Something that you would do that ifyou that you did intentionally that you look
back on now and go like A, I can't believe I didn't die,
or b uugh, that kind ofI don't want to say embarrassing. Everybody
does embarrassing things, but it's like, wow, was I really stupid for
doing that? Like I saw thisyesterday, it was very easy for me
to think of what mine was.When we were kids, we used to
(00:21):
go climbing around in all the sewagepipes in uh in Houston that led into
the bayous. You could have gottenyou could have drowned in there, you
could have gotten stuck in there,anything, and you could have been attacked
by something in there. But weused to go run around in those all
the time, all the time andnever thought. We also tried to jump
a by you in a buddy's car. That was a bad idea God,
(00:43):
yeah, but yeah, But allwe did was kind of just go right
down into the bayou and put hiscar and nose first into the bayou,
so that we thought like this isgoing to be awesome, and we went
Diane, we went flying to theend of this like dead end row,
thinking we are just going to jumpthe bayou. Now it just went right
(01:03):
down the hill, right into thebayou nose first, straight down. Didn't
you also run across rooftops? Thatwasn't you know what? In hindsight,
I don't look at that as beingthat bad. No, No, I'll
tell you why. I'll tell youwhy. Hey, Sharon, hold on
one second for me. Okay,hold on one second. Join your cash.
Have a great weekend, hey,christ find me some fun people.
(01:26):
Find me some people that were donewhen they were younger, and we all
were, we all were. I'mnot singling anybody out eight six six to
Elliott eight six six two three fivefive four six eight. We lived in
houses. I think they were calledtrack houses track homes, but they were
literally my roof to the next doorneighbor's roof. And these were single family
(01:48):
homes. They couldn't have been morethan twelve to fourteen inches. So we
would start at one end of thestreet. We'd climb up on a fence,
get up on that person's house,and we would run all the way
down to the other end of thestreet, running on rooftops. Understood they
were close together, but a fall, yeah, probably would still hurt.
(02:09):
Oh if you fell oh, absolutely, you were getting hurt so dangerous.
Yeah, but there was no likethere's no sidewalk the well. No,
you were going down onto grass oryou were going to pale yourself on a
fence. But think about how closeyour stride when you're running, as twelve
is more than twelve people trip.Oh you would like have to go up
(02:30):
and down the rooftops. So yeah, I mean you could trip and go
rolling off. I guess we neverdid. In your mind, you sort
of ranked what was most dangerous.Then you found the bayous stuff. Oh,
being in the bayou was far moredangerous than running on somebody's roof.
I mean, I guess somebody wholived in the house could have gotten mad
and come after us. Oh wecan what if this thing to death?
(02:51):
Amen? Amen, I could havefallen through a hole in the roof,
fell right in their fireplace and burnedto death. Like Granny didn't die though,
damn mad jokes on you? Noface gone, you didn't die.
I just I've really struggled with yourfamily this week. No, no,
but that was yeah, I meanwe we would, we'd run the whole
neighborhood up on rooftops. Does Dianehave one I mean I don't really know
(03:15):
from like childhood. The stupidest thingI did was in my twenties hitch hiking
in a foreign country. That's upthere. Yeah, that's really like like
you could have been no disrespect.But isn't that when they found you passed
out with like leaves in your underwear. No, that was in Rafford.
Oh and I wasn't. I wasn'tpassed out. I did have leaves in
(03:37):
my hair because I fell a lot. I thought you got leaves in your
underwear first and only time I dranknight train. No, yeah, I
was covered in leaves when I finallymade it back to my apartment. Okay,
all right, No, hitch hikingin a foreign country is stupid.
Yeah, but like but like likeeven just like reckless kid stuff like you
know, running the train tracks andbut I don't want to say what I
(04:00):
want to say because that sounds itsounds irresponsible. But we had we had
trains that ran by our house.Dude, we were under train tracks all
the time. I mean that wasthe popular cut through to get to school.
