Introduction and Baldur's Gate Conundrums
00:00:00
Speaker
Welcome back to another episode of the Mythic Draft Podcast. I'm Chris. And I'm Ron. Or as I like to be known, a level nine bard. Ooh, level nine. Yeah. Kind of have a Baldur's Gate conundrum of ethics. Oh, those are always hard. Well, I got to an ending. Oof. Yeah.
00:00:30
Speaker
Wait, but oh, level nine. Yes. Wow. I saw some I didn't see like any like spoilers, but I saw some maniac speed run it in like 10 minutes.
00:00:45
Speaker
Seems impossible. I don't. I'm sure it's some glitch or something. You computer people and your Excel spreadsheets. It's fair. Yeah, but I got to an ending and I was like, I'm not ready for that ending. So I reloaded.
Game Mechanics and Ethical Decisions
00:01:03
Speaker
Did it differently, you know, but it feels it feels cheapened. It feels like I should start again. You know,
00:01:16
Speaker
Well, I mean, was the ending you reached like it doesn't sound like you were happy with it. So yeah, I said it was an ending. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Yeah. So yeah. Well, I have 10 more days for where I can play it. So it's true. Yeah. Well, I'll definitely be done by then. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, the last part. Oh, OK. Yeah.
00:01:41
Speaker
God, they must have some expansions or DLC or something planned because to be at level nine and in act three. Well, apparently they said that they're not going to go past level 12. Oh, OK. Because D&D spells get bonkers after level 12. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Let's say, yeah. Oh, I guess a lightning bolt. Let me roll 95 D12. Well, it's it's it's here. I mean, there's literal spells called Wish. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:02:10
Speaker
I wish this didn't happen. OK. Poof. Poof. Yeah. So according to Larian, they didn't want to do adventures above level 12. I can appreciate that. That's a kiss. Yeah. Yeah. I've seen people who have made like monks that do like 200 damage a hit. Jesus. Yeah. Yeah. Monks can be crazy. Yeah. Yeah. It's like flurry of blows. Oh.
00:02:38
Speaker
I'll burn one of my 85 key points to do it again. Yeah. Well, I'm playing my liar. Fire raining all around. There's Ron. I just wanted to. Yep.
00:03:00
Speaker
My whole party's on fire, but I'm playing the lute. It's good though. It's good for your soul to watch other people burn. I guess. It is hard to be a good guy in this game. Oh yeah. There are so many times you're like,
00:03:27
Speaker
This is ambiguous. I don't
Co-op Play and Cross-Play Challenges
00:03:29
Speaker
know what the right way to go is. Oh, gosh. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I kind of like that because some of the games that do like, you know, that it's either like blue or red or something like that. It's like, OK, this is a giveaway. Yeah, no. There's things that I've done and I'm like, I don't feel great about that. Trust your heart. But that was the thing you had to do at the time. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that cat deserved to be kicked.
00:03:54
Speaker
There was a part where I was like, Oh no, I'll do this and then I'll go back and fix it later. It'll be okay. And they took that away from me. Yeah. Yeah. It's been good. I'll keep playing my destiny until next Saturday. Oh, next Saturday. Yeah. I'll be at town next Saturday. Yeah. Yeah.
00:04:22
Speaker
Apparently there's a, there's a, I don't know, you don't even know if it's going to be cross play. Apparently there's like an issue where if you join someone's game as a co-op member, like they're stuck with your character and their party for the rest of the game.
00:04:37
Speaker
Yeah, that could be fun or that could be very detrimental. Yeah, it could be super. It's good if you're playing like with a group of people. Yeah. You know, if you guys only play that group together. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's just like, yeah, I'll help you out with this one quest. And then you're stuck with, you know, Zippy, the, you know, three legged mule. Right.
00:05:00
Speaker
You can't
Weather, Grass Cutting, and Comcast Issues
00:05:02
Speaker
interact with that character, you can't give him levels. Oh, gosh. You're stuck with a level one guy? You're stuck with a level one wizard? Yeah, a level one wizard. Oh my gosh. Really helping out the party here. Yeah, thanks. Ooh, summon you're familiar. Ooh, magic missile. You got him for three damage. Yeah.
00:05:26
Speaker
Wow, the bass is the big bosses and you're for 126 damage. Yeah. You do a death saves. Yeah. Level one was just crying in the corner. I have a dagger. Firebolt. I can guess. Shocking grasp. Do you feel that tingle? Oh boy. Gotcha.
00:05:53
Speaker
Oh, God, that's funny. But Fireball is still the best spelling game. Yeah, it's still it's always. Yeah, always Fireball. Yeah. Splash damage. Be damned. Yeah. Well, they shouldn't. The civilians shouldn't have been in the way. This poor guy. I'm just sure to buy a pie. It's not his fault that voters get to city. It's very popular. Yeah, it is. It is.
00:06:23
Speaker
and Gail with his fireballs. Yeah, I'm ready for my to finish this playthrough because I already want to be done with the book. Oh, nice. It's fine. Yeah. It's like it feels like hard mode a little bit. Yeah. Well, I mean, that's what you usually choose anyway. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm ready to smite things with a holy hammer. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
00:06:54
Speaker
Well, I can say that, uh, one thing I did not miss on my little trip last week was humidity. Oh, well in the mountains, there was no humidity. Yeah. That's where there was, we left. It was 68. We got down here. 91. Yeah. Yeah. Stupid. Just utterly stupid. There was 95 yesterday and it was like 78 today. So yeah. Well, it's gorgeous today. Yeah. Down here. It was like 88, 90.
00:07:24
Speaker
Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. Up here, it's breezy and 70s. It's gorgeous. I mean, it's not horrible down here, but it's not like, you know, I want to lounge. I honestly didn't feel like I was going to die cutting my grass. So, you know, like it's another win. Yeah. Oh, God, I cut my grass Saturday. And yeah, I thought I was going to die. Yeah, yeah. Stupid wasps. You didn't take care of the wasps, huh? Well, I took care of one nest of them. I didn't realize there was a second.
00:07:54
Speaker
And then now I'm gun shy. When I go around there, like if a stone kicks up, I'm like, Oh, it's just, you know, stone. We had two wasps in the firehouse the other day, and we have that assault gun for killing the flies. Yeah, it doesn't kill wasps. Really? No, I was going to buy one to kill the wasps. I'm glad I didn't. So it just pisses them off. Kind of pisses them off. Hmm. Takes a couple of shots to get them down. Gotcha. Yeah. What you can do is you take a pressure washer.
