Ever wondered how a Wall Street exec would fare at a music festival with no resources? We explore this unique concept for a 'Naked and Afraid' style show, challenging someone way out of their comfort zone. Also, we get creative with ideas for officiating a 10-year marriage renewal ceremony that the couple can barely remember from their original wedding. Trust us; you don't want to miss these shenanigans!
From the joys of fishing and feeling American to the chaos caused by a black bear in Wisconsin, we cover it all in this fun, engaging episode. We even dive into the origins of our podcast title, Meat Hammer Chronicles, and how it evolved over the years. So buckle up for a wild conversation with Jay, Tony, and me - where you'll laugh, learn, and maybe even rethink your next bad decision.
Phone Cases and Communication Preferences
Speaker 1You got to come back to three dimes. I'm here with my pals Jay and Tony. We're going to talk about some shit, So stick around and listen.
Speaker 2We basically talked about all of it on Tuesday, but we'll find fear something. Offered this today.
Speaker 1So for all of you watching on YouTube and Facebook, we're live, we're freaking live for you listening at home. You had to wait, so that's fun. We were talking about bad decisions. I got to break into this situation where I broke my phone.
Speaker 2Well you were talking about.
Speaker 1I was walking around naked phone for a week with a naked phone and I'm like this thing is great, with no case. It's like slides in and out of my pocket. Good, it's smaller in my hand.
Speaker 3Just feels sexy. Not having feels way better. Right, I'm like this is fantastic.
Speaker 2I'm like this is.
Speaker 1And then I started noticing like yeah, every single person has a case on their phone. Like nobody doesn't.
Speaker 3Right, i think I heard you import these cases from China and almost make a living at small street fair.
Speaker 1And I thought to myself like what's the scam? Why do we all buy these thousand dollar phones that can't even withstand enough, so we go out and spend between $6 and $23 on it or whatever, on a fucking case for the thing?
Speaker 3Dude, you can spend crock money on a case. So I got an order box for like 80 bucks a week goes by and I'm loving life.
Speaker 1My phone comes my, my car, my van comes back, repairs done, i can go get my case, but I'm like, no, i'm wearing. I'm wearing shorts tonight.
Speaker 3Like it feels so good in my back pocket.
Speaker 1I'm just going to slide this into my pocket. Not with the case. It's going to take up less space.
Speaker 2I'm surprised that's so much more room for activities. I'm surprised they don't make a crock case.
Speaker 1So I'm walking around all day I'm talking to my family about it. Hey, look at this naked phone. What a crazy concept.
Speaker 2I can see it's already cracked.
Speaker 1I fucking dropped it. End of the night called my Uber. Boom, got the Uber set up. I turn around to look for my friends. I go back to look at my phone to see what the name of the Uber guy is And it all went blank in my head. Dude, i don't remember what happened, but I if I picked it up off the ground and it was busted as hell. Busted as hell, yeah. You just see my phone completely shattered, won't work at all. It doesn't work at all.
Speaker 1Doesn't work, no display, nothing. It's on. Right now I can feel my thumbprint turn it on, but it's, it's, it's dead.
Speaker 3Try putting it in rice for a day. I'm going to tell you what.
Speaker 1So what I did is I was like I'll just call the fix it people. All right, they'll fix it, i'll take it there, they'll fix it, i'll come pay it, get up in an hour, it'll be great. None of them have the parts they need. They want 250 bucks Fuck That's by a new phone at that cost. But then I find online that they sell the fucking general, general authorized replacement part for the Google phone. So I ordered it. It came today. I'm going to replace a screen.
Speaker 2I've done that before on a phone, it's easy, you'll love it Yeah.
Speaker 1So I have. So you think I should do it tonight after I get back from the podcast.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, it's like a two beer job Two beer. A what A two beer job, a two beer.
Speaker 2Two beer, two beer, two frescoes. Yeah, so I have an iPhone and my iPhone went through my dad's snowblower and I still used it.
Speaker 3This is not. I don't even understand. How did it get? I don't even understand.
Speaker 1No.
Speaker 2Why did the snowblower? If you want to, even want to hear the whole story, i'll tell you really quick. I was working for my dad, yeah.
Speaker 3Tell it under 40 minutes.
Speaker 2I could tell you in under 40 seconds. I was in his car, came home from the job, got out of the car, fell out of my pocket into the snow. didn't realize it. He snowblowed his fucking driveway And then all of a sudden he was to the point where his car was smashed.
