[00:01:07] Speaker B: To my left here we have Michael Billings and Nate Hills. [00:01:10] Speaker C: What's going on? [00:01:12] Speaker B: Yeah, we have, we have Tib in town today. We got Tib. Why are you here? [00:01:17] Speaker D: I'm not sure. You told me to come out here and I said, okay, I'll come out. And I think we're going to the range. [00:01:23] Speaker B: Yeah, we're going to go. We're going to Ordinary. So. [00:01:26] Speaker D: Ohio Range day. [00:01:27] Speaker B: Ohio Range day. [00:01:28] Speaker A: He came for the meat and cheese board. [00:01:30] Speaker B: That was a real reason Mike had a big spread for us today. That was quite delicious. And yeah, so if you're watching live, we have a new setup here. After having Rick on last week and having four people around that big table, it just felt, it was, it was hard. So I was like, let's, let's try something different. So we got these chairs and tables and I don't know if you're watching. Let us know what you think. I think it, I think it looks, looks pretty nice. [00:01:54] Speaker D: It's comfy. [00:01:54] Speaker B: It's definitely comfy. Just feels a little more like living room conversational rather than, you know, sitting around a fancy table. So I don't know. I like the Vibe. [00:02:05] Speaker A: Yeah, I think you guys should have a dad joke for this. For this vibe, there's got to be a dad joke. [00:02:10] Speaker D: I'm not quick witted enough to think of one of the spots. [00:02:13] Speaker B: Sorry. [00:02:13] Speaker A: Oh, man. [00:02:15] Speaker B: But yeah. So Nate, why don't you hit the lifer and sounder and lifer Sounder. Life isn't just the big moments. It's the everyday joy is worth protecting. Family, friends and community. [00:02:29] Speaker D: Let's talk about what makes life rich. [00:02:33] Speaker B: So today we're, we're, we're changing things up a little bit. Not only visually and here have we changed things up, but because we're getting ready for ord. I'm just going to be straight up. We did not have a ton of time to really put a lot of thought into what I wanted to talk about this week. I know last week I kind of teased that we're going to talk about just everything that's gone on the last couple weeks with Charlie Kirk, with the woman that was killed on the bus with school shootings. Just like there's been a lot that has gone on and we talked a little bit about it yesterday and we all have a lot to say on it all. However, we felt like we needed more time to really prepare all the correct thoughts to do it well on the podcast. And just again with prepping for ord felt like we just didn't have the time to give it the attention that it needs. So I actually thought we would kind of change this up a little bit this week. We're actually not going to have a Liberty and equip segment. We're just going to kind of hang out, kind of go back to what the original, the original lives. Before we started doing this as a podcast, we would just kind of hop on live and do some silly would you rather questions and we would normally show a product or something like that, but honestly, we'd spend most of the time just kind of chatting with each other with the people that are on the live. And so I actually have a bunch of 10 would you rather questions that we can do. But first I thought we'd just kind of catch up, just kind of, you know, with each other and what's going on with. With life. Tim, you want to start? [00:04:10] Speaker C: What's going on with you? [00:04:11] Speaker D: I'm going to Ohio this week. I don't know if you guys know that. Yeah, going to Ohio. [00:04:16] Speaker C: When are you going? [00:04:17] Speaker D: This morning. [00:04:18] Speaker C: Oh, okay. [00:04:18] Speaker D: About two hours ago. [00:04:19] Speaker C: Oh, nice. [00:04:20] Speaker D: I missed my dogs already. [00:04:23] Speaker B: But you're cuddling with my dog. [00:04:24] Speaker D: I was that's why I had your dog to hold me over and get my dog fix. It's my dog's two year Gotcha day. We got our dog two years ago today, and so I didn't get to see him yet. So we'll do a video call later and there's a cheeseburger waiting for him in the refrigerator. [00:04:42] Speaker A: A cheeseburger? Oh, yeah. I was spoiled. [00:04:44] Speaker D: Yeah, well, just a hamburger, no cheese. [00:04:46] Speaker A: It's spoiled. [00:04:47] Speaker D: Yeah, it's, you know, it's his little anniversary, so we get a hamburger coming and yeah, kids both have music concerts that I'm gonna miss. Oh, shucks. [00:04:59] Speaker B: Oh, well. [00:05:01] Speaker D: And that's about it. [00:05:02] Speaker A: Is it the. At the end? [00:05:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:05:06] Speaker D: My daughter plays saxophone. My son plays trumpet, actually pretty good. [00:05:12] Speaker A: But you hear it all the time at the house here. [00:05:13] Speaker D: Yeah, it is very, very cool when they play together, when they both know the song and they're jamming together. [00:05:18] Speaker B: I was gonna say, do they. Do they play like the same song. [00:05:20] Speaker D: Together a lot of times? Yeah. So my daughter knows a lot, being she's four years old and knows a lot more advanced music, but she still remembers a lot of the stuff he's learning and there's a lot of carryover. So they do jam out together and they'll do Star wars together all the time. So. Yeah, it is cool when they jam out. [00:05:37] Speaker B: So it sounds like you need to get like a drum kit. [00:05:39] Speaker D: He is learning the drums now. That's something he's learning. And I don't, I don't want that in the house. He can learn that at school if he wants. But the. The concert's pretty cool. In Providence, Rhode island, they have something called water fire in the summer and the fall where they have these like, metal fire pits out on the. In the middle of like this little river. And they light all of the fire pits and they have live music playing and whatnot. So that's what they're going to play. So that's pretty cool. [00:06:09] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:09] Speaker A: That sounds like a good time. [00:06:10] Speaker B: Yeah, very good. How are you, Nate? [00:06:13] Speaker C: Well, I think I said this last week, but we're in the midst of camping season, so in the next 5, 6ish weeks, I'm camping like 4 times. Some camping this weekend, camping next weekend, have one or two weeks off camping again. And then I'm camping one last time. The first weekend of November. That'll be the last one for the season. Then close out the camper and put it away. So we're in the midst of getting all that stuff ready. We were Getting the camper ready. Last night I was making beds in the camper, just putting food away. Dry, dry food stock, putting that away. Getting the refrigerator turned on. Had the kids packing some clothes to put away. We're trying to get it so that they're packing clothes up that we can put in the camper for this weekend. But when we get back, we can just wash and put right back in. That way we don't have to repack. So it'll just be pull out, wash, throw right back in so it's not having to repack. So we did that. What else did we do? I can't remember. Oh, you know, lawn chair or folding chairs, folding tables, hot dog skewers, those kind of things all were getting put away. We actually haven't gotten to camp much this year. We only camped once in the spring. So a lot of the stuff that I normally would have just always in the camper have come out throughout the summer. So all of that stuff had to be put back in hammocks, all of that stuff. So we're getting all that stuff ready for the next five, six weeks, and then we'll be camping a lot. So basically that's. That's most of what's going on for us, is just getting ready for all of that. So it'll be nice. Unfortunately, it's raining right now. We were supposed to carry a bunch of stuff out to the camper, which we didn't do, which will probably happen either tonight or tomorrow night, so that we can have all of that stuff ready so that once work and the kids get back from school on Friday, we can just hook up and drive. Most camping we're doing is only within 45 minutes to an hour from. From home. So it's an easy run, right? You just hook up the camper after, throw the kids in the vehicle and drive. It's. It's not something that you have to spend hours and hours. We're not getting there in the dark. We just get there, pull in, set the camper up, and 30 minutes after we get there, we're. We're ready to go. So super easy, no big deal. So that's what we're doing. And then the only other camping trip we've got outside of that is I've got a men's retreat is one of the four camping trips. And that one's a little bit more involved because more backpacking. But other than that, that's what I've got going on. So it's just all camping prep. [00:08:41] Speaker B: So we're Heading to perfect camping season. [00:08:43] Speaker D: Camping in November Sounds miserable. [00:08:45] Speaker C: Oh no, it's great. So it's, it's my favorite, it's actually my favorite camping trip of the year. We go. [00:08:49] Speaker B: You have to remember they have a. [00:08:50] Speaker D: Camper still too cold. [00:08:52] Speaker C: It's, it's the, it's my favorite camping trip of the year. We almost always go on the time change weekend. It's not necessarily that we plan it that way. It just happens to be that, that we go on that weekend. So we drive out. We almost always go to the same campground with the same folks. Excuse me. And it's just wonderful. I think it was two years ago. It actually snowed a little bit on us. Not a lot, just a little bit. But we had a fire going the whole time. It was really, really nice. We just get to be outside and enjoy it. The campgrounds are not busy because everyone's. [00:09:29] Speaker D: Gone at that point. [00:09:29] Speaker C: Yeah, it's the first weekend of November so most of the tent campers are avoiding. You have a few, a few holdouts that are, that are coming out, but most of the tent campers are gone. There's a few people that are coming out with their, their campers. But even those guys, most of them are closing those up for the season. I mean I'm pushing it even hitting November because you're really probably should be putting your antifreeze in the lines and everything at that point. I'll do it the next weekend but. And