Rich Chelson:
Now, you know, that is that is kinda weird because I have thoughts, but they are not brutal.
[00:00:05] Bryan Goodwin:
Hey, man. Hello, and welcome to 2 grumpy Vets and a duuude. I'm your host, Brian, and I am here with Rich and the duuude. We are back yet again. And this time, we're actually adding a little extra to the whole thing. If you happen to be over on Twitch or you wanna follow us on Twitch, and we will talk about why it is a typo, but there is a typo in our name on Twitch. But we we go over to 2 grumpy guests, and and and you'll find us there. It's just grumpy without the V because, apparently, I didn't hit the v hard enough. Stupid finger syndrome. Stupid finger stupid finger syndrome. So yeah. Yeah. Apparently, you got I've got about we've got about another month and a week or so before I can actually change the name and add the v and and and and all that. So so anyhow so yeah. Yep. You can y'all can find us over there. We are going live. You can actually see our ugly mugs live and in person. You will catch a couple of extra, oddities that happen that, may get end up cut being cut out of the, of the final episode once we go through and do the editing.
[00:01:12] Rich Chelson:
That can always happen. But No. I know. It does sometimes. Yeah. Sometimes.
[00:01:17] Bryan Goodwin:
So, yeah, if if Yeah. I catch myself picking my nose without without any, attention, then I'm like, oh, yeah. I gotta cut that out. So
[00:01:26] Rich Chelson:
Yes. Well, I mean, normally, I do the audio, so I can't tell if you're picking your nose or not unless you say something. And then and then and then, normally, I just leave it in because it's audio.
[00:01:38] Bryan Goodwin:
So it doesn't sound like anybody can see you. Unless it makes a really, really vocal sound of, oh, wow.
[00:01:49] Duuude-Ron :
What's that, Dan? Just just think of it like this. You can pick your nose. You can pick your butt, but you can't pick your family.
[00:02:00] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, don't think that's how that really goes. I can say pick your nose, pick your maybe pick your friends, but you can't pick your friend's nose. That's true too. I don't
[00:02:12] Rich Chelson:
I'm out. I don't know.
[00:02:16] Bryan Goodwin:
So, anyhow, guys, we are 3, 3 on, not quite quite there, but we're we're the, we're 3 gen x, guys who are also happen to be, be be bet same time. And, yeah. Yeah. We just are together here to have a have a good time, talk to each other because this is our just our normal meeting time. We sit back, get around to to yabber and talk to each other and, and and have a good time just to commiserate and intentionally live with live each other's lives through through each other. So it is just a means of us being able to maintain connection. And that's one of the biggest things that we do. And we, what does this show about? It is about just about anything we find. We'll be we perusing through the Internet, and all of a sudden, we'll find a news story that just fascinates the booger out of us. We'll go ahead. We'll we'll talk it out. And sometimes it gets a little on the political side. Other times, not so much political. Other times, it's just, you know, we're talking out of our ass. And so it it is what it is. And so yeah. Yeah. So now And and and, plus at times,
[00:03:30] Rich Chelson:
we, we talk about stuff that's happened in, in our daily lives, you know? So, you know, I mean, it, it just depends on on what we're gonna talk about because we try and frame it before we start the show, but, yeah, that, yeah, about, what, 2 minutes in, we're squirreled anyways. Oh, yeah. Yeah. We're we're
[00:03:51] Bryan Goodwin:
think we know where we're gonna start, and we wind up not being anywhere close to that. So so but, yeah, so, our our our mass comedian, of the night, otherwise known as dude? What have you been up to here recently this past week?
[00:04:09] Duuude-Ron :
No. It's been about the same. Just, you know, driving my normal routes, and now we're having fun with the heat. So and in Texas, it's either damn hot or it's damn cold. There's really no in between. But it's June, and we're getting into the damn hot, so it's like and it's only gonna get hotter.
[00:04:29] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. I'm never gonna bitch about
[00:04:31] Duuude-Ron :
never gonna bitch about the heat. I mean, yeah, I could bitch about it. I'd bitch about the cold too, but guess what? God's in control of that, and he's not asking. He's just gonna tell you, it's gonna be hot today. And then you're gonna say, damn. It was hot today. However, I did learn something on the new ELD system that we have in our trucks. It is like, is not an iPad, but it's the it's a pad based system. Tablet. Mhmm. Tablet. There you go. I'm sorry. And Yo. You're good. Today, be and because I didn't drive today, I was at the plant today, but I had to drive and drop off a trailer that we were turning in to get maintenance done on it, so I had to log in to my vehicle.
And then when I went to go log out of my vehicle later that day, the tablet was telling me you can't do any functions because the tablet is overheating. Yeah. And the only thing I could think to myself is, great. If I don't have the air conditioning on inside of the truck or something happens and it gets too hot inside the truck, my ELD is just gonna say, I'm done. I'm tired. I'm done working. I guess you it's time to pull out the paper logs.
[00:05:57] Bryan Goodwin:
Almost. Almost. But yeah. Yeah. The, for those who don't, don't know, Ron and and myself, are both still continuing professional truck drivers. That's what we do for a living. We hop in hop in our 18 wheelers and and carry products from, from one place to another. And, we are regulated by the, Department of Transportation, and we are actually members of the most regulated, unregulated industry there is. And part of that is the electronic log, device, which is what ELD stands for. And so yeah. And there's no one's been real happy with this thing except for, like, the unions. They seem to like it quite a bit, but, those who actually work to make money are not fans of this thing at all.
Because, because it does. It reg it restricts you from, from being able to get, where you need. And, you know, you have, like, one of the biggest problems I ever had with it was, I'm one where if I start feeling tired because, you know, I may go off, screw up something on my diet, you know, have a have a ham sandwich or something like that. And all the all the carbs from the and sugars from the, from the bread all wear off. And so, you know, somewhere along around 2, 3 o'clock in the afternoon, sometimes you get kinda tired. And I'd like to just stop, take a little 30 minute power nap, and be up and running, go again, and be just fine. And, yeah, there's, there's times that you really can't do that. I mean, they've made it easier here with the last couple years, but back when that, that 8 hour, rule came out, yeah, it was it was a it was a big pain on the butt because it you had to you had to, well, you still have to stop after 8 hours if you are. But now if you stop for for the required 30 minutes, you don't have to be off duty. You just stop. And and if you did, it takes you an hour and a half to get loaded, then hooray, Hoopsah. You're you're you're, you're all topped up on your 8 hour clock, and you can start running again. Oh, they they changed it then. Good. Yeah. Yeah. They changed it, thankfully. But they're for a while. I mean and there's still times. I mean, like today, hell, I was driving. I knew I wasn't gonna get to my destination, tonight. And so I was like, oh, well, I'm I feel kinda I feel kinda sluggish, feel kinda kinda droopy eyed. I'd rather, make sure that I get my product to, to the destination. So I'll stop, find a truck stop, stop, pull in, stop, and again, take a 30, 45 minute power nap, and and away I go. Right. Right. Now, dude now, dude,
[00:08:51] Rich Chelson:
what else was he saying about your, your tablet there?
[00:08:56] Duuude-Ron :
Oh, that because my vehicle was not being used today and the inside because it's hot outside, the inside of the cabin is hot, The tablet is telling me that it is overheating. Yep. You know, now is it gonna if something happens on the inside of my cab where the air conditioning breaks, is my tablet gonna overheat? I know I'm gonna overheat. Hell.
[00:09:20] Rich Chelson:
No. It's possible. Very possible.
[00:09:23] Duuude-Ron :
Is it gonna tell me, gee, I'm overheating. I'm not gonna work anymore, so I guess you just get to, do everything by paper, and I'm not gonna do anything. Well, that's something I found out new today on my system.
[00:09:36] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, I bet you more than anything, what you'll find out with that is because the critical part of an ELD system is that it cannot leave the truck. And that means that there the actual device that they stick underneath the underneath your, usually, it goes underneath the dash, but mine actually just sits on sits on, on top of the dash and is visible to everybody.
[00:10:03] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. That it placed all of ours so that it was easier to do maintenance if they needed to change that. Right. You know, hub as far as, you know, my overall system in my truck. You know, they put them on our dashes as well. And that very well could be that that piece of electronics is overheating and not the actual
[00:10:28] Rich Chelson:
tablet itself. No. No. No. It's not. No. It's it's the actual tablet. Tablet. Yeah. Yeah. It's the tablet. I don't know. Was because when that,
[00:10:37] Bryan Goodwin:
that the device that's connected, it actually will it it stores all the data, and it's sending it on up to the Internet into the cloud where it, your your tablet, when it cools off, will actually just pull all that information down. Because ours ours I use the the Samsera, system on on my this truck. And so, all I have to do is I just actually, I just use my phone as my ELD log, log shower and where I make all the changes and put in that I'm, you know, getting loaded or unloading or taking a break or eating or or, you know, drop and hook and or whatever other type of, term that they wanna make except for daily reset. They wanna make sure that you have, it's required to put a comment whenever you change status, when you manually change the status, except they don't have anything for overnight. If you go to off duty or sleep of birth, you have to put something in there. But they don't have, you know, daily reset or cycle reset. What's the purpose of you stopping for?
[00:11:45] Duuude-Ron :
Right. So Okay. Well, and see, with you being over the road where I am not over the road Yeah. You can see. Yeah. We're on a reset cycle every 24 hours. Okay. Yeah. So we we can run when we clock in, we have 14 hours. Yep. 11 of those, you can drive. 3 of them on duty. You know, doing a pre trip inspection of the vehicle, loading, unloading, all that other stuff. But we get 11 hours that we can drive, and then we have to take a 10 hour break Yep. And then for 5 days and then 36. So ours is just a little bit of what difference of what yours is and mine will actually Honestly, yours doesn't sound that much different really.
[00:12:36] Bryan Goodwin:
Because I mean, I've got the I've got yeah. I've got, in a 24 hour period, I've got 14 hours of on duty time. Of that 14 hours of of on duty time, I've got 11 hours of driving. So there's that 3 hour extra that you were talking about. Yeah. But,
[00:12:55] Rich Chelson:
Brian, what what, what a dude was saying, though, I think I I might be wrong here. Dude has a reset every 24 hours. You don't,
[00:13:06] Bryan Goodwin:
you run all weekend and work on a 34 hour. Reset. Well, he's he was saying that at the at the end that, he has to take a 36 hour, break and and do a cycle reset.
[00:13:18] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. The overall the weekly cycle reset, we have to have a
[00:13:22] Bryan Goodwin:
36 hour break, which is because you only you're only allowed 70 hours in in the week.
[00:13:28] Rich Chelson:
So Yeah. Well well, with dude, though, with him being under the well, you see, I don't know. I don't know. The rules changed so much after I stopped. You know? Because when when I was driving oh, yeah. We could do whatever we wanted, basically. But, you know, we still had, you know, the 11 and 14 and all like that and the 70 hours and 8 days and then the 34 hour reset, which I freaking hated that. Oh, yeah. Because I always lost money then, but either way, you know, and
[00:14:03] Bryan Goodwin:
they've changed it even more now. So Yeah. Yeah. You've got even a if you're if you stay if you're driving a truck and you're within a 150 miles of home base
[00:14:14] Rich Chelson:
Mhmm.
[00:14:15] Bryan Goodwin:
And and that's what we call on those kids. I'm like, yeah. Okay. So you have actually miles. Right. Yeah. So you should be able to do drive for 12 hours. You could do 12 hour shifts is what I've under always understood on the 150 mile rule.
[00:14:36] Duuude-Ron :
No. We're it's 11 and 11, I can create. 11 and 3, 14, and then back our shutdown.
[00:14:43] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, okay. Man. Again, they the the government Maybe it's just air gas. Can't keep the can't keep a a rule for no longer than 30 minutes anyhow. So Well, true. But, hey, Brian,
[00:14:56] Rich Chelson:
That could be an, air gas rule too.
[00:14:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I guess they Because
[00:15:02] Rich Chelson:
because the thing is on the rules, they can't change the DOT rules,
[00:15:07] Bryan Goodwin:
but a freaking company rule, it can be stronger than the DOT rules. Yeah. And the and the DOT won't say nothing about it. No. They they won't throw a fit about that. Right. If it restricts the driver from being able to do more, they they're the deal Department of Transportation is all for it. Shit. Yeah. Yes. And that's and that's where my company,
[00:15:28] Duuude-Ron :
when they dropped the 30 minute mandatory lunch break, as you would call it, yeah, After 8 hours, we still have to do that. Even though DOT, we don't have to do that. Air gas, you have to. My yeah. Air gas, we have to after 8 hours, we have to take a break. K. Yeah. Regardless. Within the first 8 hours.
[00:15:57] Bryan Goodwin:
So is that take a break, or is that kinda like the way the DOT works where you can, as long if it'll like, if you're over at, at your destination and it's it takes an hour to unload, that's considered a 30 minute break.
[00:16:13] Duuude-Ron :
Well, yeah. If I'm sitting in the truck and say I'm having my lunch and I go off duty, yeah, as long as I'm in the off duty status for 30 minutes,
[00:16:26] Bryan Goodwin:
then I'm good for another 8 hours. So do you wanna off duty and go on ahead and get yourself unloaded while you're while you're truck thinks you're off duty? Yeah. Because I'm not touching anything. Good boy. Good boy. Alright. Long long as you'll be on a proper or proper truck driver, been to the rules ever so slightly.
[00:16:45] Duuude-Ron :
Well, see, I'm not telling you that. Break them.
[00:16:50] Rich Chelson:
I didn't binge. Yeah. I broke the shit out of them.
[00:16:56] Duuude-Ron :
Sam. When I say no one, I was a 2. You were a 1 percenter.
[00:17:02] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. You yeah. You can say that. I mean, I I have freaking paid for it, quite a bit though. I mean, I'd get caught every now and again, not all the time, but every now and again. And I'll tell you what, those fines add up.
[00:17:19] Bryan Goodwin:
They can. Yeah.
[00:17:20] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. Yeah.
[00:17:22] Bryan Goodwin:
Absolutely. So so, Rich, how about you? What have you been up to?
[00:17:28] Rich Chelson:
Well, I finally got over my ordeal. My my my house ordeal.
[00:17:35] Bryan Goodwin:
I was like, oh, no. Yeah. No. I it Your ordeal, What do we do? You spend time at the hopsicle? Or
[00:17:44] Rich Chelson:
No. No. It, yeah. As I as as as I have said on a few other previous episodes, you know, I was working on buying a house and waiting on the appraisal, which took 27 days, and it was only supposed to take 10 days, but, you know, leave it to the VA appraiser to get lost, I guess. So, yep. Oh, the appraisal finally come through and I was I was under contract for 125,000 for this house, 2 bedroom house. The appraisal came in at a 102,000. And so, normally normally, the seller does not find out the appraisal, what it comes in at. Okay?
Right. Unless unless they pay for it, which this guy is actually paying for it. So, you know, but, and and since we had a contract, I found out that, in order instead of just writing up another contract, we'd do an amendment, you know, and make a new offer of 102,000.
[00:18:58] Duuude-Ron :
Right. But
[00:19:00] Rich Chelson:
but, I was talking with my realtor, Melinda, and, we decided to or I decided, actually, to, let the seller know the price I was gonna offer him before we did the paperwork. You know? Because this way here, give him time to know him and think about it. You know, if he's good with it, fine. If not, he can back out. Well
[00:19:26] Bryan Goodwin:
Right.
[00:19:27] Rich Chelson:
And, so I told him that. I think that was what? On Tuesday And I think Wednesday, got a call and, yeah, the seller said, no. I ain't I ain't selling it that low. So so I am currently not buying a house anymore.
[00:19:50] Bryan Goodwin:
Wanna be
[00:19:51] Rich Chelson:
homeless? No. No. No. No. I'm not homeless. I still have I still have a place. It's not a place I wanna be, but you know what? I'm thankful I have it.
[00:20:02] Bryan Goodwin:
Right.
[00:20:03] Rich Chelson:
You know? But, but, yeah, it just yeah. It wasn't meant to be. And, so, yeah, I'm gonna sit back and wait and probably look around, see if I can't find something else, something a little bigger and everything. So and I did find out though this, second time around since, since the loan officer ladies, since I have all my information from this first go around, the second time is not as hard
[00:20:35] Bryan Goodwin:
because
[00:20:36] Rich Chelson:
Good. They'll just they'll just transfer all the numbers they have. They just might need to, update a few things. But and and the approval I was approved for, will last for like 4 months. So
[00:20:56] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, really? I figured it was a lot longer than that.
[00:20:58] Rich Chelson:
No. Well, yeah, no. I didn't know. And I had asked him. I'm like, I'm like, how long is this good for? And she said, normally 120 days. So I'm like, okay, that's cool. I almost had to take my, shoes off to count that high, but you know what? I muddled through. So, yeah. And that's, and honestly, the last couple of days, I've just been playing games. I've been playing Cyberpunk 2077.
[00:21:31] Bryan Goodwin:
So what part are you up to? Have you done the big heist yet? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I did that. Oh, okay. So you're just going through doing the side quest, or you're going through the main story?
[00:21:41] Rich Chelson:
I don't know what the hell I'm doing, dude. Okay.
[00:21:45] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay. On the on the game
[00:21:47] Rich Chelson:
I'm just shoot, guy the fuck. I walk up if if if I walk up and there's dudes that are yellow, you know, and not blue or green, if they're yellow, I shoot them on the spot and start a war. I freaking kill them.
[00:22:02] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. It's And ask questions later. What's that? And ask questions later.
[00:22:07] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Hell no. I just walk away, dude. Don't even worry about that. Yeah. Just just go off. Great. Yoink everything that's that's that's not attached to, attached to them and and, and and walk off. So
[00:22:20] Rich Chelson:
Oh, I did I did learn one thing. Do not shoot a police officer.
[00:22:28] Bryan Goodwin:
Every time you shoot, do how how many stars you got so far?
[00:22:32] Rich Chelson:
Oh, I don't I I don't know how many stars I have, but I am a Well, I mean, how many whenever you were being pursued by the police after accidentally shooting them,
[00:22:42] Bryan Goodwin:
how long you you have a you have a wanted level, and that's in in number of stars.
[00:22:48] Rich Chelson:
What's the highest you've gotten on there? I I don't know. Okay. I I haven't even seen it. All all I know is is Top right hand corner. Okay. I'll I'll I'll have to look when I have it on. But but all I know is is I was seeing this dude and, I mean, it was a long way away. So I thought it was a bad guy. And he turned red. Well, no. No. I thought it was a bad guy because there was other bad guys. So I shot him, come to find out it was a cop.
[00:23:18] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah.
[00:23:19] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. And then, yeah, the cops flooded me. And, and I mean, I honestly, I freaking held out pretty good for a little bit, but yeah. Yeah. In the end, I I have found a way to, I just stopped the game. I just hit the PlayStation plus button and shut it down.
[00:23:35] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay. Well, there's things you could do. Alright? First off, if you find you out you've shot the cop and and they're coming after you, you can run. And all you have to do is break line of sight with them for a particular amount of time. And that's why you wanna look up, look up in the top right hand corner because you'll see your stars, what your one indolipital is. And when that thing starts flashing, you it'll, it'll start flashing and it'll go faster and faster and faster, and then you'll hear a little little chime noise, and that drops. And the police could be standing right next to you on the opposite side. And when it drops, it's funny because, you know, these guys are all looking for you. And the moment they see you, they know who you are. Mhmm. But the moment your wanted level disappears and you've, successfully avoided the cops, you could walk right past them and they're just like, alright, dude. Okay. Just a normal day. This
[00:24:31] Rich Chelson:
Well well, well, you see, it's funny because because at first, when I found out that I shot that cop I mean, and and this was purely on accident. I walked up there and I was like, oh, shit. I shot a cop. And then all of a sudden, I started getting shot at it. So I turned around and started shooting back. Only it was nothing but cops. Yeah. Hi, motherfuckers.
[00:24:53] Bryan Goodwin:
You know? I was like, hey. I I Woah.
[00:24:57] Rich Chelson:
Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. I did not mean to do this. Yeah. No. We're gonna fight it out.
[00:25:03] Bryan Goodwin:
And And yeah. And you will find out when you start attacking, like, a group of maelstroms or something that are hanging out in a blow group, or if they are actually gonna shoot out with cops, and you'll find them from time to time and shoot ass with the cop. If you accidentally shoot a cop, the cops ignore Baelstrom, the other the other gang that was that they were attacking. And everybody turns their attention on you. So
[00:25:30] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. No. That was so so yeah. No. And, yeah. Yeah. I did the big heist.
[00:25:36] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay.
[00:25:38] Rich Chelson:
I've I've got another 2 or 3
[00:25:40] Bryan Goodwin:
stories that I'm running right now. So Okay. Well, the way the way you tell is if you're doing the main story, the yellow circles with the exclamation points are the main story missions. Yeah. I don't think I'm doing those. I just I've I've got I would on honestly,
[00:25:57] Rich Chelson:
what I would recommend started.
[00:25:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. What I would recommend, as a whole, just start doing all the side missions and beef yourself out to where you become just Uber Dude. So you become just just super v. Just start doing like, you'll start up in Watson and just work your way down all the way through there and and do all the little all the little missions, all the fixer mission the fixer missions can be actually really cool. And kinda do just do your exploring, because you'll find some you'll find some really cool things and some really neat little mini stories inside those those side missions. Like, you'll find this. Skippy the AI gun is, is a fun one.
[00:26:45] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Yeah. No. I I mean, I'm just I'm just doing missions and and trying to follow the stories as best as I can, and then and then I freaking walk around and shoot people if, if, you know, well, like, like there's this one dude I come walking around the corner. The dude's already yellow. He sees me, looks me, and turns red. I shot him. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, no. Sorry, dude. I just walked up. Didn't didn't even walk him, say nothing to him. I just walked around the corner and he turned red fixing to shoot me. I'm like, yeah, about that. And
[00:27:21] Bryan Goodwin:
that was about a home. That started to start getting people angry at you just because you're standing there in the middle of the road.
[00:27:28] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. It's like, I'm gonna shoot your house. And I did. And then and then 3rd, 4 of his friends turned and started shooting. I'm like, alright, boys. It's done. Let's go. So yeah.
[00:27:40] Bryan Goodwin:
But yeah. No. Absolutely. Start do all the little blue, side missions first, until you get until you get, like, Watson all cleared out. And, it get all your handler missions, or not handler, fixer missions, and, get all the little blue markers taken care of. And then then do your if there's any yellows that are in that area, get those done. You'll find the experience to be a lot more fun, and you'll get a lot more done. Also, don't forget to pay attention to your phone.
[00:28:16] Rich Chelson:
Oh, yeah. I know. That thing, I got, like, 500 freaking messages.
[00:28:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, there there's there's side missions in there too. There's secret side missions you don't wanna miss.
[00:28:26] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Well
[00:28:27] Bryan Goodwin:
especially the ones with mama Wells.
[00:28:30] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Yeah. I'm just yeah. I just I just I just been playing the last couple days. I mean, shoot, they had dropped the price. It was 49.99. Yeah. And, and I was like, nah. Hell, no. I ain't paying that much. And and the other day, I was looking and they said, 29.99. Click. I bought it. Sold. Yeah. I was done. So yeah. So because you see, I had the trial, and I'd already played the 5 hours. Right. And and and I and the price was 49.99 and I was not willing to pay that. So I just waited patiently. And then so, yeah, I've been I've been I've been enjoying my my endeavor.
[00:29:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. It's a it that is one of the best best stories, for an RPG that I've come across. That and, like I said, I'll get you back on Red Dead here sometime in the future. Red Dead's amazing. That's that is my favorite, video game story still at the moment.
[00:29:40] Rich Chelson:
And, yeah, dude's, dude's over here sitting in the background, like, yeah, motherfucker, Atari. Atari, dude.
[00:29:49] Duuude-Ron :
No. I was going to chime in and say Mario Brothers.
[00:29:54] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, okay. That's fun. That's fun one.
[00:29:57] Rich Chelson:
Hey. Mario Brothers is cool.
[00:30:01] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. Do Mario Brothers. I ain't gonna do the rest of that. You know, call the honor, call of duty or, you know, call the honor. No.
[00:30:14] Rich Chelson:
No. Now now, Ron, you would like this one, believe it or not. It's it's on PlayStation. You can get it on PlayStation 4 or 5, whatever. It's it's called call of duty world war 2. And it's basically the big red one fighting the Germans on D Day. It's it's actually pretty fucking cool. It's a I mean, I mean, it's a challenge because these boys will kill you quick. But but now you will play by yourself. You don't play with online with anybody. You would just play by yourself and everything. And it's it's actually really cool. I haven't played it for a while, but I've got the disc.
[00:30:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I'll let you just pop it in. Most of most Call of Duties except for, until they decided, hey. We're gonna go into the the battle royale, game software as a serve game as a service, model. They used to have some great stories. I mean, the whole black ops and ghosts, storylines were phenomenal.
[00:31:24] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. But then then they went in just and just opened up everything and just let everybody run around and just act a fool.
[00:31:33] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I mean, Vanguard was, it was a game. It was a it it was a story mission, but it wasn't very get it wasn't the grandest. I mean, it takes you maybe 6 hours if you play like me, and, and and you're it's done. Yeah. It's a very, very short little mission.
[00:31:56] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Well, this one this one, world war 2,
[00:31:59] Bryan Goodwin:
believe it or not. Oh, yeah. It'd be 40 hour games.
