(00:00):
This is over Fink pop cof theEating over the Sink Podcast. Thank you

the Sink? Yeah, that soundsright, that sounds right, mister social

(00:22):
Media. And I'm joined by mybest friends, JP de Britt, per
Sword of course, the Pride ofGrove Port Madison High School officer Andy Stults,
mister mister social Media, and anotherspecial guest. She's wicked smart.
She's the cutest thing you'll see allday every day. She's my wife.
He must be in the house.I actually don't think I am. I

(00:45):
think I'm good. I think I'mI'm good right now? Yeah, yeah,
there's no dodge. I'm sure youguys years twenty years? How's that
twenty years going? How lucky?Am I really very lucky? And then
you're supposed to say, oh Iam too. Yeah, absolutely, we

(01:08):
all know the price of things havegone through the roof. But you know,
we were just on vacation for ouranniversary. And when you go to
you know, the swim up poolbar, and then you just sign it
to the room, right, andthen when you get the itemized list and
you see you know, seventeen coreslights at you know, nine to ninety
five each. You know, it'slike how thirsty are you? You know,

(01:32):
how much are you willing? Somy question is, I guess certain
items, like say a beer yougo to you go to a you go
to a game, you go tothe ballpark, you go to football game,
you're going to pay ten, eleven, twelve bucks a beer. Oh
yeah, and we're glad to doit, right Yeah? Yeah, So
I guess what's your cutoff for Let'sstart with a beer like at a at
a ballpark or a game or aconcert or on vacation. See, I

(01:56):
would look at it a little bitdifferently, like I it's not a price
thing, it's the number of them, so quantity. Yeah. So if
it's like twenty five bucks for aMiller Lite, like the big ones at
the hockey games are like eighteen bucks, right, Like I would probably be
a buy one or two, butonce I get past two, I'm like,
I'm not gonna buy any more.That's why you got a pre game,
yeah, totally pregame and then yougo in you had one or two?

(02:19):
Yeah yeah, but I mean soyou didn't do that, and it's
like you really want a beer.You had a baseball game, you got
a bag of peanuts and a hotdog with mustard only, and you have
crazy and you go get a beerand it's they're like, it's you know,
seventeen dollars. Are you gonna go? No, I don't need that
beer. You probably felt good whenyou look to that that itemized bill because
Aaron's cocktail was probably like fifty bucks. Well, actually, gp you're wrong.

(02:42):
He doesn't see the bill, whichis why he orders twenty meals.
He doesn't get the bill and hedoesn't look at the price on anything,
so he just orders whatever. Vacationbeer can be expensive. We don't care,
as guys, we're gonna drink them. If they're twenty dollars a beer,
we're gonna drink absolutely. Absolutely.Kind of like play money when you're

(03:04):
on vacation is the mentality that myhousehold has even when you're not on vacation.
Well, yeah, that's the thing. Anytime you're outside your house,
it's play money. So now letme just tell you this. Our last
day checking out, right, we'recleaning up the room and packing up.
I open our fridge and there's likeall the beverages that she drinks were still
in the fridge, and we lefthim for that. We left him for

(03:27):
housekeeping with it. But I didn'torder drinks to the pool bar. I
just didn't finish what I purchased yours. All the beers you paid for were
gone consumed. Then there's like sixseltzers a couple of sodas. It's okay.
So that's session, that's vacation money. It's okay. So what would
you what would you pay for apork chop dinner on vacation, Mike?

(03:50):
A pork chop dinner? Yeah,real nice dinner, a nice like rice
pew off and like rice whatever thatis. You know what rice pee off
is? It sounds like some kindof rice dah. You know what?
Right? I don't know what thatis? Is that a vegetable? Yeah?
I don't want to have thirty bucks. You're fine with that. Thirty

(04:13):
thirty five bucks, depending on thebooks. Generally you can get next for
large pizza. I'll meat pizza forthat. That's what I would have went
for. But you don't get therice peel off. Well, yeah,
I have to reconsider because I don'tget the rice pia. So would you
pay more? For like, okay, so let's switch it from from like
beer, like what about coffee?You're not a big coffee drinker? Staltzy,
Yeah, a couple, but somepeople a coffee is like I gotta

(04:34):
have my nine dollars Starbucks with sevenpumps of whatever in it? Would you
would you pay ten bucks for acup of coffee? See that's where I
dropped, like I wouldn't for me, but I do it for my door
all the time, which is likethe biggest f and word on the planet.
I feel bad for the barista personStarbucks with my doora shows up.

(05:00):
I swear to God, I'm standingthere behind like trying with my app and
it takes a fifteen There's four hundredingredients in my daughter's Starbucks. How the
Starbucks like this little lady whatever peckingthe screen trya it's as China. I

(05:20):
don't know how she follows it.What's your coffee? Older, non fat
half calf latte with one pump Aclassic? It's not that complicated pump of
classic. Yeah, I only likeone pump is sweetener because I don't want
it too sweet, So they callsweetener classic. Well that's the one I
like. It's just like sugarcane kindof. But you could say, like

(05:42):
one pump of caramel coffee in it. It's a lot, it's oh,
it's half. Yeah. I wantto get a Starbucks because I want to
say one pump the coffee of whatever. I just want to say the one.
Do you use the terms properly,like these the sizes like what I
do? But I think I orderit in the wrong order because I would

(06:03):
say a tall half calf non fatlatte with one pump a classic, and
then when they read it back tome, they say a tall half calf
non fat, Like I think Ido it in the wrong order. You
guys, your heads are all spinning. How long would you sit in a

(06:24):
drive series line at Starbucks to geta coffee? Not long? I'm not
a four. I will not know. There's a Starbucks at the end of
our street that always has at leastsix or seven cars and driveway like to
the point that it's blocking the intersection. But I don't need not How much
is that what you just said?It's like six dollars, So I don't

(06:46):
do it. I don't stop alot. I would much rather stop for
a coffee. I'm drinking right nowis probably thirty nine cents home brewed black
coffee out of a tub. Yeah, that's what I did. Did you

(07:28):
like like a fancy burger. Imean, what's fancy I'm gonna eat in
fancy like? How like what itlooks fancy? Well like lacking beef like
yeah, like a upper leveled upingredients. I mean I'm not really worried
about that. Well it's going tobe if it's twenty five dollars. I

of Nails last night. The burgerswere in the twenties, were they really?

