Chateau Bellview that's from the Bordeaux region from Kota Bordeaux cus Castile on and this is the nobler li duar nice 2016 l save on file bow the shin I think it is not that people now I know this bottle because I had this in my hands because like to no agenda shows ago you gave this to me and I asked John about it. And he said it was really it was a good one.

1:36 Yes. And actually it is a gift from my friend Mike. I can call her my friend Christina Henry and Christina is no agenda listener and then she started listening to Korean the keeper and she and I we text back and forth and we're trying to connect she's a Southwest Airlines flight attendant was gonna say she's got to have some angles some hook while you're now friends were there. What can you what can we get from where can we get upgrades? Right? There's no upgrade on Southwest so we get free drinks. Right? Yes, we've been trying to connect bird give me early bird access. Yes. I've been trying to connect with all of my flying that I've been doing this summer. We haven't made it happen yet. But I'll tell you, she's definitely somebody that I would totally hang out with. And she was she lives in Indiana where I grew up really? From there as well. She just her I don't remember if she's from there, but she does his Midwest girls man. You all the best.

2:27 I know. Well, so she's up. She sent us a letter so I'd like to read it. Okay. Adam and Tina. Here's the wind I meant to hand off to Tina at the airport in Maine. We were trying to connect when I went to see Ellen and it just didn't work out. As I told you Tina, I chickened out thinking there would be some kind of TSA violation. You can use this for the podcast or not. I'm not sure how it will taste after the summer traveling. The summer traveling this bottle has done it is the year JCD which is John suitable Rick recommends of which I have probably of of which I now have probably over 50 bottles. Thanks Buzzkill. What she has 50 bottles of these 50 bottles of the year 2016 She has 50 bottles of the year 2016 Yeah, that's how I take it.

3:12 What is she like? She is he collectors is was it available at Costco? A picture Christina I want to see these bottles. Does she have a wine cellar? Or this is interesting? Yeah. Um, then she goes on she also included a sticker. I won't mention that. But she said by the way, if I ever make it to your house for Pool time with Tina will be drinking Rosae Adam will have to walk me through the Bitcoin donation thing like I'm a five year old. I swear I've tried and cannot figure it out. Maybe you both can meet me on a San Antonio overnight for dinner or breakfast tacos. I don't know why it doesn't feel weird sending money to no agenda, but it feels weird sending you to cash. Tina is too much in the friendzone I guess take care and keep those quarks soaking. Well. This is a very bad development. You can't become friends because they don't want to donate. Oh good. I'm good with that. Nice she cracks me up too. I I was texting with her on my last flight, which we'll talk about just makes me laugh.

4:11 Well, you know, it's nice to have fans become friends. But you know, be careful before you know what they're all like Brian. texted me all day long. I barely get to talk to you anymore. You know, you'd like texting. And he put the phone down. There's another one was my sister. Put the phone down. But what's cool is that you will put your phone down so you don't see the notification. But any law in a storyline. I have a bad habit of picking up my phone. I know you do the same thing too. But I know you're always working. Yeah, but I don't text that much with people. Yeah, I don't have I don't have any. Oh my god and friend. Yeah. And then. Yeah, so between Christina now and I text with Emma mica Anamika. And then I text of course with Brian Brian's like one of my girls. Friends, may we jump? Sure, yeah.

5:01 Happy to hear that. Yeah, I appreciate the wine. Christina. Thank you very much. It's sad that this is coming to an end the hard 75 is going to ruin the show. Oh, yeah. No longer be drinking wine. Wait, don't wait foreseeable future, which is the whole point of this show is to drink and then get y'all loose and have fun things to say. But no, no, you're gonna go eat clean. And when you make fun of me, sir. No, I'm talking about how your your health regimen is going to ruin the show. Well, I informed Adam today that beginning on September 4, I am starting to do the 75 hard challenge, which is 75 days ago.

5:44 75. hard for you. Sorry. Sorry. Guys do that. What's up with that? I can't answer that. Why do you guys do that? Because that's how we're wired, I guess. Anyway, back to my 75 hard challenge. Yes, it's 75 days of no alcohol clean eating two workouts a day, you have to read 10 pages of a nonfiction book every day, and you have to drink a gallon of water. And I'm doing it as a challenge. Of course, I'd like to I'd like to drop a few lbs. But I'm doing it. I'm doing it since I entered the sixth decade of my life. I want to see how far I can take this.

6:31 Oh, it's I mean, you look amazing. First of all, you don't need to do any of this. But I understand the challenge. I have some questions. Yes. When you say you have to eat clean. What exactly does that mean? Because I eat with you? Yes. So does that mean we're not going any restaurants for restaurants? It's 75 days. It's two and a half months? Two and a half months? Three months? I think he's me. We can go to restaurants. Yeah, we can go to restaurants. I just won't eat any alcohol. No sugar. No sugar. No french fries. No. Okay, so let me know how I eat pretty much steaks and shit. Oh, good luck to you. Yeah. But I was all bummed because he's like, you're not gonna be able to drink. What about the show? I think you should make an exception for the show. But and so just a sip.

