Once again, the extraordinary executive producers Luke and Jorge bring us an episode which will go down in the annals of history! But will it be for the correct reasons? The name may seem misleading, but in fact in a reference to a sport which our hosts discuss (and which Jorge played). Many things are discussed, such as watermelons, ideal road trips, national parks, the state of Ohio, and how if you’re growing a beard, the people who mostly comment on it are men. Quite the smorgasbord of conversation! And of course, this is the first video episode, so go over to the boys’ Youtube channel to watch this episode, instead of just listening. Wonderful!

It can be comforting to know that there are experts out there solving the world’s largest problems and tackling society’s toughest questions. Those experts are not Luke and Jorge. Instead, here you’ll find two fast friends cracking jokes about life, love, and (insert another L-word here). With the help of occasional guests, we’ll tackle the most/real important questions like: “How many Canadian geese could you fight?” and “Would you rather be a crab-sized human or a human-sized crab?”. Most importantly, we’re just guys being dudes. This is Bad Jokes and Semi-Wise Cracks with Luke and Jorge.

We're not.
I'm in the place where I live, currently.

Jorge (00:59):
You are.
And I'm in the place whereI am staying currently.

Luke (01:04):
Wow.
It's like, it's like we're likeon the run, like we don't want
people to know where we are.
Like, I'm safe, I made it to thesafe house and that's where I am now.
But you can't know where it is orI'll have to kill you or something.

Jorge (01:16):
This is true.
I am on the run.
No, that's not, that's not true.
I am currently on a work trip

Luke (01:24):
Are

Jorge (01:24):
you are enjoying your work vacation.

Luke (01:28):
I am for however long is left.
I know how long he's left, butI don't want to say it out loud
because it will make me sad.

Jorge (01:37):
that you don't have to think about that.
You just have to think about howyou're not working right now.

Luke (01:41):
Right.
Yeah.
It's been great.
It's been, it's been wild, dude.
I had my first watermelonof the year today.
And it was so good.
Yeah.
I have, have you had anywatermelon yet this summer?

Jorge (01:56):
I have, but it wasn't, I have a feeling it wasn't the season's watermelon.

Luke (02:01):
Wait, what do you mean?
Was it like last season's what?
Oh, like last year.
And then they kept it in like a cryofreeze for, or however they do with fruit.
Okay, gotcha.

Jorge (02:10):
You had watermelon though.

Luke (02:12):
I did and it was so good and I went way overboard.
I ate probably like a third of thewatermelon, but then I was too full
for like a sec, but then you know howlike if you eat like, sorry, what?
Go ahead.

Jorge (02:23):
No.
Well, we're only running intothis issue because we're,
we're doing, over the internet.
No, you keep telling the story.

Luke (02:31):
So like I cut up the whole watermelon.
I ate a bunch of the watermelon,but then, you know, like if
you eat like a regular food.
And you eat, like, way toomuch of it, then you, like,
feel icky for, like, forever.
I only felt icky for,like, a little bit of time.
And then I just really had to peebecause it's just mostly water.
And then it was fine.
So life is sure beautiful and good.

Jorge (02:49):
I'm so happy for you.

Luke (02:51):
Thank you.
I'm thriving.

Jorge (02:53):
This is an ideal situation.

Luke (02:56):
It is.
Yeah.
No work.
Watermelon.
It's great.

Jorge (03:00):
I do have to ask how big the watermelon was.

Luke (03:02):
Like a regular sized, like, bigger than my head watermelon.

Jorge (03:07):
Okay.
Bigger than your head?

Luke (03:09):
I think so.
Are you saying that I have a big head?

Jorge (03:12):
No, I'm just, I, I'm saying actually you have a small head right now.

Luke (03:16):
oh, thank you.

Jorge (03:19):
So, for people that are listening to the podcast the way that
God intended You can't see us, butif you're one of those heathens on
YouTube, I, I shouldn't speak like this.
Yeah, yeah, there's a videoversion of this podcast that's
being recorded as we speak.
Who knows if it'll survivethe cutting room floor.

(03:40):
But my head fills my entire little, like,screen preview, and yours is very small.
And so people might get the wrongidea, right, that you have a...
A small head in comparison, ormaybe they just think that I'm the
size of like some sort of giant,

Luke (03:57):
maybe.

Jorge (03:57):
I I'm barely contained by the four walls of this computer screen.

Luke (04:04):
you're like a mime, like stuck in a, in a glass box.

Jorge (04:08):
I that's, you know, that's how I feel.

Luke (04:12):
Ah, man.

Jorge (04:13):
This is my prison.

Luke (04:15):
You're on a work trip though, is

Jorge (04:17):
on a work

Luke (04:18):
here.
How is it?

Jorge (04:21):
It's going well.
Thanks for asking.

Luke (04:25):
I'm

Jorge (04:25):
you have any other questions?

Luke (04:26):
Yes.
Is, are you having a good time?

Jorge (04:29):
Yes.

Luke (04:30):
Okay.
Next question.
Are you, are you being productive?

Jorge (04:34):
At the moment.
No,

Luke (04:36):
Well, like overall, like, like on average, if you average it out the
time that you're awake, is it mostlyproductive or mostly unproductive?

Jorge (04:48):
I would say it's mostly productive.
I would say right now.
Obviously, it's night timewhen we're recording this.
I am not being productive.
I am sitting in the roomwhere I am staying recording a
podcast, which is not for work.
But I think in general, my being hereis also at least somewhat productive.

(05:08):
Not maybe, maybe not necessarily morethan my like little home office setup,
but it is nice to be around my coworkers.
So in that regard,

Luke (05:18):
Very cool.
Next question.
Is the bed that you'resleeping in comfortable?

Jorge (05:24):
yeah, it's not too soft and not too firm, which is kind
of my preference for a bed.
It's, it's a twin, it's a twin XL,

Luke (05:35):
Okay.

Jorge (05:36):
so I feel like I can't turn it over.

Luke (05:40):
right.

Jorge (05:41):
But if I stay in one position, it's, it's, it's nice.

Luke (05:45):
Do you stay in one position naturally or do you have to like
really work to like hold still?

Jorge (05:51):
I feel like when my body knows that I can't move, it doesn't.

Luke (05:54):
Oh,

Jorge (05:55):
Actually, no, no, I'll take that, I'll take that back.
I think I don't move verymuch during the night.
I definitely, probably snore.

Luke (06:03):
Definitely.
Probably.

Jorge (06:05):
Definitely, you know, you

Luke (06:07):
I do.
You do.

Jorge (06:08):
But not like, but not like loud.

Luke (06:10):
Right.
Not like through the walls.

Jorge (06:13):
No, no.
If you're in the same room,you can hear me snoring.
I've, but I have been told thatit's like, it's comforting
more than like, bothering.

Luke (06:23):
well, that's nice to hear.

Jorge (06:25):
Would you disagree?

Luke (06:27):
I, I, so Two things are that it takes me a long time to fall asleep And
if there's like a noise happening, it'shard for me to fall asleep And so anytime
I'm sleeping in a room with other peopleThey usually fall asleep before I do and
then if they're snoring then it is likeway harder for me to go to sleep so even
Like a, a, a nice amount of snoring is,is for me, will probably keep me awake.

(06:52):
But,

Jorge (06:53):
For

Luke (06:53):
is, you know, it happens.

Jorge (06:56):
Gotcha, but yeah, yeah, you're not but you're yeah, okay.
Okay all that with with standing Ithink most people that aren't super
late sleepers Will be unbothered by me.

Luke (07:14):
That's good.

Jorge (07:15):
Not that I mean, I don't share a room with anyone ever except for

Luke (07:19):
Right.
Yeah.

