Speaker 2 (00:51):
We know that my dad calls me every morning.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
This has been a bit of yesterday, which I think
is so cute. As a father of two girls, I
think it's awesome. Anyone that give you dad crapper says.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Anything, thank you, He's amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
But like, this is all started because I am a horrible,
horrible wake up I cannot do. I set like six
different alarms at five minute increments because.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
I sounds of the same sound or same.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Sound Okay, but it's because I in my sleep turn
off my alarm clocks.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Okay. See I like the fail state of a second
and the third one multiple because fifth, six.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Seven, at the very least, I think my body can
figure out this is the last one you have to
get out. So this morning when you and I were
doing this podcast, yeah, and we came in before the
show and I was like, I told my boyfriend, I said, FYI,
I'm not gonna wake up.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
I know this is gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, so I'm gonna need you to like wake me
up and push me out of bed.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Otherwise you're gonna hear twelve alarms going off three am.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Yeah, and you're gonna be wake yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
And he so literally the first one goes off and
I hit it off. I was like, oh, yeah, let
me give it. Snuggled back in my bed right.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
Up.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
He rolls over. I'm like, oh, we're gonna cuttle too cool. Yeah,
and no, no, no, he pulls.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Off the cover's my legs iside of the bed.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
And just pushes me gently out exactly. That was so
rude and also kind of attractive. Yeah, and I just
was like sitting on the edge of the bed stuck.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Ye, I can not awake and also angry at the
same time, and also attractive.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yeah, I can appreciate morning. That's awesome. That's a good
I always say. My wife says this too. It's it's
always best to have someone who has your best interests
in their best interest, and someone who is looking out
for you, and someone who cares about you and understands
priorities are priorities. Because my wife is the same way too.
Where if I had something similar to that, whatever it
may be, where I don't want to tackle it or whatever,
or I'll postpone it, She's like, no, you need to

(02:42):
go now. I'm like, I just want to know you
get up and go, because if you lay back down,
you're just gonna fall asleep and then you're gonna wake
up twenty minutes later, and you're not gonna be the
same person as you were now. And get up and
go now.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
And I'm like all right, five and they're always right,
and yeah, they are right.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
So it's good to have someone like that versus someone
who like nables you be like, yeah, come on back
in here, you hang out.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
It was not a second thought, and this man's mine.
It was like rip off.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
The gun really pushed my legs, like so powerfully.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
That's awesome. I love that. I never met them, but
I already love based on that alone. That's amazing.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, it was great. Hell yeah, so that was my morning.
That was fly for you. How are things? Tell me
about the kid's house life?

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Life is very busy, but also what I asked for.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
That's fair.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
I asked for a family and I wanted it and
I got it. And I asked for this job and
this career path and I got it. So there's nothing
to do but just tackle it head on, like you
push yourself out a bag and let's go. I did
somebody else. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Are the kids playing sports? Are they pin where they're paying?

Speaker 3 (03:44):
Sports?

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Usually my oldest son, he'll do we usually between baseball
and basketball and throwing soccer every once in a while.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Yeah, because you were coached.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
I was coaching it. Yeah, but now I just don't
have the extra time. And it even sucks because this
last time we played baseball, I felt it towards the
end where I had some travel and then some travel
I didn't see coming and it kind of ruined the
end of the baseball season, and I felt guilty and
I was like one of those things where I was like, Damn,
this sucks. This is not how I coached the previous
season with basketball and then all that other stuff. It
just wasn't the same for me. I'm like, I need

(04:13):
to take a step back for a moment, and I can't.
We're talking about or maybe we'll be talking.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
About Yeah, we talked about in part three somebody had
asked how you handle work stress exactly.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah, that is. Yeah. I don't know where this falls
into it. So maybe so if you're I guess you're
listening in an order you will find out later the
longer version of this. We're going to dial it down
right now because we wanted thirty minutes. And the shorthand
version of this is and this is me philibus swing
because I forgot where I was, oh coaching.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Coaching, and you're just taking a step back, step back.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yeah, So we took even for my son too, because
he was getting into Now He's like, I feel like
first grade becomes like real deal. The kindergarten was kind
of like, ah, this is whatever. First grade you start
really starting implementing them as kids, and they have to
they have like real homework, and they're learning more and
they're really getting set up for the next grade in
the next grade. So I was like, let him focus
on first grade. He's also going to a new school,
so let's like I'm focused on that. I'll focus on

