The Time Machine: Nostalgia, Social Media, and Modern Distractions
The conversation flows effortlessly as David returns to the podcast after his bout with illness, immediately diving into playful banter about showing up late and moving furniture. What starts as lighthearted ribbing quickly transforms into a cultural exploration of our most formative experiences and embarrassing moments.
Sports takes center stage as the guys debate hockey strategies, basketball playoffs, and personal athletic failures. David's painfully honest story about costing his team a state championship becomes a springboard for discussing life's most humiliating moments – is getting your ankles broken on the basketball court worse than making that critical error in baseball? The vulnerable admissions create a surprisingly profound meditation on regret, responsibility, and how we carry these moments with us.
Movie and music preferences reveal generational divides and surprising common ground, with passionate defenses of favorite actors and bands that speak to deeper questions about what we value in entertainment. The spirited disagreement about whether Die Hard qualifies as a Christmas movie showcases their comfortable dynamic – they can vehemently disagree while maintaining the warmth of long-standing friendship.
The most compelling segment emerges organically when they confront our collective social media addiction. "I just don't ever want, at the end of my life, to look at how many days I've wasted scrolling on my phone," one host reflects, sparking an unexpectedly thoughtful examination of how technology is reshaping human connection. From doom-scrolling to the erosion of work-life boundaries, they articulate the unease many of us feel about our relationship with screens.
Between debates about golf course pricing and late-night gaming sessions, this episode captures the essence of authentic male friendship – equal parts ridiculous humor and unexpected wisdom. You'll find yourself nodding along, recognizing your own experiences in their stories, and perhaps questioning some of your own digital habits along the way.
welcome back to the non-muse podcast. Finally, we have david back with us, it feels like it's been a long time.
Speaker 3:It has been he's not.
Speaker 1:Well, look what the cat dragged in. We got it all ready for you. I mean, it must be nice to be the diva.
Speaker 3:You just show up when you want. We've got Will just walked up here. I don't know if I'd say walked the man just sprinted, he did. He come flying by, jumped out of his truck. I mean, I got hit by gravel, I mean it was a rough day, hey guys, hey.
Speaker 2:How's it?
Speaker 1:going. Hey, nice of you to join us.
Speaker 2:Don't worry about times or anything. Well, when you're this popular, you've got things to do.
Speaker 1:Listen. Didn't we talk about that over lunch today? Yeah, there's not much popularity, hey.
Speaker 3:I even made a phone call and said what time, and I got a time. We were sitting together.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we're an hour and ten minutes late. He was like hey what?
Speaker 1:time, do you think? And first he ignored me and I'm like, hey, you what time do you think? And he's like yeah, I should be back by 9. So that's when I was like, oh, 9.15.
Speaker 2:I mean, we also understand the sport. I was watching you just never know. Did they win? By the way, yeah, they did bad. Keeps rolling.
Speaker 1:Keeps rolling.
Speaker 2:Keeps rolling, keep rolling, three-peat coming.
Speaker 1:Well, I was rudely interrupted as he came running up. We're trying to have a show here. He just doesn't care.
Speaker 2:The show doesn't start until I'm here, oh boy. I don't know if I can handle two Davids.
Speaker 3:Is this woman emailing again?
Speaker 1:No, listen, I told you I'm ignoring those emails.
Speaker 2:It's on you to get it.
Speaker 1:I think I saw one, I just didn't read it because it was in all caps.
Speaker 3:I didn't have time for that. It is funny because he does sound like me from about 10 episodes ago. Right, it's the exact same thing.
Speaker 1:I'm like I can't handle two of you. Good thing I can mute you both whenever I need to it's kind of nice, as I was saying, nice to have David back after his sickness, illness, death, whatever it was that he was dealing with, I still got this cough.
Speaker 3:I'm going to try not to cough too much tonight.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but I feel like you cough all the time. I do, it's an allergy thing Like 365 days a year, pretty much.
Speaker 3:I feel like it, yes.
Speaker 2:At this point it feels like it like hey, we're gonna have to buy cough boxes because it's it's bad I get winter allergies and spring allergies and summer allergies and fall allergies.
Speaker 1:Apparently we just can't figure it out, but, yes, good to have david back. Um, so we've got the three, the three of us, back. I always say amigos or musketeers, but we're a bunch of rejects.
Speaker 2:So I don't know that I can really call us any of that stuff.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, we got a little distracted too. So we've got basketball, hockey. You know a little bit of everything.
Speaker 3:Well, this isn't much of a hockey match. It's more like a boxing match. All they're going to do is fight.
Speaker 1:They're what like 10 minutes in and they've tried to fly it like 100 times already, nice, and it's still 0-0. Yeah, that's hockey, the good old hockey that it is David's kind of partially interested because it's not Dallas playing, so he's kind of like eh, it's whatever.
Speaker 3:Last year I started following Dallas Stars. For some reason, they won last night.
Speaker 1:He's content, he's happy, his team won.
Speaker 3:He's good I think they're up 3-1 in their series.
Speaker 1:Really playing 2-1.
Speaker 2:God, you had to ask me that didn't you Fan man, I know the true fan Kentucky fans.
Speaker 1:He's deep in it. No, because they just beat the.
Speaker 3:Avalanche and they did that series.
Speaker 1:Well, did you notice, though, when Will came up?
Speaker 3:Oh I noticed the shirt.
Speaker 1:Okay, I was just made sure you know. I noticed the shirt. Yeah, it's got a duke shirt on. Oh, the jets, that's who they're playing, jets. Uh, winnipeg, yeah, okay, see, I know a few things. I know teams. I know nothing else about hockey other than there's a goal there and a goal there and you try to go put it in there yeah which I was saying before we got started. When it comes to hockey, why do you not find the fattest, widest goalie you can right?
Speaker 1:it's already a tiny net and they fill it as it is because how bulky it all is. But like I don't want there to be daylight, yeah, just cover it all like sumo wrestler, put them on skates and say, here you go, like you're not, you're not getting by, you don't have to skate, just stand there. No, just stand there. Yeah, I don't need you to move.
Speaker 3:Yeah, just be big. It's crazy what these guys do on skates, though, and in how they can place the puck, like they get a little corner above a goalie's shoulder or something they can yeah flip it in there while they're skating, why guys are hitting them with sticks and everything else. I mean we've talked about this. Tyler can't skate as it is Roller skates.
Speaker 1:It's not that bad.
Speaker 3:Oh, it was kind of rough.
Speaker 1:I wasn't the worst one there.
Speaker 3:Well, you wasn't. That's not saying a lot.
Speaker 1:Exactly. No, I'm not saying it's saying much, but I wasn't the worst one there, so that's all that really mattered to me. I think your wife became the worst one there.
Speaker 3:Listen, she was skating great. She just didn't know how to stop. No at all, that was the problem.
Speaker 1:At all Stopping was let's see what I hit. And when you hit a wall, that's about, you know, three feet tall. She flipped over, she went directly over it. Oh wow, this has been several years ago.
Speaker 3:Now I do want to ask, because we've talked about how much younger you are than us Do you ever skate much, Can you skate?
Speaker 2:I can skate yeah.
Speaker 3:Okay. Do you ever go to the roller rink when?
Speaker 2:you're a kid. I skate.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I can ice skate. I've never tried to ice skate, I just know it's not a smart idea for me. Yeah, well, I mean, let's just be realistic here. I could rollerblade when like this big around.
Speaker 3:I know I mean we established that today Wait a minute, nobody could see that. Is that like really big, really low? No, he's a twig, oh, okay.
Speaker 1:Listen, we had to move some furniture today. I basically moved it alone. That is not true? Well, hang on. What was the comment you made walking into your house?
Speaker 2:I literally could not do that. I'm so weak. I am so weak. This is so heavy. I'm just a weak this like that dresser.
Speaker 1:I mean, don't get me wrong, it had a little bit of weight to it, it was heavy, one of the lightest dressers I've moved. It was heavy. So, david, do you remember the armor? Which one Mine that we moved up the stairs, the big like light tan one? I'm sure it's been a while. That we busted up with a hammer because we said we're never moving again.
Speaker 3:I think I do remember that yes. At least they didn't fall out of a truck. That's another story. Let's not get me on that.
Speaker 1:I still think I have a ping pong table. Shrapnel all over that road.
Speaker 2:I used to have one it was a nice ping pong table. We got it for Christmas.
Speaker 1:It lasted like six months Listen.
Speaker 3:It Listen, it just exploded.
Speaker 1:Did we get that for you for Christmas. Yeah, yeah, so I bought it. I can break it. I don't think that's how it works, right? Yeah, it's not yours to break, it doesn't matter. I don't think that's how that works at all.
Speaker 3:Listen, we both put it back in the truck.
Speaker 1:I knew we turned it the wrong way in the truck already and we're like let's just get this be done, like we're exhausted, let's be done with this. And when we put it up there both of us knew like that's not smart. It was like to the very back of the truck broadside. Yeah, that wasn't smart with about like today yeah, no, nothing, holding no straps, nothing and it was like, yeah, yeah, it'll be fine. Yeah, at that point I don't really know that we cared, because it was just like we're over it, yeah.
Speaker 1:And driving down the road, david's like, oh, we lost something. I didn't know what really that really meant at the time. So I look in the mirror and it's just particle board everywhere. I'm like, oh, that's a ping pong table still there as many pieces as that was.
Speaker 1:I mean it didn't get washed away until the hurricane. I mean it was, that's true, Everybody took care of it. Gosh, I mean it was when I say everywhere, like we picked up as much as we could. We didn't get close to the amount of stuff, pieces were you couldn't see the paint on the road.
Speaker 3:I mean it was. It was literally everywhere. I have talked about getting you one several times. You tell me you don't have room for it now.
Speaker 1:I don't I mean between two kids and all the crap that my wife keeps like there is nothing that I could do with a ping pong table like out here so it's not my fault. I could be great like you put one right here like move a couple things, put another one, it'd be great.
Speaker 2:Like you could put one right here Like move a couple things.
Speaker 1:put it out Like that'd be cool Pink phone tournament. I don't know where you're going to store it, but that'd be a thing you could get one of those like really big outdoor ones. Yeah, like concrete tables and things.
Speaker 3:Yeah yeah, that'd be cool Now I don't here earlier and I saw y'all, you know, saw y'all for a minute when he was leaving, and Tyler told me how he was doing. I was like, whew, I got something to do. I'm glad I don't have to do that one.
Speaker 2:It really wasn't that bad.
Speaker 1:No, so the couch was one of the easiest couches I've ever moved to. Yeah, it was really light. I'm not like it's a very odd design, it's just a futon it is, but it's like it's got a hinge in the middle. It's got the two backs like they don't really sit up. There's no like latch, you just push them and they fall. Yeah, I'm like I don't know how you would sit against that thing if it wasn't against the wall.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's a very odd.
Speaker 3:Why do you got to put it?
Speaker 1:against the wall and it's white leather, I mean it's a, so it's in your apartment now.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:It's in what he so affectionately called the junk room. The junk room, okay.
Speaker 3:He's like I gotta figure out where to put stuff. You have a white leather futon couch in your junk room.
Speaker 2:It's like the nicest thing I own. Yeah, no, hang on.
Speaker 1:The TV and the PlayStation. That's true, you can tell okay. So I walk in his place and I'm like I already, I'm already knowing like it's gonna be a bachelor pad like it's just what it's gonna be like it's not every one of us. No, no, I'm not honestly. It's really not like you actually have some things on the wall like thank you, you've got book like you've got things that make it. You know, try to feel a little more home.
Speaker 3:It's not like a lawn chair and a team. No, no, no, like it's a.
Speaker 1:It's a couch that's got a big chase on one end, like I mean, it's it's really not a bad setup place, it's just like going in. I still knew it's gonna be very bachelor. Like, yeah, there's not much color, there's not much, just very, very simple yeah, so go in. It's like the man owns like three plates I mean there's like nothing which again I mean when you're single. You finish it, wash it and you're like hey my dishes are done Exactly.
Speaker 1:There's nothing you need. So you walk through the kitchen because we came in the back door, went through the kitchen and as soon as you get to the living room you're like all right, here's the important room, like there's two things. I noticed the there's two things. I noticed the blackout curtains in his bedroom Make sure he can sleep and the fact that the living room PlayStation TV is set up perfect. With the exception, and we've got to work on this for him. The man's got to mount his TV on the wall.
Speaker 1:It's not mounted Like on a.
Speaker 3:TV stand. Yeah, it's on a little TV stand.
Speaker 1:But I'm like it would just look so much cleaner.
Speaker 2:What size TV are you talking about?
Speaker 1:It, but I'm like it would just look so much cleaner. Now wait, what size TV are you talking about? It's pretty big, it's. What do you have?
Speaker 3:50? In my living room.
Speaker 1:Yeah, 60. 65, I think it's not that big, it's smaller than that. I think his is probably like upper 50s. I mean yeah, so I mean it's definitely. Yeah, I think TV's that big probably, probably need to be on the wall.
Speaker 3:Yeah, probably it definitely does. You know, if you got a 40, you know under you could well see.
Speaker 1:Here's the thing.
Speaker 3:It's one of the flat it's a flat screen, but it's. It's not old, it is older, so it's much thicker.
Speaker 1:I still like, yeah, no, yeah, you guys definitely do, but I'm like it, it would be much better because it would really free up space. Yeah, definitely the old, the old style that your apartment is. You don't have a ton of room and it's very segmented.
