Episode Overview

In this unique "ice fishing podcast," the CboysTV crew (CJ, Ben, Ryan, Ken, Evan, Micah, and special guests) gather in a fishing tent on a frozen Minnesota lake for a wide-ranging, often hilarious conversation. They discuss Ben's bizarre brush with Cabo's social scene and Mexican news, CJ and Mike’s journeys with sobriety, adventures with babies and parenthood, and plenty of zany side-stories, bringing listeners a blend of fishing, friendships, behind-the-scenes moments, and life philosophies—all in their signature unfiltered, comedic style.

Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Podcast Setting and Ice Fishing Adventures

• The crew records their first-ever podcast on the ice, joking about being "on thin ice" both literally and figuratively.
• [00:28] C: "This is a big moment. Our first ever ice fishing podcast."
• They worry about the ice’s thickness, gear setup pains, and share fishing banter (catching pike, tangled lines, who gets credit for the first catch).
• [01:02] E: "None of us are really that proficient of fishermen. We come out here for the good vibes."

Memorable Moment

• The group catches multiple (smallish) pike, prompting much celebration and debate over who landed the 'first' fish.
• [25:31] C: "Dude. That's a good sized fish."
• [25:43] B: "No, he took it with him. He took my hook with him."

---

2. Ben’s Wild Cabo Wedding Story & Making "the Mexican News"

• Ben details his recent trip to Cabo for a lavish destination wedding that he estimates cost at least “half a mil,” complete with fireworks and high-end tequila giveaways.
• [10:04] A: "It was hands down like the most insane wedding I've ever been to."
• Ben and another guest joke about making the local news as "the best behaved men in Cabo." Shockingly, a photographer actually publishes a posed photo of Ben, which ends up in a Cabo newspaper.
• [13:55] A: "It's this photo of me standing there striking a pose. And it's in the newspaper. Look at me, bro."
• The crew pokes fun at Ben’s accidental ascension to “D-list celebrity” status in Mexico.

---

3. Travel Mishaps, Faked Deaths, and International Antics

• Discussing a news story, the group unpacks the tale of a man who faked his own death to escape his life (and wife), only to be discovered.
• The squad relates the story back to their own misadventures—trouble at customs for water-damaged passports, and the outlandish planning it would take to disappear.
• [19:11] A / [19:12] C: "Yeah, that's illegal." / "This guy is a dick. Seriously, how did he fake your death and put [his family] through that, going to Europe?"

Side tangent:

• Ben describes missing an Italy trip due to a damaged passport, lamenting expensive re-bookings.
• The group discusses the logistical hurdles of international travel and border crossings.

---

4. Health Fads and Physical Mishaps

• Cold plunging gets debated—does it really help, or is it just a temporary trend? They compare it to historic health fads (like cigarettes once being seen as healthy), poke fun at the impact of ice baths on “the nuts,” and swap stories on injuries.
• [27:55] C: "Hard on your nuts. Dude."
• Revealingly, Ben discusses past hernias and cysts, opening up about possibly freezing his sperm as a precaution.
• [43:38] C: "I've thought about it mostly because I've had a lot of problems over the years..."

---

5. Babies, Parenthood, and Unfiltered Opinions

• With Justin expecting a baby soon, the crew dives into surprisingly frank (and funny) talk about babies: when they’re cute, fears of holding newborns, and awkward baby compliments.
• [65:00] A: "No, I don't hold my nieces and nephews until they are old enough to take a fall."
• They joke about being “on a watch list” for smelling babies, and debate when kids get actually cute (consensus: after a few months).
• [66:28] A: "Most time babies aren't that cute and parents just hype up their kid. You don't know how cute your kid is."
• Justin embraces his “dad” identity, with jokes about National Lampoons’ Clark Griswold and inevitable dad jokes.

---

6. CJ and Mike's Sobriety: Reflections and Peer Dynamics

• CJ describes being 3.5 months sober and Mike surpassing a month, both citing improved morning energy, sleep, and general well-being.
• [51:16] B: "That's no booze."
• They discuss how quitting is easier than many expect, especially when friends respect and support the choice.
• [56:22] B: "Once you go sober for, like, a couple of weeks, then the boys will know that you're serious…"
• The dynamics of “drinking with the boys” and the social aspects of alcohol are explored, emphasizing shifting group norms and perceptions.

---

7. Behind-the-Scenes, Business, and Tech

• The guys reveal they recently sold their iconic wakeboard boat and talk through the logistics of spec'ing out demo and marketing boats—a rare, inside look at CboysTV partnerships.
• [47:00] C: "I wonder why that boat took so long to kind of sell… It was just expensive, but big boat."
• Justin shares about operational systems for their growing business, humorously dubbed “a bunch of nerds gassing each other up.”
• [73:55] E: "Let me tell you about them… Neodymium magnets..."

---

8. Group Dynamics, Canadian vs US Culture, and Quickfire Topics

• Spenny’s accent and lifestyle as a Canadian motocross racer are frequent, good-natured targets.
• The group jokes about windmill conspiracies (“they make it windier!” [39:32]), small-town legends, and Minnesota winter culture.
• School memories, intelligence tests, and how to measure "smartness" (book vs street smarts) bring even more hilarity and introspection.

Transcript

[A]

Man, this is a Minnesota podcast. Sitting in a nice fishing tent, talking about the weather. Yeah, I don't hold my nieces and nephews until. Until they are old enough to take a fall.

[B]

Canadians sound so ridiculous.

[C]

No offense taken.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Hey, did you graduate high school?

[B]

Yeah, I graduated.

[C]

There's nothing wrong.

[B]

Do I seem dumb?

[C]

This is a big moment. Our first ever ice fishing podcast.

[E]

You know what? You could say this is our first podcast on thin ice.

[D]

Does anyone have a true ice thickness right now? I mean, we drove the four seater Razor out here.

[C]

It's. It's looking like 12 inches. So very safe. When you guys were rolling in the razor, though, I could hear it. Just the ice, dude.

[E]

The water moves in the hole.

[F]

We got some really important fish marking bobbers that we got chilling in the hole right now, so.

[E]

Yeah. Justin, what are we fishing with? None of us are really that proficient of fishermen. We come out here for the good vibes and the good time. But what are we gonna catch tonight, Justin? Because we gotta catch a fish. I swear, if we come out here for this whole two hours and we don't catch a fish, I'm gonna be disappointed.

[F]

I would also fire our guy, but we'll probably catch pike. There's a lot of walleye in this lake. There's crappie bass, lots of sunfish. So we'll hopefully catch something. I caught five pike before we started recording. So.

[E]

You caught five fish.

[A]

You keep saying that.

[F]

Yeah, it wasn't on camera, so it doesn't count. None of them are big enough to really take a picture of, but yeah, I got five little slime rockets.

[C]

What are we doing if we catch a fish?

[F]

Probably freaking out.

[C]

Freaking out for sure. Okay. That you can do that one, Mike.

[D]

I'm just gonna be bummed if we only catch pike. Like, we got to catch something else.

[B]

That you can fillet Northern pike sandwiches after this.

[D]

They're easy to catch and they're mean.

[C]

So bony.

[B]

Pike fish sandwiches.

[E]

Oh, oh, oh.

[G]

No way.

[E]

Ben's got that beginner luck with fishing, dude.

[D]

I hope there's going to be a lot of that. This podcast.

[C]

Dude.

[E]

Spenny, you look insane right now.

[B]

Feels good. It's the wrong color, but it feels good.

[A]

Yeah, I don't know if, like, you're actually legally allowed to wear that fit.

[B]

Yeah, well, I mean, rice fishing. So we had to do whatever you want.

[A]

Rules apply.

[C]

Pennies from Canada.

[E]

When we were setting this up, Evan was like, no, let's not do it. Unless we're like in an ice castle or something. Like, you know, it'd be way easier to set up all the mics and stuff. I was like, no, dude, we don't normally fish in an ice castle. We gotta come out here in giants. Or in Justin's, to be fair, giant double pop up tent.

[F]

But I think Evan was probably right that it was a massive pain in the ass to actually set all this up.

[A]

Well, Evan was afraid of blowing away, like, he mentioned it like multiple times. He goes, well, how do. How do you stake your tent down, Justin?

[F]

He's like, oh, you know, I just stake it down.

[D]

Like.

[A]

And he was like, well, how good are the stakes? Like, I could tell that he, like, had some serious PTSD about this.

[C]

I don't understand certain things with Evan. It's like, you'll never meet someone more careless in certain situations. But then.

[A]

Hello. Who's here?

[H]

Gentlemen have your fishing license.

[E]

Oh, my gosh.

[D]

I thought you were Dave.

[F]

Every single one of us just puckered.

[C]

The moment I had my fishing license.

[D]

Dude, I legit. We're like fishing like 200ft in front of Jake's dad's house right now. And I thought Dave was coming over here.

[C]

Just comes out and yells at us, get off. Get out of. In front of my house.

[A]

We were, we were laughing. Oh, that's what I felt. We got a major pile of.

[B]

Oh, no.

[A]

Oh, dude. This is what I was wondering.

[B]

Like, you got like six.

[A]

Six guys with rods down in a pretty small hole here.

[B]

Like, guys, one hole.

[A]

It's too tight. Like, how do we avoid the problems here? Like, we're gonna have issues.

[B]

That is not chill at all.

[C]

I walked like 80% of it too.

[A]

You walked the whole weekend?

[H]

Yeah.

[B]

Dang.

[C]

We're probably like a half a mile out from shore.

[H]

I saw somebody had a car on the lake, but I'm not quite that ballsy yet.

[A]

On your Tesla? Yeah, yeah, that's probably a bad idea. We were laughing earlier, Like, I'm gonna go. If the dnr, you know, came out and checked if we all have fishing license, which we do, but they would pop in and we got like seven cameras rolling. They would be like, God, these. These motherfuckers don't do anything off camera.

[C]

Then we get them in the thumbnail again.

[A]

Justin, what's the biggest fish that you've caught? Ice fishing.

[F]

Biggest I've caught ice fishing. I got like a. Probably a 20 inch largemouth out of this lake last year. I've never got really big walleye. I just don't fish for walleye that much, but I've got nice.

[D]

What you do have really big of is your boots. Those things are huge.

[F]

Yeah, these are literally.

[E]

Says you, bro. Look at you.

[A]

Hold on now, Mike, you're gonna talk about my boots.

[D]

I forgot I was wearing these. I legit was like just staring at your boots like, dude, those are huge. And then I. I really did look down.

[H]

My boots have been donated for community use now.

[A]

They have.

[D]

Because you don't wear them. For the record, I understand why I was walking here and my shins are fully blowed out.

[C]

It's just chafing or what?

[D]

Yeah, the way it just presses into your shin every time you step.

[C]

Oh, spending. What's that?

[F]

You're on bottom.

[B]

I'm just getting tangled up on the weeds down there.

[E]

Okay, you dropped too low.

[B]

Drop too low. Gonna try to see if I can catch one of my buddies again, though.

[E]

Wait, suspended? Do you go ice fishing up in Canada?

[B]

Yeah, we do some ice fishing, but I'm in the city, so we gotta drive like two hours out of the city to get to the lakes. And then you gotta hike in, like a 45 minute hike with the sled because we don't have snowmobiles is like as much as you guys do.

[G]

Really?

[D]

Well.

[B]

It's like we live so close to the national park, so you can't snowmobile. Right. There's no motorized vehicles. So you got a manpower sled out there and then drill and go.

[E]

How do you get the Modelos out there?

[B]

You gotta pack them. You gotta pack them in back backpack style.

[H]

Anyone catch any of those Modelos?

[C]

Throw Kenjamino a Modelo, somebody.

[E]

Ken didn't come here to fish. He came here to drink.

[A]

My cousin is a fishing guide and he is like. He's dirty with the sticks, dude. Like, the kid catches the biggest fish I've ever seen. I didn't even know that there were fish that big.