[00:32:03] Rich Chelson:
I'm not even I'm not even halfway through the first set of missions. Yeah. I don't think. I can't make it. I I think I think I'm over in France right now. So so I've made it, you know, across Normandy beach. Uh-huh. And I've I've made it into France, and I think I'm fixing to go into Italy.
[00:32:28] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. And now it's not just, it's not just, Europe. You also wind up, the the big battle that was in, what in Armenia? But is that is that you're, like, around in the Turkey area? World War 2. Yeah. During World War 2. Oh, that was Africa, wasn't it? No. No. No. No. It was it was in the Turkey over in the Middle East kind of area, and it was one of the most, they have determined that there were more pieces of lead flying through the air at this one particular time than ever before in in, or since. There was so much gunfire going on. There was that the air was actually just thick with with bullets. And it's actually you know, you've seen the Facebook post where they show the picture of the bullet that's been hit by a bullet?
[00:33:33] Rich Chelson:
I think, yeah, I think I've seen that. That came from that area.
[00:33:37] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay. And I don't think it was, I don't think it's Armenia, but, you know, it's kinda in that I'm wanting to say it's over in that area, like, Turkey, Hungary, that area. And, but, yeah, they they have a section on there where you actually are playing as a, actually, I think you end up playing as a oh, every time I keep talking, I'm thinking, no. No. That's World War 1. That that's battlefield 1.
[00:34:09] Rich Chelson:
No. They're, I I looked it up and and and the actual battle, they did fight over there. I mean, we didn't. The US didn't. It was Britain. Yep. But now Britain, Australia French.
[00:34:23] Bryan Goodwin:
Because you start out as in the game in the scene that I'm thinking of, you're in a you're in a, an Australia.
[00:34:29] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Got it. Yeah. Yeah. I'm not sure, but but, yeah, they they did fight over there to, because, Great Britain was trying to keep the path to India open. Right. Where did I see that? To India and somewhere else. Because it was, I guess, a trade route for Britain.
[00:34:57] Duuude-Ron :
Mhmm.
[00:34:58] Rich Chelson:
So, yeah, I mean, I mean,
[00:35:01] Bryan Goodwin:
we as Americans didn't fight, I don't think. Yeah. Yeah. We we didn't give a crap. We're just we we were busy trying to make sure we got we kept the the main part of Europe, as as cleaned out as possible. Yeah. So
[00:35:14] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. We were yeah. We yeah, we were more worried about the Germans.
[00:35:18] Bryan Goodwin:
We were more yeah. The Germans and the, and and, and the Pacific. So we were Yeah. We were split the 2 and still kicking ass. So yep. Oh my god. So but oh, another game is sometime down the way that, you'll wanna play is, is the God of War 2018 and, Ragnarok? You know Or 2016.
[00:35:49] Rich Chelson:
I tried to play one of those. I can't remember which one. I probably still have it in my library. And for some reason I just did not like it. I'm actually takes a little getting used to, with because you're actually using all all 4 buttons.
[00:36:04] Bryan Goodwin:
Dude, this is me. Do you think I can do this all at once? If you if you could play if you play Cyberpunk, you can you can do you can do this all at once. So
[00:36:14] Rich Chelson:
Dude, I've I've I freaking have a rifle. I just shoot them in the head. I I use I use 2 buttons, l 2 and r 2.
[00:36:25] Bryan Goodwin:
That's it. Well, I'll just wait until I get you to get or get you around to play on Bloodborne. Get you into some of the from software games.
[00:36:34] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. I haven't tried those yet.
[00:36:38] Bryan Goodwin:
I think it's, what was it? I think it's demon souls. The tagline is you will die. Okay. You and it you did. Based around it. Just yeah. And it it it's such a Bloodborne well, most Demon Soul games are just so kinda just throw you in the middle, and you have to figure it out as you go because as you're fight you you you arrive at a a particular place, and you have to sit there. You gotta fight through it, through areas till you find a a, particular little, I'm gonna call it the landmark, I think, in, demon souls and and dark souls. It's a campfire.
Blood borne. It's a lantern. And these are kinda your little save areas. You touch those and you're able to you're able to go there. But to,
[00:37:40] Rich Chelson:
You see, this is why this is why I like games like, Diablo and all like that because I know who the enemy is. I know I can walk right up and just shoot the sons of bitches and then run like hell.
[00:37:53] Bryan Goodwin:
Nope. Can't do that on Bloodborne. They well, you do have a gun, but, you have to be very good. Well, it no. It's not very good, but what it actually allows you you actually utilize your gun as a means of parrying the enemy before they attack.
[00:38:11] Rich Chelson:
What? I'm I'm I'm I'm gonna hold the gun and and block their blow. Oh, no. It's a pistol. It's a pistol. So you don't need to Okay. But but So I'm I'm gonna use it to block their blow.
[00:38:23] Bryan Goodwin:
It's just yeah. Yeah. And you do a lot of damage when you actually successfully parry. But, yeah. Really? Like, you start out in an area and your you actually are collecting things called, blood echoes. And this is the the echoes are essentially, essentially the, the the money for this, for this this, town. And it's all You're just in a town. There's a little bit of outside beyond the city skirt, outskirts stuff, but it just and and you don't have to worry about, hey. Am I messing with somebody who's good or bad? No. Everybody's out in this town is out to kill you. So just know that. Alright? Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. So you're you're out in this area and yeah. And so anybody you see, you're gonna kill them.
And from there, these people, you start it starts evolving into monsters, and these people start becoming essentially just it it it goes downhill it goes downhill fast. Now granted there is a multiplayer option where I could actually hop in and help you play. Mhmm. But you actually have to get far enough on your own Mhmm. Be able to do it because you have to actually have to go off and buy this little thing called a resonance bell. And when you have the res when you ring the resonance bell, it actually, it actually opens up the channel for me to come in and, actually would be able to go over and help you. But it's it is. It's at first, it your your weapon wear out.
It's a complex game, but it's a fun game. It's just the whole lore of it. You're, like, going holy shit, man. What the hell is this? Because That'll when you die, you lose your echoes.
[00:40:04] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Okay. Well, you say that that somewhat sounds like the division 2. A bit. Yeah. When you're when you're playing that game, if, you get, like, flooded with with the enemy or or you get hurt, you can put out, even though you're playing by yourself, you're still playing in, in an open world. And Uh-huh. Yeah. You can put out a call for help and someone can Come along and pick your butt up. Yeah. And save you because, I remember this was oh, God. Shit. What shit? When I still living up north, that I was playing in, I had hit the button to call for help. Don't know why. And this dude showed up, helped me out and then stayed with me. And, basically, we didn't say
[00:40:54] Bryan Goodwin:
3 words. Ten words. Yeah.
[00:40:56] Rich Chelson:
And and and and he showed me where things were at, and then we'd go attack other places and he'd take one position. I'd take the other position. We'd wipe them out. We'd go I mean, it was actually pretty cool. We played for about 3 hours, and I was just like, thanks, man. It was like, no problem. That was it. That was the only word spoke. And I mean, I was like, alright. That's pretty cool. So Oh, no. It and division
[00:41:22] Bryan Goodwin:
I used to play division 1, and that was, yeah, that was fun. The you you had the the main single player area, but then you could go into no man's or whatever the no man's land or whatever it was called. If you wanted to get the good stuff Mhmm. You know, the good weapons, you could go in there. And that was, yeah. Yeah. That was a that was a good lesson in humility there. You'd go think think you're gonna go in there and you were all jacked up. You were level 50 and you had all badass guns and you'd go in there and pop. You'd be dead. Yeah. Goddamn it. On one side. On one side. You're like, where the hell did he come from?
[00:42:02] Rich Chelson:
But yeah. No. It's but, nah, cyberpunk's fun. I love the graphics on it. Oh, beautiful, beautiful graphics. I agree. Yeah. Very, very beautiful graphics. So and that's and I think I think I'm on, what, cable, Internet, and it's still and it still runs. You know, it still runs PS 5 good.
[00:42:25] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, you actually won't need to be online to, like, because it that's a that's a straight up single player game.
[00:42:33] Rich Chelson:
Right. But yeah. But still, it's it's the, worlds and everything like that. No. It's all Oh, it's all it's all freaking downloaded on the PS 5 already. Yeah. It's all it's all on your
[00:42:48] Bryan Goodwin:
so Okay. But but still, it's yeah. It incredible game. Yeah. It is. And, it is. Yeah. You'll start getting, some of the, iconic weapons. That'll make it even punter. So what was that, Ron?
[00:43:03] Duuude-Ron :
That's why I like donkey, asteroids, madman.
[00:43:09] Rich Chelson:
Hey. Hey. Centipede. Oh, Centipede. That was always fun. That was challenging for me.
[00:43:17] Duuude-Ron :
Tempest was my my game. That's the one I liked to play the most. What what was the one that I can never remember the name of it. You looked it up and it's it's Jairus. You do all
[00:43:29] Bryan Goodwin:
Jairus. Yeah. It took you all the, dude. Dude, you asked that every time. Every time we bring up a retro game. I know. I used to play all that.
[00:43:39] Rich Chelson:
Well, that's that's that's hilarious.
[00:43:41] Duuude-Ron :
Go ahead, dude. Day, I'll one day, I'll remember it, but today is not gonna be that day.
[00:43:48] Bryan Goodwin:
And if anybody out there has a has a cabinet game of gyrus and is wanting to get rid of it or wanna donate it to a to an old dude who just all about that game. Hit one of us up. You can get me [email protected]. Love to be able to talk to you about that and see if we can find a way of getting it shipped on over to over to Ron so he could relive his childhood for for years years years.
[00:44:22] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. I like Tempest. Yeah. Did like that one too.
[00:44:26] Rich Chelson:
Asteroids. Defender? Asteroids was oh god. I loved Asteroids. That was fun.
[00:44:32] Bryan Goodwin:
Defender, Joust.
[00:44:34] Rich Chelson:
And see, Joust, I I tried Joust a couple of times and I I
[00:44:38] Bryan Goodwin:
I really didn't care about it. What shoes couldn't buy the fact that you had flying archers?
[00:44:42] Rich Chelson:
Well, yeah, that too. That was that was that was a mind fuck right there. Okay? You you know, you know, especially when I was younger, a flying ostrich? Oh, hell no.
[00:44:56] Bryan Goodwin:
I mean, but Yeah. There's so many freak games that or blast. I mean, all but BurgerTime. I remember watching that, television show, I think it was called game time, where the Yeah. Kids would all get together, and they would play video games for competition.
[00:45:14] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Yeah. So so what? You're saying that's the early days of Twitch?
[00:45:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Before Twitch? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it sounds like it. Yeah. And I can't remember who the, host was because the person that keeps coming to my head is the guy who do used to do Double Dare on Nickelodeon. But I don't I don't think that was him. Think it was, I think it was another guy, but, yeah, there was a, there was a guy who, there was a host, and they would have, I think, there would be, like, a a red team and a blue team, and and each one would take turns going and playing a playing a video game. Maybe the game at the moment might be Hubert or and they had to get a certain, get, see who got the highest score within, like, a minute and a half and and stuff like that. So it was just using the game to, as the challenge, you never who got to the highest level. It was always, you know, how much how much could you score within a certain amount of time is what I remember it being. But it was it was hell, I remember watching it before I went to church.
Because I think he was always out in the, like, like, 7 o'clock or 6:30 to 7 o'clock in on Sunday morning. So
[00:46:30] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. I I was probably driving truck at that time. So
[00:46:36] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. I I vaguely remember that, but I do remember, you know, they have to play the game and then it would go into something else. And yeah. Yep. Yep.
[00:46:48] Bryan Goodwin:
So so alright. We got a few topics we could cover. We got, would you give up your biometrics for, for some crypto? The brutality of a thought, problem with vegetable oil, or white boy summer?
[00:47:16] Rich Chelson:
It don't matter to me. All all I know is that, no, I would not give out my biometrics for crypto. Okay. We're talking about biometrics. And and and I like crypto, but I need to know I mean and, you know, I you know, honestly, if you stop and think about it. Okay? Believe it or not, a lot of, well, our phones already have our biometrics.
[00:47:42] Bryan Goodwin:
Very much so.
[00:47:44] Rich Chelson:
Our, our fingerprints, our face, because my phone, I can unlock it with my face and my fingerprint.
[00:47:52] Bryan Goodwin:
Right.
[00:47:55] Rich Chelson:
Now I'm told by go.
[00:48:02] Bryan Goodwin:
Excuse me. Now I'm told Yeah. Tuberculosis will kick your ass, won't it? Right. Yeah. It will.
[00:48:10] Rich Chelson:
But but not. And and you see, I am told by Google that Google doesn't have that information. All this information is on my phone. Now I don't know how much of that I believe. Right? But but you see, if you think about it, other places that have cameras, like traffic cams going into stores has cameras. Right. They have your face recorded, but it's still Oh, yeah. And so, I mean, I mean, I don't know why I have such a problem with that. It's just, I guess, because I I still think I'm in a big group, so it's not just, you know, they don't have they can pick me out if they look for me. It's it's not that they have my picture and my details right there beside me. Yeah.
You know what I mean? Mhmm. I mean, it sounds confusing. I know. But, I mean, it's it's straight in my head.
[00:49:13] Bryan Goodwin:
Right. Alright. Well, kinda wanna y'all also get, Ron's idea, idea, but but just kind of a background real quick. There is a apparently, right now, there's a shortage of them. But right now, there is a device called the orb, which if you're a fan of phantasm, this thing looks a lot like those flying silver balls that go around killing people in in the movie, But it's slightly bigger. It's, it it's actually quite a bit bigger. But anyhow, this this port And they don't kill you. And it yeah. Yeah. It doesn't have any razor blades that shoot out and spear you in the head, drill a hole in your head, and it's blurs spew your blood all over the place. It is a it is meant to collect your biometrics, like your retina scan, your thumbprint, your tongue print, is another biometric scan that's, that's out there.
Yeah. Yeah. You could actually use a and I don't think the Orb collection, your tongue print, but that is a a a biometrics that
[00:50:17] Rich Chelson:
is is available. You can actually utilize you could your each person's thumbprint is as unique as your thumbprint. Well, no. I now I get that. But but think about it. When you're trying to walk into a a a locked office or something and you have to use your tongue
[00:50:34] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, that'd be awesome. What'd you get? Oh, no. That would, yeah. Oh, there'd be so much sexual harassment going on there. Right. Yeah. You know, my my what I'm gonna imagine this is is is is as I lick it. Yeah. This is Helen. Oh, hi, Helen. Damn it. I'm going to HR, ain't Alright. Fine.
[00:50:58] Rich Chelson:
Dude, what was you gonna say?
[00:51:00] Duuude-Ron :
You know, just all the biometric stuff is just more of a way for our government to have control over the sheeple. Yep. And get, you know, that 0.1 percenter group that has all the money wants to be in control of everybody else.
[00:51:28] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. And that's it's a way to and they they gather they gather all that all that information with us with a nice little bribe.
[00:51:36] Rich Chelson:
Oh, yeah. Definitely. Of course. Because no one would give it up. So what's the brat?
[00:51:43] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. It's crypto. It's a special and I I don't think it's any or I don't think it's the it's a mainstream coin either. I don't think it's like Bitcoin or Litecoin or Ethereum. It's I I think they offer a it world world. So it's a shit coin. So
[00:52:00] Rich Chelson:
Well well, I as as as I was reading the article, it said it's world coin based on ether.
[00:52:07] Bryan Goodwin:
And, Yeah. Which which a lot of, a lot of crypto coins these days are based on the Ethereum blockchain. So Right. Right. So,
[00:52:16] Rich Chelson:
but and, I mean, I don't know of any, exchanges that that, handle.
[00:52:24] Bryan Goodwin:
Royalties.
[00:52:25] Rich Chelson:
No. I mean You know? I mean, I could look on on, you know, the couple I know, but, you know, I I I hate to say it, but I'm not gonna do it.
[00:52:36] Bryan Goodwin:
No. I wouldn't either. And I mean and it's it's they're kinda, they're doing it kinda the same way, and I they'll end up whenever if, if people aren't paying attention enough and the government successfully incorporates, the USDC, or not USDC, the CBDC. That's what it is.
[00:53:02] Rich Chelson:
CBDC?
[00:53:03] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. The central bank, digital currency. That is the the currency that, the Federal Reserve is a it's a programmable, coin. So, basically, what what they can do is they can if, the government can go through and see that, oh, Rich. I see you've eaten 2 and a half pounds of of red meat this week alone. You're gonna have to walk to go anywhere because you can't afford you can't be buying you can't be driving your car. I mean, because they'll have the car the that's one of the reasons why they wanna push electric cars so much. It's not just for for, for for greeny weeny, you know, snootyism.
It's it's also because the same thing as what happens with OnStar. They they perfected the OnStar system. So now, oh, hey. Hey. There's my car. Disengaged. All of a sudden, you kill the engine remotely. It's all dead. That won't be able to do anything. You're stranded out in the middle of anywhere. So, to be able to buy anything, you wouldn't be able to buy stuff if, if your your social credit score or also known as an ESG, score gets too low. You know? You didn't say the right stuff. You you said something that hurt, hurt your neighbor's feelings. And and they, they are, they feels really oppressed because because you you did say hi to them in the right way and use their pronouns properly.
Boom. Voila. Guess what? You ain't you're you're you don't get to go off and, and watch television now for, for a couple days because because uncle Sam has decided to ground you. It's my god. Yeah. No. And this the the and it's all programmable, so, you know, you they could actually go, you know what? You can't use this money to buy cigarettes. Cigarettes are bad for you. Oh, they've been saying that for Oh, yeah. But they but they but now you wouldn't be able to just whip out a, a greenback, lay it down, you know, or or Well buy or or however many greenbacks it takes to buy a pack of cigarettes, which is about, what, 15 almost?
[00:55:23] Rich Chelson:
In some places, yeah. It is.
[00:55:26] Bryan Goodwin:
Some places,
[00:55:28] Rich Chelson:
Some places, 10.
[00:55:30] Bryan Goodwin:
Is this 10? Yeah. I'm not yeah. Goddamn it. I'm I am glad I quit smoking. There's times I still wish I did, but I'm glad I quit. I'm very glad I quit. Well, I'm very glad you quit too. I'm I'm still working on it.
[00:55:44] Duuude-Ron :
Well, I it's all it's all based on your Working on it until I'm dead. I'll be working on it until I'm dead. And then I will smoke one last time because I'm getting cremated. So I'll be smoking until I'm dead, plus 1.
[00:56:00] Bryan Goodwin:
Plus 1. You'll be you'll be okay.
[00:56:03] Duuude-Ron :
There you go. See, and just you gotta remember this. Quitters never win, and winners never quit. So
[00:56:13] Bryan Goodwin:
I'll leave that I'll leave that up to you. Well, there's also there's also that adage that, you know, ignorance is bliss, and patience is a virtue. So you can lead a pretty damn good life if you're stupid and don't mind waiting around.
[00:56:30] Rich Chelson:
You got a point. So I mean, this You got a point.
[00:56:36] Bryan Goodwin:
So but but, yeah, the CBDC, and and the way that they're, they're kinda proposing it is the same way that they would they they took care of when they when they went off of the,
[00:56:53] Rich Chelson:
Gold standard?
[00:56:54] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Not off the go well, they went off gold standard in the seventies, but during World War 2 when they outlawed gold Mhmm. They actually, to sell it back, they actually gave you more than what it was worth. To encourage people, it's like, heck yeah, man. If I can get, you know, if I got $10 worth of gold and I can get $15 for it, bye, George, I'm gonna do that. Right. Right. Hold on, though. Okay. Hang on a second here.
[00:57:23] Rich Chelson:
You said this, this new coin is the CBDC.
[00:57:27] Bryan Goodwin:
Right? Central bank digital currency.
[00:57:30] Rich Chelson:
Central bank digital currency.
[00:57:32] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. Now
[00:57:33] Rich Chelson:
think about that for a second. Do you know what they're they're fixing to do?
[00:57:38] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. Yeah. They're fixing to take over all the banks, the federal government.
[00:57:43] Rich Chelson:
And yeah. And so that'll make the double have all these other banks thinking for themselves, you need to be doing what big brother says. Well, right. No. I know. But but you see, that's the thing. This is this is what they've been trying to do for the last 40, 50, a 100 years. You know? Couple 100 years or whatever. I mean, this this is nothing new, but but they're just now getting to the point to where they're gonna wind up taking over the global currency.
[00:58:13] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. And that's what World Economic Forum was, which doesn't sound evil at all.
[00:58:19] Rich Chelson:
You know? No. No. No. Not at all. That's that's a, you know, next door neighbor name. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know?
[00:58:26] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, close. You know, not anything that they do. And, I mean, you've got, old BlackRock dude who, the CEO of BlackRock. Crap. He's got a he's got a name that's just, Fink. Fink is his last name. Fink. Yeah. Yeah. Like yeah. He's like like a rat Fink. I think his name's, starts with an r, something r Fink. But, no, it's not rat, but it Larry. Should be rat. Larry Fink. Is it Larry? I sing it. It starts with r. There's r's in there's 2 r's in there, so I was distantly close. Distantly close. However Distantly close. There there is a there is a I like I like Brad Fink. Yeah. But, yeah, Larry Fink.
Just close.
[00:59:25] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Say Larry Fink or Lawrence D Fink is founder chairman and chief executive officer of BlackRock.
[00:59:35] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, well, he almost sounded diabolical until you start throwing Lawrence around. Because you could hear you could hear his mom holler down this block.
[00:59:49] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. That that, the, p 4 just cut that out. Just I bet it did. Yeah. He was
[00:59:58] Bryan Goodwin:
he was way too noise. Making no noise whatsoever.
[01:00:02] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. It was like, yo, dude, you just clipped so hard that it's like, yep. Nope. Silence. Fuck you. We're done.
[01:00:10] Bryan Goodwin:
So but anyhow, might write write that, distantly closed down as a, as a title option. So Okay. So but yeah. I mean and and it's just it's I know a lot of those who happen to be listening. Yeah. Okay. These are a lot of it is somewhat conspiracy theory that's based based in a lot of interesting facts that happen to be happening around,
[01:00:40] Rich Chelson:
around the world right now. Well, okay. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Why is every everyone so quick to say, oh, it's a conspiracy theory?
[01:00:49] Bryan Goodwin:
Because then it's easy to discredit.
[01:00:52] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. But but the thing is, though, I mean, I mean, if it's in if it's in, you know, media, and well, it won't be in the media in the US because we know we know the,
[01:01:05] Bryan Goodwin:
television media. Well, depends on which which media you're listening to. If you're listening to talk radio yeah. There's a couple of stations that are, or a couple programs talk about it. But Right. But but I'm talking,
[01:01:17] Rich Chelson:
you know, most of them, you know, not a lot of people listen to talk radio anymore.
[01:01:23] Bryan Goodwin:
No. No. Most most of the, the the m five m is not, not gonna report on it because, you know, they're hoping to hoping to to not be, to be, be lumped in with the riffraff when,
[01:01:39] Rich Chelson:
when that change comes along. So Right. Well, well, and see and see, that's the thing. The, the, the, mainstream media wants wants to try and, take everyone's attention away from the problems in in the actual government. Right. That's why, just to let everybody know, a lot of this stuff that we're talking about comes from news outlets in the UK. Because, what, the cryptocurrency one was, the daily mail. Right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So it because what what what we've learned over the years is that in order to find out what's going on in America, you have to go to other countries because they will report what's going on in America
[01:02:30] Bryan Goodwin:
and over there too. But Yeah. You know? Well, they they love to to to snitch on on on America, But at the same time, I mean, they they didn't turn around and and do what our media does To their on their system. People. Yeah. Yeah. So it's, you know, it's like, oh, look at that. Look at that big old big old, splinter in, in the US' eye while they've got a a whole plank in there. So, you know, that's it's, there is not a a media company. And when I say media, I'm talking about traditional media. Talking about radio, ABC, NBC, CBS, even, PMS, NBC, as Rush, god bless his soul, used to call it.
Mhmm. You know, there's none of those, the mainstream even Fox these days. Yeah. Fox. They're still kind of okay. But I mean, they've they've they've slipped ever since, their main their main dude died, and and got taken over. They're they're well, I mean, hell, you don't need I noticed whenever Trump came along, that all of a sudden, the Drudge Report was nowhere near as, as I mean, Drudge Report was was just as bad as, as MSNBC about about trashing, trash Trump. Really? Really? Because Oh, god. Yeah. Yeah. Drugs. Drugs, for whatever reason, he and I think he sold I actually think he literally sold out. I think he sold sold the drug report to a to a, to a a a a news organization and and because it's yeah. You don't hear anybody talk about the drug report anymore.
Oh, I know. I know it. And that happened quick. I mean, 2016 to about 2017, no one's like, drugs report ain't worth crap anymore, and and drop them like a hot potato.
[01:04:38] Rich Chelson:
Let's see.
[01:04:43] Bryan Goodwin:
Yes, folks. Rich is our fact checker because I am as you if you are on the live stream, you can actually see that I am inside of a truck. Because like I said, I drive a truck professionally. And, and so I actually have got my whole setup going very mobile. I'm talk I'm streaming through my phone. All the information comes through there, and I've got a microphone that, goes to a little, p 4, a Zoom P4. And because this is an iPhone 15, it's got the USB c, so I can USB c into it. And, and a it goes into, up in the Zoom servers, which bounce around and it goes to the Twitch servers. So hey. Yeah. We're we're still live, and it's great, and it's wonderful.
