SPEAKER_03 1:11

I know, yeah. And I I say it all the time like I care less. Yeah, talking about dirt bikes. Like, you know, it's it's fun. I like I like that we do it because I feel like I could come in here and I could just let everything out decompress for the week on a Sunday. You know what I mean? Like, oh, this has been bugging.

SPEAKER_01 1:30

Some things on air, some things not. Yeah, yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_03 1:34

No, I feel like it's a little bit of therapy session during the week.

SPEAKER_01 1:37

Yeah, I feel like we've gotten closer through this.

SPEAKER_03 1:38

Yeah, super close.

SPEAKER_01 1:39

You know?

unknown 1:40

Whoa.

SPEAKER_01 1:41

Duck. Like we're sitting next to each other holding a hand.

SPEAKER_03 1:44

We are. Yeah. If you if good thing it's not a video, yeah. Good thing it's not on YouTube.

SPEAKER_01 1:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:50

Sitting on my lap right now. Same mic. So well, you know what? I got uh I got the the one dirt bike-related topic, I get hypotheticals that I wrote down. Okay. You have you have an unlimited budget, right? And you're creating a team. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 2:13

Okay, unlimited team.

SPEAKER_03 2:15

Three riders. You have A rider, B rider, and just kind of a fill-in.

SPEAKER_01 2:18

Okay. All right. And our goal is to win.

SPEAKER_03 2:20

Yep. And then you're creating another team. It's a starter team. Okay. Same three riders, but budgets low, so you have to pick three riders that maybe or no, let's do let's do two fifth two 450 riders and a 250 rider.

SPEAKER_00 2:35

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 2:36

So unlimited team. You could go after anyone.

SPEAKER_04 2:40

Who do you want on your team to win?

SPEAKER_00 2:45

Gotta say jet, right?

SPEAKER_04 2:47

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 2:48

So jet, you're not gonna go Eli. Gonna go Jet. You're gonna go win.

SPEAKER_01 2:52

We're trying to win. Okay. No, I love Eli, but no. We're gonna win. I go Jet. And then are we are we considering all the other aspects? Because if you're 81. I mean, you want to go Deegan too, right?

SPEAKER_03 3:05

You want them on the same team.

SPEAKER_01 3:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 3:07

The same team. You don't think that's gonna hurt you?

SPEAKER_01 3:10

No, that's gonna be bad.

SPEAKER_03 3:11

Oh.

SPEAKER_01 3:11

They're gonna take each other out.

SPEAKER_03 3:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:14

Ah, because yeah, because the team, right? Yeah, right. A team, you gotta build a we're gonna let Hunter go. We're not taking Hunter. No. No.

unknown 3:25

No.

SPEAKER_04 3:25

No.

SPEAKER_01 3:26

Just the vibe isn't right. Okay, and this is my winning team.

SPEAKER_03 3:31

Your winning team.

SPEAKER_01 3:32

250s.

SPEAKER_03 3:34

Well, who should so you got oh Hayden? Well, and then 250s. Yeah, you get one 250 rider.

SPEAKER_01 3:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 3:43

That one's kind of hard because it could be anyone.

SPEAKER_05 3:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:50

Um I guess you gotta call over the the Kunan brother, dude. Sasha or whatever his name was.

SPEAKER_03 3:58

Wow. Off a one ride.

SPEAKER_01 4:00

Yeah. Okay. Off a one ride. One ride. Welcome, Justin.

SPEAKER_03 4:05

Yeah, I guess. Okay, so I didn't even think about my own question.

SPEAKER_01 4:09

Give me your own for that one, and let me think about the the other.

SPEAKER_03 4:12

Yeah, so I guess I guess you gotta go jet. I can't, I can't. I don't I just don't want to screw you, Deegan. I don't know. Yeah. I'm thinking like who's a solid B rider? That's gonna give you yeah. That's gonna give you results. Like he jet's gonna win. Second place is gonna get you. J Cooper. Yep. JP. J Cooper. And then my 250 rider. Gonna win? Dude, it could be anyone. Ah, dude, I guess I right now. Seth if he's healthy. If he's not on the ground.

SPEAKER_01 4:50

Yeah. And then like I think that and you wouldn't be on a cowie, so Seth would be fine. Yeah. What what team would what would you run? Uh I think.

SPEAKER_03 5:02

Uh yeah, I'm on.

SPEAKER_00 5:04

Yeah? Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 5:04

I want to say Honda. Well, no, if if Jets. I'll satisfy you to say Honda. Yeah. I was thinking of what I would want to run, but no, I'm gonna go Honda. I'm gonna go Honda.

SPEAKER_01 5:14

Yeah. I think that for my other team that you were saying. So this is low budget, just like an entry scale.

SPEAKER_03 5:22

Low budget, like, dude, your you know, your your precision automation, you know, you came across some money. You know what I mean? And you're gonna start a race team.

SPEAKER_01 5:32

And but it's like foolish decision. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 5:35

Yeah, you're gonna throw you have enough money to light on fire.

SPEAKER_01 5:38

Yeah. Yeah. So I'm looking for cheap guys that I think will be good.

SPEAKER_03 5:43

They might get, you know, your electrical company on screen once in a while.

SPEAKER_01 5:48

So like is Malcolm Stewart a cheap guy?

SPEAKER_03 5:50

You're gonna have to throw some money at Malcolm. Like, that's a big, that's a big cast. That's a factory guy. Like, we're talking about guys that are like on the cusp. Like a good guy would be like right there.

SPEAKER_01 6:04

Like Rodbell.

SPEAKER_03 6:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 6:08

Hmm.

SPEAKER_03 6:11

Like I I feel like my 250 guy, even though like a Nick Romano, dude, like he's yeah, he's on a factory team right now, but dude, he's shown shown a lot of yeah, he's just doing really good right now.