Speaker 1He's the hot car.
Speaker 2He saw something go flying And then I guess I realized my phone wasn't in my pocket And then I was like dad, i think I dropped in your driveway. And he's like, yeah, i found that's what went flying. So I went through the snowblower and it was totally fine. I just had to find it. That was the hard part. Is it shot at like 20 feet? You got super lucky because it definitely could have got.
Speaker 1I wanted to send it.
Speaker 3Can I ask you a question?
Speaker 1It took you 36 seconds to tell that story, by the way. So that was close to Does your father?
Speaker 3Does your father happen to own a Toro?
Speaker 2snowblower to beat the shit out of me. I think it's orange. Does that help? You should call him and ask him.
Speaker 3My phone is Toro. Snowblowers have their blades are made out of rubber.
Speaker 2No, this is, this was definitely metal. It went through a metal one.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, oh well, here's the good It could have got caught up in a chunk of snow and just chunked. But the odds, or the odds, or it's just an iPhone.
Speaker 3They make the outsides better because the inside sucks so bad, or it's an iPhone and you guys should switch from Android shit to iPhones.
Speaker 2I don't get that thing.
Speaker 1And I wanted to send the story. What is with the Apple people who are just fucking obsessed with people who don't have iPhones for some reason? I don't get it.
Speaker 2A lot of things very cultish work better. I was at the gym. I was trying to send you guys a text saying I don't want fries, french fries. I sent it to you like eight times. I kept coming back unable to send, unable to send. But I had like three other people with iPhone sending me texts. Perfectly, i can send pictures, I can send videos, whatever I wanted. For some reason, didn't go to your damn asses with the fucking androids, because he got androids.
Speaker 2I feel, like that's a you problem. Could have been, but the fact of the matter is, iphones communicate better And if you want to communicate with me better, get an iPhone. I'll stick with Android. Okay, that's why we don't you know, we don't communicate very well.
Speaker 1I got a group of friends are all in the chat and I'm the only non iPhone person in the chat. There's like eight of us or something in this thing is a text message chat And it comes. they say everything looks all fucked up on their side because every time I respond it's different and like it breaks up the chat thread somehow on their side and fucks everything up.
Speaker 1Yeah So they all harass me to get an iPhone. So there's like this online app apparently you can use that makes it look like you've got an iPhone. It sends an I message instead of a regular SMS text message which fucks up their shit. So I'm going to get this app and send them the message, and then they're going to be like, finally you got an iPhone, and I'm just going to say, yeah, i did So. They'll shut the fuck up about me, my goddamn phone.
Speaker 2I don't get it. I'm just trying to help your life out.
Speaker 1I don't understand why everyone cares You're not trying to help our? life out, you would have dropped.
Speaker 3Misery loves company. I think that's what it is. I'm not going to sit here and pretend like I don't actually own two iPhones that are both functioning. They're garbage.
Speaker 2So I choose Sam's audio on to.
Speaker 3We have our shop phones and iPhone, which which my wife can't wait to get rid of because it's such a hunk of shit. Well, you know, she has the iPhone before that, and I'll tell you why. We have the iPhone for our business. It's that iPhone 14.
Speaker 2I mean, if you have an eight it's going to be a little bit of a difference.
Speaker 3Not much. All they did was change the camera And the size you laugh with your fucking condescending laugh.
Speaker 2Wait, I wish the camera was on you when you do that, but it wasn't. It was on my fucking face.
Speaker 3You're your slow look away My iPhone. I really think I didn't make those. They've only changed the camera. Let's check. That's it. The guts are the same. They're still using iPhone three guts?
Speaker 2Yeah, probably, but you know what An iPhone is still better.
Speaker 1There.
Speaker 2I go, Chris.
Speaker 3That's your problem, man, Yeah that must be a Samsung camera.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's not an iPhone camera.
Speaker 3But the only reason we have iPhones for work is because, with US cellular, iphone has an exclusive right to Jesus fuck.
Speaker 1His phone rang and everything went down, vibrated and everything went down. We missed that on camera too.
Speaker 2Fuck, I don't know how long this is going to last.
Speaker 3US cellular has a visual voicemail that Apple has exclusive rights to Meaning.
Speaker 1it reads it off like a text message.
Speaker 3So the voicemails come in as a converted Chinese text message, because none of the no talk to text understands any. Wisconsin accent. They just they can't.
Speaker 1I don't know, the Google translates pretty legit. It could do not. North woods there.
