Miles
Welcome back to Beta Radio podcast, Colts podcast, and all the Midwest. I'm Miles, you bet you got here with Ryan the T shirt guy. We're live. We're back in the studio. We're feeling good. And, guys, you're looking at weekend warrior over here.
Ryan
Okay.
Miles
Yeah, I hear. I finally now crossed over in dadhood and. Or adulthood, maybe even my neighborhood. I've crossed over into the weekend warrior status.
Ryan
You finally get that?
Miles
So all of those hardware store commercials talking about weekend warriors, those now apply to me. So I'm gonna pay extra attention to those, see where I can get a hot deal on wood screws and caulking. You know, I'm now in that target market.
Ryan
You're in the target market?
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
No deal.
Miles
In the market for some nice. For some nice.
Tyler
Yeah, we don't want shitty.
Miles
I found out this weekend if you're, you know, doing Pride, they make in aerosol cans now.
Ryan
Really?
Miles
Which is genius, because the worst part, if you don't have a gun, you have to, like, squeeze it out of, like. So they got the industrial tubes. Even the cocking guns kind of suck. But, like, if you just have a smaller thing, a tuba.
Ryan
I'm listening.
Miles
You gotta, like, squeeze it out by hand. Sucks.
Ryan
Yeah. Good for them.
Miles
But now they make it in aerosol cans. I gotta try it out.
Tyler
So it's like a WD40 can. What's got the long?
Miles
No, it's like a whipped cream ready whip.
Tyler
Oh, that's sweet, huh?
Ryan
Do you taste a little bit?
Miles
No, I have. I. I just saw it online. I gotta get it. So that's my weekend warrior project for this weekend. Get my hands on some aerosol.
Tyler
Yeah, you'll just be.
Ryan
All you got to do is clip one word here and there. And this is a legendary segment.
Tyler
Yeah, it could be about pheasant, could be about other things. It could be about diy, could be about Miles's weekend.
Miles
So anyways.
Jared
Or what he did last weekend.
Miles
Yeah, go ahead, guys. Ask me what I did this week.
Ryan
I did. I was like, did you get that bench stained or what?
Miles
I did not do the bench.
Ryan
Oh.
Tyler
I just got a year to do that.
Miles
So I put up some beams in my house.
Ryan
Load bearing or no.
Miles
Oh, God, no.
Tyler
Oh, Tyler, come on.
Miles
Can't risk the structural integrity on my craftsmanship.
Tyler
God.
Miles
So I. We did some beams, whatever. Fake beams, not real beams. I'll, you know, not going to pretend like I'm a. A real beam guy when I got fake beams, but I don't know, they may look like Real beams.
Ryan
No stolen beam valor in this podcast.
Miles
Correct. So I put up some beams. My thought was the reason why I didn't stay at the bench first is if I'm going to stain these beams, I might as well just do it all together.
Tyler
Two birds. You don't want to get type of deal.
Ryan
Enough stain for just the bench and then be. Yeah, I have to go get more stain your beams.
Miles
But the problem is that's when we put the beams up, we're kind of like. Kind of like how it looks without stain on it. So now I'm not staining. I have no plans to stain, so I don't know what I'm gonna stain that bench.
Ryan
You gotta seal it still.
Miles
Yeah, yeah, but sealer and stain are not the same. I'm aware the sealer on. You gotta rub the stain on. So it's a completely different process. Probably gonna. At a completely different time.
Tyler
Well, have you ever thought about. Have you ever looked at your bench and been like, I kind of like it without.
Miles
I'm starting to get to that point.
Tyler
Because if that's the case, then you don't have to stain it.
Miles
And if I wait longer, it'll look like reclaimed wood.
Ryan
Correct.
Miles
Right. The more dings that I put into it, the more character it'll have. It'll look like a reclaimed piece of wood.
Ryan
I actually saw this really cool. Cool to me, anyway, hack of like taking a small finishing nail and a small saw blade, and you can take a nail on the open end and go like this across wood. And then when you stain it, it looks like milled saw marks. So you could do that on your bench. Make it look like.
Miles
Make it shittier to make it cooler.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
You could also take a blowtorch and use a blowtorch around it. Just make it look like it's.
Miles
Yeah. I don't necessarily want to do a blowtorch with wood inside my house and it's already on the wall.
Tyler
Yeah, that's true.
Miles
Seems like not a good plan.
Ryan
Yeah, put a. Put some wet blankets up.
Tyler
I mean, we've done.
Miles
To be honest. I mean. But yeah, I mean, that's. That's all millennial decorating is in a house is just taking something that's good and intentionally beating the out of it to make it look old and slapping some pain or stain on it and being like, wow, look how good this looks now. Even though I intentionally made it shittier, our grandparents would be like, what are you doing to that very nice oak dresser? You. You. You took a. A wet Thing of iron or a hot thing of iron and put some burn marks in it. That's supposed to make it better.
Ryan
We're getting ahead of it. So when we do it up, it already looks old and up.
Miles
That's all it takes in order to do good. Millennial decor is just make it worse, wreck it, and then put gray paint on it. That's my favorite hobby is anytime someone's doing a DIY and they're like doing this thing, they're like making a dresser and it's like this cool looking wood, whatever, and then they paint it gray at the end. And I just immediately go to the comments. People like you, they lose their mind.
Tyler
Is gray the only color that's off limits or.
Miles
I don't know, there's a whole brigade of people that hate gray walls and anything.
Tyler
Huh.
Jared
Life is black and white to them.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
There's no gray. Gray area.
Miles
Yeah. No gray area.
Tyler
Did you have fun the whole time or did you. Was there.
Miles
God, no.
Tyler
Oh, you didn't?
Miles
Absolutely not. Oh, whoever has fun the whole time, they're doing a DIY project, there's a point in it where you get to like the last 15%, where you're like, ah, I'm so tired. I don't want to do this because this took me 12 hours one day to do. So hour number 10. I'm like, it's so sick of these. You're starting to. You're. You're starting. Starting to creep in where you're like, should I just try and finish this tomorrow? Yeah, it's already 8:30.
Ryan
There's net. You gotta finish it that day.
Miles
I know the help that my dad was helping me, and I was like, I don't want to make him come back tomorrow and he's already here, so let's just rip it off. But did.
Tyler
Did Anne help at all?
Miles
Not really.
Tyler
Okay, well, that's good. Yeah. Kind of a bad time. Even worse.
Miles
No, she's good.
Ryan
Leave the beams to the men.
Miles
Yeah, but yeah, it was just one of those things where you. I mean, obviously I like hanging out with my dad and doing a project. That part was fun. But the actual.
Ryan
Did you have to.
Miles
We almost ran out of wood. There was a point where we had this. This is another not fun part. We had to. Where all the. We were cutting in the garage. We had to sit down. It's never good when you're doing a project. You're up moving around, doing stuff and you have to pause and sit down and think about something. That's never Good.
Ryan
The sit down in the middle of any project just kills momentum.
Miles
Correct. But we had to sit down and be like, do we have enough wood? And we had to start being like, okay, we're gonna use this for this. This, for this. If we cut that one down at this, this here, then we should be able to use that over here. It was a. It was a tense situation for a.
Ryan
Bit, but it worked.
Miles
It worked out good.
Ryan
Did you have your dad hold the flashlight for you at any time?
Miles
I should have, but I did not.
Ryan
Missed opportunity. So I would have forced that scenario in there somehow.
Miles
Do you want to hold this for me?
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Point it up here.
Ryan
What are you doing? Pay attention.
Miles
So, yeah, I got some beams up, some stained. A lot of year left.
Tyler
So how'd the electric nailer work?
Miles
I knew he was. I intentionally didn't bring it up, so I borrowed Ryan's electric nailer. It worked great. Ryan.
Tyler
It's fantastic.
Miles
A little.
Tyler
It's fantastic.
Miles
My dad, I don't know if he sold or not.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
When we first got it, I wasn't pushing hard enough.
Tyler
Oh, yeah.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
And they weren't flushing up. And he was. He was kind of doing the. If I just would have brought my air nailer over, we wouldn't be having this issue. He didn't say that, but that's what his size said to me.
Ryan
Wait, so he offered to bring his air nailer, but you're like, no, Ryan's got this.
Miles
Cool. The electric nail is way better. At least a finish nail. Like, if you're doing a whole house, probably better to use. I don't. But why? Electric nailer works perfectly fine. I. It was four things on the battery. Only a whole 12 hour shift. Only one of the things went off the battery. Not like it. I had to switch batteries all the time.
Tyler
I mean, I think it's just. It's the convenience of not having nothing. Yes.
Miles
For the air compressor. Yeah.
Tyler
What if your kid's trying to sleep, you know?
Miles
Well, I'm pounding and nailing.
Tyler
Yeah, that's true.
Miles
But.
Tyler
But I mean, yeah, it was good.
Miles
Ryan, thank you for letting me borrow that.
Ryan
Did you give it back yet?
Miles
No, because I might use it for another project.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Merry Christmas.
Tyler
Oh, yeah. Mid Feb. I just needed back in about a month. About a month, so.
Miles
All right, done. Plus I also need to replenish your nails, so I. I couldn't find them at the hardware store.
Tyler
Nails are on the house?
Ryan
Well, no, they're in the house. In the beam.
