WEBVTT - Don’t get mad at me for saying this. 0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.360 Brother. Please hear me, Please hear me. This is not 0:00:02.440 --> 0:00:06.039 a knock on you or your life or your upbringing. 0:00:06.120 --> 0:00:08.920 The reason he says it, it's not to make our 0:00:08.920 --> 0:00:12.000 lives bad or in any way to great us. He 0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:27.479 does it because he's protecting us from your story. Welcome 0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:31.440 back to the podcast. I love this guest. Chad Warren 0:00:31.640 --> 0:00:36.879 sitting to my left. So good to have you. Father, husband, 0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:43.920 pastor at first Baptist Georgetown and now assistant sixth grade 0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:49.560 girls basketball coach. Okay, how's that going. It's interesting you 0:00:49.560 --> 0:00:52.520 you don't know what kind of patience is required when 0:00:52.560 --> 0:00:56.800 you are coaching sixth grade girls basketball. Okay, that's a 0:00:56.800 --> 0:00:59.720 new level. Maybe I'll be there one day. Yes, I 0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:02.600 hope you are, because it's a it's a process of 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:06.440 just kind of taking off the rough edges. Listen is 0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:10.960 in fourth, Yeah, she's in fourth. So I'm right behind you. 0:01:11.600 --> 0:01:14.920 Because even coaching, the difference between coaching my sons and 0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:19.080 my and then coaching my daughter so different. Just yeah, 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:22.399 I bet, I bet a different approach in every way. 0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:24.480 We have to add to your resume. Also, now you 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:30.320 are podcast host, yes, of the Take and Read podcast. 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:34.880 That's Take and A and D Read podcast that could 0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:37.600 I could. I just say that because it makes me 0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:40.720 feel good to say it's a spin off of this podcast. Yes, absolutely, 0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:46.160 you are Grandfather Godfather like. It is absolutely a spin off, 0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:49.160 and I hope, I hope it keeps spinning. It's been 0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:54.440 so fun. You've actually had Parker, me Bernie as guests. 0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:56.080 Those are the three that I know that have been 0:01:56.120 --> 0:02:02.880 on this microphone. So it is the in depth journey 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:05.560 that you could take after you hear this podcast and 0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:08.800 you go gyle le either they're talking about some some 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:12.600 Bible stuff, and then the Take and Read podcast goes 0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:15.720 into the actual Bible. You have it open. You're actually 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:21.640 going through scripture in a very entry level way, right, 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.000 And I don't mean that in any kind of negative way, 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:29.119 besides the fact that it's it's literally take the scripture, 0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:32.600 read it slowly, one line at a time, just a 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:36.920 few lines, and discuss what jumps off the page at you. 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:40.600 You're not you're not referencing some deep theological sermon or 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:42.280 you're just going what do you do? What do you 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:45.720 think this means? Yeah, I mean part of the format 0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.200 is that a guest and you've experienced this now a 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:50.720 couple of times. You are now our most frequent guest 0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:54.600 because you've been on there twice. But the idea is 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:57.040 that you don't know the passage. Yeah, because I don't 0:02:57.080 --> 0:02:59.320 want you to be able to study it in advance 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:05.919 research find cool nuanced things and definitions and commentaries. It's 0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:10.440 just two followers of the Lord breaking open the text 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:13.600 and reading it guided by the Holy Spirit. Let's have 0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:16.040 a conversation and let's apply this thing to our life. 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.800 So good Man and I listened on the way to Thanksgiving. 0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.680 I listened to the one with you and Parker. Is 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.880 that the most recent one? Well, yes, so, I mean 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:29.680 unless you count the one that you're in. Okay, that's 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:31.720 the most recent one. Okay, I got you. So I 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:33.040 listened to the one with you and Parker, and I 0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:37.320 was just I was. I really loved it. I really 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:40.000 loved the flow of it. So for you guys listening, 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:44.360 he releases on Wednesday, Take and Read podcast. Highly recommend it. 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:50.320 The format of this podcast is I answer your questions 0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.240 whatever they might be. It could be any subject. We 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:56.040 don't limit the subjects at all, and you'll find out 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.240 today that they are all over the map. But you 0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:01.520 could email Granger Smith podcasted email dot com and then 0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:05.000 Chad and I we'll go through this without notes, without preparation. 0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:07.840 Chad has not heard any of these questions, and I 0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:11.040 have only skimmed the first couple of lines and just 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.920 enough to categorize what they're what they're going to be. 