That's cool hey me, can't go wrong with that. I guess that kind of leaves us into what we're gonna talk about.

Speaker 4

I did that on purpose. Good job.

Speaker 5

Well, Kenny.

Speaker 4

You just got done. You worked a a movie here recently, didn't you? Yes, cotton mouth up and do we mouse. Yeah.

Speaker 5

Is that a scary movie?

Speaker 4

audition for it didn't get it.

Speaker 6

Western.

Speaker 5

Like a snake.

Speaker 7

Yes.

Speaker 5

I was thinking scary cotton man, I don't know.

Speaker 4

Like a new version of Candyman. He's just stoned.

Speaker 7

I did just join a horror movie and I started scouting it.

Speaker 5

What is scouting me?

Speaker 7

Oh boy, here we go, I'm not so what I do on the production side is locations management and location scouting. The scouting part is fun. You get to drive around and find all the neat locations like film it. Productions wants to shoot at, and then you get to negotiate with the property owners and hopefully you come to an agreement. You get to film there.

Speaker 5

So do you, do they get paid. Sometimes, I got a spooky house. She does, her house is weird and I'm poor.

Speaker 4

Seems that way like give me 25 bucks.

Speaker 6

Yeah, I would 25 dollars and a sixer, of course, that yeah amazing.

Speaker 7

This one's got a unique twist. I don't I can't really give it away or anything, but it's got a kind of a unique approach to it and kind of a somewhat of a Religious type lean to it, with the demon that's in it.

Speaker 5

So nice, like what we're gonna see tomorrow.

Speaker 6

Yeah, we're gonna go see exorcist tomorrow, casey's gonna have time. No, I'm not. I'm so excited. No, the new one remake.

Speaker 5

Yeah but the previous do look pretty good, I'll agree, though remakes usually are not Um hey and. I liked the first exorcist, which is weird because you don't like scary movie.

Speaker 6

I do not like scary movies, but I love. I do love Halloween loves Halloween, I love spooky things.

Speaker 5

Yeah, moody murder, murder, pods death, which scares, me a little bit.

Speaker 6

It is a white girl, things like.

Speaker 4

I don't know what to tell you.

Speaker 5

We are basic.

Speaker 4

It likes the exorcist like and poltergeist.

Speaker 6

I don't like and all things, even king.

Speaker 7

Two movies I saw as a kid. That was my first introduction yeah.

Speaker 5

Poltergeist, or poltergeist and exorcist see, I watched the original exorcist the other day.

Speaker 4

Yeah, get the mood. Yeah, oh yeah, did it get you?

Speaker 6

See, that's what you should worry about, if that's what gets me in the mood that that's your.

Speaker 4

Let's put this on before we take our clothes off.

Speaker 6

Michael Myers is my aphrodisiac.

Speaker 4

So what kind of areas are you scouting? What are you looking for so? So here's something. So when people are scouting for a production, what kind of things are I looking for? Now, I know they're, they're probably looking for areas that fit fit the film that's gonna be shot. But, for your instance, on a horror movie, what kind of area you kind of looking for?

Speaker 7

so Generally you get the script a few ahead of time and you read it a couple of times and make a lot of notes on and you break down the scenes. What do they look like? What you know is a day, night, inside, outside parking lot, you know highway, whatever, and you break all that down. Then you sit down with directors and producers and you say, okay, give me your vision of what you want and you make all those notes. Then you go out into the world and try to find it and you give them as many options as you can. But at the same time it's not just the location, because If I have a large crew 65, 70 people well I've got to move all that crew around. I've got to have a place for them to park, I've got to have a base camp. So a location may look great but there might not be anything for miles to put them, so I have to have a base camp close by. You have to be able to put crew.

Speaker 5

Do you have to get body?

Speaker 7

Yes, well they call them Pemos. It's a big semi trailer, he know? Yeah.

Speaker 4

Okay, it's, it's they're, they're real fans. It's not really a porta potty, it's like a mobile home.

Speaker 2

That's got some. Oh Bathroom, maybe a changing room, oh.

Speaker 4

Not not so sure about a kitchen.

Speaker 7

Depending on the size of the budget. They do have trailers that are fully capable of having everything in it big so yes, if you've got, if they've got the budget for it and the star power, then yeah, they'll bring in Whatever they want.

Speaker 6

That's busy. See, I want to be on a set, not even like. I don't even care if I'm in front of the camera. I just want to be on a set that has one of those trailers so I can throw a small fit and say I'm going to my trailer and then slam the door. That's all I want.

Speaker 4

So we'll find you a little, a single wide, thank you.

Speaker 5

Oh, yeah, I have one of these manufactured home dealers. You could buy that one on the neighbor of mom and dad's down the street that died in it, the tiny home.

Speaker 4

Wait. In the connex in the middle, what was his?

Speaker 5

name.

Speaker 4

What are we?

Speaker 5

Ernie, ernie, yeah, oh my god, this guy he would go out on his porch and his dirty tiny whitey's. That's it Dirty. They were brown like.

Speaker 7

I'm okay with that. I mean, are you talking about the guy?

Speaker 6

like when you first pulled yeah, and he had the, the shipping container home.

Speaker 7

He was weird. I'm telling you how you cross 50. You quit caring, 51 this year and your level of care of what others think just Dramatically drops.

Speaker 6

I just wish his tidy whitey's had been cleaner.

Speaker 4

So you're okay, your soul.

Speaker 5

Oh, for sure.

Speaker 4

Yeah.

Speaker 6

I have not cared for a while. Taylor and I are 80 year old women.

Horror Movies and Filming Industry Discussion

Speaker 7

I just you know. For me, I started to understand my grandparents a lot better as to why they walked around the way they did.

Speaker 5

Acted the way they just too about myself.

Speaker 7

They just don't care. And as you get older You're like, yeah, now understand it.

Speaker 6

It's freeing, like I remember, like I'm.

Speaker 4

I'm pretty sure you know we make fun of we made fun of Ernie for doing it and joke about it.

Speaker 5

But that'll be me exactly my time.

Speaker 6

Will yours be clean?

Speaker 4

purposely.

Speaker 7

I'll do y'all one better. I'll go out my birthday suit. I really don't care there you go.

Speaker 4

I'll go shopping a Walmart because it doesn't mean anything doesn't matter there, like make it soon, I don't care, I don't even think people I'd probably fit in, and most of them anyway.

Speaker 5

That's right. I look pretty rough.

Speaker 6

I like those videos where it's where a girl is like okay, I'm going to Walmart and she's like Homeless, looking, and then she comes home she's like dang it, I have to go to Target. So she like gets all dressed up and does her makeup in her hair and like going out, going to Target.

Speaker 4

We had a talk with Casey's mom and dad about Trying to get their their house on like a Registry for locations to shoot at, because their backyard is Amazing. Oasis very nice in ground pool and just everything they've done back there. It could be a cool.

Speaker 7

I do want to the Oklahoma film.

Speaker 4

I haven't done anything yet, but yeah, is that where you do it at?

Speaker 7

Yeah, you come on there and just tell me you're interested in your you know film friendly.

Speaker 4

Yeah, so. And then our parents live on five acres and they have yeah, it's spooky on shrooms, barn.

Speaker 6

You could definitely shoot a, you know, post-pacoliptic.

Speaker 5

Oh yeah, end of days.

Speaker 6

Yeah, that's a little abandon. So that could won't even have to make.

Speaker 4

That could be an area too and I bet what could happen is Caddy corner. Just across the street is a good family friend of ours that has five acres and Majority of his could be like a. It could be a base camp area.

Speaker 2

Oh yeah.

Speaker 4

Yeah.

Speaker 7

I know you do comedy, but right show horror movie.

Speaker 4

Yeah, I don't. I have a script idea for something, but it's. It's not horror. It'd be more of a branchy comedy. Now. Her mom and dad's, my backyard, might be good for part of it, but it's basically a story about All the first times that Happens in romantic relationships, like your first kiss, and so it's like. I think I see it as a bunch of old friends sitting around Reminiscing about yeah, and it's like, and I remember my first kiss with so-and-so.

Speaker 4

So, stuff like that first first boob grab, first fart in front of the. You know the person you love, first shit with the door open, you know all that kind of stuff that's. That's a. That's something I'm gonna be working on here fairly soon. But horror I don't know. I just never been like a. I don't mind horror, but I think I like more Maybe suspense, yeah, or With some action, more than horror.

Speaker 6

So that's what I liked about your short was.

Speaker 4

I like alien movies too. You know like mm-hmm. I mean yeah, so.

Speaker 7

I like alien movies. Sometimes they I like them when they keep you in the dark as to what the alien looks like.

Speaker 6

Yes, you know it's there, but you never see it. Yeah, like no.

Speaker 4

Nope was good. I liked that was real good. The one I like that, yeah it's like my favorite you see the aliens pretty early on, but it's such a cool take on it. Is that, whether you can't make a sound? What's that movie? Oh?

Speaker 5

With a quiet place.

Speaker 6

Yeah, or bird box, oh.

Speaker 4

Bird box.

Speaker 6

They were they were, yeah, they were blindfolded, never mind, but yeah, quiet place.

Speaker 4

Yeah, I like that one cuz it was just a cool take on, you know, the whole Horror, alien genre. But yeah, I like it when you don't come out and show. Anything really soon. And that's what I don't like about some of the horror movies is when you have this build-up, the suspense, and you want it to keep going, but boom, here's the scary person.

Speaker 7

Or and it turns out not to be You're like.

Speaker 6

That that was it that's how you're given yeah, so yeah. I mean, if you want a horror movie, I'll just not take my nighttime medicine and have a whole Series of nightmares and oh, we'll write them down.

Speaker 7

Maybe To me a lot of the good horror movies for me were the ones where you, you didn't know, who was doing it? Yeah, the longer it went without you knowing what was going on, the more it pulled you in. You know it pulled you into it. You're like who's doing it? Mm-hmm and that's what'll really get you and it'll just keep you hooked. Yeah, wanting to know, that's the good ones.

Speaker 4

Yeah, yeah. So we try to see a horror movie. I think have we done it like once a year close, something like that pretty much anytime a new yeah, a horror movie comes out, you to go especially.

Speaker 2

Halloween.

Speaker 6

Yeah.

Speaker 4

Yeah, if a new Halloween.

Speaker 5

My last few times what?

Speaker 7

are they on like 25?

Speaker 4

You know, you know, michael's got a cane.

Speaker 5

That's how old it is on the end of the knife.

Speaker 7

I'm gonna catch you though.

Speaker 6

It's in an old folks home, yeah.

Speaker 4

Maybe we just make spoofs of all those.

Speaker 6

I'm gonna be hilarious movie.

Speaker 4

Oh, maybe yeah maybe it's a retirement home for all the Horror, funny, fucking Freddy in there and old Jason, an old Micah Micah.

Speaker 6

Micah, micah mouse.

Speaker 3

Michael.

Speaker 4

Myers and then a an old Candyman Pennywise, pennywise, mm-hmm. All of his balloons are deflated.

Speaker 6

And he, just, he just sits in like the corner of the the activity room folding paper boats.

Speaker 2

That's all he does.

Speaker 6

And he won't take his medicine.

Speaker 7

That could be funny.

Speaker 6

What's his name? Jigsaw.

Speaker 4

Actually I think his little clown guy on the tricycles and a power chair.

Speaker 6

I'm Daniel yeah, and he just goes up to people and he says do you wanna play?

Speaker 2

or whatever he says in the movie, and they just like they just like kick him.

Speaker 6

The orderlies are like out of here.

Speaker 4

He's got a shitty escape room set up. It's so easy to get out of yeah you don't have to, and he just take all your finger or hand off.

Speaker 6

He just takes everybody's glasses away. Try to get out of the door when you don't have your specs.

Speaker 4

They all got blue chew.

Speaker 7

You know that's a unique twist. Right there is All of an insane asylum. All their patients are actually all these different Characters, yeah, and the horror stories are just their dreams. Lots of gas.

Speaker 4

We got a lot of vent fans around here.

Speaker 5

And then at the end it's just Stephen King and it's all his personalities.

Speaker 7

So he would be the director and he's just stealing all of their ideas.

