1
00:00:11,311 --> 00:00:11,578
Hello.
2
00:00:11,578 --> 00:00:11,978
Welcome to
3
00:00:11,978 --> 00:00:13,313
another episode of On the Floor
4
00:00:13,313 --> 00:00:14,581
with Wayne and Rob.
5
00:00:14,581 --> 00:00:14,881
I’m Wayne
6
00:00:14,881 --> 00:00:16,816
Highlander, director of sales
7
00:00:16,816 --> 00:00:18,451
for Bona Adhesives.
8
00:00:18,852 --> 00:00:22,222
And I'm Rob Johnson from Bona Training.
9
00:00:22,222 --> 00:00:23,890
You sounded unsure
10
00:00:23,890 --> 00:00:25,291
that you are still director.
11
00:00:25,291 --> 00:00:26,326
Did you catch that?
12
00:00:26,326 --> 00:00:27,994
You cut that, didn't you, fellows?
13
00:00:27,994 --> 00:00:28,561
I thought I.
14
00:00:28,561 --> 00:00:29,763
Thought you still not saying
15
00:00:29,763 --> 00:00:31,865
you're still not used to saying director.
16
00:00:31,865 --> 00:00:34,067
I thought a slide that.
17
00:00:34,067 --> 00:00:36,236
But there was a Freudian slip.
18
00:00:36,302 --> 00:00:38,104
There was a hesitation wasn't there.
19
00:00:38,104 --> 00:00:39,973
There was a hesitation.
20
00:00:39,973 --> 00:00:41,741
Yes. Some.
21
00:00:41,741 --> 00:00:44,411
Oh right. Rob.
22
00:00:44,411 --> 00:00:46,479
Hey, big, exciting news way
23
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,148
with bonus training.
24
00:00:48,148 --> 00:00:49,215
You're kidding.
25
00:00:49,215 --> 00:00:51,451
No, no. Wow.
26
00:00:51,985 --> 00:00:53,553
We have set the date
27
00:00:53,553 --> 00:00:54,721
for the Christmas school.
28
00:00:54,721 --> 00:00:56,122
Everybody write this down
29
00:00:56,122 --> 00:00:58,825
if you want to be part of that Boehner
30
00:00:59,192 --> 00:01:00,160
Christmas school.
31
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,294
We did it last year.
32
00:01:01,294 --> 00:01:02,529
We did it.
33
00:01:02,529 --> 00:01:03,596
We did it a few years ago
34
00:01:03,596 --> 00:01:04,998
right before COVID.
35
00:01:04,998 --> 00:01:06,032
It was awesome.
36
00:01:06,032 --> 00:01:07,200
People had a great time.
37
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,569
We had a lot of fun. And
38
00:01:10,870 --> 00:01:12,572
COVID shut us down, but we
39
00:01:12,572 --> 00:01:15,642
came back awesome last year,
40
00:01:16,743 --> 00:01:18,311
had an awesome time.
41
00:01:18,311 --> 00:01:19,813
And this year,
42
00:01:19,813 --> 00:01:21,347
like I said, write this down.
43
00:01:21,347 --> 00:01:25,185
It's going to be December 12th and 13th.
44
00:01:25,185 --> 00:01:28,488
So it's like two weeks before Christmas.
45
00:01:29,989 --> 00:01:30,423
Mr.
46
00:01:30,423 --> 00:01:33,093
Alfredo does an amazing job.
47
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:34,327
He gets
48
00:01:34,761 --> 00:01:36,229
he does the whole place up
49
00:01:36,229 --> 00:01:37,764
with Christmas decorations.
50
00:01:37,764 --> 00:01:39,199
Christmas trees, presents
51
00:01:39,199 --> 00:01:42,702
under the trees for everybody.
52
00:01:42,702 --> 00:01:43,603
So
53
00:01:44,337 --> 00:01:46,239
seven, seven months out, you
54
00:01:46,239 --> 00:01:48,508
thought this is the time to announce it.
55
00:01:49,809 --> 00:01:51,744
You know why? Why?
56
00:01:51,744 --> 00:01:53,413
Because we have had
57
00:01:53,413 --> 00:01:54,647
I would say Jeff
58
00:01:54,647 --> 00:01:56,683
and I have had already this year,
59
00:01:57,050 --> 00:01:59,185
about a dozen people ask,
60
00:01:59,619 --> 00:02:01,488
when is the Christmas goal?
61
00:02:01,488 --> 00:02:02,856
Hey, hey.
62
00:02:02,956 --> 00:02:04,557
Yeah, well, get mad at me.
63
00:02:04,557 --> 00:02:06,993
I just. I know.
64
00:02:06,993 --> 00:02:08,027
I remember.
65
00:02:08,027 --> 00:02:09,496
Feels like you're angry.
66
00:02:09,496 --> 00:02:11,498
I invited you last year.
67
00:02:11,498 --> 00:02:12,465
I know.
68
00:02:12,866 --> 00:02:15,201
So maybe you should put this down.
69
00:02:15,201 --> 00:02:15,668
I mean,
70
00:02:16,936 --> 00:02:18,605
how awesome would that be?
71
00:02:18,605 --> 00:02:20,306
Wayne and Santa
72
00:02:20,306 --> 00:02:22,308
in the same room at the same time.
73
00:02:22,308 --> 00:02:23,576
The Grinch.
74
00:02:24,144 --> 00:02:25,378
No, that's.
75
00:02:25,378 --> 00:02:26,479
That sounds.
76
00:02:26,479 --> 00:02:27,580
I've seen the pictures every year.
77
00:02:27,580 --> 00:02:31,050
It sounds like a lot of fun, but
78
00:02:31,584 --> 00:02:33,019
before that,
79
00:02:33,153 --> 00:02:34,320
you and I are going to do something
80
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,689
exciting on June 7th.
81
00:02:37,757 --> 00:02:38,525
In New York and.
82
00:02:38,525 --> 00:02:39,425
It on the road,
83
00:02:39,425 --> 00:02:40,960
taking it on the road,
84
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,962
on the floor, on the road.
85
00:02:42,962 --> 00:02:44,030
June 7th
86
00:02:44,030 --> 00:02:45,932
at the New Jersey RTC
87
00:02:45,932 --> 00:02:47,834
Regional Training Center,
88
00:02:47,834 --> 00:02:50,837
Manalapan, New Jersey.
89
00:02:50,837 --> 00:02:52,539
Rob and I are going to be there.
90
00:02:52,539 --> 00:02:55,141
We're going to going to do a demo on Flo
91
00:02:55,408 --> 00:02:56,809
and Vertical,
92
00:02:56,809 --> 00:02:58,011
and Rob and I are going to be there.
93
00:02:58,011 --> 00:02:59,045
We're going to have
94
00:02:59,045 --> 00:03:02,382
we're going to have a music and some food
95
00:03:02,582 --> 00:03:05,785
and raffles and a good time.
96
00:03:05,785 --> 00:03:07,720
So anybody that's in that area
97
00:03:08,955 --> 00:03:09,422
or if
98
00:03:09,422 --> 00:03:10,590
you feel like taking your family
99
00:03:10,590 --> 00:03:12,492
in New York, gosh, I love New York.
100
00:03:12,492 --> 00:03:15,395
I freaking love New York.
101
00:03:15,428 --> 00:03:18,031
We could spend a day there.
102
00:03:18,097 --> 00:03:19,365
Then the next two or three days
103
00:03:19,365 --> 00:03:24,103
spent in New York would be a lot of fun.
104
00:03:24,103 --> 00:03:26,039
So yeah, I'm excited about the music.
105
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:28,908
I didn't know we were having music.
106
00:03:29,275 --> 00:03:30,577
Is that why you're having me down?
107
00:03:30,577 --> 00:03:31,711
Just to say.
108
00:03:31,711 --> 00:03:32,912
No? No.
109
00:03:32,912 --> 00:03:34,080
New York.
110
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,182
New York.
111
00:03:37,450 --> 00:03:38,184
A bit.
112
00:03:38,184 --> 00:03:40,687
I'll sing if you want. No, that's okay.
113
00:03:40,687 --> 00:03:42,155
Do you ever think I'm.
114
00:03:42,155 --> 00:03:43,022
No, no.
115
00:03:43,022 --> 00:03:43,990
We're just going to have some music.
116
00:03:43,990 --> 00:03:45,592
We have fun, get together four guys,
117
00:03:45,592 --> 00:03:46,192
get together with
118
00:03:46,192 --> 00:03:47,727
some drinks, we'll have some food.
119
00:03:47,727 --> 00:03:49,662
We'll just,
120
00:03:49,662 --> 00:03:52,465
you know, we'll do a quick little demo
121
00:03:53,299 --> 00:03:54,601
and it would be a good time.
122
00:03:55,635 --> 00:03:57,003
We'll have a big crowd for that.
123
00:03:57,003 --> 00:03:57,503
So that'll be.
124
00:03:57,503 --> 00:03:59,005
Exciting. Seventh.
125
00:03:59,005 --> 00:04:00,540
June 7th.
126
00:04:00,974 --> 00:04:03,276
Nice store prize giveaway.
127
00:04:03,276 --> 00:04:05,311
So anyway, it's in the area.
128
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,083
And that's at the New Jersey
129
00:04:10,617 --> 00:04:13,253
Training Center, Manalapan, New York
130
00:04:13,253 --> 00:04:15,021
or Manalapan, New Jersey.
131
00:04:15,021 --> 00:04:15,521
Yeah.
132
00:04:15,521 --> 00:04:17,090
And the place is called
133
00:04:17,090 --> 00:04:19,292
a Pear Tree Plaza.
134
00:04:19,292 --> 00:04:21,761
I think it's right off of Route 33.
135
00:04:21,761 --> 00:04:22,262
Yeah, I'm
136
00:04:22,262 --> 00:04:24,631
going to look up the address for that.
137
00:04:24,631 --> 00:04:26,766
Yeah, yeah.
138
00:04:26,766 --> 00:04:27,634
That's where I can find it.
139
00:04:27,634 --> 00:04:28,434
Quick.
140
00:04:29,736 --> 00:04:31,471
You've been there enough times.
141
00:04:31,471 --> 00:04:32,772
It's like a second home for you.
142
00:04:32,772 --> 00:04:33,473
Yeah.
143
00:04:34,374 --> 00:04:36,042
You don't know half of that.
144
00:04:36,042 --> 00:04:36,809
I don't have patience
145
00:04:36,809 --> 00:04:38,077
for anything anymore.
146
00:04:38,077 --> 00:04:39,412
I know you don't.
147
00:04:39,412 --> 00:04:41,114
It's Friday.
148
00:04:41,114 --> 00:04:43,416
You've said everybody is terrible.
149
00:04:43,416 --> 00:04:44,984
On Fridays.
150
00:04:45,151 --> 00:04:45,952
My wife and I,
151
00:04:45,952 --> 00:04:48,087
we go to this local Mexican restaurant.
152
00:04:48,855 --> 00:04:49,956
And first of all,
153
00:04:49,956 --> 00:04:51,457
the guy always gives me the bill.
154
00:04:51,457 --> 00:04:52,992
I've never once paid the bill.
155
00:04:52,992 --> 00:04:55,194
I've never once paid the bill.
