Transcript

[Miles]

Welcome back to you bet. Your radio podcast, the coldest.

[Ryan]

Whoa.

[Miles]

The coldest podcast in all the Midwest. I am Miles, the BET you guy here with Ryan the T shirt guy. We're live. We're back.

[Jared]

You okay?

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

No, that was. That was just a frog. That wasn't a sickness. Cough.

[Tyler]

Wrong pipe.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

My kids think it's the funniest thing in the world. Like, open your mouth. You look in there and you ribbit like, oh, you got a frog in your throat. I think that shit's hilarious.

[Miles]

So it's right up there with I have your nose. It's always a classic.

[Ryan]

What is that? Ribbit? Oh, you're a frog in your throat, Miles.

[Miles]

It's funny.

[Ryan]

So put that one in your pocket.

[Tyler]

That's a good idiom. Did some like. What's the origin of somebody actually having a frog in their throat?

[Jared]

I didn't foresee that.

[Tyler]

You don't really foresee anything when it.

[Jared]

Comes to that, Jared.

[Miles]

I mean, you got to foresee all options.

[Ryan]

You really dropped the ball. Where did that one come from?

[Jared]

I'm assuming sports.

[Miles]

Probably.

[Ryan]

Probably.

[Tyler]

Or the new year.

[Ryan]

Yeah, you're right. But that's good thing. Yeah. We can hash it out on Patreon.

[Jared]

Yes.

[Miles]

You okay, Ryan?

[Tyler]

Yeah, no, I'm good.

[Miles]

We're having H vac issues once again, by the way.

[Tyler]

Damn. I was in a whole winter. Winter get up on. You were stocking captain and neck gator the entire day with a heavy duty flannel over top this crew neck. It's 50° in there.

[Ryan]

No. Hey, but cold can't keep the T shirt guy from making T shirts.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I was the best guy today. I was.

[Ryan]

I mean, hell yeah.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

If you thought tongs were one thing. I invest. We're slinging vests now.

[Miles]

You know, it's all fine and cute, Ryan, to be the T shirt guy when it's 70 degrees in the warehouse. But who's willing to bundle up and get the work done that needs to be done?

[Tyler]

Ryan, you're looking at him right here. Who's willing to take their shirt off and print shirts up in a loft 90 degree weather.

[Miles]

That's true.

[Ryan]

Both now.

[Tyler]

2001 8.

[Ryan]

20120 doesn't matter to you.

[Miles]

You. You could honestly just mark working in the warehouse as your outside workout for hard 75.

[Tyler]

That is true. Could if I would have just opened. Well then we had trucks coming in today. And then they're opening the garage doors up and I'm like, close that stuff. But I'm like, actually you could leave that open for 45 minutes. I could just check it off the workout box.

[Miles]

Yeah, just. Just do a couple laps around.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Doing some jumping jacks in the garage door.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Walking one lap around this joint's about 10 minutes. So you gotta do. I gotta do about four and a half laps to hit my time or just slow down a lot.

[Miles]

Yeah. So it's just. Just when you think you're in the clear, H vac wise, you're not. And that's a story whose oldest time, you know, it just turned up to.

[Jared]

77 degrees in here.

[Miles]

It's 77?

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

What? How?

[Jared]

It was at 71.

[Tyler]

Send some of that heat up my way.

[Miles]

Is H Vac guy here right now?

[Ryan]

Is he hearing us? Is he above us?

[Miles]

I just. Anyways, I just lose. Yeah, we gotta play that song again at the end of this episode. We're getting a lot of mileage out of it. Oh. But anyways, guys, we. We had a Dave spotting this last week.

[Ryan]

Yeah, is I. My first time seeing Dave. I was so excited.

[Miles]

It was so anti climatic too.

[Ryan]

Yeah, he clearly was.

[Miles]

It hadn't been drinking, so we were outside shooting a video outside my dad's shop. Dave rolls up, doesn't say anything to us, just walks inside for like three, four minutes, then comes out. I heard the dumpster rattle.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

And then he got in his truck, drove away, didn't even look at us.

[Tyler]

Really.

[Ryan]

He looked at us. He saw us because I was looking over there.

[Miles]

What I mean is, like when he's driving away, I tried to give him the whatever, he didn't look at me. So there's a couple things here at Play with Dave. One, someone told them that we talk about him on the podcast and now he hates my guts.

[Ryan]

Could be an option.

[Miles]

It could be option number one. Number two, he doesn't work for my.

[Ryan]

Dad anymore, but he just showed up.

[Miles]

So what is he doing at the shop? I don't know because when I asked my dad about it, he kind of did the. Here we go. So he's retired, so I don't know what he's. What he's been doing and I don't know what he did at the shop. Three, you. You heard him kind of go in the dumpster too. Did you hear that? So either he was throwing something away or probably more likely he was seeing if there's any gold in the dumpster. Sure.

[Tyler]

Gold as in like. Yeah, copper.

[Miles]

Copper or lawn chairs that someone didn't want that don't work Cadillac. That's actually how we got Ryan's chair. Dave found these somewhere, brought him to the job site. He didn't need eight of them, so he gave me some of them. And so that's actually a former Dave chair. That.

[Ryan]

Hell yeah.

[Miles]

That's part of the reason why we can't get a different chair for him. What?

[Ryan]

My favorite part of the whole thing. And it's not that I don't believe your stories, but when he pulled in, the dog was in the passenger seat. She's like, holy, it's real.

[Tyler]

That's the dog. Yeah.

[Miles]

I mean, it's. None of this is lying. And then also, I got another Dave story out of my dad. When I asked him what he was doing at the shop, you think? And he said he's probably. He probably took another car battery.

[Jared]

Another.

[Tyler]

Like.

[Miles]

So Dave would just see a car battery sitting out in the shop and he just. Well, he would. He just assumed it was shit, like, bad battery. So he went and, like, got the 10 bucks you can get for bringing back car batteries to wherever you take them. Oh, so literally one guy took the car battery out, was gonna, like, charge it or something because the truck wasn't working. And they went back to go get the car battery, it wasn't there, and started asking around. And we figured out that Dave took it and went and got 10 bucks for it. So now I'm sure my dad had to go to the shop and see if all the car batteries.

[Ryan]

Well, remember we tried to move one of the trucks and it wouldn't turn over.

[Miles]

Oh, it's probably. He probably sniped. Snipe that out of there. So there's a lot at play. I don't know what he was doing. It was. You know, you could derive a lot from a three minute session of seeing Dave.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I was so excited for him to come over and say something. So, Dave, if you are listening, I'm a little disappointed I didn't get to say hi.

[Miles]

Yeah, I don't know. Could be any. Any of the following. Could be that he's hungover from the night before. Could be that he just wasn't drinking yet. Could be that he heard about us, you know, telling his stories in the podcast. He's mad at me. It was like any of them.

[Ryan]

It was like cba. Like, we've met some really pretty famous people, like, on the podcast. And I did not get the jolt of excitement that I did when I saw Dave.

[Miles]

Oh, yeah, it was.

[Ryan]

It was like meeting not my hero. But that. It was that vibe. It was like, holy shit, I'm gonna meet him.

[Miles]

Same feeling I had when I met George Clooney and all I had on me was that tequila bottle.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I didn't even have my Civil War cannonballs on me.

[Miles]

Yeah, you could have had him sign a Civil War cannonball. That'd be sick. So, yeah, I don't know. Dave also sometimes just on a mission, you know, he probably had to go to the bank or something afterwards and was just. I had to get it done.

[Tyler]

He doesn't live in town either, does he?

[Miles]

No, he doesn't. So that's extra eerie why he was hanging around the shop.

[Ryan]

It was an intentional trip.

[Miles]

Yeah, but you know, they say the true test of a good workforce is. Or like a. Like a. A school or something. Did they come back after they leave?

[Tyler]

Yeah, you know, that's true.

[Miles]

My dad's company just has such good culture that Dave just wants to hang.

[Ryan]

Out in the middle of the day when everyone's gone.

[Jared]

It's like the college freshman coming back to school for the.

[Miles]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

Coming back to homecoming.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Miles]

Yeah. Same deal.

[Jared]

That's exactly.

[Tyler]

I mean now. So he could have been. I mean he could have been dumping something in the garbage illegally or if he was stealing carburetor. I mean those are two forms of blackmail to get him on. To get him on the show.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I guess.

[Miles]

I don't know how Dave responds to blackmail. Probably not good.

[Tyler]

Yeah, no, probably not. He'd probably be down one. He'd be probably one less Civil War cannonball in his collection.

[Jared]

This is all legends.

[Ryan]

Well, yeah, he's actually. He's stealing car batteries to save up for a Civil War cannon.

[Tyler]

That's true. Battery power.

[Ryan]

What's the future? How good is a cannonball without a cannon?

[Tyler]

Yeah, he's.

[Miles]

He's.

[Tyler]

He's just concocting the first ever battery powered cannon. You're gonna beat Elon to it. He needs 87 car batteries first though.

[Jared]

At least have charged.

[Miles]

Yeah. Honestly though, I was very surprised. Is his new truck. It's way better than the trucks he used to drive when he was. When I used to work with him.

[Ryan]

This is a good looking rig.

[Miles]

Retirement's looking good on Dave.

[Tyler]

That 401k must be popping.

[Miles]

It must have got his money out of the profit share. But anyways, so you. I'm glad you got to see that Dave exists.

[Ryan]

Me too. It was a good teaser, so. Because I'm still excited to see him again.

[Miles]

But also, what are the chances that we see Dave in that scenario? We out we go to my Dad's shop once, maybe every two, three months, if that even. Yeah, to shoot something and he doesn't go there anymore. I don't know. Fate. Fate.

[Ryan]

Good. Two for one. Buster and Dave. So Dave and Buster. Why did I never think of that? Yeah, I'm sure we've done that.

[Tyler]

Yeah, we've talked about that horse named Dust.

[Miles]

We haven't talked about it.

[Jared]

I don't think so, though.

[Miles]

We.

[Tyler]

We definitely have.

[Miles]

Yeah, Dave's. Dave named his dog Buster.

[Jared]

Gotcha.

[Miles]

So it's Dave and Buster. And he didn't know that David Busters was the real thing.

[Tyler]

Does he have a. Did he have a horse named Duster?

[Miles]

No, that's. Flops had a. Oh, okay. Duster and Buster. Flops had a. His photo on his phone was him with. It was the big horse face. He's like this holding the. Like that.

[Tyler]

Yeah, he's a flop duster.

[Miles]

Yeah. You get home from work, feed it. Feed the flop Duster. Feed him some apples, maybe ride him around a little bit.

[Ryan]

Did he ever take Duster to work when the truck was broken down?

[Miles]

No, he lives out of town. It would have taken him a while.

[Jared]

Horsepower.

[Miles]

Yeah. Yeah. He's not horsing around, though. He got bucked off once. Landed on his heels, he couldn't walk good for a week. Like, I just would pay so much money to watch flops. Right. One riding a horse especially because he's got these short ass legs. He probably looked like Lord Farquaad on the horse, you know, and they take him out, fake legs. And then for him to get bucked off and not end up on his back, but instead just land directly on his heels, sending shocks up his shins.

[Ryan]

Just his hair flowing in the wind before the inevitable heel injury.

[Miles]

Yeah. And I don't know how you know, and I can't imagine why his legs hurt considering he'd wear the. The really well, arch supported vans to work every single day. Canvas vans on the concrete job site.

[Tyler]

Comfortable style and comfort. Yeah, not so much comfort, but more so style.

