So should we have gotten some airhorns to 0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:32.080 be able to be like in the background as we're 0:00:32.080 --> 0:00:34.560 celebrating this, Hey, we should have gotten a live in 0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:36.920 studio audience, invited them up to our clubhouse. Listeners. 0:00:36.920 --> 0:00:39.599 Can't see me raising my glass, but cheers buddy. Seriously, 0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:42.400 one thousand episodes incredible, quite the milestone. 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.560 I'm so glad that I could celebrate it with you. Specifically. 0:00:45.840 --> 0:00:48.960 Who else would be celebrated with Seriously, there's. 0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:51.440 No one else. Yeah, I never never thought that we'd 0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:54.240 hit a thousand. Did we celebrate when we hit a hundred? 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:56.240 I'm sure we did in some way, And I think 0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:59.400 maybe we even contemplated when we hit five hundred episodes. 0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:03.320 But a thoud that's a serious landmark milestone episode. 0:01:03.360 --> 0:01:05.520 But we should really be celebrating our listeners for putting 0:01:05.600 --> 0:01:07.480 up with us for this long and it wouldn't have 0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:10.160 been possible to keep listening. Yeah, because for some reason 0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:13.280 they love us or like us enough guess enough, Yeah, 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:16.120 I love They're like they're listening right and like it 0:01:16.120 --> 0:01:18.920 feels a bit strong. I like you, okay, but uh no, 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:21.480 there's and so many good uh but it was funny. 0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:24.720 I was listening to recently, Matt. There's this podcast called 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:27.720 econ Talk and it's like super nerdy, pointy headed economist 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:30.600 podcast that's been around for almost twenty years. And Russ 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:33.160 the host over there, just celebrated his thousands of episode, 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:34.679 and so I was listening to his and he took 0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:38.360 questions from chess ept uh and he was like, which 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:41.039 I thought was like interesting, especially for what he does 0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:43.880 and the style of show that he creates. But for us, 0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:46.319 we'd like hearing from the people, the people's questions. Yes, 0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:48.560 that's what I wanted, because actually I did real quick. 0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:50.920 I looked up on chat GPT, like what questions would 0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:53.400 you ask Matt Joel celebrating their thousands episode? Interesting, they 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:55.640 came up. They were super lame and basic. I was like, 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:58.160 the questions our listeners sent in are way better than that, 0:01:58.240 --> 0:02:00.560 so much more personality. Yes, so we got thank you 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.320 by the way for submitting those questions. We will get 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:06.040 to as many as humanly possible. Yes, over of course 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:09.360 this did you want to share so last weeks? So 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:10.079 it was the last. 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.680 Friday's episode with Jilly, and we talked about the sabbaticals. Yeah, 0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:15.160 do we want to should we share now or at 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:17.160 the end of the episode? Kind of planned at the 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:19.160 end we'll talk about our sabbaticals the stick around. But 0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:21.960 let's maybe listen to last Friday's episode if you haven't 0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:24.840 already listened to the sabbatical episode. Also, let us know 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:26.840 what you thought of that format. We totally switched things 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:30.720 up and took a very unstructured kind of casual approach 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:33.840 to it and more organic. Yeah, and granted that particular 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:37.600 topic allowed us to do something like that, but uh, yeah, 0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:40.600 I'm curious to see if listeners were drawn to that, 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:42.359 because I think there are different ways that we could 0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:44.600 tweak the show in the future, which honest and we're 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:46.840 trying all sorts of new things now. Yeah, now is 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:50.400 as good a time as ever to consider what the 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.280 show looks like moving forward, because we've been doing the 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:55.240 same way for a long time, and we've made iterations 0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:58.600 over these last seven plus years exactly, but we will 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:01.120 probably make more and more just to try to I 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:03.560 don't know, be relevant then stick with the times, and 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:07.800 maybe we're not necessarily wetted to a singular format or 0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:08.600 just how we've done things. 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.280 My biggest question for people is is the intro too long? 0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:12.800 Do we need to cut the music back? Like? Should 0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:13.560 we just get straight to it? 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.079 That's why I intentionally did not include the music on 0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:18.519 a Jillian's episode, And I just liked how he just 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.360 kind of kicked things off because it reminds me of 0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:22.120 some of my favorite shows that are a little more 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:24.360 personal in nature, where it sounds like you're just joining 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.520 the conversation as opposed to feeling like something has been 0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:29.040 dished up set on the plate perfectly for you, like 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:31.720 a may Er d at some super fancy Michelin star 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:34.200 restaurant where it's all perfect, as opposed to, hey, how 0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:36.560 about you jump into the kitchen here and let's throw 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:37.680 some food on the plate. 0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:40.640 Should we underproduce a little more basically is what you're saying. 