you don't have the super deep freezes so it's not a big deal. Yes. [00:10:02] Speaker B: They won't get that cold front. [00:10:03] Speaker D: One cold front comes through though and. [00:10:05] Speaker C: Yeah, so I mean, but it's, it's always one of my favorite ones to close out the year is that last, that last camping trip. So that's one of my favorites. It's not a big deal. It's a lot of fun. Really enjoy just going out for that last one. And like I said, that first weekend, it's almost always the first weekend of November. It's a 45 minute drive after work, run down. We spend the weekend. It's just, it's relaxed. We don't do anything, we don't hike. We just hang out around the fire. Kids ride their bikes on the campground, you know, streets and everything, play on the playground and we just chill. It's probably the most relaxing one of the year. [00:10:39] Speaker B: I just love when you can sit around the fire during the day. [00:10:41] Speaker C: Yeah. Well, that's so hot. [00:10:43] Speaker B: I love day fire city. [00:10:45] Speaker C: Yeah, well, that's what I'M saying that is the best one because even so, this next weekend or this coming weekend, I think the weather should still actually be good this weekend. But it's going to be in the mid-70s. [00:10:56] Speaker B: It's going to be warm this weekend. [00:10:57] Speaker C: It's too warm to sit around the fire during the day. It'll be fine at night, which is wonderful. But I want to go to bed. I'm not a late night person. [00:11:05] Speaker B: I love getting up in the morning, kicking the fire back up because it's just making breakfast on the fire and it's kind of sitting around the fire all day. Make lunch on the fire. Yeah. Make dinner on the fire and just repeat. Right. That's the best. [00:11:16] Speaker C: So this next weekend will probably be a little bit warm for day. All day fire. [00:11:21] Speaker A: Yes. [00:11:23] Speaker C: Not this coming weekend, but the weekend after again is iffy. We will have my men's retreat in a couple weeks. Will be. It really just depends. Mid October can either be. [00:11:36] Speaker D: Could be dramatically different. [00:11:37] Speaker C: Yeah, it could be 65, 50 or 5565 somewhere in there. Or it could be mid-70s, who knows? We normally have the fire going throughout the day. We may not be sitting next to it, but we just have it going. But it just depends. It'll be cold at night for sure. It's October, it's not going to be warm at night, but it's iffy. But November, it will be cold enough to have a fire going all day, which will be awesome. [00:12:03] Speaker B: Yeah. Love you, Mike. [00:12:07] Speaker A: This weekend was a busy weekend and the lady came into town, came to see me. We went and shot a two gun night match. Got to shoot under nods. [00:12:16] Speaker B: Awesome. [00:12:16] Speaker A: Had a blast. My IR lasers weren't completely zeroed so there's a 200 yard shot that you had to let ring. And by the time, you know, the fourth to the fifth shot comes along and you're just like, I can't see where I'm impacting. I just mag dumped it. It's all fun this. Accuracy by volume, volume by fire. So finished the first stage like that, but it was fun. A good buddy of mine, Devin with Spectre Solution, hosts it. He had night vision for us too. I borrowed your pair of nods, had the helmet set up. I ran a boonie which to my surprise it actually worked relatively well for duals. Now when you put the quads on there, probably not so much. We got some good photos, went out to eat down in Cleveland, had an amazing dinner at Purew and the summer place made reservations for one. The vibe wasn't all that great. So had appetizers and then Pierre W. Was next door. So had oyster. So fresh seafood. Not as fresh as where you're at, but it's as close as I can get for where I'm at inland. What else did we do? Did photos. I went to a gun store at Summit armory and ended up leaving with OA defense pistol. So now I have to get another holster and get set up and get everything for it. Got to shoot it a little bit. We're gonna shoot it. We're absolutely. I was told via the instructions you have to break it in nice and slowly for the first hundred rounds. Oops. So the mag dump was quick, right? It wasn't that many rounds. [00:13:49] Speaker B: There are 20 splits slow enough. [00:13:50] Speaker A: Yeah. So we'll slow it down and break it in. But we will absolutely be shooting it this weekend. I have got the holster, got the light on it at lunch. So got the 6360 from Safari Land. So we're set for that. So jam packed weekend. Made the security board got to relax on Sunday. That's a gift from Hannah to you guys. [00:14:09] Speaker D: Thank you. [00:14:10] Speaker A: Thank you Hannah for that. The security board is phenomenal. So I'm super stoked for Ord. I think this is like my fourth year in a row. Maybe fifth year. I can't remember the first one. Honestly, it's been just year after year. The like we mentioned last week, the camaraderie. I'm so excited to see faces only that I get to talk in passing or text through, you know, social media. But to see everybody come back together and I'm actually excited about our endeavors. [00:14:40] Speaker B: So I'll be honest, I'm just as excited. [00:14:42] Speaker A: I'm really excited about that. I wish you excited. I wish you were camping with us. [00:14:47] Speaker B: I'm just as excited for the camping as I am anything. It just like we could just go away and just do. I would say dude stuff but there's. It's not just dude stuff. Like there's women there that rock too. So but just like just go and just do gun stuff and guy stuff and I don't know, there's fire, there's explosions, there's helicopters, there's camping. There's like just. There's nothing about this that is not going to be a lot of fun. [00:15:12] Speaker A: Yeah, that's. That's. Honestly, I'm right there with you, getting to be with you guys, getting to see all the familiar faces and then at the end of the day it's. We're not working but we're still in that Work environment with people that love the NeoMag products, love the faces behind NeoMag, and we get to just fellowship and hopefully. Fingers crossed. You know, I get that cab put on tonight so we have it set up so I can come camping and then we'll be twinsies. [00:15:38] Speaker D: I'm excited for the helicopter. [00:15:40] Speaker B: Yeah. Yes. We're gonna get to. We're gonna get to shoot from a helicopter. I got to do it, like, three, four years ago, something like that. And it'll be. Mike's been in the bird before, but not shoot from it. He's never done it before. Joey that's coming with us has never done it. [00:15:55] Speaker A: So Joey's gonna love. [00:15:56] Speaker B: I'm just excited to watch you guys enjoy. [00:15:58] Speaker D: Can I rent, like, a saw before I do it? [00:16:00] Speaker B: All right. It is. There is Parker Mountain. [00:16:03] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:16:03] Speaker B: Parker Mountain has had. Does have stuff that I've seen people take up. I don't know. [00:16:07] Speaker D: That would be cool. [00:16:07] Speaker A: Get the metas and get this belt fed right there. [00:16:10] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:16:12] Speaker D: Request. [00:16:12] Speaker A: Let's make some request. [00:16:14] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:15] Speaker A: So this episode sponsored by. [00:16:18] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm definitely, definitely looking forward to it. Like I said, I've been kind of getting ready all this week. Yesterday, I had some arts and crafts time. I made. I made some, like, some. Some wood. Sheet wood panels with some holes in it that. For ports that you're gonna have to shoot through. So our drill for this is going to be pretty fun. It's a variation of something I've done before there years ago, but I added some more. More movement to it. It's. So it's going to be a good time. And I mean, like, we do have to work our booth, but, like, it's a shooting bay. Like, we get to. [00:16:52] Speaker D: It's not hard. [00:16:52] Speaker B: It's not hard. [00:16:53] Speaker D: It's talking. [00:16:54] Speaker B: Yeah. It just, you know. [00:16:55] Speaker D: You know, the one thing I'm good at. [00:16:58] Speaker B: That's why you're here. [00:16:58] Speaker A: All right. [00:16:59] Speaker C: Are you. Some would argue you're not even good at that accent. [00:17:03] Speaker B: Oh, I won't. Arg. [00:17:04] Speaker A: It's not. [00:17:05] Speaker B: He's good at the talking. It's the listening to it. [00:17:07] Speaker D: Yeah, I can talk. Doesn't mean you can understand what I say. [00:17:10] Speaker B: Fair enough. [00:17:10] Speaker D: But I can talk all day. [00:17:14] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:17:14] Speaker B: Honestly, that's. I don't remember what I did over the last. Over last weekend, but that's kind of where I've been at. And then, you know, kind of prepping for Tib to be here. And we're going to go get a good, good dinner tonight. I think I'm going To take you guys to my favorite restaurant. [00:17:26] Speaker D: You have a favorite restaurant? [00:17:27] Speaker B: Yeah. Have I told you about that before? [00:17:28] Speaker A: No, never. [00:17:29] Speaker D: Never once. [00:17:29] Speaker B: Timber Lodge and Medina. Nate's been there. [00:17:31] Speaker C: It's wonderful. You're gonna enjoy it. [00:17:33] Speaker B: It is. [00:17:33] Speaker D: What do you recommend? [00:17:35] Speaker A: Everything. [00:17:37] Speaker B: They're known for their prime rib, which. [00:17:39] Speaker C: I've actually never gotten there. [00:17:40] Speaker B: I haven't got for years because our steak is so good. [00:17:42] Speaker C: So it's a. It's a meat. Meat and potatoes I was looking at. [00:17:46] Speaker A: Okay. [00:17:46] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:47] Speaker C: So I almost always listen to their specials, and I think I've always gotten a special. Yeah, the. I'm not gonna say they always have, because I've only been there four or five times, but they've almost always had a ribeye of some sort on the specials list. [00:18:04] Speaker B: Last time we were there for that, they had a tomahawk. [00:18:07] Speaker C: That was fantastic. [00:18:09] Speaker B: The bone is. [00:18:10] Speaker D: That's a lot of meat. [00:18:10] Speaker