[00:00:27] Speaker B: It was a secret.
[00:00:28] Speaker A: Sorry. Let me. Oh, text. See, see, see.
You know, let me do my stuff.
[00:00:36] Speaker B: It just said that Amazon was delivering something to the house. That's all the text message said. Didn't say what it was. Didn't say what it is. Didn't say nothing like that.
[00:00:45] Speaker A: You need to stop lying to these people.
[00:00:46] Speaker B: I'm not lying to nobody.
[00:00:48] Speaker A: Stop lie.
[00:00:48] Speaker B: I'm not lying to nobody.
[00:00:49] Speaker A: You know what?
See, but it don't matter.
[00:00:53] Speaker B: Cuz I said I'mma handle it if it is. We.
[00:00:55] Speaker A: We need to keep track. Cause you ain't gonna be slick. And it just so happens, man, I.
[00:01:00] Speaker B: Tell you, I. I will videotape me sending it back.
[00:01:04] Speaker A: You bet. You gonna have to. That's gonna be the proof. Sorry. By the way, this is Twitty in the city. I'm 20 years. That's. You better stop this man.
[00:01:13] Speaker B: So much. I'm just saying, man, like if it's just. Can't just can't just do nothing. Like you. You ever had that friend that just sitting there, you find something and like you bring it back and you don't really tell nobody, but you found something. Just like I'm trying to get this to the house and then when everybody come around, you got that one friend that. Hey, hey. Shot. Hey, tell them what you found though. It's in the backpack. Yeah. Hey, show them that. Why I gotta show everybody what I'm holding.
[00:01:36] Speaker A: We appreciate you guys. Hit the. Like, hit the subscribe. We're going for 5k, is the goal. 5k. 5k, please.
THC does all the comment online. So if you comment on any episode, any short. That is him handling that, doing the communique. And he loves you guys. Interact.
[00:01:53] Speaker B: Love you guys to death. Keep him coming. Appreciate you coming.
[00:01:58] Speaker A: I can't even remember, but either way it's a couple of episodes back. Two, maybe three.
We talked about THC getting a boat and they got lost and he felt like got reordered. Got his boat.
Conversation we just had before I gave my SHA spiel. He decided off camera. Which is why I had producer Sean roll this tape. Cause he Was trying to be slick, saying I just got a text that said Amazon's delivering something. And the words that came out of his mouth was following that was I have not ordered anything, so I don't know what it could be with a smiley face. That's what you ain't telling the people. That's why I said you're lying because you did not specify you don't have anything coming.
[00:02:43] Speaker B: I'm just giving you blow by blow updates of what's coming to me. I'm not asking for none of this. None of this. And if it comes, I said I was going to hand it if it comes. And I'm saying I'm going to handle it the right way. I'm gonna handle it the right way.
[00:02:55] Speaker A: I'm just making sure you staying true, man.
[00:02:57] Speaker B: I am gonna stay true. And if you want to, we can even bring it in. If it does show up and I gotta send it back. We can, we can. I'll take a video so we can show the folks at home.
[00:03:06] Speaker A: We'll take a video.
[00:03:07] Speaker B: Sent it back.
[00:03:08] Speaker A: We're not hauling that thing up these stairs. That thing is too long and too heavy. But I just gotta keep you straight, man. Cause I. I see when you're talking to me about that thing, I see your brain turning.
[00:03:20] Speaker B: You don't see my brain.
[00:03:21] Speaker A: I see your brain turning. No, I see it in your eyes. I see the joy. I see thc.
[00:03:27] Speaker B: No.
[00:03:27] Speaker A: Out on the lake, quiet, smooth. Just you and Yoki, maybe one of your sons or your daughters and you just in a 2 by 212.
[00:03:38] Speaker B: No, because what it is, it's gonna be what it is. It's gonna be when I get down to Arizona and I grab the real boat from my dad and I bring it back home.
[00:03:47] Speaker A: See, and that's the other reason why you don't need it. You already got another one that you ain't even got yet.
[00:03:52] Speaker B: Yeah, it's true. I gotta go down there and get it. That's 930 miles away. I don't know if anybody out there owns a big truck that can a lift, but I appreciate it.
[00:04:00] Speaker A: You going to find a way. This is also why I don't think you need. Cuz you would technically have three boats. Yes, you would have three boats and you ain't even got the first one in the water.
[00:04:09] Speaker B: Technically, I still have my raft.
[00:04:11] Speaker A: So. Four.
[00:04:12] Speaker B: Okay, so now that. No, it's not. It's not four. It's only three. You still. You trying to count the one that's supposedly supposed to be dropped off my house. And I'm going to keep it. I'm not going to keep it. If it come to the house, I'mma send it back and I'm gonna record me sending it back.
[00:04:26] Speaker A: Good, good. I'm just. I'm just keeping you. Huh? I'm just keeping you straight, man. I'm just keeping you straight. I just. I don't want you.
[00:04:32] Speaker B: I don't want to keep me straight. I wasn't even talking about it. You was the one that brought the whole thing up. Like, I wasn't even. No, no, no. In the very beginning, in the first. The previous episode, when we were talking about it, you had to bring that. I didn't bring that up. I had to say nothing about the boat.
[00:04:44] Speaker A: Right. But who was the one that you started off with?
[00:04:47] Speaker B: You need to send it back. Like, that's how you started it off. It was like, wow, dude. Okay.
[00:04:52] Speaker A: But who started off camera?
[00:04:55] Speaker B: Didn't have.
