Full show transcript:
So, at some point during today's show, we said, hey, let's have you try that Uber Green's drink, and then we kind of forgot to get to it. But we did get to it just after the show, which is when we record the beginning of the show, so you're going to hear about Uber Green's before we talk about Uber Green's later in the show. Just to get your timeline all straightened out. That's how it's going to go from here on out today.
To Uber Green's. Cucumber, celery, grapefruit, chard, lettuce, lemon.
You haven't tried it until now. Just now. We just filmed a video of you trying it for the first time. Yeah. And? It's fine.
It's good for you.
It is healthy. Do you feel like it's healthy? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I felt like it was really good, healthy.
I mean, look. Vitamin A, vitamin K, vitamin C, potassium. Not a significant source of dietary fiber.
And the reason is because you're not eating the vegetables. As we learn, juicing them is different in the fiber breakdown than eating them. But you feel like you ate a bunch, don't you? Oh, yeah. You just took another drink. You're not selling it really well. But that's why I told you. It's not a sipping beverage. Mm-mm. I drink it all in one go.
Yeah, you got to just go all the way down.
I just chug the whole thing. Don't waste it.
I'm not going to waste it. Why are you saying I'm going to waste it?
Well, if you were putting it away, like, I don't want to look at it anymore.
Well, I'm not going to just finish it right now. Okay. Why don't you want me to waste it?
Because they're good. It's good for you. You got to have your vegetables.
I'd rather just eat my vegetables.
When you drank it for the first time, you said you could really taste the chard. It has chard in it. It does have chard. What's chard? Lettuce. Like a lettuce. Can you taste that? Is that the predominant flavor?
I don't know. I don't know.
As you go like this,
what's the flavor you pick up the most? Notes of celery. I think celery is a heavy hand. No way, really? Yeah. I think cucumber is. Ah, cucumber. Good. Okay, I'm going to go for another one and see what I can taste.
All right, here we go.
Yeah. Good drink.
Okay. That time I could taste lemon. It has lemon in it. Yeah. I could taste it. That actually, that drink wasn't as bad. You're getting used to it. I think so.
You're going to start craving it. That's what they say, like people who drink apple cider vinegar, they're like, after a while you start to crave it.
I mean, that's true of anything though, really. Dude, I'm going to go. You can work up a tolerance for just about anything. Sure. Okay, now I'm going to keep on keeping on with this.
Yeah, I told you not to sip it.
Because it's good for me. You just got to chug it. Maybe not right now.
All right, well, we'll get the video posted so you can watch her try it for the first time. It's Uber greens and they're not a sponsor of anything. No, they're not. We just had some at home and I've been drinking them and I think they're good and healthy.
We bought that with our own money. That's right. Will you buy that again?
I have bought it twice now. Oh. Yeah. I'm not mad about it because of the health benefit, but I don't like to taste it. So I drink it all in one drink and then I taste it once. That's my rule. If I'm going to drink something gross, I'm going to taste it one time. This is how many ounces?
10 ounces. Yeah, I drink it in one go.
How can you drink that with your own? I just tip it up and drink it. Savage. Oh, crazy. Hey, here's today's show. What's up? What's up? What's good? What's up?
I don't know. What's happening with you?
I just try to test myself and see how quickly I can make things work all at once. Pretty quick actually. Yeah, you did good. I mean, I felt like I only had a few seconds and I am making things happen within that time frame and I'm pretty stoked about that.
You did good. Yeah. A plus.
Yeah. What's going on? It's Thursday. What do you know?
Rain, cold. Okay. Must have been really windy last night. I slept right through it. Why do you say that? Why do I say that it was really windy? Because our entire front step, did you not look? I guess I didn't notice. Everything was pushed to the side. Like the rug and stuff? The rugs, the planter, all of it. Gone off the step. Gone.
Gone. I didn't notice it was gone.
It's all gone. It's down. It's just on the other side. But it's gone off the step. Step was empty. I see. There are two rugs and a planter. Why the two rug thing? I don't know. I just, I'm asking. I don't know. People are doing it on the internet and it looks cute. All right. And so I did it too. Okay. Because I also want to look cute.
Oh, influenced.
I was influenced by the two rugs. Yes. Got it. Got it. Got it. Well, today we might even get a little bit of that snow.
So we got that to look forward to. Look at my face. And then maybe even a little bit tomorrow. It says little to no accumulation. Okay. But you're still going to see it. I don't want to see it. Okay. Then close your eyes.
I guess. Okay. I guess I will. That sounds fine. Take a nap during the time it snows. Okay.
That sounds nice. I'm into it. And then it's supposed to be okay Saturday. Okay. And then rainy on Sunday and Monday. Yeah. These are those late April showers.
I was going to say you were supposed to be like your agenda is like some yard work. I know. Can't do that in the rain.
I mean, I can. It's going to be way less fun. Don't do it in the rain. But I'm really hoping that things lighten up for me on Saturday. Saturday, mid 50s, few clouds. I can get some stuff done on Saturday. Okay. So that's kind of what I'm looking forward to. Saturday's my day.
You're all by yourself too. Sorry about that. I'll be fine. You don't get your wingman. Not that I do a lot anyway. You do a lot. Thanks, Josh. Thanks. No, thank you. Wingman. What are you? The captain and I'm the skipper?
Something like that.
Whatever you want to be. You're the Gilligan and I'm the skipper. I didn't watch Gilligan's Island. So I don't know those references.
Do you know how long their trip was? Three hours. That's right. A three hour tour. Yeah. Okay. You know more than you thought. Well, just because of the song. And then who all was there?
Ginger and me. And Mary Ann and the skipper and Gilligan and Peaty.
Nope. It does start with a P. I don't know. There's more of his job than his name. The pirate. No. The plumber. No. I don't know. Professor. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. The professor and Mary Ann. Yeah.
Did you watch the show? A few times. I was a Nick at Night House. So we had that and be witch and Mr. Ed and all that Andy Griffith. We had it all. Yeah. I think my parents watched that, but I just was like, no, thank you. Yeah. And I ran away. Yeah. Bye.
Well, hey. Hey. Good morning to you. Good morning to you. All right. Some good news. I'm going to tell you about a Chicago firefighter. His name is Bill Rosales and he is back on the men thanks to a life-saving act of generosity from a long time friend and fellow first responder. Bill was diagnosed with a rare genetic kidney disorder and he'd been quietly struggling for years when he got the shocking phone call from Jason Fugati, who is a firefighter in a nearby community and a friend since high school. And without even telling Bill, Jason had already undergone the rigorous testing process at Loyola Medicine and called simply to say, hey, listen, I got a kidney for you whenever you're ready.
