What do Rice Krispies, catchy jingles, and late-night police visits have in common? They're all part of our latest episode packed with humor and curiosity! Join us as we kick things off with a light-hearted dad joke exchange that spirals into an intriguing discussion on why some tunes refuse to leave our heads. We also share our excitement for the upcoming college football season and the joys of grilling and chilling by the fire pit. And hold on tight, because there's a suspenseful teaser about an incident involving the police and fire department that we'll dive into on a future episode.
Ever had a rabbit wreak havoc in your garden? We have, and it sparked a lively chat on emergency preparedness. From food rationing and water filtration to the importance of having a crank radio, we find out we aren't ready. We also ponder the reliance on technology and what recent disruptions might mean for the future. To keep things light, we share some laughs about our noisy neighbor's bird and how certain phrases can instantly trigger songs in our heads, proving life is a mix of practicality and humor.
Ready for a quirky road trip? We take you on a virtual tour of Tennessee's roadside attractions, reminiscing about Little Debbie Park and gushing over the Bush's Baked Beans Visitor Center—complete with a giant bean sculpture! Our banter continues with a peek into our family life, from peculiar habits and routine quirks to a fascinating discussion on why Canadians buy milk in bags. As always, we wrap up with heartfelt thanks to our loyal listeners and a sneak peek at what’s coming next. You won't want to miss this fun-filled and engaging episode!

because you can build a fireanytime.
You like to play in fire, youlike to get burnt by fires, you
like to get the cops called onyou because you burn when you're
not supposed to burn.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Well, you gotta do what you gotta do that's another
subject, that's a story foranother day, story for another

Sorry, jody, don't want to relive that one no.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
At 12 o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 2 (03:14):

Just don't like him.
And they called two cops.
Anyway, we ain't going there.
Four firefighters, stay tuned,we'll go back there one day, all
right, here's just anotherthing that I was thinking about.
(03:36):
So you didn't like my joke.
You didn't know the answer tomy question you just took me by
surprise.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
If you tell it another one, I might laugh, but
you don't have to look one up,that's fine, you should have
laughed.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
No matter, you should laugh at all my corny jokes.
I can't claim that when I sawit somewhere, all right.
So when you hear a jingle or asong on a commercial or
something like that, does itstay in your head forever?
Not forever for a long timesometimes you just go humming it
(04:09):
and singing it or whatever.
Why is that?
Speaker 1 (04:12):
why why is it?
It's just like you just can'tquit well, why is it that you
think of a song or somethinglike that that you haven't heard
in a long time, and you've gotit on your mind, and then you
turn the radio on and bam it'splaying well, like why is that?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I was scrolling and then you started singing the
song five minutes after I wasalready scrolled by that song.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
What was it?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I always feel like somebody's watching me.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Who sings that?
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I really don't know.
I'm sure you do, I know, Idon't know.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I know Michael Jackson does like the background
.
That part of it I always feellike somebody's watching me.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
What's the next words ?
Dun dun, dun, dun, dun dun.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Whoa, that's all I know of it.
Okay, that's all I got, so you?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
saw that on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Saw what.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
That song, or you heard it.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
No, I was scrolling somewhere just before we came on
.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Is that why I sang it , and then you started singing
it.
Okay, yes, okay.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, so it was on my phone before we came on.
Yeah, that's why.
That's why you started singingit.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
So it was like a subliminal thing because I
didn't even realize I heard it.
I just started singing it, yep,it was.
Oh, another thing, I did say arandom thought.
I've got a list of psychologyquestions and one of them says
that there's no such thing assubliminal messages, yet
(05:39):
companies use it.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
All the time?
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah, just I guess, in case.
Maybe I don't know, but it'sbeen proven that it's not true.
Bologna.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I found that they don't know squat.
Well, that's Nicholas.
He's got to take that psychcollege class.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Is he taking psychology?
Supposed to, is he?
Well, if he's supposed to, Iguess he will, won't he?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
I guess.
So We'll see All right.
Another thought I just had.
I'm just all over the place,just got to deal with me Tell me
Got to deal with me today, so Iwent to the grocery store a
while ago.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Is this a joke or are we true?
Laughing at you?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
No, we true laughing at you.
I went to the grocery storebecause when I try to buy
groceries I don't like going tothe grocery store.
I like to do Walmart pickup.
I like to put my groceries inmy cart, I like them to bring
them to my cart and I don't wantto go in there.
I don't like it.
So for some reason you can'tget freezer stuff anymore on
(06:36):
your grocery pickup.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Walmart, or at least I can't yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Walmart, so I went to the local grocery store Hold up
, hold up.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
So I went to the local grocery store.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Hold up why you can't get any frozen stuff at all.
It always tells me I can't.
And you know, nicholas, he'sgot to have his Dinobots, so
I've been having to make himtake a look.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
What's the reason for that?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I guess it's the weather, I guess it's too hot
and people check in 30 minutesbefore they get there and then
people were complaining.
Maybe I really don't know andpeople were complaining.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
maybe I really don't know.
So are they saying that Walmartis having to order the stuff
and it's melting out there onthe sidewalk waiting on them to?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
get there.
Is that what they're trying tosay?
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It don't work that way though.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Well, I don't know.
That's the only thing I canfigure.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Because don't they have it in their log?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Well, they do, but if you check in till I get there,
was this a problem last summer?
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I don't remember it being a problem no, I've never
had a problem with it so if yougot two or three yahoos, that's
complaining about it.
Why are we adjusting andscrewing this?
Speaker 2 (07:36):
up for everybody.
I'm just assuming, and you knowwhat that means I thought
somebody told you, didn't you?
Well, I thought somebody elsedid say that, but I mean she did
say that, but I don't know Aworker.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I don't know if A rumor If somebody told her that
Is this Facebook?
No, did you get this onFacebook?
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I did not get that on Facebook.
Everything on Facebook's true,though, so If I saw it, Well, no
.
Everything on.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
TikTok is oh Facebook half of it's true?
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Oh, okay.
So anyway, I had to go to thegrocery store, since it's just
me and no, no, no, no, no, youknow I'm not going to Walmart.
I went to the local grocerystore, since it's just me and
you this week.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Just me and you.
Where's Nicholas?
Just me and you.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
He left.
He left For a week.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
He left.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Left today for Texas.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
He gone.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
On a mission trip with our church.
He gone, so that's good.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
So, anyway, I was just going for a couple of
things.
I wanted some corn dogs, jodyneeded drinks and I needed
drinks.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Do you want to guess how much I?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
spent well, I got drinks well, no, but basically
dogs.
A little box of corn dogs.
I usually get the big box.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Well, that's usually because nicholas is here, but so
I know, but it's hard to whensomebody says I hardly bought
anything and it was a hundreddollars.
We really I need to see like anitemized list a A lot to look
like.
I know that it's a lot.
I know I bought like six itemsa couple of days ago and it was
$35 at Walmart and that was justfor us to snack on or whatever
(09:13):
and it was crazy and I know it'sgoing to be that way.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
You mean that was for Nicholas to take, because I
didn't see no snacks?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Why are we shocked when we go?
Oh my goodness, because.
Why are we shocked when we go?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
oh my goodness, we know, because I really wasn't
going for this stuff.
We're picking the stuff up,we're buying it.
We know that's why I don't goto Walmart, because if I go in
Walmart I buy more stuff.
So I don't go to Walmart.
I like what I like and I put itin my cart and they're supposed
to bring it out to me.
And now they're not doing itand I'm upset.
(09:51):
So I went to get a Pepsi andsome cherry Coke and some
hamburger meat and some corndogs and I be daggum.
