Full show transcript:

Okay. Hi. Hello.

What's going on? Oh, stuff. Like what? Stuff and things. Okay. What's something that you could say that instantly makes people think you're over 40? Okay.

Ow, my back. Here's something that I've noticed about today's show, and then I'll answer your question. Okay.

Today's show is filled with lots of hypothetical questions. Josh, you love them. And then you criticizing my answers. No, no, no, no. No, it's not me criticizing your answers. It's you over analyzing the question and me just saying, just answer. Right.

That is a heavy theme through today's show. You asking me hypotheticals, which I love, and then criticizing me for my answers. Not criticizing. You're not just saying what I want you to say. Just say what I want you to say, which I go, I don't understand the question. You've asked a deep question.

I don't know what, what do you want from me? So please re-ask the first hypothetical of the podcast, but the seventh of today's show. No. Go ahead. What is it? I just asked you. What was it?

What is something you could say that people instantly think he's over 40? Yeah. You did answer. Yeah. Well, hold my back.

Today's tax day. Oh boy. Those dirt bikers are too fast. Yeah. They need to quit running through the neighborhood.

I got to go pick up a prescription. I do actually. I know. That's an old person one.

That's a lot. And then it'll be followed by why is the line to pick up prescription so dang long? Eight o'clock is too late. Yeah.

Yeah. Oh, the grocery store is busy all the time. I have no weekend plans and those are the best weekend plans. Get off my lawn. There's plenty. There is plenty to say. Okay. Good answer. You answered that one right? Oh, well, hold on tight because I don't answer any of the other ones correctly.

I do answer them. But just not in the way you'd prefer. All right. Well, enjoy listening to that.

It's all coming up in today's show. Thanks for listening. Today was a fun one. I don't disagree. I had a good time. I had a good time. At one point I made you giggle and I was happy about that. There were several laughs, but one good giggle at the very end of one of the segments. You giggle pretty good. And I'm pretty proud of that.

So thanks for hanging out. Here's today's show. Well, hey, let's have some good news. So this is a story out of New Jersey. And I guess I just didn't know that New Jersey had bears for one thing.

I didn't either. But I do know that like the part of New Jersey that we have been to is the tiny, tiny little fraction of New Jersey. Newark? We've been to Newark.

And it's just across the Hudson from Manhattan. Just across the pond. And well, no, that's different. That's England.

Right. Across the pond, which by the way is the Atlantic Ocean. Not a pond. But anyway, in New Jersey, there was a bear cub sitting on the side of the highway in a ditch by itself.

Oh, no. No mama bear, no other bears around. Heavy traffic zooming by so people started reporting that there was this bear sitting alone on the road. And so troopers from the Perryville station were dispatched to Interstate 78 where they stepped in to help the cub.

They gave him a police escort back to the station. Lucky duck. Yeah. Lucky bear. Right. He was then handed over to wildlife professionals at the Department of Environmental Protection where he will be raised until he's ready to be returned to the woods. Interesting.

So, yeah. But no word on where his mom is. Did they check and see? I'm sure they did. But there's just no answer. Oh.

I don't have that information anyway. Poor little cub. Yeah. But he's in good hands now and he'll be well taken care of and then returned to the woods when he's big enough. To the New Jersey woods? I guess so. It's a little black bear. Are they gonna, they are gonna release him in the wild?

That's what it says. After he's been in captivity for years and years? I'm nervous about that. I bet it's not long.

Okay. I mean, it's not gonna be like, well, now we've got a 400 year old bear. Let's put him back.

It's just gonna be like probably a year or so until he's, they grow quick. I know they do. I just, can you imagine a life of like, here's your food every day. Here's your food. Here's your warm place to sleep.

I think they have methods of training them how it works in the wild. Get out of here. Find your own food. Yeah. I don't think they're gonna domesticate the bear cub.

It's still a bear. All right. I trust you. Okay.

That's good news. We're gonna get ahead of the game this time. You remember six, seven? Oh, yeah.

Okay. Well, apparently there's a new phrase. I haven't heard it yet, but that's why we're gonna get ahead of the game. We've had a couple of these where I've said, Hey, this is the one to watch for.

This is the thing that's gonna happen. And then it doesn't. And then I go, that's because we talked about it. We got the, we got ahead of it.

And then it didn't become a thing. And I'm grateful for these old people talking about it. The kids are like, no, we're not gonna do that.

Gross old people. Okay. Go for it. Apparently it's on tic-tac a lot. It's called you the birthday. What?

Those are just words. You the birthday, you the birthday. So it's basically calling someone the birthday.

Oh, that's so birthday. So it means it could be a compliment or an insult is what they're saying. It could be used as an insult to like be like, oh, you're suffering from main character syndrome. Like, oh, you're trying too hard. You the birthday. You're expecting attention from everyone in the room.

Yeah. Or the compliment is like, you're a whole vibe. You look great. Like you are saying you are the birthday. Correct. The birthday. Bang in the birthday. Bang. Bang.

I don't think they're going to say bang in the birthday. No, they're not. So are people saying bussin anymore? Oh, I like to bussin. Just you.

You the birthday. I still say bussin. I don't care for it.

Bussin bussin. That's what I always said. You're still just going off on that? Yeah.

That one, that one's dead. What did you say about the birthday? You like it? Yeah, exactly. No, I said I don't. Why? Because I don't get it. I don't like it. Why? I don't care for it.

Okay. Don't use it. You know it's not going to be a thing because it's showed up in Forbes. They're talking about it in Forbes. They're talking about it on the Today Show. Yeah. Oh, the old people are talking about it.

So the young kids are like, mm-mm. Don't do it. Yeah.

Let the old people have that. They're talking about it on Yahoo. Okay. They're talking about it on Class of 97. That's exactly right.

Yeah. We're running around with the likes of Forbes, Yahoo, and the Today Show. I'm going to run with it. I'm going to use it. You the birthday. I'm going to use it no less than three times today.

I think that's how you could use it. You've got the weather. You have a big, big, big crook.

