WEBVTT - When Did Your Pants Get So Tight? 0:00:04.600 --> 0:00:07.800 All right, what's up? It's gone the with another episode 0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:10.440 of Sauce on the side. Today is gonna be a 0:00:10.480 --> 0:00:13.560 little bit different. It's definitely gonna get weird, as we promise, 0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:16.040 But I have a different producer sitting in with me, 0:00:16.440 --> 0:00:20.320 one who might be one of my favorite people. Hello Diamond, Hi, 0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:21.680 you just got. 0:00:21.480 --> 0:00:24.800 Me really excited. I did the high pitch thing because 0:00:24.840 --> 0:00:25.640 you just made my day. 0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:28.600 So everybody always asks us like, oh, do you have 0:00:28.640 --> 0:00:30.520 a radio voice or oh my gosh, your voice sounds 0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:32.800 exactly the same off the aras on the air. You 0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:34.639 have a radio voice, which. 0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:37.000 Is very weird because I think I do it because 0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:39.320 I get nervous, and I never realized that at first. 0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:44.320 Really yeah, yeah, it gives very like hi and high pitched, 0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:47.480 and then when we're just having regular conversations, I'm like, yeah, 0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:48.720 so whatever, Yeah. 0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:51.440 That's like like the natural. Diamond is first of all 0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:53.239 my favorite because I know I'm gonna get some real 0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.840 shit when you're talking like that. But I always think 0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:59.200 of you. Remember like Paris Hilton way back in the day, 0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:00.000 she used to talk. 0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:02.920 But it was her nervous, Like the thing that she 0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:04.880 did when she was nervous, was it nervous. 0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:06.920 It was nerves that did that. I always just thought 0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:08.480 it was her trying to be like extra sexy or 0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:11.160 do whatever. But then the cameras would catch her slipping 0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:12.400 every now and then she'd be like, what's up? 0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:12.600 You know? 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:17.639 Watch her show show Love in Paris or Life in Paris. 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.399 It's on Peacock. It's good. I don't really good. 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:23.040 You have me watching a lot of shit lately. Love 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:25.920 is Blind season six. We're gonna have to try and 0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:28.920 get some of these people on the podcast at some point. Specifically, 0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:33.160 I want Kenneth, I want Jimmy, I want Chelsea. Who else? 0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:36.160 Matthew, Matthew. 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.479 I gotta be honest, just based on what you see 0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:42.360 on the show. I probably would have picked Matthew because 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:43.320 he's so fucking weird. 0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:44.080 Oh my god. 0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:47.119 I would have picked him just to have conversations with him. 0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:49.720 He just Matthew. You deserved better, buddy. 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:53.200 Maybe maybe I don't know, but if you haven't watched 0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:55.480 Love Is Blind season six, you gotta watch it because 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:57.720 there's a lot of shit going on. I think all 0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:01.040 the last episodes drop today the twenty eighth. 0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:03.400 Yeah, but I didn't realize we were already at the 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:04.360 end of the season. 0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:07.560 Yeah, I think those remaining episodes are coming out. 0:02:07.560 --> 0:02:09.080 Oh no, no, I'm nervous. 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:10.720 So you got me watching that bullshit. You got me 0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:14.200 watching The Traders, but you you sold me with one person. 0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:18.840 So of course CT is great. He's like your typical Boston, 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:22.440 like southy Boston boy. That is him. You would maybe 0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:24.799 like if you love him, you might like southeas Ooh, 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:26.480 I usual in Boston. 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:27.280 Can we take a trip? 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:28.880 Yeah, I'm into it. 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:30.200 Let's go Red Sox. 0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:32.720 We should. But now you have me watching some shit 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:34.040 life in Paris? What is it? 0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:38.119 And it's actually really really really good, like you get her? 0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:39.240 Okay, it's good. 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.359 I'm excited about this, into it. I don't know, we'll see. 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:42.600 I'll give it a little shot. And you still are 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:45.520 trying to get me on the Real Housewives. Please please, 0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:46.400 I don't know. 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:46.919 I don't beg. 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:49.160 You can do it. You know I'm into weird stuff 0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:50.880 and that's what it is. 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:53.760 Okay, whatever, I'm not even gonna do this because you're 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.959 gonna make me beg, and I will. 0:02:56.960 --> 0:02:59.280 I'll beg all right if if I were to watch it, 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:02.960 which I probably won't, which seasons, which cast do I 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:03.400 start with. 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:08.120 I think it depends on the franchise. Okay, so if 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:11.359 we're doing Atlanta seasons one through six, maybe. 0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:11.720 Dear God. 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:13.120 Yeah, but like you could pick. 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:16.040 A random season within from one through six, and I 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:20.079 think that you would be thoroughly entertained. Beverly Hills. I say, 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:23.120 the first two seasons, or skip to season five or 0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:23.760 season ten. 