This is the two seventeen Recovery Podcast
with Corey Winfield. Yeah, it's hard

2
00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:10.279
right now. It's tough. It
sucks. You want to crawl a hole

3
00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:13.960
and die. But this could be
the best thing that's ever happened to you.

4
00:00:14.039 --> 00:00:17.839
Justin Burke, then we actually take
better care of her than our plants

5
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:22.839
are you're talking about Susan. You're
back on that, Yeah, and Mitchell

6
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:30.160
old Brian. I watered all of
the plants, all of them. It

7
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:35.719
is the twenty third of February twenty
twenty four. My name is Corey Winfield

8
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:40.240
and this is the two seventeen Recovery
Podcast, joined in the North studio by

9
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:46.240
Justin Burke, What up and Mitchell
O'Brien. It's good to be back.

10
00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:50.439
Nice. Got the plants. I
watered the miles. Susan, her cage

11
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:55.520
is taking care of always. It's
a fun Friday, so we're gonna have

12
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:58.439
today. It's a fun Friday.
Justin, you're actually off today? Yep,

13
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:03.719
yep? How's that? The time
going poorly? I have major commitment

14
00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:07.200
issues. I love it when you
take time off and then you never get

15
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:11.719
to take it off. It's beautiful, I know, it's like it's like

16
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:17.120
what a boss wants to see besides
commitment, ask kissing on social media,

17
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:19.480
which which, by the way,
you know this guy, there's a difference

18
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:23.799
between as kissing and flattery. You
know, it's I'm trying to flatter you.

19
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:27.640
That's it's actually quite offensive, you
know, but if you generally mean

20
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:30.760
it, which I think Justin does
mean it, you know, because I'm

21
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:34.920
pretty good boss, you know,
almost say I meant no boss. The

22
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:41.879
timing was sus for me. Yeah, it was after my disappointment of last

23
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:46.480
week. Oh, I mean I
forgot about that, but you did.

24
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:49.640
It's so funny because like every week
we do check ins, you know,

25
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.760
we sit down and we do them
together, and we go over check and

26
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:56.519
sheet, you know, like what's
what's your obstacles, What's what's the good

27
00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:00.319
things happening? You know with some
goals, And you guys start and like

28
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:08.360
battling each other of who had like
the most yeah sg sheets, you know,

29
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:13.639
and obstacles and self pity, and
you're like, oh, just you

30
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:15.680
were winding on yours and you're like, oh, yeah, well you wind

31
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:17.960
on yours too, about oh I
don't know how to do this or I

32
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:22.800
can need more time to do this, and it was just back and forth.

33
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:25.879
And where I was coming from is
you put what our obstacle is.

34
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:32.039
And so I put an obstacle in
there, and somebody in this room put

35
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:38.240
his whole sheet. The goals and
everything were I'm not gonna feel everybody again

36
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:52.159
or disappoint my boss. And yeah, so just put your winding in the

37
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:54.800
winding slot. Obstacles and that's all
I'm saying. I think we all,

38
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:57.680
I mean, we all mess up. I mean, it's just it's a

39
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.840
fact of life. It's how we
learn. You know. I messed up

40
00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:07.360
with the irs. Yeah, it's
never good. And it wasn't a mess

41
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:09.319
up, it just was late.
I was on Corey Time and the IRS

42
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:13.199
was like, we don't play Corey
Time here, You're fine, And I

43
00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:16.240
was like, but we don't even
pay you taxes like what you like,

44
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:21.800
that's why we get fined. Holy
cow man, Like that's a kick in

45
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.759
the nuts. Yeah, but I
learned. I learned. I did learn

46
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:30.400
it, my god. So yeah, that sucks. So you know,

47
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:35.280
everybody makes mistakes whatever, but it's
just are they repeated two out of three

48
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:42.159
people have issues with the I R
s Oh okay, wow. Just statistically

49
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.400
in this room. Well, I
mean you don't have an issue with them.

50
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:46.719
No, I got money back.
I'm gonna get money back every every

51
00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:50.719
year get my taxi done. And
I had to pay them so they get

52
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:53.919
send money to Ukraine this year too, bastards. That's fucked. Like Michigan,

53
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:57.280
I was like cool. I mean
it kind of evened out, but

54
00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:59.240
still it's like, why now I
got pay the Feds to some money to

55
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:02.120
Ukraine or wherever else I'll sending it, you know, like that kisses me

56
00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:04.840
off? Does that work? Like? Can I just keep my seven hundred

57
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:09.520
and they can send someone else's money
over there. I don't even know what's

58
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:11.560
going on in this radio station.
I listen to Out of Dallas, like

59
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:13.759
the morning show, and I don't
know what's going on. I don't know

60
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:17.040
what's real in the world sometimes,
you know, like when Kyrie Irving came

61
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:19.879
out with the basketball player Place for
Dallas, when he came out and said,

62
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:25.319
oh, I believe the world's not
round, And he wasn't really saying

63
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.879
that, he was just saying he
doesn't have enough information on his own,

64
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.959
and if he went around believing what
everybody told him, he'd be the stupid

65
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.560
person. You know, and I
think a lot of times people just believe

66
00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:40.560
what people tell them. Oh yeah, you know if you saw a TV

67
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:43.439
commercial and you're like, this is
the best Ford ever because it has the

68
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:54.199
toughest hit a tailgate. No,
it has the toughest new titanium to put

69
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.839
on the sides of it, so
it don't rust out like every other piece

70
00:04:56.879 --> 00:04:59.560
of Ford crap does, you know? And you'd be like, damn,

71
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:02.720
it's got the new titan And you
start telling people that you don't know that

72
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:05.800
for sure, you weren't the scientists
who put it together. You know,

73
00:05:05.879 --> 00:05:11.680
you didn't make the new titanium rustproof
because clearly Ford, you know, they

74
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:15.279
don't care about your Ford rusting away. They kind of pride themselves in that.

