Speaker 3: Over six hour ride. I got the person where they
Speaker 3: were going and got back to home base before noon. Dang. Yeah, that's.
Speaker 1: That's pretty good, bro. Yeah. The speed limit of course,
Speaker 1: just a lot of the traffic down the way.
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely. That's why I don't take pictures of the
Speaker 3: demometer while I'm driving.
Speaker 1: I think I do that once he took a picture
Speaker 1: of the spinometer and he was speeding about fifteen miles
Speaker 1: an hour.
Speaker 3: That's a that's a big ticket.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But he was trying to take a picture of
Speaker 1: the one hundred thousand mile mark on the vehicle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the one that person was speeding by fifteen
Speaker 3: miles per hour, and he was trying to let you
Speaker 3: know that the depreciation of your vehicle.
Speaker 1: Just halfed yep. And that he drives and takes pictures
Speaker 1: and sends them to you while he's driving. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: doesn't work here anymore. Unfortunately, that's a good.
Speaker 2: Thing because we pride ourselves in safety.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, obviously no, but that's that's good news.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: Good job. I'm glad you accomplished that today, and it
Speaker 1: feels good to get up and get it done. Early
Speaker 1: had a guy called earlier and he was like, Hey,

Speaker 1: to take me back? Yep. I was like, well, if
Speaker 1: you're requesting people, it's extra that's what I should have
Speaker 1: told him. I didn't, but I just thought it passed
Speaker 1: that long to you as well, because it feels good, man,
Speaker 1: when you when you take somebody in there at their lowest,
Speaker 1: you know. And he said, he's like, I had a
Speaker 1: really good conversation with Mitch on the way to treatment
Speaker 1: until I fell asleep, and he said it was going well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he apologized because I talked to him today. Yeah, nice,

Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: You're like you dirty criminal, druggie and you're going to treatment.
Speaker 2: I told me it wasn't treatment, but I left out
Speaker 2: that negative stuff, tragatory words, because.
Speaker 1: A lot of people when they go to jail for
Speaker 1: you know, their medical problem, addiction, they're treated like criminals.
Speaker 2: It's the weirdest, Like they went out and murdered somebody. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's just crazy to me, Like, didn't murder nobody?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Well sometimes they do, but not all the time.
Speaker 3: Right, you didn't murder nobody? That mentioned murdered somebody? What
Speaker 3: about what about p Diddy? Oh?
Speaker 2: In his little freak off parties, he's definitely a criminal.
Speaker 2: Yeah he should be on the billboard for pedophilia.
Speaker 1: But what if it was just his addiction to sex?
Speaker 2: Poor Justin Bieber?
Speaker 3: Why he's got justin empathy obviously?
Speaker 1: Yep, what happened with Justin Bieber?
Speaker 2: He went to Diddy's house and did he fourteen? Fifteen
Speaker 2: years old and got Diddy Bro, who said that he
Speaker 2: didn't want nothing to do with Diddy. After he went
Speaker 2: came back from his house and did he seeing him somewhere?
Speaker 2: I was like, why are you not calling me? Bro?
Speaker 2: And Bieber looked awful scared. They don't do this in Canada, right, weird?
Speaker 2: It was weird?
Speaker 1: Are you sure that all happened like that?
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure? Bro?
Speaker 1: Did he write a song about it?
Speaker 2: I think he's wrote a few about it? Actually, did
Speaker 2: he did?
Speaker 1: He?
Speaker 2: Did?
Speaker 3: He? No, that's funny one I heard that one?
Speaker 1: Oh you heard it? Yeah, that's good. So I went
Speaker 1: to the oral surgeon yesterday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, how'd that go?
Speaker 1: It? Was this a consult?
Speaker 2: What consult?
Speaker 1: A consult? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I thought I heard that too.
Speaker 3: That's not that's not an oral surgeon that did.
Speaker 1: It was a consult. No, I just had to do
Speaker 1: a consultation with them. And then he was just like,
Speaker 1: we're going to do this, We're going to do that.
Speaker 1: And one lady was trying to tell me that, which,
Speaker 1: you know, put somebody else's jaw bone in my jaw
Speaker 1: over the bone graphing or something. Yeah, probably, I said,
Speaker 1: why don't you just use some of that metal something
Speaker 1: else doing? I thought thought they were a titanium bro.
Speaker 3: There, James Bond villain that's got my little mouth or whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, make it, just do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I've never had bone grafting done after I've had it.
Speaker 1: To no, neither of I. I'm getting it done because
Speaker 1: they're gonna put a little pole in there, which is weird.
Speaker 1: And I should have asked this very important question. So
Speaker 1: when you because I have to have a tooth extracted,
Speaker 1: it's when I get that extracted and then they have
Speaker 1: to do the bone grafting or something, and then I
Speaker 1: have to wait three months and then I go back
Speaker 1: and then they're gonna put this little thing in my jaw.