Speaker 1:It's not an open floor plan. You walk in, you're staring at walls. It's very old design, because we were talking about it today. I'm like man, if they just took out this one section, this place would be really cool. You'd just have a very open, like free moving area. Yeah, but, and what I told him? He's like ah, my place sucks, my place sucks. I'm like the places I have seen that are infinitely worse. Right, like you are actually doing. Fine, I've seen way, way worse things. So is yours a two bedroom apartment? Yeah, that's what it is. Okay. Yeah, yeah, two-bed, one-bath.
Speaker 3:That second bedroom tiny, that's what we both. It's rough, you know. We both lived not far from you like when I first moved to North Carolina.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, I forgot. So the ones I was telling you about, they lived there when they first moved here. Yeah, we lived there for like nine months On the other and I was like that's 2013, 14 in that range, but we paid that in uh like 15, 15, yeah, 15 into 16, yeah 10 years 10 years and it's like more than doubled.
Speaker 1:Yeah, more than double, yeah well, because she had, she had sent us a thing. Our landlord at the time she said uh, she sent a letter to everybody. Hey, I'm gonna, I gotta up the rent. So we were like terrified. 25 bucks yeah like it was like 675 by the time we moved out. I'm like I think back now and I'm like man, like I would do anything didn't realize how good we had that.
Speaker 1:Oh, no like we thought, we thought that was high yeah and then you know, talking with will about his rent and just with all the stuff that I see. I mean there are people literally renting houses locally 2500, oh, i500. Oh I know, a month.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but my mortgage is just under $1,000 a month. Mine is right at $1,000. So the rent for an apartment is more expensive than the mortgage on my three-bedroom house. Right.
Speaker 2:I have three beds too bad, that's crazy.
Speaker 3:And I didn't have no huge down payment. I had a normal down payment. But if you don't have the down payment. I did mine with almost nothing. We did ours with almost nothing.
Speaker 1:It was a very small amount. We have a three-bed, two-bath. It's not huge, but it's a decent size.
Speaker 2:It feels like you have no space, when you have kids and all the toys and you know all that stuff.
Speaker 1:You never have enough room. You have anything, yeah. But which is so weird I was thinking about that because you made the comment earlier about some houses close by that. These people hop on a plane and they go work, you know, in dc. They work in new york, they're like home a couple days a week. They have these like three, four thousand foot houses they're never there for. But then I'm sitting there thinking I'm like what other space do I really need? Because, like, what do you use in your house? Realistically, what do you?
Speaker 3:actually use, so it's like my house. I could use a bigger house and we've been talking about it a while, but the housing market is so crazy. I can get good money out of my house, but the housing market is so crazy. I can get good money out of my house. It's still not enough to go buy what I need because the housing market is so crazy. So I could, like my house is more like more closet space, little bigger rooms, not like I need a bunch of other rooms.
Speaker 1:But that's my thing, like when I look at my house master bedroom, good size, good size master bath Like I'm good there. So in my house what I personally use is the kitchen, the living room and the bedroom. Yeah, because the bathroom is with the bedroom, so like I kind of just include that. So I'm like do I need a bigger living room? Do I like? Oh, that's pretty good.
Speaker 3:I mean, it depends, are you trying to be some of these people that entertain?
Speaker 1:you have other people over all the time and you got other kids at your house there are not enough people that I like to invite them over to my house, so I'm not really worried about you know I've got three kids, so a four bedroom would be nice as they get older, so they all have their own room, like the two little boys are really close in age. Yeah, they're young enough now.
Speaker 3:That's not really a big deal um, you know, as my kids get older, I'd love if, if their friends are at our house hanging out. I know they're safe, I know they're good, so it'd be cool to have some space for that I don't need.
Speaker 1:The hard part about that is it's like when you have this, I agree, it's kind of like well, it kind of negates some of the space I need, because this is always a safe space.
Speaker 3:Speaking of this, you're talking about 4U Golf, who's also the sponsor of this podcast. Yeah, go ahead, take it away.
Speaker 1:No, you got this, you just forgot it. No, I didn't forget it, I was just really distracted by Will showing up late. Is that what it was? Yeah, I mean, I was literally like I'm. And then when you show up whenever you want, you just collect a paycheck.
Speaker 3:I'd say he looks like he's pretty tired.
Speaker 2:I'm objectively tired.
Speaker 1:yes, I think he lives in a perpetual state of tiredness. I don't think this is any more than just the normal amount of tiredness.
Speaker 3:Well, I mean, it was still a little early for him to be this tired.
Speaker 2:I can tell Been a very busy man recently been moving furniture.
Speaker 1:I got it I don't know if I call you busy like today, but this week, yes, yeah, yeah, you kind of went on the hectic war path of holy crap, I have something due that you know existed exactly well, he was telling me about that today and he's like I was over my parents house getting my mom to me about that today, and he's like I was over at my parents' house getting my mom to help me with it.
Speaker 1:Because he was like there was some stuff on there that I was like I just needed some organizational stuff and he's like she can handle that and it was one of those that, like I text him a few times and it was like he just disappeared Because he's like I'm so, like I gotta get this done. And then it was like today you could tell the difference, like he's done today because it was like just freedom. Yeah, he was like. I feel like I'm completely out from underneath this just weight yeah, was this a job thing?
Speaker 3:yes, okay, yeah, that, yeah, I didn't realize was due until.
Speaker 2:Didn't know existed, didn't know it was even a thing until 48 hours before it was due.
Speaker 3:So I do my best work under pressure and so so your bosses are going to listen to this podcast and be like, oh really, you didn't know this. They'll be like, wow that was awesome.
Speaker 2:Just think about it. If you did it in two weeks, just think about it.
Speaker 1:You've actually been prepared. I know I was thinking about actually being prepared.
Speaker 3:how good this could have been. Now they know your mom helped you, that's true, don't talk about Will's mom.
Speaker 2:You'll be in the doghouse.
Speaker 1:I'm sure they do. They hear yelling from the stands.
Speaker 3:By the way, I didn't get to listen to all of last week's podcast. I listened to most of it. Y'all got out there on some stuff.
Speaker 1:Y'all were feeling good. Here's the thing you say out there. It may be out there to you. I feel like we could have gone deeper. We scratched the surface. Oh yeah, I mean on some things, there's a lot of things that had surface scratching and it's like if we really want to get into this, stand by, we'll be here, I mean I probably agreed with you on a lot of it.
Speaker 3:It's funny because listening to it, as I'm listening, I'm going. My mind goes to a certain place. I'm like, oh, if I was sitting there, here's what I would say, Right, and it would be completely different than what y'all say.
Speaker 1:You know, yeah well, and that's the thing, though, too. Like once we've, I mean, you start thinking now, every time you hear something, what's my response, what's what's my thought on that? Because you kind of have to, or else we're just kind of sitting here staring at each other, not going anywhere. So, yeah, when you listen to it back now, you're like what, what would I have said then?
Speaker 3:where was my? I forgot that I texted will and told him he was fired because yeah, oh, I did.
Speaker 1:I do remember that. So you started that text. All I got was why from Will.
Speaker 3:You didn't get the first part when I said he's fired.
Speaker 1:No, it sent it like a separate group one and it didn't show me and I was like what is he?
Speaker 3:why-ing Like? I'm so confused.
Speaker 1:And I almost text why what? And I was like, well, let me just go search it. And then I saw the one that said Will's fired, and I immediately knew what it was about.
Speaker 3:Like I didn't even have to search. But he did say it brings a different perspective. So I was like, okay, I guess.
Speaker 2:I mean.
Speaker 3:I'll give him another shot, yeah.
Speaker 2:I feel like it's fine that I don't like football.
Speaker 1:I mean, it's fine to not be American.
Speaker 2:I like the competition and I like watching big games.
Speaker 1:Because I like watching big games, because I like, just so you don't like watching any.
Speaker 2:Tennessee game that you're technically a fan of. I mean I, I'm not like this profound UTK fan. You know, like I, family has always liked Tennessee. So, yes, I will pull for Tennessee in whatever game they're in. So, yes, I will pull for Tennessee in whatever game they're in, no doubt, and I'll keep up with some of the guys they're recruiting. But even still, if I miss a Saturday game, I don't care.
Speaker 3:See, here's the problem Now.
Speaker 2:I will say Neyland Stadium. I've been there three times with family. It is an amazing place to watch a football game. I've had some buddies that are.
Speaker 3:Outside of the fans. They say the fans are horrible.
Speaker 1:Pretty cool if you're wearing orange. I would say yeah, if you're a UT fan, it's fine. Now I have heard, though, about Neyland from guys that are not UT fans Loud. That they're like that's a great stadium.
Speaker 2:No, it's awesome, it's just a great atmosphere. Like it's just a great atmosphere. Yeah, it's a lot of people. So when I was, I must have been in high school early in high school, like last year yeah. We went and watched them play Oklahoma when Baker Mayfield was there.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:It was a triple overtime game. That would have been electric they broke the decibel record for loudest college football stadium ever and it was unbelievable how loud it was. You could feel the entire place just rocking. It was cool.
Speaker 3:You know, I guess, since you're a Tennessee fan, in that aspect I'm okay that you don't like football as much, because a Tennessee fan who is a Tennessee football like big-time fan, they're just annoying. Yeah, the true Tennessee fan. That helps me a little bit.
Speaker 1:Well, because what would have happened if he was really a true Tennessee fan? He'd have got on here and say next year's our year, boys.
Speaker 2:They've been saying that since Peyton left.
Speaker 1:They've been saying that since the 80s.
Speaker 3:So you don't like Tennessee basketball, though? No, not really. Wait a minute, duke basketball, tennessee football, it's rough.
Speaker 1:That's direct. Competition for you.
Speaker 3:Kentucky and I feel like I just I did just say, though, I'm not no, you did, but like you still, but you wear the orange that's the problem.
Speaker 1:That's the pick that you're gonna make, though yeah, blood's thicker than water.
Speaker 2:You know, I'm saying I get it.
Speaker 3:I'll get it. I guess I don't love it, but I get it families from east tennessee. Originally we're all from east tennessee, it makes sense.
Speaker 2:cousins or sisters yeah, I don't love it, but I get it. Families from East Tennessee originally. We're all from East Tennessee, that makes sense. Cousins or sisters, yeah.
Speaker 3:I don't like it, but I get it. I don't like it, but I get it. No.
Speaker 1:I do understand where that comes from that makes sense. Honestly, it's kind of like all these people locally. They're like we're Clemson fans.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, no. All the local people here. They love the Nados, oh gosh.
Speaker 1:There are no true Nado fans. Get out of here. You are not a Nado fan. This guy right here from our college football.
Speaker 2:I'm there every Saturday. Are you Just because you have nothing to do?
Speaker 1:He doesn't actually go to those games.
Speaker 3:I went to one softball game not long ago.
Speaker 1:You probably go to plenty of baseball games.
Speaker 3:They definitely need to fix their facilities though.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah they're.
Speaker 1:Anyways, it's D3, though I mean it is what it is, but it's kind of like all the Clemson fans here.
Speaker 2:They're miserable to be around. They are miserable, but that's the local team.
Speaker 1:Like that is the closest big school to us and it's like what 40 minutes. I can't stand them. Clemson fans are rough.
Speaker 2:Clemson makes me want to vomit. Clemson fans are very rough they're rough, especially when they were good. There was that three four-year stretch.
Speaker 1:There was that four-year stretch. It was like, oh, we're all miserable, just stop being remotely good because it's killing us. Well, but then the fact that they even remotely had a chance this past year.
Speaker 3:I know you started to see the fans again. They're starting to come back out.
Speaker 1:You haven't been posting or saying anything about them. And now they make the playoff.
Speaker 2:It's like, oh, they're going to win. Their baseball team is really good.
Speaker 3:How do you feel about Dabo?
Speaker 2:then I don't really have much of an opinion on Dabo. I think that he cultivated, winning at its highest level.
Speaker 3:He seems to be a good coach and he seems to do a lot of good stuff, but, man, he's annoying to me. That's my problem. I get it.
Speaker 1:But I think it's just the same thing as the fans. There's just something about that. That is a very annoying fan base.
Speaker 3:Is he one of those? If he's your coach, I love him. If he's not, you hate him, Like no matter where he's at.
Speaker 2:I don't know, I've heard some Clemson fans are like golly, just over Dabo, there's a few. It's like the wine and cheese crowd. It's just the same thing with Carolina fans the wine and cheese crowd.
Speaker 1:That's a good thing, I like that Well, but the thing about a he didn't win another national championship the following year and they're like oh Dabo's, falling off. Yeah, but it's like they just dropped it immediately. He put Clemson on the map. Well, so in their mind they were already on the map, Even though they hadn't been relative since the 80s. It's just people, don't?
Speaker 2:understand how hard it is to win games.
Speaker 1:It's a lot. We had this discussion it is so hard to win.
Speaker 2:At any level, at any level. People take it for granted Winning is a difficult thing to do. People take it for granted you legitimately have to learn how to win.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of people that are very talented that cannot win because they just don't know how.
Speaker 3:I've thought of this before. Especially, you listen to music or you hear like the Zex musicians and all these people and they're like oh yeah, you know, I played high school football and we won the state championship. It's like everybody won the state championship. I'm like how is that possible? Because everybody says they won the state championship in whatever sport they played in high school. All these like famous people.
Speaker 1:I guess you'd say there's a lot of people that were water boys that may have got that ring. Is that what it is? Okay, they weren't just okay. So my whole thing is it's cool that you were a part of that team, but being on a team doesn't mean anything for you.