His name is Chit, and he is on TikTok, and I could see him saying you the birthday. You see? I do see. Right, because he had do it lady, and now I think you the birthday is right in the same vein.

Okay. And I like do it lady better. I like do it lady too. Do it lady. Yeah, do it lady is good.

What's that mean? And like do all of it at once every day every day. Yeah do it lady Yeah, so I like do it lady, but I don't care for you the birthday I'm gonna use it no less than three times today.

Super. It's my challenge for myself I'm not on the show to other people. You don't never see it coming. Yeah, I will Is that smoke you disappeared got it Okay, I heard this question asked and I want to ask it to you What's your bat signal like what is the thing that when you see it in the sky you're like I gotta go I Have to see it in the sky. Well, yeah, that's how bat signals work or is it just if someone Says hey, I need you can I borrow you for a minute and I show up Or if they schedule an appointment with me for a meeting no I show up. No, that's a bat signal No, it's not a bat signal is sign in the sky.

You're like, oh, I'm needed. I gotta go I gotta get Just the shape Whatever it is the shape this it's a sign Have you never seen Batman? Yes, I've seen Batman. It's a big spotlight Shape like a bat that they shine in the sky and it reflects off the clouds and he goes I got work to do I know what the bat signal is your question is confusing. I don't understand how it's confusing What do I look out and see in the sky?

Yes So that's a what light what shape? Sure That's that that is one side of it But then the other side is what's the thing that gets me to go? I'm needed I have to go which could be not in the sky No, it's both.

It's both of those but It's not like Batman ever gets an email and he's like I'm needed right which is what I would prefer a Texture a phone call that says hey, can you help me with this? Sure thing okay on my way So maybe you get a text with the same shape What same shape it's either in the sky or you get the text message. Why are you making this so confusing? Give me your example and I'll tell you my answer What is your bat signal a donut a Donut so it's the shape To go back to the original question you want to know what shape my bat signal light is sure If yours is a donut you go I got work to do and it's on the donut We need chantel, you know what we have to do put a big donut in the sky she'll come an actual donut No, just the picture of a donut the light. Yeah gobo of a donut. Yes Now you say Apparently I went too deep you did you always do Because I didn't think you just wanted to know what shape my bat light is because that would have been the easier question You know how Batman has that big spotlight that shaped like a bat that tells him he's got the city needs him What picture what shape in the sky is what gobo is your are you saying gobo? What is that? That's the thing that lays over a spotlight to make a shape Okay, what's your gobo? Yeah, that's the right question Your gobo is a donut Mine could be a number of things I would like for Like a group of people to be like we go fishing on a specific day or something or whatever We're gonna gather for an adventure We turn on the signal and everyone shows up so there'd be like a big red glowing fish Why red so that we could see it in the daytime too and you want anybody to see that sign in Camryn no only the people that know okay, and we be like we know where our rendezvous point is The the fish is on we need to go I gotta get out of here. Yeah, like oh I gotta leave because The the red fish lights on I gotta go is it only visible to you Other people would see it, but they wouldn't know the rendezvous points. They wouldn't know what it means.

They'd go. Oh weird a red fish. I Don't know what that means, but I'd see it and I'd go I gotta go it's on yeah The bite is on they say and it's time to go Okay, okay, that's what I want that's your you said there was a couple. Oh that was the first one Okay, I haven't thought that there could be many No, you have one Batman doesn't have many he has one right, but he has one task his light comes on that means crime I am needed For a job What a terrible thing that's his light that says you have to go to job Tell you what I don't want a Light that says you have to go to job light that says we need you at job No way What is your light signify mine?

Mm-hmm? Well, I thought it was to be fight crime See another thing you didn't specify I Assumed that it was pretty self-explanatory. I'm not a superhero because Batman ready to fight crime Slight shines and he's like I gotta go fight crime right so your bat signal is I gotta go help people in need That's a different one.

No, it's the same fighting crime and saving people. It's the same We've got to do a rewatch of Batman. I know Batman.

I have very familiar with Batman. There's no disconnect I'm not that is not the issue then what's your issue? The explanation of what you're trying to pull from me What's your bat signal you don't think that's for what? What is it for is it for fun is it for go to job is it for fighting the same thing right? I'm not a crime fighter.

You are in this analogy I Yeah, yeah, I mean I guess just use whatever and tell me ahead of time so that I can be I'll be in cahoots with the commissioner and stuff We'll figure it out See, I'm familiar with Batman Commissioner what Gordon? Well, are you ready for a little winter? No, well, that's what's happening here over the next couple of days I've been trying to get as much education on this as I can Here's what I know. There's a very large cold front pushing in from the coast the Pacific Coast It's going to be very windy today Yeah, I know and then tonight cloudy more wind and Then rain showers this evening that will turn into snow. No, yeah Yeah, that's for real and we have a freeze watch in effect because the overnight temperatures between tonight and Through Saturday are going to be very cold below freezing.

Yeah I was just showing my friend how beautiful my bleeding hearts plants are yeah, and he said Girl you better get a bucket and put your bleeding hearts under that bucket. That's right I'm gonna freeze is a widespread hard freeze with sub freezing temperatures down into the 20s possible This is everywhere from the Magic Valley Cross, you know the the desert there to Pocatello and then north all the way up into the island park area This is just a massive cold front moving through They're saying it will be late Thursday through Friday morning. This will be extended it's gonna be a couple of days of very cold temperatures and overnight freezing so Prepare your gardens. Hopefully you don't have too many sensitive plants out there But you're definitely gonna want to get things covered up overnight low tonight 32 overnight low tomorrow night 18 Overnight low Friday night 24 overnight low Saturday night 26 This is all my fault and I'll tell you why because because it's been so nice lately. Well, I mean This and last week not considering but before that it was lovely, right? The weather was great Mild super mild winter. I was like I'm gonna get rid of my winter stuff So I put all my winter stuff away Gloves sweaters put it all away And I was like I'm kind of tempted to sleep with the window open either because there is a little chill But it's not chilly enough to not have the window open, right?