That's what he said. He was, hey, I got a kidney ready. You just let me know. The kindness didn't stop there after the news about Bill and Jason got out over 30 more people stepped forward to help, including another friend who decided to donate his kidney to a total stranger when he wasn't a match for Bill, but he was a match for somebody else. He said, let's go.
Let's just do this. So Jason, who's a father of two, says that his 20-year career as a firefighter made the choice of no brainer. He said that if they're willing to risk lives for strangers, helping a brother who's willing to do that is easy, which is pretty powerful. So both guys are now recovering. Bill's finally able to look forward to a healthy future with his wife and 14-year-old son.
Isn't that cool? That's very cool.
Way to step up, dudes. Yeah. Way to go. Bill, Jason, and the other guy who's going to donate a kidney to a stranger. That's pretty cool. Very nice. That's good news. I was just watching a trailer two seconds ago. This trailer is for not the first Top Gun and not the second Top Gun, but both Top Guns together.
What? Because it is the 40th anniversary of Top Gun and May 13th for one week only. Top Gun and Top Gun Maverick are back in theaters. So you can go watch both of them on the big screen.
So is this something you want to do? I want to do this. Okay, I found out yesterday that they're making a Top Gun 3. What? When? Where? It's in development. Paramount Pictures announced it. They're going to be in charge of it. They're thinking, I don't know when they're expecting it to come out. Tom Cruise is set to return.
Well, of course. You can't do Top Gun without Maverick. And
Jerry Breckheimer is coming back. He's one of the producers. Okay. They haven't confirmed anybody else. They want Miles Teller and
Glenn Powers to come back, but they haven't confirmed this. Yeah, they need Rooster. Let's see. I'm trying to see if they have, they have zero details. Right.
Just that it's in production and that Tom Cruise will return. Yeah. That's exactly what I'm saying. You can't necessarily have Top Gun without Tom Cruise.
So Maverick came out about four years ago, you believe that. And it did real well. It made one and a half billion dollars in the global box office. It cost $170 million to make the movie. So it really made some money. It's pretty good. So yeah, I imagine they're like, yeah, we got to, we got to strike again. That was pretty successful. So, you know, I like the Top Gun movies. I really enjoyed the first one. It's what made me want to be a fighter pilot for a lot of my youth.
I think you and most other little boys and girls.
Yeah. It was a big deal. So I'm excited to be able to see them in theaters. I did not get to see the first Top Gun in theaters. I don't think I did either.
I just didn't. I was a kid. Like the first movie I saw in theaters was Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. American Tale. And then we used to do the summer movie thing. So I'd go to the Rio Theater, which is now Artitorium.
I would go there every week. They had a different movie or whatever. And you had a little stamp you would go in and you'd watch the movie. And then that was a big thing.
I only remember Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. I don't remember all the other movies, but we had a whole calendar with the little tags and you took them in and you went, there you go. I'm going to go check out this movie. So I did that often during the summer, but Top Gun wasn't on that list.
Oh, Top Gun probably wasn't on the kid's summer movie list. Should have been. There's a couple of risque scenes for children.
Like when he turns the airplane upside down, that was risque.
It was risque.
When he does the fly by, when he's told not to.
Disobeying orders. Risque.
Disobey. It's risque.
Well, I'd go see these in the theater with you.
Yeah, that'd be fun. You have to watch them back to back. It doesn't necessarily say that, but it does say that for one week only, Top Gun and Top Gun Maverick will be back in theaters. You can get tickets at TopGunMovie.com. So now I've got to find out if it's going to be in this area.
Right. I'll go with you, but I can't do a double header because guess what? What? I'll fall asleep. Yep. So if there's some kind of break in between them, I'll be fine.
I don't have that information.
The first one is rated PG. So that might have been on your, on your. I should have seen it. Summer list. There is some violence and profanity in it.
It's kind of cool that you get, you get a collector's print that says feel the need again. Oh, and it's got the jet flying through it. It's very cool. Very cool.
All right. Well, it is, it is going to be available in East Idaho. So available from the 13th through the 20th of May. Okay. But it does look like it's a back to back thing. Okay.
I just need to, I'll just need to do some stretching in between and then I'll be good to go.
And it looks like I was going to say there's only one showing, but there's more than one showing on the 13th. There is one showing at 740 PM. That's a Wednesday night.
Oh, I can do, I can do a double header on a school night. What?
Come on. There's a matinee on a Thursday. We can just skate out.
Oh dude. Let's do that. Let's do that. Let's keep out going.
We're going to make a four or five hour break from work. Yeah. 10, 20 in the morning right after the show. That sounds awesome. Sorry, we got to go do show research.
Yeah, sorry. We got an appointment. We have a very important appointment. 10, 20, we got an appointment. Yeah, we got to boogie out.
Yeah. We got a boogity boogity boogity. It's a different movie about going fast. Anyway, I think that's kind of fun. I think so too. Let's go check it out. All right. It's coming up May 13th through the 20th if you're interested.
Topgunmovie.com. Last night I went and got my hair done and I also needed to run a couple of other errands and I was out and about already and I said, I should just go do them super fast. And then I said, but that's no fun. Part of getting married is so that you'll always have somebody to run errands with you. Aw. How sweet is that? I don't like running errands alone.
You don't? No. Because I feel like there are sometimes where you're like, I'm just going to go by myself so I don't have to be distracted.
Well, sometimes. You know what I'm saying? But those are few and far between times. Okay. And so I went home and I said, oh, I got to run a couple of errands. And I put it out there as like a, I hope you say yes. I hope you say yes. You'll come with me. Say yes, say yes. Say yes, say yes. You got it. And you did. And then I was very happy.
Well, and then they took about five minutes.
Yeah, I know, but that's okay. Because one, you drive, so I don't have to drive.
Oh, passenger princess.
Yeah, I don't want, you know, it's not that I don't like to drive. I love to drive, but when it's cold and gross, I'm just like, no, I'm just going to sit over here and be toasty. Turn on my seat warmer and bundle up. I'm not going to think about it. You take me to my destination. Okay.
Thanks. So did. And it was super windy and I just stayed in the car. I just drove you to the places and you went in. Yeah. And it was like super windy.
Yeah, stupid.
The doors were like hard to open and close because of the wind. Yeah.
And then it blew my new hair all over the place. New hair. I got new hair. You did? I do. Do you like to run errands on? Well, and then later you had to go do an errand on your own and you were like, does anyone want to come help me do that? And I said, I will. Yeah.
Which was nice. Because I just had to run and fix some stuff. So you just literally had to like stand around until I finished the project.
Yeah, but again, it's nicer when there's somebody else there.
I mean, I get that for sure, but you had to have been bored by the first like two minutes because you were like, oh, this is neat. And then went, now what?
Because I'll stand here. Yeah, there wasn't anywhere to sit. Right. It's okay. I entertained myself.
