Ken
You just have to have some kind of decency and respect and what?
Mike
Mike's about to unofficially break a world record with him.
CJ
Dog got a perm, bro. He looks like fucking Napoleon Dynamite.
Dalton
I think I sent like 3 NDAs. Even if I wanted to say something, I literally.
Evan
He's locked.
Ryan
I'm not like, trying to figure out if he's attractive or not, but do people in general.
Mike
What changed now that you're not on the. On the juice?
Gavin
I was kind of sick when we got back from Florida, which made me not want to drink.
CJ
Dude, good job, Ev. I'm proud of you for that.
Gavin
It's been like three days.
Evan
I'm back today.
CJ
I mean, we're potentially going out to. To get some drinks with Travis Pastrana. And you're saying no. Yeah, like that's, that's a lot of self control that you wouldn't have had four days ago.
Evan
I'm proud of you. I really am. I couldn't even say no last night when I went out to dinner. They're like, you want a winter meal? And I was like, yeah, absolutely.
Gavin
Well, and I mean, plus, I'm trying to hit the vintage ride. I'm trying to ride some snowmobiles this weekend.
Mike
So I feel like Evan's got plans back home. That's why he's trying to. He's really turning it down to go hang with his boys. Not because he doesn't want to.
Gavin
It's a multiple factor thing.
CJ
We can just assume it's for the. For the alcohol freeze.
Mike
If I was sober for a whole year, I would break it to have a beer with Travis Pastrana.
CJ
Yeah, I feel like that's a pretty solid reason.
Mike
Yeah, like that's a reason that's worth doing it.
CJ
Pretty cool. I mean, like, the younger you would be absolutely appalled. Can you find out that you turned that opportunity down?
Evan
Can you imagine telling 13 year old you, you're like, Travis is going to call you up for a beer later today and you're going to say no.
CJ
Yeah, me and C.J. were actually talking about this. So the other day, Travis Pastrana texted Micah and was like, hey, I'm in your guys's area too. It was out of the blue. I mean, your guys area. Can I come to you guys shop and check it out? And like, it's bizarre for two reasons. The first one being nobody texts us and just says, hey, I'm in your area. I'm gonna swing by.
Mike
Never happened.
CJ
We live in the middle of nowhere. It makes no sense for people to be in our area and want to swing by. And that's the first reason. The second reason being it was always like, I think everyone in this room's dream to go to Pastrana Land, like Travis Pastrana's compound, his. His shop. And still is. It still is, right? It's just bizarre to me. It's having. I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that he. He asked us to come to our compound.
Ryan
Yeah, right. In most cases it would be like, hey, did you guys hear? Travis is just down the road.
CJ
We should hit him up.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
Gotta get him out doing something. So that was cool.
CJ
It was sweet to have him pull up to the shop. But me and CJ were driving from one of the shops to the other and we drive past like this spot that we used to ride dirt bikes at, like when we were little kids. And like, it's literally just a ditch. It used to have like a little sand hill on it. Right. And C.J. was like, you know, it's funny because like back when we were riding the sand hill, I used to always be like, man, I'd be sick of Travis Pastrana came here and rode this sandhill with us. Makes no sense. Why would he ever do that?
Evan
Like a 13 year old's mentality. I was literally like a 35 foot tall sand hill. But you're like, yeah, he'd love to ride.
CJ
He would probably like this, right? Granted, we didn't ride the sandhill, but it felt, it felt like oddly similar to that feeling.
Mike
Yeah, it's like crazy that it actually was happening, but yeah, it's just odd that he would be in cormorant. There's really not much reason, but he's actually up here to do this big jump over in Detroit Lakes on the lake. I don't know if we can say it or not. We're doing something. I don't want to say the whole plan, but yeah, he's got this like a pretty big jump.
CJ
C.J. says the whole plan. Anyway, I don't want to. I don't want to spoil any details.
Mike
Much more to it, but we're going to be there today and tomorrow to watch it go down.
Ryan
But I didn't really realize like just how familiar with the area he was. So there's a rally called the Ojibwe Forest Rally that he'd been racing since 2004. And he said that's where he performs his best. He's like, you guys have the best roads out here. I'm like, yeah, who knew?
CJ
I Was just laughing though, somebody watching our videos. And then they. They go over to Travis Pastrana's video and he's in our hometown. And then like, they go to. You guys see, Weston Champlin was filming a video in Minnesota and they go to that and they're like, when did Minnesota just become like the spot to be doing like, stunts?
Evan
I thought the same thing.
Gavin
How many places have ice? And then you narrow it down.
CJ
We're pretty.
Evan
I know, but it's so cool because normally Minnesota gets like so overlooked. I feel like, like Wisconsin. Wisconsin's a place in Michigan. Are places of power sports.
CJ
You think so?
Evan
Yeah, I think so. The up.
CJ
Minnesota does get like, a lot of rap for being like, super cold. Yeah, it's super cold.
Evan
Super fucking cold.
CJ
But whenever people are talking about, like, man, what's the worst place that we could go that's freezing and we don't want to go all the way up to Alaska. Minnesota sucks, doesn't it?
Evan
Yeah. They should hear about North Dakota. It's even worse.
CJ
Yeah, right? Like, Wisconsin sucks. North Dakota is even worse. But yeah, Minnesota is just like, kind of like the spot to go, I guess now.
Evan
Yeah.
Gavin
I don't like this chair.
CJ
You don't?
Gavin
No.
Ryan
Really?
Mike
Yeah. I don't really care for those either. Like, they're just flat. Like that needs a better cushion.
CJ
Yeah. Like, you kind of gotta sink into it, Ev. But your belly might be hanging out.
Gavin
When I sink into it, then the. Yeah, then the butt slides right off. Yeah, it's terrible. Sorry, Ryan. Bad chair. Bad chair.
Evan
It was a cheaper chair, so I'm okay with that.
Ken
Just throw Velcro on it or something on my ass.
Gavin
Or the chair.
Ryan
We could use Ken's chairs.
Ken
No.
Ryan
I've got a pair of five thousand dollar chairs.
Evan
Hair.
Ryan
Great.
Ken
I only bought one. My mom bought the other.
Mike
Why the fuck.
CJ
I kind of want to dive into that.
Evan
Ken, you have more money in two chairs than I probably have in furniture.
Ken
I got a specific look that I wanted and it was 4,500.
Gavin
Are they flammable?
Ken
I mean, anything's flammable if you try hard enough. I actually felt like a real idiot when I picked it up because I.
CJ
Didn'T hold it over your head.
Evan
Wait, why? Because you were picking up a thousand dollar chair.
Ken
I didn't strap anything down and I just threw it in the back of my truck and the whole fucking thing just blew apart when I. The second I got on the highway. So, like, I'm in Fargo, just cardboard everywhere. Shit just flew and it was like.
Evan
Not a good look. Strapping your $5,000 chair together in the back of your cybertruck.
CJ
Dude. Just picture this.
Mike
You're.
CJ
I don't know, let's just say a 65 year old furniture salesman. Right? You don't really know what the hell is going on with this new age bullshit, Right?
Evan
You.
CJ
You have this guy show up in a refrigerator and he picks up a $5,000 futuristic looking chair and he throws it in the back of the fridge and rips off like that guy is still just wondering what's going on with the world that we're living in.
Evan
Yeah.
Gavin
Did you pick up your trash off the highway?
Ken
Damn near almost got ran over about four times. But I did pick up all the garbage job, Ken.
Evan
It's scary being on the side of.
Ken
The highway in the city too. It's like.
Evan
Yeah. So where. Where's that chair going? Your boathouse?
Ken
Yeah.
Evan
I haven't been to your boathouse yet, but I know our friend group you're.
CJ
Not going to be invited to.
Evan
I'm not invited. That's what I'm saying. Like I know our friend group and it seems like a place where the concrete floors and oversized fridge were like good decisions. But an expensive chair seems like scary. That close to the water with us.