[00:04:55] Speaker A: You didn't have to tell me what was getting delivered.
[00:04:57] Speaker B: It doesn't matter if I started it off camera now. You. You already pulled the trigger back then, so.
[00:05:02] Speaker A: Man.
[00:05:02] Speaker B: Well, I don't fire until fire to pawn.
Yep.
[00:05:06] Speaker A: Well, that's fine. Luckily, we both got bullets.
[00:05:09] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:05:10] Speaker A: We are set.
[00:05:11] Speaker B: Might have two boats.
[00:05:12] Speaker A: Hello.
[00:05:12] Speaker B: See, I just do that in. Just threw that in to mess with you.
[00:05:17] Speaker A: You slightly.
[00:05:18] Speaker B: I threw it in there because I knew it would mess with you.
[00:05:20] Speaker A: You knew it would mess with me, but you also. You'd be going to sleep thinking about it. What's that song? Should I Stay or Should I Go?
That's what you be dreaming about that thing. I know you do. That's why I keep breaking it up. Because I don't want. I don't want this. I don't want. I don't want you to pull a me. And we get on camera and you got to make an announcement that you sorry, but I couldn't do it, y'. All. I had to keep it. And then we go have a video. That'd be a good episode that you didn't send me yet because you knew I would roast you. And it's going to be. You already got them both side by side combined. So therefore, you'd be like, I'm already committed. I already drilled a hole.
[00:05:59] Speaker B: But I ain't got nothing. Ain't nothing been dropped off in my house. Ain't nothing came in there. Nothing was in there none.
[00:06:04] Speaker A: It's not like I need to be like.
[00:06:05] Speaker B: I mean, if you want me to, I can pull up My house right now on my phone. And I can show you because I got live cameras at my house.
[00:06:12] Speaker A: YouTube. No, we don't Showed up.
[00:06:14] Speaker B: If it showed up now, it'd be there, right?
[00:06:16] Speaker A: Well, how about this? Yeah. Look on camera. See if it got delayed because it was about.
We've been on for six minutes now. How long ago did you get that text? That was a question.
[00:06:26] Speaker B: Let's see. This was sent to me at. Oops, sorry.
[00:06:30] Speaker A: How much time ago?
What does it say? Like, 15, 20.
[00:06:34] Speaker B: No, like an hour.
[00:06:36] Speaker A: What's on the camera?
[00:06:38] Speaker B: What's on the camera?
[00:06:39] Speaker A: Hour ago, it said it was. It was in route. It takes an hour max.
And it clearly.
Don't you dare. Let me see.
[00:06:50] Speaker B: I'm looking at my driveway right now.
[00:06:52] Speaker A: See?
[00:06:53] Speaker B: In fact, let me. I have one of them cameras that can move.
[00:06:55] Speaker A: I know.
[00:06:56] Speaker B: Rotate.
[00:06:56] Speaker A: It's a. It's 12ft.
[00:06:59] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:07:00] Speaker A: Let me see. No, not there.
[00:07:02] Speaker B: See?
It's not there. Driveway clear. Driveway is clear.
[00:07:06] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:07:07] Speaker B: Driveway clear.
[00:07:08] Speaker A: There's only an hour, though.
[00:07:10] Speaker B: Yeah, I know.
[00:07:11] Speaker A: Hour and a half. It's a big. It's a big package.
[00:07:13] Speaker B: It said. Yeah, and it gave like a 12 hour window, so we don't need an.
[00:07:18] Speaker A: Update, dog if you go ghost on me. He. He kept it. If. If I don't get a text, when I ask what's at the house and you just say, I don't know, you kept it.
[00:07:29] Speaker B: What do you mean? I don't know what you mean. I. I would say I don't know. I would say no.
[00:07:33] Speaker A: You would say something.
[00:07:34] Speaker B: I would say yes or no. If I say I don't know, then yeah, I wouldn't trust myself that I gave it back. I don't know is not a good answer when you say something that you should have a yes or no answer.
[00:07:42] Speaker A: Exactly.
[00:07:43] Speaker B: Did you had a boat? I.
[00:07:44] Speaker A: No.
[00:07:45] Speaker B: Is it at the house? No.
[00:07:47] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:07:47] Speaker B: Come to the house.
[00:07:49] Speaker A: Like a little. I feel like a parent that's got to walk this kid to go do the right thing. You ain't got to say sorry to another kid you pushed or something.
[00:07:56] Speaker B: Be like, sean, did you get a boat back?
Yes.
[00:08:02] Speaker A: See, I don't like that. See? Yeah, I don't like that.
Did I give it back? As in, I put it on the other side of the garage.
[00:08:09] Speaker B: Do you still have it?
No.
[00:08:14] Speaker A: You gonna keep it?
[00:08:15] Speaker B: I'm not gonna keep it. I'm gonna send it back.
[00:08:17] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:08:18] Speaker B: I'm gonna do the right thing and I'm gonna take it and I'm. And yes, you there will Be footage of me sending it back.
[00:08:22] Speaker A: It needs to be.
[00:08:22] Speaker B: If it comes to the house.
[00:08:24] Speaker A: You just said you don't. You didn't order anything else on it.
[00:08:27] Speaker B: I didn't. And I'm getting. I'm getting these little messages that something's coming. So if something comes to the house, I will tell them take it back.
[00:08:36] Speaker A: I'm nervous for you, man.
[00:08:37] Speaker B: I'm not.
[00:08:38] Speaker A: I hope you don't fold.
[00:08:39] Speaker B: I'm not.