Speaker 3:I don't think it's true. Anyways, I think people say whatever.
Speaker 1:Well, no, but there's so many of those people that it's.
Speaker 2:I saw the same dudes that said they shot 65 the other day.
Speaker 1:It's like the same dudes that said they shot 65 the other day, right, oh my gosh, the amount of people out here I was at and it would be like a nice course. I'm like, oh, that's a tough course. They're like, yeah, I shot 73. And I'm like I just watched you shank 16 balls in a row, Like what do?
Speaker 3:you mean, you shot 73?.
Speaker 1:Like on the front. Nine maybe, but youby was saying you know number one's guaranteed par. Yeah, like they have. They have what they call shark attack rules. These are all long drive guys. So like one of the guys, he's 40 squatches 47.
Speaker 1:I'm not sure something like that he's, he's up and he told us he's like, he's like a 90s golfer, like he's. He doesn't claim to be good, but he can hit it a freaking mile. So for them they're like hole one. You just got out of the car, we don't warm up. Yeah, it's guaranteed par. We try to impart. If somebody lets us play through, it's's a play through par. He goes through this whole thing and I'm like that's the craziest thing ever.
Speaker 3:70s and a half you can only do. What is it? Triple bogeys the max.
Speaker 2:Triple bogey max. I don't mind that, though For pace of play I get it. I don't mind that.
Speaker 1:I really do get it.
Speaker 3:But don't come to me and say I shot 70 something, but you were still in the tee box with a triple yeah on that hole, like it doesn't mean anything to me.
Speaker 2:Um go hit the water four times and right, yeah, right, I did cost us a state championship and really baseball high school yeah, I was a sole reason. I was the uh awesome to this day.
Speaker 3:You can see it. Yeah, I know I'm starting to feel sad for right now. Yeah, I was the awesome to this day. You can see it. I know I'm starting to feel sad right now.
Speaker 2:I was. We were playing Cuthbert in powerhouse Charlotte. We were up four to three, bottom of the six at their place and two outs runners on second third.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:And I was shortstop and routine ground ball hit to me right between my legs. Rolls left field. Both run score. We lose 5-4. Oh boy, oh my goodness, we go 3-3 down in the top Ball game.
Speaker 1:That's tough. It was my, I mean, it was not a chance to score again.
Speaker 3:It was the third error I made all year.
Speaker 2:I made three all year. So that's the thing. Sounds like you think about it a lot.
Speaker 1:When you get to a player that it's not like. Well, he's a really good bat, so we put up with the errors. No, it was like out of character and at the high school level. Three errors by a player in a year super low yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean that's a super low number. It was a good fielding year man, it's the wrong timing to have it.
Speaker 1:I played in one state championship and we got absolutely rocked at every spot because it was in tennis and we played Cardinal Gibbons, yeah.
Speaker 2:So private school.
Speaker 1:I was playing number four at the time it was my sophomore year. There's six guys that play that actually count. I was playing as our fourth position. The guy I was playing had a full ride to Carolina. I'm like where's your number one?
Speaker 2:going. Who are?
Speaker 1:you guys. I think I did the best and lost 6-3-6-0. Like I mean it was, it was a quick state championship. It was one of the faster ones they've had. It was, you know, we drove a long ways, saved the night and got rocked yeah so that's really I. You know, I don't sit here and have that dwelling. I'm like, oh, I lost it for a team because my brother.
Speaker 2:My brother got to win one that's cool two years ago at west, and my dad was on staff for it too right, and so I got to go along with them through that journey and it is, it's really special it's a really hard thing to do, you know, so it's it is really cool.
Speaker 1:Don't be wrong. It's really cool you win some type of championship. It is, it's really cool. The issue is there are so many people our age and older. That's all they've got 100 100 all they've got and they hang on to it forever and for and I'm not saying that for everybody like now I think it's cool, like for your dad, all the stuff he's done, but then also to get it as a coach, like yeah that's a cool thing.
Speaker 1:It's on such a different level. So, like when you start doing it like that, it's like okay, now it's in a different way, like you are now playing a whole different role, like it's very different. But there are so many of the guys, like you said, it's like you know they're 50 something and they're they're talking about. You know, back when I was in high school, I was the man and I'm like and now you work at the gas station like cool, like yeah like do something else, keep moving like you just lived in that one spot.
Speaker 3:Does your brother throw shade at you or anything? Yeah, it's.
Speaker 2:Oh I would. I'm the only one that played baseball in the house that doesn't have one, Really.
Speaker 3:That's rough.
Speaker 2:Because dad has two, right Little brother has one, my middle brother didn't play and I'm the only one that doesn't have one, and so it is all the time plus the thing is, you had the chance for one yeah like it's a little different when it's like if you were on team that we won two games right, which historically West Baseball. That's not how they do in the hunt, yeah it was yeah but it is what it is.
Speaker 3:It is what it is how it goes. Some things are meant to be.
Speaker 1:You would never know that he is bothered by it.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Just really let that go easily. You never know it. I was the best player in the house, so it's fine here we go, which I can't say anything, because then your mom's going to send another email. I don't know that I can handle more.
Speaker 3:I coached youth football when I was younger and cost a team a playoff game. That had not been the playoff in years and it still, to this day, bothers me. And I was just a coach of a youth team so I couldn't imagine feeling like you was the reason there's so many things in a baseball game especially, so I think it's hard to say one play, done it.
Speaker 2:I get your point, but there's probably so many other things. Yeah, I think we left for a tournament.
Speaker 3:Yeah so I get why you would feel like that's it, but you never know what plays. The one play that makes the difference.
Speaker 1:But that's the thing that's polarizing about every sport is we always will pinpoint well, this play. Well in reality, in any other sport basketball, football, whatever if you played better defense earlier, if you didn't give this up earlier, we're putting it on this very end, but if you don't put yourself in that spot, it doesn't matter. Like you said with baseball, you know.
Speaker 3:There was probably a run left. You leave eight or more in scoring position.
Speaker 1:It's like we did this to ourselves, like there's so much more to it, but then, of course, at that point it's like no it was on me, but it's what?
Speaker 3:is it Murphy's Law? If something can go wrong, it will go wrong, right? So you kind of, even in sports, I feel like you've got to go every play as hard as you can go because something is going to go wrong. In that case it happened to be on you. You've got to be far enough ahead that you can handle when something goes wrong.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but it's almost one. You'd rather just eat you up like, take a bad hop, like just absolutely yeah hit you in the face like yeah, stupid, but like through the legs as well, as it's like that sucks that sucks, that sucks, yeah it sucks. But now question and you know exactly who I'm thinking of with this, because we were at west when it happened is that worse than getting dropped by a crossover and it being on every highlight reel on Snapchat, on TikTok, on Facebook, for a certain kid?
Speaker 1:that we know, was yours worse or was his worse? Because the thing is, social media wasn't what it was then no. So your mishap is like it was between the team Right. Like some families, I feel like it would be way worse nowadays.
Speaker 2:Getting ankles broken in basketball is one of the most humiliating things that can happen. Ankles broke or dunked on. What's worse, ankles broken. I agree with that 100%. And when I played I never got my ankles broken because I purposely didn't play defense you had that lebron mentality I can't get beat if I don't play defense.
Speaker 1:Yeah, um.
Speaker 2:So I think getting your ankles broken is probably worse, just because it's like it's an athleticism thing at that point so when, when you go across sports, is that one of the most embarrassing things?
Speaker 1:For sure, because in football you get Somebody just absolutely trucks you.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:That to me happens a whole lot more. That happens multiple times a game.
Speaker 2:I think getting your ankles broken, I think you get fooled on a breaking ball for strike three and you, like you have swing and it's like getting folded.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's like. Yeah, it's pretty. That's a rough one too.
Speaker 2:I agree with that um what else is embarrassing in sport.
Speaker 1:So I think that is embarrassing, but I think because how difficult a baseball is to hit, that's where I'm kind of like, yeah it, I almost am able to kind of move past it a little bit. Hardest sport in the world, but no basketball like getting crossed, like, like you said, football doesn't have a lot of those. I don't think that's embarrassing out on the maybe getting jude getting hurtled.
Speaker 3:Getting hurtled is pretty rough I can remember, you know, playing football and getting just rocked by guys.
Speaker 1:Right, but that's football.
Speaker 3:Here's what I hate when a guy lays down, I would just jump up immediately, run to the sideline and then be like, oh, God, but I'm not going to let you see it.
Speaker 1:You hide behind your lineman and you're like oh gosh, that hurt.
Speaker 3:I'm not going to let you see that you hurt me.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think really getting juked out very similar. You're getting getting juked out very similar. You get your ankles broke at that point, or?
Speaker 3:just absolutely getting mossed in football, though that's, that's pretty. Yeah, it's like a defensive back.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you just absolutely get destroyed like that. One's pretty rough, I think. But yeah, as far as like getting hit I, I don't even think of those the same.
Speaker 2:No, because it's such a I mean, it's what, it's what's supposed to happen exactly. It's part's part of it. I'm trying to think what other sport you know you shank one golf course. The worst, I think the worst.
Speaker 1:I think he's got something. It's hidden.
Speaker 2:A group lets you play through.
Speaker 1:And you shank it in front of them.
Speaker 2:You're on a tee box, you just like top one, but doesn't everybody do that? I don't know. I mean I all the guys I let play through they stripe it down the middle per shark attack rules.
Speaker 3:That's a playthrough par exactly you're good yeah, I don't even need to hit it at that point. That's like if I play with shark attack rules, I'm just gonna show up, be like you're gonna tee off. No, this is par, let's go exactly.
Speaker 2:Yeah, let's just keep her home. I don't need to hit it. What? Why waste my energy? What other sport? We don't really watch any other sports the big three really.
Speaker 3:We're watching hockey here, so I was trying to think what could be embarrassing in hockey. I can't think of anything at the moment.
Speaker 2:Probably just getting your tail kicked.
Speaker 3:I mean a dude ripped his helmet off of me and smacked him in the head.
Speaker 1:Maybe that's embarrassing I don't know. Well, like I just saw the game that went off just a few minutes ago, these two guys kind of go to the ground, some random dude skates by, knocks off the guy's helmet and I'm like, and you can tell he's kind of looking around like what just? Happened and it was after the buzzer sounded and it was like a six to one game. It was like what just happened to you. What?
Speaker 3:was going on. So I was watching this last night and penalty high sticking the stick accidentally hits you and if there's an injury they consider it a lot of times it includes blood. Then it's a four-minute versus two-minute penalty. And a guy got hit in the mouth. He's checking his teeth. I'm like why do they not wear better helmets Right, or at least have the face shield?
Speaker 1:In college they have to. It's like a full face shield, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's what they. I don't get it.
Speaker 2:I feel like these dudes though these dudes know what they're signing up for these dudes are psychotic, oh they want it. Yeah, they would. I think they would rather play with notepads probably.
Speaker 1:If they'd let them, they probably would yeah.
Speaker 2:I had a neighbor growing up. They were from, they were from Canada, and they were big hockey people and you could just I mean, there's different, just tough tough dudes.
Speaker 1:I just don't want to be around them and there were.
Speaker 2:yeah.
Speaker 1:Well see, what I can't imagine, though, is how has there not been more deaths Because you got to think about, like, how many times they're? Falling and going down and sliding and like it's a blade.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, the skate. I mean a knife, it's a sword. There was a hockey player that died last year. Right yeah, it was at their throat.
Speaker 1:It wasn't NHL, it was a smaller promotion. I remember the article on that. But it just amazes me that you don't see that more, because it's Guys go down like that and get tangled up. There's blades everywhere.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's really bad.
Speaker 3:I think it's odd how hockey, when they get penalties, it's like we're just going to make you sit in this box.
Speaker 1:And watch.
Speaker 3:And you're going to play uneven Like could you imagine, if a guy gets flagged for passing interference, you sit over here. Now you're playing 11 on 10.
Speaker 1:You got to sit over here.
Speaker 3:Or basketball 5-1-4 now have a seat.
Speaker 1:Yeah, about the only similarity is like soccer, if they get a red card, like if somebody actually gets sent off. Yeah, you play a man down, but no other sport. Is that really a thing? Right you're never playing shorthanded yeah you know, I mean like maybe in a in basketball or football, if somebody goes down during the play like an injury but like, how else would you penalize hockey?
Speaker 3:like you can be like all right you get free two free shots at the goal.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know what else you really could do.
Speaker 2:So anyways, best action movies.
Speaker 1:I can tell this has been on your mind too. I would say that was a segue, and a half right there.
Speaker 3:He's been thinking about it, he was.
Speaker 1:He's got something.
Speaker 3:So best action movies Did you watch something recently.
Speaker 2:No, I was just thinking about it.
Speaker 1:I mean.
Speaker 3:Tyler likes Die Hard. He thinks it's a Christmas movie.
Speaker 1:The first one is it's not, is he right?
Speaker 3:I'm glad he's here.
Speaker 1:Here's the thing I'm not alone in saying that, so it.
Speaker 3:I'm not alone in saying that, so it's okay, I don't know if you heard our podcast back then when we did the Christmas movie bracket and we actually went and watched almost all of them. Some of them we knew already Quite a few yeah. And so I had to go back and watch Die Hard because it's been so many years. This is not a Christmas movie, no it's not, it's not.
Speaker 1:The entire thing takes place at a Christmas party.
