This week on Trip to the Beer Store, things get messy in the best way. The crew gets into the DoorDash incident where the girl recorded the guy and the internet immediately did what it does best, picked sides before knowing the whole story. Then they crack open a Midnight Special and give their honest take while the conversation spirals into some brutally honest hot takes about red flag friends, you know the ones who always bring chaos, bad decisions, and somehow still make it into the group chat.

It’s unfiltered, slightly unhinged, and exactly the kind of episode that starts with beer and ends with everyone questioning their friendships.

SPEAKER_04

It changed my life. Trip to the best hole. On the trip to the pistol. Gotta have a situation on trip to the best hole. I had a revelation. Yeah, more lives.

SPEAKER_10

Guys, I think DoorDash needs to be reined in. It's becoming a serious problem.

SPEAKER_09

I have ethical issues with DoorDash, but um I agree wholeheartedly.

SPEAKER_10

So are you guys familiar with the DoorDash Girl?

SPEAKER_03

I am a little familiar with the DoorDash Girl.

SPEAKER_09

Is this the one who opened open the or the door was open and she like popped her head in? Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And we'd like to welcome Cody back from his travels.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, Cody Ward. Hey, hey, hey. Glad to be back. Thank you guys for having me.

SPEAKER_10

So there's a 23-year-old DoorDasher in Oswego, New York. Her name was pronunciation. Olivia Henderson. So she picks it, she picks up her order just like she does for all the other ones. She goes to make her drop off, right? And according to her, when she arrived at the address, the door was open, and a man was laying on his couch completely nude and passed out.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_10

What do you do in this situation?

SPEAKER_02

Uh drop a food off and dip. Yeah. I mean, just set the food down and uh I mean Yeah, high tell it, you know.

SPEAKER_03

I seen the video. And it it seems like she pushed the door open a little. Is that not true? Well, so it is. And he's laying there. I mean, granted, he is laying there in a position that's like Step Bro, is that you? But I'm saying, like, I'm pretty positive. Didn't she push the door open?

SPEAKER_10

I mean, there's a there's a lot that went on with it, but the but the biggest problem being is instead of you know dropping the food bag, GTFO, I got work to do. Yeah, she pulls out her phone and she records a video of this guy. Oh.

SPEAKER_09

And now there's a countersuit, right?

SPEAKER_10

She's been in she's being in the There's there's a whole lot going on with it. And so not only did she record this guy, she went so far as to post it to TikTok.

SPEAKER_02

Oh man. What kind of world are we living in when a man can't just pass out naked on his couch?

SPEAKER_03

Waiting on your food, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_10

I mean, who of us has not done the exact same thing? I mean, I don't leave my door open, but who of it who of us has not passed out naked?

SPEAKER_09

Many, many times. Many times. Never after ordering DoorDash, because I don't order DoorDash because I have ethical issues with DoorDash.

SPEAKER_10

So even after you're you record this man in the privacy of his home, you upload it to TikTok, and then you've got the nerve to claim that you are a victim of sexual assault now.

SPEAKER_09

That's crazy. So if what she's saying is true, I could see how if he ordered the food and was like, well, I'm gonna see if she's gonna drop off of food and maybe come in for a minute and like left the door open.

SPEAKER_03

But how would you have any clue that it's a girl? Well, it tells you their name, I think. Right?

SPEAKER_09

So I've never used DoorDash, so that's why I believe it tells you your Dasher's name.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_09

Um He's like Tatiana. He's like Oh Olivia. I I could see that was her name, right, Olivia. Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_10

I'm gonna check and make sure Olivia Henderson.

SPEAKER_09

I could see how that could be that could be perceived as predatory right behavior. But if I believe in the video, she like kind of pushes the door up. That's what I thought.

SPEAKER_03

Um that it was cracked and she pushed it open and he was just laying there naked.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, so if that's the case, then probably should have just dropped the put the fries in the bag, leave the bag, tear out, you know.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, he wasn't like bricked up or anything. I mean, you know what I'm saying? I don't know.

SPEAKER_09

Slow stroke.

SPEAKER_03

He might have just I haven't seen the just laid there passed out, you know.

SPEAKER_10

I hadn't seen the video, so I'm but I mean, you know, sexual assault is one of the you know loudest things in the media right now is a whole for sure.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I think this is definitely one of those uh victim mentality kind of things, right? So just drop the food and fucking leave, you know. Creep with guys are creep.

SPEAKER_03

Don't they usually do that? Was it in so there was something on there about like you can just request that it's left at the door, take a picture? Well, you're supposed to. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_10

Like there's no reason you don't have to knock on the door, you're not supposed to go in the house, you're not supposed to do any of that. You drop the food at the door, you take a picture of it. It may say like hit the bell on your way out, but you're not you don't hand food to people anymore. That all went away with uh COVID.

SPEAKER_03

So now it was breaking and entering. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

At least entering.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Hey guys, we're about to pull a B and E. So what's the what's the most recent update? Oh, yeah. So uh um, you know, that that all happened in October of last year. Um so in November, or no, sorry, late October of last year, she gets banned from DoorDash. Like permanently banned, never have a job with them again.

SPEAKER_03

Seeing her do something wrong, you know.

SPEAKER_10

I mean, yeah, I mean, how do you not? Then early November rolls around and the police get involved. And the police say that their finding contradict Henderson's story.

SPEAKER_03

Oh. So she twisted the doorknob before she hit record.

SPEAKER_10

The investigation indicated she entered the home and that the man was intoxicated and incapacitated, not actively assaulting her, and that she filmed from inside or just outside his home, making the image a violation.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, he was drunk ordering food, passed out on the couch. Hey, look, that checks all the boxes, right?

SPEAKER_08

Who ain't been there?

SPEAKER_09

My boy was just tore out the frame and needed some Taco Bell, something fierce.

SPEAKER_03

They didn't know she was gonna go beeping on him.

SPEAKER_10

So November. Yeah, so she's the beeping Tom.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And then put it that's the thing, like, isn't it a felony to we're getting there? Naked pictures of a somebody else online, or you know.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. So as my next bullet point here.

SPEAKER_03

Sorry, skipped ahead.

SPEAKER_10

November 10th, she's arrested by the Oswego County, city, police, whoever it is. She's charged with two felonies. One is unlawful surveillance in the second degree, meaning that she recorded somebody without their consent in a non public space. Gotcha. And number two being the dissemination of an unlawful surveillance image in the first degree.

