I'm going to be on it. It was kind of the end of some classical piece you may have never heard of. Okay. Yeah. That's what I was going to do. Sure. I was going to be on it. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. Remember the name that tune? Remember that show where they would say the contestants would say I can name that tune in a certain number of notes. They would usually like notes. It wasn't the ending notes that they played. It wasn't like I can name that to listen to the last two notes. Oh, the last two. Yeah. That was be hard. That show always baffled me when I was a kid because it was like a where how do we all know these song like, but they were like just jazz standards or something, right? Mm-hmm. Or they they weren't popular tunes. They weren't like Tony Orlando or. Well, they were in the 1950s. Right. I mean, but that's it. They weren't they were it was always like jazz tunes, right? Wouldn't it or was it all kinds of different cat. I guess there were different categories. Aren't there? Yeah. I don't remember much about it except that there was that I never got any of them. It's like, well, yeah, I was like when you're a kid, they were like, I don't know. He'd be like, that old cheese grater. And like, I don't know what that. It was super niche too. Right. But I guess that's the only thing that I'm going to say, because that's the not only do you have to know the song yet. They're assuming there was a crowd of people that they're going, oh yeah, the cheese grater. Yeah, the cheese grater. And the rest of us were like, it's like it was like an elaborate inside joke. Right. Well, the thing is that usually it was kind of like jeopardy and that they gave clues. You know, this 1953 hit featured somebody who played the drum bone and blah, blah, blah. And they would give you all the details. And then so a lot of times you didn't even need to hear it. I mean, if you just knew what it was, you could say, I can name that note. I can name that tune in zero notes. So Wikipedia is no help because I'm looking to see where they drew their songs from. Because I don't remember knowing any of them. It was just like, because I knew some like some of the old big band songs and stuff, but there's eight. Well, Wikipedia, if Wikipedia is no help, where are you going to get help? Where are you going to go? There's nothing. Where indeed. So it's been. I feel like we need an update from Luke about the mole situation. Has the springtime encroaches? Oh, I can tell you we're going to start stirring. Yeah, they are, they've stirred all winter. Like I thought, what? I thought that they didn't, but no, as soon as the ground thawed, they were back to business. They migrate, right? They migrate south. South. The mole goes south. That's a grand mole migration. Yeah, but I went to get the mail today and it's, it's, it's bad. How is really? Okay, here's the thing though. How are, how do you keep having them? I don't, if you murder so many. I don't, I don't keep up with it. I go in spurs. He like waves of murder and then go for a few weeks and allow them repopulate. Let her rest on my, on my laurels. He kills them. Like he'll kill a bunch of them for a short period of time. You're like in a burst and then you'll, then he'll let them go and you'll see them out in the backyard. Like going on dates and stuff. You'll see them starting to court and then you know, they're going to start having flowers. Yeah, you know, they're going to start having babies and stuff and then, and then you know, I don't, I don't have the heart to kill them when they're with young. And so I've got to let them grow up and then I can kill them. Yeah, that's the trouble. That's the trouble. Then that's the trouble you're having because the, the young ones they, they grow up. They become big, big, big moles. It is amazing how just a whole yard, a whole section of my yard, this full of tunnels. I'll kill a mole there and that will be it. Like it was just one mole doing all of that damage. Oh, that nobody picks up where the other guy left off. Yeah. Passes the torch. Yeah. But I've got a lot of work to do. Have you found any recipes? Like whole recipes? No. To cook them? I want, yeah, if you have a good stew or something, well, they might motivate you more and then you'd be like, man, I could use another mole stew. No, I'm going to go back out there. I leave them out for the birds to come and snatch. Like a battlefield in biblical times. Yeah. It's just, they're out there like a gum with the wind just strewn all over the battlefield. So, yeah, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, you could feed your family. If you still have as a, as a way to provide nutrition to your growing family. That's how we usually make animals extinct, right? If we can, if we can, yeah. Well, there's, I mean, you could treat a mole like the Indians would treat buffalo, where you just use all of it. You could make it. Yeah. Little, little, uh, you can go blankets out of mole skin and you could use their claws to create utensils for, you know, digging and scratching and stuff and take their little teeth and make necklaces. Use their little whiskers for paint brushes. Use their whiskers to make mole paint brushes. Well, because I have a, I don't know if it's a mole hair brush, but use that for, um, for your shoes. I think I think I have one for mine for my beard to comb through it and stuff, but it's made with mole. Isn't, well, isn't there like a mole skin notebook? Yeah. There you go. There it is. The trouble of that is you also have to cut the paper. Yeah. I might, I might start an Etsy shop of mole, mole products. Well, I mean, you could just do, you could just lay out the skins and since it's an Etsy shop, there's some craft's person who would know what to do with those skins. Once you tan them. So you're saying don't sell them as products, sell them. Two people turn them into things. Yeah, like you're, uh, you'd be the, you'd be the Joanne fabrics of mole skin. Right. You'd be the wholesale mole parts distributor. Yeah. And then somebody like the middleman, you know, the middleman, you're the guy who sells to