Way to go. I know it's my fault cloudy windy colder couple snow showers today. Oh freeze watch cover up your stuff Save your sensitive plants So sensitive And That is what I know. Oh, just just you know be aware. That's bad news. It's not it's not terrible news Okay, just the bad news would be if we didn't know and we woke up and went.

Oh, no Everything's bad. That's you're right. Okay. You said something about going to get a tote because my friend said go get a bucket Right, but you're you're bleeding hearts are bigger than a bucket.

So I'm thinking we might be able to get some some of those stories Org totes and maybe we could put that over it. I still don't they're not tall enough My bleeding hearts are well, they'll they'll slump down. I'm worried about the width Though the slump downs fine. They'll recover from a slump down We got to protect we do because last year they suffered from something yeah Something not cool, but they came back and they're really looking great.

I know they are yeah, so I gotta keep you two of them, right? Yeah, that's and then all the stuff in the front We cover that with with a sheet the plants in the front should be okay because they're all bulbs well Yes, but they're all spring plants. So they're naturally hearty I'll double check but yeah, you should At the very least we've got a whole box of old bed sheets we can throw on there And we can try to keep the frost off of them a little bit There's a freeze warning Pay attention make sure you don't freeze your like all the stuff you de-winterized to water your yard because I've seen people doing that your hoses are out It's gonna freeze.

Oh don't Flood your basement because you've got stuff hooked up now, of course it would freeze on tax day Yes snow and wind on tax day. Yes What is the neighborhood pet peeve what is your neighborhood pet peeve I Don't like the guys who? Drive their dirt bikes down the road And and even the guys who are driving road legal motorcycles that just tear through the neighborhood Or do wheelies or any of that kind of see a lot of wheelies public streets.

Yeah in the neighborhood All loud and obnoxious it makes me cranky That's a peeve I have I Don't like that people Don't take care of their own Trash and garbage and stuff and so I get the joy of having that blow into my yard Every time the wind blows which is often. Yeah It is we live at the end of a street. So of course it's gonna blow into our yard, right? There's a dirty water bottle in the middle of our front yard right now I'm waiting to see who's gonna pick it up first the wind will blow it away today It'll be next to the fence It will be pinned to the fence Clean it up in another week like there's always no matter where you live There's always gonna be a neighborhood complaint. I don't like the way that guy Moses lawn Like I don't care how somebody takes care of their lawn. I don't care about that either But some people might complain about that is what I'm saying.

Yeah those people never take their trash can out Now there's always gonna be something I think if you never brought your trash can back in come on now You took it out. It's been two days. You've come home and left. Yeah, bring it in That one that one annoys me If someone doesn't mow their lawn I go You know come on come on This isn't the wilderness Do you think that people are Complaining about us as neighbors you don't know not even a little a Shovel in the snow. I put down salt. I make sure the sidewalk is nice. I think we have a nice looking What do they call it porch appeal curb appeal curb appeal. I think we got that going Better in some spots. Okay, but my point is you don't look at our house and go Yeah, you're right Am I cuz this wasn't super convincing There's it just a few areas that I see no I understand that's because it's your house yeah, if just in general We have nice curb appeal. Yeah, we do For sure We don't have derelict cars Playing around there are times I wonder if people think that I drive too fast down the neighborhood because there are times I certainly do drive a little fast a little loud To you I can hear your stereo inside the house before your car turns off when you get home Sounds like a you problem Okay And I listen to loud music.

I'm good with that, but man-o-man do you come in hot? So yeah, I wonder if the neighborhood Complains about that like oh comes that fast woman with her too loud stereo Do you think mm-hmm? Yeah, they're all gonna stand outside with their hands on their hips and go you need to slow down I never want to be the the person people are complaining about in the neighborhood I don't think anyone's complaining about or do you think it's our dog like maybe the neighbors are complaining about our yappy dog They might Sounds like a neighbor problem Because their dogs on either side are also barking So I don't know what you're talking in an actuality our dog doesn't start to yapp until the neighbor dog That's right. Yeah, and then once the neighbor dog yaps our dog goes. Oh, I know you're there right and then they egg each other on yeah So I don't But I don't necessarily have complaints about their dogs.

No, I Don't like when they get each other all riled up But that's just dogs but it is dogs. That's my complaint too. That's my neighborhood pet peeve as well as the dirt bikes Oh, that's top of my list. It's so annoying right four-wheelers side-by-sides dirt bikes they don't belong on The public road loud as loud can be just tear tearing through and wheelie.

Oh, yeah, and just obnoxious like too much The second it's a nice day here they come Put them away Go to the mountains or whatever. Yeah, go to the dirt bike court right go the door the dirt bike court Dirt bike I know that the tracks. I know they have them.

I know there's some well Do trails go ride your bike where you ride your bike? That's what I'm not in the hood not in the hood. Yeah The hood's not for your dirt bikes. That's what I'm saying Go to the track I want speed bumps You gotta call the city for that through the whole street We do live on a long stretch of road long wide road. That's why yeah They do it there because I want speed bumps on that road I don't think you'll ever get them. I don't want the little ones. I want the long ones You know what I'm saying? Yeah, the ones where the you go like if you Don't slow down your your whole tires are gonna have a bad time I don't know if I want speed bumps because I know because then you can't go as fast as you go Slow down in the neighborhood I want speed bumps to control you I People go way faster than 25.

Oh way faster. They always do. I know and then I have to say you slow down I do that a lot.

Yes, you do You're out pulling weeds yelling at people going you need to slow down. They're long I know they don't hear it. Okay.

They're like quiet down. I'll do a little makes you feel better. So that's what matters Those are the peeves of the hood I I I found out last night that I can fall asleep in about half a second It's funny that you found that out.

I've been trying to tell you that for 20 years now. It was pretty wild Like I was I was going through Uh, it was going through something I was just trying to find something to throw on and I've been watching a couple of videos and stuff and and We're kind of in between shows because we're waiting for Final episodes of stuff. Some shows have wrapped up.