SPEAKER_09

So she's done. Yeah. They're gonna get her. I wonder it is. I wonder if that's play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I wonder if that's like a sex offender charge if you'll have to register for that.

SPEAKER_10

Well, I I don't think it would be well, I mean, uploading porn to TikTok is probably a crime, but um it doesn't specifically, you know, state it's of a sexual nature. What the recording here is, is that she recorded illegally and then uploaded an illegal recording. So probably won't get tagged with the sex offender on that one. But as of two days ago, um she was um well uh I don't know why it didn't update correctly, but as of two days ago, she was indicted by a grand jury, so she'll actually be going to trial for this.

SPEAKER_02

Wow. Cool. Well, here's the deal. They obviously uh saw sufficient enough evidence if they here's the deal, man.

SPEAKER_09

I know y'all, y'all, when y'all were kids, like the internet iPhones wasn't a thing. And when I was a little, little kid, it wasn't either. But I remember like having a having an iPod that had access to the internet. And having all these adults in my life that said, hey, look, this internet thing is kind of taking off. Before you you post anything, understand it's out there, you know, forever. If if I say something across the table to Lane and there's nobody in here, that's between me and Lane. If I post something on the internet and tag Lane in it, that's me and Lane and every single other person who's on the internet. Everyone. And I think some people have forgotten that. You know, you see some stuff get posted on Facebook or TikTok or wherever, and you're like, is that gonna age that well in 10 years?

SPEAKER_03

Like, yeah. Sometimes you gotta take a step back.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I've nearly posted some things and I'm like, ah, don't need that to trail behind me for a while.

SPEAKER_09

Not everything, not everything needs to be on social media, you know.

SPEAKER_10

Just like I'm I'm I'm flabbergasted by DoorDash right now. It wasn't that long we talked about nasty ass burgers, right? Yep, nasty ass. And you miss nasty ass burgers. There's this homeless guy living on the streets in Atlanta, got approved to be a DoorDash restaurant, and his entire restaurant was him grilling hamburgers on the side of a shopping cart under a bridge. Okay. And it and that got approved for DoorDash. Wow.

SPEAKER_09

Hey, dope fiends gonna hustle, brother. Man, it don't matter. I gotta hand it to him, really.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, he could have just been laying on a street corner with his hand out and got a nulla. The man's hustling. This maker burger was putting in work, you know. Listen, I'm starting with this shopping cart right here.

SPEAKER_03

That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna move into a 93 Chevy Lumina trunk, right? And I'm gonna work my way all the way up.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah. I'm gonna own a McDonald's one day. Yeah, and he will. I hope he does. I got nothing but love in my heart for nasty ass burgers. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Did y'all hear about the other DoorDash driver? Um, this lady ordered a seafood boil. Okay. And the bag was dropped outside of her house, marked as delivered.

SPEAKER_07

Okay.

SPEAKER_10

And she went outside, picked it up, no seafood bowl in it. So goes to TikTok later on, and or this person posts, you know, like on the internet about it and stuff. And later on on TikTok, there's this um person of a with a different ethnicity than us that's on there bragging about how she's a DoorDasher and she stole this person's seafood bowl.

SPEAKER_09

Took the damn crab legs.

SPEAKER_10

And they bullied this woman on the internet until she deleted her TikTok.

SPEAKER_09

The person who ate the seafood bowl or the person who was mad about it?

SPEAKER_10

No, the person who ate it. They bullied every one of her posts going back like every one of them.

SPEAKER_09

I had a I had a boy.

SPEAKER_10

She creates a new TikTok and they find her again.

SPEAKER_08

Get her.

SPEAKER_02

There she is. Shame. Two-bit, two-bit shrimp bull eating bitch.

SPEAKER_09

You know, it's funny that you bring up shrimp bowl because the first thing uh I saw on social media today was around lunchtime, sat down to eat my lunch and opened up TikTok, and the first thing that pulled up was a shrimp bowl. And it made me consider texting our old buddy Cody Ward over here and saying Yeah, we need to do that. It's been on my mind a couple days too. Oh, yeah. Have you seen people drop the imitation crab meat off in it? Like just almost when it's done, you just drop it off in it.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not a hater. I do like the imitation crab.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, me too, dude. It's got great macros. Like if you're trying to lose weight, imitation crabs.

SPEAKER_10

Well, Linden Garden's my favorite restaurant.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, that uh crab casserole thing.

SPEAKER_10

Well, that bacon wrapped imitation crabs.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Those are my two favorite things, too.

SPEAKER_09

Did you just say the words bacon wrapped and imitation crab?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

Guys, we gotta wrap this up. I got somewhere to be. Never.

SPEAKER_03

You're joking.

SPEAKER_09

Never. We got someplace. Wrap this up. Cody, it's been nice having you on the podcast. We'll see y'all next week. See y'all next week. What about the beer review? Next week. Next week, we'll do two next week.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Um, we'll also be re reviewing the Bacon Wrapped Invitation Crap.

SPEAKER_03

Is it that's all it is? So look, let's door dash some and just sit here naked when it should.

SPEAKER_09

The door was closed. I don't know what the problem. You have a glass.

SPEAKER_03

Man, will you stop videoing through the window?

SPEAKER_09

It was just a poor nakedness.

SPEAKER_10

Leave the food at the door. And then on top of that, there was another incident where this woman, this DoorDash woman was mad because she didn't get a big enough tip. Gotcha. And so she opens the bag, pepper sprays the inside of the bag, and then the outside of it.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, wow. Wow. Yeah, I've seen this. Like I think the I've not seen the it was like a husband and wife that ordered the food, and I think that the wife ended up getting pretty sick.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

You know, you know, in light of everything that's happening, shit like this. Where have we got to? You know what I mean? Like, I mean, there was a time when people got punched in the mouth for this kind of stuff, and this stuff didn't take place, you know.

SPEAKER_03

That's but you know, also Well now if you punch somebody in the mouth, it's attempted murder.

SPEAKER_02

So that's right.

SPEAKER_10

And then also, you know, we the we you don't have to verify it. Yeah. Right. Like because the bag's supposed to be sealed.