Ken
I mean, you just have to have some kind of decency and respect and.
Gavin
What?
Ken
And it doesn't have concrete floors anymore. Those got covered up.
Evan
Oh, you didn't do that. What'd you do?
Ken
Lvp.
Evan
Nice.
Mike
That was a good call, Ken. When looks way better looked. Yeah, I. When you were saying concrete floors, I was like, it's kind of. I don't know about that, but it looks way better with the wood.
Ken
Yeah.
Ryan
Nice.
Evan
Well, I'm excited to see it. Hopefully I get the invite. Sounds like I'm not, but seems like a cool place.
Ryan
We're all just like full blown housewarming boat. Housewarming without you. How's everybody else's houses doing? You guys got good heat? Nothing's broken.
CJ
Yeah, I got a text from one of my tenants yesterday saying that his washing machine machine froze.
Evan
Just froze.
Ken
So he's got the heat set super low.
CJ
Like the pipe into his washing machine froze.
Evan
Damn.
Mike
So then what?
CJ
He's just one man? I. I did my books on my rentals the other day. We ain't making money, boys.
Mike
Backwards.
CJ
Yeah, luckily they appreciate, but damn, they.
Evan
Don'T appreciate you, brother.
CJ
Yeah. So I was thinking maybe I could get you over there to replace them.
Ken
Ken, I. I don't do that anymore.
CJ
But you would for a friend, right?
Ken
I don't do that anymore.
CJ
You couldn't just pick up an old trait?
Ken
What do you think the last time I did that was? It was like five years ago.
Ryan
You saying you forgot?
Ken
Let that be somebody else's problem.
CJ
But dude, it's been so cold. Like pretty much all of my rentals have had like some kind of like pipe freezing or some kind of issue.
Evan
Has your house been good? Because your house is old. It's like 100 and some years old. It's been redone. Really nice.
Ryan
Chilling.
Evan
That's good.
CJ
That's good.
Ryan
It's all. That's like over a hundred years old.
Mike
Is it scary living in a hundred year old house?
Evan
There's got to be someone who's died in it.
Ryan
Sorry, that's. Honestly, that stuff doesn't bother me.
Gavin
As long as they got the body out, it's not that big.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah.
Evan
Really. Does the ghost go with the body?
Gavin
I don't know. But it would suck if there was still a body in the house. That would be.
Mike
That's borderline incriminating.
Gavin
I just meant like if Mike bought a house after someone passed away in it, hopefully they got the body out.
Mike
It could be incriminating. They find a body in your house, you're gonna have some explaining to do. And if you don't know where it came from, you're really going to be in a pickle. Listen, I don't know what happened. Yeah, so they all say.
CJ
Is that the buyer's problem? Seller's problem.
Gavin
You have a crawl space or an attic?
Ryan
No.
Ken
So it's been covered up that I know of.
Gavin
Yeah, there's got to be a crawl space. There's always a crawl space.
Ryan
If I find a skeleton, I'll probably like put it together like the ones in science class.
CJ
Hang it on a rod.
Ryan
Yeah, I just like studying the human anatomy.
Ken
It's a free Halloween decoration.
Ryan
Yeah, exactly. A real skeleton.
Evan
Can't put a price that.
Ryan
From 1907, dude.
Evan
Actually though, my house is. When it's this cold cuz it's been like 20 some below. And when you set the heat to. I normally have it set at like 69. You'll wake up in the morning when it drops down to 35 below with wind. And it's just 65 degree in the house. The heat just never turns off all night.
CJ
Just crazy. Are you spending like a ton of money in gas or. Do you have gas or.
Evan
Well yeah, I just saved so much with my electric car. But yeah, no, my Propane bill and my electricity bill are both nuts.
Mike
Ken, how is our house at holding heat, good or bad?
Ken
The main floor is great where I live. In the basement. It. It's freezing.
CJ
Really?
Mike
I actually got a little. I like it cold. I like it cold.
Ken
I've got a space heater.
Evan
Like, you guys could switch.
Ken
It's in, like, the 50s in the basement. If I don't have a little space heater going.
Evan
Holy.
Mike
See your breath.
Ken
So earlier this week, CJ's girlfriend Alex, we show up at home and she's like, it smells like gas outside.
Evan
Oh, God.
Ken
So, like, you know, I was like, oh, yep, that's definitely the smell of natural gas. So call, you know, of course you call them. And then they're like, get out of the area as soon as evacuate. Don't turn any lights on or off, blah, blah, blah.
Mike
It's 10:30 at night. Alex is easily influenced, and so she's immediately spooked. Like, she thinks, like, she forgot her phone in the house, getting out so fast. And I'm over here, like.
Evan
Like, I'm going to take a shower.
Mike
Like, I'm not trying to deal with this shit right now. Like, you know, I. I don't think we need to evacuate the houses outside.
Ken
If that thing did catch fire, it would have just been a giant fireball.
CJ
So what happened?
Ken
They sent a guy out and it was, like, just leaking out of the meter, which, thank God, because it's. You know, if it's past the meter, that's our responsibility. And he's like, well, I can't do anything, so I would have to leave. But it was, like, on the meter, it was leaking, so he just had to replace it.
Gavin
You think someone was trying to sabotage you?
Evan
Yeah, it seems like. It doesn't seem like the thing that would just start.
Ken
You've got a suspicious look in your face.
Evan
Ken was just trying to tear down another house.
Ken
Would have been a nice insurance payout, but I don't.
CJ
I don't think you can go on your podcast and say that.
Mike
I mean, it didn't happen.
Ken
Insurance is for stupid people. If you.
CJ
Oh, okay, hold on.
Mike
Keep going.
Evan
Okay.
Ken
You should be able to do something stupid in the insurance pays for it.
Mike
So, yeah. So basically, Ken and I waited outside the house for like, an hour in our cars at, like, till, like, probably, what, 11:30. It was just annoying. Cause, like, I go to bed early typically, and I'm like, this is everything up? And it was all just a waste. And this. The thing is, is I already knew it was Leaking the day before. I just didn't investigate it because Mike came over and he's like, smells like propane or something out there. And it was like, just so goddamn cold out. And I was like in my boxers or something, and I was just like, I'm not going to go out there.
Evan
And doesn't smell like propane in here.
Mike
Fine. It's fine. So I just go to bed, know this was like 24 hours later that Alex comes home and mentions it. And then I'm like, I should probably go look. I go out, look, realize it's coming off that it's like walk inside, you know, Ken, is it bad if, you know, natural gas is leaking off that?
CJ
He's.
Mike
He was like, what? He like, you know, goes out there, looks at it, he comes back, yeah, that's bad. I'm calling the calls them. They're like, evacuate the house.
Evan
I'm like, God damn.
Mike
You guys didn't even know it, but this has been happening for over 24 hours.
CJ
I slept like we got.
Mike
But yeah. So then we're sitting out there just wasting bunch of time sitting there watching. A lot of things go wrong when it's this cold out. Like, vehicles don't want to run, obviously. House.
CJ
It just really is hard on.
Mike
On anything when it's negative 22 degrees out.
CJ
Yeah.
Mike
It is amazing that anything can live outside, like deer, squirrels, rabbits, birds. I don't know how they do it. Fish, you know, feral cats, like, you know, just like lunchbox. Like, how do they do it? It's amazing.
CJ
Yeah, it's crazy.
Evan
Have you said you're doing a vintage ride this weekend?
Gavin
Not particularly. Me riding a vintage sled. Show up on a sled and hang out.
Ryan
Yeah, no vintage.
Gavin
Go see what's going on. Yeah, no vintage sled for me, though.
Ryan
If there's one thing about a vintage ride, it's that you want to be sober. I know that's not why.
CJ
It was just fun. That's good, Ev, that you're sticking with this trend.
Evan
Yeah. I'm proud of you.
Mike
How many days have been like two.
Evan
More days and yesterday? Just one day at a time.
Mike
Ryan, when's the last time you went two days without drinking?
