Episode Overview

The crew is back with their quintessential Midwest banter, diving into everything from manly lake weekend mishaps and grilling woes, to the ultimate solution for expensive power tools. As always, the tone is loose, irreverent, and full of “guys being dudes” energy. The episode kicks off with light-hearted jabs about cold tubs and marital support, shifts into YouTube shenanigans and beer-cooling science, and crescendos with a surprisingly detailed business pitch for a “tool library”. Expect Midwest nostalgia, grilling debates, and a cascade of “million-dollar” (and some questionable) business ideas—all delivered with sharp wit and a high dose of self-awareness.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Cold Tub Controversy & Lake Weekend Recap

00:00–08:21

• Ryan is caught in a photo with another man in a tub (from last week’s hot tub “anti-man” stance).
  • Ryan: “Number one, it was not a hot tub. It was a cold tub. ... The other guy jumped in and wanted to scissor, is essentially what happened.” (00:54)
  • The group debates "manly" cold vs. hot tub dynamics. Cold tub is "suffering together"; hot tub is "romantic”.
  • Locker room culture—“It’s just guys being dudes.”
  • “When you're in the sauna with other guys, that's fine. But you add water—something becomes wrong with it.” – Jake (03:55)
• Physical consequences of too much lake weekend fun:
  • Skeet shooting, wake surfing, and “old guy” soreness.
  • “Classic 33-year-old guy tries to act 24. Now my mover’s knee is acting up.” – Ryan (06:27)
  • Families at the lake: “Activity families” vs. “Sit-and-chill families.”

2. YouTube Beer Cooling Contest Fails

08:21–21:58

• The team’s most recent video challenge: fastest way to cool a beer.
  • Ryan’s fire extinguisher disaster:
    • “Let’s just say it was nothing short of a disaster.” (09:11)
    • Jake’s disappointment: “I should have pulled the trigger on the CO2 extinguisher... but they’re $250 and I couldn’t get one in time.” (09:24)
  • Other methods included: sinking beer to lake bottom (underwhelming), Tyler’s elaborate “athletic cold tub for beers” using a tiny fan.
  • “What is this, a fan for ants? ... It's a fan for fish.” – Ryan & Tyler (16:46)
  • Tyler confesses to prepping his beer-cooling gadget for “six to nine months”—for a less-than-impressive result.
  • Mythbusters déjà vu: Unknowingly repeated an old Mythbusters experiment; apparently, “water, salt, and ice” wins.
  • Jared missed the filming and laments his absence as the office’s #1 beer drinker.

3. Midwest Grilling, Ribs, and Domestic Life

21:58–32:44

• Rib-cooking milestones:
  • Jared makes ribs for the first time—oven-baked, low and slow, but “not fall off the bone.”
  • “I think I’d like them a little more tender.” – Jared (27:55)
• Hotdog/brat mass grilling war stories:
  • Jake grilled “50 dogs” in 95-degree weather.
  • Tyler, anti-grilling, details his reluctant turn at the grill due to lake campground power outage—still prefers boiling brats at home.
  • Ongoing debate: grilling as fun downtime (“me time”) versus a hated, sweaty chore.
  • “I've determined that grilling is not the me time I crave.” – Tyler (33:01)
  • “If you had Shady Rays sunglasses, Tyler, grilling would be a vibe.” – Ryan (45:07)

4. The Expensive Tool Problem & "Tool Library" Solution

47:00–64:05

(Main Segment)

• The Problem:

  • Tools for content and home projects are “expensive as hell.”
  • “I want to buy all the tools ... But they're expensive, right? They're expensive.” – Ryan (48:13)

• The Solution:

  • A subscription-based tool library, run club-style, with a checkout system.
  • “You and your buddies should pool all your money together and buy all of the tools and then have, like, a library checkout system for it.” – Ryan (48:32)
  • Accountability: Implement a “library records” system—late fees fund new tool purchases, neutral storage location, check-in/check-out policies.
  • Scale-up ideas:
    • Sell “tool library cards” or subscriptions to other friend groups.
    • Franchise the tool club idea & sell “starter tool lists”.
    • Add on services: club “handyman party bus”, tool club events.
    • Loyalty/reward programs: loyal users get perks, discounts, or eventually keep a tool.
    • Automation and security: fob/key system, possible DNA-fingerprint-forensics for theft prevention (satirical escalation).

• Broader vision:

  • Spin-off “sister store” for women (all pink, less intimidating tools).
  • Blue-collar Dave & Buster’s: all the arcade games are construction-themed.
  • Even (half-jokingly) suggest “Carhartt lingerie” and “lingerie rental” concepts.

5. Miscellaneous Midwest Nostalgia & Randoms

64:05–73:42

• Fun Fact: “Despite being one of the largest freshwater lakes, Lake Erie is shallow—62 feet average depth. Huron’s average depth is 195 feet." – Tyler (69:53)
• Geography lesson: Debating where Lake Huron is on the map ("north of Iowa?" etc).
  • “People forget about Huron. Michigan, Superior, Eerie get all the headlines.” – Ryan (70:53)
  • Banter about Midwest town names: “Sheboygan,” “Gaylord," etc.

6. Listener Question: Hot Tub vs. Above Ground Pool

73:38–80:51

• Listener asks what to put on their deck — hot tub or above-ground pool?
  • The consensus: hot tub, hands-down.
  • “Above ground pools make things look trashy.” – Jake (74:29)
  • Above ground pools are maintenance-heavy and bad for property value.
  • Hot tubs: usable year-round, less hassle (despite high electricity bills), easier to sell.
  • Jokes about how having friends over for hot tubs as adults is “swinger behavior.”

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On men sharing tubs:
  • “Two guys in a cold tub on top of each other because they're not gay.” – Tyler (05:09)
  • “Hot water, romantic. Cold water, we're suffering together.” – Tyler (05:30)
• On rib-cooking:
  • “I might get into meats.” – Jared (24:32)
  • “You can't work that hard on ribs and then slather sweet baby rays.” – Tyler (25:10)
• On grilling:
  • “I've determined grilling is not the me time I crave.” – Tyler (33:01)
  • “That’s not going to make or break whether they leave home at 16 or not.” – Jake (32:44)
• On expensiveness of tools and the tool library idea:
  • “If you were like, 'give me $2,000 and I’ll give you access to $12,000 in tools', who isn’t taking that deal?” – Jake (49:52)
  • “Way different than a rental store. It’s a club. …And our tools.” – Tyler (52:41)
  • “You just need one stay-at-home wife to manage the check in/check out.” – Jake (54:45)
• On Midwest homespun business logic:
  • “If you want more, you bet your radio, you gotta check out our Patreon.” – Ryan (81:26)

Episode Flow & Tone

The conversation is fast-paced, sarcastic, and packed with running gags and callbacks (e.g., grilling as suffering, tool-buying FOMO, “Midwest guy” culture). The group displays an easy camaraderie and indulges tangential riffing that brings out regional humor. While the “expensive tool” solution segment hosts some of the most structured thinking, most of the show is an organized free-for-all—a relatable portrait of Midwest guys talking shop and goofing off.

---

Summary Takeaway:
If you’re looking to get a solid laugh, some marginally useful life hacks, and an inside look at how “Midwest man logic” works, this episode is a quintessential You Betcha ride. You’ll learn why grown men won’t share hot tubs, how not to cool beer, and why the future of home DIY may be a power tool club with questionable DNA security protocols. Also, do not buy an above-ground pool.

Transcript

[Tyler]

All right, back to it.

[Ryan]

Welcome back, everybody, to another episode of you Bet yout Radio podcast.

[Jake]

Hello.

[Ryan]

Hey, the boys are back. Why don't you just go ahead and just go. Right off the bat, Tyler was already asking me about it. Just do it. Just. What did the patrons. What were they asking about? Jared?

[Jared]

So you were trashing hot tubs last week, said, why the. Would you ever go in a hot tub with another. No, they're bad.

[Tyler]

This.

[Jared]

That would be so stupid for anybody to ever do that.

[Tyler]

This is verbatim.

[Jared]

That's an actual quote from Miles. And over the weekend, there was a photo of Miles with another man in what looked like a hot tub.

[Ryan]

That is true. All of that is true.

[Jake]

I didn't even put that together. That he said that last week.

[Tyler]

Yep. And last week wasn't the first time. It was a double down on a previous take.

[Ryan]

So number one, it was not a hot tub. So that still holds up. It was a cold tub. And we're at my buddy's lake and he has a sauna and a cold tub pairing. So we went in the sauna and then I, by myself, hopped into the cold tub, and I was doing my five minutes or whatever, and the other guy jumped in and wanted to scissor, is essentially what happened.

[Jake]

So you had no control over. You had no control over the situation?

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah. I was already in the tub. I was doing it by myself. We were all taking turns, and he just jumped in.

[Jake]

Yeah. And if you had got out early, you wouldn't got the health benefits that you normally would have.

[Ryan]

And the guy in the photo is actually Connor McDermott, who is also. Because my buddy, other Connor, he was in the NFL. He was NFL buddy. And so, like, Connor McDermott is like. Want you to think about the most locker room guy you've ever met.

[Tyler]

Sure.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And then you times that by 10 and you get Connor McDermott.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Jake]

And that's kind of what you were doing.

[Ryan]

Lots of locker room activities going on. And so, you know, you don't care if he's going to hop into a cold tub and scissor with another guy.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

You know, and so that was. That was what happened. Okay.

[Jared]

It was a very jarring photo. When I first saw.

[Ryan]

Yeah. I was like, whoa,

[Jake]

Anne's the one who sewered you.

[Ryan]

I know she loves doing that.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

I realized that I have. And I was saying this. I was. We were playing, like, yard beer drinking games all weekend. I have the most unsupportive wife of all time.

[Jake]

Really.

[Ryan]

She was just praying for My downfall sucked.

[Jake]

Was it a quality time thing? She wanted to spend more time with you?

[Ryan]

No, I think she just doesn't like to see me win.

[Tyler]

I mean, I'm going to. I'm going to defend Ann a little bit. When you win, you tend to talk about it a lot, and I'm sure she didn't want to hear that the whole weekend.

[Jake]

That's a good angle, Tyler. Whether it's true or not, we don't know.

[Ryan]

I mean, I was gonna win regardless, so might as well be supportive. But. Yeah, so that was the. That's the story behind that.

[Tyler]

Okay, so you checked out. You were in a hot tub.

[Ryan]

So I was not in a hot tub. I was in a cold tub.

[Tyler]

Haters can zip it. He never said shit about that.

[Ryan]

We were in it together for probably two minutes max.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Tyler]

That's all you need.

[Jared]

If not, if the hot tub was hot, would you have got out of the tub right away if Connor would have jumped in?

[Ryan]

Not right away. I'd have been probably a couple minutes. I don't know.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Ryan]

I don't know.

[Jake]

Is it cool?

[Ryan]

So it was. It was more. You know, it's like. It's also a different scenario, right? Like, the scenario was that this is more of a spa type vibe, right? Like, there's a sauna, there's a cold tub, all that. If it would have been just like. There was just. Everyone was just getting in the hot tub together and there wasn't. It was just like out on the deck. It's a totally different story.