Jorge (07:21):
I revealed so little about them

Luke (07:24):
I don't know if that is all the way true.
I feel like last episode wedid a name drop and everything.

Jorge (07:32):
we know that was only on the live stream

Luke (07:36):
Are you sure?
I feel like maybe, maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe I...

Jorge (07:41):
Did you I mean you it's I also haven't listened to the
last episode since we recorded it

Luke (07:46):
Oh,

Jorge (07:48):
You would know did I

Luke (07:50):
I believe you did.
Yes.

Jorge (07:53):
I did a name drop

Luke (07:54):
I think maybe

Jorge (07:56):
first name right?
Nah,

Luke (07:57):
no, not, not like a last name and address and all that kind of stuff.
That would be

Jorge (08:01):
Well, you know, but I didn't go as into detail as
I did during the live stream.

Luke (08:06):
That's true.
Yeah.

Jorge (08:08):
Yeah.

Luke (08:09):
So if you didn't watch the live stream, you'll never know.
So.

Jorge (08:13):
Well, but we're slowly building a lure.

Luke (08:16):
Yeah,

Jorge (08:18):
Yeah.
Also, was the livestream cannon, you know?

Luke (08:21):
right.
It's like the the, theStar Wars Christmas special

Jorge (08:25):
Yes, exactly.
Yeah.
We cooked hot pot.

Luke (08:30):
we

Jorge (08:30):
We've never mentioned hot pot on the podcast until now.

Luke (08:34):
hot pod.

Jorge (08:36):
Hot pod.
Listen to our hot pod

Luke (08:39):
Yeah.

Jorge (08:40):
and look.
Watch our hot bods.

Luke (08:44):
Hey, I, yep.
That was amazing.

Jorge (08:48):
Thank you.
I'll be here.
All episode,

Luke (08:52):
I hope so.
That would be pretty wild if you

Jorge (08:56):
if I disappeared,

Luke (08:57):
Was that the sound of you disappearing?

Jorge (09:00):
In, in theory, whoa,

Luke (09:03):
Where'd he go?
He's gone.

Jorge (09:05):
I'm back.

Luke (09:07):
Whoa, he's back.
Dang.
Life sure is crazy.

Jorge (09:11):
That sure is crazy.
Do you, so what's, I've explainedthat I am doing a thing.
What are you up to?
What are, what do you got going on?

Luke (09:23):
Well, so I'm in a, in an eight week long class for grad
school and this is week six and ithas the most assignments by a lot.
And so I've been doing a lot of homeworkthis week, but today I was going to
do like half of a thing except forthe thing that I was going to do.
It, like, is building off of a thingthat I did last week, and I haven't

(09:44):
gotten feedback on the thing that Idid last week, so, like, I don't want
to move forward with the other thing.
All this to say, I didn't do any homeworktoday, and instead, I just sat around
and watched YouTube and ate a lot ofwatermelon, and I made some Hamburger
Helper, and now I'm here talking to you!
So it's been very much...
Not a homework kind of a day, but

Jorge (10:03):
That sounds so great!

Luke (10:06):
yeah, honestly, it was pretty nice.
Now I'm not looking forward totomorrow and I'm going to have to do
like tomorrow's homework and today'shomework, but you know, that's, that's
how, that's how it be sometimes.

Jorge (10:17):
You know, sometimes you need to be unproductive in order to be productive.

Luke (10:22):
Right?
Yeah.

Jorge (10:23):
Yeah.

Luke (10:25):
I did renew my car registration.
Dude, we're so boring, or atleast I am, but I did do that.

Jorge (10:31):
I had a, I've, I've been, today was maybe kind of boring,
but I, I've had fun recently.

Luke (10:39):
dude, what's that like?
I'm so happy for you.

Jorge (10:42):
Honestly, it's kind of stressful.
Definitely tiring.

Luke (10:46):
That's real.
Yeah, man.
It's rough being age and then it'slike, Oh, having fun is tiring
and not having fun is tiring.
I should just go to sleep right now.

Jorge (10:58):
This, this is true.
Yeah.
I mean, it is past your bedtime.

Luke (11:03):
Not, not in Colorado time, not for another hour or so,

Jorge (11:08):
Right.
It's summer.
It's summer.
I forget.

Luke (11:11):
right.
Although, okay, so here's a fact.
So I, I have been I've decidedthat this is going to, I'm
turning a year older here soon.
Actually, I think this episodecomes out on my birthday and we'll
be having a luau, I think is whenthis episode is supposed to drop.
So,

Jorge (11:25):
I think you're right.
Wow.

Luke (11:27):
yeah.
So anyway, by the time you hear this, I'llbe a year older, and I've decided that
this is gonna be the year of Luke, kindof like the year of George in Seinfeld
but it's gonna go better than that.
And so, I've decided that everymonth, I'm gonna have a goal, and
my goal for July, even though I...
I haven't turned a new age yet is toget my sleep schedule back on track.

(11:51):
And so why am I talking about this?
This was related tosomething I can't remember.
Oh, oh, going to bed.
Yeah.
So so

Jorge (12:00):
I'm enjoying this.

Luke (12:02):
I also don't know why I'm gesturing like this, like touching
my head with both of my hands.
And if this becomes a video, it's goingto be really fun for people to see it.
And if not, just imagine me.
Touching my head with both of myopen palms like windshield wipers.
Anyway going to bed on time.
Yeah, so 1030 is bedtime for me,starting whenever that starts.

Jorge (12:21):
That's incredible.

Luke (12:23):
Thanks.
Dude.

Jorge (12:26):
Dude!
We need to, we need to do more road trips.

Luke (12:29):
dude, we should do a road trip.
We didn't do one this summer.

Jorge (12:33):
We, we, it's not too late.

Luke (12:35):
You're right.
It's not too late.

Jorge (12:37):
It's not too late.
Where do you want to go?
Where would be fun?

Luke (12:41):
I don't know.
I, you know, I've never been to likenorth of here, like, like Wyoming.
Wyoming is a place that I've been to,but like, not a ton, and then like,
I've never been to Montana, I've neverbeen to Idaho, I've been to Washington,
but only like the Seattle area, and so,Yeah, I feel like that's like a whole

(13:04):
part of the continent that I haven'treally seen before, and I hear there's
cool stuff, like potatoes and trees,and Yeah, where would you want to go?

Jorge (13:15):
that's a good question.
I think, I think it'd be funto, I mean this is gonna sound,
you know, freaking basic.
I, yeah.
I want to go to the Pacific Northwest,

Luke (13:28):
Yeah,

Jorge (13:29):
especially right now since it's not that on fire.

Luke (13:32):
hey, yeah, that's always good.

Jorge (13:35):
Yeah, you never know when, you never, where will
you be when diarrhea strikes?

Luke (13:46):
Dude, hopefully somewhere conveniently located.
And that's all I'll say about that.

Jorge (13:53):
That's all you'll say about that.
I can't disagree with that.
No, I, I, I think, I thinkthe Pacific Northwest would be
interesting this time of year.
Like, drive through, I think California.
Wow, I do sound really basic.
Go to the National Park.
Yeah, or, or, or, hear me out, I thinkit would be fun to do a road trip

(14:16):
from like New York City through likethe heart of the country to Denver.

Luke (14:23):
That would be pretty cool.

Jorge (14:25):
Yeah, that would be a long one, that would be a long
one, but I think we could do it.

Luke (14:30):
Yeah.
Like fly from here tothere and then drive back.

Jorge (14:34):
Yeah.

Luke (14:36):
Yeah, that could be fun.

Jorge (14:38):
awful lot in Staten Island.

Luke (14:40):
Whoa.
That would be, that wouldbe a real, a real adventure.