Evan
Until last night, then I think I'd had like four, but I don't know. I just. It was this habit. I just sat down at the restaurant and he went, you want a winter mule? And I said, yep, and then entered down. It just showed up to my table. And then I was like, fuck, I'm not supposed to be drinking oh, really? Yeah.
Mike
Are you not supposed to?
Evan
Well, I'm not supposed. I'm not supposed to. As in rules that I've enforced by myself. Like, I'm just trying not to try to avoid.
CJ
Right, yeah. Because of our challenge.
Evan
Because of our fitness challenge.
CJ
Gotcha. Have you guys been working out?
Evan
Fuck yeah.
Mike
No, I have.
CJ
No, I thought about 3 and 3, so. 3 and 3.
Ryan
I thought about it.
CJ
All right, so let's talk about it. Maybe chalk that up as a quarter of a percent.
Evan
There we go.
Ken
Justin did give me a snap card and I was considering taking it and then I was like, I'll do that later.
Mike
Work out another day.
CJ
I've been in the gym for the last week and dude, it is weird how many subs are in like the gym that C.J. and I and Ryan work out at, like the amount of place. Yeah. The amount of people that are wearing like the merch too. But it's like I've been in there at like 9:30 and it is like packed full of just like under 25 year old kids.
Mike
Yeah.
CJ
And I'm just like damn near pm. Pm yeah. And I'm like, damn, does nobody sleep anymore? It's like the most bizarre thing. Like, it's like popping.
Mike
Yeah, dude. When I was their age, like, it's. They probably don't need that much sleep and they're just. It's fun. You just go to the gym, you got all your buddies, you're just kind of like you're doing something a little bit.
Gavin
They're not old enough to go to the bar yet.
Evan
Yeah.
Gavin
What else are they gonna do?
Mike
You know, you're doing something positive, but you're also getting to hang and kind of chill at the same time.
CJ
I was laughing though, last night. I was in there and there's just like a bunch of younger dudes in there and they all kind of have like the same haircut and look the same. And then I was like, damn, dude, everyone in here just looks like Dalton. And then I go, holy, that kid looks like Dalton. And he turns around, it was Dalton. I was like, oh, yeah, I forgot. Dalton got a perm, bro. He looks like Napoleon Dynamite.
Gavin
Don't forget about the spray tan.
CJ
Did he get a spray tan?
Gavin
Yes, he did.
Evan
He said he did self tanner, but I don't know.
CJ
For his Tick Tock. Yeah, he got a spray tan for his tick Tock. Yes, man. He's really. He's investing in his content, dude.
Gavin
He was looking a little too pasty.
Mike
I think part of the allure for Dalton's videos is being a good looking guy, so, like, he needs to really make sure he's keeping up on his looks.
Evan
Top of his game.
Mike
Facials.
CJ
Spray tans does help.
Mike
Facials, pedicures, facial curls in the hair. All that, I guess.
CJ
Yeah. If I had, like, a bunch of chicks that followed me and I was like, a young dude, young, strapping lad like Dalton.
Mike
Yeah.
CJ
Maybe care about more. A little bit more about that too, I guess. But, yeah, I've just been rocking with the same tubby milk bag look. It's been on our YouTube channel for the last eight years, and it's working.
Gavin
You don't think a spray tan would have made a difference for you?
Ryan
Chocolate milk.
CJ
Chocolate milk bag.
Ryan
There's a difference between, like, really caring about how you look and then bringing it to the spray tan level.
Mike
Spray tan in the middle of February in Minnesota.
CJ
Everyone that I tell, like, in the gym, people come up. I'm like, yeah, we're doing this 100 day challenge, and words kind of spread around. Like, some people come up and ask me about it.
Evan
Now, so many of my friends are hopping in on it.
CJ
Are they?
Evan
Yeah. I got Blake in Arizona. Jeff and Fargo, like, people are. People are riding with us.
CJ
That's awesome. Yeah.
Evan
Yeah.
CJ
Kind of like the whole team is doing it. Justin's doing it. Our chef Jen, said she was doing it. Gavin's doing it. Big wrench. Doesn't need to. He's got old man strength. He would, hands down, beat any of our asses. And he doesn't push three plates up. Yeah, literally, dude. I wouldn't surprise me, but, yeah, no, the whole team is getting in shape, but everyone I tell at the gym that, like, what we're doing, and then, like, the end, like, we're doing a. A bodybuilder competition. That is like, the cherry on top. Like, they're like, yeah. Yes, that is. I hope you guys do it. I hope you see it through, because I'm like. And we're thinking about maybe doing a body competition. And they're like, oh, you have to do that. That'd be hilarious.
Mike
I don't know if we're thinking about it. We are doing.
CJ
I know. I think we. I think we've, like, it's. It's committed to it. Yeah. Yeah, but it was funny. No, we had, like, this. Our personal trainer come in that was doing, like, the body comps on us at the beginning of the week and taking all the stats of everyone, you know, with the little tape measure out, running around. Everyone's Bellies and everything. And we told him what our idea was with the bodybuilder competition, and he. He thought that we meant just going to a body.
Mike
Like, we're gonna just watch it, like, sit in the crowd.
CJ
That's how we're gonna end.
Mike
Yeah, yeah. Like, nice. So you're gonna just, like, be in the crowd or something like that? He said, we're like, no, we're trying to be up on stage.
CJ
And he's doing that, like, as he's like, like, running the tape measure around my belly. And he looks up and he's like, you can't believe it.
Mike
Yeah. Like, you're going to enter in the competition. Yeah, dude.
Ryan
Yeah, like, dude, we got. I got to teach you guys the poses, which is, like, the one. You need two things, like, poses, the muscles in the spray tan and then the poses.
CJ
It was like, three.
Mike
I don't think you need two things.
Gavin
I don't think you just bundle.
Mike
I think just to enter, you got to have the spray tan and just know the poses halfway.
CJ
Yeah. Because I doubt they're like, send us a picture of what you look like.
Ken
I mean, he was saying you basically just have to register and you're. Yeah, you're in.
Ryan
I just.
Mike
We just have a very funny.
Ryan
It is funny, this regimen. Because then once he heard that, he's like, all right, so, like, how often will I be training you guys?
CJ
Yeah.
Mike
At that point, he was like, you.
Ryan
Could swing by sometime, maybe train us once or twice, shoot us a text. And then he's like, what's. What's the meal plan? You guys want me to shoot you? Like, breakfast, lunch, and dinner? What do you want to do for the meal plan? We're like, well, we got Jen.
Evan
Jen will probably just cook.
CJ
Yeah, Jen, lay off on the carbs for us.
Mike
Like, bodybuilder competitions, they take it so seriously. Back when I worked at a gym, like, any of those people that were, like, into it, it's such a big deal, but it's really not. It's like you're just going to a local. I'm sorry to belittle it, but you're just going to, like, a local show. There's probably 20 people in the crowd, and all of them are related to someone up on the stage.
Evan
Well, making enemies with the strong guys before we go.
Mike
Good call. It's not, like.
CJ
Interesting approach. Interesting approach on this one, cj, I might let you solo, man. This mission, it's not like the competition.
Mike
Arnold Schwartz and Schwartz is on.
Ryan
I don't know If I'm sure you guys do, like, know who Sam Suck is.
CJ
Yeah.
Ryan
Like, he just.
Mike
He won't be at our competition, but.
Ryan
He just did, like, I guess, first bodybuilding competition, did all his full cut because he used to be a massive. And then dude. People just talk mad shit in the comments.
Mike
Really?
CJ
Yeah.
Ryan
I was really surprised, like. And I'm like, the dude's 23. This is his first bodybuilding competition, and he is jacked, as Jack gets. I mean, so are the other guys, but I'm just like, I just don't understand. Maybe you could hate on him for the spray tank.
CJ
Like, what are they?
Mike
I just. I just can't believe that that guy is that fucking jacked. And he is just entering now in his first competition. Like, what the fuck was he.