Little Debbie drug me in had toget some Little Debbie stuff.
Is that all I got?
Extra Hamburger meat, littleDebbie buns.
I bought some stuff for churchtomorrow.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
but that that wouldn't five dollars, probably
72, later 72 dollars I know andlike I had a point I was making
and then and, like we, I canmake that food last a day.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
It was a big thing of hamburger meat so I can split
that.
Corn dogs is one meal.
Oh, I bought a rotisseriechicken.
I thought those used to be fivedollars this one was $7.99.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
You made it sound like you didn't hardly get
nothing now.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I didn't.
You didn't get more to it, Ididn't.
I used to could do that.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
This is ridiculous Anyway back to Walmart, the
whole online ordering Coffee.
I bought coffee To me.
Well, there you go.
It's probably $12 for thecoffee.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
It was not, it was on sale.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I'm just saying there you go.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Well, stop drinking coffee.
Yeah, I know You're the onlyone that drinks.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
All right, let me try this one more time.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I need the other coffee, I need the next one.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
So Walmart having their online orders?
It seems to me like you'rehurting yourself because you're
not getting people inside thestore.
You're depending a lot of yoursales on impulse items.
Yeah, your sales on impulseitems, yeah.
And then, hey, I didn't mean to, I wasn't planning on buying
this, but I came across it.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
It's up here at the register or whatever.
I pick it up and I'm buying it.
So they're losing out on thoseimpulse items.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah, because I can't tell you the last time I went
in Walmart.
Jody goes in three Walmartsevery week, some of them twice a
week.
That's because he works it.
But I'm not going in Walmartanymore.
I don't know.
I just can't take it.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
But I'm in there early enough that it's not like
a Friday evening or a Saturdaythat you know it's covered up
with people.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yep, so that's what I got I probably think of
something else.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Well, when I unloaded it, it was like five bags.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I know that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
That's all it was you said you went and bought
groceries for the week and itwas five bags.
I'm thinking to myself we mightstruggle this week.
Yeah, our refrigerator is aslow as it's ever been it is low
for like the last two months.
It's never really been builtback up.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
I think I'm still scared.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Well, y'all won't tell me any ideas, and I get
tired of the same old stuff, soI'm just not packing it out.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I don't want to spend a lot of money on groceries,
but then again I start thinkinglike but you think we eat out
twice a week.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Well, that's just the weekend.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
But we talk about the grid going down or something
like that.
You put us in a situation wheretwo days.
We're in trouble.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Our pantry is good Two days.
Our pantry is halfway decent.
I'm breaking in my neighbor'shouse getting in their pantry
getting canned goods.
The pantry is halfway decent.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
That's what you think .
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Because Nicholas won't eat none of that stuff.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
We don't have as many noodles as we used to.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Nicholas won't eat none of that stuff, you know my
philosophy.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
You got to have noodles because when the grid
goes down, if you can cooknoodles and put a little bit of
sauce on there, you got you somecarbs.
You can survive.
I don't think we're going to domuch surviving if something
happens tonight.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
We got plenty.
We got four days.
Because Nicholas ain't here,I'm going to have to start
fishing tomorrow.
Well, I mean, you got ducks,you got turtle, we can make some
turtle soup.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
What about these cats out here?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Squirrel, squirrel dumplings.
You ever had squirrel dumplings?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I've had squirrel.
I haven't had squirreldumplings.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
My pop used to make squirrel dumplings.
Your pop almost had.
Jody dumplings too one time wetalked about that didn't we?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
I don't know I think so, did we?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Yeah, when you was in the garden and the rabbit was
out there and he shot, yeah hejust wheeled around there and
started taking pot shots and Ihad to duck and jump.
I said jump and duck at thesame time.
You had to tuck and run.
I had to.
I had to roll.
Tuck and roll, I had to roll.
You can't tuck and run, can you?
I had to get out of the way.
Oh Pop, it was his birthday theother day.
Miss that guy Miss that oldfeller.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
So we would survive because Nicholas ain't here.
We got plenty of time we wouldnot survive.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
We would.
I used to stay on top ofgetting ready just in case
something happened.
Covid really got me into where.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Hey, that's good, then I ran out of room.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
I know, let's just get a little bit prepared.
Well, we didn't have like a.
You make it sound like we had awhole room dedicated to
survival stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
We did.
No, we had a whole room fortoilet paper, a whole room for
paper towels.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
We slowly built that up.
We had a stack.
We didn up.
We had a stack.
We didn't have a whole room,but no, if something happened,
we're in trouble like everybodyelse.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
No, we're not wait.
What are you?
Speaker 1 (14:50):
thinking we got enough.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
And how long we got a month worth if you did a month
you have lost your mind if youdon't hoard it you gotta just
eat little you can't eat just tofill up, fill up, fill up you.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
I'm going to go walk in there and do a little count.
I'm going to take inventorywhile you're talking.
I'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Okay, yeah, whatever, you're not funny.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Be back in a minute.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Get your butt back on .
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah, you don't understand.
I don't know.
I don't know why people don'tunderstand.
They think they're all right,we'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I can eat once a day and be fine, drink your water.
You'll have to go out there andfilter us some water out the
lake.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Water I'm not worried about that's not a problem.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
We got squirrel and we got duck, you think a month.
Yeah, I think you only need toeat once a day.
If you got a ration, it's oncea day.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
You're eating once a day.
When we did the survivalepisode on the other podcast, we
had talked about the crankradio that you can plug your
phone in and charge and stufflike that, and I said I was
going to look at them and I wasgoing to get one and I still
hadn't done it and that's been amonth now.
You don't.
Cell towers are down, you can'tuse your phone still might be a
(16:13):
good life.
You got the flashlight on thething you need might be a good
life oh, I'm good with gettingrid of technology.
I just don't want to think aboutwhat's going to happen tomorrow
, because today we run out offood you mean like yesterday
when all the microsoft all wentdown.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
You got up and couldn't get your handheld going
I did was that yesterday?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
I've always said we rely too much on technology.
That's gonna be our downfallwas that thursday or friday?
That was friday, I can'tremember, and that's my
understanding they're still.
Some companies are stillfeeling it and I don't know what
in the airports?
Aren't they still dealing withthe airlines?
Speaker 2 (16:49):
a little bit of them canceled, just a little bit, I
think, maybe I don't know, ohwell, no, oh well, I don't know,
I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Good thing I don't fly.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Yeah, alright, so what?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
you gonna do when we all go to electric cars because
they make us and then the gridgoes down.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I ain't going no electric car.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
You ain't gonna have a choice.
They can't make me do nothing.
Mr Government's gonna make you.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
They can't make me do nothing, mr.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Government's going to make you?
Speaker 2 (17:14):
They can't make me do nothing.
That's what you think.
They can't make me do nothing.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I would want to be talking about the grid going
down.
Forget that.
But I wouldn't want to be 100%off the grid.
I want solar.
I'd like to have solar panels.
You know what I'm saying?
Yep, I'd like to be completelyfree of all that cut me loose
from the power company.
Still have to pay property tax,still have to pay insurance all
(17:46):
that though, wouldn't?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
you can't get rid of that right how come we're
talking and then you just hearsome words and then a song pops
in your head.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We just talked about that.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
No, we talked about when you hear a song.
I'm talking about whensomebody's talking and then they
say a set of words and thenyou're like, oh boom, that's
like a song.

