Ryan
I ask. I, I do. I'm. I'll say right now, I do a lot around here.
Miles
I don't. The rest of us.
Ryan
And I don't ask.
Miles
We all do stuff and I don't ask for much.
Ryan
And I, I. Where I probably up was. I just asked Jared and I. I probably should have asked the entire group or just told the entire group. My only request in the new studio was to sit on the end chair because whenever I sit in the middle chair during when we used to do interviews and I. I'm playing. It's. I'm watching a game of ping pong over here.
Miles
Well, someone's got to play ping pong if we're gonna do it this way,
Jared
so it's gonna be Marty supreme.
Tyler
I don't.
Ryan
I don't know who Marty's. Well, I know it's a movie.
Tyler
I haven't seen it, to be fair. We all got a ping pong. Is that to look at you.
Miles
To look at Jared, you, Ryan, and I'm ping ponging Jared.
Tyler
You. You ping pong between us. We ping pong between Jared and the rest.
Jared
I ping pong the last.
Tyler
Everybody.
Miles
We are all ping ponging.
Ryan
Jared does the least amount of talking, though.
Tyler
Yeah, he doesn't have to ping pong. So you can switch with Jared, get produce.
Miles
We all do work around here, by the way.
Ryan
I know. I'm. I'm not. I'm not saying we just all. I'm not saying you guys don't.
Miles
Yes, your work is more physically demanding by. Especially with the move lately. I understand that, but we're all still working all day.
Ryan
And that's. That's not even. That was just. That was the precursor to what I was being shitty about.
Miles
So for those that don't know, Ryan's not happy about his spot in the new studio. So here we go. Do you want to switch? I. No, no, no.
Ryan
Actually, no, I'm not.
Miles
Actually was trying to do it as a way to show that it was the second guy on the podcast, the third guy on the podcast. And I was. It was actually out of respect for you. And then now you want to sit in the third chair. So I don't know what to do here. I need. I. I was like, I need my guy Ryan, right next to me, his left hand man. My left hand man.
Tyler
And.
Miles
And now you wanna. You wanna abandon me for Tyler's. No, no, he's only got one. He's only got one armrest over there.
Ryan
I'll be. And I. I tested the armrest out Didn't I? Yeah. And it was fine. I would thrive over in that spot. But that's. It's not even about that. I'm not.
Miles
Okay, let's do it.
Ryan
I'll be. I'll be sitting until this podcast is completely done with. I'll be sitting right here. No, I can be shitty about it without actually putting it into effect. Yeah, like, me feeling better about the situation is just to be shitty about it, and sometimes I need to do that. It actually feels good. And also, I think this is a setup because now, like, my nuts are right in the middle of the frame, so I have to be careful whenever, whatever day we film the podcast, I got to be careful with what I wear.
Tyler
You just gotta wear undies. You're good.
Miles
Just wear underwear. We'll be fine. As long as you don't have a nut pop out.
Jared
We don't shoot it live. I could always blur it.
Tyler
Yeah, that would be fun. Just put a blur on the rest of the episode.
Jared
Patreon will be uncensored.
Tyler
Yeah, we did. We did realize that there are some nut shots, so we joked that we're gonna do suction cup dildos right in the camera angles for our nut shots.
Miles
That's your other option.
Ryan
Yeah. I mean, yeah, whatever option's fine. If you want to blur it, you'll have to blur it to the floor.
Miles
Are you now being shitty about your mic, too? Fix it like the rest of us. I tilted towards you.
Ryan
There we go.
Tyler
Fix.
Ryan
That's what we do.
Jared
There we go. Teamwork. Dream work.
Tyler
Live audio engineering.
Ryan
Yeah, I'm better now.
Tyler
I feel good.
Jared
I feel great.
Miles
And I know what this is about. This is. This is about at least one full month of us, of Ryan basically doing the move by himself while the rest of us continue to keep the boat afloat. And it's just boiling over a little bit. I get it.
Ryan
Maybe a little bit. You might be correct.
Miles
And, you know, it's like, that's. We all had a job to do, and it just sucks that your job the last month has been very intense.
Tyler
Yeah, you had. You had way more boxes to move than the rest of us, for sure. I don't mean that to sound as shitty as it came out.
Miles
No, like, I really don't know. Like. Like, yeah, your last. Your last month, you guys. It's last two months as it's. It's like, I wouldn't trade my job for your job the last two months. And I get that. And it's kind of boiling over a little bit, but we're moved into this place.
Ryan
Yeah, no, and it's great.
Miles
And any other stuff you got. I told you you could take a week off if you want. Not say that.
Ryan
No, I can't miss the podcast. No, I know, but I told the guy.
Miles
I understand you've been working hard, you've been doing a lot of shit, and I got. This is. Actually, I said if you need to take some days off, just let me know.
Ryan
Yeah, maybe I will. Maybe I'll just take a day off.
Tyler
Yeah, you can.
Miles
You can. You absolutely can.
Tyler
I know I can do it.
Jared
Do it.
Miles
Do it. You want?
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, you can't do it.
Miles
So, anyways, this is what we've been working with here since we're in the new studio.
Jared
It's a great christening for the new studio.
Miles
We just got the first riff out of the way.
Tyler
We get to do a cleanse.
Miles
I'm being dead serious. Set all of your stubbornness aside. Do you want to sit there?
Ryan
No. No. Because now I'm fine with it.
Miles
Okay. All right.
Ryan
Again, I had to be shitty about it, and now I'm. Now I'm over it. I'm fine with it. Now I'm ready to rock.
Miles
Did you. Will you at least admit, though, that we did say that we all have to ping pong?
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah, we talked about the ping pong. I think the other. The other issue is that if. Like, if I'm talking to you, like, if I just get done it. See, the thing is, I. I'm. I've. I'm known to argue with both of you at times. So if. If my head is turned one way, then I. We could. We could. We could have a talker on the other side.
Miles
Okay. Like, behind.
Ryan
Quite literally behind my back, almost. If I were to just turn this way.
Miles
Right.
Jared
If that. If that happens, I'll. I'll be reinforcements for you.
Ryan
Yeah. You have to let me know if people snitch, please do.
Tyler
The tires making faces at you, Ryan, then I'm good.
Miles
But, Ryan, I want you to also remember, you're going to do less neck cranking with this setup, because I can see you. Before we were like this, right?
Ryan
Yeah. We didn't make much. I never.
Miles
I never even saw you. I just would talk to you like this.
Ryan
I know.
Miles
Yeah. The crank and then we had the pole in the way.
Tyler
I would.
Miles
Objectively, this is better for your neck.
Ryan
Might be in my back with this chair, because. Do we.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Is the other chair in here?
Miles
Back.
Ryan
It's back there. It's.
Tyler
It's Waiting for you. We need to change your mind. Yeah.
Ryan
Again. I just. I just had to be shitty about it for. For a little bit, and now I'm good.
Miles
I feel like once a month, someone's getting pissy at each other in this office.
Ryan
Yeah. So I spend a lot of time together.
Miles
We do time together, so. Welcome back, everybody, to another episode of you Bet. Your radio podcast.
Tyler
All right, back to it.
Miles
We're in the new studio. We're still figuring out what we're gonna do with the background. We're still figuring out if even this is a permanent thing here. I don't know. After this.
Ryan
I like it. No, it looks good on the camera. It's the first time I'm looking at it.
Miles
Yeah. And so. Yeah. What do you guys think? I feel like this is exactly what we need.
Tyler
It's a little weird being so close to you guys. It's gonna take some getting used to.
Miles
Yeah. You'll figure it out.
Tyler
Yeah. Even in. Even in the double Bogey show, Ryan and I had a cooler between each other.
Ryan
Well, now we have a armrest. Yeah, this is my arm. Nope, nope, nope, nope. It's attached to my chair, so.
Miles
I actually didn't even think about how much this podcast could be elevated with physical confrontation as well as verbal confrontation.
Ryan
That's very true.
Miles
We definitely were all spaced out very far.
Jared
We're very coveted compliant. Yeah, we were.
Miles
We were social distancing on accident.
Tyler
You can never be too safe. It's been six years, but because I
Jared
had glass in front of me, and now I don't.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, that's, like, very true.
Jared
It's, like, going from, like, standard definition to, like, high definition.
Miles
Yeah. Have you always. Have you always been that ugly, Jared?
Tyler
Yeah.
Jared
I like it, though.
Ryan
I think it looks good.
Miles
You know what's. So we have always joked in this podcast, and the reason why we have this rug, it's the, you know, big Lebowski joke that the rug, right, ties the room together. But the other night, like, Friday, I was here at, like, 9pm Just, like, moving around by myself, and I was looking at it, and, I mean, it looks weird. I don't like it. I don't like it at all. And then I went, the rug's not down. I put the rug down, and I was like, this. It ties the whole room together.
Tyler
Changed everything.
Miles
I want you guys to know how important this rug is for the vibes of this studio.
Tyler
Can you imagine how pissed we'd have been at each other if the rug wasn't here?
Miles
It would have been all. All sorts of.
Ryan
I'd have flipped that table over.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
I mean, in an absolute heartbeat. That table would have been on its. On its top.
Jared
It really does tie the room together.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
Should get some carpet tape on that baby.
Miles
So one complaint about the new office is we got one bathroom in our office. Then there's one public bathroom, which is a public one. Yeah, I think there is.
Jared
Yeah, there is.
Ryan
I don't know where it's at, but.
Miles
Oh, and also we found out there's a vending machine in this building which is clutch.
Tyler
Oh, let's go.
Miles
But me and Noah went up there today. Everything's sold out except for Monster Diesel and Soni Water.
Tyler
Nice. Carbonated water. Intentionally. Yeah.
Miles
And there might have been a mellow yellow or two available. Sure.
Ryan
And we know what mellow yellow does to.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
God.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
I drink a lot.
Miles
Yellow five is what I call it.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Is it one of them. It's not one of them vending machines. You can stick your hand up and.
Miles
It's old school. Vending machine. Yeah, so.
Jared
So we'll tip that thing over later and get a free one.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Yeah. Does anyone have any? That's one of the things that sucks about this office is the one bathroom.
Tyler
Yeah, I would agree after being in
Miles
here now for a couple of days. Is there anything else you guys hate?
Jared
There's one really funny part about the bathroom is the bathroom drain. Have you seen it? Yeah, the tile.
Tyler
The tile work. I look at that every time I'm peeing.
Ryan
It's unbelievable. Actually laughing about the last probably 24 hours.
Miles
This is just a bunch of tiles pieced together.
