I remember why 12 00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:04.719 we stopped it the first time. Yeah. Then yeah, this last time, 13 00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:07.599 I thought I heard something weird and it really wasn't off to a good 14 00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:12.920 start. It was like the shimp with the shimp. The ship was sinking 15 00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:19.000 fast, you know. Is that what he calls sprint boat? Yeah? 16 00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:23.640 Scrimp them? Poor Forrest Gump. Well, the last podcast I did with 17 00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:30.719 mister Justin Burke and mister Adam Stevens. Marnie listened to the other day and 18 00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.959 she was like, yeah, it was good until it wasn't. I was 19 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:38.760 like, oh, what was that meaning about? We were joking, we 20 00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:42.959 were clowning around about starting a morning show. Should with you with a name? 21 00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:47.799 We're a podcast. I'm sorry because before the podcast I kind of explained 22 00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:49.560 myself. I'm like, look, before that, we were kind of talking 23 00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:53.719 about radio names and stuff like that and what Billy blows and Jesse jobs. 24 00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.959 Yeah, and you put together and that's what you get. But and then 25 00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:02.439 she got my aunt going and yeah that part really wasn't funny. And Martie's 26 00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:07.599 just like, it just sounds immature. I said, progress not perfection. 27 00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:12.879 You know, this is what this is what I do when you're not on 28 00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:15.719 honey like I. It's like you let the dog outside without a leash. 29 00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:19.000 Where you think is you run around the ar like a wild ass dog. 30 00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:21.879 Well, what do you think you're gonna do with the X radio guy When 31 00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:23.360 you give him a microphone, you take the leash off. You know he's 32 00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:30.159 gonna run around the studio with microphone, whatever comes to my mind. I'm 33 00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:31.879 just throwing it out there. Man, you can see that too. Of 34 00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:35.800 course, what do you think you let the dog out without leash and he 35 00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:44.840 goes. I'm just saying, man, just saying. But I had a 36 00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.479 rough weekend. I think I'll talked to you guys about it. Yeah, 37 00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:52.680 it was tough. You know. It's it's being on this side of recovery, 38 00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:54.759 which I love, you know, being in recovery. I love that 39 00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:59.479 part, you know. Being in addiction, I did not love that part. 40 00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:02.800 I didn't know how I would ever get out of that. I though 41 00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:07.479 I only happen to other people. And here I am almost, you know, 42 00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.840 five years later, a couple months of five years. So it can 43 00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:16.199 be done, you sure can. But now in the old saying, what 44 00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:23.120 comes around goes around. And I'm finding myself in these situations where I'm around 45 00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:28.599 drunk people and they're annoying people. People I just don't want to be around. 46 00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:30.639 And it's not that I don't love them, it's not that I don't 47 00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:34.000 like them. It's just i'd rather not be around them when they're drunk. 48 00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:38.120 You know. It's nobody likes to be around drunk people. Let's just trying 49 00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:44.479 to take advantage of them or something. But that's not cool. It's been 50 00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:49.280 kind of hard trying to find a like a nineteen twenty year old. We'll 51 00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.639 put a pin in that, Mitch. Yeah, we'll get into the meaning 52 00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:58.680 of that. Sorry I was inappropriate. Oh it's it's okay. I have 53 00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:03.000 to get all up in it, Mitch, stop it stop. I haven't 54 00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:06.520 been on a podcast in a while, so I just, you know, 55 00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:12.120 gotta let it all out. Man, you're on them all the time. 56 00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:16.199 You just don't know it. Still, the story goes, Guys, I 57 00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:19.759 was at my family's. My stepdad had a birthday party, and we went 58 00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:26.079 down there and it was just a lot of drinking and just I found myself 59 00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:29.639 at this point where it's just like, if this is how it's going to 60 00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:31.399 be at family functions, and I'm just not gonna go, you know, 61 00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:34.680 I just didn't find it any fun. It was a lot of arguing, 62 00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:36.639 a lot of bickering. I think a lot of that was brought on by 63 00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:42.199 the drinking. And at one point it was like, Hey, Corey, 64 00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:44.399 why don't you get in the middle of this, And I said, because 65 00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:47.959 I found it easier my life goes easier if I just stick to what is 66 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:51.600 Corey's problems, you know, like I'm not trying to get into your problems, 67 00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:56.240 or if you have a problem with this person or that person, not 68 00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.199 my problem. I'm over here, don't really care. You know, you 69 00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.040 guys can figure that out. Why am I gonna interject myself into a situation 70 00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:09.000 that's already