It says Dandridge.
I don't see Gatlinburg.
Which way is Gatlinburg?
It's right, is it on the otherside of Gatlinburg?
Speaker 1 (22:07):
You know, if you probably tap on that right there
, it would take you there andwe'd know Cat attack.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Sneak attack.
Look at that cat.
He's crouching down.
He's about to go for a squirrel.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
He's about to get a squirrel, Go squirrel.
He's about to go Squirrel.
The cat hasn't moved yet.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
He's still hunched down.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
He's bedded down.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
We had to save a duck and a squirrel from a cat
that's about to attack them Idon't want a cat to get squirrel
oh, it might be right in pigeonforge well, that's the way it
made it sound so how long has itbeen open?
And we've never been there, areyou?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
kidding me.
Well, it just says it's new, sooh, it did say it's new tell us
the pictures.
You just said look at thepictures, but tell us what it is
I did tell you.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
I said it's a big old bean, and then you have your
picture made with uh, what's hisname?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
the dog or what the guy what guy the guy the bushes
baked beans guy is it a statueor is he like there all the time
?
Speaker 2 (23:08):

Who wants to have a picturewith a cardboard cutout of
somebody?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I don't know.
I want to get a picture of thebig bean and roll, but the bean,
beautiful bean, what?
Speaker 1 (23:32):
side.
That bean is probably the sizeof a car, is it not?
Speaker 2 (23:37):
A Volkswagen.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Yeah, we'll say a Volkswagen, but it looks like
it's gold.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
It does.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
It doesn't look like a good color for a bean.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
You don't think so.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Mm-mm.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (23:49):
I think I'll pass.
I just don't think that wouldbe interesting.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Is she going to take me to the little baby?
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I'm just saying, if you go, all right.
So if you go in there, what are?
Speaker 2 (23:58):
you just reading.
Well, if hey, we started makingup there.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Okay, I wouldn't make a secret recipe came from
granny may and 110 years ago.
And then you just show apicture of what the factory
looked like and then boom, Imean now we're leaving.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
We paid 12.99.
12.99, that's probably cheap ifyou're up there, I would go.
I wouldn't make a special triplike I want to make a special
trip to the little debbie yeah,I wouldn't make a special trip,
but I'm just saying, if we ifI'm that far from it and I know
it's there and I'm inchattanooga, I mean let's say
it's not chattanooga pigeonforge let's say it's downtown
Gatlinburg.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
You're walking the strip, I'm going and it's on the
side.
I don't know if I am or not.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
It's got to be better than Earthquake.
We rode in our honeymoon.
Earthquake is terrible.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Absolutely horrible.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
That was funny.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
There was like an ape , like a monkey suit, like it
was supposed to scare you orsomething on the earthquake ride
, and it was so generic, it waslike 1960s, it was bad.
Everything was like nothing wasmodern.
I don't know how you taught meinto it.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Well, this was in 1998.
Yeah, well, still but yeah,earthquake, that was our first
ride together, huh.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I think it's just like Ripley's, believe it or Not
.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
It's going to be something likethat.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I wouldn't go back to that because it seemed like it
was $30 a person.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
I think it was.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
And the last time we went into it I think me and
Nicholas did and I'm like, oncewe got in there, I'm like you
know, this is the same thing.
Five years ago we went into andI don't think anything has
changed.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
To me, once you've been down the strip of
Gatlinburg, it's basically allthe same thing.
They don't change it up enough.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
But they don't have to.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I guess they don't.
I mean because they theybooming every time you go it's
just like a restaurant yeah, Iguess you go back, you just said
we wouldn't go back in ripley's, believe it or not, but I'll
tell you where I would go backin gatlinburg tell me pigeon
forge.
Oh, I think this one's pigeonforge ain't it?
Speaker 1 (26:10):
I don't know but tell me the wax museum one's pigeon
forage, ain't it?
I don't know but tell me thewax museum.
The wax museum was good, it wasawesome.
It was really amazing howrealistic that these and not
just realistic, I guess you'dsay, but you could walk up to
these because you walk allaround these- oh yeah, and you
can put some things on like theywore or something.
If you looked at the face onthese and all that.
(26:32):
If you looked at the, the hair,the fine hair, facial hair.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
How did they do that?
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Anything, eyebrows, just everything on.
It looks so real.
It was amazing.
So do they AI, generate it andthen draw it out like that no, I
wouldn't call it AI on this,because this has been several
years ago.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Oh well, that's true.
Now, ai is hot and heavy,that's true?
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Uh-oh, I think it were done the old-fashioned way.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Drawn out People actually designed it.
Actually designed it, maybesculpted?
Speaker 1 (27:06):
it, I guess, yeah, you can't trust nothing now.
Everything's going to be AI.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
No, so I started watching a show.
We everything's gonna be.
Yeah, yeah, no.
So I started watching a show.
We've watched this show foryears.
Jody has kind of disowned itthrough the years because it's
has gotten crazy and it justanyway.
Um, so it's it's called bigbrother.
I don't know if y'all watch itor whatever, but so this it's on
(27:31):
c.
Yeah, this season they done agenerated person and the people
first come in and eight peoplecome in first and then they put
them in a box and they say OK,you're going to get to vote if
you want another person in here.
And I forgot what her name was,so they pulled her up on the
(27:55):
screen.
She looks just like a girl,like, just like real, like she's
real, and she tells them aboutherself and what she does and
that she really wants to be inthe house and they get to vote
her yes or no.
And everybody votes her nobecause everybody's like well,
(28:22):
that's just one more personthat's got to be in here, that
we got to get them out, and sothen, um, when they vote or no,
then she comes on and tells themthat she is ai generated and
she will be in the house so whatwas the deal with voting the?
They wanted to see if the peoplecould tell or would do it or
whatever.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Well, they should have known, though, that you're
not going to want another person.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Well, I don't know.
I mean, some people voted yes.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Oh, I thought you meant it was overwhelmingly.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I actually think the first crew was four and four.
Four voted yes and four votedno crew was um four and four.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Four voted yes and four voted no.
But so I saw it's uh I guessit's the chinese version on the
uh where they had a picture of aloved one that had passed away,
like a grandma or grandpa, andthen a picture of a loved one
that was still alive, and thenunderneath it it had the same
picture and the picturesunderneath.
All of a sudden they came tolife and they crossed over into
(29:23):
each other's picture and theyhugged one another.
And the bottom pictures were AIgenerated off of the real
pictures, and you could not tellthat that was, you know,
engineered or whatever.
It looked so real but youcouldn't tell the difference
that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
How do you know anything is real anymore?
Speaker 1 (29:44):
I don't know it this I'm telling you it's gonna have
to get to the point to wherethere's gonna be regulations, to
where, if you put a video outthere, if it's on YouTube or
Instagram or Facebook orwhatever it is you're rolling it
out there trying to make peoplethink that it's real.
There's going to have to besome kind of disclaimer or
something on the bottom of thescreen that lets you know that
(30:05):
it's.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
AI, I think on TikTok .
It says is this made orgenerated with AI?
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Yeah, it is.
Somewhere it does made orgenerated with ai.
Yeah, somewhere it does.
And then you know, on tiktok,when uh on the I tried to post
something for the podcast, I hadai generate a, uh, a social
media content about a episode,you know, and it did.
It sounded perfect and so Iwent into tiktok, downloaded to
(30:34):
it.
And then next thing I know ittells me I've gone against
community guide.
Yeah, community guidelines,because I used ai technology
that's because it's run by.
Yeah, I knows but I mean itwasn't but it's nothing but it.
I mean it was just some contentabout what the episode was
about.
It was nothing.
And then you flip through thereand I watched an alligator eat
a dog.
You know it caught a dog on theside of a pond.
(30:55):
I'm like I get that's okay,yeah, but I can't.
But since I used ai to thinkfor me on a post, I can't do
that.
So that's right take that, jodyall right, jody, what you got
your turn I've put 50 or maybe60% into this episode so far.
I'll let you have the firstfive minutes and I've taken 18
(31:18):
more minutes.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
I've had the first 20 minutes.
Whatever, whatever.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
It's just about time you take lead on this thing.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
This is your thing.
This is your baby.
I can't be in charge of it.
I love to be in charge ofeverything.
Go ahead.

sunroom.

You closed the door, oh, I know.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
You closed the door.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
He just forgot that he had it open when I pulled him
away.

want to hear that excuse.
Only I can use that excuse.
Speaker 1 (32:51):

We had a good lunch today, mykind of lunch.
I didn't have to worry ifNicholas would eat it or not,
right?
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
Rotisserie chicken.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
That was good.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Macaroni and cheese.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
It's really good.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Which Nicholas don't like now, for some reason, he
likes shells and cheese andthat's it.
He's completely off themacaroni and cheese I don't know
, I'm done with him and fieldpeas he won't eat that either.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
He's gotten real picky, I mean if it's pizza or
chicken.
Speaker 2 (35:32):
Dinobites.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Yeah, that's what I mean Chicken, that's about about
it.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
That's about all he used to eat sandwiches all the
time I know he'll say buy somelunch meat and bread this week,
two months later, the pack oflunch meat is still in there,
not even been open.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
I know I do that too.
I'm bad about it oh it's likebread.
It's like when you don't haveit.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
You wish you had it they'll be like why don't you
got it?
Well, because last time Ibought it it said in there for
same thing with milk, yeah, soyep, milk is just not something
we use a lot.
But it's cheaper to buy thegallon than it is.
The half a gallon what?
Speaker 1 (36:11):
What's the price of milk?
Is milk expensive right now?
Speaker 2 (36:15):
$4?
.
Is it Three, something maybe, Idon't know.
I don't know.
I just put it in my cart and Idon't look at it the price
because I'm going to buy itanyway, right.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Spencer told me that in Canada they put their milk in
bags.
They don't have it in plasticcontainers.
Because we were talking aboutin Honduras when I was there.
You buy water and it's in bags.
And then he said in Canada theyhave it in bags.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
So he's been to Canada.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
No.
He just knew that they hadtheirs in bags why?
I don't know.
I guess the cost is cheaper.
But to me, I thought, water'sone thing.
If you bust a hole in it,you're not losing much on your
cost as a company Right Now.
Milk is a different story.
You put milk in a bag and youbust it open.
(37:06):
It's a little bit moreexpensive.
You don't want to be wastefulon that, so to me it looks like
you would want it in a jug, soif you bust, is it in little
bags.
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (37:16):
I need more information on this.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
Talk and I'll look it up.
Speaker 2 (37:19):

