[00:02:12] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah. [00:02:22] Speaker C: I mean, early 2000s. [00:02:24] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I remember them for sure. [00:02:27] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:02:28] Speaker B: So looking forward to having him on stage. We just got done helping his. His team, his camp load all the stuff in. We did that for him today, so it's kind of cool. [00:02:35] Speaker A: And. [00:02:36] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, got a bunch of equipment, bunch of old, old style, type of equ. [00:02:39] Speaker A: A lot of equipment. [00:02:41] Speaker B: It'd be a good show. [00:02:43] Speaker C: So going to our relationship to tell the backstory. Of ours. From my perspective, I knew Matt Russell, who ran. You know, runs the Rockham Motor Speedway. And you didn't. You didn't even go to the. [00:03:03] Speaker A: I was. [00:03:03] Speaker C: You were traveling. [00:03:04] Speaker A: Yeah, I was out of state whenever that was going on, when we did. [00:03:07] Speaker C: The tailgate at the speedway. So Bec. Super good friends with Matt down there, his family, you know, brother, dad, everybody, they were amazing. [00:03:20] Speaker A: The Russells are an amazing family through and through. [00:03:23] Speaker C: And we just kind of grew this bond just in that time being there. And I think also, not to compare it to, you know, war or military, but I do feel like when you go through things with people like Taylor King, tall boys and the grind, the. [00:03:37] Speaker A: Relationship form is forged in fire, baby. [00:03:41] Speaker B: Camaraderie. [00:03:42] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:03:42] Speaker C: You form bond of, like, man, we went through that together. But so we got to experience that. Because he says, you know, Matt's like, hey, I want to come up and I want to work it. Like, I want to help out. I'll haul the camper. All this stuff brings his camper up, brings the family up. You know, Gracie's just running around. [00:04:02] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:04:03] Speaker C: Driving superstars, you know, and at Clinton, she starts off all, like, mellow. And then by Bloomington, I mean, she's whipping golf carts around, yelling at people. [00:04:12] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:04:14] Speaker C: He bring this friend, and I'm like, I don't care. Yeah. If your buddy. Hey, man, my buddy's coming up. [00:04:19] Speaker A: Is it cool? [00:04:20] Speaker C: I don't give a. I mean, that's fine. [00:04:21] Speaker A: And I'm. [00:04:22] Speaker C: Whatever. And again, we got tons of stuff going on. You show up, and you're in this. [00:04:28] Speaker A: Boot fresh, and I. Ankle surgery. [00:04:31] Speaker C: Yeah, fresh out of ankle surgery. And he's, like, talking about how he's going to. Yeah, whatever. But you were like, did you know you were making your rounds and doing stuff, and you felt bad even because you were kind of in a boot? And we sat up that first night on stage, I think that's when we really got to sit down and talk about our past of manufacturing and, you know, backgrounds of stuff, and, I don't know, just going through it. Then you surprise me and say, I got to go back to get this boot off on Monday, but I'm gonna fly back to Bloomington, and I'll be there to help. And you were there and went through the whole grind of setup. [00:05:20] Speaker A: Oh, my Lord. [00:05:22] Speaker C: And what did you. [00:05:25] Speaker A: What was your. [00:05:26] Speaker C: What did you spend the time doing? Name a list of some shit that you got into in Bloomington, because Bloomington, I think, is when you really got roped into a ton of stuff. [00:05:33] Speaker A: Yeah. I mean, we done a lot of the electrical stuff or whatever, putting out the spider boxes, running cables, helping out all the vendors, doing the wi fi boxes with the guys, doing the lights at night, helping with the stage prep stuff. And then, of course, also got to have fun with the raising rowdy crew, you know, from shooting T shirts off into the crowd to shotgun Beard. [00:05:56] Speaker C: Got up on stage. [00:05:57] Speaker A: Yeah, got up on stage a few nights in a row in Bloomington. That was a good. That was a pretty good time. [00:06:02] Speaker C: And so what sparked that is one of the first nights we went out to campground. Was it N7? [00:06:11] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:06:12] Speaker C: I don't know why N7 jumps in my mind. [00:06:14] Speaker A: 17. 17 shout out. N17 legit fun time every time. Because we would always. We would shut down the concert series every night, and once everything got kind of caught up, we would go out, hit the campground every night, and we would start off there and work our way around to all the camp sites that were popping. [00:06:35] Speaker C: And, man, but that first night is always the best because no one's hungover. Going pretty hard. [00:06:39] Speaker A: And that's where the name come from, if you remember. Uncle k. Right. [00:06:44] Speaker C: So N17, going back to that, we show up, and they are kind of hesitant at first, if I remember. Of like, yeah, I don't know, guys. You know, you guys get out of here. And I mean, I'm not talking. Ten minutes later, our shirts are off, and we're taking some group picture. And some guy. Some guy or somebody. I don't know who coined it, but somebody was like, man, you look like CO Wetzel because you had. [00:07:09] Speaker A: I had a long, long with the stripes in the side. [00:07:13] Speaker C: Old racing stripes and everything. And. [00:07:16] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:07:16] Speaker C: And then from there, it was just. [00:07:17] Speaker A: Uncle Co. Yeah, I heard it everywhere I went after that first night. So everywhere we went. If I got on a cart to ride, to go, you know, help a vendor out or whatever, or go move cattle gates, it did not matter. You would hear it and, you know, it just. All day, all night. Uncle God. [00:07:36] Speaker C: Are you gonna bring the racing stripes. [00:07:37] Speaker B: Back for Bloomington, start growing it out? [00:07:40] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm probably gonna start growing it out, which I'm gonna make both of them this year. I'll do two of them again this year, but this time it won't be like last time. It has to be prepped. I mean, last time, Matt Liter and I jumped on a flight Wednesday and come out. [00:07:55] Speaker C: That's wild. [00:07:56] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, that's just me. I'm an adventure person. Y'all got to kind of see that. You can call me you know What I mean? 5:00 in the afternoon and say hey, I want to do this tomorrow and I don't care where it's at. Texas, California, don't matter, let's go, let's go. [00:08:11] Speaker B: So you're a single guy, you know, so you're able to kind of just pick up and take off and go see some sights. [00:08:19] Speaker C: Kids. [00:08:20] Speaker A: Yep. So I have two kids, Zach and Alexis and I actually, actually