Full show transcript:
Hey. At the end of the show today, we're gonna talk a little bit about some new hairstyles, but I just found out that gray hair may be reversible. Right. So I'll start the show kinda where we end later on in the show. Researchers at New York University found that certain stem cells that are responsible for producing hair pigment can become stuck in hair follicles as we age.
And when these cells get stuck, they can't produce pigment, which leads to gray hair. Scientists think there is a way to unstick these cells and the to reverse or prevent graying, and more research obviously is needed. But the breakthrough has scientists optimistic in thinking that hair could be turned back to its original color instead of gray. Scientists. Okay.
What if you've dyed your hair for so long that you kinda want your original hair color back? Quit dyeing it. No. But it's never gonna go back to what it originally was. Yeah.
It will? No. Because it'll just be gray. Shave it off. But then it'll grow in gray.
I see what you're saying. Well, once they figure out the cells, I don't think it's gonna be one cell at a time. I think it'll probably be a mass change to stem cells in your head. Interesting. Yeah.
Because I would like to go back to my original hair color. Then do it. I just told you, I can't. You can. You take a picture to your hairstylist and say, I want this color.
And she goes, alright. Well, we're gonna have to bleach it out. Maybe it's processed. Dye it a new color to get it to a brown, and then bada bing, you'll have dirty dishwater brown hair. That's what it was.
That's what you want. I just want hair. I know you do. Be cool. I thought about doing the, the toupee thing just to see it.
You should. Because people look like incredibly younger when they do. Like, it's it's crazy. You should find out how much it is and who does it, honestly. I mean, even even just as a goof.
You know? It'd be an expensive goof. I don't know I don't know that it's that expensive. Maybe a couple $100. It's not like a $2,000 hair transplant surgery or more.
Those things can be way expensive. Look at It's not like flying to Turkey. You know? You would be a totally different person with breeze. I know.
Yeah. I can't even see my hair is in my way. It'd be cool. Wouldn't have a sunburned head. Oh.
Like, it'd be it'd be a whole thing. For the record, I like your bald head. I understand. I've dealt with it for a long time. But what if I could get it to where, like, the salt and pepper on the sides was transferred up into the top?
Mhmm. I know. And then I could wear my reading glasses. Hey. Oh, I know.
I'm looking like a totally different guy. Oh, stop it. Let's start the show. Hi. Hi.
I asked this morning if it was Thursday. You said, yeah. And I said, well, at least there's that. And you said, yeah. But it could be Friday.
Yeah. I'm a real deadbeat down by the way. I see. Don't you dare bring your toxic positivity in my world? Yeah.
Right? Oh, hey. Is it Thursday? No. Yeah.
But it could be Friday. Thursday will never be Friday. No. I know. And Thursday knows that.
But Thursday is Friday for some folks. If you work four tens, today could be your Friday. Yeah. I'm mad at them too. That's our son.
Yeah. I'm mad at him. Yeah. Settle down. You settle down.
I'm so calm. I'm not. Cool as a cucumber over here. I'm fine. Yeah.
No. I know. I get it. This week has been a little bit draggy, hasn't it? Yeah.
It really has. Last week was too busy. Right. This week is a little too draggy. I'm just we're never gonna be happy until I get a weekend forever.
A week Until I don't have to worry. Yeah. Until I don't. Oh. Until I can just make my own decisions about what to do with my time.
Okay. You alright? Yeah. I'm good. You alright?
I'm totally okay. I'm fine. Alright? I'm just a little tired this morning, so I'll be good. Give me ten minutes.
I'll be Ten minutes? Yep. And then I'll be whoo whoo whoo. Alright. So by the time we get to good news to get you going, you're gonna be going.
Yeah. I'm gonna be up and at them. Alright. We'll we'll put the we'll put it to the test. K.
We'll see what happens. Alright. We've got until good news to get it together. Can I take a ten minute power nap somewhere? How are you gonna be ready in ten minutes if you power nap in ten minutes?
Good news to get you going is not gonna be in ten minutes. That's at 06:30. So then I'll still have It's it's about twenty minutes away. Yeah. So I'm good.