Miles
They're in the house.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Folks, it's time for our prize picks of the week. And right now you can sign up with code YBR and get $50 instantly when you play your first five dollar lineup. You don't even need to win your lineup to receive the fifty dollar bonus. It's just guaranteed. When we're recording this, we still have one pick left. We have Justin Jefferson.
Tyler
More than 89 and a half and.
Miles
So far, guys, if you rode with us last week, you're feeling pretty good about your bet. So.
Ryan
Wish I could be there.
Miles
Oh yeah, yeah. We forgot Tyler was gone last week. We forgot to tell him what the lineup was so he didn't get to ride.
Tyler
You could have asked.
Ryan
Yeah, and if it was any other person that you guys, I would be rooting against you for excluding me.
Miles
Really?
Tyler
You could ask.
Ryan
I would know.
Tyler
It's two way street.
Ryan
I asked Jared who also wasn't in.
Tyler
Yeah, it's. That's.
Miles
So let's go, Ryan. You and I. But this week we're gonna go back to back weeks. We're gonna hit tonight we're gonna go back to back. I am gonna ride what worked for me last week. Derrick Henry. I think he's at 96 and a half rush yards. More than that. He had 186 last week. He's gotten more than that. The last four weeks are going to keep this thing rolling. They're going to ride him all the way to the Super Bowl.
Ryan
I like it. I mean quite literally, all of those things could happen.
Miles
Yeah. Just right. The. The Ravens are riding the back of Henry all the way to the Super Bowl.
Ryan
Hop on.
Miles
Everyone knows if you can run the ball in the playoffs, you're going to win.
Jared
It helps.
Tyler
100. I mean, so what do you got?
Jared
Jared got Khalil. Shakir more than 49 and a half receiving yards.
Miles
Tyler.
Tyler
Okay, I like it.
Ryan
Nico Collins. More than six receptions.
Miles
I kind of like reception. I might do that next week.
Ryan
Well, you gotta stick with Derrick Henry.
Miles
Well, yeah, if he, if he crushed again, I'm just riding him to the end.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, we're gonna ride him.
Ryan
You and the Ravens are riding Derek Henry.
Miles
I just. I. Apparently now I'm on the Ravens are winning the super bowl train by just accidentally saying that next week.
Jared
Go say Derek Hemor tree receptions.
Tyler
Yeah, I mean, I'll piggyback off the Ravens too. Lamar Jackson, more than 50.5.
Miles
Right. You can run the ball. You can win the Super Bowl. So that, that's what I've always said. You can run the ball. Late into the playoffs. So you're gonna win the damn ball. Run the damn ball.
Ryan
You need 147 rush yards between those two players. I know it is.
Miles
Tyler. That's so easy. How would you ever doubt that?
Ryan
I'm not.
Miles
Yes, you do.
Ryan
We're on the same lineup. I'm cheering for this.
Miles
So gu. Ride with us. Derrick Henry, 96 1/2 more rush yards. Nico Collins, more than six receptions. Khalil Shakir, more than 49 1/2 receive yards. And Lamb Jack, more than. More than 50 and a half rush yards. So good luck this week. And we're going two weeks in a row, boys.
Tyler
Somebody cooked here.
Miles
Jared, what do you got for us today?
Jared
Nightmare drinking buddy. Who would be your nightmare drinking buddy?
Miles
Tyler, who would be your nightmare drinking buddy?
Ryan
Okay. I think John Daly would be a nightmare to drink with. Like, list. I couldn't keep up with the man. It would be fun for 15 minutes to a half an hour, and then I'd be miserable because he wouldn't stop. He just drinks vodka straight constantly. And I'm like, I'm sitting with a legend. I'm not just gonna Irish. Goodbye, John Daly. Yeah, because this isn't.
Miles
This isn't nightmare drink with one person, one time, Right? This is your drinking buddy, right?
Ryan
Like every weekend with John Daly. Cirrhosis.
Miles
Yeah. He's one of those rare breeds that can. That can do it and still be living. You can smoke chain, smoke cigarettes, drink all time, still be living. The rest of us, me or hu. We can't do it. We'll die.
Ryan
We will.
Tyler
Well, my question is, why do you have to keep up with him? Why can't you just drink with him?
Ryan
He's my drinking buddy. So you're drinking, but you don't. If you have a drinking buddy, you don't just show up and watch him drink.
Tyler
No, but you're drink. You're just drinking at your own pace. You're just drinking together.
Miles
But, Ryan, you got to remember that when two people take a walk. When you take a walk with someone, either you adjust to their pace or they adjust to yours. And if John. You're not gonna make John Daly adjust to Tyler's pace.
Ryan
No chance in hell. No. And also, we're not drinking buddies if just one person's drinking. And also if we are buddies, he's gonna roast my ass for not trying to keep up with him.
Miles
I had a very similar one. Ryan or Tyler, I think a nightmare drinking buddy when he was alive would have been Chris Farley for very similar Reasons, I mean, the amount of money every month you'd have to pay the bar to replace all of the broken tables and chairs from him doing physical comed comedy bits of jumping on tables and breaking them. That would suck. He'd probably be wanting you to do drugs in the bathroom all the time. Yeah.
Tyler
He'd probably be trying to get you to do the truffle shuffle.
Ryan
Yeah. Also, there's never an opportunity for you to be the funny friend.
Miles
You're never gonna be the funny guy.
Tyler
Yeah, I think it's probably funny for the first, let's say hour, and then after that you're like, okay, like, things need to cool down a little bit here.
Jared
Start laughing.
Miles
Yeah, yeah, the gut hurts. Oh, stop.
Ryan
Yeah, Chris, just stop being so funny all the.
Miles
So I think, you know, he would be a great one time, but for him to be your drinking buddy would get exhausting. I feel like after a while.
Tyler
I think a nightmare drinking buddy of mine would probably be Shoe Nice.
Ryan
I don't know who that is.
Tyler
You guys know who Shoe Nice is?
Ryan
Jared.
Miles
No.
Tyler
I mean, honestly, with the reaction, it's obviously good. Shoe Nice. Is he. He's a guy on tick tock YouTube. He's an old, old YouTuber. And he would just. He just slams bottles of booze and slug.
Miles
Yeah, he take the little straw and put it and like point it out the outside of his mouth.
Tyler
Yeah.
Jared
Yeah. Like, it'd be a whole bottle of vodka or something.
Tyler
Yep.
Miles
Yeah, that would be a nightmare.
Tyler
I think he's done like 17 fives and shit like that. I mean, quite literally a nightmare.
Jared
Yeah.
Ryan
Is he alive?
Jared
Yeah.
Tyler
Oh, yeah, yeah. And it's. I. I don't know. He. I think he looks his age. I mean, it doesn't. It's not like he looks 75, but he's only 55. Right, right. Yeah, he. He went on a huge hiatus. I think everyone thought he was dead. But then he, like came back on TikTok randomly and now he's just back doing what he used to do again. Yeah, but like, how.
Miles
How does that even. Like, obviously you get ad revenue from Tick Tock, but Tick Tock would shut.
Ryan
You down if you're chugging.
Miles
But I feel like you get shut down, you're not going to get monetized. And what alcohol brand is going to be like, yeah, we'll sponsor you to promote over drinking.
Ryan
Hey, some people just do it for the love of the game.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Yeah.
Jared
I don't think he's rolling the dough either.
Miles
No.
Tyler
Yeah, he's probably making enough to buy his next bottle of booze for his next video.
Miles
Yeah. Honestly, a great sponsor form could have been one of our first sponsors. The deer bong.
Ryan
The deer bomb.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Or the bev buckle.
Miles
Or the Bev buckle would have been great for. For shoe night.
Jared
He does need a sponsor.
Tyler
He does?
Ryan
Bad.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, he's been doing.
Miles
Trust me. He put out a video asking for people to send him sponsors.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, he could use some help.
Miles
Yeah, that would be a nightmare because what do you do? You know, like, you quite. You. You quite literally can't do what he does.
Tyler
No, I. I would probably. I would show up, just.
Miles
Hey, that would be funny. You're drinking with your shoe. Nice is drinking Buddy. So you try to do what he does, but he just takes a 175 or something. And you just take a shooter and put like a little straw in it and just do the 1 ounce shooter. That would be a way to keep up with them and still be a part of it.
Ryan
Yeah, you just do some camera magic. Like hold fish way out there. You hold the shooter way out there. Tip it up.
Miles
Yeah. You're in the front of the frame, he's in the back of the frame. They look the same size.
Tyler
Yep. That's actually not a bad idea.
Jared
But then he'll do girl stuff like, you know, a whole tube of toothpaste.
Miles
Yeah, yeah.
Ryan
Stuff like. Guys, I've told you guys about toothpaste Paul before, right?
Tyler
No.
Ryan
So our neighbor, one of our neighbors growing up, got his license taken away from drinking and driving way too much. And so he just ride around the neighborhood on his lawnmower can, and he'd keep a tube of toothpaste in his front pocket. So if he ever got pulled over on his lawnmower, he'd eat some toothpaste to cover his breath.
Miles
That is crazy.
Ryan
Holy toothpaste Paul.
Miles
I like that. No, I don't like that. But like his commitment to being a.
Ryan
Drunk, he always had a trailer hooked up to his lawnmower for some reason.
Miles
You never know when you come across something on the side of the road.
Tyler
Yeah, you might as well start picking cans up or something.