Jared
I'll take a photo of it quick and show you a photo.
Tyler
Yeah, it's like somebody dropped a tile and then just used the pieces to make the drain.
Miles
Well, it's because it's. It's got to go.
Tyler
It.
Miles
Because it's got to go from all angles. Right.
Ryan
The way that they cut the pieces,
Miles
I just could have cut it like a pizza.
Tyler
Yeah. They could have made it look uniform or like planned. This looks like they dropped the towel. Like we don't have any more.
Ryan
Like it looks like my four year old arts and crafts.
Miles
That is dog shit. It's like it looks like a. Like a. Like a conch, Shel, is what it looks like. Maybe they were getting the conch treatment.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah. Who knows?
Miles
Yeah. Who knows?
Tyler
There's a tropical theme in there before.
Ryan
One thing I do like about this place though is we once we get stuff put on the walls, we're actually gonna have a place to, like, put toilet paper and poopery and like that.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah. The cupboards have stocked already.
Ryan
We're gonna be utilizing cupboards a lot more than we did in our last place.
Miles
Are we?
Ryan
Oh, yeah. I'm gonna make sure of it. Because before, I had to walk downstairs in order to get that done.
Miles
It's true.
Ryan
You know, now we're on where we've
Jared
also had, like, random strangers come through the front door.
Miles
Oh, yeah, this. This building used to be a staffing agency. We've come to understand. And so we just have had people. We had two people come in asking. They're like. We're like, oh, they're not here anymore. So they left. Then another guy came in later, and he goes, this the staffing agency. I go, no, we are not. And he's like. He's like, well, what do you guys do? Are you hiring? Yeah. He was ready to do any job.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
And honestly, Ryan, we should. We should have hired him as day labor for you so that you could have had a day off.
Tyler
You could have put on. Emptied all the boxes.
Ryan
You guys. You get a card from him or anything?
Tyler
No.
Miles
And then. So then after that, I. Oh, my God. Jared.
Tyler
Jared's mic.
Miles
His mic fell, and it. And it up the camera. This is a mess.
Tyler
Start.
Miles
He gets you eliminate the glass, and the guy just can't handle it.
Ryan
Yeah, he's not. Yeah, he's. He was breathing his own. He was breathing his own oxygen in the last place.
Jared
We're good.
Miles
Okay, you're back.
Tyler
Thank God.
Miles
So after that guy came in, I said, I'm not dealing with that anymore. So I made a. I made a sign for the door. It says, staffing agency is no longer at this location. Please do not come in and ask. Yeah, thanks. And have we had anyone?
Tyler
No.
Ryan
No.
Tyler
I haven't even seen anyone come and snoop at it yet.
Ryan
I did yesterday. I saw. I was walking behind a guy, and he was.
Miles
And he stopped and then left. He.
Ryan
He was just going for a walk, but he stopped to read the sign and then kept going.
Miles
Okay.
Ryan
He had no intentions of stopping. I mean, he works in a different.
Jared
You're like, where are you going?
Miles
Yeah, what are you doing?
Ryan
Yeah, what are you looking at? The. You looking at?
Tyler
Take one, go get a job.
Jared
Not.
Miles
Also, we have a curved wall in this office.
Tyler
What do you do with the curve?
Miles
I never even realized. We have this long table that go perfect there. And then we put it there, and it just looks stupid. There's like an 18 inch gap behind the table. What are we supposed to do with that? You can't hang anything on it. We have, like, a nice thing with our logo that we're gonna hang on. How do we.
Tyler
I gotta just get, like a really big long bolt in a stud and, like, have a wire on it or something.
Miles
Yeah, I think we're gonna have to hook a wire on the back. Maybe hanging from the, I don't know, floating picture frames.
Jared
Kind of a.
Miles
Kind of a vibe kind of.
Ryan
It might be a dumb question, but
Jared
it's a safe space.
Ryan
When they do that. When they do the curved walls, do they cut the Sheetrock all the way to, like, the paper part to curve it?
Tyler
Yeah, you like micro cuts and that's how you mold that just seems like
Ryan
a lot of work.
Miles
Just done a straight wall and absolutely could have done a straight wall kind of a vibe, but it was probably built in the fucking 90s and they love doing shit like that.
Tyler
You probably look cool as shit behind a receptionist desk.
Miles
I think another. Funny.
Jared
I think another hot receptionist in front of that.
Tyler
You put a smoke show in front of a curved wall, game over. Everyone's getting jobs.
Jared
Makes it pop more.
Ryan
All right, Build your dream receptionist right over there.
Tyler
My wife.
Ryan
Great answer, great answer.
Miles
All right, I'll go next. Tyler's wife.
Tyler
Have you ever seen there's a Reddit prompt? He's like, if you could bring back one woman throughout history for a night, a roll in the hay, who would you pick? And some guy's like, my late wife. I miss her so much. And then the next comments, I also choose that guy's dead wife.
Ryan
Holy Reddit.
Tyler
Yeah, it's a.
Miles
It's a.
Ryan
Be careful.
Jared
Good bet you were discretion advised, not nsfw.
Miles
No, I like that. I think another thing in this office that I noticed after we moved in is that that office right there clearly used to not be an office, because look at where the light is and how the wall goes over the light.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
So that clearly they added that office later, and that was clearly part of the hallway. And then they just said, you know what? It. We'll just leave the light. We'll just go right up to it. So I don't know if you're. If you change that light because can you get that thing open enough to be able to get in?
Tyler
Does it go into the other room?
Ryan
I don't even think the light works.
Miles
Yeah, I don't know. So notice that about it. But yeah, other than that, she'll do
Ryan
the one thing I noticed too is the part. The parking lots of. The parking lot is kind of a battleground early in the morning.
Tyler
Oh, yeah.
Ryan
So I've been here. I've been here before anyone else was in the parking lot. So I'm like, oh, this isn't too bad. Like, hopefully you guys show up in the next 15, 20 minutes so you can get a good spot. Five minutes after I was here, Boom, full damn.
Tyler
But I got a good spot today.
Ryan
I fucking sniped front row at lunchtime. You got to. You got to wait till they go to lunch.
Miles
Yeah. And then go. Just move your car.
Tyler
Exactly.
Ryan
Crack the blinds, wait till they go to lunch.
Miles
And then ryan at like 11:55 is fucking peeking. And then they get. They seem drive off and Ryan's just walking out.
Tyler
Ryan's just in his truck idling, waiting for them to pull out of this.
Ryan
I'm in the lot with my blinker on, waiting.
Jared
It's like Shia LaBeouf and Disturbia.
Miles
We got a security camera out there. I could put one actually, just facing the.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Parking lot. And so then we can hook it up in your. In your thing. And so you don't even need to be peeking through the shades. You just see someone move.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
And honestly, what we should do. Right. And I know you got a lot in your plate, and I don't want to add another thing to your plate, Ryan, because you've been very busy. We could just all hang our keys in your office and you can have the CCTV of the parking lot.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
And then over throughout the day as people leave, you go move all of our cars. So we're always front row when we go home.
Ryan
Spot one free.
Miles
Yeah. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
Jared
Yeah. You're like a valet.
Ryan
Yeah, kind of. Yeah.
Miles
Honestly, Ryan, that would be great if you could speak. You're here first anyways. You could stand by the door so that I can just roll up, throw the keys to you, and you go parking.
Tyler
And look nice about it, too. Put on a bow tie.
Ryan
No. Before I leave tomorrow, I'm rocks from the landscape and just put them in a spot.
Jared
I was thinking like just an orange cone in front of the spot.
Miles
Yeah, we have the orange cone.
Ryan
Thanks for understanding. But thanks for understanding. After that note, no one's going to touch.
Miles
Cuz we knew that the. The parking was an issue in front here. So the night before we moved in, I took to traffic. Or they're more like agility. They're more soccer agility cones. Not like the. The dome ones that like are low
Tyler
to the ground still an actual cone.
Miles
It's like, you know, in third grade when you, when you're not, you know, your soccer team isn't enough to actually have real goals. You just got cones about those.
Ryan
Okay.
Tyler
Okay.
Miles
So I had. For whatever reason, I have no idea. I had two of them in my. In my garage. Never been used. So book. And again, nine o' clock at night, I got those babies out. I taped a piece of paper to it that said like, reserved for a move in. Thanks for understanding. Exclamation point. And I feel like the thanks for understanding is a lot like this rug. It tied the whole thing together. Yeah.
Ryan
One was going to question that because,
Miles
like, because it was like, hey, don't park here. But also, we want to be good neighbors.
Tyler
Yeah. This will be the one day we inconvenience you.
Miles
Yep. And that's the thing is we need to pick and choose when we use those cones because we. We found out that it. Those wield a lot.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
They work.
Ryan
Yeah. This. I mean, it could be a month moving. We could just keep putting them out there. It's taking a long time.
Miles
And it's one of those things that we learned a lot about human nature that it's like you can get in the super bowl if you just walk in with a ladder.
Tyler
Yep.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
You can block off anything if you
Jared
got some orange cones, agility cones.
Miles
We should just see what we can get away with. Let's just start fucking. Let's block off the driveway in here and just see if people don't come
Tyler
in and we can leave the reasoning out. We can just say reserved, thanks for understanding,
Miles
or just put like, got some shit going on. Thanks for understanding. We don't even have to say reserved. Yeah.
Jared
Have had a tough week.
Tyler
We should try this other places. Like night before a concert at the Fargo Dome, go put a cone out in a good spot. Just reserve thanks for understanding. Buy our parking ticket like everybody else
Miles
and go to the cone. The. The North Dakota DOT and the road construction crew could take a page out of this book if they just. If they slapped a sign on every construction cone on the roads that just said blocked off for construction. Thanks for understanding. We would all be like, oh, yeah, that makes sense.
Tyler
If we drive by the sign, it's like slow traffic ahead. Thanks for understanding. I would be way less angry when I reached.
Miles
You can't be mad at a sign that says thanks for understanding.
Jared
No.
Ryan
God, no. When yours was handwritten too.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Wasn't even typed out on a sheet. Of paper.
Miles
Yeah. And that's the key. Even if you get a font that looks handwritten, you don't have to write them on. All of them could be good. I think I'm. And I'm starting to think that this can be applied to many things in life. You know, it's like, honey, I'm going golfing in the morning. Thanks for understanding. You know, sorry, buddy, I missed your t ball game. I was golfing. Thanks for understanding that to your child.
Tyler
It's hilarious.