Ten minute nap. I'll be ready. I'll be I feel like you're stretching out the time it's gonna take you to get ready. No. Feel like you're trying to squeeze in a ten minute nap and Yeah.
Ten minutes to prepare yourself. That's twenty minutes. Yeah. That'll be fine. We got time.
There's time. I don't know how it works in your head. What time is good news to get you going usually? No. I know.
You said you'd be ready in ten minutes. Now you're trying to squeeze it to twenty. I'll be ready in twenty minutes. Yeah. That's what it's all like.
What you're saying. Yeah. Give me twenty minutes. This is like when mom comes in to wake you up to go to school, and you go five more minutes, mom. Like that.
That's about yeah. I need five more minutes. Over here doing adult math going, like, twenty minutes. Here's the thing. I woke up, and I went in a panic going I overslept.

Good news to get you going. I'm already going, baby. Well, settle down. No. I will not.
You wanted me you wanted me up and at them. Here I am. Here I am. In England, a 40 year old tortoise named Ginger recently wrapped up an adventure of a lifetime after being on the run for nearly a year. Slow slow walk.
Sarah Jane Murry is Ginger's owner and, has been taking care of Ginger for thirty years. And, for many of those years, Ginger shared her life with a tortoise companion named Fred. Fred. Not long after Fred passed away, Ginger was inspired to dig under the garden fence and make a slow getaway across country fields to, I don't know, find a new companion, needed a new Fred. I don't know.
Ginger. The escape was heartbreaking for Sarah Jane who put posters up in the community hoping someone somewhere would see Ginger, lost turtle, come home, mister tortoise. Ginger. Well, after, nearly a year, Sarah Jane had given up hope. She always did a good job.
Ginger always did a good job of blending in with the environment. And even at a top speed of 0.00012 miles per hour, Sarah Jane figured that Ginger had gotten too far away and that she would never be found. Aw. Yeah. And that is why Sarah Jane was shocked and elated when a horse rider spotted Ginger behind a pub about a mile away from home.
Ginger next to a pub? Yeah. Ginger, you're too young. And that's 40. And thanks to a villager who remembered the old missing posters, Ginger was finally reunited with Sarah Jane.
Now listen. I've not been to England. Yeah. Me neither. A horse rider found a tortoise behind a pub a mile away from home.
And thanks to a villager who remembered the old missing posters Oh, I've seen those old missing posters. What year is it in this village? 1855. I guess so. Well, Ginger's back home, basking in the sun nibbling on snacks and leaves and things like nothing ever happened.
I wanna nibble on some snacks. Where's I got no snacks. Ginger. Ginger's home. What an adventure.
For a year. Big day out. Yeah. Big year out. And that villager, what a surprise.
No. A horse rider. This is quite the story. Yeah. From whatever year.
Did this happen this year? Like, what is happening? Anyway, that's good news to get you going. You like it? I do.
Yeah. Good one. Me too. I'm up and going. Are you?
Woo hoo. Okay. Have you ever heard of town sizing? Alright. So, let's pick this apart.
I believe this sounds to me like you, you you maybe you lived in a town that was too big when you were, raising a family. And then later in life, you decided that this town's too big. I don't need a town this big. I'm moving to a smaller town. I'm town sizing.
No. Wrong. This is where you I just replaced the word house with the word town. Right. This this house is too big.
No. Yeah. Need a house this big. We're town sizing. Seek out unique little towns full of quaint shops and restaurants Alright.
Similar to the ones in the Hallmark Channel shows. Okay. And you just travel there and experience the little quaintness. I think that sounds nice. Townsizing.
I don't like the name. The name is terrible. The name implies that your town's too big. We need a smaller town No. Or townsizing.
No. That's not it. It it totally implies that. We have talked about going on vacation and then doing we need to find a local at bigger cities Sure. So we are not stuck in the tourist traps.
We wanna go to the local places. Well, the local places to eat, the local places to do. It's like, I was watching a show last night, and it it was a bunch of people that live in New York. And one of them was dating somebody, a tourist, and the tourist was like, let's go to town Times Square. And the locals were like, ew.