[C]

I fish pretty good.

[A]

Lake of the woods.

[F]

Oh, that's beautiful.

[B]

What's he fishing for?

[A]

Like sturgeon, walleye, pike. I don't know, big fish. But he keeps getting us or keeps asking us to like, come up and film a video up there, but just haven't made it happen. But I think it'd be pretty sweet for a seaboard's video.

[F]

I mean, I'll do like a solo trip, just test it out, make sure.

[A]

That it's all right. Yeah, yeah. The kid, like, lives and breathes fishing. Like, since we were like little kids. I used to go up, you know, and visit him or do our like, family shenanigans. And he was fishing the entire time anyone was ever doing anything. Like, since, like, we were like, three years old.

[E]

And you're like, come on, man, ride a dirt bike or something.

[A]

Dude, fishermen just love to fish.

[E]

I mean, I see why. Honestly, dude, this is nice. Like, we all got tucked in here.

[C]

It's pretty chill.

[E]

You're away from everybody else. You kind of just like, well, I was fishing. I'm sorry I couldn't come home for dinner. Oh, sorry. I didn't come home for somebody's quinceanera. I was busy fishing.

[C]

Sorry.

[E]

Model is on my mind.

[A]

I've been recovering from living Mexican a couple. Couple days, bro.

[E]

You were just in Cabo.

[A]

Cabo was sick. But I just, like, got the true Cabo experience and have been paying the consequences out my ass.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

All week, bro.

[A]

What bad?

[C]

What were you eating?

[A]

Yeah. So, like, in cop or like, just in Mexico in general? Like, when you go as a tourist, your body is just not ready for the parasites that Mexico, right?

[F]

Those tequila parasites.

[E]

The little worms in the bottom of the tequila, Right?

[A]

Yeah, yeah. So, like, I mean, you kind of know it going in, right? People tell you, like, just don't drink, like, the water. Obviously, I'm not a big faucet water drinker to begin with, but they're.

[D]

Don't flush your toilet paper.

[A]

No.

[D]

That's allowed Most of Mexico. It's not. Why? I don't know. Plumbing can't handle it.

[B]

You just, like, fold it up and put it in a little can. It's actually nasty. Weird. Oh, it's crazy. Yeah. If you go, like, anywhere that is not like a resort, they just fold up the toilet paper and put it in a little bucket. A little bucket right beside the toilet.

[C]

So what happens if someone had. Obviously, there's probably tons of people having tacos the night before. And what happens if you have. Dude, a couple too many. Maybe some extra hot diablo sauce?

[D]

Like, I don't know.

[C]

The toilet paper's got to be just stacked.

[B]

Yeah, it gets stacked.

[C]

God, it's got a stink. Is it, like, closed off, though, like a can?

[B]

No, it's just an open garbage can.

[A]

That's.

[D]

I think you like how you go into a bathroom. You're like, oh, this bathroom at the freaking BUC EE's was really clean. And I'm sure they're like, oh, yeah, they didn't clean out the toilet paper bin in that nasty bathroom. That'd be the worst.

[C]

Reminds me of the story of one of my friends back when we were in elementary school. I remember him telling me about this time he went camping with this other kid and they were like staying in this, like, obviously a camper, but like they weren't flushing the toilet paper, so they were like throwing it.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, we caught one.

[E]

No way, dude.

[B]

Lost them. Had him. But then we lost them.

[E]

Oh, spinny.

[C]

But anyway, so like they were like throwing it in this like little like basically a trash can. Like what you say. And like for some reason he was sleeping in like a sleeping bag and like he was sleeping on the floor like super close to like that trash can. I guess he was there for like a week. But I just remember him telling me like, yeah, it sucked. It sucked and it smelled so bad and you know, it just. It was like one of those families that's kind of difficult to be around and he didn't really know until he was already in it, you know, camping and wherever they were camping and toilet paper and jars. That sounds tough, but yeah, that Mexico sounds very similar.

[E]

Yes. Mexico.

[A]

Yeah, my. I guess my experience wasn't quite like.

[C]

That, but you're probably staying a nice place. Dude, that wedding you were at was, was insane.

[A]

It was insane. Yeah, it was crazy. It was, it was like, hands down like the most insane wedding I've ever been to.

[C]

I think that's a million dollar wedding.

[A]

I don't know, it's hard to say. Half a mile, half a mil, for sure, I'd say.

[E]

Really?

[A]

Yeah, bro.

[F]

Do you see the fireworks that they had and everything?

[C]

Like, dude, I can't wait for Monty Mike's wedding though, cuz I heard he's going to top it. One mil.

[A]

I was, yeah, I was, I was joking about that. Like, oh man, I better be sending videos and pics to Mike. But yeah, no, it was crazy. Like you gotta, I guess putting in context, like how wild it was. Like just after everyone got done eating dinner, they just gave out bottles of Casa Azul Jesus.

[C]

That had to be, which is like.

[A]

A $300 bottle of tequila. And they just walked around and just like handed them out. It's just like, here we go, let's get fucked up then.

[C]

Mexico. That's like Tito's.

[A]

Yeah, I think it's, it's like, you know, pretty disrespectful to not be drinking tequila.

[C]

I'd imagine.

[A]

So. Like, I was joking with my, my girlfriend's cousin's boyfriend. We're buddies and he was down there too. So we always joke like when we're out, you know, getting into it, like drinking and partying together, like the girls are always, like, keeping an eye on us because we're pretty rowdy as they are. And so, like, we'll always joke, like, yeah, we were the best behaved guys at the party last night. Like, you haven't heard. People have been talking. So we were joking like the night after. Like, this was a three day wedding, right? So like three different events, like three days in a row. And so, like after the first night, we were just like joking with the girls, like, yeah. Oh, you guys didn't see, like, yeah, me and Ryan were in the. The Cabo news last for last night's party. Like, they just took a photo of us standing there and, and just captioned it like, best behaved men in all of Cabo. Like, grace us with their presence.

[D]

Actually, what it said.

[C]

No, we were just joking in there, Mike.

[A]

Oh, we were just joking. Like, no, we were just like telling Greta and. And his girlfriend that.

[C]

And.

[A]

And so we're, you know, we're laughing about it and the girls, like, know it's a joke at this point, but other people didn't, right? So, like, me and, me and Ryan were kind of just like playing it out and like, telling other people that, like, yeah, like, yeah, me and Ryan are in Cabo today, like, best behaved men in all of Cabo. And people are like, wow, that's. That's crazy actually. Right?

[C]

You guys were terrible.

[F]

How does everybody else behaving, right?

[A]

And we're kind of joking about this like, you know, all three days. And. And on the last night, you know, there's photographers everywhere. So there was like four or five actual wedding photographers. Then there's a person running around filming everything on an iPhone. And then there's a person filming everything on an Android too. Straight up.

[C]

Vertical or like landscape?

[E]

Vertical. Oh, wow.

[C]

Vertical.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

Was getting landscape, Mike.

[A]

Yes, there was probably people getting landscape too.

[B]

Vertical Drone, guys. Any drone guys? Fpv. Multiple drone guys.

[C]

There was drone.

[F]

There was drone doing the vows.

[A]

Just like I'm standing there getting a drink, and the photographer comes up and is like, I love the way you're standing. Stay just like that. And I'm like, like, I'm kind of looking over, right?

[E]

One eye closed, looking for tequila.

[A]

Yeah, I'm like, I'm ordering a drink and I have a drink in my hand, right? I'm like, okay, yeah, you like that, you know?

[B]

Oh, like this.

[C]

Ye.

[A]

So I'm standing there and. And they're snapping away, right? I was just enjoying myself. And me and Ryan were laughing at each other. Like, man, they're probably gonna take a photo of us tonight and post it tomorrow and say well deserved night off for the best behaved in Cabo.

[B]

Right?

[A]

I'm editing the video yesterday and I just get a text from my girlfriend's brother who's got a bunch of friends down there, and he just goes, bro, you're in Cabo today.

[E]

What?

[A]

Yeah. And it's this photo of me standing there striking a pose. And it's in the newspaper. Look at me, bro.

[E]

What the.

[C]

Why were you in the paper? Just for this exuberant wedding or what?

[A]

No, I think they just.

[D]

They just bunch of photos and they have one of you, which is insanely ironic.

[A]

No, I think it was because like they. They were just like. Yeah, I mean like such a well behaved man. Like we need to. We need to document this moment.

[D]

But then it all made sense.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

They use your name?

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

They knew it was you or it wasn't just like a guest.

Tint was trying to schmooze me into going to Florida.

[C]

He wanted you to come back, huh?

But anyways. Yeah, you should come with. Yeah, you should come with too, since you don't have anything. Justin, you're having a baby.

[F]

So I'm having a baby. Well, my wife's having a baby. And I'm probably going to tell you.

[C]

Justin might be having a baby tonight. You had a burrito for lunch.

[G]

What are you planning? Siege.

[C]

I don't know we're going to Florida though. Like clear water or something.

[G]

Florida sounds pretty nice.

[C]

Come with.

[G]

I'm either going to do that or I'm going to be out on the ice fishing with Justin the whole time. So.

[F]

Yeah, cuz if, if you're staying back, then I'm. We're going to post up right in here and just dangle.

[A]

Did you guys hear about the. The one guy from Wisconsin that went missing and they did like a full man hunt for him for two months and then they. They ended up tracking him down. And he faked his own death?

[E]

Yeah, he faked in Wisconsin and then they've ended up finding him. But he was in a YouTube video before. Do you hear about that?

[F]

Oh, I know who you're talking about.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

You didn't hear about that part of it.

[F]

Yeah, they got him on an interview.

[E]

He's on like a man on the street interview in like, let's say Santa Monica, I'm not sure, but a warm area and some ladies asking questions and it's like, what are you contemplating? And he's like, I was thinking about moving to the Ukraine. And she's like, why? And she's like, for. For a woman. He's like, okay. And then like acts, asks him a couple more questions, and then he's bikes off and then they figured out later that it was him.

[C]

I won't be on news. I'm played into it.

[A]

Well, yeah, okay, so what.

[C]

I guess.

[A]

What's confusing about it? So. So he goes out like 45, and he had like a wife and kids.

[C]

That makes sense why he did it.

[E]

Because he was 45. 45.

[F]

He's just like.

[C]

He's trying to get out of his marriage. He's ready for a different life.

[A]

I see where he was coming from.

[C]

I mean, it makes sense.

[A]

Not quite as clear as CJ Coming to that conclusion real quick.

[C]

This guy might just get divorced, but.

[A]

Yeah, I don't know. It's pretty heavy. Pretty heavy. I don't know. Then what. What happened?

[C]

So how recent was it?

[A]

No one knows what happened, like, right? No, no, no, I know what happened. I was just trying to think of, like, why, Like, I mean, what was going through his head?

[C]

I put money.

[A]

Okay, so the guy. What'd you just say?

[C]

I said I'd put money on it. That that's exactly what happened.

[A]

Then what happened?

[C]

He's trying to get out of his marriage he was sick of doing.

[A]

Yeah. So the guy met a chick online, right? And he. She was from Georgia or Jordan.

[C]

Georgia.

[A]

Right. He goes out on a kayak, and he, like, capsizes the kayak with all of his, like, wallet and phone and everything. And so it looked. It looked like he had, like, drowned. And then he took a inflatable, paddled back to shore, and then he took, like, three trains to Canada. And then.

[H]

E bike. He biked to a bus station, cross the border into Canada, and then took a flight to Europe.

[A]

Took a flight to Europe? Yeah. Okay. So then when he did that, though, he backed up his computer, and then they were able to, like, track his computer, and so they knew he was still active, I believe. And then they emailed him, like, saying, like, hey, we know you're alive. Like, we just spent the last two months doing, like, a manhunt. Like, now you're in trouble for this and that. And then the guy, like, emailed back a video of him, like, in this apartment, saying, like, I'm okay. I'm safe. I'm well. And then I thought that was the end of it. And then they were still looking for him. So then I thought for sure, like, the geoguess were gonna be put on it. Like, where's this apartment? Like, how can we track them down?