Jared
Sorry, boss, can't make it in today. I'm hungover. Thanks for understanding.
Miles
What am I going to respond and say like, no, I don't understand, but
Tyler
I already thanked you for it.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Hey, Ryan. Sorry I'm in your chair. Thanks for understanding.
Miles
It's never his chair.
Ryan
I feel. Never his chair. I feel totally, totally much better.
Miles
Unless. Unless you. Unless you sharded in that chair, then it's yours.
Tyler
I think I sharted in it.
Miles
So whoever sharts in that chair first, it's theirs.
Jared
Huh?
Tyler
Done.
Jared
And if you out of it, would you keep it or would you throw it away or clean it?
Miles
We'd clean it.
Tyler
Clean this chair.
Miles
All right.
Ryan
Yeah, because. What's that. What's it called? The rule or something?
Tyler
Yeah, the poop rule.
Miles
If you got poop on it, would you throw it away or wash it? But yeah, I. I don't know. I feel like that could apply to a lot of things. I think we kind of just unlocked a little code in life.
Ryan
Yeah. Hey, sorry I cut you off in traffic and flicked you off. Tough week. Thanks for understanding.
Miles
Imagine if we just made bumper stickers like, not the best driver. Thanks for understanding.
Ryan
Oh, my God, I'd be so okay with the person cutting me out.
Miles
Essentially. This is what student driver is.
Tyler
Yeah, but they don't thank us on it.
Miles
They don't say thanks if they. If it was student driver. Thanks for understanding. Yeah, A lot of situations, I'm rolling
Tyler
my window down at the stoplight, giving
Miles
them advice, like, think how many bar fights.
Jared
Throwing shit at them.
Tyler
Yeah. Instead of flipping that 16 year old
Ryan
off, that's being like, you're doing great.
Miles
Yeah, I understand. You're welcome.
Jared
Eyes on the road.
Miles
I mean, think of how many bar fights we could prevent if. If every bar just started. Like, when you order your drink, it also comes with a T shirt. And then it's like, if I order, you know, Windsor 7, I get a shirt that says, I'm. I'm drinking whiskey. Thanks for understanding. If a guy taps me, he's all pissy. I mean, I turn around, I'm wearing that shirt. He's like, ah, I get it. I've been there.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
And then he's like. He's drinking. He's drinking tequila, you know, and he doesn't have anything. Go a long way in this society.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
You get that tattooed on your chest when you get drunk, you take your shirt off. I'm hammered. Thanks for understanding.
Miles
Sorry, officer. I've been drinking. Thanks for understanding.
Tyler
You know what? I appreciate that. Carry on. You can pee in the landscaping. I don't care.
Ryan
You can do that restaurants, too. I forgot my wallet. Don't have apple pay. Thanks for understanding.
Miles
You got to pull on the heartstrings a little more. Like, like, you know, like, it's. I've had a tough month. Thanks for understanding.
Jared
But moving boxes.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
You know, it's also a funny bit. You go. You, like, go to a restaurant, and you. You. You order your food, and then when the check comes, just being like, oh, do you guys accept pay it forward? And they'd be like, oh, do you want to pay for someone else's? Like, no. Do you have any banked up? Because I don't have any cash.
Tyler
What would they do?
Miles
We went through a phase where every restaurant and bar and, like, brewery was doing. You buy it now. What a. What a racket for everyone.
Ryan
Yeah, there it was a couple years ago, I feel like.
Miles
Yeah, it was probably, like, 2013 to, like, 20. Oh, 17. It was heavy. Like, you go to a brewery and it's like, pint it forward, and you could buy a pint for someone to come get, and you put their name on it, and then they'd never redeem it. So basically, you just bought two drinks.
Tyler
Great business model.
Miles
Great business model. We should just start doing that for. For, like. That's our only model.
Ryan
Slay it forward.
Miles
Yeah, it's like.
Ryan
Like, I'm not even gonna. Yeah, that's a thing.
Miles
But, yeah, like, that would be a good. Maybe business move around Christmas, you know, like, throughout the year, you go to this, and then it's like you. You're like, hey, would you like to buy something for Christmas for someone so you don't forget? And then you just like, yeah, just. I'll put 30 bucks down, and they can come get whatever they want. Yeah, it's like a gift card, but you don't actually have to, like, wrap it up. You can just be like, hey, you just go over there. Your name's on it.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
And people love your name. Yeah, it's like the same with the Dairy Queen. Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah, you bet. You could kill the week.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Free corn at the counter for you.
Miles
You know, you open up your card, it just says like I left your name at the hardware store. Go pick it up. Yeah, you're kind of like, oh yeah, I get to walk in and go, hey, I'm Miles and I'm here to pick up my.
Tyler
That'd be a great prank to play
Miles
on your friends and then just not have anything.
Tyler
Are you talking about. Yeah, they stopped doing physical gift cards. I just gave them money. So it's there in an account for you. Go over to the hardware store and tell them your name and that you're here to get stuff.
Miles
Yeah, just. Just tell them you're Tyler Z. That should do the trick.
Tyler
Yeah, I gave him a security code. I did 6969 to be funny. So go up there, tell them Tyler Z. 6969 and see what they say.
Miles
They all know. Yeah, that it's some like, some like 19 year old kid who didn't go to college. He's like, what the is.
Tyler
Who are you?
Jared
I bought you a dance at the strip club. It was 30 bucks.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah. Go there. Demand it.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
No, no. Yeah, probably use thanks for understanding at the strip club once in a while too. And that's all I'd like to say about that.
Tyler
I got a bone to pick with some of the people out in the parking lot though.
Miles
Oh, Tyler, it's.
Tyler
It's a small, small bone to pick. Okay. The guys with the trucks, you don't need to back in on this side of the building. There's. There was five trailer hitches just waiting to claim shins on the sidewalk this morning.
Jared
Yeah, I hate people that Back in.
Tyler
If you're going to back into a spot, back in on the opposite side.
Ryan
It's such a.
Jared
Try hard.
Ryan
I'm parked in. I'm backed in right now.
Tyler
Is your trailer hitch
Miles
if you're doing it every time? Yeah, that sucks. It's annoying. But there's been times where I'm like, oh, to get into this spot. It's going to be easier with my truck to just go this way and then back in because like pull into the handicap and then just back in. Otherwise I got to do a 15 point turn.
Jared
You just park in the handicap and
Tyler
I got no problem.
Jared
Got a big.
Tyler
Yeah, I have no problem.
Miles
Thanks for understanding.
Ryan
Woke up sore. Thanks for understanding. Had to push mow my lawn last night. Thanks.
Tyler
Deadlifts last night.
Jared
Pretty Sore, banged up on whiskey.
Tyler
Long over. I don't care that they're backing in, but don't put your trailer hitch 2 1/2ft over the sidewalk.
Ryan
I know. Yeah.
Miles
They don't want to hang out in the. It's cuz you don't have a. You don't have a. A truck like us.
Tyler
I do.
Miles
Kind of does. Yeah.
Tyler
But with the hitch in it.
Ryan
I will say if I'm parked up front, I will pull in straight, but if I'm parked on the other side, I will back in because.
Miles
Which is what Todd wants you to do.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Miles
Thanks for understanding.
Tyler
Thank you for understanding.
Jared
I don't know, I just feel like it's try hard move.
Miles
Yeah. I mean, if there's no other cars around.
Jared
Yeah. Or like this actually pisses my brother off. When people back into their garage with a pickup, that pisses him off.
Miles
Okay, well you. I do that once in a while, but that's because my kid is on. So if he's on the back right of me, so I back in. So then he. We can just get him out easier. Right into the open garage. Otherwise we're sometimes up against the wall and the door doesn't open all the way.
Jared
I understand.
Tyler
You gotta crawl in from the driver's side.
Miles
And sometimes I got stuff in the bed that I need to put right in the thing.
Jared
That's my brother. It's not me on that one.
Ryan
Yeah, let's call him up. What is your brother?
Miles
Driver. So I need to like have a sign outside that says like baby on board. Easier to take him out. Thanks for understanding. When I'm backing in.
Tyler
Jared's. Dear Jared's brother. Here's why I do this. Thanks for understanding.
Jared
Wouldn't hurt.
Tyler
He'd probably be less pissed off.
Ryan
What is he driving?
Miles
I like this new segment that I call Equinox. Jared's brother's complaints. What else does your brother hate?
Ryan
He hates the Packers.
Jared
He hates the Packers.
Ryan
Oh my gosh.
Jared
Just. He doesn't like Kevin o' Connell that much. He like. He thinks Brian Flores should be the coach.
Tyler
Okay.
Jared
He doesn't like his neighbors that much because he like when he goes on his deck, he can see like everybody else on their deck and they're like all level with him. He hates that.
Ryan
Do they all wave at each other if one walks out like late? Kind of like.
Jared
Well, he's also by Airbnb too, so there's like new people on the deck all the time.
Miles
That would actually piss me off.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
God. But if You're a salesperson. What kind of job does he have?
Jared
He's insurance dude.
Tyler
Perfect.
Miles
He should be Mr. Wilson on the other side of the fence handing out cards.
Jared
That's true.
Miles
It's actually a great business model.
Jared
Guerrilla marketing. Yeah.
Miles
Or maybe do a pretend like he's like the. The butler and he can like bring over some refreshments and then have his card on some coasters.
Tyler
These refreshments brought to you by ex insurance company.
Jared
It's not a bad idea.
Miles
Could be a good idea.
Jared
He doesn't like Mark Wahlberg.
Miles
I understand that, actually. Yeah. The thing that rubs me the wrong way about Mark Wahlberg is that he says he claims he wakes up at 3:00am oh, yeah. He goes to bed at 7:00pm and wakes up at 3 p. 3:00am that's
Tyler
kind of what my dad does.
Miles
But why?
Tyler
Yeah, to brag about it.
Miles
Can't tell me that your life's that much better waking up at 3 versus even 5:30.
Ryan
Yeah, it's like when do you want to experience the darkness? You want to experience it in the evening or in the morning? Yeah, I mean it's really. I don't know.
Jared
Yeah, he's. He also went like halftime of the Patriots. Falcon Super. Well, he left at halftime.
Miles
I saw that. That was controversy. Your brother hated that.
Jared
Oh, everybody does.
Tyler
Isn't he an Eagles guy? Wahlberg?
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
No, no, he's Patriots. Yeah.
Ryan
You're thinking Eagles because of the movie Invincible.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
And you're also.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
Bradley Cooper too.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Be Coop. Yeah, he's a easy English guy, all
Jared
kind of the same dude.