So but I it doesn't make very good, podcast or video casting, sense to have me with my bifocals trying to read something on the phone while vertical video in it. So it looks real bad. So, yeah, we have Rich, our our our fact checker, who has actually got the, the the the desktop. So Yeah. So So what'd you find out?
[01:05:58] Rich Chelson:
Actually, it is it is still ran by it it was founded by Matt Drudge, of course. Yep. And, he's got Charles Hurt and Daniel Halper, and it's still going.
[01:06:12] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, yeah. No. I know. I figured it's still going. So because I figured everyone would be celebrating the moment, Drudge Report shut its doors.
[01:06:19] Rich Chelson:
But it's it's not madrudge no more. Yeah. No. I'm I'm not seeing I'm not seeing anywhere where, they sold out. Hang on a second. Let me check.
[01:06:33] Bryan Goodwin:
As I say, my search for when Matt Judge sold. Margaret Otto.
[01:06:38] Rich Chelson:
Matt Judge sold the judge report to Margaret Otto in 2018. Miss Otto hang on. Listen. Listen. In fact, hang on. Let me bring this up so I can read this. He sold the site to the Otto family, who were, I guess, early Google employees, and the conditions of the sale were were to be kept private. Yeah. Say hang on. Where where was that at? Miss Otto is a political leftist, and she changed the political orientation of the judge report after she bought it. So in 2018 and at 2018, it swung to the left.
[01:07:31] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. It all of a sudden And even before but even before then, Matt, for whatever reason, Matt Drudge didn't like Trump either. Right. And so so he wasn't very sympathetic to whatever Trump was doing and was, during the election and all that, but then,
[01:07:52] Rich Chelson:
but but hold on. Hold on. If if you look if you look before that, I mean, I mean, the judge report, he covered, the, the, Monica
[01:08:05] Bryan Goodwin:
Lewinsky scandal. Yeah. That's that was his big break was was the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Yeah. That was. And, but but you see over that
[01:08:14] Rich Chelson:
over time there, you know, I mean, it didn't seem he was left or right, but, I mean, it seemed like he was mostly right because, you know, of what was coming out. But yeah. No. And I he was on talk radio too. Yeah.
[01:08:31] Bryan Goodwin:
He had his own talk radio show there for a little while. But so, yeah, he sold out to
[01:08:37] Rich Chelson:
leftist, to A bunch of leftists. Liberals in,
[01:08:42] Bryan Goodwin:
yeah, the room. And they're probably wondering why they can't make as much money as they used to.
[01:08:48] Rich Chelson:
Well, yeah. I don't know. Because, yeah, the freaking Jodie report used to make a buttload of money.
[01:08:55] Bryan Goodwin:
I'm sure it did. And I mean, he didn't do much. He would his his his sight was so simple in its genius. Mhmm. Because it wasn't, you know, it wasn't him making stating, hey, you know, the the liberals wanna wanna destroy the, destroy the world. He would give a title a headline, you know, of whatever. And then he would link directly to their news, news, to their to their article that stated that very fact. Exactly. And that's you see, that's why that's why back in the day, I love the judge report. Oh, hell yeah. Anytime he got a got a breaking news. He used to have the, the old gift, popcorn, bingo lights going off at the top.
Yeah. I would say you do you had a if you hit there just right, you are getting breaking news. You you got the juice stuff. But see, that's that's the thing, though. And and you see, back then, though, the judge report,
[01:10:05] Rich Chelson:
he would do left and right. He didn't care. You know, if it was headlines and and, honestly, I don't know how he kept up with it,
[01:10:14] Bryan Goodwin:
You know? Because I Oh, he had a lot of folks who who helped him. He had a lot of extra hands and helped Twitter. Threw a lot of stuff his way too. So Right.
[01:10:24] Rich Chelson:
But but yeah. No. It just you know? And that's why that's why I like that site because you could find something for everybody pretty much. Oh, yeah. You know, whichever way you linked or didn't lean or, you know, squashed or hit or stood up. It didn't matter. You know? You you could find something that you wanted to read. Right. Honest honestly, since oh, god. It's probably been a good ten, almost 12 years since I really looked at the drug report. So
[01:10:56] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. It's been been since probably, actually, like I said, I think it was probably 20, 2017 that I stopped stopped looking at it.
[01:11:06] Rich Chelson:
I think I looked at it in, like, 2020 or something just just because I thought about it. You know? But and and I was looking at it and I'm like, oh, I don't like any of this shit. Okay.
[01:11:19] Bryan Goodwin:
It's a bunch of that's a bunch of bullshit right there. So Yeah. Pretty much.
[01:11:24] Rich Chelson:
Pretty much.
[01:11:26] Bryan Goodwin:
So speaking of speaking of, of bullshit and and other assorted things, kinda, one of the things we were talking about was the brutality of a thought.
[01:11:38] Rich Chelson:
A thought. And a thought. And Brutality of a thought. Now Yeah. You know, that is that is kinda weird because I have thoughts, but they are not brutal.
[01:11:48] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, but this is this is a different well, first off, it's a different type of thought. This is Okay. Okay. This is the t h o t, which is the term people use for, like, the OnlyFans girls, for the porn stars that because THOT stands for that ho over there. Now I'm sure that probably just got us knocked off Twitter or Twitch, but still, that's what it stands for. That hoe over there. H o t. That hoe over there. Okay. Yeah. Yes. We're talking about the garden hole. Yeah. Yeah. We're talking about that gardening hoe that's, because the long road hoe type of thing. That's a sexy garden hoe. I'll tell you, it is. It's a Right? My hoe. It's a dirty hoe. So
[01:12:32] Rich Chelson:
we really gonna but but now hold on. Hold on. Why you say okay. Okay. I don't get this. We are all given right. We all have rights. We can do whatever the hell we want, whenever we want. So so why is this such a big deal?
[01:12:53] Bryan Goodwin:
Because what the the us getting bumped off for using a word tap a tap a deal or No. No. This Or the thought. Thought. Oh, okay. That ho over there. The reason the That whole of the the, the whole The thing about the thought is is It's termed because you have so many women who are now well, since the since the, since the pandemic, you had a bunch of, bunch of of of powerful feminists who thought it was a really good idea. I know. I am I am powerful. I am a I am a woman. Hear me roar. I'm going to do the one thing that feminist from for years years years have complained about. I'm gonna be in porn.
Okay. Good for you. Yay. But I don't care. Because I mean, I mean, what's it? I know you don't care. No. But the thing is what's it is? That's just it though. That is if first off, if you look at that whole lot of thinking because, you know, when even when it was just the bio label. Alright? Okay. Well, and even before that, you had you had feminist throwing fits about booth babes. Do you remember booth babes? No. I don't. Okay. Booth babes at if you went to if you ever saw shows that were taking place at, like, e 3 or taking place at, all the, the big, electronic trade show, consumer c s.
Yeah. Yeah. C e s. C e s. They're in from the from around the 2000 to about 2,010 ish, maybe 2,011, 2012. Somewhere in there. All the all the conventions it would have as a means of drawing attention to a lot of the geeks and a lot of the guys that were there, they would have these hot, big boomed women Okay. Standing there. They'd be in either bikinis or in tight t shirts and shorts and stuff like that. And they would they would be helping to sell products. And the feminist at that time threw a fit going, oh my god. These women are selling their bodies for for a dollar and back or for a, you know, for money and blah blah blah blah blah blah. If they wanna hold shit, hold up. Hold up. Hold up. But we're gonna get there. We're gonna get to it. And so but they would throw all their shit bit about how these girls who are grown women, they're usually 21 to 18 or to o or older. We sell them, you know, dress it up, all sexy and showing off showing off their body, showing off their curves. And the guys ate it up because, obviously, there there's boobs and butts and and and hot long legs and hair done up just right. And all these guys will be would like it because they are out on the out on the road or whatever at these conventions. And these girls were there, and they were paying attention to the guy. So, you know, the guy's gonna go, okay. I'll buy it. And, you know, they'll buy the stuff. They sold a lot more products.
And the feminists would throw a fit because of the how the women would dress like that. They wouldn't bitch about it. I actually got into a fit a fight on LinkedIn of all things. Because a guy who had who had his wife and his, and I think his, and the other co and the other founder of the company had his wife, They were both there and they were basically in Hooters outfits. And not that they walk around with their Hooters hanging out. They were were, you know, tight t shirt and short shorts and had the hair done up and long legs and well tanned and all that. And had they were just getting raped over the coals of how dare you, take advantage of these women? Blah blah blah blah blah. They can't help the they're they're you know, you're taking advantage of these poor women. The guy's not going, dude, it's my freaking wife. She's made the suggestion.
And so she would so they throw a fit. And now, fast forward to 2020, and instead of throwing a fit about, hey, you women are selling your bodies for money. How dare you? They're going, well, this is strong independent woman. I should be able to get naked for a dollar. And it's like, okay. If you wanna get naked for a dollar, get naked for a dollar. But you're also trashing, you know, most of us men know that when you have a you have a woman who is selling her, her body for money, that's making her a prostitute. That's making her a a hoe, a literal hoe.
[01:17:52] Rich Chelson:
Okay. But whose decision is it? I mean, yes. Yes. To to to go to sign up for OnlyFans. Yeah. Hold on. Human trafficking aside. Okay. All these other women or men because I guess some men do it. There are guys on there. Okay. And there's actually not non adult artists on there too. So Okay. Fine. Either way, they consciously made the choice to do this. So so so why are these people worried, you know, trying to call them different names, trying to shame them or whatnot? Just fucking let them be.
[01:18:30] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, it and that that is, except for the and and I agree to the to a, a large point. The point is is when they start standing around complaining going, I can't find a man who will marry me. Well, that's because you're you used your body up. You're you've gone off and slept with 200 other men. And in the eighties, y'all don't understand this, but in the eighties, we were were it was driven into our head. It whoever you sleep with, you're also essentially sleeping with every other person that that person slept with. Well, it's been true since beginning of time. Oh, well, yeah. It's been true, but that's where it was really driven home. It's like, don't be, you know, if you go off Right. You dip you play dip the wick with with 13 other women, you're probably you're running a chance of catching a STD off of one of those 13 other women because one of them probably had a boyfriend somewhere down the line who didn't who slept with a 100 different women. And yes, I know we're talking men and women women and and all that. And I'm not taught, not about, you know, should men, run around on on women and and play play hide the salami with with a 100 different women.
Because, no, they shouldn't.
[01:19:45] Rich Chelson:
Right. But I agree. Again But but we're stuck. Still, again, the thing is what I'm saying is is why is this a freaking problem in this world today?
[01:19:55] Bryan Goodwin:
Who gives They are shitting around. Well, because it and it shouldn't be. If you wanna go off you wanna if you wanna be a wanna go off and and be an only fans girl, be a cam girl, and sell your sell your body and your soul to to the Internet. God bless you. Be my guest. Stop bitching about the fact that you don't have you can't find a man. Because the quality men are not gonna go after a low quality woman. Exactly. They're going to want a woman who is virtuous, who is got whose body count is preferably 0, but as maybe 1, 2, maybe 3 guys ahead of them?
[01:20:37] Rich Chelson:
Well, and and and the thing is, honestly, let me ask you this. How many guys ask a woman what that they're dating?
[01:20:44] Bryan Goodwin:
How many partners have you been with? It's a typical question these days of what's your body count. Really? Yeah.
[01:20:52] Rich Chelson:
Really?
[01:20:53] Bryan Goodwin:
Holy cow. I mean, all the girls I dated, I it it the topic usually came up of how many so how many people have you slept with? Wow. And of course, we also ran, we also knew about the rule of 3.
[01:21:08] Rich Chelson:
You know Say I never knew about the rule of 3. Okay. The rule of 3 is
[01:21:13] Bryan Goodwin:
take the number that a woman says and multiply it by 3. Okay. And that's closer to what she how many she actually had. Take however how many a man says.
[01:21:26] Rich Chelson:
Multiply it by 30? No. No.
[01:21:29] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Divide it by 3. Because it's actually for every one for every girl he's pro or every 3 girls he slept with, Zach's probably 1. Well, yeah. You're right. Because Because because women, though, they love to say they don't have any power. When it comes to sex and relationships, they have all the power. They have all the power. And I And it should be. That is the money and all the power. That's how it's, how it should be. Because if it is up to us guys and and we had the had the ability to choose the power and had all that type of power Oh my god. We wouldn't know what to do with it. I mean, come on. Look at some of the popular shock sites out there. And and you know that guys shouldn't be trusted alone with with,
[01:22:13] Rich Chelson:
with the the devious perverted thoughts they have. Exactly. No. So, I mean, come on. I know. Apparently, apparently I've been, I've been out of the game long enough that, yeah, I, I, because
[01:22:26] Bryan Goodwin:
hey, anyone I've ever dated, no one ever asked me what my body count was. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you you've been out of action long enough. Jerry's done grown back. So well, you're okay.
[01:22:37] Rich Chelson:
Right. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing, though. Oh, you know, it depends.
[01:22:42] Bryan Goodwin:
So but anyhow, so back back to the why is the thought being called a thought so brutal? Yeah. Why?
[01:22:54] Rich Chelson:
I I don't I don't understand
[01:22:56] Bryan Goodwin:
it. One, it is essentially labeling out this woman has had a lot of checks. Or let's check because this woman's had a lot of checks. Well, some of them had. Well But and Some It depends on how you say it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No judgment. No judgment. No. No. Not at all. Except we all judge, so so there's that. But, so this woman's had a high body count. Alright? So one, she has taken her taken her energy and she has now become just a she's not even actually a what I would call what I would call I wanna say ethereal, but that's not the right word. Anyhow, she is, she is basically, purposely by by becoming a thought has become a become just a thought.
She is thou a a a a thing that men masturbate to. She is a nothing more than a actual fantasy. She her name is I am a thought. She is not a she doesn't have any actual substance. Now she's physically there. Yes. But there's no substance to her because she has decided, you know what? I'm just gonna be a I'm gonna be product for masturbatory material. I am gonna be a product for the simps out there and the freaking simps. Goddamn it, man. Guys, get out there. If you're a simp, you're sitting there paying for some of this stuff. Stop it.
Please go out and go be you're gonna feel stupid the first 20 times you do it, and you're still gonna feel stupid the second 20 times you do it. But go talk to a real girl and find out what happens when you don't flog the dolphin every other day. Find out what your my mental, your mental cohesion and mental thought pattern is when you actually don't beat off, you know, burping the gherkin, you know, every 3rd every 3rd hour because you actually become more aware of, of what women are are doing around you. And it's sad because you have millennials.
And, yeah, millennials are now entering into the 40 year old, department, which doesn't make them old, but you also have gen the Zoomers running around, gen z. And they're being advertised, you know, ED pills. They're getting Viagra and Cialis sent to them because there's this thing called porn induced erectile dysfunction. Oh, wow. They can't get a boner unless they're looking at a looking at porn. And I mean, come on. The best porn out there is a real woman is standing in front of you naked, ready to go. Yep.
No. I I guarantee you that. Because guess what? You don't have to touch yourself. It gets touched all as part of the game, and it's even better than you would think, man. Right. And simps, I mean, that's that's just it. The I I feel sorry for y'all because y'all are just y'all have decided that it's better to to sit in the house and to just fantasize about a thought. A Right. Just a figment of your imagination. And that's even if she is dressing up, that girl, whoever she is, is just, at that moment, just ones and zeros on the Internet. She is not there physically.
And so she is just a thought in your head. And so they you're brute she's brutalizing herself because she's making herself just ones and zeros.
[01:26:49] Rich Chelson:
But see the thing is, again, that's her choice.
[01:26:52] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, it no. I agree. That is her choice. So But at the same time, simps, damn it. The guys, that's y'all's choice too, but y'all are perpetuating the your own damn damn fall.
[01:27:04] Rich Chelson:
Mate, Call me naive or whatever, but but, I mean, stuff like this has been going on, you know, like I said earlier, since beginning of time. Okay. So so why is it now such a big problem?
[01:27:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, we're seeing the results of what happens when you go free porn. We're seeing the results that. Okay. Okay. Birth rate is falling down. And it's not just in the US. Look at Japan where they have they have manga and and hentai and and all this where there's I mean, their television shows are just right there. I mean, granted, they don't show actual they're not I don't think, I think it's in Japan. They're not allowed to show actual genitalia.
[01:27:50] Rich Chelson:
No. They can't. Not in Japan. So England, they can. Oh, yeah. In England, you know, you know, walk English. You know? Hey. Oh, you know? But but still but but okay. You see? Okay. I understand that. But, again, how is that affecting your personal life?
[01:28:09] Bryan Goodwin:
Not personal life, but at the same time, we're not the birth rate is fallen.
[01:28:14] Rich Chelson:
Well, right. This what I'm saying. But but you see, can you do anything about the birth rate that's fallen?
[01:28:22] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I'm doing what I can right now to make sure that all the, that, guys stop stop playing with I love getting the love. Yeah. Stop choking the chicken. You know? Spanking the monkey. You know? Every other your euphemism you could think of, I still love but by flogging the dolphin is still my favorite one of all. Just That was the It's always been my That was good, dude. Honestly, the first time I heard that, that was that was actually pretty fucking good. So I was I was I was enjoying that one immensely.
[01:28:52] Rich Chelson:
So never flogging the dolphin. I don't think I would call my thing a dolphin, but alright. You know? So But but no. Yeah. See, that's that's the thing. Now I I mean, I understand what you're saying, and I'm not trying to make light of it. I mean I know you're not. This is my decision. Trying to come up with a better way of being able to explain it so that
[01:29:13] Bryan Goodwin:
you know? Because as to to counter your your incredible thoughts and and and the counteractions. Right. Exactly. I don't care, but yet the results of it, I do care.
[01:29:26] Rich Chelson:
But, okay. And, and maybe this isn't where I'm, I'm, I'm understanding. Okay. I mean, because I'm, I look at things. I look at everything. Does it affect me in the way I live? No. I don't give 2 shits about it. You know? But Right. But they're they're on the same hand, though. I do care overall about people. It's kind of an oxymoron, isn't
[01:29:54] Bryan Goodwin:
it? That you don't care about them, but you you you give a shit about or you don't give a shit about it, but you care. So yeah. Well, yeah. I mean I mean, if it didn't,
[01:30:02] Rich Chelson:
great. Come on now. I mean, I I know I'm I'm I'm, like, off in the head or something. I don't know. It just but but, you know, the way I see it, especially during the pan pandemic, these women chose to go to OnlyFans. And and, again, you and I've had this discussion and with dude, we've, we've had this discussion as well. During, during the pandemic, everybody basically let the government tell them exactly what to do, and you just Right. Okay.
[01:30:38] Bryan Goodwin:
You just went. Oh, did I just go go funny? Yeah. You're both. I was checking I was checking chats to see if there are anything happening. So, yeah. Everything all of a sudden shift. I was like, oh, crap. Crap. Turn it back. Turn it back. But,
[01:30:50] Rich Chelson:
but, but see, that's the thing, you know, and and if everyone in America would have stood up and said kiss my ass, like like, you know, some of us did, then Yeah. We probably wouldn't be having this discussion because OnlyFans probably would not have taken off as well. But then again, it might have too.
[01:31:13] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, it was it was taken off, but once the once the pandemic hit and all of a sudden you had all these women who were stuck at home, and they were like, hey. Wait a minute. I can I can actually sell my body on the Internet and make money, and some do? Some made a lot of money. Mhmm. The majority of them maybe had 2 2 followers. It was, I mean, it was your typical social media type of hype where it's like, oh, yeah. I'm I'm gonna be on OnlyFans. I'm gonna have a lot I'm gonna have 10,000 followers. Sorry, girl, but you are not that damn pretty. Well well, that's like You were not that not as hot as you thought you were. You've made $20.
[01:31:59] Rich Chelson:
Good job. Yeah. In in 2 years. You know? Well, that's like, look at look at these guys going on YouTube, trying to make videos and, you know, be like these big video YouTube channels. Sorry, hoss. You ain't gonna do it. It's, it's not gonna work. Not in a timeframe that you're looking at. I'm not saying it can't work. It can, but it's gonna take a long time to get there. You know, unless you have something that just goes viral and you explode overnight, which we hope 2 grumpy vets will do. So, hey, check us out. Hey, K. Follow us.

[01:33:57] Bryan Goodwin:
So so what are your what are your thoughts on on what we've been talking about? You know
[01:34:03] Duuude-Ron :
Sorry about that. I had a cookie.
[01:34:08] Bryan Goodwin:
We made him hungry.
[01:34:10] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. Made me hungry. You know, right now, I just I don't have any thoughts on it. I know I sound like the, party pooper of group. I just don't have any
[01:34:23] Rich Chelson:
Dude, you're just loving the cookie, man.
[01:34:26] Duuude-Ron :
That's right.
[01:34:27] Bryan Goodwin:
See what we're talking about. All of a sudden, you give a guy a cookie and he has no thoughts. That's
[01:34:33] Duuude-Ron :
right.
[01:34:34] Rich Chelson:
Ladies, if you want your guy to shut up, give him a cookie. Give him a cookie. You're good.
[01:34:40] Bryan Goodwin:
Give him a sandwich and he'll he's good. But I mean, it and but the one of the big things that I that I've gotten that I've noticed especially here recently, and maybe it's just because I'm I'm getting older and I've I've stopped being the the dirty old man. And because I'm I'm looking at life in a completely different manner. But I mean, I used to there was quite a few girls that I watched. And when I say girls, I mean, they're in their mid twenties on up. Mhmm. But they they were a lot of them started out was following them and follow them on Instagram, follow them on on Twitter and stuff. And whenever the pandemic hit and you could see them, it was almost like a a some type of weird virus that was coming along where I was all of a sudden, they were starting to they used to dress nicely. They were having, yeah, they were having fun and they had great content. And it was just funny because couple of them were really working hard trying one of them in particular, her her, her name was or still is. I I think she's still running around. I hadn't paid attention to her in a couple years now.
But, was Boba. And she was she was trying so hard to be an actual model. And she actually, that she did a video where she actually got to do a big, you know, big hot shot photo shoot with a bunch of the models for a for a a deal. And she said that she when she did it, she was so awkward at it because that was her first time.
[01:36:22] Rich Chelson:
Mhmm.
[01:36:22] Bryan Goodwin:
That she honestly didn't wanna do it do modeling anymore, which was like, no. You that's what you you had a bad time. You you did weren't taught, you know, how how they actually wanna hold a glass and stuff. Yeah. It was your first time. You're gonna screw it up. You're going to make a mess up of it. Right. But to run from it right then, that makes a that turns that that that mistake that failure into a real failure. Mhmm. And it and it, it did. It hurt me just to think, oh, she gave up her on her dream because it didn't work out the way she wanted.
Well, I'm saying I guess I don't know if she just realized that the girls who are who are actual professional models are as snooty as they are or what. But she then she gave up on that. And so she still did her little content creation. She would do would go on little little adventures and things like that and go out amongst town and talk to the to the, to the camera and things like that, and it was great. And then, 2020 came along and all of a sudden, she started showing up in a little bit less clothing. A little bit less clothing. A little bit less clothing. And eventually, you started meant see her mentioning OnlyFans. And it was just like, oh, no. And that that caused me caused me to lose a lot of of actual respect for her. Right. Because she did go down that path. She didn't wanna be a be a, be a model anymore, but yet she became a model. And the one thing if you look in her eyes, you see the the light going out.
Mhmm. And so it's Yeah. I'm I think last I saw, I think she started, became one of the, because Playboy decided that it wanted it wanted a part of that type of action. It's like, hey. Yeah. We can we can take we can do an only fans type of of service. Mhmm. And so I she went over to to Playboy. That was when I was like, okay. Yeah. She's she's completely lost me whenever she did that. And I just wonder if I stopped, stopped following her on a lot of that and, and stuff. But then there's others like, there was another there was another girl who, name was is what? Avalon Warren is what she goes by.
But she has thankfully stayed clean. And if you wanna call it pure, I mean, I think, she got married here, a couple 2 or 3 years ago and, started incorporating her husband into into, her her deal. But she used to do a lot of lot of, of, the not the dressing up of, like, characters.
[01:39:18] Rich Chelson:
Cosplay.
[01:39:19] Bryan Goodwin:
Cosplay. Thank you. Yeah. I was like, oh, good thing in the name. So anyhow, she she does a lot of cosplay and stuff and so she dresses up and and, and puts on different wigs and things like that. And that was but that's the closest to risque she gets. Mhmm. Sometimes she she wears a, might wear a a dress, a a nice looking dress. Now it might be a little cut, little a little low, but that but it it works. It's not a slutty down to the belly butt type of cut, but it's Right. But she still is having a lot of fun creating her content and sharing her life and her and her marriage, on the Instagram. And and because of that, you could see that's The difference between those two girls.
1 is, see, she's doing it because she that's sadly, she's told herself that's all she could do now. Mhmm. And she's lost the fire in her eyes while the other one has still is still going, still having a good time. She may be struggling from here and there. Sometimes she shares that.
[01:40:26] Rich Chelson:
Well, you know, and and that's that's called running a business.
