Why are you using that hand? You're cut. This is my space. Yeah. Your elbow is in my space, lefty.
My dad, had, like, a hard time growing up because they tried to correct him all the time. Really? Yeah. They like, I mean, you know, the sixties. So when he was a kid, they kept trying to be like, no.
Quit it. I don't what a stigma. I know. Just just, like this is just the hand I use. How sad.
Yeah. Anyway, happy left handers day, and have some filet mignon. That's it. That's all that's going on today. This is just a day.
Happy days. Things even apply to me because I'm not a left hander, and I don't like filet mignon. Did you say flaming yawn? No. No.
No. I said I said flaming yawn, but it, like, meshed Filet mignon. No. It meshed into one word. Filet mignon.
Filet mignon. Well, good morning. It's Josh and Chantel. Josh, have I got some good news for you? What's your good news?
Do you like pizza? I like pizza. Do you like Chuck E. Cheese? Do you love Chuck E.
Cheese that you wanna spend way too much time there? Then I've got some news for you. Okay. They just announced a new subscription program, which will reward people with discounted games and food. And it can lead to big savings, especially if you go to Chuck E.
Cheese every day. So I don't even know where the nearest Chuck E. Cheese is. Probably Salt Lake. Yeah.
Is it still open? Yeah. Have I ever been to a Chuck E. Cheese? Yeah.
Probably. But I was a kid, and it wasn't even called that. What was it called? Showbiz Pizza. That's what Chuck E.
Cheese was called? Yeah. Really? Uh-huh. Nice experience.
Boise. Yes. And Showbiz Pizza had, the animatronic band. Okay. And and then Chuck E.
Cheese came in, and I think they bought Showbiz. And, yeah, because you had the rock of what were they called? Oh, no. The Rockafire Explosion was the band. And, yeah.
And it's, you know, straight out of the creepy video game animatronic video game, 5 Nights at Freddy's. Okay. I lived that in my childhood Did you? With with showbiz pizza. I don't think I've ever been to a Chuck E.
Cheese. And I remember when Beck was little, he would want to go there, but just because we drove past it a few times when we were out of town. And it looks exciting for a little kid. So then you're like, I wanna go there. Or you see a commercial of it or something, but we're bad parents.
We never took him there. No. We're not. Okay. Listen.
There are 3 tiers to the subscription plan. You can get gold, silver, or bronze. I don't want to. Cheapest is 7.99 per month. 11.99 per month is the second one, and $30 a month is the next one.
Of course, it offers game tokens Yeah. Discounts off of food. You can go every day, and you can bring up to 6 family members. I don't. Part of their campaign is that just trying to figure out why.
Like, why? Like, I get it. If you are like how many people are buying this? I don't know. I don't feel like this is a big seller.
Part of their campaign is that, hey. We're less expensive than Netflix and a lot more fun. Okay. Sliming net Netflix, Chuck E. Cheese.
Yeah. Coming in hot. I mean Maybe I wonder if it's just maybe sales are tanking. Maybe they just have lost some revenue, and so they're just, like, grasping it. Any way they can give Well, look.
A chance for the company. I don't know for sure. Because, like, they do birthday parties, and they do you know, they've got the full arcade, and they do a whole bunch of fun stuff. Unlimited visits for 7.99 a month. I'm just looking at it.
It's crazy with up to 50% off of food. I told you that. Did you not believe me? If you if you have young kids and, you have a Chuck E. Cheese nearby and you know you're gonna end up there a couple of times a month, that's probably worthwhile.
Yeah. It's cheaper than Netflix. Well, there is that. Also, wasn't there some rumors not too long ago that they somebody saw an employee, like, like Preheating old pizza? I think that's a rumor.
I think that rumor's been going on for a long time. Oh, has it? Yep. But, anyway, if they brought a showbiz pizza around, I might be interested in Okay, Josh. I want you to think about a TV workplace.
That is not the office? Can I think of a different one? Yeah. I know. I just that's the first one that comes to mind.
You say the a TV workplace. Immediately, I go, oh, the office. Yeah. Think of a different one. There are many.
The Cheers bar. Okay. That's a good one. I'm trying to think of some other, okay, the TV set from Home Improvement. Okay.
Yeah. Good good ones. K. Okay. Now which TV place would you actually enjoy working at?
Oh, the TV, workshop from Home Improvement. Would you be the cohost or the host? Would you be Tim the Toolman, or would you be owl? Owl. Owl.
Owl Borland? Flannel wear an owl? Yeah. Which one would you rather be? I feel like I would wanna be the more level headed guy because now I'm thinking about, like, that that show hey.
Hey. That show being based on something like, Bob Vila, like, This Old House or The New Yankee Workshop, like, I feel like in in the vein of those shows, I'd be like, yeah. We're actually making something. So I would feel more like the Al character Okay. Than the let's give it more power.
Than the goof? But then I feel like I lend myself character wise more to the goofy side. So I'd be like, yeah. We could do this with a hand planer, or we could see what happens if we run it through this crazy machine. I don't know.
I don't know. I can't decide. Okay. So here's some other workplaces. K.
See if you would wanna work at these other workplaces. You said the bar from Cheers. Yeah. I don't think I I don't wanna do the bartender thing. K.
Pawnee Parks and Recreation department. I do not wanna work in the government office of Pawnee. But you could work with Leslie Knope. Is it big Knope for you? No.
It's fine. You haven't seen that show. So you No. I haven't seen it enough. No.
How about the 99th precinct from Brooklyn 99? I've I've not seen Brooklyn 99, but that's a police station. So there's that. I'd I've I don't fancy myself a law officer. Appreciate the work they do.