have two grandchildren. We just celebrated Matthias. Yeah. Grandpa Co. So we just celebrated Alexis Mateus first birthday right before I come up here. So yeah, living life baby. Wide open. [00:08:38] Speaker C: Living life. [00:08:39] Speaker B: So we camped similar fairly close. Yeah, right there in, in Clinton. I didn't know who you were. I didn't know Matt, but I think I filled up you guys camper a couple times with water and stuff like that. And then Bloomington, Matt was right next to us and so got you guys a little bit more. But the, the prominent night that I really got to know Uncle Co a little bit was, was that one night where there was a female involved. That TikTok girl. Yeah, yeah. What happened? Yeah, what happened that night? [00:09:14] Speaker A: What happened that night? So we, we had went out. [00:09:17] Speaker C: That's your, that's your day. Old cock block. [00:09:19] Speaker A: Yeah, we had went out that night to some bar downtown or whatever. When we got back we decided, you know, we wouldn it to stop because we always, you know, party till 3, 4 o'clock in the morning every morning. [00:09:31] Speaker C: Work. Yeah, I mean he put it dinner, dinner was included. [00:09:34] Speaker A: I don't remember if we ate man. [00:09:36] Speaker B: Drinks. [00:09:37] Speaker A: Yeah, but we definitely drank. [00:09:39] Speaker C: Spitting some game. [00:09:41] Speaker A: Then we get back and old Ed Sheeran Jr. Over there on the guitar, Jake Schwarco. Yeah, shout out, shout out, big homie. [00:09:51] Speaker C: I mean I watched it all in full. [00:09:52] Speaker A: It unfolded quickly. It did. I said, you know what, that's my sign to go to bed right there, you know. So that's what I did, you know what I mean? And we're talking like 3:30 in the morning. I got my head down. It's right here. Walking back to the trailer, we'll show. [00:10:09] Speaker B: The picture of uncle leaned up against the. The pole. [00:10:12] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, I got a picture. [00:10:13] Speaker A: Oh, that's what I had here on. [00:10:14] Speaker C: The pole where he slowly kept getting further and further away because I went. [00:10:18] Speaker A: And got a fifth of the Wood Reserve. That's what happened. And I come back and I said damn. I was going five minutes, you know what I mean? So then I just leaned up against the pole, started drinking by myself. [00:10:29] Speaker B: Old Schwerka moved right in, moved right on in. [00:10:31] Speaker A: I mean, I playing an old guitar look like Ed Sheeran. Kind of sounded like him a little bit. [00:10:36] Speaker C: I would have put my money on any other person, probably. And he comes in to kill. [00:10:40] Speaker A: That's it for the kill. [00:10:41] Speaker C: And I've learned. [00:10:41] Speaker A: I mean, it comes in for the kill. Yeah. [00:10:43] Speaker C: Can't judge a book by its cover. [00:10:44] Speaker A: No, you can't. You know you can't. You know you can't. But I mean, like I said, I mean, I'm a life lesson person, you. [00:10:50] Speaker C: Know, I've taken guitar lessons since then, by the way. [00:10:55] Speaker A: I'm a big life lesson person. So I took it as a life lesson. You gotta learn. [00:10:59] Speaker C: Don't leave your girl around the ginger. [00:11:00] Speaker A: There's a life lesson life lesson right there. [00:11:04] Speaker B: You a backpack guy? You wear a lot of backpacks? [00:11:06] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, just cause laptop mostly. [00:11:10] Speaker B: So when you carry a backpack, are you like a two strap on or a one strap left? [00:11:14] Speaker C: Right. Or do you like do like Colby, where you just carry it in front of you? [00:11:17] Speaker A: No, most of the time it's left one. [00:11:20] Speaker B: Just one. [00:11:20] Speaker A: Just one. It looks like I'm in the airport or something like that and I'll double up. But most time it's just one scariest. What are you? I know you're a backpack guy. You had the same live without a. [00:11:35] Speaker C: Laptop, I would say, I mean just general as I grab my book bag. I mean, I don't go anywhere without that book bag. Yeah, I'd say one, but I do. I'm a two guy. [00:11:44] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm a two. Like airport. [00:11:46] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:11:47] Speaker B: Generally I probably over my left shoulder. Just though. Just the long distance. [00:11:50] Speaker C: Are you left? [00:11:51] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm a left. [00:11:52] Speaker B: Well, I want my. [00:11:52] Speaker A: I want my right. Everything about you is backwards though sometimes, you know? No, I don't know. Okay, well, you look good from the back. [00:12:01] Speaker B: What about pets? You have any pets? [00:12:04] Speaker A: I mean, yeah, just like everybody else. [00:12:06] Speaker C: Got dogs, got goldfish. [00:12:07] Speaker B: Who's taking care of the dog while you're gone? [00:12:09] Speaker A: Mom and dad. They're good grandparents. [00:12:13] Speaker B: What's the weirdest thing you've ever tried to explain to your dog? [00:12:19] Speaker A: What the world. Weirdest thing I've ever tried to explain. I don't know. Cause I have spoken to a dog drunk before, you know, pouring my heart out like a counselor before. I mean, that was kind of weird when you think about it. [00:12:31] Speaker C: Yeah, that is weird. [00:12:34] Speaker A: Hey, sometimes it's just you and him, you know. [00:12:39] Speaker C: Wait, can you say that again? [00:12:40] Speaker A: I didn't hear that. [00:12:41] Speaker C: You translate that. [00:12:42] Speaker A: Okay, I hear you translator. I heard that. By the way, y'all mentioned me when Macy was here. You know, a shout out Macy because she is North Carolina girl. And you know, I heard y'all bring that up about you having to be my translator up here. I got the strong accent from North Carolina. [00:12:59] Speaker B: Can we get the peanut gallery to translate for us? [00:13:02] Speaker A: Jump in whenever you need to, bro. [00:13:03] Speaker C: We got Jason Brown, the translator. [00:13:06] Speaker B: He's out in the peanut gallery. [00:13:08] Speaker A: And an accent don't as my accent is not that strong as a southern accent. You know, I think. I think the further you go south, it probably gets worse than what I got. [00:13:19] Speaker C: I do find it funny that when you go down south or you go anywhere, whether out of the country somewhere, people like, oh my gosh, your ex ears is crazy. [00:13:28] Speaker A: Like, I just, you know, I just spent, you know, three weeks in Ohio and every bar I went to, they would lean over. What did you say? Where are you from? North Carolina. Does everybody talk like that? Yeah. [00:13:43] Speaker C: He says I'm from where I like to chew my tea. [00:13:46] Speaker A: I love sweet tea. I'm sorry, but Yalls tea up here is not the same. The few places I have found it, it's not the same. [00:13:56] Speaker C: What do you think of these? [00:13:57] Speaker A: I love these. I am a big surfside fan. We didn't even do a taste either.