We haven't really committed to starting anything new So we're just thumbing through the internet looking at youtube videos. I pull up This video of sheep It said 10 hours of sheep grazing relaxing calming Dude, I was about out with the sheep. Yeah I was struggling with the sheep and then I was like I got to not do that So I said I'll I'll put on something else and maybe I'll be more alert and then I found a campfire And I turned on the campfire.

Yeah, I was like a baby. I'm out. I didn't know that you were almost out with the sheep I was struggling with the sheep You want to know why because it was relaxing. I started to count how many were walking through the gate Did you really I was and then I was like that don't count sheep It totally did I was like, oh here they come because it opens on just this pasture And then I was like where there are no sheep in here And then here they come just slowly Well, that's interesting because you go well, it's not that So yeah, because I was falling asleep.

So I said no I gotta do something else that was the goal though to fall asleep. It was working So that's why I was surprised When he said well, it's not this well, I was hoping to stay alert a little bit longer So then I turned on the uh campfire campfire. I thought it was the campfire that really did you oh, I was toast Marshmallow that's a it's a joke. Yep I was toasted like a like a marshmallow. I was out Like I I was really Sandbags in the eyes. It's time that campfire really really did you yeah Does that what I left on I don't even know well You didn't have your mask on yeah, and I could hear you start to fade away and I said hey Let me let me have the remote.

I'll pick something. Yeah You're you're falling asleep. Oh, yeah, I was big time I don't know what I turned on but I do know that I woke up And it was an episode of the outdoor boys. It's always it always is And he was building something. Yeah, but just the sounds of him like You know like he's got a four-wheeler and he's cutting wood and he's building stuff and he's Like it's just like small little cuts of him different doing different things Even that was a little bit relaxing.

Yeah, just the noise of that and I was like Sleep again. Yeah, so if you really want to count sheep It worked I was it didn't work for me the sheep was not you did you try counting them though? No, you should have I got to about six and I was like this is I'm I'm done Yeah, but I don't think it's the sheep you just do that the second you lay down It has nothing to do with the sheep it has everything to do with you being like my brain has stopped I was ready for bed it worked Sheep and campfires, uh, we've had a camp like that We have maybe that's why we've had a camp where people were grazing sheep through the campsite And here they come we're like I guess walk on through And we've had good campfires, so We can go There you go. If you need something to help you fall asleep Count sheep.

There's a sheep grazing video on youtube. Yeah, and you can fall asleep to it pretty quick I just learned something you want to you want me to teach you something that I learned well sure Okay, I just learned that every airline requires their pilot and co-pilot to eat different meals In case there's something wrong with the food. It's an interesting fact It prevents them from both suffering from food poisoning simultaneously. Okay Potentially something so like if one has the steak the other has to have the fish Yeah, if they're on if now that's if they're on a flight that serves a meal if they're on just a You know a shorter flight like an idol falls to Denver or something like that They probably don't eat a meal or do they have to have a different meal while they're waiting? So here's what happens so The captain has seniority and so they get to choose their meal first and then the first officer takes the alternative mail So the captain gets to say I'd like the steak.

Yeah, and I bet the the the office the first officer is like You guys sold out the chicken. Yeah Many pilots choose to bring their own meals to avoid relying on airline catering altogether That's what I would imagine if you're making your own food then at least you know, you're gonna be yeah And do they have I don't think they have the Means for which to heat that up in the cockpit. So they probably have to hand that to One of the flight attendants to say hey, could you warm up my leftover chili? And then the the co-pilot goes you brought leftover chili chili.

Yeah What'd you bring? And he's like Crab salad and they're like this is gonna be a bad flight These are not the best options leftover chili and crab salad, but I'm also gonna microwave the crab salad So because I like it warm to effect everyone on board So this policy this is interesting and I need to do some research on this but the policy became common after Historical incidents where food poisoning affected multiple crew members bad time We got to land this plane somebody was intentionally trying to get the pilots sick I think That means possible, but probably unlikely don't bring chili Or hot crab salad no one wants to be near your hot crab salad Warm it up put it on a roll hot crab salad It's the jingle for hot crabs How'd it go again? Warm it up put it on a bun hot crab salad yum yum yum yum You can't do that's already taken So is yum by who red robin. Oh dang it Okay, let me think is that mouth why did three yum yum yum Hot crab salad on a bun.

It's all warmed up yum yum yum that sounds like somebody's jingle already Gross that is gross leftover chili in a dish Eat it with your buddy who's having fish Well today is april the 15th. It is tax day A day so notorious that even the Beatles wrote a song about it Tax man, that's the one yeah Yeah Tax refunds a lot of people are putting them away or paying off some debt with them a lot of people are not doing What's a refund? Yeah, I know I get it But instead of spending it on something fun like big ticket items or vacations of apparently a lot of people Are using them for everyday expenses putting them into savings or that's kind of the plan with the refund This year, which I think is uh is interesting.

Listen. I've I've long had the the goal of getting us as close to Zero on the balance sheet when I do taxes. I got very close last year and this year You did so good very very close.

We actually got money back from the state which hasn't happened It's maybe happened twice in our whole 20 years of filing jointly. Yeah. So that has been an interesting thing, but I'm getting closer and closer to getting us to zero because here's the deal. When you get a refund, that just means that you overpaid taxes and the government's like, oh, thanks for letting us have all this money interest free for a year. Here it is back to you. So, you know, it's not, it's money that you already had. You just didn't get it the whole time. You just get it in this lump sum and you go, yay, I got all this money. You go, nah, you could have had it the whole time. That's why I try to get to zero.

It's a tough game though. It's a hard thing to figure out to get to zero, but there are a couple of people doing some freebies today. And I don't know if these are, these are probably, you know, where, where applicable or if, if they're available, but Subway has like a Bogo foot long today. Oh. Yeah. And it says they're also going to give away 1,040. That's 1040 free subs to customers. I don't know how they're doing that, but that's a thing that they're doing.