Speaker 6

Yes, yeah, like yes, I Did. I went down a Stephen King like 90s TV mini series Rabbit Hole. The last couple weeks I watched Rose, red and Perfect store. No, what is it? Storm of the century. I had never seen storm of the century and I'm obsessed with it. Now I want to watch it, like over and over again. It's so good. The movie.

Speaker 7

I've never seen.

Speaker 6

It's a, it's like a four episode made for TV, like mini series from 1990 maybe, and it's it's awesome.

Speaker 4

Two X's Died drinking the dad you got a walk what else? How do you?

Speaker 5

can you think the?

Speaker 4

State of Filming and productions. How is it in Oklahoma?

Speaker 7

It's amazing Oklahoma I know every state will probably say it oh, we've got a lot of talent. But Oklahoma is full of so much talent and passion for the industry it's growing pretty rapidly. If in win and I'm hoping it soon yeah, this strike ins, You're gonna see a lot of productions.

Speaker 5

I thought it didn't.

Speaker 7

Saga still on the right.

Speaker 4

The writer strike writers in they had like a sag has not Interim agreement or something in the water writer strike. So that's pretty much done. But yeah, they they sag and All those higher ups were, they had like a meeting, I think, like last week, and then negotiations fell through again. So it's back to the drawing board.

Speaker 7

The big argument is a percentage of the you know your residuals, because a Lot of the big studios don't want to pay the residuals and they're trying to. They're pretty much trying to get permission to Turn us all the actors into digital copies so they can use AI to just make a film.

Speaker 5

Stupid with your likeness. Oh.

Acting Experiences and Celebrity Encounters

Speaker 4

Yeah, they. They did that to people in a Big budget production here. That shot recently. Yeah, they took a bunch of the background actors and they got 3d scanned and that legal.

Speaker 5

Kinda right now it is so they can just make a movie with them.

Speaker 7

It was, it was. It was kind of deceptive in the way they did it, with a lot of the extras not realizing yeah, you know really what was going on so.

Speaker 4

So what they can do then it's tricky Is they can use that 3d scan of whoever and put it in a porn in, e and every.

Speaker 7

Have you ever seen some of the deep fake videos that they make, where it looks like Tom Cruise and it's not? That's why they're taking these. They're taking 3d scans there in. It's a. It's massive as far as how they do the one that I've seen. It's got cameras all around it and they're. You're standing in the middle Of all these cameras that are catching you from every angle you could like frame someone.

Speaker 5

Yeah, exactly, that's something and so they.

Speaker 4

What they would do is these background actors. They would only pay them like a hundred bucks. They'd show up, they'd get scan. Here's a hundred bucks, see you later. We don't need you anymore and they're gonna put them in.

Speaker 7

God knows what. Yeah, you know, on average in a background actor makes about a hundred fifty dollars a day. That's not a lot. But if you can come, if I can pay you to come in one day, now what I might have shot you for six or seven days or even ten days, only paid you once. Now I have your image, I have your likeness. That's weird.

Speaker 4

So and then you know, maybe they put you in a group of KKK fucking guys, you know.

Speaker 6

Yeah, they can put you in anything you already signed that.

Speaker 4

Yeah, you can use that.

Speaker 5

Oh my god Been done to you.

Speaker 7

No, not for me, I know you'd know because of how they scan you.

Speaker 6

Yeah, yeah, well, and they that particular film. They had so many extras. I mean like, and it was one of those like, hey, if you want to be an extra in this movie, come to this place at this time. Like it wasn't through like casting networks and that kind of stuff, it was just Anybody anybody, thank you who wanted to be in it. So it was. There's a lot of people that you know, don't know the industry and just saw it as like a ooh, this is a cool opportunity, and now they're I made a boo boo and a commercial.

Speaker 4

I was in and so me and. Kenny have the same agent, christina, christina.

Speaker 5

I emailed me.

Speaker 4

Yeah, we met Doing this political ad is that your meat Inmate?

Speaker 6

you Said is that your meat cute? Is the inmate story? Yeah.

Speaker 7

Yeah, I got to play a murderer, I love it.

Speaker 4

Yeah, I was a drug dealer.

Speaker 6

And he had the most ridiculous fake tattoos on his neck I've never seen.

Speaker 4

It was fun, it was good, it seemed like everything turned out great.

Speaker 6

But and it got buried- I know what I'm so sad because I really wanted to see it.

Speaker 7

I can say that I Don't know for sure, but I'm guessing that it was a Democratic party member that had it made and was hoping to slam a lot of people here locally and when they found out that they weren't gonna get the audience they wanted, it went away.

Speaker 6

It just never aired. They never Did anything with it. I think it's really weird, like you guys don't get as actors, you don't get notified.

Speaker 7

Sometimes you do.

Speaker 6

if that's the oh you do sometimes, oh, okay so I did, I Did.

Speaker 7

It's been about six years ago. I did Investigations, discovery and it's called Murder comes to town. Oh, I had to remember.

Speaker 7

Anyway, I was one of the leads for a whole old TV episode and they filmed it about a year before it was supposed to release. They were a year ahead and, luckily enough, the producers all emailed us all and said hey, your episodes about ready to come out, this is where it's gonna be, this is the channel and this is the time. So, so, which? Which season? What episode? Season five, episode one or two got it, I don't remember.

Speaker 6

now, oh, I'll find it, don't worry. That's on the regular rotation of. Tv shows. You want to turn that fan on well, probably both.

Speaker 5

Hot body. Oh my god.

Speaker 7

I got lucky on another one. I was in a. I don't know if you've ever heard of DJ shadow. I'll admit that at the time I didn't know who he was, but I love his music. Now I'm not really into the whole DJ scene. I'm a blues music kind of person. Yeah, grew up in Memphis, tennessee, oh, so I love blues and I got cast to be in a video and music video and, luckily enough, the same thing with them. They're all emailing us and keeping us up to date with everything that's going on.

Speaker 6

It's good.

Speaker 7

It released. He released it on YouTube and it blew up real fast so I was kind of amazed. That's awesome.

Speaker 6

Yeah, so you guys were on the that political ad together.

Supernatural Encounters in Oklahoma

Speaker 4

Uh-huh, and then let's see okay, mom, retribution, retribution. Yeah, Kenny was working that production.

Speaker 5

When does that come out?

Speaker 7

It's in post steel because it's a Civil war vampire movie. So they're they're working a lot on the special effects side, steel, and it could could take a while. Mm-hmm, they, they're not trying to rush it and make it look. You know batter things. So I was lucky enough to play, actually get to act in that and was on production at the same time.

Speaker 4

Yeah, you had a sweet Outfit for your world.

Speaker 7

I'm never seeing some photos and getting to work with Malcolm, yeah, yeah, amazing.

Speaker 4

Yeah, malcolm's one of our, Malcolm Goodwin. He's been in film and Acting for quite a long time. Where we really got introduced to him is on the series Reacher, which is on Couldn't even tell you one of the Amazon. Yeah, I think it's Amazon Prime video, I think. But anyway, we watched the first season. Second season should be out soon, I think, but first season Malcolm's in it and he's fucking awesome he's so cool, very talented, great guy to work with.

Speaker 7

He was super nice, yes.

Speaker 4

I got to meet him and talk with him for a little bit and got a photo with him. And that's weird because and Casey knows, I'm not someone that will just go up to a Person like that and be like make it a photo, and all that stuff. It's like I would I.

Speaker 7

Don't ask, I don't, that's not something I do. You could? You could go through my Facebook and Instagram. I've been on set with all kinds of people. Yeah, I just won't ask, it's not something I do. So now, on that particular set, my wife was working and she went to him like, hey, can I get a picture of y'all together? So I ended up with a picture with me and Malcolm as well.

Speaker 4

Yeah, yeah, just super nice dude. That whole set seemed cool.

Speaker 7

It was. It ran pretty good. I mean, there was little hiccups here and there, but you know, for the most part the production ran great, you know so that filmed. Tulsa Green country, because we moved down to yeah, that's that whole side of the state over there and I don't get that much.

Speaker 2

So, I didn't get out much.

Speaker 6

Where is that relation to on the island?

Speaker 7

It's Tulsa, you know, for a while so that's where I was in my callister that all that whole side Oklahoma's kind of divided. You have your Oklahoma City movie industry and then you have your Tulsa movie industry and sometimes it seems like a competition.

Speaker 4

I can see that.

Speaker 7

Yeah, for sure, you know pick trying to pick back and forth with crew and different things. So Oklahoma as a whole, though, is growing amazing. It's growing well, and I figure within the next four to five years, oklahoma is going to be a prime destination for moviemaking, so I hope so.

Speaker 5

I mean more roles bro.

Speaker 6

Yeah, I hope so Well in the state itself has such a. You know, if you're talking about seeking outsets and stuff, you have so many Diverse landscapes in the state. You know, like you said, you got Eastern Oklahoma, which is pretty, there's greens and and altitude is green country. Exactly, and then you got Western Oklahoma, if you need, you know nothing. If you want boring, exactly Panhandle, yeah, so that's pretty cool, yeah, thank you.

Speaker 4

Yeah, when I was on retribution it was at Fort Gibson and we were at the fort, so that was really cool, that not when you weren't in front of the cameras you could take a little walk around the fort and see everything was really cool. I had a good time.

Speaker 7

It might have been cool for you, but as a locations manager, it was not cool for me.

Speaker 6

Oh was it not.

Speaker 7

No, because I'm responsible for making sure that old piece of history doesn't get tore up, yeah.

Speaker 6

Yeah, don't touch anything, don't touch anything, don't touch anything.

Speaker 7

It's more like don't look at it, breathe on it, just stay 10 feet away.

Speaker 4

We'll get it in the shot.

Speaker 6

Don't you dare even get a splinter on that log.

Speaker 7

We just, we just shot in Dewey, oklahoma, where there's an actual old West town. Oh yeah, it's not old. The town itself looks old it was. It's been built over the last 30 years, but the buildings are full of antiques and even older than antiques, but some of the stuff was from the 1800s. Wow, and you're like. You know, I don't look at it, don't touch it.

Speaker 6

Don't take a picture.

Speaker 7

You know there's. There's three million dollars worth of antiques in all those buildings and they're like just stay away. Stay over there, don't touch it, don't mess with it. Leave it all in there.

Speaker 5

Did you see any things Boogie? Yes, yeah.

Speaker 7

So dish, dish. There's it's naughty nails, which you love. The saloon is called naughty nails and it's my kind of place. Yes, and the saloon is amazing. If you want to look up Prairie Song, facebook them and follow them. They're all over it. Bailey that helps run the set there. She's amazing and, going into naughty nails, I'm standing there. There's this old cash register, like old cash register, and I thought I was. I thought other people was in the room, but there wasn't. I was just in there by myself and I went to go out the door and I heard it, you know the chaching yes.

Speaker 7

I'm like, oh my God, OK, I'm going to go ahead and go on out.

Speaker 5

OK, thank you, Bye now. Did you get like the chills?

Speaker 7

No, I actually live in a haunted house and they were probably getting Heck yeah. The house I live in has the original owner. She's still there. So when she built the house, her and her husband built it and just like within a year of it being built, back in the 70s, he passed away. So she lived in this house for like 30 years alone, by herself. Well, when she passed away, I guess she just started to stay.

Speaker 5

That's like my old house. I think they were the only that lived there before it was. She could see her every now and then she was scary.

Speaker 6

I didn't like that. I mean, I didn't feel like, oh, I could not stay in that house. It scared me, oh, it scared me to death. Sometimes, but Mm hmm, bad, jujuice Once.

Speaker 5

I went to a medium I Then you were fine. I felt like the one was there.

Speaker 7

The lady that lives, that's there, she's fine, she doesn't do anything. You see her or you just every now, and then you can see her, and she was a chain smoker, so like you can be sitting in certain parts of the house and it'll feel like it just got blown right in your face and they're like. Ok.

Speaker 6

I'm here, she's here. What's her name? Do you know?

Speaker 7

I don't know, I've never really wanted to look up and I just leave her alone. She's at peace as far as I'm concerned.

