Send your shout outs, send your comments, your remarks, send ideas for the show, whatever you want to send. Yeah, great idea. I love it.
WakeUpClassie97 at gmail.com. All right, I saw this this morning as I was clicking around on the internet and it made me laugh. There is a guy who went into Bath & Body Works and he picked up a candle and then he walked around the store with like a body cam on going, oh wow. And just walking up to random people to get them to smell the candle. He got employees to do it. He got all kinds of people just walking around going, wow, and holding it out and everybody just smells the candle.
And they're like, oh yeah, cool. And he walks away to the next person. He walked to one person who works there and was like, wow, and held it out and she smelled it. And then was like, yeah, that's the this one. And we have all this other stuff.
So he had to get the whole sales spiel and then he just walked away to get the next person to smell it. It's fantastic. It's a great idea. I totally am a smeller. So I would absolutely do that. You are not. You would be...
If somebody walked up and was like, here smell this, I'd be like, I'm okay.
Yeah, you would. Thanks, buddy. Yeah, you would say, thanks. No. Yeah, no thanks. Because I can't ever get you to do...
But he probably got a dozen or more people to smell it. That's awesome.
I couldn't want to try that test.
Yeah, he's like, that's a good one. That's a good one. Oh, wow. That's a good one. And now the lady who works there, I just watched the video again. The lady who works there walked up to him and held up one for him to smell.
Smell this one. If you're like, this one, try this one. That's what the way Bath & Body works, isn't it? Bath & Body Works works. You walk up and smell stuff. Bath & Body... Oh yeah.
Yeah, this is the whole point. Just to walk up and smell stuff. You said Bed, Bath & Beyond? No.
And they're out of business. That's right. They're kind of one and the same, aren't they? No. Kinda.
No. Kinda. Not even. But kinda. But not even close. Same. Nope. Bed, Bath & Beyond had a section of candles. Right. Bath & Body Works has no appliances. They are candles and lotions. That's what they are. They don't sell you massage chairs and bedding and towels. We
are candles and lotions. Yeah. You should rename it. I know. From Bath & Body Works to candles and lotions. Candles and lotions. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway. That's funny.
If you want a good, easy, fun little thing, just grab a candle and walk people up. And walk people up? Yeah. Walk around and walk it up to people and have them smell it. Walk people up. Yeah. Maybe tell them what flavor it is too. Like, oh, this one's great. It's Vampire Mist. They have weird names. I don't know what it is. Anyway. It's a pretty funny, easy prank. That is funny.
And it'll make you smile. Should we start the show? Let's do it. We already have three of them set up this year. What does that mean? And I did a fourth over the weekend. It's Christmas tree day today. Yes. And I have now successfully set up four.
One, two, three, three, four. You'd have done four.
Thank you for confirming what I said. Yeah. What'd you notice?
Well, we have a classic Christmas elf. That's right. His magic hasn't happened yet. I'm waiting for his magic to happen. But it looks like maybe his magic did happen. That's right.
He's in the tree. That's correct. And his little buddies have an a wrecking ball moment. Yeah, I see that. Having a Miley Cyrus wrecking ball. I see that. Yeah. Roland, the classy Christmas elf, is all a tangled in the tree. I see that.
Okay. I guess his magic has arrived.
Well, he isn't where he was when we left.
It's true. That's what I'm saying. Okay. Hurray. How about that? The magic is here. That's very exciting.
Anyway. And now we're going to have to post about that.
I got distracted. I'm sorry. You were saying.
I was just saying it was Christmas tree day. And then you started looking at the tree. And that's when you found Roland.
Oh, Tannenbaum, as they say. That is correct. Yep. If you haven't already put up the tree, now's a fine time. I would say this is probably about the time when we were harvesting our own live tree. This is about the time we would go get a real tree and get it set up. Because we wanted to wait a little bit later so that the pine needles didn't fall off and didn't dry up and die off. And so we didn't do the live tree thing until later and to the month. I don't remember quite honestly.
Yeah. I feel like it was around this time.
I like having it up for longer. Yeah.
And I was thinking about like this year, if you were harvesting your own, the roads probably.
I'm saying harvesting. That's what it's called. I know, but it sounds so weird.
Well, we went out into the woods and got a tree. It wasn't like you went to the tree lot.
No, I get it. And you bought a live tree. You had to go harvest a real tree. Isn't that what they call it? I don't know. It just sounds weird. When you say harvesting, just say chop down or cut down or chop down. Those are violent. Gathered or when we got, yeah, listen, are you listening
to cut your own Christmas tree in Idaho, you need a permit from the Forest Service or BLM, right, which allows you to harvest trees.
I get it. I understand. I'm using the right word. I know, but it just sounds so weird.
Agriculture? Yeah, I guess. Is that why? Yeah, maybe. It sounds so like farming. It sounds so like right on the word.
Yeah. Well, it is exactly. Anyway, when we chopped down our own tree, it was always like super cold and snowy and we had to hike a little bit or we would drive up scary icy roads and then almost fall off a cliff. Like that was scary times. We would run into moose. Yeah, moose followed us one year. That was weird. Yep. Because he was just real curious about what we were doing.
I didn't care for it. I was like, please go away.
It was a juvenile moose.
Yeah, it doesn't matter. One little set off and he's charging us.
Possibly. Yeah. But we were real patient. Wild animals. We made a lot of noise. I don't know why I decided to follow us down the trail as far as it did, but then across the creek and we were okay.
Everything was fine. What are you guys doing in my house?
I was more worried about bobcats, honestly, than that moose. I didn't even see any bobcats. Yeah, you never do. That's the thing about them.
That's why we have to have eyes.
On the back of our heads. We have our mountain lions and bobcats and stuff. Yeah. Anyway, it's Christmas tree day is the whole point. A fine day to set one up if you haven't yet.
It is a fine day. What finer day than this?
Do it today and you know, happy Christmas tree day. Oh, ten and bound. Bound?
Bound. It's A-U-M.
It's true. It is. You are correct.
This is kind of interesting. Somebody had said something they talked about on the radio in a different area of the country said, without naming your job post something you say 20 times a day at work.
Something I say 20 times.
It doesn't have to be 20 times. Just maybe something that you say repeatedly at work.
Well, it's an interesting line because it would be, see your total at the first window. Have your total at the first window. Yeah, exactly. Are you going to be using the app for awards today?
Yeah. Medium or large? Yeah. Yeah.
And what's something you say? Something I say at work every day. I mean, when I leave, I go like, later, I'm out.