I was looking out the window. Well, there you go. Looking at stuff. All right. I wasn't bored. Well, yeah, no, it's definitely more fun to have somebody around than to not. Unless it's a distraction to what you need to get done. But that was not the case here.
So, thanks for being my errand running buddy.
All right. You're welcome. Copilot, pilot, copilot takes two, you know, we just can't eat the same meal.
Right. Because if one of us gets
sick, both of us can't be sick. Somebody's got to fly this plane. And it's got to be one of the two of us. That's funny. All right. Well, no, I guess here's to no running errands alone. Oh, high fives.
We were eating dinner last night and Beck said, Hey, I got dibs on the TV downstairs.
Yeah, I get home. I want the TV downstairs. It's just, that's where the theater's at. You know, it would be funny as if we went, you wanted the one over the fireplace, I thought, which is the smallest of the TVs in the house.
And we could be like, Oh, we were watching a show here. But if you want that one, go nuts. Go ahead.
You wanted the one downstairs. Have at it. That's yours. Yeah. No, it's the, it's first day of the NFL draft. Yeah. He was up last night doing mock drafts. Was he? Yeah, that's a big thing for people that really get into the draft. He does a lot of different mock drafts.
Beck really gets into football. Yep. The Raiders have the number one pick. They are expected to pick Fernando Mendoza. Who's the quarterback?
Correct. And he would be training under Kirk Cousins. That's right. That is correct. Yep.
So they're saying that the draft class this year doesn't have very many elite quarterbacks. And so Fernando Mendoza is kind of the top one to watch when it comes to that. A couple of big names to watch tonight are Vel Reese. Okay. Likely top three. They're saying Francis Magoa. Okay. He is a OT. Okay. What is an OT?
Offensive tackle.
I had to think. I had to think. Jeremiah Love is running back and David Bailey. Those are kind of the top players that you should probably watch for.
And what about the guy from Idaho Falls?
I don't have any information about him.
That is Sadiq, right? Maybe. He was not on your list.
They're saying that this draft this year is not very quarterback heavy, which is pretty unusual for a draft. So you might see running backs and safeties go way earlier than normal.
Interesting. There you go. Yeah. Kenyan Sadiq. He's from Oregon. He played, I want to say at Skyline.
Are you finding that information?
I'm digging, but I'm pretty sure that's right.
Do you think the Raiders will actually go first or are they going to shock everyone? Or do you think they'll pick a quarterback first or do you think they're going to shock everyone and go totally by the wayside?
No, I'm pretty sure they're going to... They need a quarterback. They're going to pick him. They're going to do it.
They have to because they have Kirk Cousins and Kirk Cousins is great, but he's also getting a little long in the tooth.
Whoa. Yes, he did go to Skyline High School.
Did he? Yeah. What's his name? Kenyan Sadiq.
That's a DIQ. So he went to Marsh Valley and he went to Skyline and then he's been playing in Oregon and now he's in the NFL draft. So there is a local boy in the NFL draft.
Okay, Google is saying that he's not expected to be in round one tonight. He's likely a day two or a day three pick and he's a tight end and they don't usually go super high unless they're super elite. But he is seen as like a really, really good player and so he's a top tier tight end prospect they're saying. All right.
Yeah, draft projection says mid to late first round. They're saying. According to what I'm seeing.
Keep an eye on him tomorrow, Guy, not a tonight headline.
But he could be a mid to late first round somewhere around picks 13 to 28. So don't rule him out. I'm not. Watch him go first round tonight.
Hey, you know who could use a new tight end.
You're going to say Kansas City because you don't like Travis Kelsey. But go ahead and tell me. Yeah, that's it. Okay, you guessed. Yeah, no way. NFL draft day one. Welcome to it. Here we go.
Imagine if you will, you're super, super, super thirsty and you're not at your normal house. You're at somebody else's house, but you're super, super thirsty and you grab a cup and you turn on the tap water and you get a cup. Of water, but the water tastes gross. Do you continue to drink it? Or do you stay thirsty?
Go back to the very beginning.
How thirsty am I so, so, so I'll drink it super, super, super.
Okay, I'm just going to do it in one big drink and then I'm going to taste it once. That's kind of my rule. That's your rule for a lot of things. If I don't like it, I'm going to taste it once. I'm not going to sip it. I'm going to taste it multiple times. It's a good rule. You're not wrong about that rule. Vegetable, liquid drink, one drink. Taste it once and go.
I brought some of that today. You haven't tried it. I was hoping to take a drink of it. We can record it.
Okay, good. We'll do that coming up soon then. Okay. I'm excited. You haven't tried it yet. I have not. Oh, it's like licking a garden.
Delicious. Mm-hmm.
Like, you know that bowl that I used to harvest, that little blue one? Uh-huh. If I harvest the garden and then I go inside and I wash the veggies and put them back in there, and then I take them out and you just lick the mole, that's what it tastes like.
So does it have like a hint of dirt?
I'm excited to hear what you think.
Okay, that's coming up later. Okay. We'll do that later. All right. You're thirsty, just thirsty. Yeah, I'm just drinking the water. What's the worst water you've ever had to drink? Do you remember? No. I remember going to Tijuana.
Oh, don't drink the water there.
Yeah, everyone said don't drink the water there. I didn't.
Yeah, because if you go to Tijuana and drink the water, Tijuana comes home with you. Mm-hmm.
In a different form. That's right. And you go, oh no. So no, don't do that.
I'm trying to think of, I've had some bad water. My sister does not like our water and we just use tap water. She
doesn't like anyone's tap water. She's pretty. She's a water bottle snob. She is. Bottled water snob.
But she has every right to be because that is the only thing she drinks. She drinks buckets and buckets of water every day. So she has every right to be a water snob.
Buckets and buckets? I don't think she's ever even had one bucket of water a day. One bucket's five gallons. Buckets and buckets is 10, 15, 20. That's not enough. That's too much water. You can't drink that much water.
I overheard somebody once say their doctor was like, you got to drink more water. And they said, do you have anything else that I can drink? Because I hate the taste of water.
And I went, how can- Water tastes like your mouth. Gross. Yeah. So you don't like the taste of the water. Guess what? Gross. It's your mouth. Gross. Why is this water all hot? I don't care for that. I don't like water that's been sitting out on the counter. Teppid? Yeah, gross.
I don't like that either. How long is it- How long has it been setting out that you'll say, no, I don't want this anymore? Two hours. Two hours?
If I have like, if I put an ice water and I go outside and do some work, and I've been out there for an hour and I come back in and it's sitting there, I'll drink it. But if it's been a couple hours, I'll just dump it out and get new. So two hours. Okay. Sounds about right.
How about warm water? Do you drink warm water? So you're supposed to.
