A member of the show.
Lunchbox
Good morning, everybody. Happy SP Saturday. Lunchbox is joining me. Go ahead, let us have it, man.
Morgan
This can. You couldn't have picked a worst Saturday for me to come up here. Coaches Convention 4 for the sore losers podcast is going on right now. I got places to be. Up late. Last night we had open bar happy hour at Chiefs. The party bus. I mean, Nashville Tractor provided a party bus for us for two hours. I'm tired, but I'm here. I'm here.
Lunchbox
You are. You're doing it for the people. Yeah, we're going to vip.
Morgan
Yeah. We're going to Chiefs later today and we're going to do a live podcast and a watch party for the NFL. Tomorrow we'll be at category 10 Luke Combs bar. I mean, I don't know, man. It's just busy, busy, busy.
Lunchbox
Your body keep up with this now, you know, because you're kind of like a little old man now.
Morgan
I don't think I'm a little old man. I'm not a little old man. You know what I'm saying? But, yeah, we're doing everything.
Lunchbox
Are you struggling, though, or are you sitting here hoping that it's over sooner rather than later?
Morgan
No, doing great right now because it's only been one night. I got. I still got to go tonight to the Preds game. It's Keith Urban night tonight.
Lunchbox
Nice. So he's going to be there?
Morgan
I don't know, but I think it's his bobblehead night, so I'm in my gut. I'm guessing he's going to be there, but I don't know.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I think it's early enough into the year, too, that he probably is. I don't think he's out touring or anything yet.
Morgan
That's why I was hoping, you know, Keith Urban's going to. I. My envision for Keith Urban Knight is him singing. Oh, say, can you sing the national anthem or the.
Lunchbox
Is that. Is that the same?
Morgan
That's what that is.
Lunchbox
Yes. Okay. Well, there's like two different songs, and now I'm like, Spangled Banner was the other one I was thinking of.
Morgan
That's the national anthem.
Lunchbox
Are they the same thing?
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
My brain's not functioning.
Morgan
I know, I know. I mean, you went to Kansas State.
Martin Luther King III
No.
Lunchbox
Are they. Are they.
Morgan
Are you serious?
Lunchbox
Pledge of allegiance. That's Totally separate, but Star Spangled Banner and the National Anthem. So the Star Spangled Banner is the national anthem.
Morgan
Correct.
Lunchbox
Okay. Thank you.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah, I. Yeah, yeah. It's just easier to say national anthem than Star Spangled Banner.
Lunchbox
That's just also weird that something has two official names, you know?
Morgan
That's true.
Lunchbox
So that's what's throwing me off.
Morgan
Yeah. And then tomorrow we got the Escape game. You ever done that?
Lunchbox
The Escape Game? I don't. I. No, I actually haven't. I've wanted to go do one of those. Yeah, I had, like, the correct group of people to try it with.
Morgan
Well, I don't know if these are the correct group of people. The Sore Losers Nation. They're a bunch of idiots, but in a good way. And so it's. There's like seven people on my team and seven people on Ray's team, and we're going into the exact same room, just different look, you know, like, one room's on the right, one room's on the left. And it's a. It's a bet on who can get out the fastest.
Lunchbox
And I'm betting you think you can get out the fastest.
Morgan
I'm. Of course I'm thinking that. I don't think Ray is going to be able to get out.
Lunchbox
You don't think he's going to be able to get out at all? That's sad for Ray.
Morgan
Yeah, I think he's going to be stuck in. I don't know who's going to be on his team, so maybe they're smart.
Lunchbox
Are you guys going to draft teams? Like, I pick you, I pick you. Kind of like old school, high school.
Morgan
Oh, that's a good idea. I didn't even think about that because I'm like, what if a couple bought tickets and it's the couple there. Do I break the couple up?
Lunchbox
I mean, if you do it old school, you can do whatever you want.
Morgan
Yeah, that's a good point. I'll think about that. Like, if Ray gets the first pick, I get the next two picks.
Lunchbox
Oh, well, normally, just in, like, dodgeball days, it was like, you go, I go. You go, I go.
Morgan
Yeah, but see, that means you would get the first and the third best person, quote unquote.
Lunchbox
If you listen, that's the old school way of doing it. That was like back in gym PE days.
Morgan
I know. But nowadays, like, when you do a fantasy football draft, you do, like, Whoever has the 10th pick, if there's only 10 people in your league, they also get the 11th pick. So you Go in reverse order the next way on the way back, because that way they don't get just stuck going boom, boom, boom.
Lunchbox
I mean, yeah, it's definitely a more fair way of doing it. Definitely how we did it in P wasn't fair.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And then it was fun.
Morgan
Yeah. And then right after I do this, like, right after I leave here, I got to go to bad ax throwing. We're having brunch and throwing some axes.
Lunchbox
Dang, you guys really jam packed the weekend.
Morgan
Oh, yeah, dude. The convention, it's just nonstop. It's exhausting. And here's the hard part is when it's all said and done, I have to go home where I have kids. And so, like, they wake me up at 6 in the morning, dad, dad, I'm awake and I'm like, I just got home.
Lunchbox
So you don't throw on some pinch hitters for the weekend?
Morgan
No, no pinch hitters. No. Like, when we did the convention in Vegas, my in laws would come and watch the kids, but since we're here, no.
Lunchbox
So it's just you and your wife?
Morgan
Me and the wife.
Lunchbox
But doesn't your wife also help with sore losers convention?
Morgan
Yeah, she does. So it makes it tricky. You know what I mean? Like, last night, I had the kids, and then I drove them down to Broadway, and they were in the car, and my wife came out of Chiefs, got in the car, and I got out and went in Chiefs for the open bar happy hour.
Lunchbox
So she's helping set it up, and then you're coming in and swinging the home run.
