This week’s episode is pure organized chaos in the best way. We catch up on the end of the school year, summer plans, camp training, birthday ideas, books, concerts, and the usual random side quests that somehow turn into half the conversation. Somewhere between all of that, we also end up talking about flat tires, roadside problem-solving, escape rooms, family plans, and the kind of everyday disaster stories that make for the best podcast material.

It’s funny, scattered, and full of the usual mix of tangents, life updates, and questionable decisions — basically, a very accurate snapshot of what happens when we sit down to record.

SPEAKER_03

That's exactly what our two listeners like.

SPEAKER_01

The fact that we talk about nothing and everything at the same time.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it's like what they used to say about Seinfeld. It was the perfect show that talked about nothing.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I mean we talk about stuff.

SPEAKER_01

No, we talk about everything. We just at the same time are talking about nothing.

SPEAKER_03

Did we talk about my golf tournament last time? I don't remember we did.

SPEAKER_01

I think we I think we slightly did, but I don't think we went that far into it.

SPEAKER_03

It was very highly successful.

unknown

Yay!

SPEAKER_03

Yay, we raised a bunch of money for kids and teachers.

SPEAKER_01

So good. We love to see it.

SPEAKER_03

We love kids and teachers.

SPEAKER_03

Um hold on, before we get anywhere. This just reminds me of a story I just saw. What is up with teachers getting it on with middle schoolers? What? I haven't seen that.

SPEAKER_01

I've I've heard about it with like high schoolers, but not middle schoolers.

SPEAKER_03

Like 43 counts.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know if that's one teacher.

SPEAKER_03

One teacher, and I don't know if that's like 43 kids or like or like 43 uh encounters. Could be seven with one and six with another. You know, I don't know the math on all of this. Have a deep dive.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know if they're I don't know if they go into like if every count like if all 43 counts are separate kids or if they're by encounter interaction.

SPEAKER_03

It's probably interaction, but I haven't even googled her to see if she's good looking or not yet.

SPEAKER_01

It was a girl, it was a woman teacher.

SPEAKER_03

Yes, a girl. Oh, I didn't say that at the beginning, did I?

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01

Um, I had three in my middle school. Well, I was there. I had one arrested after each year of or asked to leave after each year. One of only one of them I think was arrested and convicted. The other ones were just like asked to leave.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_03

What is up with this? That's so weird.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, like why are we choosing to educate children just to get close to them and do not nice things to them?

SPEAKER_03

It's not okay. Anyway, it's they're always married too. Like, what's up with that?

SPEAKER_01

Or or about or like, yeah, they're in like a long-term relationship or married or whatever. Um, anyway, so welcome back to the Dad You Should Never See That podcast. I feel like this is a good time to intro since we've been sitting here for I forgot.

His name is Kickball Dad, and every time he says something that he like is like every time he says like a claim, like of like what he believes is a fact, he goes, look it up. Stuff like that. It's I don't know, it's funny. He was on ESBN.

SPEAKER_03

I don't have the talk talk.

SPEAKER_01

Well, he's got a little bit more gray than you do. Um but like they do they did like a they did like a draft for when the first grandbaby was gonna be born.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

That's something we should add to the to uh our our family game time. Whenever all you girls start having babies, we should take bets.

SPEAKER_01

On when it comes, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_03

Oh, this week. So the golf tournament was a couple weeks. Friday, I got to go play at the Beautyle Young Life tournament with the Frostbank dudes.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that's fun.

SPEAKER_03

That was kind of fun. Um, I'm really not good at golf unless I'm driving. I can drive and somewhat putt. All that other crap in the middle where you gotta like hit flat sticks and small woods and yeah. I think they're called irons.

SPEAKER_01

My golf experience consists of um putt-putt and talk golf. And I'm not very I'm pretty good at putt-putt, not gonna lie. Pretty good at putt putt. Not very good at top golf.

SPEAKER_03

Well, it uh it's different than softball, so when you try to swing the golf club like a softball bat, it is a little different.

SPEAKER_01

That is that is definitely probably my problem in some in some aspects.

SPEAKER_03

Alright, so you're ending up uh you only got like two weeks left of school, and you'll have finished your first year.

SPEAKER_01

Uh we have yeah, a week and a half. We have next week and then Monday and Tuesday of the week after, and that's it.

SPEAKER_03

And then you have no finals.

SPEAKER_01

Nope. I'm coming home. You're coming up next Monday, and then we're leaving next Wednesday or two weeks, two Wednesdays from now.