If you wasn't a cut through,that was part of the playground,
Like we would just literally we justgo run around on the tracks, and
that's it's very dangerous to do.Yeah, because you hear of people getting
(04:21):
hit by trains all the time,all the time. Yeah, all the
time. But like I'm not inlisten, I'm not making excuses for myself,
but I don't think of that asbeing dangerous. For what we were
doing, it is dangerous. LikeI would never tell my kids it's cool
go play on a train track,but like we didn't have AirPods in you
could you could hear them. I'mnot again, I realize that sounds irresponsible,
(04:43):
but to me, being in theBayous was worse than playing on the
train tracks. We just play onthe train tracks all the time. But
you've rattled off quite a few forany of them. Grew up with bad
kids. While doing any of them, did you think to yourself, this
is day the bay Us we did, so that's again why it's your number
one. Yeah, the Bayus wethought were dangerous for a number of reasons,
(05:10):
getting stuck, massive amount of watercoming down, god knows what,
animals, it just disease that,Yes, that was dangerous. Running the
roofs wasn't dangerous to us. Playingon the train tracks weren't dangerous to us.
It was just what we did.I'm going to give my time over
to Kristen. Oh my god,I bet she's got a laundry list.
(05:32):
I can't. I can't come withany like barefoot with the turbine. The
first thing for me was walking inGeorgetown by myself at night. So that
doesn't count, I guess. Andactually I hope nothing happened in front of
(05:53):
uh, in front of Lake Diplomat. That's not sor the O Cafe Monica,
UH Milano, Milano. Sorry,God damn it, Elliott. As
of late, people have been worriedthat mother wouldn't like that. I hang
out of the window to fix Christen'sinflatable every night, but from my childhood.
(06:14):
But there's a balcony right there.Now, if you fall out on
the balcony, he said, Lindsaywon't do it, right, Lindsay won't
do it now. I was readingLindsay one of the pole. Oh,
that's right, I was reading yesterday. I found it this stumbled in this
whole rabbit hole. There was aguy who lived in an apartment and lived
on the second floor, and hewould never use the like go out the
(06:36):
front door of the apartment and godown the stairs and leave. He would
always just tumble out of the secondstory window. What why, that's just
how he got down. Yeah.I wouldn't jump my bike, and I
always wore a helmet, so Kristinnever wos Kristin. Yeah, all right,
(06:58):
turn yourself on, Kristin, turnyourself on. She's had a good
five minutes now to rank hers.I have three that I can think of.
Okay, So we were a tvingno helmets. We went mudding.
I think we were about like fourteenor fifteen, and I was driving.
I had my friend Brienne on theback. We flipped. I was fine,
(07:24):
but she like destroyed her knee right, probably tore her acl So that
was one another one. Oh yeah, we uh. I used to sneak
out of the house and go down, take the book my bicycle down about
a mile and a half to myfriends, the keeners, and we would
either light the road on fire becauseit was just like a dirt road,
(07:46):
and then I was helping one ofher because you know, I had a
can of kerosene on me at alltimes. We didn't stay inside. We're
like, oh, it was thissummertime we're like, oh, what can
we do sneaking out? So wedidn't sit the road on fire road on
really let's see how far it cango before like we wake up the parents
(08:09):
or anything. And we would likejoints on fire and get high. So
you never did that, never drank, just blew stuff up. And then
one time there we go we hada bonfire and we kept seeing like,
oh, what what can we throwin there to really light it up?
And so we were we threw anold paint cannon and we're like, why
(08:31):
is nothing happening? As soon asyou looked in well, we got closer
and uh and ash, uh itreally exploded and ash went down my friend's
shirt and she has still to thisday has scars. And you could feel
the heat. And then that wokeup our friend's parents. Did you do
(08:52):
did you do for for stuff likethat? Like a big one? Now
that that like a lot of parentsor like a lot of people have like
fires or solo stoves or stuff.So like kids now like this is a
huge thing where they go fire jumping. Did you guys do that? You
jump over the fire? Yeah,yeah, we did that all the time.
Yeah, but what would you dowhat would like like if your friend
(09:13):
would let's say you and Diane,not this Diane, the fun one.
We're jumping fire pits. What wouldyou do as Diane was getting ready to
jump you? My friends would havea hose in case you got lit.
