Guys, we're just rolling along like 13 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 1: we just don't stop here. This is gonna be our year. 14 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 1: You think, no, do you have like a word of 15 00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: the year. 16 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: He told me your word last time, and I've already 17 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: forgotten it. Hold on a second. It was a constitutionality, 18 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 2: was it was route right, rule of law, due process. 19 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 2: I could think of all kinds of words. It was 20 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 2: a contentment. 21 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: Okay, that's good too. Yeah, yeah, I mean I don't 22 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: know how constitutional it is. Yeah, we could do we 23 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: could have some funny stuff if we made. If you 24 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:24,639 Speaker 1: and I had time, we'd make all kinds of creative, 25 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: funny things. But one would be choosing a word of 26 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: the year for all kinds of different things, like it's 27 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: in society. 28 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 2: Or like using your word of the year as a 29 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 2: weapon against somebody else in your relationship. I'm just getting 30 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: a real word of the year, and it's timeliness. 31 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: You're like looking at your wife as she gets ready. 32 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: You know, it's passive aggressive, it's don't be around toxic people. Yeah, 33 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: I feel like this year, I really want to remove 34 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: toxic people who extract energy. A lot of people are 35 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: a drain on me, and I just want to get 36 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: people I've been with for years. You're like, I'm the 37 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: only one you're ever around. Yeah, there's just some people 38 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to It's why we were listening. We 39 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: were coming home from volleyball last night and said, he 40 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: has a podcast she listens to, Okay, and so she 41 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: lets me listen with her, which is a great honor. 42 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: You know, he's seventeen year I'm sure she's her whole 43 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: world there and I don't know the name of it. Really, 44 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: you're such a great listener. You're just the best dad. 45 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: Because I can't really see. I could just see on 46 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: the Apple stupid. I don't know, but it's this. I 47 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: know it's a female. She's just in her picture. There's 48 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: not a lot of clothes. Oh no, but she's young. Okay, 49 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: But I really like a lot of the stuff she's 50 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: saying is very it's very pop culture therapy kind of thing. 51 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: It's very believe in yourself and don't let people run 52 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: over you. But if you were listen all the way through, 53 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: like she talks about God some and I mean she 54 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: may cuss of mind as well, just like us, you 55 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, But. 56 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 2: She's talking about at least with the pop culture therapy stuff. 57 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 2: Is she talking about accountability as well she does? Or 58 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 2: is it just like everyone's a problem being. 59 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: On the episode last night got a little bit don't 60 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: let talks that people run over you kind of thing, 61 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: And so afterwards I was like, maybe just give without me, 62 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: just give some context. Let's talk about in a real relationship, 63 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: you know, because words like toxic in words like boundaries 64 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: and things can be really used as if no one's 65 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: ever allowed to have a fault around you, right, it's 66 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: kind of de humanizing, right, so like I know why, 67 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: and I think in the extremes of abuse or other things, 68 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: you know, but even the word abuse, she used that 69 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: a lot. It was like, okay, let's talk about what 70 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: really constitutes abuse the relationship. It's not just your uncomfortable 71 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: or even you have constant friction necessarily you know, someone 72 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: not listening well or whatever, like before you throw that 73 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: term on there, I can't tell you what that term 74 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: is necessarily for you. But we've kind of come to 75 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: the place where we can use those terms because we 76 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: say I get to decide for me. Then now we 77 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: don't have a standard, yeah, which which if you're an 78 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: actual theory circles, there's usually a standard for that. They 79 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: would go, yeah, we wouldn't classify that ash or doesn't 80 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: fall into our book of It's like burned. 81 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 2: You would if you go to like somebody, you say, like, 82 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: I've burned my hand, Like burns have degrees, right that 83 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: we've decided our degrees, right, you don't get to say, like, 84 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 2: but it feels like a third degree burned. They go, 85 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: it's not a third degree burn though, yeah, but it 86 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 2: feels for me. It is for me it's a third 87 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: degree burn. You goes, this isn't this is an abrasion. 