Dial The Wild
Episode 100
What happens when you force the most reluctant person in the room to be the center of attention? That's exactly what we discover in this milestone 100th episode celebration, where host Travis finds himself in the unusual position of answering questions instead of asking them.
Travis's siblings—Jes and Seth—masterminded this special takeover episode, compiling an extensive questionnaire designed to reveal the man behind the microphone. From childhood memories and family secrets to philosophical musings and zombie apocalypse strategies, no topic is off-limits as they probe for answers that listeners have never heard before. The rapid-fire format quickly establishes a playful yet surprisingly insightful rhythm, with family dynamics on full display as stories unfold about childhood antics, teenage rebellions, and the occasional sibling betrayal.
Between questions about favorite foods (pizza) and childhood fears (snakes), something more meaningful emerges—a genuine philosophy about connection and curiosity that has sustained the podcast through 100 episodes. As Travis explains, the show was never about becoming another hunting podcast, sports show, or celebrity interview program. Instead, it became a platform for exploring whatever makes people passionate, whatever "stirs them up inside." From discussions about sobriety journeys and snowboarding adventures to music deep-dives and outdoor experiences, the podcast has remained uncommitted to any single niche while staying deeply committed to authentic conversation.
Ready to hear what makes our host tick? Dive into this special celebration episode and discover why, after 100 conversations about other people's passions, this podcast continues to bring people together through genuine connection rather than polished performance. And maybe, just maybe, you'll finally learn whether Travis would rather fight a chimpanzee or wear short shorts to an 80s party.

Speaker 4:Anxiety is. Welcome to the jungle.
Speaker 3:Well, let me open another beer. You got a questionnaire Explain here. Jess, you have my explain, mic drop.
Speaker 1:This is a very cheap, barely plastic microphone that when you speak into it makes really no sense whatsoever. It's so locked on, exciting, but if you drop it.

Speaker 4:A few more handfuls.
Speaker 3:Ty's been on two or three, I think. Yeah, yeah, I think three, but the first one was dereliction one, and that's where we got fires. We were talking about music. You're just like, oh yeah, man, it's fires, but you know that should be made into a chip name.
Speaker 1:That's really spicy.
Speaker 2:It should be I wish I had a soundboard.

