What does a chilly Sunday night under blankets, the sight of boat headlights on a lake, and fall wreaths have in common? They all set the scene for our latest cozy episode, where we share our adventures in subtle fall decor transitions, marvel at nighttime lake views, and recount the hilarious chaos our Roomba caused with our dogs. We also chat about the geese flying overhead, the shift to meteorological fall, and how we spent Labor Day differently—one of us going all out with fall decorating. Plus, there's a bit of nostalgia as we plan some vacuuming and cleaning, reminiscing about past autumn memories.
Ever wondered how past "Big Brother" contestants fare in holiday-themed challenges? Tune in as we discuss our newfound obsession with the "Big Brother Reindeer Games," reflecting on the evolution of strategies and alliances over the years. Our conversation takes a whimsical turn debating the practicality of slides with socks and the ever-controversial Crocs. We also share our nightly routines, from letting the dogs out to cleaning the Blackstone grill and adapting to air frying—a nightly dance of chores and relaxation that sets the rhythm of our evenings.
Imagine flying first class from Dubai or enjoying a luxurious train ride across Europe. We recount these extravagant travel experiences, complete with exclusive onboard services, and discuss the curious concept of a Winter Hotel's Ice Ceremony Hall. The conversation meanders through the challenges of foreign currency conversions, the poetic transition of a lake from day to night, and the quirks of holiday schedules. Should all holidays be on Saturdays? We ponder this idea while sharing our weekend plans and the ongoing challenge of balancing leisure with busy schedules. Join us for a warm, engaging chat that travels from cozy living rooms to luxurious getaways, all wrapped up in a blanket of fall ambiance.

Her name's coco.
We watch big brother.
We've talked about that before,I don't know how many of y'all
watch.
We need to talk about that, butwe watch big brother.
It's a.
It's a reality show where 16people go.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
They have to live together and each week one of
them gets voted.
We don't watch it asconsistently as we did when it
first come on.
There's like 26 seasons.
We'll get into that in a secondokay.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
So anyway, when they do their tasks, there's like an
air horn type thing yeah, theygo, even their buzzers or
something.
There's a buzzer and a little,you know like when, uh, there's
a little ding, they say order upat a restaurant a little ding.
They do that bell too, and allof those for some reason on this
show drives her crazy becausethey can do it on other shows
(06:34):
and I've noticed you don't shegoes behind the couch oh, she
tries to get up underneath thecouch she jumps in my lap, she
jumps down, she jumps back in mylap, she shakes, shakes.
It's got to be painful for her,she shakes so bad.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
And the fire alarm if the batteries go down.
Oh, if that thing chirps.
Oh, she is, she's messed up forhours.
One little chirp and you bettergo get that thing.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Yeah, find out where it's at.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
It's bad.
We have to put her outside ordown there with Nicholas.
That looks like a spaceship orsomething going through.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
So now you've got pontoons, it's got LED, a solid
light across the side of LED,and this one's blue Looks really
crazy.
But you're talking about BigBrother.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
We're talking about Big Brother.
So Jody mentioned I think lasttime or time before, I can't
remember we talked about BigBrother and then we talked about
how we liked the older episodes, like older seasons, and so I
went on and I found those olderseasons and I've watched a
(07:38):
little bit of them, but I foundBecause the first season is like
23 years old, it's like 2001 or2000, something like that.
Four, is it?
Okay?
Maybe I can't remember now, ofcourse I can't remember 20, 21,
22 years ago, yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
So it's kind of hard to watch.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Because of the, just because of that big gap in years
, right.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
So as I was hunting those, I found big brother
reindeer games and it's got umpast um big brother, people that
were like contestants some ofthem.
Some of them are winners, someof them were just popular, you
know, like they were popularwith the um, um, what they call
it, what, what are.
We were popular with theoutside world, like america's,
(08:33):
they they'll like, call themamerica's favorite or america's
choice, or whatever.
So, um, they and this.
This took place last year atchristmas time and I didn't even
know it.
How did I not know big brotherhad this?
I?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
don't know but I enjoyed it, and jody even
wouldn't let me watch themwithout him I know I got into it
it was, it's because we knewthe contestants but wherever you
found this at, if thecommercials are cut out, oh yeah
, there was no commercials in it, so that made it good, so each
episode is like 35 minutes,maybe 40 minutes at the most.
So you're watching the wholething.
(09:10):
So you can just watch a coupleback to back.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
And they vote somebody out every episode, like
I think it took place in 12days or 16 days.
Yeah, so it's like the 12 daysof Christmas or something like
that.
Maybe or something.
Yeah, so it was good, but you.
Maybe or something.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
yeah, so it was good, but you had the veterans had
been on there, knew the game, soit was just it was different
they approached it different.
It was very good, but if youwatch the first episode, like we
did, from 20 years ago, oh yeahsince nobody knew anything they
didn't know anything aboutalliance and people that don't
watch this show.
They have no clue what we'retalking about right now, but you
know getting in groups likealliances, um, and just how to
(09:47):
play the game like.
I don't like the way it isbecause now they automatically
try and group together yeah, andthey don't play it and they,
they all.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
They don't want to make each other mad now when
they play.
They don't want to make eachother mad, so everybody votes
the same person off, and so youknow who's leaving.
Before they, even before it'seven the thursday episode for
them to get evicted?
Yeah, you're not, and it usedto not be that it used to not be
like, that you wouldn't knowbecause they wouldn't tell you
(10:16):
and they wouldn't all vote thesame.
Because you don't want to makeanybody mad, let's not make
somebody mad but I did enjoythat christmas episode yeah, I
did too.
I was hoping it was several ofthem, but it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Last year was the first um the first season of
that, so maybe they'll do it,maybe they'll do it every year
yeah, but I just don't careabout it now, I don't care about
the way the game's played.
I don't care about thecharacters yeah uh, just it's
just we have different opinionswell, it seems like when they
first started, you had olderpeople on there too, it was a
(10:50):
good mix of ages and now it'sall about the young 20s yeah,
and I guess we're old yeah, andI understand too.
You got a uh demographic.
You're trying to hit on a showand uh, you know what?
The breeze stopped and now I'mhot.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
I did stop.
I'm not hot, not yet.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I got a long-sleeved shirt on.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I'm under a blanket.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I know that's crazy A fleecy blanket.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
And I have fleece pants on.
I went and put pants on.
And flip-flops.
I'll never not be in flip-flops.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I got socks and slides in your slides there's no
, is there?
Hey, somebody comment please isblack socks like the no-show
black socks and slides?
Is that okay to wear?
No, so you're saying you haveto have no socks?
Speaker 1 (11:34):
you're 48 years old, seven, whatever you are anyway
but does that matter?
Speaker 2 (11:42):
so so, because of my age, yeah, so what if I all
right?
So if I was 20?
You can wear flip-flops yeah,so you're saying I shouldn't
wear slides at all.
Is that what you're saying?
Well, maybe I don't know, oryou're saying the socks is the
problem.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I don't know.
No, I don't think you wearslides without socks.
That look weird, don't it?
Speaker 2 (12:03):
But I thought that was the whole issue with the
slides is because I wear socks?
No, I just don't like them.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I don't like the look .
You don't like the slides RightNow okay, no, not the slides.
Oh my God, what is it then?
I just don't like the look.
You got some awful lookingslides.
What do you mean, some puma?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
These are puma, puma.
And then I've got some UnderArmour ones, but you don't like
those either.
They're black, they're solidblack.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah, get off that phone, stop texting and pay
attention to the podcast.