B: It comes out on a plate that's, like 2ft long, and the bone, like, takes up the whole thing, and there's a big. Oh, yeah. [00:18:15] Speaker C: So, I mean, you can't go wrong with that. They've got their mashed potatoes. They have some fantastic, wonderful. Excuse me. Truffle something or other. [00:18:27] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:18:28] Speaker A: Extra hard before everything, but. [00:18:30] Speaker C: Yeah. So Timber Lodge is fantastic if you are in the Medina Akron area. [00:18:37] Speaker B: Yeah. Even from Cleveland, it's worth. Yeah. [00:18:38] Speaker C: Go to. Go to Timber Lodge. It's well. It's well worth it. But I've never actually. Like I said, I've never had the thing that they're known for being prime rib. I've never actually had that. I've gotten anything else, but I don't. Every time I've gone with people. I've actually only gone with you once. [00:18:52] Speaker B: Yeah, I think so. [00:18:53] Speaker C: I think I've only gone with you once. And when I've gone with people that everyone's gotten a variety of things and. [00:19:02] Speaker B: No one's ever disappointed, nothing's ever been. Yeah, everything's my. My wife usually likes the filet. [00:19:08] Speaker C: Their wedge salad, which is amazing. [00:19:11] Speaker B: So they have cake there. The cake is. This slice you get is as big as your head. [00:19:16] Speaker A: Wow. [00:19:16] Speaker D: I also saw they have adult root beer with, like, Bailey's and Kahlua. [00:19:21] Speaker C: Yeah, it's good. [00:19:22] Speaker D: Delicious. [00:19:22] Speaker C: Yeah, it's really good. [00:19:23] Speaker B: Yeah. So we're gonna have a good time. [00:19:25] Speaker A: They should come into town more often. I've been here almost two years and never been to this place. Just heard of. [00:19:31] Speaker B: I mean, that's true. [00:19:31] Speaker C: The last time. I haven't been there the last time That I went with Greg was when Braden and Dusty left. [00:19:37] Speaker B: Yeah. Which was their send off. [00:19:38] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:19:39] Speaker C: When you guys both came on, so. [00:19:40] Speaker D: And I'll be back in December. [00:19:42] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:19:43] Speaker B: I only really get to go there on my birthday, so I'm taking. I'm taking this as opportunity to take myself there. [00:19:50] Speaker C: It's well worth it. [00:19:51] Speaker B: He's treating himself, not us. [00:19:53] Speaker C: It's well worth it. [00:19:53] Speaker B: It is so good. So that'll be fun. Yeah. I'm sure we'll. I'm sure next week we'll have a lot more to talk about with Ord and kind of recapping it, so we don't need to spend. So last week we talked to Rick, who puts on the whole thing. We don't need to dive too deep into that because we're probably gonna want to talk about it a lot. Yeah. [00:20:09] Speaker C: If you guys didn't join us last week, either live or haven't listened to it, go back and listen. We got to talk with Rick Crawley, who owns Achilles Heel Tactical, who puts on Ord. He had some great things to say. We got to hear a little bit of his background, hear about what he emphasizes in his training, why he does the things the way he does, and just who he is. It was a great conversation. So go check that out. [00:20:35] Speaker B: Yeah. Hearing his story, he shared some stories I said he's never really shared before. So we got some exclusive content. Exclusive. [00:20:42] Speaker A: Exclusive. [00:20:43] Speaker C: Oh, juicy. [00:20:44] Speaker B: All right, so like I said, I got some would you Rathers here. I don't know. These are all great, but we're gonna go through them because I think some of them might be great. [00:20:53] Speaker C: Patriotic Penguin, you should 100% go with your wife for a date night. [00:20:56] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. If you're in it. If you're within an hour, drive. I think you could drive an hour and go there and not be disappointed. Honestly, more. But I think. Wow. I think you're good. I'm excited. Yeah. [00:21:10] Speaker A: I gotta stop eating these meat and cheese boards. [00:21:12] Speaker B: Yeah. All right. So, guys and gals, would you rather live in a world with robots doing all physical labor or AI making all decisions for you robots? [00:21:27] Speaker C: Yeah, I think I don't want AI making my decision. So I guess because this is a either or, I'm going with robots for physical labor simply because I just don't want making my decisions. Nope. [00:21:38] Speaker D: I don't trust anything or anyone enough robots. [00:21:41] Speaker A: It's like that movie Divergent. Like they have to pick which category you're going to. Yeah, I'm going to go with the robots. I don't know if I want a I making all the decisions, I'm with. [00:21:51] Speaker B: You, but at the same time, I don't know that I want robots. Like, so I'm assuming that robots are doing all physical labor. So they are. It's not ideal making and putting together elevators, escalators, building buildings, like getting into things that may not have been put together, listen the right way. [00:22:13] Speaker C: I've been in a lot of sketchy elevators in a lot of hotels that were put together by humans. I already don't trust those either. [00:22:19] Speaker B: So, I mean, there's, there's air. [00:22:22] Speaker A: It's like funeral music, but elevator music. [00:22:26] Speaker B: There's some things I just, I want again. I know that humans are fallible and can also make mistakes, but I don't know. [00:22:34] Speaker D: You got to pick one though. [00:22:37] Speaker B: I mean, I'd probably side with you guys in general, but I'm just trying to think of the other side of this is like, if I say I'm making all decisions, but robots are doing everything downside of that. [00:22:49] Speaker C: But AI is making all decisions, all decisions, all of them. [00:22:53] Speaker B: But I feel like my life. [00:22:55] Speaker C: All decisions. [00:22:55] Speaker B: I make decisions, all decisions. I make all decisions. [00:22:58] Speaker C: A million decisions, all decisions, everyone. [00:23:01] Speaker A: He said, what's the two sides to that? [00:23:04] Speaker B: I'm thankful that I'm, I'm a decisive person and I don't mind making, but I make like when it comes to running a business and having a family. And also like, I make so many decisions every day and a lot of them are really hard. And it would just be nice to not have to make so many decisions. [00:23:18] Speaker D: But do you have that much faith in AI? [00:23:21] Speaker C: What pants to wear today? You don't get to make that decision. [00:23:24] Speaker B: That's not really a decision. [00:23:25] Speaker A: It's like, what do you eat? What are you going to do? [00:23:26] Speaker C: No, that's a decision. [00:23:28] Speaker B: So there are things in my life that I have removed decision making from. I don't know if I could, if I told you guys about this before. Pants in my closet. I have my T shirts in one segment, like long sleeve button ups, hoodies, doesn't count. Pants and shorts. It is whatever's on the left. [00:23:44] Speaker D: I do the same thing. [00:23:44] Speaker B: Whatever's on the left. I don't have clothes away. [00:23:46] Speaker D: They go to the right and I take whatever's to the left. [00:23:48] Speaker B: Exactly. I don't, I don't have that decision. [00:23:52] Speaker C: But what if AI has said they've decided because they can. [00:23:55] Speaker A: You don't get to. [00:23:56] Speaker C: You're wearing pants and it is 120 degrees outside and 100% humidity. That's what the AI decided to do. [00:24:03] Speaker A: They're jumping off a bridge. [00:24:04] Speaker B: I guess what I'm saying is AI doesn't have to make a decision because that's not a decision that needs to be made. So AI would not be picking my clothes because there's not a decision to be made. [00:24:12] Speaker C: AI is making all decisions. [00:24:13] Speaker A: Do you eat or do you not eat? Is that a decision? [00:24:16] Speaker D: They may pick what clothes you have in the closet too. [00:24:19] Speaker C: That's what I'm saying. [00:24:20] Speaker D: You may come to work in like a tutu. [00:24:21] Speaker B: I was looking at some of the comments here. What's some of the comments here? We got. Dan says AI is already doing that. What is he saying that to? [00:24:33] Speaker C: He's saying that they're already making all the decisions. [00:24:35] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. Robots. But I generally choose too quick and then second guess after the decision. Yeah. I think if robot penguin says. I think if robots take care of monotonous or laborious tasks, it could help us focus on more important things. Yeah. If you don't. Straight to jail. [00:24:55] Speaker A: Straight to jail. [00:24:56] Speaker B: Yeah. So maybe like now again, this question did worded as all decision making. Exactly. [00:25:02] Speaker C: So that's what I'm using that line. [00:25:04] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:25:05] Speaker C: You. You made it a very definitive thing. I did all physical labor. [00:25:09] Speaker B: You know what the funny thing is? [00:25:10] Speaker C: Aid. All physical labor. All decisions. I'm going. All physical labor. I don't want them making my pants decisions. I would like to decide what pants. [00:25:22] Speaker B: But I like to do labor too. Like I like to make things and I like to have your cake and eat it. [00:25:26] Speaker A: To not be going to have a cake tonight, though. [00:25:28] Speaker C: This was a. Would you rather you set it up? [00:25:33] Speaker A: Set it up. [00:25:33] Speaker D: Stink intentionally. Pick a bite of one. [00:25:37] Speaker B: Yeah. There are pros and cons to both. Would you rather spend a year. [00:25:41] Speaker C: He didn't answer. [00:25:42] Speaker B: I don't. Would you rather spend a year exploring space on a small ship or a year deep sea diving in uncharted ocean? [00:25:50] Speaker C: Space. [00:25:51] Speaker D: Say that again. [00:25:52] Speaker B: Space or oceans for a year. [00:25:54] Speaker A: Space. [00:25:57] Speaker D: In a small rocket ship. [00:25:59] Speaker B: Yes, it did say in a small ship. [00:26:03] Speaker D: Spaceship. [00:26:04] Speaker C: It doesn't actually specify the size of whatever sub