Let me see what they got to see what they see what they got to say. Yeah. But yes, uh, welcome back to Royal Street Sessions. Uh my name is Angel. This is Josh. And we have Bree. Our AI voice. It's the AI fact checker.
SPEAKER_04Has been named now. Anyways. We should have came up with a funny acronym that BRI could have meant for uh like an AI thing. Let's do that real quick.
SPEAKER_03Be really investigative. That's really fucking good. Off the jump. That was really good. You told her I could be a rapper.
SPEAKER_04That was really good.
SPEAKER_03Told her if I really tried one day. You just thought of that? I did. What the fuck? Nice. Shout out 50 Cent. That's all right. And uh Get Richard I trying. Hell yeah. You like that movie? You ever seen it? Uh we talked about a long time.
SPEAKER_04We did mention it for some reason.
SPEAKER_03I think we mentioned it, yeah.
SPEAKER_04Why? What was the shout-out for? Just cuz? Yeah. He was like Viddy. I noticed on our music episode I didn't even talk about like my favorite rappers. You talked about you your love of white rappers over black rappers, and I was like, all right, and it kind of made the room weird. And then I was like What's crazy?
SPEAKER_03I there's a lot of things I did not talk about that I could have talked about.
SPEAKER_04Right?
SPEAKER_03Like there's so much.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Music's a big one, though. It's a very broad subject. So we could have talked for hours on that.
SPEAKER_03I think if anything, we gave the listeners a little all right, cool. Different different, like not just I don't remember what we talked about.
SPEAKER_04That's every episode. I have no idea what I leave here and I go, what the fuck was that?
SPEAKER_03You know, normally I do notes, but I I don't now. Because you're in it too. Because I'm in it. Yeah, you can't just pause and take notes on it. Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. Usually behind the scenes. I mean, I could do it on my phone right now. But no. Yeah, true. Uh it's fun when I look it up when I'm listening. Yeah. When I'm editing. Hearing it for the first time. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04That's fun.
SPEAKER_03And then I'm like, did we really say that?
SPEAKER_04I said the thing just now. I'm gonna kill myself. Which part again? I said that's fun. Uh oh. I'm I gotta stop. Are you counting? Oh fuck. AI. We're gonna have a that's fun counter. Oh, don't count. Alright, whatever. Number three.
SPEAKER_03Okay, we're good, we're good, we're good, we're good, we're too. We're good. No, but um I feel like, yeah, I figured one day we'll get to we'll get to movies, but again, that is very broad. That is a very huge, huge thing to talk about. Yeah. I feel like we watched different types of movies. Or at least I at least grew up on different types of movies for sure. Yeah. I think. I didn't yeah, I didn't especially. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Especially the animated part, you know? Yeah. Yeah, I didn't watch, yeah, just like the basic kids' movies. I never really got in. I think I I watch more than I give myself credit for, but I I definitely missed a lot of them. I've never seen The Lion King. Never saw it.
SPEAKER_03Alright, the show's over. I know. I'm sorry. People get pissed. No, I'm just kidding. People get pissed. I I never saw it. It has been a long time since I've seen the animated, the original. I've been live action. I recently just saw the live action. Is it good? And I told her, I was like, wait, is it I asked her, I was like, is it actually this funny? Like the animated? Like, is it actually just like this? That's Timon and Pumba. Especially them. Yeah. It's Michael Key Keegan and uh Keegan, Michael Key. Yeah, that guy. Yep. And I don't know the tall dude's name. He's in Parks and a rec, a Somalier for Tom's Bistro. Oh, uh, yeah. Yeller? Yeah.
SPEAKER_04He had a he had his own show for a minute, Andy on the Street. Is it Andy on the Street? No, it's uh Brian on the Street. I know our AI fact checker's looking it up. And I want to I want to guess. Don't tell me. But those voices.
SPEAKER_03But those voices, oh, voice acting.
SPEAKER_04What is that guy's name? It's gonna drive me crazy.
SPEAKER_03Don't worry, she'll tell us in a second.
SPEAKER_04Hold on, give me a hint. It's some give me the name of his show. It was something on the Billy on the Street, Billy Eichner.

I want to get Vinny in here so bad. It's WrestleMania this weekend. It is. It is. And I'm for the first time in a couple years, I might not watch it. I'm just not that invested in wrestling right now. Oh. Yeah. Billy Eichner.
SPEAKER_03He was right. He was right. It is, in fact, Billy Eigner. Let's go. She could push a button right now, but I don't know what I'm pushing, so I'm not going to push it. Just push a random one. Hit that yellow one. What is this? Yeah. That was a fail for us pushing the wrong button.
SPEAKER_01That was a fail for AI taking too long.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03No, no, you're good. She called herself out. You heard that, right? AI is doing it.
SPEAKER_04We have a very accountable AI.
SPEAKER_03Yep. She worked for a bank for almost a decade, too. So talk about accountable. That was good. Hey, you're on your fucking game today. I didn't even think about it that way. I was just talking.
SPEAKER_04You are fucking firing on all cylinders, Angel.
SPEAKER_03That's good.
SPEAKER_04Oh, almost said it. Um almost said the thing.
SPEAKER_03That's hilarious. So you already have to. That's like uh we do we count things too, like the movie holes. You've seen the movie holes? Check it out.
SPEAKER_04No, I've seen it. I've seen Amber force me to watch it, and it's fun, but it's not. Well, I said it's fun, that doesn't count. I I liked it. That still counts, I think. I liked it. We'll count it for. We're at four funds. That that one doesn't. Okay. Four or no, no, no, uh, holes. What about it? So you she was you were forced to watch it? Yeah, Amber made me well. I'd never seen it. And Amber, there's like those movies in her life where she was like, Well, you have to watch this, and holes is one of them because she kept referencing it, like, that's too damn bad. And I was like, I don't I was like, what the fuck are you doing? She was like, that's the thing.
SPEAKER_03I was like, I'm tired of this grandpa. Yeah, it's a fun movie though. Yeah, so uh I think uh I forgot what year, what year did we move in the house? Uh I think it was like 2021, 2023. Okay. We moved into the house. She worked from home. I was jobless for a while.
SPEAKER_04The house you're learning now?
SPEAKER_03Yes. Okay. And uh holes was my movie. I would play it every day. Oh, really? Like multiple times, probably. And she worked from home, so she could hear the movie every single time. Just in the background? In the background, every single time. Why are we talking about holes again? You know what my I don't know why you brought it up. Oh, there we go.
SPEAKER_01We were counting things, like sample his um.
SPEAKER_03Oh yeah. Sorry, it went on a different uh tangent. Tangent. Uh, we count how many times he says, I can fix that.
SPEAKER_01As well as, excuse me.
SPEAKER_03Yes. Okay. She says that 11 times, and then he says it four times. How many times do you think you've seen holes? Uh at least 50. Really?