Morgan
That's right.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
So, yeah, man, it's a rough weekend. But, yeah, I mean, I'm pretty people, though. I'm pretty excited because I've never done escape game and I've never done bad ax throwing.
Lunchbox
So those are both firsts for you. Bad axe throwing is fun. You guys will have a lot of fun.
Morgan
I think that's gonna be a blast.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Especially eating brunch at the same time. That's. Anything with paired with brunch is always a good time.
Morgan
Anything with brunch. And I mean, brunch is such a cool term. It sounds so sophisticated.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it does kind of sound weird coming out of your mouth. It's kind of like when you said the peanut and McTacos thing.
Morgan
That's not funny. Rest in peace to those.
Lunchbox
I know that place isn't open anymore.
Morgan
Yeah. But I am telling you, brunch was not a thing. Like, I never had that when I was in college and when I was out of College, There was no such thing as brunch. I mean, I think that maybe there was, but it wasn't as popular as it is now.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's definitely a thing now. A trend, a social media situation. Cause when we were in college, it was brunch, as we were kind of on the way out of college. See, when it first started and then definitely when I moved to Nashville. Oh, my gosh. Everybody did.
Morgan
Yeah. Exploded.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
So, okay, well, I'm excited.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
So that's what we do to be fun. And nobody goes to jail.
Morgan
That. That's what we're hoping. It's just. It's tough. And no one's going to go to jail here on a Saturday, dude. I know. On coaches coaches convention weekend, too.
Lunchbox
And your son's basketball game.
Morgan
We're not doing this again.
Lunchbox
Where they can't hear you for five minutes.
Morgan
I got bad ax doing right after this, dude. I got to go on Saturday, dude. All right, dude. See you later, man.
Lunchbox
That was Cuba, in case you couldn't hear him. Last time you guys did that, nobody could hear Scuba, so all they heard was you. Just one sided of the conversation.
Morgan
No, they heard him. They were laughing.
Lunchbox
Barely. Barely.
Morgan
They heard Scuba for sure. He was loud.
Lunchbox
Okay, well, we did just have a snow day situation. What did you do with the fam?
Morgan
Oh, what did we not do with the fam, is the question. I mean, did we live out in the snow? Oh, my. I have to say this. I have never been more proud of my boys than I was on the snow weekend.
Lunchbox
Okay, give it to me. Give me the snow weekend activities.
Morgan
They wouldn't come inside.
Lunchbox
Oh, they loved it. They weren't cold.
Morgan
Oh, they were cold.
Lunchbox
All three of them. Or.
Morgan
Well, the littlest one, Baby box three, he would get a little cold, and he would go inside. The other two, I had to drag him by their jackets to get inside. I mean, it was, like, dark out, and they're the only two outside just going sledding and just snowing and snowing and snowing. I mean, we had an impromptu party on Saturday night, and, I mean, I don't know how many kids were at my house. I have no idea.
Lunchbox
Is it because you have a hill in your backyard or something?
Morgan
No, it's just because here's the deal. We have a couple families in the neighborhood that we hang out with all the time, and they always invite us over to their houses. And one of the moms likes to cook, and so she always cooks dinner for us. Like the kids, everybody.
Lunchbox
Oh, you love That I love it.
Morgan
Great. And we never have people over. Never. And so we had gone sledding at a golf course, because they always got big hills at a golf course. And the two families left early, but we stayed because my kids didn't want to leave. And we just kept sledding and sledding and sledding. Then we get a text from them like, hey, our kids want to kind of go back out in the snow this afternoon. We're like, well, why didn't everybody just come over to our house? And they're like, all right. And so then that turned into, well, if we're inviting them, we should invite the people across the street. So we invited people across the street. Then we're like, well, if we invited them, we should invite, you know, John and Sally around the corner. And since John and Sally live across from, you know, Mark and Mary, we should invite Mark and Mary. So we invited Mark and Mary. And then, oh, if we invited Mark and Mary, we should invite. And so we ended. Invited all these people.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
And so there's kids everywhere.
Lunchbox
Did you cook?
Morgan
No. We ordered pizza. And you can go to listen to Sore Losers podcast from Monday and find out why my kids are never allowed to work at a pizza shop. They're never allowed. We had an incredible run in with the pizza dude.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
Incredible.
Lunchbox
You don't want to share your story?
Morgan
No, I mean, I need someone to go listen to the podcast. I mean, it is so dang. But it's like. It's one of those moments where you're like, is this reality? Am I living in real life right.
Lunchbox
Now and it had to do with pizza dude?
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
Like, you are just like, what planet is this dude on right now? Or am I on a different planet? And I am.
Lunchbox
Was he. Was he from Toy Story, the. The pizza place and Toy Story Pizza Planet?
Morgan
No. I mean, he might have been. He was on a different planet. I do believe in his mind, he was on a different planet. But yeah, so, I mean, we just snowed it up. I mean, the whole time.
Lunchbox
Okay, so they. The boys did sledding. Any snowball fight?
Morgan
Oh, snowball fights. Built a snowman. I mean, we did everything.
Lunchbox
Did you guys make some snow ice cream?
Morgan
Didn't know how to do that, but we did make snow cones.
Lunchbox
Okay, Snow ice cream is another fun one.
Morgan
That is what the neighbor across the street, his mom and dad live close by, and they were over there. 1. I don't even know what night it was. And they were asking me, did you make snow ice cream? That's good. You gotta get. And I'm like, I don't know what that. I've never. Living from Texas. You don't know what that is. But we did make snow cones out of snow off the ground. We picked it up, put it in cups and iced up real quick, poured the syrup on there and we ate that sucker.
Lunchbox
You had syrup or did you go out and get.
Morgan
Oh, no, we had syrup. We got a. We make snow cones.
Lunchbox
Really? Like that's a common.