Speaker 3But that's the only reason we have that, because all the voicemails come through in text and we're due for a new office line. And she said she can't even deal with the iPhone anymore.
Speaker 2Now she's been an iPhone and Samsung user, all right Well you know the first or 12 years now, first thing you need to do is get a new fucking Internet One thing I noticed is that people who don't have iPhones don't give a shit what other people's phone is, and people who have iPhones really fucking care what you're using.
Speaker 1Like we can just be walking down the street, your phone rings and if it's not an iPhone, people will spit at your feet.
Speaker 2Yeah, we care about your guys. The life's like your life is in danger.
Speaker 3You're like the pastor that dedicates his whole life to telling everybody how gay people are going to hell and you shouldn't get abortion.
Speaker 2I got a question.
Speaker 1I had a question, two things that don't bother him, none of you just minds his own fucking piss.
Speaker 3I had a question. That's always the guy who gets caught with a dick in his mouth.
Speaker 2I had a question asked to me. I was like if I was stranded on a desert island, what would be the one thing that I would want? And I said an iPhone.
Speaker 1I would have said my wife, No service.
Speaker 2There's so many things that it could do. It could build you. It could teach you how to build a fort You know. You could live off the land and learn how to fish.
Speaker 1You think you're going to be out there like hey Siri, Hey Siri.
Speaker 2I mean you get the first three days.
Speaker 3That is the fucking dumb shit.
Speaker 2you would do The three days I get, instead of saying I want a gun and unlimited ammo or a flashlight. What if there is no animals to hunt? You can't shoot fucking fish out of the water, you shoot yourself because you're so fucking miserable.
Speaker 3I want a scratch and I want a gun and one bullet.
Speaker 2So an iPhone would have saved a lot of people's life stranded on, Like you know, Tom Hanks in Castaway.
Speaker 1Gilligan's Island wouldn't have happened if he would have used an iPhone.
Speaker 2He would have. He would have married his wife and she wouldn't have gone to the doctor. And you know, fuck them over with.
Speaker 1If only one of them fucking packages would have been an iPhone for Well you know what they say about that movie?
Speaker 2They say that the package he didn't open was actually like a huge survival kit with everything he needed to survive, far as making fire.
Speaker 3Well, he did survive.
Speaker 2Well, he did survive, but to make it easier for him to survive.
Speaker 3I haven't seen the movie, but it looked like it had a happy ending.
Speaker 1You never saw cast away He pops it open and it's a fucking blow up doll that explodes out like a safety raft.
Speaker 2Ready for him. They find out on the ball.
Speaker 3My name's Jane, which is a big, wide, open mouth.
Speaker 1Dude, you got to see castaway. It's great, Oh man.
Speaker 2I saw it play about 400 times and I still fucking hate Tom Hanks, the only good thing he ever did was for a scum.
Speaker 1I think that might be the one movie that has less dialogue than that one of Sandra Bullock. We watched Tony.
Speaker 2One of your favorite movies is catch me if you can, and he's one of the main characters in it.
Speaker 3So you're not pretending he's not in it.
Speaker 2You're lying.
Speaker 3Croc wearing, i fast forward to only Leo parts.
Speaker 2How do you fast forward to win in the same frame?
Speaker 1Did it in it, did it in it. He goes, one night He goes one night for a second to keep Tom out. But Tom Hanks is like this, blocking Tom with his schnaz. What I closed.
Speaker 2really, tom's got to be in here. Come on, he doesn't need to be in here at this point. I'm just done.
Speaker 1Like what.
Speaker 3The diesel wasn't available.
Speaker 2The only part Tony watches that show is when Leo's character fucking destroys him and tricks the shit out of him and gets away with a fake badge. You heard?
Speaker 3that part. I watched the whole thing. I just pretend I'm somewhere else and I see Tom Hanks.
Speaker 2Like on a desert island, ridiculous Deserted Island in the middle of the ocean. Okay, so what would you, guys, if you had one thing?
Speaker 3What would you bring to a That's easy A gun and a hooker.
Speaker 2That's two. That's two. One thing Just a hooker then. Okay, well then you got to feed her and keep her alive.
Speaker 3No, because when I'm done with her she can turn in the food.
Speaker 2This fucking diabolical.
Speaker 1That is, keeping certain parts alive.
Speaker 2Just long enough. You're keeping her alive and just skinning pieces of skin off her and eating. Oh my God, i don't even want to. Okay, chris, you know what I'm going to go back to that one?
