My name Story wouldn't Bill. This is the two seventeen Recovery podcast in the North Studio joining me fabulous, Fabulous Special Agast dear friend, Justin Burt,
justin your fabulous get a ride today. It was a long one. Yeah, And you listen to the podcast with a guy or a person or lady or whoever it may be that was going to wherever they may have been going, and they went sleepy time. Yeah, it's like sleepy Time tea. Remember that Sleepy Time tea. Listen to the podcasts and you will go to sleep. Yeah. It was pretty Uh, podcast wasn't right on point, but he decided to take a little news. Hello, what snooze? I
thought you said lows no snooze. If you rewind that, I think that might be a drop. But no, And I've had people tell me this a long time ago, I mean ever since the start is they would listen to us at night and it's something that they would go to sleep too. And I don't mind that at all. No, it means that we have soothing conversations. Yeah, very And somebody might be listening right now, going, Yeah, that's what I do. I turn on at night and I
fall the ft to sleep. Right. Good for you. Listen Scott's to today. Oh, the Reservation Conversation podcast. Yeah, that's what really put him to sleep. But I thought it was really good. Oh man, Yeah that the podcast actually really it is good. Yeah, and I'm helping them kind of started off, and it's called The Reservation Conversation podcast and you can look it up Reservation Conversation this near app store, Get the app.
They're not very long podcast. I think one might be like twenty twenty five minutes. The rest are like ten fifteen minutes. But he's talking about different topics, you know, and some of the things that go on, you know, on the reservation, you know, and some of the things that just affect us all in general. Yeah, there was some about drug court, I think the last one. Ye. And he's really good. Scott
likes to talk, yeah, he does. I thought it was an interesting I didn't realize he played such a big factor in the whole drug court type thing about going to different areas and trying to get it started in everything else, Like, I didn't really know much of Scott's story. Like Scott was a trainer when I took Recovery Coach class sing oh really yeah, he was one of the trainers and one of the classes that I took. I don't know if it was actually the recovery coaching, where the messaging, where the
ethics, but in there somewhere he was one of the trainers. So I never really got to know his story very well, but knew him as a person and everything. Oh and it was kind of nice to hear some of his story today through his podcast. Yeah. Yeah, he gets into it and he dropped an F bomb. I'm so proud of him. Yeah. I told him that because we went to the he invited us to the baseball game, which you went to and you went with and that was fun. I told him. I was like, dude, you dropped an F bomb
in there, and I left it because why not, you know. And he was talking about mental health and how he goes to see a therapist, and he said, well, I go see a therapist. He's like, because I'm fed up. But he dropped the F bomb, you know. Yeah. I didn't even really realize it when he said it because it was just so natural. It's not like he emphasized it or anything. It was just a natural, flowing F bomb. Yeah, which is the best kind of F bomb. If you're gonna drop one, right, I've dropped three
already in this podcast. I want to go back and listen to it. You can pick him up doubt it when a shirt, yeah, I lied about that. And speaking of shirts, you have a shirt that you're gonna start hanging out at your meetings. Yeah, and it says be less that's right, which I thought was pretty cool. I know Adam has a shirt for Recovery Dads. Had a guy come in today and asked about that meeting.
He's like, wait, what is this Recovery Dads. He's like, I'm a dad, I'm a recovery and I was like, oh, well, it's on Sundays ten am. You know, they talk about dad stuff, you know, like, and it's funny because his daughter, the guy that was talking to me about this, his daughter's like No, his daughter's twenty or twenty one. Wow. But there's still the things that you have to go through. And he was talking about some of the stuff in the teenage years, and it's like, oh my gosh. You know, like
there's different levels of dad dadding, dattening. Yeah, I think I'm at fathering. But you just went with it. I appreciate that. Yeah, daddening. Yeah, there's different levels of daddening that. That's a new word. I just made up new slang. I heard it, yeah, first time. So if you're dad ending out there, that's the luck to you, you know, especially with you know, teenage daughters and then early twenties daughters and I know mine spirit thirteen in like eighteen days. Wow. Yeah.
