Full show transcript:
Scroll in TikTok. I found this video. It's a dad and he is on some monkey bars.
Okay. The dangerous place for dad to be. And he is on a, it's like a family challenge and it's lifting your family to safety challenge. So he is, he's got his legs over one of the monkey bars. Hanging down. He's kind of hanging down and he lives his first child. Who's about five?
Yeah, that's ish. Lifts her up to safety. Okay.
Safe. So he has to hold on to him or is he just, it's one at a time. One at a time. Correct.
Okay. So she's like 10 or 11. So this one is, yes, next child, next daughter is 10. He's like, okay, got you, got you. Now she's kind of helping the five year old. Well, she should, but she should help.
Yeah. Save your own life. She's got that 10 year old.
Safe. Third daughter. She's a little bit older. 13.
13, 14. And he's like, all right, we got this. You're a little bit bigger. So you're going to hook yourself onto my body. Yeah. But again, she can assist.
Poise yourself up. Yep. Yeah.
And he's helping lift her. I'm not doing this. I'm just telling you already.
Why? Go ahead. Keep going. Okay. Daughter, 12 year old, safe. Here comes the mom.
Okay. He's lifting his wife up. She's a tiny person.
Yes. Why are you offended by that? You're offended by my observation that she's a tiny person. You're saying you first said, we're not, I'm not doing this.
That's right. And then you said, she's a tiny person. She's smaller than the teenage daughter.
Yeah, she is teeny. But he did it. He got all of his family to save him. Well, good for that guy. I hope he's proud. I hope he's there to save my family. Me too.
Jesus Louise. I knew you were going to say, we're going to do this. I'm putting it in the calendar. I'm not doing that.
I'm not doing it. First of all, we have a 21 year old who is roughly the same. He can save his own life.
Yeah, he's roughly the same size as you. Right. Our 16 year old can save her own life.
She's physically capable. It's fine. You're on your own. No, I can't be.
I can't be. You're my emergency contact. You have to save me. You have to. I can't save myself.
Babe. I can't. Listen to me.
When I tell you, you better start doing some arm workouts because you're going to need some upper body strength to climb up on those monkey bars like that. I got none. I'm not doing all the lifting. Fine.
I'll guess I'll just die. No, listen. Did you see how she assisted and climbed and pulled herself up? Yeah.
Yeah. I would help. How?
You know, you'll be able to jump to get up to where I'm at. Yeah. All right. Fine.
Look, I'm not being rude. I'm just saying there's limits. OK. Well, I don't have the core strength of that guy. OK. Well, then we're both going to hit the gym so that we can. I'm not in the gym to do this challenge. Why?
Because it's not a priority. We're all going to die. No. It's not. That's not how it's going to work.
The scenario where I have to dangle upside down from something to lift all of you up is so not happening. Yeah, it is lava, hot lava on the ground. Hot lava. And we're like, help, Josh, help. Help. You've got to lift us all to safety.
Hot lava. Yeah. Dude. No. No. No. No.
Hot lava. Also, why were you offended when I said she's tiny? Why did you go, hey? Because your first thing was, I'm not doing this.
That's right. And they were like, oh, she's tiny. Like, obviously, she's going to help her. Like, you couldn't help me because I wasn't dying.
And there it is. I never once said you're anything. I didn't say you're not tiny. I didn't say anything about you.
I made an observation about the woman in the video being smaller than the teenage daughter. And for him, easy. Easy job, dude. I never said, boy, I sure wish. No, you said, well, that's easy for him because his wife is tiny. Didn't say any of that.
This is going to be a struggle for me. Nope. I saw the challenge. I knew you wanted me to try it. I said, I'm not doing this. You were already on one. And then I made an observation about her.
And then you were like, well, I guess I'm not tiny. Never said that. Whatever. Forget I even brought it up. I'll just die in the lava.
There's no lava. Let's get to the show. Who is? Hi. Oh, hi. Good morning.
Good morning to you, Josh. What's up? Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. OK. What's up with you?
I don't know. You're looking particularly fashionable this morning. You have on a nice, how would I describe this shirt? Go ahead.
What do you got? Well, it's white. Yep. And it has some poofy-ness to the sleeve. OK. You were complaining about the elastic in the sleeve a second ago, because it's got a, what would you call that? A flared sleeve. But it's also puffy. Yeah.
Yeah. The elastic is a little bit tight. You've got to quit lifting so many weights. Right. It goes biceps. Right. And then it has a collar.
Yes. All the way around, not just like a lapel. It has a full collar all the way around.
And then it has some ornamental design to the fabric. Is that fair? Yeah. Some sort of circle pattern? Yes.
And are those holes? Yeah. OK. That's how I would explain that shirt.
And then you have on a striped skirt. Yeah. That's a good look. Thanks, Josh. It's nice.
Thanks, Josh. That's nice. Yep. I've been trying to put a little more effort in. Is that right?
Yeah. I've been kind of a little bit like, dirt-a-dart-a-dart lately. Well, you've been skirting it up all week.
I have, actually, because it's summer. It was your new, what do you call that? It's a sort of neck-to-knee length, short sleeve kind of jersey material. Neck-to-knee?
Yeah. That's how they should describe dresses. Neck-to-knee. It's a piece of fabric that goes from your neck to your knee. And it had a tie around the middle. Yeah.
And it was like a gray color. Yes. And that was nice.
Thank you. And then... I paired that with some Converse, so it was like a cash... Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. ...some more casual look. Mm-hmm. And then Monday, you had on like a black felt skirt.