Speaker 4

That's awesome. We we had a house a rent house that Was haunted and we joined a Paranormal team Years ago, yeah, and we did an investigation. That's that house and we were all sitting in the living room and we heard like someone making coffee, tea, something in the kitchen and we were like hey, is everybody in here?

Speaker 4

Yeah, yeah, and we go. I go into the kitchen and where our coffee maker was, the cupboard doors were all open and everything was shut. You know, as a investigation team, you go in stuff like that, you make sure things are shut, you get your baseline readings and everything. And it was insane because, you could just hear it. I mean, it was.

Speaker 6

And it wasn't like you know, like all of a sudden, like a shelf broke and everything fell out, like nothing was a mess. It just that cupboard was open, coffee cups were on the counter. Like it was crazy, what Can?

Speaker 5

you see a cat or something? Oh yeah, we had a ghost cat. We had a ghost cat in that house. We had a Halloween party.

Speaker 6

We don't have cats because I'm allergic to cats. So no cats in our house. And my friend Emily, she comes, I don't know. She walks outside and she was like you said that you're allergic to cats and I was like I am. What, what do you mean, liar?

Speaker 9

She said I just saw your cat and she's razzled me.

Speaker 6

And I was like Emily I do not have a cat. I promise I don't have a cat I don't have a pussy cat. And she was like no, there was like a dark gray cat. It like walked right by my legs and I watched it walk into the office and I was like, oh, ghost cat, it was church Just ghost cat Pet cemetery and I think when we were doing the investigation I caught the cat's meow.

Speaker 4

Yeah, you got a meow on it on a EVP.

Speaker 6

Oh my God, I never let them come to my house to do that because I was too afraid to.

Speaker 5

What we would find, because you had demon lady in your house.

Speaker 4

So the team was sitting there, so the team was sitting in my youngest son, logan's room because he said he had experienced things in there and I kept seeing something. So everything's dark. I keep seeing something walking on the floor in front of the bedroom door, just kind of pacing, and I was like is that fucking ghost cat? I swear it is. And so I slid my EVP, my recorder, towards the door and I think I picked up a meow.

Speaker 6

It was just like that. Just like that, it was weird. It was wild and we had a you saw a young man right A delay. All the boys were over. Oh, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4

Yeah, so I don't know who it was probably.

Speaker 5

Logan Was he wearing?

Speaker 4

colonial clothing.

Speaker 6

No, no Was it a woman in white.

Speaker 4

I think it was for Logan's birthday. We let him have kids.

Speaker 6

Well, the boys just had. The boys had several friends over, and so, like they were, in the party house Playing video games and stuff.

Speaker 4

Yeah, so they were in the formal living room playing.

Speaker 5

Yeah, because it was an older house. Yeah.

Speaker 4

And so then they started playing like hide and seek or something like that, and I didn't want them playing in my office, like just don't play in there. And from the kitchen to the office. So we were in the den watching TV and out of the corner of my eye I could see a child size. It looked like a shadow kind of come out of the kitchen right into the office. You were like God dammit, and I walked back there. Nothing, time to move.

Speaker 4

I was like Logan did you are you guys playing in the office? And he's like, no, we're all over there, we're all over this area playing. And I was like, huh, that's what that was there you go.

Speaker 6

There was also a murder room in that house. That's what we called. It was the murder room. It had like a basement.

Speaker 4

Oh yeah.

Speaker 7

Does it just follow you around?

Speaker 4

No.

Speaker 6

No, we had nothing here.

Speaker 4

Yeah, yeah, I wish the basement, so in the office was wood paneling, like old school wood paneling. It was awesome. And then it was almost like a secret door, but not super hidden but wood paneling, and you open this door and there's just just little bitty hallway with stairs straight down into our basement area.

Speaker 6

And there was like a window in the weird little hallway and a and like shelving at the end of it. It was weird, it was like a bunker pantry.

Speaker 4

It was all white tile. Floor wall ceiling Murder Down there. We called it the murder room, yeah, but during that investigation we went down there and Nothing.

Speaker 6

It was so boring.

Speaker 4

I could have fallen asleep, yeah, so.

Speaker 7

We shot a movie called the bell ham at in Bartlesville. It was a psychological thriller kind of horror movie. That whole house that we shot in was. There was some definite Weird energy Mm. Hmm, About that.

Speaker 5

I hear when people are like it's not real, there's not. You just are coming up with that and I'm like if you felt those feelings before, you would know.

Speaker 7

Yeah, because they're different. Yeah, I think you've met him, garrett O'Brien, big, tall guy, shaved head on set.

Speaker 4

I don't know, garrett, maybe I'm not sure.

Speaker 7

He lives in Bartlesville, he's a good friend of mine, he works on productions with me, done some acting different acting. We did one for Mike McDonald up here in Oklahoma City Good guy and he was working on the bell ham with me and we were down in the basement and it was not cold but you could go from one side of the basement to the other and it would feel like you were going into an icebox and there was a secret panel to a different area down there so you'd have to take a whole section of the wall.

Speaker 6

Murder resumes.

Speaker 4

Yeah, we did a investigation when we were so we were with this previous team, shit happened. We quit that team and then we started our own team. But when we were with that initial team, we got to go investigate the Booneville Sanatorium in Booneville, arkansas.

Speaker 6

Booneville, booneville.

Speaker 4

That was for a different thing.

Speaker 6

That was Bachelor Party. That was Dan's Bachelor Party Booneville, booneville.

Speaker 7

That's a different kind of production.

Speaker 4

Yeah you have to have a very special permit. That's not legal in this state.

Speaker 7

I don't think Oklahoma allows those, but in one time they probably will We'll get there Probably.

Speaker 4

They had an extensive basement area in that place and you don't want to talk about. Nope, I don't think I could do that.

Speaker 7

Oh, I'd love to. I'd love to be on the Costa. Oh, it was a cost of.

Speaker 6

I had fun she did Well, because here's what happened. You have nightmares, dude, no, goddamn.

Strange Experiences and Ghostly Encounters

Speaker 5

Sanatorium.

Speaker 6

Well, the same. It sounds like like a sanatorium, sounds like it should be like a crazy house and it's a tuberculosis hospital.

Speaker 3

That's what a sanatorium is. So it's one.

Speaker 6

It's one built Lots of dead people right. It's one long hallway, multiple floors of just one quarter mile long.

Speaker 4

They were two wings each a quarter mile long.

Speaker 6

It was crazy.

Speaker 7

Well, back in the day, when they did sanatoriums like that and people had tuberculosis, they would isolate them.

Speaker 6

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 7

Like you know, make a couple, one gets it. She goes live there.

Speaker 6

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 7

And he raises the kids on it because that was where you were.

Speaker 6

And they had these. They had big windows because, you know, sunlight was good for tuberculosis and stuff, so, uh, so a couple of things happened there in the when we went to the basement. We walked down and I stayed up on a step because I was like I'm not putting my foot on that floor. No, no, I will get sucked into a vortex, I will be taken and I will not come back Like it freaked me out so bad.

Speaker 6

Exactly so then, uh, we had a couple of really interesting experiences. The one that sent me done for the night we were third floor, I think, of this place and we had two other guys on our team, uh, that were just with us at the moment. So we had, uh, doug was way ahead of us, jay was between us, and then I'm walking with Shane and I have my left arm through his right arm and we're walking side by side. You can't see anything Like. We only know where Jay and Doug are because we can see the green light from their recorders, but you can't actually see that you couldn't see this far in front of your face.

Speaker 6

Yeah, I mean it was pitch black, it was wild. So we're walking. It's late, it's like three in the morning, we're kind of tired, it's just getting a little. So I'm walking with my arm through his and, uh, you know, like when you can hear or feel someone walk up behind you, I got that rush like some, someone, something, rushed up on me and I stopped and I turned around. I was like not funny, you can stop it now, don't want that, thank you. And happened a few times and was like okay, whatever. Then I got like I'll have to show on Shane's arm on my outside shoulder, so where no one is, I get a full hand on my shoulder, like I could feel the heel of their palm to their fingertips just like rolled up on my outside shoulder.

Speaker 6

I said so many cuss words, I screamed, I made up new words, I turned on my flashlight, whipped around and I gave who or whatever. This thing was a stern talking to.

Speaker 5

Listen here, you tinny cuckoo.

Speaker 6

Listen here, motherfucker. Like I was so mad because I had said to every all the things out there, like you know, you know not touching you, kind of state your intentions, like what's allowed and what not. And I said you can come talk to me, you can walk beside me. You cannot touch me, won't I? That is my, I won't, won't do it. Well, this one said, haha, bitch, fuck you, I'm going to do it anyway.

Speaker 6

So that's why, they did it, I know. So I scream so loud, I ruin audio for every team. And there were dozens of people in this place at the time, not none on our floor, but they're like, who wrote the rookie? Like I scream so loud, you can hear it on everybody's recorder. So, then I said you need to take me back downstairs right now. So he took me down to the like base camp that had lights and everything on the first floor and I was like I'm done, I quit, I'm done for the night.

Speaker 4

And then. So I would have a digital recorder that I would carry, and then I have an extra one and I would set it down on the end of one of the hallways on a far end, just in case our presence on one end pushed anything, you know, if it was just getting away from us. So my recorder was down at the end and I was like gosh shit, I got to go get that recorder. So I start walking down about halfway through. Everything just stops me like an invisible force field. Something was like you can't go past here and my body just locks up. I'm like I don't get scared of that stuff and so I try to keep going, but something's like no you're not going down here.

Speaker 4

I was like fuck, okay. So I walked back and dug to Doug and Jay and I said, hey, can someone go down there and get that voice recorder for me? I didn't tell them what I experienced and they couldn't see me, what happened to me anyway, because you can't see four inches in front of your face. So Doug says, yeah, I'll go down there and get it. He goes down and then he comes back. He's like fuck, I can't get down there.

Speaker 5

I said what.

School Farts, Auditions, and Acting

Speaker 4

He said yes, something, something stopped me. I was like where, and it had some weird someone had put like because I think they used that place as a haunted house at some point and they had like these vines and like tree limbs kind of making an arch. And that's where it hit me, that's where it hit Doug. I was like fuck, okay. So then we get startled by a guy that just comes up behind us hey guys, and he's got this yeah, exactly, he looks like a one man band.

Speaker 4

He's got this UV light rig and it's like we're like oh my God.

Speaker 6

He's like hey guys, what's up For real?

Speaker 4

And I said, hey, this is my weed in here it does smell like weed in here.

Speaker 5

Yeah, we didn't. You just pump it through the air.

Speaker 4

So we tell him hey, there's a voice recorder on the windowsill at the very end of the house. Do you, can you go down there and get that force? I got this gallon, yeah, he's got to gallon. That guy gets down there, he retrieves the recorder, he comes back and we were like so did you experience anything weird going down there? He goes. Well, I kind of did at one point something wanted to stop me, but I was able to push through it.

Speaker 2

We were like, okay, so that was one weird thing that I experienced there.

Speaker 4

Nothing like hers, but still odd. Yeah, very odd.

Speaker 7

You know I love that kind of stuff I would love to do, to do those type of investigations myself. Maybe someday.

Speaker 6

Hey, we have all the gear still.

Speaker 2

Let's still, let's go. We got all the things. We have it all, I kind of wanted to do like a big game with only

Speaker 4

make sure to bring the depends for Taylor.

Speaker 6

Yeah, well, po Po. Well then there was also like, at that same investigation, you guys ended up getting bored after I went downstairs, Like it was. It's like four in the morning. They're sitting in this, like it was probably like a sunroom back in the day, because it was just one big area at the end of one of the hallways, all windows, atrium, yeah, like an atrium, and there was a bunch of bird poop.

Speaker 4

No, there was a bunch of dead pigeons.

Speaker 6

Dead pigeons. That's what it was. It was so weird.

Speaker 4

Well, we started talking about ghost farts.

Speaker 6

Ghost farts.

Speaker 4

Ghost shits and wiping your ass with pigeons or something, I don't think you should be a ghost.

Speaker 6

It got weird.

Speaker 7

You had to have been that kid in school that farted every day in class, right.

Speaker 4

I did.

Speaker 5

He was the one that dropped the book and then.

Speaker 6

I think I have bad timing.