SPEAKER_01 6:27

Alright, obviously I'm gonna take Christian Craig.

SPEAKER_03 6:30

Okay, that's yeah, that's a really good pick.

SPEAKER_01 6:33

He's cheap. Paige will be there.

SPEAKER_03 6:37

Or you know what? Um like either or Carson Munford for 250. You know what I mean? Like he's not a factory guy, but he's been on screen lately.

SPEAKER_01 6:50

Well, yeah, there you go. I would probably take freaking Bloss because he's tall. Oh, that's that's a solid choice. Craig and Bloss.

SPEAKER_03 6:59

But is he a factory guy?

SPEAKER_01 7:02

Oh, he is, huh? Yeah. I mean, do you consider Bait a factory?

SPEAKER_03 7:06

Yeah, Justin does.

SPEAKER_01 7:11

Dang it. Okay, Christian Craig. Well then, I mean, Savachi, he's not riding right now, but this is supposed to be non-modo talk.

SPEAKER_03 7:20

Non-moto.

SPEAKER_01 7:21

We're just deep into the the not very good guy, Jake Jack Chambers on my team. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 7:27

Anyways, non-modo. So Chandler comes over and he's he's doing my pad, right?

SPEAKER_03 7:35

And we're kind of talking, and I'm like, how'd you get into concrete, dude? He's like, he's like, dude, I honestly had no idea. I still, you know, like I'm like, how do you how do you just own a business? Like, dude, how do you make that leap of going into owning something? I I don't I don't know what I'm doing. And he said, that's the trick. None of us do, none of us know what we're doing, and but we'll figure it out. Like when he came across the concrete deal, he's like, I I had zero experience with concrete. Like, yeah, maybe I I ran the truck for my dad back and forth, but he's like, I just went on a limb and started, you know, started bidding jobs.

SPEAKER_01 8:16

And he saw a need, right? Like, dude, I need some I could do that, like we can figure that out.

SPEAKER_03 8:22

And he said that uh like he started setting up some stuff, and Rick Postmas told him, like, dude, you're doing that wrong. He's like, Well, then you show me how to do it. And then he never he showed up every day for the next four years, you know what I mean? Yeah, and so and then and as far as like the work aspect, he's like, dude, I don't want anything to do with like the physical labor. Yeah, no, that but I enjoy you know making sure the bolts are in the right spot and the forms are right and everything's precise, and which I wish I was more like that because I could care less.

SPEAKER_01 8:53

Yeah, they're in. Yeah, they're in.

SPEAKER_03 8:55

But but now now that I'm putting up the the red iron, it's like, oh yeah, that's gotta be on because it's gotta make my life hell.

SPEAKER_01 9:02

Cut and grind and yeah, reset a new one, and ugh.

SPEAKER_03 9:05

So he was talking to me. I'm like, dude, I I envy like someone like you or like Will, that you're you're you're you're the owner, right? And and like you built something. I like that. That's that's cool. I want to, and I'm so scared to just do that. And he's like, dude, I don't know how you do what you do. It's like he called it golden handcuffs, is what they got made by. You know, yes, I have a good job, yes, I have a retirement, but I'm on their dime, dude. And and like when they say jump, it's how high. Yeah, you know what I mean? And he's like, I like not going to work. If I don't have to go to work, I don't, you know, I could I make my own schedule, you know what I mean? And he and maybe you could correct me or him if he's wrong. He's he said he's in the position, like, say he goes out and breaks his leg, he's gonna be okay. Right? He's got guys now. He said, Well, where Williams at, he goes out, breaks his leg. It's like, oh shit, you know what I mean? I gotta you gotta figure it out. So he's he's big enough to where he he doesn't have to do it all himself, but he's small enough to where it's not such a burden on all these employees he has to take care of.

SPEAKER_01 10:29

Yeah, trying to float that payroll and everything, every yeah.

SPEAKER_03 10:32

And the whole golden handcuffs thing, dude. He he comes over to check on the pad, and I'm getting off work. And he's like, What are you doing? I'm like, Oh, I got five minutes left, dude. And then I'm like, like you said, dude, I gotta sit here for five minutes, and then after that, then I'm good. You know, I'm off. And then I was it's just like, man, envy of that. I'm like, dude, good for you guys. How do you do that? I I don't know how.

SPEAKER_01 11:24

You know, employees and different whatever, and it's like, man, just the the margins that you make aren't near as big as when it was just me out there doing it. Yeah, I don't have to go out there and do it, but like, man, I just it was just so much easier. Now I gotta run all these guys, and this is breaking, this guy's throwing a fit about this, and this guy's got this problem. So it's kind of funny because I mean, I'm sure that you've worked for somebody before or whatever, and like it looks like, or like when Chandler comes up on the on the job site, it looks like he ain't doing a damn thing, he's just watching, right? Or like have you ever had like a from the outside looking in, yeah. Or like have you had your like a boss or like, dude, you're not even doing anything, you're just bossing us around.

SPEAKER_03 12:02

Oh, yeah, but so so when he came over to do the concrete, yeah, I told him, like, dude, I couldn't sleep last night. I was I'm like, it's like Christmas to me. I'm so excited. He's like, Yeah, I couldn't sleep last night either, but for different reasons.

SPEAKER_01 12:16

Like he's like, Oh crap. He's like, Is that thing right? Is that right? Did they water? Is the mud gonna be ready? Are they gonna is the conveyor gonna work?

SPEAKER_03 12:23

Yeah, all the things, yeah, totally like from the outside looking in. Oh man, the boss just comes up, sits in his truck, doesn't do well. He's on the phone, he's bidding the next job. He's making sure his job's done.