(05:02):
me in this job. My wife's working full time and
you know all that. So I was like, we all
need a break and not needing an extra thing on
a weekend. We need a weekend where we can just
chill and enjoy each other and also recover and recover exactly. Yeah,
So then we'll look at doing I think it's basketball
or baseball in the fall, one of the two. I forget,
okay and TVD NFL coach, because it'll really depend on

(05:22):
what's up happening now with work and everything, and if
I will have the capacity later may Orma.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
You know, it's also okay just for you to show up,
I know, as a dad and a parent and support
him in that way too.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I know I may have to let go and let
that be a thing.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, who because who says you can't do it later exactly?

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yeah? Is that you're totally right. I just had this
like envision in my head of like a Disney movie
where like Dad becomes coach. Wasn't expected. He always thought
he was going to be a multimedia Instead, he's his
son's coach. Didn't parent parent, and then I go from
being his little league coach or his basketball coach in
elementary school, to his middle school, to his high school
to college and then the NPA. Good story.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
That is a great Disney movie.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Yes, yeah, but you also have to recognize that he
just wants you there at the end of the day,
and he's going to remember, rather you're the coach or
you're in the stands, that you're there, especially that you're
present in the rest of his life too, not even
just at those games. You're present in the rest of
his life. And if you are overwhelming yourself by also

(06:23):
being a coach on top of everything else that's going on,
you can't do that.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
I know, I can always be assistant coach too and
be like, hey, let the coach and I'm like, yeah,
man or one, because like, if you're playing baseball, you
need at least three or four people out there go hey, look,
can't do head coach anymore. Used to do that. But
if you need any assistance or help more than happy day.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
See and then you can step in where you can
and you're not overwhelmed and there.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
And the problem is that I have a problem being
like that. I'm the coach.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Now, It's cool, this is where you are in control.
I know, but that's okay. What about the girls? Are
they playing anything yet? I know the youngest isn't.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
That's really nothing yet. She would do anything. But the
middle child she's turning four in December, so we were
thinking about putting her in some sort because she like,
she's pretty good at soccer, either soccer or gymnastics and
doing one of those two. But I wouldn't be the
coach for that. I would just let.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
You can't coach gymnastics.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Okay, No, I have no experience with this, so there'd
be no point.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
And you should totally get her into that because she
could be a gold medalist one day.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
She could be yeah, we're watching the Olympics and like,
oh yeah, they could be my daughter. That's amazing. Yeah,
that's so cool.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Yeah, that was.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
That was my sister and I when we speaking of like,
I want to know what sports all you played? My
Like my sister and I, we had a phase of gymnastics,
We had a phase of cheerleading, of dance. In middle school,
I was on a competitive softball team. I played volleyball,
I was and basketball super like in gosh, yeah, I
loved sports, and there was a period of time where,

(07:45):
like my sister, though more than I was, I didn't
get as much into the gymnastics side.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
I just really loved tumbling.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah, but Taylor loved gymnastics and she went to a
camp with Bella Coroli.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Okay, yeah, like.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Super famous name.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
I think he kind of got in some trouble whatever,
but she went to that camp and so like she
was like going to do all the Olympic gold training
and everything.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
The trials and the World Cup champ what do they
call the World champions or whatever?

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Yeah, however that works. But she never quite went into
that way. But yeah, we did all the sports like
growing up and just over the course.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
Of she could be a coach for gymnastics.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Oh yeah, I could be a coach.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
For tumbling, tumbling or softball.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Oh for sure softball.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, if you had kids, had a dollar, I'll be
your softball coach. I could see that. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
And like my older sister, my niece is playing volleyball
and she's their volleyball coach. Because my oldest sister was
my sisters and I volleyball coach coach.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Did you guys listen to her? Like, shut up?