Tyler
That's wild of him.
Ryan
A Patriot.
Tyler
But if you do an Eagles movie.
Miles
But if, but if you know, Mark Wahlberg when he left would have said like something like got a bad. Thanks for understanding.
Tyler
Your brother would like him.
Jared
Yeah, it's true.
Miles
I've been there, man.
Ryan
He's like bedtime. Thanks for understanding. Yeah.
Jared
You know, you should play the super bowl during the day.
Ryan
That game probably didn't get over till like 10 o'.
Jared
Clock. It was first ever overtime game.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
First ever OT.
Miles
He's this close on an all nighter. If you just did
Ryan
TFU by the
Miles
time we got home. Been an all nighter. You guys ever in middle school, like think it was a badge of honor to pull an all nighter.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Oh my God. In is the dumbest thing on. On planet Earth.
Tyler
So stupid. I did it one. So when we used to vaccinate turkeys, the guy would come around and pick us all up at like 3:30. 4:00 clock in the morning and bring us to the barn. And I was staying at a friend's house before we had to do turkeys. And we were up till like 10:30 and that's when we usually would go to bed for turkeys. He's like, let's fucking stay up. One time we were zombies in the turkey bar. It was terrible.
Ryan
We did. They had like a lock in. This is.
Miles
Oh, yeah.
Ryan
Late middle school.
Miles
That must have been probably what, 2000, 2005.
Ryan
Yeah, 2004.
Miles
I think that ran rampant through middle schools across America to lock in.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
They would always do church ones too.
Ryan
Yep. Church ones. And we did ours at like the junior college in town.
Miles
And now they just do that as a drill like every week because they have to. They have to.
Ryan
Yeah. World's changing, guys.
Miles
Up.
Jared
This is fun.
Miles
Anymore.
Tyler
Thanks for understanding.
Miles
It used to be a good time and now it's not.
Ryan
I think. So. I. I'm pretty sure I slept for like 30 minutes that entire time.
Jared
So.
Miles
What.
Jared
What is a lock in?
Ryan
It's pretty much where just have a
Miles
sleepover at the school.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
And yeah, they have games to go and like that.
Ryan
I mean, it was. It was pretty fun.
Miles
It was sick.
Ryan
Got home at probably 8, 8am the next morning and I slept till 6pm I had to.
Miles
I walked home holding my shoes in my hands.
Tyler
Lock in. Walk of shame.
Miles
Yeah. My shirt was all untucked. Had my tire.
Tyler
Tire on your head.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
God, it gives me varsity blues.
Miles
Yeah. It was so just a walk of shame at the middle school. Lock.
Jared
Drink so much mellow yellow.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
Oh, my gosh.
Jared
Pizzas.
Tyler
You guys want to do a lock in here one time?
Ryan
Didn't we talk about doing that?
Tyler
They do a sleepover.
Miles
Well, we've been talking about maybe getting a different. Actually, this is actually before we even move on here, Jared and I were talking about maybe getting something other than these black chairs.
Tyler
Bug beds.
Miles
And I found. I found a vintage loveseat that's also. That's also a hide a bed. So we could do a slumber episode of YBR and we all could be in our jammies. We could record the podcast at like 11pm, you know? Yeah. Do a lock in episode.
Ryan
Well, again, we'd have to bring a blur out.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
You have to blur my entire body.
Jared
That's fine.
Miles
Wearing your pajamas.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Or do you wear the onesie with the butt flap on the back?
Ryan
I just wear boxers,
Miles
but yeah. So, I mean, you better enjoy these chairs now because Jared and I might Pull the rug on. You guys. You guys sit on the same chair,
Ryan
but if you pull the rug, if room's not tight. Yeah, we gotta keep the rug.
Tyler
So we can't do. Hide a bed. It'll cover the rug.
Miles
That's true. Figure it out.
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah, we'll work.
Miles
So this last weekend, when we record this. Well, this would have been. By the time this comes out. A couple weekends ago was Memorial Day weekend.
Jared
Yes.
Miles
Which at the lake. I just. I didn't do any fun. It just only worked. But one of the things. I was cleaning out my garage, and I was doing this thing where my goal was to get everything off the ground. Have you ever done that?
Ryan
Big time.
Miles
Mentally, a garage just feels better if everything's off the ground. Even if it's like three inches, but it's hanging on the wall, you feel instantly better.
Tyler
I think that's because it's. Even if it's 3 inches off the ground, you could sweep the whole thing without having to move.
Miles
And so I was doing that, and I cut some strips of wood to. To screw between the studs so then I could, like, put stuff behind it, and it could lean on it and would still stay upright. And I. This is six. I did 17 inches so that it would overlap each stud a little bit. And I put a level on it and tell you what, I was feeling good about the project up to this point, and then I put a level on it, and I was jacked. I don't know if you guys have ever felt this, but anytime you get a level involved with your project, you instantly feel like this went from a good project to, like, I'm in an elite territory. I used a level. I know that this is level. I. I'm. I might be Tim Allen from Home Improvement.
Tyler
I should seriously consider a professional cabinetry installation. Yeah, the most precise woodworking. I need to get into that now.
Miles
And then when your wife shows up, you're like, hey, you know that that's actually perfectly level.
Ryan
Level.
Tyler
Yeah.
Jared
She don't care.
Miles
She don't give a. That's something. My wife will never understand the joy that a level brings a man. Do you guys ever feel that?
Ryan
I. I brought a level to work this morning.
Tyler
You have one? I was gonna ask because I have some. I need to hang, but I'm like, I'm not hanging this till I have a level.
Ryan
No, it's just the best one in my office. And if you look. If you look at the. If you look at what I hung up, it looks a little bit crooked. But that's because right next to it is, like, some papers that are. Are tacked to a pegboard or whatever.
Miles
Pop a level on those.
Ryan
Hang on. I'm like, okay, that's. I measured it out. It's got to be level. Put the level on top, dead center.
Miles
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I did that. I put it on there. I screwed the first screw in and then was going to level it, and I was right on the nuts.
Ryan
Oh, my God.
Miles
And I actually laughed to myself, went,
Tyler
yeah, good for me.
Miles
It's like winning the lottery, getting something level without before you even level it.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah.
Tyler
At home, I have a laser level.
Miles
Oh, my God.
Tyler
So if it's a. If it's a painting or something, whatever I need to hang on the wall that has two hooks. Right. I just pound the one nail, set the level on it. Laser level tells me exactly where I need to do it. And it's just perfectly level. When you put it on the first time, it's the best.
Miles
It's combining two things that men love. Levels and lasers. Yeah. Levels. I have.
Ryan
No, I also have a laser level, but the, like, the part where you screw the tripod in or like the stand, whatever, is just broke off. So it's just a laser level that you cannot screw anything into. So if I'm trying to. If I'm trying to stack a boxes, I'm stack. I'm looking around like, okay, this couch cushion with that one. But then that's a little bit too big. So then I need a smaller tote to stack on top of this. And then here's two coffee table books that I could put. I like, I've had. Sometimes I've had to stack it at least five feet high.
Tyler
Okay.
Ryan
Hanging pictures above, like a. A. A bed frame or the bed. Yeah, yeah. Headboard, whatever. Yeah.
Tyler
So I have, like, that every night.
Miles
You're gonna have to re. Put them back up. You know what I'm saying? Type. Let's go. He's back. Dude, you're great watching that chair.
Tyler
You guys wouldn't have been able to do that dap if you were over here.
Miles
Yeah, we would have had to go like this.
Jared
Gas buffalo.
Tyler
I. I have, like a Swiss army level. It's. So I don't have the laser level on a stick.
Miles
It's Swiss.
Tyler
It's. Yeah, it's Swiss.
Miles
It's a.
Ryan
It's army.
Miles
Do they make. Do they make good levels over there in Switzerland?
Tyler
You don't get more level than the levels in Switzerland.
Miles
Didn't know that.
Tyler
It's It's a. Looks like a regular level with the bubble and everything. And then it has the laser that comes out.
Miles
So. Yeah, I got one of those.
Ryan
That.
Tyler
That's my laser level.
Ryan
You guys ever use the magnetic ones that they're like. It's a strong magnet that can magnetize to the screws in the Sheetrock.
Tyler
That's what mine is as well. So it's got the magnet on the one on the bottom part and then the bubble levels on the three sides and then the laser out of one end. So then I gotta turn it if I want to use the magnet and then the level goes across. Got it.
Ryan
Because see the one I have a magnet on, the one in my office, but it's not strong enough to adhere to the Sheetrock screws. Those are.
Miles
You gotta upgrade.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
Now are you guys going. You guys shooting for dead center? Obviously, or. As long as it's inside the black lines, are you cool with it?
Tyler
I mean, if I, if I care enough about it to use a level, I'm gonna get it perfect. But if I. If it's like a. A nothing, then I'm not even using.
Miles
If you're. If you're just getting it on the one side. If it's up against the black line, that's not level.
Ryan
Yeah, no, no, for sure.
Miles
Why we even. Let's just eyeball it at that point if we're just gonna fucking bump the bubble up to the black line.
Ryan
Because I'm thinking of. So I was put. When I was putting garage shelving up each. There's a bracket that goes on every stud. And by the 12th bracket, I'm like it. I don't even care anymore. So we. We were touching. We were touching. I know I should have used a laser, but I. I didn't have enough because I have 11 foot ceilings in my garage.
Tyler
You're out of totes.
Ryan
I didn't have anything else. I didn't have anything else to stack on top. But I mean, that's fine.
Miles
So. Yeah, I mean, so. So I mean your shelves aren't level.
Ryan
Then just like. Like the very. Maybe two brackets. But then zip ties. I can zip tie. Zip tie the, the grate down. It looks totally fine. Stack a bunch of on top, you won't even notice.
Miles
But we know now. Well, you know, actually like I. I hate that you making me live with this.
Jared
Yeah.
Tyler
Thanks for understanding. It'll be fine.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
No.
Miles
Hey, you were tired.
Ryan
I've been doing. I've been standing on concrete doing this for three hours. Thanks. For understanding.
Miles
All right, I get that. But next time I'm at your house, let's pop a level on it.
Ryan
Sure.
Miles
Let's get it.
Ryan
Yeah. We just get it done, Papa Levy.
Miles
We'll get it done.
Ryan
Well, here's the thing. They were from China, too. And I don't even think this. I don't even think the steel was straight. I think it was crooked.
Jared
Yeah. Blame China.
Tyler
Yeah. Smart.
