[0:01:09 – 0:01:10] Erik: Like it should be.
[0:01:10 – 0:01:12] Adam: With our heater and our lights.
[0:01:12 – 0:01:18] Erik: Heater, lights, all running in nice, quiet, silent, steady form.

[0:01:40 – 0:01:40] Adam: Standing.
[0:01:40 – 0:01:41] Adam: Seems reasonable.
[0:01:41 – 0:01:42] Erik: Yeah.
[0:01:42 – 0:01:43] Erik: Seems reasonable.
[0:01:44 – 0:01:53] Erik: Like any good, any project that you think is going to be a nice quick Sunday afternoon fix, sometimes it turns into a three-day plumbing.
[0:01:53 – 0:01:53] Erik: Four-day.
[0:01:54 – 0:01:56] Erik: Bacchanalia of disappointment.
[0:01:56 – 0:01:58] Adam: I love my new sink.

[0:02:07 – 0:02:09] Adam Field Mic: I need a 90 degree bender.
[0:02:11 – 0:02:12] Adam: And somehow another drain pipe?
[0:02:13 – 0:02:14] Adam: I don’t know where all these pieces are going.
[0:02:16 – 0:02:17] Adam: Yeah, I’m plumbing.
[0:02:17 – 0:02:18] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:02:18 – 0:02:21] Adam: How do people get any home improvements done before YouTube videos?
[0:02:23 – 0:02:27] Adam: I watched about 12 of them today alone, and I’m still not complete.
[0:02:28 – 0:02:30] Adam Field Mic: I’m making progress.
[0:02:31 – 0:02:33] Adam: How does a P-trap really work?

[0:03:44 – 0:03:46] Erik: I think maybe, but maybe not.
[0:03:46 – 0:03:47] Erik: Maybe not.

[0:07:52 – 0:07:52] Erik: I don’t think so.
[0:07:52 – 0:07:53] Adam: I don’t know where it’s set.
[0:07:54 – 0:08:00] Adam: I know nothing about the movie other than it’s Daniel Day-Lewis’ final film and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.
[0:08:01 – 0:08:02] Adam: How is that going to let us down?

[0:08:08 – 0:08:09] Erik: Yeah, I’m sure.
[0:08:09 – 0:08:13] Erik: I just can’t wait until she kisses the water monster at the end.

[0:08:18 – 0:08:18] Adam: Mm-hmm.
[0:08:18 – 0:08:19] Adam: Mm-hmm.
[0:08:19 – 0:08:20] Erik: Yes.
[0:08:20 – 0:08:23] Erik: Those movies are the same in my head, and I’ve seen neither of them.
[0:08:23 – 0:08:25] Erik: So I hope there’s a water monster.
[0:08:25 – 0:08:26] Erik: I hope you pick that one then next.
[0:08:26 – 0:08:27] Erik: I should just watch that.

[0:10:06 – 0:10:08] Erik: Except for the bulging bottom.
[0:10:08 – 0:10:10] Adam: So then I let them thaw.
[0:10:12 – 0:10:17] Adam: I put them in a warm blanket, and then I put them back in the fridge, and they seemed fine to me.

[0:11:11 – 0:11:12] Erik: Because I’m easy.
[0:11:13 – 0:11:15] Erik: Like flipping and flopping a sink.
[0:11:15 – 0:11:16] Erik: All the parts will match up.
[0:11:17 – 0:11:18] Erik: The screws and the counters.
[0:11:18 – 0:11:20] Erik: It’s all just going to be zip, zap, zoom.
[0:11:20 – 0:11:24] Adam: It’s going to lay right in there like frozen beer in a warm bed.
[0:11:24 – 0:11:25] Adam: Yeah.

[0:11:38 – 0:11:39] Adam Field Mic: Yeah, don’t get me started.
[0:11:39 – 0:11:41] Adam: I don’t know anything about dishwashers.
[0:11:42 – 0:11:43] Adam: Do I need glue?
[0:11:43 – 0:11:45] Adam: Do I need the purple primer, listeners?
[0:11:45 – 0:11:46] Adam: I think you do.
[0:11:47 – 0:11:53] Erik: I think it’s an additional, I think it’s a big old purple hoax, that primer thing.
[0:11:54 – 0:11:54] Adam: You think so, huh?
[0:11:55 – 0:11:55] Erik: I think it is.
[0:11:55 – 0:11:57] Erik: If you’re using brand new PVC.
[0:11:57 – 0:11:58] Erik: Right.
[0:11:58 – 0:12:00] Erik: You can get by with just straight up glue.
[0:12:01 – 0:12:01] Erik: Probably.
[0:12:01 – 0:12:04] Erik: Primer is just a cleaner, right?
[0:12:04 – 0:12:10] Erik: If you’re out in the woods putting together a sprinkler system like PVC, I think a primer is nice.
[0:12:10 – 0:12:13] Erik: Or if you’re using old PVC that might have paint on it or something.
[0:12:13 – 0:12:14] Erik: Sure, sure.
[0:12:14 – 0:12:20] Adam: I think it’s just to make it another little layer of friction in there to snug up the fit, no?
[0:12:20 – 0:12:21] Adam: Maybe.
[0:12:21 – 0:12:21] Adam: Give it a little extra.
[0:12:22 – 0:12:23] Adam: Any plumbers out there?
[0:12:23 – 0:12:25] Adam: Glue is for the good times.
[0:12:25 – 0:12:26] Adam: Primer, it’s forever.
[0:12:26 – 0:12:29] Adam: That’s what they say in plumbing school.
[0:12:29 – 0:12:34] Erik: Yeah, and you can usually tell how frantic a project was just by how much purple is dripping.
[0:12:34 – 0:12:36] Adam: How much purple slapped around in this cabinet.
[0:12:38 – 0:12:40] Adam: I’m going to vow I’m going to do a good job tomorrow.
[0:12:40 – 0:12:44] Adam: I’m going to lay down some towels first to make sure I don’t slap any of that purple stuff in.
[0:12:44 – 0:12:45] Adam: So I basically got it all together.
[0:12:46 – 0:12:50] Adam: I just got to get like two more pieces and then make sure it all fits and then glue it all together.
[0:12:51 – 0:12:51] Adam: Call it a day.
[0:12:52 – 0:12:53] Adam: Didn’t just run the water.
[0:12:53 – 0:12:54] Adam: Just run the water for a good hour.
[0:12:55 – 0:12:55] Adam: Yeah.
[0:12:55 – 0:12:56] Adam: Bathe in it.
[0:12:56 – 0:12:57] Adam: Bathe in it.
[0:12:57 – 0:12:58] Adam: The sink is big enough.
[0:12:58 – 0:12:59] Adam: I could straight up take a bath in this sink.
[0:13:00 – 0:13:00] Erik: It’s huge.
[0:13:00 – 0:13:01] Erik: What’s the…
[0:13:02 – 0:13:02] Adam: It’s massive.
[0:13:03 – 0:13:06] Erik: Looks like Grimace was murdered under this sink.
[0:13:06 – 0:13:07] Erik: It’s so purple.
[0:13:08 – 0:13:12] Adam: Is that the Hamburglar’s buddy?
[0:13:12 – 0:13:13] Adam: I don’t think they were buddies.
[0:13:13 – 0:13:16] Adam: No, they effing hated each other.
[0:13:16 – 0:13:18] Erik: I don’t think anybody was buddies with the Hamburglar.
[0:13:18 – 0:13:19] Erik: Despised him.
[0:13:20 – 0:13:26] Erik: I think he was just a purple… What was he?
[0:13:26 – 0:13:27] Adam: I like the Hamburglar.
[0:13:28 – 0:13:28] Adam: Are you talking about Grimace?
[0:13:29 – 0:13:29] Erik: Grimace.
[0:13:29 – 0:13:30] Erik: What was Grimace?
[0:13:30 – 0:13:34] Erik: Yeah, he was just like a turd, like a big bean.
[0:13:34 – 0:13:35] Erik: What was Grimace?
[0:13:35 – 0:13:35] Erik: What was he?
[0:13:36 – 0:13:37] Erik: He wasn’t like a food item.
[0:13:37 – 0:13:39] Adam: I think he’s like a dog.
[0:13:39 – 0:13:40] Erik: He was like a fat eggplant.
[0:13:40 – 0:13:42] Erik: A dog?
[0:13:42 – 0:13:43] Erik: He was a dog.
[0:13:43 – 0:13:46] Adam: He was a squid of some sort that loves burgers.
[0:13:47 – 0:13:49] Erik: It’s honestly a pretty weak concept.
[0:13:49 – 0:13:51] Adam: Now I’m going to have to keep pulling it up.
[0:13:51 – 0:13:52] Adam: How’s the internet doing right now?
[0:13:52 – 0:13:53] Adam: I got to see him.
[0:13:53 – 0:13:59] Adam: I can picture him in my mind, but I got to say it’s been many years since I’ve… Is Grimace still part of the branding?
[0:13:59 – 0:14:01] Adam: I don’t think Grimace is in the package anymore.
[0:14:01 – 0:14:04] Erik: No, I don’t think… Back in the day, they had all these characters.
[0:14:04 – 0:14:06] Adam: Everybody out there is like, what the heck are they talking about?
[0:14:07 – 0:14:09] Erik: I don’t know how you could…
[0:14:09 – 0:14:11] Adam: I remember the Hamburglar distinctly.
[0:14:11 – 0:14:13] Adam: That’d be a good Halloween costume.
[0:14:13 – 0:14:13] Adam: Grimace?
[0:14:13 – 0:14:14] Adam: That’s just disgusting.
[0:14:14 – 0:14:21] Erik: Yeah, I don’t know how you could keep a relationship with this character for more than just a couple of months.
[0:14:21 – 0:14:22] Adam: Yeah, what the…
[0:14:25 – 0:14:50] Adam: uh is it like grape soda he’s like grape soda in personified yeah i don’t know i think it’s grape soda come to life that’s what he is but they’re not known for grape soda they’re known for high sea orange what the heck’s going on here i worked at mcdonald’s i know their menu did you i did i was the drive it was like the best drive-thru worker in all eastern wisconsin for two years there do you have anything you have anything to prove that
[0:14:51 – 0:14:52] Adam: Uh, no, I don’t know.
[0:14:52 – 0:15:01] Adam: I can say is that, uh, for fun, we would just be like, I wonder, Hey, I wonder how many milks I can upsell every car that comes through.
[0:15:01 – 0:15:02] Adam: Like you want to add a milk to that?
[0:15:02 – 0:15:05] Adam: You’d be surprised how many people just say yes to that.
[0:15:05 – 0:15:07] Adam: And it’s probably cause it was an Eastern Wisconsin though.
[0:15:07 – 0:15:08] Erik: Well, sure.
[0:15:08 – 0:15:09] Erik: You want to add a milk on there?
[0:15:09 – 0:15:12] Adam: I think the record in a shift was like 110 milks upsold.
[0:15:13 – 0:15:15] Adam: They were getting mad at me, like, quit it.
[0:15:15 – 0:15:16] Adam: We’re running out of milk.
[0:15:18 – 0:15:20] Adam: I got reprimanded for selling too much milk.
[0:15:21 – 0:15:22] Adam: That’s how good I was, Eric.
[0:15:22 – 0:15:23] Adam: I mean.
[0:15:23 – 0:15:25] Adam: We had two windows and two lanes.
[0:15:25 – 0:15:26] Adam: Wow, that seems like.
[0:15:26 – 0:15:33] Adam: You’d alternate, but I would work window one and do the money, and then they’d hand out all the milk in the back.
[0:15:33 – 0:15:35] Adam Field Mic: Yeah, your milk wagon back there.
[0:15:35 – 0:15:37] Adam: Give me the cash.
[0:15:37 – 0:15:38] Adam: Give me the cash right now, sir.
[0:15:39 – 0:15:42] Erik: I forgot about the two-window system at McDonald’s back in the day.
[0:15:42 – 0:15:44] Adam: See, I think that validates my claim right there.
[0:15:44 – 0:15:46] Adam: What was the two-window system?
[0:15:46 – 0:15:48] Erik: Was it you paid at the first one?
[0:15:48 – 0:15:49] Adam: It was two lanes, two windows.
[0:15:49 – 0:15:51] Adam: So then you had multiple lanes going.
[0:15:51 – 0:15:55] Adam: So I would be doing left side and working window one in the cash.
[0:15:55 – 0:15:58] Adam: So you’d be taking orders and doing cash.
[0:15:58 – 0:15:59] Erik: Well, that’s intense because I don’t remember.
[0:15:59 – 0:16:03] Adam: And then the second window would be taking the orders from the other lane but then giving out the milk.
[0:16:04 – 0:16:27] Adam: the goods and the burgers oh well and the not grape drink i see orange i don’t know if i can actually picture what a two-lane mcdonald’s looks like i remember a single lane one where you stop at the first window and pay and then you go to the second one yeah i don’t know if it was disproven it may have been disproven that it’s not actually more efficient kind of like the five-day work week
[0:16:28 – 0:16:32] Erik: Yeah, some Japanese firm went to work and actually disproved it as being any more efficient.
[0:16:32 – 0:16:34] Adam: Four-day work week, way more productive.
[0:16:34 – 0:16:34] Adam: We’re not doing that.
[0:16:35 – 0:16:36] Adam: No.
[0:16:36 – 0:16:36] Adam: Get out of here.
[0:16:37 – 0:16:44] Erik: No, come in on Friday and work a third of the day, and then come in on Monday and work an eighth of a day.
[0:16:44 – 0:16:44] Erik: You can wear jeans.
[0:16:45 – 0:16:48] Erik: Work one hardcore day during the whole week.
[0:16:48 – 0:16:52] Erik: You put your whole butt into Wednesday.