00:08:23
Speaker
and you hook it to a can of gasoline and you put a torch at the end and you take care of it. Don't do that folks. Beside my house, on the other side of the fence, I usually cut that strip between mine and Matt's yard.
00:08:42
Speaker
He's got a peach tree there. The other day I went to cut it and I looked, I was like, Oh, some peaches fell. And I look, they're giant, like three inch hornets everywhere. I was like, Oh, I grass isn't getting cut for a while. Turned around. Oh, I don't know if I've ranted about this rage about my grass. So Comcast, which I don't have Comcast. I don't know why anybody on my street would have Comcast because we have fiber optic Xfinity or fiber optic phios. Yeah.
00:09:12
Speaker
So last week, or the week four, most of the week four, I see the, like, I'm like, who is that guy just walking around my driveway? He's walking past my driveway and I walk back and he goes like, there's a bush and you can't see him. So I got there and I was like, fuck, it's Xfinity. What is he doing? And there's an Xfinity box or an old Comcast cable box, really, on the street, but it's just over my property line. So it's not on my side, it's on my neighbors.
00:09:41
Speaker
But I guess there's a problem with the person three houses down.
00:09:46
Speaker
So what did they do? They just ran a cable from that box to the box three houses down and they just left it in my yard. What? Yeah. So there's little flags. So I can't cut my grass because I can't cut that part of the grass because I was all cut up there. Precious little
Shopping Habits and Household Routines
00:10:02
Speaker
cable. Oh, I cut it up. Oh, I've been driving on it purposely. Yeah. Putting as much weight as possible. Covered in peanut butter and let Atticus attack. Yeah.
00:10:13
Speaker
But I'm saying, OK, they'll probably send a crew out this week to fix it. And if they mess up my brand new driveway, it is going to be on like Donkey Kong. Oh, yeah. But no, it's been two weeks still just sitting out there. Grass is growing up in the stupid cable. It's driving me nuts. Let's say watch if they try to trench it under your driveway, because that's what they did. They did to my neighbors and
00:10:42
Speaker
They were like, oh yeah, yeah, we backfilled it. It's all good. Yeah. A month later, he's got this dip down in his driveway where it is. Yeah, that's going to be, uh, it's going to be a thing I'm going to be unhappy with because the county just redid the gutters. So not going that way. Cause they, the guy just redid them like this summer. So I'm sure the county will not look kindly on that. Why doesn't this person just get Fios? That's what I said. There's already Fios Ron. What are you doing?
00:11:13
Speaker
I should go to the nearest house. Do you really need this cable? Let me tell you about BIOS. Let me tell you about fiber optic instead of this crappy coax bullshit. So and this is I'm going to sound very, I don't know, ignorant, something out of whatever. So we're at that meeting today. We're talking about all the, you know, thing, the initiatives going on in the city. The Little Village. I think it's great. You know, they're helping people transition from homelessness to being home.
00:11:41
Speaker
Yep. They have fiber optic network. Why don't I? Yeah. And of course, the comment was, we'll just lose your house and then you can go. Yes, because that makes sense moron. Right. That's. I don't understand why. Well, it's because you live on the shore. It's it's literally the town of Dover's fault. Yeah. Oh, yeah, I remember.
00:12:10
Speaker
Yeah. But then how does Salisbury have it in some places? Uh, apparently a new company came in and they are running, um, fiber optic through like Bethany beach, I think. And so you have that now, um, it's getting there. You'll, you'll, you know, 10 to 12 years, 10 to 12 years you'll have fiber optic. Yeah.
00:12:38
Speaker
And then we'll, you'll be moved on to the next thing. Right. But, uh, yeah, yeah. I mean, it's one of the reasons I, when I look at houses, I'm like, I don't know that I want to live in this house because I don't have any, uh, cyber optic. Yeah. You're gonna have to run all new T 58, whatever.
00:13:02
Speaker
Well, you know, I got to have my, on my Excel machine, good internet. So I can do my spreadsheets. Your turbo tax. My turbo tax. I was complaining the other day.
00:13:24
Speaker
I have an older iPad that I use. I only use it for Comixology to read comic. And yeah, it was like running slow or something. So it was just getting new iPad. I was like, this works, though. I don't need a new iPad. All I use the iPad for is read comics. I'm not buying a. Eight hundred dollar. Frickin whatever box to read a comic book. You know what I'm worse about that about shoes?
00:13:52
Speaker
These shoes are still shoe shaped. I'll keep them for a little bit longer. And there's literally coals and the heels. Oh, if my feet don't hurt, I don't need shoes. Right. My feet still hurt. I'm like, nah, I can, I can live a little bit longer. Well, I always do the, I can put new insoles in them. Right. Now that I finally found out that you take the other insoles out. God, I felt like such an idiot.
00:14:20
Speaker
For those of you who haven't tuned in in the past, I had shoes that I was like, man, they're so much taller now because I put my insoles in. What are you talking about? It's like, yeah, because they fit in over top. They're like, you take the original stuff out and you put the insoles in. It's like, oh, that makes sense. It makes a lot more sense. Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:40
Speaker
Yeah, because we've been walking so much, the wife and I, and so we're like, my shoes, I mean, they're raggedy. They got holes on both sides now. I'm like, ah, I could probably make it till like December. It'll be a nice birthday treat. Yeah. The only ones that don't mess with my work shoes, I keep them on a regular, pretty much six months they get chucked. That's how I get new insoles from my work shoes. Yeah. I feed or two.
00:15:08
Speaker
Why did I mess up like the sides of the shoes? Yeah. And once that goes, it's like, nope. Can't add that anymore. Yeah. In fact, I got a new pair of work shoes today. Nice. Yeah. With the old Dick's Sporting Goods. I was shocked at how much, how good their selection was. I would assume that would be bad. I don't usually go to Dick's. Yeah, no. Dick's is like the place now. Yeah.
00:15:39
Speaker
Well, for you guys, because, you know, there's nothing down here left in your mall. No. Well, technically, it's not part of the mall. Well, sir, that's why they can have different hours. Yeah. But yeah. Yeah. Let's say the band is selling. Yeah. Oh, for five dollars, people can get 25 percent off on one day in October at Boscov. So it's like, oh, is the Bosco still there? Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
00:16:09
Speaker
That's where everybody 90 and above goes to shop. That's fair. Golly day. Yeah, my mother was in town recently and she was like, I went, she went to the mall and I'm like, why did you go to the mall? She's like, why haven't you been there forever? It's not nice anymore. I'm like, no. This is why we have Amazon. Yeah. Yeah.
