Outside The Shop
A podcast with husband and wife about life with random guest.
Outside The Shop
Chicken Sized Horses and Backwards Knees
Family conversations can reveal profound truths, especially when microphones are involved. In this freewheeling discussion, I'm joined by my wife Caitlinn and my brother Jeff with his wife Katy for a raw, unfiltered exploration of life's unexpected lessons.
The dynamic shifts from playful sibling ribbing to heartfelt revelations as we debate whether NFL players earn too much (they bring in the revenue, so perhaps not), and share stories about the people who unexpectedly shaped our lives. Jeff's admission that our Uncle Jamie stepped in during our parents' divorce reveals family dynamics I hadn't fully appreciated before. Meanwhile, Caitlinn reflects on how meeting Tim transformed her from "party girl" to someone finding lasting connection.
We dive into hard-earned wisdom - learning to set boundaries, recognizing when to walk away, and the universal truth that "it's not what you know, but who you know." How advice initially struck as nonsense, but years later, we watched doors open through connections that knowledge alone couldn't provide.
The conversation takes several hilarious turns as we debate whether fighting one horse-sized chicken would be easier than battling 100 chicken-sized horses, and which animals would be rudest if they could talk (our consensus: possums with Boston accents). Through shared stories about influential teachers, escape room strategies gone wrong, and Jeff's broken arm football tale, we capture the essence of family bonds - messy, genuine, and unexpectedly profound.
Subscribe for more raw conversations where nothing is off-limits and everyone leaves knowing a little more about themselves and each other.
Well, hello, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Outside the Shop. My name is Timothy McCollum, here with my beautiful wife, caitlin. Hi, I'm Caitlin, hello, hi, this is a great episode we have because we have great guests. Oh, I'll introduce them. That's cool. You guys can't see, but I was literally going to let her introduce them, but I'm the introducer on this thing. Dude, we're ready to freaking party. Dude, let's go.
Speaker 1:I am here with my one and only brother and his wife. He's not my one and only brother. Just watch jeff and katie, you guys. Yeah, there you go. Uh, we're a little rusty, guys, it's been a minute. Um, you guys probably know me from my old podcast. Literally no one will listen to this podcast. Listen to that one Nobody. My dad, dude, he did listen to this. Yeah, see, yeah, jeff had a lot of the topics I did on that podcast came from him, actually, and some came from Katie. We'll give her some credit, yep, I think. One question, dude, we'll take them all. I had my wife on a whole episode one time. Shout out to Josh, I know he's going to listen to this. That's really nice.
Speaker 1:Well, guys, how are y'all doing today? Good, it's a beautiful weekend in Amarillo this weekend. We're having a good time. It's Amarillo. Okay, so I'm having a good time. They're just chilling. Look guys, they are so new to this. We are, I'm chilling. Look guys, they are so new to this. We are. I'm a virgin to this channel. Dude, you just conversate, it becomes easy, it's so natural.
Speaker 1:And uh, well, this is our, uh, second episode. Yep, and it is going to be a good one. It's going to be a real good one. The best thing, the best thing about this second episode, is we haven't recorded the first. You guys won't know that until you listen to this one, because it'll be released second.
Speaker 1:Welcome to our second overall episode. It's good to have our first guest. I'm glad it's you guys. Thanks for doing it, thanks for having us. This weekend you were staying in my house.
Speaker 1:I never chose to. Well, you had a small choice. You could have said no. Yeah, I could have. I think you kind of wanted to when I told you it was going to be 830 when we started. Yeah, do you work tomorrow? Yeah, unfortunately.
Speaker 1:Okay, what do you do for a living? I'm not a fan. Well, tim, I'll work at the railroad. If you didn't know, dude, congratulations. When did you get that job? A year and a half ago.
Speaker 1:Okay, well, katie, what do you do for a living? I can see a facility. Oh man, you could have just lied. Dude, no one on here is going to have any idea. They have no idea Me. They don't know Me.
Speaker 1:I manage a football team A few of them actually. I got three fantasy football teams and college football, ncaa 26. That's my second time job right there. Recruiting is a full-time job. That's what they're studying. Somebody says I don't know who, but somebody will say that that's what you guys do. They already know what we do because they heard the first episode, mm-hmm.
Speaker 1:Dude, you know what's great about this? We have no rules, we have no layout or anything, so we get to talk about whatever we want. That's a problem, because I don't know what I want to talk about. Whatever we want, well, that's a problem, because I don't know what I want to talk about. You can figure it out. See, the thing about it is is we just get to go with the flow. On this podcast. There's no editing. This is all raw, so that's kind of how we do it. Uh, sorry to the other listeners, I'll stop there. Uh, well, on the drive here, this is a good question for you guys. Me and katie got to discuss it on the drive here. My wife, katie I'm gonna have to, that's gonna be tough with the devil. Katie's here, yeah, um, my legal name is caitlin, yeah, so well, you know why don't you ask him the question you asked me on the drive here about the, uh, football players. That's a. It's a really good, good conversation to have and it's interesting.
Speaker 1:I gave my opinion and I'll give it again, obviously. Do you guys think that NFL players get paid too much? Yeah, yeah, I don't know what they get paid. For instance, for example, there's about 10 quarterbacks who make from about $45 to $50 million a year. So, yeah, it's a little excessive football. That's crazy. See, I had a counter argument with it too, because my ultimate answer is I think they probably do make too much money realistically, but they also get paid what they bring in. They bring in a lot of revenue. So if you bring in revenue, you would. You deserve the payout of revenue.
Speaker 1:It's kind of like me with my haircuts. Obviously, if I had an example, or just like thousands and thousands of people willing to pay me hundreds of dollars for a haircut, I'd do it. I would do it. But the thing I mean that's the case. Right, I'm going to lose 90% of my clients, but if I had over 100,000 people that's wanting to pay, that I'm going to do that. So, like football players, they're getting paid what they're bringing in. So, like for Patrick Mahomes' example, he makes $45 million a year.
Speaker 1:People pay to go watch him play. They pay the money. Do I think ticket prices are expensive? Absolutely? Do I think ticket prices are expensive Absolutely? Do I pay him to go watch the experience? Yeah, because I'm an idiot, baby. You've never paid, actually paid to go. Well, yeah, you've gone with other people, or I took you once. What's mine is yours and what's yours is mine. That's a good saying, tim, I like that. Yeah, dude, sometimes I got jokes that I want to say and I got to tone it down a bit Because there is one. But I don't want to get us canceled on our second episode. That's fun, though. We'll start another one.
Speaker 1:So this beautiful podcast today is going to be brought to you guys by. I put together a whole list. I was just kidding with you guys. I have a whole thing here. I made this up myself, the questions and all were brought to you by me. Oh, yeah, in my notes. That's what you just. Yeah, I was doing it in here the whole time I was getting ready for this and going through the game planning. That's what I thought too. Yeah, that's why it took me so long. I wasn't drafting my fantasy football team at all. I planned to win. You got last last year. Whoa in one of my leagues, never got last in the other leagues Me personally, I never let my wife talk to me like that If you're not first, you're last.
Speaker 1:So tell us a little bit about yourself, jeff. Where do you work? We'd like to know who you are. Well, tim, I have known you for the last 25 years of my life. That's good. So we've known each other since you were born. Yeah, well, you've known me since I was born.
Speaker 1:I don't know about the other way around. Oh my God, that's crazy. That's what happens. I feel like we've known each other your whole life. That's what happens when your parents don't like each other and have unprotected sex. Anyway, well, I think that means they do like each other. I mean, 15 years down the road. I grew up with them they didn't like each other.
Speaker 1:Anyway, dude, I can't wait for dad to listen to this. Good for him. Let's hope he's still on his current wife by then. Can't wait for her to listen to this too, with him in the truck while they're driving. Dude, I'm going to go see you. Her new mom might not find me too funny.
Speaker 1:Uncle Jamie listens to all of my podcasts. Good Hi, uncle Jamie, we'll get a text for this one. I hope so. Good Hi, uncle Jamie, we'll get a text for this one. I hope so. So when did you two guys meet?
Speaker 1:You don't have to say your age, dude. You could say the year 2017. Dang, yeah, he didn't know that. He knew how old he was. He was doing the math in his head. We're not good at math.
Speaker 1:In 2017, then we got married in 2023, nice, 2022, oh, not 23 february 23. Yeah, thanks, man. Can't wait for your guys' wedding. I'm so glad I was able to marry you guys. Yeah, yeah, thanks, jim. No problem at all. Dude, you didn't marry us. That was good. People aren't here going to think I'm joking. Yeah, he's not. He did, he did Sort of. Anyway, I was getting out of the army. I got married. You were in the army, I was in the army, dude. We're learning so much about you, dude. This is, that's crazy. Tell me if James is going to hear you. You ask him this. Anyway, I'm going to ask him, dude, I can't wait to ask him how long I've known him, how long he's been a seaman. For we got to pause on the break. Katie's leaving. She said I'm fucking done with this podcast. She's spraying the dots. Anyway, in the Army four years Got out. Now I live in Amarillo.
