A coworker leaves after years and suddenly the day feels off, even if the work still gets done. That’s where our porch talk starts: the “missing piece” feeling, the way crews change, and how you can be happy for someone’s next move while still bracing for the chaos their absence might cause.

From there, we do what we do best and follow the conversation wherever it goes. A loose wolf dog stealing attention during an Olympic event turns into a bigger riff on why sports are better when they’re simple, surprising, and shared. We also get into politics in sports, why it feels like everyone broadcasts their vote now, and why we miss the days when people could disagree without trying to burn every bridge.

Then it’s weather whiplash, daylight saving time complaints, and a fast run through headlines and oddball stories: tariffs, a curling controversy, a pizza concept that raises questions, and a pickleball marathon record that sounds less like glory and more like punishment. We wrap with the kind of real-life comedy you can’t plan, including the mystery of shoes left outside for months and a detour into foot sizes and the little keepsakes we hang onto.

00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:02.080
I have a nice hole.

00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:36.480
What's going on?

00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:37.280
Not much.

00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:38.959
What's going on with you?

00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:40.879
I I have no idea.

00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:41.920
Are we recording?

00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:43.599
Yeah, we've been recording.

00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:47.040
We've been recording, bud.

00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:48.400
Okay, cool.

00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:50.319
I think Yeah, we're recording.

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:51.359
Good, good.

00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:54.719
So what have you been doing this week?

00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:56.079
Huh.

00:01:57.840 --> 00:01:59.920
Do you really want to know or working?

00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:01.120
I really want to know.

00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:02.719
Do you really, really want to know?

00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:04.400
Don't say it like that.

00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:05.439
Don't ask like that.

00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:05.840
No.

00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:07.519
No, don't do that.

00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:09.360
You can't do that.

00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:11.360
I worked.

00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:12.960
We worked six days.

00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:15.520
Yeah, we did work six days.

00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:24.400
They just It didn't bother me.

00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:26.240
I get there so damn early I didn't give it up.

00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:27.120
I'm waiting out here.

00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:27.599
I don't care.

00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.120
I just wish it was a little lighter so I could see the mountains over by the high school.

00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:32.240
Right, right, right.

00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:37.599
But I think I don't know.

00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:39.360
I got like this hole.

00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:41.199
Hole?

00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:48.400
Yeah, this hole that I'm missing something because after eleven years.

00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:51.280
Is it because of that cold intro there from Squeak?

00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:53.199
Oh no, no, not that I think of that.

00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:53.840
Not that hole.

00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:54.080
Oh.

00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:55.840
Okay.

00:02:56.400 --> 00:02:57.520
But I was worried.

00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.560
There's like a hole in your heart?

00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:01.759
Yeah, yeah.

00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.080
That can only be filled by me.

00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:06.000
No, that's not it.

00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:06.960
That's not it?

00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:13.360
No, it's just that we lost a person that normally.

00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:18.159
Not because of that.

00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:23.520
She left for a better position at one of our other facilities.

00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:23.919
Yes.

00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:24.719
There you go.

00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:26.400
But it's just gonna be weird.

00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:27.840
So kind of strange.

00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.680
Eleven years and I just got used to her.

00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:33.199
Seven for me.

00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:36.080
I still haven't got used to her, but no.

00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:40.080
But wish her well.

00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:41.360
Yeah, I do wish her well.

00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:42.400
Good for her.

00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:44.560
Being stuck in that what'd she say?

00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:45.199
Eight.

00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:46.080
How many years?

00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:46.639
Twenty years.

00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:48.639
Same department.

00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:53.520
It was a while in a show.

00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:55.919
So I can understand wanting to get the hell out and move on.

00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:58.719
Oh, she's never going to have a crew like us.

00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:01.280
I guess she's on her own anyways over there.

00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:04.639
That's a big one.

00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:05.759
Oh well.

00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:07.439
We'll see what happens.

00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:08.400
Yep, wish her well.

00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:12.719
I mean, we do know when she's gone for a week on vacation, what a shit show it turns into.

00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:15.680
That's all.

00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:18.800
I'm there, do my job, three o'clock, I'm gone.

00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:19.920
Yep, me too.

00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:21.759
That's kind of how I feel.

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:23.680
Nothing changes for you and I.

00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.040
It'd probably be chaotic, but that doesn't fall on us.

00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:27.759
Nope.

00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:30.160
That's why we get paid the little bucks.

00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:31.279
Exactly.

00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:33.120
I'll keep it that way.

00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:35.120
I'm just a grunt, leave me alone.

00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:37.839
I do this and that's it.

00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:41.040
You might want to talk to that lady in the office.

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:41.519
Yeah.

00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:42.480
Or guy.

00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:43.680
Whoever's in there.

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:49.120
I enjoy when they say, yeah, you gotta hurry up and get your stuff done today.

00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:50.800
You got a whole load today.

00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:51.199
Well.

00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:52.240
Yeah.

00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:54.879
Am I making the same thing I made yesterday?

00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:55.439
Yeah.

00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:56.000
Okay.

00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:58.079
Well then you're gonna get yesterday's work.

00:04:59.920 --> 00:05:01.360
Yep, that's what you're getting.

00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:06.240
No, I really have.

00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:07.839
Yeah, I haven't watched much of it.

00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:08.959
I haven't watched any of it.