Ryan
We lived in the country too. This is like he was a half a mile away from me and another half a mile away from my neighbor Buddy. And so every time I'd go to his house, I'd have to go buy toothpaste Paul's house. And he'd be putzing up and down the gravel roads.
Tyler
Easy to shop for when it comes to Christmas or Birthday or anything like that. Just get him a whole. Just a whole pack of toothpaste.
Ryan
Here's your Aquafresh poly.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Jared, what about you?
Jared
This is more of a type of person. It's kind of hard to describe. It would be like people are way too proud of where they're from person. So it's like when you're at a bar, drag with somebody, like they're from, like, Wisconsin.
Miles
Yeah. Like, I went to college with a guy from Texas and he had a. He had a tattoo of Texas on his calf.
Jared
And then they compare everything to Texas or Wisconsin.
Ryan
Used to. The college. Like, I played football at college. Some kid from Washington. And he wouldn't shut up about Seattle.
Jared
Yep.
Tyler
That is. That's a true statement.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Yep. Yep. That's a very true.
Jared
You'll be like, at this bar, like, well, this. There's this one bar like this, but better.
Miles
And see it.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
This reminds me of like a shittier version of Cowboy Rons in Seattle.
Ryan
That's another terrible person. Just the one upper.
Jared
In general, it is one up smid ship. But I think people are just way too proud from where they're from.
Ryan
Yeah.
Jared
Just hate it.
Ryan
I also think it'd be a nightmare being drinking buddies with Aaron Rodgers. Just a lifestyle that I would get annoyed with.
Miles
I don't know. I feel like he'd be better drinking than when he's sober.
Ryan
No, but just every weekend having to listen to a new conspiracy theory or hear about his.
Miles
But that's what you do when you drink with your buddies. You get together it just. And talk about conspiracy theories.
Ryan
But.
Miles
But let me finish. He's just serious about them and you're not. But that's fine. It's all the same.
Ryan
No, I was just. Because I think that makes it completely different. Because I'll bounce conspiracy theories off with you in a car ride. But the second I think you really believe something absolutely off the wall is like, it's awkward.
Miles
Like what?
Ryan
Like. Like, okay, think about flat Earther Jack that used to work in the warehouse. I love talking flat earth with people because I think it's hilarious. But he believes it, and it's just so awkward.
Miles
Yeah, but you were saying that this Conspiracy theories that I believe that.
Ryan
You know, I'm saying it would. If I just thought you believed it, I'd be like, all right, this is weird.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Would you rather drink with them or go on an ayahuasca trip with them?
Jared
Good question.
Ryan
With Rogers.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Like, I'd rather go on one ayahuasca. Trip with Rogers than be his drinking buddy every weekend.
Tyler
Yes. Your ayahuasca acquaintances, not Iowa buddies.
Ryan
Bingo. I would rather be his ayahuasca acquaintance than his drinking buddy.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Nightmare. Drinking buddy for me would be Andrew Huberman. Do you know who I'm talking about? He's the guy that's been going on the podcast, Huberman Labs. He's all about you gotta breathe through your nose and not your mouth. So he, like, pushes the hostage tape. Do you know what I'm talking about? Yep. So the whole time be sitting there drinking, I'd be, like, just making sure my mouth was closed.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
But then I'm not talking because I'm worried about if my mouth is open talking right now. He's gonna know that I'm breathing through my mouth currently. And then I'd just be overthinking it. Then I'm gonna be thinking about how much he says that beer is bad for you and all the other stuff. And I was just. I wouldn't be able to focus.
Ryan
I mean, just.
Miles
I just be the whole time, be like. Feel like I'm disappointing my dad.
Ryan
What's his drinking gonna even be?
Tyler
Well, I was gonna say.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Is he even drinking? Is he just. Is he just coming to hang around?
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
Is he even eligible?
Miles
Yeah, I guess I picked someone who probably doesn't drink as a drinking buddy.
Tyler
Probably tequila, if anything. Just tequila on the rocks.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Then you start, like, inhaling your drink through your nose. You're like, I don't want to open my mouth right now. Tape over my mouth.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Next morning.
Miles
No, you're snorting your whiskey. 7. Because he can't open your mouth. Yeah.
Tyler
Quite literally going for a snort.
Jared
All he wants to drink is, like, black rifle coffee.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Espresso martinis. Hold. Hold the martini.
Miles
Oh, yeah. Because he's the other guy. It's like talks about you need to get sunlight in your eyes within three minutes of waking up, and you're just thinking about, like, God, if I have one more of these, I am not gonna see the sunlight tomorrow at all, because I'm not gonna get out of bed, and I'm not gonna bring my shades up in the room.
Ryan
He says, you need to get sunlight in your eyes.
Miles
They can just basically go outside and see sunlight.
Ryan
You need to go outside with half an hour after waking up and stare at the.
Miles
Like, you just need to go outside essentially.
Ryan
Okay.
Tyler
Or turn the lights on. If you wake up before. Touch some grass, Put your. Your phone flashlight right in your eyeball.
Miles
He also just recommends that the best workout plan if you're fat and you just want to lose weight is just get on a stationary bike and just pedal as hard as you can for as long as you can until you literally can't pedal anymore. If you just do that every morning, you'll just get fit, which you. But it just sounds so terrible.
Tyler
I mean, it sounds sweet though, because you're like, what, you're gonna pedal for a minute?
Miles
Yeah, it's when you start. I suppose I should try it. That should be my challenge. You should just get on a bike and just pedal as hard and as fast as I can for as long as any resistance. I don't know.
Ryan
I'm turning the resistance all the way up. So I only have to be on there for a few minutes.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
I do it on elliptical to where if you get it going fast enough, you can just like ride out the momentum.
Miles
Yeah. You should be thinking about all that stuff and then all of a sudden you just, you know, ruins it.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Like anyone that reminds you of living a healthier lifestyle. Nightmare drinking buddy.
Jared
Terrible ignorance is Bless.
Miles
What about you, Ryan? Anyone else?
Tyler
Not so much a person, but just this. Well, something in general. The person who counts, who's counting their drinks or counting their beers and letting you know about it.
Miles
It.
Tyler
I would say that that's like one of my biggest, like, cringe moments is when someone is talking about how, like, it's almost like how sweet it is that I've had six beers already. It's not even 7:00 right now.
Ryan
Number five. 15 minutes in.
Tyler
God. Or they're like.
Miles
Or no, they're. It's way worse when they're counting your drinks. That's.
Tyler
I mean, that's.
Miles
Yeah, I'm on five, you're on two. What the man.
Ryan
That's how I feel like John Daly would be to me.
Miles
No, I don't think. I think daily. Be chill about it.
Ryan
I don't know.
Miles
He doesn't ever talk about drinking, but.
Ryan
If we are buddies, he would be on me about.
Miles
I guess when he did that thing with Bryson de Chavo, he was kind of giving him about not drinking. Yeah.
Tyler
They just slugged a bunch of chocolate milk. Apparently he drinks a load of chocolate milk. That man hates John Daly.
Miles
Yeah. So much it just despises it. He might have rabies. He hates water so much to kind.
Tyler
Of piggyback off that. Also, like the guy who. He's counting his beers. He's also keeping his empties right next to him and he like, doesn't want to throw them in the tr.
Miles
In.
Tyler
In the trash.
Miles
Because built the tower.
Tyler
Yeah. He needs to know how many beers. So if someone does ask, it is kind of sick.
Ryan
Wizard staff.
Miles
There has been times when we. I meant, did you remember that one event? I don't remember.
Jared
What?
Miles
I don't know if it was an event or we just went out after something when we were on the road. We had like a table that was literally just full of empty beers. Do you remember that table?
Ryan
Was it.
Jared
Oh, is that New Year's Eve?
Tyler
Yeah, I think that was new.
Miles
Yeah, that was. I mean, it was, you know, kind of cool, but it was because we were doing it as a group.
Ryan
Correct.
Tyler
A team effort's way better. That's acceptable.
Ryan
New Year's Eve in Green Bay.
Jared
Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tyler
God, that was sick.
Miles
Where. That's where Jared become best friends with Ginger Jesus.
Tyler
Carrot Top Jesus.
Miles
That is the happiest I've ever seen Jared in my life.
Jared
Oh, Dear's Eve.
Miles
It's my favorite holiday. I would say, like, there's no disrespect to your wedding, but you're way happier that night than you were.
Ryan
Did you invite him?
Tyler
Yeah, his breast stunk too. That's one thing I always bring out of.
Ryan
He was born before toothpaste.
Miles
His teeth are 2000 years old.
Jared
Like bread and wine is, bro.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah, probably, yeah.
Miles
You breath would smell. Two of your only diet was bread and wine.
Ryan
Sometimes fish.
Tyler
Yeah, mix of fish in there once in a while.
Jared
That pesky diet, I.
Ryan
It's similar to you guys. Like one that's just a vibe. It would be a really awful to be drinking buddies with the guy that always forgets his wallet. Like everybody has a friend that's just like, oh, dude, I forgot my wallet. Can you get me this?
Miles
I'll get you next time.
Tyler
Yeah. How far into it do they usually realize how they forgot it?
Ryan
They forget it on purpose. They're broken Broker cheap.
Tyler
Yeah, that's why you gotta hunt the deals out, though. That's the thing. It's like, you know, penny taps. Yeah. Like, I don't know, you buy a bucket, you get a discount on the beers. And then your buddy's like, I'll just take the discounted beer. I'll take one of these discounted ones.