you're in. [00:26:07] Speaker B: Yeah, it doesn't. [00:26:08] Speaker C: This could be massive. [00:26:09] Speaker A: But what could be small could be really big too. For a spaceship. [00:26:14] Speaker D: I'll take my chances underwater. [00:26:17] Speaker C: Going underwater. [00:26:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:19] Speaker A: I don't know. After all that ocean gate. I'm. I'm good. [00:26:23] Speaker B: I feel like there's maybe more to see underwater or not. [00:26:28] Speaker D: That's how deep you get. [00:26:29] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:26:29] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:26:30] Speaker D: Get deep. [00:26:30] Speaker A: There's nothing the absence of light. [00:26:32] Speaker B: But space, I mean, how far into space am I going? Because you have to go. The closest thing is the moon. Right. So that's pretty. [00:26:41] Speaker A: We haven't been back since. [00:26:43] Speaker D: Don't get going with that foil. [00:26:46] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm sure you can get there in a year. [00:26:48] Speaker C: The moon. [00:26:49] Speaker B: Oh yeah. [00:26:49] Speaker C: You'll be there in like several hours. [00:26:51] Speaker B: A couple hours, I think. Only if AI says that's probably beyond that. And then you get into the whole space time continuum thing, then you come back and it's actually been five years. I, I don't. That just blows my mind. [00:27:03] Speaker A: I think drinking in space too, like the, the, I guess deformation or the change of your body because like you're. You have. You would think you would elongate. But they've talked about the studies of it. Like your spine elongates because there's no pressure, no gravity. Vice versa. [00:27:17] Speaker C: There is an interesting thing. So I actually need to look into the results of it. But there were two, not two. There's a set of identical twins, both astronauts. Yeah, I remember one went up to space for a year. He lived in space, or maybe it was six months. I can't remember the length of time. It was a lengthy period of time. And the goal was to see what genetically changed over that period of time because they're identical. So genetically the exact same. And the discussion was what changed between that period of time. Now I didn't get to see what the results were. I actually got to meet the guy at a conference. He came and spoke at the conference. Really, really neat. Interesting discussion, but super, super interesting from a perspective of they're identical. There has to be some shift of some sort. Even if it's just physiologically. Maybe not at the genetic level, but physiologically. Some shifts while you're in space. For again, I can't remember if it was six months or a year. It was a lengthy period of time. So look into that Google search. It'll pop up. Super interesting. But I vote space. Deep sea scares me. [00:28:24] Speaker B: Deep sea? Yeah. I think I'm going space. [00:28:25] Speaker C: I'm going space. It's small. I don't know. Yeah, I'm not claustrophobic. My. My camper's pretty small. It's fine. Don't give me my kids. I'll be all right. [00:28:37] Speaker A: Could you adjust your floating zero gravity? [00:28:41] Speaker D: I don't know. [00:28:42] Speaker C: I love floating in the salt floats and that's essentially zero gravity. So that sounds great to me. [00:28:48] Speaker A: Now would you live underwater? [00:28:51] Speaker C: Absolutely not. [00:28:52] Speaker A: Have you seen the like a hotels or Apartments or like, oh, place at night. [00:28:56] Speaker B: Are there mermaids? [00:28:58] Speaker A: Oh, Lord. [00:28:59] Speaker D: I'm telling your wife. [00:29:00] Speaker B: Oh, she knows I have a thing for Ariel. [00:29:04] Speaker D: Please leave it at that. We do not want any more specifics. [00:29:07] Speaker B: Ariel is my first crush and I've not got over her. [00:29:09] Speaker C: Dan, never to watch. [00:29:10] Speaker A: It's like Jasmine. [00:29:11] Speaker D: Daisy Duke was my first crush. [00:29:12] Speaker C: Patriotic Pangolin also agrees. Space, because it's the final frontier. He clearly has watched Star Trek. Like some of us. [00:29:20] Speaker B: Dan says underwater is just space with fish. [00:29:25] Speaker D: Not wrong. A little more pressure. [00:29:26] Speaker A: No stars. [00:29:28] Speaker B: That's funny. [00:29:29] Speaker C: But never to what though, Dan? Never to space or never to the. To the ocean? Which one? That's. That's very. Doesn't really give us an answer. What's the real question? [00:29:40] Speaker B: All right, while he's waiting for that, we're going to go to the next one. Would you rather give up your smartphone for a year or your favorite food for forever? [00:29:47] Speaker C: Smartphone for a year? [00:29:48] Speaker B: Yeah, that one. [00:29:48] Speaker C: That's not even a question. [00:29:49] Speaker B: That was pretty easy. [00:29:50] Speaker A: Smartphone. [00:29:51] Speaker C: I would just give up a phone. Doesn't it like, no phone. I would just not have a phone for a year. [00:29:57] Speaker D: I'd like to have like a basic flip for emergencies, but I'd be fine without it. [00:30:01] Speaker C: I can, I 100% could go without the phone for a year. [00:30:04] Speaker D: I do stay at home all day too. [00:30:05] Speaker B: So I say that I would like to not have a phone, but I honestly think I would have a hard time with it, at least at first. [00:30:11] Speaker D: In the beginning. [00:30:12] Speaker A: In the beginning, I think you would. [00:30:14] Speaker C: It's interesting because actually the one of the camping trips I have, the one, the one that's backpacking, is essentially a phone device free event. It's a men's retreat down in Cincinnati. I put my phone, I take my watch off. I don't have any devices with me. I leave it in the truck on. It'll be Friday at like 2. I'll put it all in my truck. I won't see it again until 2 or 3 o' clock on Sunday. And there's a period of time for like an hour or two where you're like, oh, you want, you've just. You're used to having something and when you get back to the truck on Sunday, you're like, oh, I don't want to touch it. Like, I just don't want to turn it back on. [00:30:57] Speaker D: It's dirty. [00:30:58] Speaker C: And I haven't talked to my wife, I haven't talked to friends. I haven't talked to my parents or anything. And you're like, well, I don't need to, though. And it's not that I don't miss my wife or my kids or anything like that, but I'm like, I'm going to go home and see him. Short of some disaster having happened, which there's ways for them to get a hold of you at the event if something bad happens, blah, blah, blah. But you can just. Outside of that, disconnect. You can disconnect. It's actually not that big a deal. It's like, well, we live for you plenty of life without a device in your pocket all the time. [00:31:30] Speaker B: And I've done that for some weekends, especially this year. I took some weekends where I turned my phone off and didn't touch it all weekend. And honestly, that was great. I was fine for the weekend. [00:31:40] Speaker A: So that's why you didn't text me back. [00:31:42] Speaker B: Well, that's hard. There is. Not really, but there's. Yeah, for the weekend it was great. But I think a year, I think there would be that, like after like a month or something like that first month. I don't know, I feel like it. [00:31:57] Speaker D: Would be hard for you to run a business. [00:31:58] Speaker B: Like, there would be a very. Yeah, there'd be a nice part. Yeah, that's. That's. [00:32:02] Speaker C: Well, and that's some of the comments in here. Dan said, you know, if I didn't run a business, I wouldn't have social media at all. Although he also said, I'll give up my phone now for free. [00:32:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:11] Speaker C: Which I get. Patriotic pangolin. Said I've got a lot of favorite foods. I think I might be able to spare one. I don't have enough favorites to be able to spare one. Oh, sorry. [00:32:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:19] Speaker D: Ribeye or something along those lines. [00:32:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:22] Speaker A: I love food too much. [00:32:23] Speaker D: I'm not giving up steak for life. [00:32:24] Speaker B: No. [00:32:26] Speaker C: Not forever. [00:32:27] Speaker B: Nope. [00:32:27] Speaker C: Can't do it. If it was a year, sure, maybe not forever. [00:32:31] Speaker B: Sorry. [00:32:32] Speaker C: Just can't do it forever. But no, the phone, I just. [00:32:36] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't. [00:32:36] Speaker C: I don't love it so much that I want to keep. [00:32:39] Speaker D: It's a love hate. [00:32:40] Speaker A: Yeah, for sure. [00:32:41] Speaker C: We've talked about this. I think we've talked about this before. [00:32:43] Speaker B: I think we have it. But I. I think. I think when we think of phone, I think at least I am thinking this. And you guys tell me when I think of phone, I think of social media. Right. Like the phone itself. Honestly, I play some games, I text some people, but it's mostly this, like, social media that takes. Takes my time on a phone. Like, so, like, what do you guys. [00:33:04] Speaker C: Like if we could go back and we've also had this discussion, if we could go back to the phone being just a communication device that made phone calls and texts and didn't. No more emails. Social media on your phone wasn't a thing. Games wasn't a thing. Like all of the extracurricular device add ons that our smartphones have become, then a phone wouldn't be a big deal. I mean, I, I probably texted more than I should have in high school, but I wasn't glued to my phone. [00:33:40] Speaker D: I missed my BlackBerry. [00:33:41] Speaker A: Oh, man. [00:33:42] Speaker C: Well, but even, but even your BlackBerry you could do emails on. Could. I don't know if you did, but you could. My point is even my emails, to a certain extent, I, I have a proclivity to go in and just delete emails because I don't like seeing having like having a little number, not judging. So that even sucks my attention. Not because I'm trying every email, but just because I'm like, oh, there's emails there that I don't want them. So I'm going to open my phone and delete emails. It's not that I get notifications, I just don't want them. [00:34:13] Speaker A: Well, we're the last generation to not have phones too. Growing up without them. Right. There was a big, vast period of time, maybe for y' all over here, Nate and I, a little bit younger and fruitful, but the timeframe that we didn't have phones at all that we could be hands on. And what did our parents. For me, my parents like, go outside, get lost. Like, here's a four wheeler, here's something with an engine. [00:34:34] Speaker D: Go outside and do something. [00:34:35] Speaker A: Right. Come down. [00:34:37] Speaker D: I think he wants to fight, though. I think he's. He just called us old and them young. [00:34:41] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [00:34:42] Speaker A: I don't, I don't know what you're talking about. He's like, he didn't text me back. [00:34:46] Speaker C: But the, the point just being if I. If. And it wouldn't be easy, truly. Like we say, it's easy. [00:34:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:34:53] Speaker C: I'm not actually arguing that it would be easy, but it would be nice to be able to just go back to a phone. [00:34:58] Speaker B: Something inside of you that's like. I wish. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. [00:35:02] Speaker C: Correct. [00:35:03] Speaker A: You could just hang up on somebody now. [00:35:05] Speaker C: I also feeling of it, love the fact that I can pull my phone out and listen to music like that or listen to a podcast or any of those things. Like those things would go away in this situation, which would suck. Having to have an ipod again. Like well, that would blow. You know, now I got to download. [00:35:21] Speaker B: Music and load singles, you know, songs and albums at each. At a time. Yeah. But yeah, there are things that just. The instant access to information. It's just. Yeah, there. [00:35:31] Speaker C: So there's. [00:35:31] Speaker B: Some of those things would be. [00:35:32] Speaker C: Yeah, they're pieces down my space. [00:35:34] Speaker B: I have to start reading books. [00:35:36] Speaker D: Bring back limewire. [00:35:38] Speaker A: Limewire music. Those are the good days. I mean, we got a lot on the CDs. [00:35:43] Speaker C: We do have a lot of interesting. Well, from. From Dan and Patriotic Penguin, but both of them are talking about being able to instantly communicate with. With their spouse. Get that. That is really nice. I mean, I've been texting with my wife today, which is. Been lovely, but could easily delete Internet and socials. Right. It comes back to that. That is the thing that sucks. Time. Dan goes as far as saying, just shut the Internet down for a few years and let the world heal. Fair enough. [00:36:10] Speaker B: But yeah, Dan, I texted you back. [00:36:12] Speaker C: Because I love Michael. You didn't text Dan back. [00:36:14] Speaker A: This is like two podcasts ago now that. [00:36:16] Speaker C: But you didn't text. You didn't text Dan back. [00:36:17] Speaker A: It was in the middle of the podcast. [00:36:18] Speaker C: So there you go. [00:36:19] Speaker A: And I got a holster. [00:36:20] Speaker D: He's very disappointed, but I texted him. [00:36:21] Speaker B: Back because I like Dan. [00:36:22] Speaker A: Yeah, well, I see how it is. [00:36:24] Speaker C: Dan, that doesn't count. You can't. You can't. You can't play that card that your wife works with you. That doesn't count. [00:36:31] Speaker A: I mean, that. To be able to have the instant ability to contact somebody of importance or priority or your family. Absolutely. But I almost. I want to pause and ask, like, we still got a hold of you back in the day before then, like, there was if we needed you, like. [00:36:48] Speaker B: Or you just didn't. And that was okay that you couldn't have access to me all the time. It would have you get a hold. [00:36:54] Speaker C: Of the people you need to eventually. [00:36:56] Speaker A: Right. [00:36:56] Speaker B: If you wanted to find me, you look for my bike in somebody's front yard. That's how you found me. [00:37:00] Speaker A: Yeah. As a kid, for sure. [00:37:01] Speaker B: Yeah. Or out in front of a store or whatever. That's how you found me. All right, so I think this next one's interesting. Would you rather live in a tiny house in your dream location? And this is, like, tiny, like the size of this room. It's a closet or a mansion in a place you dislike. [00:37:18] Speaker D: Oh, it's easy. [00:37:19] Speaker C: You know, I know exactly where you go. Give me the tiny house in St. John. [00:37:24] Speaker D: In St. John. And I don't Care. I'm just gonna sleep in the corner and spend the rest of the time outside. Yeah, I will be at the beach. [00:37:31] Speaker B: Yes. [00:37:32] Speaker D: Tiny house. [00:37:33] Speaker A: Does it matter how much land you get with a tiny house? [00:37:37] Speaker D: Don't care. [00:37:38] Speaker A: Like, can you have a tiny house in, like, a hundred acres? [00:37:41] Speaker C: It says dream location. [00:37:43] Speaker A: Okay, yeah, give me the tiny house. [00:37:44] Speaker B: I will live in a shed down by the river on a thousand acres of Montana. Done. [00:37:50] Speaker A: I just want 10. [00:37:52] Speaker B: My horses and everything can have a bigger home than I do. I don't care. [00:37:55] Speaker A: Yes. [00:37:57] Speaker B: Yeah, I picked tiny house. Dream location. What do you think, Nate? [00:38:04] Speaker C: Depends on if my kids are with me or not. [00:38:07] Speaker B: Family has to go with you. [00:38:09] Speaker C: No, I would do a tiny house in a dream location for sure. A mansion. I don't want a mansion now. Like, I wouldn't even if you switch this to be a tiny house if it was a tiny house in a dream location or a mansion in a dream location, I still don't think I would pick the mansion simply because I don't want a mansion. [00:38:27] Speaker D: A lot of work. [00:38:27] Speaker C: It's a lot of house. [00:38:28] Speaker B: There's something I want to say, but I'm not going to call it what we. What about the balconies? [00:38:33] Speaker C: Like, there's no the balconies. [00:38:35] Speaker B: There's no balconies. [00:38:35] Speaker C: There's no balcony on it. There could be a balcony on a tiny house. [00:38:38] Speaker A: Absolutely. It could be an. A frame with a little balcony. [00:38:41] Speaker C: It could be balconies in a tiny house. [00:38:43] Speaker D: Tiny balcony. [00:38:44] Speaker C: That's a whole discussion that Greg and I have had. [00:38:48] Speaker A: So do you want a balcony out front? [00:38:50] Speaker C: Balconies for activities? We'll just put it that way. But no, I don't want, like, a mansion. Truly a mansion, especially the ones Greg and I have looked at. Huge, massive properties in Montana and Wyoming and Idaho and all these things. They're amazing. They're amazing properties worth millions and millions and millions of dollars. But who actually wants to take care of. [00:39:10] Speaker D: You have to hire. When you have property that vast, you hire people. [00:39:13] Speaker C: You hire people. [00:39:14] Speaker D: You have to have a staff and. [00:39:16] Speaker B: Well, to be fair, most of those properties had another house on the property for the staff. [00:39:19] Speaker C: For the staff, which I'm like, I'll live in. Go live in the staff's house. [00:39:25] Speaker D: Airbnb. The big house. [00:39:26] Speaker C: Yeah, exactly. [00:39:27] Speaker D: Live in the staff house. [00:39:28] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:28] Speaker C: I mean, I don't want a mansion. I'd rather. I think I'd. Again, tiny house being relative, depending on that situation. But in this. Would you rather I would pick up a tiny house in an Ideal location. [00:39:41] Speaker B: And to answer Dan's question, yes, they're both free. Like, there's no. Yeah. Cost involved here. [00:39:46] Speaker D: Can I take the mansion in a place I hate, sell it and buy a normal house in a place I love? [00:39:52] Speaker B: No. No. [00:39:52] Speaker D: Bending the rules a little. [00:39:54] Speaker B: Yeah, but you don't have to, because there's no. Like, either way, this is free, so the money isn't part of the. [00:40:00] Speaker D: Yeah, but I can still sell the mansion. [00:40:01] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm just saying, if you don't like one, get rid of it. Get a better one. [00:40:05] Speaker C: Now you guys are just. It's. Would you rather. If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying, but no. Yeah, for sure. Tiny house in an ideal location. [00:40:14] Speaker A: The next one to my. [00:40:15] Speaker B: Would you rather be able to fly like a bird or breathe underwater like a fish? [00:40:19] Speaker A: Guys know what I'm doing. [00:40:20] Speaker D: Yeah, I know. [00:40:21] Speaker C: Yeah, Well, I know what you would do, but you need to say it, because not everyone will know I am. [00:40:26] Speaker A: Flying like a bird. I'm going to not even have to flap those wings, though. I'm just Superman and I'm gonna do this. I probably shouldn't do that if somebody's gonna interpret that as Superman in the movie. [00:40:37] Speaker C: Like, you just want to wear your. [00:40:37] Speaker B: Underwear on the outside. [00:40:38] Speaker A: I wear a cape. And a cape. And a cape. Captain Underpants. [00:40:42] Speaker D: Can it be a Neomag cape? Can we sponsor that flag? [00:40:46] Speaker A: Can we have a Neomag parachute? Greg, please. [00:40:49] Speaker D: Neomag undies. [00:40:50] Speaker A: Yes. One day dreams will come true. Yes, I would fly. It's. I gotta get. You guys, at least go to the wind tunnel with me. Would you guys do that? [00:40:58] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, I've a wind tunnel for sure. [00:41:01] Speaker A: All right, well, I know you've jumped. You've had many jumps, but those were uncomfortable jumps. [00:41:06] Speaker C: So the jumping's not. [00:41:07] Speaker B: Not the problem. [00:41:09] Speaker C: Hitting the ground, that sucks. [00:41:11] Speaker D: I don't know which one would be more useful, but I think now, do I have gills if I'm breathing underwater? I guess, because if I have gills. [00:41:18] Speaker B: Now, like a fish. [00:41:20] Speaker D: So, yeah, if his gills. I'll pass. What if the gills are breathing underwater like Aquaman? I'll take. I