00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:09.839
I don't know why I say that.

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.920
But on uh YouTube there was this I caught this thing about this wolf dog.

00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:15.040
Oh, yeah.

00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:16.720
Is that what you were starting to talk about?

00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:18.000
Yeah, exactly.

00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:21.519
Just I guess some people had this dog at escape.

00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:23.920
I think where they had the cross country time.

00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:25.680
Is it in Italy or something?

00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:26.959
I'm not sure.

00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:31.600
Guess the dog got loose.

00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:37.439
Ended up on a track or the trail or whatever for cross country and the females are going.

00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:38.639
And there's the dog.

00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:41.759
Oh my just following along and people are more interested.

00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.240
The dog got more of an applause than the people in the I just thought it was a cute story, a funny story.

00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.920
I'm like, well, yeah, if that was happening more in the Olympics, I'd be watching.

00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:51.120
I'd watch it, yeah.

00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:54.399
If I knew there was a dog in there, I'd be right there at it.

00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:59.120
Speaking of Olympics, a lot of them, you know, you get all the Olympians who are like, Yeah, Trump.

00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:02.879
I guess the Canadian woman's hockey.

00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:04.079
I mean, no, the U.S.

00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:06.399
woman's hockey team was all together.

00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:08.560
Arm and I'm singing the national anthem.

00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:09.600
That's awesome.

00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:10.240
Yes.

00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:15.199
They may not like what's going on, but they sat there and did what it's right by their country.

00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:17.040
Because it's not about Trump.

00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:17.680
Nope.

00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:18.879
It's USA.

00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:19.759
It's unity.

00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:20.560
Exactly.

00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:22.000
It's got nothing to do with it.

00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:23.279
Keep your politics out.

00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:25.680
You're there for America.

00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:27.120
You're there for America.

00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:29.360
Absolutely.

00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:32.399
Don't come there and slam this, slam that, because it's the right thing to do.

00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:32.959
Anyway.

00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:38.879
I don't know why these stars.

00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:41.120
I mean, they're great athletes.

00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:42.319
Don't athletes.

00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:49.199
Don't use that foundation to throw your politics.

00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:50.720
No, do not.

00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:53.040
Because it that's that's a problem.

00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:55.279
I remember back in the day.

00:06:57.600 --> 00:06:58.000
Sorry.

00:06:58.319 --> 00:06:59.519
Hear it something in my ear.

00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:01.680
No.

00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:10.480
I back in the day when you voted, you nobody knew what side you voted on.

00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:11.360
No, I didn't talk.

00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:13.040
Nobody came up and said who'd you vote for?

00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:14.000
Yeah, exactly.

00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:15.680
No, it's my vote.

00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:18.000
I I telling.

00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:25.360
We've talked about this before being young and my father going to breakfast somewhere with a bunch of people, all talk politics, they're all yelling.

00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:27.360
I'm like, oh crap, throw down.

00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:28.800
Then next minute.

00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:31.839
Yeah, they're laughing and carrying on.

00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:37.519
But nowadays you notice it's the leftists.

00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:38.079
Yeah.

00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:45.040
If I'm sitting down talking and I find out someone's you know voting that way, I'm not gonna hold it against them.

00:07:45.279 --> 00:07:46.399
No, that's their decision.

00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:48.959
That's what you want to do, but it let it be the other way.

00:07:49.279 --> 00:07:49.839
Yeah, exactly.

00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:52.720
Shun your family members.

00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:53.519
Terrible.

00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:55.600
You ought to smoke a turd in hell.

00:07:56.000 --> 00:07:56.319
Yeah.

00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:57.279
That's how they feel.

00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:03.519
So so so suck your toe.

00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:06.319
Yeah.

00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:08.399
Well, March 17th.

00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:10.240
27, 29th.

00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:10.560
Somewhere.

00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:12.800
UFL.

00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:14.000
UFL.

00:08:14.959 --> 00:08:17.680
Because I'm certainly not getting into the Olympics.

00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:22.639
You're certainly not getting to the bag of cigarettes either.

00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:26.160
I'm not a fan of uh baseball.

00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:29.680
Not a fan of Yeah, I don't watch a lot of baseball.

00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:31.920
Basketball doesn't appeal to me.

00:08:32.159 --> 00:08:32.799
I know you like college.

00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:36.320
I do the college basketball, and that's that's coming up.

00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:38.240
March Madness, boys.

00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:42.159
It's starting to heat up a little bit.

00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:44.159
Rock chalk jayhawk.

00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:45.759
Yeah, I guess.

00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:48.000
I'm just basketball's not my thing.

00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:50.399
Used to be back in the eighties.

00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:51.360
Oh, right.

00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:52.799
70s, 80s.

00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:54.879
When we could play.

00:08:55.360 --> 00:08:59.840
I like to play basketball a little bit back when uh my knees worked.

00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:02.000
No, I didn't even like playing it.

00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:02.799
Did you not?

00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:03.440
Nope.

00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:04.720
I loved playing basketball.

00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:05.919
I loved to play baseball.

00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:08.320
I can't stand watching baseball, but I loved baseball.

00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:09.279
See, I did too.

00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:12.320
I like to watch I'd like to play, but not watch.

00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:13.279
And hockey.

00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:14.480
Love hockey.

00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:25.360
See, if if I go to a game, a hockey game, if I'm there It's a lot different than watching it on TV, obviously.