Yeah. I forgot even what I wore on Monday, but you remember. I'm trying to remember the top you had with it. Maybe blue? No, it was green. It was my green blouse. Describe it.
That I hate because the buttonhole is too small. Oh, that's right. I remember that one. Yeah.
I always have to have you help me with the button. Did you get stuck in it? No. You got the button. It's easy to come out.
It's difficult to put in. Okay. Well, this has been an update on Chantel's fashions. It's good. Thanks. Where'd you get this shirt? I think I got it at a thrift store.
Oh, nice. I think I thrifted this. It's a good thrift. It's a nice shirt.
Thanks, Trash. And what are you wearing? You're wearing a white t-shirt.
Yes. And it's got some designs on it. The designs are trees.
That's right. And some of the trees are upside down. Yeah, they're all over. And some of the trees are right side up. That's right.
It's cool. And your shorts? They're just blue. They're dressier. They're not like a gym short.
Congrats. You know, I don't know if you have any pants like this where there's two buttons. Yeah.
On purpose where you have not the ones hidden and ones visible. Yeah. What's the point of that?
I don't know. I have pants like that. The skirt is like that. With two buttons? It's got a clasp and a button.
And I never do the button because I go, I don't need to. What if the clasp fails? Trouble. That's what I always think. I better do it both buttons because they put them there for a reason in case one fails.
Have you ever had one fail? I know because I do them both. I think you'll be okay. You'll be all right. I would hate to have that happen.
You'll be okay, but... Have a button failure? Well... As you're getting ready today, hopefully your fashions are as fashionable as Chantel's fashions. She's very on top of it today. Good morning. All right.
Here's some really good news. This comes from World Cup Action today. And I've seen some pictures and I'm pretty impressed by some of the countries that are competing. World Cup soccer tournament in full swing and teams from countries all around the world are playing matches in the U.S. and Canada and Mexico. And of course, there's a lot of people watching what's going on on the field. But the World Cup has also brought together a lot of cultures allowing us to learn a lot from each other and enjoy seeing some different traditions. And one of those that has captured the imagination of many comes from the Japanese fans who bring blue bags to the stadium. They are called the Samurai Blue.
Yeah. And during the matches, they wave their blue bags to celebrate the action on the field and then after the matches are over, they spend extra time in the stands picking up the litter on the ground. And they're doing mass cleanups of the stadiums, leaving them so clean that the janitorial staff is like, well, thank you.
Like, that's amazing. This tradition dates back to the 1998 World Cup in France where the Samurai Blue supporters have kept it alive every tournament since. And once again, they're sharing this super unique gesture with World Cup action again this year.
Yeah, very, very cool. And I don't know if you saw the pictures of the Japanese locker room after they left it. Everything, all the towels folded. Normally people are like, stuff's just everywhere. No, everything was folded.
Everything that they were handed to be authorized to go on field, all the little jersey things, all the stuff laid out neatly folded in piles, color coded even. It was like, it's incredible. It's just a nice gesture. It's so nice.
I'm going to take care of my stuff so that somebody else doesn't have to. Yeah, so cool. Really, really fancy. That is fancy. I like what they're doing. So, well done.
And thanks for showing everybody how it should be done. That's really cool. And a stark contrast to what other things that are happening. So it's really nice to see that. And that is good news. Do you ever want to eat a blue hot dog? I know. Why is it blue? It's easy.
You just soak your hot dogs in Gatorade for about 15 minutes. It has to be the blue ones, right? No.
And then it turns an amazing blue color and it's packed with electrolytes, you know, from the Gatorade. No. No. No. I don't think a hot dog is a sponge. Somebody apparently is trying to make this into a TikTok trend.
It's not. And they're like, your kids will love this. And I go, I don't think that I could ever get my kids to eat a blue hot dog.
Okay, first of all. Especially one that was soaked in Gatorade. I don't think the... I'm looking at some people that have made it. It's horrible. Yeah. But the way to make them actually blue is to put them into a mason jar and then put in blue Kool-Aid pouch.
Okay. And then soak them in that. I don't think the Gatorade thing is going to work. It turns them a terrible color. They're not blue.
And they're boiling them in the blue Gatorade. But it looks horrifying. It does look horrible. I'm looking at a picture. It looks bad. They are not blue.
And it's just the outside also. It's...no. Would you eat it? Would you eat a blue hot dog?
No. If you went to a barbecue and they served you blue hot dogs, would you be like... I will eat somewhere else later. Delicious.
No. Don't do this. You don't even want to try it. Soaked in electrolytes. It's not. It's made of salt.
So it is electrolyte. Again, I feel this is... Okay. It is a troll.
Here's the deal. The tiktoker who posted this is dedicated to trolling food internet at an exceptionally well-executed level. Her name is Juliet and she does things like create meat cereal in the style of Fruit Loops. She uses her dog's actual paws to make paw print cookies and fill the front trunk, the frunk of a Tesla with tiara misu. Stop.
I hate people that waste food. That is...that's her whole thing. So this is one of her videos from a few years back that showed her boiling hot dogs and Gatorade, which turned them a blue color. And so people said, could this actually happen? Would this work?
Does it actually do it? And they turned a pale, awful color. They didn't turn like blue.
Because have you seen Gatorade? It's clear. It's not necessarily blue. Well, I mean, look, it did turn the skin pretty gross. But the inside is still just regular hot dog color. Because it's just, for some reason, when you boil it in the water, it turned the skin blue. See, now I'm annoyed because...
It's pretty gross. I got bamboozled. No, you got rage baited. That's her whole thing.