88 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: That best. Well it was interesting though, I mean, but 89 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: I also like that she's listening to something because she 90 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: I want my kid to have. 91 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: Well, they're not just she's always so it's just like 92 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: an entertainment hole. It's just like a whatever, yeah, something 93 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 2: just to clock out. She's thinking about her thoughts. 94 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,119 Speaker 1: That's okay. One one episode she was like, hey, listen, 95 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: I'll have these friends who, you know, act like they 96 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: don't want to be their parents anymore. Their parents are 97 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: the worst. I'm always like, you need to still listen 98 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: to your parents, like you're you know, like, come on, man, 99 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: hold on. You know I've been paying this lady. Yeah, 100 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: come on, it will send you a hundred bucks if 101 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: you'll say this until the podcast. But I don't know. 102 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, but my word of the year, I don't know 103 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 2: what it would be. I'm trying to think. I don't 104 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: really set resolutions anymore, and I probably should because I 105 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: think it shows we throw it out, you know, you 106 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 2: throw out the whole thing. You go like, oh, it's 107 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: just something you're going to give up on, and people 108 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 2: do it and they freak out and they and but 109 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 2: there is something to it, like setting a goal or 110 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 2: saying like I'm going to challenge myself this way this year. 111 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: I need to read more. Probably, Yeah, it's I just 112 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: learned to read with anything at all. Really, It's very 113 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: like I think we used to quote many years ago 114 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: in the podcast about some guy who doesn't set yearly 115 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: resolutions but set sets daily resolutions. You know, Oh is 116 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: that right? Yeah, so that's an interesting idea of a 117 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: daily we should be setting more. But I actually am. 118 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: I'm not anti resolution. You know, I've been through what 119 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: I've been pastoring twenty something twenty five years now, and 120 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: there comes a place where at first you're doing all 121 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: these New Year's resolution type sermons, and then you get 122 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: skeptical because you've done it so long, and then you're 123 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: kind of poopooing all of it right, and then I'm 124 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: kind of I've been to the cycle. Now are going, well, 125 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: there's a benefit now you're back. There's a time in 126 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: life right where it's beneficial to or even a time 127 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: in the year it's beneficial to recognize. 128 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 2: Well, it's like taking stock of yourself. Yeah, is always good. Probably, 129 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 2: But I will say to this and We talked about 130 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 2: the therapy thing earlier, but there was a clip where 131 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 2: a guy talked about how like therapy, language and people 132 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: are in all this therapy, but are we better off 133 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 2: for it? 134 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 1: And then somebody was making the point of like, is 135 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: it healthy to spend this much time thinking about yourself? Yeah? 136 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 2: And I think that's why I like, if we just 137 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 2: make a therapy is like a recovery thing of like 138 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 2: I need to heal from this or I need to 139 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 2: maintain my mental health by going to therapy. 140 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: But if it becomes just like. 141 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: In other words, it becomes so normalized as just like, 142 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 2: well everybody goes to therapy and it's just this thing 143 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 2: where like we pay a person to listen to us 144 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 2: talk about ourselves for an hour. And if it just 145 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 2: becomes that like this exercise is just like vomiting out 146 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 2: your ID on somethe I. 147 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: Prefer a mix because there's two different fields here. I 148 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: prefer a mix of therapy and coaching for that very reason. Right, 149 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: So it's gonna like you have some accountability building. They're 150 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: gonna say, hey, maybe you should try to do this differently, 151 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: because often therapists won't tell you. 152 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: Oh no, I know my brother talked about that, like 153 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 2: he has a counselor, and he said, he'll go, like, 154 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 2: but what what should I do? 155 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: And they'll go, I don't really do that. Yeah, and 156 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: he really frustrates him. It's hard, yeah, and he'll go. 157 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 2: But at some point, I think at some point the 158 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: guy was like, yeah, I would do this, Like he 159 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: gave up. He finally was like, you should do this. 160 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: I'll tell my therapists, but like, look, you know, if 161 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: you see me doing something totally crazy or off, like 162 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: I need you to speak up, they'll just listen to me, 163 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: like tell me you know. 164 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: Well, and sometimes that's what you're paying for, right if 165 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 2: you go to a therapist, aren't you sort of paying 166 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 2: for that?