Now did you have to talk with her? No, my mom did. WHOA. I would be kind of leary about that. I think I think I would want to have the talk. I didn't really want to have to talk with her necessarily. No, you didn't want to know. I feel like my mom did a sophisticated job with it. I didn't hear it, but you know, at least my daughter would be more receptable of who was giving her the talk. I think she'd be a little weird out if it was you. I guess, oh no, not really. I mean
we talk about a lot of different things, like we're pretty open. But at the same time, you know, in today's society, someone might misconstrued to talk. What if you sat down with your X I'm zoom and said, Okay, we're gonna have this talk with her. Let me know at seven o'clock, pull me up on zoom and I'll sit in. We'll have to talk. Yeah. I don't think her mom really wanted to do it
neither. I don't know. Oh. That's when he started with guilt tripping her, like, look, you know this is we gotta do this, and because there's there needs to be somebody that kind of gives her the be careful. Here's what guys will do, Here's what guys will say. Um, not all guys. You know, some guys are are very shy, some guys are afraid, and other guys are not so much ruthless, relentless. And I had a guy he was like, I'm trying to think of
who it was. I'll call him out my name if I can remember it. But he was like, look, man, if I hit on every single girl. That's more odds. He's like, yeah, I'm gonna get shot down ninety nine percent of the time that one that one time, it's all worth it. And he didn't care if he made an ass out of himself. He was trying out of his league. He didn't care. I mean every single person, and I can't remember who it was. That's horrible. Yeah, but that was the strategy behind it. Was like, look,
I'm gonna get lucky one of these times. I was like, yeah, but that's probably probably not lucky for the girl, you know. And I was in stream at this one guy. I was saying, and I might have talked about the story in the podcast before, but it was at turning point in Grand Rapids, and this guy was like, I don't know
what he was doing. He was listening to like gangster rap videos every morning and it was just getting old and we would just turn it off and he couldn't really do much about it because of the whole place was like, no turn that off. But anyway, I was saying that I don't remember anything good that ever happened to me while I was drunk, and little Eminem, Little Reese his pieces got up there and he was like, yeah, well
a lot of good stuff happened. I mean I was drunk, and we all kind of looked at him like really, dude, and he was like, yeah, man on times, this girl, man we was drinking, she got real drunk. Man, I ended up hooking up with her. And I'm like, dude, that was that was probably the worst night of
her life, like her walk of shame that next day or whatever. It was like she was probably like had to get tested and I mean it was it was probably a very scary ordeal for her and hopefully that stopped her from
ever using drugs drinking anymore. Right, But it's like, dude, like seriously like that that that's that that doesn't even qualify as a good something good that happened to your life, you know, like someone the see That's what I'm saying, Like these conversations, you know, should be had with the young women of this world, you know, or young whatever you want to call yourself, Like just because the other young whatever they want to call themselves.
Now someone like I said, some are scary or some are scared, some are scary, some of are peer pressured into doing more stuff than what
they want to do. And you know some of these kids too. People are molested when they're young, and studies show and of course I'm not a doctor or a therapist or anything like that, but I'd have read some stuff and study show that people that are molested have that tendency to be more aggressive aggressive, or they're they're exploring more and and way way faster than others are. So it's just like, gotta be careful, man, watch your watch
your kids and be the parent right, you know. And when you're in recovery, you might think, oh, man, I screwed up. I wasn't there as much as I should be or should have been. Well, you got today, don't you. Are you sober now? Like let's start now. There's nothing wrong with that, No, exactly. You don't have
to beat yourself up for the last five years. Like if you haven't seen your kids in five years, okay, well, like that phone call, write that letter, you know, make that connection if you need to, and they'll be eighteen one day, and they'll be twenty and twenty five and
thirty you'll have grandkids. Like I think people get caught up on the whole Oh no, I missed four years of my child's life, Well, are you getting better so that you can be there for the rest of their child's life, because they're I mean, eighteen years goes by quick, and if you really want to think about it, it's only like thirteen or fourteen after that. They don't want nothing to do with your ass. Anyway. I talked about this already, you know, like being the grandparent. I think
we talked about it on a podcast. Yeah, and I like the great grandparent like probably hates life, and it's like, well, these kids don't even know me or like me. I can't remember their damn names, and the don't want nothing to do with me, right, I just give him money every year for their birthday and Christmas. Yeah. So yeah, that's just such a short part. And yeah you missed it, if you did
miss it, but I can't do nothing about that. You know, pick yourself up and do what you can to build that relationship with them, now, Yeah, that's all you can do. I know, with me and my daughter, I didn't see her for a couple of years, and she instant like. I didn't hide nothing from her, you know, I told her I was out messing up and getting high and getting drunk, and everything else, because I wanted to know the real life aspects of real life addiction.
