Right. It's an opossum, but Americans call him the wrong name. Are you the type of person to scoot out an event early to beat traffic? Not typically. Josh is not the ranch guzzler.

That's right. Even though No. I am not. But I think maybe chicken and turkey are not the same animal. Facts.

Good morning. How are you? I'm tired today. Yeah. And It's snowing.

It's snowing. Yeah. No. That I I walked out the house, and I went, ah, it's not it. But And it's like a wet rainy snow.

For I mean, the first time it snowed is in November 12th. I can't complain too much, but I still am going to. Right. Okay. Well, it's it's not supposed to, you know, really, really stick from what I understand.

Okay. I mean, I could be making that up. It's kind of a rainy, snowy thing, today. I'm trying to see if there's any kind of, like, accumulation. Not really.

Tomorrow, though, it's supposed to be, like, 50. 50 on Thursday, 50 on Friday. I see. Like, it's it's not gonna stick around right now. Good.

So, anyway, it's chicken soup for the soul day. Oh, no. Chicken soup for the soul. Chicken soup for the soul. How many of those books did they make?

Enough. They're still making them. I think we looked at. Those. Yeah.

I loved them when I was younger in high school. Oh, man. That really warmed my heart. Well and that's the whole thing. Right?

It's these heartwarming stories to make you laugh or cry or appreciate the little things in life. Sometimes all 3. Yeah. Sometimes. It's fancy rat and mouse day.

What? Yep. What's the point of that? Or what does that mean? I think it's the idea that you could have rats and mice as pets.

Those are fancy fancy rice fancy rats and mice. It's pneumonia day, world pneumonia day. Oh. So everybody don't get it. It's national French dip day.

Our one of our son's favorite sandwiches. I like a good French dip. Do you? Yeah. K.

Odd socks day. Wear mismatched socks. Hey. Remember when the kids were doing that for a while? Not our kids, but, like, the kids, the youth were wearing, mismatched mismatched socks.

I knew a whole family that just threw all their lingerie in a pile and just grabbed 2 socks. That's that's chaotic. I me too. That life is too chaotic for me. Can't.

I can't. There's a lot of chaos in my life, but that is not one of the chaoses I embrace. Yeah. Recognizing survivors of of abuse, allies, and those who speak out against injustice, it is National Survivor's Day. That's very big.

It's National Pizza with the Works except anchovies. So you can have everything except the fish heads. Have you ever had pizza with the anchovies? No. That always was a joke.

Like, every TV show, every cartoon, it was like, hold the anchovies. Yeah. Like, they were offering them. Like, they just had a jar of fish in the back. They're like, he wants those, doesn't he?

But I've never had it with the anchovies. I don't think that's a good idea. But that's what's going on today. K. Happy what is what day is it?

Tuesday. Oh, okay. Good morning. Okay. So there's an 18 month old bloodhound police dog in Gastonia, North Carolina.

Bloodhound dog. That's right. Who recently won the prestigious American humane Hero Dog Award. Yeah. Working alongside sergeant David Rowland, Beau is the name of the bloodhound, and his incredible nose, has helped the Gastonia Police Department find missing people, track down suspects, make incredible impact in just over a year on the force, which is pretty amazing.

One of Beau's amazing accomplishments was finding a 7 year old boy who had been kidnapped at knife doors. Way. Yeah. Beau. Yeah.

Beau is a true hero Yeah. And we are incredibly proud of him, says the police department chief Trent Conard. Beau will be properly praised for being the good dog he is, the 14th annual American Humane Hero Dog Awards and Gala that's happening in Palm Beach, Florida in January. That sounds like a party. I hope Beau knows that he is the bestest boy.

I think Beau knows. That's a old Yes. It is. It's the nineties, Chantel. Yeah.

There you go. Beau, the good boy, is gonna get his award, which I think is cool. And don't you think going to Palm Beach, Florida in January to go to the 14th annual American Humane Hero Dog Awards in gala sounds like a good party? Like a partiest of parties. Yeah.

I'll go to Palm Beach. Palm Beach, Florida in January? Palm Springs, but I think that's in California. I'll go either one. Palm Springs, Palm Beach in January.

Yes. I know. Sign me up. Yeah. Go into tropical area, warm.