And then but some of the 500 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: artists and people at the table who were younger, who 501 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: were in our world, you know, they were very they 502 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: really wrestled with it. There was like a but I 503 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: want to be I want my music or my art 504 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: or whatever to go, you know. And I was like, 505 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: well that it can. Well I'm thinking like, but if 506 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: you were, if you were, I forgot who I named. 507 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: You know, there's certain people they're so big that everything 508 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: they do, right, I think I named Nate. Whatever Nate 509 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: does now is I mean, you know he could bring 510 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: in and get away from it. 511 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 2: The scale of his fame has like there's a scale 512 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: that you get to where the pain in the butt 513 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 2: of being that big, right, I wonder if the money 514 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: they're giving you is enough for that pain in the. 515 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,479 Speaker 1: Butt and think about how how far and fast you 516 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 1: can fall? 517 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, because now you're now the sniper fire. Bob Carlisle 518 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 2: said that Bob Carlile. 519 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: Was just this Christian artist who was in bands and 520 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: he did a head of solo career and then he 521 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: did Butterfly Kisses and it became like an international small 522 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: and he said it was one of the most miserable 523 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: times in his life. He said, the sniper fire, when 524 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: you're on the top of the mountain is way more 525 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: intense interesting because you become a target. 526 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 2: You become like you go from like who is this guy? 527 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 2: To like, let's get this guy? Yeah, really really quick. 528 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 2: I don't want to get I don't ever want to 529 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 2: get to the let's get. 530 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: This guy now. I would have wanted that when I 531 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 1: was younger. Now I'm like, no, no, there's because you 532 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: think you will be able to handle well, look, if 533 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: they wrote you a big enough check, you can handle it, 534 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: and he'll just buy a bulletproof vest. You go. No, 535 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 1: I don't want the sniper fire. I just want to because. 536 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 2: Again, I'm a comedian, so my weakness is I want 537 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 2: to be liked by everybody. Yeah, I craft an act 538 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 2: to please a crowd of people, so it's hard not to. 539 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 2: How do you how do you break yourself from people 540 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 2: pleasing when that's the job. 541 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 1: So I don't want sniper fire. I want to be loved, which, 542 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: by the way, I had to learn the hard way 543 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: that that is not the job when you're a pastor 544 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: and the contrary to popular belief. So that's a good thing. 545 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: When you've learned that, it's definitely. 546 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 2: Good that you've finally figured it out because we don't 547 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 2: love you. 548 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: And I'm not one of those guys Like I watched 549 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: those of these videos. I love it because it's the guy. 550 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: It's it's like a camera on just on a face, 551 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 1: and then he's watching the video like he's there, and 552 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 1: it's always some pastor do something crazy, you know, and 553 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: it comes back to him and he's kind of got 554 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 1: these doe eyes, you know, and that's why. Or it's 555 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: the or it's the caption of the day you bring 556 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 1: your friend to church. You know, I think nothing weird 557 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: what happened kind of thing, you know, which for us 558 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: covering Pentecostal kids, that's a real Oh wait, Please don't 559 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: please don't let sister Shirley do the dance. Please don't 560 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 1: let you don't bring them on Sunay night. Don't bring 561 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: a friend to Sunday night church. 562 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 2: Are there Sunday Nights still going on? Probably out there 563 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 2: somewhere in rural areas. Anyway, I feel like I've derailed 564 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 2: your quote. So you never got to the quote because 565 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 2: I stopped you at a W pink And the fact 566 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 2: that he became a bigger name after he was gone. 567 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: Sorry, John, No, I like that that's question. Instead of 568 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: a river, God often gives us a brook which may 569 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: be running today and dried up tomorrow, why to teach 570 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: us not to rest in our blessings and the blesser himself? 