[Jared]

Not so much style.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I mean, he's a BMX guy too. Bmx skateboard guys.

[Ryan]

So he's a BMX guy that own a horse that's such a wild combo.

[Tyler]

I mean, you look at UFC fighters, they own horses.

[Ryan]

Yeah, but like BMX guys and horse guys are two things that I would never think combined both riding. Yeah, you're right.

[Miles]

All right, guys, time for this week's prize picks.

[Tyler]

Playoffs.

[Miles]

Playoffs.

[Jared]

Playoffs.

[Miles]

There's only a few weeks left in the season, so let's make them count. And I think we're going to make them count this week. And guys, you can make it count this week by signing up with code watch IBR on prize picks. You get $50 instantly when you play your first five dollar bet. You don't need to win your lineup to receive the $50 bonus. It's guaranteed. So guys, get in. Get in now. Only a few weeks left.

[Ryan]

Perfect week to get in. We have a free square, an NFC championship free square.

[Miles]

And what is that free square?

[Ryan]

Tyler Jaden Daniels to throw for one singular yard.

[Miles]

No, he only has to throw a half a yard.

[Ryan]

Oh, sorry. I think he can get it done probably.

[Miles]

Yeah. So he's got to throw the more than 0.5 pass yards this week. Automatic W in your lineup. So what do we got for our lineup this week, Jared, what do you got?

[Jared]

I got Brian Robinson Jr more than nine and a half rush attempts.

[Miles]

I love rush attempts. I love pass attempts. I didn't pick that one this week.

[Jared]

But I like it.

[Miles]

But it's a, it's, it's a very satisfying one.

[Jared]

Yep.

[Miles]

You know they can hand the ball off ten times to him. You got it. Doesn't even matter if he gets zero yards rushing.

[Jared]

Exactly.

[Miles]

I like it. Tyler.

[Ryan]

Scary. Terry McLaurin. Any touchdown anytime.

[Miles]

Not passing touchdown though. Just. Just rushing.

[Ryan]

Rushing and receiving.

[Miles]

More than one touchdown. Ryan Jalen.

[Tyler]

Hurts when I pee. More than 39.5 rush yards.

[Miles]

Okay, we, we toggled it up too.

[Tyler]

Toggled?

[Miles]

Was that 24, 27 and and and.

[Tyler]

Half or something like that?

[Miles]

We're getting, we're crazy. Two weeks left.

[Ryan]

Toggle.

[Miles]

Toggled it up 39 and a half. And I got Josh allen. More than 0.5 rush or receiving touchdowns.

[Jared]

I like that one a lot.

[Miles]

He's gotten four out of the last five. He's got a touchdown. He's had two of those weeks. He had two touchdowns late into the playoffs. They're not worried about protecting him anymore. They're going to let the dog eat open the playbook.

[Ryan]

Maybe a stupid question, but does a punt return or a kick return for a touchdown count as a rushing touchdown in the stat book?

[Jared]

No, I think it's touchdown.

[Miles]

It is a punt return touchdown.

[Ryan]

Okay. I didn't know.

[Miles]

Imagine if you, if you put that in your lineup, a kick return touchdown.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I was gonna say what are the odds on that guy? He's like most of the time they're not even running it out.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. Can you imagine a six leg lineup with all with kickoff Returns, touchdowns. It's like a 1 million x multiplier.

[Miles]

I don't know if it exists.

[Tyler]

No, I don't think it does. But hypothetically, I do it.

[Miles]

So, guys, Jaden Daniels needs a passing touchdown. Josh Allen needs a rushing touchdown. Terry McLaurin needs a receiving or rushing touchdown. 39 1/2 rush yards for Jalen hurts more than that and more than nine and a half rush temps. By Brian brj? B Rob so, guys, remember, go to prize picks, use code ybr. It's a great time.

[Tyler]

Great time.

[Jared]

So fun.

[Miles]

And speaking of the job site, I was thinking, what are some things that only on the job, only guys on the job site would understand? You know, it's like I, you know, you only, you only understand Dave and Flops. If you've, if you've worked with a guy like that, you know, the, the, the normal brain can't comprehend those two guys unless you've. You've been on there. So what are some things that only guys on the job site would understand?

[Ryan]

I think that one thing that only makes sense in the job site or you understand if you're on the job site, is that clouds are your best friend. Because they can mean one of two things and they're both great. One, it could rain and you could go home early. Two, you're getting shade out of it, regardless.

[Miles]

That is true.

[Ryan]

Big, big fan of clouds on the job site.

[Miles]

Especially when you either work in a hole like I used to, or a roof. You used to, Tyler?

[Ryan]

Yes.

[Miles]

There is no shade anywhere.

[Tyler]

Whenever I went, like, right when you'd get in the hole, would it ever be, like, cool because you're like, you know, below ground?

[Miles]

I mean, maybe early in the morning.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

But that was the thing is, once you got the forms up, you would always. You'd got to get to the walls with shade before the other guys took them.

[Ryan]

Yeah, new guys, New guys get the bad walls.

[Miles]

They don't even know it. You know, like if. Because we used to have to break ties. You know, the ties that stick out of the wall, you got to break them off so they can tar. It's a whole thing. You guys wouldn't get it. You always gotta go to the walls with the shade and make everyone else work in the sun.

[Ryan]

We would. So we'd have these metal washers that we would put in to secure like the, the foam that you'd get used to, get the pitch of the roof. And if you left those in the sun, it's 20 degrees warmer up on some of these roofs. Yeah, they'd be too hot for you to push in because you would push these washers in with your hand. And so we'd put them in the shade or like have it follow a cloud or follow a building. So they were in the shade constantly so we weren't burning our hands trying to push these washers in.

[Tyler]

Should have brought a little umbrella that you can prop up to work.

[Ryan]

I should have wore one of those umbrella hats too.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Like Bill Murray and Space Jam.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Miles]

Remember that?

[Ryan]

Yeah, exactly.

[Miles]

People forget that. I think that only people on the job site will understand that a good freakout once in a while is good for your health.

[Ryan]

It is.

[Tyler]

Get it all out and, and that like, that could just be like in the office environment too. Hopefully you got, you got co workers and bosses who understand. But yeah, for sure.

[Miles]

We had a rule when I used to work concrete that everyone was allowed at least one good spaz a week.

[Ryan]

A week? Hell yeah.

[Miles]

Maybe it was a month. I don't know.

[Jared]

I did it once a week.

[Miles]

Yeah. So everyone, if you've been on the job site, you're working with something, it's not doing what you want it to do. And you can either bury that deep inside and it comes out later when you don't want it to or just let it out right there. I mean, a good hammer throw against the wall across the way. I watched a guy take a 5, 1/3 empty metal drum or. Yeah. Have a third of the stuff left, pick that up and launch it across the way. And at that point you don't stop them from doing that. It's kind of one of those things. You just gotta ride it out, let them get it out. Because when you're in that scenario, you don't want people stopping you from it. You gotta get it all out so that. All right, I could refocus back.

[Ryan]

So there was weird. We were putting rubber on a wall one time and we kept up the seam. Me and this other guy and our foreman spazzed on us and grabbed the rubber and started pulling the rubber off so we'd have to redo it. But then it was already glued to the pieces that were on. Right. So he just in his spaz just started ripping off all the properly done rubber as well. And we were all just sitting back like we're about to redo this whole wall.

[Miles]

But that's better than trying to stop him from doing what he's doing.

[Ryan]

Yep, it was, it was a fun.

[Miles]

Because it's a testosterone filled environment and if you bottle up that Testosterone. And don't let it out. It's going to be bad for everyone involved.

[Jared]

Could get out of car wreck, though, on the way home. So it's good to let it out.

[Miles]

Yeah. You don't want them to wrap their car around a light pole.

[Ryan]

Never drive angry.

[Tyler]

So what, what, what would happen if you spaz more than once a week or once a month?

[Jared]

Whatever.

[Miles]

Well, then it's like, all right, okay. Come on, dude. Not that bad.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah, we. I mean, that's even part of the culture here. Sometimes you just got to spaz on it. We've been, we've been spazzing for years and, and a lot of the times if you can't figure something out or can't get something jammed or whatever, you just spaz on a little bit. It works damn near every time.

[Ryan]

That's the thing I'm most jealous of, for your position to mine. If I. I can't spaz on my computer.

[Tyler]

No. I can spaz on that air saver machine, though.

[Ryan]

You can, you can. I have nothing to spaz on. I can't. I can't throw my computer at the wall. Miles will fire me.

[Miles]

That is true. That is what I miss about working construction is just when you need a good spaz. There's lots of things to take it out on.

[Ryan]

No.

[Miles]

Yeah. And most of them are unbreakable. You know, you got metal rods, hammers.

[Ryan]

It's not the new guy.

[Miles]

Yeah, the new guy's neck.

[Tyler]

You know, I was treating that, that printer down there this morning like I like you would the old, like tube TVs. Like, you give it a couple smacks on the side and a good hard enough smack will get that sucker up and running right away.

[Jared]

After the software update, after the soft update.

[Tyler]

What makes the software update go quicker is what, what it really does.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Miles]

And to my point that I think it's good for your health. I think if you bottle up all that cortisol that you got and don't have a release, it's just gonna eventually like give you cancer or something.

[Tyler]

Yeah. You can't have that cortisone.

[Miles]

So actually if you freak out and let it all, let your body dissolve the cortisol through a good spaz, you're basically. You're beating cancer.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I think it releases lactic acid too, which isn't good.

[Miles]

Yeah, stuff like that.

[Jared]

Yeah, it's science.

[Miles]

It's science. You guys wouldn't get it.

[Tyler]

I think it increases red blood. Red blood cell count.

[Jared]

And white.

[Tyler]

And white.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

I mean, that's what I've been hearing.

[Miles]

And to piggyback off of that, the point I just made. Only people on the job side understand a. The value of a tool that works every time you use it.

[Ryan]

The good drill.

[Miles]

The good drill. The good saw.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Miles]

The one that every time you fire it up, it works.

[Ryan]

It doesn't even need to be, like a power tool. It could be anything. We had the good cart, like, to haul insulation around. Like, the good cart didn't have a rolly, shitty wheel.

[Miles]

Because it's all of these little moments of the tool just doing its job of starting up and working that keeps you from spazzing and freaking out and raising your cortisol levels. Well, that's what it's all about. That's why they're all intermingled.

[Tyler]

You know, that was going to be my first point. Something only people on jobs I understand is, like, how to start specific vehicles or specific equipment. Like that truck that you guys were. Were trying to start the shop there. You probably just weren't doing it right.

[Miles]

Probably.

[Ryan]

You're probably right.

[Miles]

I mean, well, that same truck I remember, you used to have to turn the steering wheel a certain way in order to even get the key to turn at all. So, yeah, you got to know.

[Tyler]

Boom.

[Miles]

You know, it's like. It's like your spouse. You got to know all the right buttons to press, good or bad.

[Ryan]

Another thing that only makes sense on the job site is every other crew's got it easier than you.

[Miles]

Yes.

[Ryan]

Even if they don't, you say they just.

[Miles]

Every person. Not even.

[Ryan]

Yeah, just like you're roofing, and you look down and you see some general contractor, whoever the electrician, shows up like, look at those guys. Easy for them. We're up here slaving our asses off, and they're down there in the shade all cozy and comfy.

[Miles]

One of your crew members has gone for a funeral. Easy day for him. You know, you're working next to a hospital, you look up at all the people inside, and you're like, geez, must be nice being in the ac, sitting.