SPEAKER_01 12:33

When the concrete's hitting the dirt, his job's done. Yeah, he's now it's their job. Now he's on the yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 12:39

And and to his credit, he wasn't just he would he didn't do that at all. He was around, like, hey, that's right, right? Before we get to this section, make sure this is good. We didn't bump this. This is hey, next time, let's improve in this area. He wasn't a dick about it, and he also said, too, he's like, and that's what I'm fighting too, is a lot of people in this valley just think I'm an asshole. Yeah, and I'm like, Yeah, you're not, Scott. You know what I mean? Like, you can be in ways, but people also don't know you. But no, you're much more you're you're not your dad. You are your dad to a point, but yeah, you know, you're able to communicate different, and so I guess that kind of follows us everywhere on who we are and our family and for better or worse.

SPEAKER_00 13:24

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 13:25

So I lost my train of thought on what he hit he was going with that.

SPEAKER_01 13:30

Yeah. The one nice thing is like you get to shut your phone off at the or you're I mean, I guess you're still kind of on call sometimes, or no? Like when your five minutes it was up. My weekend, I'm I'm done.

SPEAKER_03 13:42

But like, yeah, I'm on call sometimes during the week. Stuff hits fan, I gotta go. Yep. And that so I brought that up to my dad. He's kind of said the same thing. Like, yeah, we're we have these golden handcuffs. However, say Chandler goes out of town, then he's worried, shoot, are my guys I'm I'm off doing my thing, but in the back of your head, hey, are they doing the right thing? Do I screwing this all up? Yeah, do I need to get work? This or that? I don't know. Is that is that something? Hey, you went on a cruise for a week or whatever it was. Were you thinking about work?

SPEAKER_01 14:19

Luckily, we were pretty slow, and I knew that Brock was laid out, like he was fine. But yeah, like this next week I was supposed to go up to Utah and then up to Idaho for the week, and then come back after the 4th of July. Well, now I'm sending my family and I'm working Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday next week.

SPEAKER_00 14:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 14:34

Because we got too much stuff going on. Brock can't handle it himself. At least that's what I think. And it's like, I'm sorry, like I gotta go deal with this. That's where it sucks because I don't have the employees, right? That I could line out and then I can just take my computer and go do work from somewhere else. But then Brock and I were talking about it today. It's like, dude, we work around a lot of union hands, and it's crazy the work ethic. He's like, so Brock said today, he's like, You think if I bid the jobs the same way I do, but we had union guys doing it and not us doing it, how much money do you think we'd make? I was like, I'd be surprised if we made 10%.

SPEAKER_02 15:12

Wow.

SPEAKER_01 15:13

And you know, so but like, okay, we didn't physically do any of the work, so that's still 10. Let's say it was a hundred thousand dollar job, right? So we get job costs us 90, we have 10 grand left over, that's what we profit, right? And so let's say we split that, so five grand a piece.

SPEAKER_03 15:30

That sounds miserable, not even worth it.

SPEAKER_01 15:33

And I've talked to a couple of different, not in the electrical side of things, but mechanical trade, where he's like, dude, 10% would be awesome.

SPEAKER_03 15:40

Why really?

SPEAKER_01 15:41

Yeah. Now, I mean, we're also talking like five million dollars worth, you know, of a job, like huge, much bigger numbers than I'm talking. But it's just like, holy crap, like, and I'm like, dude, if we don't make 50%, I'm pissed.

SPEAKER_04 15:54

Oh, wow.

SPEAKER_01 15:54

Like, you know, like we didn't do good, or we bid that wrong, or something happened that we're, you know, that we're not. So it's just different because, yeah, no idea what Chandler brings in, you know, no idea. But it if I'm doing it myself, one, I know that it's getting done right the first time. And if it's not, it's uh my own fault. So then I lose the money fixing it, but that's on me because I didn't do it right the first time. And I don't have to rely on it on anybody else. Now, like we had talked about the beginning of the year, right? My goal was to to to find some guys and and and that kind of thing. But it's like, dude, the trust aspect and and the that they're gonna go and work and not just stand there and talk, dude. We watched some of these dudes, they just stand there and talk for hours and don't do a dang thing. But you can't get mad at them because they're all union hands, you can't yell at them. And not even that I would yell at them, but it's just like Hey, you can do your job? Hey, buddy, like we gotta get so I feel like if like the boss man or the foreman or whoever was there was a a very motivating person and was good, and it kind of goes back to that we were talking in the last podcast about the the self-ownership, you know what I mean? Like take it on a self. I think that that kind of stuff would help, but dude, at this point, like I'm just gonna wait for the boys to get older and teach them, and you guys can run with it. But I mean, I am envious in a ways, like when a Chandler can go and go hunting for a week and a half down in Africa, and here I am like oh yeah, I can't even go to Idaho, like you know, like oh, I got all this work. But I don't know, it's good and bad. There's good, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 17:33

So when I met my wife, Kevin, he owned his own construction business.

SPEAKER_01 17:36

Your wife's name's Kevin.

SPEAKER_03 17:38

Her dad, Kevin.

SPEAKER_01 17:42

My wife, Kevin. Whoa.

SPEAKER_03 17:44

I I just assume everyone knows who Kevin is. My my father-in-law's name's Kevin. My wife's Elise.

SPEAKER_05 17:50

Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_03 17:51

Father-in-law, Kevin. He he's he owned his business and he was like you, you know, enough work for himself. Yep. He didn't really have a partner, kind of like you and Brock. Yeah. So a little more smaller operation, but same thing, dude. He anytime he'd hire someone, he's always worried about them. And then like costs come up. Like, I don't know, you get to a certain amount of numbers, and you gotta start paying insurance, and you gotta start paying workers' comp and all kinds of stuff. So we always kept it like enough for just him.

SPEAKER_01 18:23

And he did okay for himself.

SPEAKER_03 18:25

No, he did great. Like, but I I told him too, like, he he asked me. I met my wife when I was a senior in high school. So, of course, he asked me the question so what do you want to do? I'm like, Oh, I'd like to do what you're doing. You know, I'd like to own a business and work my work for myself. And he told me, You're well, you're an idiot.