Speaker 1:Did you enjoy it? Yeah, it was fun. You sound very enthusiastic about it. That's good. I promise, dude, I can tell you right now. Trump's not listening to this. I will. Uncle Don, I wish Donnie boy, if he was, please, please, build the shop up for Kyle. Yeah, please, don't need my VA disability rating to go up some more. That's what I would tell him Through the roof. Dude, through the roof, I'd say this is going good guys, this is fun. I think Chief wants to say something. Chief, would you like to sniffle something Interesting? Very good, he's into the podcast, I know. Why didn't he lead it?
Speaker 1:His name's Chief Chief is the dog, one of the dogs. He's a good boy and he's got a good name. Why'd you name's Chief? Chief is the dog one of the dogs. He's a good boy and he's got a good name. Why'd you name him Chief? Because you're native? Yeah, that was half of it.
Speaker 1:Don't want, I wanted to name him. I couldn't name him KC Wolf, so, dude, you could have named him after the superfan. I could have Robin Banks. Yeah, well, I didn't name him KC Wolf, so I had to go. Dude, you could have named him after the superfan. I could have Robin Banks. Yeah, well, I didn't want to, so you named him. Anything. To go to a Chiefs game, I guess? Yeah, I named him.
Speaker 1:Katie told me she named him. Katie's a liar. His name was Lucky. No, his name's always been Chief. Yeah, always been Chief, always been Chief. And our other dog, colt, his name was Colt. Yeah, his name's always been Colt. Actually, they named him after a gun. Well, I was thinking Indianapolis Colts. But yeah, whatever, you can edit that out. Oh, there's no editing in this. Dude, you say something off the wall. It's stuck. Yeah, it is stuck. So no cussing on this podcast, please, none, oh hell. Yeah, really, that was a good one. Thank you. My dad gave me permission to say that one tonight One time, one time.
Speaker 1:You know why that fan had to rob those banks because nfl players get paid too much and ticket prices are too much. So he had to literally rob banks. What they said what he could have did is just sit at the top with the other people, but he wanted to sit at the 50 yard line, row one. So he was. He didn't have that kind of money. Well, he did he actually. I think he successfully robbed like 10 of them before he got caught and he probably could have that kind of money. Well, he did he actually. I think he successfully robbed like 10 of them before he got caught and he probably could have just. Yeah, he probably should have stopped after like one, but he kept going and kept getting away with it.
Speaker 1:Journal in rush, get more and more money. That's how Jeannie feels at the casino. You know, Dude, I had another I I had a joke. That wasn't where I was going, but I'm going to pause on the one I was going to do. I'll tell you what the joke I had was off the wall, we'll stop soon. Mom, I'm just kidding. I didn't mean that. Yes, you did. It's not funny. So I have a question.
Speaker 1:I like to ask all my clients. A lot of times. It's not on the list. It's just in my head, dude. Yes, I was just gonna let you say what you had to say.
Speaker 1:Dramatic call, I was gonna say, probably not, you just consulted your notes. I did, but it made me think of a question. I asked my clients. Yet, um, the question I like to ask my clients, dude, another thing I have to do that. I started it when I did the old podcast. I said, um a lot, and I don't want to do that in this one. I didn't do it later on because I got real comfortable with talking in the camera, which, by the way, I know it sounds crazy much easier it is when you're looking into the camera and you realize it's like you're talking to something, somebody. It's probably a lot easier if we actually put topics together, but that's boring and I'm learning really quick that me and Josh flowed because we had something to follow.
Speaker 1:But the question I would ask is or I do ask all the time if you were a UFC fighter, what would your walkout song be? That's a good one. It's one of my favorite questions. It's really intriguing because it's like you can go so many different ways. Obviously, like I love, hypnotized by Conor McGregor, but he already has it. So my walkout song would be Welcome to Jam Rock by Damian Marley Trying to burn like a diamond. I mean not anymore actually. No, he retired, but that really wasn't his walkout song. His walkout song is the Boss by James Brown. He only used that one time. Yeah, it is Peg the cost to beat a pose, but I love. Welcome to Jam Brock. Damian Marley it's one of my favorites. I don't know, it just gets me pumped Out in the streets. They call it murder. I have to pick something off the wall that would throw everybody off. Well, one time Dude well, it's funny, you say that.
Speaker 1:One time Mike Perry, ufc fighter boxer he's kind of a little bit of everything bare knuckle boxer now wanted to walk out to the Halo theme song. So he told him he wants to walk out to Halo. He walked out to Halo by Beyonce. He said the video was hilarious because he's like what he's like this is the wrong song. And then he just starts singing. He's taking his shirt off singing and he's gone all out. Dude, it is so funny when you get to that level, you're just like dude. And you know what's even better about that. You got to roll with it.
Speaker 1:He fired all his corner men and his coach. The only person in his corner in that fight was his wife, his girlfriend. He was dating her I don't think they're married. His girlfriend and he wrong song had no team. Wow, why did he fire them all? Oh, he said they weren't doing a good job. He didn't think they were preparing him good enough to win, so he just had his girlfriend do it to show him that you don't need a team to win. And then he won and I actually think he finished the guy I don't remember who he fought, it's been a while back ago. Ain't finished a guy. I'd watch that.
Speaker 1:What song would you go out to? I don't even know. We can have Katie do it. The first song that gets in my mind is I have a Type. Yeah, see, the first song is the one you should go with, because it's probably, like it's probably been kind of in your head already. You know, you didn't, you didn't even realize it, but it probably is. What about you? Um, my first thought was rides by katie perry. Oh dang, yeah, I thought he was gonna like go like a death metal song for a second. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you didn't have one song. Well, he said hello, barbie, yeah, but that's just some off the wall. I don't know like jeff to come out to like coulter wall or something, see, see that cody jinks, that would be, that would be, but that that just doesn't go with like a USB. No, it doesn't. Man, you could do like Linkin Park, maybe. Yeah, you keep looking at that. Well, hello, chief Coming to the mast over here. You suck a boy, you suck a boy. What would Chief's walkout song be? Oh, dude, that's a great question. Hmm, I think Jeff's walkout song would be probably some like native drums or something. Yep, and all I think of is Kyle, because I've seen the movie is here Comes the Boom. So I'm going to ask him when we get him in or when his would be, but I feel like his song would be here Comes the Boom.
Speaker 1:Does the Army have a theme song? Yeah, they have the Army song. There you go. If you walk down to that, the Army song, that'd be good. I've been working on it already. When it comes to your mind, you throw it out there.
Speaker 1:Okay, when you get a song, it doesn't matter what point of the podcast, we're in the middle of a conversation, maybe like war pigs. You know, war pigs is good. Yeah, it's good. Yeah, you gotta get past the. You know the 10 minute intro where they start singing, but other than that it's good. Well, that's how, like some of the songs you can like, sinhead o'connor is what Conor McGregor walks out to, but when it gets to like after the intro part of like just the musical part she starts singing. He switches it to Hidden Times by Biggie. So they do mix. It's kind of like Dustin Poirier did when he did Shine Bright. I like it. And then when he mixed it with the I don't know like john's boss, funny, I think that might be trademarked. Only john cena can probably walk out to it, but you can't see him anyway. Well, that may not be true because israeli at a sonic came out to undertaker. So who knows who the heck knows?
Speaker 1:I want to get into some deep stuff. Yeah, let's do it. Me too. All the time, dude, I freaking. Oh, shoot, it's a bug. Is it real? No, it's not. I don't know what it was. Not a bug, I promise guys we do not have bugs in our house. Okay, don't be taking that. I was going to say his dog got ticks one time. No, christ, you're wrong. It's not even a tick. An emerald tick is a bug. Yeah, dude, I think it's a tree piece of bark. It came off the dog. I don't know where it came from. Who knows what it is. Honestly, could have been shit, I don't know. I could have wiped and not wash my hands, good enough, and it dried up, wipe my shirt. What's this deep topic? You say Deep topic? Wow, who is somebody that unexpectedly played a big part in your life? Patrick Mahomes. Me too. Thank the Lord for Brett Beach and the Hunt family and Andy Reid and Matt Nagy for giving him a fake playbook so he could draft him. Shout out to Patrick Mahomes Remember watching?
Speaker 1:We went to that game Texas Tech versus Oklahoma State when the only reason we beat them 45-44 is because we blocked the field goal at the last second. But that dude torched us all game. Also, when he gave me a shitty haircut right before we went, I'll never forget that. Wear a hat. Well, I didn't bring one, so I don't give shitty haircuts anymore. They're much better now. He was like well, I'll just do like a five guard all the way around. We'll call it good. That's what happened. It could have been a three. It could have been a two or a one or a zero.