Speaker 3:The mental seller. Fake bass player extraordinaire.
Speaker 1:It's a good time, All right what are we? Doing so we thought on behalf of you know, Travis, and honoring Travis and all the hard work that he's done for all of these 100 episodes, because there's nothing he hates more than being admired. So here we go. I would like to start with the first question, travis, what is your biggest secret? I'm just kidding, that's not, we won't, we'll just the biggest secret next got it. Okay, don't look at me it involves you in a shovel.
Speaker 1:What is it? Never mind what's your favorite color is probably a better one I like black yeah okay so is that one or is that two?
Speaker 4:questions it doesn't matter it's a question, that's the first question.
Speaker 1:I think that was just three questions.
Speaker 3:It's a two-part, one question. That was fairly harmless, so yeah, we're good on that one.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 3:I like the absence of color. Let's see. Let's see.
Speaker 4:What is your?
Speaker 3:favorite food? Usually a pizza. Oh, that's solid. Usually, a pizza is solid steak. What do you like on your pizza? Usually Pizza, solid steak. What do you like on your pizza? Usually meat combination. Definitely Sausage, bacon, ham. You're a meat lover, yeah, gotcha, and I like pepperonis, but I keep them off because of the heartburn, because I'm 38.
Speaker 1:It's true, I feel the same way. I'm a loser. I don't like the pepperonis.
Speaker 4:So yes, Question number two, three.
Speaker 3:Three. So question number two three, three, three, three. Maybe who's your favorite sibling? I'll wait me. No, no, I had something better than that and I let it go just kidding.
Speaker 2:Maybe don't answer, it depends on your turn all right playing mom's rules depends what is your favorite?
Speaker 3:abstention and why, favorite book you assume I can read children's books included I don't know. Uh, junior high was all about the harry potter books, of course, which you know. Junior high was all about the harry potter books, of course, which you know. Um, I like documentaries, so I like history type stuff too, which is cool. Um, I honestly can't tell you the last book I read. It's been so long since I actually sat down.
Speaker 1:I could tell you what the last book you read was yeah the grumpy monkey yes, it was.
Speaker 3:I highly recommend somebody go read that book the grumpy monkey. Yes this is the best book ever really is.
Speaker 1:Really is um. Next question I think four, six, ty. I think you're the one that keeps track of the numbers, right?
Speaker 4:We'll go with six.
Speaker 1:You're asking Ty to keep track of numbers. He has to do something. He's here right.
Speaker 3:He's standing up right, he's doing great.
Speaker 1:He said his laugh is broken, so it's not like we can use it there. It is so better. Did this podcast turn out to be what you expected so far?
Speaker 3:I had no idea what to expect. So I, yes, no, maybe I don't combination of the three. I, like we said, we started by saying we wanted to cover a little bit of everything and do a little bit of everything. Do sports, do music, do any kind of weird politics or I don't know what? So many different Amber and her snowboarding, and Zach with his sobriety and stuff like that. We keep it lighthearted and fun but then can focus on the really important things. And I, yes, I. I guess I never really set the bar. I just kind of waited for the show to take shape and it never did. We just still covered everything. That's awesome. I never wanted to be another hunting podcast or another archery podcast or another Joe Rogan. I just wanted to do shit I wanted to do.
Speaker 1:We like it.
Speaker 4:You know, what is your favorite quote?
Speaker 3:There's one over there. I'm pretty sure my last words will be well, that shit didn't work. And there's a good chance that the three of you will be in that room more likely.
Speaker 1:I have a feeling dad will be saying the same thing at the same time, if he's in the room too probably that's a good one.
Speaker 3:We'll go by that one.
Speaker 1:If I think of another one, I'll spit it at you um, this one, I'm going to throw a plot twist at you, because you said you wanted surprises, because I was going to warn you about these things, and now I'm not going to warn you about them because they're here right now, right, um? I called mom and dad before this and read them all of these questions and they have their own opinions of what they think you would say.
Speaker 4:Oh, they answered your questions.
Speaker 3:So can I answer it? Then you tell me their answer yeah, unless I want to interrupt you.
Speaker 1:Ah, let's go.
Speaker 3:Ready. Okay, you ready, let's go.
Speaker 1:If reincarnation is real and you had to choose between a bear or a big eagle, which would you choose? I'm a bear.
Speaker 3:Hands down a bear. I can take long naps. I'm always warm. You're a big, cuddly bear. The idea of flying, though, is really Can I?
Speaker 1:be a bear with wings no.
Speaker 2:That's one or the other A winged bear.
Speaker 1:Make that solid choice, because you're're gonna take one of your parents off. Let's see that.
Speaker 3:Hey, I don't like this at all you said let's go five seconds before you know, let's go with my first instinct. I'm gonna stay a bear, I'm gonna be blue, I'm gonna scratch my back on trees and shit.
Speaker 1:Is that the the only reason? Why would your dad think that you would want to be a bear?
Speaker 3:To be the Cubs mascot.
Speaker 1:Or maybe to shit in the woods.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and find a rabbit yes, yep.
Speaker 1:That's what your dad thinks. You made your mom mad. She thinks you'd be a big eagle. She thinks you'd make a great big eagle.
Speaker 3:I would probably make a great eagle. Yep, you'd be up there. I mean top five. Maybe you know I can't uh, going on the dollar bill.
Speaker 1:This guy.
Speaker 4:I did not call my parents, our parents.
Speaker 3:That makes you the favorite sibling. I'm glad we got that one out. I figured that one out didn't.
Speaker 1:I.
Speaker 4:I did not do that, oh shit. So we're going to do a little back and forth with Jess on that one. So what is the?
Speaker 3:skill you wish you had. I wish I could speak other languages, that's a fair one. Yeah, he's like he probably wishes he could play the bass knocked out my next question no, I'm just kidding. I don't know. I think it'd be cool to talk in multiple languages. I don't know, I think it'd also be cool to like do anything I don't know, anything that I can't. Didn't that kind of what intrigues?
Speaker 3:you is like yeah, the stuff you wish you could do speaking of van wish I could have a decent podcast van or station wagon station wagon oh, mom said a van Definitely down by the river. I mean that's a good answer. But yeah, we got to go back to the old shagging wagon.