Morgan
Well, no, my granny and grandpa gave us a snow cone making machine a couple years ago that we have in the. That you can make little snow cones. It's a little. It's like.
Lunchbox
I was like, how do you just randomly have the syrup for a snow cone?
Morgan
And so then. And then it was great. We did all that. And the party was bananas. It was awesome. But then one of the neighbors that we always go over to, they were like. He was like, I can't believe no one wanted to come to my house because his. His backyard is straight, like on a hill. Like it's downhill. And he was like, no one wanted to come sled at our house. I can't believe it. And I'm like, well, why don't we come over in the morning? He was like, I'll see if it's going to be good. So he went out on Saturday night when he got home from the party and he packed it down and he made two tracks, two sled tracks.
Lunchbox
That's amazing.
Morgan
And so that way we were there Sunday morning at 8:30 in the morning sledding. And my boys, the other kids, lost interest after about an hour. My kids sledded for two and a half hours.
Lunchbox
Was he like, okay, get these kids out of my yard.
Morgan
No, no, no, no. And then it started melting and stuff. And then my oldest baby box, he stayed outside with a chisel and a hammer and was just chiseling ice off the sidewalk because he was having so much fun and he would not come inside.
Lunchbox
It's a really good thing that they at least get one snow day a year in Tennessee versus none in Texas.
Morgan
And I thought about it. I was like, did we go too hard? Like, did we go too hard this weekend? And then Sunday night, about 2:30 in the morning, baby box two woke up and blah. Vomited everywhere.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah, he went too hard.
Morgan
So he may have went too hard.
Lunchbox
Well, but also, it's good for them to have that experience.
Morgan
No, no. Hashtag worth it.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I was gonna say, because it's always once a Year that we get it here.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
There's no other time to do this again because we will not have another snow day like that. If we do, it's very rare, Right?
Morgan
So it's usually once a year. And it was perfect because they were at the age where they really enjoyed it. And like the three year old I was, when we went to the slopes, I was like, oh, man, is he going to do it, man, first one just gone. He was like, oh, I don't even need. Wasn't nervous. He loved it.
Lunchbox
Just full send.
Morgan
I don't know what that means, but yeah.
Lunchbox
You don't know what false end means?
Morgan
Nope.
Lunchbox
It means when somebody like, instead of, you know, you just go down the sled and it's fun or whatever. It's like he went just head dove first straight at something.
Morgan
Oh, he did. He went. He went. He went all in. I mean, feet first, dove in. Whatever you want to call it do. I mean, not scared at all. It was great. And what's funny is so like, the snow was coming, right? Winter is coming. Winter is coming.
Lunchbox
Are you trying to be like Game of Thrones or something?
Wheezy and Mandy B
Yeah.
Morgan
Being I've never seen it, but I haven't either.
Lunchbox
But I just assume.
Morgan
My wife looked on a mom's page and was like, ace Hardware has a ton of sleds.
Lunchbox
Nice.
Morgan
And she tells me this on Thursday. She goes, but that was four hours ago, so if you want to get some, you better go. So I, you know, drive down to Ace Hardware and I roll up and I'm like, I hope I can find them. And I roll up in the parking lot and they're right there on a pallet. There's like six or seven left.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah, that's not that many.
Morgan
No. And there's three people just standing, like, they're standing there looking at the sleds. And I don't know what they were doing. Were they debating like, oh, are those the right size? Do I want one? They had their hands on their chins just looking at them. I'm like, dude, if there's no options, that's your option. You grab it, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
And I'm like, what are you. There's three people and there's only like seven sleds. So I'm gonna be fighting for. I jump out of the car, grab three immediately, don't even hesitate. Then someone grabs two more, down to two sleds. I mean, just like that.
Lunchbox
It's like spoons but sleds edition.
Morgan
And I'm like, what are you why is there a debate? You just grab them. Crazy people.
Lunchbox
Yeah. I think also there's a lot of people that'll be like, no, we're not gonna get the snow. And I don't need this. It's once a year. But we did this last year. So last year I had. I had went sledding with my neighbors in our, like, neighborhood park. And it was super lame. The hill was super stupid. And we tried to use my river tubes.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And they didn't work out.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
So right after that snow day, Costco had put like some sleds out. And she's like, I'm just gonna buy these in the case that it happens next year. And you know what? We use those sleds that she bought.
Morgan
Those are awesome. The little boogie boards. Yeah, they're like arrows. They're almost. They almost look like an arrow.
Lunchbox
Oh, ours are full on sleds. They were like little plastic.
Morgan
Okay, well, we had those two. But Costco sells these, like, boogie boards. They're like arrow. Those are fantastic. Neighbor had those. We were using those, the plastic ones. We have like a real sled. But I'm going to tell you what, at this age, it's annoying because it's hard for them to pull it all the way up. So you got to go to the bottom of the hill and pull it up. So I'd rather just give the pla. I mean, that was the funnest part, is watching my 3 year old drag that big old plastic sled back up the hill. And it's bigger than him.
Lunchbox
You gotta teach him to do it. Cause that's part of the sledding experience.
Morgan
Man, it was awesome. It was crazy. It was great. So what did you do?
Lunchbox
Well, we're gonna. We'll take a quick break and I'll tell you I have some good stories for you.
Morgan
So you had to go to the Sore Losers podcast for Monday and read all about the snow extravaganza.
Lunchbox
You want him to listen?
Morgan
What?
Lunchbox
You said read. You want him to listen?
Morgan
I said read.
Lunchbox
Yeah, you definitely want him to listen.
Morgan
I guess I went a little too hard last night. Yeah. I want you to listen to Monday's episod and just hear some of the other snow stories. Fantastic.
Lunchbox
Okay, go listen to that, but not yet because we're coming right back.

