1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,160
Ready to go.
I need a bag.

2
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:04,800
I need a new Golf bag
eventually, but those are

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:06,760
expensive.
Remember how I won that golf

4
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,360
bag?
By getting closest to the pin?

5
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,000
We sold it.
It was really stupid.

6
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,120
I don't know, at a garage sale?
Oh wow.

7
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:14,720
But.
Well.

8
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,440
That was like 10 years ago so.
The guy you wanted the C pap for

9
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,720
$7.00 or whatever.
Yeah, probably.

10
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,640
This is due to underwhelming
demand with Dave, Rachel and

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,120
Forum and the podcast that
proves that anything worth doing

12
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:41,080
is worth doing underwhelmingly.
Try saying that five times fast.

13
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,320
You know if your standards are
too high in life just leads to

14
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,360
disappointment.
Exactly so.

15
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:50,760
Just accept that this qualifies
as entertainment.

16
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,600
That's right.
And move on and move on and on

17
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,600
this thing that qualifies as
entertainment.

18
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,400
Rachel Golf's foreman
overshoots.

19
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:05,360
And Dave has an extremely third
world problem, as always.

20
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,200
Third World or First World?
First world, yes.

21
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,480
Sorry, there's no third world
possible north of Fan Shop.

22
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,560
Already proved the point how he
doesn't know how good he has.

23
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,240
Yeah, you're right.
I thought it was.

24
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,240
Yeah, you're right.
It's a first row problem.

25
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,280
OK.
All right, So you're.

26
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,240
Starting Rachel, I've been
golfing.

27
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,320
Have you?
Yes, Well, you.

28
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,960
Know you know what hockey
players do in the summertime?

29
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,680
We golf.
So that's what we're doing.

30
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,120
Now that I'm such an athlete,
I'm doing both sports.

31
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:41,960
I have a winter sport and a
summer sport.

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,840
Oh wow, are you laughing?
Yes, because you said you said

33
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:49,160
you know what hockey players do
in the summertime and you said

34
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,120
we golf.
Yes, I am a hockey player.

35
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,480
I'm a hockey player and I am
golfing now.

36
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,480
So, as you know, I golfed.
How many rounds have you got?

37
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:06,560
In so far one it just started.
No, I've signed up for a ladies

38
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,639
golfing league.
That means nothing.

39
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,320
So I'm in a league and we go
every week.

40
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,120
Only once.
I actually can't go this week

41
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:19,800
but I am going next week.
See, he didn't know what he

42
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,320
knew.
Again, this is.

43
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,560
Last week, and that was.
Nine holes.

44
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,680
Nine holes.
That's not golf.

45
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:28,680
That's.
Just one.

46
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,320
Oh, it is.
Half you win a half a.

47
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,560
Time half a golf that's.
Fine.

48
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,480
And it was a 5 some there was
five of us.

49
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,200
They let us.
OK, see, you can't do that.

50
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,200
It's not allowed to.
Do carts and one person had her

51
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,840
push carts and so she would
sometimes jump on our cart and

52
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,480
pull the cart as we drove.
So that worked because you can

53
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,600
fit 3 bodies but only two golf
cart golf bags.

54
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,400
So you weren't you weren't one
of the people walking.

55
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,840
No.
Was there anybody behind you?

56
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,960
Yes.
So this was the, we went on a

57
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,920
Saturday morning and they had a
breakfast for us like a

58
00:03:04,920 --> 00:03:09,640
continental breakfast.
And, and this was kind of the,

59
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,360
the, the kickoff to, to the
whole season, right?

60
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,600
So there's a lot of ladies there
that morning for breakfast and

61
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,480
then you could tee off and, and
golf.

62
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,040
So there was a group in front of
us and a group behind us.

63
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,080
So we were trying to keep up.
And I think if we didn't have

64
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:28,480
carts, we would have been a lot
slower like we were, yes, we

65
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,760
would have been.
It would have been painful for

66
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,000
the people behind us because
there was a twosome behind us

67
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,840
and.
A twosome behind a fivesome.

68
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,040
Well, they just, I don't know.
That's when they looked it.

69
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,680
There wasn't any way where to
go.

70
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,040
The people, we were right up
against the people in front of

71
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,240
us.
They were walking.

72
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,160
There was three or four of them.
So it was a busy time.

73
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,560
It was fine.
We were trying to get it, get

74
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,160
through as much as we can.
Dave, you.

75
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,440
Seem to be a stickler for how
golf works and what the rules

76
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,080
should be.
Just two symbol 5.

77
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,000
But just picture this league is
full of Rachel's.

78
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,960
I know well so they they should
put a sign up.

79
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,200
I don't.
Know where you.

80
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,640
I don't know where you played
the but there should be a sign

81
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,800
up saying don't anybody come out
Saturday mornings because

82
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,720
you're.
OK, well, it's not always sad.

83
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,160
This Saturday happened to be
when a lot of us were there

84
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,200
because oh.
It's not Oh so.

85
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,680
You had the breakfast.
Jumping all over the place so

86
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,480
nobody.
That's not fun.

87
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,520
Right, so you once.
Again, now I'm really.

88
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,520
Annoyed now?
You're you're really annoying

89
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:31,880
you.
Can book anytime in the week.

