Turkey Trot Tor returns!! ၏ စာသားမှတ်တမ်းအပြည့်အစုံ

00:03:14.750 and I never, even my feet are fine. I mean, 76 00:03:14.789 --> 00:03:17.610 I got the insoles and all that Dr. Scholl shit, but. 77 00:03:17.949 --> 00:03:20.310 I find that some of my best golf rounds are 78 00:03:20.349 --> 00:03:23.789 when I'm slightly injured or immobilized because there's no. 79 00:03:23.710 --> 00:03:26.449 Grip and rip. Right. Yeah, and you don't think about 80 00:03:26.490 --> 00:03:26.930 it as much. 81 00:03:27.270 --> 00:03:29.530 Use the technology. You're spending so much money on those clubs. 82 00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:30.810 You just got to use them. 83 00:03:31.580 --> 00:03:32.780 You know, we were just talking in the show. I 84 00:03:32.819 --> 00:03:34.560 was kind of fed up with this year and had 85 00:03:34.580 --> 00:03:36.879 a good round my last round and kind of, all right, 86 00:03:36.900 --> 00:03:37.419 I'll be back. 87 00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.300 But honestly, I really think I need at least a 88 00:03:40.340 --> 00:03:41.319 new driver because. 89 00:03:43.229 --> 00:03:46.050 They die after a while. Like, they just lose their oomph. 90 00:03:46.229 --> 00:03:49.030 And I got this driver got to be 10 years ago. 91 00:03:49.830 --> 00:03:52.370 And it just sounds different when I hit it now. Like, 92 00:03:52.409 --> 00:03:55.120 if I crank one, it's going 250. I used to 93 00:03:55.129 --> 00:03:57.900 be able to hit 3, 310. Not all the time. 94 00:03:58.379 --> 00:04:00.780 But if I really connected, it was going 300 yards. 95 00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:03.080 Now it's like I pound it. I mean, I'm not 96 00:04:03.939 --> 00:04:05.520 a couple years older, but you know what I mean? 97 00:04:05.580 --> 00:04:07.080 It's not that much of a difference. It's not that 98 00:04:07.099 --> 00:04:09.000 much of a difference. And that's with the new driver? Yeah. 99 00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:12.419 No, no, no. I'm saying I think I'm going to 100 00:04:12.460 --> 00:04:13.060 get a new driver. 101 00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:15.280 Oh, got it. Probably like a last year's model and 102 00:04:15.310 --> 00:04:17.949 save like $ 300. But I want a brand new one 103 00:04:17.990 --> 00:04:21.629 this year to start. And I don't know. It's just weird. 104 00:04:21.810 --> 00:04:23.649 I just feel like my clubs, I don't know if 105 00:04:23.730 --> 00:04:25.089 I've just had them too long. 106 00:04:25.810 --> 00:04:28.250 It's a good excuse, though, right? It's a great excuse. 107 00:04:28.269 --> 00:04:30.389 I'm not hitting it like I used to. 108 00:04:30.750 --> 00:04:33.839 I actually bought irons when I was the caddy master 109 00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:36.500 at a country club in Minnesota back in high school. 110 00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:39.939 And I've been using those my entire life up until... 111 00:04:40.740 --> 00:04:43.819 And the last tournament, which was Tuesday of last week, 112 00:04:44.699 --> 00:04:47.399 where my buddy from the same country club in Minnesota 113 00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:50.019 went

and bought me new irons because it was embarrassing 114 00:04:50.060 --> 00:04:52.439 that I was still using 20-something-year-old irons. 115 00:04:52.459 --> 00:04:55.300 And he goes, here, take them. I could probably still 116 00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:57.259 use the irons. They don't go bad. They don't go bad. 117 00:04:57.279 --> 00:04:59.279 They're not hollow. I mean, these drivers are hollow. 118 00:04:59.300 --> 00:05:01.259 The new ones are really nice. 119 00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:04.459 I know. So my irons are actually older than my drivers, 120 00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:07.660 and my irons are probably 13 years old. But it's 121 00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:08.279 an investment. 122 00:05:08.500 --> 00:05:10.870 You can look at the club face and be like, oh, 123 00:05:10.899 --> 00:05:12.470 I hit that off the toe. Oh, I hit that 124 00:05:12.509 --> 00:05:15.470 off the heel. But it still goes exactly where I 125 00:05:15.509 --> 00:05:18.589 want because of the technology. I'm telling you. It's incredible. 126 00:05:19.029 --> 00:05:20.189 All right. You just convinced me. 127 00:05:20.310 --> 00:05:25.430 They're not blades. They're not player irons. They're game improvement irons. 128 00:05:25.589 --> 00:05:26.310 I have no shame. 129 00:05:26.870 --> 00:05:30.579 I remember my buddy used to work for Callaway. This 130 00:05:30.620 --> 00:05:31.420 guy's name is Josh. 131 00:05:31.459 --> 00:05:33.759 He was from Milford. He since retired and moved to Florida. 132 00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:36.660 But he was a rep for them. When I was 133 00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:39.259 in the market to buy Callaways, actually, I was in 134 00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:40.560 the market to buy new clubs. And me and my 135 00:05:40.579 --> 00:05:43.560 friends were out in Hawaii. And we rented clubs, whatever 136 00:05:43.620 --> 00:05:46.120 course we were at in Hawaii. That's dangerous. And they 137 00:05:46.170 --> 00:05:50.149 gave me Diablos, which were Callaways. And I hit the 138 00:05:50.189 --> 00:05:51.689 irons really well. So, of course, I come home. 139 00:05:51.930 --> 00:05:54.170 And he literally said to me, he goes, I've golfed 140 00:05:54.209 --> 00:05:54.449 with you. 141 00:05:54.949 --> 00:05:59.189 Okay? I'm telling you, you probably just liked them that day. 142 00:05:59.980 --> 00:06:03.079 He goes, get the OSs. You can't miss with the OSs. 143 00:06:03.139 --> 00:06:05.110 And I'm like, what are those? Oversized. 144 00:06:05.250 --> 00:06:08.689 He goes, they're not legitimate for fucking PGA Tour. But 145 00:06:08.790 --> 00:06:09.420 I'll get you a set. 146 00:06:09.430 --> 00:06:11.029 But we're not PGA Tour. He goes, I'll get you 147 00:06:11.050 --> 00:06:13.410 a set of OSs. You will never miss the ball. 148 00:06:13.910 --> 00:06:15.490 You're not going to hit it straight every time. But 149 00:06:16.250 --> 00:06:18.029 you're also not going to miss the ball. I was 150 00:06:18.050 --> 00:06:21.920 too fucking stubborn. And I got the Diablos. Actually, I 151 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.800 gave those to Braden. Braden has those now. So I 152 00:06:24.819 --> 00:06:26.980 take him golf, and he's got them. And then I 153 00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:29.810 end up buying an OS. What do I got? Top 154 00:06:29.829 --> 00:06:32.370 flights or something? I don't know. But I think it's time. 155 00:06:32.389 --> 00:06:33.750 It's time. It's time, classy. 156 00:06:34.470 --> 00:06:35.810 I don't know if it was a friend or a 157 00:06:35.829 --> 00:06:38.540 golfer or something on TV, but someone said the difference 158 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:42.490 between an average amateur and a pro. Isn't that you 159 00:06:42.509 --> 00:06:45.529 can hit a 310 down the middle or that you're 160 00:06:45.629 --> 00:06:47.769 sitting pretty. It's that second shot. 161 00:06:47.930 --> 00:06:48.129 Yeah. 162 00:06:48.370 --> 00:06:50.370 A pro is always going to hit it on the green. 163 00:06:50.410 --> 00:06:50.569 Yeah. 164 00:06:50.910 --> 00:06:54.069 Whereas you or I or 90% of the other guys, 165 00:06:54.370 --> 00:06:56.310 we can easily duff that, shank that. 166 00:06:56.360 --> 00:07:00.019 Yeah. That's why long drive competitions, you don't see those 167 00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:04.899 guys playing on tour. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. And the putting 168 00:07:04.939 --> 00:07:07.819 and everything else that goes into it. Like they know exactly, 169 00:07:08.579 --> 00:07:10.290 you know. I have a range in my head of 170 00:07:10.329 --> 00:07:13.889 about 15 yards, right? From my sand wedge to my 171 00:07:13.930 --> 00:07:15.629 pitching wedge, my 9-iron all the way down, I go 172 00:07:15.670 --> 00:07:19.170 about 15-yard increments. Until I get to about my 6-iron, 173 00:07:19.209 --> 00:07:21.730 I'm like, I can't hit a 5-iron 170. So now 174 00:07:21.750 --> 00:07:25.110 I'm going to the rescues and all that. But there's 175 00:07:25.149 --> 00:07:28.670 just some shots. I mean, you've been to golf tournaments before, 176 00:07:28.709 --> 00:07:31.389 like PGA tournaments. Yeah. Have you seen these guys play? 177 00:07:31.670 --> 00:07:33.370 Hazeltine, Minnesota, all the time. 178 00:07:33.670 --> 00:07:35.790 I used to go to TPC Sawgrass in Florida. 179 00:07:37.490 --> 00:07:40.649 We go up to the Hartford one. It's just amazing 180 00:07:40.670 --> 00:07:44.050 to see how these guys fucking just... It's a different caliber. 181 00:07:44.110 --> 00:07:46.990 Yeah, I was at a TPC... What's the first? The 182 00:07:47.029 --> 00:07:49.750 Waste Management Tour in Phoenix. Yeah. The drunk one. 183 00:07:49.850 --> 00:07:52.949 The one where everyone's throwing beers constantly. Don't make your 184 00:07:52.990 --> 00:07:54.250 putt on whatever green that is. 185 00:07:54.269 --> 00:07:56.069 Because you're going to be soaked. Me and my buddy 186 00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:58.519 flew out there, and we had a friend that was... 187 00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:00.639 He worked at Yale, and he was a barback

on 188 00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:02.959 the 16th. It's the 16th, right? It's a par three. 189 00:08:03.259 --> 00:08:06.199 I don't know. They all surround it. And he was 190 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:07.620 a barback, and he got us in, and we were 191 00:08:07.660 --> 00:08:09.560 on the top level. And we ended up meeting people... 192 00:08:09.910 --> 00:08:12.350 It's crazy from New Haven mass mutual. And they've been, 193 00:08:12.370 --> 00:08:15.329 they were at Stonebridge a week prior. We are, you know, 194 00:08:15.410 --> 00:08:17.230 we never know who you're going to run into. World's 195 00:08:17.269 --> 00:08:17.810 not that big. 196 00:08:17.829 --> 00:08:22.949 So we took a walk and we were walking back. 197 00:08:22.990 --> 00:08:26.689 I think 15, it was like 14 green, 15 T. 198 00:08:26.730 --> 00:08:30.420 We kind of walked up and, uh, the heck's the 199 00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:32.580 guy's name. He's the one, he's like the Indian guy 200 00:08:32.620 --> 00:08:36.679 with like a fucking million kids. Sing. No, no, no. 201 00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:42.370 Uh, not that old. Uh, Anyway, he hits his ball. 202 00:08:42.659 --> 00:08:46.049 Shit, I'm old. Yeah. He hits his ball. Singh's old. 203 00:08:46.090 --> 00:08:48.629 He's got to be 60. He hits his ball, and 204 00:08:48.649 --> 00:08:52.370 it lands. We're standing right there. It lands on a 205 00:08:52.389 --> 00:08:55.539 sprinkler head in the rough. So he walks up to 206 00:08:55.580 --> 00:08:58.480 the ball, and the guy comes over, the rules guy, 207 00:08:58.500 --> 00:08:59.639 and says, you get a free drop. 208 00:08:59.779 --> 00:09:02.659 He goes, no, I like this lie. And we're all 209 00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:04.860 standing there like, what? He was like 230 out. 210 00:09:06.789 --> 00:09:07.080 It's on a tee. 211 00:09:07.190 --> 00:09:09.529 He smoked it off the fucking sprinkler. 212 00:09:09.610 --> 00:09:11.860 It was on a tee. Like 10 feet from the pin. 213 00:09:11.889 --> 00:09:13.179 Like everyone was going crazy. 214 00:09:13.220 --> 00:09:15.240 Like these guys are just, they used to have that 215 00:09:15.340 --> 00:09:16.039 ad campaign. 216 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:16.940 Like these guys are good. 217 00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:18.019 They really are. 218 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:21.419 I mean, it's, it's, it's up. And they're like, you 219 00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:23.720 see these guys hit it so fucking hard and far. 220 00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:26.909 And they're like, they probably can't betch 170. 221 00:09:26.909 --> 00:09:29.279 No, but it's a different muscle. It's different. 222 00:09:29.340 --> 00:09:30.320 It's torque. 223 00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:31.740 The taller guys can hit it farther. 224 00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:35.039 And it's tempo, and it's smooth, and more than anything, 225 00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:35.899 it's consistency. 226 00:09:35.980 --> 00:09:37.559 And they have the best equipment, too. 227 00:09:37.620 --> 00:09:39.860 The difference of hitting on

their clubs, the difference of 228 00:09:39.899 --> 00:09:43.320 hitting the ball by a couple pins, right or left 229 00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:44.980 or up or down, means the ball is going to 230 00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:45.940 do something completely different. 231 00:09:45.980 --> 00:09:46.120 Right. 232 00:09:46.419 --> 00:09:48.970 Whereas, as I was saying earlier, I bought clubs specifically 233 00:09:49.019 --> 00:09:50.580 so that I can hit it on the toe. I 234 00:09:50.580 --> 00:09:51.450 can hit it on the heel. 235 00:09:51.450 --> 00:09:53.509 It's still gonna work and it's gonna correct itself and 236 00:09:53.610 --> 00:09:56.710 go where i want generally in the same direction. 237 00:09:56.419 --> 00:09:58.820 You gotta tell you gotta email me or text me 238 00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:00.879 what kind of clubs you have it is the most 239 00:10:00.980 --> 00:10:04.679 forgiving i had what brand is it it's ping g440s 240 00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:08.350 ping g440s they are great you can go higher and 241 00:10:08.379 --> 00:10:11.250 you can get like a 740 or something like that 242 00:10:11.389 --> 00:10:13.879 oh yeah but they just look They just look like 243 00:10:13.940 --> 00:10:15.100 everything's a hybrid iron. 244 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:18.779 Oh, okay. Mine has a little bubble in the back? Yeah. Okay. 245 00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:19.899 That's the sevens. Yes. 246 00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:22.139 So the fours is like one step down from the 247 00:10:22.179 --> 00:10:23.860 most extreme of helping. 248 00:10:23.879 --> 00:10:25.820 Got you. And I love it. And it's great. 249 00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:29.450 I played exactly one scramble so far with these. And 250 00:10:29.590 --> 00:10:31.850 it was kind of comical for me. I think my 251 00:10:31.950 --> 00:10:35.009 team was pretty annoyed because almost every shot I said, hey, guys, 252 00:10:35.029 --> 00:10:36.509 this is the first time I've ever swung this club. 253 00:10:36.870 --> 00:10:40.230 And it went pretty well. 254 00:10:40.289 --> 00:10:42.509 There were a couple shots where I was 15, 20 255 00:10:42.509 --> 00:10:45.120 yards too long. But that's just because of the technology. 256 00:10:45.299 --> 00:10:47.600 That's where the driving range comes in. And you figure 257 00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:50.019 out your distances. But you figure it out. I was 258 00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:53.539 a caddy for 10 plus years. I can club myself 259 00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:54.399 after a few swings. 260 00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:57.700 Yeah, yeah. But, yeah, pretty excited. So you know, too, 261 00:10:57.720 --> 00:10:59.960 like when you hit a shot and you're like, you 262 00:10:59.980 --> 00:11:01.879 just hit it so pure and you're like, fuck, this 263 00:11:01.899 --> 00:11:04.000 is going way over. Yeah. Oh, I wasn't supposed to 264 00:11:04.019 --> 00:11:05.600 hit it that good. Yeah. 265 00:11:05.779 --> 00:11:07.980 And then sometimes it's funny because it'll bite me in 266 00:11:08.019 --> 00:11:09.980 the ass. On my old clubs, I'd be like, oh. 267 00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:12.659 I bladed the shit out of that. And everyone's sitting 268 00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:14.710 there like, looks pretty good to us. Yeah. And like. 269 00:11:15.149 --> 00:11:17.009 It doesn't go as far as I think it's going to. 270 00:11:17.330 --> 00:11:19.090 Number one, I'm older. Number two, the clubs are old 271 00:11:19.169 --> 00:11:21.389 as shit. Like all this stuff. So it ends up 272 00:11:21.409 --> 00:11:22.750 right next to the cup. And I was like, I 273 00:11:22.769 --> 00:11:25.049 probably should have just kept my mouth shut. Yeah. Sorry, guys. 274 00:11:25.309 --> 00:11:27.889 I had a friend who was a pro at Grassy 275 00:11:27.909 --> 00:11:32.000 Hill years ago, 20-something years ago. And he went out 276 00:11:32.059 --> 00:11:35.200 with us one day. It's kind of like a free lesson, 277 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:36.840 but let us go out. Yeah. 278 00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:38.519 And it was him, his wife, me. 279 00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:39.730 He's giving you tips along the way. 280 00:11:39.740 --> 00:11:40.519 He's giving us tips along the way. 281 00:11:40.539 --> 00:11:42.799 I love that. We're on that really long par five 282 00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:47.950 coming back towards the street. 16, I think it is. 283 00:11:48.169 --> 00:11:50.659 I felt I duffed a drive, but I ended up 284 00:11:50.700 --> 00:11:52.330 hitting it like 230, 240. 285 00:11:52.299 --> 00:11:53.279 With the creek in the middle. 286 00:11:53.460 --> 00:11:53.659 Yeah. 287 00:11:53.820 --> 00:11:55.240 Yeah, at the end. 288 00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:57.269 Yeah, 16. And he turns to me and he goes, 289 00:11:57.549 --> 00:12:00.830 you know you're getting good when you fucking hit one 290 00:12:00.830 --> 00:12:02.350 240 and you're mad at yourself. 291 00:12:03.100 --> 00:12:05.340 Now, meanwhile, this guy steps up and hits it fucking. 292 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:08.299 40 yards past me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I go, yeah, no. 293 00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:10.379 It's just, you know when you hit it. You know 294 00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:11.759 when you feel like you hit it good. 295 00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:13.720 It's pure. Yeah, and I don't even, sometimes I don't 296 00:12:13.740 --> 00:12:14.980 even care where it goes. I'm just like, I'm just 297 00:12:15.019 --> 00:12:16.580 glad I made really good contact with it. But that's 298 00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.779 true of so many sports. I used to get that 299 00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:21.179 in baseball, you know, 25 years ago. Right. 300 00:12:22.700 --> 00:12:26.000 Golf, I mean, anytime there's metal hitting an object and 301 00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:29.580 you hit it pure, it's such a sensation of euphoria 302 00:12:29.759 --> 00:12:32.750 and It's so great. It's the same thing when you 303 00:12:32.769 --> 00:12:34.909 hit a home run in baseball. We were talking about baseball. 304 00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:38.220 You see these guys hit the

ball, and they have 305 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:42.240 wood bats, or were younger using metal bats. You hit it, 306 00:12:42.419 --> 00:12:44.240 it's barely past the pitcher, and they're already doing the 307 00:12:44.259 --> 00:12:45.259 bat toss because they know. 308 00:12:45.659 --> 00:12:49.110 They felt it, and it's just such a great feeling. 309 00:12:49.289 --> 00:12:52.289 Funny, you had that. I was a caddy master at 310 00:12:52.330 --> 00:12:55.250 this course in Minnesota, and the pro was a guy 311 00:12:55.269 --> 00:12:57.850 named Dick Walters, and he was so embarrassed with how 312 00:12:57.909 --> 00:13:01.690 bad I was at golf. That between when the morning 313 00:13:02.009 --> 00:13:03.600 crews would all go out and all the caddies were 314 00:13:03.620 --> 00:13:05.080 out and the golfers and there's like an hour, an 315 00:13:05.100 --> 00:13:06.360 hour and a half dead time. 316 00:13:06.659 --> 00:13:06.860 Yeah. 317 00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:08.519 And when they start coming back and new people could 318 00:13:08.539 --> 00:13:10.379 go out because the course is full, we'd go up 319 00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:11.759 on the range and we'd just hit. And we'd grab 320 00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:13.639 clubs off the demo rack and hit. And he'd come 321 00:13:13.700 --> 00:13:15.840 up and he would tweak and move and twist and bend. 322 00:13:15.899 --> 00:13:17.950 And I was down in single digits in high school 323 00:13:18.019 --> 00:13:18.799 and early college. 324 00:13:18.850 --> 00:13:22.210 Oh, that's awesome. Then you stop playing. Yeah. 325 00:13:22.710 --> 00:13:24.809 I'm a 15 now because I had a great round. 326 00:13:24.889 --> 00:13:26.309 Yeah. I'm a 25. I should be an 18, 19. Yeah. 327 00:13:30.009 --> 00:13:31.509 were you like a four caddy or you were a 328 00:13:31.529 --> 00:13:34.730 personal caddy uh i've done both four caddy was very 329 00:13:34.769 --> 00:13:37.269 rare so at this course it was i. 330 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:39.139 Was the caddy master at the end of the game 331 00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:41.519 okay but i started out as a measly little b 332 00:13:41.539 --> 00:13:43.500 caddy then you get a caddy then an honor caddy 333 00:13:43.980 --> 00:13:45.960 and you carry one bag or you carry two bags 334 00:13:46.100 --> 00:13:49.139 and you're carrying the bags it's old school yeah and 335 00:13:49.259 --> 00:13:51.759 you put the bag down and you say sir it's 336 00:13:52.110 --> 00:13:54.610 you know so many yards i'd recommend you use your 337 00:13:54.629 --> 00:13:57.460 seven iron so i need my eight iron like Sir, 338 00:13:57.500 --> 00:13:59.360 I've seen you play four holes. You should really use 339 00:13:59.399 --> 00:13:59.980 your seven iron. 340 00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:01.919 He hits the eight iron. 341 00:14:01.940 --> 00:14:03.779 He's 10 yards short. He's like, okay, I'll listen to 342 00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:07.669 you next time. It's funny what people think. If you 343 00:14:07.710 --> 00:14:10.230 know the course, I can walk up to a putt 344 00:14:10.470 --> 00:14:13.730 on holes at that course and say, hey, you need 345 00:14:13.750 --> 00:14:16.470 to go three inches right and four inches past it 346 00:14:16.509 --> 00:14:19.250 or 18 inches past it. On 18, it was this 347 00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:22.840 crazy bowl. You'd have to aim 12 feet right and 348 00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:24.730 16 feet past it And it. 349 00:14:24.730 --> 00:14:26.350 Would still roll down. Right. 350 00:14:26.370 --> 00:14:28.370 It was crazy. But you know that after you walk 351 00:14:28.389 --> 00:14:29.409 the course 10,000 times. 352 00:14:29.470 --> 00:14:31.950 Yeah. There's a couple courses around here. I know exactly 353 00:14:31.970 --> 00:14:33.379 where to hit it. Doesn't mean I hit it there, 354 00:14:33.429 --> 00:14:35.419 but I know where I want to go. But these 355 00:14:35.460 --> 00:14:37.519 guys are playing two, three times a week. I was 356 00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:40.519 with one last golf story. We'll get back to Turkey. Oh, yeah. 357 00:14:40.620 --> 00:14:44.220 I'm in. It's called Carnegie Abbey. It's in Newport, Rhode Island. 358 00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:47.210 And we had a trip going out there for the 359 00:14:47.610 --> 00:14:52.990 United States. Well, it was a trip for a liquor distributor. 360 00:14:53.490 --> 00:14:55.629 And they invited me and another kid from Stonebridge. And 361 00:14:55.669 --> 00:14:57.450 we played golf at this place. It was beautiful. The 362 00:14:57.529 --> 00:15:01.029 last hole was like Pebble Beach's hole. Waves crashing on 363 00:15:01.049 --> 00:15:03.049 the water. It just went the other way instead of 364 00:15:03.090 --> 00:15:05.879 this way. Anyway, we're at some random hole. 365 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:08.240 We had a four caddy. So he had... Those are 366 00:15:08.259 --> 00:15:08.620 the best. 367 00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:09.360 He had two bags. 368 00:15:09.460 --> 00:15:11.720 One on his shoulder and then the other one, whatever. 369 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:17.139 We're on the green. And we're about to putt. And 370 00:15:17.179 --> 00:15:20.490 I just hear this humming sound. All of a sudden, 371 00:15:20.529 --> 00:15:23.149 the caddy goes, Get down! Get down! 372 00:15:23.740 --> 00:15:24.139 We're like, what? 373 00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:25.840 He's like, get down. 374 00:15:26.659 --> 00:15:27.960 So we just fucking got down. 375 00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:31.669 On the green. On the green. A fucking black cloud 376 00:15:31.710 --> 00:15:35.049 of bees flew over our head. Biggest swarm of bees 377 00:15:35.070 --> 00:15:37.330 I've ever seen in my life. And he's like, you 378 00:15:37.350 --> 00:15:37.730 guys good? 379 00:15:37.750 --> 00:15:40.570 And this is a good course? This is Carnegie Abbey. 380 00:15:40.610 --> 00:15:42.269 It's probably fucking $ 500 a play if. 381 00:15:42.250 --> 00:15:42.889 It's not private. 382 00:15:43.429 --> 00:15:45.289 So fucking, boom. 383