No, no, that's that's nosmart no lighter fluid that way. Oh
my god, it was already flamesare already too high. The no,
(09:35):
it's never too high. It'll behigher when you jump through. That's a
big one. Now got one?Oh yeah, go ahead, Okay,
this seems like a pissing match.Oh we murdered someone, well this one
as he was mouthy. We usedto climb up the beams in the barn
and really high up and then barefootand jump into the horn that was just
(10:00):
picked. And I feel bad becauseit was like a week or two later
after we did that, my friend'suncle he had to climb up for work
and he fell and became paralyzed.That's all I got. I thought you
were going to say like we feltbad because we contaminated the corner or something
(10:24):
that I did think of one whileshe was going on and thank you,
Kristen, thank you, thank you. I would oh you jump fires.
No, I would go sledding inthe snow, and no, I have
a little more to my story thanjust that. No, no, no,
(10:46):
But I was gonna guess because thiscomes up a lot that people did.
What's that? Were you truck sledding? I don't know what that is
behind a vehicle? Yeah, wellyou just tie a rope like you sit
on something like cardboard or something.You tie a rope to the back of
the truck and just go sledding thatway. No, occasionally I stop short,
whoa right under? I would standsurfer style killer And I admit my
(11:16):
time very shallow. My time waswas well. My time was well yoled
the past tensive yield. My timewas well yoled to Kristen, where am
I going? Like to Hi,yelliead the morning? Yeah? Hi,
who's this? What'd you do?Many things? But uh one good one

That's scary. Yeah. Well,the next thing we did. I
(13:07):
grew up in rest then and Istill live in Reston. And I don't
know if you've ever been to LakeAnne. Sure, but jumping off of
those little like stone overlooks, youhave no idea how deep that water is?
Right? Yeah? No, youhave no no in your You're all
you need to know is that thing? Is that thing's only six eight inches?

would. Bet might have gone firejumping. Is that what it's called?
(13:50):
Or is there a slang for that? I should look out? Yeah,
what's my hashtag on TikTok? TheWe always just used to call it fire
jumping. I don't know. Maybenow because everybody's got maybe it's solo stove
jumping. I have no idea.Or is it like the Glizzie leap whatever
the hell you call hot dogs?Why would I be jumping hot dogs?
Don't people sometimes do the hot dogsand marshmallows over the solo stoves? The
(14:13):
I mean you can, yeah,okay, I'm trying to set your pants
on fire. I'm not trying tomake a hot dog. Where am I
going? Line seven? Hi Elliein the morning? But yes, glizzies,
hell, Hey, what's going on? Dude? Thank you? It
was good we were jackass before jackasswhat'd you do? But we used to
call it you name it, butwe would sword fight with florescent light bulbs,
(14:39):
like your big long six foot ones. Oh yeah, I didn't realize
they would pull a toxis gas.I'm still here though, so I'm good.
That's good. I jumped off thebridge in West Virginia, off the
Interstate Bridge off of sixty eight.Did you really? Yeah? That was
pretty cu Oh my god. Bythe way, hey, thank you,
(15:07):
sir. I want to watch somebodysword fight with the Uh. The only
problem with that, I feel likethe sword fight would be over like that.
Yeah. They do tend to breakit inopportune times, so if you're
actually slamming them together, yeah,they're done. Hi Ellie in the morning.
(15:33):
Yeah, Hi. We used todo Roman candle fights. Oh yes,
absolutely that I you know, it'sfunny. That didn't even come to
mind. We used to do thatalso, although you know what, I
feel like, whether it was whetherit was bottle rocket fights or Roman candle
fights, in my head, Idon't maybe just because everybody does it,
(15:56):
I don't feel like I don't putthat up there and go like, oh
crap. We could have died.Now, the truth is you could have,
but I don't. I mean,but it is one of those things
where if I saw my kids doingit, I would encourage them to please
stop that day. We shouldn't thatwe should be doing. But yeah,
no, everybody had roman candle fights. I can not everybody. Most people
(16:21):
did you at least have like likebottle rocket fights? What where you would
point bottle rocket fights were knowing you'reasking him, Oh, that's right.