Speaker 4

I got a fart roll bed. You think if I cough it'll cover it up. No I never know in school.

Speaker 5

He wasn't a comedian then.

Speaker 4

I was fucking quiet.

Speaker 7

Really, I was malvium loud.

Speaker 4

I didn't want any.

Speaker 5

You seem very quiet. Yeah, I'm like you're so chill.

Speaker 4

I didn't want anybody to change his way. I think, is what it was.

Speaker 7

Well, I mean I'm probably going to get myself in a whole lot of trouble on this one. My family already knows and I've been punished for it way back in the day. But in the seventh grade I'm mooned the entire school, good job.

Speaker 5

I wish I was that brave, I've never really cared. You have the. I don't give a fuck.

Speaker 7

Yeah, I know in, none whatsoever.

Speaker 5

I don't get embarrassed.

Speaker 7

You know I don't get embarrassed by things. You know it kind of helps to do acting.

Speaker 5

Because you can't really let things get too complicated, because everyone's going have judgement.

Speaker 7

You'll tell you auditions are like asking the prom queen out over and over. And constantly being rejected. I could see that that's what it is of time your audition. You put yourself out there, put everything you got into it and then you're like never hear anything. No yeah so it's like ultimate ghosting. I didn't even get told.

Speaker 6

no, no, I just didn't hear anything, I just got ghosted. I'm not even good enough for a no, like a thanks.

Speaker 5

but no, thanks, see, I would like dwell on it. I can't. I dwell on things that happened seven years ago, you do.

Speaker 4

I think sometimes early on, I think you do In the beginning you will.

Speaker 7

I don't know how long you've been doing the auditions and stuff yourself, but Just over a year, after a while, two years, two years now, then you're at that stage, you'll stop.

Speaker 4

Oh yeah, yeah, I stopped a long time ago.

Speaker 7

I mean, I keep all my sides, I keep all that stuff. I have everything like on my hard drive and I even have the printed ones still, because I'll print them off, I'll highlight them. I do a scene study, the kind of before and after what I'm reading, to get a feel of the character. If they give it to me, certain casting directors will only give you two pages. Other casting directors will send you the entire script. Yeah, so depending on which one you get, you can prepare for it better.

Speaker 6

Yeah, does your wife read for you?

Speaker 7

Sometimes yeah.

Speaker 5

Did you always want to be an actor?

Speaker 7

Oh yeah, growing up back in Memphis, tennessee, that was something I kept it to myself, I never told anyone. I was always, you know, under the impression that growing up in Memphis that was never an option for me. I didn't live in California, I didn't live in Hollywood, so I just kept it to myself and never really talked about it. But I was always a fan of the Alfred Hitchcock's and the Twilight Zone and all those shows. I loved them. And the comedy shows you know, samford and Son was one of my favorites.

Speaker 6

So I was just trying to make the Put it on low. Put it on low, so you gotta go here. God, don't you live here, not in this room. It's technology. I don't live in this room. Shut your mouth, sir.

Speaker 7

When you don't live in California.

Speaker 5

You just assume that you can't that, you'll never, or there's not that where you're at, so Whatever.

Speaker 4

Might have said it on the podcast before, but you would have been Drunk, not six years old or five years old, you don't know. That's true. That's true, we did live in the country on the trailer house you could have got, but John class of Casablanca is here in the city.

Speaker 5

Oh, like the modeling and acting.

Speaker 4

They did modeling, acting and all that I tried. I tried out for them, you did. And then I went up to their office and they had me cold read a Like a peanut butter script commercial. I liked it and I never heard back from them.

Speaker 6

So you're like me, Lou Tuesday.

Speaker 4

And I don't even fucking like peanut butter, like it had to be.

Speaker 5

Fucking peanut butter, that's why you didn't get it.

Speaker 4

They didn't call back. So at that point I was probably 16, because I remember I drove there. So I was like OK, maybe I'm just not. I remember when they approached me and my friends at the mall. Oh yeah.

Speaker 5

You could be a model. I was like I fucking ugly and like 13 lanky and like when you're so awkward.

Speaker 4

Like she looked like a 13 year old.

Speaker 5

Her go bang.

Speaker 4

Her go bang, she did.

Speaker 5

I was like that's not correct.

Speaker 7

Anyone getting into industry, I always kind of openly give a warning about that particular place. They're more of a pay to play and they're not. But any agent, any agent that wants money up front is in the legitimate agent.

Speaker 4

Yeah, so it's. It's so much easier now to know the reputation of all the places because of the internet, social media and all that. So anybody that wants to get in this industry today has a huge advantage.

Speaker 7

Oh yeah.

Speaker 4

Over us way back in the day where you didn't have email, you didn't have texting anything.

Speaker 5

Well, like you said, you just knew that place. Yeah.

Speaker 4

That's the only.

Speaker 7

I knew of you know the only way to audition was in person. But yeah, there was no such thing as self tapes or anything like that. It was all in person, the lockdown, whatever. That's really what that's what promoted self taping. So that's what. What grew it into what it is now? A lot of things came from that.

Speaker 6

Yeah, do you. Do? You like Tiktok? Is my favorite Do you like self tapes Like?

Speaker 7

the convenience of them? Yes, sure. The lack of a personal relationship with the casting director no, I don't like that. I like to be in front of a casting director. I've become friends with several of them and you get a lot more feedback. Sure, you know, when a when a casting director takes the time to say Some casting directors, they're like there's your line, stop right there, stare at the camera, blah, blah, blah. Ok, you can leave now and it's just, that's it. Other casting directors will be like you know what I liked, that take, but let's do this.

Speaker 6

And I feel like that would be really important for a casting director to get a feel for how coachable and how directable and actor it is. So I, as a casting director, I would probably prefer to have that one on one. Even if I loved your take, I'm going to tell you that I wanted something just a little different, to see if you have that ability to switch it up and do something you know and that's what I do now in myself tapes.

Direction and Flexibility in Acting

Speaker 7

Even if it specifically says only do one take, then fine, but if it's left open I'll do two or three. I try not to go past three, but if I just really feel like I can get a fourth take on it, I might. Yeah, so I will. I will do multiple takes and I'll give them different approaches. Now, two years ago, my auditions I would have laughed at them because they were full and I've just I built my own studio down in my basement, which in Oklahoma is rare.

Speaker 6

I was about to say whoa.

Speaker 7

Yeah, I built my own studio and some of the other. Sometimes if I can't sleep or whatever, I'll just go down there and I'll put all my stuff up. I'll just use my phone most of the times and I'll just record myself. You know doing different things, different even past auditions that I've had, just to get a better feel Then go back and watch it, and that was the hardest thing for me to do was to watch myself. I hate watching myself because you're your own worst critic, Absolutely, and so you know I get past it.

Speaker 5

I'm listening to myself on these podcasts. I'm like is that what I sound like?

Speaker 4

I don't know. I have you on here. I can't stand your voice. I think what's helped me is I started stand up comedy before the acting and so you want to talk about being put on the spot to entertain people or you're not going to entertain them is being on that stage in front of a live audience and your self-confidence, you know, can be built up if you stick with it. And I stuck with it for a while but then found acting, really because of stand-up. So I'm grateful that I started that journey, but I love the acting way more than the stand-up because I don't know, I don't know why, but I do. I may not be very good at stand-up, but maybe that's why. But it has helped me in confidence, in going. I don't fucking care, right, I don't care what the director may think of me or other people, I'm going to put my best product out there. And there you go.

Speaker 7

For me, I call myself directable and the reason I say that is I want a director to say you know what I didn't like that take. Do it different. Yeah, and I'm okay with that. It's not going to hurt my feelings. I'm not going to argue with you. I'm going to give you a different take on it.

Speaker 4

I think that's military background too is like we can take some criticism Sure.

Speaker 7

Yeah, but I've seen actors. I've been on enough sets. I've seen actors that want to argue like well, you know, I think that it should be this way. The director is there for directing. Yeah.

Speaker 5

I work with people like that, it's so fucking annoying.

Speaker 6

I was about to say I work with teachers and yeah.

Speaker 5

I'm not smarter than you. I get it.

Speaker 7

I've heard a lot of the actors. Well, that's why you hired me and. But now I hired you to give me the character that I want and more part to them. If the actors out there they want to go that route, that's fine. But for me personally, I want a director that's going to give me direction. That's how I want it, and if I'm giving you what you want, then I'm going to keep right on going. If you stop me and say, hey, try it a different way, Then that's what I'll do.

Speaker 4

Yeah, I'll kind of roll back my statement a bit. It's not so much that I don't care what the director thinks, it's more of I'll embarrass myself Right, like in a. So I did the adventures of Jurassic Pet 3 return to the wild, and that will come out hopefully.

Speaker 7

Were you one of the goons.

Speaker 4

I was. So there's a in that movie. It's also centered around this documentary film crew inside the movie and I'm one of those crew members, yeah.

Speaker 7

I auditioned for it, but the parts that I was going for ended up being cut out. As what?

Speaker 4

I was told, oh, it was fun. And then they had me get into a green scene suit, yeah, and I was like fuck you, I'll do it, let's go, and we need you in the middle of the street in El Reno, just in this skin tight. But I put it on and went. Maybe I wasn't so prepared, but you know what?

Speaker 6

Didn't wear the right, here we are.

Speaker 4

We're going for it and I had fun, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7

I think Ryan was on that one. Ryan, francis, he was in that one somewhere.

Speaker 4

I'm trying to remember. I can't remember where exactly. I don't remember, yeah, but oh, it was a fun shoot and I had a really really good time. That was done by boiling point media media out of Edmund. I really love Chris and Ryan. Yeah, they were so fun to work with. We had a great time.

Speaker 5

Was all of it filmed in El Reno?

Speaker 4

No, no, no. We did some filming in El Reno, we did some filming by Lake Arcadia, and then they had some other. That's close to it, almost to the chicken chat. And then they had some other areas where they shot that I just wasn't in those scenes. So they had some other areas. It's just so fun. I love it. I wish I was, I wish it could be my full time job. It's not yet. Maybe I'll get there, maybe I won't.

Speaker 2

But that's okay.

Speaker 7

Yes, this is all I do.

Speaker 6

That's awesome. That's cool. Does it help to keep it a full time job? That you also do the production side, that it's not just the acting side?

Creating Comedy and Horror Projects

Speaker 7

I just fell in love with being on set, yeah, and I decided that it didn't matter whether I was acting or crew. I just wanted to be on set, that's awesome.

Speaker 6

So do you work with a particular, particular production company?

Speaker 7

No, I've worked with multiple ones. I did a meta commercial Facebook. I've worked with John Schwab.

Speaker 6

Cool. So are you like an independent contractor kind of thing?

Speaker 7

All crew pretty much is.

Speaker 6

That's awesome.

Speaker 7

And most of them get their foot in the door. They'll start off as a PA production assistant and kind of decide if they want to work electric or whatever and kind of branch out from there.

Speaker 6

I have a PA credit.

Speaker 2

Oh, yeah, you do On Brenly.

Speaker 6

Brenly, we were talking about low budget, no budget.

Speaker 7

A lot.

Speaker 6

The first film Shane was in was a low budget, no budget in Tahlequah and it was great. It was so much fun.

Speaker 4

Turned out so good. And the guy is the other thing is you don't have to have a huge budget now to put out a quality product. That's what we learned from that.

Speaker 6

For sure.

Speaker 4

Jeremy Scott did friendly director of it and he did a fantastic job.

Speaker 6

We had like coffee or whatever with Jeremy before going up and filming and we were just kind of getting to know each other. I was just there because I'm a sidekick and he said something to me about like, oh, are you an actress or anything? I said no, I did musicals and stuff. And I said I did love doing straight plays, though even though I didn't do straight plays, I did like I did like set design and makeup and hair, like that kind of stuff. And he was like oh, you do you do makeup? And I was like, and that was that was all I thought until we get, until we get up on set. And he's like so I got this stuff and I need you to do some special effects Makeup.

Speaker 3

I know you're not talking to me.

Speaker 6

What? And he was like yeah, make it look like this eyeballs popping out of this guy's head.

Speaker 4

And I was like okay, did a great job. It was so much fun.