like toxic. I don't want anything to do with this, No 71 00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:15.959 thanks, Why this doesn't even sound fun? And so just but just dealing 72 00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:21.720 with it. And I kind of describe it as you know that a train 73 00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:27.680 is gonna wreck because you've been on this train before and you've seen it wreck, 74 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:31.399 and you know it recks every time. And you see people getting on 75 00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:35.600 this train and you're going, hey, hold on, man, this this 76 00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:40.720 train wrecks every time it goes by whatever station. Didn't you see the sign 77 00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:44.879 that says, you know, tracks ending. It wrecks every time, and 78 00:05:44.920 --> 00:05:49.240 it hurts bad and it sucks, okay whatever. And they get on the 79 00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:53.959 train anyway, and you watch it take off and you're like, but it's 80 00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:58.560 not gonna end well, you know, and some people don't get a chance 81 00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:03.560 to make it off the train. I was lucky enough, I somehow survived. 82 00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:12.240 Some people don't. And when you see people on this train and you 83 00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:14.319 just know, like, if it's only gonna end a couple of ways. 84 00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:18.160 You know, jail's institutions are deaf. And when you see somebody and it 85 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:23.480 looks like they want the deaf part, and here's that's that's a weird situation 86 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:27.279 too, right, you know. And it's just like nothing I can say 87 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:29.839 or do to change these people's minds. But here I am in recovery. 88 00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:30.720 So some people look and be like, hey, help them out, and 89 00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:35.319 I'm like, for what, they don't want help. I can't help somebody 90 00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:40.920 who does not want help, And that's hard for some people to fathom or 91 00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:44.160 wrap their brain around. But if there's parents out there listening, or family 92 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:47.000 members or loved ones or whatever, and you have someone that you love that's 93 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:49.319 going through it, you know what I'm talking about, you know, and 94 00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:55.920 maybe they're at a spot where they want help, and that's great. Without 95 00:06:55.920 --> 00:07:00.560 that, you really can't start anywhere. But it's just it's tough to sit 96 00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:03.839 with, you know. And then I start thinking of my being judgmental, 97 00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:08.000 am, I being the bad guy, because some people can drink yeah, 98 00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:12.519 some people can, but not people that are getting on that train. You 99 00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.680 know, those those people aren't even getting on that train. Those people that 100 00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:19.240 are getting on that train will look at you and call you judgmental too for 101 00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:27.000 not getting on that train. I don't really care what they think. I 102 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:33.360 just worry about am I really being judgmental? You know? And I don't 103 00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:36.240 know. I don't think I am, because I don't see these people that 104 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:40.399 often, and they can say, well, I was just letting loose that 105 00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:45.240 one day. But I do hear stories, people talk, I see stuff, 106 00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:46.920 I get messages. Sometimes it don't make sense, and it's like, 107 00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:53.160 this is what I did to people, this is this is the hell I 108 00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:59.439 put people through, and now I'm getting it back. I don't know. 109 00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:03.240 It's a weird feeling, man. You know. Here in Traverse City with 110 00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:09.160 two seventeen recovery, I have my safe comfort zone. I go where I 111 00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.399 choose, you know, I hang out and I'm surrounded by people who I 112 00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:16.040 want to be surrounded about by, and you guys are all in recovery, 113 00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:20.560 so it's easy, you know, and like, you step outside of that 114 00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:24.639 zone and I didn't want to drink or anything. Actually did the reverse effect. 115 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:31.040 It made me not want to drink even more. But it's just weird 116 00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:33.879 when you step outside that bubble that I've been in and you go back to 117 00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.080 be around people that are family members and like, these people are supposed to 118 00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:41.320 be you know, loved ones, and I'm supposed to care about them, 119 00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:43.720 But then at the same time, I'm like, I'm not sure if I 120 00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.559 want to be even around some of these people. I feel that way on 121 00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:54.879 a weekly basis. With your family, mm hmm, it's tough. Does 122 00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:58.120 it just eat at shit? Does it just make you feel a little sick 123 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.679 or something like? How does it make you sometimes? Like I don't know. 124 00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.519 I just like some days I would just rather stay up here and not 125 00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:11.360 even have to worry about it, But that's not possible. Now. You 126 00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:16.960 talk to your family like way more than I ever even tried to mm hmmm 127 00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:24.360 on purpose, only a few of them. Yeah, you type of your 128 00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:30.360 family like you love them or something. What dude, But you know