And there's a bunch of other places that are doing stuff, but we don't have any of those places in East Idaho. Well, that's, yeah. Thanks for sharing that story. Well, that's why I only told you about Subway. But if you want to know like stuff that we don't have, Krispy Kreme's doing a free dozen glazed donuts when you buy it, doesn't it regular price today, which is nice. We don't have a Krispy Kreme. Church is chicken.

They have an eight piece bucket for five bucks today. We don't have that. Also don't like chicken on the bone. So you know what sounds not good to me? A bucket of chicken pieces.

No, thanks. That's not a treat. That's, that's like, here, here's something you'll hate.

Thank you. Did you ever, ever, ever, I mean, you did at one point because there was the traumatic experience where you bit into something gross and that's when you said, I'm never eating chicken on the bone. Was that a pretty common occurrence growing up for you? Like eating chicken on the bone? I think everybody has that grocery store fried chicken.

Yeah. And, and that was the big deal because you could feed a bunch of people. You could get a couple of big old bags of chicken and you'd go like, look, we got all this chicken.

I actually would dig in and grab a piece and there'd be sides of mashed potatoes and stuff. Like it was, it was an often enough occurrence. Yeah. My mom came home from work.

It'd be like, I brought chicken and we were like, yes. Right. You can smell it when she pulled into the driveway. Oh, absolutely. Yeah.

It's a, it was a big deal. Like we got the fried chicken dinner. Awesome. I know.

Easy peasy, right? And then I had a bad time and I went never again. Never again.

So, you know, that's, that's my trauma. How old were you? Do you remember how old you were? Oh, probably eighth grade. It was, it was like young adult. I was a young adult when it happened.

A young adult in eighth grade. Wouldn't you say? No, no. You're 13 in eighth grade. Yeah. That's not a young adult. That's on the cusp of teenager dumb.

Yeah. Old enough to go, I'm done with fried chicken. And what exactly happened? Let's talk this through. We don't need to. Let's listen.

Here's the deal. Chicken tender is great. Chicken fingers great. Chicken breast grilled great. Had that last night. Were you eating a leg?

What were you eating? It was a drumstick. A drumstick.

The tendinist of the drums. I had a bad time. I had a real bad time getting through it and it was very upsetting. And I don't even like to think about it right now. I'm having a real trauma response. I know we're going to work through it.

I can picture it. I was sitting at the dining room table. The sliding door behind me or French door, whichever, was behind me to my back. I was sitting. I was facing the east. I can tell you that specifically.

I could almost, if I thought hard enough, tell you what I was wearing. Are you serious? If I really, really tried, I could really think about it. No, but let's talk about what happened when you took a bite. Let's not. You grabbed your drumstick. You're so excited.

Was it crispy or original recipe? So I'm not going to talk about it. Josh, this is the only way that you get through it.

We just got to talk about it. Happy tax day. Sorry, you can't get a discount on your chicken because we don't have a church's chicken in town.

Tax man. Good luck with it today. You know, as we were talking about it, a couple of people were in the hall like, I've been done since February. Good for you. Yeah.

We've been done for a couple of weeks, but. But who cares? Oh, I did the thing I'm required to do every year. Because I'm the tax man. I just read what you want to talk about. You want to give away my secrets? What's your secret? You want to tell everybody my secret? I think there's a lot of people that have shortened versions of their name that they use on a regular basis.

And I'm an example of that. My real name is Joshua, my full name, I guess. Not real. But I go by Josh, right?

Yeah. Which is a shortened version. If you introduce yourself to people, do you say, hi, I'm Josh or hi, I'm Joshua? I say Josh. Hey, I'm Josh. You should say Joshua. And then just see if people call you that or if they just shorten it automatically. Alright, they're J-Bones. And then you can correct people and be like, actually, it's Joshua. Right.

I'm Diffie. There are people like that. I know. I mean, I've known some youth that are that way. They're like, no, I'm not Tim, I'm Timothy or I'm Zachary, I'm not Zach. Like, that's their preference, right? So that's fine, whatever.

But a lot of people will shorten it. J-Bones? Yeah, what up J-Bones? J-Dog? What's up?

Yeah. So, which by the way, was a very funny name that I had given someone, but they had another nickname that they preferred. And when I called them J-Bones, they were like, no, that is not my nickname. I go by this and I went, yeah, I'm gonna call you J-Bones because now I know it bugs you. Yeah, that's rude though. No, I know.

But it was, it was, it was deserved. Anyway, so I decided the other day, I said, you know what would be funny? Is if people started saying that their name was, was the long one instead of the short one. So if people reversed it, and instead of going by Josh, I said, I'm Joshua, it's long for Josh. Like, it's, I'm Josh, short for Joshua.

You would, like a lot of people would say that. I'm Ben, short for Benjamin. I'm Pat, short for Patrick, whatever.

People don't ever go, I'm Joshua, it's long for Josh. Yeah. Right. And I'm, I'm Richard, it's short for, or long for rich. Like, you know what I mean? Yeah, I know. That's a, that's a funny little turn on its head. I think it's funny. I do think it's funny too.

I call you, I typically call you Josh. Right. Unless. Unless you need something. Unless I'm mad at you or I need something.

Right. And then I go, Joshua. That's, that's the mad one. What's the, I need one. I need something one. Joshua.

Joshua. Yeah. Exactly.

There are two different ways of saying the exact same word. That immediately let me know what, what's going on. You're asking about bat signals earlier. That's, that's an audible one. So which one do you, like if I'm in a different room and I say, Joshua, do you go, I'm going to go this direction. Well, so that one, that one was kind of, a hybrid of the two.

That one's suspicious. So do you come to see what I need? I might, I might arrive cautiously.

I might go, what has she got going on? Because that one was, that one was neither angry or, or concerned. Or, you know, the one, when you do the, the I need help one, usually it's like you've, you've asked everyone else and they've all told you no. And so now you go, what, what mundane thing can she not do for herself that she could absolutely do, but doesn't want to. That's it. It's just that I don't want to. Right.