[00:08:39] Speaker A: I. I trust you to stick to your guns with a lot of Stu. This one good.
I want you to prove me wrong.
[00:08:46] Speaker B: Got three boats, man. Whether this one come or not, I got three.
[00:08:49] Speaker A: Exactly.
[00:08:50] Speaker B: So I don't need it.
[00:08:51] Speaker A: But you're going to say, you know, be nice to have four.
[00:08:53] Speaker B: And Josh has hit me up with a trailer for 75 bucks. And I'm about to call him today. Heck yeah, see him.
[00:08:59] Speaker A: So that's what I'm saying.
[00:09:00] Speaker B: I can get the first one out. Since you made fun of me on the other last time.
[00:09:03] Speaker A: That's what I'm.
[00:09:04] Speaker B: Got a boat in your house. Ain't even seen the water.
[00:09:06] Speaker A: You trying to change. You see? Yeah, see, when you say it out loud, it sounds bad.
All right. I gotta. I almost forgot what the heck our conversation is gonna be about.
[00:09:15] Speaker B: Yeah, me too.
Trying to keep me on the right path.
[00:09:19] Speaker A: I am, man. You.
[00:09:21] Speaker B: I'm not even on the wrong path. I'm not even on the path I didn't even take. I didn't even take a path. And you just like. It's like you hit me before I even start walking. Don't walk this way.
Don't go this way.
[00:09:33] Speaker A: Don't look that way.
[00:09:34] Speaker B: Don't even look that way.
[00:09:35] Speaker A: Nothing keeps your eyes forward. Exactly.
[00:09:37] Speaker B: I ain't even started walking yet.
[00:09:40] Speaker A: I'm just. I'm.
[00:09:40] Speaker B: I'm beating up Sean's microphone. I know. My bad, Sean.
[00:09:43] Speaker A: That's how I. That's how I know you know I'm right. No, you can feel that urge in you to keep it.
[00:09:49] Speaker B: No, I feel my urgent just keeping it. No, I'm not keeping it at all.
[00:09:53] Speaker A: Okay, Question I got for you.
[00:09:56] Speaker B: All right, here we go.
[00:09:58] Speaker A: There are some things. I found this list of obsolete skills.
[00:10:03] Speaker B: Skittles.
[00:10:04] Speaker A: Skills.
[00:10:04] Speaker B: Skills. Obsolete skills that.
[00:10:08] Speaker A: People think you don't need anymore.
Some of these. Some of these could be true, but some of these, I feel like you still need them.
[00:10:15] Speaker B: Writing incursive. Throw it out.
[00:10:16] Speaker A: That is throw it out.
That was not on this list. That's one skill I feel like that throws obsolete. Remember when you just have to write everything.
[00:10:26] Speaker B: They told us that from elementary school all the way into high school that if we couldn't write cursive, we would not make it in the world. Yes, I haven't wrote. In fact, to this day, I write bold.
[00:10:36] Speaker A: For a signature.
[00:10:37] Speaker B: No, no. For a signature. I. That is cursive. That is.
[00:10:41] Speaker A: That is not even really just the right.
[00:10:44] Speaker B: But it's not really cursive because I'm not really doing letters. It's more of an art thing. Like, I feel like I'm drawing more than I'm. I'm doing. I'm doing letters.
[00:10:54] Speaker A: I do my name.
[00:10:55] Speaker B: Mine is the only letters you can really make out is like the S and the P and probably the.
[00:10:59] Speaker A: Yeah, mine is the I and the T. Cuz I go, I go. I do T. And then I squiggle.
[00:11:04] Speaker B: So that's not really. See, that's. That squiggle Ain't. Ain't cursive letters.
[00:11:08] Speaker A: No, it's not. There are cursive letters.
[00:11:10] Speaker B: There are certain ways to do it.
[00:11:12] Speaker A: So that there certain flows. For the most part, everybody squiggles.
[00:11:15] Speaker B: I print capital letters. Anytime I write out a letter. Anytime I write anything down, print capital.
[00:11:20] Speaker A: Oh, same. I used to write, but that's military.
[00:11:23] Speaker B: Never have I, yet to this day, had to write anything incursive.
[00:11:27] Speaker A: I'm so mad too, because in middle school we have to write an actual paper.
[00:11:31] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
[00:11:31] Speaker A: Like two or three pages to be incursive.
Had to put your deer. Whatever, top left corner.
[00:11:38] Speaker B: That should be one.
[00:11:39] Speaker A: It's not on here, but should be one.
[00:11:40] Speaker B: That should be one.
[00:11:43] Speaker A: I'm doing these out of sorts because I'm doing the ones that I feel like.
[00:11:45] Speaker B: Could you reset that question again?
The. From the beginning, like your list, you have.
[00:11:51] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah. It's a list of skills that are becoming obsolete.
[00:11:58] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:11:58] Speaker A: And whether or not we think they should be or that if you should still need them. And one of them was that I don't think you should write incursive. It was on this list, but that was one I had to add to the list.
[00:12:10] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:12:10] Speaker A: So the next one I have is. We just said it. Still writing in cursive. Writing a check.
[00:12:16] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. I'm so glad that's done.
[00:12:19] Speaker A: I still do. I still. No, it's been at least two years. The last time I wrote a check, it was two years ago. I wrote a check.
I kind of like writing checks.
[00:12:28] Speaker B: I don't. Why not?
[00:12:30] Speaker A: Because it's just easy.
[00:12:31] Speaker B: Nah, man, it's all that big. Old line all the way across.
