Ever felt like the underdog in your workplace? I know I've been there. My friend Corey Simmons and I swap stories of our journey from humble childhoods to our time in the military and the transition to IT jobs, revealing the not-so-glamorous side of climbing the career ladder. We talk about the lessons learned, the unfair treatment, and the workplace politics that tested our resilience time and again.
Remember when your kid tried to explain the US Constitution to their teacher and ended up debating it? Parenting is an endless rollercoaster of trials and triumphs, and Corey and I are taking you along for the ride. From adorable toddler antics to testing teenage years, we delve into our personal adventures in fatherhood with raw honesty and a dash of humor.
Amidst the laughter and reminiscing, we also touch on some serious societal issues - the importance of respecting people in fast food jobs, the desperate need for more supporting social programs, and the terrifying dangers of Fentanyl. Sit back and join us as we navigate our way through these diverse discussions, whether it's sharing our hilarious experiences at wrestling events or exploring the challenges of starting a non-profit. We promise you a rollercoaster of laughs, insights, and a whole lot of relatable stories.

Speaker 4You get a little money, right yeah, when you live in a single one.
Speaker 1Yeah, we'll build the room on it, and then when they had their house now built back, then that was that was kind of early 90s 94.
Speaker 7Yeah.
Speaker 1They just built over. Yeah, part of the. The house was just so like there's the roof to the main house, but there's also a roof under the roof of the add-on.
Speaker 4Our most expensive thing was the add-on, but it was the. We built a big-ass deck that was half the size of the trailer house and that's where. That's where we stayed.
Speaker 3There's no electricity in the room. Just a room just there.
Speaker 1If you're cold you need to warm up. Jog in place. Yeah, just jog in place. But I think what happened of back, if we're talking? When we first met, I had just done like a Got Cobb engineering approved for on the job, training with the GI Bill and so, knowing you were military, it was like hey we now have this cool Program if you want to use it. But come check it out.
Speaker 4Work and survey I guess right, because like a month before then I like I just got back from Iraq, like a month before, some guy called me. It was like hey, you want a job? And I was like yeah, and it was like the pair what's that? Professional express, whatever personal express.
Speaker 4Oh yeah and they're like, bro, you're gonna make bank. They're like, go the old rig. I was like, oh yeah, I'm down and like, alright. They're like, hey, just show up on Monday.

Speaker 4I was like I can't get it. That weekend we watch the UFC fight. And you called you like hey, come in here. And I was like I don't know how to interview. I was like they're like cuz they, I think you you fucked my head up. When you're like, well, it's an engineering company, but it's surveyed, I was like googling what the fucking?
Speaker 1engineering company was.
Speaker 4I walk in and burns in a suit.
Speaker 3I'm like I was like hey, I was like yeah they're like alright, what kind of work can you do?
Speaker 4I was like manual machine guns Mom and he was like can you start Monday? And I was like Nailed it. Hell, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I could start right now.
Speaker 4Let's do the paperwork you got some sweeping, I Can do my sister-in-law took me to Ross to buy all my clothes, cuz I didn't have a single shirt that had sleeves or not stains. I Was like I wear my army uniform in there. I was like, if that looks good? Courtney was like fuck, no, she goes, I'm getting the strafford out of you. So she beat, she beat the strafford out of me.
Speaker 1In the trees with the camo on. We lost them, we just left. He's out there somewhere and then you work in survey for a while and you do all the fun things surveyors do, like having to shit in the woods and poison ivy poison ivy, I'd come down there and see you.
Speaker 4And what was legit? A fucking basement.
Speaker 3Oh.
Speaker 4It was all this shit, it was all this in there. Toys, there is a there was a. So, many we had a room.
Speaker 1We had an IT room above the basement but in the basement was we had some servers down there and stuff like that. Servers Well, not like for a restaurant and I Can I pewter like.
Speaker 4Oh, it was a kept survey, like they kept all the fucking animals down there in one area, so, like when I finally found his place, I was like this is the first time I've been here, not only went down there to get a company phone, and all I remember I signed a thing that said no porn on like all these phones. I was like hey, stay away from porn. And just I was like all right, that's easy but they weren't tracking any of that.
Speaker 7Oh they just I didn't want to.
Speaker 1I was like I'm not gonna be that guy.
Speaker 7I don't want to be that.
Speaker 1IT like you were no, not at all, so I can probably do that at work. I mean, is it company phone?
Speaker 3I mean, I didn't mean my phone at my computer.
Speaker 1Oh well, yeah, on a computer the site is probably blocked already, but if you do, try to go to it. It will send a report.
Speaker 3Security that says now you're doing so they would have to go and and read that Report.
Speaker 1Or if they get an email alert like yeah, oh, she went to.
Speaker 4Busty babes wait, you mean incognito work doesn't mean that it doesn't track.
Speaker 3We can't even get on tiktok. That work. They have that block, damn like on your computer. Yeah, or your phone. If you're connected to their Wi-Fi, you can't get on tiktok, you get in trouble.
Speaker 1That sucks now on where the colleges normally colleges don't filter out porn sites because it has something to do with if somebody's doing a research paper. I'm researching, yeah research right, I have to go to only fans.
Speaker 3I have to figure out a paper.
Speaker 4You know what? I only followed through with the meetup to actually see if this study will actually work.
Speaker 3Yeah, that's all I'm gonna do anything. I wasn't gonna touch anybody. Maybe it's because I'm at the teaching hospital. Not the university. Yeah, you're not at the university. They're like no, you don't get porn, they get porn, you're touching animals. Yeah, don't. I know it's tough on your ears.
Speaker 1Go in there and go lay down. We don't want to hear you whining and crying.
Speaker 3You don't need anything like an angel.
Speaker 1Yeah, look at her, she's used to it.
Speaker 4And then it was what it you? It was a UFC fight every month.
Speaker 1Yeah, we did that a lot back then like that was your hangout after it was.
Speaker 3It was, it was, it was a C days it was like Big.