[H]

See, he also.

[C]

He didn't need to break the law, though.

[H]

He also took out a $375,000 life insurance policy, transferred it to a foreign bank account, and then.

[C]

Yeah, okay, that he faked his own death and made the money off of his own thing. He didn't even give it to his family.

[A]

Yeah, that's illegal.

[C]

As a dick.

[H]

How did he even.

[C]

This guy is a dick. Seriously, how did he fake your death and put him through that, going to Europe?

[B]

I have, like. I had water damage on my passport, and I didn't get let through, so he must have had, like, fake passports and stuff, too.

[E]

You had water damage on your passport?

[B]

I had, like, a minor water damage on my passport, and I missed a trip to Italy for it. What? Yeah, I showed up. I showed up at the counter, and I had already gone to, like, Japan and France and stuff. And I showed up at the counter, like, two hours from my flight, hand the lady my passport, and she's like, yeah, we can't accept this. And I'm like, what do you mean you can't accept it? Like, I just flew to Japan, like, a month ago. Like, what do you mean? And she's like, yeah, like, our airline won't accept this. Like, you. You can't fly. And I'm like, how? Like, it just did. And then I just. Yeah, I Had to get another flight. So I missed a flight and then paid another two grand. So like how this guy must have had like some crazy passports or something.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[D]

Put it in rice or anything.

[B]

Well, no, I mean, I tried, but it had like the, the font was diluted.

[D]

Those are the worst situations.

[E]

I would have gotten to a different counter.

[B]

Yeah, well, no, I tried, I tried, I tried. And then they, the manager came and the manager was like getting mad at me and they're the first thing. They're mad because my bag was overweight and I was carrying like four bags. So they're just all pissed about that. And then the passport on top, it was like, yeah, they're like, I guess. I don't know. They just turned me away. It was weird.

[E]

They said, no way is this guy no traveling.

[B]

So I had to buy another flight that was like, I think it was 2700 for another flight. Like five hours.

[A]

Where'd you fly, the moon?

[B]

I was going to Italy. Flights are expensive. It's like a 18 hour flight, I guess.

[A]

Makes. Makes sense.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Anyway, dude, what a weird man. Where he thought like, yeah, I'm going to put my, my family through that rather than like ask for a divorce.

[C]

That's a real asshole move.

[E]

No kidding.

[C]

Like that. I don't know if you can be much worse. Talk about like non confrontation. Like, dude, that'd be Ken.

[A]

Doing that.

[C]

Dude.

[A]

He's like, damn, that's a good.

[C]

Except Ken wouldn't leave the country. Just go to Vegas.

[A]

What'd be nice for you, Ken, is you could just go back to your original name.

[H]

That would be easier.

[A]

All you would have to do is just drop this new alter ego that you've kind of been pushed off, shave.

[C]

Your beard, and life would be completely different.

[A]

I don't know Far he's like, I.

[D]

Can fake my death, but I'm not shaving my beard.

[C]

I did that once.

[A]

God.

[C]

Remember Ken shaved beard era this summer.

[H]

That was disturbing.

[A]

He showed up and we were all like, bro.

[C]

What?

[A]

What bro? You're on Bob's Burgers.

[C]

You kind of look like a guy from Bob's Burgers.

[H]

It made me feel uncomfortable just looking in the mirror.

[C]

Ken took all the mirrors out of the house during that month.

[H]

Yeah, they just all managed to break. I don't know what happened.

[C]

Colin's got a pic of you. Show Ken. Show Ken. Get his face.

[E]

Ken. How did you end up in that scenario? How did you end up with that short of a beard?

[H]

So it started like we had the goatee thing with For Evan and Rich. And then I tried to trim it and then I used the wrong, like, guard, so it was just way too short. And I was like, I. I can't just leave it, like, patchy. I had to go the whole way.

[B]

Would you hit. You hit the number one on the beard by accident?

[H]

I hit the number three when I was trying for the number 12.

[D]

Thank you for that play by Dude.

[E]

I was in Arizona this last weekend and I forgot my beard trimmer. And, like, I was pretty scruffy, so I was like, I probably, like, got to take care of this. I walked by like a barber shop and I was like, well, they probably cut beards and like, why would I buy a whole nother trimmer thing when I could just pay for a beard trim? So I walked in there and this old man at the counter slaps me. You know, I think, I can't remember what movie did, but, like, when they come in, they slap all the stuff on your face and lather you up with foam and put you.

[A]

Did he sit you down at least before he.

[F]

He just walks you back?

[E]

He sat me down and yeah, dude. He like went through this whole thing and, like, shaped up my beard. I was so nervous, dude. He started doing the thing where, like, they cut in, like the line in your beard. Yeah, I was like, oh, my God, I'm going to look so stupid.

[A]

Did he do it with like, the actual razor blade?

[E]

Yeah, he did like a five step process like they do on your hair. You know, where they do the big rays or the big buzzer and then the small buzzer and then the scissors and then they used like a skin one and then they used a straight blade. It took like 35 minutes. First of all, I thought, great. Yeah, it was awesome. Like, they just did it and I thought I looked nice. Like, I thought they did a good job.

[A]

Did anyone tell you that?

[E]

No.

[A]

No.

[E]

And it so comes time to pay, I'm like, ah, you know, whatever. It's just a little beard trim. It can't be that much. 45 bucks. Get your beard trimmed up in Scottsdale.

[D]

I'm glad it's an experience, but that's steep.

[A]

Yeah, it'd be kind of funny if, like, I went in.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You know? Yeah. Just give me looking. Right, boss? He's like, looking at me like, bro, you have nothing on your face.

[E]

Like, just tweezes the one hair.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Sends you on your way.

[F]

Still 45 bucks.

[G]

I wonder how much money I've saved in the last four and a half years not having to go to the barber once.

[C]

Probably quite a bit.

[D]

I was thinking about that the other day. That, like, haircuts just aren't a thing for you. It's kind of part of your daily routine. Yeah.

[A]

Every day.

[G]

Shave it, get a new haircut every single day.

[D]

But, like, scheduling an appointment, whatever going.

[G]

In for, I don't have to worry about it all.

[D]

That none of it doesn't exist for you.

[G]

I did send somebody a picture of me from 2015 today. And I had, like, the opposite. Like, I had hair on my head. Nothing on my face was pretty strange to see.

[F]

That makes me so uncomfortable. Like, somebody. I don't want to out you like this, but somebody sent a picture of you from 2015.

[G]

No, I sent. I sent the picture myself.

[F]

It's normal.

[G]

Don't worry about it.

[F]

That scared the shit out. Don't worry about it. Like, I didn't recognize you. No.

[G]

Yeah. I didn't recognize myself is what I'm getting at.

[D]

I think you look better now, baby.

[A]

Let's go. It's big.

[C]

Dude. That's a good sized fish.

[A]

Nice.

[G]

Of course, the Canadian gets the first one.

[A]

Look at that. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.

[B]

He slipped.

[C]

Grab your pole.

[E]

Does he still have your hook?

[B]

No, he took it with him. He took my hook with him.

[E]

And the whole rod.

[B]

No, the rod's here.

[G]

You broke your line.

[A]

Damn. Bummer.

[C]

Catch him again, that guy's gonna have a hook handle.

[F]

Shake it.

[E]

Are we.

[B]

Are we using barbs or are we playing for keeps or what?

[F]

Those were. Those were barbed.

[C]

Well, we caught a fish. Thank God. I didn't think we. I was starting to wonder.

[A]

It wasn't looking good, Spenny. You kind of panicked there, got excited, man.

[B]

It's a lot of action. Yeah, well, haven't seen action like that in a while.

[F]

Yeah.

[D]

What would you say if we said, doesn't count?

[A]

I don't stand on anything for that. Yeah.

[C]

You didn't pick it up. You didn't like.

[F]

Yeah, you gotta hold it.

[C]

Were you just, like, keeping it sitting there?

[B]

Can't tell you, man.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

What's your secret?

[B]

I can't tell you.

[D]

He's been working.

[B]

I can't tell you.

[A]

Have you been working it?

[D]

I can't tell you.

[B]

I can't tell you how I use my pole.

[D]

Why not, though?

[B]

Because then I. I don't want to be the last guy to jump in.

[A]

The last guy to jump in?

[B]

I thought you said whoever doesn't cast the most has to jump in. Cast, catch the most.

[E]

We're in A fish house.

[B]

Catch the most.

[A]

You feeling all right?

[C]

It'd actually be pretty brutal. Ice bathing, dude.

[A]

Rumor has it, if we stay in here long enough, a wild Jake Sherbrooke will pop out through the hole.

[E]

He'll just swim underneath and pop up.

[A]

I wonder if Jake would come out here and cold plunge in this at the end of the pod. Somebody shoot him a text. Dude, cold plunges were, like, so popular last year.

[C]

Still are popular.

[A]

Are they? Are they? I think.

[C]

I don't think everyone's talking about them as much because, like, it's either something you do and you, like, keep doing.

[A]

Or, yeah, you kind of get over.

[C]

It's kind of like a fad.

[G]

I can tell you, the one that I did last week, the few days after, was the best I've felt in a long time.

[B]

Really?

[D]

Yeah.

[G]

I gotta. I keep up with it because, like, my back hasn't been hurting as bad. It's definitely worth it.

[D]

Wow.

[E]

What's like, another health fad that's, like, come and gone that they figured out, like, wasn't good for you?

[C]

Smoking cigarettes? These. Think it was healthy for you.

[E]

Really?

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

That. That doesn't really seem like it's healthy for you, but I do wonder that, like, I'm a cold plunger. Like, I think they're good, but I wonder if too much cold plunging is bad for you. Like, if it's hard on your heart, if it's hard on your body, if it's hard on your nerve endings, probably.

[C]

Hard on your nuts. Dude.

[E]

What's worse for your nuts? Heat or cold?

[C]

Either end.

[E]

Either end.

[C]

Yeah. I think just doing both. Like, they say if you wear boxer briefs and they're too tight, then your nuts can't sag and they get too hot.

[A]

Really?

[C]

Then it can, like, kill your sperm count and your testosterone.

[A]

I think hot tubs are pretty bad for your nuts.

[C]

I mean, it depends how long you're staying in. It really just boils down to moderation.

[E]

Yeah, I feel like moderation.

[C]

Yeah. I mean, who knows? Honestly?

[A]

Maybe.

[C]

Maybe cold plunging every day.

[F]

Oh.

[E]

Oh, my gosh.

[D]

He's running away on you.

[E]

Your little rod is bending.

[B]

Oh.

[E]

Oh.

[C]

Is it the same fish? Is it the same fish? Another pike. Go.

[D]

There you go, dude.

[E]

The night bite. We're heating up, fellas. You gotta hold it, Benny.

[A]

Hey.

[C]

Here we go. Nice. That's pretty awesome. It looks just like your spinny. But it's not.

[D]

Looks just like you, Ben. Guess it.

[C]

It looks. It's got your eyes.

[D]

Looks just like you, dude. They just are like, angry.

[C]

He's just walking down, dude. He doesn't want you to take it out. Gosh, how fun would be of. Ben got bit by this pike. Dude. This guy's clamped down. He ain't like it. I think you got to let up, Ben. So he opens his mouth. You're squeezing him, too, too high.

[F]

It's like a dog.

[E]

You're, like, prying the tennis ball out of the dog's mouth right now.

[C]

Two fish in 39 minutes.

[D]

Pretty good.

[E]

Not bad.

[C]

Just. We keep the ice fishing master out here. He goes by himself. How long can a fish stay out of water?

[F]

Pike can stay out of water for a while.

[E]

Hold it really, really close to the camera.

[C]

It's kind of small.

[A]

Look at this thing. Insanely big fish. What is it, 45 inches?

