SPEAKER_05

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Same album. Great song. Yeah. Those kids were like 16 years old or something when they put that out. There's dude, it's a band Australian, I believe.

SPEAKER_02

There's a band that I really like that's a bunch of kids when they first started.

SPEAKER_05

Hansen.

SPEAKER_02

Oh dude. Dude, no, they're actually they're good. They're good. Not my style of music. Not my style of music, but like talent-wise. Yeah, they had played. They can play, they can harmonize.

SPEAKER_05

What are you thinking? It was a young kid band, huh?

SPEAKER_02

Uh Protest the Hero. Oh, sort of. Yeah, yeah. This was years ago. I mean, they're they're probably in their early 30s now, but Protest the Hero, when they first started, they were like 16, 15, and they were just wailing on these licks, dude.

SPEAKER_05

Silver Share, they played their graduation, you know, because they'd already had the album out by the time they were juniors. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then so they got hired to play their high school graduation.

SPEAKER_02

There was the um kid uh kind of like rock, jazz fused band that uh my brother buddy's Dylan, his little nephew was a part of. He was the uh saxophone player for them, but they're like a jazz, rock, and fused, and they used to play all the time the the party at the pines. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like I think Drew was part of that, maybe. I don't remember, but yeah, I recall that. Like, yeah, and they had all these like young kids here in town and they were just rocking.

SPEAKER_05

It's like a lost art now, though, you know? Kids are well, not really, just maybe the people I know. None of their kids play, my kids don't play instruments-wise.

SPEAKER_02

How old were you when you started playing?

SPEAKER_05

Uh I was fifteen when I really started playing guitar. I had a guitar my whole life, I had stickers on it, bullshit, but 16, 15, I learned one with tablature. Ding, ding, ding, ding. I'm like, I'm fucking rock star.

SPEAKER_01

Bro, dude, I'm in done.

SPEAKER_05

And I got a harmony guitar from Sears, the catalog one. Yeah, yeah. Goofy ass guitar, but man, it was mine. Yeah, you know.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, and mine was a uh cheapy Yamaha acoustic that I still have, and the only reason I got that was because of Desperado. I bought one because the company was paying for lessons, or the production was paying for lessons for me to go learn, right?

SPEAKER_05

And I was really studying your hand. We watched Desperado yesterday.

SPEAKER_02

I don't play anything. Like what because what they had to was the guitar was like fake.

SPEAKER_05

It was a real real guitar, but it was a five-string, like you can see it flinging it with your fingers, your real flamingo kind of style.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Me and Kate watched it yesterday. Did you? And then we watched re-watched just your parts today. Okay. Me and Vinny. Did you watch Um Ten Love? We some of it. You got like 20 minutes. So bad, man. So bad, dude. I couldn't tell what was really happening. Like the whole room, everyone's got a some kind of disability of sort. We're a special. One kid's kind of spazzy. Right, right, right. You have a speech impediment or something, right? Stutter. Like patch my head. I got pocket. You got fucking patch, dude, and your glasses. Yep. Jorge. Yeah. I'm sitting there, like, it was called like Untamed something, and I I text you about it. You didn't respond back, and then I found it said I it was already in my search history. Uh Untamed 11. I'm like, there it is. Me and Caitlin, dude. It was like watching fucking paint dry, buddy. No, dude, it was like watching old school or a funny movie. We were laughing through the whole thing. Every time you came on, dude, just funny. And then it's like she smells, she smells like cat pee. Oh yeah. You're like, yeah, we can we can wash her down, we can throw her outside, and shit. It's like, what's going on here?

SPEAKER_03

Could you imagine when you're the kid that's being bullied by the special ed kids? Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

However, you when you're being bullied by the special ed kids. I couldn't figure out who the girl you're talking about was because I didn't pay attention real quick.

SPEAKER_02

The main little girl.

SPEAKER_05

The girl that's sitting right next to you then.

SPEAKER_02

Right, right. The main little girl.

SPEAKER_05

She's you guys are talking about her. She's sitting right in the middle.

SPEAKER_02

And apparently she's like being abused or something in her home. So it's about like it's just one of those.

SPEAKER_05

We only made it about 10 minutes, 15 minutes in.

SPEAKER_02

It keeps it keeps going. Like how but the uh save it for a rainy day. The assistant teacher, dude. The the his actual name I think is Jaime Gomez.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, the guy, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, the guy, he was in solo with me. Oh no shit. He was one of the like military dudes that goes in. So he's like, hey, hey, hooray, man, that's me, man. What's going on?

SPEAKER_05

Did you recognize him from there? Or like did he go?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, he didn't remember me. Hey, dude, we're saying hi, blah, blah, blah, blah. That's cool. And what's funny about that is if you watch Untain Love, okay, you you're not there yet, but there's a scene when they're um filming at Griffith Park. Oh, alright. And she's talking, and as you pan in the background, you see my dad sitting talking to that dude's wife, hi to his wife, because they were just sitting chatting, like all the moms, everybody get together. So my dad's sitting there talking to this lady.

SPEAKER_05

Was he paid extra?

SPEAKER_02

No, he just was uh just by chance extra. Like they just they just so my dad did that, and he did that in American Me too. They because he had to be with me at all times because we're in False Prison. So they gave him a shirt and you know some jeans, and they're like, okay, you're gonna be in the background. So he was in the background.

SPEAKER_05

Does he get all excited when he's me? Smoke a cigarette in the back.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my god, it was the other one too. There's uh an episode of a TV show, a cop TV show I did called High Incident, and we're all supposed to be. I'm an illegal alien kid that runs from the cops and everything and all that, and have a few lines.

SPEAKER_05

You were stereotyped big time.

SPEAKER_03

But my dad, when they were on there, they're like, hey, we need a couple of like extras in this illegal like den area that gave him clothes and they had them be an extra too.

SPEAKER_05

They pay him like a buck or something.

SPEAKER_02

It's 75 standard of day, I think. Oh I don't know if it's changed now, if it's more, but it was back then like 75 bucks just to be an extra.

SPEAKER_05

You would go up to your dad and ask him something, and he's like, hey, I'm trying to get in character.