So, yeah, what else is exciting? What do you do for a living? What do you do for work? [00:14:41] Speaker A: So I work for glass manufacturing company in Laurenburg, North Carolina, called nsg. So I'm a maintenance manager there. But I'm also part of the North America team where like I am here when I leave here, going to Ottawa, Illinois to help them out with some issues. So any plant that's going through any kind of problems or has got any kind of big project going on, that's in my specialty. I kind of fly out and assist. So I, you know, travel quite a bit. [00:15:05] Speaker C: The S is silent, by the way. [00:15:07] Speaker B: I was gonna say that caught my eye too. I was gonna say there's only one of them. [00:15:10] Speaker A: Illinois, Excuse me. [00:15:11] Speaker C: We can do a lot of editing, but we can't figure your speech. [00:15:13] Speaker A: Illinois, Excuse me. Just watch. [00:15:16] Speaker C: It's not plural. Oh my God. [00:15:20] Speaker A: I feel like I'm getting a lesson on speech therapy and. [00:15:24] Speaker C: Oh, we haven't even started that lesson yet. Oh God. So anyways, how do. So how long have you been there? [00:15:31] Speaker A: I've been with the company officially, I think eight years. I was a contractor for him before I couldn't work for him. So. So altogether I've probably been, I don't know, probably 12, 14 years with a glass manufacturing. [00:15:44] Speaker C: And they're making glass. [00:15:45] Speaker A: You had told me architectural glass. [00:15:47] Speaker C: Yeah, because you even said that there's like, after a certain time there isn't like an airport in the country that doesn't use this glass. [00:15:54] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. So we have some like contracts like for airports, they have to use our glass. Ballparks have to use our glass. Just different contracts like that. [00:16:07] Speaker C: The design of it. [00:16:08] Speaker A: Yeah, just basically we make all kinds. I mean we got some that you know, we make for solar panels and stuff like that. We make a glass for self cleaning glass. I mean all kind of technology goes into the architectural glass that we make. So we sell it to anywhere in the United States. We actually ship overseas in cargo containers. I think we got sales in over like 180 different countries or something like that. So it's a pretty big company. [00:16:37] Speaker B: So what do you have in like Ottawa? [00:16:40] Speaker A: Ottawa is a single float line architectural glass. They also run some first solar glass. Also. The plant that I was just in in Ohio, Rossford is. They have two architectural float lines and then an automotive float line also on site. And then Lucky Ohio is only first solar. Architectural glass. They make only first solar. [00:17:07] Speaker B: You got to Lucky or you've been out to Lucky. [00:17:09] Speaker A: Yeah, I've been out to Looky. I'll probably have to go back to Loki probably next month or so. [00:17:13] Speaker B: They still have that, that big old manufacturing building that's just run down and like halfway standing is still, still out there. [00:17:22] Speaker A: It's still there. [00:17:22] Speaker B: I remember going there. We played baseball at Lucky, my older son. And so we used to go by there and just that old old rustic building just sitting there. I mean halfway just a shell. [00:17:34] Speaker A: I enjoyed going up there. I stay in Toledo. No matter if I'm in Rossford or, or look I stay in Toled. Town's cool. I mean, it's. You can walk to all the bars. It's a pretty cool little town to hang out in. You got to meet Mike Stoll. [00:17:48] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:48] Speaker A: That's why I was. Oh, my Lord. Mike Stoll is a legend. He got to do or. Actually, I had the pleasure of getting a tattoo from him while I was there on his last business trip. So I got a monkey, a football, because that's how I feel like my life is a lot of times. So it's pretty. [00:18:04] Speaker B: It's pretty awesome to show the fans.

I mean, I think it's the only way you're gonna know if you're completely good. I mean, if not, you're gonna walk around with an itch and a burning sensation. So that's just my opinion. [00:19:32] Speaker C: Here's burns. [00:19:33] Speaker A: Huh? [00:19:33] Speaker C: Yours? Burns? [00:19:34] Speaker A: No, I'm just saying I'm assuming if you don't wipe bite good, it's going to be an itchy situation and it might burn a little bit. [00:19:40] Speaker B: I didn't know that. So I. I'm. Have you had that before? [00:19:43] Speaker A: No, I'm just. I'm assuming. [00:19:45] Speaker B: I wouldn't have assumed that Because I would. [00:19:47] Speaker C: I would never assume that. [00:19:49] Speaker A: I don't know. I got you good, trap boys. [00:19:54] Speaker C: Is this like, on a scale of 1 to 10, how often does this happen? Like, how much does it burn? [00:19:59] Speaker A: Oh, Lord. I'm not going through canceling while we're here, okay? I'm not doing this today. I'm not doing this today. [00:20:05] Speaker B: This is that intervention. [00:20:07] Speaker A: See, I. Y'all talked about an intervention. When I come, I'm here. Is this the intervention part? This is. I mean, they're gonna bust their door right now with the video cameras. Lord, no. [00:20:20] Speaker B: I saw what message you sent that 10 year old girl. [00:20:24] Speaker A: Oh, my God, that went south. What did you say? Okay, so now he's talking about pedophiles. [00:20:32] Speaker C: See how loud he gets? [00:20:33] Speaker A: He might know. I know. [00:20:35] Speaker B: As soon as you put the mic up. [00:20:37] Speaker A: Hi. [00:20:38] Speaker C: Hello, friends.