156
00:04:55,194 --> 00:04:57,196
So I always hand it to Judy.
157
00:04:57,196 --> 00:04:59,332
And when we go out to pay
158
00:04:59,365 --> 00:05:01,501
over the counter to pay, I can't eat.
159
00:05:01,501 --> 00:05:02,502
I don't even have the patience to
160
00:05:02,502 --> 00:05:03,970
stay there. I walk outside.
161
00:05:05,705 --> 00:05:07,540
I just I walk to the car.
162
00:05:07,540 --> 00:05:08,141
I just don't.
163
00:05:08,141 --> 00:05:08,641
I just don't.
164
00:05:08,641 --> 00:05:09,909
I'm running out of patience, man.
165
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:11,077
As I'm getting older.
166
00:05:11,077 --> 00:05:11,811
You know,
167
00:05:11,811 --> 00:05:13,746
that means you turn into a crotchety
168
00:05:13,746 --> 00:05:14,280
old man.
169
00:05:14,280 --> 00:05:15,648
You don't want to do that.
170
00:05:15,648 --> 00:05:17,350
I don't think I'm doing that.
171
00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:18,885
I really don't think I'm doing that.
172
00:05:18,885 --> 00:05:19,819
I just
173
00:05:19,819 --> 00:05:20,887
I just don't have the patience
174
00:05:20,887 --> 00:05:22,121
that I used to have.
175
00:05:22,121 --> 00:05:22,689
That's
176
00:05:22,689 --> 00:05:24,190
that's like the definition
177
00:05:24,190 --> 00:05:26,492
of a crotchety old man.
178
00:05:26,592 --> 00:05:32,265
Maybe.
179
00:05:32,265 --> 00:05:32,732
Yeah.
180
00:05:32,732 --> 00:05:34,867
So if you find an address, you know what?
181
00:05:34,867 --> 00:05:36,302
I'm so close.
182
00:05:36,302 --> 00:05:38,604
Oh, my gosh.
183
00:05:38,604 --> 00:05:41,441
All right, here we go.
184
00:05:41,441 --> 00:05:42,475
Hey, what's the address?
185
00:05:42,475 --> 00:05:43,142
Rob.
186
00:05:43,443 --> 00:05:46,512
If you're coming on June 7th
187
00:05:46,512 --> 00:05:48,715
or the 12th and the 13th, December,
188
00:05:48,748 --> 00:05:50,283
the Christmas school,
189
00:05:50,583 --> 00:05:54,120
it is to 89, Route 33,
190
00:05:54,420 --> 00:05:56,823
Building C, Suite four,
191
00:05:57,457 --> 00:05:59,092
Manalapan, New Jersey,
192
00:05:59,092 --> 00:06:02,595
zero seven, 7 to 6.
193
00:06:03,062 --> 00:06:04,530
Look for the sign
194
00:06:04,530 --> 00:06:06,032
when you get really close.
195
00:06:06,032 --> 00:06:08,368
It says Pear Tree Plaza
196
00:06:09,202 --> 00:06:11,571
pulled into the Pear Tree Plaza.
197
00:06:11,571 --> 00:06:15,942
I like the second building on the right.
198
00:06:15,942 --> 00:06:18,244
You can't miss it.
199
00:06:18,244 --> 00:06:20,813
And then June 7th will, at our event,
200
00:06:20,813 --> 00:06:22,014
will give away t shirts
201
00:06:22,014 --> 00:06:24,016
and it's going to be good time.
202
00:06:24,016 --> 00:06:25,351
And I'm you and
203
00:06:25,351 --> 00:06:26,386
I haven't been together in a long
204
00:06:26,386 --> 00:06:26,886
time, Rob.
205
00:06:26,886 --> 00:06:28,020
So it'll be we
206
00:06:28,020 --> 00:06:28,921
may, we'll do a podcast
207
00:06:28,921 --> 00:06:30,423
from there for sure.
208
00:06:30,423 --> 00:06:30,757
You know, I'm
209
00:06:30,757 --> 00:06:31,791
thinking of bringing the maybe
210
00:06:31,791 --> 00:06:32,759
I'll bring the grill down
211
00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:34,460
to do some chicken or something too.
212
00:06:34,460 --> 00:06:36,062
That'll be great.
213
00:06:36,129 --> 00:06:38,231
Yeah. If you do that, that will. Awesome.
214
00:06:38,231 --> 00:06:40,366
Yeah, I think I'll do that. Okay.
215
00:06:41,334 --> 00:06:42,902
You might want to let Jeff afraid or no.
216
00:06:42,902 --> 00:06:45,037
So we don't also have a caterer there,
217
00:06:45,471 --> 00:06:46,606
you know, to get.
218
00:06:46,606 --> 00:06:47,640
A ticket to catering
219
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:48,908
and I'll just do some chicken.
220
00:06:48,908 --> 00:06:50,443
No big deal.
221
00:06:50,443 --> 00:06:51,310
I'm going to tell you the words.
222
00:06:51,310 --> 00:06:52,412
Always room for chicken.
223
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:53,613
Chicken's like jello.
224
00:06:53,613 --> 00:06:55,848
Yeah, always room for jello.
225
00:06:57,116 --> 00:06:59,252
We tell you the worst distributor event
226
00:06:59,252 --> 00:07:00,553
I ever did
227
00:07:03,489 --> 00:07:04,090
when Bono.
228
00:07:04,090 --> 00:07:04,891
When Bono came out
229
00:07:04,891 --> 00:07:05,992
with the green sandpaper,
230
00:07:05,992 --> 00:07:08,628
I remember years ago. Like,
231
00:07:08,628 --> 00:07:09,729
have you about ten years ago
232
00:07:09,729 --> 00:07:10,830
now at least?
233
00:07:10,830 --> 00:07:13,199
Well, I've been born in nine years,
234
00:07:13,199 --> 00:07:15,368
so say 99 or ten years ago.
235
00:07:16,235 --> 00:07:18,604
So it's green.
236
00:07:18,604 --> 00:07:20,506
The sandpaper is green, right.
237
00:07:20,506 --> 00:07:21,441
So I said, I'm
238
00:07:21,441 --> 00:07:22,809
going to do this big event.
239
00:07:22,809 --> 00:07:25,077
And I said, just tell the story before.
240
00:07:25,077 --> 00:07:27,180
I know I don't remember this. Okay.
241
00:07:28,214 --> 00:07:29,449
So I said, All right, I'm
242
00:07:29,449 --> 00:07:30,650
going to make a big deal about this.
243
00:07:30,650 --> 00:07:31,517
When my distributor,
244
00:07:31,517 --> 00:07:33,386
I would have this big function.
245
00:07:33,386 --> 00:07:35,755
One of our customers is has a band.
246
00:07:36,422 --> 00:07:38,691
So we'll bring the band
247
00:07:38,791 --> 00:07:42,228
say bonus sandpaper is a green sandpaper.
248
00:07:42,228 --> 00:07:43,796
So it's green,
249
00:07:44,263 --> 00:07:46,098
I think in right away I'm
250
00:07:46,098 --> 00:07:49,135
thinking bagpipes.
251
00:07:49,135 --> 00:07:51,304
So I hired a bagpiper from Craigslist on.
252
00:07:51,304 --> 00:07:53,473
Ever do that? Ever.
253
00:07:53,573 --> 00:07:54,540
Ever.
254
00:07:54,807 --> 00:07:56,943
Oh, I think I did tell the story.
255
00:07:56,943 --> 00:07:58,711
I don't know if you ask.
256
00:07:58,711 --> 00:07:59,479
The same people.
257
00:07:59,479 --> 00:08:00,847
It was with a different show
258
00:08:00,847 --> 00:08:01,714
and a different guy.
259
00:08:01,714 --> 00:08:03,149
I don't remember this one.
260
00:08:03,149 --> 00:08:03,583
Okay.
261
00:08:03,583 --> 00:08:05,251
So the same paper,
262
00:08:05,251 --> 00:08:06,853
you know, I called everybody.
263
00:08:06,853 --> 00:08:07,954
All right, this is a big event.
264
00:08:07,954 --> 00:08:09,422
And some people from Bone,
265
00:08:09,422 --> 00:08:09,922
it flew in
266
00:08:09,922 --> 00:08:12,391
that should have flown in for this event
267
00:08:12,391 --> 00:08:14,393
is think this is that this
268
00:08:15,194 --> 00:08:16,863
no should not have flown
269
00:08:16,863 --> 00:08:18,297
in for this event. But I'm
270
00:08:19,532 --> 00:08:20,233
so
271
00:08:21,133 --> 00:08:21,868
I think we have like
272
00:08:21,868 --> 00:08:23,135
three boxes of sandpaper there
273
00:08:23,135 --> 00:08:25,571
because the the truck had landed yet.
274
00:08:25,571 --> 00:08:27,840
So all this great big massive event,
275
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,041
there are literally three boxes
276
00:08:29,041 --> 00:08:30,543
sandpaper sitting on a on a
277
00:08:30,543 --> 00:08:32,812
on a, on a table.
278
00:08:32,812 --> 00:08:35,081
And they had the Irish bagpiper
279
00:08:35,081 --> 00:08:37,183
come in playing
280
00:08:38,017 --> 00:08:40,753
here you see the movie Stonehenge.
281
00:08:40,753 --> 00:08:43,122
Well, they did a documentary on
282
00:08:43,322 --> 00:08:43,956
this band.
283
00:08:43,956 --> 00:08:44,357
It was like
284
00:08:44,357 --> 00:08:47,360
it was a mockumentary or whatever.
285
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,129
And this band,
286
00:08:50,129 --> 00:08:51,097
they're going to have the great,
287
00:08:51,097 --> 00:08:51,364
you know,
288
00:08:51,364 --> 00:08:52,798
you know, Stonehenge, right
289
00:08:52,798 --> 00:08:55,034
in the in England, the big stone.
290
00:08:55,201 --> 00:08:57,637
The big stone. The massive. Stone. Okay.
291
00:08:57,937 --> 00:08:59,138
So anyway, that doesn't know
292
00:08:59,138 --> 00:09:00,973
the Stonehenge in the
293
00:09:00,973 --> 00:09:03,342
or Stonehenge is in there. Stonehenge.
294
00:09:03,342 --> 00:09:04,810
I can't remember where they all it is.
295
00:09:04,810 --> 00:09:05,845
It's in England.
296
00:09:05,845 --> 00:09:08,781
I seen it when I was a kid in England.
297
00:09:08,781 --> 00:09:11,217
But here's how we saw everything as kids.
298
00:09:11,217 --> 00:09:12,318
We drove by it, done like
299
00:09:12,318 --> 00:09:13,352
60 miles an hour.
300
00:09:14,820 --> 00:09:16,022
No man didn't even downshift.
301
00:09:16,022 --> 00:09:16,923
It's like one of the wonders
302
00:09:16,923 --> 00:09:19,592
of the world. We didn't even stop.
303
00:09:19,825 --> 00:09:21,661
We even. We didn't even slow down.
304
00:09:21,661 --> 00:09:23,329
It was like you could see it
305
00:09:23,329 --> 00:09:27,166
there, but we didn't even stop it anyhow.
306
00:09:27,166 --> 00:09:29,502
Yeah, we got that in Kentucky, so
307
00:09:32,838 --> 00:09:34,173
the stone heads are massive.