[0:16:52 – 0:16:54] Adam: Yeah, 12-hour day on Wednesday.
[0:16:54 – 0:16:55] Erik: Yeah, and then you call it good.
[0:16:56 – 0:16:57] Adam: I was doing four tens for a while.
[0:16:57 – 0:17:01] Adam: I did like it, but I want to do four eights and get paid for four tens.
[0:17:01 – 0:17:02] Adam: That’s what I want.
[0:17:02 – 0:17:02] Adam: Sure.
[0:17:02 – 0:17:03] Adam: Revolution.
[0:17:04 – 0:17:05] Adam: And some other stuff.
[0:17:05 – 0:17:08] Adam: I got a few other demands, but that’s one of them.
[0:17:08 – 0:17:10] Erik: Let’s just do a list of demands.
[0:17:11 – 0:17:31] Adam: record scratch this is just going to be adam’s list of demands yeah yeah uh 25 an hour minimum wage health care for everyone why four day work week forget 15 an hour that would have been fine 10 years ago at this point an hour now moving on 25 minimum four day work week but you get paid for full-time money i don’t understand how any like
[0:17:32 – 0:17:34] Adam: Three-day weekend is basically, I’m going to rebrand that one.
[0:17:34 – 0:17:35] Adam: Three-day weekend.
[0:17:35 – 0:17:36] Adam: That’s my demand.
[0:17:37 – 0:17:39] Adam: And full money.
[0:17:39 – 0:17:40] Adam: Full money?
[0:17:40 – 0:17:41] Adam: Yeah, I still want the full money.
[0:17:42 – 0:17:42] Adam: Healthcare.
[0:17:43 – 0:17:46] Adam: Stop spending all my money on bombs and give me healthcare.
[0:17:47 – 0:17:47] Erik: Paid maternity leave?
[0:17:47 – 0:17:48] Erik: It’s my money.
[0:17:48 – 0:17:48] Erik: For what?
[0:17:48 – 0:17:49] Erik: How long?
[0:17:49 – 0:17:54] Adam: I’ve been paying taxes since I was 15 working at the drive-thru at McDonald’s selling milk.
[0:17:54 – 0:17:55] Erik: Minimum six months?
[0:17:56 – 0:17:56] Erik: Year?
[0:17:56 – 0:17:56] Erik: What?
[0:17:57 – 0:17:57] Erik: Maternity leave.
[0:17:58 – 0:17:58] Erik: Paid.
[0:17:58 – 0:17:59] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:17:59 – 0:18:01] Adam: I definitely want this.
[0:18:01 – 0:18:02] Adam: I want some paternity leave now.
[0:18:02 – 0:18:03] Erik: Paternity?
[0:18:04 – 0:18:04] Adam: Both.
[0:18:04 – 0:18:06] Adam: Maternity and paternity.
[0:18:06 – 0:18:07] Erik: I want the whole family off.
[0:18:07 – 0:18:10] Erik: Newborn leave, regardless of who it is.
[0:18:11 – 0:18:12] Erik: Family leave time.
[0:18:13 – 0:18:15] Adam: I want the Boundary Waters to be free.
[0:18:15 – 0:18:18] Adam: I want the Boundary Waters free to anybody with a library card.
[0:18:19 – 0:18:21] Erik: I don’t know about the free for the Boundary Waters aspect.
[0:18:22 – 0:18:23] Erik: We can brainstorm that one.
[0:18:23 – 0:18:25] Adam: I want to end gerrymandering.
[0:18:25 – 0:18:26] Erik: Okay, yeah.
[0:18:27 – 0:18:28] Adam: Let’s get serious.
[0:18:28 – 0:18:29] Adam: Let’s get serious.
[0:18:29 – 0:18:30] Adam: All right.
[0:18:31 – 0:18:31] Adam: That’s a start.
[0:18:31 – 0:18:32] Adam: That’s a good start.
[0:18:32 – 0:18:35] Adam: Did I mention I want all national parks and the boundary waters to be free?
[0:18:37 – 0:18:38] Adam: Just fund them.
[0:18:38 – 0:18:41] Adam: Again, stop buying so many bombs you don’t need them.
[0:18:41 – 0:18:42] Adam: Sure, or yeah.
[0:18:42 – 0:18:43] Adam: Buy more park passes for people.
[0:18:43 – 0:18:46] Erik: As long as they’re still being funded, yeah, then I don’t care.
[0:18:46 – 0:18:47] Adam: They’re still being funded fully, yeah.
[0:18:48 – 0:18:49] Adam: Actually, let’s add some funding.
[0:18:49 – 0:18:49] Adam: Okay.
[0:18:49 – 0:18:53] Adam: Double the funding for the park service and for education.
[0:18:53 – 0:18:55] Adam: Let’s double the funding for education, too.
[0:18:55 – 0:18:55] Adam: How about that?
[0:18:56 – 0:18:56] Erik: Here we go.
[0:18:56 – 0:18:59] Erik: This is a light rollout of our 2024 platform.
[0:18:59 – 0:19:05] Adam: We’ll just sell a few more bombers off, and maybe we don’t need to get rid of a couple submarines.
[0:19:05 – 0:19:06] Adam: We’ll get education funded.
[0:19:06 – 0:19:07] Adam: Who cares?
[0:19:07 – 0:19:08] Erik: Yeah, I mean, you can’t even see them.
[0:19:08 – 0:19:10] Erik: Nobody goes to a submarine show.
[0:19:11 – 0:19:14] Erik: Keep the planes around for the low-flying blue angels.
[0:19:14 – 0:19:15] Adam: The whole thing’s a show.
[0:19:15 – 0:19:17] Adam: Nobody’s fighting nobody.
[0:19:17 – 0:19:19] Adam: The whole global economy’s connected.
[0:19:19 – 0:19:20] Adam: Nobody’s going to war anymore.
[0:19:20 – 0:19:21] Adam: Come on.
[0:19:21 – 0:19:22] Adam: It’s all a show.
[0:19:22 – 0:19:26] Erik: But, yeah, I mean, at least we can get rid of the things that nobody can see.
[0:19:26 – 0:19:30] Erik: Nobody’s going to notice a couple of submarines missing.
[0:19:30 – 0:19:32] Adam: I think Grimace probably is some sort of submersible.
[0:19:33 – 0:19:33] Erik: Oh, yeah.
[0:19:33 – 0:19:36] Erik: I thought you were going to say he was some kind of like a Soviet agent.
[0:19:36 – 0:19:37] Adam: No.
[0:19:37 – 0:19:39] Adam: I mean, maybe he is a communist.
[0:19:39 – 0:19:39] Adam: So what?
[0:19:40 – 0:19:41] Adam: Is there something wrong with it?
[0:19:41 – 0:19:42] Erik: Communism?
[0:19:42 – 0:19:42] Erik: Yeah.
[0:19:42 – 0:19:43] Erik: I think there’s probably some pitfalls.
[0:19:43 – 0:19:44] Erik: Probably is.
[0:19:45 – 0:19:48] Adam: You know, but it’s like, oh, it’s, you know, I don’t know.
[0:19:49 – 0:19:50] Adam: So what if somebody wants to be a communist?
[0:19:51 – 0:19:53] Erik: I don’t really care if somebody wants to be a communist.
[0:19:53 – 0:19:54] Adam: Yeah, good luck with that.
[0:19:57 – 0:19:58] Adam: So those are my demands.
[0:19:58 – 0:19:59] Adam: How do we get to these?
[0:19:59 – 0:20:00] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:20:00 – 0:20:01] Adam: This is the end of the list for now.
[0:20:02 – 0:20:02] Adam: For now.
[0:20:02 – 0:20:03] Adam: For now.
[0:20:03 – 0:20:04] Erik: You never know when we can expand on the list.
[0:20:04 – 0:20:05] Adam: Would you like a milk with that?
[0:20:07 – 0:20:08] Adam: Please pull forward, sir.
[0:20:08 – 0:20:09] Erik: I’m good.
[0:20:09 – 0:20:10] Erik: No milk for me.
[0:20:10 – 0:20:13] Adam: Ma’am, you got to get a couple extra milks.
[0:20:14 – 0:20:17] Erik: Does anybody listening even know what we’re talking about this week?
[0:20:17 – 0:20:18] Erik: Yes, you do.
[0:20:18 – 0:20:19] Erik: You’ve been following along.
[0:20:20 – 0:20:22] Erik: It’s part two of six.
[0:20:23 – 0:20:24] Erik: Live from Karachi.
[0:20:25 – 0:20:27] Erik: Question of the year.
[0:20:27 – 0:20:34] Erik: Boundary Waters full-on conversation starting now.
[0:20:34 – 0:20:34] Erik: Right now.
[0:20:35 – 0:20:36] Erik: Where’d you go?
[0:20:36 – 0:20:37] Erik: What did you see?
[0:20:37 – 0:20:38] Erik: We’re reading responses.
[0:20:38 – 0:20:47] Adam: Did you retrieve a lure that you had lost years ago and then cast it out and caught a large pike on your first cast?
[0:20:47 – 0:20:47] Erik: Yeah.
[0:20:47 – 0:21:00] Erik: Are you jealous that you didn’t have as profound of an experience as Eagle 98MN to elicit a free-shipped handmade fillet knife for next year?
[0:21:01 – 0:21:03] Erik: Or maybe this winter, depending.
[0:21:04 – 0:21:06] Erik: Well, you’re just going to have to get better at those responses.
[0:21:07 – 0:21:08] Erik: And that’s up to you.
[0:21:09 – 0:21:13] Erik: The signed Ronald Shara gavel does not lie.
[0:21:13 – 0:21:15] Erik: And it spoke last week.
[0:21:16 – 0:21:23] Adam: Yeah, I’ve been asking anybody I know who has listened to the episode, like, do you agree with the judge’s decision or not?
[0:21:24 – 0:21:27] Adam: And everybody, again, was unanimous so far.
[0:21:27 – 0:21:29] Adam: Or, you know, they just didn’t want to disagree with me.
[0:21:30 – 0:21:38] Erik: Yeah, so one person just nodded because they actually did listen, and then the other 12, just out of fear, said, yes, I agree.
[0:21:38 – 0:21:39] Erik: Yes, judge.
[0:21:40 – 0:21:41] Adam: Yes, judge.
[0:21:41 – 0:21:41] Adam: Yes.
[0:21:42 – 0:21:43] Adam: Don’t touch the vest.
[0:21:44 – 0:21:45] Adam: Get your hands off this thing.
[0:21:46 – 0:21:46] Erik: That’s your honor?
[0:21:47 – 0:21:48] Adam: Your honor?
[0:21:49 – 0:21:51] Adam: I need to get a wig for next week’s episode.
[0:21:51 – 0:21:52] Adam: Don’t judge.
[0:21:53 – 0:21:54] Adam: I don’t think there’s any judging.
[0:21:54 – 0:21:54] Adam: Who knows?
[0:21:54 – 0:21:56] Adam: I hope that’s not a recurring character.
[0:21:56 – 0:21:58] Erik: Well, we’re always judging.
[0:22:00 – 0:22:07] Erik: DirtyDadBot523, there’s your 20 minutes of beer drinking.
[0:22:08 – 0:22:09] Adam: Time for the meat.
[0:22:09 – 0:22:11] Erik: All these guys do is drink beer.
[0:22:12 – 0:22:13] Adam: Well, they keep sending them.
[0:22:13 – 0:22:13] Erik: Yeah.
[0:22:14 – 0:22:15] Erik: We blame you.
[0:22:15 – 0:22:17] Adam: Yeah, and you don’t need to worry about what you’re sending.
[0:22:17 – 0:22:19] Adam: We know how to handle our barley wine.
[0:22:20 – 0:22:22] Adam: Example number one, we didn’t finish it.
[0:22:22 – 0:22:23] Adam: It was too strong.
[0:22:23 – 0:22:23] Adam: We knew it.
[0:22:24 – 0:22:24] Erik: Yeah.
[0:22:24 – 0:22:25] Adam: Set it aside.
[0:22:25 – 0:22:26] Adam: For later.
[0:22:26 – 0:22:28] Adam: Drink it in the morning before going for a ski.
[0:22:28 – 0:22:28] Adam: That’s safe.
[0:22:29 – 0:22:29] Erik: Maple syrup.
[0:22:36 – 0:22:39] Erik: That’s a hard stop right there.
[0:22:40 – 0:22:41] Erik: Dirty dad bod.
[0:22:41 – 0:22:42] Erik: This is a bit of a read.
[0:22:44 – 0:22:51] Erik: Hope your throat, your gullet, your speaking parts are all warmed up and ready to go.
[0:22:51 – 0:22:55] Adam: Goosed a large black coffee before we started.
[0:22:55 – 0:22:58] Adam: Goosed a large black coffee.
[0:23:00 – 0:23:00] Erik: No milk.
[0:23:01 – 0:23:02] Erik: No, zero milk.
[0:23:03 – 0:23:08] Erik: I was able to squeeze in two trips this year, which were highlights of the summer.
[0:23:09 – 0:23:13] Erik: They were both great, filled with luck, and seasoned with some weirdness.
[0:23:13 – 0:23:16] Erik: But that’s what any good trip should contain, right?
[0:23:17 – 0:23:18] Erik: The first trip began with a trip
[0:23:20 – 0:23:23] Erik: up to Clearwater just after Independence Day.
[0:23:24 – 0:23:32] Erik: We got to experience a night in the bunkhouse after a solid meal of pizza at Hungry Jack Lodge and a gorgeous sunset viewing from Honeymoon Bluff.
[0:23:32 – 0:23:45] Erik: The next morning, I dropped off art supplies, enjoyed a pancake breakfast, and we entered the park for a four-night trip accompanied by first-time friends who wanted limited portages with maximum returns.