Speaker 2 (08:36):
We did?

Speaker 3 (08:37):
She was still good. My oldest sister played college volleyball.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
So she was really oh day okay, so she legit played.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
Yeah, And like when we were super young, I was
a baby and I'd be we'd be rolling around in
our van all over this the country going do all
her volleyball tournaments and stuff. So I grew up playing
like volleyball, just in the courts, a lot of sports.
So that was our whole sports background. It was our
whole lives for most And then I got to high
school and.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
I quit everything and became a cheerleader.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Yeah, and then I could keep tumbling, so I still
did both of those, and then by college done all
of that.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Done, just tumbling. I'm sorry, I just visioned you just
like rolling around on the ground all over the place,
you know, doing summersaults everywhere.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Not a fad vision exactly. That is the start.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
I wish I could take what's in my head and
put it on.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
A screen picture like a tumble week.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
That's literally like me amaging. Your parents were like, we're
gonna have fun tumbling like you just like somersault off.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
Like an acrobat or.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Something, and like a tumble wee too. Yeah, just like
we're rolling over the place, like there goes Morgan, just
rolling all over the place by the end of it
one day, just rolling.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
Yeah, no, no, no, tumbling.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
You're watching the Olympics. There are four routines, okay, oh
tumbling when I they're.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
Doing all the flips, not the full floor routine is
totally different, having the dance moves and everything combined, but
where they're doing the flips and they're running and going
into something that's tumbling.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
Okay. There was a girl in our elementary school growing
up who was and I wish I remember her name.
I have to go through my eyearbook and find her
because she had to be in the Olympics or someone
like your sister who went pretty far, because she was
unbelievable out in the middle. Remember when I have recess.
She would own that whole field, and all of a
sudden she would just start practicing and she would do
that thing where she'd run and she would like do
the handstand and do like floor cant spring and like rolling.

(10:32):
I'm just like, whoa, my god, this girls on And
she was far like fourth grade, yeah doing that crap mon.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Oh, trust me when you're when you're younger too, you
can do so many more things if you true.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
That makes sense.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
What happens with gymnastis is you have to have no fear.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Yes, and you have no fear as a child. You
don't care about following and whatever you like, Well, just
get back up and do it again.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
It is for the most part. There is a fear though,
because you're going backwards a.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Lot of the time. But like, that's what I realized
as I.

Speaker 3 (10:54):
Got an adult and did adult gymnastics, Like, oh, I
have lots of fears.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Hurt myself.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah, I know what could happen to this body and
I don't like it.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Yeah, consequences, I've seen these things happen. No thanks, but
it's okay. You don't give a crap, Just roll all
over that field. I'm like, dang, okay, this is so
that's what you did.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
That's pretty sick tumbling. Yeah, wow, okay, I loved it.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
I got I mean, in my adult life, I got
a layout which was really cool, which is a flip
backwards and your whole body is straight.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
And that's really cool.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Yeah, so that was cool. What about you sports? Growing up? Everything?

Speaker 3 (11:20):
What'd you do?

Speaker 1 (11:21):
So? For me? I loved basketball. I played a lot,
mostly at home, and then I did play I did
also play in leagues. I played like the Junior Magic League.
Our our team was really good. We ended up being
like I think state or something or regionals because we
had got to play at the Orlando Magic Arena where
the Magic played the NBA team. So I remember going
to the we had tickets to the game that night,

(11:41):
and then earlier that day we played on the court.
It was like a really cool it was like a
huge experience, like playing on the NBA court and doing
a tournament. So we did basketball, and I did baseball
for a couple of seasons, and then I ended up
being at my brother I think I told the story
once before at my brother's a baseball game and I
wasn't playing at the time. I was like one of
those like, I don't know, I want to play anymore.
I think I was like eleven, maybe ten or eleven maybe,

(12:02):
but no, I was like nine, I think nine or ten.
And they had this tower in the middle where they
sold snacks at the bottom, but there was a door
on the backside that one day was popped open and
I was just cured again, no consequences. I'm just like, well,
what's this door go to. There's got to be something
up there because it looks like an air traffic controller
where it's got windows and they're facing each field. There's
four fields, seem like a traditional one, two three, four ones,
like a softball older kids, middle kids, t ball, whatever.