[Jake]

That makes sense.

[Ryan]

You know what I mean?

[Jake]

Yeah. Yeah. And one, I think being in a sauna with other. Other guys, I think that's fine. I think it's when you introduce water into it that there's something becomes wrong with it.

[Tyler]

We have such weird thoughts about water, don't we?

[Jake]

Yeah, it's.

[Tyler]

It doesn't change the scenario that much, but you're right. I don't know if it's just you

[Jake]

can't see their lower half or what.

[Tyler]

I don't know.

[Jake]

You don't know what they're doing under the water.

[Tyler]

It's just hand check every feel that

[Ryan]

you're just all sweating in this same

[Tyler]

pool, but it's like you're breathing in their evaporated sweat in the sauna and we don't have any problem with that.

[Ryan]

That's true. But it was a good weekend. And. Yeah, dude, I don't.

[Jared]

It's.

[Ryan]

It's fine.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Ryan]

There's just guys being dudes.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Ryan]

Which is Totally different than getting into a hot tub with like four other couples. I planned to get into a hot tub with four other couples.

[Jake]

Well, that could be just friends being friends.

[Ryan]

Yeah. It wasn't like me and him that morning were like, all right, dude, so what we're gonna do is we're gonna eat breakfast and then you and I are gonna get in the cold tub together.

[Jared]

You got bum rushed.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it was just spur of the moment.

[Tyler]

Two guys in a cold tub on top of each other because they're not gay. Yeah.

[Jake]

I think it's a relaxation thing too. When you, when you, when you add. When you add relaxation into the situation, I. E. The hot tub, it becomes a little more intimate for some reason. I don't know why, but the cold plunge, you're just trying to grind through and get the. You're doing it for the health benefit. Y. Yeah.

[Tyler]

Hot water, romantic cold water. We're suffering together.

[Jake]

Yeah, exactly.

[Tyler]

Bonding.

[Jake]

Yes.

[Ryan]

And also, Connor McDermott is 6 9, 330 pounds, so he's a big boy.

[Tyler]

You weren't, you weren't getting away even if you tried to run?

[Ryan]

No, I was. I had no choice.

[Jake]

No. Yeah, he was going to chase your ass down.

[Ryan]

He would have caught me too. Yeah. Even at that size.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Get back here.

[Jared]

Where you going, boy?

[Jake]

Happy Gilmore.

[Tyler]

Back in the tub, Miles.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Jake]

Yeah, yeah. And I mean, you could have said you were forced into there with him.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I could have.

[Jake]

And that you would have cleared the whole situation.

[Ryan]

No, I'd like to tell the truth.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Ryan]

Just happened.

[Tyler]

It'll set you free.

[Jared]

You're pretty sore today though too.

[Ryan]

Oh, my God. This is like classic 33 year old guy tries to act like he's 24 again. And now I like my movers knee is completely acted up. Lopper's elbows, My shoulders hurt. Yeah, it was, it was a tough week. It was very fun. But now I'm feeling it.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And it's like not even just from drinking. It's. It's like also just feeling it from just physical activity. I feel like, I feel like in the lake world there's two different types of families. There's the family that's like my buddy Connor, who is like, we are at the lake and we're gonna fit as many activities into one day as possible. And then there's my family that is like, we're gonna go to the lake, we're gonna do a very little amount of activity and do a lot of sitting.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

So when you're used to sitting around at the Lake and then you get thrown into a family of activity people. You're pretty sore, right?

[Jared]

You're not in lake shape.

[Ryan]

Not in lake shape? No.

[Tyler]

You're in certain kind of leg shape.

[Jake]

You're in relaxation shape.

[Ryan]

You know like I went wake surfing this weekend.

[Jake]

Yeah, well that's movers knee that.

[Ryan]

It's just all sorts of stuff. I was telling them we were skeet shooting. I, I, I can't feel my shoulder. Did 125 rounds.

[Jake]

Yeah. Are you bruised up?

[Ryan]

I was, I don't know if I still am. Not too bad. Yeah, I recover pretty fast.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

That's good.

[Jared]

So it was super hot this weekend. So the cold plunge makes a lot more sense too.

[Ryan]

You needed to cool down.

[Tyler]

That should have helped with the soreness. Imagine how bad you'd be without that.

[Ryan]

I know, I know. That cold plunge now is when I need it because we, that was like the first day we were there. We did that. We should have done it the last thing. Idiot bookmarked it.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

So yeah it was, it was a good weekend. And actually over the weekend we also YouTube video we posted was how fast we cool off some beer. And let's just say that Ryan had the biggest blunder of anything I've ever stuff.

[Jake]

Yeah. I mean if the budget.

[Ryan]

The budget. So if you haven't seen the new YouTube video, go watch it. Ryan, myself and Tyler all competed to see in, in unique ways how we could cool off a beer the fastest. And I'll give you a spoiler alert. Ryan decided to go with a lifeguard fire extinguisher.

[Jake]

Yeah, like an aerosol, aerosol fire extinguisher can. Double can.

[Ryan]

And let's just say it was nothing short of a disaster.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

And the original idea was this. It was a CO2 fire extinguisher which on the Internet says this will cool a beer down quick. But they were also 250 bucks and I couldn't get them here in time.

[Tyler]

We, we did post a clip about it and a wasn't the full YouTube video. So people didn't know watching this clip that you had tried this. There was 15 comments about using an extinguisher on that video.

[Jake]

I know dude, I should have pulled the trigger. I, I couldn't get in here in time though.

[Tyler]

You could have just taken one. I mean there's, they're in the hallway.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah, just go down the hall and grab one.

[Jake]

Well I don't think, I don't but I don't know if those are CO2 cuz the CO2 ones have the horn at the end. And apparently they say, do not touch the horn if you're shooting this thing off.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Jake]

So burn your fingers from how cold it is.

[Ryan]

So here's the question, though. Can't you just go to the fire extinguisher store and buy one, like, in town?

[Jake]

Yeah, I have to order one. Like.

[Ryan]

Well, you know, there's got to be a store that sells them in town.

[Jared]

Just a fire extinguisher store.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jake]

You know, I want to say that I looked. I looked at some hardware stores around town and I couldn't find one that was pickup in store. It was all. It was all delivery, so.

[Ryan]

So weird.

[Jared]

Could go to the fire department, ask.

[Tyler]

Yeah. You got any extras?

[Jake]

Good thing for you guys, though, because

[Tyler]

it did help help our cause quite a bit.

[Jake]

You guys missed out on a great time drinking a warm beer.

[Ryan]

Also. We don't. Don't give that away. Jesus R. Sleep that out.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Ryan]

We also tried sinking beer to the bottom of the lake, which I don't know what we were thinking.

[Tyler]

Yeah, it was. Was not our best idea in the video, but it was fun to do the underwater. Anytime you can get an underwater camera involved, it's worth it, in my opinion, because that was sweet footage. It was.

[Jake]

Yeah, I agree.

[Ryan]

I mean, it was. It was underwhelming footage.

[Tyler]

I think it was cool. I just like seeing stuff you're not supposed to see.

[Ryan]

It was just very okay footage. Let's be honest. Going to be way cooler.

[Tyler]

I liked it. I thought it was sweet.

[Jake]

It would have been cool had we had. If we had the camera facing straight out so you could see like 10, 15, 20ft in front of you.

[Tyler]

I just. I just feel like any instance where the human eye see something that it normally shouldn't or couldn't be able to see is a sweet situation.

[Ryan]

Is that why you watch so many colonoscopy videos on YouTube?

[Tyler]

Exactly, exactly. Why? Because, like, it's way. If you just spread the cheeks, you. You can't see in there.

[Ryan]

That's true.

[Tyler]

So.

[Jake]

No.

[Ryan]

Yeah. What do you do? Get your eyeball in there?

[Jared]

You can't.

[Tyler]

It's. You need a flashlight and a whole. It's. It's a lot.

[Jared]

It's all. It's a lot. Like cave diving videos.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Colonoscopy videos.

[Tyler]

Exactly. It's like some people would say they're the same. Both are caves.

[Ryan]

Both are cavities.

[Tyler]

Yes. Yep.

[Jake]

One's like a black one. Could be like a black hole in the Amazon jungle.

[Tyler]

Exactly, Exactly. Another one could be able to get through the bush. Could be. Could be.

[Jake]

It could be.

[Ryan]

Oh, my God. Are you sad, Jared, that you missed out on that video?

[Jared]

Yeah. The one beer drinking video we do I missed out on, which sucks.

[Ryan]

And you're like, at this current state, you're the number one beer drinking guy in the office.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

For a while now. So I. I'm a little bit bummed about it.

[Ryan]

That's all right. We'll have another beer drinking video that you'll be in at some point.

[Jared]

Oh, I'm excited.

[Tyler]

If you were to have been involved with this video, what would your trick have been to cool the beer down?

[Jared]

Probably a cooler. Ice and salt. I don't know what the comments.

[Tyler]

A lot of comments on that.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Huge discussion that didn't make it in the video was on the difference between sea salt and rock salt.

[Tyler]

Oh, yeah.

[Ryan]

And I was hell bent that rock salt was different than sea salt, which it is technically different. But Tyler seemed to think they do the same thing, essentially.

[Tyler]

So we looked at it. I looked it up, and the difference between sea salt and rock salt is not necessarily what it is chemically. It is how it's harvested. So the rock salt is just sea salt that is dried and deposited onto rocks and then is harvested that way. Sea salt is just seawater scooped up and dehydrated.

[Jared]

Huh.

[Ryan]

Didn't know that.

[Jared]

That's a fun fact.

[Tyler]

Yeah. So I do think you maybe are getting maybe some extra minerals in the rock salt from the rocks, but it didn't seem that way on the Internet.

[Jared]

It's very marginal.

[Jake]

How do they make him Himalayan sea salt pink?

[Tyler]

I think I. I think it's probably

[Jared]

already from the Himalayas.

[Ryan]

Himalayas.

[Jared]

Yeah. I don't know.

[Ryan]

It's got to be some sort of deposit of some sort, because I don't

[Jake]

think you're getting pink sea salt anywhere else except the Himalayas.

[Tyler]

It could just be food coloring.

[Ryan]

Yeah. I mean, it probably started as actually pink, and then they. They're like, oh, people will buy salt if it looks pink. Let's do that.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

The Kardashians diet pink. And then people are all over it.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

It looks healthier.

[Ryan]

Yes.

[Jared]

I think this Himalayan salt's, like, from the mountains.

[Tyler]

It is. It's pink because of trace minerals, primarily iron oxide.

[Ryan]

There you go. I.

[Jake]

Okay, that checks.

[Ryan]

So it's a marketing deal.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

But, yeah, I think it was. We had a lot of fun doing that fomo. The one thing that the comments said that we should have done that I would. Didn't even think about is that they said we should use liquid nitrogen. So that could have been you, Jared.

[Jared]

Could have been me.

[Ryan]

You could have been the liquid nitrogen guy. Could have went to liquid nitrogen store.

[Jared]

The LN LNN L&S.

[Jake]

So what, like, what do you use? Liquid. What's the difference between liquid nitrogen that would cool a beer down or liquid nitrogen that you'd spray on your lawn?