[F]

Yeah, at least. 45 could be touching 46.

[E]

You could tell by the way your hands go all the way around it.

[B]

What are you doing?

[A]

Are you.

[H]

Bench?

[F]

Just like. So this is my pet now.

[D]

You held it and then just stared.

[A]

Into the hole and smiled.

[B]

Oh, he's a floater.

[C]

Killed him.

[F]

Nah, he's chilling.

[E]

He's coming back for the Modelos.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

Nope.

[A]

See you later.

[E]

And he's gone.

[D]

Yeah. Dude.

[E]

You know, one of my favorite ice fishing memories ever. Obviously, Jeff's fish. We've talked about that before, but when we came out here and Ken took a minnow shot with fireball.

[C]

Oh, my gosh.

[E]

And then he spits it back up and he goes, oh, I hate cinnamon.

[C]

Dude.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Ken threw up.

[H]

Was that for our 1 or 2 million?

[C]

1 million. And then I threw up after you started throwing up. Here we go.

[A]

Come on, Ken.

[E]

You didn't even puke.

[H]

I hate fireball.

[A]

What?

[H]

I kind of caused the chain reaction.

[C]

Yeah. I think I threw up in the ice house. I think another person.

[H]

I at least made it outside.

[E]

And then Randy sold a fish house.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

We were borrowing Ryan's dad's fish house, and then he sold that motherfucker because it smelled like puke.

[E]

Puke in there. He's like, really? I use this thing, like, twice a year now. It smells like puke.

[A]

Dude, that was sick. I see why people do it. You like that spinny?

[B]

How'd it feel to pet that little thing?

[A]

Yeah, that was nice. Are we counting that as the first fish?

[F]

I mean, Spenny didn't hold his up to the camera, so.

[C]

Yeah, we didn't say Ben got the first one. Yours was.

[B]

I got mine up by the line.

[C]

I'd say the camera. That's a Half for you.

[F]

I do think Spenny's was bigger, though. Spinning's was a little bit bigger than Ben's.

[B]

Mine probably would have ate Ben.

[C]

Yours was big. Well, we'll know if we catch Spenny's because it still has a hook hanging.

[A]

It's gonna become a Lake Ida legend.

[D]

Yeah.

[F]

Call it jingles.

[G]

That wasn't the Jeff's fish lure, was it?

[F]

That was the Jeff's fish lure.

[E]

No.

[C]

So.

[F]

Okay, guys, easy. Spenny doesn't know. It's like when a dog shits on your couch or something, but they don't know any better. So you did just on the couch.

[C]

But lost one of the most legendary lures.

[E]

To be fair, that lure should have been on the wall.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Not the fish.

[D]

That was a family heirloom.

[A]

Was it?

[F]

Yeah, I got that from my grandpa's grandpa's sister's brother in law, so probably fine. Yeah, it'll be fine.

[C]

Yeah.

[F]

Don't worry about it.

[B]

I'll catch it back.

[A]

Don't worry.

[F]

All right.

[B]

Yeah, I would catch it back.

[D]

Most epic thing ever.

[F]

Yeah.

[D]

Yeah.

[F]

Then we're all jumping in the hole.

[B]

That would be a leg.

[F]

You catch that same fish and it's still got the lure in its mouth.

[D]

We're all.

[B]

I'd probably pull my whole bank account out and put it on red.

[C]

You catch it. We're doing that.

[A]

You know, Ken doesn't need an excuse to go to Vegas. This is actually probably a good time. Ken, I got a question for you.

[D]

Fire away.

[A]

We had friends giving a couple weeks ago and everyone was there except for Ken.

[H]

Some other people, they did a chili cook off and I went to that. I was going to go there for an hour and then I was going to go to Friendsgiving. And then it just turned into a lot of shots. And I didn't want to drive the 30 minutes into DL where friends giving was, so I. I had to write that one off.

[A]

You got some heat from the girls, Ken?

[F]

Yeah, the ladies were.

[H]

Well, I'd rather take some heat from the girls than a Dewey.

[A]

They're pretty convinced that you're mad at them or something?

[H]

Well, I mean, no, but yeah.

[A]

Why?

[H]

Because they've been exploiting me on their TikTok page.

[D]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. They could do it that night.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Let's just say Greta was more upset than. Than anyone.

[H]

Why?

[C]

Because she tore the contest.

[H]

She missed out on some tiktoks.

[A]

Yes. She had. Yeah. Let's just say a whole plan for it.

[D]

You imagine her shaking you at like 1am being like, this just isn't pulling the views I was hoping, of course didn't show up.

[A]

Yeah, no. Greta was like telling me all these different TikToks that she was. She wanted to film and she always wants me to hop in on them because for some reason I wonder why they do better. But thankfully she got Ken to hop in on some of them when we were in Nashville and they exploded. They did, they did insane numbers. So Greta doesn't even ask me anymore. She's like, what do you think Ken's doing?

[C]

She knows who the thumbnail guy is.

[A]

She's like, you should invite Ken over.

[H]

You little worried about that?

[A]

Do you think? Ken. Ken, go for it. She's like, you think Ken would want to like go out to dinner with us? Was Ken to start third wheeling us?

[H]

I might have to put a stop to some of these TikToks for a little bit. I've been a little too exposed on there really.

[F]

Can you elaborate on TikTok? You're exposed on TikTok down there for.

[H]

That Chinese censorship app.

[C]

What's the deal with that? I heard they were like going to ban Tik Tok like for years now. I just saw another thing. Are they actually going to like. I don't foresee it.

[D]

I don't really either. But they keep talking about it.

[H]

They've talked about that on and off for like five years.

[C]

I'm not really a tick tock guy, so it would literally be no hair off my chest.

[A]

I hope.

[C]

I know a lot of people freaking love it.

[A]

I hope TikTok is banned.

[E]

Why? Because they keep taking your tick tocks.

[A]

Yes. That's a large, large part of it.

[C]

Did you set up your Xbox yet? Yeah.

[D]

You didn't set up your Xbox yet?

[A]

I haven't set my Xbox up yet.

[G]

Why didn't you set up your Xbox yet?

[D]

Yeah, why?

[C]

Well, I've been late tonight.

[A]

I've been home one night in the last week.

[F]

Yeah, because you don't have your Xbox set up.

[A]

It might be. That might be part of it. I actually am super excited to do it though, dude.

[E]

Honestly, an absolute insane boys night would be fishing till about 6 and then we go get dinner somewhere and then we go play Xbox. That would go insane.

[F]

We could play Xbox on the ice because you have a starlink. We have generators, have Xbox on ice.

[C]

That reminds me me. That reminds me of when we did the igloo and we were watching UFC and we were playing what is a Nintendo Switch? That'd be so fun.

[H]

It's only going to take like three days to update my Xbox cuz it hasn't been turned on in like two years.

[F]

But what kind of Xbox do you have if you just say. If you say 360.

[H]

No, it's. Is it an S? It's the rectangle. It's not the.

[C]

They're all rectangle.

[H]

Well, one one's like.

[F]

It's the one that's shaped like a box and a little more square.

[C]

I actually just got the new Xbox because I was kind of dogging on it a couple pods ago, but I was like, you know, I got to give it a try. These guys are all doing it. And then I had an old ass Xbox. Had the original Xbox One, had to go swap it out and I'm ready to go home, play the new Call of Duty. That shit was so fun.

[A]

You got back into it.

[C]

Yeah, so, so fun got turned up too. I hate to say it. Really tearing it up.

[B]

What are you running War Zone? Team Deathmatch?

[C]

Just like, just everything.

[A]

Everything.

[C]

I don't have like game type gun game, dude.

[F]

Prop hunt nights when we used to play prop hunt at the college house, that was. My God.

[C]

So funny, dude.

[A]

Yeah.

[F]

Oh, that's the best.

[D]

Do they still have that?

[F]

Yeah, they brought it back for this new game. CJ won't say it, but I'm pretty sure that's why it got the Xbox. Just to play prop hunt. Just solo.

[A]

I can't take Mike. Serious.

[E]

Is that Ken's old jacket?

[B]

No, that's not.

[E]

Ken's trash bag went over this.

[A]

It looks like it threw it away.

[E]

Ken, you threw away your trash bag? Oh, he still got it. Okay, good.

[D]

I don't know why he'd throw it away. I really should be wearing the big red hat.

[A]

Then you got.

[E]

Oh yeah, then it'd be perfect.

[A]

That would actually been hilarious.

[D]

Yeah, and I'm pretty. Justin, are you wearing Ken's underwear or did you end up Ryan's driving Ken's car?

[F]

Ken's old family man.

[E]

Only for another week, dude. Ken's pretty fertile for that.

[A]

Ken, you really are a homie. Hookup.

[H]

I swear more people have driven my Bronco in the last six months than me.

[C]

I believe it.

[H]

I put on maybe 500 miles on that thing and it's. It's had like 3,000 miles put on it.

[B]

You kind of like that.

[F]

Have you looked at it lately?

[E]

Bro, I have driven it all over Timbuktu, brother. Put like 1500 miles on zip out from you.

[H]

Taking on a road just under 10,000. When I let you start driving.

[E]

Oh, bro, I think it's like 115 now. I have been taking it through holiday a lot, though. Have you noticed it's been clean?

[H]

I appreciate that. Oh, jam, you too. You have driven it a lot. Things gonna need an oil change soon.

[E]

My gift like to. When I gave it back to you, it was gonna be that I filled it up with gas and then maybe cleaned it a little bit. And now I'm gonna have to get you an oil change, clean it, detail it, because it's pretty dirty, and fill it up with gas.

[H]

At least it's being used.

[A]

Oh, cj, you're on top of the ice. Why am I not catching CJ's face jigging?

[F]

Yes, he's under the water.

[C]

I was looking at the thing, wondering which one was mine. Cut that down a little bit.

[A]

What temperature do you guys think is, like, really cold? Like, when you walk outside, you're like, damn, this sucks. Because it changes now. Like, you know, with the seasons. You kind of. You kind of get used to it. You know where 30 degrees is super cold, and then 30 degrees is like spring day.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Literally, I think I walked zero. Anything below zero walked outside today, and it was six above and the sun was shining, and I thought it was like 25 out. I was like, this is really nice.

[B]

I know.

[D]

I was just saying that to Ryan. We were filming the mini excavators. No really snow on the ground. It was freezing that day. But realistically, it was like 25 with some wind. And now it's like negative five with some wind.

[E]

I was gonna say seven. Like, if it gets below seven, then it's just. It's pretty cold.

[A]

Wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the wind, man. This is a Minnesota podcast. Sitting in a nice fishing tent, talking about the weather.

[F]

Yeah.

[D]

Say something to try to, like, troll someone and get them to have a conversation. I always say that. I'm like, dude, like, however wind got invented, like, it's so bogus. And then someone takes you seriously, and they're like, dude, like, no one invented wind. And I'm like, well, yeah, someone had to. Otherwise, where would it. Like, where would it come from?

[A]

Don't some people think that, like, windmills make it windier?

[D]

Oh, yeah.

[B]

Yes.

[D]

You can convince. I mean, it sounds like something you would convince someone else.

[E]

There was a whole thing on Pelican Lake, a lake right over by us, that when they put the windmills up, there was like, a whole community that was like, oh, there the windmills are making it windy around here. Never used to be this windy until they put the windmills in and they were trying to get them taken down, which is actually kind of insane.

[F]

That's hilarious.

[G]

To be fair, they're the ugliest thing on that. They ruined the view on that part of the lake. So, I mean, I kind of see where they're coming from.

[C]

I don't think they're that ugly.

[E]

Yeah, I don't hate them anymore. I think they add to the landscape.

[D]

Yeah, you think they're ugly. But when they started coming about, I remember being like, whoa, we got the big white windmills. And I still feel kind of that way about them.

[H]

I view, like, some of these cell towers as more of, like, a visual nuisance than those windmills are ugly.