the people. I supply all of your mole crafting needs. Right. Right. I've had a few people tell me that from A to Z, they have a dog that takes care of their moles. And the dog will go and dig them up and play with them and kill them. But then I have a dog digging holes in my yard. I was going to say that's like an equally, an equally bad problem. Your, but your method is pretty surgical, isn't it? If I remember correctly. It's, I take out their leaders like there. I ran, he goes for the queen. Yeah. And you're kind of hoping if you take out the biggest mole, the other one's kind of just disperse. And they go on that. That is not in the case. Because then the next. Well, it comes in. It's just the. What? It's just pretty labor intensive, though, too. I mean, it's very personal. It is, it is intimate, but it's not laboratories. Yeah. I'm not standing out there under the hot sun for hours. I'm watching through my window. Right. But you do have a. You do have to. Divide my hands dirty. But it's not like a time of day where you go out there and you're like, and you look for them or can you like hear it or feel it. I can't really hear it unless I'm like right next to it. I have a similar round as kind of dry. I have a similar feud with Carpenter bees. And I can hear I can hear their. The buzz is distinct. That's just it makes the hair on the back of my neck. Now that was a problem I solved and hasn't come back. So. Oh, you're, but your house isn't a log cabin made of pine. No, that's true. That's true. So I have troubles. You do have a hornet, though. I mean, watch. Watch. Watch. Or already might. Yeah. Well, do you have the little red paper wasper? Do you have like generally it's the other. Yes, but we do get some paper wasps and some muddoppers or whatever they're called. Yellow jackets don't even like you. In some cases, I'm willing to let other be other, you know, entities coexist. Yellow jackets, they don't care. They're just coming after you. Yeah. I've never had a problem. That looks a soft skin. Let's go puncture it. I think that's the only yellow jackets have ever really been. I'm not threatening you. I was over here. I was not threatening your household. Yeah, they're not, they're not good neighbors. Said, but with the moles to like your goal, if you had never had another mole again, you'd be happy. Oh, yes. You don't, you don't find some sort of thing that I try to make the best of it. I'm enjoying the sport of hunting them. And still you're not wish they were to take a biblical steal. I would, I would do it. Like, you know, when the Israelites came into Canaan, it was like not just the women and the children and the men, but like also their. Yeah, all the subterranean critters were also. If I could give them like a tiny corner of the backyard where they could just have at it, like their own little Gaza strip, I would do it. But they wouldn't stay there. That's what I'm saying is I think I feel like I think you're, uh, because you're like, I'm willing to live in peace with you. And that's not the way that's going to happen. It's not going to like, yeah, you're going to have to genocide the moles. Yeah, which isn't a popular. It's not popular with theory these days. Not popular with the, uh, with the peace, peace nicks. Do you, uh, did you ever put a water hose in the tunnel? I'm like, uh, I think I did try that. It's not very effective. I always, cause that was, I guess that, well, I was, I think I watched too many cartoons. Because in the cartoons, they all pop up on a little spurred of, yeah, water that pops up out of the ground and you can kind of whack out and with a golf club or something. Hit him with a tennis racket. I'm held aloft by the pressure of water. That would be a great family activity if I, if it worked. Your boys are old enough to start hunting moles, aren't they? You know, give them a, yes, they are. Give them the tools and have them go at it. Yeah, that's an interesting father son activity. You know, some of them, some people take their kids fishing and you're going to go son grab a screwdriver. It's time he became a man. Well, he's upgraded from the screwdriver. I was just going to say he's got a little bit of a tool now. You got a sharpened hand tiller that I've constructed. Was it like a yard, a garden weasel or something? Whatever that is. Yeah. It was a cell like it was the one used to have to mail in for it was, it was just a bunch of spikes out of a broom handle basically. That's similar with your garden of weeds. Okay. I googled guard garden weasel. Let's see. Yeah, this is like a. Like if Wolverine, if the Wolverine clause worth had arthritis. Yeah, it's like twisted spikes and then a handle. Death from above. What in the world? I was just looked up anti-mold device and they have a windmill says mold chasing windmill. Oh, that just is supposed to make them not want to be in the area, but I don't think that that was. What is it even? What is it? Oh, yeah, is it make a lot of noise or something? It's some kind of frequency and vibration and. If I brace the ground mold, you know, we're very sensitive to vibrations to one. You can get the ground to vibrate. Is it this trap looking thing that looks like there's knives and stuff going out of it? No, I've tried the traps. That was on the shelf. Plenty of style mold trap. It's like that, I guess, but with a big handle. I mean, well, if you could, yeah, if you fill up your yard with traps, you know, if you put a trap every six inches, you know, that one. It looks like you could play croquet with them too. So you could have like a little mold. It's similar to this. Oh, with it. Yeah. Oh, okay. Wait, that's like, but that's a weed. That's usually anti weed, right? Like a way to pull it. Yeah, you can use it to pull up weeds. Yeah, or or pale moles or pale mold. Pale tiny rodents. Where are they rodents? I forgot. Yes. Well, they could be marsupials. I don't know. That's, yeah. We've got like a two for one because that's because we've removed another possum. They are not rodents a couple of weeks ago. They are small mammals classified as insect devours. What? Is that not a rodent? Apparently, it