[Ryan]

Well, one is cold.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Nice. Okay.

[Jared]

It's like a cold tub, hot tub. You know?

[Jake]

If you guys don't know, that's fine.

[Tyler]

No, I don't.

[Ryan]

Well, that is the difference. One is extremely cold and one is at room temperature.

[Tyler]

I think. Because I think the one you spray on your lawn is just nitrogen that they put in a solution and then one of them is like, actually liquefied nitrogen.

[Jake]

Got it.

[Jared]

Right. It's like 1%.

[Ryan]

We don't know though.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Because, like, it's just minerals that's mixed into water essentially for your lawn.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Tyler]

That's my guess. I'm so That's a good guess.

[Jake]

Yeah, it's a good guess. I don't know if I can, like, I'll fully take that as truth, but it's a good guess.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I. I would. I. I'd say it was about 70% confidence.

[Jake]

Sure.

[Tyler]

That it's somewhat accurate.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Jared]

Diluted.

[Ryan]

Also, I think what's funny is Tyler. Tyler. Tyler prepped his little secret way to cool off beers for, like, for like 72 hours.

[Tyler]

It's not.

[Ryan]

He was working on this thing for damn near a full week.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

At least I worked on it legitimately, if you really want.

[Ryan]

Almost a month you've been working on this.

[Tyler]

If you want to see.

[Ryan]

Ryan just showed up and. And just shot from the hip. And Tyler had this whole thing planned out for. I want to say, like, gotta be almost like six to nine months.

[Tyler]

I didn't the video for at least that long. Yeah. Yep. I did not know.

[Ryan]

I remember a year ago July, a year ago, he was starting the planning process for it.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And it was. Needless to say, with that much prep work, it was very underwhelming.

[Tyler]

Hey, you could say that you got

[Ryan]

the tiniest little Wave maker fan. Did you think it was gonna be bigger?

[Tyler]

I did think it was going to be a little bit bigger, but I just.

[Ryan]

What is this? A fan for ants and essentially it

[Tyler]

is a fan for fish.

[Jake]

You should have just thrown a fucking trolling motor in there.

[Tyler]

Yeah, but then I would have had to cut my cooler. I needed a seal. And this was the best way to get the seal. I wanted my cooler to still be able to seal shut or.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Or.

[Jake]

I mean, like I said. I think I said in the video, what you could have done is just put it in the back of your pickup and just go drive a gravel road.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

A washboard gravel road. And it would. It would do the same as the fan.

[Tyler]

But my thought process on that is, like, I don't want to have to just go drive around and wait for my beer. I want to just be able to sit in a lawn chair and wait for my beer to cool. And I did beat the regular cooler with ice by a lot of degrees.

[Ryan]

You did.

[Jake]

That's because there's water in yours.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Which is. I needed water to create the movement. So essentially, I made an athletic cold tub for people that didn't. Didn't watch the video for beers.

[Ryan]

So you should go watch a video.

[Tyler]

A cooler with jets.

[Ryan]

I think what's funny is there's also a bunch of comments that, like, the mythbusters did this X amount of years ago. And I was like, I had no idea.

[Tyler]

None of us knew.

[Ryan]

None of us knew. I actually gotta go watch it now.

[Tyler]

I feel like that one's on Jake. He's watched a lot of mythbusters. He loves mythbusters.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's on Jake.

[Jared]

Put on Jake.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

But, yeah, no, we had no idea that the mythbuster did that already, by the way.

[Jared]

So they've done a lot, too, though.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Jesus Christ.

[Jared]

Yeah. Give us a break.

[Ryan]

Our Next. Our next YouTube video is how much force does it take to pull two phone books apart after you interlace all the pages? We just came up with that as an original idea.

[Tyler]

One of my favorite mythbusters episodes. We just recreate this. It's like, can somebody actually catch an arrow that shot at them?

[Ryan]

Yeah. After that is. Can. Can a ping pong blow up a human head if it's shot fast enough? They did that one time.

[Jake]

Can it.

[Ryan]

I don't know.

[Jake]

I don't.

[Ryan]

I didn't.

[Tyler]

I don't know.

[Jake]

As long as we. If we don't know the conclusion, then we're fine. I think we can keep going.

[Jared]

Yeah. Let's watch the front half.

[Ryan]

Yeah. We'll just watch the first 10 minutes of Mythbusters and then do the YouTube video and then compare them.

[Jake]

So with the cold beer show that they did. What.

[Ryan]

What?

[Jake]

We don't know. Were they trying to bust. Does anyone know?

[Tyler]

They were just trying to figure out the. I don't know.

[Ryan]

I don't know. I never.

[Tyler]

I Know what? One for theirs. If you guys are curious, do you

[Ryan]

want to know, was the myth busted?

[Tyler]

I don't know what the myth they were trying to disprove, but I do know what method they came up with.

[Ryan]

Cooled the beer the fastest was water, salt, and ice.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Jared's idea was the one that won for theirs.

[Jared]

Well, there we go.

[Jake]

That's why we got left here on the video.

[Tyler]

They did.

[Ryan]

He read all the comments.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Huh.

[Jared]

Another funny thing was Tyler assaulted Miles.

[Tyler]

I did throat chop Miles.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

You should have been messing with my project.

[Ryan]

I don't think I was.

[Tyler]

You were. We have it on camera.

[Jake]

What was he doing to mess with it again?

[Tyler]

He was trying to unplug my. My jets. You were in the back at the end of the extension cord lurking. Miles was right next to the machine lurking. So I was defending my project on both sides.

[Ryan]

I mean, like, also, though, Ryan, he had to have a extension cord.

[Jake]

Yeah, I know. Yeah. You guys, what if you don't have an extension cord in your back pocket? What if you don't have an aerosol fire extinguisher in my back pocket at all times?

[Tyler]

You did prove that.

[Jake]

Be funny if I just see.

[Jared]

Look,

[Tyler]

but what if your aerosol fire extinguisher is. Seal is broken, and it's been. Because it's been in your back pocket and your.

[Jake]

That's good. Well, then I know I'm gonna burn alive.

[Tyler]

That's true. You're in deep.

[Jake]

So. So that was a tough pill to swallow. I'll be honest. I. I was very hyped about that. I had super high confidence.

[Ryan]

He had gloves on, and he was so jacked.

[Jake]

I'm like, this thing's gonna be so cold, I'm not even gonna be able to touch it.

[Jared]

Laid an egg.

[Jake]

Yeah. Go see what happened.

[Ryan]

So, yeah, go check that out. You also can go check out what my secret one was. It's a good one.

[Jake]

It was really good.

[Ryan]

Did you watch the video, Jared?

[Jared]

Most of it.

[Ryan]

What part didn't you watch?

[Jared]

I've missed part of the middle.

[Ryan]

I think I missed taking a.

[Jake]

Or something.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I remember.

[Jake]

Got. Got busy.

[Ryan]

Yeah, me too. So, yeah, it was good. We got more YouTube videos coming, man. It's a grind figuring it out. We. I feel like we are getting the widest range of YouTube ideas getting thrown out. We are everything from stuff like what we just did with the beer video all the way to, like, product comparisons to doing, you know, like, challenges, and I think it's gonna be fun.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And honestly, that's where we're at with that. We're just like. We're just trying, seeing what happens, having a good time.

[Jared]

We might do a video of throwing against the wall and see if it sticks.

[Ryan]

We might literally try that.

[Tyler]

That would be a fun video.

[Ryan]

We might do a video where we're just throwing darts at a dartboard.

[Jake]

Depends on how dry the shit is too.

[Jared]

What is the best for walls?

[Ryan]

Yeah,

[Tyler]

yeah.

[Ryan]

Seeing what sticks. That's so funny. That would be so gross.

[Tyler]

It's just like, seeing how hard we have throw things to get it to stick. Like a bowling ball. We could get it to stick, but we have to do it through the drywall really hard, but not too hard that it goes all the way through the wall.

[Jake]

The series is called does it Stick?

[Tyler]

Yeah. So what's the video series about? I don't know. They just kind of throw shit at walls, see if it sticks.

[Jared]

We're trying pizza piles.

[Ryan]

Okay. What's really dumb, though, is, like, that would. People will watch. I would watch that.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

It's like the guys that have the big tower that just drop heavy items off of it and see how it smashes stuff. I love that our version is like. Is like the. The, like, white monster Kyle version of, like, what. What will stick to drywall? What will put a hole in the drywall?

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

We could do a whole food one. You know, if the spaghetti sticks to the wall, then it's ready to eat.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Jake]

Yep.

[Ryan]

Do you abide by that, Jared, being the chef that you are? If when you're cooking spaghetti, you take spaghetti, a strand of spaghetti. If you throw it against the wall and it sticks, that means that it's cooked thoroughly in the correct amount, sort of.

[Jared]

But you typically want to put olive oil on, like, the noodle. So I would say no.

[Ryan]

Yeah. But this is when it's still boiling.

[Jake]

Oh, this is coming straight out of the pot.

[Jared]

I mean, you could just really just eat it and see if that's.

[Tyler]

That's what I do.

[Jared]

You don't need to risk a wall.

[Jake]

I will say I. If I ever cook spaghetti noodles, every single time, I will throw it against. There's a cup cabinet right up to my top right of the stove, and I will throw it at that cabinet

[Ryan]

door to see if it sticks.

[Jake]

I, I. You. Not every time.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I throw it against the backsplash.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Yep.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jared]

I've never thought to do that. I might try that tonight.

[Jake]

Well, it's kind of fun. I mean, you just like, oh, no, I still got about five Minutes left to cook. It all depends on if you like al dente as well.

[Tyler]

Right.

[Jared]

I've also reached a new man milestone in my life.

[Ryan]

What is that, Jared?

[Jared]

I made ribs for the first time.

[Ryan]

Did you?

[Jared]

So I might get into meats.

[Tyler]

Did they turn out good?

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

What was your technique?

[Jared]

Oven.

[Ryan]

Low and slow.

[Jared]

Low and slow, 252 hours. Lots of butter, lots of honey. Lots of. Lots of tin foil.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jared]

I was surprised the amount of tinfoil I use.

[Jake]

Oh, you get that? You get it bunched up. You have to try meat sushi next.

[Jared]

Yeah. Meat sushi's.

[Jake]

Yep.

[Ryan]

So then you put some barbecue sauce on it after. What'd you put?

[Jared]

Some local barbecue. I don't even know which one it was.

[Ryan]

Well, I thought it may be sweet baby rays.

[Tyler]

You can't work that hard on ribs and then slather sweet baby rays.

[Jared]

I guess if Zuckerberg came over, I would definitely got sweet baby.

[Tyler]

True.

[Jared]

But yeah. So I might be addicted to smoke or ovening meats now.

[Ryan]

Bacon meats next. Okay, so you're in the experimental phase though, right?

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Try, like, throwing them on the grill. Getting, like, almost like searing the outside a little, and then put it in the oven. They'll fall right off the bone, like,

[Jared]

towards the end or to the start.

[Ryan]

So you start with it on the grill and then throw it in the oven.