SPEAKER_03

I was uh I was told a really good story by my brother, uh, shout out David, um about people stealing packages or you know, stealing DoorDash, whatever. Um, this lady kept getting her packages stole, and what she did was she put a bunch of um black widows in a box. I had a good one. And the guy went down the road and they got out and bit him all over. He nearly died. Well, he tried to sue her, and she was like, Hey, those were my pets. And and he killed some of them. She actually took him to court and was suing him for her pets. That's pretty smart. She was like, I no, I put them on the porch when she told the cops, uh no, I put them on the porch because they need it outside air. Yeah. I didn't think somebody would steal my boxers. Yeah, but my pets. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

In what kind of society do we live in when it's actually a crime to glitter bomb the folks who steal your batches? Like you cannot glitter bomb people. Like you will go to jail. Have you seen that?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I've well I haven't seen that it's illegal yet, but I've seen the guys where they were glitter bombing people.

SPEAKER_09

I like the one where they do the fart spray and they get a blue.

SPEAKER_02

The best one I seen was a U.S. Marine, and he had a ring door camera, you know. And uh he rigged up some fireworks, you know, put off a pretty loud bang. And there was a uh kind of a heavier set gentleman tries to steal the package, boom, it goes off. He flips, flops across the porch, and he's like, ah, ah, and he's limping around, he's he's hurt, you know. And then uh the the homeowner comes on, he's at work, so he comes on over to the ring camera and he's like, I'm gonna get you, you know, when I police is on the way right now, you know, he's threatening him and all this shit, you know. And dude's like, ah, give me a break, man. And he takes his hand and wipes his ass. He goes, he smells and goes, ah, I shit myself.

SPEAKER_03

Have y'all seen the uh the guys that used to place the bike and it was always like uh tied to something? Oh yeah. But then there was one where the seat used to come all the way up. Oh, yeah, yeah. So when they bicycle away and go to sit on the seat, the bar just comes right through it up. Oh man, and it was it was doing some damage too.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. But you know, I think it also says a lot about where you live. Because I have a I've had a package sitting on my porch. Like I I got home from work at like 3:30, 4, and I've had a package sitting on my porch for like the last four hours. And people drive by my house all the time. Yeah, right, and ain't nobody mess with it. So I think it kind of says a lot about where you live, or at least who your neighbors are.

SPEAKER_09

Y'all figure out Lane's address and SWAT Lane. He's got packages, he's got just gonna start going up with the floor.

SPEAKER_10

Or send your ex-girlfriend there.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, that too. That too. You can do them both. You can do them both at the same time. They're both gonna be bad for him.

SPEAKER_03

I'm gonna call the cops unless good stuff.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I grew up uh, you know, in Bug Tussle. And uh man, we never locked the front door when we lived there, you know. And just wasn't a thing, you know. Right.

SPEAKER_09

It's a different time, brother. Different town.

SPEAKER_03

Different, different time, different town.

SPEAKER_09

Maybe stealing Bug Tussle, you're okay.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know. Yeah, I'm pretty sure dad don't lock the door now, you know.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But Lord forbid you're there stealing when I get home. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Well, they uh he's got a uh a neighbor that lives across the holler, you know, and they kind of watch out for each other. And I remember one time they were they told dad, you know, they're like, hey, we're gonna be gone for a week or so or going to the beach or whatever. And dad's like, okay. And uh he seen headlights over there one night. He's like, all right, they ain't supposed to be back yet, you know. Loads up the old 270. Goes over there. They had come home from vacation early.

SPEAKER_09

That's good, yeah. I said, probably should have seen who y'all were before I sent that one through the engine block. That's my bad. That's my bad.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

There's a there's a drive-by trucker song that I really like, and it one of the lyrics in it is uh, oh, uh, I keep an unlocked door and a loaded burglar alarm. Yeah, that's good stuff. I always like that lyric.

SPEAKER_03

I like those funny videos where somebody's breaking in and and the guy's like a tactical guy, and he's like, uh he's like, oh yes, yes, he's been waiting. I've been waiting for this. Please, please.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, yeah. Uh one of my jujitsu students one time, he sent me a meme because I I joke about this a lot. Um he said there are two kinds of men in this world. One who fears when somebody breaks into their house in the middle of the night and they have to fight another grown man naked, and the ones who look forward to it.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Did y'all ever see any of those old videos they used to do when you could sing, you know, you can sing your old house like Alexa and stuff? Oh, yeah. And they would do one where it says, Alexa, lockdown. And all of a sudden the lights turn red. And it goes and from Shrek he goes, What are you doing in my swamp?

SPEAKER_03

Like the room in the room that gets leathered.

SPEAKER_09

Get him on, get him put a claymore on top of the room and let her go.

SPEAKER_02

So uh traveling around doing this construction, uh, I meet some people. You know what I mean? I meet some people, you know, some very fine people. And a guy was uh he was just talking shit in a smoke pit years ago, and he was talking about uh uh what you could do uh if you were ever outnumbered, you know, somebody multiple people come in your home or whatever, and he said, You just pull out a baseball bat and a box of rubbers. He said, and you tell them y'all might get me. But if you don't change their mind, you know, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Uh wrong house, sir. We're sorry about that. So uh we got us a little beer review. You know what are we drinking on, Paul? Well, I have found this at um Trader Joe's. The the beer store?

SPEAKER_08

Trader Joe's beer store. Trader Joe's.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, so um of course I seen a black can with a train on it, and I was like, ooh. So Autism activated. We have Yellow Hammer Brewing out of Huntsville, Alabama. Um Midnight Special, Black Lager.

SPEAKER_02

Great song, too, by the way. And we had a midnight special here. We didn't know so this is.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yeah. You hey, look, if you wanted to have a really good time that turns to shit very quickly.

SPEAKER_10

I gotta think of a couple of ways to do that.

SPEAKER_09

Um Lane. Yes, sir. I need you to educate me for a minute.

SPEAKER_10

I was actually gonna ask the same question you're about to ask me, so go ahead and ask it.

SPEAKER_09

You have mentioned IBU before.

SPEAKER_10

Yep.

SPEAKER_09

What because we had one that was like five IBU. What do we know what IBU means? Is that does that have something to do with the hops in it?

SPEAKER_10

So that's gonna be your international bitterness units.

SPEAKER_09

Okay.

SPEAKER_10

So it's a scale much like the Scoville, for example, when you would measure highness.