Speaker 1Yeah, probably be like an axe or a hammer or a multi tool.
Speaker 2Multi tool Maybe.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's one like a blade, nice long machete.
Speaker 3For real Mine, mine would have to be fire or a net. I need something to start fire. Everything starts and ends with fire.
Speaker 1Okay, I think I could start a fire If you don't have fire if you don't have fire, you're going to die from fucking malaria. Right, i can't even start a fire. You're going to be cold.
Speaker 3You're going to be fucking wet.
Speaker 2What's what's with dying from malaria? Fire starter.
Speaker 3Keep away, keeps away. Bucks Bugs won't.
Speaker 2Well, the smoke does, but I guess, yeah, you don't get smoke without fire, right Word. That's a tough one man, i don't stand in the air all the time Would you ever joke?
Speaker 1Would you ever do naked and afraid where they send you out? You get one item. You got seven days.
Speaker 3Yeah, i'd have to pack on some LB's, though I wouldn't want to go on in this shape.
Speaker 1You'd want to have a few to burn, yeah.
Speaker 3Get real round.
Speaker 2I feel like that would actually be harder to do if you were way overweight than if you were just in between, like kind of like you.
Speaker 1But you could just lay there and just eat yourself for a little bit. Your body is just like your body.
Speaker 2Well, you still have to get water. You can't live, that's true, without water. You can live for months without food, but not a lot of months.
Speaker 3Okay, at least a month I learned from a true prime podcast that you can actually live off of R Kelly pissing in your mouth. Your whole childhood Terrible.
Survival Reality Show Ideas
Speaker 2Terrible. That's so gross, terrible. But you guys watching naked and afraid shows. I've watched them, i've seen it. There's one called the last one standing, and this is the first one that are actually getting paid for someone being the last one standing, obviously, but actually so you just got to last like hundreds of days. No, no. That's what I thought they were going to do, but I don't know what they're doing. Everyone's supposed to be there for 45 days. I don't know how they're ending it.
Speaker 1It's still going out. The circle gets smaller and you got to move more towards the center and compete.
Speaker 2I don't know, but it's like one of the best naked and afraid I've ever seen, because there's one guy in there that everyone's fighting against which I love that guy I want him to win. His name is Jeff. Anybody watching the naked and afraid show knows what we're talking about. I love, i like him, i hate everybody else. They're all fucking bitches.
Speaker 1I've thought about because I go to these. I've gone to this music festival and I have a really great time, but I imagine how it would like a naked and afraid episode where you drop a guy from, like Wall Street, in the middle of this music festival for four days and give him like 60 bucks in a roll up sleeping bag.
Speaker 3Hit me at your woods gambling.
Speaker 1And you got to, you got to make it through the whole four days on that 60 bucks and you got to find somewhere to sleep each night. You got to and you the guy would document, or a girl would document it all you know like, and it'd be so out of their element because they're from like Wall Street, where $60 gets you a coke and a small, you know, a small bagel or whatever. You know what I'm saying. So what do you think of that idea, would you?
Speaker 2would you be entertained by that? I don't think enough people know what goes on in those concerts. They understand the meaning of being in that with such limited resources Yeah. I mean, i don't understand it. You telling me right now it doesn't make like. I feel like uh, so how many times do you say days? is this four days? four days, and if you leave your out, you can't come back? Sure, you can.
Speaker 1Sure, you could, but not in this show.
Speaker 3That would actually be a great series where every episode you took somebody and put them in their exact opposite.
Speaker 1Like total opposite environment swap on Chappelle show. Yeah. So now, instead of being, yeah, like undercover boss or whatever, where you're like you are a Wall Street broker making $14,000 a day, living on a high life lifestyle where everyone serves on you and there's the rides ready, breakfast is ready, water's hot, all the fucking, the whole thing. Chirps press the nines right And we put you inside of the ghetto, where you got $36 to last for you till Friday, where you get paid and it's $84 that you're getting paid and you have to navigate.
Speaker 2It's kind of like undercover boss.
Speaker 1Yeah, that'd be an interesting show. To take someone who just is willing to change their lifestyles completely. I guess it is kind of like wife swap, so it's almost worse where they put you in your house with some other random fucker who has all these rules and situations.