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:42.880 I don't know, maybe, yeah, a little more rustic. Obviously 0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:45.240 there's different reasons for us to consider that, but yeah, 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.760 this is an AMA and ask me anything. And specifically 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:50.760 we asked the listeners to reach out with questions that 0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:54.240 they might have had for us that were specifically non 0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:58.200 financial in nature. Some kind of slipped through the cracks 0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:00.520 and found their way into some of the money questions. 0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:02.320 Slip through the cracks. Well, we love We'll still get 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:04.360 to those. We love your money questions, and we want 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:08.040 to take those moving forward post sabbatical with regularity. It's 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:09.920 super fun and then we'll get back to that the 0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:12.400 heart of the show. Have too money, but it's really 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:15.640 fun when you have other questions for us that don't 0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:17.480 align with personal finance, and this is just like a 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:20.400 rare opportunity to dig into those questions that you have. 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:22.919 And I hopefully we'll have even more of these in 0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.000 the future, but this is I'm looking forward to this totally. 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:26.760 And we have a ton of questions and so we're 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:29.480 actually not going to play the any voice memos. We're 0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:31.480 going to read the questions. That way we can get 0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:33.920 to as many different topics as possible. Joel, you nik 0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:34.240 kick it off. 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:36.159 Yeah, let's do it all right. This one came from Allison. 0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:37.680 She says, why don't you and Matt go on a 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:40.960 nationwide tour and hang party, barbecue, drink craft beer all 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:44.240 around the country. You could even incorporate some fundraising along 0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:47.080 the way, maybe for some nonprofits that help underserve kids 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.479 learn about money. If you come to Sacramento, she says, 0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:52.840 I will help organize, which is enticing, because organization not 0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:55.600 my strong suit. Man. How's this sound to you? Would 0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:57.479 you would you be be down for this? Well? I 0:04:57.520 --> 0:05:00.279 think so. I really like the idea. I like the 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:04.000 idea of nonprofits raising money. I like the idea of 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.520 a nationwide tour. The tough thing. It's gonna be hard 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:07.920 to like leave the fan for that long. 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:09.720 That is the first thing that went through my mind, 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.640 like or maybe we wanted to get a giant RV 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:14.719 all together had. 0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:17.280 Of money across America. If truly, if it wasn't for 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:18.880 the kids and for Kate. 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:21.479 Because I don't think they would necessarily want to like 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:24.840 be dragged along, like towed along the entire country. Sure, 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:26.600 while we went and did these fun things, like I 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:28.640 would like I when I travel with them, I want 0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:29.640 to be able to do things with them. 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:31.400 And I don't think that it's a cop out. 0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:33.760 But I do think that if I were in a 0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:35.920 completely different stage of life, if I if we didn't 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:38.480 have kids, and I think our wives would even be 0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:40.520 more on board with like going along and just kind 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:42.719 of doing whatever. Almost the four of us along the way, 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.200 But so much of my time now I am so 0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:47.160 focusing on being able to do stuff at home. Like 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.800 garbage time is a phrase that I keep coming back 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:52.640 to that I am really enjoying because we just forced 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:55.280 reference right when there's like there's like two minutes left 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.320 on the clock and you can't like it's it's the time. 0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:58.760 I realize that that's where it came from. I sh 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:02.320 knew that the Seinfield uh mentioned that's my garbage time. 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:04.640 Okay, well that's usually like the is that what he 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:06.920 was referenced of the game that feel unimportant, But there's 0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:07.760 a lot of importance in. 0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:09.520 The yeah yeah, and so a lot of times, like 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:11.320 the way he describes it is that we put so 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:14.400 much hope on these massive trips, yeah, or the big 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:18.160 events or what the big turning sixteen and you get 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:20.520 your car whatever, all these other things as opposed to 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:23.799 the in between moments kind of sprinkled throughout life, which 0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.600 is where the real sort of living happens, and how 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.680 in particular I think our kids form their memories like 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:31.880 it is the it makes me think of like a 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:33.799 science fair project, like the poster board. 0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:35.039 It's like the backboard. 0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:36.680 It's like you like that has to be there in 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.320 order to pin the bigger things in life too. It's 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.320 like the substrate of our life. Yeah, and a lot 0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:43.960 of times we're trying to get rid of the garbage time, 0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:46.000 and like, oh, I wish life was just more efficient. 