Speaker 1:Your germs Seth.
Speaker 4:I've got a lot of questions. What is the most? What's happened? They're coming.

Speaker 1:Does anybody have any opinions?
Speaker 4:I have no. What is the most unusual thing you've ever eaten?
Speaker 3:The most unusual thing I've ever eaten. Oh, that's a good one. Oh shit, I've probably eaten some really interesting things with my time in the military, but they didn't tell me what it was, so I could just assume that it was great d me you had to think. Mystery is this what am I?

Speaker 3:I was. I don't know. I guess I was thinking lyrically, I wasn't thinking like a vibe.
Speaker 1:Did we answer your foreign food question? I think we just jumped in.
Speaker 3:I think I accidentally ate cow's bladder once in Israel, because I ordered a steak and it came out with this meat and it was really flat.
Speaker 1:Did it hurt later.
Speaker 3:No, it just. It was weird. I thought it was my steak. So then I ate this whole plate of bladder and then they brought out my steak and I didn't even know what it was. I was telling the story just like I told you guys. My dad laughed at me. He said I'm pretty sure you just ate cow's bladder when you were in Israel. I didn't even know that was a thing, guys. My dad laughed at me. He said I'm pretty sure you just ate cow's bladder when you were in Israel.

Speaker 1:You sure, I'm not as good as people with big toes, have you seen?
Speaker 4:anybody walking. You don't need to balance to survive.
Speaker 3:I feel like there's no right answer to these questions.
Speaker 4:That's why we're asking them to you, I'm sure you can still ride a bike without a big toe. That's a good point.

Speaker 4:It's an obvious answer, in my opinion.
Speaker 1:Quilts. What do you think? Seth.

Speaker 3:I think it'd be fun to be alive through the 50s and 60s.
Speaker 4:Like the Industrial Revolution.
Speaker 3:Yeah, kind of watch it kick off, Maybe I don't know, find some oil somewhere. Go find an almanac. Just become rich. Start making sports bets.