Speaker 1Yeah probably which one? What my air force?
Speaker 3because I would probably be retiring right now If I like, stayed close like yeah you join right out of high school. Mm-hmm and then you do 20, right so, and I would be like I'll be a door greeter. Now I've got my retirement, I get in my, I probably have a disability, so I'm probably Some money for that we all do, I mean, you still have it. But I don't get paid for it now, oh yeah.

Speaker 1Yeah, there's Like if I had a relative or a daughter or somebody that was going into the military. There's probably some branches. I would say go do this one instead of maybe this one, don't go in the Marines.
Speaker 3Maybe I was like, I don't know if it really matters, maybe a hundred guys or guys and you got it.
Speaker 1You got to think that yeah you're around, you know young dudes, young dumb, full of cum, that kind of thing and you're like outnumbered by Probably a lot. Well that and that could be good, you have your pick of the litter until they turn on you.
Speaker 4And it's funny that we're like Like, even with, like shiply, I'm like. I'm like in my head I'm like, hey, if you join the service, I want you to go Air Force, I want you. But I think about it. I'm like, no, when I was 17, the same fucking old people like I am now Told me hey, don't fucking go Marine, don't go army, don't fucking be a grunt.

Speaker 3I was so in love that I went to these concerts Blow, I was so in love that.
Speaker 4I went from there to Afghanistan and got divorced while we were in Afghanistan. But the great part about it, when I come back.

Anybody want to go? And I was like, yeah, I go. I was like I have zero dollars. I was like I'm living off this government travel card that I'm not supposed to be fucking using, oh my God. And so I told Courtney. I was like, hey, I was like I got a fucking deploy. She knows nothing about the military. I can disclose this now because she found out about me volunteering like three years ago. Oh shit. It took this long.
Speaker 4Oh my God, I thought I was getting a divorce. So I told her I was like hey, I got to go to Iraq, she goes. You just fucking got back from Afghanistan.
Speaker 3Like in military, I was like fucking needs the army, bro.
Speaker 4Like shit's going down and they need people with experience. Little fucking E4, because I've got all the experience in the world now and she found out like yeah, it was literally three years ago that she found out that I volunteered for that and it went south Like I was like we're fighting about something that was a decade ago.
Speaker 1I was dumb.
Speaker 4That's what y'all do. Y'all bring up weird shit yeah.

Speaker 3She'd be like you, pissed me off again Actually she probably won't.
Speaker 4She's like oh, you fucking remember details. Now, motherfucker.
Speaker 3She won't actually say anything, though. She'll just be a dick to you. That's what I do anyway. You'll walk in and she'll be.
Speaker 1Hey, what's the blanket and pillow on the couch for? Yeah, it's for your ass.
Speaker 4Yeah, because I'm actually going to work in Tulsa next week for work. She's like did you fucking volunteer for that, or do I need to check in on that?