SPEAKER_03They're actually in the process of uh making grind two. Really? Yes. Casey Lascala, the director, has already talked to uh basically all the actors that were in it, and they're all down.
SPEAKER_04Nice. I've been on the search this is maybe TMI. I've been on the search for this movie. I don't know what it is. I've asked ChatGPT. Let's see if RAI can bring it up. I don't think you're gonna be able to because this is how I'm describing it. Here it goes. I was 12, maybe, and I don't know how I got a hold of this. Maybe an irresponsible family member. And it was a movie about snowboarding. Oh very broad. I think I say porn. I'm getting there. Um a lot of tits in this movie. Like a lot of tits. And I I don't like I I don't remember much about it except there was like a jacuzzi scene and there was a lady with boobs in it, and then there was would it possibly be hot tub time machine?

SPEAKER_01Okay, what year would that be approximately?
SPEAKER_04Let's do let's let's go from the range of like oh five to like oh nine. Oh five to oh nine.
SPEAKER_01Okay, that at least narrows it down. I can do some further research and try to figure it out for you.
SPEAKER_03Hit me back. This that okay, this whole process just brings me back to like that'd be like me equivalently equivalently trying to figure out which first porn movie I saw. Yeah. That my brother I'm basically what I'm trying to find. That I knew that was recorded. Holy fucking shit, you might have found it.
SPEAKER_01It is called Frostbite. Hold on, let me look into this a little bit. 2005.

SPEAKER_03Alright. 15 minutes and we're ripping, dude. This is good. So this episode is I I wanted it to be about us. And what I've noticed is that we don't. I mean, yes, I want to get into it more about like what we actually do for work and what we do outside of work and stuff, but what people don't know or know what they know now is what they hear is what happens off audio. Yeah. The way we react, the way we talk to each other. Yeah. It's the exact same. Yeah. The only difference is that we're in front of a mic and we're kind of putting on a show. Yeah, it's a little elevated. The only difference is that there's a mic in front of us.
SPEAKER_04My heart rate goes up by like 10 beats when I'm on mic. And that, I mean, you can blame the caffeine as well. It's my fight or flight reflexes, dude. I'm just in fucking fight mode right now.
SPEAKER_03But yeah, you so yeah, I want to get into it. Um, it'll come in casually.
SPEAKER_04Just like no, let's get the fuck into it, dude. Let's do a hard reset on whatever let's do it. How was work today? Did you have a good day at work, honey? So what's did you say honey?
SPEAKER_03What do you what's a alright? I do want to talk about work. Okay, so alright. I guess I'll I guess I'll start it. So my name is Angel and I work for a church. Nice. I am the maintenance technician, one of three. I am the entry level, which means that I am still learning slash when there are jobs that they don't want to do, or even like even wanna, you know what I'm saying? Like if they don't want to paint, if they don't want to go do this. Yeah, you're like a handy. But here you go, go send angel. Jack Ball Trey. Let's go do this. Yeah. And that's another thing. I work with my hands. Yeah. Not a lot of people do it nowadays.

Like if I have to. Yes. Oh, that sucks. But like minor, like not huge. Yeah. Like if it's like something like big, like a really big job, then we'll call like people in. Yeah. Especially when it comes to painting. I hate painting. Dude, painting's the worst. I hate, I hate it. It's so I loathe it.
SPEAKER_04I thought every time when I paint shit around the house, I like tape stuff. You tape like the corners and edges and stuff.
SPEAKER_03I do.
SPEAKER_04Dude, then you talk to real painters and they go, if you're using tape, you're a fucking pussy and you're bad at your job. And you go, What the fuck? I thought I was killing it by doing tape. Apparently, tape's a fucking you're not supposed to do that. You get cleaner edges if you just hire a professional, they don't use tape, they just fucking swipe it.
SPEAKER_03I could see I've seen those videos. I'm not gonna lie. I've seen those videos.
SPEAKER_04You know what videos get me? Sheetrockers. Dude's throwing up like a fucking full panel of sheetrock in like 30 seconds. Uh shit gets me rocking. And then the hard paste. It's incredible. The putty incredible. The tape infloated immediately. We have a at work, we have a dude that's like our sheetrock guy. We like hire him for all of our jobs. Yeah, he's incredible. Yeah, he's so good. Yeah. I just watch him patch holes that we make and shit all the time. It's like, damn, bro, you're just you're on fire.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.