Lunchbox
Lunchbox. You're going to love this. I made a major core memory and it was totally unintentional.
Morgan
Okay, you did ab workout. You said core.
Lunchbox
Core memory.
Morgan
Oh, like this you get parkour.
Lunchbox
Like this weekend for your kids was a core memory. They're going to remember.
Morgan
They're going to remember it forever. Ever.
Lunchbox
So that was mine. We went think this. They will.
Morgan
I don't know. One time.
Lunchbox
I don't know if the two youngest will.
Morgan
Yeah. Because they're below five so they don't really remember anything before five.
Lunchbox
Yeah. But if you keep reminding them of that story, they'll remember it.
Morgan
Yeah. Okay.
Lunchbox
And you love to remember things.
Morgan
Oh, I remember everything.
Lunchbox
Exactly. So they won't. Yeah, one of them has to have that skill too, I'm hoping.
Morgan
Oh, they do. My 6 year old remembers everything. He's Remember that time Dee Dee kicked me in the face?
Lunchbox
No, that's the bad part of remembering everything.
Morgan
Well, because Dee Dee was babysitting when we were out of town and apparently she was walking up the stairs and he walked up behind her and she put her foot up, you know, as she's walking and kicked him in the face. Or she's like, he's like. Remember that time granny cigarette got me in the. Burned me with her cigarette in my eye. That was on the day baby box three came home from the hospital.
Lunchbox
He's remembering everything. He remembers everything good and bad.
Morgan
It's fantastic.
Lunchbox
Do you remember everything good and bad?
Morgan
Yeah, everything okay. Everything.
Lunchbox
But you're okay?
Morgan
Yeah, I'm good.
Lunchbox
You don't have any.
Morgan
It's weird though, but. But it's in it's bad because I do remember everything. So when someone tells her, I'm like, that's not right. And I correct them. Yeah, it's not bad. It's not good.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Cuz then also the other person's like, wait, what? I remember it this way.
Morgan
Yeah. And I'm like, no, no, trust me. I have a memory of steal. I mean, I'm telling you, my mom. When we were kids, we would. I would go to work sometimes with my dad or whatever, and you'd have payphone back then to call, and we would drive by a payphone on the other side of town, and I'd be like, dad called you from that payphone yesterday. And my mom's like, yeah, right? And she'd get home and ask my dad and be like, yeah, that's where we stopped. I don't know why I have no.
Lunchbox
Do either of your parents have really good memory?
Morgan
I don't know.
Lunchbox
Like, obviously as they get older, that changes. But like, whoa.
Morgan
You saying they got. They're old?
Lunchbox
No, I just know as.
Morgan
Why are you calling my parents old?
Lunchbox
No. As everybody ages, you lose your memory.
Morgan
I don't remember if they have great memory or not, but I like directions. Once I've been somewhere, I know how to get there.
Lunchbox
Okay. Yeah, you are. You're super impressive with that too. You hate that I use GBS every time I drive.
Morgan
It drives me nuts. Like, my wife wants to vlog gbs, and I'm like, I know how to get there. She goes, just in case. And I'm like, would you please stop? Just turn it off.
Lunchbox
I do the same thing to you whenever. Whenever we've driven together. I'm like, no, I need it in gbs.
Morgan
Yes. But I'm like, I can tell you where to go. It drives me insane that people don't know how to get. Like, I don't know how. It's so hard.
Lunchbox
So it's a blessing and a curse.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
For you.
Morgan
I'm a roadmap. Like, I really am a roadmap. In my head, I'm just, boom. Get there. Wow.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
Go to your snow day.
Lunchbox
Speaking of the roads.
Morgan
Core memory.
Lunchbox
Yeah. We were able to drive on the roads. Well, I was.
Morgan
Wait, wait, wait. You did not pull yourself behind the car. No.
Lunchbox
Gosh.
Morgan
That is not. Don't do that.
Lunchbox
My dad did that when we were growing up. That was super fun. But that was like, in Kansas.
Morgan
That is so dangerous. And you should never do that.
Lunchbox
We were experienced and we were in.
Morgan
There is no such thing as Experience.
Lunchbox
When you're in parking lots?
Morgan
I don't know. I have no idea. I've never done it. I've just seen it on the news and tell me how dangerous it is.
Lunchbox
Okay. Well, yeah, because people are dumb and they do it on main roads and it's a whole thing.
Morgan
Okay.
Lunchbox
There's. There's ways to do it safely.
Morgan
Got it.
Lunchbox
And if you're going like five miles, you know, it's a whole thing.
Morgan
Got it.
Lunchbox
Anyways, so you're able to drive on the roads. And we went to Capitol Hill.
Morgan
Oh, the one right out there?
Lunchbox
Yeah, Downtown Nashville. And we show up lunchbox.
Morgan
That's a big hill. And those are a lot of stairs.
Lunchbox
Okay. A lot of stairs. Big hill, yes.
Morgan
Is that the one that's on Rosa Parks?
Lunchbox
Yeah. And it goes straight down like the capitals. On top of it, you have a hill. And so it's on the backside of the.
Morgan
No. Okay.
Lunchbox
You can use Brosa Parks to get to it.
Morgan
But you know what I'm talking about. There's only one hill that I'm talking about. It's.
Lunchbox
Well, that's probably the front side. There's multiple sides.
Morgan
Okay. See that's. I'm trying to think of where it is.
Lunchbox
Well, so like the Capitol. The backside of it, there's literally one hill. It like flattens out and then there's another hill. So you have two massive hills right in this area. But we walk up, some dude had brought his like DJ thing and set up a pop up tent on Capitol Hill to like, dj. That's legit for everybody there. And people were standing there. It was like a whole bar party at in the middle. So like, you have the run hill people drinking. Yes.
Morgan
Legit.