7:18 Just you can have a sip. I'm looking for people to join me on this health journey too. So if you want to do it together, my sister Tony has committed to doing it with me and I'm going to hold her to it. Sounds like you don't have much faith there. But you know, I mean, I know myself was like, I wouldn't be doing this. Yeah, Tony knows me. I like Tony. Alrighty then. Good. I'm gonna try it. I'm gonna try. Oh, you can do it and you'll do it. I totally can do it. The gallon of water is a lot though. That's a mistake. I'll be in the bathroom all the time. You won't see me and be like, where's Tina? You have done these challenges in the past? Not a 75 No was longer was three months. The last time I did the orange theory to challenge three months. Yeah, it was a long time ago. That was before we were married. By the way. I was trying to get a ring on it. Not that I'd ever system.

8:07 Good. I was trying to get a ring. Oh, okay. Work to trying to keep that ring on. I see. I very good. Ring. Oh, shoot. Hello. I'll give you a ring. Yeah, so it's only I said it's only gonna be about six shows. Maybe five shows? Yeah. I mean, not drinking but I mean, have a sip just to taste it. No. Can you just have a lick? Up there. I did it again. Oh, sorry. Oh, see? See. I'm excited. I'm ready. And I'm gearing up for it. Okay, so about four weeks away. We're doing it after your birthday. Okay, right. Because we got to have cake. We do this Yes. It's all about you. I'm gonna I'm gonna OD on the cake. You know, Tina is always he loves getting me this piece of chocolate cake that they have at HEB. And which, by the way contains a bioengineered food ingredient, which is very disturbing to look at all of it is a good chocolate cake with chocolate frosting as as big. This big dollop on the top, you know comes from those plastic containers and so I'm always grabbing one, but teeny will always remind me she's like, Oh, are you getting your cake? And I have to be honest, I completely forget about the cake. It's in the fridge. And then after dinner, it seems like you can have your cake and you know, we haven't discussed this but the reason why is because she wants the dollop on the top of the cake and it doesn't matter if I'm fool just to tell up you want your cake, don't you? You want your cake you want the dollar you want your cake so

9:37 that I can give you the dollar? Yes, you know, and I could I'm not kidding you. I could eat a whole not a whole camp but I could eat spoonfuls of frosting like I love broth. That's why I like the corner pieces. Like I love frosting so I appreciate you sharing your dollar ya know, it's never a problem to share the dollar. It's just interesting how you force me to have the have the cake Do you want your cake now? You want it so good. Anyway, thanks for the COVID Oh, yes. Really appreciate that. Yes, we are on the tail. Well, I'm winter. So the last show we did. Did you you left not long after that. Well, here we go. Remember I went to Utah to see my friend Katie right and tell about the trip. Oh my god was great for the beginning. Oh, it was.

10:27 Well, it was a long day of traveling because I had to connect in Denver. And then finally got there and it was so great to see you written. In a pass show. I talked about Katie and how she was my very first friend in in Boca Raton, Florida. And we were actually both from Chicago moved from Chicago that like within months of each other. And so she bought a home in right outside of Park City in Utah. And so I went there to stay with her and she has this absolutely stunningly gorgeous home, the largest home I've ever been in. Just beautiful. And so we had a really nice dinner and when I arrived on Wednesday, and then Thursday, we got up and we went to we went hiking, which was nice, and I felt like I was I was in pretty good shape because I just did it in Maine.

11:10 Right. You had your your hiking, you're hiking vibe on? Yes. I apologize for this little cough but I'm getting to that story. So then and then Thursday night, we ended up going to this beautiful resort called the Blue Sky Lodge and it's an opera che Am I saying that right? Opera J resort? A u b e r g? Yeah. I've never heard before. Absolutely beautiful. And so Katie was so generous and she was paying for everything and like, Hey, let me at least buy the drinks. Okay, so ordered a glass of sans serif, sans serif, sans serif. Yeah, like a dinner wine after dinner while we were in the bar. And then I ordered this drink. It was a cocktail that was made specific to the hotel and it told about us, it was called the horse thief. And it was a specially made cocktail in honor of this woman who used to steal abused horses, I guess around where the resort was. She would take these horses sounds like a big story for some gin and some bitters.

12:10 It was it was not my I didn't finish the job. So I'm like, let me pay for the drinks. So the bill comes at $4 for two drinks. I'm like, Oh, my wine. Yeah, crazy. Anyway, this was upscale, I guess this Yeah, this place. Yeah. And the Dinner was great. I mean, it was lovely. Lovely. So then, we got home. And then we were like, we're gonna go to bed early. Because we were up. You clearly didn't eat after that bill. You're like, you know, we'll just have kind of a french fry. He was so generous. She bought dinner. And anyway, it was lovely. But Friday morning, we got up and I was so happy because I slept because the night before I didn't sleep, and I come downstairs. I'm like, Yeah, I slept and we had a whole day, we're gonna ride bikes, we're gonna go downtown, and we had a concert to go to. And she looked at me and said, I'm not feeling well. And I said, Oh, well, long story short, she tested positive for COVID. So I immediately packed up and went to stay in a hotel in downtown park city.

13:13 Now. Why did you want to leave the house? I mean, you had a bedroom. It was a big, big house and everything. I just felt weird. Yeah, I'm sick. It's like you just don't want to be you don't want to worry about anybody else. And I just wanted to remember when I was worried about catching it in number two, I was I wanted her to be comfortable in her own home. So I left and so once I gotta get picked up. No worries. We'll wait. We'll watch you drink and swallow. Great. So So I checked into the hotel. And I decided to go walk toward I walked out to downtown park city, and I wanted to go get breakfast. And so I go and I can you recommend this little place? I don't even remember the name of it. And so I go and I sit down and I'm sitting there and I just noticed this couple to the left of me and you know, I I called Teresa. I was talking to Teresa telling her what happened. And then I hung up the phone and this woman turned to me. She goes I know you from Boca Raton, Florida. And I said, Really? Oh, I was expecting you to say are you? Tina from Korea keeper.