Speaker 3:At a party. I didn't even see Santa anywhere.
Speaker 1:No, it's not a Christmas movie, but why does that have to dictate?
Speaker 3:a Christmas movie? It don't. There's got to be something they didn't even give presents.
Speaker 1:They didn't talk about it. Santa's not in A Christmas Carol.
Speaker 3:They didn't talk about Jesus.
Speaker 1:They didn't talk about that in A Christmas Carol either.
Speaker 3:You gotta have Jesus or Santa or tree or something, so why?
Speaker 1:is A Christmas Carol, a Christmas movie, other than the fact that it says it in the name.
Speaker 3:I don't even remember what A Christmas Carol is. Is that the one you made me watch the Muppets? One?
Speaker 1:Yeah, fantastic movie. It was better than I expected.
Speaker 3:It's a great story, anyways we're supposed to be talking about action movies, I know, but you went on that so top five action movies.
Speaker 1:I don't know that I can put them in order you don't have to. There are so many good ones, just give me five that you think are the best yeah, I'm just drawing a blank on action movies right now no, so like I remember when it came out in theaters and everything I really, really liked it. Like 300 was a great movie. Yeah, cause it's just, and again it's a good story, like really getting some of that out, not war.
Speaker 2:No, I'm trying not to go to war movies because, those feel like their own category.
Speaker 3:A war movie is a war movie. I did like the Transporter movies, transformers yeah.
Speaker 2:I like Transformers.
Speaker 1:No, he said Transporter, transporter, jason Statham Jason.
Speaker 3:Statham yeah, Driver, oh yeah, yeah, okay.
Speaker 2:Transformers are good too.
Speaker 3:But yeah.
Speaker 1:Transformers is alright. Would Would I have a problem with movies like that? If you've seen one, you've seen them all you have. They're like the exact same movie. It's like Taken Same things, they kept doing it.
Speaker 2:I watched the first Taken and I couldn't watch the others, I couldn't get behind Taken either.
Speaker 3:I don't know if these are action, but I love the Ocean Eleven movies and Italian Jobs.
Speaker 1:I don't throw that into action, it's close it's, it's close, it's close, it's fast and furious action, fast and furious, I think.
Speaker 3:So action, yeah, I think that'd be considered for sure, definitely, definitely. The early movies were great, as they get the early ones.
Speaker 1:I liked because it was like it was actually following what the culture was like. It's like this is about cars, yeah, and we kept it about cars. Now they're going to space, they're jumping off a building, it's, it's turned fully action like a hundred percent. Um, no, so I'm trying to stay out of the war movies, cause there's a lot of really good war movies, but in 300, probably really more war than anything, but I really do like it. Um, I'm drawing a blank, I'm like I mean.
Speaker 1:I'll definitely throw in the whole star wars series. That's action, it's fantastic. Here we go, I know, I know, but like that, that to me, because that's something I like. But again, like you, get into any, uh any jason statham movie, no matter what it's named, yeah it's the same movie like he plays one character.
Speaker 3:It is they're all the same, but it's usually great.
Speaker 1:I really loved growing up to mission impossible movies yeah like I thought those were great. Yeah, Not a huge Tom Cruise fan, but I've always I just always liked those movies.
Speaker 3:Oh, mr and Mrs Smith. Yeah, I liked that one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I haven't thought about that one in a long time, that's a good, they actually did the remake. Did they do a remake?
Speaker 1:Yeah, god who? Angelina Jolie? Right? Yeah, I think so, I think you're right. Yeah, so that was a good movie, but I don't know that I put that in my top five though.
Speaker 2:The Town.
Speaker 1:The Town. I've never seen it. I'm trying to think what that is. We're getting the look. I know I've got to do some Google. I guess we're going to have to check it out.
Speaker 2:Ben Affleck, boston Bank Robbers.
Speaker 1:Oh, yes, I've seen the town, it is incredible 2010. It's awesome 2013 maybe Check it out Another fun movie Baby Driver.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I like that movie Never seen it, john Wick.
Speaker 3:I think I've seen Pieces. I don't think I've seen.
Speaker 1:It's again once you get into movie four, it's like all right, what are we doing?
Speaker 2:No, that's not true. They're unbelievable. No, so they're good. The storyline is awesome. I need to watch it. It's like some of the most quotable movies. I'd say that to me would be one of is awesome. I love Keanu. That's part of it. He's awesome.
Speaker 1:Even like a little less popular the.
Speaker 2:Speed movie that he was in. That was good. That was a great movie.
Speaker 1:He did some really really good stuff.
Speaker 2:The Accountant.
Speaker 1:The Accountant. It's good.
Speaker 3:I don't think I've seen it. I don't think I've seen any of these. What do you do in your free time David. I like comedies most of the time. I will watch some actions, but I don't know. There's a spider coming down right in front of me, sorry.
Speaker 1:I liked Avatar. I think it's fantastic.
Speaker 2:No, no, no no no, it's okay I think the story of it is fantastic.
Speaker 3:I liked the Lincoln Lawyer. You ever seen that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's really good. That's a good lawyer. Tv show came out. I Lincoln Lawyer.
Speaker 3:You ever seen that yeah?
Speaker 1:it's really good TV show came out. I like the TV show better.
Speaker 2:I've seen clips of the.
Speaker 1:TV show.
Speaker 2:I haven't seen it at all, I think the TV show's way better. What is that movie? There's two I'm thinking of too. I think they might be classified war movies Battleship Rihanna's in it, my Girl.
Speaker 1:Horrible. Yeah, I thought that was pretty good. She's awful, though she's a horrible actress. She's bad. If you know what I'm saying, it's so many ways.
Speaker 2:And then is it Los Angeles Down or Battle Los Angeles.
Speaker 1:I'm not sure I know. I don't even think I know that one.
Speaker 2:Man man, you guys stink.
Speaker 1:Well, so here's the thing.
Speaker 3:Before I had kids old before.
Speaker 1:I had kids and before I was married, I watched movies like crazy. Yeah, I feel like I watch all the movies did either one of you watch old movie? Passenger 57 have you seen that definitely not that sounds familiar it's an older movie, yeah, so I'm blank on who it is now, but anyways, you want to go back to something that you used to play on TNT all the time, con Air I knew you was going to say Con Air.
Speaker 3:I knew it, it's a great movie.
Speaker 1:I've seen that movie like a million and a half times.
Speaker 3:See I like comedy, so some of the comedy actions I like. What's that?
Speaker 2:there was one with the Rock and Kevin Hart.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's what I was just thinking of. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Like so something is funny, yeah Awful.
Speaker 1:I actually watched that recently.
Speaker 2:Yeah, inception.
Speaker 1:Inception is fantastic.
Speaker 2:Fantastic.
Speaker 1:So I I really like interstellar too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think that's. I like.
Speaker 1:interstellar, I like, I think interstellar might be my top five. It's much more suspense thriller type yeah, it's good Kingsman.
Speaker 2:anyone seen that?
Speaker 1:Nope, yeah, I wasn't really big into them.
Speaker 2:I like it. I'm just looking. I will say Mad Max is good, Mad Max I've seen a long long time ago.
Speaker 3:Clearly, I haven't watched a lot of these movies, but you know what I've been watching a lot lately, late at night Seinfeld. I would say we've had this. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. I have. After you talked about it, he, he got back. It's the greatest show ever. So on youtube tv I can set it to record it. So now it's recording every episode, nice. So I've just been going back and like watching the first season and whatnot it's hilarious, it's such it is.
Speaker 2:It's a great show in the fact of to show about nothing.
Speaker 1:You never have to watch it or there's never like. Well, I need to go back and watch season one.
Speaker 3:No you don't Just watch it whenever. It is a great show. It's so good. It's really good.
Speaker 1:I admit that. But that's the thing. You don't have shows like that. We don't have anything like that now. There's nothing that I just want to sit there and watch the office was good see, I never got into the office.
Speaker 3:So everybody says if I get past the first season I'd like it. But that's pretty funny.
Speaker 1:The first season is a little bit slower, but that's pre. That's pretty dude, it's funny, it's so funny. Steve Carell. That's before he really started doing movies in the first season. Between one and two is when he got started getting some fame and you can tell in season two like just his comfort so much better.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that show is hilarious have you guys seen until he leaves.
Speaker 1:But then, like once he leaves, it's like all right, you can start watching have you guys seen neighborhood watch?
Speaker 2:uh, yeah that sounds familiar to me um I think my personal, I think the funniest actor I've ever watched is vince vaughn I cannot stand v Vaughn what is wrong with you.
Speaker 1:What is seriously wrong with you? He is another one. He only has one person. He is so funny. He is one person.
Speaker 2:And he is so good at it, it is so funny, like on Couples Retreat.
Speaker 1:He's hilarious, oh gosh he's awful in that movie. I just I don't think he's the internship with Owen Wilson is so funny.
Speaker 3:Owen Wilson is one of the. You always know him. He has the same voice, the same actions, the same Vince.
Speaker 2:Vaughn is hilarious.
Speaker 1:Vince Vaughn to me. I don't find him funny.
Speaker 2:Four Christmases. He's hilarious.
Speaker 1:Again, another movie I don't like Honestly. Him in a movie kind of ruins it for me.
Speaker 2:Really.
Speaker 1:I don't like him, he just annoys me. Well, it me really like I. Just I don't like him, he just annoys me. Well, it's been fun. I would say this wouldn't be the first time. Today I said we couldn't be friends, so, like I know, it's perfectly okay, is it what?
Speaker 3:what is he? And I'm thinking of the breakup.
Speaker 1:He's good listen, he's been in a ton of stuff. That's the one with jennifer anderson. Yeah, not, not modern. I couldn't tell you the last movie I mean.
Speaker 3:I don't know. He done that christmas movie where he's like santa claus's brother or something. That was kind of weird, because he just doesn't fit the whole christmas thing.
Speaker 2:No, um, he was in the delivery man he's been a ton of stuff.
Speaker 3:Is he the wedding crashers?
Speaker 1:yes, wedding crashers yes, now I do like that movie. That movie is hilarious, it's funny but no horrible bosses?
Speaker 2:he's not, that's funny he's not a uh so I've.
Speaker 3:Even. As a kid, my favorite actor has always been Adam Sandler.
Speaker 2:Oh, I think he is so bad, do you really? I do not like him.
Speaker 3:Oh, I love everything he does. Now he does some stupid stuff Click was so bad. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Click was a rough movie. It was rough, it was a rough movie.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I go back to the you, but there's so many movies those guys do, that's like they can't all be great.
Speaker 1:Sure, because you think about Adam Sandler. You've got Billy Madison. Happy Gilmore, oh, happy Gilmore. Yeah, you've got Big Daddy. You've got the Waterboy.
Speaker 2:I mean there's so many that he's done that you're like, those are fantastic.
Speaker 1:But then there's a few he's done. You're like what are we doing here?
Speaker 3:Because they started doing these one-off weird movies on Netflix that just don't make a lot of sense.
Speaker 1:And a lot of actors are doing that now. Did you watch the Adam Sandler movie where he's in space? I don't think so.
Speaker 3:Awful, I can imagine.
Speaker 1:But it's not a comedy, so that's the thing. It's like a serious movie that he did and he befriends a giant spider in space. Yeah, that sounds weird. It is the weirdest thing.
Speaker 3:I've only seen him one movie. That was serious, that was good and that was. I think it's called the Cobbler. He's like a shoemaker or whatever.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I haven't seen it. He was good in it and it wasn't a comedy. I think he's great in what's the one. He's the coach, will, he's recruiting and he's the coach and it's when he goes to Spain, finds a. I don't think I've seen that movie.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's a good movie. It's pretty good. I like that. What's the other one with Kevin Garnett?
Speaker 1:Where he's the agent.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, that one's hilarious Jim. Something cut, jim yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that one's hilarious Jim. Something cut Jim, yeah, oh, I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1:Yep, that one's hilarious too. Uncut Jims, uncut Jims. Yep, you're right, so is.
Speaker 3:Vince Vaughn, your favorite actor, like all time.
Speaker 2:I would put him up top five I think John. Krasinski's up there. I think Jerry Seinfeld's on there.
Speaker 1:Jerry Seinfeld's up there for actors.
Speaker 2:Maybe it's really George Alexander or Jason Alexander that's really up there, because I think he's funny.
Speaker 1:He's fantastic, he's hilarious, he's funny, he's very funny. I agree with that.
Speaker 2:There's another guy that I've always really liked. I can't remember his name. He must not be that good.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I can't remember him.
Speaker 2:I don't like fall in love with actors.
Speaker 1:I really just like movies.
Speaker 2:I wrote yeah, so I, I, I can fall in love with a role.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but like the actor itself, I don't typically like just love an individual like, but there's certain roles I'm like that was fantastic so you said earlier, like you think there was a movie you said it might be your top five. Like what? What's the go-to movie, though? Like you're just like favorite movie. What are you watching 13 hours as like your favorite?
Speaker 1:if I had to sit down, if you had that's don't know fantastic movie, absolutely fantastic okay, but as the as like the number one, like if I can only watch one movie yeah, 13 hours.
Speaker 2:Wow, I think it's really well done. I think it portrays it really well I do agree with, I think.
Speaker 1:I think the whole situation is portrayed well in that?
Speaker 3:yeah, it is. You asked a question, tyler, so what's yours then?