[01:40:30] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. But that's, but at the same time, that's the problem that a lot of the only fan girls have. Is they they go down that that that route thinking that, hey, I can make I can make a $1,000,000. All I have to do is show them show them my my cookie and and we're all good. And, no. Right. It starts out as a simple little booby flash down to, you know, maybe a little little flash of panties here and there. Mhmm. Then all of a sudden to get more people, all of a sudden you have to, start removing your top. Right. And you and you're like, oh, I'm not I'm only hanging there. I'm not going anymore. Oh, okay. Okay. I'll close the panties.
Right. Oh, wait a minute. Okay. We'll start playing with toys and it can divulges down more and more to work. Alright. I we bring my boyfriend in. My boyfriend's into it. So we start photo filming ourselves having sex. Oh, well, that's not bringing in a whole lot of people anymore. So we need to bring in my boyfriend's friend, Phil, and they do their thing. And then we got boyfriend's Phil and boy, friend's girlfriend, and we have all 4 of us are all go and it divulges into into a a loss of your soul.
[01:41:41] Rich Chelson:
No. Straight up porn.
[01:41:42] Bryan Goodwin:
And Well, yeah. Oh, even the it it all is.
[01:41:47] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. But but you're saying, I mean, I've never looked at an OnlyFans page, so I don't even know what they look like. I mean, because one because, like like, take a look at TikTok, and I I don't I don't get on TikTok much anymore. But you've got these soccer moms. I call them soccer moms, you know, that, you know Try and learn to understand. Yeah. Take their kids to school and then come in in some you you know, do what TikTok videos with with sexy outfits and all like this, trying to get you to follow them. Or Oh, they're only fans. Yeah. Yeah. Or, you know, whatever. And it's like, why?
It's like, you need to have a little more respect for yourself. What? You're bored? You don't have enough money? Your husband doesn't make enough money to elect to stay at home and go shopping. Sadly, most of them are are have said that they're strong women,
[01:42:42] Bryan Goodwin:
strong independent women, so they don't need a man. They've been told they don't need a man so they've got Fine. Well, fine. They've got 1, 2 kids and then yeah. And then they wonder again why they can't find a good man. And that's sadly that's the big part the the big realization that's slapping my car a lot of these a lot of these young feminists in the face. They're realizing, holy crap. I'm 38 years old. I'm 35, 38 years old, and I don't have my family yet. Right. And guess what? You're probably not gonna have your family because your eggs have used up.
Probably. It is harder for you at 35 to have a kid.
[01:43:23] Rich Chelson:
Yeah.
[01:43:24] Bryan Goodwin:
Is it possible? Yeah. I mean, there's there's been 60 year olds who have, all of a sudden, had a kid, and they're like, oh, holy shit. We've got a kid coming along. Right. But but again, it's but it's it's so to to the majority of women, when you get past 35, your ability to get pregnant and to have a healthy, healthy, baby starts It's just griddling. Yeah. And especially when you hit 50, all of a sudden, your your op your ability to produce a child that doesn't have down syndrome starts dropping. Right. Your chances of it of down syndrome child are increases as after 50. Not to mention, I mean, come on. Who wants to have a kid at 50? That means they're not leaving the house till you're 70.
[01:44:14] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. And I mean, some people want that. That's fine. But, you know, not even what it was. You're able to have that, that's great. But and if I had
[01:44:23] Bryan Goodwin:
you know, there's a part of me that kinda wishes. It's like, yeah. I would think it'd be kinda nice to have, you know, 7, 8 kids running around the house. I mean, the the grocery bill would would be be a bit painful. Okay. It would be horrendous, but at the same time, I would still I would probably take them and shove them outside and go, there's a garden over there. Work that garden. That's what we're eating.
[01:44:48] Rich Chelson:
Right. Because because 7, 8 if if you had 7, 8 kids, driving a truck would not
[01:44:55] Bryan Goodwin:
would not pay the bills. No. No. No. It wouldn't it wouldn't take care of the business at all. I mean, you would you would have to be you would you literally have to be living off the land. You would have to have a herd of cattle that you could take. You you could slaughter. Have some hogs. Have some chickens. Have some ducks. Have some geese. So that you had enough protein being produced to be able to feed that that Grant's army. So because you'd be walking around with Grant's army.
[01:45:22] Rich Chelson:
Well, I mean I mean, you would have a decent start on on a basketball team. Yeah. Yeah. Just finding it. True. But yeah. No. It just but I don't know. It just it just you know, these people do this thinking that, oh, I'm gonna get rich. I'm gonna get rich. And, and, you know, people need to pay me. They owe me. And then in 10 to 15 years, then they realize, oh, shit. I should have started it a long time back. You know? Yeah. Should have started backing your whip back when you were 20.
[01:45:59] Bryan Goodwin:
And I I'm a bit guilty of that on telling my kids that too. Because, like, let start looking at stuff in your, you know, get past 25 before you start looking looking to to get serious. Well, and same And My first marriage, I was 25 I'm I'm when I got married. Yeah. When I first married, I was 23. And I am now at point where I'm going, holy crap. No. That was bad advice I was giving my kids. Mhmm. Y'all wanna be as young as possible. Because one, you have plenty of energy to chase after the little shits when they're when they're growing up. Right. But But second of all though, the thing is still
[01:46:42] Rich Chelson:
The thing is you've got the media or, well, everybody, the, the, the school system and, and, and the woke liberals trying to deter the kids. Oh, yeah. You know, to to not get together or, or you, you know, not to get married and then all like this. And it's just, Yeah. Marriage is worth
[01:47:04] Bryan Goodwin:
it. Man, it's like really dang. You you wanna you wanna, one of the biggest lies that they I've heard more girls, and guys say is, well, you wanna you you wanna have sex, before you get married because how are you gonna know if that person's any good? Well, if you've never had sex, you're not gonna give a rat's ass with how good they are. You're just glad you're fucking getting it. Exactly. You don't have anything to put good is. Right? And if if she's if she's if she's a virgin, you're a virgin, y'all get to have the most fun out of everybody because you get to try everything and it is actually all kosher.
[01:47:40] Rich Chelson:
Yep. Yep. No. No. It's true. But but you see, that's the thing, you know, it's and and it's like and then later on, as they grow up, they start booing and, and, you know, everyone, oh, poor baby. I'm sorry. I don't, I don't feel sorry for you.
[01:47:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Precisely.
[01:48:00] Rich Chelson:
I I just I can't because I made my choices. I fucked up. I had to live with my choices. Yeah. I didn't ask anyone to feel sorry for me. Yeah. There you go. You're back.
[01:48:14] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. No. I was choked up.
[01:48:16] Rich Chelson:
Oh, but yeah. No. It it just I don't know. So, yeah, that, a thought.
[01:48:25] Bryan Goodwin:
A thought. And sadly, it is as they it makes them as as as valuable as a thought.
[01:48:36] Rich Chelson:
But you see, this is what I don't get. Why is this such a big deal? This has been the whole thing. Why why I mean, I mean, why is this such a big deal? I'm I'm not understanding. Nowadays?
[01:48:52] Bryan Goodwin:
I mean, nowadays, why or here just recently has become such a big deal is because it is because at first, yeah, you got the occasional the occasional, found the occasional dirty magazine. You may have found, you know, your your uncle may have had a collection of playboys and you came across 1. Right. And, you know, that was a that was a that was a rare thing. You you as your neighborhood had the the communal collection of maybe 3 magazines. Yeah. And you couldn't read half of them because the pages were stuck together. Right. Right. You know? You need it. So Yeah. It was hard to find, but, and, yeah. We were exposed to it. But nowadays, you're exposed You can view any type of debaucherous type of act for free at any time you want.
Mhmm. And, yeah, it's the guy's fault because they don't have the proverbial balls enough to actually go talk to a girl. It's easier to to to to squeeze one out and and, you know, shake one out and and then go to bed than to call up a girl and go, hey. What's going on? And take and risk the chance of being rejected. Yeah. I get being rejected hurts. Guess what? I'm married. I still get rejected. I'm like, hey, baby. You wanna no. Okay. Alright. Fine. And so it it that doesn't happen. Right. And we get you still are gonna get rejected when you're married, and that is all because again, I can look at it as it's a problem with her, but it's not. It's a problem with me.
If she doesn't have the connection with me, that's my fault.
[01:50:43] Rich Chelson:
Mhmm.
[01:50:44] Bryan Goodwin:
And so and and again, there for a while, yeah, I would sit there and I had no problem looking at porn. I had no problem mentioning the fact that I did look at porn. It was just, yeah, porn's there. It I look at it. I used to, I used to do a thing called screen wise, which was, there for a while, Google would pay you in points for the for you to allow them to spy on. Okay. Where do you go? What's your browsing habits? What do you do here? What's, you know, do all this stuff. And you would run your stuff through one of their proxy servers, and they would doc you know, they would record all all every place that you went. And for, depending on how many, devices you actually had set up, depended on how many points you actually got. Right. Right. And so that's where I got both my tents that I have, my fly rod, my, hatchet, my, my Hori Hori knife, and quite a few other outdoor materials was all thanks to Google and and their screen wise program.
[01:51:55] Rich Chelson:
Okay.
[01:51:56] Bryan Goodwin:
And, I used to have a couple of guys who knew that I was on there was, like, going, well, aren't you afraid that, that Google's gonna see that, see what you do? And it's like, all they're get all the information they gave him from me is that he spends a lot of time on Facebook and porn, you know? It was and okay. So they they know that I they'd know what type of girl I prefer to look at in on on pornographic sites. There's not much else other than that. Right. I mean, if they if I was a a political figure, I'm sure they could probably go, oh, yeah. Why is he after redheads that are, you know, that have got, 36, 24, 36, dimensions. It's like 5 foot 3, baby. 5 foot 3. You know?
It is because, you know we got back. Because they're because sorry. I I I I've always had a thing for fire crotch. It's just me, man.
[01:52:50] Rich Chelson:
Hey. Okay? Go for it, dude. But now it just but but you see, that's the thing. You know, why why do we because all of us, I'm not talking just us. I'm talking everybody in the whole world is guilty of something like this. Okay? Yeah. So so why are we being so self righteous to just this group of people?
[01:53:16] Bryan Goodwin:
Why is this the big thing is, I guess, actually what I'm asking. Because Because people are because the actually, society right now is starting to wake up to the fact that, 1, when when you are when you you think you're the only group who is being disadvantaged Mhmm. You're fooling yourself. And that's what feminists do. I mean, fem we've I've mentioned it before. Feminists is for equal opportunity. Right. It's not for equal opportunity of women. It's for equal opportunity of ugly women. Alright? Okay. Yeah. And so that's why that's why they allow, the cheer on the the good looking women to start going into porn. That's why they cheer on the good looking women to do the stuff that lowers their value.
Because if they can lower the value of the good looking women, then the ugly women who have 37 piercings on their face and have tattoos all, you know, up around their neck and and covering their and and on their eyes and everything else, it makes them just absolutely ready and horrendous looking. You know, they have a better chance of, oh, hey, look. I might accidentally be able to to land a a a rich bachelor.
[01:54:32] Rich Chelson:
Well, I mean, that I mean, anything's possible.
[01:54:35] Bryan Goodwin:
But No. Anything's possible. But at the same time, they they are women a lot of the feminists, if they stopped and sat back and paid attention to what was going on, they could see that, yeah, you have a better chance of getting a high valued man, but you even run a even better chance of just getting a damn good man.
[01:55:00] Rich Chelson:
Well, you see the thing is though it's simple. If if you have to bring someone else down to lift you up, that should tell you change the way you are. Take out your 37 fucking piercings. The tattoos you can't do anything about, but that's accepted nowadays. So don't fucking worry about that. Take out all them all all this metal in your face and change your mindset, change your attitude, and be a better person. And guess what? You'll stand to set at least an 80% chance of getting a good man.
[01:55:34] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah.
[01:55:35] Rich Chelson:
I can run a better chance when you I mean, think about it. Increase your value. Exactly. Instead of bringing other people down, because bringing someone else down to raise you up, that is, in my eyes, that's the worst thing anybody can do. That is the lowest form of disrespect. That, I mean, that is, that is just, oh, you know, it's like, no, you don't step on another motherfucker to get somewhere.
[01:56:03] Bryan Goodwin:
I can I can I I I see that and I I can con concur even though I'm sure people are going, but you've been doing it this whole time? And to a point, yeah. Yeah. I have been because I see so many of the good, beautiful girls who could have damn good guys believe in a lie that they don't have to get married right now. That, it is better to go out and to work in an work in a in a a corporation and try to be as manly as you possibly can to match the masculine energy of corporation. No. I'm And then they come they show up at the house. They're burnt out. They're frazzled.
They have no energy for their kids. They have no energy for their, for their husband if they are married. And that and then they and then the guys granted, the guys are not being any help either. The guys have to learn how to stand up and be manly
[01:57:09] Duuude-Ron :
Mhmm.
[01:57:10] Rich Chelson:
Because The right way. Not the right way. Way
[01:57:13] Bryan Goodwin:
and not the not And Manley is with an increased sense of masculinity, not a decreased sense masculinity. Those are where the the guys who are the quote, unquote toxic masculinity guys. There is a, there is a, time when that shows up, and that is when there's an absence of masculinity in a man's in a man's life. But if you can if the guys would step up and actually start, I've got 4 pillars that I I recommend men do. They need to be keep reading. They need to keep growing. They need to keep themselves in shape. They need to be able to, be pursuing a a project of some sorts, finding their purpose. And then but the most important being, they'd have a a community of men that they talk to on a regular basis. Hence, what what the 2 grumpy, vets and a dude is. Right. Exactly. We are are a little community, of guys who lift each other up. And and and actually, we
[01:58:15] Rich Chelson:
we have a call that's not recorded on Wednesday nights. Yeah. And it's, for vets who wanna join. Yeah. Yeah. That's for all vets. And sometimes we get, you know, 3 or 4 others jump in and, you know, we just have a good good time with it. But, you know, but, yeah, this that call on Wednesday night's not recorded, but you see, this is what we do. And and what you're hearing tonight, this is a a lot of times what we talk about, you know, because sometimes something nice says Brian Brian will challenge me on it or I'll challenge Brian on something Like like I've been doing Brian or sometimes dude, I'll challenge with or or dude will challenge me or Brian. And that's what helps bring men to be better.
Right. You know? I mean, not saying everyone's right all the time, but, you know, hey. Gives you something to think about. Right. And and disagreements
[01:59:13] Bryan Goodwin:
aren't a bad thing. No. Disagreements are actually very good. And that's, reading a book, by a guy named Jason, Gaddis. And, his his name of the book is, Getting to 0, and he's actually talking about how, conflict in your life actually helps you have the better relationship because it does force you to get better. If you're too busy worrying about what, what's going on on your inside Mhmm. You're not going to be seeking to understand your your your spouse better. And she's gonna have a disagreement. And so that you don't have to worry about the inner conflict you're having, you're going to avoid having a discussion with her. And so the lack of discussion, which is a lack of of conflict, conflict being just not seeing eye to eye, when you have conflict, you actually get a better connection with each other because you get to have a better understanding with each other. Okay.
Okay. I can I can I can kinda see that? So I I I and I'm still struggling, God, fully seeing it. I'm like going, man, but let me go on here. You you want I don't wanna fight with my wife to have a good time. I mean, that's
[02:00:35] Rich Chelson:
like, you know, and I and that's my goal. And that's where anti confrontation that shows up on that. That's work that I have to do. Right. Right. But but, see, that's where that's where, I I mean, I can kinda see what he's saying, but I would need to read the book to get the full context. Right. And because yeah. No. Most of what you said right as of right now, I couldn't fully
[02:00:59] Bryan Goodwin:
grasp it, you know, just because Right. I haven't read the book. I mean Yeah. I'm on I'm on, like, chapter I think I've got, like, 4 more hours of listening. So I'm I'm still somewhat, I'm I'm about 6 hours into a 10 hour book. So I've still got a ways to go.
[02:01:16] Rich Chelson:
Well, you're,
[02:01:18] Bryan Goodwin:
you you're more than halfway. So Yeah. Yeah. I have cleared the halfway mark. So but anyhow, so what, what do we have for time? So that way I don't go sideways again. It's 953.
[02:01:31] Rich Chelson:
953.
[02:01:31] Bryan Goodwin:
Alright. That's so good. Last time I looked, we didn't have any new, boosters. Have you,
[02:01:39] Rich Chelson:
let me double check real quick. Oh, no, I've got nothing in in the chat here.
[02:01:48] Bryan Goodwin:
Alright. So Okay. So alright. Well, guys, this is a, this podcast and and live video feed that we're doing right now is just a little something extra, but our show as a whole is a podcasting 2.0 compatible, Chico, which means that we work off of value for value. You're not gonna see us pimping, you know, mattresses or or food delivery systems or anything like that. Or jeeps. We'll not or talk about jeeps, but we Well, yeah. We can't even sell a jeep Jeep. But, but Yeah. We're we don't have sponsors. Never will have sponsors. We're not we don't have sponsors. We're not gonna do any type of sponsoring. If you catch us advertising anything, it'll probably be end up being Merck. So that's about the closest that we're gonna be. Yeah. Iron merch. Yeah. And so but one of the things that we are doing so that we can actually afford the hosting fees, so we can afford to be able to produce merch, merchandise and things like that, is that we are a value for values, podcast.
Which means that not only do we, hope that maybe somewhere along the way, you might send us some money, which you can do if you go to 2 grumpy vets.com. You'll see a value for value tab at the top. You can hit that and you can send us a you can actually set up a reoccurring purchase or payment through PayPal, and we can we'll receive those, those types of payments. But we also, we also just enjoy having and are grateful for any type of value you wanna give. If you are a, value for value is time, talent, or treasure. So if you have, time in your in your day and you wanna be able to help us out by, by working on on chapters for the next episode, we can we can, help you we get you set up so that you can actually set up the the chapters and get all that taken care of. If you are good at graphic Cover art.
Doing chapter art, cover art. We always try to change the the cover art. I'd love to have start getting multiple people, competing for the for the cover art. And what we would do is just take the cover all the different submitted cover arts and use them for the chapter arts also. So we can show people show all the different, chapters, all the different hard work that y'all have done. So there's there's also that. We've got so many different ways that you can you can contribute. If you do, do graphic design, maybe you help us some way, form, or or another. We, if somewhere down the way may maybe we get big enough here on on on Twitch, we don't get our happy asses kicked off down the road somewhere that, you know, we all of a sudden are, need some moderators. So maybe if you're if you're popular or not popular, but if you're active enough and maybe you have have sent, sent over some, some SATS stuff, we might be able to utilize you in that in that department.
But also, if you have any comments or questions and stuff like that, we also use the SATs which falls under the, the the treasure. This is the money that, that you have chosen to send over to us. But we also you can also send us questions by doing a boostogram, and you can do all of this through a podcasting 2.0 compliant, podcast app. These are apps like, Fountain or Podverse or Podcast Guru. True Fans. You get you can find truth, true fans. You can get all these, by going over to new podcasting, new podcast app dot com or go to, podcasting 2.org/apps, and you will be able to see all the different types of apps that are, that are available there. And, you just choose 1 and see which one you like. I know Podcast Guru is about to come out with a new, new version, and that version is supposed to have, smart list on it, which if that happens, that'll be great because I've I've been using Cast O Matic.
And the all there's I've got one big problem with Cast O Matic, and that is when you try to speed up your, your your your app listing speed, you get to you start getting clipping in there. So you you start hearing little artifacts of the fact that they're cutting the No. The sound out Yeah. Yeah. And stuff. So it it draws you out of the show. And, I don't like that. That's about the only complaint I have about, Cast O Matic. Other than other than I really do wish that they, would incorporate a couple of the other features, like the person's tag and, and the blog roll. I think those would be great features to have added into the Cast O Matic app also. Well, maybe in the future, they'll have it. Yeah. They probably add them into future. I mean, it wouldn't be it shouldn't I don't think it would be that hard. This is being developer Brian who's never developed anything. So
[02:06:57] Rich Chelson:
But but yeah. And and and, honestly, also, if, reach out to us and just say, hey. We'd love to hear from you. Love to hear got an idea for to hear your feedback.
[02:07:09] Bryan Goodwin:
A story that you wanna discuss or you've got a top a a a a a segment that you think we ought to, ought to incorporate, reach out. You can, reach rich over at rchelson atgmail.com. I'm at circle cast. That's circle cast as in like fishing line casting, [email protected]. And dude is, well, he's a secret. So you can so you can if you wanna if you wanna know any information from Dude, just shoot us an email, and we will when we read it out on the show on, on air, we'll let, we'll let dude answer the answer the question then. So, yeah, send send in all all your questions and comments
[02:07:55] Rich Chelson:
for the dude.
[02:07:58] Bryan Goodwin:
And so we would love to be able to hear from you, because that we're we're not getting far from being tired of doing this show because society and and and the Internet itself keeps producing more and more interesting stuff to talk about.
[02:08:13] Rich Chelson:
Right. So and and, Yeah. You know do you know this will be episode 10, I believe?
[02:08:21] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Episode 9. 0 99. Okay. Never mind. Yep. My bad. Yep. One more. We got one one. Next week next week's, is episode 10. So we're we're but, yeah, we have made it past the dreaded 7th episode. Yes. We have. So we have done more than the majority of all the anchor cast out there. So woo hoo. Back on. Actually, I think there's, like, 2 ache casts that have gone longer than than 7 episodes. Most of them don't even make it past episode 2. So
[02:08:55] Rich Chelson:
Right. Right. Well, they all expect expect to make Joe Rogan money.
[02:09:00] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, yeah. But You know? Now Joe Rogan now now even Joe Rogan ain't making Joe Rogan money. So Right. He he's they they were like going, okay. Okay. You go do your thing and we're not gonna we we don't have the money to spend that spend that again. Right.
[02:09:18] Duuude-Ron :
You're right.
[02:09:20] Bryan Goodwin:
So that and it it's it's good to see him back on back on YouTube again. I think he's still working to get built back up, a little bit, but he he he's still he's still showing up.
[02:09:32] Rich Chelson:
Well, good deal.
[02:09:34] Bryan Goodwin:
So but, anyhow, so, before we go, we all like to have just give each each of y'all a a little closing in mind is, guys, I know we're we've been kinda hard on on certain segments, of society, but doesn't mean that it is something that we are to hate. It's not something that we are to to look down upon. Yes. There are there are issues with the choices that they have made, but at the same time, we they are still humans. They are still, still people who have a a great experience in their life. And so to to demean them strictly because of what they are and because you've decided that they're not the, the wife material that you would like to have, doesn't mean that you're to exclude them either.
They are humans. They made the choice. They made the conscious choice. They have they they are they have their own, own bed that they've made and now they get to get sleep in it. But they are still a a contributing member to society because they are actually, go questionably bringing in money how they are bringing it in. They are still people. And so, never wanna actually dissuade somebody, by by doing a complete total ostracization because remember, those tables can always change on And what do you think you're on the on the, one side and you're like, ah, well, we're gonna we're we're not gonna have anything to do with it. We're gonna cancel you. Just know that that canceling can also happen the opposite direction, and all you have to do is be on the wrong side. So it's always good to show a little bit of compassion towards anybody and everybody around you. So, guys, with that, I'm gonna pass the, pass it on over to Rich. Rich, what do you got as a close part?
[02:11:40] Rich Chelson:
Well, kinda about what you're saying, just, you know, yes. Yes. We do talk a lot about, you know, different cultures and and whatever, you know, Gen x, Gen z, and all like this and all like that. But in the end, just be kind because you don't know what the other person is going through. You don't know why they're doing what they're doing. They might have to do it that way for a while. They don't like to, but they might have to. But in the end, just, you know, just be kind because it's not your job to judge other people. Judge yourself.
You know, look inside first and, you know, just just be nice. And, you know, because a smile that you give someone might keep that person alive for the rest of the day. You don't know.
[02:12:32] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. So But but also remember, if you don't have anything nice to say, come sit over here by me.
[02:12:42] Rich Chelson:
This is why we talk so much, Brian. Exactly.
[02:12:45] Bryan Goodwin:
So alright. Now, dude, what do you got for your closing remarks?
[02:12:51] Duuude-Ron :
I said it before, and I'll say it again. There are a lot of service members that are hurting mentally inside. So if you know a service member that is struggling and thinking about suicide, talk to them. K. Find out what is troubling them and see if you can't help them. Because right now, the average is 22 a day. We lose 22 service members or retirees or just people that have been in the military, we lose 22 a day on average just suicide. And that is 22 a day, too many. So, again, if you know somebody that's hurting, you know, please reach out. Go.
Your your conversation and your voice may be what they need to get over that particular hurdle and or event and help him along in life.
[02:14:16] Rich Chelson:
Sounds good. Absolutely. That's that's exactly right.
[02:14:22] Bryan Goodwin:
So alright. So guys, again, any questions, comments, or the likes, send it over to brian@orbrian@relaxmail. That's that's my other podcast, relax mail dot com. This is circle cast atrelax g mail. I keep wanting to go to relax mail. I'm following my own my old script. But, [email protected]@gmail.com. And, guys, with that, thank you all again for listening. Thanks again for anybody who happens to be watching over there on Twitter. I don't know if we had any listeners at all or not, but they're viewers or what. I don't think so. I didn't see it. Think so either, but that's okay. That means we get to be, we get to be terrible until we're good and people start discover. So Right. Alright. So, guys, with that, we will catch y'all later. Alright. Then, bye.
