Sleep tight, homies. We are Josh and Chantel. This is wake up classy 97, the podcast on demand. On demand. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Hey. Enjoy today's show. Hi there.
Hey. Good morning. What's up? Hi. Why does your voice sound all weird?
I was making it sound weird. Hey. It's not. Good morning. No.
It's just Hello. You don't like it? No. Just do normal voice. What's normal voice?
That. This. Yep. Not this. No.
Not this. No. I like your normal voice. Alright. Thanks.
Yeah. Okay. Use your radio voice. What's that mean? That's what people tell you about.
It's really funny. And I would say, like, I just talk. We we just sit here and talk. This is just me. This is just me talking.
This is just me talking. That's right. Oh, that was not this is just me. This is just me talking. Yeah.
This is just me Nice call. Yeah. Cool. Collected. Just me.
Uh-huh. I think what happens is, between the microphone and the mic processor that's in here, to make to make it sound clean and clear and crisp. Yeah. And it also, helps eliminate some of the noise in between. Like, when I stop talking, there's just silence.
You don't hear, like, I I have to, like, exaggerate my breathing in order for you to hear all of that. So I think what what when people go use your radio voice, I go, well, I don't have a voice processor and a microphone On hand. To just speak to you through. But this is just my voice. But I could.
Mm-mm. No? Mm-mm. Just immediately. No.
Mm-mm. What's wrong with that guy? I don't I don't like it. He sounds like a cool guy. Hey.
What's going on today? Anything cool? Anything fun? You would ask. I would ask, and I did ask.
Before I even got prepared. Let's see. Bring flowers to somebody day to day. Chocolate chip day. Uh-huh.
Peace officer memorial day. Those are kind of the top three. Okay. Those are all really important and good. Somebody bring me chocolate chips and flowers.
Chocolate chip cookies and flowers. I'll I'll take both. Not two birds out with one stone, as they say. Yeah. It said bring flowers to someone, not ask someone to bring flowers to you.
I know. I'm just reminding people that they can bring me stuff. I see. So I see. So Okay.
Well, I think that's pretty much what's up. Okay. Let's get started with the day. I guess so. Yeah.
Is it? Thursday? It is it is Thursday. Yes. Let's kick it off.
Alright. Let's let's go. If I say to you like, you say I ask you You say I ask you if I say Yeah. Where are we going? We've gone three different directions in five seconds.
I don't know how to present it. Alright. Okay. I'll just say, my day is a win if dot dot dot. Okay.
How would you answer that? If I feel productive at work, if I get if I get my tasks done, that that helps my day be a win. I would say my every like, my majority of my days. Right? Five days a week, I'm here.
K. If I if I accomplish, strong things at work, if I don't feel like I was, like, I really slacked today, that's a big part. Okay. And then I would say, if if, the people around me, my family and and coworkers and friends, have have good attitudes and it's a bright day, that's a good win. I would say if I don't have, like, a lot of drama to deal with, that always makes for a better day.
K. And then myself. If I if I feel bright and sunny, I would say that's probably a big deal too. Right? I think that's probably like, those attitude and productivity.
If I can meet good attitude and good productivity in a day, that's a win Okay. Good job. On a majority of my weekdays. Now on a weekend, that's a whole different deal because there's there's plenty to to do and and ex expect of myself and, you know, outside of work. And I feel like I'm not accomplishing enough out there, but I don't wanna talk about it because it's depressing.
Okay. I have to walk through it. Are you gonna ask me? Oh, I just assumed you'd chime in. Oh, no.
It's a two way conversation. Is it? Yeah. That felt one-sided. So that's when you would say, well, for me For me Yeah?
Thanks for asking. I It's your question. My day is when when I feel like I've had good interactions with you and the kids. Yeah. Because not every day has great interactions.
Sure. Like, sometimes the kids are moody. Sometimes they wanna be left alone. Mhmm. Sometimes you're too busy doing your own thing, and we don't we just cross paths like ships in the night.