308
00:09:34,173 --> 00:09:34,473
There's this
309
00:09:34,473 --> 00:09:35,775
massive stone formation
310
00:09:35,775 --> 00:09:37,109
that nobody knows to this day
311
00:09:37,109 --> 00:09:38,477
how they actually got there.
312
00:09:38,477 --> 00:09:39,979
How do you know?
313
00:09:40,212 --> 00:09:41,981
That's what I mean.
314
00:09:41,981 --> 00:09:43,716
We could go. By it at 60.
315
00:09:43,716 --> 00:09:44,951
You didn't see it.
316
00:09:44,951 --> 00:09:45,685
We saw it.
317
00:09:45,685 --> 00:09:47,219
But you know, that's what they say.
318
00:09:47,219 --> 00:09:48,821
No one knows how they actually got there.
319
00:09:48,821 --> 00:09:51,257
This big, massive stone formation. Yes.
320
00:09:51,290 --> 00:09:53,559
And this in this rock band is rock band
321
00:09:54,860 --> 00:09:55,995
documentary.
322
00:09:55,995 --> 00:09:58,497
Or they said, all right, here's
323
00:09:58,497 --> 00:09:58,931
what I'm going to do.
324
00:09:58,931 --> 00:10:00,299
We're going to come out
325
00:10:00,299 --> 00:10:02,101
and we're going to have Stonehenge.
326
00:10:02,101 --> 00:10:04,470
Is the stones come down on the stage
327
00:10:04,670 --> 00:10:05,504
behind us
328
00:10:05,504 --> 00:10:06,172
like this, you know,
329
00:10:06,172 --> 00:10:07,106
massive boulders
330
00:10:07,106 --> 00:10:08,040
that come back behind it
331
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,375
as we're rocking out,
332
00:10:09,375 --> 00:10:10,743
the music is playing,
333
00:10:10,743 --> 00:10:12,545
the smoke is going everywhere.
334
00:10:12,545 --> 00:10:13,446
And we'll have these stone
335
00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:14,847
edges come down from the ceiling
336
00:10:14,847 --> 00:10:15,881
and laying on the stage,
337
00:10:15,881 --> 00:10:18,184
these big, massive boulders. Right.
338
00:10:18,184 --> 00:10:19,051
All right. So
339
00:10:20,319 --> 00:10:20,653
they get
340
00:10:20,653 --> 00:10:22,321
on stage and they're playing
341
00:10:22,321 --> 00:10:23,923
and here comes the boulders.
342
00:10:23,923 --> 00:10:26,559
The problem is, whoever scaled this,
343
00:10:26,926 --> 00:10:29,629
they were like 30 inches high.
344
00:10:29,629 --> 00:10:34,133
All the rocks.
345
00:10:34,133 --> 00:10:35,935
So anyhow, that's what
346
00:10:35,935 --> 00:10:38,137
when I did my my big demo day
347
00:10:38,137 --> 00:10:39,739
that I put out all the fliers for that
348
00:10:39,739 --> 00:10:42,375
I hired this yo yo from, from Craigslist.
349
00:10:42,375 --> 00:10:43,776
This guy was had a
350
00:10:43,776 --> 00:10:44,610
he had a squirrel
351
00:10:44,610 --> 00:10:46,712
pelt on his on his stomach
352
00:10:47,413 --> 00:10:48,914
for on his belt.
353
00:10:48,914 --> 00:10:51,584
And, and he come thing, you know, in
354
00:10:51,584 --> 00:10:52,385
with the bagpipes,
355
00:10:52,385 --> 00:10:53,719
you know, me behind him.
356
00:10:53,719 --> 00:10:55,554
And then we have a spotlight on a table
357
00:10:55,554 --> 00:10:57,189
with three belt, three boxes of belts.
358
00:10:57,189 --> 00:11:00,760
There.
359
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,161
And the band was playing.
360
00:11:02,161 --> 00:11:04,530
It was a I don't want to say anything.
361
00:11:04,530 --> 00:11:05,731
So who came in for that?
362
00:11:05,731 --> 00:11:08,267
VP of Sales? Yeah. Yeah.
363
00:11:08,300 --> 00:11:10,469
I had the director come in.
364
00:11:10,803 --> 00:11:11,704
Sometimes you don't
365
00:11:11,704 --> 00:11:12,905
need to invite everybody.
366
00:11:12,905 --> 00:11:14,840
I learned out of that. Exactly.
367
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:15,908
I'll also tell you that.
368
00:11:15,908 --> 00:11:17,143
I'll tell you that my worst day.
369
00:11:17,143 --> 00:11:19,679
Sent out invitations and people answered.
370
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:20,913
Oh, yeah. Hey, good idea.
371
00:11:20,913 --> 00:11:22,682
Yeah, they would love to be there.
372
00:11:22,682 --> 00:11:23,883
Yeah, yeah.
373
00:11:23,883 --> 00:11:26,385
Oh, he's having bagpipes and everything
374
00:11:26,385 --> 00:11:28,020
and three boxes of sandpaper.
375
00:11:28,020 --> 00:11:29,355
Mm.
376
00:11:29,355 --> 00:11:32,191
And an empty warehouse. So.
377
00:11:33,492 --> 00:11:33,759
And the
378
00:11:33,759 --> 00:11:35,061
Craigslist guy wanted his money
379
00:11:35,061 --> 00:11:36,128
right away.
380
00:11:36,996 --> 00:11:38,564
I'm sure he's been burned before.
381
00:11:38,564 --> 00:11:40,066
Was he any good?
382
00:11:40,166 --> 00:11:41,701
He knew two songs.
383
00:11:41,701 --> 00:11:42,768
But when you're bagpiper,
384
00:11:42,768 --> 00:11:44,837
that's all you really have to know.
385
00:11:44,837 --> 00:11:47,473
But now.
386
00:11:47,473 --> 00:11:49,375
Hopefully one of them was Taps
387
00:11:49,375 --> 00:11:51,210
to play Taps for you
388
00:11:51,210 --> 00:11:53,546
over and over and over and over.
389
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,981
There's two reasons I should have been.
390
00:11:55,981 --> 00:11:56,615
My career
391
00:11:56,615 --> 00:11:57,950
shouldn't have lasted this long. A boner.
392
00:11:57,950 --> 00:11:58,751
That was one of them.
393
00:11:58,751 --> 00:11:59,452
And the second one
394
00:11:59,452 --> 00:12:02,354
was shortly before that when
395
00:12:02,354 --> 00:12:04,323
when I ran out of gas on the on the
396
00:12:04,323 --> 00:12:06,792
on the Bay Bridge with the with the the
397
00:12:07,126 --> 00:12:08,594
the most important person, the vice.
398
00:12:08,594 --> 00:12:09,695
President of the company.
399
00:12:09,695 --> 00:12:11,764
Yeah. I ran out of gas.
400
00:12:11,764 --> 00:12:13,466
Hey, you know,
401
00:12:13,466 --> 00:12:14,500
I love that story,
402
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:16,569
but you know what I love even better
403
00:12:16,569 --> 00:12:19,071
when he tells it. Yeah.
404
00:12:19,071 --> 00:12:21,373
I love when he tells that story.
405
00:12:21,707 --> 00:12:23,042
That was the most mortifying
406
00:12:23,042 --> 00:12:25,010
day of my entire life.
407
00:12:25,010 --> 00:12:26,879
The boy you talk to enough law
408
00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:29,281
guys, you get more stories.
409
00:12:29,281 --> 00:12:30,149
The other day,
410
00:12:31,383 --> 00:12:31,751
about two
411
00:12:31,751 --> 00:12:34,220
weeks ago, I was talking to Sprague Lane,
412
00:12:34,854 --> 00:12:36,055
you know, something was going on.
413
00:12:36,055 --> 00:12:38,157
So him and I were talking back and forth
414
00:12:38,157 --> 00:12:39,892
about whatever it was.
415
00:12:39,892 --> 00:12:41,994
I forget what it was about.
416
00:12:41,994 --> 00:12:43,262
But then
417
00:12:43,796 --> 00:12:46,065
we just started laughing about
418
00:12:46,065 --> 00:12:48,067
he was talking about some of the stories
419
00:12:48,067 --> 00:12:49,034
that he
420
00:12:49,368 --> 00:12:51,737
heard us tell, and he was kind of,
421
00:12:51,771 --> 00:12:53,606
you know, laughing about this and that.
422
00:12:53,606 --> 00:12:54,006
And
423
00:12:54,874 --> 00:12:57,443
he goes, Hey, I get a story for you.
424
00:12:57,810 --> 00:12:59,645
He goes, Tell this.
425
00:12:59,645 --> 00:13:00,513
He goes, If you want,
426
00:13:00,513 --> 00:13:02,915
you can just tell it as your story.
427
00:13:02,915 --> 00:13:03,783
Okay?
428
00:13:03,916 --> 00:13:06,385
And I was like, Yeah, I'm desperate, but,
429
00:13:06,385 --> 00:13:08,454
you know, let me hear the story first.
430
00:13:09,421 --> 00:13:12,525
He says, So me and the guys are working
431
00:13:12,992 --> 00:13:13,859
and we're on
432
00:13:13,859 --> 00:13:16,595
like our third job of the day.
433
00:13:16,595 --> 00:13:17,062
You know,
434
00:13:17,062 --> 00:13:18,864
we're on our third job of the day,
435
00:13:18,864 --> 00:13:20,766
and we have not.
436
00:13:20,766 --> 00:13:23,235
We had no time to eat at all.
437
00:13:24,036 --> 00:13:26,172
And he goes and we just had to keep
438
00:13:26,172 --> 00:13:27,673
chugging and chugging.
439
00:13:27,673 --> 00:13:28,541
He says, So I'm
440
00:13:28,541 --> 00:13:31,277
on this third job and I look over
441
00:13:31,610 --> 00:13:33,345
and I see this big, huge
442
00:13:33,345 --> 00:13:35,281
goblet of peanuts.
443
00:13:35,281 --> 00:13:37,783
And he's like, I love peanuts.
444
00:13:38,450 --> 00:13:41,353
So this one's over grabs a handful,
445
00:13:41,821 --> 00:13:43,622
and he's eating them, you know?
446
00:13:43,622 --> 00:13:44,924
And he goes, Oh, that's pretty good.
447
00:13:44,924 --> 00:13:46,392
And he goes back to work, their work,
448
00:13:46,392 --> 00:13:48,427
and he runs back in and grabs
449
00:13:48,427 --> 00:13:49,862
another handful,
450
00:13:49,862 --> 00:13:51,063
literally goes back,
451
00:13:51,063 --> 00:13:52,932
you know, like a third handful
452
00:13:52,932 --> 00:13:55,167
that only the old woman who owns a joint,
453
00:13:55,734 --> 00:13:58,170
she comes in and he goes, Ma'am,
454
00:13:58,170 --> 00:14:00,873
I just got to tell you, I'm really sorry.
455
00:14:00,873 --> 00:14:02,741
He said, I am starving
456
00:14:02,741 --> 00:14:04,677
and I've been eating your peanuts.
457
00:14:04,677 --> 00:14:07,112
I'll, you know, replace some whatever.