says no. What do rodents eat them? Something else. I guess they're herbivores. Rodents eat whatever, whatever they're not supposed to. Okay, did you, you're out? I think it's a good idea to say that. I think it's a good idea to say that. Speaking of the possum, did you mark the last possum so that you know this isn't the same dude? You know, we talked about it with this one. We're like, we got to start tagging these things because we're. I just never would have a on it or something. If you do that and they trace it back to you, they're going to know which ones that you released into the public park. It could be like, I don't know, John. It's not like we're bringing them from out of state. It's not like we're bootlegging possums. It's not like we're bootlegging possums. Yeah, they're already here. All we're doing is moving them to another part of the county. I don't think the population's hurting either. I don't think they're a protected species now. No, and I just wanted to me that he's ubering possums all over. I don't think it's illegal. We talked about that too. It's my wife and I were making our way across town to deposit him in the park. We thought, you know, what could they do to us? What sort of there might be a law, but how would it read? If a possum, if you come across a possum on your property, you're not allowed to take it to the park. You can't relocate it to another. That'd be weird if possums had squatters rights like that. It would be. Well, how would you, I mean, would that apply to every animal? What about squirrels? What about rabbits? What about what about other animals that live out? What about bees? You know, what are spiders? Does your does your yard have a clearly posted no possum sign? It's like, have you made it clear? Oh, yeah, have you? I wouldn't have put one up there. It's shut I don't think the possums can read. That would be difficult to argue in court, John. You can't prove that they can't read. Yeah, it's a problem. I can't. Who was I talking to this weekend about how we don't know what a. We don't know what animals think. Right. You know, for all we know they can read. They just can't speak, but if they if they can read it, if they can understand English, then this possum can't be the same possum because life explicitly told all of the possums do not come back. Or, you know, he has a disregard. He knows he's in his rights and he's going to win in the end. Oh, he's working the system antagonist. Yeah, what would be the I mean, I guess the penalty would be like a fine or something, but. If he is the same possum, he's an idiot because we caught him. We caught him like four times now. He really likes car rides with John Brand. Exactly. Well, they weren't all for the same trap every time. They work because like if you have heard a thing and this may or may not be true, when you move like if you have a cat that you let outdoors, you have to take the cat and put it in a cage and bring it to the new house and let like, it has to be in the cage for like a week. Otherwise, when you let him outside, they go back to the old house or something like if it's within reason, obviously, to not going to do the whatever long way home and go to California. But well, they are there's yeah, there's at least two miles away. Even that's crazy to a bar. You got to get drunk. You got to get him drunk. You got to do it with a blindfold on them and take them, you know, take them two miles away, blindfold them, put a bag over their head, spin them around. Right. You could turn them loose. They're in their family. They will. Yeah, they will. You sure they can. Are they? Can you catch every one of them in the coop itself? They're in the, they're in that live trap that you loaned us, which is in the chicken coop. The most recent ones, it's outside the chicken coop is not actually in the coop, but it's in the car. Prior to that, Laurie was just grabbing them by the tail. I'm not kidding. She would yell, John, I need your help. And I would call him. She'd have a pile of the tables. Like you got the job's 90% done by that point. Why was he asking for help? She needed me to hold on the cat carrier. She need weaknesses before we got the live trap from Luke. So I had to hold the cat carrier open and she would drop him in. Oh, where his face goes. We're all the sharp teeth and claws are with the rabies on them. She can drop that part over. Well, she's holding it by the tail. And so he'd be like swinging, you know, and. I thought you're supposed to, I thought they, if you startle them, they go limp, right? They pass out. Some of them do. If you scare them, they'll pass out playing. That's an involuntary thing that they do. Like, yeah, people think possums play dead. They don't. They actually pass out. They have a, they go into like a coma. They faint. At the risk of sound like a broken record here, have you tried any possum recipes? Because they're actually our possum recipes. Evidently, evidently, the Beverly Hillbillies knew a lot about possums. Granny, Granny knew how to cook a possum. Yeah, but Ellie Mae was not on board with that. Oh, well, did they ever, did they ever go on record? Did she just wish you like a vegan? She's just eating beans all the time. I wouldn't sure if she had, she left those critters. She just loved them critters as they would, as they would refer to them. I've never, I know, regardless of what y'all are thinking, I've never had, I don't think, no, I've never had possum. I've had rabbit. And I've had snake. A possum is a class two animal in Indiana. But if you get a wild animal possession permit for $20, you can keep it. Oh, oh, actually, you actually need a permit to keep it. Yeah, we think about that. Relocate it. Yeah, I mean, as far as I know, that depends on how they define keeping. They've gonna renew it annually. Why would you want more? Why would you want? I want to be at the tax office when they're like, I'd like to renew my possum license, please. Let's take the possum with you to get the permit. Oh, yeah. Why is here Chester? I was going to say Chester. Why do we think Chester? I don't know. I was trying to think of some