This week Dale and Amy get into a real debate over whether Noah's Ark was just found in Turkey — Dale's not buying any of it.
Dale recaps his trip to Vegas, his theory on where casinos hide the good slot machines, and why he hates weighted blankets. Amy admits to stealing her Kentucky cheerleading uniform, calls Dale out for being a skeptic, and questions why Vegas still has penny slots.
Plus, Dale and Amy's fall edition of "This or That" brings some strong opinions.

Many people are back in the office, but remote work is still alive and well. Unless you have spotty internet. In that case, you should look into Starlink. Starlink is a satellite space-based internet service that's available in your area right now. And it's fast. Up to 400 plus megabits per second in the US. It's great for 4K streaming, remote work, online gaming, smart home devices, and it's extremely reliable even during bad weather. Say goodbye to frequent outages. Order online in two minutes on starlink.com slash radio. The following is a production of Dirty Mo Media.
Oh yeah, this is what it's going to be, girl. We're going to hang out. Open a bunch of jars, you got big strong hands. Are you suffering from high crack? I'm working. Working that mouth. All right. Hey guys, I'm in the Dirty Mo Media studio for another round of bless your heart with everyone's favorite mechanic Dylan Harting here. He's stressed for work today. Yeah. Because he's got plans. Yes, I do. I have a, I'm racing lake models in Newport next weekend. My car is sitting at my shop right now without a part. From the firewall forward, it has not got a part on it. The clip. Yeah, the whole front clip is completely bare. And all the guys are racing at the big lake model stock race in Martin'sville this weekend, the 300. So all the, all the people in the shop are there doing that. And so you're going to have the shop to yourself.
So you're going to shop to myself. You're working on this car. I'm supervised. And I'm going to put the car, put the front on it. I'll buy yourself. I'm on the self. Is that possible? He's good. Don't you need like a, another set of hands, how do you list stuff? They could have done it in the past couple of days, but I told them not to touch it that I wanted to do it. I want to see it go, I want to put it back together. So when I go to Newport, I will have a good memory of what the front end settings are. And so that. So you can work on it just so I can have a better opportunity to maybe adjust it and make it faster. So you can work on it. Yeah. I get it. You want to, I want to help. So you're in charge of it. So you can like participate when you get there. And the late model stock car, the last handful of races I've ran, I've not really been happy at all with the way the car is raised and over the way that I've ran. So we, um, we cut the front clip off and put a new front clip on it. The car has been banged around. I've bounced it off walls and different things over the last handful of races.
So we just got to. You got something hanging on your nose. What? Good. Yeah. All right. But I, um, yeah. So I'm going, I'm going, I'm going to put. Go where? I'm going to the late model shop to try to get a little head start on getting it put back together. So I don't understand what the front clip is like. Tell me again. What are you doing? The front of the car basically from the firewall that's in front of my feet. Like for me, like a clip is like something I put in my hair. No. So the firewall is the literal wall on and right in, right in front of my feet between me and the motor. Uh-huh. Right. That's the far. What's that right out of? Steel. Oh. So the firewall is, the firewall is basically the same thing in your street car between you and the engine. It's a wall of. Yeah. I've never seen that. I've never seen what that looks like. It's just what it's called. I take my car apart. I know. But like it's the whole car. Like everything. I think you still got the thing in your nose, do. Really? Yeah. You're ****ing me.
You should probably fix it. Every time you breathe in and out, it like flies out and goes back in. Does it. Yes, it does. You can't feel it tickling your face. I won't take your picture. Nothing. I need nothing. I don't know. Maybe it's just my bad eyesight since I'm 44. Yeah. I don't know if it's bitter. I think she's messing with you. Yeah. Okay. So you're going to the late model shop. You're going to be all by yourself. Yes. What happens if you hurt yourself? Like what happens if you accidentally drop some thing on your finger or your foot or like you hit your head and fall down. Like what happens since you're going to be all by yourself. I'm not going to hit my head. Fall down. Are you sure? If you get on one of those little roly things and you fall off. Hope. You know, those things you lay down on your back and you kind of roll around the floor on. What are those called? Creeper. A creeper? What if you start creeping around and you fall off? I'm not. Keep going. So you're going to do that.
Yeah. So everything from everything in front of the firewall, there's nothing there. No motor or nothing. No suspension. So you don't have to put the motor in. You're just messing with. I'm just going to put the suspension on it. What's the suspension? That's the thing that tires bolt to the tires. Bolting the wheels bolt to. Yeah. The front suspension steering, arms and all that. Do you still have the thing hanging out? I see it flying out. Again. Yes, I do. It must be the fuzz from that shirt. You just saw. It's not. I look. There's nothing. You're messing with it, right? There's nothing. Yeah, I'm messing with you. You look cute though. I like your shirt. Matches your vibe. I'm going to go. I got this shirt out of the junior motor sports shop. It's $45. Right here. Coliseum makes it. It's got a little hoodie on the back. I like how simple it is. Yeah. It's kind of chilly outside. It came in in short sleeves.
Yeah, I did. I didn't realize that we had changed seasons. It was sort of abrupt. It did come back. It did come in hard, didn't it? Let's talk about our drink. We've got a really tasty drink sitting here. It's called the Apple Sider Spritz. You want to tell them what's in it? You obviously got one ounce of Hyrock vodka, two ounces of apple cider, and you put a little sparkling wine, maybe a little cinnamon stick. You don't have any garnishes. You have a little apple. Yeah, I don't do garnishes. You can garnish it with apples and cinnamon. And my glass is rammed too with cinnamon sugar. It's delicious. The only garnish that I like are little limes. And if it's a beer or a margarita only. So visit Hyrock vodka.com to find a bottle near you. Please remember to drink responsibly. We went over in depth what the store leucator is. If you don't already know, like they old, a store leucator is where you find the store.
And it'll tell you where the front one is. Web site has the store leucator on it. Hyrock vodka.com. It'll say, hey, there's a bottle 20 minutes away in this store. Go get it. You got to be 21 or over though if you want it. So speaking of drinking the week, this is in your notes. I know how that annoys you. But I just saw something this morning on social media where the NFL find two individual players. So Amy, this was dumb. Yeah, there's a there's a foot. It already sounds dumb. There's a football player for the 49ers and his nickname is juice. Yeah. So he had a sell he did something in the game. And players do celebrations. You really get they get a first down. They do the motion to hand motion. Well, this guy's name is juice. So he's his celebration there. As you see on the screen is he's just drinking some juice. He's just doing a motion of like he's drinking. I'm chugging a beverage of some kind.