Miles
I think nightmare drinking buddy would be anyone that's on a reality TV show. So, like, you know, we're talking any, you know, selling Sunset, the Real Housewives, like anyone who's a character on that. Because, I mean, every scene of those Shows is them going out for drinks and people crying.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
It's like that's the whole show. Hey, we're gonna go out and have a good time. Even though we know someone's gonna get really pissed off and just start crying and leave and storm out of there. Just think about every time you go out to drink, you know that someone's gonna get upset about something that doesn't matter. Cry and leave. I love. Think of how much of a disaster that would be every time you go out to drink.
Ryan
Some sort of chest bumping match too.
Tyler
I love observing those situations and not being in them.
Miles
The bartenders being a little snippy with me.
Jared
Then close a gasket.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Childhood trauma. Yeah. It could be sort of trauma.
Miles
That would suck because there's also. We know people like that. And if you have the. But it. Like if it was just your drinking buddy. The best is when this is happening in a larger group of people and you don't have anything to do with them.
Tyler
100.
Miles
Watching the train wreck happen is kind of fun. It's.
Tyler
Yeah, it's.
Miles
You're. Yeah.
Tyler
You're watching the reality TV show Unwind in front of you.
Jared
Dinner at a show.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Yep.
Miles
Yeah. The Real Housewives of Fargo.
Jared
You know, that'd be awesome.
Ryan
I bet you it's been pitched.
Miles
Oh yeah. You know.
Jared
Debbie's a.
Miles
There you go. Jared. You nailed it. Yep.
Jared
My other one is Conor McGregor. He'd be a nightmare.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Yes.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Kind of like that. Going.
Jared
Getting in fights and just a drug addict.
Miles
Just the ego that's larger in life. Insecure about how tall he is.
Jared
Exactly.
Ryan
Like nightmare. His appearance in Roadhouse is not too far off of what he's like in real life. Drinking.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
For sure. I mean you're. You're walking on. You're walking on glass the entire time. You like, you don't want to say anything wrong or be like, you know, maybe pitch like, hey, maybe we could go to this spot or whatever. Like you're just sitting there silent.
Ryan
You're not drinking buddies. You're a drinking prisoner.
Tyler
Pretty. That's a great way to put it.
Miles
But the best is is that you've once. So we all know a guy that's like that just of have to watch what you say when you're drinking with them because you don't know how pissed they're going to get and want to fight. But then there's always one guy, other guy in your friend group that has the superpower that he can say whatever he wants to this guy, and he thinks it's funny and doesn't get mad, but if anyone else would say it, he'd go off the handle.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
I feel like that person is. Is always like non threatening in a fight too. Like, that's the guy who would. He. He would never fight anybody, nor could he like even put his fist up.
Miles
He's talk.
Ryan
He could talk his way out of anything.
Miles
Correct.
Tyler
Yes.
Miles
My uncle has this superpower and there was a guy we'd go hunting with that would. He was just. Would chronically get in fights all the time. And then my uncle could say anything he wanted to him and he thought it was funny, but he. You didn't think anyone else was funny. Whatever. So.
Tyler
Yeah. What's the secret to breaking the barrier down?
Ryan
So I got. It'd be a nightmare to be drinking buddies with Chris Collinsworth.
Miles
That's a guy who can slam some beers.
Ryan
I mean, I'm just.
Miles
Look at him over there.
Ryan
I. I'm sure he doesn't talk like that in normal life, but the information I have to go off of, he does. And that would suck.
Jared
Be like, ah, two for one beers. Name a better deal than that.
Tyler
What is guy? Refresh me. What's Chris Collinsworth on? Is he an NFL analyst?
Ryan
Yeah, he's a play. He's.
Miles
You know him?
Ryan
Yep.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
You know, you kind of look like him a little bit.
Tyler
Okay. Yeah, write that one down too.
Miles
Yeah, that's a guy you can slam.
Jared
Some beers drinking on the patio. Is there anything better?
Ryan
Now here's a guy that can't handle his booze. If you watch the curb outside here, right here circles that, that's where he's going to throw up. Watch this.
Tyler
Yeah. You talking like that Tyler reminded me of. You sound like Bob Mary. I think that'd also be a nightmare.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tyler
I mean, is that. Is there any more that we need to say?
Ryan
No, it's a great one.
Miles
Well, should we take a break, Jaren?
Jared
Sure.
Miles
Well, guys, we have a tong update for you. Ryan, what is it?
Tyler
The update's zero.
Miles
We have zero left.
Ryan
Oh, yeah.
Tyler
We went from what, 4,000 to zero. Three thou. 6,000.
Miles
I think at one point we had 12,000 tongs.
Tyler
Yeah, I think we did. I think we ordered 10,000 right away.
Miles
That's what it's gonna be. If we're doing this in 10 years, we're gonna be like, God, remember tong fiasco? 2024, we had 25,000 tongs. Then another 10 years. But we. Thousand tongs.
Tyler
We had to get rid of some guy last week bought 21 tongs. That was the only thing is. Or 21 tongs.
Miles
Why do you think he bought 21 and not just an even 20?
Ryan
I don't know.
Tyler
He's a 21 Savage fan. Or he's a Kevin Garnett fan.
Jared
Or his lucky number.
Tyler
Or it's his lucky number.
Ryan
Or he got it for a 21 year old's birthday. Here's 21 Tongues.
Tyler
Or it's his favorite year of his life. 2021.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
Could be any of those things.
Tyler
Could be anything.
Ryan
Cba.
Tyler
So the one thing we don't have, guys, is tomorrow.
Miles
Yeah. So if you. Again, it's same thing with our vests. We're. We're getting rid of the vest that we got, too. We're not making any more of this stuff. So if you want it, you gotta go there now and check it out at. Oh, you bet you dot com. Rip to the tongs. It feels good to get that off the balance sheet, though.
Tyler
Yes.
Miles
All right, Jared, what do we got next?
Jared
Worst things to do as a family.
Miles
I will say this. I think I would rather talk to a stranger about my feelings than my family.
Tyler
Okay.
Ryan
I'm completely on board with that.
Miles
I would much rather be sitting on a park bench and spill my guts to a stranger that I would sit around my family and talk about how we're all feeling.
Ryan
You are doing something good because you get to talk about your feelings, but you get the added benefit of never having to see that person ever again in your whole life.
Miles
Yeah. If I tell them, you know, I'm feeling a little insecure about this and that, they're going to just bring that up later.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
They're going to use it as ammo against you. And also, like the way that my family, the way we say, the way that we show love in our family is by making fun of each other and razzing each other. We don't tell them that we love them. That's weird. And it's uncomfortable and awkward. We just do it in other ways. Yeah.
Tyler
Like you'd rather talk about your feelings to Jared's mom than you would your own mom.
Miles
I'd rather do it with any of your moms, especially Tyler's.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Be really easy to spill my guts to Tyler's mom.
Ryan
Great listener.
Miles
Just great listener.
Ryan
Huh?
Tyler
Sorry, I don't know how to react to that stuff. I just follow what Tyler's doing.
Miles
Anyways, I think I'd rather talk about my feelings on this podcast than with my family. Yeah, but you guys are close second.
Ryan
Yeah, I don't think. I don't want to talk about my feelings with you guys.
Tyler
No, because you guys would all just make fun of me.
Ryan
Exactly.
Tyler
It's like, that's. This is the time where, like, I'm being serious, I'm talking about my feelings, and then I'm not just getting made fun of.
Ryan
Yeah. It's like, what the are you doing, Ryan? Stop that.
Tyler
Yeah, it's like, quit being a quiz.
Miles
Look, I think I'd rather spill my guts to some random Reddit user for sure. Yeah.
Tyler
Like, than with your own family r feelings.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
It'S just open form. You can just.
Miles
Just spill them. Spill the guts.
Ryan
Like, if I were to sit next to somebody at the airport and be like, I am just feeling really insecure about this part of my life, they would maybe not say anything, but that's probably. What if I said that to my dad, I'd get roasted into eternity.
Tyler
Yeah, you're a. Yeah.
Ryan
Like, well, it's just. Just suck it the up.
Miles
Yeah. And it's kind of easy. It's kind of the one things with your family, they kind of know how you're feeling anyways, so a lot of it needs to go on set. It's not that your family doesn't care about how you feel. It's just when you're not in a family that talks about their feelings ever when you do, it's just so uncomfortable that it's actually counterintuitive to talk. Your feelings.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah, it should be.
Ryan
Heightens the feeling you have.
Miles
Yeah. It actually makes you feel a little bit worse.
Ryan
Like, just add anxiety onto whatever you're feeling. If you're trying to talk to a family member about it.
Miles
Yeah. It's like, if someone starts talking about something serious in my family, there's like an internal timer in my head of like, all right, it's been too long that we've been talking about this serious topic. I need to now make a joke to break the awkwardness because this is getting strange and. And I know that that's my own issues of my. That I gotta work through.
Ryan
Right, but you're not gonna work them with your.
Miles
Not with my family. I'm gonna do it with Guy at the bus stop.
Ryan
Yep.
Tyler
Could you. If you try to prank, like, if you try to prank your family, you think you like.