Ryan
Easiest thing to do.
Miles
Shells are from China. Thanks for understanding.
Ryan
Yeah, thanks for understanding. It's easy. People blame Timu all the time. Why can't I just blame China as a whole?
Jared
Do you want it done or do you want it done right? Right, man.
Ryan
I want it to be.
Miles
You're a done right guy.
Ryan
Yeah. Job finished, John. Not finished.
Jared
Okay. Yeah.
Miles
I mean, it's a. It's starting to look a little bit like the shiplab trim, but very similar. Very similar.
Ryan
I mean, yeah, it's. It's in the garage. It's fine.
Jared
I get it.
Ryan
Garage ain't perfect.
Miles
Yeah, it's a hit. Hey, that's good. Good spin zone.
Tyler
Imperfectly perfect. Gotta have garage beak. Have some character.
Ryan
And it's not. It's not. That wall isn't. It's not mudded. It's not textured. It's not painted. I just got one wall.
Jared
Yeah. If it was level, it'd probably throw the feng shui.
Ryan
It would.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah. It would just be. What, am I in the house now or. No, you're in the garage.
Tyler
Yeah, this is a doctor's office. Or is this a garage?
Ryan
It's a garage. Can't you see my pickup is backed up?
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Did you see my trailer hitch two feet over the sidewalk right here?
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah. If you're gonna go get something in the fridge, watch your knees because my
Tyler
pitch is sticking out your shins, bro. They're gone.
Ryan
Don't tell Jared's brother.
Tyler
Somebody called Jared's brother
Miles
Ryan? You know, some people put a tennis ball hanging from the ceiling to know how far to go in. Ryan, just as soon as his hitch taps the fridge, he's like, I'm far enough in.
Jared
It just, like, moves a little bit.
Tyler
He's got a bell on the top of his fridge, so when it hits
Miles
it, it just jingles a little. Not a bad idea.
Ryan
No, not at all.
Miles
You could reinforce it. Put a steel plate where you're hitting the trims into.
Tyler
Yep.
Miles
Good luck getting into the fridge. Hey, you want something to drink? Yeah, that'd be great. You got a beer out here? Yeah, just hold on. I gotta pull my truck out, take my keys.
Jared
Yeah, you put like an empty cardboard box on top of your fridge, and when you hit the fridge and it falls over, that means you backfired enough.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah.
Miles
It's like one of those. It's like one of those videos where they, like, push a ball and then it goes down and Chain reaction and they go all the way. Yeah.
Tyler
What are those called?
Jared
I don't know.
Tyler
They have a name for those contraptions.
Miles
I don't know.
Ryan
God, I don't know.
Tyler
Big fan of them, though.
Ryan
I know what you're talking about.
Miles
Oh, well, guys, it's good to be in the new studio. Ryan, are you warming up to the spot at least a little bit?
Ryan
No, I'm totally fine. I was totally fine after. I just. I just got to be shitty, like I said.
Jared
Yeah, I feel like you're good.
Ryan
I'm totally fine.
Miles
All right.
Ryan
I'm finding my way.
Miles
All right, guys, well, we're excited to be in new studio. We're gonna take a break. We're gonna come back with some stuff. All right, guys, I don't know about where you're at, but it was 90 degrees out this. This today and this week. And we're still. We're still at the beginning of summer here. And tell you what, my shady rays came in quite handy over the weekend.
Ryan
It shaded the rays.
Miles
It actually didn't come in quite handy. It came in quite facey for me.
Tyler
Nice.
Miles
So, yeah, see what?
Ryan
Thanks for understanding.
Miles
Yeah, I'm still workshopping jokes. Thanks for understanding, you know. Or would it be more ie than. Than facey? No, it's because it goes on your face. Doesn't go on your eyes.
Tyler
It rests on your nose. Maybe it's nosy.
Miles
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It came in nosy over the weekend.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
These shady ray glasses. And if you guys are in the market for some glasses, which you should be because it's. The sun is under heated.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
And if you're going to stare into the sun like I like to, you're going to make sure you have some eye protection.
Ryan
Can I tell you guys a story real quick?
Jared
Absolutely.
Ryan
I'm. Last week was week four of trap shooting league. I'm in trap shooting league, by the way.
Tyler
Nice.
Ryan
I just got these guys in right here. These are the new tactical shaders.
Miles
You wore those for the. No, no, no.
Ryan
I haven't worn these yet. I was wearing the apex ones that Jared has.
Miles
Jared has.
Ryan
I've been wearing those for track for trap league. First week 23 of 25. 22 of 25. Second week. 20 and 20, week three and four. So I'm looking to change things up a little bit with these new tacties.
Miles
I mean, you still got to be on top of your. Your league, right?
Ryan
Oh, yeah.
Miles
You got to be top five.
Ryan
I think it's handy. First four weeks handicap too, so I. I screwed.
Tyler
So you, you're purposely, you're sandbagging the last couple.
Ryan
25. 25. Because I got the tacticals now, so I'm gonna go 25. 25.
Miles
Yeah. I mean, whether you're on the boat, whether you're in the trap, trap league, trap shooting league, or you're just going for a road trip this summer, you got to go to shadyrays.com they have, as you can see from all of us, they have a plethora of. Plethora of shades. And right now you can get 50 off two or more polarized glasses on shadyrays.com. all you got to use is code YBR. Go check it out again. Use code YBR again, 50 off two or more polarized glasses. All right, Jared, what do we got today?
Jared
We have another draft.
Miles
We have another draft. We've been hammering drafts lately.
Jared
I like drafts.
Miles
You like drafts? I like drafts.
Ryan
NBA drafts coming up.
Jared
Yeah, it's always draft season.
Ryan
Yeah.
Jared
NHL after that and then about, you know, eight months.
Ryan
MLB draft is coming up soon.
Jared
Oh, yeah. So it's always draft season. We're like Mel Kuiper always working on the draft.
Ryan
Yeah, this is a good one too, actually.
Tyler
Yeah, this is very good.
Jared
The draft is worst text messages to get.
Miles
Okay, who goes first? We. I'm. I'm all out of sorts here.
Jared
Ryan, you want to go first?
Ryan
No, I'm not prepared.
Miles
You.
Jared
You pick. You pick who goes first.
Ryan
Just because I've been working hard lately.
Tyler
Yeah,
Miles
I mean, okay, but here's the thing. The way you, the way you act about having to work hard makes me feel like I need to acknowledge how hard you're working. Even though you're like, I don't do it for the prince. But then you walk around asking for praise about how hard you've been working.
Ryan
No, I don't.
Miles
You know, like, I don't come home from a bellied up trip when I've done nine pot, 11 podcasts, two YouTube videos, and six short form videos. Walking around being like, oh, sure was working hard this last week. I wish someone would tell me how hard I was working.
Tyler
I kind of think you've done exactly that on this podcast before. Like sad. They're like, I've just did 15.
Miles
Well, no, I just wanted to ignore. Acknowledge the, the work that is being done because it goes on. Yeah. But that's mostly to. To warn you guys about that I may have mush brain.
Tyler
Okay.
Miles
That I, you know, that I might be jet lagged.
Jared
All don't ask me important questions.
Miles
That is true. But I'm not looking for you guys to say like good job. You've never. And you've also never said that.
Ryan
That you don't like being told good job.
Tyler
Yeah, you don't.
Ryan
You get uncomfortable.
Miles
I do. I do.
Tyler
I'm gonna start saying good job. Thanks for understanding. So you don't get uncomfortable. Yeah, I'm gonna give you a compliment. Thanks for understanding.
Miles
Do you want me to tell you more how good of a job you're doing? Because I feel like I do. I don't.
Ryan
I'm not trying to give that vibe off at all. I think I'm maybe just head down trying to get after it.
Jared
I think you just need to take some time off.
Tyler
I think you need.
Miles
I think. I think you've just had your. Your head too far in a cardboard too long.
Tyler
I think you need to get out of.
Miles
You come up for air.
Tyler
I think you need to go to the lake and just get really drunk by yourself on a tube or something.
Jared
Yeah, you need to get drunk.
Ryan
Shot.96 on Sunday, by the way, probably didn't help things.
Jared
That's terrible.
Miles
Also that's Tyler's worst nightmare. He doesn't want to hear what you shot. And I was actually. I had golf league yesterday.
Tyler
You did tell me earlier today.
Miles
I was like, tyler, kudos to you for bringing that up job. I was this close to talking about what how golf league went yesterday and I decided not to because I said Tyler doesn't give a fuck.
Tyler
Thank you.
Miles
It was easy as that.
Jared
That I told him what my lunch was.
Tyler
You did tell me a story from golf league and I enjoyed that story.
Miles
Yes. Yeah, I actually I had. I was. There was a turning point, a fork stuck in the road and time grabbed me by the wrist and directed me where to go and that I could have told him how well I did. We did win, by the way. Or I could tell him this funny story and I told him the funny story.
Tyler
Yeah, it was a good story.
Ryan
I walked past year today and I was it today or yesterday. His lunch actually looked really good and I don't. I didn't know where it was from. So instead of asking him what he was eating for lunch. I asked him where he got it.
Miles
Is that better, Jared, or still terrible?
Jared
I'm fine with it.
Ryan
And then he proceeded to tell me what it was, and I said, stop. I said, I'm gonna stop you right there, didn't I?
Tyler
To your own question.
Ryan
I'm gonna stop you right there. I don't want to know it. I don't want to know what it is. I'm gonna stop you right there.
Jared
I think he says something. You keep eating or something.
Ryan
Yeah, you keep eating.
Miles
Me stop.
Ryan
I'm stopping right there.
Tyler
You keep eating.
Ryan
I don't want to. I don't care what it is.
Miles
And also now I am so paranoid about asking Jared where people are because he was bitching about it that one time that I have. There's been multiple times now, I think, since then, I haven't asked you where someone is.
Jared
Yeah, that's gonna be a lot easier.
Ryan
I.
Miles
More so just walk around frowning, kind of looking in stuff, going like, God, where is Ryan?
Tyler
Just ask it to the vo.
Miles
You do know where Ryan is. You'll tell me. If you don't, you'll just keep working.
Jared
It'll be a lot easier now.
Tyler
It's going to be way easier to find Ryan.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
In this. In the new office, 100%.
Ryan
I'm pumped about that.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
His head's going to be in a cardboard box for the next couple months.
Ryan
Yeah, that's fine.
Tyler
Not next week, though. You take that week off.
Ryan
Nope.
Jared
You take time.
Tyler
You. You should.