Ryan
He was really training Interesting journey. He just kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger for, like, two years straight. And then he's like, I followed this guy. Now it's time for the cut.
CJ
Mike, I love that you're not working out, but you're watching workout YouTube videos start. Mike's, like, getting in the. In the right state of mind.
Ryan
Yeah. But then, like, I don't know, like, many people, you see those guys and you're like, I. I don't even know if that's, like, feasible.
CJ
Like, no, I can't even picture your.
Ryan
Does that, like, look good? Like, I'm not, like, trying to figure out if he's attractive or not, but do.
CJ
Do people in general, they think that's attractive.
Gavin
3Am on YouTube.
Ken
Imagine the Togi route or whoever that is.
Evan
Yeah, he's on roids.
Ken
Casino gambling. And.
CJ
Those guys are standing there shirtless. And Mike is also standing there shirtless, but, like, looks the way he does, and he's like, all right. I'm just trying to decide, like, who here I think looks at. And they're all doing their poses for Mike, and he's like, the judge, and he's in his beard. All right, you definitely out.
Evan
Oh, yeah.
Ryan
I'm just, like, picking which one I like, maybe want to look like.
CJ
I just.
Ryan
Yeah, I don't know if I can do the spray tan. I know I have to, but it's not that me.
Evan
The spray tan seems like the easiest part. Even Ken's done it.
Ryan
That's true, but I just feel disgusting.
Ken
For, like, 24 hours.
CJ
Well, Evan's gonna be sprayed up, too. He's gonna look like.
Evan
We gotta go to somebody that'll give us spray tan, too.
Ryan
That's actually.
Evan
It's too thick, you know, get canceled.
Gavin
Because of our bad spray.
Ken
We just got to fly Lexi up here for a day.
CJ
Oh, Ken just wants to fly Gavin's sister up for a day.
Evan
That's the thing. She's too professional. She won't do a bad one. Like, you look just really tan when you did yours. We got to find someone who was willing to mess it up.
Ken
Look, you're trying to look like just straight up orange.
CJ
Yeah.
Gavin
I think we should do our own spray tans. You can buy the tent on Amazon.
Ryan
There you go.
Evan
We could have Big ranch set up his tent.
CJ
Can you. Big Ranch? Can you put on your spray gun and bring your suit in today? That doesn't. We're all standing there in our little speed.
Gavin
Yeah, we all line up. So we just do it for efficiency, like, right down all six, back and forth.
Ken
One person just gets, like, paint.
Ryan
Yeah, like, well, that's what I was thinking. You guys could go first, because I want to do, like, either, like, purple or red, I think.
CJ
I don't think you get to pick your tans, do you?
Mike
You can do orange or kind of orange.
Gavin
Yeah, I want Mike to look like the couch.
Ryan
Yeah, that's how you'll probably look.
Mike
Like that. Mike, we can do that.
CJ
Have you guys been seeing that our giveaway winners are becoming, like, a social trend? It's like a meme now.
Mike
How about the snowmobile winner?
CJ
Right. So, like, even before that, though, like, it's so known that the winners of our giveaways 98% of the time are not excited or they don't. They're just not going to show their excitement. Yeah. I mean, might be ways of maybe not saying thanks or might be ways of not crying.
Evan
Yeah.
CJ
And granted, like, you won. We don't get to choose who wins. Completely random. You don't have to do anything. You don't. You don't have to say thanks. You don't have to be excited.
Ryan
Right.
CJ
But people are on the Internet are, like, catching on to that, and it's becoming just, like, a trend.
Ryan
They think they're the ones that are like, yes, they do. They do need to be excited.
CJ
Right. So the last snowmobile winner. And, you know, he was a nice guy and whatnot, too, but he kind of just fell into the same bucket of, come on, man, just give us a tear. He's like, I'm excited, but I'm not that excited.
Mike
It is amazing how things like that just naturally happen. Like, how do we have this many in a row? There has been some that were really appreciative, you know. But I think regardless, it's a shocking.
Ryan
Well, it's hard to say. Yeah. Like not appreciative. I will just stick with the excited. Yeah.
CJ
I would say that they're not.
Ryan
Almost all of them are appreciative the.
Evan
Way that the excitement comes out.
Ryan
Yeah. There's just so many. We catch like the last snowmobile winner, he was at the bar. Like, there's so many factors and I do wanted the same thing. How it just like one after another.
Ken
But maybe do we have to try this? Do like calling the winner at a different time of day. Like, what do we got to do? What do you do to hype them up?
Evan
They're too sleepy at five o' clock in the afternoon.
Mike
You guys remember that time we drove all the way, like seven hours to deliver that snowmobile and it was just awkward. And then we, like, the kid was like, oh, thanks.
Evan
And then that one was the worst.
Mike
Like, we literally were there for like 15 minutes. We were like planning like hanging for the day, but it was just like.
CJ
That.
Mike
It was just like that. Just quiet. And we're like, all right, well, we're gonna get out of here. And then we hopped back in the truck, drove another seven hours on back home.
CJ
Did we ask him if he knew who we were?
Mike
I think we did.
CJ
Yeah, he did.
Mike
But like, his parents are just like, no, he's just. He's just quiet.
CJ
Yeah.
Evan
Yeah. I mean, hard to hate on people that express their emotions differently. But it's been literally been that way since the start. I think the first giveaway winner was good, but I remember then the second one wasn't. And then we had Big Joe, which now he's actually. Now he was stoked.
Ryan
That's me.
CJ
That's how it started. We were like, this is awesome.
Evan
This is what?
Mike
Super nice family.
Ryan
This is a joke. But I'm going to blame it on Big Joe because he was literally levitating. He was jumping around his house screaming. His. His family was probably like, dude, you gotta chill out. He was literally running around his house.
Evan
Screaming because he was so excited.
CJ
Never had any.
Evan
And he set the bar so high. And then whoever was after that really, I remember, wasn't excited. We're like, damn, this thing kind of sucks. And then we gave it to having a blast. And having a blast was a great guy who deserved the snowmobile.
CJ
Yeah, I'm blanking on him. I remember the meme.
Evan
Having fun, having a. With the snowmobile. Super nice guy. I can't remember his name.
Gavin
Yeah, it is crazy, like, how much.
CJ
We imagine him listen to this, and he's just like, oh, yes, that I'm having a blast.
Evan
Never knew he's a meme. Good, good kid. Well deserving.
CJ
Great kid.
Mike
What about that one kid that was in Walmart and he had the mask on? It was just super awkward.
Evan
Forgot about.
CJ
Oh, I forgot about that YouTube.
Mike
I just don't know what video it is. But, yeah, was like, pit bike. Maybe it was just a pit bike.
Evan
Yeah, he was like, nothing to be excited about.
CJ
Yeah, that's right. We told him, and he was wearing a mask, and we couldn't tell if he was, like, smiling underneath the mask or if he couldn't just hear us. We were like, can you hear us? The audio coming through? And he was like, yep. And he just, like, kept walking. We're like, is this guy playing a prank on us right now? We're on, like, what, 35? This is our 35th giveaway.
Evan
35 people.
CJ
What year do we start doing 2018?
Mike
I bet you we have seven good ones.
CJ
Yeah, I feel like we're due for one. So we're giving away Raptor R right now. If you think that maybe you out there watching, you're sitting in your car listening to this or laying in bed or whatever you're doing, and you're like, hey, I'm an exciting person. Or, you know, I might show my excitement on camera, try and get entered, win it.
Ryan
Will announce the quad pretty soon here, and so hopefully they're excited too.
Evan
You're right.
Ryan
I mean, how could you not be excited about a camouflage utility wheeler?
CJ
I'd be excited.
Ryan
Really? We say that about every single one of our giveaways.
CJ
I don't know. Maybe it's just our demo.
Evan
Chill, guys.
CJ
Chill, guys.