Yeah, it's a mess, so I've gotto hurry and get that done.
But what I wanted to do wasI've got a table up in my
building.
I made it into a workbench, butit's a tabletop from an old
restaurant and it's got.
You know, people have carvedtheir names into it, it's got
gum under it, it's got some gumand there's probably 60 year old
(39:29):
gum that's under and all thatstuff.
And I thought and I bought itat a like an estate sale for ten
dollars and this is a you wereso excited about that purchase
it was a hey, oh, it's so heavy.
It's just a tabletop and it's soheavy.
So I used two by fours and allthat and I, uh, framed it out
and I made a workbench out of it.
Now I want to stain the two byfours that's surrounding it and
(39:52):
the legs and I want it to be thetable top.
I want to use it as the tablefor the podcasting.
The thing is yeah, you've lostyour mind.
No, it would be perfect.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
It would be perfect you have lost your it's tall
yeah, I know do you know howshort I am?
Speaker 1 (40:07):
No, I'm not, we would have to get yeah seats for it.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I don't do tall seats because my legs dangle.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
I think this would be a very neat, my legs dangle.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
I know, but this would be a very neat table to
have my legs dangle and I go tosleep.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
I've got the little cross pieces on the table,
though that if I put my feet, onit.
No, you'd be fine, but anyway,what I'm saying is on that table
.
I could drill holes in it andwe could put the boom arms on it
, and it'd be perfect.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Jody you got distracted.
You're supposed to be lookingup the milk.
I know I'm still looking at it.
You gotta look up the milk yougot me excited.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
I was talking about the room.
The only problem is is thattable.
I can't squeeze it into thehouse.
To get it into that room, oh my.
So I'd have to take like partsof it off.
So that would be a majorundertaking, but it would look
(41:03):
so good.
You don't think staining it andthen put a gloss on it.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
I don't like the color of that tabletop.
It's ugly.
It's fine, it is ugly, allright.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
If I can think about it, I'm going to go up in the
build.
I'm going to take a picture ofit.
It's ugly Now.
It's going to have some toolsand stuff on it, so I'm not
going to clear off the top of itjust for the picture.
So it's going to be a littlemessy.
Well, you've, if I stain the2x4s that surround this, framed
(41:29):
it out if it would look good asa table.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
It's ugly brown.
Speaker 1 (41:34):
For a podcast.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
It's ugly brown.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
All right, All right.
So the title of this?
This is from an article calledEater.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
Really.
Speaker 1 (41:46):
Eater E-A-T-E-R Milk in bags explained.
Why does dairy in america stillshun the milk bladder, when
it's commonplace in so manyother countries?
It's talking about a bag.
They're calling it a milkbladder, all right.
The average american in theunited states drank about 17
(42:07):
gallons of milk last year.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
Good night, that doesn't include me we're not
average, then no, because wedon't drink that.
I might have had a pint.
Jody definitely doesn't drinkmilk.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
And whether whole, skim, 2% or even chocolate milk.
So all of them include evenchocolate milk.
Chances are that milk came in aplastic jug or a paper carton.
You don't find milk in a papercarton as much as you used to
Just buttermilk, let's see.
But hop over the border toCanada and the story is very
(42:40):
different.
In certain regions, mainly inthe country's eastern half,
consumers favor milk sold infloppy plastic pouches.
The concept might seem odd tothose who didn't grow up
drinking bagged milk, but toroughly half of Canadian milk
(43:01):
consumers the milk bladder is away of life.
It's estimated that 75 to 85percent of Ontario residents
purchase their milk in a pouch.
But Canadians aren't the onlydairy drinkers reaping a sack
milk.
I just don't like that.
I know People in India, china,israel, russia, ukraine, iran.
Speaker 2 (43:19):
Colombia.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
Uruguay, argentina, hungary, south Africa and even
some parts of the US drink milkin bags.
Let me finish this sentence,which some argue is a more
economical and environmentallyfriendly packaging style.
Go ahead, amanda, I forget.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
So is it like a Ziploc bag you can zip it back
up.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
I don't know.
Do you want me to continuereading?
Speaker 2 (43:46):
Not really, I don't Okay.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
Then we'll never know , maybe.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
Do you know how to skim an article?
Just skim it.
Speaker 1 (43:52):
There's no skimming, you gotta skim it, no.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
You gotta skim it.
Speaker 1 (43:58):
I'm looking, I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
I'm looking.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
Let's see Plastic milk bladders adapted more
easily to the new metricstandards and thus gained an
edge in some parts of thecanadian market okay how do you
drink milk out of a bag, you ask.
Bagged milk is uh solid.
And oh, excuse me, it's sold.
And I was gonna say why is itsolid?
Yeah, bagged milk is sold inloose pouches ranging from half
(44:27):
a liter to 1.33 liters,depending on the country.
In Canada's case, the milkcomes in a larger package
stuffed with three bladdersadding up to four liters.
Because the bags aren't rigidlike a bottle, some bag milk
fans argue that they're easierto store in the refrigerator.
The trade-off, of course, isthat they're unwildly Unwildly
(44:54):
what and can't be refilled afteropening.
I don't know, maybe that's amisprint.
To use the plastic bladder,consumers generally purchase a
special reusable pitcher andplace the unopened bag inside in
a corner facing the poor spout.
So does that explain it?
Speaker 2 (45:12):
So basically, it's like hey buy the bladder, but
hey you gotta buy a container,you gotta put it in a container
to put it in, so that makes nosense.
Speaker 1 (45:19):
So you're buying it in a bag, but you're putting it
in a container when you get home.
Speaker 2 (45:22):
You're putting it in a tea pitcher.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (45:26):
A milk pitcher, so just put it in a bottle or a jug
Excuse me, a milk jug.
Speaker 1 (45:37):
But it's saying right here that it's not quite sure
if it's environmentallyfriendlier than the plastic
container.
So if that's what you're goingfor, but I guess I think it's
more of a cost thing If I canput it in a plastic, I think
it's more of a cost thing, if Ican put it in a plastic bag.
It's going to be cheaper.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
Yeah, if it's a little bit more.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
I don't want milk in a bag?
Speaker 2 (45:58):
I don't either, but I bet you can get a coater.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
Don't you think you can get a coater in a bag?
Speaker 2 (46:03):
We really only use milk to cook with Nicholas eats
cereal.
Speaker 1 (46:08):
Yeah, milk to cook with nicholas eats cereal, yeah,
but he don't, he don't do muchof that anymore.
Speaker 2 (46:10):
No, me and you don't really.
Speaker 1 (46:14):
I think I just used it to cook with shout out to
spencer for giving me that, uh,information about the milk
bladder.
All right, all right, we gottago.
You know why?
Because the battery on thisrecorder is almost dead, and if
it dies during the recording, welose everything that we've
recorded.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
It's all red.
Why is it all red?
Is it always all?
Speaker 1 (46:36):
red.
Yeah, those are always red.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (46:39):
And these right here are red because I muted these
mic openings.
Speaker 2 (46:43):
Your cat's about to eat your dog food.

Right here, this wind isblowing.
We're sitting back outside.
This is perfect temperature togrill, which somebody is, and
I'm about to go seek it outbecause it smells really good.
Sit out here at the fire pit.
(02:29):
We should have the fire litright now.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I do have a fire going back behind us.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Well, I saw that, but I mean our real thing, you know