Miles
So that being said, you've been working hard lately, and so you get to pick who goes first.
Tyler
What a reward.
Ryan
It's like a reward. I'm gonna have Jared go first.
Tyler
Oh, nice.
Jared
Do you want to go clockwise or counterclockwise?
Ryan
Let's go counter.
Tyler
That's close.
Ryan
All right, clockwise.
Jared
Get. Somebody's after me.
Ryan
Yep.
Jared
Okay.
Miles
All right. All right. Worst text to get.
Ryan
Snake draft.
Miles
Yep.
Jared
This is a good 1k
Miles
simple period or.
Jared
No, no period.
Miles
Just K Lowercase or uppercase?
Jared
Uppercase.
Miles
Uppercase is infinitely worse than lowercase K for some reason.
Ryan
What if it's a capital K followed by a lowercase K?
Tyler
Better.
Jared
That's better.
Miles
What?
Ryan
I would agree.
Miles
Three K's in a row could be worse than one.
Jared
That number.
Miles
Yeah. Block them. I agree.
Jared
Just the right answer.
Miles
That is the right answer. You passed the test, Jared. That was the test. So just 1k.
Jared
1k.
Miles
Yeah. I think I'm gonna take. For my first worst text to get is my wife texting me. Just call me. Oh, I took by because I know something didn't go well.
Tyler
Yep.
Miles
It could be something's broke on the house. Could be that my kid's bleeding. It could be that. But then it also could just be like, what do you want for dinner tonight?
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
Yeah, you know, or like, what? Oh, I was wondering about what your schedule is on Friday. You know, but there's always the chance that it's something bad, and I hate that. That it's not good.
Ryan
I.
Miles
If you pair that with a missed call already.
Ryan
Yeah, see, I. I was going to say when some. When anybody texts, give me a. Give me a call when you have a chance.
Tyler
That's because then if they're. That was exactly mine too. Because if they say when you have a chance or when you have time, it means they're being considerate of your feelings, which means it's going to be bad news.
Miles
Oh, see, I don't. I don't have that tape.
Ryan
Not necessarily bad news. It was more so just like, God, now I have to call them back.
Miles
So my, My head is, is like, oh, I got time to call him back.
Tyler
Sure, yeah, if. So if my dad.
Miles
Because then they could just go. If they go like, oh, you forgot to call me, you can just say, I haven't had a chance.
Ryan
And that's true. That's true. Thanks for understanding.
Miles
Thanks for understand. I haven't had a chance. Thanks for understanding.
Jared
Best text to get is next Friday.
Tyler
Because, like, if my dad just texts me, call me, then I know it's going to be something short, easy, whatever. But if he's like, call me when you get a chance.
Miles
I'm like, oh, the sender does matter.
Tyler
Yeah.
Ryan
My father in law, he'll just text me. He'll just text me.
Tyler
Call. Sure.
Ryan
Sweet.
Miles
To the point. I know there's more words when few words do trick.
Ryan
Because why say call me? Like, of course I would call you. You're the one saying the text, you know, call. That's an inside joke that not many of you understand.
Miles
You guys wouldn't get it. You guys don't know it.
Jared
I got it.
Miles
I think we told that bit on the podcast at some point.
Ryan
Yeah, probably.
Tyler
Maybe.
Miles
Maybe Patreon. They all blend together.
Ryan
Worst text to get.
Miles
So that's. You drafted that already? Nope.
Ryan
No, I think it was too, Too. I think it was too close to yours.
Tyler
Yeah, I'm with you. I was going to take it off the table for myself too.
Miles
Oh, you were saying? That's what you were going to say.
Ryan
That's what I was going to say.
Miles
Good Loophole though.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Get the vibe of the room. If no one likes it. That's what I wasn't going to draft.
Tyler
I was just. Yeah, I'm just talking, you know, like,
Miles
that's actually like right off the top. Like that's smart for the draft for like the NFL draft. What, like what they should do is like tweet out who they're gonna pick. So it's not official pick, right? Yeah. We're going to pick this person right at the. When the clock starts and then they use the, the how people respond to that on who they're going to pick from that.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
To appease the fans.
Ryan
That's actually a good point. Point.
Jared
You know that kind of does happen with like contract negotiations with free agency
Ryan
because like, I mean the Giants would. I mean they'd have been cold on Daniel Jones when they drafted him had they sent the tweet out earlier. People hated that draft pick.
Tyler
He won him a playoff game against the Vikings.
Ryan
I'm gonna take, I'm just gonna take ETA question mark.
Tyler
Really?
Jared
Literally.
Ryan
And that's because now that's your number one worst. No, but I think I can get. I. No, it's. Well, you guys took my top 10.
Jared
You should have felt that out in the room before you said it.
Ryan
I'm gonna take. Here's why I'm taking ETA question mark. Because now I have to provide a. I have to provide a time of when I'm gonna be back. It's now not open ended anymore. So hey, if I want to stop in the clubhouse and have a. Absolutely pummel some brewskis now I can't because I don't know how long that that scenario is going to go on for.
Miles
So here's the thing. I'm only texting ETA? When the person's already late and it's now causing me issues. Sure. Like, like if j. If I'm like, hey Jared, come over for dinner. And I was like, yeah, just be there around 6 and like I'm not asking if he's like, hey, I'm not going to text him and go ETA question mark mark. But if it gets to be 7:15 and he's not showing up, then I'm firing off ETA, question mark for him
Tyler
to know, are you.
Miles
So it's basically where the are you? And I do think. I think it's worse to get like. It is what Terrible one to get.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
In that sense. Because if you, if you look at it like this is definitely like where the Are you.
Ryan
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. For sure.
Tyler
Yeah, me. Yep.
Miles
Yep.
Ryan
Okay. Actually, you traded your first round.
Miles
I don't know. This is first time in front of the lights. Thanks for understanding.
Tyler
Yes. You guys aren't there yet, but you will be soon. When your kid goes to school, they'll have some sort of messaging system. And when your wife texts you, did you see the message from seesaw or whatever you guys end up using? Did you see the message from. And then your heart drops like, what did my fucking kid do? What is happening today?
Miles
And then have you seen the video where the parents are celebrating me because their kid got bit and they weren't the ones that did?
Tyler
Yeah. If. If it's. That's crazy. If it's. Charlie got hurt by another kid, I'm like, fucking thank God he didn't punch anybody.
Miles
But also, fuck that other kid.
Tyler
Yeah. But it's. It's off my ass. And then my next one is be something along the lines from my wife. Did you remember to blank? Because I definitely didn't remember to do you blank.
Ryan
No. And speaking of taking the chicken out thaw, my dad, he brought over like this tote of like hamburger packages and roasts and like that. When we were transferring them from one tote to another one so I could bring them downstairs. We might. We must have just dropped one underneath of my kids trampoline. And this was five days ago. And I just know this morning.
Jared
Oh, no.
Ryan
So that's Chuck roast. Roast. I had to throw it away. That's good. Chuck roast too.
Tyler
Raccoon bait.
Ryan
Anyway,
Tyler
that was. I did mine.
Ryan
Okay, I'm gonna go with. Hey, remember, the kids don't have daycare this Friday.
Miles
Very specific.
Tyler
No, that. That was gonna go.
Miles
I think you could have got that one last. You could have got that one.
Ryan
Wow. I sent the. I sent the.
Miles
Preach the pre.
Ryan
What are we calling the tweet at the pre. Tweet.
Miles
Sweet. That was just a feeling.
Tyler
The VI gauge. You all smart.
Ryan
What do you guys think about that one?
Tyler
Dig another pig. You've been working hard.
Miles
Take another one, take a check swing and then, you know, regroup.
Ryan
Check swing, but accidentally hit it a pitcher foul ball. Anyway here. The reason I'm taking it is
Tyler
in
Ryan
this situation, I've probably already had most of the day, most of Friday planned out. Out in terms of like, hey, maybe I'll golf in the morning. Do this. Kids don't have daycare. Okay, well, if we. If we get a babysitter, I'm not just gonna be at home with the babysitter, you know, If I'm mowing lawn or like that. So, yeah, I can. I can. I can crush some Friday plans pretty quick. I love hanging out with my kids. But when I. When I. Don't get me wrong, thanks for understanding. But when you have full day plan, it's like, oh, all right now.
Jared
Yeah, it's tough.
Ryan
So, yeah, I probably got that a throne.
Miles
No, that's fine. So this is my second pick in the draft.
Jared
Yep.
Miles
I think that one of the worst test texts to get is, sorry your grandpa died. And you don't know that your grandpa died already.
Jared
Oh, that is bad.
Miles
Yeah, that happened to me. I was doing an event, and then Ann texted me me. My mom said, call me after. So I kind of knew. But then I yelled on my phone. I'm like, really? And I think you should have called me and not just texted me that my grandpa died.
Jared
Spoiler alert.
Miles
Yeah.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
So if this draft is real, that's definitely one of the worst tech texts to get.
Tyler
So did she put thanks for understanding to soften?
Miles
She did not. It didn't soften it at all.
Ryan
She, like, direct, like, DM'd you on Twitter. Hey, sorry your grandpa died.
Tyler
Hey, we're married. But here's a DM to Twitter. Sorry about grandpa.
Ryan
And I'm not laughing at the fact that your grandpa passed away. I'm laughing at and texting you about it instead of calling.
Miles
Yeah.
Ryan
So wasn't she at the.
Miles
If I'm taking this draft seriously. That's up there.
Tyler
Okay. Follow that up, Jared.
Jared
I get two. Who's this? That's a bad text to get. What do you, like, do a long text message to a number you're not quite sure of of. And then they text back, who's this?
Tyler
Yeah, Yeah.
Ryan
I always. I always lay my full name, Social Security number, all that out just so that I never get that text.
Miles
That is true. I am always saying, like, hey, this is miles from this person. And if it's like, so and so gave me your number, so they get all the information. You're just raw dogging numbers. You don't know. Oh, you're just like, hey, what's up?
Jared
I'll be like, yeah, this is Jared. And that's it. And then. Yeah.
Miles
And they go, who is this? And you just go, this is Jared.
Jared
Yeah.
Ryan
Yeah,
Jared
not good.
Miles
Not good. But I. I know what you're talking about. Just even. Who's this? Right.
Jared
Next one is, I don't know if this is similar. When you coming home. Is that similar to the eta?
Miles
It's different.
Ryan
Okay.
Miles
That's coming from your wife.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah. More than likely, right?
Jared
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Miles
I'm not nest. I'm not texting an necessarily eta.