So that way, you know, she could see how easily it messed me up, and she was old enough to remember it and to realize what I was actually doing, even though I didn't really use a round her. But I wasn't home. I was always gone, so it played a factor
in her life, you know. And then she was just kept from me after I got out of treatment and whatnot for a while, so that really messed with her too, knowing that I was wanting to see her and she couldn't see me, like we both wanted to see each other, and her mom was just like, no gonna happen. Like I ended up having to take her to court, so like for dad's out there, like you have
rights to take them the court. Don't be a skirt, right as long as you're doing what you need to be doing, you know, living that good life. I mean, because some people could probably think, yeah but my past or yeah I did this, or it doesn't matter. It's what are you doing right now right? And that's what the judge told me.
He he actually commended me for going to treatment and everything else can change my whole life around, Like it's really rewarding to hear that so doesn't have to end like you think, oh, well, I probably just keep drinking or keep using because it doesn't matter or anyone. No, it does matter, right, It truly does. And you can change some things around. And you know it starts with a therapist. If you need outpatient tream, you need inpatient tream, I mean, who knows, you know, but make
some phone calls. If you got Medicaid, you got insurance, you know, flip that card around and call that number on there and be like, here's my situation. Here's when they need a lot of people sometimes are afraid, you know, like they have great insurance that will pay for them to go to like really cool places, not like California or whatever, Florida's little
coughing Rehab or anything like that. But I'm just saying, like, there's some really nice places that you can go to, but they're too afraid to reach out because well, first of all, what am I going to say that the person on the other end of the phone, I need help. I don't want to have help, you know, like I want to do this on my own. But you're gonna need some help. And that's what
those places are there for. Before you end up screwing everything up, losing your job, finding yourself in jail, then not having that good insurance, you're gonna be like, damn, I wish I would have went when I had the good insurance. Exactly. I know. You brought it up to me last week about how you're gonna make it mandatory for all your employees to have a therapist. Yeah, did you let everyone else know? Not yet? Not yet? Well, like that should be a number one goal when
you get from when you get back, we should all have therapists. Yep. If you're not, you're fired. Right. Mental health is serious. Why did you get fired because I didn't have a therapist? Ye? You're stupid, right, And we all through things, Yeah, we do. And I was talking to the other day and they're like, well, I don't need a therapist, and I said, yeah, okay, yeah you do. Probably Mitch. No, it wasn't Mitch. You Mitch knows he's a therapist. It was I don't know. It might have been somebody at
one of the events we were at. No, it was it was at disc golf and it was like, oh, new therapists end like one of those numbers. Actually I think I did more of um. I think it was more of this number. Yeah you do. And I started just like talking to him about stuff that he would probably want to talk to a therapist about, and he just kind of looked at me. I was like, yoah. It was like, you know, nothing that gets people to live in their car. But it's not easy living in your car. No.
I did it, and it sucked. It could be done right, but there's a point where you just get tired of it. You know. Adam, he'll tell you his story is about living in a car, and you know, and it's just you can make it work, man, but it's not fun. It's not cool. No, not at all. I actually moved to Grand Rapids one time, actually sell the Grand Rapids, and my plan was to live in my car because I was just so tired of just living life in the woods. Really, I grew up in the wooded area.
