Episode Transcript

[0:00:39 – 0:00:41] Erik: Like Brian Jones, I was born to swim.
[0:00:41 – 0:00:42] Erik: My name is Eric.
[0:00:42 – 0:00:47] Erik: It’s Tumble Home, a Boundary Waters podcast joined by my fine, fine friend.
[0:00:48 – 0:00:51] SPEAKER_00: Like Brian Jones.
[0:00:52 – 0:00:53] Adam: Yeah, baby.
[0:00:53 – 0:00:54] Adam: Yeah, baby.
[0:00:54 – 0:00:56] Adam: The door to the shed just opened as I did that.
[0:00:56 – 0:00:57] Erik: It just blew open.
[0:00:57 – 0:00:59] Adam: Is it Brian?
[0:00:59 – 0:01:00] Adam: The ghost of Brian is here.
[0:01:02 – 0:01:03] Adam: Arrow, shut the door.
[0:01:03 – 0:01:07] Adam: It’s very windy, and that door has been popping open all day here in the shed.
[0:01:08 – 0:01:13] Adam: We do have the heaters going because it’s like 38 degrees right now, and there’s a freeze warning.
[0:01:14 – 0:01:15] Erik: Yeah, I don’t know what’s been going on.
[0:01:15 – 0:01:23] Erik: I feel like every… Well, not every, but the last two weekends that we’ve been in the shed have been the coldest days of the week.
[0:01:23 – 0:01:29] Erik: It’ll be like 85 midweek, and then by the time we get into the shed, it’s like frost warning, snow potential…
[0:01:30 – 0:01:33] Adam: Yeah, I’m all about these frost warnings and freeze warnings right now.
[0:01:34 – 0:01:38] Adam: You get another week or two of these, and then it’s time to plant the garden, and then the bugs are here.
[0:01:39 – 0:01:41] Adam: We’re enjoying the freeze warning.
[0:01:41 – 0:01:42] Erik: I’m fine.
[0:01:42 – 0:01:45] Erik: I did get the heater out.
[0:01:45 – 0:01:46] Erik: It just is bad timing.
[0:01:46 – 0:01:48] Erik: I’m wearing the fingerless gloves.
[0:01:48 – 0:01:52] Erik: You’re wearing the wet bandit gloves.
[0:01:52 – 0:01:53] Adam: It’s the sticky bandits.
[0:01:53 – 0:01:54] Adam: Sticky bandits now.
[0:01:54 – 0:01:55] Adam: Get it right.
[0:01:55 – 0:01:56] Adam: Get it right.
[0:01:56 – 0:01:57] Adam: We’re working New York.
[0:01:57 – 0:01:58] Adam: We’ve got to have a big-timer name.
[0:01:58 – 0:01:58] Erik: Yep.
[0:01:59 – 0:02:00] Erik: Was this 289, 290?
[0:02:00 – 0:02:01] Erik: Where are we at?
[0:02:01 – 0:02:03] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:02:03 – 0:02:04] Adam: It’s your episode.
[0:02:04 – 0:02:05] Adam: I think it’s 290.
[0:02:06 – 0:02:07] Erik: This is your operation.
[0:02:07 – 0:02:08] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:02:08 – 0:02:09] Adam: I haven’t looked.
[0:02:09 – 0:02:11] Adam: I’m going to go shut that door again.
[0:02:12 – 0:02:13] Erik: 290.
[0:02:13 – 0:02:28] Erik: Sorry for anybody holding out hope for the geologist’s wife to be back extolling the virtues and explaining the Logan intrusion that was promised years ago, but it’s not happening.
[0:02:29 – 0:02:29] Erik: Sorry.
[0:02:30 – 0:02:31] Erik: Not yet.
[0:02:31 – 0:02:31] Erik: Not yet.
[0:02:32 – 0:02:33] Erik: We’re finishing up comments.
[0:02:33 – 0:02:34] Adam: That’s right.
[0:02:34 – 0:02:35] Adam: It was 290.
[0:02:35 – 0:02:36] Adam: It was supposed to be the Logan intrusion.
[0:02:37 – 0:02:37] Erik: Yeah.
[0:02:38 – 0:02:39] Erik: I shouldn’t even have said anything.
[0:02:39 – 0:02:42] Adam: Actually, we’re going to be talking all about breakwater basalts.
[0:02:42 – 0:02:43] Adam: Yeah.
[0:02:43 – 0:02:45] Adam: Tonight here on Tumble Home.
[0:02:45 – 0:02:46] Erik: Tonight on Tumble Home.
[0:02:46 – 0:02:54] Erik: No, it’s more sonnets and limericks and poetic battles.
[0:02:56 – 0:02:56] Erik: Rap battles.
[0:02:56 – 0:02:57] Erik: Rap battles.
[0:03:00 – 0:03:08] Erik: Uh, and we are not, um, we’re not discussing eight mile on this week’s TCC, but that would have been a good one to go along with where we’re at.
[0:03:09 – 0:03:11] Erik: Um, not enough submarine to that movie.
[0:03:11 – 0:03:12] Erik: Yeah.
[0:03:12 – 0:03:14] Erik: We are finishing up sub month though.
[0:03:15 – 0:03:15] Erik: Are we not?
[0:03:16 – 0:03:22] Erik: Did you say maybe we fully transitioned from sea to land in the movie that was picked?
[0:03:22 – 0:03:25] Adam: And I feel, I felt like it was really a sub movie.
[0:03:25 – 0:03:28] Erik: It kind of started as one, but it did not end as one.
[0:03:28 – 0:03:29] Erik: That’s for sure.
[0:03:29 – 0:03:34] Erik: We’re talking about the… 1966.
[0:03:34 – 0:03:35] Erik: Oh, baby.
[0:03:35 – 0:03:36] Erik: One of my favorites.
[0:03:36 – 0:03:37] Erik: The Russians are coming.
[0:03:37 – 0:03:38] Erik: The Russians are coming.
[0:03:38 – 0:03:39] Adam: You have to say it twice.
[0:03:39 – 0:03:40] Erik: Alan Arkin.
[0:03:41 – 0:03:42] Erik: Jonathan Winters.
[0:03:44 – 0:03:46] Adam: Who played little Peter?
[0:03:47 – 0:03:48] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:03:49 – 0:03:50] Adam: That was the start of the show.
[0:03:50 – 0:03:51] Erik: Yeah.
[0:03:51 – 0:03:52] Erik: It’s a good one.
[0:03:52 – 0:03:53] Erik: It’s a funny one.
[0:03:53 – 0:03:55] Adam: just constantly calling his father yellow.
[0:03:56 – 0:04:00] Erik: A little boy who just was… You let him get away.
[0:04:00 – 0:04:02] Adam: You should have shot him, Dad.
[0:04:02 – 0:04:05] Erik: Convinced his dad was a traitor to the Russians.
[0:04:07 – 0:04:09] Erik: I love the madness that overtakes that island.
[0:04:10 – 0:04:10] Adam: That’s great, man.
[0:04:11 – 0:04:11] Adam: Yeah.
[0:04:11 – 0:04:12] Adam: It really builds.
[0:04:12 – 0:04:16] Adam: I’d say it’s one of the movies I’ve seen that builds the most.
[0:04:16 – 0:04:17] Erik: Yeah.
[0:04:18 – 0:04:19] Erik: Yeah, so we’ll get to that.
[0:04:19 – 0:04:21] Adam: Is this another way of saying it starts slow?
[0:04:22 – 0:04:23] Erik: We’ll get to that in the mezzanine.
[0:04:24 – 0:04:27] Erik: Yeah, we get Alan Arkin doing his best Russian impression.
[0:04:28 – 0:04:29] Adam: I can’t speak Russian.
[0:04:30 – 0:04:35] Adam: I was worried that the closed caption wasn’t working, but that’s kind of the point, I guess.
[0:04:36 – 0:04:43] Erik: Yeah, you never know if it’s intentional or if something’s wrong, but I think it’s intentional.
[0:04:44 – 0:04:44] Adam: I restarted it.
[0:04:45 – 0:04:45] Erik: Wow.
[0:04:46 – 0:04:47] Erik: Devotion to the craft.
[0:04:47 – 0:04:50] Adam: I wanted to make sure I had the right version for the show.
[0:04:50 – 0:04:52] Adam: Otherwise, our notes wouldn’t match up.
[0:04:52 – 0:04:52] Erik: Tubi?
[0:04:53 – 0:04:57] Adam: No, I went full-on pirate mode.
[0:04:57 – 0:05:00] Adam: Because the Tubi has ads.
[0:05:00 – 0:05:01] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:05:01 – 0:05:02] Adam: I’m not going to wait around for ads.
[0:05:02 – 0:05:02] Adam: No way.
[0:05:02 – 0:05:05] Adam: Those ads are obnoxious on Tubi.
[0:05:05 – 0:05:06] Adam: So I just went full pirate mode.
[0:05:06 – 0:05:08] Adam: And then you can take screen grabs, too, which is sweet.
[0:05:08 – 0:05:08] Erik: Oh, yeah.
[0:05:09 – 0:05:10] Erik: You got on Yarmady Plus.
[0:05:12 – 0:05:12] Adam: Yarr.
[0:05:12 – 0:05:13] Erik: Yarr.
[0:05:14 – 0:05:15] Adam: Métis.yar.
[0:05:15 – 0:05:18] Adam: Métis.yar.
[0:05:18 – 0:05:19] Adam: That’s how you know it’s going to be a good link.
[0:05:20 – 0:05:21] Adam: Suspicious.
[0:05:21 – 0:05:25] Adam: If you’ve never seen the dot whatever, then you’re in for a real treat.
[0:05:25 – 0:05:29] Adam: That’s my policy on sale in the high seas.
[0:05:29 – 0:05:33] Erik: Yeah, is the coveted .com still a thing?
[0:05:34 – 0:05:35] Erik: Where you’re like, oh, I’m going to make a website.
[0:05:36 – 0:05:38] Erik: Oh, it’s not available as .com.
[0:05:38 – 0:05:39] Erik: People don’t respect it if it’s not .com.
[0:05:39 – 0:05:44] Adam: If you see .com, avoid it when you’re looking for this kind of content.
[0:05:44 – 0:05:44] Erik: Exactly.
[0:05:45 – 0:05:45] Adam: No way.
[0:05:47 – 0:05:47] Erik: Yeah.
[0:05:48 – 0:05:50] Erik: Some crazy weather up here yesterday.
[0:05:52 – 0:05:55] Erik: Some trees coming down, mildly unexpected.
[0:05:55 – 0:05:56] Erik: That was yesterday, right?
[0:05:56 – 0:05:58] Adam: Yeah, there was no warnings or nothing.
[0:05:58 – 0:06:00] Erik: Two days ago, two nights ago, I guess.
[0:06:00 – 0:06:05] Adam: But radar looked like it was going to be pretty rough, but there was not even a thunderstorm watch issued.
[0:06:06 – 0:06:17] Erik: Yeah, no, considering the amount of trees I’ve seen down on the shore, I don’t think I ever saw a warning or a wind, or maybe it was the lake did something weird at the last second.
[0:06:17 – 0:06:18] Adam: I think that’s what happened, yeah.
[0:06:18 – 0:06:22] Adam: Or it’s because they fired everybody who was supposed to be doing the warnings.
[0:06:22 – 0:06:23] Erik: It could be that, too.
[0:06:24 – 0:06:25] Adam: Get out!
[0:06:25 – 0:06:28] Erik: Yeah, we don’t need… AI can take care of this.
[0:06:28 – 0:06:30] Adam: Oh, PK got his jacket back, at least, though.
[0:06:30 – 0:06:30] Erik: Good.
[0:06:32 – 0:06:34] Erik: That’s an immaculate hairline that that man has.
[0:06:36 – 0:06:45] Erik: There will most likely be some random interjection of us watching this hockey game here, and you’re just going to have to bear with us.
[0:06:45 – 0:06:46] Erik: It’s that time of year.
[0:06:46 – 0:06:47] Adam: It’s okay.
[0:06:47 – 0:06:48] Erik: We’re doing it.
[0:06:49 – 0:07:01] Erik: There’s a potential we’re going to end with three out of the last four teams remaining in the Stanley Cup playoffs coming from north of the border, as it should be.
[0:07:02 – 0:07:13] Erik: There’s also potential it could go in the opposite direction, and both me and Adam are on the same page that we’re probably going to bounce on the whole tournament if that happens.
[0:07:14 – 0:07:15] Erik: I don’t need to see Florida play Carolina.
[0:07:16 – 0:07:17] Adam: I mean, I like Seth Jarvis.
[0:07:18 – 0:07:18] Adam: Oh, yeah?
[0:07:19 – 0:07:20] Adam: I’m a big Seth Jarvis fan.
[0:07:20 – 0:07:21] Adam: Big Seth Jarvis guy?
[0:07:21 – 0:07:21] Adam: Yeah.
[0:07:21 – 0:07:23] Adam: Otherwise, I could leave him.
[0:07:24 – 0:07:25] Erik: Yeah.
[0:07:26 – 0:07:30] Erik: Our only hope at this point is Edmonton unless Winnipeg and Toronto.
[0:07:30 – 0:07:31] Adam: We have plenty of hopes.
[0:07:31 – 0:07:33] Adam: We still have three hopes.
[0:07:33 – 0:07:41] Erik: Well, I mean, I think definitionally you can only say Edmonton is the only hope right now because neither of the two other teams have made it through.
[0:07:41 – 0:07:42] Adam: They’re bona fide.
[0:07:44 – 0:07:44] Adam: Yeah.
[0:07:44 – 0:07:48] Adam: But I don’t know.
[0:07:48 – 0:07:48] Adam: I still have hope.
[0:07:50 – 0:07:51] Adam: And, yeah, the game is on.
[0:07:52 – 0:07:52] Adam: The game is on.
[0:07:53 – 0:07:56] Adam: On the oldest crusty MacBook you’ve ever seen.
[0:07:57 – 0:08:06] Adam: This thing, I’ve never updated the Adobe on it, and I don’t even understand how it still works in this capacity, but, yeah, it’s kicking.
[0:08:06 – 0:08:10] Adam: It’s still streaming the game over here just fine in mild HD.
[0:08:10 – 0:08:37] Adam: mild hd mild hd uh there’s been some there’s i would like to say there’s definitely plenty of tumble homies live in the field tonight um out there it’s not a nice night to be out camping but i know a few hearty souls there for sure out camping tonight um they’re friends of the show so she who do you yeah you’re doing great yeah no it’s uh we’re sitting here wearing fingerless uh wool gloves and sitting by the heater
[0:08:38 – 0:08:38] Erik: That’s true.
[0:08:38 – 0:08:39] Erik: Yeah.
[0:08:40 – 0:08:45] Erik: Probably one could argue it might be warmer sitting next to an actual fire.
[0:08:45 – 0:08:46] Erik: Might be.
[0:08:46 – 0:08:48] Erik: But I’m feeling pretty comfortable.
[0:08:48 – 0:08:49] Erik: I’m layered up.
[0:08:50 – 0:08:51] Erik: It’s been much worse in here.
[0:08:51 – 0:08:52] Erik: I’m doing fine.
[0:08:53 – 0:08:54] Adam: Yeah, no doubt.
[0:08:54 – 0:08:57] Adam: Yeah, we did get a ton of rain with that storm, though.
[0:08:57 – 0:08:57] Adam: That was good.
[0:08:58 – 0:08:59] Adam: Put out the fires for now.
[0:08:59 – 0:08:59] Erik: For now.
[0:09:00 – 0:09:08] Erik: Who knows if any were sort of started that we will find out about next week when it dries out again and starts blowing.