it's 129 00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:35.720 just hard. You know that my mom's a function functional alcoholic. You know, 130 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.000 she goes to work every day and comes home and I can't wait, 131 00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:48.279 no way fucking wait, And you just said something what functioning alcoholic. That's 132 00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:54.759 what they call. My dad called himself a functioning alcoholic once and I was 133 00:09:54.799 --> 00:10:01.960 like, you got do you hy? Bro? That's not functioning. Yeah. 134 00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:07.440 It's like as much as we think we're functioning, we're not. You 135 00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.039 know, I don't think I used to call myself that too. I'm a 136 00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:13.559 functioning alcoholic. I go to work and I pay my bills, and I 137 00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:16.480 then I stopped started paying my bills because well, I needed alcohol, and 138 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:22.360 alcohol is expensive, it's pensive, and for you know it. Now you're 139 00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:24.440 not paying the bill, you're not paying the credit card bill, and then 140 00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:26.720 that's going to be double payment. Now you got late fee, and now 141 00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.759 you're like, f and I paying at all. I didn't. I didn't 142 00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:33.679 even like them then, so I stop paying on that one. Then the 143 00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:35.360 other one you stop paying on, and then you're just like, well, 144 00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:37.759 I really just need to pay my house payment in my car payment, and 145 00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:39.799 then that starts getting behind, and then they come take your car and you're 146 00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:48.399 like, well, it's looking on my house, and but it they're on 147 00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:54.200 the train. You know, it's there's no functioning alcoholic. Like you could 148 00:10:54.200 --> 00:11:01.600 be super duper rich and have all some of these celebrities out there. You 149 00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:03.360 know, they'll be super super dupa rich, and I have all the money. 150 00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:09.960 They could buy alcohol until they die, and they do sometimes, but 151 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.559 they're not functioning and then they get fired from jobs and it's all in the 152 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:16.039 press. You know, Like look at Ben Affleck, you know, and 153 00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:18.360 he's come back pretty strong. You know, he's in recovery. And I 154 00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:22.720 really wish he'd make a movie about him in his life because that would be 155 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:26.720 interesting as hell. And he played a coach in a movie. Did you 156 00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:33.200 guys see that? He was a basketball coach, Basketball coach Ben Afflack. 157 00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:35.480 I think it was the name of the movie. I don't know. He 158 00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:37.960 got Game Part two or something or not, I don't know, but he 159 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.960 was a coach and it was a really good movie if you just google Ben 160 00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:46.840 Affleck basketball movie coach or something, and he plays a guy that is battling 161 00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:52.919 alcoholism and it's really good. And I put a comment on his Facebook thing 162 00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:56.039 about it and it was like, Ben, it'd be great if you actually 163 00:11:56.039 --> 00:12:00.320 made a movie about your real life, bro. And then that was like, 164 00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:03.039 I don't know two years when I wrote that, and not that I'm 165 00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:07.720 name dropping or nothing, but about a month ago, Ben Afflac liked my 166 00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:18.639 comment from a while ago. Yeah, NICs mm, not that I'm name 167 00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:22.320 dropping, but I'm just I'm friends with the ben Affleck now because he likes 168 00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:26.840 a comment that I put on his blue check. Baby. No, no 169 00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:31.639 X. I think we're still on X. But I don't know, not 170 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.879 ecstasy. I'm just saying that the Twitter new Twitter's X. They call it 171 00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:43.360 X or something extra exhibit. Oh yeah, no, no, No, 172 00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.600 we're gramming though, Yes, got the Graham. We don't have the TikTok 173 00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:52.279 though? Why can these all be turned into drug terms? I don't know, 174 00:12:52.879 --> 00:13:01.200 Graham, we're not on X, but we got to grant. The 175 00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.480 movie you're talking about is called The Way Back. That's what I said. 176 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:11.000 Did you hear him? That's what I said? Bro Man, No, 177 00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:16.919 well, you guys should watch that movie. It was pretty good, justin 178 00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:24.960 you probably would like people aren't doing grams and X and stuff. Just facebooking 179 00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:31.799 on there. Funny, but I think you'd appreciate it. Mitch, you 180 00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:37.159 know it's about the drink. I haven't watched a good coach movie in a 181 00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:41.679 while. It's a good one. Is it better than what's his Name's coach 182 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:48.559 movie? Where he coached a bunch of the Special Olympics kids the ringer. 183 00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:52.919 No, I thought you liked that movie? It was al right, it 184 00:13:54.000 --> 00:14:01.399 was horrible stupid? Was it better the Colomba Junior High School film editing crew 185 00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:07.440 putting that together? Man, that was stupid. Yeah, way better than 186 00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:11.000 that one. Whatdy Harrelson stole them people's money? Oh, Mitch, if 187 00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:13.240 you're going to do that, you can be like, hey, and there's 188 00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:18.919 a button that can mute your microphone. See can't even hear he's talking right 189 00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:20.919 now, but we can hear. So if you cough, it's even better. 