[0:23:45 – 0:23:46] Erik: Wow.
[0:23:47 – 0:23:47] Erik: We won it all!
[0:23:49 – 0:23:54] Erik: We decided to set up camp on the back bay at Campsite 7 for easy day trips.
[0:23:55 – 0:23:58] Erik: I’m assuming, yes, that sounds like Campsite 7 on Clearwater.
[0:23:59 – 0:24:01] Erik: Seems like a good, yeah, that’s a great base camp spot.
[0:24:01 – 0:24:02] Erik: Go, go back.
[0:24:02 – 0:24:03] Erik: Go, go back.
[0:24:03 – 0:24:08] Erik: Surprisingly, it seemed like we had the whole place to ourselves for the first three days.
[0:24:09 – 0:24:22] Erik: We got in trips up to the Mountain Lake Overlook, Gogebic, Gogebic, and were blessed with a solid two hours at Johnson Falls all to ourselves on a Friday afternoon before any other groups showed up.
[0:24:23 – 0:24:28] Erik: We were lucky to have fires as we found out after returning that the fire ban had been implemented on our last day.
[0:24:29 – 0:24:36] Erik: We would have been screwed without a campfire as we learned that cooking dried black beans takes three hours.
[0:24:36 – 0:24:37] Adam: At least, yeah.
[0:24:37 – 0:24:37] Erik: Yeah.
[0:24:38 – 0:24:39] Erik: You got to soak them, too.
[0:24:39 – 0:24:40] Erik: You soak them overnight.
[0:24:40 – 0:24:45] Erik: We’ll say, though, hash browns, black beans, and hot sauce is now my go-to breakfast meal.
[0:24:46 – 0:24:48] Field Mic: Black beans, peppers, and hot sauce.
[0:24:48 – 0:24:50] Erik: I just mouth-mixed dried beans.
[0:24:50 – 0:24:52] Erik: Just three hours in there, just mixing.
[0:24:53 – 0:24:55] Adam: Put them in the mouth before you go to bed.
[0:24:55 – 0:24:56] Adam: There you go.
[0:24:56 – 0:24:59] Adam: Then in the morning, you spit them in the pot and boil them.
[0:24:59 – 0:25:01] Erik: Yeah, just a night-mouth bean soak.
[0:25:01 – 0:25:02] Adam: Overnight bean soak.
[0:25:02 – 0:25:02] Adam: Mm-hmm.
[0:25:04 – 0:25:05] Adam: Oh, no.
[0:25:05 – 0:25:06] Adam: I used to dip.
[0:25:06 – 0:25:07] Erik: Oh, no.
[0:25:07 – 0:25:09] Erik: Just put a few of them between the teeth and the gums.
[0:25:09 – 0:25:10] Erik: Mm-hmm.
[0:25:10 – 0:25:14] Erik: Just a little old Copenhagen skull, wintergreen style.
[0:25:14 – 0:25:14] Erik: Mouth boilers.
[0:25:15 – 0:25:16] Erik: Mouth light boilers.
[0:25:16 – 0:25:16] Erik: Mouth simmerings.
[0:25:16 – 0:25:17] Adam: This is interesting.
[0:25:19 – 0:25:19] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:25:19 – 0:25:19] Adam: Is it?
[0:25:20 – 0:25:20] Adam: Yeah.
[0:25:20 – 0:25:20] Adam: Yeah.
[0:25:20 – 0:25:21] Adam: I think it is.
[0:25:22 – 0:25:24] Erik: You’d wake up with an aspirated bean in your lung.
[0:25:25 – 0:25:26] Adam: What if it got too big?
[0:25:26 – 0:25:27] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:25:27 – 0:25:30] Adam: And then grew, and it was like a reverse Gulliver’s Travel.
[0:25:30 – 0:25:30] Adam: Yeah.
[0:25:31 – 0:25:32] Adam: We don’t want that.
[0:25:33 – 0:25:36] Erik: I don’t even know where a reverse Gulliver’s travel would be.
[0:25:36 – 0:25:38] Erik: Yeah, where the bean is big and you’re little?
[0:25:38 – 0:25:41] Erik: The bean has you tied down somehow?
[0:25:41 – 0:25:44] Adam: No, you tie the bean down because it got too big.
[0:25:46 – 0:25:47] Erik: Yeah, that makes sense.
[0:25:47 – 0:25:49] Adam: This bean was soaked too nicely.
[0:25:49 – 0:25:50] Erik: Too nicely.
[0:25:50 – 0:25:51] Erik: All right.
[0:25:51 – 0:25:53] Erik: We’re still on this comment.
[0:25:53 – 0:25:54] Adam: I’m sorry.
[0:25:54 – 0:25:54] Erik: It’s fine.
[0:25:55 – 0:25:55] Erik: Apologies.
[0:25:55 – 0:25:56] Erik: You just seemed like you were ready to move on.
[0:25:56 – 0:25:57] Adam: I was.
[0:25:57 – 0:25:58] Adam: All right.
[0:25:58 – 0:25:59] Adam: But I’m not now.
[0:25:59 – 0:26:00] Adam: I’m back.
[0:26:00 – 0:26:01] Erik: This is part two of six, my friend.
[0:26:03 – 0:26:08] Erik: The second trip launched in mid-August from La Tourelle’s on Moose Lake.
[0:26:10 – 0:26:11] Erik: What did we go through?
[0:26:12 – 0:26:12] Adam: Hall & Oates.
[0:26:12 – 0:26:13] Adam: Williams & Hall.
[0:26:13 – 0:26:14] Adam: Hall & Oates.
[0:26:14 – 0:26:14] Erik: That’s right.
[0:26:16 – 0:26:17] Erik: Best outfitter name ever.
[0:26:18 – 0:26:18] Adam: For sure.
[0:26:18 – 0:26:19] Adam: Yeah, it’s classiest.
[0:26:20 – 0:26:21] Adam: At least it’s the classiest.
[0:26:21 – 0:26:22] Erik: Prestige.
[0:26:22 – 0:26:23] Adam: The prestige.
[0:26:23 – 0:26:32] Erik: We had initially planned on heading to Wind Lake in the eastern bay of Basswood, but high winds made us turn east towards the Ensign Metropolis.
[0:26:33 – 0:26:42] Erik: We took the first campsite on the island just past the Splash Ensign Portage and were greeted by a shredded food bag sitting in the latrine.
[0:26:43 – 0:26:44] Erik: Oh, sorry, behind the latrine.
[0:26:46 – 0:26:48] Erik: So they were camped out on Sif Island?
[0:26:49 – 0:26:49] Adam: You know it.
[0:26:49 – 0:26:50] Adam: Dang.
[0:26:50 – 0:26:53] Adam: Or was it the one past the island, I think they said.
[0:26:55 – 0:27:01] Erik: Yeah, the first campsite on the island just past the splash to Ensign Portage, which I think is the big one.
[0:27:02 – 0:27:02] Erik: First one, yeah.
[0:27:03 – 0:27:04] Erik: Riddled with red dots.
[0:27:05 – 0:27:06] Adam: Yeah, you got it.
[0:27:06 – 0:27:13] Erik: However, our newly acquired bag-hanging skills in response to the Forest Service mandate saved us from any unwanted visitors.
[0:27:14 – 0:27:17] Erik: Thank you, Forest Service.
[0:27:17 – 0:27:18] Adam: Congratulations!
[0:27:19 – 0:27:19] Erik: Yes!
[0:27:20 – 0:27:24] Erik: On our first day, we trekked out on a day-loop paddle through Ashigan.
[0:27:25 – 0:27:26] Erik: You can trust us again.
[0:27:27 – 0:27:29] Erik: Boot and back into Ensign.
[0:27:29 – 0:27:36] Erik: We nearly flipped our canoes in the waves and wind before getting VIP tickets to UFC gull fight on Ashigan.
[0:27:37 – 0:27:39] Erik: That was an utter curb stopping.
[0:27:39 – 0:27:40] Erik: Oh my.
[0:27:41 – 0:27:41] Erik: Whoa.
[0:27:42 – 0:27:43] Erik: Gull on gull action.
[0:27:45 – 0:27:46] Erik: For all the glory.
[0:27:46 – 0:27:47] Erik: For all the gull glory.
[0:27:47 – 0:27:48] Erik: Gull glory.
[0:27:50 – 0:27:52] Adam: This is a great comment.
[0:27:52 – 0:27:53] Adam: How did this one not win?
[0:27:53 – 0:27:53] Adam: Okay.
[0:27:53 – 0:27:54] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:27:54 – 0:27:54] Adam: Gull glory.
[0:27:55 – 0:27:56] Erik: Gull glory.
[0:27:58 – 0:27:58] Erik: Dang.
[0:27:58 – 0:28:00] Erik: I want to know what this gull fight was all about.
[0:28:01 – 0:28:02] Adam: Probably over a fish.
[0:28:03 – 0:28:04] Erik: Come for our trust.
[0:28:04 – 0:28:06] Adam: Stay for the curb stomping.
[0:28:07 – 0:28:26] Erik: Upon our approach to swing Ebenagi Portage, I nearly lost my paddling partner into the mucky depths, who sank all the way up to his neck in water and muck after getting out of the canoe to pull it up to the landing.
[0:28:27 – 0:28:27] Erik: Yeesh.
[0:28:28 – 0:28:36] Erik: Thankfully, he was able to pull himself out of it by grabbing onto a plank dock extended out over the landing.
[0:28:38 – 0:28:39] Erik: Where is this?
[0:28:39 – 0:28:41] Erik: Swing to Abenoji Portage?
[0:28:41 – 0:28:43] Adam: Yeah, it’s south of Gibson there.
[0:28:43 – 0:28:45] Adam: South and west of Gibson.
[0:28:45 – 0:28:46] Erik: A little dock action down there?
[0:28:47 – 0:28:49] Adam: Almost back over to Boot there.
[0:28:50 – 0:28:58] Erik: Had that situation gone even slightly worse, I’d probably be under criminal investigation for his disappearance.
[0:28:59 – 0:29:08] Erik: We enjoyed our final day by doing a day trip down on our campsite beach to soak up the rays and swim.
[0:29:09 – 0:29:21] Erik: However, during peak trip time, a caravan of bobby-manned boats, led by Admiral Rex, pulled up at our landing, proceeding to eat lunch and then call home and talk to their mom.
[0:29:23 – 0:29:24] Adam: Oh, that’s sweet.
[0:29:24 – 0:29:24] Adam: Hey, Mom.
[0:29:25 – 0:29:26] Adam: Just out here in the Baju Islands.
[0:29:26 – 0:29:28] Adam: We’re having such a great time out here having bologna sandwich.
[0:29:29 – 0:29:30] Adam: That’s crazy.
[0:29:30 – 0:29:31] Adam: Some guy’s beach.
[0:29:31 – 0:29:34] Erik: They stayed for over an hour, which is an absolute vibe killer.
[0:29:34 – 0:29:35] Adam: Did they at least make you a sandwich?
[0:29:36 – 0:29:37] Erik: Yeah, what was the interaction like?
[0:29:38 – 0:29:41] Erik: Just like, hey, we’re just going to have lunch at your site here.
[0:29:42 – 0:29:43] Erik: Maybe we’ll stay.
[0:29:43 – 0:29:44] Erik: Maybe we’ll go.
[0:29:44 – 0:29:45] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:29:45 – 0:29:50] Adam: Then you got to just slap your knees at some point and be like, well, I suppose.
[0:29:50 – 0:29:51] Adam: I suppose.
[0:29:51 – 0:29:52] Adam: And then they leave.
[0:29:52 – 0:29:54] Adam: That’s the signal.
[0:29:54 – 0:29:55] Adam: Yeah.
[0:29:56 – 0:30:05] Erik: However, none of us were in a mental state to willingly engage with strangers and try to kick them out, so we just rode out the wave and found enjoyment in the ripples, rocks, and clouds.
[0:30:06 – 0:30:09] Adam: I think I’m reading something into all of this, and I’m going to leave it unsaid.
[0:30:09 – 0:30:10] Erik: Yeah.
[0:30:10 – 0:30:13] Erik: The mental state to not want to address strangers.
[0:30:13 – 0:30:13] Erik: Yeah.
[0:30:14 – 0:30:15] Adam: They don’t want a bologna sandwich.
[0:30:16 – 0:30:18] Adam: They want some peace and quiet.
[0:30:18 – 0:30:26] Erik: 90% of my day-to-day life is not in the mental state to willingly engage with strangers.
[0:30:27 – 0:30:29] Adam: Yeah, agreed.
[0:30:29 – 0:30:36] Erik: All in all, we were extremely lucky to evade the fire ban for the July trip and complete our August trip the weekend before the park closed.
[0:30:37 – 0:30:42] Erik: I don’t think I put on bug spray once during either trip, which was quite astonishing.
[0:30:42 – 0:30:45] Erik: Yeah, it was a bug light summer for sure.
[0:30:45 – 0:30:47] Erik: Yeah, but nausea.
[0:30:47 – 0:30:52] Erik: Honestly, the last episode and a half, I have completely forgotten that the park was closed for like a month.
[0:30:53 – 0:30:54] Adam: Yeah.
[0:30:54 – 0:30:54] Adam: Remember?
[0:30:54 – 0:30:54] Adam: Yeah.
[0:30:55 – 0:30:56] Adam: Let’s wipe that from the memory.
[0:30:57 – 0:30:58] Adam: Don’t need to remember this.
[0:30:58 – 0:31:00] Erik: I’m already looking forward to a couple of trips next year.
[0:31:00 – 0:31:02] Adam: I just deleted a bunch of files from that time.
[0:31:02 – 0:31:03] Erik: Control-Alt.
[0:31:04 – 0:31:05] Adam: Delete.