Jorge (14:44):
Flying by the seat of our pants.

Luke (14:46):
right.
What a

Jorge (14:47):
What it's saying...

Luke (14:49):
I'm glad that we both thought that at the same time.
Oh man.
Yeah, what does that mean?
I don't know.

Jorge (14:57):
You know, is, is is the, like bottom of your bottoms, turn into airplane
and then you, you know, screw up and69 or 33, 49, 60 ready for lift off.
It's it's cloudy and.
Ontario, Canada.

Luke (15:18):
But that's not where we are, so we're good.

Jorge (15:20):
That's not, that's not where we're going.
We're going underwater.
Our landing gear is stuck.
And our propeller is made of seaweed.
My name is Sully,

Luke (15:35):
Oh, man.
Wow, dude.

Jorge (15:39):
fight has been brought to you by Comcast Xfinity.

Luke (15:43):
Oh, man, dude.
Okay.
When I worked for the university,which we had the same job for a
while, and then I kept working thereafter you were done working there.
So when I worked there after you workedthere, I had to very often like go to
the houses that were on campus and likemess around with their Xfinity because
like something was always going wrong.
Did you ever have to do that?

Jorge (16:02):
I think so.
I think one time I went with you.

Luke (16:04):
Okay, okay.
Mm

Jorge (16:06):
The Xfinity is always messing up, dawg.

Luke (16:09):
hmm.
Although I will say I haveXfinity in my house and it, knock
on wood, is like usually fine.
Like I've had like maybe oneproblem with it one time for like
all the years that I've lived here.
So I'm grateful for that.
But yes, other places.
I've definitely had a lot of issues.

Jorge (16:25):
I would say, the place I live now, it's been fine most of the time.
There was a couple weeks though where itwas dodgy, like, Xfinity gave me a heads
up, like, hey, we're gonna do constructionin your area, like, we're installing 5G
nanobots into people's direct bloodstreamsand so it's gonna, it's gonna interfere

(16:47):
with your you know, internet or whatever,and They, they were like, Oh, it's
not going to happen for two weeks.
And then the next day we're like, it'sactually going to happen right now.

Luke (16:57):
Oh, jeez.

Jorge (16:59):
they were like, Oh, and my internet was like wonky all day.
And they were like, Hey,we didn't fix anything.
We'll be back tomorrow.
And then they weren't back the next day.
And then the next day after that,they were like, Hey, we're back.
And we.
Are going to start working 20 minutes ago

Luke (17:15):
Oh, jeez.

Jorge (17:17):
and like it was so bad for like for like two weeks.
I was like playing a guessing game aboutif my internet was going to be available.

Luke (17:28):
I would imagine that's tough working from home.
And having to deal with that.

Jorge (17:32):
yeah, my boss is not like that, but that's fine.
Right?
Like it is what it is.
I showed, I showed themthe emails and texts.
They were understanding, but I,I can't say I was, was outputting
my best work at that time.

Luke (17:46):
Right, yeah.
Fair enough, that happens.
Xfinity, stay off the pod, please.

Jorge (17:53):
Stay off the pod, Xfinity.
You know what you did.

Luke (17:58):
Man, have we ever said stay off the pod before?

Jorge (18:02):
No, that's, that's a new one.
Are we...
Wow, video is really changing us.

Luke (18:08):
Yeah, I'm gonna like buy a Peloton or something.

Jorge (18:11):
Oh my goodness.

Luke (18:12):
Just kidding, I'm not gonna buy a Peloton.

Jorge (18:15):
That, that means it's investment, right?
Do you, do you want to invest into that?

Luke (18:19):
No, there's already a stationary bike in my house.
Anyway.

Jorge (18:24):
You gotta upgrade, you know?

Luke (18:25):
Right, because this one's a schwin, I think.

Jorge (18:28):
Is Peloton also a bike brand?
Outside of being, like,the trendy workout thing?

Luke (18:34):
I, I don't think so, but I, I have no proof.
Listeners, if you have any proof,email us at email with your proof.

Jorge (18:42):
Yeah, it's email@email.email.
Just kidding.
It's lukeandjorgepod@gmail.com.

Luke (18:47):
That's right.
Yeah.
Or lukeyjorgepod@gmail.
com.
Si?

Jorge (18:51):
lukeyjorgepod@gmail.com.
We'll have that flash on screen.

Luke (18:58):
Yeah, maybe, yeah.

Jorge (19:00):
I don't know if we can do that.
Listeners, if you are justlistening, find out by watching
the YouTube version of this podcast

Luke (19:10):
yeah,

Jorge (19:11):
or something.

Luke (19:12):
I don't know.
I don't really know anything about editingvideos, so it'll be a real adventure.

Jorge (19:19):
it'll be a real adventure.
I think I'm probably gonna edit this one.

Luke (19:22):
Okay, oh yeah, I think it's, yeah, you're right,

Jorge (19:25):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well.
Well, yeah, I'm not gonna have youedit right before your birthday.

Luke (19:31):
right.
Dude, okay, so I was at happy hour onMonday, today's Wednesday, with some
work friends, some of whom are invited tothe luau, that's a birthday party that's
not my birthday party, and they figuredit out already, so that's something.

Jorge (19:45):
I mean.
There's probably like a staffcalendar that you don't know
about with your birthday on it.
That's what happened to me

Luke (19:52):
Really?
That happened to you?

Jorge (19:54):
Yeah Apparently they'd never invited me to the all staff calendar like
Google calendar that I was supposed tobe on And no one knew that I wasn't on
it because it has but it has everyone'sbirthdays And so I was like, how does
everyone know my birthday already?
And they're like well you kept beingdodgy when we asked you outright when
your birthday was so we looked it upthen put it in the calendar eight times

Luke (20:15):
Oh, that's awesome.

Jorge (20:16):
I kind of deserved it, you know.

Luke (20:18):
Yeah.
I mean, I am similar in that I,like, don't always want people to
know, cause it's like, oh, it'slike a bunch of pressure and stuff.
But then, if people are doingthat to me, I will definitely do
whatever I can to figure it out.
So, I get it.
I get your co workers.
I I have done the same thing.

Jorge (20:34):
Good, good.
I mean, yeah.
I don't love it, but I understand it.
And, I respect it.
They, they, I wouldnever say that to them.
So if they're listening, thisis the only time you'll hear it.
I respect it.

Luke (20:50):
Now you just have to never let them listen to it.
Cause

Jorge (20:53):
I told them about it already.
Yeah, this is what happenswhen I'm in person.
I tell people things.

Luke (20:59):
Yeah.
Cat's out of the bag.

Jorge (21:02):
Cats out of the bag.
Also, what a weird phrase.

Luke (21:06):
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cuz also,

Jorge (21:09):
doing in the bag?

Luke (21:10):
and also like, I could put the cat back in the bag if I wanted to.

Jorge (21:16):
But then you'd be herding a cat.

Luke (21:18):
Herding with an ERD or a URT?

Jorge (21:23):
You know, like herding cats?

Luke (21:24):
Ah, okay, like with an ERD, like sheep?

Jorge (21:27):
Yeah, yeah.
Have you never heard of that?

Luke (21:29):
No, I have, but at first I thought you meant like I would be like, injuring
the cat by putting it in the bag, whichlike, I suppose would be possible.
But I would never.
That's true.
Yeah.
I'm not going to do that.
Don't put your cat in a bag.

Jorge (21:46):
Don't put your no one puts cat in a bag.

Luke (21:49):
Nice.

Jorge (21:51):
Thanks.

Luke (21:52):
Dude.
Sorry.