want it. I want breathe underwater. [00:41:27] Speaker A: But you could still get eaten by something. At least in the sky. I mean, the worst case. [00:41:32] Speaker C: Have you seen a golden eagle? They're bigger than you are. [00:41:34] Speaker D: You ever seen sharknado? [00:41:35] Speaker C: There's sharks up there. [00:41:41] Speaker A: Okay, fair enough. I'm gonna be hit by a fish in the sky. [00:41:44] Speaker C: I actually don't know. I would. My initial answer would be fly Like a bird. Simply because it makes transportation simpler. [00:41:51] Speaker D: It would be so cool. [00:41:52] Speaker B: No more gas. [00:41:53] Speaker C: I could get to Rhode island quick. [00:41:54] Speaker B: The practicality of it. [00:41:55] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:41:56] Speaker B: Seems great. [00:41:57] Speaker C: There's some fun. There's also fun with it. I've had dreams about flying and it's always wonderful, but. I know you don't like the water, but I'm actually like you, Tib. I love the water. I love being in the water. [00:42:07] Speaker B: I think I would like it more if I didn't think I was gonna die every time I get in. [00:42:12] Speaker D: If you could breathe, it's less likely you're gonna die. [00:42:14] Speaker B: But it's also the sand. I don't care for sand, but I'm surprised it's not the. I'll go back. Which answer did you give Tib? [00:42:20] Speaker D: Oh, the water. [00:42:21] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:42:21] Speaker B: Okay. I was gonna say. Yeah, that's what I would think you would want. Yeah. [00:42:24] Speaker A: Unless you had guilds. [00:42:25] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:42:26] Speaker D: The gills would kinda. You know. I don't think my wife would like that. [00:42:28] Speaker B: It's gonna work. [00:42:29] Speaker C: Say anything about gills, so just go. Yeah. Normal tip. [00:42:32] Speaker B: He's gotta wear a turtleneck all the time. [00:42:34] Speaker C: No, Margie. Margie says she wants to fly like an eagle. [00:42:39] Speaker A: Yes. [00:42:40] Speaker C: There it is. But no. Yeah, I. I don't know, man. That's a. That's a hard one. I'm not sure what my answer would be. [00:42:49] Speaker B: Hawkman is a dope character. [00:42:51] Speaker C: Fly like a bird, I guess. [00:42:53] Speaker D: I have a question. Can I. Can I sneak in and do one go? [00:42:56] Speaker C: Sure. [00:42:57] Speaker D: Would you rather drink this awful spicy water? [00:43:01] Speaker C: Nope. [00:43:01] Speaker D: Or die from dehydration. [00:43:03] Speaker C: Oh. [00:43:04] Speaker B: Oh, wow. That got dark. [00:43:06] Speaker C: Well, I guess I'm. [00:43:07] Speaker A: I guess I'm gonna drink that nastiness. [00:43:09] Speaker D: So this is liquid death. It's so bad flavored sparkling water. And it's awful. [00:43:15] Speaker B: It's so good. [00:43:16] Speaker D: It's awful. [00:43:17] Speaker C: I think you're the only one that likes it here. [00:43:19] Speaker D: What makes it spicy? Like, it's gross. [00:43:21] Speaker B: It says. I think it was. I think it's like habanero. It actually has a warning on it. [00:43:25] Speaker D: It's awful. [00:43:26] Speaker B: So I have had. I've had. I've had people over my house. I've had. Taste it. That actually, Jason Shipley really liked it. [00:43:33] Speaker C: I didn't say you were the only person. I said the only one person here. [00:43:36] Speaker B: That's because you guys don't have the sophisticated palette that I have. [00:43:39] Speaker C: You're full of crap. [00:43:41] Speaker B: Compared to whiskey, this is nothing. So I can just chug this. [00:43:43] Speaker C: I like whiskey. [00:43:44] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, I like whiskey, too, but that Is whiskey now. [00:43:47] Speaker C: Tib doesn't like whiskey. [00:43:48] Speaker D: Not real whiskey, girly whiskey. [00:43:51] Speaker A: Jameson, he said. I heard they had root beer for adults. [00:43:56] Speaker D: Root Bear, Bailey's and Kahlua. [00:43:58] Speaker B: Would you rather have super strength or super intelligence, move big things or new? Lots of things. [00:44:07] Speaker C: I'm going super intelligence. I can build something that makes me be able to lift and move big things. Iron man, super intelligence. [00:44:17] Speaker B: I'm already pretty dang smart. I don't know what more I could really. [00:44:20] Speaker A: I thought you were thinking opposite. [00:44:22] Speaker D: I'm thinking super intelligence because I'm not the smartest, so I have a lot to gain there. I think super, like, imagine what you could accomplish if you could predict and just if. [00:44:32] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:44:32] Speaker A: Well, there's got to be a flip side. [00:44:34] Speaker B: I don't think, I don't think you're. I don't think you have. I don't think you're able to, like, tell the future. [00:44:39] Speaker D: No, not psychic. But if you were that intelligent and you could see patterns in society and stock markets, be able to. There's so many different things you could do if you were the smartest man in the room. [00:44:52] Speaker A: I think the flip side to that, too, would you would face the downside of it. If you know so much, it's almost like you know so much it'll get you in trouble. But it's also, you know so much or recognize things and traits from other people that it almost pushes you away from the interaction of wanting to deal with other people. [00:45:11] Speaker C: I already do that. [00:45:13] Speaker A: Highly intelligent person already. [00:45:15] Speaker C: I already deal with that. So, Daniel, Batman doesn't beat Superman by strength. [00:45:20] Speaker A: There you go. There you go. [00:45:22] Speaker B: We're gonna go down that rabbit hole. [00:45:23] Speaker C: Oh, Dan's the one that said it. I didn't. [00:45:25] Speaker A: So who wins? [00:45:27] Speaker C: I, I, that's why, I mean, you can do a lot with, like, super strength is cool. It's fun. There's some neat things you can do with it, but at the end of the day, you can lift stuff. [00:45:40] Speaker D: I pick it up and put it down. [00:45:41] Speaker A: You had a rustic bolt, but it couldn't get loose. You just. [00:45:44] Speaker B: I wouldn't have to work out anymore. [00:45:45] Speaker A: You would not have to work out. [00:45:47] Speaker C: You don't have to work out now. [00:45:48] Speaker D: Working out. [00:45:49] Speaker B: I do have to, because I'm getting old and my body's going to break down if I don't. In this case, I don't have to worry about that. I have super strength. I'm just. [00:45:57] Speaker C: I mean, your dad's old. He doesn't work out. [00:45:58] Speaker B: He complains a lot and he's falling apart. And he's falling apart. You're proving my point. [00:46:06] Speaker C: No, I mean, but that's the. For me, I think I just, I would rather be super smart. Yes, Dan, all of DC sucks. Marvel's better. [00:46:15] Speaker B: That's true. [00:46:15] Speaker C: So Iron Man. [00:46:16] Speaker A: But Iron Man, Just saying. Yeah, I had to go with the intelligence. I mean, there's the gentleman. I don't know what his company was, but he made his fortune. And you guys are probably gonna know it, but he spent, I don't know, probably the last decade trying to reverse his age. And he's like a 50 year old man, but his genetic build and blood work and everything else is reporting him of like a mid 20 year old. Like he has spent millions on his health. [00:46:38] Speaker C: He's trying to charge money on your health. [00:46:40] Speaker A: Well, when you have that kind of money, but. Or that intelligence, that builds to that point. And if that's something that you want to pursue or that endeavor. [00:46:46] Speaker B: But I mean, so wait, wait, wait. If I have super intelligence, I could probably figure out how to have super fly like a bird or breathe underwater while I'm living in my tiny house, while I'm living on my mansion on my dream property. And I create my own robots to do my labor for me. [00:47:08] Speaker A: Sounds like you planned this out. [00:47:10] Speaker B: I'm just walking this back, just living the good life. Okay, I can figure it out. All right. Would you rather fight a shark in open water or a bear in the forest? [00:47:18] Speaker C: Hold on, before we continue, your dad just jumped in. [00:47:20] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:47:21] Speaker C: Yep. He just said. Hold on just a second. He's insulted by your falling apart comment. [00:47:26] Speaker B: Greg, prove me wrong. [00:47:31] Speaker A: Use your head. [00:47:34] Speaker D: I say that all the time. [00:47:36] Speaker C: Greg. Welcome to the. Welcome to the live Greg on YouTube. He's on. On Facebook. [00:47:42] Speaker B: Oh, Facebook. [00:47:43] Speaker C: But he just jumped in. Welcome, Greg Davis Senior. [00:47:45] Speaker A: Welcome. [00:47:46] Speaker C: Dad, apparently you're old and falling apart according to. [00:47:49] Speaker B: Yeah, come use the gym that I have for you. [00:47:51] Speaker C: Come beat him up. You can. I believe in you. [00:47:53] Speaker B: We'll help. [00:47:54] Speaker A: Yes. See, I called you old and now you're calling your dad old. [00:47:59] Speaker B: He's my old man. [00:48:00] Speaker C: All right, anyways, anyway. [00:48:01] Speaker B: Would you rather fight a shark in open water or a bear in the forest with only a spear? [00:48:06] Speaker C: Oh, awful. [00:48:10] Speaker A: How well can you swim? [00:48:12] Speaker B: Yeah, not very well. I think I'm going bear in the forest. [00:48:17] Speaker C: I'm going shark. They only have one end. That is dangerous. Right, okay. Whereas a bear has four appendages that can hurt you and a mouth. I just have to. I just have to avoid one end of a shark. [00:48:34] Speaker D: Hard to move in the water. [00:48:35] Speaker B: Yes. I can't move very well in the water. [00:48:39] Speaker D: Move as well as a bear. None of us can move as well as a bear on land either. [00:48:42] Speaker B: I can move better. [00:48:43] Speaker C: Yes. Dan, you have a spear for the shark as well. [00:48:46] Speaker B: I feel like. I feel like if I'm going. If I'm going to fail, if I'm going to lose, I'm going to lose faster against the bear as well. And I don't want to have to. I don't know. [00:48:54] Speaker C: Have you seen. Have you seen shark