190 00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:31.919 But I hit the button this time. Yeah. Yeah, So these 191 00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:37.320 boards are bootylicious. I was learning how to. I was trying to learn 192 00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:45.639 how to put the drops in them, and I found swear mode. Fabulous 193 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:52.399 swear mode. There's a swear mode enlighten us. Well, it mutes whatever's 194 00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:58.000 being said and then it does the sensor sound. Got your yeah more than 195 00:14:58.039 --> 00:15:05.039 one? Yeah? Three? Let me probably only imagine what the laser one 196 00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:11.399 I haven't heard is two times? Ah got your ass two times because you're 197 00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:18.480 head rot the special one going out to her homeboy JD. But uh, 198 00:15:18.600 --> 00:15:22.600 I just couldn't say that seeming funnier, it wasn't when it was originally recorded. 199 00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:26.799 Now, let me tell the story about the got your Ass drops, 200 00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:31.320 because I know Marnie was like, I didn't explain to her even but we 201 00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.639 pull up some of my old demo and I started going through these disses. 202 00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:37.879 And I used to have a weatherman back in the day called the Chief, 203 00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:45.159 and probably couldn't do that in twenty twenty three, but back in whatever, 204 00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:48.559 two thousand and four, two thousand and six, whatever it was, I 205 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.320 had a weather man and I didn't like to do the weather because I was 206 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:54.080 like, people can look outside, people can look on their phone, people 207 00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:56.840 can get the weather however they want it. Nobody's waiting for me to come 208 00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:00.440 out of this commercial break to tell them what the weather is. He's like, 209 00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:03.519 we got to do the Weather Experiance sponsor, you know, And I 210 00:16:03.559 --> 00:16:06.360 was like, all right, whatever. So I had the Chief doing my 211 00:16:06.440 --> 00:16:12.679 weathers and he was supposedly this was his character was he was related to the 212 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:17.279 guy who ran the radio station somehow, and somehow he got a job because 213 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:19.360 of that, and he sucked and he would just do these over the top 214 00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:22.639 weathers that sometimes it would be like a minute and a half long and he's 215 00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:29.639 just acting a fool. Well then he just was like, I can't do 216 00:16:29.639 --> 00:16:33.679 that anymore because it did take a lot of time. So my intern at 217 00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:38.240 the time, the Cowboy Tyler, he was always helping at the station and 218 00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:41.720 stuff, and I liked him, and he was just wanting to do the 219 00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:42.399 weather. So I was like, all right, man, you can do 220 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.399 the weather. So he would call in every night and do the weathers and 221 00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:49.360 he didn't like the chief, and the chief didn't like him. So the 222 00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:53.639 chief just came in one day and just did a bunch of disses for the 223 00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:56.759 cowboy, and he was just like like one of them was like, hey, 224 00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:03.200 cowboy, why don't you send a pe to the moon? Or I 225 00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:06.319 don't know something. Then it's something silly like hey, you know your girlfriend's 226 00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:10.799 ugly, got your ass. He was just ended with that. But they're 227 00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:15.519 much worse than when I'm These are some very PG stuff, but the other 228 00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:18.079 stuff is not PG. And I was playing that in the radio back in 229 00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:22.799 the day because it was funny, I thought so and uh and so yeah. 230 00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:30.759 So his name is Aaron, Aaron mckelrath. He's funny, funny dude. 231 00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:33.160 But he was the one that did that, and it was so damn 232 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:34.640 funny. We were just dying listening to him, and I actually had to 233 00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:37.799 leave the room at one point and he's in there cracking himself up at some 234 00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:41.880 of them. And when you showed me those for the first time, I 235 00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:47.359 thought this was not like an act he was putting on or a voice, 236 00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:52.400 and you're like laughing, and I'm like, this is an actual person. 237 00:17:52.759 --> 00:18:00.200 This is kind this is terrible, Like does this person exists? Because you're 238 00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:07.480 just laughing like you are right now and harder this one after another after another, 239 00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:10.920 and some of the stuff he was saying, I'm like this, that's 240 00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:19.240 you met. This man got your ass. Then finally you're like oh no, 241 00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:22.160 no, no, no no. This was like he did it for 242 00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:25.599 fun and that's not how he talks. I was like, thank god. 243 00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:29.880 And then I played you Cowboy and you're like again, I'm like, no, 244 00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:33.279 no, he's really like he really does well. And I think that's 245 00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:37.960 why I thought that, because I think you played Cowboy first and he's not 246 00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:42.039 acting. You can tell he's gonna be cloudy. And then I have him 247 00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:45.440 to do it beat like, who do you want me to impersonate tonight. 