I don't need to do that work. Dunder Mifflin from the office. Yeah. Central Perk from a friend? Sure.
No one works there except for the one guy. Except for Gunther? Yeah. He's the only guy who works there. WNYX from Newsradio.
Okay. The the the show news radio. Yeah. That would that lends itself directly to what I already do. And I would say the same thing if you were gonna talk about Frasier, or if you're gonna talk about, Yeah.
But those a little bit different because they're talk. They're just mostly talk radio. Right? Right. Frasier was an advice.
There. WKRP Cincinnati. That's another radio show. WKRP. Alright.
Is that how it went? Cincinnati. Yeah. But, again, that's just a radio station. It's just a lot more talking.
Ew. Are those the only workplace? No. No. No.
There was TGS from 30 Rock, Bob's Burgers from, of course. Yeah. Bob's Burgers. The nuclear plant from The Simpsons? Yes.
That was on here. I didn't go animated at all. Well, there's a lot of animated places to work. Merlot's Bar and Grill from True Blood. I never never saw that.
I don't know that one either. It was a vampire thing. Abbott Elementary from Abbott Elementary. That's okay. Those are the those are the main ones.
Okay. Yeah. You had some good ones. I'm I'm sticking with home improvement. K.
That's the one I think would be I get to build things with my hands and also make a show about it. I think that's okay. Okay. I could be into that. I think that would be fun.
I'll be live studio audience. That's you? Was filmed in front of a live studio audience, and it's just you. You're a live studio audience. I better have some big reactions.
And a whole bunch of, like, mannequins or something to fill the room when we do the audience shot, and it's just one it's you. Just me. But I will Little laugh and cry. Oh. I'll do some of those.
Good joke, you'll say. Or if you hammer your finger accidentally, oh, like that. I'll be a good audience member. You're a live studio audience. Today's good news.
I'm gonna tell you about John Tyler Rutherford from a minute. John Tyler? Yeah. From a minute. I know what Tyler?
Yeah. This guy's related, but he's not. It's a different guy. His name is John Tyler Rutherford. Johnny Tyler?
Just John. I'm gonna call him Johnny. John Tyler Rutherford of Wayne County, West Virginia. K. That's how you have to say it.
He went fishing with his 3 year old daughter. Great story already. So good news. She's 3. K.
She has a $10 pink fishing rod. She is able to reel in fish. However, she's not very good at casting the rod yet. Okay. So dad, here John, cast the line out and said, let's just sit back and enjoy some father daughter time.
She's sitting there. He's sitting there. They're fishing. Well, they ended up hooking a big one, and I'm talking about a massive 43 and a half inch long Holy moly. 46.7 pound record breaking channel catfish Ew.
On a $10 pink fishing rod. Was her fishing rod able to hold it? They caught the fish. Snap in half? No.
It did not. The fish put up a fight. They reeled it in together. The fish was very special. John received a message of congratulations from the director of the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources, and it was all made possible because of 2 things.
John said, hey. Let's go fishing. Yeah. And, also, let's get that pink fishing rod. And when I say pink fishing rod, you're thinking about one of the little ones.
Like, it's it's a it's a big fishy one? Yeah. Okay. It's still just a little cheapy fishing rod because he's like, she's 3. She wants a pink fishing pole.
But he was like, I'm not gonna get her something. I'm gonna get her some gear because I wanna keep fishing with her for years, which she's gonna be, as they say, hooked now. It's a big fish. Yeah. But then He's holding it in his arms like a like a cord of wood.
It's huge. She's gonna think she's gonna catch that big fish every time she goes out. Yeah. He's gotta take her fishing for small fish for a little while. He's gotta go take her to to get some some little ones.
So she can be like, oh, okay. This is ours really is. Fun, but not every fish is a monster. Yeah. What a thing.
Anyway Did they catch and release, or did they keep? Great question. I don't know the answer to that. I don't think it says. Yeah.
I don't I don't have any information. But that's adorable. Yep. Well done. Father, daughter time.
Yep. Good news Love it. To get you going on classy 97. We often buy fruits and vegetables. I like to, when I cook, make sure to wash them before I use them.
Yes. Apparently You're not supposed to. No. You are. Oh.
That's really good because you're supposed to wash off dirt and potential pesticides or whatever. Yeah. But, they're now saying that just washing alone is probably not enough. What else should you do? You should peel it.
And I'm kinda figuring trying to figure that out with something like a green pepper. I was just thinking I was thinking of a red pepper. Yeah. That's a new paper that was published by the American Chemical Society that says that washing produce may not be enough alone. I think the American Chemical Society is a fun group of people.
Yeah. They have a good time. They have a casual Friday. They do Hawaiian shirt Thursdays sometimes. You don't know?
I don't. Their their report says that based on research, even after washing fruits and vegetables, there's still pesticide residue left on the fruit. Some of which believe that. Had likely penetrates the skin. So they say wash and then peel your fruits and vegetables.
Peel how are you gonna peel a strawberry? How are you gonna peel a grape? Well, you can peel a grape. Yeah. Then they look like eyeballs.
That was bad. It's a Halloween joke. I can't. No. I can't.
You can't be bothered? I just that's gonna take so much more time. Heal your raspberries. You're gonna have nothing left if you peel your raspberry. I know.
I look. I'm just I'm just putting it out there. It's a safety thing. I just wanna make sure everybody's taken care of, you know. The National Chemistry Association.
Chemical Society. National. American. Chemical. American Chemical Society, not National Chemistry group.