Like I'm all cozy in bed and I can't reach the remote bingo. Joshua. Right. And I go, she can handle it. I don't want to. Right. I know, but you can. And so I might delay my arrival on that one.

As years go by, your arrival delay has gotten longer and longer. What's that? What does that mean? That means in the early years, when I needed you and I'd say, Joshua, you'd say, yeah, what is it? And now I go, Joshua.

Joshua. Yeah. No, I get, I get to go three to five in there.

As years go by, it's gotten longer and longer. That's right. What does that tell you? I don't know.

You tell me. Maybe you should solve your own problem. No. I think that tells me that you just don't care to help me anymore.

Maybe. You're like, I can't be bothered. Maybe I've just learned that it's something you could absolutely do for yourself, but I've enabled you enough that I'm done enabling. You can't, you can't enable a person and then just stop one day. Been doing it for a lot of years. I've been slowly training you to solve your own issues. That's a lie.

So. You haven't been training me to do anything. Shall I tell you?

That's the one I do. Shall I tell you? I never hear you say that. Yeah, I know.

Because you called me by the nickname that you have for me. Yeah. And?

And what? Still, your arrival is slow. That's because I just don't want to arrive.

I just don't want to. Yeah. No, I get it. But I'm the bad guy. I'm doing my own thing. Leave me alone. Bingo.

That's what I'm saying. You can reach the remote. You're just going to have to get out of that blanket. You just hate me. No, no, I don't.

I'm encouraging and enabling you now to be independent. Joshua. See, that's a third one. You have all these really cool backyard ideas. We want to refurbish our backyard. Yeah, it's kind of an overhaul.

It is. It's a large project with some landscaping involved and new garden beds that I want to get done before planting in about a month. A couple of structures I want to build. And that's where the real money's at, isn't it? Is the structures? Yeah. Yeah, because we were looking at some sheds because you said, I think it'd be cool to have just kind of a creative space.

Yeah. I want a greenhouse and I want an outdoor creative space. Somewhere you can go and hang out in the backyard, even if it's rainy, especially if it's rainy. And you can just escape. You can go outside. You can leave a window open. You can be in the backyard. You can have the birds around.

Just a place to go. I could take out my fly tying stuff. I could sit outside and do some fly tying.

You could have like a... I want like a nice little reading nook. Yeah, like a nap reading kind of area. Yeah, some kind of just outdoor space that is a cozy little outdoor spot. But it's enclosed so that you're protected from the elements or whatever.

But that you can still open a door or a window and still get that kind of stuff. I think it's a great idea. So you were thinking maybe you're putting like a small desk in there. Maybe, yeah, some kind of workbench type thing. Cushionine couch area.

Something like that. Yeah, so it's like a... 8x10? 8x10 space.

Is that what we decided? Yeah, something not huge, but a nice little space. Man, they are expensive. Yeah. We did some shed shopping this weekend.

Just driving around looking at different places that sell sheds. Yeah, they're crazy. That is insane. I don't understand why.

I don't either. Why so expensive? Why so expensive sheds? I don't know, Josh.

I don't know. It's crazy how much a shed is. I got to do some more looking around. I haven't looked everywhere yet. There's more places to browse.

We're going to keep shopping. Here's what you do that I appreciate because I don't do this. You are definitely the person who shops around for the best bargain for the best equipment.

I try. You really are like, no, that's not a good quality product. They're charging too much for it.

This is a good quality project, but they're charging way too much for it. So I do appreciate that about you. What I don't appreciate is when I have to tag along when you're doing all of the shopping for these bargain deals. Because you would rather just go.

I don't do that. If I know I want something that I go, here it is. It's the first one I found. I bought it. And then you'll be like, well, you could have gone that's for so much cheaper. And I'll be like, I don't care because I didn't want to shop a million places for it. I get it. I understand. So I would have bought the shed at the first place we went to. No way. Do sheds ever go on sale? I don't know.

I mean, I'm just looking around like I thought, well, maybe I'd find somebody who was selling like a pre-owned shed. They're still insane. They're crazy. Do they ever have like blowout deals? Like we're kind of in shed season right now. That's why maybe it's is this prime. Peak time. Is this a prime shed season? Yeah, because people are doing some spring cleaning and they're like, we got too much stuff. We got to get a shed to put our bikes in.

That's true. We got all this snow equipment. We were, where are we going to put it?

So we're in peak season, I bet. But I don't want it to store a lawn mower. I already have, I have a bully barn for that. I want, I want a different space.

I know what you need. But then we got to get the furniture for it too. Oh no. I know. I just, I hate spending money. I know, I understand. I mean, I like spending money. I just, this doesn't sound like money I want to spend because I'm looking at the price of stuff going. Right. I just can't believe how much they want for an eight by 10 shed.

It's just astronomical. What if we just negotiated? How about?

Yeah. How about $20? Oh, $150? I'd pay $150 for a shed.

Yeah. I, well, I'll tell you what I won't pay is $6,000. No way. I won't pay $3,000. That's insane.

It is insane. For what? You don't even have a wall finished. For a small box. Yeah. With unfinished walls on the inside.

That's why I'm like, there's no way. And then, you know, I found some plans because I'm comfortable with like, I'll build it myself. I'm okay with that. But then you brought up a point of, yeah, but then what if there's a part that you get stuck on or you don't, you know, you don't fall in love with the project halfway through. And then you, you know, eventually it gets done.

And I went, yeah, no, that's, that's legitimate. I've, I've been around enough times to know that when you start stuff, sometimes it doesn't get finished. But sometimes it does. Sometimes it does. Yeah.

Absolutely. But I'll tell you, I don't want it built out of plastic. I want it, I want it structural.

I want a good one. Yeah. But they want this late by 10, $1,700.

It's crazy. This one, this $1,700 for this eight by 10. That's actually one of the lower end ones. This eight by 12 is 3,800.

This eight by eight is 2,700. Like they're, they're just nuts. I'm not trying to live in it. No kidding. No kidding.

I'm just, I'm blown away by the price on these things. It just doesn't even make sense. Maybe we just didn't know.