Yes, an imaginary beverage. Yeah, I get it. So he gets this now on the Colts and apples. Colts scored a touchdown. And the receiver handed the ball to one of his linemen in offensive guard. And he pretended to pop the top and chug it like a beer. The football itself. And so additionally during the Cowboys commanders game. I believe the tight end for the Dallas Cowboys scored. And also did basically like a shotgun like he he popped the beer and turned it up like this to shoot shotgun. He did not did not receive a fine from the NFL. He did. And just to miss miss that one. But the 49er player and the Colts player all each had finds monetary fines for this celebration as because it was offensive. Why who are we offending?
Not sure. Alcohol's not even illegal. Like who are we offending? And why are they like if his nickname is juice and if we're drinking juice. He's not even holding a beer. Like he's not holding anything. It's an imaginary moment. Yeah. And then the other guy that sponsored my red light. The NFL has a stop. Oh yeah. The NFL has a beer sponsor of course. Somebody peed in that person's Cheerio's that morning and then they decided just to take it out on everybody else. Whoever it was. Like the guy that popped the top. He could have been celebrating with a sprite or a soda of any sort. Juice box. A juice box. Like yeah. That guy. I usually could give a sh** this. How ridiculous the NFL wants to be. But when they when they're finding guys for chug and beers and 49ers guy doesn't even drink beer. He's not you don't even drink alcohol apparently. He's like, you know, just not a beer. Pure. He's pure. He's just not a beer. His nick name's juice was less than just juice. It was less than just ridiculous. Yeah. Now their his teammates are starting to call him beer now.
Yeah. Which is funny. And they're photoshopped. Well, hey, I'm drinking and I read a tweet about this. And I just responded. What are we doing? And now my entire timeline is all of this. Yeah. From the players, the running back for the Colts. Taylor, he he he commented. Here's George Kittle. The players are commenting on your tweets. No, no, no, no. They're comp now. My feed is sending me all of the other algorithm. I got it. And so George Kittle, who's tied in for the 49ers is joking about this. His teammate who got fine. I kiddle on my team last year. Yeah. Kittle. So it's it's uh it's interesting. It is stupid. Do you see what NASCAR did? What did NASCAR do? Oh NASCAR jumped in on it. NASCAR jumped in on it. And Kudos to whoever did it. Let's see it. The National Fund League. And it's a photo of a couple of guys with beer. Yeah. I love it. The way to go NASCAR. So you got Cole Custer, chugging a couple beers as he does when he wins races.
And for them to say the national fun league. Like well done. Little little little flying pretty close. To the center. Yeah. I love it. Yeah. The National Fund League. Yeah. No, they don't have a problem. NASCAR didn't have a problem. Poking a little bit of fun at the NFL. I wish they'd stop moving their races around. Wait, what? Well, they they they they move the start times of their races because the NFL is so big and powerful. But I wish we you know we would have one o'clock start times. Like everybody really wants. Oh. But I wish it started at 11 a.m. Right after church. That would be nice. It would be nice. Right after church. Right after church started at 11 a.m. It's at a church at 11. The people go to church at 10. Is it? Church starts at 10 o'clock. 9 or 10. Yeah. The hell? One was the last time you. That's the bill here. Yeah. Back in my day when I was going to church.
It was from 11 to 12. Wow. And I assumed that. And they 1800s. That's when they did it. I assumed it still is. No. They have a service that starts at like eight and then they have a service usually that starts at 10 and there's Sunday school in between. So they changed it just like everything just like everything else. Yeah. My goodness. They changed it so they could get home and watch football. I guess. That's the need to change. Church from 11 to 12 just. It was fine. But then what do you do in the morning? It's your wasting a lot of time. Yeah. You get up and make yourself a, you know, egg sandwich. And hang out. Yeah. To 11. Speak of egg sandwiches, Amy. Rave reviews on your egg sandwich from Dale. This morning. Yeah. I've been cooking a lot of food lately. Instead of just waiting for people to figure it out for themselves. I've been cooking more. I made it to do yesterday too. Well, I've learned to be patient. Like I usually get up, run in there, grab some sort of a fig bars. There's always like protein bars and stuff like that in the pantry. I grab a drink and grab one of them bars.
And then I eat and then like a 30 minutes later, Amy plops down this amazing egg sandwich in front of me. I'm like, damn it. I should have not ate that fig bar. So now I'm going down there and I'm like, I'm not going to grab the bar immediately. I'm just going to see scope out. See how this place out. scope out the kitchen. See what's going on. There's always plenty of food. He just isn't patient, like he said. And so yeah, he usually uses up his calories or even over mediums over easy egg. What how do you prefer the egg on the sandwich? Don't care. Well, how do you prefer it though? I don't have it. Did you say in my belly? He likes it. So he, here's the thing I'm not good at with eggs. I don't like runny eggs at all. And he will eat a sunny side of egg where it's runny. If he's got toaster, whatever to mess with. I don't care. So I've tried to do that. And I inevitably pop the egg over time I flip it over. I don't like my eggs the same every time. Do a different. I love that. And you know, I don't really love scrambled eggs on a sandwich.
No, he doesn't. So I have to fry it up. I like my egg. If I'm eating egg sandwich, I want the egg to be fried most likely scrambled when I'm not eating on the side. I tried to fry the egg though and put it in a sandwich. And it was not cooked well enough. And it's like squirted all over a shirt. I don't care. That's fine. Okay. What's in the bag there now? Oh. Now I have a feeling you're about to all play a joke. Well, I just I kind of regret eating all of that. Not a joke. I kind of regret eating all of that egg sandwich this morning because I figured it'd be a good time for us to have. Is this the boat cheesecake? I have some boat cheesecake. But you said it was on a stick. Oh, here. This is weird. No, I get why Tim didn't want to try it. It's like this looks like it came from the gas station. Here you go. No, I need smacking on cheesecake in the microphone. No. Hold the stick.
We got salmoneel. I need this. It looks so good. Junior's a little fella. Yeah, I didn't even know that it was. They'll ask me to get you some cheesecake. I didn't even know it was Galbac. Junior's a little fella. And it's orange. It's got an orange label. Do you own this? And we don't even know about this. We don't have equity in this. It's awesome. Where'd you find this, Travis? The grocery store. It's at the grocery store. After last week, Dale said, hey, can you go get cheesecake to bring in for this week? Can you resourceful? Can we eat it at that very end? You guys, you can eat it. I will lose it. That'll be like me wearing all this jewelry around my neck. It's you starting smacking on this. In the microphone. It's cute, Junior's a little fella. Yep. Cheesecake. Are your ad campaigns lighting up the dashboard? But not the pipeline. That's bullspend. And marketers are calling it out in dashboard confessions.