Speaker 1:um, I pulled fiction too. I really liked for a long, long time I thought shawshank redemption is a great movie just because. I think it's a great story. I think it's like it's played out very, very well. But, again, I haven't been into movies in so long that I'm just really following that, so I don't know that I really have an answer on that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't know the last time I've watched a movie.
Speaker 1:Well, I'm currently watching.
Speaker 3:Especially the kids movie. I currently watched a couple of movies and I got a long ways to go on the whole.
Speaker 1:Thing. I got this bright idea that I'm going to watch from start to finish chronological order, which I've never done all of the Star Wars stuff. It's like a year and a half commitment it's a big commitment because you got to think there's nine movies of the main movies, not even talking about the other stuff. So, yeah, it's going to be a long committed for the long haul on that one.
Speaker 2:I think if I had to do a TV show, if you had to make me sit down and watch a TV show, I think it's Band of Brothers.
Speaker 1:See, I think I would pick, even like a comedy or something with that.
Speaker 3:I must not watch enough TV.
Speaker 1:I would almost go with, like the Office or something like that. Because, it's already so quotable as it is. And then every time you watch it, there's something else that you find, and it was a show that was done really, really well, david has to watch Band of Brothers.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I've never seen it. It's a requirement as a male on this planet. Okay.
Speaker 1:Well, requirement as a male on this planet, okay, uh. Well, see, like brad is always so my brother brad. Anytime that I'm like hey, I'm in a lull, like what's something I can watch, his first thing he's always going to tell me is you can never go wrong with sopranos, because that's like his go-to he's like he he probably watches the sopranos from start to finish once a year.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, it's it's pretty common for him. But he's a lot like my mom, like they don't have to actually watch it, right, it's kind of like just put it on play.
Speaker 3:That's my problem.
Speaker 1:I can't do that.
Speaker 3:I have to hear every word, everything.
Speaker 1:if I'm watching something, I need to actually see what's going on, because I Not just listen to people talk. I want to see a little bit more than that. There's some things I can do that with. There's some things I can't. In a show that I don't really know well or that I'm watching for the first time I got to actually watch it. So that is a little bit tougher. But he loves mob stuff. That's kind of a go-to thing for him. So I never really fall into that. But that kind of, I guess, kind of like for you, like I don't never cared for scarface, never cared for sopranos, like none of that stuff really I've never seen any of that.
Speaker 3:So yeah, I don't know what did you watch?
Speaker 1:like?
Speaker 3:there's all these things I feel like I've seen I don't know like you're like I never even there's a lot of movies and stuff people talk about I'm like never seen it, never seen it.
Speaker 3:I don't know, like you're, like I never even. There's a lot of movies and stuff people talk about I'm like never seen it, never seen it. I don't know. You know, I was gonna ask y'all because on the way here I was flipping through spotify and I'm seeing a lot of this band lately and I really think they're good, but so many people make fun of them and they might be a little bit before will, but maybe right, there is the band Creed. Do you think Creed is actually good? Because everybody loves to make fun of them?
Speaker 1:I think they're actually good bands. I think it's just one of those things that people are on, like Nickelback too.
Speaker 3:Yeah, exactly, I think Nickelback was decent.
Speaker 1:No, Nickelback sucks.
Speaker 3:You don't think so. I thought Nickelback was better than Creed.
Speaker 1:I think better. But but it has, like, okay, claimed to be a creed fan like I'm just like. Oh, creed has like four songs that everyone knows. Nickelback has a song. No, because they all sound the same. They have a ton of hits. Every song sounds the same like that.
Speaker 2:That, to me, is nickelback um, but I think now I will say this genre there is a lot of that I would say there is a lot of bands three doors down that group.
Speaker 3:Oh, I love Daughtry. I remember him on American Idol.
Speaker 1:Most of those groups. It's like if you've heard one, you've heard one, but they're awesome. There's plenty of good ones Now who was. I think it was you that told me favorite band. Maybe it was Counting Crows.
Speaker 2:Yeah, man.
Speaker 1:I would say, because it was not one.
Speaker 2:I expected you, of all people, to say just cause that's not one, that's not a common one, but two that's also older like one of the biggest ones, mr Jones oh, mr, oh, that's one of my favorite songs ever, mr Jones, that's right, yeah, I mean but we got to talk about that one day and will said that and I was like that one completely caught me off guard.
Speaker 1:I was not expecting, yeah him to say counting crows.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I love all different kinds of music so like, I love that genre but. I also love like 90s country like george straight's my guy. Oh I can't stand nice country really that I like.
Speaker 2:No, there's like a a period between, or friends again, so like I really, yeah, he's out, we're done. I love like waylon j Jennings and Merle Haggard and Hank Williams Jr. I think they're great, but that 90s of Alan Jackson George Strait, that was the best. I just don't. I saw Alan Jackson live. I saw Garth Brooks live. Garth Brooks was incredible live.
Speaker 1:Oh, I'm sure Alan Jackson was not good live.
Speaker 2:I just don't really love it. I thought Travis Tritt was good. Yeah, shenandoah was good.
Speaker 3:Shenandoah was really good. Yeah, I still listen to them all the time, so maybe I do Kind of like some of it. Yeah, you just kind of Gotta pick and choose.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I just the old country. To me, though, that's what I grew up on. That stuff is no, it's good Tyler won't listen to any country I know. We actually that today, and it doesn't make sense, how can you live here in the south of the united states of america like the most patriotic place in the world and not want to listen to toby keith? You know, like toby keith of all the people you could pick so yeah, I know why because he's got a couple patriotic songs.
Speaker 1:But I get that, but that was a very random pick, I'm just saying yeah, I have no desire for that I'm assuming it was never played In your house.
Speaker 3:Your parents probably Didn't listen to it.
Speaker 1:No, I mean, my parents Liked country music.
Speaker 3:But like 90s country, like listen to it.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, like that was something Like as a kid it was like a requirement If you're gonna go to NASCAR.
Speaker 1:But then, like my brother, oh for sure, my brother listened to Country like I mean he for a while was like really big in the country. But yeah, I mean I can remember being in the car and mom and dad like as a kid they would have some country playing. But no, I never liked it then.
Speaker 3:Didn't like it as I got older. I like a little bit of everything. I'll listen to whatever you can think of, I'll listen to something of it. Always bluegrass rap rock country, whatever listen to something of it Always bluegrass rap rock country, whatever.
Speaker 2:So, who rapper, who do you?
Speaker 1:I knew he got caught on that Because he'll have plenty for you here.
Speaker 3:I'm not like I'll listen to a lot of it, but there's like I can't think of anybody, so this is going to sound so crazy as a kid.
Speaker 2:Tell me you love DMX. Tell me you love dmx. Tell me.
Speaker 3:You love no, I loved m&m as a kid. Now I hate some of those lyrics because I'm not into the. That's not a crazy thing, some of those words he uses basically everybody of your age liked him, I mean everybody at my age liked him.
Speaker 2:Everyone my age like them. That's what I'm saying. Like generational.
Speaker 1:It's um he is the one that like, if you like rap at all, you like, because he's that talented he was probably the one rapper outside.
Speaker 3:Like I said, some of the lyrics and the language I didn't love, but, um, I could listen to everything he did. Most of the others it was a stand few here and there. Yeah, uh-huh, yeah, that that was tearjerker. Um, that whole gosh. What was that early 2000s? Probably yeah, some of the newer stuff. I don't really know of his stuff because I don't it's pretty good, but pretty good, um, yeah, dmx, I mean jaw roll, so it's bad but it wasn't like I didn't want to listen to everything they did.
Speaker 3:There was just a few songs here and there that I liked.
Speaker 1:Um, there's very few people, though, that have 10, 15, 20, whether it's bands, artists, whatever that they're like, I'll listen to everything. Yeah, like it's usually going to be a pick and choose yeah, for sure maybe five songs, or little wayne. You know see, little wayne was really big, never did much for me, yeah, I mean like he was huge when I was. I mean I can remember carter three and like all that stuff coming out.
Speaker 2:This officer, come on yeah.
Speaker 1:I've told David I was the only white kid on my basketball team my senior year. We had moved down there and it's like that's all we had. We were listening to Lil Wayne like crazy. All those guys were coming over to my house. We hung out crazy all the time. That's the stuff that's being played and I'm like I can't imagine my parents are enjoying this. Like I mean, fortunately my room was a little bit separate, but it's like, yeah, it was probably pretty loud, but see.
Speaker 3:I would listen to something like that and then turn right around and put on Dwight Yoakam or something.
Speaker 2:Dwight Yoakam. Yeah, I mean just like for one thing or another.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, I mean just like from one to the other. Dwight Yoakam is good Dwight.
Speaker 2:Yoakam, he's good Boy.
Speaker 3:He was even a pretty good actor, craig.
Speaker 2:Morgan.
Speaker 1:Craig Morgan, that's a good back. So you asked David, what's your go-to rap then?
Speaker 2:Oh, I mean, you guys won't. Did you ever listen to Twista? What Did?
Speaker 3:you just say that's older.
Speaker 2:What just came out of your mouth? That's a little older.
Speaker 3:He was like the fastest rapper ever back in the day.
Speaker 2:I mean my go-to is Tribe, called Quest no doubt.
Speaker 3:See, I don't know who that is. I might know their songs, but I don't know.
Speaker 1:I know who that is, will, yeah, I don't know who it is.
Speaker 2:You're good. Outkast just got put in the Hall of Fame by the way I did.
Speaker 1:You're right, it's a big deal, andre 3000. I think, deserved so deserved. They did so much for that era of music.
Speaker 2:But like modern. Drake, kendrick are really really good. Future is awesome. You guys don't probably know who that is.
Speaker 1:So Future is awesome. You guys don't know who that is, so the thing is, you got to remember.
Speaker 2:I did work with that age for quite a while. So there's a lot that I was listening to whether I was or not, I can definitely say as I've gotten older, rap has dwindled on my playlist.
Speaker 1:But I think it does for everybody. But why is that?
Speaker 2:It's because I'm not doing anything super competitive anymore and I think that is geared towards competitive stuff in a way. Yeah, gotcha, yeah, the pace of the little more mellow. Yeah, everything, yeah.
Speaker 1:Definitely more mellow now. Um, I can't really say. I listen to much mellow, so no, you don't. We went over that today and he's like what is this?
Speaker 2:I listened to a ton. I think John Mayer is the greatest Crazy guitar player.
Speaker 1:He's the greatest guitarist of all time. I have not listened to John Mayer in so long.
Speaker 2:He is the greatest guitarist who ever walked this planet. Ooh, that's an old statement, and it's not an unpopular one. He's really good. It's not unpopular, no.
Speaker 1:I'm not saying he's not, I'm just like there's been a lot of good ones.
Speaker 2:Even like the ZZ Top guy was, like John Mayer's the best. He's better than all of us. Just go listen to some of his live albums and he just goes off.
Speaker 1:I remember listening to some of his older stuff, but that's not somebody I've probably listened to in a long time.
Speaker 2:Not because I choose to ignore him. He's incredible.
Speaker 1:I really haven't listened to him.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I haven't felt the need to listen to your body.
Speaker 1:It's all in concert, it Salmon concert. I completely forgot about that song.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's I'm also. I feel like I'm a deadhead too, really. Yeah, yeah, I love that culture. I think it's awesome, fair and now it's very different than what I typically do. Right, jam band is cool, like fish dead and company almond brothers like that stuff.
Speaker 1:I think it's just it reminds me a lot of bluegrass music. I'd agree with that. It's uh. What's weird, though, because we've had this discussion gosh, it's been a couple months ago. Like, you get into, start having the discussion of, all right, what was the best era, what was the best decade of music? And it's hard because you get into any decade, there's a lot of really good stuff but you go back to some of the 80s stuff. Those bands were just putting out so much good stuff.
Speaker 2:Yeah, all the time Back to back to back to back and it all felt different.
Speaker 1:It all felt the original per band like. So it's one of those I'm like I wasn't even an 80s kid yeah, but it's hard not to just go back there and be like, across every genre there was just good stuff happening yeah, yeah, I always go to the 90s, but yeah, there's a lot of stuff modern stuff's good too oh, there's some good modern stuff I mean there's a lot of really good stuff out right now.
Speaker 1:It's. I think it gets harder the more time goes, because it gets so much more flooded with people. Oh, you guys are just boomers and you're just.
Speaker 1:No, but I just I just think, though, like it is so much easier for some of these people to produce music now that that's good music I'm not even saying it's just the crap that some people put out, but that there are actual good music being put out that I think you're going to see way more of the one-hit wonders. You're going to see way more of Vanilla Ice. Come on, yeah, you're going to see that style, because it's like these guys put out one good song.
Speaker 3:But the way the world is now is like all right. Well, that was cool, you did that last year, but what did you do this year? And it's just like everybody forgot. You can just throw it up on social media now, right, and so I do think there's a lot more uh, singers, musicians, whatever, because they can get known like that.
Speaker 1:So much easier, correct yeah, I mean it's changed.
Speaker 3:But I mean you look at how many of these guys you know have gotten relevant off of TikTok like they're you know they do music, but they actually got big on TikTok, so then their music picked up, because people found I mean there's a guy in Texas I love listening to that I found on Instagram and he was doing covers of like 90s country kind of caught my attention and you listen to him and he's doing his own like I don't know what to call it blues, but like a country, bluey, rocky mix and it's awesome. I found him doing little clips on Instagram Like you never would have had that before, exactly.
Speaker 1:Exactly. Oh, but that's like what's the guy that did that song that everybody was listening to for a while? Real country guy playing a banjo.