SPEAKER_05 18:44

Well, that's stupid.

SPEAKER_03 18:46

I was like, oh, all right. And then I told him the other day, I'm like, yeah, this guy down the road from me, his he works at a mine, and his parent-in-laws own a construction company, like a big one, and they they're building the house and they're gonna sell it to him for a lot cheaper. I was telling him, like, yeah, when I was picking out my father-in-law, I thought I was doing the same thing. I thought, hey, this guy owns a construction company. You know, I'll marry this chick, I'll take over the company. And he's like, You can have it, dude.

SPEAKER_01 19:22

You can have it. He's like, dude, here it is.

SPEAKER_03 19:24

And now he's retired, but he he goes to work for people once in a while, but he'll take the summer off, and yeah, yeah. So I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 19:32

That's the dream right there. Summers off.

SPEAKER_03 19:34

So I don't I don't know. And then yeah, and then the reason I got into working in the mine, I worked, I seen how I enjoy running heavy equipment. It's a lot of fun, dude. I I you can make a lot of money at it, but I seen how hard my dad worked, you know, like he's really good at what he does, works hard, but now back into life, there's no he didn't, yeah, still working hard, didn't really invest in retirement. Where I feel like now I'm I'm investing now in my early 30s, or I have been since my 20s, and one day when I'm done working the mine, I'll be I'll be comfortable.

SPEAKER_01 20:17

I know, but and you'll be like Kevin, or like you're you'll just pick up little side gigs that you want to do, and you'll have your skin sear and your mini-acks, you'll dig trenches for days, and yeah, it'll be fun.

SPEAKER_03 20:27

I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 20:28

Yeah. So if you started something, I have no idea, dude. Dirt dirt water, right?

SPEAKER_03 20:33

Or don't maybe maybe I could be it could be something else. I don't I don't know. It could be like I had a guy I was working with, he started doing epoxy. Zero experience, but he went off saw a need, I guess, but he was like working his ass off and he invested all this money and then ended up just selling the company. But like, how do you go? I feel like some people are just naturally gifted and they just know how to make money, you know? Like just like riding a dirt bike and winning, you know. Some people are naturally good at just being up front and winning. Like, how do those people do it? I know how to go to work, I know how to do the do the job, I don't know how to do like what you're doing, you know, the bidding, the the payroll, the insurance, all the crap, you know, the building connections, that that would stress me out. Like, yeah, you you start a business, which it'd be cool, but then like you're worried about when's my next job coming.

SPEAKER_01 21:36

Yeah, and that's one of the things with the employees like oh crap, I gotta keep them busy. When you say winner, like just in life and work, like, dude, I feel like I always think of St. John. Like, dude.

SPEAKER_03 21:46

But that guy, yeah, yeah, dude. He worked his ass off.

SPEAKER_01 21:50

Gets it, dude. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 21:52

Freaking living in trailer, you know, not making nothing, borrowing money.

SPEAKER_01 21:58

To the top, baby. Got that one.

SPEAKER_03 22:00

One job, dude. And it just, and then he's just smart. Smart, so smart about it. Yep. Lived within his means, you know, got the hot wife.

SPEAKER_01 22:10

Dude, just killing it. Killing it. Winning.

SPEAKER_03 22:13

Yeah. Winning.

SPEAKER_01 22:15

Dude, I mean, all the building, the houses out here now, you know, like they have to have fire sprinklers in their place. Yeah. You can't find anybody with fire sprinklers. Start a fire sprinkler company. Get your little F card and go out there and do houses. 10 grand a pop. Right? You know.

SPEAKER_03 22:32

Dude, I was thinking like sm small. Like, dude, what if I just on the weekends clean pools? Oh, you want to be my pool boy? Yeah, go, boy. Go be your pool. You know? And then I could live out my fantasy, right? I'm out there, I'm cleaning your pool, and I got my shirt off, and William's like, oh, look at him.

SPEAKER_01 22:50

Yeah, your Jorge product shirt on. Your George shirt on. Oh my God.

SPEAKER_02 22:56

Oh look at him.

SPEAKER_01 22:59

Dude, I mean, and with your current job, I mean, you got three days off in a row. Like, dude, those are your pool days.

SPEAKER_03 23:04

Well, I even told Chandler, I'm like, dude, when when when I retire from the mine, I want to be like a Kenny Marshall. You know, I just want to go drive truck for you one day. He's like, I use you right now. I'm like, oh shoot. No, no, no, no, no, no. And then I was like, ah, well, maybe Monday's Tuesday, like, no, no, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. Yeah. Yeah. So I mean, because I wouldn't make no money. I if I wanted to go, because he's not going to pay me what if if I just worked overtime, I'd make way more money. So I don't know. It's it's I make decent money where I'm at. Would I like to start? I guess the reason I I think about that is I like like you think something for my kid.

SPEAKER_00 23:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 23:48

You know? Yeah. I like how your dad had his had his thing, and then when you were 12 to 14 taking the job, and then on summers you're working, it was a natural progression for you. I wish I could do something that like that for Destri.

SPEAKER_00 24:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 24:05

Arya, dude, I don't know what you want to do, girl. I love you, but you need to you need to find yourself a sugar daddy.

SPEAKER_01 24:13

I mean, she's only 11. She's got some time. I know, but yeah.

SPEAKER_03 24:16

Raising a daughter is so much I get stressed. Because what if she marries a loser, dude? That is my biggest fear in life. Like, Destri, I could get on him, dude. Hey, you're the man, you're you're the the the man in the world. Go make the money. Go make the money. You're the breadwinner. You know, be better.

unknown 24:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 24:39

Do somebody else's best.

