Full show transcript:
Your birthday was almost a week ago, and I noticed, you know, earlier this week when we came in on Monday, the decorations had been cleaned up. You were kinda sad about that. But there's one little decoration that still hangs on. Which one is it? It's right in front of your face.
This this flower? Yeah. I've got one over here too. Aw. This is so cute.
My little birthday crown is over here too. Nice. So there's little flowers smiling at you. Yeah. And I see it every once in a while, pop up on your microphone will be up high enough.
I'll see it. And I go, that's super cute, this little flower. Hanging onto the microphone. I feel like I need a little something on mine. I don't know what to get, though.
A fish? A fish? That's a good idea. That's a good idea. Hey.
It's Thursday, May 8. Don't wear socks today. And if you did, take them off. That's right. Because it's no sock day.
No sock day. I've been rolling around in bare feet all morning. Have you? No. Sick.
Put your shoes on. May is way busier than December unless you're Josh. Yeah. No. It's just May.
Yeah. What's the big deal? Everything's fine for me. Yeah. December is totally fine for you too.
True. Hey, kids. Get to class. Yeah. Would you quit with the PDA and walking each other to class?
Just go to class. Get to class. Go to class. Get to class. Hey.
I'm really good at interrupting when Josh is taking a video. Yeah. It's a talent. You have a special skill. You're welcome.
Yeah. Thanks. I have a lot of special skills. Oh, yeah? None of them are valuable.
That's not true. What what other skills do you have? Let me let me think upon it. Okay. I'll just wait here.
Okay. Someone has teeny tiny toenails. It's not me. It's me. It's you.
It's me. You're the teeny tiny toenail lady. Josh over explains himself, and it's embarrassing. It depends on who you ask. I think I'm just being friendly.
I think it's embarrassing too. You do? Yeah. You don't need a bison selfie. But but I do.
How am I gonna prove to people I saw a buffalo? Let's take the picture. You don't need to be in it. I'm in it. You don't need to be in it.
Close I am. Look at how the bison's horn is in me. Oh, it hurts. Yul Brynner is the only handsome bald man from the nineteen fifties according to Google. This is just facts.
Every other nineteen fifties bald man is a goof. A sub four minute mile world record could be set next month. If you'll just get out and start training. Me? Yes.
You. It's not gonna be me. It could be. Oh, I don't want it to be. Paper birds could save the sage grouse.
Let's hope. Fingers crossed. Maybe don't quit your job because chat GPT tells you to. Or do. Whatever.
It's your job. It's your life. Just make your own decisions. Yeah. Sure.
And there's a population surge happening this weekend. So heads up. The foosball. Right. No hands.
Just feet unless you're the goalie. Football. That's right. We are Josh and Chantel. This is wake up classy 97, the podcast.
Hope you enjoy today's show. Hey there. Oh, what's up, good buddy? Did you remember your weights? I just remembered you didn't remember your weights.
What? I was I was I was going this Thursday. We were supposed to do something. Then I was looking at the show yesterday at our notes, and you were supposed to have tricep Thursday. Yeah.
And I put it in my calendar. I'm looking at my calendar. It says bring weights. Yeah? What happened?
I just I was rushed this morning, and I didn't look at my phone. So then I didn't look at my calendar. Oh, man. I'm pretty bummed out by this. Well, I I imagine you are.
I I would assume you are. I am. You can assume Yeah. All you want, but that is the truth. Hey.
You got socks on? No. You don't? No. I Why not?
Because it's beautiful and sunshiny, and I wore sandals. No kidding. Yeah. Kidding. Well, it's no socks day.
So you're in one up on that. You forgot your weights for tricep Thursday, but you're celebrating no socks day. I invited people to participate with me in tricep Thursday. If you have your weights and you're gonna be working your triceps, good on you. I failed.
So bad on me. So I I guess we should have thought about it a little bit harder last night and put them somewhere where you would remember to grab them. Yep. We should have. Were you gonna bring the tens or the little guys?
I was gonna bring the tens. Oh, getting serious. I was gonna get serious. Wow. I was gonna get real serious.
Okay. Oh, man. Oh, man. Crappy sandwich. Well, the worst kind of sandwich.
It is the worst kind of sandwich. But we're here. Here we are. And you're not wearing socks, so that's all good. Are you wearing socks?
I am. You always wear socks. Because gross. Why would you not wear socks? Okay.
Listen to this. You, when I first met you, would wear flip flops, and I kinda liked it. I liked when you wore flip flops. It was kind of a casual, like, a loosey goosey kind of look. I haven't seen you wear flip flops in Twenty years.
Yeah. It's been a really long time. How come you don't wear flip flops anymore? Because I don't own flip flops for one. Do you want me to get you some?
Not really. Why? I don't care for the way they flip and flop when you walk. I don't know. It was a phase.
I had a flip flop phase. I liked it. I liked your flip flop phase. Yeah. Alright.
You do need it, bro. I would rather have my feet covered. I feel like it like, if I go out in public, I should have my feet covered. You have nice feet. I appreciate that, and I and and I agree.