[Ryan]

In a bed all day.

[Miles]

Yeah. God, I wish I could sit in a bed, have someone feed me, and watch Wheel of Fortune all day.

[Jared]

It's like a children's hospital.

[Miles]

That one's too far, Jared. All right. Regular hospitals, not children, hospitals.

[Tyler]

You're like the orthopedic hospital or something.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Miles]

I mean, we used to, when we would be driving to job site to job site, we'd see someone, like, out for a run and we would just like, be like, this guy's got to get a job.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Don't people work at noon on Tuesdays or. Let's go. Why is there so many people driving on the road right now?

[Miles]

That was always like the most frustrating thing. You, like you went to a gas station on your way to a certain. If you're in between jobs and stacked up like cordwood in there and you're like, doesn't any of these people have to work?

[Tyler]

That's the best.

[Ryan]

You're there too.

[Tyler]

Well, because it's an inconvenience to us having to drive on a busy road in the middle of the day, you know, get to work.

[Miles]

That is true. Even in your own crew, everyone's got it easier than you do. It's like, if you. If you don't. If you just don't understand, if you don't, you have it the worst out of anyone. If you work construction, even the guy next to you, like, you can make.

[Ryan]

You could genuinely make an argument for every case that you have the worst job in the crew. Like, the foreman could say he has the worst job in the crew because he's got to deal with all of our. All the time. The new guy can say it because he's the new guy and he's getting.

[Miles]

Bullied shoveling all day and they're like, gotta be nice to do some mindless work. Like shovel. Like the new guy. He's got it so easy. I have to sit here and think about stuff. Just go on and on and on.

[Ryan]

Everybody's got it worse than their neighbor.

[Jared]

Yeah, I got one. It's. You don't really know what the time is on the construction site because not where to watch all the time. So you only know time through, like the. The noon siren or like, what radio show comes on next.

[Miles]

That is very true.

[Tyler]

Yeah. What day is. It's the first Wednesday of the month. Thank God that siren went off.

[Miles]

Or when the boss shows up, you know, you're like, oh, boss is here. Must be 10:30 already.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Between 10:30, 11, or you got the heavy metal power hour comes on at noon. You're like, all right, lunchtime.

[Miles]

Oh, the radio station is doing good. Kid of the week must be 9:00.

[Ryan]

I don't know. You'd always just try. We'd try to figure it out from the sun. We like, like bet on it. Like, what time do you think it is? And we'd all look at the sun like 9:45. And then you check the. We had a clock on the radio. You check the clock on the radio.

[Miles]

Once you get really good though, you just know what time it is based off of the work you've done so far, you know, and it's. It takes a real art because it's a sliding scale on a normal day when you got good sleep and all of that. This job takes me an hour and a half. If I went drinking the night before and I'm hurting, that takes me two and a half hours. And you just gotta constantly monitoring that turtle clock. If it's cold out and you're wearing these big Kinko gloves, everything takes about a half hour longer than it normally should.

[Jared]

Yep.

[Miles]

That is the worst part about it being cold. Doing construction is all your tasks just take so much longer because of gloves. And I don't know.

[Tyler]

Well, if you can't get to start up in the summertime, how to start up in winter time. That's true.

[Miles]

Oh, that's a good point. Jared.

[Tyler]

Did you guys always listen to the same radio stations every day?

[Ryan]

Pretty much. Like if you changed it, like the old heads would get pissed.

[Tyler]

So.

[Miles]

Yeah, but we, we got to the point where there was more younger guys than there were old heads and so we kind of overpowered them. We're able to choose our station more often. But yeah, the way the worst is when it's 95 degrees out 100 humidity, you're dying, and they got death metal on.

[Ryan]

That's what we had to listen to death metal all the time because. So our foreman didn't give a. What music was being played. But there was this really old guy, John. John, I've talked about him, that was in charge of the radio and if you changed it, he would have a full on mental breakdown.

[Miles]

There's always one guy on the job site that has a mental breakdown over the radio.

[Ryan]

It's. It's like you. You slapped his wife if you touch the radio.

[Miles]

Exactly. We had to like get them on board with it by like making themes. We're like, oh, we're doing Country Thursday, you know, whatever.

[Ryan]

Treat it like elementary school.

[Miles]

Because they think if you change the station that that music is now played on the job site for forever. So they're like, they're like, I'm never gonna listen to death metal ever again. When you. But if you brand it like Country Thursdays, then they're like, okay, Friday, the world will be back to normal. I can, I can withstand it. I can see the end.

[Ryan]

Ye.

[Tyler]

I can see the slip knot in the. In the.

[Miles]

And then you're like, oh, every third week of the month, we do just country week. And then you just slowly take over to where he doesn't even notice if.

[Ryan]

We would change it to country. John. John. Like, what the is this?

[Miles]

100%.

[Jared]

I had a form of that. He always played AM radio and nothing else.

[Miles]

Oh, my God. That was pretty terrible.

[Ryan]

You just listen to really talk news.

[Jared]

Yep. Talk news.

[Miles]

What job was this?

[Jared]

Landscaping.

[Miles]

You were a landscaper. Did we know that?

[Jared]

I'm pretty sure, yeah.

[Miles]

What would you do? Would you move rock around? What was move rock?

[Jared]

Retaining walls, lay sod Plants.

[Miles]

Plants.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Kind of agree edging.

[Jared]

Yep.

[Miles]

A lot of edging that job.

[Ryan]

A lot of edging to npr.

[Tyler]

Yeah, opposite of that.

[Miles]

Oh, God. Yeah. I mean, you know, but death metal's fine.

[Ryan]

You know, you really get numb to it.

[Miles]

There's some. Yeah. When you. When you listen to it all the time, it loses its effect.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Like, there's some of. There's some jobs on the site that are like, you want death metal on, you know, but to listen to it for eight hours, you're just like, okay, this just feels like some sort of torture.

[Ryan]

It really.

[Miles]

I like it in small spurts.

[Jared]

Right.

[Tyler]

Well, I mean, as you guys have kind of described it, it seems like the job is torturous. So it's like the music matches the job.

[Ryan]

Yeah. You know, but it would be nice to cut the edge with maybe some. Something A little more calming.

[Miles]

Yeah. You know, or just happier.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Something about people. Some Pharrell, killing each other in music.

[Miles]

Yeah. Maybe Drunk on a plane by Dirks Bentley.

[Ryan]

That would feel good on a Friday.

[Miles]

You could. You could. You could transport into a different world if you want. I say is. That song was really popular when I was working. Like, do you guys have those. You remember, like, songs when used to work construction, like that just were played on the radio all the time.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I remember the. It was this. The first summer I ever roofed that stupid kind of poppy song about she's wearing your T shirt and your boxers. I can't remember what. You would know it if I played it.

[Tyler]

But I. I kind of know what you're talking about, but I don't know what to say.

[Miles]

I just remember with drunk on a plane, there was one guy, he didn't know any of the words, but he liked the song Pilot. You just. New pilot.

[Jared]

That sounds like you, Miles.

[Miles]

That guy may have been me or may not have been me. Oh, yeah. I got a couple other ones I thought of, like, only people on the job site understand the Pain of forgetting something essential at the shop because on face value, like, cool, I get to go for more driving time. But now it's like, the job's gonna take longer. You still gotta get it done. You may have to work later. The boss is probably upset that you didn't grab it in the first place, and it's just a whole thing.

[Ryan]

But on the flip side, I would also add no one on the jobs, no one that hasn't worked on the job site would understand the pain of not being able to go with. On to go get that tool.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

So you just got to sit at the job site and wait for the tool to get back. So you're going to end up shoveling.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

It's like sweeping.

[Miles]

Yeah. You're now taking someone away from their job and I'll piss at you. Another thing that only people on the job site. And this may be just a very specific thing to me, but only people on the job site will understand. When you get the shakes and you have to eat something immediately, like, okay, go on. Like, you just didn't eat enough breakfast or you got drunk the night before, or it's. Maybe you haven't drank enough water. It's really hot out, and you're like, just kind of. We just called it getting the shakes. You're like, if I don't get something in my stomach right now, my body's gonna shut down. I don't know if you guys ever had that. Yeah.

[Tyler]

That was like me an hour ago.

[Miles]

Get the shakes.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Yeah. Didn't eat lunch till three. I started. I. I was like, I gotta go eat something. I was gonna pass out.

[Ryan]

Are you intermittent.

[Miles]

You feel like John.

[Tyler]

3:00Pm feel like.

[Miles]

You feel like John Daly on the golf course.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Out there where they PGA Tour, they banned alcohol.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Having my chocolate milk this morning in the shakes.

[Jared]

You might just been cold. Shiver.

[Miles]

Well, then that's the other thing.

[Tyler]

Sorry. I could have been.

[Miles]

Yeah. Only people at jobs. I understand there's a fine line between the shakes and getting the Bee Gees. Right. Like we always say, like, drink chocolate milk for morning break and you're just going to have the Bee Gees the rest of the day.

[Ryan]

Got the it's like chocolate milk piles. Or was it pizza piles was your thing?

[Miles]

Pizza piles.

[Tyler]

So did you guys have a Porta Potty at every job site?

[Miles]

Well, that was the thing. So working residential, there isn't always. At least from what I got, there wasn't always a Porta Potty right on site. So as you're Driving into the neighborhood to your site, you had to be scoping out all the porta Potties, just in case, you know, you had too much chocolate milk. You need to know exactly where to go, because that could happen in an instant. Yeah. That's how you get Dave splattering the bank.

[Ryan]

Only people on the job site appreciate the big porta potties.

[Tyler]

Handicapped Porta Pot only.

[Miles]

They will appreciate a good porta Potty General. A clean one.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Oh, my God.

[Tyler]

Splatter in the bank.

[Miles]

Do you guys. You never got the shakes?

[Ryan]

No.

[Miles]

All right, that just might have been me and my own issues then. Too much drinking the night before. Not enough water, not enough food. That'll do it to a guy.

[Jared]

Learned your lesson?

[Miles]

Oh, I got the shakes today, almost.

[Ryan]

Really? Yeah.

[Tyler]

Well, yeah.

[Miles]

Anything this morning? And all of a sudden, I'm sitting there, I'm like, if I don't eat something right now, I'm gonna puke. I actually had to go to the bathroom because I thought I was gonna puke. People think this content game's a piece of cake. It ain't just out here grinding, writing scripts, coming up with podcast segments. Forget to eat. It's like that one motivational video where he says that Beyonce was on set for three days. She forgot to eat because she was so working so hard.

[Tyler]

Eric Thomas.

[Miles]

Yeah. Who it was. I remember that. I just remember it was a motivational video of him saying the speech and this guy just working out. He's like a running back in college or something, trained for the NFL draft. And it was just him, like, doing bicep curls.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

And catching footballs.

[Tyler]

Well, it's like, if you want to. If you're trying to make gains, you gotta eat. You can't just skip.

[Miles]

Yeah. It's such bad advice. Don't eat. Because basically his whole motto is, don't eat or don't sleep.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

So that.

[Tyler]

Both of them.

[Miles]

That seems like that should breed a lot of success.

[Ryan]

Sleep when you're dead, but that you can't eat.

[Tyler]

Yeah, you just trade. You trade, you know, success for malnourishment. Pretty much what it is.

[Miles]

So. Anyone got anything else?

[Ryan]

No, I'm out.

[Miles]

You're out?