No, but in relation to your job.
Yeah. But I'm just saying, I have to think toward the end because that's consistent. I do the same routine. Okay. And so I was trying to find common routines within, because I talk so much.
Yeah, I know, but with something that you say on repeat. Oh, I do. Not here, but at my other job, there's a handful of things I say at repeat. What's your name? Have you been in here before?
I do say, would you rather this or that?
That's true. You do say that every day. You say, check out the podcast.
That's right. You say that every day. Yep. Everywhere you get podcasts. I say, and that is good news. That's coming up in a minute.
I also say, I'm sorry, no refunds. I say that quite a bit.
That's a good one. Unfortunately, no refunds. We offer no refunds. Unfortunately, no refunds.
Unfortunately, all sales are final. And then I get a lot of cranky people at me, but I'm sorry.
Them's the rules. That's door to policy. If all sales are final, then all sales are fine. That's store policy. Is that some music? That's policy.
No, I don't. I don't actually say that.
You should say that.
That is policy.
I have said it before, but I don't say that regularly.
Something else that gets said in here is, oh, here we go. That's one that's said by either one of us. Oh, here we go.
Here we go. What?
Oh, time to talk to each other. Here we go.
30 seconds. And then I'll say, here we go. Josh, 15 seconds. And then you go, oh, I know. And then you'll slowly put on your head. Like you've got all this time in the world.
15 seconds is a long time. I like when you go, oh, here we go. And there's like a minute or so. And I go, really? I'm just going to sit here and stare at you for a whole minute.
I don't do that anymore. I don't. Not as often. Not that far in advance.
You're getting better. Thank you. I know. Understanding that 15 seconds is a long time. Thank you. I know.
We give away the phone number quite a bit. Sure. And because we give away this phone number so much and because I use my other phone number at my other jobs so much. You don't even know your own phone number.
No, it's just that I get so confused sometimes. And then I've left messages before where I go, 208. When?
Where am I? Yeah. So that's confusing for my poor old brain. I'm sorry. I hear that. We'll sort you out. Have you ever answered? Because you've worked at other radio stations before. You bet. Have you ever answered the phone
or open the microphone and said you're at the radio station? There's been a couple of times. The good news is that I've practiced a lot at it. There's only been one time that I've on an open live microphone said the name of the wrong radio station once in my whole career. There have been times where I've been pre-recording a show for another market or something and I've forgotten which market I'm in or talking about and I'm doing a routine and I'm just like going through it and I've said the wrong thing.
But I go back and fix that. So yeah, that's easy. But I've only one time on a live mic said the wrong and it was years ago. It was over four years ago. That checks out because yeah.
Because when you're one place for 17 years and then you go to another place, it's kind of hard to forget.
Well, my job has mostly every job I've ever had. It's been like there's a lot of phone answering and I've worked at a school for a long time. So it was like high school, high school. And so when I got my new job that's how you answered the phone.
High school. I think you probably said the name of the high school. I did.
I just didn't want to say it. I know. I get it. But if you just answered the phone, high school. So that was a trick for me because when I got my new job, I went, oh, I'm not at the high school anymore. Hold on. Let me remember where I'm working. Hold on.
That's a good question though. You should ask that on socials. I should ask that. Yeah, it's a good question.
The 20 times is a lot. Something you say 20 times.
And maybe not a day. I mean, that would be like if you're doing something like you're going to get the same things that we've pointed out here. You're going to go, are you using your app for rewards? Like I would say maybe 20 or more times a week you say something. That'd be four times a day or so.
No, I guess it's just maybe name something you say repeatedly
throughout your day at your job. That's a good way to put it. Yeah. Yeah.
I think so. Yeah.
Ask that question. I will ask that question. Okay. Yep. Thank you. Thank you. Hey, here's some good news. What? What are you eating? I'm not eating anything. Oh, I just hear a rapper.
Well, I got my breakfast out of my bag.
I see. I see. Well, here's good news. In Colonial Heights, Virginia, three first graders are being celebrated as real life heroes after they helped save their teacher's life during a frightening moment in the classroom.
Listen to this. I am their teacher. Madison Swift was working with a student and eating at the same time when she suddenly began choking and breathing. And that's when her students, Derek, Bryson and Colton jumped into action. Derek hit the classroom emergency call button and told the office what was happening.
Bryson sprinted into the hallway to grab another teacher and Colton stayed right by Madison's side, giving her like, pats on the back to try to dislodge the food. And their quick thinking brought help fast. And Madison believes it saved her life. She said, they 100% saved my life. And the bond that they built from day one helped them act without hesitation. To thank them, Madison let all three choose a prize from a classroom, classroom treasure box. Oh, I bet so. Just a small reward for three very big heroes that jumped into action when they needed to. Very scary moment. What do you think they picked?
Sticky hand? Slap bracelet?
No, I bet they got something a little nicer. I don't know what's in the treasure box.
Sticky hands and slap bracelets. It's possible. It's possible. Which is a cool prize. I actually want a sticky hand right now. You know what I do with it? Flap it at me. Yes.
Yeah. No, you don't get one. Because I don't want you to have it. Anyway, congrats to those three. Way to go. What grade first? The first graders. Good job, buds. Yeah, three first graders.
Way to hop into action. That's awesome. Way to emergency hustle. That's good news.
You know that game you can play where you go, what's worse? And then you say something bad. And then somebody else goes, okay, okay, okay, what's worse then? And then they say something bad. Okay. I got one for you today.
Okay. What's worse than trying to put on a sock and you have a toenail hang nail and your toenail hang nail gets caught on your sock. What's worse than that?
I don't know. You had a moment though. And I was so happy I was there for it because you really grossed yourself out.
Yeah, that's so bad. That's one of the worst things in life.
I would say when you're putting on pants and you get your foot in the knee hole. Yeah. That's a bad one because then it rips a little bit more. And then you go like, I can't, and you almost fall over sometimes.
Well, then just put your foot downwards. Not outward. Point like a ballerina. Yeah.
Why are you putting your foot? Yeah. Sometimes it catches the hole. Just down. Point your toes down. Just suck your toenail in.
What do you mean? I didn't even know I had a toenail until I got snagged. And then I went, take the sock off, go take care of the hang nail, put sock back on. Yeah. I hate that feeling. It's especially bad if you're in bed and you snag it on the sheet. Cut your toenails.
What are you doing?
Bro, you don't know you have a hang nail until the hang nail is there.