So I just got tired of it and was like, need time for a change. And it sounds I got of jobs. That's all it really matters. I can find someplace to take a shower, you know. Jim Truck stops whatever Planet Fitness should advertise with recovery people, Yeah they should twenty bucks man, right, But you know I made it work. Yeah. I ended up finding some someone that worked there at the little Taco ball was working at and who had a room, and so I ended up running a
room from them for a while. It worked out really well. So that was quite the come up. So he went from the woods to a car to a friend's room, yeah, or a co workers room. Right, Damn you fast tracked it. Well, it took a little while. I mean, definitely the car is an upgrade from the woods. Well, it wasn't necessarily living in the woods. The cabin was out in the woods though, But you know, I mean, get out of work, go cut firewood. Because my buddy didn't plan really well at the time. He never
cut firewood till we absolutely needed it. So it was always get out of work, go cut firewood to heat the house for the day. And I just got tired of it. You know, I'm grateful that you let me stay at his house, but at the same time I got tired of it. Well that's probably why you let you stay there, is because cutting all the wood for him exactly gotta keeper on here justin Burke. Yep, there's an axe, right, don't you have a wood splitter? No, there's
an axe. Damn dude. I know rough car is way better than that. I'm trying to do that. You have to like shoot your own food and stuff. Oh yeah, damn dude. Reproaching m hmm. Allegedly we all had tags. Allegedly. I love that word. So with the air quotes back to your shirt. Yeah, there's started with this. Uh it's fabulous on it and people that come to your meeting. And I even heard that like if people join on Zoom, they'll be entered into like a drawing
or something to win a fabulous T shirt. And there's two different versions of it, and we don't know which one we like better. One of them says my life in Recovery is and then it says fabulous and big words, and the other one just says fabulous panitless. So I think I like the first idea better. My Life in Recovery is yeah, fabulous, yeah, and you two but we'll see what they look like on the shirt and has

It's a cool meeting, you know, people talking about living in recovery, and that's on Thursdays at seven. Yeah, it's a little meditation. We don't necessarily do a twelve
step or a dharma practice at all. I just do a little ten fifteen minute meditation and then we go from there and talk about like living in life and recovery and seeing what people are actually doing and not doing, and just try to get a little personal and get all up in it.

I was going to start this podcast off with given some shout outs, but there was a couple of people that I noticed. I was putting the video up from the volleyball tournament, yeah, which we got a video and pictures
to seventeen recovery dot Com answered our Facebook as well. But I was up on the Facebook and I saw two people who started birthday I was called birthday raising Money on profit stuff and two people chose to seventeen recovery for their birthday on profit to raise money for and to raise awareness for. Yeah. And one of his name was Matt. He's from Texas. And I was like, damn dude. I was like, I didn't say damn dude. I was like, man, that's awesome. You know, appreciate the support and
supporting you know what we're doing, helping people in early recovery. He said right on. He's like, I'm in early recovery myself, and I appreciate what you guys do, and like he's down in Texas. That's fabulous, it is and that was pretty cool. And then there's another woman by the name of Rachel and she's from Saginaw and she did too. She started a fundraiser for her birthday to raise money for two seventeen recovery and that's awesome.
Yeah, I gotta start looking at that a little more so I can start thinking people yecause we really do appreciate it. Every once in a while, I'll see something come across and it was like meta pay has put this much into your account, and it's like for what I think, I raised like eight dollars to my birthday fundraiser. Yeah, but I wasn't really going hard in the paint with it either. No, But for people that do, though, really appreciate it, Yeah, that is very nice. You know,
we do our podcast for free. You know, we don't charge anything for our app No, it's like, why, we just want to be another resource and it helps me stay sober, helps me stay sober. And I haven't done a real podcast in a while. I mean, we've kind of been dicking around here and there. It seems like we're at the golf thing and then or the disc golf thing. I don't want to call it
golf thing because that's very offensive to golf. And we did the golf volleyball tournament, you know, which was only like fifteen minutes long, and I don't know, Tyrone wanted to eat and it's like time shut it down, and I thought we would do another one, but we never did. I started playing with the drone, that's what happened, I mean, and it wasn't playing with it. I started getting footage for the video, for the three little ten second clips. Then I put in there, that's all right,