Speaker 2: I don't know how that works, man.
Speaker 1: And then is it just gonna be am, I gonna
Speaker 1: look at me, you go hey, and then like showing
Speaker 1: my tooth, is it just gonna have like a little
Speaker 1: little things sticking up or like what do they put
Speaker 1: a little fake something on there for the meantime or
Speaker 1: I don't know. Justin answer my question, well, I don't
Speaker 1: know these things.
Speaker 2: You haven't YouTube this or googled it or web md
Speaker 2: it by now normally you're always all about web md
Speaker 2: diagnosing yourself.
Speaker 1: So many questions for the guy that I forgot to
Speaker 1: ask him.
Speaker 3: It's a little it's a little caution tape in that area.
Speaker 2: It looks like a traffic cone. Yeah, construction under construction.
Speaker 1: Okay, So you know how you put together a desk, right,
Speaker 1: And sometimes there's like wooden dolls and sometimes there's the
Speaker 1: other ones that you like they tell you to screw
Speaker 1: in but only till it's flush or whatever. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: what I imagine is gonna be sticking out of like where
Speaker 1: I should have a tooth.
Speaker 3: Mm.
Speaker 1: I doubt it's wooden, right, it'll be titanium, I believe,
Speaker 1: But like, so I can I use that to eat
Speaker 1: eat the apple? Just just scraped through the apple, just
Speaker 1: leave like kind of like a not a hole in it,
Speaker 1: but more of a scrape mark in the apple. It's
Speaker 1: my bottom right lower canine one because twenty eight is
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. Let the by no.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you see, I don't have I don't have bone
Speaker 2: graft any money to actually get something bone grafted afterwards.
Speaker 1: That's nothing attitude to have. Justin Nope, set your goals higher.
Speaker 3: I appreciate the talk because I'm going to the same
Speaker 3: surgeon next week. Obviously. So they're yanking.
Speaker 1: Like six you have like a tooth grown in your
Speaker 1: throat right or something the palette okay, because they have
Speaker 1: the regular dentists like not touching none of that.
Speaker 3: I know. I was like, yank, No, we ain't gonna
Speaker 3: do that, your dentist.
Speaker 1: Why now, oral surgeon, you guys are in coops And
Speaker 1: we had to wait what two years to get in
Speaker 1: to see these people. It was forever and we called
Speaker 1: and we're like, hey, if you have a cancelation list
Speaker 1: to get us on that. Oh cancelations happen all the time.
Speaker 1: Perfect call us Nope, never one time. They're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: those afternoon appointments are harder to fill. And so I'm like,
Speaker 1: all right, cool, and they said, well once you're in,
Speaker 1: now that you've done the consult then we can really
Speaker 1: get your working quicker. And I'm like cool. And then
Speaker 1: the ladies like telling them like, okay, so we have
Speaker 1: the seventh. I'm like, oh, hell yeah, Monday, let's go.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, November seventh. I'm like, what you just
Speaker 1: told me. We can get this baby, zip zip zip zip,
Speaker 1: and let's go. And then she's gonna do the whole
Speaker 1: but we have cancelations. I said, don't even start that
Speaker 1: with me. I was like, do I got to drop
Speaker 1: some money on the ground to get a call on those? Well?
Speaker 1: Sometimes we pick from the beginning and then we'll go
Speaker 1: to the end and we'll pay. I'm like, how about
Speaker 1: you just pick my name next time someone cancels. And
Speaker 1: that's why I asked about the money. I'm like, do
Speaker 1: I did you just need a twenty?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: How much?
Speaker 3: Was that? A fun Friday game that they played, they
Speaker 3: pick a name off the front, pick a name off
Speaker 3: the back, or what.
Speaker 1: It could have been because it was on a thursdayday.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows dentists don't work and know they neither do
Speaker 1: all surgeons on Fridays.
Speaker 2: Really, yeah, I just thought that was our dentist.
Speaker 1: No, it's a dentist in the on the whole earth.
Speaker 1: Like maybe maybe not in like England. Maybe, well, I
Speaker 1: don't know that they have dentists in England, but I
Speaker 1: don't think they do. Yeah here in America, No, they
Speaker 1: didn't work on Fridays. Man, That's why I like our dentists.
Speaker 1: Was switching over because he's like, well, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to take your insurance anymore and blah blah blah. And
Speaker 1: I'm like, why don't you just work Friday if you're
Speaker 1: worried about all this extra money you're losing. Like he's
Speaker 1: just working extra day, buddy, Like maybe he's putting in
Speaker 1: his four tens, but no, I like, I like our dentists,
Speaker 1: zut and dam.
Speaker 2: Yeah he's really cool, dude.