[A]

Yeah, they all.

[F]

Yeah, they just look like power is.

[C]

Bad for your health, too. Like, they emit radiation.

[D]

I mean.

[A]

Yeah, I think it's conspiracy 5G. 5G, bro.

[E]

I can't remember who we were talking.

[F]

I'll debate this one to my death. There's no shot that's doing anything to you. It's way too low power. Like, radio transmissions need to be a way higher power amount to actually do anything to your physical DNA.

[E]

Yeah, but what about the gay frogs?

[A]

Yeah, over, like, over the course of what? Like, you will be exposed.

[F]

Over your lifetime, you will be exposed to. It's not going to do anything. It's way too low a power to cause any kind of impact to your health. There's no shot, man.

[A]

I don't know, Justin. I could see in, like, 20 years, people coming out, like, the facts coming out differently from cell phones.

[F]

There's been plenty of time and data to come out on it. I don't think there's anything that's gonna cause any damage. It's very, very, very low transmission.

[A]

Doesn't it say that you're supposed to, like, hold your iPhone, like, off your body, like, even. Even in Apple.

[E]

But what about when you. When you're walking up to your car and you're gonna. You don't have enough range, like, you know, to astro. Start your car, and if you put it to your chin, then it'll work with that?

[F]

I don't think it totally works.

[E]

You never done it.

[C]

I've never even heard of it.

[E]

Yeah, it uses your head as an antenna. Both Ben and Cesar are looking at me go, this explains so much.

[C]

Can't cause your head to grow.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Bro.

[A]

When Ryan was a kid, his parents had to park across the street. All right, honey, wake up and open up your mouth. Oh, that sounds soft.

[D]

So you guys were talking about.

[A]

That might explain a lot of his problems.

[D]

No, you guys were talking about 5G and your brains. But like, I always wonder when I'm like driving, I'll put my phone between my legs. And then I'm like, oh, yeah, probably shouldn't do that because the like RFID or whatever the.

[C]

Yeah, they say not to put on your nuts, but I'm surprised that you would even think of that. Mic. No offense, I'm just surprised. Thinking about taking.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

You just don't seem like you would care.

[D]

These pants have like RFID blockers.

[H]

RFID and RF are two completely different things.

[D]

Well, either way, I just want my. I just want my sack to be okay. I don't want it to radio waves.

[C]

You could freeze some sperm. They don't even have to worry about it. Really.

[A]

I've thought about doing that.

[E]

What would you do with it?

[C]

You just put in your.

[A]

Yeah, probably put it in my freezer.

[C]

What do you mean, what would I do?

[F]

Like, that should go in a different freezer.

[C]

You just get a little vial and then put in the back.

[D]

Dude, it's like pretty cool. I told out right now we should. We could do it.

[E]

All right, guys, end of this podcast.

[C]

It wouldn't be a bad idea to freeze your sperm.

[A]

I know. I've thought of. I've like it would.

[C]

I've thought about it mostly because I've.

[A]

Had a lot of problems like over the years.

[E]

True.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

One time I got a hernia in my nuts. Third nut. One time I got a really bad cyst. I still have that actually in my nut.

[E]

I thought the hernia and the cyst were the same thing.

[A]

No, they were different.

[E]

Really? Two different things?

[A]

Yeah, they were two different things.

[E]

Two different nut related injuries.

[A]

Yeah. Kind of strange. So. Yeah, I have. I have contemplated that, cj. Honestly, I don't know if it would be. Yeah.

[C]

You use this thing as a function. If I were you, I would.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Is Greta into some weird. He's punching your sack. Mike Tyson speed bag. Speed bag being kicked in the nuts or whatever.

[A]

The old one two Mayweather on the side.

[B]

Is she speed bagging it?

[C]

Just.

[F]

I love the boxer dude. Is she speed bagging it?

[E]

Hey, real quick, speed bag.

[C]

Ben just looks over and goes, yeah. And he goes, nice.

[A]

Your girl isn't speed bagging.

[B]

Well, I do got a hernia, so maybe I got something going of the same going on.

[C]

Really?

[E]

Do you have a hernia?

[B]

I've had one since March and I'm too scared to go get the surgery.

[C]

And you have a third nut.

[B]

No, just two.

[C]

Like cuz that happens.

[B]

No, it's like gral.

[A]

It's gral.

[B]

So like almost above, dude.

[C]

You guys had a lot of the same kind of.

[B]

Yeah, me and Ben do kind of look alike too.

[E]

Canadian today though.

[B]

Yeah, he does.

[C]

Yeah. You're looking like USA man here. Captain America.

[E]

Do you think it's cuz you ride dirt bikes, dude? Like I never hear quad guys getting freaking hernias.

[A]

Yeah, they.

[F]

Say it. Say it.

[B]

Been riding a lot of quads lately.

[E]

Has it been feeling better?

[F]

Is that pre or.

[B]

It has been feeling better.

[E]

Actually heard it here first.

[F]

Quads cure hernias.

[B]

So did we catch them all or are they still down there?

[A]

What's going on here?

[E]

Like actually though, Justin. So I mean like when you. Are we just too late to the party?

[F]

Oh yeah. About an hour.

[E]

Interesting.

[C]

This is probably an unpopular opinion, but I think I like ice fishing better than regular fishing.

[F]

That's not an unpopular opinion at all.

[C]

Yeah, because you're just chilling like you set up camp. You're just chilling in like a cool little fort basically for however long. Whereas you're on a boat. It's hot, you're rocking like. God, I don't know if I want to be sitting on the boat. I want to be in the boat.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

In the water.

[G]

You know, I put my boat in this spring and the next time I touched it, I was taking it out. I didn't use it once. And I'm all fired up for ice fishing. I can't wait to spend some days out here with Justin.

[F]

Oh yeah.

[G]

Ripping some lips.

[F]

Absolutely.

[G]

Spenny's fired up for it too.

[B]

I've been off the fishing. I used to go a lot. I kind of retired though.

[G]

You have to come out of retirement. I think if you're spending more time down here.

[B]

Yeah, I might have to.

[F]

We got to go spearing. Dude. I still can't believe that you can't spear pike in Canada. That is such a.

[C]

That's the best kind of spirit is probably more exhilarating.

[E]

Yeah.

[F]

Because then like when pike. You put a decoy down in there and you can see the pike.

[A]

Yeah.

[F]

And then launch a spear at them. It's the best.

[B]

Normally actually, when I fish in Canada, we're fishing at like, like 70 to 75 to 80ft.

[F]

Yeah.

[D]

You do.

[F]

You do trout fishing?

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So quite a bit deeper. Like right now we're only fishing what, 12ft? 12.4.

[F]

Yeah. This lake's only a deepest spot in. This lake's like 19ft.

[B]

Yeah, we're going, like, deep, dude.

[C]

You guys hear that? They sold our wakeboard boat.

[G]

They did, Yeah, I did see that.

[C]

Yeah. It went to some guy in Philadelphia. No way.

[G]

Sad to see it go, but.

[C]

Yeah, I am kind of sad to see it go, but it's. She was a great boat. Great boat, but I think we might be able to build another one again. So we'll have to figure out a color scheme.

[A]

If we did Red.

[C]

Yeah, red would be sick.

[B]

All red.

[A]

Red, all red.

[C]

Black interior.

[A]

Why mess with perfection?

[C]

I wonder why that boat took so long to kind of sell. Like, it didn't necessarily take that long. I guess it was only list. It was listed in the off season, but it didn't sell that first season. You think because it was red. And a lot of people don't want.

[A]

A big red boat because they say resale.

[D]

Resale, red, big price tag.

[A]

I think. Yeah, it's probably a big boat. Big boat, smaller market.

[C]

Yeah, you're right. It's just. It's just expensive, but big boat.

[A]

Yeah. Shout out you motors, though. Coming through for us.

[C]

Seriously, the best. The.

[A]

The deal with that boat is like, we got to design it, pick everything about it, from the size to the color of the interior to the exterior. Like, they. They told us, like, don't spare any expenses. Do whatever you wanted it up. Yeah. Because we were like, you know, are you sure we can do this? They're like, yeah, do that. And then we ended up, you know, ordering it up. And then, like, we got a call from the GM being like, hey, I noticed that you didn't have the best stereo on it. So I just went ahead and upgraded that. It was like a $20,000 option. Like, just crazy. Like, the boat had every spec possible. And then it was just like a marketing boat for Centurion and U Motors, which is the dealership. And it was just like kind of just a win. Win for both of them because they have, like, demo boats for, you know, just like, to get. Yeah. To get people into it. And so it was just like a demo boat to have some exposure for them, and we got to use it and do whatever we wanted with it.

[H]

So.

[C]

Awesome. Dude, I love that boat.

[A]

Hopefully get something very similar to it and maybe a different company, but kind of work the same deal.

[F]

So here's maybe my mildly hot take is I think that pontoon was way cooler than that boat.

[A]

Really?

[F]

Yeah. That's good. That pontoon Is so badass.

[C]

That makes one of us.

[A]

I think it was.

[D]

It was tough. Like, you guys know me. I love pontoons. Pontoons are sick. This one was the sickest. Yeah, but I mean, it's like you still can't beat a wakeboat.

[C]

It's kind of apples, oranges, in my opinion.

[A]

Yeah, it was kind of a similar deal with the pontoon. So the pontoon was like, gosh, I don't know, $250,000. 300. No more.

[G]

It was five, wasn't. It wasn't 500. I think it was half a mil.

[A]

Whatever it was was an absolutely insane amount. And they kind of just told us like, you know, free reign at getting the craziest pontoon possible. And yeah, worked similar deal. So I think somebody's gonna buy that one too. Think about that. Is like, there's so many guys out there that are just big dick swingers that want to have like the biggest boat on the lake and they don't. They have so much including. They have so much. So much money. They don't care, like how much it costs as long as they have like the coolest boat on the lake.

[C]

Quite us. But the other. The first part.

[A]

Yeah, I mean like that much for a pontoon. It's just crazy. But there's people out there. There's a lot of people out there.

[D]

Yeah. I always think about that when like jet ski. Ryan built the like typhoon, the side by side jet skis. And the price tag on it is 250,000. And I saw what goes into building it. But like at the end of the.

[C]

Day, like 250 is really not that much, especially when you're in Miami. So that thing all day for, you.

[D]

Know, I'm kind of bummed that we're like past the fishing point. Like I literally just put the rod.

[C]

In this in the first hour. Mike.

[D]

I didn't know there was more rods. Oh, watching you guys fish.

[G]

This is not the fishing hour. It's the drinking hour. Speaking of, Mike, you've been sober for a while. How's that going for you?

[D]

It's going good. It's a lot easier than I thought it would be.

[G]

There's one. There's one thing I know it hasn't helped you with, and that's your sleep.

[F]

Schedule, because that's still fucked. Sorry, Mike.

[D]

I was just thinking about that today. It has not helped my sleeping schedule at all. A little, like, less embarrassed sometimes in the mornings, but yeah, not.

[G]

Not hungover. That's. That's one.

[C]

That's one plus, how long have you been off the. Off the booze now? A month?

[D]

Yeah, like a month and a week.

[C]

It's pretty good, Mike.

[A]

Is that the longest you've gone since you were like 16?

[D]

No.

[A]

Really?

[E]

No.

[D]

I didn't even start drinking until I was 19.

[A]

Okay, so since you were 19.

[D]

I don't know. It has got to be probably since I was 21.

[C]

Yeah. For sure. 21.

[D]

Yeah. So it's pretty monumental.

[C]

Do you think you'll just live this way the rest of your life? Are you gonna. Time will go back to it. Time will tell.

[D]

Time will tell.

[C]

Hey, I'm at three and a half months now. Three and a half.

[B]

That's no booze.

[D]

That's a while.

[A]

What's your plan?

[C]

I don't know. I don't know.

[G]

I think CJ's drinking tonight or tomorrow.