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:26.679 Okay, trust me, I know, I'm I rewatch all the time. 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:32.720 And then in New York you want to watch season seven, 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:36.280 eight and nine, maybe six, seven eight. 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:39.440 I'm actually very impressed by the fact that you even 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:41.800 know these seasons. Oh no, he's cast off the top 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:42.320 of your head. 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:44.280 I'm into it, and I think that you would love 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:48.560 this one specific housewife. Everybody always gets confused or they 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.200 like look at me like I'm crazy when I say 0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:55.440 that my favorite housewife of all time is Carol Radswell. 0:03:55.960 --> 0:04:01.119 She was married to Lee Radswell's son, who was Jackie 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:06.000 Kennedy's sister. I mean, so she was like a big 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.200 deal in like or she was related to people who 0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:09.640 were a big deal. But then you come on this 0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:11.720 show and people were like, what are you doing here? 0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:15.240 And she was just so smart and witty and just like, 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:17.200 oh Carol. 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:17.799 I miss you girl. 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:18.440 Where'd she go? 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:20.359 Not on any she quit because she got into it 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:21.960 with Bethany. Bethany was like her best friend. 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:25.160 They got into it, and technically, I think like from 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.080 the outside looking in, it looked like Andy took Bethany's side. 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:31.120 So Carol pistap Atown down and that's it. And they 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:33.120 still talk about each other to this day. And that 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:34.600 was like twenty sixteen. 0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:35.839 Oh what a time. 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:39.440 Your your depth of knowledge on the Housewives is incredible 0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:41.720 at all. I wish you had a Housewives podcast. I 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:43.800 actually wish you just had your own podcast in general, 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:45.599 because a lot of people don't know a lot of 0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:48.320 really dope shit about you, which I think, you know what, 0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:51.279 you know what. So I said, I want to do 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:54.520 an episode on all of the show members who don't 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:57.960 have their own segment on this show. So that would 0:04:57.960 --> 0:04:59.520 be and I know we talked to you all the time, 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:06.240 but like just you, right, So that would be you, Josh, Andrew, Deanna, Scotty, Scott. 0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:08.920 We already did Scotty. That was a mess. That was 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:11.840 a mess, But I think maybe we should do you next. 0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:14.320 I'm down, Yeah, yeah, let's get into it. 0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:19.000 Okay, but before we do that, there is a person 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.760 who is going to be my guest today who talk 0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:25.040 about weird stuff. I guess we should just get to it. 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:26.799 I don't want to hype it up. We're gonna get 0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:30.599 into the meat of it because he's already here. Let's 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:35.760 just do it, all right, this is gonna be a 0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:38.400 great one and a weird one. I am so excited. 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:41.920 You know, I'm an animal lover and a few years ago, 0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:45.520 during the pandemic, right, yeah, during the pandemic, we all 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:49.200 started following Peanut the Squirrel on Instagram. Peanut has a 0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:51.800 handler named Mark. We're allowed to use your name, rate, Okay, 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:55.640 Mark's here. Obviously Peanut has a handler named Mark, and 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:57.800 it was such a cute relationship we all got obsessed 0:05:57.839 --> 0:05:59.400 with it. Mark came on the show. That's when we 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:01.840 met you for the first time, and things have taken 0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:05.080 a drastic turn from there in good ways. So welcome 0:06:05.120 --> 0:06:07.520 to the show, Mark aka squirrel Daddy, which she hates 0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:07.960 being called. 0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:09.120 Thank you so much for having me. 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.560 Okay, so let's start with the cute stuff. Peanut the Squirrel, 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.200 how did you guys meet? I know it's kind of 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:15.920 a sad story. 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:18.160 I work in New York City and I was leaving 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:21.120 a project and saw this squirrel get hit by a car. 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:24.360 It was like a busy intersection downtown. So I ran 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.240 in the middle of the intersection because I saw she 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:29.400 was still moving. Unfortunately she had passed and what was 0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:31.280 moving was this little baby and he was trying to 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:34.440 cross the street. I ran in the middle of Manhattan, 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:36.760 you know how that is? Ye and me and him 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:38.760 locked eyes and I tried to like shuffle him out 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:40.760 of the way, and he crawled up my leg and 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.520 I was like, let's go, you know, let's go. So 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:45.960 got in the car, drove back to Connecticut on the 0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.280 phone with their vet and they were like, Mark, we're 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:50.200 just gonna put him down. I was like, you can't, can't, 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:51.000 there's nothing wrong with. 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.279 So he was injured or no, he wasn't injured and injured. 