Ryan
Ryan, your comment. Your comment on the Raptor are like, reveal post on Instagram. I'm buying another trx. Like, that, to me, was just pure comedy. Like, whether you do or not, like, how does that. How do you think that thing compares to your trx?
Evan
I think it's pretty similar because a Raptor always felt smaller and less powerful than my trx. Like, it just did. The TRX was the biggest, and Raptor and then, like, a normal truck. But this just levels up to, like, it feels like a TRX when you're driving it. Like, it feels really big on the road, and you floor it and it gets really sketchy and light. I would say it's pretty similar, but you can't beat the Dodge supercharger sound.
CJ
You think it's that different? Oh, yeah.
Mike
The Raptor is better. The Raptor is better in the TRX.
Evan
Well, that's because you love Raptors.
Mike
Yeah.
CJ
Yeah. But C.J. told me the other day that maybe I'm not a Raptor guy.
Mike
Handles better. Nicer interior. That's my two cents.
CJ
It's got rear wheel drive.
Mike
You can. Yeah, you can switch in between. Rear wheel drive.
Evan
Yeah, that's true. I had to do the unlocker thing to do.
Mike
I remember the trx. Like, the supercharger had such a squeak to it. It was like.
Evan
It did.
Mike
The borderline would be like, is there something wrong with this thing? But that's just how it was.
Evan
Hellcat wine.
Mike
Yeah.
CJ
Pretty sick, dude. It's pretty cool that they made the Raptor R. Yeah. Like, it's such a sweet truck.
Mike
And they discontinued the trx.
Ryan
Yeah.
Mike
Yeah.
CJ
It is bizarre.
Ryan
Very bizarre.
CJ
The Rho, or whatever, the replacement couldn't.
Mike
Compete with it, so they were like, well, we better just call it off.
CJ
Yeah, but they're probably gonna just come out competing with someone.
Ryan
Ford actually sells the Raptor.
Evan
Yeah.
CJ
Yeah, but they'll probably come. I bet. Yeah, they'll drop a 700 or an 800 horse.
Mike
You got to wonder, though, because, like, if they're doing away with V8 engines due to emissions.
Evan
That's back off now. I guess. It is back.
Mike
That's good.
CJ
Oh, so it's just a whole marketing.
Mike
That's because different people now and different.
Ken
Different administrations have different rules and.
Evan
Yeah. V8's back. Well, except for that Dodge Challenger EV. Dude, they just. I. I could have wrote the book for them on making that cool. It's exactly what it is. Except for. With a thousand horsepower.
Gavin
Yeah.
Evan
Instead of like 540.
CJ
Oh, really?
Evan
What were they thinking? All wheel drive.
Ryan
It's cool. It's like six.
CJ
Oh, they made it our all wheel drive.
Evan
It's all wheel drive.
CJ
That's lame.
Ken
And it's.
Evan
Well, you can.
Ken
Way too expensive.
CJ
Oh, you. Oh, you can.
Ryan
I have no idea what Dodge is doing with that electric Challenger. Because they're. They made. You know how it has the fake rev sounds. You can, like, turn it on. Like, they need to lean into it being electric. Not make it electric. And then lean into.
Mike
Yeah.
Evan
Trying to be a muscle car. You're right.
Ryan
It doesn't make any sense. And then how, like, the gas version's coming out later.
Mike
Yeah.
Ryan
It's just the weirdest thing. It's like coming out with a product that no one wants and then being like, we'll Come out with the one that you will want after this.
Mike
Yeah. I just don't understand why you would take a sports car and then, you know, I can see why you'd make it ev, because EV has amazing performance, but you actually put a EV motor in a fast sports car. But you made a. You put a slow EV motor in it. Yeah. Like everything else, EV is like thousand horsepower minimum. Like, Ryan's hummer is a TH000 horsepower.
Gavin
What's the price point on it? It's got to be cheaper to, like, a smaller one.
Ken
$80,000.
Evan
That's like.
Mike
No, there's just one EV and they.
Ken
Know they're trying to a Model 3 Performance, which is like 20 to 30 grand cheaper than that is also has more power and is faster.
Mike
Except you're driving around on a jelly bean, but.
Ken
But you're saving money and it's faster.
Mike
Faster. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Like, it's just. Doesn't really make sense. I like the idea of it. I think it's cool they did an electric one. They just should have made it fast. I agree with Ryan. Should have been a th000 horsepower. Right?
Evan
Because, like, the 600 horsepower Hummers, like, I would have never gotten one if it didn't have all the power. Like, that's what makes that thing cool. Because there's probably nothing else cool about it that you guys will tell me about, but, like, the fact that it's fast.
CJ
It has that much horsepower.
Evan
Yeah. It's so fun last night. I was in a hurry, driving fast. Dude, I think I drive that thing faster than my vet. Just so easy.
CJ
Really?
Mike
It's quiet, too. You're just zooming.
CJ
Yeah, I guess maybe I forget because it's so big.
Evan
You take her for a ride or you can take my Hummer. I'll take the urus.
Mike
All right.
Evan
Month or two, you think we want to switch? Probably switch back in the spring or.
CJ
Something like that works.
Mike
I'll trade you the G Wagon for day. That'd be fun.
CJ
Well, me?
Mike
Yeah.
CJ
Well, I just gave it to Ryan.
Mike
No G Wagon for Hummer. No, not the Hummer.
Evan
Oh, no.
CJ
Sorry.
Evan
You'd have to trade with me. I'm already driving.
CJ
Pretty soon the whole crew is just, like, intermixed.
Evan
Well, not to switch gears too much, but when Evan was talking about the vintage ride, my buddy was at a vintage ride this weekend and sent me this video of this guy racing.
Gavin
Oh, he hit the truck.
CJ
What the.
Mike
Bro?
CJ
I was not expecting that.
Ryan
I'm glad to See that he's on the ground, far away from.
Gavin
And this is why you wear your tethers, kids.
Mike
That wasn't good. That wasn't good. Who's responsible for that?
CJ
I mean the guy. The guy riding for sure.
Ryan
The throttle just got stuck.
Mike
That was a trx, wasn't it?
Evan
No, it's a rebel.
CJ
Dude. I hope nobody was in the passenger.
Evan
So I asked my friend that was there one. Buddy was wearing a tether and it didn't work. Supposedly old sleds. But there was a lady sitting in the passenger seat and she did get a little banged up. But she's all right. But yeah, I mean gnarly if I can get it right on impact there.
Dalton
Boom.
CJ
They're lucky that the ski didn't go through the window or something.
Evan
Pretty solid.
CJ
The airbag definitely went off though. It had to have.
Evan
Can you imagine you're driving down the road and you just get hit by a freaking. A frickin enticer or whatever the heck this thing is at like 35 miles an hour from the side.
CJ
Dude, that is crazy.
Gavin
Calling the insurance company. Yeah, I got hit by a snowmobile. Like oh, how's the rider? Oh, he's fine. No one was on the sled. I just got hit by a sled.
Ryan
I really wonder how that works for insurance. Is the, the truck insurance? It's like he obviously doesn't have insurance on his vintage snowmobile that he's riding on a closed course that looked like.
Gavin
A pretty makeshift track. But I wonder if it could come back to the track because of course property. Which would suck. But yeah, that sucks on somebody. And yeah, buddy was probably running the illegal tether setup. They probably say you have to have a tether. So he just stuck one on there.
Mike
Yeah.
Gavin
Intended to hook into it. Classic.
Evan
Probably a whole cluster.
Mike
Yeah.
CJ
I can't imagine the insurance company is going to like that for the truck or like let it be.
Evan
That's what sucks about doing anything. There's always somebody who will come after even if like the guy doesn't and whatever. Hopefully they could maybe settle it out of insurance, you know.
Mike
That would just suck because you weren't doing anything wrong or like it's like such a far out consequence, you know, it's like not something you would think of. Like if we were. If we were gonna duct tape the throttle of a snowmobile and send it off a jump and it for some reason went rogue and then hit a vehicle, I. I would be like, that's what you get.
Evan
Yeah.
