00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.479
<v Speaker 2>habit for my house, a goat status. Howard starting to

00:00:33.560 --> 00:00:37.960
<v Speaker 2>get craddic shows that up multiplied like a rabbit tuned in,

11
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:39.039
<v Speaker 2>zone out.

12
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Crank it up, beat the habit I won.

13
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 3>I hang out with her friends, rocking it on the radio,

14
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:52.960
<v Speaker 3>my home by skinkin talking on the radio.

15
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.399
<v Speaker 1>It's time to to just falls again.

16
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:07.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh here we go, all radio friends. It is good

17
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:10.840
<v Speaker 3>to be back with you. Last time I saw you, guys,

18
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:13.719
<v Speaker 3>it was at BFD. Damn, Oh my god, that's right.

19
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:14.640
<v Speaker 1>A long time.

20
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:15.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

21
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:20.840
<v Speaker 3>So I immediately after BFD, I took my family on

22
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:26.480
<v Speaker 3>a vacation and I had heard Skin for years talk

23
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:29.239
<v Speaker 3>about turks and kkos. For a while I worked at

24
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:31.920
<v Speaker 3>the embassy there, so turks and kkos. How would you

25
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:35.879
<v Speaker 3>describe where it is. It's you know, on the far

26
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:39.879
<v Speaker 3>eastern edge of I don't know if it's technically the Caribbean.

27
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:42.840
<v Speaker 3>I think it is, but it's kind of the northeastern

28
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:43.840
<v Speaker 3>part of the Caribbean.

29
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:46.280
<v Speaker 1>Say I would describe it as. So I've never done

30
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:49.319
<v Speaker 1>anything like that. You know. Look, I have three kids,

31
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:51.760
<v Speaker 1>and it's hard to travel with all those kids.

32
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:53.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't. I don't think God wants you to

33
00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:56.040
<v Speaker 3>take kids on vacation. I talked to him about this

34
00:01:56.120 --> 00:02:00.239
<v Speaker 3>sort of thing. It's expensive too, but you know, like

35
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:03.200
<v Speaker 3>we'll go to We're not rich, and so we'll go

36
00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:07.120
<v Speaker 3>to like Port Ransas. We'll drive nine hours to the

37
00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:10.280
<v Speaker 3>Texas beach, you know, to a Texas beach, and we'll

38
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:13.879
<v Speaker 3>look in at brown water with all the seaweed on

39
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:14.560
<v Speaker 3>the shore.

40
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:15.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

41
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and you can drive your cars and trucks on

42
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:21.120
<v Speaker 3>the beach. Look, kids, it's the Gulf of America, the

43
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:23.680
<v Speaker 3>sewer of the water world. You're sitting right next to

44
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 3>a pile of stinky seaweed and yeah, it's one hundred

45
00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:29.039
<v Speaker 3>and seventeen degrees and someone's f one fifty is parked

46
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:31.120
<v Speaker 3>within three feet of you. As you look out at

47
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:32.319
<v Speaker 3>the beautiful brown water.

48
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:34.360
<v Speaker 1>That's amazing. Man, I want to go there right now,

49
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:36.680
<v Speaker 1>beautiful brown shark infested waters. Yeah.

50
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:40.439
<v Speaker 3>And you know, so I was like my kids though,

51
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:42.479
<v Speaker 3>as they got older, they don't care. They don't you know,

52
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:44.599
<v Speaker 3>they don't, they don't know. They're just like, this is great.

53
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:46.639
<v Speaker 3>We're at the beach. I can build a sandcastle or whatever,

54
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:48.759
<v Speaker 3>but we're my nicest place. I can look at my

55
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:50.960
<v Speaker 3>phone and yeah, exactly. In my mind, I was like,

56
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:53.759
<v Speaker 3>I wanted them to experience like that beautiful blue water

57
00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:55.240
<v Speaker 3>that you see in movies or whatever.

58
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:55.599
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

59
00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:57.719
<v Speaker 1>And so that's what they have in Turkey. Kicko.

60
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.319
<v Speaker 3>So I was hosting a charity event and they were

61
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:03.400
<v Speaker 3>doing one of those auctions and one of the auctionable

62
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:07.759
<v Speaker 3>items was somebody's airbnb at Turks and Caicos.

63
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Amazing.

64
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:09.960
<v Speaker 3>And so I was like, man, I've been at a

65
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.439
<v Speaker 3>million of these auctions. Sometimes I'm hosting them, and you

66
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:15.479
<v Speaker 3>see these incredible things go up for auxy. This was

67
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:18.840
<v Speaker 3>for a Cornerstone, an awesome charity in the Northern Urbs,

68
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:22.319
<v Speaker 3>and uh, I was like, nobody's bidding on it, right.