SPEAKER_03Let him know what's going on. Let's get it.
SPEAKER_01Their episode counts. It's not just you. Alright, that's fine. So the 11 example, when you watch holes, that includes anyone saying, excuse me. Oh, okay. So it's it's in total, not just you.
SPEAKER_04What are we at?
SPEAKER_01We're at six right now.
SPEAKER_0320 minutes in. I have added two to that.
SPEAKER_0420 minutes in, we're at six.
SPEAKER_03Um so basically when it comes to the when it comes to the work and my job, there's uh there's a few buildings. And within those buildings, there's people. Clearly. Shout out. Shout out buildings.
SPEAKER_04I love going in buildings.
SPEAKER_03Uh now so uh the fathers, the priests, they live on site. And there's times when we have to go inside. Is that all Catholic churches? I believe it is. That's cool.
SPEAKER_04I just found out about that recently. It's always like the house across the street. Yeah, it's that's like where the the what's it called, a priest in cat Catholicism? Is it a priest or a father? What's it called? Either way. Just a priest. That's where the priest always lives.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, and they call it the rectory. Well, we call it the rectory. I'm assuming it's the same for all Catholic churches. Yeah. Call it the rectory, and then there's also the convent, which is where the nuns would live. So you go inside their house sometimes? Yeah, when we have to. Yeah, what's a fucking priest's house like? So they're all they're all unique, they're all really cool. It's actually really nice. It's really clean well, obviously they have a cleaning lady. Well, not obviously, but we do. Yeah, yeah. There's a cleaning lady that comes once a week and does her thing. But yeah, they're all different in their own way. Uh the one of them graduated from Texas uh tech. Okay. So he's got his Texas Tech stuff up.
SPEAKER_04Um they had their own STD on campus. It's called the Raider Rash. They're the Red Raiders. Oh, you scared me. I was like, what? They had their own STD on campus because they're so isolated, but it's a college town, so like, you know, people have sex. And then they had their own like form of some kind of STD that they called the Raider Rash. Anyways, go ahead, sorry. One of your priests was from there. Definitely wasn't a part of that. I doubt he was a part of that. Definitely not. I didn't know priests went to college. I thought they went to seminaries.
SPEAKER_03So that they do that too. Okay. It's both. What's his degree in? Do you know? I forgot what it's a few times. It's probably like you're not going to be able to do that. I forgot what both of them are. Well, I don't know what the third one is. I never went into his room to clean or to change the light bulb.
SPEAKER_04Wait, do they all live in the same house?
SPEAKER_03Three. There's three and one, and then yeah, three and one, and then the our fourth has he's in the convent by himself.
SPEAKER_04What's what like this size house?
SPEAKER_03Uh three three bed, two. Oh, they all have their own little suites in a way. Like each each room was like expanded and/or built. So I have a bathroom and they each have their own Yeah, they each have their own bathroom. Damn, that's tight. They have like a living room and stuff, they all chill in. They share the same living room, they share the same kitchen, they share the same dining room.
SPEAKER_04It's like a fucking halfway house.
SPEAKER_03But they all have their own suite next to their bedrooms.
unknownWow.
SPEAKER_03Like so they all have their own hangout place within their bedrooms. That's cool. So so it's really nice. They're all uh one's from Texas Tech, the other one is uh what is uh uh A M. That's what it is. Yeah, Texas AM. Okay. And then I don't remember the third one. I don't think.
SPEAKER_04Do you have to go to college to be a priest?
SPEAKER_03Yeah, you do.
SPEAKER_04What? Yeah, you have to have a degree.
SPEAKER_03You gotta have a degree, yeah. I did not know that. And I don't know, I again I don't remember the degree.
SPEAKER_04That's wild.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Just at this church or like in general?
SPEAKER_03You know, I you know I I don't wanna I I don't want to be wrong.
SPEAKER_04I don't No, you go yeah, yeah, it's fine.
SPEAKER_03I don't want to be I don't know if you do have to. Yeah. But ours ours happen to have one. That's cool. But you do have to, but I do I think you have to go to college. I think you have some type to you have to have some type of degree.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, I guess I don't know, I guess that makes sense. I mean they have like religious studies majors, so maybe it's like uh Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, okay. That's cool. I don't I I don't I haven't already. So what's like an average I know you're you do a bunch of different shit, but what's like an average day of work look like for you? You pull up and what's the first thing on the docket?
SPEAKER_03So I always check the event calendar. Okay. Uh because you know it's a church there could be a funeral that morning, there could be uh uh wedding rehearsal that night, there could be a wedding. Okay, there could be stuff. Like that, so we'll get the stuff ready for the day. So then I'll check work orders. A lot of work orders are from the school. There's a private Catholic school on the on site. Um I'll check those. Work orders meaning like requests for maintenance. Exactly. For things for things that need to so like again, uh a light bulb, something simple. Okay. It could be a light bulb or it could be uh a leak from the AC is happening, which those are major. Even though it doesn't sound like it, those are pretty major. Yeah, no, yeah. When it comes to mace a maintenance at least. Yeah. Um a broken bench or something as wobbly, like we come look at it, or say we get uh like we get we got new benches for the pickup line. Yeah. So we gotta work orders to put those together.
SPEAKER_04What's the pickup line? The school pickup line? Yeah, like school.
SPEAKER_03Um so yeah, basically just checking work orders and just doing stuff, keeping busy. Uh for the most part, uh, we're always we always have to pick up trash, like make the place look, like make it look nice.
SPEAKER_04That's what I was gonna ask. So is there like there's daily tasks that you have to do on top of Mr. Fixit type stuff, right? Correct. And then is there like a hierarchy? Do is there like a like a grading system of like how urgent something needs to be fixed?
SPEAKER_03So yes, on the work orders that will say whether it's either normal or high importance. Okay, yeah, that's what I was wondering. Usually the high importance ones are like it depends. Sometimes they're exaggerating and it's yeah, yeah, and it's something we can't fix like that.
SPEAKER_04Is it who does who determines whether it's high or normal urgency? Is it like who puts in the order? It is whoever puts in the order. So like some dramatic ass teacher could be like, oh my god, my chair's squeaking.
SPEAKER_03Yes, basically. Just being a good thing. But the but the principal has to do it. The principal has to put the order in. Oh, okay. So he finalizes it. I assumed it was he.
SPEAKER_04Sorry, but and it is a girl. Wow, I'm a piece of shit.