SPEAKER_03 24:40

Right. Well, but Arya, like, and maybe, dude, maybe she's the breadwinner. Maybe she kids really smart and goes to college and does something way out of my opinion. Be a doctor, dude. That's why I keep telling her. Go be a doctor, but then we gotta get those grades up. Good lord.

SPEAKER_01 24:58

It's a little harder. Yeah, but we'll just get there.

SPEAKER_03 25:00

Yeah. So but like I don't know. I I see a this is me being shallow. But I see a lot a lot of women like, dude, you could do better than him. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean? Like, you're motivated. He's not, he sucks. Yeah. What do you see in that kid? Just and yeah, maybe that maybe that's me looking the outside, but like, yeah, man, you could do a lot better. So I don't know. But if my daughter just married a laydown, how do you handle that? How Ivy marries a guy that you just cannot stand, that you is not taking care of your little girl.

SPEAKER_01 25:43

She's got she's a grown-up, she makes her own choices. It's kind of funny because I I mean she's two, so it's it's hard to say. But in my head, like when she brings over a guy or whatever, like, well, I like that dude right away because she likes him. And I'm gonna make sure that I'm the type of dad who raises her that she's only gonna pick the kind of guy that I'm gonna approve of. Because the way that I treat her, she's only gonna go find somebody who does just as good or better. In theory. Okay, yeah. In theory. Yeah, right. Because I'm gonna like him until she doesn't like him and then I'll hate him. But uh, yeah, I don't know, dude. Like, like when you can see some red flags, like yeah, like like maybe one of the persons, maybe the guy that my one of my sisters married, you know, is like from the beginning, it was like, huh, uh, is nobody else gonna say anything? All right, okay, let's just see how this unfolds. But they wouldn't listen, she wouldn't listen either way, anyway.

SPEAKER_03 26:41

Yeah, so you gotta, and obviously everything works out for a reason, but like so I I I I always play this game in my in my head. I think Deshri, dude, you gotta go hit, you gotta go like that girl. Yeah, she got the family, she keep you in check. She's you know, she she would be good for you, for your personality, her little personality, your little personality. That'd be it'd be cute, yeah, you know what I mean. But it but then I think about I can't I think yeah, that would be good for Deshry, or she would be good for Deshree, but I cannot think of anyone for my daughter. Like, no one, you know, all these little boys, I'm like, oh like no, no, no, so it's funny. I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 27:24

Yeah, I mean, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

SPEAKER_03 27:27

So speaking of Desry, it was his birthday last weekend, got him a mountain bike, and and he loves it, you know.

SPEAKER_01 27:35

He's no, what else did you get him? And shorts and freaking spoiled dude.

SPEAKER_03 27:41

Oh, however, oh he he gets dad. He calls graphics details. Details, yeah. So, like if you get a graphics kit on your bike, dad, I like the details on that bike.

SPEAKER_01 28:06

Decals. That's funny. That's awesome.

SPEAKER_03 28:08

Yeah, no, details, yeah, details. But yeah, yeah, but decal, yeah, yeah. So he's like, Dad, and every sentence is dad. He starts like that. Dad, can you make details for my little dirt bike? I'm like, dude, I don't know how to make little details for that. Can you buy them? No, I don't know, dude. Just it's a toy dirt bike. Like, run what you got. And he said, Okay, but dad, can you put I want the pig's feet details like yours on here? I'm like, oh, okay. I think so. And then he then he's like, Well, I I want the details of the background. And I'm like, well, get a Sharpie and write a number. Yeah, and so he's like, Well, I want to look good. I'm like, okay, have your mom write it. And my she goes, she's got the Amaha. She says, What number do you want? 38. I was like, Oh my fine. What? Yeah, what the hell did you just say, boy? You know, yeah. And you know what she you know what she says? No, I'm gonna write 177 on the same. And I was like, just write 38, it's for a hating dignity.

unknown 29:21

Fine.

SPEAKER_03 29:22

And so she writes 38, but yeah. Nice, but anyway, so we got a we got a mountain bike, and he wants a Suron because it like he's wrote up, he's grown up with the stay psyches, and he's been, hey, when are you gonna fix my streater bike? You when you I'm like, I'm not never, yeah. It's expensive.

SPEAKER_01 29:38

What's wrong with it?

SPEAKER_03 29:39

Everything, dude. Okay, it needs a new the it's got a flat tire, it had the little 90 gear in there. Yep. I've replaced I don't know how many of those. Dude, he wore out the motor in it. The motor's like 800 bucks. I don't know, it's a lot of money.

SPEAKER_01 29:55

Those things are they're sweet, but they're not built.

SPEAKER_03 29:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 29:58

So we got a long way to go.

SPEAKER_03 30:00

So Leffler's like, dude, you gotta get a mountain bike, you gotta get my bike. So I end up buying his old mountain bike and Cheyenne's. And mountain bikes are expensive, dude. Uh-huh. But we get it, he's been riding around everywhere. We're learning how to we're learning how to shift on the bike and the 65. Perfect. So Dad, this is a mountain bike. I'm gonna go riding the mountains. Okay. Makes sense. We gotta go up early in the morning because it's hot, dude. No, I want to go now. So yesterday. I'm like, fine, dude. I'm like, can we wait till like six o'clock? Still, six is hot as hell. Yeah, we wait till six. We go up to trails. The yeah, uh the mountain bike trails. We do the warm-up loop the mile. Dude, bro, is like struggling. Smoked, smoked, we're like it's how are you feeling? That was fine, yeah, because we're going slow. Yeah, but my my quads, whoo, on fire. Nice, and just that first half mile. I'm like, all right, this will be a good workout. Yeah. But we that the first half of the mile, only one little mile loop, and uh it was all uphill the first half. Yeah, yeah. And he got off twice. I'm like, dude, you gotta stay on, you gotta pump your legs. Okay, and he gets on, he pump, pump, pump, pump, and we finally make it halfway when we take a break. It's like, oh, that was hard. I'm like, yeah, but anyways, we we go back down and we finish the the the loop. I'm like, hey, I know there's some jumps over here. You wanna go check it out? No, he smoked, it keeps spitting. I'm like, do you have any water? I'm like, no, dude, you should have brought he's like, okay, I don't want a mountain bike anymore, dad.