248 00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.559 I'mber really good at impressions, you know. And he was and I'm like 249 00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:55.160 Jackie Channing, he's like cloudy. Then Michael Jackson, he was like and 250 00:18:55.400 --> 00:19:03.759 sixty eight. Sometimes he'd be mad because I'd be like, do cheating Shong. 251 00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:07.559 He'd be like something to sniping heart. He'd be like, I don't 252 00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:11.599 know how to do that one. I'm not doing it, man, do 253 00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:17.480 excuse me? Do? People were like the weather, what is going on 254 00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:22.640 here? Man? Like? People got coming to me. He's like circus 255 00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:26.039 going on up there? Like what's going on? Then the one lady that 256 00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:27.400 showed up and like it could have been a circus, And I don't know 257 00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:33.720 what was I let her do the weather. This cowboy was off doing the 258 00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:38.240 football game or something. And she comes up there the next day or the 259 00:19:38.279 --> 00:19:42.160 next week after that, Monday or whatever. She did that on Friday. 260 00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:47.279 She comes up Monday. She just walked up there, and my boss Jane 261 00:19:47.359 --> 00:19:48.240 comes and gets me. I was in the jock area, you know, 262 00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:52.720 doing my show prep. And he's like, hey man, you got a 263 00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:55.519 visitor here and you got to get rid of her. And I was like 264 00:19:55.519 --> 00:20:00.559 what. He's like, Yeah, back door and I'm like okay. It's 265 00:20:00.599 --> 00:20:03.240 like I'm like, oh, ship like dunk behind the thing. I'm like, 266 00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:07.839 who is that?

I don't know what she would have said, 309 00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.000 but they still fought the poo off.

But 330 00:25:00.400 --> 00:25:04.480 your podcast, though, Mitch, I talked to Adam about a little bit 331 00:25:06.400 --> 00:25:08.640 last week, but not in too much detail, but I was asking about 332 00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:11.759 the name, is it going to change? You guns find the website? 333 00:25:11.799 --> 00:25:14.559 You know, all the questions that he didn't know the answer to because I 334 00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:15.119 was putting him on the spot. He's like, I don't know, man, 335 00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:22.640 I'm sure, man, Yeah, asking those questions is that I don't 336 00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:27.640 want to change the name. I like it. If I type in, 337 00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:33.880 can I plug it? Yeah, it's only I'm kind of hard trying to 338 00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:37.640 find a like a nineteen twenty year old. That was episode two. We 339 00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:42.000 found one. I have to get all up in it. That was episode 340 00:25:42.039 --> 00:25:48.279 three. After we found him, WHA got you away? That was episode 341 00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:56.240 four, didn't let him go? But I don't know, Like, if 342 00:25:56.240 --> 00:26:00.920 you type in, type in redacted, were over your mind and google it, 343 00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:08.160 pops it right up and I like it? This is my secret is 344 00:26:10.039 --> 00:26:14.960 I like it because it's it's searchable. And what that means is when somebody 345 00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:19.880 in the se O world, when somebody types in redacted for something else, 346 00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:26.160 I might be in their research results. Is that a little slimy in the 347 00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:30.160 se O world kind of Do I care? Not really, But I'm just 348 00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:33.920 saying, if you go to yeah, we're redacted recover your mind. Go 349 00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:40.480 to Mitch dot com for you know, like that. That's my thing is 350 00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:47.599 like it would be easy to find it, oh dot com. And we're 351 00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:52.960 very young, so I haven't gotten the the website yet. And that's where 352 00:26:55.480 --> 00:27:00.200 it's just it's it's a little expensive, a little expensive. I'm not there 353 00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:06.119 yet. Well, we're learning how to fundraise, so not that I want 354 00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:15.960 somebody to run out and buy this, but redacted, Okay, what rea 355 00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:19.279 not doing it? It just tricked to me. Oh, I think if 356 00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:22.720 I hit this button, nobody can else hear. I don't know how to 357 00:27:22.720 --> 00:27:29.319 eve work this board yet. But yeah, there's there's there's something that you 358 00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:33.279 might be able to get that that could be pretty cool. But the podcast, 359 00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:36.640 but what was the last episode about. I'm listening to it tonight. 360 00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:41.920 So we talked about what's going on over in Israel and how it could line 361 00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:45.960 up biblically with prophecy and stuff like that. WHOA didn't even think about that? 362 00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:52.319 Yeah, oh we've been thinking. Adam and I identified that we need 363 00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:57.000 to be more educated about what we're talking about. But then we also talked 364 00:27:57.000 --> 00:28:07.720 about we shifted gear and started talking about giant ancient trees Okay, a lot 365 00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:15.640 of people are saying that there are some mountain tops and quote unquote volcanoes that 366 00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:19.359 are actually petrified giant tree stumps, and if you look at them in their 367 00:28:19.400 --> 00:28:26.640 structure, it looks kind of similar. And there's myths about giant trees and 368 00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:30.759 multiple different belief systems. The Bible brings it up, which Adam and I 369 00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:34.440 both have kind of a basis in that, so we always bring that up 370 00:28:34.440 --> 00:28:40.319 and we try to pull out some of the other some of the other belief 371 00:28:40.319 --> 