You always run this clothes drive, 110 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 3: so people were always dropping clothes off, and I remember 111 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: it was there once when a woman came to drop 112 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 3: off a bunch of clothes but then asked missus Kelly 113 00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 3: for a receipt. Yes, and missus Kelly like just lost it. 114 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 3: Like the idea that you would ask for a receipt 115 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 3: for something that you're donating. Yeah, like it like was 116 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 3: so illogical to her. Yeah, like to like the Catholic 117 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 3: idea of like donation that she just told her to 118 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 3: take all her clothes and leave. Like it was like 119 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 3: she was furious.

But 127 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 2: it's like, yeah, there's something about doing good or doing 128 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: bad and just leaving it for somebody else to discover 129 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 2: that is so so satisfying. 130 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, did you I never went to camp, but 131 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 3: I had you know, I never talked about this on 132 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 3: the podcast, but I so. I had a English teacher 133 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 3: in high school by the name of Joe Peely who 134 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 3: then he taught this class called Midstreams and Cultures and 135 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 3: a lot of it was based on like Eastern and 136 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 3: this was in high school, and it was like a 137 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 3: lot of Eastern philosophy. There was a whole section on 138 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 3: Native American philosophy, and then at the end you could 139 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 3: go on a three day camp and you would learn 140 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 3: like primal primitive survival techniques. So when I was eighteen, 141 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 3: I went on this camp and it was fucking awesome. Yes, 142 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 3: And then I decided that to continually go back to 143 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 3: that same land. It was called Crow from the age 144 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 3: of eighteen until it was recently sold. It was maybe 145 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: sold five years ago. Great, And so every single year 146 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 3: I was camping multiple times at this place. But when 147 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 3: I graduated college twenty two, what I decided to do 148 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 3: was I was just going to live in the woods 149 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 3: by myself for a month. 150 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 2: Who doesn't you and Chris McCandless, I think that's that 151 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 2: guy's name. 152 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: Yeah? 153 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: Is that it? 154 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: Think?

Though. 160 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: Buying camping gear is one of the great things an 161 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 2: adult can do. You're just like, I'm taking a home 162 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 2: with me.

I was always thinking of the lack 249 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 3: of other human beings or like how lonely I was. 250 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 3: And as soon as I accept as soon as I 251 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 3: accepted that I was there and just was present, Yep, 252 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 3: like it all was released.

I didn't realize till 255 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 3: months later that that is what happened in that moment. 256 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 3: Sure you know, because it happened, it was amazing. 257 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: You might not have ever tried stand up if you 258 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 2: hadn't done that. It's a very solo career. And I 259 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 2: think you tested yourself and learned you were okay with 260 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 2: failing and then you got your butt back up there 261 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 2: and look at you now. 262 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 1: Look at me, you're killing it. 263 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, just stuck at home not being able to tour. Yeah. 264 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: Fun year. Also, I'm gonna one I am. I'm going 265 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: to switch my story up. 266 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: Give me just a second of find it because I 267 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 2: like I like the Boy Scouts of the theme. I 268 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: like what you did. I did get one about a 269 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 2: retreat that I'm gonna do. Oh so quick, quick, quick sidebar. 270 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 2: There is a bar, and Kurt, you might know about this. 271 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 2: It's in Denver, and I believe it's called My Brother's Bar, 272 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 2: and they the owner had a daughter who was in 273 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 2: the Girl Scouts, and so he started buying Girl Scout 274 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 2: cookies every year and then selling them at the bar. 275 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 2: So the first time I went was probably about eight 276 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 2: years ago. Ten years ago. 277 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: This guy will buy like five thousand. 278 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 2: Dollars worth of Girl Scout cookies, and then I think 279 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 2: they have a kitchen when they make burgers and stuff. 280 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 2: But then everybody that took me was like, we go 281 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: once we're already drunk, We're gonna take a cab there. 282 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 2: We all buy different boxes of Girl Scout cookies and 283 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 2: then we just get drunker and house Girl Scout cookies. 284 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 2: It is the best idea I encourage. Whenever bars fully reopen, 285 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: whenever the great vaccine or hand of God comes down, 286 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 2: bars support the Girl Scouts buy their cookies drunk, people 287 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: eat them like they're going out of business. 288 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 3: That's a great idea. What state is Denver? 289 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 1: In Denver, Colorado? 290 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 2: My brother's bar in Denver, and I hope they're still around. 291 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 2: And it was the best gimmick. They had them stacked 292 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: to the ceiling. I mean, five thousand boxes of cookies. 293 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 3: Oh man, as soon as this soon as we can, 294 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 3: we're coming to downs.

The youth group leaders were all over involved 313 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: parent volunteers who loved to create fun weekend retreats that 314 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: were actually just expensive in doctrination sessions. One weekend, we 315 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 2: were separated into groups by gender. Of course, nobody does 316 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: it better than the church, and shuttled to different houses. 317 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: Upon arrival, the house mom went over her rules for 318 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 2: the weekend. Clean up over your after yourself, be nice 319 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 2: to others, make your bed, etc. She then brought out 320 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 2: an anti hospital bedpan. She passed it around, made us 321 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 2: all pass around, and told us what a bedpan was 322 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 2: and how this particular one was used, but it would 323 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 2: be clean for all of us to drink out of 324 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 2: all weekend. She said it was the only thing big 325 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 2: enough to hold enough water for all of us, So 326 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 2: we all exchanged horrified glances before she started laughing like 327 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 2: a maniac and told us and told us the lesson 328 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 2: for this weekend was purity, and that this bedpan was 329 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 2: her metaphor. 330 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: The bedpan was. 331 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: Physically clean, but we were still disgusted by the thought 332 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: of using it. She explained that essentially it was the 333 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 2: exact same energy that our husbands would have if they 334 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 2: found out we had sex before marriage. 335 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: Oh no, oh my. 336 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 3: God, that they're used bedpan. 337 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: Yes, fucking great, what a demon woman.