[Jared]

There is liquid smoke, so that could maybe combat the grill if I don't want to use the grill too, which I don't know how they liquefy.

[Ryan]

How do they liquefy smoke? I have no idea.

[Jared]

That's a weird one. I can't understand.

[Ryan]

I don't know.

[Jared]

That's like nitrogen.

[Ryan]

That's our next YouTube video. Can we liquefy smoke? How long it would take us to figure that out? Without Google, I don't think we ever would.

[Jake]

So what is the liquid smoke used for?

[Jared]

So, like. Like, in my case, I was baking ribs in my oven. So if you want that smoky flavor.

[Jake]

Got it.

[Ryan]

You would put the liquid, base it

[Jared]

with something like that. A few drops.

[Tyler]

I think we've used liquid smoke to attract bears. Put in a spray nozzle, and you spray it around on the trees and leaves and stuff.

[Ryan]

They can smell the menstruation.

[Jake]

Why can't you just smoke? I didn't, like, blow it on the ribs.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I could have.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Some of that.

[Ryan]

A cake fudge. Blown some O rings on it from my tropical maid. Y. Yeah. You're doing Hawaiian ribs.

[Tyler]

Jared's got a mango breeze.

[Ryan]

Pineapple.

[Tyler]

What do they call them Z bars? What are the new vapes are.

[Jake]

Oh, yeah.

[Jared]

You could taste a little bit of the blueberry.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cheerio'd into the oven.

[Jared]

Would be sexy to do an O ring, like through the rack of ribs.

[Ryan]

Yeah, Just around it. Yeah, yeah.

[Jake]

Have it, like, have it hanging on a piece of string or something.

[Ryan]

Jared's laying on the ground underneath the ribs. All the juices are dripping on his face, and he's blowing O rings around it.

[Jake]

Honey, honey, honey. Get the charger, get the charger. Battery's dying.

[Tyler]

My backup jewel.

[Jared]

Usbc. Usb. That's an idea. Blueberry ribs.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Another switch up too. My. My mom does sauerkraut ribs, and we. We eat them without any barbecue sauce. Those are very good.

[Jared]

Okay. My dad's for a recipe.

[Ryan]

I also feel like the only measure people have on if ribs are really good or not is if they're fall off the bone. So my. My question for you, Jared, is where your ribs fall off the bone?

[Jared]

Absolutely not.

[Ryan]

Okay, well, then we need to adjust, though.

[Jared]

I think it was fine, but I think I would have liked them a little more tender, so I think another half hour hour in the oven probably would help.

[Tyler]

Okay. Maybe more tinfoil, Cook them longer, you're saying maybe?

[Jared]

Yeah, I think that's probably the move.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Jared]

I don't know. I'm. I'm still in the. I'm still in my rookie year of ribs, so.

[Jake]

So what made you want to go and buy a rack of ribs?

[Jared]

I saw a YouTube short and I'm like, I could do that.

[Tyler]

I want to do that.

[Ryan]

You're influenced.

[Jared]

I was influenced, Yep. Memphis style.

[Ryan]

Maybe we should do a YouTube video about making ribs. Good work for you.

[Jared]

I have an oven that we can use.

[Ryan]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Hell yeah.

[Jake]

That's step one.

[Tyler]

Now we just need ribs.

[Jake]

Now we just need ribs and some liquid smoke or a couple jewel pots. You imagine all four of us getting underneath, grease dripping on our face, blowing Jewel. Jewel pods.

[Jared]

And one of the jewel pods has marijuana in it. We don't know it. Yeah, it's like THC roulette, almost rib roulette.

[Ryan]

Imagine putting like, THC oil on meat.

[Jared]

You get really, really, really messed up.

[Ryan]

It would just be so strange.

[Tyler]

I don't think it would taste very good.

[Ryan]

I don't think so either. Nothing like liquid smoke.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

So do you have a grill at your house?

[Jared]

I do.

[Ryan]

It's just a propane generic one.

[Jared]

Yeah. It's probably quarter size of this table. It's pretty small.

[Ryan]

Yeah, just crank that Thing up high, seared the outside of those ribs, throw it in the oven low and slow. Then they'll be. Fall off the phone.

[Jared]

I also didn't want to go outside to do the grilling.

[Ryan]

It was hot.

[Jared]

It's really, really hot. So.

[Jake]

But you would just. You put them in there and leave because.

[Jared]

But then you gotta go in and out, in and out,

[Ryan]

the cleanup. That is very true.

[Tyler]

There's plates everywhere.

[Jake]

That is true.

[Ryan]

This is a big. This is a big weekend for the boys. I got in a cold tub with another man. Jared did ribs for the first time in the oven, and Tyler used the grill this weekend.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I had to grill. We were at the.

[Ryan]

Please tell the story of how you betrayed us.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I. We were at the lake and the power went out in the campground. This is the only way to feed my family, was to grill brats. So we. All we had were brats and, like, cheese.

[Jake]

Why didn't you do it over a fire? Yeah, have them do their own.

[Tyler]

Because it was already 5:30 and my kids were hungry. So it was like, oh, either this or I gotta drive home, make dinner, bring it back to the lake.

[Ryan]

But also, kudos to Becca for not ratting you out. I mean, I just ratted you out, but you ratted yourself out, but she didn't post a photo of you.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Grilling over the weekend.

[Tyler]

Hell yeah.

[Jared]

Look at this guy.

[Tyler]

Shouts to you.

[Ryan]

I have to have a conversation with Anne.

[Jared]

Was it a propane grill?

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jared]

That's good. It's quick.

[Ryan]

So. Okay, I want you to, like, set your ego aside. I want you to set your. Set everything aside for me. Was there an ounce of you? Just a millimeter of you? Just like, just one hair follicle of you that was like one ball hair that was pretty slick.

[Tyler]

No, Tyler, I'm not kidding. I was honest.

[Ryan]

There's no way.

[Tyler]

I genuinely was. Like, the brats that I just bought. The venison brats I just boil at home are better than these.

[Ryan]

That is just such a lie.

[Tyler]

I'm noticing broths. It's good.

[Jake]

How do you. How can you compare? Because. Have you ever had grilled venison brats since you don't grow?

[Tyler]

Yeah, I had the grilled venison broads yesterday.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Ryan]

Oh, so venison broth. Yeah, but how.

[Tyler]

Circle Saturday or whatever it was.

[Ryan]

Turn the dial, you go close the lid. Then once it gets warm enough, you throw them on there. And then you just. You just wait and then they're done.

[Tyler]

Yeah, but then there's like the hot spot situation. Then I gotta play. Brought shuffle make to make sure that they all are cooked because they're like. Like the grill you have at the lake. There was hot spots all over the thing. Two of them are charred because they're clearly on the hot spot. Even though I. I got down at eye level on the dials to make sure they were all the same level of heat so that they would all cook evenly and they just still didn't. So it's like, God. And then I'm moving up to the top rink. Like, these are done, but I can't take them off yet because the rest is in here.

[Ryan]

So what would you have been doing other than that?

[Jake]

It's a good question.

[Tyler]

What do you mean?

[Ryan]

You know, because, like, I'm spending time

[Tyler]

with my kids probably.

[Jake]

I mean, you were. You're with them all weekend, though.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I like them 20.

[Jake]

Well, I'm not saying you don't, but I'm saying like 20 minutes at a grill versus spending another 20 minutes with them, that. That's not going to make or break whether they leave home at 16 or not.

[Ryan]

You are notoriously talking about how it's nice to catch a few extra minutes of just me time. Yeah, you got that.

[Tyler]

I've determined that grilling is not the me time I crave. I just. It's nice to reaffirm my previous steak. I'm still not a grill guy. I've. I've changed opinions on things before. This is not one of them. I did not enjoy myself.

[Jared]

Not yet.

[Tyler]

It was also 95 degrees standing over this thing too.

[Jake]

I. I'll join the conversation real quick. I. I grilled 50 dogs in that 95 degree heat yesterday and you hated it.

[Tyler]

It had to have sucked. I know you didn't hate it because of the grilling. You had to hate it because I hated it.

[Jake]

Yeah, I. Yeah, yeah, that's.

[Jared]

Yeah, they're hot dogs. Not like a Michael Vick situation.

[Ryan]

Yeah, hot dogs.

[Tyler]

I grilled 50 dogs this weekend. The strays just kept showing up. Dude,

[Jake]

something must have smelled good to him.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Jake]

They just kept.

[Tyler]

They're smelling the other strays cooking. I gotta get me some of that.

[Jake]

Threw it against the house. I'm like, oh, that's done.

[Tyler]

Did it stick?

[Jake]

Oh, yeah.

[Ryan]

You know how much that would suck to have to grill up 50 dogs?

[Jake]

Oh, it took forever. Yeah, cool dogs.

[Ryan]

You gotta skin them all.

[Tyler]

You got the burn pile for it to do it all at once.

[Ryan]

How much? How much? Like, like, like oil and to like. And seasoning you'd have to do for 50 dogs.

[Jared]

And there's more than one way to skin a dog.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

So then you try it all different ways to skin a dog.

[Tyler]

That should be our next YouTube video. What's the best way? We're just trying.

[Ryan]

Seeing what sticks we're throwing against the wall. Seeing what sticks.

[Jared]

Don't be mad at us.

[Ryan]

Don't be mad at us. That one might just stay in the hopper. That one might not make it out.

[Tyler]

Put it in the safe for indefinitely.

[Jared]

So do you charge all the hot dogs? Like, do you char them or are they just like medium cooked?

[Jake]

I get. I. If one side has a grill mark on it, I'm fine.

[Jared]

Okay. So it went pretty quick.

[Jake]

Yeah. And I'm flipping them obviously too. But when you're cooking that many, you can't. You like, you can't make sure that they're all.

[Ryan]

How do you think Nathan feels exactly? You only had to. You only had to cook 50.

[Jake]

Well, Nathan's probably cooking his in a

[Ryan]

press that you wouldn't. You wouldn't even have. You wouldn't even have sniffed chestnuts.

[Jake]

No, I just nuts. Every dog that I cooked on the grill, Joey Chestnut could eat all of

[Ryan]

them, plus 16 more in 10 minutes.

[Tyler]

Isn't that crazy? That's one guy. You had to feed a whole party.

[Jake]

I know that. That's. Actually. He would have more 16 dogs down in a shorter amount of time than I could have cooked those 16 dogs for sure. Damn.

[Jared]

For sure.

[Jake]

Because I'm going low and slow still, you know, on the dogs, it was so hot. My. My tongs were like burning my hands cuz I just set them on the grill next to me.

[Jared]

Was it the YB tongs?

[Jake]

It was.

[Jared]

Damn.

[Jake]

Yeah. Luckily we had the wood, but the wood was getting hot.

[Ryan]

Ryan, this is. This is a terrible advertising for our tongs. When we inevitably buy 10,000 more and try and sell them.

[Jake]

It doesn't matter because you use them in the 20 for 40 video and now I'm getting emails. Hey, I looked at the website. There's no tongs left on.

[Ryan]

Did we put a plug for the tongs in there?

[Tyler]

All you did was use them.

[Jake]

Yeah, so I had to sift through. I had to sift through five or six.