00:15:45.710 --> 00:15:46.269 We get up. 384 00:15:47.110 --> 00:15:48.889 We're like, what the fuck was that? He's like, oh, 385 00:15:48.909 --> 00:15:50.429 that's just bees. It happens a lot. 386 00:15:50.929 --> 00:15:53.049 But you guys can't be standing when they come by. 387 00:15:53.149 --> 00:15:55.240 I'm like, that's, you know, you go to Florida, they 388 00:15:55.279 --> 00:15:56.700 like watch out for the alligator, you know. 389 00:15:56.720 --> 00:15:58.980 Like here we're watching out for fucking, I mean, it's like, 390 00:15:59.259 --> 00:16:01.389 it's like it got dark out. That's how big the 391 00:16:01.429 --> 00:16:02.610 swarm was. I couldn't believe it. 392 00:16:03.450 --> 00:16:05.610 I mean, way before fucking cell phone videos and shit. 393 00:16:05.629 --> 00:16:07.629 We just went down and told the story that we 394 00:16:07.649 --> 00:16:08.179 survived it. 395 00:16:08.190 --> 00:16:09.009 That's awful. 396 00:16:09.070 --> 00:16:09.590 That's awful. 397 00:16:09.690 --> 00:16:11.070 And I'm sure when it happened, it. 398 00:16:11.070 --> 00:16:14.269 Was like 12 bees. And now it's the locust. I'm 399 00:16:14.309 --> 00:16:14.769 telling you. 400 00:16:14.789 --> 00:16:15.769 From biblical times. 401 00:16:15.909 --> 00:16:18.500 I'm telling you. I'm going to Google it later and 402 00:16:18.529 --> 00:16:19.389 just be like, it's a problem. 403 00:16:19.409 --> 00:16:20.000 You should have. 404 00:16:19.929 --> 00:16:22.500 Seen that walleye I caught 25 years ago. 405 00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:27.600 We played well, too, that day. That hole, so the 18th, 406 00:16:27.620 --> 00:16:30.379 that's like Pebble Beach, but goes the other way. Yeah. 407 00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:32.620 Best shot of the day I had there. 408 00:16:33.289 --> 00:16:35.750 I usually slice everything, so I'm like, I'm going in 409 00:16:35.769 --> 00:16:37.429 the fucking water. I'm just going to slice it right 410 00:16:37.450 --> 00:16:37.950 into the water. 411 00:16:37.970 --> 00:16:38.669 Get a little drop. 412 00:16:38.970 --> 00:16:41.870 I actually fucking drew it back, hit it about 270, 413 00:16:41.870 --> 00:16:43.269 landed right in the middle of the fairway. We used 414 00:16:43.320 --> 00:16:45.740 our drive. I'm like, all right, I'm done. Nice. I'm done. 415 00:16:45.779 --> 00:16:45.990 Let's go. 416 00:16:46.000 --> 00:16:48.240 Let's go drink. Yeah. Where's the 19? We were bar 417 00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:50.639 hopping in Newport all night. Had a good time. That's fun. 418 00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:52.440 We were there for the U.S. Women's Open was there. 419 00:16:52.860 --> 00:16:54.340 If I could Google, I'll tell you what year it was. 420 00:16:55.620 --> 00:16:58.289 We only went that Wednesday for the practice round. These 421 00:16:58.350 --> 00:17:00.629 girls are just as... I mean, we're talking about men before. 422 00:17:01.070 --> 00:17:02.350 These girls are unbelievable. Dude. 423 00:17:02.730 --> 00:17:08.240 Texas, like, it's nuts how good they are. It's, again, 424 00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:12.140 like we were saying earlier before we started here, some 425 00:17:12.180 --> 00:17:14.539 of my best rounds are when I'm mildly injured. 426 00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:14.980 Yeah. 427 00:17:15.220 --> 00:17:17.220 Because I'm not trying to swing as hard as I can. 428 00:17:17.259 --> 00:17:18.980 I'm not swinging out of my shoes. I'm. 429 00:17:19.420 --> 00:17:21.339 Actually focus on the mechanics. And if you hit the 430 00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:23.690 right part of that technology, that ball's. 431 00:17:23.509 --> 00:17:26.890 Going to go a mile. But you never take that 432 00:17:26.950 --> 00:17:29.490 with you when you're not injured. No, because I can 433 00:17:29.509 --> 00:17:32.890 swing harder. Come on, I'm a man. I'm a man. 434 00:17:32.970 --> 00:17:36.869 Aren't you a man? Speaking of sports, we've got Turkey 435 00:17:36.910 --> 00:17:37.910 Trot coming up on. 436 00:17:37.990 --> 00:17:39.170 What is the date this year? 437 00:17:39.339 --> 00:17:42.380 It's Thanksgiving. I want to say 26th, but don't quote 438 00:17:42.420 --> 00:17:44.059 me on that. I think you're right around there. 439 00:17:44.119 --> 00:17:45.759 Everyone knows what Thanksgiving is. 440 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:49.619 It's the 26th. It's the 26th. Yeah. So it's a 441 00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:50.400 day earlier. 442 00:17:50.440 --> 00:17:52.880 That was the 22 years ago, 27th last year, 26 443 00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:56.549 this year. So the quick, quick story in case someone 444 00:17:56.569 --> 00:17:59.849 doesn't know. Let me give the story. I'm talking too 445 00:17:59.869 --> 00:18:00.329 much anyway. 446 00:18:00.430 --> 00:18:01.069 No, I moved out. 447 00:18:01.009 --> 00:18:04.549 Here in 2020 and I had previously done a turkey 448 00:18:04.589 --> 00:18:10.089 trot in San Jose, California for the previous 12 years. 449 00:18:10.829 --> 00:18:15.930 And they have this, what is it? It's the Applied 450 00:18:15.970 --> 00:18:19.400 Materials Turkey Trot. And it's claimed to be the world's largest. 451 00:18:19.940 --> 00:18:22.220 And they have something like 40 or 60,000 people depending 452 00:18:22.259 --> 00:18:22.980 on the year each year. 453 00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:23.720 So it's unreal. 454 00:18:24.039 --> 00:18:26.299 And it's great. And they raise millions and millions of dollars. 455 00:18:26.660 --> 00:18:28.009 And I came out here and there was nothing. So 456 00:18:28.029 --> 00:18:30.890 I said, oh, I'll peer pressure some neighbors. I'll bring 457 00:18:31.609 --> 00:18:32.029 free beer. 458 00:18:32.049 --> 00:18:32.670 I'll go to the store. 459 00:18:32.710 --> 00:18:33.329 I'll buy some beer. 460 00:18:33.730 --> 00:18:36.269 Everyone gets a beer. We chug a beer. We run a. 461 00:18:36.289 --> 00:18:39.230 Lap around the beautiful Gulf Beach lap right there, which 462 00:18:39.289 --> 00:18:42.930 is just gorgeous and flat. And then we'll chug another 463

00:18:42.950 --> 00:18:46.009 beer and we'll go do Thanksgiving because it's my first 464 00:18:46.049 --> 00:18:48.230 year in town. I don't know what happens. And I 465 00:18:48.250 --> 00:18:50.740 thought maybe 50 people. We ended up, I just pulled 466 00:18:50.759 --> 00:18:53.160 it up right here. We ended up with 607 people. 467 00:18:53.500 --> 00:18:53.720 Wow. 468 00:18:53.940 --> 00:18:55.720 The first year. It escalated quickly. 469 00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:58.599 Oh, yeah. I know you're way over that now. Yeah, yeah. 470 00:18:58.839 --> 00:19:01.359 And then we raised $ 8, 000. 471 00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:03.140 And that year, all the money went to the local 472 00:19:03.180 --> 00:19:06.730 public schools. Then I realized this was a thing and 473 00:19:06.789 --> 00:19:07.509 we got 850 in 2022, over 1400 in 2023, over 474 00:19:07.509 --> 00:19:08.490 1800 in 2024, over 1900 in 2025. And right now, 475 00:19:08.529 --> 00:19:24.259 because it changes constantly, it's crazy. We're, what, a month 476 00:19:24.299 --> 00:19:27.160 out or something? We're 961 people are already registered. 477 00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.000 It's unreal. You're three weeks from tomorrow. Yeah. 478 00:19:30.259 --> 00:19:33.289 And normally, I get about 75% of my people in 479 00:19:33.309 --> 00:19:33.769 the last week. 480 00:19:33.990 --> 00:19:34.210 Right. 481 00:19:34.269 --> 00:19:36.349 Because everyone's saying, oh, what's the weather going to be like? 482 00:19:36.390 --> 00:19:38.950 I'm not sure. Oh, I forgot. It's not expensive. It's 483 00:19:38.970 --> 00:19:42.009 just the nature of people. I don't know. It's $ 20. 484 00:19:41.730 --> 00:19:43.150 It's $ 20. If you're a kid, it's cheaper. 485 00:19:43.190 --> 00:19:43.769 And free beer. 486 00:19:44.470 --> 00:19:44.829 Free beer. 487 00:19:44.869 --> 00:19:45.609 Free laser tag. 488 00:19:45.869 --> 00:19:46.490 Free laser tag. 489 00:19:46.509 --> 00:19:48.410 Laser tag on the go. Gets a huge shout out. 490 00:19:48.690 --> 00:19:51.359 He heard about it once. and he showed up. And 491 00:19:51.619 --> 00:19:53.000 I said, I'll pay you. I'll do whatever. I was 492 00:19:53.019 --> 00:19:54.799 going to pay him out of my pocket. And after 493 00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:56.200 the event, I was like, hey, you never sent me 494 00:19:56.220 --> 00:19:56.660 the invoice. 495 00:19:56.680 --> 00:19:57.339 He goes, no, Tor. 496 00:19:57.400 --> 00:19:58.880 I'm doing this for free every year. 497 00:19:59.019 --> 00:20:01.750 Just count us in. This is awesome. Yeah. 498 00:20:02.250 --> 00:20:04.970 And the robotics club shows up, so they have little 499 00:20:05.009 --> 00:20:07.460 robots and teach people about that. The fencing club shows up, 500 00:20:07.769 --> 00:20:08.849 so teach people about fencing. 501 00:20:08.869 --> 00:20:10.230 Fencing, yeah. 502 00:20:10.329 --> 00:20:14.150 Yeah, it's all about just nonprofits and community involvement. Yeah, 503 00:20:14.190 --> 00:20:15.569 they were there. We talked about that. My mother was 504 00:20:15.609 --> 00:20:16.470 a fencer in college. 505 00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:17.359 It's crazy. 506 00:20:17.380 --> 00:20:21.180 Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the different aspects of Milford that 507 00:20:21.220 --> 00:20:24.099 come in, and we were talking about two years ago 508 00:20:24.140 --> 00:20:24.859 the Mudfest. 509 00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:25.420 Yeah. 510 00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:28.599 That's a great example of what Milford is because we 511 00:20:28.640 --> 00:20:29.359 needed more tents. 512 00:20:29.380 --> 00:20:29.539 Yeah. 513 00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:32.160 People, random people showed up with their 10 by 10s 514 00:20:32.180 --> 00:20:34.029 with whatever they had and just put up tents. They 515 00:20:34.089 --> 00:20:34.990 showed up with their heaters. 516 00:20:35.170 --> 00:20:36.109 Am I remembering wrong? 517 00:20:36.130 --> 00:20:38.359 But like when we started the race, it kind of 518 00:20:38.380 --> 00:20:42.279 stopped raining though. It was not raining when we started. 519 00:20:42.740 --> 00:20:45.940 We did a quick down to your street and back. Yeah. 520 00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:48.089 I got there at about four in the morning and 521 00:20:48.130 --> 00:20:50.490 it was dry and I was so excited because the 522 00:20:50.509 --> 00:20:51.210 rain was forecast. 523 00:20:51.230 --> 00:20:52.789 It was going to happen. It's dry. 524 00:20:52.829 --> 00:20:55.470 Let's do this. We got everything set up. It started 525 00:20:55.509 --> 00:20:57.509 to drizzle a little bit and I said, you know what? 526 00:20:57.950 --> 00:20:59.410 I'm not going to wear the rain jacket. I got 527 00:20:59.430 --> 00:21:01.069 to wear the turkey trot shirt because I love it. 528 00:21:01.509 --> 00:21:03.539 And I pulled it off and by race time I 529 00:21:03.579 --> 00:21:06.400 was soaked. But at race time, right at nine o'clock, 530 00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:07.740 it was relatively dry. 531 00:21:08.009 --> 00:21:08.990 Yeah. Or not dry. 532 00:21:09.130 --> 00:21:11.970 It had stopped raining for a second. In the middle 533 00:21:12.009 --> 00:21:14.710 of the set that the Rum Runners were doing, we 534 00:21:14.730 --> 00:21:15.599 were just doused. 535 00:21:15.630 --> 00:21:17.170 That's when it was bad. We were doused. Yeah. 536 00:21:17.299 --> 00:21:19.839 I think Laser Tag took all the tents from the 537 00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:21.680 people that showed them up so that the kids could 538 00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:24.819 still run around. Because James was so concerned his gear 539 00:21:24.839 --> 00:21:25.460 was just going. 540 00:21:25.339 --> 00:21:29.180 To get drowned. And it's good gear. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. No, 541 00:21:29.220 --> 00:21:29.740 it's a great time. 542 00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:31.640 All the money goes to Milford Public Schools. 543 00:21:31.660 --> 00:21:31.839 Yeah. 544 00:21:32.220 --> 00:21:35.549 To Purple Pantry, which is food insecurity here at Milford, 545

00:21:35.789 --> 00:21:39.609 and to Avery's Little Army, which is pediatric cancer. 546 00:21:39.930 --> 00:21:40.390 We had him on. 547 00:21:40.410 --> 00:21:46.079 You had, yeah. Paul and Lisa Lafferty really do a 548 00:21:46.119 --> 00:21:47.519 great job with that organization. 549 00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:47.980 Yeah, it's amazing. 550 00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:50.359 They do a lot of different events, but it's something. 551 00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:52.539 That no parent or child should ever have to go through. No. 552 00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:55.099 They were part of CAF Penn, where my kids are at, 553 00:21:56.059 --> 00:21:59.000 when Avery was there. It's good organizations. 554 00:21:59.059 --> 00:22:01.069 It's a good time. Yeah. And we have fun, right? 555 00:22:01.089 --> 00:22:05.920 I know. I loved it because I would get a 556 00:22:05.960 --> 00:22:08.579 nice buzz. It's early in the morning, especially for me. 557 00:22:08.980 --> 00:22:11.160 So I got to work Wednesday night at Stonebridge, you know, 558 00:22:11.180 --> 00:22:13.779 because it's the night before. Oh, excuse me. Thanksgiving. 559 00:22:13.799 --> 00:22:14.480 That was a good one. 560 00:22:14.809 --> 00:22:18.049 Sorry about that. And so, you know, it comes a 561 00:22:18.069 --> 00:22:19.670 little quicker, but now I'm used to getting up early 562 00:22:19.690 --> 00:22:21.869 with my other job. So no big deal now. 563 00:22:22.170 --> 00:22:23.890 And you're not up until three in the morning the 564 00:22:23.910 --> 00:22:24.349 night before. 565 00:22:24.569 --> 00:22:26.069 No, no, no. I was just saying, I still am. 566 00:22:26.150 --> 00:22:26.549 I worked at. 567 00:22:26.789 --> 00:22:28.990 Oh, nice. I pick, you know, I'm working this Saturday. 568 00:22:29.029 --> 00:22:29.529 Picking up shifts. 569 00:22:29.549 --> 00:22:34.990 Yeah. Just, you know, got to grind, baby. And so 570 00:22:35.990 --> 00:22:39.599 basically when we work that Wednesday night, we have what's 571 00:22:39.619 --> 00:22:40.500 called a PLP. 572 00:22:41.980 --> 00:22:44.859 A PLP is a parking lot party. So after work. 573 00:22:44.980 --> 00:22:45.599 After the shift. 574 00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:47.400 After the shift, we go out to the parking lot. 575 00:22:47.420 --> 00:22:49.369 Good Lord. And we have some shots and some beers. 576 00:22:50.230 --> 00:22:53.029 Cause it's not really a late night. Milford has kind 577 00:22:53.069 --> 00:22:56.710 of gone away from the late night since COVID. Yes. Uh, 578 00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:00.059 my bar stays open late citrus sometimes, but Stonebridge, when 579 00:23:00.099 --> 00:23:00.920 we're done, we're done. 580 00:23:01.000 --> 00:23:02.500 Even on the, even in the summer 10. 581 00:23:02.500 --> 00:23:06.500 Right. Yeah. So we go out there and then I 582 00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:08.579 go and see you guys, what? Eight in the morning, 583 00:23:08.599 --> 00:23:12.569 whatever time it is. And, uh, I see the, the 584 00:23:12.609 --> 00:23:15.410 coffee stout, like we were talking about before coffee Porter, 585 00:23:15.430 --> 00:23:16.029 whatever it is. 586 00:23:16.430 --> 00:23:18.720 And, uh, I just had one of those. I'm like, 587 00:23:18.839 --> 00:23:19.980 all right, I'm already feeling good. 588 00:23:20.259 --> 00:23:22.400 Nevco is very generous every year. 589 00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:23.500 And then. 590 00:23:24.579 --> 00:23:26.500 We go to Stonebridge now for dinner, but we do 591 00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:30.359 it late, like 4 o'clock. So me and Nicole will 592 00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:32.480 tie a little one on with just beers. We're not 593 00:23:32.769 --> 00:23:35.289 ripping shots or anything. And then we'll go home and 594 00:23:35.309 --> 00:23:39.150 take a nap. Watch the 1 o'clock game. Nap before 595 00:23:39.190 --> 00:23:41.109 Thanksgiving dinner. And then we go out to dinner. 596 00:23:42.299 --> 00:23:45.640 Now it's become a tradition, a ritual, if you will. 597 00:23:45.819 --> 00:23:48.119 It's great. And we love it. We love it. Brayden 598 00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:50.579 said he's probably going to come this year because he 599 00:23:50.599 --> 00:23:53.880 doesn't have a game. But he's 16 now, so he 600 00:23:53.900 --> 00:23:55.980 probably has plans with his friends that morning to go. 601 00:23:55.849 --> 00:23:59.329 To foreign law or something. Well, they can still do it, 602 00:23:59.549 --> 00:24:03.589 make a game. But I got so many emails from 603 00:24:03.650 --> 00:24:06.109 people over the years of saying, hey, this is our 604 00:24:06.150 --> 00:24:10.549 new family tradition. Uh, our family from New Hampshire and 605 00:24:10.630 --> 00:24:13.990 New York and New Jersey are all joining us and 606 00:24:14.009 --> 00:24:15.349 they're excited about the turkey trot. 607 00:24:15.369 --> 00:24:16.289 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 608 00:24:16.329 --> 00:24:19.299 And it's just, it's so incredible because you don't know 609 00:24:19.339 --> 00:24:20.539 about that until someone tells you. 610 00:24:20.559 --> 00:24:21.079 Yeah. 611 00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:25.099 But I had one person register 29 people in one. 612 00:24:25.460 --> 00:24:27.089 Like one group thing. Yeah. 613 00:24:27.140 --> 00:24:29.089 And it was, I, I reached out to him, so 614 00:24:29.150 --> 00:24:30.309 I said, this is very odd. 615 00:24:30.690 --> 00:24:34.470 What went well? You sure? Right, yeah. Did the system break? Right, right, right. 616 00:24:34.619 --> 00:24:36.599 And he goes, no, it's me, it's all my kids, 617 00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:39.339 my grandchildren, and we're all doing it because this is 618 00:24:39.380 --> 00:24:43.880 such a fun time. Some people wear costumes. Some people 619 00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:44.779 show up sober. 620 00:24:44.819 --> 00:24:46.680 Some people don't. You know what I love? 621 00:24:47.140 --> 00:24:49.769 This is my favorite thing because I'm such not an athletic. 622 00:24:49.890 --> 00:24:53.549 Well, I consider