Jorge (21:53):
what's up?
No, no, no.
Dude.
Did it

Luke (21:55):
say that I laughed really percussively and then my snare
drum that's sitting right behindme kind of rung for a second.
Rang?
Rung?
Ringed it?

Jorge (22:03):
The snare

Luke (22:04):
No, cause I have the snare part turned off.

Jorge (22:06):
Oh, fair.

Luke (22:08):
Yeah.
That

Jorge (22:09):
That's the, that's the drum ring, isn't it?

Luke (22:11):
Oh, yeah.
You're right.
Yeah.
For people that don't know, a snaredrum, you know like the boots and cats
and boots and cats, it's the cats partof the boots and cats, and there's
chains on the bottom of the drum, butyou can like turn it on and off so that
way the chains are either touching thedrum or not, and so that's what we're
talking about, turning the snare off.
So right now the chains are nottouching the drum, so it doesn't make a
sizzly sound when I laugh really loud.

(22:33):
The

Jorge (22:34):
were such a music teacher.

Luke (22:35):
I can't turn it off!
It's terrible.
Dude, I like chastisedsome kids at the gym today.
Which, you know, they're like kidsthat I know, but it's the gym.
So I like, I'm not in charge, but Iwas like, go, like, don't stand there.
Like we have places to be.
And then I was like, Oh, it'stough to turn off sometimes.

Jorge (22:52):
Yeah.

Luke (22:52):
Yeah,

Jorge (22:53):
It's real.
How, I mean, how was it withyour, with your coworkers?
Like, do you, do you all teach her?
You, I know that you all probably don'tteach her each other, but like, do
you have the same banter in front ofstudents as you do outside of school?
School.

Luke (23:07):
not.
And I don't want to reveal too muchbecause I know that some students will
probably hear this, but let's just say Iassume that they are putting up a little
bit of a front with us, and we are puttingup a little bit of a front with them also.

Jorge (23:21):
Whoa.

Luke (23:22):
Yeah.

Jorge (23:24):
The bedsheet separator is really coming down.

Luke (23:29):
What, what do you mean by that?

Jorge (23:31):
You know, like, like, the only thing separating you from them is
like a bedsheet and it's like what'skeeping the illusion up and you
know, you just drop it a little bit.

Luke (23:42):
gotcha.
Okay.
Yes,

Jorge (23:44):
thin separation.

Luke (23:46):
it, it's, it could be a little thicker, like a wool, a wool, or
like a wall, like a wall, like awall with a locking door, please.

Jorge (23:57):
That would be your preference.

Luke (23:58):
Yes, please.

Jorge (24:01):
We're on the same page though.
Our wishes and reality are different.

Luke (24:06):
Mm, yeah, that's a shame.

Jorge (24:09):
Do you want to hear about where I am?
I haven't revealed, have I?

Luke (24:14):
You have to me before we started, but not to the, to the, to
the listeners here on this podcast.

Jorge (24:20):
Listeners, put a drumroll in your brain, or say it out loud.

Luke (24:23):
Or, write a comment!

Jorge (24:25):
Well, I'm about to reveal where I am.

Luke (24:27):
Pause it right now, and guess where you think Jorge is.
3, 2, 1, good job, thanks for doing that.

Jorge (24:36):
Yeah, and for YouTubers, and if you're listening via audio only,
send us an email with your guess.

Luke (24:43):
Yeah, do that, also.

Jorge (24:46):
Is it a coffee pot?

Luke (24:48):
Maybe?

Jorge (24:49):
You're not in a kitchen.

Luke (24:51):
No, I'm this coffee pot is sitting on top of an OVE glove on top of the
top, like, 20 keys of my keyboard.

Jorge (24:58):
god.

Luke (24:59):
Yeah.

Jorge (25:01):
Incredible.
I'm just gonna keep moving forward.

Luke (25:05):
Woo

Jorge (25:05):
Listeners, by now you've probably made some weird guesses about where I am.
But let me tell you, I'min a place stranger still.
I am in Cleveland, Ohio.

Luke (25:18):
hoo!

Jorge (25:19):
This is, this is the HQ of the place where I work.
This is where my co, a lot of my,most of my coworkers live, and
this is where we are doing someprogramming for some youths this week.
So I am in Cleveland, Ohio.
And I have been here since Sunday.
I've had some time to do some fun things.

(25:40):
Both because of workand also in spite of it.

Luke (25:45):
Nice.

Jorge (25:46):
And so I've learned a lot about Ohio.
And in fact, since I've had this job fornearly the last year, Luke, I know that,
you know, basically nothing about this

Luke (25:56):
Mm hmm.
Mm hmm.
My father was born there,but that's all I got for ya.

Jorge (26:00):
That's wonderful.

Luke (26:01):
Yeah.

Jorge (26:03):
Where was your dad born?
And also what's hissocial security number?

Luke (26:07):
and eight.

Jorge (26:09):
Wow.
A celebrity.

Luke (26:12):
Yeah.

Jorge (26:14):
Um, So I have some facts for you, Lucas, about the state of Ohio.
And I need you, I requireyou to tell me if you think
these things are true or false.

Luke (26:29):
Great.

Jorge (26:30):
This is a little game we're gonna play the rules are simple for folks
at home I'm gonna say a fact I'm gonnapause people can pause The video pause
the recording whatever guess what youthink and keep score if you out score
Luke can send us a DM on Instagram

Luke (26:53):
Because you can't otherwise.

Jorge (26:55):
The first two people to do so and, and tell us about their score
higher than Luke with photographicevidence, by which I mean, I don't
know, you figure that out, the firsttwo people to DM us, you win a t shirt.

Luke (27:12):
Ooh, from the stream.

Jorge (27:15):
No one,

Luke (27:16):
The

Jorge (27:17):
no one, no one, no one cashed in their t shirts from the stream.
That's fine.
But we have two t shirts to give away.
You can even tell us your sizeand we'll figure something out.
But for now we're going to play this game.
It's called, is it Ohio?

Luke (27:33):
Wait, is, is there like a threshold of numbers that I
can get right to win something?
Can I win a t shirt?

Jorge (27:41):
You have a t shirt.

Luke (27:42):
You're right.

Jorge (27:44):
You can win my admiration by your wonderful guessing a tude.

Luke (27:49):
Oh, that's what I've always been craving, dad.

Jorge (27:53):
was not ready for you to call me your father.
But I'll embrace it, son.
Okay, the

Luke (28:00):
you embrace me too, dad?
Can we play catch?

Jorge (28:05):
Only if you do your homework.

Luke (28:06):
fair enough.
Tomorrow.

Jorge (28:09):
Fair enough.
Okay, so, so here's what I got.
Ohio, believe it or not, has a state...
Or, sorry, Ohio, believe itor not, has a national park.
Is this true or false?

Luke (28:23):
just like has any, any singular national park?

Jorge (28:27):
Yes.
Well, not all states have national parks.

Luke (28:29):
Ah, I, I'm gonna say, okay, I, I'm gonna say true and I'm gonna
say it, it has like a weird name.
That's my, I'm taking,

Jorge (28:42):
you're doubling

Luke (28:43):
swing, yep.

Jorge (28:44):
That's a huge swing!
What if it has like a normal name,like the Ohio Valley State Park?

Luke (28:52):
Can I, if it's, if, if it's that, can I get like a point
for being correct and then nopenalties for my big swing a tude?

Jorge (29:01):
Is this your final answer?

Luke (29:02):
Yep, I'm going with it.
Yes, and it's a weird name.

Jorge (29:07):
the name of the
state park is Cuyahoga Valley

MacBook Pro Microphone (29:10):
National

Jorge (29:11):
Park.

Luke (29:11):
Ooh, okay, well I feel weird saying that that's weird because it's
probably just like a Native American name.