458
00:14:07,479 --> 00:14:08,881
And she goes,
459
00:14:08,881 --> 00:14:11,217
Oh, no, no, no, I don't eat those.
460
00:14:11,217 --> 00:14:12,885
I just suck all the chocolate off
461
00:14:12,885 --> 00:14:14,820
and then throw it on to that. Gobble it.
462
00:14:14,820 --> 00:14:15,788
Oh, dear God.
463
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:17,923
Oh, my
464
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:21,560
head.
465
00:14:23,429 --> 00:14:24,964
Oh.
466
00:14:25,264 --> 00:14:25,631
Really?
467
00:14:25,631 --> 00:14:29,768
I lost it like that.
468
00:14:29,768 --> 00:14:32,071
And then he's talking again.
469
00:14:33,472 --> 00:14:35,941
So I'm cracking up over that one
470
00:14:36,942 --> 00:14:39,645
and he starts telling another story where
471
00:14:39,645 --> 00:14:42,147
there's not even a customer of his
472
00:14:42,848 --> 00:14:45,451
is calling him and asking
473
00:14:45,451 --> 00:14:48,420
a question after question after question
474
00:14:49,588 --> 00:14:52,224
and it's not even his customer.
475
00:14:52,224 --> 00:14:54,927
So finally he goes, Ma'am,
476
00:14:54,927 --> 00:14:57,296
you must have me mistaken for library.
477
00:14:57,296 --> 00:15:00,199
I'm a bookstore.
478
00:15:00,199 --> 00:15:02,101
And I said, Well.
479
00:15:02,101 --> 00:15:06,405
Is that one I might steal from that?
480
00:15:06,572 --> 00:15:07,806
That's pretty good.
481
00:15:07,806 --> 00:15:09,041
I like that. Yeah.
482
00:15:09,041 --> 00:15:10,843
Because how many times do we do
483
00:15:10,843 --> 00:15:11,644
that, right? Yeah.
484
00:15:11,644 --> 00:15:13,779
How many times do people write?
485
00:15:13,779 --> 00:15:14,980
And he said,
486
00:15:14,980 --> 00:15:17,883
that is just that was just classic.
487
00:15:17,883 --> 00:15:19,952
Sprague Ma'am. Yeah.
488
00:15:19,952 --> 00:15:21,353
I'm not the library.
489
00:15:21,353 --> 00:15:24,957
I'm the bookstore that I love.
490
00:15:24,957 --> 00:15:26,492
They gave a shout out to Sprague
491
00:15:26,492 --> 00:15:30,629
on that one.
492
00:15:30,629 --> 00:15:31,297
You remind me.
493
00:15:31,297 --> 00:15:31,830
I was at a
494
00:15:31,830 --> 00:15:33,232
I was at a football game one time,
495
00:15:33,232 --> 00:15:34,566
and there was a really old lady
496
00:15:34,566 --> 00:15:36,302
sitting next to me on my right.
497
00:15:36,302 --> 00:15:37,202
And I was a
498
00:15:38,137 --> 00:15:38,938
I was
499
00:15:40,272 --> 00:15:41,607
I had a day Diet Pepsi.
500
00:15:41,607 --> 00:15:43,976
I put down on the side right in a bottle.
501
00:15:44,677 --> 00:15:45,811
And, you know,
502
00:15:45,811 --> 00:15:46,779
you watch the game
503
00:15:46,779 --> 00:15:47,379
where everyone's
504
00:15:47,379 --> 00:15:49,348
wild to take a drink out of whatever.
505
00:15:49,348 --> 00:15:50,349
And then
506
00:15:51,750 --> 00:15:53,986
I then realized that
507
00:15:53,986 --> 00:15:55,020
I seen her reach down there
508
00:15:55,020 --> 00:15:56,255
and take a drink of it.
509
00:15:56,255 --> 00:15:57,790
And I don't know how she doing.
510
00:15:57,790 --> 00:15:58,924
She, you know,
511
00:15:58,924 --> 00:15:59,591
then I realized
512
00:15:59,591 --> 00:16:00,993
mine was on the other side.
513
00:16:00,993 --> 00:16:03,028
I was drinking hers the whole time.
514
00:16:03,028 --> 00:16:04,263
She got a big bag of popcorn
515
00:16:04,263 --> 00:16:05,331
in front of her.
516
00:16:05,831 --> 00:16:06,865
It's like 80 years old.
517
00:16:06,865 --> 00:16:09,468
I don't know her, though.
518
00:16:09,935 --> 00:16:12,338
Oh, my. Gosh.
519
00:16:12,338 --> 00:16:15,741
Yeah.
520
00:16:15,741 --> 00:16:18,711
Yeah. All right. Uh.
521
00:16:19,278 --> 00:16:20,312
You know, one more thing
522
00:16:20,312 --> 00:16:23,048
I want to talk about.
523
00:16:23,048 --> 00:16:24,049
We did.
524
00:16:24,049 --> 00:16:25,184
We did a school, a two day
525
00:16:25,184 --> 00:16:27,152
school up in Toronto last week.
526
00:16:27,152 --> 00:16:30,222
It was a BCC class and
527
00:16:32,491 --> 00:16:33,258
I've noticed
528
00:16:33,258 --> 00:16:35,294
that at the three day schools,
529
00:16:35,594 --> 00:16:38,797
I get a lot of people that I've seen from
530
00:16:38,797 --> 00:16:42,001
five or six years ago.
531
00:16:42,001 --> 00:16:42,901
And, you know,
532
00:16:42,901 --> 00:16:44,670
I used to think to myself, man,
533
00:16:44,670 --> 00:16:46,138
and they were, you know,
534
00:16:46,138 --> 00:16:48,874
five years ago, I just saw it.
535
00:16:48,874 --> 00:16:50,542
But I was thinking of everything
536
00:16:50,542 --> 00:16:52,111
that we're doing in the schools now
537
00:16:52,111 --> 00:16:53,212
compared to what we were doing
538
00:16:53,212 --> 00:16:54,146
five years ago.
539
00:16:54,146 --> 00:16:57,583
And think of all of the new stuff.
540
00:16:59,218 --> 00:16:59,985
So
541
00:17:00,619 --> 00:17:02,821
you know, just when you think, oh, it's,
542
00:17:02,821 --> 00:17:03,088
you know,
543
00:17:03,088 --> 00:17:03,822
the bone, a three day
544
00:17:03,822 --> 00:17:05,090
school might not be as fresh
545
00:17:05,090 --> 00:17:06,592
as it used to be.
546
00:17:06,859 --> 00:17:07,693
No,
547
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,362
I literally said the D the other day,
548
00:17:10,362 --> 00:17:11,230
I go, man,
549
00:17:11,230 --> 00:17:14,333
we have so many new things going on
550
00:17:14,333 --> 00:17:16,301
between diamond plates and flow
551
00:17:16,301 --> 00:17:17,002
and red out
552
00:17:17,002 --> 00:17:20,906
and steel plates and wire brushing and,
553
00:17:20,906 --> 00:17:22,241
you know, the
554
00:17:22,241 --> 00:17:23,042
the oil,
555
00:17:23,042 --> 00:17:24,243
the mixing of the stains
556
00:17:24,243 --> 00:17:25,644
and the oils and the colors
557
00:17:25,644 --> 00:17:27,513
and the glaze system.
558
00:17:27,513 --> 00:17:29,581
I said, I need that fourth day back.
559
00:17:29,982 --> 00:17:31,950
We need another day.
560
00:17:31,950 --> 00:17:34,553
So now just when you think, oh, things
561
00:17:34,553 --> 00:17:36,488
might be getting stale over bone it.
562
00:17:36,488 --> 00:17:38,724
No, no way.
563
00:17:39,291 --> 00:17:41,126
I mean we are
564
00:17:41,126 --> 00:17:42,728
we spend so much time
565
00:17:42,728 --> 00:17:44,630
now doing the new stuff.
566
00:17:44,630 --> 00:17:46,865
It's like we're really
567
00:17:46,865 --> 00:17:48,634
I could really use another day
568
00:17:48,634 --> 00:17:49,635
on these glasses
569
00:17:49,635 --> 00:17:52,004
because we are just flying.
570
00:17:52,037 --> 00:17:52,771
Now.
571
00:17:53,205 --> 00:17:54,940
You you mentioned Spring Lee
572
00:17:54,940 --> 00:17:56,642
and I was talking to him this morning
573
00:17:56,642 --> 00:17:59,178
and about the power drive and
574
00:18:00,179 --> 00:18:00,579
isn't it
575
00:18:00,579 --> 00:18:02,081
funny that,
576
00:18:02,081 --> 00:18:02,381
you know,
577
00:18:02,381 --> 00:18:02,881
he was talking
578
00:18:02,881 --> 00:18:03,816
about his experience with it
579
00:18:03,816 --> 00:18:04,349
now, whatever.
580
00:18:04,349 --> 00:18:05,684
And I talked about my brothers and my,
581
00:18:05,684 --> 00:18:06,351
you know, my brother
582
00:18:06,351 --> 00:18:09,721
Doug said, you know, and
583
00:18:09,721 --> 00:18:12,291
I have to be standing now 36 years or
584
00:18:12,291 --> 00:18:15,360
so or maybe more now in the industry.
585
00:18:16,095 --> 00:18:17,830
It's a lot of experience.
586
00:18:17,830 --> 00:18:18,430
You know.
587
00:18:18,430 --> 00:18:21,266
And that goes you know what, Wayne?
588
00:18:21,266 --> 00:18:22,067
I don't know how we
589
00:18:22,067 --> 00:18:23,102
we go back to sanding floors
590
00:18:23,102 --> 00:18:23,535
any other way
591
00:18:23,535 --> 00:18:25,170
without the power drive now.
592
00:18:25,170 --> 00:18:27,272
And it's such a part of our system now,
593
00:18:27,272 --> 00:18:27,539
who knows?
594
00:18:27,539 --> 00:18:29,842
I would even hate to even think about it.
595
00:18:29,842 --> 00:18:30,576
You know,
596
00:18:30,809 --> 00:18:32,611
and I've said it before, Doug
597
00:18:32,611 --> 00:18:33,579
hated the power drive
598
00:18:33,579 --> 00:18:34,947
until we got the wait for it.
599
00:18:34,947 --> 00:18:36,048
Once we got the wait for it.
600
00:18:36,048 --> 00:18:39,017
And then then it's every job now.
601
00:18:39,017 --> 00:18:40,152
And I was talking to Sprigg.
602
00:18:41,220 --> 00:18:41,820
That.
603
00:18:41,820 --> 00:18:42,054
You know,
604
00:18:42,054 --> 00:18:42,754
you're going to get guys
605
00:18:42,754 --> 00:18:43,822
that come in the trade now
606
00:18:43,822 --> 00:18:44,656
in the next,
607
00:18:44,656 --> 00:18:46,091
you know, last five years
608
00:18:46,091 --> 00:18:47,826
or so that that's part of their life.