Speaker 2:Oh, richmond North.
Speaker 1:Yeah, north Richmond, um real country guy playing a banjo. Oh uh, richmond north, yeah, north, richmond, yeah.
Speaker 2:So, but like something like that that doesn't happen and he is a one-hit wonder oh 100 well, he doesn't want the fame that's a lie.
Speaker 1:He's picked up every show he could find afterwards like like, yeah, it was a really easy thing to first come out and say I don't want that, and then he's like headlining shows and he's like signing up for all these different festivals.
Speaker 3:I'm like yeah, well, you can't say that, you can't say that and then go do the exact opposite.
Speaker 3:So so, talking about social media and I don't mean to change too much I the other day I found myself on facebook or something. I looked up, I had a notification, doesn't seem what it was. They said no, I'm like scrolling'm like scrolling different stuff. And I think I told you last time I caught myself watching somebody kick a rock around on social media. But through the day I was like I'm really getting to the point that I'm sick of social media, like there is so much crap on there and the algorithms will give you the most random things for you to look at. I'm kind of over it and I know I'm getting a little older I'm not 40 yet, but do you find yourself that way?
Speaker 1:I find myself that way. So to me, what social media started, as to what it's become, is difficult, because it has become all about an algorithm-based Like. You won't even see people's posts if it doesn't fit your algorithm.
Speaker 3:Like your's post. I'm like why am I seeing this?
Speaker 2:This is exactly what we talked about last week.
Speaker 1:We did talk about it last week. We talked about this last week.
Speaker 2:We are way too accessible. As humans. I don't think that we are designed to have these. I don't think it's in our nature to be doom-scrolling. I think it really.
Speaker 1:It can rewire our brains and it takes us away from our. Why do you think we're seeing the spike in anxiety and depression?
Speaker 2:exactly when you have a screen in your face 24 7 and I had a and I've had a couple conversations about like. Like news is so different. Now used to news was just like local, your local news, and then you know you get some federal stuff. But they called it the local news right and that's.
Speaker 2:It was only that's all you would get, yeah but now, you know, on twitter, I can see this family from across the country that is struggling because of gun violence or because you know their, their kid, had cancer and died and and now I am taking that in, and now I'm worried about this family 400 miles away. It has nothing to do with you, it has nothing to do with me, but now it's changing my mentals to where now I'm going to be thinking about them, whereas I think that we should care about our families and our community, and it shouldn't really stretch far beyond that.
Speaker 3:Maybe that's super selfish of me to say no, I get your point, because we all get stretched so thin All the time and now I feel like it's just easy. Like you said, it's easy I say all the time I've got a lot going on different teams, I'm coaching and kids and ball games and the four-year golf and all this and I'm like man, I'm stretched thin. But you're talking about it in almost a mentally stretched thin, like we're not talking about what you got to do, like your mind can only take so much like how can you ever turn your mind off when you go to sleep?
Speaker 3:oh, you can't, yeah, you're right, you don't anymore. I mean you got me. You think, especially if you're sleeping with this oh, for sure.
Speaker 2:There are studies that say that if this is in your room, you sleep worse.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I have heard that. I have heard that.
Speaker 3:See, I find myself when I wake up in the morning, I start checking emails and stuff on my phone and it's horrible Like what happened.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, but we talked about that a few weeks ago too. Like there's. No, not like all all the jobs now are designed where it's like hey, we need to be able to reach you at any given time.
Speaker 1:I mean I work from home, so I kind of right never leave it like you, and that's probably another thing, and I don't know we discussed it like the fact that america especially because that's what we see, because that's where we're at we have pushed so heavy for this like work from home thing. That's the worst possible thing we could have done.
Speaker 3:Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the freedoms that come with it, Right, but you now have no separation.
Speaker 1:You don't? There is no like I go here, do this. Now I come home and I'm free Because we do so much of that.
Speaker 3:It's like no, you work all the time. It kind of intertwines with everything.
Speaker 1:There is no separation of and this thing, like we know that separation is really good growing up you know parents come home from work.
Speaker 3:They're home from work, right, you're eating dinner, you're. You know whatever you're doing after dinner, you're getting ready for bed, whatever. And that ain't the way anymore. Now you're looking at work stuff, and you're because you know you went to your kids ball game earlier, so now you got to make up something else.
Speaker 1:It's just well, but that's the annoying thing.
Speaker 3:I don't think we're designed for that.
Speaker 1:Times have changed. It's like no, we have let this change. That's something that we have let others dictate, and now it's taking over more of our life. We are working way more hours than we're actually getting paid for we're doing way more things than we really should.
Speaker 2:I just don't ever want, at the end of my life, when it's all said and done, to look at how many days I've wasted scrolling on my phone.
Speaker 1:Oh gosh, it's going to be a lot.
Speaker 2:Right, and I just don't want that to be a thing where I look back and I'm like I lost two years of my life scrolling on a phone, whereas, like I could spend those.
Speaker 3:Well, I'll admit, that's what I do when I'm kind of in a situation I'll say bored, like to the doctor's office, I'm gonna be checking emails. I don't have any certain emails.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna be looking at something I think it might be the weather it might be the news it might be. Just look at facebook and what we're seeing is we're seeing a dip in social interaction because used to you just talk to somebody.
Speaker 1:Yeah, if there's somebody there, you'd chat it up. Hey, what's going on Yep.
Speaker 3:I missed that. Now everybody's doing that, but now it's literally like if you tried to do that.
Speaker 1:You're the weird one.
Speaker 3:And I know we do. Why are you interrupting me, don't you see I'm doing something? We sound like, like you said, like some old boomers sitting here, but it really is the truth. It's gotten crazy and I find myself all the time thinking Well, but that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:People are just like, well, that's the times that have changed. It's like, well, no, just because you're okay with that doesn't mean it's okay with what we're doing. So it's easy to say, yeah, well, you're just old and you need to just understand. That's how things are. No don't let your life be taken over by it we all have. There's no way to not, unfortunately.
Speaker 3:My daughter has a phone now and she's not allowed on social media. She hasn't had that yet. She's got a phone so we can get ahold of her and she has a few games on there. And I, like you're in the car, talk, look around, look at the scenery, yeah, and it's not like all the time, but I just feel like we miss so much we miss, so looking at the phone, yeah even the drives you take every day.
Speaker 1:You miss something because something is simple like that's what I love about the masters there is no phones. Yeah, yeah, like you're gonna live in the moment you're gonna watch it. I'm like that's so cool, so how do?
Speaker 2:they do that? How do they police that?
Speaker 3:you put in a locker if you're found with your phone out like you're out, see you like it's well, you're not allowed you're not allowed to post.
Speaker 1:You can post like pictures from like at the gate or like up at the main, like first thing, but like once you get, on course, the only pictures they allow posted, the only anything like it's their stuff, their publications look at their other sporting events. Yeah uh, concerts everybody's got their phone out. Oh it's crazy.
Speaker 3:You're watching a concert through your phone, instead of just sit back watching the call.
Speaker 2:So there's, there's plenty of things I've been at that I'll purposely I'm not getting my phone out there's I want to be here there's a cool picture of Phil Knight when LeBron scored his 30,000th point Right, and all around him there's people with their phones out.
Speaker 3:I did see that I didn't realize that's who it was, but yeah, he's just sitting there.
Speaker 1:But that's my thought. If I'm at big games, there's always people with phones. I'm like they'll get it for me. But that's why I'm like why do we all need it?
Speaker 3:I mean, don't get me wrong. Yeah, okay, if I'm at a game, my favorite players there, let me get a quick picture, but then I'm watching the game.
Speaker 1:I got a picture. I don't need 15. My whole thing, my whole thing, is that picture is no different than the picture you got offline. Oh, you're right. Yeah, so it's like why do I need to take that?
Speaker 3:picture so I can put on my facebook and say look where I was. Exactly that's what we do it.
Speaker 1:That's it Okay, but here's my thing, take a picture on the way in. I agree, everybody knows you were there. Yeah, like, once I'm in, like I just want to watch it. Yeah, like I don't need all the pictures, I don't need all this stuff. So like when we went On a four-hour evening Exactly. Okay, cool. But the people that are literally like, well, yeah, I've basically got the whole first quarter recorded. I'm like, well, you could have stayed home for that and it would have been a better broadcast.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Like what's the point?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't get it. I mean I don't get it. I mean I do get it because I do it too, but I don't know if it ever changes. I don't know. I wonder if at some point we're going to almost revert back.
Speaker 2:No, it always. We're going to do these cycles. Pendulum swings back.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I feel like it has to at some point. It has Just with all of our technology and everything we're doing it's getting to be a lot.
Speaker 1:Are we going to choose that it happens, or is it going to be taken from us by by some other means?
Speaker 3:yeah, I don't know I robot.
Speaker 1:I don't necessarily mean I robot, but I mean there's, I am there, don't get started on a vaccine because that's how that got started. Great movie, by the way. That's another. That's how that got started. Great movie, by the way. That's another action movie. It's a good movie. It's a fantastic movie I actually saw.
Speaker 3:The I Robot.
Speaker 1:not too long ago, I didn't care for I Robot as much, but I thought I Am Legend was great.
Speaker 2:Will Smith in that era was really good.
Speaker 1:He was in everything Pretty good in that era.
Speaker 2:Yep in everything Pretty good in that area. Yeah, he was a good movie.
Speaker 1:He was one of those that I mean he's, he's good.
Speaker 2:We go through these spurts.
Speaker 1:It's like this guy or this one.
Speaker 2:Independence Day was really good. He was literally in everything.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the original Independence Day is fantastic.
Speaker 3:I like the Bad Boys movies. Yeah, they're funny.
Speaker 2:He's funny in them.
Speaker 1:Those. I hadn't seen that most recent one until like really recent, just cause I'm like I've seen all the others. Might as well, watch, watch this one and it's it's like man they have, they've aged it doesn't feel the same, Like like nothing about. It feels like the old, the old movies that they did.
Speaker 3:You know, y'all, y'all mentioned this last week, and so this is what we need to get back to instead of our phones y'all were talking about and again this goes to where, when I'm listening, where my mind goes, when what y'all are talking about, y'all were talking about companies, um, basically having monopolies, and you were talking about stuff my mind went to the board game. Like I loved the monopoly board game, my favorite board game ever. Uh, he was rolling his eyes over there so we I think it's terrible oh that's the best game ever.
Speaker 1:We used to play a lot of board games like uh, me and my wife and him and his wife pre-k. Before we had kids this was all before kids like every weekend that was just for iphones too right around that time I guess I had an iphone, yeah.
Speaker 3:But yeah, moon beautiful right there, awesome um, I thought y'all saw lights come across the field. I thought that's what he was looking at too.
Speaker 1:No, I looked and saw that. I was like that looks really cool, but we just play a lot of games and so every now and then, like once, maybe every six months, we break down and say, all right, you know, we know, david wants to play monopoly. Yeah, so we do it. Usually I try to waste money as quickly as possible to get out because, I don't enjoy that game monopoly.
Speaker 3:It's not a fun game um, I just love that, that finance type stuff, I guess I don't know to me, a board game shouldn't take that long all right, oh, scrabble like scrabble.
Speaker 1:Oh, I hate scrabble but to me, like a, those games are not designed to be a long-term. Those are fairly quick interactions Monopoly you can play for days.
Speaker 2:That is the thing with Monopoly.
Speaker 3:It is such a long game. There are ways you can speed it up. It takes some of the game away, I think. So it's like what's the point of that instance? But I enjoyed it, but they could make it quicker.
Speaker 1:There was one game we weren't allowed to play after like that first time we played it, which was it? And this was your wife that said no to it, you know you know, you know, got banned in our group pretty quickly I don't remember this well, because uno's one of those games.
Speaker 3:Everybody has a different rule set oh, that's right yeah everybody plays, you know, differently she had different rules, so she grew up, three of us all pretty had pretty close the same thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she had very different ones, so it was like it just didn't it didn't work, like it was one of those like yeah, we just can't play this.
Speaker 3:Like that's what we need. We need a? Uh. Well, I'm gonna say we need a board game bracket, but what do you? You're talking about uno. What do you consider board games? Does it have to have a board or is like Uno? Well so yeah, I think it's.
Speaker 1:I mean a board game is to me like it's gotta have a board. But I just say, you know any kind of like those type of games like card games, board games like.
Speaker 3:I still mix those all together so yeah.
Speaker 1:So the problem is, though, especially now that we've got, I have a number Monopoly's going out first round. Oh, I know, like without a doubt, yeah, that's a horrible game.
Speaker 3:Best game ever.
Speaker 1:But no, I mean, like we used to play a lot of like catchphrase, that was a fun game.
Speaker 3:What other game has lasted as long as Monopoly and still on the shelves today?
Speaker 1:It doesn't mean it's good. No, I agree. It's clearly got to be good. Really long time doesn't mean they're good. People are still buying them.
Speaker 2:Crack's been around for a while doesn't mean it's good yeah, okay I wasn't expecting that.
Speaker 3:Okay, yeah I mean he's not around for a while well, it used to be in coca-cola, apparently, right it was originally yeah I hate coke. Is that a conspiracy theory? No that's not a conspiracy that was the only place. So every now and then I'll drink a coke. I don't think it tastes good, but but at McDonald's I'll get one occasionally because it's different.
Speaker 2:That's not the same thing. They sprinkle a little bit more cocaine, mcdonald's Coke.