[0:31:06 – 0:31:06] Erik: Get out of here.
[0:31:07 – 0:31:14] Erik: I’m excited to plan the next trips during the off-season to get through the winter doldrums and the grind of grad school.
[0:31:15 – 0:31:16] Erik: Grad school.
[0:31:16 – 0:31:17] Erik: Keep it up, buddy.
[0:31:19 – 0:31:38] Adam: education should college is free we’re giving away college not giving it away it’s our money give me college give me back and get my master’s let’s do it in what i don’t know yet bomb building wide eyes the eyes are wide i don’t know what he’s talking about guys
[0:31:39 – 0:31:40] Adam: Yeah.
[0:31:40 – 0:31:41] Adam: Free education means free education.
[0:31:42 – 0:31:45] Adam: You can go… Pre-K all the way up to get your doctorate or whatever.
[0:31:45 – 0:31:46] Erik: Well, there is such a thing as… Pay for it.
[0:31:47 – 0:31:49] Erik: Can’t you go… Education is technically free.
[0:31:49 – 0:31:54] Erik: What’s not free is the piece of paper at the end of it saying that you got the education.
[0:31:54 – 0:31:54] Adam: Oh, right.
[0:31:54 – 0:31:54] Adam: Yeah.
[0:31:54 – 0:31:56] Adam: You can go just sit in a class.
[0:31:56 – 0:31:56] Adam: Yeah.
[0:31:56 – 0:31:57] Adam: You can audit.
[0:31:57 – 0:31:57] Adam: Yeah.
[0:31:58 – 0:31:59] Erik: But you can’t be like, oh, I…
[0:32:00 – 0:32:04] Adam: I mean, they have, like, so many college courses on YouTube right at this point.
[0:32:04 – 0:32:06] Adam: You can just go watch the courses and learn.
[0:32:06 – 0:32:06] Adam: Yeah.
[0:32:06 – 0:32:10] Adam: Yeah, you don’t get the credit for knowing it.
[0:32:10 – 0:32:10] Erik: No.
[0:32:11 – 0:32:13] Erik: Well, I mean, just for sitting in on a class, no.
[0:32:14 – 0:32:18] Adam: Tell you what, nobody’s ever – that’s one piece of paper I’ve never been asked to show, my degree.
[0:32:18 – 0:32:18] Adam: Okay.
[0:32:19 – 0:32:21] Adam: They just all assume I’m telling the truth.
[0:32:22 – 0:32:24] Adam: Nobody’s ever checked that, have they?
[0:32:24 – 0:32:25] Erik: Life hack?
[0:32:26 – 0:32:27] Adam: I’ve hired a lot of people.
[0:32:27 – 0:32:31] Adam: I’ve never tried to call them like, hey, so-and-so, actually graduate from there.
[0:32:31 – 0:32:34] Erik: Yeah, especially if it’s like 20-plus years old.
[0:32:34 – 0:32:36] Adam: Nobody’s checking references anymore.
[0:32:36 – 0:32:38] Erik: That name does not ring a bell at all.
[0:32:38 – 0:32:39] Adam: We all got a doctorate.
[0:32:39 – 0:32:44] Adam: We got a doctorate in the bushcraft life.
[0:32:45 – 0:32:50] Erik: Oh, man, that sounds like a great idea for a spinoff.
[0:32:50 – 0:32:51] Erik: It wouldn’t even be a spinoff.
[0:32:51 – 0:32:53] Erik: It could be a standalone podcast.
[0:32:54 – 0:33:06] Erik: Just apply for, like, outrageously underqualified positions and just fabricate your resume and just see how long you can wing, like…
[0:33:07 – 0:33:31] Erik: uh well uh we need a class like d like garbage man uh hiring immediately yeah like yeah i’ve been picking up garbage for years st paul uh i picked up a bunch of garbage out west san antonio you know i know how to operate the levers the gaskets the gauges and then just go from there like oh uh uh we need some registered nurses are needed yeah
[0:33:32 – 0:33:32] Erik: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[0:33:33 – 0:33:33] Erik: I got all that.
[0:33:33 – 0:33:39] Erik: And just see how long you can go before physically harming property or others.
[0:33:40 – 0:33:45] Adam: Yeah, I mean, I got an interview for line supervisor at the Corn Flakes factory.
[0:33:45 – 0:33:45] Erik: Oh.
[0:33:46 – 0:33:48] Adam: And I mean, I got the interview.
[0:33:48 – 0:33:50] Adam: I think it’s looking good.
[0:33:50 – 0:33:53] Adam: But if they offer me the job, I’m just going to not show up on my first day.
[0:33:53 – 0:33:54] Adam: Screw you, Kellogg’s.
[0:33:54 – 0:33:55] Erik: Are you scabbing?
[0:33:55 – 0:33:56] Erik: Yeah.
[0:33:56 – 0:33:56] Erik: No, I’m anti-scabbing.
[0:33:56 – 0:33:57] Adam: Oh, you’re anti-scabbing.
[0:33:57 – 0:33:59] Adam: I’m messing with the scabs.
[0:33:59 – 0:34:00] Erik: Messing with the scabs.
[0:34:00 – 0:34:01] Erik: I’m a scab picker.
[0:34:01 – 0:34:03] Adam: Get out of here, you dirty old scabs.
[0:34:03 – 0:34:04] Erik: That’s what you need to do.
[0:34:04 – 0:34:09] Erik: Everybody should anti-scab by applying for jobs and then just no showing.
[0:34:09 – 0:34:10] Adam: That’s what I’m doing.
[0:34:10 – 0:34:15] Adam: And I fabricated my resume so much that they’re like, hey, you want to be supervisor of the Corn Flakes factory?
[0:34:15 – 0:34:18] Adam: I was like, yeah, I think I could handle that.
[0:34:18 – 0:34:18] Adam: What’s the pay?
[0:34:20 – 0:34:23] Adam: $15 an hour, get bent.
[0:34:23 – 0:34:23] Adam: Get bent.
[0:34:23 – 0:34:24] Adam: Get bent.
[0:34:24 – 0:34:28] Adam: I ain’t showing up in wherever the Corn Flakes factory is for that.
[0:34:29 – 0:34:31] Adam: I’m not getting out of bed for $15 an hour, bud.
[0:34:31 – 0:34:32] Erik: Getting out of bed.
[0:34:32 – 0:34:33] Erik: I’m not even getting out of bed.
[0:34:33 – 0:34:35] Adam: I’m not even going to answer my phone for that.
[0:34:35 – 0:34:38] Adam: I’m not getting out of bed for $15 an hour to make Corn Flakes.
[0:34:38 – 0:34:41] Adam: Delicious Corn Flakes.
[0:34:41 – 0:34:44] Erik: I’m not even brushing the flakes out of my eyebrows for $15 an hour.
[0:34:44 – 0:34:50] Adam: So, yeah, anyways, you know, I think the interview is going to probably go smashing.
[0:34:50 – 0:34:53] Adam: And then I’m just not, you know, I’m a big, yeah, I’ll be there.
[0:34:53 – 0:34:54] Adam: Don’t show up.
[0:34:54 – 0:34:56] Adam: Then they got to go and do a bunch of more interviews.
[0:34:57 – 0:34:58] Adam: Anti-scabbing.
[0:34:58 – 0:34:59] Adam: All right, next up on the show.
[0:35:02 – 0:35:03] Adam: This beer’s going down pretty good, Eric.
[0:35:04 – 0:35:06] Adam: Next up on the show, musky eater.
[0:35:08 – 0:35:13] Adam: Fun fact, pregnant women are not allowed to eat musky.
[0:35:13 – 0:35:16] Erik: Why would anybody want to eat musky, pregnant or otherwise?
[0:35:17 – 0:35:18] Adam: You’re allowed to eat whatever you want.
[0:35:18 – 0:35:20] Adam: This is still America last time I checked.
[0:35:21 – 0:35:21] Adam: Wow.
[0:35:21 – 0:35:23] Adam: And you can eat a muskie if you want.
[0:35:23 – 0:35:29] Adam: But I think the problem is now, like, don’t quote me on this, but I believe the minimum is, like, 50 inches on a muskie these days.
[0:35:30 – 0:35:35] Adam: Back in the day, you know, you could keep, like, a 30-inch muskie and, sure, eat that.
[0:35:35 – 0:35:37] Adam: Sounds like a disgusting piece of meat.
[0:35:37 – 0:35:40] Adam: But nowadays it’s like, well, why would you want to eat a 50-inch muskie?
[0:35:40 – 0:35:41] Adam: That’s absurd.
[0:35:42 – 0:35:44] Erik: Here’s a 30-year-old chunk of old flabby.
[0:35:45 – 0:35:45] Adam: Literally 30% mercury.
[0:35:45 – 0:35:45] Adam: Yeah.
[0:35:47 – 0:36:10] Adam: yeah you don’t want that nobody wants it but um i have no problem with me i have no problem with anybody eating a musky you go ahead and do it well you do whatever you want to do better than keeping it and just stuffing it sticking it above the mantle shove a bunch of sawdust in it and spray it with a lacquer yeah hanging above the pool table right yeah great it looks great in the game room
[0:36:12 – 0:36:17] Adam: Thank you, Musk Eater, and you’ve got five boxes of wine, it looks like.
[0:36:18 – 0:36:19] Adam: Let’s get into it.
[0:36:20 – 0:36:21] Adam: Trip one, it didn’t happen.
[0:36:22 – 0:36:24] Adam: Ice was going out, and we missed the window.
[0:36:24 – 0:36:25] Adam: All right, fair enough.
[0:36:26 – 0:36:31] Adam: Trip two, I grew up to bedtime stories from my dad telling me about great trips and bear encounters.
[0:36:32 – 0:36:38] Adam: So I brought him back after a 40-some-odd-year hiatus with my seven-year-old for a quick two-nighter in June.
[0:36:39 – 0:36:57] Adam: saw bill to beth the lady chain nice lots of rain and wind but the company was the best i’ve ever had trip three missing link to little sag gillis and out brandt hey i know that route is that the reverse helix
[0:36:58 – 0:36:59] Adam: I think it’s the Helix Helix.
[0:36:59 – 0:37:00] Adam: Helix Helix.
[0:37:00 – 0:37:06] Adam: First line in the water in my lake trout career happened on Little Sag, and I accidentally caught a perfect eater.
[0:37:06 – 0:37:07] Adam: Dinner was had.
[0:37:08 – 0:37:12] Adam: The views were amazing from a small but elevated island at dusk.
[0:37:12 – 0:37:14] Erik: That sounds like every campsite on Little Sag.
[0:37:14 – 0:37:14] Erik: It does.
[0:37:14 – 0:37:15] Erik: Small but elevated.
[0:37:16 – 0:37:16] Erik: Beautiful.
[0:37:17 – 0:37:22] Adam: As we were packing the next morning, we met Mark, the game warden.
[0:37:23 – 0:37:24] Erik: Do-do-do-do.
[0:37:27 – 0:37:29] Adam: And his very pleasant friends.
[0:37:29 – 0:37:29] Adam: Oh.
[0:37:30 – 0:37:37] Adam: Our early morning visitors seemed impatient with us, but we had just woke and were startled by the wilderness guards in camp.
[0:37:37 – 0:37:41] Adam: After stern questioning, they paddled off, as did we shortly after.
[0:37:42 – 0:37:42] Adam: Okay.
[0:37:43 – 0:37:44] Erik: What was the stern question?
[0:37:44 – 0:37:46] Adam: I just saw God up on your ridge.
[0:37:48 – 0:37:48] Adam: Not bad.
[0:37:49 – 0:37:49] Adam: Not bad.
[0:37:51 – 0:37:52] Erik: Not bad at all.
[0:37:52 – 0:37:53] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:37:53 – 0:37:58] Adam: No details were given on the Stern questioning, but apparently they weren’t arrested.
[0:37:59 – 0:38:00] Erik: I think it’s the first thing you learn.
[0:38:01 – 0:38:01] Erik: That would be another one.
[0:38:02 – 0:38:04] Erik: Just apply for a job as a policeman.
[0:38:04 – 0:38:05] Adam: There you go.
[0:38:06 – 0:38:13] Erik: Probably the thing you learn on the first day of any position of authority is just got to be stern.
[0:38:13 – 0:38:17] Erik: Just don’t allow them any bit of personality.
[0:38:17 – 0:38:18] Erik: Be stern.
[0:38:18 – 0:38:21] Erik: Make them feel like they are doing something illegal, even though they’re not.
[0:38:21 – 0:38:21] Field Mic: At all times.
[0:38:22 – 0:38:22] Erik: Yeah.
[0:38:23 – 0:38:25] Adam: Can you write your own name?
[0:38:26 – 0:38:27] Adam: Yeah, you can.
[0:38:27 – 0:38:28] Erik: What is that supposed to mean?
[0:38:30 – 0:38:33] Adam: No, I’m just saying that’s the interview.
[0:38:33 – 0:38:35] Adam: Can you write your name and fire this gun?
[0:38:36 – 0:38:36] Adam: You’re hired.
[0:38:37 – 0:38:40] Erik: See right here, this little backwards C?
[0:38:40 – 0:38:42] Erik: That’s where the finger goes when you want something to die.
[0:38:43 – 0:38:44] Adam: Bangity bang bang.
[0:38:45 – 0:38:46] Adam: Wait, this story’s not over.
[0:38:46 – 0:38:46] Erik: No.
[0:38:47 – 0:38:48] Adam: Side tangent, over.
[0:38:50 – 0:38:51] Adam: What was the questioning about?
[0:38:51 – 0:38:51] Adam: Nobody needs to know.
[0:38:52 – 0:38:58] Adam: We headed for Gillis and found the only open site was on the western side on a burnt point island on Fisher.