[00:12:34] Speaker A: Like, that's just so nobody can add more. Add more dollar signs.
[00:12:37] Speaker B: Okay, well, why not? But why make that. Why make that part of the check that long? Why not just. Why not just shorten it up so.
[00:12:44] Speaker A: That you don't get that. I give you that credit. I don't know why they made that.
[00:12:47] Speaker B: Every check has this line that goes all the way over zero, over a hundred.
[00:12:53] Speaker A: I think it's because. No, it's because you got to write out the. The dollars first.
[00:12:59] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. But nothing.
[00:13:01] Speaker A: So if it's 100, if it's 150, if it's $158.78, you got to write $156.
[00:13:11] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:13:11] Speaker A: And then the line is for the remainder. So that's. I just answer my question. That's why the line is longest. In case you write a check for $1,287.
[00:13:19] Speaker B: That was never going to happen in my family.
We was never going to use that whole line. You know what I'm saying? Like, even in my own, like, my own, like. Yeah, I don't need. I don't need all this.
I. I don't need all this line here for this amount, right? Oh, no. The minute you say something like that, I'm putting the checkbook away. If it's something I got to use the whole line for. Yeah, closing. I'm closing that checkbook. We done? Oh, no, no, no, no.
I don't need. Yeah, I don't.
What are you talking about? Why are we above. Why are we above 42 right now? What is happening? Why am I writing this check out?
[00:13:58] Speaker A: I'm not writing stuff.
[00:14:00] Speaker B: No, that's. That's too big. Nah.
[00:14:07] Speaker A: That'S why you don't like, check.
[00:14:11] Speaker B: Yeah. Cause then I'm right. I'm writing this whole line on. My line is long when I'm writing checks. That's what I'm saying. That line. I gotta carry. That line is long, bruh. That. It's. It's pretty much I'm bringing the line up a one. That's it. Where it looks like. I'm just bringing a line up to above that line. That's it.
[00:14:28] Speaker A: The truth came.
[00:14:30] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. 100.
[00:14:32] Speaker A: He said I ain't right.
[00:14:33] Speaker B: Checks that long.
[00:14:35] Speaker A: Yo, I almost blew a snot rocket, I'm telling you. Oh, snap.
[00:14:41] Speaker B: That's real.
[00:14:41] Speaker A: Going to other obsolete skills.
[00:14:47] Speaker B: I'm so glad it's obsolete now.
[00:14:50] Speaker A: Okay, I gotta focus, dog. I gotta bring it back in. Okay.
[00:14:57] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:14:57] Speaker A: Get it together, dog.
[00:14:58] Speaker B: Line is too long.
[00:15:00] Speaker A: Get it together.
Okay.
Oh, God.
Rewinding. Cassette or vcr With a pen or pencil.
[00:15:08] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, bro. Oh, man, that's mine.
[00:15:10] Speaker A: I.
[00:15:11] Speaker B: And when you do it with a vcr, you got to remember to put. You have to open the thing up and flip it before you can turn it.
[00:15:17] Speaker A: And you had to go. So if you're facing the backside, lift that up. You had to do the left side to bring it back. Had to go counterclockwise. So this side would go.
[00:15:27] Speaker B: Unless you was doped out, too. Like, you had pencils that were fat. That fatty racers on the end of them, and they fit Perfect in the VCR1. And if you put them on your. On your tape for your tape deck, you could actually get it stuck to where you could just grab the pencil and just rotate it, like, and it would spin all the way.
[00:15:44] Speaker A: A regular pencil. You had to press.
And you had to do this. You had to do this number. Yeah, if you had the. Oh, yeah, you had the pen. That fat pencil.
[00:15:52] Speaker B: Yep. Done.
[00:15:53] Speaker A: You sometimes put it on the floor.
[00:15:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:15:55] Speaker A: And just spin it like that.
[00:15:56] Speaker B: First time my kids found one of my VHS tapes, they asked me what that sticker meant, because he was like, dad, what is it? Be kind and rewind. I was like, yo, that was the reminder.
[00:16:05] Speaker A: You know, many times I used to watch a movie and be so pissed.
[00:16:09] Speaker B: That you had to put it in.
[00:16:10] Speaker A: And you just see credits, and you're.
[00:16:11] Speaker B: Like, now you got to sit there for an hour.
Yeah, we. We actually had separate rewinders to do that.
[00:16:19] Speaker A: No, we didn't have a separate. Ours was. If you couldn't do it, we had a VCR that could rewind.
[00:16:26] Speaker B: Yeah, but my dad was like, don't do it because you're gonna mess up my motor because it's always going backwards.
He's like. And that's. That's a super high, sophisticated forehead vcr. It's like, I don't even know what a head means in a vcr.
[00:16:37] Speaker A: I wasn't allowed to put at the max speed to rewind.
[00:16:40] Speaker B: No.
[00:16:40] Speaker A: Allowed to only do regular rewind. Because that's what my dad and mom would say. You're going to mess up the motor. And I'm like, then why they put it in here? And it's like, it's meant for emergencies only.
[00:16:49] Speaker B: Right.
[00:16:50] Speaker A: Okay. Rewinding. Ooh.
I think maybe yes. I think it's still good to still not to do this. Drive a stick shift.
[00:16:58] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
[00:16:59] Speaker A: 100% obsolete.
[00:17:01] Speaker B: It is. You know, you can tell it's because you can't rent one.
[00:17:04] Speaker A: That is true.
[00:17:06] Speaker B: Every car you're going to rent now is going to be automatic.