90
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,200
I think the typical day is
Thursday for the league, but you

91
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,520
can go any anytime as long as
you go and they stamp your card

92
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,080
or whatever.
And you get 5 people and you

93
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,120
clog everything up.
So five of us joins together,

94
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,120
but we know that like there's
going to be weeks where like one

95
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,040
or two of us can't go, or maybe
two of us go one day and three

96
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,080
of us go a different day.
So it's, you know, they're all

97
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,560
going Thursday.
I can't go Thursday.

98
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,720
I I'm out.
So I can't do Thursday.

99
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,440
So that's fine.
I'll find another day.

100
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,520
You have to do 12 times in the
season, so that's fine.

101
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,560
I'll, I'll make it up at
another. .12 How are you going

102
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:07,640
to do?
That I know.

103
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,120
That's two more than hockey, and
hockey was a lot, although

104
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,440
hockey was way harder.
And you missed.

105
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,200
Several of those.
How many hockey's did you miss?

106
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:23,320
2 So I did 8 hockey scissors 10
and I missed 2 and so yeah.

107
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,200
And eight was hard enough. 8 was
hard enough. 10 would have been

108
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,040
a bitch.
Oh yeah. 12 golfing session.

109
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,560
Well see I so I find golf easier
because it doesn't.

110
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:39,160
I'm not in pain doing it, but
it's difficult to hit the ball.

111
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,280
That's not that's not easy, as
you know.

112
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,520
So I kind of thought, oh, I'm
just going to join this league

113
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,520
and I don't need to keep score.
I don't care.

114
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,800
I'm just out there to do it.
But no, you have to keep score

115
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:54,840
and you get points for things
like over and above the scores.

116
00:05:54,840 --> 00:05:57,520
There's points for different
pricing and whatever.

117
00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:01,240
So the very first week was wear
pink week.

118
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,600
So for every item of pink
clothing you wore, you got a

119
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,520
point.
So we all came decked out like

120
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,960
we were in pink pants, pink
shorts, pink sweaters, shirts,

121
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:19,000
tank tops, scrunchies, earrings,
necklaces, whatever we could

122
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,040
find.
Somebody wore a Fanny pack.

123
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:25,000
Like we rated our little kids
pinks things and wore whatever

124
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,840
we could find that was pink.
So I got 12 points because I was

125
00:06:27,840 --> 00:06:30,360
wearing 12 pink things.
What does that?

126
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,760
What the hell does that have to
do with golf?

127
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,840
Does that count to your score?
No.

128
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,320
The points are for some kind of
prizing.

129
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,320
They have, you know, different
things each week.

130
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,760
I don't really know.
I don't know.

131
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,240
What would make you feel good
though, Rachel at the end of the

132
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,280
season if you won an award for
excelling in pink?

133
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,000
That's probably the only award
I'm getting and I did.

134
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,360
I excelled.
So we walk in and we go for

135
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,360
breakfast and immediately
somebody says Pink was on

136
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,360
Thursday.
We're completely decked out, all

137
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,120
five of us, but.
Only the five of you.

138
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:09,200
Only us?
Yeah.

139
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,760
Everybody else is the normal
golf attire.

140
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,200
Well, now I approve of the pink.
Yeah.

141
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,040
But the golf lady?
Who runs the league?

142
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,920
Is like, no, no, no, it's fine.
It was all week long.

143
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,640
You can still wear it.
And now I don't know if she said

144
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,960
that just to make us.
Feel wearing pink you?

145
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,240
Should be deducted for wearing.
It was one of the old ladies.

146
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:30,600
They're all, it's full of old
lady.

147
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,880
They're probably crabby because
they're not wearing pink.

148
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,240
They're having no fun, so you
know they.

149
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,840
Wore pink 2 days ago.
There were.

150
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,200
Problems where they behind you.
That's why they're crappy.

151
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,200
No, this is at breakfast.
She might have been mine.

152
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,720
I don't.
I actually don't even know who I

153
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,080
was at.
What point do you golf?

154
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,000
OK, so we had breakfast and then
we went out golfing.

155
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,280
We did.
We did go out.

156
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:56,680
So the Max you can get is double
par because we needed to know

157
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,520
that.
So how?

158
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,920
Many pars did you get?
None.

159
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,080
How many double pars did you
get?

160
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,720
Pretty much all of them.
Yeah, pretty much all of them.

161
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,120
How?
Many points do you get for.

162
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,800
That I don't know.
I don't know.

163
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,280
You have to score your total.
Score and then your putts.

164
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,920
So if you get 8 which is a
double par, let's say it's par 4

165
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,120
and you get 8 and you putted 2
times.

166
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,640
I don't know till basically till
you maxed out at 8:00 and then

167
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:30,640
it would be like 8/2, right?
How often did you Max out then?

168
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,679
I would say 8 or 9 * 8.
Times.

169
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:37,480
Nine times.
Was there 1 hole where you

170
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,760
actually got in like 7?
Shots did get a couple holes

171
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,280
where I was under the Max.
Wow, I don't know but.

172
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,040
That's good.
I know I that criminal.

173
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,120
Think or you know you.
I do know.

174
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,880
I do know.
Yeah, I there was a couple that

175
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,280
we got, we got under, Yeah.
And on the last hole it was a

176
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,440
par five.
My God, and all of us maxed out

177
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,040
at 10 and then we just and one
girl just quit.

178
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,720
She's like, you know what?
Just put me down for A10 Like

179
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,280
I'm not even she did one drive
and she's like, I'm done.

180
00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:09,600
Nope, this is.
And we're like, OK, so she just

181
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:10,880
sat in the cart, drove everybody
around.