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:49.000 But I think so much of the not to get 0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:52.440 overly philosophical right out of the gate, but I feel 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.919 like so much of that is what makes life amazing. 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:56.880 Like I less remember my dad teaching me how to drive, 0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:58.400 and more him throwing me in the pool, And like 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:00.320 throwing me in the pool is like, uh, is a 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:01.960 garbage time sort of thing. So I get what you're saying. 0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:04.239 I think though, what resonates with me about this question 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:08.000 and the thing the hardest part of podcasting is that 0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.320 I get We get to meet so few listeners, and 0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:11.720 every once in a while we do. Matt, we went 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.320 to a soccer game recently and we ran into a listener. 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:16.560 We're talking to him, and somebody another listener was walking by. 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:18.240 That's what I was like, Oh, I forgot about it. 0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:20.840 I just wish I had more run ins with listeners 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:23.080 and so because it is a joy, like they're always 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:26.320 cool and they're always like kind and conscientious, and so 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.040 I do wish I had I got to meet. 0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:31.280 More of you, all right, Juliana wrote, if you two 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:34.080 were to open a brewery, what would it be known for? 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:39.800 So specialty beer type, location, environment, entertainment, whatever feature Joel, 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.360 if this isn't something we've ever that we've talked about, 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:45.800 so what would you were you to open a brewery? 0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:48.280 I think what aspects would you want to focus on? 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.360 I think friendliness and hayes Is are the two things 0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:55.280 I really thought about, and hazy IPA's specifically, and then 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:57.400 a friendly yeah spot. I mean, if you've been to 0:07:57.400 --> 0:07:59.200 many craft breweries, a lot of them, there's a lot 0:07:59.200 --> 0:08:01.520 of cool people, but sometimes they're too cool for school. 0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:03.920 And I love the idea of just being super friendly 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:05.960 with everybody who walks in and having a community, like 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:10.520 a cheers, like joint people to enjoy a deliciously crafted beer, 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:12.440 but also like to know people.

From a vibe standpoint, that would 0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:32.520 be the kind of brewery that I would love to open. 0:08:32.600 --> 0:08:36.600 Like the intersection of food and drink and like nature 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:39.679 and like like farm fresh ingredients that they're using a 0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:42.199 lot of local ingredients to make to make their beers. 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:44.319 It makes me think of during our road trip next month, 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:47.800 I'm hoping to make it up to Hill Farmstead, which 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:49.640 I think a lot of brewers across the country have 0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:52.439 kind of based their operation on that, which is like 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:54.800 it's on a farm, it's out in the country, like 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:55.600 Hill Farmstead. 0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:58.960 It looks like an old cedar shake house essentially, you know, 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:02.000 and it just looks so approachable, so cool. The intersection 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:06.720 of nature and local farm like ingredients and incorporating that 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.360 and like that. That is the kind of like where 0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:11.800 you're able to see in Texas to another one. 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:14.240 Why have you been to just make it out there. 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.679 They've got an incredible farm sort of set up as well. 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:19.719 I have yet to make it there, but that's the 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:21.560 kind of vibe i'd want to go for that, Like 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:23.559 plus some scenery. I don't know, maybe some hiking trails 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:24.800 as well, if you're like, you know what, let me, 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.280 I'm gonna walk this beer off and like the ability 0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:29.440 to hit some trails, Like how cool does that sound? 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:32.160 That'd be killing I like that that plus Okay, so 0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:34.840 style barrel age stuff like for me, I don't I 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.319 don't even think I care either barrel aged showers or 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.600 barrel aged stouts, but I would want to be in 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:43.280 charge of the barrel program. Just that white oak. What 0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:46.440 about barreg pills? Nurse they do they do that? Yeah? 0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:49.200 What's the what's the British innocent gun? 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:50.040 Okay? Yeah? 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:54.760 Those those are European bloggers or pills that are slightly 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:55.600 aged and oak. 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:57.920 Yeah, at least all right. This is next question comes 0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:01.440 from Rebecca. She says, what's your favorite board game? So 0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:04.079 there's a Catan okay, all the way that's like, oh, 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:06.960 that's the OG, that's the classic first. I mean that 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.560 has to have sold more copy the OG of the 0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:11.360 strategy board games than any other one. 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:13.200 And the fact we've been playing it more because we've 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:16.480 got Catan Junior, which is what we've been playing with 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:18.240 the kids, and it's one of the few that we 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:19.600 can all sit down and play together. 