[0:09:08 – 0:09:13] Erik: But everything’s greening up so much now, I feel like we’re kind of past that like…
[0:09:14 – 0:09:40] Erik: weird two-week window where the snow’s gone but there’s no green on the trees anywhere and it’s just that like winter crispy if you don’t get rain in those two weeks things can go that’s a troubling couple of weeks things can go sideways pretty quick and they did the pear tree’s got buds coming in now and yeah everything else is leafed out really nice yeah our orchard is almost flowering already oh my yeah just barely but it’s starting
[0:09:41 – 0:09:46] Adam: Yeah, that’s a couple hundred feet difference there in elevation and a lot more sun for you.
[0:09:46 – 0:09:47] Erik: Yeah.
[0:09:47 – 0:09:50] Adam: But, yeah, we’re a little bit behind you on that one.
[0:09:50 – 0:09:57] Erik: Yeah, I feel like we’re most likely going to be safe from any frosts by all accounts.
[0:09:58 – 0:10:07] Erik: I think we’re going to just stay barely above freezing, but I think anybody up over that hill, that North Shore Ridge, probably going to get a little frosty tonight.
[0:10:07 – 0:10:09] Adam: We’re bringing in the hanging basket tonight.
[0:10:09 – 0:10:10] Adam: It’s already in.
[0:10:11 – 0:10:14] Erik: I don’t foresee any actually accumulating snow.
[0:10:14 – 0:10:16] Erik: It just doesn’t seem like there’s going to be enough moisture.
[0:10:16 – 0:10:17] Adam: I texted you earlier.
[0:10:17 – 0:10:19] Adam: I said, are we going to have snow tonight?
[0:10:19 – 0:10:23] Erik: I could see snowflakes in the sky, but sticking?
[0:10:24 – 0:10:29] Adam: I won’t be surprised at all if at the end of the TCC we open the door and there’s a little bit of snow out there.
[0:10:30 – 0:10:32] Adam: But it ain’t going to last, obviously.
[0:10:33 – 0:10:34] Erik: No, that’s fine.
[0:10:35 – 0:10:38] Adam: And I did give the pets their tick treatment today.
[0:10:38 – 0:10:39] Adam: Oh, good.
[0:10:40 – 0:10:42] Adam: Let’s get that generic front line on there.
[0:10:43 – 0:10:43] Adam: Yeah.
[0:10:43 – 0:10:50] Adam: Make sure the pets are protected, because I think after this series of little frosts, then that might be the real start of the bugs.
[0:10:50 – 0:10:50] Adam: Yeah.
[0:10:52 – 0:10:56] Adam: I know the vet says to give it to them year-round, but what do I look like?
[0:10:57 – 0:10:57] Adam: I made up money here?
[0:10:58 – 0:10:59] Adam: There’s no ticks in the winter up here.
[0:11:00 – 0:11:00] Erik: No, that’s true.
[0:11:00 – 0:11:02] Adam: They can live under the snow.
[0:11:02 – 0:11:05] Adam: I’ve never once found a tick on me or the pets in the winter.
[0:11:06 – 0:11:09] Adam: They just get it in the warm months, which are starting.
[0:11:10 – 0:11:11] Adam: The rhubarb is looking great.
[0:11:11 – 0:11:12] Erik: Yep.
[0:11:12 – 0:11:14] Adam: I mean, it’s looking impeccable.
[0:11:15 – 0:11:17] Adam: And that is impervious to frost or freeze, apparently.
[0:11:17 – 0:11:18] Erik: That stuff’s crazy.
[0:11:19 – 0:11:20] Erik: Crazy hardy.
[0:11:20 – 0:11:22] Adam: Should I go throw a sheet over the rhubarb?
[0:11:22 – 0:11:22] Adam: No.
[0:11:23 – 0:11:23] Adam: Nah.
[0:11:23 – 0:11:24] Adam: It’s fine.
[0:11:25 – 0:11:27] Erik: We were chomping on a couple of stalks of rhubarb at our house.
[0:11:27 – 0:11:29] Erik: We already grabbed a little bit.
[0:11:29 – 0:11:29] Erik: Really?
[0:11:29 – 0:11:30] Erik: They’re like a foot tall.
[0:11:31 – 0:11:31] UNKNOWN: What?
[0:11:31 – 0:11:31] Erik: Yeah.
[0:11:32 – 0:11:33] Erik: It’s crazy.
[0:11:33 – 0:11:34] Erik: Holy moly, hot dog.
[0:11:34 – 0:11:37] Erik: We have chives, full-blown green chives in the garden already.
[0:11:39 – 0:11:40] Adam: I feel like you live in another country.
[0:11:41 – 0:11:43] Adam: You’re like 300 feet closer to the lake.
[0:11:43 – 0:11:45] Erik: Yeah, I’m a quarter of a mile away.
[0:11:45 – 0:11:47] Erik: Yeah, we were picking bananas today.
[0:11:48 – 0:11:50] Adam: Yeah, my avocados are looking pretty nice.
[0:11:50 – 0:11:52] Erik: Pineapples are coming in really nice.
[0:11:52 – 0:11:55] Erik: We should have a nice bumper crop of pineapple this year.
[0:11:55 – 0:11:56] Erik: Bumper crop.
[0:11:57 – 0:11:58] Erik: Yeah.
[0:11:58 – 0:12:00] Adam: There’s lobsters in your traps.
[0:12:01 – 0:12:04] Erik: Lobsters in the traps and the trees are heavy with pineapple.
[0:12:04 – 0:12:04] Adam: Yeah.
[0:12:04 – 0:12:06] Adam: I saw an orca.
[0:12:07 – 0:12:08] Adam: Gee whiz.
[0:12:09 – 0:12:09] Erik: Yeah.
[0:12:11 – 0:12:14] Erik: We got to figure out something to do at the end of this month, right?
[0:12:14 – 0:12:15] Erik: We do.
[0:12:15 – 0:12:15] Erik: Yeah.
[0:12:15 – 0:12:18] SPEAKER_00: Well, we can talk about that after Mike is still up in the air.
[0:12:18 – 0:12:21] Adam: Oh, I thought we were going to ask for a recommendation.
[0:12:21 – 0:12:23] Erik: Oh, tumblehomecast at gmail.com.
[0:12:23 – 0:12:24] Erik: Where should we go?
[0:12:24 – 0:12:26] Adam: Anybody know anything about Trouser Lake?
[0:12:26 – 0:12:26] Adam: May 29th.
[0:12:28 – 0:12:29] Erik: How long does it take?
[0:12:29 – 0:12:38] Erik: We’re thinking about either getting a Boundary Waters permit and doing an actual trip or just going and renting a cabin up on Dawson’s Campground.
[0:12:38 – 0:12:39] Erik: Dawson’s Trail Campground.
[0:12:39 – 0:12:39] Erik: They’re available.
[0:12:39 – 0:12:42] Erik: That have electric heat up on Pickerel.
[0:12:43 – 0:12:44] Erik: I’m feeling like that sounds kind of nice.
[0:12:44 – 0:12:45] Adam: Oh, my God.
[0:12:45 – 0:12:46] Erik: How did that not go in?
[0:12:46 – 0:12:47] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:12:47 – 0:12:48] Adam: Yikes.
[0:12:48 – 0:12:49] Adam: That’s a Vesna save right there.
[0:12:51 – 0:12:58] Adam: Yeah, they got Wi-Fi, electric heat, and comes with a personalized Quetico Monopoly board.
[0:12:58 – 0:13:00] Erik: Ooh, that would be fun.
[0:13:00 – 0:13:02] Erik: What would be Boardwalk in that scenario?
[0:13:05 – 0:13:05] Erik: Agnes?
[0:13:05 – 0:13:06] Erik: Sturgeon?
[0:13:06 – 0:13:06] Erik: Sturgeon.
[0:13:08 – 0:13:09] Erik: Sturgeon and Agnes.
[0:13:11 – 0:13:12] Adam: Sturgeon, for sure.
[0:13:12 – 0:13:15] Erik: That would be a fun game to come up with, actually.
[0:13:15 – 0:13:18] Erik: The four railroads could be four iconic passages.
[0:13:18 – 0:13:21] Adam: Chatterton Falls has to be a railroad.
[0:13:21 – 0:13:24] Erik: Well, the falls would be, I feel like, the utilities.
[0:13:24 – 0:13:25] Adam: Okay, yeah.
[0:13:25 – 0:13:27] Adam: So would the railroads be portages?
[0:13:27 – 0:13:28] Adam: Yeah, I think so.
[0:13:29 – 0:13:30] Erik: Have a smoke.
[0:13:30 – 0:13:32] Erik: Have a smoke.
[0:13:32 – 0:13:33] Erik: Eat them up.
[0:13:33 – 0:13:33] Erik: Yum, yum.
[0:13:33 – 0:13:34] Erik: Yum, yum.
[0:13:36 – 0:13:38] Adam: There, we just made that one for you there.
[0:13:38 – 0:13:40] Adam: You can have that one for free, Canada.
[0:13:41 – 0:13:41] Adam: Please make it happen.
[0:13:41 – 0:13:44] Adam: We will come up and we’ll rent a little cozy cabin.
[0:13:44 – 0:13:45] SPEAKER_00: Are those still available?
[0:13:46 – 0:13:47] SPEAKER_00: What’s going on up there?
[0:13:47 – 0:13:48] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:13:48 – 0:13:54] Erik: It looks like a month ago and it was like, this doesn’t really seem like I should be worried about getting something because everything’s available.
[0:13:55 – 0:13:55] Erik: Right.
[0:13:55 – 0:13:56] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:13:56 – 0:13:57] Erik: Is this a glitch in the system?
[0:13:57 – 0:13:58] Erik: Maybe it’s a glitch in the system.
[0:13:58 – 0:13:59] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:13:59 – 0:14:01] Erik: What’s the cheap side of the board?
[0:14:01 – 0:14:02] Erik: Like Marvin Gardens?
[0:14:03 – 0:14:04] Adam: No, Marvin Garden’s the yellow.
[0:14:05 – 0:14:06] Adam: Baltic.
[0:14:06 – 0:14:09] Erik: Baltic Avenue is like the slums of the board.
[0:14:09 – 0:14:10] Adam: Cache Bay.
[0:14:11 – 0:14:12] Adam: Maybe.
[0:14:13 – 0:14:13] Erik: I guess.
[0:14:13 – 0:14:13] Erik: Maybe.
[0:14:14 – 0:14:14] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:14:14 – 0:14:15] Adam: Cache Bay’s not the slums.
[0:14:15 – 0:14:16] Adam: It’s dangerous, though.
[0:14:16 – 0:14:22] Erik: What’s that little muck pond just north of the man chain?
[0:14:24 – 0:14:28] Erik: Bud or bisque or something?
[0:14:28 – 0:14:30] Adam: No, we always joke that it’s Bud or bisque, but it’s not.
[0:14:31 – 0:14:31] Erik: It’s not.
[0:14:31 – 0:14:37] Erik: I think those ones are up north, like almost flowing into Pickerel, the Bud Bisc chain.
[0:14:37 – 0:14:40] Adam: It’s either Bisc or Fran.
[0:14:41 – 0:14:41] Adam: Might be Fran.
[0:14:41 – 0:14:43] Erik: Fran is what’s on the other side of it.
[0:14:43 – 0:14:45] Erik: I think it might actually just be unnamed.
[0:14:45 – 0:14:46] Adam: Yeah, it is.
[0:14:46 – 0:14:49] Adam: That’s why we always joke that it’s something with a B. Yeah.
[0:14:50 – 0:14:50] Adam: Butt Lake.
[0:14:50 – 0:14:51] Adam: Yeah.
[0:14:51 – 0:14:52] Adam: It’s filled with mud.
[0:14:53 – 0:14:54] Adam: Mud butts.
[0:14:54 – 0:14:56] Erik: We’ll just go ahead and say the- That’s Baltic for sure.
[0:14:58 – 0:15:00] Erik: Puba is the Marvin Gardens.
[0:15:00 – 0:15:01] Adam: All right.
[0:15:01 – 0:15:01] Erik: Yeah.
[0:15:02 – 0:15:02] Adam: All right.
[0:15:02 – 0:15:03] Erik: What about Oliphant?
[0:15:04 – 0:15:04] Erik: Timothy?
[0:15:05 – 0:15:05] Erik: Oliphant.
[0:15:05 – 0:15:06] Erik: Or the lake?
[0:15:07 – 0:15:07] Adam: Both.
[0:15:07 – 0:15:07] Erik: Both.
[0:15:07 – 0:15:08] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:15:08 – 0:15:11] Erik: It’s like your mid-grade, halfway across the board.
[0:15:11 – 0:15:15] Adam: I went on Paddle Planner, and I just went and read the reviews of Blueberry Island.
[0:15:16 – 0:15:16] Adam: Oh, yeah?
[0:15:16 – 0:15:17] Adam: Yeah.
[0:15:17 – 0:15:24] Adam: And there’s a lot of kind of like, I don’t know, gets used too much, and not a great spot to park your boat in high water.
[0:15:24 – 0:15:27] Adam: So people are tough graders out there.
[0:15:27 – 0:15:29] Erik: I guess we were there during low water.
[0:15:29 – 0:15:30] Adam: We were there in perfect conditions.
[0:15:32 – 0:15:37] Erik: But I don’t know how you could grade that site as anything but pretty close to perfect.
[0:15:38 – 0:15:40] Adam: I think Oliphant would be like States.
[0:15:41 – 0:15:41] Erik: Sure.
[0:15:42 – 0:15:44] Adam: Or Connecticut.
[0:15:45 – 0:15:45] Erik: Yeah.
[0:15:46 – 0:15:46] Adam: What?
[0:15:47 – 0:15:48] Adam: Tennessee.
[0:15:48 – 0:15:49] Adam: The orange ones.
[0:15:49 – 0:15:51] Adam: Oliphant gets to be in the orange one.
[0:15:51 – 0:15:51] Erik: Okay.
[0:15:52 – 0:15:52] Erik: Yeah.
[0:15:53 – 0:15:55] Erik: And then what are the other four corners?
[0:15:56 – 0:15:56] Erik: One’s jail.
[0:15:57 – 0:15:58] Erik: One’s the go.
[0:15:59 – 0:16:00] Erik: And then what are the two other ones?
[0:16:03 – 0:16:05] Erik: Tomlomcast at gmail.com.
[0:16:05 – 0:16:08] Adam: Go jail and then go directly to jail.
[0:16:09 – 0:16:11] Adam: One of them is the jail and the other one just sends you to jail.
[0:16:11 – 0:16:13] Adam: And then the other one’s the free parking.
[0:16:13 – 0:16:14] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:16:14 – 0:16:16] Adam: Which you get all the cash in the middle that you’re not supposed to put in there.
[0:16:16 – 0:16:17] Adam: Yeah.
[0:16:17 – 0:16:19] Adam: But, yeah, especially if you’re playing the Canadian roles.
[0:16:20 – 0:16:24] Erik: Why don’t we ever just consider doing that as an easy board game?
[0:16:25 – 0:16:30] Erik: Because the chance and those cards would be fun to be canoe-based.
[0:16:31 – 0:16:32] Adam: Yeah, I don’t know.
[0:16:32 – 0:16:38] Adam: Ultimately, Monopoly is just a board game about our evil bullshit system.
[0:16:38 – 0:16:40] Erik: It’s unfortunate that we would.
[0:16:40 – 0:16:45] Erik: Yeah, we really shouldn’t co-opt the Quetico or Bouncy Waters into a Monopoly-based.
[0:16:45 – 0:16:51] Adam: But there is National Parks Edition Monopolies, which is the sickest stuff.
[0:16:51 – 0:16:53] Adam: It shouldn’t have happened.