Speaker 1 (02:39):
I could.
I can build a fire anytime.
You just got to tell me.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I know, I know, that scares me a little bit why,
because you can build a fireanytime.
You like to play in fire, youlike to get burnt by fires, you
like to get the cops called onyou because you burn when you're
not supposed to burn.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Well, you gotta do what you gotta do that's another
subject, that's a story foranother day, story for another
day, have we not?
Speaker 2 (03:04):
a story for another day, have we not?
Speaker 1 (03:05):
told that story?
No, we haven't.
Oh, okay, and I don't feel liketelling it now.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Sorry, jody, don't want to relive that one no.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
At 12 o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yeah, that was a late night, early morning for me,
that was crazy, all because hewas doing something he wasn't
supposed to, supposed tosomebody.
Just don't like him.
And they called two cops.
Anyway, we ain't going there.
Four firefighters, stay tuned,we'll go back there one day, all
right, here's just anotherthing that I was thinking about.
(03:36):
So you didn't like my joke.
You didn't know the answer tomy question you just took me by
surprise.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
If you tell it another one, I might laugh, but
you don't have to look one up,that's fine, you should have
laughed.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
No matter, you should laugh at all my corny jokes.
I can't claim that when I sawit somewhere, all right.
So when you hear a jingle or asong on a commercial or
something like that, does itstay in your head forever?
Not forever for a long timesometimes you just go humming it
(04:09):
and singing it or whatever.
Why is that?
Speaker 1 (04:12):
why why is it?
It's just like you just can'tquit well, why is it that you
think of a song or somethinglike that that you haven't heard
in a long time, and you've gotit on your mind, and then you
turn the radio on and bam it'splaying well, like why is that?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I was scrolling and then you started singing the
song five minutes after I wasalready scrolled by that song.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
What was it?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I always feel like somebody's watching me.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Who sings that?
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I really don't know.
I'm sure you do, I know, Idon't know.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I know Michael Jackson does like the background
.
That part of it I always feellike somebody's watching me.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
What's the next words ?
Dun dun, dun, dun, dun dun.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Whoa, that's all I know of it.
Okay, that's all I got, so you?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
saw that on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Saw what.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
That song, or you heard it.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
No, I was scrolling somewhere just before we came on
.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Is that why I sang it , and then you started singing
it.
Okay, yes, okay.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, so it was on my phone before we came on.
Yeah, that's why.
That's why you started singingit.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
So it was like a subliminal thing because I
didn't even realize I heard it.
I just started singing it, yep,it was.
Oh, another thing, I did say arandom thought.
I've got a list of psychologyquestions and one of them says
that there's no such thing assubliminal messages, yet
(05:39):
companies use it.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
All the time?
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah, just I guess, in case.
Maybe I don't know, but it'sbeen proven that it's not true.
Bologna.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I found that they don't know squat.
Well, that's Nicholas.
He's got to take that psychcollege class.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Is he taking psychology?
Supposed to, is he?
Well, if he's supposed to, Iguess he will, won't he?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
I guess.
So We'll see All right.
Another thought I just had.
I'm just all over the place,just got to deal with me Tell me
Got to deal with me today, so Iwent to the grocery store a
while ago.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Is this a joke or are we true?
Laughing at you?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
No, we true laughing at you.
I went to the grocery storebecause when I try to buy
groceries I don't like going tothe grocery store.
I like to do Walmart pickup.
I like to put my groceries inmy cart, I like them to bring
them to my cart and I don't wantto go in there.
I don't like it.
So for some reason you can'tget freezer stuff anymore on
(06:36):
your grocery pickup.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Walmart, or at least I can't yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Walmart, so I went to the local grocery store Hold up
, hold up.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
So I went to the local grocery store.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Hold up why you can't get any frozen stuff at all.
It always tells me I can't.
And you know, nicholas, he'sgot to have his Dinobots, so
I've been having to make himtake a look.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
What's the reason for that?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I guess it's the weather, I guess it's too hot
and people check in 30 minutesbefore they get there and then
people were complaining.
Maybe I really don't know andpeople were complaining.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
maybe I really don't know.
So are they saying that Walmartis having to order the stuff
and it's melting out there onthe sidewalk waiting on them to?
Speaker 2 (07:09):
get there.
Is that what they're trying tosay?
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It don't work that way though.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Well, I don't know.
That's the only thing I canfigure.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Because don't they have it in their log?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Well, they do, but if you check in till I get there,
was this a problem last summer?
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I don't remember it being a problem no, I've never
had a problem with it so if yougot two or three yahoos, that's
complaining about it.
Why are we adjusting andscrewing this?
Speaker 2 (07:36):
up for everybody.
I'm just assuming, and you knowwhat that means I thought
somebody told you, didn't you?
Well, I thought somebody elsedid say that, but I mean she did
say that, but I don't know Aworker.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I don't know if A rumor If somebody told her that
Is this Facebook?
No, did you get this onFacebook?
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I did not get that on Facebook.
Everything on Facebook's true,though, so If I saw it, Well, no
.
Everything on.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
TikTok is oh Facebook half of it's true?
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Oh, okay.
So anyway, I had to go to thegrocery store, since it's just
me and no, no, no, no, no, youknow I'm not going to Walmart.
I went to the local grocerystore, since it's just me and
you this week.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Just me and you.
Where's Nicholas?
Just me and you.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Who knows?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
He left.
He left For a week.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
He left.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Left today for Texas.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
He gone.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
On a mission trip with our church.
He gone, so that's good.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
So, anyway, I was just going for a couple of
things.
I wanted some corn dogs, jodyneeded drinks and I needed
drinks.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Do you want to guess how much I?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
spent well, I got drinks well, no, but basically
dogs.
A little box of corn dogs.
I usually get the big box.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Well, that's usually because nicholas is here, but so
I know, but it's hard to whensomebody says I hardly bought
anything and it was a hundreddollars.
We really I need to see like anitemized list a A lot to look
like.
I know that it's a lot.
I know I bought like six itemsa couple of days ago and it was
$35 at Walmart and that was justfor us to snack on or whatever
(09:13):
and it was crazy and I know it'sgoing to be that way.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
You mean that was for Nicholas to take, because I
didn't see no snacks?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Why are we shocked when we go?
Oh my goodness, because.
Why are we shocked when we go?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
oh my goodness, we know, because I really wasn't
going for this stuff.
We're picking the stuff up,we're buying it.
We know that's why I don't goto Walmart, because if I go in
Walmart I buy more stuff.
So I don't go to Walmart.
I like what I like and I put itin my cart and they're supposed
to bring it out to me.
And now they're not doing itand I'm upset.
(09:51):
So I went to get a Pepsi andsome cherry Coke and some
hamburger meat and some corndogs and I be daggum.
Little Debbie drug me in had toget some Little Debbie stuff.
Is that all I got?
Extra Hamburger meat, littleDebbie buns.
I bought some stuff for churchtomorrow.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
but that that wouldn't five dollars, probably
72, later 72 dollars I know andlike I had a point I was making
and then and, like we, I canmake that food last a day.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
It was a big thing of hamburger meat so I can split
that.
Corn dogs is one meal.
Oh, I bought a rotisseriechicken.
I thought those used to be fivedollars this one was $7.99.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
You made it sound like you didn't hardly get
nothing now.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I didn't.
You didn't get more to it, Ididn't.
I used to could do that.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
This is ridiculous Anyway back to Walmart, the
whole online ordering Coffee.
I bought coffee To me.
Well, there you go.
It's probably $12 for thecoffee.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
It was not, it was on sale.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I'm just saying there you go.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Well, stop drinking coffee.
Yeah, I know You're the onlyone that drinks.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
All right, let me try this one more time.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I need the other coffee, I need the next one.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
So Walmart having their online orders?
It seems to me like you'rehurting yourself because you're
not getting people inside thestore.
You're depending a lot of yoursales on impulse items.
Yeah, your sales on impulseitems, yeah.
And then, hey, I didn't mean to, I wasn't planning on buying
this, but I came across it.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
It's up here at the register or whatever.
I pick it up and I'm buying it.
So they're losing out on thoseimpulse items.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah, because I can't tell you the last time I went
in Walmart.
Jody goes in three Walmartsevery week, some of them twice a
week.
That's because he works it.
But I'm not going in Walmartanymore.
I don't know.
I just can't take it.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
But I'm in there early enough that it's not like
a Friday evening or a Saturdaythat you know it's covered up
with people.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yep, so that's what I got I probably think of
something else.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Well, when I unloaded it, it was like five bags.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I know that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
That's all it was you said you went and bought
groceries for the week and itwas five bags.
I'm thinking to myself we mightstruggle this week.
Yeah, our refrigerator is aslow as it's ever been it is low
for like the last two months.
It's never really been builtback up.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
I think I'm still scared.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Well, y'all won't tell me any ideas, and I get
tired of the same old stuff, soI'm just not packing it out.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I don't want to spend a lot of money on groceries,
but then again I start thinkinglike but you think we eat out
twice a week.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Well, that's just the weekend.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
But we talk about the grid going down or something
like that.
You put us in a situation wheretwo days.
We're in trouble.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Our pantry is good Two days.
Our pantry is halfway decent.
I'm breaking in my neighbor'shouse getting in their pantry
getting canned goods.
The pantry is halfway decent.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
That's what you think .
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Because Nicholas won't eat none of that stuff.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
We don't have as many noodles as we used to.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Nicholas won't eat none of that stuff, you know my
philosophy.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
You got to have noodles because when the grid
goes down, if you can cooknoodles and put a little bit of
sauce on there, you got you somecarbs.
You can survive.
I don't think we're going to domuch surviving if something
happens tonight.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
We got plenty.
We got four days.
Because Nicholas ain't here,I'm going to have to start
fishing tomorrow.
Well, I mean, you got ducks,you got turtle, we can make some
turtle soup.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
What about these cats out here?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Squirrel, squirrel dumplings.
You ever had squirrel dumplings?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I've had squirrel.
I haven't had squirreldumplings.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
My pop used to make squirrel dumplings.
Your pop almost had.
Jody dumplings too one time wetalked about that didn't we?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
I don't know I think so, did we?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Yeah, when you was in the garden and the rabbit was
out there and he shot, yeah hejust wheeled around there and
started taking pot shots and Ihad to duck and jump.
I said jump and duck at thesame time.
You had to tuck and run.
I had to.
I had to roll.
Tuck and roll, I had to roll.
You can't tuck and run, can you?
I had to get out of the way.
Oh Pop, it was his birthday theother day.
Miss that guy Miss that oldfeller.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
So we would survive because Nicholas ain't here.
We got plenty of time we wouldnot survive.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
We would.
I used to stay on top ofgetting ready just in case
something happened.
Covid really got me into where.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Hey, that's good, then I ran out of room.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
I know, let's just get a little bit prepared.
Well, we didn't have like a.
You make it sound like we had awhole room dedicated to
survival stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
We did.
No, we had a whole room fortoilet paper, a whole room for
paper towels.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
We slowly built that up.
We had a stack.
We didn up.
We had a stack.
We didn't have a whole room,but no, if something happened,
we're in trouble like everybodyelse.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
No, we're not wait.
What are you?
Speaker 1 (14:50):
thinking we got enough.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
And how long we got a month worth if you did a month
you have lost your mind if youdon't hoard it you gotta just
eat little you can't eat just tofill up, fill up, fill up you.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
I'm going to go walk in there and do a little count.
I'm going to take inventorywhile you're talking.
I'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Okay, yeah, whatever, you're not funny.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Be back in a minute.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Get your butt back on .
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah, you don't understand.
I don't know.
I don't know why people don'tunderstand.
They think they're all right,we'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I can eat once a day and be fine, drink your water.
You'll have to go out there andfilter us some water out the
lake.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Water I'm not worried about that's not a problem.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
We got squirrel and we got duck, you think a month.
Yeah, I think you only need toeat once a day.
If you got a ration, it's oncea day.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
You're eating once a day.
When we did the survivalepisode on the other podcast, we
had talked about the crankradio that you can plug your
phone in and charge and stufflike that, and I said I was
going to look at them and I wasgoing to get one and I still
hadn't done it and that's been amonth now.
You don't.
Cell towers are down, you can'tuse your phone still might be a
(16:13):
good life.
You got the flashlight on thething you need might be a good
life oh, I'm good with gettingrid of technology.
I just don't want to think aboutwhat's going to happen tomorrow
, because today we run out offood you mean like yesterday
when all the microsoft all wentdown.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
You got up and couldn't get your handheld going
I did was that yesterday?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
I've always said we rely too much on technology.
That's gonna be our downfallwas that thursday or friday?
That was friday, I can'tremember, and that's my
understanding they're still.
Some companies are stillfeeling it and I don't know what
in the airports?
Aren't they still dealing withthe airlines?
Speaker 2 (16:49):
a little bit of them canceled, just a little bit, I
think, maybe I don't know, ohwell, no, oh well, I don't know,
I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Good thing I don't fly.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Yeah, alright, so what?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
you gonna do when we all go to electric cars because
they make us and then the gridgoes down.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I ain't going no electric car.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
You ain't gonna have a choice.
They can't make me do nothing.
Mr Government's gonna make you.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
They can't make me do nothing, mr.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Government's going to make you?
Speaker 2 (17:14):
They can't make me do nothing.
That's what you think.
They can't make me do nothing.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I would want to be talking about the grid going
down.
Forget that.
But I wouldn't want to be 100%off the grid.
I want solar.
I'd like to have solar panels.
You know what I'm saying?
Yep, I'd like to be completelyfree of all that cut me loose
from the power company.
Still have to pay property tax,still have to pay insurance all
(17:46):
that though, wouldn't?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
you can't get rid of that right how come we're
talking and then you just hearsome words and then a song pops
in your head.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We just talked about that.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
No, we talked about when you hear a song.
I'm talking about whensomebody's talking and then they
say a set of words and thenyou're like, oh boom, that's
like a song.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
It's part of the lyrics of a song.
Is that what you're?
Talking about yeah, SquirrelAnyway what else?
Anyway, what's going on thisweek?