00:28:45.640 systems to get all up in it. Yep. And we capped off the 372 00:28:45.400 --> 00:28:56.960 talk with cryptozoology, you know, mister Foot, Bigfoot and Lockness heard there 373 00:28:56.000 --> 00:29:00.720 was a really bad video that just came out that's usually big waiting by a 374 00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:04.880 train or watching the train go by, or I haven't seen that one, 375 00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:11.480 but it's probably the train you were talking about earlier. No, no, 376 00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:15.200 it's a it's a video like I heard him talking about on the ticket and 377 00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:19.759 they're saying something about it and with this new Bigfoot video, and is it 378 00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:23.599 really grainy because that seems to be the thing with them. But you know, 379 00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:26.960 there's a lot of theories about that stuff. And I was asking Adam 380 00:29:27.039 --> 00:29:32.000 like what's his what's his favorite, or which one does he think is actually 381 00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:37.160 possible. We pondered for a little bit, so Adam thinks that if any 382 00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:41.200 of them could be real, he thinks it's a bigfoot. That's a little 383 00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:48.240 Mexican creature. We we talked about that a little bit. It's actually in 384 00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:57.480 the the episode art right in the middle and uh so because the original myth 385 00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:03.079 made it like this little devil creature that sucks the blood out of goats and 386 00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:10.960 chickens. But it's kind of changed recently because they actually found a creature that 387 00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:15.839 they think it could be, which is actually like this weird hairless dog thing 388 00:30:15.079 --> 00:30:25.640 down in Central America, Mexico, Southwest America. It found it looks like 389 00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:30.640 a big like if a chohuaba went Hulk, but black and not green. 390 00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:37.640 So it's interesting. So I talked about those because that's something that really exists. 391 00:30:37.759 --> 00:30:41.079 But is it actually what people were seeing back in the day, or 392 00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:45.000 we just put like swapping it into the myth because we think it's fun. 393 00:30:45.920 --> 00:30:49.960 Or we talked about a couple other little little beliefs about it. And I 394 00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:52.720 don't want to give away everything, so people have to go listen to the 395 00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:59.000 podcast Little Mystery. I'm trying to look for your website on here. It's 396 00:30:59.000 --> 00:31:04.759 supposed to have it RSS dot com, slash redacted, Recovery your Mind or 397 00:31:04.799 --> 00:31:07.839 something like that, right, But isn't there supposed to be a link to 398 00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:11.960 your website here? No? I already said, like, we don't have 399 00:31:11.039 --> 00:31:15.599 an actual thought. They gave you a free website. No. That's the 400 00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:21.160 one thing that I actually was a little perturbed about with going to RSS because 401 00:31:21.160 --> 00:31:29.200 it says that you get a free customizable website. It's not a thing. 402 00:31:29.920 --> 00:31:36.480 The website that you get is RSS dot com, and the customizable part is 403 00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:41.599 you can add links and buttons to certain things, like if you have your 404 00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:45.920 own website, you can add a link to it, and that makes it 405 00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:51.960 customizable. The rest of the experience has been pleasurable. I like it. 406 00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:57.559 Yeah, so I do like it, But that one was just a slight 407 00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:02.240 bit miss leading. But I kind of go, you know, we're getting 408 00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:08.640 that free six months, So I forgave them. Yeah, they I don't 409 00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:12.440 know. I found them because I was looking for a different place to go 410 00:32:12.480 --> 00:32:15.839 besides Spreaker, because Spreaker is damn expensive and once you become a customer, 411 00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:17.720 they don't care about you, and they just charge your credit card me. 412 00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:21.240 You tell them I want to end it, and then they charge you anyway, 413 00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:22.440 and I go, no, you send me that shit back and they 414 00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:25.160 go nope, and you get new credit card information and then they still do 415 00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:29.559 it. Yeah, and I'm like, how is this happening? Like magic? 416 00:32:30.240 --> 00:32:32.960 It's irritating. Yeah, And I said, well, I'll cancel it 417 00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:36.960 and then I'll become a new member again. They're like okay. I'm like, 418 00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:38.119 why don't you just give me the fucking fifty percent off, you know, 419 00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:42.720 quit planning. But so I looked at this one and it seemed all 420 00:32:42.759 --> 00:32:44.599 right. And then I reached out and they're like, hey, we have 421 00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:46.079 a plan for nonprofits. I'm like, all right, that's even sweeter. 422 00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:51.240 And they're like, well, if we do that, then you won't get 423 00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:54.680 the six months free. And I'm like what, Okay, this sounds like 424 00:32:54.720 --> 00:32:59.160 a real deal. You're cutting me since I'm a nonprofit. Now you're gonna 425 00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:01.559 charge me and like the free stuff for six months okay. And then it 426 00:33:01.559 --> 00:33:05.400 became an issue of like they figured something out with that, and then it 427 00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:09.160 was like, okay, well, I have like seven hundred episodes I'm gonna 428 00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:15.680 transfer over there. Oh yeah, not gonna be to do that, not 429 00:33:15.839 --> 00:33:20.359 that nonprofit rate. Okay, well whatever the rate is. I mean, 430 00:33:20.599 --> 00:33:23.519 I have seven hundred I'm bringing over. Oh, well that's gonna be a 431 00:33:23.559 --> 00:33:27.960 problem. I'm like, wait what. It was a bit of a process 432 00:33:28.039 --> 00:33:34.559 with eight episodes, and then I got the guy that