69
00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:25.000
<v Speaker 1>So I kind of look out in the audience.

70
00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:26.680
<v Speaker 3>I'm on the stage, you know, and I look at

71
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:28.840
<v Speaker 3>in the audience to my wife, I'm like give her

72
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:31.199
<v Speaker 3>the look like, hey, we should bid on this. It's

73
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:34.039
<v Speaker 3>like pudging that chalkdaw commercial looking at the way trishy

74
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:34.719
<v Speaker 3>guys are doing that.

75
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:35.319
<v Speaker 1>Are we doing this?

76
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:37.719
<v Speaker 3>And you do the fingers down And I kind of

77
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:39.719
<v Speaker 3>step over to the side. I maybe even text her

78
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:41.879
<v Speaker 3>and said let's win this, like let's go get us.

79
00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:43.159
<v Speaker 3>And so we bid on it and we got it.

80
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:45.719
<v Speaker 3>Just because I'd heard Skin talk about Turks and Caicos.

81
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.199
<v Speaker 3>So the day after BFD or whatever, they're in short

82
00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:53.479
<v Speaker 3>order thereafter, I jumped on a plane with my family

83
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:56.759
<v Speaker 3>and we went to Turks and Caicos. Now, when we

84
00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:00.919
<v Speaker 3>got there, uh you know, I mean immediately. My two

85
00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:06.439
<v Speaker 3>youngest kids are seventeen and fourteen, and I thought maybe

86
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:09.039
<v Speaker 3>they would start to mature, like my oldest son who's nineteen,

87
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:11.039
<v Speaker 3>who's just a pleasure to be around because he's like

88
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:14.719
<v Speaker 3>an adult. Yeah, but they're not there yet, right, and

89
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:18.560
<v Speaker 3>so they're sibling rivalry. They're fighting with each other. It

90
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:22.199
<v Speaker 3>just seems like a blood feud. Is your son did

91
00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:24.639
<v Speaker 3>he just finish his junior year and your daughter just

92
00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:25.839
<v Speaker 3>finished her ninth grade year?

93
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:27.839
<v Speaker 1>Eighth grade. Eighth grade, she's going to ninth grade.

94
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.319
<v Speaker 3>So is high school out in Solina is yet twelve,

95
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:34.160
<v Speaker 3>and so they'll be in high school together. They will

96
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 3>be in high school for one year, okay, and he's

97
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:39.519
<v Speaker 3>already resenting that he might have to take her to school.

98
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:39.759
<v Speaker 1>Everyone.

99
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:44.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but anyways, I'm like, there were some also some

100
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.360
<v Speaker 3>interesting things about this. So my wife is super frugal.

101
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:49.439
<v Speaker 3>God bless her for that, because I'm the opposite of that.

102
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.959
<v Speaker 3>But you know, she grew up her family. I've mentioned

103
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:55.879
<v Speaker 3>this before. I have so much love and respect for her.

104
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:58.319
<v Speaker 3>Sweet mom, Rest in peace. She's past, she's no longer

105
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:00.519
<v Speaker 3>with us. But she raised three kids does a single

106
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:04.480
<v Speaker 3>mom in Oklahoma City. And her my wife's dad was

107
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:06.959
<v Speaker 3>a pos. He left their family and go started a

108
00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:09.399
<v Speaker 3>new family on the other side of town. And so

109
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:11.480
<v Speaker 3>her mom just had to figure out a way to

110
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:15.360
<v Speaker 3>get these three kids through life by herself. And you know,

111
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:17.000
<v Speaker 3>she would take them to happy hour and they just

112
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:19.720
<v Speaker 3>go eat Nacho's at a bar. The kids would have

113
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:21.279
<v Speaker 3>a great time. They had no idea, they were poor.

114
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:22.959
<v Speaker 3>And then her mom would say, on the way out,

115
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:24.639
<v Speaker 3>let's see who can steal the most rolls of toilet

116
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:26.399
<v Speaker 3>paper with that kid caught. You know, they would do

117
00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:28.680
<v Speaker 3>like things like that, go to eat dinner. All right,

118
00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:32.000
<v Speaker 3>But my mom had a wonderful childhood she never realized.

119
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:35.800
<v Speaker 3>But because of that, she's very frugal and thank god,

120
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:37.800
<v Speaker 3>or we'd be completely broke because I'm the opposite. Do

121
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.160
<v Speaker 3>you guys ever go steal toilet paper from like the

122
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:41.879
<v Speaker 3>brass tap up there and prosper?

123
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:42.160
<v Speaker 2>So?