00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:26.399
Oh, absolutely.

00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:28.639
The crowd is half the fun.

00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:35.600
And I'll admit when NHL a few years ago had a strike shortened season, basically it was half the season.

00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.440
That was great hockey because now you don't have eighty-two games.

00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:43.840
Right.

00:09:44.159 --> 00:09:46.879
You got forty games and you better do something, you better be on topic.

00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:48.480
Well say that's like baseball.

00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:51.200
Every game was like playoff hockey, and I love that.

00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:52.720
Yeah, it's like baseball.

00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:55.440
Baseball, you play 166 games a year.

00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:58.879
Yeah, once yeah, what is that all about?

00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:03.360
Holly God bullshit.

00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:06.240
No wonder they make all that money.

00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:11.039
They are higher paid than most Yeah, they're the most the biggest babies.

00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:13.759
Babies cry babies, absolutely.

00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:16.879
But uh anyways, another nice day, Tom.

00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:19.679
Beautiful day out here on the porch.

00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:20.480
Yeah.

00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:24.399
We're getting ready to drop the temps again what tomorrow.

00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:28.240
Sunday is Monday morning.

00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.159
It's supposed to be what, 27, 30 degrees?

00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:33.200
Yeah.

00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:35.840
It's 79 degrees yesterday.

00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:36.559
Yeah, it did.

00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:39.919
That's what I was telling the old ball and chain when I came home.

00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:41.679
She's like, what?

00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:45.360
Because she was stuck inside all day doing her work at home crap.

00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:46.080
Right.

00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:49.919
But it's just been beautiful.

00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:52.639
For February, this is nuts.

00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:54.080
Yeah.

00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:56.000
Well, you know what they say too?

00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:58.159
March in like a line, like a lamb.

00:10:58.799 --> 00:10:59.919
See what happens March.

00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:01.600
We got one more week of this.

00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:02.559
No more.

00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:04.639
Yeah, well, I mean.

00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:09.600
Yeah, we we're like eighteen, nineteen days away from spring.

00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:12.320
When is the first day of spring?

00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:14.799
27th or something like that?

00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:16.159
March?

00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:17.120
Something.

00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:17.519
Yeah.

00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:21.440
I know it's uh we're we're like under twenty days.

00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:25.120
Because the other day it was twenty-two days.

00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:28.480
So I'll be honest, I don't even look at that stuff anymore.

00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:30.240
Yeah, because the weather's different.

00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:35.519
I think I only know when winter solace and uh summer.

00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:36.000
Right.

00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:37.759
That's the only two I know.

00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:43.840
And then we're gonna fight forward in time again here just shortly.

00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:44.799
Piss me off.

00:11:44.879 --> 00:11:46.480
I'd rather stay right at standard time.

00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:47.440
Me too.

00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:51.120
I think that's changing the clocks back, putting them ahead is stupid.

00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:55.919
Well, your body already has a clock inside, and you're messing with that.

00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:58.720
This is the way this is when I sleep better.

00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:00.159
I just like it better.

00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:01.440
Everybody, well, it's darker.

00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:05.039
Maybe an hour and a half.

00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:06.320
Dark at eight.

00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:06.879
Oh boy.

00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:08.720
Well, I want it to be dark at nine.

00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:12.159
What the hell are you doing anyways?

00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:14.799
Yeah, I nine o'clock's when you go to bed.

00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:17.759
I like when it's dark early, I can hide on my porch better.

00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:18.480
Yeah.

00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:19.840
Yeah, no doubt.

00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:25.600
But let's go into uh let's get ready for the you know, the little dudes are out there scrambling around.

00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:32.399
So they came in earlier, I saw we'll get them in for uh their little whatever they're gonna talk about this time.

00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:34.639
We just never know.

00:12:34.960 --> 00:12:38.559
And uh folks, we'll be right back right after this PSA.

00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:40.159
And the little dudes.

00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:43.039
This is a public service announcement from the MT Alternative Podcast.

00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:46.559
That he showed that extended porch time with Mike and Tom may lead to dangerous side effects.

00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:55.679
Symptoms include saying just one more story for the fifth time, forgetting what day it is, solving the world's problems without anyone asking, and suddenly having very strong opinions about music from 1975.

00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:02.799
Medical professionals warn that porch time may cause uncontrolled laughter, unnecessary debates, and the belief that you could definitely run a podcast better than most people.

00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:07.519
In severe cases, listeners have reported staying up way too late and telling their spouse, hold on, Mike's making a point.

00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:12.879
If your loved one experiences porch time lasting longer than four hours, please seek help, or at least refill your drink and grab a chair.

00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:18.399
Remember, porch time is not recommended while operating heavy machinery, making life decisions, or pretending you're only listening for five minutes.

00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:22.159
This message brought to you by the MT Alternative Podcast, parts responsibly.

00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:27.519
You think you can?

00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:30.240
So hey, squeak.

00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:32.320
Here we are again, yeah.

00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:34.080
Here we are again.

00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:35.840
What the hell's up with this equipment?

00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:37.519
Yeah, I know, bastards.

00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:40.159
Well, I had to spend my mama come with them.

00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:42.720
What do they think they're doing with it?

00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:43.759
I don't know.

00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:45.120
I don't know.

00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:49.200
You think about this story about the wolf dog?