182
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,160
This is the best part of your
golf.

183
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,600
Would it have been the
breakfast?

184
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,960
Yeah, well, the camaraderie, of
course, minus Crabby Lady, but

185
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,560
yeah, the camaraderie is nice.
And you have many more, many

186
00:09:23,560 --> 00:09:24,640
more golfs.
To tell them.

187
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,160
Although you can't golf this
week.

188
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,040
Right.
Yes, we have 11 more, but this

189
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,800
was just to update you about my
athletic journey.

190
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,120
Prowess.
Yes, Prowess I.

191
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,800
Don't think prowess, more jury.
And we were all very excited

192
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,040
about look at the end of the
year, we're going to be by by

193
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,160
the end of the season, we're
going to be so great.

194
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,040
Like we're going to be knocking
these things like hitting bombs

195
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,440
down the.
OK, well, right, that's what we

196
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:48,520
expect then.
Foreman.

197
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,320
Yes, Rachel just said it.
Save that, please.

198
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:55,120
Yeah, we will repeat.
That prediction?

199
00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:00,120
Prediction yes and for Mother's
Day Jeremy got me.

200
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,840
Actually I have a golf question
for you, but Jeremy got me a new

201
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,560
visor for golf because I
requested an A visor and a golf

202
00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:12,440
a new Golf glove for my other
hand because I I squeeze the

203
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,520
club so tight it I kind of rub
my the right thing.

204
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,200
I wear the glove on my left
hand.

205
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,240
Can I wear 2 gloves or is that a
faux pas?

206
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,560
No, you can do that.
You can do whatever you want.

207
00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:23,840
I don't care.
And he said I.

208
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,600
Don't know if you can wear.
People don't really do that.

209
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,000
Yeah, on your head.
Wear all the gloves you wear the

210
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,320
pink how?
Enjoy your breakfast, down the

211
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,560
mimosas and go out in front of
me, whatever the fuck.

212
00:10:33,560 --> 00:10:37,440
Exactly, just let me know where
you're playing before.

213
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:39,840
So don't worry, we're not
playing with you, Dave.

214
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,760
No, but just if you're at my
golf course, I need to know.

215
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,680
Yeah, No, we're not at yours.
Rest assured, we're not there.

216
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,800
Thank you.
I'm not saying more than you

217
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,240
think, David.
I know.

218
00:11:05,070 --> 00:11:08,270
This is due to underwhelming
demand the podcast that if it

219
00:11:08,270 --> 00:11:13,150
were a soap opera, I believe it
would be called Days of Our

220
00:11:13,150 --> 00:11:15,430
Pathetic Lives.
Oh yeah.

221
00:11:16,670 --> 00:11:18,870
See, we all agree.
Yes, yeah.

222
00:11:18,990 --> 00:11:24,400
Welcome to another episode of
Days of Our Pathetic Lives.

223
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,240
Yeah, Foreman.
It'll make you ask the question,

224
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,320
are they still in that coma
that's.

225
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,000
Right.
He came back to life.

226
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:38,880
In fact, one year at summer
camp, we did a theatre camp and

227
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,800
we did a like a soap opera.
You need to talk about something

228
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,400
to do with the flute or the.
No, it's theatre camp.

229
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,040
We did, you know, as the world
turns, as the world turns.

230
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,760
No, we did as the stomach turns.
It was funny.

231
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,720
It was a funny spoof on a
Anyway.

232
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:56,480
How?
Good.

233
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,240
It was a riot.
Well, Riot.

234
00:11:59,960 --> 00:12:03,680
Here we are, day five days after
the fact, and I'm still filling

235
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:06,840
my stomach with leftovers from
Harley's birthday party.

236
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,640
It's.
Her birthday party, How was that

237
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,440
good?
It was 1012 year old girls

238
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,880
sleeping over.
Ten of them sleeping over.

239
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,320
Yep.
Holy.

240
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,760
Crap 12 year old girls on a
sleepover.

241
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,760
Wow, yeah.
I would have cut that number

242
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,160
right in half.
That's a lot of kids.

243
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,400
I was not in charge.
Well, you're very brave.

244
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,400
You're a brave.
I sort of figured that.

245
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:35,120
Yeah, you.
Do that.

246
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,560
I sort of figured that.
Yeah, but I'm glad someone was

247
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:43,280
and it still went well.
I mean, other than they're loud

248
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,760
and I'm pretty sure our
neighbors weren't fond of us

249
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:46,400
but.
Right.

250
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,920
Yeah.
Otherwise, yeah, everyone got

251
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,800
along well.
Everyone slept.

252
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,200
We thought there's going to be a
whole, you know, this is what

253
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,000
happens with sleepovers where
kids come up in the middle of

254
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,040
the night and say, I can't
sleep, I want to go home.

255
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,600
No one did that, so that's
bonus.

256
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,640
We did, however, expect them to
eat a whole lot more than they

257
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,760
did.
So what was the menu?

258
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,840
They're 12 year old girls.
They don't eat a lot.

259
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,480
Yes, they do.
They do.

260
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,600
Well, not as much as you
planned, I guess.

261
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:18,520
No, the menu was there was an
ice cream cake for cuz, you

262
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:19,840
know, birthday.
Sure.

263
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,640
Marble slab, by the way.
Nice.

264
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:26,720
Strawberry ice cream cake with
actual strawberries in it.

265
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:27,600
Wow.
Done.