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Tyler]

I'm out, too. Yeah, I didn't. I didn't really. The only time I worked on job sites when I was really young, like 10, 11 years old. I don't really remember much.

[Ryan]

So when you were running the nursery, that.

[Tyler]

And then I. I would work on some job sites with my dad landscaping, but I was too young to pick up on anything.

[Jared]

Yeah, me and you are landscape bros. Yeah, we are.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Actually, one of my dad's employees, one day he came to. Came to work with his face was all up. I'm like, Jesus Christ. What happened to that guy? Like, is that. Is he a bad guy? Like, is he in some trouble right now? He got in a fight at the bar the night before.

[Miles]

Well, that'll happen, so that will happen. So, yeah, you guys are landscape bros. You're a roofer guy.

[Ryan]

Oh, yeah.

[Miles]

Compared to what I do. You guys had it so easy. I mean, I just.

[Ryan]

Sitting here, you guys, I would have loved to been on ground level. Just cake with 20 degrees cooler.

[Jared]

Oh, here we go.

[Miles]

At least you had a breeze up there.

[Ryan]

Do you think we got a breeze up there?

[Miles]

And you said caked with what?

[Ryan]

I said you guys had a cake.

[Miles]

Oh, yeah. Had a cake. We'll try being caked with form oil.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

And the sun beating down to you. It acts like suntan oil. And you go home and you gotta sunburn.

[Ryan]

We. We're caged with plexiglass slivers up and down our body.

[Miles]

I would love a plexiglass sliver compared to some of the I had to deal with literal. They've splattered the bank.

[Tyler]

I mean, Jerry, we. We, like, we're planting trees, and so we just plant shade wherever we want.

[Miles]

Like, God, it's hot out. I better go do. If I do a little work, I can take a break.

[Ryan]

Grab me another tree quick.

[Jared]

Exactly.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I'll play this black walnut right here.

[Miles]

You're like, I'll carry all the trees. So you just have constant shade or.

[Jared]

Just take a sod over you like a blanket.

[Ryan]

Yeah, y. Dude, that for the fiberglass slivers did suck ass.

[Miles]

Yeah, but it's just nothing compared to.

[Jared]

What I deal with.

[Miles]

Concrete. Chemical burns on your hands, Tyler.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I got hot tar burns on my whole body.

[Miles]

So did I.

[Ryan]

You didn't have hot tar.

[Miles]

Yeah, we did.

[Ryan]

Well, you poured your concrete, guy.

[Miles]

You gotta tar the outside of the wall so it's. It's watertight. T. I t. So just. I just couldn't imagine working such a cupcake job like you guys used to.

[Jared]

We could have people comment and say which job was the toughest, roofing or concrete.

[Ryan]

Make sure they know it's flat roofing, not that shingle stuff. Shingle guys are a bunch.

[Miles]

I mean, they got it easy.

[Ryan]

Easy to easy. Oh, I gotta tear the shingles off first. It's not hard.

[Miles]

True.

[Tyler]

No, no. It's actually Kind of. I would think it's kind of fun. Maybe.

[Ryan]

Shingling might be the easiest form of trades.

[Jared]

Get extinguishable.

[Tyler]

Yeah, like.

[Miles]

I know.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

You ever had to shovel out an entire bank that caved in because it rained the night before? I don't think so. There's no shoveling on the roof. Tell you that much. Plus, you guys have equipment to boom your up on the roof on your shingles. And I don't know, do you guys do that or you guys.

[Ryan]

We didn't do shingles.

[Miles]

You don't even have to do shingles. What are you even doing?

[Ryan]

You did flat roofs, rubber hot par, sometimes rock if you're broke.

[Miles]

Oh, you're like on Shawshank Redemption. Aren't they doing that?

[Ryan]

Yeah, actually, yeah.

[Jared]

Yeah. I do my taxes, Tyler.

[Ryan]

I could. No.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

It's the really old version of it, but yeah.

[Miles]

Yeah. So you got the new version. It's got to be easier.

[Ryan]

They had a way tougher, harder. There's just slower.

[Miles]

All right, should we take a break?

[Jared]

Let's do it.

[Tyler]

Sure.

[Miles]

Ryan, I got my new boys or buzzing patch hat on today. What do you think of it?

[Tyler]

Pocket looks good.

[Miles]

This is one of my favorite colorways we got.

[Tyler]

It's phenomenal.

[Miles]

Gray front, white back, beautiful patch up front. It just gives you that. It just gives you that Friday, let's have a few beers after work feeling.

[Ryan]

But it's also classy, too.

[Miles]

But it's also. Yeah, you could wear it to church.

[Ryan]

You could.

[Tyler]

Makes you want to go.

[Miles]

And if you think Jesus wasn't buzzing. Loved wine. He turned water into wine.

[Ryan]

That skit, it was like Jesus and the boys at Applebee's. And the waitress is like, what will you guys have to drink? And they all started giggling. He's like, we'll just have water.

[Miles]

Yeah, it's a great one. So you got to go to. Oh, you betcha. Dot com. Check out all of our new patch hats on there. We hopefully got more patch hats coming down the pipeline. And Ryan, we've been. We. We've been slinging some vests.

[Tyler]

I mean, what else is there to say?

[Miles]

We're all a lot of. We're all a lot of small and medium sizes, Smalls and mediums, Ryan. So we got largest xls 2x. We have any 3x.

[Tyler]

We got 3x.

[Miles]

So it's.

[Ryan]

They're a quality investment.

[Miles]

Nice investment.

[Tyler]

Boom. Nice one.

[Ryan]

Classic.

[Miles]

So, guys, those. Those vests are only 39.99. These hats are 19.99. Go to ou. Bet you dot com. Check them out and treat yourself. You know, the vests are great to go ice fishing.

[Jared]

They are.

[Miles]

Which brings us to our next segment. Jared, why does that happen? I would like someone to do it. Study at why that happens to people.

[Tyler]

My.

[Miles]

Why can't. I'm looking right in him. Why can't I say his name?

[Jared]

There's one time he called me and.

[Miles]

Well, like, you guys don't do that to me. No, my uncle, but my mom used to do it to us kids growing up.

[Tyler]

Yeah, my uncle does it all day. It's either me, my brother, or his son, my cousin. And it's like it's never the correct. It's not.

[Miles]

I don't get it.

[Tyler]

Yeah, grandpa.

[Miles]

But why do I. Is it hereditary?

[Ryan]

I don't know.

[Miles]

Turning into my mother. That's never good. Sorry, Mom. Taking off the chin again. So, Jared, you got it.

[Jared]

Very correct.

[Miles]

Jared, what's the next segment?

[Jared]

Ice fishing etiquette.

[Miles]

Okay. Ice fishing season. You got your. You bet your canvas vest on. You're headed out there. Tyler, what's something you got to be keeping in mind when you're ice fishing?

[Ryan]

I think one of the most important rules while setting up for your ice fishing etiquette is if you're not the guy drilling holes, you are the guy cleaning them out.

[Tyler]

Or you're at least the guy doing something, not just watching.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I mean, I think the best option is just you follow the guy drilling and you're scooping. Getting that out of. Get the ice out of the hole. Clean them up nice and tidy.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I mean, that. That's. That's a staple.

[Miles]

Begs the question, Tyler, are you the guy sticking your thing in a hole, or are you the guy cleaning up afterwards, drilling holes?

[Tyler]

Are you cleaning them out?

[Ryan]

I do not own an Auger, so I am the. I am the janitor. I'm cleaning the holes up. That's tough.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

There's something about being the guy with the auger. It just kind of gives you, like, a different sense of power.

[Ryan]

It is.

[Jared]

It's.

[Ryan]

It's a status thing, for sure.

[Tyler]

Yeah. And then you come out, you know, you got propane now, or you come out smelling like prop and kind of. I don't know. It's kind of badass in a sense.

[Miles]

No. One of my favorite things to do with Augur is to drill a hole halfway and let leave it sit there.

[Ryan]

That's it? Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I mean, it's great. And it's just like a kickstand on a bike.

[Ryan]

We'll do that to mark our the end of our tip up line. You leave the auger in at the farthest tip up so you know where to look.

[Tyler]

Yep. It's a good idea.

[Miles]

Depth perception. I think that Ice Fishing 101. You're not really going out there to ice fish. You're mostly there to do other stuff.

[Ryan]

Like play cards, watch.

[Miles]

If you got an ice house. You're watching movies, you are eating foods, you are arguing with your buddy about something that doesn't matter. You're doing everything but fishing.

[Ryan]

Drinking 1,000 beers.

[Miles]

Oh yeah. Drinking beers. Yeah.

[Tyler]

You better just hope that you get lucky in picking a good spot right off the bat. Because odds are you ain't moving that fish house.

[Miles]

No.

[Ryan]

Hell no. Unless it's a portable. Once she's down, she's down.

[Tyler]

Hey, catching fish just a bonus on top of everything else.

[Ryan]

Some, there's some days where I kind of wish the fish were biting less.

[Miles]

This is a lot of work.

[Ryan]

Finish this hand.

[Tyler]

But here to relax. Not hammer the fish through the ice.

[Ryan]

No. I went spearing this weekend. First time I've got a spear in a couple years. I was. It was a blast. Spear hammered him for the first three minutes.

[Tyler]

He speared him.

[Ryan]

We.

[Miles]

Yeah. I mean that, that would be insane. If you're hammering that.

[Ryan]

That'd be impressive if you were able to hammer a fish through a hole. But we did great the first three minutes and then it completely shut off. But didn't matter because we had other to do.

[Miles]

Yeah, I mean I guess cold plunge could. How many you get in the first three minutes?

[Ryan]

Three.

[Miles]

Three.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Which is like, like when you're spirit too. You don't spear everything because you're not going to clean a little dinker that comes in walleyes. No big. No, no.

[Tyler]

That was a test. I was testing. You didn't know that?

[Miles]

I didn't know.

[Ryan]

Pretty much just northern.

[Tyler]

Northern's carp. Some people spear car.

[Jared]

Why can't you spear a walleye?

[Ryan]

It's not a rough fish. I mean northerns are. I think northerns are the only non rough fish you can spear.

[Tyler]

Oh so like over abundance of them too.

[Ryan]

And some likes they're like you could spear suckers and all sorts of rough like nuisance fish.

[Jared]

Oh, I know that.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Fun fact.

[Ryan]

It's like there's no chance of catch and release if you spear a fish. It's dead correct. Yeah.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Miles]

I mean maybe for you less experience Spearman, but me I can, I can spread.

[Ryan]

You can, you can get them perfectly between the Tines.

[Miles]

Yeah. And I'll just. I'll tend them back to life and.

[Ryan]

Okay.

[Miles]

Release them back in cpr.

[Ryan]

So, see, I like to just kill them immediately.

[Tyler]

Well, that's where the hammering comes in. And you. You pop them with a hammer.

[Ryan]

That is the dice thing about spearing, too. They're just. They're gonna die. You don't. You don't have to deal with them flopping around in your bucket the whole time, Rip. Just throw them on the ice. They're dead.

[Tyler]

Yeah, you're dead.

[Miles]

I think another Ice Fishing 101 etiquette thing you need to do is bring more snacks than you'll ever need.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Like, I remember, look, going through. We went through the ice house that we got this fall, and there was beef jerky in a thing which. That I was like, jeez, that was an expensive thing to just leave in here. Beef jerky, snacks, chips, this, this, that. And the other thing is, like, I was looking back, now you're like, when was I gonna eat all of these snacks? Because I think the last time I went out, I went by myself and bought all these snacks. Yeah, but if you end up in a sticky situation, you rather have more food than less food.