00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:57.200
Did he running down the oak track?

00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:01.440
Yeah, there was my nice on the cute when he stuck his nose up.

00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:03.519
Okay.

00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:06.080
Leave it to you, sweet.

00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:07.039
Notice that.

00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:09.039
No, no, leave it to the dog.

00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:13.200
But no one's talking about it but you.

00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:15.440
Yeah, but anyway.

00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:36.799
Maybe we'll come last year, but we'll do that.

00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:43.039
How do we get a lesson?

00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:47.919
That's what we do.

00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:11.279
She'll come on a ton of you.

00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:12.159
Okay.

00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:22.399
If I remember correctly, I was sending you up with some renovations.

00:15:27.039 --> 00:15:29.759
Why, why did you send them away?

00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:37.759
They were gonna give you a renovation.

00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:39.919
They were gonna walk in the home.

00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:47.919
They were gonna do you hopefully so maybe I don't know.

00:15:57.519 --> 00:16:03.120
Yes, they were okay.

00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:56.000
I told you they were making a bigger dog.

00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:21.119
And the table's like donating it.

00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:27.920
I know, I know, and it just doesn't matter.

00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:48.880
Well, I might not even see.

00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:56.960
Well, because it's one of anybody in the house.

00:17:57.119 --> 00:17:58.319
And then skill it.

00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:01.599
This kid is only for one person.

00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:02.400
Wait a minute.

00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:06.000
Mama doesn't even live in a house.

00:20:17.680 --> 00:20:22.319
Well, I told you this very, very decent people.

00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:36.559
I don't think it's a weakness.

00:20:43.359 --> 00:20:46.720
I don't want to just gonna tell you they go take a high.

00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:53.839
Well, they're just gonna ruin it for us.

00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:24.160
That's why there's like no day of them.

00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:36.240
So hey, uh well.

00:21:43.119 --> 00:21:45.119
I can have any times in body weight.

00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:51.039
I think it's more than uh I think it's eleven.

00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:54.720
Eleven eleven times.

00:21:55.279 --> 00:21:58.079
Eleven times like a big number.

00:21:58.319 --> 00:21:59.519
We have a good uh

00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:46.160
Uh oh.

00:23:46.559 --> 00:23:50.799
I guess they uh didn't like my little story about the wolf dog.

00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:52.799
No, I guess not.

00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:54.079
Squeak.

00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:55.920
I shouldn't say they.

00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:56.880
Yeah, squeak.

00:23:57.200 --> 00:23:58.000
Well, yeah.

00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:04.240
And you know he was the one that's gonna point out how it went straight up to the hoo-hoo.

00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:05.200
Yeah, of course.

00:24:05.359 --> 00:24:06.400
Well, dogs do that.

00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:08.720
It's just a normal thing.

00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:09.440
Is it?

00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:10.319
Yes, it is.

00:24:10.480 --> 00:24:11.119
Of course it is.

00:24:11.279 --> 00:24:13.359
Yeah, that's how they say hey.

00:24:13.920 --> 00:24:14.319
Yeah.

00:24:15.359 --> 00:24:17.359
Nothing like a cold nose right in the old ass.

00:24:17.599 --> 00:24:20.720
Didn't it look like he was too uh no, I don't like that.

00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:23.279
I'm done.

00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:23.920
I'm done.

00:24:24.079 --> 00:24:25.039
I'm done here.

00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:26.880
Anyways.

00:24:27.359 --> 00:24:28.319
Lots of fun.

00:24:28.480 --> 00:24:31.039
So I found some stories.

All right, we know we all know about the rising U.S.

00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:47.359
Iran tensions.

00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:48.960
Yeah, a little bit.

00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:52.640
Okay, well, we won't get into the doom and gloom there.

00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:54.640
Diplomacy on Ukraine.

00:24:54.799 --> 00:24:55.119

Peace talks continued in Geneva involving U.S., Russia, and Ukraine.

00:24:59.279 --> 00:24:59.920
Well, that's a good thing.

00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:02.160
That's a good thing.

00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:04.960
Uh domestic policy, U.S.

00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:06.799

Global tariffs were unexpectedly raised by 15%.

00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:12.559
Well, unexpected?

AP news stories include U.S.

00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:30.960
political legal development, such as Supreme Court decision on tariffs and shifts in federal prosecutions alongside immigration and public safety headlines.

00:25:31.119 --> 00:25:35.200
Well funny thing about the uh let me just point this out.

00:25:35.599 --> 00:25:39.119
How they Supreme Court said, no, you can't do that.

00:25:39.279 --> 00:25:39.759
Exactly.

00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:46.480
But yet, the Supreme Court, one of the judges also put, if you're gonna do it, you do it this way.

00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:46.960
Right.

00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:48.960
So Trump's like, okay, cool.

00:25:49.119 --> 00:25:50.400
Yeah, that's how we're gonna do it now.

00:25:50.720 --> 00:25:51.200
Loopholes.

00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:51.920
He loves loopholes.

00:25:52.799 --> 00:25:54.160
I shouldn't say I keep saying Democrats.

00:25:54.319 --> 00:25:59.599
All the lefties yesterday were celebrating until even CNN said, Yeah, he can still put tariffs on.

00:25:59.680 --> 00:26:00.640
Yeah, he can do it this way now.

00:26:01.359 --> 00:26:03.359
They named all the articles he can use.