Tyler
Hey.
Jared
Okay.
Tyler
But yeah, you can. That counts.
Jared
Okay.
Tyler
You can have it.
Miles
This is not one that I'm picking,
Ryan
but one thing you're feeling.
Tyler
Are you sure?
Miles
It's what I'm actually not feeling. I just. It's an honorable mention, you know, agency. And it's not one I pick because it's not very relatable when I'm on the road and an started texting me about how my kid isn't going to sleep and she's getting frustrated kid. It's the worst because there's nothing I can do.
Tyler
Right.
Ryan
I got that this last weekend.
Miles
That sucks.
Ryan
It very much so.
Miles
And then on the other side of the spectrum, when I'm putting him to bed and she's gone, I'm like, if he's not going to bed, I don't want to text her.
Tyler
You don't want her. You don't have time to text.
Ryan
You're trying to get your kid to bed.
Miles
Well, that, but. Well, that I agree. But it's also like, I don't want her to feel what I feel when she texts.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
I'm sparing her the emotional baggage.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
That sucks. Because then what do you say? Like, damn, that sucks.
Ryan
I think that was the first what I led with right away because like,
Tyler
the feeling is, damn, that sucks. But what do you want me to do about it? Like, if I could help you, I would, but I can't.
Ryan
Yeah. The good ones to lead with is, damn, that sucks.
Miles
Geez.
Ryan
Like something after that.
Tyler
I'm sorry that's happening.
Miles
Yeah. And it's like, you can't be like, well, did you try this? Because then she's gonna like, yes, of course I did.
Jared
Haha. Damn.
Miles
Yeah, that sucks, dog. That actually sucks a lot.
Tyler
You ever try putting whiskey on their pacifier? I can give that a shot.
Miles
Rubbing some rum on their guns.
Ryan
Yeah, you should take that one. That's a solid pick.
Miles
All right, I'll take it.
Tyler
Yeah.
Jared
Pass the poop test.
Miles
I picked that one.
Ryan
Can I. Can I do two in a row? Since I got. At least leave.
Tyler
Go for it. You've been working hard.
Miles
You've been working hard. You earned this.
Ryan
Okay.
Miles
Appreciate that I'm gonna be able to do that. You have to go like this instead.
Ryan
Let's see. Third pick. I'm gonna. I'm gonna go with. We gotta get together sometime.
Miles
Yeah, you're never getting together.
Ryan
No, we're not getting together. Well, and I gotta respond to that.
Jared
Yeah, for sure, man.
Tyler
That's the answer.
Miles
Yeah. Just let me know when you're available.
Ryan
Give me your event.
Miles
Give me your avails.
Ryan
I'll share my calendar with you. I'll share my Google calendar with you.
Miles
Just send me over a g invite.
Tyler
It's honestly about cal invite.
Ryan
Yeah, G cow.
Tyler
A halfway is decent.
Miles
A gin bite. That sounds derogatory in some sense, doesn't it?
Jared
Kinda sounds like you're getting up on gin.
Tyler
Yeah, like a gin is a genie.
Miles
Send me a g. A g vite.
Tyler
That sounds like a bug.
Ryan
Yeah, sounds like gingivitis.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
Yeah, it does suck.
Tyler
Is it a movie? You should have just like a separate gmail and then just fill that fucking calendar up with random non Non real things.
Ryan
Yeah.
Tyler
And then be like, hey man, this is my calendar. I'm booked.
Miles
I'm sorry, Ryan. Sheely01gmail.com and just pump it full of reoccurring busy blocks, juggling practice.
Ryan
It just has to say busy. Yeah, yeah. Y mowing call.
Tyler
You know, call with Tim, call with Jim.
Ryan
Lot of calls.
Miles
Call with Kim.
Tyler
Y.
Ryan
Head in box all month.
Tyler
Head in sand.
Ryan
All right. My fourth and final pick. Hey, man, not going to be able to make the tea time. Oh, and we're talking like within 24 hours. Yeah, if you give me at least a 48 hour notice. Totally fine. I get it. Life happens. But I've had this happen like night before an early morning tea time lady
Jared
texted back, gee, we should get together sometime.
Miles
When's your next avail? Send over a invite.
Ryan
Oh, we can, we can. Yeah, let's circle back on this next week. I'll send you an invite. Fight. Send you gcal.
Jared
Damn, that sucks.
Ryan
Damn. Oh gosh.
Miles
That.
Ryan
It's kind of like the. The. The wife at home with the kids. Struggling with kids. Oh, shoot. Dang it.
Tyler
That blows, bro.
Ryan
But also you're an for doing that.
Tyler
Now I gotta think about it.
Ryan
And now I gotta cancel. I'll get charged for it. So I'm gonna ven venmo request you 100 bucks.
Jared
Was 50, but I need 100.
Ryan
Yeah. Inconvenience fee. Anyway, that's my draft.
Miles
Yeah. Good job, Ryan.
Jared
Thanks, Ryan.
Ryan
I'm headed out.
Miles
Yeah, well, no, we got stuff to do tomorrow.
Ryan
Yeah, I'll be here tomorrow.
Miles
Take Friday off. Yeah, you. Dude, this whole time. I know, but this whole time you're bitching about working hard yard and you don't even work Fridays,
Jared
different job at home mowing lawns.
Tyler
You said, is he moonlighting as a lawnmower?
Miles
I don't know what he's doing.
Tyler
Me either.
Miles
I sometimes
Jared
fresh wash his driveway.
Miles
He said he's gotta go, but now he's just in the bathroom yelling, go ahead, Tyler. You're up next.
Tyler
All right, next pick. I had a really good one, and I lost it after the Ryan shenanigans. Oh, I got it. I got it. You got a truck, right?
Jared
Oh, good one.
Tyler
I'm about to get roped into helping somebody move.
Miles
Yes.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
And so for your. What's your final one?
Tyler
It'd probably be from miles. It'd be like, why is the po. A post like this?
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
And I'm like, I don't know. I didn't even look. Why is it like that? I don't know. And then your heart drops and it's like, oh, okay.
Miles
And I've been trying to find a way to get stuff fixed like that without making it seem like I'm mad and. Or think it's the most urgent thing. Unless, like, if it is urgent, I'll try and say that. But there's stuff where it's like, oh, why did the banner. Why did we choose that banner? I'm not. It's really tough to send out a text like that, right?
Tyler
It's like key and feel and not sound like, this is the worst banner I've ever seen, you dumbass.
Miles
No, it's just like a mis. Because it's usually like, oh, I thought we were doing this other one. Can you just inform me how we got to. That is what I want it to say, but it. What it says actually is you guys are morons for doing. This is how it comes off. And there's no good way to do that.
Tyler
Yeah.
Jared
Yeah. It's the Key and peel skit. Have you seen that? That.
Miles
Yeah. Where, like, you. How you. How you say it versus how it is. It's like.
Jared
It's exactly like that.
Miles
You know, I said it. I'm like, I thought we were. I thought we were going with a different banner than this. And Tyree is like, hey, Stick.
Tyler
Yeah?
Miles
You suck. Why'd you do that banner? So I. Yeah, I get that.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Is this my fourth and final. My fourth and final draft pick is a. Just, just, just. Any text from my door dash driver? Oh, because if your door dash driver's texting you, that means something's not going right.
Tyler
They never text you. Be like, hey, thanks for picking me.
Miles
Yeah. They never go like, Hey, I would have ordered the same thing, man. You got great taste buds. It's always like they lost your order or I'm at the restaurant and your ain't ready yet. It's always something like that. That. And so if I'm getting a text from that, it's never good.
Jared
Yeah, it's never like the roads are perfect, there's no traffic.
Miles
If we got a flawless pickup and delivery, you're getting no texts. And yeah, every once in a while though, there is an over communicating doordash driver. And I actually don't like that.
Jared
It's too much.
Miles
They think that they're giving you peace of mind of being like, hey, I got your order, I'm on my way. It's like, well, I know that because I've been following. I've been following your location on the map, following your little car the whole time. I know that.
Tyler
You should just text back. I know. I'm tracking you.
Jared
Yeah, I. This app right now.
Tyler
I haven't. Since you accepted the order.
Miles
I haven't blinked since you accepted the order.
Jared
I have satellites tracking you. Right.
Tyler
I casted your order to the tv. My whole family.
Miles
I already ran your plates and know everything about you. Just. Just put the fries in on my front doorstep.
Tyler
Be careful coming down 42nd. I see you got a ticket there once.
Miles
The best doordash driver is what? They don't say anything.
Jared
The one you forgot about.
Miles
Yeah, yeah, but. So that's mine.
Jared
Last pick. Let's see. I got two. I like, I kind of want to feel them out.
Miles
Well, yeah, just. Which one were you maybe gonna choose?
Jared
I was gonna say, could you grab this?
Miles
And who's that from?
Jared
My wife.
Miles
Yeah, from like the store. You mean on the way home?
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
I don't mind that. I. Is it weird that I feel useful in those scenarios?
Jared
Was.
Tyler
No, I think that's fine because I've. My wife texts me stuff, picks stuff up on my drive home, and I have a long drive home, so I always forget. So the times I do remember, I feel like I'm. I'm a chill.
Miles
Very useful. If my wife's like, hey, swing by Walmart and grab this.
Jared
I think what, what hurts the most is that like she'll already be at the store and then text me that like half hour later, like, you go, she forgot something.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
That sucks.
Tyler
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Miles
Sucks.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Let's maybe hear your other one.
Jared
Just a simple. You suck.
Miles
Yeah.
Tyler
Who's texting that to you?
Jared
I don't think I've ever Got. Yeah, that would. That would hurt.
Miles
Unless it's like, when. When you and your wife first started dating, she's like, you suck. That's awesome. Text to get. Yeah.
Jared
So kind of debate.
Miles
Save that one for. For awesome text to get draft.
Jared
You suck. So do you. Yeah.
Miles
All right, so mine was. I don't even remember what my first pick was. Do you guys remember?
Jared
I remember.
Tyler
Yeah. It was the. Call me.
Miles
Call me. Your grandpa died. You took it serious. It sucks. I took it there. Hey, literal. He won't fall asleep deep. Doordash and doordash. I feel pretty good about that lineup.
Tyler
I don't remember Ryan's.
Miles
Yeah, when you dip out early, you know, get. You know, get a recap.
Ryan
Yep.
Tyler
I had. Did you see the message from school? Did you remember to blank? You got a truck, right? And Miles, why is this like this?
Miles
That's true. I do. I'll switch it up next time.