(12:25):
So I walked up the stairs and there was no
one up there, and I was like, oh, these are
the booths and I was like, oh wow, scoreboard control.
And I was like oh, and I like this, like
you know, hey, you touch something and it works, You're
like and then you just do keep doing more and
more and more next thing you And I'm like f
and I'm just I'm here. I don't give a crap.
So I sat there watched my brother's game. I just
started keeping score and then I was like catching. I
was doing the balls and the strikes and keeping like

(12:46):
when everything the full score, and someone was like, oh,
someone's keeping score. And then I walked down afterwards and
it was like a thing that no one knew what
was going on, but I would just keep score. And
then the second time I went up there, I noticed
there was a microphone and I was like, oh, there's
a microphone here. I was like, this is pretty cool.
And so then I started announcing the game and I
would be like ball or strike or whatever, and people
started like cheering and they like it became a thing
like that field that I would that I would announce

(13:08):
for and keep the score was so much louder than
the other fields that were going on. And then everyone
was like, what the hell is going on? And some
guy I could feel the energy of someone walking by,
like no one wanted to stop it because it wasn't
like I was up there to being.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Like you, you weren't doing anything bad. You were actually helping.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Oh yeah, I wasn't like cursing or being like a
typical like stupid kid. I was actually, yeah, I was
assisting in the game and made it more fun, and
so I think they were just kind of I never
no one ever stopped me or talked to me or
confronted me or said anything to me. I just did it,
and then I kept doing it, kept doing it, and
kept doing it, and then it was a thing where
I just would announce my brother's games.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
And be like, you know, you never once got stopped.
There was never anybody that came and talked to you.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
No one came and talked to me. Afterwards when I
would leave, some of the parents were like, hey, was
that you up there doing that? And I was like,
oh yeah, yeah, like that's amazing. She keep doing that.
So it was just more like encouragement. And no one
that worked at the building like went up there. Maybe
they just thought I was supposed to be.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
There the reason, like independently run and somebody just owned it.
And there wasn't anybody hired to do anything like.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
That, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
I didn't really have anything that really care to be like, hey, kid,
get out of there. Yeah, And I wasn't causing a ruckus.
If anything, it was it was creating for a better
experience for the for the parents and for the players.
So they're like, well, this is amazing.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Did you want to be a sports announcer after that?

Speaker 3 (14:19):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah, Like this is like all I wanted to do,
and I still would love to at one point one day,
like do the instadium announcements.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
Like that for which sports baseball.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Baseball will be cool because that's that's where where I
came from. But I also I have a love for
the NBA and the NBA because I feel like the
NBA is super fun because it's like the lights go down,
but usually like music playing and the players are coming
out and there's a smoke and fog machine. I feel
like that will be the ultimate baseball will be pretty cool.
But I played basketball, Like if I could be the
official voice for whenever that guy decides to retire or

(14:51):
move on, they're Orlando Magic, I want that. That'd be
so cool. I mean, obviously it's not a job where
I could do full time because it doesn't I don't
think it pays like a full time gig.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
Yeah, it's kind of like Wayne d Yes, he does
the Predators. I don't know if that's a.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
Voicing he might, Yeah, I don't. I don't want to
do that. That's that's uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
You want to be the announcer.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
I don't be the guy run around the staates, go
we're giving away this. If it takes a different, thick
skin person to do that, that's not me. I want
to be the one where you don't see me and
I'm like up in the booth and no one knows exactly. Yes, Yes,
I'd love to do that. That'd be so much fun.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
That's okay, we're gonna put that in the universe.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Shooting too.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
We're gonna take a quick break and won't be right back.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Okay, cool.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
Speaking of basketball, Yeah, this is obviously where some of
that connection love comes from.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
With your shoe collection.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
Oh yeah, I had Rick asked the question that was
for listener Q and A, but we.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
We didn't quite get to it.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Is Rick.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
His name's Rick.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
Yeah, does he Do you have any new additions to
your shoe collection?