[Ryan]

And this is a great example. You gotta get these suckers while they're hot.

[Jake]

I know.

[Ryan]

They're not gonna be around.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

They're not gonna be around forever.

[Jake]

Yeah. I mean, well, they're. They're not. They're no longer around.

[Jared]

So 10,000 more.

[Ryan]

I have. I have two of my house and one at the lake. I have three. Three of them.

[Jared]

And. Yeah.

[Ryan]

So if we could do an auction for a game used pair of tongs.

[Jake]

If you're willing to part ways.

[Ryan]

If they're. If they're. That. If they're that much demand.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

I have a. You bet your grilling apron. That's not going to be getting any use. If you want to throw that in.

[Ryan]

Sure. Yeah. We do a whole grilling package auction.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

To pay for the next YouTube video.

[Jake]

Yep.

[Jared]

I kind of need tongs and an apron.

[Tyler]

Jared K, you got a bid.

[Ryan]

That's the other thing with these YouTube videos is some ideas we're starting to throw around are getting pretty expensive. Getting pretty expensive.

[Tyler]

I don't love it. What was the one the other day where I was like, I don't. We're not going to make our money back on this one, guys.

[Jared]

I don't want to spoil it.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. In case we do it. Save it.

[Ryan]

Yeah. You guys think you're going to convince me or what?

[Tyler]

No, I was the one against it as a. Guys, this is a good idea, but I don't think we're going to make our money back.

[Ryan]

I like the ideas where it helps me get my chores done. Yeah, we have some of those ideas.

[Tyler]

What if we did one where it's about taking the garbage out more? What about like if we found a way to get your dishes washed?

[Ryan]

Well, no. So I want to put it. I want to put a deck on the front of my cabin and I'm like, God, we could do a YouTube video. But then I'm like, one. The idea will end up being like, can we build a deck using only TEU tools? So then I'm just gonna have a shittily built deck and I don't want that.

[Jake]

You don't want to fall through the deck?

[Tyler]

No.

[Ryan]

And I don't think I want to trust your guys. Craftsmanship on my deck. Maybe Ryan.

[Jake]

I was just gonna say don't throw me in that crew.

[Ryan]

Ryan's. I think I trust.

[Jared]

Jake's pretty good at building that.

[Ryan]

The only woodworker Tyler, I medium heavy trust. Jared, I don't trust you at all. I don't trust you at all. You could be the. Be the beverage guy.

[Jared]

I could do that.

[Jake]

I wouldn't trust Jake either if I was. Yeah, but you haven't seen it.

[Ryan]

It's true. I mean, he says he's rebuilt engines and all that other. And we've never Seen any of it?

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

He was like, oh, yeah. I Rebu the 25 horsepower Johnson motor on this john boat, and I'm like,

[Tyler]

AKA you brought it to somebody that fixed it. Yeah.

[Ryan]

You know, the idea to get re. You got it to start one time doesn't mean that it's rebuilt. You change out the spark plugs. Doesn't mean that it's rebuilt.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

You got it to turn over. It still didn't start, but it turned over. And you counted that as a rebuild?

[Ryan]

Yeah, I guess. He never said that he got it to start. He just said he rebuilt it.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

So you could have just, like, put new parts on it, and it's still not started.

[Tyler]

I don't know.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

I could be the vibes guy for the deck.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Make a funny joke. It would.

[Tyler]

That'll be important.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Giant. This is a giant.

[Ryan]

But then if we're gonna do the. If we're gonna do the deck, then we gotta redo the siding. So then it's like. It's just. You start pulling on a thread.

[Tyler]

When I was in high school, there was a summer where we. Me and some buddies put in docks for this old man. And then he's like, can I hire you guys every once in a while this summer to come out and do projects? And we're like, hell, yeah. And one of them was like, I need you guys to build me a gazebo. And we're like, are we gonna do that? We figured it out. I would love to see if that thing is still standing, because we did not do a very good job.

[Jake]

You should drive by it sometime.

[Tyler]

I should, but I'd have to, like, trespass because it's one of those lake lots where, like, houses up top. Then it's very steep down to the lake, and the gazebo is right on the lake.

[Jake]

So we're like, we'll take Jake's rebuilt

[Tyler]

25 horsepower and then tour it.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

This is, like. Because when I think of a gazebo, there's two types of gazebo. There's a gazebo that, like, my grandma had on her porch. That's like a screened in gazebo. But then there's also one, like, at parks that are, like, giant.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Tables under it.

[Tyler]

This is like an octagon where we basically just built a deck. And there's four by fours that go up into a pitched roof and open. Open sides. No screen sides. They just wanted, like, a shady spot to put a picnic table.

[Jake]

You're talking like. Like a grain, A small grain.

[Tyler]

Just like, that. But all out of size.

[Jake]

Cut out. Yeah.

[Jared]

Or gazebo.

[Ryan]

Yeah, but yeah, it's like with a grain bin.

[Tyler]

Three foot walls. Yeah, three foot walls.

[Ryan]

Like a grain bin but a gazebo.

[Jake]

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

[Tyler]

yeah.

[Ryan]

I think he. I think he enjoyed it a little bit.

[Tyler]

The grilling. No, I did enjoy the gazebo building.

[Ryan]

That was the grilling.

[Tyler]

I do like the noise when it lights. When the ignites.

[Jared]

Yeah. That means.

[Tyler]

I'll give you that.

[Ryan]

That's all we need.

[Tyler]

I'll give you that.

[Ryan]

Just a little bit.

[Tyler]

It's a sick sound. It is a six out when you're doing the. That's fun.

[Ryan]

See, for me, that's it. The sound I like the most is the sizzle when you put it on. That. That. That sound of just like. Oh my God.

[Jake]

That'll make your dick hard.

[Ryan]

Oh, yeah.

[Jared]

Things. I'll make your dick hard.

[Ryan]

Yeah. And then I gotta watch out. Make sure I'm not turning the knobs without my hands.

[Jake]

You gotta make.

[Jared]

Yeah. You gotta play with the nipples a little.

[Jake]

You hear the igniter going off.

[Ryan]

You're like, what the fuck is going on?

[Tyler]

Hey.

[Jake]

Hey. Who turned the propane off?

[Jared]

Tyler, how much were you thinking about us while you were grilling

[Tyler]

at the beginning? Quite a bit.

[Ryan]

Did you?

[Tyler]

And then halfway through I'm like, I. I really do hate this.

[Ryan]

I imagine like, they're like, ty, we

[Tyler]

don't have any power.

[Ryan]

Can you. Can you do the grill? I bet he's like. Like looked around. I was like.

[Tyler]

It was.

[Ryan]

Is there anyone here that's gonna rat

[Jared]

me out, talking to me?

[Tyler]

It was. It was my idea. I was like, well, we don't have any other options. I gotta grow.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

My wife just kind of chuckled at me.

[Ryan]

We find out that Tyler actually just cut the power to the whole campground so that he can have a real excuse.

[Jared]

The whole campground.

[Tyler]

She's like, hey, all you guys, I'm grilling today. Would you.

[Ryan]

To that point, you're that public about it that you have to be doing like that? Yeah.

[Jake]

Would you be interested?

[Ryan]

It's really weird. All of my kitchen appliances just went out today. All I have left is the grill. I guess I have to grill. I hate it, but I have to do it. And our car broke down. We can't even go out to eat.

[Jared]

So we slack.

[Jake]

We're stuck.

[Tyler]

We did throw around ordering food and then going to pick it up at the bar down the road.

[Ryan]

And what was the determining factor on that?

[Tyler]

That the brats were already basically defrosted.

[Jake]

So would you ever Be interested in. In cooking up all the dogs for next year's hot dog competition at Jared's lake place.

[Tyler]

I wouldn't be interested in that. I'd have a price. I'd do it.

[Jared]

We could advertise, too, on the grill.

[Tyler]

Tyler, if I fuck them up, it might make that competition a little more interesting. Yeah, just shitty dogs make the times a lot slower. Or raw.

[Ryan]

I know you don't grow very much, but it's really, really, really hard to up dogs.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

You couldn't char them.

[Tyler]

Too much is about the only thing. Right.

[Jake]

Some people like them that way, though. Just like marshmallows.

[Tyler]

I'm not a super charred guy.

[Jake]

You're not?

[Tyler]

No. I don't complain, though, because nine times, 99 times out of 100, I'm not the one cooking them. So it's like, thank you for the dog.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Why did you need that extra nine in there? Because you started nine times out of ten, you said no.

[Tyler]

No, because I was gonna say that that's too low. More. It's too low because out of every 10 times I eat hot dogs, there isn't one of them that I grilled.

[Jake]

Sure. Like 49 out of 50.

[Tyler]

That's probably closer.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

I would say out of the last 50 times that I've had a grilled hot dog or brat, 49 of them have been cooked by somebody else.

[Jared]

Okay, that's probably accurate.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

One a week.

[Ryan]

One a week.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Ryan]

All right. Should we take a break, get some segments? All right, guys. We all got our shady rays on. Tyler, so would it have changed your mind on grilling if you had had shady rays on?

[Tyler]

Honestly? Probably a little bit.

[Ryan]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Then I would have felt more like a vibe if I had my shady rays on while I was grilling.

[Ryan]

That was your problem, Tyler.

[Jared]

They always say, look good, grill good.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I've heard people say that. That could have been. That could have been the determining factor. So next time, if there ever is a next time.

[Ryan]

And you would have got. You would have got better eyeballs on all your meat, because you know me starts sizzling, it starts getting all. All moist and greasy. And there's just so much glare from the sun. I think if you'd had your polarized, shady rays on you, you could have just been having an unglared view at your meat.

[Tyler]

Don't they say that about polarized glasses? It's easier to see the hot spots on a grill if your glasses are polarized.

[Ryan]

That is an unconfirmed thing, but I imagine that's true.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I would imagine that too. So that would have saved me a lot of trouble.

[Ryan]

I know that if there would have been any glare, you wouldn't have been even worried about it.

[Tyler]

Not even a little.

[Ryan]

Ryan, imagine. Imagine cooking 50 dogs with those puppies on.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

You wouldn't even. You wouldn't have even known how much pain I was in at that point. That's the best thing. It just pain.

[Tyler]

Yeah. The best thing about the glasses Ryan has on it, they hide the tears.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jake]

100.

[Ryan]

That's why you got to go with the. The bigger, bigger lens models is to hide the tears. When you're. When it's 100 degrees out and you're cooking 50 dogs on the grill, that tears.

[Jared]

It sweat.

[Jake]

Yeah. That tears actually dry out by the time they get to the bottom of the lens. So.

[Ryan]

So, guys, if you got a big grilling weekend this weekend, and you want to reduce the glare on your meat, you got to go to shadyrays.com use code ybr for 50 off two or more polarized glasses. So then you and your buddy can stand over the grill and stare at your meat. Glare free.

[Jake]

Yeah. Stare at each other's meat.

[Ryan]

You and your buddy can just stand there and cry. And it wouldn't be weird at all.

[Jake]

And you wouldn't even know your buddy's crying.