00:16:38
Speaker
That's what Amazon's for. Nobody wants to go to the mall. Yeah. I don't want to interact with other humans if I don't have to. Yeah. Ever. I just, I still struggle to buy shoes online. Oh yeah. There's still something of the, I need to try them on. Yep. Yeah.
00:17:01
Speaker
Do you really know what you're doing when you try them on though? Hell no. Okay. I know I don't. It was like the last time I tried on shoes, my wife took me to Vernon Powell or whatever. And I was like, Oh, I want to see these. And the girl was like, well, sit right here. So I sat down, she came over and she put the shoe on my foot. I felt like Cinderella. She laced it all up. She's like, I'll take a few steps. Yeah. Hop around how they feel. I was like, like shoes. I don't know.
00:17:30
Speaker
My wife's shaking her head. Did they feel good? I was like, yeah. They feel like shoes. Yeah. It didn't feel like a nail was going in the bottom of my foot. So, when? Yeah. Every time I get a pair of shoes that they know that aren't going to be the right shoes, I know immediately when they're going on my feet, oh, these aren't going to work. Yeah. I don't know what the whole, oh, you got to walk five feet. I don't figure out everything. Yeah. This is something you're trained to do as a child.
00:17:59
Speaker
What's it? It's shopping for shoes and beds. Oh, lay down on this mattress and let me know if you like it. I know. Yeah, I've moved past that. I just order bed online. That's what we did this last time. Yeah. Because I got creeped out because we went to the store and the guy was already a little sketchy and he was like, okay, you know, lay down, you know, both of you, you know, lay on the side you normally lay on. I'm like, okay.
00:18:26
Speaker
and lay in bed like you normally would. So I rolled over. He's like, Oh, I got naked. No, he's like, Oh, we're a tummy sleeper. I was like, I'm out. I'm out. Yeah. Yeah. Well, in my wife's world, that is, I'll sleep on all parts of the bed at all times. Does your wife ever build the wall?
00:18:55
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. My wife grabs the covers, rolls, releases, and somehow shimmies without moving them and then grabs and rolls again and then says, you stole all the covers. No, no, madam. You shifted them over to me. We, we've moved past that. We have separate covers now. We're close.
00:19:17
Speaker
We have to. It's, well, first off, it's August and my wife is using like the war, what I consider the warm blanket. What? Yeah. I can't, I don't understand it. Yeah. That's like, there was a crisp in the air and my wife was like, it's almost time for flannel sheets. I was like, the hell it is. No. Flannel sheets are, if the power goes out for three weeks, then we can think about flannel sheets. I can't sleep hot.
00:19:46
Speaker
Yeah, no, no, neither can I. Those times when the AC went out at the station. Oh, my gosh. I I'll just go sleep in ambulance. Yeah. Yeah. It's not it's not worth it. Yeah. Yeah. I will hook an airline up and sleep in the refrigerator. Yeah. Yeah. That or my wife, you know, she's like, oh, she always mess up the bed. And I have taken pictures and shown her like when she goes away on a trip or something like that for work.
00:20:15
Speaker
I get up in the morning. All it is is I folded the sheets back in a perfect triangle. I stand up and I fold them back down. But when she's in the bed, it's chaos because you don't have an Atticus. No, no, no, I've got an Evie who sleeps under the covers. Oh, she refuses to sleep on the covers. She will burrow down every night. And she's a little spoon. It's nice. It's too hot.
00:20:45
Speaker
Well, yeah, that's why I rarely have anything other than a sheet. Yeah, that's right. You look, she's over here. Sit beside me covering her eyes. Shame yourself. Gosh, we even got rid of. We just put the fitted sheet on now. We don't put the other sheet on because it just comes off. It's just a waste. The fitted sheet is such a pain. That's how we can tell like we need to wash the sheets because the fitted sheet will pop off.
00:21:15
Speaker
It's like a timer or something. That's fair. I just watch it once a week. We do like 10 days. Yeah. You know, there's some sort of number. Yeah. Yeah. There's somebody out there listening, going, I haven't washed my sheets in three months. Right. Well, we had that talk at work about towels.
00:21:39
Speaker
to like one of the animals who works on my shift said that, you know, I don't really watch the watch the tales that much. I'm like once a week. What are you talking about? Yeah, yeah. That's only because I have three towels. Let me guess. It was one of those maniacs who tries to justify it by when I get out of shower, I'm clean. Yeah. So I'm just it's just water. So it'll draw it will evaporate. Oh, God.
00:22:05
Speaker
The worst conversation that happened in that conversation where they said this animal says, well, I don't, I don't like scrub my feet. I just let the water with the soap, you know, run around my feet and then they're clean. I'm like, no, you're an animal. Oh God, scrub your feet. Yeah. That's how you get the athletes foot. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Animals.
00:22:37
Speaker
Yeah, they're the person like you go to their house and you go to dry your hands on the hand towel and it's like a Brillo pad. That's how you learn that people are animals. Yeah. Yeah. It's definitely the thing you didn't expect to have to learn about people. Oh, yeah. Yeah. They're all animals. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:23:04
Speaker
Yeah. And the ones you think with it, they're a normal person. Yeah. Everybody's an animal at some point. It's weird. Yeah. And I'm sure I do something that's also get on me all the time for about my shoe routine. My shoe routine. Well, I keep my shoes and socks in the mudroom.
00:23:29
Speaker
OK, don't walk around my house with socks. This is actually bad for feet. And so I put. Sock shoe, sock shoe. I don't put sock, sock, shoe, shoe like a weirdo. Oh, oh, no, I do sock, sock, shoe, shoe. No, no, no, no, sock, shoe, sock, shoe. Oh, you feel so weird. Well, it's perfect. Oh, because then you've got you've got one foot ready for action and the other one totally naked and afraid.
00:24:00
Speaker
Yeah, one foot completely done before I move on to the next foot that will then be completely done. I'm not walking around. First off, walking around your house with shoes on. It's bonkers. And then we have dogs in the house. So we're like, eh, what's the point? Well, that's why my shoes stay downstairs to stay away from the dogs.