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Trying to think I do not, because my wife has
been on me lately about saving my money not buying shoes.
So I'm trying to think of anything I bought recently
in the answer. And I'm not just saying it's because
if she happened to hear this new money honestly haven't
because she put she's no. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for fumbling, Rick,

(16:13):
but I'm trying to think I have Oh it's OK.
I want to give you not an answer.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Yeah, a human you're not a robot?

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Yeah, exactly, I'm definitely not. I would say no. I
haven't bought it in a while, and I can't even
think of what the last ones are. Maybe the ones
I'm wear right now are the last ones. They're they're
Nike either Kevin Durantz, but they're the fiftieth anniversary of
hip hop for I think it was August twenty twenty three, twenty.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
Twenty three, black and white, kind of look like space shoes.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
Yeah, fifty years of hip hop. Theyre Kevin Durantz and
on the side they have little charm's of microphone and
has like the number seven and has easy on the
back of I think for easy E and passed.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Your shoe obsession to any of your kids.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yet my son he has a couple of cool shoes.
I don't think he really think he likes them. I
don't think he cares as much as I care, obviously,
but I think he's like, oh, these are awesome and
he likes them, like he has a favorite shoes that
he wears or loves to put on, so he likes him,
but not like my level of obsession, And mine was
deep rooted in the sense of like when I was
at as a kid, I would see kids have all

(17:06):
these awesome like dependnies and the Jordan's and I had
the crappy paylass or or just some like really very
basic rack room shoes nikes. Yeah, like not the cool one.
So it was more of like a man and envy
and or riding my bike down the street to Jembo
Sports which is like a sports authority, which is like
a dis depending on what era of world you live in,
and seeing the shoes in the wall and be like, man,

(17:26):
I would love to be able to get these pennies
one day. You need to help anything, sir, No, I'm
good man, I'm just looking. But if you need sizes
a cool yeah, I have like a dollar in my pocket.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
Did you ever watch the movie Free Guy with Ryan Roolds?

Speaker 1 (17:39):
Yes, I know, maybe I have. I don't know. It's
like video game.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
One, kind of video game esque.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Yeah, I think I happen. I don't remember it.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
But I think he takes a nod to the shoe obsession,
because there's a point in that movie where he's like
standing there just like fawning over a pair of shoes,
but he's like checks his baker. He's like, oh, man, yeah,
you don't have the money, Like so I really think
you just described as a pop culture moment for a
lot of people.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
Oh yeah, and you're just like, oh no, no, I'm good,
thank you so much. And then one day I had
I was balls enough to be like, yeah, I'll take
a size uh or whatever size I was, and I
tried them. I was like, oh cool, cool, he's like
you like those. It's like, yeah, they kind of hurt
my toe a little bit, even though they were awesome
and they didn't and even if they did, I was
still get them.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
You're just trying to find a reason.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yeah I can't get him. He's all right, man, are
well if let me have you anything else? Yeah, I'm good,
thank you so much. And I would just walk up.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
Did you just like to sit in there with him
on for as long as you possibly could?

Speaker 1 (18:28):
Yeah, with my sweaty, smelly even let me do it.
But looking back, is probably some stupid eighteen year old
kid that didn't give a crap. He's like, whatever, dude,
just let him try him on. Who cares comes here
all the time and he never buys anything.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
Well because back then too, they probably weren't on commission
and they were probably just paid hours.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yeah like whatever, dude, and he's probably he probably sees
himself in me and he's like, oh, that was me
a couple of years ago. Yeah. So uh so, No,
I think the thing is the most recent ones. My
wife now was like, the best shoes come out around
the holiday, so just wait till then.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
So I probably find always deals tippy.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
True, Yeah, there is, but I like the ones that
don't have deals, the ones that come out new, so
you like.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
The limited edition stuff and those never have deals.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
Exactly, and they come out and you either get them
or you don't get them, so and if you don't
get them then they if you want to get them later,
they cost more.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Do you ever do any of the shoe giveaway things?
I see dudes online always posting on their instagrams or really, dang,
I didn't.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
I didn't make it, Yeah, because.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
They have an don't even know whats So there's a Nike,
so Nike has a Nike app. But then they have
this other app where it's called Sneakers s nk rs
and this is more for like their Jordan's and their
Pennies and like more like exclusive type shoes or shoes
that I guess would be more than just a standard Nike.