SPEAKER_03

Gonna party at Cinco de Mayo.

SPEAKER_01

Cinco de mayo. Yeah, last day of classes. It'll be fun. Um I'm not, I don't, I'm not doing anything that day. Like, I literally don't have class that day. So we're gonna spend the day packing.

SPEAKER_02

On the fifth or the sixth?

SPEAKER_01

Fifth. We're gonna spend that day packing up the car to leave early on the sixth.

SPEAKER_03

Um, not too early, and I'm not packing up too much cars. It's gotta be in the parking lot.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I mean like packing up the room, like if we can just get everything packed in the room, get up the next morning, take everything down to the car.

SPEAKER_03

It depends on how Cinco de Maya even goes.

SPEAKER_01

We're gonna get margaritas.

SPEAKER_03

We will get margaritas.

SPEAKER_01

Margaritas. And bro, there's a I okay. So I found me and my gay best friend, JB. We found the absolute best Mexican restaurant in Lubin, Texas. No way, yes, it's called Anna's. Bro, it's of so cute in there, it is not very expensive. Like, and we got fajitas for one for 20 bucks, and we split it, and it was enough for both of us to have like two and a half tacos. Like, there was a lot of meat that they put for one person and we spent 20 bucks on it, and we got chips of queso. So, like, in total, it was like 30 bucks for the both of us to go out to eat, and we split it.

SPEAKER_03

That's pretty good.

SPEAKER_01

And the vibes in there were super cute, and it's like it looks like it's run down, but when you go inside, it's actually like really cute in there.

SPEAKER_03

Perfect. I mean, those are the best.

SPEAKER_01

So good, so good.

SPEAKER_03

So, what are you saying? Is that we're gonna go Monday night?

SPEAKER_01

Bro, maybe I don't know. We'll have to look.

SPEAKER_03

Um, so down for some good Mexican food.

SPEAKER_01

Little bit of an adventure uh in our life last week. Last week, my best friend Nat, go watch episode five. Um, Natty is going to work on I think it was Friday. No, it was Saturday, yeah. It was Saturday. She's going to work at like, she's working at like 4 p.m. So she's on the way to work. And I get a call and she's crying. And I'm like, what just happened? She works five minutes away.

SPEAKER_03

Like, right, what happened? Not that far at all.

SPEAKER_01

She goes, I she goes, I hit a curb, and I said, Okay. She's like hyperventilating. And I'm like, um, and I go, I popped my tire. And I'm like, okay, you you popped your tire. I'm still crazy. Like, she's like literally having an anxiety attack on the phone. She's like, I popped my tire, and I'm like, okay. She's like, Will you come to me? And I'm like, Yeah, I'm on the way. So I hop in my car. I literally don't, I literally had not got gotten out of bed that day. So I throw on my Crocs, grab my keys, run out the door. I don't put deodorant on, I don't put my hair up, like I do absolutely nothing. I just run out the door because she's freaking out. She's an she's a new driver.

SPEAKER_03

Um, throw on my shoes, grab my keys, a nude driver.

SPEAKER_01

New driver. I said that, bro. Nude. Nude. I said new. She's a new driver.

SPEAKER_03

College kids couldn't do that.

SPEAKER_01

Um, so she calls me whatever I go out there, and I and I get there, and I'm thinking, oh, like it'll be fine. There's one flat tire. We'll call some backup, we'll get the tire change, she'll be fine, she'll go to work. No, get out there. Both passenger sides are popped. One of them is like literally teared, like a part of the tire is teared from the other part. Right. So I'm like, what are we gonna do? So I call every male that I know who could have a car and could help us. All four of them showed up. One of them more for moral sport than anything else, but everybody showed up. And we're like, okay, like we could change this tire with the spare and then grab the spare from a car that's similar from one of our friends, and then put that on, drive it to Firestone. Um, like we could change one, drive really slow. Firestone's like four four point five miles away. So we're like, what do we do? We ended up calling a tow truck and waiting. We were out there for two hours, ended up calling a tow truck about an hour and a half in or like an hour in. So the tow truck finally gets her after like 45 minutes or something.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

Um, we tow the car, we get it to the Firestone. Firestone goes, Hey, we're gonna have to do this in the morning, but tomorrow's a Sunday, so we don't open till nine. And you're saying you need the car by 11. We have other cars that we have to work on first. I don't know if we're gonna be able to get it done. So we're like, okay, whatever, it's fine. Like worse comes worse, I'll drive not to work, I'll go get her car later. Yeah, not a big deal. So we we get Panda Express on the way home to kind of like because none of us have eaten at this point. Like we've been outside, we've been out and about for three hours, none of us had really eaten. Um we sent the boys, we sent the boys on a mission.

SPEAKER_04

3 30.

SPEAKER_01

Something like that. So at this point, it's like it's like 6 15 probably. Um we called when when the boys were over, we sent half the boys to go get water, and then we had the other, we had one of the other ones stay with us. Well, the funniest part of this whole thing is the fact that we're sitting there trying to come up with a plan for this tire. This other girl drives into the same parking lot we in with a flat tire from the same road we were just on. So we send me and one of our guy friends, Jack. We love you, Jack. We walk over to them, we're like, Do you need help changing your flat? I was like, That's why we're over here. Like our friend busted two, so we can't really do anything. We're waiting for a toe, but like Jack can like Jack's like, I can change your tire if you need me to. So we sent him over there, he helps to change the tire. He's working over there. We sent two of the other boys to go get waters from like Seven Brew because it's right next to where we crashed.

SPEAKER_02

Right.

SPEAKER_01

Um, or not where we crashed, but where the tires popped. We're we're literally on a Saturday in a Methodist church parking lot for three hours, and there's people walking in and out of this church the whole time just looking at a and there's four different cars. There's two trucks, my Jeep, or there's five cars, two drugs, two trucks, my Jeep, and two mom cars. And we're taking up like eight spots, like none of us are parked correctly. We're we have a dog with us, like such a funny thing.

SPEAKER_03

Did y'all go look in the did y'all go look in the road to see what it was that was popping the tires?

SPEAKER_01

No, so the road that she was on, which funny enough is the same road at the beginning of semester where one of my springs came loose. It's the same road.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

So the concrete, like the concrete from the sidewalk on parts of that road is like chipped, so it's like really, it's not like your your normal like bump kind of rounded. Yeah, it's not rounded, it's like sharp. So we think she got a little bit too close because she really likes to hug curb. We've told her about it, but she really likes to hug because she doesn't want to get sideswiped, and we're like, girl, you're fine, you're in a little mini mom car, you're gonna be fine. She got a little bit too close to it on one of those sharp parts, and it hit her rim, and her rim busted her front tire.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_01

We don't know what happened to the back tire, but it like it was still intact. Like, we probably could have aired it up and it would have been fine. Um or like plugged it or something, but yeah, that was a that was a three-hour adventure. But I just think it's funny, like, and I posted about this of being like, make sure you have guy friends in your life that if you call about a flat tire, they will all show up. Yeah, because we're sitting there with four different, like, four different guys showed up to help us because we were like, as soon as I got called, I started making calls because I was like, I don't know how to change a tire, but I know people who know how to change a tire who can come and help us.

SPEAKER_03

Well, and you and you know, I'll give you some credit. You could have done it. You called me on video and we found all the parts and we found where you're supposed to lift it and yeah, all the things, but you were like, It's Saturday. I don't have I'm not doing this crap.

SPEAKER_01

If there was only one tire popped, I would have changed it. But the fact that we had two, we had to come up with a game plan of like, do we steal a tire from somebody else that we could borrow? Like that has five lug nuts, that'll kind of fit. That's a similar shape, because you know, we're sitting there with a Jeep and two jacked-up trucks, none of our spare tires are gonna work for this car. So we're calling all of our girlfriends and our guy friends who have smaller cars, and eventually one shows up, but he took forever, and we had already called a tow truck that we were like, it's fine. But we ended up getting she ended up getting a call at like 10 a.m. the next morning, so she came, woke me up, um, and I took her and she went and got her car, and so everything was fine and dandy. Nice, but yeah, she Nat during this like the day before this happened, me and Nat were in the ER were in urgent care because she had um she she while this is all happening, it's her first day back at work. She has an upper respiratory infection while all of this is going on. Perfect. So she's had like when I had my eventful weeks of last semester of like going to the ER, um, car like getting in my car crash, getting my upper respiratory infection that I got last semester, like all of that happened to me back to back, and now that we're at the and that was at the beginning of the semester, and now that we're at the end of the year or beginning of last semester, now that we're at the end of this semester, apparently the same thing's happening to Nat. Like car troubles, respiratory infection, we went to urgent care.

SPEAKER_03

Oh god, just trading off who gets it in the first semester and who gets it in the second semester.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

It's been it's been it's been interesting for sure, but well, you know that brown spot that's on the top of my hood, not my hood, uh the top of the roof of my truck.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

It has expanded to look like the ghettoist. My truck is like a dark gray, and now there's a big brown, a light brown rust spot about the size of a soccer ball with the paint peeling on, and now there's another little spot in the middle. So I took it to Chevy, and they were like, Well, it looks like before this was traded in, because I bought that car used, before it was traded in, something happened and they decided to repaint the whole thing. But they didn't put any rust protection primer on it. They just stripped the car and then just repainted it so that it looked good to trade in. So I have no primer or anything underneath my car paint.

SPEAKER_01

You might just have to wrap it.

SPEAKER_03

Well, no, because they won't do it with with paint because moisture can get underneath the wrap and then it'll just rust. But here's what I'm here's what I'm doing. I'm going next week to get rhino guard my roof and my hood rhino guarded.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know what that means.

SPEAKER_03

You know that uh that's like flex tape? Like kind of like flex tape. Flex spray. It's actually like flex spray. But you know the stuff you put in in in the bed that makes it so you can't uh it's like weatherproof the bed.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Basically, that's what will be on the roof and my hood.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03

Because it's like$2,000 cheaper than paint.

SPEAKER_01

How many times do you think we can mention flex tape in this in this podcast?

SPEAKER_03

I mean, we couldn't.

SPEAKER_00

I think this is number six, honestly.

SPEAKER_03

If you had flex tape when the tire went down, you could have just put flex tape on.

SPEAKER_00

We could have just flex tape the tire and we wouldn't have been fine.

SPEAKER_03

Like or made a flex tape tire. Could have done that. It'll hold air according to the commercials. You can put a put it on a boat.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And float. So anyway, yeah, I'm gonna have the ghettoist looking truck when I come up to I'll look like I belong in Lubbock. Black roof, black hood, silver the rest of the car.

SPEAKER_01

It'll be fine. It'll look fire. It'll be fine.

SPEAKER_03

I'm gonna put a little little uh grogu or a little stitch character embedded. Just joking.

SPEAKER_01

But yeah, no, it's kinda like being at the end of the school year, like having a week and a half left, nobody wants to go to class.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And nobody really goes to class.

SPEAKER_03

No. I'm surprised professors just don't like, hey, after April 1st, just show up for your final. You got two and a half months to study.

SPEAKER_01

Well, like some of my classes I'm done with already. Like, I'm just going to class because I have to go to class for like a certain grade. But like my 11 a.m. is getting harder and harder to go to.

SPEAKER_03

What classes are you done with?

SPEAKER_01

I'm done with both of my online classes. I'm done with. I'm done with Spanish. I have one more assignment I have to do for Spanish, and it's like the final project, and then I'm done with that. I'm done with Spanish honors. Um, homicide. I have one paper I have to write. It's like a literature review, which I'm gonna work on this weekend. Um doing sometime in May. No, don't have much at all. Um, forensic science says we have our last text test next Thursday. Um, I'm done with stats next week. All right. So just finished my stats lab this week. So it's like that's what I mean. Like when when when other classes stop, you stop having work in other classes, you no longer want to go to the classes where you still have work. Because you're like, why am I even going? Because like I know that I can pass this class even if I don't go. Like I have enough, I have a good enough grade at this point that if I miss three more classes, because that's all I have left, it's not gonna hurt me.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, but you still want to kind of finish strong because you never know if you're gonna need that professor's written thing for an honors master's program or something like that. But if they don't care, then yeah, I'm with you. Why do you care?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Like for my like in my Spanish class last week, we literally made in Spanish a dating profile for a character of our choice. Like that's what our assignment for the week was. And then we had to pick who our person went well with. That was our assignment for the week.

SPEAKER_03

That's a little weird.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But it is what it is. Okay, so then and then I'm coming up, and then you're coming home, and then what do we have like 10 days before you go to camp?

SPEAKER_01

No, I have 13. So I I'm either leaving, I think I will be able to leave on the 19th, so I will be home for your birthday. Your birthday, but because I don't I don't know if I'm supposed to be there the night of the 18th or the morning of the 19th. I'm assuming the morning of the 19th.

SPEAKER_03

You should probably find out. So.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I'm waiting for them to send the information packet because they haven't sent it out yet.

SPEAKER_03

Uh yes. What are we going to do? For your birthday? Yeah, what should do this year?

SPEAKER_01

Should go to an escape room.

SPEAKER_03

Escape room? Go downtown?

SPEAKER_01

Should go find an escape room. Um and it's you and the daughter trying to do an escape room.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Shoot her in the car beforehand.

SPEAKER_03

How does eight these eight people have been in this room for 25 minutes? This is a seven-minute room. This is someone called Sal. Where is Sal?

SPEAKER_00

They've been in there for two hours. This is supposed to take 30 minutes. They haven't even found the third clue.

SPEAKER_03

Sir, open the door. We have another party coming in. Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

As long as we don't go to one of the horror ones where they like jump out at you, I'm good.

SPEAKER_03

No, because I'll I will punch a clown.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you'll pull it out. We already talked about this.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not doing it for jump scares.

SPEAKER_01

Um, but I think an escape room could be fun. I love escape rooms, and I know that your brain likes I know that your brain likes puzzles.

SPEAKER_03

Waffle House.

SPEAKER_01

And then Waffle House.

SPEAKER_03

That sounds like an event evening. There's that ghetto one in San Marcus. Is it still open? Didn't we go to one with escape room? Yeah, didn't we go with one with Austin?

SPEAKER_01

I've the only escape room I've ever been to was the one was the one connected to the pinballs. That's like a trailer. The only ever that's the only escape room I've been into.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_01

Um that's no, that's no, that's a in your house, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That's stupid. Why would I want to do that?

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. The other thing we could do is we could try to do like the unsolved case files, like the where you gotta figure out who murdered who.

SPEAKER_03

The ones that y'all were doing in the room before?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. There's a there's a bunch of those that are funny. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Well, it's whatever it's girl, it's whatever you want to do. I just know that you like puzzles.

SPEAKER_03

I just like hanging out. That's all I care about. Doing stuff, doing stuff together.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's this weekend, right?

SPEAKER_01

I know. I've been seeing like all everybody pre like, I don't care about Coachella. I really don't care about like I'm all like my TikTok is full of Coachella, and I'm like, I don't care. I'm like, I'm just waiting for the stagecoach content because I want to go so bad. But tickets are so expensive.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And I don't even know. Can you I don't even think you can go can you go to just one day, or do you can you just do you have to get a whole pass?

SPEAKER_01

I think stagecoach you can only go. I think I think it's a I think you can buy tickets for just one day.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's right. No, no, no.

SPEAKER_01

It's not it's not like I don't think it's like Coachella where you have to actually get.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I think it is.

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah, it is three days. It's three day passes.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, three-day pass. And then you get depending on how crazy you want, depends on the VIP and all that other stuff you get.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, no, but if I honestly, if we do go to State Coachella one, or not Coachella, if we do go to Stagecoach one day, I want to get like those real nice. I guess like we're only gonna go once, we should go all out for it. Like we should save for it and go all out and get like the really like the really the coral package for four grand. The coral, yeah, the coral reserved seating for uh yeah. Or actually, it's okay. So the highest the best seats they have are the diamond, yeah, for four grand. Gold rush for I mean, we could get the gold rush for 2700 a person.

SPEAKER_03

A piece. That's not like that bad. That's not per group.

SPEAKER_01

No, I'm saying, but we could like you know, say like we save for it and then we go. But then we and then you know, we get a little get a little RV, rent an RV, go park it at the place for two grand total.

SPEAKER_02

That is true.

SPEAKER_01

So let's see, if we took six people, four grand a person for tickets, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

So 2037.

SPEAKER_01

Gotcha, Coachella. I mean stage coach. Everybody start giving me a hundred dollars a month right now, seven years, four grand times six. Oh no, we'll go five. You and the we'll just do you and the girls.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, that's oh is is what? Go ahead. Uh-huh. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So if we drop 20 grand, right? We let's say we rent an RV for the weekend, that's probably what? Two grand.

SPEAKER_02

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, right. And then we add another two grand for parking. So it's only 24 grand, right? For the five of us to go.

SPEAKER_02

Yes.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Which honestly, we could do. If you give us like if we have like five years to prep, you know. I think that everybody could save, you know, whatever it that is about it. You know, everybody could save$4,800.

SPEAKER_03

I think we would do the coral coral reserved seating. It's like close, but you get to go into general admission and saloon areas, and then you get souvenirs each night.

SPEAKER_01

Specialty food and drink, bathrooms, air conditioning bathrooms.

SPEAKER_03

Shaded seating areas. Grab and go food options like you're at a football game.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I feel like that's all we would need.

SPEAKER_03

That's all we need, right?

SPEAKER_01

But everybody's got to be 21 when we go for sure. Oh photo show. Okay, so if it's only okay, let's say we got C1.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

That's let's say, let's just round here. Let's go 2,500 times 5.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

It's only$1,250. Plus plus the$4 grand for the RV and this parking spot for the RV.$16,000.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Divided by five. So we're still back at$20.

SPEAKER_01

No, we're not. We're at$3,300 a person. That's$1,500.

SPEAKER_03

Beverages.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, we're back at$20. But it's better than if we got VIP, it'd probably be closer to$35.

SPEAKER_02

That's true. That's true.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, if everybody saves like eight grand, we could go. Or if we become really big and popular and a brand wants to send us to Stagecoach.

SPEAKER_03

We could be your reporters.

SPEAKER_01

Let us know. We could report on it.

SPEAKER_03

Pendejo. Send us.

SPEAKER_01

Sponsor us.

unknown

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Send us to stage. We don't care about Coachello. Send us to Stagecoach.

SPEAKER_03

We'll be the Pendejo reporters at Stagecoach.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. And it'll be oh, I don't know if I can mention what we your your amazing idea of the branch channel.

SPEAKER_02

A what?

SPEAKER_01

The branch channel off of this.

SPEAKER_03

Oh. Can't can't can't tell you. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Not yet.

SPEAKER_03

Not yet. Our seven listeners will be so excited once we get to the case.

SPEAKER_01

In the make ink. It's in the making. We're working on it. Um but yeah, I'm excited to come home.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Um, I'm kind of sad that I won't be able to go to a lot of my friends' graduations. I won't I won't be able to be there, which is kind of sad, but I'm gonna see a lot of them before they graduate. Um since I'll be at camp. Um but yeah, it'll be a lot of um just kind of hanging out at the house if I'm not somewhere. If I'm not like if it's not cruise or travel or camp, I will probably be at home doing almost absolutely nothing except for trying to pack and reading, which I'm back into reading. I finished a book in two days. Um I'm about to finish another book that I started two days ago.

SPEAKER_04

Perfect. That's great.

SPEAKER_01

So I'm trying to get myself back into it because I have four books here that I want to try and see if I can finish before I come home.

SPEAKER_02

Whoa.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, because I have not read all year. Like literally all year.

SPEAKER_03

Well, and you don't have any classes, so maybe you'll be able to read a little bit more.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I don't really have I don't have all that many classes or assignments or whatever, so I've been I've been like able to convince myself that I'm not wasting time by reading a book about dragons and fairies and romance. So that's the good news.

SPEAKER_03

Is it though? You could be wasting your time reading that.

SPEAKER_01

No, they're so good, dude. One day I'm gonna force you to read a fantasy book. Why do dragons like it?

SPEAKER_03

Hey, I read all of the Lord of the Rings.

SPEAKER_01

Lord of the Rings does not count. I'm talking about like new romance fantasy. Like romantic. Why not?

SPEAKER_03

Who wants to read about dragons hooking up? That's gross.

SPEAKER_01

No, it's not about dragons hooking up, it's about dragons are just around. Like they're just part of the story. And not all of them have dragons. Like the one that I one of the the one that I'm about to the one that I'm reading now isn't fantasy, it's a mafia romance, and it's a little rough. The one I'm about to read is about Hercules, Hercules' daughter, who doesn't know that she's the daughter of Hercules.

SPEAKER_03

What's what's her name?

SPEAKER_01

I don't remember. I haven't read the I I'm about to read the sequel.

SPEAKER_03

Herculina. What do you mean? If you then you don't know her name and you've already read a book about her?

SPEAKER_01

Well, I haven't I haven't read it sin though. I read the first one while I was in Asia on Mom's Kindle.

SPEAKER_03

Um Herculina?

SPEAKER_01

No. Her name is really Zara. Or what is it?

SPEAKER_03

It's like a Hercules name.

SPEAKER_01

What is her name? I'm trying to find it.

SPEAKER_03

Jeremina.

SPEAKER_01

Um it's like a relatively normal name.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. That sounds lame. Nobody wants a normal name and your dad is Hercules.

SPEAKER_01

Well, but she doesn't know. Oh, her name is Alexis.

SPEAKER_03

Ah.

SPEAKER_01

I think. Yeah, Alexis. Her name's Alexis. No, well, but she doesn't know that she's auto Hercules. She thought that she was just like a normal human being, but turns out that she's not. She's a they call him something in there, but essentially a demigod.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Well, that should be better than dragons hooking up. I don't know why you're reading that.

SPEAKER_01

Bro, I don't read animals Pokemon's hooking up.

SPEAKER_03

It's like animals.

SPEAKER_01

No, no. I've never read a book about animals in that way.

SPEAKER_03

What um. Yeah. So books and movies and music should be pretty good summer. And then next year you're a junior. You skipped.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I'm a junior. Skipping, skipping a year. Basically, skipping sophomore year.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So going to junior next year. Um, very excited to live with the girlies I'm living with next year. I think it'll be really fun. We've started like kind of planning out the living room and such. So I think it'll be really fun.

SPEAKER_03

Biscuits bed is.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Well, good thing is that everybody's okay with them her going in their room. So she'll have a little, she'll have a little bed, but she'll probably be on ours more often than not.

SPEAKER_03

She'll need a sleeping schedule. She'll need everybody's school schedule to know whose room to jump into.

SPEAKER_01

Because that little freaking who's up who sleeps in the latest. That's where I'm going. Well.

SPEAKER_03

Well that little freak sleeps with me and then um I guess the bed is still warm after I take her out to pee and then she jumps right back in the spot and I don't see her until like lunchtime.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that sounds about right.

SPEAKER_03

So if there was another human that she could just butt up against, I'm sure she would just sleep in there.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, she's gonna have to get used to going up and downstairs, which I don't think she's gonna be very happy about.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, she'll be fine. She loves it.

SPEAKER_01

But I think she'll have fun, and there will always be people over, which I think she'll be very happy about because she'll always have people to give her lovens.

SPEAKER_03

Well, and you'll just have to as normal, just watch her since she's a runner.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and not her to run out the door.

SPEAKER_03

She's super fast. Or I'm just old. One of the two.

SPEAKER_01

It's her little schwabba legs. Um just about covers everything that we didn't plan on talking about that we talked about.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Um, and if we had planned something to talk about, we wouldn't have actually made it to there yet.

SPEAKER_01

Probably not, because we don't seem to ever do. There's still two topics that we were supposed to talk about that we still haven't talked about, so we'll get to them eventually, hopefully.

SPEAKER_02

What are those?

SPEAKER_01

Um, I think it was paranormal part two.

SPEAKER_03

Oh.

SPEAKER_01

And then you never finished that?

SPEAKER_03

That was like two months ago.

SPEAKER_01

No, we never did the we were supposed to do the part two one of the days, and then we sidetracked to something else. Um, and then I don't remember what the other one was, but there was another one. Well, okay, this was episode 29, which means that next week is episode 30.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Which means that there's a special guest at next episode.

SPEAKER_03

Do you have that special guest?

SPEAKER_01

I do have that special guest.

SPEAKER_03

Perfect.

SPEAKER_01

Um, or some may say guests. Plural.

SPEAKER_03

There's guests. So you'll have to come, you'll have to come or window zoom meeting.

SPEAKER_01

You'll have to come next week um to come see who's who's gonna come talk. It's gonna be. I'm not telling dad anything about the episode, but it's gonna be a little crazy. I'll tell you that right now. For it's the last episode of the semester.

unknown

Perfect.

SPEAKER_01

Episode 30. I feel like we have to end it out on kind of a shabam, so it'll be fun. I have it all planned, and dad has no idea about it.

SPEAKER_03

I do not. So um, I gotta make sure I guess I take that day off. Who knows what's gonna happen. Yeah, next Thursday is all open.

SPEAKER_01

Join us next Thursday. Um, it was great. Great to see you again, Papa. Great to talk to you for another week of where the points don't matter and nothing we ever say makes sense. Um, you wanna finish, you wanna intro us out?

SPEAKER_03

And for our listeners and all of our future sponsors, we love you. Make sure you go to Instagram, make sure to follow us, make sure to leave us a comment. I still don't think anybody's ever left us a comment. Nope. Maybe we need to put more stuff on the interwebs like about our existence every other day or something. I don't know, something stupid. I don't know, we'll figure it out. I'll do dad joke of the day or week or because I have probably three million jokes in my head.

SPEAKER_01