266
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,960
OK, done.
Yeah, beat that Dairy Queen.

267
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,560
I don't think they can and.
We lost another potential

268
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:36,080
sponsor.
Continue.

269
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,680
No, I'm saying I'm willing for
them to demonstrate to me how

270
00:13:40,680 --> 00:13:43,040
they're gonna be OK.
OK.

271
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,920
So taunting them will work.
OK.

272
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,480
All right.
So far so good with the keg.

273
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,480
Yeah, yeah.
We're zero for zero, yeah.

274
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:58,760
And there was 2 Costco fruit
trays and two Costco veggie

275
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,720
trays.
And I went out and picked up an

276
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,720
order of seven.
Pizzas 7 pizzas.

277
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,080
For 10 kids.
Yeah, 12 kids.

278
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:10,440
Well, 12.
Right.

279
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,640
Well, there's 10 in total, yeah.
10 in yeah plus like.

280
00:14:13,680 --> 00:14:16,960
Ashley and I were gonna eat too.
So there's a half a pizza for

281
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,480
each person.
Well, yeah, because normally if

282
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,440
we ever do order pizza, the
girls will eat like half a piece

283
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,400
each.
So we're like, well, we better

284
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,400
have enough for all these kids.
OK.

285
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,360
Sure, and it turns out we
overshot it by 3 1/2 veggie and

286
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,720
fruit trays and four pizzas.
Well, first you could probably.

287
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,400
So you only ate three pizzas?
Don't.

288
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,400
Fly while I have.
Pizzas left intact.

289
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:44,720
While I admire while I admire
your your decision.

290
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,960
Or perhaps it was your lovely
wife's of.

291
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,280
Course it was.
She's the best one.

292
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,280
Great to have a veggie tray.
She listens to this, and she

293
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,680
knows to.
To want veggie trays for these

294
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,000
kids, how well did they go over?
Oh, not bad.

295
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,920
I mean they ate the carrots and
they ate the the pea pods,

296
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,200
whatever they are the snow
boots.

297
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,520
They don't eat the.
Rest of it, No, the broccoli

298
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,840
wasn't a big hit.
Yeah, cherry tomatoes.

299
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,320
Not a big hit.
Really.

300
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,640
My kids love cherry tomatoes and
Kendall loves broccoli.

301
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,080
The Pepper birthday.
Party sell Peppers though?

302
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,920
Really.
I mean, like when you're at the

303
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,640
birthday party.
I mean, it's a party.

304
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,720
Yeah, I don't want like to be, I
guess.

305
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,280
Yeah, yeah, I don't.
Expect to be.

306
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,760
Also though, we had a candy bar.
Oh, fancy.

307
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,800
I think that went over well.
It did, other than they didn't

308
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,000
eat a whole lot of that either.
In fact, many of the.

309
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,080
Kids all the pizza that you
overfed I.

310
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,800
Was gonna say maybe they filled
up on candy and they didn't eat

311
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:40,640
the rest.
That's why.

312
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,480
Well, they.
Did have the candy first that

313
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,040
was out all afternoon, but well
before the pizza came.

314
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,760
But they didn't eat that much of
it.

315
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,360
And in fact, many of the girls
stopped themselves because like

316
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,360
we're saying out loud, no, I've
had too much candy.

317
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,120
Like they had restraint.
I don't know how that's possible

318
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,000
at 12.
Well, because they're 12 and.

319
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,080
Yeah.
Sure, and then they all maybe

320
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:08,000
basically ate a piece of pizza.
So how many pizzas do you have

321
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,680
leftover?
Full pizza 4.

322
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:16,680
OK, so you put even your word.
7. 7/7 is a lot of pizza.

323
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,280
I mean, 2/1 was medium and one
was small.

324
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:23,480
One, one of the girls has a
gluten thing, a legitimate 1,

325
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,040
not just someone who says yeah,
yeah.

326
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,640
So she had to get her own.
But otherwise, yeah, yeah, it

327
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:30,920
was.
It was a lot of leftovers.

328
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,880
Which, well, I can tell you this
is not the first time that

329
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,320
Foreman has overshot the amount
of food.

330
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,880
Now, I partly.
Yeah, this.

331
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:41,720
I've been to your parties.
I wish.

332
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,000
You would just say the last time
that Foreman is overshocked, but

333
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,200
you had to keep going and that's
fine.

334
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,000
When have I ever overdone
anything?

335
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,400
Nothing I do is overdone, Yeah.
Exactly.

336
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:58,000
I was at no, I will say that I
if I'm throwing a party, I want

337
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,560
to have more than enough food.
I don't want to run out of food.

338
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,240
Yes, right.
So you it's, I mean, that's a

339
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,839
good problem to have, but this
is not the first time because I

340
00:17:07,839 --> 00:17:11,319
was at one of your kids, but
probably Harley's birthday when

341
00:17:11,319 --> 00:17:15,319
you lived here the first time
and you guys had so much pizza.

342
00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:16,680
I think you sent us home with
one.

343
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,920
Oh, good.
OK, so we have done this before.

344
00:17:20,079 --> 00:17:22,280
I don't recall that.
I'm pretty sure we left with a

345
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:23,599
full pizza.
Yeah.

346
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,040
I'm pretty sure we did.
Well, which we should have, but

347
00:17:27,079 --> 00:17:30,520
because in fact, but we didn't
offer yet.