[Ryan]

Your buddy's crying because you got the. The Desert Storm shady rays on. Like Ryan. Ryan's crying right now. You guys can't even tell.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

The best sunglasses for crying.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Honestly. Honestly. Honestly, though, I wear those on your drive home after a bad day.

[Jared]

Oh, yeah.

[Ryan]

Turn on the scientists and just cry away and no one will even know.

[Jake]

Yeah. Yeah. You pull up next to someone at the stoplight, they're not even gonna know you're crying.

[Jared]

Yeah. I don't wanna mess with that guy.

[Ryan]

No. And so if you guys just want to have a good cry or have an un, unglared view of your meat on the grill, go to shadyrays.com use code ybr for 50% off. More. 50% off two or more polarized glasses. I want to. I want to run some. By you guys doing these YouTube videos, I am starting to just really realize how expensive tools are. We got a lot of ideas with tools. And I want to buy all of the tools. I want to buy all the tools.

[Jake]

There are some sweet ones.

[Ryan]

I can throw my hand up and say, hey, I would love to buy all the tools that exist in the world. But they're expensive, right? They're expensive.

[Tyler]

Very.

[Ryan]

And so I think I figured out how to solve the problem. That power tools are too expensive.

[Jake]

Enlighten me.

[Ryan]

Stick with me here.

[Jake]

Okay?

[Ryan]

And. And I want this to be a group effort, but I'm going to lay it out right away first. So you and your buddies should pool all your money together and buy all of the tools and then have, like, a library checkout system for it.

[Tyler]

Hell, yeah.

[Jared]

Okay. Do we. Decimal system.

[Ryan]

So let's say. All right, let's say we're all like, you're gonna. It's not gonna go take very long for you to run up, like, $2,000 in tools, you know?

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

But imagine if everyone in our company, if we pooled our money together, two times six, that's $12,000 you can have. You could buy a lot of tools and a lot of equipment for $12,000.

[Tyler]

I really like the library checkout system, too, because then there's accountability. So, like, if we were just sharing tools amongst each other, and, like, Ryan takes the skill saw, and then you come in, you're like, where the hell is the skill saw? You could check the library records. Like, okay, Ryan has it. It should be checked back in by Friday. I'll do my project then.

[Ryan]

Correct?

[Jake]

Yeah. Otherwise we call the cops for theft.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Well, yeah. Or you get charged a late fee, and all the late fees just get reinvested into more tools for more checkout opportunities.

[Jake]

Because if you were like, hey, give me $2,000 right now, and I will give you access to $12,000 in tools. Who's not taking that deal?

[Tyler]

Honestly, like, once we get the initial library of tools stocked, we could start selling tool cards, like, library cards.

[Ryan]

That's true.

[Tyler]

Like, we do a subscription model, like, 40 bucks a month for random guys to come in and check it. Check a tool in and out.

[Jake]

That's what I was going to ask. Buddies that are not in on the library.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

And I think it is also important that there needs to be a neutral location for all these tools, because if Jared's like, hey, we'll put him at my place, he's gonna be not checking out, using it.

[Tyler]

Yeah, right.

[Ryan]

He's gonna be being like, oh, sorry, I'm not home. You can't get in there and get at him. And I don't have a garage code, so you double padlocked.

[Jared]

That's actually true. I don't have a grass code, but

[Ryan]

yeah, there we go. So, like, I think you got to, like, just rent a. Like, a storage unit. What is it? What's like a. Just a normal storage Unit cost a month. 100 bucks. 100 bucks a month. So you got divide that by six, not too much. And then you just, you have a neutral location and then it just falls right into renting them out to other people.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. And I think like every time we get a new member, obviously we get their card information on file. So if they do end up just stealing the piece of equipment for, we just charge them. We charge them for what it costs new. So we can go get a new

[Ryan]

120 markup and then we can buy a nicer version of it. So we're actually kind of hope that people are stealing the tools.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

It's actually like where we take something that would seem like a bad thing for us and we turn it into something that makes the whole process better.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

I also think we could do handyman services like once or twice a year with our tools and all of the money we get for that, we then just reinvest into more tools.

[Tyler]

This, I genuinely think this could be a legitimate business.

[Ryan]

Do you.

[Tyler]

I think there would be a market for something like this. I would do that because it's way. I would way rather go rent a planer in this situation for my 40 bucks a month or whatever. We decide to charge people then go to an actual rental place and rent one for 350 for the weekend.

[Jared]

Yeah, for sure.

[Tyler]

You know.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tyler]

I, I would do this to be very honest.

[Jared]

And then eventually the storage unit gets bigger. Then we can put like a TV and couch in there and you just gotta hang out.

[Tyler]

And maybe a bar.

[Jared]

A bar.

[Ryan]

I mean. Yeah, it's not a bad idea. Like for those that are, that are out there being like, well, this is just a tool rental store.

[Tyler]

It's not, it's way different. It's a club.

[Ryan]

It's way different than our tools.

[Tyler]

Yes.

[Ryan]

You know, and, and it's a subscription model. And you know, if you don't. If you're not using it every month, it starts to add up. But then you. Then it's also going to require you to do more projects.

[Jake]

I do like the handyman portion of it too, because then it kind of turns. We could do all the handyman work together as a group.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Then it turns into the handyman party bus. So that's how we loop that in with.

[Ryan]

Well, that's what we do is we. We also then start hosting events with these tools, you know.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

We then with the money that we're making on the subscription model, we then buy a party bus. We put Jared in a Suit.

[Jake]

Yep.

[Jared]

Yeah, sure. Yeah.

[Ryan]

Carhartt suit. He drives the bus around.

[Jake]

Yep.

[Ryan]

And we start selling like, oh, for, you know, a thousand bucks, you can have access to tools and the party bus for a day, and Jared will drive you around, and we'll even throw in a few cases of beer, sweeten the deal. And all of a sudden now we go from an initial investment of $2,000 to where this could probably be worth half a mil, to $2 million worth of tools that we have.

[Jared]

And we're kicking butt.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jake]

And we, you know, you could also franchise it out to other friend groups. So if you have acquaintances who have separate friend groups but you still kind of know them well. Yeah, they can start their own group.

[Ryan]

We sell the tool list. So it's like we have. All right, so if you have three buddies, here's a tool list of stuff that you're going to want to buy that will fit within $6,000, you know?

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

If you find 20 guys that I'll pitch in $2,000, that's 40 grand in tools.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

That's sick.

[Tyler]

That's very sick.

[Jared]

Endless.

[Ryan]

Now it's a lot of checking out in library stuff going, library cards getting flown around. But I mean, guys are doing that on their own, but they're just, they're. They're shouldering all of the expenses.

[Jake]

Well, yeah, you just need one stay at home wife to manage the checkout, check in, check out.

[Ryan]

Yeah, There you go. Sure.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

I mean, she's got nothing else to do now. She doesn't got to care for the kids or anything else.

[Jake]

Yeah, that's true. Well, eventually, when the kids get old enough, they're going to school. And

[Ryan]

that's true to Ryan. Yeah.

[Tyler]

I mean, we could automate the checkout system. Like, you get some sort of fob, you tap it, and it unlocks the tool off the thing. So then whoever's FOB tapped it, they know they have it.

[Jake]

So, you know, what if people with subscription.

[Ryan]

What if.

[Jake]

What if they bring a buddy who's not subscribed? What if they bring a buddy by just to kind of show them around?

[Ryan]

Yeah, I think we, maybe we have a referral system. That's how we. You get, you know, a free month of your subscription if you bring another guy, and then if they get three guys underneath them and then those three guys get three guys, we're gonna, we're at the top. We're gonna be looking pretty good.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Jake]

So you know what we could do too is we, we could take like, we could do like DNA tests of the. The grips of these tools afterwards to see if the guy who took it gave it to his buddies to use

[Tyler]

for letting him double dip. Yeah.

[Jake]

And then they're splitting the subscription cost because that. It's like the Netflix thing. You don't share your log. Yeah.

[Tyler]

We can't share one household.

[Jake]

Yeah, one household.

[Ryan]

If we're sharing DNA, that's bad news.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Jared]

All right, here's your 2:00 clock card. No, just. We need a DNA sale.

[Tyler]

Yep. Please roll your sleeve up. We'll need to take a blood drive.

[Ryan]

Apartment buildings require DNA samples of pets to know who's. And not picking their own stuff up.

[Jared]

Exactly. Why not humans?

[Jake]

The system's built out.

[Tyler]

Here's a turd.

[Jared]

And then cup.

[Ryan]

And then for 10. And then for an extra hundred dollars, we'll just give you your history. We'll just give you your family history and we can just parlay it into a 23andMe situation.

[Tyler]

We're also going to enter your DNA into CODIS and see if you're part of any cold cases.

[Jake]

That's true in this moment.

[Ryan]

And then we're now getting a government contract, you know, being like, oh, you're. We're gonna use you guys to beef up our database of DNA just in case there are any cold cases or future potential cases.

[Tyler]

You're welcome. FBI Trojan horse.

[Ryan]

So now, I mean, initially we thought this was maybe a 2 million dollar business. Might be a 200 million dollar business.

[Tyler]

100 billion well cover government contracts, only deal in the bills. So we're billions now.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

To a club powered by 23andMe.

[Ryan]

But just think how nice I'd be just like. Because like I go to a hardware store or a northern tool and I'm looking, walking around be like, I would. I want that. I don't really know what the use case I would use it for right now, but I want to use it will be nice to just be like, oh, today I realize that I need to use that. I'm just going to go over to the storage unit, scan my fob and I'm. And I got it.

[Tyler]

Yeah. It would also be a good way to too. If you. If you wanted to test tools before buying them. You're like, all right, I want to try.

[Ryan]

There's no more buying. Yeah, we don't need to buy tools anymore, Tyler.

[Tyler]

It's true. But as a general consumer, if maybe you're only in town for the weekend, if you're.

[Jake]

If you're on business or something.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. I need a Tool. I'll try this. Oh, I really like that skill saw. Then you go to Northern Tool the week later and go buy that one for yourself.

[Ryan]

Yeah, sure.

[Jared]

A sampler.

[Ryan]

So wait, you're saying like, oh, I'm in town for a conference. I'm staying at the Hilton Garden Inn. I've already been. And I've already been to Slick City, Sweet shots in Fargo.

[Jared]

What else can I do?

[Ryan]

What else can I do? Oh, I'll just build something in my hotel room.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Ron Swanson make wedding rings out of a sconce.

[Jake]

Yeah. I need a couple beers of space Aliens.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I already. I already got at. At Space Aliens. Won a bunch of tokens, came home with a stuffed alien.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

I couldn't get them.

[Ryan]

What else? I need a shelf to set this on.

[Jake]

Yeah, Yeah. I didn't win. I didn't win enough tickets to get a Milwaukee drill behind the counter.

[Tyler]

Why aren't they doing like drills and stuff at Dave and Buster's for prizes?

[Jake]

That's actually.

[Ryan]

That's Tyler. Tyler, what do you think we're doing with our $200 million? We're going to make it. We're going to. We're going to make Dave and Busters.

[Jared]

But.

[Ryan]

But with power tools.

[Tyler]

Bathe and dusters.

[Ryan]

Bathe and dusters. And all the prizes that you'll win are all power tools.