SPEAKER_02

He's I need not method acting. Let me get in the zone here. But yeah, yeah, yeah. So uh going going back. Um it was through movies and stuff that I I learned then to pick up the guitar and start playing. And then my mom took us to do piano lessons, and then that's how the guitar made more sense to me.

SPEAKER_05

They always said people say that all the time, you know, great piano players can pick up a guitar. It's not even very close. It's really not. But I think what I get out of it is the hearing the keys of stuff. Yeah, it's I got real good at playing, like I hear a song and then pick it out on a guitar without learning music because of piano. Right. Like the just the sounds of the. You know, you learn your EA, D A G, and I know what they sound like here.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, so it does help, but it's not like oh. Not actually playing though, though. Unless you're playing a guitar.

SPEAKER_02

Problem, you know, fucking general and nothing. But no, you're right. Like as far as applying your hands, excuse me, like physically and doing that. No, that took time. I would sit there.

SPEAKER_05

You're not putting your finger in the right fret and like fucking yourself.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, just sitting there just trying to like like damn it over and over and over again. But all my brothers, uh uh like my youngest brother, Chris, he plays bass. Sam plays awesome guitar, like he plays better than me. He plays really, really good. Oh, Sam? Yeah, yeah. Sambo. Yeah, Sambo, he plays really good. And then uh my brother Daniel, because he went on to be like the pastor and do the pastor thing. Oh, so he's in a so he plays the piano when they had like when they need a church person to you know play piano. But they're all hymns, dude, and those were always kind of easy.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, you know.

SPEAKER_02

You learn learned the concept of it, yeah, yeah, and that's what taught us to how to sight read music. And like I could, if I sit there and I take the hour to write out the chords and all that, I can sight read then. My brother can just look at and be like, oh, it's a GF or G7.

SPEAKER_05

There was a change right here. Yeah, I was never I was in a band for years. Oh, you read this. If I could read that, you're like, none. I'm just trying to give me some tab, maybe you know, I could rip it out, but I can't. Dude, nice piece of lightning right there behind you.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, speaking of the weather, since we didn't know.

SPEAKER_05

I think I pulled it off the first one. Just uh I'm like, excuse me. I try to get all tough. Excuse me. No, but I mean you guys really mean a lot. Dude, it fucking and I just stopped because I'm authentic. The other coach grabs me around the shoulder, dude, starts like like rubbing my shoulder, dude. I felt like such a tool. Like I did. And no one else, I'm like, I hope they cry or something, you know. I didn't cry. No, no, no. I just got choked up. Choked up. When you're talking, you know, that little fucking choke up thing. I didn't want it to happen, man. And I'm like, fuck, I feel like an idiot. And so I bring it up later, you know. Vinny's like, it was only like the fat the last five words that you said that you could hear it. I go, well, I had a whole nother sentence. I couldn't get to. I didn't want it, you know. But it's weird, it just came out of nowhere, man.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_05

Dude, it just what a fool. You know, and then it's like, okay, well, hey man, you know, I it felt something, you know, whatever. Then we all line up and they all shake our hands, give us a hug. It was the last, you know, we don't do that every game, but we're like, hey man, been pleasure. Yeah, last time we got here. Fucking started up almost again, dude. But when these kids would grab you and be like, man, thanks, coach, for everything you've done to me. I'm like, just my pleasure, man. It's like, I just okay, don't talk to nobody. Like, you know? Just leave it. Just don't leave it. I'm like, you were great. Yeah, thanks. Good to go. Good game, good game. But yeah, it was uh I felt a little foolish, but that's good though, dude.

SPEAKER_02

You're not foolish enough.

SPEAKER_05

And the next coach gets up, hey, we're clapping. All right, guys, man. Get on with your life and just rock on the road. Next coach, you know, and I'm over here like, why'd you start with me? You know, like stupid dude. So I hung up my uh coach's shirt for the last time. Salute. I did a retirement party of coaching. Gotcha. Because uh Vinny's well, I did. Oh, you did, okay. That night.

SPEAKER_02

That was that was uh Friday night.

SPEAKER_05

I just went home and or went back to the hotel and got drunk and have a retirement party. I got no gifts or nothing.

SPEAKER_03

But you know, I wanted a plaque something.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, you know picture me on there with yeah, thanks for the many years of service. Yeah. Nothing, dude. But so I, you know, because he's going to high school, which he started his first practice.

SPEAKER_02

And then the bus, I mean, they take the bus to begin.

SPEAKER_05

And and I don't work for the high school, I can't fucking weasel my way onto a field like you can with other shit. Right, right, right. So it's over, you know. I'm like, it's over.

SPEAKER_02

Just be a spectator.

SPEAKER_05

I got a call last night from Little League asking if I'll coach All-Stars. And I'm like, I'm retired, man.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Let me call you back about an hour later. I'm like, oh man, fuck it. So I ain't fucking going nowhere. I ain't fucking leaving.

SPEAKER_03

I ain't fucking leaving. What is that from?

SPEAKER_05

Wolf of Hall Street. Oh, that's they want me to they want me to retire.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not fucking leaving.

SPEAKER_05

I'm not leaving. I ain't fucking leaving. I ain't fucking leaving. Everyone cheering. That's what I was sending out memes to those to other coaches. They're like, oh fuck, they got you, huh? That movie is ridiculous. But it's his last year, little league.

SPEAKER_02

And I figured Is it just uh the like their tournament, a single day tournament?

SPEAKER_05

No, it's uh all-stars, so they'll play double elimination. So you'll play against Prescott, Chino, Williams, um a couple of weeks, Camp Verde. A couple of weeks. Yeah, it usually lasts a good week, maybe a week and a half. Okay. And then the winner of all these moves on to the state tournament. They have their own and oh, you'll go with them and be the representative of Northern Arizona.

SPEAKER_02

If they win and make it through.

SPEAKER_05

Which I think they might. And then he's not playing it. Yeah, he is. Oh, okay. Yeah, he was Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

He made the team.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_05

I didn't even send him to try-outs, dude.

SPEAKER_02

It's like they just knew Yeah, they've seen him all year.

SPEAKER_05

They know who he is.