SPEAKER_03She has to come and eventually make the full, like, okay, yeah, I'll put in a work order for this. Nice. Um, but for the most part, uh, yeah, it's like making a lot of a lot of I I pick up trash a lot. And that was my ex I used to be a custodian too, so that's that's a big part of why. And also, like, you know, why not keep the church when you drive up looking clean? Like the landscaping, everything look nice. Do y'all do the landscaping there too, or do you all have a crew for that? No, so there's actually ministries for that. So they'll come cut it for free. Nice. Uh, on their days when they, you know, when they can fit them in their schedules.
SPEAKER_04What's what do you mean a ministry for? There's like specific.
SPEAKER_03So there's just ministries, like squads, like people, yeah. Ministries are like uh Does ministry just mean a group of people? It's basically a group of people all there for the same purpose.
SPEAKER_02Yes. Dope.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. And it's mainly religious. Yeah, yeah. Like you usually do a prayer or say a verse or something.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03Or you know. That's cool. It's all in the under the same, like you know, under God and stuff. Yeah. Um I drive around a golf cart a lot. That's so tight. Which I've gained a lot of weight. Because you're riding around. Because I used to walk every day. I used to clean in portions of a school. Yeah. So I'd I'd get 12,000 steps a day at least.
SPEAKER_04So why is it because you have to carry a bunch of equipment? Is that why you ride the golf cart?
SPEAKER_03No, it's because we're uh I work on such a big uh it's 13 acres. Oh shit. When you put it all together of like the parking lot and everything and like all the buildings, it's 13 acres of everything.
SPEAKER_04Oh my god. I had no idea it was that big.
SPEAKER_03It doesn't, you don't, you don't even it doesn't, it doesn't look like it. It doesn't feel like it. Weird. That's fucking huge. But yeah, when you're like when you're actually like driving uh through the parking lot and during the week when it's empty, like it is huge. Because when you drive, because you there's no way you get a parking spot on the weekends, like on a Saturday or Sunday, like during service, there's no way you're gonna get a spot. If you're not there early, you gotta park across the street. You have like overflow parking, or is it just like so the overflow parking is across the street and behind the school? Okay. Uh but for the most part, you'll always have to walk if you're not there early. It just gets that busy.
SPEAKER_04How early? How early does uh does the original like the main parking place fill up? Uh like it masses at six. If you're not there by five, you're fucked, or is it like so?
SPEAKER_03I think the earliest mass on the weekends is seven. So if you're not there by like six forty-five, yeah, you're screwed. That's not bad. It still sucks. Yeah. You still gotta walk a lot. It's like even if you park far. Do you have like designated old people parking? I mean, yeah, you got a lot of reserve parking. Okay, good. Yeah. But we actually recently just put like the uh the the signs that if like violation, whatever you will be towed. Oh, okay. Those are separate signs. Like enforcing it, yeah. Yeah, it used to just be the like reserve, like reserve for a van or whatever, or you know, but now it says Yeah, you'll be whatever you said. Towing enforced. Yeah, and then like we put no parking signs up because people were starting people were parking everywhere. People park on the fire lane. Yeah. Fire lane and stuff. So that's where that that's where that one episode where I I forgot which episode it says where I put the pipe or I broke two pipes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The irrigation, right? Doing the the no parking sign. Yeah. Yeah, that's yeah, that's where that came into play.
SPEAKER_04And how many people are in your position? It's a big ass that's a big ass complex. So like how many of you are there?
SPEAKER_03So there's three of us. There's the main there's the senior, there's uh the head, and I don't know, and then there's me, the entry level.
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_03How long how long's the main dude been doing it? Uh he's been there seven years. Oh, okay. His name's Paul. He's 87 years old. What? He's still moving, he's still getting up and down. Damn. He's still doing it all. Shout out Paul. Straight up Mr. Paul Walker. Is his name Paul Walker? It is. Is he hot as hell too? Uh used to be? I I guess you could say used to be. Is he white? Yes. Okay.
SPEAKER_04Yes.
SPEAKER_03Old white, sweet, very, very cool old man. Just a sweet old white man named Paul Walker.
SPEAKER_04Very cool, yes. He's the only Paul Walker that's gonna get old. Because the other one died young was the joke I was making. Sorry. It's dumb.
SPEAKER_03No, but yeah, no, I mean, every time people, every time he he every time he says his name, people think of him. Yeah. Like when he calls doctors or whatever, though. Do you make fast and furious jokes at him? I do not.
SPEAKER_04I do not. You should. Does he walk slow as hell because he's old? He's got his little wobble, but you should start calling him too fast too furious. It's like, whoa, whoa, they're speed raiser. He probably likes it.
SPEAKER_03No, he plays along too. He likes it. Yeah. He's uh I think what's funny too, I think me and uh my other coworker Sergio the way we just get along, and then like we get along with Paul. We I think we we see a lot of vulgar jokes around each other. Yeah, and like we'll say to Paul. And like Paul eventually starts saying it back, we're like, oh shit. I think we uh uh what's that word? Uh what's that? Unleash a demon? When you turn someone toxic or whatever. Oh yeah. Just I guess you're right. Uh corrupted them. Yeah, there you go.
SPEAKER_04I think we corrupted Fall. Like he's if there's one thing I've learned from being around a lot of old white men, it can go one of two ways. If you start cracking like dirty jokes around them, they're either gonna fucking be really upset or they're gonna say the nastiest shit you've ever heard in your life. Yes, yes. A 90-year-old white dude will hit you with some shit that you're like, you can't say that out loud, bro. That's crazy.
SPEAKER_03There'll be a lot of times too, he'll say something and be like, What is that? He was like, You've never heard that. Bro, there's no one hornier than an 80-year-old dude. I was like, No, Paul. Yeah, we're literally 55 years old. 55, sorry, 54 years apart. That's insane. That's so crazy. What's funny too is uh he's 87, my other coworker's 52, and I'm 33. So we're all got the huge age gap.
SPEAKER_04Bro, Paul was like 25 when the Super Bowl was opening. That shit still blows my mind. I wish the Super Bowl thing hit other people. I bring it up to a lot of people. No one cares. Super Bowl? Yeah, no one cares. So I mean, I don't care when it's there. No, it's just like uh it blows my mind, but I think people don't hype the Super Bowl up as much in their head as I do. It's all good.
SPEAKER_03Paul It used to be. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04We actually uh but does that fact not that's not great, like crazy to you that he was like in his 20s when they invented the Super Bowl? That's crazy to me.
SPEAKER_03Bro, he'll tell us stories when he's like casually, and then he'll be like, when was that? He'd be like, it was like 1958. Jesus.
SPEAKER_04They were driving around in Model T's, bro.
SPEAKER_03They're telling you the story, driving around in fucking that's insane. He's just so casual the way he like tells his stories.