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:17.159 And we we like to do it in a setting 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.040 where it's almost like we're sitting around a campfire. I mean, 0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:22.119 we're camping and there's two of us and we're sitting 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:24.320 on logs and there's enough there's a third person, and 0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:26.640 it goes you know, it's kind of quiet as we're 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:29.520 watching the fire crackle and you go, can I ask 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:31.680 you guys something? You know, something I've been kind of 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:34.760 wrestling with or something I'm excited about or a question 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:37.960 I'm really trying to iron out in my life. And 0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:42.880 we go, okay, let's walk through this. Yeah, And like 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:46.880 that setting, you're not always going to take your friend's advice, 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:51.400 but you know that there's no like, there's no motivation 0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:53.599 to tell you other than what's on their mind. And 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:55.960 they're they're gonna shoot straight with you. And that's what 0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:59.039 we're going to try to do, cause I mean it's 0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.160 inevitable we will get a question and we'll go, well 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:05.200 that I have ten more questions based on their question 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:07.839 about the scenario, and we just don't have that information. 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:09.919 So we just man, we just go with what we 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:11.680 got and take it or leave it. Let me make 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.159 a confession to you today, as I was prepping for 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:16.679 this podcast, one of the questions that I was looking 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:20.000 at had a number on it, a phone number on it, 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:24.360 and I was tempted to reach out to that phone 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:26.720 number and say, could we put you live on the podcast? 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:30.919 Oh yeah, so comment below if that's something that that 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:34.280 would might be interesting, if maybe once a podcast we 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:37.599 actually call them, that would be awesome. That'd be wild. 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:39.799 The only reason I didn't just jump on it today 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:42.600 was I was like, technically, how am I going to 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:44.440 hook the phone up? I tell, yeah, how am I 0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:47.400 going to like live while I'm doing this? And of 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:49.600 course I could figure it out, but but I wanted 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.080 to kind of just say it on the air with 0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:53.360 you too, that it is a possibility that one day 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:57.200 we could call somebody, read their question as they're on 0:05:57.279 --> 0:06:00.000 the phone, and then me and you walk through it 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:02.600 and they could respond back. It would be kind of good. 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:05.000 That would be Yeah, I'm up for that. That would 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.800 be awesome. All right, first question of the day. You 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:09.200 know I like to go with the light one. First 0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:13.040 I found this out septic line says my pups are 0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:16.200 frustrating sometimes. Hey Grange your My name is Austin. I 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:19.320 live in Virginia. Me and my fiance have two pups 0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:24.920 right now. One it's becoming really let me read this again. 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:28.239 We have two pups right now and it's becoming really difficult. 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:31.719 I don't have as much of an issue, but the 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.880 puppies have gotten to be a good size where my 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:36.200 fiance is finding it hard to control them. We love 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.239 them so much. We're taking we are taking it really 0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:42.960 hard and having so much trouble. We've contemplated selling them 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:45.159 to a good home. But I just can't help feeling 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:48.719 like I would be abandoning them just because the going 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:50.919 is getting tough. Any advice would be much appreciated. To 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:55.760 look forward to listening to your podcast. Austin, you have 0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:59.280 any dogs we have? Yeah, we have our dog and 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:02.120 we were never gonna to have dogs. And then I 0:07:02.240 --> 0:07:05.240 was in Africa and Uganda and I was up in 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:09.760 a mountain village there speaking to some pastors and after lunch, 0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:11.640 one of them came out with a box that had 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:15.040 a puppy in it, and it was a gift. Now, 0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:18.080 normally you can expect a goat or a chicken, which 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:21.320 is something that you would then butcher and eat. And 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:24.160 everyone I was with was like, you can't eat a dog. 