K. So my days and I work is work. Productive or not. That's that doesn't make my day a win or a loss. It is if I have good interactions with my four pack.
Okay. That's what I call my family. No. I know that. So yesterday was a win for me.
Oh, good. Yesterday was a great day. We had some good conversations. We Mhmm. Emery and I had some Nutella toast.
That's fun. It was fun. And talked about the tea. Oh. So those are those are weird for me.
Tea going on? Oh, there's always tea going on. Wouldn't you like to know? No. Again, I'll go back to when I said, if there's not a lot of drama No.
There wasn't there wasn't much drama. Okay. Well, good question, though. Yeah? Yeah?
Okay. Good job. Let's have a let's have a day full of wins today. Yeah. Making a win.
Make today a win. Make today a win. Get that gold medal. Okay. Or a gold star.
If it's just even a gold star today. Gold speaking of gold stars, I had a coworker the other day who came in and said she had a gold star from her chiropractor. And I said, what? What's that mean? I said, how do you get a gold star from your chiropractor?
And she said, well, he said that I moved really well today. Oh, gold star. Yeah. I never get a gold star for my chiropractor. What?
That's about to change, isn't it? Right. Is it? Maybe I'll bring my own gold stars. And when I do something good, I'll be like That's right.
Gold star to me. Perfect. That's how you can judge if you're having a good day. And then if you got gold star day. Gold stars.
People will say, what'd you do? Like Oh, man. So much? Wouldn't you like to know? And this one I got because my chiropractor said my back moved good.
Yeah. And this one I got because I loaded my own cart back to the the thing. Yeah. Exactly. This gold star is because I held a door open for someone.
There you go. Gold star date. How about some good news to get you going this morning? Let's hear it. This is a story about Tom Maniscalco.
Tom? What'd you do, Tom? Tom is 85 years old. Tom has earned a master's degree in engineering and has become the oldest graduate ever at Rutgers University. How old is he?
85. 80 five. Tom? Yeah. He retired in 2019 after working a lifetime as an engineer, and he found himself wondering what he would do next.
And though the years, through the years, he had earned degrees from other universities, but Rutgers held a special place in his heart because it was his father's dream for him to graduate from there. Tom said, I don't know what to do with myself. So I applied to Rutgers, and they accepted me as a special student. He was able to take classes remotely, which allowed him to enroll in, one with every new semester, and now he's accomplished his mission that began decades ago. He said it's some closure because my father sent me to Rutgers to get a degree in mechanical engineering, which I was never able to achieve, and now I'm back where I started.
That's awesome. Yeah. 85 years old. He has earned his master's degree in engineering and the oldest graduate ever at Rutgers University. Way to go, Tom Maniscalco.
Way to follow your dream or your dad's dream or someone's dream, but, hey. We're gonna do something spectacular with yourself. Very, very cool. And a nice little graduation story. There's plenty of them going around.
Yes. There is. I know, I know people are getting certificates and, things and diplomas and big degrees and all that stuff is happening right now. So, congratulations to all those folks. That's awesome.
And, Tom, you're one of them too. Good job, bud. Yeah. Way to go. Good news to get you going.
Quick. Name your favorite thing at the farmer's market. Tacos. Okay. Okay.
Good pick. Alright. So so food trucks. Yes. They got that.
What's your favorite thing at the you know, I kinda like wander in the booths. I like some of the the smells that you get from some of, like, the handmade soaps and stuff. I like that, whatever that earthy smell is that comes through. Okay. I'll I enjoy that.
That is nice. Some of those essential oil smells that that waft up. I'm I'm a big fan of that. Yeah. And also all of the little doggos.
There's lots and lots and lots of dogs. I'd love to be able to take ours. She's just she would lose her mind. Yeah. She's a psycho.
She would be so overstimulated. It would be chaos. It would be complete chaos. But I'm gonna be at the Farmer's Market on Saturday. So, I'm gonna get to smell some of those smells, maybe eat some of those tacos maybe.