SPEAKER_02

So I watched a video that reminded me of you and I should have sent it to you, but it was on YouTube. I was going through you know, Doom Scrolling. And it's a guy who was saying we had this little league team come up and they whooped our teams butt. And he goes, and it was a bunch of nine, ten-year-olds that were just like shooting or hitting balls like almost at the park. And he goes, and I come up to these dads after, and I'm like, How did you get your kids so good? And the dads had no baseball experience, nothing. They're like, We would just take them to the batting cages and let them have that.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

And like you'd be surprised I'll just letting them hit on that batting cage really makes a difference.

SPEAKER_05

Especially that age, you know. Like if you could hit a ball. I I've been umpiring for this whole season, and I do nine, uh, eight, nine, ten year olds basically. And it's rough, dude. Like well, uh to find a pitcher, you know, they could throw a strike or anywhere near, I call a strike, you know. I I really open the the fucking gates up big. Right, right. I want them hitting. We're just not looking for walks. But you'll find those kids that could hit, like you say, go with batting cages. They're like home runs every time. Yeah. Because they just can't catch balls out there and they're they just smash one and they're definitely on third. At least, yeah. So at that age, yeah, man, get them out there balls over and over and over. Throwing, but once you get up to where you know, even twelve, thirteen, you're just they gotta start practicing how to make plays and a little baseball IQ, where do I stand, where do I back up? That's when you start developing them. And then by the time now that I'm at 14, they're they're gonna be playing with 15, 16. I'm kinda out of my element here. Uh you know, I've taught I'm good at teaching them, getting to it. Yeah. Teaching fundamentals. Now it's hard to even coach them because they I know, I know. Which they do know, you know. But you're not applying it. You're not applying it, and it's me to be here to tell you to remind you. To apply it. Yeah, you're supposed to do that, I know. Well, keep it up. You know, what the fuck? You know, great. Well, I'll do it, you know. So it's not a lot of coaching in that sense. And everyone at this age has their own dads or own private coaches.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_05

And you don't want to change what they're paying good money to have some private coach teach them. I'm not gonna go in and change his fucking batting stance. You know, I'll tell him to try this. Because there's always development, you know, you could always learn something. But it's hard to fucking get Well, I know his dad's a head coach for high school. I'm not gonna go tell him what to do. Tell his kid what to do.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, you know. I was gonna say side uh side thing when uh do you ever watch uh Kirby Enthusiasm? Yeah, a little bit. Did you see the one where where Larry's uh getting the free golf lessons? He's sitting at the bench at the driving range. Yeah, he's sitting at the bench at the driving range and he's watching this guy give somebody else a golf lesson, so he's like taking the notes on it and everything.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, just get taking his own little lessons out of it. Just by watching him for free, and he just starts playing golf like way better. Well, I mean, honestly, dude, fucking YouTube. Yeah, just like you can go out if you're driven kid that wants to learn, you can go learn how to throw any kind of pitches, you can learn your pre preparation of anything, dude. Like YouTube is fucking awesome. You can learn how to play guitar, you can learn how to do you know YouTube university, you know.

SPEAKER_02

We had to learn that shit on our own. We had to go out and trial and error, dude. Yeah. You had to go out, like you said, and oh fuck, that didn't sound great. Okay.

SPEAKER_05

Now you can sit in your fucking, it'll tell you where to put your finger and you know, which I don't hate. I'm not bagging on that at all. You know, I've been my guitar's out, I've been picking at it again. No. My fingers hurt, Eddie. Yeah, dude. No calluses on those fingertips no more.

SPEAKER_02

You got you got the hands too pretty now.

SPEAKER_05

Well, no, they're rough hands, but my fingertips, you know. Yeah, you that that happens, yeah. And I'm playing acoustic, so I get fucked three songs in. I'm like, fuck, dude. Same thing, like tender.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

I know what you're supposed to do. Keep playing, keep building. Right. I mean, it hurts. It shouldn't hurt to play guitar.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, fuck. I don't know. You're like, I said, I'm I think I'm gonna go inside. It's only been like five minutes.

SPEAKER_05

Like, I'm gonna go play this song on my phone and just listen to it. Oh, air guitar, man. It didn't hurt at all, dude. Yeah, no, let's take five. We'll be right back hanging with the humans race.

It's not illegal to say you're married. But is it illegal to marry them? Yeah. Apparently not, because they're not doing anything. But air quilture for those listening.

Oh, whatever it took to get some movement going, because dude, you ain't just sitting there. But but just sitting there too. I think I'd come that way too.

SPEAKER_03

You know, don't do it. You should just stay quiet.

SPEAKER_05

They gotta be working some kaggles or something, you know, getting that little grip. Bro, gross. But how how do you just sit there and soak? That's what they do in college at like BYU. Yeah, I I mean that's what they say.

SPEAKER_02

Well, you gotta understand a lot of these kids have such religious hang-ups and convictions. They do, they're that they really do. Like that they're beating themselves up about it, but but the fucking percentage of animal sex has got to be out of control because that's not and divorce rates because a lot of these kids are like, okay, well then let's just get married, and then you know, then we can have sex, and then you realize shit. Don't even like this guy. Bitch is crazy.

SPEAKER_05

You know, yeah and I so it's like you're risking high divorce rates, you're you're they had those shows on TLC or whatever, Wendy watches a fucking midwife, or not women, uh the dude, the fucking creepy blonde-haired guy that has like 40 wives. In one of those shows. Sure, sure. And I come in and I'm like, They're all ugly and shit, dude. Like, I'd hang out with that chick, you know. Right, right. Maybe get drunk and bang a couple of the others, but you gotta have one main one, right? Right, right. And he's like, oh no, he spends his time with all of them. Like, that's a lot of fucking work. No, it'd be my main chick. And if you had like 15 of them or something, so I mean you got a variety, but that puts you damn near in a cult.

SPEAKER_02

You're a leader of some kind of you're you're you're borderline playing with some cultist shit. And it seems to be that the people that do that, or the men rather, that do that shit, always seem to be crazy religious kooks.

SPEAKER_05

And what's crazy, they're not even like good looking dudes, like oh, every chick wants to be with them. Just some weird dude that's manipulative and gets to their minds. Right. And hey, you're you're born into this Mormon world, and you're gonna be my wife now.