[C]

Thinking about doing it, but honestly I'm. I'm fine with not. I'm probably gonna just keep it rolling.

[A]

Thinking about doing it when I was thinking about breaking.

[C]

I don't. I'll for sure drink like New Year's, but I don't know, I just don't have any desire to. And I just like feeling great in the morning, sleeping good. I don't know, I can enjoy just anything. Especially when you, like when you cut out so many, like, things in life. Like I, when I did, like, so I went on like a three and a half day fast and like, then I was on. I still am on like a pretty strict diet. It's like little things you appreciate so much more. Like just being able to drink a cup of black coffee in the morning. You just appreciate so much. And like, you know, just even like eating some fruit. Like, I don't feel the need to drink.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

There's really no benefit for me right now. I will again in the future, but.

[F]

Yeah, I know.

[G]

Props to you for sure. It's a long time.

[F]

Yeah, that's a very long time. And I don't drink that much, but I know that I probably couldn't go that long without anything.

[C]

So it's really not that hard, though. All it really is is just not doing something. If you think about it, I think.

[A]

This is an easier time of year for that. Like, it's tough in the summer.

[F]

Oh, yeah.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Like way harder in the summer, though.

[C]

I mean, I drink periodically, like maybe once every couple weeks. But. But yeah, I mean, it's definitely more of a fun time to be drinking, for sure.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Out on the boat, all that. But all I'm saying is you can have fun without drinking.

[A]

Yeah. You almost just have to, like, retrain yourself.

[C]

Yeah. When you learn how to do that, I don't know. It's just best not to be dependent on anything.

[A]

Was it hard, Mike?

[C]

Yeah, even Mike saying it's not hard.

[D]

It was surprisingly easy.

[C]

Just. Just the lack of there.

[D]

You just don't do it.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

But it does get harder in certain situations. Totally. But then you think about, like, oh, it's a lot harder on the boat. I'm like, gosh, it's a good thing we don't live in Florida. But then also you like Minnesota, Wisconsin. Like, there's a lot. There's a lot of drinking that goes on up here. I mean, especially in, like, fish houses right now in. In golfing. Like, this is. It's always going down in the Midwest.

[A]

I was sober for like five months, I think, and I broke my streak at NASCAR because it was just like, NASCAR was such a drinking environment.

[C]

Isn't it hard, though? Like, it's like hard to break it, though, after a certain amount of time. And this goes with, like, anything, though.

[A]

Yeah. Because he had a streak. And I was like, thing, damn, if I, if I made it through this, I could make it another two months easy of just like, looking at, like, kind of like events. And I was like, I don't know if it's worth it. I don't know if it's worth it. And then I was like, it, well.

[C]

You gotta break it eventually. Like, that's the thing. But yeah, like, I'm like, I don't want to, but I will.

[E]

I don't want to.

[A]

Well, it's different. It's different if. If you quit drinking for a reason of you have a problem or if you quit drinking for a reason of your health.

[E]

True.

[A]

And my reason that I quit drinking was because of my health. And I did it in hopes that I would feel better. And I didn't end up feeling better. So I was just like, it. I'm like, am I doing this? Yeah, I would rather do it to have a better time in this situation that I'm in. Not being like dependent on alcohol to have a good time. But it was just like, it was pretty much just a straight up party. So imagine just being at just like a college party that everyone is drinking at and you're the only one sober. It's a little bit more difficult. Not, not saying that it's like, justified.

[C]

But yeah, like, it's like the saying goes, it's change happens when changing is easier than staying the same. Which is, like, the truth, at least for, like, I think, like, my situation and maybe. Maybe even Mike's. So then it makes it easy, you know, you're like, well, this is way better than continue doing whatever was going on, so.

[A]

And you feel better?

[C]

Yeah, I feel better. Not. I mean, not 100%, but definitely notice something.

[A]

You notice a change moving in the right direction and spending. Doesn't drink much because of your health, too, right? Yeah.

[D]

Kind of an athlete.

[B]

Well, yeah, I do. Drinking.

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

It is fun. I feel, like, the hardest part.

[C]

So fun.

[B]

I feel like it's. The hardest part is when you're with the boys and they, like, they all know you'll have once. And they're like, I'll have a drink. But if they know, like, nobody goes up to CJ and is like, yo, cj, have a Tony. Like, crack a Tony. Because they know he's, like, not drinking it now. And that's what makes it the easiest for me, is, like, all my buddies know that I don't really drink that much. So when we go out, like, they won't buy. Like, if they're buying shots, they'll never order me one because they know I don't. They just know I'm not going to take it. And that's what makes it the easiest is, like, once you go sober for, like, a couple of weeks, and the boys will know that you're serious, and then they'll, like, back it up kind of, too. Even though they'll, like, give you shit. And they'd be like, dude, you could have a beer tonight. But then they, like, will definitely back you up.

[C]

When we were in Nashville, so we had all of our girlfriends there, and my girlfriend's friend lives in Nashville with her fiance or boyfriend or something, or husband. I don't know. And we were, like, sitting there at this bar and, like, just chilling and, like, it just got, like, quiet. And the dude just, like, turns and looks at me, a super nice guy, but he. I remember this. He just goes, I'm sorry, do you not drink? I was like, what?

[E]

It's so weird. Like.

[C]

Like, if you.

[E]

For, like, different types of drugs and stuff like that, people are like, oh, yeah, no, that's. That's cool. But something about drinking, man. Everyone's like, no, you gotta do it with me.

[F]

Yeah.

[B]

It's like a good. It's honestly a bonding thing.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

I think, like, when you're like, there's. It is pretty. It's fun to have, like, beers with the boys. And, like, if one guy's not drinking, it's just like, a different vibe. But if all the boys are drinking, then it's like, kind of.

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

It changes the vibe. Yeah, it does.

[D]

Yeah. Like, you. If you're, you know, arm around each other, you.

[A]

Love you, man.

[D]

Both on that level.

[E]

It's kind of like.

[B]

Yeah, the silver one's like, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[C]

You definitely are, like, having more of, like, a. Like, a bonding moment. And then if you're sitting here sober, you're, like, looking like, holy. Nothing is happening right now. This is the worst thing I'm watching, you know? Like, it's just. It's insane when you're, like, sober and.

[E]

No.

[A]

Huge fish. It's huge, huge fish.

[F]

I could see it on the mark, and I was like, oh, that might not be bad. And then your rod bent over.

[A]

Sorry.

[C]

What?

[F]

I'm just.

[C]

I'm just drinking.

[F]

I was just thinking earlier, I was like, how funny it would be. Like, we're talking about the deepest, like, emotional thing.

[B]

I love how we, like, are all sitting back and as soon as somebody hooks, everybody's just like.

[C]

Just to be clear, though, I don't. I. I don't care if other people drink. I think it's awesome.

[E]

Them.

[D]

No, me neither.

[B]

Yeah, I don't care.

[C]

But it is.

[B]

There is something about, like, drinking with the boys. It's just, like, such a bonding.

[C]

So fun, dude.

[B]

It is. It actually is.

[C]

I think the last time I drank, actually was with you and Ben. It was us three just tearing it up, dude.

[A]

And we. Yeah. So sick.

[B]

Like. Yeah, that was. That was lit. That was one of my first times drinking in, like, months, I think. Yeah.

[C]

But I. I'll. I will drink again.

[A]

How'd you end up getting all piled up two nights ago? Oh, man, the little gremlin.

[B]

Yeah, the gremlin wasn't even trying to get me to drink it. I think it was Ken.

[A]

Really?

[D]

What happened?

[B]

I had my first day on the job, and he was all fired up, so he took me out and bought.

[C]

Me a shot and packaged some orders and. Yeah, it's like, I do this with everyone.

[H]

I gave him two shots, and he was just out of it.

[C]

Dude.

[A]

I actually hammered.

[G]

I swear, by the time that. By the time that shot hit your throat, you were hammered.

[B]

No, I'm not even lying so fast. It was huge. And I was actually hammered.

[F]

It wasn't.

[G]

It was a triple. It was like a triple shot.

[C]

You don't drink much, and you're. You're Kind of a skinnier guy. I'm sure.

[B]

I am a smaller. Yeah, I don't drink a lot, and I'm small guy.

[A]

Little fella.

[B]

Little guy.

[H]

One shot of rumpies and a shot of yag. And you were.

[B]

I was hammered.

[C]

So you're saying that you think Ken's a worse influence on you than Evan?

[D]

Just that night.

[B]

Just that night.

[C]

But, no, it's a bold statement.

[H]

Evan ordered the shot. I paid for it.

[C]

There you go, Ken.

[D]

Teamwork.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Combo. But it was actually fun, though. It was. It was pretty lit. Like, I wasn't mad.

[C]

And they.

[B]

They were nice about it, too. They're like, hey, if we buy you shot, will you take it? And I was just like, yeah, but, like, I didn't think they were actually gonna do it. And then they're like, five shots showed up, and I actually had to take it.

[A]

That's the thing.

[G]

Spinning mean, you come around and you're like, not drinking. Like, we'll respect it. Then you. You drop a couple hints at me that you're like, yeah, I want to get hammered tonight, man. Like, come on, let's get.

[A]

Let's get a little juiced up.

[C]

I like your voice there. That's pretty close.

[D]

Yeah.

[G]

You spend enough time with this guy.

[F]

You'Ll start kind of talking like it.

[C]

Dalton talks like you. Well, after you were here this summer and you left, I swear, Dalton was talking just like you.

[G]

It was like, two months. It was two months.

[C]

Two months.

[A]

Still talking.

[C]

Yeah, he's pulled back. I think he just wants to be you, but, like, you. But. Well, to be fair.

[G]

To be fair, Spinning is a pretty.

[F]

Cool guy, so I respect that.

[C]

Might be one of the coolest. Like most chill dudes, I think you.

[A]

Got to back it up with. With the skills on a dirt bike talking the way Spenny does.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

He's got the lives of lifestyle.

[A]

He's got the mix of a Canadian, Californian.

[C]

Yeah, it is.

[G]

It is that perfect.

[A]

It's a crazy combo.

[C]

I'd say more. I'd say more, oh, I love California than anything, but I'm just never seen.

[B]

Anything like it, dude. Actually, you know what's hilarious? I do go back to Canada, and I hear, like, people talk, and I'm like, canadians sound so ridiculous, like, insane.

[C]

Oh, how do they sound?

[B]

Well, they're just like. Like, I'll go to the bars with my buddies, and they're like, ace, Benny, come over here, buddy. Like, let's take a shot, eh? And I'm like. I was like, I hope I didn't used to sound like that because it's so bad. Honestly, like, now I get the south park memes because. And I never got it before because I lived there, so I just heard it all the time. Like, it was just. Yeah, it was just normal. But even now, like, I'll hear my mom or my dad say something, and they're like. They're like, what are you talking about? And I'm like, what the heck? Like, that's not right.

[E]

Then when you go back to Cali, do you feel like the Cali guys sound weird?

[B]

Yeah, they do. Honestly, like, pretty much everywhere you go. Like, you. Like, even you guys have, like, your own little, like, lingo and, like, little key, secret words and stuff, and you have to, like, learn them and stuff. I don't know. It's kind of funny. Well, should we shotgun a Tony or what?

[G]

Spinny's looking to get hammered tonight.

[A]

CJ's like, Yup.

[C]

I just break it.

[F]

We got any more of those modelas.

[C]

Out there that are rip spinning? Let's see it.

[B]

I'll rip a shot ever. That would be a cold.

[D]

It's possible, but it's here.

[C]

Let me see one. Let me see one. Tony.

[G]

The beautiful thing about keeping keeping your beverages in the hole like that, like, that's gonna stay not frozen. The ones you put outside are gonna freeze.

[C]

Hey, Mike.

[F]

What's so funny over there?

[C]

Benny? You want Tony?

[D]

Mike, why'd you ask me two times?

[C]

That was a test. Good job. You passed.