Eight by 12, 3,400. There is a good chance that maybe we just don't know how much stuff costs. We've been told that before. You guys just don't know how much stuff costs. I think it's less that and more of like, I'm not willing to pay that price. Like this one's adorable.

Two windows and a door, $3,400. What? I know.

But it's super cute. Could we buy one? I think they charge you more for the windows. So maybe we buy one for cheaper and then we can put in our own window. All you need is a, a, an ax.

What, a saw? Yeah, no, we're not, no. That's not how it's going. We could put in our own window.

Nope. We could. You don't even need a window. You could just put up a curtain. Now this one's pretty cute and it also has a loft. It's got a door and a window and a loft.

So it's a little bit taller. We don't need a loft. Four grand though. Yeah, we don't need a loft. I don't necessarily need the loft.

Although, we'll extra hideaway. No. With a little ladder that you could, you see. You know who would be in that all the time. I know. It's our daughter. I know. Okay, we'll keep looking. If you know where to get a good deal on a shed.

Like, what'd you say? A couple hundred bucks? 150.

Good quality, well built, $150 shed. Let Chantel know. What is the last song that you want to hear before you die? Whoa. You're getting like super deep today. Yeah, we're getting real. Why?

We're getting real in here. I have no idea. Staying alive.

No, because that's probably someone who needed it to keep 100 to 120 beats per minute in CPR. I don't want that. I don't want that. I really don't know. That's a crazy question. I mean, you could really run the gamut here. It could be like a song that your mom sang to you when you were little. Or it could be a song you sang to your kids when they were little.

Or it could be your wedding song. It could be, I don't know, I'm thinking of like a million right now. I'll tell you what it's going to be. It's going to be a song that doesn't exist yet that comes out in like 30, 40 years from now.

Okay. That's the last song. Whatever is coming out 30, 40 years from now. People always ask about like what's the last meal that you're going to eat.

But nobody asks about the last song you want to hear. Right. Something in 30 to 40 years from now. Okay. That means you're going to last for a long time? Well, I hope so. Me too.

You know. Me too, buddy. We're in this for the long haul. So whatever the number one song is in...

It's going to be in 2060. AI garbage. No way. I hope not. I'm not listening to that.

It'll be some amazing song. Like what? I have no idea. It doesn't exist yet. Okay.

But if it did exist right now, what are you thinking? What are some of the songs you're thinking of? I don't know. I'm too on the spot.

The first thing that came to my head when I thought of this question was I don't even know the name of it right now, but it's that Led Zeppelin song that used to sing and you just don't only sing, oh, darling, darling, darling. Right. Yeah. I like that one. But then I also would want to hear our wedding song, one of our wedding songs. Over the Hills and Far Away is the Led Zeppelin song. But I'm trying to think.

Yeah. I feel like I would want it to be some sort of sentimental thing. I wouldn't want it to be just some random song. Like I don't want it to be like, I'll tell you what, it'd be easier to say songs I don't want to be. You don't want. Like I don't want it to be Angel by Sarah McLaughlin. I don't want it to be Celine Dion. My heart will go on. Why not?

I don't want it to be that song. Yeah. No way. No way. Your ship is sinking.

Yeah. I don't want that. I don't want it to be Cotton Eye Joe. I don't want it to be. I don't want it to be The Year of the Cat. I don't want it to be.

The Year of the Cat. Any of the Red Hot Chili Pepper songs. Oh. Not just the one that I don't like. I just don't want it to be a Red Hot Chili Pepper song. What about Creed? I prefer not. Yeah. I don't mean that. I don't want that. Yeah. I don't. It's just going to be me singing by your bedside. That is actually way more realistic.

And I also would prefer not. It did. Ouch. Listen. It's not about you.

It's that I would rather hear something else. It's not. It's slam on you.

It kind of feels like a slam. I would rather I want you to be there, but I'd prefer you not be singing. Wow. No. Not wow.

Ouch. Sometimes you got to let the pros do their thing. Don't want me to usher you to the other side. Singing.

With this voice of... Can you take me home? Yeah. No. Well, too bad because... No.

That's what it's going to be. Great. You better... Take me away. You better go before me.

Remove me from this misery. For some reason, he won't come out of this coma. It's weird. He also, his arms are stuck either side of his head. His fingers are firmly pressed in his ear canal.

We can't figure out what's going on. Sing louder, Chantel. See if that wakes him up. Oh, I will. Yeah, I know.

I'm calling the job. I sing better when I get louder. He twirred his face as wincing like he's in pain.

What is going on? Sing more. You cut me deep.

Just now. Cut me real deep. It'll be fine. It's not personal. It's just... It's not you.

That's right. I would just prefer something else. It's not you. It's me. It's my own preference.

That's all. Would you rather this or that? Would you rather fly like a butterfly? Sting like a bee. I was waiting for that.

Float like a butterfly, sting you like a bee. Which, okay. Or.

Let's see again with the singing. Jump like a grasshopper. I'm pondering. I know you are. You always do.

Because here's the deal. The fluttering of the butterfly as they flutter by is... It's a little bit kind of like... I feel like it'd make your head hurt. Like, aw. Like they don't fly just like glide like a bird.

That's a lot of flopping. Look at it. Think about it in your head.

Yeah, I know what you're saying. They're kind of all over the place. How long is a butterfly lifespan? Well, if you're a migratory one, it's a lot longer.

Two to four weeks. Okay, but look up migratory monarchs. Because they live a long time. They are like a monarch or a morning clothe can live up to nine to ten months.

Yeah, they have to migrate. How long is a grasshopper lifespan? I'll tell you something. I was just thinking about grasshoppers because... We get them. And they like to destroy my plants. Yeah. And I don't care for them sometimes. Okay.

And sometimes we find praying mantises that are eating the grasshoppers. And I don't mind that at all. Right. Life cycle. Birds eat them as well. We have lots of birds. I also know that the grasshoppers also take care of other insects.

So I'm happy to have them. Yeah, it's all part of the ecosystem. But eat the insects, don't eat my plants. Especially my hollyhocks.