kind of a weird backwoods. No, there's the fact that we're both thinking Chester. I mean, something subconscious. We connected. So, so, uh, AI is hopefully responding to the question, why would you want a pet possum? Okay, wait, I'm going to predict something. Yeah. They're going to say that it's not a good idea to keep a possum as a pet. And that should allow the possum to live freely and all that stuff. They always tell you it's a bad idea. And then you have to like press it to go, no, really. It's it's most people don't intentionally choose a pet possum. Right. When people keep them, it's usually because they rescued an injured baby or work in a wild life rehabilitation facility. Uh, there are a few reasons why you might want one. They are surprisingly gentle. Their main defense is bluffing and playing dead. So, that way it is not the hissing and the, uh, the, uh, off putting looks. They're valid. Say that's a defensive strategy. People find them easier to handle than squirrels and raccoons for this reason, because they're not aggressive. They are natural pests and control. They're clean. Uh, they're clean up animals to eat ticks. So clean up. Yes. Slug snails. Uh, fallen fruit. Uh, possums are less likely to carry rabies than many mammals. Your body temperature is slightly likely. It's, it's, it's very rare. It's lower, but it's always rare. It's very rare for a possum to get rabies. Huh. They have interesting personalities. Uh, people who rehabilitate them say that possums can be curious, food motivated, and they're surprisingly calm around familiar humans. They often waddle around the house and investigate everything. Yeah, it sounds familiar. Like that's basically why my wife did have a describe me. Uh, maybe possums are extremely small and clingy when young, which is when, I mean, young is usually how you find the baby possums. Uh, people who rescue orphan ones often become attached quickly. Once the imprint on human is they can, uh, become very tolerant of handling. However, there's some big downside. The caveat. No, in many states, it is illegal. Luke to keep them as pets without a permit. Not in ours. Okay. Oh, without a permit. Tell me, tell me why what scenario was it where the city council or the state legislature even decided we need to, this needs to be regulated. Someone keeping a possum. How? I don't understand what that guards against. To me, it's just, it's just another 20 bucks that you give the government. That's the whole purpose. Like, what can we, what can we charge people for? Well, who brings that up though? What can we charge people for? And then they said, well, what are people doing? What are people already doing? Let's just charge them for a permit. What does that permit look like? Do you have to put the possums name and then ink their paw on it? And you got to go in for a photograph. And then you have to take off glasses and have you. Laminate it. Then you got to keep it in your wallet. I imagine. Make sure it doesn't have a criminal history. You got a permit for this possum. I've got it here somewhere officer. He's supposed to keep that permit on the possum. How do you ever get caught? Right? I mean, I'll find you. Is this your possum? No, I've never seen that possum before. Why are you holding him? I was just taking him to the backyard and I'm free. Well, I mean, if you got like a collar on him and there's like a crochet knitted sweater then there's a little, yeah, that'd be a little problem. We used to. Yeah. You're going to have to talk yourself out of that one. They have very specific diets. If you give them too much protein, it can cause bone disease. And they have a short lifespan. So, how long do you live? Four years. Thirty six hours. No, it's good. They do. Really fast. Fifteen minutes. Two to four years. Two and a half. That's assuming that you don't live by a busy street. Oh, my gosh. I told you that I saw. I was one of the tree stands that we hunt from has a nightly possum that comes out and just skrees around. Amosly. Well, I'm sure he's doing something, but it's just it's fun to watch. He's just looking for roadkill to feast on. Well, they eat, you know, slugs and roaches and bugs and stuff. Do they eat roadkill? I don't think they do. No, they are the roadkill. Yeah. They eat each other. Yeah. Why, Oh, man. But they've got, you know, they've got a little possum agenda, a little, a little possum. Possum list of things to do. They check off every night. Are they not, to the possum acc Hyun. They're not able. Are possums and monogamous, let's see. They made for life. They made for life. It's like four years. So I mean, it's not like not much of a commitment. Not a big commitment. No. They are large solitary and not monogamous. No. And they do not always be young. It's our diamond anniversary, three years. Yeah. Yeah. So it's warm enough. And so the critters are starting to move here. And Indiana and we're gearing up for that. It's kind of warming up sort of. How does one gear up? What are you doing with your gear? What gear are you up? We're just putting bait in the live trap. Sharpening my sharp edges of kind of dead. So what's the difference between the destruction? I forgot about. So is that a specific thing? Are you using it other than its intended purpose to effectively kill moles? I haven't used it to actually, for its intended purpose, years and years and years. But it's not a mole stick. It's like a wood. It is not. But it's not about marketing it with my kills. And then you see my. I'm taking a mole. Yeah, like hash marks or something. Or you like to have the silhouette on there. Oh, yeah. A little teardrops on it. Ace. No. I mean, you went with the present tats. I was thinking like World War II bomber. Right. I would like. But yeah, but that's fine. That's cool too. All you got to do is, you know, modify it a little bit and then resell it. You were talking about Etsy. You need to, I wonder if there's some sort of a club you could start an association of a lot of people who see my first post and who are like, I need you at my house. And so if all my other career options fall out, I could just stand in people's