Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, hey, doing this to play Flurry Sports. We'll save
your day.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Can joke Swiss Sports inside Zack, can shake say get
it right?

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Fuck you?

Speaker 3 (00:23):
And another thing.

Speaker 4 (00:25):
Welcome back to the Flurry Sports podcast. We were doing
a podcast just for us and then we decided, Hey,
let's go live, start recording so you can get in
on it too. So you missed the past twenty five minutes,
It's been a good conversation. Paying Yeah, we're planning. Yeah,
we're talking about what we were going to talk about,
and then we just talked about it. So we'll see
if we decide we want to rehash the college football

(00:49):
or college sports. I forget those other college sports and
the college football, but the college football salary cap, which
is all we really care about, maybe a little bit
of college basketball. Supposedly, Cooper Flagger and fifty million dollars
this past year, tell me where that money came from?
He's Cooper Flag's just the equivalent of the Kentucky Derby.
But in college sports, like, where'd that money come from?
We don't know where it's coming from. But and al

(01:12):
is just a different form of money laundering. Apparently that's
what I've discovered. But Jake wants to talk about the NBA.
So that's why we went live. Because that is such
a very rare situation on the show, we figured we
may as well document it, so go ahead.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
I yeah, first off, this is a strategy based on
last week after Emily and I talked for day of
near two hours, which by the way, sorry, we backed
out and Zach was gone for one week, and it
really did shine a spotlight on you being the saint
of brevity.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Yeah, like it was like me, I mean win and
you guys were talking about fucking conspiracy theories, showing ads
on screen, doing stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
Like the start to the start was tough, absolutely, but
the we really cooked when we got to the Disney section.
It's a good watch. But I best way to keep
a podcast short started off air.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
I mean that's very true, that's very true. Technically we
have only been going for less than two minutes, which
seems wild since we've already covered college football. That's incredible.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
But for NBA. First off, sports got to stop. Sports
and sports talk have to stop doing this. We have
to stop shitting on like championship matchups. I think that's
such a funny thing to do, Like we get a
matchup and then we all debate was this a good one?

Speaker 4 (02:37):
Yeah, let's let's watch it, you know, like.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Before it happens. I also, but it's revealing of like
where we're at, of like you know where that never
happens the NFL because we're gonna which, by the way,
the answer to that is not for Adam Silver to
come out and compare his championship game too. This is
my thing with it, Adam, buddy, I know you listen

(03:01):
to the show. What world was an NFL comparison gonna
end good for you?

Speaker 4 (03:06):
You need to stop talking about us. Get our name
out your mouth. You understand that's all you think about
at night. Oh we used to have Christmas? Yeah you did,
you did, didn't You Stop talking about it because every
time we do, the Boogeyman shows up. Don't say the
NFL three teams in a row, because we're gonna appear
and take another day away from you. You think your

(03:26):
draft is cool, maybe we'll do a second draft that day,
you know.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
And everyone goes, oh, Adam thinks he's the NFL. Like,
no matter what you say, that's not gonna work. For
those who missed it. He went on first take I
think so. Yeah, first take and addressed this is the
thing addressed I guess accusations that this matchup is is
not good for the NBA, which is also a crazy thing.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Let me tell you why it doesn't suck.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
Yes, here we go, and is His answer was that,
you know, actually I agreed with his answer to he
gave the metaphor, which is, what else is he supposed
to say, besides, hey, small markets are fun, Like this
is a cool matchup. One of these teams is going
to leave an NBA champion for the first time. That's awesome, period.

(04:17):
Go home at him, say that, get out of there.
The games are great, which I don't know if that's
been true, but you know, say something to those effects.
And instead he said, you know, no one complained when
it was two small franchises in the NFL, small markets
in Pittsburgh and Green Bay.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
Yeah, fuck you. You don't know anything at that point, Like, okay,
so you're saying Title Town and then the franchise who's
tied for the most Super Bowls, that one, that's that's
the one you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Correct. And first off, everyone's been pointing that out, literally,
especially at that point because the Super by the way,
the Super Bowl, he's referring to his out of pocket
reference and he's like, I'll show these folks to the
small market. Series is good. He had to dig back
fifteen years. M hm, that's not a good signed.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
By the way, what what a full circle story? Talking
about Aaron Rodgers being the Steelers. Now this now Aaron
Rodgers is on the Steelers. It's the gift that keeps
on giving, that is the NFL.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
Yes, but almost to prove his point, if he if
he could have just summoned a little ball knowledge, if
he could have summoned some baseball knowledge. It happened two
years ago the Texas Rangers played the Arizona Diamondbacks. But
I just don't think he.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
That was the World Series matchup.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
That was the World Series matchup. Was the Rangers and
Diamondbacks both the last wildcard on their side. Yeah, no,
we talked. There's an episode of us saying that it
was a tough time for us.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
But I remember, I remember the picture for Arizona. Who's
a Rodeo. Yeah star, That's literally the only thing I
remember who won.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
That Rangers, Rangers want.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
It and Matt good for them.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
It was the same literally the same deal. Rangers and
Diamondbacks were like the series before, were super fun because
everyone had a wild card to cheer Ford. The only
issue was buff underdogs one and then it was like,
oh fuck, what do we do? But it was the
same deal where one team was gonna It would have
been the Diamondback second World Series, but same same idea,

(06:19):
like struggling franchise overall comes back, whoop whoop. But now
here we are. That was not the story of the
Stealers Packers.

Speaker 4 (06:30):
No. Also though, just a touch on that, just to
play full Devil's advocate, And I mean, you are a
baseball fan, so what's your personal opinion and what do
you think the general baseball opinion is? What was a
better World Series? Arizona Texas or Dodgers Yankees?

Speaker 3 (06:49):
So I think Dodgers Yankees, to go full antithesis to
the metaphor, would have been a better argument for silver
because I will say that I and most of baseball
would tell you that the Yankee series was better, and
I'm here to tell you it wouldn't have mattered what
the games were like. I guess that's the argument is
I would have gone NBA, though, But Adam Silver would

(07:11):
disagree with that. Any any Lakers Celtics series is gonna
be an all timer, even if it's a sweep like
the Dodgers Yankees was not competitive except for a few
dramatic moments, and it's one of the most talked about
world series ever, but it's not always that case. I
think the greatest world series in modern history was Cubbs

(07:35):
Cleveland Indians at the time in twenty sixteen. Like those,
Cleveland Chicago are like medium market. Also, by the way,
just for the record, Pittsburgh's still a top thirty market.
Like I don't know how far the list you go
before it's small market.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
Adam Silver could have literally talked about Buck Suns that
was a fun series. We had this exact same conversation then.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
I know, by the way, that was so fun. That
was such a fun time. Phoenix is a bigger market
than I think, but it's not that big though. I've
got the list up and this is so for folks.
This is sports mediawatch dot com. I've looked up market
size and it's from twenty twenty four. But it's my
household watching overall, So it might not be the best

(08:20):
metric because it definitely rewards. It essentially rewards folks that
have as many professional teams as possible, which is I
think why Phoenix is so high up is because they
have one in every sport, you know, besides you hockey.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
But it also takes into account that people are watching
it though, correct, correct, but LA, Like, yeah, obviously LA
is a huge market, but how many people are watching it?

Speaker 3 (08:47):
Absolutely? Yeah, like they Well, it's also like what everyone
talks about. To your point, New York is so much
higher than every other market in terms of watchability because
it consulates New Jersey and all the people that live there.
In sports based, they also have like ten fucking professional

(09:08):
teams like LA's got a lot, But it's even by
rating standards, it's a it's fifteen hundred less rating marks,
and I think they do that by like homes per
capita than New York City. And then it's almost the
same gap between LA and Chicago. And then there's a
bunch of like that next gap, but you know, it's

(09:29):
that's every sport and everything, so there's big marks there.
I will say by that metric in Minneapolis is very
comfortably like a medium market, which is interesting, like the
Twin Cities.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
Yeah, so I will say, though.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
I think everyone's a small market. That's that was my
other complaint, a small market. I mean in LA, everyone's
a small market. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
But like you're talking about these small markets, and they
picked out that he picked out the two worst examples
of all time, because not only are the historic and successful,
but yes, they're smaller markets who do nothing but live
and breathe those fucking teams.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
And also are comfortably to the most national teams in.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
The that as well. But even if you just look at
just those local markets, like if the Packers were in
the super Bowl, you know what percentage of green Bay's
population be watching the Super Bowl? Yeah, one hundred and
twenty five percent, because people would go to Green Bay
to watch it.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:28):
But with these teams, I think Indiana, I think I'm
giving them too much disrespect. But I feel like zone's
a true Pacers fan. Maybe there are. I understand it's
a basketball state. Whatever, Okay, See, I understand their home
arena is wild. I understand it's crazy. I understand a
lot of people are saying it's like a bomb went

(10:49):
off in Oklahoma City. I think it's a little too
soon for that. But even still, if you are a
thunderfan in Oklahoma City. You know where you're watching the game.
You're watching it there. No one's at home watching a
fucking Thunder game. I can guarantee it. Nobody.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Yeah it's Oklahoma could get there with the Thunder in
the same way the Pacers are for him. But but
that's I agree with you in the disrespect of the
Pacers only because Pacers fans are have been Pacers fans
for three decades and there's a lot of history there.
And last, I mean one hundred I it's listen and.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
You know who's you know who's Pacers fans, the sixty
five year old white guys who are like, oh, Pacers
are good, that's good. And then they turn it back on.
And I'm one of his biggest supporters.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
I like him.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
He's annoying as fuck, but I do like him because
Oshkosh and he's a wrestling fan. They're not gonna get
behind Tyree's Halliburton. They're just not like like, I don't
think the old Pacers fans like Palaburton, so who cares.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
I Here's what I would say about of these teams.
It is no matter what sport, it's a little unfortunate
when a team gets the championship game like a year early.
May a couple like, yeah, it's it's always hard when
it happens, like there's no one on these teams that
we've been like totally Shane Gilchris might win m VP.

(12:22):
I think he already did. Oh boom, I'm right there,
you go, yeah, there you go correct on the prediction.
And he's still like, I think we're like I just
saw like three sports talk things today that we're like,
is SGA about to become a star? Well, what are
we doing? He's already MVP. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:42):
If he's not, I mean, we need somebody to be
a star in this fucking series. Might as well be him.
I guess it's not gonna don't make it be Chet
home Gren. Don't ask him, you'll say yes, yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
Can we stop talking about the finals like it's not
happening actively, like Silver's on there, like it might be good.
He came on after game one and said that maybe
it'll be a good time. They've already played the game.