SPEAKER_03Um, yeah. Uh so yeah, with this with this third round of the 75 hard. Yeah, I don't know, just the sweets. Well, she started making like sweets with like dates and chia seeds and do you like dates? Coco, coco, cocoa cacao. Yeah, do you like dates? I actually do. They're fucking great. I used to like them before I knew you can make fucking fudge brownies. She makes brownies out of them. Dude, they're so good. They taste like legit brownies, but they're made out of dates.
SPEAKER_04Everyone in my life shits on dates. They're so good. They're good. They're so good. It's literally natural sweet. It's nature's candy. It's literally, literally. They're so good. Yeah, no, I love dates. I eat dates. Actually, not too often. I used to eat them a lot, but they're very expensive. If you get like the good ones, the organic pitted ones for like a decent box, it's like nine fucking dollars. We do the H E B uh Oh, no one we all reached and no one touched it. Go ahead.
SPEAKER_03Well, I was pointing.
SPEAKER_01Oh, we get them from the the healthy area. The kombucha aisle. To put them in a bag and weigh them.
SPEAKER_04Oh, they have their own at HEB?
SPEAKER_01Yes, and they are already pitted. They have the non-pitted ones, but I don't feel like dealing with the hassle of that.
SPEAKER_04I've never had a non-pitted date.
SPEAKER_01And the brownie things that he's talking about, it's dates, peanut butter, almond flour, and like baking soda. Damn and chia seeds, and that's it. And it tastes legitimately like a brownie.
SPEAKER_04No cacao or anything?
SPEAKER_01Well, cacao, yeah, to add that chocolate. Okay. Um, and the almond flour is only like a fourth of a cup.
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_01That sounds so good. They're pretty healthy and they're really good.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, that sounds good. Do you grind out the dates?
SPEAKER_01Um, no, you soak them in water for like 20 to 30 minutes. Um, and then you like literally uh use a food processor and just blend it all together. Nice. Okay.
SPEAKER_03You get the little text great. You get the texture of the chia seeds. Yeah. Every once in a while.
SPEAKER_04Protein.
SPEAKER_03But the flavor, the flavor is like you're like, wow. Like not only is it sweet, you get that chocolate, and you're like, this is healthy. I'm so fucking hungry right now. This time, it turned into another food, dude.
SPEAKER_04Every time we talk food, I get so I was munching when you showed up. I'm always munching. I'm so hungry.
SPEAKER_03Oh bro, you got us to buy the wild fucking fuck you for making us buy that. So good, aren't they? I say it in a loving way. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04What kind you get?
SPEAKER_03We got the buffalo and the spicy kesso.
SPEAKER_04Do you like the buffalo? I did. I don't. I did. The only time I'll put a little sour cream on the buffalo one to taper it down a little. It's so I like buffalo, but those are the only flavor, or that's the only flavor of those chip that I feel like is just too fucking strong. It's so strong.
SPEAKER_03It's too buffalo-y. I didn't mind it. And I and I thought it was not okay. So I've had more buffalo buffalo-y. This one was perfect buffaloy. Okay. For me. Okay.
SPEAKER_01It might be overly buffalo because it is straight chicken. So maybe it just enhances the buffalo flavor.
SPEAKER_04It's almost like eating a wing. Yeah. They have a salt and vinegar one that's the best chip I've ever eaten in my life. If y'all like salt and vinegar chips.
SPEAKER_03I we saw that. I was like, uh fucking salt and vinny?
SPEAKER_04Dude.
SPEAKER_03I don't.
SPEAKER_04They're so good.
SPEAKER_03I will eat it because I'm a I'm a fat ass. I'll eat it, but I'm not a huge fan. Yeah. They're great. If I mean, obviously it's unaquired. If you don't like it, you've got to do it. I saw the pink Himalayan salt ones after.
SPEAKER_04That's the only one I I think I've had it once. It's just like, all right, bro, it's a fucking chip. Add some flavor. I don't want to just eat the buttons.
SPEAKER_03For the listeners who don't know, wild protein chips are literally chicken breast. Yeah. And egg whites. Egg whites and starch. Tapioca starch.
SPEAKER_04Tapioca starch. It's protein chips. It's wild with an E and they have a bunch of flavors four packs.
SPEAKER_03Straight up eating chicken. Yeah. In a chip form.
SPEAKER_04So good. So good.
SPEAKER_03It is so good.
SPEAKER_04So good. Perfect texture. So crunchy. Oh, they're good. Like a little pricey, but worth it.
SPEAKER_03Yes, you're in the healthy aisles. Definitely a little pricey. I saw we even debate it too. We're like, okay, so you can get one bag, one big bag of 2.25 ounces for $4.98. Yep. Or you could buy the multi-pack, four packs, four bags of 1.34 ounces. Yeah. For $8.98. So $9.
SPEAKER_04It just kind of depends on which one has the coupon. At the time, there's usually a coupon. But I usually buy the four packs because we keep them in the truck that way we can just kind of grab one.
SPEAKER_03We bought the multi-pack for like you get a little better.
SPEAKER_04It's a little better. It's the way to go. Yeah. And you don't have to eat them all at once and they get stale or whatever. So but I mean I fucking fly through those things. I go probably through. Yeah, I eat one at least every day. I do the chicken and waffles a lot. And then those are so good. Yeah. RAI saying thumbs up.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, that's chicken and those chicken and waffles is when you let me uh when you last time.
SPEAKER_04Is that the one I I thought I gave you the queso?