I feel like maybe they're just trying to stay relevant. And so they're like, we gotta put out a new report, you guys. Think so? You think they're like, we haven't made the news in a while. We need to make a report.
What kind of report could we make? Something that has to do with chemicals. Well, consumer report in April released, some data saying that there was an, as they said, alarming amount of pesticide residue on fruits and vegetables sold sold in American grocery stores. And, and so then that is when the American Chemical Society said, well, let's do some research. I knew it.
And that's when they found out. They believe that the peeling operation can effectively avoid the hazards of pesticides in the fruit's epidermis and near epidermal pulp, thereby reducing the probability of ingesting pesticides. Someone wrote that sentence. That the chemical society Yeah. Someone at the American Chemical Society said, we believe that peel the peeling operation can effectively avoid the hazards of pesticides in the fruit's epidermis and near epidermal pulp.
I told you, those chemical society people, they are fun. I know they are. I how many people you think work there? 5. Do you think it's only 5 people?
I think it's 5 people in a dark, dingy basement. They have one swinging hanging light. Talking about epidermal pulps and stuff. Wanna guess who the CEO's name is? Harold.
Close. Albert. I knew it. Albert g Horvath. No offense.
That's no offense to Harold. I have an asshole. Harold. Albert. And he is my funnest uncle.
Alright. He's your funnest uncle. Yeah. Is that right? Yeah.
Okay. Wash and peel your fruit. That's the deal. Yeah. If you want to.
You should. I'm I feel like it's probably a good recommendation. Listen. I'm not trying to discredit this this information because there is a lot of pesticides. An alarming amount.
Yes. I know this. But I also just I don't have time to wash and peel every fruit and vegetable that I'm gonna partake in. So Wash and peel. This right here is good news for you.
What does this mean? What's your favorite season of all? Spring. Because why? Because it's the perfect temperature.
And it's the end of winter? Yes. And so you go, yay. Winter's done. Flowers come back and the birds come back and everything feels alive and beautiful and hopeful.
Listen. I don't know if you put any credit into the Farmers' Almanac or not. I don't necessarily read the Farmers' Almanac. Well, let me tell you what it says. For the 2024 to 2025 Farmers Almanac winter weather forecast.
K. Let's hear it. The annual publication now in its 208 year. Wow. Warm.
They've been doing this for a minute. They are predicting a wet winter whirlwind That will be more wet than white in many areas, which means rain Yes. In more areas than snow. Okay. I dig it.
Forecasters believe that the wetter, warmer winter will be the result of the climate pattern known as La Nina. I've heard of El Nino. Right. This is the opposite of that, La Nina, which is expected to emerge in the fall. Those hoping for a white Christmas will likely be disappointed as it looks wet rather than white for most areas.
I know there's a lot of people in the area who like snow. I am not one of them. So I am sad for you guys but like snow, but I'm happy for me because I don't like snow. Right. That's for most areas.
That does not say for everywhere. No one's going to get snow. Yeah. But especially in the New England area, the northeast, the Southern Plains That's not us. Plains, the Southeast, and the Atlantic Coast regions That's not us.
They should not see a lot of snow, mostly just rain this winter. What about the northwest? It does say most of the nation can expect a wet Thanksgiving holiday as well. In the form of? Rain.
Snow. Yeah. Here's what it says. It says, for our area, expect to expect to see chilly and wet. And then the further you go east, once you get into Montana, Wyoming, and really kind of up into the real edge of Idaho along those borders, Cold with average snowfall across the middle of the country.
I hate chili. Chilly and wet. Just being chilly. I hate being cold. Oh, why do I live in Idaho?
Because of other reasons. Because it's beautiful, and I love it. And And chilly and wet. That's what's coming this winter. It's gonna be chilly.
I love 3 of the 4 seasons. 3 of the 4 seasons are everything I would hope for. Like the one that lasts the longest. I know. Why does it have to last so long?
You've overstayed every year. We, started a fantasy football league in our house. Yes. The 4 of us. My favorite part was coming up with a logo and a team name.
Okay. You didn't enjoy the draft process where you get to pick your players? No. I did enjoy that part too. We decided that we were gonna get 2 freebies in the draft.
Yeah. You got to you got to do 2 dibs, look, which I don't know that that really mattered as much because there's only 4 of us. 4 of us, so it's pretty easy to get a pretty stacked team. Right. Everybody's got a real strong team.
Who were your dibs? I can't remember. My dibs were, Tyreek Hill, and Choice. And, Travis Kelce. Ew.
Yeah. You can have him. I do have him. I do have him. My dibs were Justin Jefferson.
Great pick. And who is my other dib? Do you remember? No. I don't remember.
A good one. A really good one. Good. Good. Good.
Yeah. I don't I don't remember who you got on your team. Either. But what's your team name? Field goals.
Field goals. Field goals. A l s. As if you you got goals. Field goals with a z.
Field goals. I don't know that I knew that was the name of your team. Because we're, edgy. What's the name of your team? Mojo Dojo Acasa House.
Oh, real original. And, and our short abbreviation is Ken. My my short abbreviation abbreviation is Jox, j o x. Oh, good. Because we're Jox.
Good job. I'm playing against, our daughter's team. She is a big Dolphins fan. One of her, favorites is, Waddle Yeah. From the Dolphins, Jalen Waddle.
So her team is called, oh, just waddling around. I don't even think she necessarily even likes him as a player. She just likes when he makes a touch down and he waddles like a penguin. Probably. That's probably, correct.
That's alright. And then nothing on the gritty. And then our son, he's a big, Cincinnati Bengals fan. One of his favorite players is Ja'Marr Chase. Yep.