[02:15:13] Duuude-Ron :
Later, Gator. Peace out.
[02:15:16] Bryan Goodwin:
See you.
Now, you know, that is that is kinda weird because I have thoughts, but they are not brutal.
[00:00:05] Bryan Goodwin:
Hey, man. Hello, and welcome to 2 grumpy Vets and a duuude. I'm your host, Brian, and I am here with Rich and the duuude. We are back yet again. And this time, we're actually adding a little extra to the whole thing. If you happen to be over on Twitch or you wanna follow us on Twitch, and we will talk about why it is a typo, but there is a typo in our name on Twitch. But we we go over to 2 grumpy guests, and and and you'll find us there. It's just grumpy without the V because, apparently, I didn't hit the v hard enough. Stupid finger syndrome. Stupid finger stupid finger syndrome. So yeah. Yeah. Apparently, you got I've got about we've got about another month and a week or so before I can actually change the name and add the v and and and and all that. So so anyhow so yeah. Yep. You can y'all can find us over there. We are going live. You can actually see our ugly mugs live and in person. You will catch a couple of extra, oddities that happen that, may get end up cut being cut out of the, of the final episode once we go through and do the editing.
[00:01:12] Rich Chelson:
That can always happen. But No. I know. It does sometimes. Yeah. Sometimes.
[00:01:17] Bryan Goodwin:
So, yeah, if if Yeah. I catch myself picking my nose without without any, attention, then I'm like, oh, yeah. I gotta cut that out. So
[00:01:26] Rich Chelson:
Yes. Well, I mean, normally, I do the audio, so I can't tell if you're picking your nose or not unless you say something. And then and then and then, normally, I just leave it in because it's audio.
[00:01:38] Bryan Goodwin:
So it doesn't sound like anybody can see you. Unless it makes a really, really vocal sound of, oh, wow.
[00:01:49] Duuude-Ron :
What's that, Dan? Just just think of it like this. You can pick your nose. You can pick your butt, but you can't pick your family.
[00:02:00] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, don't think that's how that really goes. I can say pick your nose, pick your maybe pick your friends, but you can't pick your friend's nose. That's true too. I don't
[00:02:12] Rich Chelson:
I'm out. I don't know.
[00:02:16] Bryan Goodwin:
So, anyhow, guys, we are 3, 3 on, not quite quite there, but we're we're the, we're 3 gen x, guys who are also happen to be, be be bet same time. And, yeah. Yeah. We just are together here to have a have a good time, talk to each other because this is our just our normal meeting time. We sit back, get around to to yabber and talk to each other and, and and have a good time just to commiserate and intentionally live with live each other's lives through through each other. So it is just a means of us being able to maintain connection. And that's one of the biggest things that we do. And we, what does this show about? It is about just about anything we find. We'll be we perusing through the Internet, and all of a sudden, we'll find a news story that just fascinates the booger out of us. We'll go ahead. We'll we'll talk it out. And sometimes it gets a little on the political side. Other times, not so much political. Other times, it's just, you know, we're talking out of our ass. And so it it is what it is. And so yeah. Yeah. So now And and and, plus at times,
[00:03:30] Rich Chelson:
we, we talk about stuff that's happened in, in our daily lives, you know? So, you know, I mean, it, it just depends on on what we're gonna talk about because we try and frame it before we start the show, but, yeah, that, yeah, about, what, 2 minutes in, we're squirreled anyways. Oh, yeah. Yeah. We're we're
[00:03:51] Bryan Goodwin:
think we know where we're gonna start, and we wind up not being anywhere close to that. So so but, yeah, so, our our our mass comedian, of the night, otherwise known as dude? What have you been up to here recently this past week?
[00:04:09] Duuude-Ron :
No. It's been about the same. Just, you know, driving my normal routes, and now we're having fun with the heat. So and in Texas, it's either damn hot or it's damn cold. There's really no in between. But it's June, and we're getting into the damn hot, so it's like and it's only gonna get hotter.
[00:04:29] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. I'm never gonna bitch about
[00:04:31] Duuude-Ron :
never gonna bitch about the heat. I mean, yeah, I could bitch about it. I'd bitch about the cold too, but guess what? God's in control of that, and he's not asking. He's just gonna tell you, it's gonna be hot today. And then you're gonna say, damn. It was hot today. However, I did learn something on the new ELD system that we have in our trucks. It is like, is not an iPad, but it's the it's a pad based system. Tablet. Mhmm. Tablet. There you go. I'm sorry. And Yo. You're good. Today, be and because I didn't drive today, I was at the plant today, but I had to drive and drop off a trailer that we were turning in to get maintenance done on it, so I had to log in to my vehicle.
And then when I went to go log out of my vehicle later that day, the tablet was telling me you can't do any functions because the tablet is overheating. Yeah. And the only thing I could think to myself is, great. If I don't have the air conditioning on inside of the truck or something happens and it gets too hot inside the truck, my ELD is just gonna say, I'm done. I'm tired. I'm done working. I guess you it's time to pull out the paper logs.
[00:05:57] Bryan Goodwin:
Almost. Almost. But yeah. Yeah. The, for those who don't, don't know, Ron and and myself, are both still continuing professional truck drivers. That's what we do for a living. We hop in hop in our 18 wheelers and and carry products from, from one place to another. And, we are regulated by the, Department of Transportation, and we are actually members of the most regulated, unregulated industry there is. And part of that is the electronic log, device, which is what ELD stands for. And so yeah. And there's no one's been real happy with this thing except for, like, the unions. They seem to like it quite a bit, but, those who actually work to make money are not fans of this thing at all.
Because, because it does. It reg it restricts you from, from being able to get, where you need. And, you know, you have, like, one of the biggest problems I ever had with it was, I'm one where if I start feeling tired because, you know, I may go off, screw up something on my diet, you know, have a have a ham sandwich or something like that. And all the all the carbs from the and sugars from the, from the bread all wear off. And so, you know, somewhere along around 2, 3 o'clock in the afternoon, sometimes you get kinda tired. And I'd like to just stop, take a little 30 minute power nap, and be up and running, go again, and be just fine. And, yeah, there's, there's times that you really can't do that. I mean, they've made it easier here with the last couple years, but back when that, that 8 hour, rule came out, yeah, it was it was a it was a big pain on the butt because it you had to you had to, well, you still have to stop after 8 hours if you are. But now if you stop for for the required 30 minutes, you don't have to be off duty. You just stop. And and if you did, it takes you an hour and a half to get loaded, then hooray, Hoopsah. You're you're you're, you're all topped up on your 8 hour clock, and you can start running again. Oh, they they changed it then. Good. Yeah. Yeah. They changed it, thankfully. But they're for a while. I mean and there's still times. I mean, like today, hell, I was driving. I knew I wasn't gonna get to my destination, tonight. And so I was like, oh, well, I'm I feel kinda I feel kinda sluggish, feel kinda kinda droopy eyed. I'd rather, make sure that I get my product to, to the destination. So I'll stop, find a truck stop, stop, pull in, stop, and again, take a 30, 45 minute power nap, and and away I go. Right. Right. Now, dude now, dude,
[00:08:51] Rich Chelson:
what else was he saying about your, your tablet there?
[00:08:56] Duuude-Ron :
Oh, that because my vehicle was not being used today and the inside because it's hot outside, the inside of the cabin is hot, The tablet is telling me that it is overheating. Yep. You know, now is it gonna if something happens on the inside of my cab where the air conditioning breaks, is my tablet gonna overheat? I know I'm gonna overheat. Hell.
[00:09:20] Rich Chelson:
No. It's possible. Very possible.
[00:09:23] Duuude-Ron :
Is it gonna tell me, gee, I'm overheating. I'm not gonna work anymore, so I guess you just get to, do everything by paper, and I'm not gonna do anything. Well, that's something I found out new today on my system.
[00:09:36] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, I bet you more than anything, what you'll find out with that is because the critical part of an ELD system is that it cannot leave the truck. And that means that there the actual device that they stick underneath the underneath your, usually, it goes underneath the dash, but mine actually just sits on sits on, on top of the dash and is visible to everybody.
[00:10:03] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. That it placed all of ours so that it was easier to do maintenance if they needed to change that. Right. You know, hub as far as, you know, my overall system in my truck. You know, they put them on our dashes as well. And that very well could be that that piece of electronics is overheating and not the actual
[00:10:28] Rich Chelson:
tablet itself. No. No. No. It's not. No. It's it's the actual tablet. Tablet. Yeah. Yeah. It's the tablet. I don't know. Was because when that,
[00:10:37] Bryan Goodwin:
that the device that's connected, it actually will it it stores all the data, and it's sending it on up to the Internet into the cloud where it, your your tablet, when it cools off, will actually just pull all that information down. Because ours ours I use the the Samsera, system on on my this truck. And so, all I have to do is I just actually, I just use my phone as my ELD log, log shower and where I make all the changes and put in that I'm, you know, getting loaded or unloading or taking a break or eating or or, you know, drop and hook and or whatever other type of, term that they wanna make except for daily reset. They wanna make sure that you have, it's required to put a comment whenever you change status, when you manually change the status, except they don't have anything for overnight. If you go to off duty or sleep of birth, you have to put something in there. But they don't have, you know, daily reset or cycle reset. What's the purpose of you stopping for?
[00:11:45] Duuude-Ron :
Right. So Okay. Well, and see, with you being over the road where I am not over the road Yeah. You can see. Yeah. We're on a reset cycle every 24 hours. Okay. Yeah. So we we can run when we clock in, we have 14 hours. Yep. 11 of those, you can drive. 3 of them on duty. You know, doing a pre trip inspection of the vehicle, loading, unloading, all that other stuff. But we get 11 hours that we can drive, and then we have to take a 10 hour break Yep. And then for 5 days and then 36. So ours is just a little bit of what difference of what yours is and mine will actually Honestly, yours doesn't sound that much different really.
[00:12:36] Bryan Goodwin:
Because I mean, I've got the I've got yeah. I've got, in a 24 hour period, I've got 14 hours of on duty time. Of that 14 hours of of on duty time, I've got 11 hours of driving. So there's that 3 hour extra that you were talking about. Yeah. But,
[00:12:55] Rich Chelson:
Brian, what what, what a dude was saying, though, I think I I might be wrong here. Dude has a reset every 24 hours. You don't,
[00:13:06] Bryan Goodwin:
you run all weekend and work on a 34 hour. Reset. Well, he's he was saying that at the at the end that, he has to take a 36 hour, break and and do a cycle reset.
[00:13:18] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. The overall the weekly cycle reset, we have to have a
[00:13:22] Bryan Goodwin:
36 hour break, which is because you only you're only allowed 70 hours in in the week.
[00:13:28] Rich Chelson:
So Yeah. Well well, with dude, though, with him being under the well, you see, I don't know. I don't know. The rules changed so much after I stopped. You know? Because when when I was driving oh, yeah. We could do whatever we wanted, basically. But, you know, we still had, you know, the 11 and 14 and all like that and the 70 hours and 8 days and then the 34 hour reset, which I freaking hated that. Oh, yeah. Because I always lost money then, but either way, you know, and
[00:14:03] Bryan Goodwin:
they've changed it even more now. So Yeah. Yeah. You've got even a if you're if you stay if you're driving a truck and you're within a 150 miles of home base
[00:14:14] Rich Chelson:
Mhmm.
[00:14:15] Bryan Goodwin:
And and that's what we call on those kids. I'm like, yeah. Okay. So you have actually miles. Right. Yeah. So you should be able to do drive for 12 hours. You could do 12 hour shifts is what I've under always understood on the 150 mile rule.
[00:14:36] Duuude-Ron :
No. We're it's 11 and 11, I can create. 11 and 3, 14, and then back our shutdown.
[00:14:43] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, okay. Man. Again, they the the government Maybe it's just air gas. Can't keep the can't keep a a rule for no longer than 30 minutes anyhow. So Well, true. But, hey, Brian,
[00:14:56] Rich Chelson:
That could be an, air gas rule too.
[00:14:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I guess they Because
[00:15:02] Rich Chelson:
because the thing is on the rules, they can't change the DOT rules,
[00:15:07] Bryan Goodwin:
but a freaking company rule, it can be stronger than the DOT rules. Yeah. And the and the DOT won't say nothing about it. No. They they won't throw a fit about that. Right. If it restricts the driver from being able to do more, they they're the deal Department of Transportation is all for it. Shit. Yeah. Yes. And that's and that's where my company,
[00:15:28] Duuude-Ron :
when they dropped the 30 minute mandatory lunch break, as you would call it, yeah, After 8 hours, we still have to do that. Even though DOT, we don't have to do that. Air gas, you have to. My yeah. Air gas, we have to after 8 hours, we have to take a break. K. Yeah. Regardless. Within the first 8 hours.
[00:15:57] Bryan Goodwin:
So is that take a break, or is that kinda like the way the DOT works where you can, as long if it'll like, if you're over at, at your destination and it's it takes an hour to unload, that's considered a 30 minute break.
[00:16:13] Duuude-Ron :
Well, yeah. If I'm sitting in the truck and say I'm having my lunch and I go off duty, yeah, as long as I'm in the off duty status for 30 minutes,
[00:16:26] Bryan Goodwin:
then I'm good for another 8 hours. So do you wanna off duty and go on ahead and get yourself unloaded while you're while you're truck thinks you're off duty? Yeah. Because I'm not touching anything. Good boy. Good boy. Alright. Long long as you'll be on a proper or proper truck driver, been to the rules ever so slightly.
[00:16:45] Duuude-Ron :
Well, see, I'm not telling you that. Break them.
[00:16:50] Rich Chelson:
I didn't binge. Yeah. I broke the shit out of them.
[00:16:56] Duuude-Ron :
Sam. When I say no one, I was a 2. You were a 1 percenter.
[00:17:02] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. You yeah. You can say that. I mean, I I have freaking paid for it, quite a bit though. I mean, I'd get caught every now and again, not all the time, but every now and again. And I'll tell you what, those fines add up.
[00:17:19] Bryan Goodwin:
They can. Yeah.
[00:17:20] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. Yeah.
[00:17:22] Bryan Goodwin:
Absolutely. So so, Rich, how about you? What have you been up to?
[00:17:28] Rich Chelson:
Well, I finally got over my ordeal. My my my house ordeal.
[00:17:35] Bryan Goodwin:
I was like, oh, no. Yeah. No. I it Your ordeal, What do we do? You spend time at the hopsicle? Or
[00:17:44] Rich Chelson:
No. No. It, yeah. As I as as as I have said on a few other previous episodes, you know, I was working on buying a house and waiting on the appraisal, which took 27 days, and it was only supposed to take 10 days, but, you know, leave it to the VA appraiser to get lost, I guess. So, yep. Oh, the appraisal finally come through and I was I was under contract for 125,000 for this house, 2 bedroom house. The appraisal came in at a 102,000. And so, normally normally, the seller does not find out the appraisal, what it comes in at. Okay?
Right. Unless unless they pay for it, which this guy is actually paying for it. So, you know, but, and and since we had a contract, I found out that, in order instead of just writing up another contract, we'd do an amendment, you know, and make a new offer of 102,000.
[00:18:58] Duuude-Ron :
Right. But
[00:19:00] Rich Chelson:
but, I was talking with my realtor, Melinda, and, we decided to or I decided, actually, to, let the seller know the price I was gonna offer him before we did the paperwork. You know? Because this way here, give him time to know him and think about it. You know, if he's good with it, fine. If not, he can back out. Well
[00:19:26] Bryan Goodwin:
Right.
[00:19:27] Rich Chelson:
And, so I told him that. I think that was what? On Tuesday And I think Wednesday, got a call and, yeah, the seller said, no. I ain't I ain't selling it that low. So so I am currently not buying a house anymore.
[00:19:50] Bryan Goodwin:
Wanna be
[00:19:51] Rich Chelson:
homeless? No. No. No. No. I'm not homeless. I still have I still have a place. It's not a place I wanna be, but you know what? I'm thankful I have it.
[00:20:02] Bryan Goodwin:
Right.
[00:20:03] Rich Chelson:
You know? But, but, yeah, it just yeah. It wasn't meant to be. And, so, yeah, I'm gonna sit back and wait and probably look around, see if I can't find something else, something a little bigger and everything. So and I did find out though this, second time around since, since the loan officer ladies, since I have all my information from this first go around, the second time is not as hard
[00:20:35] Bryan Goodwin:
because
[00:20:36] Rich Chelson:
Good. They'll just they'll just transfer all the numbers they have. They just might need to, update a few things. But and and the approval I was approved for, will last for like 4 months. So
[00:20:56] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, really? I figured it was a lot longer than that.
[00:20:58] Rich Chelson:
No. Well, yeah, no. I didn't know. And I had asked him. I'm like, I'm like, how long is this good for? And she said, normally 120 days. So I'm like, okay, that's cool. I almost had to take my, shoes off to count that high, but you know what? I muddled through. So, yeah. And that's, and honestly, the last couple of days, I've just been playing games. I've been playing Cyberpunk 2077.
[00:21:31] Bryan Goodwin:
So what part are you up to? Have you done the big heist yet? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I did that. Oh, okay. So you're just going through doing the side quest, or you're going through the main story?
[00:21:41] Rich Chelson:
I don't know what the hell I'm doing, dude. Okay.
[00:21:45] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay. On the on the game
[00:21:47] Rich Chelson:
I'm just shoot, guy the fuck. I walk up if if if I walk up and there's dudes that are yellow, you know, and not blue or green, if they're yellow, I shoot them on the spot and start a war. I freaking kill them.
[00:22:02] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. It's And ask questions later. What's that? And ask questions later.
[00:22:07] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Hell no. I just walk away, dude. Don't even worry about that. Yeah. Just just go off. Great. Yoink everything that's that's that's not attached to, attached to them and and, and and walk off. So
[00:22:20] Rich Chelson:
Oh, I did I did learn one thing. Do not shoot a police officer.
[00:22:28] Bryan Goodwin:
Every time you shoot, do how how many stars you got so far?
[00:22:32] Rich Chelson:
Oh, I don't I I don't know how many stars I have, but I am a Well, I mean, how many whenever you were being pursued by the police after accidentally shooting them,
[00:22:42] Bryan Goodwin:
how long you you have a you have a wanted level, and that's in in number of stars.
[00:22:48] Rich Chelson:
What's the highest you've gotten on there? I I don't know. Okay. I I haven't even seen it. All all I know is is Top right hand corner. Okay. I'll I'll I'll have to look when I have it on. But but all I know is is I was seeing this dude and, I mean, it was a long way away. So I thought it was a bad guy. And he turned red. Well, no. No. I thought it was a bad guy because there was other bad guys. So I shot him, come to find out it was a cop.
[00:23:18] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah.
[00:23:19] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. And then, yeah, the cops flooded me. And, and I mean, I honestly, I freaking held out pretty good for a little bit, but yeah. Yeah. In the end, I I have found a way to, I just stopped the game. I just hit the PlayStation plus button and shut it down.
[00:23:35] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay. Well, there's things you could do. Alright? First off, if you find you out you've shot the cop and and they're coming after you, you can run. And all you have to do is break line of sight with them for a particular amount of time. And that's why you wanna look up, look up in the top right hand corner because you'll see your stars, what your one indolipital is. And when that thing starts flashing, you it'll, it'll start flashing and it'll go faster and faster and faster, and then you'll hear a little little chime noise, and that drops. And the police could be standing right next to you on the opposite side. And when it drops, it's funny because, you know, these guys are all looking for you. And the moment they see you, they know who you are. Mhmm. But the moment your wanted level disappears and you've, successfully avoided the cops, you could walk right past them and they're just like, alright, dude. Okay. Just a normal day. This
[00:24:31] Rich Chelson:
Well well, well, you see, it's funny because because at first, when I found out that I shot that cop I mean, and and this was purely on accident. I walked up there and I was like, oh, shit. I shot a cop. And then all of a sudden, I started getting shot at it. So I turned around and started shooting back. Only it was nothing but cops. Yeah. Hi, motherfuckers.
[00:24:53] Bryan Goodwin:
You know? I was like, hey. I I Woah.
[00:24:57] Rich Chelson:
Woah. Woah. Woah. Woah. I did not mean to do this. Yeah. No. We're gonna fight it out.
[00:25:03] Bryan Goodwin:
And And yeah. And you will find out when you start attacking, like, a group of maelstroms or something that are hanging out in a blow group, or if they are actually gonna shoot out with cops, and you'll find them from time to time and shoot ass with the cop. If you accidentally shoot a cop, the cops ignore Baelstrom, the other the other gang that was that they were attacking. And everybody turns their attention on you. So
[00:25:30] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. No. That was so so yeah. No. And, yeah. Yeah. I did the big heist.
[00:25:36] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay.
[00:25:38] Rich Chelson:
I've I've got another 2 or 3
[00:25:40] Bryan Goodwin:
stories that I'm running right now. So Okay. Well, the way the way you tell is if you're doing the main story, the yellow circles with the exclamation points are the main story missions. Yeah. I don't think I'm doing those. I just I've I've got I would on honestly,
[00:25:57] Rich Chelson:
what I would recommend started.
[00:25:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. What I would recommend, as a whole, just start doing all the side missions and beef yourself out to where you become just Uber Dude. So you become just just super v. Just start doing like, you'll start up in Watson and just work your way down all the way through there and and do all the little all the little missions, all the fixer mission the fixer missions can be actually really cool. And kinda do just do your exploring, because you'll find some you'll find some really cool things and some really neat little mini stories inside those those side missions. Like, you'll find this. Skippy the AI gun is, is a fun one.
[00:26:45] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Yeah. No. I I mean, I'm just I'm just doing missions and and trying to follow the stories as best as I can, and then and then I freaking walk around and shoot people if, if, you know, well, like, like there's this one dude I come walking around the corner. The dude's already yellow. He sees me, looks me, and turns red. I shot him. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, no. Sorry, dude. I just walked up. Didn't didn't even walk him, say nothing to him. I just walked around the corner and he turned red fixing to shoot me. I'm like, yeah, about that. And
[00:27:21] Bryan Goodwin:
that was about a home. That started to start getting people angry at you just because you're standing there in the middle of the road.
[00:27:28] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. It's like, I'm gonna shoot your house. And I did. And then and then 3rd, 4 of his friends turned and started shooting. I'm like, alright, boys. It's done. Let's go. So yeah.
[00:27:40] Bryan Goodwin:
But yeah. No. Absolutely. Start do all the little blue, side missions first, until you get until you get, like, Watson all cleared out. And, it get all your handler missions, or not handler, fixer missions, and, get all the little blue markers taken care of. And then then do your if there's any yellows that are in that area, get those done. You'll find the experience to be a lot more fun, and you'll get a lot more done. Also, don't forget to pay attention to your phone.
[00:28:16] Rich Chelson:
Oh, yeah. I know. That thing, I got, like, 500 freaking messages.
[00:28:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, there there's there's side missions in there too. There's secret side missions you don't wanna miss.
[00:28:26] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Well
[00:28:27] Bryan Goodwin:
especially the ones with mama Wells.
[00:28:30] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Yeah. I'm just yeah. I just I just I just been playing the last couple days. I mean, shoot, they had dropped the price. It was 49.99. Yeah. And, and I was like, nah. Hell, no. I ain't paying that much. And and the other day, I was looking and they said, 29.99. Click. I bought it. Sold. Yeah. I was done. So yeah. So because you see, I had the trial, and I'd already played the 5 hours. Right. And and and I and the price was 49.99 and I was not willing to pay that. So I just waited patiently. And then so, yeah, I've been I've been I've been enjoying my my endeavor.
[00:29:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. It's a it that is one of the best best stories, for an RPG that I've come across. That and, like I said, I'll get you back on Red Dead here sometime in the future. Red Dead's amazing. That's that is my favorite, video game story still at the moment.
[00:29:40] Rich Chelson:
And, yeah, dude's, dude's over here sitting in the background, like, yeah, motherfucker, Atari. Atari, dude.
[00:29:49] Duuude-Ron :
No. I was going to chime in and say Mario Brothers.
[00:29:54] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, okay. That's fun. That's fun one.
[00:29:57] Rich Chelson:
Hey. Mario Brothers is cool.
[00:30:01] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. Do Mario Brothers. I ain't gonna do the rest of that. You know, call the honor, call of duty or, you know, call the honor. No.
[00:30:14] Rich Chelson:
No. Now now, Ron, you would like this one, believe it or not. It's it's on PlayStation. You can get it on PlayStation 4 or 5, whatever. It's it's called call of duty world war 2. And it's basically the big red one fighting the Germans on D Day. It's it's actually pretty fucking cool. It's a I mean, I mean, it's a challenge because these boys will kill you quick. But but now you will play by yourself. You don't play with online with anybody. You would just play by yourself and everything. And it's it's actually really cool. I haven't played it for a while, but I've got the disc.
[00:30:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I'll let you just pop it in. Most of most Call of Duties except for, until they decided, hey. We're gonna go into the the battle royale, game software as a serve game as a service, model. They used to have some great stories. I mean, the whole black ops and ghosts, storylines were phenomenal.
[00:31:24] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. But then then they went in just and just opened up everything and just let everybody run around and just act a fool.
[00:31:33] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I mean, Vanguard was, it was a game. It was a it it was a story mission, but it wasn't very get it wasn't the grandest. I mean, it takes you maybe 6 hours if you play like me, and, and and you're it's done. Yeah. It's a very, very short little mission.