Speaker 3:So here's the thing, that's it. You're getting sued by McDonald's.
Speaker 1:McDonald's Coke and Coke in Mexico is not like any other Coke.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, so it's funny. You said that I was walking through Walmart a few weeks ago, walked by a four-pack of glass-bottled Coke from Mexico.
Speaker 1:Yes, I thought I'm going to try this. You can get the glass-bottled Coke. It's not the same. Yeah, Like Coke from Mexico is different. Well, I took it home. It's so much better.
Speaker 3:It was like I actually had to have a bottle opener.
Speaker 1:You had to have a bottle opener. I had to go find my Swiss Army knife, my swiss army knife, so I could open it. That's what I did. Uh, didn't like it, not at all. It was weird. I mean probably because your taste was a ruin from all the crap that we have probably so but I I didn't love it it said it was made with pure cate sugar. Better, it's a lot different peanut butter most food in other countries is actually better because it's way less preserved.
Speaker 3:Hey, we got we got bobby jr working on it. It's gonna be a long process.
Speaker 1:it's way less preservatives. Hey, we got Bobby Jr working on it. It's going to be a long process. It's going to be a long process, though.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Because I mean even the stuff that they've done so far on. It's like such a minuscule thing.
Speaker 2:Red 40.
Speaker 1:Red 40 is horrible for you, Doubt though Spanned, and it should be.
Speaker 2:Did they finally do it? Yeah, absolutely Right, and it should be. Did they finally do it? It was absolutely horrible.
Speaker 3:Everybody talked about it and I probably should have done it but I never, really could.
Speaker 2:I never drank anything that had Red 40 in it.
Speaker 3:I couldn't tell you what did have it, and didn't I never looked Almost?
Speaker 2:everything.
Speaker 1:Red 40 is in so many things that you wouldn't even think that would have red in it. It has Red 40.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I mean, it's outrageous.
Speaker 2:It's cancer-causing.
Speaker 1:Well, so for a lot of kids especially, it causes aggression.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I've heard that.
Speaker 1:I mean so it does for my oldest. We are very mindful what he eats and drinks, because if I had read 40, like he has too much of something. Like he is hateful and I mean both of you know him. Like he is a sweetheart kid. Like that's not who he is, but he, he did make a comment today. He's like I'm upset, I was like what's wrong. He's like they're not making fruit loops anymore and I was like fruit loops are good.
Speaker 1:I was like buddy, I think. I think they're just gonna change how it's made like it's. It's not that they're getting rid of it. And he's like are they gonna taste different? I was like I don't. It's not that they're getting rid of it. He's like are they going to taste different? I was like I don't know that. But basically they're just going to have to use naturally occurring ways to color it, like every other country in the world does it.
Speaker 3:So it's not like it's not already being done. We're probably going to hate the taste of this stuff, though.
Speaker 1:I don't care if it's healthy but I say in the immediate yes, but it'll.
Speaker 2:It'll be so much better for everyone when I'm living eight years longer than I should.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's worth it if not more, I mean if you're not exposed to the junk that we have now, you probably wouldn't notice the difference, like obviously you wouldn't like if you only ate healthy food, you would never know what. Yeah, it doesn't taste good, but I'll say this though healthy in america is relative.
Speaker 1:Well, I agree, because the amount of preservatives we have in everything like there's a reason. Other countries they.
Speaker 3:They go to the grocery store multiple times a week oh yeah, food, food lasts three days not you ever notice that in the old shows and even seinfeld's that way. Excuse me, where um? They'll come in with a grocery bag. It's like one bag. They just got a few little things in there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because you buy what you need for the next couple of days, yeah, or that night you can't buy. You don't buy a week's worth, two weeks, three weeks worth of food, like a lot of people do now.
Speaker 3:Our relationship with food. I eat all of it. I love it.
Speaker 1:You're a see it and eat it kind.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, for sure, all right. So we got hockey and basketball up here. I know y'all don't care about the hockey, probably.
Speaker 1:I do care about what just happened in basketball.
Speaker 3:I got to say what's happening here in basketball. Who do we think is going to take it?
Speaker 2:Minnesota, I think Minnesota beats beats.
Speaker 1:Gold State. I'm telling you, I think if the Knicks finish off Boston, you think they're going to win it. I think they're in the championship purely because they need a big market. If you look at all the other markets, you've got Minnesota, oklahoma City, indiana.
Speaker 2:Indiana. I would love the Pacers.
Speaker 1:You have such small markets that it's like I think they need a New York or Boston. They need somebody like that just to have something relevant.
Speaker 3:So you think it's going to be a little rigged. I think, it's going to be just like the draft lottery. Just like the draft.
Speaker 1:I don't think there's any way to question that that team is going to be so good.
Speaker 2:The.
Speaker 1:Mavericks.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Didn't that happen to them when they traded somebody too? Who was it? So the?
Speaker 1:Mavericks have never had the number one pick. This is their first time.
Speaker 2:But we've seen in recent history when LeBron left the Cavaliers, they got the number one Happened twice in New Orleans.
Speaker 1:When New Orleans lost CP3, they got the number one pick. And who'd they pick with it? Anthony Davis, when Anthony Davis left, they got it again.
Speaker 3:When Anthony Davis left, they got it yep.
Speaker 1:And so there's actually a lot of people that are making the comment that it's not just that that was rigged. They believe the NBA forced the Luka trade because they need LA to be relevant. Because if you go back to the time where you had like Magic Larry, you had Wesley Johnson and Robert Sacre. That was the head of the Lakers and most people are going to say those are accountants.
Speaker 3:Those are not basketball players. When the trade happened, you started talking about it and you said hey, I'm kind of liking Luka. You started watching a little bit more.
Speaker 1:I like Luka. I liked him at the Mavericks, though I think he's a fantastic player. I think it's polarizing that he's at LA, but I still don't think it works, because LeBron is not the type that can really play with that anymore.
Speaker 3:I don't think so either but it did bring some attention to those sports that needed it, but it was a flash in the pan. Yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't feel like it's a long-term fix because, again, lebron maxed one year. I don't think he's got much left. I don't think he's got much left. I don't think he leaves LA. Yeah, why wouldn't you Like for him? He wanted to be in LA and finish his career as the guy he's the second best player on the team now. I mean just he's 40. Like he's not gonna be the LeBron from 15 years ago, he just can't be, so why would he stay?
Speaker 1:to me, it makes no sense to stay. The mavericks are gonna be so good.
Speaker 3:They're gonna be tough. They're gonna be so if things stay healthy. Because davis can't say healthy.
Speaker 1:I mean he gets hurt by looking at the court. I think kairi super flagged together. It's gonna be awesome. That could be dangerous, yeah here's.
Speaker 3:Here's the question, though do they trade the number one pick? No, no, why would you?
Speaker 1:mean you have to make a good offer. They don't have a star. I don't even think the Bucs can say here's Giannis.
Speaker 3:I don't think they go for that.
Speaker 1:They don't need that. They need something that can stretch, because Anthony Davis is not a stretch four. They need basically a three with the size of a four, which is Cooper flag, who is going to be good, he's gonna be great. Yeah, he's got. He's got the potential. I mean, he stays healthy. That's going to be. The key is like just has to stay healthy, he stays healthy, he's he's, he's pretty. Now there is a rumor Giannis could go to San Antonio.
Speaker 3:Now, that would be sweet.
Speaker 1:We've talked about this, giannis and Wimby together, would be dangerous.
Speaker 3:I hate seeing these guys move around so much.
Speaker 1:I love it.
Speaker 3:I just want to see them part of a team and stay there a while. You don't have to stay there forever.
Speaker 1:That would mean that they're faithful to somebody they don't care about. That, I know. But the team's the same way. They guys stop it, the teams, but the teams the same way. They don't care about that.
Speaker 3:No, they don't, I agree.
Speaker 1:They're not going to be faithful to a guy either, so it's like why should the player?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I know it's different. I just still like to see him for a little while no, I mean it's one thing.
Speaker 1:If it's like a superstar changing team every year, that's a bit much yeah, like I mean you can't, you're not going to win at your first year somewhere. Just it's very, very difficult to do well, will's the baseball guy.
Speaker 3:What's going on in baseball right now?
Speaker 2:anything fun early season, so long way, nobody cares yet it's like 40 games in aaron judge, maybe the greatest baseball player to ever walk this planet um he's, he's up there, I mean on pace to break every hitting record known to man. Yeah, I mean Cubs are really good right now. The Braves stink, which is awesome, that's actually wrong.
Speaker 1:They're back to 500. Back to 500. Actually, I don't know if they won tonight, because if they won tonight they break 500. They're above it for the first time, like all year. No, they lost 5-4.
Speaker 3:Cubs good, braves, bad. I don't know if I've heard that a lot.
Speaker 1:I do think, though, the Braves extended their streak they have the most in history of like win-loss by one run in a row. They broke the streak at like seven.
Speaker 2:So they had the one play. Baseball is just so great because there's no pattern At all. There's never a pattern. You can't ever figure out who's going to win, who's going to lose. It's the ultimate game of just chance.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm not gambling on baseball, can't it's?
Speaker 1:impossible. Oh, it's so hard to do it is impossible, so I hard to do it is impossible. So I mean I feel like it's, it's one of those things, if you're, you put a little bit of money on, I'll put such and such is going to win the world series end of the year. I feel like you can. You can do that but I don't think so I think that's the easiest part to do when it comes to baseball I mean, I don't think baseball is easy.
Speaker 2:Two years ago it was diamondbacks, rangers, both wild card teams, right like they.
Speaker 1:I'm not saying it's easy, but I'm saying I think that's the easier bet than this guy's going to have this many.
Speaker 2:Aaron Judge will hit a home run tomorrow.
Speaker 1:I feel like he almost has one a day at this point.
Speaker 2:I'm going to have to go get on the app here. Four total bases. I'll do that. What did you say? There's a couple things you can do. Cody Bellinger, aaron Judge. Eight total bases, okay, and.
Speaker 1:I feel like just about every bet with Aaron Judge, though, everybody's taking right now.
Speaker 3:Probably, so you probably get very little odds.
Speaker 1:I mean, well, because, as amazing as he's playing, it's like, yeah, why wouldn't you, why wouldn't you take those bets right now? I agree Because, yeah, yeah, he's playing fantastic. Um, but as a whole, like your hardcore baseball guys are watching. Yeah, most of your casual fans.
Speaker 3:Not watching till we get we still have what closer to all-star break under games we get 100.
Speaker 1:I mean 120. We're at 40 40. So the Braves tonight played their 43rd game. They were 21-21. So yeah, I mean you're talking 120 games left, like we're fourth of the way. I mean we're a long ways to go, yeah a lot's going to change. So which I know Will even said it like like in that 100 game range probably a pretty good, pretty good change they could make there.
Speaker 3:Yeah yeah, how many games does college play?
Speaker 2:uh, when I was in college, we played 54 game schedules I mean that's a lot for college yeah, that was more than I thought that's a lot of games when game 40 rolled, rolled around. You're just like you feel? It.
Speaker 3:It's time Especially if you're bad, yeah, say if you're on a bad team.
Speaker 2:I was on both bad and really good teams and the year that was really good. I was like I never want this to end. Sure, the year that I was on a team that had two separate eight game losing streaks. And when you get to like game six of that losing streak where you've lost 14 out of your last 15.
Speaker 1:I'd say you're just like you know, I don't want this to be over. It's hard walking into the ballpark every day, then Well, I mean, I think, any sport when you're in that losing streak, it's like I don't want to be here right now.
Speaker 2:That's why I think one of the teams that's I don't want to be here, I know. That's why I think One of the teams that's I don't think Dallas or Denver's gonna win, no, just because all the other guys that are gonna be in it. So it's gonna be Anthony Edwards, sga, tyrese, halliburton and Jalen.
Speaker 1:Brunson.
Speaker 2:They've all lost. It's like that They've already had their loss right, so they've always had the big loss. It's time for them to win it, just like the Detroit Pistons had to lose Correct and then they got to win. It's kind of how it goes in the NBA you have to get your butt handed to you, then you get to win. So I think it's going to be anthony edwards, to be honest with you, I'd be okay with it.
Speaker 1:I'd be okay with it too.
Speaker 2:I think he's next. I think he's gonna be the next big star I think he's already there like I think he's gonna be the face of the the league I don't think he will, because he doesn't want it I think he will I.
Speaker 1:I think it's gonna be one of those that they may try that, but I think it'll just happen he's not the type though that fits well as face of the league. I don't think Kobe wanted to be face of the league, but he was yeah, but Kobe personality wise and the way he can talk to reporters a little bit different.
Speaker 2:Anthony Edwards, like I'm living it up, I'm having a good time, like I mean, I just don't care.
Speaker 1:So a guy like that says a few things, he'll be away from face of the league. I mean, I just think it works. So a guy like that says a few things, he'll be away from face of the league really quick there was this new Netflix doc that came out called Shooting Guards. Yep.
Speaker 2:It was about Gilbert Arenas and the whole fiasco in Washington.
Speaker 1:Gilbert Arenas, it was fantastic.
Speaker 2:It was a really good documentary about that.
Speaker 1:Fantastic. Now he's got some horrible takes on his podcast. Yeah, there's some stuff that I'm like you heard.
Speaker 2:The one that has a really good podcast is Jeff Teague.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Really good he does. I agree with that. Does a really good job.
Speaker 3:Everybody has a podcast anymore. I mean, look at us.
Speaker 2:Drive Ranch. Got one Before you go off be there.