[Ryan]

True, true.

[Tyler]

The beef jerk is vacuum sealed too, so I was still good. I actually munched on that.

[Miles]

Did you?

[Tyler]

In the. In the weeks after we found it. Yeah. Yeah. On my list for ice fish and etiquette, is it kind of tails on yours. But I said don't ex. Don't expect your buddy to bring snacks and drinks for you. And what I mean by that is, like, if you just show up just thinking your buddy's got enough for you, he may not. Especially in a portable, you ain't got that much room.

[Ryan]

So.

[Tyler]

Yeah. You always gotta pack at least a little something for yourself.

[Miles]

Well, it's like. It's like the boat, right?

[Tyler]

Exactly.

[Miles]

Show up with no beer. Like I did that one time that I'll never. For good reason. You show up without beer, and then you want other people's beer. It leaves a bad taste smell. You show up with beer and you run out because you ate. Drank it all. They're much more willing to give you beer in return. If you show up without snacks, the other person's gonna bring snacks for both of you. But if you don't show up with anything, it's bad taste in their mouth.

[Ryan]

It's. Yeah, it's not a good look either. She's like, okay, you just expected to mooch on my stuff.

[Tyler]

Yeah, Right, right. I Got this Cheesy Chex mix, and then you've already eaten half the bag.

[Ryan]

And you got your middle fingers in my bag of Cheesy Deluxe going on here.

[Jared]

Fisher Rod, too.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's my next one. If you borrow a buddy's jig, make sure you give it back. Jigs hold, like, sentiment, weird sentimental value for some people. And if your buddy walks away with your jig, I mean, that. That's detrimental. That could cause some issues down the road because, you know, it's just like a tool. You're getting that thing back, you know.

[Miles]

Does that happen next summer?

[Tyler]

Oh, yeah, plenty of times. Especially fishing up do about that. You just. You just. You let it slide. You hopefully. Hopefully he's using the same jig the next time you go out so that you can. You can call him on a.

[Ryan]

Right away. Or you just start stealing his jigs.

[Tyler]

Yeah, you could start stealing. Sealing their jigs.

[Miles]

Doesn't have the jigs that Ryan wants.

[Ryan]

That's like ones when we go up.

[Tyler]

Fishing and on Lake Winnipeg, the, like, the. The jigs and the wraps that you buy to fish those.

[Miles]

Those.

[Tyler]

The big walleyes up there are like. Some of them are like 10, 15 bucks a piece.

[Ryan]

Jesus.

[Tyler]

So then we're staying in my tackle box.

[Ryan]

So here's what you do. If you got a buddy that's notorious for stealing your jigs, you start the fishing trip off with, like, your shitty ones you don't really want. And so he starts to steal those, you're like, ah, dang it. And then you pull out your good ones.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. Hey, I'll give you a drink.

[Miles]

What'd you catch that on? And you're like, oh, this jig over here. And then you're like, oh, so I'll. I'll clip it and give it to you so you can use it. Then you just pretend to clip it off and give them one that you don't like.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. Great way to offload an old tackle.

[Ryan]

That's one of the things on my list is good ice fishing. Etiquette is lie about everything. What jiggy using. Where'd you catch those fish at? How many fish did you catch? You guys didn't even realize. I already lied to you guys. We only got two spearing.

[Miles]

Yep.

[Tyler]

Jesus.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's the rules. That's the etiquette. It.

[Miles]

If you're. If you.

[Tyler]

I know you can't trust him.

[Miles]

Just can't trust him.

[Ryan]

Only ice fishing stuff.

[Miles]

But yeah, actually, I don't think I would trust you. If you told us the truth now. I'm thinking about it.

[Tyler]

That's true.

[Ryan]

That's how many fish there. Spirit of the world will never know.

[Miles]

Yeah. Every once in a while, just pretend like you're trying to set the hook on one just to get the other guy excited that there's a fish going around, even if he's getting no marks.

[Tyler]

Marking, markin.

[Ryan]

Ah, God.

[Miles]

Must have been. Must have been something else.

[Tyler]

I must have got hung up on.

[Ryan]

The weeds or like you set the hook on nothing or you just. You're. You're feeling phantom bites like. No, that was for sure a bite.

[Tyler]

God, I had him. Had him.

[Miles]

I think another thing is if you're going ice fishing, you need to be prepared that something goes wrong every time you go out. If you go into ice fish and think it's. Everything's gonna be hunky dory, you are in for a rude awakening.

[Ryan]

You're. Your heater's not gonna work or you're gonna forget your chisel. So then you gotta somehow bust your hole open with. With whatever you've got on hand.

[Miles]

Yeah. Yeah. Truck gets stuck. If you got an ice house, the crank doesn't work.

[Tyler]

It won't lower, pin won't line up. Everybody's got low loafers on.

[Miles]

Yeah. You're jumping on the back of the ice house to get it to go down.

[Tyler]

Vexilar's not working because he didn't mark anything for eight hours.

[Miles]

Yep. You forgot to charge the battery on your battery powered auger. So now you just have to like, try and I don't know how you're gonna get a hole open.

[Tyler]

Old gas in the generator.

[Miles]

Yeah, it's. There's something's gonna be wrong. And if you know that going into it, you turn those moments into a good camaraderie event.

[Ryan]

Murphy's Law.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

And basically then it's like you now with your band of brothers out there ice fishing. You got to solve the problem. It's kind of like what makes a good movie, you know? And then all of a sudden, the guy next to you sees you struggling with something. He comes over, offers advice that's totally unsolicited. You know, you're. You're trying to get different gas in the generator, and he comes over and goes, ah, it looks like the gas might be all.

[Tyler]

I'd say, I'd say potentially one of the worst pieces of equipment that can go down on you ice fishing is your auger. Because you can't fish without an auger.

[Ryan]

You. You could you could. That's why I got through.

[Tyler]

What if you don't have a chisel?

[Ryan]

Well, you gotta have one.

[Miles]

That's why I got one of those hand crank ones.

[Tyler]

I mean, that's a.

[Miles]

That's a shirt.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Because knowing me, I'm not gonna remember to charge those batteries, I can tell you that much.

[Tyler]

Some.

[Ryan]

Those handcrake ones are pretty sweet when they're sharp. Yeah.

[Miles]

Oh, yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Oh, yeah.

[Tyler]

It's good. Good outdoor workout, too.

[Miles]

So you just gotta assume something's gonna go wrong.

[Ryan]

Yep. I like that.

[Miles]

If there was a time you went ice fishing and nothing went wrong, you better go buy a lottery ticket.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. The times can be stressful. You just gotta make good moments out of them.

[Miles]

Yeah. The one time it was going really well, the DNR guy showed up.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Yeah. It's asking for our licenses stuff. It's just. Do you have them? Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Tyler]

Miles bought his about an hour before that. Completely legal.

[Miles]

I don't think I've ever bought a hunting or fishing license any sooner than less than 24 hours. What I do this year on the way out to down to South Dakota on the drive there. Ah, I forgot I got to do that.

[Tyler]

It's this you're sitting option, Right.

[Ryan]

Two minutes till legal, shooting light, opening morning or rifle season on his phone in the stand behind his tag. It'll come in the mail. I'll be able to put it.

[Miles]

No, that one I do the day before. Because you can't do it online.

[Ryan]

You can, but you got to do it. They shut the shop down like a month before season. Otherwise they don't have time to send them to you. Yeah.

[Miles]

And if you think I'm thinking about that a month ahead of time, that's crazy. I mean, I don't know what I'm gonna do if, like, if I there may. There's gonna be a year where I forget to get a tag. I just now be able to go hunting. Hey, in how many years I've already been hunting. I'm due for that. I'm just gonna forget.

[Jared]

Can you get like auto renew or you have to do the whole thing over.

[Ryan]

You could buy a lifetime license.

[Jared]

There you go.

[Ryan]

In certain states.

[Miles]

Yeah. So when my brother lived in Minnesota, he got a lifetime license.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Now he lives in North Dakota. You just keep it forever? Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah. It's a good deal. It pays itself off.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

My deer license is like 185 bucks, and his just doesn't cost anything.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

He's like, isn't some fee or something. He's got to pay or is it just free?

[Ryan]

I think it's free.

[Miles]

It sucks.

[Tyler]

Friendship.

[Ryan]

Like you maybe have to pay for your. Like if you want to duck on your duck stamps or some like that.

[Miles]

I should have got a lifetime license when I went to college. I should have changed my residence to Minnesota for a year. I do got a lake cabin in Minnesota. I maybe change my. My residence to there.

[Ryan]

You start spending six months in one day. There's there for a year. What are they gonna.

[Tyler]

They're gonna come see if you're sleeping there.

[Jared]

Can you get dual DNRs looking through the thing?

[Tyler]

Are his eyes shut? His eyes aren't shot. He's not sleeping. It doesn't count.

[Ryan]

You can get dual residency for countries. Can you get dual residency for states?

[Miles]

You. No, I don't think so.

[Tyler]

Maybe I don't want to speak on it. Don't know.

[Miles]

Yeah, I don't. I don't speak definitively about.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's. That's podcast. This podcast is known for us not just spewing.

[Miles]

We never. We never give opinions that we have nothing to back it up on.

[Ryan]

Yeah, we have to know all the facts first.

[Jared]

We don't backpedal either.

[Ryan]

Oh, I got some more fishing etiquette.

[Tyler]

Me too. I got one.

[Ryan]

Hit me.

[Tyler]

Go ahead.

[Ryan]

All right, so this, this applies mostly to rattle reels or tip ups. But I like to operate on a. Every hole is available to everyone, so you don't have to pick like one hole. It's flag or rattles. It's your. If it's your turn, it's two strikes in your out out, not three. So if you miss two fish, next guy's turn.

[Miles]

Oh, my God. He's got so many rules.

[Tyler]

We just go. Whoever gets there first.

[Jared]

Could be lying though, huh? You could be lying, though. You said you have to lie about everything.

[Ryan]

That's true. You lie about your miss. Yeah.

[Tyler]

You can just have your back turn. Your buddies don't want to run out there, really have your back turn.

[Ryan]

If you set the hook twice and there's no fish on the end of that line, your turn is forfeited. Okay.

[Miles]

Tyler does love a good game with a hefty set of rules.

[Ryan]

That is not a hefty rule.

[Miles]

No, I know. Compared to, you know, the alternative. I just like when you guys were doing the, the, the golf games on Breakfast Ball. When you guys explained different golf games, you were. You were frock hard, dude.

[Ryan]

I like. I like games.

[Miles]

Tyler's the guy at the party that loves explaining all of the rules to everyone how to play.

[Ryan]

I am good at it though. It's a special skill to be able to explain rules. It is To a group of people and I think I'm good at it.

[Tyler]

Like I think I'm the best Boom cup player, but I couldn't explain the rules to anybody.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Tyler]

It's because it's just how I know how to play.

[Ryan]

I honestly think I was born to be a referee and I just missed my calling.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

I ended up podcasting when I should be a zebra.

[Tyler]

I could see you belling belly crawling over the wrestling mat on Saturday.

[Ryan]

Sunday morning I did get my reffing license. Never did it though. For what I was gonna. Extra cash. They're paid for what sport wrestling thing. Like right after college.

[Tyler]

One, two. And Tyler right away he goes one, two, three. And it hits his hand like a wwe.

[Ryan]

Immediately fired.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Ref, there's a three count. Greco Roman.

[Ryan]

You count back points or he like.