it's all right, the video looks fabulous, I think. So yeah, yeah, I gotta start doing more video and less pictures, I think. But I mean, there were so many pictures, man, Yeah, Jeremy took a lot. Yeah, and I didn't put all the pictures on the video because like the videos like two minutes long, and I wanted to keep it around thirty five forty seconds. But there was just so many pictures. Yeah, And I only put maybe a third of the pictures that are
in the video. Video of the rest are online to seventeen recovery dot com, like on the front page, and well, you'll see it up top, it'll say picks. And then there's that we used to call it in radio, a dynamic lead. It has the thing that rotates about the top like it has a picture of Marnie on it, and it says, you know, for event pictures, click here. You can get there that way too. Yeah, and then for the video. You just scrolled down on
our website a little bit and there it is. But how's the blog assignment's been going for you? Oh? Pretty easy, it's really too And I come right in. I'm very sneaky about it. You'll be talking to someone and I'll just come in and sit at my desk and just bust one out real quick, and that's gonna be a drop. And like today, you know, I wrote one out, I published, it, came in, let you know, I published it. Walked out to Mitch and he was like, I was like, what blog you're writing it? I already did
mine. He goes, I ain't telling you. I was like, well, fine, I ain't telling you what one I did, but you can online and find out. And it was funny because he was going to write the same thing I wrote about. Yeah, and a little back story here. I want the guys to have fun and recovery. And the blog is an extension of us, you know. It's it's a way for us to get our thoughts or our feelings out there. And sometimes it's hard, you know, to sit here and go, oh, I didn't have a bad
day, and I don't want to rub it in. Then I had such a great day and I don't want to jinx anything either, you know, And sometimes it's hard if if if you're like guessing what you're writing about, then it's not gonna be genuine. And it's just like ah, man, like I wanted to be real, genuine. I wanted to be like from the heart, and I wanted to be intelligent. I wanted to be on point. I want to be topical. It's hard to get all that stuff
in there. So with our website, a lot of people go to our website and you never know who's gonna read something that's going to inspire them. So with my thinking behind that with you. We have another blog writer now too, which is great Kevin. You can read his stuff. Yeah, yeah, I ever a few of his blogs, nice sweet short, yeah, And it's just something he wants to keep up with every day. But with you guys, I got you on staff. Man, I'm painting moneys,
so like, let's get them blogs going. And it's not as easy as that. So I figured, here's what we'll do. Make a blog assignment. Each Monday, I will send out an assignment. I'll give you, guys four options, and there's three of you. So one option is that I'm going to be used. So wait till the recycle month. It's gonna be fun. The fits Monday as a month, it'll be the something
that nobody wrote about, nobody wanted to. It'll be really interesting. Yeah, but it's a fun way for me to pick the topics and some of them, you know, or the topics and the title. So that's what you have to put the title, ads, and that's what you got to write about. And yours was why rapping four or rapping fourte or why rapping fourte is your favorite rapper of all times something like that, something like that.
You did a pretty good job, you did a little research to it, and it's fun, you know, like clearly you don't think rapping fourte's are gonna rapper alive. And oh but he wasn't bad though, I mean he had to come up through some of the greatest rappers though, like Nwa and Tupac Biggie you know, yeah Wu Tang. Yeah, you're a little hard on today's rappers in your blog. Well they're mainly mumble rapping. It's all about toting guns and yeah, just not. I don't know, I
just don't really care for today's rap. Really, there's nothing wrong with that, no. I mean, there's a few rappers that are all right, but you know, a lot of them are just I don't know. It's like this new form of rapp and I just don't really care for it. It's not as smooth as like the old rap used to be, the old school that we grew up with. Yeah, way different, that's for sure. Yeah, but you did it. I did it, and then Mitch
you know, he wrote his block too. But it's just the way that, you know, I have a little fun with the blogs and give you guys some to to write about. That's that's silly that you guys can't write about. And so far it's going pretty well, I say, I like most of the stuff that you guys have delivered. And Adams won last week, and it'll be interesting to see what he does this week. Yeah, right now, I have to say you're in the lead. Thank you.