They destroy my hollyhocks. Okay. Okay. Hollyhocks just a weed. People tell me that. And they go, I don't care because it's pretty. I like dandelions too. And they're a weed too. Yeah, go ahead. Did you know grass is just a weed? That's right.

Go ahead. Grasshoppers typically live about a year. So you're going to live longer as a grasshopper.

Yeah, but... But you're not... You're not becoming a butterfly or a grasshopper. You're just flying like one or you're jumping like one.

That's a good point. Well then I'm taking the jumping. I'm taking the butterfly. Because the flying... If it's just me and I'm flopping around as me, forget about it.

No way. I'm going to jump and then I'm going to do that wing thing that claps and then land. Like a grasshopper? Yeah. Okay. Do you not know the wing thing I'm talking about? No, I do.

I absolutely do. So you're going to do that wing thing, where they jump in the air and they go clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack. And they land. That's what a grasshopper sounds like.

I know what you're talking about. I think I'm looking at a butterfly flying and it's nice. It's not jittery, or jumpy, or weird. It is.

No, it's nice. I've watched them in the backyard. Very floppy about. Oh, we gotta go to the butterfly haven.

Yeah, good times. So anyway, I'm picking grasshopper. Butterfly.

Why would you rather this or that? A couple of weeks ago I was telling you about some forbidden places that I wanted to go. Forbidden? Yeah. Like, there was the island in Italy. Oh yes, abandoned.

Abandoned. Not forbidden. Well yeah, I mean they are forbidden. You can't go there. Why? Because you can't. It's off limits. They say you can't go there. Who?

The governments of those places. I didn't see that. They are. Are you sure? I'm positive. You can't go there. How come people know what's on those places?

Because they were used once. Like the one in Italy, the island in Italy was once used as like a plague. They would send out the plague victims there. You can't go there.

And like the one in the United States, the North Brother Island, that's the one that they used for typhoid patients. You can't go there. Why? Because you can't. They won't let people go there. I bet you can go there.

I'm just looking. Like I'm looking at the one that was the quarantine station for the incoming ships in 1793 to 1814 in Italy. That one.

Yeah. But can you go there? Like I don't see news reports in 2014 and 15 said the building and rusting artifacts still existed.

I don't think people have been there like frequently. But I think you can go there. You can't go to the one, the North Brother Island. You cannot go to that one. They won't let you.

You can't go to the North Brother Island. Yeah. It's close to the public. It's a bird sanctuary now.

You can't go there. Now you've upset me. I'm not trying to upset you. I mean, like I'm looking at like people that have snuck in. Yeah.

Via kayak. Yeah, exactly. You can't. It's off limits. It's like Chernobyl. You can't go there. People do go there. Yeah. But they advise you against it.

Okay. So I was looking at some other places that are forbidden that I also want to go to. Do you want to know about some of them?

Well, I was just reading specifically about this North Brother Island. People will do it. They have to, if you go, they end up having to hide their kayaks because the island is constantly monitored via boat. So people that do go arrive in dark, stay 24 hours and leave in dark. That's what I'm saying.

They're forbidden. They'll wait until past midnight to leave the island again. And then people said, anyway, happy visiting. Yeah, I know. So people go. That doesn't mean that it's acceptable.

Okay. Or that you're allowed. Or that they go. That's why we're going to get there. So you found more places that you want to go? Yeah.

Okay. Forbidden places. Abandoned also?

Not necessarily abandoned. Okay, so. So there's a place in Japan.

Yeah. And it is, they call it the soul of Japan. And it has these two wooden shrine complexes and inner and outer. And they are taken down and rebuilt every 20 years to symbolize renewal. Interesting. A lot of people go here because it's like this beautiful place.

I don't know if people go there, but they tear down and rebuild it as a way of teaching people how to keep traditions alive. Okay. It's in, let's see.

It's called the, I don't want to even say it, the Ice Grand, Icy Grand Shrine in Japan. Okay. I'm looking here.

It says there are 125 shrines at this particular place that are completely replaced every two decades. I know. Isn't that crazy? Yeah.

They replace a couple every year or whatever, but there are 125 of them. Cool. It's a 1300 year old tradition. Come on. It is interesting. Let's go there. Not a forbidden place. It is. It's on the forbidden list. I don't understand. It's forbidden.

It is, it's limited to priests and members of the Japanese imperial family making it off limits to tourists. Interesting. There you go. Okay.

Then there's that tomb in China, the burial place of China's first emperor, and it has the Terakata army. Oh yeah. Very cool. I want to go see that. I saw a guy who went there and they have replica Terakata soldiers and he bought one and had it shipped to his house and not knowing how big it was.

It was like decent size and really heavy and he's like, this is a bad idea. Now I have this. I thought they were letting people access that place and then they must have put it off limits again. I think they've, you can't go walk down where the Terakata army is.

You can see it from observatory level. Okay. Right? But it's all protected.

So you can't go where people were when it was built. Okay. I want to go to that. Okay.

Then in Norway they have a doomsday vault and this is- Oh, I know all about that. I know. It's so cool. That's awesome. They have everything in there. In case of a global catastrophe.

Cheers for disease. All kinds of different seeds and plants. Tons of stuff stored away in there.

In a mountain. I know. Yeah. Very cool. Whose idea was that?

Because smart way to think. And then there's a snake island. Sounds like a place I do not want to go. It's in Brazil. It's packed with thousands of golden lance head pit vipers.

Yeah. Most venomous snakes in the world. I won't go. I know.

I want to see it though. Nope. I just want to go on a helicopter and look. No thanks because you know what's going to happen? What? Some snakes going to jump up from a tree and grab the helicopter and pull us down. Now we're part of snake food.

No thank you. Not happening. It's a little dramatic but- Fact. That's what happens. You try to fly over snake island. Forget about it.

No way. Then there's a place in France. It's their caves and they've got 17,000 year old cave paintings.

Cool. And it was closed to the public in 1963 because human breath was damaging the prehistoric art. Whoa.
