mean anything to back it hasn't won.

[Ken]

A single race in his Lamborghini but.

[Gavin]

He doesn't think he was racing like.

[Ken]

Drag cars or something.

[Ryan]

But I could not get this video out of my head. Every time we did a run to try to get Ben to even get a little bit closer. This is all I was thinking about.

[Ken]

Twin turbo.

[Ben]

Oh, dude, that was the save of the century.

[Gavin]

Oh.

[CJ]

Oh.

[Ken]

He didn't even touch the wall, dude.

[Ryan]

I love that the crowd goes wild on this.

[Ken]

They want to see him pile that thing up.

[CJ]

Dude, that is.

[Ken]

Dude, that is a rocket ship. That's what you need to do, Ben, so you can start winning. First thousand horsepower.

[Ryan]

360 was clean. It was a clean 360.

[Ben]

But yeah, dude, if you're gonna have a fail like that, it's not even a fail. That was a win.

[Ken]

Yeah, that was.

[CJ]

That was. It's like a re entry.

[Ryan]

I love how he stops completely and then the crowd goes wild.

[Ben]

He had to change his pants before he pulled off the track.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[CJ]

Just soiled his underpants.

[Ben]

I do believe we need a new interior.

[Ryan]

If we. If we drop into the comments here. Save the car. But most likely we'll need new seats.

[Ben]

Probably drove home with no music on. I can relate to that. Everyone's had that drive, dude.

[Ken]

Wipes, dude.

[Gavin]

Wipes.

[Ryan]

Comments can need more wipes.

[Ben]

It's going to itch when it dries.

[Ken]

You can always tell when a car is fast, especially with, like, supercars or like, like an R8. A GTR Lamborghini is when they have the. The small 18 inch bead locks and then the massive tire. You just know, like, they. They're not messing around. Like, if you see a guy like that on the street, don't even bother, you know? So, future, just a little advice, Ben. Really don't waste your time with those guys.

[CJ]

I. Believe me, I'm not out street race. I'd probably be better if I was.

[Ryan]

Ben picks on like a couple Civics and stuff like that. Still.

[Ken]

We catch Ben late at night. He's like picking races with Civics.

[Ben]

I actually kick out of those videos. They'll come up on my Facebook where you got the guy in the sleeper Civic running, you know, crazy power.

[Ken]

Yeah, I love that. And it's.

[Ben]

It's great. I love it. It's the dude that built the car in his garage.

[Ken]

It's gutted.

[Ben]

It's just pieced together. And then you got a couple hundred thousand dollars and you just. On them. Yeah, it's very sad.

[Ken]

It's super cool.

[Ben]

Your dog's on top.

[Ken]

Or like back in the day, you used to be able to do this. It would be like a V8 Camaro or like a Mustang or even like Corvettes. And then they'd have like an Evo and it's Obviously got a big turbo on it and they would. Or a Subaru even, and they'd smoke them. I just love that, you know, like the Japanese tuner car nowadays you don't see it as much with like those cheaper cars just because everything is so high horsepower.

[Ben]

Like a V6.

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Ben]

Muscle car is still pretty quick, but.

[Ken]

But not even that long ago. It's like 10 years ago. Like it would. That was like a real thing. And there'd be videos online of guys with like, you know, they just have a boosted up Subaru and they'd be at like the strip and they wouldn't be talking to some guy. They'd be like a car car run and some guy with like a Corvette be like, you want to race for money? And they'd like put the money up and then this guy thinks he's gonna walk this guy because he just has a more expensive, supposedly higher horsepower car and would just get wrecked. And then I remember this guy wouldn't pay him and shit.

[Ben]

Oh, wow.

[Ken]

Yeah, it was like a big thing.

[CJ]

You cheated. Well, I mean, it'd be like boosted boys. Kyle running people in his Honda Odyssey. That's plaid.

[Ken]

That's awesome. So awesome.

[CJ]

Yeah, that was a crazy car. I was talking to him because he was saying that he was gonna build a plad c again, like another one. And I was like, dude, you should put a hellcat into one of them. Like a hellcat swap. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I had that backwards. I told him he should put a hellcat into the Tesla.

[Gavin]

Oh, that's good.

[Ben]

Have you guys seen it?

[Ryan]

All three ways. Honestly, have you guys seen.

[CJ]

This is a legitimate ad from Chrysler.

[Ryan]

That I saw on TikTok of all places is it can do all wheel drive burnouts.

[CJ]

What like Chrysler? Sorry, Minivan. They have their minivan, the Pacifica, and it's.

[Ryan]

They have the all wheel drive version.

[CJ]

And they advertise on their own page.

[Gavin]

That it can do all wheel drive. No way.

[Ryan]

Really?

[Ken]

Those way.

[Ben]

They even have like the, like a body kit on it, right? Like it looks kind. They tried to sporty.

[Ken]

They made it sport.

[CJ]

Sport.

[Ben]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

Like I don't. And then they claimed, you know, it wasn't modified, but.

[CJ]

And then everyone's just like, screw you.

[Gavin]

Make a hellcat van.

[Ken]

Yeah, they really should.

[Ryan]

They should. Before they kill off the hellcat, they should make a hellcat, man.

[Ben]

I know Slim would be in for one.

[Ken]

I feel like a lot of. A lot of guys would put their wives in that for how expensive it'd be. I feel like, they just put them in, like, a Suburban or a Tahoe.