Ugh. We never go to Times Square. Right. Because it's full of tourists. Full of tourists.
Yeah. So that's what I wanna do. I wanna go to a big city, but I wanna do local stuff. Having been to New York now and having seen Times Square and, Statue Of Liberty and the ferry across the harbor and, all the memorial for 09:11 and everything, like, it it's all fantastic to see. I do wanna go back now and do, like Local stuff.
Parts. Like, there's there's some street art that I really wanna see. There's a few things that, like, really interest me that I would like to go check out Yeah. And and do more of that kind of stuff now that I've got the other stuff out of the way. I think there's I think there's a place for that stuff.
There's an appeal for the touristy traps for sure because you're like, I've heard about this. I wanna go see it. Right. I wanna go check it out. But even while we were in New York after we did all that tourist stuff, we met up with a friend for dinner, and he was like, come to this place.
Like, clear on the other end of of Manhattan, past Central Park, which we end ended up walking through at night, which was it was fine. But but it was a choice. There was a large group of us. We were fine. That was that was very cool.
We sat on the the steps of, like, old brownstones, and it was it was cool. And it was not I feel like that was a local place. He took us to a local place. Yeah. I agree.
Awesome. Yeah. The food was great. The the community down there was quieter. It was it was really nice.
Yeah. I want more of that. But he lived there, so he had found the spot. That's what I'm saying. Go to the spot.
Where we go, we gotta find locals that can say, this is what locals do. Right. Don't do touristy stuff. Right. Yeah.
You can go grab the slice of pizza at the where they filmed the Spider Man scene, which we did, or you could go over here, you know, four blocks and have the real one where people know is good. And we didn't do it, so I gotta go back. Where would you go if you went to a small, quaint, little town? Oh. Do you have anything in mind?
There are several, you know, East Coast little, port towns that I think would be really cool to visit. That would be cool. I I think that, you know, like, there's stuff in in, like, Vermont and Maine and a few different places like that that I'd really like to go visit. It's very hallmark of you. Is it?
Yeah. Oh, I didn't know. Vermont, a small little quaint town in Vermont. Doesn't sound Be careful, Josh. You're gonna meet up with an old high school flame No.
I'm not. Who left for the big city. No. I'm not. And now she's back.
Nope. It's not happening in Vermont. That's what the movie's called. In Vermont. In Vermont.
Yeah. Townsizing in Vermont. Townsizing is a terrible name. I didn't name it. Let's call it something else.
Okay. What do you wanna call it? Non touristing. That's a terrible name too. We'll workshop it.
Okay. We'll think about it. I have a couple of guilty pleasure shows. Now I was reading something somewhere that somebody said, listen. If you enjoy doing it, don't call it a guilty pleasure.
If you enjoy it, it's just pleasure. I think it's just called a guilty pleasure because you're embarrassed to tell other people That's right. That you like it. Right. Because, you're afraid of judgment or something?
Yeah. K? Now this is a show that I don't necessarily love, but I like watching it. And it is the acting is terrible. Plot lines are awful, but I still I still like it.
I realized the acting sucks. Okay. Listen. There's one actress that I actually just watch it for. There's other characters in the show, other, like, main people.
Okay. I don't care about their story lines. Alright. I just watch for the one character in her story. Is this what you were watching last night?
Yeah. Because every time one of the women came onto the TV, you went, oh, what a terrible actress. She's awful. Awful. Oh.
I remember taking drama in high school. Yeah. And they said, I mean, acting is just reacting. And I remember my drama coach say saying, you gotta pretend, like, you've rehearsed these scenes a million times, but you have to pretend that you're hearing the words coming out of the other actress' mouth for the time. Great mindset.
But this actress that I hate, the one that's bad, you can tell that she's about to react. Like, she is Ah. So rehearsed that you're like, it's not Oh. New. Here comes the line.
Yeah. I see. Even her facial structures and the things she does with her face, I'm like, you're terrible. You're a terrible actress. Ugh.