What? I don't think I've ever caught a hang nail on a sheet. Really?
Really? Yeah. Like if you just move your foot in bed and then you're like, it like scratches the... Can't say I have. Oh, it's so gross.
I've had like a long toenail be an issue in a sock, but not, I've not snagged.
Oh, who needs to trim their toenails now? I don't. You just yelled at me to do it. And then you said you had your long toenail snag in a sock.
I'm not snag. I've been like, my toenails are too long for this sock right now, but it hasn't snagged. I've been like, I feel I have a toenail and I go clip them right then. Yeah, that's what I did. Yeah, but you were grossed out.
Yeah, because that is such a icky feeling.
Did it tug your toe the wrong way? What happened?
It's just a heebie-jeebie. Uh-huh. No, it doesn't tug my toe the wrong way. You just feel it. I don't know how to describe it. You've never had this happen to you? I have not. Not even in a sock?
No, because I keep my toenails clipped.
Barrow? Barrow? You're making it sound like I got gangly toenails.
I didn't say anything about gangly toenails. Not a word. I said I have not had this issue because I keep my toenails clean. That's it. My toenails are pretty clean. I never said and you don't. Not once.
That's the impression that you're giving.
You're the one with the issue with your toenail, not me. I'm saying I don't have that problem because I keep them tight.
I can't even believe that you've never had this problem. I've never had this problem. That's crazy to me. And it's always my pinky toe, which is barely even a toenail. Why is that one the one? I don't know. I don't know. And so then when I'm like, okay, I got to go trim this hangnail, I'm like, I can't even find it because my toenail is so small.
Well, how's that the one hanging up on the sock? I don't know. Put that toe away. I think your whole toe is sticking out. And then you go to put on the sock and you go get back in there. But I think you got a jingly toe.
I should have. I should have kept it when I trimmed off the toenail. No, the hangnail.
No, and then saved it for you. Nope. I knew where that was going. The second you said it and no, absolutely not. Okay.
I don't even know how a hangnail forms. When the skin around your nail gets dry, damaged or irritated, causing small tears or splits. Hmm.
See, because a hangnail isn't the nail. Isn't it the skin around it? I feel like it's the nail. I think you just had a jangly nail. Stop saying jangly. Well, you said gangly, which I think means like skinny. So I think jangly is a better word. It's spelled the same, but the G is pronounced with a G instead of a G. Like Jeff.
Hangnails or raggedy bits on toenails. The same thing. Raggedy bits? Yeah, that's what it says.
Raggedy or jangly, whichever you prefer. I don't have that issue.
I like it. I like a raggedy bit. I actually do not.
No, I know you don't. You were like sick to your stomach about it.
Yeah, eebie-jeebies, man. It's like everybody's got that thing. Nails on a chalkboard. Cotton balls. Yeah, exactly. Those that doesn't bother me.
When cotton does that slippery thing, sometimes there's blankets that'll do it where the fabric like slides and it kind of goes, I don't like that.
That's how a toenail feels when you try to put on a sock. Hangnail. Clip your toenails. Bro, it's dry skin. Bro.
Loathing up your toes. I don't know what you gotta do. Why do you have dry feet? I don't know. Loathing up your feet. It does say, hold on,
maybe I don't want to read this on the air. Okay. It says, could be from improper nail trimming. Yeah. But what is improper nail trimming?
If you trim them too short or if you don't, or if you round them off weird or if you don't lotion your feet.
Guess who's going to have to lotion my feet? You. No. No.
I will cut my hand on your jangly toning.
He agreed to a vow.
Negative. I'll get the lotion. And then put it on your hands and then put it on your feet. Sounds good. That's a problem solved. Good luck. Did you clip it? Are you good to go?
Oh yeah. You don't have the issue now. No, I wear socks all day long. Great.
So what's worse? Not much. No, I know. What's easier to solve? Not much.
It is pretty easy to solve, but it's, oh, glad that's over. How do you feel about Christmas party plus ones? Like if your work is like, oh, we're having a Christmas party and you can bring your spouse. Do you enjoy coming with me if it's my work Christmas party? It's fine. Would you rather not?
No, it's fine. Okay. I would like to be where you're at. Yeah. Celebrating? Sure.
I don't have a problem with it, but I was reading something that said most spouses would rather not attend their spouses. Really? Work Christmas party. Yeah. And I don't mind. And as like an employee of the place, I like meeting everyone's partner. Yeah.
Like it's cool to see like, oh, that's who that person hangs out with when they're not here. Right.
Yeah. And sometimes I've been at places where they bring their kids rather than a spouse. And I enjoy that too because they go, ah, I really love working with your mom. And the kid is like, I don't care. Yeah. Okay. I'm going to go play now. Yeah. But I enjoy seeing that side of people's families.
I mean, you do see a lot of people for a lot of hours every day.
In one aspect of their life.
Right? That's right. Yeah. And the professional aspect of their life. Yeah.
Which sometimes they're not always quite themselves when they're at work. Okay. Like they're a different person. Yeah. When they're at home with the people that they're comfortable with.
Right. I'm trying to think if I've ever been in an experience where I've met somebody's significant other and been like, they should not have come. Oh, no. I can't think of an instance, but I think that would be fun if you were like, you know, I understand why you are the way you are at work because if you have to live with this person all the rest of your whole life, I would get why you would be like, I'm going to be at work late tonight. Oh, that's sad.
I know it is. We have our company Christmas party. It's on Friday. Yeah. And it's just for employees. Right. Spouses were not invited.
Right. Which is interesting because it's like a middle of the day thing. Yeah. But you feel bad about. I feel bad because you work here. So I get to hang out with my spouse. Nobody else does.
Hey, I brought my wife. Yeah. Hey. Oh, wouldn't that have been nice? Yeah.
She also works here. Maybe we'll have to sit apart. Yeah. Just to make it fair. Yeah. Yeah. But I am not talking to her. Yeah, we're not talking. So it doesn't count.
We didn't arrive together. We're not leaving together. We're not sitting.
Oh, we're not arriving and leaving together. No, we're just coworkers. Oh, all right. Two cars. Got it.
We are not married for two hours or however long. We are only coworkers.
Okay. Sounds like a plan.
Has anybody said to you like, oh, it would be nice if I could bring my wife to the Christmas party.
We'll get her a job. No, I have not. I have not heard anything. Okay, good. It's only been me saying, that feels like I'm special. Yeah. Like I got a bonus.