Yeah. I think I'll stop by. You you do? And pay a visit. Okay.
That sounds nice of you. Thanks. I'm gonna be hanging out there from nine until noon, and there's some cool things going on at the Farmers Market. There's over a 70 vendor booths, which is really awesome. Huge.
That it's a ton. It's more than last year, and last year was more than the previous years. It has grown into quite the thing, and it it spans all the way from Broadway to the roundabout on Memorial. It's just packed in there, which is so cool. So, you can wander through and check out all those booths.
And then, you can stop by the Riverbend Media Group, booth on Saturday, and you can make a donation of nonperishable food items to help out the community food basket. That's awesome. Yeah. They do have some requested items, some not requested, some of their most needed items. Yes.

And you're gonna stop by? Yeah. I can stop by. That'd be nice of you. I don't know if I'll be there at nine because that's kinda it's kinda early.
It's kinda rude. Kinda early for a Saturday. I mean, I'll be there, but I know you will. That's fine. That's okay.
Alright. I'll be up way before that. No. I know. There's prom stuff.
I gotta be, like, on top of stuff. I'm gonna be busy on Saturday. Yeah. You have an earlier call time than I do. Yeah.
The, the yeah. Like, all day. You get to show up and be pretty at the dance. Yeah. Yeah.
That's yep. That's my requirement. I've gotta do all the other stuff. Sorry, bud. No.
You're not. I'm kinda not. No. You're not at all. I found out.
I feel like when I purchase groceries, it is for everyone to use. Everyone can eat it. Unless there's something I'm like, hey. Don't eat this. This is for like, I I'm taking this for a recipe or oh, okay.
I'm using this for a or I'm making this for somebody else. Like, don't eat this. That doesn't typically happen too often Right. That I need to do that. Well but also because, like, people don't go rifling through the fridge.
And, typically, if I see something that looks like an ingredient, I'm not just gonna grab, like, I don't know, a can of beans for lunch, for example. That's an ingredient. But Yeah. If you mix it with rice Right. And then it's fine.
And then it's delicious. Dinner meal. Anyway, the my point was, like, the kids will not rifle around and try to find something. If it's not in plain sight, they're not gonna Right. Be bothered to eat it.
But there are times when everyone will say, hey. Can I have this yogurt? I'm like, yes. Ah, yeah. The food is for every it Right.
Food is to be consumed. Right. I bought food to put in the fridge for people to eat. I want you to eat it. I don't wanna throw it away.
Yeah. Eat the yogurt. Right. Okay. I didn't.
And she would, okay. I didn't know. Like, if I need to keep it for something, I will tell you. Don't eat this. Right.
I found out she asked me for her favorite cereal. She wanted Tricks. Tricks. She hasn't had tricks in a long time. Right.
She said, can we get some tricks? And I said, yes. I will get you some tricks. And she got so mad because Beck had been eating her cereal. And I said, well I was home when the I've been I've been around when this happened, but I was home the other day when she had had enough.
I said, the food is for everyone. Right. It's not just your box of Trix. Correct. And to be fair, I didn't buy I don't No.
We buy the big bag. I buy the malt o meal. Right. You get way more for less money. And it tastes the same.
Right. So she got mad about that. She said, well, I asked for it. Yeah. I know.
But guess what? There is more tricks at the store. When we run out, I will go get more tricks. What's the big deal? She really wants to ration it and have it available when she wants it.
And every time she picks up the bag and it's a little bit lighter, she has a bit of a panic attack. Come apart. Yeah. Like, she pulled it out of the pantry the other day after school to make a bowl of cereal as you do after school. Yeah.
And, and she went well, I mean, just all the air came out. She told me. She was very angry. She told me she did. She said she was gonna hide it.
I don't know. Right? She told me she did. I think she hid it in her room. I think you're right.
Which I found out. She likes to eat popcorn Yeah. As a snack too. And Is that hiding in her room as well? Said, hey.