[Tyler]

I like it. And it's like we make all of the arcade games blue collar vibes. So it's like whack and osha instead of whack a mole.

[Ryan]

Yes.

[Jake]

Like jackhammer and concrete.

[Tyler]

Yeah. It's like just a guy popping up with a clipboard and you smack him with a mallet.

[Ryan]

Yeah, yeah. Instead of doing like race car, like racing NASCAR simulator deal, we'll just do like skid steers, Skid sears.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Ryan]

Like that.

[Tyler]

Yeah. There's a zipper merge game for road construction. It's like Frogger. Kind of people should.

[Jake]

Yeah, More people should play that game. Yeah, yeah.

[Ryan]

There's a claw machine with just white monster in it.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Ryan]

Stuff like that.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jared]

Okay, I'm open to it.

[Tyler]

Skee ball. You're just rolling tins of chew.

[Jake]

Yeah. It's like there's a porta Potty.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Jake]

You got to see how if you can last more than a minute in there,

[Jared]

that's reality.

[Jake]

Jared, what do you think the porta potties outside right now in 100 degree heat, what do you think they smell like?

[Jared]

Not good color.

[Jake]

Guys still got to use them.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Instead of that, Instead of that water squirt. Gun game. It's just a nail gun with the safety pin removed. So you're shooting nails at stow.

[Ryan]

That'd be actually fun. You know, like you got ax throwing and giant Jenga and all this stuff at bars. Give me. Give me a nail gun dart game.

[Tyler]

Hell yeah.

[Jared]

That would be sick. Be great. A lot of life.

[Tyler]

The beginning of Happy Gilmore.

[Jake]

Yep. Yeah. Using nail guns for not their intended purpose is the best. I got a bunch of woods by my house too, so I could I just I that baby.

[Ryan]

So what do you guys think of the idea?

[Tyler]

I'm in.

[Jake]

It's great.

[Tyler]

Where do I sign?

[Jake]

You still have my spade shovel too. And if we had. If we had this library system, he'd have been charged.

[Tyler]

It had been his by now. It had been charged, bought it, and

[Ryan]

we would have gotten a better, newer shovel.

[Jake]

Exactly. Yeah.

[Ryan]

And I would have just had a shovel at my house and all the time.

[Jake]

Yep.

[Jared]

I think that's base shovel is yours though, because you've had it for long enough.

[Ryan]

Well, it's kind of the company. We've used it for props at this point, Ryan, so it's kind of. Is kind of mine. Well, I. I don't even know if it actually was yours originally. I think it might have been mine that you took from me, then used it, and then tried to gaslight me into thinking that it's mine.

[Jake]

I actually, I might be able to find the text conversation because I think you asked for a shovel at the office.

[Ryan]

I don't think. I don't think.

[Jake]

But I want to say I. I

[Ryan]

didn't you bring it in initially for the time capsule.

[Tyler]

Where are we at on that, Jared?

[Ryan]

Good thing.

[Tyler]

Good thing.

[Ryan]

Good thing we didn't do the time capsule.

[Tyler]

Imagine just shooting back up in 20 years.

[Jake]

Like, hey, would have been out there

[Ryan]

for like two years.

[Tyler]

Could we do some digging?

[Ryan]

There's a. There's a cooler about six feet down.

[Jared]

We have the GPS coordinates.

[Jake]

Nothing illegal in it.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

You're like, no. So if you call 411 for us.

[Ryan]

Yeah. And I think, well, that's also the thing too, is like, you find yourself. You find yourself using a tool more than like. Like, you're like, oh, I'm checking this out every weekend. You can just elect to buy it from that. And then we'll just replace it with a new one.

[Tyler]

I dig that.

[Ryan]

And maybe you get it for a little bit cheaper, you know?

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Well, we got the subscription model going, so we have revenue coming in. So we can replace that.

[Tyler]

Yeah, we treat the discount kind of like. Like benefits at a job, after six months, you get a discount on tools.

[Jake]

Well, and if it, like, let's say you return everything on time, then that might. It maybe extends the amount of time that you get to rent it out for. Maybe instead of, you know, big people who just sign up, you can rent it for three days.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

We have a reward system.

[Tyler]

Yeah. How responsible you are.

[Ryan]

The more on time you are bringing the tools back, the more you get to.

[Jake]

More perks.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

You get to keep it for longer. You know, maybe if you've been loyal, you. You've been doing your subscription for three years, you get one, you get. You get. You get to actually, like, just have a tool under a certain amount of value.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

You know, like loyalty program. Maybe you just get to take home one battery, you know?

[Tyler]

Yeah. Huh.

[Ryan]

There's all sorts of stuff we could do with it.

[Jared]

A lot of incentives. This seems like a safe space for ideas. What if you get your mail? There are two.

[Ryan]

I don't hate it.

[Jared]

I don't hate it because sometimes you want an address, you don't want to put your home address. So maybe to the tool club.

[Tyler]

P.O. boxes there.

[Ryan]

Do you bet your tool club.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

YBTC.

[Jared]

YBTC.

[Ryan]

YBTC sounds sick.

[Jake]

A lot of EEE's in there.

[Ryan]

YBTC

[Jared]

could be an idea.

[Ryan]

Yeah. I mean, we'll definitely think about it. We'll have to run it through the board.

[Jared]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Board stretcher. We could have those.

[Ryan]

We could have a board stretcher.

[Tyler]

That's just when we let a couple extra people onto the board.

[Jared]

Yeah. Well, plenty of blinker fluid there too.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Yeah. You put winter air. We have an air compressor that just has winter air for your tires. Make sure you put that in.

[Jake]

Eliminates having to put on winter tires.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Saves you about 15, 1600 bucks, I'm sure.

[Ryan]

We could also have like a. We could also have like a sister store or. Yeah, probably a sister store that's for women. And it's like. Because, like, my wife doesn't need a huge hammer to, like, tack hammer, you know, a nail into the wall to hang a picture. She just wants like a little guy. So you just basically just have of the less threatening version of every tool. And then they're all pink. They're all pink.

[Jake]

Like a little. Yeah, a little sister, little brother store could be good.

[Jared]

I think for women. It could be like a makeup store too.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jared]

I mean, I don't know.

[Ryan]

It'll kind of be like a euphoric

[Jared]

sephora

[Ryan]

but, you know, Euphoria is kind of. There's a show like that, right. So that'd be kind of trademark. So we could like Euphorias. It would be, like, sick and euphoric. We could go like Sephora, maybe just like. Just Sephora.

[Tyler]

It'd be like. It'd be like the Ulta Experience for them.

[Ryan]

Are you saying Ultra or Ulta?

[Tyler]

I mean, I like Millennial.

[Ryan]

Women do like it when we drop letters out of stuff. So instead of being Ultra, it just could be Ulta.

[Jake]

Yeah, the Ulta.

[Ryan]

That was like a happy little accident.

[Tyler]

Whoopsies.

[Ryan]

Yeah, that's good.

[Tyler]

That's good.

[Ryan]

And that is all the makeup stores.

[Jared]

I know.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

I was gonna make a joke about Kate Spade, but I think that's purses.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Kate is dead.

[Tyler]

I think so.

[Jake]

RP Kate Spade shovel.

[Tyler]

Never getting that back.

[Ryan]

We could do. We could do. We could do a collab with Kate Spade on our spade shovels for women. And it would have her logo on them.

[Jake]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tyler]

Take it.

[Jake]

And I mean, we could.

[Ryan]

You would. You would dig with it.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. That's what I mean.

[Jake]

With the Spade shovel.

[Jared]

Maybe like a Louis Vuitton pack out

[Tyler]

all of a sudden, like, Gucci back.

[Ryan]

Our male side of this whole thing didn't work out, but now we're just making. We're just doing collabs with the most expensive designer brands in the world on tools. How did we get here?

[Jared]

Well, they say that how Victoria's Secret started was by a man. So we're kind of on the same path.

[Ryan]

Yeah, we could call ourselves Victoria's not so Secret.

[Tyler]

Victor's secret was not working. Why do these men not want to buy my lingerie?

[Jake]

Yeah. Lingerie rental store. If you only wear it once every once in a blue moon, we could call it Blue Moon.

[Jared]

Blue Moons.

[Ryan]

That's so gross. I guess, like, I think the only thing that would be real gross if you're renting out lingerie is the bottoms. So you could, like. I feel like you could rent out bras.

[Tyler]

I mean, it's still not ideal, you

[Ryan]

know, just commercial washing machines. You would have to check the box if you're nursing or not, because then it gets stranger fluids.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

You know what I mean? But, like, a car heart lingerie set might be the move. It's all made out of, like, canvas.

[Jake]

Like a Carhartt Bibs lingerie.

[Ryan]

Actually, the more you wear it in, the better it is.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Jared]

I'll make a guy cream as car hearts.

[Ryan]

Seeing that cream, her car hearts make A guy cream her car hearts.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

How is no like, tick tock shop done that?

[Jake]

Carhartt lingerie.

[Ryan]

Yeah, just like, cut up a pair of Carhartt pants and make lingerie out of it.

[Tyler]

I bet there's some Etsy thing.

[Ryan]

A lot of chafing canvas bra could be the move.

[Tyler]

There's a shop for everything on Etsy.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

So regardless, I think we had a plethora of good ideas, but let's all just pool our money together and get a storage unit. Start there.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Jake]

Yeah, we got. We got to start somewhere.

[Ryan]

And let's start with $12,000.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Jared]

Check it on my.

[Ryan]

Plus, you know how fun it would be to just like, pick out all the stuff that you want to buy with that.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

You know, in like, in like, action movies, when they open the. Open their closet up and it's just like line with guns.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

You would open the shop door up and that's how it.

[Tyler]

That would be so sweet.

[Jake]

The walls would be lined with tools.

[Tyler]

Yep.

[Ryan]

Awesome.

[Jake]

That'd be sick.

[Tyler]

Investors, possibly.

[Ryan]

You all right? Is that it, Jared?

[Jared]

You got a fun fact, Tyler, or no?

[Tyler]

Yes, I do have a fun fact. I'll be quick. I know Miles got a bounce. But despite being one of the largest freshwater lakes on the planet, Lake Erie is actually remarkably shallow at an average depth of only 62ft.

[Jared]

Wow.

[Jake]

Interesting.

[Tyler]

Wow. Yeah. So. And I was like. I thought that was weird. It's like, average depth.

[Jake]

That's kind of eerie.

[Tyler]

Basically. Basically, they. To determine average depth, they basically take water volume divided by acreage and to. To create the average depth. Because I thought it'd be kind of lame if they're, like, measuring every single spot to create average depth. So that's how they find average depth. It has one hole on the lake that's 210ft, but it's the average depths. Very shallow.

[Ryan]

What do you think's down there?

[Jared]

Loch Ness monster?

[Tyler]

I don't know. For reference, the next closest great lake is Lake Huron with an average depth of 195ft Feet. So that just shows you how much. How shallow Erie is.

[Ryan]

And people forget about Huron, you know, Michigan, Superior. Eerie. They get all the. They get all the. The headlines.

[Jake]

Yeah. But here on ybr, we don't forget about, like, Huron.