SPEAKER_09

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_10

So where we're at today, which is uh well, where's the IBUs at? 21.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, 21 IBUs. Is that 21 out of 100?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I think it goes higher than 100, but it only had one notch on hops.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. Well, so when you think about so hoppiness is gonna be that like your flavorful, like your flavor profile, right? But a lot of what most people misconceive. When it comes to hops, is that you don't matter what you're making, you throw all your hops in at once. That's not how it works. It's about when you introduce those hops during your brew process, is going to say a lot about that bitterness profile and the taste profile themselves. Okay. Because some hops, the longer they're in, it's going to change how those hops taste. And then some hops you throw in at the very end and it's going to completely change the profile from what you may have had earlier.

SPEAKER_09

You know what we should try to do, gentlemen? And we've talked about it. We've mentioned him on the podcast before. But you know who would be a phenomenal guest? And I think would be very informative for all of us because I like to drink beer a lot. I don't really know that much about beer, though. I know how I can drink 30 of them in quick succession. That's about it. Probably how to drink them. Yeah, yeah. I'm an expert in that.

SPEAKER_10

In fact, I'm better at showing people than I am and telling them.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Don't believe me, watch.

SPEAKER_09

We should figure out how we could get good buddy of the show, Mason Boren, on. And I bet you he could educate us about some stuff. Because he made some fantastic beer.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. I bet that man could be a little bit more.

SPEAKER_02

Joe Latte. I'll never forget it. One of my favorite beers. I love the coffee-flavored beers. It was a good one.

SPEAKER_10

I was a big Red Hopkins fan.

SPEAKER_09

They had a bunch of good ones down at Twisted back in the day. You know? Man, I miss Twisted. That was a good spot. It is a good-looking can, man. It's a good looking can.

SPEAKER_03

But I'm going to be very disappointed.

SPEAKER_10

I thought you were going to ask me a different question.

SPEAKER_09

What question did you think I was going to ask?

SPEAKER_10

I thought you were going to ask me what a black lager is. Because I have absolutely no idea what a black lager is. I've drank a lot of beers. I've drank a lot of lagers.

SPEAKER_03

When I looked it up, it was it was it said something about the cocoa or the coffee type. Dark. Um, so we're gonna we're gonna find out right now. Yeah, let's do it. Let's do it. Let's try it.

SPEAKER_10

Pop it up again. It doesn't smell bad. Can't be mad about it at all.

SPEAKER_03

Cheers, boys. Cheers.

SPEAKER_10

Cheers.

SPEAKER_03

That's very coffee-ish.

SPEAKER_10

You know, it starts to enter a struggle for me when I drink a beer and I don't know if it's a apparently a black lager. Yeah. Or a stout. Or whatever that other one was that we had.

SPEAKER_03

He drank a beer. So there is no bitter in this. No. No, this is a wonderful beer for what it is.

SPEAKER_10

Well, and so that was another interesting thing when I was looking up those IBUs on this. So it comes in at 21, right?

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

So 21 IBUs is typically more of like an amber on the bitterness scale. It's not traditionally a dark locker.

SPEAKER_09

Does it have like a checkpoint? Does it say like what for reference, like what's like a black cup of coffee?

SPEAKER_10

So it it really only I think applies to traditionally to beers.

SPEAKER_03

What does it taste like? Does that not taste familiar? Delicious. I mean, it's it is pretty delicious, but um it tastes like something that I've had before. And I can't remember if it's a stout or devil.

SPEAKER_10

It tastes like a lot, it tastes like it's been in the room with a lot of stouts that I've tried. Yeah. Like I I don't put it at like a stout level, but it's a nice getting on point if you like lagers. Yeah. And you want to try something a little heavier in the beer world.

SPEAKER_03

Well, Britt's a huge coffee person. She's she would like this. Because right out of the gate, you get that little coffee food.

SPEAKER_10

She didn't uh she didn't take mom tax today, so I'm a little surprised about that. I think she forgot.

SPEAKER_09

She will. She will. Um, a regular black of cup of just black coffee, um, while you were 100% right, the IBU scale is just for hop related beverages. Most people agree that it's right in the range of 40. Okay. That makes sense. So we're looking at like half. Half of that. Yeah. They said the twenty twenty to thirty range is bitter-ish, and then thirty to forty is where you get into your bitter flavors. Anything above forty is going to be extremely bitter.

SPEAKER_03

Can you imagine this with just a drop of creamer in it?

SPEAKER_10

Or hear me out here.

SPEAKER_03

Bailey's Bailey's in it. There's Bailey's. Bailey's. There's Kahlua or Bailey's one out there in the shop. Both of those would be good.

SPEAKER_10

We may have to take these two beers and two beers we got left and make that into five little drinks later. Yeah. On a knot.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah. What is the what's the new term for that drink because carbomb's offensive now?

SPEAKER_10

Oh, what'd they call it?

SPEAKER_09

Uh Irish Slammer? An Irish Slammer. We talked, I think we talked about that like in episode one or something. Carbom's offensive now.

SPEAKER_10

Well, Carbom has always been offensive to Irish people.

SPEAKER_03

Um secrets.

SPEAKER_02

Well, I always thought the Irish folk were badass because there was a drink called the Carbomb.

SPEAKER_03

Now that their feelings are now their CC's.

SPEAKER_09

I guess I guess it depends on which which side of Ireland you agree with.

SPEAKER_03

You know, I'm really gonna struggle with my Irish bloodline.

SPEAKER_10

You know, I think we talked about it on the Austin 316 says I just drank your stout. I just drank your stout or uh or that's cold. Stone Cold Steve Austin uh St. Patrick's Day episode.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. I drank a bear and another one. Two bear. Three bear. Four bear. He just goes.

SPEAKER_02

Five bear.

SPEAKER_09

Five bear. Hey, I'm not a I'm not a big wrestling guy, but one one thing I will say. We talk about this dude on the show a lot. We got to quit. But Pat McAfee, if we're talking about people who have taken some of the best stunners in the world, he's up there on that list. He took a great stunner from Stone Cold back in the day.

SPEAKER_10

You know, I think there's a very fine line that you need to walk when it comes to like finishers and selling when it comes to wrestling. Because there's some people, it's like that's completely believable on the move. And then some people oversell. And you look back at guys like um Ric Flair, for example. Um I can't stop thinking about that.

SPEAKER_03

Where he's in the ring going, woo, and then there's another guy over there going, woo, and they just cut that out. They're like two dogs back and forth on the fence.

unknown

Woo!