I'm working well for just asecond, so 10 minutes you can
text, because I'll forgetwhatever, get back in the game
and what?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
what else was you gonna say?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I don't know, like I don't it doesn't bother for
nicholas to wear them.
It doesn't bother me fornicholas to wear them.
But when you wear them and youwant to wear them in the store
with me and I'm like, put yourshoes on so if I had crocs,
would that be better or worse?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
I don't know I'm not wearing crocs in the store I
don't even have a pair of crocsyou used to I had a pair of
crocs at one time yeah but no,if I had crocs, I would probably
wear them when I go down andfeed the fish right and I get in
the water because I don't youknow they're what?
Speaker 1 (13:24):
would you call them waterproof there'd be a good, a
good shoe to wear in waterbecause you wouldn't have to.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
You know it's easy to dry.
I'd do that.
But as for like going to astore or anything, I'm probably
not.
I'm not weed eating themsomething.
Anything outside I would do.
But right, other than that, no.
But yeah, flip-flops used towear all the time I know, and
now, you won't wear flip-flops.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I like flip-flops, that's about all I wear and they
send new ones all right.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
So yesterday I that flying through there, do you see
it?
I can't tell what it is, it'sjust a big old bird that might
be an eagle.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Look at it.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I see it.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
It was big.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Yeah, there's really no way to tell.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
You can just see it up against the horizon, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Because of the.
You know it's getting dark, hmm, so anyway.
So football started thisweekend.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
War Eagle.
Hey, we didn't plan that, yougot those.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Roll Tide fans out there.
Oh no, I don't.
Yeah, whatever, nicholas is aGator fan, traitor, he likes
Florida, he's a Traitor fan,Traitor, he likes Florida, he's
a Traitor fan.
So we used to take Nicholas,when he was a kid, of course, to
Auburn games.
One year we went to four, five,six games, something.
It was the year Cam Newton wasthe quarterback and, of course,
auburn had a winning season, hada good season, good year.
(14:52):
Well, it's actually the yearthey won national championship.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah, we went to that right.
We did not go to the nationalchampionship.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
We went.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
What did we go to?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
We went to the SEC championship game.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Oh okay, my bad.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
But it wasn't the year of Cam Newton.
It was when we played Oregon.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
It was the, let me think, follinger.
I don't know.
I've got the thing.
You may go find the picture.
No, I don't.
So yeah, so nicholas was anauburn fan, of course, because I
guess he just falls in line,because when your parents are
auburn fan, or whatever fan youare, your kids are basically
that till they get old enoughand they make their own decision
right.
And then somehow he got on thegator chomp almost kicked him
(15:36):
out of the house.
Yeah but I think tim tebow too.
He looked it up to tim tebow,yeah, and became a gator fan and
so, like tonight at church, wehad a fellowship, kind of like a
football tailgate, since it'sbasically the end of summer,
it's the beginning of football.
So we just had a little gettogether and everybody wear
(15:57):
their any excuse to eat.
Yeah, that's right, we just hada little get-together and
everybody wore their team colors.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Any excuse to eat.
Yeah, that's right, we go to aBaptist church.
So he wore his.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Tim Tebow jersey, and I wore my Auburn shirt and you
did too.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I wore everything Auburn.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Nails.
I did my football nailsearrings shirt so we did excuse
me and not even wearing my stuffyeah, so we did the uh, what
was it?
Speaker 2 (16:28):
ESPN Like fantasy football, ncaa.
Oh yeah Thing, and so you'rebeating me right now, and I'm
winning right now.
You're eight and two and I'mseven and three.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Because I voted against Florida.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, and I did good I was thinking Florida would
pull it off against Miami forsome reason, I don't know why I
thought that I knew it, but yeahso football, I knew it, but
yeah, so football.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
So see like right now , see if the temperature was
like it is right now last night,oh yeah, we could have set out
last night and done a fire, hitthe fire pit, brought the TV
outside and watched football.
Yeah, I like the TV outside andkick back watching football, as
long as the fire is not toosmoky.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Yeah, so I think this week right here is going to be
in the 80s.
This week right here is goingto be in the 80s.
I think that's what I saw and Ithink it's going to be kind of
cooler evening.
So, yeah, maybe next weekend Ihaven't looked at the schedule
to see who alabama, auburn,georgia everybody plays my phone
, but I hadn't looked at theschedule up yet, so it's usually
the third week before youreally get going with some good
(17:27):
games.
I won't be here that one, thethird or fourth week week.
So we'll see.
We'll see what happens.
I haven't looked at anyschedule at all.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Yeah, me neither.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
I don't keep up with it like I used to.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I do.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
We used to be diehard , or I'll say I was for a few
years.
I really got into it.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Would watch every game If I couldn't watch the
game we would record, it, wouldwatch every game if I couldn't
watch the game, we would recordit, yeah, and then I wouldn't
did not want to know the score,like I don't, don't turn it on.
Don't turn it on, don't turn onthe radio, whatever.

find out.
You know that kind of thing,and now I don't even well, I

have to get up, say by 6 or 7 oranything like that.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
You can't get up at 3 o'clock in the morning.
I mean, I guess I would too.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
But even with that.
I'm just saying people thatusually have to be at work at 7
or 8, still I'm thinking like 9o'clock.
A lot of people go to bed likeat 9 o'clock or just as you get
older.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
I think it's not right if you go to bed before 10
.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, I would like that the weekends I can stay up
sometimes until then, but mybody just shuts down and I'm not
fighting it.
It's not worth it to me tofight falling asleep if I'm
trying to watch something orwhatever, because now I'm not
going to remember, I'm going tomiss a few minutes because I
keep dozing off, and so what'sthe use?
Speaker 1 (19:59):
just go to bed yeah I know I mean, that was my thing
last night.
I kept dozing off, we did, wehave something on tv and I don't
like it when you agreed.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I don't like it when you announce to the world I'm
going to bed before I do because, that messes up my routine I
know, because when I go to bed Ijust go to bed, I go in there
and I'm like, golly, I gottaturn lights off, I gotta fix my
own coffee for the next morning.
No, I usually fix your coffeeunless it's Saturday or Sunday.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I did last night.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Saturday and Sunday I'm off From fixing me coffee.
From fixing coffee.
That's fine.
So what was I going to say?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
I was going somewhere with that, yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
So Jody has to get his clothes together.
He's got to let the dogs out,he's got to.
I don't know what he does, butwhen he says he's going to bed,
30 minutes later he will go tobed.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
It's not that long.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
When I say I'm going to bed five minutes, I'm gone.
Now I might be back there on myphone.
What is that?
Oh, a cat.
I don't like it dark out here.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
I have chores to do before I go to bed.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Yeah, when I'm going to bed, I'm going to bed, not 30
minutes later.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
So the dogs have to go out.
You got to let them out rightbefore you go to bed.
They have to go out to use thebathroom.
I can't always rely on Nicholas,so I let him out.
And then if Winston, all hewants to do is look at a cat
that's out here and not go usethe bathroom drives me crazy, so
I'm out here longer than I wantto be.
That's the problem.
Is the stinking dogs lettingthem out and letting them back
(21:47):
in, trying to keep Coco fromrunning off up the hill,
anything like that?
But but, yeah, Get up and sayI'm going to bed.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
It's like, oh, I was like now I've got a lot to do.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
I was like I can't just let the dogs out and walk
back there and go to bed.
Now I have to make sure thelights are turned off.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
It don't bother me with lights, because I never go
to bed and just go to bed unlessI don't feel good.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
But I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Sometimes I do.