Speaker 1:You're the big brother. Yeah, kids, you're the big brother.
Speaker 4:Yeah, what is the best advice you've ever received um?
Speaker 3:there is a God and I am not best advice. You probably listen to a podcast, like when I was doing service work, like pest control work. I was listening to podcasts all the time, like it's all. I did. Listen to music, listen to podcasts and I'd listen to working trance watching oh no buddy you have great talking about you uh, I would listen to cleared hot with andy stump.
Speaker 3:I'd listen to working class bow hunters, I'd listen to I don't know several different shows for different purposes.
Speaker 3:And uh, one thing that andy stump put out on um cleared hot, that was very helpful for me was just like if you look at the big picture as a whole and you look at all the things you have to accomplish and you have all the things you need to get done, if you're looking at that whole picture like it's going to freak you out. But if you take a, just take a small part of that and knock that out and then take the next small part. If you look in the micro and get through your day, like I just have to make it to lunch, I just have to make it to dinner, I just have to make it like if you start mike not like micromanaging, I guess it can be called the next moment set objectives, but like realistic objectives through any project, because if you look at the whole project, you're just going to want to curl up in a quilt and lay in your bed on a rainy day and not move and listen to Bing Crosby.
Speaker 4:I mean, that's not a bad day?
Speaker 3:No, but you can't stay there, you know.
Speaker 1:Do you think dolphins dream about what it would be like to be human?
Speaker 3:Now what in the hell?
Speaker 1:So you don't think that?
Speaker 3:there was. Uh, actually made me think of a joke your wife thinks that old mcdonald had a dolphin enough fun eieio and on that farm that dolphin went saw that the other day and it drove me nuts anyways, uh, dolphins think about us non-stop, because they're, if I was to guess, you know, since mermaids aren't real I'm sorry, jess, but mermaids aren't real, but dolphins are and uh, and all they want to be is part of our world. Just to spend one day in the sand.
Speaker 1:Carly, your wife thinks the opposite. She's like dolphins haven't made. They do not care about us at all. Their lives are so much better than ours.
Speaker 3:I think that they really wish they could be part of our world.
Speaker 4:They're like damn. I want to go to work and drive my truck.
Speaker 3:Or they don't reprimand their daughters out where they walk and they run play all day.
Speaker 1:I actually had a question about that, about about how many of those it took for you to lose your mind.
Speaker 3:A mermaid.
Speaker 1:Yeah, how many of the. Little Mermaid videos. It took for you to lose your mind.
Speaker 3:Here we are.
Speaker 1:Enough it seems Enough. Will you ever tell our parents the truth about that time that you snuck the soda in the middle of the night and then heard mom coming upstairs, and so you ran into my room and you hid it under my bed, and I'm the one that got the spanking from it when we were like six and eight. I was just wondering if you were ever going to say that to my parents and like tell them the truth about that, ever yeah.
Speaker 3:I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 4:I didn't think so. I have no idea, never hold.
Speaker 1:I'll tell you what I'll tell you what for every time that she complains, next question, next question. And we don't have enough time for that one, sorry.
Speaker 3:Every time I got my ass whip there's and you know mom might have said that in the notes also, but we're not going to talk about that.
Speaker 1:And I interrupted her also and said this podcast is not about me, Mom, this podcast is about Travis.
Speaker 3:Where's her volume knob? No, it's that one, and Jess is on pause. Go ahead.
Speaker 4:Seth All right, so what is your?
Speaker 3:biggest fear. My biggest fear Snakes Hands down. Hate snakes, not clowns. My biggest fear Snakes Hands down.
Speaker 1:Hate snakes, not clowns. My sister's questions.
Speaker 3:Clowns. You wipe off their makeup and they're just an idiot wearing makeup. What if they're like some sick?
Speaker 4:cancer guy. His face just looks pale. What is wrong with you? He doesn't have makeup.
Speaker 3:You're talking about a pantomime with a terminal illness, but he's a clown. Next question but that is that seth's microphone there.
Speaker 1:Talk, seth oh, yes, yeah thanks.
Speaker 3:Now you're muted. For a while I didn't think that that question could be topped with a dumber question I think we should get the soundboard.
Speaker 1:We should have the soundboard if we have a show, that's a terrible idea I know, because I don't know what any of the buttons do and I want to touch all of them.
Speaker 3:Excuse me.
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 3:All right.
Speaker 1:This is a big, big opinions from mom and dad. With these, we had a huge talk about this. What is the name of your favorite childhood stuffed animal?