Mike
For duck, you know that Guy's just going about his business, just riding on a snowmobile course and, you know.
Ryan
Right.
Mike
You really wouldn't have expected that.
Gavin
Might just be a bad mechanic. And he had a bad throttle set up.
Evan
It was cold. Maybe something froze on the throttle. You know, nothing works when it's cold. But, yeah, bad luck's a doozy. Made me think of our buddy Steve. Steve Hamilton. He had his Senna wrecked. Somebody else was driving it, got t boned. It's like, one of very few car worth millions of dollars. And he just took delivery of his hennessey venom. And he was like, yeah, well, this car is kind of like the American equivalent of the Senna, and it's the same color. And he goes, well, we were driving a Texas roadhouse when the Senegal got T bone. So he goes, we might as well finish it off and, like, go to Texas Roadhouse on this one. Which made me remember that in high school, I had, like, this girl that I liked, but she didn't like, like, kind of like me kind of liked another guy. Kind of didn't like me. Yeah.
Mike
All right.
Evan
We go to Texas Roadhouse. I'm turning, like, 16. They throw me up on the Texas Roadhouse stool. Everybody starts singing. I'm having a great time. And I look up, and she's on a date with another guy. Like, right across the restaurant. No, right there. And I went, fuck. Texas Roadhouse. That, like, that sucked. You know, they put me in this bad spot then.
CJ
Yeah, it's 100% their problem then.
Evan
Well, that's what you. You think. You think there's no way it can be. Then two years later, me and this girl are dating.
CJ
Like, the same chick.
Evan
No, another girl. Sorry. Me and a girl are dating. Like, we're. We're going steady. We go to Texas Roadhouse. Just by chance, one night, we go to Texas Road or something to eat.
CJ
Okay.
Evan
Next week breaks up with me.
CJ
Yeah, it's got to be Texas Roadhouse.
Evan
And I legit after that. I would not step foot in a Texas Roadhouse because I was so suspicious about. I was like, texas roadhouse, bad luck.
CJ
Interesting.
Ryan
You're over there, like, Steve, I get it, dude. Texas Roadhouse.
Evan
I did. I text him. I go, I get it, man. Texas Roadhouse, bad luck.
Gavin
You just need to skip the buns. I think the. The luck is in the buns.
Ryan
Yeah, right.
CJ
Could it. Could it have been that she watched you house, like, 14 buns?
Ken
Oh, for sure.
Evan
Probably, dude. They got free refills on Mountain Dew over there. I'm sure I had 15.
Ryan
The last time that we were at Texas Roadhouse, we recruited one or two gals for Gavin. Speed dating.
CJ
Yes. We've had pretty good luck at Texas Roadhouse.
Evan
That's what I'm saying now. Love isn't dead. Neither is Texas Roadhouse. It's all good.
CJ
Yeah. What are the odds that, like, you got your heart broken at Texas Roadhouse?
Evan
Twice.
CJ
Twice. And we tried to recruit women from Texas Roadhouse to complete Gavin's heart.
Evan
We get two of them. It just. I had to sacrifice that for Gavin in the future.
CJ
Yeah.
Ryan
I don't know.
CJ
If I were you, I'd probably just keep your current girl away from Texas Roadhouse.
Ryan
You think?
Mike
Like, with your track record, I wouldn't mean.
CJ
It's probably not.
Evan
Probably not worth.
CJ
Probably not worth the risk at this.
Evan
Point, I was kind of thinking that, but I'm not a Longhorn Steakhouse guy. Texas Roadhouse is way better.
Mike
Oh.
Evan
What are you doing?
Ryan
It's Dalton. The guy with no wisdom.
Gavin
He looks less ridiculous than he did last Monday.
Mike
Oh, my gosh. Pulling up.
Dalton
Dude, I am so high right now.
CJ
Really? Still? How did you get here?
Dalton
Teleported.
Mike
You drive yourself?
Dalton
My mom drove me.
Mike
Oh, nice. Where's she at?
Dalton
I told her to dip.
Ken
Really?
Dalton
I'm stuck with you guys for the rest of the day.
Mike
Well, that's cool. Whose responsibility are you? What?
Gavin
Who's gonna keep track of you?
Dalton
Well, you.
Gavin
I don't think you want that, bro. You're vulnerable, dude.
Dalton
I'll just be chilling in the background. I'll have a camera in my hand. I'll be all right.
CJ
Those two statements don't go hand in hand. Chilling in the background and have the camera in your hands doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
Ken
Do you really trust Evan to take care of you?
Gavin
I thought he was exaggerating a little, but I looked into his eyes. He's high.
Mike
How's it feel, Dalton? Do you like it?
Dalton
The wisdom teeth hurt, but, I mean, the high makes it better.
Ryan
Yeah.
CJ
All right, Dalton, you're being a bad influence right now.
Dalton
Sorry.
Ryan
But, yeah, like, once that. Did they give you any pain medication?
CJ
Well, yeah, I just wonder.
Ryan
Some people don't don't like it. Some people don't take it.
Gavin
He's got a permagrin on.
Ryan
Yeah. Once that high wears off, make sure you get your medication and exactly when they tell you to, as otherwise it'll really start hurting.
Dalton
Yeah. I'm going to try to set the pain meds. Maybe take some Tylenol or something.
Ryan
Okay. Exactly. So no pain meds for you.
Ken
How far post op are you?
Dalton
Like an hour or so.
Mike
Just pulls back up. Still pretty good. Pretty good.
Evan
The way you're looking again right now is just so funny. Yeah, just don't overdo it because I overdid it with my wisdom teeth and it sucked. Dude. I got mine done on Friday, and then on Saturday I went snowmobiling because I thought I was good.
Ryan
And what happened?
Evan
Bad news bears. I got three or four dry sockets and it was like the worst pain ever.
CJ
So, Dalton, hold on. You were telling us a little bit that your nurse was following you on TikTok and Instagram for your thirst traps or something like that?
Dalton
Yeah, I guess I woke up and I'm like in a completely different room than I was when I started. And then like this. This girl was like, yeah, I know who you are, or something. Like, I follow you on Instagram and I guess I don't know where it went. I don't really remember what I said.
Ryan
She said anything.
Mike
She was kind of trying to put the moves on you. Anything.
Gavin
Did you do this?
CJ
Yeah. So the picture. The picture that we saw, it looked like you were thirst trapping or like whatever the kids are doing these days.
Dalton
Like, I thought about CJ and what he does and I was like.
Ryan
Yes.
CJ
Wait, so you do that?
Evan
No.
Mike
When I'm making fun of him and all the other tick tock guys, that's.
Dalton
The first thing I thought of. So I did it.
Mike
And I don't.
Dalton
I don't. Yeah, I don't know where it was.
Gavin
I think she.
CJ
Yeah.
Gavin
You should go make a tick tock right now before this wears off.
Ryan
Yeah.
Gavin
Might be your most viral one.
Dalton
Yeah, with you I will.
Ryan
Some good lore.
CJ
Oh, yeah. What are you guys going to do?
Gavin
You could drive right now. We should go do some stunts.
CJ
That's a good idea, actually. You could do it on the property so it's under a controlled environment. And you put a blindfold on and Evan will tell you where to drive.
Gavin
He could just flip that mouth brace off and he's got a blindfold on already.
Evan
Mouth don't hurt it.
Ken
Don't do that.
Evan
Don't do that.
Ryan
I mean, he's not going to die.
Evan
That's. Imagine how Ken was with the propane. Stop.
Mike
Very delicate with situations.
Gavin
What do you think's gonna happen if he's not wearing that kid? Probably fine.
Evan
I do not want you to get hurt and then your mother have more to take care of. I'm really hoping you didn't drive Here, because I. I don't know if we.
Ken
Can take care of you.
CJ
Yeah, we don't want to. Let's just say take responsibility for you for the rest of the day.
Dalton
I'll take responsibility for myself.