Yeah. Congratulations to that dog. Yeah. Both doing those good things. Yep.

It's good news to get you going. You like to cook? I do. You like to cook on a skillet? Yeah.

I haven't cooked on a skillet in a in a hot minute. Today is national pizza with the works except anchovies day. That's right, which is a weird thing. Might I suggest you make this upside down pizza? What is it?

It's upside down pizza. In a skillet? Mhmm. So I start with some toppings, and then I get some cheese, and then I get some sauce, and then I put the crust on top. You got it.

How's the crust gonna cook? You bake it for 400 For 400 days? No. For 40 minutes at 400 degrees. Okay.

And then you'll need a cutting board to flip it over. So you'll sense. You know? Yeah. Smush them together.

It sounds pretty good. It looks pretty good. I was watching this man make this in a video. It looks pretty okay. Now here's the thing about your skillet.

You gotta have a good seasoned skillet to pull this off because if you don't, your cheese is is gonna stick and burn to your skillet. So Well, you're not putting this cheese on the bottom. You said toppings, cheese, sauce, crust. You're putting, like you're filling the bottom with your meats, and then you're putting the cheese and sauce over your meats. But the cheese But the cheese isn't gonna stick to the bottom of your pan.

Sure it is. That's how gravity works. Cheese is gonna melt down, and it's gonna be Not if you have a lot of toppings Come on. Underneath it. It's gonna hit the pan.

Okay. Continue with your seasonings. Yeah. So you I'm doing my, my toppings, and then I'm doing my layers of cheese, and then I'm doing my sauce. Okay.

And then I'm laying my crust on top. Is that right? Yeah. Correct. And my crust is like a dough, like a like a pizza dough.

Mhmm. Okay. And maybe I do, like, a garlic butter thing on top. Oh, you could do that. This guy just used olive oil and just brushed over the top with olive oil.

Opportunity. But yeah. Because I would do the oils and and maybe, you know, a little bit of, garlic, salt, maybe maybe even roast some garlic. Oh. See, I know how you get know the way to my heart.

I know. Roasted garlic. Yeah. Oi. Yeah.

You could you could put some basil and oregano. Right. Oh, and I know. You know? And then, yeah, cutting board and then flip it 400 degrees for 40 minutes.

Flip it when I get it out. Yeah. And then, hopefully, it didn't all stick to my skillet. It's not gonna stick to your skillet. You know why?

Because I have a well seasoned skillet. That's why. I think this looks pretty good, and I know that you are always excited to try new recipes. I'm not gonna try it, but you could absolutely try this. You mean, try you will eat it.

You don't wanna try to cook. No. I'm not gonna cook it. That's what I'm you could pull it off. It's pretty easy.

No. I'm not. I don't cook. Yeah. You do.

I do. I just don't enjoy it. I see. I think I could make that. I think I could pull that off.

That sounds like a easy kinda meal. When do you think you wanna make it? Oh, I don't know. Sometime. A national pizza with the works except anchovies today.

Want it tonight? Well, we have other we have we have another meal scheduled for tonight. There you go. But one of these nights, I could make that. I hate here's what I hate.

I hate meal planning. I hate it. But I like it because it's con like, it's easy. Right? Like, you have your meals good to go.

I hate deciding on what to plan for the meal plan. But then I'm like, okay. We're gonna do chicken this night, and then, you know We have, like, a salmon thing. We've got all kinds of things. Yeah.

But then when the night hits and I go, oh, that's on the menu for tonight? And I'm like, any of these options. Then you're like, do you have to miss that upside down pizza instead? Yeah. I see.

Well, you know, we're also trying to eat healthy, so there's that. The meal plan does hopefully help with that. It doesn't. It doesn't help with that? Okay.

Alright. Well, I'll try and make upside down pizza one of these nights. Well, is your is your skillet perfectly seasoned? It it is. It's just perfectly in the trailer.

Oh, no. So I'm gonna have to go get it. Oh, crud. Yeah. They did not take it out of the trailer that is in storage.

So I'm gonna have to go into storage to get the skillet to make it have a you don't have a camping skillet and a home skillet? No. We have one in each place. Home skillet. What's up, home skillet?