yards staring. Well, I mean, you know what they say? If you, if you could get paid doing what you love, you know, you never work a day in your life. I can say I'm in surveillance or, you know, murder. I'm in murder. Murder for hire. It's not what you think, but it might be what you think. Yeah. I dabble in murder. Did you have a double? Well, it wasn't you. It was a friend of yours who had an exterminator come over to remove the bees from the chimney and then wasn't allowed to go up on the roof because of insurance. Is that? Yeah. He called like Orkin or some major company and they were like, oh, I'm not allowed on the second story. But here's what I would do. And then so my friend was like, well, to go up and do it. And then he's not allowed to get sick. Yeah. And he really, he was not allowed to go up on the second story roof. The exterminator is not allowed to go where the bees are. He's not allowed to pursue them off of the ground. That is so weird. It's purpose is probably. Well, but what kind of insurance kind of what kind of exterminator are youngth you couldn't, especially like, well, think about a poor one. Right. Yeah, that's true. They can't. Like one day, you know, when we work up, when our client base is a little wider, we'll be able to add that second tier to our insurance. It's actually a pretty good, it's actually a pretty good business model because from what I understand, the guy just gave the homeowner his equipment and the homeowner went up and took care of the B problem. Now that's, that's a great business model. If you, if your service is paid or nothing more than bringing things to the homeowner and having them do all the work and then you charge them. They should have a key ask at the store, like the, like the rug doctor stuff. You just go and rent your claim-thrower or whatever pest control device you need. Right. And you pay them to use their equipment. It's, it's, you remember those restaurants where you could, you could grill your own steak. You go in and pick it out and then you took it to like a table or someplace in the kitchen or whatever and then you made your own food at the restaurant. Yep. That's genius if you could get people to do. Yeah. Fondue. Yeah. Is it different? Yeah. Exactly, man. I would never do that. I would never go someplace and cook a steak. I was going to say you would never start a business where people do their own thing. Oh, throw you. You go to good fro you. That's, you make your own frozen and then you pay them by the pound. That's how I thought I was pretty brilliant. My mom, I didn't know about this place and she just, I guess, because her grant, you know, my brother's kids. And so we went to Florida and she's like, let's go get fro you and I get so. And then it's, you, you, I didn't know. I thought you were just, I thought was a flat fee. So I loaded up. You had the big cup and it was like, you know, I guess you, I'm trying to remember when the last time either at like, Ryan's or when you're on a cruise, they don't charge. They don't, you just load it up. So then you got the topics or it's like a buffet of its own. So you have, you know, M&Ms and gummy worms and Oreo cookies and you're like, it's like, yeah, you're just kind of, and you're not even, you're just dumping, you don't even use a spoon anymore. You just pick up the whole shrego and dump it in there and then they go put it on the scale and you're like, what? I thought that we were, we mean scale, we're this, it's just a flat fee right now. Can you have been like, by the pound? Could you have been like, never mind? You know what? For $45, I don't need it. You can take it. I'm gonna put all this back. Just, just, just, just, just scoop it out of there and just kind of just flop it back. Yeah. Yeah. That doesn't work anywhere else. It seems like like there was a, there was a time, not that long ago where we're all sorts of restaurants. We're doing a make your own this and make your, was there a make your truckers movie place where you could go in and basically they would pile all the things into a blender. I feel like I remember because you, you just throw it all in a cup, right? And you go and blend this. And then they grind it up. Blend it. Yeah. That's actually difficult to create a good tasting smoothie just based on throwing stuff in a cup. Like there's, there's an art to it. You think? I think so. If you ever tried to make your own smoothie. I had somebody at the coffee shop make me the first matcha that she had made, which kind of surprised me that they hadn't made one before. And she goes, I said, do you have matcha here? And I know the, I know the girl at the moment. And she goes, I can, she goes, I can make you one. I don't know if you don't, you just not, you don't have it. She goes, no, but I know like a shot at it. She made it and it was not that good. So wait. Not good. It was off menu, but they had matcha. I thought that was just another a fan's name for green tea. It kind of is. It's a, it's a type of green tea. Why did they have matcha if they didn't sell anything with matcha in it? I'm just telling you what she told me that that wasn't the one. It was not good. That's like that reminds me in college. They opened up this new like food. It wasn't the cafeteria, but it was like a thing in the dorms. It was like a, you could pay a little extra. It was like a sandwich. There was a sandwich shop. You go, you go into the history department and you get free pizzas. They opened a sandwich shop that you could go and get wraps and that kind of stuff. So I would go in there and get like a six inch hoagie, what was it? Salami and kind of thing. So I remember staying in a couple of times. So once was cheddar and another time I would get like provolone, then I went to mozzarella and I was like, wait a second. Do they have all these cheeses in there? So I looked over and they basically they only had two stacks of cheeses. They had yellow cheese and a white cheese. I'll take Swiss, oh, the white cheese. I'll have a American. Oh, you'll get a yellow cheese. I'll have a party. That's white cheese. Yeah. Well, I don't, I was talking this week in