I just wanna fast forward. She has the they have another character that I do enjoy, but they've paired the two of them together in a lot of their scenes. And so I'm like, I bet that other actress is like, please don't pair me up with her again. She's terrible. Did you say you wanted to skip through her scenes?
Yeah. Like, you wanna just jump ahead and be like, I don't have enough of that. Yeah. She's Interesting. Anyway, I'm watching this.
I go, I'm gonna turn this on, while I'm folding laundry. I turn it on. I fold laundry by the time I get, like, situated. Because by the time you have to turn it on and it loads and you get to the scene that you want and you get to the episode that you want Right. Laundry is already done and folded.
So then I go, well, Josh is outside doing something. I don't have any plans to do anything else. I'm just gonna sit on the bed and finish this. I know it's gross. Episodes to come for that show.
Yeah. Ugh. It just came back. It's so bad. That's why I try to watch it when you're not around.
It's not my fault you came back into the house. It's your fault. It's not my fault. It's ninety minutes of garbage TV. I know it's garbage TV, but I like it.
I like it. Let me have it. You I'm not stopping you. I didn't start I didn't go, please stop. No.
But you complain about it Yeah. While I'm watching it. Right. I don't need that. I know it's bad.
I know I should be spending my time doing more productive, better things. No. No. I'm you can totally watch it. I'm not telling you to not.
I'm just gonna tell you it's bad. I know it's bad. I'm telling you I already know. I don't need you to tell me. Every time she goes on scene and you go, bad acting.
It's the same. It's just the whole show No. For me. Yeah. The one character I like, that's who I'm watching for.
Yeah. It's not even that good. It's not worth it. But do you enjoy it? That's fine.
What's your guilty pleasure? Oh, I everything I do is total normal in line with society. No. I I literally will just watch people walk. Like, that's that's my YouTubes.
All my videos are just people walking. Through cities and stuff? Well, no. That those are fun too. I I like those.
Like, when we Oh. Like, I'm just talking about people doing hiking. Yeah. You're you're great. Watch that stuff.
And and you go I like to watch people walking. I just watch people walk through nature. You do. Fantastic. And they talk about their gear.
Look at this new tent. And I go, that's a good tent. Yep. That's not anything I enjoy. Right.
And then you'll say, hey. I was watching. She told me about this cool new tent. Right. You wanna hear all of the specs about this cool new tent?
About this new tent. No. I don't. Right. I just watch it for the one tent.
Every other piece of gear, I go, ugh. See how that sound? This is strange. No. It's cool.
You get to visit lots of different places. People do, wonderful things on YouTube these days. I mean, some of the stuff they're putting together is phenomenal, and I'm envious, but I also realize how much time it takes. And it's a lot. It is.
Like, I've got a backpacking trip coming up, not this week, but next week. And it right? Yeah. Yeah. It's not this week.
I was, like, panicking for a minute. And I'm really looking forward to it. It's gonna be great. And I thought, you know, I I have the time on this trip. I could probably film and make it.
And then I thought about all the, like, you have to walk ahead, place a camera, walk back, and then walk towards your camera to get the shot, or you have to place your camera, walk away from it Uh-huh. Walk back and get it, and then move it to the But then you gotta You're walking so much extra. You gotta watch the footage. Make sure the footage is good. Yeah.
If it's bad, you gotta do it again. I know. Do another take of me walking to and from the it's a lot of work. It's a lot of work. I agree with you.
So they're, you know, they're working hard to put out a video that gets, like, two people watching it. It's crazy. Not a content creator. It actually takes a long time. It's a ton of work.
Ton of work. And here we are, just gabbing about it. Not doing work. This is work. This is work.
Gabbin' about it. That's that's what I'm gonna change. I'm gonna get business cards. Josh and Chantel, they gab about it. Yeah.
A couple of gabbers. Just gabbing away. Yep. We've been trying to figure out what we might wanna do this weekend, and I think, fishing should be on the menu. I think, I think that's what we should end up doing, for a couple of reasons.
