00:00:27
Speaker
Welcome to the Garage Avenger podcast, people. I'm Justin, trying to share the joy of building my death machines in a hope of one day making a living off it. And I'm Kieran, trying to turn my garage sweaty socks into a world-renowned bureau.
00:00:45
Speaker
but ah
00:00:50
Speaker
I meant to put garage brood sweaty socks. and ah ah yeah but I apologize for that one. There wasn't much thought in that one. Completely not.
Garage Activities Preview
00:01:05
Speaker
We are twin brothers with a passion for creating the wild and ah unexpected. And every week we try to take you on an everyday sort of life of what's going on in our garages.
00:01:18
Speaker
So, Kieran. What's been happening in your garage of late? ah Not bloody much. I've been filling it with with wine. and Let's go, Garen.
00:01:30
Speaker
Filling it with wine and misfills from work. That's what I've been doing. so um yeah, there's not a lot happening in the garage really at all this last week.
00:01:45
Speaker
um Yeah, I got my samples of wine ah the other day, and so got a couple of cases of this wine to go and do sales and all that kind of stuff with.
00:01:58
Speaker
So there's a few few cases of wine and then butt-ton of misfills from the from the almonds and canning wine as well. ah So a couple cases of beer there. Yeah.
00:02:12
Speaker
But other than that, not much has been happening in the garage. It's been pretty, you know, say i've ah i've had no ah I've had no time to brew between like work and family and work and family and sleeping.
00:02:29
Speaker
I mean, who needs sleeping really? You know, but it's been it's been tough to find time this week. Really, you haven't had any time to do anything in there.
Wine Talk: Haps Winery Discussion
00:02:44
Speaker
but why So you which wines have you – we've talked roughly about what they are, and and so what's what's the go with the wines?
00:02:53
Speaker
Well, i've got to yeah I've mentioned before three wines. a but All three are from the same brewery. Winery, you mean? Sorry. Yeah.
00:03:04
Speaker
ah Same winery, yeah. um It's ah called Haps out of Margaret River in Western Australia, which is our mother's hometown, if you didn't know.
00:03:16
Speaker
And, the yeah, I've got a white wine, which is like a style called a Châtien Blanc, very like light, fruity, semi-dry, semi-sweet kind of white wine.
00:03:30
Speaker
And then you've got the fuchsia, which is a rosé, which is really sweet and fruity and kind of like strawberry daiquiri in a glass. And then you've got ah the pinoy, which is a really nice...
00:03:47
Speaker
super easy day is like an everyday red wine, if you will. Um, it's not the kind of wine that's like a super high end special, it's you know, tasting experience in my opinion, but, uh, it's a really like a, an, an everyday super real, like fresh, easy, nice Pinot while style, uh, wine.
00:04:14
Speaker
So those are the three wines. And how are we going to be selling these bad boys, Kieran? There will obviously be some at the Wine Monopoly. So the May Stealing Zoot Volk, you'll be able to buy them online and in other, obviously, some shops and stuff will pick them up as well.
00:04:37
Speaker
So we'll do that. and And then, of course, I'm going to be selling it to bars and restaurants as well. So what's the what's the approach for the bars and restaurants? who Who's going to be the privileged bars and restaurants to get this wine?
00:04:52
Speaker
i To be honest, I'm starting local with this stuff. So a lot of people in the Drummond area, ah people I know and things like that. um The main focus will just be to provide wines that nobody gets anywhere else because the the market here in Norway is oversaturated with Italian and French wine and you just don't don't get enough variants of wines from other places at in bars and restaurants.
00:05:23
Speaker
And the consumer is starting to cotton onto that now.
Australian Wines in Norway
00:05:26
Speaker
They're starting to get a bit bored with, you know, same old Italian and French wines. So there's, a things are moving in a positive direction for Australian wines worldwide, I think, ah but definitely in Norway as well. So um I'm really positive about that they'll sell well.
00:05:46
Speaker
I think um they'll be picked up really well by the, wine monopoly as well because they really don't have much australian wine in their assortment and i think that would be a ah really great addition to their product range awesome well i mean talking about drinking wine well what what are you drinking today should we do the intro yeah sure
00:06:13
Speaker
Oh, what is the malt liquor? What gets you drunker quicker? What comes in bottles or in cans? Beer! Can't get enough of it. Beer! How we really love it. Beer! Makes me think I'm a man. could kiss and hug it. Beer! I'd rather chug it. Beer! Top my belly after here.
00:06:24
Speaker
I could not refuse a beer. Beer! could really use a beer. Beer! Beer! Beer!
Exploring Beers and Brewing Challenges
00:06:30
Speaker
what have you got today karen well today i put in the in the can is ink and daga from amundsonbury Is this a misfill?
00:06:42
Speaker
It is, actually. So it's a misfill, but it's still good. It's still good. um Yeah, it's like a modern-day IPA, I guess you they call it.
00:06:57
Speaker
More of a West Coast-style, bitter-style IPA, but very light and clean. In the glass, you can see there. I've had it open for little while waiting for you to come online. So I've been pre-gaming a little bit here.
00:07:14
Speaker
There's been a drama a bit of drama in my house, which I'll get to at the end of the podcast. But yeah. well What I'm drinking today is a bit of Snöbeljuice.
00:07:26
Speaker
Snöbeljuice. Snöbeljuice from Denmark. It's actually a pretty good beer. like that one. um I can't remember having it. I've tried it before, but I can't remember it.
00:07:36
Speaker
So it's a session ipa Yeah, like a hazy style IPA, yeah. Yeah, it smells super fruity straight off a can opening. Super apricot-y sort of color to it.
00:07:51
Speaker
don't remember it being that color. You know, it's probably out of date because I don't drink beer. It's probably not, actually. it's Let's give it a taste, eh?
00:08:09
Speaker
Ah, it's pretty good. Good. Yeah, it's ah it's a nice beer. Yeah. Yeah. um I just spilled beer on my keyboard. I'm like, oh, God, what's going to happen now? The whole podcast is going to shut down.
00:08:23
Speaker
it's like that It's like in the episode of The Simpsons where Homer goes to the space in the ant farm. like and breaks and goes into all the circuits.
00:08:35
Speaker
ah So, yeah. um Nice, easy drinking session IPA. Feels like every second beer we have on this show is a session IPA. and Let's be honest, though. like It sells. It's still selling. It's still probably outside of lager.
00:08:53
Speaker
It'd be the second most popular style of beer in the world, I think. I mean, it still yes stilll sells well everywhere. so mean ah ah so I did I mention last week that it sold out of cryo juices?
00:09:10
Speaker
ah No, I don't think you mentioned. You said you were running low. Yeah. So it's it's all gone. It's all gone.
00:09:22
Speaker
I've got a couple of kegs left, I'll be honest. But i don't it's all gone. Otherwise, it's all sold out. the Whatever's at the Wine Monopoly stores now is all that's left.
00:09:33
Speaker
So... Yeah, I'm pretty, pretty happy with that. I even got some, a few emails from random people who are looking to get it. and wanted to know where they could get it and when they would be available again.
00:09:46
Speaker
So that's a really positive sign. So I think it's it's consistently rating higher and higher on Untappd in the few last few weeks.
00:09:56
Speaker
So there's people, it's kind of coming to its own, I think. So kind of cool. And I've also got some really good feedback on the new version of Cosmic Christ.
00:10:08
Speaker
That's... um It's going really well. um all All the cans went out to stores this week. Great. I haven't actually got a chance to go grab a can yet.
00:10:19
Speaker
Yeah, it's ah it's good really good. um The feedback has been really positive. ah I even gave a ah couple cans to the boys at work and just to try. And like one of the – John, he was – ah super impressed actually so it was really nice to to have that feedback from someone who you know as a profession makes beer every day not that i don't but it's just someone who's been doing it for the last 20 years um to have his feedback to say it was a fantastic beer and a fantastic example of something that
00:10:58
Speaker
drinks heavier than what it is. Like it's a 4.7, the drinks like a six or eight percenter. So i have to say this beer here, the Snabel juice, ah this feels very similar.
00:11:15
Speaker
it's It's drinks a lot heavier and thicker than 4.5, which is what it is. e Exactly. So I think ah those kind of things are really positive and I'm really looking forward to seeing where things go with the with the future products. I think the biggest thing right now is I'm a little bit undecided on what to brew next commercially and where to go. and told last week they kind of put a pause on Holy Ghost and trying to figure out what the next thing there is. So disappointed, by the way.
00:11:53
Speaker
I know, i know. But until I can guarantee that the production method is going to hit the mark, there's no there's no point in doing it, to be honest. It's just too much of a risk.
00:12:07
Speaker
It's too much of a i When you know how good the product can be, to have it like screwed up is just the most devastating thing I can think of.
00:12:19
Speaker
Can you explain to me what the real issue is? like Why can't you just get all the cans that you're going to be filling up and dose them with a drop of the the fluid before you put them in the machine and then it fills them up?
00:12:34
Speaker
ah The issue there is it's not my brewery.
00:12:40
Speaker
Yeah. Plain and simple. Can't you convince somebody? Just like give them an rubber tug behind the fermenter or something. I'm sure i'm sure ah yeah sure someone might be privy to such a thing, but I don't know. it's it's I know the people would be very happy that you took one for the team, Kieran.
00:13:05
Speaker
I know that like Pierre would be like, come on, Kieran, do behind the fermenter.
00:13:12
Speaker
Just get it done. Get those beers out.
00:13:17
Speaker
Well, you know, we'll we'll see. We'll see what happens in the coming months and weeks. and And maybe maybe i can – the biggest issue is the blending of the of the chili into the beer. That's the biggest issue.
00:13:35
Speaker
can you Can you brew it at home e and then give this brewer a can of it? And once he tastes it, he'll understand why you have to do something different.
00:13:47
Speaker
And say, like, this is how it's supposed to taste. And if he doesn't like it, screw him. He's a dickhead, right? Obviously. But I guarantee you he's going to be like, wow, okay, I want to be part of this.
00:14:00
Speaker
Then maybe he'll make that work for you. Like maybe he'll be like, you know what, I'll do that for you. we'll We'll screw up my canning line. Yeah, the interesting thing, Joss, is that, he you know, he he gave me the misfills of Cosmic, and which didn't go to the warehouse.
00:14:21
Speaker
And like the way he was talking about the beer was he was actually quite impressed with the way it had turned out. So like, as in like, he was like, Ooh, Ooh, maybe I should look at doing something a little bit different in my own setup now because of how that beer turned out.
00:14:43
Speaker
So can you explain what you did it a little different to what he would normally do? In this case, like I chose, it's a 4.7% beer. Um, the biggest issue with 4.7% beers is the profit margins in those beers are so slim.
00:15:01
Speaker
that you try and cut costs wherever you can. And a lot of that is to like, well, if I'm going to do a 4.7% beer, you're just trying to hit alcohol.
00:15:14
Speaker
So if you can get, if you can mash at a lower temperature and hit your alcohol target at a lower temperature, you sacrifice all the body and the mouthfeel of the beer. ah But you get the alcohol out that you want.
00:15:27
Speaker
So ring often what will happen is that they'll just they'll use less malt and mash at a lower temperature. and so they have a more efficient mash to save money.
00:15:39
Speaker
Whereas mine's just throwing that out the window. Yeah. I'm just like, well, I'm mashing at 72 I'm just like going hard for full dexterous, like big bodied style beer, throwing any efficiency out the window and just and because the purpose a big beer, you know.
00:16:04
Speaker
And then you support it by a little bit of maltodextrin and some lactose and in your you're sitting in this really nice thick, creamy, like pillowy style...
00:16:21
Speaker
like body on the beer that's super like clean, but also full and delicious and creamy and sweet. ah So there's like a nice balance there really.
00:16:34
Speaker
So there's, it's kind of like throwing the ideas of making a cheap 4.7 beer out the window and making basically what would it be a 8% deeper, like double IPA has a 4.7.
00:16:52
Speaker
So it's got like 10, it uses 10 grams per liter dry hop as well. So it's not a cheap beer to make at all. Um, So, you know, like in a five kilo bag of hops is costing me 4,000 crowns roughly, and I'm putting 10 kilos, so two bags in into a into a beer. You know, that's like 8,000 crowns just in dry hopping alone, let alone to that double that amount ah going into the whirlpool as well.
00:17:26
Speaker
So it's ah it's a lot of money in hops. ah Which means basically I don't earn any money on this beer because selling it at a reasonable price price point in order for people to try it is, ah is so you know, because, you you know, like if it sits on the shelf too long, it's just wasted.
00:17:46
Speaker
So the way I consider it now is is basically a marketing expense. Yeah, I think you have to see it like that because otherwise you'd probably cry. Yeah, exactly, right? and No business makes profit in the first year, let's be honest. like You have to build brand. You have to get people to know you exist, right?
00:18:07
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, it's pretty it's pretty nice though.
Community Engagement and Brewing
00:18:10
Speaker
I mean, you got like I got an email this week by some random guy in Stavanger who was like, I want to come check out your brewery. Sounds like you're doing some cool stuff.
00:18:22
Speaker
And I'm just like, awesome. Thanks, man. That's like so cool that you're interested. I mean, I don't have a brewery, but it's so cool that he would even say use the time to send an email. That's that's the other thing.
00:18:39
Speaker
So that's fantastic. Yeah. o Anyway, what's on with you, Joss? How's the garage doing this week?
00:18:49
Speaker
I've been feeling again, unfortunately, at least on Monday, I was definitely feeling like these big failure feelings again. you know like we talked about it last week, and they sort of continued a little bit into this week.
Garage Projects and Technical Struggles
00:19:06
Speaker
had you know The truth is that you know i told you guys last week I had problems with the brakes on the World Rally car.
00:19:16
Speaker
And then, of course, the snowmobile video, absolutely bombed and did horribly. And yeah, so on Monday, i edited this podcast and then I ah worked on the brakes.
00:19:32
Speaker
Now, I wasn't sure what the problem was with the brakes. So I decided I was going to three d print this kind of lid for the reservoir and then have this long tube with a big bottle of fluid.
00:19:46
Speaker
So there would be no chance you could get air in it. e And I wanted to see what would happen. And and just every time I bled it, it came more and more air.
00:19:56
Speaker
i was like, where is this air coming from? And I just, I realized like, ah I don't know what I'm doing with this stuff. I don't know. Like I couldn't understand what was going on.
00:20:09
Speaker
And so I felt very much like a failure on Monday and Tuesday. think it was on Tuesday, you know, I spoke with Kristen in the middle of like the day and she she said to me, she's like, you have, you got this, you know, you you you've, you've,
00:20:30
Speaker
You know what you're doing. I believe in you. and I was like, I needed that right now. Like I needed to hear this because like no one else has got me. Yeah. Do you know what mean? There's like, I feel so lucky to have Kristen in my life because if I could have a wife that was like, didn't believe in what I was doing.
00:20:52
Speaker
Yeah. I mean like, look at my silly man. Yeah. making these silly projects, spending all our money, you know, and like hes he's a dreamer, wasn't to get a real job, you know, like, and I know that that's what her girlfriends are saying to her.
00:21:06
Speaker
I also know that that's what a lot of people around the neighborhood are saying. they don't understand why I would do what I'm doing. Yeah. And it's really hard to like face like a day like Monday and Tuesday where I got failure, failure, failure in front of me and knowing that these like, these people and these and opinions exist without me like, you know, just realizing that,
00:21:39
Speaker
I'm not a failure. I've just got to keep on going. I just have to keep on doing this. i mean that I mean, definitely my wife does not have a TV blaring in the background whilst I'm trying to record a podcast. I was trying to shield the microphone. Lynn's watching Adolescence.
00:22:02
Speaker
Oh, yeah. there's an ah So she's like she's fully into it. I couldn't even tell her to switch it off whilst we record the podcast.
00:22:15
Speaker
I don't blame her, though. It's pretty epic. It's an awesome, awesome series. ah it's it's One might say it's... Mind-blowing, Kieran.
00:22:25
Speaker
um Do tell me, Justin. ah Shall we just do it now i and I'll finish for my week? Yeah, okay, right. tried but You know what's mind-blowing, Kieran? Tell me, Justin, what's mind-blowing?
00:22:39
Speaker
The show Adolescents on Netflix.
00:22:46
Speaker
Mind-blown.
00:22:50
Speaker
Now, Lynn may be watching it right now, but I guarantee you she's not looking at it the way I'm looking at it. why What makes you say that? Like, I am blown away about the camera work.
00:23:03
Speaker
No, it's one of the first things she mentioned. ah Really? Yeah. Because it is like, they do this one whole episode in one take.
00:23:15
Speaker
Yeah, it's crazy, isn't it? It's insane. And the stress of the cameraman to keep the shot. Oh, my God. Could you imagine that pressure? And then on top of that.
00:23:28
Speaker
ah On top of that, you've got like the actors that can't get a line wrong and have to fit everything in and time everything. So as they go in and out of the scenes, you know, they have the time coming back in the scene with the camera moving and stuff like that. It's just mind-blowing how they filmed this.
00:23:52
Speaker
Now, this is not the first series or movie they're done with this. Like 1917 was done in a similar way, and that was an amazing film. Did you ever see that, Kieran? Yeah, yeah. was a great film.
00:24:03
Speaker
Oh, fantastic. And I just thought, like this is kind of monumental in like TV series. this is I don't think this has ever been done like this. o I don't think I've seen it. I'm sure it probably has somewhere in the world, but it's it's the first time it's really come to my attention.
00:24:22
Speaker
he And the the acting, like the the boy. yeah Like the see the the episode where he's with would they psychologist. and That's what you just heard in the background there. Okay. I mean, what a fantastic movie.
00:24:41
Speaker
Fantastic actor. And to be able to do that in one take at his age, holy crap. So cool. Mind-blowing. Yeah. Awesome.
00:24:52
Speaker
Anything blow in your mind, Kieran, at the moment? You know what's blowing my mind, Justin. I was reading about the fact that our entire universe could be floating in the middle of a black hole.
00:25:12
Speaker
love I heard this too. Yeah. So, okay. the so the theory that, well, astrophysicists slash scientists, and people who look at cosmos stuff have worked out that there's these voids in space.
00:25:32
Speaker
And the voids are unevenly distributed, which doesn't make sense a for the idea of you know the expansion of the universe.
00:25:43
Speaker
and That these voids should be pretty evenly dispersed, but they're distributed. And so the theory is born that the universe is actually sitting inside a giant black hole so that it's kind of essentially in its own time warp, time lapse.
00:26:04
Speaker
So what is the existence here over a millennia is just a second in the black hole. yeah ah ah yeah and And apparently the theory then goes on to say that there are multiple universes within these black holes.
00:26:26
Speaker
Not just one. Yeah, right, right. ah Yeah. That was what's blowing my mind this week, Justin.
00:26:35
Speaker
Well, I mean, to get back onto my week, b i i guess I was blown a little bit away how stupid I was to like not see the problem that was wrong with the brakes.
00:26:52
Speaker
but Okay, because you you didn't tell me what the problem was. No. So after after getting my, like, cheer squad, you know, in in my garage. The brains trust. With her pom-poms. Yeah, okay, that cheer Yeah, okay, yeah. yeah She was in there like, you can do it, Justin.
00:27:11
Speaker
You're amazing. i was like, ah, I love my wife. um
00:27:16
Speaker
i sort of realized that the seals on the main – main master cylinder must be leaking some sort of air.
00:27:27
Speaker
Like and not enough to like see a lot of like fluid leakage, but enough so that it gets air in the system and then you give ba basically got no pedals. Yeah, no pedal.
00:27:41
Speaker
So yeah, I realized that I at least have to changed them. So I actually pulled apart the master cylinder, had a look inside. It was so simple. I was kind of impressed how simple it was.
00:27:53
Speaker
ah Now I looked at the seals and they looked okay. Yeah. So I thought, you know what? I'll put it back together and I'll just try again. But same problem. So in the end, what I ended up doing was ordering a bunch of parts again which you know another thing is just drive me insane is I have zero money. I mentioned this last week. like My bank account is empty. I cannot actually afford and to do these projects.
Support and Acknowledgments
00:28:21
Speaker
So ah whilst I'm there, i you know i want to give a massive shout out to my patrons. Yeah. Because basically what I'm going to say right now is the people supporting me on Patreon will basically pay for those new seals.
00:28:38
Speaker
that go into that hey go go into that master cylinder. Thank you to Thomas Buckner, Mark Foster, ah Janis Klemms, Ulla Skittred, Arthur Midgard, the Swedish maker, Mark Jones, ah Anstin Husses, who are the heroes.
00:28:57
Speaker
And an extra thank you to Thomas Mestad and Sylvester Arderson and Arne Heldt. I want to say he'sro his name wrong all the time, so that's why I say at Manglu Sisseren.
00:29:13
Speaker
and ah I can't even say that word right. But Arna as well, thank you so much. You guys are the sidekicks who support me with, you know to be honest, a ridiculous amount of money, which I'm very, very grateful for.
00:29:27
Speaker
And ah without your support, I can't build these crazy projects like the next project I started working on this week. o Do tell. ive I fear that you have some anxiety issues with cutting things.
00:29:45
Speaker
i I did at some point, but then I just went, screw it, I got this. ah So I started finally making the motorbike, which is like – So I've decided to go like this half chopper, half fat boy style.
00:30:00
Speaker
so basically it has like a crazy fat tire in the back. Right. Yeah. So it's the tire is Yeah. two hundred and forty now two hundred and sixty millimetres wide Nice.
00:30:17
Speaker
So it's it's really, it's really fat tire. Yeah. But it's like a small diameter Yeah. Yeah. It's a 14 inch rim. So, uh, yeah, it, it just, when I was mocking it up this week, I just thought, this is this going
Motorbike Project Updates
00:30:33
Speaker
to be cool?
00:30:33
Speaker
This is really going be cool. Hmm. Uh, But the problem was like you get a bit of like ah deer in headlights when you have to actually make a decision on how to do it.
00:30:45
Speaker
Yeah. so for For about a day, i was just like I was basically just walking around it, like stroking my beard, going, hmm, hmm, how am I going to do this?
00:30:56
Speaker
And in the end, what I ended up doing was i I went into Photoshop and I took a picture of the mocked-up ah motorbike with with the hand truck sort of kind of jerry-rigged on top of the uh the motorbike itself ah and so then i went into photoshop and i edited it to make it sort of to see what it would look like if i changed the frame and cut this and put this there and something like that so i end up using that and i found ah like a good design i liked and i went you know what let's go with that so
00:31:37
Speaker
On Thursday, ended up cutting, and I was pretty happy with it. Things went really smoothly. Did you go full emo? You went full emo on it? Yeah.
00:31:48
Speaker
this is
00:31:51
Speaker
No, I went across the wrist. I didn't go along the wrist.
00:31:56
Speaker
But, yeah, I – i To be honest, so what I did was the the hand truck has these sort of already bent angles, and I knew they weren't going to work for exactly what I was wanting to do. So i sort of come with like a genius idea that, oh, wait a second, if I cut it and then I turn, the rotate the piece of pipe, the angle goes in the right direction I want.
00:32:24
Speaker
So like, oh, that's a great way to do it. So I end up doing that again on the top path. And I don't know if anyone's been following my stories. Like I was so impressed. I was bending this shit with a hammer.
00:32:37
Speaker
and It was was turning out great. So I'm sort of at the stage now where I'm sort of mocking up the frame and getting it nearly ready to like weld up.
00:32:48
Speaker
um But i'm to be honest, I'm really liking it. I'm really thinking this this project's going to look really cool. ah There's still a lot of work to go on it. Like I'm going to do some crazy exhaust. I haven't decided exactly what that's going to look like yet.
00:33:05
Speaker
I think I have to wait until I sort of get the the mechanical side of things in place, such as the gear, sprockets and everything. ah And because I'm making a hard tail and I'm stretching it out, I kind of need to um make it like a double chain.
00:33:25
Speaker
The other side of it is the because the tire is so fat, I can't put the engine all the way to the left. because then the engine will be sitting weirdly like on the left only, if you understand my meaning.
00:33:40
Speaker
So that the the chain sprocket lines up with the rear chain sprocket. So what I'm going to do instead is I'm going to keep the engine in the middle of the frame. And then I'm going to put the like make a chain sprocket that goes to another secondary sprocket.
00:33:58
Speaker
which has two gears, one coming from the engine and one going ah leaving from that to the rear sprocket. So I can basically realign the chain drive, basically.
00:34:11
Speaker
I don't know if that makes any sense. That's overly complex to me. but I watched your eyes glaze over, Kieran. It's okay. so But the truth is I'm just super excited. I'm pumped. that it's this I feel like it's going to look pH fat.
00:34:26
Speaker
pH fat. Yeah. And I even caught myself saying, like, this is a million-view video. Yeah. That's what I said to myself. It's probably going to flop.
00:34:39
Speaker
But, you know, like, you know you never know. You never know. There's all these American chopper lovers out there just chomping at the bit. Maybe they're getting pissed that I used a hand truck. I don't know.
00:34:51
Speaker
it Maybe. and That's a controversy. That data will send your viewership through the roof. And then then put an open-ended question at the end on how you could improve it.
00:35:03
Speaker
Oh, yeah. For sure. Click. ben happy People are just going to be like, put a GSXR 1000 engine in it. you know so yeah you need You need more power to turbocharge it.
00:35:21
Speaker
There's always someone on the internet with a bright idea, isn't there? ah Talking about people with bright ideas, I've got a comment today um my video. What did it say? Hold on.
00:35:31
Speaker
He said... Which one? on the On the snowmobile. Okay, yeah. He goes, whoa, dude, mind blown. Your build is awesome.
00:35:43
Speaker
good English, by the way, go-kart, fast-forward, snowmobile, fast-forward, hmm, maybe you can turn it into a jet ski, cheers, beers.
00:35:56
Speaker
Cheers, beers.
00:36:00
Speaker
So whoever left that comment, jet ski? Hmm. could I turn that into a jet ski? I don't know. Hmm. but Yeah, like, and how are you going to still make it look like a hand truck? Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
00:36:18
Speaker
ah that's fun. That's it. Yeah, people are pretty crazy. I'm pretty impressed, actually. the like Although that video is not doing very well, this nomobile video i like the the hand truck go-kart is still going well.
00:36:38
Speaker
Still ticking away. Still ticking away. Yeah. yeah If it wasn't for that, I'd probably have zero income this month from from YouTube. Not that it's a lot of money coming in, don't get me wrong, but it's still something.
00:36:51
Speaker
I thought you were rolling in the YouTube megabucks just now. I wish. I wish. like the Swedish maker. That guy's rolling in it. Yeah, how did that, like, how does that guy get so much money?
00:37:03
Speaker
Yeah, his videos are crap. Yeah, did I mean, did you see him wearing a wig this week? Oh, I saw this one with him wearing a VR headset the whole frigging time.
00:37:14
Speaker
was like... Why am I watching this? yeah okay Because it was clickable, Karen. It was clickable. That's what I'm not doing right. I'm not making my shit clickable.
00:37:27
Speaker
Yeah, click. Click, click. it Seriously, dude, in the last 48 hours, that go-kart video has got 1.5 thousand views.
00:37:43
Speaker
Really? Yeah, it's like 1,500 views in the last 48 hours. That's pretty awesome. Yeah, it just keeps on going. keeps ongoing She's an evergreen, that one. Evergreen? All right. 195,000 views.
00:37:59
Speaker
Nice. Yeah, how cool is that? All my other videos bombing, but don't worry about that.
00:38:08
Speaker
It's the YouTube folly. Yeah. well But that's cool. It's exciting to see. I'm excited to see the project and how it comes together. think it's coming mean from what I've seen on Insta. like It's going to look pretty fucking rad.
00:38:25
Speaker
Yeah, I think so too. And I think the the world rally car is going to look really good. I spoke to Thomas this week um you know to check in with him and see how he's going. and Get a printing, bitch. I wish I could say that. because Poor guy. He's like snowed under.
00:38:42
Speaker
ah and and I really want to be able to like help him somehow, but it just seems I can't. I just have to leave it to him and it's you know it's in God's hands to get it printing. Is he God? Yeah. i need Do i need to like I need to start like, should set up a little altar and worship him?
00:39:09
Speaker
so i think that would probably help, to be honest, to get the car printing.
00:39:15
Speaker
the Yeah, that is one thing that I feel a little bit ah like frustrated with though is that you know once I fix these brakes which I'm hoping the parts will come this week and I'll find out oh yeah it was just the CLS and we're all good let's go then I could go test the chassis And then after I tested the chassis, like, what's there to do on it?
00:39:40
Speaker
I have to wait for the prints to be finished to even take it any further. Yeah, right. So that's two months of sitting around with my thumb up my ass, basically. so the truth is that, you know I'm kind of glad that I've got this motorbike to work on because otherwise, you know, I'd be up shit
Daylight Savings Time Debate
00:39:57
Speaker
creek.
00:39:57
Speaker
Yeah. It's not really, with your thumb up your ass, I suppose it's not giving you the shits, is it? What is giving him the shits this week, Justin? ah yeah Well, hence the reason why this podcast was a little late for you, Kieran, was daylight savings.
00:40:19
Speaker
Whoa, stole my shit. Who does number two work for? You stole my shit. Yeah. ah Yeah, I was going to say, come on, daylight savings. I mean, even Norway, it's not even, it's not even, why? You don't even need it.
00:40:42
Speaker
I'm actually a little bit confused. Like why? Why? So when we grew up in Australia, we had daylight savings all the time. Yeah, yeah, right. I'm like, oh, no, here we go. Put the clocks back. then Oh, no, here we go.
00:40:55
Speaker
Put the clocks forward. ah We had it twice a year just like we did here. Yeah, but – So have you heard the statistics on it?
00:41:07
Speaker
No. Tell me. What's this? So every time we wind the clock forward, e there is a spike in heart attacks.
00:41:18
Speaker
Oh, really? Yeah, because... People are like, oh, shit, I'm late. no Well, no, it's actually this. because Because people with hypertension and heart problems, right,
00:41:32
Speaker
When they don't get enough sleep, they get worse. Interesting. Right? So take an hour or of sleep away and mess your circadian rhythm up.
00:41:48
Speaker
e You're basically killing people. Oh, yeah. All just so you can sit out in the sunlight a bit later. so in Norway, the fucking sun goes down after 11 o'clock at night anyway. Yeah. Who needs it to be light till fucking 12? Like, I'm going to sleep too. The sun's up again at three.
00:42:10
Speaker
We can literally only have three to four hours of darkness. And I'm just like, that's just not enough.
00:42:20
Speaker
Not when I have to sleep. Fire out. Oh, it shits me to tears. Why do we have to change it? You know what? Actually, what she gives me the shits is the full hour jump.
00:42:31
Speaker
Why can't you do like a month-long 15-minute slide every every Sunday? That would make a lot more sense. That wouldn't work. People would be like, oh, we have to change the clocks again.
00:42:43
Speaker
yeah Is it 15 minutes forward or is it 15 minutes back? I don't understand. Cry me a river because no one's going, oh, no, I missed 15 minutes sleep. They're just like, oh, 15 minutes.
00:42:55
Speaker
Whatever. Snooze alarm for it. Well, that's true. That's true. You're saving lives. Yeah, saving. Exactly right. And just being a general less pain in the ass.
00:43:08
Speaker
Oh, daylight savings. Hmm. I mean, what do they call it in Norwegian? I don't even know. i don't know either. Ask, ask Lin.
00:43:21
Speaker
Lin, Lin, what's daylight savings called in Norwegian? Like when you change the clock back? from Hmm? e some beli And they just call it summertime and wintertime, guac. There you go.
00:43:39
Speaker
Somertid and wintertid. but Summertime and wintertime. There you go. Norwegians will never cease to amaze me. It's so straightforward. It's it's quite beautiful, really. yeah At the same time, come on. That's a stovsuga. Yeah, like a stovsuga, like Lynn says. It's a dust sucker.
00:44:04
Speaker
yeah What does it do? It sucks up dust. What are we going to call it? Dust sucker.
00:44:14
Speaker
a Norwegian. I'm was surprised they don't have a different name for wives here. yeah no It's not every wife, that's for sure.
00:44:27
Speaker
That's true. Hmm. um my ma what I'm recording a podcast here, woman. You can't just interrupt with your commentary.
00:44:40
Speaker
When I ask you a specific question, I got the answer. Go back to the TV. Women. Oh. or
00:44:53
Speaker
Or go get this too so good. Yes. She'll be doing us something about Mary soon enough. Oh, yeah.
00:45:05
Speaker
yeah. Daylight savings. Daylight savings. That's been giving me the shits as well this week. yeah
00:45:14
Speaker
but i have to admit, though, we kept the kids up a bit later last night. Yeah. And they woke up at around the right time. It actually worked out really well. Yeah.
00:45:25
Speaker
I didn't even know it was daylight savings. I was why is the oven clock an hour slow? i don't understand. ah So that's why I was late to to this podcast with you, Kieran, because I was like, we were having an argument, ah or not an argument, we were having a discussion about something that happened today.
00:45:45
Speaker
And, ah yeah, yeah. and I looked at the clock. I was like, yeah, we're still going to have hour until it's started. But yeah, apparently i should have been logged in already.
00:45:57
Speaker
Yes. So yes, there you go. The pitfalls of daylight savings, especially clocks that don't adjust themselves, that's the danger you have. The phone does it itself.
00:46:13
Speaker
And general, most things do it themselves. Anything electronically internet connected does itself, but like ovens, wall clocks, all the rest, you know, just kind of make them a wifi connected and they adjust themselves.
00:46:27
Speaker
And then the robots will kill us all. Yeah. Have you seen those humanoid robots? Holy shit. Have you seen this there's thing on YouTube I saw the other day where this guy asked ChatGPT what they would do if they were going to take over the world?
AI: Future Implications Discussion
00:46:45
Speaker
Like if AI was going to take over over the world? It's so goddamn creepy and like so plausible as well. Yeah, but you have to think about It's getting all its information from actual humans who have plotted this out already. Just copying word for word. It's true's true. It's true.
00:47:04
Speaker
may know i mean, if it was sentient, then we would have some issues. But there you go. Garen? Yes, Justin?
00:47:17
Speaker
Please sing your song.
00:47:21
Speaker
All right.
00:47:24
Speaker
I'll get aware of in close for the microphone with this one. Are you ready? i really was Don't blow out the microphone so I have to cut this completely out of it. Recommendation. Recommendation.
00:47:42
Speaker
What is your recommendation? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. what's What's your recommendation this week, Justin?
00:47:55
Speaker
Well, ah this recommendation comes from an experience I have had last night. um My recommendation is to not allow five girls to sleep over at your house when you're home alone.
00:48:11
Speaker
Hmm. Okay, explain.
Parenting Adventures and Challenges
00:48:15
Speaker
So...
00:48:17
Speaker
ah Because normally that wouldn't be an issue other than five girls being five girls. Yeah, I mean, to be honest, I think I was going to tolerate a little bit better than Kristen because like i just i don't care as much. And Emma also knows that I don't put up with shit.
00:48:36
Speaker
So anything that she comes to me with, like I'm just going be like, you girls need to sort that shit out yourself. So I'm not getting myself involved. Whereas Kristen might go out there and like, oh, come on, girls, you need to so you know be kind to each other. And you know I understand someone's upset and blah, blah, blah.
00:48:53
Speaker
so But the main reason why I'm going to that you don't allow five young girls, as in like... What age group are we talking here? Emma's 11, going on 12. Right.
00:49:07
Speaker
is ah So we we have an annex that I built for my wife, Kristen, some years back. And Emma and her friends realized it's a great place to have like a sleepover.
00:49:22
Speaker
Yeah, because it's just couches and beds. and Yeah, you know, and and it's fun. I get it. It's super, super cozy and the girls feel like they have their own space out there and, you know, that sort of thing. It's it's good.
00:49:35
Speaker
ah But the biggest issue that I had was that there am i sitting on the couch at 9 o'clock at night, none the wiser.
00:49:48
Speaker
at Five boys had sneaked into the annex and were hanging out with the girls. And I had no idea. i Honestly, i thought like ah when I heard about it this afternoon, was like, I was shocked.
00:50:06
Speaker
I was like, I had no idea there were five boys in addition, like at my house. Like, I was just sitting watching television because I wasn't feeling so well. And thought I'd just chill out, watch a bit of telly. And then, yeah, there was all sorts of things going on out there, apparently.
00:50:26
Speaker
ah had no control. i and poor Emma, you know, she felt completely boxed in by her friends who wanted the boys to be there.
00:50:37
Speaker
you know and she's she's not strong enough to like stand her ground, and she was actually scared to come tell me that she didn't want this because she was scared she was going to be called a snitch or something like this you know i by her friends. how did you find out what happened?
00:50:57
Speaker
Well, so the funny thing was – This afternoon, the boys also came over and, again, didn't knock on the door and say, hey, can we, you know, where the girls here? Can we, like, hang out?
00:51:10
Speaker
ah No, no. They just went. In fact, they parked their bikes at the neighbor's house and walked across their yard into ours and then into the annex for the girls.
00:51:22
Speaker
So when I come in at, like, quarter to five because I was going to go pick up Kristen, There are five boys. There's one girl up in the, in the like, you call it hems in Norwegian.
00:51:39
Speaker
It's like a little, like a ah sleeping sleeping floor, I guess you'd say. Yeah. There was a girl and two boys up there.
00:51:51
Speaker
I was like, what the fuck? And I felt like i had zero control because no one told me there were five boys in my house, right?
00:52:02
Speaker
And it is my house. It's in my yard. it's It's part of my house. It might be not attached to my house, but it's part of it, right? Yeah, right. and no one no one tells me that they're here.
00:52:14
Speaker
So I would go in there and I tell the boys, like, hey, like you guys didn't even say hello to to me. like I expect that you come and say a hello to me. And one thing I found out is that that's not normal here.
00:52:29
Speaker
like the That's not considered to be ah like something you need to do as politeness, to say hello to the adults that own the house, per house right? You could just waltz in and what the fuck you want in someone else's house and have zero respect. Like I've caught kids going into my fucking refrigerator and taking things without even asking. I'm like, wait, wait, wait, what? Just what are you doing?
00:52:56
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. I'm thirsty. I'm thirsty. Like, hey, that's it's my my fridge. Like, don't just go in there and just take shit.
00:53:08
Speaker
Like, who said? Did Emma say? Oh, no, Emma's out. I was just – no. No. Do you send any of these kids a new one like I would? I try to be – calm and collected because also it doesn't help emma right if i'm like ripping the girls and these guys as a new asshole like that doesn't help emma so i'm trying to be patient and trying to be clear about things uh but you know we did a we did a ring around you know with the parents and explain sort of what had happened
00:53:44
Speaker
And i'm it became very clear that the the parents to the boys, they like they couldn't see the problem. They couldn't see the problem that the girls were alone with no supervision at that age, you know, in this little house.
00:54:04
Speaker
I mean, is that saying something about the mentality of, you know, like if, let's say, for example, you know, one of these boys – sexually assaults a girl or does something inappropriate in that scenario.
00:54:21
Speaker
Is that saying that like somehow then is that mentality saying that somehow like the girls are responsible for that? Cause that's fucked. Well, I get the feeling that that was a little bit what they were saying, but I more think that they they don't have girls.
00:54:40
Speaker
So they can't be empathetic about the feeling of like what that would feel like. you know what mean? Even the mothers, right? like um correct Kristen might have to correct me, but I'm nearly certain all the boys that were there, they only have like...
00:54:58
Speaker
brothers as siblings. They don't have girls as siblings. Right. Yeah. So none of the mothers really understand what it's like to have a ah girl yeah in the family and have that feeling that like potentially, you know, their daughter could be be you know sexually assaulted or you know things could go too far, right?
00:55:22
Speaker
And have to have that under my roof happen, like I felt sick in my stomach. I can imagine. And like, i know, unfortunately, like they're getting to that age now where things start to happen.
00:55:37
Speaker
And I like refused for that to be under my watch. Right. And I felt completely used by these girls who bypassed me and who pressured Emma to not say anything.
00:55:51
Speaker
And in fact, poor Emma came in and sat next to me, but she was so scared to say something to me. because of the social pressure these girls had put on her. on her And I just,
00:56:06
Speaker
you try to do something really lovely for them, right? They don't have any other, there's no other house in our neighborhood that has the possibility to have like five or six girls, you know, over for a sleepover where it's kind of free to do what they want.
00:56:24
Speaker
yeah They come into the house and they use the bathroom and they might make some food and stuff in the kitchen, things like that. But generally, like it's kind of peaceful for the parents, which is super nice. And it's also super good to give the girls a bit of freedom, their own space. They kind of sort themselves out and enjoy themselves without being particularly looked upon or like told they need to be quiet by the parents.
00:56:49
Speaker
Uh, so But then to for them to use that opportunity and you know, to to kind of essentially push the line for me, at least anyway, myself, yeah of where what I think is appropriate and not appropriate.
00:57:05
Speaker
I feel a little bit kind of used up. yeah I feel just stupid too. like I feel stupid that i I couldn't see that something like that was actually going to happen.
00:57:16
Speaker
and you know I let them out there. I didn't go out there and check on them for like two hours. And that's when it happened. That's when these boys came and spen spent time with them there. And I have no idea what happened.
00:57:28
Speaker
No, right. for all I know, something did happen. And it happened on my watch, which I feel really bad about.
00:57:38
Speaker
So this is like the challenge of parenting, isn't it? Like you've got these small people, that's what they are, you know, that are discovering the world and, you know, pushing boundaries and those kinds of things. And you have to let them do that to a certain extent.
00:57:55
Speaker
ah But you also have to create boundaries to make sure that they do it safely. And that's really hard. I'm not creating a fricking make out house. That's not what that thing's for.
00:58:08
Speaker
I don't want all the kids to come over to my house and say, go to Emma's house. She's got this annex out there and we can like make out and do like things out there. Everyone knew one of those friends that had a house like that you know in in high school. right And then in, it's just, I mean, part of it is, you know, there's always going to be a party or a thing that the kids go to that you know, stuff happens.
00:58:39
Speaker
Unfortunately, you just hope that you teach your own kids to respect themselves and to respect others enough to not cross that line themselves. know,
00:58:53
Speaker
So we went into this a bit much, but I highly, highly recommend you do not allow five girls, young girls to overnight to sleep over in an outside attics.
00:59:06
Speaker
That is unsupervised. There could be sneaky boys going in there and doing stuff, which I'm not very happy about. I would oh tear them a new one if i caught them, but that's me.
00:59:22
Speaker
ah probably and I probably wouldn't have been in the same situation. i probably would have done the same thing as you. But, yeah, you you want to. thing Well, Kieran, I didn't know until after it happened.
00:59:35
Speaker
After they'd left. I had no idea. that they even were there. Yeah. And that comes it back to like this whole idea of like, what what are we teaching our children? Is this a, like, please tell me people, am I being unreasonable as a ah immigrant in this country of Norway? Like, am I being unreasonable that like people should come to my house and especially if you're a child and say, Hey,
01:00:05
Speaker
nice to see you, Mr. White, or nice to see you, Justin. And that's like acknowledge that I exist and say like, is it okay if I come play or is it okay that, you know I'm here or like I'm just going out to the annex to hang out with the but the rest of them. Is that okay? Like there's no respect.
01:00:24
Speaker
and then Well, I don't know if it actually has to do anything with respect. It's actually probably most likely to do with the underlying anxiety of dealing with someone they don't know.
01:00:36
Speaker
That's so true. It's like it's like the, ah don't want it's too scary to go and talk to Emma's dad and say, hi, we're here.
01:00:48
Speaker
So they just avoid it. Yeah, well, in my opinion, if you ain't got the balls to come say hello to me, you probably shouldn't be in my house. Right. yeah Because it means you're a little creepy kid.
01:01:02
Speaker
And i yeah I don't need you around my daughter. Right. right Because if if you're so insecure that you can't even say hi to a grown-up, you've probably got some issues that you're probably going to work out on your fellow friends, some girls you in an annex.
01:01:22
Speaker
Yeah. No one wants that. No one wants that. So there you go. Anyway, that that's so your recommendation is not to have sleepovers. Yeah. Yeah. Four girls, there you ah This is the life of a parrot, isn't it?
Series Recommendation: 1923
01:01:38
Speaker
Holy shit. My recommendation for this week, on a lighter note, 1923 season two. is nineteen twenty three season two Oh, thank you for bringing that up.
01:01:49
Speaker
I still haven't started watching it yet. Obviously, they've only brought one episode out, right? There's three now. ah okay That's what Justin's doing tonight. Yeah.
01:02:03
Speaker
Um, yeah, I really enjoy it. I, especially like Harrison Ford, you know, in that role in the main, like, um, role in the, like, what are the father of the house? that I don't, um, and then all the just different characters and obviously, um, uh, the, I've forgotten all their names now. Um, but the son who's, who's traveling back to the farm.
01:02:30
Speaker
is it James? I can't remember. but Yeah. and And it's just a really fascinating, amazing story, the way it's told.
01:02:42
Speaker
I really enjoyed it so far. And i'm like I'm kind of like, oh, when's the next episode coming? You know, kind of thing, because i want to... see the rest of the story so that's my recommendation you haven't seen 1923 obviously the first season out there so you can get started on that and it's a fantastic series so get on it yeah uh taylor sheridan is the the creator yeah it's the same guy's done yellow stone yellow stone
01:03:15
Speaker
yellowstone Yeah, yeah, let's do it. Yeah. and And the other one, which is the prequel, which is, what was it, 18...
01:03:24
Speaker
whatever it is. 1883. 1883, yeah. And he's so cool. is' Like Taylor Sheridan, he's like a real honest cowboy, like true blue cowboy. Actually so still still does cowboying for real life.
01:03:43
Speaker
o In between all these series. Yeah, it's pretty cool. yeah But really, ah really enjoyed it far. So... sovao Yeah, it's got all it's got all the whole nature of like all things it's not as well i mean i was about to say it's not as bloody and and brutal as as yellowstone started but i'm like now think about it maybe not because there's some pretty big battles that happened season one so yeah really really enjoyed it so far um the interesting really interesting to see the side of like
01:04:24
Speaker
Yellowstone, backstory behind Yellowstone in these kind of years, ah post-war, World War I kind of years. And they you know even just like being in Montana in the wintertime and what that was like and all the dangers ah that were around and things like that.
01:04:42
Speaker
So, yeah, really cool. A little bit like going back on the lines of of ah recommendations and and TV thing. I watched something yesterday about The the Hidden Treasure by Forrest Fenn.
01:04:56
Speaker
Ooh. Are you telling me about this? No, I don't think so. But I watched it yesterday. It was just interesting, right? So the story is a a millionaire was going to die of kidney cancer or something. And then so he decided he was going to like hide a ah treasure and like leave a like clues in ah in his own memoir.
01:05:17
Speaker
you ah And then but he didn't end up dying. Yeah, so he decided he would just do it anyway. And so he sold the book and then like hundreds of thousands of people were on the hunt for this treasure.
01:05:32
Speaker
Oh, you know This made me realize, Justin, I've got a bone to pick you through. Yeah? ah there's I might have been listening to another podcast yeah by one Joe Rogan.
01:05:48
Speaker
Okay. And realized there's a lot of crossover. it This podcast. What do you mean? oh yeah. The last week there was easily like two or three things from, from an episode of the Joe Rogan podcast that you brought up.
01:06:05
Speaker
Such as? Like the whole John Cleese thing. Oh, yeah, I heard that on there. Yeah, yeah and there's a bunch of other things in that same episode. Don't say a bunch of other things.
01:06:18
Speaker
If you're going to come with this the crazy accent. The pyramid thing they brought up in that episode. well, you were going to say it was mind-blowing. It's not true. That being said, they didn't say it was an outright lie.
01:06:32
Speaker
They were like, yeah, crazy, interesting. as Rogan tend tends to never to actually criticize or, you know, be critical of, of anything.
01:06:46
Speaker
which is what a lot of people hate about him. but Okay, so you brought up two things. whether Is there more? come on, you've got this bone to pick with me. Apparently, I'm just copying everything from Rogan.
01:06:57
Speaker
Let's just call this the Joe Rogan extension. What the fuck, dude?
01:07:07
Speaker
ah ah where ah Okay, we're done here, Kieran. We're done. We're not going to go into this argument. Thank you all for very much for listening.
01:07:18
Speaker
We will see you next week. Cheers, everyone. Bye. Bye.