Speaker 4 (13:04):
He didn't know, he didn't tune in watching it.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
I h I think it's fun in principle, Like I
don't agree that it's market based, and I do I'm
weirdly vibed out by It's one of those things. This
is going to be a stretch, but I'm gonna pull
it back in. We do this thing for training for
my job where we asked folks, like one of our

(13:29):
trainings basically like connecting with different types of people or whatever.
And the speaker we had last year was like, all right,
raise your hand if you would say you're athletic or
you're an athlete. You know, so I have to watch
all the Jim bros in the room be like me,
you know, cool, yeah, all these things. If you're an
academic whatever they asked, raise your hand. If you would

(13:50):
say you come from an affluent or rich or you know,
well taken care of family. However they were did it
money wise? Okay, no one raised their hand. One, I
believe one asshole raised their hand and everyone knew he
was going to because he always wears a three PCE suit.
But my point is, Pinky, no one thinks they're rich.

(14:13):
I was like, and I'll be a hypocrite at this
because I was in the room going no because I
was poor. It's like no, no, no, because I'm for
sure one of the poor ones. We can't all be poor.
And I think the same thing happens with markets wherever,
Like the Knicks are not an underdog, right, Like New

(14:34):
York Knicks are like we're America's scrappy team. No, you're
not your New York's basketball team. Yeah, I will say.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
And you were kind of touching on this before you
said everyone's a small market. I think it's the reverse.
But but it's I mean, if we're all this, then
we're all this. It doesn't truly matter. I think the
NBA should recognize this more than anybody there. The NBA
doesn't have local markets.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
No, think that's the the whole thing. Everyone's a national market.

Speaker 4 (15:02):
Everyone's just you might be in fucking h Rhode Island
and be a fan of the Thunder because you like
Shay Gilgis Alexander, Like, that's it.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
You're so right, Zach. And you know what would have
been a great metaphor for Adam Silver to use the
last time anyone cared about the Thunder. Do you think
anyone in Oklahoma cared about their Big Three? No, they
were like one of the most popular teams. People still
debate how good that team was they were together for
like two years.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
They're great. Though the show they should have won.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
They should have won, ran into a bus saw they.

Speaker 4 (15:37):
Did, they did. But I mean, yeah, truly, how many
everybody was cheering for the Thunder unless you were a
Lebron fan. Yeah, and unless you're I feel like if
you were in Oklahoma City, you didn't even know their plan.
They the Thunder have more fans in Seattle than they
do in Oklahoma.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
That's sad. That's so sad. It's also it's crazy Seattle
doesn't have a team. I haven't gotten over it yet.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
I'll remember someone's got to. By the way, a little
flashback two weeks ago. I've got a lot of comments
on your whole Pat tilbod be in the coach thing.
They've a lot of people thought I was one of
the all times screw ups in terms of days you
were going for Charles Tilman pulled a Pat tilban He's great.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
Did people? Yeah. Interesting, I've had a real stretch because
I've been getting because if we talked about Disney movies
last week, a lot more people in my life that
I know who like maybe non sports talk, We're like, oh,
I'll give it a listen or like Emily circle, I
got a kid, I shit, you not more than ten
texts of people I forgot. I said this people being like,

(16:48):
why did you randomly dunk on Holes? Like Holes is
a great movie? You didn't like it? No, I guess
I don't feel like I really dislike it. But I
went back and listened to it, and I do bury it,
and very very I go out of my way to
bury it. Or I'm talking about Fox and the Hound,
and I say Fox and the Hound, like Holes is

(17:11):
one of those movies that just exists to make me
sad and do nothing else, and Emily goes Holes, and
I say, no, no one can act and nothing good
happens until the last thirty seconds, which that's a quote,
and I can't change it. It's a little harsh. I
just it's one of those movies that I think my

(17:31):
real reaction to it is I watched Holes and I went, oh,
that was okay, and I totally missed the bus. Like
that is not the common takeaway from Holes.

Speaker 4 (17:41):
Well, the thing is with Holes is that was one
of the books like almost everyone was forced to read
in middle school because it's the easiest read of all
time and then everyone likes the story, so it's like, Okay,
I'll watch the movie. That's why everyone has a connection,
because it's like I spent way too long in fourth
grade or something reading this book and pretending to actually

(18:02):
be reading.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
And I don't think it's a bad movie. I just
have a thing with movies.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
I need.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
It's a bit of a book stand up business. You hate,
you hate, You can't.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
Make me watch it.

Speaker 3 (18:13):
That means I hate it. That means I hate it.
It's this is real. That movie is sad to start,
then it gets racist, then it says it calls out racism,
the movie itself as it racist. But then I begin
to watch a movie where they lynch a man. Then
they come back and there's toxic lizards, and then one
of the few happy points in the movie is when

(18:34):
they're eating onions.

Speaker 4 (18:37):
Hey, it gives you a little insight on what it's
like to live in the desert.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
And Okay, I do have a sales pitch that I
know is going to connect with you. Specifically, you can't
be a fan of water Boy and then not think
they totally underutilized Henry Winkler.

Speaker 4 (18:53):
Oh, I mean, of course, every time.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
I watch that movie, I go, he needs to be
in much more of this.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
In everything he's ever done, he should be the biggest
star of all time, and for some reason he fell
off after being the Fonds, Like, that's incredible. How's that
even possible?

Speaker 3 (19:09):
He's good at everything. But yeah, so between between that
and bad tilman, I've taken the teeth the last couple
of weeks.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
Okay, I need to watch you guys as Disney I
think the way and we had a great time.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
I think you're gonna be shocked at her thoughts, specifically
on the Rescuers and the Little Mermaid.

Speaker 4 (19:32):
I've never seen rescuers Little Mermaid flows.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
Oh you're gonna be in lockstep with her. Then I
was shocked. She's like, that's a bad movie and I
won't let it rate you higher than d.

Speaker 4 (19:43):
Yeah, terrible, terrible. Where'd you guys put hercules? Because that's
the that's.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
The I had to fight for it to be in
A and she was like B to A and I
was like s RA and so we landed on A.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
And Michael at the end, No, Michael, if Michael Bolten's
singing any soundtrack bumped that bitch up, because.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
Home on the Range I gotta say I've seen once
andnight I thought it was pretty good. I liked it.
Em came in and was like, we all agree, Home
on the Range is one of Disney's best really, And
I was like Dee, and she's like, yeah, I think
everyone thinks it's underrated. She did a great impression of
on the characters. I went. I was like, yeah, you

(20:32):
know what, I do like it will rank it in
the st here I Zach, I kid you, no one
has a nice sickness say about that movie. She was
so convincing in how much people love Home on the Range.
It's it's popcorn meter on Ron Tomatoes is like thirty four.
Everyone's just she was.

Speaker 4 (20:50):
Just a farm kid that felt connected, she felt seen,
she felt like she was represented at a movie. And
then she got it.

Speaker 3 (20:57):
A very farm centered movie where they and I think
it just connected to us in the way it won't
tell others. But hercules is up there and I think,
like I think our top ones if you rewatch it,
like in no particular order. I think some of the
picksar heavy hitters are very high up up Ratituey.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
What would be a challenging one to do would be
ranking all of Disney's sequels and see like how terrible
some of those are.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
So em and I talked about doing that because we
had the DVD collection so we've seen most of them,
but we basically said that, like our opinions were too
like consistent. We were like, well, there's three good ones
here and the rest are fine, too bad. So that
happened a lot. The one I'll talk about with you.

(21:46):
I was gonna bring this up today because they didn't
have it on the list. As people point out afterwards,
Google movie was nowhere on the list really, which I
don't know if it's heartbreaking, just missed that. I was like,
I've been telling people who brought it up to me,
well that's an ass. Sorry we missed it, but it's
Claire and I watched it two weeks ago. It's it's

(22:08):
really good, the first one. We also watched the second one,
which I'm not gonna lie didn't hold up.

Speaker 4 (22:15):
But that's the extremely goofy movie.

Speaker 3 (22:17):
The extremely goofy movie where pH means the French woman.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
Right, he has the easy cheese doing like the whole thing. Yeah, yeah,
I didn't hold up.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
Excuse me, those scenes held up and goofy flirting with
the librarian, held.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
Up ah banger. Yeah, of course he's got He's got
Goofy riz for sure.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
But it's it's I would if we were ranking that one,
I'd put it in B. If we were ranking the
Goofy movie, I'd put in an ass with the Oh my god,
Bigfoot forgot Bigfoot was in that movie The Possum Place. Yeah,
this is what I'll say about that movie.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
The chat for a very related comic.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
By the way, Yeah, Claire got mad at me because
I was like, Max is a scumbag at the start
of the movie, because I was like, why is he
Why is he so mean to his dad?

Speaker 4 (23:07):
Hey, that's that's that's that teenage angst, like we all
get it in the movie.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
Are you having a bomb?

Speaker 4 (23:11):
Pop? Right now? That's the only way I could unless
I said something was bomb Maybe I don't know.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
Okay, let's do this right now. We're not talking about
anything else more important.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
Can you give me rankings of like popsicles or like
ice cream treats?

Speaker 4 (23:26):
Ice cream? I mean, popsicles is harder, but Sunday cones,
like those little those are like you I mean maybe
top five maybe? Okay, sure, sure, maybe that's just my
affinity for a Shoresy, but I love me, I love
me a drumstick, you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (23:45):
There's They're incredible. This sounds great, Luke. It's psychotic that
you have this opinion.

Speaker 4 (23:51):
Watermelon is that? Is that a popsicle?

Speaker 3 (23:54):
It must it must be a type of popsicle bomb
pop I'm guessing. He followed up with this though, for
those you know follow us on three.

Speaker 4 (24:03):
Boxes, Yeah, yeah, watch on YouTube. In terms of just popstickles,
I gotta say fudge stickle, not a fudge stickle, guy. No,
bomb hoops are good, but like.

Speaker 3 (24:16):
What is Sunday cones?

Speaker 4 (24:19):
Sunday cones or drumsticks? You know, like chocolate in the bottom.
That's just so fuck.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
When we did hiring from my position, h Tavid who
you know now, Uh and I are both big Shoresy fans,
and he was rewatching it and we were like sticks
for the boys, So we brought sticks to hiring.