Speaker 1:Jamie said a funny story. She was going to see her big there, little or whatever, yeah, her big, and she was fucking five foot tall and I was like she's not that big. And I asked her when she was going to get a little one. She was like I don't go to college here anymore. And I was like, oh, that's your sorority. Mm-hmm, what sorority were you in Trisigma? They're in recruitment right now. I just saw they did that. Big was at the alumni. She was like had, that's cool. Going back, for what? Being in the sorority? I'm always in it, it's a sisterhood. Oh, thank you. You said no, you were in the army.
Speaker 1:You don't know how this works, dude. All the military listeners on here are either going to love it or hate it. They'll love it. I know. I know All four of them, the listeners or the army. I hope we get 10, dude, I hope we get 10. You know, if we get to 50 on the first episode, we're pretty good, we're rolling. That's good numbers in the first. So who knows? So if I just play it 50 times, will that work?
Speaker 1:Yeah, okay, that's our mission anyways, jeff, you want to answer the question first? Who, uh, who is the most? Who's the person that unexpectedly played a big role in your life? Uh, I'll, probablyfully I wouldn't say unexpectedly, but probably on Jamie. Honestly, fuck, god, dang dude. I'm driving back home tonight. Dude, not the answer I was expecting. Oh, you too, I meant you. It's cool. I can't wait till James gets on here so he can say Nana, and then I can be left out again. Fuck, dang it. I hope one of my siblings say me Golly, kyle's going to say something I don't even know. But yeah, so, uncle Jamie, that would be your answer. Yeah, definitely, would. I mean right after our parents got a divorce. Our parents got a divorce. My parent has got a divorce several times. My dad, our mom, got a divorce.
Speaker 1:Yeah, uncle Jamie, just like, took me every weekend, did everything. There's a green light on this. Green is good, right? Yeah, I'm sure it's fine. Let me see your mic real quick, dude. I bet you just hit the button on the side, the little yellow button. I just wanted to make sure I was hearing him. Oh, yeah, it's fine. Let me see your mic real quick, dude. I bet you just hit the button on the side, the little yellow button. I just want to make sure it's hearing you. Oh yeah, it's hearing him. There you go. It's hearing you Hearing me now, or it should have been hearing you before. If not, you'll be a little muff for a little bit. And Uncle Jamie, I hope it was not hearing you. Go ahead. Yeah, and Uncle Jamie, I hope it was not hearing you go ahead.
Speaker 1:No, uncle Jamie just took me in, especially me, and Brandy, treated me like I was their own kid after our parents got a divorce. Yeah, he really took care of me, and earlier you said my dad and your mom, that's our mom. Are you telling me I'm adopted? You could be? I don't know. Ask Uncle David, dude, I'm adopted, you could be. I don't know. Ask Uncle David Dude.
Speaker 1:I'm going to call him here in a little bit. I've got to have a word with him. Go ahead, katie. I said go ahead. That's so rude. I'm going to pass to Katie. Oh, wow, I'm going to go after Katie. Dang, she's definitely.
Speaker 1:You grew up in a loving family, she don't, dude, I can't wait till she says you, old buddy, old pal, I still choose patrick, my arms. I mean it would be timothy, you're welcome. Hey, dude. No, I can't say my answer. Patrick Mahomes? No, who? You would say me. I said you, I know I don't have to go to Amarillo anymore. I mean back home from Amarillo now, because I actually got an answer here, so that's good. Yeah, not the one I expected. Sorry, thank you. What would yours be? Why me, huh, why me, unless you want Katie to go next? Oh, you mean you is my answer. Why? Yeah, yeah, no, I'll go next.
Speaker 1:Yeah, how to go so far back? Well, you, just you changed my life a lot. I was this party girl at college, living life. It was really fun and you were like, hey, you should probably tone it down a little bit, come see me and so, whatever. We hung out a lot and I'm still in love with you, like the past million years. It's a long time, I don't know, I feel like we're in a Twilight years. Wow, it's a long time. I don't know. I feel like we're in a Twilight movie. It's that weather.
Speaker 1:Before I answer, katie, did you like the Twilight movies? I've never seen them, I know. I just wanted everybody else to know that too. That's listening that you've never seen them. I don't watch movies, it's okay. Uh, caitlin, I was gonna say katie again, but as people are gonna get really confused.
Speaker 1:When we got together, she didn't watch movies either. She watched her movies, but there were so many movies I introduced her to fast and furious wasn't one of them, so she had watched those before. Katie, put me on the friends. You like friends? Uh, I never watched it until y'all lived in the apartment one glimple, oh, or the rent house. I hate friends. Oh, hi, the apartment, no, no, no. After, well, we lived in like a like like a town home. Yeah, yeah, that one, that one, that was the first time I watched it. Yes, I stayed with y'all for a weekend and both y'all had work on saturday, so I just did nothing but watch friends and play with moose. What a good day.
Speaker 1:Rip, he didn't die. He's just back at the shelter. Yeah, he's not. I mean he's dead to y'all. He like he ate the door, the bathroom door and the siding on the house and the mattress. It was just too much because we were both in school. We weren't home enough to give him attention, poor fellow, I know. Yeah, he was a good dog, though. He just needed somebody that could be with him all the time. All the time, yeah, because when he, when somebody was with him. He was good, but they weren't. He was kind of a little asshole, tearing a whole door. I'd never seen a dog eat a door in a mattress and siding on a house. Until that dog, I was like God dang, you're like a goat, dude, jesus, weasel, he'd eat anything. Speak, another goat. Let's go back to Katie. I another go, let's go back to Katie.
Speaker 1:I don't know what my answer would be. Somebody, unexpectedly, it's going to make our answer seem like dude, we're rude. They're going to think y'all hate us. Tim was my choice. I was going to say why. No, they're going to think we hate, y'all hate us. Tim is my choice. I was gonna say why? No, they're gonna think we hate y'all. Is what he meant to say. Yeah, oh, they do. She got closer to her mic. She's like they do. I don't know. I guess I could really say anyone, yeah, I don't know about.
Speaker 1:Unexpectedly, a lot of people change my life in a lot of ways, me too. Unexpectedly, it was definitely Kyle, honestly, because growing up I obviously was really close to Corey, which you know, we're like the same age and then as I got older, kyle lived around the corner and naturally came around a lot more and then we unexpectedly just never separated. We hung out all the time, still do. What's even funnier about that is Kyle still lives at the same place around the corner as when you were in high school. Yes, he does. Yes, he does.
Speaker 1:Kyle was a great influence on me on my senior year. He will be on this podcast soon but he did a good job of making sure I went to school every day and getting up to school. He never did those things. He came home from work because he worked overnight. He was like dude, don't go to school, let's play 2K. I'm like I've got to go to school. He's like dude, just play a couple of hours. A couple of hours turned into couple hours, turned into like till. He was like all right, I gotta go to sleep, I gotta work. Tonight at one o'clock I was like did I get out of school in an hour? I ain't going anymore. But uh, yeah, kyle stuck around and when our parents got a divorce you know he was he was around a lot. Then he moved in, which is kind of weird. I have pictures of him moving in and then, well, he just never, never, fucking left. Stick around, dude. But yeah, shout out to Kyle Kyle Wayne Brown.
Speaker 1:It's not his name, not his name at all. Well, his real name's Adamtown. So Adam, that's my dog. You guys, it's so good. I changed my answer to Katie Too late now. Can't change them. Mine is not late Myself.
Speaker 1:You guys seem a little sleepy today. We are. This is a slower podcast. Not, you slept, for you had it, took a five hour nap and it was wonderful. Both y'all took naps today long. Yeah, we brunched really three, three hours. Yeah, mine was like four and a half. Yeah, dude. Yeah, you guys were hammered. Shout out to Cracker Barrel, cracker Barrel, dude, they were stumbling out of Cracker Barrel. It was insane. I was like, bro, y'all had one mimosa, sorry, two, two mimosas. Get it right, dude. One of them was a pitcher Getting shit-faced with the old folks. A pitcher, we shared it with the four of us. Yeah, shout out to Cracker Barrel. I'm glad they're not changing. Shout out to Cracker Barrel. They didn't even post this when we just done the dash. So that's good, I know, dude. Thank goodness, man, we were on the news for not playing.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh, that would be insane, dude, if you had a smell that followed you around forever, like everywhere you went and you walked by. People smelled it. What would you want it to smell like? I have two answers Either 1 million or that good fellow number nine. Mine's the Victoria's Secret bombshell. Oh yeah, victoria's Secret bombshell is a good one. Mine's what I use. What's my nickname? Lane Frost, with the female version. Lane Frost oh, that's, that's literally. Yeah, lane frost. Yeah, I think it's called legendary. Oh yeah, but the female version, yeah, I like that a lot.