There's a lot of grumblings. Not that I've heard. Would you ever not tell me that there was a Christmas party because you didn't want me to come? What's that? What are you asking? Like if I didn't work here and there was a Christmas party and you could invite your spouse and you were like, I don't really want my spouse to come. I'm not. So then I say, hey, is your company having a Christmas party? Not this year. Nope.
Can't do it. It wasn't this last Friday. Nope. Didn't happen. Not in the budget. Yeah. Nope. Can't have one. Not this time.
And then your spouse sees pictures on social media.
Yeah. Well, it was this gathering.
Hey, I wasn't there.
I didn't go. That's sad. No one invited me. It looks like you were there. AI. Someone AI'd me in there. Yeah.
I don't mind going to your Christmas parties. I mean, I know most of the people here, but in years past when I didn't work with them, I enjoy going. I like meeting people.
Well, and you hear stories too, right?
Like if you talk about your coworkers to your spouse, then you're going to, you're going to have like, oh, I've heard about you. And plus a party's a party. Free dinner, free lunch, free dessert, whatever you get, to take advantage. A party's a party. I mean, come on. I'm surprised to see that a lot of spouses are like, no, thank you. Yeah. I'll pass. Yeah. I wonder why. I like it. Yeah.
I do too. I wonder why you'd be like, no.
Plus as the spouse, you get, no, there's like no responsibilities. You get to just go kind of sit in the corner and just people watch and be like, my husband's told me about you.
That's what I said. You get a lot of that out. You get a lot of that like, I know your story.
You didn't do that thing that he
asked you to do three weeks ago. That's right. I know he's still waiting on that deadline. Look at you. Well, you're my not plus one plus one because you're your own invitation.
Yeah. So I'm nobody's plus one. That's right. I'm my own plus one. Yeah, look at you. Snaps. Emery had a date on Friday and as she was telling us what she was going to be doing, she also let us know that they were going to be eating dinner at her date's house. That's right. And that his mom would be cooking. And she was in a little bit of a panic because she doesn't, she's a very picky eater.
I would agree with that.
She doesn't like a lot of food. And she also doesn't like to eat in front of people. So when she told us that she would be eating dinner there, I went, oh, oh, how's that going to go?
What are you going to have? But then it was real easy to like make her feel real uncomfortable and go, what if it's like a big pile of hot mushrooms or something? Like nobody's making that.
Nobody's making that. But it's not just mushrooms. She gets like particular about so many things. Yep. And we were like, what are you going to do? You can't be rude. It's your date.
You've got to eat. You can't make the mom mad. Don't be rude at somebody else's house. You've got to eat the food. It's like, what am I going to give you a huge healthy and you have to eat it all? Oh no. What am I going to do? And she goes, and then I have to eat in front of people. I went, oh no, oh no, people
are going to know that you eat. You're a human being who has to consume calories. What?
Oh no, you need nutrients. Oh, wait. Gross. She did fine. She did do fine. There was some chicken and gelato soup, I guess.
Yeah, which she said was very good.
And I said, she goes, I've never had that before. I go, yes, you have because I've made that before. So.
But now she wants to have a soup competition.
No, I do.
Oh, you do. Yeah. I'm going to make mine. So she can compare. Correct. Oh, what if yours is worse? And she's not going to tell you that.
I know. Doesn't matter. I'm not in competition. Yeah.
Okay. Sure thing, pal. You betcha.
Putting that on my menu right now. Chicken and gelato soup. Got it. Okay. Noted. Well, my favorite thing was she goes, I've never had that before. I go, yeah, you have. I've made that many times.
Okay. But did she eat it when you made it?
I don't even think you ate it when I made it because you were like, oh yeah, mom's made that before. You go, I had the red sauce and I went, no, it's green.
Yeah, I don't think I've had it. I don't think you've ever made it.
Yeah, I have. Apparently you haven't eaten it.
Yeah. So. Well, I wonder if it's good.
We're going to find out on Tuesday when it's on the menu.
Tomorrow? Yep. All right. Super duper.
Did you ever get nervous eating at somebody else's house on a date?
No, not on a date, no. I didn't ever have issues with that. There was one time when I walked home for lunch with a buddy and we were just going to go have leftover pizza at his place for lunch. He's like, I got a whole bunch of leftover pizza. You should come have some.
And so we just walked a few houses from the school to his place and the only pizza they had left over was Canadian bacon and pineapple. I was real disappointed. Oh no.
I went, come on, man. Don't take off the pineapple. You told me there was good pizza here, but then I felt bad taking it off so I just suffered through every bite and it had a lot on it.
My friend in high school, her mom worked at the school lunch program and so she could order some stuff from the school, some of the prepackaged stuff. So we would leave school. And go have school lunch.
Yeah, that checks out. You want to not have a chicken sandwich and instead have a pizza ripper? I got them in the freezer.
We can go make them ourselves. Yeah. Yeah, let's do that.
I got a whole thing of those mashed potatoes.
Well, yes. And that one time we did go eat there and she had those hot dogs that you split in half and then you put what are they called? Gross. Potato boats. Gross. I know. I didn't like it. Gross. I know. No. Hot dogs split down the middle with mashed potatoes
in the hot dogs. I don't care for that. Some cheese. No. Your mom loves that. I know and then she puts ketchup on it.
It's real gross. It's so gross. I don't like ketchup on anything, but especially not a hot dog and potatoes and cheese that have been baked. I don't like eating anything called a hot dog boat. Yeah. No.
Every time this comes up on the show, I feel worse. So gross. So thanks for that. Thanks for bringing that up.
I'm going to make them for dinner on Wednesday.
Nope. Put that on the menu. Hot dog boats. You want to watch everyone vacate a house, start baking hot dogs.
Too late. It's on the menu.
Hot dog boats. The house will smell like that for four days. Still smells like baked hot dog in here.
Well, you'll have to see if it reminds you of your mom's. No.
Don't make that.
No one. Hot dog boats are better. Disgusting. Stop. We were shopping, doing some shopping, and you were looking at some Dungeons and Dragons stuff. Yeah. And said, hmm, maybe I should get into this.
Look, not that I have time for another hobby or anything and you kind of have to have a group of people to play with anyway. At least four. I would think you'd want to have a good group of people. I don't know. I haven't looked at how many people are required to play, but I could find that out, I suppose.
What I know is that it takes some time. I think it really takes time to learn the game. It feels like it takes time to run the campaign. Yeah. And that's what I know about Dungeons and Dragons.