00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:05.039
They were all like, yeah.

00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:08.880
I thought that was kind of funny.

00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:10.240
Yeah, that was a all right.

00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:12.160
We talked a little bit about the Olympics.

00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:12.720
Let's see.

00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:18.000
Yeah, uh Team USA and other nations continue strong performances, blah, blah, blah.

00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:21.359
Well, you told me a little bit about the uh curling.

00:26:22.319 --> 00:26:26.079
Uh yes, a little controversy there with Canada.

00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:28.079
Yeah, something curling.

00:26:28.559 --> 00:26:32.000
Not supposed to touchy touchy when it gets past the green little line.

00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:32.720
And they were.

00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:36.799
And it's uh see, here's the thing though, I forget to mention this.

00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:39.920
The cameras they use, you can't tell.

00:26:40.400 --> 00:26:45.359
Sweden brought somebody else in, but they won't, but you can actually see them cheating.

00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:51.200
But they, according to the Olympics, they can't use that footage because it's it's a non right.

00:26:51.599 --> 00:26:53.359
So it's like, here you go, dumbasses.

00:26:53.519 --> 00:26:55.440
Then maybe you should put cameras up above.

00:26:55.680 --> 00:26:56.000
Right.

00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:56.880
Like football.

00:26:57.119 --> 00:27:04.960
I just and then you see the little Canadian dude swearing at the Sweden guy, tell him to fuck off, or something like, oh, dude, what happened to that Canadian nicey nice shit?

00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:05.839
Yeah, really.

00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:07.519
But I just thought that was funny.

00:27:07.599 --> 00:27:11.039
It wasn't just the men and the woman, it wasn't just the men, it was the woman also.

00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:12.400
Yeah, both doing the same thing.

00:27:12.799 --> 00:27:13.279
So you know what?

00:27:13.359 --> 00:27:14.079
You don't just do that.

00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:15.680
They were trained to do that.

00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:16.240
Yeah.

00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:18.079
And now it's known.

00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:20.319
Whether it helps, I don't know.

00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:22.640
Well, yeah, I don't see anything about that.

00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:30.240
By watching these videos, again, YouTube, but just a reason they're not supposed to touch it after this line, but we'll see.

00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:31.200
Curling.

00:27:31.599 --> 00:27:33.119
Is that really a sport, anyways?

00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:36.160
Yeah, I do 24-ounce curls all day long.

00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:37.279
There you go, Tom.

00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:38.799
All right.

00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:41.039
Uh, entertainment and culture, man.

00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:44.000
Valentine's Day, week trends, nah.

00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:44.960
Valentine's Day.

00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:47.839
We all know that's just a money grabbing holiday.

00:27:48.079 --> 00:27:48.480
Yep.

00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:49.680
All right.

00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:54.480
Now we have.

00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.720
Oh, Joe Schmo on his tractor were driving by.

00:27:58.880 --> 00:27:59.119
Yeah.

00:27:59.359 --> 00:28:01.920
Can't you see we're doing a podcast, you frickin' idiots?

00:28:02.079 --> 00:28:03.200
Yeah, they don't know.

00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:03.839
All right.

00:28:03.920 --> 00:28:04.799
We're gonna.

00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:09.279
So I also we'll get out of that, Tom.

00:28:09.440 --> 00:28:12.559
Let's get to our humorous stories of the week.

00:28:12.799 --> 00:28:13.519
Humorous.

00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:14.400
Okay.

00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:15.839
Well, we knew about the dog.

00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:16.799
I already talked about that.

00:28:16.960 --> 00:28:27.599
I guess that was uh Olympic loopy cameo, a loose loose dog sprinted across a cross-country ski course at the Winter Olympics, delighting and distracting fans watching the events.

00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:28.319
Wow.

00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:33.119
We talked about how about Buddha Pizza Twist, Budapest Pizza Twist.

00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:33.599
Buddha.

00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:37.200
A pizzeria debuted a Roman era themed pie.

00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:43.359
Cheese and toppings inspired by history, blending culinary quirks with the international vibe.

00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:44.880
Okay, now wait, wait.

00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:56.079
What what does that mean you're gonna get 700 different flavors because there's 700 different countries that they're gonna cheese and toppings inspired by history?

00:28:56.799 --> 00:29:00.000
Well, how far back in we're going to Roman era theme?

00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:03.759
I mean, what yeah on there too?

00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:13.519
Yeah, in history, if we're gonna go if it's inspired by history, yes, I guess we're gonna get fossils?

00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:16.799
Yeah, and dinosaurs, bones.

00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:20.160
Doesn't sound good.

00:29:20.400 --> 00:29:20.640
No.

00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:23.279
I wanted to go a different story.

00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:24.240
That's all right.

00:29:24.640 --> 00:29:25.039
Better not have.

00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:26.079
Yeah, you better not.

00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:27.839
Okay, how about loose animals?

00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:28.559
Okay, again.

00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:29.599
Oh, wait a minute.

00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:35.279
Between tortoise releases and the Galapagos and other wildlife stories, animal headlines brought smiles.

00:29:35.519 --> 00:29:37.279
It's always animals that bring smiles to people.

00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:38.559
Animals are great.

00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:39.359
Holy crap.

00:29:39.440 --> 00:29:42.079
Did you know there's a pickleball marathon?