Speaker 1:I want to go kind of neutral. Maybe mahogany teakwood is not neutral. It's very manly smell, but it's good though. But I'd probably go with leather. Oh, dude, I could definitely go with some leather. Have you ever smelled that diva wash? Diva wash, yeah, maybe not here. Let me go get it. Is it bath and body works? No, it's diva wash. Oh yeah, yeah, I wouldn't want it to be something like super strong. Oh yeah, dude, if you smelled like that walking around, I'd walk away.
Speaker 1:So you'd want to smell like linen. That's actually not a bad smell. I could do leather, for sure. Leather would. I could do leather if someone was. I could do leather If someone was like do you smell like leather? Fresh linen would be a good one. To always smell good like laundry. Yeah, that would mean, I mean, just basic soap wouldn't even be the worst idea, in the world at least. But I'd want to up it up a little bit.
Speaker 1:Either leather or mahogany teak would probably be one of my two options. Give me one of the two. Yeah, yeah, I'm Probably be one of my two options, you know, give me one of the two, yeah, hmm, yeah, I'm still going with that number. Nine. Nice, if anybody goes and buys these I'm going to contact. If anybody buys these, let me know so I can contact them so we can get some sponsorship. Yes, please, and thank you, so that way we don't have to do this all ourselves. I like how that'll do, tim. Good job man. What have to do this all ourselves? Good job man.
Speaker 1:What's one lesson you had to learn the hard way? Break crates fast enough. There's a joke in that, by the way. You said break crates, not crates, pallets. Yeah, You'll have that on these big jobs. One lesson I had to learned the hard way Living with our father was a pretty good one.
Speaker 1:We get it. Your parents were divorced, you know. Okay, one time, jeff, we were sitting around the table playing Domino's with Chris and Jeff was like talking about something. He was like you know, I like my father-in-lawlaw talking about my dad, and he was like trevor's a good guy, I like him. I wouldn't want him living with me. I look at jeff, as chris is actively fucking living with us.
Speaker 1:I was like, really okay, the guy had a broken knee. What was that supposed to mean? You know, he just called me one evening. Me and katie were both sitting there and he could tell. When I answered the phone he was like Jeff, and I was like something's wrong. I could tell your wife leave you. He wouldn't have told me that she did, though she did though. Poor guy. He went through the trenches at the beginning of the year. He was like I slipped on the ice, broke my knee, and I was like, oh dang he. And he was like I slipped on the ice, broke my knee, and I was like, oh dang, he's like I'm going to have to come stay with you for a while. I was like, hey, hawaii is available. But I guess that option was off the table, dude, all I know is I'm glad y'all's table made it.
Speaker 1:Playing dominoes with him oh no, when we would play I'd have to take out my hearing aids because he would slam the dominoes down and it would just pierce into my ears. Oh yeah, I had to tell him. I was like Dad, you're going to have to quit that. And he was like I forgot, I'm sorry. Same thing with the TV. He'd have that somebody jump to 90. And then he'd be playing his Facebook reels over TV, and then you couldn't hear nothing. And, dad, can you turn down? He's like oh, I didn't even notice, I don't know how dude.
Speaker 1:One of my favorite things, though, is when we were kids and, uh, we had a full working 100 air conditioner and heater, but, uh, we had a wood stove fireplace and, uh, we had an attic fan, which, which is loud too, so, naturally. So, instead of just turning the heater on, well, we would go for the whole entire three months of our summer and first week of school cutting wood and put it in that middle building. Yeah, and that was. I loved doing that. I bet you did. Oh, I'm kidding. Yeah, definitely Satire for sure. And build character. Well, we have a lot of character, that's for sure. I mean, it's unlimited at this point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, what was your question? I forgot One lesson you had to learn the hard way. Oh, yeah, what's a lesson? You had to learn the hard way. You forgot to. No, I didn't forget, I never forget, I forgot. So what was your lesson? Just to recap well, not shooting deer out of the truck window is a pretty good lesson to learn twice. On the good note is I got that bulldog suckers. Yeah, dude, yeah, boy, it's a lesson learned. Yeah, and you still did it again, learned it the second time. I guess that's a pretty good one. Was it expensive? Didn't have to pay it? So that's a pretty good one. Was it expensive? Didn't have to pay it? I don't know. It's actually kind of a hard question. It's like a lesson I had to learn the hard way. You know I've had to learn a lot of hard lessons, but a good one would be.
Speaker 1:I'm still learning to be an Oklahoma State fan. That's never going to go away. I think that might be a lifelong one. That is never going to go away. It's cool, a lesson I had to learn the hard way.
Speaker 1:I think I'm still figuring this out, but I feel like not everybody feels like I feel or thinks the way I think, and so me thinking something about myself or thinking something about other people. Not everybody feels that way and I feel like, I'm still that's a good figuring that out and I still have to remind myself that's actually really good. I know, dang, you want to start a podcast with me. That's really good. Yep, that is really good, I like. I like that because you can kind of go with something you got to work on too. Still, yeah, that's good. I just don't know.
Speaker 1:Did I say my hourly rate, your what? My hourly rate? Alright, you just said that you never mentioned being a counselor but were a therapist or anything of that nature. What did you say, katie, I don't know, maybe not everyone is your friend, like, no matter how nice you are to people, they don't always have the same intentions. And so to just kind of like you know, be mindful of people, yeah, minds know when to be nice, know when to be nice Like the people, and know when not to be Used to not be that way, used to be nice all the time or like mean all the time, mainly nice. It used to be nice all the time. I really didn't time didn't really. Yeah, mainly nice. It used to be nice all the time.
Speaker 1:I really didn't have any kind of assertiveness and I would. I don't want to say be a pushover, but it was kind of that way, you know, just for whatever reason, don't know why, but that was a lesson I had to learn the hard way, that sometimes you just got to push people's buttons and they will understand they can't push yours. And then it becomes like this weird mutual respect. Did it with a lot of clients over the years, a lot of yeah, I had to do that a lot. Learn like assertiveness, because you don't have to be rude, right? No, yeah, exactly, you can just set boundaries and be assertive and sometimes, a lot of times, people respect you more for it. They're like okay, we can't mess with this person.
Speaker 1:Another thing I learned is when to say no. Yes, that's my thing. Say no to drugs, well, dare depends on who you ask. Yeah, shout out, bubba the kobe shot. Yeah, just, kobe shot into the bridge. Hello, colt. Colt made it into the show today, dude, we got cold and chief in here, that little baby Chief's even got his own chair. Now he's chilling. Give him a mic, put it on his collar. Yeah, I had to learn to say no.
Speaker 1:I used to be I don't want to say easily influenced, but not with drugs or anything, just dumb shit, honestly, like people might do it and I'm like I don't know like you can do it and I'm like, okay, I can do it, you volunteer. Yeah, yeah, basically, I mean not with dumb stuff, though, you know. Just no, with dumb stuff, not with serious stuff. You know, like serious stuff it was a little bit harder, but just dumb shit that could hurt me. Or, you know, not smart things you shouldn't do. Yeah, I could definitely. You know, like ding-dong ditch in a cop's house or something like that Could have talked me into that easily. Now I'm like, dude, it's 2 am, they got kids and a wife and they're sleeping and a gun, you're kind of bringing the most important. Yeah, yeah, you know it's like I'm out on that.
Speaker 1:You know, back in the day, long story short, I got talked into throwing a Dr Pepper can out of somebody's window, but not like an empty can, an unopened can, and I threw it and it went through their windshield and they did chase us for a while. You know, just shit like that that. I was like why did I do that? You know, talk to me, they make for great stories. I got a lot of great stupid stories, but you know, that was a lesson I learned. I don't know that I ever got caught, but the guilt definitely can get to you sometimes. I felt I still feel bad about that. I'm like dang, dude, if someone did that to my car, oh, past piss. Yeah, those people quit chasing us. There wouldn't have been no quitting me. It's like oh, brother, I would have kept on keeping on. You know, yeah, I learned to say no.
Speaker 1:What else is on the list for today, guys? What you got there, dude? Nothing, man. It looks like something. Have to believe I can hear it. Oh, dude, I have a perfect answer for this and I'm gonna let you guys answer it. But what's the best advice you've ever ignored? Or what's the best exact? Wow, wow, wow, dude, I can't read, apparently, what's the best advice you ever ignored, but later realized it was true, they worded that wrong, but that's what it says on here word for word. Basically, what's the best advice you've ever got? And you were like, yeah, okay, and then later in life you learned it was true.
Speaker 1:Time goes by fast. Enjoy every moment. That is good. Yeah, it does fly. Probably. Listen to moment. That is good. Yeah, it does fly. You should probably listen to an old man. That's in a young man's job. He's been there for a long time, for a reason Exactly. You should probably listen when he talks. Yeah, dude, before you answer Katie, I've got to answer mine, because this is true.