So his team is called Super Jamario Brothers. So that's that's what's happening. I think it's gonna be a lot of fun. Yeah. I don't know.
We still have preseason to go. We don't even have, like, I know I'm playing, her on week 1, but I don't even know when week 1 is. This season will begin Thursday, September 5th. Oh, I see. Have weeks.
I thought it was September 8th. Nope. I was off 9th. Roster set by September 5th. Okay.
I'm I'm set. Well, you gotta you gotta keep track of it. You'll wanna look at it the day before, and you'll wanna look at it before everything's kind of started so you can make sure if somebody's injured or not playing, you don't have them in your Right. In your No. I know.
Saying? I get it, dude. My team Dude. Is dope. I got Lamar Jackson as well.
QB. Kirk Cousins is on Your bench? My bench. Yeah. Oh, I got look at look at Davante Adams, TJ Hockinson, Puka Nacua.
Shoot. Bet you guys don't stand a chance You're right. Against my Fantasy Football League team. We don't even know what the stakes are yet. We need to come up with the prize.
Beck was saying something like it was $5 to buy in. So No. No. No. Someone will win $15 after they take their 5 they put in.
That's lame. I I put the kibosh on that because I said that's that's lame. We don't wanna let's do something cooler than that. Okay. I don't know what it is yet, though.
Something that I'm gonna have to pay for. I'm sure. But Because there's always it's great to have a winner prize, but whoever comes in last also has to have a consequence. That's the most fun. A consequence.
Yeah. Not like a loser's prize, but a consequence? The loser's prize is a consequence. Like what? Like, you have to wear a Travis Kelce jersey for a week.
Ew. See a consequence. Don't wanna lose. That is right. That's the whole point.
That's the whole point. I hope you get no points. I think I will have some points. You can like him or not, but he's on my team, and he's gonna make me some points. Yeah.
I know. Unless he does very poorly when, Taylor Swift comes to his game. So maybe she'll be in attendance at a lot of his games. I'm just hoping that gets toned down this season. I think they went a little bit too overboard with those 2 last year.
I think you you juiced it for as much as you can. Let's take it easy. Let's not show her every 5 minutes. I it's great they're in a relationship. There are other people who have relationships.
They don't cut to their significant other every 4 minutes. Yeah. Exactly. So let's take it easy. Take it easy.
Let's get back to football. Right? The novelty wore off a little bit. We're okay. This, happened, what, Sunday?
Yep. I was downstairs. You were downstairs. No. I was upstairs.
I thought you were hanging out with me. We were all downstairs. Oh. You and me and Bec, we were hanging out downstairs. We were just kinda lounging around.
I had my nice soft blanket. I was trying to get the dog to settle down. There was it was kind of just a, like, let's just hang out in the basement. It's a little cooler down there. Yeah.
But it was too cold for me, so I left. Yeah. So you got, chilly and decided to leave. I was still hanging out downstairs, and then the kids started bugging me because they couldn't find you. And and I was like, guys, I don't know what to tell you.
Go look around. And they I they looked every room. We don't have a large house. No. We've got, like, like, less than 2,000 square feet.
Like, it's not a huge home. It's not like you have a 1,000,000 places to hide. No. You could have been outside watering the flowers. You could have been inside just doing your own thing.
You could have been playing a joke and hiding. I don't know what happened because I wasn't upstairs. I was hanging out downstairs with the dog and, they just kept looking and looking and looking. I'm hearing all this chaos. Where are you?
Well, mom. Mom, where are you? And then they come back downstairs. We can't find her anywhere. We've looked everywhere.
And I went, obviously, you haven't because you haven't found her. So they're still somewhere you haven't looked. Your concern or me being lost. That's that's nice of you. Just said, I assumed you were either outside watering plants, which you do, or you were deliberately hiding from them as a joke, and I wasn't gonna spoil them.
None of those, and I was actually lost somewhere. Where? What if somebody had come in and kidnapped me? Nope. Adult napped me.
That's called abducted. And, no, didn't happen. So Okay. Where were you? What was going on?
I was chilly downstairs, so I walked upstairs. I was using the restroom, and I hear Emery go, mom. And I go, oh, I'm gonna I'm totally gonna hide. So I just discreet because I hadn't I I hadn't turned on the light in the bathroom. So I left the light was off, and the door was shut, and I just quietly jumped in the shower.
You just you're hiding in the bathtub. So I I hid in the bathtub for a long time. Yeah. I heard the whole conversation. Dad, where's mom?
Beck, I can't find mom anywhere. Where's mom? Where's mom? Now let it be said that I was timing how long it would take You did. Somebody to find me.
5 minutes. She gave up after 5 minutes. Then she just went, I guess, she's gone forever. I can't find her. Whatever.
I hear her go in her room and shut the door, and I went, oh, this is great. Yeah. Josh can't even be bothered. I don't know what they needed. And look for me.
I wasn't worried. Beck was also kind of, like, half interested, mostly disinterested in in finding me or my whereabouts. I didn't think you were in any danger. 5 minutes. And you weren't.
5 minutes. She gave up. She was like, ah, forget it. She's really gone. I can't I guess I'm on my own now.
Yeah. So then I sneak out of the shower. Yeah. Because here's a mom's favorite thing is just having some moments of quiet to herself. Right?
So I I'm like, they don't know where I am. For all I know, I've been mysteriously vanished, but they don't care enough to even 5 minutes. They gave up after 5 minutes. We gave it 5 good minutes. She didn't show up.