They're not, like, horrible looking feet. I've seen some bad feet. Mhmm. I I don't I don't feel like I have bad feet. You don't?
I don't like, I don't like going out to, like, the grocery store and seeing another man's feet. Like, if ladies wear a sandalow, that's fine. I gel I whatever. I've I've got Chacos for, like Yeah. When I'm doing stuff in the water, water crossings during hikes, you know, that kind of stuff.
Those look good. And those are fine. Yeah. They look good. Yeah.
But I'm not gonna wear them to the grocery store. They look good. You look good when you wear Chaco's. You you're are you being serious, or are you being sarcastic? I'm not being serious.
You don't like my Chaco's? I do not. Why? Because I don't think they look cool. Mean?
No. I'm sorry. What about the slippers that I keep in the camper? What do you think about those? Those are also Choco.
Which one do they look like? The black ones. The little boots. I hate those. Why do you hate my little black boots?
Because they look silly. Yeah. They're great for camping. I like to wear those with shorts because they come over, like, up over my ankle, but they're little, they're little, like, sleeping bags for my feet, and they're awesome. Listen.
If you like them, it doesn't matter what I like. You gotta make yourself happy. That's all. But those are the shoes I wear when I'm not wearing socks. See?
So it's better that I wear socks because then I can wear normal shoes or just socks. If I'm walking around in Chaco's or my my slippers, my, my slippers in the house, you don't like those either. They've grown on me. I don't mind them so much now. They're okay.
I like them. Okay. Well, happy, no socks. Sorry. You forgot your weights.
Me too. Wait. Stop talking about it. What? You're really upset.
I forgot. I forgot that I forgot. Oh. And now I'm sad again. Oh, and in that short amount of time, you've forgotten that you forgot Yeah.
And I brought it back up? Yeah. I have a goldfish brain. Okay. Goldfish brain.
Good morning. Do you feel I mean, you might not because I'm not gonna I'm not gonna call you out. Never mind. Call me out. Let's go.
It's early. Let's do it. What's up? Do I I've been talking to some other moms about this, and December is hectic. December is always a little bit crazy.
Yeah. But May is worse than December sometimes. And I have other moms that have, like, chimed in and been like, yeah. No. It's May is the worst because you have graduations, whether it's sixth grade graduation or preschool graduation or high school graduation or college graduation.
Yeah. And then you have teacher appreciation week, and then you have recitals, and you've got mother's day, and you've got the spring concerts. But you still have all the other stuff that you're still doing whether your kids are in Your life. Clubs. Yeah.
And then you've got theme weeks. Yeah. And then you've got field trips, and you got field day, and you got Mother's Day, and you've got, oh, I gotta sign up my kid for this summer camp, and, oh, I gotta plan our summer vacation, and, oh, I gotta do it's nuts. Alright. Is crazy.
Are you feeling the crazy? Because you also throw in your birthday and Memorial Day. Yeah. So there's all of that stuff because if you're gonna do any kind of, Memorial Day, you know, yeah, camping or or barbecuing or having, you know, family around, visiting cemeteries, you know, those kinds of things. All that takes effort and time.
Yeah. Planning. Uh-huh. Mhmm. Mhmm.
So now are you asking me if my May is busy? Do you feel frazzled? Not at all. Yeah. Exactly.
That's why I was gonna call you out because I just don't think that I don't and this is a generalization. I'm totally generalizing because I know that there are some men who do the planning for this. I don't typically think that husbands are and dads are typically as frazzled as because you've never thought about a teacher appreciation gift. Because you have. Let's let's let's be real.
It isn't because I don't it's because I don't need to. And it's it's not that I don't think about teachers or that I don't appreciate them. I very much do. I just have not had to think about it because you do. If I had not thought about teachers, then the teachers would not have gotten anything from any of us.
Yeah. That's something. Again, not because I don't appreciate it. Just not in my curve to volunteer radar. Yeah.
Mhmm. And I'm not yeah. I just think that's, interesting, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah.
It is interesting. I mean, you know, send send the kid to school with an apple feels low. Yeah. That's pretty Like, here you go. For somebody who's dealt with your student all year and gone above and beyond for them most a lot of the time.
And here's the other crazy part is that I only have we only have really one that we're worried about right now. Right. Our other one has graduated and doing his own thing. Yeah. So I I don't I can't even imagine the parents that have multiple kids.
I was talking to somebody the other day, and they're like, I've got a preschool graduation and a college graduation on the same day, and I'm trying to figure out which one to go to. I'm like, that's a tough call. Divide and conquer? Is that how that works? Like, at at some point, you're gonna have to.
You have to because you can't make both of them. Right. And you're gonna have to do video so that you can, share in the joy of, you know, accomplishment. Interesting. But you're you're not wrong, though.
There is a lot that goes into kinda making all that stuff happen, and and, I appreciate that, you're on my team and making us, appear like where you got it all together. Because you're right. I would not at all, have thought of those things. And and to be fair, if the kids, you know, were like, hey. It's we want I wanna do something nice for my teacher, you know, this week.