Her whole thing is rage bait to make you go, no! But... That's disgusting. Stop using...
I just... I don't like when people waste food to make rage bait videos. To make content. Because there are people out there who are actually hungry. That is absolutely gross.
Food for clicks. Yeah, I don't like that. Yeah, I agree.
I'm right there with you. And that's what this lady does. That's her whole thing on TikTok. And now... Is making people angry about the way she treats food.
And now I'm annoyed at her. Well, there you go. And you brought it up. I know it. You did it to yourself. I know. You annoyed yourself. I know.
So good job. Something embarrassing happened to you yesterday. I can't even believe you would leave the house looking like that. You know, when I found this out, I was a little disappointed. And then when you found it out, I was reminded of the disappointment. And I went, yeah, I've been like this all day.
All day. I had to sit and suffer with this embarrassment. And it wasn't even my own fault. Wait, did you?
Yes, it was. You picked them out. You put them on. It was so early in the morning. I didn't even look. When did you notice?
I was in here and I rolled back and I went, oh no. Here's the deal. I need to start by saying I appreciate you. And the things that you do to help make my life just that much easier. And one of those is the folding of the laundry.
Which I also will do. I don't mind folding laundry. I have no problem folding my own laundry. This particular time you have folded my laundry and mismatched some socks.
And it is not the first time you have mismatched socks for me. It's hard. It's not. I'm just kidding. I'm kidding.
I'm kidding. I don't match your socks. No, you just throw all my stuff in a pile. Because I have been in this situation where I have mismatched socks before.
And so I sort of was trying to set a precedent of like, I'll match my own socks. It's fine. Just put them in a pile.
I'll take care of it. You're trying to lead by example. Is that what you're saying?
Yeah. I was trying to sort of subconsciously be like, yeah, maybe if I don't match her socks, she'll be like, yeah, I'm not matching his. He doesn't match mine. And I'd be like, great, now they all match. Because it's happened on a couple different occasions where I've gone to get socks and I've been like, this is a short sock and this is a long, these aren't even the same. Okay, but here's why. Your socks are too confusing.
What? What's confusing? Because they all look so similar that it's really hard to tell them apart. Well, I had one red one and one gray one yesterday.
Okay, be clear. The socks were black. The trim at the top, one was gray and one was red. Very distinctly different. Very minuscule detail. Pretty easy to spot. You didn't spot it when you put them on? No, because it was dark and I wasn't paying attention. I put on socks. They're supposed to match.
Shouldn't be an issue. And then I scoot back like this and my feet swung forward and I went, oh no. I got a red one and a gray one. All day I had to walk around mismatched socks.
I'm wearing shorts, you can see them. Did anybody say anything? No. Not until you noticed. Not until you noticed and then went, nice socks. Like it wasn't your own fault. I would say that I did it on purpose.
I truly did not. Nice socks. Oh, yeah. I did. You know, there used to be a time early on in our marriage where I would fold your laundry and put it away for you. Oh, you don't need to do that. Long honor those days.
No, I know. Now it ends up in, if it's folded it's in piles on the bed. Like here, put away your stuff. But, you know, we've had this conversation where like we fold towels differently. differently. You fold pants differently than I do, so I have to refold my pants every time. So what you're telling me is...
I don't mind folding my own laundry. That's what I'm telling you. I'll just put them in a pile then. I don't mind. Like, it's fine.
That's fine with me. And that's like with yours, like I know how you fold your pants. You fold them, like I fold mine front pocket to front pocket, fold it in. You fold them back pocket to back pocket, fold it in. So it's just a thing that you do.
I know that. So when I fold yours, I do it that way and put them in the pile because I don't know where you keep all your stuff. So I just leave them in a pile on the bed.
It's easier. And then there'll be a pile of unmatched socks waiting for you, which is kind of a little adventure. Here's what else will happen. I'll have a missing sock. Like I'll have a weird, like one solo sock sitting on the dresser after laundry is done. And my first thought isn't where that other sock go. My first thought is that socks match with another sock.
It doesn't match with and it's in my drawer somewhere. No, because there's not two solo socks. Sometimes there are. Sometimes there are two sitting there and I go, there's a pair mismatched in the drawer. I know it. But you're the one who put them away.
I just folded them and put them on the bed. No, I did it. But I wasn't checking. I'm not going to go double check match socks. Oh, he's got time for that.
Did she fold my laundry right? Who cares? Okay.
I don't, I don't, it doesn't matter that much. I'll just throw your stuff on the bed and you can fold your own stuff and I'll throw, fold my own stuff. Does that sound like a plan? I mean, it's fine. Although it's just.
But it's not that big a deal. That seems more complicated than just folding it all while I'm just folding it. I do.
But if it's a sock, it goes in your sock pile. Okay. That's it. Like that's the only thing.
I like, I know how you like your pants. So I do that. I don't know what you hang versus what you fold and put in the drawer. So that ends up all your shirts end up in a little like stack. I don't know how you, I don't know what you.
So everything's kind of. Sometimes I go, I think these are his pajamas, but he also wears them when he's doing yard work. So I don't know. I'll put those in the pile. Yeah. You know, because they're shorts.
So you just never know. But they're not irregular shorts. They're like a, like a gym short, but not really a gym short. And I go, I don't, I've seen him wear these to bed before, but I've also seen him mowing the lawn in these. What, where do these go? Multi-purpose short drawer.
It's the middle one. We mentioned yesterday that our daughter is in, I call it cop camp. Cop camp. Yeah. You got a cop camp update.