[00:17:08] Speaker A: 20, 20. When did we move out here? Day 2019 when I moved out here, the U Haul we had was a stick.
[00:17:15] Speaker B: Really? But did you get it from here or did you get it from over there?
[00:17:17] Speaker A: I got it from the Midwest.
[00:17:19] Speaker B: Yeah. You didn't get it from out here?
[00:17:20] Speaker A: No.
[00:17:20] Speaker B: The closer you get to the west coast, they stop, done. They said that's the number one theft protection in any car.
[00:17:29] Speaker A: Oh, because they can't.
[00:17:30] Speaker B: Cuz you can't have it.
No, you can't. They can't. They'll get in your car and be like, okay, what do I do? You ain't stealing it.
[00:17:36] Speaker A: You better hope.
Yeah, you better hope they don't mess it up, though. That's how I learned.
[00:17:41] Speaker B: I learned a different type of. Of shifting. I learned they used to call it three on a tree. And it was the. The shift was on the steering column, so the shifter was up like that. And you had to shift up, you had to shift down, you had to shift back up. You still had. You still had clutches, you still had clutch work to do. But it was three on a tree. It was my. It was my grandfather's old GMC truck.
[00:18:02] Speaker A: I never would see. I was always center.
[00:18:04] Speaker B: Not. Yeah, that was later.
[00:18:05] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:18:06] Speaker B: Yeah.
That's when I learned I was doing three on a tree. I was still like 10 years old. I wasn't even old enough.
[00:18:13] Speaker A: So was that. So then on the other side was. No, was this side still. It was park.
It was all on this side.
[00:18:20] Speaker B: It was. Yeah, it was the park reverse. And then it was the same thing. You had to use that into two different. It was. You had to use that into two different. One would come back, then you could put it in park and went back in the fourth.
[00:18:30] Speaker A: I don't think I would. I mean, I would have figured it out. I don't think that's why they moved.
[00:18:33] Speaker B: It to the floor.
[00:18:34] Speaker A: Yeah, I wouldn't have liked that.
[00:18:35] Speaker B: You know how many people would. You know how many people put it in park on accident?
[00:18:38] Speaker A: Yeah, I would. Can you like. I can't imagine you're here and then all of a sudden you got to get this arm up here.
[00:18:44] Speaker B: Correct.
[00:18:45] Speaker A: Correct. Yeah. Down here. At least. At least my arm hangs down here. I'm glad whoever made that realized for my generation because I would have hated.
[00:18:53] Speaker B: Oh, there's a lot.
[00:18:53] Speaker A: I would have kept my hand up here, man.
[00:18:55] Speaker B: There's still a lot of stuff from Your generation that still does something just backwards.
[00:18:59] Speaker A: I mean. Yeah, but I'm glad I didn't have.
[00:19:01] Speaker B: To Tell me why my, my 2011 Chevy Malibu. I gotta rip my whole front bumper off just to change the headlights.
[00:19:07] Speaker A: Well, that' got my generation. That's the 2000 dealer. That's the dealer. All right, we did rewinding. We did that making. Nope, not that one. Right.
[00:19:16] Speaker B: Which one?
[00:19:17] Speaker A: Milking a cow.
[00:19:19] Speaker B: Who wants to.
[00:19:20] Speaker A: I feel like unless you're a farmer.
[00:19:22] Speaker B: I mean, if you're a farmer, sure, that makes sense. But nobody else wants to milk a cow.
[00:19:25] Speaker A: No, nobody wants, nobody ever wants to milk a cow.
[00:19:28] Speaker B: I don't think, I don't think. I don't think there's anybody that just wakes up going, hey.
And you know what's funny?
I don't think anybody actually milks cows back like how they used to back in the days. Any.
[00:19:39] Speaker A: That's a good one.
[00:19:40] Speaker B: Which one?
[00:19:42] Speaker A: Making brown paper bag book covers. Yeah.
[00:19:45] Speaker B: I miss that dog. I miss that so much.
[00:19:48] Speaker A: Cuz you used to just mine them, mine was always my initials, my jersey number and then a football in the corner.
[00:19:55] Speaker B: My history and my science books were the ones that were going to be the biggest. Out of these ones, you used to.
[00:20:01] Speaker A: Sometimes just outline the book itself on the COVID and then add. So I had a buddy who was, he's probably a graphic designer right now. His name was Carl. Yeah, he would always. On his book cover he would outline the textbook but then somehow make it.
[00:20:15] Speaker B: Look more Anybody, Anybody that can draw. In my school that I was friends with ended up putting their artwork on my books.
And then when I, when I graduated or when I left, I still have pieces of, of my book covers because of what was drawn on them. Them. Like I never got rid of them to this day.
[00:20:35] Speaker A: Yeah, I still have.
[00:20:36] Speaker B: I still. It was clever to this day.
[00:20:38] Speaker A: Well, because back then a lot of kids freehanded that. Yes, well, they had to straight freehand.
[00:20:44] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean that back in the day, I, I, my friend Paul used to draw the Simpsons all the time. And he went in there and he was drawing them on my. And it looked like.
[00:20:52] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, what I'm saying. So my buddy Carl would do the same thing. Let's say it was a science book and on the science book there was, I don't know, like maybe dinosaur and the earth. He would somehow have it to where it's like maybe Homer has a plate and on the plate is earth.
And then like somebody like he would put a character with that actual thing on the Book where you would think, right, right, right. It was the actual cover. And then when you actually had a regular one, you're like, oh, he just took the earth and then just made it look like Homer's eating it.