Lunchbox
People have brought like whole liquor bottles and they had packs and packs of beer. Like you would have thought I just walked into some bar.
Morgan
That's legit. Were there kids?
Lunchbox
There were still kids, like sledding and hanging out. So this is what we first walk into. I'm like, what is happening? This is amazing. Also, we're on Capitol Hill. So that also just added a layer to it.
Morgan
Yeah. And you're making. Getting bills passed and kind of.
Lunchbox
It was like, this doesn't feel legal, but we're gonna roll with it.
Morgan
It's okay.
Lunchbox
So we see this all happening. We didn't bring alcohol. We had no idea that that's what was gonna.
Morgan
Oh, so you were the moochers.
Lunchbox
Oh, no, we were. We were focused on sledding.
Morgan
Okay.
Lunchbox
We brought like our sleds. We were that was the goal of why we came. So we're going up there. We're having the best time. We also went full sand. We were going downhill face first. Like we were sending it.
Morgan
That's the fun part.
Lunchbox
But this was the best part, was watching all of the different variations of sleds that people brought.
Morgan
Go for it. I saw. I saw someone trying to use a dang kiddie pool.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
That didn't work. They just threw it to the side.
Lunchbox
There was lots of. There was lots of air situations. Like we saw a T. Rex air floaty that you put on a lake.
Morgan
Okay.
Lunchbox
We saw a swan floaty.
Morgan
Oh, the swan float. That's a big one. That's a cool one when you see it on the lake.
Lunchbox
Air mattresses.
Morgan
Yep.
Lunchbox
That air couch. So lots of air situations. But then there was somebody using a baking tin, cookie sheet.
Morgan
I'll put some Crisco on it.
Lunchbox
I don't even think it needed Crisco. It just went straight down.
Morgan
That's legit.
Lunchbox
So baking sheet was one. Then we saw people putting themselves in full garbage bags and just sliding down the hill.
Morgan
That works.
Lunchbox
Apparently.
Morgan
I would have never thought of that.
Lunchbox
I again, I think it's because the hill was so steep. Everything kind of worked. Everything worked besides cardboard. People had cardboard, and that was not working for them.
Morgan
Oh, that sucks. Oh, because the snow was too fluffy.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
It needs to be more ice. Yeah. So because we used to do cardboard in Texas and we'd go when it would snow, we'd go to the Murkison hill.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
Oh, my gosh. Let me tell you, baby.
Lunchbox
And that would work and work.
Morgan
Someone told me they redid dos, which was the elementary school on top of the hill.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
And so the hills no longer there.
Lunchbox
Oh, that's sad.
Morgan
I know. We used to run that hill and gym. I set the record.
Lunchbox
I'm really happy for you.
Morgan
Thank you.
Lunchbox
You would also love this one because there was these two dudes that came with their couch cushions. What? Girls came with their couch cushions and they put them in garbage bags and that's what they were sliding on.
Morgan
Oh.
Lunchbox
But then these guys brought their couch cushions and wrapped them in duct tape, and that's what they were sliding on.
Morgan
And that works.
Lunchbox
Everything's working on this.
Morgan
You're saying this hill so downhill it works. Okay.
Lunchbox
It was. There was even.
Morgan
There is one hill that I know that it's just straight downhill, but I.
Lunchbox
Don'T know that one.
Morgan
Okay.
Lunchbox
There was also people just going down on their butts. Like, that's how Steep. This hill was.
Morgan
That's legit.
Lunchbox
It was insane to watch. I should have gotten videos of all this. But crazy enough, though, the people that were on the T. Rex. So this hill goes so steep down that you're supposed to bail by the bottom. You're supposed to know, like, you got to bail.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Or you're going into the street or you're hitting a parked car. There's no in between. And apparently the people on this T. Rex floaty didn't seem to care. So she didn't bail. And she goes, wham. Right into a truck, a parked car.
Morgan
Oh, no.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And all of a sudden, no, she. She did not die. We saw her sitting up, but, like, you see the truck rock. That's how hard they hit it. And then you just see her sitting there for the next, like, two hours. Fire. The fire truck came and, like, checked her out.
Morgan
Oh, she had a concussion.
Lunchbox
Yeah, definitely had a concussion for sure.
Morgan
Oh, no.
Lunchbox
That's how intense that hill was.
Morgan
Yeah. Baby Box 3 on Sunday at the neighbor' we were going downhill, and he had planted some trees at the end, like the back fence, trying to create privacy between him and other houses or whatever. And they're not full grown or anything, but in the fence. And we're like, you got to bail before the fence or the trees. And all the kids are bailing, bailing, bailing. They're doing a great job. Then baby box three goes again. I'm like, hey, now, you know to bail, right? You know to bail, right? Yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
Da, da.
Morgan
Yeah, da, da. And I said, all right. Three, two, one. Who am I? Shove him. And he goes flying down that hill. I'm like, bail, bail, bail.
Lunchbox
Boom.
Morgan
Head first into the fence.
Lunchbox
No.
Morgan
I want Mom. I want Mommy. Oh, he had a knot on his head.
Lunchbox
Do you think he was going pretty fast?
Morgan
Yeah, we're going pretty good.
Lunchbox
Yes. Enough to get a knot.
Morgan
Enough to get a knot. But he didn't. And I said, why didn't you bail? I don't know. I want to see how far I could go.
Lunchbox
Sounds a lot like your kid, honestly.
Morgan
But he came back out after a little bit. He just went and got a little noggin knot. Not that I know him.
Lunchbox
Yeah, well, you.
Morgan
Who knows? You know what I mean? He's kind of a crazy idiot anyway.
Lunchbox
So you put some peas, frozen peas on his head.
Morgan
I don't know. I just sent him in to Mom.
Lunchbox
Oh, she was. She wasn't in.
Morgan
No, she was inside cooking breakfast. Yeah.