Speaker 4 (24:35):
That's incredible. That's a great mouth. Like the push ups
suck yeah. Ice cream sandwiches just oh g those are
they always hit? Yeah, They're always incredible. Luke wants to
do we remember rip your and banana flavor? I remember
rip your flavored popsickles.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
I remember banana, I remember.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
Rip your solid ripier. By the way, for the people
in the Midwest underrated mixing for like a shaker concrete
mixer at Culvers, throw rip beer in as one of
your things.

Speaker 3 (25:06):
I didn't know you could do that.

Speaker 4 (25:08):
Yeah, Oh, Jake's going to Calfers after this.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
I am going to Culvers after this. I do need
to change up and people can make fun of me
if they. I just realized this is not gonna be
a popular opinion. My go to mixers are. I get
chocolate custard, which, by the way, I do judge a
little sometimes if you go vanilla, but with rip beer,
i'd go vanilla. I do chocolate custard, brownie mix cherries.

Speaker 4 (25:36):
I'm not a huge chocolate cherry guy, but I get it. Like,
if that's your thing, I'm sure that hits well.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
It does, except lately they've been doing this to me.
I was stunned when they asked me the last time
I went with Claire. They I've been ordering this like years.
The last time I went, they hit me with whole
cherries or wild cherries, and I was I didn't know
this was an option, and I asked. I was like,
can you tell me what the difference is? And they

(26:04):
God is my witness that they said, well, the whole
ones are the whole cherry and the wild ones are. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:10):
I got thank you, and I was like okay.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
I said hoole cherries because I was like, okay, they're bigger.
Then they asked me how.

Speaker 4 (26:19):
Many how do you got scavenge up today?

Speaker 3 (26:27):
I said six.

Speaker 4 (26:29):
I was like six number. They asked me that they
put too in. Okay, why you asked me? That's so?
So we already gave up four.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Okay, done that to me before. So I need a
new mix, and so I'm in on that. Luke to
the question, malt cups underrated?

Speaker 4 (26:50):
My cups are underrated. Those are good.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
I had a dailly bar this weekend.

Speaker 4 (26:55):
Dilli bars are good. What's your coach's the flavor? Cherry
dilly bars are good. Those just came back.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
I think, yes, yes, cherry dilly bars are good. I
don't know if I've had too many outside of cherry
or chocolate.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
Butterscotch are good. Oh, butterscotch are good.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
I have had that. I don't think bomb skill is
even my favorite popsicle. I like a bomb pop but dreamsicle,
oh geem for me, that's fair. I I do agree
with you on the classic uh, ice cream sandwich is good.

Speaker 4 (27:30):
Yeah, Outshine popsicles are really good.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
Yeah. I don't mess with klondikes, Okay, I mean, don't
isolate part of that word. I whoa, I'm so sorry,
especially not doing.

Speaker 4 (27:51):
Heartbroke in the day. Choco tacos one away. Those are
always incredible to your point, and if you need isolate
me as well. I guess those Klondike bars uh, but
when we were in school, maybe maybe you had them too,
the ones that like the caramel and all that shit
in there, fucking incredible.

Speaker 3 (28:11):
Those good better If you had to pick one niche taco,
Chaco Taco or Dorito's Locos.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
Ooh, I think I gotta go Chocko Taco.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
Cool ranch to Rito's logos. Tacos always hit the spot
for me.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
Those are good. Those are good. I'm not a hard
taco guy though, like I don't. I appreciate the gimmick,
but like I'd prefer a walking taco. Put put that
into Dorito's bay. I'd like that more than I don't
want to like fall apart and my fingers all dusty.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:45):
Yeah, I don't need I don't need a task after
I'm done eating. I don't want to wash my hands
when I'm done.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
That that is real. That limits me. By the way,
on I got roasted by staff a few years ago
because I I say that while I liked Cheetos, they
wouldn't be like a go to stack for me. And
it's just the mess. I agree.

Speaker 4 (29:06):
I agree, Like if I could have to be home,
it should come with gloves. It should come with gloves.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
You know.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
I don't the whole finger thing with the dust.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
That's not cute.

Speaker 4 (29:17):
Yeah, and I hopefully I don't not wearing white because
I'm my hands off somewhere.

Speaker 3 (29:23):
Thank you for saying the bold part out loud. Luke,
not corn tortillas gotta be flour. I think I disagree.
As long as it's soft, I'm with it. I like
corn tortillas. I agree with Luke.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
Hey suck, I get it. But you know, there's a
lot of shit happening right now in terms of ice stuff.
I like the authentic Mexican tacos that's corn tortias.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
You know we stand in support. I couldn't by the
way fully fully supported that. Speaking of food, it's especially
it's sporting events. You mentioned walking tacos, Zach, I gotta
give you laid down the people will be interested in this.
We're doing a work retreat this week and we're going
to the Brewers game. Okay, through different pieces and stuff

(30:08):
that I will get into because this part of the
story is boring. We were able to get a box,
which should be fun. So our office is going for
a box that should be really cool. They do not
mess around with boxes. I've only been to one before
and I was like a guest of somebody, so I
didn't know the full layout. They ask you like, what

(30:29):
do you want for food? We could have gone taco route,
we could have gone pizza route. We were like, give
us the ballpark food.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
So we're bringing about twenty people and for twenty folks,
each of us can have up to three hot dogs
or brats and up to two burgers as well as well. Wow,

(30:57):
and as well cheese kurts perfect and nachos and chicken strips.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
Okay, I mean you gotta I'm gonna need you to
document it. Get the whole and up.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
To six and a half beers a person.

Speaker 4 (31:20):
Question. Yeah, yeah, yeah, So we're at six. Let's just say,
for example, six are done.

Speaker 3 (31:29):
We divided the exact number by the amount of people
we had.

Speaker 4 (31:32):
Oh gotcha, got you, got you. I was gonna say,
like I could only have a half more like what they.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Give you a set number, and then so much with
our group. So this box is built for a lot
of people.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
I mean, it's built for one speed and let's go.
It was what sounds like.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
Yeah, well, and I fear my talking up of Hams
has finally made it up to me because Hams is
gonna be one of the beers they're providing, which is great,
but they did that and then everyone has been going
they got to pick what beers we have. So they're like, well,
Jake like Hams. That's part of his personality, so let's
get Hams. No one's helping me with it. So I'm

(32:10):
beers Hams.

Speaker 4 (32:12):
That's too much, you know, And you're going if you're
just you know, you're building your beer lineup. A third
Hams is too much Hams.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
I was even like with six and a half beers,
I was like two Hams and four of the beers.
Feels a little out of skew.

Speaker 4 (32:31):
I mean, right, you neat. I feel like, you know,
tell me if I'm wrong, because you're the Hams guy.
You're the spokesperson. Hams is listening. Oh, send them over
right now, there you go. I feel like Hams is
a good getting warmed up, you know what I mean? Like,
you know, I don't want to have a beer right away,

(32:52):
all the Hams, you know, you know, I want to
hydrate a little bit. Maybe it's like drinking a hot water,
you know those things. It's pretty much the equivalent of
a hot water.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
I will do it this way. This was my college
go to and I think I'm gonna bring it back
for this, which is dangerous. I feel like I need
to stretch, like I should pre game tomorrow, just to
get back in the mindset. I will do the old classic,
which is I will start with like a spotted cow,
because that's one of the options. So I'll start with
the spotted cow, enjoy sit and then crush five Hams

(33:25):
like spotted cow's quality. And then Hams is quantity sure,
because I can't afford six spotted cows like in one night.
That's it. You can't be doing that. But Hams the
money part's not what's gonna get you, So go for it.

Speaker 4 (33:40):
You know, drinking six spotted cows will way you down
to if you drink six hands, you're skipping out of there.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
You're doing good, Luke. I hate how accurate this is.
Hams is the beer you use the shotgun when it's warmed.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
Maybe it has no flavor. I don't know. I don't
get it. I'm not gonna do that.

Speaker 3 (33:58):
I Hams is my cheap I just need a bunch
of beer. Hams and PBR to me are interchangeable. I
don't know if I'll.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
Tell me this, tell me this. I need you to
answer honestly. Okay, So you're drinking Hams at home or anyway?
Really have you ever? Please answer honestly. You pour hams
into a glass?

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Right you never?

Speaker 4 (34:19):
Oh? Okay?

Speaker 3 (34:20):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (34:20):
I was wondering if you ever put ice cubes in
your hands? No, if it feels like that would be
the route you would go, No, too much respect.

Speaker 3 (34:28):
I don't put ice cubes in anything. So maybe that's
a cop out to your question.

Speaker 4 (34:32):
Okay, that's fair, that's fair.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
Non nice guy, Okay.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Luke, random question to you, since you're the third person
in this conversation, Luke, do.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
You drink cold water? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (34:44):
By the way, it Luke's in the chat, Jake. Do
you like cold water or room temperature water?

Speaker 3 (34:49):
I'd like cold, but I won't put ice in.

Speaker 4 (34:51):
It, Okay, Luke likes room temperature water. Do you like
room temperature beer, Luke? Or are you going only beer question?
Because I've had like in Europe. Obviously the temperature of the
beer is warmer, and it wasn't bad. I'd still prefer
a cold beer, though, but I can see some people

(35:11):
preferring it being warm, maybe not warm room temperature.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
I certainly don't mind a room temperature beer.

Speaker 4 (35:19):
I'm not gonna turn down a beer. The only room
temperature beer I'm upset by is if it started cold.
If it started room temperature, I'd be okay.

Speaker 3 (35:28):
Yeah, I was gonna say, I've like crushed a room
temperature beer before. Like we're gonna chug something. It's like, yeah,
grab it out of the box. It's in the corner
over there.

Speaker 4 (35:38):
Yet no time to We'll put the rest of the
box in the fridge. Well, while that gets cold up,
a few of these warm ones. Yeah, that's fine.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
That's interesting, Okay, Luke as you're answering about your preference
in temperature drinks, you can answer this Tuosac. But like
Luke's thing, if he likes room temperature things. Please tell
me that you don't drink iced coffee, right, you're a regular,
you're a heated coffee.

Speaker 4 (36:02):
I sting to know if Luke's a coffee guy at all.
And Luke, if you would like a link to the call,
if you would like to call in, let me know
that as well.

Speaker 3 (36:08):
Yeah, that's true. We are getting a lot of questions.
Do you back and forth sec on coffee like today?