Tyler
It's like 90% of the time, it ends up being nothing, but it's just my heart drops.
Miles
I'm like, why did I up.
Jared
Maybe use a few emojis,
Miles
do the
Tyler
silly face emoji, then I'll know it's chill.
Jared
But when somebody's angry, they never use emojis, so I think that would diffuse it a little bit.
Tyler
So Miles doesn't use emojis ever, really? I don't think so, though.
Miles
I don't know. I use laughing, crying face a lot.
Jared
Why is it better like this?
Miles
Which I found out is very millennial of me? Gen Z apparently does not use emojis at all. That they. Like. I've seen tik Tok videos of, like, when, you know, you're texting a millennial, and it's like they use a bunch of emojis and lol and. And Gen Z doesn't use any emojis, and they. Instead, they just type out, like, dead instead of like, I'm dying.
Tyler
The last time you texted me an emoji was January 31st of this year. Yeah, and we text a lot.
Miles
And what was it? Not appropriate.
Tyler
It's four laughing, crying face emojis with a text message.
Miles
Yeah, see? Man of my word. Man of my word.
Tyler
Yeah, you. We. Yeah, we don't ever. I. The only time I've ever sent you one was yesterday.
Miles
You sent Jared emojis.
Tyler
Jared and I don't text a lot.
Jared
We don't talk.
Tyler
Yeah, we.
Ryan
Okay.
Tyler
Outside of this, we're kind of enemies.
Miles
I've also started to put those. Why is this, like this? Messages in. In a Slap slack group message to know that I'm not singling out one person. And for you guys to be a group problem solver instead of me texting you Tyler and you feeling like it's your fault.
Tyler
Yeah, it's spread the blame out slice of the pie.
Miles
You got a fun fact for us, Jared?
Jared
Yeah, I didn't have time to research. Venus spins backwards. Unlike most planets in our solar system, Venus rotates on its axis and a retrograde motion, meaning the sun rises in the west and sets in the east.
Tyler
That's kind of neat.
Miles
That is weird. Completely inhabitable. So we'll never know what that's like.
Tyler
Yeah, a lot of carbon dioxide. Astroph.
Miles
Hot too.
Tyler
Astrophage needs it to reproduce.
Miles
You guys wouldn't know that.
Jared
I don't know that one.
Miles
From Project Hail Mary.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Oh, spoiler alert.
Tyler
I watched the movie recently.
Miles
Should I watch it? I was gonna watch it. I forgot.
Tyler
They did a good job.
Ryan
Okay.
Tyler
They adapted it.
Miles
Well, I'm very lukewarm on that book.
Tyler
I liked it a lot. I'm not giving it a 10, but I thoroughly enjoyed the whole.
Miles
Yeah. Like, as I read it in bed, I just didn't get rock hard, which
Tyler
is wild because it's about space.
Jared
I know.
Miles
I did pick up the Expanse series again.
Tyler
Again. Did you?
Miles
I'm into it. I'm back into it.
Tyler
We can do book club with. With Ryan.
Miles
Go Ryan.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Right. At this point, he would have done something insane. Temper t. He would throw in a temper.
Tyler
The table would have been flipped.
Miles
He just. He just want space. That's what he done. Something like that. You guys want to read? Like.
Jared
You guys want to talk about something cool? You'd see us up like that.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
He goes, oh, why don't we talk about something cool like Jocko and David Gon.
Tyler
Or. He would have tried to, like, relate, but as a smart ass, like, oh, yeah, I really like Project no Marys.
Jared
He's been working a lot. Give him a break.
Tyler
He's been working a lot in the
Miles
cardboard box for month.
Tyler
I'm in his chair.
Jared
He was super tense at the beginning.
Tyler
He was. I made a joke to try and cut the tension. After he. He.
Jared
He.
Tyler
After he found out he doesn't get this chair. I'm like, we can hold hands now. And he's like, no, that didn't help. I thought maybe he, like, get a half a chuckle because obviously I'm not serious.
Jared
Or half a chub.
Tyler
Yeah, maybe that was it. He was scared of the sexual tension.
Miles
Now I. I will have to say the amount of stuff he's either sold and or gotten rid of over the last six months has been a lot.
Tyler
It's astounding the amount of things he's slowing on Facebook. Marketplace.
Miles
But as we phased out the merchandise, that was just kind of its job.
Tyler
Yep.
Miles
So. But now I. Once we get everything unpacked, you can
Tyler
finally get rid of it.
Miles
He's gonna be chilling. He's gonna be leaving at 3:30. It's no use for me.
Tyler
I'm just kidding, Ryan. You're. You're a life.
Miles
Or. No, he'll. But the thing is, is then he'll just find something else to be really busy about and then do the same thing. You know what I mean?
Jared
He's just burnt out. He just needs to take time off.
Tyler
He needs a single day to just do nothing. Not go home and do chores. Ryan. Just nothing.
Jared
Yeah.
Tyler
I don't know if he's capable of doing that though.
Miles
We'll see.
Jared
We'll see. Table tell.
Miles
I've. I've been very. I, I've. I'm trying to be as accommodating as possible. Said take your time off.
Tyler
Off.
Miles
You done. You ran the. You ran the race. You fought the good fight.
Tyler
Whatever.
Miles
The do your time. Buy. I don't know, just take some time off. All right, guys, thanks for tuning in to another episode of you Bet your Radio. Have a great week and we'll see you in the next one.
Ryan
You betcha.
Tyler
Yeah.
Miles
Yeah.
Jared
Thailand. What instrument would be the coolest to be really good at? Harmonica, saxophone or piano?
Miles
I just. Saxophone is cool, but kind of everything around saxophoning is tough. Like. Like carrying a saxophone case around.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
And like taking it out and putting the thing around your neck.
Ryan
I don't know. Yeah.
Miles
Like, harmonica and piano are definitely cooler, but there's less people who are really good at saxophone.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
You know what I mean?
Ryan
And you can rip on a saxophone too, if you're good.
Jared
Yeah.
Miles
Like, I remember in high school, there was a kid in the band who was playing saxophone and he was actually like really good. And it was cool when he was playing. But then after the fact, just standing there with your saxophone, you look kind of like a dweeb.
Jared
He never got laid.
Miles
No. Yeah. It was. You just. He's looked dweeby standing there with the saxophone, but while you're playing it. It's sick.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
Harmonica is. I feel like there's a. There's a low ceiling and a high floor with harmonica.
Jared
I completely agree with that.
Miles
If you got it if you got basic harmonica skills, it's going to be not that much different than someone who's an expert at a harmonica feel like it's like there's not a lot of nuance. But piano, if you're really good at piano. The problem with piano though is if you're really good at piano, everyone just thinks you're autistic or deaf like Beethoven or whatever.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
So like harmonica is definitely like. I'm. I'm like the cool cowboy guy who can play harmonica really well.
Jared
Well.
Miles
And you can just always have it in your pocket.
Jared
Can have a piano in your pocket.
Miles
Saxophone is definitely. You can wow the crowd the most with it because it. You get some big notes on that thing. Especially if you hold a Note for like 20 seconds. Crowd goes nuts. Piano is really cool. Lot of technical skills.
Tyler
You can.
Miles
There's a high ceiling for it. But then you just run the risk of people thinking that you're autistic. Yeah. Or blind.
Jared
Yeah. Ray Charles.
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah.
Miles
So I think at the end of the day though, I think I will choose saxophone. Just nerdy and like, I think I. I think I'd choose piano. Yeah.
Ryan
I think I would choose harmonica because
Miles
it would be sick to just like go to when the airport's got a piano. Just like walk up to it and just be able to play a diddy.
Jared
Yeah. Cuz like with harmonica and saxophone you need your own harmonica and. Or saxophone.
Miles
Piano are just laying around.
Jared
Exactly.
Ryan
Low barrier to entry though. With harmonica it's for sure. But I.
Miles
That's why there's a low ceiling though.
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah. It doesn't. It doesn't make it as like.
Miles
I mean, Tyler can play the harmonica. Just. I can't choose that. But I. I'll go piano. It would be sick.
Ryan
I think, I think I gotta go harmonica. I think piano is sweet. It. Let's like if you're a single guy. I don't know why I feel like chicks love when a guy can show them they can play the piano.
Miles
Wait, wait, what?
Ryan
Chicks love when a guy can. Will show them that they can play the piano.
Miles
I thought you said harmonica. Nope.
Ryan
I said. I'm pretty sure I said I think piano is.
Miles
Was.
Ryan
Would be great for a single guy.
Miles
I thought you said harmonica.
Ryan
I would take the harmonica.
Jared
You might have said harmonica, but you might.
Ryan
Yeah.
Miles
That's why I was laughing because I was like, I don't think chicks are like, God, that dude can play the harmonica.
Ryan
I'm sorry.
Miles
So wet.
Ryan
Right. If I did say that, I meant, I meant p.m. okay. Okay.
Miles
Yeah. I think piano is definitely the most attractive to women out of those.
Ryan
Agreed. Yeah. In terms of vibe wise, though, like around. Being around a campfire with a harmonica. And if you're good, I also feel like you can rip notes on a harmonica.
Jared
You can.
Ryan
I don't think you can take what Tyler did. I don't, I don't think we can take that too seriously because it wasn't that good.
Miles
I know, I know. But an expert isn't that much better than Tyler is. What I'm trying to say
Jared
between, like. Yeah, and if you compare that to like an average piano player and an expert, it's much different.
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, okay, here's a great example.
Miles
Example. There's no talent shows where guys are getting up there and playing the harmonica.
Jared
But if, and if they are, they're playing another instrument with them.
Miles
Well, they're playing harmonica. It's always a supplemental device.
Ryan
See? But a harmonica with a, with a, with a neck mount, that's, that's like I'm gonna, I'll push you over into a snowbank.
Miles
Oh, you're saying that's nerdy. Yeah. What if you're playing the guitar and,
Jared
and the drum with your foot?
Miles
Yeah, I, I, that's fine.
Ryan
That's fine.
Jared
That's where the neck thing comes in.
Miles
But the neck thing is only because you're doing something else. No one's just playing the harmonica with. Only they're not.
Ryan
What if you're trying to stoke the fire up or something? Or pour another drink. You might have the neck mount on.
Miles
It's crazy, Ryan. That's crazy.
Ryan
What if you need your hands like beatboxers need their hands in order to hit certain notes? Could be the same for harmony. Anyway. If I personally had to choose, I would, I would choose a harmonica, but I, I understand why other people wouldn't.