00:24:28
Speaker
Yeah. Because the dogs will eat them. Oh, no, no, I'm not talking about that. Our dogs won't eat the shoes. I'm just saying the dogs
Pop Culture References and Movie Series Analysis
00:24:34
Speaker
walk around, you know, they don't. Scrub their feet every time they walk in the door, so. Oh, I've seen the sushi for dogs and I my next dog, I'm training, I'm training to get to have their feet. You put this little like bath mat next or like this little bathtub that they clean their feet in before they come inside. Yeah. Yeah. It's all my list of things to do. Yeah.
00:24:58
Speaker
It's not going to happen with these two. Sock shoe, sock shoe. Yeah. Sock shoe, sock shoe. It makes the most sense. It's just pure science. That is pure science. Yeah. They also got on me because I make my wife pump gas and they said that's ridiculous. Why? That's why so. I'm driving.
00:25:27
Speaker
She can pump the gas. It's a division of labor. Yeah. I'll be damned if I'm going to let some man make me pump gas. That's why you're a sexist. Yeah. And you're not making your wife. Oh, well, I make her. She has no choice in the matter. Oh, gosh. If I'm driving,
00:25:53
Speaker
Especially it happens when the RV, because she doesn't drive the RV. Yeah. So if I'm driving the RV, she's public ass. Yeah. I mean, does she complain about it? No. Exactly. It's part of the division of labor. Yeah. She understands. Yeah. Or she doesn't understand. She's got to explain it to her. Yeah.
00:26:18
Speaker
No, see? Yeah. Yeah. Division of Liberty. Same thing. I have to cut the grass because she won't cut grass. She says it's a man's job. Sexism. It is. It is. I kind of enjoy cutting the grass. I don't mind the cutting of the grass. I hate edging. I see the whole thing because it's you're starting with something ragged and you're trimming it down to make it look nice and neat and uniform. Yeah.
00:26:47
Speaker
My, my trimmer now, the battery is like old and old charge. So I have to get a new, I have to get a new battery, but they don't make that battery anymore. So I have to get a new trimmer. You know, that's my life. Yeah. Yeah. That's what I told my wife. I said, I probably need to get a new trimmer next season. So yeah. Well, I needed one last year and I've been trying to hold off. So this year I got seven eighths of my trimming done today. I'll do the rest later in the week. Yeah, that sucks.
00:27:17
Speaker
Send a woman out there with a pair of scissors. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's my stepping stones. I have to have to turn them all the time. Try that. You should just round up. Well, yeah, I'm real hesitant with the round up because the dogs. Then use, what is it? It's like salt, vinegar, and a little bit of dawn.
00:27:39
Speaker
Yeah, I tried that and never worked. Fire. Fireworks. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So we're close to the house, but you know. He just controlled fire. I saw there was that house in Maui that didn't burn down. Did you see that house? Yeah. There was like one house in that town that didn't burn down. Yeah. And they were saying one of the reasons is that his landscaping was hardscaped with stone around it.
00:28:04
Speaker
which he did it for drainage obviously, but it kept all this, you know, there was no way for this fire to spread. Yeah. Natural firebreak. Right. Yeah. Yeah. I think actually he like sacrificed a goat. That could be too. Well, I don't even think he was there. I think he was saying like he was gone. He wasn't even, he was like on a trip. Oh wow. Yeah.
00:28:28
Speaker
Where do you take a trip from Maui to? I'm assuming like Pittsburgh. Like, let's see, like how normal schlubs have to live. Golly day. Yeah. Lastly, it's around on a map. I'm going to Powellville. Home of a ladder truck. Oh, my gosh, that's so ridiculous. The palace building is 16 feet high. Yep.
00:29:00
Speaker
It's a morale booster. I said, yeah, that's a good, that's a good investment of the tax dollars right there. Well, on the topic one. Rambo. Well, that's topic one. Okay. Yeah. Yes. Topic one. You're supposed to start the whole episode in a Rambo. I tried. I don't have a good Rambo voice.
00:29:26
Speaker
So have you seen the movie Rambo First Blood? Yes. Well, it's not even called Rambo First Blood. It's just called First Blood, I believe. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. And I'm assuming you have then seen Rambo 2. Yeah. Where he goes to Vietnam and then Rambo 3, where he goes to Afghanistan? Is that where it was? I think it's Afghanistan. It was Sandy. It was Sandy. Rambo, for those who haven't watched it,
00:29:53
Speaker
I consider Rambo the First Blood one of the best 80s action movies. It's it's got a great plot. It's relatable for the time period. It's the acting is great. Brian Pennehy is amazing. And it's not over the top, right? No, it's not fully over the top. I mean, there are some ridiculous spots, but there's a little bit, but it's not a whole corduroys cauterizing the wound with the ball. That's in.
00:30:23
Speaker
Rambo 2. Oh, okay. That's the point of this topic. Okay. Because is there any other film series that is so totally different between the first one and the sequels? Because Rambo from Rambo 2 on is just nonsense, you know, action pornography. Oh, yes. It is just violence to get violence. Whereas Rambo 1 is not like that at all.
00:30:54
Speaker
So I was thinking about this because I, again, I was watching first blood and then I was like, man, this movie is so good. And then as soon as you watch Rambo two, you're like, what the hell happened? And I was thinking about Terminator, but Terminator two is so good, but it's still kind of in the theme. Yeah. Doesn't really change. Um, I don't know. A Terminator two.
00:31:21
Speaker
I feel like Terminator one, a lot of it was like the suspense. Like you didn't know, you know, where he was going to pop up. Sure. But I guess too, because you didn't know who he was going to be. Yeah, you had the whole, you know, shape shifter part. Yeah. Terminator one was amazing because like. You really didn't have any idea of what the Terminator was.
00:31:48
Speaker
So he just shows up and shoots up a, you know, a police station. Yeah. That's really the first time you're like, oh, this thing's freaking unsolvable killing machine. Right. Yeah. You know, and then by T2 and beyond, the beyond is the worst. Salvation wasn't horrible. Is that the one with Christian Bale? Sam Worthington.
00:32:14
Speaker
Yeah, this name. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was horrible. It wasn't horrible. I didn't watch the one with what's her face. Amelia Clark. That's the newest one. Yeah. Genesis. Maybe. I don't know. Yeah. I haven't seen it either. What have you seen the last two Rambo movies? No. Rambo and then Last Blood. Yeah.
00:32:43
Speaker
Hey, I really, I don't know that I want to see them. Yeah. Because I really enjoy Rambo as a kid. Yeah. I don't want to see a 70 year old man try to be Rambo. Old John Rambo. Yeah. Yeah. But I was thinking about, I couldn't think of another example where it was just so tonally different between
00:33:12
Speaker
Sequels. Well, the Predator. This is because Predator two is so bad. Yeah, it's real bad. It is Gary Busey. Yeah, Gary Busey and and what's his name? Lover. Yeah, but the. Oh. Bill Paxton. Yes, Bill Pullman.
00:33:38
Speaker
No, no, go buy some of them. But yeah, I mean, it's just a bad movie. Yeah, I killed that franchise because. I don't think they made a standalone Predator movie after that. No, yeah, they've always somehow and well. Well, no, there was predators with Adrian Brody. Is that the one was on Antarctica?
00:34:06
Speaker
No, that's the one where they're like, they get them kidnapped and they drop them on some alien world. Hmm. OK. Yeah, I don't think I saw that one. Yeah, I think I might be sort of vaguely remember it, but then there's like the prior to the alien movie. Yeah, I guess I knew we would pray. I never watched that. I haven't seen it either. I heard it was good, actually. Yeah. I just don't know that I care about action movies anymore. Yeah. Yeah.
00:34:40
Speaker
Die hard three who that's a real totally different than the rest of them. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's true. Yeah, you go from Nakatomi to running around New York City. Yeah, yeah. They are, too, was fine, but they are three is like that hard to is just die hard one in an airport. Yes, which is what you want in a sequel. Yes, yeah.
00:35:08
Speaker
Uh, Ghostbusters two is. Yeah, it was definitely different. It's definitely different. I don't. Caddie check to.
00:35:27
Speaker
That's actually a good point. Can I check too? It's crazy different than. Yeah. Can I check one? Can I check one is definitely like somebody got stoned and gave somebody some money and that person was also stoned and they wrote a movie. Oh yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Can I check to like that movie? Yeah, it's tough. It's a tough one. Yeah. And it's,
00:35:57
Speaker
Gotta be like 10 years difference between the two. Right? At least. Oh yeah. Caddyshack was 1980. Oh, it's good polls. Check their Zune. 88. Yeah. Poor Dan. Poor Dan. What were you doing, Dan? Oh, um,
00:36:26
Speaker
Aliens was a lot different than alien. Oh, that's a fair point Alien is a horror movie aliens is a action sci-fi action movie. Yeah, that's a very good point They're completely different genres Yeah, I think you win that one I mean and I like both the movies, you know, I'm terrified of scary things. Yeah
00:36:58
Speaker
Watched a lot of aliens. Alien was probably I think that was the first like scary movie ever watched. Hmm. I know the first scary movie I ever watched. That was Jaws. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because boy. Jaws was rough for me as a kid. Yeah. I haven't seen them, but I'm seeing a lot of people saying Highlander and Highlander 2.
00:37:28
Speaker
Oh, Highlander two is so heartbreaking. There's like aliens in it or something. Oh my God. Okay. Let's talk about Highlander. When I was a kid, Highlander, the first one was one of my favorite movies. It was amazing. By the way, it doesn't hold up. It's real. It's a real hard watch now, but the whole point of Highlander is that
00:37:58
Speaker
There are these immortals who have to fight until there's only one. At the end of the movie, there's only one of them. And to get the other guy's power, you have to cut his head off. Right. If he cut his head off and then- With your special sword. Well, it doesn't matter which cut his head off. I know, but- But yeah. But at the end of the movie, there's only one of them. Then they're like, we should make a sequel.
00:38:19
Speaker
And now they're all aliens from a different planet and we're getting, they're getting exiled to earth. Oh my God, it was so bad. And then at Highlander three, they scrapped everything that was in Highlander two, but they were like, well, this guy was frozen in the Arctic. Okay. And somehow the quickening didn't know that he was there. Oh, so bad. I remember the Highlander show. That was fun. The Hunter show was good because
00:38:47
Speaker
The premise was it was going on during. But Highlander hadn't happened yet. Yeah. The end of Highlander hadn't happened. Right. Yeah. That was good. Boy, it's a. Real bad pilot or two. Real bad, real bad. Yeah. Well, I mean, that's like after aliens, that franchise just got horrible. It didn't get it just got weird.
00:39:15
Speaker
It's like they didn't know what to do with themselves. Like alien three made no sense. Yeah. Is that the one with one other writer? No, no, no. Three is where she's at the the capsule crash lands on a penal colony. Oh, yeah. And what's his face is dead and there's the dog alien and they all shave their heads and yeah. Yeah.
00:39:46
Speaker
Yeah, it's I think four had Winona Ryder. Sometimes there's all the clone stuff, and they just need to just walk away from things. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Or you had from aliens. I mean, you had it built up that you have these, you know, colonial space marines, you know, send them out, let them do that. You never really see them again. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:40:16
Speaker
until they came back in Starship Troopers. I mean, those are space Nazis, but I know. I haven't seen many of the newer ones, but it the.
00:40:33
Speaker
Tom Cruise, Mission Impossible 1 to Mission Impossible 2 definitely took a twist or, you know, a turn. Hmm. Because the first one was like all about it was like the show is all the spy. Right. Figuring things out. And the second one just seemed much more actiony and I'm running. Yeah. Well, with sweet arms. The man runs like a maniac. He does run like a maniac.
00:40:54
Speaker
Yeah. I saw some article where they talked about the amount of runtime of Tom Drew's running in a movie has a direct correlation for how much money that movie makes. So if he doesn't do any running, that movie doesn't make any money. I could see that. Yeah. Yeah. Bremlins to Gremlins 2. Oh my God. Good call. Gremlins 2 is such a maniac movie. What the hell was going on there? That was way too many drugs in the 80s.
00:41:24
Speaker
We had the weird sexy gremlin. Yeah. And the one that could talk. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And then some, I guess every time there has to be a spike and. Right. Yeah. Yeah. And somehow the poor neighbors were involved again. Yeah. Yeah. Don't feed them after midnight. Don't feed them after midnight. It seems like something we should know.
00:41:54
Speaker
But again, when does that stop? Dawn, I don't know. Yeah, that's the weird thing. Yeah. It's very loosey goosey. And who's midnight? Yeah. Yeah. What if I'm on or what if you're on one of those, you know, like the line of the time change? Well, they come from China, right? Yeah. So is it the Chinese midnight? Yeah. They don't know. See, these are loopholes. People fix them. Yeah.
00:42:24
Speaker
Yeah, the whole don't get them wet. OK, that's yeah, that's a universal rule. Makes sense. That's why, you know, certain people don't wash their towels. That's fair. Hmm. I haven't watched a ton of them, but my wife watches the Fast and Nefarious movies, and I think there's a huge change from the first one to the last one.
00:42:51
Speaker
Oh, I couldn't tell you. I think that. Well, the first one. Well, Fast and Furious was all about like street racing and stuff in the beginning. And now it's like the rock and there's tanks and all kinds of things. I honestly haven't watched. A Fast and Furious movie since. Maybe the second one. OK. Did you watch Tokyo Drift? No.
Changing Sensitivities and Emotional Reflections
00:43:16
Speaker
You should watch that. Yeah, it's a bad plot. It's the story's horrible. The main actor, they they're I guess they were like, could you sound like the biggest hick possible? You know, OK, I will. You really saw me on this movie. Yeah. Well, I was the driving at all. It's really neat. So. Fair, but yeah.
00:43:39
Speaker
Yeah. Right. I haven't watched one of those. It's the same thing. Mission impossible. I've like watched parts of one of them. Yeah. I watched the first one. Yeah. I like the first one. I like the first one a lot. Yeah. I remember there was the chewing gum that you touched together and it blew up. Yeah. And I had a mini mess with it for a brief, brief minute. Brief, brief minute. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There was one of them. What was it? Oh, God.
00:44:08
Speaker
I can't remember the actor's name. He died a few years ago. Oh, I can't think of his name. Actors. Oh, not musical.
00:44:36
Speaker
And this pause brought to you by the letter Z for soon. Philip Seymour Hoffman. Oh yeah. The Mission Impossible that had him. I, I'm pretty sure I watched the whole movie multiple times, but it was one of the times I was in the hospital with my gut. So I was on all kinds of painkillers and I just vaguely remember seeing parts of it. So.
00:45:05
Speaker
Yeah, I've never seen it. I've seen parts of it. Yeah. Yeah. Superman to Superman 2? Which one's Superman 2? That's the one where he hits the earth and makes it spin backwards and all that thing. Oh, okay. To be fair, none of the
00:45:32
Speaker
None of the Superman movies are that great. No, no, they're not. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, what? Sorry. Stracted by an email from work. Why are you seeing emails from work? It's popped on my phone. No. I saw those alerts on. It's happy to see the title. Yeah.
00:45:58
Speaker
Superman two. Well, there's also that really bad Superman where there's the sun alien thing. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And he takes them to the moon because there's no light on the moon. It was. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Those movies aren't that great. They don't hold up. No. Yeah. No. Yeah. Yeah. Actually, movies, most of them should probably just stick to one. Yeah.
00:46:27
Speaker
What is it? There's like 18 expendable movies now or something. Oh, yeah, that. Honestly, after the first one, that was just that was like, you know, a bunch of teenagers. Hey, what if we throw all these action figures together? Right. That's all it was, which was fine for the first one. Mm hmm. Didn't have to do any further. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So we had to go for that.
00:46:56
Speaker
Well, I think that's a good discussion of sequels that screwed up their franchise. Yeah. If you didn't give us a Rambo impression yet, so I don't have a. It always turns into a rocky impression. Yeah. Well, it's the same. It is. It's poor Sly. Poor Sly. Hmm. Well, topic two. Topic two. So I was going to go like super serious, but
00:47:26
Speaker
I can't do that because I'm serious. No, no, no, no, no. OK. Have you found that you are more. Sensitive or feeling the older you get. Because I I mean, I grew up a shorebilly.
00:47:49
Speaker
And I would go hunting and stuff like that. And now the thought of that just I don't like it. And last night there was a free game on PlayStation. It's called Ending or something like that. And it was the story of this fox and its cubs. I was like, oh, this looks adorable. It's an indie game. And I was like, OK, and pick your cubs. So I picked the cub. Yeah, you know what happens when you pick the cub? So my kidnaps it.
00:48:13
Speaker
God and then the whole game you're trying to find the cub you're finding it's sent and everything and at the end spoilers they kill the mom off That's how it ends she gets shot and the little cubs like curl around her and her whimpering and it says Extinction is inevitable or something like that It's supposed to be a whole talk on like global warming and why we shouldn't mess with animals and stuff I was like you bastards. I
00:48:39
Speaker
I went through this whole game. I was in tears last night because this stupid game. I was like, I would like I found the other cub. They're all for back. Things are happy. And no, that's what you do. Screw. I can't remember the developer of the game, but screw you. That's fair. But yeah, it's just I don't know. It's stuff like that that gets to me now. I'm just.
00:49:03
Speaker
Well, you know, part of the reason I'm a vegetarian is because of, I feel more sympathy for animals than I do for people. Yeah. I mean, that's fair. Yeah. I did, uh, try to connect to a human being the other day at work and, uh, I think I got through to them. I mean, does that.
00:49:24
Speaker
Is that like an HR thing? Do we need to? Well, I didn't work for the city. So, you know, but I, you know, want to try to go above the on to help this homeless person. Yeah. And I was thinking like. Twenty five year old me who was. Let's say 30 year old me. Yeah. Who was at that point a little disillusioned with EMS would never have taken the time to even talk to that dude. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I keep. Well, my whole family does, but.
00:49:53
Speaker
Yeah, we keep homeless bags in our cars. Mm hmm. Yep. Yeah. And of course, we have my kids. I don't want them like, you know, going up to the crazy person. I said, just toss it out your window. I mean, say something. Don't just chuck it at the person. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think you just.
00:50:17
Speaker
As you get older, or I hope as you get older, you realize, you know, you should try to do better in the world. I don't know if it's a whole like life is precious thing or. Well, yeah, sure. I mean, look, I'll admit it. When we left for the trip, I, I was tearing up as I left because I was leaving my dog for a week. Oh, you didn't take your dog. No, we didn't take the dogs.
00:50:47
Speaker
Oh. Yeah, I know. My brother was here. They had a delightful week, but yeah, it was, yeah. That's part of the reason we got the RV is so that we take our dogs with us. I need to talk to the wife. See, solve the problem. I don't think it should become more sense of anything. You just become more aware of your feelings. Okay. It also takes you, think about,
00:51:16
Speaker
This is a very man centric conversation. That's don't come after me. Internet. Yeah. But all of the shit you grow up at, like, I have to be like John Wayne. I have to keep things, you know, and that takes a lifetime to deprogram that crap out of your brain. Yeah. You know, hopefully other generations will be better than we are. Hopefully because, you know, I mean, like there is
00:51:46
Speaker
There was a movie that came on or something. It wasn't it was like that time period of like Rambo and all that. I can't remember what it was. And I was like, why is there so much gore? I never would have said that as a, you know, 20 something year old. Yeah, but I think it's part of the natural process of being old men. God, I did. Yeah, I just don't know. It has something to do with our our testosterone levels leveling out. Maybe.
00:52:14
Speaker
I don't know if that's the case. Maybe more people need their testosterone lowered because. Would help things. Yeah, I think it might. Yeah. Yeah. I think. Yeah, I mean, don't get me wrong. I mean, I can get my anger up and, you know, be, you know, I can go cut down a tree or do whatever I got it. I feel like my anger is always pointed towards injustice now. Oh, yeah. I'm I'm never.
00:52:45
Speaker
I like if I'm in the car and I'm angry, it's because these people are screwing everybody over. It's not just that they're an asshole. Oh, yeah. Usually Maryland. Yeah. But it's just that they are screwing everybody over. The reason all of that. And I know that that the people driving like that are eventually going to cause an accident that's going to cause somebody bodily harm. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Yeah. Do I wish that they would magic, you know, immediately crap their pants? Absolutely.
00:53:15
Speaker
Because I bet they'd stop. Yeah, it's fair. But I feel like that's where my anger comes. It's more about injustice and the impotence of being unable to fix that problem. Yeah. That's why I want a harpoon gun so I can tell that person quickly, hey, don't do that. I would have used one on the ride back the other day. Did you come back 70? Well, that's another thing.
00:53:45
Speaker
So I noticed that about the, you know, I guess me being sensitive or whatever, like, I think it's more like acclimation, but like I'll drive on the bypass and do like 72, no problem. 70s speed limit 70. I hated it. I hated it. I think it's because I don't know the roads. The well, but it's a literal straight road. I know, but still it's no, it's not. There's some turns and up and downs, but.
00:54:10
Speaker
There's ups and downs. Definitely not up and downs. Yeah. But no, it was we were coming into Annapolis and I was like, you know what? It's 1130. The bridge is going to be insane. Probably. I'm you know, let's stop and grab somebody. So my youngest and I in the car together because we took two cars to pick my nieces up on the way. So we're about to stop. And. I know that this exit is just a little turnaround exit goes dumps right onto a street, but there's a dedicated lane you can run right through.
00:54:38
Speaker
So we're going and all of a sudden the guy in front of me just locks his brakes up and I'm like, oh, shit. So I lock my brakes up and squirt to the side. Yeah, there's this jack and ape in front that's like covering two and a half lanes now because he decided at the last minute he wanted to switch over and it's flipping another guy off. He's trying to do the opposite thing. And it's like both of you warping gun between you both.
00:55:05
Speaker
Well, the Bay Bridge is I think it's purpose built to make you angry. Well, it used to not be that bad, but I don't know what Westmore has done. But Wes, get it together. Well, I think he's trying to fight the we need another bridge fight. Yeah, this whole like, oh, well, you know, anytime you go from four lanes to two back to three and then three to four to one, it's just madness. Yeah. Yeah, that's fair. It's OK.
00:55:35
Speaker
My favorite Maryland thing is we have all this traffic at the Bay Bridge. What's our solution? Another bridge directly next to the bay. Yeah. Oh yeah. Not anywhere else on the shore. Yeah. There. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's a perfect Maryland thing. That bridge is terrifying enough. Yeah. Oncoming traffic into it. No, thank you, sir. Not a big fan of that bridge. No.
00:56:06
Speaker
But back to the sensitivity. I think it's the natural, I think it's the healthy evolution of being a person.
00:56:20
Speaker
I think the opposite is the worst way to go. The hardening and jadedness. I mean, I see these people who just have no empathy for their fellow man. Yeah. And I'm like, what is your life going to be like 10 years from now? Yeah. You have no empathy now. Yeah. It's just going to get worse. You're going to be a bitter old man. Right. You're just going to be a bitter old person who can't talk to anybody. Yeah. Yeah. And I hate to say it, but
00:56:49
Speaker
you're going to be that person that your family shoves in a home and never comes and visits. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. I mean, like the other day at work, there's somebody telling me a story of what's going on in their life. And I was just like, I just want to give you a hug. I don't know what else to do. Right. Yeah. Sometimes that's the worst part is the
00:57:13
Speaker
having feelings going, I don't have a solution to these problems. That totally is the biggest problem for my side. I wish I could be like, oh, I have, index card 13A, I say this thing and you'll be fine. Exactly. I don't have that. I don't
Empathy and Societal Expectations
00:57:33
Speaker
think anybody does, hopefully. No. That's a whole other thing when the people are like, oh, just have faith.
00:57:41
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You can have your face. Yeah. And that's fine. Look, you do you on that, but no. I got some questions about that. That was going to be the topic. Oh, well, that's a happy topic. Yeah, it is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Side tangent. Okay. Good. No, no, go ahead. No, go ahead. Side tangent. Go ahead. Oh, yeah.
00:58:09
Speaker
They've been asking numerous folks from ages. We'll go all the way down to eight to 67. About. Do you think there should be dress codes for certain events like funerals? Exactly. And even the eight year old when I, you know, ask you should wear a nice dress or a tie. Eight years old. Yeah.
00:58:37
Speaker
And when I described some of the things you described, the look of just like on her face. Good. Yeah. Someone's raising that child correctly. For that part, at least. Yeah. Yeah. It was just like, what? No, no. Yeah. Oh, again, unless the person puts like a little caveat, you know, hey, show up in a Hawaiian shirt. Fine. Right.
00:59:04
Speaker
Yeah, but yeah, just animals animals. Yeah. Yeah. That was boy. That was an uncomfortable event for somebody who, you know, I don't know about any of the answers. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Gosh. Yeah. My mother's like, you really need to reach out to your cousin. He's having a tough time. I'm like, what am I going to say to him? Yeah. I don't have a. Am I not allowed to have a tough time? Well, you know, you're sensitive brother. You get a.
00:59:32
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. It's just like, well, he's just taking him out somewhere. I'm like, I only really know to take people out to a bar. He's not allowed to drink right now because he's an alcoholic. You want to go to a soda fountain? Let's go down to the malt shop. Right. Oh my gosh. Pass. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, you want to grab some French fries? Right. Yeah.
01:00:02
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Penn Gillette has a really great philosophical view on that that I don't have yet. He's like, his statement is, you should just be able to go out with friends to a park. I just would never do that. Yeah. Like, I always go to my friends to do something. Right. Right. Like,
01:00:25
Speaker
I see my friends to go play disc golf. Yeah. Playing disc golf, but we're doing something while we're there. Yeah. We never just go to like sit in a park. Right. Be weird. I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm just saying it would be, it would be hard for me. Yeah. I mean, you sit and, I mean, we've sat and talked for, you know, hours. Yeah. We're trapped together like rats. Yeah. Yeah. Put it at the park, then you add fresh air.
01:00:54
Speaker
That's a nature and nature. Chipmunks. Yeah. Geese. Oh, geese. There's an animal that I don't have a lot of sympathy for. I have no sympathy for goose. Nope. Nope. They're mean. They are mean. They crap everywhere. Yeah. That's what I don't understand. One. Everybody wants to feed the homeless. Kill the geese. Feed the homeless.
01:01:21
Speaker
Yeah. You heard of Christmas goose, right? What do you think those things are? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And you're not allowed to kill the. Oh my God. Non-recritorial ones, right? Oh yeah. Yeah. You can't kill the resident or whatever. Yeah. What do you say? Yeah. Hey, goose, if it goes honk, eh? It's, you know, Margaret? No. Yeah.
01:01:48
Speaker
Foreign goose, get it. Yeah, there's no way by looking at it. No, it's not as different plumage or anything. It's got a big Maryland flag and plays on its wing. It's a tattoo of the Maryland flag on its neck. Well, it's got the black and yellow. Yep, that there's a Maryland goose. Yeah, but it's the blacks in the wrong corner. So it's it's not it's an imposter. Oh.
01:02:17
Speaker
You're in your stupid state flag. It's not that hard. Black in the upper left corner. Done. It is hard. No, it's not. It is. No, you have to intentionally be an idiot to mess it up. People from Maryland say, oh, it's not hard. Everybody else goes, your flag just looks like crayons threw up on it. What's going on over here? But the problem is there are so many people that are from Maryland who put their flag up and it's upside down. It's like,
01:02:47
Speaker
Red and white is never in the top corner. Never. That's why the other one's nice because the letters go up one way. Yeah. And you got your two farmers on there. It's a farmer and a merchant. Oh, cool. I'm sorry. Representing the two sides of Delaware, the farm and the merchant tile. Our chicken farms and our screen door factories. We used to be the peach growing capital of the United States. Thank you very much.
01:03:15
Speaker
Yeah, because everybody's. Yeah. When I think Delaware, I think Peaches. Oh, you used to. I did not. I think nylon. Sure. It'll grow those. It'll grow nylon. There's not. Oh, look, I'm on my fields of nylon. Or the crazy DuPont family. Uh, yeah, they had to trap those monsters inside. That's. Sadly true. I know.
01:03:44
Speaker
None of them are really called DuPont anymore. That's the real truth of the DuPont family. Yeah. All the DuPonts are all gone. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, do you think there's still Rockefellers out there? Yes. Yeah. 100%. Okay. There's still Addamses, like John Addams and stuff. Yeah. We used to work with a John Addams. It's a different family, but there are still
01:04:16
Speaker
Adams's. I would assume there's a Rockefeller or two. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, there's still Kennedys. Yeah. You'll never get rid of the Kennedys. Those Bongers family. Yeah. That's what kills me. It's those seven degrees of separation. It's like, you know. Oh yeah. They're a Kennedy five times removed. It's like, what? Yeah. I've only ever met a DuPont who wasn't a DuPont.
01:04:42
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. I spilled hot soup on her fur coat. Ooh. Wasn't that good? Yeah. Looking back, was this a conscious thing that you're like, yeah. No, no, no. Because I was scared to death. Didn't know she was a DuPont until afterwards. Did she have you flogged? Yeah. She was like, do you know who I am? I'm like, oh, God. Governor's calling me. Got a special prison for you out for Delaware.
01:05:13
Speaker
Do you know who I am? No, I don't. Yeah. Everybody else knew who she was. I was the only one didn't. Hola, senorita. Como estas? Me amo Pablo. Me amo Rob Quillen. Rob Quillen. Gerald Brinson. Oh, gosh. One time I told a state trooper, my name was Gerald Brinson.
01:05:44
Speaker
Who was the Nazi paramedic? I was. What's your name? Gerald Brinson. Oh, that's great. Yeah. Yeah. He didn't find it as funny as I did. No, I'm probably not. Weirdly. Yeah. Well, he doesn't have a sense of humor. It's a trooper. Yeah. None of them do. Yeah.
01:06:13
Speaker
Just something to go by, though, not. Let's say I've got the state trooper that lives next to me, and I guess he's on late duty because he was he's OK, but he was hit by it head on at work by a drunk driver. He messed up his wrist. But they've always worked out a lot, but he has like all his old state trooper buddies over. He's got like quite the gym in his garage. Well, I think they're getting ready for an Iron Man. They're carrying like medicine balls like down the driveway out and then back.
01:06:45
Speaker
Well, you know, the enemy and look, I want our police to be physically fit and everything, but still don't. That's funny. My buddy, he's a state trooper. His gym in his garage is pretty impressive as well. You know what that means? We're paying state troopers too much. Yeah. It took you this long to figure that out. He's got a two car garage. Yeah. I don't even have a garage.
01:07:13
Speaker
You got a Comcast line in the way. Yeah, I got a Comcast line blocking my driveway. Well, I think we've reached the end of another weird podcast. We do a little weird, but you know. It's good for us every now and again. It's good for our souls. Yeah, yeah.
01:07:36
Speaker
Some of us have to go to bed and in like 30 minutes. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I'll see you tomorrow sometime. I'm sure. Yeah. Yeah. Well, we'll be up. We'll be the ones running calls. Yeah. Like the boys 16 to their maniacs. Well folks enjoy the last messages of summer. Yeah. Yeah. We got a whole nother three weeks after this a summer. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But, uh, yeah.
01:08:05