I do have a cop camp update. She, uh, yesterday got to do a little bit of scuba diving. Yes.
They went to practice a little bit of search and rescue. Yeah. How fun. Oh, it's totally fun.
And then, uh, she found out that she was really excited about doing that, but that she also couldn't sink. So I have the absolute opposite problem. No, you have the same problem. No. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
You're right. The opposite problem. If I am not actively swimming forward, I sink.
Yeah. And I can sit on the bottom of the pool. I can hang out there, but if I'm not swimming forward, see at the bottom.
That's where I go. Float. I'm the same as Maria. I know. And apparently she is super buoyant as well.
They even put some weights on her. That still wasn't working. That's crazy.
I know. So she could. She's more buoyant than weights.
Yes. Sink, kid. I know. But then they also got to go take a tour of the jail. Yeah. And that's so scary. Jail is so scary to me. It's one of your biggest fears. It actually is.
Yeah. Ever since I was little, just this idea of being falsely accused for something and having to go to jail, terrifies me. One, they beat me alive in jail. Well, and the beds are hard.
The blankets are cold. The food is bad. You get no privacy when you need to use the potty. Well, don't go to jail. I know that's my intention, but I'm telling you falsely accused. That's what's going to happen. Someone's going to say, you did this bad thing. And I'm going to say, no, no, you got to believe me. You got to believe me.
OK. So they took a tour of the jail and she said it was really cool. And then they also got to eat jail food. Hurray. What a treat. What did they have? The friend that she was with said that it was better this year than it was last year. Last year, apparently they had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, but the jelly was like a brick, like a slice. Yeah, I was like, how can you mess up peanut butter and jelly? It was like a black slice of jelly. So this year they had some chicken and rice.
Oh, yeah. Every said the chicken was a little bit dry. Well, and the carrots and the rice were mushy. OK. And the roll was yeasty. OK. And they had some cornbread.
Yeah. But the cornbread had a glaze over it. That's probably like a honey butter.
Probably honey butter. So her friend. So she wasn't excited. Rock, paper, scissored for her food. Oh, is that right? And she ate the corn is what she ate.
Well, OK. Lunch vegetable. She said she ate the corn because it felt like the safest option. I said, safest.
I go, it's all safe. And she goes, yeah, I know, but that was the only thing that was going to have any kind of flavor. And then her boyfriend told her, he goes, now you need to really go home and thank your parents. Because they've made you delicious food all your years.
And they could have been making you this food. And she was like, you're right. Did we get to thank you? No, I mean, she said that, but only when she was telling us the story. But we'll see when I make food and she's like, I'm not hungry. I go, all right, all right. You want some jail food then.
Jail food. I couldn't. I couldn't survive. Why? Because you would. It's too scary. Jail is so scary.
What if you were like the boss of the place? No, all of a sudden. No, that's too much. That's too much responsibility. You walk in and you're like, I'm in charge here.
No, because here's what happens. There's always somebody looking to be the next boss. And so you'll get, yeah. No, you'll get, you'll get overthrown every chance you get.
There's always somebody who wants to be top dog. Yeah. No, you'll get shivved. No. No. No. You've got to quit watching crazy movies. I never want to be top dog. Never. OK. You're just going to be the one out there doing push ups and working out on the gym all the time.
Yeah, I'll get swole. That's what I'm saying. And then you're top dog. I don't want to be top dog.
No, people don't like the top dog. Everyone's looking over at you. I'm telling you. No way, man.
That's because of the way they've been treated by former top dogs. Be the good one. Be clint of the good. There's a new way we're doing things around here. And it's with kindness. We're going to be nice to each other.
That's it. You're going to treat it like the way you treat preschoolers. And you're going to go, ah, we don't bite our friends. Come on now. I think that's going to go over terribly. I do too. I just can't go to jail ever.
Nobody accused me of it. Keep your nose clean, they say. Took a little adventure out into the country roads. Country road.
Yeah, that's right. Take my home. OK, go ahead. That's fine. Every time, man. You got it.
You got it. Stop. I don't know that stops the right word. It's just that it can happen inside. OK, it has to come out though, Josh. It has to.
Hot lava. So anyway, we took a drive into the country roads. And here's a thing that I found out in the evening time. People that live in the country roads go outside and walk in them.
Oh, man. We saw so many people wandering in the country roads. In the middle of the road. Walking the dogs, going for jogs.
And I guess kids on scooters and bikes like it. Where else are they going to go? They get it. I understand. But why are you walking down the middle of the road?
Right. Maybe so they can be seen a little bit easier. Well, I saw them. But there was just so many. There were so many. I'm not even I'm not upset or anything. Let's be clear. That's awesome. Get your cardio.
I'm all about it. I just was amazed at the quantity of people wandering in the roads out in the country. Walk in those country roads. Yeah. We went to Jamestown. You said, oh, this is Jamestown. You ever been to Jamestown, Idaho? I said, I did not even know that place existed. Yeah, I looked up the population of Jamestown, Idaho. It does not have a formal official population count because it's an unincorporated community.
That's true. It is part of Bingham County. South of Idaho Falls, a few miles east of Shelley. It is positioned in the fertile Snake River plain. Realize heavily on the region's agricultural industry. Yeah, I mean, they have a cute little sign that says Jamestown. There was a lot of agriculture out there. It did have an established date on it.
1907, I think is what it said. Something like that. So anyway, it is a place. It is a place. But I think it's technically, I think like if you have an address there, because it's not an incorporated town, I think you you're in Shelley. I mean, yeah.