We're done. Snuck into the kitchen. I grabbed my water bottle. I grabbed my book, and I was gonna sneak back into the bedroom. And You got busted.
I hear no. I hear Bec coming up the stairs, and I went, oh, no. I gotta hide from Bec. So I we have a partition between our wall and our kitchen, so I Right. Hid on the other side of the wall.
And he, for a long time, was just kind of pacing the kitchen. And so then I was doing that thing, like, are you going left? Are you going right? I our paths are not gonna cross because the second he sees me, he's gonna be like, hey, Emery is looking for you. And I'm gonna be like, I'm gone.
I'm lost. I I'm disappeared. So I finally made my way to the bedroom. I turned on the television. I've got my book set up.
I don't know what I'm gonna do, but I have a quiet minute to myself. Yeah. And then here comes Emery again. She found you. I'm gonna look for mom again.
And I jumped off the bed, hid, but hid on the side of the bed. And I think it was eventually the dog that made her way over to the side of the bedroom. It was like, she's been here the whole time, dork human. That's hilarious. So, what did she need?
You know, I I honestly couldn't tell you. I don't know. Okay. I don't know what it was. I don't know if she even remembered, but 5 minutes.
Yeah. That's enough. If you don't if if we can't find you in 5 minutes, we'll find you eventually. You only find me when I want you to find me. That right?
Mhmm. Uh-huh. Well, I'm glad you were found, though. That's good. I'm sure you were wishing that you hadn't been and that the dog didn't give you away.
Yeah, dog. Get out of here, you dog. Leave me alone. And then, eventually, I came upstairs, and all of this was settled. And the dust had settled, and the chaos was done.
And I 3 hours later Look. Everybody's come upstairs, they're like, has anybody found mom yet? Yeah. Did you find her? Oh, there she is.
Cool. Alright. Well, good night, everybody. Sleep good. We did some school shopping over the weekend, and I'm we just have 1 kid in school.
Yeah. I know. It's kinda weird. It is weird. But in high school, like, we're done it was weird when we were done with elementary school and and moved just to middle school and high school.
Yeah. Our son graduates, and then we have our daughter is still in middle school. Now she's done with middle we're done with middle school. Now we have high school to deal with. Just yep.
Four more years, and then we are done with kid's school. Is this weird? It is weird. Kids' school. Kids' school.
Yeah. So I did a lot of shopping at the mall. We did a lot of shopping for her. Got her some new school clothes, got her some shoes, the essentials. We mostly shopped at the mall, but then there was a store we needed to hit on the next day.
So we hit you know, I spent a lot of money, hit the mall. For sure. And then we were like, oh, we had to get a couple of other things. While we're at this other store, we saw, you know, some more clothes that she was like, oh, these are really cute. Can I get this, and can I get this?
And I said, yep. Well, that's fine. That's fine. And I happen to look over and see some really cute magnets. You know, $5, maybe 8.
I don't know how much they were. Okay. Cheap. Right? Just little magnets.
Fridge magnets? Fridge magnets. K. And I go, oh, these are so cute. And she goes, well, you could get those if you want.
Oh, well, that's nice to Oh, can I? To let you know. Can I? After spending a bunch of money on you, am I allowed to have these $5 magnets? Yeah.
That's so nice. Nice she worked those into your budget. So nice of you. Thank you. Did you get them?
I did. Wow. Are they on the fridge? Yes. I didn't even notice.
That is my that was my big purchase for myself. Are they I was allowed. Are they more succulent ones, or what'd you get? Yes. They're more succulent ones.
Okay. I did notice there was one, and I went, I don't think I've seen that one before. But okay. Good. You like those cute little succulent magnets.
I do. Yeah. These ones are different. I the it was like a like a purplish hue to it, and I went, what is that one? I don't I don't remember seeing that one.
Different, shape. It was a different shape and a different out. Yeah. But it's not enough for me to go, somebody get new magnets? You should say, hey.
Who got new baggage? Who approved this purchase? I want to let mom get something. Mom doesn't get to shop. That's that's awesome.
You can go ahead and get those if you want. If you want. I mean, it's up to you. It's if you want them. That's nice.
Thanks, dear. Okay. I feel like our son might be a little bit of a hypochondriac. What gives you that idea? He was a little he couple weeks ago, he told us that he I think I might be lactose intolerant.
This was this was months ago, and and he stopped drinking milk because he felt like he was lactose intolerant. Hasn't been diagnosed with it. No. Just feels like he doesn't feel good after he drinks half a gallon of milk. And I said, maybe you're drinking too much milk.
And now he Could be that. And now he thinks he's allergic to sugar and Right. Or maybe he's just eating too much sugar. Could be that. So then we're out shopping over the weekend, and he something came up about a bunion.
I think maybe there was a billboard or something about a bunion. And he goes, I think I have bunions. What? I didn't I didn't even say anything for a minute. And we didn't say anything either because we all know, like, oh, great.
Here we go. And he he goes so it was quiet, and he said, just thought I would share that with the class. What? And then Emery pipes in and goes, please don't share anything else with the glass. Are you serious?
Wow. Because we're all a little bit tired of hearing about Beck's ailments. When did he get bunions? Does he know what bunions are? I've never heard him once say anything about his feet hurting.
He doesn't have bunions. He doesn't. He doesn't. I guarantee it. He just saw something and went, oh, I bet I have that.
Okay. I don't I don't know how to I don't know how to help. And I think that's why Emery and I didn't say anything because we were like, oh, here we go. Here we go. He's lactose intolerant.