Speaker 4 (36:17):
If I have respect for the coffee, it's hot, because
I'm not gonna dilute it, I'll say that. But if
I am out and about or if it's just cheap,
gross coffee, then I wanted ice mute the flavor to.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
Tie back into sports a little bit. That made me
think of this weekend. We were up in Green Bay
visiting grandparents and we went to seven Brew Coffee there,
which is a chain in Wisconsin. But we went there.
The like high schooler who was taking our order we
were small talking with. We told her we were going
to the Nobels Supper Club, which is a famous supper
club in the Green Bay area. So Claire, this is

(36:53):
gonna Claire's ball knowledge of this conversation, I was like,
that's why she's the one baby, because they were like,
where's novels? And she's like, oh, it's it's in Hollandtown.
It's by Appleton Packer. People go all the time. She
hits her with do you know who Bart's Starr is?
This girl goes, no, I don't know who Bart Starr.
And Claire's follow up is, okay, do you know who

(37:15):
Don Hudson is? And I was like, what's next? Where
are we going? Jerry crag Forrest Grace. She said no
to Bart Starred, We're going backwards.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
She got she has no raynitskis. Oh did she ask
her that one?

Speaker 3 (37:27):
No? No, But the girl goes, I know who Eard
Rogers is? And Claire goes, oh, we don't like him anymore.
And I was like, boop, this girl, we are not
extending an olive bridge.

Speaker 4 (37:38):
Uh, that that is fair. And Luke is going to
join the call, by the way, so he has thoughts
it sounds like, and then maybe while he's on as well,
I can tell you about a little bit more about
the road trip I went on around Wisconsin, I said,
I searched for Dublin, Wisconsin. And dare I say, I
phone answers.

Speaker 3 (37:57):
Wow, And that's kid to break down with Luke.

Speaker 4 (38:00):
Yes, Luke knows a little bit about it. Luke's fully
bought in to the Dublin conspiracy. And by the way,
I will say this as a teaser. I started thinking,
can't be real. Cannot be real. Why is there merch
for a supposed military town that does not make sense
to me? But now I am thinking, Oh, something's happened.

(38:24):
I don't know if Duvlin's real, but I know the
government's doing something. Okay, there's some sneakiness going on. There's
an agenda of sorts. Little spoiler alert went to Agenda
Wisconsin Shake, which supposedly, according to one Reddit comment on
the thread, is the new name for Dublin, Wisconsin. I

(38:46):
typed an agenda Wisconsin. I'll take I'll show you where
we went. I'll show you where we went. But Luke
is here. So Luke, welcome to the show. Big conversation
happening right now. So can we hear can you hear us?

Speaker 3 (39:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (39:04):
Can you hear me?

Speaker 3 (39:05):
I can?

Speaker 1 (39:06):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (39:06):
You're delayed, but we got you. Maybe maybe refresh it
because we need we need you up to date. Split
second stuff going on.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
Luke only joins the show from six seconds in the past,
whether he's at the draft.

Speaker 4 (39:20):
That is true, That is true. That seems better, a
little bit better. Okay, So did you read or hear
I guess we didn't type. Did you hear our questions
to the coffee debate and beer debates?

Speaker 1 (39:34):
I don't drink coffee.

Speaker 4 (39:36):
Okay, that's kind of where I was thinking.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
I hate coffee.

Speaker 4 (39:39):
Oh, Jake, the same way.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
I think, same way.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
My first job was in a dunkin Donuts when I
was fourteen years old, and all the smell of coffee
he like, disgusts me.

Speaker 4 (39:48):
Really, I feel like the smells the best part.

Speaker 1 (39:50):
Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
I may I may have had like total of coffee
that I'm drinking my life, maybe less than one half
of a cup.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Love. I love that ship. But you're speaking right to
Jake's heart. So now with the beer though, because you
are a room temperature water guy.

Speaker 1 (40:07):
I love beer.

Speaker 3 (40:10):
I'd be too.

Speaker 4 (40:13):
You don't love hams. It sounds like you just pound hands.
You don't have no respect for hams.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
No, I don't respect for hams.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
No, it does good.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
When I when I was when I was in college,
I had a job building pools over the summer and
we had some You had a hillbilly working for us
and from Florida, and he said he moved up to
herek forresconsin for the beer and asked him a beer drink.

Speaker 1 (40:34):
He said, hams.

Speaker 3 (40:37):
Not a good sign. Tough. That is tough. As much
as I like it, I wouldn't be like, what's the
beer of our people?

Speaker 1 (40:44):
Right?

Speaker 4 (40:44):
No?

Speaker 1 (40:45):
No, no, no.

Speaker 2 (40:46):
So, so to answer to answer your question, ice cold
beer always like sitting around a fire, you're sitting at
at a bar bullshit and whatever. But if you're like
if you're if you're all partying playing, like you need
to get down a lot quick. Yeah, warm, warm beer
as much easier than cold beer.

Speaker 4 (40:59):
So so is there any other drink you prefer it
to be room temperature than water?

Speaker 2 (41:10):
No, Like I don't hate like like warm, like milk
is I don't drink milk, but you know, milk is fine.

Speaker 1 (41:16):
Milk.

Speaker 4 (41:17):
That's what he went to.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
But like the only time I drink milk like in cereal.

Speaker 4 (41:21):
Sure, but yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
I mean milk. Milk can of disgust me anyway, So
that's probably a bad example.

Speaker 3 (41:30):
Yeah, it's like just as bad room temperature cold as Yeah,
I guess soda. I'll take a soda at any temperature.

Speaker 1 (41:40):
You know, I don't disagree. I like ice cold soda.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
But like I don't know, if you were like fall
asleep on like a Sunday watching golf or something, you
wake up you need to drink something. You have like
half a flat doctor Pepper next to you, Like, that's
not a bad drink.

Speaker 4 (41:52):
No, No, we should do a ranking at some point
the best flat sodas, because Doctor Pepper's up there.

Speaker 3 (41:56):
I think our grandmother Luke would put to leaders have
soda in the fridge purposely a little cracked to let
them flat on a little bit flat soda.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
Yeah, you know, regular a little too much bite.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
You know. You know, you know what does suck at
room tempter? Those vodka?

Speaker 4 (42:15):
Yeah, at least at least most vodka I have consumed
in my life. Yes, there's some vodka where it tastes
like water, but.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
You ever had those?

Speaker 3 (42:23):
It does not.

Speaker 1 (42:24):
You ever had the Spicy Deal Pickle vodka.

Speaker 4 (42:29):
From which one.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
I don't know, but at a bar gave a spicy
deal Pickle shot Is vodka is incredible.

Speaker 4 (42:35):
I mean, there's a distillery near Jake and I and
ship will falls. So if you go there to go
to Lindy's and stuff, there's a true Mee's Deal vodka,
very good and Bloody Mary's Okay.

Speaker 1 (42:46):
Not a Bloody Mary fan, but I like.

Speaker 4 (42:47):
The Okay vodka. I guess that's actually what they do have.
That's a drink there. It's half lemonade, half deal pickle vodka.
Actually that's awesome.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
M hm.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
Do you see Popeyes tried to start the.

Speaker 4 (43:04):
Horrible It sounds like it would be bad, but maybe
it's good.

Speaker 3 (43:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (43:10):
That's like their whole thing right now is still pick
us ship. I went to wingstop for the first time
on our road trip by the so fucking good.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
It was incredible.

Speaker 1 (43:20):
What flavor did you get?

Speaker 4 (43:22):
Uh got lemon, pepper, hot honey. We got four. The
thing was funny barbecue and then one of the spicy ones.

Speaker 1 (43:34):
The best is the mango hob and arrow.

Speaker 4 (43:36):
That's what we got. We got that that was solid,
very solid. Have you been to wingstop, Jake?

Speaker 3 (43:43):
No, I lived around one in Kansas for two years
and I just avoided. I didn't think it was that good.
I was obsessed with pains.

Speaker 4 (43:49):
Yeah, true, Kansas solid. I think there's a wingstop coming,
o Claire.

Speaker 3 (43:53):
It was.

Speaker 4 (43:55):
It was incredible. I blew my mind.

Speaker 2 (43:59):
When we I I was in a bachelor party. We
went to Nashville last summer and there was a Cane's
like one tenth of a mile away from our airbnb,
and we sat there every night at like four am,
getting cans.

Speaker 1 (44:11):
It was incredible.

Speaker 4 (44:12):
It's too good. It's not fair how good it is, right,
it shouldn't be that toast as well as yeah it's insane.

Speaker 3 (44:20):
I do have a good cane story. I had a
friend at grad school who went to Canes High and they, uh,
you know, they always have a different catch phrases to
drive through. So I think I wasn't there with it,
but I.

Speaker 4 (44:31):
Think, oh, I hate that. That's if that threw me
off the first two times I went there. Yeah, I froze.

Speaker 3 (44:37):
Yeah, I think they hit him with the hicken chicken.
What you picking like in you know or whatever you say?
Uh he calls me, he goes, Jake. I don't know
what they said, I just drove away. He pulled up,
They hit him within and he left. He was like,
I can't I can't compute. I can't hang with that.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
That was my Yeah, my first experience. They said, chicken, chicken, chicken,
What cowbar are you picking? I turned to Lindsey, pissed off.
What do I do now? Yeah, I'm gonna sucker punch
a fucker when I get up to the hotel, Like,
what is he saying to me?

Speaker 3 (45:10):
I hated it. They couldn't hang.

Speaker 4 (45:13):
Then the second time, I was prepaired. I'm like, gonna
stay in the pocket. I know what they're gonna say.
And then they came with a different catchphrase, like a frazzled.
I don't even remember it because I blacked out.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
They did.

Speaker 4 (45:26):
They did. I'm like, oh, they showing off the right side.
He dropped in the coverage.

Speaker 3 (45:33):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (45:33):
But also, Luke, I'm happier here because on the trip,
on the road trip that went to Wingstop, I said
I was gonna find Devlin, Wisconsin. And uh so after
Door County we went up. We're gonna go up to Ashland, Jake,
where all the magic has As you know, Ashland is
a place on say, a great place. It is a

(45:54):
place had to stop my Butternut. You know, we gotta
see the Midgets. That's the name of their mascot. Nobody
getting mad. So we had to go to butter Gut.

Speaker 3 (46:04):
If you're gonna get mad at anyone their school mascot,
it's there.