75
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:16.839
They're like I think at their meetings
at Ford, they just sit down

76
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.279
and go, you know what we
need. We need a car that's gonna

77
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:25.040
run about twenty years but only lasts
about four years on the outside. That

78
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:30.680
way, people know that's for tough
and then dissolves like like eco friendly toilet

79
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:31.639
paper. Yeah, and you know
we'll do We'll get that guy that goes

80
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:34.720
out to them dirty jobs places.
We'll get him to voice it because you

81
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:40.639
don't like him. Yeah, yeah, he's Ford tough, built, Ford

82
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:44.680
tough. Yeah, America, and
we just still let up North. We'll

83
00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:47.879
be fine. The South people people
from South allbutt anyway because it's tough and

84
00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:53.279
they like rust anyway, they get
pissed off and their stuff doesn't rust.

85
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:57.800
The northern Michigan people are so well
because it's just gonna not even exist.

86
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:02.040
Yeah. But my point though is
I don't even know I was someone k

87
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:06.399
and believing stuff that you're told.
What was before that? We got like

88
00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:10.319
somebody leaving a long message on our
answer me sure right now. So I

89
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:12.839
was trying to kind of talk over
that so like people wouldn't hear the whole

90
00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:15.000
message, and then calling the person
back. And I'm still trying to do

91
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:17.480
that right now. But we'll see
because it's still going. Yeah, if

92
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:20.399
that helps or not, I mean, whatever they need, clearly we are

93
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:26.360
not going to provide it at this
moment. They're trying to figure out what

94
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:30.519
I was even talking about. So
I believed you because you told me,

95
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:38.279
yeah that actually was really happening.
But with was that talking about the governor

96
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:41.759
or something? No, Well,
it started with sending the money to Ukraine

97
00:06:41.800 --> 00:06:44.800
and I was thinking, oh,
yeah, yeah, they send the donut

98
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:48.240
shops money to Ukraine exactly. Man, they closed down for a day because

99
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:53.360
they cared about something. I don't
really know us. Oh that's totally different.

100
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:58.240
But my point though is that I
don't really know. All I know

101
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:00.680
is what's on TV, what people
are telling me. And I heard one

102
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:03.759
person say, well, Putin was
just bored and decided he was going to

103
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:08.439
attack him. He's crazy. Like
so you just sit around one day and

104
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:10.600
like, I'm bored. I was
just attacked this other country. And then

105
00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:12.439
I heard it was like a bunch
of other things, and I heard they

106
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:14.439
were like terrorist tacks included. I
don't even know. I don't know if

107
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:18.120
that's true either, but I just
don't believe what's on TV. In this

108
00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:23.720
radio station I was to every day, the guy makes the reference about how

109
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:27.079
Russia is out there killing kids and
killing this and killing that. Well,

110
00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:29.959
it depends what country you talk to. They would say the same thing about

111
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:33.399
us. And like yesterday when the
whole at and t or all the cell

112
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:36.839
phones so like not ours, but
like cell phones were like shutting down,

113
00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:42.279
and one of our top officials supposedly
I heard it from the same radio station

114
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:48.120
said that we could expect to be
hacked. We expect China Russia to attack

115
00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:53.720
our infrastructure and they go after our
cell towers and hack into them and stuff

116
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:59.560
and Russia. That's what they said, So most be true, right,

117
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:03.839
But you know, and my whole
counterpoint to that is, okay, so

118
00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:09.959
why would they expect that? Did
China catch us hacking into theirs? Probably

119
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:13.759
because I'm sure we're hacking in some
shit, you know, So like if

120
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.160
we called that, I mean,
they fly of freaking weather blue. And

121
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.360
that's how old school they are.
They're like, look at this up here.

122
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:26.279
Meanwhile they're they'll bait and switch.
Yeah and yeah, I guarantee you

123
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:28.639
we're doing it, And wouldn't you
want to be doing it? So the

124
00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:31.920
same time, you know, you
take someone from China or these other countries,

125
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:33.679
wouldn't you want your country to be
doing that? Well? And if

126
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:37.360
somebody attacked us, would you what
do you think we would do? Think

127
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.080
about this. The government wants to
it's people to believe certain things, to

128
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:45.919
do certain things. So how does
that look? You have a government wants

129
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:50.360
you to hate another government, So
create a big bad wolf m hm.