We're doing the show day late because I had to go to Vegas for our friends at Arbys. And I mean, Stefan went out there. I was supposed to go out there, do the thing, come home. But the weather here was a little, a little bad.
So the ceiling was super low. And we decided to spend the night. And we stayed at the Cosmo. Politan, it was awesome. What do you and Stefan do when you have free time? All right. So we got there. Great question, Travis. We got there. We did a Q&A on stage in front of a lot of Arbys owners. And that was fun and easy. And we got done and went over to the Cosmo, checked in through our bags and our rooms. And I'm at downstairs. We go to there's a bar called the Chandelier bar or something like that. Dead center, the casino. We had a beer. And we went upstairs to try to get a reservation later for dinner. So we got a reservation at the sushi restaurant upstairs. Then we went over in the Cosmo. There's a little food court. It's very similar to what you'd see at a mall back in the day. At the very back of the food court, there's a door you can go through into a
speaky or a hidden margarita bar. It's the best. Have you been in there? No, it's really small. The margarita is really good. I haven't been to Vegas since I've been 21. Really? The margarita bar is about the size of the booth here. It is. It's really small. I mean, it's maybe twice that size, but it's very small. So we sat down and we had two margaritas. We got pretty tuned up there. That explains the text messages that were redundant. We already talked. I already knew Dale was staying. I never mind you that I was there. He just really wanted to do his duties. Hey, because of weather, Stefan and I are staying. I'm like, I'm aware. We are fully planning for all of the things. We're good. So we had a couple margaritas and then we went downstairs and played some slot machines and then they had this little machine. It's really big and you sit around it in a circle and play relette in the relettes in the middle. Now you can go to the board and you can go to the relette table and play. I played a little bit of that, but Stefan wasn't comfortable playing relette at the table because he'd never played before.
So we went to the machine and where it does it all for you. And we sat down and played a little while. That was pretty fun. And then we went over to the sports book and played the little poker table, video poker on the on the on the bar. We did that a while. Play a little blackjack. And then we ate. Where did you eat too? I mean, you said it was a sushi joint, but like we're in the restaurant. Did you eat? Oh, so I walk up to the video screen. And you got this little QR code you scan to do your reservation. And I just said seven o'clock, Stephen, he goes, yeah, it's fine. All right, man, two for seven o'clock. Send it in. It's it's in you an email. You got a reservation for seven for two. Okay, great. We show up. I walk up to the the desk and say, heck, here for Earnhardt table two. She goes, all right. And they walked us over to the bar.
Yes. So it's down. I love it. We're romantic dinner for two sitting at the bar. Who would have thought that was acceptable? Well, we were I didn't mind because we were facing the grill. And so we got to watch like right in front of us. This guy's making it making apps and stuff. And this is like dinner in a show at the bar. Yeah, this guy's over here. And they're very it's you know, it's Vegas. They're things like perfectly put together. And so we're watching this guy make this stuff. And then these other guys over here are grilling steaks. Throwing **** all over where. I'm like, man, this is badass. These guys are these guys are really good. Bad ass at badass dinner at the bar. I mean, it could have been more in the hill. Did that happen for you? It wouldn't better though if it was some of the stuff in out of booth. Well, they were. There was some folks that they were. I had it was a person sitting right next to me. You know, I didn't firt, but they were fine. They didn't talk. He sent me the picture or video actually. He's like, look, look, look, we're meeting.
I'm like, I immediately get jealous. And like, you're at the bar. You'll do that with Stefan. You wouldn't eat at the bar. He's like, I don't have a choice. Yeah. Like, well, I didn't ask for the bar seat. I thought they would put it to the table. We walked by lots of tables that they could have set us down at. No, it's they because people for fur to sit at the bar. Because there's something to watch. And it's like casual. They didn't know. It would have been awkward if you and Stefan who are not dating had gone and sit in that like a two-top table in a restaurant versus sitting at the bar. Right? That's a pose. I don't think so. And it more normal for two dudes to just go sit at the bar together. Yeah. When Kellan and I go get, like, we're probably going to go get drinks and whatever later food and like, we're going to go sit at the bar. Yeah. Okay. It feels like casual and normal. I didn't firt, but it's how it went down. Food was insane. And I got a, I got a crab meat salad thing. That was pretty good. And then some steak, some beef.
That was really awesome. And Edamame. Edamame. Yeah. Edamame. Anybody else say it like that? No. How else do you say it? How do you say it? What doesn't end in a why? Edamame. Edamame. Edamame. I'm all for giving Dale Crab. I think this one we're going to have to side with him. Edamame? Yeah. That's how I say it. Yeah. No. Edamame. I think we talked about this before. I feel like I'm, there's a few. We've had talks about your pronunciations before. Yeah. Plenty of those. Well, we got done with that and we went back downstairs and played the slot machines some more. And I was... Yeah, I think you still, that thing's coming down. And so, and so, we were sitting there playing slot machines and there's a couple of observations that I had.
So the Cosmopolitan's awesome. Every time we go to Vegas, they always take care of us. And we were, we decided that we're even staying the night last minute and they made sure we had a place to sleep. So, but things have changed in Vegas. So I don't go this much anymore and God, it feels like a long time. I know it hasn't been, but it feels like forever since I've sat on a casino floor playing slot machines drink a beer. But there are at least this particular night, there are, when you go sit down in a slot machine, what's the best thing about, aside from winning money? But say you know you're gonna sit down and you're probably not gonna win any money, but you do it anyways because it's free drinks. Well, I remember as long as I've been going to Vegas, like, man, you, they'll ask you if you wanna drink every few minutes. Like you get hardly keep up with it. Yeah. And you're like, you know, you never,
without an opportunity to drink a beer or whatever it is you wanna have. Well, I would say that there were far, far less waitresses walking around offering drinks and on the entire floor, I might have solved two dedicated waitresses to the slot machines. And so you had to like, instead of like sitting there playing a slot machine, you kind of had to have your be turned around looking for her to come back through. If you wanted to flag her down and try to get you a beer. And so what they have replaced all of those service for with are these folks walking around asking if you wanna massage. Now there were many. So for every waitress, every waitress walking around trying to say, hey, man, you wanna drink? There were two or three folks walking around offering you
like a neck or a shoulder massage. They must have a lot of people just sitting there for hours on end playing. They don't want them to get up. Like I don't mind the idea that, hey, man, you know, maybe people would like massages. They're sitting here playing hours and hours. The waitresses, there should be outnumbering a massage therapist for sure. Like free drinks. Like that's why I sit and play sucks. Cause I'm the loser in my ass here. He was sitting there playing the penny slots too. He sent me a picture of his thing, which you're not supposed to take pictures of. You're not supposed to have your phone out, but he sent me a picture and I was like, is that pennies? Cause the number was huge and I had to assume it was a penny slot. And he said, yes. And then I thought, well, I feel like that's super weird because they don't, like pennies aren't real anymore. Like pennies aren't real money anymore, right? Yeah, but you're not putting a penny in. I know, but like the value of the penny. Amy believes since they have done away with the penny that they shouldn't have, penny slots shouldn't be a thing anymore. The kind of that doesn't make sense. How do they pay you out?