Speaker 6

And I got to operate the camera a couple of times and he was like, hey, you're going to get a PA credit. And I was like, hell, yeah, I am.

Speaker 4

I did some.

Speaker 6

Where's my IMDB Behind the scenes?

Speaker 4

photos. Yeah, it was fun like that. Yeah, there's a good time, good, good time.

Speaker 5

I've only done acting when we were children and we borrowed a video.

Speaker 7

He hurt you and got him and killed him I mean I've done that.

Speaker 5

Actually, they didn't fight that much. I was the other brothers. No, we got along Protected.

Speaker 2

I was protector of her from our other Daniel Mary.

Speaker 4

Watch dog home videos.

Speaker 6

Yeah, we made that terror teddy.

Speaker 4

No, I did that with some other buddies of mine which that could, that could be turned into a there's a horror movie I can rewrite terror teddy.

Speaker 6

It was Do it again, do it again. That was great.

Speaker 4

Let me do it, but it was a.

Speaker 5

That's like Freddy Cougar.

Speaker 6

Sound like a belch.

Speaker 4

It was a little stuffed animal teddy bear that got possessed by demon after listening to.

Speaker 6

Metallica.

Speaker 4

Metallica song.

Speaker 5

Did you take mine or my teddies? Huh, did you take one of my teddies?

Speaker 4

No no. It was Dave's, dave Campbell. He had a stuffed teddy bear.

Speaker 7

You could easily take that back to the 80s style movie.

Speaker 4

Heck yeah, having like critters or have the teddy bear listen to kiss, because they really swore up and down you know, oh, that was the then, so yeah, so then we would, we would kind of show the teddy bear and then we would pause the recording and then the the camera would be like first person of the teddy bear and we somehow attached a big old butcher knife to the teddy bear's arm. So the camera, you could see the teddy bear arms and the knife, and just He'll stay even our other buddy, brent, in the house. So it was pretty cool.

Speaker 7

It's like my daughter's room. She has original raggedy and she's got a controller quest Annabelle no.

Speaker 6

Hard pass.

Speaker 7

Yeah, she's got the originals and a ventriloquist. No, it's got a yeah, they're just sitting around her room.

Speaker 4

Didn't you have like a teddy Ruckspin? And then somebody was like I wonder if it can swim.

Speaker 5

Yeah, it was the fucking neighbors at the foster home.

Speaker 6

At the fast one.

Speaker 5

Oh, you had foster kids at the home and yeah, I don't remember which one it was, but I don't even know why we had a pool.

Speaker 4

I mean, it wasn't a big pool, but it had to have been just one of those little there in there and then after that he's like Wow, do you remember those creepy dolls mom had in their bedroom?

Speaker 5

And she was like the only things that survived the fire from when I was a kid and I'm like it was this weird bear.

Speaker 2

I don't know where they're at like a weird face.

Speaker 5

Yeah, yeah. Weird eyeballs, yeah, yeah and she had a raggedy and an Andy doll. No, I didn't like the bear and I didn't like the raggedy and an Andy doll.

Speaker 6

I had an aunt who bought me. I don't know why, but my aunt Susie bought me like, like porcelain dolls, uh-oh, and they were all around my room on these shelves Actually it was these shelves, just all around my room. I had these porcelain dolls. And finally, and I was little, and then I got, when I got a little bit older, I was like dad, could we please give it up, these dolls? They're talking to me. They're so scary I won't do it. I don't like the Like I won't do the Annabelle movies.

Speaker 5

I mean I watch them, but no those scares me.

Speaker 6

Those will absolutely terrify me because there will 100%. When I get up at three o'clock in the morning to go pee, there will be a doll, like in my closet or something. I guarantee it. I don't even have a doll, but there will be one, yeah.

Speaker 7

I'm a firm believer but that you don't have to have a big budget, you don't have to have all that. You know, if you want to create something, just create it.

Speaker 5

Just like a good story and a good Well, and I was telling you about Garrett?

Speaker 7

he and I are working on some stuff and he actually I've pitched him. I've pitched to him you playing one of the main characters. Heck, yeah, oh we got something that we're working on, kind of two different projects under one YouTube channel where it's going to be five minute movies.

Speaker 3

The movies are only going to be five minute movies, but it's a series.

Speaker 7

It's a series. Every one of them are tie into the next one, that's cool yeah. One's a comedy specifically making fun of crew people.

Speaker 6

Oh, that's fun.

Speaker 7

Oh yeah, just you can do like a comedy murder.

Speaker 4

I wanted to do like a, like a. It's a movie or a show about a crew and actors that are doing like a kid show, you know. So they're all like and this is a shoe how do we spell shoe, you know, like that. But then after a cut it's like fuck, god damn, I'm sick of this shit. You know, it's just all dirty.

Speaker 7

You're talking about doing a spoof of blues clues.

Speaker 6

Yeah, like the. Wiggles blues Blues.

Speaker 4

Blues.

Speaker 6

Blues.

Speaker 2

Blues yeah.

Speaker 7

And then you got like that's a good name though, brother.

Speaker 6

And then can we do a can you? Can you have like tell a tubby type and like they take? You know they take their weird like little mass things off and they're all like carnies and they're hot and they're sweating and they're like they don't have any teeth Settin' over in the corner, smoke over here.

Speaker 4

Yeah, exactly. Some of them have like a spoon and a lighter like and like maybe, maybe there's kids on set you know, film and something, and then it's cut and then they're all having to be, you know, clean language and all this and then finally it's like, hey, the kids are wrapped and they're out and people are like God damn it, thank God, the kids are gone.

Speaker 3

Jesus, fuck them kids. I hate those little shits yeah.

Speaker 4

And it's all a kid's show. That'd be pretty fun. Yeah, oh, can it be like Miss?

Speaker 6

Rachel. Well, yeah, that's kind of the.

Speaker 4

Yeah, it's Miss Rachel. And then when it cuts, it tries to porn.

Speaker 6

Yes, miss Rachel's, like I need to change for my next set. It goes around the corner to the other side of the set.

Speaker 4

It's like a sex swing.

Speaker 2

It's a porn. I need to spank it.

Speaker 6

And then they're like hey, where's little.

Speaker 4

Billy at, and then they hear something. He's in the sex swing Playing Superman. Billy, get out of that?

Speaker 6

Why is it sticky?

Speaker 4

What's this big bottle for? It's real slicky, slicky.

Speaker 6

Look, Mom, slime. They made slime.

Speaker 5

So we got ideas.

Speaker 7

You might get banned.

Speaker 5

Yeah, bye.

Speaker 4

I don't know how this podcast has lasted like three seasons and we haven't been banned yet 14 fans 14 fans.

Speaker 5

That's why, yeah, we haven't offended too many people yet.

Speaker 4

Keeping us alive. They haven't listened to. No, we got more than that.

Speaker 7

Mostly family, though right no.

Speaker 4

Well yeah. Oh, no, no.

Speaker 5

Our family aren't very supportive of anything.

Speaker 4

Yeah.

Speaker 7

You know, in a way, I was kind of surprised that a lot of my family were more supportive than I thought they would be.

Speaker 6

So that's, nice.

Speaker 7

You know, I kind of thought I was going to get you know a lot of ribbing and, like you know, go get a real job.

Speaker 5

Yeah.

Speaker 4

Yeah.

Speaker 5

You're like look at me now.

Speaker 4

Yeah, not ours.

Speaker 2

Not that they don't.

Speaker 4

I think it's more. Yeah, I don't know what it is.

Speaker 7

I mean, I've got an older brother is you know he's a great guy, but I don't think he would know what to do in life if he didn't clock in and clock out.

Speaker 5

I think ours is more like I think you shouldn't be talking about that on the airwaves. You shouldn't be talking about your sex life and you or she be embarrassed and I'm like I don't fucking care.

Speaker 7

Yeah, I'll talk about it.

Speaker 5

I don't get embarrassed, so I think that's more of what maybe.

Speaker 4

Maybe not, so maybe our larger family yeah.

Speaker 5

Even like I don't know mom and dad, are moms more religious now than she has ever been?

Speaker 7

My mom is extremely religious and anytime I play a character like a bad guy or, you know, vampire, she's like. I don't like that. It's acting.

Speaker 5

It's acting, not real.

Speaker 4

She'll still watch it. It's make believe we're just playing around. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5

So a few family members who haven't been on because they're like, I don't want to affect my job.

Speaker 2

Oh yeah.

Speaker 5

So they're like worried for whatever reason.

Speaker 4

Yeah.

Speaker 5

So not supportive, like oh it's stupid, but just like it's wrong, I don't know.

Speaker 4

Yeah.

Speaker 5

What will people think?

Speaker 4

I still think they're. They're still proud of things we do.

Speaker 5

Oh yeah, Sometimes it we're also not a very like vocal out word. Loving family, like very loving, Very loving, very supportive people hug a lot. We don't like, I don't know. It's hard for us to show emotions, so it's hard to be like that's a good job.

Speaker 7

It's like cool, I don't know. I've been around him a lot. He says motion.

Speaker 5

Well, he is the most emotional and lovey of 100% everybody, but everyone else can't show their emotions.

Speaker 4

Oh yeah, Our brothers.

Speaker 5

Oh God no.

Speaker 6

They're not going to God love them.

Speaker 5

And we do.

Speaker 6

We do.

Speaker 5

And the last time we probably I like hugged my brother other brothers other than him, was like a funeral probably.

Unfiltered Conversations on Podcasting and Controversy

Speaker 7

You know I try to talk to my brothers pretty much all the time. They're pretty supportive, you know. I live here, yeah, we all live here. We we all moved to Oklahoma sometime in the 80s. I went back to Memphis and kind of finished growing up there and the rest of them all stayed here, and then after I got out of the Navy, I decided that I wanted to come back to Oklahoma.

Speaker 4

So, yeah, yeah, I don't think I've really ever hugged our brothers.

Speaker 5

I don't.

Speaker 4

Maybe Eric, just to make him feel weird.

Speaker 6

That's why I hug your dad.

Speaker 4

And then to make him feel weird, he falls over. And then I hug Eric or something, and then he'll cut my balls or he does something he like hump drive.

Speaker 5

He makes it uncomfortable.

Speaker 2

Just like do, like hug.

Speaker 5

I think the last time he hugged me was like when Ollie died or something. We were in the Red River.

Speaker 4

That's the last time.

Speaker 5

Last time, yeah, grandma's funeral or something that was it. I don't know if I've ever hugged Daniel. To be honest, you hugged. Well, I honestly don't know if I've ever hugged him.

Speaker 6

You hugged, daniel. I think he's going to hug his wife.

Speaker 5

Oh, I might have at the wedding.

Speaker 4

And I only know that because there's a picture. I think Dan secretly is a big softy.

Speaker 5

Yeah, he's that mom and dad's all the time. He was there earlier when I got the kids off and I was like you are obsessed and have no life.

Speaker 6

Well, and I mean like His wife, courtney is a super softy.

Speaker 4

She tries not to act like it, just like Dan I think.

Speaker 5

That's why they're such a she's very sweet person.

Speaker 6

But yeah, oh, but like oh, she's the biggest softy, like feeling Z person.

Speaker 5

I kind of see that, but she's still kind of like tough to.

Speaker 6

Oh, she's super tough, but like she and I growing up together.

Speaker 4

I think she's fake. Tough Come at me.

Speaker 5

Courtney yeah, you all got fight.

Speaker 7

She doesn't listen Now you have to worry about her listening.

Speaker 6

She don't know, she doesn't.

Speaker 7

It's okay so not not to change the subject on you guys, but you know what made you get into the podcast.

Speaker 4

The Pandy.

Speaker 7

And yeah.

Speaker 4

so you know, even a stand up kind of was dead there for a while during the lockdown and I needed a. She's having a problem.

Speaker 6

I got it. I got good. I'm entertaining Taylor and I needed to create a valid.

Speaker 4

So we did. We made some stupid pandemic supply run videos that are on my YouTube. We did that Tiktok, yeah. And then it was like, hey, let's, let's try this podcast shit out, just just for an outlet and Something to do. Yeah, and we started it and like this is fun. I really, really liked it and I can say whatever the fuck. I want, to say yeah and uh and put it out there, and if you like it, cool, if you don't, that's cool too.