Okay. So you have to have at least two people. Okay. One who is the Dungeon Master and one who is a player. Okay. And that would be a one-on-one solo kind of adventure for that person. But the ideal group size for balance and spotlight time is four players plus the Dungeon Master totaling five people. Okay. You can play with two to eight though. Okay. So you really ideally four players in a dungeon master.
You were asking me if I wanted to get involved. Yeah. And I said, no, hard pass. Not because I just one thing that I'm going to hold you back from doing it because I'm going to get confused on every step of the instruction process. As we're trying to learn to play, I'm going to be like, I don't understand. Read that again.
Well, so I think the whole thing is that you're you're in a story. It's like a choose your own adventure kind of thing.
Yeah, you said it's like pretend you like pretend you like pretend.
And you like dice. Do I? You like Yachtsy. So, you know, these are just different dice with different amounts of numbers on them up to the 20 sided dice. Okay, the d 20, as they call it.
Okay. So you would have, you know, your set of dice, you would have your dungeon master who guides you through the campaign. And I think that the reason campaigns would take longer is just based on the amount of people you have, how deep you get into the story, right, how much you try to decide what you're going to do as your character. But you get to develop a character, you get to be something else. And you like you could be a wizard or you could be like you you said you kind of like Gimli, the dwarf from Lord of the Rings, you could be a dwarf, like you could have all kinds of different things.
Anyway, you could you get to be a person. And you get to have these different abilities that you can use to fight the bad guys in the campaign. So you and then you roll the dice to figure out how much damage you deal. So do you do you get a book? The dungeon master has the book
and the book is like has everything that the dice do. And then the dungeon master tells the story you wrote the dice. Okay, I see. So if the dungeon master is reading the story, then he doesn't necessarily get to play.
It controls the flow of the game based on what's in the book. And then people will go like to the next level, whether where they'll write their own campaigns, and create their own storylines and stuff like that. That's when you get real deep into it.
And is this one where you get the figurines and you can paint the figurines?
So I mean, sure. But that's what you're thinking about is like warhammer and like some of the four 40k stuff, which is a whole different thing. Okay, that's its own thing. Okay, those have like big epic battles and like wars with your characters and you got to like move them on like a physical risk board. It's like Pokemon but no Pokemon is not anything like it.
Yes, sir. No, because you have to fight your Pokemon with your cards, but warhammer is just characters and other things.
Yeah, but they're not the same.
What I need to do is go to one of the game stores that we have in time in town and just say, Hey, can I just watch? I just want to watch and see how it works.
Same. And then I'll decide if I want to totally agree. I just let me have maybe 30 minutes so I can just watch and see if it's something that I will actually enjoy. Do I want to invest the time when you asked me on Friday, I said no, right? Because you like pretend. I do like pretend.
This all is because we've been watching Stranger Things and there's a big Dungeons and Dragons thread running through it and I keep going like, Is this something I could get into? Like it feels like one of the like nerdier things that I've ever said, could I get into this?
But it's kind of like, I'm curious about it.
I don't have a lot of time to go, Yeah, I'm going to devote a bunch of time to play in this game.
Okay, well, here's my other question because you saw a Stranger Addition, a Stranger Things edition of Dungeons and Dragons. So did they write their own campaign? So you can pick up different campaigns? Correct. Okay. Yep. I see. Look at me knowing stuff about D &D.
Well, you're asking the right questions. That's for sure. But again, I know this is about as everything that I know about it. I couldn't tell you the different characters you can be, what their abilities are, what they're called. I don't know any of that stuff.
What I also think I know to be true is that your character, like in Stranger Things, they have Will the Sorcerer and Sure, Will the Wise, yeah. Yeah. And Mike the Brave and stuff. Right. I kind of want to, Shantel the Danger.
Oh, is that right?
Yeah, I want a cool title. The Danger. Yeah. I want a real cool title. Okay.
All right. I can dig on that.
But I don't think you get to choose your own title.
I think the story, the game, chooses your title for you. Well, sort of, because there are essential roles that in your campaign you want to make sure you have. Like you want to have a fighter, a healer, a magic person. Like you want to have I'm going to be the fighter. specific abilities.
The fighter. Yeah. Oh, yeah. We're going to call you Leroy Jenkins.
I don't know what that means. So Leroy Jenkins was in a video game, was a character. And his name was Leroy Jenkins. And everybody was trying to put together a plan. And while they were putting together the plan, while they were going to run in this room, he just ran in yelling his name.
Leroy Jenkins and just started fighting and got everybody killed in the campaign. Oh, no. So that's why when you said, I'm going to be the fighter, I went, yeah, you're not going to be the team player. You're going to be the one who's like, I'm going Leroy Jenkins. That's Leroy Jenkins.
Yeah. Except I'm not going to get everyone killed. I'm going to run in and shout, Shrattel to brave. Yeah. And then saves the day. And then everybody will hoist me on their shoulders. Oh boy. You're the best. We couldn't have done it without you.
This is how you're going to get your moment. Yes.
Yes. That's all I want in the world. All right.
It's to be hoisted up on shoulders and celebrated.
It has to be for something. I can't just be a pity. Like, we know you want this. It has to be like, you did it. You did this for the team. Oh, man. That's all I want in life.
Okay. You want your Rudy moment. Yes. Yes. Got it. It's a good reference, too. It is a good reference. And wasn't it also Samwise that played Rudy?
Absolutely was. All right. Very good. Good job, Josh. Yeah. Thanks. Okay. So our son went to California. He has a friend that he met six or seven years ago. And they've been, they met through a video game online. And they've been friends. They text, they call, they play games, and they've been friends for about seven years. Right. He considers him one of his best friends, and they have never met in person until this weekend.
That is correct. And I'm only sad that I couldn't be there to see when they actually saw each other.
I know. That would have been probably kind of cool. I think so, too. I think it would have been awesome.
But they've got a group of them. So there's like four of them that kind of met and hang out on this game together. And I know at least three of them are together. Right. It's not all four.
But one of them came from Canada. Yeah, right. They all kind of met in California this week, which was kind of cool. Yeah. It is kind of cool. And we bought him, he turned 21, our son turned 21, and we bought him his plane ticket so he could go meet his friend and do his thing in California. And we've been kind of living vicariously through him. We have Life360 because he doesn't text much because he's a dude. Right. And so we kind of checked Life360 and be like, oh, that's cool. Where he is? He's been doing some really great stuff. He got to see Snoop.