Miles
I'd rather do it with the. The. If I'm going through, like a drive through, I'd rather do it through the speaker. That's actually. That's Great new business idea. You go and you just talk into a speaker to someone that you don't even see in a building. Like a drive through. And then you just pay whatever you think that the. The conversation was worth.
Ryan
Drive through therapy.
Miles
It's. It's basically like doing confession. I was gonna say behind a screen, you know, you don't see the priests, whatever. Same type of vibe.
Tyler
And I get like, you. You can call, like, you can call, like, therapists or whatever and tell them about your feelings, but there's something about just being in your vehicle.
Miles
Stop. Yeah.
Tyler
It's just you're more comfortable. You're in a good environment, and, like, no one's gonna hear you.
Miles
That's the. That's how I want to talk about my feelings. I want to be in the car by myself, talking to a drive through.
Jared
Speaker and maybe getting, like, a large fry right out.
Miles
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ryan
Real good.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Would be great to have afterwards, you.
Ryan
Know, Forgive me, Ronald McDonald, for I have sinned.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Until, like, he's at the speaker and I'm behind him. Well, that's like you.
Miles
Yeah, yeah, that. That's the one downside of that is you kind of got to yell, you know?
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Miles
I don't know. Me and my brother kind of just been on the rocks lately. No, on the rocks, the vice you hear back is just. You know, I think you. I think you should just talk to him about it. I don't know if that's the right move or not, but you want. You want some catch up with the.
Ryan
Neither. No.
Miles
And then you're like, I feel so much better. Yeah.
Ryan
Did you just say I need to catch up with the guys? You're so right. Thank you for this.
Miles
So in. In a roundabout way, talking about your feelings with your families is the worst.
Ryan
Yeah. I went a completely different route. I think bowling with your family sucks ass.
Miles
Bowling?
Ryan
Bowling.
Tyler
I mean.
Miles
Yeah, I like that one. Do explain.
Ryan
Because, like, bowling with your buddies and stuff is one thing. I think I just don't like bowling that much. But bowling with your family, it's like, what do you do? You talk to grandma when she throws it in the gutter? No, I could talk to my friend when he messes up.
Jared
Everyone's kind of playing shitty.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
But see, and, like, my family's competitive too, and it just kind of like. Yeah, if someone's doing good, I'm not gonna cheer for my sister for getting a strike. I'm gonna get pissed.
Miles
Yeah, it's kind of just doing anything competitive with Your family never ends well.
Ryan
Y. I just hate bowling the most.
Miles
One thing I do like bowling with your family, though. So when you're out with friends bowling, the awkward walk back where everyone is, you kind of don't have that with your family, so that's one added positive. Whereas, like, when you're with your friends, you're like, try to got to act cool after hitting a strike. Whereas with your. With your family, you're like, yeah, like.
Tyler
How many times can you be cash about throwing a gutter ball? Like, we know you care because you've been playing it off for the last eight frames. Like, we get it.
Ryan
Bumpers also going to be way more likely to get pissed if, like, my. My sister takes the ball I've been using than if you were like. Like, hey, that's. That's my ball. Put that down.
Miles
And then you have to wait for it to all the way come back after she just bowled it. You know, you're just standing there with your hand over the little air vent. The score. Yeah. They're like, you're up. I know I'm waiting for my ball because she threw it.
Jared
My lucky ball.
Miles
You all of a sudden just turn into an angsty teenager or anything, anytime you're doing stuff with your family.
Tyler
I might. Next. If I. I mean, if I ever go bowling with my family, the walk back after my turn, I'm just gonna close my eyes.
Ryan
Just hope you don't trip on.
Tyler
I just. I. I'm pretending like no one is watching me at all.
Miles
That's what. That's what this famous saying is. Bowl like, nobody's watching.
Tyler
Boom.
Ryan
Love me or hate me, all you could do was watch.
Tyler
One thing I don't want to do with my family is sit through a sex scene of a movie.
Ryan
Oh, yeah, Great, Ryan.
Tyler
Does anyone actually know how to react? Or like. Like, do you just sit as still as you possibly can? Because if you move, then someone's gonna look and make sure you're not, like, you know, like, pushing your pants down or whatever. You popping bees during the sexy. No, this isn't about me. This is.
Miles
You're popping. You're popping in arbs. Apparent reason boners. This is just a general. This.
Tyler
This is not me. This is general me or general question. You know, what are you supposed to do?
Miles
You're adjusting your trousers while you're watching a sex scene with your family.
Tyler
See, I never said that. Now we're too. We're taking words in my mouth.
Miles
I. If I ever happens, I usually try and cut the tension Must be like, you know, like mom, dad, close your eyes. You know, you cut the tension a little bit.
Tyler
That's a good one. Yeah.
Jared
Otherwise, what are they doing?
Ryan
It's either you have to do that or you just.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
Nobody says a word. No one looks at each other. You just watch the scene, you move on.
Miles
Act like either you all feel comfortable and say. All feel uncomfortable and say nothing, or you just pick one person and make them uncomfortable. Like dad, what are they doing? And then he feels uncomfortable and everyone else does it. You know, just redirect all the awkwardness to your dad.
Tyler
Yeah. Like you can't fast forward. Because I feel like if you fast forward. Yeah. It's. I don't know why that makes it even more weird. But you're like, that just shows you're, you're not comfortable.
Miles
Your mom starts fast forwarding, you're like, I usually don't.
Tyler
This is the best part of the movie.
Jared
This is, this brings up one of my million dollar ideas. You know like that one app tells you want to go to the bathroom during a movie. They should have that but just for sex scene. So you know, like. Oh, so you can completely avoid that situation.
Miles
Should. It's a great idea.
Tyler
That is a great idea.
Miles
Well, they should just have an app that's like for. It's like Netflix, but just watching with your parents and it just cuts out.
Jared
Yeah. Okay.
Miles
Or it's just like it was a black frame and it just explains in words what happens. Like they had sexual intercourse.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
And they said this to each other and then they just move on and.
Tyler
Yeah. Moans or, or they just, they just like punch in like a, like a. The buffering wheel. And then when the movie you're like, oh, buffer. Yeah. Then it just, when it starts back up again, it's passive.
Ryan
They call it parent mode.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Because there's the, there's kid mode.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Right. What's funny? To us, it's parent mode. To our parents, it's kid mode. Yeah.
Tyler
Like, has your five year old, have you ever been in that situation with him? Like you're just. You've got a movie on that he's watching and something pops up.
Ryan
So not now that he's old enough. Like, I avoid all of the inappropriate stuff, but when he was like one and two, like I would watch normal.
Miles
She doesn't know what's going on.
Ryan
Yeah. So but like now I just, I can't. Like I try to watch Squid game. I'm like, I can't watch it with him around way too Many people getting their brains blown out.
Miles
Did you watch Squid Game, too?
Ryan
Yeah, I'm two episodes in.
Miles
Okay, when the smoke settles on that, we'll have to discuss Squid Game.
Tyler
I'm. I'm the same length. I. I don't know. I just. I. I can't. I'm not into it as much.
Ryan
It took too long to get back into the games.
Miles
The end of the season is just absurd. And that's all I'll say about that in a good.
Tyler
Can you tell me in a good way? Like, in your opinion?
Miles
I don't want to ruin it for you.
Tyler
Okay, so it's bad. Okay.
Miles
It's just absurd.
Tyler
Okay.
Miles
I think another thing I don't want to do with my family is, like, taking family photos. No one's ever come away from it being like, wow, that was so fun and pain. I'm really glad we did that.
Ryan
I think you're in the majority, but for some reason, my family does pictures. Right.
Miles
I think. Okay, how much do you guys care about your Christmas card?
Ryan
We don't do one.
Miles
There we go. If you care about a Christmas card, family photos are the worst. If you don't care about Christmas card, family photos can be good.
Ryan
Yeah. Because we.
Miles
And I think that's about what it is. And my mom really cares about a Christmas card. So.
Tyler
Yeah, it's like the person who facilitates the Christmas card and the addresses who you're sending to. It's like, if they come up to me, like, okay, I don't want to do it either. But this Saturday morning, we. We just. We got to go take pictures for the Christmas card.
Miles
But see, that's how it is. It's Terry, like, you just. It's always, we gotta go dig family photos.
Tyler
Nobody.
Miles
No one. We need to start making family photos like an event. Right. You go to a. You go somewhere, have some cocktails beforehand. You guys discuss how you're gonna smile, like all of that. Maybe get a game plan. It might work out better.
Tyler
You're saying hit the bar beforehand. I mean, everyone's gonna have that one family member, though. Just get paced. And then you're gonna have to Photoshop the red eyes out.
Miles
Well, so the. For example, this year we got. All of my family was together, so my mom was like, let's take a family photo. 1. We just don't have a great spot to take it inside. So then we all pile in there. We have to set a timer on the thing, and then we do it. And, you know, the kids aren't looking. My brother's Standing too far away. So then my mom's like, can we just photoshop him closer? We're kind of like, I know. It's not really how that works. The lighting's never good, all those things. So we did this whole family photo thing. And then my mom ended up being like, I'm just gonna do the. The photo of just the kids, the grandkids.
Tyler
He's a cop out.
Ryan
Hey.
Miles
So we didn't even need to do it. And it was a whole thing of like, everyone get back.
Ryan
Yeah, she punted on third down.
Miles
She really did.