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.400 I just had one eye closed. He was still very young, 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:57.120 and they were like, we're just gonna put him down 0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:00.960 in so I took a picture of him, started him 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:04.920 on Instagram and boom, somebody called me and was like, 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.719 do you want to get your wildlife rehabber's license. We 0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:10.560 can coach you. You could take the test in the course, 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:13.080 and then you could do your community service hours while 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:15.880 you know, managing Peanut. So I was like, this is awesome. 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:18.040 You know, I will build a bond and get him 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:19.760 ready for the wild. I'll put him in my backyard 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.520 so he'll be close. So that time came, so I'm 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:25.160 bawling my eyes out and there he goes up to 0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:28.120 his first tree and I'm like, all right, he'll be 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.360 in the backyard. Maybe he'll bring me some babies, or 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:32.040 he'll come home if he needs some food or something. 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.080 A day and a half later, sitting on my porch 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.280 missing half of his tail. Oh, so we ended up 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:38.800 getting attacked by something. I have no idea, but that 0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:42.040 was the end of peanuts wildlife career and he became 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:43.560 a domesticated indoor squirrel. 0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:45.520 So he got attacked, and he came back to your 0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:48.000 porch like, hello, this didn't work out. 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.200 For me, It was not for him. I think he 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:51.800 tried to make a friend and the friend wanted to 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:52.480 eat him instead. 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:55.240 So that's terrible. And you never found out what attacked him. 0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:57.720 He never found out. There were some local cats and stuff. 0:07:57.720 --> 0:07:59.000 But I haven't a clue. 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.960 Okay, does he have weird reactions to like dogs or 0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:04.280 anything or any animals that would make you think that's his. 0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:07.800 Problem is he has no survival instinct, like he'll go to. 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:09.720 Lives in a home, he has his own room. Oh yeah, 0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:11.280 well kind of survival instinct. What do he happened? 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:12.880 Literally nothing, you're living. 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:15.000 My dream life. Tell me some of the best things 0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:16.600 that have happened from this. 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:20.600 Oh yeah. So I'm not a big person into dms. 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:23.320 I do like to communicate as many people as possible, 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:25.440 just say thank you for the love and support because 0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:30.000 I'm nothing without peanut. And posted up a picture of 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:33.400 him eating oatmeal and holding a sign, and my now 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.920 wife shot me a DM she wrote in love and 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:40.079 I was like, got a message, this one back and 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:44.840 we started talking like accounting investments, and I was like, 0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:48.839 this is a catfish. This is in the basement and 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:49.800 he's having a blast with me. 0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:50.640 Send me your cash app. 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:53.320 And I was like, don't want to be rude, but 0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:55.400 do you mind facetiming me? And she hit me with 0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:57.360 the like I could do it in twenty five minutes 0:08:57.440 --> 0:08:59.559 and I was like, this dude's going to get the girl. Yeah, 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:03.920 this video turns out. She went and got a flying 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:06.800 squirrel costume, one of the costumes I wear in one 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:10.199 of Peanuts videos. She facetimed me with the costume on, 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:13.679 and I was like, I'm in love with you. How 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:15.599 do I meet you? This is the coolest thing in 0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:18.440 the world. And ended up meeting her. We traveled the 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:23.280 world and Peanut gained a squirrel mom and now she 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:25.920 takes the videos with him and she's just been blowing 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:28.600 up on TikTok and I'm just the background noise. 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:31.120 No oh no, We're gonna get to why you're not 0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:33.960 the background noise in a moment. So he was cool 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:35.560 as soon as she came in, like, yes, this is 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:36.600 a new friend, no problem. 0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:39.120 I was a tiny bit jealous, not gonna lie. You know, 0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:41.640 I dealt with this squirrel for seven years and. 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:44.520 He's seven seven. How long do squirrels live? 0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:45.559 Ten to twenty years? 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:47.600 Oh my god, Okay, we're rooting for twenty you know. 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:49.440 I'm just glad he lets me live in the house. 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:51.800 You know, if I could, if he could talk, then 0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:53.560 you know, it'd be out of this this portion of 0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:56.800 my life. But yeah, he's been like and again, I 0:09:56.800 --> 0:09:59.600 don't know what happened. I wish I had an explanation 0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:02.160 to why he's so good with people, but he loves. 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:03.080 Well the person saved him. 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:05.760 Yeah, usually they tend to like the person that saved them, 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:09.800 and then they're very defensive towards everybody else. Weird thing 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:11.440 is I got to meet other people's squirrels. 