[00:20:57] Speaker C: No. [00:20:58] Speaker A: Baby got back, Baby got back, back. If it's like a country place like Chevy's, that was one of the places we went that had carried Chevy. [00:21:06] Speaker C: Chevy's, Chevy's, whatever. [00:21:08] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? [00:21:09] Speaker C: No, I thought it was Chevy, Chevy's. [00:21:11] Speaker A: Chevy's like Chevy, like a Chevrolet, Like a Chevrolet. [00:21:16] Speaker C: Okay. [00:21:17] Speaker A: It's a bar in Toledo. So you got karaoke. So like a country place. I would do like Jamie Johnson Living in color. [00:21:24] Speaker B: That's a good tune right there. [00:21:26] Speaker A: It is. [00:21:26] Speaker B: We want to play that and have them in karaoke with it. [00:21:29] Speaker C: I think we'll pull them up on. [00:21:31] Speaker A: Stage tonight with don't hit me with a good time, baby. You know I'll do it. I ain't scared of nothing. [00:21:36] Speaker B: Yeah, that's a good, good plug while we're talking about it. So. So Taylor Brinnega is opening tonight for Chris Cagle. So he's. [00:21:44] Speaker C: And he's gonna be at the festival. [00:21:45] Speaker B: He's an alum from Tailgate Beers. Sat down with us when he was here last time. [00:21:50] Speaker C: Sat down with you? I haven't got a chance to sit. [00:21:51] Speaker B: Down, but sat down with us here on Tailgate Beer's podcast. So he's. He's an alum, so appreciate him very much. [00:21:58] Speaker C: Maybe he'll pull you up on the side stage and you can do another rendition of Jamie Johnson. [00:22:02] Speaker A: Hey, I am down, brother. You know Me, I ain't scared of nothing. [00:22:05] Speaker C: Nothing? [00:22:06] Speaker A: Nothing. [00:22:06] Speaker C: Zero. [00:22:07] Speaker A: Nothing. [00:22:07] Speaker C: There's nothing. [00:22:08] Speaker A: You're scared of white women? That's it. [00:22:10] Speaker C: Snakes? [00:22:11] Speaker A: Nope. [00:22:12] Speaker C: Sharks? [00:22:13] Speaker A: Nope. [00:22:14] Speaker B: Spiders? [00:22:14] Speaker C: Not even scared of a shark? [00:22:16] Speaker A: No. I gotta be scared of a shark. I never said no shark on it, on the floor in here. [00:22:21] Speaker C: So if you're in the ocean. [00:22:22] Speaker A: So there you go. I'm not going out there looking, you know what I mean? So I don't have the fear of it, because I ain't going out there. Here, sharky, sharky. You know what I mean? [00:22:32] Speaker C: So let's say hypothetically, hypothetically, you ended up in the ocean, would you be scared then? [00:22:37] Speaker A: No. [00:22:39] Speaker C: Just floating out there. You wouldn't want to look below the sea. [00:22:41] Speaker A: This is. All right. [00:22:41] Speaker C: So we kind of want to see it coming. [00:22:43] Speaker A: Okay, so we kind of talked about, you know, last night a little bit. I do not live in fear. So we kind of talked about it a little bit yesterday. I'm pretty sure I don't live in fear of anything. For the simple fact is there's a lot of people out there, in my opinion. You know, I've traveled a lot, so I've got to meet a lot of random people in bars and airports and, you know, hotel lobbies and stuff like that. But there's people out there that live in fear. And to me, are you really living if you have fear? So I fear nothing. If it's my time, it's my time. I've had a good time while I was here. [00:23:16] Speaker B: So going back to karaoke. [00:23:19] Speaker A: Great attention in the room. [00:23:22] Speaker C: Come on back to karaoke, please. Try to keep it on track. We're on a tight moment here. [00:23:26] Speaker A: I'm sorry. I apologize for that there. [00:23:27] Speaker B: So you said one song from a country. What, like, what else would you let go? What other kind of karaoke would you do or what? [00:23:35] Speaker A: Well, like, if you're. [00:23:36] Speaker B: If you're like in a. In a hip hop bar, what. [00:23:39] Speaker A: What karaoke song I would either do and then this. This is, you know, just kind of like an old school thing. Give me that donkey butt. Come on. Ain't nothing like it. You can get the crowd going with that one. Or Sir Mix a lot, of course. You know, anything like that that would get the. Get the crowd going. [00:24:00] Speaker B: What about pop? If you're in a pop club, what would you do? [00:24:04] Speaker C: Could you do a Katy Perry song? [00:24:06] Speaker A: No. [00:24:06] Speaker B: Taylor. [00:24:08] Speaker C: Are you scared to do a Katy Perry song? [00:24:10] Speaker A: No. I don't know. None. Or Taylor Swift. [00:24:14] Speaker B: Is Beyonce and Country Carter in your top five country albums from this year. [00:24:20] Speaker A: I wouldn't even consider it country. It's just my opinion. [00:24:23] Speaker C: Grammys did. [00:24:25] Speaker A: That's their mistake. [00:24:27] Speaker C: You follow any of that? [00:24:29] Speaker A: Do I follow? [00:24:30] Speaker C: Yeah. Do you follow any of that stuff? Grammys ranked her album as the album of. She won the country album of the year. [00:24:38] Speaker A: Are you me? [00:24:39] Speaker B: Because she put a cowboy hat on? [00:24:41] Speaker A: No, I tried to listen to her song and I just. I couldn't make it through it. [00:24:46] Speaker C: But let's say hypothetically, right, she was country. Like, I don't believe it. [00:24:55] Speaker A: Still. [00:24:55] Speaker C: There's a long list of country albums that would pretty much. [00:24:57] Speaker A: I would put way ahead of that. [00:24:59] Speaker C: And I don't give a. [00:25:00] Speaker A: And to me, nothing. You know, I'm not trying to down Beyonce, but I've not really listened to her music since Destiny Child, especially growing up. [00:25:08] Speaker B: I mean, country in the country, country genre. I mean, put her in hit hip hop, put her in pop, whatever. [00:25:12] Speaker A: The Golf Brooks is going to win R B or pop next year. [00:25:18] Speaker C: Again, this is a question where I. It doesn't make sense, but the award shows and all that are so political and dumb. And it was. [00:25:24] Speaker B: It was Chris Stapleton, Post Malone. I think off top of my head, it might have been. [00:25:28] Speaker A: She beat Chris Stapleton. [00:25:29] Speaker C: There's a long list. I mean, Wallen. I mean, all of them. [00:25:33] Speaker B: Well, those were the ones that were nominated with her. Chris Stapleton was nominated? [00:25:39] Speaker C: I don't think one. No. [00:25:40] Speaker A: So the Grammys must not be voted on by fans. It's gotta be a panel or something. [00:25:45] Speaker B: Yeah, it was fans in, like, la. [00:25:47] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:25:48] Speaker B: How are you at thumb wrestling? [00:25:51] Speaker A: Oh, man, I'm not thumb wrestling in probably 20 years. Really? Back in the day, I was pretty good. [00:25:56] Speaker B: Any, like, tricks? [00:25:58] Speaker A: No, I wouldn't say tries. [00:26:00] Speaker B: Just muscle it. [00:26:01] Speaker A: Yeah, just muscle it out. [00:26:02] Speaker B: Do you go through the whole thing? 