124
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.600
<v Speaker 3>I believe it much like your dad's skin. The great

125
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:49.199
<v Speaker 3>Jerry Wade who says, look, you can't save money on vacation.

126
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:52.920
<v Speaker 3>It's not a good investment. I mean, a vacation is

127
00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 3>not a good investment no matter how you slice it.

128
00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:57.639
<v Speaker 3>Like you guys have gone in big vacations. You went

129
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:00.839
<v Speaker 3>to Italy, absolutely right, And it's like you go to Italy,

130
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:04.160
<v Speaker 3>that's incredible, but you can't figure out a way to

131
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:05.000
<v Speaker 3>do it on a cueony.

132
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:07.000
<v Speaker 1>You just got to commit to spending a bunch of money.

133
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Right, Yeah, yeah, because that's I mean, you don't want

134
00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:10.240
<v Speaker 3>to have to stress about money.

135
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:12.639
<v Speaker 1>You're supposed to enjoy where you are, enjoy all these

136
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:14.800
<v Speaker 1>new experiences. Just don't think about the money. Think about

137
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.560
<v Speaker 1>that later, maybe five years later. There's no return on

138
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:18.720
<v Speaker 1>that other than fun.

139
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:21.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and so the second that you're spending money that

140
00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:25.480
<v Speaker 3>is not well spent, then it's like, well, there's no

141
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:28.720
<v Speaker 3>sense in trying to like, you know, nickel and diamond,

142
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:31.199
<v Speaker 3>because then you're actually wasting the money more than you

143
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 3>would if you went all in. So that's logic, that's

144
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:36.439
<v Speaker 3>exactly right. And so my wife and I, you know,

145
00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:39.560
<v Speaker 3>we just look at this from different angle points. And

146
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:42.399
<v Speaker 3>you know, me, I get busy with stuff and I'm

147
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:44.839
<v Speaker 3>not focused on the details of this. She you know,

148
00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:48.000
<v Speaker 3>she handled every aspect of it. She planned everything, okay,

149
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:52.040
<v Speaker 3>and so that there's a way that she tried to

150
00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:56.040
<v Speaker 3>save money on this trip that almost broke my back.

151
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

152
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:03.600
<v Speaker 3>So at one point she says, I make the bold

153
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:06.480
<v Speaker 3>proclamation that I'm like, uh, you know, I'm just bringing

154
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:09.759
<v Speaker 3>ten black T shirts in a bathing suit. Yeah, you know,

155
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:11.839
<v Speaker 3>that's fine. I don't need to even I just don't

156
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:14.079
<v Speaker 3>need to take very much at all. I don't even care.

157
00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:16.160
<v Speaker 3>We're not they're not doing anything fancy. We're not even

158
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:17.759
<v Speaker 3>going to dinner in a nice place or anything. I'm

159
00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:21.079
<v Speaker 3>just T shirts and a bathing suit. And she goes, yeah,

160
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:22.759
<v Speaker 3>that's the plan. Like, we're all just going to go

161
00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:24.600
<v Speaker 3>carry on, and I go, okay, great, we're going to

162
00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:27.720
<v Speaker 3>carry on, so we're not going to check bag. So

163
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:29.759
<v Speaker 3>it's going to be a cheaper way to go, right

164
00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:31.800
<v Speaker 3>And so I'm like, okay, So she's saving money, but

165
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:32.839
<v Speaker 3>I'm on board of this.

166
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:36.600
<v Speaker 1>So she goes, I got you a backpack for the trip?

167
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:38.399
<v Speaker 1>Hell yeah? And I'm like okay.

168
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 3>And I see it and it's literally a suitcase that

169
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:47.240
<v Speaker 3>you can wear on your back like in high school

170
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:49.839
<v Speaker 3>and you'd put your entire locker in a backpack and

171
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:52.519
<v Speaker 3>hurt by the end of the day. It looks like

172
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:55.920
<v Speaker 3>a slightly above average sized suitcase that has backpack straps

173
00:07:55.959 --> 00:08:02.120
<v Speaker 3>on it. And so I'm like, all right, well, yeah,

174
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:04.959
<v Speaker 3>why not? Are you sure this is carry on size?

175
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:07.040
<v Speaker 3>I don't think the airport will let me carry this on?

176
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.120
<v Speaker 3>And she's like, yeah, yeah, you can carry this on.

177
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:15.560
<v Speaker 3>And so coming up next, I'm gonna tell you exactly

178
00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:18.920
<v Speaker 3>what happened as I took the largest backpack in the

179
00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:23.000
<v Speaker 3>history of mankind into airflight. And I'll tell you that

180
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.040
<v Speaker 3>in just about three or four minutes. Don't go anywhere.

181
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:26.360
<v Speaker 3>The second half of the story is next