Come on. Do you like to dress up for holidays for Thanksgiving or Christmas? Do you mean, like, get dressed up? Like like, dress nicely? Yes.

I think that I think so. Yeah. I don't know why. It feels like like more than just a regular dinner. So maybe it's like, you know, wear some nice new sweater or something like that.

I'm not, like, in a tuxedo. Who dresses in a tuxedo for Thanksgiving? That's weird. Well, I'm just that's my dress up, though. It's like, I don't, like, come dressed in costume as a turkey.

That's a different kind of dressing up. You should. Gobble gobble. One of those inflatable ones. There have been years that I have dressed up in years that I've been like, no.

Just wear your sweatpants. Yeah. It's just a fancy dinner. If you wear your sweatpants, you can eat more. You see?

Not really. You can. No. They're strict. You'll just be more comfortable eating what you want.

You're you're excusing away the behavior of eating as much food as you want. Yeah. You're allowed to on thanks It's so arguing at all. So one day, you're supposed to eat a lot of food. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. I was true. I was reading something where, a a husband really liked to dress up, but the wife was like, what's the point? Yeah.

And so he would he would find sneaky ways to get her to dress up. So he would say, oh, I bought you a new sweater. I was thinking you could wear it on Thanksgiving. That's not sneaky at all. That guy's not a good sneaky guy.

I was trying to figure out how I would get you to sneakily dress up. Like, what would I do? What could you do? Not just I bought you this. I'd like to see you wear it on the 4th Thursday in November.

What's a sneaky weight? I don't know. What's your methods? I was trying to think, and then that guy just derailed me with his lack of sneak. He's not a good sneak.

I think it was less about sneaky behavior and more about feeling guilty that he bought her something nice. Oh, so he guilted her. That's a guilt, not sneaky. No. That's terrible.

Hey. It'd be really great if you wore that thing I bought you. Remember that thing I spent money on? Yeah. I would sure hate to see it go to waste.

Yeah. I'd like to see that. Maybe you could wear that Thursday Maybe to dinner. Spill some gravy on it. Oh, rude.

Don't spill gravy on it? Why? Because you're gonna ruin a gift. Well, that's what's gonna happen if you wear your nice gift to Thanksgiving dinner, isn't it? No.

Because Don't wear your nice clothes. Yourself if you don't spill gravy. Gravy boats around. Don't wear nice clothes when there's gravy boats around. Yeah.

You heard it here. Passion advice from Chantel. Thank you. Don't wear fancy clothes when gravy boats are around. Yeah.

You just never know. It's just that's just asking for danger. You're you're right. I would like to dress up for Thanksgiving, but Okay. I don't know that it you know, it's just a thing.

I don't know why. It's just it kind of is a fancier dinner. Right? Like, it and it's It's not really. It takes It's just a nice dinner.

Hours to make. It takes It takes so long to make. To eat. And 3 hours to clean up. And yeah.

Sometimes days to clean up because you gotta soak some pans. You might as well look fancy while you're going through all that. And then halfway through, change into your yoga pants because you can't be comfortable Right. In your tight outfit. Yeah.

Too many gravy boats. Just wear your your yoga pants then and just be comfortable. What about yoga pants and a nice new sweater? Wow. Fancy.

Yeah. Getting dressed up to gobble gobble. I was with the kids. We were at the grocery store the other day, and the kids go, I can't remember. I think I was looking for new sponges.

So I'm looking at sponges. That's a fun trip. My best life, which is shipping for sponges. K. And I see I hear the kids go, that's terrible marketing.

Who decided to do that? That is awful. That is terrible. And I go, what are you what are you talking about? What are you guys talking about?

And they said, the mop fluid, the mopping fluid has fruit on it, and it looks like grape juice. Oh, they're talking about Fabuloso. I don't know what brand it is. I gotta look it up. I took a picture of it because I go, it is Fabuloso.

Yeah. Fabuloso looks like fruit punch. Yeah. It does. They have, what even flavor is that?

I don't wanna say it's flavor because it's a I know. Lavender. Yeah. This one is lavender, but it has purple one. Right?

Purple, and it has grapes, and it looks like grape juice. Then they also have Well, they have a pink one. I'm looking at it too. One, and it has fruit again on it. Watermelons?