Speaker 1:There you go. That's all I got to say about it. No reason even to stretch it.
Speaker 3:Hit some golf balls, there you go.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you need to hit some golf balls.
Speaker 3:I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1:Man's got plastic on his new clubs. Speaking of new clubs, clubs, who has new clubs coming david? What you're talking about no, somebody has new clubs on the way they do. I saw it I told him he could get him sometime around november we could make some trade somewhere.
Speaker 3:We'll talk after the podcast.
Speaker 1:He's already got something standby for that my presence deserves golf clubs is that what it is? Yeah you have been on a kick today everyone loves me, I'm the greatest.
Speaker 3:And then tomorrow's gonna be like hey, that's a good perspective to have, I guess no, not to the degree it's been today be like hey, that's a good perspective to have.
Speaker 2:I guess no.
Speaker 3:Not to the degree.
Speaker 2:it's been today I don't know why it's been like that today.
Speaker 1:It's been funny, though, because there's been some stuff that's just like completely out of left field. I mean I'm okay with it. I mean we know how wrong it is.
Speaker 2:Humility is on my resume.
Speaker 3:Okay, not tonight, it ain't. Apparently not all day, Gordon Tyler.
Speaker 1:No, it's been. It's definitely been like he's been feeling himself today.
Speaker 3:He's been all over it. I can respect that.
Speaker 1:I'm okay with it. I think you got to have a reason to, though, to though.
Speaker 2:Well, when you just dominate life, what can you say? I mean, I feel the same way hang on.
Speaker 3:Tyler's got two of us in here. He should be like there are, you know, feeling it like we're great.
Speaker 1:I just know neither of you are, so it's a whole lot easier to that's your opinion.
Speaker 3:I don't think I'm the only one, just because you're slacking, and self-confidence doesn't mean we have to be I'm just one of those that I feel like you gotta have something to be confident about.
Speaker 2:I mean, I feel pretty confident about a lot of things in my life, to be honest with you, um should we bring up the ones that you're not?
Speaker 1:No, because it's Okay cool.
Speaker 2:Gotcha, I feel really confident about moving furniture. I feel pretty confident about.
Speaker 1:I'm so glad you don't own a business doing that.
Speaker 2:Hitting golf balls. I feel pretty confident about teaching the youth of America.
Speaker 1:Now, speaking of hitting golf balls. Will's going to play his first round of the year Friday.
Speaker 2:I am, I am, and it's going to be really bad.
Speaker 1:He's already like it's going to be awful.
Speaker 3:It's going to be terrible. I haven't played it this year, have I? I don't think so. No, you haven't. I don't think I've Hit my clubs like twice at the range. So you got invited for Friday. Yeah, we'll see how it goes when are we going, are we getting food?
Speaker 1:That's the question. So there's potential talk-sways still in play. Okay, they're hosting a tournament. Well, you didn't tell me that. I just this was, as of today, Like this was new. Well, so I called our typical go-to over in Hendersonville and I was like, hey, what do you got for Friday morning Sitting there with Will, and he's like we got 7.30. I'm like I ain't happening.
Speaker 1:I was like none of us want to do that that early, not on. You know, like Will, if it's like a random day off which you're off, monday too, it's holiday.
Speaker 3:It's no school Mondayay there's no school.
Speaker 1:Monday, there's no school no, that's the following monday oh, the next monday.
Speaker 2:Yeah, sorry, yeah, I was gonna say sorry. I was about to cry tears of joy.
Speaker 1:Super happy five-day weekend, oh man um, so yeah, I called over there and he's like 7 30. I'm like no, well, they've got that whole big section blocked off, because that's Friday morning is what their groups are playing now.
Speaker 3:So then it's like 1230 and I'm like well, none of us have time for that so not going there no, I'd prefer to play the afternoon, but we've got a softball game that evening.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, I gotta go get my kid from school, will's gotta be at a baseball baseball game that afternoon, so nobody has time to go play lunch right after lunchtime around. Just tough. But that got us looking into all of our local courses, holy crap. The pricing has gotten outrageous. I mean, the one just up the road from us is $75. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 2:That's ridiculous $75. The one that you go this way.
Speaker 1:That's just over the mountain go into the gated community $85. Now it's a lot nicer.
Speaker 2:So much, nicer.
Speaker 1:Than the $75, but still we saw one today for $150. Yeah, one, you've played quite a bit. You have a buddy that's over there. It's $150. You've got another one up the mountain here, $130. And I'm like what are we doing?
Speaker 3:You have to really like golf to play that.
Speaker 1:I don't even think at that point you should really like it, because you can really like it and you can't afford that.
Speaker 2:Right exactly, I might, as at that point, just really like it because you can really like it and you can't afford that. Right exactly, might as well, just come out here and play.
Speaker 1:That's very true.
Speaker 3:Will just got really loud.
Speaker 1:He did. It's the first time. He's been loud the whole time, so I had to pull something out on him.
Speaker 2:Is it because I'm close to the microphone? Get it out of your mouth, good Lord, it's past his bedtime.
Speaker 1:You show up late. You're trying to leave early.
Speaker 2:Two hours past my bedtime.
Speaker 1:Really, you go to bed at 10?
Speaker 2:Sometimes earlier.
Speaker 1:And you call us the old men Right.
Speaker 3:Do you eat dinner at 4? He did today. I did today.
Speaker 1:I walked in and I was like man, this is our early bird special. It was like 4.30. I walked in there to eat.
Speaker 3:Listen, if I eat dinner at 4, I'm still eating like twice.
Speaker 2:I'm starting to get hungry. My stomach is grumbling.
Speaker 1:I noticed I was starting to get hungry.
Speaker 3:Here lately I've been watching. Sunfield about 1 o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 2:I don't know how you guys do that. How do you guys stay, not feel so terrible throughout?
Speaker 1:your day. No, yesterday David was texting me and I fell asleep and didn't even know it. Wait what.
Speaker 3:He fell asleep and didn't know it.
Speaker 1:I mean, I didn't realize that.
Speaker 3:I was not in bed.
Speaker 1:I just kind of fell asleep. I was sitting in the chair working on stuff and then was out.
Speaker 3:All right, well, this talking is getting to my throat again. Oh my gosh, I'm over here hacking you. All right, well, this talking is getting to my throat again. Oh my gosh, I'm over here hacking.
Speaker 1:You've hacked up. I don't know how you have lungs left to hack up. I don't either.
Speaker 2:It's allergies. My allergies are really bad right now. Yeah, it's killing me, yeah, but it's that time of year though, yeah.
Speaker 1:It's like this always feels, like it's the worst, like car is always yellow, like there's nothing you can do about it yep, that's it I do know. So nice today to not have rain for like the first time.
Speaker 2:No, I mowed grass today and I was like why do I look around and that's what I'm doing tomorrow I shouldn't have today I'm gonna work on it, on it tomorrow, because there's no way to do it today.
Speaker 1:It's so wet today.
Speaker 2:I really shouldn't have mowed today. It was too wet too, but I couldn't handle looking at it anymore.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean I hate what I'm looking at right here, but I mean today, even this afternoon, walking through and water is just flying. There's no way I can get out here on this right now. So yeah, over the the next next little bit it's gonna be a lot of a lot of seat time in a mower. So I do know, though, because you're taking that mower to mow yours, go ride that thing and then hop on the other one.
Speaker 3:I haven't been on the new mower yet I'll figure out your help for a change of pace.
Speaker 1:Try it out a little bit. It's uh, there's still a couple times like kind of make a turn and you know, just get used to the old one. You just hammer it forward. It doesn't go anywhere. I throw you off of it, this thing. Like you're. Like, are you wearing?
Speaker 3:your seatbelt.
Speaker 1:Um, I don't really wear it, oh okay, no, I mean it's not like that, like, yeah, you know, I mean it's still a mower, it's got like 36 horsepower, it's nothing crazy, but I mean it's fast for a mower. I'll say that, though I mean you can get some mowing done which is great because I've got plenty to do. That's what I told Will. I was like I'm going to get on a mower Monday and I might get off Thursday. That's just kind of how next week's going to go.
Speaker 3:Trying to watch a hockey game Still 0-0. I know.
Speaker 1:What are you? Second or third?
Speaker 3:Third Only five minutes left, still 0-0.
Speaker 1:I do know that we're going to have to get a couple of signs made. Okay, One that says please put water in the washer before you use it.
Speaker 3:Listen, I came out here. There's a guy with his basket of balls washing them in the uh, the club washer and I was like what are you doing? He's like these balls came out dirty.
Speaker 2:I didn't know what happened I don't have the mental capacity for this right.
Speaker 1:He had no clue like nobody had had any clue. I got here and was looking at it. I was like I thought something exploded. It was rough, it was so weird. Then I saw a guy out here with balls in his basket and it was like they looked that way. It wasn't like you just had. You get some every now and then. They've got like a little bit of dirt on it, like just looks weird. This is like a perfect even coating around the entire thing, and I was like I don't know what that is so basically, if you came here and you got dirty balls out of the machine, I mean, you could have at least like you could have said that so
Speaker 3:much easier than he couldn't even get it out I mean oh man like that's, that's, uh, no because I knew how immature this group is, I was like I know where this is going and I purposely had to say it that way.
Speaker 1:like you know, if it gets late and you start saying that, of course we're going to laugh because we're guys and we never age past 12 in our minds. I tried to stop myself because I knew somebody was going to laugh. It was too late.
Speaker 2:I was like dang it, it was too late, Anyways it's Will's fault, so blame Will.
Speaker 1:That's fine, will take care of it. So I I called will and I was like, hey, man, I appreciate you doing that. Did you know there was no water in there? And he was like what do you mean? He's washing the golf balls with no water. I mean again, that was the what second time you've ever used that one, and the first time it was already set up to be fair.
Speaker 3:We have a new one, so it's a little different. I have a new, new golf ball washer.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think you used it once and that was the fitting day. Yeah, you washed.
Speaker 2:I've used it a lot more than just once.
Speaker 1:Okay, I was trying to give you a bit of a doubt.
Speaker 2:I would say I've used it probably seven or eight times.
Speaker 3:Have you ever had to fill it up with water, though? No.
Speaker 1:It's always had water in it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, that's a little different Still Will's fault, but it's a little more different. It does make some weird noises now, does it? No, I'm just kidding, no. So the other day it started knocking and I'm like I know what rod knock sounds like. But this thing shouldn't have rod knock. That's not how this thing works. And so just inside of it there's a section that actually like moves to kind of help push balls from getting stuck, and every now and then, if too many get in there, like it'll kind of slip over. Well, ball fell next to that, so it was sitting and moving that thing extra. So it's just this metal like clapping on each other, and I'm like holy crap, it's broken. Like we just spent a ton of money on this thing and it's, it's already broke.
Speaker 3:I feel like I'm watching a chess match. Will keeps looking at his phone and tyler keeps talking about other stuff and I know he's like are you doing. He's tired. I'm gonna go to bed and tyler's like oh, I mean I got plenty of stuff.
Speaker 1:I can keep going like I could.
Speaker 2:I could pull up a great this is how it would be when we were playing Call of Duty in the winter.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh, and we'd be like just one more game. I'd be like no. So the thing is, though, we could tell you were gone five games ago. Oh yeah, you quit talking.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you would just disappear, nothing mattered.
Speaker 1:Well, it was kind of like Ron that day I would stop getting mad. No, literally think he fell asleep. No, like we swear, he fell asleep on the mic. His guy was still in.
Speaker 3:His guy was with us he was staying he wasn't moving.
Speaker 1:There was no speech no, he eventually timed out like it was like. No, he definitely just fell asleep 100 fell asleep and I don't know how, because, like we're, giving him a hard time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's all kinds of craziness we gotta start planning it when we're gonna do that? Are we ever gonna do that? Are we ever going to do it again, or is that just like a one-time?
Speaker 1:thing. No, I mean, it'll probably be when it gets cold again.
Speaker 2:Yeah, probably you're right. I mean it's just yeah. No, I bet we all have more time late because it's dark at 5. Because that was some fun nights that it was fun.
Speaker 1:It was a blast, well, but the thing is now like we'll have late nights, but it's gonna be out here, exactly like. I mean, we did that last.
Speaker 3:We've heck, we've done it our late nights now are on the podcast true no, I mean we'll.
Speaker 1:We'll have some late nights doing this stuff too, because I hope just hitting golf balls till like 2 am oh, that'll happen I hope you won't make it.
Speaker 2:I will say with something like that he might, because, if you, remember if time Don't you remember we were in there until like 2 am.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we were playing Orchard Trace on the simulator until like 2 am.
Speaker 2:I was using a hybrid and I couldn't get it 100 yards. We're going to have to tell you ahead of time I thought about that the other day and it was like you're hitting your ahead so he can sleep to like noon that day.
Speaker 1:No, that's how we but that's how we got him to stay up for call of duty. Several of those nights was like, hey, you don't have to work tomorrow. Yeah, like you gotta stay up yeah, we would tell you like four days in advance like we know the kids are out. Yeah, it's like you get to stay up, so stay up and he would.
Speaker 3:He'd be good till like 11 he would give an extra hour If we have food. He'll stay here all night.
Speaker 2:Because I'm poor. That was a poor joke.
Speaker 3:That was not a poor joke. That was really just more of like you like food.
Speaker 1:Like everybody likes food. Yeah, it's true. Yeah, I mean, if I text you like, hey, will, pizza's ton of it.