Speaker 3So I uh, where I hunt, um, we're a half hour from what would be considered a big city, and that big city is 20,000 people, so a small, a small suburb of Milwaukee, pretty much, um. And then the town that we hunt in has a population of 300 people and their downtown consists of two closed down restaurants. That have been many things over the last 30 years I've been going there, but never anything that lasted over two years. They have a hotel Which is A restaurant on the main floor and the second floor is a hallway with rooms and a shared bathroom. Now the hotel or the restaurant have never been open at the same time and Currently out of business. And then there's two bars. So the only place you have to go eat is at one of these bars.
Speaker 3So the farm that we hunt, that is about a six minute drive from downtown and We were talking to the farmers kid Who is in his 30s And He said, oh, what y'all doing today? said, oh, we're gonna go in to the bar and get cheeseburger and He goes. I heard they're real good. I've never been in the town. That's ridiculous, and me and my brother look at each other like what do you mean? you never been in town. He's like I never really left the farm. He's like He goes. And I was little, my parents took me into a city one time to go to a doctor, but I've never been in town.
Speaker 1That's crazy. Throw that guy in New York City or.
Speaker 3And that dude, that dudes. I mean he married his neighbor, but he's like a married dude with a kid, like they have their kids at their house, like Don't go to fucking doctors, they don't go fucking school. That's crazy is live in this fucking. Now take that dude and Give him six hundred dollars Yeah, like a big six hundred dollars and he's like, holy fuck, like I got a farm, 400 acres, for half a season to get this kind of cash. Yeah and tell me he's got a last one week without leaving Down town Chicago.
Speaker 1Oh, god, dude, you wouldn't make it. You wouldn't make it a week. No way, not in Chicago.
Speaker 3There's no way you'd be sucking dicks by Tuesday. There's no to get a hotel money.
Speaker 1There's no way cuz yeah hotels to get you for one, but you could. You could stay in like uh, what do they call him?
Speaker 2B and B.
Speaker 1No, where you, It's like a commune, but it's not a coming.
Speaker 3I can't think of the name Like a boarding house Yeah.
Speaker 1Where you like. You said where it's like three rooms, the share bathroom, share room. You get a bunk you rent out for $35. You get a bunk and a locker, you know, and there's a bathroom around the corner and there's four people, five people, in the same room halfway house $35 for how long? for a day They have those hostels. A hostel where you just well, a hotel room is 385 bucks and you get a queen size room and 312 square feet in a bathroom.
Speaker 3So I mean your life. You take a bunch of roaches home with you.
Speaker 1Your life's better. Sure, but you could do it. Take a bunch of roaches, but you'd have to sleep on the street, on the, on the L or something.
Speaker 2Well, as long as it's summertime, i mean do you got Mr Mr Flix's number?
Speaker 3Mr Flix, yeah, net Netflix.
Speaker 1No, I don't have them, but that's a great idea for a show.
Speaker 3Dude, we need to do this. Is anybody famous watching?
Speaker 1Yeah, there's a lot of famous people watching. They just don't like to comment. They're so famous.
Speaker 2Yeah.

Speaker 2I don't see anything I don't like. I see the people looking at me and if I feel like the night I entertained, So you freeze on Skype calls makes me nervous.
Speaker 1It's got to be my internet. It's not me, i swear.
Speaker 2Talking about Skype, we are. We're going to start bringing some guests in here to entertain you guys more, a little bit.
Speaker 1That's right, you had a guest.
Speaker 2I have, i have. I have one guy in the lineup that I don't want to talk about. Right now but I mean anybody. I just I think that we brought more to the show than just just scattering our stories. I think that kind of would you know, like next week we're going to have this, next week we're going to have that. I think it would help to create some It might be interesting to try it out, i would say for sure.
Speaker 2Well, we had the last time when the Tony and I talked about this, talked about it when you left and Tony was like this is the first time that I heard him say is like I'm going to be like. I never was into this J, but I think we started. we got to start bringing people guests in. Remember that? Or did you remember that? Or was I just drunk and imagined you saying that? Cause you're looking at me very stone face, like I have no idea what you're thinking.
Speaker 3Did I look like a unicorn when you said that Yeah. No, I remember talking about it.
Speaker 2You still do that? Oh no, we're going to do a little revamping. Why do you have jduborg in your hand? I don't know what this is.
Speaker 3Oh, that's from Chris, from last time.
Speaker 1Okay, i think your home is waiting. this website from my pen pal.
Speaker 2Okay, i got jworg and these mess with down. What's going on? No, i'll go back to what I was saying. Answer what I was saying. A question.
Speaker 3Um, yeah, well, I think, uh, i think a quick little revamp is is much needed. I think we reformat, restructure, rename and start from scratch with something even better than what we've done.