Did you guys know that, like, there's I cleaned out the pantry the other day, and I don't think they knew that there was two bags of popcorn in there. Because, again, if you have to look for it No. It's if it's not right in front of you, it doesn't exist. And if it's out of the box, which there was two bags left, and so I threw the box away. So they didn't know there was popcorn.
Were just sitting loose? Yeah. Yeah. No. That's that's never gonna be never gonna find it.
So I said, did you guys know that there's two bags of popcorn in the pantry? And she said, no. But I have my stash of popcorn, and I've got some popcorn in my stash. My stash. Your stash?
And she goes, yeah. I saved some because Beck was eating it all. So I I grabbed some bags and stuck it in my room. So I don't know. She's got She's got a whole pantry.
She's She has a whole pantry in her room. She's got a stash of food in her bedroom. Don't eat all the food. I wonder what else she has. We should go I should go rummage through.
I should I should go rummage through. I should I should go rummage through. I bet it's a laundry basket worth of food. And that's why she kicks up the dog every day. Right.
Because the dog wants to go in. It's like this. It smells like a pantry in here. Yeah. There's a pantry in here.
Crazy kid. Because I know she's she had jerky. Like, anything that was, like, a track snack Is I'm sure is in that. In her. That's correct.
It was purchased for me for track, so that means all the jerky It's it's nice. And all these all these granola bars, that's all going in my room. These are my snacks. This is mine. I don't want anyone else to eat.
Very protective and territorial about her food. It's pretty funny. She's not starving by any means. No. So I don't know why she's like, no.
The system See, the other thing is that there are times when she doesn't wanna eat what we make, and she'll go like, I'm not hungry. And then she'll leave, and then she's going to her own pantry. You're right. And she's finding popcorn and granola bars and whatever else and bowls of cereal. And she probably has a mini fridge in there.
I'm sure she does. She doesn't. But Why would you be surprised? They both want that. I'm like, we have a fridge in the kitchen.
We have two fridges. Yeah. We have a garage fridge. And a deep freezer. What do you need another fridge for?
What the heck? They're so weird. What's something that you tried once and then said never again? I'll go first. Okay.
Snowboarding. Yeah. That is something you, you didn't even really give it a full effort. I'm gonna say it. Are you serious?
Gonna say it. I give it a much full effort. I'm gonna say you gave it you gave it effort, but I don't think you gave it a full effort. Bro, that makes me so mad at you. Listen.
I knew I know. I know what I'm I know what I'm saying because I was also working with Beck at the same time. No. You weren't. Not the first time.
Not the first time. The first time we went to Targhee, and I worked that entire day. I don't count that. That one you put in full effort. That's fine.
I'm talking about you count that? I'm talking about when I took you to a much smaller mountain, and tried to take you to where I grew up snowboarding, and, and you didn't like the lift so much. No. And so, and I was working with Beck at the same time and needed to be on the lift with him. And we got to the top, and you were not behind us.
No. Because I was prepared to help catch you as you got off the lift. And then we finally made it back down to the bottom, and you were standing there. I'm good. I'm done for the day.
Yeah. Have fun. And therefore did not give it a full effort. Because I had already given it a solid, solid effort the first time. So I've actually tried that thing twice.
Okay. Once. Granted, I will give you that I didn't try it that second time for sure because that's when I had already knew that I hated it so much. But I gave it a solid effort on that first time. Don't even say I didn't.
That's fine. I worked my butt off that day. How I feel about Targhee. Targhee is a great hill for skiers. It eats me alive every time I go, And it's just a different mountain.
But I was on the Bunny Hill the whole day. You you're correct. But it was that's a that's much more of a bunny hill than what you're gonna get at, like, Kelly Canyon or, Pebble or Palmorel or whatever. So, Stupid. It's stupid having a board strapped to your foot.
It's not. Yes. It is. How do you you're supposed to walk? How are you supposed to get on a chairlift?
I've been doing it for years. Supposed to get off a chairlift. It is dumb. Right. And I hate it, and I'm not ever doing it again.