myself, I'm athletic. I just don't do 623 00:24:53.589 --> 00:24:56.569 it anymore anymore. Um, I love like the runners show 624 00:24:56.609 --> 00:24:59.589 up to these things. Like they take it so fucking seriously, 625 00:24:59.630 --> 00:25:01.599 which is cool. I mean, that's their thing. They're runners 626 00:25:01.630 --> 00:25:03.440 to cut off shirt. Oh yeah. And then they're in 627 00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:05.400 like all the gear. Yeah. 628 00:25:05.700 --> 00:25:07.700 And they're like, they're waiting for you to shoot that 629 00:25:07.779 --> 00:25:10.509 gun and start it. And they're like, they're out the door. 630 00:25:10.529 --> 00:25:12.710 And I'm like, Me and my friends are wheeling the 631 00:25:12.750 --> 00:25:13.210 two kids. 632 00:25:13.250 --> 00:25:17.769 We're drinking beers down Gulf Street. It's great you mentioned 633 00:25:17.789 --> 00:25:19.990 that because there are people that are just like that 634 00:25:20.029 --> 00:25:21.549 but now have kids. Yeah, yeah. 635 00:25:21.670 --> 00:25:23.589 And they're like, I can be the first one through 636 00:25:23.630 --> 00:25:24.349 with a stroller. 637 00:25:24.529 --> 00:25:25.369 Yeah, yeah. 638 00:25:25.390 --> 00:25:27.670 Or even better, the guy I was talking to two 639 00:25:27.710 --> 00:25:30.009 nights ago, he's like, I'm going to win the turkey 640 00:25:30.049 --> 00:25:32.690 trot with the double stroller. I'll be the first one 641 00:25:32.750 --> 00:25:35.210 through with two kids and one stroller. And I was like, wait, 642 00:25:35.230 --> 00:25:35.970 this is a thing? 643 00:25:35.990 --> 00:25:38.630 Right. They're serious, though. I know. 644 00:25:38.970 --> 00:25:41.170 And he's like, yeah, I think I can get 25 minutes. 645 00:25:41.190 --> 00:25:44.779 I was like, 25 minutes? I couldn't do that. Runners 646 00:25:44.859 --> 00:25:48.299 are a whole– I grew up on runners. My mother 647 00:25:48.339 --> 00:25:50.599 dated the L track coach. He was a cross country 648 00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:53.460 and indoor-outdoor track. And I used to work the events 649 00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:57.619 all the time. And, like, he was women, so it 650 00:25:57.640 --> 00:26:00.380 was all the girls. But, like, I grew up on it. 651 00:26:00.380 --> 00:26:02.220 I never liked it. I could never stand running. I 652 00:26:02.240 --> 00:26:04.049 just thought– I mean, when we had to run at football, 653 00:26:04.069 --> 00:26:04.470 it sucked. 654 00:26:04.549 --> 00:26:09.059 I hated it. It's just tedious for me. And it shows, 655 00:26:09.299 --> 00:26:09.559 you know. 656 00:26:10.099 --> 00:26:13.089 But, no, but, like, seriously, like, it's a. 657 00:26:13.410 --> 00:26:15.049 The camera now shows an eight pack. 658 00:26:15.130 --> 00:26:18.900 It's a, yeah. It's a cult. It really... I think 659 00:26:18.940 --> 00:26:20.420 running is like a cult. It's a runner's high. 660 00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:21.460 Yeah. 661 00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:23.680 People do it for the runner's high. Yeah. I'm like, 662 00:26:23.740 --> 00:26:25.309 I'll gladly get out of your way, bro. You go 663 00:26:25.349 --> 00:26:27.490 win this thing, man. God bless you. So. 664 00:26:28.170 --> 00:26:30.049 And that's not making fun of this event. 665 00:26:30.089 --> 00:26:31.930 I don't know. I grew up on it. I know 666 00:26:31.950 --> 00:26:32.490 how they are. 667 00:26:32.509 --> 00:26:33.710 They take it way. 668 00:26:33.730 --> 00:26:34.869 I don't know if they... I don't want to say 669 00:26:34.910 --> 00:26:37.490 they take it too seriously, because whatever. No, but it's 670 00:26:37.509 --> 00:26:37.890 what they're into. 671 00:26:37.910 --> 00:26:39.569 I don't know how many cards I collect. They probably 672 00:26:39.589 --> 00:26:40.529 take this too seriously. 673 00:26:40.569 --> 00:26:41.359 So we all have our. 674 00:26:42.170 --> 00:26:42.950 Things we like to. 675 00:26:42.910 --> 00:26:46.410 Do in life. It's a vice for them. Yeah. I agree. Again, 676 00:26:46.450 --> 00:26:47.230 I'm not making fun of them. 677 00:26:47.279 --> 00:26:49.519 I see them. I'm like, I can point them out 678 00:26:49.559 --> 00:26:52.660 right away. That's the runner right there. If I could 679 00:26:52.700 --> 00:26:54.819 bet on it, I'm like, I'm going to bet. 680 00:26:54.700 --> 00:26:57.319 $ 10 on that guy. Yeah, yeah, right? Yeah. 681 00:26:57.700 --> 00:26:58.849 No, you're trading, by the way. 682 00:26:58.859 --> 00:27:01.539 You're not betting. That's how it's legal. Yeah, yeah. No, 683 00:27:01.579 --> 00:27:05.539 but my wife is very much in and around that 684 00:27:05.759 --> 00:27:07.259 sphere of influence. Yeah. 685 00:27:08.059 --> 00:27:10.019 When I met her, she went out and she did 686 00:27:10.259 --> 00:27:12.359 a full Ironman in Madison, Wisconsin. 687 00:27:12.740 --> 00:27:13.019 Oh, wow. 688 00:27:13.079 --> 00:27:15.779 And I was like, what? You do this for how 689 00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:18.140 many hours? You're doing what events? 690 00:27:18.740 --> 00:27:21.809 Where's the beer? So I went and I watched. 691 00:27:21.829 --> 00:27:23.269 Of course, I had a few beers and I was 692 00:27:23.289 --> 00:27:28.750 hanging out. The adrenaline and the excitement of the whole event. Afterwards, 693 00:27:28.950 --> 00:27:31.230 I told her once she was coherent again, because she 694 00:27:31.250 --> 00:27:33.809 had just ran. She had just swam, bike and ran 695 00:27:33.849 --> 00:27:35.609 for an insane amount of time. I told her, like, 696 00:27:35.690 --> 00:27:36.349 I want to do one. 697 00:27:36.390 --> 00:27:37.210 I want to do one. Let's go. 698 00:27:37.700 --> 00:27:40.910 She's like, no, no, no, let's start with something smaller. Like, 699 00:27:40.930 --> 00:27:42.130 let's do a half marathon. 700 00:27:42.170 --> 00:27:42.369 Yeah. 701 00:27:42.430 --> 00:27:44.549 And then from there, we'll do a half Ironman. And 702 00:27:44.589 --> 00:27:46.509 I ended up doing a couple half Ironmans. 703

00:27:47.049 --> 00:27:48.670 But I have to tell you, at no point in 704 00:27:48.819 --> 00:27:51.900 any of those was there enjoyment. Right. None of it 705 00:27:51.920 --> 00:27:52.299 was fun. 706 00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:54.369 Yeah, but you feel accomplished, though, when you finish it. 707 00:27:54.559 --> 00:27:55.720 The before was great. 708 00:27:55.779 --> 00:27:58.500 Yeah. The after was incredible. 709 00:27:58.960 --> 00:28:01.500 And people ask, what was the worst mile? 710 00:28:01.559 --> 00:28:04.079 And I said, the current mile. It didn't matter if 711 00:28:04.220 --> 00:28:08.579 I was 10 feet in or, what is it, 113 712 00:28:08.579 --> 00:28:11.759 miles in or something like that. 56 miles is a half. 713 00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:16.309 I was like, all of it absolutely sucked. Absolutely sucked. 714 00:28:16.930 --> 00:28:20.450 But at the end, you feel so cool and so great. Yeah. 715 00:28:20.470 --> 00:28:22.170 And you get that little medal. Yeah, I'm sure. And 716 00:28:22.190 --> 00:28:24.150 you get that little shirt. If I could do a 717 00:28:24.509 --> 00:28:27.630 half anything, I would fucking feel accomplished. On that note, 718 00:28:27.789 --> 00:28:31.519 I have to point out differences for this year. We're 719 00:28:31.539 --> 00:28:32.630 a little bit ahead of schedule. 720 00:28:32.779 --> 00:28:37.819 I have printed out and created on a Glowforge 2,100 721 00:28:37.819 --> 00:28:40.279 finisher medals. They're not metal. They're wood. 722 00:28:41.069 --> 00:28:43.130 Um, but last year's were a little rough cause it 723 00:28:43.150 --> 00:28:44.529 was the first time I ever did it. I think 724 00:28:44.569 --> 00:28:45.910 I got about 1100 done. 725 00:28:46.269 --> 00:28:46.750 Wow. 726 00:28:47.029 --> 00:28:48.890 We had 2000 people. So not everyone got one, which 727 00:28:48.930 --> 00:28:51.109 I felt really bad about. We tried to prioritize the 728 00:28:51.130 --> 00:28:54.789 kids this year. We have 2100. Uh, they're already ready 729 00:28:54.809 --> 00:28:58.119 to go. Now, now finishers. Now it doesn't matter one, 730 00:28:58.150 --> 00:28:59.420 two or three miles. 731 00:28:59.440 --> 00:29:01.380 You're coming back. You're going out. You're coming back. 732 00:29:01.420 --> 00:29:02.380 Everyone gets a medal. 733 00:29:02.420 --> 00:29:03.430 That's the world we live in. 734 00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:06.700 You get a, what is it? Uh, you get a Pontiac. 735 00:29:06.720 --> 00:29:07.680 You get a Pontiac. 736 00:29:07.859 --> 00:29:11.940 Um, No, but they're already printed out and we're a 737 00:29:11.980 --> 00:29:14.319 month ahead. So this is way different. 738 00:29:14.380 --> 00:29:14.910 We've learned a lot. 739 00:29:14.920 --> 00:29:16.140 I definitely didn't get one last year. 740 00:29:16.160 --> 00:29:16.880 Yeah, exactly. 741 00:29:17.000 --> 00:29:19.880 Because I, I was like the first one in too. 742 00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:21.559 Cause I just went, I just went down the street 743 00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:24.980 and back up. Other than like the five guys in 744 00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:28.740 the running shorts and the bleeding nipples. Cause they went 745 00:29:28.789 --> 00:29:31.390 so fast and all that. Look, I reserved them just 746 00:29:31.410 --> 00:29:33.349 for kids because we had so many kids. 747 00:29:33.410 --> 00:29:34.650 It was awesome. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. 748 00:29:34.970 --> 00:29:36.329 But this year everyone gets one. 749 00:29:36.359 --> 00:29:39.539 Everyone's super pumped i'm pumped for that uh funny quick 750 00:29:39.579 --> 00:29:43.599 story so cox cage is the indoor track facility at 751 00:29:43.640 --> 00:29:49.789 yale that's a great name yeah right cox um i'm 752 00:29:49.829 --> 00:29:52.630 just i don't know you went there i didn't uh 753 00:29:53.500 --> 00:29:54.559 I used to run the scoreboard there. 754 00:29:54.740 --> 00:29:57.319 I had a little computer, and the results would come in. 755 00:29:57.380 --> 00:29:59.599 I'd get a printout, and I'd put the results in 756 00:29:59.740 --> 00:30:02.950 on the thing, and I'd put them up on the board. So-so, St. 757 00:30:02.990 --> 00:30:07.930 John's winner, whatever. But we're raised up, and right down 758 00:30:07.970 --> 00:30:11.630 to my left is a trainer table. A lot of 759 00:30:11.650 --> 00:30:14.180 the Yale girls kind of hang out there. They stretch 760 00:30:14.220 --> 00:30:17.940 before their races and stuff. Well, the event that was 761 00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:20.700 going on was, I think, the 5,000-meter, the really long one. 762 00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:21.839 I'm going to go. 763 00:30:21.779 --> 00:30:23.759 Around and around and around. I don't know. 764 00:30:23.779 --> 00:30:24.559 The indoor track? 765 00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:26.559 Well, you know what? Maybe it was more like 3,500 766 00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:28.160 because I don't think they do 5,000 inside. But is 767 00:30:28.180 --> 00:30:30.940 it a 400-meter track? It's a 400-meter track. So, yeah. 768 00:30:31.119 --> 00:30:34.069 It was probably 3,500 might be the max for that. 769 00:30:34.990 --> 00:30:36.089 Anyway, they're just running. 770 00:30:36.109 --> 00:30:38.009 They're running. I'm kind of chilling because I don't have 771 00:30:38.029 --> 00:30:40.430 to post any results for a while. I'm just kind 772 00:30:40.470 --> 00:30:42.849 of paying attention. All of a sudden, she's over. I'm done. Yeah, no. 773 00:30:43.690 --> 00:30:45.289 I just happened to look down, and the girl's getting 774 00:30:45.309 --> 00:30:46.049 her ankle taped. 775 00:30:46.420 --> 00:30:48.440 And I look over, and I see a girl hunched 776 00:30:48.539 --> 00:30:51.539 over by her bag, and she has a Dixie cup. 777 00:30:52.500 --> 00:30:55.269 And she's pouring straight vodka into it. This is no lie. 778 00:30:55.380 --> 00:30:59.250 A runner. A runner. She's pouring, yeah, a Yale athlete. 779 00:30:59.569 --> 00:31:02.710 She's pouring straight vodka into it. I'm like, what

the 780 00:31:02.769 --> 00:31:05.289 fuck is she doing? So now I see there's like 781 00:31:05.490 --> 00:31:08.859 the bell lap goes off. This fucking girl runs over 782 00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:14.500 to the fucking, the stripe, the finish line. And I'm 783 00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:16.299 just watching her, and I see the girl coming around. 784 00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:19.849 It's a Yale girl that's winning it. She finishes the race. Yes. 785 00:31:20.230 --> 00:31:22.230 She fucking hands her the cup of vodka, and this 786 00:31:22.250 --> 00:31:26.509 girl chugs it and immediately vomits all over the place. 787 00:31:26.730 --> 00:31:27.740 Just played a prank on her. 788 00:31:30.349 --> 00:31:33.710 I thought it was planned and the girl was excited. No, no, no. 789 00:31:33.730 --> 00:31:35.650 She fucked her over. That prank is even better. 790 00:31:36.269 --> 00:31:37.549 That prank is even better. 791 00:31:37.630 --> 00:31:38.589 So I asked Mark. 792 00:31:38.650 --> 00:31:41.089 His name was Mark Young at the time, my mom's boyfriend. 793 00:31:41.210 --> 00:31:41.829 And we all did. 794 00:31:41.710 --> 00:31:45.150 Together in Madison. And I said, did that girl get 795 00:31:45.190 --> 00:31:45.609 in trouble? 796 00:31:45.650 --> 00:31:48.029 He goes, I wanted to fucking discipline her so bad. 797 00:31:48.109 --> 00:31:50.930 But I've never seen it before. It was the funniest 798 00:31:50.950 --> 00:31:51.890 thing ever. It's hilarious. 799 00:31:51.910 --> 00:31:53.569 They were all 21. They were like seniors. 800 00:31:53.609 --> 00:31:57.829 So it wasn't like, you know, but. I just didn't 801 00:31:57.970 --> 00:31:58.769 know what was going on. 802 00:31:59.029 --> 00:31:59.529 And I was like you. 803 00:31:59.549 --> 00:32:00.589 I was like, oh, this girl's just going to rip 804 00:32:00.630 --> 00:32:02.470 a shot, thinking like, oh, we're all in on it? 805 00:32:02.470 --> 00:32:04.630 That girl wasn't in on it. Or the winner was 806 00:32:04.710 --> 00:32:08.230 ready and wanted to celebrate a win with a shot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, here, 807 00:32:08.259 --> 00:32:10.339 let's do a shot. 808 00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:12.759 That's unfortunate. That story took a turn. 809 00:32:12.799 --> 00:32:16.099 Didn't it? Didn't it? A good one. Yeah. Dark, then happy. 810 00:32:16.180 --> 00:32:17.460 I was like 16 at the time. 811 00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:19.160 I'm just looking down here. I'm like, what is she doing? 812 00:32:19.700 --> 00:32:22.089 I'm glad that you can recognize a bottle of vodka 813 00:32:22.109 --> 00:32:22.220 at 16. 814 00:32:22.220 --> 00:32:24.640 Well done. Well, I mean, you grew up with parents 815 00:32:24.660 --> 00:32:28.700 that booze in the house. So I lived with his daughter, 816 00:32:28.980 --> 00:32:30.779 and she was two years older than me. So when 817 00:32:31.079 --> 00:32:33.039 she was a senior, I was a sophomore. 818 00:32:33.059 --> 00:32:35.940 I didn't really start drinking until I got to college, really. 819 00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:37.779 It's really not a scenario where you can use your 820 00:32:37.819 --> 00:32:38.849 sibling's ID, is it? 821 00:32:39.339 --> 00:32:41.359 No, no, no, no. Well, plus it was a girl, 822 00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:43.259 so yeah. That was the whole point. Yeah, sure. 823 00:32:45.539 --> 00:32:49.309 This is how I identified it. So yeah, so you've 824 00:32:49.329 --> 00:32:51.609 got options. You've got one, two, three miles. You can 825 00:32:51.650 --> 00:32:53.490 walk really a foot if you want to. It's all 826 00:32:53.529 --> 00:32:54.849 about just fucking coming. 827 00:32:54.910 --> 00:32:56.890 It's just having a good time. And the rum runners 828 00:32:56.950 --> 00:33:00.160 are playing, and laser tag's there. 829 00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:03.380 We've got beer. There's a whole bunch of breweries right 830 00:33:03.420 --> 00:33:05.859 now that are signing up and participating, which is super cool. 831 00:33:05.880 --> 00:33:08.180 So I will do my usual call to Viva. Oh, 832 00:33:08.220 --> 00:33:09.619 that would be phenomenal if we can. 833 00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:11.430 We were drinking Vivas last year. 834 00:33:12.150 --> 00:33:14.069 Again, they're not around, so hopefully they can get a 835 00:33:14.109 --> 00:33:14.730 hold of us. 836 00:33:15.339 --> 00:33:16.099 One of their salesmen. 837 00:33:16.460 --> 00:33:18.019 Did we drop those off at your house last year? 838 00:33:18.059 --> 00:33:19.299 Did I get them and I bring them over? 839 00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:21.420 You got them into the driveway. No, I did. 840 00:33:21.440 --> 00:33:23.480 Oh, yeah, you were home. You did. You did. You did. 841 00:33:23.660 --> 00:33:24.680 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 842 00:33:24.700 --> 00:33:26.220 She was in town. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 843 00:33:26.380 --> 00:33:28.660 She's always in town. She loves this event. I love Rita. 844 00:33:28.880 --> 00:33:29.519 Yeah. 845 00:33:29.859 --> 00:33:31.470 But Counterweight has signed up. 846 00:33:31.660 --> 00:33:31.779 Nice. 847 00:33:31.799 --> 00:33:32.619 So that's super cool. 848 00:33:32.640 --> 00:33:35.549 Of course, Nipco is. Do you know Larry? I do 849 00:33:35.589 --> 00:33:36.009 not know. 850 00:33:36.069 --> 00:33:39.269 So my neighbor is the one who does all the beer. 851 00:33:39.329 --> 00:33:42.289 He's a great guy. Nice. So Larry used to be 852 00:33:42.349 --> 00:33:45.029 the salesman for Star, and he's been with Counterweight for 853 00:33:45.069 --> 00:33:46.289 a while. Awesome guy. 854 00:33:46.549 --> 00:33:47.690 He actually got me tickets. 855 00:33:48.509 --> 00:33:51.490 Another bad story. He got me tickets to the All-Star 856 00:33:51.529 --> 00:33:55.849 game at Citi Field, whatever year it was. It happened 857 00:33:55.890 --> 00:34:00.380 to be Mariano Rivera's last All-Star game. Oh, good Lord. 858 00:34:00.710 --> 00:34:05.039 So it was 90,000 degrees, and we were way up there. 859 00:34:05.119 --> 00:34:07.599 Don't care. We

got into the game. Yeah, we were, yeah. 860 00:34:08.389 --> 00:34:10.309 Well, it was nighttime, but it was still just humid. 861 00:34:10.369 --> 00:34:12.829 It was hot nights. And it was kind of towards 862 00:34:12.869 --> 00:34:14.809 the end of my relationship with my girlfriend at the time. 863 00:34:15.889 --> 00:34:18.909 And not that we argued all the time, but she 864 00:34:18.949 --> 00:34:21.659 was getting real cranky. And I'm like, listen, you just 865 00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:22.050 want to go. 866 00:34:22.110 --> 00:34:23.610 It's an all-star game. It's not like we're going to 867 00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:24.690 witness history. 868 00:34:24.380 --> 00:34:27.039 Or anything, right? She's like, yeah, all right. Do you mind? 869 00:34:27.099 --> 00:34:29.739 I'm like, we'll just fucking go. We get in the car, 870 00:34:29.760 --> 00:34:32.360 turn on the radio. All you hear is Metallica. What 871 00:34:32.699 --> 00:34:39.250 was the Mariano song? It was a Metallica song. 872 00:34:39.630 --> 00:34:40.789 I'm a Minnesota Twins fan. 873 00:34:40.809 --> 00:34:41.170 Oh, come on. 874 00:34:41.210 --> 00:34:42.159 People hate me for this. 875 00:34:42.840 --> 00:34:47.000 So Mariano comes out in the eighth inning because they 876 00:34:47.039 --> 00:34:49.579 had a chance to not have to pitch in the ninth. 877 00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:51.280 So they wanted to make sure he got out for 878 00:34:51.320 --> 00:34:53.820 his final fucking game, an all-star game. 879 00:34:54.760 --> 00:34:57.840 And we were there, and we left before it happened. 880 00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:00.980 And I was like, I couldn't even tell Larry. I'm like, oh, yeah, 881 00:35:01.019 --> 00:35:01.340 how was it? 882 00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:02.800 It was great, Larry. Great. 883 00:35:04.429 --> 00:35:07.030 Larry's a really good dude. 884 00:35:07.090 --> 00:35:10.329 Yeah. You missed that one. Enter Sandman. 885 00:35:10.389 --> 00:35:10.989 Enter Sandman. 886 00:35:11.849 --> 00:35:11.969 Oh. 887 00:35:12.030 --> 00:35:13.050 Is the song he came out to. 888 00:35:13.070 --> 00:35:14.929 Is it really? Yeah. That's a good one. Well, it was. 889 00:35:15.449 --> 00:35:17.929 Also, Billy Wagner came out to that, too, because he 890 00:35:17.969 --> 00:35:18.730 used to be a Met. 891 00:35:19.369 --> 00:35:23.409 I remember that. Twins, though, huh? All right. 892 00:35:23.449 --> 00:35:26.869 How about your Vikings, though? The Vikings were great until 893 00:35:26.989 --> 00:35:29.730 Detroit rolled in. Well, I mean, it was a weird game. 894 00:35:30.210 --> 00:35:30.820 It was awkward. 895 00:35:30.929 --> 00:35:32.760 You're going to have to win every game defensively, really, 896 00:35:32.820 --> 00:35:36.780 I think. With, yeah. You have two good wide receivers, but. 897 00:35:38.139 --> 00:35:40.650 Addison is great at running straight. 898 00:35:41.369 --> 00:35:42.070 Yeah. 899 00:35:42.309 --> 00:35:42.949 He can go deep. 900 00:35:43.110 --> 00:35:43.250 Yeah.