[Jared]

Turns his back like a WWE ref.

[Tyler]

Like.

[Ryan]

I just get chaired by the appeal. One of the wrestlers coaches.

[Jared]

Oh, I watched.

[Miles]

Have to wear sweat bands on their wrists.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Like everyone.

[Ryan]

They're color coded. So there's a red wrist and a green list. And whoever scores, you raise that hand with the points is right.

[Tyler]

Always go on the red.

[Ryan]

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

[Tyler]

Red always go on the right.

[Ryan]

That would make sense.

[Tyler]

Imagine you're just giving the other kid points. You just don't know it. The kid. The kid. The shitty wrestler. Text the other guy. Fifteen. Nothing.

[Ryan]

I mean, I think they would. They would boost. Review that.

[Jared]

Rules are rules though.

[Tyler]

That'd be awesome.

[Miles]

That's. Yeah. It's a good system. I guess. It just. You just look so nerdy sitting there standing there rolling around on your belly with sweat bands on.

[Tyler]

You know, belly crawling. I mean, see the shoulder?

[Miles]

What would be the alternative? He could wear like just like receiver gloves that are different colored. Be cooler than sweatbands.

[Ryan]

I don't think so. I think a guy with a striped T shirt with two gloves on is way worse than sweatpants. That's way worse.

[Tyler]

They should put the ref in a zebra singlet.

[Jared]

That's smart.

[Tyler]

Full zebra singlet.

[Ryan]

People always talk about like, what would be the worst sport for the coach to dress up like the players. Like baseball. It's for sure. Wrestling.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

No, I. I would agree.

[Miles]

Yeah. Or gymnastics.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Miles]

If you're the. If you're the female gymnastics coach.

[Ryan]

You just got your ass hanging out.

[Miles]

You just look like bull rat.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Or or, or like diving is where the little speedo.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Water, Water pole coaches on the sideline, high fiving. You in his speedo. A little overweight. Is it a side.

[Miles]

Sitting on the bench like this, this leg up, nut sack hanging out.

[Ryan]

Is it, Is it a sideline in swimming?

[Miles]

God.

[Ryan]

I mean, where's Jake when you need it? Yeah.

[Jared]

Jake would know right away.

[Miles]

You were asking the wrong guy.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I have no idea.

[Miles]

I don't. I. I guess now I think. I don't know if I've ever even seen a coach on the sideline.

[Ryan]

What are they gonna do? They can't hear him. Cheer them on.

[Jared]

Go.

[Ryan]

Keep, Keep swimming. Yep. Good job. Turn, turn. Now you're at the wall.

[Tyler]

Maybe they communicate like orcas do sonar. Yeah. Some sort of dolphins. Yeah, dolphins.

[Miles]

What we talk about.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I mean, I got one. I got one more, but I, I, I. We just, We. I think we should. Should we just end it on. That's good.

[Jared]

Whatever you want.

[Tyler]

Okay, I got one more. You always gotta. You always gotta make sure that your buddy is the one who brings the fish bucket so that you don't then have to clean out a fish bucket at the end of the day. And then also it's. It's just a better excuse for him to clean them out of his house if they're in his bucket.

[Ryan]

But then he doesn't get to keep the fish.

[Tyler]

No, you. You divide them out.

[Ryan]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Yeah, you wash them. You. You be the washer. But, yeah, I mean, yeah, you're not dirtying up a bucket. You ain't got a clean fish.

[Ryan]

So done and thought.

[Tyler]

See, that's why we shouldn't have it, because there's no, there's just no banter on that one. Just ended on a high note.

[Ryan]

It was a good filler.

[Tyler]

That's true.

[Ryan]

Ryan's plankton.

[Tyler]

That is true. It's a good filler. Yeah.

[Ryan]

All right, now.

[Tyler]

Good thing this is a podcast.

[Ryan]

Now that we're full.

[Miles]

It'S also been very cold out.

[Ryan]

Very cold out.

[Miles]

But I would say that it's on all bad. Oh, what do you guys think?

[Ryan]

I'd say there's a few things.

[Miles]

Like, I think, you know, like, at face value, you open up your weather app and you see that it's negative 20. Feels like negative 30. And you're like, why do I live here? But I like, you know, you guys know me. I'm a perpetual optimist.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah. If I knew anything about you.

[Miles]

And so I always try to see the silver lining in things. You Know, I never let some bad ruin my day. Never had that happen. And so I was wondering with you guys, with the. With the cold snap that we're in, you know, it isn't. It's not. It's a snap. I don't know what the alternative is.

[Ryan]

Cold streak.

[Miles]

Streak. No, it's a snap.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Miles]

It's not a streak. This cold snap that we're currently living through. Through. What do you guys think are some good things about it being freezing cold out?

[Ryan]

One good thing about it being freezing cold out is I feel really manly for some reason when my mustache freezes. I don't know why. Like, and when I had a beard, I felt really cool.

[Miles]

It takes every bit because as soon as you start feeling it too, it melts.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Miles]

So the. The. The mental fortitude it takes to know that your mustache is frozen and not feel it or, like, feel it with your tongue.

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Miles]

Takes a lot. And that's manly if you can do that.

[Ryan]

I just feel like some. Some old dude in the frontier, like, making my way across the plains in the frigid cold, even though I'm just trying to jump start my buddy's car.

[Miles]

You just shot your caribou and you're bringing it back to the cabin.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I like Leo in the rev. In. In it.

[Miles]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tyler]

You wrap up in the. In the hide of that caribou.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I got a.

[Miles]

No, no, he. He got inside a horse, didn't he?

[Ryan]

Yeah, he cut open my horse and slept in it.

[Jared]

Empire Strikes Back.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Spoiler.

[Jared]

Taunton. Sorry.

[Miles]

He does die, I think, right?

[Tyler]

Pretty sure, yeah.

[Miles]

So the whole horse stunt was all for not.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah, he made it. He made it another day, though. I think that was after the bear killed the horse. I'm pretty sure.

[Miles]

Yeah, something like that.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

I don't know. I think another good thing about it being freezing cold is you have the perfect excuse just to sit inside at home on your ass and not do it.

[Ryan]

Yeah. I wrote guilt. Guilt free. Laziness.

[Miles]

Correct. It's like, what am I? You want me to run errands today?

[Ryan]

Oh, it's freezing.

[Miles]

It take me a half hour to.

[Tyler]

Bundle up the truck run for an hour at least. And if it doesn't Astro start. You can't go outside and manually start it.

[Miles]

Brother came over to watch the national championship last night and used the cold weather as an excuse to park in my garage. He moved a bunch of out of the way so he get his little smart car in there. Didn't put anything back. I actually opened the Garage this morning and I was pissed. Turned into my dad. He didn't put my back where it was.

[Tyler]

Dad don't get to a guy.

[Ryan]

Your body language and your tone just changed dramatically.

[Miles]

Yeah. Cuz I forgot about it till now from.

[Ryan]

From the second you said smart car, we had a different miles in the room. Yeah.

[Tyler]

It's a good thing that nothing ever bothers you.

[Miles]

Optimist.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Paternal optimist.

[Miles]

So yeah. You know, thought I was doing good deed letting him park inside and give the guy an inch. He takes a mile.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Ryan]

Stupid little smart car.

[Tyler]

Ungrateful. Yeah, I'll pick that up and throw it outside.

[Miles]

Oh God. This one I like.

[Ryan]

Love.

[Tyler]

Me too.

[Miles]

1. It's great when it's minus 20 out because you have something to brag about to all your more southern friends.

[Tyler]

I wr.

[Ryan]

I wrote down badge of honor.

[Miles]

It's like. Yeah, you're like. You get to brag about how shitty it is to live here and it's just such a good feeling. You. You don't get it unless you're that guy. You know, if you're. Even if you're two states lower than us, you don't get it. You know, it's like they're not a part of your exclusive club.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

It's a cl. I mean this is the most. The most best example ever for you. Just had to be there. You didn't get. You don't get it.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

You didn't survive the cold snap of 2025.

[Miles]

Yeah. Or the polar vortex of 2019.

[Tyler]

2019. And if only somebody would make shirts.

[Miles]

Vortex survival. We didn't do cold snap Survivor of 2025.

[Tyler]

I mean it's been negative 30.

[Miles]

So I think that you don't. You just get to brag about it. It's like they. That is something that they could never brag about it being negative 20 out.

[Ryan]

No, I mean like a Midwesterner goes on vacation and you tell someone where you're from, like, does it really get that cold up there? And immediately the Midwesterner opens up like, oh yeah. It gets be 30 below sometimes in the winter.

[Jared]

Feels so good.

[Miles]

Zero degrees is nothing.

[Ryan]

We act so much.

[Miles]

We had a. We had a cold snap this winter. Got to negative 30. So. Yeah.

[Tyler]

And you live through that.

[Ryan]

Oh yeah.

[Miles]

What do you like, what do you guys do? Ah, you just don't go outside.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Well, you know, born and raised here is a thick skin by now.

[Ryan]

Get pretty used to it after a couple years.

[Miles]

Honestly, when it gets to be like 10 degrees is T shirt weather.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Wear a T shirt and crew neck.

[Ryan]

And in reality, we're all just huddled in our house, wrapped up in blankets, watching Netflix.

[Miles]

I literally don't step foot outside. I go into the garage at my house, get in my car, in my heated garage.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Drive to work. Drive into the. The warehouse. Garage door.

[Ryan]

Heated warehouse.

[Miles]

Heated warehouse. So I 20. I haven't touched outside in like a week.

[Ryan]

You got to get this snow to melt so you could touch some grass.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Jared]

But if you made a seller, you'd be like, oh, it's so.

[Miles]

Yeah, I'd be like, yeah. Suddenly I now have to park a quarter mile away from where I'm going. I have to walk through the snow.

[Ryan]

So, yeah, I just sleep in a horse.

[Jared]

You see the rev that.

[Ryan]

Yeah. That's based on us.

[Miles]

Is that kind of.

[Ryan]

It's like Montana, I think Canada.

[Jared]

Same church.

[Ryan]

Yeah. I don't know. I put last one another. This is more some filler.

[Tyler]

I haven't fucking said one yet.

[Ryan]

Me get my filler in quick.

[Tyler]

It's like you're behind the glass.

[Miles]

It's a filler one. Let me say a real one.

[Ryan]

Okay.

[Miles]

You got a filler one?

[Tyler]

No, I mean, I haven't said one. I haven't said a single one.

[Ryan]

We'll let Jared get one out quick.

[Jared]

Just like.

[Miles]

Well, Ryan, go ahead.

[Tyler]

God. I want. Best thing about the cold. Coffee just hits different when it's cold. I mean, like, you drink a warm cup of coffee in the summer, it's like, okay, and just get the caffeine buzz. But in the winter time, it's like you really enjoy it.

[Ryan]

You going Irish or no?

[Jared]

Good question.

[Tyler]

I mean, I. I'd say I drink Irish coffee all the time.

[Miles]

You know what? I actually believe you. You look like an Irish coffee guy.

[Ryan]

You are.

[Tyler]

I am Scott's Irish.

[Ryan]

Or Sheili.

[Tyler]

No, but I am. I am Scott's Irish. Yeah. About 25%.

[Miles]

So I would agree. A thermos of coffee just hits different.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Watching it steam. Watch what's a.

[Miles]

You do you put your hands on it.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

To warm your hands up a little.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Miles]

And hold it right up to your face.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Oh, God.

[Jared]

It'd be great for the Instagram.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Yeah. You gotta slurp it too.