130
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:54.240
And then create a situation that big
bad wolf is doing to make other people

131
00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:58.919
afraid. So then your people will
now back you to go and do it

132
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.679
you want to them because you made
him live in fear. Yeah. So

133
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:09.279
am I saying that's what's happening,
that's all fear. No, but I'm

134
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.080
saying that it feels like it's happening. Oh, that happens because our news

135
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:18.440
is very one sided against let's just
say putin. You know, we only

136
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:22.320
ever hear about the bad things he
does. We don't ever hear about anything

137
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:26.159
good that he does. I don't
know. I watched his interview with Tucker

138
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:31.200
and it was quite yeah, and
it was quite informational. I felt,

139
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:35.639
you know, he gave a long
history of Russia and you know, and

140
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.600
said that he tried making peace with
like the United States, with multiple different

141
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:46.120
presidents, and it got him nowhere. You know, he's always been shunned

142
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:50.639
as like a horrible person when he
just tries to help. And because he

143
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:56.480
claims that he's the biggest land mass
country there is in the world, so

144
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:01.639
everyone feels threatened by him. I
feel more threatened than the fact that he's

145
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:07.639
a president's air quotes there. Yeah, how long has he been the president

146
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:13.159
twenty some years. Yeah, that's
not a presidential like. Well, that's

147
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:16.320
just because that's what we were brought
up and raised in. You know,

148
00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:18.759
our government only does four year terms. Yeah, we like, we like

149
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:24.320
to share our scamming. That's a
you know, and that's what we do.

150
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.840
That's an emperor. That's doesn't make
it wrong, you know. And

151
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:31.000
just because you're not like us,
you know, yeah, and we're not.

152
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:33.519
I'm not saying Putin's good or bad. I don't know, you know,

153
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.320
And has he done bad things?
Absolutely? Has this country done bad

154
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:41.200
things? America? Oh? Absolutely? You know, Like there's nobody who's

155
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:43.960
just sitting over there, maybe Sweden
or something of just clean hands, going

156
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:48.360
hey Canada. No Canada, Canada
kicks us out. Yeah, you can't

157
00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:52.480
go there, drunk driving charge or
something. But I don't even like Canada.

158
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:54.360
I don't even want to go to
Canada. Nothing there for me.

159
00:10:54.399 --> 00:11:00.279
He thinks, Tell that to your
prime minister. Same think about that their

160
00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:05.480
fake ass eyebrows. Yeah, ain't
nobody trying to stop from the mounted pulled

161
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:11.320
police? Come buddy, I don't
even pull you over, like, take

162
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:13.000
your hat off. Son. I
got picked up by Canadian police once.

163
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:16.799
I think I talked about that on
the podcast once we were in Your Bear

164
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:22.960
Mask there, I was sixteen years
old by dirty magazine. Oh, let's

165
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:26.320
hear the story about the Mounted police
getting I know that. I'm pretty sure

166
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:31.639
that none of my family actually listened. So, sixteen years old, I

167
00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:35.320
went to Canada with my best friend
and his family and another family that we

168
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.799
need through church, okay, and
they were gonna be there for two weeks.

169
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:41.080
I had my first job at the
time. I could only get one

170
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:46.840
week off, and so we were
camping right on northern Lake Superior, not

171
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:52.519
far from like sus Saint Marie,
like an hour up hour up the coast,

172
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:58.279
and like our campsite was like right
on Lake Superior, right right there.

173
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.919
Yeah, So we were in this
rusted campground in about half a mile

174
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:09.799
down the road was where the camps
store. But it wasn't like any camps

175
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:15.240
or like campgrounds in America because it
was it was kind of like what we

176
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.039
know as a party store. Then
there was a post office and then like

177
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:24.759
a boutique and you could get your
currency exchanged there. So it was like

178
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:26.960
a general store. But there were
like three stores. It's three seven stores,

179
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:30.480
all right, there, but it
was also where you went to like

180
00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:35.279
the campground office to like get your
campsite. Either way, you had to

181
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:37.840
walk down like the highway if you
wanted to get there walking, and some

182
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:39.759
of my friend and I would do
that every once in a while. And

183
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:45.039
they're just a little bit more loose
right up there with their magazines that a

184
00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:52.639
teenage boy would enjoy. So we
were down there buying snacks. I'm getting

185
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.879
that new Dick Hunter magazine. We
didn't swing that way, but anyway,

186
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:03.080
so we got our our treasures and
our plastic bag and from the store,

187
00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:07.200
and we're talking about how we're gonna
sneak back into our campsite and our tents

188
00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:11.240
and so we didn't get caught by
the parents, and all of a sudden,

189
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:16.480
this cop pulls up behind us.
Yeah, it was a regular cop

190
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:18.360
car. I was expecting a guy
in a red suit on a moose.

191
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:22.240
But we're like, what are you
trying to stop us? For, officer,

192
00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:26.279
We're I mean, we're just these
two basically kids that have never really

193
00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:31.360
been in trouble before. So we're
looking at him and he waves us over.

194
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:35.279
We're on the side of the highway. Waved him over. Yeah,

195
00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:39.159
you come over here, buddy.
My dumb ass friend goes to the roadside

196
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:41.519
and the cops like, no,
over there, idiot, and like rolls

197
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:45.960
his window down so we won't go
over there, and we're like, hello,

198
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:48.200
officer. None of us have dealt
with police on any kind of a

199
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:56.440
real way other than religious as hell
or we met it. That was the

200
00:13:56.440 --> 00:14:01.799
whole thing is I'm sitting there with
what I think is like a arrestable offense

201
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:07.120
in my hand, and it's just
a like sports illustrated bikini edition whatever.

202
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:09.480
It wasn't even like it wasn't even
a good one, But I mean,

203
00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:13.240
you didn't need that when you're a
church teenager, that was like good enough.