901 00:35:43.289 --> 00:35:44.829 And the only reason he can go deep is because 902 00:35:44.889 --> 00:35:47.840 Jefferson turns in. He's doing the crosser. 903 00:35:48.059 --> 00:35:48.820 Yeah. Yeah. 904 00:35:48.860 --> 00:35:51.820 So when people are excited about Jefferson, but he needs 905 00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:53.869 to get hot early if Addison needs to have a chance. 906 00:35:53.949 --> 00:35:54.889 Yeah. Because otherwise it's hot. 907 00:35:54.909 --> 00:35:57.510 Yeah. We play each other in a couple weeks on 908 00:35:57.530 --> 00:35:58.130 a Thursday night. 909 00:35:58.510 --> 00:36:00.469 Oh, nice. We should go out for that game. I'm in. 910 00:36:02.159 --> 00:36:04.619 Or you come over, I'll come over to your house, whatever. 911 00:36:04.820 --> 00:36:07.099 So I love Milford. It's phenomenal. 912 00:36:07.199 --> 00:36:10.179 My neighbor throws Thursday night football parties in his pool house. 913 00:36:10.780 --> 00:36:11.699 Every Thursday? 914 00:36:11.739 --> 00:36:12.440 Every Thursday. 915 00:36:12.460 --> 00:36:15.059 Oh, I'll come to that. And based on what's happening, 916 00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:18.300 we'll get food. So when it was the Bears versus 917 00:36:18.530 --> 00:36:22.909 whoever it was a couple weeks ago, I ordered from... 918 00:36:23.500 --> 00:36:25.550 It's not Blue Belly, like Pot Belly. One of those 919 00:36:25.590 --> 00:36:29.170 things where there were Chicago deep dish pizzas flown in 920 00:36:29.230 --> 00:36:31.449 from Chicago, and we put them in the oven and 921 00:36:31.489 --> 00:36:32.010 heated them up. 922 00:36:32.130 --> 00:36:32.849 Like Luminati's? 923 00:36:32.869 --> 00:36:34.969 No, it started with a G. 924 00:36:34.989 --> 00:36:35.929 Or Pequod's or whatever? 925 00:36:35.949 --> 00:36:37.030 It started with a G. 926 00:36:37.409 --> 00:36:37.769 Oh, yeah. 927 00:36:37.909 --> 00:36:39.900 I'm going to say Gianotti's, but that's not right. 928 00:36:39.920 --> 00:36:39.980 No. 929 00:36:40.139 --> 00:36:43.300 Because you said the other one. But anyways, it was phenomenal. 930 00:36:43.320 --> 00:36:46.320 So we had six deep dish pies flown in. Thursday, 931 00:36:46.380 --> 00:36:47.079 December 10th. 932 00:36:47.400 --> 00:36:48.329 There you go. We're rocking it. 933 00:36:48.960 --> 00:36:51.380 We're ready. But it's so fun. And where I was 934 00:36:51.420 --> 00:36:53.869 going with this is that... We got my son a 935 00:36:54.090 --> 00:36:58.170 slushie machine, a ninja slushie machine from Costco. And it 936 00:36:58.210 --> 00:37:00.130 goes to Thursday Night Football every week. 937 00:37:01.610 --> 00:37:04.349 My son will run over from the house, grab his 938 00:37:04.369 --> 00:37:06.070 little cup, fill one up. 939 00:37:06.210 --> 00:37:08.889 I mean, he's 10 years old. It's totally fine. And 940 00:37:08.909 --> 00:37:11.889 he fills it up. And then he leaves, and he'll 941 00:37:11.909 --> 00:37:13.809 grab one, and he'll come back if it's really good, 942 00:37:13.829 --> 00:37:16.010 because we always keep him non-alcoholic. And you add the 943 00:37:16.050 --> 00:37:18.420 vodka on the side for you. And then we add 944 00:37:18.579 --> 00:37:21.099 the rum, tequila, vodka, whatever the drink is for that day, 945 00:37:21.179 --> 00:37:23.039 but Those slushy machines are phenomenal. 946 00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:24.800 So if you're doing a Thursday night, or if you're 947 00:37:24.840 --> 00:37:26.420 doing any football party, you need a slushy machine. Yeah, 948 00:37:26.440 --> 00:37:27.000 Nicole bought one. 949 00:37:27.059 --> 00:37:29.219 The only thing is, like, she puts the alcohol right 950 00:37:29.260 --> 00:37:29.469 in it. 951 00:37:30.039 --> 00:37:31.179 That's different, though. Right. 952 00:37:31.639 --> 00:37:33.619 Because you have to go way colder to freeze them. 953 00:37:34.619 --> 00:37:37.679 Well, the problem is, like, you can only fill, like, 954 00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:41.360 three fucking, like, 16-ounce cups, and it's gone. 955 00:37:41.389 --> 00:37:42.469 Oh, this is 138-ounce. 956 00:37:42.710 --> 00:37:46.210 Oh, really? 140-ounce.

It's like that deep. Yeah. 959 00:37:50.949 --> 00:37:53.090 But it's not the three times high like that one. 960 00:37:53.110 --> 00:37:53.630 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 961 00:37:53.769 --> 00:37:56.789 So you can do maybe 10 drinks with this one. 962 00:37:57.130 --> 00:37:58.889 Oh, nice. I would recommend it. And it's cheap. It's 963 00:37:58.909 --> 00:37:59.239 only $ 200. 964 00:37:59.139 --> 00:38:02.300 Yeah, she got hers. It was some Amazon deal. She 965 00:38:02.320 --> 00:38:04.179 hasn't done it in a while. We had the, which 966 00:38:04.219 --> 00:38:06.260 you didn't show up to, the Irish bar at our house. 967 00:38:07.260 --> 00:38:09.559 I apologize. There was a baseball game that night. 968 00:38:09.579 --> 00:38:12.980 All right. I texted you. I know. It looked awesome.

I've been 971 00:38:17.139 --> 00:38:17.699 making them all day. 972 00:38:17.719 --> 00:38:18.550 I said, all right, all right. 973 00:38:19.199 --> 00:38:21.409 So Halloween, I'm like, do like a witch's brew, margarita 974 00:38:21.449 --> 00:38:23.449 or something.

Can we upgrade? 980 00:38:32.010 --> 00:38:35.210 No, I'm telling you, man, this Ninja, it's

phenomenal. 981 00:38:35.230 --> 00:38:37.409 I don't think ours is a Ninja, but... I don't 982 00:38:37.429 --> 00:38:38.590 care if it's a Ninja or not, but that's the 983 00:38:38.630 --> 00:38:39.510 one that we have. No, no, I'm just trying to 984 00:38:39.530 --> 00:38:41.369 remember what brand she bought that was on sale. It 985 00:38:41.389 --> 00:38:43.969 was like $ 135. I should call it Kirkland. It's the Kirkland. Yeah, 986 00:38:43.989 --> 00:38:47.429 the Kirkland, right? Everything's Kirkland. That's the thing about Costco. 987 00:38:47.489 --> 00:38:49.530 I can go in, and I don't care what brand 988 00:38:49.550 --> 00:38:51.550 it is or what product it is, if it made 989 00:38:51.570 --> 00:38:52.349 it through their buyers. 990 00:38:53.119 --> 00:38:56.179 I'm a fan because I trust him. But again, I'm 991 00:38:56.199 --> 00:38:58.460 too trusting. I want to throw my kid in a 992 00:38:58.480 --> 00:39:00.679 driverless car now so I don't have to drive him 993 00:39:00.699 --> 00:39:01.239 to sports. 994 00:39:02.280 --> 00:39:05.570 I'm a very trusting fellow. Why don't you just hire somebody? 995 00:39:05.610 --> 00:39:06.590 You make all this money. 996 00:39:06.769 --> 00:39:11.389 On that note, someone stole our stinking Halloween basket, like 997 00:39:11.449 --> 00:39:14.199 our thing of candy, second year in a row. Yeah, 998 00:39:14.219 --> 00:39:17.179 I have two. No, I have the Google cameras. It's 999 00:39:17.400 --> 00:39:19.760 1080p from two angles. I can see the kid, and 1000 00:39:19.780 --> 00:39:22.179 I can see his two friends on the street. But, like, 1001 00:39:22.460 --> 00:39:25.550 why do people have to suck? Why can't people just 1002 00:39:25.750 --> 00:39:26.530 be good? 1003 00:39:26.570 --> 00:39:29.829 Right? You know, it's funny. It's Tuesday afternoon. 1004 00:39:30.110 --> 00:39:32.610 Drive home from work and I'm pulling in my front yard. 1005 00:39:32.650 --> 00:39:37.050 Now I got all the, I got Fazio, Owen Weaver, 1006 00:39:37.530 --> 00:39:41.340 and Visconti yard signs out for, you. 1007 00:39:41.260 --> 00:39:42.780 Know, they dropped them off the house. 1008 00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:43.880 I had Owen Weaver on the podcast. And a turkey 1009 00:39:43.889 --> 00:39:45.969 trot sign. And a turkey trot sign. Of course. 1010 00:39:46.260 --> 00:39:46.480 Yes. 1011 00:39:46.639 --> 00:39:47.059 Just checking. 1012 00:39:47.159 --> 00:39:47.659 No, no, no, no. 1013 00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:49.800 This is where the story's going. I got them all 1014 00:39:49.860 --> 00:39:55.340 for I get home and just yours is there. And 1015 00:39:55.380 --> 00:39:59.320 I'm like, wait, hold on. I see stories of like 1016 00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:02.539 Democrats robbing Republican signs just to get, you know, make 1017 00:40:02.559 --> 00:40:03.480 sure the word doesn't get out. 1018 00:40:04.619 --> 00:40:05.960 I don't want to make this show political at all. 1019 00:40:06.500 --> 00:40:10.099 But I texted Owen Weaver and I'm like, hey, I'm 1020 00:40:10.139 --> 00:40:12.159 just making sure nothing shady is going on. But all 1021 00:40:12.199 --> 00:40:14.650 your signs are gone. But the turkey trot one that 1022 00:40:14.949 --> 00:40:15.769 I that's mine. 1023 00:40:16.690 --> 00:40:18.230 And he goes– he starts laughing. 1024 00:40:18.269 --> 00:40:20.989 He's like, yeah, no, we grab them back and we 1025 00:40:21.010 --> 00:40:22.949 bring them out at the polling sites. So when you 1026 00:40:22.989 --> 00:40:24.550 go by the polling sites, which is right down the 1027 00:40:24.590 --> 00:40:27.230 street from me, JFK, and they just put them all out. 1028 00:40:27.250 --> 00:40:31.289 I said, oh, that makes sense. It's a very true– 1029 00:40:31.309 --> 00:40:32.789 you can slide to the other side and see the 1030 00:40:32.809 --> 00:40:37.650 other angle. It's very true because the same thing happened– 1031 00:40:38.360 --> 00:40:40.949 was it? two years ago was a big election i 1032 00:40:40.989 --> 00:40:41.809 forget who was in it. 1033 00:40:41.949 --> 00:40:44.010 Oh what a little fucking punk yeah he's watching the 1034 00:40:44.030 --> 00:40:46.110 video right now if you slide to the side you 1035 00:40:46.150 --> 00:40:48.760 see the other angle um but. 1036 00:40:48.679 --> 00:40:52.860 Just one if it goes to yeah uh and we 1037 00:40:52.900 --> 00:40:56.199 had signs everywhere turkey trot signs everywhere but we were 1038 00:40:56.239 --> 00:40:58.739 competing with all these political signs you were you were 1039 00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:00.630 bringing your kids around the neighborhood or yeah. 1040 00:41:00.489 --> 00:41:03.110 This was this was early this was early. 1041 00:41:02.909 --> 00:41:08.329 This was like nine no eight eight fifty It says $ 8. 1042 00:41:06.929 --> 00:41:11.010 50. Like, come on. Who just steals your basket of candy? 1043 00:41:11.409 --> 00:41:12.929 And of course it's good candy. 1044 00:41:12.650 --> 00:41:15.780 Because kids like good candy. Kids are kids. 1045 00:41:16.000 --> 00:41:17.659 I don't know. That's not a kid. That's a young 1046 00:41:17.679 --> 00:41:19.699 adult in that video. Yeah, that's a teenager. Yeah. So 1047 00:41:19.739 --> 00:41:20.739 you know what I do on Halloween? 1048 00:41:22.119 --> 00:41:22.800 Second year in a row. 1049 00:41:22.820 --> 00:41:24.559 So I'm new to the neighborhood. I've been there two 1050 00:41:24.579 --> 00:41:28.550 years now. So last year I did the candy. We 1051 00:41:28.570 --> 00:41:31.590 set up out front. And I put out a sign. 1052 00:41:31.789 --> 00:41:33.829 I don't know if you know who Steven Crowder is, 1053 00:41:33.869 --> 00:41:36.269 but He's the meme guy with, like, he's got the 1054 00:41:36.329 --> 00:41:37.989 mug and he's at a table and there's a sign 1055 00:41:38.030 --> 00:41:39.269 out front that says whatever. 1056 00:41:39.510 --> 00:41:42.690 So my sign says, it says change my mind. So 1057 00:41:42.710 --> 00:41:47.949 my

sign says Halloween is an adult holiday. 1058 00:41:48.010 --> 00:41:50.289 Change my mind. So I said, I'll do it again 1059 00:41:50.349 --> 00:41:52.530 this year. And you want the kids to convince you? 1060 00:41:52.550 --> 00:41:56.190 But this year I had all these fucking bags of 1061 00:41:56.269 --> 00:41:58.489 chips left over from the thing I had for the 1062 00:41:58.530 --> 00:41:58.869 rambling game. 1063 00:41:58.889 --> 00:42:00.369 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I did a lot of food. Like, 1064 00:42:00.389 --> 00:42:03.900 I bought boxes of chips, little bags. It's a great 1065 00:42:03.960 --> 00:42:06.679 time to clear out your pantry. Yeah. Halloween is glorious. 1066 00:42:06.719 --> 00:42:09.340 I went to Total Wine. I bought 140 nips or 1067 00:42:09.340 --> 00:42:14.039 130 nips. And I had the Halloween candy on the 1068 00:42:14.099 --> 00:42:16.500 table with the Change My Mind sign. And then I 1069 00:42:16.539 --> 00:42:19.460 had a table off to the left. And I made 1070 00:42:19.500 --> 00:42:22.739 a sign that says, Chips and Nips for Adults Only. 1071 00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:24.199 So I had a big bucket of chips. 1072 00:42:24.909 --> 00:42:28.309 And then I had Jägermeister, Fireball, all this shit. 1073 00:42:29.250 --> 00:42:31.710 I mean... I was the first one to bed because 1074 00:42:31.769 --> 00:42:33.289 everyone that came up, I had to do a nip 1075 00:42:33.309 --> 00:42:35.250 with them. My girlfriend's just handing the candy out. 1076 00:42:35.289 --> 00:42:36.150 I went to bed at like 8.30. 1077 00:42:36.150 --> 00:42:39.469 I was so fucking trashed. I hope so. Yeah. Like, jeez, 1078 00:42:39.489 --> 00:42:44.150 that's like a century hour. Oh, man. So now that's 1079 00:42:44.170 --> 00:42:44.869 what I'm known for. 1080 00:42:44.929 --> 00:42:46.550 So I got to do that every year in the neighborhood. 1081 00:42:46.849 --> 00:42:47.469 Chips and nips. 1082 00:42:47.929 --> 00:42:51.630 So this year, it's kind of sad. We've been here 1083 00:42:51.670 --> 00:42:55.349 in Connecticut since 2020. This is the first year someone 1084 00:42:55.650 --> 00:42:57.800 in our house had to stay home and watch the 1085 00:42:57.840 --> 00:43:03.510 candy because... Every year it's been bad. And we, oh, 1086 00:43:03.909 --> 00:43:04.630 that's attractive. 1087 00:43:05.409 --> 00:43:05.969 I'm coming over. 1088 00:43:07.550 --> 00:43:08.400 I'll try to make it before 8. 1089 00:43:08.380 --> 00:43:10.199 Yeah, all your shit's going to get stolen at your house, though. 1090 00:43:10.940 --> 00:43:13.050 But we had to switch off on someone staying there. And, 1091 00:43:13.099 --> 00:43:15.719 I mean, we've got two. two kids and they're 10 1092 00:43:15.719 --> 00:43:17.239 and eight now as of yesterday. 1093 00:43:17.260 --> 00:43:19.159 Right. And they want to. 1094 00:43:19.139 --> 00:43:21.659 Be with different groups, which is fine. So we're dividing 1095 00:43:21.739 --> 00:43:23.940 conquer and do whatever. And now it's like, well, Hey, 1096 00:43:23.960 --> 00:43:24.800 can you watch my kid? 1097 00:43:25.000 --> 00:43:25.280 Right. 1098 00:43:25.360 --> 00:43:27.579 Can you watch my kid? Can we watch the house? 1099 00:43:27.679 --> 00:43:31.159 And it's just unfortunate that that's even a problem because 1100 00:43:31.639 --> 00:43:34.320 when I was growing up, like that was unacceptable. If 1101 00:43:34.360 --> 00:43:36.940 you came home and dad found out that you had 1102 00:43:36.980 --> 00:43:39.860 more than one piece from a basket from the family 1103 00:43:39.900 --> 00:43:43.050 who couldn't be there, like, You were getting a good slapping. 1104 00:43:43.170 --> 00:43:44.789 I see it all over the internet. And now you're 1105 00:43:44.809 --> 00:43:47.179 saying you can go to jail for that. Oh, really? Well, 1106 00:43:48.039 --> 00:43:51.059 you know your story earlier. You slapped your kid. Oh, yeah. 1107 00:43:53.280 --> 00:43:53.800 Not you. True. 1108 00:43:53.820 --> 00:43:54.260 Not me. 1109 00:43:54.260 --> 00:43:56.219 Not you. But it's unfortunate. 1110 00:43:59.340 --> 00:44:02.179 Halloween is amazing. It's one of my favorite holidays, and 1111 00:44:02.260 --> 00:44:04.730 it's so fun. I actually hate it. 1112 00:44:05.010 --> 00:44:07.349 I hate it. Well, no, I can't say I hate Halloween. 1113 00:44:07.590 --> 00:44:08.250 I hate dressing up. 1114 00:44:08.710 --> 00:44:09.469 I just despise it. 1115 00:44:09.469 --> 00:44:10.190 I love dressing up. 1116 00:44:10.190 --> 00:44:10.739 I despise it. 1117 00:44:10.760 --> 00:44:12.980 I have three Costco bins of costumes. 1118 00:44:13.019 --> 00:44:15.699 But the fact that, like, I had so much fun 1119 00:44:15.739 --> 00:44:16.119 last year. 1120 00:44:16.139 --> 00:44:18.940 I'm in a good neighborhood. We don't get a gazillion trick-or-treaters, 1121 00:44:18.980 --> 00:44:20.670 but we probably got 60 to 80. That's not the point. 1122 00:44:21.449 --> 00:44:24.070 That's huge. Now we're getting to know the neighbors, and 1123 00:44:24.090 --> 00:44:28.170 they're bringing their spiked apple cider over, and we're doing 1124 00:44:28.210 --> 00:44:30.690 the nips and the chips and everything. We got pizzas. 1125 00:44:30.710 --> 00:44:33.880 You go to the house with the jello shots. Yeah, yeah. 1126 00:44:33.900 --> 00:44:35.079 You go to the house with the cider. 1127 00:44:35.119 --> 00:44:36.639 You go to the house with the bourbon. Now they're 1128 00:44:36.659 --> 00:44:38.519 a lot friendlier this year because I did that rambling 1129 00:44:38.599 --> 00:44:41.400 in Irish bar, so they're all over there, and I'm 1130 00:44:41.420 --> 00:44:43.079 like the cat's meow with all the neighbors. 1131 00:44:43.099 --> 00:44:45.480 You got to get your feet wet and get the invite. 1132 00:44:45.519 --> 00:44:45.840 Yeah. 1133 00:44:46.260 --> 00:44:47.969 Otherwise, you're just a random. So I don't know if 1134 00:44:47.989 --> 00:44:50.630 you've heard this. Do you have a rival? 1135

00:44:51.900 --> 00:44:55.230 For a turkey trot. Where?