1, 2, 3, 4. Let's start. [00:26:05] Speaker A: A thumb more. Yeah. [00:26:06] Speaker B: 5, 6, 7, 8. Try to keep your thumb straight. [00:26:09] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, I can remember that. Yeah. Like I said, it's been a long time since I've been thumb wrestling. [00:26:14] Speaker B: So I got a little trick that I do. I go through the thing and then I like, take my thumb and I like, tickle right here the person. I'm playing stuff. Then, you know, they get all, you know, excited and stuff and try to. And then I, you know, do the. I usually swoop left. Swoop left and come back up. [00:26:31] Speaker A: So you got a strategy? [00:26:32] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:26:33] Speaker A: Thumb wrestling. Okay. That's real competition. You got strategy and thumb wrestling. What about you? [00:26:41] Speaker C: No, I don't. Thumb wrestling? [00:26:42] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:26:42] Speaker C: I quit school cuz I had recess. [00:26:44] Speaker A: Exactly. Hey, high school dropout. [00:26:49] Speaker B: What else do you want to talk about? [00:26:51] Speaker C: Do you find it tough to be a liberal in the South? [00:26:53] Speaker A: I'm not a liberal. [00:26:55] Speaker C: You aren't? [00:26:56] Speaker A: No. I thought you were. No. You find it tough to be a Democrat in Illinois? [00:27:03] Speaker C: No. [00:27:04] Speaker B: MFM fit right in in this part of the country. [00:27:06] Speaker C: Illinois is a Democratic state. [00:27:07] Speaker A: Okay. I'm sorry. [00:27:09] Speaker B: Mostly upstate, mainly Chicago. [00:27:14] Speaker C: And they're just Chicago and St. Louis. Yeah, but kind of it up for us. But yeah. You remember our conversation? I think I had you and did we do a group call between me, you and Matt on election night? [00:27:28] Speaker A: Oh yeah, dude. [00:27:29] Speaker C: I was like, yeah. I would say. I don't want to say I'm a postal, but I was on borderline conspiracy theory of like losing my mind that night. I think we were on the call for like 40 minutes. Talking about like civil war. Talking about like martial law. Martial law. [00:27:45] Speaker A: Oh yeah, dude. [00:27:45] Speaker C: I had like, I didn't my eyes off the computer that night. I'm like refreshing. [00:27:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:27:50] Speaker C: Stayed up all night till it finally went through. [00:27:53] Speaker B: Were you around Civil War time frame? [00:27:56] Speaker A: No, I wasn't around Civil War time frame. [00:27:59] Speaker B: Didn't know people. [00:28:00] Speaker C: Do you feel like the south won? [00:28:03] Speaker A: Obviously from what I've read, we didn't win, but. Right. [00:28:07] Speaker C: Are there still people holding on? [00:28:08] Speaker A: Oh yeah. Come on, it's the South. [00:28:12] Speaker B: You read a lot? [00:28:13] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm not gonna say read a lot. I read. [00:28:17] Speaker B: What do you read. [00:28:20] Speaker A: Most of the time? I read basically like documentary kind of stuff. So favorite book of all time is kind of weird, but Dr. Seuss quit answering my questions. But I mean I read a little bit. [00:28:41] Speaker C: You like a book? [00:28:41] Speaker A: Yeah, I read a little bit of everything. But my favorite book is A Good Day to Die. And it's weird how I found the book was I was watching Roadhouse, the original Roadhouse. And if y'all remember, when he was upstairs before old girl come in there and his brains out, he was reading the book and that's what it was. [00:28:58] Speaker C: He's been reading the book ever since. [00:29:00] Speaker A: So I looked that book up and I read it and it's awesome. I think if you like, if you actually read, you enjoy it. But because it's based in like the 70s and basically a straight up business guy met this wild crazy ex military guy in a bar down in the Keys and they went on an adventure to blow up the Hoover Dam. And it basically they traveled all across the United States doing speed, smoking pot, drinking beer, you know, doing peyotes you know what I mean? It's awesome book. It's really adventurous. [00:29:34] Speaker C: But you just saw him get his brains fucked out and you're like, I gotta. [00:29:37] Speaker A: I gotta read that book, man. [00:29:38] Speaker C: It'll make my neck bigger. [00:29:39] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:29:40] Speaker C: Has it helped? [00:29:41] Speaker A: A little bit. I mean. I mean, they say diamonds is the hardest thing in the world. Obviously they ain't seen me, you know, so. I love traveling. That's. That's the. The biggest thing for me. I think it would be hard for me to find somebody anyway just because I enjoy traveling. I travel for work. I travel, travel for pleasure. There. [00:29:59] Speaker C: For a second I thought he was. [00:30:00] Speaker B: Coming up with his own subjects. Like, that's what I'm saying. [00:30:02] Speaker C: I feel like he's really trying to just. I feel like he's really trying to turn this into tailgate beers. [00:30:07] Speaker A: Uncle. Cos we ask. [00:30:10] Speaker B: You ask your own questions or you. [00:30:12] Speaker C: I'm all out of my own. I would do. I was in a rhythm, I was feeling good. And then he just throws a hand grenade in the middle of the jaw. [00:30:18] Speaker B: Wants to go off in left direction. [00:30:20] Speaker A: Sorry about that. [00:30:22] Speaker C: We asked questions. Sorry, I can't get my thoughts. [00:30:26] Speaker A: Okay. [00:30:26] Speaker C: Will you hand me that snowmobile? The white oak. [00:30:30] Speaker B: Speaking of the snowmobile, that's a snow coot. I believe his name a bit. Snow coop. [00:30:36] Speaker C: See, they hide their name so well. [00:30:39] Speaker A: They got snow can. [00:30:40] Speaker C: Scoop, scoop, coot, scoot. [00:30:42] Speaker B: Yeah, it's pretty close. [00:30:46] Speaker A: Oh yeah. [00:30:47] Speaker C: Do you think in the year of our friendship that you've gotten more into some of these artists? [00:30:52] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. 100%. 