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:26.080 What are you going to do with this thing? So 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:30.200 my wife, trying to kind of be good and supportive, 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:32.240 who had always said we're never going to own a dog, 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:36.400 partially because there's I mean, there's a lot of factors, 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:41.440 but so not that we don't like dogs, but she said, yeah, sure, 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.840 if you can get him home. We found a way 0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:45.800 to get him home. So we have a dog. He's 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:49.400 two years old. And I can relate to Austin's sentiment. 0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:55.720 Puppies are challenging. They are destructive. They are like, yeah, 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.600 obviously there's good methods of training, but they can still 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:02.840 just get they can fry straight. Yeah, totally, Austin. I 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:04.960 got a couple a couple of directions. I can go 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:06.920 with you here. First, I want to, just like Chad, 0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:10.600 I want to affirm your your struggle. I want to 0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:12.440 tell you I want to speak into you right now 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:16.440 that that rehoming this these dogs or this or one 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:21.000 dog is is not a knock on you. It's not bad. 0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:24.160 It's not a bad thing. You're you're not abandoning him 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:29.160 as long as you're rehoming properly, responsibly rehoming this dog, 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.760 and you're you're making a conscious effort to find the 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:35.880 right home. Hey, but there's nothing wrong with that. I 0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:39.280 would rather you do that. Then you just kindle this 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:42.240 dog and it just has a terrible life in your apartment. 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:46.320 But there's a couple of more components of this one. 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:51.199 What you're feeling is very normal and will go away 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.240 when they hit about two years old. Yeah, but somewhere 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:56.800 around two, there's like this magical time in a dog's 0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:59.640 life where that just become a good dog. You get 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:02.280 you get as a puppy, they're so cute, and then 0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:04.600 they get to this teenage age, which I have one 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:09.720 right now. She's about twenty months, eighteen twenty months something 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:12.040 like that, and it's just like they're like a teenager. 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:17.840 Just yes, like they know the rules, but they sometimes 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:20.920 will look at you and do the opposite. Yeah, you're like, 0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:26.720 what you know better? So you could I could suggest this, 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:29.160 but it costs money, but you could ship them away 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.320 to some kind of doggy boot camp. I know they 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:36.480 have them in Austin, and it's expensive, it's like a 0:09:36.559 --> 0:09:39.800 thousand bucks, but they're gone and they'll take them for 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.880 four to six weeks and they will come back a 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.480 new dog. And you have to do some training too, 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:48.320 because they are now accustomed to a certain type of 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:52.160 commands and treatment and triggers and so you've got to 0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:54.480 learn all that stuff. Yeah, and I'm like right there 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:57.480 on the fence right now with our youngest Luna, I'm like, 0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:01.439 I don't really want to spend thousand dollars on this dog. 0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:03.680 And from the very beginning, I was like, I'm not 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:05.240 going to do that. I'm not gonna do that to 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:06.960 the I'm going to train this dog myself. But then 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.560 I start touring and then we have a baby, and 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:12.480 I'm like, maybe I should ship this dog away from 0:10:12.520 --> 0:10:17.640 how she's She's like twenty months, so you're like four 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.199 to five months away from the chill out period. But 0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:24.319 this summer, I think she's gonna start chilling out. So 0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:27.960 so there's that Those are the different components. Or you 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:31.000 could do it yourself and just wait out the storm. 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:36.200 But I understand your frustration and you guys, you don't 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:38.400 want to be doing this with a baby. So if 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.600 you guys are planning on you know, if the wedding soon, 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.319 you got a baby coming soon, you don't want to 0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:45.920 be dealing with this and a newborn in the house. 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:50.240 So I would you could also much a much cheaper 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:52.440 option is you could do the puppy class with them 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.600 and do a group class. Yeah, you can do obedience training, yeah, 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:58.280 where you're there, and that's that's instead of a thousand bucks, 0:10:58.320 --> 0:11:01.000 that's like a hundred bucks, which is still a chunk 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:04.120 of change. But you show up with the dog and 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.959 like every Monday, you know, Mondays at six pm. I 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:11.000 remember doing that with a lab I had many years ago. 