I mean, I know you're getting a ticket, but eventually you have to turn it in for money. That's what happens, Travis. Like you get the, you go to the counter and they give you money. What if there's pennies? This is a rough take, ain't it? What if there's three pennies? And what do you do? Donate it, round off. I bet I'll be damn if I'm printing that. Flip out, I'm just gonna get up, leave. Not just three pennies, you'd be stupid. They still have like, there's still like circulation. They take not three pennies slip to the next machine. Also, how many people are getting the money in? Like you can get it in, you don't have to get cash. Well, so no, it prints you the ticket, but then you take the ticket to the cashier and then they give you the cash. So what I'm saying is if you've got like a thousand pennies and thousand and three or whatever, like what happens with the leftover through, like what happens with the penny pennies? Pinnies are still in circulation. Are they? And it's the last time you use one. Well, I have, I don't know, I've never used a dollar bill either, or dollar bill is not in circulation.
No, but we already know they have gotten rid of that yet Travis. But like, you're still, nobody's putting a penny in, so you can still have penny slots. Yeah, but I still think it's weird. Like if we're gonna just get rid of it, like Pluto, like we got rid of Pluto. But the only way that a penny is even gonna come to matter is if it's one, two, three, or four, like if it's like, right, like you're, so what happens then? They have pennies. Do they? Somebody help us. Do they have pennies? Oh, there's still pennies out there. I know that they're out there. No, I mean, if you go up to the cat, if you go to the cash register to gas station, man's got pennies to give you if you need them. We've got them Vegas though. They don't do anything. They don't have pennies there. They don't, they don't handle, they don't mess with change. I'm guessing a lot of people get their money back via like their card that they're using or whatever, like how many people are like, you can't do that. Can you do that? Well, we need to take Travis to Vegas. I try. I full on expected you to have real experience
in a place like that, considering who you are and what you like to do. I play the penny slot. Amy will make it fun to me. I won $600. How much did you put in there? $100. And then I lost it. He always loses it. Vegas always wins for days. You can ask Stephen, I was up 600 bucks. So I lost it and then I went to another machine, another penny slot machine and I made another 600 on it, but I kept it. And then you put it in my pocket. I brought it home. But the other thing I was thinking about, now y'all tell me this. So I asked Chad about this and Chad said, there's no research that would say this is correct. But I do know this. So if you own a casino and I wanna hear everybody else's opinion about this. So if you own a casino in Vegas, there's rules.
They have a commission and they make sure that they come there and audit your machines and they make sure that your machines are paying out there's a range that your machines have to be in in terms of payout. You can adjust the machines. They can be super strict and not pay out anything. They can be just giving all kinds of money away. So you can, obviously the software in the machine can be changed and adjusted. Not every single slot machine has the same odds. And so but the commission make sure that they fit in this little window of giving the consumer a fair chance and they go to the casinos and they audit the machines and run checks and balances to make sure that the casinos are all on the up and up. Right. And so I believe that and I was telling Steve in this that he was down on the floor. I said, man, we need to find the machines
that are tucked away in the corner that have the worst foot traffic. Like if I'm a casino guy and I don't like to see no and I've got to have these good machines on the floor, I'm putting them where they know body really messing around. And so all the machines that don't pay shit, I'm gonna put them where they're easiest to access. That's actually, that that seemed like that's logical smart. Right. But Chad said, now there's no evidence. This does make sense. Yes, it's good theory, but there's no evidence. And I'm like, I don't know, man. So the two machines that I played that I made 600 bucks a piece on sending there for only about 20, 30 minutes a piece. Playing just pennies was way, they were, one of them was way in the corner besides these two double door like sketchy looking exits. Like if it was a place called on fire, that's what you'd haul ass to that. What one of the emergency exit?
Yeah, it's like an emergency exit. The sketchy exit is the emergency exit route. Well, I was sitting there. That heavy fire door. Like if you hit it, the fire alarm goes off. I was sitting there playing in the, like all kinds of employees of the casino were walking past me to go through this one door. So it must be like, oh, it's like the access exit. The way to get behind the curtain, so to speak to go to the break room or whatever, use the bathroom. And so I was in a, it was a real place to sit if you were just kind of hanging out like a casino trying to have fun. This slot machine was off in the corner somewhere. And so I think that's true. I think that they put the goods slot machines in the most least likely place where somebody's gonna sit down and go, man, this is great. I'm gonna sit here and I'm gonna enjoy. You know, I mean, that's why I didn't get many free drinks offered. Because I was just in the middle of a casino. I was probably over in the real stories. I was hiding, they weren't hiding. I was the one that was hiding. The matrices couldn't find me. I did some research and Las Vegas review journal
has an article about the pennies. And a representative said, and pennies are unavailable for payouts. Amounts O to players would be rounded up to the nearest nickel or dimer, regardless of the amount. See? No pennies. They're like, we're done. Carry on messing with those stupid things. So, if you want, you know, you try to, you know, you could do a scheme where you landed on like three pennies and make two pennies every time you try to cash out. Yeah, no bad. You can't go back, cash out. Two pennies. You could make like 10 cents if you sat there on a... You could run a gamut if you've got millions of people to do this. They'd probably run you out. Sir, we're not cashing out for 13 cents here. The pennymeister. Well, I had fun. We were, we were yawning at 9.30. I was asleep in my hotel room by 10. Well, I mean, it's a long day. It's one day flying all the way out there. It was 12.30.
It sucked. It's your body, you know? Yeah, it sucks because I was awake again at 3.30. Well, I gotta take, I went to bed, cause just like Travis said, you could start to get in really chatty. And I was like, I'm gonna just gonna go to sleep. And I woke up this in the morning. I just get the girls ready for school at 6. And I had texts from him at 2 o'clock in the morning. Like 10, 11.30, 2 o'clock in the morning. Like you were, it sounds, it felt like you never went to sleep. Well, there's a three hour time difference or two hour time difference. I know, but the text came through in those increments like where it looks like you had not been to sleep. Now, we went to bed and I woke up at 3.30 and it was miserable. Waking up in a hotel room in Vegas at 3.30 and not being able to go back to sleep. Well, then you just go back down and place them more. Yeah. I guess I could have. That's what you used to what have done. Yeah, yeah, that's true. Old school party day I would have been. Lost it. Raising hell at the roulette wheel. Lost it.