Speaker 1:So we were at Holloman's one time. It was just me and Dad. We were dropping off Dude. I don't know what we were dropping off, there's no telling. I think it was a washer and dryer that dad told me to fill up with rocks, so it weighed more, and I'm not kidding. And he was like I don't even know what we were talking about. And he was like, dude, and he was talking about people going to college and being smart, because he wanted me to go to college and get a degree and stuff. I was like, yeah, I'm not going to college. He said, if you're not going to go to college, there's one thing you should always know it's not what you know, it's who you know. Dude, when he told me that, I was like, yeah, that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life, dude. Okay, sure, buddy.
Speaker 1:Further I got in life, the more people I met, the more opportunities that came, and I didn't even know half the stuff I was doing. Dude, it's the craziest thing in the world. And now I look back, I'm like you know which this is. I've looked back on this, that quote, for years. I was like you know, because one time I heard somebody else say it and I was like if you know the right people, you can get in the right positions and make a lot of money. Yeah, that's true, very true. He followed that advice since, kind of how he got the job he's in now, I mean, everywhere he goes he knows somebody. I know it's crazy, yeah, you just start.
Speaker 1:And to me it opened up like obviously I'd meet a lot of people, but, dude, I've met so many people out there and sometimes it can be a problem because I know a lot of people. But, dude, I've met so many people out there and sometimes it can be a problem because I know a lot of people who, like me, kitty, go on dates and stuff. It's like, or go do events or something. It's like I always know people. You don't go on a cruise alone, dude, and you see people we know.
Speaker 1:Dude, we were on a cruise one time, our first cruise, and we're like it's a seven-day cruise, we're five days in and I saw aunt barbara on the cruise. I remember that I felt like which I didn't know was her. I hadn't seen her in 15 years. So katie actually went up. I was like, um, are you barbara? She's like yes. I was like, oh, shoot, it's my time to show. I walked up there like conor mcgregor swinging my arms. I was like you know me? Yeah, I had to tell her who I was because she obviously hadn't seen me in like 15 years either. But it's like what up, man barb, how you doing? Adapt her up. And then I saw stephanie and janna and obviously keith and adapt them all up. I was like what's up? Fam, fam, bam. And then turns out they were sitting at the table next to us. Like the whole crew was for dinner. I never even noticed, not even one time, just happened to see her walk by. I was like, wow, what does Aunt Barbie have with those? It's a good thing and a bad thing.
Speaker 1:You know, a lot of people be old. Remember when we were kids and we got like 40 of those bottle calves. We had them in the back pasture right there in Preston. I feel like there's an ending to this story. No, like, do you remember that, though? Like when we had all that? No, oh, bottle caps. Yeah, yes, I thought you said bottle caps, me too, no bottle caps. Yeah, like cows.
Speaker 1:Me, dad, I had poison ivy so I couldn't go to school. And me Dad and Papa Roy went somewhere way off in Texas and we just stopped at a gas station and popper was just walking in there and he just somebody's strolling by, going to get a drink, and he's like oh hey, they just talk it up like 20 minutes and I was like dude, we're seven hours away from the house, like how do you know people? Just know people everywhere. It's crazy. I was like that's what I'm saying. Yeah, did.
Speaker 1:Do you remember when you were slitter bonds as kids? Vaguely, yeah, yeah, you were really small and we were walking around and I saw this guy walk. I was like I know that fellow which I was a kid and dad just goes and walks, shakes his hand, they start talking, having a full conversation. Turns out it was smoky patching, which is crazy. I remember when we went to missouri I remind me of the slitterbond time and tristan, we ran into yeah, it was the slitterbond. Yeah, oh yeah, water park in san an. Okay, people from San Antonio, you're going to get upset that I say that it's not in San Antonio, but it's close enough. Okay, my God, I do remember that. Actually Insane, yeah, crazy.
Speaker 1:How many people you know, how many people you find out, you know, and I just meet a lot of cool people. I met a lot of cool people. Most of my friends now are clients that I've met and hung out with. What about you, katie? I already forgot the question.
Speaker 1:I know, baby, it was advice you ignored that you realized was true. I thought it was somewhere along the lines of who you met and how you met them. Yeah, yeah, I don't know, maybe that nobody really cares in the end 100, or like no one really cares what you do. Yeah, I was in eighth grade and like I care, oh yeah, yeah, like an eighth grade drama, girls and moms like they're not gonna care, you're not gonna care, and I'm gonna know each other views, true, I think a lot of that can be true. I think it's true. I think a lot of that can be true. I think a lot of it. I think a lot of that can be true. I do think there are a lot of people who just point blank don't care, or they don't care like they say they care. But I also think it could be the opposite too, but it's always the least expected.
Speaker 1:You know, it's like like one of my best friends and I can't wait till they lose. I can't wait to have him on garrett and shelby garrett was my client listen to this. This is a crazy story. Garrett was my client, turns out, he's one of my best friends. I love the guy. Today we're it's probably our.
Speaker 1:Was that our first time hanging out with them at the super bowl party? Okay, so they invited us to their super bowl party that they have every year. Yeah, so we're first time meeting everyone. Yeah, so we're like, oh cool, yeah, we'll show up, why not? Yeah, dude, he's smoking chicken and ribs and the Chiefs are playing. I was like, yeah, and we get there. We have a great time. We win the Super Bowl. We're all a little tipsy I don't want to say drunk. We all had a couple of extra, because I was ecstatic and had a little tear rolling down my eye. I was like the second one is our second Super Bowl, wow. And I was like dude, let's go to the Super Bowl parade. You guys want to go?
Speaker 1:Turns out they were both off Wednesday. They were like yeah, we're down, we're going to Kansas City, katie calls me McCullough because obviously that's our last name. When I don't listen to her say my name or whatever name she's calling me, she'll just call him my last name. Sometimes she just does it randomly.
Speaker 1:Garrett was like what'd you call him? She's like McCullough. He said what's that? What is that? Dude McCullough? He's like what's that, what is that? This dude did not know my last name and she was like that's their last name.
Speaker 1:Garrett was like there's no way. He's like I schedule appointments with you every two weeks for like seven years now, dude, I've never seen that. I said Garrett, that's on every schedule that you schedule. It says my full name, tim McCullough. On there he went and looked and it does. He's like how did I never notice that? I was like dude seven whole years.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so, um, but long, long story short. Uh, that's someone that totally unexpectedly 1000, I can 112 say that I would never expected to actually care. That ended up actually caring, you know to. It's a whole long story that led into that. But there are people who don't care. But we have a friend. There are people unexpectedly, taylor and cooper taylor's told me that, um, when we first met cooper says all the time. He said do you think jeff remember that time I went to, he went to shake my hand and I gave him a hug. He says it all the time, so he's still working. Do you remember that? I didn't even remember. I don't either. Oh, no, that's your answer, cooper. So moral of the story is I know the people who truly don't care.
Speaker 1:Okay, dude, I totally had another question where I was going somewhere and then I got way off talking, talking about my homeboy garrett, and I did not know where I was going. With that, that's okay. Uh, what did? What did? You gave some advice earlier and I already forgot what it was. Yeah, good advice, let's see. No, you like both ways. Before crossing the street, did I say? You gave a good answer. I said advice, don't eat your food. That's not a good one. It is a good one. I mean, unless you're into that, I don't know. There might be some people who are, oh, life goes by too fast. Yeah, okay, I had somewhere to go with that. Yeah, but I already done did, for god. But to be honest, I'm way past done did. Yeah, I'm actually gonna bring that up next time. You and him golf together. Yeah, when I hugged you or not when you hugged me.
Speaker 1:What's a weird habit you have chewing on my lips, is it? It's terrible. The outside lip, inside, oh, I do that sometimes, actually, as you're asking me that I have this little, you see it getting. It's like a little skin tag almost, and so I'll just kind of like pick at it. Do you want me to cut it off? Well, no, I can rip it off once it gets long, but it always comes back. I don't think you're supposed to do that. It's literally fine. You can cut it off if you'd want to. No, I'm just messing with you. I don't really know. I know yours probably.
Speaker 1:I pop my fingers, my elbow those aren't really weird, but I don't do it like rub your feet together. Oh, I do that a lot, like all in my sleep. I'll do this and I will rub my foot raw to the point it'll like or up here, I do it up here a lot too, and it'll like scab up, because I'll do it just. I will rub my foot raw to the point it'll like or up here, I do it up here a lot too, and it'll like scab up, because I'll do it just like this in my sleep. I don't know. I have another one for you, especially in the wintertime. I'm glad that you do, cause I didn't, I didn't have a lot of hands. So you will have a napkin on you and you still will wipe your hands on, and so there's just. He'll go back into work and there's food, like sliding up the side of his feet. I do that a lot. I just want my hands because I do it at work, so it's just a habit. I just got a new child. Okay, that's going to be horrible for everyone. I totally exaggerated, just for that. Yeah, I have another one. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1:What about you, jeff? Weird habit about yourself. Weird habit which one? Tell them one, let's let's hear you say one, let's hear you say one. I think about me, for him, about me, about you. Yeah, well, I can't think of anything when, like, tell me to do something. That's another one of my bad habits. You can't be put on the spot.
