Before we had AT&T business wireless coverage, our delivery GPS wasn't the most reliable. Once our driver had to do a 14 point turn to get back on route. A 14 point turn. An influencer even livestream the whole thing. Not good for business. Now with AT&T business Wireless, routes are updating on the fly and deliveries are on time.

what's hap?
B
What's happening? What's up? I got perp in my cup what's happening? What's up? You're not working.
A
I know. My brain. What's up, everybody? Happy weekend. It is best bits time. And as you heard, Scuba Steve, it's best bits time. It is.
B
That's what we're doing.
A
That's what we're here for. Fake energy. But I like it. As you can hear, Scuba Steve is with me this weekend. Scuba, how are you?
B
Oh, man. I'm doing a wonderful. I'm doing all right. I've had a stressful morning, but everything's all right. We're doing all right. We're here. We're best betsing it up.
A
Well, we're gonna have some fun conversation and mitigate some of that stress.
B
All right, let's do it.
A
Not think about it.
B
Okay.
A
I need to know if you've been nerding out on anything lately.
B
Nerding? Yeah. We have a Disney trip coming up, so I've been nerding out on that a little bit, like making my reservations. And I'm pretty excited. It's the kids, like, first, like, real full big Disney trip of all three kids going and being there and doing like the hotel and all that stuff.
A
Yeah. Are they all able to ride rides now? Are they all big enough that my
B
oldest, it can ride everything. He's hella tall. He's like in that 99% tile of height. Nice has been. He is.
A
Can't relate.
B
So tall. Yeah, you can't relate at all.
A
Never been able to relate.
B
Yeah, exactly. You still can't ride some of the rides at Disney.
A
Yep. Literally. That's not actually true, but there are moments. Right. I got it a little close.
B
You get in line, like, ma', am, can you stand next to that seven year old and make sure you're tall enough?
A
I'm shocked. I've never been asked.
B
And then my. My middle child, my daughter, she's getting tall and she can ride almost all the rides. I think she's like 47 inches. 48 inches.
A
Oh, yeah, she's right there. I think 48 is the cutoff from
B
almost all the rides. Yeah. And then my youngest, she's around like 38, 40 inches. So she can do a lot of the rides, like the Snow White, which I was surprised. The Snow White Mine, whatever. Roller coaster.
A
Snow White. And the. The Seven Dwarves. The mine train or something.
B
Yeah, yeah. And Thunder Mountain is reopening with a brand new track and everything, so that'd be kind of cool.
A
She might be able to ride those.
B
She definitely ride those. Yeah.
A
Oh, that's Exciting.
B
Yeah. Yeah. So we're all going to be able to ride a lot of rides, which is fun.
A
Oh, and any restaurants you're excited about right now?
B
So we didn't. Well, the one we did that was kind of cool because I've done it before, but my kids have never experienced it. Is inside Cinderella's castle. They have a restaurant on the second floor, and we got an evening reservation right before fireworks. So we'll be in there during the firework thing when they're doing that at Magic Kingdom.
A
So fun.
B
Yeah.
A
Is there a cool view of the fireworks from in there?
B
Yes. It's like this big, huge, like, glass window, and you can see everything where the fireworks are, and it's. It's a cool experience.
A
Oh, that's fun. Okay. I can't wait to see videos of that.
B
Yeah. Yeah. The lights go down and everything. It's like a whole thing.
A
Isn't that one of the character din, too? So you get, like, the characters hanging out?
B
Because it's Cinderella. Did I say Snow White?
A
No, you said Cinderella.
B
Cinderella. I don't have Snow White in my head.
A
Well, you said Snow White. The rye.
B
The rye. That's why. That's why. Thank you so much for recalling that for me.
A
I got you.
B
Yeah. Cinderella, she comes around. I believe some of the characters in the movie, they come around. I haven't done it in, like, 15, 20 years, so it's been a minute.
A
Yeah. That's gonna be so fun for them. Is Cinderella the only character? I wonder.
B
I think maybe the fairy godmother may come around or one of the little rats. They may come around. I don't know.
A
Cinderella doesn't have a whole lot of characters. I mean, Cinderella, Prince Charming, the rats.
B
The little mice thing.
C
Yeah.
A
Send them. Rally. Said the rally. Those little guys, I don't think they sing. Maybe they do that.
B
Yeah, they go. They sing the song. They go send up rallies in the movie. Yeah.
A
But in the.
B
Oh, no.
A
Character dinner.
B
Another mouse. Don't move. It's a person inside there. Spoiler alert. There's humans in there.
A
I didn't know if they did them as animatronics, because that would be cool.
B
That'd be kind of cool. Yeah.
A
And they would sing.
B
I know some of the. I think Disneyland, but again, I haven't been to Disney World in a minute, but I know Disneyland. When I was there, living there, they had Mickey Mouse where they were starting to get his mouth to move, and there was like a almost animatronic face, which is really cool.
A
That is Fun.
B
See?
A
And I know a lot of them are starting to do animatronics again.
B
Yeah.
A
It was like they did it and then they took it away and they brought it back.
B
Yes.
A
They also are kind of creepy because when I think of animatronics, I think of Chuck E. Cheese, so.
B
Yes. Yeah. Chuck E. Cheese was always scary. Yeah.
A
Like, I don't know why. As a kid, we would always go and get excited to go to Chuck E. Cheese, but it was creepy.
B
It was. And you had a little big purple guy on the piano, like just rocking back and forth and not hitting any of the keys.
A
Yeah.
B
And their eyes are blinking, like. And when every once while they would blink and one of them will blink and one of them wouldn't blink and you're like, oh, malfunction.
A
Like I would imagine a horror movie and it's just in the dark and you're sitting there with animatronics.
B
I almost kind of think that's where the concept of, you know, that Freddy Nights or Five Nights at Freddy Whatever.
A
Yeah.
B
It feels like that's like very Chuck E. Cheese esque, you know?
A
Yeah. They were inspired as a kid.
B
I think so. Yeah.
A
We have one in Nashville, an animatronic karaoke bar.
B
I've always wanted to go there. Is it cool?
A
I haven't been.
B
Okay.
A
But it's called, like Critters something. And it's in a hotel. It kind of a side.