I sat there and tossed and turned and bid till 5.30 and then I finally got back to sleep and got up at 9 and headed to their port. Dale doesn't have his fastball anymore. I don't know. He tried to talk me into going with him and I was like, I don't think so, man. And he's like, because you can't hang with me. I was like, I can't hang with you. But Vegas, no thanks. I would be dead for three or four days after that. Because unlike Dale, I don't drink beer. I'd start drinking margaritas and then stay in the throttle and then I'd be hung over his hill the next day. We had those two margaritas at the Speakeasy and Steven wanted to have a third and I was like, dude, I'm gonna be really f***ed up if I drink a third margarita. Pretty. They're strong. Yeah, they're strong. They're very good margaritas. Margaritas got me careful. I have drank 10 beers and I'm totally fine and then put a margarita on top of that and have. And we're heavy footnet. Yeah, we're good, shovel. For blowing out our flip flops. Yeah, we're crashing.
I took the kids to eat at the new restaurant that night. We were supposed to go. So we, there's a place down how Moore's called Deepwell and it just opened. And it's owned by the Kindred family, which has other restaurants around. And so I got a reservation. They're very busy. So I didn't want to cancel the reservation because I was really interested to try it. So I took the girls and Aunt Jamie met us. And it was a very tasty dinner, but it was leisurely. We were there for two and a half hours and it was busy, I saw. All of these young race car drivers coming in as we were leaving, of course, like it's normal dinner time and the young people are coming in to eat. So I sent them dessert to their table before we left. But the girls wouldn't even talk to Connor. How old are the young drivers? Yeah, well, you can't really. Connor is ill, it's yeah. He walks in and of course, the girls know who he is. And he's like, hey, he's talking to them. He says so to me, but he's talking directly to them. And both of them just look at him and like, like hunker down. That's what they did. And he's like, do you all not remember me? It was really cute.
But yeah, we sent them dessert. And then when we went to say goodbye Nicole refused to talk to him again. But they give out toys. So most restaurants don't do this. But like old school cracker burial style toys, like the little peg game that you can play. And then they had those waxy wires that you can mold and do stuff with. When Nicole got those out immediately and made a pirate mask out of it. Very well done. I had the whole and everything. Had it wrapped around her hair or she'd hang with that sh** her hair. So like, just about as soon as we get there, I'm pulling wax, like balls of wax out of her hair. Chunk's a hair flying out of her head. It was, it wasn't loud, but it was enough of a scene that we were all just nervous that the rest of the dinner was gonna go haywire. But it went pretty well. It was good. It was a good night. The restaurant was good. I'm glad I didn't cancel it because I don't think the next reservation that's open is till like the middle of October. It's a pretty popular place. So it is. It's really popular. We were sitting at the, sitting on the couch last night.
Amy looks over and goes, you heard about this Noah's Ark thing? I was wondering what this is. Do you know? No. You haven't. Oh my gosh. This isn't new by the way. They've been doing scans and they feel like they've found the actual Ark buried in the ground and turkey. Like, they've done some soil samples. They've dug down. They have found organic matter which they can think they equate to it being wood. So they're assuming and guessing they found the Ark. Well, now they're going to try to excavate the damn thing out. Dale thinks it's all bull. Uh, easy. So that's exactly what you said to me last night. No, no, no, let me just, just Dale thinks it's bull. It's a bit of a blanket term. That's going to be the podcast. I know it. I know it's not entirely how I feel. He looks at me goes, Amy, Amy, it's bull. I can't believe that you even bought your buy-in into this. So it's like, how are you not? T-Rex is real. Is that dinosaur skeleton just bull? You like, what I mean, he and fine stuff. What I mean is, so they've been,
this site has been, um, this speculated, there's been speculation for a decade or more about this particular, um, feature in the landscape. Yeah, in the shape of it. Yeah. And they have done some, they've done some sonar or some land, you know, they've done some things to where they kind of can, you know, can, can look down in the ground and they've seen things that, you know, are unique. Um, but what, what I read say five or eight years ago was getting in there, getting into this area to actually do real research would be difficult due to the complications with trying to get into Turkey in general for anybody, right? And so like getting to the property and being able to really truly do this well was going to be a challenge. Um, and so that was not a lot of it.
You know, there was not a lot of expectation that it would ever really get truly looked into. And plus the idea that that could actually be the arc was one in a million. Um, it's a, it's a land feature. It just look, it's a land feature that looks like a boat. And so, um, this happens to be shaped like a big jagged in it canoe. And see, doesn't it sound like he thinks it's all. But this is the thought five, 10 years ago. Okay. You know, you see something coming from, you know, the internet and everybody, and everybody goes, even the people that were, that were there, um, poking around were like, this is obviously, you know, a shot in the dark. But the thing that is neat about it, I guess, is its location. And, um, so there's a lot of, there's a lot of things in the area geographically, locations, uh, in the biblical story, all of those things that
point to the space. Yeah, point to this area. Um, and so in the last, I guess now, for whatever reason, it's this thing's kind of fired back up. And maybe it is because they are actually finally able to get there and truly do some genuine research. They're drilling down in the ground, trying to pull out, um, course samples and stuff like that to, to see if they can find, you know, wood or anything else, right? And they're, they're saying that they're finding maybe pitchfried wood, things like that. So they're, they're now there. They're finally there real researchers with real equipment, real, real technology to be able to see what this thing is. So I don't think it's, I'm just saying they haven't found anything yet. They're just now, you know, digging into the ground. So let's all come to the break, sit back and, I know what I think that that's so fascinating. If that's really, well, that was there, obviously we all want it to be real.
That was me five, 10 years ago when I first heard that was you five day a minute ago. That was you yesterday when I brought it up. You were like, you for the way you close your eyes even, you didn't even look at me when you said you what your response, you're, you're, you're reaction to it. Now that was me five or 10 years ago when I first heard about it. I was like, oh, wow, that's amazing. I've been reading about it, but the fact that they're actually drilling down and getting, or getting material, like they're, they're, they've got change. Nothing for me until it doesn't, how we, we're not going to be able to get the whole thing out of there. I don't think it's petrified. I think it's been in the earth so long. Like it's not going to be like a bone you can dig out of the ground. Of course. I'm just saying, even though they're there digging, it changes nothing until they know for sure. I'm not, I'm, I'm going to be like, man, it's a shot in the dark. It's a one and a million. It's, it could be nothing. Well, I want to believe of course you do. Yeah. But I, I'm not, well, you negative. You're just negative. I just want to, I was just waiting to see what happens. I'm on the ill side. Really?