SPEAKER_10

But like specifically, like even the rock.

SPEAKER_09

Big time out of the street.

SPEAKER_10

During the well, it was especially it was with Stone Cold because they actually in the back they turned it into a game. Who could oversell it? Sell the stunner like the biggest.

SPEAKER_03

I don't watch a lot of the new age wrestling, but I I did watch a little bit of it because my daughter was seeing like uh Ripley and all that. And um and so we were trying to watch a little bit of it, and then some of them just it was bad acting, man. It was so bad. And I was like, remembering this in the NWO era and like before that, even Hulk Hogan versus Ultimate Warrior and Macho Man, Sting, you know what I'm saying? I'm like, these guys were stars, right?

SPEAKER_10

I hate to break it to you, brother. But if you go back and you watch that now, you'll see the same bad act.

SPEAKER_03

No, I did. I did, and it seemed like but that to me, I was like, there's no way.

SPEAKER_09

That to me is the whole appeal of it, though, right? Because I have I love like real fighting, and I've known that it was fake forever. It's not fake, they're athletes. Do you remember it's choreographed?

SPEAKER_03

Do you remember time though you didn't know it was choreographed and you were just like staring at the TV from inch air?

SPEAKER_09

I watched I watched UFC before, like my dad's a huge UFC guy. I remember being a little kid and watching like UFC 1 on VHS tape. You know what I mean? So I watched UFC before I got into the WWE, or I guess back then it was what? The WWF. Yeah, back then World Wrestling Federation.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, they got sued by the World Wildlife Foundation. Fun fact. Yep.

SPEAKER_02

Goobers.

SPEAKER_10

Oh we can talk about this for the rest of the night if y'all want to, but we need to rate these beers before they get warm.

SPEAKER_08

Then I'm gonna drink another beer. Do more beer. What?

SPEAKER_09

Um I listened to a podcast the other day that had Brock Lesnar on, and he did a phenomenal Stone Cold impression. Oh yeah. He did a good one. Yeah, he did. All right, Bruden. Um, I really, really like this. This is like straight up my alley. Um I think the only beer I have given a five is porch beers. Um I believe that to be true. We'll have to go back and check. But I'm gonna give it. I'm really tempted to give it a five. I really, really like it. Okay. I'm gonna go I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go 4-8. Ooh, we got close.

SPEAKER_10

He's just the math hard when I'm down calculating these little.

SPEAKER_09

He's a spreadsheet guy. He's gonna use Excel. He's not gonna do any math.

SPEAKER_03

I'm uh I am super excited that this tastes this good with this can. Because I was like, I was like, there's no way. You know, you see a cool can, nine times out of ten, it tastes like, you know, crap. But um I'm gonna go four two. And the reason being is of course it's not my everyday drinking beer, but this is probably one of my favorite black lagers. I mean, we've had some stouts and some stuff like that, like the coffee flavor, like a little cocoa. This would probably be one of my favorite. It's very smooth, and it comes in a cool can.

SPEAKER_13

It does come in a cool can. Yeah, and it reminds me of a very badass song.

SPEAKER_10

Ah. You know, when it comes to this beer, I like as we start looking at it. I gotta think about also other beers that I've rated similarly, right? And so I think this is a wonderful beer. I love the can on it. But I don't think it stands up to the same level as some of the other beers that I've drank that are around this point. So for me, I'm gonna give it a 3-9.

SPEAKER_02

3-9. Yeah, um, you know, I was kind of uh thinking something similar to that, Lane. Uh this is something, it's very smooth, you know, but this is something I can imagine myself having a whole cooler full of sitting on a riverbank drinking, you know. So this is just like a um to me, it's a little notch above your domestics, you know, but it don't pack the um same uh punch and flavor as uh some of my favorite beers. So I think I'm gonna give it a 3-7.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. Well, your your one of your favorite beers is Stout at the Devil, isn't it?

SPEAKER_02

Yep, that's uh that's up there.

SPEAKER_10

Which was actually something that I was gonna bring up, right?

SPEAKER_03

Like, so like we just had that not too long ago.

SPEAKER_10

Well, we had it when he was last time he was there. That's right, that's right. So, like, I mean, for basically the same price point, right? Like if you put a midnight special next to a Stout at the Devil, they're gonna they're gonna cost about the same amount of money.

SPEAKER_03

These are $12.00 six pack.

SPEAKER_10

Uh that's about the same price point. Yeah, yeah. And so when we look at it, like if I have a six-pack of Stout at the Devil, I've got a six-pack of Midnight Express, or Midnight Special, sorry. And I've got $13.20 in my pocket. Which one am I gonna take home with me?

SPEAKER_11

Right.

SPEAKER_10

For me, Stout at the Devil.

SPEAKER_02

I'm just gonna go ahead and grab that Stout at the Devil, you know.

SPEAKER_09

I'd have to drink them back to back. I remember really liking that one. I remember that it was real good.

SPEAKER_03

Um that's what it reminded me of, this beer. Um but it yeah, it is kind of hard after just a couple of beers. I don't know why. And having it before, it is kind of hard to remember like how how better was it? How I'd have to have them back to back.

SPEAKER_10

But I like this one. I think it's cool. It was a much more full flavor beer.

SPEAKER_09

So we went 3-7, Cody. 3-9. 3-9.

SPEAKER_03

Um, what did I do? 4-2, I think.

SPEAKER_09

4-2 and a 4-8. Cool. I think it's cool that um as we do more and more reviews, um, you know, we're kind of learning and everybody else is learning what kind of beers we like. Yeah. You know. Right.

SPEAKER_10

Yep, and with that being said, is is this episode 10? Is this episode 10?

SPEAKER_03

This is episode 9.

SPEAKER_10

This is episode 9. Moving right along. So I'll get started up um in the next day or so and I'll get the numbers ran and get our star rating up. But if you're interested in a super cool a trip to the beer store t-shirt with the nice little pocket logo on the front and the first ten beers we've consumed with the star rating on or the bottle cap rating on the back of it, reach out to us on Facebook, which we're currently grounded on, but whatever. Um well, uh we're not grounded. We cannot be recommended grounded.

SPEAKER_09

We're we're shadow banned, as the kids say.