B
Yeah.
A
People who have gone have loved it. But I just, like. Something about the animatronics really creeps me out.
B
Okay. Yeah.
A
I just haven't been able to convince myself to go.
B
I kind of like the animatronics where they're far away and you're on a ride and you're just passing them and you don't really get to hang out with them for any period of time.
A
Well. And those animatronics, I feel like, are so much more detailed than they're like, fully thought out. They replicate something. But the animatronics in a Chuck E. Cheese or Bunk, they're like a random animal, like a rabbit or squirrel, and you're just like, why are your eyes moving that way?
B
And the robotics of it suck. Isn't it crazy that Walt Disney created those animatronics in the 50s and they're better than the ones that you got at Chuck E. Cheese in the 90s?
A
Yeah.
B
The technology was far surpassed the 50s, and they couldn't get it near as well as he did it.
A
Walt Disney was holding on to all his secrets.
B
I know he's an alien.
A
Seriously though, have you gone down that
B
conspiracy theory a little bit? Well, it was crazy. I haven't posted this video yet. I was going to put it up at some point, maybe next week. Now that I'm like in this like social world, I have to like space things out and all this bull crap. Stupid. But above my house, it was maybe Monday or Tuesday this week. I went outside and I saw this super bright, like ultra bright light up in the, in the, in the sky. But it was like down. It was like closer than where. No, mean where the stars are and everything. And a lot of times when I see a super bright star or something, I'll pull. I have this app, it's called. It is an app. It's really cool. If you don't have it, it's the coolest thing ever. It's free. It's called skyview Light. And you can open this thing up and you get inside here. Of course you can pay for the more expensive version. But you look around where you're at and like right where you're sitting, of course that way is Jupiter. So you're aligned with Jupiter right now. But see if you look around right here, see how you can see the sky like this?
A
Yeah.
B
You look around like the moon is over there. You can find all the different, like Aquarius and whatever. And so when I see a super bright light, I go, oh, I wonder what that is. And usually it's like a Jupiter or a Mars or a Venus or something. There's the Hubble telescope. So I did that. I pulled it out, try to line it up to see what it was. And it was nothing. It wasn't a star. It was nothing. It was not even. It wasn't a little star. It had nothing on my radar right here. And then so I was like, oh my God, let me record a video of this. So I started recording a video of it. And this, I kid you not, the craziest thing ever. So I'm recording a video, maybe 20, 30 seconds of it. I go to like look down on my phone to stop it and like, you know, turn my phone off. It's also like four in the morning. So I go turn my phone off, put in my pocket and I look back up and it's gone. And I'm like. So in that like 10 second time frame, if I don't know where it went. And I wish I would have had my head up to look to see what happened to it.
A
Yeah. Like, did it just flip off? Did it like where did it go?
B
No idea where it went or what happened to it or how it left or where it. But it was gone. Like, just completely gone.
A
That's so cool.
B
I know. And then I'm looking at the video, I zoom in on it, and I can see multiple lights on it, which is even crazier.
A
So listen, I'm full believer, so you don't have to convince me. If you can't look up into the sky, see space, and think that we are the only ones who have figured this out in that vast space that's up there, you're crazy.
B
You're out of your mind. Yeah.
A
There's a whole entire universe out there. We are not the only planet that
B
figured things out totally. And you have to be kind of. I don't know why people think that way, but you have to almost kind of be a little bit ignorant that you feel like we are the superior being, we are the superior planet. Like, who. Who's to say there isn't life on all the other planets? We haven't been there. We have no idea. We can't get to Neptune or Jupiter or any of that crap. You haven't seen it, so you have no idea.
A
No. And we like to think it's not livable because it's not in the same capacity as how we've created Earth or however Earth was created. Yes, but then you look at those other places and we don't know that beings didn't figure out how to live within those particular environments and climates.
B
Yeah, we have no idea. Yeah, we have no idea. And the fact that anyone thinks that. That we are the ultimate. You're out of your mind. You got to open. You have to open your mind up. I'm not putting you down. You just have to open up your mind to the idea that we are not almighty.
A
See, and I, like, that's the only reason why I want to live for a really long time is so I can hopefully potentially see space exploration, see what we find out. Or even if I don't live forever, maybe I come back and I get to be around when we go to space and we have this futuristic that we are out in space and we're understanding other planets and we're meeting other beings.
B
Well, maybe after your life, maybe the afterlife is somewhere else and you wake
A
you on another planet.
B
Yeah. You're like, oh, my God, Neptune does have life. I am from Neptune.
A
Isn't that crazy?
B
Yeah.
A
But then, like, you're caught up to create. Like Neptune also only thinks that they're the only ones.
B
Yeah. Earth is stupid. There's no way they could live there. It's too much water.
A
Yeah, well. And honestly, it's not helping because the thing that I've been nerding out on lately is Star Trek.
B
Oh, really? Oh, Star Trek, okay.
A
Yes.
B
That's my dad's favorite show.
A
Okay. So I couldn't get into a lot of the old ones when I did my whole like Marvel, Star wars and I got into all of those during COVID Yeah. I tried to watch the old Star Trek movies. I was like, they're good, they're fine. But I was just. I wasn't really connecting with it.
B
Yeah.
A
And then I found there was a new show that came out called Star Trek. It's Starfleet Academy. It was like a brand new TV show and I watched it, I enjoyed it, and then I like got a pop up. It was like Star Trek Discovery. Okay, Scuba, I cannot put this TV show down.
B
Is the one from the 90s or a new one?
A
No, it's from like the 2005. 2010, I think.
B
Okay.
A
Or maybe a little bit later than that. But it's newer, so it's not a full blown old one. But they have a lot of discourse about the older ones. So I know at least stuff that's going on with like Spock. Spock is part of it. It's. There's just a lot of things I'm learning in it and I just. All I want to do is watch this TV show. I'm obsessed.
B
Yes. Our Trek is a lot of fun.
A
It's so good. It is about space exploration. Like Star wars was really about wars. Right. I mean, that's in the name you were battling there. It was all action, all the time. There was always people fighting each other.
B
Different, almost like Earth, different races fighting each other for no reason.
A
Yeah. Like they all had different things they needed or wanted. But then Star Trek is about space exploration.