14:18 Are you married to Adam Kirsch? Hey, are you the pod monster? I am a professional podcast you are. And anyway, long story short, she said my daughter played basketball with your daughter in law. Goodness. I don't know. 15 years ago and I I didn't remember them. They remembered me. And so anyway, I thought of all the people in this I mean, being a completely different state. And then yeah, Utah in that place. Yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah. You also contacted me and this is kind of interesting, because I noticed that because you told you texted me. I didn't call baby you never call me. Oh, I do call you. You texted me first you said Katie has COVID I like, and but you already were like, do I feel something? Do I not feel good? And then you're like, I'm gonna book a flight. I'm gonna come home like, what? What are you talking about? No, no, this makes no sense. Your flight is on Saturday. Anyway, what's interesting is that I went through all the scenarios, within, like, 35 seconds, you know, if you have COVID, what do we do? You know, do I have to mobilize private air for airplanes?

15:29 Never read the memo. I always go, I always go through the list. At least you know, I have all my options. And but but you. So you then go through the same list, but you play it out in real time. Oh, my God, what if I have COVID? I can't fly five COVID. You go through pom pom bubble. And it's really interesting to see this kind of slow spiral. I'm like, hold on a second. Get the hotel. I thought it did really well. You did really well. But it's all out loud. And it's just like, oh, man, all the steps. I see you going through the steps of what's going to happen work and all this different cascade and then we can't do this, and we can't do that. And of course, we were worried about our fantastic dinner and all these things that we had set up which we had to cancel anyway. Oh, yeah. That's a whole nother story. So it was just interesting. I was just like, wow, okay. Yeah, I know exactly where you're at. I think I just had to talk it through with my first thought was, I'm just gonna come home and I'm like, well, it'll be cheaper for me just to book a hotel. Yeah, hotel for one night. less hassle.

16:28 And you just go up and you don't want yeah, because you already had to transfer the stupid ass airline. You can't even fly direct anymore. Yeah, I know. Tell me about it. So I ended up that night Katie had gotten tickets to go see the Utah Symphony. They were playing John Williams music. And so I ended up going by myself because she had purchased picnic, picnic meals. And I just went by myself and I sat next to a lovely couple. And of course, I hit them in the mouth with no agenda and told about Karina. I tell everybody. Yeah. And so yeah, so that was really nice. And then I got up and I can't I flew home the next day, and I will I had a really bad headache. And I thought it was the altitude sickness. So I bought some water with oxygen in it, somebody recommended it and some Tylenol and got on the plane, and sat next to this lovely woman. And I was just trying to kind of stay away from her because I didn't know I mean, I was like, This is too soon for me to be infected with COVID. But I really felt like I had altitude sickness. And so this woman Gwendolyn sat next to me, and she just kept talking and talking and talking and she wanted her suitcase in her lap with all her food. We're like, how old How old was Gwendolyn? Dillon was 71. Okay, not that old. And I'm like, I looked to the to the guy next to her. I'm like, Is this her first time flying like, hello. You can't have a suitcase. And so she helped her with their suitcase and he opened it up and the only thing in the suitcase was her insulated lunchbox and then oh, and her

17:58 food. What was it? What was she? I don't know. It looked like I don't know. But I was motioning with Christina about it. And I told Christina is gonna pull up my fork and have a tasty meal. She was really nice, though. But the thing that amazed me she got up to go to the bathroom and she was in there forever. And because I had to, I had to go in there forever. So she finally comes out and she's standing in the aisle and she starts doing jumping jacks in the aisle. Just just before I'm jumping jacks above the head, yeah, clap. Yeah. Well, she forefoot to me she put about five feet tall. Yeah. I kept thinking as because I was I had that headache and I was tired. I didn't sleep well at the hotel. And the thing that kept I kept thinking about was be that leaky bucket to you know, that leaky boat getting nice, be nice. I couldn't just put my headphones on and just turned away from her and which I'm sure you did that eventually. i Yes. God placed but that was a she's a talker.

18:57 So yeah, she was talking to me about this when you shoot it was on? I don't know. I might have COVID. So she was a later day. Latter Day, Latter Day Saints. She was trying to ask me about my religion. I put my foot down. So I love my church. I'm not interested in trying to recruit you joining because I'm not wearing I'm not wearing that skirt. See now that now that you know what that is? That's just it's just bigoted. And ignorant. Kidding. You don't know anything about this? I don't know magic underwear, by the way. I'm kidding. But no, she was really, really nice. And then so yeah, I got home that night and then Sunday woke up and I'm like, yo, you're sick. You were sick. And I tested positive.

19:39 Yeah. Whatever that means. I mean, I didn't I didn't even do the test. I don't know who the hell knows. These tests. It doesn't matter. Yeah, whatever it is. You had something you didn't feel well, that's what hit me harder though than the first time. It really did. And now it was probably a good it was a week I would say maybe a little less than a week. Yeah, cuz because I got it about, um, two days behind you. Yeah. Yeah. You're so sweet. Stay away social, like six feet. So I'm like, Dude, we live in the same house. What am I gonna do? It's like I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it. It's not like doesn't make any difference. And of course I got it. Yeah, yeah, I did don't even remember my symptoms. I had a fever for one day maybe like low 100 Fever a couple of hours.