[00:21:21] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:21:21] Speaker A: He was that creative. Like taking a chunk out of the earth. He was. He was pretty cool. He didn't say anything.
[00:21:26] Speaker B: I missed doing that out. I miss doing the paper stuff on the books like that. I wish. I wish we had to still do that. Like, even when my kids was going through it, we didn't do that with their books.
[00:21:34] Speaker A: No, I.
We had that. And it transitioned to the clear covers just to protect them. It was just a clear cover where you could see the actual book itself, but you couldn't draw on it. That was boring. Speaking of brown paper bags. Brown paper bag lunches.
[00:21:52] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Miss that. Miss that.
[00:21:54] Speaker A: Sack lunch is what we would call it.
[00:21:56] Speaker B: And it depended on the size of your sack. It's like it depended.
[00:22:01] Speaker A: Careful how you say that.
[00:22:02] Speaker B: Let me say this. Let me say it depended on the size of your lunch bag of how you was going. Like, like, okay. Like, if we had the bigger paper bag, then that means we was going on a field trip.
[00:22:15] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:22:15] Speaker B: And field trip. Field trip lunches.
Way better than everyday life. Oh.
[00:22:20] Speaker A: Always.
[00:22:20] Speaker B: Way better than every day.
[00:22:22] Speaker A: Field trip lunch to me was where you. You could ask for. I think that dessert, that Capri sun, that Kool Aid.
[00:22:29] Speaker B: I think that. I think field trip lunches is where Hostess would shine.
I think that's where they just. They would just shine. Hostess lunches. A host. A hostess cupcakes. Hostess Twinkies.
[00:22:42] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:22:43] Speaker B: Apple pies. Cherry pie. Like the real apple pie.
[00:22:45] Speaker A: Every dessert.
[00:22:48] Speaker B: You could. You could be on the field trip. And this was barding tools. Yeah. You could walk around with.
[00:22:54] Speaker A: With some chocolate, negotiating hard.
[00:22:57] Speaker B: Yeah. You could be like, hey, I give you this if you give me that.
[00:23:00] Speaker A: My lunch used to always. I knew. I knew I was going on a field trip. Sometimes I would forget, but I knew I was going on a field trip. My mom was making my lunch in two things. The bigger bag and my sandwich went in a Ziploc.
[00:23:12] Speaker B: In a Ziploc? Yeah. Not one of them little fold out. No. And just throwing it.
[00:23:15] Speaker A: Yeah. Nope.
[00:23:15] Speaker B: Then when you go to lay, it's already open and you're in the top of sandwiches all dry and hard already.
[00:23:20] Speaker A: If it was in the Ziploc, I was like, oh, I'm going to field trip.
[00:23:23] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:23:23] Speaker A: And then she would look at me and say, go in the pantry. Go get you I like Swiss cake rolls or oatmeal cream pies. And she would say, go get. Go get one of your Swiss cakes or an oatmeal pie.
[00:23:34] Speaker B: See? But a Swiss cake, that's just a ho ho from.
[00:23:36] Speaker A: From Hostess. Yeah, it is.
[00:23:37] Speaker B: Yeah. I. I was a Little Debbie's a Little Debbie guy.
[00:23:41] Speaker A: I was a little Debbie guy.
[00:23:42] Speaker B: I like the Swiss rolls from Little Debbie. Those are good, too.
[00:23:45] Speaker A: I tore those up.
[00:23:46] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
[00:23:46] Speaker A: But yeah. Brown paper bag, which is crazy, too. You just had. You just had two sizes, but you never saw a kid on a regular lunch day with the jumbo size brown paper bag. Everybody had that standard one.
[00:23:57] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:23:57] Speaker A: And I never got either.
How in the world.
If it's the same bag, the small ones would always rip more than the big durable one.
I don't know if you ever noticed that. So for me, when I would take my brown paper bag just for regular lunch, I always found myself, like, I would roll it too hard so then it would tear.
But on a field trip, I could roll that thing up. I could bang it up something.
Same bag, just a bigger. It's just bigger. But I was like, it's the same material. How was the one that I use on an everyday basis getting beat up more than the field trip?
[00:24:31] Speaker B: Because I think they're thicker. I think the bigger bags are thicker. Probably because I'm not used to bag groceries. I used to bag groceries on the commissary on base. That's what I used to do in high school for money.
[00:24:39] Speaker A: I missed the commissary.
[00:24:40] Speaker B: So I used to go. I used to. I used to be on the comments to be on base. I go there. And then you bag for tips. So whatever. Whatever we got.
[00:24:46] Speaker A: We just wasn't always plaque. It wasn't always paper.
[00:24:49] Speaker B: Yeah, it was always. Yeah, there was no plastic.
[00:24:52] Speaker A: That's what I thought. Yeah.
[00:24:52] Speaker B: But you could tell just by. But then they like. We had the. We had the paper bag that you put like a. Like an alcohol bottle in, and then that goes inside there. And that paper. That paper bag for the alcohol bottle, that would be a whole lot thinner than the actual paper bag itself. Got it.
[00:25:08] Speaker A: They should have made them thicker.
[00:25:10] Speaker B: They should have, but it was smaller. And that was kind of like the small lunch bag.
[00:25:13] Speaker A: Yeah.
Ripping. And all your stuff fall out.
[00:25:16] Speaker B: I think it was just made to be able to wrap so that you can put it inside something.
[00:25:19] Speaker A: So that they should have realized.