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Right.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
We were in silence to see if you could hear the
neighbor's bird.
So we'll see if y'all heard it.

That's right.
Sniff into that mic.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
I know I can't help it, my nose don't start until I
get on here, so deal with it.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I'm about to deal with it, or hang up or I'll quit
.
Hang up or I'll quit.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
It's terrible, I can't help it.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
What else did you say you wanted to talk about?
Speaker 2 (19:03):
You saw something about that was 30 minutes ago I
told you if we didn't go with itright, then I would forget it.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
So I had forgot it.
I was about to tell you whatyou said and then you
interrupted me.

And is that?
Speaker 2 (21:56):
outside Gatlinburg from what you can tell on your
map.
I don't know.
It says Dandridge.
I don't see Gatlinburg.
Which way is Gatlinburg?
It's right, is it on the otherside of Gatlinburg?
Speaker 1 (22:07):
You know, if you probably tap on that right there
, it would take you there andwe'd know Cat attack.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Sneak attack.
Look at that cat.
He's crouching down.
He's about to go for a squirrel.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
He's about to get a squirrel, Go squirrel.
He's about to go Squirrel.
The cat hasn't moved yet.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
He's still hunched down.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
He's bedded down.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
We had to save a duck and a squirrel from a cat
that's about to attack them Idon't want a cat to get squirrel
oh, it might be right in pigeonforge well, that's the way it
made it sound so how long has itbeen open?
And we've never been there, areyou?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
kidding me.
Well, it just says it's new, sooh, it did say it's new tell us
the pictures.
You just said look at thepictures, but tell us what it is
I did tell you.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
I said it's a big old bean, and then you have your
picture made with uh, what's hisname?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
the dog or what the guy what guy the guy the bushes
baked beans guy is it a statueor is he like there all the time

Oh, why can't I make it bigger?
Speaker 1 (23:17):