Yeah. See, there's a spontaneity about this trip that doesn't exist with the previous trip. And I tried to explain this. He went to Denver and I was losing my mind because they were just sitting around the airport. And I was like, go do something. This one, he's got somebody who lives there, who knows kind of what to do. And where to go and what to see.
And so it's a little bit different, but they stumbled upon $40 concert tickets to go see Snoop Dogg. Oh, no. And I went, okay, whatever.
Go check out the Snoop Dogg show, I guess. So that's kind of funny. But then they spent some time yesterday at Six Flags Magic Mountain. So he's been kind of exploring that, which is cool. And he loves roller coasters.
And for a long time, I thought was actually going to go into the industry of designing and making roller coasters, but hasn't done that, at least not yet. Right. But he went and he said he rode one that was almost 300 feet high, which is pretty awesome. 270 feet, something like that.
What I know about my son is that he is a little bit forgetful. And so I'm just nervous that he's gonna like forget his wallet when he goes to the store, or he's gonna forget his ID when he has to go to the airport.
And so I've been kind of just been like, micromanaging him a little bit. And I can't even remember when I asked him. I said, hey, did you remember this? And he goes, yes, I have everything. And I went, all right, all right. The tone he had was like, I've got it.
You said I'll back off in your text.
All right, I'm backing off. I got the message loud and clear.
Okay, here it is. I found it. Yeah, because that's what he said was I'm backing off. Or you said that.
Oh, I know what it was because his flight had been when he was trying to leave on Friday, his flight had been delayed by like a couple of hours.
Three or four times, right? We just kept getting updates about it. And I said, oh, hey, you might want to give your friend a heads up that your flight's been delayed. And he goes, I already did. I got it. Yeah. Okay, okay. All right, I'm back. I'm backing off. This is some friendly advice.
Well, and I had told him that in the truck. I said, just make sure to let him know so they aren't sitting there. And he was like, I already did. And I went, okay. Good job. So then you brought it up again. And now he's like, I'm being hounded about this stuff.
He's having a great dive. I'm excited for him. Seems like it. I hope he's taken, like as you said, I hope he's taken some pictures with his friends.
Right. Like, I know he sent us pictures of like the ocean and pictures of like some of the buildings that he was excited to be at. He sent some videos from the Snoop show because he knew you would like to watch that. And I did. I know, you loved it.
But I want him to take pictures with his friends. I hope he's taken a picture of the three of them. I don't know if dudes do that though.
I've got pictures with people when I hang out.
Do you? Yeah. Of your bros? Sure.
That's what you want to say. Hey, bros. I don't call them that, but all right.
How do you get together for a picture as a dude?
I don't say, all right, everybody get together.
Yeah, that's what I'm asking. I just take pictures. I go here, get in this photo, click. That's it. And then do you say, okay, do a funny one?
Nope. You go here, let's take a picture real quick. All right, awesome. Let's keep walking or whatever we're doing.
You don't even like to see if you all look good? No.
Because it doesn't matter.
It does matter. What if somebody's face is blurry?
Then I got a blurry photo of somebody and that's hilarious. I can't believe it. I mean, look how dumb you look. You are all blurry. Way to go, dude.
I can't believe it. I would hate to be in a picture with you and your friends. Don't even care about how people look.
No, and I'm not taking six. I'll take like two and we're moving on. Next thing, no time for that. Anyway, he gets back today. Yes, he does. So long as he doesn't miss his flight. Have you checked in with him? Have you reminded him that his flight's today? No, I told my head to back up. I'm backing up. I'm backing up.
Hey, it's Christmas time and you know what Christmas time means? What's that? A Christmas card exchange. Ah, yes.
Let's exchange some Christmas cards. That's right. Send us a Christmas card. Yes. In the mail.
Send us a Christmas card with your return address. That's right. And then we'll send you one in return.
Right, that's how a trade works. That's how an exchange works. You send us a Christmas card, we send you a Christmas card.
Because it's real easy to find our address.
Yeah, it's 400 West Sunnyside Road in Idaho Falls and the zip code is 83402.
Yep, I'm looking at our door. It looks pretty sad. Yeah, still empty. Still empty.
And I mean, look, it's only the eighth. We got a little bit of time here.
But I want to display these cards for a while.
Yeah, no, I hear you. Plus we've got cards and goodies to send back. So if you want cards and goodies, well then send us a Christmas card. We'll send you the Wake Up Classy 97 Christmas card. Exclusive. Yeah, and it's a new one every year.
It is a new one every year. And this year's a winner. This one is a doozy.
You're going to be proud to hang this up on the fridge or your own door or wherever you put your Christmas cards.
Where do you put like when you were living at your house growing up, where
did your mom put her Christmas card? Oh, we taped him on the door. On the door? Yeah. Oh, yeah. My mom hung him on the wall. Okay.
But I don't know why she did that. I might, I have a friend of mine who has like a, she's put like some string across one of her door frames and she hangs hers on a string and that's a cute idea. There is a cute idea. We normally put ours on the door at home.
You put it on the pantry this year.
Well, because I didn't want to rip the paint off of the door.
Ah, I see. Here's something interesting. We have one card. Yeah. And it's right in the middle of the door. And so every time I walk down the hall, I go, oh, yep, there it is. It's like right at eye level.
I know. We need some personal Christmas cards too.
I know. Yeah, yeah. We got the one. So anyway, if you want to put us on your Christmas card list, we'd love to have one. We'll send you one back. 400 West sunny side road, Idaho Falls, Idaho 8342. Or just look up the street address for Classy 97. Send it to Josh and Chantel. We'll put it on the door. We'll send you ours in return. It's the wake up Classy 97 Christmas card exchange.
Let's play the Christmas card exchange. How do you play? Yes. Send us a card. We send you one back. Easy. We went to a stereo store. And I have never seen you nerd out more than I have at the stereo store. Oh, really? Yeah. Never. Well, I don't know. You might have nerd out, nerded out more.
I forgot how nerdy I can get when it comes to that stuff.
Yeah, and you and the guy shopping there, I appreciated him because he was just as excited about stereos as you were. The two of you, I was like, I'll see myself out. You guys have a good time. Yeah. You were talking about.
Oh, so many things. I wish I had written down. What were some words you heard?
I can't even remember. That's what I'm saying. I wish I had written down because I was like, I have no idea what you're talking about.
Let's just think. Just travel back to where we were.
Stand in there. You were talking about speakers. Yeah. You were talking about subs. Yeah. And you were talking about decimal levels. And you were talking about. Decibels. I, sure. Okay. Decibels. Did I say decibels? Mm-hmm.