100%. I mean, after coming up here, watching Austin Snell in person, I mean, it changed my view on him completely. And I mean, he's got a lot of good music, but. [00:31:02] Speaker C: And I said that song this morning. [00:31:04] Speaker A: Oh my Lord, it is killer. That is my kind of vibe there because it kind of got a little bit of a rock to it. That's really everybody. And he's a cool dude in general because I mean, just talking to him back here in the green room that night, I mean, just a laid back cool guy. [00:31:18] Speaker C: I mean, I was singing, I was listening to this song this morning when I sent it to you guys again. And I think. I think there's a lot more to him than even what we touched on. [00:31:29] Speaker B: I mean, look at us. [00:31:30] Speaker C: I would love to over time of like get with him again and do a second episode. [00:31:34] Speaker B: I actually have been thinking about that a lot. Just because we just got done and we're releasing now Austin's episode just Got released Mine by the time this airs have has gotten released least and, and even, even mine. I mean we couldn't get through mine without it going three hours long. [00:31:51] Speaker A: Right. [00:31:51] Speaker B: And I'm absolutely nobody, you know, I don't have any the music stuff or you know, the interesting stuff to even, even talk about. [00:31:59] Speaker C: So my mom did actually listen to mine. [00:32:01] Speaker A: Did she? [00:32:02] Speaker C: She made her cry twice. [00:32:03] Speaker B: Really. [00:32:04] Speaker C: But I did call her and tell her. I'm like, it was fucking tough. Like when you get put on the spot being so, I mean here you sit and we didn't really plan or even say we were gonna do this. [00:32:12] Speaker A: This was all. [00:32:13] Speaker C: But it is kind of tough. And we didn't, we haven't deep dived into your past but it's hard to wrap up your whole background, who you are in one episode or even 10 episodes. It's just tough to get it all out there. It's so we did get one extra listen. My mom's only listen. [00:32:32] Speaker A: It was awesome. [00:32:32] Speaker C: They drive all the damn time. [00:32:34] Speaker B: I mean Vonda doesn't listen to us on a regular basis. [00:32:38] Speaker C: It sucks. But the kind of like saddening. And they travel, they drive to Table Rock. It's a seven and a half hour drive. You're telling me at no point you thought we should listen to our son's podcast? [00:32:49] Speaker A: Podcast, yeah, it's perfect time to listen to it. [00:32:51] Speaker C: Nope, never mind. [00:32:53] Speaker B: So I've said before too and, and I'm not really a podcast guy. I don't listen to podcasts. I, I, I'm more of like the tick tock reels. I would rather put the, put the time into watching 50 TikToks that you know, eventually kind of get to the full podcast and the different conversations. [00:33:11] Speaker C: But I've never listened to a single Theo Vaughn podcast or the. But I've literally watched the whole thing through reels. Okay, but I have watched them. I just, I also don't have a drive time or I don't travel enough. [00:33:27] Speaker A: I was about to say that's the main reason why I've listened to podcasts because I got a 40 minute ride when I'm in North Carolina. It's 40 minutes to work, 40 minutes home from work. [00:33:34] Speaker C: So yeah, it's 10 to 15 minute drive here and most of the time I'm on the phone when I, you know, I'm driving. But I didn't listen more. But I see a lot of them live vicariously through real reals. Yeah, that's why we try to re, you know, release reels a Lot and, you know, have them. Being that you're probably one of our top. I'd say maybe he's in our top 20, you know, listeners. Corey. Corey, always number one listener. [00:34:04] Speaker B: Corey's always coming. [00:34:06] Speaker C: Yeah, they do call him Unc also. [00:34:08] Speaker A: Oh, okay. [00:34:10] Speaker C: That's the merch Boys, though. I don't know who gave them the authority to start naming people. But Corey is. He comments on every YouTube video. He is our number one fan for sure. So shout out real quick before you go. [00:34:25] Speaker B: I mean, on the. That where you're going with that. I mean, so Cory, like, shares our stuff a lot. He gets us followers. I'm just wondering, you know, what Uncle Co has done for us. [00:34:33] Speaker C: Matt shares them all the time. [00:34:34] Speaker A: I have shared them. [00:34:35] Speaker C: I'd say Matt's in our top five. You shared them? [00:34:39] Speaker A: I have shared them. I'm kidding. And life and commenting. [00:34:43] Speaker C: Actually, the North Carolina All. Every. All of you literally share all the time. [00:34:49] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:34:49] Speaker C: And I always love. Because I don't scroll Facebook. I don't see it, but I do. [00:34:53] Speaker A: I support my people now. [00:34:54] Speaker C: I do see that. Our one fault, you know, Matt Russell, you know, Uncle Cove are always on it. [00:35:00] Speaker A: I mean, it goes back to. I mean, I support all my people. Just like we were talking about earlier. Y'all had Macy on. I'm not a country music person, but Macy is from North Carolina. She's representing. So I do support her. [00:35:11] Speaker B: Did you know Macy before? [00:35:13] Speaker A: I don't know her personally. [00:35:14] Speaker C: Right. [00:35:14] Speaker B: But did you know. [00:35:15] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:35:15] Speaker B: Did you know who she was? [00:35:16] Speaker A: Yep. [00:35:17] Speaker B: Such a good human being and so much. [00:35:20] Speaker A: She is awesome. She is awesome. [00:35:22] Speaker C: Her team was. [00:35:23] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:35:24] Speaker B: Did you. [00:35:25] Speaker A: I hope she blows up. I really do. Because we need a new anthem from North Carolina. So Mason, if you blow up, please rewrite us a new anthem from North Carolina. Petey Pablo is about played out. [00:35:35] Speaker C: I have a burning question. How many years did you ref? Yeah. You were a referee, right? [00:35:44] Speaker A: No. [00:35:46] Speaker C: Who did you take those things from? [00:35:48] Speaker A: What? [00:35:50] Speaker C: Who did you steal those from? [00:35:51] Speaker B: We need to pan down the camera. [00:35:52] Speaker C: Oh, I took a picture of them. [00:35:53] Speaker A: Where? [00:35:54] Speaker C: That's getting posted for sure. [00:35:55] Speaker A: My shoes. [00:35:56] Speaker C: You either stole them from somebody over 65. [00:36:00] Speaker A: You can talk to Jump dog. These things are comfortable. They black on black air Maxes. [00:36:04] Speaker C: You small feet. What size shoe are you? [00:36:06] Speaker A: Ten and a half. [00:36:07] Speaker C: No chance. Those look small. [00:36:09] Speaker B: They do look a little small. [00:36:10] Speaker C: Those are rough shoes. [00:36:12] Speaker B: They're definitely rough shoes. The only thing would make them more rough shoes if you, like, sprayed that shiny stuff on them. [00:36:17] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, the shiny black polish. No, I Mean, they're just comfortable. [00:36:23] Speaker C: That's just been killing me. I've been sitting here staring at him. [00:36:25] Speaker A: I'm just thinking, I got boots for the car. [00:36:27] Speaker C: And then I started picturing him in a ref outfit. [00:36:29] Speaker A: Then I started thinking of him blowing whistles, running down the court. [00:36:34] Speaker B: Yeah, speaking of wardrobe, I mean, I. I think every time we've seen you maybe not at tailgate tall boys. [00:36:40] Speaker A: I tailgate tall boys. That's all funny shirts. Yeah. [00:36:43] Speaker B: So it's not always the best and.