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:16.120 So and that's probably more accountability that the dog will 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:19.520 get trained and you will be an effective dog owner 0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:23.160 than like watching YouTube channels, because there are YouTube channels 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:24.800 that are like, you know, learn to train your dog 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:28.200 in seven steps, are it's not gonna work. So funny story, 0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:31.080 I remember taking my lab Rio. This was in two 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:32.920 thousand and two. I got this dog. I was living 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:37.800 by myself in Nashville, got this dog, and you know, 0:11:37.880 --> 0:11:39.800 it was the great, great idea of getting this puppy, 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:42.160 and he was awesome, and then he hits this teenage stage. 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:43.480 I was like, oh, grab, I'm gonna sign him up. 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:46.240 We're gonna go to a camp together. So he signed 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:51.000 up for this this training every Monday, and day one 0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:54.040 I showed up with him and they had they had 0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:57.640 this table, this like folding table set up with all 0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:00.320 these papers and they were taken. There was a line 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:02.680 of people and everyone was signing up, you know, to 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.480 join the class. And so I go up there with 0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:08.199 Rio on the leash, and he sees another dog and 0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:11.120 he takes off and his leash wraps around that falling table. 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:14.240 It just whips it up, whips it together. The whole 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.199 table collapses and all the papers go everywhere. That's like 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:20.320 a movie scene. You got the most challenging dog, and 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:22.760 this is what happens at doggy training. And all I 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:26.760 could say was now you know why I'm here, and 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.040 everyone just kind of laughed. I mean, in any other 0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:31.960 situation it would have been terrible, except for the doggy 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:35.120 training class. We go, yeah, well, welcome, welcome to the class. 0:12:35.400 --> 0:12:39.200 Good question, awesome, good luck to you brother. One more 0:12:39.240 --> 0:12:41.760 easy one Granger. I was wondering what you put in 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:44.880 your coffee every morning? Do you drink black, cream, sugar, etc. 0:12:45.240 --> 0:12:47.440 I love what you do. Thanks for thanks for always 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.160 being there for us fans. This comes from Michael, So 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.680 keep in mind this is he's just fresh off of 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:56.640 brushing his teeth and they're minty clean. That's right. If 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:58.920 you want to know the backstory of that goes, check 0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:01.640 out the first episode of the Take and Read podcast. 0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:05.520 We hear about his morning routine. So he's got mint 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:07.960 on the mouth, he's minty. So what do you pair 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:12.959 with mint in your coffee? Oh? Chad loves the story, 0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:15.720 but I like to drink drink coffee after I brushed 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:18.320 my teeth in the morning. Comment below, do you brush 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:22.040 your teeth after you drink coffee or before? I like 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:24.199 to wake up and brush my teeth and then drink coffee. 0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:27.240 I know it's weird. Obviously Chad really thinks it's weird. 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:32.440 I've gotten more comments about that than anything else in 0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:34.480 the emails that I get. And now people in the 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.000 subject line will put the order of events. They'll put 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:41.600 like brush, coffee brush or double brush. Yeah there's some 0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:45.200 double brush lash there. Yeah, that's rush when the gums. 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:47.480 And some people are like, well, it depends on the 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:50.040 time of day, Like for Granger, it's first thing in 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.720 the morning. But some people are like, I brush my 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:55.240 teeth first because I don't drink coffee for another couple hours. 0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:58.680 I'm like, well, that makes sense. Some are moms that just, 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.080 you know, the morning happens and then they're getting kids 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:04.640 to school and things are happening. But you it's like 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:09.440 you wake up, guzzle water, brush your teeth, then get 0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:11.400 ready for your nice cup of coffee. So what do 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:14.679 you put in your Okay, okay, I don't put anything 0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:18.760 in my coffee, just straight black. And I used to 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:22.400 I've gone through phases in my life where I'll go 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:27.560 I'll get really into like drip coffee or French press. 