[00:31:56] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Well, this one this one, world war 2,
[00:31:59] Bryan Goodwin:
believe it or not. Oh, yeah. It'd be 40 hour games.
[00:32:03] Rich Chelson:
I'm not even I'm not even halfway through the first set of missions. Yeah. I don't think. I can't make it. I I think I think I'm over in France right now. So so I've made it, you know, across Normandy beach. Uh-huh. And I've I've made it into France, and I think I'm fixing to go into Italy.
[00:32:28] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. And now it's not just, it's not just, Europe. You also wind up, the the big battle that was in, what in Armenia? But is that is that you're, like, around in the Turkey area? World War 2. Yeah. During World War 2. Oh, that was Africa, wasn't it? No. No. No. No. It was it was in the Turkey over in the Middle East kind of area, and it was one of the most, they have determined that there were more pieces of lead flying through the air at this one particular time than ever before in in, or since. There was so much gunfire going on. There was that the air was actually just thick with with bullets. And it's actually you know, you've seen the Facebook post where they show the picture of the bullet that's been hit by a bullet?
[00:33:33] Rich Chelson:
I think, yeah, I think I've seen that. That came from that area.
[00:33:37] Bryan Goodwin:
Okay. And I don't think it was, I don't think it's Armenia, but, you know, it's kinda in that I'm wanting to say it's over in that area, like, Turkey, Hungary, that area. And, but, yeah, they they have a section on there where you actually are playing as a, actually, I think you end up playing as a oh, every time I keep talking, I'm thinking, no. No. That's World War 1. That that's battlefield 1.
[00:34:09] Rich Chelson:
No. They're, I I looked it up and and and the actual battle, they did fight over there. I mean, we didn't. The US didn't. It was Britain. Yep. But now Britain, Australia French.
[00:34:23] Bryan Goodwin:
Because you start out as in the game in the scene that I'm thinking of, you're in a you're in a, an Australia.
[00:34:29] Rich Chelson:
Okay. Got it. Yeah. Yeah. I'm not sure, but but, yeah, they they did fight over there to, because, Great Britain was trying to keep the path to India open. Right. Where did I see that? To India and somewhere else. Because it was, I guess, a trade route for Britain.
[00:34:57] Duuude-Ron :
Mhmm.
[00:34:58] Rich Chelson:
So, yeah, I mean, I mean,
[00:35:01] Bryan Goodwin:
we as Americans didn't fight, I don't think. Yeah. Yeah. We we didn't give a crap. We're just we we were busy trying to make sure we got we kept the the main part of Europe, as as cleaned out as possible. Yeah. So
[00:35:14] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. We were yeah. We yeah, we were more worried about the Germans.
[00:35:18] Bryan Goodwin:
We were more yeah. The Germans and the, and and, and the Pacific. So we were Yeah. We were split the 2 and still kicking ass. So yep. Oh my god. So but oh, another game is sometime down the way that, you'll wanna play is, is the God of War 2018 and, Ragnarok? You know Or 2016.
[00:35:49] Rich Chelson:
I tried to play one of those. I can't remember which one. I probably still have it in my library. And for some reason I just did not like it. I'm actually takes a little getting used to, with because you're actually using all all 4 buttons.
[00:36:04] Bryan Goodwin:
Dude, this is me. Do you think I can do this all at once? If you if you could play if you play Cyberpunk, you can you can do you can do this all at once. So
[00:36:14] Rich Chelson:
Dude, I've I've I freaking have a rifle. I just shoot them in the head. I I use I use 2 buttons, l 2 and r 2.
[00:36:25] Bryan Goodwin:
That's it. Well, I'll just wait until I get you to get or get you around to play on Bloodborne. Get you into some of the from software games.
[00:36:34] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. I haven't tried those yet.
[00:36:38] Bryan Goodwin:
I think it's, what was it? I think it's demon souls. The tagline is you will die. Okay. You and it you did. Based around it. Just yeah. And it it it's such a Bloodborne well, most Demon Soul games are just so kinda just throw you in the middle, and you have to figure it out as you go because as you're fight you you you arrive at a a particular place, and you have to sit there. You gotta fight through it, through areas till you find a a, particular little, I'm gonna call it the landmark, I think, in, demon souls and and dark souls. It's a campfire.
Blood borne. It's a lantern. And these are kinda your little save areas. You touch those and you're able to you're able to go there. But to,
[00:37:40] Rich Chelson:
You see, this is why this is why I like games like, Diablo and all like that because I know who the enemy is. I know I can walk right up and just shoot the sons of bitches and then run like hell.
[00:37:53] Bryan Goodwin:
Nope. Can't do that on Bloodborne. They well, you do have a gun, but, you have to be very good. Well, it no. It's not very good, but what it actually allows you you actually utilize your gun as a means of parrying the enemy before they attack.
[00:38:11] Rich Chelson:
What? I'm I'm I'm I'm gonna hold the gun and and block their blow. Oh, no. It's a pistol. It's a pistol. So you don't need to Okay. But but So I'm I'm gonna use it to block their blow.
[00:38:23] Bryan Goodwin:
It's just yeah. Yeah. And you do a lot of damage when you actually successfully parry. But, yeah. Really? Like, you start out in an area and your you actually are collecting things called, blood echoes. And this is the the echoes are essentially, essentially the, the the money for this, for this this, town. And it's all You're just in a town. There's a little bit of outside beyond the city skirt, outskirts stuff, but it just and and you don't have to worry about, hey. Am I messing with somebody who's good or bad? No. Everybody's out in this town is out to kill you. So just know that. Alright? Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. So you're you're out in this area and yeah. And so anybody you see, you're gonna kill them.
And from there, these people, you start it starts evolving into monsters, and these people start becoming essentially just it it it goes downhill it goes downhill fast. Now granted there is a multiplayer option where I could actually hop in and help you play. Mhmm. But you actually have to get far enough on your own Mhmm. Be able to do it because you have to actually have to go off and buy this little thing called a resonance bell. And when you have the res when you ring the resonance bell, it actually, it actually opens up the channel for me to come in and, actually would be able to go over and help you. But it's it is. It's at first, it your your weapon wear out.
It's a complex game, but it's a fun game. It's just the whole lore of it. You're, like, going holy shit, man. What the hell is this? Because That'll when you die, you lose your echoes.
[00:40:04] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Okay. Well, you say that that somewhat sounds like the division 2. A bit. Yeah. When you're when you're playing that game, if, you get, like, flooded with with the enemy or or you get hurt, you can put out, even though you're playing by yourself, you're still playing in, in an open world. And Uh-huh. Yeah. You can put out a call for help and someone can Come along and pick your butt up. Yeah. And save you because, I remember this was oh, God. Shit. What shit? When I still living up north, that I was playing in, I had hit the button to call for help. Don't know why. And this dude showed up, helped me out and then stayed with me. And, basically, we didn't say
[00:40:54] Bryan Goodwin:
3 words. Ten words. Yeah.
[00:40:56] Rich Chelson:
And and and and he showed me where things were at, and then we'd go attack other places and he'd take one position. I'd take the other position. We'd wipe them out. We'd go I mean, it was actually pretty cool. We played for about 3 hours, and I was just like, thanks, man. It was like, no problem. That was it. That was the only word spoke. And I mean, I was like, alright. That's pretty cool. So Oh, no. It and division
[00:41:22] Bryan Goodwin:
I used to play division 1, and that was, yeah, that was fun. The you you had the the main single player area, but then you could go into no man's or whatever the no man's land or whatever it was called. If you wanted to get the good stuff Mhmm. You know, the good weapons, you could go in there. And that was, yeah. Yeah. That was a that was a good lesson in humility there. You'd go think think you're gonna go in there and you were all jacked up. You were level 50 and you had all badass guns and you'd go in there and pop. You'd be dead. Yeah. Goddamn it. On one side. On one side. You're like, where the hell did he come from?
[00:42:02] Rich Chelson:
But yeah. No. It's but, nah, cyberpunk's fun. I love the graphics on it. Oh, beautiful, beautiful graphics. I agree. Yeah. Very, very beautiful graphics. So and that's and I think I think I'm on, what, cable, Internet, and it's still and it still runs. You know, it still runs PS 5 good.
[00:42:25] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, you actually won't need to be online to, like, because it that's a that's a straight up single player game.
[00:42:33] Rich Chelson:
Right. But yeah. But still, it's it's the, worlds and everything like that. No. It's all Oh, it's all it's all freaking downloaded on the PS 5 already. Yeah. It's all it's all on your
[00:42:48] Bryan Goodwin:
so Okay. But but still, it's yeah. It incredible game. Yeah. It is. And, it is. Yeah. You'll start getting, some of the, iconic weapons. That'll make it even punter. So what was that, Ron?
[00:43:03] Duuude-Ron :
That's why I like donkey, asteroids, madman.
[00:43:09] Rich Chelson:
Hey. Hey. Centipede. Oh, Centipede. That was always fun. That was challenging for me.
[00:43:17] Duuude-Ron :
Tempest was my my game. That's the one I liked to play the most. What what was the one that I can never remember the name of it. You looked it up and it's it's Jairus. You do all
[00:43:29] Bryan Goodwin:
Jairus. Yeah. It took you all the, dude. Dude, you asked that every time. Every time we bring up a retro game. I know. I used to play all that.
[00:43:39] Rich Chelson:
Well, that's that's that's hilarious.
[00:43:41] Duuude-Ron :
Go ahead, dude. Day, I'll one day, I'll remember it, but today is not gonna be that day.
[00:43:48] Bryan Goodwin:
And if anybody out there has a has a cabinet game of gyrus and is wanting to get rid of it or wanna donate it to a to an old dude who just all about that game. Hit one of us up. You can get me [email protected]. Love to be able to talk to you about that and see if we can find a way of getting it shipped on over to over to Ron so he could relive his childhood for for years years years.
[00:44:22] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. I like Tempest. Yeah. Did like that one too.
[00:44:26] Rich Chelson:
Asteroids. Defender? Asteroids was oh god. I loved Asteroids. That was fun.
[00:44:32] Bryan Goodwin:
Defender, Joust.
[00:44:34] Rich Chelson:
And see, Joust, I I tried Joust a couple of times and I I
[00:44:38] Bryan Goodwin:
I really didn't care about it. What shoes couldn't buy the fact that you had flying archers?
[00:44:42] Rich Chelson:
Well, yeah, that too. That was that was that was a mind fuck right there. Okay? You you know, you know, especially when I was younger, a flying ostrich? Oh, hell no.
[00:44:56] Bryan Goodwin:
I mean, but Yeah. There's so many freak games that or blast. I mean, all but BurgerTime. I remember watching that, television show, I think it was called game time, where the Yeah. Kids would all get together, and they would play video games for competition.
[00:45:14] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Yeah. So so what? You're saying that's the early days of Twitch?
[00:45:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Before Twitch? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it sounds like it. Yeah. And I can't remember who the, host was because the person that keeps coming to my head is the guy who do used to do Double Dare on Nickelodeon. But I don't I don't think that was him. Think it was, I think it was another guy, but, yeah, there was a, there was a guy who, there was a host, and they would have, I think, there would be, like, a a red team and a blue team, and and each one would take turns going and playing a playing a video game. Maybe the game at the moment might be Hubert or and they had to get a certain, get, see who got the highest score within, like, a minute and a half and and stuff like that. So it was just using the game to, as the challenge, you never who got to the highest level. It was always, you know, how much how much could you score within a certain amount of time is what I remember it being. But it was it was hell, I remember watching it before I went to church.
Because I think he was always out in the, like, like, 7 o'clock or 6:30 to 7 o'clock in on Sunday morning. So
[00:46:30] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. I I was probably driving truck at that time. So
[00:46:36] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. I I vaguely remember that, but I do remember, you know, they have to play the game and then it would go into something else. And yeah. Yep. Yep.
[00:46:48] Bryan Goodwin:
So so alright. We got a few topics we could cover. We got, would you give up your biometrics for, for some crypto? The brutality of a thought, problem with vegetable oil, or white boy summer?
[00:47:16] Rich Chelson:
It don't matter to me. All all I know is that, no, I would not give out my biometrics for crypto. Okay. We're talking about biometrics. And and and I like crypto, but I need to know I mean and, you know, I you know, honestly, if you stop and think about it. Okay? Believe it or not, a lot of, well, our phones already have our biometrics.
[00:47:42] Bryan Goodwin:
Very much so.
[00:47:44] Rich Chelson:
Our, our fingerprints, our face, because my phone, I can unlock it with my face and my fingerprint.
[00:47:52] Bryan Goodwin:
Right.
[00:47:55] Rich Chelson:
Now I'm told by go.
[00:48:02] Bryan Goodwin:
Excuse me. Now I'm told Yeah. Tuberculosis will kick your ass, won't it? Right. Yeah. It will.
[00:48:10] Rich Chelson:
But but not. And and you see, I am told by Google that Google doesn't have that information. All this information is on my phone. Now I don't know how much of that I believe. Right? But but you see, if you think about it, other places that have cameras, like traffic cams going into stores has cameras. Right. They have your face recorded, but it's still Oh, yeah. And so, I mean, I mean, I don't know why I have such a problem with that. It's just, I guess, because I I still think I'm in a big group, so it's not just, you know, they don't have they can pick me out if they look for me. It's it's not that they have my picture and my details right there beside me. Yeah.
You know what I mean? Mhmm. I mean, it sounds confusing. I know. But, I mean, it's it's straight in my head.
[00:49:13] Bryan Goodwin:
Right. Alright. Well, kinda wanna y'all also get, Ron's idea, idea, but but just kind of a background real quick. There is a apparently, right now, there's a shortage of them. But right now, there is a device called the orb, which if you're a fan of phantasm, this thing looks a lot like those flying silver balls that go around killing people in in the movie, But it's slightly bigger. It's, it it's actually quite a bit bigger. But anyhow, this this port And they don't kill you. And it yeah. Yeah. It doesn't have any razor blades that shoot out and spear you in the head, drill a hole in your head, and it's blurs spew your blood all over the place. It is a it is meant to collect your biometrics, like your retina scan, your thumbprint, your tongue print, is another biometric scan that's, that's out there.
Yeah. Yeah. You could actually use a and I don't think the Orb collection, your tongue print, but that is a a a biometrics that
[00:50:17] Rich Chelson:
is is available. You can actually utilize you could your each person's thumbprint is as unique as your thumbprint. Well, no. I now I get that. But but think about it. When you're trying to walk into a a a locked office or something and you have to use your tongue
[00:50:34] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, that'd be awesome. What'd you get? Oh, no. That would, yeah. Oh, there'd be so much sexual harassment going on there. Right. Yeah. You know, my my what I'm gonna imagine this is is is is as I lick it. Yeah. This is Helen. Oh, hi, Helen. Damn it. I'm going to HR, ain't Alright. Fine.
[00:50:58] Rich Chelson:
Dude, what was you gonna say?
[00:51:00] Duuude-Ron :
You know, just all the biometric stuff is just more of a way for our government to have control over the sheeple. Yep. And get, you know, that 0.1 percenter group that has all the money wants to be in control of everybody else.
[00:51:28] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. And that's it's a way to and they they gather they gather all that all that information with us with a nice little bribe.
[00:51:36] Rich Chelson:
Oh, yeah. Definitely. Of course. Because no one would give it up. So what's the brat?
[00:51:43] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. It's crypto. It's a special and I I don't think it's any or I don't think it's the it's a mainstream coin either. I don't think it's like Bitcoin or Litecoin or Ethereum. It's I I think they offer a it world world. So it's a shit coin. So
[00:52:00] Rich Chelson:
Well well, I as as as I was reading the article, it said it's world coin based on ether.
[00:52:07] Bryan Goodwin:
And, Yeah. Which which a lot of, a lot of crypto coins these days are based on the Ethereum blockchain. So Right. Right. So,
[00:52:16] Rich Chelson:
but and, I mean, I don't know of any, exchanges that that, handle.
[00:52:24] Bryan Goodwin:
Royalties.
[00:52:25] Rich Chelson:
No. I mean You know? I mean, I could look on on, you know, the couple I know, but, you know, I I I hate to say it, but I'm not gonna do it.
[00:52:36] Bryan Goodwin:
No. I wouldn't either. And I mean and it's it's they're kinda, they're doing it kinda the same way, and I they'll end up whenever if, if people aren't paying attention enough and the government successfully incorporates, the USDC, or not USDC, the CBDC. That's what it is.
[00:53:02] Rich Chelson:
CBDC?
[00:53:03] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. The central bank, digital currency. That is the the currency that, the Federal Reserve is a it's a programmable, coin. So, basically, what what they can do is they can if, the government can go through and see that, oh, Rich. I see you've eaten 2 and a half pounds of of red meat this week alone. You're gonna have to walk to go anywhere because you can't afford you can't be buying you can't be driving your car. I mean, because they'll have the car the that's one of the reasons why they wanna push electric cars so much. It's not just for for, for for greeny weeny, you know, snootyism.
It's it's also because the same thing as what happens with OnStar. They they perfected the OnStar system. So now, oh, hey. Hey. There's my car. Disengaged. All of a sudden, you kill the engine remotely. It's all dead. That won't be able to do anything. You're stranded out in the middle of anywhere. So, to be able to buy anything, you wouldn't be able to buy stuff if, if your your social credit score or also known as an ESG, score gets too low. You know? You didn't say the right stuff. You you said something that hurt, hurt your neighbor's feelings. And and they, they are, they feels really oppressed because because you you did say hi to them in the right way and use their pronouns properly.
Boom. Voila. Guess what? You ain't you're you're you don't get to go off and, and watch television now for, for a couple days because because uncle Sam has decided to ground you. It's my god. Yeah. No. And this the the and it's all programmable, so, you know, you they could actually go, you know what? You can't use this money to buy cigarettes. Cigarettes are bad for you. Oh, they've been saying that for Oh, yeah. But they but they but now you wouldn't be able to just whip out a, a greenback, lay it down, you know, or or Well buy or or however many greenbacks it takes to buy a pack of cigarettes, which is about, what, 15 almost?
[00:55:23] Rich Chelson:
In some places, yeah. It is.
[00:55:26] Bryan Goodwin:
Some places,
[00:55:28] Rich Chelson:
Some places, 10.
[00:55:30] Bryan Goodwin:
Is this 10? Yeah. I'm not yeah. Goddamn it. I'm I am glad I quit smoking. There's times I still wish I did, but I'm glad I quit. I'm very glad I quit. Well, I'm very glad you quit too. I'm I'm still working on it.
[00:55:44] Duuude-Ron :
Well, I it's all it's all based on your Working on it until I'm dead. I'll be working on it until I'm dead. And then I will smoke one last time because I'm getting cremated. So I'll be smoking until I'm dead, plus 1.
[00:56:00] Bryan Goodwin:
Plus 1. You'll be you'll be okay.
[00:56:03] Duuude-Ron :
There you go. See, and just you gotta remember this. Quitters never win, and winners never quit. So
[00:56:13] Bryan Goodwin:
I'll leave that I'll leave that up to you. Well, there's also there's also that adage that, you know, ignorance is bliss, and patience is a virtue. So you can lead a pretty damn good life if you're stupid and don't mind waiting around.
[00:56:30] Rich Chelson:
You got a point. So I mean, this You got a point.
[00:56:36] Bryan Goodwin:
So but but, yeah, the CBDC, and and the way that they're, they're kinda proposing it is the same way that they would they they took care of when they when they went off of the,
[00:56:53] Rich Chelson:
Gold standard?
[00:56:54] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Not off the go well, they went off gold standard in the seventies, but during World War 2 when they outlawed gold Mhmm. They actually, to sell it back, they actually gave you more than what it was worth. To encourage people, it's like, heck yeah, man. If I can get, you know, if I got $10 worth of gold and I can get $15 for it, bye, George, I'm gonna do that. Right. Right. Hold on, though. Okay. Hang on a second here.
[00:57:23] Rich Chelson:
You said this, this new coin is the CBDC.
[00:57:27] Bryan Goodwin:
Right? Central bank digital currency.
[00:57:30] Rich Chelson:
Central bank digital currency.
[00:57:32] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. Now
[00:57:33] Rich Chelson:
think about that for a second. Do you know what they're they're fixing to do?
[00:57:38] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. Yeah. They're fixing to take over all the banks, the federal government.
[00:57:43] Rich Chelson:
And yeah. And so that'll make the double have all these other banks thinking for themselves, you need to be doing what big brother says. Well, right. No. I know. But but you see, that's the thing. This is this is what they've been trying to do for the last 40, 50, a 100 years. You know? Couple 100 years or whatever. I mean, this this is nothing new, but but they're just now getting to the point to where they're gonna wind up taking over the global currency.
[00:58:13] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. And that's what World Economic Forum was, which doesn't sound evil at all.
[00:58:19] Rich Chelson:
You know? No. No. No. Not at all. That's that's a, you know, next door neighbor name. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know?
[00:58:26] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, close. You know, not anything that they do. And, I mean, you've got, old BlackRock dude who, the CEO of BlackRock. Crap. He's got a he's got a name that's just, Fink. Fink is his last name. Fink. Yeah. Yeah. Like yeah. He's like like a rat Fink. I think his name's, starts with an r, something r Fink. But, no, it's not rat, but it Larry. Should be rat. Larry Fink. Is it Larry? I sing it. It starts with r. There's r's in there's 2 r's in there, so I was distantly close. Distantly close. However Distantly close. There there is a there is a I like I like Brad Fink. Yeah. But, yeah, Larry Fink.
Just close.
[00:59:25] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. Say Larry Fink or Lawrence D Fink is founder chairman and chief executive officer of BlackRock.
[00:59:35] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, well, he almost sounded diabolical until you start throwing Lawrence around. Because you could hear you could hear his mom holler down this block.
[00:59:49] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. That that, the, p 4 just cut that out. Just I bet it did. Yeah. He was
[00:59:58] Bryan Goodwin:
he was way too noise. Making no noise whatsoever.
[01:00:02] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. It was like, yo, dude, you just clipped so hard that it's like, yep. Nope. Silence. Fuck you. We're done.
[01:00:10] Bryan Goodwin:
So but anyhow, might write write that, distantly closed down as a, as a title option. So Okay. So but yeah. I mean and and it's just it's I know a lot of those who happen to be listening. Yeah. Okay. These are a lot of it is somewhat conspiracy theory that's based based in a lot of interesting facts that happen to be happening around,
[01:00:40] Rich Chelson:
around the world right now. Well, okay. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Why is every everyone so quick to say, oh, it's a conspiracy theory?
[01:00:49] Bryan Goodwin:
Because then it's easy to discredit.
[01:00:52] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. But but the thing is, though, I mean, I mean, if it's in if it's in, you know, media, and well, it won't be in the media in the US because we know we know the,
[01:01:05] Bryan Goodwin:
television media. Well, depends on which which media you're listening to. If you're listening to talk radio yeah. There's a couple of stations that are, or a couple programs talk about it. But Right. But but I'm talking,
[01:01:17] Rich Chelson:
you know, most of them, you know, not a lot of people listen to talk radio anymore.
[01:01:23] Bryan Goodwin:
No. No. Most most of the, the the m five m is not, not gonna report on it because, you know, they're hoping to hoping to to not be, to be, be lumped in with the riffraff when,
[01:01:39] Rich Chelson:
when that change comes along. So Right. Well, well, and see and see, that's the thing. The, the, the, mainstream media wants wants to try and, take everyone's attention away from the problems in in the actual government. Right. That's why, just to let everybody know, a lot of this stuff that we're talking about comes from news outlets in the UK. Because, what, the cryptocurrency one was, the daily mail. Right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So it because what what what we've learned over the years is that in order to find out what's going on in America, you have to go to other countries because they will report what's going on in America
[01:02:30] Bryan Goodwin:
and over there too. But Yeah. You know? Well, they they love to to to snitch on on on America, But at the same time, I mean, they they didn't turn around and and do what our media does To their on their system. People. Yeah. Yeah. So it's, you know, it's like, oh, look at that. Look at that big old big old, splinter in, in the US' eye while they've got a a whole plank in there. So, you know, that's it's, there is not a a media company. And when I say media, I'm talking about traditional media. Talking about radio, ABC, NBC, CBS, even, PMS, NBC, as Rush, god bless his soul, used to call it.
Mhmm. You know, there's none of those, the mainstream even Fox these days. Yeah. Fox. They're still kind of okay. But I mean, they've they've they've slipped ever since, their main their main dude died, and and got taken over. They're they're well, I mean, hell, you don't need I noticed whenever Trump came along, that all of a sudden, the Drudge Report was nowhere near as, as I mean, Drudge Report was was just as bad as, as MSNBC about about trashing, trash Trump. Really? Really? Because Oh, god. Yeah. Yeah. Drugs. Drugs, for whatever reason, he and I think he sold I actually think he literally sold out. I think he sold sold the drug report to a to a, to a a a a news organization and and because it's yeah. You don't hear anybody talk about the drug report anymore.
Oh, I know. I know it. And that happened quick. I mean, 2016 to about 2017, no one's like, drugs report ain't worth crap anymore, and and drop them like a hot potato.
[01:04:38] Rich Chelson:
Let's see.