If you're watching somethingand you're watching something
and I'm, and you're into it andI'm over there dozing off, I'll
say I'm going to bed and I'll goto bed and go to sleep.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
I just wish you could make a decision on what we're
going to watch when we finallysit down, like I've gave you
ample amount of time.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Why is it always me?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
well, because I ask you, find us something, and then
when I finally get, and Isettled in and I find me no, you
hand me the remotes when Ifinally sit down to eat.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
These last weeks you tell me to find something to
watch, and I'm putting it on themiddle because we ain't
finished the middle yet.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Oh, the middle's so great.
Sue graduated.
I know she's in college now.
My girl has grown up, she'sleft the nest.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Yep, it's just a good show.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
That is just such a good show.
I could go back and watch itagain.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
I know you could, because you missed the first.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Well, I've missed like the last four episodes
before we started watching ittoday.
We tried to watch a few inbetween church today I fell
asleep.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Oh, I did too.
Yeah, you fell asleep before Idid.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Yeah, I don't normally take naps.
Yeah, I did too.
Yeah, you fell asleep before Idid.
Yeah, I don't normally takenaps but by golly.
Today I did yeah, but Icouldn't help it.
Yeah, I was fighting it.
I was like, why am I fightingit?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I know that's me like why am I fighting it?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
And then my contacts were dried to my eyes.
When I woke I couldn't see.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I had to go back there and scrape them off my
eyeballs and oh, that's a badthing it was terrible.
Why don't you just take youreyes out?
No, we call it taking your eyesout, taking your contacts out,
but it's like I can't that's toomuch trouble like it doesn't
even put them back in.
I don't even have them out now.
I mean, it's dark, why not?
Why do I not got them out rightnow?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I don't have mine out either.
I don't know why I'm wearing myreading glasses.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
I was going to say you've got glasses on, I've got
something right here.
I was going to read oh, you'rereaders, oh yeah and it's hard
to put glasses on after these.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
You've got these headsets on, so I just left them
on.
I'll tell you what, though youwear glasses and wear these
headsets for 30 minutes orlonger Does it hurt, man it
starts hurting.
Maybe I that other podcast andwe, you know, we record, for
(24:22):
probably, I mean it might be twoand a half to three hours.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
When we record two episodes, I can't do it, and so
I've, I'm reading stuff andwe're going over stats and we're
talking about this and that anduh.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
So yeah, it starts killing your head around your
ears wearing these things.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So yeah, so so so we's gonna cook out.
All weekend we've been out ofpropane I got as far as all
summer long have not been.
This is my reasoning.
We have a black stone.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
It's a.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
It's a and I love to cook on it, but it needs to be
cleaned Like we need to likere-season it, so we've got to
clean it real good.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, the cleaning won't be bad, but then you have
to season it after cleaning.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
But I've got to where I can cook hamburgers, I can
cook steaks, I can cook hot dogsall in the air fryer and I'm
just like let's just do that andme or Jody, neither one, we
don't.
We don't fuss about it, we'relike okay, all right, I really
wanted to grill out.
I really wanted the black blacktop, black stone clean to grill
(25:30):
out.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
But so saturday I'd already decided.
You know what it's the end ofsummer and I'm finally gonna buy
a, a propane tank.
So I put an empty propane tankin the back of my truck.
You did.
Yeah, it's in the back of mytruck right now, but I put it in
there.
Saturday, when I left, had, youknow, a few errands to run and
when I came back, actually did Imeet you in Jasper.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
No, you met me at the grocery store at Gateway,
that's right.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
So yeah, that's right .
Speaker 1 (25:55):
To pick out meat to grill, to pick out meat to grill
on the Blackstone.
And we didn't even do it.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Didn't even get propane because we decided that
we're just going to use the airfryer.
Yeah, I just take the steaksand cut them up and it's called
steak bites and you put it inthe air fryer.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Well, it's like beef tips.
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
But chuck eyes, yeah, yeah, but chukkas, oh.
But.
So you get the chukkas.
They're my fave.
We marinate them for probablyfour hours.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
It was a while.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Yeah, leave them out, get them room temperature,
which it really wouldn't matter,because we're using it, because
usually, if you're going togrill them, I wouldn't, but if
you're air frying them, but theonly thing I'm satisfied with
the air fryer on the steak,except it takes the flavor away.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
That's the only thing this time, but it don't always
do that, so I don't knowsomething we're not the next one
.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
We're doing.
We're doing on.
I am getting propane and we'recooking.
I don't care.
We're done with air fryer whenit comes to steak.
You can do your other stuff,that's fine well, you know when
we do.
If I want a steak during thewinter, you can do pizza rolls
in the air fryer, but it takesremember it's crisper and it
seems like it takes the tasteaway too, like the insides
disappear.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Oh, that's because I done them too long.
That time I done them too long.
I don't know, the only thingabout the air fryer is y'all eat
so much.
I have to do two, I have tocook two different times, but
it's still so much better thanthe oven, because it takes the
oven forever to heat up.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
What happened to our Instapot?
We used to be big on theInstapot.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
I know yeah, potatoes .
I thought about potatoes theother day.
We hadn't had potatoes in awhile man that's all we put
those in the Instapot for 20, 25minutes.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
I think if you put the Instapot and then you have
the air fryer and you're cookingout of both of those, you'd
have an exceptional dinner.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Well, you know I do ribs in the Instapot.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
You've never had ribs like what's in an air fryer I
mean not air fryer.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Well, you cook them in the Instapot and then, um I
cook them in apple cider vinegarand um I done a dr pepper last
time, and then, um you take themout, you put your barbecue
sauce on them and you put themin the air fryer to um to get
the barbecue sauce, um, what'sthe word?
(28:15):
Like a glaze on it yeah,there's a word for it.
Of course I can't think of it,but anyway.
So yeah, that was our grillingout for labor day but you pull
it on the rib, it comes right up.
It's really unbelievable howgood it is.
It's from that instapotsteaming them like the instapot
really does a number it.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
That bone just comes off and that meat is so good, so
good.
Oh my goodness, we might haveto have those next week.
Yeah, you talk about it.
It don't sound that great.
That's the number.
That bone just comes off, andthat meat is so good, so good.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Oh, my goodness, we might have to have those next
week.
Yeah, we'll get you to talkabout it.
It don't sound that great rightnow because we just ate.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Oh yeah, we just ate, we ate finger foods at church
for the football tailgate thing.
But the brownies I had thatfudge brownie.
You had two brownies ice cream,had some strawberries and
blueberries.
Ain't nothing like cold, coldstrawberries and blueberries
love it, I'm I'm stuffed, andthen drank two cups of tea I
(29:05):
didn't even know.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
You got two cups of tea.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I got you one, then you got another I hadn't even
finished my other one, but whileI was up I thought I'm just
gonna grab another one, just incase okay, so I didn't have to
get up again.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
I got you.
Yeah, they were smaller cups, Imean.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
So yeah, We've kind of figured out at these socials
we have at church or fellowships, to go to the dessert table
first, go ahead and grab, you Goget the dessert.
Because the line can be so longto get the regular food that
it's not picked over on thedessert.
You go ahead and go there firstand just get whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Who doesn't love dessert first?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Oh my goodness, who made that rule?
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
That you have to eat regular food first.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Don't eat your dessert I don't know.
Yep, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
You got a roadside oddity or anything.
No.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
I don't, are you?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
trying to take mine away from, but I thought that
was going to be your thing.
Every week we'll do a roadside.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
There hadn't been a good one, I hadn't seen a good
one.
You want me to talk?