00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:44.319
And someone said a world record.

00:29:44.559 --> 00:29:45.359
A marathon.

00:29:45.599 --> 00:29:47.279
Pickleball marathon.

00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:47.920
Okay.

00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:50.240
Michigan athletes.

00:29:50.880 --> 00:29:51.119
Okay.

00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:52.480
That's funny in itself.

00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:58.480
Set a Guinness world record playing pickleball nearly nonstop for over 28 hours.

00:29:58.720 --> 00:29:59.680
Dumbasses.

00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:01.039
Why?

00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:02.880
Well, because who wants to?

00:30:03.039 --> 00:30:04.079
No, not dumbasses.

00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:05.119
Why would you do that?

00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:05.920
Yeah.

00:30:06.960 --> 00:30:08.799
Did you switch people out?

00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:09.759
No.

00:30:10.400 --> 00:30:11.519
I wanna know.

00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:12.960
I wanna know.

00:30:13.279 --> 00:30:13.599
Alright.

00:30:16.160 --> 00:30:21.759
Wait a bagpipers at the Olympic curling events?

00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:23.759
Yeah, but they got killed.

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:29.119
Anyway.

00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:32.400
I guess that's it for the week for uh weird stories.

00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:33.359
Weird stories.

00:30:33.519 --> 00:30:34.400
Here's a weird story.

00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:35.920
Sure, go ahead, shoot.

00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:40.000
Well, don't really shoot, just tell me.

00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:40.559
Oh.

00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:45.279
Well, I my brother-in-law's been gone for a while.

00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:45.920
Okay.

00:30:46.240 --> 00:30:47.200
Why is that funny?

00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:49.839
Well, I laugh a lot now.

00:30:50.079 --> 00:30:51.039
Oh, okay.

00:30:51.680 --> 00:30:52.559
Anyway.

00:30:53.359 --> 00:30:56.640
But he called me the other day and he said, hey.

00:30:56.960 --> 00:30:57.359
Help?

00:30:57.599 --> 00:30:57.839
No.

00:30:58.079 --> 00:30:58.319
Oh.

00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:01.839
He asked me if I had his shoes.

00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:04.000
Well, I know.

00:31:04.640 --> 00:31:07.359
He has like Well, geez, Tom, let's be realistic.

00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:08.799
You do have a dead man's jacket.

00:31:09.279 --> 00:31:12.960
Yeah, but he's got these little bitty size five feet.

00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:15.920
Is he an elf?

00:31:16.480 --> 00:31:17.680
He's close.

00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:23.279
A lot of people mistake him for a little Roberto.

00:31:23.519 --> 00:31:24.559
So so go ahead.

00:31:24.799 --> 00:31:26.319
Why is this is No?

00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:28.079
I don't have your shoes.

00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:33.759
Where that gonna get what's that gonna do me?

00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:39.359
I just thought maybe so guess where they're at?

00:31:39.519 --> 00:31:43.519
They're outside under the step right there where he took them off.

00:31:43.920 --> 00:31:44.400
Come on.

00:31:44.559 --> 00:31:45.279
How long ago?

00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:47.680
A couple months at least.

00:31:47.920 --> 00:31:53.519
Because it when he was digging the hole for the septic tank people, that was a while back.

00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:55.359
I wouldn't even put those back on.

00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:56.000
See?

00:31:56.480 --> 00:31:57.119
Me too.

00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:58.000
They should be planting.

00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:01.039
Now he wore my shoes.

00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:02.000
I don't know where you should be.

00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:04.880
So, dude, you left them out there for months and now you're looking for them?

00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:05.440
Yeah.

00:32:05.920 --> 00:32:07.200
Anyway, that's funny.

00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:08.480
I thought that was funny.

00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:08.960
Anyway.

00:32:09.200 --> 00:32:10.319
That's sad, actually.

00:32:10.559 --> 00:32:11.039
Yeah.

00:32:11.279 --> 00:32:13.200
That all you think about is pressure.

00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:17.119
Yeah, well, yeah, some people that's it, Tom.

00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:19.279
Shoes are everything to people.

00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:19.759
Yeah.

00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:24.720
Even five months later, you're in Walk a mile in my shoes.

00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:25.680
No thanks.

00:32:25.920 --> 00:32:28.720
Well, because you can't get my shoes on, probably.

00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:30.960
What size you take?

00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:32.079
Nine and a half.

00:32:32.319 --> 00:32:32.559
Okay.

00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:33.119
Ten.

00:32:34.480 --> 00:32:35.599
Tin my ass.

00:32:36.559 --> 00:32:37.359
Nine and a half?

00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:37.599
Ten?

00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:41.519
I got nines.

00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:46.240
Should we compare our feet?

00:32:46.480 --> 00:32:46.799
No.

00:32:47.359 --> 00:32:49.200
We can put 'em together and see?

00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:50.480
We better not.

00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:51.039
Oh.

00:32:51.359 --> 00:32:51.599
Okay.

00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:54.160
Well, sounded like a bunch of little snickers running around.

00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:55.920
Sound like a kind of a funny idea.

00:32:56.240 --> 00:33:01.039
Well, if we have a bunch of little Snickers running around, then you're not taking take our shoes off.

00:33:01.279 --> 00:33:01.599
Oh.

00:33:02.079 --> 00:33:03.279
Well, that's gay.