[01:04:43] Bryan Goodwin:
Yes, folks. Rich is our fact checker because I am as you if you are on the live stream, you can actually see that I am inside of a truck. Because like I said, I drive a truck professionally. And, and so I actually have got my whole setup going very mobile. I'm talk I'm streaming through my phone. All the information comes through there, and I've got a microphone that, goes to a little, p 4, a Zoom P4. And because this is an iPhone 15, it's got the USB c, so I can USB c into it. And, and a it goes into, up in the Zoom servers, which bounce around and it goes to the Twitch servers. So hey. Yeah. We're we're still live, and it's great, and it's wonderful.
So but I it doesn't make very good, podcast or video casting, sense to have me with my bifocals trying to read something on the phone while vertical video in it. So it looks real bad. So, yeah, we have Rich, our our our fact checker, who has actually got the, the the the desktop. So Yeah. So So what'd you find out?
[01:05:58] Rich Chelson:
Actually, it is it is still ran by it it was founded by Matt Drudge, of course. Yep. And, he's got Charles Hurt and Daniel Halper, and it's still going.
[01:06:12] Bryan Goodwin:
Oh, yeah. No. I know. I figured it's still going. So because I figured everyone would be celebrating the moment, Drudge Report shut its doors.
[01:06:19] Rich Chelson:
But it's it's not madrudge no more. Yeah. No. I'm I'm not seeing I'm not seeing anywhere where, they sold out. Hang on a second. Let me check.
[01:06:33] Bryan Goodwin:
As I say, my search for when Matt Judge sold. Margaret Otto.
[01:06:38] Rich Chelson:
Matt Judge sold the judge report to Margaret Otto in 2018. Miss Otto hang on. Listen. Listen. In fact, hang on. Let me bring this up so I can read this. He sold the site to the Otto family, who were, I guess, early Google employees, and the conditions of the sale were were to be kept private. Yeah. Say hang on. Where where was that at? Miss Otto is a political leftist, and she changed the political orientation of the judge report after she bought it. So in 2018 and at 2018, it swung to the left.
[01:07:31] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. It all of a sudden And even before but even before then, Matt, for whatever reason, Matt Drudge didn't like Trump either. Right. And so so he wasn't very sympathetic to whatever Trump was doing and was, during the election and all that, but then,
[01:07:52] Rich Chelson:
but but hold on. Hold on. If if you look if you look before that, I mean, I mean, the judge report, he covered, the, the, Monica
[01:08:05] Bryan Goodwin:
Lewinsky scandal. Yeah. That's that was his big break was was the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Yeah. That was. And, but but you see over that
[01:08:14] Rich Chelson:
over time there, you know, I mean, it didn't seem he was left or right, but, I mean, it seemed like he was mostly right because, you know, of what was coming out. But yeah. No. And I he was on talk radio too. Yeah.
[01:08:31] Bryan Goodwin:
He had his own talk radio show there for a little while. But so, yeah, he sold out to
[01:08:37] Rich Chelson:
leftist, to A bunch of leftists. Liberals in,
[01:08:42] Bryan Goodwin:
yeah, the room. And they're probably wondering why they can't make as much money as they used to.
[01:08:48] Rich Chelson:
Well, yeah. I don't know. Because, yeah, the freaking Jodie report used to make a buttload of money.
[01:08:55] Bryan Goodwin:
I'm sure it did. And I mean, he didn't do much. He would his his his sight was so simple in its genius. Mhmm. Because it wasn't, you know, it wasn't him making stating, hey, you know, the the liberals wanna wanna destroy the, destroy the world. He would give a title a headline, you know, of whatever. And then he would link directly to their news, news, to their to their article that stated that very fact. Exactly. And that's you see, that's why that's why back in the day, I love the judge report. Oh, hell yeah. Anytime he got a got a breaking news. He used to have the, the old gift, popcorn, bingo lights going off at the top.
Yeah. I would say you do you had a if you hit there just right, you are getting breaking news. You you got the juice stuff. But see, that's that's the thing, though. And and you see, back then, though, the judge report,
[01:10:05] Rich Chelson:
he would do left and right. He didn't care. You know, if it was headlines and and, honestly, I don't know how he kept up with it,
[01:10:14] Bryan Goodwin:
You know? Because I Oh, he had a lot of folks who who helped him. He had a lot of extra hands and helped Twitter. Threw a lot of stuff his way too. So Right.
[01:10:24] Rich Chelson:
But but yeah. No. It just you know? And that's why that's why I like that site because you could find something for everybody pretty much. Oh, yeah. You know, whichever way you linked or didn't lean or, you know, squashed or hit or stood up. It didn't matter. You know? You you could find something that you wanted to read. Right. Honest honestly, since oh, god. It's probably been a good ten, almost 12 years since I really looked at the drug report. So
[01:10:56] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. It's been been since probably, actually, like I said, I think it was probably 20, 2017 that I stopped stopped looking at it.
[01:11:06] Rich Chelson:
I think I looked at it in, like, 2020 or something just just because I thought about it. You know? But and and I was looking at it and I'm like, oh, I don't like any of this shit. Okay.
[01:11:19] Bryan Goodwin:
It's a bunch of that's a bunch of bullshit right there. So Yeah. Pretty much.
[01:11:24] Rich Chelson:
Pretty much.
[01:11:26] Bryan Goodwin:
So speaking of speaking of, of bullshit and and other assorted things, kinda, one of the things we were talking about was the brutality of a thought.
[01:11:38] Rich Chelson:
A thought. And a thought. And Brutality of a thought. Now Yeah. You know, that is that is kinda weird because I have thoughts, but they are not brutal.
[01:11:48] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, but this is this is a different well, first off, it's a different type of thought. This is Okay. Okay. This is the t h o t, which is the term people use for, like, the OnlyFans girls, for the porn stars that because THOT stands for that ho over there. Now I'm sure that probably just got us knocked off Twitter or Twitch, but still, that's what it stands for. That hoe over there. H o t. That hoe over there. Okay. Yeah. Yes. We're talking about the garden hole. Yeah. Yeah. We're talking about that gardening hoe that's, because the long road hoe type of thing. That's a sexy garden hoe. I'll tell you, it is. It's a Right? My hoe. It's a dirty hoe. So
[01:12:32] Rich Chelson:
we really gonna but but now hold on. Hold on. Why you say okay. Okay. I don't get this. We are all given right. We all have rights. We can do whatever the hell we want, whenever we want. So so why is this such a big deal?
[01:12:53] Bryan Goodwin:
Because what the the us getting bumped off for using a word tap a tap a deal or No. No. This Or the thought. Thought. Oh, okay. That ho over there. The reason the That whole of the the, the whole The thing about the thought is is It's termed because you have so many women who are now well, since the since the, since the pandemic, you had a bunch of, bunch of of of powerful feminists who thought it was a really good idea. I know. I am I am powerful. I am a I am a woman. Hear me roar. I'm going to do the one thing that feminist from for years years years have complained about. I'm gonna be in porn.
Okay. Good for you. Yay. But I don't care. Because I mean, I mean, what's it? I know you don't care. No. But the thing is what's it is? That's just it though. That is if first off, if you look at that whole lot of thinking because, you know, when even when it was just the bio label. Alright? Okay. Well, and even before that, you had you had feminist throwing fits about booth babes. Do you remember booth babes? No. I don't. Okay. Booth babes at if you went to if you ever saw shows that were taking place at, like, e 3 or taking place at, all the, the big, electronic trade show, consumer c s.
Yeah. Yeah. C e s. C e s. They're in from the from around the 2000 to about 2,010 ish, maybe 2,011, 2012. Somewhere in there. All the all the conventions it would have as a means of drawing attention to a lot of the geeks and a lot of the guys that were there, they would have these hot, big boomed women Okay. Standing there. They'd be in either bikinis or in tight t shirts and shorts and stuff like that. And they would they would be helping to sell products. And the feminist at that time threw a fit going, oh my god. These women are selling their bodies for for a dollar and back or for a, you know, for money and blah blah blah blah blah blah. If they wanna hold shit, hold up. Hold up. Hold up. But we're gonna get there. We're gonna get to it. And so but they would throw all their shit bit about how these girls who are grown women, they're usually 21 to 18 or to o or older. We sell them, you know, dress it up, all sexy and showing off showing off their body, showing off their curves. And the guys ate it up because, obviously, there there's boobs and butts and and and hot long legs and hair done up just right. And all these guys will be would like it because they are out on the out on the road or whatever at these conventions. And these girls were there, and they were paying attention to the guy. So, you know, the guy's gonna go, okay. I'll buy it. And, you know, they'll buy the stuff. They sold a lot more products.
And the feminists would throw a fit because of the how the women would dress like that. They wouldn't bitch about it. I actually got into a fit a fight on LinkedIn of all things. Because a guy who had who had his wife and his, and I think his, and the other co and the other founder of the company had his wife, They were both there and they were basically in Hooters outfits. And not that they walk around with their Hooters hanging out. They were were, you know, tight t shirt and short shorts and had the hair done up and long legs and well tanned and all that. And had they were just getting raped over the coals of how dare you, take advantage of these women? Blah blah blah blah blah. They can't help the they're they're you know, you're taking advantage of these poor women. The guy's not going, dude, it's my freaking wife. She's made the suggestion.
And so she would so they throw a fit. And now, fast forward to 2020, and instead of throwing a fit about, hey, you women are selling your bodies for money. How dare you? They're going, well, this is strong independent woman. I should be able to get naked for a dollar. And it's like, okay. If you wanna get naked for a dollar, get naked for a dollar. But you're also trashing, you know, most of us men know that when you have a you have a woman who is selling her, her body for money, that's making her a prostitute. That's making her a a hoe, a literal hoe.
[01:17:52] Rich Chelson:
Okay. But whose decision is it? I mean, yes. Yes. To to to go to sign up for OnlyFans. Yeah. Hold on. Human trafficking aside. Okay. All these other women or men because I guess some men do it. There are guys on there. Okay. And there's actually not non adult artists on there too. So Okay. Fine. Either way, they consciously made the choice to do this. So so so why are these people worried, you know, trying to call them different names, trying to shame them or whatnot? Just fucking let them be.
[01:18:30] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, it and that that is, except for the and and I agree to the to a, a large point. The point is is when they start standing around complaining going, I can't find a man who will marry me. Well, that's because you're you used your body up. You're you've gone off and slept with 200 other men. And in the eighties, y'all don't understand this, but in the eighties, we were were it was driven into our head. It whoever you sleep with, you're also essentially sleeping with every other person that that person slept with. Well, it's been true since beginning of time. Oh, well, yeah. It's been true, but that's where it was really driven home. It's like, don't be, you know, if you go off Right. You dip you play dip the wick with with 13 other women, you're probably you're running a chance of catching a STD off of one of those 13 other women because one of them probably had a boyfriend somewhere down the line who didn't who slept with a 100 different women. And yes, I know we're talking men and women women and and all that. And I'm not taught, not about, you know, should men, run around on on women and and play play hide the salami with with a 100 different women.
Because, no, they shouldn't.
[01:19:45] Rich Chelson:
Right. But I agree. Again But but we're stuck. Still, again, the thing is what I'm saying is is why is this a freaking problem in this world today?
[01:19:55] Bryan Goodwin:
Who gives They are shitting around. Well, because it and it shouldn't be. If you wanna go off you wanna if you wanna be a wanna go off and and be an only fans girl, be a cam girl, and sell your sell your body and your soul to to the Internet. God bless you. Be my guest. Stop bitching about the fact that you don't have you can't find a man. Because the quality men are not gonna go after a low quality woman. Exactly. They're going to want a woman who is virtuous, who is got whose body count is preferably 0, but as maybe 1, 2, maybe 3 guys ahead of them?
[01:20:37] Rich Chelson:
Well, and and and the thing is, honestly, let me ask you this. How many guys ask a woman what that they're dating?
[01:20:44] Bryan Goodwin:
How many partners have you been with? It's a typical question these days of what's your body count. Really? Yeah.
[01:20:52] Rich Chelson:
Really?
[01:20:53] Bryan Goodwin:
Holy cow. I mean, all the girls I dated, I it it the topic usually came up of how many so how many people have you slept with? Wow. And of course, we also ran, we also knew about the rule of 3.
[01:21:08] Rich Chelson:
You know Say I never knew about the rule of 3. Okay. The rule of 3 is
[01:21:13] Bryan Goodwin:
take the number that a woman says and multiply it by 3. Okay. And that's closer to what she how many she actually had. Take however how many a man says.
[01:21:26] Rich Chelson:
Multiply it by 30? No. No.
[01:21:29] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Divide it by 3. Because it's actually for every one for every girl he's pro or every 3 girls he slept with, Zach's probably 1. Well, yeah. You're right. Because Because because women, though, they love to say they don't have any power. When it comes to sex and relationships, they have all the power. They have all the power. And I And it should be. That is the money and all the power. That's how it's, how it should be. Because if it is up to us guys and and we had the had the ability to choose the power and had all that type of power Oh my god. We wouldn't know what to do with it. I mean, come on. Look at some of the popular shock sites out there. And and you know that guys shouldn't be trusted alone with with,
[01:22:13] Rich Chelson:
with the the devious perverted thoughts they have. Exactly. No. So, I mean, come on. I know. Apparently, apparently I've been, I've been out of the game long enough that, yeah, I, I, because
[01:22:26] Bryan Goodwin:
hey, anyone I've ever dated, no one ever asked me what my body count was. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you you've been out of action long enough. Jerry's done grown back. So well, you're okay.
[01:22:37] Rich Chelson:
Right. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing, though. Oh, you know, it depends.
[01:22:42] Bryan Goodwin:
So but anyhow, so back back to the why is the thought being called a thought so brutal? Yeah. Why?
[01:22:54] Rich Chelson:
I I don't I don't understand
[01:22:56] Bryan Goodwin:
it. One, it is essentially labeling out this woman has had a lot of checks. Or let's check because this woman's had a lot of checks. Well, some of them had. Well But and Some It depends on how you say it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No judgment. No judgment. No. No. Not at all. Except we all judge, so so there's that. But, so this woman's had a high body count. Alright? So one, she has taken her taken her energy and she has now become just a she's not even actually a what I would call what I would call I wanna say ethereal, but that's not the right word. Anyhow, she is, she is basically, purposely by by becoming a thought has become a become just a thought.
She is thou a a a a thing that men masturbate to. She is a nothing more than a actual fantasy. She her name is I am a thought. She is not a she doesn't have any actual substance. Now she's physically there. Yes. But there's no substance to her because she has decided, you know what? I'm just gonna be a I'm gonna be product for masturbatory material. I am gonna be a product for the simps out there and the freaking simps. Goddamn it, man. Guys, get out there. If you're a simp, you're sitting there paying for some of this stuff. Stop it.
Please go out and go be you're gonna feel stupid the first 20 times you do it, and you're still gonna feel stupid the second 20 times you do it. But go talk to a real girl and find out what happens when you don't flog the dolphin every other day. Find out what your my mental, your mental cohesion and mental thought pattern is when you actually don't beat off, you know, burping the gherkin, you know, every 3rd every 3rd hour because you actually become more aware of, of what women are are doing around you. And it's sad because you have millennials.
And, yeah, millennials are now entering into the 40 year old, department, which doesn't make them old, but you also have gen the Zoomers running around, gen z. And they're being advertised, you know, ED pills. They're getting Viagra and Cialis sent to them because there's this thing called porn induced erectile dysfunction. Oh, wow. They can't get a boner unless they're looking at a looking at porn. And I mean, come on. The best porn out there is a real woman is standing in front of you naked, ready to go. Yep.
No. I I guarantee you that. Because guess what? You don't have to touch yourself. It gets touched all as part of the game, and it's even better than you would think, man. Right. And simps, I mean, that's that's just it. The I I feel sorry for y'all because y'all are just y'all have decided that it's better to to sit in the house and to just fantasize about a thought. A Right. Just a figment of your imagination. And that's even if she is dressing up, that girl, whoever she is, is just, at that moment, just ones and zeros on the Internet. She is not there physically.
And so she is just a thought in your head. And so they you're brute she's brutalizing herself because she's making herself just ones and zeros.
[01:26:49] Rich Chelson:
But see the thing is, again, that's her choice.
[01:26:52] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, it no. I agree. That is her choice. So But at the same time, simps, damn it. The guys, that's y'all's choice too, but y'all are perpetuating the your own damn damn fall.
[01:27:04] Rich Chelson:
Mate, Call me naive or whatever, but but, I mean, stuff like this has been going on, you know, like I said earlier, since beginning of time. Okay. So so why is it now such a big problem?
[01:27:20] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, we're seeing the results of what happens when you go free porn. We're seeing the results that. Okay. Okay. Birth rate is falling down. And it's not just in the US. Look at Japan where they have they have manga and and hentai and and all this where there's I mean, their television shows are just right there. I mean, granted, they don't show actual they're not I don't think, I think it's in Japan. They're not allowed to show actual genitalia.
[01:27:50] Rich Chelson:
No. They can't. Not in Japan. So England, they can. Oh, yeah. In England, you know, you know, walk English. You know? Hey. Oh, you know? But but still but but okay. You see? Okay. I understand that. But, again, how is that affecting your personal life?
[01:28:09] Bryan Goodwin:
Not personal life, but at the same time, we're not the birth rate is fallen.
[01:28:14] Rich Chelson:
Well, right. This what I'm saying. But but you see, can you do anything about the birth rate that's fallen?
[01:28:22] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. I'm doing what I can right now to make sure that all the, that, guys stop stop playing with I love getting the love. Yeah. Stop choking the chicken. You know? Spanking the monkey. You know? Every other your euphemism you could think of, I still love but by flogging the dolphin is still my favorite one of all. Just That was the It's always been my That was good, dude. Honestly, the first time I heard that, that was that was actually pretty fucking good. So I was I was I was enjoying that one immensely.
[01:28:52] Rich Chelson:
So never flogging the dolphin. I don't think I would call my thing a dolphin, but alright. You know? So But but no. Yeah. See, that's that's the thing. Now I I mean, I understand what you're saying, and I'm not trying to make light of it. I mean I know you're not. This is my decision. Trying to come up with a better way of being able to explain it so that
[01:29:13] Bryan Goodwin:
you know? Because as to to counter your your incredible thoughts and and and the counteractions. Right. Exactly. I don't care, but yet the results of it, I do care.
[01:29:26] Rich Chelson:
But, okay. And, and maybe this isn't where I'm, I'm, I'm understanding. Okay. I mean, because I'm, I look at things. I look at everything. Does it affect me in the way I live? No. I don't give 2 shits about it. You know? But Right. But they're they're on the same hand, though. I do care overall about people. It's kind of an oxymoron, isn't
[01:29:54] Bryan Goodwin:
it? That you don't care about them, but you you you give a shit about or you don't give a shit about it, but you care. So yeah. Well, yeah. I mean I mean, if it didn't,
[01:30:02] Rich Chelson:
great. Come on now. I mean, I I know I'm I'm I'm, like, off in the head or something. I don't know. It just but but, you know, the way I see it, especially during the pan pandemic, these women chose to go to OnlyFans. And and, again, you and I've had this discussion and with dude, we've, we've had this discussion as well. During, during the pandemic, everybody basically let the government tell them exactly what to do, and you just Right. Okay.
[01:30:38] Bryan Goodwin:
You just went. Oh, did I just go go funny? Yeah. You're both. I was checking I was checking chats to see if there are anything happening. So, yeah. Everything all of a sudden shift. I was like, oh, crap. Crap. Turn it back. Turn it back. But,
[01:30:50] Rich Chelson:
but, but see, that's the thing, you know, and and if everyone in America would have stood up and said kiss my ass, like like, you know, some of us did, then Yeah. We probably wouldn't be having this discussion because OnlyFans probably would not have taken off as well. But then again, it might have too.
[01:31:13] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, it was it was taken off, but once the once the pandemic hit and all of a sudden you had all these women who were stuck at home, and they were like, hey. Wait a minute. I can I can actually sell my body on the Internet and make money, and some do? Some made a lot of money. Mhmm. The majority of them maybe had 2 2 followers. It was, I mean, it was your typical social media type of hype where it's like, oh, yeah. I'm I'm gonna be on OnlyFans. I'm gonna have a lot I'm gonna have 10,000 followers. Sorry, girl, but you are not that damn pretty. Well well, that's like You were not that not as hot as you thought you were. You've made $20.
[01:31:59] Rich Chelson:
Good job. Yeah. In in 2 years. You know? Well, that's like, look at look at these guys going on YouTube, trying to make videos and, you know, be like these big video YouTube channels. Sorry, hoss. You ain't gonna do it. It's, it's not gonna work. Not in a timeframe that you're looking at. I'm not saying it can't work. It can, but it's gonna take a long time to get there. You know, unless you have something that just goes viral and you explode overnight, which we hope 2 grumpy vets will do. So, hey, check us out. Hey, K. Follow us.

[01:33:49] Rich Chelson:
Do what?
[01:33:50] Duuude-Ron :
Took a left at Albuquerque. Took a left?
[01:33:57] Bryan Goodwin:
So so what are your what are your thoughts on on what we've been talking about? You know
[01:34:03] Duuude-Ron :
Sorry about that. I had a cookie.
[01:34:08] Bryan Goodwin:
We made him hungry.
[01:34:10] Duuude-Ron :
Yeah. Made me hungry. You know, right now, I just I don't have any thoughts on it. I know I sound like the, party pooper of group. I just don't have any
[01:34:23] Rich Chelson:
Dude, you're just loving the cookie, man.
[01:34:26] Duuude-Ron :
That's right.
[01:34:27] Bryan Goodwin:
See what we're talking about. All of a sudden, you give a guy a cookie and he has no thoughts. That's
[01:34:33] Duuude-Ron :
right.
[01:34:34] Rich Chelson:
Ladies, if you want your guy to shut up, give him a cookie. Give him a cookie. You're good.
[01:34:40] Bryan Goodwin:
Give him a sandwich and he'll he's good. But I mean, it and but the one of the big things that I that I've gotten that I've noticed especially here recently, and maybe it's just because I'm I'm getting older and I've I've stopped being the the dirty old man. And because I'm I'm looking at life in a completely different manner. But I mean, I used to there was quite a few girls that I watched. And when I say girls, I mean, they're in their mid twenties on up. Mhmm. But they they were a lot of them started out was following them and follow them on Instagram, follow them on on Twitter and stuff. And whenever the pandemic hit and you could see them, it was almost like a a some type of weird virus that was coming along where I was all of a sudden, they were starting to they used to dress nicely. They were having, yeah, they were having fun and they had great content. And it was just funny because couple of them were really working hard trying one of them in particular, her her, her name was or still is. I I think she's still running around. I hadn't paid attention to her in a couple years now.
But, was Boba. And she was she was trying so hard to be an actual model. And she actually, that she did a video where she actually got to do a big, you know, big hot shot photo shoot with a bunch of the models for a for a a deal. And she said that she when she did it, she was so awkward at it because that was her first time.
[01:36:22] Rich Chelson:
Mhmm.
[01:36:22] Bryan Goodwin:
That she honestly didn't wanna do it do modeling anymore, which was like, no. You that's what you you had a bad time. You you did weren't taught, you know, how how they actually wanna hold a glass and stuff. Yeah. It was your first time. You're gonna screw it up. You're going to make a mess up of it. Right. But to run from it right then, that makes a that turns that that that mistake that failure into a real failure. Mhmm. And it and it, it did. It hurt me just to think, oh, she gave up her on her dream because it didn't work out the way she wanted.
Well, I'm saying I guess I don't know if she just realized that the girls who are who are actual professional models are as snooty as they are or what. But she then she gave up on that. And so she still did her little content creation. She would do would go on little little adventures and things like that and go out amongst town and talk to the to the, to the camera and things like that, and it was great. And then, 2020 came along and all of a sudden, she started showing up in a little bit less clothing. A little bit less clothing. A little bit less clothing. And eventually, you started meant see her mentioning OnlyFans. And it was just like, oh, no. And that that caused me caused me to lose a lot of of actual respect for her. Right. Because she did go down that path. She didn't wanna be a be a, be a model anymore, but yet she became a model. And the one thing if you look in her eyes, you see the the light going out.
Mhmm. And so it's Yeah. I'm I think last I saw, I think she started, became one of the, because Playboy decided that it wanted it wanted a part of that type of action. It's like, hey. Yeah. We can we can take we can do an only fans type of of service. Mhmm. And so I she went over to to Playboy. That was when I was like, okay. Yeah. She's she's completely lost me whenever she did that. And I just wonder if I stopped, stopped following her on a lot of that and, and stuff. But then there's others like, there was another there was another girl who, name was is what? Avalon Warren is what she goes by.
But she has thankfully stayed clean. And if you wanna call it pure, I mean, I think, she got married here, a couple 2 or 3 years ago and, started incorporating her husband into into, her her deal. But she used to do a lot of lot of, of, the not the dressing up of, like, characters.
[01:39:18] Rich Chelson:
Cosplay.
[01:39:19] Bryan Goodwin:
Cosplay. Thank you. Yeah. I was like, oh, good thing in the name. So anyhow, she she does a lot of cosplay and stuff and so she dresses up and and, and puts on different wigs and things like that. And that was but that's the closest to risque she gets. Mhmm. Sometimes she she wears a, might wear a a dress, a a nice looking dress. Now it might be a little cut, little a little low, but that but it it works. It's not a slutty down to the belly butt type of cut, but it's Right. But she still is having a lot of fun creating her content and sharing her life and her and her marriage, on the Instagram. And and because of that, you could see that's The difference between those two girls.