And the first time that we went, when we did go to Target, the first time you went and I've been doing this since I was 12. I've been doing this for a long time. So I'm I'm able to help you. I was able to focus. We didn't have Beck wasn't wasn't snowboarding with us, so it was just you and me able to focus.
Your sister was there. She was skiing. Mhmm. And you've said, maybe I should try that. Maybe.
Maybe I'd be better and more comfortable with that because my feet wouldn't be stuck together. I would be able to move them independently, which sounds like a disaster. No. I, I hate snowboarding so, so much. Is it the fact that it's cold outside?
Yes. Is it because there's snow? It's part of it. Is it because of the lift? No.
It's honestly because I don't like that stupid board strapped to my foot. It is so dumb. When you're trying to move around with it hooked to one. Yes. Okay.
So what I would say is we should look at a different setup for you. No. I don't Listen to me. The whole this Because they make they make step in bindings that you don't have to feel like you're strapped to it the whole time. You do have to be strapped to it when you get in line for the lift and when you get on the chair and when you get off the chair and, obviously, when you're riding down.
But then you could just unclick it, and you'd be free to roam about. And you would feel more like you weren't attached to it dragging it around. Listen. The topic of this conversation is what's something you tried once and said never again? Yeah.
But then you decided to try it. What? You just we we got so stuck on this one thing, and it's important that we that we talk about No. Because I'm done. I'm done.
What's something you tried and said never again? I really don't know. I'm trying to think. I mean, I've I'm I'm, like, trying to go through, like, hobbies. Are there things that I was like, I'm gonna do this, and then I tried it and went, no.
I'm not gonna do that anymore. You have hobbies that you get supplies for, then you never try them. I have hobbies that I am excited about all the time and want to do, but I'm not necessarily always in the right place to do them. Yeah. Because you have gold pants.
That's I knew it. That's what you're gonna talk about. And I I've never been here. Just got it out because I know where we're camping next weekend. Is that next weekend?
Yep. Sweet. And, and so, I'm planning on bringing it to see just to see. Just to see. Okay.
I think great. Use it. You've had that stuff for about fifty years. Not fifteen. Yeah.
Probably. No. I was reading a list of things that people have tried once and then said, nope. Never again. Yeah.
On this list is giving birth. Really? Tried it once. Try it once. Not recommend.
Zero out of five. I would say I know I know something that I did not enjoy. What? I did not enjoy, the confinement of exploring an ice cave. Oh.
I like the lava tubes. I like the big lava tubes. I'm cool in there. But I did not fully enjoy scooting across ice on my belly into an unknown dark castle. No.
That's terrible. And then exploring. It was cool inside. I will say it was neat, to to be in there, but to get in there and to crawl through a tiny little space and then really just hope I'd be able to get out of that space when we got back to it on the way out. I did not care for that.
So you won't do that again? I don't think I will ice cave explore small caves like that again. Okay. Big caves, lava tubes out in the desert, out at, craters, fine. Cool.
I'm good with that. Just not crawling on your brow. I don't like the little small confined I get that. That sounds terrifying. Like and to watch those videos of people doing it, I it it gives me sweaty palms.
I don't like it. Okay. I'm gonna contact the guy that we went with and say, hey. Josh wants to do that again. No.
No. I don't. But thanks for taking me the one time. No. But hey, Josh.
Well, let's just try it a different let's try it another time. I gave it a %. No. But, Josh, let's try it this other time. That's what you do to me.
No. Yes. You do. No. Totally different.
I hate this. You could accomplish. You could be a great snowboarder. You could be a good spelunker. I I spelunk.
I just don't do the little ones. I'm not doing that. It's crazy. People get trapped upside down. Yeah.
That's how I feel about snowboarding. No way. People get trapped for days? Yep. Uh-huh.
Yeah. They do. What since when? Don't know how to take the snowboard off. Trapped.
No. Now I'm trapped in this board forever. No. You're not. Walking all goofy footed.