Lunchbox
So. Well, we had two collisions then on Snow day.
Morgan
So that was. And how long did you stay out there?
Lunchbox
Oh, well, so we was that on Friday or Saturday. So it was when all the snow was still really good.
Morgan
The snow was beautiful. Like it was big snowflakes. And I'm going to tell you what, it wasn't cold. It was only like 30 degrees. So it wasn't like last year when we had it, it was like five degrees.
Lunchbox
Well, and last year we had so.
Morgan
Much ice and it was so miserable because it was 5 degrees. It was so cold. This, it was like 30 degrees and snowing. And it was like, wow, this is perfect.
Lunchbox
It was, it was perfect out. We were out there for two hours. I mean, we went out at 4. So we planned to be done when it went dark. Just to not drive on the roads.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
But we ended up staying because we were having so much fun and just out there experiencing it was like being part of life. Like a very core memory that we'll ever have.
Morgan
Yeah, being part of life, that's usually a good thing.
Lunchbox
Well, I just mean like, you know, there's some moments where you're like, dang, life, you know, it's kind of boring. Nothing's happening. To me, that was like a genuine life is happening and we're in it.
Morgan
Yeah, I had a life is like moment. Like we were. We went to the park on Friday and sledding down the hill. The hill wasn't that good. It wasn't steep enough. So I had to do a lot of pushing because you go down a little section and then you'd have to push again and get them. And so it wasn't that good of a hill. But whatever. But we're there, we're doing. The kids are having fun. People are. I mean, someone built a snowman that was probably 15ft tall.
Lunchbox
Oh, there was a snowman that somebody built there. And they put a bunch of beer cans.
Morgan
That's good.
Lunchbox
On all the hands. So it was like a multi handed snowman with a bunch of beer cans.
Morgan
That's funny.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
But I'm like, I don't know how they got the last ball up on top. They had to put it on someone's shoulders. But anyway, I digress. And we're sledding and some guy looks at me, goes, hey, man. I'm like, oh, great, here we go. Big fan, right? He's like, you guys were that family at the tree. The tree farm when we were getting our tree. And I'm like, oh, man. How's it going, nigga? So when we were Buying our Christmas tree. There was another family there. And our kids and their kids were running through the trees playing hide and go seek.
Lunchbox
Oh, fuck.
Morgan
And you know, you never think you're going to see these people again. He's like, oh, man, good to meet you. I'm like, hey, Zach, night to be you, man.
Lunchbox
They live in the neighborhood.
Morgan
I lived in a different neighborhood, like close. Like right around there. But it was just like, whatever. And then my wife's like, did you get his number? I'm like, no.
Lunchbox
Yeah, you kind of should have. I feel like you met on a second time on purpose.
Morgan
Yeah, it was kind of weird. It was like crazy.
Lunchbox
Yeah, see, that was a life moment.
Morgan
It was a life moment. It was like a wow, this world is so small moment, you know, like.
Lunchbox
Hey, so did they all, all the kids end up sledding together?
Morgan
No, no, no, the kids didn't remember each other. Cause when you're all bundled up, you don't really. And you're just worried about your sled. You're worried about you going down, you running around, throwing snowballs, doing snow angels, everything. Eating snow. Then, yeah, I mean, I don't know. Sore losers die. You know, you can check it out Monday. There's other stories. But yeah, that dude, I forgot about him right now. Zach. Good to see you, Zach.
Lunchbox
See, now you get it. Life moment.
Morgan
Life moment. It was all life moments this weekend. It was real life moments. When he starts puking at 2:30 in the morning, that was real life.
Lunchbox
Yeah, well, that's when you say you're having a whole lot of fun. Honestly, it's kind of full circle moment. Right? Like when you're a kid, you have so much fun that you puke. When you're a medium adult, you puke because you drank too much. And then when you're older, you start to get older and you puke because life, so like, it's kind of full circle if you think about it.
Morgan
Do you puke when you're older? I mean, I don't know many granny and grandpas that are puking.
Lunchbox
I mean, I'm saying like old, old age, like in life happening.
Morgan
Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
Lunchbox
Things upset your stomach a lot easier.
Morgan
I see what you're saying. I was just like, I don't, I don't know granny and grandpas throw up that much.
Lunchbox
I'm just trying to create the full circle moment.
Morgan
Got it. Oh yeah, Full circle.
Lunchbox
You can say more. You're wearing diapers. That's kind of more the. But you don't really wear diapers when you're like, middle adult? So I was trying to find a. Gotcha.
Morgan
I got you. It's Saturday. I'm just tired.
Lunchbox
Sorry you weren't getting that one. Okay, we're taking one more quick break. We'll be right back.

Okay, well, do you want to talk about anything from your vacation? I know it's. We're kind of past it, but did you have anything fun? Holiday break? Anything you want to share? No, big yawn.
Morgan
We Saturday morning friends, we literally just stayed here. So we did nothing.
Lunchbox
I mean, but you had in laws.
Morgan
In town for two weeks. And then my sister in law and my wife's aunt came. Not sure how many days they stayed for. And then her brother and his wife and two kids came for like 60 hours the day after Christmas. And they were in and out pretty quick. But their son is four, so he's the same age. Is he four? Yeah, he's like in between my middle and my youngest, like right in between them. And he had never been around kids like this and it was just like.
Lunchbox
Oh, they never all hung out before.
Morgan
Very rarely. Okay, Very rarely. And let me tell you, him and my youngest were attached at the hip for the two days they were here. And I have never seen these kids. They were just going so balls to.
Lunchbox
The wall when you say that, are you talking about like playing inside and there's activities going on?