Speaker 2 (19:37):
That it's a whole app about shoes, a whole app.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
So you can go to say you're like, oh, this one,
So you can click on it and you can see, okay,
the release date for this one is coming up, and
it is there's a bunch of them that are being
released today's drop. So there's a bunch of today's drops,
and if you want to be notified, you can notify
me and you'll get a notification at nine am that
these are available. And then once you it pops up
and you can have your credit card information is already
in there, and you like, they already have my size, okay,

(19:59):
size thirteen men's, here's my address, everything, and then you
click it and then in a fifteen minute window, so
from nine to nine to fifteen you have to enter.
And they say, but I feel like it's so unfair.
I see online everyone's selling multiples of them, So how
do they get multiples, they're like, oh, we controlled it.
Nobots are in here, which means people would create these
programs that are like putting in all these entries foods exactly.

(20:21):
So they put in one hundred entries. Of course they're
going to hit on one of them. But I can only
put in one entry because I'm one person with one
credit card and one holm address and one size shoes.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
So I'm not because they're only making a certain amount
of those shoes. Is that what it is.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Allegedly, yeah, allegedly a certain amount, or they try to
create like curb the market to create a demand of
some sort.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
Dang, I mean, they really got all y'all shoe addicts
like I launch with an app.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
And a way to get in and get in limited edition.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
And it's ridiculous because every day, so I would say,
of ten that I'll put in, I make it one,
sometimes none, zero of ten. Whereas back in the day,
if you want a pair of shoes, you'd walk to
the store or drive to the store, or go to
the store. But y'all take those pennies inside thirteen you go, oh,
they'd have them, and if you there the week and
of they definitely had them, and if you went there
a week later, they may still have them. If you
went there two weeks later, they may have a size
twelve and a half, but you could make that one

(21:06):
work and then or they may have them on sale
six months later and they have your size again. It's
like it was much more readily available, and it wasn't.
It was a thing, but it wasn't, and it was
the way it should be. It should just be items
that you can just go buy. Why, you know, I
don't mean, I don't mean to be exclusive. I don't
need they're basically catering to a market for resale, but
they say they're not, but yeah, they yet they are
catering to a resale market because they just made enough

(21:27):
for everyone and put them in the stores. Then everyone
could buy them and it wouldn't matter. But they say
they're not catering to but as bull crap, because they are.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
Yeah, or just like two pairs of each shoe in
every short store and you have to go to the
store to get them.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
Yeah, that's still limited edition, yes, because then it would
get people in the stores.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Yes, Well, they were doing that way back before the apps,
like like in their early twenty ten's, you'd have to
go to a foot locker or like at seven in
the morning. Some people would sleep overnight and then when
they opened up, they walk out there and give it
people wrist bands, like all right, you've got a risk band,
you're online, you're you're guaranteed to get your size or whatever.
Just wait in line, You're good. And some people would
like pay people to wait in line for them. It
became another business on top of a business like want

(22:03):
line waiters or people who would go in line for
somebody and buy it for them and then ship it
to them and sell it. It was. It became just
too much.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Dang, you know, I'm sad that people will never get
to experience like the Black Friday days.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
You stay outside of a place for hours waiting to
get in and get the deal excitement. It was so
much fun. I mean, yeah, it was crazy. We were wild,
Like it was after Thanksgiving.

Speaker 3 (22:26):
We would be sitting that foia about a stupid place
and we didn't even really have a good reason.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
To be yet, but it was so much fun. Like
that was a community experience with everybody else.

Speaker 1 (22:36):
It was an anticipation in right, a community experience, whereas
now it's like, oh, okay, I'm in. I didn't get
it all right anyway.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
So yeah, or you go on Amazon Prime and you
can get it on their Amazon Prime deal.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah, immediately, exactly the good old days.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Yes, I know, don't.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
That's not really old.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
Okay, Yeah, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll
be right back, all right, Ryan asked, he posed this question.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
I think he's trying to mess with us.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
He said, why do we drive on parkways and park
on driveways?