SPEAKER_10

So basically, what that means is that when we post stuff, it's still seen by all the same people, it's still suggested to people that follow similar, but they will not recommend our page even if people like similar things. You know, and I thought that's what it was because there was a post on the uh all things Walker County page the other day, and more or less what it said was my fiancee left his wallet in the bathroom at Dairy Queen, and somebody stole all the cash that we had in it. It was this big sum of money, and we called the cops and they said it's a felony and you're going to jail. And so naturally I'm a very sarcastic person, right? Right. So from the beer store page, I commented back on it and I said the only thing in that wallet was a flat dance coupon for Wesley's and an expired condom. And so I thought I upset somebody. I thought somebody reported me. But apparently I think they just don't like our name. Because when I look under the recommendation guidelines, it said something to the effect of you can't encourage the purchase of regulated products. Oh. And so maybe that's it.

SPEAKER_02

Now it's gonna have to be a trip to the dollar store.

SPEAKER_09

We ain't trying to encourage you to buy it. We just trying to encourage you to maybe we are educating people. Drink right 17 beers.

SPEAKER_10

This isn't this is an educational program about quality br.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. But regardless of reason. If you don't drink beer, we're not trying to tell you to drink beer, but if you do drink beer, we're telling you what we feel about this one.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. And if you're a minor, we're telling you actively not to drink until you turn 21 because you know oh, that's even better. That's even better. Um, but yeah. It's too late for us. Reach out to us. Reach out to us on Facebook, reach out on us at a triptothebeer store at gmail.com. If you'd be interested in a super cool shirt coming out, we do get our first round of shirts. I should probably post a picture of what those bad boys look at.

SPEAKER_09

I'll be wearing mine. For sure. For sure.

SPEAKER_10

At least, you know, two or three times a week. I mean uh. Oh, yeah. Gotta break it in.

SPEAKER_09

Got to. Got to. By the time y'all see it, it'll be Heather Gray. I'll wear all wear all the black out of it.

SPEAKER_10

Who's Heather and why does she get a monopoly on the color gray?

SPEAKER_09

She just does, man. I don't make the rules.

SPEAKER_02

That sounds like uh, you know, like a professional's name.

SPEAKER_09

You know what I mean? Heather Gray. Heather Gray. Heather Gray, you know Heather Gray. Yeah. I think she was in that 50 Shades book. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_04

Gasoline and a ladder in a yet full of aluminum bomb fire called before it's time to get them.

SPEAKER_01

Hey guys, Brittany here, back again with a much anticipated update on the Scarlet's Babies Poker Ride. They are back, and this ride means more than the miles beneath your tires. It's for the families fighting for a chance at life, the ones who need IVF and a miracle to meet their baby. Registration kicks off at 9.30, kickstands up at 10.30, we'll roll out from Wilson's cycles, hitting stops at the barn, lake shore, and gold diggers in Double Springs before landing at the Pie Factory for the final stretch. And that's where the real magic happens. We're talking on a full-blown car and bike show, a Power Wheels race where the kids ride and the adults of the engines, raffle baskets, auction items, 50-50 drawings, multiple rounds of bingo, and every winner will walk away with something in hand. And plus, there's live entertainment still to be announced. This isn't just a ride, it's a chance to change someone's story. So fill your tank, bring your crew, and show for something bigger than yourself. Scarlet's Babies Poker Run, ride for Hope, and Ride for Life.

SPEAKER_03

Delaine, you got a little game for us, don't you?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, today we're gonna do some hot takes, right, guys? Yeah. I got lots of them. I want to make it a little spicier today. Today we're gonna talk about friendships. And we're gonna talk about some hot takes on friendships. And whether that person is a green flag or a red flag friend.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, gotcha. I might get hot.

SPEAKER_10

Based on the hot take.

SPEAKER_09

Are we about to lose friends? I may get hot on missing them, boys.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. Are you already sweating? So if you're friends with someone, you have a moral obligation to tell them that you don't like their significant outfit or their significant other, their outfit, or anything of that similar nature.

SPEAKER_09

I think so. I think so.

SPEAKER_10

Is that a red flag friend or a green flag friend?

SPEAKER_09

I am that friend, so I think that's a green flag. If you look stupid, if if we're about to go out to a bar or something and you look like hammered ass and be like, hey, man, what I think Spiffy up a little bit.

SPEAKER_03

I kind of agree with that. I think it make I mean, a good friend would just level with you.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You know, it's kind of like having a booger. I want a buddy of mine to be like, bro, you you're there's not hanging out of your face.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, but it but at the same time, you know, like if I was a single guy, which I'm not, but if I was a single guy back in the day and this guy was like dressed obnoxiously, you know, like standing out. No, you're hell yeah. You don't draw all the attention over here, bud.

SPEAKER_10

You know what I'm saying? But let's roll it this way for a second. Just a second. What if before you and Dan got married, or before you and Ray got married, before you and Britt got married?

SPEAKER_09

What do you mean? Him and Britney have always been married every time.

SPEAKER_10

Always from all the beginning of time.

SPEAKER_03

All I know is my wife.

SPEAKER_10

But you know, what would you think if your buddy came up to you and said, hey man, love you to death, but can't stand your girl.

SPEAKER_03

I've seen her in a video you don't want to know about.

SPEAKER_02

Brother, that makes two of us. Yeah. No, I am. I'm playing, man.

SPEAKER_09

I love you, honey. Uh I appreciate I appreciate the honesty, man. Because sometimes not in my situation because I love my wife. She's fantastic. I love you.

SPEAKER_03

That's all you know.

SPEAKER_09

I love my wife.

SPEAKER_02

Well, you um honestly, uh that's weird because I don't know what it feels like being in that in that situation, right? Because we're we're a good group of friends. I feel like we all love one another. We're brothers, you know what I mean? And I love all your wives, you know what I mean? All your guys, uh all the wives are friends, best friends, you know, too. I mean, we got a good thing going, you know. And and I don't know how it feels, you know, to I've been that I've been that friend.

SPEAKER_09

I've been that friend a free few times. Uh I had a good buddy, I won't say his name, but that I went to college with. And this dude was like in a great mood, man. He's like just chipper guy all the time, in a good mood, having a good time, telling jokes and stuff. He got with this girl, and like within two weeks, they moved in together, man. Like shacked up. And all of a sudden, this dude's like murdering a case of beer every day, don't want to hang out with us, like tore up all the time.

SPEAKER_03

And uh talk.