Jorge (29:17):
It is.
It is.
Are you going to alienate theindigenous peoples of this

Luke (29:21):
No!
Please, I don't want to do that.

Jorge (29:23):
You only get one point,

Luke (29:25):
Okay.
Okay, hey, I'm on the
board!

Jorge (29:29):
yeah, you're on the board of education

Luke (29:34):
Oh, I don't want to

Jorge (29:34):
of the state of Topeka, Kansas and you're being sued

Luke (29:38):
Oh no.

Jorge (29:40):
for lack of integration

Luke (29:43):
poor Kansas.

Jorge (29:44):
the defendant is brown and not the color, like the name.

Luke (29:49):
Oh, like Brown V Board?

Jorge (29:52):
Yeah.
Brown versus the Boardof Education of Topeka,

Luke (29:55):
Yeah.

Jorge (29:56):
Yeah, you're on the board.
You got it right.
Yeah.
Ohio does indeed have a national parkand it is Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

Luke (30:05):
Sweet.
We need like a ka ching sound.

Jorge (30:08):
we do.
Well, we'll put it in a post.
It'll happen in post.

Luke (30:11):
Wait, here it is.
Ready?
Ka ching!

Jorge (30:13):
That's not what post means.
You making the sound with your mouth?
No.
No.
The, the park, not only is it a, anational park, it is rather beautiful.

Luke (30:24):
Woo!
So you've been to the park?

Jorge (30:27):
I have, I, I went on a really nice hike on Sunday afternoon.
It was, it was, it was really incredible.
And I, yeah one of my coworkers pickedme up from, not from the airport for,
from something else that I was doing.
And drove me to the national park andwe went on a hike and he was great.

Luke (30:48):
Nice!
Very cool.

Jorge (30:49):
Yeah.

Luke (30:51):
Okay, I was gonna ask if you've seen any squirrels and if
you've noticed what color they are.

Jorge (30:56):
I have not seen squirrels, though I did see a chipmunk.

Luke (30:59):
Okay.

Jorge (31:01):
Yeah, but I have no answer to the squirrel color question.

Luke (31:05):
If you, if you see any, take note of what color the squirrels are.

Jorge (31:10):
Okay.
Yeah.
Here's statement number two for youto tell me if it's true or false.

Luke (31:16):
Alright.

Jorge (31:17):
There are fireflies in the state of Ohio.

Luke (31:20):
Oh, that's gotta be true, because there's fireflies in Pennsylvania.
And that's nearby, I think, question mark.
I'm going with true.
No big swing on this one.

Jorge (31:32):
You're right, it is true.

Luke (31:34):
Sick.

Jorge (31:36):
Statement number three, Ohio is close to Pennsylvania.

Luke (31:40):
Oh, well, I guess close is relative.
Do they share a border?
Hold on.
Calculating.
I don't think they share a border,but I do think they're close.

Jorge (31:52):
Okay, then, that's too nebulous then.

Luke (31:55):
Well,

Jorge (31:55):
Do they share a border, yes or no?

Luke (31:58):
I'm gonna go, I'm going with...
I'm going with no, but I'm not sure.

Jorge (32:04):
You're going with, is that your final answer?

Luke (32:06):
Yes.

Jorge (32:08):
You're wrong!

Luke (32:09):
Ah, bummer.

Jorge (32:11):
Pennsylvania is directly east of Ohio.

Luke (32:16):
Oh,

Jorge (32:17):
Pittsburgh to Cleveland, where I am, is Like, two hours It's two
hours from Cleveland to Pittsburgh.

Luke (32:25):
Well,

Jorge (32:26):
So Yeah, how does it feel to be wrong

Luke (32:29):
filled with shame, and to the whole, my mom's side of the family, I'm sorry.
But also, nope, that's all I got.
My sincerest apologies tothe, to the, to the fam a lam.

Jorge (32:43):
fair enough?

Luke (32:44):
Yep.

Jorge (32:45):
In in a similar vein Ohio Ha is, has a, a fairly sizable Amish population.
True or false?

Luke (32:55):
Ooh, oh, okay.
I thought that was like a fun extrafact that was just non disputable.
Anyway I, cause I know that there'slike the Pennsylvania Dutch that I,
I think are similar or the same asAmish question mark, but I feel like
we've had a lot of true ones so far.
So maybe it's time to be false, butalso maybe they're just all true.

(33:18):
So I'm going to go with, I'm goingto, okay, let's take a big swing.
Are you ready for my big swing?

Jorge (33:24):
I read it for your big

Luke (33:25):
Here it is.
I'm going to go with true.
There are, there is an Amish populationand they have a rivalry with the
Pennsylvania Amish population.

Jorge (33:36):
What?
That's outside the scope of this question.

Luke (33:39):
I don't know.
Felt like a, a good swing to take.

Jorge (33:44):
The answer there is in fact, Amish people in

Luke (33:48):
Let's go.

Jorge (33:51):
I can't, I can't.
I, it's out of, it's, I I don'thave the knowledge about whether
or not they have a Right.
I don't even know what thatwould begin to look like.
Right.

Luke (34:00):
Me neither.
It couldn't be like a TikTok thing.

Jorge (34:05):
no, but I'm gonna, but yes, there are in fact Irish Amish people in Ohio.
Also Irish,
but we're talking about the Amish.

Luke (34:14):
Right.

Jorge (34:15):
Yeah, yeah, they are, there's Amish country in Ohio, like there's a part of
Ohio that's like known as Amish country.
Near Gambier is like a town that Ionce spent time in, in Ohio that is
like known for its Amish country.
It's like maybe an hour, two hoursfrom Columbus or something like that.

Luke (34:36):
Okay.

Jorge (34:37):
it's where Kenyon college is and Kenyon Kenyon is in
the middle of Amish country.

Luke (34:42):
Okay.

Jorge (34:43):
Yeah.
Yeah.

Luke (34:46):
Neat.

Jorge (34:46):
Okay.
I have, I have maybeone or two more facts.
I don't know how you're feeling.

Luke (34:50):
Fair enough.
I, well are you keeping score?
Cause I don't think I was, butI feel like I'm three for four.
Does that sound right?
Mm

Jorge (34:58):
I think, I think you were cause the one that you
missed was the Pennsylvania one.

Luke (35:04):
hmm, but I got the, okay.
All right, listeners, that's,that's, are you gonna beat me?
Cuz I don't know, I'm doing pretty okay.

Jorge (35:14):
You got to get them perfect.
And how are, and obviously you'regoing to tell me the truth.

Luke (35:21):
Right, of course.
No one ever lies on the internet.

Jorge (35:24):
Oh, but though one of the people listening could be from Ohio
and they might just know everything.
Cause everyone from Ohioknows everything about Ohio.
Okay.
Are you ready for, I have, Ihave a couple more questions.
I think I have three more, three

Luke (35:36):
me, yes.

Jorge (35:38):
Yes.
Ohio has the largest populationof stray cats in the country.

Luke (35:48):
Whoa, that's a weirdly specific thing.
Wha If I'm thinking of a place that hasa lot of stray cats, do I think of Ohio?
Do I ever think of Ohio?
Not really.
I...
I, okay, let's take another big swing.
Let's see what we can do.
I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say no,and, and Ohio's animal shelters

(36:15):
are the best funded in the country.

Jorge (36:18):
Why, why would you do this to me?

Luke (36:20):
I don't know.

Jorge (36:21):
I, I don't know.
I can't verify one way or the

Luke (36:25):
Well, fair.

Jorge (36:25):
You're, you're right.
It's not Ohio.

Luke (36:29):
Is, do you know where it is?

Jorge (36:32):
I know it's not Ohio.