They say that if you drink cold water- I learned that in the emergency room. Yeah. It's a shock to your system if you drink cold water. You're supposed to drink warm water.
I don't mind drinking warm water. Like I have a water bottle here. Yeah. And I fill it up with ice and so it's cold in the morning, but then throughout the day, it's not as Stanley so
might- What do you- is it doing it, going on and on with the ice? Yeah. Because I have ice in there. Hold that closer. Listen to that sound. That's a good noise. Yeah. Your ice is going, going and going and going.
But then throughout the day, it gets warm. And I don't mind. Not warm, like hot, just not as cold. Teppin. Teppin is a good word, you know? Sometimes I found cups of water. Yeah. And I'll take a drink of it. Gross. Mine. And then I go- Stranger water. Teppin. Why? And I just, I'll just say it because it's a good word. Teppin.
Don't drink stranger water.
I don't drink stranger water. It's my water.
Like you wouldn't just grab water off a table and drink it. Depends on how thirsty I am. I'm not stranger water thirsty ever.
You haven't been very thirsty.
I have access to my own cup and a whole bunch of water.
Haven't you ever been in a place though where you're like, whose water is this? And you've been like, maybe outside doing some work. No. And you can't remember which water is yours. And then you're like, I think this is mine.
I'm just going to drink this one. I carry a Sharpie in my pocket so I can write on the lid. I don't do that. No.
Yeah. You don't. I don't do that. You have yourself put together. I don't know about that.
I have some paranoia I'm dealing with and I have ways of handling it. I think is more accurate. So my buddy John, he told me that I should start watching the Madison.
Madison. And I thought, you know, I probably should. I've been told multiple times that I would be into it. So started the show last night, watched the first episode before I kind of dive in. I don't want to give you away, you know, any spoilers for folks who haven't watched it. It's fairly new show. The first season is done. I assume there will be a second season. I don't know. I'm going to look into that. But tell me first impressions.
Okay. So the Madison is from the same director that has done Yellowstone. That's right. And so a lot of people think it's like a spin off. And I guess it is, but they're also saying it's kind of a standalone.
Yeah, I don't know much about Yellowstone. I don't watch Yellowstone. So I don't know a lot. I know it's got Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell. And Matthew Fox. And Matthew Fox, Jack from Lost. Who, by the way, you said right out the gate, like, I had no idea that was Matthew Fox.
He looked so familiar. And I was like, who is that? Right. And then I finally was like, that's Matthew Fox. Yeah. Yeah. He looks a little bit grungy.
He looks a little bit older. A little man of the land. Yeah, a little man of the land. I feel like you're probably like, yeah, Matthew Fox.
I kind of, I'm not mad about it.
Right. He's got a little silver in the hair. Yeah, I don't. I'm not mad about it. Right. I could tell. It was, I saw him on the screen and I went, yeah, she's going to like, Matthew Fox character here.
Yeah. So a couple of things that surprised me in the first episode, it was the only one that I've watched so far. I did not know that there was an Idaho Falls nod. I didn't know that. And I went, what? And then it was fun to go, okay, where did they film this stuff?
So it's kind of set in Montana on the Madison River. And it's two brothers who are heavy into fly fishing, which is why they said you should watch it.
That is why John was like, you need to watch this.
And they had to fly into Idaho Falls. That's right. And then they went to the Idaho Falls Coroner's office.
Okay. Bondiville County Coroner's office. Let's talk a little bit about this. First of all, the Idaho Falls airport is not where they filmed the airport. That was filmed in the Boseman Yellowstone International Airport. That is what stood in for the Idaho Falls airport.
Okay. Which, you know, I could have filmed in the Idaho Falls airport. Like, I mean, I'm sure they could have done it for real, but okay.
They filmed at the Boseman Yellowstone International Airport. Now the coroner's office, not even close. No.
No. I don't know what building that was, but also the Bondiville County Sheriff's office is a completely different building that exists in Wetherford, Texas. So most of the filming, there is some filming that happens in Montana, but all of like the urban stuff happens in Dallas, Texas.
Where they film it all. Liars. So when they're portraying that they're in New York, they're actually in Dallas, Texas, for almost all those scenes, which is, which is kind of interesting. So anyway, that was kind of fun to kind of deep dive into some of the filming locations. I do like that there's a couple of like really nice fishing spots that I'm like, man, we got to check out some of these, we got to check out some of these fishing spots because this looks great. And if they're like that close in Montana, I got to go fishing on some of these. But I like that they're like, this might have been filmed in this spot because it kind of looks like that. But it's also like really hard to tell exactly where it was. And I went, yeah, you would, you would hide your fishing spots show about fishing. You would. Okay. So I just read a review from somebody that said I've just watched the first six episodes of season one. I don't know.
I'm not spoiling anything. I'm not spoiling anything. And it's officially the worst show I've seen all year. No way. No way. Yeah.
Who said that? After six episodes, I'm not sure what the point of the Madison was.
Oh, good. Yeah. I'm sure. I mean, I can tell you from the first episode what the point is. Who wrote that? Someone we know?
No, no, no, no, no. Oh, good. Somebody.
Just random online.
Yeah. Okay. Two, two stars. They gave it. Now it's, it's interesting. There's some things that I'm like, but it's also the pilot and you have to give. Okay. You have to give a little bit of grace after the pilot because the pilot is the very first episode. The characters are kind of trying to develop. The actors are all trying to feel each other out.
Like you just got to give it. Go back first season for another episode. You can't base the show solely on the pilot itself sometimes. Okay. I mean, I watched another episode. I don't quite know how I feel about it yet.
I'm, I'm digging it. I'm just doing it. I'm hokey. Hokey. Interesting. Interesting. Interesting. So far I'm digging the amount of fly fishing has been great. A cameo from a movie I like is in there. I like that. I'm good with it so far, but I've got five more episodes and then we'll see how I feel about it. But I'm kind of, I'm kind of cool with it so far. I like it. And that's all I have to say about the Madison. That I finally started watching.
It sounds like so into the Madison.
That's right. Oh man. Mighty Madison. Don't spoil it for me.
I'm not, I'm not spoiling anything.
Are you reading spoilers? No. All right. Good deal. Try to avoid them. I am. Settle down. All right. I'm calm. How many people can keep a secret? One. That's the right answer. That is the correct answer. One.
Yeah. Why you say that?
Apparently it's only me.
I haven't given away any secrets.
We've been asked to sort of keep one. Yeah. I've kept a secret. I haven't given anything away. Okay. A lot more than I have. Well, yeah. You're tight-lipped. Yeah, I know. Because I can keep a secret.
We were asked by Emery last week if we could give, if she could give our phone numbers to her boyfriend who is trying to ask her to prom. Maybe.