Speaker 3What's the secret to a long marriage?
Speaker 1Let your wife beat you up.
Speaker 3Let her punch you.
Speaker 4She can choke me, she just can't slap me. That's our rule.
Speaker 1No, if she's not giving him shit, that's probably when the problem is.
Speaker 4Oh my god, she will bust my balls in front of everybody. She lets it be known that.
Speaker 3Doesn't hold back.
Speaker 1Facebook Lives, Instagram videos. She should have you Now. Just write some funny videos, just poking fun at him. She rips on the funny, it is funny.

Speaker 3You're getting hot and bothered. I am getting hot and bothered, hey, talking about marriage.
Speaker 1Oh, god, here we go.
Speaker 3So nice.
Speaker 1No, I think you do have to have the. You've got to allow the other to be silly at times, to be goofy, to really be themselves. You know, and I think that's that is definitely what helps if you can just laugh together. And you know, we still have our arguments at times, but they seem to be very few and far between, because I think at some point you just go. You know we're we're kind of bickering or arguing about something that this doesn't mean anything, right, what are we doing? This is stupid. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 7Right, you know, whatever, it is a small little thing.
Speaker 1You got to let those little things just fucking go Right, Dude I got to lean on her for everything I got to.
Speaker 4She's always when I got I got to go to for my advice, because if I lean on my own I want to fuck it up every time he's going to be volunteering, for God knows I will. I will easily revert back to Stratford. Stratford will come out and I'm like, hey, I can survive. But yeah she's she's she's my voice of reason for sure. It's.

Speaker 4So I think it's full transparency in our house, like I don't but Courtney does, and he doesn't even.
Speaker 3Yeah, like so, I just even noticed. But he doesn't Bad at night. It's weird and I'm like he's. He's still a baby to me.
Speaker 4But he's growing bald hair and he told that 10. Yes, Kids have a little bit of mustache, but he's going to be pissed off at me if he hears any of this. He laughs at this and there's stuff of shit. But he, uh, Courtney, asked Courtney, he's telling me this morning Uh, she's like he say he doesn't want to shave it because it like he's the only one that has it. And I was like he's fucking talking about this around school. I was like.
Speaker 3he's like yeah, I got a ball here, I got it. You little baldies. God, I cannot picture a sawyer like that.
Speaker 4Like it's crazy what the stuff they know now is crazy, because I remember being on the bus at Like I got I didn't get suspended. I got a lot of detention because I was in class and I was probably like a good 13 years old and a buddy of mine called me a virgin and I was ready to fight. I was like I'm not a fucking virgin.
Speaker 4I was like don't fucking call me that I like girls I didn't even know what a virgin was at the, and now she's like he could sit here and probably tell me stories. I'm like what are you fucking? Yeah, I'm sure your kid knows more than what he's putting on, oh God that's fine.
Speaker 3He does watch YouTube, so Tell me he was watching Trump videos. I need to go.
Speaker 1There you go.

And he's Sawyer is sitting down and reading a book and this is kind of cool, but for a nine year old you're like what the fuck the US Constitution is? Reading the US Constitution? Now, look, that's cool, Like.
Speaker 4But how fucking boring are you for your kid?
Speaker 1Well, I'm boring.
Speaker 3I'm just like hey, I'm real boring.
Speaker 1At some point, maybe some of the things you do might get you picked on. So all I'm saying is maybe, though, when you pull out some reading class, don't pull out the US.
Speaker 6Like a declaration, you know captain underpants or some shit.
Speaker 4You know this kid is going to be the one that you're getting a phone call because he has the. Don't tread on me. Explain to the teacher what the fuck it is when she's like, no, that's derogatory, we can't have that. Now let me tell you what it is. Let me tell you. You see that. You know what I'm talking about the little. What was he like?

Let me explain what this, what this is, and she's like not willing to listen to it and he ends up beating her like he's a, like they end up doing some debate and everything.
Speaker 3Yeah he was like 10.
Speaker 4Yeah, this is like made like national news because he was running for student office.
Speaker 3Yeah, that's going to be so, for sure.
Speaker 4Yeah, I can at least put a book cover on it like a yeah cool one, like Playboy.
Speaker 7Yeah, yeah, back to the fresh man.
Speaker 1So that that's a story about Eric Jevre here about the first time he bought a porn magazine. No, so he turns 18. The very first thing this loser, fucking deviant wants to do is I'm 18. They will sell new deemags to me and so he go remember the old store Hastings. Oh yeah, so he goes to Hastings and you know, back then New deemag had a big black bar, you know, on the cover so you couldn't see any. Yeah, he picks up one that's College freshman.
Speaker 4Because why not?
Speaker 1He buys it, goes out to the car and he says, as soon as I get in the car I'm ripping the cover off the plastic and I'm ready to. It was fresh space men, so fresh men. It was a gay mag, so when he opened it up it was just cock and balls.
Speaker 4And butters, and butters, Bro. I mean that kind of explains why he didn't fucking let it. Let us in on this.
Speaker 1Mm, hmm, and so he goes in and actually returns.
Speaker 3I didn't mean to.