Speaker 1:A bad habit I have, a really bad habit I have, is getting mad at other drivers and talking to them like they can hear me, because they can't, but they should. I just tell them dumb drivers, I'm like dude, I know, but you get so mad that then it annoys me. I do get very mad because it's just so stupid and I'm like God, I'm a totally different person. When I drive I'm like bro, just go, go. I would say a bad habit of Jeff's is hitting all the potholes when he's driving. Oh, okay, Whatever. Yeah, I'm trying to think of an idea that makes me mad. What Fucking breathing I mean. What fucking breathing I mean?
Speaker 1:I think one of my bad habits is like if katie wants something, I'm like yeah, okay, I can get it and do it. Then, like I see like a eight dollar t-shirt and I'm like I don't know if I really need that. And then you look obviously around here and I have thousands of thousands of dollars of stuff in here, yeah, and so like I could see like 800 rice and I'm like that's the one. Yeah, you know it's good in cash. You know, oh well, yeah.
Speaker 1:And then I like don't buy anything for myself other than that. I think that's probably bad. Is there one purchase you've bought that you're like maybe I shouldn't have bought that? You're looking around the room, like no, not really anything ever at any point in time. I know mine. I mean now like no, not really, because everything I buy is not like sure, I've probably like done dumb stuff, but I haven't really bought anything that's like, oh, this is stupid. And I mean, maybe in the eyes of people it might be stupid, but everything has a purpose. How about the razor? It's kind of dumb. I enjoy it a lot more now that I'm, that when I use it I'm like okay, it's, it wasn't a dumb buy by any means, because it's a whole lot of fun.
Speaker 1:But then I look back I'm like dude, I spent $20,000 on side-by-side. How do you say that? I guess the camper might have been, oh for you. Yeah, but like I really don't mind. It seemed like necessary, though it was at the time. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But now I'm like oh, I wanted to, like we could go camp if I wanted to do whatever, so I really don't mind having it, but you could, you go camping whenever I could right now. You could go right now. Well, I think you could. But it's pitch a tent, yeah, I'm. I'm more of a luxury these days. I I'd rather sleep in the camper. Yeah, you're old dude, congratulations. Yeah, what's up with getting old? Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Everything they say is true. It's 9.30 and it's an hour past my bedtime. So, oh my, my thing is I can't nap and I can't sit still, like I used to be able to nap and be able to do nothing Like. Like I used to be able to nap and be able to do nothing Like today. We were sitting there watching. I was like I gotta go to this, I'm gonna go to the gym. You're like, are you that bored? I was like I just can't sit here and we ended up sighting in the crossbow, which was cool. But I was like dude, I just want to get up and do something Like I don.
Speaker 1:I would have did it. You didn't ask. I love mowing. You're the best freaking I would have. Well, it makes you sound better. I mow my neighbor's front yard too. So you would have had to do that. I would have done that. Well see, so now I would have left it up to you.
Speaker 1:But have you guys ever given advice that you're like? Looking back, that was some bad advice. You know, off the top of my head I can't think of a moment I've done that. I know there probably has me neither, but I know there's gotta be, and I would love for someone to chime in and be like you're an idiot because you told me to do this at this time and that would be awesome, and then I'd probably bring them on the podcast so they could tell the story. But off the top of my I try to be non-biased about, but I try not to put myself in that situation because I don't want nobody to do what I would do.
Speaker 1:I can say I regret not giving certain advice. I've done that. Yeah, I've definitely done that. Especially after it all played out, I was like dang. Yeah, I feel like the problem with that is most of the time when people are in certain situations, even if you give them good or bad advice, they're not going to take it, I agree. So it's kind of hard to be like well, maybe I should or shouldn't, because it's going in one ear and out the other anyway, so it doesn't matter. I know that sounds like shitty to say, but it's the truth. It happens the majority of the time. The times that I know that I probably gave really bad advice is when I gave advice without knowing the full situation or not knowing completely what I was giving advice to Exactly. You have to remember there's two sides to every story. I gave advice based on the information I knew, which turned out not to be the information that was correct. I was like, well, I gave you bad advice this whole time. Now I feel stupid. Oh well, it was good advice. Given the circumstances, I feel like there you go. Yeah, I think I know what I'm just bad at it's. Oh, there we go.
Speaker 1:He still hasn't gave a song for ufc. He doesn't take out his daily contacts oh yeah, he sleeps in them and wears them for weeks. Oh, no, weeks, no, I just got new ones. Dude, yeah, you know it should be a scam. Different yesterday, you know it should be a scam.
Speaker 1:I paid 860 dollars for a year supply in daily contacts. That's insane. Well, that's like a big thing is dude. When you go to like the doctor I, doctor, dentist you don't know until afterwards what you're paying right, and I think that that is a scam. It's a complete scam. I'm like dude. I'm not saying that we should have even prices, I don't care one bit. Tell me beforehand, because if you're like three times the amount of a doctor that's 20 in the hall across from you and you're doing the same thing with something minor, I'm going to that fool. You know, like dude, yeah, dude, yeah. I agree with you, though that's crazy to pay that much insurance. I have good insurance but, like dental and vision, insurance is railroad, is like the dental or the vision covered 130 a year is all they cover and then then they cover something. Then dental is like two cleanings and then something else.
Speaker 1:This fly is pissing me off. I'm going to get a gun. Oh, I hit it. Oh, I thought you got it. I did I hit it. No, I want a gun. I want to shoot that thing. Everybody's over here grabbing at it, but the healthcare healthcare is amazing, tim, and I don't have insurance. He's got it. Oh, did it live? I smacked the hell out of that thing. You smacked it into my hand. Oh, so your hand, nice. Oh yeah, you really got it, bitch, he stomped on it and it flew off. Dude, he's over there. He's almost dead. He deserves a lift. Guys, I want the will of that fly.
Speaker 1:Alright, we're back. My gosh, that's a trooper of a fly right there. I'm not having no concerns. I couldn't know. Okay, we get it. You're native. No, we don't. I don't want to pull that card. I knew that's what you were going with, but I wanted to pull that card. I knew that's what you were going with, but I wanted to pull them. Why? No, swallowed my spit. Can you not cough into our listeners' ears? My bad fellas? There's millions of people who are getting their ears coughed into right now. Millions. I like that.
Speaker 1:I like that thought process, talking into existence. I like to talk things into existence Such as oh, I don't know, didn't get that far, didn't I get that far at all? Yeah, dream car, dream car. Yep. One answer First. One Top of your head, your head go, let's guy talk mustang shelby. Oh, and shelby mustang. Probably you're saying not the shelby, the mustang, like suv one. I think it's a mock.
Speaker 1:The new one, yeah, yeah, it looks like a mom car, but it's like mustang. The things are, the things are actually looking nice. It's like Mustang, those things are actually looking nice. It's funny. Oh, give me Paul Walker Subaru. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, probably a Ford Rocket. Dude, that Subaru is. You know what a Ford Rocket is? I know what a rocket is Katy Perry. She went to space. That's true man, she's an astronaut. Oh, yeah, that's probably dream car to be a ford rocket.
Speaker 1:I don't know why I asked that. I asked that like everyone's gonna have, like this dream car. Some people don't care, I don't care, I like my trail. Okay, we can get you another one. Alright, what's your question?
Speaker 1:What's something you think that was faked for COVID? The moon landing Canceled, we're done. The government covered up something else the moon landing, marilyn Monroe's death? Oh, that's the obvious answer Marilyn Monroe's death. You, talking about Katy Perry going to space, made me think of that, because everybody's saying space, princess Diana, amelia Earhart, fucking Helen Keller, little fraud. I'm sorry. No, I said no cussing, I'm sorry. I think I said plenty. Me too, I'm just kidding. Helen Keller is such a fraud. Helen Keller is definitely fake. Helen Keller is such a broad. Helen Keller is definitely fake.
Speaker 1:You're not going to convince me that Helen Keller was real. There's no way to do it. No, why are they trying to tell us that she was? What's the point? She was deaf and blind. How did she learn to do anything? It doesn't click in my head because they spelled it for her. But how did she know what it sounded like? How did she know what age sounds like? I guess I don't remember exactly what age it was that she Lost her hearing. It was like baby, baby, yeah, like she was a baby. There's no way she should have known things. I think she was fake.
Speaker 1:You know who was real Anne Frank. Yeah, anne Frank was real, one of my heroes. That's an odd hero to have, but I said one of them, not my main one. I, like Dan Frank, I did a whole little documentary thing over her in like 7th grade. A documentary, a report. There you go, a report. You know what he meant.