We could figure something out. Well and here's the other part is that Beck never would have thought about that. No. But Emery would have. Sure.
Emery would have taken care of that. A little bit different when you get into middle school and high school where you've got, you know, five or six teachers, and three trimesters, and so you end up with 15 different people throughout the year. Like, do you do something for all 15 and the coaches and the advisors and the people that lead the groups and the you know what I'm saying? I get it. There's a lot of, like, you you just do your best.
Right? Like, that's ultimately you just try to do your best. Everybody's just trying our best. Have a little grace if we forget something. That's what I'm saying.
It's it's not the end of the world. Is crazy. And in the blink of an eye, it's gonna be over, and we'll be on to June. That's right. And then in a blink of an eye, we'll be back in December.
Let's let's just enjoy May right now. It's it's eight days in. Let's let's settle down. Enjoy it. K.
Go outside. Get some sunshine. Let's go outside. Let's go do some sun salutations. Okay.
Okay. I got a I got some other stuff I'm working on, but sure. Alright. I mean, yeah, I wanna do sun salutations. Doesn't sound like you.
No. I do. Okay. I also wish I was doing it in the mountains because then it's awesome. It's amazing.
I know. Let's go do it in the mountains. Well, in September, it's gonna be great. In the mountains, sun salutations, backpacking, it's gonna be awesome. Hey.
That's not today. If you're trying to make it through May, good luck to you. Yeah. That's what I wanna say. Chin up.
You got this. Yeah. And It's only eight days in. Forgot one of the things, give yourself some grace. Cut yourself some slack.
You're doing good. Hey, moms and dads who are participating. Doing good stuff. Alright. Keep going.
It's my motivational That's a good one. For today. Alright. Thank you. Here's some good news to get you going.
Let's hear it. Jeffrey Shaw. He's from Richland, Washington. He rode his bike over 363 miles to Springfield, Oregon recently, to raise funds for addiction recovery. He covered the 363 miles by riding for about twenty four hours, which is a pretty amazing pace because there's an elevation change of about 9,000 feet, which is incredible.
When he hopped off his bike, he said he felt like he was on top of the world and explained why this adventure was so important to him. He said, twenty one years ago, I had a substance abuse problem for for several years. And, I got off of all the substance stuff because somebody offered me help. It changed my life, so why shouldn't somebody else have that same opportunity to change their lives? So thanks to everyone who supported Jeffrey's ride.
$12,000 will be donated to the Sweep. It's a charity group dedicated to supporting those battling addiction, which is a great amount of money, that he raised by riding his bicycle 363 miles and 9,000 feet of elevation gain, which is pretty incredible. Bud. From, yeah, from Richland, Washington to Springfield, Oregon, 363 miles is a good distance. That's a big deal.
And you raised a great amount of money, $12. Well done. That is well done. Jeffrey Shaw is the guy's name. Well done, sir.
It's good news. I tip my hat to you. To helmet. I tip my bike helmet to you. It's good news to get you going.
So Emery was telling us a story last night about how she's got a couple of kids that she goes to school with, and they're often tardy to class because they have to walk their girlfriend Right. To class. And I kinda giggled at that, and I went, that makes me laugh. But in high school, you're like, let me walk you to class. Well, it's the only time you get to spend with each other is in between classes.
You gotta you gotta hustle, and you gotta, like, you gotta, like, five minutes. I did not have a boyfriend in high school, but you had a girlfriend. That is true. I asked a girlfriend. You.
Yeah. Did you walk your girlfriend to class in high school? I'm certain I did because you get those short little moments. And it would probably not have been between every class if it didn't make sense. But, like, if we were in the same hall, between a couple of classes, then, yeah, we probably would like, I'll wait outside your room, and then you come out and be like, hey.
What was class? Like, I don't know. Yeah. I'm sure of it. Now today, in present day, when Emery tells me that, I go, oh, that's so lame.
In high school Yeah. When I would see the boyfriends and girlfriends walk their significant other to class, I'd be like, Yeah. You had that feeling of missing out, didn't you? Wish I had a boyfriend to walk me to class. Wish I had somebody who'd be tardy for me, which which happened if you were like, okay.
Well, hey. I've gotta be, down b Hall, but you're clear over on d. So I'm gonna walk you clear across the school, past the cafeteria, past the gym, past the auditorium, clear to the other hall to drop you off at band so that I can run back to math or Spanish or whatever. That's clear back on the other side of the building. Yeah.
That would happen. What a good boyfriend. And then but then they'd yell at you if you were yelling or running, excuse me, if they'd yell at you if you were running in the hall. So you just had to, like, speed walk. Slow?
No. You had to speed walk. You had to slow run. You had to book it so you could almost get back there before the second bell rang, and then you go, I almost made it. Emery's It's so close.
She's so funny because she she was like, I don't know. People are making out in the hallway all day long. Gross. I think she's got a tinge of jealousy too because Gross. She calls herself a a single Pringle.