Speaker 4I don't know if I, if I, walked into place and saw a magazine. I haven't seen magazines in a long time.
Speaker 3And I don't think they're a thing anymore. I was there, was got a.
Speaker 1I've said like I wish they would bring back the nudie mag, because because young boys these days aren't going to to live through that Like joy and utter amazement that somehow you found your dad's porn mag Right.
Speaker 3Yeah, it was like your fingertips. You had to go and sneak.
Speaker 7Yeah, and then you're like back.
Speaker 4And then that one that folds out, oh, the center fold of it, and then those are kind of together.
Speaker 1I can't get it Whatever.
Speaker 4And then you're convinced that that's where she really went to college and that she has it, that she's actually like and she likes me. And I'm not even a reader, but I would find myself amazed by these videos because I'm like, I'm putting, I'm inserting Corey every time there's a fucking Charles in there. That no that's. No, that's Corey that went in that room.
Speaker 3Corey did that.
Speaker 1But I would want them to bring about, bring back porn mags and then make like scratch and sniff stickers.
Speaker 4So what the fuck? Yes, can you imagine being a tester for that?
Speaker 3What would it be tuna?
Speaker 1I mean, maybe some crunchy magazines would do that. Yeah, smell like a red lobster.
Speaker 4What else would it be? It would have to be. I mean, you'd have to base off a past experience. I mean why?
Speaker 3not vanilla and roses.
Speaker 4Yeah, why not you?
Speaker 3know a little cucumber melon.
Speaker 1That's not real life, and then you could do like a seasonal ones or like holiday times, where Cranberry sauce. I bet she smells like pumpkin spice.
Speaker 4Oh, now I'm thinking the Pond Cones, because now everybody goes that.
Speaker 1Pond.
Speaker 4Cones smell.
Speaker 1Little taxi cab.
Speaker 4Little, little little pine tree, Her Pond Cones, little cinnamon sticks I get you going.
Speaker 6Cinnamon sticks yeah.
Speaker 3Is that not big? Yeah, kids just don't understand anymore.
Speaker 1No no, no, they're. They're never going to live through that. I remember when finding dads like he had stashed them out in the barn and some one day I came across them yeah, I remember seeing him too and I was like I don't look like that.
Speaker 3I was like whoa, this looks different than me.
Speaker 1I'm going to be in the barn all the time. Yes, dude, and then they don't get that enjoyment now. Now, it's just so like oh, wow, okay, it's all right there, yeah.
Speaker 4I mean 12 year olds are getting busted on Snapchat now for.
Speaker 7I mean girls, their age seven, seven their own kitty porn.
Military Surgery and Post-Military Work
Speaker 1Right, crap. No, that's what it is, though They'll like scare the kid and be like you know you're. You know, technically, under the law you're distributing child porn. Yeah, but I'm doing it and it's me. Well, you're a child, that's weird. You're a you're, I'm my own pedophile, oh God, yeah, that's weird. I guess when we masturbate we're our own pedophile when we're minors. But I gave myself consent, so that's the difference.
Speaker 3We're like no, no, I'm sure someone has done that. I said no, yeah, I said no, man, this has gotten way off.
Speaker 5I like it I like it.
Speaker 1I thought we were talking about veterans.
Speaker 3But, this is what veterans do. Talk about veterans.
Speaker 1This is what we talk about.
Speaker 4It's gotta be dark.
Speaker 1Well, I mean no, but oh boy.
Speaker 3Maybe I shouldn't have joined or I didn't, but I mean, if I was going to you would have been a slut.
Speaker 7Probably.
Speaker 3Ear, I would have got to travel though.
Speaker 1That was a good.
Speaker 3that's kind of a nice thing, Sees and shit you know living in Just boring.
Speaker 1Oklahoma For three years. That was fun. I didn't marry someone in the military, that half counts. Yes, kind of counts. You put up with a service member, so it counts.
Speaker 3Yeah, and a deployment.
Speaker 4I don't know. I think being a spouse is a lot harder than being a fucking service member.
Speaker 1Oh, for sure 100%. Yeah.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 1When we're deployed off.
Speaker 4What responsibility do we have?
Speaker 1We don't think a fucking thing of what's going back on Back home.
Speaker 4We don't care Like you try During that phone call. Okay, yeah, you try to during that phone call but it doesn't fucking. It's not the same. Yeah, no, but wait, but I didn't have kids going on, like I like shipply and Oakley, like what, no, Like they weren't even thought of yet.