Nope. Stupid. We talked a couple of days ago about how Emery saw somebody that did not remotely look like you. Right. And you were gonna have a talk with her I did.
And In the car yesterday. Go? It was yesterday on the show, I think, is when we talked about it. And then because I I talked to her about it yesterday when I picked her up from school. No.
I think you're a day. Am I a day off? Yeah. Okay. Well, it's all a blur.
It is better. But no. So I picked her up from school, and I said, I'm surprised that you knew it was me picking you up. And she said, what? And I said, well, I just I don't know if you know what I look like.
And she goes, oh. And then she, told me, he stands like how you stand. And I said, what does that even mean? I said, I don't have a black beard. I don't have orange shorts.
And she's like, you wear bright colors. Okay. Yeah. As I'm wearing tan and olive all the time. And the the gentleman, she said, looked like you had a black beard, was wearing orange shorts, and had glasses.
Yeah. And the only thing that distinguished like, she thought that you guys were the same person because you standed similarly. Right. We stood Stood the same. That I said, space.
And I I said, what is it? And she said, it's just like a cool thing where, like, you're on one foot, but then the other one's, like, crossed in front of it, like, on the toe. And I said, no. I understand. And sometimes I do stand like that, but I don't always stand like that to where you'd be like, that's dad.
What? Anyway. Have you seen those they have little, like, little TikToks where babies go, dad, they're watching a movie or they see and sometimes the dads do look like the person in the movie, but there was there was one I saw the other day. And they were at a store, and there was a there was an ad of The Rock, Dwayne The Rock Johnson. And the baby just kept saying, dad.
Dad. And the mom goes, who who is that? And the dad she showed the dad. The dad had curly red hair. Not even close to the same guy.
No. That's hilarious. I wonder sometimes if our kids just create these images in their minds Of what we look like. Yeah. Look like.
Some sort of caricature of who we are. Yeah. Anyway, I don't I don't think I look like that I look like anybody out on the street. That's interesting. Yeah.
Maybe ask her how you stand. Yeah. Yeah. How do I If you saw somebody at the gas station who looked like me, how would they be standing? And she'll be like, they wouldn't.
They'd be sitting in the car. That's why I don't say it because I can't see them. They're in the car. They don't get out. And, well, the thing was he was wearing orange shorts, and she said dad wears bright colors.
For me, it would be anything that looked like a mom because she was always critiquing my style. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Mom style. Mom drip.
Yeah. Yeah. Looking for mom drip. I'm a mom. That's right.

They for some reason, there's a flap, like a like, not tails, but there's just the way the the back of it is put together and the sides, the the whatever. They sew it together right there. And so you have to unstitch that. And I and so I did that, but it's such a silly thing that they do that. And I don't know why.
That is weird. And it must be, like, because of the way they ship them or something. It helps keep it flat so it doesn't fold up and get wrinkled or something. When they sew pockets in girls' jeans. Jeans.
They do that in my pants too. And then I have to rip the seam out. The ones I'm wearing right now, I had to have you help me do that. I had to rip these pocket seams out. I have two back pockets.
I had to rip out the seams because they made them. They sewed them shut. I don't understand it. Topic for another day. Alright.
But anyway You look great in your suit. It's gonna be awesome. I need to try mine on. I tried it on at the store, but I haven't tried it on with my shoes. And Oh, good.

What was the first concert you ever went to? Well, the very, very, very first concert, I I enjoyed or the very, very, very first concert that I went to because I was invited to go to?
Exactly. Exactly what? Exactly. Like, say both because my first concert was not necessarily one that I enjoyed because I'm not a country music fan. Ah, and yours was, like, the fair.
It was at the Casa County Fair. Yeah. Who'd you see? Toby Keith. Wow.
Okay. I know. And a lot of people would be pretty amazed by that. They'd be excited because they're big Toby Keith fans. I'm not so much a Toby Keith fan.
Playing the Cashew County Fair. Good. Yeah. Must have been pretty early in his career then. Yeah.
It was late nineties because I was Yeah. Nice to meet. Pretty new at that point. Right? Yeah.