SPEAKER_01You did. I forgot about it for a second, but it was really, really good. Right? One of those can't believe it wasn't Snickers. I know. Um, just like the can't believe it's not brownies.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, no, they're great. That Unreal brand, I eat a lot of their candy. A lot of their candy.
SPEAKER_01Those chicken and waffle chips though, like straight maple syrup taste. It was amazing.
SPEAKER_04So good. I smell them on my fingers for maybe three days afterwards, though. It's very weird. I want to watch the thing. I do. Yeah. I forget about that part. Forget the shower. Y'all think y'all are fucking funny teaming up on me, dude? That was like that was like perfect.
SPEAKER_03All right, let's go back to uh our jobs. Um your daily, yeah, we were talking about your daily routine. That's good. That's basically pretty much it. I mean, for the most part, and then letting in the people at the church at the right time. Because the church is not always open. The chapel is always open.

Okay, to where you will be called if you're oh, he's on with the cops. Oh yeah. But the non-emergency. Yeah, yeah. Unless obviously they're welling around the night for some bullshit. Yeah. Um yeah, uh, it's letting in the right people at the right time. Yeah. And if you gotta make sure. That's why I checked the event calendar.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, I didn't think about the event thing. You practically work at an event hall also. Yes. It's like a groundskeeper version or like and event. Yeah, that's crazy.
SPEAKER_03And then every week there's a lot of shit. Every week on like a Tuesday, there's a specific group that will take over the whole hall. Literally, the whole hall. Yeah. And will have their prayers and food, a lot of food.