You would absolutely think that that is juice if you were looking at blue one? Yeah. You're right. And the kids are right. That's not great.

That's not a great idea. No. That's a terrible idea. Does look like then they have, what, 6, 7 different colors. They've got a blue, a yellow, a red, the purple green, a lighter blue, and an orange, and they all look like delicious fruit juice.

Fruit on them? Or flowers or something to that effect. Yeah. They need to put, like Yeah. Do not drink.

There needs to be a giant do not drink on here. Yeah. Because little kids don't know how to read. Read. You're right.

So put dangerous stuff on there. Dangerous. Like, maybe a picture of a little kid going. That little kid. You definitely don't wanna drink this.

It really as long as they keep it in its own aisle, don't put it next to, like, the Welch's. I think you'll probably be okay. Right? Like, don't put the Fabuloso next to And it wasn't in the fountain aisle. It was in the cleaning aisle, but still, guys I know.

That is bad marketing. You're gonna put that under there, and maybe you need to get the do they still make the mister ick poison stickers? Oh, I don't know. Slap that on there if they do. I haven't heard about the poison control stickers in a long time.

I feel like when we were a kid, every day, it was like, poison control. Poison control. Yeah. I'm looking at the green one. Thought there was a poison control problem.

I thought kids were poisoning themselves every day. As much as we talked about poison control. You're gonna end up in quicksand if you just never know. This fabuloso that I'm looking at here, the green one, covered in apples and pears, And it just makes you think immediately, like, yeah. That's just a good juice.

Put it in the fridge. Man. Cool it down. Okay. Somebody said remove the label and write on it with a black marker.

Like, get rid of the label and put mop. I don't know. That's that's not a great idea. Not a great marketing idea, Fabuloso. At least our kids spotted it.

Now I I was like, good job, kids. Yeah. The But our kids are Old. They better be able to tell the difference between moth fluid and job, kids. Yeah.

Yeah. Can you say Gross? Yeah. What? Can you say poison?

Yeah. Good job. Okay. I saw this picture the other day, and I was floored. I was amazed.

And I showed you the picture, and you were like, oh, yeah. Yeah. I've seen that. So before alarm clocks were invented, people used to take the candle Yes. And they put nails.

And they would put nails in them, and they knew how to calculate the burning time and place the nail in the right position. So when the candle melted, the nail would fall, make a noise, and wake up the sleeper. It was important, though, that, it isn't just a candle sitting there by itself on a stick. Like, it has a metal tray underneath. Yes.

So when the nail would fall, it would clang. Even still, I feel like a nail clanging on a tiny little metal candle holder is not gonna make enough noise. I mean, probably back in the day, it did, but we should try this sometime and see if this is gonna be enough to wake us up. Okay. But here's the other part.

It's the other part. When they were doing this, think about what the noise pollution level was. Good point. It was there was nothing. Quiet.

It was very quiet. Like, you you could hear a pin drop because it was so quiet. Because it was so quiet. You know what I'm saying? I guess, yeah, you're true.

I know I'm true. You're right. If you had a a little cottage with some land and and you weren't in a city, And maybe you could still use them if you were in a downtown area, but I imagine you weren't. You were probably outside of town, and you had your little family cottage. And, you had some horses and, you know, and a stable.

And there there weren't cars. Yeah. So you didn't have engines. You didn't have people fascinating. Working after dark all the time.

Everybody worked around when the sun was up. So, yeah, it was probably real quiet. It probably was. And so when that nail drops, you're like, oh. You didn't have radio.

Time to wake up. That was a noise, and you'd go, oh, a clatter. Oh, yeah. A nail hath fallen upon a metal sheet. Time for me to arise.

And then and then my long nightgaps. The worst part was if the nail fell before the rooster because then you were just because then you were like, yeah. Oh, great. Oh, great. I'm up before the rooster.

Right. They wouldn't need a nail if they had a rooster, probably. Well, roosters sometimes are just wild. Are they? Yeah.

You know a lot of roosters? Well, I know that I've been around roosters in the middle of the day where they're going, I'm like, you're way late, bud. It's noon. Come on. Get it together.