Speaker 4 (46:07):
It's named nicknamed after a world class wrestler who went
by the nickname Midget. So if you have a problem
with that, respect our country a little bit, I think
you want to at all. So there, and then I said,
before we go to this was an audible I pulled
by the way and you'll turn up. Not all audibles
are good. Sometimes you call an audible and you get sacked. Right,

(46:30):
So we went to Button and I said, hey, we're
like an hour away from Ashland. I'm actually gonna go
see if I can find Agenda Wisconsin. Because that one
redditor said, uh, Dublin was Agenda Wisconsin. So let me
bring up a map here. So I typed in Agenda
Wisconsin and then we went to that spot. So looking

(46:54):
at this here, so this is Agenda Wisconsin. I'll say
directions just so you can see specifically. So we were
in Butternut and they called for agenda Wisconsin. As you
can see here, this is in the middle of a
fucking forest.

Speaker 3 (47:11):
Yeah crazy, I didn't know that.

Speaker 4 (47:14):
So we were on a road trip and my jeep
was having some transmission issues, so we did not take it.
We took Lindsay's I believe it's a Chevy Cruise.

Speaker 1 (47:26):
Oh hell yeah.

Speaker 4 (47:27):
Well small, small, little car. So that's great, great gas knowledge.
We're hauling ass, right, so I type in butternut like, okay, great,
so we can get there. We're headed to Ashland, which
is up here. We're going a little bit out of
the way, so we take this road over here, and
then all of a sudden we get to this road

(47:48):
right here and it turns to gravel. Yeah, an agenda
is supposedly three miles into the forest on a gravel road,
definitely not made for cars. But you know, I said, hey,
we're just gonna take it. We're gonna see what agenda
wet and row butternut like, let's see what the government's

(48:12):
agenda is with this place. We got about here and
sun setting, it's starting to get dark, and I gave
Lizzy it out because we're hidding potholes. It's a skinny
little path, no sign of life. At this point, I said, hey,
we can just turn around. She said, no, might as
well just go It's only like two miles away. So
we get here. Yep, we're in the Ashland County forest

(48:35):
at this point. There's absolutely nothing around. However, can I
turn it to.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
There's no way there's a street mode here?

Speaker 3 (48:46):
No, no, no, there's no just like Wisconsin's rowanok uh. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (48:51):
So just to show you this, this is where we're
driving through. This is absolutely nothing. Go to the Floury
Sports YouTube channel if you were not, if you were
just listening to this. This supposedly Agenda Wisconsin's a real thing.
By the way, they have a website. It's a real place.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
They have a wiki page.

Speaker 4 (49:09):
They have a wiki page. Where's Agenda Wisconsin. It says
it's right here. But see certain things that we kept seeing.
This is suspicious here, is it not?

Speaker 1 (49:19):
Yeah, that's what I was going to bring up.

Speaker 2 (49:21):
I mean, that's obviously the berry Town Hall from like
eighteen forty one that I'm guessing this kind of got
used as maybe like a Civil War base for some reason,
and that kind of evolved into Dublin where we saw
all these mind maybe that's opening to a mind shaft.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (49:38):
I will like possibly, but I will say, Agenda, Wisconsin
is new.

Speaker 3 (49:43):
This is a new thing.

Speaker 1 (49:44):
I mean, it's got a twenty twenty census.

Speaker 4 (49:48):
Like it got its name like not that long ago.
I'm not sure if it says it here, but on
their website or whatever. I think I've got their name
like within the past fifteen years. That's why everyone's saying,
like I say, everyone literally one Reddit comment uh said
Agenda was Dublin because Dublin supposedly disappeared in the nineties,
I believe is what they said. Eighties or nineties. So

(50:09):
that was weird. So we're driving here, there's so many
weird little like spots like this that you can see
from the road. There was a spot there was a
clearing as if you know, there was trees grown maybe
for the past fifteen twenty years or something very suspicious
amount of time. But these large ass boulders arranged in
like a fence to separate us from that in that clearing.

(50:33):
So it's like, what is that? What is going on there?
And Jake, by the time we got to like this
part right here that you can see we are nowhere
near dud with this fucking forest, and my Olk Island
sends his kick in.

Speaker 3 (50:47):
I was just thinking that you had to be listening
to your mood because something you're on an episode of Okay,
but do you w have way through a crop circle?

Speaker 4 (50:53):
I was Lindsay's freaking the fuck out. We're talking this
until you're strutchery here by the way. Uh. She's like, oh,
we're gonna get murdered, We're gonna die and stuff like that.
And I was talking it up like yeah, we're probably
gonna die. Like every end. The car was breaking down.
I pulled over. You know, she's freaking out. I was
having a great time. But we got here and then
all of a sudden, like oh you're here, and we

(51:15):
kept driving. All of a sudden, I get a little impatient.
I'm like, okay, it said. We got like ten miles
until we turned to the right. So we're driving, We're driving,
We're driving. I believe it was this little thing here.
We drove to one of these here this we were
in the woods. Yeah, it switched from Ashland County Forest

(51:38):
to Iron County Forest. It was just gravel road the
entire time. Skinny one UTV drove by us, so that
was the only sign of life we had. The only
signs that we ever drove by had bullets all of them.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
How many people were on the u TV.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
Two?

Speaker 1 (51:57):
Okay, it's better than one.

Speaker 4 (51:59):
It is way better than one. Like you're we're not
even driving by like cabins right driving by anything we were.
There's no cell service. Obviously we are in a Chevy Cruise, Like.

Speaker 3 (52:13):
The cruise in the forest is such a visual.

Speaker 4 (52:17):
It was the bout a dust on this thing. We
went off roading. There's still dust in the gas cap apparently,
Like I put this thing to through the ringer.

Speaker 3 (52:27):
Little nervous that maybe we.

Speaker 4 (52:28):
Hit some Uh, yeah, there's nothing wrong with the Carlo.
I will say we we we went well. But we
were racing against the sun at this point though, Like
that's what I was nervous about, Like I don't want
to be No, there was no sign of light anywhere.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
That part of the country or that part of the
state is like the Vietnam of Wisconsin, Like you don't
know what the fuck is going on with there?

Speaker 4 (52:51):
Well, Jake, what I the scariest part that I thought,
I thought we're gonna drive like just drive and see
a bout like someone walking at us. I thought it
was gonna be like Paul.

Speaker 3 (53:00):
I know. I was like, you have one hour call
up there, and it might be the scariest call for
help you'd ever make.

Speaker 4 (53:07):
Like there's obviously there's you know, we go from this
huge ass forest to reservation as well, by the way,
so like there's some reservation activity in the woods as well,
like they do hunting and stuff in there. But the
way it's so primitive that that also makes it a
little scary. But like I was cool until we got

(53:27):
literally like thirty miles into the woods, and then I
tightened up a little bit. I'm like, okay, Like, yeah,
we didn't get the we didn't get the fuck out
of here.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
I was at the stadium pulse on seven in college football.

Speaker 4 (53:41):
Yeah, yeah, for the past for the final maybe like
thirty five minutes in the forest. No words were said.

Speaker 3 (53:50):
How long were you on this road? Total?

Speaker 4 (53:54):
Over an hour? Well over an hour? Again, the sun
was setting, the sun was setting. And then when we
finally got out, we finally got to a paved road,
not a good paved road, but we got to a
paved road. This is where I started to get freaked
out the most. It wasn't Iron Wood. We went by
Copper Falls. We kind of came out like up here,

(54:16):
we came out of a sift seventy seven. So I
had all the conspiracy theories in my head right, like
something's happening. There's activities that we saw. And then all
of a sudden we finally get to a paved road
and there were I mean, Jake at least knows I
have a fear of birds.

Speaker 3 (54:32):
There were birds everywhere.

Speaker 4 (54:34):
There were so many crows, big ass crew.

Speaker 3 (54:40):
And I will say, so.

Speaker 4 (54:43):
Drive you drive out a bird by the way and
it flies off the road right correct, they fly away.
These are not real birds. They knew the length of
the road as we like, away from us, like instead
of just driving into the woods, driving or flying off
the woods into the woods, flying off the road.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
They all did this.

Speaker 4 (55:03):
They flew the length of the road as if it's
a camera spying on a scene where we're going.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
So they were flying out of the forest.

Speaker 4 (55:13):
This was after we were on the paved road, as
if it's like, oh, hey, there's a car, there's someone
who's not supposed to be here. And this happened multiple times.
The bird would just fly the length of the road
ahead of us, as if it's a camera watching us throw.

Speaker 3 (55:26):
It was so weird.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Aren't crows like incredibly intelligent?

Speaker 3 (55:31):
Yes, yes, you found the Wisconsin's bird charging station.

Speaker 4 (55:36):
Yeah, honestly, that's what they say. Why they sit on
the telephone whereas so they charge? I don't know. Man,
they did not act like any birds I've ever seen,
So maybe it's because I had I went through Vietnam
for fucking sixty minutes in the wood more than six. Yeah,
it had to have been longer because we're driving. At most.
When I got a little impatient, I floored it and

(55:56):
it was like dodging the potholes and stuff. At the peak,
we got to like thirty eight miles an hour. Like
it was slow, slow the entire way.

Speaker 3 (56:06):
It was if crazy.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
If something broke down, I.

Speaker 4 (56:11):
Don't know, like literally that was the only thing because
like there's no direction to go, like right, no, I
knew the road to get out. I've been in this forest,
not this deep into it before, like I've been like
in the Iron County part, but like there's.

Speaker 1 (56:28):
No houses around to get help or anything.

Speaker 4 (56:31):
No houses, no si, like no one's driving by us,
no service, no cell serve, there's nothing. If it broke down,
I would be there still. There was no chance.

Speaker 3 (56:43):
That's so scary. The crows might have been that creepy
because they don't see people.

Speaker 4 (56:50):
They saw us, bet you that much.

Speaker 1 (56:54):
They saw us the first people that they've ever seen.

Speaker 4 (56:58):
Maybe, I mean to be honest. Yeah, there was no
sign of life any or.

Speaker 3 (57:01):
At least a car. They're like, the only ATVs drive
out here.

Speaker 4 (57:05):
Well, it didn't look like a car at that point either.
It's a blue car that was fully brown. We were dusty,
it was.

Speaker 3 (57:12):
You didn't even see any so no signs of the
towns we were looking for.

Speaker 4 (57:16):
No. No, So it's agenda Wisconsin.

Speaker 3 (57:18):
Why did it take it?

Speaker 4 (57:20):
Why did it take me? There?

Speaker 1 (57:21):
Are we sure that that's the correct agenda Wisconsin?

Speaker 3 (57:24):
Okay? Als, okay, Yeah that's true. Maybe that's the two
missing towns.

Speaker 4 (57:32):
That's the news Agenda's God.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
I mean yeah, if if it's what your research is
close to Ashton, like, that's got to be.