Speaker 1Meat hammer chronicles episode one is in our future, i think you still?
Speaker 2I mean, are you into that meat? hammer chronicles.
Speaker 3I mean, it was probably one of the best names I ever came up with. It's good.
Speaker 1I can only imagine the logos we could come up with Meat hammer chronicles. I mean, you could just use a simple meat tenderizing hammer. You could use a wood one, steel one, you could use the words meat hammer, you could do meat hammer chronicles, three words.
Speaker 2So first off the thing that I think about when I hear that name and I have no idea what the fuck me see. I'm thinking of guys that prepare or slaughter animals and and and feet or give them like a butcher or something like a butcher's podcast.
Speaker 3That's what I think of meat hammer chronicles or I just think a guy's talking about their dicks. I guess Yeah, If you want to look at that way you know, the thing is is when we were trying to figure out a name for this before I even knew you, before. I even signed up for any dating services or farmers only uh, me, jay, and somebody who will remain unnamed because he's a bitch. uh, texted back and forth obsessively for about two weeks. Yeah, and I bet you, i texted in 500 names.
Speaker 2Well, i mean that's a little exaggerated, but yeah, there were a lot. I said let's take it Sometimes dozens at a time.
Speaker 3No I don't know And that's the only name I remember and I'm the one who came up with three.
Speaker 2Well, you know, you didn't come up with three dimes on a text. You came up with it when we were all together in the room. Maybe I'm almost positive We were like you said it. You said it and we're like, yeah, that sounds fucking great. I swear to God, we were face to face when we were talking about it. Yeah, Well, that's beside the point. People don't want to hear that. They don't give a shit. Yeah.
Speaker 3Nobody gives a fuck about what. No, how this was created. No, not at all.
Speaker 2I mean the directions it's going especially the four years to do anything. Oh man, It's coming along man. I mean we're getting a little better at it. How come my shoulder looks like the guy from Snoopy?
Speaker 3This is funny because you say we're getting better at it, and then you immediately get distracted.
Speaker 2It looks like Charlie Brown shirt.
Speaker 3Slowly touching your shoulder, asking why it looks like Snoopy Charlie Brown.
Speaker 2I might think I'll bet you.
Speaker 1Puma's made a collab with Crocs.
Speaker 2The Puma croc. Maybe that sounds like a good idea.
Speaker 1I want to go back to this. I don't understand why crocs doesn't make other shit. I might buy a croc.
Speaker 3I searched up croc phone case and they don't exist. Why don't they make other shit They got?
Speaker 1the rubber They got, they could make, they got the name Like why couldn't these, instead of be cost, they could be crocs and they could be all foamy and full of holes.
Speaker 3Yeah, it'd be awesome.
Speaker 2I think it's this. You know it's the same thing that goes with construction. Don't be handy man. Stick with your good at. You know I'm good at tile. I ain't going to try fucking studying your walls or laying carpet. Stick with the shoes Tile stick, stick with the shoes, stick with the shoes. I mean that's, that's what's selling.
Speaker 1Damn going fishing this week, next week. That's why I'm not going to be here. Go in the ocean and the biggest lake.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's the only thing that would get me excited if it was the ocean, otherwise I probably asked me to fish all the time and I'm like you catch the same goddamn fish every time. It's just like a like a centimeter bigger, smaller fish.
Speaker 1That's it's fishing Eagle. Flies over, catches a fish I still don't really pack it.
Speaker 2Be careful, max. Some of those boats have holes in them.
Speaker 3Nothing makes you feel more American.
Speaker 1Dude, you turn on some Tom Petty on the Bluetooth speaker crack a beer, it doesn't even matter. Sure, i will Like what.
Speaker 2Bluegill or sunfish or like panfish.
Speaker 1three dozen of them a day, Yeah.
Speaker 2Three, you catch 48 of them.
Speaker 1Well, three dollars and 36,. But yeah, you snap them up all day, dude, it's great, i almost agree with you for like one second.
Speaker 3There was like one second where I'm like wow, jase, good at math.
Speaker 1I'm thinking to myself, like what does this guy think? I'm going to go out at night and do it too, instead of just the day. That is a lot of fish, though, no you snap up fish all day, so it's a ton of fun. You're pulling a fish off a hook every 15 minutes maybe.
Speaker 2I don't want to get in this debate about salt and fresh.