[Jared]

No, it's a great lake.

[Tyler]

Nope. Just like it's one of them.

[Ryan]

Just like we put. Just like we put Crazy Horse on the map. Let's. Huron. Ybr, let's put Huron on the map. It. I mean, technically, it is already on the map.

[Jake]

But let's put it on the map here on ybr.

[Ryan]

Ryan, I want you to tell the folks exactly where Lake Huron is.

[Jake]

I couldn't tell you.

[Ryan]

This is part of the problem.

[Jared]

You're the problem. Right.

[Jake]

Unless I looked at a map.

[Tyler]

This is upper Midwest. Shares the border with Canada.

[Jake]

Upper Midwest? Yeah. Around Michigan, Minnesota, Somewhere in North America. North Iowa.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

North of Iowa. And it's not east of Minnesota.

[Ryan]

It's north Iowa.

[Jake]

I mean, it might be northeast, but it's. It's. There's north in there. It's definitely not south of Iowa.

[Jared]

East of Michigan.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

It's barely north.

[Jake]

Yeah. Still north of Iowa a little bit.

[Jared]

Not really.

[Tyler]

Yeah. Damn.

[Jared]

Sort of

[Tyler]

the majority of it's north.

[Jake]

Yeah. Thank you, Tyler.

[Jared]

There's a chipoigan. I didn't know that.

[Jake]

What? Chipoigan.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Huh.

[Jared]

Gaylord.

[Ryan]

There's a Sheboygan in Michigan too. Oh, yeah, that was Cheboygan. Cheboygan is kind of cool. All right.

[Tyler]

Cool. There's that.

[Jared]

It.

[Ryan]

There's a London. Anyway, sorry. I look at maps for hours.

[Jared]

We should have a map episode where you just look at a map and.

[Tyler]

Oh, cool.

[Ryan]

No, well, like, sweet. And look how much national forest is in Michigan. Isn't that shocking? It's a lot of it.

[Jared]

Kalamazoo.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Saginaw.

[Ryan]

Also, I thought Grand Rapids was closer to the. The border. I thought it was closer to the lake further inland than I thought.

[Tyler]

Oh, it's by the rapids.

[Ryan]

All right, guys, thanks for tuning in to another app episode of the you bet your radio podcast. Have a great week. We'll see you in the next one.

[Tyler]

Ran in. We're done.

[Jared]

Oh, you betcha.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Jack. Shotgun. So I've got some space on my deck. I've been bouncing around the idea of either a hot tub or an above ground pool off the edge of the deck. Would like to hear your thoughts on what you would do also. Miles, My family and I have been loving the long form videos on YouTube. My three kids, wife, and myself have been throwing them on our TV at dinner.

[Ryan]

Let's go.

[Tyler]

Oh yeah.

[Ryan]

Love to hear that.

[Tyler]

Sick dinner vids.

[Ryan]

Thank you for watching YouTube videos. Keep it. Keep it. We're keeping it rolling. You keep it rolling. First thought that goes to my head is if you get a hot tub, you can use it all year round in the Midwest. You can't use an above ground pool in the winter.

[Tyler]

No.

[Ryan]

You could try to stock it. Maybe go ice fishing.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jake]

This is just my personal opinion. I couldn't be. I couldn't be less of a fan of above ground.

[Tyler]

I'm 100 with you.

[Jake]

I think they make things look trashy.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

And they're just so much maintenance too. I feel like they break down.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Tyler]

Really, really easy.

[Jake]

And then you're gonna get sick of trimming around it. So they're gonna have weeds growing around it. And then that's the trap where the trashiness comes in.

[Tyler]

And a lot of them are tarped so like you can't trim them or you'll slice your damn pool open. Yep. Yeah, I'm out on above ground pools.

[Jared]

If you can build like a deck around an above ground quill, that's a little.

[Tyler]

It definitely helps it that it's next to the deck. Then you'd also need to put skirting around the pool, in my opinion.

[Jake]

Yeah. I think a hot tub's the way to go.

[Tyler]

I agree.

[Jake]

And when you like, if by chance you get sick of either of them, the hot tub is going to be way easier to get rid of.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Yeah. I don't, I don't think a lot of people are like, wow, above ground pools really hold their value.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

I'm so glad I bought this.

[Jake]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

It really is an appreciating asset. I don't know anyone who's bought a used above ground pool, do you?

[Jake]

No.

[Ryan]

Like, I've never even heard. I never even thought about that being an option.

[Tyler]

Let's see if there's any on marketplace. Maybe we'll get one.

[Jake]

Yeah. It's one thing I've never searched for.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Because then you can throw, but I

[Ryan]

mean, if you got young kids, it.

[Jake]

I don't know.

[Ryan]

Do whatever you want with your money.

[Jake]

Well, you're also very anti. Like, like. Yeah. I even think the hot tub is good for when the kids are getting older and having friends over.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Jared]

Steal your booze, go in the hot tub.

[Jake]

You and your wife.

[Ryan]

Girlfriends.

[Jake]

Yeah, yeah. There you go.

[Tyler]

There's a bunch of them on marketplace for sale.

[Jared]

Right.

[Ryan]

None of them are selling $A lot of them.

[Tyler]

Most of them are around the 5 to 700 range.

[Ryan]

Let me see, like what kind of above ground pools are we talking?

[Tyler]

Okay, well here's one that's more expensive. Here's another above ground pool. That one is steel sided.

[Jake]

Do they say you have to come pick up.

[Tyler]

Oh, here's a hundred.

[Jared]

$1 water not included.

[Tyler]

Yeah, yeah. Only used one summer in good condition, taken down and stored during winter.

[Jake]

Yeah, yeah. Then you got to figure out somewhere to store it.

[Ryan]

That'd be a nightmare.

[Jake]

Jesus Christ.

[Ryan]

If you get a hot tub, though, your electrical bill is going to go way up.

[Tyler]

Just kind of. This is an ad, but like, the ones that are kind of half in ground, I'm. I'm way more likely to get one of those than I am the fully above ground.

[Ryan]

But, yeah, if there's like a. If there's like a Mossberg to my head, I'm. I'm taking a hot tub every day of the week for sure.

[Jake]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jared]

That'd be a weird scenario. Gun to your head for that sort of thing.

[Ryan]

Okay, I'll take the hot tub.

[Jake]

Get a saltwater tub, too.

[Ryan]

Which one do you want?

[Tyler]

Yeah, hot tub, I guess. Don't shoot me.

[Jared]

Yellow.

[Ryan]

Relax, relax. Mr. Olsen from Olsen Pools and Spas.

[Tyler]

I'm gonna get one. You don't need the gun.

[Jake]

That's why I'm here. I. I said. I said here's my budget. What can I get for it? Are you.

[Ryan]

I'm gonna pay for it.

[Jake]

Are you still anti.

[Ryan]

Also, isn't Olsen Pools and Spas a local business that sells pools and spas?

[Jared]

I think so, yes. They wouldn't do that. They wouldn't do that.

[Ryan]

They would do that. What were you saying?

[Jake]

Are you still anti sitting in hot tub with friends? Like, at our age?

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Oh, yeah.

[Tyler]

I think we should do a podcast.

[Ryan]

I mean, like, unless we're at, like,

[Jake]

a resort, can we do a podcast

[Ryan]

from, like, if Jared is like, hey, I got a new hot tub, I'd love for you and Anne and some other people to come over and sit with.

[Jared]

That'd be weird.

[Ryan]

Yeah, I like, no, I don't want to do that.

[Tyler]

I'm sprinting.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Tyler]

Okay.

[Jake]

Okay.

[Ryan]

What.

[Jake]

What if he was like, hey, do you now want to come over for supper, like, and bring your swimsuits?

[Ryan]

Ain't that worse?

[Jared]

That worse kind of worse.

[Ryan]

I'd much rather have it be like, we're coming over for the hot tub, and then if some food is there, great.

[Jake]

All right.

[Ryan]

But to say we're going to. We're going to eat dinner and then. But just also bring your.

[Jared]

Oh, by the way.

[Ryan]

Just.

[Tyler]

I feel like that's a gateway to swinging.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it's very swinger behavior. Anytime you're taking clothes off at your buddy's house is not. You're in a bad spot. Like, unless it's a jacket or, like, a canvas vest or taking anything else off or. Yeah,

[Tyler]

everyone knows I get completely naked to. Yeah, I keep my socks on, though.

[Ryan]

So, like. But just any activity that requires you to take your Clothes off at your buddy's house. You should not be in that scenario. At 30 some years old, you think about every scenario where you'd have to take off clothes. It's just not good. You know, if you're playing we fit and you get too hot, you gotta pop the top off. Why are you playing we fit with your buddies at 30 years old?

[Tyler]

All right, all right.

[Jake]

Gun to your head. Which one are you more likely to do? Bring your suit. Like, let's say Jared's like, hey, bring your suit over for the above ground pool or for the hot tub.

[Ryan]

Above ground pool is much better than a high.

[Jake]

It's less intimate.

[Tyler]

It.

[Jared]

And it's bigger and it's less sweaty.

[Ryan]

I think the weird thing. I think the weird thing about sitting in the hot tub with other adults is you're just all sitting there sweating.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Tight spot.

[Jake]

It's a primer.

[Tyler]

And then there's the guy that. The sweaty guy that wants to stay by the hot tub, so he just sits on the ledge. But then you're just eye level with his dick.

[Jake]

Yeah, yeah, that's true. It's more of a primer for what's to come later in the night.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I think.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

So just keep that in mind.

[Jared]

Every swinger I know has a hot

[Tyler]

tub of how many you know?

[Jared]

I guess I don't know many.

[Ryan]

Yeah, this gotta be true. I guess that's gotta be a correlation.

[Jake]

Do you guys know any swingers? Or like, even through the graph, I know.

[Jared]

I know of swingers. I don't know any swingers.

[Tyler]

I have.

[Ryan]

I've heard rumors.

[Tyler]

Yeah, I was gonna say I have some people that I think might be swingers, but I don't know for sure.

[Jake]

Yeah, I think I've only heard of one rumor, but that. That's. That's all my knowledge goes to.

[Tyler]

And I'm way too afraid to ask because then I don't want them to think that I'm a swinger.

[Ryan]

Oh, dude, you. How crazy of a move that is to ask someone if they're a swinger? That's. And not being a swing. But like, even if you're a swinger, asking if someone's swinger, that makes sense. But if you're just. You just want to know.

[Tyler]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

The risk to reward on that is so low.

[Tyler]

Very low.

[Jared]

Yeah.

[Jake]

Okay, so how do you find. How do. What's the proper way to find out?

[Tyler]

Pineapples.

[Ryan]

You don't. That's kind of how swinging works.

[Jared]

If you know, you know.

[Tyler]

But Ryan was biggest gossip. He needs to know.

[Ryan]

How do people know where the fight club is?

[Jake]

Well, no, like, I want to know

[Jared]

where to buy drugs.

[Ryan]

Yeah, it's the same thing.

[Jake]

It's a. It's a crazy community.

[Ryan]

And that's really what it is. It's a community.

[Tyler]

We share everything.

[Jake]

Quite literally. Fluids, guys.