571 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: Pretty good? Yeah? That brook thing really speaks to me, 572 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: always has ever since college. I remember when we thought 573 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: about leaving the first church that you and I were 574 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: volunteering in. Yeah, and I felt like I had like 575 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: this kind of holy spirit moment because I'd never left 576 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 1: a church before I left college. I was raised in 577 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,719 Speaker 1: one church my whole life to go to college. And 578 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: now but that the pastor guy's quite frankly, yeah, it 579 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: was an untenable situation. He just begins saying some absolutely 580 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: not just theologically insane things, but probably you know, yeah, 581 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: clinically insane. Yeah. And so, but I still was wrestling 582 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: because I mean, I'm a loyalist, you know. And and 583 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: so when plus we're raising that thing of like this 584 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: is the man of God, I didn't have that feeling 585 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: as much as just I don't know, like it. 586 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 2: It feels like it feels like you're losing. 587 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: To walk away. 588 00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 2: You're still you're admitting a little bit. 589 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, And so I remember having this this I don't 590 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: know if my if our friend set it to us, 591 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: I can't remember. On we were on a band trip. 592 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: Our friend has passed away now Brian, or if it 593 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: just came to me, I can't remember. But somewhere in 594 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: there there was a discussion and it was the idea. 595 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: The idea was I thought of Elijah. And during the famine, 596 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: Elijah goes to this brook. God leads into this brook 597 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: and the ravens bring him food every day and he 598 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: drinks from the brook by this little cave, I think, 599 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: if I remember, and nothing fancy, just enough right, and 600 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: he lives that way for a couple of years. I 601 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: think it's I think it's a seven year famine maybe, 602 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: And I should have looked up the story. Guys, I'm sorry. 603 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: I haven't toeln that one a while. And then one 604 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: day the brook dries up. And I think about that 605 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: moment all the time. How the brook drives up for us, guys, 606 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: it just does. There are just moments when a thing 607 00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: worked and then it just doesn't. It was one of 608 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: the it was this very jarring thing for me in life. 609 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 1: I remember it happening in youth ministry. I told someone 610 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: the other day, I mean, I feel like PJ had 611 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: a job he could do well for a long long time. 612 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 1: It could connect with teenagers and do this stuff. And 613 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 1: then I remember the day I stood up to speak 614 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: on stage and I did not have them like I 615 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: used to. They had phones in their hands, and I 616 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 1: was like, this is different. It just changed tonight, everything 617 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 1: just changed. And other days when things that used to 618 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: work just don't, and the brook drives up, and it's 619 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: very it's a very betraying feeling of like you don't 620 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: realize you're like, God, why would you do this to me? 621 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: Why would you? You know? And then the story and 622 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: I remember that thing about leaving the church. You know, 623 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: it was the idea of, hey, it's not it's not 624 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: that anything's wrong. It just means there's something next to come. 625 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: Because in the story, Elijah then goes and finds the 626 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: widow who's about to use the last bit of oil. 627 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: She has to make these this bread or she calls 628 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: the cake, and she's going to feed it to her son, 629 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: a little boy, and then they're just going to die 630 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: of starvation, and Elijah convinces her and I hope this 631 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: is Elijah, and elijhah, I think it was Elijah. And 632 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: he convinces her, like, hey, make it for me instead, 633 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: and she does out of faith. And then the oil 634 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: never runs out and he begins to live with the 635 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: widow and her son for years now. So God provided 636 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: through the oil instead of through the brook now and 637 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: provided for two other people. And then when the sun dies, 638 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: Elijah raises him from the dead. So he's also there 639 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: for this great tragedy to not only help them survive. 640 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 2: But she wouldn't if the Brook hadn't ride out, he 641 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 2: would have been forced into that situation. 