Look at me. And then the next year, Neil McCoy came to the Casher County Fair. Uh-huh. Neil McCoy is also a country singer. Okay.
So those were my first concerts. I don't necessarily count those, though. So what do you count as your first concert? I count my first concert. Enjoyed.
One that I actually because I went with my mom to those concerts. Yeah. But one that I picked that I wanted to go to for my own self was Weezer Ah. And Jimmy Eat World Okay. And Tenacious.
So we and when was that? That was in ninety nine two thousand. So Weezer and Jimmy Eat World. Okay. The middle.
Yeah. Alright. And all the others. Alright. That was your your first one you enjoyed.
That's like writing it down. I just the diagram. So around the same time, I got to see Paul Revere and the Raiders. Hey. Hey.
Hey. At what is now the Frontier Center was the Civic at the time. So that's, that was neat. Who'd you go to with I was invited to go with, with a girl and her family. That's fine.
Paul Revere, and the Raiders were wearing the same spandexy tights that they'd been wearing since Cherokee People was a hit. So that was neat, and they were doing a lot of kicking. And then And I was very uncomfortable. The first show that I saw that I was like, now that's a show, was it a little, punk rock venue in Arizona, and it was Goldfinger, Lefty, and Messed. And it was a little punk rock show.
Goldfinger was interesting because they had done the Superman song that was on the Tony Hawk Pro Skater. Oh, the URL Jazz podcast. Was like, yeah. This is cool. So I was really into seeing Goldfinger.
Yeah. That was cool. And they did the, 99 red balloons cover. That was really cool. So that was that was the first time I'd experienced Little punk rocker?
A little mosh pit action. And, the a group of friends that I was with from from Arizona, we all I mean, there were probably six of us or so, and they were like, the whole crowd moves as one thing, and I I learned a little bit that day. Yeah. I the first time I was in a mosh pit, I went to the warp tour, which was like a punk rock kinda festival. Right.
And I was like, mosh pit. Let's get in this. And I fell. Yeah. They'll pick you up.
My friend picked me up. Yeah. You'll get picked up. You can die. Yeah.
Get out of the Get up. I wasn't gonna die. No. They were nice at that punk rock show, but I would have been severely injured because ain't nobody got time to pick people up when you're moshing. No.
No. That's interesting, though. A couple of country shows. I'm trying to think, like, like, other shows that I got to look up got sucked into going and the Raiders because I don't necessarily knew what they sing. Yeah.
I still don't know. Oh, I'll play you some later. You'll enjoy it. It was, it's quite the late nineties show. And look when they were big.
They were big in, like, the sixties. Yeah. Sixties. That was So when did you go see them? In the nineties?
In the nineties. Yeah. In the late nineties. Like, '98, '99. Yeah.
They were probably 50 when you saw them. Maybe. Where they're saying It was it was something. I'm telling you. I was a little frightened.
A lot frightened. A lot frightened. Doing some kicks? Too many kicks. Too many spandex kicks.
Old guys kicking in spandex. Woah, buddy. It was a lot. Watch your hip. It was a lot.
Am I the most annoying person that you know in the whole wide world? Yes. You are. Look with your eyes, not your hands. That's that was the advice we were given as kids.
I figured we would have learned that lesson, but here you are saying, I wanna look at it. I wanna look at it. And I said, okay. Look with your eyes. And then you got all upset, and you did gimme gimme gimme toddler hand.
And then I didn't. And then I held him up as far as I could reach without overextending, often. And then I moved them, in closer range and then did that whole, like, get them. You can grab grab them now, And then, left it sitting on top of the computer monitor, and then finally in a huff, you went, fine. I'll just grab it myself.
So cute and fun. That was so cute and fun. Am I an older brother? Yes? Yeah.
You are. Are you, the baby child? Yes. Doesn't change the fact that you're annoying. No.
That's way, you're annoying. Whether I was the oldest or if I was a baby child? Yeah. Just annoying. I see.