SPEAKER_02

David Koresh and like the branch dividians, dude.

SPEAKER_05

They were all I feel like it like I feel like it started cult. Yeah, I got away with people, man.

SPEAKER_03

Instead of holy water, it's just kegs.

SPEAKER_05

The yeast of Christ.

SPEAKER_02

I always told Joe when I died, throw uh I go fit bury me with like a pony keg and have the tap come out of the casket, and then everybody pour one last beer for me.

SPEAKER_05

You know that's not a bad idea. Like uh you'd probably have to get get two hoses, some way you could refill the fucking cake, you know.

SPEAKER_03

Well, the pony is just enough for everybody to have like one with me.

SPEAKER_05

I'm not okay. Well, no, I'm saying like all year long, dude. Let's fucking go to apes, man. Anytime we want, we just go out and get a cold beer after work. You know, stop it.

SPEAKER_02

Well, no, then then when you bury me, you extend the line up out of the tap and onto the uh you mount it onto the uh the the headstones. Yeah, headstones. And that way when you come and visit me, you come pour yourself a beer. You come back every time it's empty, they're like, what the fuck?

SPEAKER_05

Fucking guy. I ain't going to visit Abe no more. Fucking cake is dry.

SPEAKER_03

And then every every couple of weeks you gotta unbury me, rip the old keg up, put the new one.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, maybe just bury the cake next to you something so we can replace the cake. Because we want it all year long. Right, right.

SPEAKER_03

You want to come by and visit everyone. And we want to invite everybody and do seasonal beer, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Everybody welcome, you know? You'd be like Jim Morrison's fucking grave, hanging out, drinking beer out of your fucking skull. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, bro. We'll fucking party it up.

SPEAKER_05

Put it in the woods so the kids could go party in the woods again.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Fucking uh have uh pallets set up for a bonfire.

SPEAKER_05

You don't have any kids, but I couldn't imagine Finney at this age, 13, he's gonna be 14 here in July. I was already going to like Kegers in the Woods and shit, you know. I wasn't getting completely smashed. I'd have a couple beers and that'd probably smash me, but it was the hangout. That was where everyone's going, man. We're playing fucking hacky sack and hanging in the woods, man, smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo, you know? And fucking I couldn't imagine them going, yeah, I'm going up to the the woods. Going up to Mingus, hang out with my buddies. I don't know if I would be like, the fuck you are, or hell yeah, dude. I'll give you a ride. Should be like, I'll go with you, guys. Let's fucking let's go. We're going to the fucking woods. You know? Like, kids don't go to the woods anymore.

SPEAKER_05

I did it. But then you gotta be proud, like, oh man, you're gonna you're with the cool kids gang. Go, man. Go have fun, enjoy yourself. Because I know he's a he's already been to a few parties that I don't know. And I've been very honest with the guy. Like, hey, you're getting into that age now. If you happen to do something that you know you shouldn't be, don't be afraid to fucking call me. I'd rather you call me. Yeah. You'd be in a lot less trouble. You know, I'll even give you a couple freebies, you know.

SPEAKER_02

I'll yell, I'll yell at you, but it's better that than try having to bail you out of jail or fucking picking you up off an asphalt or and I don't even tell him I'll yell at it.

SPEAKER_05

You fucking call me, dude. Yeah. You know, I'm on your side for this shit, and I went through this. I understand. Hanging out with buddies and he's been to a couple parties, and I know they're girls and they go to girls' houses at parties, but I don't think he's doing that stuff anything like that. Okay. I really don't, because I feel like the fucking creep because I'm always trying to hook him up. We go somewhere, I'm like, there's a cute little you know, 14-year-old girl. Like, hey dude, you know?

SPEAKER_03

Like your dad's being kind of creepy for you, he won't you go?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, but then he's like, She's like 12, 13, maybe. I'm like, so are you? You know, who you looking for here, dude? You know, like I know we all want the fucking sprinted carpenters or Madison Beer, that's his new girl. And I'm like, I'm not finding a girl that's your age. And yeah, I said, look at her and just give her a wink. And he's like, doing that. So I know I know he's not a player. Right, right, right. He's a shy guy, whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I could see them, I'd like to be a flying wall to one of their parties.

SPEAKER_02

And see what these kids do nowadays.

SPEAKER_05

I bet they do nothing. I bet they sit around on the couch and they all have their own phone and they're fucking sending them two feet away. Right. Look at this TikTok. Right. Oh, I Snapchatted you.

SPEAKER_02

You're like because like even I started texting in high school before, like right as I left, senior year, and I started driving. My mom got me. Do you remember the fucking Nokia bricks? Yeah, where you play snake on it and to text, you know, if you wanted the A, the B or the S. You had to hit that. Yeah, one, two, three times. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Doing all that, right? Um but I remember texting girls and doing that. But I always thought, like, this is stupid. Why aren't we just talking? Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Why aren't we just looking back at going back to TikTok and I I still see all this shit. I've been on there a lot this weekend. Man, there's this guy that's probably 20, 25 years old, and he's like, Man, maybe he's like 20, 18 to 20. Look at the time back in the 90s, and he plays this old video of just kids in school and whatnot.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

And he's just everyone's laughing and they're talking. He goes, Man, everyone's grooving and dancing, smiling and talking, and there was no phones, you know? Yeah. And it's like, boy, it really puts it in perspective of because how real how much we rely on our social media.

SPEAKER_02

Because we grew up in that, and yeah, I s I get stuck on my phone. Oh, I get too. I get stuck fucking doom scrolling. Let's watch a movie and I sit there and 30 minutes in the movie, and I'm like, shit.

SPEAKER_05

But then I go and yell at my kid, get off your fucking phone.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, we're watching.

SPEAKER_05

You know why my face is all lit up with the fucking screen? Do as I say, not as I do.

SPEAKER_02

Right. Right. So like we we did it. It entrapped us all, dude.

SPEAKER_05

Like it does. It it really does. And I wouldn't. It would suck because I love my phone too. My casino games, my fucking TikToks, my Facebook, whatever, man. Yeah. But if it was just gone. You think you'd be okay? Yeah. I know we'd be okay. Yeah, yeah. I just need a boombox. Fucking know we'd be okay.