SPEAKER_09

Eventually, I kind of like kind of pulled him aside after class one day, and I'm like, hey, what what what's going on? He's like, Well, we can talk about it. You can go to the house and have a few drinks. And I'm like, It's 8 30. We just finished class, but yeah, sure, let's go. And uh just kind of through talking to him, like he he was just kind of venting. I was like, Man, I I hate to tell you, it kind of kind of sounds like your old lady sucks, you know what I mean? And I ain't I'm not trying to be disrespectful, but at the same time. I'm like we've been talking for forty five minutes. I ain't heard you say one good thing. You know?

SPEAKER_03

I'm gonna say on that one, it's gonna be a green flag for me.

SPEAKER_10

You know, because I it's a green flag. I'm honestly surprised that we all agreed on this. Yeah because I'm I'm also the same kind of guy.

SPEAKER_03

It's very situational, but realistically, I I would want to be that good friend that's just like, hey man, let's talk.

SPEAKER_10

And you know, sometimes you miss, right? Because I've got a buddy of mine, and I, listener of the show, will not shout you out. Love you, buddy. Um yes, did uh he knows who he is and he listens to the show. But you know, I told him when him and his old lady got together, I was like, listen, man, like I don't think that's the move for you. But I was wrong. They've been together for years, they're married happily, they've got a kid, they bought a house together, they're doing all the adult things. You know, I love her. I can I can tell you when I mess up, you know. I think they're I think they're very good together, you know, now. I I didn't think so, you know. Yeah, 10 years ago or whatever when they started.

SPEAKER_03

Which brings me to a point, uh Lane, I think your imaginary wife's not good for you. Yeah. Well, if anybody finds her, could you send her?

SPEAKER_02

It's starting to stink. Oh, is that it? Dishwasher, I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_03

He calls her Linda. If you touch her, just right, she'll cut you from the house.

SPEAKER_10

All right. So you do not need to talk to your best friend every day, every week, or even every month for them to be your best friend.

SPEAKER_09

I agree with that because I wouldn't have agreed when I was younger. You know, when we were in high school and there we none nobody had anything going on, nobody had families, nobody, you know, it there was no excuse not to talk every day. We saw each other every day. But now, dude, I got friends who live in Colorado, I got friends who don't live in the country that I can't tell you the last time I talked to them, they could call me right now and I'm on a plane. You know what I mean? So I I don't think I think once you have that bond, it don't matter, you know.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I have a lot of friends like that. Um, you just can pick up right where you left off.

SPEAKER_02

That's right.

SPEAKER_03

And I'd do anything for them. Um not a not a ton of friends like that, but I definitely have some. And when you talk, it's like you talked every day.

SPEAKER_02

Yep. Yeah. Well, you know, I I travel, you know, and I work long hours every single day of the week. I don't get days off. And uh a lot of times I get in and and after uh dinner, laundry, shower, you know what I mean? I got enough time to talk to the wife and kids, you know. So and it's the same thing Caitlin was saying, right? So you get back in town, everything picks up uh right where it left off.

SPEAKER_03

And there's been months we don't speak, you know, and then right back, hey, Code 45's in town.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, and it's it's the same for my work family too, you know, because uh there's some guys, you know, I might go a year without seeing, you know what I mean? I see them on a job and and we're happy to see each other. We're like, hell yeah. Just right back to being buddies. It's gonna be a good one, you know.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's definitely a green flag friend for me. Yep.

SPEAKER_10

Yep, absolutely, because like, you know, I think we all have our best, our best friend. I think everybody has their best friend, and you know, a lot of times you don't want to admit that. Oh, is that true? It's my wife. It ain't it's no one at this table. But you know, I I went to a very swallow through the window. She has a gun.

SPEAKER_03

Why do you have a gun, babe?

SPEAKER_10

I went to the game.

SPEAKER_02

She somehow tapped in listening. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_03

We're all just sitting here at the table naked. Can you stop looking through the window?

SPEAKER_10

Stop recording me.

SPEAKER_02

All of a sudden you hear the AK rack.

SPEAKER_09

You think it's green flags?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, I I I actually do. And that's because, you know, I went to a very small college, but we were very international. Yeah. Like I think while we were there, I probably had friends from like 30 different countries in a school with like 1,600 students. Um But you know, it's it's a huge thing because, you know, my best friend, you know, we talk a lot more now, and I think it's something that both him and I have both been very intentional about this year. Yeah. Is making sure that we speak to each other much more often, check in with each other much more often. Um, but you know, I'd go six months and not hear from him.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

But, you know, when we got together or when we saw each other, that was the most important thing to the world. And I almost think that that's I think it's almost kind of a guy thing.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_10

Because like I'm I can list off, you know, 20 guys right now I'd die for immediately, and probably 18 of them that I haven't seen in years.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, 100%. Yeah, and then and that and to add to that, I was speaking about my uh work family, you know, uh, you know, there there is times where we don't get the same jobs, and it it it goes a little longer than a year, you know what I mean? But uh uh when that happens, you know, um people like SIBO, you met SIBO. Oh I've met Sebo he texted me the other day, you know what I mean? I like that. Just to check in, you're doing all right, you know, that kind of thing.

SPEAKER_03

So SIBO and his wife, they're great, great people.

SPEAKER_02

Great people, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But to be honest, you talk like this.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, you're a fucking dual.

SPEAKER_03

Here's a fucking shout-out for you right here. There you go. I hope they listen to us. You got to tell them.

SPEAKER_10

Sounds a whole lot like my buddy Adam.

SPEAKER_03

They're great people, man. We had a great time when they were down.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, all right. Hey, can we tell the story real quick? Please. Oh, God. So so they're from Michigan and they they come down. Uh, we're taking a a class before we uh went on this big job. And uh so they came down from Michigan. I had uh another friend come up from uh Florida, uh Daytona, right? Old Pico. Yep. And uh we spent the week going to class. Uh they pulled their campers up here, they stayed on the lake, and uh and we hung out every day. And uh one night we made our round to all the bars, you know. And poor Ocebo had uh it was around Christmas time too, right? So they had the big toys for tots boxes out at the Crawfish warehouse. And uh and uh he had dropped uh uh his Jack and Coke. And we gave him hell, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_03

And then uh And every time we gave him hell, we we talked in their accent. Oh, look what the fuck you did there, dropping your fucking jack and coke everywhere.