Speaker 5

It's not everybody's slice of cake, um yeah, like somebody was like you don't even tell jokes on the and I was like have you listened to any other comedy podcast? Because they don't just tell jokes, though, like they're just funny people Like yeah you can talk about normal stuff and it'll be a comedy podcast, yeah.

Speaker 7

I mean, if you really look and I have no idea how he got to where he's at but with Joe Rogan I mean yeah right, he's got his own like comedy club.

Speaker 4

Yeah, yeah, I mean comedy, mother shit His show.

Speaker 7

Some of his shows are great, some of them are like you know. I'm just going to have to turn it off now.

Speaker 6

Yeah, yeah, I mean also because they're 19 hours long.

Speaker 5

Yeah, they're very long. There's so much range of like, exactly.

Speaker 7

Because he doesn't really go in it with any objective.

Speaker 5

No, they just go in it and have fun.

Speaker 4

That's what I want to do.

Speaker 7

And he's an owner.

Speaker 4

And that's what I kind of. When I first started it I was heavily editing everything. I was between, like conversations, any dead space I was kind of trimming out just to, in my mind, make it. You just got to zone him out, yeah.

Speaker 9

Taylor is strong. I'm a mom blotter.

Speaker 7

I think she's about to appear, or something, over here.

Speaker 9

Let's go full throttle.

Speaker 6

Can any clubbies?

Speaker 4

And then I would. I would also have like an outline that I would try to follow and you had like other comedians.

Speaker 6

Call me, call me.

Speaker 4

Call me.

Speaker 4

I would have other comedians on during like the, especially the first season of the podcast and some of the second Cause you were doing a lot of stand up and that was fun, really enjoyed it, made a lot of good relationships through that. But then I was like you know what I'm sure Joe Rogan say that he's like we hit the record button and we just go. I don't have a. I don't have it written down that I have these topics I definitely want to talk about and hit and it's structured. He might have kind of an idea of things he wants to talk about.

Speaker 7

I don't know. I've watched him. I don't think he has ideas on him, and he may not, and he just kind of goes.

Speaker 5

Just let's it be fluid, like whatever they are talking about.

Speaker 4

Yeah, and I was like you know what? They don't edit shit. That's why some of his podcasts last three- hours.

Speaker 6

Some are an hour and a half Five hours.

Speaker 7

Balazaro was five hours, but that's what makes them so interesting, though, is because you really, if you let go of all of those restraints and those are restraints when you start writing down. I want to stay in line.

Speaker 5

Yeah.

Speaker 7

Those are all restraints and you don't get to flow with, however, what feels good.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 7

And just talk about it. And I know a lot of people and they want to avoid politics.

Speaker 3

They want to avoid religion.

Speaker 7

They want to avoid this or avoid that. It's not genuine anymore because I remember growing up and I know I'm old, but I remember in the 70s and the 80s family could sit down and argue over their politics and then still go have dinner together. They could still go. You know, it didn't affect loving each other. Now today, oh yeah, two brothers argue over politics. My goodness, they won't talk to each other for years.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 7

I'm like what happened.

Speaker 4

And it's like you're, and sometimes it's even a disagreement over the politician they support Right, and it's so stupid because one that most politicians are so fucking out of touch with how?

Speaker 7

they don't know All.

Speaker 4

Americans live their life. They don't. They don't fucking care about you. They don't. So why fight each other over these people that are out of touch with reality? Completely. It's just so dumb.

Speaker 7

All of it and it gets so frustrating. That's what I like about that particular podcast, and I've enjoyed very much being here, because there's no, there's no boundaries. No, there's no restraints.

Speaker 4

No, I had a buddy of mine, a comedian, john McMillan, on and that was a great episode.

Speaker 6

You got to go listen to that one. It's awesome.

Speaker 4

He's a black comedian, and so we we make it funnier. John would say. John would probably say yes.

Speaker 6

Yes, john, would tell you absolutely, my melanin makes me funny.

Identity, Genealogy, Family History Discussion

Speaker 4

But we we talked about race relations. We talked and one of my best sound bites I have was a conversation we were talking about and we were talking about how old white men think all black people have it as easy as what they see on, like MTV Cribs, like why are you all having such a hard time? I see all over here and you've got mansions and everything.

Speaker 7

And I said no, you got to realize. It's that. Plus, most of the old white dudes are all sitting around watching football, basketball and baseball.

Speaker 6

Right, so they're seeing it.

Speaker 7

All they see is millionaire.

Speaker 4

So then I say as an old man, I go well, me, me and him got something in common. We both have 14 whips and John lost his mind.

Speaker 6

In a good way. He thought it was the funniest thing he had ever heard.

Speaker 4

And you wouldn't have those natural conversations and natural reactions if we were even censoring ourselves because we don't want to wade into the waters of being somewhat controversial.

Speaker 7

I'm controversial all the time.

Speaker 4

OK, who cares, Like I don't. I don't care whether someone is black, brown, purple, green. Love someone of the opposite sex, love someone of the same. I don't care. Yeah, it's we're just people.

Speaker 7

Let's talk when it comes to all the you know, cancel culture, whatever you want to call it the wokeness. I can suck some of it gets so stupid Some of it does. There's common sense things. Ok, there's a lot of stuff about banned books today. Oh, don't. Oh, man, man man, they're not banned, they're just being common sense of where they should be seen and where they shouldn't be seen.

Speaker 6

Yes, whether it's common sense, whether an eighth grader should read should be a fifth grader, be exposed to this theme in fourth grade, or if it's something that they should not be exposed to until they're older and have an awareness about where, where the exposure comes from.

Speaker 2

Yeah.

Speaker 7

And versus where it shouldn't come from. Yeah, and just use common sense.

Speaker 5

There's not a lot of common sense.

Speaker 7

There is no, the same argument could be made about, oh, gun control. People will lose their mind over. There's such thing as common sense. You want to know what?

Speaker 4

drives me crazy? What grinds my ears.

Speaker 6

What grinds my ears?

Speaker 4

Let me tell you what grinds this old white bald dude's beard right here? Listen up, it's getting hate. Is when these motherfuckers started saying minor attracted persons, oh dude that's disgusting Maps.

Speaker 2

It's basically an excuse to be a pedophile.

Speaker 5

So it's just a minor attracted brain can't even round around that so fucking gross right, they tried to.

Speaker 7

They tried to attach themselves to the alphabet.

Speaker 6

Yeah To LGBTQIA plus.

Speaker 7

I don't even try. I don't even try because I will mess it up. Yep, I don't, I will be offensive.

Speaker 5

It's like a whole. Somebody told me they were Polly and I was like I mean multiple wives or husbands. Ok, it's kind of what I thought, but it was like Polly, like well, that's different Open relationships.

Speaker 7

Polly is actually marrying multiple people.

Speaker 4

And I think they get it confused. They get they don't even know what they're talking about.

Speaker 7

Well, I'm probably well and.

Speaker 6

Polly Amorous is you are in committed relationships with multiple people who are also in committed relationships with each other. So it's like and that's if we, if we were in a you know what they call them back in the day fucking orgy, orgy orgy.

Speaker 2

No, they're committed orgy.

Speaker 6

They love each other and they live together.

Speaker 7

I love history and that's actually his.

Speaker 5

I love orgy.

Speaker 6

I love orgy.

Speaker 7

Even in tribal groups, women were allowed to have more than one husband, multiple husbands.

Speaker 5

I want to be in that tribe.

Speaker 2

I was saying, that would be easy, I want to die.

Speaker 3

This is a miracle. You dumb son of a bitch, exactly.

Speaker 7

You know what is it. One of the funny things is in you keep calling yourself an old white dude. People have a hard time knowing what I am.

Speaker 5

I'm bringing up what breed.

Speaker 6

Are you? What are you?

Speaker 7

I can make a break, let me get to the.

Speaker 4

What breed? What is it? The Aka, the Aka.

Speaker 5

Aka, aka, aka, aka.

Speaker 6

Aka.

Speaker 7

Aka Aka. Aka is close enough, also known as that's right, but you know people will like. Well, what are you? And I'm like man, you figure that out. That's such a weird question to ask people. I get it asked all the time, I bet.

Speaker 5

Yeah, cause you can go a few ways.

Speaker 7

I feel like Go ahead, I'm not going to give it a try, guess it.

East Palestinian, oh I am Don't say those words Pakistanian.

Speaker 7

I am a mixture of Irish and Scottish Okay.

Speaker 5

Native American and black.

Speaker 6

Yes, there you go. So I was good, I really, truly was going to guess Native American from your, from your facial structure, that was my guess.

Speaker 4

My thing is what percentage of black? Because we had a person on this 13 specifically.

Speaker 7

Okay, damn.

Speaker 5

You know the number.

Speaker 7

From my DNA. You know the number. I took a DNA test Good.

Speaker 6

Yes, turns out 100%. That's it Wait.

Speaker 7

Because it was extremely. When I took the DNA test and I got it back, I was like, wow, I'm black.

Speaker 6

I'm not. No, there's no Mexican, he's not, he's not any, he's not, he's not, he's Damn.

Speaker 7

That's part actually wasn't the part that shocked me. Yeah, I, I can't tell you how many people say, hey, white dudes can't have a round head. Yes, okay, you know.

Speaker 6

It's rare.

Speaker 7

Most of them have flat spots.

Speaker 6

Well, that's also why I would have guessed native.

Speaker 4

Truly Because that's a Blendian.

Speaker 6

Bl Blative Babe, blative oh.

Speaker 2

Oh Whoa.

Speaker 9

Whoa.

Speaker 6

Careful Whoa Hold on.

Speaker 4

I should have done this. I should have.

Speaker 2

Oh, no, see now it's too late and it's not fun anymore. It's too late. I didn't do it, god.

Speaker 7

That's stupid. Violent, that's stupid.

Speaker 9

I just become offended, you're now part of the family that and the Broncos.

Speaker 4

Hey hey, hey, hey.

Speaker 10

It's the only bottle once we have Listen. Fight, fight, fight.

Speaker 4

I was afraid it was going to make my brother's face like shit.

Speaker 6

We're not. We're not proud of it, we're just stuck with it. See, I see you here with your cowboys and that's fine. I'll let you in the house. I'm used to disappointment, so am I. I'm very clearly used to this. I'm pointing at the cooler.

Speaker 2

I'm not used to it.

Speaker 3

I wasn't going to say anything.

Speaker 4

It's onto a new level. Hold on everybody.

Speaker 3

You know, I could fire a game. You can probably throw it away.

Speaker 7

I mean I saw you pointing and I was kind of hoping.

Speaker 3

He was like God die. She does not hold back, she hates him it was cold.

Speaker 6

I'm with him because I like his sister so much. Each is pretty cool.

Speaker 7

For me. My shock when I took the DNA test was the Scottish and the Irish. I wasn't expecting that.

Speaker 5

I can see with a beard. I just didn't see it, that was Scottish at all yeah, I was like wow.

Speaker 4

I'm a quarter Osage and cow.

Speaker 7

My family hid the Native American. Like my last name is Shavers, but it's actually not, it's Chavis.

Speaker 5

Oh Chavis.

Speaker 7

They ran out of the hills of Tennessee and they changed their name to hide their Native American history.

Speaker 6

What tribe?

Speaker 7

Cherokee. Oh, okay, and they hid it and I've actually, after I took the DNA test and I started doing my genealogy and I started doing my research and I spent. That's a rabbit hole.

Speaker 6

Oh.

Speaker 7

I know you can get lost. I was sitting at my laptop at eight o'clock at night and I look up, and at seven AM the next morning and I'm like whoa.

Speaker 7

I lost a whole day yeah, like 12 hours just gone. Because if you get on ancestry and you know when I'm going to know, I'm getting way off topic. There's no topics here. There's this little leaf will pop up because you put in known information, people that I know I'm related to. So I put all that in and I start filling in grandparents and uncles and people that I know I'm related to, and a leaf will pop up and I'm going to say suggestion. So you go over there and you go over here and then when your DNA is done and it's uploaded, it'll say you're related to this person, but it's only, you know, a 0.1%. But then over here you'll have another one pop up and it's like a 10% or so on and so forth.