I mean, I mean, just a little, pretty good today. Did you Google it to see the shape and the size and everything? Like there's far more like, even with all the physical stories and the size. It's convincing. It's somewhat convincing also with the location and all the, the age of both they're fine. Shape and it's giant. That's enough. I couldn't even know I'm looking at this one. It's a little purple by in. I said I want to believe. I mean, I'm going to wait and see how it plays out too. But dang, I am not going to go. This is complete bull. It's probably full of unicorns. Like the, the responses I'm seeing on the internet are all over the place. Like, oh, yeah, maybe they're going to find the big foot too while they're down there. Like it's just nobody wants to believe in anything good. Everybody believes all the bad. They see on the internet. I just feel like it's, it looks too much like a feature. A land feature just looks to look. And of course, it should. I mean, if it was a, if it was a real boat buried in the ground, that's sat there for all of these years.
Yes, it would sort of the earth would just take it back. And it should look even, you know, if it is the arc, it would probably look like a land feature. But the one thing that, you know, is like, if you're, if you're, say this, this is the arc and they get off this boat. Common sense tells me that they would have taken this thing apart. They would have needed this for resources for, they, and maybe not. If it's, if it's up on the side of this mountain, maybe they're like, yeah, we're not taking that apart because I ain't hauling that shit on the mountain. We're going to go down the mountain. We're going to find wood. We're going to build, we're going to cut trees down. But the arc itself would have been a resource to these individuals surviving this flood. They would have dismantled this thing to, to utilize it for other means with what dismantled it with what they built it with tools. I'm sure they had tools. No, we built the damn thing. I know, but I'm sure they had the tools with them on the boat to continue to, you
know, maintenance while the flood's happening. I don't know. Maybe they got lost. Maybe they did. Amy, but I'm just saying like for it to just, for them to just walk away from this gigantic thing and just leave it there. Maybe they were scared of it. Sounds incredibly. Because the flood came and everybody was like, Oh my gosh, it's real. Now you sound like the people that don't believe the arc, it even exists. You're, you're, you're so pretty. Well, I think it's fascinating. I am following the story. I am curious about it. But I am just that type of person that will not believe anything. He's a skeptic. And I'm not a skeptic. I just don't believe. I don't, I don't live on hope and, and dreams and, and wishes. I like, I need real proof. You are the guy that decides he wants to hope and dream and wishes life into a new space when he travels. Like, how is it that you're not going to, what do you mean by that?
I'm sure. So we're going to Switzerland. We're going to get there and he's going to be like, Oh my gosh, wouldn't it be so cool if we own that little chalet on the mountain and we could just wake up every morning and look at the batter. Horn. Like, I know that's not going to happen. You're so hard to figure out. Amy, look at the screen. I told him forever ago he really should have come with a manual. Skeptic as a person who questions, ask claims ideas or general beliefs until they can see clear proof or evidence. That is absolutely what you are. All right. I used to maybe be a little more likely to buy into things like this. But I think what's happened in our country and our work, what's happened in the world in the last, you know, decade has made me more of a skeptic. I think it's not your idea. It's not an idea. Our daughter, Ila, has that too. If it's not your idea, it's not, it's like a figment of everybody's mad. I'm just more likely to wait, wait it out. I'm what if I can Josh Barry to come in here and explain this to you? I found myself. I found myself too fast.
Where is Josh Barry? Can we get Josh Barry on aisle four, please? We need Josh to come explain the art story today. I used to jump to conclusions and try to and jump in the conversation. And a lot of times I'd regret getting in there too quickly, making assumptions. I was just talking to you. I think it's me. I'm not going to want to discuss it with everybody. You did because you said, hold please. We'll just talk about that tomorrow. I didn't know anything. I mean, he just closed his eyes and put his hand up like, this is, we're not even going to discuss this. This is crazy. I should say for the show, which I appreciate. Are your ad campaigns lighting up the dashboard, but not the pipeline? That's bullspend. And marketers are calling it out in dashboard confessions.

I don't really care about football team. I still fit into my cheerleading uniform. Can we talk about that? It's your show. They killed A&M the other day. Billy Haynes, our friend Billy Haynes. So did Kobe. Love Texas A&M. And they all went to school there. Kayla did, you know, and so we've got plenty of family members that root for Texas A&M.
And to tease everybody after we won, I went upstairs and got my uniforms, which I was not supposed to keep, by the way, they were supposed to be turned in. So I stole them. And I put one on it. That damn thing fit. And so of course I came downstairs to show Dale that it still zipped up because that was 20 years, 23 or five years ago. Yeah. And so I sent videos to everybody with my uniform on that we were already talking to you on our phones. And so now Dale thinks he's a Kentucky fan. I mean, well, his team's that he wrote for suck. So he probably should have written Kentucky. Caroline almost beat Clemson. Well, I'm a Carolina fan. Tar Heels. Hey, so I pulled for Kentucky because Amy said she'd prefer I did and he will pull for basketball. And they're forever ever watch the football game. Where's number three? His dad was a big deal in heart fan. So now that's my school race. Yeah, cooler. Yeah. I mean, get you Jersey. I feel like I feel like I feel like a really on our way, though, he's going to be wearing royal blue before we know it.
Have you ever taken to a game? No, I haven't even been back to a game since I graduated. I went to, I went to that school. I forget what I was might have been nationwide insurance thing or something, but I remember walking around in the halls in Lexington of the, yeah, I was at Kentucky Wildcats. I was, I remember being in the hallway right next to the entrance of the basketball. Okay. Reparina. You were in the arena. We were dating. And I took, why did I get to go? I took a picture of it and you were like, I remember that hall or I remember that corner standing. I remember that. And the cheerleaders came running by to do something. They were doing something and I was like, oh, there goes Amy. There she goes. That was must have been forever ago. I don't remember that. Yeah. I do remember some things. Yeah. So now he's part of the big blue nation. I love it. Yeah. Let's get him a jersey. We should get him a jersey. We just sweatshirt.