You guys weren't even allowed to havesparklers. Yeah, my mom, well
no, we like my grandparents goggles. And now I'm very anti sparklers,
(16:41):
and I get super upset when Isee photos from uh, our kids,
friends, parents when they're at theirhouses and my son or daughter has left
their coat inside when they're running around. I don't like that, Dad,
that's the list. Christie, youalways had your coat on, no coats,
(17:03):
no shoes. Hi, Ellie hadthe morning? Yeah? Hi,
who's this? This is Brandon?How's it going? Ellie? Good?
Good? What can I do foryou? So we used to go on
one side of a field and shootat each other with shotguns with bird shot
and make it rain on each other. Jesus shut it down. Kristen's like,
(17:26):
yeah, I did that in fourthgrade. Shut it down. I
only did this once and thankfully nobodygot hurt. My two younger siblings and
I climbed out the bedroom window andacross the gap to the balcony outside our
dad's room. We lived on thetwenty second floor of an apartment building.
(17:48):
My god, can you imagine Ilike those height ones? No, I
can't, and I'm not afraid ofheights. Sell you. It is.
As a young teenager, my friendsand I would sneak into the local country
club late at night, get wasted, and then climb up the fire escape
(18:11):
to the roof and then jump offthree stories into the country club pool.
Jump in that one to me,like you would get mad at your kids
for like breaking into the country club, the jump and whatever get hurt.
The you could get hurt coming offof a diving board. A lot of
people, you know which one?You know what we haven't heard? Pass
(18:33):
out game? Was that something thatgoes back? Has that been around forever?
I feel like Tyler do that?The no? Dan did? The
Yeah, that's why it was comingout of my mouth. I was like,
that doesn't sound right. Pass outgame. The no, but then
yeah, no, the passout gamegoes way back. I thought that was
(18:56):
a social media think the I mean, I think that's what brought it back.
But yeah, no, that goesway back. So you had the
pass out game, and then youhave the other ones that were like really
stupid tongues and fans. There yougo, Kristen, wait for the funny
voice. No, you don't putyour tongue in the fan for the funny
voice. You just talk into thefan. Yeah, yeah, no putting
(19:18):
your tongue in the fan. JesusChrist trying to stop it with your tongue.
Sorry cheese and Rice Christ. Isn'tthat hilarious? Yeah, that's what
she says. But she risked lifeand the lives So like every other weekend,
Roads on Fire. Hi Elliot inthe morning. Hello, Hi,
(19:42):
yeah, hi, real quick,what can I do for you? So
in college, anytime we got drunk, we would shoot our appliances with our
shotguns. So the front the frontof our lawn was just littered with blown
(20:03):
up George Foreman's and blenders and anythingeverything you can imagine that we that we
had as an appliance manage to thefront lawn all right, very good,
very good. Thank you, sir, told you for the last call that
involved firearms to shut it down.Hey. Hey, remember Tyler sleded one
(20:30):
standing up more than once
Something that you would do that ifyou that you did intentionally that you look
back on now and go like A, I can't believe I didn't die,

as he was mouthy. We usedto climb up the beams in the barn
and really high up and then barefootand jump into the horn that was just
(10:00):
picked. And I feel bad becauseit was like a week or two later
after we did that, my friend'suncle he had to climb up for work
and he fell and became paralyzed.That's all I got. I thought you
were going to say like we feltbad because we contaminated the corner or something
(10:24):
that I did think of one whileshe was going on and thank you,
Kristen, thank you, thank you. I would oh you jump fires.
No, I would go sledding inthe snow, and no, I have
a little more to my story thanjust that. No, no, no,
(10:46):
But I was gonna guess because thiscomes up a lot that people did.
What's that? Were you truck sledding? I don't know what that is
behind a vehicle? Yeah, wellyou just tie a rope like you sit
on something like cardboard or something.You tie a rope to the back of
the truck and just go sledding thatway. No, occasionally I stop short,
whoa right under? I would standsurfer style killer And I admit my

what's my hashtag on TikTok? TheWe always just used to call it fire
jumping. I don't know. Maybenow because everybody's got maybe it's solo stove
jumping. I have no idea.Or is it like the Glizzie leap whatever
the hell you call hot dogs?Why would I be jumping hot dogs?