You're 4 hours behind schedule. I think we should try this and see, if I can hear it. Like you will not hear it for sure. Am I actually asleep, or am I I will be the one that wakes you up. I am the I am your alarm clock to be sure.

Sounds safe to have a candle just burning while no one's watching it. It's on a metal tin. It's on a metal plate. Falls over onto your wooden floor and burns down your whole You're gonna have a big metal plate. It's not gonna fall over.

Why is it gonna fall over? Earthquake? Oh, get out of here. Cling, cling, cling. Stampede.

Oh, it's time to arise. Cling. Yeah. Just one nail. Clink.

Oh. You go, oh. I'm up. Ready to start the day. We can go to the wash basin and Oh, I'm so glad.

Pour water on the face. Oh my. Oh my. Yeah. Clank.

Oh, time to get up. Yuck. Hey. Here's a quick story. You weren't feeling well yesterday.

True story. And then you we decided you made an appointment with the doctor, but you couldn't get into the doctor until Wednesday. But Also true story. You were you were also just a little bit worried about it, and you wanted to go see somebody sooner. So we went to ReadyCare last night.

Yep. And as we're sitting in ReadyCare, the doctor comes in, and she asks what your symptoms are. Sure. Blah. And then she says, let me do just a little bit of, research.

Just a check. Just a let let me look in your ears. Let me look in your throat. Your ears. She checks your eyes.

Yep. Looks in your throat. And she says, let me see the back of your throat. Stick your tongue out. Go, ah.

And I go, ah. She goes, no. I I really wanna see it. Like, I really let's see that back of the eye throat. Alright.

So let's rewind. 40 some odd years ago, a little baby Josh Tielor was born. And, this little baby Josh Tielor, was tongue tied. The the tip of this little baby, this little baby's tongue is attached to the bottom of his mouth. So years years years go by, 40 some odd of them, until, last night when he's sitting in the office with the doctor going, stick out your tongue.

And you go, I've never been able to do that. So I'm doing my best here. I'm giving it my best shot. My favorite part was that she she acted like you were a little kid, and she's like, no. Really?

I wanna see the back of your tongue. Let's go, big a. I know. Stick that tongue all the way out, buddy. But I I'm doing my best.

So that happened. I'll be okay. We has that ever happened to the doctor before? You know I would think that would be the best time. Well, when they do the popsicle stick thing to push it down Oh, yeah.

That wasn't ever an issue because they're like, I'll just move it out of the way to see what I need to see. I had strep throat a lot as a kid Did you? Way too often. And so, like, it was a seasonal thing to come around. Okay.

And so I was getting my throat looked at often enough that it probably I would probably remember that coming up. So you do something in the office once. That was neat. You did? Just standing there.

Yeah. When I was a kid, we were checking out, and, and and, you know, we'd finish doing the strep throat cultures and all that fun stuff. Because you used to have to go to a lab that was in the pediatrician, and they do a whole petri dish thing. You had to sit there and wait. Yep.

And now it's, like, way faster, but you had to sit there and, like it was a whole thing. Yeah. It was. Like a scientist in the basement of the pediatrician who was like, yeah. Let me, let me culture that bacteria real quick.

Molecules. Yeah. And, anyway, we'd finished up, and we were checking out. And I just standing there, just fell straight back. Why?

I passed out. But why? I don't know. For fun. I don't know why.

It was cool. It's a cool thing to do. You you also got your blood drawn last night. Yeah. Now my I got a little pain in my arm right there at the No.

I don't like it. I was worried that you were gonna pass out when he was Yeah. Taking your blood because you've done that before. Yeah. But not for, like, 20 years.

It's been a long time since I've passed out. When he did say, okay. You're all done. I'm glad you didn't pass out. I'm like, he's been known to do that before.

Yeah. That's freaking people out. Me. Yeah. Yeah.

We coulda had him lay down. Like, I'm fine. You are you were fine. I didn't wanna jinx it, so I didn't say anything. I know.

It's it's been 20 years since that happened. It'll be fine. Maybe one day it'll happen again. Do you want it to happen again? No.

It's not that fun. Good news is Josh is fine. Yeah. He's gonna live to see another day. So far, anyway.

But they still haven't fixed your tongue tidiness. Could you imagine if I got that thing cut now No. You'd have to. Years, my tongue would be a maniac. I wouldn't yeah.