One of the biggest being that Idaho's free fishing day is coming up on June 14 on Saturday. Okay. This actually might be nice for me because I've gotten fishing licenses in the past. Right. I have all the gear.
Right. I don't love fishing the way that you love fishing. Right. So I didn't buy a fishing license this year because I don't know if it's something I enjoy. Sometimes I just like Enjoy enough to spend $30 for a whole year?
Right. Right. Okay. I could be spending that $30 on other stuff. Sometimes I just like hanging out on the the banks.
That's fine. You could still do that. Here's the thing. You could still do that and then have the ability to be like, you know what? Actually, I do wanna throw a line.
Do you hang on. Free fishing day? Can you fish anywhere you want? Yeah. So if you've never been fishing, free fishing day is a great day to learn to fish.
Fish and game personnel and volunteers, they set up several different free events at local fishing waters throughout the state to help timers discover what they call the joys of fishing. This is not even my own words. This is from this is from other folks. There are a a limited number of, like, loaner rods and reels that'll be available at these different events, all over the state. But if you have your own equipment, you're welcome to bring it.
You're encouraged to bring it. And, all the fishing rules and regulations including, how many, different fish you might be able to keep, the sizes and lengths, those limits, all of that. They called it the creel limit. That all is in place. Opening dates for specific waters are still in place.
Tackle restrictions because sometimes you can't use artificial baits. You can fly fish in some waters only. Right. Different things like that. So all of those rules still apply.
It isn't like free for all. Do whatever you want. Right. Correct. It all regulations apply.
The only thing that changes is that on free fishing day, you do not have to have a license to fish on the fourteenth. So you get out and try it. You can go wherever you want and have free fishing. So long as the regulation say that water is open. Yes.
Right. Okay. That is right. Through the whole state. Go fishing.
It's not my question is, like, it's not designated areas for fishing. Right? So if you wanna go fishing somewhere Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. And I wanna throw a line Correct. I'm not gonna get in trouble. That is correct. Okay.
Yeah. That is correct. Well, let's do that. But they do have, you know, again, they have, like, family fishing waters, around the state, and then they've broken these up by region. So if you go to the fishing game website, which is where I'm looking at a lot of this stuff.
So, like, if you're in the Southeast region and you wanna find some family fishing waters, they have, listed here That's really Southeast. Where where is just oh, I see. See, they've put us in the Upper Snake area, which is gonna get you Ashton Rev Reservoir, Harriman Fish Pond, Mackay Reservoir, Rexburg City Ponds, Trail Creek Pond. So these are the areas where they'll have the fish and games set up at and stuff. Right?
Yeah, which is kinda cool. If you do not know the rules in the state of Idaho, you have to have a fishing license if you are 14 years or older. And, you can obtain that at the Fish and Game office or, you know, wherever you buy your gear, you can usually get that stuff as well. But for Saturday, the fourteenth, free fishing day. La dee da, Josh.
You know, I'm just So we can all discover the joys of fishing. That's right. We can all just go and that's exactly what it says. Discover the joys of fishing. K.
Well, I'm game. Alright. Fishing game. Alright. Alright.
I wasn't sure how you were gonna react to fishing, so I had a backup plan. A backup weekend plan or what? Yeah. So you got your, Facebook open there? I do.
Or your, your, email. I'm gonna send you this, this video. K. So what I'm sending you is, happening, right now in Silver Mountain Resort, which is, it's about six hours from here. It's, it's just past Hiawatha, actually.
In it's in Kellogg is where this is happening What? Up in the Panhandle. It is an enduro motorcycle competition. I was just scrolling, and this video came up, and I went, that looks like real life Excite Bites. Yeah.
It really does look like real life Excitebike. And I thought, man, you might like to go see some real life Excitebike. Excitebike is the best Nintendo game. I disagree, but, it's okay. You might be wrong.
Okay. because Super Mario three is There's a lot of Nintendo games I like better than Excitebike, but I know how you feel about Excitebike. And this looks like real life Excitebike. Is the best. It's okay.