348
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:36,080
However, almost every single
girl at this party said well

349
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,600
I'll take it home because my dad
will eat a whole pizza as a

350
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,520
snack.
Really.

351
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,560
All of them said their dads,
which is devours pizza.

352
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,360
Well, you know, late night.
Snacks, sure, but so part of the

353
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:50,840
reason I'm like, well, yeah, but
I was planning to do that, so.

354
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,320
I'm the dad and I'm going to eat
them.

355
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,080
Yeah, she's just given this. 4
snacks for me.

356
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,240
Did you have party favors for
all these girls?

357
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,280
Oh yeah, they all took home
candy as.

358
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,640
Well, you might as well go.
To the candy bar should.

359
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:02,680
Have given them.
Pizzas.

360
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,400
I know well.
Half a pizza for you.

361
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,040
Half a pizza for you.
There you.

362
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:08,640
Go.
You're the You're the Oprah of

363
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,120
pizza.
You get a pizza.

364
00:18:10,120 --> 00:18:12,080
You get a pizza.
There you go.

365
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,560
It has been handy for lunches
for days.

366
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:15,720
Oh, absolutely.
Yeah.

367
00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:17,800
So they have pizza day at
school, Yeah.

368
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,480
Plus all the veggies and the
fruit that you like.

369
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,440
It's a whole meal, day after day
after day.

370
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,560
Groceries for a while, which is
a good thing.

371
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,520
You know, turns out I'm the only
one in this family fine with

372
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,080
that menu, so.
Nobody, everybody else is sick

373
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:32,040
of it.
No one wants it.

374
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,160
No one wants the rest.
Some of those pizzas.

375
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,840
In the freezer.
Yeah, after lunch on Sunday, no

376
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,760
one else wanted a damn piece of
anything.

377
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,800
It'll all get thrown out by the
time.

378
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,360
Oh, I'm eating it.
I'm.

379
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,920
Out Dale yet?
Yes, but I'm still eating it on

380
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:55,240
principle, yes.
Yeah.

381
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,320
This is due to underwhelming
demand.

382
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,120
The podcast?
That's like having your own

383
00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:12,560
backyard pool.
Not as much fun as you might

384
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,800
think.
I'd be willing to try.

385
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,600
Oh, well, you did have a
backyard.

386
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,160
Yeah.
Yeah, you did, and it was great.

387
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,800
By the way, this podcast isn't
as much fun as you think.

388
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,400
Just saying that.
I mean, the the correlation is

389
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,400
there, but that's what I would
like to talk about is a backyard

390
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,480
pool because I have a backyard
pool.

391
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:31,800
Must be nice.
What?

392
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,400
A what?
A So does Rachel.

393
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,440
It must be nice.
It must be nice.

394
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,200
Must be very nice, yeah?
Rachel.

395
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,760
Is not open yet.
Is yours open?

396
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,360
Oh yeah, mine's open.
What are we talking above ground

397
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,520
like a common?
Person or a no I had.

398
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,760
Person.
No, you had a pool at one point,

399
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,120
your last host in Saint Thomas
and.

400
00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:56,320
Your other house in Halifax,
didn't you?

401
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,480
That was a.
Swim Spa What's a swim spa?

402
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,080
What is that?
It's a.

403
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,280
It's an all weather pool A
really it's.

404
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:05,800
OK, it was nice.
It must.

405
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,040
Be it was nice.
It must be nice.

406
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:12,240
It must be nice.
It was very nice.

407
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,040
Yeah, let me ask you something
for a minute, because I know you

408
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,160
had that.
You had the above ground put in

409
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,640
in Saint Thomas.
It was an on ground, so it's

410
00:20:20,120 --> 00:20:23,280
kind of in between, OK.
Yeah, basically like a.

411
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:27,160
Sunken in above.
Ground, how much did you, how

412
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,080
much did you know about that
pool?

413
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,440
Like could you open and close
that pool?

414
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,840
Oh no.
OK, good.

415
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,800
That's then I feel better.
Don't you open and close yours

416
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,040
yourself?
Me.

417
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,560
Yeah.
Yeah, of course I do.

418
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,880
I can open and close a pool.
I can do that.

419
00:20:44,120 --> 00:20:46,280
Yeah, I can open and I can close
a pool.

420
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,560
Can.
And Rachel, you grew up in Fafa

421
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,000
Ville.
You had a pool when you were a

422
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,280
kid.
Didn't you have a pool now?

423
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,960
Yes.
You went to camp for the summer.

424
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,160
OK.
Camp was not a huge expense, but

425
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,080
OK, yeah.
You did all those things?

426
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:05,160
Yeah.
I was like I had, I've had two

427
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,160
pools in my life.
I bought a house with a pool.

428
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,760
I knew nothing about pools.
I I still don't think I know

429
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,120
anything about pools.
And that's what I'm here to

430
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:19,280
discuss is that it it is nice to
have a backyard pool, except

431
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,000
it's not as nice as you think
because.

432
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,400
Please tell us why.
Well, I mean do you not have

433
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,080
issues with your pool?
I don't know.

434
00:21:28,120 --> 00:21:30,160
Jeremy does it.
Yes, exactly.

435
00:21:32,360 --> 00:21:37,120
That is exactly right.
That is exactly what I'm getting

436
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:39,080
at.
Yeah, we have had issues.

437
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,680
We've had to replace some things
and you know, there's always

438
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,840
every expense.
It is an expense.

439
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:48,600
Every year, yeah, two weeks.
So here's the thing my wife said

440
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,200
to me two weeks ago, well, let's
open the pool.

441
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,520
I was like a landing.
Let's just open the pool and you

442
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,720
open the pool well.
Like don't take to it.

443
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,200
It does take two of us to get
the cover off.

444
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,040
It's a little easier.
To help the cover.

445
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,680
To take the cover off.
That's usually when the yelling

446
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,360
and swearing happen.
Well, there's no yelling and

447
00:22:08,360 --> 00:22:09,520
swearing when we take the cover
off.

448
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,360
We get it off, it's fine.
But the issue is, and here's

449
00:22:13,360 --> 00:22:16,560
where if you want, if you have a
pool in your backyard, if you're

450
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,400
good with pools, I have a friend
who's good with pools, thank

451
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,560
God, because I, I rely on this
guy.

452
00:22:22,120 --> 00:22:24,680
I'm texting him all 'cause I
haven't got a clue what I'm

453
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,320
doing.
And yet, yes, I can open it,

454
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,600
Yes, I could close it, that's
amazing.

455
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,640
But opening means nothing.
Now you gotta, when I open my

456
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:39,000
pool, honestly it it's as green
as my grass and I look at it and

457
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,600
go, well now what do I do?
I throw.

458
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:45,960
Every year it's been.
A long time, I throw a little

459
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,880
shock in there, I'll throw some
shock in and then it becomes

460
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,920
less green.
And then there's a lot of

461
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,960
vacuuming involved and then
there's, and then there's all of

462
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:59,240
this that's involved.
And, and, and I say to my wife,

463
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,840
well, you know, when I opened
the pool, I got all of this

464
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,920
stuff to deal with.
Yeah, well, let's just open it.

465
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,560
So it's OK for her, 'cause all
she has to do is help me take

466
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,600
the cover off.
And then we look at it and it is

467
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:15,160
as green as my lawn and I go so
the.

468
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:16,840
The day she.
Wanted.

469
00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:20,320
To the day she wanted us to open
the pool was a Sunday and I said

470
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:25,120
can we just wait till tomorrow?
Tomorrow's supposed to be warm,

471
00:23:25,120 --> 00:23:29,600
can we do it tomorrow?
And she goes OK it nothing.

472
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,000
It's still going to be the same
tomorrow as it is today.

473
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:37,000
I said yes, but I need to
prepare myself so I don't sleep

474
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,720
that night.
Hasn't he learned by now that

475
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,600
Dave can't do anything
immediately?

476
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,200
No, well, I don't.
He has to think about things for

477
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,120
a good long time before anything
happens.

478
00:23:48,120 --> 00:23:51,000
A decision is made.
The older I get, the more

479
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:55,720
anxiety I get because I'm very I
don't want the reason I don't

480
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,280
want to open the pool because I
don't want to see what it looks

481
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,720
like.
Yeah, I don't want to know what

482
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:05,000
what thing or things are broken
this year, and so far there have

483
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,960
been several.
See.

484
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,080
Oh, I don't know.
Like if you don't have a pool,

485
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,000
no one cares.
I mean, it's just there are

486
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,480
little things.
I had a pool, I bought a pool,

487
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:20,720
didn't know anything about
pools.

488
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,120
Several people taught me a few
things but I still suck at it.

489
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,440
And in those days I could open a
pool but there's no way I was

490
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,400
closing a pool.
But now I can do both.

491
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,640
I've advanced to where I can do
both.

492
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,280
But we also now have advanced
with our pools.

493
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:41,400
I have a salt water pool.
It just means you use pool salt

494
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,960
to create chlorine blah blah
blah blah blah.

495
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,240
Keeps your pool going.
All of that stuff.

496
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,160
Nobody told me that there was
going to be a full on computer

497
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,400
and a motherboard and all of
this stuff that I have no idea

498
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,680
what it is.
So the other day, you know, I

499
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,680
finally it's the pool's no
longer green.

500
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:05,760
I have it to the point where
it's no longer green and I'm

501
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,160
going to put some salt in the
pool.

502
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:11,480
So I put the salt in the pool
and then I switch on my computer

503
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:16,080
motherboard generator and then
all it says is no flow.

504
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:21,040
I'm like, OK, oh boy, it's been
many, many years with this pool.

505
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,360
What the hell does that mean?
I.

506
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,960
Know there's always a new issue.
Yeah.

507
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,520
So I text my friend, he goes,
oh, you need this and you need

508
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,480
that.
And how much is one of those?

509
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,160
A couple $100?
I don't want to order that

510
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,120
anyway so I put that in but then
I put it in wrong and I'm

511
00:25:39,120 --> 00:25:40,840
texting him.
It still doesn't work.

512
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,000
So I finally I got a text back
from him and I said I said to

513
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,280
him boy I'm really thankful that
you helped me.

514
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,040
All that stuff.
He goes anytime.

515
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,960
I'm a little busy right now but
if we can do it like this then

516
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,840
it saves me some time and gets
you educated for the future lol.

517
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:00,520
So I'm not educated for the
future.

518
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,680
I have no idea what I'm doing
for him.

519
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,480
It's just because there's new
issues that pop up and then you

520
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,040
have to figure out, OK, what's
that?

521
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,760
But once you eventually figure
out what like, OK, this piece

522
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,520
does this, it's kind of common
sense to walk through like, oh,

523
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,880
that works like this.
So then this works like this and

524
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,720
it's kind of to a.
Point, though, because Dave is

525
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,400
demonstrating that that only
goes so far, and then something

526
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,240
else happens and you still don't
know what the hell you.

527
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,560
Have to learn what?
Goes wrong and then and then

528
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,800
he'll say, oh, well, that's a
different problem.

529
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,680
You, you might need a new salt
cell or you might need this or

530
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,120
you might need that.
So here's the thing.

531
00:26:39,120 --> 00:26:42,600
Once you get the pool and, and
this is what happens at my place

532
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,280
now because you have two younger
kids, Rachel, so I'm sure and

533
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,640
Jeremy does all the work and you
don't do anything.

534
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,800
Maybe you help them with the
cover?

535
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:52,480
Yeah, I do help.
But yeah, exactly.

536
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,800
So I get that pool.
I mean, I'm on, I vacuum

537
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,320
everyday.
I'm scooping stuff out, you

538
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:00,760
know, like I'm scooping stuff
out.

539
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,000
I do all of that stuff.
The pool looks good.

540
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:07,280
It gets warm, the weather's hot.
How many times do I go in the

541
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:11,280
pool?
10 and when I go in the pool, I

542
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:16,800
go in Pool off and I get right
back out and my wife does the

543
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,760
same thing.
My daughter, on the other hand,

544
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:23,800
who used to swim in the pool all
the time, never goes in the.

545
00:27:24,360 --> 00:27:25,480
Pool.
Like.

546
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:27,840
Never.
So you're at the stage where

547
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,440
you're not really using it
anymore.

548
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:31,880
No, but it looks good.
It looks.

549
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,400
Nice, yeah.
It's nice to have open to me.

550
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,720
You have a granddaughter that
might like to come and swim in

551
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,320
the summer.
She's not big on swimming.

552
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,440
She comes we're.
In it all the time.

553
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,960
We're in it every day after
school, after all the summer,

554
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:48,920
all summer long.
Every weekend.

555
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,560
We sit back.
Like if somebody invites me away

556
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,080
for the weekend, takes me away
from my pool, I'm angry.

557
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,280
I just want to be near my pool,
right?

558
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,720
Unless you have a pool and then
I'll go because my backyard, my

559
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,360
pool, that's my cottage.
I don't have a cottage.

560
00:28:02,360 --> 00:28:03,680
I don't have to pay for a
cottage.

561
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,120
That's my expense.
That's my cottage.

562
00:28:06,120 --> 00:28:08,160
That's my you know, cottages are
expensive.

563
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,720
Cottages need maintenance.
Pools are expensive.

564
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,920
They need maintenance, right?
That's my cottage.

565
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,600
That's where I want to be.
We've set it up the way we like

566
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,560
your.
Cottage your, your pool, your

567
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,560
cottage, that thing.
Don't take me away from it when

568
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,520
it needs something, if something
goes wrong, when it needs

569
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,200
something, if something needs to
be fixed, do you you just go

570
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,840
back downstairs and go, well,
that'll get fixed.

571
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,400
That's not my problem.
Jeremy, there's something wrong.

572
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,480
Well, no.
Usually we both have to solve

573
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,280
that problem because Jeremy
goes, figures out that there is

574
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,240
a problem, comes in very angry,
and then I have to look up, OK,

575
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,360
how do we fix this because he's
too angry.

576
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,760
That's my wife's answer to
everything.

577
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,720
When the pool, when there's
something wrong with the pool.

578
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,360
Well, have you googled it?
Yes.

579
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:58,360
I've googled it.
Yeah, it must be nice to have a

580
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,600
pool.
Yeah, and not particularly.

581
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,200
See, This is why my kids are
hassling us to where'd you go to

582
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:04,920
pool again?
And I said, first of all, do you

583
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,520
know how much it cost now?
No.

584
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,280
And second of all, This is why
we bought the little hot tub,

585
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,240
the salt water hot tub for way
less maintenance.

586
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,040
Yes, exactly right.
You tell them.

587
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:15,720
Come see Uncle Dave.
He'll tell them what they.

588
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,480
Didn't need Uncle Dave.
You don't need a pool you.

589
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:19,920
Don't swim in your pool though,
at least.

590
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,680
Well, you can come over.
That'd be good.

591
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,520
Somebody use it?
Hope you don't run out of food.

592
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,760
This due to underwhelming
demand, a podcast, the podcast

00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,600

Marble slab.

time is a.

Yeah, nice to know.

00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:43,040

whole cake in fact, with the

610
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,360

E-mail underwhelming.ca.

612
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,360
Hey, you can go to, if you get
your podcast on Apple, you can

613
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,160
always leave a review.
Do that.

614
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:12,560
Yes you can.
Please.

615
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,800
You can do that directly through
underwhelming.ca as well, also

616
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:20,440
on Spotify, and I believe we've
had a couple reviews lately.

617
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,080
One is from Emily, who did it
straight up through

618
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,120
underwhelming.ca.
Nice.

619
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,920
Five stars.
We won't take anything less.

620
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,160
So.
So if you're thinking of three,

621
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:37,120
just don't bother, OK?
But Emily says this is one of my

622
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,880
top podcasts.
One of my top podcasts.

623
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,120
I have to muffle my laughter
when I listen at work.

624
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:48,800
Dave, Rachel and Foreman have a
special banter and always funny

625
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,280
stories.
Segments like headlines, Good

626
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,320
Idea, Bad Idea and Rachelle Fun
facts are an added bonus.

627
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,280
I wish the episodes were longer.
Oh, thanks.

628
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,600
For doing the podcast.
Oh, you really don't?

629
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,480
Thank you so much.
That's nice.

630
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:03,520
Thank you.
Thank you.

631
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,040
That's.
Awesome, amazing.

632
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:09,320
We have another review and this
one is a six out of five rating.

633
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,160
I like that too.
I know, exceptional.

634
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,760
I don't know who it's from, but.
Trudy on Apple Podcasts.

635
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,720
Oh, is it OK?
Well, then you can see it.

636
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,560
I guess this because it came

637
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,680
This podcast deserves a six out
of five rating.

638
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,800
It's the most relatable and
hilarious podcast you didn't

639
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,440
know you needed.
Thank you for continuing to

640
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:33,640
bless us with comedic presence.
Well, thank you, Trudy.

641
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,160
That's so kind.
Podcast.

642
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,680
You didn't know you need it.
Yeah.

643
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,680
That will shove it in your face
anyway.

644
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,080
Right, that's right.
I think what was the you had it

645
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,720
one time, Dave was the podcast
you didn't know, you didn't

646
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,520
need.
It that's exactly.

647
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,600
Right.
Yeah, Well, and Trudy has

648
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:53,520
actually sent us several other
messages as well.

649
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,680
We read some of them last week.
We have so many more because

650
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,800
truly, he's just barreling
through episodes here.

651
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,840
Great.
So on the topic of Christmas

652
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,080
gifts, Christmas.
Gifts.

653
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:06,080
Oh my.
Goodness.

654
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,560
Yeah, and the nonsense husbands
have been getting their wives.

655
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,840
This is what my husband and I
started doing to avoid it.

656
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,040
We shop for ourselves, get what
we want, wrap it up and put it

657
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,600
under the tree.
The surprise factor is still

658
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,400
there when I see him react to
what I got myself.

659
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:26,040
And bonus, if you've shopped for
yourself earlier enough, you've

660
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,280
forgotten what you got yourself
by Christmas.

661
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,960
And it's still a surprise for
you, too.

662
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,200
So who wraps them then?
The other.

663
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,520
Person to wrap it yourself.
Oh, you wrap it yourself, so

664
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,720
it's a surprise for the other
person of what you're getting.

665
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,680
Exactly, yes.
I see.

666
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,120
OK.
Which is fun.

667
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:42,360
I don't.
Really care?

668
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,600
I don't really.
Care what I get?

669
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:45,600
I don't know, I.
Don't.

670
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,840
I don't know.
That wouldn't work for me.

671
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,320
But yeah, I mean whatever works.
Yeah.

672
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,280
Are you curious as to whether or
not my Mother's Day gift went

673
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,120
over well?
I actually was going to ask you

674
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,880
about that, yes.
So you bought your wife some

675
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,960
pots and pans and we were all
very curious as to whether she

676
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:03,280
would.
Like them sonnet?

677
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,280
I mean she no doubts that's what
she asked for.

678
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,320
She picked them out so I'm
assuming she likes them.

679
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,280
Does she like them?
Yes.

680
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,320
We haven't actually got them
out-of-the-box.

681
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,320
Yeah, but yes, she that's
exactly what she wanted.

682
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,600
She was happy to get it.
It also came with flowers in a

683
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,120
car.
OK, good.

684
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,159
And I got her some coffee
because we are really, I don't

685
00:34:24,159 --> 00:34:25,760
know, we're particular about her
coffee.

686
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,199
And so plus the pots, which it
turns out she had already

687
00:34:30,199 --> 00:34:32,800
discovered I'd bought several
days earlier because I didn't

688
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,360
hide them very well, because
what?

689
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,080
What's she doing in the furnace
room?

690
00:34:40,199 --> 00:34:41,679
The switch to turn it on and
off.

691
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,560
Right.
Yeah, she already knew.

692
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,320
I mean, she already knew because
she sent it to me.

693
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,000
So why wouldn't I buy them?
Sure.

694
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,800
Yes.
So you did give her other

695
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,120
things.
Flowers.

696
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,280
Yes.
OK, that's good.

697
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,760
Very good.
So it was a good Mother's Day

698
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:56,639
then?
Yes.

699
00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:00,600
OK, other than it was spent
cleaning up from the 1012 year

700
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,400
olds.
Well, that's problematic.

701
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,760
Problematic.
That was very brave of you to

702
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,560
have that many kids.
Oh, I saw your your wife looked

703
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,360
delighted with her pots and
pans.

704
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,240
She was, yes, Good.
I'd really like.

705
00:35:13,240 --> 00:35:16,120
To see Rachel being gifted with
pots and pans.

706
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:21,280
No, Jeremy knows better.
We would just go to Canadian

707
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:25,360
Tire on a Saturday and buy them.
Canadian maybe, Maybe Home

708
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,200
Depot, maybe bed bath and
beyond.

709
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:28,360
Don't know.
Don't know if you have enough

710
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:29,600
time.
Yeah.

711
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,680
Nice little Saturday.
Nice, nice Saturday outing and

712
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:40,160
we'd all go together as a
family, which gets grading so,

713
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:47,440
but we all go as a unit, all
four of us, everywhere.

714
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,240
Rest of your messages, Trudy
next week.

715
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,320
I think you might be overdoing
it, Dad.

716
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,200
Russ when was the last time I
overdid anything?