I wouldn't know how to eat. I don't know. You'd figure it out. I'm okay. I'll just stay the way I am.

Okay. Somebody in Florida saw a possum spinning around in circles for hours. Is that that's not normal behavior. It's not normal behavior. Spinning a circle probably is like, oh, well, that guy's doing tricks.

But then if he was doing it for hours, that's a problem. Did he have something tied to him? Was he trying to get something So tangled? The man that saw him said, I think something's wrong. He called Wildlife Rescue.

Wildlife Rescue came in, took him in, realized he had a really bad ear infection, which was basically giving him vertigo. Yeah. So they gave him antibiotics. He's doing much better. They're planning to release him back in the wild soon.

Well, that's good. Poor animals. I know. Like, can you imagine if nobody stepped in? He would've just been spinning spinning, spinning around.

Not knowing what's going on, feeling all dizzy and then spinning and then being dizzy because he's spinning. What a terrible thing. You showed me a video the other day of a deer that flagged down a car. It was kinda standing in the middle of the road. Yeah.

It it kinda was like, hey. I need help, and it took, humans to where its fawn was tangled in a fence. And then they went and got tools, and they freed the fawn. And, and it ran off with its mom into the woods. But then, like, the next day came up with the fawn and was like, thank you.

Thank you so much. Like, let them pet them. It was a whole thing. Yeah. Aw.

I like those stories. I like when humans help animals and vice versa. Okay. Other question. Do you know the difference between a possum and an opossum?

The o. Yeah. But what else? Are they not? Is is an opossum not just a possum?

They are they're different. They are? They are often used interchangeably, but, yes, they are different. K. But are they not both marsupials?

Like, they're they're very much the same animal. Yeah. But they're also different. Why? Well, for 1, possums live in wooded areas, and all possums prefer bushy habitats like rainforests.

For 2 Oh, here's the big deal. What's the big deal? The big deal is that possums don't exist in America. Possums don't? No.

They're native just told you a story about a possum. No. You didn't. You told me a story about an opossum because opossums are native to Australia, New Guinea, and Salawesi, while opossums are native to the Americas. The story I read says possum.

Yeah. Somebody didn't do their fact checking before they wrote their article. Are you sure? I just read it. It.

Well, now I can't even read the story because I have a terrible computer, and it froze my computer. In North America, the term possum is used to refer to the Virginia opossum, which is the only marsupial found north of Mexico. Mexico. I was just reading that. Yeah.

That's it. They only So we call him a possum, but it's wrong. What it hey. This thing looks like that other thing, but different. Yeah.

Call it 2 things, but very put a o in front of it. Oh, possum. Yeah. That'll do. Have you ever been at a football game or a concert or, any kind of sporting event or a show or anything and you notice that about maybe there's maybe 20, 15 minutes left of the show or the game and people check it up and start leaving?

I've noticed other people doing that. I haven't done it. No. I said other people. Have you noticed other people doing it?

That's what I said. That's what I asked. He said, okay. Sure. Yeah.

And you know it's because they have to beat traffic. Do they? You see a lot of them, and I assume that's why they're leaving early because they wanna get out of the parking lot. You gotta beat the flow of traffic. Why?

We've never done that because I I've paid money to see I'm gonna see the end of the game. Right. I'm gonna see the on shore of the show. Yeah. I'm gonna do it.

Right. And if that means I have to wait in the parking lot or wait in the venue, okay. If I'm traveling like, if I'm local, like, that's where I'm like, meh. But if I've traveled somewhere, I try to to find a a place to stay near the venue so that it's within, like, walking or or a short distance anyway so that I don't have to deal with that because I would rather I'd rather get done and and take my time walking back than get in a car and then have to drive and be stuck in the thing. We've got a thing coming up.

It's gonna be horrendous. It is gonna be awful. That's okay because we have a friend who said she was gonna she is willing to take us and pick us up. Yeah. I think that's the way to go.

I agree because there's gonna be it's a sold out event, and there's gonna be a ton of people. Sold out? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Big time sold out. How do you know that? They've sold out every single one of them. Oh. Oh.

Oh. More people than not have said that they'd like to leave events early to beat the traffic. Yeah. And I am not in that phase of my life yet. Maybe that'll come more with age, but I paid money.