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:15.000 Is that like a big community, the squirrel community? 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:16.320 Shockingly, it's bigger than you think. 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:19.199 Wow? Yeah, how big are we talking? Like? How many 0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:20.600 people could I meet that have a squirrel? 0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:24.400 Like five hundred to one thousand. Interesting? 0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:27.520 So in the process of all of this, you started 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.359 a wildlife rescue. 0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:30.240 What is that about? 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:32.440 Because you sort of mentioned it right before this interview started. 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:34.839 And the numbers I have here on my bio are 0:10:35.360 --> 0:10:38.800 clearly very old because this says you have eleven horses, 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:40.440 but you said you have how many? 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:41.480 We're close to forty. 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:44.720 Now you have forty horses that you have rescued, Yes, from. 0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:47.360 We tend to look for animals that are coming from 0:10:47.400 --> 0:10:50.080 the auction lines or the kill pens, so we're kind 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:52.480 of their last line of defense. What's happening a lot? 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.880 And I didn't know this. I'm not a poorse guy, 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:59.920 my wife is. And we started this and we realized 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.040 how many animals were going to the auction that were 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:04.720 being mistreated, and we were like, okay, this is a 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:08.160 perfect opportunity to turn Peanuts pages into something really good 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:11.679 and why not start a nonprofit with one rescue and 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:14.840 help as many as we could. So we just started 0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:19.040 and the floodgates opened with peanuts social media being you 0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:21.560 know where it's at. A lot of people were like, 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:24.880 this is amazing, but we also know that this animal needs, 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:27.000 you know, a home. This one does, this one does, 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:29.840 and we just kind of started to travel and travel 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:31.280 and travel. We couldn't say no. 0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:33.560 So Peanut has taken you around the world. 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:35.800 Peanut's taken me around the world. 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:37.400 Does he make these trips with you ever? 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:40.080 I wish? Okay, I wish the diva himself. He stays 0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:40.440 at home. 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:41.640 Why is that? 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.720 He doesn't like the car? It gets a little carsick. 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:49.720 We're driving to our new place and he started gagging 0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:52.320 and I'm like, oh no, he's gonna die. Called everybody 0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:55.520 up and they're like, he's starting just being dramatic. 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.600 Can you do a squirrel gag? 0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:01.520 See? I do a lot of the noises, but this 0:12:01.559 --> 0:12:03.880 one was a little unique, and I was like, Oh, 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:06.200 he's dying. He's dead. I'm calling everybody crying. I'm like, 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:09.480 he's this is it, this is it. We're we're going down. 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:11.559 He took a bad turn out on the side of 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:15.079 the highway, crying in the middle of the very funny. 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:17.800 I have the cat screaming in my in the passenger 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:20.680 seat and Peanut on my lap just like spitting up ship, 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:22.679 and I'm like, this is it. 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:25.360 So that's the one one and done that does not travel. 0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:26.960 He's made it clear, don't travel. 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:28.000 All right? How many ghats do you have? 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:30.640 One hundred and fifty right now? My god? 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:33.280 Six miniature horses? Do you have more than that? 0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:37.400 Now? Yeah? Six manture horses. We have too many donkeys? 0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:40.000 We have ten l packas. 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:44.600 Stop it the softest little My god, sheep? 0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:45.720 How two sheep? 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.000 Two sheep? What's a hinnie? 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:51.400 A hinnie is a donkey and a horse mix. 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:54.000 And how many of those do you have? You have 0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:56.160 two innies? How many birds? 0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:00.120 The flock of chicken, geese and quail is probably fifty? 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:04.360 And then somebody adopted their macaw to our How many? 0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:06.440 How big is the place where you live? Are you 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:07.000 guys all on. 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:09.240 Top of each other or one hundred and fifty acres, 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:13.280 so wow, plenty of room. And again we wanted to 0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:15.960 establish something really big. I know, it was like a big, 0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:19.720 big journey in a big project to start, but we thought, 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:21.720 why not try to make it as big as possible? 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:23.440 When is this peanuts Freedom Farm? 0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:24.600 This is Peanuts Freedom Farm? 0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:26.680 So all these animals stay there just for the rest 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:28.320 of their lives. Are you trying to get them back 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:29.280 out to other places? 