the comedy workshop at the home school or college about sandwiches. You know, they brought them up and a sandwich is not a thing that that's considered fine dining, right? But yet you can still buy sandwiches at virtually every restaurant. And so what, you know, what is it that? Why is it that it's a, why is it a lower class? It's a $17 sandwich in this restaurant. You know, it's a $4 sandwich in this restaurant and it's basically the same ingredients. I'll take a toast to ham and cheese, medium rare. Parrot with a fine bread and a nice rosé or something. Your question, why is it not an upper scale? Like, why don't you have a black tie sandwich restaurant? Right. Why? Why? And that was my question to them. It's like, would you, like, would it be funny to get dressed up like to rent a tux to go to subway? And they all laughed and I go, why is that funny? And then that's what we talked about. What's what? Why would you, the incongruence there of going out for a fine dining experience in some way? He went to Jared's favorite sandwich shop. Nice. Is Jared's national? There's not a local thing. That was a commercial that they ran for a while. He went to Jared's. That dude's in jail, I think, isn't he? He at least was. Yeah. He got in this trouble. Yeah. They don't talk about Jared at subway anymore. They don't talk about him. They don't care how much weight he lost. He is. They didn't even replace him. They're like, we're not doing this again. Can we find another guy that lost a lot of weight? It's like, that's not. It's just, I don't even think subway advertises anymore, do they? There's like, you know, we're just, we're just going to coast. We're not having to tell people what come in. We're doing fine. They use Shaquille O'Neal at one point, I think. I think Shaquille O'Neal has been the spokesperson for everything. That's true. I thought those general auto insurance commercials were local. I thought they were Georgia commercials until Shaq showed up and I was like, wait a second. Yeah. This poorly designed scene. No, I figure it's not a public. It's PowerPoint quality. It's like, wait a second. What's going on here? It gives you some idea how much money those supplemental insurance companies make. Or counterpoint, I think Shaq just likes doing commercials. You don't really have to pay it. Not just really believes in the product. You didn't really, you don't have to pay him that much. It's just like Shaqille, you do a commercial for this. I'll talk about it for free. You know, Shaq is not using the general insurance. Yeah. Well, you may be, maybe, maybe correct you on to some level. I mean, when you've got as much money as Shaquille O'Neal has, you got to do something with your time, right? Why not make crazy commercials? That was much trouble with the Tom Brady Hertz commercials. It's like, what are you doing here, Tom? Just go home. Just have a phone television. Stale of my television. Well, he's just having fun. It's either that or something. I can only play video games. What if it is a kind of thing where he has to keep moving or he gets sad? Yeah. It's like, what are you? It's like, here, honey, just sit here for a second and he just kind of slowly droops. Well, I think we're all the way. What if you had, what if you had as much money as a country, you know, like Shaqille O'Neal or Tom Brady? Hunting people for sport has hunting people for sport just gone the way of the, I mean, what would you do publicly? In the public eye. What would you do that you get in trouble for? Well, I'd tell you what, I know how many possums I can keep. At least three or four. I wonder if you could chain them all together and have like a sled, take a sled through town. That would take a lot of fun. How many more power than vehicles? How many possums? One crack of the whip though and you're sitting still. They all just kind of pass out. How many more power? There's like much more power than you're going to have a pull a sled. I'm sorry to say that a possum does not have a measure or more amount of horsepower. However, they could likely generate a tiny fraction of one horsepower. So, a tiny fraction of one. Yeah. But I would think if I had a lot of money though, I don't know if I'd be doing commercials. I would be wasting it on really stupid stuff like that though. Oh, they're slow. Four miles per hour is their top speed. It's their top speed. You could totally run down. Maybe armadillos are a better play than they go pretty fast. Although they didn't know this until this last year, they jump straight up in the air. Possibly four or five feet armadillos. Like if you scare them, they go, they'll jump straight up like four or five feet in the air. And that's nuts. And then you kick them. I would have a crazy big car. That's one thing. There's a thing called a F650. Have you ever seen one of those? No. Google it. It's Ford. It's a Ford. Usually it's like reserved for like a semi truck size, but you could put a truck bed on it. And that's what you would have just to drive around. I don't know. I might ride a buffalo through town. I might get or a bison, sorry, but they don't they don't have buffalo anymore. Might buy a bison. And see if I could domesticate it. But would that be okay? Would riding a bike for a real car insurance come or something? There's a difference between bison and buffalo. I have an important question. Oh, go ahead. Sorry. So it's riding a bison through town. Because you have so much money that you, it doesn't matter. If you're riding a bison through town, does that make more sense than shooting a commercial for the general for free? I think my time is better served over free. I think one, I think riding a bison would be more fun than shooting a commercial, I think. Yeah, well, but that was a personal taste, but you see what I'm saying. You want to use your own bison? You would be known as the bison guy. So like branding, you'd make more money by riding a bison around. I can't stop earning money. I'm trying to do these crazy things. You'd be in commercial with the bison. Yeah, without my permission, probably. Accidentally be the commercial. Somebody would start an