204
00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:18.639
Really depends what church you want to
do. Well. He says that

205
00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:24.440
there's some two dudes that were harassing
women back at the little store place that

206
00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:28.519
we were walking from, and we
told him, you know, well,

207
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:31.960
no, we're our parents are right
over here, his parents are right over

208
00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:33.720
here, and it's we're just walking
back. He's like, all right,

209
00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:37.720
get in and I'll take you over
there and verify your story because he said

210
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:43.320
the other the dudes were older,
but since we were too male, he

211
00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:48.000
wanted to make sure age profiling,
yeah pretty much, or yeah, yeah,

212
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.679
gender profiling. Two males. So
we roll into our campsite in this

213
00:14:52.840 --> 00:14:56.480
police car and my buddy's dad is
standing right there and he was pretty nice

214
00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:00.840
guy. He was a science teacher
or science biology, can't remember over in

215
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:07.440
Kingsley here, and the look on
his face is priceless. I'll never forget

216
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:11.159
it because it just looked like,
what in the hell did you two do?

217
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:16.399
I'm going to kill you? Like
yeah, And just even though we're

218
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:18.879
a little bit nervous because of our
sassy magazines that we have with us,

219
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:22.600
we both heard just this big huge
smile on our faces because we know we're

220
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.600
not actually in trouble with the cop. And we're sitting in the back seat

221
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:33.519
of this cop card pulling up to
this this campsite just like and then he

222
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:35.960
lets us out and he's like,
all right, I'm gonna talk to your

223
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:39.759
dad. And so the dad comes
over and we scurry off to the hide

224
00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:46.519
the magazine underneath the mattress, the
cotton and her tent and Scott free with

225
00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:52.879
that one. He's like, I
thought you guys were in actual trouble,

226
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:54.320
and I was like, well,
neither of us have ever actually done anything.

227
00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.279
But yeah, I thought that was
gonna be a good story. It

228
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:03.399
was a good story for me.
I mean, that's a good story mention.

229
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:07.440
I'm glad you told it. And
that's that's Is that the story you're

230
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:10.279
going to tell that recovery stories?
Yeah, I think so. That's when

231
00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:14.720
it started. Yeah, okay,
because we do have an event coming up.

232
00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:18.480
It's less than a week away.
It's Thursday, twenty ninth of Februar,

233
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:22.960
and you guys are both telling the
story part of it, which is

234
00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:26.039
supposed to be three to five minutes
long, and you don't you don't tell

235
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:30.759
your whole story. There's a guy
that took the training with us when I

236
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:33.320
took the training, actual training,
and that's the thing, Like I took

237
00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:37.120
a training for you guys have not. So I kind of feel bad that

238
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:40.480
I'm just throwing you guys up there
to be like, hey, go do

239
00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:42.159
it and don't suck. But we're
going to practice on it today, I

240
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:45.879
think. But me and like I
don't know the other four people that went.

241
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:52.519
We did the training and we did
it and it was good. And

242
00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:59.360
the fact that you guys are going
up there and hopefully you can tell a

243
00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:02.960
pretty good story. But I'm again, I'm just killing time because Mitch was

244
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:04.880
moving his microphone because we heard someone
come in. We were trying to figure

245
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:11.480
it out. So I was just
your wife, just adding nothing messaging.

246
00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:17.839
I'm adding Mitch stories to the podcast. Here formative memory of mine. I

247
00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:22.440
got picked up by the cops in
Canada. It was fun, okay.

248
00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:26.720
Note to self, never mentioned Canada
and an amount of the police again because

249
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.359
I'm never going to Canada anyway,
So who cares? But are you guys

250
00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:33.519
ready for your story? Though?
I guess it was my question. I

251
00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:38.759
feel more ready than I think you
think I feel. Have you timed it?

252
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:44.400
I have not, other than we
did. Any of you guys been

253
00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:48.519
practicing in the car? Yeah?
What do you think I do with all

254
00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:53.279
my free time in the you call
Mitchell? Pretty much? All right?

255
00:17:53.319 --> 00:17:57.000
So rose Jay, who's going to
be telling the story, also, she's

256
00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:02.680
coming in today to practice her stuff
and get it all good to go.

257
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:07.960
But I think it'll be fine,
and it's kind of worried that there'll be

258
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:11.559
too many people there. But the
first one, if you haven't seen it

259
00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:14.680
yet, the videos out it's on
YouTube. There's a link to that at

260
00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:18.319
two seventeen recovery dot com. It's
like an hour long, but the recovery

261
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:22.359
stories, like I said, are
three to five minutes. And then we

262
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:26.519
have speakers. We have Jeff and
we have Mike, which would be really

263
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:30.079
really good. I'm really excited about
that. And then we have our tubing

264
00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:33.799
event coming up that's on March sixth. Yep. So we got some things

265
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:36.920
kind of back to back sort of
which keeps us busy. And that's just

266
00:18:36.920 --> 00:18:38.920
the phone Mitch, if you can
hear it. Yeah, people do call

267
00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:41.640
us like we do work here,
and when you come to my office sometimes

268
00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:45.119
I say, let's do a podcast, and then we do it. And

269
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:48.400
then we spend the first twenty minutes
talking about other stuff and then we dive

270
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:55.759
right into recovery when we got your
ass now. But we do, and

271
00:18:56.039 --> 00:18:57.759
that's kind of part of the podcast. When I was explaining the podcast of

272
00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:00.680
the last people I did and when
I was in Detroit for the training,

273
00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:03.920
I kind of told them it's like, look, we're not going to be,

274
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:07.559
you know, doctor counselor therapist,
even though Marnie's a therapist. But

275
00:19:07.640 --> 00:19:11.359
we don't come on it this podcast
with that approach. You know, we're

276
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:15.599
about having fun in recovery, about
doing doing fun things and admitting things to

277
00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:19.599
ourselves when we need to be held
accountable. You know, are you doing

278
00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:23.079
enough just to get by or are
you doing enough to accomplish your goals?

279
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:26.720
You know, like if you if
you take that into consideration on some of

280
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:30.480
the stuff you do, you'll realize, like, well, maybe I don't

281
00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:33.240
even need to be doing that,
you know, if I'm just half asking

282
00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:37.440
it, if I'm just going through
the motions, so maybe this isn't the

283
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:38.720
motion I need to be going through. I mean, justin you said,

284
00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:45.720
I was putting that have a new
camera cabinet that keeps my cameras because they

285
00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:48.319
were just on the floor and I'm
always trying to step on them and run

286
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:49.920
them over and a chair. And
I was like, man, I gotta

287
00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:52.480
do something about that. So I
bought this kit and I put it together.

288
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:57.119
We get it all the way together
pretty much. And on the back

289
00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:00.200
because I have to have lights on
everything apparently, and they had like these

290
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:04.960
little quarter sized holes for you to
put your lights through on each shelf,

291
00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:07.599
so there's like three or four of
them. Well, the back one.

292
00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:11.559
I had told Marty about do something, and I grabbed it and I put

293
00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:15.319
it on wrong, so it was
on the other side. So like,

294
00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:18.759
okay, So I imagine, if
you're looking at a shelf on the right

295
00:20:18.759 --> 00:20:21.960
hand side, you get a hole
top right hand corner, top right hand

296
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:26.400
corner, top rank, bottom left. And I was like, shit,

297
00:20:27.160 --> 00:20:30.440
it's funny. And I was like, well, you gotta do it,

298
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.559
Mary, I don know. I'm
like nope. I mean, if you're

299
00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:36.920
going to do it, do it
right. So he flipped it back over,

300
00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:41.519
took it apart, flipped it and
put it all back together. But

301
00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:48.079
you know, why half asset?
Why I have it look stupid? And

302
00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:51.599
I'm glad that I did. Otherwise
I'd be sitting here every day walking and

303
00:20:51.640 --> 00:20:52.680
going why didn't I just do that
the right? Yeah, it would have

304
00:20:52.680 --> 00:20:56.720
taken me another fifteen minutes, but
it would have been done right. You

305
00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:59.440
know. I think a lot of
people want to take that easy way,

306
00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:02.839
even when you really, ah,
damn it. Eh, that's all right,

307
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:04.480
and some things you can do that
with that's fine. But I'm just

308
00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:07.680
saying for me, it works out
better because I seriously, every day I

309
00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:10.839
would walk in here, I'd be
like, why did I do that?

310
00:21:11.319 --> 00:21:14.720
Now? I got too much stuff
in it. Ah, But that's just

311
00:21:14.839 --> 00:21:18.079
one example that you can give of
like real life, like how are you

312
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:19.559
really doing things? How are you
really living your life? How are you

313
00:21:19.599 --> 00:21:25.799
really approaching things? And if you
can ask yourself that and not everything's going

314
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:27.200
to be perfect, you're not gonna
be one hundred percent of it, but

315
00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:32.720
it'll kind of help you move forward
with what you're doing and what you want

316
00:21:32.759 --> 00:21:34.359
to do, just by how you
do the little things. Sometimes. I'm

317
00:21:34.400 --> 00:21:37.160
definitely going to think about that because
you stared me right in the eyes while

318
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:42.920
you said to all of it,
it's trying to make my point, it's

319
00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:48.039
trying to improve my point. No, because some people just have a different

320
00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:52.319
think on things. So that little
plaque s that's right next to my office,

321
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:55.160
that says are you doing enough to
get by? Where are you doing

322
00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:59.720
enough to exceed your goals? You
inspired that time? If you didn't share,

323
00:22:00.119 --> 00:22:03.200
Oh no, you don't have to
be sure like it was I remember

324
00:22:03.240 --> 00:22:08.720
that day. Yeah, And because
I think you needed a reminder, so

325
00:22:10.039 --> 00:22:12.200
I gave you one. And I'm
sure somebody has said that before. But

326
00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:17.559
it wasn't like search sayings that are
cool. No, that was like me

327
00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:22.079
typing that out putting it on something, and yeah, I think I put

328
00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:25.480
on two fingers like or hands touching
each other, grabbing or reaching for each

329
00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:27.759
other or something. Put a little
to seventeen down there, little little to

330
00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:30.799
seventeen tattoos. I remember putting that
out too, And I'm like, I

331
00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:33.200
think, I think you'll understand what
I'm talking about. And it's just like,

332
00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:37.720
I think, so for sure,
You're like, I'm sure you put

333
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:41.119
it there because of me. And
I remember the day where Corey's like,

334
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:47.640
I am putting this here because of
Justin. Was that really that bad when

335
00:22:47.680 --> 00:22:51.039
we started? Yeah. The thing
about that, though, Justin, is

336
00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:55.559
when and I like this about you
is if there is a mistake, if

337
00:22:55.599 --> 00:23:00.119
there is, you realize that you're
maybe not doing something to the fullest,

338
00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:04.079
or you need to change how you're
doing something. When Corey tells you to

339
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:08.599
do it, you make an effort
to do better and change. And I

340
00:23:08.640 --> 00:23:14.920
appreciate that. I think that's how
all employees should be. When your employer

341
00:23:14.960 --> 00:23:18.880
tells you this is how you should
be doing it, and I expect it

342
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:25.319
to be this way, you should
conform to that and not go against the

343
00:23:25.359 --> 00:23:29.160
grain. Yeah, this, I
mean, like we have a very unique

344
00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:32.880
situation with a two seventeen recovery center
and with what we do as a recovery

345
00:23:32.920 --> 00:23:34.559
community organization, and there's a lot
of fun that we have and there's a

346
00:23:34.599 --> 00:23:37.319
lot of chances for it, and
there's a lot of like little things that

347
00:23:37.359 --> 00:23:41.359
are just kind of gonna get you
like, oh geez, really, But

348
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:45.000
at the end of the day,
man, this is a really cool job

349
00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:48.519
to have. And were you that
bad? I don't know, but I

350
00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:52.160
noticed it and I expected more from
you. And they say, don't have

351
00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:56.000
expectations, but I don't want to
see people half assed in things, and

352
00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:57.720
I know you're capable of more,
Like when you first started writing blogs.

353
00:23:57.720 --> 00:24:00.680
First I started out like, Hey, this will be a fun game and

354
00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:04.240
everybody involved. And then get you
guys familiar with writing things that you're not

355
00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:07.880
familiar with writing about you know,
And I gave you, guys all kinds

356
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:11.519
of crazy ass topics, but I
let you choose it out of options I

357
00:24:11.559 --> 00:24:15.839
gave you. But still it made
you feel like, well, at least

358
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:18.759
I have some say in this which
will make people want to do it more.

359
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:21.519
And you didn't want to get stuck
with the last one because you're like,

360
00:24:21.559 --> 00:24:23.359
oh no, that one's horrible,
and you guys made the most of

361
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:26.559
it, and then you had fun
with it. And now you guys both

362
00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:29.039
write really really good blogs. I
mean there was a while justin I was

363
00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:30.920
giving you one star every week,
yeah, you know, and then I

364
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:33.640
was like, all right, I
want you guys to write a blog every

365
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:36.680
week. Those are the ones.
I came in and I just snuck right

366
00:24:36.720 --> 00:24:41.480
into my office busted one out and
you could tell yeah you could. And

367
00:24:41.559 --> 00:24:44.920
that's kind of what I was referring
to with the other stuff. It was

368
00:24:44.960 --> 00:24:48.119
just like you were doing just enough
to get by. You know, you

369
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:49.680
weren't going above and beyond. You
weren't. You were just kind of like,

370
00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:52.480
hey, I'm here, it's cool, we made it. Let's go.

371
00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:55.279
And it's like, no, we're
just getting started. Man. I

372
00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:57.160
need you guys, you know,
I need you to do these things and

373
00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:00.160
I need you to be this kind
of kind of way. And you know,

374
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:03.880
we're more than just a oh,
recovery center that holds meetings or more

375
00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:07.559
than recovery coaches, you know,
like we can live our lives in recovery

376
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.200
and put it out there, just
like I did with the podcast, and

377
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:12.759
we can put it out there with
things that we write about and talk about,

378
00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:15.160
you know, like real life stuff
with your daughter, with your son,

379
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:18.759
you know, like stuff that you
guys are going through. That's how

380
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:23.200
other people will connect with us.
You know. If somebody out there has

381
00:25:23.240 --> 00:25:27.119
a fifteen year old son who keeps
getting caught with weed pipes or whatever,

382
00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:33.680
not pipes or vapes, yeah whatever. At school, there's somebody on our

383
00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:37.640
staff that you can relate to.
Guarant I know it for a fact.

384
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:41.359
There is somebody on our staff that
will relate to you, and you can

385
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:42.279
talk to them, you know,
and they will be like, well,

386
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:48.160
I don't know either, and you
guys can brainstorm. There's people out there

387
00:25:48.160 --> 00:25:52.160
with daughters who talk back. You
know, there's people out there that have

388
00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:57.160
ex wives who when they the kids
go over there, it's like, I

389
00:25:57.160 --> 00:26:02.000
don't want to say Peter Pan,
but it's just like this, the kids

390
00:26:02.119 --> 00:26:03.920
running around, Yeah, free for
all. There we go, Peter paying

391
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:07.359
free for all. And then they
come back to you on the weekend and

392
00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:11.079
you're like, what the hell like
and you got to lay down the log

393
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:14.400
in because they're just all wild ass, And that would be frustrating for me

394
00:26:14.440 --> 00:26:17.599
as a parent. I'd be like, look, I get the kid dialed

395
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:19.559
in, goes to the moms or
the dads or whoever you know, the

396
00:26:21.799 --> 00:26:26.119
other parent, and then they come
back to you and the grades are bad,

397
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:27.839
like everything, the attitude, and
you're just like, well, I

398
00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:30.640
thought we fix this, like this
is what you're gonna do. And you

399
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:33.480
set up and you see the next
week and it's the same thing, and

400
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:36.519
you're like, what is going on? Man? That would be frustrating as

401
00:26:36.519 --> 00:26:38.519
hell. There's people out there that
can relate to that and to know exactly

402
00:26:38.519 --> 00:26:44.119
what I'm talking about. And there's
some man in our staff, multiple people,

403
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:47.839
oh yeah, that could definitely help
you with that. And then there's

404
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:49.480
like people are just cool as hell, you know, and I can relate

405
00:26:49.519 --> 00:27:00.160
to them. Just kidding, just
kidding, just kidding. But that's the

406
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:02.440
of it, you know, And
that's what I really want to put out

407
00:27:02.440 --> 00:27:04.880
there, because we're more than just
helping the people that we come in contact

408
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:10.079
with every single day. There's people
that we will never meet that have listened

409
00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:12.880
to us, have run our stuff, that maybe take something from that.

410
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:17.039
And that's that's the beauty of it, you know, that's the beauty of

411
00:27:17.400 --> 00:27:18.839
media and especially and I'm not going
to say, social media, but some

412
00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:26.279
of it and how people get their
information, like we were talking about earlier.

413
00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:29.000
You know, oh, if you
heard it on TV, it's true.

414
00:27:29.119 --> 00:27:32.200
You know that's dangerous and it's some
of that social media stuffs dangerous too.

415
00:27:32.240 --> 00:27:33.359
But if they can take it from
us, who we have. We

416
00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:37.000
have nothing to gain, you know. We're just getting stuff off our chest

417
00:27:37.000 --> 00:27:41.559
and trying to help people and tell
you what we're going through and did we

418
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:42.960
deal with it right? No,
And here's what we did and here's what

419
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:45.160
we didn't do, and maybe next
time we'll do this. Does that mean

420
00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:48.559
that you need to do that exact
same thing. Absolutely not, because it's

421
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:53.480
different for everybody. But I don't
know if you know. And I got

422
00:27:53.480 --> 00:27:57.680
a son on the way and it
scares me. You guys go through somethings,

423
00:27:59.400 --> 00:28:00.799
It really does. And I was
like, oh, no, you

424
00:28:00.839 --> 00:28:04.559
know, is he going to be
the preacher's daughter? I know that was

425
00:28:04.559 --> 00:28:07.720
probably weird for some people and they're
like, what are you talking about?

426
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:11.039
And some people might know what I'm
talking about. Take take some solace though,

427
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:18.240
or comfort in the fact that you
are going to have a two parent

428
00:28:19.279 --> 00:28:27.079
family structure. Yeah, knock on
wood, hopefully, Thank you. Yeah,

429
00:28:27.160 --> 00:28:30.279
and that, I mean, that's
the plan of it all that everybody

430
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:33.880
has plans. You know, this
will work out forever, and I'm sure

431
00:28:33.880 --> 00:28:36.440
it will. I mean, Marty
and we got married later in life.

432
00:28:36.480 --> 00:28:38.559
We knew what we wanted, we
knew what we didn't want, but still,

433
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:45.160
you know, adding another person into
the mix changes everything. And hopefully

434
00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:49.960
I'll be good enough to handle that
and be a good father and a good

435
00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:53.240
husband at the same time. I
can't wait till you're at home alone,

436
00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:57.599
all by yourself and he just blows
his diaper out. Man, that's not

437
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:02.039
commercial. For the other day,
it was like Pampers three sixty or something

438
00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:04.799
that prevents blowouts hoop everywhere. I'm
gonna get them three sixties, yeah,

439
00:29:04.839 --> 00:29:10.000
because if you see on TV,
it's true, just like that new four

440
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:12.160
Titanium's never gonna rush. Yeah.
I was well to say, I hate

441
00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:18.039
to burst your bubble, but them
diapers, they blow out, they blow

442
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:23.599
blowout. The three sixty came out
before my son was born, and hopefully

443
00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:29.839
they've improved. Maybe it's the three
sixty ones. Then it goes around and

444
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:33.880
just a little bit more go by
the xbox, you know, the three

445
00:29:34.039 --> 00:29:40.519
the pampers X. Now you wondn't
even know he did it, because he'll

446
00:29:40.559 --> 00:29:44.079
be like in his little bouncy chair
or something. You go pick him up,

447
00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:47.519
and you'll be like, oh my
god, what happened. That'll be

448
00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:51.599
laying there in his little crib just
looking at you all adorable smiling because you

449
00:29:51.359 --> 00:29:53.119
know, yeah, and you just
pick him up and it's from the back

450
00:29:53.160 --> 00:29:56.880
of his head down to his toes
and you don't even know until you pick

451
00:29:56.960 --> 00:30:00.839
him up. And now it's on
your hands. Everything's gonna be thrown away.

452
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:04.880
I can see lots of bedding.
And then there's the kids who get

453
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:08.319
a little bit older and then they
start fingerpainting on the wall with it and

454
00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:17.880
all over your walls, your walls
brown. We were actually looking at the

455
00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:22.559
room last night and we had Jill, who was our lately here at the

456
00:30:22.799 --> 00:30:26.319
two seventeen Recovery Center. She and
her husband and they have like this building

457
00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:29.839
thing where they build homes and do
all kinds of stuff, and we had

458
00:30:29.839 --> 00:30:32.279
her over because we're like, we
want to do this, this, this,

459
00:30:32.279 --> 00:30:33.960
this, this, this, because
you know, there's some things that

460
00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:36.799
we want to kind of do touch
up because the house we bother people half

461
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:38.960
assed everything in that when they were
fixing it or painting it. I mean,

462
00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:45.400
some of it's beyond half assing,
just ignorance. So it's kind of

463
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:48.279
like cool to have people in there
looking at it too, shaking their head,

464
00:30:48.359 --> 00:30:49.680
going, we don't know what they
were thinking with that, you know,

465
00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:56.480
but we were picking out like a
light gray slash white paint for Parker's

466
00:30:56.559 --> 00:31:00.720
room, and I was thinking,
like, don't they make stuff that's like

467
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:07.119
marker free or crayon free or or
something, or do we just we just

468
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:11.920
say whatever, they don't do that, the markers and the crans on the

469
00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:14.759
wall, they don't do that in
their room. That's gonna be in your

470
00:31:14.839 --> 00:31:18.119
kitchen. That's gonna be in your
hallway, your living room, where the

471
00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:22.119
first place that somebody who walks in
your house looks at. That's where there

472
00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:26.240
they're canvas they're gonna want to put
their artwork. Might as well just chalk

473
00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:32.799
chalkboard paint it. It's abstract,
right, you know. There's like those

474
00:31:32.880 --> 00:31:36.079
rooms that have like trim halfway up
the wall. Just do that, but

475
00:31:36.200 --> 00:31:38.680
just with that chalkboard paint. So
just all the way around. People are

476
00:31:38.720 --> 00:31:41.799
like, oh, I like the
two tone. You're like Yeah, that's

477
00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:48.759
so when all the place was it
off be interesting, and I figured now

478
00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:52.680
it would probably a good time to
announce our new little project that I signed

479
00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:57.160
you guys up for. I'm excited. I am too wed that as a

480
00:31:57.200 --> 00:32:02.200
surprise until it launches, Okay,
like up and coming, Yeah, up

481
00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:08.400
and have something coming. That's it's
gonna be a lot more structured than this

482
00:32:08.440 --> 00:32:14.319
podcast, but it will be something
of that sort, but it will be

483
00:32:14.400 --> 00:32:20.720
structured a lot more and it'll it
actually has a purpose, like this podcast

484
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:22.720
was to keep me sober, to
have fun, talk about my recovery and

485
00:32:22.720 --> 00:32:28.079
talk about my life and recovery.
But there's yeah, let's leave it there.

486
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:32.119
Something coming, something common. I
should be excited for. You already

487
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:39.960
told them it's basically a podcast.
Burrow and Broette. How we don't call

488
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:47.960
women brouettes were calling bro I know
what I'm saying, We just call them

489
00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:52.880
bro. Which, by the way, women women love to be called the

490
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:57.920
bro right before they break up with
you, because that's what happens. They

491
00:32:57.960 --> 00:33:01.240
don't call women bro or man.
You know what I'm saying. Almost broken

492
00:33:01.319 --> 00:33:05.599
up with somebody for calling me bro, Like I'm not your bro when we're

493
00:33:05.640 --> 00:33:10.079
dating I'm not some dude like you
call me, he said when he say,

494
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:16.680
then I got my ass. I
was born with mine, but I

495
00:33:16.680 --> 00:33:28.319
can identify it now, that's what
he said. Oh, come right in.

496
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:30.839
I'm very sneaky about it. You'll
be talking to someone and I'll just

497
00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:34.920
come in and sit at my desk
and just bust one out real quick.

498
00:33:35.160 --> 00:33:44.319
You can't say that. Nope,
a little too fun with lean back in

499
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:45.920
my office here here, just like
hitting with my pinky, just like,

500
00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:52.960
yeah, that didn't work out very
well. That's good we got in the

501
00:33:53.000 --> 00:33:58.480
office. I can do that.
My son was god like. They're like,

502
00:33:59.279 --> 00:34:04.359
he she shouldn't have happened like it. I don't know how you know

503
00:34:04.359 --> 00:34:08.880
what I mean, like, but
I think that typically happens with the intercourse

504
00:34:08.960 --> 00:34:12.320
or Adam. Yeah, I think
that's what you told them when he said

505
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:15.039
that, the whole the whole clip
you do. I'm like, I'm pretty

506
00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:21.199
sure that intercourse. I remember,
I remember the activities that led to my

507
00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:24.159
son pretty well. I want to
talk about it. No, I really

508
00:34:24.199 --> 00:34:29.239
don't. You want to save that
for maybe another podcast, an up and

509
00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:37.119
coming project. No way, but
we'll go ahead and keep that a secret

510
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:39.760
for now. We should we should
we shouldn't talk about it and brought it

511
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:44.480
halfway out of the bag already.
I just don't know the name of it,

512
00:34:44.559 --> 00:34:50.800
but we pretty much can tell you
what it's gonna be about. Let's

513
00:34:50.800 --> 00:34:54.360
just leave it that a little bit
of mystery, Yeah, and then also

514
00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:58.840
cool thing with it if it is
like something like this that we're doing right

515
00:34:58.880 --> 00:35:04.320
now, but it'll be film.
I gotta work on my camera body.

516
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:13.199
I'm gonna be at Cabilla's every Saturday. We're gonna be a Duke's motorol shop

517
00:35:14.760 --> 00:35:20.000
being the gage. Hey that just
keeps the motor oil under his desk.

518
00:35:20.440 --> 00:35:23.119
I see that. Yeah, that's
out of the way. There's not room

519
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:30.239
in their closet for it. There
could be some shields, some cleaning,

520
00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:42.559
some organization women here. Just kidding, just kidding on cricket, cricket.

521
00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:45.960
I almost got beat up by this
kid for snoring, but I was like

522
00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:50.280
four times the size, So I
mean, yeah, so I don't say

523
00:35:50.280 --> 00:35:53.800
stuff like that. I'll get beat
up by people. But this is a

524
00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:57.199

to have. And you guys are gonna

525
00:35:57.199 --> 00:36:01.039