B
Yeah.
A
And I love that. Like, I feel like I'm learning with. Obviously none of it's true or whatever.
B
Maybe, maybe it is.
A
And this is how they're teaching us. I don't know. But it's just really cool to think about, like the way that they enter and try and talk to new life forms and how they go about space exploration. I am, I'm in. I am now there. I'm a nerd of all things.
B
Yeah. It's crazy because Star Trek kind of gets forgotten and not really talked about. And my dad used to work for the government and used to fly. Who Knows the hell he did and what happened to him. But he was obsessed with two shows, which made me think if somebody is like, kind of like if you're into an industry and you work in it and you're all about it, why was he so obsessed with Star Trek and Quantum Leap and have you ever heard of Quantum Leap? Yeah, that's a show where it's like basically, you know, you're being able to manipulate and transform and shape shift and all kinds of stuff like that. And so I was like, why was he so obsessed with those two things? And he would, he was hired by the government and worked on ships and flying devices and, and like saw all kinds of stuff and worked in top secret areas and would be gone for a month and be in Guam and Iraq and Iran and in the 90s and the 80s. So you wonder like, what, you know, maybe he's watching and be like, oh, that's true. Yeah, I've seen that. I've seen a version of that.
A
Or like, have they gotten it right?
B
Yeah, have they gotten it right? Yeah, yeah. Oh no, that's wrong. That's not what we do. We do this. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
Like that's so that just watching it and realizing that that could be a possibility one day is so cool to me.
B
It really is.
A
I'm obsessed with space. I think space is just the coolest thing ever.
B
It is because it's infinite. That's why it's so cool, because it's so, it's so undiscovered. That's why it's so intriguing. Because you don't know what it is. And you can't, in this at least instance or right now, you don't know what it is.
A
No. 1 each like Star Trek season is about a different thing. One was time travel, one was stopping the end of the universe, one was discovering how life forms were created.
B
Like, yeah.
A
And I, it's. Star Trek is how my brain works when it comes to space and science. That's how I wanna, that's how I wish we could evolve. So we could be in spaceships and we could travel to other planets and go through time and study the ecosystems. All of that stuff is so cool to me.
B
It is. And even so, this, yeah, we used to watch, My dad would watch the original one, the Star Trek original series. That one, that's when they had William Shatner in it.
A
I did see that one on there and it's like, gosh, it's like 11 seasons, but it's hard. That one is.
B
Yeah, it's only three seasons. It's the original one from 66 to 69.
A
Okay. There's a lot of Star Trek.
B
Yeah. The one that you're thinking of, this is the one that I watched with my dad a lot. It was Star Trek the Next Generation. That's the one from 87 to 94.
A
Okay.
B
That was the really popular one. That was like seven or eight seasons. Like super popular. The one you're probably watching is Star Trek the Discovery. Yes, that's the one. That's the newer one. That's one that just came out. Yeah. And then Star Trek Enterprise was another fun one.
A
So I'm gonna watch Star Trek Enterprise next. I'm finishing season five of Discovery at the moment.
B
Yeah, Enterprise is a cool one because it has. What's his name in it. That's from. Has Scott Bakula. He's the one that's from the TV show that we watched as a kid.
A
Is that the captain?
B
Yes, he was in Quantum Leap. That was his TV show.
A
So he's also. If it's Captain Pike. Is that who I'm. Is that the same person you're seeing?
B
No, his name is. He's Jonathan Archer in the TV show.
A
Okay. So they've only brought back for Discovery. They brought back Captain pike and they brought back Spock and they brought back Spock's dad. Who is the other. What is their. What is their species?
B
I'm not sure.
A
What is Spock?
B
I don't know. I remember now.
A
Of course, now I'm watching it and I'm so in.
B
Exactly. Yeah.
A
Well, they. They've now evolved, so they're a different planet and it changed the. The name of them. But I, I'm just. Yeah, I'm all in. Like, I'm completely nerdy now. I can't stop watching it. I've been to the entire five seasons in the last gosh month.
B
You have a lot to do because. So in the 90s, they started branching off. I forgot they have Star Trek Voyager and Star Trek Deep Space Nine. That's all in the 90s. So the 90s was the first. The original 80s 90s was the next Generation, which played off of the original Star Trek TV show. And then after Next Generation in that they. Then they had Star Trek Voyager, but in Voyager they also had Deep Space Nine. And so we used to watch all those. Yeah, there's so many. And all those have like six or seven seasons and we used to watch all those.
A
And I tried trying to get into like, old TV shows and stuff is hard for me.
B
Yeah.
A
Not because I don't think it wouldn't be good. It's just hard to watch when you're used to the digital. Digital now.
B
I know. Yeah, yeah.
A
It makes it.
B
I kind of appreciate the old school because then you knew that people had to handcraft that makeup and the prosthetics and all the other sets were real and tangible for me. I watch it as like, this is so cool. And this is unbelievable. They were able to make that with their hands, whereas now it's like, well, yeah, of course you can make it with ones and zeros. And that's like kind of the lame cop out.
A
I know. And I listen. I love that for one episode and then I'm like, okay, I like the new technology. Not. Not AI.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
I like the. Just the newer digital stuff.
B
Yeah, yeah. It just looks cleaner. I get it.
A
Yeah, yeah. It. It's hard to get my brain to go back to the old one when I'm so used to the new one.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
You know what I mean?
B
Yeah, yeah. I got you.
A
So that's why I'm staying in there. But, yeah, that's what I've been nerding out.
B
Okay.
A
I've full nerd. I mean, I got Harry Potter, Star Wars, Marvel dc, now at Star Trek. I even watched Lord of the Rings because that's my fiance's favorite.
B
Okay. I love Lord of the Rings.
A
Yeah, I'm a little nerd.
B
Yeah. Lord of the Rings are a little long, but I like them, though.
A
They are long. My next venture into that, once I get over my star. My Star Trek obsession is the Hobbit, which I've not watched yet.
B
I haven't seen that. I just watched the first Lord of the Rings, and then I was out.
A
Okay. So that's what I watch. And I got mad at him. I was like, there's a lot of animals that die in this. Why didn't you tell me? He's like, honestly, I forgot.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was such a long time ago. I feel like.