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:29.600 And I used to do this on the bus. I 0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:33.320 would get like really good beans and then grind them 0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:37.040 and then French press that are dripped and get really 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:40.560 into it. And I always go back to the cake cup, 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:46.280 the curried cup. I'm just like, man, there's luckily, I 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:50.600 feel like I'm very blessed in this aspect. I don't 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:52.760 I'm not a coffee snob and I'm definitely not a 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:57.960 wine snob, like, thank god, I don't have a high, 0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:03.760 high falutin taste for right, that can get spendy gosh. Yeah, 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:07.000 And same with coffee, like I'll take I mean, I 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:08.880 don't want the cheapest stuff you got, but give me 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:11.480 the next level up from your cheapest stuff, I'll drink 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:14.480 it black good to go. Yeah, that's so good. Do 0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.200 you visit like when you're on tour, do you visit 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:20.480 coffee shops? Yeah? Yeah, we Actually I do like coffee 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:23.560 shops because usually it's the first thing that's open in 0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:26.480 the town that we go to park and it's seven 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:28.800 in the morning, I get up the bus and the 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:31.120 coffee shop is the only place that's opened, so you 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:33.400 can go in there. You can you can get like 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.080 maybe a small breakfast like a taco or something, and 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:39.240 then a cup of coffee. And I will say that 0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:41.720 if it's I never try to drink a coffee after 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.200 three o'clock in the afternoon, that will affect my nighttime. 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.520 But if it's like two o'clock, one o'clock, and I'll 0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:49.800 go to a coffee shop, I could do cream then, 0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:54.880 like okay, I could do a cappuccino. Yeah, but first 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:57.360 thing in the morning, it's always black. What do you 0:15:57.640 --> 0:16:00.800 do You ever drink coffee pregame? Like before a show? 0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:04.800 Do you have to think about what you eat and 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:07.600 drink in order, like how that's gonna affect your energy? 0:16:08.040 --> 0:16:10.640 And there's times when I do. There's times when I 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:16.680 had a three am, you know, airport call, and then 0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:19.440 the show's at ten pm that night, and I didn't 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:22.240 have time for a nap, and I'll just I'll have 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:25.800 to weigh it out, like do I want to have 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:29.080 a have a better show with a kick of caffeine, 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:31.320 or do I want to make sure I have a 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:34.520 good night's sleep tonight? And sometimes I could weigh it 0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:36.520 out where it's like, man, I'm so tired, I'm gonna 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:38.960 go to sleep after the show no matter what. So 0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:41.000 a cup of coffee right for the show, give me 0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:44.760 energized for that ninety minutes? Yea, And it literally does. 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:47.120 It will energize me just for that show, and then 0:16:47.480 --> 0:16:50.200 I can come off the stage and still crash pretty quick. 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:53.000 I go, I go to sleep fast after my show. Okay, 0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:56.480 we we were introduced, my wife and I were introduced 0:16:56.520 --> 0:16:59.840 the concept of a Napa Chino. Okay, now I don't 0:16:59.920 --> 0:17:04.679 know if this is true, but we believe Again, I 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:07.359 don't know that this is true, but that it takes 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:10.600 about twenty minutes for caffeine to hit the system. So 0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:15.200 there's something about if you like just down a cup 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:18.520 of coffee or some sort of caffeine without sugar in it, 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:22.879 and then can go and sleep for twenty minutes, you'll 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:26.560 wake up feeling like eight hours of sleep just you've 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:31.360 done this. Yeah, it works sometimes sometimes if I can 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:35.200 get to sleep and it's a good sleep, twenty minutes, bam, 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:39.080 I wake up and I feel restored. Interesting the Napa Chino. 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:41.359 The key is you can't have sugar in that because 0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:43.040 you're not going to fall asleep. You don't have sugar 0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:46.040 regardless of any No, that stuff bad for you. Yeah, 0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:48.480 we can talk about it another time. Hey, side note, 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:50.240 I think I might have told you this before. There's 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:55.439 been scientific studies on rats. You can addict rats, if 0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:58.560 that's what is that a word? Addict? You could make 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:03.160 rats addicted to cocaine in a cage and introduce sugar. 