[0:16:53 – 0:16:57] Erik: Well, I mean, don’t you have a copy of Manitowocopoly?
[0:16:57 – 0:16:58] Erik: I do, yeah.
[0:16:58 – 0:17:02] Erik: Which is like all of the small businesses in town buy a spot.
[0:17:03 – 0:17:04] Adam: Yeah, guess who’s the… DQ.
[0:17:05 – 0:17:07] Erik: DQ’s not in there.
[0:17:07 – 0:17:14] Adam: I thought there was… Miro Company is the boardwalk, and they no longer are in business in the United States.
[0:17:14 – 0:17:17] Adam: Yeah, and they’re not coming back no matter what.
[0:17:17 – 0:17:37] Adam: anytime soon no they’re owned by some conglomerate now and nobody’s making aluminum pans in Manitowoc and they never will ever again shucks no matter how badly you try and butcher the economy with your ill-brained ideas but there’s so many of those for like any tiny small town America where it’s like Don’s auto body
[0:17:38 – 0:17:39] Erik: And Pete’s Barber.
[0:17:40 – 0:17:43] Adam: How many different versions of Monopoly are out there?
[0:17:43 – 0:17:46] Adam: Probably a couple thousand easy.
[0:17:46 – 0:17:49] Adam: Every dumb little town in America has got their version of Monopoly for one.
[0:17:49 – 0:17:59] Adam: And that sort of makes sense because it’s sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, which is just a mini Monopoly man pretending to be fun and rich, but they’re not.
[0:18:00 – 0:18:01] Adam: But at least that sort of makes sense.
[0:18:01 – 0:18:05] Adam: The National Parks versions are sick and twisted.
[0:18:05 – 0:18:06] Erik: Kind of is.
[0:18:06 – 0:18:07] Erik: Doesn’t really translate as well.
[0:18:07 – 0:18:08] Adam: No, but it would be easy.
[0:18:09 – 0:18:09] Adam: Yeah.
[0:18:09 – 0:18:16] Adam: And it would, you know, it’s a lot of fun to talk about it because everybody knows Monopoly and we all love the park and know all our favorite lakes out there.
[0:18:16 – 0:18:19] Adam: So it’s like an easy peasy.
[0:18:19 – 0:18:22] Erik: And if you’re from one of those small towns, it’s like, oh, hey, look it.
[0:18:22 – 0:18:24] Erik: I know the name of that hardware store.
[0:18:27 – 0:18:28] Adam: I saw one.
[0:18:28 – 0:18:28] Adam: I saw one.
[0:18:28 – 0:18:31] Adam: It was like, I don’t want to say it was like superior Wisconsinopoly.
[0:18:32 – 0:18:34] Adam: And yeah, it was like none of that.
[0:18:34 – 0:18:35] Adam: There wasn’t even any businesses.
[0:18:35 – 0:18:37] Adam: It was just like random parks.
[0:18:37 – 0:18:38] Erik: Okay.
[0:18:38 – 0:18:43] Adam: And like streets like, like nobody wanted to sponsor a square on this.
[0:18:43 – 0:18:47] Adam: This is somebody got the good idea to make this and then I couldn’t sell any of the spots.
[0:18:47 – 0:18:51] Adam: So they just ended up like, yeah, it was just like random parks everywhere.
[0:18:51 – 0:18:52] Adam: That was the whole game.
[0:18:53 – 0:18:54] Adam: And then like city hall was boardwalk.
[0:18:55 – 0:18:56] Erik: City Hall.
[0:18:56 – 0:18:59] Adam: Nobody made any money off of this rendition of Monopoly.
[0:18:59 – 0:19:00] Adam: Sorry, Linda.
[0:19:00 – 0:19:01] Erik: Sorry, Superior.
[0:19:02 – 0:19:03] Erik: But it kind of makes sense.
[0:19:05 – 0:19:10] Erik: Let’s read some poems, shall we?
[0:19:10 – 0:19:14] Adam: I’m pretty excited to read about where people are going because they’re out there now.
[0:19:14 – 0:19:15] Erik: Yes.
[0:19:15 – 0:19:22] Adam: Even though last weekend was so nice and this weekend is looking pretty rough out there and people might get snowed on in their hammock tonight.
[0:19:22 – 0:19:29] Erik: I can see some folks in the park or parks in the hinterlands definitely getting a little snow.
[0:19:29 – 0:19:35] Erik: I don’t think anything on the shore is going to happen, but a light dusting on some of those deep inland lakes.
[0:19:35 – 0:19:35] Erik: Yeah.
[0:19:36 – 0:19:36] Erik: I’d be shocked.
[0:19:36 – 0:19:39] Adam: We got some clarity on our scheduling, you and I.
[0:19:40 – 0:19:43] Adam: And so now our near-term trip is coming into focus.
[0:19:44 – 0:19:44] Adam: Yeah.
[0:19:44 – 0:19:46] Adam: So I’m getting jazzed about that.
[0:19:46 – 0:19:46] SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
[0:19:48 – 0:19:49] Adam: And the peepers are going tonight.
[0:19:50 – 0:19:51] Erik: The peepers are going.
[0:19:51 – 0:19:52] Adam: Life is good.
[0:19:52 – 0:19:59] Erik: We’ll see how much longer they continue before they get fully shut down by a mild snap here.
[0:19:59 – 0:20:01] Adam: Yeah, they like that, though.
[0:20:01 – 0:20:01] Adam: It gets them going.
[0:20:02 – 0:20:02] Adam: Yeah.
[0:20:03 – 0:20:05] Adam: And that little bit of rain, it gets the streams flowing again.
[0:20:06 – 0:20:06] Adam: I’m jazzed.
[0:20:06 – 0:20:07] Adam: I’m a peeper.
[0:20:07 – 0:20:08] Adam: I’m going.
[0:20:08 – 0:20:09] Adam: More current.
[0:20:12 – 0:20:12] Erik: Well, we’re 20 minutes in.
[0:20:12 – 0:20:14] Erik: All right, now it’s time to get to the meat.
[0:20:14 – 0:20:16] Erik: We want to see how many of these we can get through.
[0:20:16 – 0:20:17] Erik: We might finish.
[0:20:17 – 0:20:17] Erik: We might not.
[0:20:17 – 0:20:18] Erik: Who knows?
[0:20:18 – 0:20:19] Adam: It’s hard to say.
[0:20:19 – 0:20:20] Erik: Who knows?
[0:20:20 – 0:20:21] Erik: We have no schedule at this point.
[0:20:22 – 0:20:24] Erik: From day to day, to week to week, to month to month.
[0:20:26 – 0:20:28] Adam: Life is good here in the tumble shed, Eric.
[0:20:29 – 0:20:29] Erik: Yeah.
[0:20:29 – 0:20:30] Erik: No complaints.
[0:20:31 – 0:20:31] Adam: I got no complaints at all.
[0:20:31 – 0:20:33] Erik: I got no complaints.
[0:20:33 – 0:20:34] Erik: Can’t complain.
[0:20:34 – 0:20:36] Erik: Live in the dream, as they say.
[0:20:39 – 0:20:41] Erik: Aldi won 18 days ago.
[0:20:41 – 0:20:43] Erik: I’m pretty sure this is where we’re picking up.
[0:20:43 – 0:20:44] Erik: Aldi won.
[0:20:45 – 0:20:45] Erik: He’s back.
[0:20:45 – 0:20:46] UNKNOWN: He’s back.
[0:20:46 – 0:20:47] Adam: And better than ever.
[0:20:47 – 0:20:48] Adam: Better than ever.
[0:20:49 – 0:20:50] Adam: Did Aldi ever leave?
[0:20:50 – 0:20:51] Erik: I don’t think so.
[0:20:54 – 0:20:54] Adam: Aldi won.
[0:20:55 – 0:20:56] Adam: He’s back in business.
[0:20:58 – 0:21:01] Adam: Aldi one, president of the Tumble Home Chamber of Commerce.
[0:21:02 – 0:21:03] Adam: Sorry, Aldi one.
[0:21:03 – 0:21:06] Adam: I wouldn’t put that Chamber of Commerce evil on you.
[0:21:06 – 0:21:07] Adam: Sorry, not sorry.
[0:21:07 – 0:21:08] Adam: In May.
[0:21:08 – 0:21:09] Adam: Sorry, you are the president.
[0:21:09 – 0:21:09] Erik: In May.
[0:21:10 – 0:21:12] Erik: With an early season test.
[0:21:13 – 0:21:17] Erik: Side pocket region will cross east to west.
[0:21:18 – 0:21:30] Erik: Then come August days, in late summer ways, Winchell Looper will be so super blessed.
[0:21:31 – 0:21:35] Erik: We should do this wait, wait, don’t tell me style where you have to try and guess the last word.
[0:21:35 – 0:21:36] Erik: Is this not a limerick?
[0:21:36 – 0:21:38] Erik: Yeah.
[0:21:38 – 0:21:43] Adam: I’m throwing my hat down in disgust at blowing that beautiful poem up.
[0:21:43 – 0:21:44] Adam: Sorry.
[0:21:44 – 0:21:45] Erik: You know the game though, right?
[0:21:45 – 0:21:46] Erik: Yeah.
[0:21:46 – 0:21:46] Erik: The wait, wait.
[0:21:47 – 0:21:48] Erik: It was always so hilarious.
[0:21:48 – 0:21:51] Erik: Most people would get it, but there was always like one out of 10 where they were like,
[0:21:52 – 0:21:53] SPEAKER_00: Snake?
[0:21:53 – 0:21:55] Erik: That doesn’t rhyme with anything in the poem.
[0:21:55 – 0:21:56] Erik: What are you talking about?
[0:21:56 – 0:21:57] Erik: Joan from Des Moines?
[0:21:57 – 0:22:00] Adam: I believe my answer did make sense, did it not?
[0:22:00 – 0:22:01] Erik: What did you say?
[0:22:02 – 0:22:02] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:22:02 – 0:22:04] Adam: You have to reread the whole poem now.
[0:22:04 – 0:22:06] Erik: Do I rewind the tape?
[0:22:06 – 0:22:07] Erik: Yeah.
[0:22:08 – 0:22:09] Erik: Test West Day’s Ways.
[0:22:11 – 0:22:12] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:22:12 – 0:22:14] Erik: Now I’m more confused than ever.
[0:22:14 – 0:22:15] Erik: And it was blessed.
[0:22:16 – 0:22:16] Erik: Blessed.
[0:22:17 – 0:22:17] Erik: Blessed.
[0:22:17 – 0:22:18] Adam: I don’t know, actually.
[0:22:18 – 0:22:18] Erik: Super.
[0:22:18 – 0:22:19] Erik: I said super.
[0:22:21 – 0:22:23] Erik: Oh, because of Winchell Looper.
[0:22:23 – 0:22:23] Adam: Looper.
[0:22:23 – 0:22:27] Adam: Yeah, it rhymed off Looper, but I was out of sequence.
[0:22:28 – 0:22:28] Adam: You were.
[0:22:28 – 0:22:31] Adam: That was ill-conceived notions.
[0:22:31 – 0:22:33] Adam: Going east to west, though, huh?
[0:22:33 – 0:22:34] Adam: They’re going against the grain.
[0:22:36 – 0:22:36] Adam: Side pocket.
[0:22:37 – 0:22:37] Adam: East to west.
[0:22:38 – 0:22:39] Erik: That’s kind of how we did it.
[0:22:40 – 0:22:41] Erik: We came east to west.
[0:22:41 – 0:22:41] Erik: Yeah, that’s true.
[0:22:41 – 0:22:43] Erik: We came from Lac La Croix.
[0:22:43 – 0:22:45] Adam: Yeah, you want to go Croy to pocket.
[0:22:45 – 0:22:47] Erik: Yeah, say hi to Toadie while you’re up there.
[0:22:47 – 0:22:48] Adam: And the Queet Gang.
[0:22:48 – 0:22:49] Erik: The Queet Gang.
[0:22:49 – 0:22:50] Erik: They’re long gone.
[0:22:50 – 0:22:50] Erik: Toadie’s around, though.
[0:22:53 – 0:22:55] Adam: Tony will always be there for you.
[0:22:56 – 0:22:57] Adam: He always will be there.
[0:22:58 – 0:23:04] Adam: Next up on the show, Portage Runner, 16 days ago with seven boxes of wine.
[0:23:05 – 0:23:06] Adam: Here we go.
[0:23:08 – 0:23:11] Adam: I’ve never read poems while wearing these fingerless gloves before.
[0:23:11 – 0:23:13] Adam: It’s the first time for everything.
[0:23:14 – 0:23:17] Adam: On May 31st, we depart across Sag.
[0:23:17 – 0:23:28] Adam: There will be no shortage of slapping the bag, hoping the weather is kind and doesn’t get hairy as we navigate our way through the forest to Cherry.
[0:23:29 – 0:23:31] Adam: Atop Thunder Point, we’ll plant our flag.
[0:23:32 – 0:23:33] Adam: The end.
[0:23:34 – 0:23:34] Erik: Hmm.
[0:23:34 – 0:23:37] Adam: I’m sorry, I probably ruined it by saying the end.
[0:23:37 – 0:23:38] Adam: Oh, you added that?
[0:23:38 – 0:23:38] Adam: Yeah.
[0:23:38 – 0:23:39] Adam: No.
[0:23:39 – 0:23:42] Erik: I was like, how are they possibly going to come out of that?
[0:23:43 – 0:23:46] Erik: But before you added the end, it was pretty good.
[0:23:47 – 0:23:48] Adam: Yeah, I messed it up.
[0:23:48 – 0:23:49] Adam: Sorry, Portage Runner.
[0:23:49 – 0:23:49] Adam: It was beautiful.
[0:23:50 – 0:23:51] Adam: It was beautiful.
[0:23:51 – 0:23:56] Adam: Any poem that features Thunder Point gets high marks here on the show.
[0:23:58 – 0:23:59] Adam: Can I go for two here?
[0:23:59 – 0:23:59] Erik: Yeah.
[0:24:00 – 0:24:04] Erik: It’s kind of a pain to turn that computer since we’re doubled up so much here.
[0:24:04 – 0:24:08] Erik: So might as well just take advantage of it being turned to your direction right now.
[0:24:08 – 0:24:09] Adam: I’m the only hot dog.
[0:24:09 – 0:24:11] Adam: All right.
[0:24:11 – 0:24:12] Adam: I’m going to read this next.
[0:24:13 – 0:24:14] Adam: Oh, my God.
[0:24:14 – 0:24:19] Adam: I’m going to read this next poem for Mark Shifley’s father.
[0:24:20 – 0:24:20] Erik: Wow.
[0:24:21 – 0:24:22] Erik: Well, hopefully it’s good.
[0:24:22 – 0:24:23] Adam: Barry.
[0:24:23 – 0:24:24] Erik: Brad.
[0:24:24 – 0:24:24] Adam: Brad Shifley.
[0:24:25 – 0:24:25] Adam: Brad Shifley.
[0:24:27 – 0:24:33] Adam: Next up on the show, Pequod Seapod, dear friend of the show and of the Winnipeg Jets.
[0:24:33 – 0:24:35] Adam: So that’s seven boxes of wine.
[0:24:36 – 0:24:37] Adam: I have two trips planned.
[0:24:38 – 0:24:43] Adam: The first is a big loop from Moose to Lake One through Fraser, Thomas, Alice, Insula, etc.
[0:24:43 – 0:24:45] Adam: over the week preceding July 4th.
[0:24:46 – 0:24:50] Adam: This will be with three guys who I introduced to the park a few years ago.
[0:24:51 – 0:24:54] Adam: It’s our first trip back together and their second trip ever.
[0:24:54 – 0:24:57] Adam: We’re all completely too amped for it, being two months away still.