And 1175 00:46:38.949 --> 00:46:41.829 his wife's helping us out with some. She's a travel agent. 1176 00:46:42.170 --> 00:46:43.969 Helping us out with some trips to Germany. Like our 1177 00:46:43.989 --> 00:46:45.909 trip to Germany. Helping us out with like, you know. 1178 00:46:46.289 --> 00:46:48.730 Getting picked up at a hotel. Sounds super incredible. 1179 00:46:48.750 --> 00:46:51.929 Yeah. Yeah, we leave a week from today. I'm pumped. 1180 00:46:52.230 --> 00:46:54.429 I'm pumped to hear about that, because I've lived in 1181 00:46:54.449 --> 00:46:57.489 Germany on two different stints. Were you ever in Munich? 1182 00:46:58.829 --> 00:47:01.369 Yeah. Yeah. We'll talk after the show. 1183 00:47:01.429 --> 00:47:04.340 But I was living in Cologne for a while, and 1184 00:47:04.380 --> 00:47:06.119 I was living in Freiburg for a while. Both trips, 1185 00:47:06.159 --> 00:47:07.860 I spent a significant amount of time in Munich. 1186 00:47:07.940 --> 00:47:10.059 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because, come on. Yeah. 1187 00:47:10.800 --> 00:47:11.880 Octoberfest. 1188 00:47:12.199 --> 00:47:14.940 So, did I do the right thing? 1189 00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:15.780 So, we booked a trip. 1190 00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:19.820 To have a private driver pick us up at our hotel, 1191 00:47:21.300 --> 00:47:26.710 take us to Austria, to Swarovski, Crystal. I guess the 1192 00:47:26.769 --> 00:47:28.809 ticket's included. We get to go in there and go 1193 00:47:28.849 --> 00:47:32.590 to their little village and all that shit. And then Innsbruck. Yep. 1194 00:47:33.190 --> 00:47:36.690 That's all Austria, right? Mm-hmm. So we're going into Austria, 1195 00:47:36.710 --> 00:47:39.239 and then it takes you to some scenic shit. Again, 1196 00:47:39.260 --> 00:47:41.260 I have never been there, so I'm not talking anything. 1197 00:47:41.900 --> 00:47:44.519 And it takes us back, but it's a full, whole-day thing. 1198 00:47:45.639 --> 00:47:47.139 It was like $ 250 a person. 1199 00:47:47.559 --> 00:47:48.349 You'll love it. 1200 00:47:48.840 --> 00:47:51.280 You'll love it. It'll be great. Now, you could have 1201 00:47:51.300 --> 00:47:54.219 done it for $ 70 a person. 1202 00:47:54.400 --> 00:47:55.239 If we just took the train. 1203 00:47:55.280 --> 00:47:57.579 But. Right. 1204 00:47:57.760 --> 00:48:00.260 I'm at the age. We like stress-free travel. I'm at 1205 00:48:00.300 --> 00:48:03.920 the age of convenience. I pay for convenience. I don't 1206 00:48:03.960 --> 00:48:07.019 give a fuck how much it costs. My last stint 1207 00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:12.730 in Germany, my wife's company flew her out there. And 1208 00:48:12.789 --> 00:48:14.780 it was a six-month. Work assignment. 1209 00:48:14.880 --> 00:48:15.199 Sorry. 1210 00:48:15.460 --> 00:48:17.000 Five months and 29 days. 1211 00:48:18.059 --> 00:48:19.900 Whatever. Yeah, yeah. 1212 00:48:20.239 --> 00:48:23.110 And they said, hey, you're

one of four people that's 1213 00:48:23.119 --> 00:48:25.030 invited on this. It's a great opportunity. She goes, great, 1214 00:48:25.070 --> 00:48:26.849 but you have to bring my family. And they said, no, no, no. 1215 00:48:26.949 --> 00:48:27.550 She said, okay, I'm out. 1216 00:48:28.150 --> 00:48:30.329 Two weeks later, they came back and said, okay, we'll 1217 00:48:30.369 --> 00:48:32.320 bring your family. She said, great, what are the details? 1218 00:48:32.800 --> 00:48:34.469 Two weeks later, they came back. Okay, here it is. 1219 00:48:34.940 --> 00:48:36.599 By then, it was too late to find anything. We 1220 00:48:36.639 --> 00:48:40.360 ended up doing, like, seven Airbnbs in six months. Our 1221 00:48:40.400 --> 00:48:45.639 kids got into an outdoor kindergarten, the definition of kindergarten, 1222 00:48:46.130 --> 00:48:49.349 where it came from. No running water, no electricity. The 1223 00:48:49.389 --> 00:48:52.090 boys pee on the vertical stick. The girls back up 1224 00:48:52.130 --> 00:48:53.210 against the horizontal stick. 1225 00:48:53.230 --> 00:48:53.409 Oh, jeez. 1226 00:48:53.429 --> 00:48:55.610 And, like, if you need to go number two, it's 1227 00:48:55.650 --> 00:48:57.989 in the outhouse. But no pee in the outhouse. Like, 1228 00:48:58.070 --> 00:48:59.320 it was intense, right? 1229 00:48:59.340 --> 00:48:59.719 Right, right. 1230 00:49:00.460 --> 00:49:01.059 Loved it. 1231 00:49:01.460 --> 00:49:04.010 The whole time, I was like, hey, we have to 1232 00:49:04.030 --> 00:49:05.090 go here. We have to go here. We have to 1233 00:49:05.119 --> 00:49:08.070 go here. So every weekend, we jumped in the company rental. Yeah. 1234 00:49:08.449 --> 00:49:11.110 And we went to Austria. We went to France. We 1235 00:49:11.130 --> 00:49:15.710 went to– It's like hopping states around there, right? There's 1236 00:49:15.769 --> 00:49:18.210 two weeks. Well, it's less than that. 1237 00:49:18.289 --> 00:49:19.969 Oh, yeah. It's like Connecticut. Right, right. 1238 00:49:20.059 --> 00:49:24.170 To California It's like Connecticut states Right, right In California, 1239 00:49:24.190 --> 00:49:24.469 I can drive. 1240 00:49:24.530 --> 00:49:25.610 It takes you two hours to get here, two hours 1241 00:49:25.630 --> 00:49:27.289 to get there. Nine hours in one direction. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1242 00:49:27.309 --> 00:49:28.969 I'm still in the same state. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1243 00:49:29.070 --> 00:49:32.389 Well, California, Texas, and all those states are a little different. Like, 1244 00:49:32.429 --> 00:49:35.829 you drive two hours in any direction, and you're in 1245 00:49:36.329 --> 00:49:36.670 two or. 1246 00:49:36.630 --> 00:49:39.780 Three different countries. Right, right, right. And it's phenomenal. Yeah. 1247 00:49:39.940 --> 00:49:43.699 And it's a different language. It's a different currency. There's 1248 00:49:43.739 --> 00:49:45.599 a lot of Euro, but not everywhere. 1249 00:49:46.880 --> 00:49:47.539 Switzerland.

1250 00:49:47.860 --> 00:49:49.840 Switzerland is something you have to hit. 1251 00:49:49.960 --> 00:49:52.699 If you have time... We don't have enough time. Okay. Okay. We... 1252 00:49:54.010 --> 00:49:56.380 we we kind of shorten it because nicole doesn't have 1253 00:49:56.400 --> 00:49:59.300 that much time to take uh i would have stayed 1254 00:49:59.320 --> 00:50:01.960 there for three weeks but she can always fly home 1255 00:50:02.659 --> 00:50:06.840 yeah right so how strong is that marriage so so 1256 00:50:06.860 --> 00:50:11.179 we fly we fly out wednesday late afternoon so we 1257 00:50:11.219 --> 00:50:14.530 get there thursday morning yeah so we made well it's 1258 00:50:14.769 --> 00:50:16.429 is that hold on we i'm going to tell you 1259 00:50:16.449 --> 00:50:19.969 my antenna it'll be real quick yeah Uh, it's going 1260 00:50:19.989 --> 00:50:21.840 to be like nine in the morning when we get there. 1261 00:50:22.139 --> 00:50:23.840 Obviously we can't check in the hotel, but we made 1262 00:50:24.059 --> 00:50:27.320 on Thursday night, our first night there reservations at little 1263 00:50:27.380 --> 00:50:29.849 London bar and grill.

Because they'll ask their backup dancers or whatever. 1280 00:51:09.780 --> 00:51:12.250 They're like, how do I say something? And they'll do 1281 00:51:12.269 --> 00:51:13.809 some broken German. Yeah. 1282 00:51:13.969 --> 00:51:15.030 And the crowd erupts. 1283 00:51:15.170 --> 00:51:16.809 And they're like, what the fuck did you just say? Yeah. 1284 00:51:17.710 --> 00:51:21.150 I'm like, oh, but Ramstein comes on stage. And then 1285 00:51:21.550 --> 00:51:24.809 Saturday we go to Austria. And then Sunday is the 1286 00:51:24.849 --> 00:51:26.989 Patriots game at like 2.30. And we're going

to make 1287 00:51:27.030 --> 00:51:29.429 another nice dinner reservation. Obviously do all the fucking. 1288 00:51:29.679 --> 00:51:30.590 Dinner after the game? 1289 00:51:31.219 --> 00:51:32.800 Well, it's a 2.30 game. Yeah. 1290 00:51:33.179 --> 00:51:35.679 So, I mean, when I say dinner, at that point 1291 00:51:35.699 --> 00:51:38.300 we're probably so drunk. Have you made one yet? Not 1292 00:51:38.340 --> 00:51:39.000 for that night, no. 1293 00:51:39.099 --> 00:51:43.699 But then we're there Monday. We have zero plans on Monday. Dinner. 1294 00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:45.039 The Ratzkeller. 1295 00:51:45.900 --> 00:51:48.960 In Munich. The rats. You just text it to me. 1296 00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:50.449 Yeah, I don't even know how to spell it. 1297 00:51:51.360 --> 00:51:55.449 I'm portraying the pronunciation on purpose. And other than that... 1298 00:51:55.409 --> 00:51:56.309 Is it bad or traditional? 1299 00:51:56.369 --> 00:51:59.289 Because my girlfriend wants traditional German food. Yeah, it's a 1300 00:51:59.610 --> 00:52:02.769 cellar underneath a main square. You just keep going down 1301 00:52:02.969 --> 00:52:07.260 and it's like stone walls and you get like a 1302 00:52:07.500 --> 00:52:08.800 chunk of meat on a bone. 1303 00:52:09.159 --> 00:52:09.360 Oh, yeah. 1304 00:52:09.380 --> 00:52:10.579 Or you get some kind of. 1305 00:52:10.579 --> 00:52:11.380 You're speaking my language. 1306 00:52:11.480 --> 00:52:14.460 Sausage and stuff all over it. 1307 00:52:14.460 --> 00:52:16.460 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely have to do it. 1308 00:52:16.469 --> 00:52:19.349 My girlfriend loves, loves fucking German food. 1309 00:52:19.550 --> 00:52:20.239 So go for it. 1310 00:52:20.469 --> 00:52:21.889 And the other thing is you have to go to 1311 00:52:21.909 --> 00:52:25.170 the Englischer Garten, which is the big, if you look 1312 00:52:25.309 --> 00:52:29.460 at Munich, there's this big green stretch around the Isator River. 1313 00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:33.460 And depending on, I mean, it's going to be pretty 1314 00:52:33.500 --> 00:52:36.119 late in November, but they'll probably still be surfing. They 1315 00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:38.639 have a certain bridge where they put a rope underneath 1316 00:52:38.679 --> 00:52:41.070 the water and they hung some stuff. So it creates 1317 00:52:41.090 --> 00:52:43.650 a natural, what do you call it, flow rider wave 1318 00:52:43.690 --> 00:52:47.050 or whatever it is. It's like a continuous forever surf wave. 1319 00:52:47.070 --> 00:52:49.400 It's going to be cold over there. I already looked. 1320 00:52:49.420 --> 00:52:50.800 They're wearing wetsuits in the summer. 1321 00:52:50.820 --> 00:52:53.960 They'll wear wetsuits. Look it up. Just look at unique surfing. 1322 00:52:54.159 --> 00:52:56.659 So we've been all over Instagram, right? So there was 1323 00:52:56.699 --> 00:53:00.949 this Instagram reel of this boat that goes down that 1324 00:53:01.010 --> 00:53:03.760 river and it has like

I don't know if it's 1325 00:53:03.780 --> 00:53:06.309 that river. There's a boat in Munich that goes down 1326 00:53:06.349 --> 00:53:09.570 this fucking river. It's not, it doesn't really go super fast, 1327 00:53:10.230 --> 00:53:14.070 but you can drink. They put like two kegs on 1328 00:53:14.110 --> 00:53:15.610 it and you just drink on the boat and we're 1329 00:53:15.630 --> 00:53:18.590 all like, we're in. But it stops like it stopped 1330 00:53:18.610 --> 00:53:20.969 last week, I think, or Halloween. It stopped for the 1331 00:53:21.030 --> 00:53:23.710 season because it gets too cold out. I'm like, I'll 1332 00:53:23.730 --> 00:53:25.889 fucking drink. I don't give a fuck how cold it is. 1333 00:53:26.090 --> 00:53:26.389 Come on. 1334 00:53:26.730 --> 00:53:32.300 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I want to visit the... They have 1335 00:53:32.429 --> 00:53:35.480 little pop-up stands that look like lemonade stands, but they're 1336 00:53:35.519 --> 00:53:38.960 selling beer. Because in Germany, there's a law that you 1337 00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:41.960 cannot use more than four ingredients in your beer. So 1338 00:53:42.000 --> 00:53:42.760 it's none of this. 1339 00:53:42.980 --> 00:53:43.519 Everything. 1340 00:53:44.059 --> 00:53:47.260 I love everything we're drinking. Illegal to make that journey. 1341 00:53:47.440 --> 00:53:50.300 It has to be pure. How's the Jager there? 1342 00:53:50.539 --> 00:53:51.340 Is it different than here? 1343 00:53:53.000 --> 00:53:54.739 It's cold, and it's great. 1344 00:53:55.500 --> 00:53:57.460 I don't know if it's different or not, because I 1345 00:53:57.480 --> 00:53:59.280 had very little, but I focused on the beer. 1346 00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:00.800 Yeah, the beer. 1347 00:54:00.889 --> 00:54:03.769 My buddy that's coming with me is like, you better 1348 00:54:03.789 --> 00:54:05.130 be ready to drink beer. You know me, I'm not 1349 00:54:05.150 --> 00:54:06.650 a big beer drinker, but I'm like, I'll drink beer, 1350 00:54:06.690 --> 00:54:10.050 but they have liquor there.

Yeah, I do want to do one 1401 00:56:03.389 --> 00:56:05.730 of the Third Reich or Adolf Hitler spots. 1402 00:56:07.349 --> 00:56:07.889 The castle. 1403 00:56:08.130 --> 00:56:09.010 The castle, right?

1404 00:56:09.030 --> 00:56:10.469 I don't know how to get there. I've never made 1405 00:56:10.510 --> 00:56:11.909 it because it's always been on my list. 1406 00:56:12.030 --> 00:56:12.349 Yeah. 1407 00:56:12.610 --> 00:56:16.369 But if you do the double-decker bus, which is super touristy. So, again, 1408 00:56:16.409 --> 00:56:18.949 Monday we have a totally free day. We have nothing planned. 1409 00:56:18.969 --> 00:56:22.280 Do the bus. Yeah, okay. It's so touristy. It's so cliche. 1410 00:56:22.300 --> 00:56:23.820 This is fine, but. But it's so great. 1411 00:56:24.039 --> 00:56:25.679 I did that in Chicago. The boat. 1412 00:56:26.019 --> 00:56:27.639 When I was living over there and I would travel, 1413 00:56:27.719 --> 00:56:29.639 I was never in the same country for more than 1414 00:56:29.659 --> 00:56:30.380 four days in a row. 1415 00:56:30.400 --> 00:56:32.460 Yeah. For a year. Yeah. Really? 1416 00:56:32.800 --> 00:56:34.679 And every time I went to a new country, I 1417 00:56:35.039 --> 00:56:36.969 would always jump on the double-decker bus as soon as 1418 00:56:37.010 --> 00:56:38.090 a meeting was done or as soon as I had 1419 00:56:38.110 --> 00:56:40.760 a break. You put the speaker on, you figure out 1420 00:56:40.780 --> 00:56:43.739 which flag is American, and you put the British, and 1421 00:56:43.760 --> 00:56:46.440 you push it, and you learn so much in a 1422 00:56:46.500 --> 00:56:49.860 two-hour bus ride. It just goes around the city. 1423 00:56:49.900 --> 00:56:50.920 It goes around, and you're. 1424 00:56:50.820 --> 00:56:56.039 Like, Barcelona, talking about the Gadi district, talking about the Familia, 1425 00:56:56.119 --> 00:57:00.980 Sagrada Familia, talking about how this region has changed from, 1426 00:57:01.219 --> 00:57:02.639 it used to be the poor people that lived here, 1427 00:57:02.679 --> 00:57:04.949 but now it's the rich people, and like, So much 1428 00:57:04.989 --> 00:57:05.469 cool stuff. 1429 00:57:05.530 --> 00:57:05.750 Yeah. 1430 00:57:05.829 --> 00:57:16.150 Berlin has more bridges than, um, what's the, the Italian, I, shoot, 1431 00:57:16.190 --> 00:57:17.349 I did the bus in both cities. 1432 00:57:17.809 --> 00:57:18.329 In Florence? 1433 00:57:18.750 --> 00:57:21.010 Not Florence. The other one that's more. 1434 00:57:21.030 --> 00:57:21.969 Not Rome. 1435 00:57:22.409 --> 00:57:25.719 Not Rome, but like the, the one that's an island 1436 00:57:25.739 --> 00:57:27.789 and it sinks all the time. Oh, uh. 1437 00:57:28.269 --> 00:57:29.250 Whatever. Yeah. 1438 00:57:29.389 --> 00:57:32.010 But, like, to think that Berlin has more bridges. 1439 00:57:32.090 --> 00:57:35.010 The whiskey's talking right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just 1440 00:57:35.050 --> 00:57:38.599 so fun. It's so fun. I love it. Yeah, I'm 1441 00:57:38.619 --> 00:57:40.400 really looking forward to it. Like, we, uh. 1442 00:57:40.480 --> 00:57:42.099 It's also 20-plus years ago, so. 1443 00:57:42.340 --> 00:57:45.199 Yeah, no, no, no, no. I'm sure, yeah. And they 1444 00:57:45.219 --> 00:57:48.360 started doing their protests in Frankfurt, so they'll probably be 1445 00:57:48.400 --> 00:57:51.039 there during... Actually, this is what I was chatting PT 1446 00:57:51.119 --> 00:57:53.630 in the other night when they started asking me for money. 1447 00:57:54.409 --> 00:57:58.179 I was like, hey... I'm traveling to Germany, Munich. I'm 1448 00:57:58.199 --> 00:58:03.829 staying at Munich City East Courtyard Marriott. You know, do 1449 00:58:04.769 --> 00:58:08.070 I have to worry about these current riots slash protests 1450 00:58:08.429 --> 00:58:12.050 in Germany? And they're like, they literally wrote me like, well, 1451 00:58:12.110 --> 00:58:14.269 if you're staying over there, you're probably pretty good. They 1452 00:58:14.289 --> 00:58:16.230 say to avoid downtown. And then I just started getting 1453 00:58:16.250 --> 00:58:18.409 all this stuff like, do the Patriots have a fan fest? 1454 00:58:18.469 --> 00:58:19.760 And this and that, blah, blah, blah. And then they 1455 00:58:19.780 --> 00:58:21.260 finally just shut me off. Like, well, you need to 1456 00:58:21.300 --> 00:58:24.539 pay me money now because your 24 hours of like 1457 00:58:24.619 --> 00:58:26.820 five questions is up. And I'm like, son of a bitch. 1458 00:58:27.460 --> 00:58:31.179 But you're right next to the train station. Yes, I 1459 00:58:31.219 --> 00:58:31.659 know that. 1460 00:58:32.019 --> 00:58:33.880 And I'm kind of a little pissed that I booked 1461 00:58:33.920 --> 00:58:41.429 this trip because I could have. So Swarovski. Their Christmas 1462 00:58:41.550 --> 00:58:47.429 village starts Wednesday, the 11th, the day we fly out. 1463 00:58:47.969 --> 00:58:51.309 So they'll have it there. And this whole trip, again, 1464 00:58:51.389 --> 00:58:53.730 I don't have to get on public transportation, but we 1465 00:58:53.750 --> 00:58:55.889 can definitely that Monday take a train wherever. 1466 00:58:55.670 --> 00:58:56.989 The hell we want to, too. 1467 00:58:57.269 --> 00:58:59.170 Yeah, you can have a lot of fun. 1468 00:58:59.360 --> 00:59:00.050 It'll be a good time. 1469 00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:00.780 It'll be good. 1470 00:59:00.909 --> 00:59:02.820 I'm not a public transport guy, though, but I know 1471 00:59:02.880 --> 00:59:05.599 it's different over there. It's completely different. So you get 1472 00:59:05.639 --> 00:59:09.239 a bond card, and you get a 10 pass, and 1473 00:59:09.300 --> 00:59:13.039 you spend 30 euros, and you can jump on any 1474 00:59:13.039 --> 00:59:16.320 10 trains you want in the next 60 days. 1475 00:59:16.800 --> 00:59:17.360 It's unreal. 1476 00:59:17.530 --> 00:59:19.769 And the difference there is that you don't have to 1477 00:59:19.829 --> 00:59:22.530 look at the MTA app and say, oh, if I 1478 00:59:22.570 --> 00:59:24.809 leave here, it's going to take an hour. If I 1479 00:59:24.869 --> 00:59:26.650 leave here, it's