Don't people sometimes do the hot dogsand marshmallows over the solo stoves? The

like your big long six foot ones. Oh yeah, I didn't realize
they would pull a toxis gas.I'm still here though, so I'm good.

problem with that, I feel likethe sword fight would be over like that.

actually slamming them together, yeah,they're done. Hi Ellie in the morning.
(15:33):
Yeah, Hi. We used todo Roman candle fights. Oh yes,
absolutely that I you know, it'sfunny. That didn't even come to
mind. We used to do thatalso, although you know what, I
feel like, whether it was whetherit was bottle rocket fights or Roman candle
fights, in my head, Idon't maybe just because everybody does it,
(15:56):
I don't feel like I don't putthat up there and go like, oh
crap. We could have died.Now, the truth is you could have,
but I don't. I mean,but it is one of those things
where if I saw my kids doingit, I would encourage them to please
stop that day. We shouldn't thatwe should be doing. But yeah,
no, everybody had roman candle fights. I can not everybody. Most people
(16:21):
did you at least have like likebottle rocket fights? What where you would
point bottle rocket fights were knowing you'reasking him, Oh, that's right.
You guys weren't even allowed to havesparklers. Yeah, my mom, well
no, we like my grandparents goggles. And now I'm very anti sparklers,
(16:41):
and I get super upset when Isee photos from uh, our kids,
friends, parents when they're at theirhouses and my son or daughter has left
their coat inside when they're running around. I don't like that, Dad,
that's the list. Christie, youalways had your coat on, no coats,
(17:03):
no shoes. Hi, Ellie hadthe morning? Yeah? Hi,
who's this? This is Brandon?How's it going? Ellie? Good?
Good? What can I do foryou? So we used to go on
one side of a field and shootat each other with shotguns with bird shot
and make it rain on each other. Jesus shut it down. Kristen's like,
(17:26):
yeah, I did that in fourthgrade. Shut it down. I
only did this once and thankfully nobodygot hurt. My two younger siblings and
I climbed out the bedroom window andacross the gap to the balcony outside our
dad's room. We lived on thetwenty second floor of an apartment building.
(17:48):
My god, can you imagine Ilike those height ones? No, I
can't, and I'm not afraid ofheights. Sell you. It is.
As a young teenager, my friendsand I would sneak into the local country
club late at night, get wasted, and then climb up the fire escape
(18:11):
to the roof and then jump offthree stories into the country club pool.
Jump in that one to me,like you would get mad at your kids
for like breaking into the country club, the jump and whatever get hurt.
The you could get hurt coming offof a diving board. A lot of
people, you know which one?You know what we haven't heard? Pass
(18:33):
out game? Was that something thatgoes back? Has that been around forever?
I feel like Tyler do that?The no? Dan did? The
Yeah, that's why it was comingout of my mouth. I was like,
that doesn't sound right. Pass outgame. The no, but then
yeah, no, the passout gamegoes way back. I thought that was
(18:56):
a social media think the I mean, I think that's what brought it back.
But yeah, no, that goesway back. So you had the
pass out game, and then youhave the other ones that were like really
stupid tongues and fans. There yougo, Kristen, wait for the funny
voice. No, you don't putyour tongue in the fan for the funny
voice. You just talk into thefan. Yeah, yeah, no putting
(19:18):
your tongue in the fan. JesusChrist trying to stop it with your tongue.
Sorry cheese and Rice Christ. Isn'tthat hilarious? Yeah, that's what
she says. But she risked lifeand the lives So like every other weekend,
Roads on Fire. Hi Elliot inthe morning. Hello, Hi,
(19:42):

shotguns. So the front the frontof our lawn was just littered with blown
(20:03):
up George Foreman's and blenders and anythingeverything you can imagine that we that we
had as an appliance manage to thefront lawn all right, very good,