Speaker 1 (23:08):
Why do we drive on parkways and park on driveways.
It's a great point because yeah, but you still do
drive on a driveway, you just park on it.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
But I think it's interesting this question. Not so much
I don't have an answer.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Yeah, yeah, because there is I don't know if there
is an answer, No, but.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
More that like words and how they get created and
who came up with every single word in the English
language because there's so many.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
There are, and then even some of the spelling of them,
where you're like, why would you make the ght like
the gh silent? Because like when you look at it,
you're like, especially I've always heard from people coming from
a different country they're like the English language is the
most difficult because of there's so many words, and because
there's so many silent letters and the way we put
our words together. It's like like like nat, It's like
you would think, nah, okay, probably it's just nat. No,

(23:53):
it's g nat. Why would it just be nat? Why
is it gotta be g nat? Like are you kidding me? Yep?

Speaker 3 (23:59):
And I was talking to this guy who's from London.
He worked for a Wild Turkey and he had just
moved to New York and he was like, there's so
many things that I say and nobody can pick up
on them.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
And he would say the words. I'm like, what does
that mean?

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Just like is this slang is different?

Speaker 2 (24:14):
Well, they just have different words for certain things.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
True. Yeah, And they even spell our words like different,
Like even like favorite if you're looking at like a
daily mail article or the favorite.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Favorite it's always with you, Yeah, anything with an O
in it, like where it'd be like a normal be
oh you.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Instead and here's different.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Yeah, it's just word words are whild.

Speaker 3 (24:31):
Then if you think about a word long enough, you're like,
I'm spelling it wrong, yeah, Or if you you say
it too many times, you're like that doesn't sound right.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
Yes, our language is just so interesting to me.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Like definitely when you spend you spelled definitely, Like am
I spelling definitely or defiantly or where I don't even
know what it's going around. Now I know it is
like it's spelled different. I'm pretty confident in that, like,
but the other one, so sometimes I just I'm not sure.
So I'll just put diff d I F F and
like you know, I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
Words to create it because everybody's like, I don't know anymore.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
Just use this. It's awful. It's really awful.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
So that was my thought with that that came with
that question.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
But we're going to end on this one, Okay, I'm
going down a list of drinks, favorite beer, favorite, I
p a favorite shot, favorite mixed drink, and then ending
on so in case any parents would like to leave
the conversation now, I hope you have a wonderful day.
Thank you for listening, favorite your cue, favorite drink. Well,

(25:24):
the last version is favorite drug. This one came from
a listener.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
We're talking about.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Press or any parents can get all the conversations.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
We're not talking about the medicine you take at night
when you have a stiffly sniffley.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
No oh, yeah, I know that that cop medicine.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
What's your favorite cop medicine?

Speaker 2 (25:44):
Okay, start a favorite beer.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
I don't like beer.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
Okay, no beer, and no I p A.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Then no, definitely no I p A.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Okay, I can answer this one. I have.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
I love sour, sour drinks, Okay, sour beers amazing. If
I go to a brewery, I'm looking at sour beer,
maybe a blonde drink.

Speaker 2 (25:59):
If I'm going a light beer. I'm not really a I.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
P A or dark beer drinker, but I love a
sour Okay.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
And I guess if I were to like a beer,
I don't. I don't know, because my whole thing was
whenever I have a beer, it makes me super full. Yeah,
and then it makes me bloated and I'm burping a lot,
and then I have this weird headache and then I'm
like that feeling always like everything feels so heavy. It's
like so annoying that this is Even when I was
like in my early twenties, I had the same feeling, like.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
That beer doesn't make you any alcohol. Let's be honest,
doesn't make.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
Any alcohol, but at least beer is like, it's like,
I'm not knocking beer because I know it, because it
does taste good, because I because I will sip a beer.
I'm like, man, this tastes really good. So I could
sip on a beer and like maybe drink a quarter
of it, But if I drink any more than a half,
and I'm gonna start feeling like.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
You a thor in Adventures in the game right now?