20:28 Nothing. It really wasn't to hear heard again. It did it. Day three did my hair. I did have hair pain. Yes, I do have COVID hair. A little bit. About COVID foot Jim COVID No, no, not this time. I don't have COVID foot I got a splinter in my finger though. No, it wasn't too bad. The fatigue also not anything like it was but I'm still tired. Yeah, I still feel the fatigue mostly for me. But really, in all honesty, it was like it was like a bad cold. It really was. It wasn't anything. It may have been cold. I mean, that's what a Coronavirus is it is a fluid is it cold it is that's what it is. Yeah. Now you do have a cough, which is nasty. And I love that. I haven't heard you cough at all. Almost during the show. Oh, I coughed a little bit. Yeah, but you get going knowing but it's like some it's like a reaction and just you cough and then now you're making me cough. Yeah. Well, that's. Yeah, I'm sure that it's interesting. Because when you sleep you don't cough? No, I do. See when I'm sleeping. All of a sudden, this just starts to build. Oh, you wake me up. I'm sorry. And I have and I can't, because I have to cough to just clear out my system. But it doesn't work. If I'm laying down. I have to sit up. So I'd had like four times last night. Yeah. I heard you like I know. Like an old man.

21:51 Now blow your nose. I know. I know. I gotta get hair growing out of every orifice. I know. I know. Men are a mess. Yeah, well, I put on a nice shirt. Like if you're gonna look at me, my mind's Well, look, I looked at him. I go, Why are you all dressed up? And what did I say? I'm trying to get lucky here. Trying to get lucky. Yeah, so yeah, so that was kind of better, though. Thank you everybody for all the nice so I know thoughts and prayers. Well, Katie felt so bad. She actually said she gave she gave us COVID She should feel horrible. Lovely. Man. That was the I can't remember the the name I posted it on.

22:31 It's a whole kit. Yeah, it's really beautiful with a ladle with chickens to chicken noodle soups in it which are homemade and homemade rolls. Cookies. Yeah. Like what did you call it? Grandma's dinner rolls or whatever? Oh, yeah. The whole thing was that was cool. It was you know, the first night it was delicious. Because you actually sent me off the first night you said oh, so what can I get you so I have some chicken soup. So I went off to HEB and that already closed the the soup station came home with a pizza. Like this. I got a pizza and empanadas. I'm like okay, baby knows that the thumb teason it was it was what else did you want me I could have gotten your soup and uh, can you would have like killed me if I medically modified ingredient. Oh, everything.

23:18 Everything these days has a at least a genetically modified food ingredient. Yeah. So it was so nice to have that the next day we had we had the soup which was great. I can't eat chicken noodles. No, I can't look at anymore either. I can't eat that. And salmon because you made me salmon when I got home. And now I'm like, Oh, you're off the salmon. No. Well, you want to see me another week. You want it Sam you know he's here I am cooking to your every beck and call. I know you were such a great nurse. You were and then the food was odos Oh my gosh. Yes. Get well package can Kansas Kansas City beef steak steaks, potatoes. That was lovely. We got that and then we got a bottle of wine from Brian. With the curry in the keeper on the box. Beautiful like etched on the box.

24:10 So we basically we got through COVID with alcohol beef and chicken noodle soup. That's right. That's right. And ivermectin honestly, I would say between because we had we took ivermectin the last time we got it. And this time as well. I don't know if the ivermectin did better or the chicken noodle soup and the beef. I think those two actually probably made me feel better than anything. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. Like it was good. And we have hopefully we have immunity now. God knows immunity. Immunity. Who knows? Yeah, exactly. So yes, that was my exciting trip to Utah. And now I'm you're getting ready to go tomorrow night again. Yeah, I'm going to meet Elise, boys poker at our place. Yeah, Have you ever tried to talk me into sleeping with you when you're gone? Every night? Phoebe and I would. I'd sit down on the on the on the carpet in front of the couch with a TV on Man in the High Castle. I'd say Pheebs where are you? She come over. And I just be petting her all night and just just we're just chillin I know she is your shadow now. She is your shadow she when Adam mentions the car? Well, no, he has to cough when he grabs his keys. Yeah, because there she hears his keys. You should see how excited she knows now it's even if I if I get like a Rogen cup like when those Yeti cups and I put ice in it because I always have ice with water. In

25:41 case she's thirsty. So little bowl as well. And for myself. Yeah. So the minute I do that she's she looks at me and she looks at what I'm wearing. Is he going out? Let me see what this is. And if I have my boots on, and then she's already out, then she's you open the door and she slides across. Like when you you went somewhere. I don't know where you went. And you didn't take her and I was home and she was at the back door. Then she ran to the through the screen porch. And then she ran back to the back door and then she's just and then she waited at the backdoor for you like she is she is your shadow. Yeah, she loves you so much. Let's talk about your excursion that you had the other day. I was gonna say yesterday. So I have a new car. I traded in the old car for a new one got a reasonable deal considering who knows if you can ever buy a car again or we can even even ever afford a car again?