Speaker 1It's a blast. Throw a bobber on her. Pretend like you know what you're doing. Change the height of the bobber, get some deeper fish. It's great dude.
Speaker 2Take the bobber off, throw it down, grab yourself a catfish.
Speaker 1Go out on a boat not bigger than this fucking table, a little motor on the back of it.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's going to sink like my. It's great Situation in Florida. That would be great, wouldn't that be?
Speaker 3fun. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2The city you go to. The. Because it's underwater no, it's not, It's dry now, I think. I mean there's, there's dead people they haven't found yet. So that's an issue The crocodile or alligators, I mean?
Speaker 1I got pulled out to the ocean, bro. They got planktoned, planktoned.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Little itty bitty, bitty, bitty bites at a time got eaten up into fish food.
Speaker 3Yeah, they're much less than the mold people begin with. When they're in Florida that's a hot place to die.
Speaker 2You're funny. It's the retirement capital of the world.
Speaker 3Yeah, Runner ups Arizona.
Speaker 1Is it really?
Speaker 2Yeah, that's not my grandparents.
Speaker 1So yeah, going up North whole week long a little 500 square foot, two bedroom, one bath cabin with my in-laws. So not like this.
Speaker 2My wife, my kid.
Speaker 1I know this is like the eighth or ninth year we've gone. Apparently this is going to be the last year, though They sold the actual con, or like resort, as condos to people, so we might not be going up there anymore.
Speaker 2That's sad, isn't it?
Speaker 1Yeah, there's like a million lakes. It's been legit man. It's a pretty legit situation. But trying to think of what we were thinking about but it's too far away and too expensive. How much, i don't know. They were pretty expensive. They were pretty damn expensive?
Speaker 3Were they over 50 Gs? Yeah, they were up there.
Speaker 1They're nice And it's not really nice, you think a condo out. There is under 50,000 dollars Yeah non air conditioned furnace, small water heater, small bedrooms, small living room. I mean it's a cabin on stilts, no basement, crawl space, no attic. It's tiny, there's like 400 square feet or something.
Speaker 2So a storage building you get at Home Depot already made.
Speaker 1On a beautiful piece of land on a lake though.
Speaker 3What lake?
Speaker 1It's big St Germain, which is a pretty big.
Speaker 3St.
Speaker 1Germain.
Speaker 2Like Eagle River. how do you say St Germain?
Speaker 1Yeah, we stay there, like I said every year, And that's going to be sad to see it go.
Speaker 3But yeah, this should like St Germain Eagle River. Minak was all fucking crazy.
Speaker 1Super expensive stuff. But it's great What we do. It's great for what we do. We go up there one week. You pay a lot. I mean it's expensive per night.
Speaker 2Is that is your like? no, no, well, you have a mortar, so never mind, i was going to say no mortar like no, there's there.
Speaker 1St Germain is a big lake, it's a town, you can, there's people, but they're big fish lines with, like, all the fucking walleye hooks on them and fan out and fish Do that in that lake.
Speaker 2It's a big one.
Speaker 1It's a pretty big lake. Like I have a fifth. it's a 15 horsepower little boat we run, or her dad runs it. You better hope that shit ain't choppy. You can it's. yeah, i mean you can. you can maybe run the whole lake in a day and all I mean it's it's pretty big A day. I mean maybe not, but with this little motor if you just ran the coast all around it maybe I mean it's big dude You can run straight across it. Maybe I take you like 45 minutes though in this little boat, but you're only going like a.
Speaker 3What a knot in a half or so.
Speaker 1But yeah, these waves man. you look at them and you're like Oh, that's nothing. You get out there and you're fucking in. Oh man, you're rolling your weight in this little boat to try to keep yourself level.
Speaker 2So do you stay? you stay towards the shore. No, I go the waves aren't so fucking crazy. I fucking go right at it, dude, i'm pretty confident in what I got going on, but it it's sketchy as shit It's sketchy as shit.
Speaker 1But then what we do is we like to go to this one, like I think I can't remember what the fuck it's called Lake content. It's through the channel, through the, and it's just a short little channel, but it's just fucking mirror, mirror, smooth. There's fucking like 20 families of Eagles that live on this lake. They're every American Eagles, bald Eagles or whatever. They're everywhere. There's like 15 residents on this lake. Otherwise it's all just fucking woods. It's legit. It's a great place to fucking chill out.
Speaker 1It sounds fun, how far away from how many hours It's damn near in the UPS, so it's like five hours, five and a half hours north of here.