Ryan
So we, we did family photos on vacation, and there's 17 of us on vacation. We did the two giant group photos right away, and that's all that they cared about. Then after that, it was just free for all. Kind of fun, actually, kind of photo.
Miles
Booth vibes a little bit.
Ryan
So like everyone, they split off in their own family groups. And my 2 year old was like, I'm going to be in every picture.
Miles
Well, that's the thing. If we took a family photo in a photo booth, my mom would just go, that's a great photo. Everyone looks like they're having a great time. It's not perfect, but it's a photo booth. But as soon as you got to line everyone up and everyone stands and smiles, it doesn't come out right. So maybe that's the move I got to trick everyone into being a photo booth vibe.
Ryan
Yep.
Tyler
Yeah. I mean, then you can get a photo with your stepbrother.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
Like technically not even your stepbrothers. Your dad, Dad's girlfriend's kid.
Ryan
Yeah, we, we were able to do all different family units, like my wife and my kids, like everybody together, me, my dad, and my sisters. And it was all done. We were done in 20 minutes. It was awesome.
Tyler
Would have been great if you're. If one of your sisters would have like taken your youngest, like your, your six month old, and like her and her husband, like pose with, with your kid in a photo and like sent that out Christmas card.
Ryan
So my two year old, My two year old, he took. He was in the big giant group photo. And then after that, everyone split into their own individual family units. And he didn't understand, so he tried to get in everybody's photos. So every couple has just themselves and then also a picture of them with my kid.
Tyler
Nice. I like that. Yeah.
Miles
But, yeah, I don't know. You're lucky, Tyler. That's. I. That's the, that's the kicker is if you care about the Christmas card family Photos. There's too much pressure.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah.
Miles
You know, it's like they moms act like the Christmas card is going to be seen by millions of people.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Even though they're only sending it out to like a hundred people.
Ryan
But like are people still. Obviously you guys are still doing. Chris, I got Ryan's. How many are Christmas cards dying or am I in the minority here?
Tyler
I hope.
Miles
I think so. I, I, turns out we're not New Year's cards people either. In my family, my immediate family.
Tyler
St. Patty's Day day. It might be St. Patty's Day or Valentine's Day.
Miles
Cinco de Mayo.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Get out that Memorial Day card.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Once I break out the Margaritaville machine, we'll do a Cinco de Mayo card.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tyler
That would be kind of funny if you just got a random like Cinco.
Ryan
De Mayo card, people would remember that more than 20 Christmas cards they get.
Miles
I'm gonna do a cigarette mile brag letter to everyone.
Jared
Do it all in Spanish.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
Hola.
Tyler
You could brag dual lingo or whatever's working for you.
Miles
Yeah. Just I don't know how you brag about like a 10 month old, but you do, you know, you just figure it out.
Tyler
Well, he loves chewing on stuff.
Miles
Yeah. He, you know, he hasn't said anything, but I can tell that he knows words.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
He loves giggling.
Ryan
He recognizes it like English teacher.
Miles
When we, when we say someone's name, he looks at them. Them. So you tell me if he's smart or not.
Tyler
My grandma said he was one of the smartest 10 months old that she's ever been around.
Miles
So my mom said they, she's never seen a baby hold something like that before and it was a big deal. My mom's seen a lot of babies.
Tyler
He just happened to be holding something in his left hand and my mom is, she's, and he's left handed.
Miles
We think, yeah, we think he's a left.
Tyler
Yeah. You think he's lefty?
Jared
Actually is.
Tyler
Yep.
Miles
Yep. And maybe in the brag letter they always have like little smaller photos littered throughout it. Maybe get one of him with like a baseball bat and just says future major leaguer below. Slugger. Yeah.
Ryan
Several scouts at daycare this year.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
We didn't lean this bat up on him for the picture. He just put it like that himself.
Ryan
He's a natural. I absolutely hate shopping with my family. Even just my immediately immediate family like wife and kids. It's a nightmare every single time.
Tyler
I did have grocery shopping, so I'll loop that in with you, dude.
Ryan
Shopping just in general with family sucks.
Tyler
I think that's a good solo.
Miles
I don't know if I've ever been shopping with my family other than just my mom and my brother.
Ryan
Don't.
Miles
Growing up.
Ryan
If you. If you can avoid it, do so.
Miles
Although shopping in Mexico with your family is kind of fun. Fun. I go to like the little shops where they're selling trinkets.
Ryan
But vacation doesn't count.
Tyler
What'd you say, pharmacia?
Jared
Yeah.
Ryan
Vacation doesn't count. You're. You're sightseeing at that point, you're on a fun little adventure.
Miles
Then like, some days would be great. Going to Hawaii with my, my wife and my kids and just picking out puka shells, you know?
Tyler
Yeah, you're. You're seeing if you can get a pair of gas can Oakleys that look like the real thing for eight bucks.
Ryan
Well, you only get a pair for eight bucks if you buy two other pairs. That's true.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Or if you're for the whole family.
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah.
Tyler
It's a game.
Miles
Jared. You got one.
Jared
I think everyone's done this at some point. It's like moving from house to house because you really test each other's like, oh, yeah, temper.
Miles
Moving with your family.
Ryan
Moving with your family, dude, that's something that. Moving with your buddies is way better than moving with your family.
Miles
My mom's kind of taking it off the chin on this podcast, but my mom's the queen of barking unnecessary orders. You know, I will literally be two steps away from setting the box down in a certain area and she's like, set that box down right there. And I'm like, that's what I'm doing.
Tyler
The.
Miles
The box is two inches from the ground. You didn't need to tell me that's where he wanted it.
Ryan
As soon as she tells you that you don't want to put it there anymore.
Miles
Correct.
Ryan
Well, I'm going to put it in a different room.
Tyler
Yeah, this is going on the couch.
Ryan
I was going to until you said that.
Miles
Yeah.
Jared
Or like you're yelling at your brother to like pivot this way or stuff.
Miles
Oh, that actually happened to me growing up once we were carrying a chair down the stairs and I started yelling him. He wasn't doing it right. It is. It had happened because he was on the lower end and he was holding it and the chair like slid and was just like on his face. And so I'm like, dude, let's go. Come on. It's heavy. He's like, he Just yelled, it's on my face. Yeah. Nothing will make a guy more mad than when someone is not moving something the way that you want it move. And they're not reading your mind mind. You know, like you're going around a corner. You're like, we gotta tip it up. But they just like trying. You're like, we gotta tip it up. What are you doing?
Tyler
Tip it up. Tip it up.
Miles
Clearly not gonna fit. Up, up.
Tyler
Set your end down.
Miles
Tip it up my left. Say what you will about the show, friends, whether you love it or hate it, they did nail the pivot.
Ryan
They did.
Miles
Aspect to that show. This is how every moving goes.
Tyler
Well, that's gonna be me here in about a month, so.
Miles
So I'll let you borrow my trailer. Means I borrowed your nail gun.
Tyler
Okay, deal.
Ryan
I cleared it out for you.
Tyler
Yeah, thanks for clearing that out.
Ryan
Welcome.
Miles
Okay, so I get to borrow something from you now, Tyler.
Ryan
What do you need?
Miles
I don't know. I'm going to hold on to it for future favor.
Ryan
I just got a router.
Miles
A router?
Ryan
Yeah. Not like a WI fi router. Like to make edges on wood.
Miles
I thought you WI fi.
Ryan
So did I. Yeah.
Tyler
Need a router.
Miles
It's pretty flush on. On routers you could.
Ryan
32 different edge attachments.
Miles
Okay. That actually I'm very interested in.
Jared
Take a chance chainsaw.
Miles
Does it have a distressed attachment so that I can really distress the bench in my entryway?
Ryan
I haven't really explored all the things yet because this router I am borrowing from Grandpa. It's mine now. Grandpa, if you're listening.
Miles
Okay, so you're borrowing something that you've borrowed. Yeah, that would be. That would be like me going, jared, you need to borrow my electric nail gun.
Ryan
But it's different when you borrow it from grandpa.
Miles
It's just, it's.
Ryan
I'm going to give it back to him and like five years from now. So it's basically I'm renting it for five years rent free.
Miles
I did have a moment when we're doing our project this weekend where my dad was like, is this my bit set? Maybe he like a scuff right there. This is my drill. I'm like, yeah, sorry. Yeah, I. I actually meant to get back to you.
Ryan
Did he take it? I knew.
Tyler
I knew.
Miles
You're. It becomes one of those things where when you both bring tools and they get mixed together, you kind of forget which one is yours sometimes. I don't know. Shouldn't have left it in my truck.
Tyler
I don't know. You were talking about the distressing. You know what they should have? They like, they do stamp concrete. They should have some sort of like, like vinyl sticker system where you could just like stamp something onto the bench to make it look. Yeah.
Miles
Or just like a wood grain, big metal thing you hit with a hammer that like puts.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Just like a pattern in it.
Tyler
Yes.
Ryan
A big ass wood brand.
Miles
I mean, there's a whole group of people that would say, Ryan, that we should not be defacing this nice furniture.
Tyler
I, I, I know, but, but he's.
Miles
Like, my wife would love this.
Tyler
Imagine if you could do it to like ship lap.
Ryan
That'd be cool.
Jared
I can imagine.
Tyler
I'm gonna have that whole house ship lapped by Mark.
Jared
Let be out of style by that.
Tyler
Yeah, kind of.
Miles
Yeah.
Jared
Put up ship out of sty.