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.160 I know, goes Captain. I know the reason they like it, 0:10:22.679 --> 0:10:24.920 just to be able to stop them. Well, you like 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:27.880 the trash talk, and you like the negotiation, and you 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:29.760 like to be a little underhanded at times. Well, and 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:32.120 you get to use those skills. You don't normally get 0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:34.800 to use the underhanded nature in everyday life, but in 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:36.800 Catain you do. It's a free market. You don't have 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:38.480 to trade with me, trade with me. I'm going to 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:40.680 put the trade out there. Yeah. Actually, so I'm trying 0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:41.199 to get the kids. 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:44.200 I'm trying to encourage the kids to participate in person 0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:47.280 to person trading within Catan Junior. Because they're like, it's 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:48.720 not a part of the rules. I'm like, I'm pretty 0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:51.000 sure you can do that if everyone agrees to it. 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:55.080 Yeah. So I've yet to win that argument. But board games, 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.559 which man, there have been different ones over the years 0:10:57.600 --> 0:11:00.040 depending on how much time I had in my life, 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:03.760 And king Domino is one that's like short, replayable but 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.280 doesn't get boring. So I love that one. And yeah, 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:08.400 if it takes twenty minutes, I'm more likely to play it. 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:10.240 I used to love four or five hour long board 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:12.840 games just ain't happen in these days. But when we 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:15.040 do go on vacation together, the one that we play, 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:18.439 you Me, Kate and Emily. We typically play a choir 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:20.480 and that's a really fun one, especially with our so 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:23.440 fun love of real estate. I like that one, and 0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.200 you kind of also the purging of corporations and sometimes 0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:28.480 you don't know who's gonna win until the very end. 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:30.400 It feels like it's a good game. Maybe you have 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:33.160 an idea, but not really. So I like that too, 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.320 that it's just kind of shrouded in mystery for a while. 0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:37.600 By the way, we didn't even introduce our beer at 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:39.920 the very the course, we're totally just like throwing things 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.280 upside down. But this one just so folks know that 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:45.080 we are in fact enjoying a hazy ipa. This is 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:48.599 called Dark Hedges, which is a beer by a hot butcher. 0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:50.160 For the world. We might even get to a second 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:52.240 one here towards the end of the episode. Two beers today. 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.040 All right, So Susan wants to know what's your favorite 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:57.319 distance to run? Would either of you ever run? Want 0:11:57.360 --> 0:11:59.960 to run an ultra marathon? Favorite distance is easy to 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:02.160 k I love the tin k. Yeah, it's like, I 0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:05.240 don't know, it's the perfect distance because it's not so short. 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:07.359 Like five k you're almost. 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:09.280 Like sprinting the whole time, whereas a ten k you 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:11.960 get into that rhythm. I like finding that rhythm. 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:14.440 It's easier to keep going to ten k pace because 0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:16.160 five k pace is just a little bit you're kind 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:17.200 of constantly pushing yourself. 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.680 Yeah, it's like as if their masters were what's the 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:22.800 line from legalists from the Two Towers. 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:24.440 Oh, I don't remember, but I'm really run as if 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:26.760 their masters are at their backs. I'm reading the first 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:29.319 book in that trilogy right now. Are you enjoying the 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:30.480 heck out of it? Yeah, I'm almost done with it. 0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:32.520 I'll move on to two once it's available on Libby. 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:34.360 I remember you mentioned that, though, Yeah, we'll have to 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.040 catch up. I would say my favor right now is 0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:39.040 the half marathon because I'm just thirteen points one. I'm 0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:41.600 built more for long distances. I'm not super speedy, so 0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:43.640 the five k I'm like, I'm like huff and win 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:45.880 because I'm just not fast. But I'm like I can 0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:48.120 outlast people now, Yeah, I can just go long, just 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:52.560 keep going. Yeah, and uh, ultra marathon. Oh, I don't 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.280 know if I see that in my future. Yeah, yeah, 0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:57.880 I told I mean I would like to, But how 0:12:57.960 --> 0:13:00.760 much do I have? What it takes actually run fifty 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.160 k or one hundred k, I don't know. Man. It's 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:05.920 a lot of time required to train for that level 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:09.679 of run too, So I mean you have to have 0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:12.600 like ten hours a week set aside. Yeah, he's just 0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:14.360 for running, he's a trained for an. 0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:16.520 Ultra Not to mention all the time that the additional 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:18.760 time that you're spending icing yourself down, hitting it with 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:19.800 the massage, gun. 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:20.959 Stretching, all that stuff. 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:23.440 I could see myself being an old man ultra marathon 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:24.680 r ye, Like, once the kids are out of the 0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:26.280 house and I've got a lot more time on my hands, 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:28.680 I'm going to be one of those old grizzly just 0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:31.600 dudes that look like he's about to die till you die. 