About this ice hotel yes,because you want to Switzerland,
go right ahead.
Anybody been to?
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Switzerland, I haven't.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
You going to carry me one day, you ever seen the
Northern Lights.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
You going to carry me Besides that time that you put
the way and look up in the skyin alabama and you can see it,
which is a sham scam sham shamshammy scam.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
All right, let's go.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
All right the ice hotel.
Uh, it's in switzerland.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
I've already flipped through a few pages there's an
ice thing in georgia, I think isthere, uh, the world's first
and largest hotel built out ofthe snow and ice.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Ice hotel has been reincarnated in a new rendition
every winter for the last threedecades.
Three decades, that's a longtime, that's three, that's three
plus zero.
Added together is 30.
Let's see Every year with abroad new art to experience.
Okay, I'd kind of me, let mestart over.
(31:00):
Let me go here.
Uh, during an intense period incan, what is this word?
Capital?
J u, k, k a s, j, I'm not evengonna say it.
So an intense period in blank.
During November and earlyDecember every year, the empty
(31:20):
space on the riverbank turnsinto a majestic hotel made of
ice and snow.
Doesn't that sound?
I wish I could see thesepictures.
Let's talk about the hotel.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I wish you'd just take me.
Yeah, why don't you just takeme?
Speaker 2 (31:33):
So during five months , guests from all over the world
experience the art and icehotel winter, before it melts
down in spring and the loan fromits adjacent I can't even read
these words something from theriver returns.
So besides the 15 to 20standard ice rooms in the Winter
(31:58):
Hotel, it also houses 12 artsuites, uniquely designed and
handcrafted, all of them createdfor the very first time.
So let's talk about the 12suites.
The art suites are individuallydesigned and sculpted.
I can't even say that either.
(32:19):
Skip that.
The artists, perhaps fromGermany, uk or the US, have been
picked from over 200 applicantsand invited to make the suite
you'll be sleeping in.
Each suite is unique and hasnever been created before.
How about that?
How?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
about that?
How about that?
Speaker 2 (32:39):
All right, the ice room 15 to 20 rooms, Our
standard rooms with ice decorand a bed made of ice.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
No.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
I wanted to create a feeling of being embraced and
protected by the ice.
A good night's sleep for allguests.
Joanne Larson, the artist ofour standard ice rooms.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
Is this the place that the dude you watch on
youtube?
Speaker 2 (33:02):
simon wilson.
If you check him out on youtube, he's got a youtube channel.
He goes around and checks theseplaces out jody's addicted to
him, oh yeah he fly, he justgoes.
He'll ask somebody wherethey're from and if, wherever it
is, he'll fly there anyway.
He just documents what it's allabout.
He.
He flew, uh, from dubai tosomewhere in first class and we
(33:24):
watched that and it was, was itnot?
Unbelievable?
I like the train one yeah, buthe, it was like you're in your
own little oh, yeah, yeah, yeahon the jet, and then you had a
uh.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
And it closed, right yeah everything closed, like a
room.
Yeah, then you had, like I'mgoing to call them servants.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
They came around, yeah, and was handing you out
stuff.
It was just unbelievable.
I think it was $6,500,something like that for that
first class.
I think Might have been morethan that.
But yeah, check him out, heeven does.
You said the trains um one ofthem he went.
Where did he go?
(34:03):
Somewhere in europe?
But he gets first class oneverything, kind of just shows
you what it's all about and it'spretty neat one of them was a
24 hour ride or a 48 hour ride.
He had a a uh like a littlesuite that it would sleep for,
so these beds and everythingpoured out.
But then he went around to theregular seating was just chairs
(34:28):
and these people had paid forthese seats and that's what you
were in for the 40-somethinghours.
You didn't have a bed.
He didn't recline back, nothinglike that.
He did that.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
It didn't recline back.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Nothing like that Can't do that.
It was crazy, all right.
So Ceremony Hall it's a uniquewedding venue, so our Ice
Ceremony Hall is also located inthe Winter Hotel, together with
the best of the building.
It returns to the river inspring, but love is eternal.
Let's see.
(35:03):
Let me see.
This is an intimate venueaccommodating around 35 to 40
people, with walls and ceilingmade of snow, and the altar
details and benches are made ofpristine natural ice and benches
are made of pristine naturalice.
It is also very suitable forthose considering to renew their
vows or a solemn blessingceremony.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Are you trying to tell me this is where we're
going?
Speaker 2 (35:26):
in September.
Maybe, so, maybe, so what doyou think about that?
Speaker 1 (35:32):
I don't think I could do it, why it's too cold.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
You think so?
Speaker 1 (35:36):
Yes, I think I couldn can handle it.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
Now.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
I'd like to see it, but I don't think I can handle
it.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
I'm going to go into the tickets and availability to
see what this is.
If I can find it, you mighthave to talk for a minute.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
I don't got nothing to say.
Really, it's bedtime.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Bed ain't bedtime?
Not yet.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
It's 8 o'clock.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
It's time, bed, ain't bedtime, not yet.
It's eight o'clock, it's abedtime, it's a winding down
time.
I don't know what, uh,switzerland, I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
The conversion rate for money is, yeah, no clue.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Yeah, sorry on that one anyway, so that's not gonna
help yeah, you're no help nope,my bad look how the water's
rippling like it looks weird.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Somebody just turned their bright light on over there
too it looks like water.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
It's dark now.
I mean where it was, it waslighter when we started this and
now it's completely water, butit's dark now.
I mean where it was.
It was lighter when we startedthis and now it's completely
dark.
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Yeah, it's dark.
Oh, they turned their light offthe lake was hopping today,
though, before that wind blew upso tomorrow or this will come
out.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
What is it?
Labor day uh, yeah so I hopeeverybody has a good labor day,
hope everybody's off, doesn'thave to work.
It doesn't really make sense tome because, uh, labor day,
everybody's off, work.
Shouldn't you be laboring?
Shouldn't you be getting afterit at work?
No, I've been getting after itenough have you yeah yeah, I
(37:14):
think all holidays should be onsaturday.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
That's what I think, but not all places are closed,
so that really don't matter.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
But if you put it on Saturday, it'll help more people
to be able to be off work.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
You think so?
Speaker 2 (37:27):
I do, but then it'll make more people madder because
they're like I could have got anextra day off Right, a
three-day weekend, what?
Speaker 1 (37:34):
are you?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
doing Jody, why are you changing this?
That's right.
I blame the government for allthis, oh okay why do we have
thank you?
Speaker 1 (37:40):
blame the government.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Why do we have that's right?
Why don't we have thanksgivingon thursdays?
I don't know, doesn't matterthe date, we're gonna throw it
on a thursday that's right why?
I don't know, why don't we dochristmas that way?
I don't know.
Doesn't make sense.
Put them all on a saturday.
That's what I say.
It really messes me up when youhave a holiday following a
(38:01):
different day every year,because some days for me are
harder than others when it comesto working.
So if I've got to be off thatday like a Christmas and that's
a really rough day for me I'vegot to figure out how to squeeze
that in on other days.
Am I boring you over there?
Speaker 1 (38:16):
no, I'm good you sure ?
Speaker 2 (38:17):
yes, you look like I was boring you over there.
No, I'm good, you sure.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yes, looked like I was boring you.
No, I don't.
Anyway, all right, it's abouttime to wrap her up.
Yep, they've heard enough of us.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
They're done with us.
All right, we're still going toget to the Little Debbie Park

No, because you don't like it.
Well, we've got two dogs.
Well, like if you use thevacuum, oh they go crazy, they
go crazy, they don't go crazy,they're just like.