Luke (36:35):
cool.

Jorge (36:35):
again, outside of the range of knowledge of mine.
Um, yes.
Okay, two more questions.
Or I guess statements.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fameis located in the state of Ohio.

Luke (36:53):
I should know this.
And my immediate thought was gonna be, no,it's in Nashville, but is it in Nashville?
I don't know.
Because like, if, if, if you were, ifyou came up to me on the street and you
were like, Hey, you know that the rockand roll hall of fame is in Ohio, right?
I'd be like, yeah, sure.
Okay.
So, but also what if it's not, I'mgoing to go, I'm going to go with sure.

(37:18):
And I think it's inCleveland specifically.

Jorge (37:22):
Roll Hall of Fame is in Cleveland, Ohio.
It's in downtown.
It's right on the shores of Lake Erie.

Luke (37:29):
Wow.

Jorge (37:31):
Because Cleveland is known as the birthplace of rock and roll.

Luke (37:37):
Why was there like a person that happened there or like several people?

Jorge (37:44):
Weirdly enough, also outside of, the scope of my knowledge.
I couldn't tell you, yeah.
There was an exhibit at theRock and Roll Hall of Fame,
I got to visit, it was great.
I, there was an exhibit aboutCleveland and I didn't pay as
much attention as I should have.
There was a lot of cool stuff to see.
I was kind of trying to move throughit quickly, which was a mistake.
I should have stayed a littlebit longer, but it was good.

(38:04):
It was really, really good.
And I would go back again.

Luke (38:07):
Very cool.

Jorge (38:09):
And, you know, that brings us to our final question.
Now, you've only missed one so

Luke (38:18):
Right.
So.

Jorge (38:20):
so, you could have a near perfect game.

Luke (38:24):
I could.

Jorge (38:26):
You could also lose it all right now.

Luke (38:29):
Right.
Yeah.
I'd
be

Jorge (38:30):
going to take away all your points.
No, yeah, it's yeah, there's,there's a, there's one more question.
That's it.

Luke (38:37):
Alright, hit me baby.
I'm ready?

Jorge (38:41):
Okay.
Final question.
Ohio, is connected via land to Canada.

Luke (38:51):
Connected via
land?

Jorge (38:53):
It shares a land border with Canada.

Luke (38:55):
I don't think that's true.
I could see it being connected viawater to Canada, but I feel like there's
some other, I, I'm realizing that mygeography in like the upper right half
of the country is perhaps not the best.
Cause there's like a lot oflittle bitty guys up there, right?
Like Delaware and stuff, Maryland.
Actually, I could probably pointit to, but like New Hampshire.
Where's New Hampshire?

(39:15):
I don't know.
I'm gonna go with no, I don'tthink Ohio touches Canada via land.
But I bet there's a great lake.
Oh, Lake Erie, you just said.
Yeah, so that, that'sgotta touch Canada with

Jorge (39:26):
Or was I throwing you off?
Was I trying to confuse

Luke (39:29):
I don't think so.
I think, I think I'm going withno, it does not touch Canada.
Final answer.
Oh, and here for my big swing.

Jorge (39:37):
You don't have to do this.

Luke (39:39):
People in Ohio hate Canada.
They hate it.

Jorge (39:42):
This is such a hot thing.

Luke (39:45):
You gotta go big or go home, you know?

Jorge (39:48):
You really didn't have to.

Luke (39:51):
I have seen sports before.

Jorge (39:54):
you sure?
I'm not I'm not sure that you're sure.
OK.
Are you sure about Canada, though?

Luke (40:01):
Yes.

Jorge (40:03):
Okay, Ohio does not share a land border with Canada, and it is
in fact connected only via Lake Erie.

Luke (40:14):
Ka ching!
That's the sound of me winning.

Jorge (40:18):
Now, because you also said that they hate Canadians, that's I mean, as far
as like, like Ohioans, please, you know,tell us down below and also email us,
tell us, you know, do you hate Canadians?
But I will say so far, it does notseem that these people hate Canadians.

(40:39):
It seems rather the opposite.
They're pretty ambivalent toslash warm towards Canadians.

Luke (40:48):
That seems deserved.
The times that I've been inCanada, I've had a lovely time.

Jorge (40:54):
Even though you were in the French part of Canada.

Luke (40:57):
Well, I've been in the English part of Canada also.
I got stuck in an elevator in Canada.
Well, no, I didn't, but I had tohelp children that were stuck in
an elevator in Canada this summer.
So...
Yeah.

Jorge (41:09):
incredible.

Luke (41:10):
Yeah.
Wow.
Thank you for these Ohio facts.
I feel so educated on Ohio.

Jorge (41:17):
You're welcome.
And so I think the final scorewas like six out of seven.

Luke (41:23):
We will take it.
That sounds good to me.

Jorge (41:26):
So if if you if you got all seven, hit us up on Instagram

Luke (41:32):
Yeah.

Jorge (41:32):
and then we'll we'll be able to chat with you directly
and hopefully give you a shirt.
But we need a photographicevidence that you beat Luke.

Luke (41:41):
Whatever that means.

Jorge (41:42):
You decide.

Luke (41:44):
Mm hmm.
Choose your own adventure.
Wow.
This was fun.
This could be, this could be a, a thing.
We could just have facts aboutthings and debate their validity.
Is this a new segment?

Jorge (41:59):
wow.
Season two is getting wild.

Luke (42:02):
Dude, yeah.

Jorge (42:04):
I'm down for it.
I'm I'm here for it.

Luke (42:06):
Radical brother.

Jorge (42:08):
Radical.
Oh, I had one more.
This is a bonus

Luke (42:13):
Ooh, the bonus one.
Give me the

Jorge (42:14):
The bonus one.
In Cleveland, this is a Clevelandspecific, not, maybe not an Ohio
thing, but a Cleveland thing.

Luke (42:22):
Okay.

Jorge (42:23):
There is a sport played in Cleveland, and it is called Whirlybird.

Luke (42:30):
That seems too weird to be wrong.
So I'm going to say, yes, I agree.

Jorge (42:37):
Can you guess what the sport, one of the components of this sport?

Luke (42:41):
A whirlybird?
I'm going to say.
I want to say either something frisbeerelated or something like akin to I was
going to say croquet but that's not right.
Badminton.
Something kind of akin to badminton.
Those are my guesses.

Jorge (42:55):
Those are, those are excellent guesses.
In fact, Whirlybird is actuallya combination of bumper
cars and Like, lacrosse?

Luke (43:06):
Bro, what?

Jorge (43:08):
Yeah, yeah, you, you, everyone is in, there's two teams, right?
Everyone is in these modified bumper cars.
Modified so that you cansteer them with like one hand.
And, basically you havelike little scoopers.
They're like in the shape of likea lacrosse head, but like rounded
and and and little balls and you'rebasically flinging them at like the

(43:33):
backboards of like basketball backboards.

Luke (43:35):
Oh, wow.

Jorge (43:39):
Yeah.
And the end points are awarded for.
Hitting the backboards pointsare awarded to the opposite team.
If you foul,

Luke (43:51):
Okay.
What, what constitutes a foul?

Jorge (43:54):
there's, Oh, I'm glad you asked.
There's a couple of things.
If you hit another car going veryquickly, well, they're stopped.
If it's excessive velocity, likeexcessive, you ram somebody with
excessive force, that's, that's a penalty.
If you hit, Like another person'slike little hand scoopy thing.

(44:15):
That's a penalty.
If you're, I think also it was like,if you beat the hand thingy against
your own vehicle or you're just beingdestructive because we're using other
people's property, I think that thatwas a foul maybe for those reasons.
Like you, that wouldn't happen in likea professional game probably, but yeah.