Speaker 1:I know I tried to call him out. Well, look, I would have been better if Kyle forced me to go to school. That's fair. It's Kyle's fault, it's Kyle's defense. He never missed a day of school, not in his life, which is crazy, really Never. He never missed a day in his life, never, not one. Until he graduated 12th grade, he never missed a single day of school. You want to talk about student Caitlin? That's the craziest stat, I think, of all time. You don't get that kind of reputation and not look at your name, dude.
Speaker 1:My senior year, I think I might have only went to school one day a week at times, dude, if there was only a game on a Tuesday. That's the only day I'm going to school. You should be thankful that your son loved you. I loved her too. I appreciate her. She was very awesome. Your dad used to get phone calls every day. I would skip first period and do donuts every day and go to school.
Speaker 1:It was typing Country living, you know. Yeah, it was typing Different kind of life. And then the same teacher, miss Perry, great lady, when I broke my wrist, I went in there the week after I had surgery. I had surgery, I had surgery on like their day and took the whole week off, went back that next monday. We had like a whole. You had to type out this whole thing and you had to do it under a certain time. And I was over there like chicken scratching input, you know and she came over and asked me why I was so behind and I was like, miss perry, um, I have one arm, I don't know how fast you want me to type with this. And then she's like oh, I didn't think about that. Did you break your arm? Yeah, I broke my arm, probably because you ate my cookie. Well, I ate your cookie because you broke your arm Time out.
Speaker 1:He was playing a football game. He's like can I get a cookie? I was like, yeah, I'll go get you some cookies, bro, lie, uh, porter had bomb cookies at their concession stand. So I went and got the cookie and well in the middle, well towards the end of the game it's like a third quarter fourth he broke his arm like snapped it in half. A bunch of great stories came out of that. Whatever, a bunch of great stories came out of that moment, though, like when he walked over he was a little like out of it because of adrenaline rush. He was like I think I broke my, was like dude, that bitch is straight sideways. Dude, that thing's not broke. It's like I held it up, it's gone. And I'm like can you hear people in the stand? Oh, no, I was like, ooh, don't say that. No, this thing is gone.
Speaker 1:A couple of things that were funny One I ate is. And he was like can I have my cookie now? I was like, oh, dude, I definitely thought you were going to forget. I did not expect you to remember that. I got you the cookie. And I was like let me go back to the concession stand. They closed.
Speaker 1:I was like, oh damn, another funny story that came out of that. He's coming to the sideline. He's like who's taking you home? And Jeff was like my Uncle Jamie. He's sideline. He's like, uh, who's who's taking you home? And uh, jeff was like my uncle jamie. He's like, hey, I think you should go ahead and take him to the hospital. It's pretty bad.
Speaker 1:The greatest thing about that story was I'm gonna be like I think we should wait till tomorrow. I don't. His coach was like uh, yeah, his arm is like completely snapped. That wrist is broke, broke. Like I don't think he can wait till tomorrow. He's like I think you should go now. Oh, dude, that was the greatest thing. But shout out to jimmy helped you get your pads off and stuff. And then I think that was the hardest part was getting my pads off. Yeah, because how was he going to get it off with your wrist sideways? They tried to wrap it to get it out a certain way, but it didn't pan out. It was just in pain. I just had to do it.
Speaker 1:I remember on the way home you know, of course, I was having lots of dabble in the middle of the night and we went through Taco Mayo drive-thru line and we got a box of tacos and he stopped and got him a six-pack and tacos. And he stopped and got him a six-pack and, uh, I drank one. And then he's like all right, I probably shouldn't give you any more. I don't think thinning your blood is a smart thing to do right now. I was like, well, okay, so I remember he called mom and mom was all freaking out and she met me at the hospital and then when I was there you know, they take, they put the little thing on your finger, whatever your heartbeat or whatever. Yeah, whatever that All socks, yeah, whatever that shit's called. Okay, fucking nurses. Anyway, and he like you can call me anything you want, just don't call me that. I had my arm slinged up and he grabbed my hand and pulled it over to him. I was like what? I had to slap the nurse dude, oh God. Yeah, I had to like, slap the nurse dude, oh god. I was like do you not think he was broke? Do you think I was lying? Just checking? Yeah, that's pretty bad.
Speaker 1:We could talk about our escape room, speaking of which I was just, don't call me out for my escape room strategy. She went to go find some more questions on tragedy 2 and I went to her history to help her out. And this is Escape Room Strategy. Oh no, we got out. We did get out. You're welcome With a whole other family, yeah, which is the craziest thing? That was weird, that's very weird. First off, with a whole other. What Family in the room Quit it? Well, not necessarily. They were doing it in a different escape room in the same room, and that's the weirdest thing in the world to me. It's like what are we doing here? That makes no sense at all. Yeah, that was a bad concept.
Speaker 1:We also used a syringe for a fuse. We didn't know it worked. It did work when we got out. It wasn't the right thing to do, but the lady was like what is that? I was like, oh, the syringe. We found it on the light. She's like yeah, no, you took it apart. That's not allowed. And then it wasn't even the right thing. She's lucky I didn't look at her and ask what was that? Whatever, yeah, that was a. What was your question?
Speaker 1:About the escape room, though? How'd you guys like it? Oh, I thought it was okay. I wish it was like in an enclosed room. I was about to say if that exact setup was like in an enclosed room, I think it would be cool, but the clown one I felt like that we did was way harder and way more steps and a little bit more like in detail. This one was so broad and it was just like like we found pieces before we were supposed to find them right and I didn't like that. Most of the escape rooms is like, okay, you do this, then you get to the next set, this and then the next one's like dude, we have like four pieces here that we don't even know what they're going to. Yeah, so we're just laying stuff down. It's a little odd, but I mean, we broke the record so definitely. But we don't have to tell them the time. We did it in like 14 minutes. It was good. It was an hour long. They told us most people. Yeah, they tell us most people don't finish it. Yeah, yeah, no, I thought it was okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you were like trying to do the alien one for a little bit you were like, oh, this isn't our machine. Well, that's another thing. Don't put machines in our area. That was so weird. Don't put yeah, that's what I didn't like in like a piano, like I don't know what was crazy about that alien machine thing is. I actually figured out the clue for it and I got the side thing opened on it. No, you did. Yes, yes, I did did. I'm like, yeah, there was tongs in it. I did, yeah, and oh my God. And then you're like that's not ours. I was like, how did I figure it out? I have no idea how I did this. Oh, I'm so proud. Yeah, we should do that one now. Yeah, I was so confused. I was like either they didn't fix this all the way or I figured this out. Yeah, the syringe belonged to the alien one too. Yeah, the syringe belongs to the alien one too. Yeah, very interesting. I definitely would rather do an enclosed one next time, but it was a good time. It was a pretty good time.
Speaker 1:Dude, would you rather fight a horse-sized chicken or a hundred chicken-sized horses? A hundred chicken-sized horses, a horse-sized chicken? They're mean. I see Family Guy. You know that chicken on there. Him and Peter would be going at it. Yeah, they do.
Speaker 1:So you'd rather fight one horse-sized chicken? What do I get? To fight him Just straight up, like my fist only? No, you get 100. Or is it whatever I Do? We have to fight them. Yeah, is it whatever I try? He said I want to take him home.
Speaker 1:Okay, let's say like, free fight, like whatever. All rules apply. Oh, yeah, I mean it's a chicken-sized horse. But let's say we're in the woods so you don't get any weapons. You're in the woods so I can pick up a branch. Yeah, I'm gonna fight off. Hmm, here's the thing If you have one size, you can see where he's at and move. You have a hundred. One size, you can see where he's at and move. You have a hundred.
Speaker 1:They're the size of chickens, but they're horses. There's no way, because they can just surround you. And then what do you do? Can a chicken-sized horse really kick you as hard as a normal horse? I'm more worried about getting pecked. That's what I was about to say. That's the chicken-sized horse. So horse-sized chickens are a little smaller. Yeah, they get on top of you and they start pecking you. I mean, some people don't like that. No, no, they're horses, I'm sorry. Oh, they're horses the size of chickens.
Speaker 1:Horses the size of chickens, or one chicken the size of a horse. I feel like the horse is only scary because they're so big and they can kick. And when they're smaller they obviously probably aren't going to do. You could probably kick a couple of them and they'll die in the first kick. I don't know, that's how. That's how our father broke his foot. That was a real horse, oh, when he was kicking a chicken. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. Yeah, maybe just one thing like the chicken. Yeah, I'm going one one chicken.
Speaker 1:I feel like my odds are better. I think if chickens can't fly a whole lot, they can fly a little bit, obviously, but I really believe if you could get yourself like a something, a tree limb, that you could get a little sharp piece on it, then you could get to that sucker. They can run with their heads, you could stab it in the neck, but I think it would die pretty relatively quickly. Who's in the woods with that gun? A liberal? Yes, probably. They don't really like them. Well, that's not me.