642 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good stuff. So the idea of if you're out, 643 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: I mean, guys, I mean, I'm just being as real 644 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: as I can with you. And Johnny knows a lot 645 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: of my personal life. I'm not going to go into details, 646 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: but there have been some Brook drying up things in 647 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 1: the last several years that are just hard, and they're 648 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: hard and Lord and I talk about them a lot, 649 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: and things I can't explain. That's the thing Elijah in 650 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: the moment did not have an explanation, just hey, trust 651 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: me and go to the next thing. But when you're 652 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: used to one thing working and it's from God's goodness 653 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: it is, I think you do begin to rest and 654 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: the blessings and there's nothing wrong with that, but they change. 655 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 1: And there's one thing in life I don't like. It's 656 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: the idea that I can't predict or find the guarantees 657 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: right of what's going to happen forever in this life. 658 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: I even thought this morning not to wax eloquent, Johnny. 659 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: It's not very eloquent, but it's long. If that helps, 660 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: I thought about and that's your favorite I thought about 661 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 1: like when God created time. When God created time, it 662 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: put every bit of the angst possible when time is 663 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: combined with sin into our life. Because now, since God 664 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: exists outside of time and within time, but he's not 665 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: confined by it, then everything that feels like time to 666 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: us feels like nothing to him. So it doesn't matter 667 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: if it's a thousand years or ten seconds. We always 668 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: feel like we're waiting for something that he never feels 669 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,479 Speaker 1: like he's waiting for because it's as if it already 670 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: happened to him. And so like that, I think it's 671 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: that it's always about the waiting and the unknown that's 672 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 1: the issue. But hey, if you're out there today and 673 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: you feel like your brook's ride up, it doesn't mean 674 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: God's abandoned you. It doesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't mean 675 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: that God for good. It doesn't mean he's like, oh man, 676 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: I should have that's right. I forgot to make sure 677 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: the brook didn't like it's always this like why are 678 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: you sleep at the wheel? And I quoted John Foreman 679 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: in a sermon late the other day. I don't know 680 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: if you were there for that one where he says, 681 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: where's God out in the darkness? Because the voices in 682 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: my head aren't talking honest. They say, maybe you made 683 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: his hand for Goddess, but that ain't you. That's the 684 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: bridge or the third little pre course of this song, 685 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: and that gives me lame. The voices in my head 686 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: don't talk honest, because what I'm hearing is maybe just 687 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: forgot me. Yeah you know. But hey, God will lead 688 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: us to the The blesser is still with us, regardless 689 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: of the change and the blessings of the brooks. So 690 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: there you go, John, that's good stuff. 691 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 2: Hey, w pink pink, all pink hands in the center. 692 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: Girls. 693 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 2: It's like a volleyball cheer that you guys can try it. John, 694 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 2: let's do my singment. Let's start with Johnny's old jokes. 695 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 2: We call a joke about that. 696 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: John. 697 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 2: My mother always said, the best way to a man's 698 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 2: heart is through his stomach. Lovely woman, terrible surgeon. 699 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: That's good. 700 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 2: Lost a lot of lost, a lot of patience like that, 701 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 2: John went. That reminded me of this one. When one 702 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 2: door closes, another one opens. Other than that, it's a 703 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 2: great car. That's such a great joke. 704 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: John. 705 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 2: Three brothers, aged ninety two, ninety four and ninety six 706 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,239 Speaker 2: live in a house together. One night, the ninety six 707 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 2: year old draws a bath, puts his foot in, and pauses. 708 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 2: He yells down the stairs. Was I getting in or 709 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 2: out of the bath? The ninety four year old yells back, 710 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'll come up and see. 711 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: He starts up the stairs and pauses, then yells, was 712 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 1: I going up the stairs or coming down? 713 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 2: The ninety two year old was sitting at the kitchen 714 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 2: table having coffee, listening to his brothers. He shakes his 715 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: head and says, I sheer up. I never get that. Forgiveful. 