Do you want to play anything with me? I'll play anything you wanna play. I'll watch Star Wars with you. Just please play with me. I just need a sibling friend, please.

Brian is involved, with the esports thing in District 91. Okay. And, and that's that's great. I love that. That's really cool.
It is really cool. Is becoming larger and larger and larger. We, toured ISU, what, a month ago or so? And their esports program there, their team has a a really cool facility. And then I learned they're increasing the facility because of the popularity of the of the program and the team.
That's fantastic. Which I think is really cool. It's a great thing. It's a collegiate thing. You can get scholarships for it.
And I know, like, there's there's all these people going, like, for video games? For playing video games? Like, it is there's strategy involved. There's communication. There's planning.
There's a lot more to it than work and Yeah. There's a way more to it than, oh, you're just playing video games, rotting your brain. And it doesn't matter. Guess what? There's a place for everybody.
Sure. So why not give these kids a place? It's something they're good at. It's something they feel involved in. Why you be in a Yeah.

Not to me, though. Right? No. No. No.
No. Nope. Not with you. I'm taking bobblehead. Are you?
I'm a little dizzy doing that, though. That's what I'm like, you wouldn't I wouldn't be able to read. You wouldn't be able to watch TV. All the time. If you're sitting still, it won't bobble.
But if somebody comes by and bops you on the bobble edge Object's in motion. Stay in motion. In motion. Right? Tell the till it doesn't.
I'd be sitting in the bed watching TV No. Until you came and sat down on the bed, and then it'd be like, hey. Here we go. Bop bop. Right.

You're ready for a body of water any day. What's that mean? You like to swim. I do like to swim. I that's what I know.
We had this conversation twice. Ready for a body of water. Yeah. Oh, anytime. K.
Would you rather this or that? There you go. I have been laughing over here at, one of the funnier things I have ever seen online, and, and I'm very happy about it. There are things you scroll through on TikTok or Reels or Shorts or whatever, videos that you'll come across and you'll go, that is not funny, or that is scripted, or everybody's already doing that trend that's not even funny. I saw one that I had not seen before today, and it's very funny, and it's very casual and natural.
And I bet it catches on as a trend that people will repeat. K. It's a dude. It's it's the evening. It looks like he's getting ready to put the kids to bed, and everybody's just kinda hanging out on the couch together as a family.
And he said, you know what'd be funny is if I called all my homies and told them good night too. So he grabs his phone, and he just starts calling his best friend. And he's they're like, what's up, dude? And he goes, hey. I just call I was just calling to say good night.
Oh. And their reactions are like, what? And he goes, so sweet dreams. Just goodnight. And then it's it's hysterical.
It's so funny. And I think, I think it's just way out of the norm for adults to call their adult friends and say, hey. I was just I was just calling to say goodnight, bud. It's Sleep dreams. So funny.
I there's I don't know if you've seen the ones that are, like, at barbershops, and the guys, like, turn the chair around, the barber turns the chair around, and then kind of, like, kisses the Yeah. Kissing the forehead. I've seen somewhere, like, the the guy's doing, like, the straight razor shave on a face, and he's got on rubber gloves, but it'll, like, grab inside their mouth, like, pull their love out, start shaving them. And their reaction is always like, what are you doing? Like, what is happening?
Those are very funny as well. Yeah. Those are pretty good. I'm gonna call my friend and tell her goodbye. It'd be hilarious if you just called.
And it you know, it's like 09:00, and you're calling, like, hey. I'm just getting ready to tuck into bed. Wanted to call and say goodnight. Sweet dreams. Yeah.
Sweet dreams, bud. Alright. Talk to you later. That's it. That's the whole conversation.
It's so funny. Night night. Yep. Super, super, super funny. So, give it a go.
You know? Later on tonight, call your friends, your adult friends, and just say, hey. Call and say goodnight. Goodnight. Do it to your mom.
That'd be funny too. Oh, that would be nice. Call and say good night. Mom. Night night, mom.