SPEAKER_02

I need a boombox to play my show. Or I or you know what? I'll give you like an an an iPod. It doesn't have to be connected to the internet. I just need an iPod where I can play my iPad.

SPEAKER_05

Music is okay. And that's it. A music uh we'll allow that. Some sort of a boombox, an iPad, or an iBox or something. No iPad. iBox what do they call it? iPod. iPod. Yeah. Yeah. iBox. Right. That sounds like a something. But I I think we'd be fine. I really think we would adjust within the year and everyone would go back to but what would we go back to? I mean is that just me trying to live in the past where we didn't have anything, you know.

SPEAKER_02

Because like I when I saw like we we did house parties in L. We didn't do woods parties. And when I moved out here, I was still young. I was 21. And yeah, my friends out here, hey, we're going to woods parties. What the fuck's a woods party? We go party in the woods. I go, like they let you guys, nobody come stop. She's like, and every now and then a forest ranger might come by. Yeah, they all run. But but he's like, but no, for the most part. And that never happened. Like, no. So a ton of times we parted here, no one ever came to to stop us.

SPEAKER_05

But I don't even think the new generation of cops would ever even know to look on the woods. They're like, we didn't do that shit.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. What are they doing in the woods? He's like, we're busting Pokemon rings. But yeah, playing Pokemon.

SPEAKER_05

But you know, it's huge. Like at the baseball uh tournaments, I noticed it, and then I started seeing them, you know, on the reels and shit. Hacky sack is huge again. Again? Dude, it's huge again.

SPEAKER_02

What the hell is that?

SPEAKER_05

That's cool.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Fucking screaming eagle, dude. Yeah, what the fuck was that? So all the teams, everywhere we go for a tournament now, you'll see the whole team in a big circle. I'm like, oh, fucking fight? You know? Yeah, yeah. Circles used to be fights, man. Oh, there's a fight. Yeah. Now I'm like, oh, they're fucking kicking a sack. And I ain't shy. I'll go to other teams and like, hey, can I hop in? Yeah, yeah. I'm fucking flipping it up with my foot. Yeah. Yeah, dude. I can still do that fucking back. But I've seen a couple good kids out there. I'm like, oh no, oh, that's what I was doing, man. The three-ball stall, where you flip it up, squat, and catch it like in your by your nuts there, and then hop back up. And you know, I can't do that no more. I pulled a hammy or something, but yeah, now I'm just trying to keep it up. I'm a little old. But it's cool to see that's coming back, you know. It is coming back huge. Like you see these TikToks. Why is this taking over our school?

SPEAKER_02

And then you just see all these clumps of it's because kids got tired of one thing. Things are cyclical, things fashion, like you you know how notice now how all the all the girls are in the like baggy pants now. Yeah. You've seen that? Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Well, a mixture of 60s and 90s.

SPEAKER_02

Right, right. I love those sixties hip huggers and the fucking baggy or low rise jeans where the girls were doing low rise jeans.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, and then they lost for a while, and you wore the in the 80s you wore the pants above your belly button, but fucking stupid. Stupid. So it just 90s went back to the little. Yeah, it came back a little bit.

SPEAKER_02

I think Jinko jeans had a quick little revival, you know. But now, yeah, they're they're coming back, I guess. And and I think that's the same thing with like hacky sack, like getting together with your buddies. It's like, fuck, what are we doing during lunch? I mean, who brought this bag? Like they probably some kid probably grabbed it from his dad. Dad, yeah. From his dad, who's dad's dad's like, what is this?

SPEAKER_05

And his dad's like, oh man. Then someone sees that and like, oh, I'm gonna get one of those.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, where did you get that? Dude, from my dad, but I think smoke shops on it. What are smoke shops?

SPEAKER_05

Go get a CPA sac, man. It's all rastafarian, the the bag one. Yeah, yeah. I could really stall them good because clatter.

SPEAKER_02

Right, because once you gotta work them, get them.

SPEAKER_05

You get those original hacky sacks, dude. They're like hard. Yeah, yeah. And you you know, you gotta work them a little bit to get them a little bit flat, and then you could run them over lightly. But if you did it right away, they'd pop the seam. So you had to like grind those beans down, and finally, dude, my hacky sack was like almost flat, you know.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, you can catch it anywhere.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, I catch that motherfucking brim of my hat, you flip it over, catch it on my fucking earlobe, boom, bam. You know, like hey, hear what I'm cooking?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, dude, tricks that way. It's awesome.

SPEAKER_05

But now they're coming out with these, they're damn near bouncy balls, you know. I get in this circle out there at the game. I'm like, I barely hit it, and he's boing. They're like, geez, coach, I'm like, get a rules hacky sec, bro. Yeah, yeah. Fuck is this, man?

SPEAKER_03

This fucking new shit, like grinding it there.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, he worked. I don't know how to do it, and then they're serving it to themselves, and I'm like, nah, nah, nah, that's not the rules, Frank. You you gotta pass it. If you're gonna serve it to self, you can only do it with your toe, the the flip-up, and then you pass it on. Uh you guys don't even know the fucking rules, man. I'm like, I'm out, and I go limping away because I tore something off. And then you can't hacky sack barefoot, man. That's uh that was always tough. Yeah, well that's cool, especially because somebody came back with you, but yeah, but you know, hanging out with the fucking hippies and shit like I did. Like their Tevas and shit on. And those are hard, man. You need some vans, we're really good. You didn't have a good fish. Oh, we all had skater shoes, so it was always it was good for our skaters, but those hippies, man, they're wearing fucking boots and no shoes. So doing it. You're no good at this shit, man. Put some shoes on, dude.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, get some tennis shoes on. I could see this shit right. I think we transitioned our age. Because we started disc golfing. That was the thing, you know, from hacky sacking into like, all right, let's let's go disc golf and so you throw your fucking arm out one time. Oh, bro. I've done that. I can't fucking go. I've done that, like I'm getting that tennis elbow from it, you know, trying to lob one. Well, because you can't. And it's not strength.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, you don't have to whip it like a thing. Right, right.

SPEAKER_02

You just it's it's if you can't.