I want to get away from thesituation.
And it's not even a big vacuum,it's a little, not handheld,
(05:26):
it's a little shark vacuumthat's not loud at all.
Well, but if you're a dog anddon't understand, what it is and
you're coming at them with it.
Yeah, so.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I will have to.
I'll have to vacuum tomorrowwhile I'm.
I'll do that before I decorate.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Have we talked about?
I might?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
do that while Nicholas is in the bed.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Speaking of sounds and the dog, have we talked
about Coco and her issue withlike?
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I don't think so okay our little chihuahua.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Her name's coco.
We watch big brother.
We've talked about that before,I don't know how many of y'all
watch.
We need to talk about that, butwe watch big brother.
It's a.
It's a reality show where 16people go.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
They have to live together and each week one of
them gets voted.
We don't watch it asconsistently as we did when it
first come on.
There's like 26 seasons.
We'll get into that in a secondokay.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
So anyway, when they do their tasks, there's like an
air horn type thing yeah, theygo, even their buzzers or
something.
There's a buzzer and a little,you know like when, uh, there's
a little ding, they say order upat a restaurant a little ding.
They do that bell too, and allof those for some reason on this
show drives her crazy becausethey can do it on other shows
(06:34):
and I've noticed you don't shegoes behind the couch oh, she
tries to get up underneath thecouch she jumps in my lap, she
jumps down, she jumps back in mylap, she shakes, shakes.
It's got to be painful for her,she shakes so bad.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
And the fire alarm if the batteries go down.
Oh, if that thing chirps.
Oh, she is, she's messed up forhours.
One little chirp and you bettergo get that thing.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Yeah, find out where it's at.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
It's bad.
We have to put her outside ordown there with Nicholas.
That looks like a spaceship orsomething going through.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
So now you've got pontoons, it's got LED, a solid
light across the side of LED,and this one's blue Looks really
crazy.
But you're talking about BigBrother.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
We're talking about Big Brother.
So Jody mentioned I think lasttime or time before, I can't
remember we talked about BigBrother and then we talked about
how we liked the older episodes, like older seasons, and so I
went on and I found those olderseasons and I've watched a
(07:38):
little bit of them, but I foundBecause the first season is like
23 years old, it's like 2001 or2000, something like that.
Four, is it?
Okay?
Maybe I can't remember now, ofcourse I can't remember 20, 21,
22 years ago, yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
So it's kind of hard to watch.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Because of the, just because of that big gap in years
, right.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
So as I was hunting those, I found big brother
reindeer games and it's got umpast um big brother, people that
were like contestants some ofthem.
Some of them are winners, someof them were just popular, you
know, like they were popularwith the um, um, what they call
it, what, what are.
We were popular with theoutside world, like america's,
(08:33):
they they'll like, call themamerica's favorite or america's
choice, or whatever.
So, um, they and this.
This took place last year atchristmas time and I didn't even
know it.
How did I not know big brotherhad this?
I?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
don't know but I enjoyed it, and jody even
wouldn't let me watch themwithout him I know I got into it
it was, it's because we knewthe contestants but wherever you
found this at, if thecommercials are cut out, oh yeah
, there was no commercials in it, so that made it good, so each
episode is like 35 minutes,maybe 40 minutes at the most.
So you're watching the wholething.
(09:10):
So you can just watch a coupleback to back.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
And they vote somebody out every episode, like
I think it took place in 12days or 16 days.
Yeah, so it's like the 12 daysof Christmas or something like
that.
Maybe or something.
Yeah, so it was good, but you.
Maybe or something.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
yeah, so it was good, but you had the veterans had
been on there, knew the game, soit was just it was different
they approached it different.
It was very good, but if youwatch the first episode, like we
did, from 20 years ago, oh yeahsince nobody knew anything they
didn't know anything aboutalliance and people that don't
watch this show.
They have no clue what we'retalking about right now, but you
know getting in groups likealliances, um, and just how to
(09:47):
play the game like.
I don't like the way it isbecause now they automatically
try and group together yeah, andthey don't play it and they,
they all.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
They don't want to make each other mad now when
they play.
They don't want to make eachother mad, so everybody votes
the same person off, and so youknow who's leaving.
Before they, even before it'seven the thursday episode for
them to get evicted?
Yeah, you're not, and it usedto not be that it used to not be
like, that you wouldn't knowbecause they wouldn't tell you
(10:16):
and they wouldn't all vote thesame.
Because you don't want to makeanybody mad, let's not make
somebody mad but I did enjoythat christmas episode yeah, I
did too.
I was hoping it was several ofthem, but it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Last year was the first um the first season of
that, so maybe they'll do it,maybe they'll do it every year
yeah, but I just don't careabout it now, I don't care about
the way the game's played.
I don't care about thecharacters yeah uh, just it's
just we have different opinionswell, it seems like when they
first started, you had olderpeople on there too, it was a
(10:50):
good mix of ages and now it'sall about the young 20s yeah,
and I guess we're old yeah, andI understand too.
You got a uh demographic.
You're trying to hit on a showand uh, you know what?
The breeze stopped and now I'mhot.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
I did stop.
I'm not hot, not yet.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I got a long-sleeved shirt on.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I'm under a blanket.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I know that's crazy A fleecy blanket.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
And I have fleece pants on.
I went and put pants on.
And flip-flops.
I'll never not be in flip-flops.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I got socks and slides in your slides there's no
, is there?
Hey, somebody comment please isblack socks like the no-show
black socks and slides?
Is that okay to wear?
No, so you're saying you haveto have no socks?
Speaker 1 (11:34):
you're 48 years old, seven, whatever you are anyway
but does that matter?
Speaker 2 (11:42):
so so, because of my age, yeah, so what if I all
right?
So if I was 20?
You can wear flip-flops yeah,so you're saying I shouldn't
wear slides at all.
Is that what you're saying?
Well, maybe I don't know, oryou're saying the socks is the
problem.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I don't know.
No, I don't think you wearslides without socks.
That look weird, don't it?
Speaker 2 (12:03):
But I thought that was the whole issue with the
slides is because I wear socks?
No, I just don't like them.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I don't like the look .
You don't like the slides RightNow okay, no, not the slides.
Oh my God, what is it then?
I just don't like the look.
You got some awful lookingslides.
What do you mean, some puma?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
These are puma, puma.
And then I've got some UnderArmour ones, but you don't like
those either.
They're black, they're solidblack.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah, get off that phone, stop texting and pay
attention to the podcast.
I'm working well for just asecond, so 10 minutes you can
text, because I'll forgetwhatever, get back in the game
and what?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
what else was you gonna say?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I don't know, like I don't it doesn't bother for
nicholas to wear them.
It doesn't bother me fornicholas to wear them.
But when you wear them and youwant to wear them in the store
with me and I'm like, put yourshoes on so if I had crocs,
would that be better or worse?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
I don't know I'm not wearing crocs in the store I
don't even have a pair of crocsyou used to I had a pair of
crocs at one time yeah but no,if I had crocs, I would probably
wear them when I go down andfeed the fish right and I get in
the water because I don't youknow they're what?
Speaker 1 (13:24):
would you call them waterproof there'd be a good, a
good shoe to wear in waterbecause you wouldn't have to.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
You know it's easy to dry.
I'd do that.
But as for like going to astore or anything, I'm probably
not.
I'm not weed eating themsomething.
Anything outside I would do.
But right, other than that, no.
But yeah, flip-flops used towear all the time I know, and
now, you won't wear flip-flops.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I like flip-flops, that's about all I wear and they
send new ones all right.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
So yesterday I that flying through there, do you see
it?