See. How many people can keep a secret? She told us that. Yeah. No, I know that part.
And then we got a text.
No, we didn't. See? Too much. You've done too much already. She's not listening. No, I know. But what? Other people that she knows might be.
Okay, but here's the crazy thing. They've talked about going. He already bought the ticket. Yeah. He just hasn't officially asked her yet. Yeah. So, shh. Okay.
Secrets, man.
My favorite part was when I said to Emery after she asked if she could give him our phone numbers, I said, you better make sure your room is clean. She goes, I know, I know. And then we get a text.
No, might have. Allegedly.
Allegedly. Come on. Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Who's that?
Yeah, I don't know who that is. I'm not, that's the thing where somebody would say like, Mr. your last name, you go, that's my dad. I'm not that guy. That's my dad.
I appreciate the respect I do, but no need to be formal. You don't need to be formal with me. I don't, call me by my first name. It sounds weird when you say Mrs. Does it? So-and-so.
I mean, when you worked in the school environment, you didn't even have a miss or a missus or whatever. They just called you your last name. Like, what's up? And you were like, yeah, that's me.
I liked it though. I kind of liked it.
Okay. But at that, I feel like the school you were at, everybody kind of had that kind of vibe. Like everybody wasn't like a formal Mr. and Mrs. it was just by the last name. That was just your last name was your identity. Correct. Principal all the way down to, was it the same with the janitor? Everybody's called him by his last name. So it was kind of just the vibe of the place.
And I liked it. And they would shout down the hall, yo, last name.
Yo, last name.
Yo. Yo, Tyler. Right. I liked that. Anyway, so there is allegedly a prom maybe. proposal happening this weekend. I don't know. I don't know either because I'm gonna be out of town. Right. You still have to respond. Shh. Allegedly. Because you're gonna be the one in town. And it's making me kind of anxious that you haven't responded yet.
I know you keep talking about it. Because you have to respond.
He has to know when a good time is to come over.
I don't know when's a good time yet. So say that. Say what? I'll work on it. Okay. I'm looking. All right. I don't even know where that text thread is. It's so far back.
It's not that far back. I found it just fine.
It's right here. It's only the third one down.
It's only the third one down and you had a problem finding it. Mine is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. What are you talking about? I'm 16 texts down. I found that.
You text too much. Mine was third down. Yeah, I have a lot of texts.
I have a lot of texts. Yeah. But a lot of them are, like reminder, you have a dentist appointment. Reminder, you have a hair appointment. Those are a lot of texts that I get to. Anyway, respond. Let him know when the good time to come over is. Okay. Cause it's making me nervous that you haven't responded.
To an alleged text, by the way. Right. Just to confirm again, only one person in this room can keep a secret. Yeah. What's up?
I got a text from you yesterday that said, if I wanted to buy something, what's it going to take for you to not look at the bank account?
That's right. Because we have a shared bank account. And here's where this becomes troublesome, is when it's birthday time. I'm real lazy about looking at the bank account. So it's, you know, usually I'll just go like, hey, do we have, like, can I buy this? Do we have money?
Yeah. Do I have money in the bank? Like, is that a thing? Like, can I spend some money on this? Like, it's easier for me to ask you than it is for me to figure out how to log in and look myself.
But you have access to it. I know I do. Okay. But I'm just, it's so much easier for me to go, I need to do this thing, can I do this thing? And you go like, can we wait? Or yeah, go ahead. Yeah. And I go, okay, great. I'm much more diligent about. Right.
So I know that like, when I need to make a purchase for, let's say, hypothetically a gift, that I don't want you to know where I'm shopping. So I need to say, hey, I need you to not look at the bank. Cause I, you know, stuff takes time. Well, that's good thing. So if I'm gonna have stuff arrive for your birthday next weekend, then I need to be.
Good job thinking ahead, Josh. Well, I always do.
But I need to have you not look at the bank account. And I know you've got some travel ahead this weekend. And I'm like, you're gonna need to look so that you know, here's the deal. You can look at the balance, but don't look at like the individual items. Cause you can look and see like, okay, there's money in there.
Well, that's, I was actually, when you texted me, I was actually looking at the bank account because I know. Of course you were. I haven't seen that bill come out yet. And this is a particular bill that changes month by month. And I don't always know, they tell me how much they're gonna take out every month, but I don't ever look at what they send. And so I wanted to see how much they were gonna take out this month. And I was looking yesterday to see if that had come out yet. And it hadn't, and you sent me that text and I went, that's hilarious. Don't look at the bank account as I'm currently looking at the bank account. Of course you were.
So are you out of it now? I'm out of it now. Good. Don't go back in.
I'm not. Okay. Or else you're gonna spoil stuff. I'm not. And I know you are, I gotta unwrap the present and wrap it back up, kind of lady.
I just don't like knowing, I don't like not knowing what everybody else knows.
No one else knows because there's only one person in this room that can keep a secret and it's me. So don't look, that's it. That's all you have to do. Okay. Is don't look at the individual lines. Look at the whole number. Okay. And that's fine, but don't look deep into the lines. Okay.
You feel me? This is especially troublesome at Christmas. Correct. Because I always like to keep a tab on what we're spending at Christmas. And then I go, okay.
Just give me a number. So at least I can keep track of how much has been spent. Correct. And you go, I spent this much. And I go, thank you very much. Right.
And then I'll go back later after Christmas and write a title.
I just say, I put all the receipts in an envelope and then after Christmas I go, there you go. Yeah. And have fun. You go nuts. Your bank account. Put it in your app. Do your spreadsheet.
I actually like keeping track of them.
I know you do. It's great. And I do books for other things and I have the same enjoyment. I just don't do ours because you do. And that's fine. You imagine if I started getting in there, you'd lose your mind. If I started playing in the spreadsheet, start making things different colors just for fun. You lose your mind.
I don't know if you, you have access to the spreadsheet too. I've given you, yeah, I mean.
Well, I don't have access to your app where you do all your registry stuff.
But you have access to the spreadsheet where it's like, this is do this.
Yeah, I know the correct. But sometimes there's certain codes that I have and I don't know if you'd understand my method. No, I wouldn't.
Not that it's a difficult process to understand, but I've got a couple of different areas that I go, that's a color that means this. And I know what it means. Oh yeah? You won't necessarily know what it means. No, I won't.
But I am excited because I feel like this is the first year in a while that I've been like, I know exactly what to get you for your birthday. And I think it's gonna be a fun one. So that's always fun. Interesting. Interesting.
I'm trying to think of there's something that I've said I wanted. No.
No? No, it's just what I know. This is just what I know to be true. Interesting.
Yeah, oh, interesting. Interesting.
Okay. So no looking at the bank. I'm not. In detail.