26:35 Less than 1000 miles on this baby. Oh, it was new. Yeah. 200 miles it was I mean now it's got low notes. Oh, yes. Yeah, less than 500 What are you talking about? There's nothing so of course, you know, Phoebe's drooling all over it right away. You get one of those inside the car was like dog is kind of like a hammock? Yeah. So it covers the seat and then but you can still stick your head out and she just drools all the way down the side. It's like he loves riding in the car. She loves it. She she should Yeah, she does. She's got a head sticking out. So we went first we went to the out to the to the No to the biker smoke shop to go rolling papers and tips to take her in with you. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. No, they love her there and like, Oh, hey, Phoebe. And she is because everyone gives a treat. She got treat here. And there's always these are hill country people here. So you build the earth. The hill country people. Yeah. So there's no one dude. Just like, is there always like always a good looking dog? And I said, Yeah, it's a rescue and that always, you're like you're going straight to heaven. It goes straight to heaven. Don't Don't stop, you know, don't don't pass go. So everyone's it's always, you know, like, Can I pet her and she's very skittish. But if you were slow and just put her on top of not behind her head top of her head, then she's okay. So we went there, then back in the car. We off went to the vape shop and the vape shop.

28:00 Is this is Kathy and Jerry they have vape militias as this little house across from the hgB. And you know, and they only sell natural vape liquid and high end, no shit, no tools or any of that. It's only high end stuff. And most of it custom. And they have this table, which is kind of like a, if you put microphones on it would be a great podcast table. And there's always these barstools around it. And there's a couple people sitting there. And you know, and Jerry's, and these people have the late 60s 70s. And they have life experience and they know about all the crap about politics. I mean, they could be no agenda. They could host agenda. I don't know if they do.

28:44 I don't know if they do but they do they know you're the pod father. They know I'm the pod father. Yeah, they knew he from Rogan, okay. And there's other dude there, Dwight, and Dwight runs a farmers market. And so you know, we're just chatting about first about Well, I was talking about our vegetable garden, how it so disasters. And he says, You know, I planted what'd he say he planted he was supposed to have 24 buckets of onions and all he had was one Oh, all his tomatoes that I got two edible tomatoes because it's just so dry. No one was able to make it happen. And then we're talking about local politics and this Hey, have a seat. We'd like some coffee. I'm like, okay, because apparently people just dropped by the vapors. Yes.

29:31 People dropped by the vape shop just to hang out. I didn't I didn't know. Where's Adam? He's at the vape shop. We didn't know this. And so you know, we're it's just like one of those coffee shops and Amsterdam. He kind of had this we all drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes, but he were just vaping and so Phoebe is laying down she's relaxed, and people are coming in and I'm really proud of Phoebe because she's she's aware but she's laying down and she's calm and then this four year old girl comes Can I pet him? And I'm like, Look, I look at her dad and like, if she's a rescue, so go release me. I made sure everyone knew what was going on. And she and she's really sweet and you could see, it really was good for Phoebe. Yeah, this will even Dwight, you know, to the sixth generation farmer. He says, Oh, this is really good for this dog.

30:23 Well, because he's the one who told you that she was probably thrown out of the truck when she got pregnant and they probably just that's why she looks at trucks and trailers. And that's where the trailer was traumatizing, never ending source of entertainment and conversation. Okay, so you walk with that dog anywhere. It's good to go. So then we finally you know, you're texting me like, are you alive? What's No, no, I know, you would texted me with an appointment. Yeah. And I'm like, Oh, shit. Let me tell my wife that we're here because she'll think that something's happened. And then we go off to Tractor Supply to go get some food. And that's, that's really the the fun part of the trip is then we drive over to 90, and she's got her head out there and her gums are flying back into our eyes. We again, you know, Michelle, her favorite there who always gives her tree to her walking around it. It's like this is this. This is the dog. Like it's the love.

31:15 She is a celebrity. And then we get in the car won't start. Fucking start. Brand new car won't start. All the lights. Come on everything. Me Adam had the car for about a week. Yeah, took it to HEB. And you were doing the show? Yeah. And I called you and I interrupted the middle of the show. I'm like, your car will not start. And he's been. He's trying to walk me through it. And he's doing the show. And I'm I groceries in the car. I ended up having to call an Uber and come home with the groceries. And then after the show was over, we went back to HEB. You had your starter? Yeah, I had my key with me. And it started right up. So what we think happened is that in that case, your fob battery, maybe the car got delivered with old FOB batteries, which is possible. Yeah. And so maybe mine was empty, but it was not starting.

32:05 And I'm doing exactly the same thing that did and then I'm getting online with the with the roadside assistance. Yes. So you know, I gave up on trying to be in the car. Okay, I got you. Okay. And you're like, Yeah, we're sitting in the car. We got the windows rolled down. 100 degrees. black interior. He and this 100 pound dog that wears the fur coat for windows rolled down. There was a nice when there was breeze going through. Oh, it was like a hairdryer. But I'm waiting for this this roadside assistance. You got the button, you press it and then just pay for that was really fucking bullshit. You know? I mean, really disappointed. They've not heard the last of this from me, dammit. So then anyway, I go there. And he said, bring your key. And so I gave him my key, but I was holding his key by the car. And it's still we think we think we don't know. And so then I'm like, he's like, he, and here's Adam. He goes, we're in the car. We're like, he's like, we're just gonna leave. And so we're driving back and rokai real calmly he goes, I really want to punch something.