[00:25:21] Speaker B: I don't think they made it for, like, carrying purposes.
[00:25:23] Speaker A: Well, they should have put that on the label. Because I, I mean every.
[00:25:27] Speaker B: And every movie I've seen with somebody that was drinking something. A little paper bag. If you notice the paper bag always rips on the bottom.
[00:25:32] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:25:33] Speaker B: And it always falls out.
[00:25:34] Speaker A: Oh yeah, for sure.
[00:25:34] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:25:35] Speaker A: All right. Last one on this one that I have on this list, I mean they have a bunch. Some of these, I don't know is like I have like someone joking. I have Jenny's number memorized. Pinning diapers.
[00:25:47] Speaker B: 5, 3, 0, 9.
[00:25:48] Speaker A: Yeah.
Pinning a diaper with a baby.
So using pen. I remember my grandma Katie would do that.
[00:25:55] Speaker B: That was on me. That wasn't on my kids. My kids all had elastic.
[00:25:59] Speaker A: My grandma, I think my grandma Katie did it because she didn't trust the diapers.
[00:26:02] Speaker B: Diaper. My, my mom. No, I remember my mom always wanted to throw it away because if not she had to take that cloth diaper off. Then she had to go and wash it and she had to wash all the diapers again just to put them back on again. I'd rather throw them away and move on.
[00:26:14] Speaker A: Well, that's the thing. So my. As far as I know, my grandma never. I never saw her wash diapers when we were growing up. But she would elastic and pin it. It was almost like she just didn't trust the elastic.
[00:26:26] Speaker B: I saw my mom washing my younger sisters diapers.
[00:26:30] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:26:31] Speaker B: But I never saw her washing mine.
[00:26:34] Speaker A: And you're, what's your.
[00:26:36] Speaker B: You are 75.
[00:26:38] Speaker A: No.
[00:26:38] Speaker B: Yeah. But you're how middle?
[00:26:39] Speaker A: You're middle. So your oldest sister was what, seven years older than you?
[00:26:42] Speaker B: No, two years older than me is my older sister. And then I'm, I'm three years old. So I was 75. My baby sister is 70.
And my surprise.
[00:26:52] Speaker A: Your mom just didn't run through with all of you because you was only. But I guess two years can make a difference.
[00:26:56] Speaker B: Pins. Yep.
[00:26:57] Speaker A: That she did. She. Maybe she, she did it with your sister and said, I'm not doing that.
[00:27:00] Speaker B: Well, she did it with me. And I remember, I, I remember like, I don't know how I remember the pins, but I remember it actually touching my body.
[00:27:09] Speaker A: I was like, you probably got poked.
[00:27:10] Speaker B: But I, I remember that all the time. Like to this day. Sometimes when a safety pin comes near me on that, I'm like, I'll, I'll be. Yeah, I'll kind of flinch.
[00:27:17] Speaker A: I remember though. I remember because I remember hearing the elastic and then I remember my grandma having the button.
[00:27:23] Speaker B: None of my kids. Oh yeah. Either that or a bobby pin.
[00:27:26] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:27:27] Speaker B: But my, my kids. None. No.
[00:27:29] Speaker A: All elastic yeah, my grandma just didn't.
[00:27:32] Speaker B: In fact, we had a thing called a Diaper Genie that you could stick it inside and then it turns. Yeah, it was like a certain trash can for the diaper when it was done.
[00:27:41] Speaker A: So you can put it.
[00:27:42] Speaker B: You can put it in and you could push it down. And then you rotate the top and it closes off the top of the bag so that it doesn't leave a smell and the next one goes behind it. Then you rotate it again. When you pull it out, it just looks like a little beaded necklace to go when you throw that.
[00:27:55] Speaker A: Oh, I've seen those nowadays. Yeah, I don't. Well, I'm assuming it was your kids, because I'm 92. Your young. Your oldest kid was 95. 95. Maybe they didn't have it when. I mean, that three years make a difference.
[00:28:07] Speaker B: So I had it for him. Yeah, 95.
[00:28:10] Speaker A: 92. They might have now or. My mom just said, don't need it. That's what the trash cans for.
[00:28:14] Speaker B: And I think we got it because it was like a baby shower present.
[00:28:17] Speaker A: Oh, you didn't. You.
[00:28:19] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:28:19] Speaker A: Baby shower present. That's way different. Oh, yeah, I know. My mom didn't get that.
[00:28:22] Speaker B: Right, right.
[00:28:23] Speaker A: She just got stuff.
[00:28:24] Speaker B: We got a Diaper Genie. We got like. We got like, you know, the car seats, things like that. Car seat strollers, strollers, crib rocker, a bouncer.
[00:28:33] Speaker A: The classics.
[00:28:34] Speaker B: Or. Or a Walker was number one. All my kids were in Walkers.
[00:28:37] Speaker A: All of them. The Johnson. Johnson and Johnson one or. No, no, no, no. Who made the French Play School. Play School or. Yeah, Isn't it Fisher. Fisher Price, Yes.
[00:28:48] Speaker B: Yeah. And then you just, like, put them in there and they just walk all over the place and they can run in and.
[00:28:52] Speaker A: Yeah, I had that. If it was Johnson, it was either Playhouse or Fisher Price.
[00:28:57] Speaker B: It was that or we had that portable. What is that? The portable playpen. That also, like, doubled up as a place for the baby to take a nap and sleep inside.
[00:29:05] Speaker A: I don't remember having that. Probably did, though.
[00:29:07] Speaker B: We had a place. I don't remember that. We needed it.