SPEAKER_01 31:44

This is bullshit.

SPEAKER_03 31:45

Oh, he he was like, we gotta come back tomorrow. I'm like, yeah, there we go. We we get I told him that was hard, right? Yeah, that was hard. And I'm thinking about think about if you came and you did that every day, or if you rode that a couple times a week. The first one sucks, but if we rode, if you rode consistently, your legs will get stronger, you know, you your cardio. Like, okay, and then think about how much easier it would be to ride a dirt bike. So he was this morning, he's like, hey, we gotta go ride mountain bikes, but we end up going to Vegas for hearing appointment. Yeah, but yeah, no, he's he's all about it right now.

SPEAKER_01 32:21

Nice. That's good, dude. You gotta teach him to do hard things. Yeah, sometimes it sucks.

SPEAKER_03 32:27

So Rhett's going to the middle school. You gonna get him on the mountain bike team?

SPEAKER_01 32:32

Let's see. That's he's gonna do baseball. So that's gonna kind of screw that up. But I mean, he might as well go if he has time, might as well go practice with him, you know what? At least go ride. I think it'd be cool.

unknown 32:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 32:47

It's one of those skills that or you know, it's just a good workout all the way around and do that for but speaking of workouts, dude.

SPEAKER_03 32:59

Oh, it's a little, it's a little smallish.

SPEAKER_03 33:22

Oh, you don't?

SPEAKER_01 33:23

SPEAKER_03 33:27

SPEAKER_01 33:51

Weren't you gonna run a marathon at one point?

SPEAKER_03 33:53

I was, and then I pushed that, or I I partially tore my PCL and then because I was I got up to convenient. Yeah. Yeah. And then I rode or I ran 10 miles on a my knee blown out. That didn't help. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:08

So no, that's out.

SPEAKER_03 34:09

No, I'd like to do one. I just I need to train for it. I don't feel like that's just something to go do. Oh, yeah, no. But the people do it. I ran two miles a day, and I think I'm ready for one. Are you? What's your pace? Not very good. No, it's probably better than mine. I ran two miles Monday, and when I was running all the time, like every day, I practically ran every day for a year.

SPEAKER_00 34:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 34:34

And my pace like a nine-minute mile, which was good. Now I'm struggling to do anything under 11, bro. It's like it's terrible. Like, oh, it's hot. I'm like, we ran nines that one day.

SPEAKER_01 34:49

Yeah, but like well, I guess that was one mile.

SPEAKER_03 34:51

Dude, a 10-minute mile pace. I'm like, holy shit, this is a lot faster than I thought.

SPEAKER_01 34:55

Why is the wind blowing my hair so much? Yeah. This is fast. I'm trying to see what my I did two miles and 16 and some change.

SPEAKER_03 35:06

Oh, yeah, that's pretty good. So you're like in the 30, 8, 8, 30. It was 150.

SPEAKER_01 35:11

Yeah, it's way too fast.

SPEAKER_03 35:13

Way too fast. When I say run, it's like a jog. I'll say jog.

unknown 35:17

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 35:19

Yeah, so you hit me up there today about what motivates me to work out and stuff.

SPEAKER_03 35:25

Yeah, because I'm struggling, dude.

SPEAKER_01 35:26

I was yeah, we can't find anything. No, that's what I I just seems like a goal too long is too far away. You need like a short-term goal.

SPEAKER_03 35:35

I need something. I don't know. I I'm so ADHD right now. I I start one project project. Like I'm working on the shop, and I'm like, no, I need to prep my driveway to do concrete. You know what I mean? I'm like, no, just focus on the shop. Oh, it's too hot. Oh, I need to go water the ducks. You know, it's just I'm bazzing out. So I don't know. I need to I need to rein it in. I yeah, I just I don't know. But my favorite time my favorite time of the day is right before the sun comes up. Yeah. And so I'm like, when I'm when I'm working, of course I have to wake up at four in the morning to go to work. And at the time, oh this sucks, but then by five o'clock, oh, this is great.

SPEAKER_00 36:19

Oh, I love this.

SPEAKER_03 36:20

Yeah. So I forced myself, no, it was Sunday. Sunday to wake up and go for a run. And I'm like, oh, this sucks. But I got up, I went running. I'm like, oh, this is great. I love it outside. Next day, slept till six. And I'm like, God, day's over. Crap. Yeah. So instead of going working out, I went and worked on the shop. And it's like, anyways, I don't know. So I need a I need some motivation. I don't know what it is. Just trying to figure it out. Figure that out.

SPEAKER_01 36:49

Are you ever gonna not be as busy? Like once the shop's up and stuff, you think you'll be less busy, or you'll just find another project to just consume you?

SPEAKER_03 36:58

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 36:59

To both.

SPEAKER_03 37:01

I think what once the shop is up, up, it will yes, it'll make me not as busy.

SPEAKER_01 37:09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 37:09

Or if if it wasn't a thousand degrees outside.

SPEAKER_01 37:13

Really? You're complaining?

SPEAKER_03 37:14

Yes. Yeah. Yeah, cuz because when I'm at the mine and I have to get out of the loader for like five minutes, like, oh, this is stupid. Oh, this is horrible. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna be that guy.

SPEAKER_01 37:27

It is way easier when you start at six and you just ease into the heat instead of just like noon outside. Oh my gosh. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 37:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 37:36

But all right, well, we'll think of something to motivate you, bud. But right now, get that shot filled. Perfect. Alright.