SPEAKER_02

And uh the bartender was cool. She made him another one, you know. And he hadn't had it in his hand ten seconds. On around and dropped it again. And he the bartender just hell again.

SPEAKER_11

Oh fucking get. I fucking get what you fucking do, come down here to Alabama.

SPEAKER_02

So he starts smiling, you know, and he looks down and he just crouches down, and without even thinking about it, we grab that Toy for Todd's box, put it over his fucking head, and start stomping in the middle of the bartender. Thought we were being serious. I know around we were all laughing, it was hilarious.

SPEAKER_03

Well, yeah, great Tom. Great Tom.

SPEAKER_02

It's good for you. It's good for you.

SPEAKER_03

So shout out, SIBO and Linda. We'll see you, SIBO. And you do there, Linda.

SPEAKER_10

Oh man. All right, so this next one is the borrowed gear friend. So let's say your buddy asks you for something like high value. Maybe like uh needs to borrow you truck to make a run or something. So your buddy brings you truck back after you go on your run. After he goes on his run, and is completely washed by hand, vacuumed out, and it's got a full tank of gas in it, and you gave it to him with a quarter. Is that a green flag or a red flag?

SPEAKER_09

That's the the gas is the bare minimum. You know what I mean? Washing it's going above and beyond. That's a that's a green flag.

SPEAKER_03

What did you do with it? What are you trying to apologize for?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah if I mean, I don't care if it comes back, you know, I didn't have to wash it, you know. Hold on. I'm living on borrowed time, you know what I mean? I I take I take a lot of pride in uh detailing my vehicles, but if I don't have to do it, hey, yeah, bud.

SPEAKER_03

We're all best friends here, and y'all never done that for me. Yeah, hey, you want to borrow it? You won't even return my letter.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

To be honest, it says Lindsay on it. I'm not even sure it's yours.

SPEAKER_10

That's my alter ego.

SPEAKER_02

He he borrowed that from a friend. Yeah. You missed you missed the high hill prints in the ceiling.

SPEAKER_09

Lindsay. Yeah. Um that's definitely a green flag. I will say that that is even above a green flag because to me, as long as you fill it back up, that that's cool with me.

SPEAKER_03

And I would I'm that guy. I'm gonna put some gas in it or something, but I don't know about like going through and detailing it. Not unless I like seriously had to use it and got it filthy. I would I rush it, of course, but um that's uh it's like hey man, if you get pulled over tomorrow, uh you know nothing about cocaine. Yeah, oh okay. That's why it's so clean. Yeah, but it smells like ammonia. There was a dead body in the back. Yeah, that's a green flag. 100%.

SPEAKER_10

You know, I thought and I thought it would be, but yeah, it does raise some serious questions. Like what did you do?

SPEAKER_09

Hey, and honestly, just to just to be clear, I don't know how you guys were raised, but the concept of borrowing a vehicle or a lawnmower or uh anything like that. Yeah, gas is bare minimum.

SPEAKER_02

And bringing it back on E, my grandfather would beat me to death. I used to do that shit to my dad all the time.

SPEAKER_11

He was like, hey boy, I told you put some gas in that thing. I'm like, I did. And he's like, Yeah, and you burn it out too.

SPEAKER_09

My my papa called me one time. He was joking around with me. I borrowed his truck, I don't remember what I borrowed his truck for, but he had a nice, brand new RAM, just beautiful truck. And uh filled it up, used it, whatever, filled it up, took it back to him. And he has two or three different trucks, so it's not uncommon. He won't drive that one for a week or whatever. Well, a week goes by, week and a half, something like that, and he calls me. And he goes, Hey, um, I uh let you borrow my truck, and I said, Yeah, yes, sir. What's going on? He said, I ain't got no gas in it. I said, No, no, no, I I filled it up. And he goes, I'm just telling you, it's on E. I said, No, no, sir, I'm telling you, I promise you. I you know I wouldn't do that shit. He said, I've been driving around for a week and it's on E. You need to come fill a sink up.

SPEAKER_03

That's good stuff. I don't think you're understanding, huh?

That friend who finds out that you're interested in something that they know nothing about, and they spend the entire next month learning everything about it, and then try to act like they know more than you.

But no, that was that is a miserable red flag for that.

SPEAKER_09

That category of person, I refer to the one-up person. Like that's their that's their brand of people. That is the quickest way to get me to hate you. Like, quick like. If I say uh, and some biker guys are like this. Like every once in a while you'll catch a biker guy who's like, hey, is that your bike? Yes, sir. What kind of what engine you got in it? Oh, it's 98. Well, man, I got I got that one seventeen. Oh, awesome, man. That's really cool. And like everything has to be, well, it's bigger. It's bigger. You know, that irritates the hell out of me. Or, hey man, I uh uh I've been riding, I just finished building this chopper or whatever. I like when they invent parts that don't exist and say theirs as that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

SPEAKER_03

A little off subject with that. I worked with this old guy. And I mean, he was on uh service crew. So when you when you cut out of the mine, you got the miner that goes in there, cuts out, the pinner goes in behind it, pins the top, and the service crew comes in there and ventilates the air, right? This dude, big shout out to him because I had all the respect in the world for him, but he was near retirement, and he would get right beside a tool. Like his hand would be nearly touching it, and he'd be like, Rockstar, hand me that take measure right there. I'm on the other side of the piece of equipment. I'm like, oh no, it's right there. He's like, Yeah, looking away, he's like, hand it to me. Alright, yeah, let me climb over this huge, you know. Yeah, but you you just did it knowledge.

SPEAKER_09

And that's a hundred percent what he was doing. You know what I mean? He just wanted you to stop what you were doing to come hand him that tool.

SPEAKER_02

But yeah, we run into a couple of friends of ours when we were out of town working. Uh they were on another job. We had no idea they were even in the same town, they were just staying in the same place, even, you know. And uh we went to say hello to them, and uh one of them was in the shower, you know, and the other one's like, yeah, yo, come on in. Oh what's I ain't gonna mention his name. Oh what's the name in the shower, you know? And he was an old man, you know. So we sit there, we're dranking a very tough one guy, you know. And then uh buddy comes out of the shower. I'm sitting uh at the end of the bed in the chair, you know, and he flops down on this bed and throws his crusty fucking feet like three inches from where I'm sitting and goes, I'm gonna let you do my feet.