Yep. We're talking about decibels.
You're talking about books and the dewy system. No, we weren't.
But we were talking some DBs and some ohms. Sure. Yep.
And that's when I checked out and I went, I don't know.
When we started talking DBs and ohms and wattages. Yeah.
And I went, where can I go to sit? And spectrum analyzers. Do you have a place for women somewhere? Where is the wife corral?
The wife corral. Yeah. You know, like some places you can go. I used to work at a scrapbook store. Right. It was like a little area set aside for kids. And I had toys. And a little picket fence.
Yeah, exactly. And you could put your kids in there while you shopped. And we used to have men come in and they'd be like, do you have a section for husbands while their wife shop? We can just go in the corner and watch. And we got this two chairs sitting next to the kid corral. You can sit there.
That's what I mean. That's what I needed at that stereo place. I'm like, just, do you have some home garden TV set up somewhere?
We're talking head units. We were talking. And then we got real excited about like old stuff that we had installed and played around with when we were young. And then it got real cool because then we started talking about music keg systems and polycarbonate cones and so many cool things. I remember.
I wandered off. I was looking. I don't even remember what I was looking at. But I wandered off. I was like, I can't be a part of this anymore.
Well, they have like an old museum of stuff in the back that you wandered and found interesting. And then we walked back there and went real dorky because I was like looking around like, I know what you don't have. You don't have a talk boy back here.
Yeah, that's, I wandered off. You guys were having your own conversation about nerd stuff. I said, I'm going to go away. And then I was in my own little zone and then here you guys come talking about nerd stuff again.
And I went, stop following me around. Talking about nerd stuff. I did think the employee, he was very nice. Yeah. He talked to you. Big Mike was his name. That's right. As in what's your name? He said, Big Mike. And I said, I don't think that's the name that was given to you upon birth.
It's Mike. He goes by Big Mike.
I appreciate. I think Tim for nerding out with you.
It was a good moment. I haven't had a good nerd out like that in a while. Yeah.
And you said that your dad used to frequent that store in the second we walked in.
Used to, still does, I'm sure.
You were like, it smells just like it always did.
Yeah. It smells like a stereo shop. Yeah. It was great.
Cool. I don't, I don't have any more to say about stereos, except I'm happy that you got a nice moment.
It was cool. Yeah. I didn't spend any money like I could have. I could have spent a lot of money.
I looked at the price tags there and I went, sheesh.
I could have spent some big dollars. Dollar dollar bills. Yeah. I could have turned our home theater into something else. Yeah.
You did have some big ideas.
I have, I have many large ideas. I think what we have is fine. I mean, it's okay, but it's fine. I should have had him demo that for you is what I should have done. Because you thought your socks were stuck on toenails. You would have blown them right off.
I will say that he was talking about speakers and how there was a set of speakers that couldn't be blown.
Yeah, but somebody did.
That somebody had and he was like, I didn't even think that was possible. And I went, I bet I could do it. I like to listen to my music loud in my car. I really wanted to accept that challenge.
It takes, it takes a lot. Yeah.
I kind of want to attempt.
You want to attempt to blow out a very expensive subwoofer. Yeah. I think your body would blow out before that speaker.
That sounds gross.
Well, I'm just, there's so much bass in those things. And if it was in a box properly built with all the right amperage, it would, it would shake your bones. Amperage. Yep. You want me to nerd out from it?
No, I've already heard it. I will not nerd out right now. But I'll go back there. I know you will. And I'll nerd out more. I know you will. I'm excited for you. You coming with me? Nope. Why not? Take your dad. Okay, I will. You were going to do a jingle all the way recap.
Do you want to talk about the movie? Because here's the thing about it. I fell asleep right at the very end at the parade's end. You had said that you feel like the mom in the movie and Arnold Schwarzenegger as Turbo Man weren't filmed together? No. No. At the parade scene?
No. Specifically that's the one. And now I want to go back and re-watch and see if, I don't know. And maybe here's the thing. Maybe their schedules didn't coordinate. Maybe it's Kelly Preston, isn't it? I don't know. Rita Wilson. It's Rita Wilson.
Okay. Maybe Rita Wilson's schedule and Arnold Schwarzenegger's schedule didn't coincide. And so they were like, we can't film you guys together. But there is not specifically during that parade scene. They are not filming that scene together.
It shows the little boy and Arnold Schwarzenegger and even Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad and even Phil Hartman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. But Rita Wilson, anytime there's a shot of the mom, it's like her head's chopped off. So you can only see her torso. Even there's a scene where Arnold Schwarzenegger is hugging her, but it's just the pro, it's a profile of her and like the back of her. Interesting. You never see her face.
And his face in the same show. Together. Ever.
And any of the parades. Specifically the parades. Okay.
Yes. Now you kind of want to go back and watch and see if they ever have interaction.
If there's ever a film that they are seeing that they've filmed together. Yeah. That's interesting. I know. That's an interesting observation. Someone posted, I saw this this morning, there's a meme from Jingle All the Way. And interestingly, this is toward the end of the movie because Rita is with the son talking to Turboman, but you can't see Turboman's face. Which if you've seen the movie, you know, in the very, very, very beginning opening sequence of the movie when the little boy is watching, when Jamie is watching the game or the movie, it's a different actor who's playing Turboman on the TV show. And so they probably just had that guy. Interesting.
In the scene, right? Interesting. They already had the guy. It's probably just the stunt guy. But anyway, this meme says Howard, who is the dad, must have been gone an awful lot if his family couldn't recognize him at the parade in the movie. His family's still like, that's Turboman, that's not my dad.
Like, he was really not around. We're giving some spoilers away for Jingle All the Way. We showed Henry that movie when she was little. She doesn't necessarily remember it.
So we watched it again. And as we're watching it, she says, Ted, the neighbor who's trying to move in on Arnold Schwarzenegger's family. She's like, I don't like that guy.
He's not a good guy. I'm like, oh, let's talk about the actual dad for a minute because yeah, he's not around. He keeps bypassing his family. He's spending all of his Christmas season trying to buy a gift for his son that he doesn't even really know that his wife told him to get three weeks ago. He's not a good guy. Right.
They lie that he got it the whole thing. Yeah. This is a terrible movie. It was funny though, because there is a meme of Arnold saying, put the cookie down. And that was the part she goes, is this the movie where that comes from?
And it is. It is the movie where Arnold Schwarzenegger says, put the cookie down. It came out in 1996 and they did a sequel. They did not. Jingle All the Way 2. They did. With Larry the Cable Guy.