(44:37):
yeah,

Luke (44:37):
you have to like, go to a place to play this?

Jorge (44:41):
it's like a specialized like ring.
Because it has to be like a bumpercar sort of area with like the,
the, the basketball backboards.

Luke (44:50):
Okay, wow, that sounds pretty fun.

Jorge (44:55):
This was our team bonding.

Luke (44:57):
Do you feel bonded?

Jorge (45:00):
I feel, I feel good.
I, I, I feel, I feel closer to my team andto my co workers maybe more than I should.

Luke (45:09):
Oh, all right.

Jorge (45:11):
They saw a part of me.
I'm not competitive, but I am weird.

Luke (45:16):
Oh man.

Jorge (45:18):
Like, I'm like, I'm glad everyone had fun, and also.
Yeah, no, it was a lot of fun.
We also did like bowling.
It was like the same place,they do that and like bowling.
As you can imagine.

Luke (45:30):
Okay, yeah, that seems like that tracks.

Jorge (45:32):
Yeah,

Luke (45:33):
Nice.

Jorge (45:34):
Yeah!

Luke (45:36):
That sounds like, kind of like the closest thing to
Rocket League we have in real

Jorge (45:41):
in real life?
Oh my lord, yeah.
Kind of.

Luke (45:44):
Yeah, like cars and balls.
That's the name of the episode!

Jorge (45:49):
Whoa!

Luke (45:50):
It doesn't have to be, but it could be.

Jorge (45:53):
Like, it probably will be, because you said it, you willed it into existence.

Luke (45:56):
Manifesting is real.

Jorge (45:59):
Manifesting is real.
And so is my anxiety.

Luke (46:05):
That could be a t shirt.
Very cool.

Jorge (46:09):
Very cool.

Luke (46:10):
I'm glad you're having a good time in Ohio.
Ohioing it up.

Jorge (46:14):
You know, it's been, it's been, Ohio has treated me surprisingly well.
And I, not, I'm not surprised by it,but I think other people might be.
Yeah.
That anyone, or anything,could treat me well.

Luke (46:26):
Oh!
Oh no!

Jorge (46:28):
Just kidding.
Just kidding.
People are nice to me sometimes.

Luke (46:32):
Sometimes.

Jorge (46:34):
Occasionally.
Yeah.

Luke (46:35):
Yeah, depending on one's mood.
Yeah,

Jorge (46:40):
Well, what what, what else do you want to do?

Luke (46:42):
I had a kind of a shower thought that I I wanted to share with you

Jorge (46:47):
Oh yeah.

Luke (46:49):
I would consider myself a card carrying member of
the facial hair community.
Not that we have cards, but you know

Jorge (46:57):
I was about to ask if you had a card.

Luke (46:58):
I, I don't.
I would like one.
I would take one if they hadthem, but no, I, I don't have a
card, but I have a facial hairand you also have a facial hair.

Jorge (47:06):
Oh, I do.

Luke (47:07):
do.
And so I don't know if this is anexperience that you can relate with,
but I feel like I, I have this facialhair and I'm like, boy, everyone's
going to be so impressed with my facialhair and it's going to be so rad.
And sometimes people arelike, Hey, nice beard.
And I'm like, hey, thanks.
I find that the people that I talk aboutit with the most are other card carrying

(47:29):
members of the facial hair community.
And then I started to thinkof like, well, are there other
things that are kind of like that?
And so, off the top of my head, inthe shower, I thought about like,
oh, like, gym rat type people.
It's like, sort of similar, right?
Like, if you go to the gym alot, you're probably not going to
talk about it with anyone otherthan your like, gym rat buddies.

(47:53):
And and then I was like,what else could be like that?
And then I was like, oh, like carpeople and especially like pickup
truck or Subaru people, like, youknow, if you're not in the community,
then you don't want to hear about it.
And so those are those are some things.
And I wondered if we couldthink of any more things that
are kind of similar to that.

Jorge (48:12):
Oh, for sure.
Like playing guitar,

Luke (48:15):
Oh, yeah,

Jorge (48:16):
right?
Like if you talk to like eight year oldme and told eight year old me that playing
guitar would not get women to talk toyou, it would just get other weird guitar
players to come up and talk to you.
Like when I'm doneplaying guitar in a thing.
Women don't come up andlike, oh my goodness.

(48:37):
That was so hot.
It's always hey, Doug.
What are your pedals?
Right.
Oh, that's interesting.
Well, yeah, what you're friggin Squirejazz master is that is that the Oh,
your pickups are the other ones?
That's interesting.
Yeah, I like, I like to playwith heavier strings, actually.

(49:01):
You're, you're wrongfor liking lighter ones.
Like, it's, you know, like,Oh, you're using jazz picks?
I only use...
You know, the tortoise ones withthe really colorful colors, like,
Oh, you, you know, like it's, it'salways something dumb like that.
By which I mean, like, I lovetalking to people about guitars,
but you know, yeah, I'm not cool.

Luke (49:23):
You are among guitarists.
Maybe.

Jorge (49:27):
You know, my opinions are pretty, pretty, yeah.
People are like, Oh, what's your amp?
And I'm like this crappy one that I gotoff Facebook marketplace that I really
loved despite it always sounding bad.

Luke (49:41):
I think it's, is it the one that I've heard before?
Cause I think it sounds fine, butalso I, maybe I'm not educated enough.

Jorge (49:48):
You know, I don't think I am either.
I just really enjoy my instrument.

Luke (49:53):
Hey, sometimes that's all you need.

Jorge (49:55):
Yeah.
I, so I would say, I would say, yeah,I would say playing guitars like that.
And most instruments, honestly,like if you're playing in a band,
most instruments are like that.

Luke (50:06):
Yeah, that's fair.
Yeah.

Jorge (50:08):
Yeah.

Luke (50:09):
Maybe like rock climbing.
Do you think that's like that?
I'm not really in therock climbing community.

Jorge (50:16):
I don't know if rock climbers are trying to impress non rock climbers.
I think they're just trying to makeeveryone feel, you know, inferior.

Luke (50:26):
That's fair.
Okay.
Yeah, you're right.
Yeah.
That's less kind of outward facing.

Jorge (50:31):
Oh, you climb.
Oh, but you don't boulder.

Luke (50:35):
Hmm.

Jorge (50:35):
Oh, you climb in a gym.
Oh, I actually, I don't even use my hands.

Luke (50:41):
just use my teeth.

Jorge (50:43):
I just, I actually like to chew through the rocks as I climb.

Luke (50:48):
Why do you need to climb it?
If you can just gnaw through it,

Jorge (50:51):
Oh, your body can't, can't digest rocks?
That's rough, buddy.

Luke (50:57):
Evolutionarily inferior.

Jorge (51:00):
Anyways, I need to go take care of this hernia.

Luke (51:03):
By eating more rocks.

Jorge (51:05):
By eating more rocks.
I'm trying to think of whatother things could be like that.

Luke (51:13):
This could be a good time for some listener input.
Listeners, if you know of or are a partof kind of a weird niche community that's
trying to impress other people but insteadonly impresses themselves, let us know!

Jorge (51:24):
yeah.
Comments down below or viaemail, you know who you are.
Pick your, you've picked your, you'vepicked, you've picked your medium.
I'm trying to think.
I, I like, there's gottabe other good ones, right?
What have we said?
We said we, instruments, cars, beards.
Beards are definitely like that for sure.
I, I, yeah.

(51:46):
I like to tell people whentheir beards are cool and I feel
like I'm not the person that.
People with beards want to hear from.