Speaker 1 (57:40):
There's nowhere else it could possibly.

Speaker 4 (57:41):
Be, right, No, No, in a population of two hundred
and something like, where is that it brush.

Speaker 1 (57:49):
To the middle of the for population of zero.

Speaker 4 (57:53):
There was. Yeah, you know what, it was weird.

Speaker 2 (57:56):
What when that that guy the people on the u
TV passed, you should just turn around and started following
them because they were probably lost as hell too.

Speaker 4 (58:04):
Well at that point, it probably would have been a
closer route out because we're probably only fifteen miles in
at that point. But they had to have been freak
the funk out too, or why is somebody here and
why are they at a car? It was not a
car path. It was a UTV path at best.

Speaker 3 (58:19):
Because the town of the town of Agenda appears on
several sites, like they have their own website, they have
their own Wikipedia page. Travel Wisconsin has listed Agenda Wisconsin.

Speaker 4 (58:34):
I don't I yeah, but then if you go to maps,
it takes you into the middle of the woods. And honestly,
look at this, Uh let me bring this back up,
Like everything points to the middle of the woods.

Speaker 3 (58:48):
Yeah, even Explore Wisconsin's does too. I was looking at
that like.

Speaker 4 (58:52):
It says it right there. That makes no sense. So
even like the Wikipedia thing, that's the middle of the woods, right,
population of three hundred and seventy down from four to
twenty two, and I mean.

Speaker 2 (59:05):
That's right on the border we said, like between Ashland
and Iron County, right around there.

Speaker 3 (59:09):
Yeah, is there any chance they just folded in the Butternut?
They just took down the signs.

Speaker 4 (59:16):
No, there's no way because Butternut's been there for way longer.
Butternut's been there for a long time. Like Agenda is
a new thing. They had like a town hall to call,
and the street signs too, by the way, like the
little U address markers said Agenda.

Speaker 1 (59:34):
Oh, interesting, so you're there.

Speaker 4 (59:38):
I was there, but no one else was.

Speaker 1 (59:42):
Something's going on, man.

Speaker 3 (59:43):
The population is four hundred, but the square footage of
Agenda is actually two counties wide. It's just the whole woods.

Speaker 4 (59:51):
Where are four hundred people staying?

Speaker 1 (59:56):
What's up? Like, well, zoom back in a little bit.
What's the pink thing.

Speaker 4 (59:59):
To the left this one?

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:00:02):
Cycle Lake Resort. I did see a sign for this
before we entered the forest.

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
Interesting, we could call it, we.

Speaker 4 (01:00:11):
Should, like, honestly, that's where the next Flory Sports retreats
gonna be. Is gonna be Cycle Lake Resort. And honestly,
all I want to do is go back to that
fucking forest because there's shit to look at. And you
know who just got a brand new u TV.

Speaker 3 (01:00:26):
Jake. Oh, bloody Dan. I was just thinking he was
the one for this job too. He's gonna know someone
from Agenda.

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
Oh for sure, for sure. So uh, but we're gonna
get boots on the ground in that force. Other people
want to come. We need we need everybody possible to
be there, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
Like like when you go to college and like you're
your freshman year and you're like meeting people and they're
trying like, oh, I'm from this town that only has
three hundred people. Has anyone ever said they're from Agenda.
I'm only I'm a town from two hundred people.

Speaker 3 (01:00:56):
I know a lot of orientations. I don't think I've
heard that one, right.

Speaker 4 (01:01:02):
No, Like I don't get it. That's not that much
smaller than Mount Jake, Like that's half the size of
Elk Mountain.

Speaker 3 (01:01:12):
That yeah, Bear Valley like that I've heard folks from.
There's like unincorporated places where it's literally a few houses.

Speaker 4 (01:01:19):
Right, Menduro is technically unincorporated. Agenda, Wisconsin, I think is unincorporated.
But they got four hundred people.

Speaker 3 (01:01:29):
They have a town board. Listen, However, their town board
is all for the people who live in Butternut.

Speaker 4 (01:01:36):
Really yeah, I don't know, man.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
What's the what's the point of having a town board
for a town that has nothing?

Speaker 4 (01:01:45):
I don't know. Ashton County income is thirty seven thousand.
Well from what I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:01:54):
Ashton County, Wisconsin. DOCAV has a site dedicated to the
town of Agenda. Town hall is Agenda Road in Butternut.

Speaker 4 (01:02:06):
Okay, I was on Agenda Road. I remember that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:09):
You know, you know what?

Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
This kind of reminds me of gender town halls.

Speaker 4 (01:02:13):
Right here?

Speaker 3 (01:02:16):
Do we have like a Seymour situation, Zach where it
just doesn't really hit All that's there is the ballpark.

Speaker 4 (01:02:22):
I guess. But why would it typing in Agenda, Wisconsin
take me from this is where the town hall is.
It took me in the middle of the woods here
to like get killed.

Speaker 1 (01:02:30):
Similar Okay, look up town of Almon a l M
O N.

Speaker 3 (01:02:36):
Do you think it's all a names?

Speaker 4 (01:02:39):
Maybe a l M what a l M O N?

Speaker 3 (01:02:45):
Almen almost Wisconsin.

Speaker 1 (01:02:54):
No, this isn't it. No, this isn't it. It's a
different one.

Speaker 4 (01:02:59):
There's multiple Almond, Wisconsin. That's a D.

Speaker 1 (01:03:04):
Yeah, it doesn't have a D in han O'd County.

Speaker 4 (01:03:07):
It doesn't come up. He can bring me to all LND.

Speaker 2 (01:03:11):
I had to go to town board meetings there. I
forget where it is no left.

Speaker 1 (01:03:20):
North. It's like somewhere up.

Speaker 4 (01:03:24):
In here on a reservation.

Speaker 2 (01:03:28):
Anyways, It's similar where that there's like the only building
is a town hall and it's like a barn.

Speaker 4 (01:03:35):
Sure, I mean there's places like that near us, Jake,
I suppose. But but if I typed in, let's just say,
I mean, let's just see what happens if I type
in Albertville.

Speaker 3 (01:03:49):
Yeah, that's an interesting one, because Albertville, Wisconsin, at this
point it's just a tavern.

Speaker 4 (01:03:56):
It brought us to it though, that's correct.

Speaker 3 (01:04:00):
There's even an old Albertville.

Speaker 4 (01:04:02):
Yeah, I mean this is the new Albertville. Well, like
I bet, I bet it would type up Wheaton.

Speaker 3 (01:04:07):
Wheaton literally is just a town hall, and that would
be interesting. Does it take you to the town hall
of Wheaton. It brings up a whole fucking area.

Speaker 4 (01:04:17):
It brings up a region.

Speaker 1 (01:04:18):
I guess, city limits.

Speaker 3 (01:04:22):
I guess.

Speaker 4 (01:04:23):
But again, yeah, Agenda Wisconsin, the whole forest. You know
what this looks like. And this is the dirtiest thing
I've ever said on the fucking podcast. This looks like
Missing Now from Pokemon.

Speaker 3 (01:04:42):
Yes, that's the best thing you've ever said on the podcast.

Speaker 4 (01:04:46):
Yeah, but once you catch it, what happens to fox
your ship up? That's all it does. I went to
Agenda Wisconsin. I felt like I just caught Missing now.

Speaker 5 (01:04:55):
So yeah interesting, Yeah, I mean, let me let me
bring up Missing no no, or the non nerds.

Speaker 1 (01:05:07):
I guess back in the day, man, I know.

Speaker 4 (01:05:14):
Look at that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:15):
Yeah, Oh, that's the exact same thing.

Speaker 1 (01:05:17):
It is? It sure is?

Speaker 3 (01:05:19):
That's there, dude. That's a good pull by you. Oh no,
I bet that photo was crazy, Sash.

Speaker 2 (01:05:28):
Dude, you're gonna be like in a Black Neu episode
where your whole technology is and you all corrupted and
ship now, I.

Speaker 4 (01:05:33):
Know, I mean, have you here if this is the
last episode the Flurry Sports podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:05:37):
You know Missing Now that I know I'm talking to
to I knew about Zach already, but now that I'm
talking to two Pokemon fans. I had my staff present
on like any cultural topic they wanted over the year.
One of them presented on video games, pricing folks out
and basically putting up paywalls. They were like, but it's
been going on a long time. And the first example

(01:05:59):
they brought up was how Pokemon used to do trade evolutions,
and I got too invested. Yeah, they were like, you
buy a whole game and the only way you could
get gang ar was by trading. And I was like, preach, motherfucker,
that's so true.

Speaker 4 (01:06:13):
I was so you friends, Yeah, I know, like, what
the fuck I don't need I don't want to admit
to my friends that I need to here, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
But then they got the Internet and that changed the game.

Speaker 3 (01:06:24):
Yeah. I remember, I was like, how high level does
my champ have to be? Like a level seventy choke
just crushing the game, and I'm like, this motherfucker is
never gonna evolve.

Speaker 4 (01:06:37):
Never will got to make a friend first, which is
the hard And if you.

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
Had won the old game boys, you had to get
one of those tethers. Yeah, they would connect your game
boys to trade them.

Speaker 1 (01:06:48):
And you have to used to put lamps on your
game boys.

Speaker 4 (01:06:51):
Yeah you plug it in, little curly lamp on top.

Speaker 3 (01:06:54):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:06:56):
They had the magnifier glass you can put over top
of so you don't rub your nose on the screen
because you're looking at it too close.

Speaker 3 (01:07:03):
Right. They had all kinds of things. Yet they had
a connection. I think Zachi, you might have had this
where you were able to, like it scanned your Pokemon cards.

Speaker 4 (01:07:15):
Yeah, there's an e reader it was. Yeah, I don't
even remember. There must have been a game with it,
I wonder. Yeah, and you're right, it with specific cards.
It was not as cool as it seemed. It seemed like, oh,
now any card I have, I can scan it. That's
not how it worked at all. No, like it might
just you know, recorded like the Pokemon you have or something.

(01:07:38):
I don't know. There's some weird thing to it. They
cost more money now though they're more valuable. Got a bunch.
I was looking into that the other day.

Speaker 2 (01:07:46):
That's my one regret in life is getting rid of
all my Pokemon shit.

Speaker 3 (01:07:49):
My mom gave way to Goodwill, and I bring that
up every time she makes me upset.

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:07:55):
It's like, you're the reason we're poor. You gave away
my cards and my GameCube.

Speaker 4 (01:08:01):
Game cubes too. People go crazy over game cubes right now.