worked like the night 433 00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:37.519 shift later responding to another different email, Oh, we can do all that, 434 00:33:37.519 --> 00:33:40.400 that's not no problem, and we can get you a discount for the 435 00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:45.240 nonprofit stuff. I'm like, what is going on? And then the next 436 00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:47.359 day fireback with the guy who didn't know what was going on, and I 437 00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:51.960 couldn't have anything, and I just got real tired of it. And then 438 00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:54.200 it was like, you know, now we have like eight hundred and whatever 439 00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:59.920 episode, So it's yeah, stuck. And if you said it eight was 440 00:34:00.200 --> 00:34:02.640 problem, it wasn't really a problem. But it was a process like it 441 00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:07.640 took four or five days before they're like, all right, you're good, 442 00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:13.239 you can start podcasting again, and which seems a little I mean, it 443 00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:17.199 was a couple back and forth emails. I do think some of their integration 444 00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:22.760 distribution stuff is a little bit easier, a little bit easier I like that 445 00:34:24.519 --> 00:34:29.719 Pandora. We talked about that. Yeah, it was a process I had 446 00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:34.760 had to reach out directly to them. We did not. It was pretty 447 00:34:34.760 --> 00:34:39.000 easy set up. I had a little bit of a hiccup with with getting 448 00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:46.079 it switched over on Apple because they just they like duplicated us. So like 449 00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:51.960 there's two of them, one from the like ones that we did on Spreaker, 450 00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:55.679 and then RSS got involved, and then we got like another one with 451 00:34:55.840 --> 00:35:01.199 the updated information. It's had all of our your episodes and all of our 452 00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:07.239 new episodes. So it was a little interesting. But the Pandora one was 453 00:35:07.239 --> 00:35:12.760 easy. Sending them over to YouTube is a lot easier. I had to 454 00:35:13.920 --> 00:35:22.599 Like, I thought you had background music totally welling up aplane my airplane drop, 455 00:35:23.559 --> 00:35:27.480 but no. And then the YouTube one like it, I had to 456 00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:30.360 get in and put in some information and passwords and stuff. But there's just 457 00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:36.800 a button now, and for some reason YouTube doesn't part where with them saying 458 00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:40.639 the right way, so you can't just publish it and it'll automatically go out. 459 00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:45.440 But it's as easy as publishing it. It automatically goes out to all 460 00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:47.440 the other ones, and then you just hit an extra button and then shoots 461 00:35:47.440 --> 00:35:52.480 it to YouTube before you and now, because one thing I hate about Spreaker 462 00:35:52.559 --> 00:35:55.320 is when we publish it to YouTube, it has like this ugly like Spreaker 463 00:35:55.920 --> 00:36:00.840 background. Have you looked at our YouTube? No? So I didn't like 464 00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:08.360 the background either through Spreaker and it's there's still a background through RSS, but 465 00:36:08.519 --> 00:36:14.519 it's much more pleasing to the eyes. I would say, kind of goes 466 00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:17.400 with whatever. It picks kind of a color scheme that you have in your 467 00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:22.400 art in the middle and does the background with that. But it it just 468 00:36:22.440 --> 00:36:28.880 looks smoother. I like it more. So. Guess if I knew coding, 469 00:36:28.960 --> 00:36:31.320 I understand how to open it and change it. But I don't know. 470 00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:36.039 I don't even know if that's could you do that? I don't know. 471 00:36:36.519 --> 00:36:42.000 Probably not Speaker. I wouldn't guess that they make that changeable, but 472 00:36:42.159 --> 00:36:44.159 I really don't know. They told me, I know, we can't do 473 00:36:44.239 --> 00:36:47.480 that. Oh yeah you can, because you added that to it. Take 474 00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:53.320 that off and add my thanks. Yeah, that'll be an extra you know. 475 00:36:53.440 --> 00:37:00.920 Seven Yeah, because I don't like them back up, like, I'll 476 00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:04.000 change I have to change the thumbnail because the thumbnail is stupid, So I 477 00:37:04.079 --> 00:37:07.400 have to change the thumbnail because it has their little speaker thing on there, 478 00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:10.239 and I change into whatever you know I'm talking about. Usually today it'll be 479 00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:14.800 hot Buttons. Well that's what I say when I say the podcast art. 480 00:37:15.239 --> 00:37:19.960 That's a thumbnail. But it's easy, like I usually make an image or 481 00:37:20.159 --> 00:37:22.880 find one. I've made a couple of them. Some of them are kind 482 00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:25.400 of obvious, and I do that on purpose because it's kind of silly. 483 00:37:25.880 --> 00:37:30.119 You know, we talk about a couple of different things, so I'll hoshpodge 484 00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:32.679 them together. But there was one that I made that looked like it really 485 00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:40.280 came that way and it was pretty neat. So so if you're recommending someone 486 00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:43.559 who's out there is like, man, I'm gonna start my own podcasts. 