I would like a Tar Heels jersey too. No, no, I don't have one. That's not part of the conversation. Not supporting that. No, you didn't go to school there. Why do you care so much? Because just because it's Carolina blue. All right. We're going to do a test day. Carolina blue name two players for North Carolina. Yeah. You're a Kentucky fan. Yeah. I can't name any Kentucky players either. Kenny Menchie. Hmm. They're quarterback. Kenny Menchie. Oh. Well, that's a thing. That's good. Yeah, he's mad about it, but he's a he's a got now. The Carolina team. All the players are new. It's hard to. I know Julie's pepper's playful with him. What's the guitar Sally you have? Dale has this annoyance with guitar players in public. And so I like to call him a guitar Sally just because it's fun.
But if he says he's sitting somewhere like at a bar, he's having a good time. And there's this random guy that like has his guitar and wants to get it out. He's always annoyed. And so I forget where we were. I forget. But we were sitting sitting down talking about this and he's like, yeah, you know, like, if you're hanging out, especially at somebody's house and somebody's like, I know how to play the guitar and they get their guitar out. And you're like, shut the fuck up, dude. I don't want to hear you play. You're seeing to play your guitar. I did that once. You told them we were racing go carts down at the go cart track. And we we don't win. We were done racing. Everybody's kind of chilling. There's probably about 15, 20 people staying sitting around drink beer and this some some like some guy. That you don't even know. No, yeah, I don't even know this guy. He just comes walking up. He kind of been there.
But he just he gets to go to his car and comes walking up with his good tar and sits down. Starts like playing a little bit. I'm like, put that fucking car away. Listen to this. She's about 20 years ago, 25 years ago. I'm like, I mean, not today. I mean, that around here, buddy, you put that in the car. Can you imagine getting the courage to go get your guitar out of the car to sit down and play for people? Like the amount of time it took to like get that courage up. He's like, that's the right time. I'm going to go get it. He's going to be the man. Did he get his car and high? I don't get it. What he did. No, you're gonna be the fucking guy, dude. This guy probably is somewhat around. What's funny is that, man, so we invite Tim Dugger. And we always have a guitar around. And if he plays it, it's not the same. We should have told this story when Tim was on the, the, the, the desert download. But we, we did talk about how we invited Tim and Tara to the, the, uh, QS house.
Yes. To hang out for the very first time and they didn't, Tara didn't know anybody. Amy didn't know them and me and Tim barely knew each other. I had met Tim at the house. Right. And so we, we just don't hardly know them. We had never met Tara. She was there. We're about a day or two in for this trip. And I'm, I've got me, Jake Backer, who works at HMS is there. And there's probably about four or five couples. And so we're all hanging out and Tim, somebody, somebody says, Tim, you bring a guitar? Tim probably says, yeah, I did. It's upstairs in the room. Oh, go get it. Play a song. So Tim, this is all happening out at the pool. So Tim brings his guitar down. I had walked in to get a beer and I, I look outside and Tim's out. Now here it, Tim's out there strumming his guitar, like playing for about, you know, five or six people sitting around the pool and Jake walks in to the kitchen.
And I'm like, man, I mean, Amy, Amy, Amy, Amy probably said, turn the music down for a minute. I'm like, man, I've turned my fuck off. And this summer, I heard, I heard some pool play this guitar. This sucks. It's like three and an afternoon. And I'm like, ready to have the fuck use it cranked. Yeah. And we're ripping. And Jake and I stood it sat in there just out the whole situation while it was going on. There's such butt heads. We were so rude fast just in general fast forward to me and Tim's and Tim knows the story. But fast forward to Tim and I standing there doing that little social media video. And we get asked, um, worst concert, worst concert and Tim and I both go. Mm, like any live music at a bar like and he and I both agree like the guy that walk, you know, whenever you're sitting there jamming into the touch tunes or they got great music playing out of the speakers at the bar
and they turn it down and you see some. It's a bad change with his guitar. And you're like, God dang it. Even the musicians. Yeah, another bar we got to move. I told Dale when I went to QS the other week, we get to scooters and I play a song and it doesn't get into 15 seconds. And they pulled the plug and getting ready for the band. The first of all, the band wasn't even playing yet. They're just getting ready. I think I should get a refund for that song. Yeah, you should have, they should have given you a credit like they should play it. And it's the worst you ever, man. Let it play all the way up until the minute the guys should. So there's no silence. But anyways, yeah, if I'm in a so be it. Well, the first time we met Tim, he came to, he came to the house with Austin Dillon. They were playing paintball. They had paintball awards like out in the field. And he came to the house and he brought his guitar with him and eventually later in the evening, after everybody had had a bunch of beer, he got his guitar out and was playing music. And I didn't know he was a singer. I thought maybe the guitar was one we had at the house because there was always one hang on the wall. And that's how I met Tim.
And so like I always enjoyed it. I like live music, especially, I mean, if it, especially if it's that kind of environment, like when you're at home, I would rather turn your music down to hear. Yeah, Tim sings. I like live music as well. But when I go to a bar, I kind of go there to drink and listen to the bar music. It depends on what you're like, if I'm going to a bar and I'm like, they got touch tunes where I go play. And I get there and then it turns off and Tim ends up upset. But if I'm going to a bar and I know there's going to be live music, I didn't ever have control of the music. You have expectations. Like, hoax breath. You go there. You know, you're not going to be playing music live music there. I'm good with that. But I mean, I too, if when we were going down to the keys years ago and the door for door falls or playing, we would, we would go. We would go just to watch them. Yeah. Like if they were playing the sunset beer at lunch, that's where we were having lunch. Yeah. If they were playing schooners that night, we weren't f**king it.
It was awesome. So I mean, it's just to, if you know the band, it makes it a big difference. But if you don't know the guy, I don't know. Or if you're just not expecting it, it pops out of nowhere. Yeah. Yeah. It's a bold move until me, it's your bold with not today, but he put it back in the car. I think I'll wait. I'll told you to get dead out. Oh my gosh. Can I play a little Vista that? I probably would have cried if I was that guy. Yes, let's play this play a game. So we're going to do this or that fall edition. Figured Amy might like fall questions since we're technically in fall now. It's and it feels like fall outside. And it's a, so would you rather have a pumpkin spice latte or apple cider drink? An apple cider drink. I feel like all together pumpkin is one of those things that like, I like the idea of it, but I don't really want to taste it. Like I don't want pumpkin pie either. I hate pumpkin pie squishy. Dale. I'm lucky to one of those. But that's like apple cider. You have to pick one. Oh, apple cider I suppose. I don't know. I mean, apple cider is apple cider like apple juice.