[Ryan]

I think that all the time with Ken's Tesla. Like, just picture the scenario. Guy with a lot of money goes, my wife needs a new car, and I want her to drive a Tesla. So he walks in and says, give me what. What the best test do you have? Give me the best Tesla you got. And so the salesman sells him the $140,000 plaid. Little does the wife know that it's got, like, a thousand horsepower and is, like, damn near a supercar. And then you put somebody who's, like, not equipped. Not saying that all moms aren't, but probably most moms shouldn't have a thousand horsepower.

[Ben]

Maybe she's on the way home from wine night.

[Ryan]

Oh, that's what I mean. And she gets a little buried in the pedal. And then before you know it, she's doing Mach 80.

[Ben]

She looks like big wrench tits over tea kettle before she knows what happened.

[CJ]

Ken, when you drive. When you drive your plaid, though, like, if you're not giving us a ride, does it just drive normal, though?

[Evan]

I don't drive, like, a hooligan all the time.

[CJ]

Right, but, like, Ben does, if you're giving it gas, is it, like, really fast?

[Ben]

Don't give it gas. You give it electricity.

[CJ]

Do you have to literally use, like, your big toe, like. Like spongebob?

[Evan]

I mean, you can put it into a different mode where it's. The throttle's dialed way back. It's way more comfortable to drive it.

[Ben]

I suppose you can do, like, the valet mode on it or whatever. Top it out at, like, 70.

[Evan]

It's called, like, just chill.

[Ryan]

Interesting. Chill, chill.

[Ken]

Just chill, Gab.

[Gavin]

Chill, chill, baby.

[Ryan]

But that's what I mean. Like, imagine you're just not equipped to drive that type of equipment at that speed. And then you start going. You start pressing the pedal, you panic. Before you know it, dude, you're doing 110.

[Evan]

It's not a matter of if you have enough space to pass. It's. Do you have enough space to pass and slow down?

[Ryan]

Yeah, for sure.

[CJ]

Ken let us drive his cyber truck the other day. Shout out to Ken. That was sick. We happen to end up at the drag strip. You can't have a cyber truck parked next to a Lambo without at least running it once. Did you know this?

[Evan]

I didn't.

[Ben]

He was asking me. You were throwing some feelers out there to me, so I can't believe you didn't do anything with the cyber truck.

[Evan]

I was. I was totally expecting that. Thing to come back with something done to it?

[CJ]

No, no, we were actually just using it. But we did drag race at once.

[Evan]

Yeah, you have to.

[CJ]

Okay. All right. That's what I thought you would say. Is there a mode that you can put it in, like race mode?

[Evan]

No, that's the fastest that one goes.

[Ken]

No.

[Gavin]

Okay.

[Ken]

All right. Because he's just got the dual motor.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[CJ]

I mean it still walked my Lamborghini, but did it? No, I won that one, thankfully.

[Ryan]

So I do want to say I caught a little flack being, you know, a fellow electric vehicle guy. My Hummer would spank that Tesla. Right, right. Probably.

[Ken]

For sure.

[Ryan]

For sure.

[Ben]

Can we just see it though?

[Ryan]

I mean.

[Ben]

Yeah, like I think it's actually.

[CJ]

But it's just like nobody wanted to. The quietest race ever.

[Ken]

The race to see this race. They couldn't hear it either. Speaking. So you thought someone. They were going to come back with the Tesla, like something modified to it in a way that would obviously be a prank on you.

[Evan]

Yeah. I mean, just the way Ben kind of proposition. He's like, can we borrow your cyber truck?

[Ken]

Yeah.

[Evan]

Are you using it? I was like, I mean, yeah, okay.

[Ken]

Ken just doesn't fight.

[Evan]

We're gonna do something to it.

[Ken]

He's like, well, already ordered a new one for one. That's amazing, Ken. I mean you just. You stick to your principles, always stay suspicious, but you don't halt the production of the video.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that was great.

[Ken]

So great job. People started polishing some of these Teslas. It looked like a mirror. I think you should do that, Ken.

[Evan]

I hate chrome. And that looks too much like chrome.

[Ken]

It's more of a mirror, which is what chrome is.

[Gavin]

It's more mirror though. Chrome is chrome.

[Ken]

I think you should polish it, Ken.

[Evan]

I already put PPF on it.

[Ken]

It protected the paint for a week and now it's just. It's not even paint. You got paint protection film on your fridge prevents the stainless steel dog.

[Evan]

I just really don't like shiny chromish looking things like that.

[Ben]

You're like kind of half shiny. Sort of.

[Evan]

Yeah. Because silvery things brush stainless steel.

[Ken]

Do you not think it would be kind of a hazard on the road? It's almost like a giant mirror driving around it, which could almost. I don't know, it just seems like it's different angles.

[Ben]

You catch the light.

[Gavin]

Yeah.

[Ken]

It's like blinding people. But also it's like you're looking at. You're seeing yourself.

[Evan]

It's like it would be the best thing for driving in front of you. Because you are notorious about leaving your high beams on following. All it would do is reflect it back to you.

[CJ]

Oh, yeah, that would actually be a safety hazard at night.

[Ryan]

Oh, yeah. Dude, I didn't like driving a disco ball.

[CJ]

I think that's a wrap for this podcast.

[Ben]

Thank goodness.

[CJ]

Probably a little bit more SUS than usual.

[Ryan]

If that was your first podcast, try another one, please.

[Ken]

Bro, if they went to the end of this, they're gonna think all of them are this. Not that there's anything wrong with it. I'm. I'm happy for YouTube.

[CJ]

Well, anywho, thank you guys for making it to the end of this podcast. If you did, make sure you subscribe and come back next week for probably a less SUS episode.

[Gavin]

Yep, yep, yep.