Luke (51:54):
I mean, you know, I feel like anytime anyone tells me my beard
is cool, I'm like, hey, thanks.
Let me tell you about the five things thatI do every morning to take care of it.
Just kidding.
I only do that if they ask.

Jorge (52:06):
Yeah, fair enough.

Luke (52:07):
Yeah.

Jorge (52:09):
I would say another thing that's similar to that is well, I don't know.
Beer people like to talk about beer.

Luke (52:20):
Beer.
Beer with no D, like the drink.

Jorge (52:23):
yes.

Luke (52:24):
Yes.
Okay.

Jorge (52:26):
like, not that anyone drinks, like, a particular beer
to, like, impress other people.
But, but beer people find each other.
And they're like, oh, like, oh,that's a really good, like, oh,
that's a really good porter.
Have you tried this quintupleIPA that was barrel aged in a...
Wineglass Basement Yeah, it was actuallyskunked purposely with a year old

(52:55):
cod to really bring out the hoppinessand all of the astringent, terrible
flavors of the moss that was growingon a tree 400 yards away outdoors.

Luke (53:11):
Wow, you know, for a second there I was like, I would drink these beers
and then, and then, and then it changed.
And then now I don't want to.

Jorge (53:18):
Yeah, anyway, this beer is 18

Luke (53:23):
Holy heck.
That would be a lot.

Jorge (53:26):
ABV it's it's it's also 3, 000 Scoville

Luke (53:32):
Dude, that would be terrible.
I wouldn't want that.
Yeah.
Also like an eight on the Richter scale.

Jorge (53:39):
and it makes your credit go down 40 points.

Luke (53:42):
Oh no, that'll take me from average to terrible.
I actually don't know whatthe, what the things are, but

Jorge (53:50):
I don't either.

Luke (53:51):
Yeah.

Jorge (53:52):
my credit card company keeps saying it's a problem.

Luke (53:54):
Oh, well, just delete those emails and then, then it doesn't, it's not real.

Jorge (54:00):
You're right.
Yeah.

Luke (54:02):
Yeah.

Jorge (54:04):
Have you in the last couple of years been just getting
so many credit card companiesreaching out to you via mail?

Luke (54:12):
More than none, but I wouldn't say like a ton.
Do you have

Jorge (54:19):
Too many, yeah, yeah, it feels predatory,

Luke (54:23):
Oh yeah.
Do you ever sign
up
for any of them?

Jorge (54:27):
it is we don't have to talk about that,

Luke (54:30):
Fair enough.
Oh, okay, here's a fun fact.
So when I was in high school, I was, I,I had a friend and we were really into
like parkour and stuff, but also kind ofadjacent to that was like lock picking
and like the ability to break into stuff.
And so
we learned, and so nothing

Jorge (54:47):
does everyone go through a lockpicking phase?

Luke (54:49):
Maybe, I don't know.
It seems like it would be a goodskill to have until you learn
that it's like hard to do it.
But, but so my friend and I, we figuredout the method where you can just
like take a credit card and like slipit in to the door jam, like to like
scooch the, the The like part of thedoorknob to the side, you know, so like

(55:10):
if it's deadbolted, you can't do it.
But if it's just the handleslocked, you can do that.
And so then I would just like take allthe fake credit cards from the credit
card ads that my parents would get.
And then I would just use thoseto try to learn how to break into
places, mostly just my own house.
But yeah, so you can use those for that.

Jorge (55:30):
Incredible.
I feel like most, most of the onesI've gotten don't even have one
on the inside of, they have like apicture of like a perspective one.

Luke (55:37):
Lame.
I mean, that's probablylike less wasteful and stuff

Jorge (55:42):
Yeah.
But maybe they shouldn'tsend the letters to begin

Luke (55:45):
True.
That's yep.
That's real.

Jorge (55:47):
Also, I thought of another one

Luke (55:49):
Ooh.
What is it?

Jorge (55:52):
like photographers,

Luke (55:53):
Hmm.
Okay.

Jorge (55:55):
like, like it's people.
I, it's always a hope of like, at leastwhen I go shooting that somebody's going
to be like, Hey, that's a cool camera.
Do you do photography?
Do you want to take photosof things for me for money?
And, and it's almost always like, Hey.
Is that a Nikon X95 64, K12, 30 3, R R P X Y W Z?

(56:25):
Oh, is that lens 80 to900, 000 milliliters?
Like, that's great, yeah.
My, I also prefer to shootmicro four fifths of an eighth.
And this, oh.
By the way, this is me.
This is, this is the person I am.
I literally had this conversation earlierwith my co worker who was shooting photos

(56:49):
of a thing that we were doing for workand I was just like, Oh, you know, this
camera is the camera that I want to get.
And isn't that incredible?
And they were like, yeah, and oh man,and And I know, and I know it was like,
this is somebody I work with and like,I'm grateful for and I am, I, and also,

(57:15):
I feel bad that I am the stereotype.
I hope the things I said aresmart and like thoughtful and,
you know, maybe like a point of.
You know, celebrating a hobby of mine and,and something that they also enjoy doing.
I, I, I say that because I don't, youknow, part of it is also their job.
But, you know, at the same time, I'm theworst and so I need to make fun of myself.

Luke (57:42):
Yeah.
I mean, it's tough though.
Like, you know, if you see someonein a community that you're also
in, like it's tough to not.
Want to talk to them aboutthat community, you know,

Jorge (57:53):
That's true.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Gamers aren't like that.
Gamers are not like that.

Luke (57:59):
you're right I think I think gamers are are not under the impression that
they're impressing other people which
is Probably good that they know that

Jorge (58:12):
Yes.
No one's impressed.
And also gamers are tooshy to talk to anyone.

Luke (58:17):
Right, you're right.
Yeah, except for unlikediscord or something

Jorge (58:23):
Yeah, or on like Xbox live when they're calling you slurs

Luke (58:28):
I can't say I've had that happen.
But also I Xbox.
So that's probably why

Jorge (58:33):
You know, that's probably why

Luke (58:36):
No slurs on PlayStation.

Jorge (58:39):
oh Okay,

Luke (58:44):
Yeah,

Jorge (58:46):
dog it's been a whole episode

Luke (58:48):
has.
We really did it.

Jorge (58:50):
we really did Do you have anything to plug?

Luke (58:55):
No, wash your hands, drink some water.
Hey, it's crazy.
Okay.
This is the thing that I've figuredout way too recently, but it's crazy.
Like if you're, if you're sittingdown and you're like, huh, I don't
really feel great, like have a glassof water and then like walk around the
block and you'll feel way better that.
Yeah, that's all.
I'm I'm

Jorge (59:15):
That's really sound life advice

Luke (59:17):
Yeah, it, you know, I figured it out fairly recently.
Take a, take a short walk, havea glass of water, move your body
any amount, you'll feel better.

Jorge (59:27):
Mm hmm.
Mm hmm.

Luke (59:30):
That's all.
Do you Do you haveanything you want to plug?

Jorge (59:33):
Yeah, you should register to vote.

Luke (59:36):
Ooh, yeah.

Jorge (59:38):
Yeah, it's not an election year, but it will be

Luke (59:42):
Right.
They keep coming around again and again.

Jorge (59:45):
Every couple years.

Luke (59:46):
Yeah,

Jorge (59:48):
Maybe it is an election year where you are for your local or
county or state or In your heartin your dreams Register to vote in
your dreams and also in real life,

Luke (01:00:00):
That would be a weird dream to have to register to vote.
That's like a work dream,but like a citizenship dream.

Jorge (01:00:09):
It's kind of stressful.

Luke (01:00:10):
Yeah.

Jorge (01:00:11):
Do it in real life so you don't have to dream about it.

Luke (01:00:13):
There you go.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