No, it's got spices in it. Like cinnamon and nutmeg. Yeah, I don't drink it. I hate nutmeg. You do? Like a nutmeg in a pink color. Oh, that's right. You didn't want to. That's weird. It's weird not to light nutmeg out of all the things that you cannot like. It's just got this like strong. I've got to appreciate you to nutmeg. It's just a bad name. Yeah, bad PR. Yeah, bad. Would you rather go to a haunted house or corn maze? Oh, a haunted house. Yeah, the corn maze is like a, uh, corn mazes are fun. They are fun, but I don't like it lost. They're kind of like, um, an afterthought. An afterthought? Yeah, maybe they're like, like, hey, man, you know what? Just for the we could we could build this really bad ass for maze, but we got this corn over here. When we just cut walkways through their maze. There you go. I don't know. We went through a pretty awesome haunted house. The last one I went through was at Big Seater.
And I went through with Carson Kennedy and Wyatt. And it was so scary. I peed in my pants. Well, I wouldn't have admitted that, but I grabbed Carson. I was like, I can't move. They were jumping out of all, I mean, it felt like a corn maze in there too. They had corn stalks everywhere. So it was like a double, double down, um, on the corn maze and it's the haunted house. Yeah. But you could hear people scream and bloody murder through there before you were waiting, waiting in line to go in. See like when I grew up, the haunted houses were like in a corn maze. Yeah, we're in a field. Yeah, in a field like that's what you did agreed. There was one I went to in college. Right now it was out in a field like that. And they had people chasing you on the very end of it with chain sauce. The haunted house was inside the corn maze. It wasn't really a haunted house. It was like a haunted corn maze. A haunted forest like a haunted trail. A haunted trail. Yeah, do the woods. Yeah, that's not corn maze. It might have been I was just saying that's what I. Yeah, that's. What do you prefer?
A haunted corn maze would be like children of the quarantine. You'll ever see that. You get three choices. Okay. Get haunted corn maze over here. So it'll slow it's like your store brand version. And then you got a haunted trail in the woods. And then you got haunted house building feature. You go inside. I'm with the trail. I like trail to you. You're outside the wind blowing. I feel like haunted like I've done haunted houses and haunted trails. And trails are far more scary. They are far more scary because it's far more realistic. There's something that's scary. Yeah, some good ones. Somebody chasing you around on the dark and the forest. I remember scary as hell. Like I don't we don't do that anymore, but I remember there was a time frame in my life. It was a good solid five to 10 years, maybe in my 20s, where once Halloween came, you did all the trails like you knew where all of them were. And you were going to go to all of them, like in that little two, three, four week period.
And you go standing lines just to go through these silly trails. They still have to do. I know they do. But then I don't know. I got to a certain age and it's like abruptly ended this activity, like just completely void of my life. Yeah. That's what makes sense. I did all your friends get married and do another thing. And so he's like, I got nobody to trail with. I was the last one to convert. Everybody got married. So I have a kids. And then I was like, guess no more trails for me. We're not. We're not throwing eggs at cars anymore. We're not doing anything fun on Halloween. We the streets have been so clean and pure since Dale's friends got married. When I live across the street from D.I. For like a four year period, every Halloween, we went down to the, to how way three right at the I and three exit cars. Dude, I was driving down the road one day and an egg hit the front of my truck.
And I saw it happen in slow motion. And I was like, yeah, I deserve that. Oh my gosh. Cinnamon sugar donuts are apple fritters. Ooh, cinnamon sugar donut. I think I don't really like, I'm not like a cooked fruit kind of girl. Like I don't really like a crumble or a pie either unless it's, I don't know, chocolate. I feel like donut. His favorite donut in general is just a plain cake donut. Yeah, really. Lays or nothing. He doesn't like the yeast. I want the donut. The meat is the minute it has just been like, I don't do nothing to it. Once it comes out of the oven, don't touch it. The oven and college. I lived right behind a place. They fry on baby. Oh, right at the fryer. Don't touch it. I lived right behind a donut place. I was open 24 seven in college. Oh my God. I did too. The crispy cream. It was a this like Greek lady owned it and the don'ts were amazing. Oh man. It's like a little pop. That sounds delicious.
Yeah, you could smell it. Yeah. Chili with beans or without beans with. Yeah. I like all the extra textures and stuff in there. I throw a bunch of vegetables in mine too. Gotta get the big, got to eat some vegetables. What vegetables are you throwing in there? Just peppers and onions. Oh, that's fine. That's normal. It's normal. I thought you're like throwing in something different. Some shredded carrots or something. I mean, I probably could. He'd eat it. He'd be mad about it, but he'd eat it. The only thing he's mad about if I put peas in something, he's like, ah, peas. I'm with him. Are you talking to me? Yeah. When have I said anything about peas? You said you hate peas that you were forced to eat them as a kid and you hate peas. And so if I make soup or anything, even if it calls for peas, I hate that. What is it? Peppers. The cilantro. Yeah, it doesn't like a gross taste like soap. That's terrible. Doesn't it taste delicious? Yeah, it certainly doesn't belong in food. It's long in the bathroom. Some restaurants don't do it. But you do it with the laundry with the bathroom.
It belongs in soap. It belongs in something that or it's cleaning because it sales like a chemical. They say if you feel that way, that's because you've got metal build up in your blood. You're because it actually does bind and detox you of heavy metals. I think they say if you feel that way, that you're just smart. Of course she did. Flannel sheets or a weighted blanket. Not weighted. Flannel sheets. Girl, getting hot flashes already. Just think about that. I hate a weighted blanket. Really? Yes. What do you think a global blanket is? Well, what? Well, it's heavy. No, the furry things. Yeah, we have. No, they're not. It takes two hours to pick that thing up off the bed. Like you can't just we talked about this the other week. Like when the sheets tucked in and it feels like it's, you know, bending your toes over your foot. We need it loose. And you're like kicking out like I, I, I, our bed. That's a live action of what he actually does. When he gets in the bed, I bed got made Thursday and I came in last night to get
bed and I climbed down in and I'm like, get out of the seat. That's like, ah, feel like I'm in a damn, feel like I'm in shrink wrap. Yeah. All right. Last question. Carving a pumpkin or painting a pumpkin? I like carving. I'm just because of this. The nostalgia. But we, we let the kids paint them. Painting illnesses. It's a lot less of messy. I like carbonyms. Yeah. Do you ever cook the pumpkin seeds? I have not. I've not, I've not, once I get done with all the other mess, I'm like over it. You gotta try it. I've saved them for another person to do that with, but I've never, never tried it. Your other family. Who? No, like, tamil with, tamil. She's like, who are you hiding? In her second life. My other family, I'll save that from my family in Virginia. Famous. I love. No, I have invited friends over to do pumpkins with us and they have taken the seeds home.