bites? They take out huge chunks. Bears just like shred you, whereas a shark will literally take. [00:49:03] Speaker B: Bite you in half chunks out of you. [00:49:05] Speaker C: I'm just saying I'm going for a shark. I think I could take a shark again. I just have to avoid your mouth. Bears, you got to avoid a lot of appendages in a mouth. [00:49:13] Speaker B: Either way, you just got to poke him in the eye. When you win. [00:49:18] Speaker C: He just use it on himself. [00:49:21] Speaker B: Just fall in your own spear. [00:49:22] Speaker D: Smart shark. [00:49:26] Speaker A: I'm going with the bear. I've been in the ocean, I've swam with fishes, done all of that, and I enjoy it a lot. I really enjoy spear fishing. That is such a blast. However, I've drank salt water. It does not taste good. Not being able to breathe and then having something bite you that potentially puts me in shock and something that I can't breathe in or on. Yeah, no, thank you. I would. I'd rather have a fighting chance or a retreating chance. Whereas in the water, I can't move, no matter what, fast enough to get away. Even if I pro and prod. I'm just going to tick you off and you're going to keep coming back or hopefully you swim away. But I'm. The advantage of me getting away is very slim. Whereas a bear. I got trees, I got things to throw, I got the spear. And hopefully my little chicken legs will keep me going. [00:50:20] Speaker B: I got my one move already planned out with the bear. [00:50:22] Speaker A: Kick him in between the legs. [00:50:23] Speaker B: No, I have my spear like this and as it comes at me when I fall on the ground, the spear, back of the spear sticks on the ground. [00:50:29] Speaker A: It's like amusing. [00:50:30] Speaker B: And then it comes at me and. [00:50:31] Speaker D: It goes, see, like, my thought was what? [00:50:35] Speaker C: Sure, cartoon. [00:50:37] Speaker A: He's watched too many movies. [00:50:39] Speaker D: What type of bear is it and what type of shark? Because black or a brown bear? There's a very big difference. You're talking like a, you know, bull shark or a great white or something. [00:50:51] Speaker A: Or a tiger shark. [00:50:52] Speaker D: Yeah, those, you know, Like, I'll take my chances with a black bear. Over. [00:50:56] Speaker C: Listen. [00:50:57] Speaker D: Over a grizzly. [00:50:59] Speaker C: But the wide variety of shark versus the much lower, smaller variety of bear, you have a much smaller percentage chance of any sort of bear versus the huge, wide variety of shark. A little like, reef shark, whatever. [00:51:18] Speaker A: That's what I'm saying. [00:51:19] Speaker C: That's why I'm saying survival chance against shark. It doesn't specify the shark. So, yeah, I'll take a shark every day of the week. [00:51:24] Speaker A: What if it's a baby bear? [00:51:26] Speaker D: What if it's a polar bear? [00:51:27] Speaker C: Oh, God. [00:51:28] Speaker A: Oh, man. [00:51:29] Speaker B: It'd be awful. What if it's a gummy bear? [00:51:31] Speaker D: Oh, see, now it talks. [00:51:34] Speaker C: Here's the problem. You like to make your gummy bears hard. No. [00:51:37] Speaker B: What? [00:51:38] Speaker C: No spear. [00:51:39] Speaker B: I like to freeze them. Okay. [00:51:43] Speaker C: Sorry. [00:51:44] Speaker A: All right. [00:51:45] Speaker C: I didn't. Somewhere real dark. A spear doesn't. Will not penetrate his frozen gummy bears. They are so extra chewy. Why do you so gross. [00:51:55] Speaker B: Because they're extra chewy. [00:51:58] Speaker A: Like, do you suck on it and chew it? [00:52:00] Speaker B: All right, hold on. [00:52:01] Speaker D: I just dump mine in vodka. [00:52:02] Speaker C: Dan. Dan. [00:52:04] Speaker B: I was just gonna say that. [00:52:05] Speaker C: Dan bears beats Battlestar Galactica. Dan has the best. [00:52:09] Speaker B: I was waiting. [00:52:11] Speaker C: Comment of the day. [00:52:11] Speaker B: I was waiting for the pause. And I was gonna say that. [00:52:14] Speaker A: That's funny. [00:52:15] Speaker C: Well, I think that's it. [00:52:16] Speaker B: Penguin says he'll take a nurse shark, so Nurse Nerf. [00:52:21] Speaker A: Nurse shark. What's the little sucker shark? The little tiny ones are just like. [00:52:27] Speaker C: Pleco Jack, Happy Bob Brown, Polar bear. Take the shark black, then bear. Okay, fair enough. All right, next one. [00:52:35] Speaker B: Would you rather be the last human alive on Earth or be surrounded by humans? But everyone is zombies that you must constantly run from. [00:52:42] Speaker C: All right, I just. I need to make sure. I understand. [00:52:44] Speaker B: Yeah, let's talk about it with zombies. [00:52:48] Speaker C: So you're not really surrounded by humans because they're zombies. So you're surrounded by zombies. [00:52:53] Speaker B: I guess. [00:52:55] Speaker D: I think that's what they're trying to say. [00:52:56] Speaker B: Yes. Yeah. [00:52:57] Speaker C: Okay, I'm going. Last human. You're really the last human regardless. [00:53:03] Speaker D: Yeah, but are you alone or zombies chasing you is the question. [00:53:06] Speaker B: Yeah, that sounds boring. [00:53:07] Speaker A: What type of zombies? [00:53:09] Speaker B: I kind of want some zombies to pick off when I'm bored. [00:53:11] Speaker C: You could go fight a bear if you're bored. What if you're the last human? [00:53:15] Speaker A: What if there's no bears because the zombies ate the bears? [00:53:18] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't know. [00:53:21] Speaker D: Without. Without knowing the specifics, I can't choose the zombies. I have to say alone. [00:53:25] Speaker C: I'm just Going. [00:53:25] Speaker D: Because if it's like those really slow zombies and you can just. [00:53:29] Speaker C: Okay, but if it's like World War Z zombies. [00:53:36] Speaker D: I'll be alone. Thanks. [00:53:37] Speaker B: That's how you have to constantly run from them. Yeah. No. Yeah. [00:53:39] Speaker C: That's exhausting. [00:53:40] Speaker B: That does sound exhausting. [00:53:41] Speaker D: I'll just go sit on the beach alone and just eat coconut. [00:53:44] Speaker C: I was gonna say, like, if, you know, if it's one or the other. I don't want to constantly be battling zombies. If I can just be alone. I'm the last person. Regardless. There is. I'm the last person, so I might as well just be alone. It's fine. [00:53:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:53:59] Speaker A: I think I'd get bored. [00:54:01] Speaker B: You would. [00:54:01] Speaker A: Oh, it does sound so bored. At least on the run. At least I constantly had something to do. [00:54:07] Speaker C: That's. That's what so patriotic. Panel and said, kid, get creative and have fun with the zombies. And Dan said, at least zombies give you something to do. [00:54:14] Speaker A: It'd be like Zombieland. He had a blast. [00:54:17] Speaker B: That's kind of my point. It's like the zombies would give me something to do, like. [00:54:21] Speaker A: And constantly on the run doesn't necessarily mean I'm constantly at a sprint. It's just I'm constantly, you know, I'm moving. [00:54:27] Speaker C: But you also don't have time for, like, any survival either. [00:54:30] Speaker D: Yeah, I don't. [00:54:30] Speaker B: You don't live long. [00:54:31] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:54:32] Speaker D: Inevitable. [00:54:32] Speaker C: Eventually you don't live long in that scenario, which maybe that's the win, I guess. I don't know. But you don't live long because you don't have time to collect. Any survival type of scenario. You don't have any time to create a spot for you to shelter. Shelter, or anything. You're always running, you're always moving, always trying to survive. [00:54:49] Speaker A: How much time do you have that being alive alone? [00:54:51] Speaker C: It says constantly run. You're constantly moving. Whereas if you're alone, I'll be alone. You can build yourself a little tiny house. Tiny house. [00:55:00] Speaker B: House on what? Whatever property you want. [00:55:02] Speaker C: On whatever property you want. [00:55:03] Speaker A: And then build robots because you're super intelligent. [00:55:05] Speaker B: So actually the whole world is your property. Yeah. [00:55:08] Speaker A: And then. [00:55:08] Speaker C: That's. [00:55:08] Speaker A: Right, just restart civilization to take on the zombies. [00:55:11] Speaker B: Which leads us to the next question. Last question I have. Would you rather rebuild civilization with only one R. Sorry? With only five random strangers or with one person you despise? So it doesn't really say what your relationship is with us. It's easy because at first there are five random strangers, but eventually you're gonna know Pretty well. [00:55:28] Speaker C: You're rebuilding civilization. [00:55:30] Speaker B: You're gonna get to know him pretty well. [00:55:32] Speaker C: Intimately. [00:55:35] Speaker D: I'll take the five strangers because if it's someone I. There's not many people I really dislike. There's probably only three I don't want to be. No, not you three. I don't want to be stuck with any of them trying to rebuild society because I already despise them. I'll take my chances with the strangers. And also, like you said, if you have to rebuild population genetically, the more people probably the better. [00:56:00] Speaker B: What if ends up being five people that you hate? [00:56:02] Speaker D: I'll take the chance. [00:56:06] Speaker A: I'm just thinking of the two people that you despise. Not to be political, but I'm just thinking, like, Trump and Biden. Like, put him together. Like, good luck, boys. Like, figure this out. Yeah, I'm going to go with the five strangers. At least you have a better chance of survival. You have a better chance of having a majority vote versus 50. 