A
Yeah. So.
B
Yeah. And speaking of the space, another place I'm excited to go to when I go to Disney. I don't know if you went to there. It was@epcot. Space220.
A
Is it a new ride?
B
No, it's a restaurant. Oh, yeah, It's a restaurant where you actually. You go inside of the restaurant and then, like, it's like all. Like you're in space. Like, it's got.
A
How do I not know about those things?
B
This one's so hard. You have to get reservations for all these, and it's so hard to get reservations at some of these. And you have to do it like the moment they unlock and they open reservations. I think it's like a month or two out from whenever you go. Like, I, I was up at one in the morning and I was getting all of our reservations and as I was getting them, they're like, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone. So. And the people were booking them and. And I was like, oh, my God, this is going fast. So I got like times that were like, fine, and some of them the time sucked, but I just booked whatever.
A
Okay, well, I love that. Yeah, I cannot wait for your trip. I'm living through you guys. Yeah, of course. Okay, we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back.
C

That's why I want to tell you about mood.com. that's mood.com. mood ships federally legal cannabis straight to your door. No medical card, no hassle. And here's the kicker.

get started, imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal, but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.
A
Within probably 10 days, I'd put on £10.
B
I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

B
This is like a quiz. It's like one of those team beat, tiger beat quizzes, kind of.
A
It was more like, I saw this one question online, then I kind of kept going down it.
B
Okay.
A
It's just the. Literally the kind of person you are. If you get stopped by a train, do you wait or do you try and find a different way to where you're going?
B
I guess it depends on where I'm going. If I'm, like, in a rush and I'm running to a certain event, then I will, like. Then I look at it like, what? Can I really find another way to go? A lot of times you can't because it's blocking everywhere you need to go. So I'd say nine times out of 10, I just chill and wait.
A
See, nine times out of 10, I'm looking for another way.
B
Okay. And for the kids in the car, like, that's so cool. And I'm like, oh, that's true. They're loving it. So I roll the windows down. We watch it and have a good time and enjoy it.
A
That's fun. See, when you're just by yourself, it's not exciting.
B
Well, even by myself, I'm like, I don't. There's nothing I can do about this. I'm just gonna sit here and wait.
A
Yeah, see, but that's. It's teaching us about our patience. You have a little bit more patience. I don't have as much patience to sit there and wait. I don't like Most of the time. Because, like, what I wish trains did was tell me how many more.
B
Oh, yeah, you have no idea. It just keeps going and going.
A
The few times that I've been like, I'm just going to wait it out. I'm like, this thing went for 15 minutes forever.
B
Or the moment you go to a three point turn to get out of there, it stops.
A
Yes.
B
And then it's gone. And then you're like, oh, dang it.
A
So why can't we have either spray paint the number or like there's like a digital. Like it's counting down more, three more, and then that might make that whole thing smoother.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
But how have we not invented that type of technology? I don't understand this.
B
Why humans be more patient. That's what it is.
A
Listen, some days, but most days, that's where we're learning what kind of people we are. Okay, do you keep things stocked like paper towels, toilet paper, soaps, or even toiletries? Or do you buy only one thing at a time?
B
We're a family with kids and we go to Costco, so we're, we're stocked, especially if it's on sale. We're like, oh, we need that eventually. So let's just buy 18 more toilet paper rolls for the. So we don't have to sit there like, damn it, we're out of toilet paper rolls. So we're always stocked on like those kind of essential items.
A
See, and that's. If you open up my closet, it looks like an entire, like Bath and Body Works, if you will.
B
You can go in there and go shopping.
A
Yes. Like I am. You would think an apocalypse is coming at any moment in time. Because I have stocked on all my favorite things. Like, once I find a favorite of
B
something, just buy it.
A
Skincare, be toiletry, whatever. Yeah, I'm just like, okay, keep it. Keep it in stock so then I don't have to worry about running out of it.
B
That's awesome.
A
Like, if you go underneath my bathroom counters, there's rows of the same thing.
B
Oh, damn. Okay. Wow.
A
It's crazy. So I am like, stock to the brim.
B
That's like a Costco girl. Yeah, very Costco. And then we also do Blue Land. I don't know if you've ever heard of that.
A
I love the land. That's what I use.
B
We use that for soap and everything. So we have like 100 of those, which only takes up a very small space. And, you know, you just put it in the glass bottle, add hot water.
A
Yeah.
B
Boom. Done.
A
Blue Hand is my favorite. That was one that I transitioned all my cleaning stuff over to.
B
We do that to cleaning stuff. But we saw it on shark tank like 15 years ago, and we're immediately flipped and switched.
A
They don't use any plastic now. They're all these little disintegrated tablets for everything.
B
Yeah, yeah. And they smell. The soaps smell so good. They have all kinds of, like crazy ass, like, flavor. Flavors.
A
Flavors. Are you eating?
B
So don't eat the sub unless you curse in front of your mother.
A
That's a throwback. I remember that. If you curse, you put. They'll put stuff in your mouth. Yeah, yeah, that was a throwback. Okay, so we're both on the same.
B
Yeah.
A
Do you buy snacks for a trip or do you raw dog and eat along the way?
B
If it were just me, like, what I did back in the day, I would raw dog and eat. And I love to stop and do all the different snacks at the gas stations, but with kids, they get cranky and honory. So we do both. We pack a snack bag to keep, you know, to keep us going down the road. And then eventually we'll stop at a gas station and then get snacks. So we do it. We're a hybrid now.
A
Okay. So I wonder if that's why I am the way that I am, because I've always gotten snacks, but then I'll still stop because the snacks that I got are not what I want in the moment.
B
Yes. Yeah. You see something to hold you over.
A
Yes.
B
Yeah.
A
But I think it's because my parents did the same thing that you guys did because they always had snacks for us, but we always wanted something. Because you're on a road trip, you want something that's not in the car.
B
I don't want just apples and cheese sticks and. And pirates booty. I want some other stuff.
A
Yep.
B
Yeah.
A
But my fiance, on the other hand, he never. They never had snacks packed, so they would just eat all the other dog.
B
Okay. Yeah.
A
And so he's always like, why do we. An entire bag of snacks?