SPEAKER_02I think at least ten.
SPEAKER_04Oh, okay. Yeah. It's been dead a minute. It's yeah, it's been a minute. Sorry to hear that, R.I.P. Sorry. Uh yeah, we're gonna insulation. Different types of insulation for sure. We do mostly fiberglass, but we have we do foam also, spray foam, and then mineral wool, rock wool. Whoa, it's a boring mineral wool. It's rock wool. It's just like ground up rocks and wool. It's like a cleaner. Well, what are you insulating when you when it comes to that? Everything, dude. Walls, ceilings, just a huge attics. So just is that like more money? More expensive? Uh it is more expensive, yeah. It's like a cleaner substitute. It sucks. It itches and it hurts. And um, it makes me makes me not happy. Sounds like rich people's stuff. It is. For the most part, it is. Because I've never heard of that. Yeah, no, Rockwool. It's it's it's getting pretty big because people are trying to go. But like the fiberglass we do is it's fine too. It's all safe. It's not like it used to be. Like it used to be like asbestos and shit. Not the fiberglass, but just in general. Insulation has kind of.
SPEAKER_03How do you is it the same thing? Like you use a hose thing.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Yeah, we put it in a hopper, it's like a big old brick of it, and then it just chops it up and blows it out.
SPEAKER_03I didn't know what to be on, okay. Yeah, I didn't know what fiberglass was. I knew what it was, but I don't think I didn't know what it felt like or the stuff we use isn't that bad.
SPEAKER_04So like bats is the sheet insulation, like the shit you see on walls, that shit sucks. It can get like itchy and make you, you know, miserable. But the stuff we blow in is it's fine. You can roll around in it. No, it's uh it would it would itch, but not bad. Don't roll around in it. But like I don't wear gloves with most of it. And like it doesn't bother me that much. It's fine. It'll like tickle your throat if we're blowing it in because it flies around everywhere, but it settles quick. And then the attic is safe in like two hours to go in there and just do whatever you want and fucking stare at it. Say, wow, that looks like snow. So you're supposed to be wearing PPE and you don't? No, we do. For the most part. Like if we're blowing in, we definitely do, because that shit's flying out of the hose. So we'll wear a respirator. Um, and then if we're installing the bats, we'll wear a respirator usually. But if we're just like going around doing shit in the attic, nah, not really.
SPEAKER_03You should, but I almost want to try to make a gay joke and then but then you say other words, and then I was like, fuck, I can't.
SPEAKER_04What's the gay joke? Go. Let's let's run.
SPEAKER_03Well, I forgot already, because you said the word attic. And you blow.
SPEAKER_04Blow, yeah. I suppose, um I don't know. Let's get there.
SPEAKER_03I lost my, I'm telling you, I just lost it after that. Like, I'll just I look I'll lose my train of thought.
SPEAKER_04If I know anything about gay jokes, it'll come back up. They always do. Kath is showing. Oh, super self-conscious about those. Bree don't look. I wear tall socks to hide my shame.
unknownAll right.
SPEAKER_03Because he works out every day.
SPEAKER_04I don't at all.
SPEAKER_03You know, when I heard that part of the episode where you said it's basically anxiety once you become healthy. It is. I live in fear. That sucks.
SPEAKER_04Does it I hyped it up a little more on the show? It's it's a good thing. I live a good life, but like there is an anxiety to it. No, I get it. I'm also an anxious guy, though. I doubt most people have that. There's just like this, it's just knowing more things. If you're more knowledgeable about it, then you know you're making bad decisions more. That's all it is. Yeah, that's all. It's just literally being like, well, fuck, I shouldn't do that.
SPEAKER_01In this life, the more you know, no matter what it's about, generally it'll cause more anxiety.
SPEAKER_04Exactly. Yeah, you just learn shit and you go, damn, that sucks. That's a bummer. I really want to eat pizza. And I do. But I know it's bad. Yeah. But who cares? Me. That's the problem. I fucking care. I care so much.
SPEAKER_03You need to try that H B one. I stare at it every time now.
SPEAKER_04We almost Do you get the ones with the big ricotta pieces?
SPEAKER_03No. That shit looks good. I've never tried any like uh margarita pizza like that. Okay, what kind of you get? Assuming that's the margarita pizza. I think so, yeah, yeah. We've been we've been getting the the sausage and pepperoni. But we have tried the little ones. Supreme. Yeah. The little tiny ones.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Very cheesy. Amber only likes pepperoni. Like she'll eat other shit, but like if I get anything other than pepperoni, she'll give me like a side eye. It's like, what the fuck, man?
SPEAKER_01The globs of cheese aren't ricotta. It's mozzarella.
SPEAKER_04Oh, it is mozzarella.
SPEAKER_01And I'm the exact opposite of Amber. Um, I prefer no pepperoni. Um, unless it's with other things. I will not eat just a pepperoni pizza.
SPEAKER_04Too greasy.
SPEAKER_01I don't know if it's that or just the taste of pepperoni by itself.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, I get that.
SPEAKER_01I was an all-cheese kid.
SPEAKER_04Really? You were a cheese pizza kid? Yes.
SPEAKER_01My mom also worked for Pizza Hut. Really? So I pretty much like lived at a Pizza Hut for a while.
SPEAKER_04Did you make pizzas as a kid?
SPEAKER_01No. Um, but I did get to go to like the Sunday buffets and it was um pasta and then personalized cheese pizza.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, I forgot Pizza Hut used to have buffets.
SPEAKER_01And my brother used to do the um pineapple and ham, which was a thing way before you know everyone started putting pineapple on pizza.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Do you like pineapple and pizza?
SPEAKER_01Now, yes. Back then I thought he was absolutely insane.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, it's so good. I thought the same thing growing up as a kid. I was like, what is my family eating? And then as an adult, I'm like, wow, I finally get it.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, you find out pineapple fucking rules. Like, oh my god, it's good on literally anything. Yeah, pineapple's great. The fuck were we talking about? Uh what the types of work are types of No, you're talking about being healthy. The anxiety that comes with it.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, after after you talk to us, yeah, yeah, it's just about the fiberglass, yeah. Yeah, it's just you know, who cares? Who cares?
SPEAKER_03Once you uh I care now. I care a little.
SPEAKER_04I care a little bit more. It's good to care, it's just yeah, it is there. It's constantly there. But I'm also, like I said, I'm more neurotic than the next guy, so it's it's definitely a me thing, more so.
SPEAKER_03And your PT.
SPEAKER_04What's up?
SPEAKER_03Personal trainer?
SPEAKER_04Allegedly.
SPEAKER_03Allegedly?
SPEAKER_04Personal trainer's never had a client, which that's fine.
SPEAKER_03We can find anyone to this up to this show. I don't have time. I was doing that before I went back to work. My my my siblings asked me, like, why don't you post it in the neighborhood page?
SPEAKER_04I don't really I really don't have time. When would I do it? No, I know. I mean, I could in like the evenings, I do have time. I'm making excuses, but I don't want to. Now that I'm back at work full time, because when I got the certification, I was not working. I took a break. And I was like, I'll just do that. And then I was gonna open the gym here, but the HOA was like, nah, dog. I was like, all right, fuck it. Oh, LLCs or bullshit. Yeah, it was yeah, it was like you can't. It was something about parking and of all houses too. I was like, bro, I got two fucking giant driveways. Yeah, I got RPGs. Hey, bro, I could I could have the whole neighborhood come work out of my house and not have a problem. But it's all good. I still have the certification and I learned a ton doing it, which was really cool. I learned a lot, and I still use it for the most part. I help people out. Like if people need advice on shit, I'll talk to them for a small fee. No, I'm joking. Um, but yeah, I don't know. I just like for a small fee. Not me. Um, no, I just like helping people out. I thought I was gonna make a career of it, but you know, didn't work out that way yet. So I mean yet.
SPEAKER_03Who knows? Yeah, that's different. That's like me trying to be a real estate agent. Yeah, like I I tried. I'm not a salesman though.
SPEAKER_04I can't I can't fa I can't sell you a house that I I just can't like if you don't believe in the thing, or even if you do enjoy it, you're like, I don't have that personality. I don't have that personality. Oh, okay. I'm not a pushy. So you don't plan on trying that again?
SPEAKER_03No. Okay. It was a waste, it was a failure. That's how you learn, man. I accepted it. That's how you learn. Yeah, it was a big waste of money. Is it a lot of money? That was at least a thousand dollars. Yeah, but a lot of knowledge, a lot of time. Yeah, a lot of writing. You learn some cool shit?
SPEAKER_04I did, but like You learn about houses? I mean Could you point like a Victorian versus a plantation home?
SPEAKER_03Yeah, sick. Yeah, that's good knowledge to have. That, yeah. But like as far as like the whole eminent domain and well, that sounds like history domain. That's what we need to know.
SPEAKER_04Like, I don't know what is it. What does that mean? That's like your land, right? It has something to do with that. That's like your right to your land.
SPEAKER_03That's the sad part. I forgot a lot about this bullshit with all these teachers.
SPEAKER_04That sounds like a weird thing. The eminent domain seems like something I should know as an American. That sounds some like history shit. I think I'm thinking Manifest Destiny. I don't I don't know.
SPEAKER_03It's like I pay rent, I have the eminent domain. No, I think it's like eminent domain is like where I think the the station is. Please tell me you're looking up eminent.