50 split constantly. And then you don't. You also have a chance of maybe they agree with you versus hating you off the rip. And you can only tolerate people so much. And if you have to tolerate somebody you despise to rebuild this entire civilization, there's probably gonna be one less civilization and one less person or two by the end of it. So. [00:56:44] Speaker D: Plus the two people. I despise a guy. So we're not rebuilding anything that way. [00:56:50] Speaker C: More hands. More hands make it easier. Yeah, I'm going five. [00:56:54] Speaker B: Dana and Penguin both say strangers as well. [00:56:56] Speaker C: Yep, more hands make it easier. [00:56:58] Speaker A: That's probably the best ones. Easiest one. [00:57:00] Speaker B: Yeah, those. All right, that's pretty good. [00:57:05] Speaker C: Well done, everybody. [00:57:06] Speaker B: Pretty good. [00:57:09] Speaker C: All right, let's. [00:57:11] Speaker B: We are going to head into our final segment to wrap this baby up. Faith anchors us. Fuel drives us. Let's open God's word and find the wisdom we need to live it out every day. So the reason that we did this today is there's a lot of very serious, heavy things going on, and they all need to be handled and talked about. Like, all my podcasts that I listen to, like, all of them are great conversations just about what's going on, and very serious and good stuff. But I feel like it's also important to take time to step back and just have some fun conversation and laugh. And so the verse I found today is Proverbs 17:22. It says, A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. I think God wants us to have a joyful heart. He wants us to feel, to have joy that we find in him. And that joy doesn't come from our world, it comes through him. And so I think it's just important to stop and have some fun conversations and ask silly questions and what's your guys thoughts on it? [00:58:21] Speaker D: You know, we all have that, that friend who is always happy, content, joyful. Just everyone has at least one acquaintance like that that they're just always positive and fun to be around. And you feel that energy and you feed off that energy when you're with that person. So it's kind of what, what I thought when I read this for the first time, that positivity and joy is contagious and it's good for your soul and it's good to be around that person. Especially if you're, you know, down or struggling or having a bad day or something. [00:58:55] Speaker A: Absolutely. [00:58:56] Speaker D: There's always that person who, no matter. [00:58:57] Speaker B: What, you know, because there are, there are, there's studies that show like there are chemical things that happen just when you smile. Even if you fake a smile, force a smile, it actually fires off things, synapses and stuff in your brain that, that makes you feel better and stuff like laughing creates hormones in your body that make you feel better and stuff like that. There's just like there's. God made us this way so that we. That. So that when we laugh and smile and are happy and joyful and stuff like that, that makes us feel better too. So. [00:59:31] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I agree with you guys 100% on that. Like I've been doing it to myself and challenging friends to not take the negative and let it fester, sit with you. And that's just like it dries up the bone. And I challenge them also and even myself the most. Right. In self reflection is to be positive even when you're growing or doing something or building a business, whatever it may be, you're not where you want to be the finish line. [01:00:03] Speaker B: Right. [01:00:03] Speaker A: But it's about the journey. But it's about also being joyful for where you are from where you've come. And that's sometimes the hard challenge for me for sure. But for others is we get negative because we say things aren't happening right now, they aren't happening in the moment. And we're completely negating the positive aspect of it. And when somebody accomplishes a goal or achieves something to see that moment of joy in their face, the excitement is exactly. What I can relate this to is it's the good medicine. Right. And to. And it's Hard. But to take the positive from everything and to have the joy and to continue to spread that and have that good medicine versus feeding or letting that. That negative energy come into your life and just dry you up. Because we see it when we have a hard time, we see that person both ways. It reflects. Right. And then we, on the opposing side, we absorb that as well, whether it be empathy or compassion or care, but we still feel that emotion. So, yeah, that's. That's kind of where I met and that's. That it's a great one for me this week. You know, it's being positive. Don't. Don't let one little negative thing or one mindset slow you down from being joyful for where you are, where you've come and what you've done to get to where you are at that moment. [01:01:29] Speaker B: Good. [01:01:32] Speaker C: I mean, it's. I've said this a lot for our segment or Faith and Fuel segment is. It's just. It's good advice. It's. It's amazing going into anything, events, outings, any of those kind of things, something that you're looking at, even if you were looking at something as something you didn't want to go to. Work trips, nights out, I don't know, whatever you want to. [01:02:04] Speaker B: Dentist. [01:02:05] Speaker C: Dentist, your kids, a band concert, whatever it is, those kind of things, if you are looking or not looking forward to it, if you are having negative thoughts about those kind of things, trying to change the internal monologue to something positive. I want to go to this. This is something that I can have a good spirit about. Even if you didn't inherently enjoy it because it still wasn't necessarily fun, it will at least help you to tolerate it better. [01:02:38] Speaker D: You're blessed to have that opportunity. [01:02:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:02:40] Speaker C: It's still something that. [01:02:41] Speaker D: Do I love listening to them play music. Maybe, maybe not. But I am blessed to have those kids and be able to go to their band. [01:02:47] Speaker B: I think at the point. I've been trying to have the mindset lately of saying, I don't have to do this. I get to do this. Right. [01:02:54] Speaker A: You know, that's a good. [01:02:55] Speaker B: There's a difference. There's a big difference that just that the have to. And get to. Is a completely different mindset. [01:03:00] Speaker C: Well, and it's. And it's just. [01:03:01] Speaker A: It is. [01:03:01] Speaker C: It's a mindset. And this is. That's all I feel like this is really saying. I mean, it's more than that. [01:03:06] Speaker B: It's more than that. [01:03:06] Speaker C: But, yeah, you. You need to change it or you need to ask for Help to change it. Because if you're only going to go in dejected to everything all the time, you're only going to be sad sack, you know? [01:03:22] Speaker B: So you've got the freedom to make. To make something as good or as bad as you want it to be. So it's something that we've. That we've. [01:03:31] Speaker A: That's a struggle. [01:03:32] Speaker B: I've been teaching my kids that for. For a long time. I was like, you can make. Going. Going to what? Whatever. Going to. Like you can make. You can ruin today if you want to, or you can. You can make today a great day if you want to. This is really up to you how you go into this day. What is your perspective? And that's kind of what you're getting to like. I love if I ever get to. If I ever make it enough of a priority. There's a couple of books I want to write. One of them is on. Is on perspective. I think perspective changes everything. It's that I get to verse. I have to. I love that just that perspective is huge. I think a lot of us are sitting in the midst of blessing that we prayed for and wanted so much before. We're now in. At least I know I'm living in a lot of those blessings that I wanted before. But those blessings also come with downsides too. But the sinful side of me focuses on those. [01:04:27] Speaker C: The bad. [01:04:28] Speaker B: On the bad side of it. Instead of just enjoying that I'm actually living within the blessings that I wanted so badly. Yeah. Penguin Sharon First Peter 3:13. Let's look that up. [01:04:40] Speaker A: Yeah. You should write that book. I think that would be a really good book. I think the perspective is huge. [01:04:45] Speaker B: I could talk for hours just on that. I think it's a great perspective. Says, now who is there? This is first Peter 3:13. Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good? Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good? So I think just. It goes on to say, but even if you should suffer for righteousness sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled. But in your hearts honor Christ. The Lord is holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and respect, having a good conscience so that when you are slandered, those who revile you are good. Those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame, but it is better to suffer for doing Good. If that should be God's will than for doing evil. I actually have that highlighted in my Bible. Yeah, it's good stuff. Thanks, Pangolin. Yeah. So there was purpose behind us doing this today of just doing. Would your other questions. Even Dan said that, that, you know, that he enjoys that a lot. And so there's purpose behind it. It's not just being silly just to be silly, but it's. It's fun. And fun means it's enjoyable, and enjoyable means we get to laugh, and laughing is important to do. [01:06:15] Speaker A: So I think it's a great episode, especially with you coming into town. You know, we don't get to see you every day. They have to put up with me 247 and listen to me rant. [01:06:24] Speaker D: Um, it's fun to be here, but. [01:06:26] Speaker A: Sitting here in this episode today, in lieu of everything that's going on politically and divisiveness and just the evil in the world, this was very much needed. Nate, you're about to go on your camping trip with your family. We're going to miss you at ord, but I'm super excited that this is your time of the year. Like, I know. Don't text him. Don't bother him. If you do, he'll get back. [01:06:45] Speaker D: I said I was going to miss him. [01:06:47] Speaker A: He misses the dog. [01:06:48] Speaker B: Right? [01:06:48] Speaker A: So he's got one set of clothes, same set of jeans for every day of the week. Right. But this was a great episode. Get to interact with all the subscribers and everybody and just to get to laugh with you guys. It's always nice to not go in with so much pressure sometimes with what we have to talk about in the seriousness of the world and in lieu of current situations. [01:07:10] Speaker C: Yep, very good.