Speaker 2It's a haul.
Speaker 1So we leave Saturday, come back Saturday, spend a whole week.
Speaker 2They got, they got, so they got bears there and wolves Sure. Sure And coyotes.

Speaker 1It's one of the two.
Speaker 2You just stand up really high.
Speaker 1Brown bears want you to run, or the brown bears want you to play dead.
Speaker 2Black bears want you to run between a brown and a grizzly.
Speaker 1There's no difference. 400 pounds.
Speaker 3No, they're the same.
Speaker 1Is it the same? Yeah, i don't know.
Speaker 3Brown bear, grizzly and bear are all the same.

Speaker 1Yeah, where they live. Okay, so, like a poly, black roly poly, a potato bug, and a pill bug.
Speaker 3Black bears. Black bears are what we have in Wisconsin.
Speaker 1You should have done bear facts instead of pill. I just thought that was that was.
Speaker 2You know, i might have missed one of them or two of them, but I thought that was interesting.
Speaker 1It was kind of interesting.
Speaker 2I'll give you another fact next, in two weeks, since you're not going to be here next week watching.
Speaker 1Bobber's Bob.
Speaker 2Yeah, i don't know what you're doing. So you go on the lake, you go by yourself or you go with your wife, you go with your wife, your kid, you kidfish.
Speaker 1Kid will come for some of that She gets bored. She's like Oh, i think me back that kind of why would you stay out sitting on a boat doing nothing with mom and dad when you could be up at the cabin with your neighbor, friend and whatever else?
Speaker 2So yeah, So and then Tony is at his cabin, his trailer park for the. He's on vacation, middle class trailer park for for this week And he's like. He's like I had. I came here, I came here on vacation and you can't. We asked them. You're on vacation, but you're working.
Speaker 3So he comes in. I don't have a choice.
Speaker 2My request for off was denied, So his wife made him made a job happen the same time they're on vacation at their trailer park.
Speaker 3Yeah, so she's having a time of her life.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, that's just since hubby's not around even.
Speaker 2We could not get on the internet. We tried calling her. She did not answer the phone.
Speaker 3I saw she's having fun.
Speaker 2She just called you back 20 minutes ago.
Speaker 3Yes, swim times over now.
Speaker 2And then I saw Tony click on a couple options like what I'll talk to you later.
Speaker 3I sent her the quick text. I'm in an estimate. Call me later.
Speaker 2You send that one to me all the fucking time You asshole. Now I know you aren't an estimate, you dick.
Speaker 3No, when I send it I am, Otherwise I say I call you back bullshit.
Speaker 2No, you always estimate. You always use it like I'll call him at night. At night, i'm in an estimate, can't answer the phone, what the fuck? And I believe you. That's terrible.
Speaker 3I believe you, i'll start sending you pictures and other people's. I'm in an estimate. This is Diane.
Speaker 1See, that's, that's Diane. There I'm in an estimate. I swear it's still light in the house, i think you swear to God you had it automated.
Speaker 3for whatever I call it, just say it won't be weird when I ask my potential customer Can I get a quick picture of you? Yeah, one of my buddies doesn't actually believe that I'm in a stranger's house right now.
Speaker 1So I got to prove this is totally not weird at all, it's normal.
Speaker 2I think now I'm going to ask for it. Now I want to find out next time that you call, or prove it. I want you to And I don't ask you to, but now that you mentioned it, i want to prove.
Speaker 3So now I got to ask the customer Do you by chance have a copy of today's newspaper So I can?
Speaker 2actually know I want you to do is I want you to for them to hold up the tile or the selection they made for what you're going to do at the house. And if they don't have a selection, i want you to have a tape measure out measuring what you're going to be tiling. Otherwise it's not legit.
Speaker 3So my friend, who doesn't believe that I'm actually in an estimate, asked for a topless picture.
Speaker 1So I know we just met Mike, but I'm going to take my shirt off and take a picture of me.
Speaker 3You got a powder room I could use so I could get the right angle in the mirror.
Speaker 2Oh my God, i don't want to see that, just want to see what you're tiling. I swear to God, you're not. You're not in an estimate, or could just be like you said your fat thumbs. Wait, did you say that? or someone else say that?
Speaker 3Well, you did sounds like something that makes sense for me.
Speaker 2You did say you did text us a weird thing that didn't make sense, and Chris said that was just him talking.
Speaker 3He sent a picture of an order. I go, I'm not going to open it, but it looks fine Yeah.