SPEAKER_05

And it's not frisbee. Right. And it is, but it's not. It's not. It's you try to throw it like a dude on the beach, I fucking throw a quarter mile, man. I just throw fucking frisbee over those mountains, bro. Yeah. So I go out fucking disc golf, and I'm like, fucking. I just threw my fucking elbow out, and every time I disc golf now, it hurts like shit. And everyone, hey, you want to go? And I'm like, I do, but I can't. So I started trying doing this way, because the the inside flipper.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's hard.

SPEAKER_05

But man, it just goes. You gotta catch that that shit. It's it's really hard. Uh I wouldn't mind trying again. It's just I know my fucking arm. You know, as a baseball coach, I know you throw a lot of baseballs. Yeah, yeah. After a few, they start hurting, but you swing a fucking hammer all day and then you're fucking jerking it, man. I mean your fucking elbow now.

SPEAKER_03

It's working out that strength.

SPEAKER_05

Maria Sharapova, I got tennis elbows. But no, I love that.

SPEAKER_02

But that was another hippie kind of hippie sports, dude. Yeah, for sure. College fucking uh beer pong, all that shit.

SPEAKER_05

Hacky sack, yeah. We'll come up. That'd be a great for uh family feud. Top five hippie sports.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, you'd have like hacky sack, frisbee golf, frisbee golf, uh, frisbee football. I don't know what that's called. Uh uh super frisbee something frisbee, but it's like football, but with frisbee. Oh yeah. And you yeah, you can't run. You you can run into a position, but when you catch it, you gotta stop. That sounds fun, too. So it's you gotta constantly be serving it to to people.

I try to tell them, man, this this is the time, man. Fast. This is the time.

SPEAKER_02

And it's gonna go by fast.

SPEAKER_05

And you ask anyone, what was the best you know, time of your life? Most people would be like, fucking high school, man. You know, you don't even realize it until you're uh it's over.

SPEAKER_02

I was gonna say college for me, because we we had a blast for college, yeah. We had a blast.

SPEAKER_05

My college was the army, so uh we had fun there. Yeah, that was a blast too. But think of high school, man. It was like, man, this is good times. You got in his mind, he's gonna be around these people for the rest of his life. That's dude.

SPEAKER_02

So full circle here. Did you play in high school? Like, did you play in bands in high school? Bands? Yeah. Were you in a band in high school? No. No, no, no. You didn't do that until you were older.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. Well, no, uh my left uh 12th senior year, uh, we we weren't really a band, but I thought we were a band. Are you guys that hung out together and played music? A couple of us. And that was uh Danny Cooksie from he was a redheaded kid from Different Strokes, his name is Sam. I met him in high school. He played bass. So I played a little guitar with him, and then we had this drummer guy, but we never completed a song or nothing, you know, sit around and hit a bong or fucking look at nudie pictures and shit. Holding your guitar. But you know, I c by then I I graduated from one so I could do like uh jump in the fire. I was a big metallic dude, but yeah, bands, no, not until the army had screwed around with this drummer dude. We played some shit, but it was after. Yeah, after all that.

SPEAKER_02

High school I played hacky sack and you know we played bands and we played house parties and we played shit. I played for my entire high school, dude.

SPEAKER_05

But it's just so much fun, and these people you're not gonna see them forever. You know, he thinks everyone's just there and like dude. I I'm in touch with a few high school friends, you know, we all are, but I think what it is and and once you're an adult, life is different, and they don't get that concept yet of this shit's over, man. Yeah, you know, there's no more summer breaks, there's no more shit, dude.

SPEAKER_02

I I think Vinny is not taking advantage of how cool his parents are. I agree. To do some things that like my mom would never let me get away with. And not bad things, but like start a band and go like shit. My dad plays guitar. What if I learn to play guitar from my dad? Go play with my buddies who play music and we all start a band and play for a bigger.

SPEAKER_05

So he fucking feels in duty's all maniac on fucking our age, you know. That'd be me. That would be you, sir. Yeah. But not just the shit that we do with him, the shit we buy. When I was a kid, if I hung out with Vinny, I would think he was a rich kid. And we're not rich by any means. But he's always got the cool shit. Yeah, yeah. And why do we do that? You know, like as I had fucking wrestlers and he ain't wearing fucking wrestlers. Get him those Levi's, get him, you know, get him baseball shit. He's gotta get the fucking $400 bat. You know, he would think this kid's fucking rich, going on vacations all the time and shit. Right. We're we're opposite of that, folks. We're broke because of him. Right. We could be leaving it out. We could. And now that baseball is over. I mean, I spend people have no idea.

You know, if you got oh, it's a close one off season, the rooms are only a hundred or something. But average, you know, you're paying that, and you're doing seven tournaments a season. Right. You know, you're seven to ten thousand dollars that we don't even realize, like, fuck man, we're gonna have that extra money now. Right. Right. You know, we're gonna extra vacation a year.

SPEAKER_05

I love Denver. We went there for a game when we did a tournament. It took me all day to realize how white that city is.

SPEAKER_02

Did you ever notice? No, not necessarily. Because like we saw some homeless people, nothing too crazy.

SPEAKER_05

Like it's like and they're white homeless though. I think he wasn't. Dude, but anyway. I saw about five black dudes in the handful of Mexicans, maybe. Yeah, but all very white. And I was just like very white, very clean town. Love the reason.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_06

Hey, get on in, pal.

SPEAKER_05

Come on in, pick 'em up. We got room. Pick 'em up. No, it was a really bitching place. Colorado in general. Like we went to summer. I would I I'm not a big snow guy. Just because I work in the snow. And I don't like to work in snow. But to go play in the snow. But snow, if I was retired, fuck it, dude.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I guess I'm locked down for a few days. You know, it's expensive as shit, but another place I would recommend during the snow that's beautiful is Park City, Utah. Where like Wasash Brewery is at Park City. Bro. Oh. It's like it's like the Aspen of Colorado. Park City. Okay, that's that for Utah. So yeah. And you can still have many wives. Yeah? Hey. Bro, one thing annoys me. You think I'm gonna have two? One annoys me.

SPEAKER_05

Well, if you have two, you can Nah, bro.

SPEAKER_02

One annoys the shit.