B
It's also to save money too. It's smart because you don't have to spend as much money because you brought snacks from home.
A
Yes.
B
So it also is a little.
A
I like to think that that's true.
B
Yeah.
A
But I still spend a lot of money when I'm.
B
True. Yes. Yeah. It ends up happening. Yeah.
A
Was your fiance. It was your. Not fiance. Your wife.
B
You have fiance. I'm married.
A
Your wife. Your wife the same way. She do things the same way as you like, where they'd have snacks and then.
B
Yeah, they were even more conservative. They wouldn't even stop for snacks. As they're growing up, they only did whatever they brought with them, whatever came them. They never stop for anything.
A
See, isn't that funny, the different ways that we were raised or brought up. Road trips specifically.
B
Oh, yeah. For us growing, we didn't bring our family, didn't bring crap. We were stopping at McDonald's. It was like, we couldn't wait to get to the first stop to go to McDonald's and get whatever, you know, whatever Happy meal.
A
So now it's almost like you guys have done a happy medium.
B
Yeah, definitely.
A
Between the two of you.
B
Like, we don't need to stop. We bring a bunch of apples and stuff, and it's better and it's healthier. Blueberries, blah, blah. I'm like, yeah, but, like, I want to get out of the car and stretch and get gas and walk around and check out the snacks. And she's always like. When I go into the place, she's like, don't spend too much money. And I'm like. I'm like. I'm like, who cares? She's like, yeah, but we're on a budget, and we're trying to keep the money for the trip of where we're going. I'm like, all right, fine. That's how she gets me.
A
She's still keeping you on track all these years later.
B
I know. Yeah, she's trying. She's trying. But then I give her those puppy dog eyes, and she lets me have whatever I want.
A
So it really works out for both of you guys there.
B
It does, yeah. Yeah.
A
Do you drive in the fast lane often or never at all?
B
Fast lane often. Because I'm usually like, I'm going. So I would say a lot of times the fast lane. Yeah. It's very rare that I'm in the chill lane unless I'm so early to something, and I'm. And then I'm just trying to kill time. Then I'll go in that lane. But nine times out of ten, I'm booking it. I'm trying to get home or trying to get to where I'm trying to go to see.
A
But now, that counteracts your patience of the train.
B
It does, but the train you. Nothing you can do about. It's one of those like. Like. It's like the laws of physics or average. Whatever the hell it is. Right. You just can't. There's nothing. There's nothing you can do about It, I guess the laws of the universe, it's there, it's stopping you. Nothing you can do in driving situation. There is something you can do. You have, you have options of a slow lane or a fast lane. No options with the train.
A
But if you live in Nashville, Tennessee specifically. They're all the slow lane.
B
Yes, exactly. Yes. They're all the slow lane. Oh, yeah. Or somebody who's going, who is in the slowing pops into the fast lane and then slows down. You're like, what are you doing? And they're so, so adamant to get in that fast lane. Like thinking that they're going to start going fast and then they don't. And you're like, oh, okay, listen.
A
And I'm with you. I, I'm a fast lane rider all the way. Like, I will do everything I can to get into the far left lane because that is where I exist.
B
Yeah.
A
But let me tell you, the worst driver in the history of life is the person who cuts you off.
B
Yeah.
A
And proceeds to go slower than they were going before.
B
Yeah. You're like, what is the point of this?
A
So you cut me off to make my life harder.
B
Yeah. Stay where you were. You were fine where you were. You were. So you were where you were supposed to be and now you came over here. It's like a magnet. They have to, like, they immediately have to get on the left lane. It's like, quit being so simple minded and stay where you're supposed to be.
A
It is, I'm telling you, like, every time it happens, I'm like, there's some kind of karma that is coming back to me right now. And I try and like, remember that it's karma.
B
Like, what is it?
A
It has to be. Otherwise nothing about that situation makes sense to me. Why would you. If I happen to get close to cutting somebody off, I'm speeding up. I'm trying to not act as if I was cutting them off because that is not my intention.
B
It's a common courtesy of the fast lane.
A
Yes.
B
Yeah.
A
But if you, if you get over and you go slow. I don't understand. I don't understand the brain.
B
I don't get it either. Yeah. I don't understand the concept of why you do that.
A
Scuba. I was on the road the other day and I saw a guy flash his gun at another driver.
B
Oh, my God.
A
So let me tell you, the situation that happened.
B
That's. That's the one thing that scares me about living in places like this is because everyone's a damn sheriff.
A
Oh.
B
They all Got a gun. They're all walking around like they're. They're the freaking owners of the law. Stop it.
A
This is exactly what happened. And you want to talk about cutting off. So my friend was driving, thankfully, because she's a little bit more slower pace than I am. I'm kind of the fast driver. But we're in the far right lane and a car from the middle lane just zips over and cuts us off.
B
Yeah.
A
And does exactly what I just said. They start going slow and they're kind of driving erratically. They're going in between lanes and just not. Not okay, probably. Well, then there's another merge lane that's coming and a car cuts them off. Heaven forbid this car gets cut off even though they cut off us.
B
Exactly. Instant karma.
A
Instant karma. And you thought the erratic driving was happening before. It gets worse. Now he's weaving in and out of these and. Sorry, I assume it's a guy. I don't know, but I'm assuming it's a guy. And he's weaving out of the lanes, in and out. And he's trying not to let this car get over. The car's trying to get over that kind of. So the car finally does make it over into the middle lane. The guy continues to follow him to the middle lane. Then the guy obviously realizes that there's something happening, I'm sure. Tries to get in the far left lane. The guy follows him again, but cuts him off from getting over. Like how There wasn't a crash. Yeah, I have zero idea. But as he, like, cuts him off to get into the far left lane, the guy sticks flashy silver thing out the window.
B
Oh, my God.
A
And you just see the other car, like, pull back, almost like, hands up, like, I'm out. I don't want to do this. I don't know what's going on. Not realizing, like, this car had no idea. Yeah, right. Like they were just trying to merge into the lane. Yes, they cut him off, but it was emerging situation that's always dicey. Yeah, but this guy was mad when he was the one who cut us off originally that somebody else cut him off enough to flash his gun.
B
Ridiculous. Dude, that's so stupid.