[00:29:09] Speaker A: That with Isaiah.
[00:29:12] Speaker B: All of them. All of them.
[00:29:14] Speaker A: All of.
[00:29:15] Speaker B: Every single one of them.
[00:29:16] Speaker A: Playpen was a necessity.
[00:29:17] Speaker B: Oh, yeah.
[00:29:18] Speaker A: Okay. That was my list. Anything good list.
[00:29:21] Speaker B: I like that.
[00:29:21] Speaker A: Anything you can think of that wasn't on there. Aside from the right. No, not writing checks. We said cursive.
[00:29:26] Speaker B: Cursive.
[00:29:28] Speaker A: I'm putting you on the spot.
[00:29:30] Speaker B: Skills that are. That are obsolete now. Yeah, typing. Oh, typing is not. I don't even know if they type anymore.
[00:29:38] Speaker A: That's true.
I feel like counting change.
[00:29:44] Speaker B: I think the different ways of coming up with the same answer but just doing it in different ways. Yeah, I think that's changed.
[00:29:50] Speaker A: Yeah. I feel like people know what two plus two is, but can you tell me, what if I gave you $4? Remember those used to be the math questions? Like THC is at DA da da, and he has this and dollar amounts. And then he pays for this and there's three apples and it costs this much. How much change is THC getting back?
[00:30:09] Speaker B: I, I, I, I will say something else though, too.
There's far too many people being locked out of their own.
And that never happened to us back in the days. Back in the days, we had hideaway keys to make sure we can get into the house.
[00:30:26] Speaker A: Oh, God. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:30:28] Speaker B: We had, Had. My dad always had backup keys to the cars. Yeah, we always had. We had. And now you're seeing less of that to the point where there's actually people who break into your house for you for 150.
They'll break into your house for you. They'll break into your car for you.
[00:30:42] Speaker A: Yeah. Every, every key we need, we needed at my house to this day. It was in the shed.
[00:30:49] Speaker B: I keep a key, I keep a key on my truck right now just for that fact. Yeah, I keep a, I keep a key for my house just for that fact. Yeah, but that's the way I was raised. I was taught you need something to always be there in case you lose something like that. But nowadays you don't see that. You don't see people being taught that no more. Now everybody's walking around with a cell phone and they lost and they locked out of their own.
[00:31:09] Speaker A: Yeah, that's true.
[00:31:10] Speaker B: It's like we were never locked out of our stuff growing at all.
[00:31:13] Speaker A: Everything was in the backyard.
[00:31:15] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:31:16] Speaker A: Because front, front lock and back door was different.
[00:31:20] Speaker B: We even knew, we even knew how to bang on the window just to get it to slide open.
[00:31:25] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Oh, easily. I even figured out how to jury rig the latch ones.
[00:31:30] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:31:32] Speaker A: Surprisingly not. My granddad taught me how. He was like, in case you ever gotta get in the house.
[00:31:35] Speaker B: See, these are skills that are obsolete now.
[00:31:38] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:31:38] Speaker B: Or if they aren't, they're used by people who are charging people to do what we was taught to do.
[00:31:43] Speaker A: That is true. That is one that, Yeah, I remember like it was yesterday. I got locked out of the house one time.
[00:31:48] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:31:48] Speaker A: I left my kids.
[00:31:49] Speaker B: Horrible. You got to sit on the sidewalk like some homeless person. You got to sit there and be like just I don't live here.
[00:31:55] Speaker A: Yeah, I left my keys at. And my locker at high school.
[00:31:59] Speaker B: You know how much you ain't trust. You ain't trusted by people when you sitting in front of your house. The mailman won't even hand you the mail to your own house.
[00:32:07] Speaker A: Oh no.
[00:32:07] Speaker B: And this mailman has watched you walk in and out of your house multiple times.
[00:32:11] Speaker A: Like you sit on the curb, you should have a he. That's cuz he should have a bathroom.
[00:32:15] Speaker B: Exactly, exactly. But that's how bad it feels when you sitting on the curb, wait for somebody to come home, you can get in. Is not even the mailman. The mailman will say hi to you by your name and he still won't hand you the mail.
[00:32:26] Speaker A: I don't think I ever was locked out of my own house. I was.
[00:32:29] Speaker B: Oh, I've been. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. I've never no man's land then.
[00:32:34] Speaker A: Nope.
[00:32:35] Speaker B: We had walk around your neighborhood like you just gonna have no friends.
[00:32:38] Speaker A: Nope, I was never locked out cuz. Back door underneath the rug. That was the key for the bottom lock. Now if the bolt, the dead bolt was locked. Had to go to the shed. Shed had a code. And then inside of there was a key for the garage.
[00:32:57] Speaker B: Damn, that's some James Bond in the garage. Well, you had to play this whole little like little. What are they?
[00:33:04] Speaker A: My mom and dad were like I'm not gonna put, I'm not gonna have every key in one spot. There's. There's ways to get in somehow. So dead bowls locked on the back. Go to the shed. Shed had the garage door key because we had the garage that had a side door.
[00:33:20] Speaker B: So that's what I'm saying. So you, you, your stuff was an Indiana Jones mystery just to find the key to get to one spot.
[00:33:28] Speaker A: Just in case somebody ever was following me or thought they could just use that one key to get in. It's like, no, you gotta go there.
[00:33:34] Speaker B: Hey, what do they call that? What do they call that again when you're going around looking for stuff?
Scavenger hunt. You got to do a whole scavenger hunt just to get inside your house.