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:31.720 We do have an adoption program for our horses and 0:13:31.760 --> 0:13:34.559 our goats, but it kind of depends because we take 0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:38.880 so many in that are older, have disabilities, have lingering injuries, 0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:41.840 or need medications. We're going to keep them. So we 0:13:41.880 --> 0:13:44.120 do have healthier animals as well that we're hoping to 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.840 get back into loving families. Okay, I'm not a horse guy, 0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:49.160 and I will go and hang out with them all 0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:50.320 day long. They're the coolest. 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:54.240 Asking for a friend, do you have any raccoons soon? Yeah? 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:54.520 So? 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:57.640 And do you have visitors that can come to the 0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:58.959 farm and check things out. 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.760 All of the time, literally touch things everything you could 0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:02.240 be touched? 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:04.880 What do they all have names? They all have names, 0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:05.959 you know all their names for. 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:08.640 The most part, yes, sometimes there's a goat or two 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:10.880 that don't really remember. And then I realized that my 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:12.400 wife snuck two more goat. 0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:14.560 In, and so there was one day I was like, 0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:16.280 those people are like hide shoes in their trucks. Your 0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:19.200 wife sneaks in goats goats. I like her, this is great. 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.160 So I'm gonna come touch all the animals on your farm. 0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:22.920 Drop it real quickly. If people want to donate to 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.480 Peanuts Freedom Farm, I'm saying peanut because we're getting to 0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:28.480 some other stuff in a minute. Peanuts Freedom Farm, how 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:29.080 would they do that? 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:32.360 We do have a website and Peanuts abbreviated p and 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:36.080 uts Peanuts Freedofarm dot com. We also have an Instagram 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.960 Peanuts Freedom Farm. We've been just kind of rolling with 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:40.560 the punches. 0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:44.120 Now your background earlier, you were saying you have two degrees. 0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:49.680 You are educated in what mechanical engineering and criminal justice? Okay, 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.200 So this whole social media thing was never a real 0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:54.480 big thing for me for the most part. For a while, 0:14:54.520 --> 0:14:56.760 I hid my face and then people are like, well, 0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:59.800 who's this guy behind the squirrel? Yeah, so I incorporated 0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:02.359 my and I was like, well, I have really bad anxiety, 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:04.000 and I was like, this will be a really good 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:05.640 way for me to work on it fight, you know, 0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:08.760 show the world who I am. They might take a 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:11.960 liking or they might think I'm a dick. So we 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:13.720 just got to go with it. So I used it 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:15.760 in my benefit to kind of break out of my 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:19.120 shell because I am just introvert. I'm a homebody, and 0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:20.480 I was like, you know, this would be cool if 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:22.400 I'm the background noise of this scirl, we can make 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:24.480 some funny content. I think people will just enjoy this 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:25.000 very much. 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:26.880 Has it worked with the anxiety? Has it helped you? 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:29.640 It really has. You know, you've been doing interviews like this. 0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:32.080 You give me three years ago you wouldn't have seen me. 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:33.680 I would have been like, thank you, but no, thank 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:35.040 you really? Really? 0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.520 Are you still working? Are you still doing a day 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:39.000 job I am? Or has this given you the. 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.680 Freedom I will never stop doing my day job? 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:42.120 Okay. 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:44.960 As cool and awesome as the internet stuff is, it's 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:47.880 a wave. And I think the more that you understand 0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:50.160 it's a wave, yea, the better you'll be out in 0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:51.160 the long run. 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:54.000 Correct. So the reason I ask has this taken you 0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:56.920 in a completely different direction from your job? Is because 0:15:57.440 --> 0:15:59.920 as we started watching Peanut to fly onto your hand. 0:16:00.120 --> 0:16:02.560 You walk in It's very adorable, all great, and then 0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:05.320 your pants got tired and tighter. Was this on purpose? 0:16:06.200 --> 0:16:08.440 This was not on purpose? And I will, oh, come on, 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.320 I will fight this till the day I died. Okay, 0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:13.160 So two things happen and people are like, you're full 0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:17.080 of shit playing hockey my entire life. I had emergency 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.400 surgery on my groin. Nothing crazy. They cut me open 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:22.000 four different spots from my belly button down to my manhood. 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:24.800 I became one percent woman that day. They gave me 0:16:24.800 --> 0:16:27.480 a big patch of the vaginal mesh my left side 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:30.040 of my groin. Didn't tell me that, right, I'm just 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:35.160 yip is it? And you know I do get lingering 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:39.040 pain from it. So I always wore compression clothes, so 0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:43.160 that was always my thing. And then cool thing that 0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:45.640 I got was a cool gym sponsorship. So this company 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:49.280 was sending me close and first time they send me clothes, 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.800 I called the rep and I was like, dude, I 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:53.320 don't think I could wear these and he was like, 0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:54.720