Oh, so not same actors. Nope.
I've never even heard of Jingle All the Way 2. I have not either. But I can guarantee it's the exact same storyline. Instead of Jamie, it's a little girl. She's holding like a stuffed bear. And Larry the Cable Guy is in a Santa suit. So I'm assuming that the storyline is Larry the Cable Guy is the dad who has to go get the bear. And somehow in some way ends up. So the same story.
Yeah. So it actually says here, a child's father and stepfather engage in an all out battle to get her the toy of her dreams on Christmas. Same story. Jingle All the Way 2. Same. Came out 2014. Eight years later they went, we should do this again.
Jingle All the Way again. Same thing. So I Googled, did Rita Wilson film Jingle All the Way in that specifically that parade scene. And it said, yes, she did. But I'm like, no, she was, they were not in those scenes together. That was a body double for sure. Okay.
Now I have to watch it again.
But she said that she, Rita Wilson specifically said that the fact that people are like, the fact that you don't recognize your husband in a half mask, especially with his accent, she said it haunts her due to its perceived implausibility.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I bet it does.
There's a lot of implausibility in that movie. Let's be real.
What? Like the mailman?
Who never delivers the mail. Right. But also throws it all over, opens packages, pretends packages or bombs, had a bomb in his satchel the whole time he's running around. What is going on? Right.
Terrible. The amount of things in that movie, you kept saying, oh, doing that's a federal offense. Oh, doing that's a federal offense. Oh, if you do that, that's a federal offense.
Dampering with the mail is a federal offense.
That's what you just kept saying over and over and over. Anyway, it's a classic. If you haven't seen it, it's terrible.
Don't waste your time. There's better movies.
Put the cookie down, all that. It's in there.
Yeah, it is. Don't waste your time. You said this to me yesterday. Just because someone put it on the internet doesn't mean you have to do it. Because here's why.
You, for some reason, have with your sister and with our daughter, you have collectively, well, right, and other folks, but you all have. But my point is, you have seen something on the internet and said, that's a good idea. We should do that. So you have like 28 different Christmas exchange things. We have two. Ugly ornaments, books and things. Two. White elephant, this. No. Yes.
There's two. It's the book thing and the ugly ornament. That's it. It's too many. I don't know why this is a problem for you. I'm not asking you to be involved. I'm not asking you to participate. I'm not asking you to come up with ideas for me.
Back off. You were stressed out about
it with the store. I was not stressed out. Yeah. And you were saying, you were like, oh no. And then you were talking about, should we invite other people? No. And it's a whole thing.
No. And then, listen. What are you talking about? And then I said, you know, you got a lot of this stress that you don't need. It's not stress. And I actually, this is the part of Christmas that I enjoy the most.
Is that right? I enjoy shopping for the ugly ornament and I enjoy shopping for the book basket. So if you take this away from me, I'm going to be really sad about Christmas because I enjoy shopping for these two things the most.
I'm not taking anything away from you.
I'm not stressed about it.
I'm just saying we were at the store and you were having a whole to do. I was not. It felt like a to do.
Not about those things. I'm stressed about other things, concerned about other Christmas things, but never those. Never. No, because I like that part of Christmas. Okay.
It felt like a lot. And so I said, you know, just because somebody put it on the internet doesn't mean that you have to do it. At the time you laughed. I did laugh. Now you're not laughing about it. I don't know what changed.
So because you have a different impression of how I experienced that thing.
I misread the room, I suppose.
You did. Because it felt like stress. No, you're stressing me out right now. You should probably leave the room. Wow. I didn't mean that.
I just got a little cranky. I'm sorry. See, tough to read. I never know where we're at.
Settle down, Josh.
I am so settled. I was trying to help you settle. I am settled. I say, hey, maybe you don't have to do every cute thing you see online.
That is a really good idea though, because I do see a lot of stuff online that I go, that's really cool. I got to do that. I got to do that. That's what I'm trying to suggest. But I like these two things.
That's the part of Christmas that I really enjoy doing. So don't take that away from me. Got it. On it. I like shopping for that part. So there. Okie doke. My fault. But it is good advice for a lot of people.
Yeah, just because you see somebody did it on the internet and you think it's cute, doesn't mean you have to do it. You can just appreciate it and go, that's such a cute idea. I'm going to move on with my life. There you go. Yeah. That was the advice. Upon deaf ears, I suppose. No. Because it was not what you needed to hear at the time.
Just for, yeah. No, that's fine. It's good advice. Thank you. Thanks for saying it. I appreciate your input. Ok. It's a sure thing. Just let me ask for it. Don't give unsolicited.
Oh, here we go. Now you sound like our 16-year-old. I didn't ask for a lecture. I didn't want a whole explanation. I want to ask dad this thing, but I know he's going to talk about it for 45 minutes.
And I don't want to have 45-minute conversation. I just want to know about the thing. Yep. This is what I hear. This is how I go through my life every day.
Oh, poor Josh. That's right. Poor, poor Josh. I saw this today. There is a leg lamp tour that you could take in Idaho Falls. There are 17, and I think more gets added a little bit as they find them, but there are 17 leg lamp owners.
So I don't know if this was actually compiled by this guy, Matt, that I went to high school with or not, but it's a great list. He said, these 17 leg lamp owners encourage you to see their major awards.
Yeah. And he's got a list of them all. We could probably just share that on our Facebook, I assume. I bet so.
It would be easy. And then there are several other, but the owners haven't contacted him back to say if he can post their address yet. So he's just listed the streets, but you might have to go do a little bit of hunting to find those ones on your own.
But those other 17, he's talked to the people and they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah. You can tell people to come see my major award in my window.
We have a small leg lamp. Right, on the piano. It fits on our piano, but I would like to see some larger ones.
Full-size ones? Yeah. Well, now we know where to go.
Now we do know where to go. You could go on the leg lamp tour of Idaho Falls. I think it's hilarious.
That's great. Well, yeah, let's just grab this image and share it. Go for it. And then that way folks can go check out the leg lamps of Idaho Falls. It's a fun little tour. And, you know, Matt, if you did compile that and you're listening, well done, sir. Thank you for that. It's an important thing to be sharing. It is. There's a lot of Fragile happening there.
I love it. Yeah. Thanks for compiling that. Yeah. And on that note, I think we're done.
Yeah. That will wrap up the show for today. Hope you have a great rest of your Monday. We'll be back tomorrow.