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:34.280 Yes, yeah, all right. Travis says, what's the best half 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:37.120 marathon in Georgia for runners training in New York weather? 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.599 My fiance and I want to eventually do one in 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.320 all fifty states, which is that's fun. That's a really 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:45.480 cool goal. So that's he's picking up on my favorite distance. 0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:48.240 I don't know the best one in Georgia, but I'll 0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:50.240 tell you my favorite one that I've run so far, 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.520 literally wearing the T shirt from it right now and back. 0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:56.240 They have a half in a Foal and it's a 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:59.360 trail half marathon up in the mountains, up in the mountains, 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:02.720 and so it's beautiful. It's in April, so it's a 0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:05.120 great time of year where it's kind of cool but 0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:08.280 it's not cold and it's not hot. I don't really 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.240 probably want to run one in like late July or 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.840 anything like that, so that that would be my tip run. 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:14.240 I'll run it with you if you come. 0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:17.400 The Thanksgiving Day half. That's the cooler temperatures as well 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.360 in Atlanta, which is wait, so it used to be 0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:22.800 the public's half, I'm pretty sure. Now it's in Vesco. 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:25.920 It's the QQQ half Marathon, so. 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:28.680 Now I think the public's one in that's in the spring. 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:30.560 Yeah, yeah, So it used to be the public's okay 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:33.040 half at Thanksgiving, but then a new buyer came in, 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:34.000 so that kind of feels like. 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:36.160 An appropriate how to money half marathon. 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:38.800 It's the QQQ half Marathon acquisition, which I don't even 0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:41.160 know what QQQ is. It's not a that's it's not 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:43.240 an S and P fIF hundred No, no, no, that's the 0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:46.880 technology focus is the it's or nasdak. 0:14:46.960 --> 0:14:49.680 Yeah. I think it literally reflects the nastac Yeah okay, 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:52.640 Kat said, what did you want to be when you 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:55.320 grew up? Joel? So did I have the tense correct that? 0:14:55.400 --> 0:14:57.800 What did you want to be? Yeaheah, okay, Now what 0:14:57.840 --> 0:14:59.480 do you want to be when you grow up? Currently? 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:04.240 As if you are still immature? Sometimes I say that. 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:05.960 Because sometimes I feel that way, where like what do 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:06.960 I want to be? What do I want to be 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:08.520 when I grow up? I still got plenty of life 0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:11.000 ahead of me. My favorite childhood. 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:12.800 Job that I aspired to is to become a baseball broadcaster, 0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:16.040 and that was I was a big baseball fan, but 0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:20.360 also just like talking, as you might have deduced at 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:22.440 this point if you've been listening for any length of time, 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:24.400 and so I was like, oh man, I get to 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:26.640 do both those things. One of my favorite sport and 0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:30.000 then this passion for delivering information to people. And I'm 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:32.560 so glad actually that I did not end up there. 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:34.960 I think I was really tired of baseball. I just 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:37.720 don't really follow sports much anymore, and so I think 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:39.200 I'd be like bored out of my mind if I 0:15:39.200 --> 0:15:40.720 was forced to. But now you follow money. 0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:43.320 Would you have followed sports if you were a baseball 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:46.720 ball cred? I mean the ability to broadcast from I 0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:48.480 guess I just think about all the different stadiums do. 0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:50.720 The different broadcaster? Did they travel at all? Or are 0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:53.680 you basically stationed like at a stadium? They traveled? They 0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:56.040 travel travel with the team. Yeah, see how which sounds cool? 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.800 How cool would be to go and you know it 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:00.960 would be announce a game? It would be I like 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:03.960 what we do more? Yeah? Well, mine, I feel. 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:05.320 Like I went through different phases, right because as a 0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:08.160 little kid, after watching Free Willy, who doesn't want to 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:09.160 be a marine biologist? 0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:12.400 Yes, so I definitely went through that phase well. 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.600 Going into college, I was pre med and so, like 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:17.960 a lot of science majors, wanted to be a doctor. 0:16:18.440 --> 0:16:21.640 But I remember multiple times as a kid knowing that 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:23.760 I wanted to own my own business. My mom had 0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:25.880 a bunch of friends who owned different stores and businesses 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.120 and stuff like that, and I remember always talking to 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:30.240 them and them saying, oh, yeah, do you want to 0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:32.720 own your own business someday, And at that point time, 0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:34.720 it was always like a brick and mortar, like some 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.800 sort of business that provides a service or sells something. 0:16:38.360 --> 0:16:40.720 Never thought that I would have a business like this. 0:16:40.840 --> 0:16:43.040 Yeah, but if you had a brick and mortar, would 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:44.160 it be a coffee shop? Yeah? 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:46.240 Like kind of like a third place sort of hangings, 0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:49.200 I think. So I'm trying to think what else? What 0:16:49.280 --> 0:16:50.880