[0:24:58 – 0:25:00] Adam: Y’all know what the other trip is.
[0:25:00 – 0:25:01] Adam: Oh, no.
[0:25:01 – 0:25:01] Adam: Oh.
[0:25:03 – 0:25:05] Adam: It didn’t rhyme at all.
[0:25:06 – 0:25:08] Adam: I’m really messing up these poems.
[0:25:09 – 0:25:10] Adam: That one’s on me, too.
[0:25:10 – 0:25:11] Adam: Cadence is off.
[0:25:11 – 0:25:12] Adam: I’m sorry.
[0:25:14 – 0:25:14] Adam: Yeah.
[0:25:14 – 0:25:15] Adam: I can’t hear the violin.
[0:25:16 – 0:25:17] Adam: It’s not making any sense.
[0:25:18 – 0:25:20] Adam: And my cadence is all off.
[0:25:20 – 0:25:21] Adam: Pequod.
[0:25:21 – 0:25:24] Adam: So the other trip, I believe, is the tumble on me trip.
[0:25:24 – 0:25:25] Erik: I would imagine.
[0:25:26 – 0:25:28] Erik: Otherwise, he’s making quite an assumption.
[0:25:29 – 0:25:32] Adam: Sounds like it’s going to be a pretty good one.
[0:25:32 – 0:25:32] Erik: Yeah.
[0:25:33 – 0:25:53] Erik: can’t wait i’ll be there i guess i’ll be there too now i haven’t said that yet uh officially uh into a microphone i’ve announced that uh it’s on the appropriate yeah you’re on the did you get your forms did i get my forms your phasmata forms forms it like what like does he mail something out
[0:25:54 – 0:25:55] Adam: You’ve got to fill out your official paperwork.
[0:25:56 – 0:26:01] Erik: Yeah, he mails it like an NDA or like what?
[0:26:02 – 0:26:02] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:26:03 – 0:26:07] Adam: Serial likeness can’t be used on a legal Monopoly board.
[0:26:08 – 0:26:13] Adam: Tomohomi Trip 25 Monopoly will be licensed.
[0:26:13 – 0:26:16] Erik: The thick manila envelope should be coming your way shortly.
[0:26:16 – 0:26:16] Erik: Post haste.
[0:26:17 – 0:26:17] Erik: Post haste.
[0:26:17 – 0:26:19] Erik: Yeah.
[0:26:19 – 0:26:24] Erik: No, I haven’t received any of that, but I feel like I’m signed up.
[0:26:24 – 0:26:27] Erik: If I’m not, tumblehomecasts at gmail.com.
[0:26:29 – 0:26:35] Adam: I think once you fill out the form, then the painter will begin work on your oil portrait.
[0:26:35 – 0:26:36] Erik: Oh, nice.
[0:26:36 – 0:26:42] Adam: Yeah, so you’re going to want to get that form filled out soon now that you’ve made sure you’re going to be able to make it.
[0:26:43 – 0:26:48] Adam: Your schedule’s cleared up pretty nicely, and it’s going to be a great trip because you’re coming along.
[0:26:50 – 0:26:52] Adam: Are we going to be allowed to be on the same permit, though?
[0:26:53 – 0:26:53] Adam: Why?
[0:26:53 – 0:26:54] Adam: It’s a double permit trip.
[0:26:55 – 0:26:55] Erik: What do you mean?
[0:26:56 – 0:26:57] Adam: Well, I don’t know.
[0:26:57 – 0:26:59] Adam: How are teams drawn on this?
[0:26:59 – 0:27:02] Adam: That’s what I’ve been thinking about this week.
[0:27:02 – 0:27:04] Adam: How are the teams being drawn up for the Tumulhumi trip?
[0:27:04 – 0:27:08] Erik: Well, I don’t really know if I necessarily want to go on the trip if I can’t be in a canoe with you.
[0:27:08 – 0:27:10] Adam: I’m pretty sure we’re allowed to paddle together.
[0:27:11 – 0:27:11] Erik: I would hope so.
[0:27:12 – 0:27:16] Erik: Yeah, we have two canoes, and we’re going to be in one, and the other one is up for grabs.
[0:27:16 – 0:27:17] Adam: Not on Rib Lake, though.
[0:27:18 – 0:27:19] Erik: We can’t paddle on Rib together?
[0:27:20 – 0:27:20] Adam: Never again.
[0:27:20 – 0:27:21] Adam: Never again.
[0:27:22 – 0:27:23] Erik: Never speak of it again.
[0:27:23 – 0:27:23] Erik: Never again.
[0:27:25 – 0:27:28] Adam: So we’re going to have to make some trades for that leg of the journey.
[0:27:28 – 0:27:29] Adam: But otherwise, yeah.
[0:27:29 – 0:27:33] Adam: What kind of butt save was that?
[0:27:35 – 0:27:36] Erik: Fishing with dynamite.
[0:27:39 – 0:27:40] Erik: We’ve got a couple of comments here.
[0:27:40 – 0:27:52] Erik: The first one is a wall of text, and the second one is an edit to that, making it so it actually seems like more of a… What?
[0:27:52 – 0:27:53] Erik: Oh, my God.
[0:27:55 – 0:27:56] Erik: I don’t know if that was going to go in.
[0:27:56 – 0:28:03] Erik: That angle was way… That should have been an easy, easy goal if you would have just made the angle a little better.
[0:28:03 – 0:28:04] Erik: Who shot that?
[0:28:04 – 0:28:05] Erik: Mason Appleton.
[0:28:06 – 0:28:07] Erik: Well, that makes sense.
[0:28:07 – 0:28:08] Erik: All right, Fishing with Dynamite.
[0:28:09 – 0:28:17] Erik: Yeah, the first one does not strike me as looking much like a poem, but you cleaned it up from 15 days ago to six days ago.
[0:28:17 – 0:28:18] Erik: Oh, my.
[0:28:18 – 0:28:21] Erik: I have no clue what Reddit did to my format, but let’s try that again.
[0:28:23 – 0:28:23] Erik: Nice.
[0:28:23 – 0:28:25] Erik: This looks much more easily readable.
[0:28:25 – 0:28:27] Adam: Oh, okay.
[0:28:27 – 0:28:28] Adam: Version 2.
[0:28:28 – 0:28:29] Erik: Version 2.
[0:28:29 – 0:28:29] Erik: V2.
[0:28:30 – 0:28:32] Erik: Starting the year off on the western side.
[0:28:33 – 0:28:35] Erik: Wish we triangle with wet foot.
[0:28:36 – 0:28:37] Erik: Walleyes to be caught.
[0:28:37 – 0:28:39] Erik: Walleyes to be cooked.
[0:28:39 – 0:28:42] Erik: Tripping with my bro fills me with pride.
[0:28:43 – 0:28:53] Erik: Hoping for good weather and better times, later ram to canoe around and look for big lake trout in hopes that I will hook.
[0:28:54 – 0:29:00] Erik: A grand slam, the very first of its kind, finishing the loop trip on Bower Trout.
[0:29:01 – 0:29:04] Erik: Tripping solo, hoping not to be bound.
[0:29:05 – 0:29:08] Erik: By wind or by storms or by pelting rain.
[0:29:09 – 0:29:10] Erik: If it happens, it happens.
[0:29:11 – 0:29:11] Erik: I won’t pout.
[0:29:12 – 0:29:16] Erik: September casts and blasts with wife and hound.
[0:29:17 – 0:29:21] Erik: I love the woods more than I can explain.
[0:29:24 – 0:29:44] Adam: nice nice yeah the first uh i don’t know if i would have read it with that kind of um yeah maybe the one i read just got um smashed yeah maybe smashed in the paragraph form but i still should i like had the grace to understand the poem in it though yeah but uh anyways that was very nicely read thank you
[0:29:45 – 0:29:46] Erik: Oh, very nicely read.
[0:29:46 – 0:29:46] Adam: Yeah.
[0:29:47 – 0:29:47] Erik: No credit to the writer.
[0:29:48 – 0:29:50] Erik: The reader, though, impeccable.
[0:29:51 – 0:29:56] Adam: It was really nice, especially since you were holding that candle while you read that one.
[0:29:56 – 0:29:56] Adam: Yes.
[0:29:56 – 0:29:57] Adam: Turn the lights out.
[0:29:57 – 0:29:59] Erik: It’s just a flickering candle in here.
[0:30:00 – 0:30:02] Adam: More people got to bring candles on their trips this year.
[0:30:03 – 0:30:04] Adam: Let’s make this the year of the candle.
[0:30:04 – 0:30:11] Erik: Yeah, especially wait until it gets nice and dry and then get a bunch of little tea candles everywhere.
[0:30:11 – 0:30:20] Erik: Basically setting it up like either you’re living in medieval times where that’s the only form of light or you were about to propose to your significant other.
[0:30:20 – 0:30:22] Adam: Let’s fucking make this the year of the torch.
[0:30:23 – 0:30:23] Adam: Sorry.
[0:30:24 – 0:30:25] Adam: Sorry.
[0:30:25 – 0:30:26] Adam: We can’t bleep that one.
[0:30:26 – 0:30:28] Adam: We should make this the year of the torch, though.
[0:30:29 – 0:30:29] Adam: Forget candles.
[0:30:30 – 0:30:31] Adam: Let’s get torches going again.
[0:30:31 – 0:30:32] Erik: What kind of torches?
[0:30:32 – 0:30:33] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:30:33 – 0:30:36] Adam: I need to go and do some YouTube research on how to make a proper torch.
[0:30:37 – 0:30:38] Erik: Proper torch.
[0:30:38 – 0:30:44] Adam: I did find a couple nice deposits of tree sap today, so perhaps that can come in handy.
[0:30:45 – 0:30:49] Adam: I’ll go into Minecraft to find the right recipe for how to make a torch.
[0:30:50 – 0:30:54] Adam: You need one stick and some charcoal, I think.
[0:30:55 – 0:30:56] Adam: Maybe some twine?
[0:30:58 – 0:30:59] Adam: Anybody out there know?
[0:30:59 – 0:31:02] Adam: Hit us up on the email, tumblehomecast at gmail.com.
[0:31:02 – 0:31:03] Adam: How do you make a torch?
[0:31:04 – 0:31:07] Erik: Like an Indiana Jones style, like, cavern exploring.
[0:31:07 – 0:31:10] Adam: Yeah, I want it to last at least for 45 minutes.
[0:31:11 – 0:31:11] Adam: Yeah.
[0:31:12 – 0:31:13] SPEAKER_00: Exactly.
[0:31:13 – 0:31:15] Adam: It’s got to make noise when you’re moving it.
[0:31:15 – 0:31:19] Adam: That’s how ripping this torch is lighting up the cavern.
[0:31:19 – 0:31:20] Erik: Ripping torches.
[0:31:20 – 0:31:22] Erik: I need to see the stalactites.
[0:31:23 – 0:31:24] Erik: I’ll read another one here, huh?
[0:31:24 – 0:31:25] Adam: All right, please.
[0:31:25 – 0:31:26] Erik: We got exhausted.
[0:31:26 – 0:31:29] Erik: Horty.
[0:31:30 – 0:31:33] Erik: This July, we’re going in via John Lake.
[0:31:34 – 0:31:35] Adam: Hey, there we go.
[0:31:36 – 0:31:36] Adam: He’s pointing.
[0:31:37 – 0:31:40] Erik: Biters and steaks we will make.
[0:31:42 – 0:31:46] Erik: Our goal is maybe to base camp on Gogebic.
[0:31:47 – 0:31:50] Erik: What’s going to rhyme with Gogebic?
[0:31:51 – 0:31:56] Erik: And then take a hike somewhere scenic.
[0:31:56 – 0:31:57] Erik: Scenic.
[0:31:57 – 0:31:57] Erik: Damn.
[0:31:57 – 0:31:58] Erik: Wow.
[0:31:58 – 0:31:59] Adam: So good.
[0:32:00 – 0:32:02] Erik: You’re a poet and you don’t even know it, Exhausted Horty.
[0:32:04 – 0:32:12] Erik: We thought about going to the falls and hearing the water sounds, but vetoed that to avoid the 4th of July crowds.
[0:32:14 – 0:32:18] Erik: All and all a good time should be had, even if the weather proves to be bad.
[0:32:19 – 0:32:24] Erik: Very nice, although I don’t know if crowds rhymes with sounds.
[0:32:24 – 0:32:24] Erik: We’ll allow it.
[0:32:25 – 0:32:25] Erik: I’ll allow it.
[0:32:26 – 0:32:26] Erik: What are we going to do?
[0:32:26 – 0:32:27] Erik: Not allow it?
[0:32:28 – 0:32:28] Erik: You’re banned.
[0:32:29 – 0:32:30] Adam: It’s too late now.
[0:32:32 – 0:32:37] Adam: You’re banned unless you bring some really nice torches along, then you’re back in.
[0:32:37 – 0:32:40] Erik: Yeah, unless you’ve got a really good torch recipe that you can share with us.
[0:32:40 – 0:32:41] Adam: Please hit us up.
[0:32:41 – 0:32:42] Adam: I need to know the torch recipe.
[0:32:42 – 0:32:44] Adam: Hit me up on Blue Sky.
[0:32:44 – 0:32:44] Adam: Yeah.
[0:32:45 – 0:32:51] Erik: Yeah, what’s the proper mixture of kerosene and styrofoam that we need to get together here?
[0:32:52 – 0:32:54] Adam: Oh, God.
[0:32:54 – 0:32:58] Adam: I need a bag of fertilizer.
[0:32:58 – 0:32:59] Adam: Oh, no.
[0:33:00 – 0:33:00] Adam: Help.
[0:33:01 – 0:33:04] Adam: What you’re going to want to do is get a truckload of fertilizer.
[0:33:04 – 0:33:05] Adam: Now we’re talking.
[0:33:05 – 0:33:06] Erik: Yeah.
[0:33:06 – 0:33:07] Adam: All right.
[0:33:08 – 0:33:12] Adam: Next up on the show, dear friend of the show, Englars.
[0:33:12 – 0:33:13] Adam: Englars.
[0:33:13 – 0:33:16] Adam: 12 days ago with seven boxes of wine.
[0:33:16 – 0:33:21] Adam: And this one’s properly formatted, so I think we’re going to do just fine.
[0:33:22 – 0:33:35] Adam: From Nina Moose, where entry’s gentle grace Begins the paddle towards Lac La Croix’s gleam Through portages a steady rhythmic pace To Tiger Bay, a camper’s tranquil dream
[0:33:37 – 0:33:50] Adam: The ancient whispers on the painted stone Of hands long past a story to unfold, While curtain falls where rushing waters moan, A wilder beauty will before you bold.
[0:33:51 – 0:34:04] Adam: Then later north from Poplar’s friendly shore To horseshoes calm with sun and youthful band, A shared canoe where laughter will outpour, And hopes held high for moose in that grand land.
[0:34:05 – 0:34:12] Adam: May every stroke and sighting bring you cheer like tales we share for all tumble homies to hear.
[0:34:15 – 0:34:16] Adam: We’re nodding.
[0:34:16 – 0:34:17] Adam: Nice.
[0:34:17 – 0:34:20] Adam: We’re nodding with satisfaction here in the tumble shed.
[0:34:21 – 0:34:22] Adam: We hear it.
[0:34:22 – 0:34:22] Adam: Yeah.
[0:34:22 – 0:34:23] Adam: We do hear it.
[0:34:25 – 0:34:49] Adam: anglars anglars with uh the poet laureate of the of the thread so far tom moose on the shore big timer right three days ago right before cascade lodge again what are they doing down there it’s like i’ve heard a few of these now yeah big lake moose trying to get away from the stifling inland early may heat i don’t know they’re thirsty
[0:34:49 – 0:34:50] Erik: Just coming down for a drink.