He's allergic to everything, and, you know, he has bungees. He did tell me he goes, I don't think I'm lactose intolerant. And I went, oh, really? Could've told you that. You've been drinking milk your entire life.
You've never had a problem. Yeah. And I'm sure it could come up later, and you could be like Yes. But I just really think it's a moderation thing. For sure.
For sure. Like, he's just overdoing it. You you can't drink that much milk and feel good. You gotta maybe drink half that much and maybe see how that goes. A little bit of milk.
Not a tall glass. No. So he has buttons. Well, we gotta get him checked out. No.
Take him in. I think he'll be okay. Like, buddy, go get those buttons. Part. He has all these ailments, and then I say, well, let's go to the doctor.
Right. No. I just don't wanna do that. Right. No.
I'll just live with my bunions and lactose intolerance. Suffer in silence. Yeah. I'll be fine. Congratulations on your big, big day.
Thank you. What a big day. I, no, I really appreciate it because it does need some accolades. I definitely deserve some awards. For Sunday, I decided, hey.
You know what? Fishing adventure for this guy. So I I don't wanna drag you along. I always wanted to go. I'll do my thing.
Nobody needs to waste their whole day watching me fish. I'm gonna go fish. I'll be back. Yep. I took off.
Yes. And I came back. And later on, we were walking the dog that that evening, and I found out the the dishwasher food trap thing Filter. That has been driving you nuts and you've wanted to have taken care of for a long time. You finally took care of it.
You bit the bullet. You did the thing. Let's hear about it. For months for months, I've been using it to that. To do this long time.
Out from watching a YouTube video is that you're supposed to clean that out every couple of months. K. We've had our dishwasher for For a couple years? Couple years Mhmm. And it hasn't been cleaned out once.
Alright. So It was long overdue. And I could tell it was long overdue because it's Yeah. Donk. Right.
When we would unload the dishes after a cycle, it just would stink. And when you had other dishes waiting to be washed, it was real bad. Yeah. And then it got so bad that I was like, I'm just gonna, like, hand wash the dishes rather than put them in the dishwasher because I don't even wanna open the dishwasher. It stinks so bad.
But every time I'd have a free moment, I'd say, I should do that. I should really do that. But who wants to do that? It's the worst Nobody wants to do that. Worst household chores.
Nobody wants to do that. Gross. Yeah. It was so gross. It was so gross.
How gross was it? So gross. But I did it, and it's done. And now I love the dishwasher. It's filthy.
It looks all it looks all shiny inside. Would rather have bought a new dishwasher than clean out that filter. Wow. I know. Pretty gross, though.
It was pretty gross. I did find bits of plastic. Oh. And I found bits of porcelain from, like, Dishes that had cracked and broken in there. That's an interesting find.
Yeah. Any, any other treasures? Some hair. Gross. How'd that get in there?
I don't know. But, cleaned them all out, and now it looks so fresh and so clean Yeah. Clean. And it doesn't stink? Doesn't stink, and then I rinsed it all out with vinegar.
And wowza. It's so pretty. It's so pretty in there now, and it smells okay. Do you wanna know what I noticed? What?
The vacuum is still in the living room. Yeah? Are you gonna It's still have to say? What do you have to say? I just After all I just wanna know when you an entire day to go fishing When are you done with it?
Stayed home and cleaned I mean, look. How you spend your day is your business. Excuse me. Are you gonna complain about the vacuum at this very moment? I I wanna know when because you said you weren't done with it yet.
So I just wanted to know when the when that project will reach completion. You'll know when the vacuum has disappeared from the living room, so you don't have to ask anymore. Okay. When the vacuum is gone Yeah. You'll say, oh, she's finished now.
So do not ask again. Because it's been a couple weeks, it feels like. It has been. Okay. I'm aware.
What are you waiting to do? You don't need to worry. You're pretty little head about it. Just go catch those fish. I will.
You just go enjoy your day. Yeah. Look. You chose to spend your day doing that. I know I did.
But I also Yeah? You don't get to complain about the stuff. No. The the dishwasher's great. I just the vacuum was well before that.
No. I know. I just I I'm just trying to line up the projects. That's what I'm saying. Need to.
It's none of your concern. It is, though. No. Don't worry. Your pretty little head.
My my pretty little head isn't worried. Just wanna know. More concerned than worry. Don't concern yourself about it. Okay.
You'll know it's finished when the vacuum is gone. Got it? Maybe today? No. Not today.
Maybe today? How about Yeah? Since you get home before I do Right. You could vacuum. Right.
That's but that's what I'm saying. What needs the vacuum? I'll miss you a list. No. I don't want a list.
I don't need a list. I just need you to explain the project that you keep saying because you vacuumed everything and then said, I'm not done with it. Because I need to go get the hose so that I can clean the couch cushion cracks because that's what I wanna do, and, also, like, the baseboards. Right. Mhmm.
You are more than welcome to do that project since you get home before I do it and since you're the one that has the problem with the vacuum being out. Sure. Sure. Sure. Absolutely, you could do it.
Could. Then don't concern yourself. Just keep being pretty. I'm with me. Yeah.
You just go fishing. Alright. I was eating some cereal the other day with Emery. Uh-huh. And the cereal came from a bag.
Yes. Because that's how we roll. That's how we roll. And as I'm pouring my cereal, Emery said, you know how you talk sometimes about, like, what's a rich person thing? Like, when you were growing up, you knew somebody was rich if they had, like, a trampoline.
Like, in my day everybody has a trampoline now, it seems like. But in my day growing up, it was like, wow. You have a trampoline. That was like a rich person thing. Or what's some other things?