Speaker 3:Ted.
Speaker 1:Incorrect, it is Just kidding. Dad said Cubby and Mom said either the Bugs Bunny or Bear.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it was Bear or Cubby, for sure.
Speaker 4:Told you you were wrong, okay what is the most spontaneous thing you've ever done?
Speaker 3:appropriate wait, can't tell that one. Uh, no, can't tell that one either.
Speaker 1:Um started a podcast yeah, fair if you want a trip to take your parents and your sister and carly and uh kylie and probably a little brother, and if ty wakes up in time maybe he can fit into the trunk in the whole world. Where would you I?
Speaker 4:didn't hear any kids take me I mean us two-part answer.
Speaker 3:You're all getting in the car and going somewhere not together.
Speaker 1:We're all gonna meet once we get find out where we're going.
Speaker 3:But you're all going yeah, I'm gonna stay here I'll have a coke.
Speaker 4:Go ahead and go ahead and drop that mic.
Speaker 1:There he is.
Speaker 3:There he is uh, if I could take everybody to ireland I would.
Speaker 1:That's what mom and dad both said.
Speaker 3:He's taking me to ireland, yeah, we're going, we're going to ireland, but uh, yeah, if you guys are all getting in a car and going somewhere and I can just, you big jerk, stay at home in my underwear, not worry about a one of you for a freaking week.
Speaker 4:So you could have any animal as a pet. What? What would it be?
Speaker 3:Komodo dragon.
Speaker 4:Ooh, that doesn't sound safe at all.
Speaker 3:You have to remove the venomous vial, but other than that.
Speaker 1:This is a two-part.
Speaker 3:I'd have a buffalo actually.
Speaker 1:This is either two questions or a two-part one question. I'm really not sure how it works. Anyway, zombie apocalypse.
Speaker 3:Oh, let's go. First part mobile or stationary you have to fortify and then, once you need supplies, you're gonna have to be you got a home base oh yeah, you got to establish home base you got to fortify, you got to you know, and then once you get that, then you try and sneak out, get a vehicle, get, get it in weld some shit to it Make sure you have plenty of money so you can board the windows up.
Speaker 4:You only leave when you have to right.
Speaker 1:Gorilla glue as long as I've got water you know, but you think about it.
Speaker 3:If there's zombie apocalypse and the world's going down, the shitter like, how much longer is any certain area going to still have power? Right? So you'll have to go solar so like well, or you just keep going to places to have power until you find all of them, and during that time second part okay, during that time, what is your weapon of choice?
Speaker 1:Reagan what do you assume is going to kill a zombie? What is your first assumption?
Speaker 3:That's probably a better one, probably a semi-automatic shotgun of some sort, fair, because I'm guessing there's going to be some close quarters combat.
Speaker 1:You're pretty great with a bo staff, but we don't know what's going to kill this thing.
Speaker 3:You need some distance.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you need some distance, you know just reach out.
Speaker 3:That'd be another one for Eric. What do we use in the zombie apocalypse?
Speaker 1:weird my podcast is my online people are nicer than yours well, mine are talking about hookers, they're doing just fine
Speaker 4:yeah, if you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Speaker 3:oh man, I am the worst at this, because I eat something three times in a week and I'm sick of it for two. You know I mean those weeks where you're so busy, you just get pizza, like two or three nights, and then, like I can't do pizza for two weeks yeah, this is, this is but this is like not if you have to eat if it's something that I could just um hmm, tricky.
Speaker 3:Well, it's like a question between do you want to eat like your favorite food forever or do you want to like get this dish every day? That you could do different things with you. Know how do I got to answer this pizza two part? I mean with a pizza. Technically you could do different things with you. Know how do I got to answer this Pizza To Bart? I mean with a pizza, technically you could do different things with a pizza.
Speaker 4:You could do protein-heavy pizza.
Speaker 3:You could Veggie-heavy pizza If you get sick of regular pizza you could go to like Chicken, bacon, ranch or Parmesan.
Speaker 1:Don't make us have a whole other episode with Carly on this.
Speaker 2:She'll tell you how to fix. Fix everything with a tomato.
Speaker 3:Well, that's why I was thinking maybe, like a mexican fajita, some flour mexican, I could take the different parts of a fajita and I can make like breakfast burrito, flour and butter.
Speaker 1:You make life happen. Now a little sugar.
Speaker 4:I mean you can use dessert pizzas too pizza everywhere.
Speaker 3:So yeah, I mean pizza's a solid answer. I don't know if that's what I could eat forever, but I do love me some pizza. I mean, look at me, I love pizza.