716 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 2: He knocks on wood for good luck. Then he yells, 717 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 2: I'll come up and help both of you. As soon 718 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 2: as I see who's at the door. 719 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: I knew that was coming. Old people, guys, the best. 720 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 2: Let's do this week in history, John, we call it 721 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 2: talk about then. 722 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 1: John. 723 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 2: This week nineteen seventy three, a car reputed to be 724 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 2: Adolph Hitler's car is auctioned off for one hundred. 725 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: And fifty three thousand. First of all, who's buying Hitler's car? Exactly? Who? 726 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: Hitler's car survived the bombing of Germany? This sad ground. 727 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: He had an underground parking garage roight beside the bunker. 728 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 2: This set the record for the highest amount ever paid 729 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 2: for a car at auction. I'm sure it's been broken 730 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 2: since then. This was seventy three. I mean, that's a 731 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 2: lot of money in today's money. Seventy three hundred fiftyt 732 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 2: that's probably close to over half million dollars. However, it 733 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 2: was discovered later, like you said, that this was not 734 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 2: Hitler's car, but belonged to Gustav Mannerheim, President of Finland 735 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 2: nineteen forty four to forty six. The car was a 736 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 2: nineteen forty Mercedes seven to seventy K two hundred and 737 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 2: thirty horsepower armored vehicle, which I guess was what led 738 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 2: the scammer to be like, this has got to be 739 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 2: a Hitler's car. 740 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: It's armored. 741 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 2: It was capable of speeds of one hundred and five 742 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,800 Speaker 2: miles per hour. Wow by those standards, because it's a 743 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 2: nineteen forty Mercedes. 744 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you have a lot of questions. I have 745 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,440 Speaker 1: a lot of things. Yeah.

It is. 767 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: It is strange to think like the presence that he 768 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: commanded being you know what he was.

I know? And you're still fight a battle. 787 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: You don't even have to come on, you just need 788 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 1: the news. You're rut here. 789 00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 2: You need to read the Treaty Aghent or whatever, any 790 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 2: of the Gospel of John. That's our Treaty of Ghent. 791 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 2: In a lot of ways, this was the most lopsided 792 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 2: victory for the US of the war, which surprised me. 793 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 2: Future US President Andrew Jackson led a mish mash for 794 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 2: about forty five hundred soldiers, locals, and even a pirate 795 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 2: crew of John Lafitte against eight thousand British regulars, So 796 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 2: forty five hundred to eight thousand media was the most 797 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,879 Speaker 2: lopsided victory for the US. The battle lasted about half hour, 798 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,280 Speaker 2: with British troops losing seven hundred killed, fourteen hundred wounded, 799 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 2: and five hundred prisoners taken, including three generals and seven colonels. 800 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 2: The American troops only lost seven killed and six wounded. Yeah, 801 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 2: this was we doing that they weren't doing. 802 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,919 Speaker 1: What's crazy is I mean the thing that battle could 803 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: have not happened if they would have had the news. 804 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: But that battle changed the whole course of American history 805 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: because this propelled Jackson into absolute. 806 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a pretty wild victory to have, I mean, 807 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 2: and it didn't need to happen by the eighteen thirties. 808 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: I mean again, this American hero is the president that 809 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,720 Speaker 1: the populous president that changed the course of the age 810 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 1: a little bit for them. So yeah, John. 811 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 2: This week nineteen forty two, the first emergency use of 812 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 2: an airplane ejection seat by a German test pilot as 813 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 2: his plane was about to crash. German test pilot Helmet Shink, 814 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 2: which is the most German name I've ever heard, except 815 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 2: for Adolf Hitler. Helmet Schenk, was testing a Heinkel HG 816 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,399 Speaker 2: two eighty prototype jet engine fighter. It was the first 817 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 2: plane outfitted with an ejection seat. The ejection seat was 818 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 2: powered by compressed air. While testing the plane, Shink's control 819 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 2: surfaces iced up and he lost control of the plane, 820 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 2: so he ejected, making him the first person to do 821 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 2: so emergent situation. Shank's ejection was successful and he survived 822 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:42,720 Speaker 2: the incident. 823 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: Wow.