[0:38:59 – 0:39:00] Adam: It’s a point.
[0:39:00 – 0:39:06] Adam: Ended up being a pretty nice site with the sound of running water the first day and great smoky views.
[0:39:06 – 0:39:08] Adam: Going out, Brant didn’t seem that bad.
[0:39:08 – 0:39:16] Adam: Only encountered one portager carrying wood food boxes crying and getting maybe a less than optimistic pep talk from their friend.
[0:39:17 – 0:39:18] Adam: Here’s the pep talk.
[0:39:19 – 0:39:22] Adam: If you think this is hard, it’s going to be a long two weeks.
[0:39:23 – 0:39:24] Adam: Don’t say that on Portage 2.
[0:39:24 – 0:39:25] Adam: Yikes.
[0:39:25 – 0:39:27] Erik: Yeah, I’m just going to.
[0:39:27 – 0:39:28] Adam: Wooden food boxes.
[0:39:29 – 0:39:29] Adam: I’ve never seen this.
[0:39:29 – 0:39:32] Adam: I’ve never seen wooden wood food boxes.
[0:39:32 – 0:39:33] Erik: Really?
[0:39:33 – 0:39:33] Erik: I’ve seen them before.
[0:39:34 – 0:39:36] Erik: They’re a little aggressive and a little much.
[0:39:37 – 0:39:40] Adam: They, like, you literally nail together, and you got to, like, pry bar them open.
[0:39:40 – 0:39:41] Adam: I don’t know about the pry bar.
[0:39:41 – 0:39:42] Adam: Time for our rations.
[0:39:42 – 0:39:43] Adam: Oh, boy, Eric.
[0:39:43 – 0:39:44] Adam: It’s mealtime.
[0:39:45 – 0:39:50] Erik: Yeah, I don’t know if it’s quite like the old man opening up the box in a Christmas story to find the leg lamp, but.
[0:39:50 – 0:39:51] Erik: Yeah, it’s like that.
[0:39:51 – 0:39:52] Adam: No.
[0:39:52 – 0:39:53] Adam: Except for it’s a bunch of canned sardines.
[0:39:54 – 0:39:56] Adam: Cran, wrenching open the top.
[0:39:56 – 0:39:56] Erik: Canned meat.
[0:39:57 – 0:40:00] Erik: I think it’s just, like, a nicely made, like, if you know, like.
[0:40:01 – 0:40:01] Erik: Sounds heavy.
[0:40:01 – 0:40:03] Erik: Yeah, it is heavy.
[0:40:03 – 0:40:05] Erik: Like a cedar strip canoe, except a food box.
[0:40:05 – 0:40:05] Erik: Two-week trip.
[0:40:06 – 0:40:08] Adam: Yeah, well, if you’re going on a two-week trip, you might want a wooden box.
[0:40:08 – 0:40:10] Erik: They also fit into canoes a lot better.
[0:40:11 – 0:40:11] Erik: Yeah, but…
[0:40:12 – 0:40:13] Erik: They don’t portage very well, though.
[0:40:14 – 0:40:16] Adam: And they’re not bear-proof, no.
[0:40:16 – 0:40:17] Erik: And they’re definitely made of wood.
[0:40:18 – 0:40:20] Adam: Trip four, but actually three.
[0:40:21 – 0:40:24] Adam: Surfed across Snowbank and Crazy Rollers with a great group.
[0:40:25 – 0:40:26] Adam: Had kek to ourselves.
[0:40:26 – 0:40:27] Adam: Caught for the cycle.
[0:40:28 – 0:40:31] Adam: Paddled through the surprisingly quiet Ensign Zoo and out.
[0:40:32 – 0:40:34] Adam: Cheers to 2021 and more in 2022.
[0:40:34 – 0:40:35] Adam: Huzzah.
[0:40:35 – 0:40:35] Adam: Huzzah.
[0:40:36 – 0:40:36] Adam: Huzzah.
[0:40:37 – 0:40:37] Adam: All right.
[0:40:37 – 0:40:38] Adam: Thank you.
[0:40:38 – 0:40:39] Adam: That was pretty good.
[0:40:39 – 0:40:41] Erik: If you think this is rough, just wait until…
[0:40:43 – 0:40:44] Erik: It’s like not a great pep talk.
[0:40:45 – 0:40:46] Adam: That’s the worst pep talk I’ve ever heard.
[0:40:46 – 0:40:50] Erik: If you think this is bad, it’s going to be a long two weeks, my friend.
[0:40:50 – 0:40:53] Adam: I’m going to go doubles here.
[0:40:54 – 0:40:57] Erik: What was the part of the end of that comment?
[0:40:58 – 0:40:59] Erik: They did what for the cycle?
[0:41:00 – 0:41:02] Adam: Oh, they caught for the cycle.
[0:41:02 – 0:41:04] Erik: Oh, is that the Grand Slam?
[0:41:04 – 0:41:04] Adam: Yeah, Grand Slam.
[0:41:05 – 0:41:09] Adam: Somebody last week claimed they had five fish from camp, five different species.
[0:41:09 – 0:41:12] Adam: And I want to know what that fifth species was, by the way.
[0:41:12 – 0:41:13] Adam: Is that what a cycle is?
[0:41:13 – 0:41:15] Adam: Is it a green-eared sunfish, perhaps?
[0:41:16 – 0:41:19] Adam: Yeah, the cycle is going, yeah, you get all four of the Grand Slam.
[0:41:19 – 0:41:21] Erik: Well, four is a Grand Slam.
[0:41:21 – 0:41:22] Adam: Right, they caught the cycle.
[0:41:22 – 0:41:28] Adam: But I’m just saying the caller last week said they got five species from camp.
[0:41:28 – 0:41:28] Adam: So what’s that called?
[0:41:28 – 0:41:29] Adam: Sure.
[0:41:29 – 0:41:30] Erik: Well, that’s what I’m wondering.
[0:41:30 – 0:41:32] Erik: There’s a few different things happening here.
[0:41:33 – 0:41:44] Erik: The Grand Slam, in the Stu Osthoff lore of fishing terminologies, is smallmouth bass, northern pike, walleye, and lake trout, right?
[0:41:45 – 0:41:48] Adam: Yeah, I am going to have to agree with your police work there, Lou.
[0:41:48 – 0:41:49] Erik: So then what is the cycle?
[0:41:50 – 0:41:51] Adam: The cycle is those four.
[0:41:51 – 0:41:53] Erik: But that’s different in baseball.
[0:41:53 – 0:41:53] Adam: Yeah, I know.
[0:41:54 – 0:41:56] Erik: So, I know you know, but I’m just saying, like, why…
[0:41:56 – 0:41:57] Adam: I don’t know, maybe I’m wrong.
[0:41:57 – 0:41:58] Adam: Muskeeter, hello?
[0:41:59 – 0:41:59] Adam: Are you out there?
[0:41:59 – 0:42:01] Adam: Is the cycle something different?
[0:42:01 – 0:42:02] Adam: Is the cycle different than the Grand Slam?
[0:42:02 – 0:42:05] Erik: Because the cycle is way harder than a… Well, that’s maybe debatable.
[0:42:06 – 0:42:09] Erik: In baseball, I think a cycle is way harder than a Grand Slam.
[0:42:09 – 0:42:10] Erik: Yeah.
[0:42:10 – 0:42:11] Erik: Because a Grand Slam is just a home run.
[0:42:11 – 0:42:12] Erik: Right.
[0:42:12 – 0:42:13] Erik: That three other people have done the work.
[0:42:13 – 0:42:13] Erik: That’s one thing.
[0:42:14 – 0:42:14] Adam: Right.
[0:42:14 – 0:42:15] Adam: That helped by your friends.
[0:42:15 – 0:42:16] Adam: Yeah.
[0:42:16 – 0:42:17] Adam: With a little help from your friends.
[0:42:17 – 0:42:17] Adam: Yeah.
[0:42:18 – 0:42:19] Adam: The cycle is four…
[0:42:20 – 0:42:49] Erik: things that are very tough to do in one day yeah and then also what is five different species from camp yeah what’s the fifth species i know it’s not the green-eared sunfish but is it like a rock bass or was it a weird bream and i also don’t know perhaps maybe a maybe a weird bream maybe a sucker why don’t why doesn’t hockey or anything that that elicits a name for three goals why does it just stop there right there should be one for four
[0:42:49 – 0:42:52] Erik: Yeah, it’s just hat trick and then, oh, four goals, five goals.
[0:42:52 – 0:42:53] Erik: Super hat trick.
[0:42:53 – 0:42:54] Erik: Super hat trick.
[0:42:56 – 0:42:57] Adam: Helmet trip.
[0:42:58 – 0:42:59] Erik: Je suis du Poussens.
[0:43:00 – 0:43:02] Erik: You should give us a little help on that one.
[0:43:02 – 0:43:05] Erik: Is there a name for four goals in French?
[0:43:05 – 0:43:07] Adam: French?
[0:43:07 – 0:43:08] Adam: France.
[0:43:08 – 0:43:16] Adam: Yeah, I don’t know if Poussens is going to help us out after the cruel judgment of the judge of Karachi.
[0:43:17 – 0:43:19] Erik: Yeah, I don’t know if the cruise.
[0:43:19 – 0:43:20] Adam: There ain’t no prize for second place.
[0:43:20 – 0:43:21] Adam: Sorry there.
[0:43:21 – 0:43:22] Adam: Cruise judgment.
[0:43:22 – 0:43:23] Adam: Blink.
[0:43:23 – 0:43:24] Adam: God, all you got to do is blink.
[0:43:25 – 0:43:25] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:43:25 – 0:43:29] Adam Field Mic: My Tom Hardy is getting better and better.
[0:43:29 – 0:43:31] Adam: Yeah, I guess.
[0:43:31 – 0:43:32] Adam: The colder the weather gets.
[0:43:33 – 0:43:33] Adam: Yeah.
[0:43:33 – 0:43:37] Adam: The more mist, the more freezing mist in the air, the better my Tom Hardy is.
[0:43:38 – 0:43:38] Adam Field Mic: Blink glass.
[0:43:40 – 0:43:44] Adam: Next up on the show, I’m in too deep.
[0:43:45 – 0:44:09] Adam: nice i’m in too deep that’s delicious five boxes of wine i don’t know if eric’s already got you that’s why i like that name i’m not allowed to updo it this is i uh i’m not allowed to upload you’re definitely not allowed to second computer i don’t how many computers do you have eric yeah how many computers does the show have i’m in too deep uh first time caller
[0:44:09 – 0:44:10] Erik: First time?
[0:44:10 – 0:44:11] Erik: Long time.
[0:44:11 – 0:44:11] Adam: I love it.
[0:44:12 – 0:44:18] Adam: I loaded up my new-to-me Min 2 and my 10-year-old for a round-boy trip.
[0:44:19 – 0:44:23] Adam: A round-boy trip and discovered that he seemed to be an actual voyager.
[0:44:24 – 0:44:24] Adam: Nice.
[0:44:24 – 0:44:24] Adam: At 10?
[0:44:25 – 0:44:25] Adam: Yeah.
[0:44:26 – 0:44:31] Adam: Beautiful weather, manageable bugs, mostly tailwinds and lake trout, and burbot over the fire.
[0:44:31 – 0:44:32] Adam: Maybe the burbot’s the fifth.
[0:44:34 – 0:44:38] Adam: The two-mile portage out of Rose was conquered without complaints.
[0:44:38 – 0:44:47] Adam: We crossed big water without difficulty, camped on Rose, Mountain, Pine, and Clearwater, crossed Moose Lake, the Fowls, and up the Royal River.
[0:44:47 – 0:44:49] Adam: The little voyageur only had two meltdowns.
[0:44:50 – 0:44:56] Adam: One was when a gorgeous lake trout and a smallie teamed up to break the stringer and make a clean getaway.
[0:44:56 – 0:44:57] Adam: No.
[0:45:01 – 0:45:02] Adam Field Mic: Wait, what happened?
[0:45:02 – 0:45:06] Adam: A lake trout and a smallie destroyed a stringer and got away.
[0:45:06 – 0:45:07] Adam: So they were on the stringer?
[0:45:07 – 0:45:08] Adam: They were on the stringer.
[0:45:08 – 0:45:08] Erik: Oh, shoot.
[0:45:09 – 0:45:13] Adam: I mean, I’ve seen a snapping turtle wreak havoc, but I’ve never had an actual fish destroy the stringer.
[0:45:13 – 0:45:14] Adam: They must have been buttes.
[0:45:15 – 0:45:16] Adam: They’re true monsters.
[0:45:17 – 0:45:19] Erik: Or maybe you just forgot to tie it off to the canoe like me.
[0:45:19 – 0:45:20] Adam: Or that can happen.
[0:45:21 – 0:45:21] Adam: I’ve seen that happen.
[0:45:22 – 0:45:30] Adam: The other meltdown was after a long portage when he discovered that the Reese’s Pieces had succumbed to damp conditions and became soggy.
[0:45:31 – 0:45:33] Adam: I almost cried about that, too.
[0:45:34 – 0:45:36] Adam: Even the bass egg soup hit the spot.
[0:45:36 – 0:45:36] Adam: What?
[0:45:36 – 0:45:39] Adam: Don’t knock it till you try it, Eric.
[0:45:39 – 0:45:40] Adam: I’m going to knock it.
[0:45:40 – 0:45:41] Adam: Bass egg soup?
[0:45:41 – 0:45:43] Adam: Bass egg soup.
[0:45:44 – 0:45:45] Adam: I don’t even know.
[0:45:45 – 0:45:48] Adam: I, as a professional cook, have no idea what’s happening right now.
[0:45:49 – 0:45:53] Adam: I don’t know if I dare take him on another trip because it can’t possibly turn out that good again.