00:33:03.759 --> 00:33:04.079
See?

00:33:05.519 --> 00:33:06.799
Well, is is it?

00:33:07.279 --> 00:33:08.640
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

00:33:09.039 --> 00:33:11.519
Is it gay if we our feet do it?

00:33:11.759 --> 00:33:14.559
Does that make us gay or is just our foot gay?

00:33:14.880 --> 00:33:18.400
Well, no, but neither, because we're not going to take our shoes off.

00:33:19.279 --> 00:33:19.599
Oh.

00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:21.680
If we're playing putsies, we're gay.

00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:22.160
Oh.

00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:23.920
Why would you want to play putsies?

00:33:24.319 --> 00:33:25.839
I didn't want to play footsies.

00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:33.279
I thought we were going to compare our, like, you know, go out behind the barn and measure them and wait a minute.

00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:33.759
What?

00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:39.279
Well, we kids, we wanted to measure outside the room.

00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:41.279
I know I got 50 sizes on here.

00:33:41.599 --> 00:33:42.559
US nine.

00:33:42.960 --> 00:33:43.759
UK eight.

00:33:44.079 --> 00:33:44.319
How come?

00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:45.119
Europe 40.

00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:45.839
Wait a minute.

00:33:45.920 --> 00:33:46.160
What else?

00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:47.039
What the hell?

00:33:47.279 --> 00:33:47.759
Wait a minute.

00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:49.680
How did they figure what?

00:33:50.559 --> 00:33:51.759
I got a lot of.

00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:54.400
My foot's different sizes.

00:33:54.559 --> 00:33:57.039
Listen, in Germany, my foot's a giant.

00:33:57.279 --> 00:33:59.440
I'm Bigfoot in Germany.

00:33:59.920 --> 00:34:02.160
Do you see Kelly's frickin' shoes, man?

00:34:02.799 --> 00:34:04.319
Josh, same way.

00:34:04.559 --> 00:34:07.119
Josh wears a size 11 or 12.

00:34:07.680 --> 00:34:09.840
I think Kelly's got a size 13.

00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:10.159
Yeah.

00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:12.400
14, some stupid shit like that.

00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:13.039
Yeah.

00:34:13.119 --> 00:34:14.079
Where do you buy shoes?

00:34:14.480 --> 00:34:16.159
Fucking bozo feet.

00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:20.559
You expect like six or eight people too.

00:34:20.719 --> 00:34:22.559
Are you not tripping over those damn things, man?

00:34:23.760 --> 00:34:26.400
You have like this with the nose that beats me.

00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:32.800
Oh man.

00:34:32.960 --> 00:34:34.079
Anyway, poor fella.

00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:36.000
Yeah, that's the way it goes, man.

00:34:36.159 --> 00:34:38.239
Yeah, I have to buy all that shoe.

00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:40.480
But here's what gets me.

00:34:40.800 --> 00:34:41.599
Can't find them.

00:34:41.840 --> 00:34:46.000
Have you seen these little bitty shoes that the infant babies buy?

00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:49.440
They make little sneakers for little infants.

00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:51.440
They're 30 poppies.

00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:53.599
How in the hell are they?

00:34:54.239 --> 00:34:55.119
What's the problem?

00:34:55.280 --> 00:34:56.800
And you know what sucks even more?

00:34:57.599 --> 00:34:58.159
You grow them?

00:34:58.320 --> 00:34:59.920
Yeah, in like two months.

00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:01.280
Oh, look at how cute.

00:35:01.440 --> 00:35:02.880
All right, now get rid of them.

00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:05.519
That's why my mom browns mine.

00:35:08.400 --> 00:35:09.360
I have a spoon.

00:35:09.599 --> 00:35:10.000
Do you?

00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:11.280
I have my first spoon still.

00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:13.199
A little container and everything.

00:35:13.360 --> 00:35:14.079
That's awesome.

00:35:14.480 --> 00:35:15.039
I really do.

00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:16.079
I understand.

00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:17.760
See, there's things that I have.

00:35:17.920 --> 00:35:21.039
I have this little deer, a little ceramic deer.

00:35:21.199 --> 00:35:24.320
Oh, I was gonna say, you know, deers get older and they die.

00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:29.119
No, this little ceramic deer, it had the ear broke off of it.

00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:34.800
My grandmother gave it to me years and years and years and years ago.

00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:35.360
Okay.

00:35:35.679 --> 00:35:37.920
And she had it I don't know how long.

00:35:39.119 --> 00:35:43.599
But I've carried that deer everywhere I've gone.

00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:45.599
It's still setting in my little knick-knack shelf.

00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:49.599
Yeah, so those are the things I don't like having because I'm clumsy.

00:35:49.920 --> 00:35:50.960
Right, right.

00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:51.840
I am.

00:35:52.880 --> 00:35:54.239
Look at my little turtle.

00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:55.280
I got a dreamer.

00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:57.840
He's chipped already on the lake because I'm an idiot.

00:35:58.480 --> 00:35:59.360
Buy it with the weed.

00:36:00.079 --> 00:36:01.280
Oh, you popped him.

00:36:02.159 --> 00:36:03.920
Like, why is there water getting in there?

00:36:06.480 --> 00:36:07.360
I broke him.

00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:08.480
Yeah.

00:36:08.719 --> 00:36:10.719
I broke a lot of things.