Adam's gonna pull something, obviously if he always does. Yeah, yeah, he just kind of reacts to it. He doesn't react to it. He waits for it, and then he acts upon whatever. Right, you know, it might be easier going last. I don't know, like you say, you jump right on it. Mitch kind of flows through and then yeah, he thought me, you and Adam were all in here talking this morning, but didn't even realize. I was at my desk listening to some rapping
fork, you know, to find out what his music even was. I've never even heard of the guy. How did you start your day? Well, justin listen to rapping foete. Yeah, that's how I started my day at work, Oh my gosh, you know. But you know, I listen to some of his music and figured out what somewhat what he was about, and went from there, you know, and wrote a blog. And then I said, are playing other songs for you guys? And you didn't know, You didn't know who Onyx was? You ever heard of Naughty by
Nature? Yeah, okay, yeah, of course you've heard of that one, that group, But Yeah, it's just just a good way to try something new and have a little fun in recovery, and that's something that we're about, Yeah, about that fun life. Yeah, it was nice to come in and listen to some like calm rap. I don't really know how to say it any other way. Like his beats are calm and relax and makes you just want to groove to it. M fabulous, fabulous. Yeah,
apparently I deleted some of Mitch's drops. Oh, I don't know how I did that. That's a shame. It is a shame. It's been kind of hard trying to find a like a nineteen twenty year old what what are you talking about? Mitch? How did he get on the podcast? I don't know. We'll have to get him in here, and maybe we'll get him in here next week to do a podcast him, Mitch and Jeremy are going to start a podcast. Yeah, I've seen you ordered some stuff.
Well that's for me, but I'm not sure if I can use it because when we do videos, and I mean, I guess I could do it in here, but I just don't know if I have enough space, like if I had someone sit right there at the which is not the sex couch. Oh yeah, not at all. There's no sex on that couch. It's black and there's no white stains on it. So so interview couch.
I could have somebody sit there. I guess there's a couple of cramp camera I could put one and where you're at facing that way in one right here facing that way, But then the lights would be kind of a problem. So I don't know. In this room is so small, I don't know. But I have that boom like there that I could run and record with. But my office is pretty small, but I'm sure I could probably do it in there. I got a little bit more room. It's a
little more open. Yeah. I don't even know where I'm going with this story. I don't know. Are we returning the spotlight video? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, no one the Yeah, that's that's all I'm thinking about. I'm not gonna work. I might call it something else, but no. The thing that I ordered, I thought you could plug it in because like I have to run that court all the way over to the board and it sounds fine. I had this other little jinkie little audio by thing
that I tried to run through that it only records it in mono. It just it wasn't that good. It sounded like crap. So I got this other thing for like sixty buck, but I can't record into it. Like the board I have here, which is big, you can record into it, like I wouldn't need to put it on a computer right away. Okay, but I'm looking at it too because Adam and I in you we're gonna start making this video. I think it's gonna be called alcohol so fun.
Yeah, it's gonna be very sarcastic. And we were telling stories, Adam and either other day about man, we should like remember this, remember that, Like we should film that I like brought to you by Jim Beam. Yeah, you know, and like until they make it, until they like sue us or something. Sent really cared for the hangovers. But you guys
said you'd just wake up keep drinking, Well you'd have to. I just couldn't do that because like we woke up, we were still drunk, and during the day we'd start getting the shakes, Like that's when the alcohol would start leaving our system on our body would be like, WHOA hold on, I need that to live because your body starts thinking that like Hey, give me so much of this stuff. I really need that to function, and
your body does. And that's why people buy when they withdraw, you know, like if someone's like, I'm just gonna quit drinking today, or you know, somebody's mom or dad or sister or whoever takes their bottle away and it's like you're not drinking and they're like two weak to even get up, and they're just like they're dying, like literally, they're they're dying. And the family member thinks, well, I did something. I took that away from him, like I'm killing them. Yeah, let's not do that.
There's recent books. Let's take him to the hospitals. Let's take him to the doctor and figure that out. And then you take him the hospital and they're like, we're not a d talks and they're like, yeah, but he can die. We're not a D talks. Like they don't care, right, they really don't. And some of them around here will just give you the D tax medicine, be like here, take these as prescribed for the next few days. If you have any grandma seizure, some good luck
and yeah, because you can come back then. But it's tough, man, it really is, and we were gonna make the videos. We had some really good ideas and you know, so like having a boom mic it would be nice, but I can't lug this thing out there, and I wanted something that was small, which I thought that which this is. But then I have to somehow connect this to a computer. So I'm like,
I don't know if that's really gonna work. But then I was saying, a man, I could maybe connected to my phone, which I do have recording software on my phone. There you go, So I still got to play with it and see if it can work. But yeah, I mitching Jeremy. I was like, hey, you guys, can you know, try that out and if you want to buy that from it you can.