609
00:18:47,826 --> 00:18:49,928
So much that,
610
00:18:49,928 --> 00:18:50,829
you know, for us
611
00:18:50,829 --> 00:18:51,697
I remember back in the day,
612
00:18:51,697 --> 00:18:52,931
if you had a hallway that was like
613
00:18:52,931 --> 00:18:53,799
four feet
614
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:55,901
wide by 40 feet long
615
00:18:55,901 --> 00:18:57,402
going the wrong direction,
616
00:18:57,402 --> 00:19:00,906
how much effort went into the meticulous
617
00:19:00,906 --> 00:19:02,741
sanding techniques with the edger
618
00:19:02,741 --> 00:19:04,443
and clocking the edger and,
619
00:19:04,443 --> 00:19:05,878
you know, all these different things
620
00:19:05,878 --> 00:19:06,411
you had to do
621
00:19:06,411 --> 00:19:07,513
and then you put the first coat
622
00:19:07,513 --> 00:19:08,247
on, you had to look.
623
00:19:08,247 --> 00:19:09,481
It makes you hope it's dead flat.
624
00:19:09,481 --> 00:19:11,416
You don't have anything going on.
625
00:19:11,416 --> 00:19:12,084
You'll have a guy
626
00:19:12,084 --> 00:19:13,252
that's been in the trade for,
627
00:19:13,252 --> 00:19:13,519
you know,
628
00:19:13,519 --> 00:19:15,354
just no time at all
629
00:19:15,354 --> 00:19:17,589
and turning out perfect flaws.
630
00:19:17,589 --> 00:19:19,124
Those guys will never appreciate
631
00:19:19,124 --> 00:19:21,393
old guys like us, will they?
632
00:19:21,393 --> 00:19:22,761
They'll never understand
633
00:19:23,762 --> 00:19:26,365
that how hard that was for us.
634
00:19:26,398 --> 00:19:26,899
You know what I mean?
635
00:19:26,899 --> 00:19:28,467
When we didn't have that tool.
636
00:19:28,467 --> 00:19:29,401
I mean, really,
637
00:19:29,401 --> 00:19:31,937
if you think about it, that was like
638
00:19:31,937 --> 00:19:33,438
that was that was it
639
00:19:33,438 --> 00:19:35,307
the skill set to be able to do that
640
00:19:35,307 --> 00:19:37,042
and have no issues whatsoever?
641
00:19:37,042 --> 00:19:39,178
And dead flat, no edge marks
642
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:43,015
perfectly, just a perfectly sanded
643
00:19:43,115 --> 00:19:44,216
room.
644
00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:46,552
Now these guys are going to come in
645
00:19:46,552 --> 00:19:48,120
and not have any of that baggage
646
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:50,489
or even that experience from from what
647
00:19:50,489 --> 00:19:51,190
we had to go through.
648
00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:52,324
You realize that.
649
00:19:52,324 --> 00:19:54,459
That hallway you just mentioned was
650
00:19:55,194 --> 00:19:57,496
was 2 hours of hard plating for me.
651
00:19:57,763 --> 00:19:59,798
Yeah. That's sort of what that was.
652
00:19:59,865 --> 00:20:02,668
It was 2 hours of just
653
00:20:02,668 --> 00:20:04,803
and the old fashioned hard play with.
654
00:20:04,870 --> 00:20:07,306
A. 16 inch bolt on paper.
655
00:20:07,306 --> 00:20:09,474
Yeah. Bolted on to the steel plate.
656
00:20:10,876 --> 00:20:12,110
Now I know
657
00:20:12,110 --> 00:20:15,047
now with the power drive it's like,
658
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,516
yeah, now we sound like old crotchety
659
00:20:17,516 --> 00:20:17,950
old man.
660
00:20:17,950 --> 00:20:19,551
Oh, you kids.
661
00:20:19,551 --> 00:20:20,252
Yeah.
662
00:20:20,352 --> 00:20:22,221
You kids don't know how lucky I am.
663
00:20:22,221 --> 00:20:24,122
And we used to have to cut our own
664
00:20:24,122 --> 00:20:25,524
radiator paper.
665
00:20:25,524 --> 00:20:28,093
Mm.
666
00:20:28,093 --> 00:20:28,827
Yeah.
667
00:20:29,228 --> 00:20:30,996
So anyhow, now things have changed.
668
00:20:30,996 --> 00:20:33,565
So listen also I just want to mention too
669
00:20:33,565 --> 00:20:34,833
that we have a podcast
670
00:20:34,833 --> 00:20:36,768
coming up after this one
671
00:20:36,768 --> 00:20:37,803
that I think
672
00:20:37,803 --> 00:20:40,339
is going to be really good podcast.
673
00:20:40,339 --> 00:20:42,874
Adam Busy from Floors by the shore
674
00:20:43,508 --> 00:20:44,810
out in New Jersey.
675
00:20:44,810 --> 00:20:47,346
I wrote an article for for the
676
00:20:47,813 --> 00:20:49,514
I think it's good for Business magazine.
677
00:20:49,514 --> 00:20:49,982
I've seen it
678
00:20:49,982 --> 00:20:52,150
and I've seen I've had on Facebook
679
00:20:52,150 --> 00:20:53,485
and whatever. I've read it twice.
680
00:20:53,485 --> 00:20:54,586
I sent it out to my team.
681
00:20:54,586 --> 00:20:58,056
In fact, it's a great article on moisture
682
00:20:58,624 --> 00:20:59,791
and well thought out
683
00:20:59,791 --> 00:21:01,393
and I think one of the best articles
684
00:21:01,393 --> 00:21:02,160
I've ever seen.
685
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:03,528
He went into such great detail
686
00:21:03,528 --> 00:21:04,463
and with this
687
00:21:04,696 --> 00:21:05,731
with this article, he's
688
00:21:05,731 --> 00:21:07,299
very well-respected. And,
689
00:21:08,433 --> 00:21:09,067
you know, I
690
00:21:09,067 --> 00:21:09,835
twisted his arm
691
00:21:09,835 --> 00:21:10,902
and he said he's going to he'll
692
00:21:10,902 --> 00:21:12,838
come on the podcast with us.
693
00:21:12,838 --> 00:21:14,673
And so I look forward to having that.
694
00:21:14,673 --> 00:21:16,275
That's going to be next week
695
00:21:16,275 --> 00:21:18,677
and having him on will be a real treat,
696
00:21:18,677 --> 00:21:19,678
a great guy,
697
00:21:19,678 --> 00:21:22,180
great craftsman, very passionate.
698
00:21:22,180 --> 00:21:23,115
And so there's a lot of things
699
00:21:23,115 --> 00:21:24,216
we can talk to him about that.
700
00:21:24,216 --> 00:21:24,816
But I really want to
701
00:21:24,816 --> 00:21:26,718
talk about that article he wrote.
702
00:21:26,718 --> 00:21:27,853
I have two things that I thought
703
00:21:27,853 --> 00:21:29,955
were very interesting
704
00:21:30,088 --> 00:21:31,590
that I was going to see in that podcast,
705
00:21:31,590 --> 00:21:33,191
and I forgot to
706
00:21:33,191 --> 00:21:33,825
I saw this
707
00:21:33,825 --> 00:21:35,294
the other day where they brought
708
00:21:35,294 --> 00:21:37,629
they brought ten women in
709
00:21:38,230 --> 00:21:39,031
and
710
00:21:40,832 --> 00:21:42,834
they they said, okay, we're going to make
711
00:21:42,901 --> 00:21:44,002
we're going to do the experiment.
712
00:21:44,002 --> 00:21:45,504
We're going to make you up and put it
713
00:21:45,504 --> 00:21:46,605
with the makeup artist.
714
00:21:46,605 --> 00:21:48,807
You're going to put a scar on your face
715
00:21:48,807 --> 00:21:50,442
and like a disfigurement on your face.
716
00:21:50,442 --> 00:21:50,876
Okay?
717
00:21:52,010 --> 00:21:52,978
And
718
00:21:54,980 --> 00:21:56,848
that when they got done,
719
00:21:56,848 --> 00:21:57,683
then they're going to say, well,
720
00:21:57,683 --> 00:21:58,684
then we want you to go interview
721
00:21:58,684 --> 00:22:00,218
for jobs and see, see,
722
00:22:00,218 --> 00:22:01,853
see if you feel like you're
723
00:22:01,853 --> 00:22:02,854
being discriminated against
724
00:22:02,854 --> 00:22:03,922
because of the
725
00:22:03,922 --> 00:22:06,391
because of the scar on your face or
726
00:22:07,426 --> 00:22:09,294
what have you. So they said, okay.
727
00:22:09,294 --> 00:22:10,262
So they brought in these
728
00:22:10,262 --> 00:22:11,463
these makeup artists,
729
00:22:11,463 --> 00:22:12,297
you know, like Hollywood
730
00:22:12,297 --> 00:22:13,098
type makeup artists.
731
00:22:13,098 --> 00:22:14,166
And they would do each one of them
732
00:22:14,166 --> 00:22:15,400
a different type of disfigurement
733
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,002
on their face or a scar or whatever.
734
00:22:17,002 --> 00:22:18,170
And they would show the ladies,
735
00:22:18,170 --> 00:22:19,171
they say, okay,
736
00:22:19,171 --> 00:22:20,706
this is what it looks like.
737
00:22:20,706 --> 00:22:23,108
And they go, okay, so
738
00:22:23,475 --> 00:22:24,509
then they go, Well,
739
00:22:24,509 --> 00:22:25,677
let's do one more touch up
740
00:22:25,677 --> 00:22:26,345
before you're done.
741
00:22:26,345 --> 00:22:28,380
So the styling is little bit more.
742
00:22:28,380 --> 00:22:29,581
What they didn't tell them is
743
00:22:29,581 --> 00:22:30,148
what they did is
744
00:22:30,148 --> 00:22:32,150
they removed all that makeup now.
745
00:22:32,617 --> 00:22:34,052
Okay.
746
00:22:34,052 --> 00:22:35,520
So from there
747
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:36,888
they brought them in to be in it
748
00:22:36,888 --> 00:22:39,224
to to interview for these jobs.
749
00:22:39,224 --> 00:22:39,925
And then they got done.
750
00:22:39,925 --> 00:22:41,927
They said, how was the experience?
751
00:22:41,927 --> 00:22:43,362
What did you you know, what did you
752
00:22:43,362 --> 00:22:44,963
how did you feel doing it?
753
00:22:44,963 --> 00:22:46,531
And it was amazing
754
00:22:46,531 --> 00:22:47,399
how many them came back
755
00:22:47,399 --> 00:22:48,233
and said, I could tell
756
00:22:48,233 --> 00:22:50,268
I wasn't going to get the job
757
00:22:50,268 --> 00:22:52,337
because the way they looked at me
758
00:22:52,337 --> 00:22:53,638
and because of
759
00:22:53,638 --> 00:22:54,840
because my disfigurement,
760
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:55,474
I could tell
761
00:22:55,474 --> 00:22:57,142
already that they dismissed me
762
00:22:57,142 --> 00:22:59,211
just by the way they were talking to me
763
00:22:59,211 --> 00:23:00,379
because they were bleep.
764
00:23:00,379 --> 00:23:01,680
Isn't that interesting?
765
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,350
Wow, that's sad.
766
00:23:06,151 --> 00:23:08,286
What do you mean it's sad? It's great.
767
00:23:09,488 --> 00:23:10,021
It's not.
768
00:23:10,021 --> 00:23:10,922
What? Great.