A
I was baffled. And I was literally go the other way. I don't care if it takes us longer. Like, we're not going to be here whenever something.
B
Because then. Because then you become a casualty of their stupidity.
A
Literally.
B
Either. Either through the gun or the dumb ass driving that they're doing. Yeah, then you're putting me at Risk. It's not worth it.
A
It was horrible. I've never seen anything like it in my life.
B
That's so stupid.
A
And there was national traffic. Like, it wasn't just. It was us three cars on the road. Yeah, it was packed. This was at like a afternoon. Almost going into that 5:00pm traffic.
B
Yeah.
A
Yeah, it was late. And so I have never witnessed something like that in my life. And now it has given me more patience because I don't want to be waved to gun at.
B
Exactly.
A
I didn't think that was real. You. You hear the stories.
B
No, I've seen people be crazy like that all the time. Or they'll, like, hold a gun from, like, at their. At their window. Like, they'll actually pass them or whatever. Or as they pass you, they, like, tap the. The gun at their window. You're like, really? You're really gonna shoot me over driving? Like, how stupid are you? And you shouldn't have that gun then. If gun laws and gun safety and all this kind of crap. Clearly you don't, because that is the most ignorant move ever.
A
Yeah. Why would you put everybody else at risk for just because you felt a certain way?
B
Get over it, dude.
A
I get it. Road rage. I have it. I get frustrated with you.
B
Did you get hit? Are you. Are you injured or are you. Shut up. Keep moving. Go.
A
My anger stays within me. In road rage, it doesn't care. Go to anybody else.
B
Like, even the horn. I used to. I used to, like, slam on the horn. People would do stupid stuff, and it would be like a. Just a beep, beep or like a beep. Like, what the hell, dude? Now my wife's like, don't use the horn anymore because people have guns around here.
A
Yeah.
B
And I'm like, oh, my God, so stupid.
A
Well, I have proof for you, because I watched it in real time.
B
Yeah.
A
And he was not even afraid that he was waving in. Out the window.
B
Yeah. Did you call 91 1?
A
No, I ran away.
B
Oh, you should have been lunchbox.
A
I didn't want to be lunchbox in that situation. I just wanted to be out.
B
Yeah.
A
You know, like, go a different direction. Take us 20 minutes out of the way.
B
Yeah, I'm done.
A
I don't. I don't care. Because that's somebody who's clearly acting erratically. And if they somehow found out that I was the one who called the cops and we were false, I just.
B
You think they're gonna retaliate against you
A
in that particular situation? Yes. I watch them retaliate against Somebody for cutting them off when they do it. Somebody else.
B
I know. I know. So stupid.
A
You know, like, I watched the retaliation.
B
You're like, I'm out.
A
I know all that to say, but we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back with some more. Hopefully. You learned a lot about us. You kind of people. We are.
B
You learn. Well, is there, like, some sort of answer at the very end? Like, you are a number seven. You're this.
A
No, I was just talking about.
B
You learn through the answers.
A
Yeah. Just who we are as people. Because there's not a right or wrong answer.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
We're just people.
B
I don't know if we're, like, labeled as something now because we answered a certain way.
A
No.
B
Okay. All right. That was kind of boring.
A
Do you want to be labeled as something? You want me to give you a buzzfeed quiz?
B
Kind of like, you know, when you do those things back in the day, you'd answer a question and you'd be categorized as something, and that was who you were.
A
No, I'm not trying to add to the trauma that people already have. You know, just you can acknowledge who you are now. Okay.
B
Yeah. Yeah.
A
We'll be right back. Scuba. Something that I've realized is that it's kind of hard to keep a hobby as an adult.
B
Yeah. Because we have a lot of things going on in our lives. Yeah.
A
Do you have things around your house that are, like, graveyards of the hobbies that you've tried to pursue?
B
No, because my wife usually gets rid of stuff quick.
A
Oh, she doesn't even let you go back to it?
B
No. Well, there's one thing. I try to get back into shape, and I bought a pair of, like, dumbbells. Just one set of dumbbells. They're like, 25 pounds, and they just sit there in our. The bonus room, and every once in a while, I'll go touch them, but they're just there. And one time she kicked it with her feet. She's like, ah, stupid dumbbells. As I swear I'm gonna start working out. And then I don't. And so that's, like, the only thing we have that's a graveyard of that. And then I have a closet of collectibles of, like, all my shoes and things that I collect.
A
That's a graveyard.
B
Yeah, it's a graveyard, sight unseen. So you don't know about it until you open the door and go, whoa, there's a lot of stuff in there.
A
Do you just keep that door locked so she doesn't open.
B
Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I keep it locked and I put a lock on it so the kids don't go in there and mess around my stuff. Stuff. Because then that would piss me off.
A
Even though it's a graveyard and they're
B
not doing anything, well then they're gonna do something with. They're gonna. They're gonna bend things or break them or mess around with them. So that's not for them.
A
Is there a hope one day that you sell all that stuff or pass it down to them or like, what's your idea in your head with all that?
B
I think a little bit of passing down and selling. One of the biggest traumatic things that for me as like a collector that I didn't hold on to was all the Pokemon cards that I used to have back in the 90s. Because now I'm looking at the value of the ones that I had that I would sell for like 50 bucks or back then it. $100 for a Charizard first edition. Like, whoa, 100 bucks. I'll take it. Now it's worth like $30,000. And I could have paid for my kids college or bought a brand new car or put a huge chunk towards our mortgage. And I'm like, oh my God. I had close to a million dollars worth of now worth of product, if not more that I just got rid of at the time was a lot of money, but now it's even more money. So now I guess I have this like terrible, awful anxiety of not holding onto something because in 20 years it could be worth a million. Do
A
there's trauma there, there's some drama.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
That's fair though. I mean, once you see. But it's also hard to predict what are the things that are going to come back are.
B
You know what I mean?
A
Like, who would have thought that Pokemon would have taken that turn? Now as I've gotten older and I've seen the thing, like kind of the habits that we follow. Like I think if you collected comic books, certain comic books, or if there's things that lasted the test of time when they were first around, I think they often come back.
B
Yeah.
A
But it's things that are a fad for like a quick moment in time that I don't think ever.