Speaker 1: He's a zoot and dam about my teeth to tell
Speaker 1: you that.
Speaker 3: M Well, I wish he'd take our insurance.
Speaker 1: But it won't take our zut and dam insurance.
Speaker 2: Right, you might have to go find a new dentist
Speaker 2: that does take our insurance.
Speaker 3: Oh. I was just gonna sign my kid up there too.
Speaker 3: I was like, now, like, you're probably gonna lose me
Speaker 3: as a customer. You're not getting him as one, Like what?
Speaker 1: And the thing about our insurance is, whoever said it
Speaker 1: up was just amazing. It's amazing human genius. Because the
Speaker 1: places I've worked before, we get like a twelve hundred
Speaker 1: dollars maximum. That's what you get a year. You can't
Speaker 1: do shit with that. But the plan we have is
Speaker 1: like unlimited.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it even says on the piece of paper like
Speaker 1: nine nine nine common nine nine nine common nine nine
Speaker 1: nine common nine nine nine common nine and it says unlimited.
Speaker 1: So you would think it. Dennis will see that and
Speaker 1: be like, oh boy, especially these early recovery dudes coming in,
Speaker 1: you know, they need some work. Like you just be
Speaker 1: like evil like doctor, like I rub in his hands
Speaker 1: together like.
Speaker 3: Ten three times a day so I can brush your
Speaker 3: teeth for you.
Speaker 1: Yes, come, we're gonna how many more do you need?
Speaker 1: Let's go, you know, but it's not like that.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, you should have just kept our portion of the insurance.
Speaker 2: And was like, well, I'll take you guys.
Speaker 1: Well, and that's the thing because it's not just our insurance,
Speaker 1: like there are people who have because we have Humana. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's like the insurance people name whatever they print the cards,
Speaker 1: I think. And then d Quest or something which doesn't
Speaker 1: even sound like it was something I want to be
Speaker 1: a part of. It sounds like a movie, like a
Speaker 1: real bad one. Yeah, we can go see Dental Quiest
Speaker 1: this weekend.
Speaker 3: Like Marunner maybe Star Quest, Yeah, Galaxy Quest, Galaxy Quest.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we go. Never seen that not bad movie.
Speaker 3: Actually, I had some friends that loved it and I
Speaker 3: watched it one time. I was like, really, maybe like
Speaker 3: seven of them.
Speaker 1: We're from Michigan, so we have like anything Tim Allen does.
Speaker 3: Yeah, really until his boat starts leaking.
Speaker 1: Yeah, boat starts leaking, justin so they are a bunch
Speaker 1: of like so somebody with Priority Health or whatever United
Speaker 1: whatever it's called, Like, they could also have Dental Quest
Speaker 1: or Dental Max. Maybe it's Dental Max whatever. It's one
Speaker 1: of those things that I don't think it should be
Speaker 1: a name of a place. So it's all of those people.
Speaker 1: So it's not just like, hey, we're not taking Humana anymore.
Speaker 1: I mean, like I said, they just print the cards.
Speaker 1: They have nothing to do with it. Really, this is
Speaker 1: what my brain thinks anyway. So they don't want to
Speaker 1: take that because the doctor charges one twenty for this procedure.
Speaker 1: They're going to pay the doctor forty dollars and I
Speaker 1: get that, and then they'll but if they're out of
Speaker 1: network dentists, they'll pay them one hundred and twenty dollars.
Speaker 1: Got you, Yeah, it doesn't make any sense, and.
Speaker 2: So they'll pay for it, and then they charge you
Speaker 2: with kopem.
Speaker 1: So maybe they won't charge maybe they won't pay them
Speaker 1: one twenty, they'll pay them ninety, and then we got
Speaker 1: to pay the extra, right, I follow you. So they're
Speaker 1: still getting more monies.
Speaker 3: I just want it to be easy, man. No, this
Speaker 3: is why I didn't go to no dentists.
Speaker 1: Next time we sign up for an kind of health insurance,
Speaker 1: I'm putting one of your guys's emails and one of
Speaker 1: your numbers, because in June we were gonna switch over
Speaker 1: to something else because I was like, I'm finding something
Speaker 1: else because they were going to raise our rates and
Speaker 1: then charge everybody like when you see a therapist. Now,
Speaker 1: it used to be free. Now it's fifteen bucks unless
Speaker 1: you do zoom and it's only five right damn Yeah,
Speaker 1: still used to be free, and so I'm like, that's
Speaker 1: just stupid. I went and looked. I couldn't find any
Speaker 1: plan that had the free so and we pay a
Speaker 1: lot for it. So I was just like, what the hell, man?
Speaker 1: But yeah, when I signed up, and then that's just
Speaker 1: the worst, one of the worst mistakes I've ever made
Speaker 1: in my life. Because I'm still getting two three test mexage.