[Miles]

And you gotta make this face too.

[Tyler]

Purse the lips, flare the nostrils, half.

[Ryan]

Smile, close the eyes.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

I think another great thing about the cold is, is you get to use all of the gear you spent a shitload of money on, like snow bibs. Some winter jackets are some of the Most expensive clothes you buy. And when you have a winter where it's not that cold, you don't break them out. You kind of feel like, why did I buy that?

[Ryan]

You pull them out of the closet. They kind of smell a little musty.

[Miles]

Worn in every time. You can use your cold winter gear that you spent a fortune on. Pretty nice.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Does help.

[Tyler]

Sometimes I just wear mine inside just because it's winter out and you can.

[Miles]

Yeah, sometimes I just, like, turn off the heat in my house and I wear them just to get my money's worth.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Until like, that freezing point of the pipes. And I'll turn the heat back on.

[Miles]

Yeah. As soon as you hear some cricking and cracking in the walls, you gotta pop that heat back on.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Tomorrow, if that H vac's not fixed, I might have to wear the old ice fishing bibs in here. I was halfway there today.

[Ryan]

So.

[Tyler]

Another one really nice. Really nice thing about when it's freezing cold out. Clears the nasal passages.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Like. Like people from the south just wouldn't understand what it's like to take a deep breath in. Into your nose, and it just clears everything out.

[Ryan]

Dude, I think I might have discovered a new hangover hack this weekend. So. Drank a little bit on Saturday. Enough to have a hangover on Sunday.

[Miles]

Oh, yeah.

[Ryan]

Went out sledding with the kids in the super cold because they were driving me nuts. They're just begging me to sled so we would bundled up, went out there. I was completely fine after 30 minutes outside in the freezing cold.

[Miles]

You know what Tyler just discovered? Fresh air.

[Jared]

Yep.

[Ryan]

I mean, I think it has something to do also with the nasal passage. Like, you get stuffed up after you're hungover over, not a lick of it the rest of the day.

[Tyler]

And it's super dry out. I mean, that Dew point's like 100 or like negative 22, I think.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Some dude expl. You said you were. Patron. Commented about the dew point. Said you were this close to nailing it. Like, you weren't wrong. You just were saying it wrong, essentially. And then he. You knew.

[Tyler]

You just didn't know how to.

[Miles]

I understand the gist, yes, but, you know, not well enough to be able to explain it to a labor. Not like Tyler being able to explain the rules of any game.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Simply.

[Ryan]

I think. I think I might be a rule savant.

[Miles]

I think so. Just nothing lights a guy's face up like Tyler when he's got to read rules.

[Ryan]

Because, I mean, if you don't know the rules, how Are you going to break them?

[Miles]

You're not a rule break guy though. You're like. Just by the book.

[Jared]

Maybe by the rule book.

[Miles]

Yeah. You literally wrote the book. The rule book.

[Ryan]

I could write a rule book.

[Miles]

But at the same time, you are a rule breaker. Gotta start over. What about you, Jared? What do you like about the freezing cold soup?

[Jared]

You can eat soup this time.

[Ryan]

Hell yeah.

[Tyler]

Good soup.

[Jared]

Awesome soup.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Handmade chili the other night.

[Tyler]

Is it a soup or is that a soup?

[Miles]

Ah, I forgot. I don't want to open up that can of chili.

[Tyler]

Chili.

[Ryan]

I think it's more of a chowder.

[Tyler]

I don't think that's right either.

[Miles]

But, but we, we had this discussion at some point, right?

[Jared]

I don't remember.

[Tyler]

No, we did. We definitely did.

[Miles]

Yeah, we definitely did. And then I was like, oh, you guys ever had chili and cinnamon rolls? And then like one of you guys was like, what the.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Then I was like, I think it's like a Midwest school thing because we had them at school. So that's probably episode 112. If you bet your radio summed up.

[Tyler]

Someone could pull tape on it.

[Jared]

We could tape on that.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Jared]

But every kind of soup is awesome.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Can't do it in the summer.

[Ryan]

Even the shitty soups are better when it's freezing cold.

[Jared]

Yep. All soup now.

[Miles]

I'm. I'm turning into a cup of soup guy.

[Tyler]

Really? Restaurants you transit.

[Miles]

Were.

[Tyler]

Were you a side salad guy?

[Miles]

Well, yeah.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Miles]

Well, yeah, I just, I just would never. My brain never even would think to get a cup of soup.

[Tyler]

Mine either.

[Miles]

Just not the way I was wired.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Miles]

And then I hit 30 years old and all of a sudden I' like, tell me the specials and what your soup of the day. I don't know, I just flipped a switch.

[Ryan]

I've always been the, the cup of soup guy. Especially with like a sandwich at a restaurant. Cup of soup hits different.

[Tyler]

Always. I'm just saying be careful.

[Miles]

Here we go.

[Ryan]

What. What kid wants?

[Miles]

No, I'm looking out for you. If you eat a sandwich at a restaurant without soup.

[Ryan]

What?

[Tyler]

I'm looking out for you.

[Ryan]

No. What kid wants a side salad? I was always getting soup. If I have the option to eat salad and a soup, I'm getting the soup.

[Miles]

As a kid, I never got the option for a side salad or a soup. I feel you just got whatever the kids meal was.

[Ryan]

I was ordering sandwiches.

[Tyler]

I just get fries.

[Ryan]

I mean, but if they're like, do you want a super salad with that? If it's soup every time I'm not a salad guy. You guys know this. This.

[Jared]

I didn't know that.

[Ryan]

Now you know it.

[Miles]

Okay, so what I've learned from this conversation is one, you can't ever eat salad ever again.

[Ryan]

I'll eat chicken salad.

[Miles]

If I ever see you eating su. Eating a sandwich at a restaurant without soup, you're fired.

[Ryan]

Okay?

[Miles]

That's what I got out of that.

[Tyler]

I'm just looking out for you.

[Ryan]

You should take me to lunch a bunch of days to test the theory.

[Miles]

Yeah, you're buying.

[Tyler]

Nice.

[Ryan]

I'm gonna just get the soup then.

[Jared]

Soup full of it.

[Tyler]

My mother in law, she orders soup.

[Miles]

And.

[Tyler]

And this is definitive. Every time we go out to eat cup of soup.

[Ryan]

What if you go somewhere that doesn't have soup?

[Miles]

Ryan, I'm. I'm like two years out from that.

[Tyler]

No, I know. You're. You're. That's where you're trending right now.

[Miles]

Yeah, I am.

[Jared]

Do you have any go to soup smiles at restaurants?

[Miles]

Like a wild rice soup. Chicken tortilla is good.

[Ryan]

Be cheese broccoli.

[Miles]

I used to like potato soup more, but I've kind of moved on from that.

[Tyler]

That big miso guy.

[Ryan]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Tyler]

Bone broth.

[Miles]

Trying to think of what else.

[Ryan]

Miso soup is literally the only time I'll ever consider eating tofu.

[Tyler]

Yeah, same.

[Miles]

Anne's kind of turned me into a noki guy.

[Ryan]

Oh, hell yeah.

[Miles]

I like big balls of dough. You guys know that about me.

[Tyler]

Gives me the BG dumplings.

[Miles]

I mean it's basically. It's basically bread in soup form. Yeah. Salty water.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's. It's slack caps.

[Miles]

Very good.

[Ryan]

Nephla gives me the Bee Gees. Neffle's good.

[Miles]

So it's all the cream.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I. I just get Bee Gees bad.

[Miles]

You have one patron question, Jared, or no? Yeah, you didn't have any.

[Jared]

I have one.

[Miles]

So guys, if you want to check it out, we actually have a very large announcement for our Patreon. In how many weeks?

[Jared]

A couple weeks.

[Miles]

Couple weeks. This is the announcement of the announcement in a couple weeks of something we will announce for Patreon. So this is the pre announcement.

[Jared]

We're like Dana White. We just announced.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Jared]

We don't. Announcements.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

I would like to announce that in two weeks I will have an announcement.

[Jared]

That's what he does.

[Tyler]

I'm gonna have to subscribe now. So I know what the announcement is. Flying blind right now.

[Jared]

That's good.

[Ryan]

Yeah. You're heavily involved. Yeah.

[Miles]

Don't find out. It'll be way more Fun if you learn real time.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Ryan]

We also need you to prepare for it.

[Miles]

So guys, if you want to check out Patreon, we got all sorts of content on there. Go to patreon.com.

[Tyler]

What did you just.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah. We got all kinds of condoms on there.

[Tyler]

Contact. Let that one slide.

[Miles]

I don't. I mean, I laughed. I don't know, dude. I. I've been.

[Jared]

It's been so cold.

[Miles]

It's like the cold. I can't feel my sinuses. So dry.

[Tyler]

I know that dew point, the H vac.

[Miles]

The dew point, the H Vac. It's. It's real problematic for a guy like me this time of year. Just patreon.com you bet your radio. Just go check it out.

[Jared]

Jack. Shotgun. So I was gifted a yeti cooler. Is it exceptional to keep and use or must I burn it at the stake?

[Tyler]

Don't burn it.

[Miles]

No, no, no. Sell it on if you got it as a gift. Yes. You're going to say the cliche got as a gift. But it's like, I think what he needs to do because people are going to be like, oh, Yeti. Wow, that's a nice cooler. We need to start making stickers for yetis that just say I got it as a gift right on the top. So you don't even act to have to explain why you were the idiot that bought it because you're like, I got it as a gift.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Miles]

So I would just take some tape, put it on top. Just says I got it as a gift. Free to use it after that.

[Ryan]

Yeah. Cuz we, we, we don't disregard that. It is a quality product.

[Miles]

Yeah. They do exactly as intended. You just don't need it to do all of the features that it says, I don't need to protect my beer from a bear when I'm on a pontoon. You know.

[Ryan]

Ah, you got to watch out for those lake bears.

[Miles]

You never know. So I think, yeah, don't, don't. Well, definitely don't burn it, but you should definitely. You keep it. Selling it's a great option. Get some hefty cash for that.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I don't think you can burn it. I think they're burn proof. Part of what you pay for comes out of the fire.

[Ryan]

I mean, also too, like, if you really don't want to be seen with it, you could give it as a gift. Again, re gift it.

[Jared]

That's a good idea.

[Miles]

Or slap a you Betty sticker over it. We got any of those left on the side?

[Tyler]

No. God no.

[Ryan]

Oh, we'll drum one time.

[Miles]

We should drum one up, send it to Jack. Shotgun.

[Ryan]

We might have a. A stack of them in the storage room.

[Miles]

Yeah, we might have. We'll have to crack open the. You bet you archive.

[Ryan]

If we don't, we'll just peel the one off Jake's laptop and send it to you.

[Miles]

We're literally getting old enough to where we kind of have a company archive of stuff that we've done in the past.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Miles]

First step is archive. Next step is soup with every meal.

[Tyler]

Next step's death.

[Ryan]

Next up is just soup for your meals because you can't have anything solid.

[Jared]

Or you share the soup. So, like, when you get older, you share food as a couple.

[Miles]

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, no. Anna and I started splitting some stuff.

[Jared]

Oh, really?

[Tyler]

Really?

[Jared]

Damn.

[Tyler]

By choice.

[Miles]

It's not. It's not usually full meals, but it's like, you know, let's just get an appetizer or like. Yeah, let's get the bowl of soup and we both can try it. You know, one of those.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. Dessert. Same thing the other night.