That's fine. I know we're like, that's fine. You are 50. Be fine. You don't need a boyfriend.
Yeah. Focus on your class. Yeah. Get out of here. Yeah.
You don't need anybody walking you to class. You can walk your own self to class. Right. Plus, also, you don't need to be walking somebody else to class and have yourself be tardy. Right.
Get to class. What I'm saying. Do other things. See, that's what I that would be the thing I would say all day long if I worked in a school. Go to class.
Get to class. Go to class. Go to class. Why aren't you in your classroom? Go to class.
I did work at a school, and you do say that quite often. I would that's all I would be saying. It was very like, why are you out of class again? Go to class. Get out of here.
But but nope. Go to class. I go I got no be like, who let you out? Yeah. And it was always there was always teachers you could count on that were like, I know what class you're yeah.
I know what class you're from. Out. Yeah. Get to class. Get to class.
That's a that's a that's a sign that needs to hang in every hallway. Multiple signs that just say get to class. They won't read it. And then instead of me getting hoarse saying it so much, I could just point I'll get one of those, finger pointers that look like a cartoon hand. Yeah.
And I'll hit I'll go get to class. Underline. Quit walking your girlfriend to class. Go to class. How often do you think you've been recording a video and I come along and start shitter jittering in your video?
All the time. All the time. What's the percentage do you think? If you're around and I'm recording a video 80 to 90% of the time, and then I'll stop recording and go, well, I'm gonna record that again. Hopefully, it's something I can record again.
What what you need to do is give me kind of a heads up. Is is my phone in my hand? And I'm and I'm doing this? How do I know you're not taking a picture? I don't know if you're taking a video.
Am I silent? You're usually silent when you take a picture. Like this. It's a video. Or maybe do a little screen peek and see if if the red record button is on.
I mean, it's Or is big. Like, or if I hit this, look. You can't miss that. Or you could say, hey. I'm gonna take a video.
Shush your mouth. What if not you're not always right there when I start. Sometimes I'm in the middle of it, and you walk up and go. And I go, alright. Well, so much for that.
Or what what'll really happen is, like, I'll be taking a a video of, like, an event that's happening. And then you'll go, oh, and then this thing and commentary, commentary, commentary. And I go, come on, man. Here's here's the thing. What?
It's usually, when I start to talk, it's never anything that you can post. Yeah. I know. Because it's usually about something Yeah. Are you talking about somebody?
I'm going like, well, so much for that. I'll have to mute it, set it to music. Yeah. You could just set it to music. Sure.
Just do that. People do that all the time. Yeah. But then wouldn't it be nice just to hear the ambiance of the event? Yeah.
I am the ambiance. Yeah. You are. Let me get that on a shirt for you. I am the ambiance.
Look at me. Listen to me. Yeah. I am the ambiance. Thing popped in my head, and I have to say it right now.
I'm the ambiance. Well, the nature was nice, but okay. Go ahead. Filming a bird. Oh, and then you know what else?
Oh, Josh. And I go, well, can't hear that bird song in my video because somebody came in here and yelled all his stuff. The things I have to say are much better sounding than that old bird. I guess. I'll pull up the one that you because that just happened.
It did? Yeah. I was filming a bird singing, and then you were like, oh, look at this, and I don't even know. I'll I gotta listen to what you said. Yeah.
You gotta make sure it's appropriate. You walked up and just started yapping. And I said, oh, are you recording? Yeah. So So I'll start over.
Sorry. Hopefully, the bird doesn't leave before I can recapture that amazing moment that was awesome. Sorry, Josh. That's what I got. It's a whole bunch of videos of, like, really cool things and then, some talking and then me going and hitting stop.
That's I've got a collection of those. The side that gets me. Like, oh, I'm so sorry. I ruined your video. Stop hanging out with me then, I guess.
Josh? Oh, I was on my own. You walked up. I was I was doing my own thing. Yeah.
And then I went, hey. Where's Josh? Yeah. Oh, I gotta go tell him something. I'm gonna go find him.
I'm gonna go tell him all about this thing, and it just popped in my head. I got something to say. Yeah. I'm gonna I'm gonna get a ghillie suit, hide in the trees. I'll find you.
It'll be a little harder than that. I'll find you. I'll just shout your name over and over and over. Yeah. It'll help.
You know that's what I do. I'll find you. I know. At the grocery store. I know.
I've heard it. Why are you painting fingernail polish? Where are you going with this? Why are you painting with fingernail polish? I just had to studio?
I know. Listen. Shh. I just had to paint my toes really quick this morning because when I I wore some sandals yesterday, and I went, oh, honey. These What?
Toes are bad. And so this morning, I said Who sees them? Well, anybody who looks down at my feet if I'm wearing open toed shoes. Who looks at your feet? People do.
When? Why? Alright. Go on. So this morning, I said, oh, I gotta I gotta grab some fingernail polish so that I can I can do a quick touch up on my toes?
Sure. Here's the thing about my toes. I have short little knobby toes. You have you have tiny little toes. You have tiny little feet.