Who wants to have a picturewith a cardboard cutout of
somebody?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I don't know.
I want to get a picture of thebig bean and roll, but the bean,
beautiful bean, what?
Speaker 1 (23:32):
side.
That bean is probably the sizeof a car, is it not?
Speaker 2 (23:37):
A Volkswagen.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Yeah, we'll say a Volkswagen, but it looks like
it's gold.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
It does.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
It doesn't look like a good color for a bean.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
You don't think so.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Mm-mm.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (23:49):
I think I'll pass.
I just don't think that wouldbe interesting.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Is she going to take me to the little baby?
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I'm just saying, if you go, all right.
So if you go in there, what are?
Speaker 2 (23:58):
you just reading.
Well, if hey, we started makingup there.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Okay, I wouldn't make a secret recipe came from
granny may and 110 years ago.
And then you just show apicture of what the factory
looked like and then boom, Imean now we're leaving.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
We paid 12.99.
12.99, that's probably cheap ifyou're up there, I would go.
I wouldn't make a special triplike I want to make a special
trip to the little debbie yeah,I wouldn't make a special trip,
but I'm just saying, if we ifI'm that far from it and I know
it's there and I'm inchattanooga, I mean let's say
it's not chattanooga pigeonforge let's say it's downtown
Gatlinburg.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
You're walking the strip, I'm going and it's on the
side.
I don't know if I am or not.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
It's got to be better than Earthquake.
We rode in our honeymoon.
Earthquake is terrible.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Absolutely horrible.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
That was funny.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
There was like an ape , like a monkey suit, like it
was supposed to scare you orsomething on the earthquake ride
, and it was so generic, it waslike 1960s, it was bad.
Everything was like nothing wasmodern.
I don't know how you taught meinto it.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Well, this was in 1998.
Yeah, well, still but yeah,earthquake, that was our first
ride together, huh.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I think it's just like Ripley's, believe it or Not
.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
It's going to be something likethat.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I wouldn't go back to that because it seemed like it
was $30 a person.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
I think it was.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
And the last time we went into it I think me and
Nicholas did and I'm like, oncewe got in there, I'm like you
know, this is the same thing.
Five years ago we went into andI don't think anything has
changed.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
To me, once you've been down the strip of
Gatlinburg, it's basically allthe same thing.
They don't change it up enough.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
But they don't have to.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I guess they don't.
I mean because they theybooming every time you go it's
just like a restaurant yeah, Iguess you go back, you just said
we wouldn't go back in ripley's, believe it or not, but I'll
tell you where I would go backin gatlinburg tell me pigeon
forge.
Oh, I think this one's pigeonforge ain't it?
Speaker 1 (26:10):
I don't know but tell me the wax museum one's pigeon
forage, ain't it?
I don't know but tell me thewax museum.
The wax museum was good, it wasawesome.
It was really amazing howrealistic that these and not
just realistic, I guess you'dsay, but you could walk up to
these because you walk allaround these- oh yeah, and you
can put some things on like theywore or something.
If you looked at the face onthese and all that.
(26:32):
If you looked at the, the hair,the fine hair, facial hair.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
How did they do that?
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Anything, eyebrows, just everything on.
It looks so real.
It was amazing.
So do they AI, generate it andthen draw it out like that no, I
wouldn't call it AI on this,because this has been several
years ago.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Oh well, that's true.
Now, ai is hot and heavy,that's true?
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Uh-oh, I think it were done the old-fashioned way.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Drawn out People actually designed it.
Actually designed it, maybesculpted?
Speaker 1 (27:06):
it, I guess, yeah, you can't trust nothing now.
Everything's going to be AI.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
No, so I started watching a show.
We everything's gonna be.
Yeah, yeah, no.
So I started watching a show.
We've watched this show foryears.
Jody has kind of disowned itthrough the years because it's
has gotten crazy and it justanyway.
Um, so it's it's called bigbrother.
I don't know if y'all watch itor whatever, but so this it's on
(27:31):
c.
Yeah, this season they done agenerated person and the people
first come in and eight peoplecome in first and then they put
them in a box and they say OK,you're going to get to vote if
you want another person in here.
And I forgot what her name was,so they pulled her up on the
(27:55):
screen.
She looks just like a girl,like, just like real, like she's
real, and she tells them aboutherself and what she does and
that she really wants to be inthe house and they get to vote
her yes or no.
And everybody votes her nobecause everybody's like well,
(28:22):
that's just one more personthat's got to be in here, that
we got to get them out, and sothen, um, when they vote or no,
then she comes on and tells themthat she is ai generated and
she will be in the house so whatwas the deal with voting the?
They wanted to see if the peoplecould tell or would do it or
whatever.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Well, they should have known, though, that you're
not going to want another person.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Well, I don't know.
I mean, some people voted yes.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Oh, I thought you meant it was overwhelmingly.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I actually think the first crew was four and four.
Four voted yes and four votedno crew was um four and four.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Four voted yes and four voted no.
But so I saw it's uh I guessit's the chinese version on the
uh where they had a picture of aloved one that had passed away,
like a grandma or grandpa, andthen a picture of a loved one
that was still alive, and thenunderneath it it had the same
picture and the picturesunderneath.
All of a sudden they came tolife and they crossed over into
(29:23):
each other's picture and theyhugged one another.
And the bottom pictures were AIgenerated off of the real
pictures, and you could not tellthat that was, you know,
engineered or whatever.
It looked so real but youcouldn't tell the difference
that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
How do you know anything is real anymore?
Speaker 1 (29:44):
I don't know it this I'm telling you it's gonna have
to get to the point to wherethere's gonna be regulations, to
where, if you put a video outthere, if it's on YouTube or
Instagram or Facebook orwhatever it is you're rolling it
out there trying to make peoplethink that it's real.
There's going to have to besome kind of disclaimer or
something on the bottom of thescreen that lets you know that
(30:05):
it's.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
AI, I think on TikTok .
It says is this made orgenerated with AI?
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Yeah, it is.
Somewhere it does made orgenerated with ai.
Yeah, somewhere it does.
And then you know, on tiktok,when uh on the I tried to post
something for the podcast, I hadai generate a, uh, a social
media content about a episode,you know, and it did.
It sounded perfect and so Iwent into tiktok, downloaded to
(30:34):
it.
And then next thing I know ittells me I've gone against
community guide.
Yeah, community guidelines,because I used ai technology
that's because it's run by.
Yeah, I knows but I mean itwasn't but it's nothing but it.
I mean it was just some contentabout what the episode was
about.
It was nothing.
And then you flip through thereand I watched an alligator eat
a dog.
You know it caught a dog on theside of a pond.
(30:55):
I'm like I get that's okay,yeah, but I can't.
But since I used ai to thinkfor me on a post, I can't do
that.
So that's right take that, jodyall right, jody, what you got
your turn I've put 50 or maybe60% into this episode so far.
I'll let you have the firstfive minutes and I've taken 18
(31:18):
more minutes.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
I've had the first 20 minutes.
Whatever, whatever.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
It's just about time you take lead on this thing.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
This is your thing.
This is your baby.
I can't be in charge of it.
I love to be in charge ofeverything.
Go ahead.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Take over, no, take over, no, take it no.
You're doing a good jobFantastic.
I don't use fantastic enough,you're doing a fantastic job.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Word of the day.
You remember word of the day.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I do.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
They used to do that on the radio.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
I don't know, I used to do it.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
We used to do this week.
Since Nicholas ain't here,nothing any different.
We never know he's here anyway,except for we won't hear that
hollering at night time.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
I know that the dogs will get fed on time because
I'll be feeding them.
I know all the lights will beoff doors will get locked lights
will go off somebody won't fallasleep in the recliner watching
TV, which will be him.
Refrigerator doors won't beleft open.
(32:22):
Speaking of.
I know.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
That's why I'm saying it I walk down here and he's
standing outside in therefrigerator down here in the
sunroom.
That's what I'm going to callit.
It's wide open.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Well, that's because I got his attention, because I
asked him something from outsideand he walked away.
You closed the door, oh, I know.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
You closed the door.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
He just forgot that he had it open when I pulled him
away.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
No, he's not old enough to forget, so I don't
want to hear that excuse.
Only I can use that excuse.
Speaker 1 (32:51):

We had a good lunch today, mykind of lunch.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
Rotisserie chicken.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
That was good.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Macaroni and cheese.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
It's really good.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Which Nicholas don't like now, for some reason, he
likes shells and cheese andthat's it.
He's completely off themacaroni and cheese I don't know
, I'm done with him and fieldpeas he won't eat that either.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
He's gotten real picky, I mean if it's pizza or
chicken.
Speaker 2 (35:32):
Dinobites.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Yeah, that's what I mean Chicken, that's about about
it.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
That's about all he used to eat sandwiches all the
time I know he'll say buy somelunch meat and bread this week,
two months later, the pack oflunch meat is still in there,
not even been open.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
I know I do that too.
I'm bad about it oh it's likebread.
It's like when you don't haveit.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
You wish you had it they'll be like why don't you
got it?
Well, because last time Ibought it it said in there for
same thing with milk, yeah, soyep, milk is just not something
we use a lot.
But it's cheaper to buy thegallon than it is.
The half a gallon what?
Speaker 1 (36:11):
What's the price of milk?
Is milk expensive right now?
Speaker 2 (36:15):
$4?
.
Is it Three, something maybe, Idon't know.
I don't know.
I just put it in my cart and Idon't look at it the price
because I'm going to buy itanyway, right.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Spencer told me that in Canada they put their milk in
bags.
They don't have it in plasticcontainers.
Because we were talking aboutin Honduras when I was there.
You buy water and it's in bags.
And then he said in Canada theyhave it in bags.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
So he's been to Canada.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
No.
He just knew that they hadtheirs in bags why?
I don't know.
I guess the cost is cheaper.
But to me, I thought, water'sone thing.
If you bust a hole in it,you're not losing much on your
cost as a company Right Now.
Milk is a different story.
You put milk in a bag and youbust it open.
(37:06):
It's a little bit moreexpensive.
You don't want to be wastefulon that, so to me it looks like
you would want it in a jug, soif you bust, is it in little
bags.
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (37:16):
I need more information on this.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
Talk and I'll look it up.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Can you call Spencer?
Yeah, he's in Texas.
Speaker 1 (37:22):
He's in Texas.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Hey, Spencer, shout out to Spencer.
He's took our youth to Texas.
Speaker 1 (37:29):

