Skeet shooting and kiosks at fast food places

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm actually looking up the name of this, uh, the
name of this this place that we went to when
we went to dag Garnet, I knew.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
It dag Gone. Is that a town in Michigan?

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Now, Dad Gaunet, I'm looking for.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Just list of Dad Gummt.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
I'm all there it is. I was. I was like,
i gotta find the name of this place. It's called
the Sporting Club at the Farm. And it's a you know,
it's a clay pigeon uh, and they and it's basically
you go out on this property and this is down
in well New Albany, Indiana. It's down where my sister
lives where we were over the weekend. We went to

(00:44):
a family reunion down there. And so this Sporting Club
at the Farm, you go there and they do shooting competitions,
all kinds of different stuff. And it's the coolest thing
because you're in this basically this wooden kind of you know,
it's elevated where you're standing and they're kind of like

(01:06):
bays and it's covered. And then out where you're shooting
there's like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
and nine, and it's all different stations out there. Well
you have a remote that's up there with you and
you push like two and where there's a big two
out on the grass that's the angle of the clay

(01:28):
that's gonna and they go all different directions, you like,
skeet shoot.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yeah, I've never done it before.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
You've never shot clay. Vigils was shotgunned. No, Oh my gosh,
it is uh man, it's so fun. Oh my god.
I've been doing this for years and years and years
with my dad way back. Well, I got a I
got a twelve gage Mossburg Riot Combo twelve gauge and
it has a shorter barrel and a pistol grip, or

(01:55):
you can put on the you know, the regular stock
and then the longer barrel for it.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Pistol grip changes everything with a shotgun. Well, it absolutely
accuracy is so much better.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Yeah, especially if it's a person across from you. It's
great home protection. You just get in the vicinity and
oh yeah, or you just rack up and that usually
gets everybody's attention to something like that. But we were
doing that out there. Well Stone wanted to go and
Josephine wanted to go, so I said, yeah, okay, and

(02:26):
we had some of the other young uns out there
with us as well, but they were like, we're just
gonna watch because I was like, you know, Stone, do
you wanna He's shaking his head now. He didn't want to.
He didn't want any part of that. So Josephine finally
she got up the courage and my brother in law
Eric had a twenty gauge with him and I don't

(02:48):
know how much do you have. I mean you shot
shotguns before. Oh yes, okay, so twenty gauge less kick than.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
As trol gauge, right, And that's kind of funny how
the higher the gauge, the smaller the round I mean
this pell and so forth.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah. Yeah, and then you get into four ten, which
is three numbers, and they're even smaller.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
But so he was like, yeah, she probably would do
okay with the twenty gauge. Well, she was like working
up to it, working up to it, and so finally
I said, look, we don't have to do any Clay's,
We don't do any clay pigeons. You can just you know,
just aim it out there and shoot it, just to
see what it feels like. Because they're both like man
watching everything and seeing you know, twelve gags is pretty

(03:30):
good kick, especially if you're using high brass or you
put a pumpkin ball in it or any of that stuff.
And yeah, which you're not going to use that for
skeet anyway, for clays. So she shoots and I go,
so was that as bad? And I was standing there
with her and she goes, yeah, that wasn't It wasn't
that big of a deal. I go, you want you
want to try to shoot a clay and she's like, yeah,

(03:50):
the things you guys are doing the clay pit. I'm
like yeah, she goes, yeah, okay, I'll do that. So
one is the easiest location. It's kind of below you,
and it launches it just straight away, so you're you're
already kind of in line with it. You just kind
of got a judge as it floats out there before
it starts to fall. When I tell you she had one,
this twenty gage is just one shell at a time.

(04:13):
She put another shell in it and she I said,
you just say pull, and the she's like pull, boom,
she powdered the like she exploded one shot. She had
never shot a shotgun except for the time, but like,
maybe I don't know two minutes before that, and she said, yeah,
I'll try it her first shot. I go, Mike, drop,
You're done.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
That's awesome.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
You just tell people you're like. It was really it
was crazy. The whole everybody's like, what, like clapping and stuff.
It was hilarious. But I said, you want to try
that again? And everyone's like, no, no, no, no, don't
let her do it, like she's one hundred percent right now,
don't don't. She has that story to tell people now.
It was funny. Man, it was hilarious.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
I said, she shoot again. She did not good for
her because I had I'll make this really quick. My
friend was shooting his dad's crossbow in his backyard twenty
five yards for He's just shooting, shoot and shooting and shoot,
because I'm not quit until I get up bulls. I
never shot one before I go I drove. I was
like sixteen, I gotta let me shoot it. I hit
a bulls blazer. I could not have hit the broadside.

(05:17):
I hit the little tea and the bulls. I pulled
out and he goes, this is be I have not
shot a crossbow since I was sixteen.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
That's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
I am arguably the greatest crossbow shooter in the history
of humans.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
You're one hundred percent with uh with the bulls eye. Yeah,
now shooting clay, that's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Great.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah. So she just left it at that. Stone said no.
I kept trying. I said, man, I'll stand there with y'all.
I'll help you kind of hold it. I said. The
biggest thing, just don't let go of it. I don't
know if you've ever looked at like shotgun fails or
shotgun meme failed like those you ever watched any of those?