[0:45:54 – 0:45:55] Adam: Goodbye, BWCA forever?
[0:45:55 – 0:45:55] Adam: Not.
[0:45:56 – 0:45:56] Adam: No.
[0:45:58 – 0:45:59] Adam: Thank you.
[0:45:59 – 0:46:03] Erik: I can’t tell which part of that, if any, was editorialized.
[0:46:04 – 0:46:04] Erik: Very little.
[0:46:04 – 0:46:05] Erik: Very little.
[0:46:05 – 0:46:05] Erik: Not.
[0:46:06 – 0:46:06] Adam: No.
[0:46:06 – 0:46:08] Adam: Just the screaming of no at one point.
[0:46:09 – 0:46:10] Adam: Bass egg soup.
[0:46:10 – 0:46:10] Erik: Hmm.
[0:46:11 – 0:46:12] Adam: Bass egg soup.
[0:46:13 – 0:46:14] Adam: Sounds god awful.
[0:46:14 – 0:46:16] Adam: Bass eggs.
[0:46:17 – 0:46:19] Adam: So do you think there’s really bass eggs in it?
[0:46:22 – 0:46:24] Adam: I will leave it to the imagination.
[0:46:25 – 0:46:27] Adam: I don’t want to know more, but I do.
[0:46:27 – 0:46:27] Adam: I kind of do.
[0:46:28 – 0:46:33] Adam: If you are listening, please contact the show, tumblehomecast at gmail.com.
[0:46:33 – 0:46:36] Adam: We must have the recipe for bass egg soup immediately.
[0:46:36 – 0:46:38] Erik: Bass egg soup, question mark?
[0:46:38 – 0:46:42] Adam: Next time I’m out playing frisbee golf to chairs, I want to enjoy my bass egg soup.
[0:46:43 – 0:46:43] Adam: All right.
[0:46:45 – 0:46:46] Adam: I’ve scrolled it.
[0:46:46 – 0:46:46] Adam: I’ve scrolled it for you.
[0:46:46 – 0:46:47] Adam: Oh, we’re all scrolled up.
[0:46:47 – 0:46:50] Erik: This isn’t our first question of the year.
[0:46:53 – 0:46:54] Erik: Have beer.
[0:46:54 – 0:46:55] Erik: We’ll paddle.
[0:46:57 – 0:46:58] Erik: Took my son.
[0:46:58 – 0:46:59] Erik: Look at all these people with kids.
[0:47:00 – 0:47:01] Erik: Doing kid things.
[0:47:02 – 0:47:03] Adam: Like bass egg soup.
[0:47:03 – 0:47:05] Adam: I can’t wait to feed my son.
[0:47:05 – 0:47:08] Erik: Force feeding your son bass egg soup.
[0:47:08 – 0:47:10] Adam: Trust me, it’ll make you big and strong.
[0:47:10 – 0:47:12] Adam: See, I’m already polished.
[0:47:12 – 0:47:14] Erik: Trust me, it’s good.
[0:47:14 – 0:47:16] Erik: Somebody on Reddit said it was good.
[0:47:16 – 0:47:19] Adam: You’re never going to grow a nice beard without eating your bass egg soup, boy.
[0:47:22 – 0:47:23] Erik: Have beer, we’ll paddle.
[0:47:23 – 0:47:28] Erik: Took my son on the Granite River route around the 4th of July.
[0:47:28 – 0:47:30] Erik: Clove Lake was a zoo.
[0:47:31 – 0:47:33] Erik: So I started second-guessing myself on the plan.
[0:47:34 – 0:47:38] Erik: But after we made the portage out of there, we only saw one other group until Sag Falls.
[0:47:39 – 0:47:44] Erik: Amazingly, that group was some crazy Canadians that portaged into Nice Lake from Northern Lights.
[0:47:45 – 0:47:45] Adam: Wow.
[0:47:46 – 0:47:46] Adam: Yes.
[0:47:46 – 0:47:50] Erik: They were slightly lost in USA waters.
[0:47:52 – 0:47:53] Adam: What’s the big deal?
[0:47:54 – 0:47:56] Erik: We spent tonight camping on Connor’s Island.
[0:47:56 – 0:47:58] Adam: Make a terrible law enforcement agent.
[0:47:58 – 0:47:59] Adam: It’s fine.
[0:47:59 – 0:48:00] Adam: You guys are all right.
[0:48:00 – 0:48:01] Adam: I’m sure it’s reasonable.
[0:48:02 – 0:48:04] Erik: What, you’re in this country without any paperwork?
[0:48:04 – 0:48:05] Erik: Seems plausible.
[0:48:05 – 0:48:06] Erik: It’s the wilderness.
[0:48:07 – 0:48:10] Erik: The site was great, but the motorboat traffic was a bummer.
[0:48:11 – 0:48:15] Erik: Saw one group hack out their own site on a nearby island.
[0:48:16 – 0:48:17] Erik: Did you report that?
[0:48:18 – 0:48:19] Erik: Have beer will paddle?
[0:48:21 – 0:48:43] Erik: they’re not in a state to confront anyone no no well maybe when you get back though for whatever it’s worth tps report on that yeah go fill out a bunch of paperwork for no reason pike and small moth bass fishing was good but i failed to get us into the walleye probably mostly my fault lacking patience needed
[0:48:45 – 0:48:47] Erik: Lacking patience needed.
[0:48:47 – 0:48:55] Erik: Yeah, I think that is probably the big issue when it comes to consistent walleye fishing.
[0:48:56 – 0:49:01] Erik: They just need that steadfast and dedicated dad patience.
[0:49:02 – 0:49:03] Adam: Yeah.
[0:49:04 – 0:49:05] Adam: Gotta move slow.
[0:49:06 – 0:49:07] Erik: Wait for the nibble, boy.
[0:49:08 – 0:49:09] Erik: Wait for the nibble.
[0:49:09 – 0:49:10] Adam: Then count to 30.
[0:49:11 – 0:49:15] Adam: Then count to 30 until the… More patience?
[0:49:15 – 0:49:16] Erik: The leech, it’s in its stomach.
[0:49:17 – 0:49:19] Erik: You don’t want to miss that gut hook, though, boy.
[0:49:21 – 0:49:27] Erik: What I learned on that trip is that you need to put sunblock on your bald spot if you wear a mesh hat.
[0:49:28 – 0:49:29] Adam: Well, just don’t wear a mesh hat.
[0:49:29 – 0:49:31] Adam: I’m going to amend your rule right there.
[0:49:32 – 0:49:34] Adam Field Mic: Well, it’s nice when it’s hot.
[0:49:34 – 0:49:37] Adam: You don’t want to have a thick hat.
[0:49:38 – 0:50:04] Erik: woolen hat daniel day lewis is back for a new film woolen hand it’s a hat made of pants of wool here you go this last one’s for you also never pass up an opportunity to to do a trip with your kids blink your eyes and they are in college and then things really start to change after college
[0:50:05 – 0:50:28] Erik: says have beer will paddle there’s only one way to find out that’s like 2042 set timer to 18 years from now yeah well record scratch i guess you guys might be wondering how i ended up here well 18 years ago a thing happened my dad was in this podcast bunch of nonsense and uh now it’s 2042 let me tell you the tale
[0:50:28 – 0:50:36] Erik: Hey, buddy, if you’re listening, I’m probably dead and or gone, but I’m glad your dad’s around and we had this fun few years together.
[0:50:36 – 0:50:36] Erik: Bye.
[0:50:37 – 0:50:37] Erik: Love you, son.
[0:50:38 – 0:50:38] Erik: Love you.
[0:50:38 – 0:50:44] Adam: I always forget the damn podcast is going to be there long after we’re gone.
[0:50:44 – 0:50:47] Erik: Oh, I’ve paid for 25 years of future hosting.
[0:50:53 – 0:50:59] Adam: It might be dead, but rest assured, anybody listening in 2042, I ate a lot of Bass Egg Soup.
[0:51:00 – 0:51:02] Adam: Except on the show, Gray Panther 8.
[0:51:02 – 0:51:05] Adam Field Mic: Four boxes of cat wine.
[0:51:09 – 0:51:12] Adam: Had a slow-paced five-day trip in early June.
[0:51:13 – 0:51:17] Adam: Started the trip at bunkhouses at the Outfitter, who will no longer be named.
[0:51:18 – 0:51:27] Adam: Brought a beer sponsorship from Holtzlager Brewing that I believe fell victim to the great seasonal staff raid of 21.
[0:51:27 – 0:51:28] Adam: I’m not sure if that’s true.
[0:51:29 – 0:51:30] Erik: Let me just quick look here.
[0:51:30 – 0:51:31] Adam: Holtzlager?
[0:51:32 – 0:51:33] Adam: Ever heard of that one?
[0:51:33 – 0:51:35] Erik: Holtzlager.
[0:51:35 – 0:51:36] Adam: Holtzlager.
[0:51:37 – 0:51:39] Erik: It could have been Max.
[0:51:39 – 0:51:40] Erik: Are you listening?
[0:51:40 – 0:51:45] Erik: I know you’re not, but let’s just go ahead and blame Max.
[0:51:46 – 0:51:47] Erik: Max?
[0:51:48 – 0:51:49] Adam: You’re in big trouble, bud.
[0:51:50 – 0:51:51] Adam: I’m disappointed.
[0:51:52 – 0:51:52] Adam: We all are.
[0:51:54 – 0:51:54] Adam: All right.
[0:51:55 – 0:51:56] Adam: Well, who knows what happened to that Holtzlager.
[0:51:57 – 0:51:58] Adam: We resume the story.
[0:51:59 – 0:52:04] Adam: We did the East Bearskin route, spent two nights on Alder and two nights on Caribou.
[0:52:04 – 0:52:07] Adam: We had two nights of rain, which put the tarps to the test.
[0:52:07 – 0:52:09] Adam: The fishing was good.
[0:52:09 – 0:52:11] Adam: Camp sites were hard to come by.
[0:52:11 – 0:52:14] Adam: An Olympic-level canoe sprint was required.
[0:52:15 – 0:52:19] Adam: We had to send an advanced party with a reduced load to secure a spot at Caribou.
[0:52:20 – 0:52:20] Erik: My God.
[0:52:20 – 0:52:21] Erik: Speed.
[0:52:21 – 0:52:22] Erik: Reduced load.
[0:52:22 – 0:52:23] Erik: Right.
[0:52:23 – 0:52:24] Erik: You go.
[0:52:25 – 0:52:25] Adam Field Mic: We’ll catch up.
[0:52:26 – 0:52:35] Adam: We were set to make offerings of brown liqueur and fresh walleye if no spots were left, but our scouting party succeeded in laying claim to a campsite.
[0:52:36 – 0:52:38] Adam: We brought four rookies in our party of eight.
[0:52:39 – 0:52:39] Adam: Geez.
[0:52:39 – 0:52:40] Adam: Yeah.
[0:52:40 – 0:52:42] Adam: All are ready to get back to the B-dub.
[0:52:43 – 0:52:48] Adam: We did feel very lucky to get our trip in before the fire ban.
[0:52:48 – 0:52:49] Adam: There you go.
[0:52:50 – 0:52:50] Adam: Huzzah.
[0:52:52 – 0:52:59] Adam: Yeah, I never sent an advanced scout party out to get a sight with… You guys take all the packs and come on up.
[0:52:59 – 0:53:05] Adam: Yeah, I’ve never… Like the Paul Tregertha behind us, and we’ll sprint out in our speed yacht.
[0:53:05 – 0:53:06] Erik: Yes, the speed yacht.
[0:53:06 – 0:53:08] Adam: With the rooster tails a-kicking.
[0:53:08 – 0:53:09] Adam: Ha ha ha!
[0:53:09 – 0:53:17] Erik: I’ve never traveled with a group of eight, though, either, where you could easily kind of subvert some of the luggage.
[0:53:18 – 0:53:18] Adam: Yeah.
[0:53:18 – 0:53:20] Erik: That’s what it’s called when you’re out there in the bonkers.
[0:53:20 – 0:53:21] Erik: Luggage.
[0:53:21 – 0:53:22] Erik: Luggage.
[0:53:22 – 0:53:22] Erik: Trip luggage.
[0:53:24 – 0:53:26] Adam: Yeah, that’s what it’s called when you put it in a wooden box.
[0:53:26 – 0:53:27] Erik: Yeah.
[0:53:28 – 0:53:28] Adam: Carry-ons.
[0:53:28 – 0:53:29] Adam: Stow this below decks.
[0:53:31 – 0:53:33] Adam: Next up on the show, Dutch Paddler.
[0:53:33 – 0:53:33] Adam: Hello.
[0:53:35 – 0:53:36] Erik: Max Verstappen?
[0:53:37 – 0:53:38] Adam Field Mic: Dutch Paddler.
[0:53:39 – 0:53:40] Adam: Four boxes of wine.
[0:53:41 – 0:53:48] Adam: This year, I could not make it out to the B-Dub due to COVID and having moved to the Boston area.
[0:53:48 – 0:53:50] Adam: Boston area.
[0:53:50 – 0:53:55] Adam: Still a dedicated tumble homie, but it may be a while before I can be back.
[0:53:55 – 0:54:03] Adam: A tad jealous of all these stories of multiple wilderness trips, but it’s good to see others enjoyed it despite some of the challenges of 2021.
[0:54:04 – 0:54:05] Adam: Thank you for the comment.
[0:54:08 – 0:54:09] Adam: You ever been to Boston?
[0:54:10 – 0:54:11] Adam: College hockey?
[0:54:11 – 0:54:11] Adam: Boston.
[0:54:12 – 0:54:13] Adam: Am I hitting it?
[0:54:13 – 0:54:14] Adam: I’m nailing it.