[0:34:51 – 0:34:52] Adam: I’m just coming down for a little lick.
[0:34:52 – 0:34:53] Adam: Just a sip.
[0:34:53 – 0:34:54] Adam: Give me a lick of that wave.
[0:34:54 – 0:34:57] Adam: Just a sip and some waffle fries.
[0:34:57 – 0:34:59] Adam: And a waffle fry.
[0:34:59 – 0:35:02] Adam: I heard they got a real nice gelato.
[0:35:02 – 0:35:05] Erik: A really nice gelato down there at the old Cascade Lodge.
[0:35:05 – 0:35:05] Erik: Yep.
[0:35:06 – 0:35:08] Adam: These state parks are really branching out.
[0:35:10 – 0:35:14] Adam: That big new one down there by Highway 1, they got like a latte shop in there.
[0:35:14 – 0:35:15] Adam: The thing is real A+.
[0:35:16 – 0:35:18] Adam: If anybody doesn’t know, you know what I’m talking about?
[0:35:18 – 0:35:22] Adam: The brand new state park down by where Highway 1 meets 61 there.
[0:35:22 – 0:35:24] Erik: It’s not a new state park.
[0:35:24 – 0:35:25] Erik: It’s just a new facility.
[0:35:25 – 0:35:27] Adam: The new headquarters there, yeah.
[0:35:27 – 0:35:27] Erik: Yeah, what is that?
[0:35:28 – 0:35:28] Erik: Tedaguchi?
[0:35:28 – 0:35:29] Erik: Tedaguchi.
[0:35:29 – 0:35:33] Erik: That huge, it’s like a rest area slash state park headquarters.
[0:35:33 – 0:35:34] Adam: It’s very nice.
[0:35:34 – 0:35:35] Erik: I’ve actually never been in there.
[0:35:35 – 0:35:36] Adam: Really?
[0:35:36 – 0:35:36] Adam: Yeah.
[0:35:36 – 0:35:40] Adam: They have the nicest family restrooms I’ve ever seen.
[0:35:40 – 0:35:40] Adam: Oh, nice.
[0:35:40 – 0:35:41] Adam: And there’s like a fancy.
[0:35:41 – 0:35:44] Erik: You guys all go in there and just take big, long, hard.
[0:35:44 – 0:35:45] Erik: All as one.
[0:35:45 – 0:35:46] Adam: Yeah.
[0:35:46 – 0:35:48] Adam: All as one.
[0:35:48 – 0:35:52] Adam: It’s like perfectly halfway from Duluth to our house, basically, too.
[0:35:52 – 0:35:59] Adam: So with both kids on our way home from the hospital, we stopped there for a halfway point stop.
[0:35:59 – 0:36:02] Adam: Plus, they have a really nice coffee shop with really good stickers, too.
[0:36:02 – 0:36:04] Erik: Another guy that did the HVAC for that building.
[0:36:05 – 0:36:05] Erik: Oh, yeah.
[0:36:05 – 0:36:06] Erik: Could you tell it was?
[0:36:07 – 0:36:08] Erik: Very well ventilated.
[0:36:08 – 0:36:09] Erik: Very well heated and or cooled.
[0:36:09 – 0:36:10] Adam: I’m telling you, it’s super nice.
[0:36:10 – 0:36:15] Adam: Yeah, it feels cozy and clear at the same time.
[0:36:15 – 0:36:16] Erik: Yeah, nice.
[0:36:17 – 0:36:21] Adam: Next up on the show, dear friend of the show, AcidDiarrhea612.
[0:36:21 – 0:36:22] Adam: Dearest friend.
[0:36:23 – 0:36:24] Adam: So dear to us.
[0:36:25 – 0:36:27] Adam: There once was a man from Nord-East.
[0:36:27 – 0:36:28] Adam: Here we go.
[0:36:28 – 0:36:30] Adam: Who blasted the Rhea like a beast.
[0:36:30 – 0:36:31] Adam: Oh, no.
[0:36:31 – 0:36:39] Adam: He hiked the BRT and drank Labrador tea and in September had a tumble-oh-me feast.
[0:36:40 – 0:36:41] Adam: There we go.
[0:36:42 – 0:36:43] Erik: Yeah, boy, that’s not even been a…
[0:36:44 – 0:36:46] Adam: I thought it was going to end way looter than that.
[0:36:46 – 0:37:12] Erik: yeah well i mean it started in the typical fashion uh three on two here we go pop and lock oh my god all right all right it did that did have the start of something that could have gone much dirtier but thank you oh it’s not even is it did acid diarrhea have to like re-up their did they always have the 612 added on there
[0:37:12 – 0:37:12] Adam: I don’t know.
[0:37:12 – 0:37:15] Adam: There might be actually like multiple acid diarrheas now.
[0:37:15 – 0:37:15] Adam: Oh, no.
[0:37:15 – 0:37:17] Adam: I don’t know what to believe.
[0:37:17 – 0:37:19] Adam: I can’t keep track of all these acid diarrheas.
[0:37:19 – 0:37:21] Adam: Too many diarrheas out there.
[0:37:22 – 0:37:24] Adam: It’s like the Bannocks and the Hortys.
[0:37:24 – 0:37:26] Adam: I think there’s like multiples now.
[0:37:26 – 0:37:27] Erik: There are a lot of Bannocks for sure.
[0:37:27 – 0:37:28] Erik: Yeah.
[0:37:28 – 0:37:35] Adam: You know, I would take it as a point of flattery and respect and honor.
[0:37:35 – 0:37:36] Erik: Yeah.
[0:37:36 – 0:37:37] Erik: First time maybe here?
[0:37:37 – 0:37:39] Erik: Northern underscore sender.
[0:37:40 – 0:37:40] Erik: First time?
[0:37:41 – 0:37:43] Adam: Yeah, welcome to the show.
[0:37:43 – 0:37:44] Adam: Welcome to the show.
[0:37:44 – 0:37:45] Adam: You did it.
[0:37:46 – 0:37:47] Adam: Yoo-hoo, you’re doing great.
[0:37:48 – 0:37:48] Erik: Yeah.
[0:37:48 – 0:37:52] Erik: Five friends, three old, two new, and three canoes.
[0:37:53 – 0:37:55] Erik: Three hail from mountains of Colorado.
[0:37:56 – 0:37:59] Erik: One is local and one comes bearing booze.
[0:38:01 – 0:38:04] Erik: Three first-timers and a route with bravado.
[0:38:04 – 0:38:08] Erik: We start mid-May with challenge in our way.
[0:38:08 – 0:38:10] Erik: We will depart from Little Indian Sioux.
[0:38:12 – 0:38:19] Erik: Through Paw Ness and landing in Little Loon Bay, 23 portages easy for this crew.
[0:38:19 – 0:38:22] Erik: Then we paddle on to Lac La Croix.
[0:38:22 – 0:38:26] Erik: We’ll cast for Lake Trout, gleaming silver fire.
[0:38:27 – 0:38:33] Erik: We’ll see the Pictows with a sense of joy and share our stories as the flames rise higher.
[0:38:35 – 0:38:37] Erik: We’ll all remember magic made this May.
[0:38:37 – 0:38:43] Erik: The lasting spell of BWCA.
[0:38:43 – 0:38:48] Adam: You should have kicked that one over to me and I would have been like, BWCP?
[0:38:49 – 0:38:49] Erik: What?
[0:38:49 – 0:38:51] Erik: What the hell is wrong with this guy?
[0:38:51 – 0:38:52] Erik: It doesn’t rhyme.
[0:38:54 – 0:39:02] Adam: Trevor just handed me a note while you were reading that and it says this is the first ever usage of the term bravado on Tumble Home.
[0:39:02 – 0:39:04] Adam: Especially rhyming with Colorado.
[0:39:04 – 0:39:05] Adam: Beautiful.
[0:39:06 – 0:39:08] Adam: 290 episodes in and we finally got to bravado.
[0:39:08 – 0:39:11] Adam: I feel like confetti should have probably rained down from the tumble shed ceiling.
[0:39:11 – 0:39:41] Adam: yeah as the uh launched yeah the the full transition into being able to just allow ai to do this podcast for us has completed now that’s the only word waiting yeah now that they got bravado we got all the different sounds possible every other word in the english dictionary has been uttered just waiting for bravado hey bravado it’s got the bravado no it’s got the vado it’s not just bravado
[0:39:42 – 0:39:46] Erik: Thanks for that unexpected cheersing of a mostly empty Labatt Blue.
[0:39:46 – 0:39:52] Adam: I best be getting a fresh beer because this one’s going to be empty after that bravado.
[0:39:52 – 0:39:54] Adam: That was a high stick.
[0:39:56 – 0:40:01] Erik: It’s the last three minutes of a tie elimination game.
[0:40:01 – 0:40:05] Erik: You could literally rip the jaw off a man and they won’t call it.
[0:40:06 – 0:40:08] Erik: Speaking of jaws, square jaw 77.
[0:40:10 – 0:40:10] Erik: Welcome.
[0:40:10 – 0:40:11] Erik: Welcome back.
[0:40:12 – 0:40:12] Erik: You did it.
[0:40:12 – 0:40:18] Erik: There once was a paddler named Square Jaw who liked to search the woods for bear paw.
[0:40:19 – 0:40:26] Erik: Though crew magnificent and some firsties in tow, the routes this year might be different.
[0:40:27 – 0:40:38] Erik: Starting the year’s course will be an entry point of Little Indian Sioux North to Gabey We Go, the hard way around through Lynx, Ruby, and Hustler Abound.
[0:40:39 – 0:40:44] Erik: Ending at Moose Portage River entry point, this five-day trip will not disappoint.
[0:40:45 – 0:40:46] Erik: I would have gotten that one for sure.
[0:40:46 – 0:40:47] Erik: You were ready for it.
[0:40:47 – 0:40:47] Erik: I was.
[0:40:48 – 0:40:51] Erik: In summer, we brag a mudrow permit we bagged.
[0:40:51 – 0:40:55] Erik: With brother-in-law and son in August, the wife did cry.
[0:40:55 – 0:40:58] Erik: If not interesting, she will die.
[0:40:59 – 0:41:02] Erik: The falls will be highlighting our eye.
[0:41:03 – 0:41:04] Erik: Two fall trips are planned.
[0:41:04 – 0:41:07] Erik: The first is a base trip on IMA.
[0:41:08 – 0:41:10] Erik: Through Snowbank, we’ll be grand.
[0:41:11 – 0:41:17] Erik: The second will lead to future echoes, as it’s with the Tumble Homey Fellows.
[0:41:18 – 0:41:21] Erik: And we will likely be timeless as well.
[0:41:22 – 0:41:27] Erik: My rhymes are rusty, my gear is tried and crusty, but my soul belongs in the park.
[0:41:28 – 0:41:34] Erik: Keep your paddle wet, stow your phone, and remember that you never peak alone.
[0:41:36 – 0:41:41] Erik: Your rhymes may have been rusty, but you really wrapped it up magnificently there, Squarejaw.
[0:41:41 – 0:41:43] Adam: You really wowed us in the final act.
[0:41:43 – 0:41:43] Erik: Yeah.
[0:41:44 – 0:41:45] Erik: Very nicely done.
[0:41:46 – 0:41:55] Erik: It does have me very excited now that I know I am coming along on the second annual Tumble Homey trip.
[0:41:56 – 0:41:57] Erik: I’m very excited for that.
[0:41:57 – 0:41:59] Erik: Very excited for everyone involved.
[0:41:59 – 0:42:02] Adam: Perhaps this time it can be different.
[0:42:03 – 0:42:06] SPEAKER_00: Maybe this time we could be happy.
[0:42:07 – 0:42:08] Erik: Well, I’ve got you scrolled up here.
[0:42:08 – 0:42:17] Erik: I’m sure Scotty Baldwin’s got some lewd Nancy Mondalexis honey bear rhymes coming your way, but I’ll let you deal with that.
[0:42:17 – 0:42:19] Adam: We’re going to pass the test, I think.
[0:42:20 – 0:42:20] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[0:42:21 – 0:42:22] Adam: You passed the test.
[0:42:22 – 0:42:23] Erik: It’s going overtime.
[0:42:23 – 0:42:25] Erik: I told you at the beginning of this period it was going.
[0:42:25 – 0:42:26] Erik: Oh, no.
[0:42:26 – 0:42:27] Erik: No.
[0:42:27 – 0:42:30] Erik: They’re not going to call that as a penalty shot, are they?
[0:42:31 – 0:42:32] Erik: It’s just going to be a code.
[0:42:32 – 0:42:35] Adam: Good old-fashioned slashing on Mark Shifley.
[0:42:36 – 0:42:37] Adam: Oh, my God.
[0:42:37 – 0:42:37] Adam: I don’t like that.
[0:42:38 – 0:42:39] Adam: What was that garbage?
[0:42:40 – 0:42:44] Adam: Next up on the show, dear friend of the show, Scotty Baldwin, 10 days ago.
[0:42:44 – 0:42:46] Erik: I’m going to dip Mandy in honey.
[0:42:46 – 0:42:48] Adam: Six boxes of wine.
[0:42:51 – 0:42:54] Adam: Beijing calls in the month of June.
[0:42:54 – 0:42:58] Adam: July will bring meads and the call of the loon.
[0:42:59 – 0:43:01] Adam: August is Rockwood with family in tow.
[0:43:02 – 0:43:04] Adam: My ladies would rather the glamping, you know.
[0:43:05 – 0:43:08] Adam: September, I’m meeting new goons.
[0:43:09 – 0:43:09] Adam: Oh, boy.
[0:43:09 – 0:43:10] Adam: Is that us?
[0:43:12 – 0:43:13] Adam: No, we’ve already met.
[0:43:13 – 0:43:16] Adam: Well, I know, but like, is that the trip he’s referring to?
[0:43:17 – 0:43:17] Adam: I hope so.
[0:43:18 – 0:43:18] Adam: Yeah.
[0:43:19 – 0:43:20] Adam: Scotty Baldwin’s going.
[0:43:21 – 0:43:21] Adam: Is he?
[0:43:21 – 0:43:21] Adam: Yeah.
[0:43:22 – 0:43:23] Adam: He’s going to be there.
[0:43:23 – 0:43:23] Erik: Yeah.
[0:43:24 – 0:43:25] Erik: Well, that’s exciting.
[0:43:26 – 0:43:28] Erik: I’m excited for all involved.
[0:43:29 – 0:43:29] Erik: I think at this point.
[0:43:31 – 0:43:34] Adam: I think we should try and get in a ferret.
[0:43:35 – 0:43:35] Adam: Get a ferret?
[0:43:35 – 0:43:37] Adam: No, get in the ferret.
[0:43:37 – 0:43:38] Adam: The lake ferret?
[0:43:38 – 0:43:39] Adam: Yeah, ferret lake.
[0:43:40 – 0:43:40] Adam: Sure.
[0:43:40 – 0:43:43] Adam: I was looking around on Google Maps.
[0:43:44 – 0:43:44] Erik: What else are we going to do?
[0:43:45 – 0:43:48] Erik: Fish for lake trout on Long Island in September?
[0:43:48 – 0:43:50] Adam: Yeah, that sounds like a foolish idea.
[0:43:51 – 0:43:53] Adam: Yikes.
[0:43:55 – 0:44:00] Adam: Next up on the show, dear friend of the show and top 1% poster, where’s this flare?
[0:44:00 – 0:44:01] Adam: Cheap Dancer?
[0:44:02 – 0:44:04] Adam: And it says Cake Day?
[0:44:05 – 0:44:07] Adam: I’m pretty sure Cheap Dancer’s out camping right now, too.
[0:44:07 – 0:44:07] Erik: Oh, wow.