Speaker 5

And then you go all over the globe.

Speaker 6

That's wild.

Speaker 7

All over the planet.

Speaker 6

Then were they all, were they all distant?

Speaker 7

18,000 people that I have a DNA relationship to, I'm like that's more than the population of the town I live in.

Speaker 6

That's a weird perspective, it is weird.

Speaker 7

Then I start going deeper down into it and I find a great grandmother. Oh, great, great, great grandmother. They had 33 kids. That poor woman, no, no, that's when you're walking through the field and one falls out. That's what I'm saying, cussing at you, pick up the plow bitch, like I guess I had a body, jetta Dyer, another one came out how is that physically possible?

Speaker 6

I don't know. I cannot even imagine.

Speaker 7

Because I started doing the research on her, because I said the same thing. Yeah, and it was 12. And but that was common in the 80s.

Speaker 6

I didn't even know how to braid my hair when.

Speaker 7

I was 12. That was common, but she had twins twice and triplets twice.

Speaker 6

No, and I'm like I would be sewing myself up. So I was like maybe.

Speaker 7

I was like maybe this is like a joke or something. This can't be real. Maybe this is wrong. It's like you know. Maybe the information is wrong. So you go back and you start looking at census and you find them and sure enough, they're all there.

Speaker 6

That's crazy. I'm like yeah now, that explains what if?

Speaker 5

we're related.

Speaker 7

That explains how so many people are related, because those kids go off and have kids and you're like tree, tree, tree, tree tree. Wow, how did that happen? And then, well, now, now you know, because they just kicking back on.

Speaker 4

I love spreading my seed.

Speaker 7

They needed. They needed people to take care of the farm. Back then they needed workers.

Speaker 5

I was about to say they were born.

Speaker 6

They had a birth, their workforce.

Speaker 4

What I think is weird is a human baby takes so long to like walk around and kind of be almost self-sufficient years right.

Speaker 6

Didn't we just say Daniel is still at a mom's house?

Speaker 4

So over 40 years, right, but then a giraffe, an elephant hits the ground in five minutes and they're standing up there, walking there. It's just crazy. They got to survive, you know we don't have to be, oh, we don't.

Speaker 6

That's the problem?

Speaker 7

We, everybody. You know that'll go down a whole evolution thing, but human beings are not designed to evolve very far.

Speaker 6

That's why fast, that's why we haven't.

Speaker 5

I can't imagine if we weren't the top of the food chain, though.

Survival Roles and Skills in Apocalypse

Speaker 4

Oh God, like if we be if Casey's out mowing the front yard and pterodactyl because I like. I like to empower women or lazy quality. She's mowing the yard.

Speaker 6

Are we going to?

Speaker 4

do yard, but I'm on the driveway like a groundhog, you know, watching the skies because we're not the top of the food chain Huh.

Speaker 7

You make a good. Well, that's how you have to be.

Speaker 6

But yeah, that's crazy. I mean, the only the only reason we are the top of the food chain is because we have a plane because yeah, we can make tools Do we? Well.

Speaker 7

I mean have you driven around and looked at some of the people out there today. I mean, if you listen to this podcast.

Speaker 4

Enough you may devolve. My brain is not fully developed, but others.

Speaker 5

I work with very smart, intelligent people, though you. Sometimes I'm like how is this possible?

Speaker 7

That's all relative.

Speaker 5

Oh, my boss too is like you're the smart.

Speaker 6

My boss is the smartest person I know. It's weird and there's times where he's talking and I'm like I have literally no idea.

Speaker 5

I've been in meetings, if they're talking and I'm like. I'm like, I'm a smart human.

Speaker 6

I'm like yeah, like I feel like I'm a smart person and intelligence, or two different things.

Speaker 2

How do you do? How do you delineate the two?

Speaker 7

You can be. You can learn to be smart, oh sure, but intelligence is something that you just have.

Speaker 6

So would you say that smart is is book book learning, learn it. You learn how to do it, and then intelligence is like what we would call street smart and common sense smart.

Speaker 7

No, because intelligence is the ability to survive and to grow old and to have the tools that you need to go on. There is a lot of people in this world, a lot of that wouldn't survive. Oh yeah, without intelligence around them. Sure, they don't want us, they want it to be, but without the intelligence around them they wouldn't survive at all, taylor I can't get my straw in my mouth.

Speaker 6

You were trying to drink out of her glass straw, so quiet.

Speaker 4

She's like Shane mute my body.

Speaker 3

Think about it. Hey, I saw it.

Speaker 7

So, if you think about it, though, you know if, if look at what's going on right now, we're on the, we're on the brink of a world war.

Speaker 5

Oh God, it's happening right now.

Speaker 7

So if nuclear weapons start flying everywhere, okay, and we go backwards, we lose this technology that we're so comfortable with right now.

Speaker 5

Yeah, no more target.

Speaker 7

Oh my God how many people are going to survive?

Speaker 5

Not a lot.

Speaker 7

Okay, that's intelligence I can eat dirt, you can be as smart as you want to be, but are you intelligent enough to survive?

Speaker 2

Yeah, I think that's.

Speaker 7

You know? You know how to learn how to hunt. Do you know how? Do you know how to acquire the skills that you need to survive when there's no one there to teach you? I think.

Speaker 6

I have a question for you and I need no input from you, dammit. I'm worried now, quick, quick question. What's going on here? Yeah, apocalypse level, right Like we are, we have no technology, we are in the survival mode, like you know, like what you just explained. Stop it, would you say. Then an intelligent person would be the forager, the Twig and Berry's person. The person trying to fight nuts and berries, I guess, is what we called it.

Speaker 7

Not Twig and Berry's that's different. I mean, I could but the intelligent person is gonna be the one that's gonna diversify in all aspects of it.

Speaker 6

You're gonna have smart people, so they're a locksmith and a forager and an escape driver and they can shoot a gun.

Speaker 7

They're gonna do whatever it takes to survive Me.

Speaker 5

Me what do you think she won't survive?

Speaker 4

No, we had a whole discussion that's causing.

Speaker 2

No, we all have a job?

Speaker 4

Okay, you gotta have people that can do a job.

Speaker 7

That's community. I'm talking about that single individual.

Speaker 4

Well say, that's different. Okay, when you have a, you gotta be by yourself.

Speaker 7

When you have a single individual. Individuals have to be able to come together within a community to survive, because not everyone is going to be intelligent enough to survive on their own.

Speaker 2

But everyone's a leader either, not everyone.

Speaker 5

There's a lot of followers, yeah, and that's the difference.

Speaker 7

That's okay. You can be smart enough to find the berries, you can be smart enough to find the fresh water. You can be smart enough to and those are all things that you may have learned over time. But you take that individual that has no one to help them, that's gonna have to do all of the things themselves. Got it. That's your intelligence of being able to get out there and survive on your own.

Speaker 7

Got it, being able to build that log home or that rock structure or whatever it is, and it's just you and no one else.

Speaker 4

You're still looking for berries? Shut the fuck up.

Speaker 6

I feel like I would be here.

Speaker 4

But you're also gonna learn how to pick locks.

Speaker 6

I am. So. Here's how this conversation happens. Why would you?

Speaker 5

need to pick locks in an apocalypse, Are you gonna break in Well?

Speaker 6

because, there's gonna be.

Speaker 7

Just bust the door down.

Speaker 6

Well, there's gonna be food storage somewhere, that's the door down, yeah, I guess, so it could be too loud. But what if I need to retain the integrity of the door for protection purposes? I'm not likely, just saying If it's zombie level, man, that's what I'm going with. I'm gonna assume it's zombies. So are you practicing picking locks? No, I need to. No.

Speaker 5

I want that stocking. It's on my list. I want a lock pick.

Speaker 4

Some doors could be hardened to where you couldn't kick them in, or so?

Speaker 6

here's how this conversation starts. The pandemic hit and we are sitting around just the two of us for far too long, and we're drunk.

Speaker 7

Too many conversations.

Speaker 6

Probably, and it was okay. So the world is ending right. Because also their mom was very sure that the world was very legitimately ending, everything was going to shit right. So we were like, okay, so what's the plan? So we know that we would rendezvous out at the acreage at their parents' house, because they have land and an armory, basically. And so we said, okay, so what kind of community are we building? Right, like, who has what job? How are we fortifying the area? Like, what are we doing? So it's all you know walking dead type talk. And so we were trying to sign everybody jobs Daniel's security. Daniel is on security. Shane is Mom's the chef, also on security. Mom is the armorer. Mom operates all the bullets and the things. Who's gonna feed us, nicolette?

Speaker 6

Oh okay, nicolette's the chef. You are the medical person, because you know how to do some things that I don't know. Well, courtney is the archer. I think it's what we said. She's gonna be a hunter. She's a good archer. And so we were going through everybody, like who is doing what? Who's taking care of the kids? Not me, it's also Nicolette. We had jobs for everybody. I'll plan that. And Eric, yeah, nicolette and Eric are the home school. And so I looked at my husband who, up until this very specific moment, I thought he thought of me as a very kid, a very capable, strong, independent, smart woman.

Speaker 7

Got yourself in trouble, oh did he ever?

Speaker 6

It's been years and I will not let it go. I refuse, okay, okay, and he's. I said, well, what job am I gonna have? And he looks at me dead in the eyeballs and says, well, you're gonna be the nuts and berries girl. I said the fuck did you just say to me, son of a bitch? Yeah? I said what do you mean? And he said, well, I mean we gotta be able to Go get the pine cone, go get like nuts and berries that we can eat when we're like on the road. Oh, because their dad is also gonna be. He's our gardener, our farmer guy, like he can plant all the things. What a culture, thank you. There's gonna be a lot of weed on our plot, I know that for sure. But I said I'm sorry, that's all I can do is get fucking nuts and berries. I was so mad and I ruminated on it for days, days and days and days.

Speaker 7

You still did that shit I was so pissed off.

Speaker 4

We're driving out to the acreage, for like a cookout or whatever she's like I can fight, I can see good and we're driving around. She's driving, I'm driving, I can drive a car. And all of a sudden she goes. I don't wanna be the damn nuts and berries girl.

Speaker 3

That's a berries girl. I was so mad. I was so mad at him.

Speaker 4

I said what else do you think you're gonna be able to do? I don't know, god. She's like. I'm the driver and I said what the fuck?

Speaker 6

The driver. I can be the yes, I can be the tactical driver.

Speaker 4

I said no, that's me, no, and she's like you can't be the tactical driver because you're also the marksman. And I was like no, that's why I'm the tactical driver, so that I'm a little protected that way, when accuracy long range marksman is needed.

Speaker 5

I don't think you can drive a shoe at the same time. That's what I said.

Speaker 4

Well, that's not what that's for.

Speaker 6

I'm just saying I need another skill, because here's the thing If I am lost out of the community, anybody else can pick up the nuts and berries duties.

Speaker 2

I needed to be indesensible so that I could be protected.

Speaker 6

I needed to be needed. We have to protect Taylor because she's our medic. We have to protect Shane and Dan because there are our shooter, shooters right. Like everybody else needs to be protected. The nuts and berries girl doesn't need to be fucking protected.

Speaker 7

Your forage, you stepped in.

Speaker 6

No, I'm so mad. Yeah, you did so. I'm still fucking mad. I'll stay a fight with the forager.

Speaker 7

And I said fine, protect the forager.

Speaker 5

It is a necessary participant, of course.

Speaker 4

And I said okay, fine, You're also gonna be our lock picker.

Speaker 6

Oh, okay, okay, and for some reason that settled me. I was like okay, pick locks, did you know how to do that? No, no, I'll learn. I use a body test. That's a movie I watch Nancy Drew. Okay, we're on paper close.

Speaker 7

How did you survive that?

Speaker 4

Jeff, I'm a man.

Speaker 5

I'm a man all 40.

Speaker 4

Just hold true to my values. You know what I mean. I empowered her with learning how to pick locks. That we haven't accomplished yet.

Speaker 6

I'm waiting for it to be in my stocking at Christmas. The kid.