B
Yeah. Like Tamagotchi and like Furbies and Tickle Me Elmos was true. It was a fad.
A
Yeah.
B
Pokemon lasted for a long period of time. It had a lull, but then it came back because we were kids when it came out. And now we're adults that have money to. That's when you ever see these stories of people that are fighting over Pokemon cards. It's not a bunch of 8 year olds because that's what it was when we were kids. It was a bunch of 8 year olds and 10 year olds. No, it was a bunch of 30 year old, 40 year old adults who are now ruining it for the kids that were us. But now that can't even enjoy Pokemon because you get a bunch of these greedy ass adults fighting over Pokemon cars in Costco parking lots. It's disgusting.
A
But would that be you? So you could add to your collection if you still had your collection?
B
I would never fight though. I would never fight for it. And I didn't collect it because I liked it. I collected it because I knew that there was a value in it. I was never a Pokemon fan. I was a fan of the money that it would generate. I was a true fan of collecting sports related cards and memorabilia which those I have a lot of as well.
A
Are those making as much of a. They had a comeback for your buck?
B
I guess they had to come back in the pandemic because people were nostalgia nostalgic about those things. And so I bought, right at the beginning of the pandemic, I bought a bunch of like unopened boxes of like for example, a Tiger woods, his rookie year of golf. When those came out, they were like 50 to 75 a box and his card was worth 20 bucks. And then on ebay, because people were broke, I was buying, they were so cheap, there's like $10 for a box and now they're worth like 200 bucks. So there's a little bit of an, of a, you know, I guess equity in it. But my thinking is if Tiger woods dies or.
A
Oh dang.
B
Something happens. Yeah, something happens to him because he's in this crazy thing right now. But he's the Jordan of that sport. And I would assume that those items would go up in value. So I have a lot of Tiger woods stuff. So Tiger, Tiger.
A
You're watching him do all of his crazy things like accident.
B
Is he dead now? He's still alive. Damn it.
A
Those are your moments. And it's true. It, it's wild. The just memorabilia in general that goes up when somebody passes.
B
Oh my gosh.
A
Yeah, because like it. All of a sudden people feel like they're never going to be able to attain or a touch or something like that with that person.
B
Like Kobe was a great one. Kobe was, he was always worth a lot. But Then when he died, everything went like through the roof.
A
Oh, so you really hated me during Easy Trivia this week, didn't you?
B
What was the question?
A
Black Mamba.
B
Oh, Black Mamba. What the hell? It's freaking Kobe Bryant. What? Are you kidding me? What do you. What do you think it was?
A
I thought it was Michael Jordan.
B
No, Michael Jordan is just the greatest ever.
A
I know. Well, in all fairness, non sports fan.
B
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
I only know a handful. I do know Kobe Bryant's name.
B
Yes.
A
Nicknames are a lot harder for me.
B
Black Mamba. Like, come on.
A
And honestly, after it was said, I was like, oh, there was a sign that went up. Like somebody did a graffiti art of
B
black after he snake and everything.
A
Yeah, yeah.
B
LeBron James. The king. Whiny baby.
A
I try, I really try hard to understand sports trivia. Getting better. Yeah, I've gotten a whole lot better than I used to be. But there was once upon a time where I would not have even known any of those names.
B
Yeah. Who's the big Hurt?
A
The Big Herd.
B
The Big Hurt.
A
Hurt.
B
The Big Hurt.
A
Oh, baseball.
B
Oh, baseball.
A
Is that. I watched a movie on him. 42. Is that him?
B
No, it's Jackie Robinson.
A
Oh, 42 is Jackie Robinson.
B
Yeah, yeah. He's one of the one that changed baseball and allow, you know, basically helped for black gut people to come into the sport. Yeah, yeah.
A
Great movie.
B
Yeah. 42 is amazing. Yes. It also so crazy that I mean, there's still versions of it now, unfortunately, that people live that way and treating people, people like that just because of the way they looked. Like, how stupid is that?
A
I know. Like you just watch that movie.
B
Yes, it's a great movie. I think people are just fearful of things that are different and whatever. And also maybe they're afraid that these guys are going to come in and be better than them, which, by the way, they were. Yeah.
A
Okay, so who is the big Hurt?
B
Frank Thomas.
A
You were doing baseball.
B
Frank Thomas. Chicago White Sox.
A
I had never heard of that name.
B
Okay. Wow.
A
Frank Thomas.
B
Frank Thomas. He was freaking phenomenal.
A
Okay, give me. This will be fun. Okay, give me sports nicknames and I'll see if I can piece him. So that was Frank Thomas.
B
Frank Thomas. The big her.
A
The big her. I'm trying. I'm gonna try and remember these.
B
Yeah, yeah. Okay. Grandmama, can you give me a sport? So Grandmama, actually basketball. He transcended the sport and became a pop cultural icon in TV shows because of his character, Grandmama. And he was featured in, I believe like Family matters for a Couple episodes. And they would use him a lot on sitcoms and TV shows as Grandmama. But he was a basketball player, and randomly. Homeboy followed me on Instagram the other
A
day, and I was like, yeah.
B
And I was like, holy crap. He followed me on Instagram like he knows who I am. This is crazy. He followed me unsolicited, and so I was like, oh, my God, this is crazy. This guy is like a freaking legend in the sport. Sport. Play basketball in the 90s. I'll even give you another hint and play for Charlotte Hornets.
A
Okay.
B
And even the Charlotte Hornets were a pop cultural phenomenon because of their jerseys and the way they looked in the 90s. They were like a thing.
A
Okay. And I would definitely know this name.
B
Maybe. I don't know. I mean, I would think if you watch TV of the 90s, like Family Matters and stuff like that.
A
Not. I mean, I was pretty young. Was he on Full House ever?
B
I think he was on Full House too. I feel like he, like. I feel like he did, like, a run for a minute there because he was so popular in the mid-90s.
A
The only thing I'm thinking of is Shaq, but I don't think it's Shaq.
B
No, that's. That's Shaq Diesel. Diesel. Yeah.
A
That's an easy name.
B
Superman.
A
Diesel.
B
Superman.
A
Superman is shocked.
B
Yeah. Superman.
A
Who's Grandmama?
B
Larry Johnson from the Charlotte Hornets.