33:17 Man, you are awfully calm for wanting to punch them. But then I remembered left the window. You were looking at the app and you're like, it says that there's a window open. There's a window open and so we ended up going back and the window was Oh, yeah. And then started right away. And it started right up. So that's still bullshit. It's incredible bullshit. Anyway, we'll see. We'll see where we're at. If I get stranded with this thing again. It's really good wine. It is good wine. It's going right back. I don't want it anymore but poor What the Why. No, no, if the car doesn't start again, if that ever happens to me, I don't want to need to pick it up. Take it back. Um, but before that was quite the adventure for Phoebe poor Phoebe out took her forever to cool down now she's like, I don't want to get in that damn car doesn't start.

34:05 Anyway, weed. So I am taking her to the vet on Friday because her skin issues are back which is really weird. Really crusting on top of crusty nipples are over but now it's just like the crusty nose and a crusty ear right on the top of the tip of her nose. Just it's like it's like almost like a fun. No, no. You know what? This dog lives inside the house most of the time? Outside running around because it's too darn hot. She just doesn't want to be out there. No, we don't want her out there. We take her out for walks. So it's not like she's living in the wild. These bugs that she has. So anyway, she's going on Friday. She's got a whole host of problems. So yeah, so the vegetables are a dud.

34:47 Oh my gosh, sad we have I'm gonna say it. It's retarded bought broccoli. We have the lancet two of the three lantana is are alive. This is an amazing plant. It is here natively. I happen to find it on our property early in the ones that were in the wild we planted to near that house or three and I think one is dead. I think we lost one. Yeah, the other two COVID Is the other two took now it was already on the ropes. Oh, was it but this is a fantastic plant it has it has it blooms and it has colors. Yes. It's got little clusters of teeny tiny flowers. me that this thing lives with no water. No, because we have not had any water which is scary. Yesterday. There was a fire.

35:34 Fire and Gillespie county still going oh, is it going this morning? Yeah, 16 miles away. And we actually saw the helicopters carrying the buckets of water must have gone by at least 10 times. Yeah. And I said to Adam, we got to think about like, if fire comes around our house, we're gonna we're gonna do first start a fire for a firewall. Second, you end up burning your house down second. I'm reversing I'm the backwashing the pool and using that hose is to come down and scoop out our pool water but we'll lose our monitor. We will seriously that's something we have to think about. Sorry, we're both coughing Yeah, we are. It's a serious issue out here. It is scary. Yeah, this is pretty dry. I was talking to Texas let me says this is one of the worst worst ones in a while.

I'm just gonna be infecting you. So are you using your noise gate? God? Yes. Um, what was I saying? I don't know last year last summer when we moved to remember we got all that rain. So everything was Lush. Beautiful. Yeah, when we get our lawn cut, it's like a dust bowl. Good old Erica.

Since I've seen Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So you don't have anything else. So anyway, as I was saying, I'm leaving for Florida. Tomorrow. We're going to Amelia Island and have a car picking me up at 3:30am Because you know, when you fly to San Antonio, there's no direct flights? No. Well, there's no direct flights from Austin either for this. No, there was not to Jacksonville. And so I can't believe you're doing and Shopko Bob, by the way, I am so sick and tired of cancellations and hearing about the lines and it's a mess everywhere. I did I find I have to go to Georgia in September for the beef initiative. And I'm I mean, I can get a direct flight but even that I don't want I just don't want to do it.

39:52 I hate it. That's the one. The one it's 20 hours. It's the one I checked. The one thing I used to be able to come control, you know, it's like I can control my experience of the airport by determining, you know, usually by how much you pay, you know, so in Southwest is great because if you get the, you know, the premium Early Bird, which is a little bit extra, then you get to go back great because the premium access, so then this is what burns me up about it. Are you listening? Christina? So, so so we by this early bird check in? I'm usually a 40 Wait a minute, wait, but don't you get to go through the priority line at TSA? Oh, no, you don't? Yes, you do. Well, you didn't you did it wrong. Then with the first of all, you always just get in the priority lane and act like you belong.

40:41 You know what, they don't even check your boarding pass you are what you do is you get into the priority Lane act like that place and act like you own the place your walk, right. Okay. So once you get to the gate, you're like, Okay, I bought early check in. I'm in the age of 40. But wait a minute, there's all that pre boarding people there is 50 that aren't even in the age group that get on before anybody else. Okay, let me ask you a question. What problem do you have with veterans active duty? Sometimes they're not. They're just people that just walk on. And you know what, if you have one person in a wheelchair, many people may have six other family members. You gotta have handlers and people with young children as a friendly airline, hey, you know what, tomorrow when you're there, and you're and you're looking at all that you like, or you know what all you have to do is think a leaky bucket. Like a bucket.

41:38 You know, what I was flying home from? I flew from Salt Lake City to Dallas, and then Dallas, right to San Antonio, which is like, I don't know, less than an hour. The guy next to me. He's like, Yeah, I'm really freaked out about flying. He ordered and a 45 minute flight, a double Jack and Coke. I'm like, damn, especially at altitude. Oh, that's not good. Yeah, you better just eating an edible. Yeah. Or mushrooms. Mushrooms. I would not know. Yeah, but what is it? Oh, so anyway, so yes. So right before the show starts I get a text from my daughter. My flights been canceled. She's flying from LaGuardia to Jacksonville. My flights been canceled. They just canceled her flight and tried to rebook her for a four o'clock flight getting it at midnight.