Speaker 2 (05:56):
But I don't want to Well, no, get hurt.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Well, people do get hurt, but it's more like where
the gun just like black and the barrel hits them
like between the eyes and like knocks them down or
you know, they look and they're bleeding or what it splits.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Them open or whatever.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Just because people don't hold onto it, they're thinking it's
not gonna I just kept telling Josie, I'm like, dude,
you death gripped this thing right now. I just want
you to Now, that's not gonna be good for competition,
clearly and all of that. But I just said, you've
got to hold onto this thing. That's the biggest thing.
Keep it pointed down range and don't let go of it,
no matter what you know it's like and it won't be.

(06:33):
And she said, this is nowhere near his battle thought
it was gonna be or whatever. And so it's kind
of funny.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
First time I shot a traditional shotgun. It was a
double barrel shotgun and I held onto it fine, but
I did not brace myself for the kick against my
shoulder that was to come. Yes, that I was almost
done with shotguns forever at that point.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
Twelve Gage, Yes, Yeah, was it sitting off a little
bit like you didn't have it snug?

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Well, that's and I just wasn't prepared for that kind
of that's go against my shoulder.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
Yeah, you gotta have it snug. So it just kind
of moves you as opposed to like getting punched by
it because you don't want to have it. That's what
I was explaining to her. I'm like, do not just
kind of rest it there. I was like, you gotta
hold on to it, you know, kind of a thing.
But it was hilarious and good for her.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Absolutely. I just I was like, hold in one.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
I was. I was proud Papa definitely during that and
she did. She did, really really.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
We was so, you're getting her a shotgun for Christmas?

Speaker 3 (07:29):
No?

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Absolutely not. No, there'll be no shotgun in her room.
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (07:35):
I got this for you, but I'm keeping it in
a safe in the basement, and I'm locking the basement
door and posting a guard. You can never touch it,
never see it, never use it. But it's yours. Merry Christmas.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
I also have to say this too, have you I'm
sure you've gone into McDonald's or fill in the blank
restaurant fast food restaurant where there's kiosks and they're everywhere. Yeah,
and then there's a register that's up behind the counter
that nobody mans and you have to use the kiosk

(08:13):
and feel your way through ordering. Have you done that?

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Or I won't do that? Okay, I won't use a kiosk.
I have to talk to a human being so I
can yell at somebody when there's too many pickles or something.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
The taco bell at King's Island, we went into this
taco bell and I kid you not, there are no
registers behind the counters. It's there are two kiosks in
front of the counter. And they said I said, can
I just tell and they were, no, you have to.
You have to use the kiosk. I kid, you not chuck.

(08:46):
The first of all, the music was blaring. I mean
they're playing like Miley cyrus over the house, like the
speakers inside there. When I walked in, I couldn't even
hear myself. I was like, and I'm half deaf, think
about it. I've been a rock d my whole life,
and I was like, oh my gosh. Secondly, we start
trying to figure it out, and these three girls that

(09:07):
were working there were standing right behind the counter like
literally I could have reached out and touched one of them.
There's a lawsuit and they were standing there like goofing
off the whole time. We're trying to figure out how
to order, and I looked up. I go, I'm trying
to look for a chili cheese burrito and they were like, yeah,
those aren't on the regular menu. They go, when you

(09:29):
cash out, just hit cash. You're gonna pay cash and
then we'll have somebody in the drive through ring it
up for you. And I'm not kidding. I was in shock.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
So you have to check out twice.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
It was unbelievable. Man, I've never in my life. They
just looked at us like, you know what, this is
the norm. And they literally were standing there, goofing off
the whole time, not doing anything. But yet they couldn't
take the order. We had to figure it out on
the kiosk.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
See, and I order an item when I do go
to Taco Bell, very few times I go. Now, but
I there was the chicken chipotlet melt, which is not
a menu item, so you have to I got a massage,
so I guarantee you that's not on a kiosk. So
there's no point in me going I love those things.
They're like, oh the item, yeah, but if I if

(10:16):
I'm going to have to you know, check out twice
in order to buy them. No, you're you've taken the
convenience out of convenience food.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
At that point, I started thinking maybe it's drived through
only from now on. But then some of those are
AI and and you've got something AI talking back to
him that gets it wrong. You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
I'm just like talking to me to take the whole
then to have the fake when you pull up, welcome
to our restaurant. May I take your order please? Yeah?
I'd like to get the number three, Cobo. Do you
want to pick us on that? What happened to the
other guy?

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Right?

Speaker 2 (10:54):
That's a according? Can you put it back on?

Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah? I hate to sound like the old get off
my luck, but the thing is, I get it. If
you're going, all right, we only have two people to
run the entire store, and they got to be back
there cooking or you know, making the orders. But when
you have three extra people and there are other people
working in the kitchen and they're all just kind of
standing around goofing off, and you're like, hey, can you

(11:19):
take can you put that? And they they're like, no,
you have to do that? On the I was like,
what has happened to these places?

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Chuck?

Speaker 1 (11:27):
I'll never get used to that.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
Would you like to add a tip? Oh? Man?

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Holy cal I will say this. The redeeming part of
this is I said we're going to have probably twenty
or plus items. They actually nailed all of it. It
was all correct.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Wow, I couldn't a plus, So there it is.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
I will give them that