insurance company called bison guy. Yeah, just like a brand new. We're just kind of like critical mass, right? Where it's like, I've got so much money, I'm just going to start riding a bison everywhere. And then that's going to make money too. Yeah, you can just despite that's not your reason for doing it. I've got to lose money. Yeah, then the bison spins off and has its own independent franchise. And then you get paid residuals for that. Right. And so that's the point of Brewster's millions if you've never seen that movie. Is that he can't stop making money? You can't, you can't wait, was it? He has to get 30 million dollars in the in the remake. He has to get rid of 30 million dollars and have nothing to show for it. Oh, and then and then he won a hundred hundred million. Nothing physical to show for it. Right, right. You can't have kept it. Wait, you said the remake. He gets rid of a lot before the Richard Pryor one. Yeah, but he couldn't, he couldn't like, by real estate or, or, you know, invest it in, in something he couldn't, he couldn't have any assets to show for it. So he had basically wasted it and he couldn't give it away either. He couldn't, he couldn't just donate to some to charity. Well, some, yeah, but not all of it. Well, I'm flabbergasted. So the Richard Pryor movie was a remake of some hardware movie. Yeah. Are you serious? There are original Brewster's millions, yeah. That's blowing my mind. Yeah. I remember actually watching it for the first time going, wow, this is a nice original. You know, what a cool original. Finally, Hollywood is producing something original. You know, you're looking it up, Mallorna. Should you want? Yeah, I gotta see you with the, well, here's the eyes. Look at that up instead of looking up recipes for preparing pasta. We're now sidetracked on. So while he's doing that, do you have something? Yeah, something Luke. Did you guys, y'all had a show though, right? We did have a show. My first one in a very, very long time. Uh, October of 2024 actually. What's a new, a new year? No, she hasn't done a show since October 2024. I know, right? No, right? Okay, that doesn't sound like that long ago, but it is kind of what's a new year that you did that that was good. I did go with you to that corporate show that you didn't end up bringing me on stage with. That was December of 2024, but that was it. That was the last. Yikes. I know, right? So I did pretty good for being that rusty. I feel like I thought it went well. Yeah, I thought it went well. Duan, I did my online college degree bit that I threw out here and it worked. Oh, nice. What was it refresh my, what was the premise again besides it being an online one? The premise was that the whole thing felt like a scam because of how easy it was to get out of it all on my phone in the bathroom basically. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's right. I remember that now. Yeah. So that's fine. Yeah, it was basically that anybody could do it. And if you just replace scrolling on Facebook in the bathroom with, you know, writing a paragraph or so on an assignment, you can graduate like 40 to 50 poops. That punchline works even on kind of one. To you. Was there a was there like a moment of like silence when you kind of let it sit for a second or did was did that hit pretty quick? No, it worked. It worked. Like you would hope it would. So that's good. I'm glad. Now I'm just saying I've had I've had jokes like that going man, they're going to laugh right after that. I've literally had to wait like three or four seconds. Just to let it. That's a long time. And even then, the melody goes just count. It was that, did I ever tell you about that bid I had about, um, why do we, with longer numbers? Uh, I should like with a credit card number. You just or your social security number, you just you should say it and that's place value. Anyway, that was a dumb idea. But I did it. And then I would wait and people would start laughing like literally three seconds after. And that's a long time and comedy. Thanks for over two years. Yeah. Good for you for waiting. Well, I think that I was the first time I did it. Melody goes, you need to wait because people don't get it right away. I'm like, okay. That's it's hard to do, man. And four seconds. That's a long time. So what did you learn about bridge millions? There was the original was in 1945, starring, uh, Dennis O'Keefe and Alan Walker and June havoc. That sounds like a Marvel character. That just reminds me that my dad would leave, uh, turn our movie classics running. And it's like now of the classic, Barbara Paradise with James, James Montgomery and Barbara, and that's like all these names, I know Barbara. I'm trying to think of who's. Yeah, he's like, who are they just normal names? Cindy Crawford. No crap. Why don't you come up? I'm literally trying to grab her. And what I just nodding along and like, who? Dad, I don't know any of these people. I thought I knew some, like, you know, uh, great. Now my brain goes blank. Chuck Connors. Yeah, yeah, Barbara Stanwick, that's another. Yep. So I brought this up on this recession before, but my wife recently, and I had a, a disagreement about what the phrase on the way home means. I think he did. Did I? Okay. What, what was the, what was the, the delineating? I've realized that I learned it from my mom. My mom used to do this. Like she never went out to do a single thing. She would do a whole series of things. She would do the thing and then on the way home, yeah, would do a whole bunch of, even if those other on the way home things were the opposite direction. Right. On the way home doesn't mean geographically it's along the way. It's just on the journey as a whole on the way back home. It gets incorporated. And so, so technically it's on the way away from home. On the, yes. In the opposite direction of home, we're doing this. Then we're going home. Right. That would get counted in in the trip on the, in the way, on the trip home. It's, yeah, we might have to stop a few different places. Right. Across state lines doesn't matter. It's on the, on the way home. Right. Gosh. That's what we're