And the toenail on these tiny little knobby toes Especially the pinky toe. Yeah. There's no toenail. No. It's basically nonexistent.
It's a grain of rice. It's a grain of rice might be bigger. It's the tiniest little toenail. And so I was painting them this morning doing a little touch up because, they need some work. Yeah.
Am I I just kinda guess where the pinky toe toenail is? You know that, audio, the I'm oh, look. A strawberry. That's your toe. Like that.
That's your tiny little strawberry toe. I really just had to guess where it was, and I've been doing that my whole life. I just kind of take the the fingernail painting brush, and I go, right there. Like, I've got some on the skin. Of course.
But How could you not? It's a grain of rice. No. They're They're so cute. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's isn't it funny? Genetics are weird, aren't they? I don't know.
Where do you think that comes from? I don't know. I think it comes from my mom because my mom has toes like this. I don't think so. You don't?
Nope. Nope. No. Okay. Alright.
I didn't I do your intensity surprises me? It shouldn't. So that's that. My pinky toe and the toe beside it are one toe. They're friends?
They are not oh, they're They're are they they're not webbed, are they? No. No. Just checking. No.
They're not. I didn't know if you had duck feet. But but they are they are besties. Well, good. So even trying to separate them, I'm like, I guess I'm just painting the whole toe.
What? Because I don't know where the toenail is on this toe or the toenail on that toe. So I just guess. Cute. This looks like the tip.
I guess color did you go with? Purple. Oh, good. Why? I it's fine.
What's the matter with that? There's nothing wrong with that. The the thing I take issue with is just the smell. I know. I'm sorry.
Like, it's bad anytime of day, but first thing in the morning, it's real awful. Like, it's a terrible way to kick off the day. I understand, but I didn't have time to last night, and I didn't have time this morning before work, and so I just grabbed it out the door. Why does it gotta smell like that, though? I don't know.
Why can't they make, and then maybe they do make unscented, scent free, or nice smelling? Like, why does it have to be so potent? Mhmm. And then the remover is just as bad. The remover is really bad, and the remover will take off lacquer.
What? Okay. How often do you do that, and how did you find that out? Well, I had some on a cotton ball. Uh-huh.
And I thought I had it on, like, a tray. Oh. But I didn't, and I put it right on the table. The coffee table or the kitchen table? And it took off.
So both. And it took This is a lesson you've learned more than once. Yeah. Alright. Very good.
I was trying to remember what you did the other day that embarrassed Emery. Now it's not difficult to embarrass her. She's 15. So Sure. Everything is embarrassing.
But what I think I'm trying to remember, we went to get a treat, and, normally, we have our jobs in the car. Your job is to order because you're typically driving. Right. And my job is to get out the credit card to pay. That's right.
And and, usually, you're right on top of that, and you've got it, like, in my hand before I even finished ordering. Like, you're like, here it is. And I go, hold on to it for just a minute. I'm not quite ready. But I got up to the window, and we were chatting in the car, and things were happening.
We got up there, and, we hadn't pulled out the the card to pay. And I went, oh. And so I just I just while I was grabbing my wallet and you were looking for your purse, I went, we we normally have this out. Sorry. And I grabbed it, and I handed him the card.
That was the whole interaction. And he goes, okay. Here you go. Here's your card and your receipt. Have your stuff right out.
And in the back seat is, oh. Don't do that. And I'm like, what did I do? What did I even do? You don't have to explain yourself.
What? All I did was apologize that normally we're on top of this and ready because I know, like, you wanna keep your drive through time down. Do you want things flowing? Yeah. You I've I'm now putting extra time into your system because of my lack of preparation.
So that's I'm apologizing. That's a nice thing to do, I thought. But, apparently, I shouldn't have to explain myself. I should just go see. Here's my card.
Thank you for my items. I'll be going now. I Oh, my god. Ew. Yeah.
Ew. You're so One of my favorite things to do. And I do this not because it it upsets her or makes her embarrassed. I do it because it makes me happy. I will refer to people by their name if they're wearing a name tag, and that is the worst thing in the whole wide world.
She hates that so much. And I go, oh, you got a name tag on. Thanks, Amy. And she goes, what? Why are you saying her name?
Why are you saying her name? Like, she has a name tag on. You do that on the phone too. Yeah. And then that's not quite as embarrassing because we're not in person.
But if somebody's like, hey. It's, you know, Chantel. How can I help you? Yeah. Go, oh, hey, Chantel.
Here's what I need. Right. And she'll be like, you can hear her. What are you saying your name? You don't know her.
If I call or or if somebody calls me or, and I get a call I don't know or it's a, you know, to set an appointment or something and they answer the phone and such and such office, this is Abigail, whatever, I'll I'll work really hard to remember that person's name so I can thank them at the end of the phone call. Oh. It's just That's nice. Well, I try. It doesn't happen all the time because sometimes I forget because I'm terrible with names, but I try.
And, so I'll go, okay. Thanks, Abigail. Have a good day. And and, yeah, that's just too much. You're doing too much.