Morgan
I Mean running around, outside, inside, upside, downside, inside. I mean everywhere. Wrestling, jumping on the bed. I mean, the air mattress, you know, you put in the room so they can have a slumber party. Just jumping, jump and jump. And I mean, just running back and forth, back and forth. I mean, we played a game where they'd run to one side of the room and slide and I'd say, oh. And then they'd get up and run to the other side of the room and slide. And I'd say, say. Played that for 45 minutes. They thought that was the best game in the world.
Lunchbox
You know, lunch. I really love kids, but honestly, that sounds exhausting. Was it?
Morgan
It was just like, wow, this is. You guys like this game. I just.
Lunchbox
I know, but I'm like curious, like for you as an adult. And you're like, this is happening all the time for two weeks straight.
Morgan
Oh, it's great.
Lunchbox
You love it. Every moment of the time. You.
Morgan
Every moment. Sometimes, like, oh my gosh, I could take a rest. But they, he. They got along so well and they were just, they just went so hard that the day after they left. The day after or the day. No, the day after they left. I mean, we didn't take naps, we didn't do anything, you know, like when.
Lunchbox
They were there, when we were there.
Morgan
And so, because my 3 year old's always like, no, I'm not tired, I'm not tired. He was sitting on the couch the day after they left. It was 4:00. He wrapped himself around my wife's arm like a little monkey.
Lunchbox
Just out like a light.
Morgan
Two hours later, I said, hey, bud, bud, we're gonna eat dinner. We're gonna eat dinner. You wanna wake up? He woke up, walked. And I'm like, oh. He's walking to the table, grabs his water bottle, takes a big drink.
Lunchbox
It's the sound effects for me.
Morgan
Gets back on the couch.
Lunchbox
So didn't even eat dinner.
Morgan
So I just picked him up, put him in his bed. He Woke up at 7:30 the next morning. Dang Dunzo.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that was really good for him.
Morgan
It was hilariously awesome. Then here's the crazy part. So then my in laws were leaving on the second.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
But then Garrett and his family flew in on the second.
Lunchbox
And so you had company just the whole.
Morgan
Yeah. And Garrett and his family, they overlapped, so they were at the house for a few hours with the in laws. And so like the in laws got kicked out of the room. They like Airbnb style. We had to flip the room Real quick.
Lunchbox
I was gonna say, what's the sleeping arrangements when all of that's happening?
Morgan
Oh, the kids all sleep in the same room.
Lunchbox
Okay. Kind of like a sleepover.
Morgan
Yeah, you just throw an air mattress down and we have a nugget. It's like. A nugget is like cushions that you build forts and stuff with.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
We throw those on the ground and they all sleep on those.
Lunchbox
And they're like bean bags kind of.
Morgan
No, no, they're like mattress. Like Google it.
Lunchbox
I've never heard of this.
Morgan
Yeah, it's a nugget.
Lunchbox
Nugget.
Morgan
Yeah. And they have different. You build different designs with them. Then the other the.
Lunchbox
Oh, they're like. It's like you'd be in a gymnastics place and they kind of have all these different cushions.
Morgan
Yeah, but they're not really gymnastic y. They're like.
Lunchbox
I see little triangles and stuff though. Like, you'd add them all and you could do little things over them.
Morgan
You can. Yeah, you can do anything. It's awesome. So, yeah, like my sister in law, she slept on an air mattress on the floor in her parents room. In the room with her parents.
Lunchbox
Oh, man.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then.
Lunchbox
And you basically on the couch.
Morgan
No, no couch. Just air mattresses.
Lunchbox
I feel like sometimes couches are comfier than air mattresses, though.
Morgan
Oh, no, we got one of those. There's big ones now. Like they.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I mean, I have one, but like, my couch is so comfy. Sometimes I offer, I'm like, you know, I'll sleep on the couch. I love it.
Morgan
Yeah. So that was it. And then. So Garrett and them were there. But then this was so bad because they're right. When they landed, they were only at our house for a couple hours. When the airline starts texting them. There may be severe weather on Sunday. You can switch your flight for free. So instead of staying for three days, they only stay for two days because there were supposed to be bad weather. Yeah, all it did was rain. It didn't even get bad weather.
Lunchbox
What airline were they on?
Morgan
Southwest.
Lunchbox
Southwest always cancel stuff.
Morgan
So they just. They. They were only here for 48 hours instead of 72 hours. So that trip got cut a little short. But they had so much fun. They played soccer. We went to the. What is it called? Yeah, Memory.
Lunchbox
Come on. Lunchbox. The lights.
Morgan
The lights. The. I don't. I'm not Cheekwood.
Lunchbox
I was like, the lights, my guy. There's lights everywhere.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cheekwood. So we went and walked those lights and everything was that cool.
Lunchbox
I've never. I've gone to Cheekwood a bunch, but I haven't ever done Christmas lights.
Morgan
It was nice and it was perfect because we went after Christmas, so there's no one there, so the kids could run around and be crazy, and they weren't running over people.
Lunchbox
You guys did Opryland, too, didn't you?
Morgan
We did ice at Opryland, and that was fantastic. We did that with the family. And that is always good because the way they carve that stuff out of ice, I don't understand.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's like £2 million of ice or something.
Morgan
And it's like this one was Frosty the Snowman. I'm like, how do they do this?
Lunchbox
It's crazy. And the fact that it, like, holds up so you're in all the parkas.
Morgan
And I guarantee you they clean those parkas every time.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Morgan
Real well.
Lunchbox
Well, at least you're not, you know, not a lot of bodily fluids because you're all bundled.
Morgan
Anyway, that was it. I mean, that's all. I mean, really, that's all we did.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
We hung out.
Lunchbox
It sounds fun, though. It sounds like a lot of family time.
Morgan
It was great.
Lunchbox
Enjoyable. You relaxed? Some, maybe.
Morgan
Yeah, we were like. No, relaxed.
Lunchbox
Okay. There's a lot of. I can't really tell.