769
00:23:10,922 --> 00:23:16,294
What does that say about people?
770
00:23:16,294 --> 00:23:17,662
It's all in your head.
771
00:23:17,662 --> 00:23:19,264
It's all in your head.
772
00:23:19,364 --> 00:23:19,598
Yeah.
773
00:23:19,598 --> 00:23:20,932
So these things that you worry about
774
00:23:20,932 --> 00:23:22,067
and you carry around with you
775
00:23:22,067 --> 00:23:24,202
that you think people see or whatever.
776
00:23:24,536 --> 00:23:25,137
Yeah.
777
00:23:26,371 --> 00:23:26,671
Oh.
778
00:23:26,872 --> 00:23:28,440
I don't have any of that.
779
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:29,808
You don't know.
780
00:23:29,808 --> 00:23:31,877
You're so you're. Lucky, man.
781
00:23:31,877 --> 00:23:36,882
You're born in a good start.
782
00:23:36,882 --> 00:23:40,118
The other thing is I also
783
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:42,621
was listening to this thing
784
00:23:42,621 --> 00:23:43,622
I thought was very interesting
785
00:23:43,622 --> 00:23:44,589
too, is why dumb
786
00:23:44,589 --> 00:23:49,995
people think they're actually smart.
787
00:23:49,995 --> 00:23:52,464
And I think this is pretty fascinating.
788
00:23:53,298 --> 00:23:54,866
Like every year we talk to like
789
00:23:54,866 --> 00:23:55,667
sometimes you see
790
00:23:55,667 --> 00:23:58,970
like a homeowner, for instance,
791
00:23:58,970 --> 00:24:01,406
they're like they're adamant
792
00:24:01,406 --> 00:24:02,607
about a certain situation
793
00:24:02,607 --> 00:24:03,575
on a floor, right?
794
00:24:03,575 --> 00:24:06,711
They know boom, with 100% certainty.
795
00:24:06,912 --> 00:24:08,180
Such a such on floor. Right.
796
00:24:09,314 --> 00:24:12,384
The reason that happens is
797
00:24:12,384 --> 00:24:13,151
like
798
00:24:16,321 --> 00:24:17,055
if you don't know
799
00:24:17,055 --> 00:24:17,956
a lot
800
00:24:18,223 --> 00:24:19,224
about something,
801
00:24:19,224 --> 00:24:20,559
you don't think there's a lot to know
802
00:24:20,559 --> 00:24:21,793
about something sometimes.
803
00:24:21,793 --> 00:24:22,861
You know what I mean?
804
00:24:23,228 --> 00:24:24,463
You listening to me?
805
00:24:24,463 --> 00:24:25,630
Are you watching your phone?
806
00:24:25,630 --> 00:24:26,431
What do you like?
807
00:24:26,431 --> 00:24:27,365
What do you know?
808
00:24:27,365 --> 00:24:28,834
Just going through.
809
00:24:28,834 --> 00:24:30,669
Whenever I get a podcast idea,
810
00:24:30,669 --> 00:24:31,970
I put it in my notes.
811
00:24:31,970 --> 00:24:34,206
So I'm listening to you
812
00:24:34,206 --> 00:24:35,240
and scrolling through.
813
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,808
I would appreciate
814
00:24:36,808 --> 00:24:38,977
my contact in a little, little, little.
815
00:24:39,411 --> 00:24:39,744
Okay.
816
00:24:39,744 --> 00:24:40,645
Every once in a while
817
00:24:40,645 --> 00:24:42,147
I've got connection here.
818
00:24:42,147 --> 00:24:42,547
Yeah.
819
00:24:42,547 --> 00:24:43,915
Mm hmm.
820
00:24:43,915 --> 00:24:46,418
There you go. So.
821
00:24:46,618 --> 00:24:47,118
Yeah, I don't.
822
00:24:47,118 --> 00:24:49,321
Yes, yeah.
823
00:24:49,788 --> 00:24:52,290
They don't realize what they don't know.
824
00:24:52,290 --> 00:24:54,459
For instance, like I
825
00:24:54,459 --> 00:24:56,228
the more you start to learn about it,
826
00:24:56,228 --> 00:24:58,797
the less you realize
827
00:24:58,930 --> 00:25:00,699
you don't know much at all.
828
00:25:00,699 --> 00:25:02,901
There's so much more you don't even know.
829
00:25:02,901 --> 00:25:04,069
The more you become an expert
830
00:25:04,069 --> 00:25:06,571
at something, the more you realize
831
00:25:07,305 --> 00:25:08,273
that there is so much more
832
00:25:08,273 --> 00:25:09,674
that you don't even know.
833
00:25:09,674 --> 00:25:11,409
You know? You know I'm getting that.
834
00:25:11,409 --> 00:25:12,811
A. Sick basketball for instance.
835
00:25:12,811 --> 00:25:15,080
Like, I like watching basketball.
836
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,516
And and I'll tell you that, yeah,
837
00:25:17,549 --> 00:25:18,517
I know the game of basketball.
838
00:25:18,517 --> 00:25:20,552
I know I watch basketball all the time.
839
00:25:20,552 --> 00:25:22,053
So but if I was to tell someone, yeah,
840
00:25:22,053 --> 00:25:23,221
absolutely I do. I know.
841
00:25:23,221 --> 00:25:24,723
I know basketball.
842
00:25:24,723 --> 00:25:26,324
I know a lot about basketball.
843
00:25:26,324 --> 00:25:27,192
Well.
844
00:25:27,192 --> 00:25:29,394
If I studied basketball, like
845
00:25:30,362 --> 00:25:32,097
feet positioning, you know what I mean?
846
00:25:32,097 --> 00:25:33,164
And handshaking
847
00:25:33,164 --> 00:25:35,700
and the strategies and different defenses
848
00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:36,301
and all that, I'd
849
00:25:36,301 --> 00:25:37,302
really I'd really know that
850
00:25:37,302 --> 00:25:37,802
I don't know
851
00:25:37,802 --> 00:25:40,038
much about basketball at all.
852
00:25:40,338 --> 00:25:42,040
So I think that's why you stupid people
853
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,975
sometimes think they're smart.
854
00:25:43,975 --> 00:25:44,242
They
855
00:25:44,543 --> 00:25:46,044
they just don't have any idea
856
00:25:46,044 --> 00:25:48,213
how much they don't know.
857
00:25:48,213 --> 00:25:50,248
And they don't have the wherewithal
858
00:25:50,248 --> 00:25:52,951
to understand that.
859
00:25:52,951 --> 00:25:54,719
I sometimes
860
00:25:55,220 --> 00:25:56,988
I sometimes
861
00:25:56,988 --> 00:26:00,559
I'm jealous of stupid people.
862
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:01,826
How so?
863
00:26:03,028 --> 00:26:03,995
Their life must be.
864
00:26:03,995 --> 00:26:06,364
And then I see your life.
865
00:26:06,498 --> 00:26:07,599
Know their life.
866
00:26:07,599 --> 00:26:08,033
They're okay.
867
00:26:08,033 --> 00:26:10,335
Their life must be so much easier.
868
00:26:10,902 --> 00:26:13,104
You know what I mean? It is.
869
00:26:13,104 --> 00:26:14,573
It's very it's simple.
870
00:26:14,573 --> 00:26:16,708
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, absolutely.
871
00:26:17,008 --> 00:26:18,677
And I would think that that would be
872
00:26:18,677 --> 00:26:19,611
sometimes I think there's
873
00:26:19,611 --> 00:26:21,246
something to be said for that.
874
00:26:21,246 --> 00:26:22,914
Yeah, absolutely.
875
00:26:22,914 --> 00:26:24,449
I look at my cat sometimes
876
00:26:26,384 --> 00:26:26,651
and I
877
00:26:26,651 --> 00:26:27,519
think their life
878
00:26:27,519 --> 00:26:28,620
is so much easier than mine
879
00:26:28,620 --> 00:26:29,321
that they don't even know
880
00:26:29,321 --> 00:26:30,655
what a mortgage is.
881
00:26:30,655 --> 00:26:31,856
They don't know what they don't know
882
00:26:31,856 --> 00:26:34,025
that there's going to be a storm coming.
883
00:26:34,025 --> 00:26:34,526
You know what I mean?
884
00:26:34,526 --> 00:26:35,727
They don't know that there's a tornado
885
00:26:35,727 --> 00:26:36,861
watch right now.
886
00:26:36,861 --> 00:26:37,596
That's what you think
887
00:26:37,596 --> 00:26:39,331
of when you see your cat.
888
00:26:39,331 --> 00:26:40,198
Well, that's one of the things
889
00:26:40,198 --> 00:26:41,499
I think of sometimes.
890
00:26:41,499 --> 00:26:42,133
You know,
891
00:26:42,133 --> 00:26:44,102
when you were just saying you don't know
892
00:26:44,102 --> 00:26:48,306
squat about basketball,
893
00:26:48,306 --> 00:26:51,076
my grandsons are playing baseball now
894
00:26:52,978 --> 00:26:54,279
and now starting to get
895
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:55,347
a little competitive.
896
00:26:55,347 --> 00:26:56,414
They're playing real games
897
00:26:56,414 --> 00:26:57,916
or other people.
898
00:26:59,017 --> 00:27:01,553
So I've been trying to you know,
899
00:27:01,553 --> 00:27:03,955
I've I've played baseball all my life, so
900
00:27:04,689 --> 00:27:07,792
I think I can throw a ball,
901
00:27:07,792 --> 00:27:09,628
swing a bat pretty good.
902
00:27:09,628 --> 00:27:09,961
Right.
903
00:27:11,763 --> 00:27:15,233
And, you know, I noticed it.
904
00:27:15,667 --> 00:27:18,303
Other kids were doing it a lot different.
905
00:27:18,303 --> 00:27:20,372
And then I held a bat
906
00:27:21,873 --> 00:27:23,375
and these kids were holding
907
00:27:23,375 --> 00:27:25,410
it completely different,
908
00:27:25,410 --> 00:27:27,379
were really hitting the ball.
909
00:27:27,379 --> 00:27:28,146
Now
910
00:27:28,346 --> 00:27:28,780
my poor
911
00:27:28,780 --> 00:27:30,548
grandson is holding the bat
912
00:27:30,548 --> 00:27:32,717
the way I taught him.
913
00:27:32,917 --> 00:27:35,620
Chi is DMC ski style from
914
00:27:35,620 --> 00:27:39,457
the early 1970s.
915
00:27:39,457 --> 00:27:41,493
So I started looking at some stuff online
916
00:27:42,927 --> 00:27:44,162
how to throw a ball,
917
00:27:44,162 --> 00:27:46,231
how to swing a bat stance,
918
00:27:46,531 --> 00:27:47,832
all that stuff.
919
00:27:47,832 --> 00:27:49,034
And I couldn't agree
920
00:27:49,034 --> 00:27:50,535
more with what you were just saying.
921
00:27:50,535 --> 00:27:51,136
Like
922
00:27:51,903 --> 00:27:55,540
you don't know nothing about basketball.
923
00:27:55,573 --> 00:27:57,642
Now that I've been watching these videos
924
00:27:58,410 --> 00:28:00,812
and I can see huge improvements,
925
00:28:01,613 --> 00:28:03,748
not only in their swing, in my swing too,
926
00:28:04,315 --> 00:28:06,384
but it's completely different.