[00:37:46] Speaker A: I was just there for the hot moms, bro. I love a meal. [00:37:49] Speaker C: I'm sure you had to take a plane to where you're going. [00:37:54] Speaker A: You know where he's going with us. Yeah. So I am in your top 20 listeners. [00:37:59] Speaker C: So it's a test. We'll do a little segment here, brought to you by. We'll do a little brought to you by cruisins down here in Farmington Road if ducks. We've got Peoria and West Peoria. So little cruisings moment here, if you don't mind. You're on your referee private jet, Right. You've got those things on bumping, by the way. You're probably wearing those, like, creased pants. [00:38:27] Speaker A: Those, like the black pants. [00:38:28] Speaker C: Those black pants just straight down the legs, starched. Baby whistles are clean, ready to go. So you're on your plane starts to go down. You just so happen to have those shoes. Whistles. Every album known to man in a parachute. What five albums are you listening to and grabbing. Jumping out with. You could take the whistle, too. [00:38:53] Speaker A: Okay, so, all right, so we'll start out with. [00:39:02] Speaker C: It's going down like you're at like. [00:39:04] Speaker A: Chocolate, starfish, Hot dog, Flavor water. Limp Bizkit. That whole album to me was gnarly in my day. Back in my day, I'd also would probably take the first CD I ever bought in my whole entire life. Was juvenile. The G Code. Oh. So I would take. [00:39:23] Speaker C: These are all gonna be first, by the way. [00:39:26] Speaker A: Probably not. Not all of them. Then another one I would probably take South Town. Po Pod. That was an old school. [00:39:39] Speaker B: What's the name of their big song? Pod? [00:39:43] Speaker A: Let's see. Oh, my God. If you want to ask my meditate. [00:39:47] Speaker C: You're not your fan. [00:39:49] Speaker B: Like, they gotta do Mud or something. [00:39:51] Speaker A: No, they got a handful, but I. [00:39:53] Speaker C: Can'T think of America's got Youth of the nation. [00:39:55] Speaker A: Youth of a nation. Boom, boom. [00:39:57] Speaker B: There you go. [00:39:59] Speaker C: From the South. [00:40:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:40:00] Speaker C: Do you only like it because it mentions the South? [00:40:02] Speaker A: No, I mean this before that. This is, I think their second or third album was South Town, but it's just about. Like I said, it's music I listen to over and over again. Limp Bizkit. Limp Bizkit. [00:40:14] Speaker C: Pod. [00:40:14] Speaker A: Pod probably be. Oh, well. Juvenile. The G Code. [00:40:20] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. Juvenile, Skynyrd. [00:40:23] Speaker A: I would do. I would do probably. [00:40:29] Speaker C: This is your thing. I mean, Back in Black. [00:40:33] Speaker A: Yeah, Back in Black. Acd. So you came and we all grew up listening to that. [00:40:37] Speaker C: Not everybody. [00:40:38] Speaker A: Well, okay. Number five. That's tough. [00:40:47] Speaker C: Remember how I told you you were gonna Dr. Dre, you're in the ocean. [00:40:51] Speaker A: Dr. Dre. Chronic. Oh, the Chronic album. [00:40:53] Speaker C: I would say those are all first. [00:40:55] Speaker A: Remember hearing those before? [00:40:56] Speaker C: Now you gotta fend off the Sharks. They're good options, though. [00:41:00] Speaker A: They are. [00:41:00] Speaker C: I mean, we listen to Limp on the way here and I mean, thinking. Now you just mentioned Pod, and I haven't even heard anybody think of that name for a hot second. [00:41:07] Speaker A: Well, I just remember, like I said as a kid, this is back, like having the CD player with the earphones or whatever. [00:41:16] Speaker C: Headphones. [00:41:16] Speaker A: Headphones. Excuse me? Headphones. You have it shoved in your back pocket as you walk into the neighborhood. Look, listening pod was one of the CDs that I had. Like I said, juvenile to. GCO was the first CD I ever bought. When I was like 12 years old, we had a place called On Q. I remember buying it and I listened to that CD till it quit playing. [00:41:39] Speaker B: POD stands for Puddle of Mud, though, right? [00:41:43] Speaker A: No, Puddle of Mud is a different. [00:41:44] Speaker C: But it's a P, O D. Puddle. [00:41:47] Speaker A: Pull of Mud is a different. Man. That's the one that starts with an. [00:41:49] Speaker B: M. Yeah, that makes sense. [00:41:51] Speaker C: No, because they're a Christian band. [00:41:53] Speaker A: Yeah, they are. I did not know you knew that. So you do know who P is. [00:41:58] Speaker C: I went to Christian school. [00:41:59] Speaker A: Oh, I forgot about that. I went to the hood school. [00:42:02] Speaker C: POD stands for is an American Christian metal band whose name stands for Payable on Debt. [00:42:12] Speaker A: Was a band back in the day. [00:42:13] Speaker C: So when I grew up up we listened to 91.5 WCIC Christian radio or 1049, whatever it was. WXCL I think it was back in the day. So it was either country, so it was like Brooks and Dunn or Christian or Christian music. [00:42:33] Speaker A: So yeah, that's what I grew up. [00:42:35] Speaker C: And there were some good. There were some good Christian bands and bands that came out and I still think are really great and there are bands to this day they're Christian that most people don't even know that. I mean our still pretty good. [00:42:44] Speaker A: Oh yeah. [00:42:44] Speaker C: But as you can see, it paid off for me, you know. [00:42:47] Speaker A: Oh yeah. [00:42:48] Speaker B: So we're a little over an hour. Yeah, I do have one stuff to do. Yeah, I do got one more question I want to ask and I'll be. I'll be done with Uncle Co. Are you a manscaper? You do a lot of manscaping? [00:43:05] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:43:06] Speaker C: Do you know what that means? [00:43:07] Speaker B: Yeah, you want to elaborate on that or like manscaping? [00:43:10] Speaker A: Anything? [00:43:11] Speaker C: Yeah, it's like landscaping but for your body. [00:43:14] Speaker A: Yes. Yeah, I'm a manscaper. [00:43:16] Speaker B: Can you elaborate on that? [00:43:18] Speaker A: Like what do I shave my balls? [00:43:20] Speaker B: Yeah, just elaborate. [00:43:21] Speaker C: You know, do the curtain. [00:43:22] Speaker B: We ask questions because we want like, you know, full responses, not