Speaker 3 (26:52):
Okay, So if you had to sip a quarter of
a beer, what is that beer?

Speaker 1 (26:57):
This is where you could easily be judge. You don't well,
you lock butt.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Hey, I'm a good judge. So hard for serbs. You
know how many people like Sauerberry's not a.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Lot I remember from the last beers that I had.
I remember on tap course, not course. Michelob Ultra on
tap was really delicious, like drinking like a couple of
SIPs of mielup Ultra on tap like ice cold michelob
Ultra nice freaking good. And then if I had to
go for like a more like obscure beer, and I
don't think they make him anymore. But in San Francisco
it was based, it was it was made in the city.

(27:30):
If it's still around and you are in the area,
or if you're looking to go there. Anchor Steam Brewery,
Anchor Steam Beer. Anchor Steam Beer is so freaking now
i'm thinking about it, Anchor Steam Beer is phenomenal. It
is the best beer I've ever had. And if you
hadn't had it, I don't know if it's still mad
because I feel like I heard a new story they
were closing down or something. Maybe it was due to

(27:50):
the pandemic. They shut their operations down, but I'm sure
it'll come back at some point. Anchor San Francis, San Francisco.
It's a brewery. It's called Anchor Steam and that's the.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
An Anchor Brewing Company.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
That's the that's the company, and Anchor Steam is the beer.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
Yeah, they're still okay cool.

Speaker 1 (28:04):
So Anchor Steam, I know. I said a million times
Anchor Steam. You got to try that. It's so freakin delicious,
especially on tab.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
Oh No, I take that back. Online it said they
were open.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
No, they're not.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
But then I went to their their website and it
said Anchor Brewing Company has closed after one hundred and
twenty seven years in business. Thank you to our fans
and our community.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
Cheers. We raise an anchor Steam to you has.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Been around forever. If I had the capital, I would
love to revamp that and bring it back because it
was such good beer.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
Hm.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
That's what happened here. I went to Nelson's Green Brier
and did a tour when I had some friends in town.
We went there, and that was that was their whole deal.
I don't know if you've tried that. They have a
tour there somewhere. That's another cool thing if you come here.
Nelson's Green Bar Brewery. They have really good like it's
like whiskey based drinks. But their whole story is they
were around from like way back in the day. They
even made it through prohibition, and I think somewhere along
the way they stopped and then the family went to

(28:59):
a different business and then they brought it back like
in two thousand and eight. But so this could be
brought back. Yeah, it's my point.

Speaker 3 (29:04):
Okay, Well you can't find this one, but maybe you
can find a way to make it.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yeah, what's your favorite shot?

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Favorite shot? I don't like to do shots, so I
don't have one.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
Okay, Well mine has a funky name, so I'm not
gonna say it.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Okay, what is it.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
I'm just not gonna.

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Say, okay, but it was a really good shot that was.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
Mixed with like this raspberry cream and no, no, not repplements. Okay, no, gosh,
that was my favorite shot. I'd be a psychopath.

Speaker 1 (29:29):
Yeah, you are a psychopath if you like that.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
No, this has a different name. But it was a
good little mix. It was from in Manhattan. There was
a shot shot bar there that had it. Okay, favorite
mixed drink.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
Mixed drink, I would say, I guess would you call
it old fashion a mixed drink?

Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, you could put that in the cocktail list, like
cold fashions.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
I've liked that. That was That's one of the things
I learned early on experiment with alcohol. And I knew
by like twenty two, like, okay, I don't like vodka,
I don't like rum, I don't like tequila, I don't
like gin. I only seem like the whiskeys and the
bourbons and the rise. And then I think it was
like early on, I think my I was maybe twenty five.
I moved to San Francisco and I have my first
old fashioned I was like, oh, this is it. So
that was my thing. So I stuck with that I've

(30:07):
been drinking them for. I don't know how long I've
been drinking those, but that is mix is the best
with my body. I can have two to three and
I'm just fine.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
Nice. That's a good one. You know what I've been
on a kick of lately. Wow, Cosmopolitans.