I can't tell what it is, it'sjust a big old bird that might
be an eagle.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Look at it.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I see it.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
It was big.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Yeah, there's really no way to tell.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
You can just see it up against the horizon, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Because of the.
You know it's getting dark, hmm, so anyway.
So football started thisweekend.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
War Eagle.
Hey, we didn't plan that, yougot those.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Roll Tide fans out there.
Oh no, I don't.
Yeah, whatever, nicholas is aGator fan, traitor, he likes
Florida, he's a Traitor fan,Traitor, he likes Florida, he's
a Traitor fan.
So we used to take Nicholas,when he was a kid, of course, to
Auburn games.
One year we went to four, five,six games, something.
It was the year Cam Newton wasthe quarterback and, of course,
auburn had a winning season, hada good season, good year.
(14:52):
Well, it's actually the yearthey won national championship.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah, we went to that right.
We did not go to the nationalchampionship.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
We went.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
What did we go to?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
We went to the SEC championship game.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Oh okay, my bad.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
But it wasn't the year of Cam Newton.
It was when we played Oregon.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
It was the, let me think, follinger.
I don't know.
I've got the thing.
You may go find the picture.
No, I don't.
So yeah, so nicholas was anauburn fan, of course, because I
guess he just falls in line,because when your parents are
auburn fan, or whatever fan youare, your kids are basically
that till they get old enoughand they make their own decision
right.
And then somehow he got on thegator chomp almost kicked him
(15:36):
out of the house.
Yeah but I think tim tebow too.
He looked it up to tim tebow,yeah, and became a gator fan and
so, like tonight at church, wehad a fellowship, kind of like a
football tailgate, since it'sbasically the end of summer,
it's the beginning of football.
So we just had a little gettogether and everybody wear
(15:57):
their any excuse to eat.
Yeah, that's right, we just hada little get-together and
everybody wore their team colors.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Any excuse to eat.
Yeah, that's right, we go to aBaptist church.
So he wore his.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Tim Tebow jersey, and I wore my Auburn shirt and you
did too.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I wore everything Auburn.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Nails.
I did my football nailsearrings shirt so we did excuse
me and not even wearing my stuffyeah, so we did the uh, what
was it?
Speaker 2 (16:28):
ESPN Like fantasy football, ncaa.
Oh yeah Thing, and so you'rebeating me right now, and I'm
winning right now.
You're eight and two and I'mseven and three.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Because I voted against Florida.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, and I did good I was thinking Florida would
pull it off against Miami forsome reason, I don't know why I
thought that I knew it, but yeahso football, I knew it, but
yeah, so football.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
So see like right now , see if the temperature was
like it is right now last night,oh yeah, we could have set out
last night and done a fire, hitthe fire pit, brought the TV
outside and watched football.
Yeah, I like the TV outside andkick back watching football, as
long as the fire is not toosmoky.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Yeah, so I think this week right here is going to be
in the 80s.
This week right here is goingto be in the 80s.
I think that's what I saw and Ithink it's going to be kind of
cooler evening.
So, yeah, maybe next weekend Ihaven't looked at the schedule
to see who alabama, auburn,georgia everybody plays my phone
, but I hadn't looked at theschedule up yet, so it's usually
the third week before youreally get going with some good
(17:27):
games.
I won't be here that one, thethird or fourth week week.
So we'll see.
We'll see what happens.
I haven't looked at anyschedule at all.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Yeah, me neither.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
I don't keep up with it like I used to.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I do.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
We used to be diehard , or I'll say I was for a few
years.
I really got into it.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Would watch every game If I couldn't watch the
game we would record, it, wouldwatch every game if I couldn't
watch the game, we would recordit, yeah, and then I wouldn't
did not want to know the score,like I don't, don't turn it on.
Don't turn it on, don't turn onthe radio, whatever.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
When we get home I'll watch the game and then I'll
find out.
You know that kind of thing,and now I don't even well, I
like to watch game day oh yeahthey have good stories on game
day.
But to me, game day.
I would just about have torewatch it at another time
Because I just can't, I don'tknow, it's not a good time for
(18:21):
me.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Eight o'clock in the morning is not a good time?
Speaker 2 (18:23):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I'm busy, that's when I just want to sit there and
chill, like Jody likes to get upand get it done and get it
going.
But chill like jody likes toget up and get it done and get
it going, but I know that's partof his work, but when I get up
I just want to chill for aminute or two or hours.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Well, look, I'm not a get up and go person.
It gets daylight.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
You're gonna miss something, so you gotta get out
there and get busy, but whattime we go to bed.
Last night I don't think I everwent to bed that early nine oh
yeah, I think it was 9.15.
And I was awake at 5, and Icouldn't go back to sleep.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Well, I mean your body tells you how you've had
enough.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Your batteries are charged, yeah but I didn't want
to get up that early.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Don't go to bed so early.
You're getting old.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Well, I had a headache too, so I don't know of
any.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Well, I'll take that back.
I do know a couple of40-plus-year-old people that go
to bed at 12, 1 o'clock, butthat's just because they don't
have to get up, say by 6 or 7 oranything like that.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
You can't get up at 3 o'clock in the morning.
I mean, I guess I would too.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
But even with that.
I'm just saying people thatusually have to be at work at 7
or 8, still I'm thinking like 9o'clock.
A lot of people go to bed likeat 9 o'clock or just as you get
older.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
I think it's not right if you go to bed before 10
.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, I would like that the weekends I can stay up
sometimes until then, but mybody just shuts down and I'm not
fighting it.
It's not worth it to me tofight falling asleep if I'm
trying to watch something orwhatever, because now I'm not
going to remember, I'm going tomiss a few minutes because I
keep dozing off, and so what'sthe use?
Speaker 1 (19:59):
just go to bed yeah I know I mean, that was my thing
last night.
I kept dozing off, we did, wehave something on tv and I don't
like it when you agreed.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I don't like it when you announce to the world I'm
going to bed before I do because, that messes up my routine I
know, because when I go to bed Ijust go to bed, I go in there
and I'm like, golly, I gottaturn lights off, I gotta fix my
own coffee for the next morning.
No, I usually fix your coffeeunless it's Saturday or Sunday.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I did last night.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Saturday and Sunday I'm off From fixing me coffee.
From fixing coffee.
That's fine.
So what was I going to say?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
I was going somewhere with that, yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
So Jody has to get his clothes together.
He's got to let the dogs out,he's got to.
I don't know what he does, butwhen he says he's going to bed,
30 minutes later he will go tobed.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
It's not that long.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
When I say I'm going to bed five minutes, I'm gone.
Now I might be back there on myphone.
What is that?
Oh, a cat.
I don't like it dark out here.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
I have chores to do before I go to bed.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Yeah, when I'm going to bed, I'm going to bed, not 30
minutes later.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
So the dogs have to go out.
You got to let them out rightbefore you go to bed.
They have to go out to use thebathroom.
I can't always rely on Nicholas,so I let him out.
And then if Winston, all hewants to do is look at a cat
that's out here and not go usethe bathroom drives me crazy, so
I'm out here longer than I wantto be.
That's the problem.
Is the stinking dogs lettingthem out and letting them back
(21:47):
in, trying to keep Coco fromrunning off up the hill,
anything like that?
But but, yeah, Get up and sayI'm going to bed.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
It's like, oh, I was like now I've got a lot to do.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
I was like I can't just let the dogs out and walk
back there and go to bed.