0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:06.200 They will reject the cocaine and go to the sugar 0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:10.160 every time. Come on, what does he say? What does 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:12.280 that say about us, Right, what does that say about 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:16.720 our sugar addictions? Worse than cocaine? Yeah? All right, let's 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:19.880 get you another question. Is that one of those comments 0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:23.840 that will make the tagline of the worst than cocaine? Maybe? 0:18:23.920 --> 0:18:29.560 So the thumbnail yes, okay, this one says friends parentheses 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:33.320 for Granger and pastor Chad. Oh right on high Granger 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.800 and Pastor Chad. I'm right outside of Seattle, Washington. I'm 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:40.240 turning sixteen in June, and I go to a good 0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:43.359 sized church, about fifteen hundred members. That is good size, 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:47.320 especially for Seattle. I have had I have not had 0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:50.040 any friends for about four to five years ever since 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:53.199 becoming homeschooled. I have a few people I talk to, 0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:55.719 but none I'm close with because we have nothing in common. 0:18:56.080 --> 0:19:00.960 They like cameras and businesses. I like snowmobiling, biking, hunting, 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:05.000 and scuba diving. When I talk about anything that they 0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:07.760 don't like, they get annoyed and board. How can I 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:10.280 find people I have more things in common with and 0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:18.360 make friends? Timmy, it comes from Timmy and so Timmy sixteen, 0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:24.800 sixteen years old, homeschool so probably sixteen is what junior? Yeah, sophomore, 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:28.439 sophomore sophomore junior year. So man, right off the bat, 0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:31.520 Right off the bat, I would say, I would say, 0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:36.160 these hobbies that you mentioned, where's he from? Seattle, snowma, biling, 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:39.840 dirt biking, hunting, and scuba diving. Doesn't it feel like, Timmy, 0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:42.640 you could go to the places where these things are 0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:48.360 done and find like minded people. Right off the bat. Yeah, 0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:50.640 and it sounds like the people that he does laugh with, 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:53.879 whether it's at church or it's because he goes to 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.360 a pretty large church he said, fifteen hundred people. Yep, 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:59.440 it's you know, a youth group setting, or maybe it's 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:02.119 within the home school kind of world that he's in 0:20:02.160 --> 0:20:04.760 a homeschool co op that he just tends not to 0:20:04.840 --> 0:20:08.840 be doing life with the same people that enjoy the 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:11.040 stuff that he does outside of that. So I can 0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:15.200 see the challenge. Sure, that's definitely challenging. Yeah, I see 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:18.080 the challenge, Timmy. I would go to you got winter 0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:21.720 coming up? This this this email came yesterday, so we're relevant. 0:20:22.040 --> 0:20:24.480 We got winter time coming up. I would go to 0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:27.479 the mountain, and what's the mountain right outside of Seattle. 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:32.960 It's beautiful mountain. Rin Near is south of Seattle. There's 0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:35.399 a good ski resort not far from him called Mission Ridge. 0:20:35.440 --> 0:20:37.639 The Mission Ridge, I'm a fan of. It's you have 0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:40.480 to kind of go over the cascades. I would go there, 0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:45.080 and I would go to the snowmobiling place, the rental place, 0:20:45.160 --> 0:20:46.880 you know, and I would go up to the dude 0:20:46.920 --> 0:20:48.920 that works there and just go, hey, my name is 0:20:48.960 --> 0:20:52.600 Timmy Man. I love snowmobiling, and I don't have anybody 0:20:52.680 --> 0:20:55.040 to do it with me. Yeah, is there anyone that 0:20:55.080 --> 0:20:58.160 comes in here every day? And he's probably going to go, Man, 0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:02.280 everyone that comes here left snow. Yeah, come come back 0:21:02.280 --> 0:21:04.320 here tomorrow at three o'clock. We have a group going. 0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:07.840 There's seven of us, and we take the hard trail. Yeah, 0:21:07.960 --> 0:21:11.320 you know, and it's we go overnight, we camp, and 0:21:11.359 --> 0:21:14.320 you're gonna you're just gonna fall face first into this 0:21:14.359 --> 0:21:18.520 group of friends that love what you do. And I 0:21:18.560 --> 0:21:21.520 would say too that if you if you found that 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:27.359 there was maybe somebody that was even slightly receptive to 0:21:27.600 --> 0:21:30.200 the times that you talked about snowmobiling or hunting or 0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:34.320 just outdoor adventures, invite them and totally just figure out 0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:37.000 a way to make it where it costs them nothing, Like, Hey, 0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:40.040 just come with me, have you ever gone hunting, or 0:21:40.080 --> 0:21:42.040 have you ever stalked an animal? Or have you ever 0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.960 gone snowmobiling. I'd love for you to be my guest. 0:21:45.000 --> 0:21:46.480 I want you to check it out because it is 0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:49.320 so cool, and just see if there's somebody that's been 0:21:49.400 --> 0:21:52.840 somewhat receptive and invite them along. I got something for you. 0:21:53.600 --> 0:21:55.040 Just just just occurred to me when you were saying it. 0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:57.160 So for some reason, I was wondering why he said, 0:21:57.800 --> 0:21:59.800 these people have nothing in common with me. They like 0:21:59.800 --> 0:22:02.879 cas and businesses. It's weird that he said that. But 0:22:03.000 --> 0:22:05.680