CJ
Yeah, it looks. Yeah, that's cool. Dalton, you kept your. You kept your mouth shut, right? Like, when you were all drugged up, you didn't start saying anything or spreading any information, huh?
Dalton
Yeah, certainly 3ndas. Even if I wanted to say something, I literally.
CJ
Just making sure that no doctors or nurses know about you and Evan's little escapades when the cameras are off.
Dalton
No, none of that stuff. Speaking of which, I gotta go get camera stuff ready, but here you go.
Mike
See?
CJ
Yeah.
Evan
You gotta go to bed, young blood.
Ken
Go lay down.
Ryan
Is it?
CJ
No. Serious, I think.
Mike
Dude. Just a beast, dude. He's just a beast.
Ryan
I never got put under when I got my wisdom teeth out. Really, really, very whack. But I so like that. Me watching videos of people, like, just waking up has always been really entertaining to me because, like, what's the difference between, like, and.
Gavin
You're more loopy if they don't put you under, because then you're on all the laughing gas. I think when they put you under, you.
CJ
I definitely.
Gavin
For a second, I think you snap out of it.
Ryan
Yeah. I was dazed for a second. I would say I was in a.
Ken
Daze, like, for the rest of the day. Like, I just went home, went to bed.
CJ
Never. I wish we could.
Mike
I wish we could have picked up from his wisdom teeth.
Ryan
So, like, what's the difference?
Mike
We've been fudging with them.
Ryan
Like, when I had surgery on my foot, that's just like anesthesia. You're just out. And I remember waking up and being groggy because I think you're out so hard. Is that what it is? And then wisdom teeth, they wake up and they're, like, half in half.
Evan
Yeah. It's different because I think something's some different with the face, because I remember I got my tonsils out. I wasn't. Wasn't loopy when I woke.
Ryan
Oh. Because I was more of a. I don't know.
Ken
I don't know.
Gavin
I ate a bunch of brownies, like, right afterwards and got up. They were burnt. I got all the, like, burnt. It was like brownie rocks, like, down in my.
CJ
No, you. That was a good idea.
Mike
No one.
Gavin
I didn't want to vape because I was worried I was going to get dry sockets. So I thought I would eat some THC brownies. So I thought I Was being smart.
Evan
Were you?
Gavin
No, I had to. I was flushing it out with that little syringe they give you, and it was bleeding all over.
Mike
How long ago is this?
Ryan
I don't know.
Gavin
Eight years ago or something.
Mike
I never got my wisdom teeth out.
Evan
That's why you're so smart.
Ryan
It's not that bad, but.
CJ
And I have my wisdom teeth too, Ryan. So what?
Evan
That's what I'm saying. That's why you guys are smarter than me. He's back.
Gavin
He doesn't even know. He's been here already.
Mike
Just imagine.
Ryan
What's up?
Mike
A scenario where Ken's getting his wisdom teeth out, and we're like, oh, yeah, yeah, we'll pick him up. And, like, you, like, go to pick him over the door, and, like, as soon as they bring him out the door, we, like, put him into the car, and then we're like, oh, like, we do some kind of quick one on him. He gets, like, all dressed up as a clown. Like, I could just see us, like. Like just putting him in some goofy situation where he's like, if we were.
CJ
To do that, something tells me that we would, like, get in the. In between Ken and, like, his appointment and call him and be like, all right, so let me explain this for YouTubers. Do the whole thing, and we put Ken under, and then we're fudging with them so hard, like, they don't even do the surgery. So he wakes up, and we, like the whole thing. And then, like, the next day, he's. He's like, so. Feels like, I have teeth back there.
Mike
Oh, no. They got to go back in there.
CJ
Yeah, they didn't do the surgery. We figured that was too much of a liability if we were messing with you afterwards.
Ryan
If you woke up and you're supposed to get your wisdom teeth out but you didn't, would you be like, oh, it kind of hurts?
CJ
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, Ken would be like, ah, the guy have dry sock?
Gavin
I got a broken rib or something.
Ken
Well, thank God I did that 15 years ago.
CJ
So being put under sucks, though. Like, you just wake up so groggy.
Evan
When was your last time when your appendix.
CJ
I got put under for my appendix, and then I got put under for my hernia. That was a while ago. And then I got put under for my endoscopy when they go into my stomach with a camera about the colonoscopy. No, I prefer to be awake. I got a towel for that one. Bit onto it.
Mike
Really?
CJ
No, I didn't need a towel. So we got A new bulldozer from our good buddy Rich. I don't know. Did we talk about that on the last pod? So our friend Rich called and was like, hey, I've got this buddy that I sold my dozer to that's selling it. It's for a great price. You guys should buy it if you're looking at doing any more track work. And we're like, yeah, well, yeah, it makes more sense because we spent 10, 15 grand on a rental last year. So we're like, if we're gonna do that again this year. And Rich was selling for, like, 23 grand. So we're like, oh, it makes sense, right? So we're just like, all right, we'll take your word for it. Looks like a good dozer. If you say so. We'll buy it. So we, like, wire his buddy the money, and Ken lines up transport it.
Evan
Gets to our shop, ship that sucker from Texas.
CJ
And it was 15 below out. And, like, the thing was just solid. It was, like, frozen solid. The gas was obviously frozen solid because.
Mike
It was gelled up.
Gavin
The diesel.
CJ
Yeah, Was like number two diesel. And. And it was straight from Texas. Couldn't have been any more pure.
Ryan
But the best part, even more gelled up than the diesel, was the. What was the hydraulic fluid.
CJ
And I think draw, like, fluid.
Ryan
Basically a giant hydraulic pump.
CJ
The batteries were frozen up. So, like, it was, like, so frozen solid.
Evan
And it's a dozer. You can't just drag it inside.
Ryan
Yeah.
Evan
Which is the problem with it.
Mike
That's where the best part comes in, is that the delivery driver, per usual, was so Russian, knew no English. And he's out there. He already unhooked the freaking trailer from his semi, and he's, like, ready for us to unload it, but the thing won't start. So I'm trying to explain to him it's not going to start. Like, we're not going to be able to get it going out here in the freezing cold. We need to get inside to this building. But he knows no English, and he's wearing, like, a full face, like, ski mask type of thing. And the way he was like, no English. No English. Like, I thought he was Spanish. So then I take out my translator and I start, you know, typing in, like, okay, this, that. So I'm like, yo, s. You know, he starts speaking Spanish to this guy, and then he just goes. He gets pissed. He goes, I'm Russian, bro. I'm Russian. Then he shakes his head and just walks away. So I have to, like, kind of.
CJ
Regroup I have to, like, happen to.
Mike
Him before I have to regroup. I have to go get something again. He, at this point, he's in his truck, so I'm like, knocking on it. He, like, looks at me, doesn't even move. Comes back, comes out. I'm like, all right. Like, I'm trying to explain to him, we need to hook it up, and then you need to weave it into the building so we can heat this, you know, get it warm enough to then drive off the trailer.
CJ
Keep in mind, there's not a straight shot to back up a trailer.
Mike
Super wick. Like, just wacky things.
CJ
It's like a 90 degree angle.
Mike
Yeah. So then basically we get this guy to.
Evan
He.
Mike
He gets it in there after, like, 20 minutes of the door wide open in negative 15. So now the whole shop is freezing cold as well. So we get the thing down. We're sitting there and trying to get it going. End up spending, like, four or five hours with this Russian guy. So at that point, we're friends because I was like, you know, there's just some kind of, like, I'm so pumped. By the time he finally gets this thing in, he was like. He was driving, like, kind of like Ryan when he's mad, like, shifting into, like. Oh, yeah, either reverse or drive while you're still going backwards or forwards, you.
CJ
Know, like, super aggressive.
Mike
Yeah, Just like. Like he was tick. Trying to get this thing in. Finally gets it in. And then I was so happy that he was happy. So we started hanging.
CJ
Brought him over lunch. You mobbing in the G wagon?