Now I have to make sure thelights are turned off.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
It don't bother me with lights, because I never go
to bed and just go to bed unlessI don't feel good.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
But I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Sometimes I do.
If you're watching somethingand you're watching something
and I'm, and you're into it andI'm over there dozing off, I'll
say I'm going to bed and I'll goto bed and go to sleep.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
I just wish you could make a decision on what we're
going to watch when we finallysit down, like I've gave you
ample amount of time.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Why is it always me?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
well, because I ask you, find us something, and then
when I finally get, and Isettled in and I find me no, you
hand me the remotes when Ifinally sit down to eat.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
These last weeks you tell me to find something to
watch, and I'm putting it on themiddle because we ain't
finished the middle yet.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Oh, the middle's so great.
Sue graduated.
I know she's in college now.
My girl has grown up, she'sleft the nest.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Yep, it's just a good show.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
That is just such a good show.
I could go back and watch itagain.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
I know you could, because you missed the first.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Well, I've missed like the last four episodes
before we started watching ittoday.
We tried to watch a few inbetween church today I fell
asleep.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Oh, I did too.
Yeah, you fell asleep before Idid.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Yeah, I don't normally take naps.
Yeah, I did too.
Yeah, you fell asleep before Idid.
Yeah, I don't normally takenaps but by golly.
Today I did yeah, but Icouldn't help it.
Yeah, I was fighting it.
I was like, why am I fightingit?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I know that's me like why am I fighting it?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
And then my contacts were dried to my eyes.
When I woke I couldn't see.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I had to go back there and scrape them off my
eyeballs and oh, that's a badthing it was terrible.
Why don't you just take youreyes out?
No, we call it taking your eyesout, taking your contacts out,
but it's like I can't that's toomuch trouble like it doesn't
even put them back in.
I don't even have them out now.
I mean, it's dark, why not?
Why do I not got them out rightnow?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I don't have mine out either.
I don't know why I'm wearing myreading glasses.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
I was going to say you've got glasses on, I've got
something right here.
I was going to read oh, you'rereaders, oh yeah and it's hard
to put glasses on after these.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
You've got these headsets on, so I just left them
on.
I'll tell you what, though youwear glasses and wear these
headsets for 30 minutes orlonger Does it hurt, man it
starts hurting.
Maybe I that other podcast andwe, you know, we record, for
(24:22):
probably, I mean it might be twoand a half to three hours.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
When we record two episodes, I can't do it, and so
I've, I'm reading stuff andwe're going over stats and we're
talking about this and that anduh.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
So yeah, it starts killing your head around your
ears wearing these things.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So yeah, so so so we's gonna cook out.
All weekend we've been out ofpropane I got as far as all
summer long have not been.
This is my reasoning.
We have a black stone.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
It's a.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
It's a and I love to cook on it, but it needs to be
cleaned Like we need to likere-season it, so we've got to
clean it real good.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, the cleaning won't be bad, but then you have
to season it after cleaning.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
But I've got to where I can cook hamburgers, I can
cook steaks, I can cook hot dogsall in the air fryer and I'm
just like let's just do that andme or Jody, neither one, we
don't.
We don't fuss about it, we'relike okay, all right, I really
wanted to grill out.
I really wanted the black blacktop, black stone clean to grill
(25:30):
out.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
But so saturday I'd already decided.
You know what it's the end ofsummer and I'm finally gonna buy
a, a propane tank.
So I put an empty propane tankin the back of my truck.
You did.
Yeah, it's in the back of mytruck right now, but I put it in
there.
Saturday, when I left, had, youknow, a few errands to run and
when I came back, actually did Imeet you in Jasper.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
No, you met me at the grocery store at Gateway,
that's right.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
So yeah, that's right .
Speaker 1 (25:55):
To pick out meat to grill, to pick out meat to grill
on the Blackstone.
And we didn't even do it.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Didn't even get propane because we decided that
we're just going to use the airfryer.
Yeah, I just take the steaksand cut them up and it's called
steak bites and you put it inthe air fryer.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Well, it's like beef tips.
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
But chuck eyes, yeah, yeah, but chukkas, oh.
But.
So you get the chukkas.
They're my fave.
We marinate them for probablyfour hours.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
It was a while.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Yeah, leave them out, get them room temperature,
which it really wouldn't matter,because we're using it, because
usually, if you're going togrill them, I wouldn't, but if
you're air frying them, but theonly thing I'm satisfied with
the air fryer on the steak,except it takes the flavor away.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
That's the only thing this time, but it don't always
do that, so I don't knowsomething we're not the next one
.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
We're doing.
We're doing on.
I am getting propane and we'recooking.
I don't care.
We're done with air fryer whenit comes to steak.
You can do your other stuff,that's fine well, you know when
we do.
If I want a steak during thewinter, you can do pizza rolls
in the air fryer, but it takesremember it's crisper and it
seems like it takes the tasteaway too, like the insides
disappear.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Oh, that's because I done them too long.
That time I done them too long.
I don't know, the only thingabout the air fryer is y'all eat
so much.
I have to do two, I have tocook two different times, but
it's still so much better thanthe oven, because it takes the
oven forever to heat up.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
What happened to our Instapot?
We used to be big on theInstapot.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
I know yeah, potatoes .
I thought about potatoes theother day.
We hadn't had potatoes in awhile man that's all we put
those in the Instapot for 20, 25minutes.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
I think if you put the Instapot and then you have
the air fryer and you're cookingout of both of those, you'd
have an exceptional dinner.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Well, you know I do ribs in the Instapot.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
You've never had ribs like what's in an air fryer I
mean not air fryer.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Well, you cook them in the Instapot and then, um I
cook them in apple cider vinegarand um I done a dr pepper last
time, and then, um you take themout, you put your barbecue
sauce on them and you put themin the air fryer to um to get
the barbecue sauce, um, what'sthe word?
(28:15):
Like a glaze on it yeah,there's a word for it.
Of course I can't think of it,but anyway.
So yeah, that was our grillingout for labor day but you pull
it on the rib, it comes right up.
It's really unbelievable howgood it is.
It's from that instapotsteaming them like the instapot
really does a number it.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
That bone just comes off and that meat is so good, so
good.
Oh my goodness, we might haveto have those next week.
Yeah, you talk about it.
It don't sound that great.
That's the number.
That bone just comes off, andthat meat is so good, so good.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Oh, my goodness, we might have to have those next
week.
Yeah, we'll get you to talkabout it.
It don't sound that great rightnow because we just ate.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Oh yeah, we just ate, we ate finger foods at church
for the football tailgate thing.
But the brownies I had thatfudge brownie.
You had two brownies ice cream,had some strawberries and
blueberries.
Ain't nothing like cold, coldstrawberries and blueberries
love it, I'm I'm stuffed, andthen drank two cups of tea I
(29:05):
didn't even know.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
You got two cups of tea.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I got you one, then you got another I hadn't even
finished my other one, but whileI was up I thought I'm just
gonna grab another one, just incase okay, so I didn't have to
get up again.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
I got you.
Yeah, they were smaller cups, Imean.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
So yeah, We've kind of figured out at these socials
we have at church or fellowships, to go to the dessert table
first, go ahead and grab, you Goget the dessert.
Because the line can be so longto get the regular food that
it's not picked over on thedessert.
You go ahead and go there firstand just get whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Who doesn't love dessert first?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Oh my goodness, who made that rule?
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
That you have to eat regular food first.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Don't eat your dessert I don't know.
Yep, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
You got a roadside oddity or anything.
No.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
I don't, are you?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
trying to take mine away from, but I thought that
was going to be your thing.