[0:54:14 – 0:54:15] Erik: We are nailing it.
[0:54:15 – 0:54:25] Erik: I think in the podcast description, or at the very least in many, many reviews, we’ve gotten consistently high marks on how good our…
[0:54:25 – 0:54:53] Erik: accents and impressions are probably and impersonations yeah yeah this weird characters and skits we come up with and yeah and ventriloquism little do you know we’re actually both sitting in studio here with two ventriloquists 170 episodes in spoiler not gonna lie we have been actually ventriloquism ming this entire show yeah eric’s um eric’s puppet is it a puppet or a mannequin then get your hand in a mannequin it’s a full mannequin

[0:54:58 – 0:55:00] Adam: A full mannequin dummy.
[0:55:00 – 0:55:03] Erik: A full human-sized mannequin dummy sitting on my lap.
[0:55:04 – 0:55:06] Adam Field Mic: Well, that sounds like a lot of fun, Eric.
[0:55:10 – 0:55:12] Adam Field Mic: Next up on the show is Gopi and my prince.
[0:55:13 – 0:55:14] Adam Field Mic: I love the Boundary Waters.
[0:55:14 – 0:55:16] Adam Field Mic: Three boxes of wine.

[0:55:18 – 0:55:19] Adam: It sure is, Rex.
[0:55:20 – 0:55:25] Adam: Zero BWCA Quetico trips, but many local river trips with the family.
[0:55:26 – 0:55:28] Adam: I like a good local river trip.
[0:55:28 – 0:55:28] Adam: Yeah.
[0:55:28 – 0:55:29] Adam: Well done.
[0:55:29 – 0:55:37] Adam: The three-year-old figured out how to be entertained and not squirmy in the canoe, which means next year we’ll be headed up for the base camp style trip.
[0:55:38 – 0:56:07] Adam: pew pew i’ve had to live vicariously through other people’s posts and pictures including my friend who took his family up at the end of july when seemingly everything was on fire here’s the next year what is that oh it’s a cheers it’s a cheers beers here’s the next cheers beers all right cheers goby goby this island city uh

[0:56:21 – 0:56:21] Erik: Getting where?
[0:56:22 – 0:56:24] Adam: To the end of this Island City Brewing Company.
[0:56:26 – 0:56:31] Adam: Massive St. Bernard around the neck sized can.
[0:56:32 – 0:56:33] Erik: Crack it open for a warm.
[0:56:34 – 0:57:04] Erik: get the hatchet my wooden box full of beer is almost empty pecan whiskey yeah why is no brewer ain’t somebody out there need to get a beer that comes in like a miniature little cooper’s barrel yeah and then you just tap it and it has a little a couple of loops so that i can go around a dog collar or my neck i’m the size of a saint bernard just a human neck collar do you think a saint bernard’s taller than me if they stand up yeah from top to from toe to toe yeah for sure oh yeah
[0:57:04 – 0:57:04] Adam: All right.
[0:57:05 – 0:57:06] Adam: Yeah, I would think so.
[0:57:09 – 0:57:10] Adam: Are they tall or are they beefy?
[0:57:11 – 0:57:11] Adam: They’re both.
[0:57:12 – 0:57:16] Adam: Well, that’s why they need such a big beer.
[0:57:16 – 0:57:17] Adam: Yeah.
[0:57:17 – 0:57:20] Adam: They’re tall and beefy.
[0:57:20 – 0:57:21] Adam: Full of good cheer.
[0:57:22 – 0:57:31] Adam: Yeah, a full-blown Beethoven-sized… Who’s bigger, a St. Bernard or a… What’s his name?
[0:57:31 – 0:57:33] Erik: Are you trying to think of the actor from Beethoven?
[0:57:33 – 0:57:34] Erik: No.
[0:57:34 – 0:57:35] Erik: Rick Moranis?
[0:57:35 – 0:57:35] Erik: Grimace.
[0:57:36 – 0:57:36] Erik: Grimace.
[0:57:36 – 0:57:37] Adam: Yeah.
[0:57:39 – 0:57:41] Adam: I want to see Rick Moranis dressed up as a Grimace.
[0:57:42 – 0:57:44] Erik: I don’t think Rick Moranis is in Beethoven.
[0:57:45 – 0:57:46] Erik: What the heck is that guy?
[0:57:46 – 0:57:47] Erik: What is that actor’s name?
[0:57:47 – 0:57:48] Erik: I can picture him.
[0:57:48 – 0:57:48] Adam: From Beethoven?
[0:57:48 – 0:57:49] Erik: Mm-hmm.
[0:57:50 – 0:57:50] Adam: No idea.
[0:57:50 – 0:57:51] Adam: I got no idea.
[0:57:51 – 0:57:56] Adam: I would think that St. Bernard is bigger than Grimace, even.
[0:57:56 – 0:57:58] Adam: Probably, who would win in a fight?
[0:57:59 – 0:58:00] Adam: Charles Grodin.
[0:58:00 – 0:58:03] Adam: Beethoven’s Fifth or Hamburglar.
[0:58:04 – 0:58:07] Erik: Beethoven’s Fifth versus Hamburglar?
[0:58:07 – 0:58:07] Erik: Yeah.
[0:58:08 – 0:58:09] Erik: I don’t even understand how that would work.
[0:58:09 – 0:58:11] Erik: That sounds like a pinball machine mashup.
[0:58:11 – 0:58:14] Adam: No, Beethoven from the Beethoven movies.
[0:58:15 – 0:58:16] Erik: Oh, the dog versus Grimace?
[0:58:16 – 0:58:16] Adam: Right.
[0:58:16 – 0:58:18] Erik: Dog wins every time.
[0:58:18 – 0:58:19] Erik: Dogs don’t have any boundaries.
[0:58:21 – 0:58:22] Adam: Yeah, but what is Grimace?
[0:58:22 – 0:58:23] Adam: We still don’t know.
[0:58:23 – 0:58:24] Adam: Could be gas.
[0:58:25 – 0:58:26] Adam: Gaseous blob.
[0:58:27 – 0:58:34] Erik: I think I would have to go ahead and just assume the battle would be a three-dimensional Grimace character in the suit.
[0:58:34 – 0:58:35] Adam: He gets his ass kicked.
[0:58:35 – 0:58:36] Erik: Probably.
[0:58:36 – 0:58:39] Erik: I was going to say groin stuff, but where’s Grimace’s groin?
[0:58:39 – 0:58:41] Erik: He might have four groins.
[0:58:41 – 0:58:42] Adam: Right in his face.
[0:58:42 – 0:58:45] Erik: He’s got a couple up on the top near his neck, maybe?
[0:58:46 – 0:58:47] Erik: Is that a neck?
[0:58:47 – 0:58:48] Erik: If it just slightly tapers?
[0:58:50 – 0:58:50] Erik: He’s just a dry.
[0:58:50 – 0:58:53] Erik: He’s just a purple drop of goo.
[0:58:54 – 0:58:55] Adam: Yeah, I think he’s grape soda.
[0:58:55 – 0:58:59] Adam: I’m going to go ahead and say he’s supposed to be a grape soda.
[0:58:59 – 0:58:59] Adam: That’s my guess.
[0:59:00 – 0:59:00] Erik: Okay.
[0:59:00 – 0:59:01] Erik: Anthropomorphized grape soda.
[0:59:01 – 0:59:02] Erik: That’s the only thing that makes sense.
[0:59:02 – 0:59:04] Adam: That’s the only thing that makes sense.
[0:59:04 – 0:59:05] Erik: But why grimace?
[0:59:05 – 0:59:07] Erik: That’s a bad word to associate with food.
[0:59:07 – 0:59:08] Adam: Who knows?
[0:59:08 – 0:59:09] Adam: They didn’t have to try very hard back then.
[0:59:09 – 0:59:11] Adam: There was like four restaurants.
[0:59:11 – 0:59:11] Adam: Yeah.
[0:59:12 – 0:59:13] Adam: Four chain restaurants, the whole world.
[0:59:14 – 0:59:14] Adam: Yeah.
[0:59:14 – 0:59:18] Adam: And one of them, they’re like, I don’t know, purple drink guy grimace?
[0:59:18 – 0:59:18] Adam: Yeah.
[0:59:18 – 0:59:19] Adam: This seems right.
[0:59:19 – 0:59:20] Adam: This sounds right.
[0:59:20 – 0:59:20] Adam: Yeah.
[0:59:21 – 0:59:42] Adam: what he’s hanging out with this burglar that only likes burgers who was the other characters they had some other guys did they not they had a lot of other guys yeah well who else was in the gang well there was the kids mcdonald’s kids and or burger king kids and then there was the mcdonald’s crew this is the mcdonald’s crew which was grimace they’re hanging out with ronald wasn’t there like a mayor of hamburger town or something
[0:59:42 – 0:59:43] Adam: No, that’s Ronald.
[0:59:43 – 0:59:44] Erik: Ronald’s the president.
[0:59:46 – 0:59:47] Adam: And the mayor, probably.
[0:59:47 – 0:59:47] Adam: No.
[0:59:47 – 0:59:48] Adam: Hamburger town.
[0:59:49 – 0:59:51] Adam: Yeah, I can’t picture anybody else in this crew.
[0:59:51 – 0:59:57] Adam: I thought there was a crew of four, and they were hanging out with Hamburger Jesus, a.k.a.
[0:59:57 – 0:59:58] Adam: Ronald McDonald himself.
[0:59:59 – 1:00:03] Adam: Ronald McShera Donald, king of the burger world.
[1:00:03 – 1:00:05] Erik: Ooh, here they are.
[1:00:05 – 1:00:06] Erik: Oh, man.
[1:00:06 – 1:00:07] Adam: Yeah, who else is in the crew?
[1:00:07 – 1:00:09] Adam: That’s what I got to know now.
[1:00:10 – 1:00:14] Erik: I forgot about the little long-legged ball, fuzzy ball guys.
[1:00:14 – 1:00:15] Adam: Holy crap, there’s a bunch of them.
[1:00:16 – 1:00:16] Erik: Yeah.
[1:00:16 – 1:00:18] Adam: What’s the duck lady?
[1:00:18 – 1:00:20] Adam: The duck lady, I remember her.
[1:00:20 – 1:00:22] Erik: Oh, yeah, the duck lady with the pigtails.
[1:00:22 – 1:00:23] Erik: Yeah.
[1:00:24 – 1:00:27] Erik: Who is the mysterious black shadow in the background?
[1:00:28 – 1:00:29] Erik: What is that?
[1:00:29 – 1:00:30] Erik: That is so ominous.
[1:00:31 – 1:00:32] Adam: What is that?
[1:00:32 – 1:00:33] Adam: Oh, no.
[1:00:33 – 1:00:35] Adam: So there’s really only three.
[1:00:35 – 1:00:36] Adam: I don’t remember the black shadow.
[1:00:36 – 1:00:38] Erik: He just sounds like he has a noise.
[1:00:38 – 1:00:38] Erik: He’s just like…
[1:00:41 – 1:00:44] Erik: That’s the most stressful thing I think I’ve ever seen.
[1:00:44 – 1:00:50] Adam: Yeah, that’s like when you see somebody with the demon eyes, the all black eyes.
[1:00:50 – 1:00:51] Adam: It’s like that.
[1:00:51 – 1:00:52] Adam: Sunday.
[1:00:52 – 1:00:53] Adam: Except for the whole person.
[1:00:53 – 1:00:55] Erik: So Sunday is Ronald’s dog.
[1:00:56 – 1:00:56] Adam: Yeah.
[1:00:56 – 1:00:57] Adam: Here we go.
[1:00:58 – 1:00:59] Erik: We’re going to get the description.
[1:01:00 – 1:01:01] Erik: This is from McDonald’s Wiki.
[1:01:02 – 1:01:07] Erik: Grimace is a large purple character and debuted in 1971 as the evil Grimace.
[1:01:11 – 1:01:11] Erik: What?
[1:01:11 – 1:01:12] Erik: Okay.
[1:01:12 – 1:01:14] Adam: Is this like a Wario deal?
[1:01:14 – 1:01:17] Erik: Yeah, evil was soon dropped from Grimace’s moniker.
[1:01:17 – 1:01:22] Erik: And Grimace was reintroduced in 1972 as one of the good guys.
[1:01:22 – 1:01:23] Adam: Oh, he’s reformed.
[1:01:26 – 1:01:26] Adam: See?
[1:01:26 – 1:01:31] Adam: You just give somebody enough love and they can turn their life around.
[1:01:32 – 1:01:33] Adam: Grimace is proof of this.
[1:01:35 – 1:01:36] Adam: God, what’s next?
[1:01:36 – 1:01:37] Adam: What’s the shadow man?
[1:01:37 – 1:01:39] Erik: No, we haven’t gotten to the shadow man yet.
[1:01:39 – 1:01:41] Erik: We’re still on Grimace.
[1:01:41 – 1:01:47] Erik: His appearance also changed to accommodate a factor about him being a well-meaning simpleton.
[1:01:48 – 1:02:00] Erik: From a giant purple slob with a pink mouth and small pupils to a gentle giant with movable eyebrows and eyelids and a more kid friendlier smile.
[1:02:02 – 1:02:04] Erik: That sounds like too much of a good thing.
[1:02:04 – 1:02:05] Erik: Oh, my God.
[1:02:05 – 1:02:08] Erik: With a black mouth and a pink tongue.
[1:02:08 – 1:02:09] Adam: Like a giraffe?
[1:02:10 – 1:02:11] Adam: No, that’s more like a raven.
[1:02:12 – 1:02:13] Erik: Oh, my God.
[1:02:13 – 1:02:14] Erik: Oh, my God.
[1:02:18 – 1:02:18] Erik: Oh, boy.