[0:44:08 – 0:44:08] Adam: I had to guess.
[0:44:09 – 0:44:11] Adam: I could probably guess the campsite.
[0:44:11 – 0:44:13] Adam: Cheap Dancer sent me a message.
[0:44:14 – 0:44:15] Adam: I’m pretty excited about this trip.
[0:44:15 – 0:44:16] Adam: I can’t wait to find out.
[0:44:16 – 0:44:18] Erik: Can you give me an idea on the general vicinity of Cheap Dancer?
[0:44:19 – 0:44:20] Erik: It’s Namakagan River.
[0:44:21 – 0:44:23] Erik: Oh, it’s not even a Boundary Waters thing.
[0:44:23 – 0:44:23] Erik: Yeah.
[0:44:23 – 0:44:24] Erik: Nice.
[0:44:24 – 0:44:25] Adam: Namakagan River.
[0:44:25 – 0:44:26] Adam: High flow.
[0:44:27 – 0:44:29] Adam: Probably got a bunch of rain, fresh flow in there.
[0:44:30 – 0:44:30] Adam: Jeepers.
[0:44:30 – 0:44:30] Adam: Creepers.
[0:44:31 – 0:44:31] Adam: All right.
[0:44:31 – 0:44:36] Adam: This one’s not in proper format, but I’m going to try my best for cheap dancer.
[0:44:36 – 0:44:37] Adam: All right.
[0:44:38 – 0:44:51] Adam: Splittin’ dry oatmeal bits, not rhymes, after securing permission to drop out of the efficient economic blob that dispenses my allotted resources so that I can survive in this mundane existence.
[0:44:52 – 0:44:53] Adam: Beepity bop.
[0:44:53 – 0:44:57] Adam: I’m looking forward to being as unproductive as humanly possible.
[0:44:58 – 0:45:03] Adam: Beepity bop in the out of doors for as long as I effin’ can.
[0:45:05 – 0:45:06] Adam: Edit it to fit your screen.
[0:45:07 – 0:45:07] Adam: The end.
[0:45:08 – 0:45:10] Adam: That’s the poem.
[0:45:14 – 0:45:19] Adam: Well, you know, oatmeal is its own kind of poetry and rap.
[0:45:19 – 0:45:20] Adam: Yeah, maybe.
[0:45:20 – 0:45:21] Adam: I would hope so.
[0:45:22 – 0:45:23] Adam: I think I got one more in me.
[0:45:23 – 0:45:25] Adam: I don’t even know what to make of that.
[0:45:26 – 0:45:27] Adam: The mundane existence.
[0:45:27 – 0:45:30] Adam: That was like the most jazzy of the poems so far.
[0:45:30 – 0:45:35] Erik: That was, yeah, the closest to the Mike Myers beat poetry.
[0:45:35 – 0:45:35] Adam: Yeah.
[0:45:36 – 0:45:40] Erik: It’s not about the verbs he said.
[0:45:40 – 0:45:42] Adam: It’s about the verbs he didn’t say.
[0:45:42 – 0:45:43] Adam: Didn’t say, yeah.
[0:45:43 – 0:45:43] Adam: There we go.
[0:45:44 – 0:45:44] Adam: Thank you for that.
[0:45:45 – 0:45:50] Adam: That was six boxes of wine, and you earned each one of them.
[0:45:50 – 0:45:50] Adam: Thank you.
[0:45:51 – 0:45:54] Adam: Next up on the show, BW Portage Dominator.
[0:45:55 – 0:45:56] Adam: Welcome to the show.
[0:45:57 – 0:45:58] Adam: Congratulations.
[0:45:59 – 0:46:01] Erik: Congratulations on domination.
[0:46:03 – 0:46:06] Adam: What should be the railroads on BWCA Monopoly?
[0:46:07 – 0:46:08] Adam: He is the authority.
[0:46:08 – 0:46:12] Adam: You’re the authority, and you’re the commissioner of railroads now, officially.
[0:46:13 – 0:46:14] Adam: You just got here.
[0:46:14 – 0:46:16] Adam: Yeah, no, you’re in charge.
[0:46:17 – 0:46:21] Adam: In three days, we begin our season in search of walleye galore.
[0:46:21 – 0:46:26] Adam: We will travel from moose to basswood, and a shore lunch we will adore.
[0:46:27 – 0:46:30] Adam: Shortly thereafter, I’ll solo towards Gaskin.
[0:46:31 – 0:46:34] Adam: No real plan, just a one-man band.
[0:46:34 – 0:46:38] Adam: I’ll explore some new spots, and it shall be grand.
[0:46:40 – 0:46:45] Adam: Next, I’ll join seven or eight more on Parent for a base camp, although I imagine it cramped.
[0:46:46 – 0:46:49] Adam: It will be the largest group I’ve ever partaken.
[0:46:49 – 0:46:52] Adam: Definitely fun, but damn, that’s a lot of bacon.
[0:46:54 – 0:46:59] Adam: Another trip or two will likely arise, flying by the seat of my pants, that’s the real prize.
[0:47:00 – 0:47:04] Adam: The boats yearn for water, and I the solitude.
[0:47:05 – 0:47:10] Adam: I await the rhythmic strokes of my paddle, and stress it will preclude.
[0:47:12 – 0:47:12] Adam: Preclude.
[0:47:13 – 0:47:14] Erik: Pre-clude.
[0:47:16 – 0:47:16] Adam: Be-be-da-bop.
[0:47:17 – 0:47:17] Adam: Thank you very much.
[0:47:18 – 0:47:43] Adam: hold on i’m scrolling i’m scrolling we’re scrolling we’re kind of getting down there i think right we got like a thing going on here a thing yeah it looks like there’s a rap battle happening in real time a lot of there’s a lot of comments on this one in real time i’m gonna get another beer okay we’ll see how the uh
[0:47:46 – 0:47:49] Erik: We’ll see how the poetic smackdown goes here.
[0:47:52 – 0:47:53] Erik: From jazzlikelie7270, a.k.a.
[0:47:53 – 0:47:54] Erik: Bluebird Paddler.
[0:48:01 – 0:48:01] Erik: Is that a…
[0:48:03 – 0:48:04] Erik: I’m a real bluebird.

[0:50:08 – 0:50:09] Erik: Browser, sure.
[0:50:09 – 0:50:10] Erik: Is it Chrome Street?
[0:50:10 – 0:50:11] Erik: Yeah.
[0:50:11 – 0:50:12] Erik: It’s probably Chrome Avenue.
[0:50:13 – 0:50:14] Adam: That’s a pretty cool name for a road.
[0:50:14 – 0:50:14] Adam: Yeah.
[0:50:14 – 0:50:17] Adam: I can’t say I’ve ever been on a Chrome Avenue.

[0:50:23 – 0:50:25] Adam: I don’t think that’s it.
[0:50:25 – 0:50:26] Erik: They didn’t say the largest.
[0:50:27 – 0:50:28] Erik: Large.
[0:50:28 – 0:50:28] Erik: It’s large.
[0:50:29 – 0:50:29] Erik: Yeah.
[0:50:31 – 0:50:39] Erik: Well, now that we’ve gotten search engines and browsers all sorted out, let’s continue on with this tech podcast we’re on.
[0:50:39 – 0:50:40] Adam: Alta Vista.
[0:50:41 – 0:50:41] Erik: Alta Vista Avenue?
[0:50:42 – 0:50:42] Erik: That sounds good, too.
[0:50:43 – 0:50:50] Erik: In late June, just after the longest day of the year, my daughter and myself have a Saginaw permit.
[0:50:51 – 0:50:53] Erik: We’ll stay at Andy’s Tuscarora Bunkhouse.
[0:50:54 – 0:50:55] Erik: They should just rename that whole lodge.
[0:50:55 – 0:50:56] Erik: Andy’s Lodge.
[0:50:56 – 0:50:57] Erik: Andy’s Tuscarora.
[0:50:58 – 0:50:59] Adam: Andy’s on the lake.
[0:51:00 – 0:51:00] Adam: It’s Andy’s on the lake.
[0:51:00 – 0:51:01] Erik: For the good times.
[0:51:01 – 0:51:02] Erik: For the good times.
[0:51:02 – 0:51:04] Erik: You can trust Andy again.

[0:51:08 – 0:51:09] Adam: You can trust him always.
[0:51:09 – 0:51:11] Erik: and rent a fine Kevlar.
[0:51:12 – 0:51:14] Erik: Then get a tow to American Point in the mornin’.
[0:51:15 – 0:51:23] Erik: From there to South Knife, somehow, to try our luck at Grand Slam fishing and see new-to-us lakes.
[0:51:23 – 0:51:32] Erik: Then out through Ogish, Gabby, return to a favorite of ours, Little Sag, then Tuscarora, all the way to the landing on Round.
[0:51:34 – 0:51:35] Erik: Yeah, that’s a nice loop.
[0:51:35 – 0:51:40] Erik: In July, the wife and daughter and I will be backpacking in the Wind River Range.
[0:51:43 – 0:51:46] Erik: My wife is boycotting the BWCA this year.
[0:51:47 – 0:51:53] Erik: She feels she may have lost my wanderlust to the Boreal Forest.
[0:51:54 – 0:51:55] Erik: She’s a mountain girl.
[0:51:55 – 0:51:59] Erik: She married a mountain man, not a blackwater bog paddler.
[0:52:02 – 0:52:04] Adam: I didn’t want to marry a bog boy.
[0:52:04 – 0:52:06] Adam: I wanted a mountain man.
[0:52:06 – 0:52:15] Erik: This trip to the high mountains, hopefully, snuffing out this persistent marital strife with the catching of many brookies and cutthroats.
[0:52:15 – 0:52:19] Erik: My wife gets to buy an ultralight pack, blowing our summer budget.
[0:52:20 – 0:52:21] Erik: Whipsnake.
[0:52:22 – 0:52:26] Erik: Her heavy osprey being handed down to my adult-sized daughter.
[0:52:27 – 0:52:32] Erik: In late September, I have a sawbill for another solo attempt at the louse slash lady chain loop.
[0:52:33 – 0:52:35] Erik: The record’s 48 hours on that loop.
[0:52:35 – 0:52:36] Adam: Big timers.
[0:52:36 – 0:52:37] Erik: Yeah.
[0:52:37 – 0:52:38] Adam: Definitely stop on coma.
[0:52:39 – 0:52:39] Erik: Yeah.
[0:52:39 – 0:52:40] Erik: Bream.
[0:52:40 – 0:52:41] Erik: Big bream country.
[0:52:41 – 0:52:52] Erik: My first solo attempt at this last fall was windy, forcing a late start on my biggest day, and so I ended up bailing and shortening it to the dent lake loop.
[0:52:53 – 0:53:17] Erik: which was spectacular properly lonely and my time on wine was super fine can’t wait to return thanks for throwing in a couple rhymes there and at the end yeah um made it work one of the more confusing uh starts but we got there i like it um poetry doesn’t have to always rhyme you know yeah it just has to be creative just got to be creative
[0:53:19 – 0:53:22] Erik: I love you, but you don’t know what you’re talking about.
[0:53:22 – 0:53:23] Erik: I’ve been there with your wife.
[0:53:23 – 0:53:47] Erik: I don’t know if I’ve ever been to the point where I boycotted the BWCA, but there’s been moments where it just, you know, it’s something about the mountains, something about the desert, something about a different landscape than most of us see kind of generally on a day-to-day basis is very exciting getting out into the dusty west.
[0:53:47 – 0:53:49] Adam: They got different kind of portals out there.
[0:53:49 – 0:53:50] Erik: Yeah.
[0:53:50 – 0:53:52] Erik: Brookies, cutthroats, wind range.
[0:53:53 – 0:53:54] Erik: That sounds fun.
[0:53:55 – 0:53:57] Adam: Yeah, my eyebrows are going up and down a lot.
[0:53:57 – 0:53:59] Erik: The Wind River, yeah.
[0:54:01 – 0:54:06] Erik: I feel like something about that jogs my memory.
[0:54:06 – 0:54:10] Erik: We should do another trivia episode or two this fall.
[0:54:10 – 0:54:11] Erik: I know those were fun.
[0:54:11 – 0:54:12] Erik: We did those a couple years ago.
[0:54:12 – 0:54:18] Erik: And I feel like one of the questions was having to do with the largest wilderness area.
[0:54:18 – 0:54:21] Erik: I feel like the Wind River Range was in that conversation.
[0:54:21 – 0:54:22] Adam: Or like darkest.
[0:54:22 – 0:54:23] Erik: Oh, yeah.
[0:54:23 – 0:54:25] Erik: Or, yeah, like Dark Sky version.
[0:54:26 – 0:54:27] Erik: I don’t know.
[0:54:28 – 0:54:29] Erik: That was just the one, right?
[0:54:29 – 0:54:29] Erik: I can do another one?
[0:54:30 – 0:54:30] Adam: Yeah.
[0:54:31 – 0:54:31] Erik: Okay.
[0:54:32 – 0:54:33] Erik: I think we’re going to get them all in.
[0:54:33 – 0:54:34] Adam: Let’s do it.
[0:54:34 – 0:54:36] Erik: That means we can take next week off.

[0:59:21 – 0:59:22] Erik: This is wild.
[0:59:23 – 0:59:23] Erik: Wait.
[0:59:23 – 0:59:25] Erik: Is this the start of like a novel of some sort here?
[0:59:27 – 0:59:34] Erik: A ballerina wife going to Swan Lake and then taking a three week trip for the first time out of the country to Papua New Guinea.
[0:59:35 – 0:59:36] SPEAKER_00: Wild.
[0:59:37 – 0:59:41] Erik: This is not a normal summer for me, but super stoked to get this many trips in.
[0:59:42 – 0:59:42] Erik: Hell yeah.
[0:59:42 – 0:59:43] Erik: That sounds amazing.
[0:59:44 – 0:59:45] Adam: That’s a hunky chuggers.
[0:59:46 – 0:59:49] Erik: There’s something about putting together a summer like that.
[0:59:49 – 0:59:50] Erik: Just a crazy.
[0:59:51 – 0:59:52] Erik: It just sounds wild.
[0:59:52 – 0:59:59] Erik: Like you’re going to come out of it and it’s going to be forged in your memories as a year that you will always remember.
[0:59:59 – 1:00:03] Erik: I can tell you based on my experience and some crazy summers like that in my past.
[1:00:03 – 1:00:04] SPEAKER_00: Just say yes.
[1:00:05 – 1:00:05] Adam: Just say yes.
[1:00:05 – 1:00:06] Erik: Just say yes.
[1:00:06 – 1:00:08] Erik: I’ve never been to Papua New Guinea, but.
[1:00:09 – 1:00:11] Adam: I bet you’re going to find some crazy like water slide to go on.
[1:00:12 – 1:00:15] Erik: A Papua New Guinea, a natural rock water slide.
[1:00:15 – 1:00:16] Erik: Slick.
[1:00:17 – 1:00:18] Erik: Extra slick.
[1:00:18 – 1:00:19] Adam: Extra slick, baby.
[1:00:19 – 1:00:21] Erik: We got a few more here.
[1:00:21 – 1:00:25] Erik: I think we’re going to do it.
[1:00:26 – 1:00:38] Erik: I think we’re going to take a pause, though, so we can watch this power play in overtime without absolutely just not saying anything for a minute and 40 seconds straight here.
[1:00:40 – 1:00:41] Erik: All right, here we go.
[1:00:41 – 1:00:42] Erik: AI, it’s on.
[1:00:42 – 1:00:43] Erik: Eagle, 98MN.
[1:00:44 – 1:00:50] Erik: Limericks, courtesy of AI, since I’m not at all creative linguistically.
[1:00:50 – 1:00:51] Erik: You could just have written something, too.