Speaker 1:This is a two question. I have to ask two questions in a row. First question when eating cereal, big spoon or a little spoon?
Speaker 3:Little spoon.
Speaker 1:When snuggling your wife, big spoon or a little spoon.
Speaker 3:Little spoon.
Speaker 4:When snuggling your wife, big spoon or a little spoon, little spoon, solid answer.
Speaker 2:I can't breathe if I'm big spoon.
Speaker 1:Her hair's in my face. I can't.
Speaker 3:I hate spoonie.
Speaker 4:My arm's half asleep under me.
Speaker 1:She's all that is woman. Love her she starts snoring.
Speaker 3:I can't get my arm.
Speaker 1:You need to hear me roar. She's woman. Hear her roar I'm not judging, I'm just saying it happened, non-specific what's your favorite dessert?
Speaker 3:uh oh speaking of carly's food like a really, really hot cobbler with the vanilla ice cream on top. That's so good, yeah, like a like a cherry or an apple cobbler or peach, even like really hot, like like what they have at ponderosa when we were kids, and you just go over, scrape it out of the thing. But I just go to the ice cream machine and dump like a gallon of ice cream on top of it.
Speaker 1:This question hurts. So you remember those moments in life when mom and dad lie to us for a really long time and then we finally ask the question and then they laugh, and so then you know the answer is like Like they really weren't older than dirt and 21 exactly like that. This is one of those ready let's tell one on jessica here. So no, it's not about me this time.
Speaker 3:It's so convinced mom and dad told her for years that dad was older than dirt and mom was 21 and she was like eight at the time
Speaker 3:we're in the middle of like farm cake or something and she's sitting in the cart and all of a sudden she's like and some mom meets somebody in the store and just talks to them and they're having a conversation it was target however long damn you target. I remember it like it was yesterday and she's talking to this lady, so he's like I, I'm blah blah, so how old are you again? And she says, like you know, I don't know.
Speaker 1:29 listen, mom and I have a really great relationship. Now things are different. She's apologized, jessica.
Speaker 3:It's bald, she bald in the middle of the store because it took a long time to get over that she just found out that mom was not 21.
Speaker 1:That my mother wasn't a liar yeah. My dad never interjected once. Not once Shook his head, walked out of the room saying something mean, it's funny, we'd be at the park and people would walk through and be like who's your parents?
Speaker 3:How?
Speaker 4:old, are they?
Speaker 3:Yeah, we don't know my dad's older than dirt Mom's 21.
Speaker 1:I believe that shit.
Speaker 3:That's not. That's not. I believed it. That's not true. I'm over it Anyway, it sounds like it.
Speaker 1:Anyway, I'm going to talk to my therapist later. I'll be fine. Anyway, how?
Speaker 2:Tell him. I said hi, you ready for this one?
Speaker 1:This is going to hurt a little bit. How does it make you feel that you no longer get presents on my birthday? And did you also know that that never happened on seth's birthday?
Speaker 3:first of all, let me answer the first part of this question. Who says that I'm not still getting presents on your are you giving him presents on my birthday?
Speaker 1:still, I swear to you I think I was, I think I witnessed the last one actually and I just talked to them an hour before this podcast they had all that window of time to tell me that truth.
Speaker 3:Cool, I didn't say I did. Can you be a little offended?
Speaker 1:by the second part then, so we can both be a little equal in this. This is crap Anyway.
Speaker 3:I thought it was a little. I thought, did you?
Speaker 1:realize that that just like light bulb dawned me today like wow, we never got gifts on seth's birthday.
Speaker 3:We were. We were teenagers when he was born. That doesn't matter, no, but think about it, you're still getting gifts on my birthday and you're like oh, he's a teenager, you're almost 40 that's not confirmed. Yeah, look at me in my eyes. Look at me in my eyes. I got yes me in my eyes. I got something in my eyes we confirmed Next question.
Speaker 3:We were teenagers when Seth was born. We were teenagers when Seth was born, so on his birthday it was more like no, you can't go hang out with your girlfriend, you have your brother's birthday, it was just like God damn it. You just get a lot of cake, yeah, but I'm not gonna eat it all. I'm sorry to chase women and I'm stuck on my brother's three-year-old birthday party like what's up, pal, how you doing squirt.
Speaker 1:So no, I didn't want a present on that day, mom and dad didn't have anything to say on that question. No opinion, no comment and also, where are you? I think for the second half of this seth, and I should revert to these questions because these are directly from your mom and dad.
Speaker 3:We gotta stick to the script now.
Speaker 1:These next questions are directly from your parents. Am I first Start? If you can understand what I've seen here Mom's trying to deny it.
Speaker 3:Mom's trying to deny it.