[D]

I passed? If that was a test. I passed a lot of tests, Mike.

[C]

You want another? Tony? No.

[A]

Is Jake.

[G]

I know he wants one. No, Jake bailed. He says he's still packing orders.

[C]

That's a test. Good job, Mike. You passed. This guy's rock solid.

[D]

Dude, I'm except I can't freaking catch any fish.

[B]

You'll know the time will come when you need to have a drink, and you'll be like, this is the time.

[C]

And it'll.

[D]

You'll feel it.

[B]

You'll feel it. You'll definitely feel it.

[D]

Yeah, I do agree with that.

[B]

I'd say right now would be a good time to feel it, though.

[D]

Oh, you're funny.

[A]

You guys are just so funny. Like, these are two fictional characters.

[C]

We have money. Mike and Spenny.

[E]

Mike's boots gotta get in this.

[C]

Yeah, no kidding. That is literally all Ken's collection. So, Ken, how much those boots cost? Just out of curiosity?

[H]

I actually got them on Stockx after the hype died down, so they're 150.

[C]

Oh, wow.

[A]

Not bad.

[C]

What was up with the hype? Like, was it a meme, or did people actually think they were cool?

[H]

They just look ridiculous. So it just.

[C]

Bro, I saw someone in the airport wearing them not too long ago, and I literally looked at the guy, and I was like. I was trying to figure out if he's trying to be funny or not, and I don't think he was like, he wore that shit in the airport. Why would you wear them in the airport? Imagine hopping on the plane, just clomping around.

[D]

Dude, they're so uncomfortable.

[C]

Don't even.

[H]

I wouldn't wear those in public. For one, just because they're so ungodly uncomfortable comfortable. And two, you just look ridiculous and attract so much attention.

[D]

Dude, driving over here was a bad idea. I mean.

[H]

Oh, you can't. You cannot feel any kind of pedals.

[D]

And gas at the exact same.

[A]

That's kind of concerning. Mike. I rode with you.

[D]

I've heard so many times. Like, when I broke my right foot, I, like, drove with my left foot.

[B]

Because, like, you just.

[D]

What, are you just not gonna drive? And then I found out, like, a lot of people do that. I know there's different circumstances.

[A]

Illegal, isn't it?

[D]

I don't really think it would hold up if they did try to get. Get you on it. But, like, so many people hurt their right foot, and they're like, yeah, it's been so inconvenient not be able to get around. I'm like, really? You can at least try. And then there was a situation where, oh, well, she has a baby. She drives a baby around. Okay, I get it. Then don't drive. I wouldn't trust myself with my left foot with a baby in the car, but with just myself. Like, it's super easy. You can just practice it for fun.

[E]

Do you guys like holding babies?

[A]

No, I don't hold my nieces and nephews until. Until they are old enough to take a fall.

[D]

That's something. Super smart.

[B]

I actually don't even think I've held, like, a newborn baby before.

[A]

Like, I'm missing anything.

[B]

I don't think I've ever held one ever in my life.

[C]

See where Ben stands? I don't know. I kind of like it, but I haven't held. Held that many.

[B]

But I like.

[A]

What do you like about anything?

[C]

I don't know. It's just, like. It's just a weird thing to.

[B]

What's it feel like?

[C]

It's like. It's like you're very. You got to be, like, you know, dialed in Like I, I sit down, like, make sure.

[B]

I'm like, can't have a couple Tonys, right?

[C]

Like, I don't want to like something to happen.

[B]

Yeah, that's. I would, I would be scared. I'd be too.

[C]

So you just make sure you're in a good spot. But yeah, it's crazy.

[D]

It's just super weird to say. And then I thought about how like babies heads smell good or like they like smell.

[F]

You.

[A]

I don't know, you might be on a walk list.

[D]

It's like, oh, dude, I sound like Joe Byron. Like. Yeah, no, babies are just like the cutest, dude.

[C]

It's have a smell to them though.

[A]

Funny.

[C]

Like a new smell.

[B]

Yeah, smell like milk.

[C]

Justin, keep the kid away from the guys.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, I know.

[C]

Baby's head, he's like, don't.

[D]

I don't need to hold it.

[C]

I just want to smell him.

[A]

Yeah, no, I don't know. I'm not a big baby holder. I also don't think babies are that cute, dude. I think when people are like, your baby is so adorable, I'm like, we're all looking at the same baby then, huh?

[B]

I'm the same.

[A]

I shouldn't say never, but most time babies aren't that cute and parents just hype up their kid. Like, you don't know how cute your kid is.

[E]

I can't wait for you to hype up your kids so hard.

[A]

No, it's different when it's your kid. It's different when it's your kid.

[F]

Yo, parents be hyping up their kids way too much.

[C]

No, I don't know.

[A]

I have like, I've like four nieces and nephews and like, I think I've been.

[F]

They're all mid, bro.

[A]

No, they get to a point where they're like super cute at like 211 1. You start seeing their potential. No dead ass.

[C]

Like just disregarding one of them, he's like, yeah, not that cool.

[D]

This one's got not. Not much going for it.

[A]

No, I don't know, it's just babies are just all the same.

[B]

They all look the same to me.

[A]

Yeah, they, they do. They look the same. And like, I don't know, I guess some are like a little bit cuter than others, but it's just like, dude, yeah, you gotta act like, oh my God, your child is so adorable. Can I hold it? Dude, I'm not even.

[C]

And then, I'm not even gonna lie.

[F]

Justin force you to hold my kid all the time.

[A]

Dude, I am not gonna. I'm not gonna hold your kid, but.

[D]

Unless you're like, close to the baby, it's usually more polite not to ask to hold. Oh, yeah, Just like saying, like, holding babies sometimes don't ask to hold the baby unless you're like, yeah, I'm not sure.

[E]

I'm just trying that out.

[D]

Yeah.

[F]

Yeah, I think that's a little bit.

[A]

CJ's gonna like, wet wipe that baby down from germs and too.

[C]

No, I won't.

[A]

Yeah. You will be such a helicopter kid or parent. Yeah, I don't know. I just don't really trust myself of like, holding the baby too, because I'm. I'm like, what if I had a heart attack right now and fell over? Like, I don't know.

[D]

Or would that be.

[A]

Who else know? It's a baby's fault.

[C]

Wakes up in the hospital, what the hell?

[E]

The thing gave me a heart attack.

[A]

No, I don't know. She could happen, though.

[C]

It does come with a lot of responsibility, though, holding one of those things.

[A]

I think about that too with like, my future wife, mother of my children driving. Like, is that safe?

[C]

These are things you cannot, like, women driving.

[A]

Man.

[C]

He's really digging himself a hole here. He is really digging himself a hole. Let's say one more thing.

[A]

I'm just saying, like, dude, car accidents can happen.

[B]

It's the craziest thing.

[F]

You're like, do girls really even need to vote?

[C]

Like.

[A]

No, I don't. It's not. It's literally. It's nothing against Greta either. Like, it's just.

[E]

It's just all of them.

[A]

It's not even.

[C]

I. I hate to say it, but just off of your driving record, the baby's probably safer. Dude, I think you should be in the back seat.

[A]

I can't even ride in the front seat.

[C]

Just stay in the back. I can't even ride in the distracting front.

[A]

Oh, you probably. Honestly, you're not wrong. You're not wrong.

[F]

Newborn, newborn kids. I understand thinking that they're not cute. They are like little strange looking aliens for like the first couple, three months.

[A]

Like, probably six.

[F]

Yeah, I guess I'll find out here.

[E]

As a future father.

[F]

Yeah, but like, you just. It's such a connection that you're gonna have with your kid that as a parent, you're just gonna be like, yes, this is the most precious thing on the planet. And they certainly look a little bit goofy, but it's just, it means so much to you that that's why.

[A]

Right. It means more to you. I know. I keep hearing that too. I've heard that so many times. And, like, I was walking through the merch bay talking to a couple of the merch fillers, and found out that one just had a kid a month and a half ago. And I was like, oh, damn, dude. I'm sorry I didn't, like, do something for you. Like, just finding this out now. You can't feel like an asshole. Like, you know.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

He's been working for us for several months, and I didn't, like, congratulate him because, you know, he's probably, like, walks in, like, you know, expecting somebody to say congrats. Yeah. It's a huge. You knew.

[C]

Yeah, I knew Damien and Darius had it. Yeah.

[A]

Yeah. I might have been the only one.

[C]

I mean, I knew when they.

[A]

Because I knew this dude. I didn't know this guy just hates kids.

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

The day it happened.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Did he tell you?

[C]

Yeah.

[F]

You know, I'm gonna be a dad.

[A]

I heard.

[E]

Yeah, bro, you were born to be a dad. Justin. Justin, you came out the womb ready.

[F]

To be a dad. I'm pretty sure my first words were a dad joke, unfortunately, and it was probably really bad.

[C]

You ever seen National Lampoons? Yeah, I swear, you're the guy. You're the main guy. Like, that's you Clark Griswold. Yeah, I think you're Clark Griswold. Like, your sense of humor and the way you navigate. Like, when I've watched all of the National Lampoons just recently, and I just am thinking of you the whole time. I'm like, dude, this is Justin.

[F]

The scene at the opening of, like, when they're picking up the Christmas tree, like, the quiet road rage like that. Where, like, I have to, like. Yeah, like, I'm, like, looking over. I'm smiling at my wife, like, oh, yeah, it's fine. Like, just constantly being pissed, pulling underneath a semi. Like, haven't done that. But my. Unironically. I used to be able to recite, like, most of that movie.

[C]

Like, you seen all of them?

[E]

I don't know.

[F]

The first two, I haven't seen, like, all of them.

[C]

You can.

[E]

Vegas one's the best.

[C]

Yeah. That's a legendary. I don't even know if you do you call it a series.

[F]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah, dude.

[C]

And like, those are older movies, but they still hold up today. That's how you know they're good. Because normally, like, older, like 1980s, obviously. Even later. Even the 90s like the picture and just quality. It's so not up to standard now. Or it's hard to watch yeah, it's.

[F]

Crazy how like you watch an older movie, like anything that's from the 80s, it just looks grainy and like back.

[C]

Then a lot of times that was.

[F]

Like, that was just like Cream of the crop, like crazy definition. Now you got like 4k on a phone screen.

[E]

I was working in Justin's office. I don't know, I like working in Justin's office. It's like bigger and there's a person there to talk to. So anyway, I go in there and I was working and Justin had a call with a bunch of. You already know, with a bunch of, to use a derogatory term, nerds. But what they were doing is they, they have like a. You know what, why don't you explain what they do instead of me?

[F]

So they quickly. A light to pick system. So it's when somebody scans an order in our warehouse, a light will shut light up on the warehouse location so they can find it a lot faster.

[E]

So anyway, a bunch of nerds created it. And then I think they're normally used to talking to people probably like us or they, they weren't expecting another nerd on the end of the line. And bro, they were just absolutely kissing each other through the phone. They're like, oh my gosh, you answered my next question. Oh, nobody asked us questions. You are my favorite person to talk to.

[F]

No, every single thing that he just said is 100% true. These dudes were so stoked.

[C]

And I was like uncomfortable talking about.

[E]

The one guy who was like the sales guy literally just moved out of the meeting. Like he started it and he's normally like, all right, we're going to work through. We're going to take the complicated speak and we're going to get it to somebody who can understand it, like who, who just needs to buy it. And he just got completely bypassed. And Justin just talked with them the whole time and they were like, oh my gosh, we never thought about that. This is perfect. You're perfect. You are the best customer. And it was, it was so funny. I'm like, man, dude, revved up. Yeah, well, yeah, yeah.

[F]

Just two 65 year old dudes on the phone gassing me up because I'm asking nice questions. I was like, oh, cool. Yeah, you know, they.

[E]

Have you ever heard of Eurodidium magnets? Eurodidium magnets. Let me tell you about them.