Obviously, the big things. If you had a swimming pool, you were rich, but there was, like, smaller things and you're like, oh, maybe it was like, you have 2 cars? That's rich people thing. That's a it's Emery said that's a rich person thing if you got to have name brand cereal. If you had a box of cereal, that's a rich person thing.
We have bagged cereal. That's how we roll. It just goes longer, and it tastes just as fine. It does. Now you were saying though because last night, you were like, I feel a little snacky, or I guess it was the afternoon, and you said, I I feel like, I'm gonna have a bowl of this cereal.
But you said that the bag Cocoa Puffs weren't as good as the real Cocoa Puffs. That's true. They're not. I actually said the bag of cocoa pebbles were not as good as the bag of cocoa no. Sorry.
The bag of cocoa puffs were not as good as the bag of cocoa pebbles. I see. Because they're different sizes. The different. Like, cocoa puffs are the circles.
Right. No. I know. Cocoa pebbles are, like, the little Right. Flat pieces of cocoa, and those taste better.
Do you get better chocolate milk after the pebbles or the the puffs? Oh, we might have to do a test. I think you get better milk from the Cocoa Pebbles. I wanna do a test now. Cocoa Pebbles, you get better chocolate milk?
Legit Cocoa Pebbles or off brand? Either. You get better chocolate milk from the pebbles than the puffs. I agree. I was trying to think of my bowl of cereal.
Yeah. The puffs stay crunchy longer, and I appreciate that for the puff cereal because I do like it to I don't like it soggy, and the, pebbles get soggy very quickly. Agreed. But that's its own thing. I kinda wanna do a comparison, like, a blind test where I get, like, a a bowl of cocoa puffs, name brand, and then a bowl Oh, you wanna get name brand?
Yeah. And then compare the 2 and see if somebody can tell the difference. But I think they can just by sight alone because the off brand Cocoa Puffs are oblong. They're a weird shape. I don't know what they are.
They are. I ate them yesterday. It is The off brands are a weird shape. Yeah. It's like there were, like, 2 coco puffs, like, meshed together.
I'm telling you. It looked like an 8. It's an oblong shape. A snowman without a head. Kind of.
Yeah. I'm telling you. I just looked at it yesterday, and I went, that's a weird that's a weird shape. Uh-huh. I'm gonna we're gonna well, I'm gonna taste test this.
We're gonna see which tastes better, name brand or off brand, if you can tell the difference. And which one makes the best meal. Yeah. Alright. We'll do it with Cocoa Puffs and Cocoa Puffs.
Not gonna know what to do with real cereal in the house. I don't wish She's gonna be like, where are we, Brit? I can't have friends over. They'll get the wrong impression. Were you allowed to wear your school clothes, your brand new school clothes before the 1st day of school?
I don't think I ever worried about the clothes. It was the shoes. I wanted to wear my new school shoes, and that was where it was like, no. Go change your shoes. Those are for school.
I'm like, but they were new shoes. We were not allowed to wear new school clothes or shoes before the 1st day of school unless there was a big deal in Burley, Idaho where I grew up called the Cashew County Fair. Yes. And that happened a week before school started, and you could wear your new school clothes to the fair. And that's kind of like your it was like the Met Gala for Burley.
It was like you would see people there, and you'd be like, oh, look at you and your school clothes. It was like your presentation. Yeah. A little promenade. Yes.
It was. But the kicker was it was still the middle of August, so it was still a 100 degrees outside. And you're wearing fall clothes. And you'd be wearing flannel and corduroy pants, and you'd be like, you're like, what do you buy that? Flannel and corduroy pants.
It was the nineties. I don't know that those 2 went together ever. Did I ever say that I knew anything about fashion? I mean, I'm I'm gonna give it to you for being in burly, but Corduroy and flannel probably was the thing. That feels right.
I don't know if I ever wore them together. No. I probably wore them together because I have I had no fashion sense. I still don't. Plus, also, my You look great.
What are you talking about? Years credit cards. So that's where we bought our clothes. So it was like, whatever Did you shop in the lumberjack section exclusively? Or I mean, you could have gone to, like, the junior's department and shop there.
No. You didn't have to get corduroy and flannel to match your ax. What are you talking about? Whatever. Got this new chainsaw helmet too.
What? Quiet down. So what you're saying is you were not allowed to wear anything but your new shoes? No. No.
I'm saying I I wanted to wear my shoes and was told not to. Oh. I didn't Did you I didn't care about clothes. Sneak? Did I sneak my sneakers?
Yeah. Exactly. I don't not that I remember. You were like, I'm gonna show my mom. I'm gonna wear these.
I probably just wore them. I don't know that it was that big of a deal. I don't remember I don't like, there was always go change out of your school clothes before you go outside to play when I was little. Yeah. But I don't remember I don't remember it being, like, a huge ordeal.
You can't no. Don't wear that. I I don't remember wearing it, but I also don't remember it being a big deal in my house that we shouldn't wear it. Emery asked the other day. She said, mom, are you gonna be like dad and tell me that I can't wear my school clothes until the 1st day of school?
And I don't think we've ever really never done anything. Yeah. On our kids. I don't have a problem with it. I don't either.
It's just clothes. It's just clothes. I mean, that you know, wear the novelty off real quick if you if you'd wear them before school, but I don't whatever. I don't care. Clothes.
She said you told her that she couldn't. When? I don't know. I don't remember. I really that that as as as much as I don't remember it being an issue in my house growing up, don't remember it being an issue in this house either.
Okay. Well, there you go. I don't have an issue. I did ask on the classy 97 Facebook group. Not the group.