Kivits, you can't just stop talking about it too then.
Why? Because. Control yourself.
Every time you talk about it, it just makes me more and more curious. Stop it. I'm not gonna. I'm just a baby. I gotta look at the presents. What is it? You are.
How are we ever gonna have a surprise for you ever when you get like this and you go, I just gotta know.
That's the thing though, Josh, isn't it? What? Just have the surprise and say, hey, I got you the surprise.
You know it's not today.
I know, but you told me yesterday, I'm working on a surprise for you.
And then I go, you're gonna make me wait. I never said I'm working on a surprise for you. Yes, you did. No. You said. I said, don't look at the bank account, I got some shopping to do. Which is a surprise. I didn't say I'm working on a surprise.
I have some shopping to do, means I'm working on a surprise.
No, it could be stuff for myself. It could be. You're right. I could have stored it a bunch of rock crawler parts.
I wouldn't put it past you.
A bunch of fly tying material. I do need some fly tying material.
You always need fly tying material. It's true.
It's true. I need some UV chenille. Need. Yeah. I got a pattern I need to tie up and I need some materials. You know? So maybe it's just a bunch of that and I didn't want you to know that I was just shopping online for fly fishing stuff. Like don't look at the bank.
I wouldn't put it past you. You'll be so disappointed. I know. I would be like, oh man.
Like why did he buy all that stuff for that RC truck? It's ridiculous.
Flyfishing.com. I don't need anything there.
What's on that website? I better look that up. Flyfishing.com. This site can't be reached. Who owns it? I don't know.
What a wasted opportunity.
Own it. Oh, somebody owns it. I'm gonna find out who real quick.
Please do this for everyone to hear.
Flyfishing.com. Who is Domain Search? I can't even find out who owns it.
That's okay. We don't need to know. I'm not gonna look at the bank account. Let's just leave it at that. Sounds good. I'll be strong for a week. I've only got a week. It's a week. Saturday.
It's more than seven days.
It's nine. It's nine days. Nine days. Can you handle it? Yeah, I'll handle it. Nine days.
I can tell you whoever owns it bought it from Godaddy.com in 1995. Hey, hey.
This is just your own private research.
Just, just, this doesn't need to be shared. And it's registered in Tempe, Arizona. No, hey, Josh.
Hey, look at my face. What? Just find this out in your own time. Yeah. You told me I have a problem with things being messy.
Not necessarily you have a problem with things being messy. You have a problem with looking at anything and saying that's a mess or that's messy. So you have a problem with messes more than you have a problem with things being messy. But everything you look at, you go, oh, that's going to make a mess. Or you'll say the house is a mess or the yard is a mess. Like I constantly like five times a day hear about a mess. Oh, I'm a mess. My car's a mess. I need to go to the car wash. It's a mess.
You know what? More messes. So I think you just have, you have a tendency to notice a mess or predict a mess or think things are a mess when they are not a mess. You have a natural mess detection going on, I think.
We were shopping for trees and we were looking at a, what tree was it?
Well, you didn't want to get any of the crab apples because they'll make a mess. I don't want the yard to be a mess.
And there was another one with the seeds.
Yeah, anything with berries on it. You were like, that's going to be a mess.
I know, I can't think of the tree. Anyway, I was like, no, we can't get that one because it's going to leave a mess. Ha ha ha.
Here's a conversation I had with our daughter just the other day. We were looking at the trees and I was showing her and she was smelling yours. She's like, that smells so good. And then she was looking at the one that I got, the big tall guy. And she's like, man, we're going to have to rake more leaves. And I went, oh, that's a mess. Ha ha ha ha. Bringing in trees, now we're going to have to deal with more leaves. What a mess.
But leaves are good.
Yeah, no, good mulch. The leaves are good for the ecosystem. Good for the yard, yeah, great.
Yeah, good mulch. I have a flower bed that has a ton of leaves in it. And I was like, I don't want to rake these out. And then I Googled and it said,
actually, you should leave them because it protects your plants. That's right, it's insulation. It's a lot of things.
Helps the bugs. Yeah. And we like bugs at our house. We don't mind bugs. As long as they're outside. I don't even mind the ones inside.
We did have a friend, Spider. I don't know where he went. We had one of those little black, fuzzy, jumpy house spiders. And Luna likes to watch it. So we let it roam around the living room. But I don't know where he's at these days.
Yeah, he run away. I don't know where he is. He run away. I don't mind him either. Get all the little bugs. Yeah, that's what they do. Bite the little bugs. I don't care about that. Get all those gnats that are coming in and having a time with my plants. Get those things. I don't mind. You're a quiet little roommate. Mm-hmm. I don't mind spiders. I don't mind bugs.
I don't like the hobo spiders.
I don't like those either. Or the black widows.
The black widows leave you alone. They just do their own thing. As long as you don't mess with them, they're fine. I don't want them in the house. I don't mind if they're like out in the wood. That's fine. Have a good time. But when I go to get a firewood, don't be mad at me. Just carefully. Just rebuild. Get your firewoods out. That's right. So I'm not upset about that. I'm not a big fan of the wasps right now. No. They came out in a big way.
And they are not going into our trap.
I know. And here's the thing. I need them for the garden. I do not need them in the abundance they are in right now. Because they eat all the aphids and stuff. So they're really good for the garden because they eat bugs off of the plants. They get the little caterpillars, all that stuff.
That's right. You were watching them last year.
So I need them around for the garden. I just don't need 8,000 of them around. Because there's too many. There's a lot.
There were so many that the other day, I took the flyswatter out when I was trying to get in with the flyswatter. Not a solid idea. No. They're not flies. No. And I was doing a lot of missing and they were getting very mad. And I said, run away.
So, you know, like I need them around because they're part of the garden ecosystem. But I just don't want them to be so prevalent.
In abundance. Yeah. I get what you're saying.
Yeah. I don't need all of them. But also, why are the traps not working? I think it's because they have enough food right now. They have, we just brought two flowering trees to the yard. That's natural nectar.
They're going to go for that before they're going to go for the fake stuff. There's too much food. There's flowers everywhere. There's dandelions. There's all kinds of stuff. They don't need to go to the trap food. Crud. Right. Crud indeed.
OK. Well, what were we talking about when we first opened this microphone? Oh. You have a problem with the messes. Messes. Yeah. Hey, speaking of, my car needs a car wash. Is it a mess? It's a messy. I'm winded. Yeah, I know. Me too. I had to go on a wild goose chase. Am I the wild goose? Yes.
OK, what's up? Where were you looking so hard for me?
Well, we have a job to do. What do you mean? From 6 to 10. Yeah. There are four breaks per hour that we have to do on the radio. Sure. We were set to talk. You were nowhere to be. They're a minute ago? Yeah. Oh, OK. You were nowhere to be found.