927
00:28:06,384 --> 00:28:08,353
And like,
928
00:28:08,353 --> 00:28:09,654
I couldn't believe you were just saying
929
00:28:09,654 --> 00:28:11,790
that about basketball, how you thought,
930
00:28:11,990 --> 00:28:12,991
how you knew the game
931
00:28:12,991 --> 00:28:15,026
until you really started to
932
00:28:15,026 --> 00:28:15,960
figure the game out.
933
00:28:17,495 --> 00:28:18,329
No, I keep you have
934
00:28:18,329 --> 00:28:20,732
this recurring nightmare about it
935
00:28:21,433 --> 00:28:24,769
that and I had the few while back to go
936
00:28:24,769 --> 00:28:27,305
that Julie left me. Okay.
937
00:28:27,305 --> 00:28:29,841
So Julie leaves me with divorce.
938
00:28:29,841 --> 00:28:32,777
I marry some I marry some redheaded
939
00:28:33,011 --> 00:28:36,247
chick in back in the country
940
00:28:36,981 --> 00:28:38,683
with three redheaded stepchild,
941
00:28:38,683 --> 00:28:41,753
step stepkids. Okay.
942
00:28:41,753 --> 00:28:44,422
And we live in a trailer
943
00:28:44,422 --> 00:28:47,192
and it's broken down trailer.
944
00:28:47,192 --> 00:28:48,626
And here's the here's here's
945
00:28:48,626 --> 00:28:50,295
a nightmare that keeps
946
00:28:51,329 --> 00:28:53,131
that keeps coming up.
947
00:28:53,131 --> 00:28:54,666
God knows where you're going with this.
948
00:28:54,666 --> 00:28:56,267
She screams at me.
949
00:28:56,267 --> 00:29:04,509
Where did all that California money go?
950
00:29:04,509 --> 00:29:05,844
I've probably had it three
951
00:29:05,844 --> 00:29:07,512
or four times now.
952
00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:10,749
Where did all that California money go.
953
00:29:10,749 --> 00:29:11,616
Or that.
954
00:29:11,616 --> 00:29:13,318
This dream coming from?
955
00:29:13,318 --> 00:29:14,419
Well, you said teaching
956
00:29:14,419 --> 00:29:15,854
when you said teaching your grandkids
957
00:29:15,854 --> 00:29:16,888
about that,
958
00:29:16,888 --> 00:29:18,423
hitting a ball with a baseball.
959
00:29:18,423 --> 00:29:21,659
I was thinking, if they're my step kids,
960
00:29:22,427 --> 00:29:23,762
there's less pressure on teaching them.
961
00:29:24,896 --> 00:29:26,331
They hit the ball.
962
00:29:27,098 --> 00:29:27,899
Okay.
963
00:29:27,899 --> 00:29:29,100
You know what I mean?
964
00:29:29,100 --> 00:29:32,337
Yeah.
965
00:29:32,337 --> 00:29:33,671
Oh, I.
966
00:29:33,671 --> 00:29:35,373
I got one for you.
967
00:29:35,373 --> 00:29:37,842
I was teaching up in Canada this week.
968
00:29:38,309 --> 00:29:39,377
Oh, my God.
969
00:29:39,377 --> 00:29:40,411
Please don't.
970
00:29:40,411 --> 00:29:42,013
Oh, wait a minute.
971
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,415
So a guy in the class
972
00:29:44,415 --> 00:29:46,651
says to me, so
973
00:29:47,852 --> 00:29:50,622
I was a coming through the border
974
00:29:50,922 --> 00:29:53,158
and and I said, Oh, man,
975
00:29:53,158 --> 00:29:55,860
they asked a whole new set of questions.
976
00:29:55,860 --> 00:29:58,530
I go, I'm coming over the border for
977
00:29:58,530 --> 00:30:00,365
I don't know how long.
978
00:30:00,365 --> 00:30:01,833
And I said, usually it's a
979
00:30:01,833 --> 00:30:03,935
do you have any fruit at this time?
980
00:30:03,935 --> 00:30:04,202
They said,
981
00:30:04,202 --> 00:30:06,738
Do you have any firearms really?
982
00:30:07,338 --> 00:30:07,772
Yeah.
983
00:30:07,772 --> 00:30:08,940
They said, Do you have any firearms?
984
00:30:08,940 --> 00:30:11,042
I go, Nope, no firearms.
985
00:30:11,843 --> 00:30:14,112
Then she says, Do you own any firearms?
986
00:30:14,112 --> 00:30:16,414
I said, Yeah. She goes, Where are they?
987
00:30:17,582 --> 00:30:17,882
So your.
988
00:30:17,882 --> 00:30:19,017
Business.
989
00:30:19,017 --> 00:30:21,352
They're back in my house
990
00:30:21,352 --> 00:30:22,987
and she goes, okay, you know.
991
00:30:22,987 --> 00:30:25,290
So I told that little ditty
992
00:30:25,290 --> 00:30:27,192
and the guy goes, Perfect story
993
00:30:27,192 --> 00:30:28,193
for the podcast.
994
00:30:28,193 --> 00:30:30,829
You go. Oh, wait, sure.
995
00:30:30,962 --> 00:30:31,529
If
996
00:30:32,664 --> 00:30:34,732
I go, Oh, you were looking for a boring
997
00:30:35,700 --> 00:30:36,134
story.
998
00:30:36,134 --> 00:30:38,002
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's it.
999
00:30:38,002 --> 00:30:38,870
He goes, That's perfect.
1000
00:30:38,870 --> 00:30:39,604
You can use that.
1001
00:30:39,604 --> 00:30:43,575
That's a that's a good one.
1002
00:30:43,575 --> 00:30:45,243
Was it coming back into America?
1003
00:30:45,243 --> 00:30:46,644
Going into Canada.
1004
00:30:46,644 --> 00:30:48,680
Going into Canada?
1005
00:30:48,780 --> 00:30:51,049
Hmm.
1006
00:30:51,049 --> 00:30:53,017
Now, another thing I saw,
1007
00:30:53,017 --> 00:30:55,320
usually when you go through the U.S.,
1008
00:30:55,620 --> 00:30:56,421
nobody stop.
1009
00:30:56,421 --> 00:30:58,556
You just go right through the U.S..
1010
00:30:58,556 --> 00:30:59,324
Yeah.
1011
00:30:59,691 --> 00:31:00,525
Nobody stops you
1012
00:31:00,525 --> 00:31:02,460
till you get to the Canadian border.
1013
00:31:02,460 --> 00:31:03,494
Okay, right.
1014
00:31:03,494 --> 00:31:05,630
You're going in so you just fly by.
1015
00:31:05,697 --> 00:31:06,831
This time in the U.S.,
1016
00:31:06,831 --> 00:31:09,000
they had all sorts of dogs, trucks
1017
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,068
and everything.
1018
00:31:10,068 --> 00:31:10,802
And the U.S.
1019
00:31:10,802 --> 00:31:12,303
guys were looking through
1020
00:31:12,303 --> 00:31:13,471
everybody's car
1021
00:31:13,471 --> 00:31:16,007
and truck as they were leaving the U.S.
1022
00:31:16,441 --> 00:31:19,677
to go into Canada.
1023
00:31:19,677 --> 00:31:21,279
Just another part of the
1024
00:31:22,380 --> 00:31:25,350
boring going to Canada stories.
1025
00:31:25,350 --> 00:31:27,018
You double down, didn't you?
1026
00:31:27,018 --> 00:31:29,053
Like you had gotten a good one in there.
1027
00:31:29,988 --> 00:31:31,322
And then you
1028
00:31:31,656 --> 00:31:32,390
you.
1029
00:31:33,391 --> 00:31:35,660
Bet on that one.
1030
00:31:35,660 --> 00:31:36,361
That's okay.
1031
00:31:36,361 --> 00:31:38,396
But I couldn't believe
1032
00:31:38,696 --> 00:31:40,665
somebody in the class
1033
00:31:40,665 --> 00:31:44,435
wanted to hear a boring
1034
00:31:44,569 --> 00:31:46,771
a boring border crossers story.
1035
00:31:46,771 --> 00:31:48,006
And he got
1036
00:31:48,006 --> 00:31:49,440
exactly what he was looking for
1037
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:50,541
and said, oh,
1038
00:31:50,541 --> 00:31:51,943
now you can use that one on the show.
1039
00:31:51,943 --> 00:31:53,378
That's horrible.
1040
00:31:53,411 --> 00:31:56,247
That's good stuff.
1041
00:31:56,748 --> 00:31:58,850
Back to homeschooling.
1042
00:31:59,017 --> 00:32:00,485
I like to homeschool kids
1043
00:32:00,485 --> 00:32:01,352
and then like just
1044
00:32:01,352 --> 00:32:02,353
completely make up words
1045
00:32:02,353 --> 00:32:05,089
that make no sense whatsoever,
1046
00:32:05,089 --> 00:32:05,890
you know what I mean?
1047
00:32:05,890 --> 00:32:07,458
Like, like
1048
00:32:07,458 --> 00:32:09,127
for lunch, just make up another word.
1049
00:32:09,127 --> 00:32:11,029
Like the whole map of the world
1050
00:32:11,029 --> 00:32:11,496
and everything. Just.
1051
00:32:11,496 --> 00:32:13,031
Just completely make up.
1052
00:32:13,031 --> 00:32:13,998
Everything you told me is
1053
00:32:13,998 --> 00:32:15,333
completely wrong.
1054
00:32:17,268 --> 00:32:19,437
Steve Martin did a skit on that.
1055
00:32:19,437 --> 00:32:20,905
You keep your kids to know,
1056
00:32:20,905 --> 00:32:23,474
teach your kids to talk wrong,
1057
00:32:23,942 --> 00:32:24,175
he said.
1058
00:32:24,175 --> 00:32:25,310
So the first day in school,
1059
00:32:25,310 --> 00:32:27,679
the kid goes up to the teacher
1060
00:32:27,679 --> 00:32:28,980
and says, Can I
1061
00:32:28,980 --> 00:32:34,786
my mouth dog face to the banana patch,
1062
00:32:34,786 --> 00:32:39,524
which meant I need to go to the bathroom.
1063
00:32:39,524 --> 00:32:41,326
I love it.
1064
00:32:41,392 --> 00:32:42,994
You know, I met him.
1065
00:32:43,828 --> 00:32:45,763
Really? Yeah.
1066
00:32:45,763 --> 00:32:47,765
I met him in San Francisco.
1067
00:32:47,765 --> 00:32:50,935
He's in a he tours with
1068
00:32:50,935 --> 00:32:53,371
a bluegrass band, plays a banjo.
1069
00:32:54,072 --> 00:32:56,607
And I met him in that capacity.
1070
00:32:56,607 --> 00:32:57,575
He didn't or doesn't want to talk,
1071
00:32:57,575 --> 00:32:58,142
you know what he's doing.
1072
00:32:58,142 --> 00:32:59,010
They didn't want to talk anything
1073
00:32:59,010 --> 00:33:01,245
about comedy or SNL or any kind of stuff
1074
00:33:01,245 --> 00:33:01,846
at all.