SPEAKER_05

Two would suck because they would team up on you.

SPEAKER_03

You gotta get a kick.

SPEAKER_05

You get a third one. You gotta get an odd number.

SPEAKER_03

Maybe three, four.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, that way you're like, fuck them three. You know. I chose you tonight.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, not because they kicked me out.

SPEAKER_05

That's where they mutiny on you, and then you're fucked, man. Nothing like having five bitches mad at you.

SPEAKER_02

Bro, imagine. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. This whole multiple wives thing doesn't drive with me because I barely have a hard time keeping one happy. I get you. You try keeping five happy, bro. Not gonna happen.

SPEAKER_05

I don't think you really have to keep them happy.

SPEAKER_02

They have to each other. Okay, so then then then we go back to that again. That it has to be a cult always, where they're brainwashed and doing whatever it is you tell them because you want to hope that they're all together. If you got just you know, your regular off the street, you know, stuff. Oh yeah, like fuck that motherfucker. What they wouldn't be with the idea, but let's just say for Whatever reason they're okay with the idea, all that other shit would have been in your mind, is what you'd hope.

SPEAKER_05

You know, oh, they're all all the wives are getting together today, they're doing uh scrapbooks or something. Yeah, and and they're gonna just talk about how great I am. Yeah, yeah. You know.

SPEAKER_03

In reality, they're like piss each other off about you.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, in reality, they're like, oh, that motherfucker. He got all mad and went to your place, you know, and then they're fighting. Oh my god. This seems like a recipe for disaster.

SPEAKER_03

Recipe for disaster.

SPEAKER_05

But we were talking about Colorado anyway. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yes. Yeah. Speaking of multiple wives.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. But yeah, Colorado, I'd love to live there, even in the winter, once I retire.

SPEAKER_05

So that's true. Well, speaking of that, we we came across the short through YouTube watching those little stupid shorts. Crazy weird shit that you find in Australia. Well, this wasn't even a short, this was like a a little video. Right. Me and Kate sat down and watched it. He goes to Australia and he's walking this trail. And it's like a mile-long trail or something. Nothing huge. And he's lifting a hundred rocks to see what kind of shit they find. Bugs, your snakes. And I go out to have a stogie and fucking around in the kitchen and go outside and I come back and she's like, You're fucking right. Yeah, never go to Australia. The the bugs were just bizarre. Finally found a snake on the last one, but just the bugs themselves, they're shooting fucking acid at you. Dude, you gotta be careful over there.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, we're going to mostly city places. So and doing doing that. And staying with our buddy who lives in a suburban neighborhood, you know.

SPEAKER_05

So you're not going way out back. No, we're not going fucking down and you're gonna take any kind of I don't know what they have, safari tours or some what do they have?

SPEAKER_02

No, so Steve and I want to do more um suburbany. So like no offense to the wives, and I know she'll never hear this, but like no offense to the wife. Like when I when Jen and I go on vacation, I want to like, oh fuck, there's a fucking tram rider. There's like fucking, you know, uh uh uh uh yeah, a little tour, trolley tours and shit. No, no, no, tour tourists will do, but I'm talking like the dangerous shit. I'm gonna go punchy jumping, I'm gonna go cliff diving and jump into the water from this spot.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, fucking fucking box of kangaroo, baby.

SPEAKER_02

Right, exactly. And Jen's like, I don't think we should do that in Baltimore. She's probably right, and she's right. So with Steve and I now unsupervise, we're gonna go and just do all that shit that you're not supposed to do. You know, that's true, that's just you two.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, dude, you guys are gonna fucking die.

SPEAKER_02

Or with our buddy Grant, too. But but yeah, but we're gonna die. That's what there's a shot. Jen's like, I'm gonna get a life insurance on you before you hit out, just in case.

SPEAKER_05

That's fucking funny. But I think she should.

SPEAKER_02

You just oh no, dude. Because Steve and I were like, well, dude, what if they have like like fly fishing and go like not fly fishing, but we can go like boat fishing, you know, where there's great whites all over the fucking water. Yeah, let's go.

Yeah, she wouldn't.

SPEAKER_02

And Steve's like, let's go skydiving. He goes, You want to go skydiving? I'm like, fuck yeah, dude. I would love to.

SPEAKER_05

SPEAKER_02

Oh, then you go, yeah. What's that thing called? Did you guys have to parachute in the army?

SPEAKER_05

No, you didn't have to unless you go to like uh 82nd Airborne.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_05

We did repelling out of helicopters. Okay. But no, I didn't go to airborne school. They told you when you get in, oh yeah, you get to fucking do that stuff, you know. And then you're like, eh. And then everyone in basic training thinks, oh dude, we're gonna when do we jump out of planes? Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're like, ah, you don't do that, man. That's like you gotta sign up for that. No, our our guy told us we could do that. We sign up when we get in. He's like, no, no. Sorry. No, I didn't do that. But I did it with Josh Wosecchi out here in Cottonwood. In tandem? Yeah. Was it fun? It it turned out to be fun.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. Were you nervous about it the whole time?

SPEAKER_05

No. No, no, no. Not until our fucking chute wouldn't open and it opened and got tangled for about twenty seconds. And then it untangled. To the point where you're just about saying goodbye to everyone. Yeah, yeah. Like, fuck, man, I go do this. Isn't this ironic?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, this is how I die.

SPEAKER_05

And fucking the guy was really good, man. So we we opened the chute way late. Well, it opened, so all you had was that little uh baby one. Yeah. And our chute was twisted around it. So I'm just like fucking, ah, dude, fucking. He's like, oh fuck. Like, I look up and we're like, We okay? Like, we're jamming, dude. He's like, hold on, we'll get that. Then all of a sudden it was just like almost whiplash me, and it was real low to the ground, dude. So it was a little hairy, but I like that experience better than the smooth one, because now I got something. You got a story to do that. So we came in so hot, like we were supposed to come in, and you kind of you wore these fucking weird big jumpsuits that were padded, you know? Yeah. Like I'm not thick enough. I got this fucking I look like a Michelin man, dude. I was just puffy and so he's like, put your feet up, point your heels out, toes up, we're coming down on our ass. We hit so fucking hard. I got the video, dude. I'll bring it out, dude. Because I bought the well Josh, he paid for this and thanks, Josh. But we hit the fucking ground so hard that I bounced about four feet and then boom again. You're in the gravel like a landing zone, and it was just coming in hot, coming in hot, dude. Boom, boom. And I put my hands down of the whole fucking place. There's one bush or something, and I put my hand in it. I have thorns all in my hands.