just a yes or no. [00:43:26] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah, 100. I mean I. I manscape 100. [00:43:31] Speaker C: I shave, keep it clean, baby chest, back, everything. [00:43:36] Speaker A: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Just. [00:43:38] Speaker B: That's too much work. [00:43:39] Speaker A: Yeah, that's too much work. [00:43:40] Speaker B: I mean I don't think manscaping is just in your genital areas. [00:43:44] Speaker A: I just, you know, I would expect, you know, her to be. And I want to be. So it's kind of give you that bad look. [00:43:53] Speaker C: What about last night when I. Oh. [00:43:55] Speaker A: My Lord, you missed that. [00:43:57] Speaker B: This. [00:43:57] Speaker A: Yeah, I caught him up on it. I caught him up. [00:44:01] Speaker B: I went home, went to bed. [00:44:01] Speaker A: Yeah. So I had to. I had to cut her off because she just shot up down under. [00:44:06] Speaker C: But Tim was on one last night. [00:44:08] Speaker A: Oh, Tim. [00:44:08] Speaker B: Tim's got to be probably in our top 10. [00:44:10] Speaker C: He's probably top 10. He was grabbing. [00:44:13] Speaker A: He's a cool dude and often dumps him off on me. [00:44:15] Speaker C: He was grabbing my butt. Social media. [00:44:18] Speaker B: He's he's on it for us. [00:44:19] Speaker C: He's getting a little aggressive. And then I finally just said, hey, Tim, listen. You know, I'm not saying Brian's gay, but if you stuck a dick in his mouth, I don't think he'd spit it out. And he's like, really? And I walked away. And then he walked. [00:44:30] Speaker A: Took me 30 minutes to get away from him. [00:44:33] Speaker C: 30 minutes. He walked right up to you and was like, hey, there, cutie. [00:44:37] Speaker A: Yeah. Just started out like that was. I like your beard. I like your beard. [00:44:44] Speaker C: I like your beard. [00:44:46] Speaker A: He's cool, dude. Cool dude. [00:44:48] Speaker B: We love to. [00:44:48] Speaker C: I do. I love him to death. But I'm like, dude, you gotta stop touching my butt. [00:44:57] Speaker A: And then what would Tim do? [00:44:58] Speaker C: Well, and then always think, oh, what would Tim do? And, I mean, all the while he's just. I mean, he is on when he drinks. What are those, 64s? Ultra. Whatever. And Casey is just. [00:45:11] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:45:12] Speaker C: Just shaking his head, just like, what is he doing? [00:45:15] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:45:15] Speaker C: But just funny. He failed miserably, by the way, at the beer challenge. I got 100%. [00:45:22] Speaker A: I got three of five. Oh, cool. I have a goldfish. [00:45:25] Speaker C: Yeah, I got five out of five. [00:45:27] Speaker A: I also don't drink beer. I'm a whiskey guy. [00:45:30] Speaker C: I don't drink beer that much either. [00:45:31] Speaker B: So when you go to a bar, what do you order? [00:45:33] Speaker A: Triple shot of J. [00:45:34] Speaker C: So tonight we're gonna put five different whiskeys in it in a glass, and then you can try. But you will drink them until you get them right? [00:45:46] Speaker A: Okay. I drank at least a fifth last night, so I think I can do another one. [00:45:51] Speaker B: I think I could get makers and Jack. That's probably the only two that I would. [00:45:55] Speaker C: I want to do. You know who I want to do it with? T.J. perkins. Just to prove how full of shit those little bourbon guys are. Like, here, I got five bourbons out here. And do the blind test. He ain't getting even. He's not getting them. All right. [00:46:10] Speaker A: Some people just need a fucking hobby. [00:46:13] Speaker C: He needs a hobby. [00:46:14] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm not one of them people. [00:46:16] Speaker B: Got money to spend. Might as well buy different bourbons. [00:46:18] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:46:18] Speaker B: I mean, I do have a bourbon. [00:46:19] Speaker A: Room, but I love bourbon. I love whiskey. It's just my thing. And that's my order. Like, the first time I come here, we was across the street at Ducks, and when we sat down, I ordered. I said, triple shot, a Jack on the rocks. You remember. Remember the look she gave me? Nobody orders that. [00:46:36] Speaker C: And then I translated, and then she really? [00:46:39] Speaker A: That's what you're drinking. I was like, yes, ma'am. [00:46:43] Speaker B: Well, I want to thank Uncle Co. Brian for joining us and sitting down, having some fun. Some fun conversations. That hour and six minutes that we just recorded about to be edited down to, like, 20, probably. If you get 20, otherwise, we're gonna cancel. [00:47:01] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:47:01] Speaker C: Even then, we have all these texts, and what's so funny is we're in this group chat, and all the while, he is in this group chat and doesn't even live here, and we're talking, hey, guys, you guys want to go up tonight? [00:47:13] Speaker A: Y'all want to go to the gym? [00:47:16] Speaker C: He's just getting all these texts and doesn't even live here. And you come here twice. And I said this on my episode. And there's three people on this room. Room that I have become close with in different ways. And we all have our own battles. But, like, going back to. We've only known each other for not even a year, and yet having friends that would do anything for you. Hop on a plane. Come see. You came for my birthday. It's your birthday? [00:47:41] Speaker A: Yep. [00:47:42] Speaker C: Weekend, I guess, if you will. [00:47:44] Speaker A: It is. [00:47:45] Speaker C: It's. It's good to have people like this. And, you know, it's awesome to even have you on. [00:47:49] Speaker A: Love to get old. [00:47:51] Speaker C: Jason Brown on. He's been sitting behind the scenes exposing. [00:47:54] Speaker B: A little bit over in the peanut gallery. [00:47:55] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, I appreciate y'all having me. I appreciate letting me come up here and have a good time. I mean, this weekend has so far started out great. I'm assuming it's gonna end great, too, so I really do appreciate it. [00:48:06] Speaker C: Fellas, this is when we do another cheers, by the way, so before you. [00:48:09] Speaker A: Steal our thunder, y'all do the cheers this time.