I get you. See, I'm gonna follow this to the end. You know why? Because I'm not a quitter. Alright.

Now what if you're at a game and the team you're watching that you went to support is really ahead or really far behind, and you're like, this isn't gonna go one way or the other? I'm good to go. Yeah. Probably if they're behind. If they're ahead, I would still I'd stay to the victory.

Yeah. If they're behind, I would stay. Like, drastically. Like, it's 40 something to 12. Then I would probably actually leave.

And it's then there's 10 minutes left. That's 5 minutes left. How how long do you wait? There are 5 minutes left? That's what I'm asking.

Do you leave at 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20? Because let's say it's the final quarter of a football game. That's only 15 minutes of playtime. There's 15 minutes on the clock when that quarter starts. Your team is down 7 to 28.

5 minutes isn't gonna get you that much ahead of traffic. True. So I would probably 10 minutes. And if you miss the window, you stay in the rest of the time? Yeah.

I see. Yep. And you are too because we're in the same car. Oh, I see what has happened. I was bullied by our daughter and her friend last night, and I'm not exactly excited about it.

How did you get bullied? Well, I was I had, finished up my dinner, and, Emery was on a chat, a face chat with her friend and walked into the kitchen, and I was putting away the ranch and my dishes. And Emery said, why why do you have all the ranch? Are we guzzling ranch? And then her and her friend berated me for 10 minutes about how I'm a ranch guzzler, and I don't like that because I wasn't.

I just had some leftover pizza, and I liked a little bit of ranch to dip it in. I wasn't drinking the ranch. So Wait. Wait. You guzzling the ranch?

I wasn't guzzling the ranch. See? It's the thing I'm trying to explain. I was putting it away in the fridge where it lives, and I was getting called out for something that wasn't true. I don't appreciate that.

Well, did you, say something to them? Or I said, yeah. I had it with my pizza. I wasn't drinking it. Not a crazy person.

Teenagers are the They're so rude. They're so mean. They can be so mean. And they just wouldn't they wouldn't give it up. I I guarantee if I pick them up from school, they're gonna go, hey.

What's up, ranch? Goes Yo. They will. What? Why did I become that guy?

Because I was putting away the ranch. That's why. Now I'm the guy who drinks ranch. Not just drinks guzzler. Yeah.

You're the ranch guzzler. That's so rude. It's just so rude. I don't even know what to do with that. I'll tell you what to do.

You pick yourself up. Oh, absolutely. You dust yourself off Yeah. And you just let it go. I don't know.

He's 15 year olds these days. I know. They are mean. They are so mean. My name's gonna get written down in a book.

It's a whole thing. I go to he goes to ranch. This guy goes to ranch. Yeah. Yeah.

Great. Super. Now to be fair, you have often teased both our daughter and her friend. No. Yes.

No. So I what goes around pops around me. One of those. I don't think you're an innocent bystander, but it is literally just walking to the fridge I get it. And I got called out But there was what was in my hand.

There was one day you picked up Emery and her friend from school, and her friend had gotten a soda. Yeah. And she said she didn't have to pay for it because somebody had left their car Right. Inside the vending machine. So ever since then and that was months months months months ago.

And she's made good on it. And but I said, hey. What's up, thief? Yeah. Every time you pick her up.

So maybe, just maybe Okay. The odds are not in your favor. That's fair. I don't think you're an innocent party, ranch guzzler. I'm not the ranch guzzler.

This is a BuzzFeed story about stupid questions asked by customers. Okay. There's a man who was a butcher for 20 years. An older gentleman came to the window and asked with a straight face, at what weight does a chicken become a turkey? Those are 2 different animals, my my guy.

Chicken and turkey are not the same. The butcher looked at him for a few seconds waiting for him to break character and and laugh and be like, I'm just a kid and man. He was serious. He didn't break, and so he said, oh, when do you think a pig becomes a cow? There you go.

At what weight does pork become beef? Here's another one. Camping in the Smoky Mountains, the family asked the park ranger, when do they corral the elk? Uh-huh. Can the kids ride them?