Just the classy 97 page. Uh-huh. Were you ever allowed to wear your school clothes before school? Let's hear it. Tell me your stories.
Alright. Classy 97. Wear your clothes to the fair? Yeah. Like me?
And, also, was it corduroy and flannel? Because what a look. I'm saying. I'm saying. Good good choices you made.
I had my, text that I was gonna do my research on for this, what we're gonna talk about, and then I swiped it away. Hang on just a minute. Okay. You were at the farmer's market over the weekend. Yes.
You sent me a text about some kid. It was a grown man. You said, dude, a rollerblader just rolled through. Just one, but super rad. I miss my skates.
That's what you sent me. Yeah. You used to be an inline skater. Yeah. Right?
I did aggressive inline. Oh, aggressive. Yeah. That's what it's called, because I wasn't like, like, a speed skater or, like, a recreational rollerblader. The skates that I have and that I wore and that I did aggressive inline, I still own.
Why were they called aggressive inline? Because they're built for, like, grinding on curbs and sliding down rails and, any of that stuff? You did? Yes. I've never seen you do any of that.
It's because you didn't know me in high school. Well, why didn't you do that? I knew you at 22. Why did you do that at 22? I don't know.
I used to skate a lot, and I saved up a bunch of lawn mowing money, and I bought, some aggressive inline skates that I still have to this day. I still have the receipt for them because why? I don't know. Why? Why do I still have it?
It's in the bag with them them because I got a skate bag, and I said, I might as well throw the receipt in there. So I still have that. So I can still show you how much I paid for them. Try to take them back. Yeah.
Hey. I still have these. Okay. So then you said I miss my skates, and I said, you still have them. Get them out.
And you said, they're street, not recreational. Correct. Okay. Doesn't mean you still can't get them out. No.
I can, but where am I gonna go We have a lot of we have a lot of streets. You can No. Inline skate anywhere. No. Like, you know how you watch the skateboarding in, in the Olympics Yeah.
And it's different than longboarding? Yes. That's the difference. These are built for that type of skating, not for going around the green belt. So go to a skate park.
Where do you have to go to skate with them? Go find that place and go skate with them. I don't understand. I used to skate took out all the rails and curbs because we skated there all the time. I don't And then they get angry about it when you just do it around town, and then they put all these little metal brackets on every piece of curb so you can't grind on them.
If they had a place that you could skate, would you light up those bad boys and do it? At a skate park and go do it. I I need a new helmet, first of all, because my my helmet that I had when I was in high school probably still fits, but you're not supposed to wear a helmet that's 20 something years old. There's some safety in there. And I haven't I haven't done it in a very long time, so I'm probably rusty.
Also, you did say to me in this text message, some guy would throw sticks in front of me with his adopted kid. That's because you just recently watched that movie. Oh, yeah. I thought that happened for real. No.
It didn't happen to me. I just know that you thought you would have thought that was funny, referencing a movie that you liked. Oh, what? That was just for you. I did not.
That was for your own amusement. I really thought that happened to No. No. That's very specific to a movie plot. That makes me laugh.
Well, I'm glad now. I sent you that days ago, and you've just been sitting there going like, why? What? Did someone throw sticks in front of him? No.
I'm glad that didn't happen in real life, Josh. It didn't. Not to me. It happened in real life to somebody. Maybe I'll get them out.
I'll think about it. You should. I wanna see what kind of tricks you do. I'll have to think about it. I gotta get a helmet, though.
That's important. It's very important. Aggressive. In line. Classy ninety seven.
It's Josh and Chantel, and it's time for the would you rather this or that question of the day. Would you rather have a food fight or a water balloon fight? Water balloon fight. Yeah. Me too.
Would you have a This or that? Would you rather have a water balloon fight with the other person having water balloons, or would you rather have like, you have water balloons and the other person has food? No. I have water balloons. That's not how it works.
Nope. You can't change it in the mail. Okay. Okay. Would you No.
We already answered the question. Water balloon fights better than food fight. Okay. Alright. Food fight is involved and so is water balloon.
So it's a food fight, water balloon fight. No. You're changing it again. No. No.
No. I know. Listen. No. You listen.
No. You listen. Would you rather have a food fight at somebody else's house so I don't have to clean up all the balloon shrapnel? Okay. If we're having a water balloon slash food fight Would for not throwing the food or are you throwing the water balloons?
Are you being hit with the food or you're being hit with water balloons? No one will hit me with food. You you have food. I have water balloons. I'm not getting touched by food, and you're drenched with water balloons.
It's the way it's gonna go. Are you saying that I you're not gonna be you're gonna dodge the food that I'm gonna throw at you? Is that what you're saying? That the water balloon is a better projectile than a handful of whatever food you're gonna grab and try and sharpen. Potato?
You're gonna grab a potato. There's a potato sitting there? Yeah. No. A baked one.
No. There's not. Yeah. There's No. There's not.

No. It's cooled down. It's a cooled down hot potato. Why is there a cold baked potato sitting around? Because we just had a barbecue, and that was potato didn't get eaten.
When's the last time you had baked potatoes at a barbecue? There people have baked potatoes at a barbecue all the time. Say when did people. I said when did you. When's the last time you had a baked potato, let alone a baked potato at a barbecue?
It's been a minute. It's been a long time. There's no way there's a baked potato sitting there. Okay. Then there's gonna be There's a bowl of chips.
It's mostly crumbs because all the good ones are gone by now. There's gonna be corn on the cob. There'll probably be some corns on the cob left over there. Be some hot dogs and some hot dog buns. Those are pretty good projectiles.