You can make your own track. You can put you can put so many of those jumps on there. You can put as many jumps on your track. That's what it looks like somebody did. They just threw a bunch of jumps on the track.
That was my favorite part. Looks like a track you made, an excite bike. It really does. Anyway, they call it, Silver Kings, Hard Enduro is what it's called. And, Oh my god.
You it's going on this weekend That looks so all the way up, in the Panhandle. They've got, like, huge pieces of logs. There's a line of tires. Tires. Yeah.
It's crazy. There's fire, and there's a good amount of spectators. And this is, like, happening in a hotel parking lot. Like, let's be real. Where this is happening is just outside of a hotel.
But it looks interesting. It looks, it looks like an action packed kind of thing. And this is one of the opening events. This is the side by side street rhythm course. There are much, much harder things they'll be doing.
They'll be, going up into the mountains, and, and they, like, have to go through, crazy rock slide areas. Like, this picture I'm looking at is absolutely insane. Like, they call it hard enduro because it's hard. Yeah. It's absolutely crazy.
But they They don't even look like they're having any kind of fun because they have to jump over these giant logs, huge tree trunks Yeah. And big metal slats of something. Yeah. I don't know what that is. It's concrete.
It's a concrete slab, and they're like, yeah. I'm gonna jump that on my bike motorcycle bike. Not bicycle. Yeah. Right.
Right. Right. Right. That is you're absolutely right. Yeah.
Real life Excitebike. Mhmm. And it looks like I designed that course. Right. And that's just like a fun event.
Like, that's just like, hey. We're getting this thing underway. Come watch this silliness in the hotel parking lot. Have you ever, ridden an excite bite course that I've designed? No.
Oh, you wouldn't be able to handle it. No. No one can. You know what else is not a great game? Paperboy.
Paperboy. You're right. I'll agree with you on that. That that game I think that was I think that was one of the most overhyped games. Yeah.
And there are people right now, I love Paperboy. No. You didn't. You just didn't. It was the only thing you played level.
You played a level and a half, and then you got frustrated because the dog over and over and over kept knocking you off your bike, and you're like, I hate this game. And you put it away. You have fond memories of playing paperboy, but it's not a good game. I feel like that's how I feel about Excitebike. You know what other game I didn't care for?
Hubert. I didn't play that one either. Yeah. Guess what I played? Mario Excitebike.
End end of games. Yeah. See, that's how you've rated them one and two. They're not that great. Remember when you were talking about how you were a movie kid?
Yeah. I rented Nintendo games. Oh, I played Mike Tyson's Punch Out too. Oh, okay. Cool.
That was fun. And where'd that one rank? A three. Oh, good. Strong.
Strong. Three out of three games. Alright. Anyway, if if fishing didn't work out, I was gonna say let's go all the way up north and go watch that. Check out silver what is it called?
So well, it's at Silver Mountain. It's called Silver Kings Hard Enduro. Yeah. Look it up. It looks like a side bike.
Insane. Yeah. It's pretty cool. Hey. Hey.

Okay. The house is a mess. The house isn't a mess. Go ahead. Well, I started off by saying the house is a mess, but it's it's not, like, disgusting.
It's just, like, there's always shoes on the floor, and there's always stuff on the counter because people will come in and just dump their stuff on the counter. Right? Or Yeah. Like, the floors need to be swept and mopped, and the bathrooms need to be cleaned regularly. And I have two jobs.
We have a pretty full life. We have a busy schedule, and it's hard to find the time to clean all the stuff. Right. The kids pitch in, but they don't necessarily do it to the level that I want it to be done at. Okay.
And so I oftentimes have to go in and finish the job after they've left. And as many times as I say, this is not the way that I want it done, they still do it the way that they want it done. Right. Okay. So I've devised a plan.
Alright. So that was the intro? Yeah. Alright. Good.
Okay. Good. Alright. Now let's get into it. I didn't really devise a plan.
People have all kinds of plans. So I saw I've seen similar things before, but it's a cleaning schedule that I've created for myself. So Monday is bathrooms. Right? So Monday Sure.