SPEAKER_01

We get out of my fucking yeah, you're like, I have and I'm like, ah it was crazy, and then yeah, it was it was fun, but like the free fall.

SPEAKER_05

For me, it's kind of oh, I did it. Yeah. Not going, hey man, I can't wait to go jump again. Right, right, right. I did it, I'm done, I'm good. It's a trip, dude.

SPEAKER_02

Like experience for life, and then that's all I needed.

SPEAKER_05

When you get out, your fucking feet dangling out. I mean, this plane looked like it shouldn't have even been in the air. It was so crusty and bolts were fucking falling out, dude. I got a crazy video of this shit, man. It's all rusty inside. There's the panels are jingling. I get my feet dangling out. And it was just like, fucking go, and you come out spinning and leaving out. It's all fucking it's such a it's hard to explain, like it's so fast and intense, right? Yeah, it's just you're so high and you see the ground getting closer, your cheeks are going, you know, you're fucking flapping, you're like, oh fuck. And then we have a malfunction. You know, it changes your whole perspective experience of it. I'm not like, oh, look how beautiful it is down there. I'm like, come on, dude.

SPEAKER_02

You know, fix the shit. I don't want to die this way.

SPEAKER_05

Because I had a good ten seconds of knowing that you're falling to your death. And I don't know how much time he had because by the time I told him, he'd already knew. He he was already fucking with. I could tell because he was doing weird shit, man. I'm like, you should be pulling that shoot, huh? Yeah. He's just like, we're still going. And I remember looking up like this, like, and he's like, we got it, we're alright, dude. We're alright. Stay calm. And I'm like, I was calm. What the fuck did you stay calm? I was calm. What do you mean stay calm? It was wow. And it gives you a little jolt of block, dude. Yeah. But we had another 10 seconds of it not opening, and then all of a sudden that whole woo-woo and it just whipped us up. He's like, we're gonna be coming in hot, okay? I need you to leave here. Now he's throwing all these fucking demands. Like, I'm just a dude on long for the ride. What's going on, man? My heels up, like heels up? Do I need to flip my feet? What do you mean, heels up? No, put your heels up. I'm like, oh fuck. So it was a little scary with the landing, but I could tell like I wouldn't die. We we slowed down enough. I'm like, this might fuck me up, but I'm like, Oh man, I came in, that dude was great, man. And I bounced on my ass. Had a good time. I'll pull the video out because it's sitting right on my counter. And I just got a VCR. Well, not VCR, but uh DVD player player.

SPEAKER_02

That's so funny. We had to buy one because you can't watch your old shit. Yeah, yeah. Well, we burned a lot of DVDs. Right and they won't play on my Xbox anymore. Like I think Microsoft and all these things fix it so that your bootleg DVDs don't work on shit. They work on shit. So I had to buy a cheap $20 DVD.

SPEAKER_05

And it works and they work now on my on my burnt shit like PlayStation. Because I have a PlayStation and it won't work on well, I have every PlayStation. It wouldn't work on my PlayStation or PlayStation 2 or 4 or 5. But three would be. But I have a three in there. And that shit played in there and it played. But now I don't I don't even have the cords for it. I got the shell. The big old boxy bullshit. I'm like, so I I think I gave it away.

SPEAKER_02

Did you have a case of like a thousand DVDs all burnt?

SPEAKER_05

Burning shit was the shit. It was the shit, dude. Kids, you kids today don't know. Burning shit was so hot and and then I like the internet just came out, and you could buy this little thing that you take apart your PlayStation 2 and then you solder this. It came with the direction. Solder there's four wires. Boom da boom to boom to boom. And it turns your PlayStation 2 able to play DVDs read uh burnt copies of games. Oh shit. So this thing cost me 50 bucks. I'm like 50 bucks to try it. I had folders like this. Of just games. Of burnt games. Like you'd burn them like you're burning a CD. Yeah. So it was like fuck, man. Everyone came over just brought me games and I'd book it games. Burn it. And it's right on there, you know, Dragon Slayer. Fucking Tomb Raider. Yeah, I had them all, dude, and they all worked. Fuck. But once people figure that shit out, yeah, then they stop. Boom. So now yeah, you can't watch burnt shit. This is a well, I guess it's gotta be burnt, but it's got a sticker on it. Yeah. This is uh skydiving or whatever.

SPEAKER_02

No, we had the the stickers where you were able to print the image. Yeah. And then you do the thing with the sticker on the Dude.

SPEAKER_05

I had the whole rig, dude, because I was making so many burnt CDs back in the day. I had a whole rig to cut the circle. You put your sticker on this round deal.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it would punch the punch the center out and fucking glue it to the top.

SPEAKER_05

Pictures of me standing there by the ocean and shit, dude. I'm like, my ocean mix. You know? You got these stupid ones off sublime and sting. And then you get lazy. Like I'd find an old like JPEG or 8-bit fucking guitar, it'd be like acoustic hits. You know, I'd make labels for everything, dude. If I'd burn a real CD, I would go get the real image. But it's all like matte and stupid. This ain't real. Circle K sold shitty tapes. They were like cream, they were weird colors and shitty tape.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_02

No, where's the where's the lyrics? Dude, the one thing I regret that I can't find anymore are like when uh bands were doing things. We used to go watch you know shows and you'd have these obscure weird bands, and they would burn their CDs and like give out. And dude, I had so many cool bands that I was like, oh dude, these guys fucking rock. Cannot find those CDs.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. Yeah, dude, because I lost all my LA. I was in LA and it was just these weird, obscure bands. You'd go watch these bands to go open up for, you know, maybe one semi-known band, and they would like they would they would give out their CD or sell it, you know, for like two, three bucks because it was a copy. And we'd sign it too. And they would sign it for you and everything, and then you'd we you'd have these cool bands, and then Yeah, I got a collection.