487 00:37:43.559 --> 00:37:46.199 These idiots can they did podcasts on Hot Buttons, you know, like the 488 00:37:46.320 --> 00:37:52.440 stupid I'm gonna start my own. Would you recommend a different one? Would 489 00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:58.199 you recommend spreaker or RSS? Like, I think it depends on what you 490 00:37:58.280 --> 00:38:04.280 have. What might recommendation would go. If you have a board and you 491 00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:08.119 can do it that way, I would recommend RSS first. Don't get excited 492 00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:12.559 about the free website, but the rest of it seems to work pretty well. 493 00:38:13.599 --> 00:38:19.800 If you aren't doing that using US B mics and you would like a 494 00:38:19.800 --> 00:38:24.079 a studio or maybe you can afford Adobe or whatever the whatever it is, 495 00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:30.039 UH, speakers studio isn't terrible. It's kind of like having a board right 496 00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:34.960 on your right on your your or your you know, PC laptop, whatever 497 00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:39.519 you're using, and it's not hard to use, and then it integrates right 498 00:38:39.559 --> 00:38:47.360 into two speaker and it's easy to post and stuff. So I think if 499 00:38:47.400 --> 00:38:52.719 you're just starting out, speakers a good idea. And the cool thing about 500 00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:58.239 that is RSS always kind of has this deal going on. I don't know 501 00:38:58.239 --> 00:39:00.320 how long it's gonna last, but it's like what you wanted us to do, 502 00:39:00.639 --> 00:39:07.599 where if you're transferring from a different platform, you get six months free, 503 00:39:07.880 --> 00:39:12.320 and so it kind of makes sense to do that anyway. I didn't 504 00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:15.880 want to do it because I was so I get worried about starting new things 505 00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:19.440 and it gives me anxiety. So I was just like, we'll just do 506 00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:22.679 it and just pay it and not worry about the free because it's affordable too. 507 00:39:22.920 --> 00:39:28.079 There are other platforms out there that I haven't tried, but RSS is 508 00:39:28.559 --> 00:39:34.239 pretty affordable and it works pretty well with what it does for how much you 509 00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:36.960 pay for it. There are other ones out there. I don't know if 510 00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:42.320 they smell better or something, but they're like three four times as much. 511 00:39:43.519 --> 00:39:45.119 I know how that works and what it comes with. Maybe they have somebody 512 00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:51.360 to do it for you. I don't know, but it works really well 513 00:39:51.639 --> 00:39:55.480 and I think it actually is just a little bit less expensive than Speaker on 514 00:39:55.639 --> 00:40:00.480 the normal. Yeah. But yeah, so beginners probably safe go with Spreaker. 515 00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:05.280 If you've got all the the like a board and a little bit more 516 00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:07.079 equipment. RSS is probably a way to go. But you mean you got 517 00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:12.679 to mix it down yourself and stuff like that, so do your editing. 518 00:40:13.280 --> 00:40:16.519 Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, I would say Spreaker. I like their 519 00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:22.280 app on their phone, Like if we're driving or something, then I usually 520 00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:25.639 stop, of course to start. It's this one dude, to be safe. 521 00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:31.400 Yeah, And I have like little clip on mics, their little USB 522 00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:35.320 mics or whatever, and I can plug it right into my iPhone and record 523 00:40:35.320 --> 00:40:38.480 it as I'm all right. I mean, it's nothing too crazy, but 524 00:40:39.159 --> 00:40:42.760 I do like that. But yeah, the speaker at the price. Once 525 00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:45.360 they got you, there's no like, hey, we want to thank you 526 00:40:45.360 --> 00:40:49.000 for being with us, with us for five years and there's none of that. 527 00:40:49.760 --> 00:40:52.039 There's like, hey, cool, we're just gonna take your money. 528 00:40:52.039 --> 00:40:57.039 Thinks that blows. Yeah, that does blow, and it's it's quite expensive, 529 00:40:57.119 --> 00:41:00.000 so I would say, but yeah, you know, try speaker out, 530 00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:05.320 try being cast or pop Bean or whatever it is, and just try 531 00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:07.159 them all out, you know, especially if they have a free trial. 532 00:41:07.239 --> 00:41:10.079 Do that. And like Mitch said, there's the RSS dot com. They 533 00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:14.039 will give you six months free if you switch over, so you have to 534 00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:17.360 have your podcast going for like a month on a different platform. I have 535 00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:28.760 a question, is RSS like the og podcast platform because podcasts they're like, 536 00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:35.079 they're called RSS feeds and that's RSS dot com. Did they do that to 537 00:41:35.119 --> 00:41:39.519 make themselves more popular or were they the first I haven't read their Wikipedia page. 538 00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:45.599 I'm not sure. I'll jump on Potpedia later, and yeah, I 539 00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:51.079 don't know the story behind I haven't watched them behind the podcast on them yet. 540 00:41:51.199 --> 00:41:53.000 It got me thinking and I was like, maybe these guys are like 541 00:41:54.400 --> 00:42:01.800 the original, But I don't know. It's all relatively what someone wants and 542 00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:07.840 what they have and what they have access to. But I appreciate you coming 543 00:42:07.880 --> 00:42:10.880 on today to talk about podcasting. Mentioned talk about your podcasts. I can't 544 00:42:10.880 --> 00:42:14.800 wait to kind of help you with a little bit more. And I think 545 00:42:14.840 --> 00:42:16.760 you guys are going get you got headphones. I'm so excited. Like game 546 00:42:16.880 --> 00:42:22.360 changer, right, it was so much different, Like the whole I think 547 00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:27.400 you'll be able to tell if somebody comes to our podcast down the road and 548 00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:31.360 starts listening from the beginning, they'll be able to tell. And like those 549 00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:37.159 guys got new headphones that day. The whole feel and vibe of everything was 550 00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:42.800 just more laid back and less. We were thinking about less and trying to 551 00:42:42.880 --> 00:42:46.039 listen and do less. There's there's less anxiety involved, so you get to 552 00:42:46.039 --> 00:42:51.840 really just kind of sit there and do the podcast, which was nice. 553 00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:54.679 And even before this podcast, it's like gotta go grab the headphones, you 554 00:42:54.719 --> 00:43:00.320 know, like that what's up? That's what's up? So Justin's a week 555 00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:01.800 over there. Yeah, okay, we gotta go get your hair did, 556 00:43:01.920 --> 00:43:07.360 so you should wrap it up.

We're all about finding that thing that helps 568 00:43:57.159 --> 00:44:00.760 you in recovery. And for some reason, I don't like to say what 569 00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:05.519 keeps you sober, because it's not just about being sober, it's really about 570 00:44:05.559 --> 00:44:09.639 being in recovery, and that encompasses more than just your sobriety.