Speaker 1:So, oh, dude, if animals could talk, which one do you think would be the rudest animal If they could talk? Freaking flamingo, man, flamingo. They do like little prissy bitches, dude. They were just so stuck up and their knees walk backwards, like, imagine you got backwards when they walk. You know how our knees go like this. They go backwards when they walk. So you know you got something. I think ostrich Jeff got pecked by an ostrich as a child. Have you ever heard that story? There's your bad ass. I'll hear it later, okay, anyway, I think there's a lot of storytelling going on. Yeah, kangaroo, nah, I can see them being something you know, I think something like a little white asshole Dude.
Speaker 1:They kind of mind their business, but they just feel like Beavers. Opossum I was definitely thinking opossum. Yeah, they kind of mind their business and they're not really that mean, but I feel like if they could talk to you, they'd just be little smartasses, yeah, and they would have like a Boston accent. Yes, yeah, probably. Yeah, dude, yeah, yeah, a Boston accent. Dude, yeah, dude. Imagine a fucking little possum coming at you with a Boston, the Boston accent. Fucking, you want some sausage? No, bitch, I don't want no sausage. Get out of here, dude, go get something. Get out of here, dude. I hate Boston accents. I don't know why. I love people from Boston, but their accents just like dude. What are you saying? But it's not as bad as dude Theo Vaughn said it. The French, god dang dude. Those you saying but it's not as bad as dude theo von said it. The french, god dang dude. You guys are some rude suckers.
Speaker 1:Well, guys, we have been on here for an hour and 15 minutes time. Time will fly when you're having fun, felt like we got off to a little bit of a slow start, yeah, but I'm saying, once you get flowing, it gets a lot easier, easier, you get the hang of it a little bit. I mean, I'm rusty. I haven't done this in a while and it was three out of four people sitting here for a sign. Yeah, I haven't done this in over a year. I haven't podcasted in over a year. I'm glad we did it. This is my first time. Yeah, I've been missing it. We've talked about it, do you guys? The last few times we've been here, yeah, me and Kate have been talking about doing it ourselves for a year at least, at least to get it actually started. Yeah, now that it's starting, it's pretty nice. Yeah, I think we'll get started in a few weeks. What's going to be your podcast setting Live? No, your new house. Where are you gonna do? Uh, well, we have a desk in the spare room. Yeah, we'll just set up and anywhere.
Speaker 1:Really, tim made me a vanity in my room. I did, yeah, yeah, made a vanity. I actually built it and, uh, I mean, I bought the parts and put it together, but they were not. They didn't come together, like I bought them all separately. Real bob the builder you even talk about real bob the builder was our freaking bar cart. I ordered that bar cart and it came with all the pieces and it had no holes in it. Yeah, crazy, right, I had to drill holes in the wood and the metal. I was like dude and it gave me instructions with all the screws and stuff and no holes. I had to put that thing together from scratch and it looks like I was like dude. I don't know how I did this, because this is the.
Speaker 1:I was always afraid I was going to go too far or something, and it turned out really great. It rolls great, it looks great. Yeah, I just put it together. The only thing I was really worried about, because the holes on it were so tiny, was the line holders. So I was like I got to drill with the smallest little hole driller thing I have I forget what they're called Drill bit yes, the smallest like little bit I have and then drill it in, like to tighten it in, and I was like I hope the sink holds its wine, because I don't know how good I held it together. Yeah, so yeah, but that's going to be our base studio.
Speaker 1:Basically, we'll just kind of hang out. Yeah, we'll get hang out. I'd like to. After we get going and flowing, I would like to do camera, get video going. It's easier to look at the camera and talk and movement, but first we just want to get going honestly.
Speaker 1:So who's the next person you're going to have on? Probably Kyle. Who's the list of people you want? I'm not going to give that out, I'll give it out afterwards. If the list of people you want, I'm not going to give that out, I'll give it out afterwards. Okay, if I give it out pre-handedly, everyone's going to be expecting it. I do have a good list. I have a lot of people that want to offer. Who do you know that will be on? Well, that's kind of the same. It is the same, but Kyle is definitely going to be on. One Dude, if Patrick Wills gets on this podcast, I'll be a happy fella. I'll tell you what. But I got a good list. I got a good list of people.
Speaker 1:When's this episode going to be out? Well, here's my game plan when we get home, record the first episode and then I'd like to drop it, maybe three days after, and then this one, like a Tuesday, probably, yes, and then this one a week after that. Okay, and I could pre-upload this one, and that way it's just already ready to drop and then we'll be an episode ahead basically every time, which would be great. It's like, when we record the following week, it'll come out the following week, and that way we're ahead, because sometimes when you get behind, behind, you don't have enough time to. This is what we did with. We are sports podcast with me and josh. I'll definitely have him on. I'd like to have him on one, but we would record the week of and release it the next day usually, and sometimes you get behind and it's like, oh, shoot, you guys kind of had to, though, because it's just the way our schedule works, and the topic worked that way too, because, well, it's week to week in football, so it's a little different. But I think this one, if I can stay ahead, it'd be good. But I, I think I have a. I got a good list of people. I went on and I got a list of people that's already agreed to do it, so I'm pretty stoked. Uh, I got, I got you know.
Speaker 1:One last question before we hop off here um, dude, have you ever had a teacher that stuck around like that, just kind of I don't want to say change your life. But uh, teachers that kind of believed in you a little bit more than the other ones that you're like kind of thankful for. I have a few of them, which is crazy. You have a few. I'd probably say, like miss taylor, that's a good one. Cindy, yeah, oh, dude, I want her on this podcast so bad. You know, I hope she listens to this one.
Speaker 1:She's my I would definitely my favorite teacher of all time, probably my favorite dad, probably Coach Wood. I still talk to him. You see the taxidermy, he was one of them. Yeah, I hope he has my I don't know what you're going to say I hope my duck is in his house. I don't think he does anymore because I took him around and then moved. So I don't think I don't know if he does anymore or not. But yeah, definitely them too. I know my second grade teacher was like well, like if, cause obviously my little brothers went to the same schools. So I feel like if I went up there, I feel like he'd be like I have two and both I want to have on this podcast.
Speaker 1:One has already agreed. But Ms Taylor, obviously, same dude. Ms Taylor's my. You're a little derp, huh. Yes, ms Taylor is my favorite teacher of all time. Sorry, coach Walton, sorry all the other teachers. I love Ms Taylor to death. She's a great human being and I felt like she was a teacher for every right reason in the world. Way more teachers like her. She now has a business in Oatmoge. It's like a boutique business. I hope she's booming. I went and looked at it. It's a really beautiful place. I need to take Katie by it. We don't ever go that way.
Speaker 1:And then Coach Walden. Yeah, coach Walden, who has agreed to come on this podcast. He will be a guest, don't know when yet. The season's starting soon, maybe, maybe, pretty soon, but he's going to have a good one. We'll have a good time on here. He's 18 wins away from 500 as a boys basketball coach. That's good. I'd like to get him around the time that he's really close. We'll see, we'll see. I can't wait. Yeah, he's a great human. I hung out with him a couple of weeks ago. Awesome, awesome guy Gave me Best Driver and driver's ed award at the end of the year, so we've been friends ever since. Oh, so he's the reason for your anger issues. We'll talk about that. We'll talk about it. Yeah, please bring it up to him. Yeah, that just came in my head. Yes, I hope to have both of them on here at some point. Well, coach walden will be on here at some point. I'd love to have miss taylor on here at one point. She'd be a great person to have on here because we could get a lot of uh, there's a tornado outside. No, well, guys, thanks for uh.
Speaker 1:Coming on to our second episode, um, it'd be interesting to listen to see how slow we start and how we started flowing better, and I'm excited for me to just continue to get back in the flow. Me too. I'm excited to not do it at like 8 pm. Dude, I'm thriving. I started drinking a balloon before this you did. Yeah, oh, it's in there. Yeah, oh, man, I didn't take a. I didn't take a nap, you know. So I had to do something. I was getting sleepy there for a minute I was like we don't do this, I ain't gonna do it. I'm glad we did it. I'm glad you guys are able to do it. We'll do another one. We'll do another one. We'll do another one. We'll get a topic book together what We'll do, another one and we'll be a lot better. Now that you got the flow up, the understanding will be good.
Speaker 1:Well, this is a little different extra than what I used to do. Is that the right word, exit? I don't think extra is a thing, just intro. Maybe it's your show, you do whatever you want. I'm still going to say, I'm still going to do it the same. Me and Josh did it. The best way that we used to do when we got up is we all said we out when the camera's there. I used to give it the peace sign. There ain't no camera here today, but I'm gonna give y'all a peace sign. So, uh, thanks for coming on and I hope you guys enjoyed it. All right, thank you, I enjoyed being on here. All right, I'll talk to y'all later.