00:36:11.519 --> 00:36:11.840
Yeah.

00:36:12.000 --> 00:36:13.199
We all have Tom.

00:36:13.519 --> 00:36:14.159
We all have.

00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:16.400
I've broken a lot of things on me.

00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:21.440
But uh beautiful day.

00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:23.440
It is a gorgeous day.

00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:25.039
I love being on the porch.

00:36:25.280 --> 00:36:25.679
Yep.

00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:27.519
The porch is cool.

00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:29.199
There's a bird.

00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:30.239
Hey, bird.

00:36:30.400 --> 00:36:31.360
That's a vulture.

00:36:31.679 --> 00:36:33.519
Oh, don't go away, vulture.

00:36:33.840 --> 00:36:34.880
We're not dead yet.

00:36:35.039 --> 00:36:35.360
Nope.

00:36:35.760 --> 00:36:37.840
We're we're getting there, but not yet.

00:36:41.199 --> 00:36:43.360
I just seen an attempted murder.

00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:44.480
Where?

00:36:44.719 --> 00:36:46.639
Over there where there's two crows.

00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:51.840
That's just an attempted murder.

00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:54.159
Yeah, there's not a bunch of them yet.

00:36:54.400 --> 00:36:55.599
Right, right, right.

00:36:55.920 --> 00:36:57.280
Little more that will be murder.

00:36:57.599 --> 00:37:01.840
The good old rebel flag flopping around over there across the yard.

00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:04.079
Ragged.

00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:05.360
Ragged.

00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:09.119
I think Tom, I think it's time he changes it.

00:37:09.679 --> 00:37:12.639
Yeah, that one's about needing to be retired.

00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:15.519
It looks like it was threads hanging off it.

00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:19.599
Yeah, it looks like it was the original Confederate.

00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:21.519
It looks like it was there in the army.

00:37:21.840 --> 00:37:22.960
It actually went through battle.

00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:24.239
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:37:24.400 --> 00:37:26.880
I'm sure it has seen some battles over there.

00:37:29.760 --> 00:37:31.679
I'm sure I agree with you.

00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:32.719
Trust me, I live here.

00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:37.199
Yeah, this morning, I think I saw a battle go down the road and come back.

00:37:39.360 --> 00:37:41.440
Who knows what goes on next door?

00:37:41.760 --> 00:37:42.719
What goes on?

00:37:43.039 --> 00:37:44.480
How the wind changed direction.

00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:45.360
Yeah.

00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:47.519
See, that's a cool little thing, though.

00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:51.599
You see it where it moves, you know which way the wind's blowing.

00:37:51.840 --> 00:37:54.320
Yeah, I'm not liking it going all over the place right now.

00:37:54.800 --> 00:37:56.639
Right now, it thing's just wrapping around the pole.

00:37:57.280 --> 00:37:58.880
Which way you want to go, wind.

00:37:59.039 --> 00:37:59.599
Yeah.

00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:02.239
We're babbling now, of course.

00:38:02.480 --> 00:38:05.920
How am I supposed to know where to pee if I don't know which way the wind's blowing?

00:38:06.000 --> 00:38:06.400
Come on.

00:38:06.639 --> 00:38:08.239
Well, you got to turn with it.

00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:11.599
You look like a frickin' sprinkler.

00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:12.400
Sprinkler.

00:38:14.800 --> 00:38:17.360
Anyways, I think now's a good time to end this.

00:38:17.519 --> 00:38:18.000
Oh, yeah.

00:38:18.159 --> 00:38:21.840
Who knows where we're going with it, but uh now seems like a good time to end it.

00:38:22.000 --> 00:38:22.960
It's a beautiful day.

00:38:23.039 --> 00:38:25.840
It's just hard to stay focused on any one thing.

00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:28.880
You sure it's just a beautiful day and nothing else, maybe?

00:38:29.119 --> 00:38:31.119
It could be maybe some mind-altering.

00:38:35.519 --> 00:38:36.320
Maybe.

00:38:37.840 --> 00:38:39.360
Anyways, folks.

00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:43.599
Have a great weekend and a good week.

00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:45.119
I hope everybody does.

00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:46.320
Yeah, me too.

00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:51.599
And uh thanks for listening to this boring MT alternative rampage.

00:38:54.800 --> 00:38:56.320
But that's what it's about.

00:38:56.480 --> 00:38:57.519
That's what it's all about.

00:38:57.760 --> 00:38:58.320
It is about.

00:38:58.400 --> 00:39:00.639
Hey, it's been a while since we've been on the porch.

00:39:00.880 --> 00:39:03.840
Yeah, a couple guys just sitting out, joining the day.

00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:04.639
Exactly.

00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:06.960
Talking about whatever comes up.

00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:08.480
This is true.

00:39:08.719 --> 00:39:10.480
But uh, Tom, it's been great.

00:39:10.719 --> 00:39:11.840
Has been good.

00:39:16.800 --> 00:39:21.840
Just want everybody to have a great week and just thank God for the gift of Gab.

00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:26.800
Everybody listen to us on all our podcast sites, Spotify.

00:39:27.280 --> 00:39:29.760
Oh, I got distracted by a little truck going by.

00:39:30.079 --> 00:39:30.639
Two little trucks.

00:39:31.039 --> 00:39:32.320
Two little trucks going by.

Later.

Peace.