[1:02:18 – 1:02:22] Erik: Let’s just start a McDonald’s characters podcast.
[1:02:22 – 1:02:23] Adam: I’m so intrigued.
[1:02:23 – 1:02:24] Erik: Yeah.
[1:02:24 – 1:02:33] Erik: The characters Uncle O’Grimacy first appeared in 1986 and would visit only one month per year around St. Patrick’s Day.
[1:02:34 – 1:02:34] Adam: Oh, no.
[1:02:34 – 1:02:35] Adam: He’s got the shakes.
[1:02:37 – 1:02:38] Erik: Uncle O’ Grimacy.
[1:02:39 – 1:02:40] Adam: Do you have a picture of this?
[1:02:40 – 1:02:41] Erik: No, I don’t have any pictures.
[1:02:41 – 1:02:42] Erik: Uncle O’ Grimacy?
[1:02:42 – 1:02:42] Erik: No.
[1:02:43 – 1:02:47] Erik: But apparently there was a VHS of The Legend of Grimace Island.
[1:02:49 – 1:02:53] Erik: And where we learn about Grimace and his unnamed mom and unnamed dad.
[1:02:53 – 1:02:55] Erik: But his grandpa’s name is Winky.
[1:02:55 – 1:02:56] Erik: Winky Grimace.
[1:02:56 – 1:03:00] Erik: Yeah, and great-great-grandma named Jenny Grimace.
[1:03:01 – 1:03:03] Erik: And he might have had a brother named King Conga?
[1:03:04 – 1:03:05] Erik: King Gonga.
[1:03:06 – 1:03:08] Adam: Who is the king of all grimaces?
[1:03:08 – 1:03:10] Adam: King Grimace and the Lizard Whizzes.
[1:03:11 – 1:03:12] Erik: King Gunga?
[1:03:12 – 1:03:15] Erik: Who is the king of all grimaces?
[1:03:15 – 1:03:16] Adam: King Gunga.
[1:03:16 – 1:03:17] Adam: All right, write this down.
[1:03:17 – 1:03:18] Erik: Oh, my God.
[1:03:19 – 1:03:21] Erik: In Grimace’s Odyssey.
[1:03:22 – 1:03:23] Erik: Grimace.
[1:03:23 – 1:03:23] Adam: G-O-N-G-A.
[1:03:23 – 1:03:24] Erik: Gunga.
[1:03:24 – 1:03:26] Erik: Oh, no.
[1:03:32 – 1:03:41] Erik: So this may be my selection for the next TCC, which is Grimace’s Odyssey, in which Grimace is portrayed as a ham radio enthusiast.
[1:03:41 – 1:03:43] Erik: No, he’s not.
[1:03:43 – 1:03:47] Erik: Who uses a homemade transmitter made from a colander.
[1:03:47 – 1:03:48] Adam: You know that would never work.
[1:03:49 – 1:03:51] Adam: You don’t have nearly enough frequency nodules.
[1:03:52 – 1:03:54] Erik: Oh, my God.
[1:03:54 – 1:03:55] Adam: King Ganga.
[1:03:55 – 1:03:57] Erik: King Ganga, who is the king of all Grimace’s.
[1:03:59 – 1:04:01] Adam: Okay, well, I think we know enough now about Grimace.
[1:04:02 – 1:04:03] Adam: Okay.
[1:04:03 – 1:04:06] Adam: I actually don’t want to know any more about any of the crew.
[1:04:07 – 1:04:07] Adam: What about the Hamburglar?
[1:04:07 – 1:04:09] Adam: What’s his backstory, though?
[1:04:09 – 1:04:11] Adam: Maybe next week we’ll get into Hamburglar’s story.
[1:04:11 – 1:04:14] Erik: Hamburglar’s got a big, full paragraph on his backstory.
[1:04:14 – 1:04:15] Adam: Save that for next week.
[1:04:16 – 1:04:17] Adam: Let’s get into Hamburglar next week.
[1:04:17 – 1:04:19] Adam: I don’t want to know about Duck Lady.
[1:04:19 – 1:04:19] Adam: What’s her name?
[1:04:19 – 1:04:21] Erik: There’s Birdie the Early Bird.
[1:04:21 – 1:04:22] Adam: Birdie?
[1:04:22 – 1:04:24] Erik: Birdie, the early Birdie.
[1:04:24 – 1:04:24] Erik: Yep.
[1:04:24 – 1:04:33] Erik: She was the first identifiably female character who debuted in 1980 to promote the company’s new breakfast items.
[1:04:34 – 1:04:36] Adam: She’s the breakfast mascot?
[1:04:36 – 1:04:37] Adam: I guess.
[1:04:37 – 1:04:38] Erik: There’s the Fry Kids.
[1:04:39 – 1:04:39] Erik: Pancakes.
[1:04:39 – 1:04:41] Erik: We all remember the Fry Kids.
[1:04:42 – 1:04:43] Erik: Mayor McCheese.
[1:04:43 – 1:04:50] Erik: He was an enormous cheeseburger who appeared from 1971 to 2008 when he died for having too big of a head.
[1:04:50 – 1:04:50] Erik: What?
[1:04:52 – 1:05:15] Adam: officer big mac captain crook the professor is that the is that the shadow i want to know yeah no i don’t know if the shadow gets mentioned at all here that’s just a future it’s like uh ronald mcdonald in a alternate dimension or something you can’t even you can’t even know or understand uh the physical form
[1:05:15 – 1:05:17] Erik: Yeah, it’s un-understandable.
[1:05:18 – 1:05:19] Erik: Yeah.
[1:05:20 – 1:05:22] Erik: Uncle O’Grimacy is also mentioned here again.
[1:05:22 – 1:05:25] Erik: He’s the St. Patrick’s Day grimace mascot.
[1:05:25 – 1:05:26] Adam: Son of King Ganga.
[1:05:27 – 1:05:28] Adam: King Ganga.
[1:05:28 – 1:05:29] Adam: King of the grimaces.
[1:05:32 – 1:05:36] Erik: Uncle O’Grimacy is no longer used by the chain for its promotions of the shake.
[1:05:38 – 1:05:39] Adam: Why?
[1:05:39 – 1:05:41] Adam: They still have the shake, so we all know the truth.
[1:05:45 – 1:05:47] Erik: Yeah, there is no mention of the…
[1:05:51 – 1:05:53] Erik: I just want to see who the… Yeah, no.
[1:05:53 – 1:05:55] Erik: No dark shadowy characters.
[1:05:57 – 1:05:57] Adam: Must be a…
[1:05:57 – 1:06:00] Adam: I’m sure that’s a mistake.
[1:06:04 – 1:06:07] Erik: Just to leave a huge shadowy monster in the background of that picture?
[1:06:07 – 1:06:09] Adam: Well, something’s up.
[1:06:09 – 1:06:12] Adam: I don’t even really want to know what’s up with that, but I do.
[1:06:16 – 1:06:22] Erik: McDonald’s Wiki is maybe one of the craziest places I’ve ever been on.
[1:06:23 – 1:06:23] Adam: McDonald’s.
[1:06:24 – 1:06:25] Erik: Come on.
[1:06:25 – 1:06:25] Erik: Have you?
[1:06:26 – 1:06:26] Erik: All right.
[1:06:26 – 1:06:33] Erik: I’m not going to read any of this on the show, but I am going to flip the computer to Adam to show.
[1:06:33 – 1:06:34] Erik: Yeah, I know about that.
[1:06:34 – 1:06:35] Erik: You do?
[1:06:35 – 1:06:35] Erik: Yeah.
[1:06:35 – 1:06:36] Erik: I’ve never heard of it before.
[1:06:36 – 1:06:37] Adam: Well, I told you I worked there.
[1:06:38 – 1:06:39] Erik: And that was a thing people would order?
[1:06:40 – 1:06:41] Erik: The Baba Bowie burger?
[1:06:41 – 1:06:42] Adam: No, they would never.
[1:06:42 – 1:06:45] Adam: You just buy the two things and then put them together.
[1:06:45 – 1:06:45] Erik: Okay.
[1:06:46 – 1:06:47] Erik: But it’s a secret menu item, apparently.
[1:06:48 – 1:06:48] Adam: Yeah.
[1:06:48 – 1:06:53] Erik: The absurd and grotesque title gives a look into the nature of the burger.
[1:06:54 – 1:06:57] Adam: I was never asked to build one of those.
[1:06:57 – 1:07:00] Erik: So it’s a McChicken in between two doubles?
[1:07:00 – 1:07:00] Adam: Right.
[1:07:03 – 1:07:03] Adam: Wow.
[1:07:05 – 1:07:06] Adam: For the record, I’ve never tried it.
[1:07:06 – 1:07:07] Erik: Okay.
[1:07:08 – 1:07:10] Adam: But I have eaten 20 McNuggets at once.
[1:07:12 – 1:07:12] Erik: All at the same time?
[1:07:12 – 1:07:13] Erik: Mm-hmm.
[1:07:14 – 1:07:15] Erik: Like, in a row, though.
[1:07:15 – 1:07:16] Adam: Yeah, like on my lunch break.
[1:07:16 – 1:07:17] Erik: Not like 20 at once.
[1:07:18 – 1:07:20] Adam: No, no, like just 20 for lunch.
[1:07:20 – 1:07:24] Erik: Like mashed into a softball, Joey Chestnut style.
[1:07:25 – 1:07:25] Adam: Yeah.
[1:07:25 – 1:07:29] Adam: Do they still have, like, playgrounds and stuff at the McDonald’s, or has that gone away?
[1:07:30 – 1:07:31] Adam: Piss tubes?
[1:07:31 – 1:07:32] Erik: Yeah, they got ball pits still?
[1:07:32 – 1:07:33] Erik: Ball pits?
[1:07:34 – 1:07:35] Erik: Probably not.
[1:07:35 – 1:07:37] Erik: I think that COVID probably killed those.
[1:07:39 – 1:07:42] Erik: Yeah, who is the mystery man?
[1:07:43 – 1:07:47] Erik: Who is the mystery black shadow?
[1:07:47 – 1:07:48] Adam: Who’s the pirate?
[1:07:48 – 1:07:50] Adam: I don’t know.
[1:07:50 – 1:07:52] Adam: Yeah, I don’t recognize any of these people.
[1:07:52 – 1:07:58] Adam: I guess it was just Grimace and the hamburger guy that I really remembered.
[1:07:58 – 1:07:59] Adam: But Birdie, the breakfast bird.
[1:08:01 – 1:08:02] Erik: Birdie the early bird.
[1:08:02 – 1:08:04] Adam: Birdie the early bird, friend of Gordie.
[1:08:04 – 1:08:13] Erik: Captain Crook was a pirate in 1970 to 2008 and is similar in appearance to the famed Captain Hook from Disney’s 1953 Peter Pan.
[1:08:13 – 1:08:18] Erik: Unlike the Hamburglar, this villain spent his time trying to steal Filet-O-Fish sandwiches.
[1:08:18 – 1:08:19] Adam: Why do they have villains?
[1:08:19 – 1:08:21] Adam: Because somebody’s got to steal the food.
[1:08:21 – 1:08:23] Adam: That’s how good the food is.
[1:08:23 – 1:08:24] Adam: You’ve got to steal it.
[1:08:24 – 1:08:24] Adam: It’s so good.
[1:08:25 – 1:08:27] Erik: He often translated for the Hamburglar.
[1:08:28 – 1:08:31] Adam: The Hamburglar was speaking a weird form of Sanskrit.
[1:08:33 – 1:08:34] Adam: Old ancient knowledge.
[1:08:35 – 1:08:36] Adam: The Burger Man.
[1:08:38 – 1:08:40] Adam: Yeah.
[1:08:40 – 1:08:41] Adam: That’s right.
[1:08:41 – 1:08:42] Adam: Nobody could… Yeah.
[1:08:42 – 1:08:44] Adam: Hamburger didn’t speak English.
[1:08:46 – 1:08:49] Erik: And why was Captain Crook the one that could translate for him?
[1:08:49 – 1:08:50] Erik: Just because he was also in a life of crime?
[1:08:52 – 1:08:52] Adam: Yeah.
[1:08:52 – 1:08:52] Adam: Yeah.
[1:08:52 – 1:08:53] Adam: I guess so.
[1:08:53 – 1:08:55] Erik: Captain Crook used ships and waterways.
[1:08:55 – 1:08:55] Adam: I steal the fish.
[1:08:55 – 1:08:57] Adam: You steal the burger.
[1:08:57 – 1:08:58] Adam: We’re a good old team together.
[1:08:59 – 1:09:02] Adam: Ancient languages and thieving meat.
[1:09:05 – 1:09:31] Adam: i love these some of these movies that i guess exist out in the world all right next week on the show we will delve into the background story of the hamburglar a little bit more maybe probably we’ll forget about it but gonna continue on are we okay uh i think we’re gonna we gotta call it here part two is over we’re gonna call it you don’t have time to we can’t continue back into the commons now after we went down this road part two is over
[1:09:31 – 1:09:33] Erik: There are so many more comments, I guess.
[1:09:33 – 1:09:34] Erik: We’re going to keep going.
[1:09:34 – 1:09:34] Adam: Two out of six.
[1:09:35 – 1:09:36] Adam: Two out of six is complete.
[1:09:37 – 1:09:44] Adam: Thank you to everybody that sent in your stories this week.
[1:09:44 – 1:09:45] Adam: Sorry, no gifts.
[1:09:46 – 1:09:46] Adam: No gifts.
[1:09:46 – 1:09:47] Adam: We’re out of knives.
[1:09:47 – 1:09:49] Adam: Actually, we do have one more, but it’s not for this.
[1:09:50 – 1:09:53] Erik: It’s for special circumstances.
[1:09:53 – 1:09:55] Adam: For all the gold glory.