1 is, see, she's doing it because she that's sadly, she's told herself that's all she could do now. Mhmm. And she's lost the fire in her eyes while the other one has still is still going, still having a good time. She may be struggling from here and there. Sometimes she shares that.
[01:40:26] Rich Chelson:
Well, you know, and and that's that's called running a business.
[01:40:30] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. But that's, but at the same time, that's the problem that a lot of the only fan girls have. Is they they go down that that that route thinking that, hey, I can make I can make a $1,000,000. All I have to do is show them show them my my cookie and and we're all good. And, no. Right. It starts out as a simple little booby flash down to, you know, maybe a little little flash of panties here and there. Mhmm. Then all of a sudden to get more people, all of a sudden you have to, start removing your top. Right. And you and you're like, oh, I'm not I'm only hanging there. I'm not going anymore. Oh, okay. Okay. I'll close the panties.
Right. Oh, wait a minute. Okay. We'll start playing with toys and it can divulges down more and more to work. Alright. I we bring my boyfriend in. My boyfriend's into it. So we start photo filming ourselves having sex. Oh, well, that's not bringing in a whole lot of people anymore. So we need to bring in my boyfriend's friend, Phil, and they do their thing. And then we got boyfriend's Phil and boy, friend's girlfriend, and we have all 4 of us are all go and it divulges into into a a loss of your soul.
[01:41:41] Rich Chelson:
No. Straight up porn.
[01:41:42] Bryan Goodwin:
And Well, yeah. Oh, even the it it all is.
[01:41:47] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. But but you're saying, I mean, I've never looked at an OnlyFans page, so I don't even know what they look like. I mean, because one because, like like, take a look at TikTok, and I I don't I don't get on TikTok much anymore. But you've got these soccer moms. I call them soccer moms, you know, that, you know Try and learn to understand. Yeah. Take their kids to school and then come in in some you you know, do what TikTok videos with with sexy outfits and all like this, trying to get you to follow them. Or Oh, they're only fans. Yeah. Yeah. Or, you know, whatever. And it's like, why?
It's like, you need to have a little more respect for yourself. What? You're bored? You don't have enough money? Your husband doesn't make enough money to elect to stay at home and go shopping. Sadly, most of them are are have said that they're strong women,
[01:42:42] Bryan Goodwin:
strong independent women, so they don't need a man. They've been told they don't need a man so they've got Fine. Well, fine. They've got 1, 2 kids and then yeah. And then they wonder again why they can't find a good man. And that's sadly that's the big part the the big realization that's slapping my car a lot of these a lot of these young feminists in the face. They're realizing, holy crap. I'm 38 years old. I'm 35, 38 years old, and I don't have my family yet. Right. And guess what? You're probably not gonna have your family because your eggs have used up.
Probably. It is harder for you at 35 to have a kid.
[01:43:23] Rich Chelson:
Yeah.
[01:43:24] Bryan Goodwin:
Is it possible? Yeah. I mean, there's there's been 60 year olds who have, all of a sudden, had a kid, and they're like, oh, holy shit. We've got a kid coming along. Right. But but again, it's but it's it's so to to the majority of women, when you get past 35, your ability to get pregnant and to have a healthy, healthy, baby starts It's just griddling. Yeah. And especially when you hit 50, all of a sudden, your your op your ability to produce a child that doesn't have down syndrome starts dropping. Right. Your chances of it of down syndrome child are increases as after 50. Not to mention, I mean, come on. Who wants to have a kid at 50? That means they're not leaving the house till you're 70.
[01:44:14] Rich Chelson:
Yeah. And I mean, some people want that. That's fine. But, you know, not even what it was. You're able to have that, that's great. But and if I had
[01:44:23] Bryan Goodwin:
you know, there's a part of me that kinda wishes. It's like, yeah. I would think it'd be kinda nice to have, you know, 7, 8 kids running around the house. I mean, the the grocery bill would would be be a bit painful. Okay. It would be horrendous, but at the same time, I would still I would probably take them and shove them outside and go, there's a garden over there. Work that garden. That's what we're eating.
[01:44:48] Rich Chelson:
Right. Because because 7, 8 if if you had 7, 8 kids, driving a truck would not
[01:44:55] Bryan Goodwin:
would not pay the bills. No. No. No. It wouldn't it wouldn't take care of the business at all. I mean, you would you would have to be you would you literally have to be living off the land. You would have to have a herd of cattle that you could take. You you could slaughter. Have some hogs. Have some chickens. Have some ducks. Have some geese. So that you had enough protein being produced to be able to feed that that Grant's army. So because you'd be walking around with Grant's army.
[01:45:22] Rich Chelson:
Well, I mean I mean, you would have a decent start on on a basketball team. Yeah. Yeah. Just finding it. True. But yeah. No. It just but I don't know. It just it just you know, these people do this thinking that, oh, I'm gonna get rich. I'm gonna get rich. And, and, you know, people need to pay me. They owe me. And then in 10 to 15 years, then they realize, oh, shit. I should have started it a long time back. You know? Yeah. Should have started backing your whip back when you were 20.
[01:45:59] Bryan Goodwin:
And I I'm a bit guilty of that on telling my kids that too. Because, like, let start looking at stuff in your, you know, get past 25 before you start looking looking to to get serious. Well, and same And My first marriage, I was 25 I'm I'm when I got married. Yeah. When I first married, I was 23. And I am now at point where I'm going, holy crap. No. That was bad advice I was giving my kids. Mhmm. Y'all wanna be as young as possible. Because one, you have plenty of energy to chase after the little shits when they're when they're growing up. Right. But But second of all though, the thing is still
[01:46:42] Rich Chelson:
The thing is you've got the media or, well, everybody, the, the, the school system and, and, and the woke liberals trying to deter the kids. Oh, yeah. You know, to to not get together or, or you, you know, not to get married and then all like this. And it's just, Yeah. Marriage is worth
[01:47:04] Bryan Goodwin:
it. Man, it's like really dang. You you wanna you wanna, one of the biggest lies that they I've heard more girls, and guys say is, well, you wanna you you wanna have sex, before you get married because how are you gonna know if that person's any good? Well, if you've never had sex, you're not gonna give a rat's ass with how good they are. You're just glad you're fucking getting it. Exactly. You don't have anything to put good is. Right? And if if she's if she's if she's a virgin, you're a virgin, y'all get to have the most fun out of everybody because you get to try everything and it is actually all kosher.
[01:47:40] Rich Chelson:
Yep. Yep. No. No. It's true. But but you see, that's the thing, you know, it's and and it's like and then later on, as they grow up, they start booing and, and, you know, everyone, oh, poor baby. I'm sorry. I don't, I don't feel sorry for you.
[01:47:59] Bryan Goodwin:
Precisely.
[01:48:00] Rich Chelson:
I I just I can't because I made my choices. I fucked up. I had to live with my choices. Yeah. I didn't ask anyone to feel sorry for me. Yeah. There you go. You're back.
[01:48:14] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah. No. I was choked up.
[01:48:16] Rich Chelson:
Oh, but yeah. No. It it just I don't know. So, yeah, that, a thought.
[01:48:25] Bryan Goodwin:
A thought. And sadly, it is as they it makes them as as as valuable as a thought.
[01:48:36] Rich Chelson:
But you see, this is what I don't get. Why is this such a big deal? This has been the whole thing. Why why I mean, I mean, why is this such a big deal? I'm I'm not understanding. Nowadays?
[01:48:52] Bryan Goodwin:
I mean, nowadays, why or here just recently has become such a big deal is because it is because at first, yeah, you got the occasional the occasional, found the occasional dirty magazine. You may have found, you know, your your uncle may have had a collection of playboys and you came across 1. Right. And, you know, that was a that was a that was a rare thing. You you as your neighborhood had the the communal collection of maybe 3 magazines. Yeah. And you couldn't read half of them because the pages were stuck together. Right. Right. You know? You need it. So Yeah. It was hard to find, but, and, yeah. We were exposed to it. But nowadays, you're exposed You can view any type of debaucherous type of act for free at any time you want.
Mhmm. And, yeah, it's the guy's fault because they don't have the proverbial balls enough to actually go talk to a girl. It's easier to to to to squeeze one out and and, you know, shake one out and and then go to bed than to call up a girl and go, hey. What's going on? And take and risk the chance of being rejected. Yeah. I get being rejected hurts. Guess what? I'm married. I still get rejected. I'm like, hey, baby. You wanna no. Okay. Alright. Fine. And so it it that doesn't happen. Right. And we get you still are gonna get rejected when you're married, and that is all because again, I can look at it as it's a problem with her, but it's not. It's a problem with me.
If she doesn't have the connection with me, that's my fault.
[01:50:43] Rich Chelson:
Mhmm.
[01:50:44] Bryan Goodwin:
And so and and again, there for a while, yeah, I would sit there and I had no problem looking at porn. I had no problem mentioning the fact that I did look at porn. It was just, yeah, porn's there. It I look at it. I used to, I used to do a thing called screen wise, which was, there for a while, Google would pay you in points for the for you to allow them to spy on. Okay. Where do you go? What's your browsing habits? What do you do here? What's, you know, do all this stuff. And you would run your stuff through one of their proxy servers, and they would doc you know, they would record all all every place that you went. And for, depending on how many, devices you actually had set up, depended on how many points you actually got. Right. Right. And so that's where I got both my tents that I have, my fly rod, my, hatchet, my, my Hori Hori knife, and quite a few other outdoor materials was all thanks to Google and and their screen wise program.
[01:51:55] Rich Chelson:
Okay.
[01:51:56] Bryan Goodwin:
And, I used to have a couple of guys who knew that I was on there was, like, going, well, aren't you afraid that, that Google's gonna see that, see what you do? And it's like, all they're get all the information they gave him from me is that he spends a lot of time on Facebook and porn, you know? It was and okay. So they they know that I they'd know what type of girl I prefer to look at in on on pornographic sites. There's not much else other than that. Right. I mean, if they if I was a a political figure, I'm sure they could probably go, oh, yeah. Why is he after redheads that are, you know, that have got, 36, 24, 36, dimensions. It's like 5 foot 3, baby. 5 foot 3. You know?
It is because, you know we got back. Because they're because sorry. I I I I've always had a thing for fire crotch. It's just me, man.
[01:52:50] Rich Chelson:
Hey. Okay? Go for it, dude. But now it just but but you see, that's the thing. You know, why why do we because all of us, I'm not talking just us. I'm talking everybody in the whole world is guilty of something like this. Okay? Yeah. So so why are we being so self righteous to just this group of people?
[01:53:16] Bryan Goodwin:
Why is this the big thing is, I guess, actually what I'm asking. Because Because people are because the actually, society right now is starting to wake up to the fact that, 1, when when you are when you you think you're the only group who is being disadvantaged Mhmm. You're fooling yourself. And that's what feminists do. I mean, fem we've I've mentioned it before. Feminists is for equal opportunity. Right. It's not for equal opportunity of women. It's for equal opportunity of ugly women. Alright? Okay. Yeah. And so that's why that's why they allow, the cheer on the the good looking women to start going into porn. That's why they cheer on the good looking women to do the stuff that lowers their value.
Because if they can lower the value of the good looking women, then the ugly women who have 37 piercings on their face and have tattoos all, you know, up around their neck and and covering their and and on their eyes and everything else, it makes them just absolutely ready and horrendous looking. You know, they have a better chance of, oh, hey, look. I might accidentally be able to to land a a a rich bachelor.
[01:54:32] Rich Chelson:
Well, I mean, that I mean, anything's possible.
[01:54:35] Bryan Goodwin:
But No. Anything's possible. But at the same time, they they are women a lot of the feminists, if they stopped and sat back and paid attention to what was going on, they could see that, yeah, you have a better chance of getting a high valued man, but you even run a even better chance of just getting a damn good man.
[01:55:00] Rich Chelson:
Well, you see the thing is though it's simple. If if you have to bring someone else down to lift you up, that should tell you change the way you are. Take out your 37 fucking piercings. The tattoos you can't do anything about, but that's accepted nowadays. So don't fucking worry about that. Take out all them all all this metal in your face and change your mindset, change your attitude, and be a better person. And guess what? You'll stand to set at least an 80% chance of getting a good man.
[01:55:34] Bryan Goodwin:
Yeah.
[01:55:35] Rich Chelson:
I can run a better chance when you I mean, think about it. Increase your value. Exactly. Instead of bringing other people down, because bringing someone else down to raise you up, that is, in my eyes, that's the worst thing anybody can do. That is the lowest form of disrespect. That, I mean, that is, that is just, oh, you know, it's like, no, you don't step on another motherfucker to get somewhere.
[01:56:03] Bryan Goodwin:
I can I can I I I see that and I I can con concur even though I'm sure people are going, but you've been doing it this whole time? And to a point, yeah. Yeah. I have been because I see so many of the good, beautiful girls who could have damn good guys believe in a lie that they don't have to get married right now. That, it is better to go out and to work in an work in a in a a corporation and try to be as manly as you possibly can to match the masculine energy of corporation. No. I'm And then they come they show up at the house. They're burnt out. They're frazzled.
They have no energy for their kids. They have no energy for their, for their husband if they are married. And that and then they and then the guys granted, the guys are not being any help either. The guys have to learn how to stand up and be manly
[01:57:09] Duuude-Ron :
Mhmm.
[01:57:10] Rich Chelson:
Because The right way. Not the right way. Way
[01:57:13] Bryan Goodwin:
and not the not And Manley is with an increased sense of masculinity, not a decreased sense masculinity. Those are where the the guys who are the quote, unquote toxic masculinity guys. There is a, there is a, time when that shows up, and that is when there's an absence of masculinity in a man's in a man's life. But if you can if the guys would step up and actually start, I've got 4 pillars that I I recommend men do. They need to be keep reading. They need to keep growing. They need to keep themselves in shape. They need to be able to, be pursuing a a project of some sorts, finding their purpose. And then but the most important being, they'd have a a community of men that they talk to on a regular basis. Hence, what what the 2 grumpy, vets and a dude is. Right. Exactly. We are are a little community, of guys who lift each other up. And and and actually, we
[01:58:15] Rich Chelson:
we have a call that's not recorded on Wednesday nights. Yeah. And it's, for vets who wanna join. Yeah. Yeah. That's for all vets. And sometimes we get, you know, 3 or 4 others jump in and, you know, we just have a good good time with it. But, you know, but, yeah, this that call on Wednesday night's not recorded, but you see, this is what we do. And and what you're hearing tonight, this is a a lot of times what we talk about, you know, because sometimes something nice says Brian Brian will challenge me on it or I'll challenge Brian on something Like like I've been doing Brian or sometimes dude, I'll challenge with or or dude will challenge me or Brian. And that's what helps bring men to be better.
Right. You know? I mean, not saying everyone's right all the time, but, you know, hey. Gives you something to think about. Right. And and disagreements
[01:59:13] Bryan Goodwin:
aren't a bad thing. No. Disagreements are actually very good. And that's, reading a book, by a guy named Jason, Gaddis. And, his his name of the book is, Getting to 0, and he's actually talking about how, conflict in your life actually helps you have the better relationship because it does force you to get better. If you're too busy worrying about what, what's going on on your inside Mhmm. You're not going to be seeking to understand your your your spouse better. And she's gonna have a disagreement. And so that you don't have to worry about the inner conflict you're having, you're going to avoid having a discussion with her. And so the lack of discussion, which is a lack of of conflict, conflict being just not seeing eye to eye, when you have conflict, you actually get a better connection with each other because you get to have a better understanding with each other. Okay.
Okay. I can I can I can kinda see that? So I I I and I'm still struggling, God, fully seeing it. I'm like going, man, but let me go on here. You you want I don't wanna fight with my wife to have a good time. I mean, that's
[02:00:35] Rich Chelson:
like, you know, and I and that's my goal. And that's where anti confrontation that shows up on that. That's work that I have to do. Right. Right. But but, see, that's where that's where, I I mean, I can kinda see what he's saying, but I would need to read the book to get the full context. Right. And because yeah. No. Most of what you said right as of right now, I couldn't fully
[02:00:59] Bryan Goodwin:
grasp it, you know, just because Right. I haven't read the book. I mean Yeah. I'm on I'm on, like, chapter I think I've got, like, 4 more hours of listening. So I'm I'm still somewhat, I'm I'm about 6 hours into a 10 hour book. So I've still got a ways to go.
[02:01:16] Rich Chelson:
Well, you're,
[02:01:18] Bryan Goodwin:
you you're more than halfway. So Yeah. Yeah. I have cleared the halfway mark. So but anyhow, so what, what do we have for time? So that way I don't go sideways again. It's 953.
[02:01:31] Rich Chelson:
953.
[02:01:31] Bryan Goodwin:
Alright. That's so good. Last time I looked, we didn't have any new, boosters. Have you,
[02:01:39] Rich Chelson:
let me double check real quick. Oh, no, I've got nothing in in the chat here.
[02:01:48] Bryan Goodwin:
Alright. So Okay. So alright. Well, guys, this is a, this podcast and and live video feed that we're doing right now is just a little something extra, but our show as a whole is a podcasting 2.0 compatible, Chico, which means that we work off of value for value. You're not gonna see us pimping, you know, mattresses or or food delivery systems or anything like that. Or jeeps. We'll not or talk about jeeps, but we Well, yeah. We can't even sell a jeep Jeep. But, but Yeah. We're we don't have sponsors. Never will have sponsors. We're not we don't have sponsors. We're not gonna do any type of sponsoring. If you catch us advertising anything, it'll probably be end up being Merck. So that's about the closest that we're gonna be. Yeah. Iron merch. Yeah. And so but one of the things that we are doing so that we can actually afford the hosting fees, so we can afford to be able to produce merch, merchandise and things like that, is that we are a value for values, podcast.
Which means that not only do we, hope that maybe somewhere along the way, you might send us some money, which you can do if you go to 2 grumpy vets.com. You'll see a value for value tab at the top. You can hit that and you can send us a you can actually set up a reoccurring purchase or payment through PayPal, and we can we'll receive those, those types of payments. But we also, we also just enjoy having and are grateful for any type of value you wanna give. If you are a, value for value is time, talent, or treasure. So if you have, time in your in your day and you wanna be able to help us out by, by working on on chapters for the next episode, we can we can, help you we get you set up so that you can actually set up the the chapters and get all that taken care of. If you are good at graphic Cover art.
Doing chapter art, cover art. We always try to change the the cover art. I'd love to have start getting multiple people, competing for the for the cover art. And what we would do is just take the cover all the different submitted cover arts and use them for the chapter arts also. So we can show people show all the different, chapters, all the different hard work that y'all have done. So there's there's also that. We've got so many different ways that you can you can contribute. If you do, do graphic design, maybe you help us some way, form, or or another. We, if somewhere down the way may maybe we get big enough here on on on Twitch, we don't get our happy asses kicked off down the road somewhere that, you know, we all of a sudden are, need some moderators. So maybe if you're if you're popular or not popular, but if you're active enough and maybe you have have sent, sent over some, some SATS stuff, we might be able to utilize you in that in that department.
But also, if you have any comments or questions and stuff like that, we also use the SATs which falls under the, the the treasure. This is the money that, that you have chosen to send over to us. But we also you can also send us questions by doing a boostogram, and you can do all of this through a podcasting 2.0 compliant, podcast app. These are apps like, Fountain or Podverse or Podcast Guru. True Fans. You get you can find truth, true fans. You can get all these, by going over to new podcasting, new podcast app dot com or go to, podcasting 2.org/apps, and you will be able to see all the different types of apps that are, that are available there. And, you just choose 1 and see which one you like. I know Podcast Guru is about to come out with a new, new version, and that version is supposed to have, smart list on it, which if that happens, that'll be great because I've I've been using Cast O Matic.
And the all there's I've got one big problem with Cast O Matic, and that is when you try to speed up your, your your your app listing speed, you get to you start getting clipping in there. So you you start hearing little artifacts of the fact that they're cutting the No. The sound out Yeah. Yeah. And stuff. So it it draws you out of the show. And, I don't like that. That's about the only complaint I have about, Cast O Matic. Other than other than I really do wish that they, would incorporate a couple of the other features, like the person's tag and, and the blog roll. I think those would be great features to have added into the Cast O Matic app also. Well, maybe in the future, they'll have it. Yeah. They probably add them into future. I mean, it wouldn't be it shouldn't I don't think it would be that hard. This is being developer Brian who's never developed anything. So
[02:06:57] Rich Chelson:
But but yeah. And and and, honestly, also, if, reach out to us and just say, hey. We'd love to hear from you. Love to hear got an idea for to hear your feedback.
[02:07:09] Bryan Goodwin:
A story that you wanna discuss or you've got a top a a a a a segment that you think we ought to, ought to incorporate, reach out. You can, reach rich over at rchelson atgmail.com. I'm at circle cast. That's circle cast as in like fishing line casting, [email protected]. And dude is, well, he's a secret. So you can so you can if you wanna if you wanna know any information from Dude, just shoot us an email, and we will when we read it out on the show on, on air, we'll let, we'll let dude answer the answer the question then. So, yeah, send send in all all your questions and comments
[02:07:55] Rich Chelson:
for the dude.
[02:07:58] Bryan Goodwin:
And so we would love to be able to hear from you, because that we're we're not getting far from being tired of doing this show because society and and and the Internet itself keeps producing more and more interesting stuff to talk about.
[02:08:13] Rich Chelson:
Right. So and and, Yeah. You know do you know this will be episode 10, I believe?
[02:08:21] Bryan Goodwin:
No. Episode 9. 0 99. Okay. Never mind. Yep. My bad. Yep. One more. We got one one. Next week next week's, is episode 10. So we're we're but, yeah, we have made it past the dreaded 7th episode. Yes. We have. So we have done more than the majority of all the anchor cast out there. So woo hoo. Back on. Actually, I think there's, like, 2 ache casts that have gone longer than than 7 episodes. Most of them don't even make it past episode 2. So
[02:08:55] Rich Chelson:
Right. Right. Well, they all expect expect to make Joe Rogan money.
[02:09:00] Bryan Goodwin:
Well, yeah. But You know? Now Joe Rogan now now even Joe Rogan ain't making Joe Rogan money. So Right. He he's they they were like going, okay. Okay. You go do your thing and we're not gonna we we don't have the money to spend that spend that again. Right.
[02:09:18] Duuude-Ron :
You're right.
[02:09:20] Bryan Goodwin:
So that and it it's it's good to see him back on back on YouTube again. I think he's still working to get built back up, a little bit, but he he he's still he's still showing up.
[02:09:32] Rich Chelson:
Well, good deal.
[02:09:34] Bryan Goodwin:
So but, anyhow, so, before we go, we all like to have just give each each of y'all a a little closing in mind is, guys, I know we're we've been kinda hard on on certain segments, of society, but doesn't mean that it is something that we are to hate. It's not something that we are to to look down upon. Yes. There are there are issues with the choices that they have made, but at the same time, we they are still humans. They are still, still people who have a a great experience in their life. And so to to demean them strictly because of what they are and because you've decided that they're not the, the wife material that you would like to have, doesn't mean that you're to exclude them either.
They are humans. They made the choice. They made the conscious choice. They have they they are they have their own, own bed that they've made and now they get to get sleep in it. But they are still a a contributing member to society because they are actually, go questionably bringing in money how they are bringing it in. They are still people. And so, never wanna actually dissuade somebody, by by doing a complete total ostracization because remember, those tables can always change on And what do you think you're on the on the, one side and you're like, ah, well, we're gonna we're we're not gonna have anything to do with it. We're gonna cancel you. Just know that that canceling can also happen the opposite direction, and all you have to do is be on the wrong side. So it's always good to show a little bit of compassion towards anybody and everybody around you. So, guys, with that, I'm gonna pass the, pass it on over to Rich. Rich, what do you got as a close part?
[02:11:40] Rich Chelson:
Well, kinda about what you're saying, just, you know, yes. Yes. We do talk a lot about, you know, different cultures and and whatever, you know, Gen x, Gen z, and all like this and all like that. But in the end, just be kind because you don't know what the other person is going through. You don't know why they're doing what they're doing. They might have to do it that way for a while. They don't like to, but they might have to. But in the end, just, you know, just be kind because it's not your job to judge other people. Judge yourself.
You know, look inside first and, you know, just just be nice. And, you know, because a smile that you give someone might keep that person alive for the rest of the day. You don't know.
[02:12:32] Bryan Goodwin:
Yep. So But but also remember, if you don't have anything nice to say, come sit over here by me.
[02:12:42] Rich Chelson:
This is why we talk so much, Brian. Exactly.
[02:12:45] Bryan Goodwin:
So alright. Now, dude, what do you got for your closing remarks?
[02:12:51] Duuude-Ron :
I said it before, and I'll say it again. There are a lot of service members that are hurting mentally inside. So if you know a service member that is struggling and thinking about suicide, talk to them. K. Find out what is troubling them and see if you can't help them. Because right now, the average is 22 a day. We lose 22 service members or retirees or just people that have been in the military, we lose 22 a day on average just suicide. And that is 22 a day, too many. So, again, if you know somebody that's hurting, you know, please reach out. Go.
Your your conversation and your voice may be what they need to get over that particular hurdle and or event and help him along in life.
[02:14:16] Rich Chelson:
Sounds good. Absolutely. That's that's exactly right.
[02:14:22] Bryan Goodwin:
