I'm fucking pissed. Oh no, what happened? I don't know. We lost an hour last night, which is rude I know okay it's not like we're. Are we adults? Are we fucking adults here or not? Um no, I'm just setting. I'm a little tired. Honestly, the truth is um, both honestly, and the truth is, this is going to be so fucking true what I'm about to say so wait, yeah, buckle up.
Robbie:All right, this there's no, there's no lies sensed in this next statement I'm about to say. So wait, yeah, buckle up. All right, this there's no. There's no lies sensed in this next statement I'm about to make. I stayed up late watching the second uh, lord of the rings movie last night the two towers, the two towers.
Robbie:Yeah, um, which real quick. Which two towers are we talking about? Saruman and saran, which that's a little lazy? Yeah, literally, like I mean, what do we? The guy's name is jrr tolki has two r's in his first name and he couldn't come up with.
Jordan:He just added an m and flipped the r and the u anyway I bet you, if he had a comment section back then, that would be the number one thing, like who's the bad guy? Why are they both named very similarly? Yeah, you can.
Robbie:Why is that one? Just a fiery eyeball? Where's fucking? Uh ben ben, uh johnson, I don't remember his name. The guy with the visine, the, the red eye relief ben stein ben stein jeez, he's like saran, saran ferris star um, yeah. So I recently have been re-watching the lord of the rings movies. Nice and honestly, they're fucking awesome. I mean hey hot take here yeah, yeah hot take. They're awesome and nickelbacks making a comeback, so both hot takes.
Robbie:Yeah, I'm willing to die in one of those hills for sure. Yeah, at least one. Um, it would be hard to die on two separate hills, you would have to get revived, stumble your way to the next hill. Yeah, Anyway so anyways, yeah. So I watched the first one last week and I mean just fantastic. It makes me. The only problem is it is super long and I'm jumping around here, but in the age of, uh, tv shows, like if that was cut up into like 25 episodes, you know, instead of three, three hour movies, but oh my god, it holds up.
Robbie:I mean, elijah wood is just so good and the real hero of the story and I'm only in the second one here and I think we could say it at the same time Sam Sam yeah, Sam Wise is you know what I mean? He's the fucking man and just he's in a toxic relationship with a guy who's obsessed with jewelry and just over and over again gets his heart broken. But he, he follows through. So I've seen them before, so I know sure I know what happens.
Robbie:Hey, spoiler alert, you know I I know the ending but, it's so interesting to go back and watch him again and just fall in love with uh sean astin for the 15th time.
Jordan:Fucking love that guy he is incredible in those movies yeah not only just as the the the character of sam, but as an actor he's really good. Yes um, the only question I have is are we watching the extended versions? Because I have, and they're long for sure but it's it doesn't feel long to me, because I think it's kind of like when we, when we drove back from reno yeah, when I was like I've already been driving for 10 hours. What's another three? Like who gives?
Jordan:sure, when you've already been watching a movie for three and a half hours. What's another hour and a half?
Robbie:like it's not. Are they like five a piece then?
Jordan:they're. I think they're like four plus.
Robbie:Yeah, they're long as fuck dude, I gotta know so no, the thing is, I've just been renting them off youtube all right, I don't have dvds anymore.
Robbie:I don't even know if you can get dvds, uh, maybe off ebay some old people the bottom years ago. I have an xbox. Hopefully they play tvds. I don't even know. But I've been watching with madison and uh, and so I was like she's like the, is this the extended version? And I'm like, I was like no, I, I well, I don't think so. I don't know. I just got it off youtube and she's like, oh, I thought that something was missing. She's's like, yeah, sorry, I'm used to, I have the extended versions.
Robbie:So, I'm just used to that and I'm like so then why am I renting them off YouTube when you have? That's like me. I'm like here's a fucking well tequila shot and she's like oh, I've got 1942 at home, bring it over. You don't drink, so you don't understand that, but yeah you know what I? Mean I'm like I've got lord of the rings at home. She's got the fucking premium version.
Jordan:So yeah, um but yeah, she has peter jackson, she lives with him. Yes, and yeah yeah, dude, I I've seen all the extended versions and what's really funny is I'm I'm in the process of watching all of the super fan episodes of the office on peacocks. Sure, not peacocks, I think it's just one.
Robbie:Okay, you're fucking seventy three years old, going over to walmart slater like come on, it's already started and what I love the office like.
Jordan:It's my favorite show it's. I know every episode. I could fucking say quotes forever. It's my favorite show it's. I know every episode. I could fucking say quotes forever. It's my favorite. There are super fan episodes which are basically just like deleted scenes for the most part, yeah, um, but they add. Sometimes they add really really funny shit that, like you didn't know about.
Jordan:Sometimes they add stuff that, if it was left in, contradicts the rest of the episode a little bit, so it kind of makes it a little weird to watch so like, for instance, like somebody, like they all go to a bar, but in the deleted scene that you watch, somebody's like yeah, I'm not going to go, but then he's at the bar and you're like oh, like, it's kind of a weird like anomaly, I guess Toby, toby, yeah, and so I can see through it, though because I've seen the real episodes so many times, I don't give a shit.
Jordan:It's awesome. The extended scenes for the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit, I think, are there. They're so good because they're still a part of the same story.
Robbie:You know what I mean.
Jordan:Like it's already written, like Peter, yeah, it's not like Peter Jackson's like like you know what, let's give him a hoverboard in this up in this scene, and then we have to deal with it. You know, there's, there's one scene I think it's in the fellowship of the ring, it may be it could be in two towers, I can't remember uh, where the lambus bread that they're eating, yeah, you know, talking about like they get from the elves or whatever. There's a scene where legolas eats like a tiny bit, like a fucking, just the littlest bite ever, and he gives it back to like Mary and Pippin and he's like Lambus bread will fill you up, like just that much is enough for like an entire meal. And then it cuts to Mary and Pippin and I can't remember who's who in this situation, but they're like I've eaten four of them, like he's just eaten for full, like just like. A little scene like that is just so funny.
Jordan:It's so good, dude. I love those movies and they do hold up. They're old as fuck at this point, yeah, they're like they're thirty years old, they're exactly they're old dude.
Robbie:Yeah, we're old, they're old. There is there is one part in the two towers. They're old. Um, there is, there is one part in the two towers um good, pull lambus bread, because I just watched the part where I've read the books, bro, I know, I know.
Robbie:oh, they of course, okay. Uh, where they're like you got bog with Gollum. Yeah, schmeagle and God. I was so afraid of him when I was younger and I still am, because he bites and biting freaks me the fuck out, like that's a trump card for me. If you were in a fight with someone, my uncle taught me, so I got into a fight, quote, unquote. Like a fight with someone my uncle taught me, so I got. Okay, I got into a fight quote unquote like a wrestling match with my uncle when I was like eight and he crushed my nuts and when I say he crushed my nuts.
Robbie:He just took his arm and crushed him and I was like that's not fair. And he's like listen, you little motherfucker. He probably really said that he's in the navy. He's just a crazy guy. He's like in a fight, there is no fight fair, there's fight to win, there's fight to survive. And I was like, oh shit what is this guy seen?
Robbie:on an aircraft carrier in the middle of the fucking ocean. Jesus, like it's not, like he was on the front lines anyway, yeah, um, and so, yeah, if you're ever in a fight, bite the fuck out of someone, gouge their eyeballs out, but if anyone ever bites me, you win, I don't. You can have whatever you want, I, it scares the fuck out of me, anyway. Um, he's, he's, creepy dude he's so creepy.
Robbie:And then it's like he went, he defeats, he defeats, uh, gollum smiegel. He's like, remember, he's like uh, go away. And gollum's like well, he's talking to himself, it's, he's schizophrenic, right. And he's like go away three times. And then he's just gone and then he's just like the he's just a pathetic puppy, a fun guy that hates sam wise and calls him fat. Yeah, um, and then they betray him and he's goes. Anyways, we don't have to get this, isn't once. Okay, we're doing it, we're now. It's a lord of the rings podcast.
Jordan:I'm thinking of some other extended scenes that I feel like are extended. I could be wrong in the first movie when uh, sam, I'm sorry, when? When, uh, g Gandalf tells Frodo about the ring okay, does he? What? Does he like leave at all, or is it just like? He's just like, hey, I'm going to tell you about the ring. I feel like he just is in the room with him and he's like, hey, let me tell you all about this fucking crazy ring that your uncle had.
Robbie:I already forgot.
Jordan:I extended scenes I swear to God he goes off for like a montage. He's like looking at old books. He's like in caves fucking with candles and shit. He's like he's looking through like all of these like old documents to like find the lineage of like where yeah, yeah, went yeah like in the, and I remember reading the books and being like there's like nine months that happens between that point and then him actually telling him about it.
Jordan:But in the movie it happens in like two seconds yeah, here we go, the books are the books and the movies are the movies, but oh, god, I remember down I'd be down for a lord of the rings podcast dude. It's fucking funny let's do it. I would love that um.
Robbie:So anyways, he falls in the bog, the death water where everyone dies. Yeah, and the. This is the only part that hasn't held up through the whole thing. He fucking, he falls in the water and he opens his eyes and the like pirate ghost from SpongeBob. You know what I'm talking about? The.
Jordan:Flying Dutchman.
Robbie:Yes, the Flying Dutchman is there like, oh, I'm scary and I'm in the water, I'm going to get you, and then Schmeagol saves them. But yeah, yeah, it's. It's a blast so far. I'm so excited to watch the third one. But I mean again between other than Sam, unsung heroes, the fucking trees, dude the, the walking when they fuck up Saruman City and when they break that damn open, I'm like yes yeah, dude, it's, it's super fun.
Jordan:Yeah, uh, on hbo they have like the cartoon versions of the movies yes, okay, and like the 70s, oh really, and I was interested. So there's. I don't want to spoil anything for anybody, but it's not even in the movie, so I'm fucking who cares been out since 2003, so at the end of, at the end of return of the king, after they've figured out all of their return policies or whatever they're.
Jordan:Yeah, um, they frodo and sam and everybody come back to the shire and they deal with like an uprising. That is happening because in the movies Sauron dies, saruman dies. I'm sorry he falls off of the the tower right. You saw it already. It happens in the two towers right, I think. So who cares in the? Definitely doesn't. In the books, he doesn't forgot.
Jordan:Okay, in the, the books he doesn't die and he's at the shire and he's like leading like a revolution so what? Hobbit dude. I swear to god, this is like the last two chapters or so of that book and I was like this does not fucking happen in the movie. It's like. It's like a happy scene Sam has like four kids, like everybody's fucking hanging out JRR.
Robbie:Don't you think they've been through enough, dude? What are you? Peter Jackson was like sorry dude. Everything else is cool, the fuck. The end of the book.
Jordan:So he comes back and there's like this little tiny mini war that they have to fight and like other Hobbit factions are like joining forces, they're like like it's crazy. Anyway, I was wondering, because the movies that came out, the cartoons, I was like I wonder if that part's in it, because maybe they were more true to the story. You know what I mean, maybe. So I turned it on and I was just fast forwarding through like all of it, basically just to get to the very end and it is shit. It's the worst fucking movie I've ever seen, really, I mean it's the worst fucking movie I've ever seen, really.
Jordan:I mean it's just hard to. It's hard to compare a shitty cartoon to like the masterpiece of those movies yeah, of course he's fighting. At the very end I forgot her name, but she's fighting like the witch king, basically like yeah, the blonde one.
Robbie:Yeah, a man can't kill him yeah, exactly and a woman can.
Jordan:In the in the peter jackson one it's so awesome. Like the guy's fucking helmet is fucking cool as shit. Everybody's got cool weapons, like I don't know. It's just everything's like grimy. In the movie the guy has like a robot voice and he doesn't have a head, it's just like a crown and it's I get it. You know, somebody has to make some choices, right, sure, it just looks. It looks horrible and I was like this is I'm never gonna watch these. I don't. Golem's like a frog in those movies. It's fucking weird, okay.
Robbie:The 70s were crazy. They were all fucked up on lsd I will say I I'm going back and watching it again, I'm remembering things and I remembered that part uh theodine's daughter that fights the ghost king or whatever. And then I mean, let's be honest, immediately after that battle is getting filled to the brim by aragorn let's just, let's just be straight up here live tyler is so pissed all right, because she's she offers.
Robbie:she's like listenragorn has got to have a big old D because she's like I'll give up immortality with my people to stay here with you for a fraction of my life, like she's going to live for thousands of years and he's going to be dead in 35. I mean, at most, if he's lucky he doesn't get gangrene from like walking outside or something.
Jordan:And he already has measles, for sure.
Robbie:There's literally he doesn't have measles. And then I don't know 15 minutes later he's like well, this blonde chick's pretty hot and she can swing a sword, so yeah he's, he's piping her down after that battle for sure.
Jordan:That's hilarious dude. I could go on and on, but we should move on.
Robbie:It's like 16 minutes.
Jordan:We're talking about stuff that we mostly don't know what we're talking about.
Robbie:Sure.
Jordan:Yeah, let me know how it goes, dude. There's extended versions of the Hobbit too as well. Oh fuck, those movies are good, but I don't enjoy the fact that it it took the movie, or it took the book and then added, like, a bunch of other stories that are, I guess, canon and fine, but it's just not the hobbit by itself, right, you know, it's oh sure they the hobbit by itself. It was a movie, would be 90 minutes long yeah, the book was like 61 pages.
Robbie:Yeah, super little love that book though, so good, but anyway yeah for sure.
Jordan:Dude, that's awesome. I'm excited to to hear about it. I think we've had, uh, you know, a rough day. Right, you're talking about losing an hour except I don't what real quick, sorry.
Robbie:Except I thought it was 5, 40 and it was 640 and the sun was still just frigging. Jane, all over my face. Dude, I loved the fact that the sun was up until like eight. I mean it's 757.
Jordan:It might be down now, but yeah it is, but yeah, you know rough day. I think knowing that we're going to lose an hour is worse than actually having it happen to us. Yeah, it's just a brutal realization. Yeah, that being said, I'm pretty, I don't know. I like to call myself a realist. I realize that that could sometimes be perceived as negativity.
Robbie:Sure but in my opinion it's just, I'm being realistic.
Jordan:Some people are overly positive.
Robbie:So well.
Jordan:Thank you for that um, I I think my way of life has gotten me to where I'm at, and I'm just overly paranoid and anxious about a lot of things, but pretty pissed off all the time. It's cool, it's fine with me, I guess, uh. But that being said, I've had three events over the last two days that I think I don't know. I'm seeing the brighter side of life's changing a little bit.
Jordan:Honestly, the hour being deducted from all of our lives today didn't really even hit as hard because of these things. What? It's kind of weird, yeah.
Robbie:I blame out.
Jordan:So after the financial advisor, steph, was like we should try to meal prep, let's go to the store, oh, we threw. She threw out almost everything in our fridge because it was all just like who knows when we got this. Like it's just so bad we're starting. We started this like a month ago and maybe because we were watching the bear at the time, I literally have like a painter's tape roll right next to the fridge and we just put a fucking piece of tape and write the fucking date on whatever it is yeah because so many times we are so confused about like when did we even get this corned beef?
Robbie:like I have no idea is like corned beef, supposed to be green, or did you?
Jordan:die this, yeah, like it's. It's it's good system so far. So, anyway, step throughout a bunch of shit. So she wanted to go to the store. She has this uh, you know shopping list, so we go. She wants to go to walmart and festival, uh, and I don't want to do any of it because, I, I would. I would tolerate one store, but going to two like that's two different parking spaces, two different bullshit.
Jordan:Like I, just I, I was like, well, we're going to two. Like that's two different parking spaces, two different bullshit. Like I, just I was like, well, we're going to Walmart to do your return, why don't we just see if they happen to have potatoes here as well? Yeah why don't we just you know, I'm sure they have stuff?
Robbie:Yeah, mash them, stick them in a stew right?
Jordan:And so she was like, all right, yeah, she has some wants that. She was like maybe festival would have it, but we can look. So we go in and I'm like, all right, it's walmart, I'm not expecting anything. I grabbed the cart. I've had the worst luck in fucking shopping carts. Over the last like 10 times I've been to the shop or like a grocery store. Yeah, that it's starting to like impact my decision making I'm like greasy, like what are we talking about? No, just mostly shitty wheels oh yeah like just absolutely like the alignments off.
Robbie:I'm pushing it at like 70 degrees like it's just like a little brother ran over his little sister's hair and it's stuck in there for some reason, so the fucking tire doesn't spin.
Jordan:Yeah, okay, I guess so like when I'm looking at I don't know, presumably like five or six potential carts. I'm like which one is going to be good and I just selected the wrong one.
Robbie:Almost every time you line them up and like move them or what you know it's like I don't have time to line them up and move them I'm just hoping that, like my abilities to perceive damage to wheels, would be a good idea, you know.
Jordan:And so I grabbed this cart and dude, it was like velvet on butter dude, no, velvet, it was so smooth. I just I couldn't stop talking about it. Stuff was like we need to get this and I was like this watch me do a three sixty right now.
Robbie:This is fucking unbelievable and I was like this.
Jordan:Watch me do a three sixty right now. This is fucking unbelievable and I was so happy about that because it really does make your shopping experience better, because you're just gliding through the aisles.
Robbie:It definitely was.
Jordan:It was amazing, I think. For me, walmart probably isn't like the top tier of shopping cart quality. I think target's probably the best in my opinion, but sure, this one, it was awesome and it made my day.
Robbie:Honestly, it was great I don't know, though, because the the target ones are made out of plastic and it's like doesn't uh, it's not quite as heavy, doesn't have the weight to it that I like when I'm pushing a cart. I agree, though I feel like I've never gotten a good cart and that'll. I mean I've. I think I've gone back and switched a cart before. Yeah, because that'll ruin a whole shopping trip. If I have to, yeah, if I have to like, if I'm fucking drifting while going straight, then I'm I'm out I if I feel like I'm pushing it on gravel and I'm not on gravel like that's a deal breaker.
Jordan:It sucks. It's the worst feeling if I'm at woodman's, which already has fucking like tiled floors for some stupid fucking reason. It is really hard. I hate it so much so that really put me in a great mood. Then today we had to help uh steph's mom with her lake county fair sale thing, yeah, and so I had to go uh pick, or I had to leave at like two o'clock and I'm like is that where you were pushing the cart on gravel, or I just wondering?
Jordan:I don't know where that happens, but no, so I had to get gas, which I went a route that I normally don't go. What is that?
Robbie:uh, consistency is the hobgoblin of fucking whatever consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.
Jordan:Jordan thank you for remembering that appreciate I just I still remember it because it does hold.
Jordan:Thank you, brian plinsky, all right you son of a bitch so I take this weird route and I get to a four-way stop and the car in front there's like three lines of cars, so there's not completely four, but the car in front of me gets into that weird moment of like should I go, should I not? The other cars are all like, and then he eventually just like, hit the fucking gas and just zoom through. So the next two cars figured out what they were going to do and by the time I get there, there's no fucking question that it was my turn. Yeah, and it was so wonderful to just be like this is my time I can go through.
Jordan:So like the cart put me in a good mood. This is so much better than the cart because like I hate to be in that mode, you know, like I'm just not knowing what to do. And then we go do all the packing up things, we go to dinner. I have french fries and I was like can I get the ketchup? And your best friend, Jason, passes me the fullest bottle of ketchup I have ever fucking had in my life. It was, it was unbelievably full. I mean it could have come from the Heinz factory this morning. Yeah, probably. Yeah, straight from the Heinz factory this morning, yeah, probably yeah straight from Pennsylvania and like to somebody else.
Jordan:Maybe that isn't a big deal, but I don't know. I feel like at the shopping cart lock it tells you anything. I have never gotten a full bottle of ketchup in my whole life.
Robbie:No, they don't exist.
Jordan:Yeah, you pick it up and you're like I'm going to have to smash this against the table to get one ounce out and most of it's going to be water. I think it's going to be bad, exactly. I don't know man. Three things that happened in a 24 hour span. Basically, that just kind of put me in a good mood. And now you're talking about Lord of the Rings. I kind of want to watch him now. So I just I don't know man.
Robbie:Honestly, looking up today, I don't know what's going on. You're gonna walk into work tomorrow and get a promotion. Uh, you're gonna find 20 bucks on the ground. But hey, play the lottery, jordan. I will say I'll address both of these individually. First things for all through. All three things individually. First things first. Um, if I have to get out of my car more than once on the drive home, I'll starve to death. I don't give a shit. I'll cut a leg off to not have to get out a second time. Um, a first time is hard enough. I'm like that's why you never get gas, because I'm. I'm like fuck, I mean, could I make it home, back to work, home back to work on seven miles of gas, uh.
Jordan:But then I will say the other thing about the walmart and the festival that we are going to go to. Yeah, they're like almost in the same parking lot so they're really close together and I still was like I don't want to make that journey that's you need time to recover between parking spots too, like, yeah, it might as well be more door over there, because I am not walking that far it's not happening.
Robbie:I can't yeah you shall not park and go into the second uh building. Sir, I called you sawyer.
Jordan:Wow, that's that quote is different in the book. I'll just say it I'm sorry, what is it? What is it? Uh, in the movie it's you shall not pass, yeah, and in the book it is you cannot pass, I believe, and it just doesn't sound as good.
Robbie:I think shall is the word, shall is the word, shall is definitely the word.
Jordan:Was it Ian McKeon? Is that him? Yeah, mckeon McKeon, is it Ian McKeon?
Robbie:I think it's.
Jordan:McKeon? I think there might. Who the fuck is Ian McKeonon? Is that just?
Robbie:a name I just made up you just. Uh. Well, you're saying his last name in spanish. Maybe, I don't know, it's a double l, so ian and mckeon kind of. I mean, it's just mick ian sounds like a kid that has worked at mcdonald's for too long it does look like mckellen, but I don't think I've ever heard him pronounced like that really I've never heard ian mckeon.
Jordan:I don't know. I've always heard sir ian mckeon listen, billy mcbilly.
Robbie:I mean, what are what are we doing here, hey, jordan mcjordan like that's a weird. Why would anyone do that?
Jordan:are you gonna listen to someone say it?
Robbie:yeah, if it's mckeon I'll. I'm not watching the third movie if it's mckeon, I'm glad he died. If I'm just, I'm just gonna say it, I'm just gonna throw it out there well, it says mckellan in all of these like weird, like how to pronounce names.
Jordan:Yeah, youtube videos, I don't. I just feel like I've always heard mckeon.
Robbie:Maybe I'm just crazy is this a gray goose white geese thing or whatever gray geese white goose thing?
Jordan:because the dress was black and blue, dude, not gold and white or whatever.
Robbie:Yeah, fuck that dress laurel, yeah laurel, yanny umesting on my Yannies over here. Anyway, sorry, I will say also at a four-way stop you just got to take the reins sometimes.
Robbie:Yeah, you just got to make the decision and if you're mad at me, too bad. And then what was the last thing? Full bottle of ketchup. As a server on Sundays, I'll like sorry I'm writing a dissertation here in response to your awesome day. I'm happy for you. But I'll like we've got a shelf that we'll call it the ketchup shelf because it's the shelf where the ketchup goes. And uh, I'll go through bottles until I find one that's like full enough that deserves to go to the table. Okay, and bros, I'll go through 17 bottles sometimes and they're all empty. I mean, am I gonna throw the empty ones away? Fuck, no, that's for the next person to do. Uh, but yeah, I'll go through 7, 25, 31, a bunch.
Jordan:Yeah, and and just to make sure I find a full one, and there isn't one, they don't exist, so that sets you apart from the scrubs basically that one act has made your life better because people have been happier to deal with you that's why I make fat stacks when I'm serving tables, you know I'm uh I get good tips just because I make sure the ketchup is full.
Robbie:But speaking of work um, I hinted at it last week. I have to be really careful here. Everything's kind of blown over. I can't say any names, so if I do, jordan, please beep them out. Um, oh, I almost just said them all, so you'd have to go through and bleep them, but I won't. Uh, I think it's time I tell the story from last week. It's okay, it's pretty, it's crazy in my opinion, but so, uh, there's a guy that I work with who I've known for 35 years. Uh, he's like 67 68, he's got developmental disabilities. His name's ian mckeon.
Robbie:I was gonna say when is ian mckeon gonna show up in the story? Right away. I'm not going to edge you with an Ian McKeon. He might, because he was gay, is what I'm saying. Oh, yes, yes, for sure, get it. I'm so fucking funny dude, I'm killing it right now. Anyway, there's this uh old gentleman who has developmental disabilities, and if I'm, if I'm being frank, he can. He can be a fucking asshole.
Jordan:I'll just put it out there listen I'll be frank as well. I agree. Yeah, I've seen him in in the wild in the wild.
Robbie:Yeah, yes, um, that's I mean this guy. We've had our knock down, drag out verbal fights. We've had arguments. You know what I mean? Sure, sure, um, because, listen, this is where people get confused. People with disabilities are human beings. Okay, like you don't always have to deal with them with velvet gloves, you just treat them like a human being, because that's what they are. And some of them are assholes, and it's that's just what it is right. And you have to be patient because it's not their fault, right?
Jordan:yeah um I think from an outsider seeing that kind of behavior, it is confusing because you're not dealing with it every day. Yeah, I think for me, the first couple times I ever witnessed any sort of like normal conversations happening, I was like, are people not aware? Like what the fuck is going on? Like, where are the velvet gloves?
Robbie:yes, but why are you being mean to that person?
Jordan:yeah, and then being a part of that for a year or so it was like, okay, yeah, they're normal people. They just Everyone wants to be treated normal. Yeah, that's just what it is right.
Robbie:Exactly so. Anyway, this guy can be a handful. I'll preface with that. He has a rival, I will say an older gentleman that does not have disabilities, and I don't know what started it exactly. They used to be at least cordial, but somewhere along the way and I'm not going to get into their relationship or how they know each other but, um, the guy without disabilities started hating the ian. We'll call him ian. Ian, that's not his name, uh, but we'll call him ian. And we'll call the other guy billy, mcbilly or whatever we said. So billy. So billy without disabilities just hates ian's guts for some reason and I've noted, I've had altercations with him before where, uh, ian I have to keep reminding myself the name has walked in from outside and billy has like flipped on the double bird behind his back and then looked at me like I was gonna think it was funny yeah, I had to be like are you what's going on here?
Jordan:like I raised you billy like. That's embarrassing and pathetic you know what I mean I think I'm pretty sure I said that to him.
Robbie:He apologized. We moved on. Well, last sunday my mom went home early, or you know. We're at work and I hear, uh, ian go bullshit. He just yells bullshit which catches my attention. I look up and I know ian really, really well he's pretty loud too. He's very loud, yeah and uh, I've heard him say that before and it's always in response to something, so I don't know, I won't get into it too much more than that.
Robbie:But I look up and Billy is holding a chair. I don't, I don't know, I didn't know he could move that fast but he's like holding a chair threateningly towards Ian. I'm fucking so mad. I made up these names, it's so hard to keep up with and I hear, I hear Ian go.
Robbie:What are you gonna hit me with a chair?
Robbie:I'll sue your ass. Perfect response, because Billy put that fucking chair down quick. But at this point I'm already coming around the corner. I could barely see what was going on. I just saw him holding the chair. And at this point I come around the corner, I send Ian to the kitchen and I'm like and this is where I this is the only part of it that I wasn't super happy about but I, I come around the corner. I'm like what the fuck do you think you're doing? Seriously, I'm gonna get the fuck out of this restaurant right this second. And here's the thing. I'm mr teddy bear. All right, I'm mr.
Robbie:Everyone, I'm not mad. I've said this before. I might have a big bomb, like my temper might be a big bomb, but it's a mile long fuse. I'm not getting that mad more than like three times in my life. I was fuming mad and I'm like full dad voice, this 75 year old man. I'm like, get the fuck out of here now. And he goes to sit down and he's like I'll drop it. And I and I was like no, you won't, you'll get the fuck out of here, stand up and leave. I was like not having it at this point, because here's the thing Ian might be an asshole, but he's not aggressive and we're not going to threaten anyone with physical violence, especially someone with disabilities.
Jordan:And so I can't even think of a thing that would happen to me. I'd be like like you know what? There's a chair shot in it for you, if you should tell you like, that is, I can't even imagine words only would just be very difficult for me to even get to that point. Um, I can't wait to find out what somebody has to say to me, for me.
Robbie:Yes, for you to pick a chair up exactly and listen you have your mckeon and hey, you've got your fair share of hate crimes under your belt, and so for you to say that I mean that's, that's huge, uh so, and I mean this is gonna be a niche joke because I don't know who's watching wrestling anymore, but I think what happened is bill looked up and the Rock was standing there and did a throat cut move, and so he picked up a chair. John Cena's heel turn.
Robbie:I don't even know I don't watch wrestling anymore, but I know about it.
Jordan:It's everywhere, dude, it's everywhere.
Robbie:And all the participants today, especially my guy, TD, who loves to just talk yeah manically and is like hey, do you see that the bears picked up ben johnson?
Robbie:hey, do you see the miami dolphins, my brother's favorite team, I don't know? And he's like did you see that john cena made a heel turn and kicked cody rhodes in the dick? Because the fucking the final boss made it? I'm like, okay, yes, I saw it on tiktok anyway. It's so funny. So at this point, uh, billy gets up and starts leaving, thank god. And he looks at me and he's like I'm not afraid of you, which, if I learned anything from reading the game in eighth grade, if you say something out loud to me, it means you are thinking about that. So he was afraid of me, but that's fine, because what I said to him was like I don't need you to be afraid of me, I need you to leave. Like I don't, I could care less if you're afraid of me or not. You're 75, your old osteoporosis ass. Like get out of here, we're not doing this.
Jordan:The last time I ever said I'm not afraid of you. I think I was like my dad can beat up your dad you know, I mean like I was in third grade. Why, what yeah?
Robbie:That's such a weird sentence to say as an adult, and in that moment, last man Exactly, and like, in that moment he's a, he's a thick guy too, so I mean, maybe he's sturdy, but in that moment you have to like be ready for any situation. So in my head I'm like, if he comes at me, I have to be ready to react, which I wasn't, I didn't think he would, but I was just completely embarrassing him in front of his wife and everyone else at the restaurant.
Robbie:I actually feel bad a little bit about that, but not really, because I think that the situation called for it. So he left. I apologize to his wife. Things were pretty awkward until today. We finally talked a little bit, not about it we just had random conversation, which was nice, and I thought I was gonna get in trouble because there was, you know, staff and participants there so I had to walk around and, like I sat down with everyone.
Robbie:I was like, hey, are you okay? I want you to understand that I wasn't because I I was scary as hell. Like I don't that that version of me scares me, because I sure I, I have realized that I am fight and not flight in most situations. You know, sure, really, I'm freeze and then fight, like I freeze for a second and then I'm like, okay, I guess I should probably do something about this I think I'm like complain and then run, yeah sure.
Robbie:It's not like flight, you're just like moving away. You don't want to deal with it.
Jordan:You're like there's fight flight or ignore it.
Robbie:Yeah, exactly, I will run away from someone asking me to get out of the car twice, but anyway, it was just. It was my adrenaline after that was pumping and then dumping, and then I was laughing one second and then crying and I had to, like, write a statement and do an incident report.
Jordan:It was actually kind of a big deal at first.
Robbie:Yeah, but yeah, dude, I don't know. It was just one of those moments where you're like this can't happen. One of those moments where you're like this can't happen and even though the threat was over pretty quick, I really felt like it. It wasn't a safe situation and he had to go. I wasn't gonna put up with someone um bullying anyone. I hate bullies. I was a bully, bully in school. I would like I probably gave some people some complexes, because if you were a bully, I was gonna just say the worst possible things to you.
Jordan:You know, um and it resolved itself.
Robbie:Person well, I don't even know what he said to me first to make me say that. So I need to message him. I feel I still feel horrible about that. Adam, if you're listening. Uh, I am so, so sorry, but anyways, um, what it is, it's one of those things I saw what made this like the whole situation.
Jordan:What I think made it worse for you, but also good for you, is that you were a hundred percent in the right.
Robbie:You know what mean like?
Jordan:some altercations, it's like through a different lens, maybe you could be like a. Maybe that guy had a point, but like you were defending the disabled guy. Yeah, that's no way you could ever be wrong, that's true that like, let you loosen up a little bit and be like yeah, big dog's gonna fucking show up to this one I that's hilarious.
Robbie:I didn't. I felt bad about swearing, because that's just something that I try not to do at work looking back on it, though I I would do everything all over again. That's the thing that I've had, because I've thought about this a lot, because, you know me, I'll get into an argument with someone and halfway through I've made their argument for them in my head, and then I'm immediately apologizing right away. Um and so I've been through this like a thousand times in my head and uh, yeah, I wouldn't have changed anything. So I don't.
Robbie:I don't know if that's a letdown from like the sneak peek from last week, but I had to give it a week at work to make sure no one even talked to me. I was like afraid I was gonna get in trouble for yelling and swearing in front of the participants and, uh, no one even like called me to get my side of the story. So what the fuck?
Robbie:yeah they just made a decision that I agreed with, and so I wasn't gonna push it either, so they didn't need me after that. They just agreed with my statement and we're cool with it.
Robbie:So wow that's good, and I told my boss right away too, because, and you know, after you have a moment like that, you're just like feeling like, uh, like captain america, like the most just person in the world. And so, because I called my mom, who was my boss that day, and then called her boss, the director, immediately to explain the situation, sir and uh, and I was like and I want you to know that I stand by my actions and I take full responsibility for what I did and what has to transpire after this if my actions are deemed. You know what I mean.
Robbie:It's just like yeah, like if they were deemed inappropriate, then I will accept any punishment that comes to me like I was just in the criminal justice system people are represented by two separate, equally important girls so it's funny dude mentioned the fight or flight thing.
Jordan:I made a joke saying I was complaining run I I've had a couple of moments in my life where I've actually surprised myself by my sassy attitude. That will come out in a spot where I just didn't expect it to come out. And I think of those moments often because it's not. It's not who I thought I was, but it does give me a little bit of nice feeling to know that if somebody's going to come into my zone, I'm going to do stuff.
Robbie:Stand up for yourself. I'm going to say something.
Jordan:There's this one guy, I think of all the time. So when I was in the warehouse job, when I got out to go into inventory, you're kind of like in a separate faction, basically like you. Yeah, I always thought of it as like a step up, like you're not a part of. I don't want to say like the grunts, but you're doing a different job and I'm under a new set of rules.
Jordan:I don't have to fucking listen to the other people. You know what I mean. I have my own group now and I would never, I think, take that in like abuse it. But one time we were supposed to always use um, uh, trucks, basically like the machines that weren't being used. That was our like edict was like, if they're not because we didn't have our own, we had to use ones that we had plenty to choose from. But we had to choose ones that weren't being used because of, like, a later shift or something and, uh, working there long enough.
Jordan:You know which ones are the cadillac of trucks and which ones are the fucking shit trucks that have been there forever, right the ford at the 2011 ford edges and so, uh, I would never want to choose one that was like, yeah, hand crank. Like, fuck that, I'm not, I'm not driving that thing, you know, yeah. And so one day I had to go to a different department to grab a different one, because there was only hand crank ones, and I was like fuck that, I'm not doing that. And so I got there and I saw one fucking from the distance, fucking listening. I was like this is my truck, it's not being used, I'll use it, I'll return it before somebody else needs it. It'll be great. And this guy who wasn't even, he wasn't even using those trucks.
Jordan:He doesn't even go here. He was like what are you doing? And I was like I'm grabbing a truck. And he was like you're not supposed to grab those ones, you're supposed to grab the unassigned ones. And I was like in my my head. I was like how, how do I want to proceed? Because I wasn't mad before this conversation and now he said one sentence to me and I'm about to rip his fucking face off yeah, like. And so I literally turn around and I was like what the fuck are you even talking about? He's like you're supposed to grab the, the unassigned ones. And I was like is this your truck? And he's like no. And I was like then, fuck off.
Robbie:And I was like and I don't even know this guy, I don't even know him at all and uh, you know it went.
Jordan:Whatever I grabbed the truck, I go, it's the ceo's son, I go to my boss later because now I feel bad. Yeah, kind of what you're talking about. Not necessarily feel bad, but I'm kind of like embarrassed that I let myself get to that era I got.
Robbie:You know that that area.
Jordan:So I got to my boss and I was like, hey, um, I don't you know, I don't know if I need to tell you this, but like this guy just was like having an altercation with me and you know, I may have barked back some words at him and might have told him to fuck the motherfucker off and he was like yeah, he already told so and so and he already emailed me about it.
Jordan:And I was like, sorry, I mean, I feel bad. I'm an adult, I shouldn't behave like that. But also I don't like when people tell me what to do. I don't like it, like unless they deserve to. If I'm parked in the wrong spot and somebody's like hey, this isn't right, I'll move for sure. But if it's like some random person like I don't like that and that's like I'm becoming more, uh, realization, I'm coming to that realization more as an adult, like, yes, I just want to do what I want to do and if it's not hurting anybody, leave me alone, please yeah, exactly I think about that guy all the time.
Jordan:I didn't say a word to him for the rest of my time in that building and then every time I have seen him since because now we're back I'm always like I wonder if he thinks about that moment yeah because I do and I was right, I think, fuck off, I think fuck off.
Robbie:You don't know me or my job.
Jordan:Fuck the fuck off exactly, and I forgot this one part. When I said fuck off to him, he was like now we're swearing. And I was like are you fucking serious right now? Like yeah, we're in a warehouse, bro. Like what the fuck are we doing here? Feeling out of the night? I get it.
Robbie:I mean, I try you try not to, but sometimes but god, it feels good, there's people that live their life like that dude dude like I have to be the most mad person in the world to talk to someone like that. I someone's just like shut up.
Jordan:God, that has got to feel good my brother a long I've told this on this pod for sure but my brother a long time ago, probably like 10, 15 years ago, was in this phase of prank dialing people. Yeah, he was like going to a website, it was like prank dialcom, where you put in your number and it would call you and have like a script where like a robot guy was talking and it would record the phone call and my uncle right.
Jordan:Yeah, my uncle, not my uncle, chris, my other uncle, the. The premise of the prank phone call was your, you stole my paper. I'm your neighbor, you stole my paper. So the guy's like hello, and he's like, hey, you stole my paper. And then it just has silence for you to like respond basically. And if it was me getting that phone call, I'd be like I didn't, I didn't take your pay, who is this like? What the fuck is like? I would just be confused. My uncle, I swear to god. The first fucking thing that that guy said to him was like hey, you stole my paper. And he was like yeah, how about you suck my dick? How is that your first response? Like yeah, how do you have a normal job and live a life? If that's your first fucking response to a total stranger.
Robbie:Actually, this is Father Bill down at St Mary's, and I was just joking, but now that you mention it, are you 11?
Jordan:I hope so. I think about that all the time, dude, that was his first fucking thing. So you're right. There are people out there that are just living on the edge, waiting to fucking blow up.
Robbie:We talked about that guy when we almost got into the golf fight. Like, those people just travel through life getting their way most of the time. Yeah, because most people are just going to be like, okay, fine, yeah, hit somebody with a chair, I don't care, anyway. Yeah, fine, yeah, hit somebody with a chair, I don't care, you know anyway. Yeah, it was. It was crazy and I feel like I've finally gotten past it. But, um, but yeah, crazy week. Um, brother, you've been going crazy on the socials lately. You've been making clips Listen for what it's worth kind of all clips of your funny moments on the pod.
Jordan:I mean.
Robbie:I'm not. You're the one making the clips, so it's fine. But I don't know if I don't have any bangers, or if you just don't fucking care about me at all. I mean they're good clips. I guess I got to just get on the website and do it myself. I mean they're good clips. I guess I got to just get on the website and do it myself.
Jordan:But it is interesting the relationship that you and I have, because sometimes when I choose the quote for the episode title, I'll say it to Steph, hoping that it gets a reaction, because most of them are ridiculous sentences.
Robbie:Like I just.
Jordan:I love for me. I love that. I love the idea of somebody opening their phone on Wednesday morning and being like what the fuck, how did they get to that topic?
Robbie:You know, if your nipples were sandwiches, it'd be ground beef or whatever.
Jordan:I love that so much. I don't know if everybody else loves it, but I think it's funny and so oftentimes I will tell Steph the episode title and one of her first reactions is always who said it? And I think, on a scale of me versus you, I think you probably have a 70% win share on the titles because I think you say some ridiculous shit at times. Sure, it is obviously funny in the moment, but she she sometimes gets to me she'll be like oh, you chose him again and I'm like what the fuck I?
Robbie:he had a funny line like what do you want from me? I guess he's my husband now, so that's fine whatever, oh, I'm escalating you once again, I think uh that's exactly what it is.
Jordan:So when I choose a clip to do, I'm trying to remember, like some funny shit that we said, and sure I'm trying to make sure it fits in a minute to that.
Jordan:Yeah, that's tough, that's a lot of our bits go on and on and on and it's hard to fucking find something. So I have realized that it doesn't take that much time for me to do and I think I don't know. Know, man, we don't do a lot on the social stuff. So I'm trying to maybe see if fucking somebody else can listen to this you know, and I'm trying to make a fucking story and like do all those things.
Jordan:And what's really funny is I posted four uh reels or whatever over the last like week. I did like two this morning or this afternoon.
Robbie:Oh, you did, I was.
Jordan:I only saw the one I was working, so okay yeah, I did two more and I was like you know what? We have a tiktok too that we like link in our fucking episodes. We never even touch. So I was like you know what, let me go to that and I'll just upload all the four right away and, dude, almost like a black mirror episode. I'm sitting here and I'm watching all four videos, get like 30 views in the first 30 seconds and I was like how the fuck is that? Even possible.
Robbie:This is our time.
Jordan:There's so many phones out there looking at this shit like that's crazy, you know. And, uh, I'm looking, I'm refreshing every so often. I was working on something else as well, so I wasn't really noticing. I was almost like I don't want to eat dessert right now. I wanted to refresh that screen when it's like ten thousand views on that one video. You know what I mean? Yeah, uh, none of them have gotten over 120 uh at this point. But of course, I was curious like they have all these like analytics for all these like uh users, like the content creators, and so I go to the analytics and I'm like let me see what this video is.
Jordan:Okay, this one specifically 120 views whatever whatever, it's only been on for a couple hours uh, the average watch time 5.52 seconds, which it's a minute long. So, oh, not, not great. Uh, not great and cool. I just started thinking like I wonder what like Theo Vaughn's TikTok looks like. It's got to be fucking hundreds of thousands of views. He's just rock hard looking at his analytics. It's got to be so cool to look at. There's a section that says retention rate and it says most viewers stopped watching at two seconds. Play the video below to see why they lost interest or when they lost interest. Yeah, and I'm like I don't want to be reminded why they lost yeah, they.
Robbie:They just hate the sound of my voice.
Jordan:I guess is that yeah, dude, I don't know, it is what it is. I'm not saying we need to get like famous overnight, but it just was making me laugh because I could see the benefit of like, seeing those numbers and being like oh my god such an endorphin rush yeah, yes this is so cool, but on the flip side of it it's very humbling to be like oh, two views great, and both of them are me perfect exactly exactly really really frustrating I will say um as someone who has gone viral uh yes yes, as someone with a tiktok that has 8.1 million views and 1.1 million likes, yeah, um, when that happened, yeah, it was like the best four days of my life, uh, I mean, and when sawyer was born, obviously, Sure, sure, sure sure
Robbie:yeah, sorry, second best four days of my life, but it really was crazy to watch that because it was an eight-second clip. Luckily it was a short video, so the retention time was good or whatever. Sure, sure, but I was looking at analytics too, and when those views start popping off, it's like I could have run three miles. You know, I don't, there was just something about it that made me feel so good and so you chase that. It's hard. Even 120 views is not. I mean, on tiktok, maybe it is terrible, but for us not posting for years, yeah, and then you throwing those up there. I don't know, we'll see. You never know what's going to happen. Uh, if barstool would just offer to pay us like 71 000 a year, uh, to make content, that would be fucking phenomenal.
Jordan:So yeah, yeah, dude, that's.
Robbie:That's really fucking funny, because I do remember that cheap video uh, yeah, if anyone wanted to just hop over bobby riz on tiktok, check out my pinned video this is so fucking funny.
Jordan:Actually, you mentioned this because I've been tagging people in the uh the reels oh yeah, because I think it's cool that like to let them know, I guess I don't know how to use anything like I'm 75 it's hard. No, I'm not even talking about that specific. Uh, what's really fucking funny is when I go to tag people I can't remember their fucking like gamer tag fucking names like something.
Jordan:You know what I I mean. Like it's hard for me but I'm like all right, I know, if I type in Rob, that should show me you. You know what I mean. What it does show me is Robert F Kennedy as first. What the fuck hey okay, listen.
Robbie:A guy missing half his brain is right up our alley. All right, that's the guy we need listening to our podcast, all right.
Jordan:The other one is Chris Shigoya. His name is like I can't remember. It's like Toro Poppy or something like that. I can't Torta, Is it? I'm sorry. I can't remember. I just know that it was like Poppy something, so I type in that and Drake's fucking champagne Poppy. I was like what the fuck is going on there? Who's tagging those people in these fucking things? Listen like we need to put them first on the list, regardless if they have friends with the same exact consonants in their thing.
Robbie:You know, like it's just true and you know like it's just that is true. And you know, uh, chris and drake are both certified pedophiles. So, um, just allegedly also just kidding, uh, please don't sue us, chris, you're not that, um. But yeah, I also would like to issue that public apology. One, lauren, I did not get crab rangoon on my way home. Um, I played basketball too late and I just couldn't stop. I had to get home and do the podcast. And secondly, sorry for fucking tagging you in. Uh, in the post it was jordan, please for the love of god, it was jordan, he didn't know.
Robbie:All right, you don't want people to know. You listen to our podcast. Neither would I. All right, so we can keep it a secret I texted robbie.
Jordan:I'm like, dude, I I try to remember. It's just like when you try to name your best friends on the pod, you're gonna forget people, like it's so hard. And so I was like I was just trying to remember people that we've talked about or that have said something nice about us. And I was like I think just trying to remember people that we've talked about or that have said something nice about us. And I was like I think you know, friend lauren, I think that's you know, I'll just look up and see if I can find that person. And I was like I think this is that person, so I just put it on. And then I grabbed a couple other people and then, yeah, she said a response that was like don't tag me in in this and like put a smiley face or something.
Robbie:I think I think it said hey comma, don't tag me in things.
Jordan:Kissy heart face yeah, I was like I texted robbie and I was like hey, dude, I just tried to tag your friend lauren and I think she's offended.
Robbie:I don't know what I did wrong I read it and literally I take it back, fight or flight. I'm neat, yeah, I'm freeze. I. It popped up and I was like. First of all, I. I was like because sometimes with the Instagram I don't know which one I'm getting a notification for I'm like is this personal or podcast and I was like shit, what did I?
Robbie:what the fuck did I tag her in and but she afterwards sent me a text because, well, I texted her was like listen, it was jordan, okay just it wasn't me.
Jordan:And she said that she was messing around um okay, well but it was pretty funny so and besides very seriously, and I was like okay, I'm sorry, I'll delete my instagram.
Robbie:Yeah, sorry, hey uh, hey, lauren from Jordan, fuck off.
Jordan:All right.
Robbie:So, all right, that's a good spot to end it. Dude, yeah, awesome, All right, gosh.
Jordan:Yeah.
Robbie:We appreciate you guys. Tidbits with the boys at gmailcom, all these no S's. Send us a time that you fucking had to, because I've got more stories about losing my temper with uh people and are so please send your messages about times you had to fucking lay down the law yeah, oddly enough, I think 90 of mine.
Robbie:Robbie was in attendance for yeah, and I mean honestly the story about the hand truck or whatever the hand crank I thought was going to end in you assaulting a gay man. So I mean egg on my face on that one, I guess. Or yours, ian McKeon, over here. Fine, okay, we got to go. We'll see you guys next week. Peace.
Jordan:Peace, happy or sad, it's story time. It's Dippin's with the boys.
Robbie:I actually I think it is mckellen after all this, you know what I think.
Jordan:So too, actually I agree that it's mckellen you know what it was. It was probably I was watching some sort of like video and somebody else pronounced it wrong and I just took on to it.
Robbie:You know what I mean.
Jordan:Oh man, I'm glad we got that out of the way, though I'm going to a convention later and I don't want to be looking at home and saying the wrong name.
Robbie:You got to know how to say Ian's last name it's in Reno.
Jordan:Yeah, that's, that's hilarious.
Robbie:We didn't get any messages this week, right?
Jordan:I don't think so, and you specifically ask for some. I think.
Robbie:Yeah, I try to yeah.
Jordan:You know I try to put myself in the lives of our listeners and you know the fact that they listen is amazing to us but also, like the fact that they don't listen is kind of annoying and I think we may need to have a conversation.
Robbie:Yep, and I'm happy to have it. So I'm fired up and exhausted. But yeah, dude, yeah, I just say we, I don't know, let's see, crabber and goons are delicious.
Jordan:I enjoy, I enjoy them. Everything else we can talk about next week.
Robbie:So, um well, I was gonna go to. Uh, what is it called? It's like asian paradise or something that might be there's a place over by, uh, the old piggly wiggly in antioch that I was gonna swing by, but I was told, uh, szechuan palace is really where the good ones are, which is also in antioch. So I'll have to go check that out, um, because I'm down to fucking sample some rangoon, okay what?
Jordan:what's your go-to order at a chinese restaurant?
Robbie:oh man, well, okay, it really depends. This place, uh, which it's sushi, is in Chinese, but this place has Asian paradise, or whatever it's called, has crab rangoon, has sushi. I love fucking sushi. Obviously, we've talked about it. I know you do too, but usually I just love a basic fried rice or some sort like vegetable beef or some sort of beef, you know okay, okay um, I mean, if we're going panda express, I'm slapping some orange chicken and some beijing beef the like fried beef, which is delicious, sure?
Robbie:um? And then just always as many rangoons as I can possibly afford. I'm like all right, I've got six hundred and eleven dollars in my bank account.
Jordan:I'll take 91 orders of crab rangoons so I think, uh, I think for me, I'm really like if I find something I like, I kind of just stick with that for the rest of my life. Sure, stupid. I when, when I was growing up, we used to play baseball in haynesville yes, and for some reason I don't really even recall, I have to like google map this, because this is before I had a license, I don't fucking know any roads yeah, um, we used to stop by and get chinese food from this place called hong k, I believe.
Robbie:Oh, by the old city.
Jordan:Oh, you just swung through. Yeah, not the country, or whatever.
Robbie:But yeah, is it a city, I think.
Jordan:I said city first time. Now I'm Ian McKellen.
Robbie:Yeah, sure.
Jordan:All right. So we used to get that all the time and like, as a kid, I don't know if it doesn't rhyme with happy meal, I don't fucking want it, you know what I mean, like exactly but my mom, I think, ordered beef and broccoli for me one time and that was good and I like that. So that's all I get pretty much when I go to a chinese restaurant, which is fine, but it does.
Jordan:It does. It does make me think like am I missing something? You know what I mean. Like yeah, not, but am I not experiencing other areas of this menu?
Robbie:because I'm too scared to go that way. Yeah, exactly there is.
Jordan:You are when we're in reno one of our I think it was like maybe christmas time in reno, uh mary roberts. Uh, I don't even remember how this even came about, but we ended up going to dinner with her and her whole family at this like nice chinese restaurant where it's like family style and remember a little old beef and broccoli me I don't know anything else on the fucking menu.
Robbie:Yeah, like I don't know what to order and so are there many corns in this like I don't. It was to order, and so are there many corns in this like I don't.
Jordan:It was a really fun dinner. I remember it was really good also. But yeah, dude, I I think I should probably branch out, but it bothers me that I'm gonna ruin an entire meal like if I order something that I don't like. It's almost like watching a movie I don't want to watch or that ends up bad like it's just a waste of time like why?
Robbie:why would you ever not just get what you know is delicious?
Jordan:yeah, that's where I feel I don't know. I get I've been burned. You know what I mean? We all. Yeah right, it just sucks.
Robbie:I don't want to be burned, son yeah, you've been hurt before, so yeah, I totally get it.
Jordan:But trust issues anyway, yep, all right, let's get out of here, let's get the fuck out. Thank you guys for listening. Enjoy the rest of your week. Supposed to be nice as fuck this week, dude, oh dude, can't wait golf, golf, dude we're golfing it's not around the corner, I can.
Robbie:It's knocking at the door all right, steph.
Jordan:Steph brought it up to me. I texted you and stuke the other day. She was like you guys should do, like a guy's trip.
Robbie:Oh that's right what I'm like. Am I allowed to go outside? Yeah, she was like you guys should do, like a guy's trip. Oh, that's right what I'm like. Am I allowed to?
Jordan:go outside. Yeah, she's like yeah, and so I was like, dude, we should do like a golf trip, like nothing crazy. I'm not saying go to hong kong or anything, or listen. Uh, yeah, go to like round lake beach or in china, because which?
Robbie:one let's go like an hour away. I will say that I brought up a golf trip to Stuke one time and he was like listen, if I'm going to take the time to have a vacation, I'm going to go with the woman I have sex with, okay. I'm not hanging out with you grimy motherfuckers on a golf trip.
Robbie:And so I was like well, why don't we go to a place that has golf and other fun things? And don't we go to a place that has golf and other fun things, and then we can also share a vacation with our loved ones and then just maybe pop out and golf early in the morning once or twice?
Jordan:Yeah.
Robbie:Come back. You know they could sleep in and then whatever. But so we'll see. I'd love to compromise that I would. Bro, you're barking up the right tree here because I've been dying or something like that.
Jordan:A guy at work after the Feed my Starving Children thing was like I was like, hey man, how's it going? He's like we're going to be golfing here soon. And I was like, yeah, I know, I can't wait. And he's like it's supposed to be nice on Tuesday and I was like I work, dude, yeah we have jobs.
Robbie:That's why we're here.
Jordan:Yeah, so I'm down, dude, it's going to happen soon.
Robbie:I might find a place to play nine holes tomorrow.
Jordan:We won't have to do any pod topics, because then we can just do a recap of one that we did.
Robbie:Back to golf talk, hell yeah.
Jordan:Okay, so I'm on the third grade and it's like sloping left. Yeah, dude, I can't wait.
Robbie:It'll be great. That's me yawning. I'm out of here. All right, we'll talk to you later, see you.