No, he's not by himself.
Speaker 2 (37:32):

(37:57):
It's going to be me and Wendyat work.
Oh and Steve, it's going to bea quiet week.
It's going to be nice, I mightget something done.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
All right, I'm going to try not to make noise when
I'm putting my glasses on myreaders, because I found an
article on why.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
You got to put your readers on.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
Yeah, I'm trying not to drop the microphone.
Speaking of readers your newglasses might be here Monday,
that's good, Because when we'resitting up outside I have to
hold the microphone the way I'msitting.
So I try and be as quiet aspossible because any little
that's me moving right there.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
So are you saying you need a boom arm for Christmas?
Speaker 1 (38:31):
Yes, before Christmas , because we're working on the
room.
I worked again on our littlepodcasting room, our little
studio I'm trying to set upToday.
Almost done, I'm done with thefloor, almost done with the one
wall, put a new window inbaseboard.
I still got to do.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
I told him he wouldn't get in that room until
my bedroom was done, but I'm ina hurry now I've got to get this
done and then hopefully I canget most of it done this week.
Yeah you've got to get my houseput back together.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Yeah, it's a mess Because everything I've taken
out of that room.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
I've just it's an mess Because everything I've
taken out of that room.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
I've just it's an 11 room.
Yeah, it's a mess, so I've gotto hurry and get that done.
But what I wanted to do wasI've got a table up in my
building.
I made it into a workbench, butit's a tabletop from an old
restaurant and it's got.
You know, people have carvedtheir names into it, it's got
gum under it, it's got some gumand there's probably 60 year old
(39:29):
gum that's under and all thatstuff.
And I thought and I bought itat a like an estate sale for ten
dollars and this is a you wereso excited about that purchase
it was a hey, oh, it's so heavy.
It's just a tabletop and it's soheavy.
So I used two by fours and allthat and I, uh, framed it out
and I made a workbench out of it.
Now I want to stain the two byfours that's surrounding it and
(39:52):
the legs and I want it to be thetable top.
I want to use it as the tablefor the podcasting.
The thing is yeah, you've lostyour mind.
No, it would be perfect.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
It would be perfect you have lost your it's tall
yeah, I know do you know howshort I am?
Speaker 1 (40:07):
No, I'm not, we would have to get yeah seats for it.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I don't do tall seats because my legs dangle.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
I think this would be a very neat, my legs dangle.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
I know, but this would be a very neat table to
have my legs dangle and I go tosleep.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
I've got the little cross pieces on the table,
though that if I put my feet, onit.
No, you'd be fine, but anyway,what I'm saying is on that table
.
I could drill holes in it andwe could put the boom arms on it
, and it'd be perfect.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Jody you got distracted.
You're supposed to be lookingup the milk.
I know I'm still looking at it.
You gotta look up the milk yougot me excited.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
I was talking about the room.
The only problem is is thattable.
I can't squeeze it into thehouse.
To get it into that room, oh my.
So I'd have to take like partsof it off.
So that would be a majorundertaking, but it would look
(41:03):
so good.
You don't think staining it andthen put a gloss on it.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
I don't like the color of that tabletop.
It's ugly.
It's fine, it is ugly, allright.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
If I can think about it, I'm going to go up in the
build.
I'm going to take a picture ofit.
It's ugly Now.
It's going to have some toolsand stuff on it, so I'm not
going to clear off the top of itjust for the picture.
So it's going to be a littlemessy.
Well, you've, if I stain the2x4s that surround this, framed
(41:29):
it out if it would look good asa table.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
It's ugly brown.
Speaker 1 (41:34):
For a podcast.
Speaker 2 (41:34):
It's ugly brown.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
All right, All right.
So the title of this?
This is from an article calledEater.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
Really.
Speaker 1 (41:46):
Eater E-A-T-E-R Milk in bags explained.
Why does dairy in america stillshun the milk bladder, when
it's commonplace in so manyother countries?
It's talking about a bag.
They're calling it a milkbladder, all right.
The average american in theunited states drank about 17
(42:07):
gallons of milk last year.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
Good night, that doesn't include me we're not
average, then no, because wedon't drink that.
I might have had a pint.
Jody definitely doesn't drinkmilk.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
And whether whole, skim, 2% or even chocolate milk.
So all of them include evenchocolate milk.
Chances are that milk came in aplastic jug or a paper carton.
You don't find milk in a papercarton as much as you used to
Just buttermilk, let's see.
But hop over the border toCanada and the story is very
(42:40):
different.
In certain regions, mainly inthe country's eastern half,
consumers favor milk sold infloppy plastic pouches.
The concept might seem odd tothose who didn't grow up
drinking bagged milk, but toroughly half of Canadian milk
(43:01):
consumers the milk bladder is away of life.
It's estimated that 75 to 85percent of Ontario residents
purchase their milk in a pouch.
But Canadians aren't the onlydairy drinkers reaping a sack
milk.
I just don't like that.
I know People in India, china,israel, russia, ukraine, iran.
Speaker 2 (43:19):
Colombia.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
Uruguay, argentina, hungary, south Africa and even
some parts of the US drink milkin bags.
Let me finish this sentence,which some argue is a more
economical and environmentallyfriendly packaging style.
Go ahead, amanda, I forget.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
So is it like a Ziploc bag you can zip it back
up.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
I don't know.
Do you want me to continuereading?
Speaker 2 (43:46):
Not really, I don't Okay.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
Then we'll never know , maybe.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
Do you know how to skim an article?
Just skim it.
Speaker 1 (43:52):
There's no skimming, you gotta skim it, no.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
You gotta skim it.
Speaker 1 (43:58):
I'm looking, I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
I'm looking.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
Let's see Plastic milk bladders adapted more
easily to the new metricstandards and thus gained an
edge in some parts of thecanadian market okay how do you
drink milk out of a bag, you ask.
Bagged milk is uh solid.
And oh, excuse me, it's sold.
And I was gonna say why is itsolid?
Yeah, bagged milk is sold inloose pouches ranging from half
(44:27):
a liter to 1.33 liters,depending on the country.
In Canada's case, the milkcomes in a larger package
stuffed with three bladdersadding up to four liters.
Because the bags aren't rigidlike a bottle, some bag milk
fans argue that they're easierto store in the refrigerator.
The trade-off, of course, isthat they're unwildly Unwildly
(44:54):
what and can't be refilled afteropening.
I don't know, maybe that's amisprint.
To use the plastic bladder,consumers generally purchase a
special reusable pitcher andplace the unopened bag inside in
a corner facing the poor spout.
So does that explain it?
Speaker 2 (45:12):
So basically, it's like hey buy the bladder, but
hey you gotta buy a container,you gotta put it in a container
to put it in, so that makes nosense.
Speaker 1 (45:19):
So you're buying it in a bag, but you're putting it
in a container when you get home.
Speaker 2 (45:22):
You're putting it in a tea pitcher.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (45:26):
A milk pitcher, so just put it in a bottle or a jug
Excuse me, a milk jug.
Speaker 1 (45:37):
But it's saying right here that it's not quite sure
if it's environmentallyfriendlier than the plastic
container.
So if that's what you're goingfor, but I guess I think it's
more of a cost thing If I canput it in a plastic, I think
it's more of a cost thing, if Ican put it in a plastic bag.
It's going to be cheaper.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
Yeah, if it's a little bit more.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
I don't want milk in a bag?
Speaker 2 (45:58):
I don't either, but I bet you can get a coater.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
Don't you think you can get a coater in a bag?
Speaker 2 (46:03):
We really only use milk to cook with Nicholas eats
cereal.
Speaker 1 (46:08):
Yeah, milk to cook with nicholas eats cereal, yeah,
but he don't, he don't do muchof that anymore.
Speaker 2 (46:10):
No, me and you don't really.
Speaker 1 (46:14):
I think I just used it to cook with shout out to
spencer for giving me that, uh,information about the milk
bladder.
All right, all right, we gottago.
You know why?
Because the battery on thisrecorder is almost dead, and if
it dies during the recording, welose everything that we've

Is it always all?
Speaker 1 (46:36):

Yeah, those are always red.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (46:39):
And these right here are red because I muted these
mic openings.
Speaker 2 (46:43):
Your cat's about to eat your dog food.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