Miles
No.
Ryan
You know.
Tyler
Yeah, but that's, that, that's what makes it cool is I got. No one else is doing this anymore.
Jared
I just gotta wait 20 years till it's cool.
Tyler
Yeah. I mean, history repeats itself. So it's gonna be, it's gonna come back eventually.
Miles
Yeah. There's two best times to put up shiplap. Five years ago and 20 years from now.
Tyler
Yeah. You got, you're not gonna scare me away from doing ship. I might shiplap the whole garage. You don't know.
Miles
I think though, if you like, if you don't stain, if you don't paint it white or a color, I think it's cool.
Ryan
Right.
Miles
Because like old, old house. That's shiplap. That's just got a stain on the wood. Looks kind of cool. It doesn't feel like shiplap as soon as we start putting paint on it.
Ryan
The house I just got has a white shiplap fireplace.
Miles
There you go. I got some shiplap over my, over the, the range hood of my stove. Yeah, I, Hey, I've been ship lapped. I'll say it. Ryan's been ship lapped. Tyler's now in ship left. Jared, are you the only one holding strong? Yeah.
Ryan
They just wait 20 years.
Miles
Yeah. Then you're gonna be wishing you had been shiplapped.
Ryan
Sage. That sounds like a different way of saying I'm hammered. I got ship laughed last night.
Miles
Start saying that ship laps.
Ryan
You guys trying to get shiplapped tonight or what?
Miles
You ever been, you ever been ship lapped while you're ship lapping?
Ryan
No. I'd love to, though.
Miles
I have, I did at the lake. My mom has a whole wall of ship left. My mom's one binge Ship left as well.
Jared
Sorry about.
Miles
Sorry, Mom.
Tyler
Just off a chip.
Miles
I'm gonna have to text her and.
Jared
Be like, hey, don't listen.
Miles
Don't listen. Or. Or I just apologize. I didn't mean it. I was. I was trying to act cool in front of my friends. Yeah, I love.
Tyler
I actually love taking family photos with you, Mom.
Miles
Yeah, just get ahead of it. Just be. Just say, relax. It's a comedy. And then wait for her to figure out what I meant by that. I apologize, Mom.
Jared
Sorry, Mom.
Miles
Jared, you have a new segment for us.
Jared
New segment.
Miles
New segment. I'm kind of excited for this one. One.
Jared
I've. I've had this. The back of my mind for, like, two years. So it's good to finally, like.
Miles
It's good to get it.
Ryan
Finally. Scratching that itch. This gotta feel good.
Tyler
I mean, you scratched the soundage last week.
Jared
Yeah. So it's a idiom. Origin. So I'll read you guys an idiom, and you have to guess what the origin of that idiom is.
Miles
And for people like Ryan, explain what an idiom is.
Jared
So I have an example. So an idiom would be like, burn the midnight oil would be an idiot medium.
Miles
So it's a saying that means something, but it's not directly saying it.
Jared
Yeah, it's like the term, like bite the bullets. Another one.
Tyler
Like kill two birds with one stone.
Ryan
It's a phrase that operates as a sentence that means that nothing. What the actual.
Miles
If you took it literally, it does not mean what we're meaning it to mean.
Tyler
So when you say origin, we're talking country.
Jared
No, like, what it came from. The origin.
Miles
So where did bite the bullet come from?
Jared
So bur the midnight oil would be. Before electric lighting, people used oil lamps to work or study after dark. The. The phrase reflects the effort of staying up late. So that would be the origin.
Tyler
Okay. Okay. Yep. Yep.
Miles
So we have to guess what it came from. Y.
Ryan
Are we going in a circle or are we just, like, free?
Miles
I think we all guess. I think we all guess separately on each one.
Jared
Okay.
Miles
Is that what you had thought of, Jared?
Jared
All right, so you just want to go first? Smiles.
Miles
Well, we'll all guess it.
Jared
Oh.
Miles
Or you have specific ones for each of us.
Jared
I don't. So really just.
Miles
Yeah, just throw it out there. What is it? We can all spitball.
Jared
The next one is crocodile tears.
Miles
Crocodile tears? I'm guessing, you know, it's kind of like the sweating like a pig. Pigs don't sweat situation. So I think that crocodiles can't cry. And so it's kind of a fun little.
Ryan
You know, I'm gonna hit this opposite. I'm gonna hit this right on the head. That you would cry really hard if you got bit by a crocodile.
Tyler
I'm gonna say. Because when someone refers to someone as having crocodile cheers, like, they're crying pretty hard. They're big tears. I'm gonna say it's when a crocodile emerges from the water, everything running down his face.
Ryan
That's good, Ryan.
Miles
That is a good one. Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah.
Jared
Ancient belief held that crocodiles wept to lure their prey or when eating their victims. This idea was popularized in literature, though it's based on a myth.
Miles
So they did it as, like, a way to seem less aggressive and ferocious so that they would let. The prey would let their guard down.
Ryan
We just got the definition of crocodile tears wrong. Crocodile tears are fake tears. Tears like those are crocodile tears. You're fake crying. We just missed. We missed the definition.
Tyler
Okay. I was thinking they're big.
Ryan
Me too. I don't know why I was thinking that. That's not what they are.
Miles
I was thinking that, too.
Ryan
They're fake. Like, if my kid's crying and I know he's full of like. Those are crocodile tears.
Tyler
Crocodile tears are not real.
Miles
Yeah. I don't know, but I feel like I've heard people use it in the sense of they are, like, actually crying large tears. I feel like I've heard people misuse it.
Ryan
I think. Yeah. I think they're wrong. Wrong.
Jared
I think.
Miles
Yeah.
Jared
I've always thought it was what you.
Miles
Said, Tyler, the fake crying.
Ryan
Yeah. Fake crying. Yeah. That's definitely what it is. And I don't know why all three of us were just off right there.
Miles
We're not very good at this.
Ryan
I.
Miles
Okay, let's keep going.
Ryan
Barking up the wrong tree right now.
Miles
We were barking up the wrong tree there.
Jared
Butter him up. Him or butter them up. Yeah, him.
Ryan
Okay. I'm gonna just like, you're. You're doing it to make something. You would butter someone up to make it work easier. So, like, you'd butter something up to, like, have a big thing fit into a small area. I don't know. You're trying to make the situation easier because of that, you'd use butter as basically a lubricant.
Jared
Lubricant, yeah. To flatter someone.
Miles
I'm guessing it's because the origin is when they didn't know how to make bread. Very good. And so in order to make it taste better, you had to put butter.
Tyler
On it right when I Think of buttering somebody up. I think of, like. Like treating them really well to get something in return almost. So I. I'll say it. It stemmed from butlers back in the day putting extra loads of butter on.
Miles
Oh, that's a good one. Yeah.
Tyler
Person's bread.
Miles
Yeah. Basically the gist of mine is taking something that isn't very good and making it better butter.
Jared
In ancient India, a customary religious act involved devout. Devoutes. Devotees.
Ryan
Devotees.
Jared
Devotees. Throwing balls of butter at the statues of their gods. This was meant to ask for the gods for forgiveness and favor.
Ryan
So we were really close.
Miles
Yours is. Ryan's is as close as it could be.
Tyler
They're buttering up the God statues, huh?
Miles
You had to have dogs just licking the statues. Oh, boy.
Tyler
No one could, like, p. A prank, try and climb to the top of the statue.
Jared
Yeah, it's like in Philly.
Miles
Yeah, it's like. It's like the government started that because they're having problems with people, like, climbing the statues and putting, like, sombreros on. On statues heads, starting this tradition.
Ryan
What year?
Jared
Ancient India. That's all it's.
Ryan
Ancient India had sombrero problems.
Miles
Well, it's like the. At the Notre Dame campus, they have first down Moses is what they call. And he's holding the ten Commandments, and he's pointing like this to the sky. And you go by there anytime, and there's a condom on his finger. So it's the same situation.
Jared
Identical.
Miles
Y. And if. If Notre Dame adopted the. The. The butter tradition, you know, as a sacrifice to God, no wonder that Moses would be condom free or sticky or less.
Jared
Dicky.
Miles
Go.
Jared
Go the whole nine yards. Oh, man.
Miles
Whole. Go the whole nine yards. Isn't there a movie called the Whole Nine Yards?
Jared
I think so. I think Matthew Pan is in it.
Miles
It seems like a Matthew McConaughey movie. I don't know why it just does all nine yards.
Ryan
Foreign.
Miles
I'm guessing it's something that if you.
Ryan
Yeah, I think I know it.
Miles
I have no clue.
Ryan
They used to sell fabric in yards, and I think nine yards was the most that would be on a roll of fabric.
Miles
I'm gonna. I'm gonna. I'm gonna say that one too.
Tyler
Yeah, I was kind of thinking that.
Miles
One sounds so good that it's gotta be it.
Ryan
Come on, grandma.
Jared
Fighter pilots during fire to pilots during World War II had nine yards worth of ammunition. When they gave their all to the battle, they would run out of. Run out of this whole nine yards of any ammunition.
Miles
That's way cooler.
Ryan
Way cooler. Than fabric.
Tyler
Yeah, I like that.
Jared
They're, like, emptying the clip.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Which is another idiom. Kind of. Yeah. Or is that. Is that a analogy?
Ryan
It would be. Because you'd use it when it doesn't. Like I'm using all my. I'm emptying the clip here.