Mike
He's got the FaceTime on. He's got his Russian friend. And, like, I don't know what the guy's saying. But the best part was he just kept getting a little angry at, like, Dalton, because Dalton's just there filming the whole time. I'm like. I'm just like. I don't even know what's up with this guy. He's just always filming stuff.
Gavin
And he had that fresh spray tan on.
Mike
Yeah. He was thinking, what the frick is going on?
CJ
Yeah.
Mike
He never really gathered it. He never really gathered it.
Ryan
The best part was, is that.
CJ
Yeah.
Ryan
So he had to spend all day with us. And then it came time to shine. The dozer started. It was still angry, Very angry. And then we got it off, and we're like, okay, you can come and.
Gavin
Get your trailer 8 inches at a time.
Ryan
Yes. It was the. It just. It was weird. It would only move a little bit at a time. It took us hours. And anyway, you guys were talking to him, and then CJ had spent so much time with him that he was feeling really comfortable. And then you're like, dude, it's like he can't understand anything.
Mike
You could literally say whatever you wanted, but, like, if you. When you say it, when you say it, you just, like, nudge your head, like, and say just some gibberish. He'll be like, nod the head and agree with you.
CJ
So you, Like, I don't speak English, but I. I know what's. I know what's from SpongeBob, you idiot.
Mike
Probably.
CJ
He probably knew Doodle Bob, dude.
Mike
I think he lost a lot of respect, actually, when I did that one, I should have came up. I should have just said some gibbers. I should have just been like, my friend Evan loves rubbing peanut butter all over himself, and then nod my head. He would have just gibberish.
CJ
That's just facts.
Ryan
That's great. Yes. We got a dozer, so that's cool.
Mike
Yeah. Hopefully it runs.
CJ
Dude.
Mike
Seems like it's going to run pretty.
CJ
Much from the rip. Like, the wrenches just kept calling it our new piece of scrap metal. Like, they were so confident that it was going to be just such a pile of junk and that we had just spent a bunch of money on something that was going to just never work. And they would have been. They would have been right.
Mike
Could still be.
CJ
They could still be right.
Gavin
Supposedly 100 hours.
CJ
Supposedly. It runs now. And Gavin said that he drove it a little bit, but you can't really drive it, like, around the shop because it would destroy the concrete. So I don't. I don't know how much we've tested it, but let's hope that Uncle Rich didn't rip us off.
Mike
How are we going to get that thing over to our other land? You can't just drive it in the ditch.
CJ
Oh, yeah, we'll just ditch it.
Mike
Okay.
CJ
Imagine we go across everyone's driveways. They're just cracked.
Ryan
You were more or less not serious, but you're like, so what? What are we gonna do? Like, we gonna drive it over there? And I said I would go as far to say as I would be pissed if I saw someone driving.
CJ
No, we'd have to do it at night.
Ken
I don't think we even could with how, like, steep some of those ditches are.
CJ
You just take the road.
Ken
Oh, yeah. Just absolutely destroy it.
Evan
Focus on the two yellow lines. Keep them in the center, and there's.
CJ
No way that they would figure out who it was. Right.
Mike
Starts.
CJ
It starts at our farm and it ends at our track and there's a dozer sitting in the middle of it. We're like, you have no proof.
Ken
Complete coincidence.
Ryan
So why do they call them bulldozers? A genuine question, where did the bull come from? We need to get to the bottom of this. Like an excavator. That shit is an excavator.
Ken
Also called a crawler.
Evan
In 1886, a bulldozer meant a large caliber pistol and the person who wielded it. People don't wield weapons like they used to, man.
Ryan
That's for sure. Yeah, dude. When they used to just have shootouts, like, was that as real? They'd just be like, hey man, you can't be doing whatever you were doing in my town. So meet me outside in an hour and then we'll just turn around and try to shoot at each other.
Gavin
I've been watching westerns.
Mike
Again.
Ryan
No, I actually don't really like westerns. Again, like, that's why that doesn't make sense to me. Like they walked out there and then just like whoever can pull it out. How often was it that they would both end up being shot or that they would miss? And then I feel like I'd be.
Evan
Really good in a duel. No, you don't think I would. I wouldn't. You never see me move quick.
CJ
No, we know. We know that you wouldn't, Mike. I would say that. Oh, did we start yet? I'm not ready.
Ryan
Well, that's like. It's pretty rare that they show a duel again. These are the movies, but where they like shoot multiple times. It's always just like one shot and one guy hits and one guy doesn't.
CJ
I don't know, Mike. We'll have to. We'll have to get educated by our western friends next time we're out west.
Ryan
Didn't kill me because I had to stop watching my pocket. What are the odds?
Gavin
Pocket watch. They didn't have stopwatch.
Ryan
Yeah, sorry. Pocket watch.
Ken
Take this with a grain of salt. This is from Google's AI. Comes from the idea of using brute force to move things out of the way, similar to how a bull uses its horns.
Ryan
That honestly makes more sense than anything to me.
Ken
Take it with a grain of Salt.
Ryan
It's Google AI, but it is what it is.
Evan
Similarly, equipmentworld.com says the term dozer originally referred to as the steel plate and an operating mechanism attached to the front of what cat used to call a tractor.
Ryan
Okay, so it would. The dozer is originated from the blade. It was always Like, a crawler or a tractor. And the bull came from quite literally a bull.
CJ
Dude. I'm so excited for it, though. I think it kind of unlocks a bunch of opportunities. Build really cool stuff that would normally maybe just take, like, more time than it was worth. Or in that, like, usually we'll have it for, like, a week or two. And we're like, all right, we don't have that much time. Just do this, fix that. But now we can, like, build a new Couple new tracks over at the land. We can fix the dirt bike track. We're gonna start riding more dirt bikes. I've been trying to convince Evan to ride more dirt bikes with me, so build a. You know, a couple more tracks.
Ken
The way you told me we were buying this made it seem like you. You did it in the troll tone. Like, hey, what do you think of this, Dozer? We just bought it.
Ryan
Well, you fired it out. It still doesn't know, you know, it's a yes from me. And then, like, an hour later, you're like, bought it? And I was like, no, we did not.
CJ
Well, it's like, a $50,000 dozer. We paid 20 for it.
Ken
We might have gotten fleeced. We don't know.
Mike
Fleece.
CJ
No, I trust Rich. Honestly, if it was anyone else selling it, it maybe wouldn't be worth it. But I was just like, rich wouldn't.
Ryan
Do us shout out, puppies and coffee.
Gavin
We need some puppies and coffee. Rich, send us another box. We drank it all up.
CJ
Yeah.
Ryan
He responds my story the other day of me like, I got caribou. And then he's like, not puppies and coffee. I'm like, rich, you don't even have a public coffee store. I couldn't.
Evan
Oh, yeah.
Gavin
You can't even go online and buy any puppies and coffee.
Evan
You can go online. Oh, but you just can't get it, like, from a barista.
CJ
All right, guys, well, I think we gotta go meet Travis Pastrana for his big stunt here.
Evan
God, that's a crazy statement.
CJ
Yeah, that is pretty wild.
Mike
Mike's about to break unofficially. Mike's about to unofficially break a world record with him.
Ryan
Oh, we're gonna try.
Ken
We gotta get some hot dogs in here before we go.
Mike
You have part of the stunt.
Gavin
You have a tight tummy when you do it.
CJ
Yeah, you don't want full tummy. Well, there we go. We got to get Mike over to his unofficial world record to break.
Gavin
We got to take care of Boo.
CJ
And get Dalton home.
Mike
Put Dalton in the back seat during the.
Ryan
Yeah.
Mike
Hey, just sit here for now and just rest your eyes. Next thing you know, he's in the air.
Dalton
My hands are going to be on point today. I'm going to.
Mike
You're running the camera still?
Dalton
I'm running.
Ryan
Let's fucking go.
CJ
All right, there we go, guys. Subscribe if you haven't. We'll see you next week. Peace.
Mike
Boom.
Gavin
Don't let your meatloaf.