Speaker 3 (01:08:04):
Yeah. And I was like, and I hope some kid
went to Goodwill and is having the time of his life.
But he probably sold it for four hundred dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:08:12):
Let's go out on this and Jake, this is something
that brought up to you a few weeks ago. I
have a new hobby that I'm very ashamed.

Speaker 3 (01:08:17):
Oh, I can't wait for Luke's Yeah, here we go there.

Speaker 4 (01:08:20):
Well, yeah, Jake doesn't know about it yet. So one
thing I've been doing in it's it's the journey that
I really am addicted.

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
Tell me what the hobby was. You just said, I have.

Speaker 4 (01:08:31):
A new hobby, and it's it's a little embarrassing at
least I had. I had an embarrassing moment with it.
I've been very into like flipping on eBay, like buying
shit and flipping and the best thing, the best way
to do that, Like there's these auction websites at least
on like Wisconsin, like estate auction shit, so you can

(01:08:52):
bid on it. Then you have to go pick it
up and stuff. So I've gotten like Pokemon cards, I've
gone stuff like that. I'll go to thrist sales and
stuff like that too. But the hobby hit a new
low a few weeks ago, right before the trip, and
that's because at in a state sale at the auction,

(01:09:12):
I ended up buying eight cowboy hats. No no, they
were good cowboy hats and I'm going to make money
off of it. Best believe that. But do you know
how sad it is to drive to Blair, Wisconsin and
take the show up and they're like, what was it

(01:09:32):
that you bought? And then you have to say eight
cowboy hats and that you have to walk away with
eight cowboy hats. It was the most I mean, I felt,
this is the worst part. They asked why I bought
eight cowboy hats?

Speaker 1 (01:09:48):
Business?

Speaker 4 (01:09:49):
What do you You're right? And I should have said
that Maybe that would have been a worst answer.

Speaker 3 (01:09:54):
What would you have.

Speaker 4 (01:09:55):
Said, Like what do you buy eight cowboy hats for?
What would you say? Because there's only two options, I
think is what this guy.

Speaker 3 (01:10:03):
Was thinking, resale or I love a cowboy hat.

Speaker 4 (01:10:08):
I should have just been honest.

Speaker 3 (01:10:10):
What did you say?

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
You said you and your boys are going to the rodeo?

Speaker 4 (01:10:12):
Or what instead of having a rodeo, you got a
better party coming up? So either this guy thinks I'm
having an orgy or I'm special needs. I think yeah,
he was no in between, like, yeah, I have it
a rodeo and I just walked away like that was funny.
But the guy didn't laugh like you. You have to

(01:10:33):
laugh when you say that.

Speaker 1 (01:10:34):
The guy that you boughtled from.

Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
Do you do you feel like he would have voted
Republican or voted Democrat Republican? Yeah, he probably hates your guts.
He definitely thinks you're you. You and your buddies went
and had an orgy.

Speaker 4 (01:10:46):
Oh for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:10:47):
Well here's also the thing in front of these cowboy hats.

Speaker 4 (01:10:51):
Well, it's not the owner who's I'm getting it from.
So it's an a state sale auction site. So like
there's this business that is like the third party essentially
for all these things. But what I found out now
after doing it a few times is it's the same
person there every fucking time.

Speaker 3 (01:11:12):
It is weird.

Speaker 4 (01:11:12):
So it's Blair Auctions is the company that's through. So
now if I buy something again from this auction site,
it's gonna be there, Yeah, and he's gonna say something.

Speaker 3 (01:11:26):
He's just like next time it's a bunch of spurs, Like.

Speaker 4 (01:11:32):
There's some weird ship that you can buy. I don't
know what to do, Like I thought I was developing
a rapport with this guy. You know what this guy
thinks up such a Weirdoh you know what, the very
first thing got bought from him. Now I'm just replague
all of our conversations. Uh so the last thing I
got from that last place, I ended up getting eight

(01:11:54):
Cowboy hats and I got to n E S games
and a Miller High Life sign.

Speaker 2 (01:12:00):
So okay, yeah, I'll mixed pig.

Speaker 4 (01:12:03):
The very first thing I ever bought from him was
a box of like thirty Beanie babies.

Speaker 2 (01:12:10):
Oh boy, Oh weirdo.

Speaker 4 (01:12:14):
I'm such a weirdo.

Speaker 1 (01:12:16):
Oh boy, And I you have to send someone else
next time.

Speaker 3 (01:12:21):
I know, I know that's the beanie baby boy right
like this weirdo.

Speaker 4 (01:12:29):
This all happened, by the way, in the span of
maybe ten days. Everything's happened so fast.

Speaker 2 (01:12:34):
Dude, I'll go and do it, and then I'll say, hey,
thanks for the Cowboys hat.

Speaker 1 (01:12:39):
We had a great time with them.

Speaker 3 (01:12:42):
Yeah, the hats on, so he knows we're part of
the crew. I got a bunch of them around here.

Speaker 4 (01:12:48):
I should just start wearing them on stream. At this point, I.

Speaker 1 (01:12:50):
Heard this where you get the cowboy hats?

Speaker 3 (01:12:52):
Can I see in your defense though, on the beanie babies?
And maybe this guy doesn't know it. Maybe player auctions
isn't now. I honestly think that's ring of items does
somewhat inform me. I think I would be like this,
this guy resell shit because that all falls into line
with like beanie babies. That's like the only thing I
know about him is they're wildly valuable.

Speaker 4 (01:13:13):
In the middle at least, I also bought a like
a nineteen seventies radio, which was kind of cool. So
like that that at least does it? Was it like
something super weird at that point?

Speaker 1 (01:13:26):
Oh, he's cool.

Speaker 3 (01:13:27):
He listens to the radio like music.

Speaker 4 (01:13:31):
Oh and like a v DVD VCR which is super valuable.
Got that as well.

Speaker 3 (01:13:36):
That's true. That's the plan with all these resell all
of them.

Speaker 4 (01:13:40):
Yeah, I need to get rid of these cowboy hats asaps.

Speaker 3 (01:13:44):
This would be a really fun game to revisit. Could
you keep track of like at the end of the year.
I'd love to be able to guess, like what was
our highest what was our highest profit on any of
these items? Oh yeah, I'm keeping track.

Speaker 4 (01:13:56):
Well, it's going to be Let's hope everything sells because
that'll make everything so much funnier. If it doesn't, it'll
be only funny for you guys. It'll be just a
dark dark point all my history.

Speaker 2 (01:14:09):
What's an interesting avenues kind of dig your toe in
too with the reselling stuff not reselling, but in the
same vein is buying the misprinted money.

Speaker 1 (01:14:18):
You're finding misprinted money.

Speaker 4 (01:14:20):
Yeah, that's true. That's fun stuff some of them.

Speaker 1 (01:14:22):
It's cool.

Speaker 3 (01:14:23):
Yeah. I've been really looking into card collections recently. We
were talking about that a little bit. But my uncle Bill,
who has Down syndrome and has been a card collect
I don't know if that first part is helpful, but
you know, it informs a little bit about it. But
he is a big card collector and he has, for reference,
seven hundred thousand I did account this weekend. That's an approximate,

(01:14:47):
but baseball and football cards because he has complete year
collections for every year since like the eighties. So I've
been on a hunt recently of like how would I
even do this? Because some like two years ago, someone
was like, these will be yours, and I was like, great,
I'll fucking use them to prop up foundation. What am
I gonna do with seven hundred thousand cards? But this

(01:15:10):
is my problem with collecting stuff. I started looking through
some this weekend when I was up there, I started
making a little collection of cards no one else is
gonna want. But I'm like, oh, Tory Hunter, I'd like them.
These guys I think are cool recently helping me out,
and she's just picking out names that sound nice. It's hard,

(01:15:32):
it's not worth anything, but it's a good name.

Speaker 4 (01:15:34):
It's hard to sell cards unless they're graded, and it's
so expensive to get them graded.

Speaker 3 (01:15:39):
So yes, real talking folks have tips. I'm into it.
That's what I did till a year ago. I got
a couple of them graded, just to get an average
estimate of like, would this be worth my time to
pick out ones of big value? But it's Bill's cards
are high floor, but that floor is still like a
six or seven. They're not worth anything unless they're tense. Really,

(01:16:04):
I mean, they'd be worth something at nine, but so
you'd you'd have to turn them all in for any
max value. So I'm bid at a loss. But I
mainly brought it up to be like, oh wow, maybe
I'll get started, and I just keep getting sidetracked by
twins from the years two thousand to twenty and twenty
so far, Jake, I.

Speaker 1 (01:16:20):
Know what you mean, Like, I don't have a car collection.

Speaker 2 (01:16:23):
But if I did, I would only look for like
two thousand and four Milwaukee Bucks Charlie Bell, and I
don't think that's like worth any money whatsoever.

Speaker 3 (01:16:30):
Do you see you guys, and you're like, how'd you
ever play in the majors?

Speaker 4 (01:16:33):
Right?

Speaker 3 (01:16:35):
Sooka for the Twins? I should you not played twenty
games with us? Broke his arm, came back and then
broke his knee. I don't know if he ever played
any baseball, but I've got his baseball card, so I
get sucked into it or ones that. I'm like, this
guy rocked his card must be worth money. No, so,

(01:16:56):
but it's a real it's a real crapshoot to collect things.
But now and then, like what's worth money? I was like,
can I resell my old karate trophies? It's a oh yeah,
who knows? One a lot. I don't even know if
I've told Zach the story, but I have, sincerely, Luke.
I probably got like twenty karate trophies at home. I

(01:17:17):
was in karate for maybe three years and I made
it up to green Belt, so not very far. But
I like and my sister Emily and I rediscovered it
a couple of years ago. I don't remember this period
in my life. I was like nine, really idea, Oh
and I must have been really into exach. You might
remember some of these things I had plaque. I was like,

(01:17:38):
I was the Chipple Valley's Young Dragon. I won Young
Martial Artist, and I have all these trophies, these huge trophies,
and so of my sister. Not because I wasn't good
at any sports, and this was pre leg surgeries, so
I was actively disabled. I sideways legs at this point
and I asked my dad. I was like, was I

(01:18:00):
that good at karate? And he goes, no, you were
very enthusiastic. He's like, half of the awards were how
loud you yelled? And you won those? And he said,
then you won some of the sparring ones later because
you were so much bigger than the other kids. He said,
you want one tournament. I guess I kicked a kid

(01:18:20):
in the guts and he cried and quit. Oh yeah,
I was like, that's how you do that. Hit me
ten times, I'll hit you once. See what happens. I
think all at once.