going to do it before we arrive at home. Yes. It's the next stop regardless of where physically that's a tough call. That is a tough call. I could see why a person would say unless it's your last leg, you can't say you're on the way home because you're on the way somewhere else. But if the person doing it, if your intent is my final destination is home, because I mean, if you like Frodo Baggins, yeah, it works like that. You're coming, if you're coming all the way from Mount Doom back to the Shire, there's going to be some stops to be here to get there for Carinal out. Well, unless you're directly on the route that you're taking home, then it's out of the way. And so that, that was your point, right, Luke? It's not all the way home. Yeah, that's a man's point. Yeah, most of the stops are not technically on the way home. Most things are not on the way home, right? Yeah. Most things are, but the way that it's said, it implies that, oh yeah, we're on the way home. But since we're just passing right by the front door of this other establishment, then we'll, you know, like we dropped off a possum at the park on the way home. Now we left our home. Yeah, you're saying there's a one second area. If home is the last destination, then everything in between is on your thing. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, you can't. Okay, I get the, I'll go with that because otherwise, nothing, it never would make sense. If you are, if you could just say, you could be in your rock and chair going, well, I'm on the way home. Well, you got to get up and basically every time you leave the house, you're going somewhere that's on your way home because you're going. Lord willing, you're, you know, Lord willing. You could find yourself caught in a possum trap or something. So you're pushing you. But we don't say it that way though. We don't go like on the way out to the grocery store. If the grocery store is the only place we're going, we don't say, well, see you. I'm on the way home. I'm going to swing by the grocery store on my way home. Because that's exactly where you're going. It's like where else are you going? It's like I'm just going to the grocery store. And then I'm going to be back here. If you don't make a distinction, then yeah, then that's like, it's never going to mean anything. If nothing. We got to do that. I get it going out to the mailbox on my way home. In my case, what I'm saying, I'm on my way, that means I'm almost getting up to go get in the car. To come. Yeah. Are you on your way home? I'm like, I'm just a, I'd say I'm on my way. Yeah, I'm on my way home. Yeah, but that means is I'm about, I'm just about to get up and go get it. I'm getting ready to close my laptop. Yeah, for the car. Processes are happening, but I'm not technically. All right, that's my idea, right? You're always on the way home. Assuming that you're going to stay there, you know, tonight, the only time you wouldn't be on the way home is if you're staying like a hotel or an Airbnb, if you're not spending the night at home. But just, and as I think as Christians, we're always on the way home, you know, always. Well, I guess the overnight stay would do. He calls his home. The vacations on the way home. We're going to spend a week in Florida on the way home. On the way home. So weird. A lot of times we say it just to make it sound like it's not an inconvenience. I was like, I'll do that on my way home, even though. Yeah. Even though it's in Kansas. Yeah, building. I'll build a house on the way home. Yeah, everything. Literally everything. Well, I was, I was going to bring up my problem with solitary, but we can kick it off next week with a. I love it for hangers. I'm going to do that from now on. Politiric. Because who knew for solitary? I'm a doctor. Yeah. We're Luke. And did Luke make it. Luke make it back. Luke senses that we're almost done. So he just flips his lap. Oh wait, real quick. John, did you have a new bit from your from that that same night that Luke, did you have a new one that you snuck in? You do a new bit the other day. Did I? No. I don't think so. Well, I did throw out a thing that I thought about that afternoon. And it was an idea for a new business. And I'm like, I said, I've got an idea for a new business that I'm going to start. I'm going to get a bunch of movies like DVDs and movies. And I'm going to put them in a store and let people rent them. I think that's a business idea that's got some legs. Oh, I got a soft channel. I got a truck. I didn't get a big gaffer, but it got a little laugh. So you could put, uh, I don't think you could do is install phones and public areas and charge people like five cents or 25 cents to just make a call. Like if they just want to stand out on the sidewalk. And I'm like, man, I need to call somebody. I think it just you could just take your spare change and make a phone call. You're right. You give me a quarter and I will let you call somebody from this phone that I have hard wired to a wall. You can't go anywhere. You got to stay here. You got to stay right here and make a call. Yeah, well, man, ahead of my time. Or if you happen to want to change into a uniform of some kind, you could give us a bureau costume. With windows all around, so we're going to watch. Yeah, I remember phone booths. They would have like a little booth that people could go into and make a phone call. That was a real thing. Actually happened. How was it? You had your own room. We used to do for a phone call. And now you just leave it on speaker phone. Nobody cares. That was for privacy. We had to close a little door so like no one can hear you. And now it's like they just not only can they hear you talking on the phone. Now you have it on speaker phone. So everybody can hear the entire conversation. All right. It's the opposite of privacy. It's like, hey, everyone, I want you to hear this thing that I'm talking about. Has nothing to do with you. I want you to hear what I'm saying. I don't want you to hear the other because I've got headphones in. I want you to hear my half of the conversation at a regular speaking volume. All right, goodbye, everybody.