I was found. You found me. I was outside with our boss, which makes it legit. That's true.
You weren't doing work.
I mean, no, not really.
No. No. Not really. I was skateboarding.
We have talked about our co-worker who is turning 20 soon, and she's put together a bucket list of teenager-dom things that she wants to get done before she's no longer a teenager. And on that list, she was telling me yesterday she had on her list, learn how to do a kickflip. And I said, do you have a skateboard? And she said, no.
And I went, well, I do. And you can borrow it if you want. So I brought it in, and she's in the office. And so I took it down there. And I said, hey, I brought the skateboard. And she was like, you want to see what I can do? So we had like six of us gathered around to watch some sketchy skate. Yeah.
I was getting a little nervous because the skateboarding was a little sketchy. And I was nervous somebody was going to break or something was going to break.
Yeah. So we said, let's go outside. I didn't realize you had gone outside. I decided that was a better place to try to skate.
I came back into the studio where I knew we had to do some work. Right.
And I went outside to skateboard.
And I was looking at the time going, mm-hmm.
And then I walked down all the way down to where we had been. Yeah. And I said, where is Josh? And they're like, he's outside. And I went outside. And here's the other part.
You can't go outside unless you have a way to get back in. Which I do. I did not. So I walked all the way back to get my keys so I could go outside and say, hey, we have jobs to do. I wondered
why you didn't just go out where we were. Because there's multiple exits and you could have just went out where we were.
And I come back and get my keys so that I could go out.
But we would have had access. So you could have just went. But I didn't know that. Why would we go outside without a way to get back in? You know? Anyway. Regardless, I was skateboarding and so we didn't talk when we were supposed to. But now we're talking now instead. So we're still here.
Fear not. If I knew how to do stuff myself, I would just maybe have talked myself. I wouldn't have. Why?
Because what would I say? What would you have said? Let's hear. I told you. Let's do a pretend. Ready? Song's ending and you got to talk in three, two, one.
Hey, everyone. I told you, it's like the waiting garth episode. Waiting leaves them and it's just garth all alone. Like, we're having a good time. Things are good. We're having fun.
I kind of want to hear you on this side of the room do the buttons. By myself? Open it. Just to hear just one. And I'll be nearby just so that if you need, like I don't know what I'm doing, I can jump in and be a lifeline.
It'd be so bad. Why? I'm afraid it would be so bad.
The hardest part about doing it by yourself is talking to yourself. Yeah. Because, you know, this is a normal, natural conversation. You and I hanging out. That's what we do. But if you get into where it's just you, it's like, well, I don't have a lot to say about it just by myself. You know, like, what did we talk about just a minute ago? You and your messes, right? Problem with things being messy. Like if that's just me telling the story, I gotta tell you, my wife. Like that's how it would go. My wife has an issue with things being messy.
I gotta tell you, my wife, we start every break that way.
Let me tell you about my wife. Her birthday's coming up and I told her you can't look at the bank account. Like it just doesn't have the same, you know what I mean? Agreed. Like it's got to have the two of us. That's how it works.
Just the two of us. Yeah, that's right. Another musical stim has been found. Well, anyway, we're back. We got a job to do. I'm here. I'm not skateboarding anymore till after the show. Fine.
Welcome back. Thanks.
Got a guy who posted a picture. He was hanging out with his four-year-old. And apparently there was some kind of party in the living room. And he got invited by his four-year-old to go to the party. But he showed up late. And so now he's in line behind many, many, many other tigers and bunnies and dolls and unicorns. He's in line. He can't get into the party. He just showed up late.
That's what happens when you show up late to the party.
Well, he also says he arrived as soon as he was invited. So his daughter said, hey, you got to come to this party. And he went, okay. And she said, you're late. Get in line. So immediately is not soon enough. You got to be ahead of being invited. You just got to know where to be, apparently. He did say the good news is that the line is moving. Well, boinging into the party quickly.
Okay. I was going to say, is it moving at all?
It's boinging into the party quickly. The bad news is that it might be time to go to school before he can get into the party. Oh, no. So there's a problem.
A party before school? Yeah. This four-year-old is wild. Yeah.
I'm just looking at everybody in line. And there's quite a few. The cat and the bear together. The little spotted dog thing is next. Then there's two bunnies, but they're not together because they're one in front of the other.
Not side by side. Then there's another dog. Then there's the tiger. Then there's the small kitten. And then the puffy, very colorful creature is with the unicorn. And then dad.
And then dad is very, very last in line. Who's very late? Well, show up what you're meant to.
I mean, this four-year-old is throwing quite the gala. I hope he gets there before school starts.
Yeah, that could be a problem. A morning party before school? I know. Have you even had one of those before?
I never have. I've never been invited. Me neither. But I've also never stood in that line. So I feel bad for that guy. That four-year-old is tough. I got, should have been on time.
She just needs to slip her a little piece of candy.
I feel like she set up the line before she invited him. I think so too. And then went, oh, you got to get in line. You can't just come to the party. It's a very high-demand party. Everybody's waiting to get in.
I was going to say, is there anybody at the party? Or are they all just waiting in line?
I don't see a picture of the party. I only see the line to get into the party. Gotcha. So it's hard to say.
So we don't know what the party even is. That's right. This is very exclusive. Yeah. Not even cameras allowed. True story. I kind of want to go to that party. What do you think's happening? How's the music? What's the vibe? I don't know. Probably a bluey.
Good party. Blue themed party. A little keepy-uppy. Oh man. Yeah. It's a good party.
I'm not invited. I know. I know. We never get invited to the cool party.
The bluey, keepy-uppy party? That'd be a good one. Okay. Go ahead and tell me would you rather this or that?
Would you rather hike through mud or non-stop bugs? I'm going to pick the bugs. Okay. Same.
Because I do plenty of hiking and most of it's through bugs.
Yeah. And you can get like a little face net. I have that. You do? Yeah.
Do you wear it? When the bugs are bad. Hmm. How much does it weigh? Nothing. It's a little tiny mesh mosquito net for my head. Cute. Did you not know I had that?
I have a lot of gear. I know you do. It's hard to keep track.
I'm curious what gear you think I might not have that I might.
I don't know the answer to that question.
Because you haven't done like a big multi-day hike with me. I have not. So you don't know all the gear that I actually have that I carry. Correct. Interesting. You should come to one of my trainings where I teach this stuff so that you could know the backpacking gear that I have versus the gear that you have versus the gear that we recommend people bring.
I know that you have a lot of gear. And I know that you talk to me about your gear all of the time. But you don't know about it. I don't know everything that you have. Yeah.
And you don't need to know everything. If I told you to go pack your backpack for a week, do you think you'd get everything you need? No. No, I wouldn't. Okay. What would you forget? Everything.