Speaker 1: I can't even talk. I'm so irritated by text messages
Speaker 1: a day.
Speaker 2: Can we just use the office phone?
Speaker 1: They'll be ringing a lot of rings. Corey there, yep,
Speaker 1: I'm just some lady, mister smoker, come over here and
Speaker 1: I'll put her down. I'm like, how about you are
Speaker 1: in charge of our health insurance now, then you just
Speaker 1: hurt email? Yeah I should delegate that anyway. Yeah, good idea, guys.
Speaker 2: Email and phone number, Nope.
Speaker 1: Nope, there's things in life that I like, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to jeopardize those. I'd really just get the calls
Speaker 1: myself test and let's say you call me. They're just like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: we've been texting about I'm like, no, we have been texting.
Speaker 1: I've been reporting junk because I heard that if they
Speaker 1: text you like a blind text like hey, that if
Speaker 1: you reply to it, then they know there's a human
Speaker 1: replying to it, so they can like just sell your
Speaker 1: stuff to other people, or it goes into some category
Speaker 1: of like yep, they reply, that's a real number. That's good.
Speaker 1: Or if you just keep reporting this junk, well you
Speaker 1: still get them, but they don't know. I'm on the
Speaker 1: other end of that text.
Speaker 2: I don't know when I get those messages. I just
Speaker 2: reply stop and they typically stop. But then you get
Speaker 2: them from six more.
Speaker 1: So you stop. That numbers legit, that numbers fire and
Speaker 1: we confirmed it could grow. That's just we'll get some
Speaker 1: good credit.
Speaker 3: That happens to me.
Speaker 1: So you just need to get on the insurance train.
Speaker 2: I have the shop for car insurance.
Speaker 1: That's not as bad. That's so pretty bad. It's not
Speaker 1: as bad as health insurance.
Speaker 3: I got my first report on my drive safe. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I did better than I thought I would.
Speaker 2: You put your little thing up in your windshield.
Speaker 3: I didn't tell me it had to be in the windshield.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's supposed to be up in your windshields stuck
Speaker 2: to your windshield.
Speaker 3: Well, you don't work for Drive Safe. So I did
Speaker 3: the directions and it's in there, so but yeah, I
Speaker 3: got it. It was a report that they tend you
Speaker 3: you can look at. You can go to the app too,
Speaker 3: and I was like, oh, because I was worried about
Speaker 3: some of them. They they judge your breaking, in your acceleration,
Speaker 3: in your cornering, in your phone distraction, and I think
Speaker 3: I think that's it. I don't know more.
Speaker 2: It's like four categories.
Speaker 3: Right. I was up there on the high side and
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, okay, I was kind of worried.
Speaker 3: Maybe it affects your discount.
Speaker 1: Are you supposed to be on the high side?
Speaker 3: Yeah, ok, yeah, because it'll tell you needs work or
Speaker 3: good in the higher the Yeah.
Speaker 1: It's like snapshot from progressive right yeah. Yeah. They told
Speaker 1: me I was stopping too quick, and I'm like, you
Speaker 1: want me to run people over? Like you want me
Speaker 1: to hit cars? Because that is one where I'm like
Speaker 1: that one's not fair. It's not we got stop signs
Speaker 1: right there.
Speaker 3: Squirrels, deer children, tourists. This morning was raccoons.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, you can't hit a coon. Man, oh, justin
Speaker 1: showing it to me, he got a seventy four in
Speaker 1: breaking one hundred in acceleration speed seventy that's a little
Speaker 1: a little high. Cornering eighty nine, phone distraction ninety five.
Speaker 1: See that doesn't that doesn't keep tracking when he's driving
Speaker 1: for work.
Speaker 3: I don't know that we're gonna say not at all.
Speaker 1: And that those are horrible numbers for how far he
Speaker 1: has to drive to work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's those morning ables. Bro oh shoot right.
Speaker 1: Bay, oh, missus went down.
Speaker 3: I have an eighty one in breaking, a seventy two
Speaker 3: in acceleration because.
Speaker 1: You don't take off fast enough.
Speaker 2: No, he's just taking off too fast.
Speaker 1: Oh, I think that's that's inaccurate.
Speaker 2: Speeds A ninety seven, which you speed all the time.
Speaker 2: Now is where'd you stick yours at in your car?
Speaker 2: Underneath the dash?
Speaker 3: Didn't specify, so I just put it somewhere. And I'm
Speaker 3: not making at public because they're obviously listening to this podcast.
Speaker 1: So he's going down as he's talking.
Speaker 3: Cornering is in ninety which is interesting because I drive
Speaker 3: like an indie car driver when I'm alone.
Speaker 1: Well, if you're good at cornering, it's not Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: so they see me hug the turns and go in wide.
Speaker 3: Yeah, phone distractions is seventy.
Speaker 2: Four, which means you play on your phone a lot.
Speaker 1: Well, how are you playing music though? Does that count?
Speaker 3: I play music, I play podcasts all that. So I
Speaker 3: think it's every time you grab your phone.
Speaker 2: It's whenever you move your phone in your car. So
Speaker 2: I have that wonderful magnet mounta in my car and
Speaker 2: it stays within arms reach, so I could still play
Speaker 2: on my phone, but my phone's not moving because it
Speaker 2: took to Bluetooth and it measures the distance from wherever
Speaker 2: the device is at to the other device. So when
Speaker 2: it moves out of that range, you're playing with your
Speaker 2: phone while you're driving, and it soocks up to your
Speaker 2: phone's Bluetooth to monitor your speed through GPS, and you're
Speaker 2: breaking how fast you stop?
Speaker 1: It sounds like he works for them, Mitchell, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: was just gonna ask.
Speaker 2: I dug into it really deep. Well, I'm like, how
Speaker 2: does this ship really work?
Speaker 1: Really?
Speaker 2: It's all done between Bluetooth and GPS.
Speaker 3: I have to get all up in it. I don't
Speaker 3: The GPS thing is it's just kind of a scam
Speaker 3: because we go to a lot of rule for places
Speaker 3: without great cell service. And I've seen a little thing
Speaker 3: like bouncing every once in a while, you know, when
Speaker 3: you got your GPS out. So I don't know, but
Speaker 3: I can't do the magnet mount thing for my car
Speaker 3: because it's all integrated in the thing. And so I
Speaker 3: got a.
Speaker 1: Oh you guys don't have a nice screen on your well.
Speaker 3: Mine has the screen. But when you when I want
Speaker 3: a different podcast or something to listen to, it's hit
Speaker 3: the button. Yeah, but it's hard to find him.
Speaker 2: You need to get a little cupholder mounta then one
Speaker 2: that sits in your cup holder. It's got a little
Speaker 2: arm that comes out.
Speaker 1: And you just where you're gonna put your drink.
Speaker 3: Well, that's another problem is I usually do stick my
Speaker 3: phone like you know, because you plug it in. Do
Speaker 3: you do you have to plug yours in to get
Speaker 3: the screen? Yeah, so mind you have to plug it
Speaker 3: in to get the screen on the thing to work.
Speaker 3: So you plug it in and then I set it
Speaker 3: in my cup holder and then it's just like kind
Speaker 3: of like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, a ninety seven Camaro.
Speaker 3: Which will be riding with there man seventeen Malibu.
Speaker 1: Huh. That's weird how they would have, they wouldn't have bluetooth.
Speaker 1: Where you get his bluetooth it, you.
Speaker 3: Can bluetooth it. But if you want the car ride thing,
Speaker 3: car drive ride, whatever it is, you have plugging in, Yeah,
Speaker 3: car play, you have to plug it in. The Lincoln
Speaker 3: don't have that for work. What do you mean I
Speaker 3: can just mind hooks up bute tooth. Yeah, through bluetooth.
Speaker 3: But the map is a pre pro programmed little map.
Speaker 3: It's what preprogrammed map.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what that means. I think they're
Speaker 1: all pre programmed.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, it comes. It comes straight from
Speaker 2: Ford and you can update it. And I've tried updating
Speaker 2: it because like all of our miles of our speed
Speaker 2: limits have changed in the state and it won't update.
Speaker 2: Like you're on US ten where it's seventy five, they'll
Speaker 2: tell you on the dashboard speed little bit seventy. How
Speaker 2: do I want to update because there's not an update
Speaker 2: for it. I've tried. I've parked it right in front
Speaker 2: of the building here, looked it up to the Wi Fi,
Speaker 2: tried update in the map, it says it's up to date.
Speaker 2: M kind of weird.
Speaker 1: It is weird.
Speaker 3: You know, it's way too much about this stuff, Like,
Speaker 3: that's the seventeen too, right, I think, So, yeah, you
Speaker 3: gotta get you twenty three something. Yeah, definitely something to
Speaker 3: do with that year. I got another, got another year
Speaker 3: in my seventeen and then I'm gonna be trading up.
Speaker 1: That's good, that's good to have them goals.
Speaker 2: I'm just say, pay mine off and then keep it
Speaker 2: four years, give it to my daughter. I got two
Speaker 2: years left. Really, yep, I'm halfway through. Actually I'm on
Speaker 2: the downside of halfway through now, i already crossed the hill.
Speaker 2: And yeah, yeah, I'll just give it to her. Let
Speaker 2: her do whatever she wants to do with it. I
Speaker 2: was given my first car, so that's I was given
Speaker 2: two cars, my first car one when I graduated high school.
Speaker 1: Wow, that was never given a car never.
Speaker 3: Well, no, my dad paid for half of my first
Speaker 3: car and had to pay him back.
Speaker 1: Dang. Now. We tried talking to your son, and I
Speaker 1: don't know. We talked about a little bit on the
Speaker 1: Recovery Dance podcast but we didn't get too far into it.
Speaker 1: But we were like, don't you have goals? And he
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, man, I'm gonna get all c's. I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: it sounds like you're getting a F in English. So dose,
Speaker 1: now he just held up two fingers and now I
Speaker 1: was getting two f's.
Speaker 3: He got the one up pretty quick because.
Speaker 2: What he just did the homework, turned it in his
Speaker 2: grade and magically went out tabulous. That's pretty much what
Speaker 2: it was.
Speaker 3: He was missing assignments, so he got his assignments in
Speaker 3: and it went up, and he's at like a B
Speaker 3: plus on it that on that one. Now it's pretty
Speaker 3: quick for like a week, you know, but now he's
Speaker 3: an infinite different class. I'm like, dude, come on man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that was my daughter too. She's got like
Speaker 2: two e's right now. I'm like, hey, I might going
Speaker 2: to your school. Emburst the ship out of you.
Speaker 1: How do they let her chair?
Speaker 2: Because it surprisingly she still has a two point oh GPA.
Speaker 2: It goes by your GP.
Speaker 1: It went by the report that the teacher. This was
Speaker 1: back in ninety four. It went by the report that
Speaker 1: the teacher sent out to the coach. If you're not
Speaker 1: passing your shit, you were not playing. Yep, you had
Speaker 1: to do. You have a one point seven to sign
Speaker 1: up for it. But then once it started, you if
Speaker 1: you had an F in a class, you're riding the bench.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my kid doesn't give an F in the class.
Speaker 2: No, we'll see.
Speaker 1: We were talking to him and he's like, yeah, see
Speaker 1: averages da da da, And I was like, why not
Speaker 1: be dind you get a B? And like later he
Speaker 1: was like walking away and I was like, come on, man,
Speaker 1: be average, And it sounded like I was telling him
Speaker 1: to be average. But I was like, never mind, that
Speaker 1: sounded bad. But I was like, look, man, like if
Speaker 1: you went to your dad and said, look I got you,
Speaker 1: I got one better than a C. How about I
Speaker 1: get b's and then we helped me with a car.
Speaker 1: I was like, that's how you negotiate that stuff. Man.
Speaker 1: It all starts with desire. If you have a desire,
Speaker 1: you want to you want your license, that's cool. But
Speaker 1: guess what, You're gonna need a car and Dad's not
Speaker 1: gonna be like, yeah, go to wreck my car. No,
Speaker 1: and the car will just be sitting there and you're
Speaker 1: gonna have a license and you're gonna be sitting there
Speaker 1: going well, I have a license. So you're gonna want
Speaker 1: to take that next step, and how can you do that? Bargain?
Speaker 1: You know, get bees, stay out of trouble. You know,
Speaker 1: maybe your dad will hook you up. Oh that's impossible.
Speaker 1: Be average, it's impossible. And then I had to go
Speaker 1: into my story about how I took a college class
Speaker 1: a year and a half or two years ago, whatever
Speaker 1: it was. Then open the book and got an a dory. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like the stuff that you get graded on. And
Speaker 1: then one I purposely wrote completely nothing about what the
Speaker 1: assignment was and I still got to see on it.
Speaker 3: Well, that's the problem he's having right now, is he's
Speaker 3: not getting his assign his assignments in. I was like,
Speaker 3: you don't even.
Speaker 1: Have to do a good job get them in the
Speaker 1: way school is now, just turn it in and you
Speaker 1: will pass with a C.
Speaker 3: You don't get graded on anything that you don't turn
Speaker 3: in like you would have gotten something. It was like
Speaker 3: when we were talking about fantasy football and I had
Speaker 3: to tight end. They got me zero points and my
Speaker 3: other one on the bench got me one point nine points. Like,
Speaker 3: at least he got me one point nine points. I
Speaker 3: could have put in man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, talking about Fantasy man, your bench scored record numbers? Yeh,
Speaker 2: last start.
Speaker 3: And you want to I've been watching game logs all
Speaker 3: the things, trying to learn this.
Speaker 1: Stuff, it happens, and then you'll you'll start them next
Speaker 1: week and he's gonna get you zero or one. That's
Speaker 1: every time. Now, if you have a good bench like mine,
Speaker 1: the only thing that can take my players out is
Speaker 1: motherfucking mahomes and playing Patty Cake after it throws an
Speaker 1: interception and it breaks his wide receiver's leg. That's the
Speaker 1: only thing that takes out my people. I know I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have points on my bench, maybe not this week
Speaker 1: because Dak is the only one on my bench that's
Speaker 1: eligible to play. Everybody else is hurt.
Speaker 3: But don't you have the running bench where most of
Speaker 3: your bench is running backs?
Speaker 1: I did, and then I traded man. I made this
Speaker 1: house so stupid. I should have made malready burn some
Speaker 1: fab for him. But I traded her because she was like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna drop Tray Benson, And I was listening to
Speaker 1: this podcast before the season starting, like trade Benson is
Speaker 1: going to take over from Connor. Connor is running back
Speaker 1: for the Arizona Cardinals, always gets hurt. That's given. He
Speaker 1: will miss games this year because that's what he does.
Speaker 1: But he's good when he's in there. And Benson, they
Speaker 1: said once he gets a shot, he's not gonna give
Speaker 1: it back, and like it's gonna be his. And I'm
Speaker 1: looking at the numbers from Benson after she says she's
Speaker 1: gonna drop them. I'm like, well, I want him. Then
Speaker 1: I'll hold him and I'll wait for him. Eckler just
Speaker 1: got a concussion and the laceration on his ear or
Speaker 1: whatever that had to do with anything. But I was like,
Speaker 1: I'll give you Eckler for Benson because I didn't really
Speaker 1: want to waste my fab and I thought everybody thinks
Speaker 1: like me in the league. I probably could have just
Speaker 1: picked him up and been fine. So I traded Eckler,
Speaker 1: who now, I guess because the other guy in Washington's hurt,
Speaker 1: so Eckler's gonna be like the main guy this week.
Speaker 1: Go figure. And then so I get Benson and then
Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a minute, the guy from Carolina. No,
Speaker 1: the other guy who's hurt. Here's a rookie, he's out
Speaker 1: of Texas. He's supposed to be the ship and I
Speaker 1: know he was on the way of wire, so I'm like,
Speaker 1: hold on. So then I did a Google search like
Speaker 1: who's better, and they said that guy is way better.
Speaker 1: So then I just dropped Benson. Then they pick up
Speaker 1: that guy, which I could have. It looked really stupid.
Speaker 2: I was like, because I wondered why it came up
Speaker 2: in that way, Like you traded Marnie and then you
Speaker 2: drop over the guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I dropped the guy, and then I dropped Swift.
Speaker 2: That's a given.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then Marnie picks him up off the waivers
Speaker 1: I think Sunday or something, the last minute shit or something,
Speaker 1: and she's like, what about Swiss. I'm like, that's about Swift.
Speaker 1: That's why he had my team and works I needed
Speaker 1: to tight end or I needed to pick up somebody,
Speaker 1: and so it just it just didn't really work out
Speaker 1: that way.
Speaker 3: And so.
Speaker 1: Just one of those things. So yeah, I have Nick Chubb,
Speaker 1: Rice both hurt, Hockinson hurt, and the guy from Carolina
Speaker 1: who's hurt. So I got one spot for Dak Prescott,
Speaker 1: who's not playing this week against the Steelers, which means
Speaker 1: he'll get forty points. So good for Dak. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: start love at quarterback.
Speaker 2: You're gonna start loving not Dak.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, if I would have started him last week,
Speaker 1: guess what, I would have beat your ass? Just do
Speaker 1: you think so yeah, I would have because he scored
Speaker 1: thirty two points and Dak only scored eighteen. He had
Speaker 1: eighteenth a half. And I went to bed. I'm like,
Speaker 1: all right, this would be good. I wake up. But
Speaker 1: I'm like, eighteen point five. What a couple. And they
Speaker 1: just the Giants just held the ball and just bore
Speaker 1: the shit out of everybody. And then they get the
Speaker 1: ball and then they punt, and then the Giants had
Speaker 1: the ball for another eight minutes. Again, the game was over.
Speaker 2: I enjoyed fantasy last week.
Speaker 1: But you did. But you enjoyed my good ass wide
Speaker 1: receiver again his knee broken.
Speaker 2: I did. I really did home. I was like, whoa,
Speaker 2: I just got lucky.
Speaker 1: Anyway, this isn't this isn't fantasy football talk, even though
Speaker 1: we just did it.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: But the dentist thing though, it was one of those
Speaker 1: things though, back to circle, back to this. It's one
Speaker 1: of those things that is self care. You know, it's
Speaker 1: stuff that you might not think you want, but a
Speaker 1: lot of people do want it.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: I before I got my dental work done before, like
Speaker 1: back in May or whatever, it was like I didn't
Speaker 1: like to smile because I'm like, oh no, this tooth
Speaker 1: kind of looks bad, you know. So I don't really
Speaker 1: like all that much and it really does make a difference,
Speaker 1: and I still need to do other work, but it's
Speaker 1: just like one of those things that you have to
Speaker 1: do and it does make you feel better. And we're
Speaker 1: not getting drunk every weekend. We're not shooting up or
Speaker 1: getting high or anything. So like we have money that
Speaker 1: we can spend on that a little bit. And you
Speaker 1: can work with your dentists. You can come up with
Speaker 1: a plan and they have different payment plans and options
Speaker 1: and stuff too for people. So yeah, it just takes
Speaker 1: getting off the couch and actually doing it. You know.
Speaker 1: I used to be scared, like, oh man, Like I
Speaker 1: remember back when I was in Arkansas and I hadn't
Speaker 1: been the dentist in ten years. I'm like, I need
Speaker 1: to go. My tooth was hurting, and I'm like, well,
Speaker 1: I had insurance, let's go. But I was afraid a
Speaker 1: that the dentist was going to judge me, you know,
Speaker 1: like I was afraid of him just going why haven't
Speaker 1: you been here? And you just have to get over
Speaker 1: those things because you just say, because I've been drinking
Speaker 1: a lot and I still at that time, I still
Speaker 1: was and they put me in this. When I went
Speaker 1: to the oral surgeon yesterday, they put me in this
Speaker 1: thing where I had to grab it and that like
Speaker 1: zooms around your head. And the last time I was
Speaker 1: in one of those, when I was in Arkansas, I
Speaker 1: was withdrawing so bad. I was shaking so bad. The
Speaker 1: whole machine was moving, and she was just kind of
Speaker 1: looking at me like, yeah, this isn't gonna work. We
Speaker 1: had to do old school on you, like they put
Speaker 1: the thing on me and put it in my mouth.
Speaker 1: I was thinking about that.
Speaker 3: Thought we're done talking about Diddy.
Speaker 2: He must have got some of that baby oil.
Speaker 3: I know that I didn't. I've never had used one
Speaker 3: of the spinning around the head things, so I'm looking
Speaker 3: forward to that. I'm also looking forward to because I'm going,
Speaker 3: I don't know if we mentioned it earlier, when I'm
Speaker 3: going to the same oral surgeon that you did, and
Speaker 3: they're pulling some teeth and this one that's been a
Speaker 3: problem since I was a kid, my throat tooth, and
Speaker 3: I've noticed that it changes my voice or that I
Speaker 3: have like a lisp because of it, and other people
Speaker 3: have been like, I don't even notice I was like, well,
Speaker 3: I'm on like podcasts and stuff now, so I have
Speaker 3: to hear my voice more than I ever have in
Speaker 3: my entire life. So I'm actually looking forward to like
Speaker 3: how that's going to change that, you know.
Speaker 1: So like I'm Mitch, damn, you see how your kids
Speaker 1: hide your wives? It comes home.
Speaker 3: We're done with the diny thing.
Speaker 2: I think you meant as hired your kids and so
Speaker 2: that way you could have adult time.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3: Fabulous give my point for that one fabulous time. I'm
Speaker 3: going to change the thing that's the fabulous time.
Speaker 1: I'm like, come on, daddy, need some fabulous time. Then
Speaker 1: you can't go to bed, but you need some fabulous time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting because when I had the Dundal work
Speaker 1: back in May, like it changed the way I say
Speaker 1: s's yeah, and it's it still bothers me, especially if
Speaker 1: I'm laying in bed. I'm like, let's have sex. That's
Speaker 1: not that bad. But still there's things in words that
Speaker 1: just don't come out right. And I'm still trying to
Speaker 1: get used to it. And but it's it's better than
Speaker 1: having teeth that I was afraid to smile with, you know.
Speaker 3: That's the problem that I have now is my s's
Speaker 3: are longer and what the like kind of sort of
Speaker 3: lists that I've got going on. So yeah, I'm excited.
Speaker 3: And everybody's like it's gonna hurt so much. I'm like,
Speaker 3: I'm just so done with it. Just snake them out. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I won't hurt that bad. Everything everything else I've ever
Speaker 3: done to myself and life is hurt. Like, this is
Speaker 3: at least going towards something good.
Speaker 1: It's a good pain.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, tooth pain really, I mean pulling out a
Speaker 2: tooth really doesn't hurt afterwards. I had a tooth pulled
Speaker 2: out and I came back to work that day and
Speaker 2: I try to take a day off to get them cleaned.
Speaker 1: So after that, yeah, putting that day off, why go
Speaker 1: to the dentist get my teeth cleaned?
Speaker 2: Fabulous?
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're gonna numb me all up. Man, They're not dentist,
Speaker 1: isn't there? They need him to do the shots Friday.
Speaker 1: I don't worry Fridays.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little New Jolly got works.
Speaker 1: Amazing really weird. Yeah, yeah, because I did the same thing.
Speaker 1: I was about to get out of the chair and leave.
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, if you're not gonna numb me up.

Speaker 1: all right, I'm glad I did.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