Yeah, 836 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: maybe with the ship's on fire. 837 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 2: Yeah you need something, that's but yeah, so but the 838 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 2: end and planes are like no, but I wonder what 839 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 2: the thing is where they go. Look, this is a 840 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 2: lot of money for trusting you with. Don't just be 841 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: willy nilly and make sure you know where that button is. 842 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,400 Speaker 2: You're not accidentally hit.

I don't even remember this story. 860 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 2: We're five years apart, but I remember this story. US 861 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 2: President George H. W. Bush Senior vomited in the lap 862 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 2: of the Japanese Prime Minister and collapsed to the floor. 863 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 2: He had ignored a physician's warning to stay in bed. 864 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: Do you have like a. 865 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,360 Speaker 2: Summit or whatever, and you do the big dinner with 866 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 2: the thing and it's it's very last suffrage from you, 867 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 2: these dinners because they're they're made for press, right. So 868 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 2: he's sitting next to in the shot, and he became 869 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 2: so nauseous that he then I mean, you know, that's 870 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: the thing, when you're that sick that you can't even 871 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 2: control where the vomit's going. 872 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 1: Right, that's sick. It's really sick because normally to be 873 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: like I need to you have a countdown in your 874 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: head going off like you got five segments and you're 875 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,359 Speaker 1: gonna if you don't find a trash can eject. Yes, 876 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: but to be like that sick thing, I guess because 877 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: you talk yourself out of it. Nop gun not gun, 878 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,240 Speaker 1: and you just kind of I've tried to do a bad. 879 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 2: But not gun that wouldn't be prudent at this junket 880 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 2: and then he just put into the lap. 881 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: It's amazing that I remember Living Color did a sketch 882 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: about it. Uh, that's the so like they had an 883 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 1: Asian cast member by then, and Jim Carrey was Bush 884 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 1: and he threw up in the lap and I can't 885 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: remember what the you know, I mean, it's already its 886 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: own gag, no pun intended. It is a gag. It's 887 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: it's interesting though politically, like the fallout was not huge 888 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,800 Speaker 1: because it's almost you sympathize, Yeah, like he was sick, 889 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 1: but it is a yeah, it's true. What if it 890 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,879 Speaker 1: vomited on whatever would have been in Russia right then? Yeah, 891 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: because the wall had fallen by then, it's ninety two, 892 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 1: that would have been. I bet Boris Yeltson your Gorbachev 893 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: was Gorbachev still in ninety two? 894 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 2: But Gorbachev was an ally by then. 895 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: Is still going or had it passed to Boris? 896 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:54,320 Speaker 2: Boris Yeltsen, the most Russian name ever other than Vladimir 897 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 2: Putin probably blam Reputin's is a very like John the same. 898 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 2: This is the why did these make the list? Because 899 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,879 Speaker 2: the same week ten years later, two thousand and two, 900 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:12,320 Speaker 2: US President George Bush George w the Sun he passed 901 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 2: out after choking on a pretzel while watching a football game, 902 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 2: You're kidding. After fainting, the president tumbled to the floor 903 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 2: from a couch, bruising his lower lip and suffering an 904 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 2: abrade in the size of a half dollar on his 905 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 2: left cheek. And I don't know if we ever just 906 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 2: didn't know about it because they someone. 907 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: Come clear the obstruction and he would have died, right, 908 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 1: I guess. 909 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 2: Or maybe Barbara was there and was like sweetie, and 910 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 2: she horton, she got got in there. But then they 911 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 2: probably had a makeup guy coming because he had to 912 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 2: do a you know, a thing the next you know, 913 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 2: you got to go be around a makeup guy and 914 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 2: then he kind of fixed. So that's why it never 915 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: really we never really knew that it had happened. We had 916 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 2: a twenty four hour news cycle by then, so it 917 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,320 Speaker 2: wasn't that. Yeah, but I don't remember that being a 918 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 2: big story of like, yeah, President Bush choking on pretzels. 919 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: You know, speaking of choking, you know, I bought one 920 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 1: of those things for the kitchen, kind of making fun 921 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,839 Speaker 1: of me, the pretzel maker. It's like a suction thing. 922 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: If someone starts choking, you put it over their mouth 923 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 1: and you just pull it, really pull it right out. 924 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 1: There's an emergency Heimlick doesn't do the hemel like. It 925 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 1: just creates suction around their face and just pulls anything 926 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 1: out that's in there. So depending on how far down 927 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 1: it is in there, I wonder if you could push 928 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 1: down to maybe. 929 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 2: I wonder if that would work for like mucus if 930 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 2: you're like super sick but you can't quite cough the 931 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 2: thing up. 932 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:26,920 Speaker 1: Terrible at coughing up.