Miles
Yeah, yeah.
Jared
Skeleton in the closet.
Ryan
It's. It. The definition is you got secrets.
Jared
Yeah.
Ryan
So, like, murders. People were keeping skeletons in the closet back in the day? I don't know.
Jared
That's.
Tyler
That's. That'd be my best guess as well.
Miles
There was a serial killer, and his M.O. was putting people in the closet.
Jared
Before the UK passed its 1832 Anatomy act, grave robbers supplied skeletons for medical school. When a raid occurred, the teachers tended to hide these skeletons in the closets so as not to have them confiscated.
Miles
So schools were doing some shady.
Ryan
They had to teach, though.
Miles
They did a deal with the devil.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
There we had another idiom.
Miles
I don't know if that's an idiom. Is it?
Tyler
Oh, good. It'd be a good rock song.
Miles
Yeah, it would be a good.
Tyler
Good band name.
Miles
What's the devil with Devil?
Ryan
With the devil.
Tyler
Yes.
Jared
Steal someone's thunder.
Tyler
This has got to be an ancient.
Ryan
Gotta be Greek.
Tyler
Yes. Or Greek gods.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
Yep.
Ryan
Like thunder. Is that the blessing of Zeus? You stole it from him.
Miles
Isn't Thor the God of thunder?
Ryan
In Norse. Yes.
Jared
God thunder.
Miles
Be a great rock song also. Thunder struck would be sick.
Tyler
Yep.
Ryan
Thunder rolls or.
Miles
Yeah. Thunder and the lightning. Thunder. Thunder and lightning.
Tyler
Thunder thighs.
Ryan
Yeah, that's good.
Miles
Dude, are we just saying thunder things?
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah, pretty much.
Miles
If you had a. A bunch of bison running through a field, you could call them the thundering herd.
Ryan
Okay.
Miles
What'S it.
Jared
Steal someone's thunder.
Tyler
I'm going Greek gods.
Ryan
I'm gonna go with that. Zeus.
Miles
I'm gonna go with when a lightning strike happens. And the thund. It's so far away that you don't hear the thunder until the next lightning happens. So it looks like it stole its thunder.
Tyler
Okay.
Ryan
Yeah, that's.
Tyler
That's actually not. I mean, you put that together pretty well.
Jared
In the 1700s, playwright John Dennis invented a method to create thunder. Thunder sounds for the stage. When his play failed, others used his technique, prompting him to complain they had stolen his thunder.
Ryan
How are we going to get.
Miles
We're never going to get one of these. They're always so specific.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Do you have any more? More?
Jared
I have one more.
Miles
All right, let's hear it.
Jared
Spill the beans.
Miles
Easy. It originated from Kevin Malone in The office when he spilled his chili everywhere. And that's what I'm sticking to. That's where I get it from.
Ryan
I think it has something to do with Bush's family baked beans. They have a secret recipe. And if they were to let the secret Bush family secret recipe leak, then that you'd be spilling the beans. Beans.
Tyler
Spilling the beans is revealing something that is to reveal a secret. Yes, to reveal a secret. I don't know.
Miles
Well, hold on. Let me. If this is the last one, I want to get a real guess and. Yeah, think of one. Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
I'm keeping the bush. I remember those commercials where they talk about it being a secret family recipe.
Miles
That's not a bad guess, but also not very good. I feel like it's older than that.
Ryan
We never know.
Miles
I feel like it had to do.
Ryan
With the 1615 Boston bean disaster.
Miles
Yeah. Where beans flowed through the.
Jared
Spilled through.
Miles
Spilled through the streets of Manhattan. Yeah.
Tyler
And everyone is covered in beans.
Miles
So that's 35 miles an hour.
Jared
And George Bush's ancestor stopped it.
Miles
Which. That's how we get.
Ryan
And the molasses. The molasses residue in the streets gave us the Bush family bean recipe.
Miles
Yeah. No, that's what happened is the. The. The. The Boston bean disaster where they spilled the beans down the. And then the molasses they joined up and that's how they got the secret recipe. It was. It was on the corner of 8th and. And Main Avenue is where they collided. And that. The. Where we get Bush's beans from until this day.
Jared
You can still spell beads.
Miles
You can still smell Bush's beans on a hot day in Boston.
Tyler
So what was the secret?
Miles
What? The secret ingredients.
Tyler
Spilling the beans, like.
Miles
Oh, you want me to. Yeah, spill the beans.
Tyler
No, I. I got it. I mean, it was a good. It was a good guess. I just wanted.
Miles
And, well, that wasn't my real guess.
Tyler
Oh, okay. Yeah.
Miles
That's a lot of brain power all of a sudden. Why all of a sudden is he getting snippy?
Tyler
I know. I was just. I was asked because we. We already established what spilling the beans meant, but that had nothing by the origin.
Miles
He was just making it funny.
Ryan
I'm not serious about the Boston bean disaster.
Tyler
You sounded serious about your answer. That's why I asked.
Miles
That's how you know I was a good Joe. Jesus. They got explained. The bit must have been. All right. I need. I want to get a good answer out. Spilling the beans. It was the 1400s. There was a. It was. They were at a manor style. The state with servants. And when there was a couple that was eating dinner and a servant came up with beans and when the wife said something shocking, a secret so shocking it made the servant spill the drop and spill the beans and therefore that's what that means.
Jared
That's not bad.
Tyler
Mine was along the similar lines except for the servant just spilt the beans before serving supper and just never, never told anybody about it. But because. Because the family never got beans then she. There was consequences sure for not serving.
Miles
Beans with the meal, but that wouldn't make sense anyways.
Jared
Dates back to ancient Greece where votes and secret ballots were cast using beans. If someone spilled them.
Miles
I saw that on Tick Tock it.
Jared
Would reveal the outcome prematurely and I.
Miles
Forgot that just goes to show how much you retain from the content you watch.
Ryan
So they would read that again.
Miles
So when they. When someone would tell what the bean count is, that would be spilling the beans.
Jared
Revotes and secret ballots were used casting beads. If someone spilled the beans, it would reveal the outcome prematurely.
Tyler
It's so obvious.
Miles
I was close.
Tyler
Right in front of our face.
Ryan
I mean I was pretty close too.
Miles
It's a tough segment to guess on just cuz it's again so specific and cba. It could be anything. Could be any time, could be anywhere. It could be anyone.
Ryan
I think the one that we had the least amount of chance of getting was stealing the thunder.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
How are we supposed to ever. We were never going to guess that.
Miles
Yeah. All right. Well. Was that it? Jiren.
Jared
Two fun facts here.
Miles
I'm. Your bones will be before fun facts. Guys. Make sure you go check out our Patreon.
Ryan
Yeah, you should.
Miles
We got all sorts of episodes over there. We're working on what the next goal is. I saw someone comment on Spotify said at 5000 miles should do a soul patch.
Jared
That's a great idea.
Ryan
For how long?
Miles
I just. I did decide. I don't know if we talked about this on the Patreon podcast or this one. Do you remember Sharon? The soul patch.
Tyler
Patreon.
Miles
Patreon. So we talk. You want to go listen to that? I was debating on whether or not I would spill the beans to Anne. Couldn't wait any longer. I floated the idea past her and I think the. I think I know I need to do it because when I said what do you think about me doing a soul patch? She said that's disgusting. So we're talking like this could be perfect.
Ryan
We're talking like clean shaven face.
Miles
Clean shaven. Except for literally the triangle of hair right underneath my Hell yeah. Lip.
Ryan
Hell yeah.
Miles
I, I, it's not confirmed, but not confirmed that we're going to do that.
Tyler
But it's not. Yeah. Skeleton.
Miles
It's an, maybe it could be like a, a meter stone instead of a milestone.
Ryan
Okay.
Miles
Along the way.
Jared
A milestone.
Miles
It could be a milestone instead of a milestone.
Ryan
It's one extra s. Yeah, yeah.
Tyler
I'll do one too.
Jared
Your bone.
Tyler
I could talk.
Ryan
You don't have to at all. No, no.
Miles
We all got to do soul patches.
Tyler
That's the point. I wouldn't really have to do anything.
Jared
You just have to take a sharpie to your face, Right?
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Miles
Let me see. Yours would be so blonde. Yours and I, Jared, would look nice.
Jared
Quote unquote. Your bones will make up about, up about 50% of your total body weight. So if you weigh 200 pounds, your bones weigh about 30. 30 pounds.
Tyler
That's why they say there's no such thing as big boned. Is that correct?
Jared
It's a rough estimate because some bones are bigger.
Ryan
So like on average.
Miles
Yeah, yeah.
Ryan
Like the heavier you are that your bones have to get denser to support your weight. So if you're, if you're huge, you quite literally are big boned.
Miles
Well, but also too if like, like maybe I'm big boned. Tyler, Remember I was saying that I feel like we're, I'm a little bit bigger than you, but I don't feel like I'm 30 pounds larger than you. Maybe I just got bigger bones than you could be big bone. Yeah. Because it's like someone who doesn't appear to be a certain weight. You know, it's like I probably got the higher bone density or some, I don't know.
Ryan
I take a lot of calcium supplements.

I think you were. You had to cut weight for wrestling probably.
Ryan
No, my mom actually, the. I don't remember the story, but my mom told me.
Miles
She what? So are you saying that you were bulimic growing up?