going to take an hour and a half. No, 1480 00:59:26.670 --> 00:59:28.619 you just show up. And there's going to be a 1481 00:59:28.639 --> 00:59:29.619 train in the next three minutes. 1482 00:59:29.840 --> 00:59:30.059 Right. 1483 00:59:30.179 --> 00:59:31.380 And it's going to get you there in eight minutes. 1484 00:59:31.400 --> 00:59:34.489 It's just always constantly flowing. It's nonstop because their density 1485 00:59:34.530 --> 00:59:35.650 is so much better than us. 1486 00:59:35.690 --> 00:59:36.030 Yeah. 1487 00:59:36.329 --> 00:59:38.849 And people accept it because you can't own a car. 1488 00:59:39.269 --> 00:59:39.429 Right. 1489 00:59:39.469 --> 00:59:41.250 The amount of people that live that close together. 1490 00:59:41.269 --> 00:59:44.530 I don't know the statistics, but most of them don't 1491 00:59:44.570 --> 00:59:46.349 have cars. You can't. 1492 00:59:47.150 --> 00:59:48.239 It's like Manhattan. 1493 00:59:48.320 --> 00:59:50.300 Yeah. Not everyone can own a car. Right. 1494 00:59:51.000 --> 00:59:52.340 They shouldn't have any cars in Manhattan. 1495 00:59:52.360 --> 00:59:52.460 Right. 1496 00:59:53.050 --> 00:59:56.809 That would be delightful. And then there should be a bridge. 1497 00:59:57.050 --> 00:59:58.489 There should be a bridge that goes over it so 1498 00:59:58.530 --> 01:00:02.159 I can get to Newark faster. But make a really 1499 01:00:02.219 --> 01:00:06.079 good public transportation system other than the subways and the bullshit. 1500 01:00:06.099 --> 01:00:10.059 You just asked for too much. I hope in my 1501 01:00:10.099 --> 01:00:12.219 lifetime I see the bridge that goes to Long Island. 1502 01:00:12.280 --> 01:00:14.769 I think that would be cool as fuck. Is that 1503 01:00:14.849 --> 01:00:16.989 something that's on the list? There is some billionaire developer 1504 01:00:17.030 --> 01:00:21.570 talking about it. What's the span? Probably at least 10 miles? 1505 01:00:23.050 --> 01:00:25.429 I mean, it also gets to be, what, 300 feet 1506 01:00:25.530 --> 01:00:27.429 deep in the middle? Like I said, I'm 52. I 1507 01:00:27.449 --> 01:00:28.989 don't think I'll see it in my lifetime. They can't 1508 01:00:29.010 --> 01:00:32.059 be floating pillars, can they? No, no, no. 1509 01:00:32.139 --> 01:00:34.739 They've got to go down. Yeah, yeah. So that would 1510 01:00:34.800 --> 01:00:37.119 be an interesting engineering challenge. 1511 01:00:37.159 --> 01:00:40.380 It took them over 30-something years just to do the 1512 01:00:40.500 --> 01:00:43.250 big dig in Boston. And it's still not 100%. 1513 01:00:43.250 --> 01:00:45.590 You know what would be fascinating is if you could 1514 01:00:45.630 --> 01:00:47.710 build a floating road. 1515 01:00:48.070 --> 01:00:48.309 Yeah. 1516 01:00:48.650 --> 01:00:52.710 So for some... 10-mile stretch, you don't have to actually 1517 01:00:52.750 --> 01:00:53.469 do foundations. 1518 01:00:53.789 --> 01:00:55.010 Whatever. I'm not an engineer. 1519 01:00:55.030 --> 01:00:56.329 I'm just a professional. 1520 01:00:56.349 --> 01:01:01.150 We just get too many storms up here, though. Yeah. Yeah. 1521 01:01:01.530 --> 01:01:03.550 Any hurricane that comes up, we're screwed. 1522 01:01:03.710 --> 01:01:04.570 Yeah, we're screwed. 1523 01:01:04.809 --> 01:01:07.909 Not that we get big butt. If a Sandy came, 1524 01:01:08.329 --> 01:01:09.530 we're screwed. 1525 01:01:09.710 --> 01:01:10.989 Or whatever that Nor'easter was. 1526 01:01:11.550 --> 01:01:14.449 That Nor'easter did some serious stuff around town, and we 1527 01:01:14.469 --> 01:01:15.309 didn't even get hit hard. 1528 01:01:15.469 --> 01:01:19.030 I was supposed to have the Milford Little League. 1529 01:01:18.320 --> 01:01:19.639 Golf tournament that. 1530 01:01:20.489 --> 01:01:21.929 Tuesday? The storm? 1531 01:01:22.489 --> 01:01:24.960 That's what it was. It was the Oktoberfest. They could 1532 01:01:24.980 --> 01:01:26.900 do Friday night. They canceled Saturday. 1533 01:01:26.940 --> 01:01:27.900 Yes, yes, yes. 1534 01:01:27.920 --> 01:01:30.530 They canceled Saturday. Sunday was horrid. 1535 01:01:31.010 --> 01:01:31.230 Yep. 1536 01:01:31.510 --> 01:01:33.849 Monday was recovery slash a little bit of drizzle. 1537 01:01:33.969 --> 01:01:34.150 Yep. 1538 01:01:34.510 --> 01:01:37.860 I was supposed to play Tuesday and Fairchild Wheeler called 1539 01:01:38.239 --> 01:01:40.360 on Monday and said, hey, we know it's not raining 1540 01:01:40.389 --> 01:01:43.539 today and it's not going to rain tomorrow. But we're flooded. 1541 01:01:43.579 --> 01:01:47.840 We lost trees. Maybe it's going to be walking only Wednesday. 1542 01:01:48.099 --> 01:01:48.400 Maybe. 1543 01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:52.300 But we're absolutely not open tomorrow. And I said, well, guys, 1544 01:01:52.320 --> 01:01:52.760 this sucks. 1545 01:01:54.460 --> 01:01:55.639 So what do I do? 1546 01:01:57.199 --> 01:01:57.739 Oh, man. 1547 01:01:57.760 --> 01:01:58.739 All right. 1548 01:01:58.760 --> 01:02:00.820 I was going to get into a little politics because 1549 01:02:01.619 --> 01:02:02.139 last night. 1550 01:02:02.199 --> 01:02:05.539 Why not? I don't really want to know. I want 1551 01:02:05.559 --> 01:02:07.429 to ask you about the plane that went down in Florida. 1552 01:02:08.239 --> 01:02:10.389 What do you think about that? I know nothing about it. 1553 01:02:10.389 --> 01:02:13.969 Give me some details. Are you really off the grid? 1554 01:02:14.070 --> 01:02:18.349 I told you before this started. My daughter is awesome. 1555 01:02:18.449 --> 01:02:23.159 She just turned eight yesterday. And she does soccer and 1556 01:02:23.400 --> 01:02:29.539 basketball and runs my life. My son plays baseball on 1557 01:02:29.599 --> 01:02:34.260 too many teams. Already started basketball. We haven't finished baseball yet. Well, 1558 01:02:34.280 --> 01:02:37.309 we finished baseball on Monday. Super cool game. 1559 01:02:37.349 --> 01:02:38.530 They all wore their

costumes. 1560 01:02:38.849 --> 01:02:40.829 That's cute. So fun. That's cute. 1561 01:02:41.949 --> 01:02:45.730 And I swear it's eight days a week. We have 1562 01:02:46.050 --> 01:02:46.369 two events. 1563 01:02:46.409 --> 01:02:47.210 I get it. I get it. 1564 01:02:47.230 --> 01:02:49.800 So as I said, I don't watch the news. I 1565 01:02:49.840 --> 01:02:53.059 don't watch TV. I'm lucky to figure out if I 1566 01:02:53.079 --> 01:02:55.079 can start Game of Thrones Season 3 soon. 1567 01:02:56.460 --> 01:03:00.119 I don't even know when that was. We watched Crystal Lake. 1568 01:03:02.039 --> 01:03:07.179 So Crystal Lake is a prequel show on Netflix about 1569 01:03:07.340 --> 01:03:11.650 Friday the 13th. Oh, really? Yeah. Actually, very good. But 1570 01:03:11.690 --> 01:03:15.690 I was so tired on Tuesday night or Monday night. 1571 01:03:15.750 --> 01:03:17.090 Is it coming out now? No, it's out. 1572 01:03:17.150 --> 01:03:19.090 It's out. You can watch all eight episodes. 1573 01:03:19.110 --> 01:03:20.250 It's out now. Oh, okay. 1574 01:03:20.289 --> 01:03:22.989 But it's newer this year. Oh, it just came out 1575 01:03:23.110 --> 01:03:24.150 like two weeks ago. 1576 01:03:24.250 --> 01:03:25.489 Got it. Very good. 1577 01:03:25.530 --> 01:03:27.260 If you like to gore and you grew up on 1578 01:03:27.280 --> 01:03:27.800 that kind of shit. 1579 01:03:27.860 --> 01:03:34.610 You're 10 years beyond my Netflix queue. So anyway, so 1580 01:03:34.650 --> 01:03:39.320 this Learjet 60 takes off from Texas to go to 1581 01:03:39.340 --> 01:03:42.199 the Bahamas. This is real life. This is real life. Okay. 1582 01:03:42.639 --> 01:03:43.849 And I can't believe it. 1583 01:03:43.880 --> 01:03:44.619 From Texas. 1584 01:03:44.780 --> 01:03:45.360 From Texas. 1585 01:03:45.480 --> 01:03:48.280 That's a short flight. Yeah, to the Bahamas is short. 1586 01:03:49.219 --> 01:03:51.670 And they get to about where my mom lives in Florida, 1587 01:03:51.849 --> 01:03:53.150 about the Fort Myers area. 1588 01:03:54.489 --> 01:03:57.570 And there's all these storms popping up, like reds and 1589 01:03:57.630 --> 01:03:58.349 yellow storms. 1590 01:03:58.369 --> 01:04:01.010 But you'd go above it. Isn't that the concept of 1591 01:04:01.090 --> 01:04:06.219 an airplane? They flew through one, and then they asked 1592 01:04:06.260 --> 01:04:09.940 the flight control, whoever they're talking to, ground control, we're 1593 01:04:09.960 --> 01:04:11.860 going to rise up to 37,000 feet and try to 1594 01:04:11.880 --> 01:04:15.659 get over it. And next thing you know, so there 1595 01:04:15.699 --> 01:04:19.889 was a 20-year-old co-pilot. She was a young girl. And 1596 01:04:20.090 --> 01:04:21.610 there was the pilot. I hadn't heard much about him. 1597 01:04:21.670 --> 01:04:24.460 And there was like, four really rich people on the 1598 01:04:24.519 --> 01:04:27.679 fucking thing with their fucking kids right no it's a 1599 01:04:27.719 --> 01:04:31.800 two million dollar plane and it's a buy not to 1600 01:04:31.860 --> 01:04:34.550 mention it's a million to pay gas for and all 1601 01:04:34.590 --> 01:04:40.989 that this fucking plane just ended up nose diving at 1602 01:04:40.989 --> 01:04:45.309 585 miles an hour into a rural street in florida 1603 01:04:45.489 --> 01:04:46.239 how many lived. 1604 01:04:47.820 --> 01:04:50.099 Sorry on the ground everybody. 1605 01:04:49.679 --> 01:04:53.690 Too soon So this is one of those, you know, 1606 01:04:53.829 --> 01:04:57.969 I'm a conspiracy guy. Everyone's fucking texting me and asking 1607 01:04:57.989 --> 01:05:00.820 me about it. And I said, you know. That's how 1608 01:05:00.860 --> 01:05:02.460 you knew. It wasn't because it was in the news. 1609 01:05:02.559 --> 01:05:05.340 It's because people text you. No, I go on Twitter 1610 01:05:05.360 --> 01:05:07.159 all the time. This is where I see all my shit. 1611 01:05:07.199 --> 01:05:09.800 That is the news now. Another failure. Okay. Failure. So. 1612 01:05:12.880 --> 01:05:15.079 I actually said to a lot of my friends, you know, 1613 01:05:15.139 --> 01:05:18.179 sometimes planes just fucking crash. You know, there's nothing. There's 1614 01:05:18.199 --> 01:05:19.690 no conspiracy behind it. 1615 01:05:20.139 --> 01:05:21.739 You know, you said I said this. 1616 01:05:22.000 --> 01:05:25.079 I'm like, because I see the videos and people are 1617 01:05:25.099 --> 01:05:26.420 because it was near Mar-a-Lago. 1618 01:05:26.579 --> 01:05:28.739 So it happened near Trump's fucking house. 1619 01:05:28.880 --> 01:05:31.559 So you're thinking it's like, no, I'm not thinking people 1620 01:05:31.599 --> 01:05:35.380 are thinking that. OK, this is this because it fucking 1621 01:05:35.400 --> 01:05:39.739 landed so fast and there's no debris. Everything disintegrated. So 1622 01:05:39.760 --> 01:05:43.019 my girlfriend's texting me from work. What's up with this jet? 1623 01:05:43.539 --> 01:05:45.719 So now I'm like, all right, fuck it. I'll play 1624 01:05:45.760 --> 01:05:49.820 the conspiracy theorist. Two planes flew into the World Trade 1625 01:05:49.840 --> 01:05:54.030 Center towers, right? Filled with fucking gas. The whole thing collapsed. 1626 01:05:54.090 --> 01:05:56.210 I don't care what you think about it. That's the 1627 01:05:56.250 --> 01:05:59.329 story they told us. And yet they found one of 1628 01:05:59.349 --> 01:06:01.449 the hijackers' passports. 1629 01:06:00.929 --> 01:06:01.429 In the rubble. 1630 01:06:02.130 --> 01:06:02.449 Okay? 1631 01:06:03.389 --> 01:06:05.349 She's like, oh, I didn't think about that. 1632 01:06:06.010 --> 01:06:09.360 I go, so... You're telling me that this plane at 1633 01:06:09.360 --> 01:06:11.710 600 miles an hour flew into the ground and you 1634 01:06:11.750 --> 01:06:14.610 can't even discern anything from the plane. It's all gone. 1635 01:06:15.969 --> 01:06:17.469 And there's no human bones. 1636 01:06:17.510 --> 01:06:20.730 There's

no teeth. There's no nothing. But they found a 1637 01:06:20.769 --> 01:06:24.039 passport and kind of the same kind of thing. They 1638 01:06:24.059 --> 01:06:26.559 weren't flying as fast, but they had more gas than 1639 01:06:26.579 --> 01:06:29.690 this plane did. So I just get her going. 1640 01:06:30.050 --> 01:06:32.730 She's like, no, she works with a bunch of like... 1641 01:06:32.570 --> 01:06:33.280 You're an asshole. 1642 01:06:34.500 --> 01:06:38.239 You are a genuine, certified asshole. But I love it. 1643 01:06:38.380 --> 01:06:41.010 But I'm like, you know, she's like, she works with 1644 01:06:41.050 --> 01:06:41.590 a bunch of like. 1645 01:06:42.329 --> 01:06:43.550 You could have said anything. 1646 01:06:44.469 --> 01:06:47.369 You know three of the hijackers survived? 1647 01:06:47.389 --> 01:06:50.880 I can manipulate her. She's awesome. 1648 01:06:51.400 --> 01:06:52.639 She always comes in. 1649 01:06:52.659 --> 01:06:53.760 She works with a lot of liberals. 1650 01:06:53.820 --> 01:06:56.539 It is what it is. I'm not being political. She 1651 01:06:57.960 --> 01:07:01.429 also works with a lot of conspiracy theorists. She'll text 1652 01:07:01.449 --> 01:07:03.090 me once a day about what do you think about this? 1653 01:07:03.110 --> 01:07:05.670 What do you think about that? Sometimes I give my 1654 01:07:05.710 --> 01:07:08.550 honest answer. Sometimes I give an answer that a conspiracy 1655 01:07:08.570 --> 01:07:10.710 theorist would give. I'm still level-headed. 1656 01:07:10.750 --> 01:07:12.409 I'm like, I've seen the videos. 1657 01:07:12.739 --> 01:07:14.900 It looks like a fucking Learjet flying into the ground 1658 01:07:14.940 --> 01:07:17.340 at 600 miles an hour. Like, if you slow-mo, because 1659 01:07:17.380 --> 01:07:19.119 it's on, like, a dash cam. I'll show you the 1660 01:07:19.139 --> 01:07:22.000 video after the show. And I'm like, but, you know, 1661 01:07:22.239 --> 01:07:24.460 I'll tweak them. Because I know who she works with. 1662 01:07:24.500 --> 01:07:26.460 I'm like, I'll tweak them. Fuck them. Fuck them. 1663 01:07:26.500 --> 01:07:27.900 Yeah, let's have her say something. 1664 01:07:27.920 --> 01:07:28.780 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 1665 01:07:29.400 --> 01:07:32.420 So, yeah, it's just a lot. And then the elections 1666 01:07:32.460 --> 01:07:34.820 last night, the blue wave came. 1667 01:07:35.809 --> 01:07:36.670 So all the blue-haired. 1668 01:07:36.829 --> 01:07:38.309 Was that unexpected on your part? 1669 01:07:38.349 --> 01:07:38.409 No. 1670 01:07:39.699 --> 01:07:43.480 Well, it was to an extent expected. I didn't think 1671 01:07:43.500 --> 01:07:44.480 it would be as bad as it was. 1672 01:07:45.059 --> 01:07:48.019 Texas turning blue, whoever saw that in their lifetime, been 1673 01:07:48.039 --> 01:07:50.639 like 70-something years. 1674 01:07:50.739 --> 01:07:52.440 Florida was closed. They kept it. 1675 01:07:53.860 --> 01:07:56.619 But I think it was just like Connecticut

is blue, 1676 01:07:56.840 --> 01:07:59.710 but it got really blue, which was disappointing to me. 1677 01:08:00.090 --> 01:08:01.150 More so in what way? 1678 01:08:02.860 --> 01:08:09.059 More state senators more local politicians you know flip the seats. 1679 01:08:09.239 --> 01:08:12.880 Obviously Lamont won you know it's just. 1680 01:08:14.900 --> 01:08:17.760 What I hate is everything's tied to Trump and again 1681 01:08:17.779 --> 01:08:19.979 I used to be a big Trumper I'm just a 1682 01:08:20.020 --> 01:08:23.779 Trumper now he's got two years left he's gone don't 1683 01:08:23.810 --> 01:08:25.689 have to listen to him anymore he was never a 1684 01:08:25.729 --> 01:08:27.289 diplomatic person do you think he's really gone? 1685 01:08:28.430 --> 01:08:29.329 He can't run again. 1686 01:08:30.670 --> 01:08:33.520 He won't say that Yeah, but he says that to 1687 01:08:33.600 --> 01:08:37.680 fuck with the fucking people asking him. He can't. It's literally, 1688 01:08:37.979 --> 01:08:41.399 you'd have to change laws. And now we don't own those. 1689 01:08:41.920 --> 01:08:44.050 We don't own the Senate or the fucking Congress to 1690 01:08:44.090 --> 01:08:46.949 change them. So if he really wanted to, he would 1691 01:08:46.970 --> 01:08:48.529 have done it in the last two years. He's 80 1692 01:08:48.529 --> 01:08:48.949 years old. 1693 01:08:48.989 --> 01:08:49.670 I don't think. 1694 01:08:49.689 --> 01:08:55.010 I think his biggest legacy he wants is dismantling Iran. 1695 01:08:55.050 --> 01:08:58.329 And this is what's costing us right now. Is dismantling Iran, 1696 01:08:58.369 --> 01:08:59.869 making sure they have no nukes and there are no 1697 01:09:00.260 --> 01:09:02.340 a player in this terrorist game. I think that is 1698 01:09:02.380 --> 01:09:06.600 his legacy he wants. By him doing that in his 1699 01:09:06.640 --> 01:09:11.340 second term, he has caused gas prices to go up, 1700 01:09:11.500 --> 01:09:14.020 not as high as the Biden era, but he's caused 1701 01:09:14.050 --> 01:09:15.770 them to go up, and Biden didn't have, by the way, 1702 01:09:15.810 --> 01:09:18.569 an Iran war going on, or the Straits of Hormuz closed. 1703 01:09:19.699 --> 01:09:24.649 And the gas prices were still high. But it's become his, like, 1704 01:09:24.659 --> 01:09:26.060 I don't know. 1705 01:09:26.100 --> 01:09:26.899 It's hard to explain. 1706 01:09:26.970 --> 01:09:29.310 But I just feel like he put all his eggs 1707 01:09:29.350 --> 01:09:33.310 in one basket on this Iran stuff. And it unfortunately 1708 01:09:33.390 --> 01:09:37.710 affected the whole country into local politics. Because people, like, 1709 01:09:38.109 --> 01:09:40.850 TDS is a real thing. People really hate him so much. 1710 01:09:41.310 --> 01:09:44.250 It doesn't matter who's on the ballot. What's TDS? 1711 01:09:44.970 --> 01:09:46.210 Trump derangement syndrome. 1712 01:09:46.869 --> 01:09:47.670 I've never heard that. 1713 01:09:47.789 --> 01:09:51.239 People hate Trump so much. That doesn't matter what's going on. 1714 01:09:51.270 --> 01:09:52.970 Doesn't matter what's going on. They're going to vote blue. 1715 01:09:52.989 --> 01:09:54.289 That makes sense. They're going to vote blue. 1716 01:09:55.109 --> 01:09:55.989 And I wish the state had. 1717 01:09:55.970 --> 01:09:58.670 A local politics. Well, we talked about the average American. Yeah. Yeah, right, right. 1718 01:09:58.689 --> 01:10:00.430 We talked about it on the show. 1719 01:10:00.449 --> 01:10:02.350 If you want to bring it up now, go ahead. 1720 01:10:02.510 --> 01:10:06.560 Doesn't take much. No. So these are my thoughts. 1721 01:10:06.729 --> 01:10:07.520 It's not your thoughts. 1722 01:10:07.539 --> 01:10:10.220 These are mine. I just think the Iran war is 1723 01:10:10.279 --> 01:10:15.680 what really flipped the states blue again. 1724 01:10:16.100 --> 01:10:17.140 Is it a war now? 1725 01:10:19.100 --> 01:10:20.279 I know we've lost a lot of people. They'll label 1726 01:10:20.300 --> 01:10:21.260 it a war. It's not. 1727 01:10:21.319 --> 01:10:23.239 It's a conflict. It's not. 1728 01:10:23.619 --> 01:10:27.039 There's no troops on the ground. There's no troops on 1729 01:10:27.060 --> 01:10:30.840 the ground. It's just open the fucking straight. Get rid 1730 01:10:30.859 --> 01:10:32.699 of your nukes. You haven't done it. We're going to 1731 01:10:32.739 --> 01:10:33.420 kill your leaders. 1732 01:10:34.260 --> 01:10:36.380 I don't know. Vietnam was never really a war. That 1733 01:10:36.399 --> 01:10:37.619 has to be the worst, right? 1734 01:10:37.880 --> 01:10:41.310 Right. Like the worst. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, 1735 01:10:41.430 --> 01:10:44.130 Ukraine and fucking Russia are still at war. And that 1736 01:10:44.149 --> 01:10:48.060 started when Biden took over. So they're on six years now. Like.... 1737 01:10:49.880 --> 01:10:51.960 But that's still not a war to us, is it? 1738 01:10:52.149 --> 01:10:52.779 To us, no. 1739 01:10:52.819 --> 01:10:55.970 That's their war, not ours. We fucking gave them a shitload. 1740 01:10:56.010 --> 01:10:59.090 We spent billions of our tax money on it. But 1741 01:10:59.130 --> 01:11:04.890 that's okay. This world will never be at peace, ever. 1742 01:11:05.789 --> 01:11:08.250 It just never will. Why do people have to suck? 1743 01:11:09.350 --> 01:11:10.689 I don't know. Why can't we just be nice? I 1744 01:11:10.720 --> 01:11:13.779 don't get it. It's like that guy who stole my 1745 01:11:14.739 --> 01:11:18.899 fucking damn candy bucket. No, but I mean that in sincerity. 1746 01:11:19.380 --> 01:11:22.399 I know what you mean. Why do people have to suck? 1747 01:11:22.560 --> 01:11:25.220 Why do you not think about other people before you 1748 01:11:25.239 --> 01:11:25.899 make actions? 1749 01:11:25.979 --> 01:11:27.680 Seven deadly sins, you know? 1750 01:11:28.729 --> 01:11:29.359 It really is. 1751 01:11:29.390 --> 01:11:32.470 Power, money, lust, gluttony. 1752