Well, there was a little porch there, there was okay, but before it was like a patio, it was like a glass room. They've got it covered up now and yeah but it was what.
Speaker 3:The glass room was. Across the front is what became the party patio. So there was actually a room there, and then at the end there was a door where you could go out, but of course there's no stairway or nothing there anymore, it just it was just a door. On the second story well, mom told me to go clean my room and I didn't like cleaning my room, so I jumped out of the second story door to avoid cleaning my room and went to help the guy next door rake leaves. And then I got in trouble for raking leaves, so you didn't want to do your own chores but I was helping the elderly and my mom still smacked me what are you doing?

Speaker 3:we are really freaking excited for him.
Speaker 1:We are really freaking excited for him. Well that was a good episode. Travis has been an athlete since he was fifth grade. All through high school and state qualifying, went through college and continued to play sports, went into the military, stayed in the military for six, seven years, did honor guard. Um what else travis has been an archer was the number one archer in illinois one year travis has deployed to egypt's travis has timber fest of the things I've accomplished in my life.
Speaker 1:I did survive throughout his whole life I was looking at the posters over there and I was like timber, an active father of two girls, an active husband to one woman only throughout his life yeah, we, we try to keep it.
Speaker 3:It was his high school sweetheart, which is even cooler.
Speaker 1:He has been a loyal brother, he's been a great friend. He's been all over America for his passions. More states I've been and Travis wants to use his podcast to advertise everybody else and we thought that maybe that it would be awesome to highlight him, because travis doesn't do that for himself and he doesn't ever.
Speaker 1:He doesn't ever get it enough, but he's very accomplished and he wants. He wants the people he cares the most about to succeed more than anything, and that's what makes this podcast great, that's what makes Travis great and that's why we all love him and are here today. Ty and I were just talking about that before we got started, and that's what mom and dad wanted to make sure was first and foremost.
Speaker 3:My top two listeners.
Speaker 1:We were gonna ask you what you had the most pride in but we honestly, as your younger siblings, have the most pride in you and um, we're really, we're really excited for all the accomplishments that you've made throughout this 70 years of your life 40 years 38., 39 years of your life, and we can't wait for the next 100 episodes.

Speaker 1:cool this guy is can we stop already but no like.
Speaker 4:Do you think this episode will reach within the top 10 of all of your other episodes?
Speaker 3:um, I don't know um in your heart, oh in my opinion sure, yeah, oh yeah, I love you know well, yeah a hundred percent. Um, I didn't think you'd get to 100. There's been times I've been. We definitely didn't get 100 questions.
Speaker 1:Oh, yes, we did. We had 20 written down, but we didn't Ask that many. Oh, we did, because we asked all of mine and I have 100 questions. I never thought that I would get to 100 episodes.
Speaker 3:I never knew what the show would ever Take shape or if anybody'd give a shit, or um, flirted with the idea of shutting it down a couple times, but uh, then you always get that sideways. Hey, man, you're gonna do anything. I was like I guess you know someone's interested in doing something obviously I'm gonna be like, oh well, we gotta do.
Speaker 3:You know, okay, talk to caleb the other night. He's like, oh yeah, I do more shows. I'm like, okay, I guess you know, and there's just a lot of people with a lot of cool stories out there, and that's that's what this show is all about is like dial the wild. Whatever makes you, whatever stirs you up inside. That's what we wanted to dial in on it, cause you'll might find other people that have similar interest, or that same kind of thing gets them crazy too.