You you don't have to do that. Stop saying people's names. Stop being polite. Yeah. It's not even considerate.
Ew. Gross. Right? Like, okay. Ow.
Yeah. Yeah. Suck around. Bad. Yeah.
Easy. Just trying to be a friendly human being. That's all. It's too embarrassing I know. Man.
Yeah. Sorry I didn't have my card out. I'll just not apologize for it ever again. My bad. You don't have to explain yourself.
Stupid. Just don't say anything. I would like to know I want some rules on how we're supposed to behave as her parents. The teenager's rules to parenting in society? Yeah.
What? To parent parental interactions in society. Yeah. If we do, that would be the least embarrassing thing to not exist. We we would stay in the house and not make a sound or have any enjoyment in life.
We wouldn't dance or be excited about anything. We wouldn't laugh at a show, the things we thought were funny. We would just be silent and unseen. It's pretty. And then she'd be like, this is the perfect life.
Yeah. She would. Just give me all your money quietly. Yeah. Yeah.
And I'll be happy. Right. Exactly. Yeah. That's what teenagers want.
Just don't be around. I like when I'm in the store and there's a song that comes on the radio Yeah. Or on the The speakers or whatever. Yeah. That I like or it makes me wanna, like, move.
Sometimes I'll dance in the aisles, and she, like, is gone. Yeah. Later, dude. Ouch. I'm gonna go over here by the yogurt.
See you. Yeah. Sometimes I'm like, how fast can I get her to run away? I should start timing it. It's not hard.
Nope. It's just not. But it is a lot of fun. Yeah. I mean, we we've earned this right.
Absolutely. Yeah. She was a terrible baby. Well, no. I know with Nat.
I just mean that, you know, you raise her. It's, it's your right as a parent to embarrass. The amount of time she has kept me up at night Yeah. It is my right to embarrass her. Pay back.
It's fine. That's what I'll say from now on. She goes, you don't have to explain yourself. Yes. I do because we raised you.
What does that even mean? Thank you, Abigail. You might have already heard this story, but, I wanna talk about it. So a Florida man was gored by a bison in Yellowstone Okay. Over the weekend.
I did hear this story, and, of course, it was a Florida man, which Florida man is its own news section. Like, Florida has open police reports Uh-huh. With all the details, names, incidents, everything. Like, their police records are completely open. And that's why you hear Florida man, a Florida man did this.
A Florida man did this. So this was a Florida man who was visiting Yellowstone. This was just the other day. Sunday. Sunday.
Yep. So was in Yellowstone. At Mammoth Hot Springs. The Mammoth area. Yeah.
In the Lake Village area of the park. Got too close to a bison crew. He got too close, and, he sustained minor injuries, was treated on-site. Okay. This is the first reported bison related injury this year.
And it will not be the last. It will not be the last. But I don't know how many times you can tell people. Don't go near the animals. See that large wild animal that has horns?
Right. It's going to attack you. So stop. Here's what they recommend. I'm just reading through this article.
This is, is at East Idaho News Dot Com, by the way. Two reported incidents last year, one in twenty twenty three. So let's let's let this Florida man be the only one this year. It's taken care of. No one else has to let this happen.
Learn from the Florida man and keep your space. That's a big deal. And I know that we talk about this, and there are local residents that hear it and they go, I know. We don't go near it. It's not the local residents that go, hey.
I should go stand by that. It's not a Saint Anthony couple was a was too close to a bison. It's it's it's someone from not in the area. Do you think if Idahoans go to Florida Gators. Yeah.
There's always, like, reports in Florida. Like, an Idaho man was attacked by a crocodile. I'm sure. I'm sure of it. Because, my understanding that is if there is water, there's crocodiles in it.
Yeah. Like, it it's a pool, there's a chance there's a crocodile. Get out of here, though. I'm not getting close to a crocodile. Are you insane?
I've I've seen videos of people walking trails and stuff in the, the Everglades, and that's what it's called. Right? Yeah. And they're walking, and there's just, crocodiles and alligators and stuff just hanging out, resting on the side of the trail. And you walk by and they go Yeah.
Did I? And you I'd be like, no. I'm not going down this trail. What are you doing? Distance, bud.
Yeah. So here's what it says. It says wild animals can be aggressive if people do not respect their space. It is the responsibility of the human to stay more than twenty five yards away from all large animals, bison, elk, bighorn sheep, deer, moose, coyotes, and at least 100 yards away. That's a whole football field away from bears and wolves.
If wildlife approach you, move away to maintain these safe viewing distances. But how am I gonna get my buffalo selfie? We were in Yellowstone last summer, and we were driving down the road. Yeah. We saw a bear up on a hill.
Yeah. The young bear. Slowly like, we drove past. Nope. The guy behind us stopped.
Yeah. Held up all the traffic. We saw him setting up a tripod. Yeah. They're like, dude.
Get out of here. Stopped in the middle of the road blocking traffic forever. Like, just keep moving. Look at it with your eyeballs and keep on moving. Mhmm.