[1:00:52 – 1:00:55] Erik: It didn’t have to necessarily be a limerick.
[1:00:55 – 1:00:57] Erik: I just said that the haikus were banned.
[1:00:58 – 1:01:02] Erik: Edit, I care enough about the meme community to type in a few prompts.
[1:01:03 – 1:01:09] Erik: Edit two, I don’t upvote others since I scroll right past their replies to leave them unspoiled for the episode.
[1:01:09 – 1:01:10] Adam: Oh, there you go.
[1:01:10 – 1:01:11] Adam: That might explain.
[1:01:11 – 1:01:13] Adam: That makes a lot of sense, actually.
[1:01:13 – 1:01:14] Erik: Yeah.
[1:01:14 – 1:01:19] Erik: Feeling properly admonished, I am awarding upvotes to everyone tonight while watching the Timberwolves.
[1:01:20 – 1:01:23] Erik: Eric, play some Journey and don’t stop believing in Minnesota sports.
[1:01:23 – 1:01:24] Erik: You can go by yourself.
[1:01:26 – 1:01:28] Erik: Trip one, the wild route.
[1:01:29 – 1:01:30] Adam: What’s that mean?
[1:01:30 – 1:01:31] Adam: I don’t know.
[1:01:31 – 1:01:32] Adam: We’re going to find out.
[1:01:32 – 1:01:33] Adam: Is it going to be the face of a bobcat?
[1:01:34 – 1:01:35] Adam: Maybe.
[1:01:35 – 1:01:37] Adam: With some trees coming out of its face.
[1:01:38 – 1:01:41] Erik: First, Angleworm’s portage so wide.
[1:01:42 – 1:01:44] Erik: Through Sundial’s PMA we’ll glide.
[1:01:45 – 1:01:47] Erik: Past Curtain Falls we will steer.
[1:01:48 – 1:01:49] Erik: The border so near.
[1:01:50 – 1:01:53] Erik: Then out through South Hegman with pride.
[1:01:55 – 1:01:56] Erik: Trip two, a family journey.
[1:01:58 – 1:02:02] Erik: At East Bearskin we’ll set the scene with three kids and my wife.
[1:02:03 – 1:02:04] Erik: What a team!
[1:02:05 – 1:02:06] Erik: To Johnson Falls Spray.
[1:02:07 – 1:02:09] Erik: We’ll laugh all the way.
[1:02:10 – 1:02:13] Erik: Daughter’s first trip that feels like a dream.
[1:02:14 – 1:02:14] Erik: Yeah.
[1:02:15 – 1:02:16] Adam: Pretty nice.
[1:02:16 – 1:02:17] Erik: Pretty nice.
[1:02:17 – 1:02:17] Erik: Good job, AI.
[1:02:18 – 1:02:18] Erik: Thank you.
[1:02:20 – 1:02:24] Erik: Be careful on that portage, though, down from canoe to pine.
[1:02:27 – 1:02:28] Adam: Holy moly, hot dog.
[1:02:29 – 1:02:29] Adam: We’re professionals.
[1:02:29 – 1:02:30] Adam: We will do it.
[1:02:30 – 1:02:32] Erik: We will, and we are.
[1:02:32 – 1:02:33] Adam: We’re doing it.
[1:02:34 – 1:02:35] Erik: And just a few more left here.
[1:02:35 – 1:02:36] Erik: Amateur camper.
[1:02:36 – 1:02:42] Erik: June trip to Gabbro with our family and my sister-in-law’s family.
[1:02:43 – 1:02:46] Erik: Going to be a group of nine, four adults, and five kids.
[1:02:47 – 1:02:54] Erik: I’ve never gone with a group this big, but looked like this area had some decent-sized sites.
[1:02:57 – 1:03:04] Erik: Second trip is in September out of Snowbank, doing a loop around to Lake One with the wife and a couple of other public.
[1:03:04 – 1:03:04] Erik: We got public.
[1:03:04 – 1:03:05] Erik: We got public.
[1:03:06 – 1:03:06] Erik: Going.
[1:03:07 – 1:03:07] Erik: Sorry.
[1:03:07 – 1:03:16] Erik: Goal for this trip is to retrace the steps of Nandi Mondalexis and the other Forest Service rangers that got caught in the Pagami Creek fire.
[1:03:17 – 1:03:21] Erik: If I can, I will find a cheap fire shelter on eBay.
[1:03:21 – 1:03:22] Erik: Do you think those are even on eBay?
[1:03:23 – 1:03:24] Adam: They probably have them.
[1:03:24 – 1:03:25] Adam: I’ll take a video deploying it.
[1:03:25 – 1:03:26] Adam: Is anything on eBay?
[1:03:27 – 1:03:27] Adam: Everything’s on eBay.
[1:03:29 – 1:03:30] Adam: Maybe go for Timu.
[1:03:30 – 1:03:30] Adam: Yeah.
[1:03:31 – 1:03:32] Adam: You can get them for $4 at Timu.
[1:03:32 – 1:03:35] Erik: Would you want to take your chances on a Timu fire shelter?
[1:03:35 – 1:03:38] Adam: I don’t want to take my chances on any fire shelter.
[1:03:38 – 1:03:40] Adam: I’d rather be in a tube tent.
[1:03:40 – 1:03:42] Erik: Let alone a Timu fire shelter.
[1:03:43 – 1:03:43] Erik: Oh, man.
[1:03:44 – 1:03:49] Erik: But, yeah, if they can find one, they’re going to take a video deploying it on that little island they took refuge on.
[1:03:49 – 1:03:51] Adam: As long as you get a big walkie-talkie.
[1:03:51 – 1:03:52] Adam: Go, go.
[1:03:52 – 1:03:53] Adam: That’s the key to that whole shot.
[1:03:53 – 1:03:54] Erik: Go, go, tumble home.
[1:03:55 – 1:03:57] Adam: And some sort of smoke machine, probably.
[1:03:57 – 1:03:58] Adam: How are you going to recreate the smoke?
[1:03:58 – 1:04:02] Erik: What a wild concept to recreate the…
[1:04:03 – 1:04:03] Erik: The Mondalexis.
[1:04:03 – 1:04:05] Erik: The Mondalexis fire scene.
[1:04:05 – 1:04:07] Adam: Yeah, pagami burn.
[1:04:08 – 1:04:09] Erik: Make sure you also bring some honey.
[1:04:10 – 1:04:11] Adam: Everybody’s got their dreams, you know.
[1:04:12 – 1:04:12] Adam: Yeah.
[1:04:12 – 1:04:14] Adam: Who are we to disagree?
[1:04:14 – 1:04:14] Adam: We won’t.
[1:04:16 – 1:04:16] Adam: Wow.
[1:04:17 – 1:04:18] Erik: That sounds incredible.
[1:04:18 – 1:04:24] Erik: That is surely a video that I would love to see if you do pull it off.
[1:04:24 – 1:04:29] Adam: If anybody does find fire shelters on Timu for $4, just buy enough for the whole Tumulumi trip.
[1:04:29 – 1:04:30] Adam: Yeah.
[1:04:30 – 1:04:32] Adam: And then we can all go into Ferret Lake and deploy.
[1:04:33 – 1:04:33] Erik: Yep.
[1:04:34 – 1:04:36] Erik: Just two more comments here, and we’re going to get the heck out.
[1:04:37 – 1:04:39] Erik: You’re going to go cry somewhere like Mark Shifley.
[1:04:39 – 1:04:41] Adam: Oh, my God.
[1:04:41 – 1:04:43] Erik: You can’t say that.
[1:04:43 – 1:04:44] Adam: He just said it.
[1:04:46 – 1:04:49] Adam: Man, it was tough watching Mark Shifley cry in the penalty box tonight.
[1:04:49 – 1:04:52] Adam: Eyes like his were not meant to cry.
[1:04:52 – 1:04:56] Adam: He’s got the hydrogen psychosis permanento.
[1:04:56 – 1:04:58] Adam: Next up on the show, Phasmata.
[1:04:59 – 1:05:00] Adam: Dear Phasmata.
[1:05:01 – 1:05:07] Adam: 13 days ago, edited 12 days ago with a link that we are definitely not clicking on.
[1:05:08 – 1:05:08] Adam: Click it now.
[1:05:08 – 1:05:09] Adam: Oh, my.
[1:05:09 – 1:05:10] Adam: I’m clicking it.
[1:05:12 – 1:05:14] Adam: Oh my, that’s plenty of poetry for me already.
[1:05:14 – 1:05:16] Adam: Fosmata’s 2025?
[1:05:16 – 1:05:21] Adam: Well, I obviously took the reins on a second annual Tumble Homey trip in September.
[1:05:22 – 1:05:30] Adam: Ideas already being brainstormed during the first trip, and I liked Long Island because it takes the homies past some Tumble Home podcast podcasts
[1:05:30 – 1:05:33] Adam: points of interest like Trail Center and Ham Lake.
[1:05:33 – 1:05:35] Adam: Those are the two points of interest.
[1:05:36 – 1:05:42] Adam: I mean, yeah, Ham Lake for the… Pozniak’s got to read the newspaper somewhere.
[1:05:42 – 1:05:45] Erik: Who’s bringing the newspaper on this trip for burning?
[1:05:45 – 1:05:49] Adam: Yeah, somebody bring a couple back issues of the Star Trib.
[1:05:49 – 1:05:51] Erik: Some back issues of the Star Tribune and some…
[1:05:51 – 1:05:52] Adam: The Twins stats.
[1:05:53 – 1:05:54] Adam: Some honey for slathering.
[1:05:54 – 1:05:55] Adam: There you go.
[1:05:55 – 1:06:00] Adam: Because I always have to be a little extra, I enlisted Admiral Gary to get a second cross paper mint
[1:06:00 – 1:06:07] Adam: so that we could legally exceed the nine-person limit by splitting everyone to two permits and two campsites, hopefully near each other.
[1:06:08 – 1:06:14] Adam: I know the limit doesn’t just apply to permits, but frankly, if we all end up hanging out together at the same time, I’m not going to sweat it.
[1:06:15 – 1:06:18] Adam: One Bobby is worse for the wilderness than a dozen homies.
[1:06:19 – 1:06:24] Adam: And I expect we’ll be naturally breaking off into smaller groups for various activities anyways.
[1:06:25 – 1:06:28] Adam: Like going to Ferret to deploy our shelters.
[1:06:28 – 1:06:28] Erik: Yeah.
[1:06:28 – 1:06:31] Erik: We’re all going to go up to Ferret and deploy our Timu fire shelters.
[1:06:31 – 1:06:34] Adam: Somebody also buy a couple of candelabras.
[1:06:35 – 1:06:35] Adam: Yeah.
[1:06:35 – 1:06:36] Adam: Just for the photo.
[1:06:36 – 1:06:39] Adam: We need a couple extra candelabras just for the photo shoot.
[1:06:42 – 1:06:43] Adam: And we need a smoke machine.
[1:06:43 – 1:06:44] Adam: Hopefully battery powered.
[1:06:44 – 1:06:45] Adam: I don’t know.
[1:06:45 – 1:06:47] Adam: Maybe you can get a hand crank smoke machine.
[1:06:47 – 1:06:48] Erik: Ooh, yeah.
[1:06:48 – 1:06:49] Erik: Now we’re talking.
[1:06:49 – 1:06:51] Erik: That’s really the only way that they should come is hand crank.
[1:06:52 – 1:06:52] Adam: Yeah, I know.
[1:06:53 – 1:06:57] Adam: Also with the siren that comes, the hand cranking siren.
[1:06:57 – 1:06:59] Adam: We are currently at 13 homies.
[1:07:00 – 1:07:03] Adam: 14 of Eric can come and chunk, chunk.
[1:07:03 – 1:07:03] Adam: It’s a lock.
[1:07:04 – 1:07:04] Adam: Chunk, chunk.
[1:07:04 – 1:07:05] Adam: Lock it.
[1:07:05 – 1:07:05] Adam: He’s in.
[1:07:06 – 1:07:07] Adam: I know that sounds like a lot.
[1:07:07 – 1:07:16] Adam: I was concerned about five to six strangers being overwhelming last year, but it was honestly one of my smoothest trips I’ve ever been on because we only have two permits.
[1:07:17 – 1:07:21] Adam: We do have an 18 homie limit, which means that there are only four spots left.
[1:07:22 – 1:07:35] Adam: It is just an easy base camp in order to avoid overcomplicating things for a group of relative strangers, but discussions of venturing into the nearby PMA, as well as bushwhacking to ferret and fun lakes…
[1:07:35 – 1:07:35] Adam: There it is.
[1:07:36 – 1:07:36] Adam: Fun.
[1:07:36 – 1:07:37] Adam: Where’s fun?
[1:07:37 – 1:07:39] Adam: …has been discussed on the Discord.
[1:07:40 – 1:07:51] Adam: Whether you’re coming along or not, if you’re in the Grimer area on the evening of September 17th, we will all be hanging out somewhere around town and would welcome any and all homies to join us.
[1:07:52 – 1:07:52] Adam: Do show.
[1:07:53 – 1:07:54] Adam: I am looking forward to it.
[1:07:54 – 1:07:54] Adam: Do show.
[1:07:54 – 1:07:57] Adam: Being another absolute disaster.
[1:07:58 – 1:08:01] Adam: It can’t get any better than an absolute disaster.
[1:08:01 – 1:08:04] Adam: Absolute disaster is like the best possible outcome.
[1:08:06 – 1:08:13] Adam: In June, I will be taking a friend on his first canoe trip and his first wilderness trip by way of a five-day Kawishwita Sawbill lady chain trip.
[1:08:15 – 1:08:25] Adam: And as I write this, I’m days away from a May 9 Brant entry looping through Gillis and Tuscarora over at Andy’s Tuscarora for five days with a fellow tumble homie.
[1:08:26 – 1:08:28] Erik: Andy’s Tuscarora.
[1:08:28 – 1:08:32] Erik: We should start going back to the old days where it was like Jocko’s Clearwater Lodge.
[1:08:32 – 1:08:33] Adam: Exactly.
[1:08:33 – 1:08:34] Erik: Andy’s Tuscarora.
[1:08:34 – 1:08:36] Adam: Make the owner a character.
[1:08:36 – 1:08:36] Erik: Yeah.
[1:08:37 – 1:08:38] Adam: Because they are.
[1:08:38 – 1:08:39] Erik: They always are.
[1:08:39 – 1:08:40] Erik: Yeah.
[1:08:41 – 1:08:45] Erik: There’s a number of businesses in Grand Marais that still have names attached to them.
[1:08:45 – 1:08:46] Erik: Not as many as there used to be.
[1:08:46 – 1:08:47] Erik: Right.
[1:08:47 – 1:08:51] Erik: I don’t know if I can trust this Tyron Auto Lodge.
[1:08:52 – 1:08:55] Erik: But if there’s a name in front of it, there’s got to be a good guy.
[1:08:55 – 1:08:56] Erik: Exactly.
[1:08:56 – 1:08:56] Adam: Exactly.
[1:09:00 – 1:09:00] Adam: Is that it from?
[1:09:01 – 1:09:01] Adam: No.
[1:09:02 – 1:09:06] Adam: There’s a link included if anybody’s looking for the Tumble Homie sign-up form.
[1:09:06 – 1:09:07] Adam: Oh, yeah.
[1:09:07 – 1:09:07] Adam: That’s right.
[1:09:07 – 1:09:07] Adam: Yeah.
[1:09:08 – 1:09:09] Adam: We will put it in the show notes.
[1:09:09 – 1:09:09] Adam: Sure.
[1:09:09 – 1:09:10] Adam: Why not?
[1:09:10 – 1:09:11] Erik: Four more people.