I would forget everything. I would probably forget something to light my fire. Okay. I could see myself forgetting that.
What if you're camping where you can't have a fire? Well, then I would be fine.
I'd take a heat pot thing. A heat pot. You know, those instant pot things that instantly heats up your food. What are those called?
Are you just talking about the camp stove? Yeah. That you use to boil water? Well, I don't have a jet boil, but that's fine. I have an MSR. What's the difference? Brand. But go on.
Go on what? What am I talking about?
I just, I mean, mosquito net, yes. I got that. Okay. For hiking through bugs. Good job. Mud is awful. I know. Especially if it's that sticky clay type that makes your feet all heavy. And then you lose shoes. Yeah, that if it's deep mud with it, it goes, when you try to get your foot out of it, exactly what it sounds like. And you go, ah, this mud.
Yeah. And then it just makes everything nasty. Right. What a mess.
We know you hate a mess. I am curious to see, there's a couple of things in life that I have shown you, or you've been close enough to that I'd like to see if you could handle them. Change a flat tire. Yeah. Fine.
Yeah, fine. Can do. I just need help with the jack.
You don't. It's a one man job.
You have to lift the jack. I don't know how to use the jack.
The instructions are on it. Okay. These are the things that I was like, I would like to see you do them so that you could feel confident that you could do them.
I would like to attempt while you were close by.
That's what I'm saying. I'll be right there. And to just give help when help is needed. Right. But I bet I could figure things out. I know you could. I figured things out long before I met you. I know. That's why I know you could.
And then I just got too dependent. I was like, oh, Josh will do that. Yeah. I don't need to know that. Josh will do that. I still do that.
Well, let's get you some confidence in independence. Okay. You sound so excited.
What are you picking? I'm picking bugs because mud is awful as we discussed. So the same thing I said you were saying?
Yeah. But I said it at the same time that you did. Would you rather this or that?
Our daughter is registering for classes for next year right now. And she is signed up for a dual credit pre-calculus. And so I was looking a little bit into pre-cal. I never got that high in math.
I didn't either.
I did not. Not even close. No, not even close. And she's going into her junior year at pre-cal. So she's good at math. Smarty. So I wanted to learn a little bit more about what exactly pre-calculus is to prepare you for calculus. And it's a combination of college algebra and trigonometry is what I learned. So then I wanted to give you an example.
What do you mean? Like a problem you want me to solve? Yes. Are you insane?
So here is I'm trying to figure out how to give you all the information that you need.
Okay, I'm ready.
You got my pen and got my paper. Well, I'm going to hand you the equation.
Okay. It's this is going to be so fun.
Okay. So I just handed you that and you tell me what you see.
Well, first of all, what is that an F?
It's an F. Yeah, because it's a function.
Okay. Okay. So sure. Are these are the same? This is the same equation.
So what I've given you that's one equation. So the function multiplied by X in parentheses there equals X squared plus three X minus four. Do you see that? That's the equation that you that's the problem. Yep. Right?
Yep. So you need to figure out what the like you're not going to know the function, but I'm going to tell you see where I wrote a up there. So the function I've given you is time zero in parentheses. Okay.
So you can assume then that that's zero that the X equals zero in this equation. Oh. You see? Yep. So it's sort of like a little puzzle. So that gives you the function times zero equals zero squared plus three times zero, three X, right? Minus four. So if you're going to do all of that, what would be the solution if the function X is zero?
Sure. Let me see here.
This is just one equation. And I gave you the easy tier of this particular equation. It gets much harder if when they start adding in additional letters or multiplying.
I don't even know. I don't even know. I've got my calculator out. I'm going to say it's a negative four. You're correct. What? You're correct.
Look at what you did. And how did you come to that conclusion?
Well, this is so dumb. I hate that. No way. Okay. Well, you told me that X equals zero. That's right. So I plugged in zero for all of the X's.
That's correct. I know that zero times two is zero. Yeah. I know that three times zero is zero. Right. And I know that this over here was zero. Zero minus four is what I'm not with, which gives me negative four.
You are correct. You just did a pre-cal equation and got the right answer. Look at me. Now, some of these, okay,
now, just real quick, because I don't want to take too long, make X equal two and see what solution you get. Okay. So again, the equation is the function is two in parentheses equals two squared plus three times two minus four.
That would be your working thing.
Are you going to talk to people while I'm doing this?
Well, no, I'm just going to sit here silently while you're trying to figure things out. Now, it's important you remember the order of operations.
Right. I know that parentheses are always first. Right. So let's see.
Okay. Yeah. Is it working? I can hear the gears are turning. You are doing some maths over here. Okay. Right. Yeah.
Okay. Okay. What'd you get? I think that it's 10. It's not 10.
So you have to kind of ignore. Negative eight? No. Okay. So we're going to work through it. So your function with two being the X in parentheses on the left just stays there. That doesn't go anywhere because your function is just going to sit there. So that equals two squared. Two squared is eight. Two times two. Four. Two squared. Okay. Right. That'll help you out. That's where your maths, that's where you're missing.
Okay. Let me try again. So then you have four. Okay. Plus three times two. Six. So four plus six is? Ten. Minus four. Six.
The solution is? Six. Yes. See? You got this. You know how to math? Come on. I like doing math on the radio. That's good content.
That is good content. I like solving math on the radio. Boy oh boy. How fun.
You did great. You knocked the first one out of the park and you got the second one. You should frame that. You did math. You did pre-calculus math on the radio. It's impressive. I'm not.
I'm going to send a picture to our daughter and say, look who's doing calculus.
Look at me doing pre-cal. Well fun for you and fun for her. She'll have a good time in that class. She likes algebra a lot. She really does. So this is going to bridge the algebra concepts into trigonometry and get you ready for calculus at a college level. So she's doing a dual credit high level math class in her 11th grade.
I don't know. Look at the big grade on this one. Because now senior year, if all goes well in pre-cal, she can take calculus for real or she can take statistics. Yeah. Yeah.
And then she could like, pre-cal's a major stepping stone for all STEM careers. So if you want to do anything with math in it, this is a great place to start.
I'm great. I'm excited for her. She's going to do great. Yeah. And I just feel completely inadequate because I didn't even come close.
I didn't either.
A lot of that's the algebra side. Obviously the trig side is going to be a lot of the graphing and turning those equations into curves and stuff. And that's when I go like, yeah, cool. I don't care. So I stop listening.
I know, right? Cosines and tangents. Not in real things. No, they are.
They're real. That's it for this show. Our time is up. Let's say goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye. See you tomorrow. Goodbye. It's Friday. Tomorrow is Friday. We'll see you then. One more goodbye.
K-bye. Okay, bye.