Right. But also, why would it be called Jamestown if it's part of Shelley? Well, it's the same thing as like, like Louisville. Uh-huh.
I think they count as Manan. OK. But Louisville is one of these other little towns. I'm sorry, Jamestown. Hold on. I'm not sure it's Jamestown, Idaho.
Yeah, no, you might have been looking at something else. The same thing with like Salem, Idaho, between Rexburg and St. Anthony. It's its own place. Parker is its own place. But where's Parker? Up by Rexburg and St. Anthony.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I think we have the bread dooms there. But I think you count as either St. Anthony or Rexburg, depending on because they're the larger city.
Like Taylor is a town also out there by Jamestown. No. No.
Just call yourself the town that you're close to. Shelly. Yeah. I think they do. I think their postal code and their city is technically written down like their address is comma Shelly. So it wouldn't be Jamestown.
Right. So why do they have a sign that says Jamestown? Because that's where it is. Because some guy with the last name of Jamestown in 1907 was like, nope, I gotta have a sign with my name on it. Right. I founded this area.
That's right. But it was never incorporated as a full city. It doesn't have a city council and a, you know, it's not a city.
It's a township. Maybe. Is that what it is? It's smaller. Could whatever is smaller than an incorporated city, a neighborhood.
No, because it's not that. Like a subdivision has a name. Yeah. I don't, I don't, it just says it's an unincorporated rural community. Yeah.
They're just a community. Nice. Jamestown. There you go. Yeah.
The things we didn't know about. Hey, do you know what the oldest, oldest town in Idaho is? No. Franklin. Franklin. Hey, it's Franklin.
Hey, just real quick, I feel like I need to throw in a note of correction. We did receive a phone call to let us know that the town is called Jamestown. Well, that's what the locals call it.
Right? It's one of those things. That's what everybody calls it. Everybody calls it Jamestown because it's on Jamestown Road. Historically, was at one point called Jamestown, but it's Jamestown. But that's what Google said it was.
I understand. It's just Jamestown. Anyway, and every time you ask Google about Jamestown, it says, did you mean Jamestown?
Jamestown. Have you ever had co-workers steal stuff from you? And I'm not talking about like your personal things. I'm talking about like my favorite pen. Yeah.
Or your scissors or your tape dispenser or your stapler. Yeah. Nothing more annoying than having to go like, where's all the stuff that I keep on my desk?
Yeah. And I realize it's not necessarily my stuff. The company owns it. But this is the stuff that I've been using. This is the stuff that's stationed on my desk.
Where is my stuff? Right. And if you borrowed it, put it back. It was usually scissors. Scissors was a common thing that would disappear from my pen mug. I'd be like, where did my scissors go? And I need them every day.
But then when you go to get them and you need them, and who knows how long they've been gone? And where are they? Right.
And who took them? Right. And that's why a lot of people start nailing stuff to their desk. Or they got strings on everything.
Name them. Like there's people that just write their name on them. And I'm like, yeah, but it's not mine. It doesn't necessarily belong to me because the company bought it. Yeah. But it's not like it's mine to use when I'm here.
Stop taking my stuff. I've had, I buy myself some nice pens on the work, on the work money. On the work. Part of my other job is like ordering and and supplying office supplies.
Got it. And we all have kind of our favorite type of pen that we use. And the pen I like to use is a fancier one. And they started disappearing. And I went, no, I specifically brought these for me. If you want a fancy pen, I'll buy you some. But you got to tell me, don't steal my pens. So I've been having to hide them. And now every day when I leave, I go, are my pens all hidden?
Thank you very much. Now everybody knows. I got to tuck them away. Nobody listens.
That's not true. Everybody's listening. And now your, your secret pen stash is going to be discovered. They don't know where my pen stash is. It's probably not hard to find.
You have a small desk area. Yeah, I know. They could probably find it if they were looking. It's probably a pen drawer, but more than they're more than often than not, I think they're just looking for something quick. And so they just grab. That's fair.
They're not going to go search in there like, I got a right. How many how many pens you have in your stockpile? Five.
So if one disappears, you're good. Josh. Hey, hey, hey, hey, sell down. It's not good because then you have to peel the little plastic thing off the end of a new one. Yeah.
Oh no. Plus also, I like those what I like after they've been writing for a while because it just writes with ease. The fresh pen. You got to break in the pen. What are you saying?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't like when people take stuff off of my desk. And again, I'll say this again. I know it's not my stuff, but it's my work stuff.
Stop it. Can you write your name on your pens with another pen? And then do you also write your name on the pen you wrote your name on the pen with? I'm going to get like a little post it and write my name on the pen and then wrap it around there. Tap it on. Yeah, tape it with a piece of yarn so that it can be tethered to your desk. Try that. Steal my pen. Yeah, I just need to, I'm watching you.
That's what I'll put on the post. Well, that's why people started putting like flowers and put them in a pot. Was there like nobody's going to steal this annoying pen? You'd be surprised. Yeah.
Because I had that in my other job and people would walk with those flower pens all the time and be like, ah, good stealing my stuff. We were out late last night and we were like, what should we do for dinner? Our kids were back with his friends and Ray was with her friends and we were like, we can do whatever we want for dinner. Yeah.
What is this new game? In case you were wondering, Jamestown doesn't have any restaurants. So we drove north and ended up back in I.I. We drove to the big city. Went to the old towns.
Drought the town. And you said, hey, hey, hey, you want to try the new Chipotle? Yeah. Let's go see how busy that place is. Let's go see how big the line is. There was no line.
It was pretty, pretty well. It was pretty late. I mean, it was what, nine?
I think it was about nine. So if you're anxious to try it, nine o'clock is the time to get there. I mean, there was still a line and there were people that came in after us and the line was backed up.
I mean, it takes time to get through. And we had eaten Chipotle before in other cities, but we were like, it's been a long time. What do we get? And you looked, what did you search even? I just wanted to know what the most popular thing on the menu was. And it came up with like, here's the most tried and true, fail proof, like you will love this no matter what. And so I just walked up to the counter and I, I didn't hold up my phone and say, I'll have this, but I read it and I was, I'm going to have this bowl and I'm going to have this in it. And I want this and this and I worked my way down the line and they were like, you want that and that? And I was like, yeah, sure, why not? Go ahead and built out my meal. And then we got it to go because it was late.
We wanted to go home and eat. Yeah. And it was good. It was tasty. I was happy with my fool proof order. Now there was a, there was a woman in front of us getting a burrito.
Yeah. And the woman making her burrito had to get another tortilla because a couple of extra pieces of foil. She had wrapped it so big. It was the size of a newborn baby. It was crazy. I want to weigh that because I don't, that's gotta be, it was a monster. And the guy was working the, the like drive-through line next to a, he goes, would you believe him? I told you I've seen bigger than that.
Like that's, that's nothing like that's crazy. It's a lot of food. It's so much food. Where was she going to put all of that? Even the bowl that I got, I said as we were sitting there eating, I went, we could absolutely share this.
Yeah. Like this one bowl is big enough for the two of us. It's, there's plenty of food. Half of mine and I've got it for lunch. Same. So I got two meals out of it, which is always nice.
That is always, I always like having leftovers. Whoa. And it was tasty. I mean, I was not disappointed.
So that's, that's always nice when you go and spend some money on something new and you go, yeah, it was good. If you've been around Idaho Falls for a while, you know that the Chipotle used to be a Carl's Jr. And then as you pointed out, it used to be a Schlotzky's deli before that. That is correct. And we had a date at Schlotzky's very early in our relationship. I think that was our first date. Probably. It was.
One of, definitely. It was. It was the same as the bowling thing. Yeah. Wow. It's that same day. Wow.
I know. So we've, we've stood in line in that building a couple different times. The last time I had Chipotle was the one in Chubbock that is no longer.
It's gone. But it was, it was right on where the green T used to be. If you remember, I was in that same little triangle of intersection. If you've been around, if you've been around, you'll know where the green T used to be. Yeah.
And that's where Chipotle was, but it left. Oh, really? Yeah.
It's not there. So that's interesting. But anyway, it was, it was fine. It was good.
Yeah. It was good dinner. I got two meals, and it was a lot of food, and the internet did not lead me astray. So thanks. Thanks, internet. So I'm scrolling socials, and I see a video posted yesterday.
Yeah, June 16th. A trailer crashed around mile marker 1617 in Yellowstone National Park carrying a load of beehives. Oh, no. And somebody said in the video, I'm not sure how the crash occurred or why, or the status of any of the drivers or whatever. But in the video, there are beehives just scattered on the road.
Oh, no. And there are people, you know, they're obviously in their cars driving by, and there's people in beekeeper suits trying to help kind of gather this and stuff. Here's the thing. Bees, I'm sure several of them perished in this accident, but there's multiple queens here, and so swarming happens, and the bees are panicked trying to find their queens, and it creates a mess, but also bees everywhere.
Everywhere. Oh, no, bees. We need the bees.
Well, I know. And how do you can't, like, without finding the queens, how do you get the bees to go where you want the bees to go? I don't think you can.
Oh, no. I don't know enough about beekeeping to know that, like, how you handle a situation like this. Like, what do you even do? How did they handle the situation? I don't know. I haven't seen any news reports. I've been trying to find articles to back up this video to say, yeah, this is a thing that happened, and here's the details.
I've no investigative reporting. I don't know. I don't know if the wreck is still there. I don't know if there's still bees, like, on the loose, like, is Yellowstone just full of brand new bees now? Are they going to be able to survive winters there? Are they that kind of bee? Or are they, I don't know.
If a bee, a stray bee, can't find his queen, does he find another? I don't know. I don't know enough about it. Because the whole video caught me off guard, and I went, what is happening? Okay, we're going to look.
I've already tried. I did a lot of research. Did you? Yeah, there was a wreck in April in Bozeman. There's no reports of a Yellowstone accident in Yellowstone National Park with bees.
So nobody's talking about this other than this one video that I happened to scroll across, or someone's clearly driving through the park. It's not AI. It's very, I'll show you. Okay, well, I just googled it. What? Well, just watch the video. You see people driving.
Okay. You'll see emergency vehicles that are on the side of the road here. They've brought in an ambulance, and they've got a big tow truck here trying to turn the semi upright. And then you'll see beehives, like the boxes, all over the road, and then workers in full bee gear. All right, there you go.
There's all the boxes just broken on the side of the road. So when, but you have no information about this. Other than this happened, this video was posted yesterday, and it said it was MyoMarker 16 to 17 in the park. Yeah, I have. There's no information.
That's what I said. There's no information online. All I have is this video of a pile of broken beehives and guys in bee suits trying to do some cleanup stuff. So if anybody has details, I'd like to know some more details, because it's pretty interesting. I'm kind of annoyed that you brought this story to my attention. You don't know anything about it. I know other than there's bees everywhere.
That's what I know. You can keep typing. You're not going to find the details. Nobody's reporting on it. Nobody is talking about the bees in Yellowstone, except for the one video that I scrolled past. And that is, we need some news. We need some news. Okay, I googled it said there was a massive crash involving 20 million bees, but that was in 2015. Right.
I don't know. And then there's one in Bozeman in April where a bunch of bees, and then I found, yeah, so then there was one in Idaho that was back in 2015 that was a news story. I did my research before I brought it up to find out there's no more information. So that video is probably old? No, the video is likely from yesterday, but nobody's out there covering the hot news in Yellowstone about the bees. East Idaho news.
Where you at? Nate? Nate?
Nate? Where you at on the bee story? Get to the bees.
I want to know more about the bees that are on the loose. Are we helping them? Did we capture them? Are we just, do they just now free roam Yellowstone? Are they now bees on the loose?
I don't know. Okay, you watched that video of the bee. Like there was a bee that stung a guy. Yeah.
And the guy was like, Hey, if you just wait a minute after the bee stings you, instead of spotting them away, he can like, they have to unscrew their stinger from your skin. Yeah. But they will. Yeah, they will. And then they'll fly away and they don't die. And he was saying that oftentimes a bee will sting you and then have like remorse or regret and then be like, if I fly away, my stinger is going to break off and then I will surely die. Or if somebody goes to swap me, I'm going to fly away because that's my instinct. And then I'll break off from my stinger and then I'll surely die. But if you hang out for a minute, like, yeah, it's going to hurt. But if it doesn't mean to do this, let me just unscrew this. Right.
And then they can fly away and live. Is that true? I don't know.
I'm not a bee expert, as I said earlier. Anyway, I got to get... I'm going to send that video over to Nate and go, Hey, figure this out, man. Call somebody. I need to know what's up.
How much money you have? I don't know. Why? What do you want to buy? Do you have $13,000? Negative.
No, if I did. You have negative $13,000? Negative $13,000.
What are you trying to buy for $13,000? How important is it for you to get up and go to the bathroom in the middle of the night? I don't.
You're not a middle-aged woman. That is very true. That is true. I am not a middle-aged woman.
Yeah, thank you for noticing. There is a robot toilet that will drive itself to your bed. It will navigate around obstacles whenever you need it to. And you just use your app to call it over. You use your app? There's an app. So you hold on.
Let me get this straight. Middle of the night, you're like, I can't be bothered to get out of bed. I will pick up my phone, open an app, and then direct a robot to come to me.
You know that you would have been done in back by the time you pick up your phone. It arrives. Hello. You do your business. No.
And then it goes back to its talking station. No. No. How convenient. No. You can just roll out of bed. Inconvenient. No. It's like the three steps to my background. It's very close. I don't need to. I mean, let me think about it. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
It's probably about closer to 15 to 20 steps if I'm being real. Oh, no. I know. I don't necessarily need.
I mean, how? 15 steps is round trip. It's not that far.
I have the feet. What's that? So? Come on. And your bed is closer to the bathroom.
Your sign. You're not taking 15 steps. I'm going to count. I bet you take seven. I bet you take seven or eight. It's half of 15. That's a round trip. I'm going to count. I'm going to put it on the calendar so I don't forget.
Yeah. Count the steps to the bathroom. Important information. This is, look, I'm trying to find a practical application and I'm thinking about hospice. I'm thinking about like, where could this be beneficial? But in everyday use, stop being lazy. Stop. Get up and go to the bathroom.
Especially since. Stop it. Can you imagine you wake up at three in the morning and you're like opening crack, open an eye and then you have to light up your phone to use an app. You called your toilet over at three in the morning. Either that you're going to tell your smart speaker.
Hey Google, got to go potty. We have a light in our kitchen that's, I don't know how it's operated. We can just tell. Smart light. We can just tell Google like, hey, turn on the sync light. We can do that with the kitchen light up above the hallway light.
I've got lights all over the place. And this morning, was it this morning or yesterday? I said, Hey Google, sync light off. And you were talking to somebody. I came inside last night and you were, I said, who are you talking to? And you said the sink. And I walked down the hall and I went to the sink. And then I heard you go again.
Google sync light on. I went, all right, you're not talking to the sink. You're talking to Google.
You're running the home automation. You weren't talking to the sink. It was a strange thing you said. And I just kept walking and I went, whatever, have fun talking to the same.
How often do you do that during a day? Or you just walk away from me going, whatever. A few. Whatever, whatever you're doing.
Okay. Good luck with the sink. Let's not spend $13,000 on a robot that comes to you to use that.
The bathroom. No, because we don't need it. No, we don't need it. It's less than a dozen steps to get to the bathroom and back. So you're going to be okay. Let's just go.
Let's use that money for something else. Yeah. Okay. Shuttle down. I'm calm.
I'm good to go. Would you rather this or that? Dad's day edition. Okay. Would you rather have the kids remember you for your best dad joke or your best piece of advice? Advice. I knew you were going to say that. Yeah. That's an easy one. Yeah.
Okay. Would you rather teach the kids your favorite hobby or learn their favorite hobby? That's interesting.
Because I want to be involved in what they're into, but there's also some skill that I could pass on. You were hanging out with Beck while he was doing his hobby last night. He was looking at the moon and his telescope last night.
You guys were out there for a long time. He was checking out. He believes he had found a deep space object, which it's a cluster of stars that are, you know, like really from here, a really tight cluster of stars, even though the individual stars are millions of miles apart from one another, but they're just bunched up and you can see them at this one spot. But it just wasn't dark enough.
So I think he hung out later waiting for it to get darker so that he could see more. But yeah, you guys were out there for a long time. I was cold. You guys were like, come check this out.
I went, ah, I'm cold. But no, we were looking at the moon and you could see Mercury last night. So you could see Venus and Jupiter and Mercury and the moon. And I think he said in October is when Saturn will be visible and it will be like directly above us. And so he's like really looking forward to being able to see Saturn and its rings and all that stuff. So yeah, so I was learning about that, which is fine.
Yeah, you're hanging out with him. Yeah, but I do think that there's good value in passing along skills and things from my own hobby because like fly tying and fly fishing and stuff because eventually when I'm not here and there's all this stuff, like being able to use that stuff and having some sort of appreciation for what it is would be nice. Like you know, you have gear and you have stuff. Yeah, right. So that's where I go like teaching the hobby is something and hopefully they go, yeah, I appreciate that. I know how to do that, but I don't think they're interested. So that is that.
But to the original question, since you threw in two, would you rather, would I rather have the kids remember me for my best dad joke or my best piece of advice? Yes. And my best piece of advice is. You just have to have the confidence. No, that's a good one. Okay, that's that's advice for you. What is your best piece of advice?
It takes as long as it takes. They're going to remember that. You see that all the time. But it's great advice. They've already started to say it. I know.
When they catch themselves saying it, they go, oh, I know. It's a good solid piece. Look, everything comes to an end. It doesn't take forever. It takes as long as it takes. And sometimes it takes a long time. Sometimes it takes a little time. But then sometimes you can control how long it takes, but nothing takes forever. Well, and the longer you sit there complaining about it, the longer it's going to take. Isn't it?
See, that's where it all stemmed from when they were little. Sound advice. No, I don't want to do that. It's going to take forever.
No, it's not. It takes as long as it takes and we can get it done. It's going to be done real quick.
It takes as long as it takes. Would you rather this or that? Okay, I'm kind of bummed out because I really want to watch some World Cup and I haven't been able to because I've been busy every day. Every day. Every day we've been busy. We're busy again today.
Can we not be busy every day? I keep seeing clips of like cool thing that's happening at the World Cup and I go, ah. Like Argentina, they won the game, right? They had to have. Who did they play?
Whatever. The game last night. Oh, Argentina? Yeah. The one Messi play for? Yeah, they won. Yeah, I assume because Messi got a hat trick.
He got three goals in one game. Unreal. That's awesome. I saw some clips of that and I was like, dude, that's so cool.
And I was just bummed out because I haven't been able to watch a single match. But guess what? Guess who's playing today? Portugal. Yeah.
Cristiano Ronaldo. Yeah. And we're busy tonight. No, no, no, it's playing today. Oh, you're going to watch today?
Kickoff is at, let's see, 1 p.m. Eastern time. So that's 11. Okay. Oh, great.
About an hour and an hour and some minutes you're going to be, where can I watch Cristiano Ronaldo? I'm sorry. My, my boss. You're going to be have, this is what it's like for me at March Madness where I'm like, I got games on. I got no work. I got no time for work. The games are on. Sorry.
I got to watch. This is Cristiano Ronaldo's last-world cup. Cristiano Ronaldo.
Welcome, welcome. Cristiano. Josh, there's no need to be jealous. It's not jealous. Okay.
What is it? Annoyed. Okay.
There's no need. Oh, Cristiano Ronaldo. Ah. Okay. Well, so you're going to try to figure out where to watch. All right.
I'm going to watch it at work. Okay. And guess what? Heads up, everybody. My boss is just going to have to accept it. Low productivity from this one because Cristiano Ronaldo's on the TV. I'm sorry. Do you know who's even playing?
It's Portugal. Bro. I'm kind of bummed out. I've been watching, here's what I also think is cool about the World Cup. Like there is, like the fans from Norway are doing all these cool chants and they're like rowing the boats and they were rowing up an escalator. I'm like, dude, the fans of soccer are so cool. They're just cool. And I'm like, I really want to go see a match so bad.
Okay. I think I would be a really cool soccer fan. Do you? Yes. I would wear the gear.
I would paint my face. Don't go to CristianoRonaldo.com. I said don't. You don't listen.
Why? Because he has his own website with all of his partnership deals with like career highlights. Like this guy needs a resume website.
Career highlights. His water. His app that you can use to get in shape. His fragrances because he's got that. His underwear line. His footwear line. Cristiano Ronaldo. His career highlights. Seriously, he has a resume website.
I work with the brands I believe in. Stop. They all say that. This guy.
There's also a museum. Cristiano Ronaldo. In Portugal. Yeah. With like, there's a bunch of different stuff in there. He's got some cleats. He's got some soccer balls. He's got some trophies. He's got all kinds of different like stuff from fans on display.
He's got all kinds of things in here. Golden boots. Golden boots. That's what it says. Everybody needs some golden boots.
The golden boots are in the museum for posterity. Okay. Here's what's going to happen.
What? What's going to happen? I'm going to watch the game today, the Portugal game today. And then I'm going to be in it.
I'm going to be watching more games because I really, I got the World Cup fever, but I haven't been able to watch any of it. Okay. And I'm bummed out about it because I really want to watch it.
Well then watch. I'm going to today. I'm going to tell my boss. I'm going to be like, I'm going to watch. Somebody else has to get the phones.
I'm watching Cristiano Ronaldo. Exactly. All right. Well, let's wrap up the show so you can get to watching your football. It's not for another hour. Yeah, but there's stuff to do between now and then.