[F]

Neodymium, by the way. But yeah, it was close. Yeah, they were. That was the whole time I was on that call. I just like kept looking over the top of my Screen and looking at Ryan, he's just like, jesus Christ.

[E]

Kind of smiling.

[F]

Ryan was not impressed.

[A]

Does it kind of feel good to flex your big toe like that when you're because you're used to dealing with pretty low level iq?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Low level IQ stuff on the daily.

[C]

On the same level.

[F]

I won't lie. It was refreshing to talk about engineering shit again.

[A]

Yeah, just get it out.

[F]

It's definitely more fun to do what I do now because I can talk engineering for three hours. And then after that it just gets a little dry.

[D]

So I'm just glad that you weren't. You weren't around when we took the IQ test.

[C]

Dude, Justin would have probably scored last with the way the trajectory looks like.

[A]

That IQ test was.

[F]

I'm pretty sure, like, I took it after you guys did the, like, did it on the pod. I scored like middle low of everybody's scores.

[E]

Evan was top.

[C]

No, it's Mike. Mike was the smartest.

[E]

Evan.

[A]

Evan was up top. Evan.

[E]

Evan came in and then you guys. Yeah, he took it afterwards. After consuming a recreational product and a couple Tonys, he sits down at the computer. Never seen Evan at a computer.

[D]

Never typed on a dang keyboard ever.

[C]

Yeah.

[E]

Does he know?

[C]

I don't know. I've never seen him on a computer.

[D]

I love that someone the other day goes, evan, when's the last time you used a computer? And he's like, oh, it was just.

[F]

I.

[C]

Like whenever I was in high school.

[D]

School.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

And we're like, oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We had to use computers at that place.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

You guys re evaluated like your entire life. And then you're like, eh, probably just the test probably wasn't.

[F]

That's also such a funny way. Everybody takes an IQ test. It's all low. And everyone's like, nah, man, I'm not dumb. It's gotta be the test.

[D]

Yeah, it was fun while it lasted. I mean, there's just no possible way that. Again, it was just off one test. There's just no way.

[A]

Evan and I wasn't Ryan at the bottom.

[C]

Yeah, Ryan was dead bottom.

[E]

No, I don't think I was dead.

[A]

You were because it was your idea to do it. And then you took.

[C]

I think we were all thinking like, oh, Ryan's gonna take first.

[D]

You ever take it one spenny?

[B]

No, I've never taken one Spanish.

[C]

You graduate high school?

[B]

Yeah, I graduated. Hey, no offense.

[C]

There's nothing wrong.

[B]

Do I seem dumb?

[C]

No, I just.

[B]

You're like.

[C]

You're a professional motocross racer.

[B]

Just the Way I talk.

[C]

I couldn't remember. I remember you telling me something his brother didn't.

[B]

My brother didn't.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Okay. Well, he did something along the lines of like. Yeah, I was racing and I was gone. So like. And it's pretty common to not give your professional motocross race. You probably got better things going on than finishing high school.

[D]

I was racing.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I don't know. No, I, I, My parents were like, they didn't even really. They wanted me to go to like post secondary too. They were actually mad that I didn't, didn't go. And I went and raced and did like dumb stuff. Well, I mean it wasn't really dumb, but they were mad I didn't go to school. They were pushing school on me. Pretty.

[A]

Because they had another shipment of zins that they wanted you to push. Remember that?

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

No, no, not the zins. It was the chew. It was the chew. The flavored chew.

[A]

Yeah. You ever hear that, Justin?

[B]

We already talked about it once, but I basically, for sure. I was coming into the US to race and they banned flavored tobacco in Canada. So my parents were buying chew for me and I was taking it back and selling it to my buddies.

[C]

Drug mule.

[B]

It was just, it was just like.

[C]

Co back flip it, you know, out.

[B]

Of the locker, nothing crazy.

[A]

Yeah. So they had bigger shipments coming in and they planned that Spenny was gonna go to college.

[B]

They were like, you need to stay in school. We got big shipments coming in. We gotta pick up a pallet next time we're down. No, yeah, I, I did finish grade 12. Honestly, like I wasn't the smartest kid, but I never skip.

[A]

Skipped.

[B]

But school is hard for me. Honestly, I sucked at school. Like I'm not very smart. But in the classes I was taking, I. Oh, I struggled, but I, I never skipped. I did all my homework. I never like faked sick or like skipped school ever. I always went and I was.

[C]

Because you're only going two days a week for racing.

[B]

Yeah, that's true. No, actually I hated, I hated to leave to go to races because then I'd get behind.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

The best I could learn. Like I'm such a hands on learner. Like I can't, like I'm not very good with instructions. I just want to hands on learn. So being in the classroom for me was like, like I liked it.

[C]

And I wasn't saying it because I thought you were dumb or anything like that. I think you're smart, but I just thought you literally become smart. Yeah, I think you're smart. I don't think you're. I don't think you're dumb at all.

[A]

Ask him a question.

[B]

Ask me a question then.

[C]

I don't need to. I don't need to. Ask me a question.

[E]

That I was a pro. Answer right there, bro.

[C]

I don't need to spend time.

[D]

What is the name of this shape that's all over the. The fish house? It's got a name.

[B]

Six sided hexagon.

[D]

No.

[A]

Yep.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Pentagon is fine because it was a pretty easy one.

[C]

I thought you were talking about the triangle.

[B]

I had to. I did have to. Looking and, like, actually count them. I couldn't tell how many it was.

[E]

Hey, what's. What's the strongest shape?

[B]

Triangle.

[E]

Nice.

[A]

Who did? Nine. Eleven.

[E]

From a Canadian.

[B]

We don't have that in Canada.

[A]

No, no, I'm kidding.

[C]

Oh, okay. I was like, wow, that's crazy. American flag suit. And he doesn't even know what 911 was. Imagine.

[E]

We don't have that in Canada.

[C]

We don't have that.

[B]

I love OCG's. Like, oh, you don't?

[F]

Even the terrorists are nicer in Canada.

[D]

What's the fastest animal in the world?

[E]

Cheetah, Ken. On the way to the battle.

[B]

Cheetah. Cheetah. Is it a cheetah?

[F]

Fastest animal? Yeah, yeah, it's not a cheetah.

[D]

Yeah, I thought it was something.

[B]

Ostrich.

[D]

Thinks it's a cheetah.

[B]

Is it an ostrich?

[F]

No, no, it is a bird, though.

[A]

Canadian goose.

[C]

But it's one of those, like, hawks type of things that.

[F]

Yeah.

[C]

What are they called again? Falcon.

[F]

Yeah, it's a peregrine falcon.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. Like 112 or something.

[C]

Dude, you can't determine.

[A]

I'm talking about a landman.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, I wasn't. I wasn't even thinking about that.

[C]

Listen.

[F]

Well, we didn't say landman, mammal. We said animal.

[C]

You can't determine how smart someone is by what they know. That's not a good judge of, like, how smart someone just naturally is. It's just like, you know what I'm saying? Because then, like, knowing information doesn't make you smart.

[A]

What do you think, like, is the biggest deterrent if they're smart? If they can pan.

[B]

You know how, like.

[D]

Trivia, A trivia crackhead instead of like a trivia head.

[C]

They just know information. It's no facts.

[D]

They're trivia crackhead.

[C]

But like, I don't know. There's. There's so many different ways you could determine if someone's smart.

[B]

Though I'm not very book smart, but I definitely have. I feel like I got, like, some knowledge, though.

[C]

That's just like. Yeah, that's just information. It doesn't mean that you're not smart.

[B]

No, I know. I feel like I have more, like, street smart than I would, like, just, like, street.

[C]

I would say that's the best way to, like, determine something Lopez, like, inherent.

[A]

Yeah, it's like, how many Tai Lopez's courses have you.

[C]

Knowledge? Guy's still around, too. He's got some big mansion that he rents. He makes this course and explains that, like, I don't own this because it's smart to not own this.

[F]

Gaslighting.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I don't know. And then, like, I. I see YouTube videos of people, like, talking on it.

[B]

Like, why.

[A]

When I was at the wedding, I was talking, like, everyone there was like, like, weirdly rich, I'd imagine. And I was talking to this one guy, and I shit you not. He flexed on me for 45 minutes straight about just everything that you could flex on somebody.

[C]

Annoying, dude.

[A]

It was so annoying. It was so annoying. But he was, like, showing me how. Or he was telling me how much money in doge he had, which I thought was a crazy flex.

[B]

That is a crazy. It's the worst when they, like, pull up that. The wallet, too, and they're like, no, no.

[A]

So he was telling me he could kind of tell I, like, wasn't really that interested or didn't care that much. And then he was like, how do I get him hooked? I'll show him. And then he was like, check it out. I'll show. I'll just show you the wallet. And I was like. I was like, all right, let's see it. And then it wouldn't load because you were in Mexico. I don't know, man. It doesn't seem like you got. And it wasn't loading, wasn't loading. You can see he was, like, kind of panicking, like, refreshing it.

[C]

You don't got a lot.

[E]

How much dose did he have, though?

[A]

He was like, yeah, I got, like, 1.8 million in DOGE Dollars. Dollars.

[E]

Dollars.

[C]

How the.

[D]

Why?

[A]

And then it refreshed, and there was, like, 800,000 in it. And he was like, I have the other million. And. And I can't remember what he said. It was like another, like. It was like another, like, kind of funny crypto to move it into or something like that.

[C]

Sheba or whatever.

[A]

Yeah, I don't. I don't know what it was, but I was like, yeah, dude, I believe you. You're rich, dude.

[C]

Everything. As far as stocks, crypto have been fucking through the roof in the last, basically last month. It's been insane.

[A]

Good time for crypto. Good times.

[C]

Market is a good time to be in crypto.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Why do you think that is? Just because people have faith. Well, Trump, with the new Trump, Trump president coming in for the.

[A]

For crypto, I think it's like, well, yeah, 90%. Yeah.

[C]

Because he had said that, you know, we're trying to make America the crypto capital of the world, and he wants to, like, get rid of the SEC regulations and all that.

[A]

Yeah. And like the. All the regulations in China and Russia and like, other, like, big dogs is kind of loosening. And, like, you have, like, huge companies like BlackRock putting like a trillion dollars in or some wild dude if you into it. So it's like, there's so many different factors, but, like, you know how south things would have to go for, like, bitcoin to, like, completely lose all of its capital.

[C]

I mean, if it went down, then you'd buy more. That'd be the only thing. But, like, realistically, like, if you just put some money there and you're not planning on touching it for like, 10 years, it's a great spot.

[A]

I think that it's more of a risk to not own bitcoin, personally. I think, like, everyone should buy a little bit because on the off chance that it goes to, like, an insane number and maybe it replaces our currency one day, who knows? Everything else. Everything else is going electric or electronic. So why.

[C]

Why would.

[A]

Or digital electronic money put a little bit into it.

[D]

At least me not owning any. I agree, bro.

[C]

Money might.

[B]

Dude, I don't.

[C]

I don't even realize, like, he's like, yeah, I got my bitcoin shows up. He's like, yeah, check it out. I got like, four of them. It's like a pocket full of coins.

[D]

Like, bro, the only bitcoin I know is, like, when Patrick was trying to buy something from spongebob, but he didn't have a quarter, so then spongebob gave him a quarter and they took it back and then bid it to make sure it was real. That's bitcoin.

[A]

That's bite coin.

[C]

Oh.

[B]

But, yeah, no, I. Dude, I just.

[D]

Logged into my, like, Coinbase account the other day for the first time in, like, five years, and my Ethereum doubled and I was like, huh, nice. That's about as far as it went.

[A]

Would you buy in it?

[D]

I don't know. 2000? Is that right?

[A]

Yeah, yeah, it's at four right now.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, I think we're. I think we're good. That was our first ever ice fishing podcast. We might stay here and see if we can catch some more fish. But thank you guys for tuning in. Subscribe if you have not already. And Spenny. Justin, Gav.