SPEAKER_03 37:45

Pound towns for sale.

SPEAKER_00 37:47

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 37:48

And you you're like, man, that that's a better investment than whatever. I'm like, yeah. So say you had the money and you bought it. What would be the what would be the dream? True land. Like what what would you do with that property?

SPEAKER_01 38:05

Well, I d see this is where this is where business with a partner makes things hard. Uh-huh. Because if I didn't have a partner, I could just have precision buy it, they could float all that crap. I put up a little shop that could be our maintenance yard. And, you know, we could store the truck out there and all the parts. Right.

SPEAKER_00 38:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 38:29

You know, obviously just moto it. But no, leave it. So if realistically, if I was gonna I don't honestly don't know where it is, but Moapa is about to get that concrete plant going on, right? Supposedly there's a huge housing development supposed to start out there. So there might be some potential real estate. Now, again, I don't know exactly where it is.

SPEAKER_03 38:53

So I don't know if I think it's like warm shrinks, like way out. I think I could be wrong.

SPEAKER_01 38:57

I am not sure. Yeah. I mean, eight acres.

SPEAKER_03 39:00

I think it's got water on it.

SPEAKER_01 39:02

He's got a well.

SPEAKER_03 39:03

Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 39:04

So eight acres, I mean, you could divide that up, right, and you can make some money though. Yeah. So, like, okay, keep it for 10, 15 years, if you know sit on it. It's just yeah, keep it from moto for us while the kids are young, you know, whatever fun, fun, fun. And then okay, oh, whoopsie's actually made some money.

SPEAKER_00 39:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 39:20

But I mean, it would take some work because you'd have to develop it a little bit. But again, I don't really know where it is or what it looks like.

unknown 39:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 39:27

But that was my thought is you know, real estate, typically a good investment.

SPEAKER_03 39:33

Dad's always said, Man, I'd like to buy property, shape it, and then sell it.

SPEAKER_00 39:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 39:39

But then he said somewhere Clark County BS, like, if you do that, you're not allowed to, or something like that, and resell it, which is such bullshit. You own, you own your land, but you can't do what you want on your and it's so dumb. Dude, I just pay. Speaking of freaking Clark County, just paid another $738 inspection fee for them to come out. Yep, concrete looks good, rebar looks good.

SPEAKER_01 40:07

Just I thought you liked numbers that started with seven.

SPEAKER_03 40:12

Not that number. I had a 38 in it.

SPEAKER_01 40:14

Not what I've paid it. 38. Yeah, gotta love it.

SPEAKER_03 40:19

It's never any. And I I got one more. Once the the beams are up, they gotta come and look at that. That'll probably be another $700.

SPEAKER_01 40:27

At least. I mean, they might have to like look up instead of just down, which is more money.

SPEAKER_03 40:32

So yeah. So just that that one that one company on like thousand fifteen hundred or something, twenty five hundred plus another set.

SPEAKER_01 40:41

Does that not inspire you to start an inspection company? I should. You should. Oh you can drive around in your loader currently and just not a conflict of interest at all.

SPEAKER_02 40:52

Hey, this is wrong. Do it right. Uh or pay me off. I mean, it's up to you, bro. It's up to you.

SPEAKER_01 41:04

Yeah. Shoot. Can't see that going wrong at all. Yeah, no, that'd be great.

SPEAKER_02 41:12

Yeah. You gotta go, you good?

SPEAKER_04 41:14

No, yeah, I got like yeah, 15 more minutes to go. Cowboy hat. Do you own a cowboy hat?

SPEAKER_01 41:21

I had two had when I lived in the trailer here. Nice felt, you know, I don't know if it's nice, $150 hat, right? I thought I was cool in it. And it like shrank in the heat. So I gave it to Rhett. And then the other one I had, it's like a $40 hat. It was just always a little too shallow for my head, so like was too high, so it made me look even taller. So I gave that to Luke. So no, I do I personally do not have a cowboy hat right now. Does that make me less of a man? No. Or more of a poser.

SPEAKER_03 41:56

Or less of a poser. So so I have like a $40 hat that I bought from the fair, which I feel like is not a real hat. You know what I mean? It's it's not a real cowboy hat.

unknown 42:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 42:06

But it's good shade. So I've been wearing it while I'm working on the shop, but I feel like I don't want anyone to see me in it.

SPEAKER_01 42:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 42:13

You know what I mean? I feel like there's a whole, you know, like, what's that dude wearing a cowboy hat?

SPEAKER_01 42:19

Oh, he's not he ain't one of me. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 42:22

And I've so I'm like, kill him. Yeah. Like, like so I get nervous just even wearing it at my house. Yeah. Like, oh, what's that guy doing wear a cowboy hat?

SPEAKER_01 42:30

Well, ditch the cowboy hat and get like a sombrero, and then it'll be like, okay, he's one of us.

SPEAKER_03 42:36

I had one, I don't know where it went. So I had the big shade hat. Yeah. I just don't know where don't know where it went, so that I've been wearing the cheap cowboy hat.

SPEAKER_01 42:44

SPEAKER_01 42:48

Yeah. And I'm like, I kind of like, I mean, Bet Kevin's got a few cowboy hats.

SPEAKER_03 42:52

No, he does, but they're like they're shaped, you know, they're real crispy. Even if I just like nasty. Even yeah, but even if I spent the money on one, I feel like I'm and I wore it and I, you know, I had all the the stuff, I still feel like I'm gonna be judged, dude. Yeah, like I'm I feel like, yeah, dude, I could cosplay all day with the the the pin up or the the button up, the collar. I think it's actually pretty comfortable, you know, the jeans. But the minute I put a cowboy hot hat on, I feel like, nope, f that guy.