Nope. You know that there are people in West Yellowstone that get asked these kinds of questions, And then they tell you, you know what would be great is if you go back into the town of West Yellowstone and go to the Wolf and Grizzly Discovery Center, and you can see them up close. Have you, any of your jobs been asked stupid questions? I'm trying to think. I've been doing radio for so long that I'm trying to think of what are some of the questions.

I've there's, I think, an assumption that, like, I work 4 hours a day, and then I And then you got it? Just go home, which wouldn't that be nice? That would be nice. 4 hours We should all do that. A day.

4 times 5 is 20 hours a week. Let's make that full time. Make 20 hours a week full time. I agree. Put it in the books.

Yeah. I don't know who we have to talk to, but it isn't me. No. No. I don't control any laws.

Oh, no. But that's a good one. 20 hour week, full week. 4 hours a day? I'm telling you, I could be real productive.

Oh, yeah. You could get so much done in 4 hours. You know how I've been fighting for a 4 day work week. Yeah. Anyway, you make my work week 20 hours.

I won't need 4 days. I'll work off 5 because I'll be out of here at 10. Yeah. Yeah. That sounds amazing.

I know. I'll even give you 5 hours. If I walked up and said, hey. What do you think about, making a 20 hour week a full time job? Like, that counts.

I think I'd make that list of BuzzFeed stupid questions. I think you would. Yep. You're BuzzFeed. Like, mhmm.

Now where's the punchline? Because all you're telling is jokes. You got it. You're a big guy? Big guy?

Yeah. That's what they'll say. Okay. Apparently, some marketing research has found that bald is beautiful. Josh, I've been telling you that my whole life.

Well and and you know how every year, People Magazine does, like, the sexiest man? Uh-huh. So this, this group, has come up with the sexiest bald men of the year. Okay. Yeah.

Who is it? Well, it's kind of, I don't know if it's a ranked list. Oh, it sure is. It sure is, on the list. Vin Diesel, Stanley Tucci, the French soccer coach.

Shaquille O'Neal is number 3. Dwayne The Rock Johnson is number 2. Ah, smart. Number 1 sexiest bald man in the world. I gotta think who else is bald.

Yeah. Who made this list? A marketing research company called Reboot. Prince William. No.

Hey. I also didn't make the list, so I got that going for me. Prince William isn't even he's not even fully bald yet. I mean, he's got he definitely Well, so Danny DeVito wears the wears the side and back? That's true.

Balding, I would say. Prince William is balding, but he's not bald. So he needs to be in a separate category of balding is beautiful. Mhmm. That's a separate that's a separate list.

You're on my list, Josh. Alright. Well, that's cool. I like that. I'm glad to be on your list.

Sad I'm not number 1. You are. No. You didn't say you're on the top of my list. You just said you're on my list.

Let's be clear. I heard what you said. Loud and clear. Let's ask that age old question. They've been asking since the Egyptians built the pyramids.

Would you rather this or that? Would you rather eat Thanksgiving at the kids' table or eat Thanksgiving at the adults' table? Kids for me. I know that you you would take the kids' table. I knew you would.

Table's more fun. Who wants to eat with a bunch of adults? No. Thank you. This year, I'll take the kids' table.

Why? Because? No reason. Listen. If you sit at the kids' table, you're gonna have to deal with, like, endless amounts of questions sometimes.

Not really. Sometimes there's some spillage. How little are the kids? Varying ages? Yeah.

Good. I'm gonna have way better conversation Yeah. You are. At the kids' table. Yeah.

Because kids are awesome. That's It's gonna be more fun. Avoiding the parents' table. I don't wanna go to the adult table. I'll always pick the kids' table.

Always. It's way more fun. If the kids' table could be in another room, that'd be good too. I'll just be completely separate. Matter of fact, can I just have my own table?

Sure. Table for 1. Table. Put trash in the corner. Yeah.

Look at the look at the wall. I'll just how about I'll just, eat outside. In the snow? Well, set me up a shelter Okay. With some heat.

That's fine. Go outside. Out there. With some heat? No.

Rude. You get no heat. You can have some shelter, but no heat. Oh, I gotta be comfortable. No.

No. You chose to be outside. You get no comfort. I choose comfortable outside. You that's not an option.

I choose my own house. How about? Kids' table. Yeah. No.