Yeah, the adrenaline. 990 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 1: My fear is I would be the guy that would 991 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 1: fail at that. Yeah. He'd be like, Oh, I thought 992 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,319 Speaker 1: you had adrenaline. No I do, but I'm super weak, 993 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 1: like I needed.

Johnny will still promise you, but don't listen. 1003 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: This is the year that those indie promises come true, though, Well, 1004 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 1: the one promise we need to follow through on. Yep, 1005 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 1: it's not really a promise yet. We need to do 1006 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: this zoo meet up with some of these patrinsy is 1007 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:30,320 Speaker 1: that we'll just start to spotting stuff. I'm going to 1008 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 1: give you something for real. Oh okay, okay, there's episode 1009 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 1: four hundred coming up. Yeah, oh right, we need to 1010 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 1: look at the live event. Yes, and see we have 1011 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 1: people reached out and say they would come. Uh huh, 1012 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: but that's like, it's this is episode I don't know 1013 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,240 Speaker 1: for three eighty something, so we only fifteen or something. 1014 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 1: So it's going to be your schedule, not mine. I 1015 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:55,640 Speaker 1: travel a lot, but not like you. So we can 1016 00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: do it. So when it doesn't happen, I'm saying, we'll 1017 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,440 Speaker 1: still be able to squarely put the blame one. That 1018 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 1: blame shifting is very important. It's been toxic for me. 1019 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:05,759 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, and I need boundaries. 1020 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that feels that's a proper response. 1021 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: I deserve this. No one can argue with therapy language. 1022 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 1: That's what we're for therapy. By the way, we're anti therapy. 1023 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 1: We're just anti using therapy as a just language without 1024 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 1: the work or just the language to know who to 1025 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: blame and never have to work, and maybe somebody you 1026 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 1: need to didn't need to take responsibility. 1027 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 2: Maybe there is somebody to blame, and maybe that person 1028 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 2: is you. 1029 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 1: Maybe you need to take a long look in the mirror. 1030 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: You imagine Johnny was your therapist. Hey, you ever thought 1031 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 1: about maybe the problem was you Remember that time we 1032 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:41,880 Speaker 1: were with our buddy.

Yeah, and our 1035 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: other buddy was with us. We were all coming in 1036 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 1: ready to be gentle, like hey man, you know, and 1037 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 1: we sat down and he goes, hey, you ever thought 1038 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:59,439 Speaker 1: to yourself, man, my life sucks. We were like what 1039 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 1: He was like, no, oh man, that meeting. 1040 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 2: That not we were hoping that would be a big 1041 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 2: aha moment. He was like, no, I don't think that, or. 1042 00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:11,240 Speaker 1: Like maybe we could have led with something a little different. 1043 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 1: You ever just thought to yourself, man, there's your book title, 1044 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: my life sucks. Yeah, that's self realization. People have to 1045 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 1: want that kind of self. Really, you can't give self 1046 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:29,759 Speaker 1: realization or else it's not self, it's right, it's exterior revelation. 1047 00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: Come on, realization.