01:11:32.970 --> 01:11:35.390 Sounds so nice. Yeah. Can you imagine? Maybe we should 1753 01:11:35.430 --> 01:11:38.590 watch Seven tonight when I get home. All the cheesecake 1754 01:11:38.869 --> 01:11:41.750 I could ever want. You know what my secret is? 1755 01:11:42.109 --> 01:11:46.750 It's actually French silk pie. French silk pie? Yeah. 1756 01:11:46.829 --> 01:11:48.329 My wife made it for. 1757 01:11:48.229 --> 01:11:50.569 Me for my birthday. Oh, wow. Because I never get 1758 01:11:50.609 --> 01:11:52.329 to touch it any other time in the year. And 1759 01:11:52.369 --> 01:11:53.930 she made it for my birthday a couple years ago. 1760 01:11:53.949 --> 01:11:58.029 She's like, is this really what you enjoy? I loved it. 1761 01:11:58.159 --> 01:11:58.739 I ate the whole thing. 1762 01:11:58.920 --> 01:11:59.880 Let's switch tunes a little bit. 1763 01:12:00.020 --> 01:12:00.779 All right. 1764 01:12:00.800 --> 01:12:03.579 You're on death row, right? And you get your last meal. 1765 01:12:04.060 --> 01:12:06.600 Oh, I've seen these Twitters. I already know what your 1766 01:12:06.619 --> 01:12:08.119 dessert is. What's your last meal? 1767 01:12:08.979 --> 01:12:13.100 A Costco ribeye that I get to cook with, I'm 1768 01:12:13.140 --> 01:12:15.420 going to mess up the name, but it's the same 1769 01:12:15.659 --> 01:12:20.430 seasoning that comes at Costco, steak seasoning from, what is 1770 01:12:20.489 --> 01:12:21.449 the brand that they have? 1771 01:12:21.470 --> 01:12:21.949 Kinder? Kinder. 1772 01:12:22.949 --> 01:12:24.699 Not Kinder. That's like healthy. 1773 01:12:25.220 --> 01:12:26.460 Oh. Whatever. Yeah. 1774 01:12:26.579 --> 01:12:27.859 Like it's just all salt. 1775 01:12:28.119 --> 01:12:31.220 Yeah. Just all salt. But I have to tell you, 1776 01:12:31.380 --> 01:12:34.680 I can cook one hell of a ribeye from Cosby. 1777 01:12:34.720 --> 01:12:37.300 Not the thin cut junk. Yeah. Not the one that 1778 01:12:37.319 --> 01:12:38.399 you buy in the full wall. 1779 01:12:38.439 --> 01:12:39.380 You got to slice it yourself. 1780 01:12:39.399 --> 01:12:42.079 Yeah. No. I want like the thick cut from their butchers. 1781 01:12:42.140 --> 01:12:44.479 They do the great job. The marbleization. 1782 01:12:45.279 --> 01:12:45.859 And you know what? 1783 01:12:46.159 --> 01:12:47.659 I just cooked three of them. 1784 01:12:49.539 --> 01:12:50.699 What is it today? Wednesday? 1785 01:12:50.739 --> 01:12:52.420 That must have been Thursday last week. 1786 01:12:52.659 --> 01:12:52.880 Yeah. 1787 01:12:52.899 --> 01:12:53.699 Oh, God, it was so good. 1788 01:12:53.819 --> 01:12:54.039 Nice. 1789 01:12:54.079 --> 01:12:56.020 I cooked three of them. My wife and I had 1790 01:12:56.060 --> 01:12:56.859 three quarters of one. 1791 01:12:58.760 --> 01:13:02.600 The rest go in a glass Tupperware in the fridge, and. 1792 01:13:02.539 --> 01:13:04.060 That's my lunch next week. 1793 01:13:04.260 --> 01:13:06.760 He makes steak sandwiches out of it the whole night. Oh, 1794 01:13:06.859 --> 01:13:09.760 we've got a lot of... This is... I'm going to 1795 01:13:09.779 --> 01:13:11.060 go on a tangent. I don't know if you want 1796 01:13:11.079 --> 01:13:14.060 this or not. Go ahead. I bought a Blackstone grill, 1797 01:13:14.399 --> 01:13:17.020 the portable one. Not the one with the legs and everything, 1798 01:13:17.039 --> 01:13:20.789 but like... The two-burner portable that is super easy. 1799 01:13:20.829 --> 01:13:22.829 You wheel it around? No, you put it on a 1800 01:13:22.869 --> 01:13:25.250 six-foot folding table. You bring it to the kids' baseball games. 1801 01:13:25.270 --> 01:13:26.550 Oh, it's really portable. Yeah, yeah, gotcha, gotcha. 1802 01:13:26.569 --> 01:13:29.050 You bring it to the kids' baseball games. And we 1803 01:13:29.090 --> 01:13:32.590 cook up food at every one of these Gators doubleheaders. 1804 01:13:32.729 --> 01:13:32.949 Yeah. 1805 01:13:33.289 --> 01:13:36.029 And it's so fun. Depending on what time the game is, 1806 01:13:36.069 --> 01:13:37.489 we'll do breakfast sandwiches. 1807 01:13:37.510 --> 01:13:40.180 Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll do lunch. We'll do dinner, whatever. 1808 01:13:40.189 --> 01:13:42.439 Flat-top grills are the fucking best. Oh, it's so great. 1809 01:13:42.680 --> 01:13:46.529 So... I just, I don't know where I was going 1810 01:13:46.560 --> 01:13:48.159 with that, but it was so fun because it got 1811 01:13:48.199 --> 01:13:50.819 me thinking about it. And I have all these tortillas 1812 01:13:50.880 --> 01:13:53.470 left over because we were supposed to do burritos. And 1813 01:13:53.510 --> 01:13:55.390 that game got canceled because it was rained out. It 1814 01:13:55.609 --> 01:13:58.670 rained every Sunday for like six weeks in a row. Oh, yeah. 1815 01:13:58.750 --> 01:14:00.229 I know. I know. So that's when our games were. 1816 01:14:00.250 --> 01:14:02.069 The first night Sunday was when I had the Irish 1817 01:14:02.109 --> 01:14:02.829 bar at my house. 1818 01:14:02.850 --> 01:14:03.270 I lucked out. 1819 01:14:03.289 --> 01:14:06.770 So I had breakfast sandwiches and English muffins, and I 1820 01:14:06.829 --> 01:14:08.130 kept them for like six weeks. 1821 01:14:08.310 --> 01:14:08.550 Yeah. 1822 01:14:08.689 --> 01:14:10.050 And by the time we finally had a breakfast game 1823 01:14:10.069 --> 01:14:12.409 where we could cook breakfast sandwiches, I ate the first one. 1824 01:14:12.439 --> 01:14:14.359 I said, throw those out. We're using his bread. 1825 01:14:14.380 --> 01:14:17.079 Throw it at all the English muffins. Anyways, so. 1826 01:14:17.510 --> 01:14:19.930 I have all these tortillas. And I was like, what 1827 01:14:19.949 --> 01:14:20.789 do I do with these tortillas? 1828 01:14:20.810 --> 01:14:21.449 The season's over. 1829 01:14:21.470 --> 01:14:28.770 There's no more baseball. So I'm just making burritos and quesadillas. 1830 01:14:27.609 --> 01:14:30.010 And everything with my steak. That's

where I was going. Now, 1831 01:14:30.020 --> 01:14:33.720 do you take, when you cook the ribeyes, so I 1832 01:14:33.960 --> 01:14:36.819 have a setup at my house where I have the 1833 01:14:36.859 --> 01:14:39.779 flat top grill and then I have the regular grill. 1834 01:14:40.659 --> 01:14:43.199 So when I do steaks, I turn the flat top 1835 01:14:43.439 --> 01:14:45.939 as high as I can. Sear it. And let it 1836 01:14:46.000 --> 01:14:49.109 run for 20 minutes. And then season, season, sear it 1837 01:14:49.130 --> 01:14:52.270 for about 30, 45 seconds, flip it, and then I 1838 01:14:52.289 --> 01:14:54.689 put it on the grill to finish it off, to 1839 01:14:54.729 --> 01:14:58.439 get to a nice medium rare, whatever. It's nice. 1840 01:14:58.909 --> 01:15:02.439 So when I first moved in, I recommend this to anybody. 1841 01:15:03.720 --> 01:15:09.819 I already had a big, huge gas tank, propane tank 1842 01:15:09.859 --> 01:15:11.680 that heats my garage, right? 1843 01:15:12.079 --> 01:15:13.739 My garage was like yours. It's separate from the house. 1844 01:15:13.760 --> 01:15:16.489 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So on my deck, I had my 1845 01:15:16.529 --> 01:15:19.010 grill that we brought from the condo that we moved from. 1846 01:15:19.250 --> 01:15:21.609 And then I won my Blackstone at a golf tournament. 1847 01:15:21.649 --> 01:15:24.170 So I set it all up. Baller. Yeah, I'm like. 1848 01:15:24.470 --> 01:15:25.090 Long drive? 1849 01:15:26.189 --> 01:15:26.989 Closest to the hole? 1850 01:15:27.010 --> 01:15:29.100 Raffle, raffle, raffle. Lie. 1851 01:15:29.409 --> 01:15:34.210 Lie. No, no, no. Hole-in-one. Hole-in-one. Yeah. Hole-in-one won me. 1852 01:15:34.220 --> 01:15:35.420 Not the car. Won me a grill. 1853 01:15:36.340 --> 01:15:40.500 So on my back deck, I have both grills. So 1854 01:15:40.560 --> 01:15:42.520 the guy was over to fill up the tank, right? 1855 01:15:42.880 --> 01:15:43.279 It's big. 1856 01:15:43.340 --> 01:15:44.470 It's fucking this tall. 1857 01:15:45.710 --> 01:15:48.850 And I go, do you guys do propane tanks for 1858 01:15:48.930 --> 01:15:52.310 grills and stuff? He goes, nah, we're more industrial size. 1859 01:15:53.069 --> 01:15:55.619 I go, he goes, let me see what your setup is. 1860 01:15:55.680 --> 01:15:57.560 And he walks over and he goes, oh, I can 1861 01:15:57.619 --> 01:16:00.500 put an 80-gallon tank right here with a splitter and 1862 01:16:00.520 --> 01:16:01.659 I can fucking feed both. 1863 01:16:02.479 --> 01:16:03.420 This was two years ago. 1864 01:16:04.220 --> 01:16:08.810 I grill all the fucking time. And I haven't refilled 1865 01:16:08.850 --> 01:16:12.569 it yet. And I run both at the same time, whatever. Dude. 1866 01:16:12.930 --> 01:16:15.010 It's amazing. The only problem is if you don't have 1867 01:16:15.050 --> 01:16:17.489 a propane tank to heat something, they. 1868 01:16:17.350 --> 01:16:19.100 Won't just give you the little one. It's not this little. 1869 01:16:19.119 --> 01:16:20.579 It's like this big. And they won't show up to 1870 01:16:20.640 --> 01:16:20.970 fill it. 1871 01:16:21.039 --> 01:16:23.199 Right, right, right. You got to call them. So it's like, 1872 01:16:23.520 --> 01:16:23.800 all right. 1873 01:16:23.840 --> 01:16:25.399 But this guy's like, no, we won't even charge you 1874 01:16:25.420 --> 01:16:27.460 for the rental. You just pay for the fillet. And 1875 01:16:27.500 --> 01:16:29.500 then it's like, I'm like, dude, I don't. At the time, 1876 01:16:29.520 --> 01:16:31.520 I didn't think I'd be grilling that much. Now I'm 1877 01:16:31.539 --> 01:16:33.159 fucking grilling three, four nights a week. 1878 01:16:33.199 --> 01:16:33.819 It's fucking awesome. 1879 01:16:33.859 --> 01:16:35.659 I love being out there. I got my little radio 1880 01:16:35.699 --> 01:16:38.909 out there. I'm just listening to music, flipping fucking smash burgers, whatever. 1881 01:16:39.510 --> 01:16:43.130 My neighbor came. He called me, and he's. 1882 01:16:43.029 --> 01:16:44.850 Like, hey, you home? And I was like, yeah, what's up? 1883 01:16:44.869 --> 01:16:45.630 He goes, come outside. 1884 01:16:46.369 --> 01:16:47.989 And I walk out the front door, and I see 1885 01:16:48.069 --> 01:16:51.770 his kid wheeling like a little Red Ryder cart. It's 1886 01:16:51.829 --> 01:16:55.300 like three propane tanks, the five-gallon tanks, you know, right? 1887 01:16:55.859 --> 01:16:57.579 And I'm like, what the hell is Carter doing? 1888 01:16:58.079 --> 01:17:01.359 And then here comes Sean pushing his Weber grill. And 1889 01:17:01.380 --> 01:17:03.149 he's like, hey, man, I'm upgrading my grill. 1890 01:17:03.689 --> 01:17:05.350 We've got to throw yours out. Take this one. 1891 01:17:05.590 --> 01:17:09.789 Right. Real awesome. Tells you about my character. 1892 01:17:09.850 --> 01:17:13.109 Yeah. That's the same grill I'm using now five years later. Right. 1893 01:17:15.210 --> 01:17:18.069 He has those nice grill bars on it, so it's 1894 01:17:18.109 --> 01:17:21.279 not the normal things. It's the flames. 1895 01:17:20.909 --> 01:17:22.640 Don't come up. 1896 01:17:22.699 --> 01:17:25.239 Well, they lay over the top of them. Yeah. The 1897 01:17:25.260 --> 01:17:27.380 bars are gone. I take them out, and it fits in. 1898 01:17:27.399 --> 01:17:28.500 They're a custom fit. 1899 01:17:28.600 --> 01:17:29.000 Oh, gotcha. 1900 01:17:29.380 --> 01:17:32.760 And if you flip it over, it acts as a flat. 1901 01:17:32.579 --> 01:17:33.399 Top, but there's holes. 1902 01:17:33.460 --> 01:17:35.800 So you can do stuff, but only when it's super hot. 1903 01:17:35.840 --> 01:17:36.779 I never do that. 1904 01:17:36.880 --> 01:17:39.500 I just want the grill marks. So you salt the 1905 01:17:39.600 --> 01:17:40.539 shit out of these things. 1906 01:17:40.579 --> 01:17:41.180 You put them on. 1907 01:17:41.920 --> 01:17:44.649 Seven minutes later, you flip it. Seven minutes later, you 1908 01:17:44.670 --> 01:17:45.170 take

it off. 1909 01:17:45.930 --> 01:17:47.800 Done. I don't sear. 1910 01:17:47.859 --> 01:17:48.699 I don't do any of that. 1911 01:17:48.720 --> 01:17:50.439 No. Like, I should. I just like having that little 1912 01:17:50.520 --> 01:17:52.659 crust on it to sear it. Oh, absolutely. 1913 01:17:52.699 --> 01:17:55.020 I get it. But it is perfect. If you put 1914 01:17:55.060 --> 01:17:56.159 a Weber at half. 1915 01:17:56.600 --> 01:17:58.659 Yeah. And seven. You have to. 1916 01:17:59.220 --> 01:18:01.180 I run it for 30, 40 minutes before I start 1917 01:18:01.239 --> 01:18:03.539 just to make sure. Because it's all metal and you 1918 01:18:03.560 --> 01:18:04.699 want to heat the metal and you want to get 1919 01:18:04.729 --> 01:18:05.100 the flame. 1920 01:18:05.390 --> 01:18:05.699 Of course. 1921 01:18:05.819 --> 01:18:09.329 But seven and seven. That's the answer these days. I do. 1922 01:18:09.829 --> 01:18:12.109 For the thick ones. I'll do like the bacon first 1923 01:18:12.609 --> 01:18:14.750 and I'll push it off to the side. On the 1924 01:18:14.789 --> 01:18:15.079 flat top. 1925 01:18:15.210 --> 01:18:16.250 On the flat top. Yeah. 1926 01:18:16.310 --> 01:18:17.449 And I'll let the grease stay there. 1927 01:18:17.470 --> 01:18:17.829 Yeah. 1928 01:18:17.850 --> 01:18:19.090 And then I'll do the french fries. 1929 01:18:19.329 --> 01:18:21.189 Frozen. You gotta let them thaw out. And then you 1930 01:18:21.229 --> 01:18:23.869 throw the french fries on into the bacon grease. Yeah. 1931 01:18:24.289 --> 01:18:26.010 And then you just let them fucking sit for a 1932 01:18:26.010 --> 01:18:28.770 little while. You push those off. Sounds like you have 1933 01:18:28.810 --> 01:18:30.100 a 42 inch. No, I don't. 1934 01:18:30.109 --> 01:18:31.310 I have 36. 1935 01:18:31.310 --> 01:18:31.619 Really? 1936 01:18:31.659 --> 01:18:33.420 Actually, 28. I'm a two burner too. 1937 01:18:33.779 --> 01:18:36.600 Oh, jeez. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I won in a tournament. 1938 01:18:38.020 --> 01:18:39.819 So anyway, and then I'll do that. And then we'll 1939 01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:41.079 finish those off in the oven and get a little 1940 01:18:41.100 --> 01:18:42.880 more crisp. And then I'll do the burgers and stuff. Yeah. 1941 01:18:43.869 --> 01:18:46.239 Seasoning is everything. It really is for a lot of 1942 01:18:46.279 --> 01:18:48.510 this shit. A really good steak, I don't think you 1943 01:18:48.520 --> 01:18:51.390 need to season more than salt. and pepper yeah but 1944 01:18:51.789 --> 01:18:55.149 montreal montreal is good that's the one but that's what 1945 01:18:55.180 --> 01:18:57.100 i'm talking about it's just burgers though like i use 1946 01:18:57.140 --> 01:18:59.340 that dano i use i season the fuck out of 1947 01:18:59.359 --> 01:19:00.800 my burgers all sorts of different shit. 1948 01:19:00.859 --> 01:19:02.779 I'll just grab stuff i'm like let's go let's go 1949 01:19:02.800 --> 01:19:03.180 let's go. 1950 01:19:03.119 --> 01:19:06.140 Do a juicy lucy I've never actually made one, though. 1951 01:19:06.239 --> 01:19:08.100 That's with the cheese in the middle, right? The two patties, 1952 01:19:08.140 --> 01:19:09.340 you put the cheese in the middle. It can be 1953 01:19:09.359 --> 01:19:11.220 done well. It can be done horribly. Yeah, I can imagine. 1954 01:19:11.239 --> 01:19:12.979 When you bite into it and you burn the shit 1955 01:19:13.020 --> 01:19:14.159 out of your mouth. Oh, yeah. 1956 01:19:14.180 --> 01:19:15.939 You probably got to let that sit for a little bit, huh? 1957 01:19:15.979 --> 01:19:16.579 Yeah. 1958 01:19:16.880 --> 01:19:18.579 Or cut it open. But that defeats the point. 1959 01:19:20.319 --> 01:19:21.890 That's something I learned how to make. So this is 1960 01:19:21.930 --> 01:19:24.529 a funny story. So if you look up behind you, 1961 01:19:24.670 --> 01:19:27.210 you'll see Sean Healy Memorial Golf Tournament. Yeah. 1962 01:19:28.050 --> 01:19:31.069 So it's a friend of ours that passed away. And 1963 01:19:31.609 --> 01:19:34.609 that was the first year in 2024. 1964 01:19:35.029 --> 01:19:38.909 So we had a tournament, and the grand prize in 1965 01:19:38.930 --> 01:19:41.970 the raffle, or the big raffle, was winning the Blackstone. 1966 01:19:42.670 --> 01:19:46.029 So that was how I won the Blackstone. Oh, that tournament. 1967 01:19:46.050 --> 01:19:49.770 That tournament. So then last year, I just put all 1968 01:19:49.810 --> 01:19:53.069 my ducks in one basket, or eggs in one basket, 1969 01:19:53.649 --> 01:19:58.569 on this beautiful yellow stand-up rolling cooler with the doors. 1970 01:19:59.090 --> 01:20:04.260 Hit it, right? This year... I put $ 20 into the 1971 01:20:04.300 --> 01:20:06.579 golden ticket. That's how I won the rambling in to 1972 01:20:06.619 --> 01:20:09.279 come to my house. I am like three for fucking 1973 01:20:09.319 --> 01:20:11.359 three for my buddy Sean Healy's tournament. 1974 01:20:11.800 --> 01:20:14.159 Hell yeah, buddy. Hell yeah. 1975 01:20:14.399 --> 01:20:18.279 See, my friends hate me because I always win raffle stuff. Yeah, 1976 01:20:18.319 --> 01:20:18.840 I do too. 1977 01:20:19.579 --> 01:20:23.550 And I'm organizing and managing and setting up and emailing 1978 01:20:23.590 --> 01:20:26.569 these people just like the turkey trot for the Little 1979 01:20:26.590 --> 01:20:32.189 League tournament, the United Way tournament, for the Purple Pantry tournament. 1980 01:20:32.819 --> 01:20:37.279 And I'll always win an exceptional amount of things. So 1981 01:20:37.319 --> 01:20:40.359 I give my tickets to my buddies and say, hey, 1982 01:20:40.560 --> 01:20:44.210 if these win, keep them inside. I'm keeping this, but 1983 01:20:44.409 --> 01:20:46.529 don't make it clear it's me because I'm reading the numbers. 1984 01:20:46.550 --> 01:20:48.930 I don't know my numbers. 1985 01:20:48.949 --> 01:20:51.130 You're an insider trader. 1986 01:20:51.170 --> 01:20:54.670 Right, exactly. So