[1:09:11 – 1:09:11] Erik: Get in there.
[1:09:11 – 1:09:12] Erik: Come on.
[1:09:12 – 1:09:12] Erik: What are you doing?
[1:09:12 – 1:09:14] Adam: Get your stick in the bindle.
[1:09:14 – 1:09:14] Adam: Get it in here.
[1:09:15 – 1:09:15] Erik: Yeah.
[1:09:16 – 1:09:17] Erik: You only live once.
[1:09:17 – 1:09:26] Erik: Could you imagine missing out on some kind of a Timu fire shelter honey party with 18 strangers on ferret?
[1:09:27 – 1:09:27] UNKNOWN: Yeah.
[1:09:28 – 1:09:31] Adam: When you put it like that, Eric, it sounds magical.
[1:09:31 – 1:09:32] Adam: Yeah.
[1:09:34 – 1:09:37] Adam: Eric’s Honey Lodge on Ferret Lake.
[1:09:37 – 1:09:39] Erik: It sounds like the sequel to Midsommar.
[1:09:39 – 1:09:41] Erik: Oh, God, yeah, for sure.
[1:09:41 – 1:09:44] Erik: Whatever the Swedish version of the… Equinox is.
[1:09:46 – 1:09:49] Adam: Ferret Equinox, directed by Eric.
[1:09:49 – 1:09:51] Adam: No, no, no.
[1:09:51 – 1:09:52] Adam: Not again.
[1:09:52 – 1:09:53] Adam: Click the link, please.
[1:09:53 – 1:09:56] Erik: I’ll bring the skull-smashing mallet.
[1:09:57 – 1:09:59] Erik: You bring the barrel of honey.
[1:10:00 – 1:10:04] Adam: This somehow reminds me of where the co-op is in Grand Marais.
[1:10:04 – 1:10:10] Adam: It used to be a bar, which I’ve never seen in my life because this was way before my time in Grand Marais.
[1:10:10 – 1:10:11] Erik: I thought it was the co-op.
[1:10:12 – 1:10:12] Adam: It was the co-op.
[1:10:13 – 1:10:14] Erik: But before that.
[1:10:14 – 1:10:15] Adam: Before that, it was the co-op.
[1:10:15 – 1:10:19] Adam: But before that, it was the Napa Auto Parts store.
[1:10:19 – 1:10:24] Adam: But before that, it was a tavern called Bobby Don’s.
[1:10:24 – 1:10:25] Erik: Dang.
[1:10:25 – 1:10:26] Erik: Okay.
[1:10:26 – 1:10:27] Adam: I have a bounty out there.
[1:10:27 – 1:10:37] Adam: If anybody can find me a neon sign from the original Bobby Don’s Tavern, which is now where the co-op currently is, I will buy it off you and hang it in the kitchen of the co-op.
[1:10:37 – 1:10:40] Erik: It’s probably in a garage somewhere in the county.
[1:10:40 – 1:10:42] Adam: Using cash out of the safe.
[1:10:42 – 1:10:43] Erik: Petty cash.
[1:10:43 – 1:10:47] Adam: We’re allowed to spend up to $500 on neon signs every week.
[1:10:47 – 1:10:51] Erik: Especially if it’s a vintage historical artifact.
[1:10:51 – 1:10:54] Erik: If it’s for a historical artifact like that, it’s an easy spend.
[1:10:55 – 1:10:58] Adam: They have the best brandy drinks this side of the lake.
[1:10:59 – 1:11:07] Adam: We have a poem response to Fazmata’s comment, which I would like to read, and then one more comment, which I will also read to end this show.
[1:11:08 – 1:11:12] Adam: The response poem is from Admiral Geary, who is shouted out there.
[1:11:13 – 1:11:17] Adam: I requested steamed mussels one night for our camp by the lake.
[1:11:17 – 1:11:18] Adam: What a sight!
[1:11:18 – 1:11:20] Adam: But the cook said with a grin…
[1:11:21 – 1:11:26] Adam: We’ve got no pots to begin, so we’ll roast spam by the fire’s warm light.
[1:11:28 – 1:11:29] Adam: That was my best cook’s voice.
[1:11:29 – 1:11:30] Erik: Interesting response.
[1:11:31 – 1:11:35] Erik: Didn’t really seem like it had anything to do with anything, but I’m opposed.
[1:11:36 – 1:11:36] Adam: All right.
[1:11:37 – 1:11:42] Adam: And final comment from dear friend of the show, SquatchHunted.
[1:11:43 – 1:11:46] Adam: One day ago, with one box of wine.
[1:11:46 – 1:11:47] Adam: How appropriate.
[1:11:48 – 1:11:51] Adam: Up the Moose River, we’ll float towards LLC.
[1:11:51 – 1:11:54] Adam: In our boat, I’ll sleep in my hammock.
[1:11:55 – 1:11:58] Adam: With biters for bannock, and when it’s time to come home, we’ll say…
[1:11:59 – 1:12:00] Adam: Wait.
[1:12:00 – 1:12:06] Adam: That might be the end of a different limerick, but I think it conveys the sentiment we feel at the end of our trip.
[1:12:07 – 1:12:08] Adam: Enjoy paddling.
[1:12:08 – 1:12:09] Adam: The end.
[1:12:10 – 1:12:12] Adam: And it really does say the end.
[1:12:12 – 1:12:13] Adam: I didn’t add that one.
[1:12:14 – 1:12:14] Adam: Good.
[1:12:14 – 1:12:14] Adam: Great.
[1:12:15 – 1:12:16] Adam: No editorializing when we’re reading.
[1:12:17 – 1:12:18] Adam: So appropriate.
[1:12:18 – 1:12:19] Adam: The text is sacred.
[1:12:19 – 1:12:25] Erik: The end of the full list of comments does end with the end.
[1:12:25 – 1:12:26] Erik: The end.
[1:12:27 – 1:12:52] Erik: also biters for bannock that would be a pretty good now we’re talking episode title even a pretty good if you want to confuse the biter reddit usernames even more yeah biters for bannock would be a pretty good one just throwing it out there that could be a whole regional in the next tumble tournament biter the biter region and region yeah
[1:12:54 – 1:12:59] Erik: Yeah, there’s unlimited potential for a biter tourney.
[1:13:00 – 1:13:02] Erik: Could just be foods of the Boundary Waters.
[1:13:03 – 1:13:04] Erik: 16 seed.
[1:13:06 – 1:13:09] Erik: Nancy Mondalexis slathered in honey.
[1:13:09 – 1:13:11] Adam: Well, I don’t know if that’s a 16 seed.
[1:13:11 – 1:13:15] Erik: Hey, no 16 seed, not to one individual.
[1:13:15 – 1:13:20] Adam: 16 seed would be like a wet bagel found on the side of a portage.
[1:13:22 – 1:13:26] Adam: And you also do not collect $200 and you do not pass go.
[1:13:27 – 1:13:32] Erik: Yeah, an improperly wet baked dumpling would be a 16 seed.
[1:13:32 – 1:13:33] Erik: A damp scone.
[1:13:34 – 1:13:35] Adam: Yeah, yeah.
[1:13:38 – 1:13:40] Adam: One packet of mayonnaise, 10 seed.
[1:13:40 – 1:13:41] Adam: Oh, okay.
[1:13:41 – 1:13:43] Adam: 10 seed for the packet of mayonnaise.
[1:13:43 – 1:13:48] Erik: Well, I feel like that was packet of mayonnaise was in the original tumble tourney.
[1:13:48 – 1:13:49] Adam: It was actually, yeah.
[1:13:50 – 1:13:52] Adam: One of the greatest culinary delights of all time.
[1:13:52 – 1:13:53] Erik: Yeah.
[1:13:53 – 1:13:54] Adam: A packet of mayonnaise.
[1:13:54 – 1:13:55] Adam: Shelf stable for 20 years.
[1:13:56 – 1:14:00] Adam: Anytime I feel myself getting a little queasy or I might faint, a packet of mayonnaise.
[1:14:01 – 1:14:01] Adam: Suck on one of those.
[1:14:01 – 1:14:03] Adam: Yeah, I’m right as rain.
[1:14:05 – 1:14:09] Adam: I’m feeling like a nice rhubarb in May.
[1:14:09 – 1:14:11] Adam: Yeah, early season, rhubarb.
[1:14:11 – 1:14:15] Adam: And actually, if the rhubarb is not looking good, squeeze a packet of mayonnaise on the roots.
[1:14:16 – 1:14:16] Erik: Ugh.
[1:14:17 – 1:14:17] Adam: Beautiful.
[1:14:18 – 1:14:18] Erik: Gross.
[1:14:19 – 1:14:20] Adam: That’s my secret.
[1:14:21 – 1:14:21] Adam: Mayonnaise those roots?
[1:14:22 – 1:14:24] Adam: Yeah, that’s my gardening secret.
[1:14:24 – 1:14:25] Erik: Mays the roots.
[1:14:26 – 1:14:32] Adam: If you’re ever having a deficient foliage, squeeze a little mayonnaise on the roots.
[1:14:32 – 1:14:34] Adam: Are you okay?
[1:14:34 – 1:14:34] Adam: I’m not.
[1:14:35 – 1:14:38] Erik: Yeah, just uproot the plant, maze the roots, and then replant it.
[1:14:38 – 1:14:40] Adam: Stick it back down there, yeah.
[1:14:40 – 1:14:40] Adam: Yeah.
[1:14:40 – 1:14:41] Adam: It’s going to be fine.
[1:14:41 – 1:14:42] Adam: It’s going to be great.
[1:14:42 – 1:14:43] Adam: Yeah, we’re doing fine.
[1:14:43 – 1:14:43] Erik: Yeah.
[1:14:44 – 1:14:45] Adam: All right.
[1:14:45 – 1:15:00] Adam: Well, thank you to all of our poems and poetry writers, and thank you to all our patrons for their continued support of our independent podcast where we talk about paddling and all things boundary waters and border waters.

[1:15:07 – 1:15:07] Adam: Yeah.
[1:15:08 – 1:15:10] Adam: And I’m feeling really jazzed up right now in general.
[1:15:11 – 1:15:12] Erik: It’s the jazziest of times.
[1:15:13 – 1:15:15] Erik: Very excited for all of you.
[1:15:15 – 1:15:16] Erik: Very excited for all of us.

[1:15:51 – 1:15:58] Erik: Yeah, and we’re going to get back into the mezzanine here, and by all accounts, you never know.
[1:15:59 – 1:16:03] Erik: We’re going to wrap up sub-month, which has been three months now.
[1:16:04 – 1:16:06] Adam: It’s been pretty good, yeah.
[1:16:06 – 1:16:13] Adam: Whoever the four people on the Patreon are that get to listen to these, they’re getting great value this month for sure.
[1:16:13 – 1:16:14] Adam: Absolute best value.
[1:16:14 – 1:16:15] Erik: A lot of good content.
[1:16:15 – 1:16:19] Erik: $5 a month to listen to us talk.
[1:16:20 – 1:16:20] Erik: Even…
[1:16:21 – 1:16:23] Erik: Is this like the ninth sub-movie we’ve done?
[1:16:24 – 1:16:25] Erik: Yeah.
[1:16:25 – 1:16:25] Erik: At least.
[1:16:27 – 1:16:29] Erik: Even less structured than the regular podcast.
[1:16:29 – 1:16:30] Erik: If you can even believe it.
[1:16:30 – 1:16:31] Erik: If you can even believe it.
[1:16:33 – 1:16:34] Erik: Periscope up.
[1:16:34 – 1:16:35] Erik: Yeah, we’re just always…
[1:16:37 – 1:16:40] Erik: biting our tongues here, really holding back our true thoughts.
[1:16:40 – 1:16:42] Erik: Yeah, this is pretty reserved.
[1:16:42 – 1:16:45] Erik: Yeah, really reserved and held back and low-key.
[1:16:46 – 1:16:48] Erik: But you jump into that Patreon.
[1:16:48 – 1:16:52] Adam: On the TCC, every once in a while, you might even hear one of us laugh.
[1:16:53 – 1:16:57] Erik: There might be some laughter, maybe some unbleaped curse words.
[1:16:58 – 1:16:59] Erik: You never know.
[1:17:00 – 1:17:03] Erik: American-Russian relations in the mid-60s.
[1:17:05 – 1:17:05] Erik: The Russians are coming.
[1:17:05 – 1:17:07] Erik: The Russians are coming.
[1:17:07 – 1:17:15] Erik: You have to say it twice because that is the title of the movie we will be discussing imminently.
[1:17:15 – 1:17:21] Adam: Yeah, I think there’s like honestly 200 episodes of Tomahawk Cinema Classics out there as well.
[1:17:21 – 1:17:25] Erik: Those ones are not etched into the marble under the capital in Ottawa.
[1:17:26 – 1:17:26] Adam: Not yet.
[1:17:26 – 1:17:27] Erik: They don’t have access to that.
[1:17:27 – 1:17:28] Erik: Not yet.
[1:17:28 – 1:17:30] Erik: They’re not willing to pay the $5 a month to get beyond.
[1:17:30 – 1:17:31] Erik: Yeah.
[1:17:31 – 1:17:34] Adam: Maybe the government of Canada should invest, though.
[1:17:35 – 1:17:35] Erik: It’s a good investment.
[1:17:36 – 1:17:36] Erik: It would be.
[1:17:36 – 1:17:37] Erik: It’s a one-time investment.
[1:17:37 – 1:17:40] Erik: You get access, quick download them, etching onto marble, and you’re set.
[1:17:40 – 1:17:41] Adam: It’s there forever.
[1:17:42 – 1:17:43] Adam: Yeah, I think it’s great.
[1:17:43 – 1:17:44] Adam: Yeah.
[1:17:44 – 1:17:46] Adam: Because we are coming to Wabakimi in a couple years.
[1:17:46 – 1:17:47] Adam: We’re coming to Wabakimi.
[1:17:48 – 1:17:49] Adam: That’s just called being smart.
[1:17:49 – 1:17:50] Adam: If they’ll have us.
[1:17:50 – 1:17:52] Erik: Oh, they will, I hope.
[1:17:52 – 1:17:58] Erik: We’ll test the waters crossing the border maybe in a couple weeks to go and stay in a heated cabin on Pickerel.
[1:17:58 – 1:18:01] Adam: Yeah, we’ll just nudge our boat up on shore.
[1:18:01 – 1:18:02] Adam: Hopefully we don’t get stuck on a sandbar.
[1:18:03 – 1:18:03] Adam: Hopefully.
[1:18:03 – 1:18:05] Adam: Otherwise, hilarity will ensue.
[1:18:05 – 1:18:07] Adam: It always does.
[1:18:08 – 1:18:10] Erik: The madness and hilarity will ensue.
[1:18:10 – 1:18:13] Erik: That’s it.
[1:18:13 – 1:18:13] Erik: All right.
[1:18:13 – 1:18:14] Adam: What else is there to say?
[1:18:14 – 1:18:17] Adam: Nothing else is frozen yet, but the freeze warning continues.
[1:18:17 – 1:18:19] Adam: So we’re going to be careful, though, tonight.
[1:18:20 – 1:18:21] Erik: Freeze warning’s on.
[1:18:21 – 1:18:23] Erik: Cover your sensitive plants.
[1:18:23 – 1:18:24] Erik: No worries about the rhubarb.
[1:18:25 – 1:18:25] Erik: No.
[1:18:25 – 1:18:28] Adam: But you’re going to want to throw a sheet over your beans, that’s for sure.
[1:18:29 – 1:18:30] Erik: Sheet the beans.
[1:18:31 – 1:18:36] Adam: As we always say on Tumble Home, life is precious, and every day is a miracle.
[1:18:37 – 1:18:37] Adam: Good night.