Morgan
No, no, there was relaxing. I mean, we didn't really do. Like I said, we didn't do much.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but like, also, you did stuff because the kids were active.
Morgan
All the kids were active. Yeah.
Lunchbox
So it wasn't like you're sitting there on the couch, like, lounging around for hours.
Morgan
Oh. And then the women, they all went and saw Wicked, so that was great.
Lunchbox
You didn't want to see Wicked?
Morgan
I wasn't invited. Really?
Lunchbox
Were you sad you weren't in? No.
Morgan
I don't really care.
Lunchbox
Okay. I didn't know if you wanted to see Wicked.
Morgan
Now. I didn't really matter to me.
Lunchbox
Yeah, we rented it on my last. After I had gotten back from my trip, on my, like, last day home with my family. That was like. The one thing we did was we. We rented Wicked and we all watched.
Morgan
Your dad love it.
Lunchbox
No, dad was not part of that participation. Yeah, the worst part for us over the Christmas is my parents refrigerator went out.
Morgan
Oh, no.
Lunchbox
Like, before the day before Christmas.
Morgan
So I had to buy a new one, thankfully.
Lunchbox
You know, listen, in Kansas, we love a garage refrigerator situation.
Morgan
You have a garage?
Lunchbox
We got a backup. So everything was out there. But, like, it was. It was the worst time for some. All the Food was made. It was in there, like, ready for Christmas Day.
Morgan
Dang.
Lunchbox
And so he was dealing still with, by the time I'd gotten back, them getting the refrigerator fixed. So he was doing that while we were all watching. Wicked.
Morgan
See, I always thought someone that had a refrigerator in their garage was big time. No, because like, Justin, he lived down the street from me. He had an extra fridge in the garage. And I was just always like, dang. Yeah, this dude's got it. Like, oh, my gosh, this is amazing. Wild.
Lunchbox
It was a thing in Kansas. Everybody had garages. Like, my sister, even still to this day, like, when she bought her house, like, she put a refrigerator specifically in the garage.
Morgan
She had one in the house too, though, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah, but it's like the backup one.
Morgan
Yeah. So interesting.
Lunchbox
But I can't have one here. I don't have a big enough garage for it.
Morgan
Yeah, but we didn't have that. Like, I was like, as a kid, I was just like, man, that was. That's it, man.
Lunchbox
Our outdoor refrigerator when we were kids always held all the ices, all of our ice for, like, the summer days when we'd be out. It always had waters, like, stacked with waters and Gatorade. So it was like, for us, when we were outside doing.
Morgan
How you mean water? You didn't drink out of the hose?
Lunchbox
I mean, we did that too. We also were, like, at the pool and had pool days and stuff.
Morgan
I mean, there was no. I never had bottled water in my life.
Lunchbox
That was that. The outdoor fridge. I'm gonna tell you right now, it was a regular thing in Kansas, people had outdoor refrigerators for this specific reason.
Morgan
I can't believe you guys had bottled water as a kid. Oh, my. You grew up different than I did.
Lunchbox
Oh, well, also, I was drinking Mountain Dew out of a liter, so there was that, too.
Morgan
I drink. See, what I am, I can't wait for is when my boys are old enough and they start drinking milk straight from the gallon. That's legit. That's when, you know, you feel like.
Lunchbox
Now they still do that, though.
Morgan
Heck, yeah. Teenage boys drink straight from the gallon, guaranteed.
Lunchbox
I don't know. I feel like we've gotten away from that. They're so guaranteed.
Morgan
No, it's because you're else. You realize, oh, my gosh, I shouldn't do that. But my, the teenage boys are going to be walking around in their underwear, their boxers, drinking straight from the gallon. That's what we do. That. I, I, Those are my core memories.
Lunchbox
I know, but fill me in as they get older. I just want to know if this continues to happen.
Morgan
Guarantee you hit us up. Guys, I know you have your teenagers out there that are walking around in their boxers and drinking straight from the gallon, and it drives you nuts because it drove my mom nuts.
Lunchbox
We did. Listen, the. We had Mountain Dew leaders, Diet Mountain Dew leaders from my dad and I and then Diet Pepsi leaders from my sister and my mom. That was like, the two. The things we like. And we would drink out of those. It was horrible. The fact that we drank so much of that growing up, horrible.
Morgan
So that's so weird. So what did teenage girls. Did you guys just got dressed every day?
Lunchbox
What do you mean?
Morgan
Because, like, teenage boys walk around in their underwear all day. Like.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah. I mean, we wear a little Sophie shorts that we'd roll over multiple times in our, like, big little Sophie. Or like, there was a brand of shirts that we'd wear. But yeah, so we had clothes on.
Morgan
Huh. That's so weird.
Lunchbox
We weren't allowed to walk around naked.
Morgan
No, that's what I'm saying. That's what I just. Can I just be honest? It just hit me. I'm like, so girls didn't get to do that?
Lunchbox
You had a sister, though.
Morgan
Yeah, I know, but I didn't even think about that until right now.
Lunchbox
You, like, didn't realize she wasn't doing the same thing you were doing?
Morgan
No. I mean, I guess I realized it then, but I just. I feel bad because I'm like, we literally just wore underwear all day and drank out of the gallon, sat on the couch, like, what up?
Lunchbox
Yeah. No, that never even existed in my house because I didn't have a brother.
Morgan
That sucks.
Lunchbox
Dad always had clothes on, so.
Morgan
Yeah, I imagine so. Your dad didn't ever just walk around with a shirt off?
Lunchbox
Sometimes after he had, like, mowed or he was outside or something. But yeah.
Morgan
Huh.
Lunchbox
It's a different. It does a different just household style because, you know, he's at one dude, and there's five girls.
Morgan
That's so crazy. That's so wild.
Lunchbox