Speaker 4 (01:18:31):
You needed to put them all in your office to twenty.

Speaker 3 (01:18:38):
That's true. I at least want to hang up the
young dragon one.

Speaker 4 (01:18:42):
Well, don't even acknowledge them, just be like, yeahs in karate,
what's the big deal? We all have hobbies?

Speaker 3 (01:18:47):
And then the judo flipped somebody, were you telling me.

Speaker 4 (01:18:50):
They'll all look at certain looking at you a little
differently for.

Speaker 3 (01:18:53):
Sure, dangerous. Do you all have a lot of trophy
somewhere for anything? And he ran them trophy collections in
the episode.

Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
Mean rabbit trophies. I guess boom rabbits at the fair.
That's a weird one. Like what do you do with
I feel weird about throwing them away.

Speaker 3 (01:19:09):
In the fair. Don't need them? What are you gonna
do recep rabbit trophies? I know, I know that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:15):
That's one you can't resell, though, because it kind of
eras is a legacy that was that you built up
for many years.

Speaker 1 (01:19:20):
Good and so like all that time would just be wasted.

Speaker 4 (01:19:23):
That's a great point, Luke.

Speaker 3 (01:19:25):
You strike me and don't take this the wrong way
at all. But you've got some baseball medal somewhere.

Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
Basketball there it is.

Speaker 4 (01:19:31):
I got a big medal, ribbons, like eighty ribbons. They
didn't give up medals and shit, yeah, what do you
do with those?

Speaker 1 (01:19:39):
I know, I think they're all in my parents' basement
right now.

Speaker 4 (01:19:42):
To be honest, Yeah, you know what I do have, Jake.
Maybe you remember this trophy. I have an Osmond Fest
bean Bag Champion trophy that was handmade by a cousin
that lives near Agenda, Wisconsin. At this point, if it's
one of the most disformed pieces of clay I've ever

(01:20:05):
seen in my life. It's terrifying looking.

Speaker 2 (01:20:08):
But yes, cut you should, and it'd be like someone
goes up there. It's like Blair Witch projects that.

Speaker 4 (01:20:17):
Honestly, if I broke down the side of the road
I saw this trophy leg on the side, I would
ship myself it is. It feels like it blogs in
that woods and it's terrifying looking. Has handwritten in permanent
marker names on the back. Yeah, I should find it.

Speaker 3 (01:20:34):
Put that trophy in all your rabbit trophies in the
middle of the woods.

Speaker 4 (01:20:38):
True, that would be That would be like someone kidnapped
and killed a small child first stored all their belongs there.

Speaker 3 (01:20:46):
Dad, it's something you put little signs next all the
rabbit trophies to your rabbit's names. Milton Rabbit rabbit graveyard.
Uh that is that's spooky. That's spooky. Uh. I think
we've did it, folks. This is all time.

Speaker 4 (01:21:04):
This was an all timer. We went to places, we
found out some dark spots about. I can't even say
my history or my past. It's my current. And I'll
give you up to if I if my Cowboy Hack
collection grows, you'll be the first to know. Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:21:19):
I actually do want to end on this. I wrote
this down earlier, so I did forget to ask Luke,
can you just tell us all the part time jobs
you had you started on those stretch or that you
were talking about coffee shop? There was some interesting ones.

Speaker 4 (01:21:29):
He's got good ones. I know a couple.

Speaker 2 (01:21:32):
Yeah, let me think. Okay, fourteen years old, they opened
up a dunkin Donuts.

Speaker 1 (01:21:35):
That was my first job.

Speaker 3 (01:21:37):
Hate coffee, yep, hate it.

Speaker 1 (01:21:40):
Taco John's my buddy's dad owned it.

Speaker 3 (01:21:44):
How do you feel about tacos?

Speaker 1 (01:21:46):
Love it? Love tacos?

Speaker 3 (01:21:47):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (01:21:49):
And then then I did a Little League baseball lumping,
which is incredible. It was like a hundred bucks. It
was like one hundred bucks a night and you get
all the free concessions you wanted. And I did it
in the summer, and I was loaded in the summer
between my senior year of high school, freshman year of college,
and then in college I got. I worked at American
Eagle for three years, which is which is.

Speaker 1 (01:22:11):
Odd, really weird.

Speaker 2 (01:22:13):
I was the only guy who worked there for like
two and a half of the years and odd job.

Speaker 4 (01:22:18):
And then we'll talk more about it, because the stories
you have for a better fun just vaping in the
back and then Telli dogs for luds every day.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):
Yeah, yeah, American Eagle, I got. So we had like
there was like station you in areas, so since I
was a guy most of most of the time, I
would be like the guy clothing section. But every now
and then I got to go into the fitting rooms
where nobody back there.

Speaker 1 (01:22:44):
I was sitting back there and just vaping up a storm.

Speaker 2 (01:22:47):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:22:47):
It was great.

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
I got my own solace back there. No one ever
came back there, so just letting it fly. And then
COVID came. Yeah, COVID came and we kind of got
shut down for a little bit, but we came back
and I was the bouncer. I had to tell people
that they couldn't come in with all wearing a mask,
and people are fucking crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:23:07):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:23:07):
That's that's when I really stopped liking the general public.

Speaker 3 (01:23:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:23:11):
But the best part of that job the chili dogs.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
So we had the mall whatever you call cafeteria where
all the you know where you got to get the food.

Speaker 3 (01:23:22):
View. Oh, I know exactly all that helps. Knowing what
mall this helps. Okay, thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:23:27):
So so I made friends with the with the chili
chili dog owner of the hot dog guy, and you
give me free hot dogs and stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:23:35):
I always gave him college basketball bets.

Speaker 2 (01:23:37):
He it just added gambler and the one the one
thing you taught me is you never bet on a
two point spread.

Speaker 1 (01:23:43):
And I've never once bet on a two point spread week.

Speaker 4 (01:23:45):
Since it's great, that's great advice.

Speaker 1 (01:23:48):
Yeah. So so next to it was a was a
Chinese place. Huf China Max Maybe.

Speaker 2 (01:23:54):
Anyways, old lady the old ladys felt bad from me,
so she gave me a small plate of orange chicken,
which was great too.

Speaker 1 (01:24:00):
So I was getting free food up the wazoo. There.

Speaker 4 (01:24:02):
Man, who for you, Oh, because you're the bouncer or
or a.

Speaker 2 (01:24:07):
Different Because I was just a poor college kid, just
kind of hanging around sitting by myself, you know, on
my lunch break, not eating anything, So that mall is
really taking a.

Speaker 1 (01:24:17):
Turn, by the way. I was there a year a
year ago, and just there's like nothing there.

Speaker 3 (01:24:22):
No I know, but I will say that's a harsh
to go from the high life of I get to
sit in the back and vape and just chill and
be with you. Right thoughts to I'm screening the door
post COVID for correct brutal. Did they let you vape
at all? Did you get to like blow in the
face of folks who couldn't come in?

Speaker 1 (01:24:42):
No, that would have been a great That's been a
great idea.

Speaker 3 (01:24:44):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:24:45):
They never they never learned about my vaping till now, right,
which is great.

Speaker 2 (01:24:51):
It was a great job, great people there, and then
just just kind of wrong about my jobs.

Speaker 1 (01:24:55):
I worked.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
I did pool construction for a summer and then and
I did uh when I worked, I worked for Lacrosse
the university in the summer doing like landscaping stuff in
the summer and cutting grass, filling bulk.

Speaker 1 (01:25:11):
And then I did I worked at.

Speaker 2 (01:25:13):
The at the cafeteria clean up after just vacuum and
stuff like that. And then I got a job doing
working for the newspaper and now I'm the communications coordinator
for the tourist public school district.

Speaker 4 (01:25:26):
And Randy says, you're jacked. Look at that, Like how
far you've come? Oh yeah, Randy, we're about to end
the show. So I would advise going to YouTube and
just taking a trip back a while, because we went
on a journey.

Speaker 1 (01:25:42):
It was.

Speaker 4 (01:25:42):
It was a good show. Anything else we want to
say before we get out of.

Speaker 1 (01:25:46):
Here, so that that value of them all. You guys
know that it was in Tiger King. Really yeah wow?
When yeah, Joe? Maybe I think someone was there Lcross.

Speaker 2 (01:26:02):
I don't know, but there it was like a one
second news clip in like the first episode of Tiger King.

Speaker 4 (01:26:09):
Huh, I'll to go. This is a game if I
watched the first Cross.

Speaker 3 (01:26:14):
The sister station interviewed Joe Exotic in two thousand and nine.
It was featured in the series Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:26:19):
Why did he come to Wisconsin?

Speaker 3 (01:26:22):
He did a show at the Valley View Mall. Great catch.

Speaker 4 (01:26:26):
Look yeah, wow, God, imagine wait what year?

Speaker 3 (01:26:33):
What year?

Speaker 4 (01:26:33):
Doesn't say what year though? Oh so it's before Luke's
vaping days in the Lack of an American Eagle. Damn,
did you imagine you're just getting chili dogs, talking college basketball,
vaping and making old Chinese ladies feel bad for you.
All of a sudden there's a Tiger and Joe exotic
walking around. That would have been incredible. Jacob Rady won

(01:26:56):
college football take, and then we'll get out of here.

Speaker 3 (01:27:02):
That's so hard to boil with that fine out. I'll
give you one, which is I think this next year,
now that they've we didn't talk about this on the
air either, all the things we did get to Uh,
now that they've officially announced the reseting, that it's going
to be peer that way.

Speaker 1 (01:27:15):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:27:15):
My prediction is that Notre Dame will I think until
they get their ship together and make Notre Dames during
the conference, I think Notre Dame is going to be
a top four seed for like the next five years.

Speaker 4 (01:27:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:27:28):
Probably you're not going to play anyone. And then, yeah,
if you had a bet on someone to make the
college football playoffs, bet on Yeah, I agreed.

Speaker 4 (01:27:43):
My college football take is that Tanner from Love on
the Spectrum is an illegitimate child of Dabo Sweeney.

Speaker 3 (01:27:48):
Oh, that's incredible. That's such a good take.

Speaker 4 (01:27:54):
See you next week. Goodbye, A nice.

Speaker 2 (01:28:05):
Sports more safe.

Speaker 3 (01:28:06):
Day side starts inside.

Speaker 4 (01:28:13):
Let it get

Speaker 3 (01:28:17):
Fuck yeah,