1075
00:33:02,447 --> 00:33:04,449
He's a pretty serious musician.
1076
00:33:04,449 --> 00:33:05,850
So you got a big tournament coming up
1077
00:33:05,850 --> 00:33:07,051
next week, huh?
1078
00:33:07,051 --> 00:33:09,220
I do. I do, man.
1079
00:33:09,721 --> 00:33:11,522
I wish I could be there for that.
1080
00:33:11,522 --> 00:33:13,925
That sounds awesome.
1081
00:33:13,925 --> 00:33:14,559
Yeah.
1082
00:33:14,559 --> 00:33:15,326
I tell you what,
1083
00:33:15,326 --> 00:33:15,994
what we're going to do,
1084
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:17,261
I fished with the same guy
1085
00:33:17,261 --> 00:33:19,397
for about 30 years.
1086
00:33:19,397 --> 00:33:20,932
He is the most competitive person
1087
00:33:20,932 --> 00:33:23,034
I have ever met in my life.
1088
00:33:23,034 --> 00:33:23,935
And he'll probably tell you
1089
00:33:23,935 --> 00:33:24,902
the same thing about me.
1090
00:33:25,937 --> 00:33:28,072
He's he's coached.
1091
00:33:28,072 --> 00:33:28,773
He didn't even know anything
1092
00:33:28,773 --> 00:33:29,640
about girls softball,
1093
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:30,608
but he had a couple of girls.
1094
00:33:30,608 --> 00:33:32,844
His daughters started playing softball,
1095
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:34,245
so they needed someone to help out
1096
00:33:34,245 --> 00:33:35,580
so he would shag balls or whatever.
1097
00:33:35,580 --> 00:33:37,081
Well, in in a couple of years,
1098
00:33:37,081 --> 00:33:39,984
he's head coach and won two north coast
1099
00:33:41,452 --> 00:33:43,788
state championships at least two of them.
1100
00:33:44,489 --> 00:33:47,091
And guy is unbelievably competitive.
1101
00:33:47,091 --> 00:33:48,926
And if you were to ask him today,
1102
00:33:48,926 --> 00:33:52,730
hey, I know you fish with Wayne,
1103
00:33:52,730 --> 00:33:53,931
is he any good?
1104
00:33:53,931 --> 00:33:54,632
He will tell you
1105
00:33:54,632 --> 00:33:56,401
that beyond a shadow of a doubt,
1106
00:33:56,401 --> 00:33:59,170
he'll he'll no question in his mind
1107
00:34:00,038 --> 00:34:02,040
he's a way better fisherman in me.
1108
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:03,107
He'll tell you that beyond
1109
00:34:03,107 --> 00:34:04,275
with no reservation.
1110
00:34:04,275 --> 00:34:05,043
And he believes it
1111
00:34:05,043 --> 00:34:06,811
with every bone in his body.
1112
00:34:06,811 --> 00:34:08,613
We fish together in the same boat
1113
00:34:08,613 --> 00:34:10,214
for 30 years.
1114
00:34:10,214 --> 00:34:11,516
And I will tell you
1115
00:34:11,516 --> 00:34:13,418
beyond a shadow of a doubt,
1116
00:34:13,418 --> 00:34:15,153
no doubt in my mind,
1117
00:34:15,153 --> 00:34:16,721
not one doubt in my mind
1118
00:34:16,721 --> 00:34:18,423
that I'm better than him.
1119
00:34:18,489 --> 00:34:19,891
So but there's
1120
00:34:19,891 --> 00:34:22,393
we have no real way of knowing
1121
00:34:22,393 --> 00:34:23,594
other than I mean,
1122
00:34:23,594 --> 00:34:24,796
because we fish together all the time,
1123
00:34:24,796 --> 00:34:25,630
because if you're fishing
1124
00:34:25,630 --> 00:34:27,031
in the same boat,
1125
00:34:27,031 --> 00:34:28,299
somebody is making up
1126
00:34:28,299 --> 00:34:29,467
the decision where to go.
1127
00:34:30,601 --> 00:34:31,069
You know what I mean?
1128
00:34:31,069 --> 00:34:33,004
Someone has a front of the boat,
1129
00:34:33,004 --> 00:34:34,505
someone has an advantage.
1130
00:34:34,505 --> 00:34:35,473
Okay.
1131
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,675
So now, after all these years, we've
1132
00:34:37,875 --> 00:34:39,177
we looked on a map.
1133
00:34:39,177 --> 00:34:39,610
I said, right,
1134
00:34:39,610 --> 00:34:41,412
you live in McKinney, Texas.
1135
00:34:41,412 --> 00:34:43,081
I live in East Tennessee.
1136
00:34:43,081 --> 00:34:43,981
Let's let's
1137
00:34:43,981 --> 00:34:46,551
find the exact middle of where we live.
1138
00:34:46,951 --> 00:34:48,486
And the exact middle is
1139
00:34:48,486 --> 00:34:50,755
lake in Mississippi.
1140
00:34:50,755 --> 00:34:52,723
And so I said, all right, here's
1141
00:34:52,723 --> 00:34:53,224
what I'm going to do.
1142
00:34:53,224 --> 00:34:54,492
We're going to go get this done once
1143
00:34:54,492 --> 00:34:55,393
and for all
1144
00:34:55,726 --> 00:34:56,661
and figure out who the best
1145
00:34:56,661 --> 00:34:58,563
fishermen are. You take your boat.
1146
00:34:58,563 --> 00:34:59,397
I'll take my boat.
1147
00:34:59,397 --> 00:35:00,698
We'll meet in the middle.
1148
00:35:00,698 --> 00:35:02,166
It's two days
1149
00:35:02,166 --> 00:35:04,001
and and
1150
00:35:04,001 --> 00:35:05,336
we're going to find out who the best.
1151
00:35:05,336 --> 00:35:08,439
Now I have research this lake Rob.
1152
00:35:10,241 --> 00:35:12,577
I have research, this lake of research,
1153
00:35:12,577 --> 00:35:13,911
every new bass
1154
00:35:13,911 --> 00:35:14,612
fishing technique
1155
00:35:14,612 --> 00:35:16,747
that's come out of Japan and North Korea
1156
00:35:17,315 --> 00:35:19,250
in the last five years,
1157
00:35:19,250 --> 00:35:20,952
because they've some incredible
1158
00:35:20,952 --> 00:35:22,386
techniques over there.
1159
00:35:22,386 --> 00:35:23,588
I know. Really?
1160
00:35:23,588 --> 00:35:24,255
Oh, my gosh.
1161
00:35:24,255 --> 00:35:24,922
Yes.
1162
00:35:24,922 --> 00:35:25,490
The lakes in
1163
00:35:25,490 --> 00:35:28,059
Japan are very high pressure lakes.
1164
00:35:28,059 --> 00:35:30,661
So they have to be very subtle,
1165
00:35:31,796 --> 00:35:32,730
very
1166
00:35:34,298 --> 00:35:36,300
technique oriented
1167
00:35:36,300 --> 00:35:38,102
approaches that they use. Right.
1168
00:35:38,102 --> 00:35:39,470
Very finesse.
1169
00:35:39,470 --> 00:35:41,873
And so they're super good at it.
1170
00:35:41,873 --> 00:35:43,641
So they've got some stuff over here,
1171
00:35:43,641 --> 00:35:46,043
guys over here may not know.
1172
00:35:46,043 --> 00:35:48,880
So it's so I've researched
1173
00:35:49,147 --> 00:35:51,349
like you can't believe. Okay.
1174
00:35:51,349 --> 00:35:54,385
So I went on a fishing website
1175
00:35:54,752 --> 00:35:55,887
in Mississippi
1176
00:35:55,887 --> 00:35:57,355
to ask about that lake and he has it
1177
00:35:57,355 --> 00:35:59,257
put it punch in your username.
1178
00:35:59,257 --> 00:36:01,425
The username I used was his last name
1179
00:36:01,859 --> 00:36:02,660
because I know he's
1180
00:36:02,660 --> 00:36:03,694
going to do the same thing.
1181
00:36:03,694 --> 00:36:05,730
He's going to see that and he did
1182
00:36:06,898 --> 00:36:10,134
so this tournament.
1183
00:36:10,134 --> 00:36:11,569
And the loser
1184
00:36:11,569 --> 00:36:14,772
has to go on Facebook and say,
1185
00:36:14,772 --> 00:36:17,642
I just want to recognize that
1186
00:36:17,642 --> 00:36:20,711
a lotto excuse me.
1187
00:36:20,711 --> 00:36:23,381
I just want to recognize that that I am a
1188
00:36:24,315 --> 00:36:24,749
the Wayne
1189
00:36:24,749 --> 00:36:26,284
Highlander is a much better fisherman
1190
00:36:26,284 --> 00:36:27,151
than I am.
1191
00:36:27,151 --> 00:36:28,653
And he's always been a better fisherman.
1192
00:36:28,653 --> 00:36:29,787
And I am.
1193
00:36:29,954 --> 00:36:31,856
And and that's the that's that's it.
1194
00:36:31,856 --> 00:36:33,558
You're going to that this. Is. Finally.
1195
00:36:33,558 --> 00:36:35,893
This is the tournament of your life.
1196
00:36:36,060 --> 00:36:37,361
I cannot lose this tournament.
1197
00:36:37,361 --> 00:36:38,829
This is the biggest tournament
1198
00:36:38,829 --> 00:36:40,865
of your life, I hear. Yeah.
1199
00:36:40,865 --> 00:36:41,165
Yeah.
1200
00:36:41,165 --> 00:36:42,667
And it's for it's
1201
00:36:42,667 --> 00:36:43,968
every day is for a milkshake.
1202
00:36:45,369 --> 00:36:47,104
So whoever wins,
1203
00:36:47,338 --> 00:36:48,272
it's a two day.
1204
00:36:48,272 --> 00:36:49,273
It's first day.
1205
00:36:49,273 --> 00:36:51,509
They put it away.
1206
00:36:51,509 --> 00:36:52,710
Yeah.
1207
00:36:52,710 --> 00:36:54,745
We cannot lose this tournament, man.
1208
00:36:55,046 --> 00:36:55,813
He talks to me.
1209
00:36:55,813 --> 00:36:56,747
I wish I was there.
1210
00:36:56,747 --> 00:36:59,016
I wish I could go. Just as a judge.
1211
00:36:59,016 --> 00:37:00,785
I'd like to be the judge.
1212
00:37:00,785 --> 00:37:01,953
Yeah,
1213
00:37:01,953 --> 00:37:03,454
because I definitely would be impartial
1214
00:37:03,454 --> 00:37:05,022
to the other way.
1215
00:37:05,022 --> 00:37:06,324
I'm sure you would read for him
1216
00:37:06,324 --> 00:37:09,093
like no other.
1217
00:37:09,093 --> 00:37:11,762
So who's better? Who's better looking?
1218
00:37:11,762 --> 00:37:14,432
Oh, well, that's that.
1219
00:37:14,432 --> 00:37:15,866
That's a tie.
1220
00:37:15,933 --> 00:37:16,901
A tie?
1221
00:37:16,901 --> 00:37:18,970
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1222
00:37:18,970 --> 00:37:20,371
We both lost.
1223
00:37:20,371 --> 00:37:21,272