Keep on moving. There's a million pictures of bears. We don't need yours. Also, when it comes to bison, they will defend their space when threatened, says the article. They have injured more people in Yellowstone than any other animal, and they are unpredictable and can run three times faster than humans.
So don't think you're gonna be able to move it. No. You're not gonna be able to. So, anyway, just look. I, again, I say, I know it's not an issue with locals, but it's a great reminder.
And if you have family visiting over the summer, and Yellowstone's on the list, don't get your buffalo selfie. Exactly. Just don't. You're gonna be fine. From a distance, look and then carry on.
But what about my bison selfie? You don't need a bison selfie. Photoshop yourself. I am to it. Yeah.
Anyway, stop it. That's the big deal. Be safe. If you wanna read more about the story, east idaho news dot com has it. And, you're welcome for the reminder to stay away from the bison and the bears and the coyotes and the snakes and the eagles and all the other stuff.
It's not a zoo. It's the wild West. Guess what I just learned? What did you just learn? I just learned that I might be, an attractive guy.
I've told you this for twenty years. Listen. It's not that I'm trying to I'm not asking for compliments. I'm not trying to be down on myself or whatever. Are you fishing right now?
Not at all. No. I wish I were fishing. Wouldn't that be great? Fishing for compliments.
No. Fishing for fish. According to this new survey that was just released, I don't know who did this thing. It doesn't matter. Apparently, women are attracted to bald guys.
I am. With big muscles. Yes. I don't have big muscles. Josh, when you chop wood, we talked about this yesterday.
Yeah. Chopping wood. Yeah. And you watch like a creep. This this survey found that the number one trait that women, like is a muscular physique.
Is this true? I mean Number one, top of the list, muscular physique. I'm I don't know. Okay. Second, I mean, look.
I'm not gonna be offended because I'm I'm a little lump. I get it. You're not a lump. That's fine. Stop it.
Number two on the list, a bald head. Yeah. I'm a the next most desired feature in men. Interesting. A bald head.
Muscular physique and a bald head. I I'm trying to think when I look. I look at eyes. Okay. Like, kind eyes.
I suppose most people have those. Smiles. Kind eyes? Eyes. No.
Eyes. Yeah. Yeah. Most people have eyes, but not everyone has kind eyes. I see.
When it came to bald heads, it it was, top of the list. Second was dark curly hair, and blonde haired men was third. See, that's interesting. I don't I'm not prone to curly hair. Okay.
What? They say that baldness is connected with positive traits like maturity Oh. Intelligence Oh. Honesty Look at you. And education.
Look at you, Josh. So I just, you know, I just thought that was important. It's a it's a a muscular build and then a bald head. Check-in check. Yeah.
Here's the thing that sort of bums me out, and I was I was trying to figure this out. I I yesterday and the day before, I was looking at I was just scrolling through videos and stuff, and I saw, the rockabilly trend. It's a you know, like, the fifties rock and roller type stuff. Like the greasers? Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. There are still there are people today that, like, that's their entire look. Right. And that's their entire life.
And, like, in Japan, there are rockabilly, like, subcultures Okay. That will go out on the street in the garb, and they do, like, dances and stuff. Like, they they'll go to parks, and they put on fifties music, and they just, rock and roll to it. K. Yeah.
It's kind of like a whole subculture. So I was watching some of this, and I was like, what did bald guys look like in the fifties? Because if you can't do the pompadour, what do you do? Were there ball greasers? And I can't find I can't find anything.
The only thing that I could find was I gotta I gotta find it again. Was Joel Brenner. Joel Brenner. That's it. That's the only thing.
And and he's the guy was like, alright. That's cool. Google bald nineteen fifties, and look what comes up. Do it. Because you get Joel Brenner.
That's the one positive. Every other image you're gonna get, you're gonna go, nope. Oh. Nope. Nope.
Nope. Okay. Nope. It's one nope after another. Joel Brenner is the only thing that was Hey, though.
Joel Brenner I told you. That's it. Like, Joel Brenner was the nineteen fifties top tier bald man. I only know Yul Brynner from the king and I. Okay.
But I haven't seen I haven't seen any of these pictures of Yul Brynner, but now I'm like Yeah. Hey. What's up, brother? Muscular build bald guy. Yeah.
But every other bald man on here is a comical bald man. Every single one of them is a goof. So because I was like, if I wanted to do, like, a nineteen fifties, like, cool fashion thing, what were what would be my options? My options are Yule Brenner or Wig. That's it.
So, anyway, bald is apparently beautiful. It is. Embrace it. Wasn't in the fifties. No.
But it is now, Josh. Oh, is it? Yeah. Okay. Only if I do the Joel Brenner look today.
It's still that same look. Yeah. It's still pretty good. I'm not opposed. Alright.
10 out of 10. Chill out. You chill out. How fast can you run a mile? At full speed.
How fast? How long will it take you to run a mile? Three days. Three days? Josh, I don't run.
You know this. But how how okay. Listen. The current record for, women, the world record for a woman to run the, the mile is held by Faith Kippie Yagan, and it is four minutes seven point six four seconds. Dude.