42:26 Yeah, I ended up just really talking about another airline. So fingers crossed. I'm going to be able to find you because I mean, the reason why is crew hours and all that shit. Yeah, but united I think LaGuardia is a united hub. That's why I went straight to them. Oh, yeah. Cuz like Oh, okay. Yeah, so yes, I'm heading out it's probably even better. And I got her comfort plus, I know. Yeah, that's a good step down. Man. I would not book anything for the kids that I wouldn't book myself that's all I could justify it next time. I'm like, I think I need an upgrade. So I'm in Florida from Thursday to Sunday and we're just the my number one goal gain as much weight as it possibly can.

It's it's been a lot. It's been a lot. I'm really I'm really obsessed. The one thing I'm truly upset about is the limitation of travel. It's the limitation is one thing, but it's the unreliability because we like to travel we traveled great together, but just the hassle now of all the bullshit. It's like how old for this and now, like I really want to do it, but you know what, fuck it. I'll sit here at home. I know and rebuild the studio for the fourth time.

1:01:21 Okay, so I had to miss it when I got sick. But I was there on Sunday. And so lovely church, and so I can't wait to go one of these days, I ordered a Bible. And so I have my Bible and in church, he was saying, what is the one message that you're getting here tonight? Like, what is it pay attention? When we're doing the worship songs pay attention. And it came through loud and clear to me that before I do anything before I pick up my phone, here that guy No, here. I don't know what it was going on trying. Okay, before I pick up my phone before I do anything in the morning, yes. To read the Bible. It came through that came to you. Oh my gosh, yes. Like loud and clear. Like pick up the Bible and just read it pretend that I've been seeing do it every morning. Yeah, the type is so small on this Bible, though, that it hurts my eyes. But yes. And so now I read the introduction about their 66 books, and I read how it's organized and have a better understanding. And yeah, so if that was the message that I got loud and clear, that's so cool. The numerology of the Bible, you know, the the number of letters and how many vowels are used? It's an it's a complete, mind bending. Organization of words, that I had no idea, because it just starts with the 66 books. But then you look at how, yeah, exact numbers are used in

1:02:52 certain sequences. And it's like, How is this even possible now to write within those constraints? I know, I know. I just I love I love the church, I love the community. And the message to was notice the work of God and be aware that God wants to touch people through your life. And so that leaky bucket, I always think about leaky bucket all the time that has just impacted me so much. So I think about that in my actions and interacting with other people about being that leaky bucket. And he said something too, he said, grow up, grow out and grow deep. grow up, grow out and grow deep. I missed that. I didn't hear him. Yeah, he said that. And he said, Everything starts with love it.

And you know, I love how you're just jamming. You are driving the agenda. Here's your show and enjoy. Yes, it's just It'll be just like downtown downtown Toronto and the keeper. Totally, we just take the curry part out.

1:07:24 So, um, you know how we do the two questions at the end? Oh, yeah, sure. Sure. Brian sent a bunch of questions, too. And. Okay, Brian, questions. You don't have to answer this question. I will answer one of his questions. But one of his questions were, if you had to choose between your head being twice as large or half the size, which would you pick? That's what I mean. It's like, you can't you can't let anybody just in to produce the show. That's not a good. I'm not even going to answer that question. A good question. Anyway, one of his legit questions was What's the strangest food you've ever eaten?

1:08:06 The strangest food I've ever eaten. You've had a lot of exposure I have, I would say. I'm not really proud of this one. But it was for a documentary in Thailand. And now this is 9090 9091. And so first they so an aphrodisiac and delicacy is Cobra blood. So this restaurant they went through this whole we filmed the whole thing of course it was incredibly sad because you start with a live Cobra and you wind up slicing and bleeding them into a glass of alcohol. Drink that. So blood in the alcohol and then you eat the snake later. Which tastes surprisingly like so I think that in Thailand in general, I had a lot of things I don't even remember what the what the food was. I liked it all though. It was like the Cobra blood.

1:09:08 Well, it had kind of a tingling because of the alcohol is so gross. Yeah, it was no teeth bread. Oh, yeah. My lips were red and everything from the blood. Oh, yeah, it was it was great for the show. Believe me look great. But it was I feel kind of bad about it. But anything in Thailand I enjoyed all of their food all of their their weird spicy shit. Yeah, that's. That's one of the weirdest that I can remember. How about you? Well, I haven't had such an adventurous life. You have. Come on. You've eaten some weird. No, I would the weirdest thing were sweetbreads that I ate, which are like, kidneys are they are the organs, aren't they organs aren't sweetbreads organs.

1:09:50 I thought sweetbreads were testicles. No, no. Yeah, I think I think you had some balls. No. Balls, you didn't know it. squishy no and I got I was at a it was a wine pairing dinner Could you roll it around the cheek? It was when you beat it it did it go pop like a grape. All right. It was not bad. They were deep fried. Sure, of course, that's the best way to know sweetbreads and I got violently ill that night. So that's why you don't like now? I'm not adventurous like that. No. Are you I will not eat almost anything. Oh, well, no food. We know that you try the treats all the time. He's like, man, these bones are pretty good. Those sticks that we have. But of course, it's drier than you think it is.