SPEAKER_04Fuck it. Call it the fucking Oh yeah, Brie. What we got? Let's get it.
SPEAKER_01Eminent domain is the power of federal, state, and local governments to seize private property for public use without the owner's consent.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, my grandma got fucked by that. They took some of her, well, forced her to sell some of her property because the highway was expanding. I was about to say, I guess that depends on the where the house is, right? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, fuck the government. I feel that. Eminent domain. Yep. Good shit. Yeah, man. But yeah, it's I don't know.

Have I told you how I handle my shit situation? My dog shit? You've told me, but do the listeners? I don't know. Probably not. I have a box of nitrile gloves in my shed and I throw the right one on. Or I guess they're all left and right. I put one on my right hand and I go around my fucking backyard picking up dog shit with my hand and just throwing it over the fence. There's no neighbors. There's no neighbors. I think Bree's just now finding out about this.

SPEAKER_04I have crazy. There's these dogs shit such different textures, man. It's so weird. That's our shit portion of the show. Tristan literally today was like, I'm surprised you haven't talked about shit yet. Because I talk about shit a lot. Because I'd be shitting, dude. Oh, he's listening though? Yeah, of course, dude. Is he actually listening? Yeah. He's gonna be our first caller. He's gonna call in. It'll be good. I can see that. It's gonna be sick. What uh do you shit in public? You have a fear of shitting in public, you only shit at home?
SPEAKER_03A lot of people do. So it depends on the type of public.
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_03Work doesn't count. So at work doesn't count. Yeah. I will I love using the bathroom at work. I literally never. I have so many buildings I could use. And the buildings are empty.
unknownIt's great.
SPEAKER_03It's so sick.
SPEAKER_04I rarely shit at home. If I'm shitting at home, it's a weird day.
SPEAKER_03But if we're talking about like at an Astros game or like at the Montgomery County Fair or some bullshit like that, or like even at a brewery, I will not take a shit. I've shit at that brewery a handful of times. If I have to, or if I really have to, I will.
SPEAKER_04But for the most part, no. Aside from porta potties, I'll shit literally anywhere. I refuse to shit in a porta-potty though. Yeah, those are I'll shit on the side of a porta potty before I go in a porta potty to shit.
SPEAKER_03Dude, last part porta party we had interactions with was at the it was two years ago now, thinking about it. Like, but holy shit, at the Renfair. Like uh at the campgrounds. Just Centaur shit. So at first it was like, you know, brand new, clean, nothing empty. Yeah. Uh by the next morning, it was completely filled to the top of liquids. And uh I told her, I was like, anytime you go to the restroom, go like take the wipes, like the like the wipes.
SPEAKER_04You have to.
SPEAKER_03But they they act they I think I'm not I don't know why she's doing that. I don't remember. Um I was just pointing out the fact that I think we left a bag inside there on accident. Oh, the bag of wipes. The bag of wipes that people were using the restroom. Yeah. And like the piss and everything was just everything, everywhere.
SPEAKER_04Porta potties are so fucking gross, dude. On job sites, there's always a porta potty that just everyone's been using. I don't know who's dropping piles on a porta potty, but they do it, and it's insane. I have to go piss on a shit, like a random shit. That's so gross, dude. What you got?
SPEAKER_01I would rather hold my bladder and cause an infection than use a porta potty if I have to. For girls, I can't imagine. Absolutely disgusting.
SPEAKER_04Dude.
SPEAKER_01And it especially for girls. Like no, gross. And I'm sorry. The the reason that I was doing that is um it ended up the the wipes when we were when I used the portajohn, it actually ended up falling.
SPEAKER_04Into the hole?
SPEAKER_01Yes. And I was like, are you freaking kidding me? Did you reach in and get him? Uh no.
SPEAKER_04Good call.

SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03I heard it gets crazy. And then even just walk around looking at the people's, like they literally turn their camp area into like a club.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, yeah. I bet you can find any drug on the planet at the rent fair.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, and like there's a whole uh a bonfire area, like where the food tricks are. Yeah. Like the hole where everybody can meet.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.

SPEAKER_03We didn't go. We didn't go either. We didn't, we didn't we talked about sleeping. Well, like once we did it the first time, the the the campaign, we're like, oh, we're gonna do it every year. Yeah. And then the next year happened, we're like, uh I don't think we're not this year.
SPEAKER_04Making plans sucks. Shit always comes back up and you go, wow, I don't want to do that now. What the fuck was I thinking? A year ago? Why would I make plans for this year? Especially a year ago. That's tough. Yeah, it's so long. Yeah. But pierogies at the Renfair. So good. That's white culture. It's like it's like a white dumpling. I think it's German or Polish. I think it's Polish. Just white people food. It literally looks like a pot sticker.
SPEAKER_03Pierogies. I don't know where I've read that. I've heard that. Probably at the Renfair. They're popping there. No, but it's like at a store or a a somewhere around here. Yeah, there's probably somewhere that sells them.