I'm reading this. And at one point, 1987 01:20:54.909 --> 01:21:01.020 this was the Purple Pantry event that happened just this March. No, May. 1988 01:21:01.220 --> 01:21:03.760 This was May. It was 420, I think. Maybe it 1989 01:21:03.779 --> 01:21:07.149 was last year. Anyways, so I gave it to my buddy, Kevin, 1990 01:21:07.590 --> 01:21:10.369 and I was like, buddy, if any of these tickets 1991 01:21:10.430 --> 01:21:12.789 win the 50-50, you just take the money and you 1992 01:21:12.810 --> 01:21:14.090 hand it right back because it goes. 1993 01:21:14.010 --> 01:21:15.369 Straight to the charity. That's what it's about. 1994 01:21:15.609 --> 01:21:17.510 We're here for charity. That's why I don't play 50-50 anymore. 1995 01:21:17.529 --> 01:21:19.939 That's a whole other thing. And it turns out that 1996 01:21:19.979 --> 01:21:22.899 it was like $ 900 is what was going to the winner, 1997 01:21:22.939 --> 01:21:24.939 which is like the biggest 50-50 we've had at one 1998 01:21:24.979 --> 01:21:27.180 of these events. It's not a huge amount of money, 1999 01:21:27.239 --> 01:21:28.779 but it's huge for a golf tournament. 2000 01:21:29.239 --> 01:21:30.300 That's a good number. 2001 01:21:31.159 --> 01:21:32.770 And that means $ 1, 800 was. 2002 01:21:32.689 --> 01:21:33.090 In, right? 2003 01:21:33.229 --> 01:21:36.930 So he's walking up and he's like, he's mouthing to me, 2004 01:21:37.010 --> 01:21:38.989 it's yours, it's yours. And I'm sitting there and I 2005 01:21:38.989 --> 01:21:41.060 was like, you better fucking return that. 2006 01:21:42.180 --> 01:21:44.579 So he takes it, turns and looks at the crowd 2007 01:21:44.600 --> 01:21:45.199 and hands it back. 2008 01:21:45.220 --> 01:21:47.359 He's like, oh, look at that good guy right there. 2009 01:21:48.340 --> 01:21:49.449 Everyone was booing him. 2010 01:21:49.470 --> 01:21:52.000 Like, It was great. 2011 01:21:52.300 --> 01:21:54.399 I'm weird on 50-50. 2012 01:21:55.180 --> 01:21:57.489 For a charity, it's different than at a baseball game. 2013 01:21:57.850 --> 01:22:02.409 Well, all right. So I'll even go one step further. Yes, baseball, basketball. 2014 01:22:02.470 --> 01:22:04.060 Yeah, you win it, you win it. 2015 01:22:04.550 --> 01:22:04.909 Whatever. 2016 01:22:04.949 --> 01:22:05.609 It's 20 grand. 2017 01:22:05.710 --> 01:22:10.659 Right, right. It's a lot of money. But I hate... 2018 01:22:10.260 --> 01:22:14.579 If you're going to a cancer fundraiser or something like that, fucking, yeah, 2019 01:22:14.619 --> 01:22:17.390 give the money back. Like... I would rather not even, 2020 01:22:17.409 --> 01:22:18.909 don't even give me a ticket because I don't want 2021 01:22:18.949 --> 01:22:21.750 to have to make that decision. Just take my $ 20 2022 01:22:21.689 --> 01:22:22.750 and put it towards it, you know? 2023 01:22:23.810 --> 01:22:26.489 And I was. But you have to do gimmicks to 2024 01:22:26.529 --> 01:22:27.510 get people to give you that $ 20. 2025 01:22:27.449 --> 01:22:28.649 No, no, no, no, no, no. 2026 01:22:28.689 --> 01:22:31.720 I'm saying me personally, like just, yeah, I'll just give 2027 01:22:31.729 --> 01:22:33.380 you money. I'm generous as fuck. 2028 01:22:33.399 --> 01:22:34.020 I'll give you money. 2029 01:22:35.199 --> 01:22:37.340 And I hit, I was, oh God, it's. 2030 01:22:37.220 --> 01:22:40.000 20 something years ago. It was Kiwanis in Milford. They 2031 01:22:40.079 --> 01:22:41.779 had a golf tournament every year I used to go to. 2032 01:22:41.800 --> 01:22:46.199 I don't go to it anymore, but. I was really fucking, like, 2033 01:22:46.720 --> 01:22:50.199 broke at the time. Like, I fucking owed, like, I 2034 01:22:50.220 --> 01:22:54.039 was probably 20-something years old. I owed $ 5, 000 in car 2035 01:22:54.720 --> 01:22:57.210 taxes to the fucking car I had in West Haven 2036 01:22:57.229 --> 01:23:00.930 because it was so ridiculous. Because Connecticut taxes your fucking 2037 01:23:00.989 --> 01:23:02.310 cars every year. Right. 2038 01:23:02.609 --> 01:23:05.390 What is that? And, you know, I'm living with three roommates. 2039 01:23:05.470 --> 01:23:06.989 It was not a great time in my life. 2040 01:23:07.149 --> 01:23:12.529 But I won, like, $ 1, 300. 2041 01:23:09.850 --> 01:23:11.819 And I was, like, the last person to put my 2042 01:23:11.859 --> 01:23:15.369 fucking number in. They pull it. And it was one 2043 01:23:15.409 --> 01:23:16.710 of the security guards at Stonebridge. 2044 01:23:16.729 --> 01:23:19.680 She's like, oh, the dog. She's like, dog, dog, dog. 2045 01:23:19.699 --> 01:23:20.819 You want him? I'm like, holy shit. 2046 01:23:21.439 --> 01:23:24.260 Everyone's like, put it back. 2047 01:23:24.819 --> 01:23:27.399 I'm like, no, I'm not. And I was young, too. 2048 01:23:27.479 --> 01:23:29.279 I mean, if it was me now, I would. But 2049 01:23:29.300 --> 01:23:30.119 that's totally fine. 2050 01:23:30.159 --> 01:23:32.149 Right. It's a different. So then I go to like, 2051 01:23:32.310 --> 01:23:34.289 you know, I see him everywhere now. And I'm like, 2052 01:23:35.350 --> 01:23:37.829 to me, it really depends on the event. You know, 2053 01:23:37.869 --> 01:23:40.609 like if it's somebody, if it's a cancer fundraiser or 2054 01:23:40.649 --> 01:23:43.529 any kind of health fundraiser. Dude, again. 2055 01:23:43.550 --> 01:23:44.250 It depends on the organization. 2056 01:23:44.270 --> 01:23:47.409 I don't want my tickets drawn. I don't even want the, 2057 01:23:47.550 --> 01:23:50.010 I don't want the praise of giving it back. 2058 01:23:50.029 --> 01:23:52.710 I don't care about that shit. But it's about the organization. 2059 01:23:53.210 --> 01:23:55.390 If they're already making a million dollars, two million dollars, 2060 01:23:55.409 --> 01:23:58.069 two million dollars a year. Right, right. They don't care 2061 01:23:58.109 --> 01:24:00.109 about two grand. If I'm winning a Fenway, I'm taking 2062 01:24:00.140 --> 01:24:04.319 the

fucking 30 grand. No, no, 100%. But if it's 2063 01:24:04.340 --> 01:24:06.859 the Purple Pantry and our annual budget is 70 grand 2064 01:24:06.880 --> 01:24:07.720 a year. Right. 2065 01:24:07.800 --> 01:24:09.359 And you're talking about giving back 800 bucks. 2066 01:24:09.380 --> 01:24:12.039 Right. Holy shit. 2067 01:24:12.220 --> 01:24:12.600 Yeah. 2068 01:24:12.859 --> 01:24:15.039 That's more than a percent. Right, right, right. 2069 01:24:15.439 --> 01:24:19.520 That's a big deal. Now, it's different for different organizations. 2070 01:24:19.600 --> 01:24:19.699 Right. 2071 01:24:19.720 --> 01:24:21.340 It's different for what their focuses are. 2072 01:24:22.779 --> 01:24:26.250 But just the fact that, don't call it a 50-50 raffle. 2073 01:24:26.489 --> 01:24:28.729 But then people don't get money. No, but no. Because 2074 01:24:28.869 --> 01:24:30.029 the gambling, the excitement. 2075 01:24:30.149 --> 01:24:34.479 No, this bothers me because I feel it's false advertising. 2076 01:24:35.300 --> 01:24:37.239 I'm one of the most generous people you'll find, as 2077 01:24:37.279 --> 01:24:39.159 you are as well. Three quarters of the people keep 2078 01:24:39.180 --> 01:24:39.500 the money. 2079 01:24:40.079 --> 01:24:42.550 Right, I know. But, like, do it some. 2080 01:24:42.869 --> 01:24:44.010 Buy a fucking TV. 2081 01:24:44.630 --> 01:24:47.149 Like, do something where you don't have to force the 2082 01:24:47.210 --> 01:24:51.090 person into being an asshole or a savior. See, I 2083 01:24:51.130 --> 01:24:53.489 don't think of them as an asshole. Yeah, you might not, 2084 01:24:53.569 --> 01:24:55.770 but fucking people there, they're chanting them on. 2085 01:24:55.840 --> 01:24:56.720 Donate it back. 2086 01:24:56.800 --> 01:24:58.000 And I'm like, oh, man. 2087 01:24:58.020 --> 01:24:59.319 Maybe that guy needs the money. 2088 01:24:59.359 --> 01:25:01.819 That's maybe why he fucking took the raffle ticket. 2089 01:25:02.039 --> 01:25:03.930 But they're drunk. They don't remember it the next day. 2090 01:25:03.939 --> 01:25:07.520 Not every event, though. Not every event. I get what 2091 01:25:07.539 --> 01:25:09.819 you're saying. I've had an issue with 50-50 for a 2092 01:25:09.840 --> 01:25:10.359 long time. 2093 01:25:10.380 --> 01:25:12.949 I get what you're saying, and I fully appreciate it. 2094 01:25:13.340 --> 01:25:17.050 But in an environment like we're in today, which is 2095 01:25:17.100 --> 01:25:19.909 completely different than it was... six years ago, five years, 2096 01:25:20.090 --> 01:25:24.989 four years ago, getting sponsors, getting money, anything is so 2097 01:25:25.010 --> 01:25:27.229 much more difficult. This is, I don't want to bring 2098 01:25:27.270 --> 01:25:29.130 this up. This is the first year we're not going 2099 01:25:29.149 --> 01:25:31.029 to be able to cover all of our costs for 2100 01:25:31.050 --> 01:25:32.170 the turkey trout with sponsors. 2101 01:25:32.630 --> 01:25:33.409 Really? Yeah. 2102 01:25:33.510 --> 01:25:37.039 Because so all great organizations, I'm not going to throw 2103 01:25:37.100 --> 01:25:37.840 anyone under the bus. 2104 01:25:38.020 --> 01:25:38.779 Everyone is awesome. 2105 01:25:38.800 --> 01:25:40.739 They've all given out money many years in a row. 2106 01:25:41.220 --> 01:25:43.420 There are so many organizations that can't give money this 2107 01:25:43.439 --> 01:25:44.800 year because of the climate we're in. 2108 01:25:45.140 --> 01:25:45.319 Yeah. 2109 01:25:45.930 --> 01:25:49.109 And they've already committed money here or they just don't 2110 01:25:49.170 --> 01:25:52.369 have it or they're not even in business anymore. Like, 2111 01:25:52.970 --> 01:25:54.649 it's not a good environment. 2112 01:25:54.670 --> 01:25:55.210 Right. 2113 01:25:55.430 --> 01:25:58.149 And there are so many more golf tournaments. There are 2114 01:25:58.220 --> 01:26:01.680 so many more runs. There are so many more people 2115 01:26:01.729 --> 01:26:05.140 in need or family members of their own that they know. 2116 01:26:05.159 --> 01:26:06.119 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 2117 01:26:06.239 --> 01:26:09.060 The heartbreaking stories are what caused me to say, like, 2118 01:26:09.180 --> 01:26:13.779 I don't... Everyone is awesome. They're all great. You have 2119 01:26:13.800 --> 01:26:14.600 the benefit of the doubt. 2120 01:26:14.760 --> 01:26:15.210 But.... 2121 01:26:16.640 --> 01:26:18.600 I'm going to ask you once. If you don't respond, 2122 01:26:18.619 --> 01:26:21.039 I'll ask you twice. If you tell me, hey, I can't, 2123 01:26:21.079 --> 01:26:24.420 I'm not going to ask you again. And this is 2124 01:26:24.479 --> 01:26:27.020 our lowest fundraising year in four years. 2125 01:26:27.560 --> 01:26:28.060 And that's fine. 2126 01:26:28.439 --> 01:26:30.689 It's totally fine. It just means that this is the 2127 01:26:30.729 --> 01:26:33.949 first year. Not 100% of the race registration money is 2128 01:26:33.970 --> 01:26:34.689 going to go to charity. 2129 01:26:34.930 --> 01:26:36.050 Right. And that's fine. Right. 2130 01:26:36.149 --> 01:26:37.890 It's totally fine. We're still going to be a lot 2131 01:26:37.909 --> 01:26:38.170 of money. 2132 01:26:38.289 --> 01:26:39.369 You're not making a dime. 2133 01:26:39.590 --> 01:26:42.539 It's all going to charity. Nobody in the entire tourney 2134 01:26:42.560 --> 01:26:44.119 trot makes a cent. 2135 01:26:44.359 --> 01:26:44.939 Right. And that's fine. 2136 01:26:44.960 --> 01:26:47.739 But we love giving more money each year, right? Everyone 2137 01:26:47.760 --> 01:26:49.840 loves growth. Everyone loves this, that. 2138 01:26:49.920 --> 01:26:54.149 Right. And it's in the current situation. Oh, now Dems 2139 01:26:54.189 --> 01:27:01.840 control everything. So you're screwed. Yeah. That's what put us here. Well, yeah, 2140 01:27:01.880 --> 01:27:06.619 but still, but still, it's just, it's just. 2141 01:27:06.500 --> 01:27:10.390 Crazy to see of, even when I'm,

when I'm working 2142 01:27:10.449 --> 01:27:13.739 on the Milford United way golf tournament, people are like, Oh, 2143 01:27:13.750 --> 01:27:15.710 well this is like my sixth golf tournament of the year. 2144 01:27:15.729 --> 01:27:17.840 I'm like, number one, I didn't get invited. So invite 2145 01:27:17.859 --> 01:27:22.420 me next time. Number two, Like, holy shit, there's so many. 2146 01:27:22.479 --> 01:27:24.239 And you mentioned it. Oh, I used to do this one. 2147 01:27:24.260 --> 01:27:27.720 I used to do that one. Dude, my friend that 2148 01:27:27.739 --> 01:27:29.819 still works at Stonebridge, he plays in like two a week. 2149 01:27:29.840 --> 01:27:31.159 He doesn't pay for any of them. But here's the thing. 2150 01:27:31.199 --> 01:27:33.460 They're sponsored by whoever and whoever and whoever. 2151 01:27:33.739 --> 01:27:35.510 How do I find out about those? Because I want 2152 01:27:35.520 --> 01:27:37.949 to play in them. And there's. 2153 01:27:39.590 --> 01:27:41.670 No central pop, right? You have to know someone. You 2154 01:27:41.689 --> 01:27:42.329 have to be on a list. 2155 01:27:42.350 --> 01:27:44.590 Well, a lot of these are just sold out automatically. 2156 01:27:44.609 --> 01:27:46.960 It's the same people from last year. You know what 2157 01:27:46.979 --> 01:27:50.220 I mean? Casey's Irish Pub sells out before it was 2158 01:27:50.239 --> 01:27:52.560 even announced. I couldn't play in the last few years, 2159 01:27:52.600 --> 01:27:54.279 but yeah, I still gave her $ 100 to put my 2160 01:27:54.300 --> 01:27:56.260 sign up. I can't play. 2161 01:27:56.279 --> 01:27:56.859 That one's impressive. 2162 01:27:56.880 --> 01:27:59.359 It's a Tuesday. It's during the week, and I'm like, fuck, 2163 01:27:59.420 --> 01:28:00.800 I can't do it. Yeah. 2164 01:28:01.159 --> 01:28:02.939 I've got to take two days off, basically. I've got 2165 01:28:02.979 --> 01:28:03.470 Tuesday off. 2166 01:28:03.430 --> 01:28:07.710 To play, and Wednesday I'm on over.

And we finally get through a couple holes 2246 01:31:07.020 --> 01:31:07.720 and she's comfortable. 2247 01:31:07.760 --> 01:31:10.600 And we're like, fuck it.

It's like way down low 2259 01:31:33.340 --> 01:31:35.310 and you're, I don't know the course, but good enough 2260 01:31:35.350 --> 01:31:38.010 to like, but like she just

Why do we even try? 2272 01:31:58.840 --> 01:32:00.939 I know. She was effortless. 2273 01:32:01.939 --> 01:32:05.020 I think she took her shoes off because she's like, 2274 01:32:05.060 --> 01:32:07.460 these aren't like natural golf shoes. I've got to play barefoot. 2275 01:32:07.500 --> 01:32:11.449 These are like caddy shoes. And we're like, go just fuck. 2276 01:32:11.989 --> 01:32:14.840 Oh, man. Oh, that's good, man. That's good stuff. Good 2277 01:32:14.859 --> 01:32:16.199 to talk to you. I used to play there all 2278 01:32:16.220 --> 01:32:19.109 the time. I love it there. Great to talk to you, man. Again, 2279 01:32:19.210 --> 01:32:21.949 let's do a final plug for Turkey Trot. It is 2280 01:32:21.970 --> 01:32:27.090 the 26th this year, Thanksgiving. Thursday, the start time is? 2281 01:32:27.090 --> 01:32:28.210 9 a.m. 2282 01:32:29.430 --> 01:32:33.890 Show up anytime after 7.30. Anytime after 7.30. I get 2283 01:32:33.949 --> 01:32:37.590 there around 5. We ask volunteers to be there at 6. 2284 01:32:37.590 --> 01:32:39.449 It's a lot to set this nonsense up. You can 2285 01:32:40.590 --> 01:32:42.600 go to milfordturkeytrot.com. That's what I was going to say. 2286 01:32:42.609 --> 01:32:47.239 What's the website? milfordturkeytrot.com. And there's a volunteer sign-up. There's 2287 01:32:47.279 --> 01:32:49.899 a sponsorship sign-up. There's all kinds of fun stuff. But 2288 01:32:49.939 --> 01:32:52.220 more than anything, register. And I just want to let 2289 01:32:52.260 --> 01:32:54.619 everyone know that I pay every year. 2290 01:32:54.779 --> 01:32:59.199 I don't get the benefit of hosting him to get free. Because, again, 2291 01:32:59.439 --> 01:33:03.420 we were just talking about, you know, he needs money. 2292 01:33:03.539 --> 01:33:06.100 And he doesn't need the money. He wants more money 2293 01:33:06.180 --> 01:33:08.859 to donate to the charities that he donates to. And 2294 01:33:08.899 --> 01:33:10.840 that's what it's all about, especially this time of year 2295 01:33:10.880 --> 01:33:13.539 when families are struggling. And, you know, we all know 2296 01:33:13.579 --> 01:33:17.460 how the economy is in this world. And it's funny. 2297 01:33:18.220 --> 01:33:22.710

I'll finish on this note, Tork. I have keeping Milford 2298 01:33:22.750 --> 01:33:25.329 warm on a lot. They're going to be coming on 2299 01:33:26.130 --> 01:33:27.890 when I get back from Germany. And one of the 2300 01:33:27.930 --> 01:33:32.409 amazing things we talk about is we talked about earlier, 2301 01:33:32.449 --> 01:33:35.239 we think we live in this bubble. And there are 2302 01:33:35.800 --> 01:33:39.739 many people struggling in Milford that can't pay their electricity bills, 2303 01:33:39.779 --> 01:33:42.100 that can't pay their gas bills, that keep their houses warm. 2304 01:33:42.140 --> 01:33:42.800 Can't afford food. 2305 01:33:42.899 --> 01:33:43.800 And can't afford food. 2306 01:33:44.100 --> 01:33:46.779 And you're one of them, and these are some of the, 2307 01:33:47.159 --> 01:33:51.189 you know, I hate using the word charity, but these 2308 01:33:51.250 --> 01:33:57.189 are some of these corporations or organizations that come together 2309 01:33:57.630 --> 01:34:00.289 and bring Milford people in to donate some of the money. 2310 01:34:00.329 --> 01:34:03.800 Because we are pretty much, you know, I wouldn't call 2311 01:34:03.819 --> 01:34:05.659 us a wealthy town, but there's a lot of wealthy 2312 01:34:05.699 --> 01:34:08.560 people in this town who have the means to donate. 2313 01:34:09.000 --> 01:34:14.239 And I am not one of them. But I donate anyway, 2314 01:34:14.539 --> 01:34:18.439 is my point. I still donate because a couple bucks 2315 01:34:18.479 --> 01:34:22.279 here and there adds up in the end. You don't 2316 01:34:22.300 --> 01:34:23.720 always see the fruits of your labor. 2317 01:34:23.739 --> 01:34:25.960 You're not going to know who got the money.