1:10:40 Disgusting. I've given into my dog. I want to make sure that, you know, this is a guy that won't eat chicken breasts, but he'll eat a dog treat. Chicken breasts just disgusting. Dog treats, man. There's something good going on there. Anyway, so Okay, so I have our two questions. Now. These are the questions from here come the real question. Question. Okay. All right. All right. Here we go. All right. Tell me a story about your mom. A story about my mom will my fondest memory one of my fondest memories of my mom is first my parents were so incredibly encouraging with all my antennas and radio shit, which kind of the opposite of you? Yes. They were. They were very, they always encouraged it.

1:11:36 And they didn't really complain. I had antennas on the roof. I was always on the roof. I mean, can you imagine your kids on the roof, like five times a week, they didn't give a shit anymore. Like, whatever, just don't Oh, my gosh, and nowadays be like you're not getting up on the roof, you're gonna kill yourself. I'd be on the roof. And so I was setting up an FM transmitter was 14 or 15. And I remember I was trying to figure out how far the signal reached and my mom said, Come on. Let's hop in the car. And she drove around for an hour with me to find all the different corners of the of the of the village and she back it up and because you know the antenna is directional, and we'd be listening on the car radio and it was so nice. I just remember that was like, holy shit. How cool is my mom that she's driving around? What's really cool. I have a pirate radio station blasting. And by the time we got back there were a couple of kids in front of our door like hey, man, we hear your station. Oh, yeah. So that was just one of the stories Nice. Nice. How about you? That's a fun memory. Yeah, don't have fun.

1:12:40 Oh, come on. Give us a shit memory. Then about your mom, you got it. You've got to share something. What I remember about my mom, Pat. Pat was a smoker when I was growing up. She actually in 1990. She got hypnotized and stopped cold turkey for 30 years. stop cold turkey. But I remember as a little girl, she would write us a note. And we'd have to take it down to Roy's pharmacy. I would say please keep Tina a package of Kent one hundreds, oh my God, and they give you money, give you money to buy money. And I'd have to buy my mom's cigarettes and come back home and give her her her cigarettes and mentioned the change and the change. We never got anything. Nope. And she would tip is a rude smoker. I mean, she would smoke at the dinner table. Oh my god. Oh, no. But I remember one time I went to Roy's pharmacy to go get my mom pack cigarettes. And I was like, you know, I'm gonna steal some candy this is what I would do. I would take a little paper bag. And I go and grab some candy. I'd go around the corner and I put it in the bag. And then I would just walk out like one day, all of a sudden I grabbed the candy. Got my little paper bag went around the corner, put in there and then Roy grabbed my arm. And he called the police. Oh.

1:14:01 Oh no. Yes. And you were eight. I was eight years. Did you have the cigarettes with you too? I'm sure I did. And all I got in big trouble. These wait until your father gets home. Oh, yeah, I got sent to my room. And yeah, I need to tell a different story. That wasn't a fun memory. Traumatic story, which I just recalled. And it's it was very traumatic for a very long time for me. Oh, no. Yeah. So on. I think it was this is called true confession. Yeah, I think so, um, five or six. And I would walk back from school. That first grade kindergarten, first grade, first grade. And it was it was you know, it was probably like quarter of a mile wasn't that bad. The crossing guards and it was a straight line. You couldn't really mess it up. And it was safe neighborhood in Maryland. And I think there was like, once a week, sometimes my mom would be doing something so I'd have to go into the To do the court, I remember the name of the court crazy how we were I know, Mitchell Street, and this was do we court? And I would, I would be with the neighbors there and wait until my mom came home. And I remember walking home one day and the car wasn't out front. I'm like, Oh, I guess I have to go to do the court. So I walked back, I go up to do the court. And I go to, I wish I remembered her name. He's like, Adam, what do you do here? I said, Well, I think you're supposed to be here today. And

1:15:33 she says, My mom didn't mention anything. So she tried to call my mom said it's a busy signal. So you know, waiting and waiting, she tried calling a couple times, and then would just keep getting a busy signal said, you know, I think you should really go go and check and make sure that you know that that you should not be home. So now, so not being there, like half an hour, maybe 4040. I don't remember. And I remember walking down mitr Street and I see a cop car in front of my house. And oh, my mom comes out and she's flipping. Oh, she was so I guess my dad had taken the car or something. And so she thought I'd been kidnapped. And of course, she was trying to call everybody this is the days before call waiting. So you know, the business right, the busy signal I remember. And I felt really, really guilty. I still feel weirdly No. Yeah, it was very truth. It was parents were worried about you. I don't know.

1:16:33 Last, but that didn't last past seven once I started to turn into a shit at eight or nine. Yeah. I remember when we were kids, we would walk over to HESCO pool which was probably it had to be at least a mile, mile and a half from our house. We would be gone all day we would wash your hair in the morning and swim at the pool. My mom would give us a quarter so we could buy ice cream. And then after we would walk home and we'd be gone all day long. That's what you do. I would never let my girls do that when I was growing up. No. Anyway, he was so crazy how we recall things like I remember our phone number. When we when I was growing up. I remember it just came to me 8454855 I've just remembered it. Well, you were that's what it was you were the touchtone teller. So that was for the bank. It's kind of in your your DNA.

1:17:22 All right, last question. Tell me a dream. You remember. You don't dream? You can? Of course everybody dreams. You don't remember it. I sleep so deeply I relate to you tell me a dream that you have you start. I have this reoccurring dream all the time. Where I am in school.