Speaker 4

I need a kid. No, I'm going to. Yeah, you have to no, it's gonna be a lock picking kid and like different little padlocks.

Speaker 5

I better hone up on my medical.

Speaker 6

And then a forging like a field gun Feeny-pee-ak.

Speaker 7

Somebody needs to learn to make beer for you guys 100%.

Speaker 6

we do, I'll do that no.

Speaker 5

I won't. Why are you taking on somebody's roles? I?

Speaker 6

won't do that, that'll be David.

Speaker 5

Yeah, because he can't really walk. I mean, it's true, he can't.

Speaker 2

You don't need a farm hand.

Speaker 5

We can't decide who of them can pick crops Perfect.

Speaker 7

Well, I can tell you, when it goes to shit, I'm going to have a hard time deciding whether or not I want to be back a part of society again, because I'm okay out in the middle of nowhere by myself. What about your wife? I love her, but I could still go. I love her butt.

Speaker 5

Oh my God, I could still go be by myself there we go, you're going to be like Daryl.

Speaker 6

Dixon, that's right.

Speaker 5

I don't need nobody or no one.

Speaker 7

That would be the only thing. The only thing that would keep me in a group is to protect my family.

Speaker 5

Yeah, no, otherwise One daughter.

Speaker 6

No three, three daughters.

Speaker 7

Two boys.

Speaker 6

Do you guys have 33 kids?

Speaker 9

OK, yeah, I was going to say I see a trend here. It's hereditary, You're a turtle.

Speaker 6

You're a turtle.

Speaker 5

No, I'm a turtle, I get it OK.

Speaker 7

Makes sense, you sure? No, I'm Mexican. I've been married twice.

Speaker 4

I'm just here, that's all right. Sorry, whoa. Now we're going to get married.

Speaker 6

That's all right. It's a good ride, guys. It wasn't me.

Speaker 7

Chalker who went down that road.

Speaker 6

Me, I did it Me. It wasn't me Chalk baby.

Speaker 7

I've been married twice and I had two kids my first go round and three my second.

Speaker 5

It's awesome, so you can't be so locus.

Speaker 7

No, I can't cut. My 16 year old daughter wouldn't allow me, no matter why. So she's got a symbiotic relationship.

Comic Book Podcast and Apocalyptic Adventures

Speaker 6

I'm glad you said symbiotic, not parasitic, because that would have been different.

Speaker 2

Oh no, no, yes, sometimes.

Speaker 7

So, I love it a day.

Speaker 6

What do you need?

Speaker 4

I was looking for the. I do have an idea for a post apocalyptic movie.

Speaker 6

Oh, I don't know where the I don't know where it is, but yeah, you can tell me.

Speaker 7

Is it a comedy?

Speaker 4

Yeah, yes, yes and no. Yeah, I mean drama parts of it.

Speaker 7

Oh man, it's stupid, it is fucking good, but that would make that makes the best one.

Speaker 6

It is good you know that makes the best it's called a mouthful of vengeance.

Speaker 4

No mouthful of voyage voyage, mouthful of voyage. What are you looking for? I I actually had a guy make me a movie poster of mouthful of voyage.

Speaker 9

I already have the movie poster and it is fucking

Speaker 6

insane. Where's the script? And it was birthed out of this podcast.

Speaker 5

No, it's it the script is actually one of the podcast episodes where we just Hunter boy improv this whole fucking movie.

Speaker 4

It's fantastic. I I can't even remember what all we talked about.

Speaker 6

Season one.

Speaker 4

But I'll try to find the image as we're talking and I'll pull up the movie poster.

Speaker 6

There are people that eat toenails. Yeah, I, oh, I'm also the bird whisperer, that's right.

Speaker 4

And that's what we can be.

Speaker 6

We can train you and I can train Ravens, you and me, taylor Gross.

Speaker 5

Gross. Yeah, ravens, whatever, I just smart birds, ravens, like really around us. Yeah, we're going to make one. It grows a lot.

Speaker 4

The alertist.

Speaker 6

Animal research Right Can we make?

Speaker 4

one, rangers and things, and the forge for you Crows, well, they'll bring you little surprises, shinies. Yeah, but it was, it was insane, it was so funny.

Speaker 6

You have too much free time, yeah.

Speaker 5

I definitely do.

Speaker 6

So you did ask why the podcast right here?

Speaker 5

It is. This is why other podcasts. There's this first podcast.

Speaker 7

The what.

Speaker 5

Have you ever done a podcast?

Speaker 7

Now I've done radio shows and TV shows. This is my first podcast.

Speaker 2

Kiss the fan.

Speaker 6

Kiss the fan I don't know, do I love Just one of four?

Speaker 4

point one Was that in? Was that season one or two One, I think? I think it was one, huh.

Speaker 5

Back in the day.

Speaker 4

Back in the day.

Speaker 7

I actually wanted to start a podcast because I'm a huge comic book nut.

Speaker 6

Oh yeah.

Speaker 7

I would love to dedicate a podcast just to comic books.

Speaker 5

That'd be cool. I don't know anything about comic books, so I can't be on your podcast.

Speaker 6

I was going to say I know nothing there it is oh my god, is that an? Apocalyptic coming of age story.

Speaker 5

Yeah, that's me when nuts and berries girl, you nuts and berry girl, what? Are those red things feet.

Speaker 6

Yes. There we go Tonell's long toenails yeah.

Speaker 7

I was going to say how did you get Colonel Sanders?

Speaker 6

And Shane looks like Colonel.

Speaker 4

Sanders. Oh, never mind this guy that looks like Colonel Sanders. He plays Colonel Sanders in commercials and during the post apocalyptic time he became like mayor of this crazy ass town and so that's how the apocalyptic Colonel Sanders came about. And then that priest under the cell phone there. So the cell phone. Only one person has the cell phone that still works. He's the only person in the world with a working cell phone and it's got. It's loaded with different videos from Vine that was like the precursor to like TikTok, and on those vines is that priest doing some not so good things with kids, and so that priest is hunting down the person with that phone. And we got the white powder donuts. That's what I'm guarding. I found like an old hostess or little Debbie factory and took all the snacks and a lot of white powder donuts.

Speaker 5

Are they gonna expire, bro?

Speaker 4

No, no, they don't. We put so much shit in that stuff. They don't, really don't expire.

Speaker 7

It's gonna be like a Twinkie. I mean yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5

And so. Who's the horse?

Speaker 4

So Logan gets captured.

Speaker 5

Is he in the back, my youngest son? I can't see that Logan gets captured.

Speaker 4

He's in the town being held hostage kind of hostage, but a prisoner of the town, where the Colonel Sanders guy is and Logan's like their entertainment. He's like a dancer.

Speaker 6

Like a jester, yeah.

Speaker 4

And then Hunter and Justin and Emerson come upon this town and they find out that Logan is being held captive in this town and there's something with how the Ravens or the crows are sending messages and the boys attach a note to one of the crows and it flies it back to us. How they know where they are. Is they found an old Rand McNally road Atlas?

Speaker 6

Because of course those are going to smite the apocalypse, yeah, and so anyway, we get word of where they are.

Speaker 4

I come charging in with the horse and I'm pulling. I end up somehow pulling Hunter and he's on a razor scooter. He's like a chariot behind my horse and we use it as a weapon and he can whip around and use the razor scooter to knock out people's shins. Yeah, it's real fucking dumb.

Speaker 6

And they have real long toenails.

Speaker 4

Yeah, so you see the person riding the other person in the top right. Yeah, they harvest people's toenails and they like eating toenails, and so everybody in that town doesn't have toenails. They let them grow out and then they pull them out.

Speaker 2

And then they eat them like chips and salsa.

Speaker 7

So much you know. I'm glad you asked that.

Speaker 6

We're Edibles, so are you sure you want him to ride a horse?

Speaker 5

Yeah, I feel like Edibles or Hayawaskar Peotecaina.

Speaker 4

I don't think I did it that much justice on that. I have to find what episode that is, but oh my, it was one of my favorite ones because my You're, so I love the. Amparov, number one, and I like it when my brain gets in that creative space. And I just went off.

Speaker 7

Create. That's a void somewhere in there. I don't know if that's a creative space. It may not be it may not be.

Speaker 5

It's a dark space.

Speaker 2

It just pretty dark. It could be like a black hole spot.

Speaker 4

Yeah, that's where the tumor is. Yeah.

Speaker 5

Fires off every now and then. Oh, they eat toenails.

Speaker 4

But it's great, it is hilarious.

Speaker 7

How did you come up with toenails? How do?

Speaker 4

you come up with that. I don't know how we did.

Speaker 6

I don't know how we did. I was not on that one, so I did not get to experience that unfolding in real time.

Speaker 7

I mean that's that's that's getting out there.

Speaker 2

He's a weird guy.

Speaker 4

We wanted it to be like like a cannibal community, but not like people.

Speaker 2

And so I think I just went with toenails because it's gross.

Speaker 4

I mean, we know people chew their fingernails and stuff, but toenails he's upset.

Speaker 6

He's upset, he's upset, he's upset.

Speaker 1

Kenny's not having a good time anymore, I'm going to tuck my feet back in, that's right, he's not y'all weird I keep shoes on bud.

Speaker 4

I do have some pliers around me.

Speaker 7

Let me hide my feet.

Speaker 4

So let's do something fun here.

Speaker 5

I need a drink.

Speaker 4

You need a drink, get a drink.

Speaker 6

I'm going to drink? Are you going to do that with or without your straw?

Speaker 4

I have some, so what we like to do is my tiktok feed is terrible sometimes.

Speaker 7

I can tell you that those are mild.

Speaker 5

Oh, I can only imagine what do you do when you find one.

Speaker 7

You have to just flag it or something you have to immediately remove certain ones and then other ones you have to flag that will go to a second person or whatever you know, depending on your level as a moderator. I wouldn't want to be at the certain you know backgrounds law enforcement, military, things like that get you into different categories Stuff, and some of them are violent. I would imagine and snuff films. You're watching stuff that's happening within just a few minutes of being uploaded.

Speaker 5

Ew, they're stupid too.

Speaker 6

No on the takey-talkies.

Speaker 7

Oh yeah. In America, in America, I'm not going to say those. Words, but I'm going to say this. There were certain groups, you know, like coyotes, that would use videos to communicate where they were going and who they were picking up.

Speaker 6

Oh my God, we got to tell Taylor what a coyote is Calliote?

Speaker 5

Smuggler. Like children's smuggler or adults.

Speaker 6

Or girls, all smugglers.

Speaker 7

So a lot of times coyotes go down to Mexico and will smuggle whoever pays enough over the border.

Speaker 6

Coyotes.

Speaker 5

Like give a white girl.

Speaker 7

No, they go down to Mexico and pick up whole families, groups, whatever, and bring them back across the border. Ew.

Speaker 6

Ew. Okay, don't start yet. I got to go pee. Well. Did all the listeners hear that Casey, it needs to go tinkle, so please don't start the next segment.

Speaker 7

I had to take my wife's water away from her on our road trip too. You get nothing. Well, we were on a motorcycle and we took off from Clairvon and rode all the way to Sturgis. And now Devil's Peak.

Speaker 5

Is that what it is? Devil's Tower.

Speaker 7

Sturgis is not that Devil's Tower. We went to Sturgis to the bike rally and then we went on from there to Devil's Tower and from there we went into Bear Tooth Mountain. So usually with the motorcycle you get to ride into your tank empty. So that's how often you stop, Otherwise there's no little stops in between.

Speaker 5

You got a bitch bar.

Speaker 7

Speaker 5

I'm good at guessing shit today.

Speaker 7

Nice. I've rode motorcycles often since I was little. My brother called me up and he's like hey, a buddy of mine has a buddy across the street from him that's got a motorcycle for sale. So we ran over there and it was a 2001 road star. It started life as like a 1600 and he the original owner was, which was this guy's brother. He did a whole all kinds of work to it, customized it and that's gorgeous bike. But he got sick. So the bike set for years and years and years. Then he passed away. Then his brother got the bike and it's set for another five or six years Just sitting in a garage. Wouldn't start, couldn't get it start sill and would our battery they weren't sure what it was had went bad. So it's like I'll take $1500 for it.