A
I would not.
B
Oh, my gosh. Wow.
A
Okay, so Grandmama is Larry Johnson. We've got.
B
He would look up. He would. He would dress in a gram. You should look it up. He would dress in a grandma outfit. Like, he would have, like, the wig. It was almost in the era of. And I almost wonder if maybe Eddie Murphy was inspired by this when he did Nutty professor and all that.
A
Oh, I'm seeing the commercial of him.
B
Yeah, he's Even commercials. Like, it was a whole thing. It was such a. It was such a moment, him in that character. I don't know. I don't know the root of it and why he did it, but it was always this big. It was a big deal.
A
Wait, did he inspire What's Eddie Murphy? No. No. What's the Robin Williams.
B
Oh, Ms. Doubtfire.
A
Yes.
B
Maybe you could have. I don't know. Who knows?
A
Okay.
B
Because he was such a big, huge thing in the early 90s when all those things were coming out.
A
Yeah. Okay. So Grandmama Larry Johnson, the big hurt. Fred.
B
Frank Thomas.
A
Frank Thomas.
B

B
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
Okay, give me two more.
B
Is that all we got off the top of my dome without looking it up? I can't think of any more.
A
Okay. See, I did. I did really bad at it.
B
Yeah, yeah. It's okay. It's all right.
A
It's honestly as if they do transcend truly pop culture wise. Like, in the pop culture that I've been around, I know them.
B
There's another Superman in basketball.
A
There's another super.
B
And it was in the 2000s. Also played for the Atlanta Magic and was their center.
A
Wait, is that.
B
Oh, so it wasn't Shaq.
A
Is he a little guy?
B
No, he's a big dude.
A
Dang.
B
It was their center, so he's big. And then he became a big deal because then he was all over. He was played for the Lakers. He did almost the exact same thing Shaq did. Orlando to la, then became like a pop cultural thing. And it was in, like, TV shows and movies and then. And yeah, he's. I think he's also, like, a big deal on movies, on Instagram.
A
Basketball is my hardest one, I'm not gonna lie.
B
Oh, really?
A
Basketball is the one that I just. We didn't have any version of a basketball team in Kansas. We don't have one here.
B
Yeah.
A
Everywhere I've been, I've just never. Basketball is not okay. So that's what makes it hard. Basketball is really difficult for me. Okay.
B
I'll just tell you. Dwight Howard. Dwight Howard. Oh, wow.
A
Okay, wait, he's not the one that's married to a famous singer, is he?
B
He. No. No, he's not.
A
That's also where I do really well.
B
That's Sierra. That's Russell Wilson.
A
That's Russ.
B
That's football. Yeah, yeah.
A
When they're married to somebody famous, then, you know, I know their wives.
B
Okay.
A
Yes. So then I know that.
B
Okay. Yeah, yeah.
A
Okay. So what was his name?
B
Dwight Howard.
A
Dwight Howard.
B
He was. He was. And maybe I don't know if it was, but he. In the slam dunk competition, he put on a Superman cape and then, like, dunked over a person. It was like a big deal in the early 2000s.
A
Okay. Superman. Yeah, I like it. I learned a lot. Here we got Larry Johnson, Frank. Why can't I remember his name?
B
Frank Thomas.
A
Frank Thomas.
B
Yeah.
A
Dwight Howard.
B
Yeah.
A
Is there another one? I learned. No.
B
I mean, Kobe Bryant and, you know Shaquille o'. Neal.
A
Yeah, Shaquille. So he's also Superman.
B
Yeah, he was the original.
A
The original. And then Dwight Howard is like a.
B
It was like Superman 2, he was, like, paying homage to him because it was like, he also was Orlando and was, you know, a big deal. So it was kind of like a second coming of Superman.
A
Okay. I feel a lot more well versed in NBA, and I would love to. I've never been to an NBA game.
B
Really?
A
Never been.
B
Oh, wow.
A
I told you. Like, I've just never been around it.
B
Oh, my gosh.
A
You know where I want to go, though? Where is the Knicks game?
B
Oh, Madison Square Garden.
A
But do you know why?
B
Why?
A
How to Lose a guy in 10 days.
B
Oh, my God. Was. It wasn't Godzilla. Okay.
A
It was how to Lose a guy in 10 days, which also, like, I had that moment. We were watching Batman. The Dark Knight series.
B
Yeah.
A
And. And my fiance was freaking out because it was at the Steelers stadium. And, like, he got to tell me that whole fun fact about that. I was like, I watched that movie. I had no idea. I thought that was a fake stadium.
B
No, no, no. That's all Pittsburgh. The whole thing was shot there.
A
Yeah, yeah. Like, I see again, once you connect me with pop culture, movies, wives.
B
Yeah, Yeah.
A
I start to understand the athlete side.
B
Yeah. Msg, that's pretty legit. I've never been there myself either. I've always wanted to go to msg. Like, it's one of my bucket list places to go, see, See.
A
But we have different reasons for wanting to go. You, because you're a major basketball fan. Me, because Hadl's the guy. Kate Hudson, Matthew McConaughey.
B
Never seen it.
A
You haven't seen how to Lose a guy in 10 days.
B
I think we've seen, like, bits and pieces here and there, but whenever it comes rom com, and my cousins would watch it and I would leave and go do something else.
A
I. I bet your wife has seen it.
B
Oh, of course. Yeah.
A
I. You should watch it sometime.
B
I know I should. I know it's a good movie. I'm sure it's a great movie.
A
It's a good rom com, but when
B
I was a kid, when it came out, I was like, stupid. I want to watch something else.
A
That's fair.
B
I want to watch Batman or I want to watch basketball games.
A
Well, now you'll know why if you do watch it. Why? I want to go to the Knicks game. And you. Because. Big fan.
B
Yeah, exactly.
A
Actual big fan.
B
Yep. And Larry Johnson played for the Knicks, too.
A
Oh, that helps.
B
Hornets. Yeah.
A
So did Ron Baker. He played at Wichita Shockers. So that's the only thing.
B
There you go.
A
That one.
B
I know, and I think no One else does, though.
A
Wichita. Shout out. Wichita.
B
Yeah. Ron Baker. Only Baker I know is Vin Baker.