[Miles]

We got ice cream. You know, we just got one. We shared it. It's kind of one of those deals.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Like lady and the Tramp type deal.

[Ryan]

Except if we get. If I get regular fries and Becca gets sweet potato fries, we'll split. I'll give her some of mine. I'll take some of her sweet potatoes.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

With the soup.

[Ryan]

No. If I have fries. No.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Ryan]

I got you a sandwich, though typically not.

[Miles]

Okay.

[Tyler]

What are you. What are you getting?

[Ryan]

The instance that I'm thinking of specifically, I was at a bar near my house, and I. I got chicken drummies like a child.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Miles]

I'm gonna be honest. It's getting exhausting trying to keep with all the stuff I'm supposed to be calling Tyler out on. I mean, what's the list is getting so long. Grilling Irish coffees now a soup du jour. The list goes on and all.

[Ryan]

I think that's the whole list.

[Miles]

I mean.

[Ryan]

There'S.

[Miles]

God, something else I'm not even thinking of.

[Tyler]

This is so long.

[Ryan]

To the things mine. Mine just never die. You guys never let mine go. Like, we're over Diet Coke already. We're on to 75 hard with Ryan. Ryan, you get, like, one big one at a time, and I get, like, a bunch of little ones all at once.

[Miles]

Just some of the stuff that you declare, you know?

[Tyler]

Yeah, I just don't speak definitively, so I can just. I can. I have rebuttals to Whatever people are.

[Ryan]

Saying, you know, we did roll tape.

[Miles]

So anyways, guys. Is that it?

[Jared]

Jared, two fun facts.

[Miles]

Oh, yeah, I forgot about fun facts.

[Ryan]

These better be fun.

[Jared]

There are more fake plastic flamingos for sale than there are living flamingos on the planet. There are estimated 2.3 million living flamingos in the world. But over 50 million plastic flamingos have been produced.

[Miles]

Classic consumerism.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

You know, killing all the flamingos and turn them into plastic beer bong. It's all the flabongos. I've never done a flabongo. I haven't either. Are they all that cracked up to be.

[Ryan]

I don't know if I've ever. I've watched Grandpa Dave do one in Myrtle Beach.

[Miles]

So Grandpa Dave's done one and I haven't.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I have a video of it.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Miles]

That is a fun fact.

[Tyler]

Crazy.

[Miles]

I mean, also, flamingos, they have a tough climate that they need to live in. Right? Like, not tough stuff. Like it's got to be pretty nice.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Pretty nice for them.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's the nice thing about plastic flamingos. They can survive pretty much anywhere.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

You're not gonna have a real flamingo flying into a set of decoys up here.

[Miles]

Yeah, that'd be crazy. Imagine going flamingo hunting.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that would be kind of sweet.

[Tyler]

Yeah. I'm. Sandhill Crane is damn near the same thing. They just don't lift one leg up.

[Miles]

Do fluigos fly?

[Jared]

I didn't look that up.

[Miles]

They don't like to fly though, right?

[Ryan]

I don't know. I know. They do fly though.

[Jared]

The first McDonald's drive thru was introduced in Sierra Vista, Arizona in 1975. Soldiers in uniform were not allowed to enter restaurants due to military protocol. So McDonald's came up with a solution. They cut a hole in the wall to serve the soldiers without them having to step inside.

[Ryan]

What a strange protocol.

[Miles]

Why was that the protocol?

[Jared]

The military policy at the time restricted soldiers in uniform from entering certain establishments, restaurants, including restaurants, to maintain a professional appearance and avoid any situation that might compromise the dignity of the uniform.

[Miles]

So, like if. Right. You're gonna spill queso right on your uniform or what? It's like trying to save money on dry cleaning back in the day.

[Ryan]

So that instead of going into a restaurant to remain dignified, they went to the hole in the wall at the restaurant.

[Miles]

They did. Literally did a food glory hole.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

With their military uniform on, if we're being honest.

[Jared]

Yeah. Suppose if you don't like, cause a scene so it doesn't make. I don't know, in uniform.

[Miles]

Yeah. You know, I. I would not have guessed. That's where the drive through came. Came up. That one. That one was a fun fact.

[Jared]

Really?

[Miles]

Oh, yeah. Okay. You should start keeping track of ones that I deem fun, and then we can have a best of facts episode.

[Ryan]

And we'll have forgotten them all.

[Miles]

Well, no, he's. You'll keep track.

[Ryan]

No, like us. We'll be, like, hearing for the first time again.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Or just recycle them. Every week he's like, oh, that is a fun.

[Miles]

That is fun. Or see how much my mood changes week to week. One week I deem it fun, another week I wouldn't.

[Ryan]

Jared has. Can quite literally foresee all the questions because he's done it over and over and over.

[Tyler]

You are really good at fun facts.

[Miles]

The best episode ever. All right. Is that it, boys? Well, guys, thanks for tuning in to another episode of the you Bet Your radio podcast. May your flamingos fly and your McDonald's be handed to you through a glory hole in the side of the building. Cheers, Ryan. Oh, you betcha. Yeah. Yeah.

[E]

Dave was out there taking car batteries in the snow he'd move with ease Tyler loved a super with a sandwich delight Roofing houses in the pale moonlight Cold snap hit us like a thief.

[Tyler]

In the night.

[E]

Milo's with his optimum burning bright Flamingos in the garden A gift from Ken Thought a yeti could keep the frost from creeping in Concrete poured as the sun set low Tyler loved the rules he'd always know Shakes in the morning Bundled up tight hoping for warmth praying for life Cold snap hit us like a thief in the.

[Miles]

Night night.

[E]

Miles with his optimum burning bright Flamingos in the garden A gift from Ken Thought a yeti could keep the frost from creeping in Dave shoulders heavy, life's weight to bear Tyler followed rules cuz he always cared Miles kept dreaming never lost his spark Even on the nights when the world got dark reminiscing 90s tunes on the radio Time keeps flying but memories so yet he's in the backyard Flamingos by the side get so warm through the colder town oh cold snap hit us like a thief in the night Miles with his optimum burning bright Flamingos in the garden A gift from Kim Thought a yeti could keep the frost from creeping in Cold stacks appear just like a thief.

[Jared]

In the night what's the best food and drink combo to combat a hangover?

[Miles]

I mean, you know me. Give me the largest bag of McDonald's you got.

[Tyler]

Yeah, dude.

[Miles]

And pair it with the largest strawberry Shake you got. If I can do that, I'm back to 0.

[Jared]

100.

[Miles]

Well, no, because I was negative.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah, it was low as.

[Tyler]

Yeah, it's like that first cup of.

[Miles]

Coffee when I'm negative 22 Dew Point. Like it's going to be on Monday or like it is today actually.

[Tyler]

Yeah, it's dry out. So I'm a big. This is gonna be an odd one. I'm a huge leftover Chinese and a D.C. type of guy after.

[Ryan]

In the morning. Morning.

[Tyler]

No, I mean I'm not eating breakfast.

[Miles]

Yeah, I mean I'm not. If I'm really hung, I'm not waking up till 11.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I'm at least gonna lay in bed until like an early lunch.

[Ryan]

So what do you do if you've already had your DC for the quarter and you're hungover on a Tuesday for some reason?

[Tyler]

Well, it's not a quarter by quarter basis. It's just a weekend by weekend basis.

[Ryan]

But what if, what if you're hungover in a midweek? What do you do?

[Miles]

You're.

[Tyler]

Well, yeah, then I'm. Then I'm just leftover Chinese and I'm. Damn it, I want coffee or something.

[Ryan]

I'm with you on the Chinese. Leftover or not Chinese, I love Chinese.

[Miles]

I think I would never wake up hung over and be like, guy, I want some Chinese.

[Ryan]

The amount of times to be left over though, I, I, I disagree with that. But I'm, I just. The amount of times I've door dash Chinese hung over in college.

[Miles]

Must have been nice having door dash when you were in college.

[Tyler]

Yeah, we had to drive to the restaurant and.

[Miles]

Yeah, we had to get our food. We had to call the restaurant and order deliver was crazy.

[Ryan]

You guys didn't. You're like a year older than me.

[Miles]

I didn't, I didn't have doordash in college. Yeah, did we. When did doordash get invented? We definitely didn't have it in Fargo.

[Ryan]

I lived in moored I doordash to my college house all the time.

[Miles]

You're. You're two at least two years younger than me, aren't you?

[Ryan]

Two grades. Yeah, I think I'm a year and a half younger than you guys. Yeah.

[Miles]

I don't know. I don't remember. So up.

[Tyler]

That's so up. You guys. Guys. What about you, Jared?

[Jared]

I like FA a lot when I'm hungover.

[Ryan]

Interesting.

[Tyler]

Fa. Fa. Huh?

[Ryan]

What the fa.

[Tyler]

Dude, that's.

[Miles]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Seems like it'd be a little too.

[Jared]

Much liquid, but it's really salty too.

[Tyler]

Good Point electrolytes.

[Jared]

So it's kind of the cousin to the Chinese.

[Tyler]

Good point.

[Jared]

Sort of.

[Ryan]

It's Vietnamese, right?

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Miles]

So.

[Tyler]

Yeah, same blood, different family.

[Jared]

Exactly.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I get it.

[Miles]

You have a very sophisticated hungover.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Miles]

Palette.

[Jared]

But that's like if. Yeah, that's like my ultimate. If I had to choose, that's what I would choose.

[Miles]

See, because I'm. I'm trying to fill my stomach up with as much food possible and I think about eating a soup and I'm.

[Jared]

Like, yeah, it's just really salty. Yeah, highly recommend.

[Ryan]

Recommend it, but give it a try.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I might get can on day 76 and then order some pho. What the. Dude?

[Ryan]

Oh, yeah.

[Miles]

I'll maybe have to try it out. That's good.

[Ryan]

You mother far.

[Tyler]

What the. You guys serve here?

[Ryan]

Hey, follow me up. Give me some of that.

[Miles]

Why can't they name it something different? You know, I'm just not calling it fun.

[Jared]

F. F. Some people call it fo.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I've heard it called faux.

[Miles]

Yeah, you called it F. You called it fu. And some people call it foe. So what is it?

[Jared]

I don't. I don't know.

[Tyler]

Yeah, well, I'll be getting that faux show.

[Jared]

F sure.

[Tyler]

F sure. F sure.

[Jared]

The Fairmont puker asks, what are things that make you say ah.

[Miles]

When I. For when I tell my wife I am leaving the office in a few minutes and then I get distracted by something and 30 minutes later she calls me. Oh, oh, forgot I was supposed to leave.

[Tyler]

Getting that phone call.

[Miles]

That's the worst that happened to me last night. That's an off. Hitting a light pole in a parking lot.

[Tyler]

Oh, yeah, that'll make you say off real quick.

[Ryan]

Like just being just too far away to turn around and get something you forgot. God.

[Tyler]

Yeah, it's more of a God instead of an awful.

[Miles]

Even like, I forget your toothbrush. I know. You can just get one anywhere. Yeah, it is kind of.

[Tyler]

Ah, yeah. Or when you forget your chapstick and the dew point's really low, like, oh, 100. But then you should, you know, Dries out for me. For me it's if my kid wakes up like, let's say two hours after going to sleep, if he wakes up and starts crying, I'm like, oh.

[Ryan]

Or for me is when they wake up at like 4:30 in the morning, it's like, ah, now we're all awake.

[Miles]

Doesn't happen to me yet.

[Tyler]

God, that hasn't happened to me yet either. Not. Not in a big boy bed yet.