(07:50):
Yeah? I went with uh whatI go last night? Fish sandw
Fish ruben. Oh, that's whatI went with last night. What tots
and cheese on my tots. That'swhat I went with last That's what happened
when he didn't shower. It's apersonal hygiene process that we all have to

(08:11):
go through, and that's cutting ournails right once a week, ten days,
whatever it is. Cutting your fingernailspretty easy. I struggle with cutting
my toenails, just getting just ingeneral. Well that's it is, like,
yeah, yeah, well I'm fairlyflexible. It's just I'm not a
small guy. I'm not six seven, I'm over six foot. Just reaching

(08:33):
put your foot on the countertop,do you bend over? Do you sit
down and bring up your foot?Then the pinkies at the bottom and you
can't see it. Over the lasttwenty years with my lovely wife, I've
asked her to help me cut mytoenails. Hey, can you just like
and she will? She won't doit. She won't do it. I
will not do it. You won'thelp. No, I don't cut my

(08:54):
own toenails. I'm not going tocut his toenails. The lady at the
nails on the don't do it,so she would rather me, you know
how, frugal she is. Shewould rather me go spend money to have
somebody cut my toenails and cut themfor me. You get a pedicule.
I have never gotten years. I'mnot against it never. It's something free

(09:20):
that I could have happened at homethat I don't need to go out for.
Do your wives cut your toenails?No, I've really got really ugly
feet. I so when do youcut your toenails? I cut my toenails
after I shower, so they're soft. Correct, But do you use clippers
or scissors? Wait a minute,you have a routine for cutting the toenails?

(09:41):
Yeah, like like when they getlike because when you're in the shower,
you know, the heat in thewater softens and you so you're thinking
that in your head. Yeah,well I looked down, get those talents
cleaned up a little bit, youknow, and then I I to answer
your question, Mike. I putmy foot up on our bathtub and I

(10:05):
kind of bend over and I tryto get most of them, but some
of it's like you walk in therewhen I'm doing that. Yeah, you're
so, we don't have a tubthat I can put my foot up on.
You could go in the kids bathroom. I'm not going anywhere near that
flies a house. I'll put mineon the countertop, like where by the

(10:30):
same that. No way, Soyou cut your tonails over the sink,
just so seriously, like you putyour foot on your countertop and then do
it from there. Yeah, that'spretty impressive. It's not comfortable. I
don't enjoy it because I'd rather havemy wife do it. It's much more

(10:50):
economical, and I just don't thinkI would do a good job because I
am very particular about length of toenails, and you like them a touch longer
I do. I like to seeone little tiny speck of the white line
of any toenails. I think it'sdisgusting. I think when you cannot see

(11:11):
that little like I think a lotof people's toenails are too short for my
taste. So you've had like aninternal dialogue with yourself about and the fingernails
and fingernails. Yeah, I don'tlike super short fingernails. You have a
little bit of the white line.You probably like mine right now? Mine

(11:31):
are way too long for me.Need to be cut. Do you cut
or do you bite? Yeah?Cut, I don't cut. I cut
my ton't get down to the Buttom, just to be clear, I'll do
the kids. I will, She'llcut the kids. But I'm also trying

(11:52):
to teach. I'm trying to teachthe kids the appropriate length to say they're
too long. Mom. I knowour oldest son now does his own because
he wants them shorter, and they'reso short it's gross. I could cut
relationship. Just went to a differentlevel, knowing that you've had an internal
dollar conversation with yourself about everybody's sows. So that means when you when you

(12:13):
walk into us, she's looking atnails when she walks into it, like
just a store and you see peoplewith flip flops, do you kind of
look down? I'm like, ohgod, short, I just it hurts
me when I see like it's toowhere they too short? You know,
you can go too short and thenthat skin gets hard. There is too

(12:33):
short, and I don't I don'tlike that. I do not cut my
fingernails. I buy him. Doyou really yeah? Yeah, you bite
your fingernails. Yeah, just wouldn'tget atle bit too long? Do you
do those after a shower or two? Do you wait for your like I
like to buy and that's when I'mdriving, get a little conditioner. Desided
to chew on. You know youlike to chew on when you use in

(12:54):

something. I do think we allneed to go on Manny Petties as a

(14:03):

today. My toenails are cut tooshort. I gotta work. You gotta
leave a white line, real thin. Would there be an amount of money,
Aaron that would co esh you intocutting his feet? If someone said,
hey, he's a million dollars,no husband's feet, Well, you

I had one hundred dollars bill andyou said, I said, could you

be not yet aware of that we'vecovered in previous episodes with the other wives.

(15:58):
I lie regularly everybody to me,mainly to Mike. And here's the
scenario. Whenever I have to gostop at the store or stop anywhere,
I've got a list, I youknow, know what I'm doing, and
he'll throw in, hey, canyou grab X, y Z? Can
you grab some turkey? Can yougrab this? And I forget it.

(16:21):

forgot whatever he hasked. So Ijust say they were out of it.
And it's easy. I just saythey were out of it. They're out
of milk, they were out ofturkey, they were out of eggs of
milk. The last time I forgot