I know. This summer big. Yeah. Faith, this summer, hopes to become the first woman in human history to run the mile in under four minutes. She's an animal.
I know. She'll be running June 26 in Paris, and and that is something you can put on your calendar because she's gonna try and do it and break the women's world record and run the mile in less than four minutes. She currently holds the record at four minutes seven point six four seconds. I think she can do it. She's gotta shave off, like, almost eight seconds to hit below four minutes.
I think she can do it. That's fast. I have every confidence in her. That is very fast. It's a fast mile.
Good job to that lady. Three days. Guess what? I'm gonna be sitting, not running. Maybe you, could try.
What how how fast? Fifteen minutes? Sure. Maybe. Fifteen minute mile?
This is kind of cool. The greater sage grouse? Okay. The sage grouse are fun to watch. Okay.
And they also sound like little motorcycles trying to start. Me too. They, there's a big I don't know what you call them. Like, if it's a murder of crows and a herd of cattle, what would a what a A group of grouse? Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. A group of grouse is called a covey. Okay. They use the same thing as, as, what's that little bird?
The the covey up? What's that little bird called? I don't know. Okay. What is it called?
I don't know. I'm gonna continue on with my story because I don't know. Nuts. Okay. So the sage grouse, typically in, Grand Teton National Park K.
They mate in an area that's located near the Jackson Hole Airport. And they are declining pretty rapidly because there's lots of of accidents with the airplanes and the sage grouse during mating season. Interesting. So the National Park, service teamed up with the Teton Raptor Center and the Jackson Hole Middle School art students, and they have created handcrafted paper mache birds Okay. To act as decoy birds that will encourage the real life birds to relocate their mating displays and hopefully move their mating area away from the airport so that they Interesting.
Survive. Yeah. Isn't that kind of interesting? It is interesting. And I'm looking at some pictures of these, paper mache birds.
They're pretty amazing. The bird I was looking for is bobwhite. Oh, yeah. Yeah. You're right.
Anyway, covey, is the is is what a group of them is called. So they're trying to relocate the Covey action. Correct. I see. They're yeah.
Because they mate in their area that Yeah. Is unsafe. They often get hit by airplanes. Yeah. Well, I'm glad they're doing something about it.
I think that's smart. That's great. That's good to hear because they're, they're they're really cool. I hope the decoy birds work. And if you've never seen them in the wild, those sage grouse, when they're doing their, doing their dance and stuff and popping out of the out of the, the foliage and stuff, it's wild.
We had some friends Yeah. Who woke up early to go see the displays of them. Yeah. And it was they sent us some video. It was pretty cool.
I actually strut too, which you could you could sing that song if you like. Strutting my way out. I don't know what to use. That's a great song. It is exciting.
Could you could, show off your strut as a, sage grouse. They're very fun. Anyway Here's hoping the decoys work. I know. Fingers crossed for you.
Can we talk a little bit about, AI and how people use it? Sure. This lady, I I just read, an article here. She, says that she quit her job because ChatGPT told her to, which I think is an interesting decision. But here's the deal.
She, she was talking about her toxic work environment, and she said she's underpaid and underappreciated for years. And the stress was affecting her mental and physical health. And so she was she got another project dumped on her at work, and she was like, are you serious? I feel like I'm at my limit. So she, left her desk, went to the restroom.
She used her phone, asked chat g p t what she should do. And according to what she wrote in this article, she said, here's what AI said. Drop the project. Stop working. You've already exceeded your capacity.
You've given explicit warnings and been ignored. Continuing rewards their dysfunction and punishes you. So let the consequences fall where they belong. Your health is not collateral for bad leadership. Walk away from the task now.
Leave early. You've already worked through breaks and picked up extra tasks. Log your hours as full. Do not ask. Do not announce.
Just go. That's what AI told her to do. So she did. She said something clicked when I read it. I grabbed my stuff and I left.
Now I have no more details on the story. I don't know how anything has played out since. I don't know if that was the right decision. I don't know anything other than she'd had enough. She said, hey.
What should I do? And because it knew enough about her, because, obviously, she's used it and asked it other questions before Yeah. It said enough's enough. So she said, okay. I'm out.
That's terrifying to me. A little bit. To quit something before you have something in place. I understand that. Yeah.
But maybe, maybe Chad GPT will hire her. I don't know. Yeah. Maybe she's got some work done. She's like, okay.
Now that I did that, what's my next step? Now what do I do, Chad GPT? Chad GPT is that, like, great. To update your resume and apply online. Like, oh, I don't know.
Holy moly. Yeah. But I think that's pretty interesting. And and, and now that's helping, people make decisions. So there's that.
Okay. I don't know if that's what it's necessarily intended for. Right. No. I I don't think that's the the it's you know, I feel like it's more of a research tool than anything.
Yeah. But, you know, this lady is using it to make giant personal decisions in her life. So Yikes. Go you. Not recommended.
Do not recommend. Yeah. That's that's wild. But good luck to her. Hope it all works out.