SPEAKER_01 43:25

It goes from like country boy to cowboy, and you're not a cowboy. I'm and I'm not, but you're a country boy, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So I got a whole bunch of nice flannels. I can't, dude. I put them on, I'm like, I look like an idiot. I put my black t shirt on.

SPEAKER_03 49:19

All right. Biggest pet peeve. Like we are uh yours. Well, not big, it's a pet peeve. I don't know if it's my biggest, but when you're either going through a driveway through or you're at the gas station and you're gonna make a purchase or whatever, like make a decision and hey, this we're gonna run up there, pay for it, done. Let's go. All right, let's not inconvenience the people behind us, let's not inconvenience ourselves, let's make the transaction, let's go. I cannot stand when we go up to like a drive-thru. I know what I want. I'm going to this fast food place or whatever, I know what I want to get. Let's not sit there, look at the thing, and you know, forever. And you know, we got a line behind us. No, make a decision. So before we come over here, right? I'm gonna I text you, Monster Red Bull. I get to Wally's. There's this dad and his three kids. They're not little kids, they're like, I think maybe it maybe a 13-year-old, 11, 10-year-old, something like that. Okay, cool, whatever. I'm in line. I grab my two drinks, and I just want to pay for it.

SPEAKER_01 50:41

SPEAKER_01 50:49

Thank you.

SPEAKER_03 50:49

Yeah. And then my whatever, my passion.

SPEAKER_00 50:53

Yeah, yours is pretty much.

SPEAKER_03 50:55

Yeah. Anyways. So this, I should be in and out for a minute. You know what I mean? Minute and a half. I mean they're 10, dude. The dad and the kids. Cool. They're buying something. I don't know. They're I forget. They're buying some chips and some other stuff. You gotta teach your kids how to purchase stuff. Sure, yeah, I'd let my kids buy stuff, but you know. But when he's up at the counter, he lets every single one of them pay individually, which okay. Like, maybe take your kids one at a time. Uh I don't know, I'm gonna sound like a jackass. Explain.

SPEAKER_01 51:44

But 100% with you.

SPEAKER_03 51:46

But each kid has to pay with their own money every time. But it's not just hey, pay real quick. They're up there, they're indecisive. They're like, Oh, do I want this bag of chips? No, I want this bag of chips. It's like, no, you already have that one, do this, do, or go get that one, put that one away, go get something else. And I'm sitting behind there, like, dude, I got my two drinks, I just want to get out of here. The line starts back up, someone else is behind me. And then someone else is behind me.

SPEAKER_01 52:13

And then I hate people behind me too.

SPEAKER_03 52:15

Yeah. Like, what are we doing, dude? Like, tell your kid to pay for the thing and let's move on. And then he's he's just like, he's not rushing them, he's not, and he's not really teaching them either. He's not, hey, this is how we do it. And then he's BSing with the worker. Like, my goodness, I got shit to do, dude.

SPEAKER_01 52:39

Dude, like, get it together. Let's go. And then a great other thing you can teach your kid is to be aware of your surroundings. Look back, oh, hey guys, we better hurry along.

SPEAKER_03 52:48

Yeah. And then they get done, right? They finally get done. And I'm like, all right, it's my turn. I'm gonna pay for my thing. The daughter, the oldest daughter, was like 13. Oh, oh, I want to get something else, grabs a candy bar. And and like does and just throws it back up there. Let me make this purchase so then and makes it cash. So you know, you have to count out the this the change. And the the lady behind counting the change doesn't know how to do the math, it's taking forever.

SPEAKER_04 53:17

Geeky, geeky, geek, geek.

SPEAKER_03 53:19

Yeah, I'm like, and I almost say, like, dude, just get you want to make a no purchase, get to the back of the line, right?

SPEAKER_01 53:25

Get your ass to the back.

SPEAKER_03 53:26

It's been 10 minutes. I've been sitting here and I and my drinks are warm. Yeah, no, they work, they're starting to sweat a little bit.

SPEAKER_01 53:34

I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 53:35

Like, like, if we're gonna buy something, make a decision, or if we're gonna go through the drive-thru, like to go up, like what do you feel? Or what do I feel like? I feel like chicken nuggets. I'm gonna order chicken nuggets. Not uh, let's let's stare at no, you're gonna get that.

SPEAKER_01 53:54

Yep, just you can say any restaurant that I've been to, I'll I'll tell you exactly what I get. Yeah, right. Like for going in and out, this is what I get. If I go to Chick-fil-A, this is what I get.

SPEAKER_03 54:03

Like, it doesn't change, like just freaking get the thing, or you stare at it and you always and then you get the same thing you always say. And you always do the same thing.

SPEAKER_01 54:10

Yeah, yeah. Anyways, dude, I yeah, people just yeah, it's selfish, it's just like dude.

SPEAKER_03 54:19

But do I say anything? No, no, I mean he can't, like just take it.

SPEAKER_01 54:24

Yeah, I mean, I'd probably make some passive aggressive comment behind him, like this motherfucker just loud enough from me. Just like no, yeah, that's or I'd make some gesture for the guy behind us, like what you know, but yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 54:38

But I don't also want to be a dick. I I don't know if he's he wasn't really teaching in that moment either. Yeah, like he's letting them do their thing, but almost just letting him flounder up there. That's what it was. It was like there was no rhyme or reason, just for just no self-awareness at all. It was like, my gosh, dude. I hate it.

SPEAKER_01 54:58

Yeah, dude. There's the random pod. Now, I mean, if you guys liked it, not liked it, whatever.

SPEAKER_03 55:04

If you don't like it, we're doing it.

SPEAKER_01 55:06

If you want us to discuss anything, like give us some weird topics, off the wall stuff, like that could be fun to get some some weird. I mean, not a weird, but just like different, different topics, different topics, yeah. No, this is fun. Cool. All right. Well, yeah, do you listen? Uh peace.