You know, it's only like sixty bucks. But it's starting a podcast, man like is like, if you want to do it right, it can be time very time consuming, and it can it can get expensive, but you're not using If it's something that keeps you sober, then yeah, why not. It's a win. It's a hobby. It gives you something to do, and so they can help a lot of people and I think they'll do all right. Yeah, definitely enlighten you what's their podcasts? Yeah,
who knows what it's gonna be about. That's their podcast, you know, nothing to do with to seventeen recovery, just me helping them. And yeah, they just happen to work here. But I'm not going to censor them, you know, like they can talk about whatever they want exactly, which is what they need to do. So we'll let you know when that comes around. I think they're gonna try to kick it around for a month and then kind of flip it over to like this other thing and we'll tell you
all about it one day. So I just stay yeah, stay tuned. Details. We'll be here before you know it, and so will football. Yeah, I can't wait. Injuries piling up already. I know we got what ten days till preseason something like that, but you know, I'll be in Seattle, but they're Seahawks. They're not even playing there. Their first game, preseason game is against Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh. Nice playing that one wrong, Yeah you did. We went to Pittsburgh last year, which nice city.
It's a nice city. It's kind of small but big enough. Then you go there like for a wedding or something. Ye. But now You're going to Seattle just to go to Seattle doing anything fun while you're in Seattle. Um, I think we're gonna do, um, maybe sexual relations. Well, of course probably. But then the Seattle Seahawks, like I want
to tour their stadium, We're gonna try to do the Mariners stadium. But it said their tickets were not available, So I said, well, I'm not buying your tickets to your game then, because I really don't care about the Mariners day. No, I don't want to spend two and a half three hours. It's some baseball game, yeah, not a no suite, actually have to deal with the outside element. Yeah, well, I mean it's dome. Well they have a roof that is open and shuts or whatever,
but retractable. But I just know, I don't know. I just I used to be in baseball a lot, and I was drinking a lot. You know, I turn on the Cubs. I'm like, well, I got to drink because the Cubs are on. Cubs play all the time. I mean, well, I mean all the teams really play all the time. So yeah, I just I don't know. I just have no interest in the baseball team or the team they're playing or just baseball in general. I don't really care you like to commentate for it though. That was
hilarious yesterday, Oh at the baseball game. Yeah that was Sunday two days ago. My bad time's flying. Man. Yeah, well it's fun to do that. But man, that game, we're there, they was we just gotta say this real quick and we'll be on. But it was the swa Spitters, not the Swallows as the spitters, the pit spitters. And it's like these young kids who are going to college, but this is a way that they can earn money for rich people or wait, no, hold
on, man, money, No, it's money for their college. Yeah. I'm not really for sure how they're doing something, but they're all like college students because you can't take money if you're in college for sports. Well I guess you can, now, Yeah, that's something difference. So I don't know, but anyway, their college kids wouldn't. Man, this dude hit the bases loaded like plue funk, like just plunking dudes pop pop pop pop, and then they pull them out and next dude comes in pop pops
guy, and they PLoP another guy. In the next inning, a couple of them and then finally the pitt Spitters guy throws back and he like barely grazes the dude from the other team. I'm like, man, should hit him right in the helmet. Yeah, there'd have been some booties that were sober, for sure. And the kids the other kids were from like Battle Creek. We're not from battle Creek because they were from all over country, but they're playing for Battle Creek, and it's just like, man, are
they teaching those kids up there? Yeah? I don't know not how to pitch, that's for sure. There was a lot of bad fundamentals. I'm like, how are these kids out in college? Man? Exactly? It was horrible, maybe because I just wasn't that good that I had to like get the fundamentals down. But like these kids are just like lillygagging, like catching flyballs, and I will feel why the dude's tagging up. They're not even trying to get under it in any kind of way to throw the ball.
Like, it's just yeah, it was. It was just like, yeah, I'm out here from my college. I really don't care. I'm just I'll catch the ball. I don't catch the ball, like I don't know. Yeah, hopefully the game Thursday is better. I should I should request permission to go talk to him in the locker room before the game. You should make a badge and sam a scout. There you go, you could two seventeen recovery scout. Yeah, you guys want to play for us?