Every week we'll do a roadside.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
There hadn't been a good one, I hadn't seen a good
one.
You want me to talk?
About this ice hotel yes,because you want to Switzerland,
go right ahead.
Anybody been to?
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Switzerland, I haven't.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
You going to carry me one day, you ever seen the
Northern Lights.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
You going to carry me Besides that time that you put
the way and look up in the skyin alabama and you can see it,
which is a sham scam sham shamshammy scam.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
All right, let's go.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
All right the ice hotel.
Uh, it's in switzerland.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
I've already flipped through a few pages there's an
ice thing in georgia, I think isthere, uh, the world's first
and largest hotel built out ofthe snow and ice.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Ice hotel has been reincarnated in a new rendition
every winter for the last threedecades.
Three decades, that's a longtime, that's three, that's three
plus zero.
Added together is 30.
Let's see Every year with abroad new art to experience.
Okay, I'd kind of me, let mestart over.
(31:00):
Let me go here.
Uh, during an intense period incan, what is this word?
Capital?
J u, k, k a s, j, I'm not evengonna say it.
So an intense period in blank.
During November and earlyDecember every year, the empty
(31:20):
space on the riverbank turnsinto a majestic hotel made of
ice and snow.
Doesn't that sound?
I wish I could see thesepictures.
Let's talk about the hotel.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I wish you'd just take me.
Yeah, why don't you just takeme?
Speaker 2 (31:33):
So during five months , guests from all over the world
experience the art and icehotel winter, before it melts
down in spring and the loan fromits adjacent I can't even read
these words something from theriver returns.
So besides the 15 to 20standard ice rooms in the Winter
(31:58):
Hotel, it also houses 12 artsuites, uniquely designed and
handcrafted, all of them createdfor the very first time.
So let's talk about the 12suites.
The art suites are individuallydesigned and sculpted.
I can't even say that either.
(32:19):
Skip that.
The artists, perhaps fromGermany, uk or the US, have been
picked from over 200 applicantsand invited to make the suite
you'll be sleeping in.
Each suite is unique and hasnever been created before.
How about that?
How?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
about that?
How about that?
Speaker 2 (32:39):
All right, the ice room 15 to 20 rooms, Our
standard rooms with ice decorand a bed made of ice.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
No.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
I wanted to create a feeling of being embraced and
protected by the ice.
A good night's sleep for allguests.
Joanne Larson, the artist ofour standard ice rooms.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
Is this the place that the dude you watch on
youtube?
Speaker 2 (33:02):
simon wilson.
If you check him out on youtube, he's got a youtube channel.
He goes around and checks theseplaces out jody's addicted to
him, oh yeah he fly, he justgoes.
He'll ask somebody wherethey're from and if, wherever it
is, he'll fly there anyway.
He just documents what it's allabout.
He.
He flew, uh, from dubai tosomewhere in first class and we
(33:24):
watched that and it was, was itnot?
Unbelievable?
I like the train one yeah, buthe, it was like you're in your
own little oh, yeah, yeah, yeahon the jet, and then you had a
uh.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
And it closed, right yeah everything closed, like a
room.
Yeah, then you had, like I'mgoing to call them servants.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
They came around, yeah, and was handing you out
stuff.
It was just unbelievable.
I think it was $6,500,something like that for that
first class.
I think Might have been morethan that.
But yeah, check him out, heeven does.
You said the trains um one ofthem he went.
Where did he go?
(34:03):
Somewhere in europe?
But he gets first class oneverything, kind of just shows
you what it's all about and it'spretty neat one of them was a
24 hour ride or a 48 hour ride.
He had a a uh like a littlesuite that it would sleep for,
so these beds and everythingpoured out.
But then he went around to theregular seating was just chairs
(34:28):
and these people had paid forthese seats and that's what you
were in for the 40-somethinghours.
You didn't have a bed.
He didn't recline back, nothinglike that.
He did that.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
It didn't recline back.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Nothing like that Can't do that.
It was crazy, all right.
So Ceremony Hall it's a uniquewedding venue, so our Ice
Ceremony Hall is also located inthe Winter Hotel, together with
the best of the building.
It returns to the river inspring, but love is eternal.
Let's see.
(35:03):
Let me see.
This is an intimate venueaccommodating around 35 to 40
people, with walls and ceilingmade of snow, and the altar
details and benches are made ofpristine natural ice and benches
are made of pristine naturalice.
It is also very suitable forthose considering to renew their
vows or a solemn blessingceremony.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Are you trying to tell me this is where we're
going?
Speaker 2 (35:26):
in September.
Maybe, so, maybe, so what doyou think about that?
Speaker 1 (35:32):
I don't think I could do it, why it's too cold.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
You think so?
Speaker 1 (35:36):
Yes, I think I couldn can handle it.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
Now.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
I'd like to see it, but I don't think I can handle
it.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
I'm going to go into the tickets and availability to
see what this is.
If I can find it, you mighthave to talk for a minute.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
I don't got nothing to say.
Really, it's bedtime.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Bed ain't bedtime?
Not yet.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
It's 8 o'clock.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
It's time, bed, ain't bedtime, not yet.
It's eight o'clock, it's abedtime, it's a winding down
time.
I don't know what, uh,switzerland, I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
The conversion rate for money is, yeah, no clue.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Yeah, sorry on that one anyway, so that's not gonna
help yeah, you're no help nope,my bad look how the water's
rippling like it looks weird.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Somebody just turned their bright light on over there
too it looks like water.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
It's dark now.
I mean where it was, it waslighter when we started this and
now it's completely water, butit's dark now.
I mean where it was.
It was lighter when we startedthis and now it's completely
dark.
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Yeah, it's dark.
Oh, they turned their light offthe lake was hopping today,
though, before that wind blew upso tomorrow or this will come
out.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
What is it?
Labor day uh, yeah so I hopeeverybody has a good labor day,
hope everybody's off, doesn'thave to work.
It doesn't really make sense tome because, uh, labor day,
everybody's off, work.
Shouldn't you be laboring?
Shouldn't you be getting afterit at work?
No, I've been getting after itenough have you yeah yeah, I
(37:14):
think all holidays should be onsaturday.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
That's what I think, but not all places are closed,
so that really don't matter.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
But if you put it on Saturday, it'll help more people
to be able to be off work.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
You think so?
Speaker 2 (37:27):
I do, but then it'll make more people madder because
they're like I could have got anextra day off Right, a
three-day weekend, what?
Speaker 1 (37:34):
are you?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
doing Jody, why are you changing this?
That's right.
I blame the government for allthis, oh okay why do we have
thank you?
Speaker 1 (37:40):
blame the government.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Why do we have that's right?
Why don't we have thanksgivingon thursdays?
I don't know, doesn't matterthe date, we're gonna throw it
on a thursday that's right why?
I don't know, why don't we dochristmas that way?
I don't know.
Doesn't make sense.
Put them all on a saturday.
That's what I say.
It really messes me up when youhave a holiday following a
(38:01):
different day every year,because some days for me are
harder than others when it comesto working.
So if I've got to be off thatday like a Christmas and that's
a really rough day for me I'vegot to figure out how to squeeze
that in on other days.
Am I boring you over there?
Speaker 1 (38:16):
no, I'm good you sure ?
Speaker 2 (38:17):
yes, you look like I was boring you over there.
No, I'm good, you sure.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yes, looked like I was boring you.
No, I don't.
Anyway, all right, it's abouttime to wrap her up.
Yep, they've heard enough of us.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
They're done with us.
All right, we're still going toget to the Little Debbie Park