Speaker 1So we had, we had. Yeah, the boys were babes when I went to Kosovo. Maybe the Logan was born when I got back from Kosovo. It's kind of running together, no.
Speaker 3Was it born?
Speaker 4in.
Speaker 3Germany.
Speaker 4Uh-huh. So when did you get out 2002.
Speaker 1I got hurt, I got all these hernias and um. You know, military surgeons surgeons aren't always fantastic, right?
Speaker 1And the one that did my first hernia repair the, the German doctors, because I actually went to a German emergency room first, um, because of the pain I was having. And uh, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was Christ. We're trying to translate each you know. We're trying to figure out what each other is saying and I'm trying my best to to understand. And First I was like it's, do you mean like appendix? And he was like nine.
Speaker 4Are you fucking shit me like there was.
Speaker 3No, interpreter no.
Speaker 1You are your own fucking interpreter understand a decent amount of it because I've already been over there two and a half years, probably a little longer, so is that why they circle the left arm, like with a big circle, like hey, this is our surgery arm, like I nine, nine, nine.
Speaker 1Probably, it's probably just American doctors Because they're saucing it up or something before. Yeah, but they found, and I went, hernia, do you mean hernia? And he was like yeah, yeah, so we had a good laugh. But he found two. I have to go to sick call in the morning, and so I see the PA, I give him all the paperwork from the emergency room and the report, like there's two hernias, and he's like they come down there, they decide that there's only one and I was like no, but I mean I don't know how to convince you but whatever.
Speaker 1And so went and had my first surgery in Heidelberg and man, it looked like that dude used an old, dull, rusty scalpel. That whole surgery site is just mangled. It looks like Frankencock down there. What's the fuck? Yeah, and so I'm still, so I get through and recovery from the one he said he repaired and so I'm trying to get back to full duty. And it has been so long and I just keep having pain, like I'm like God, this man, my fucking nuts are hurting like Right, right, where you're growing is it's like I can't what's going on. And I was in Fort Irwin by that time and trying to get my combat infantry badge and all that shit Get trying to get my CIB and doing it all not knowing that the first repair also failed. So I'm trying to do all this shit, just with my guts going into my nut sack, and finally I get them to send me to the on post hospital and they do an ultrasound and they're like oh yeah, yeah, we got to do that.
Speaker 4That's what it took.
Speaker 1Mm, hmm, mm, hmm. So I had a bilateral latroscopic hernia repair. And I just wasn't right after that All the nerve damage I already sustained from that poor fucking surgery the guy did when I was in Germany and so like long road marches, jogging, sit up, shit like that, and I got worse pain ever. And so I got medically separated soon after that, in 2002, and then just had worked like well, I worked at TSA right after I got out and at the airport at the airport being an airport screener and that was pretty fun, that's a fucking crazy time to do that yeah.
Speaker 4Yeah, they were fucking changing like their procedures there.
Speaker 7Mm, hmm.
Transition to IT Job and Culture
Speaker 1It was insane to the point where you have this over, you're over a complicating security, not that. But maybe you went a little too far and I can kind of get some of it. A lot of people were just scared but like you, couldn't get on the plane and nail file because I had a little point at the tip of it, the weapon. And I just looked at this checkpoint supervisor when he took it and I was like I know we're supposed to, but Someone can take that ballpoint pen and do the same kind of damage as that fucking nail file.
Speaker 4You're right, let's take all the pins. Let's take all the pins.
Speaker 1Yeah, and then good catch, and then no one got pins on the plane.
Speaker 4You got a fucking certificate. You got an award.
Speaker 1This is ridiculous. And then like little grandmals coming down in wheelchairs and everything were treated like a grandma might be hiding her bomb in a diaper, you know, check her butthole and like just totally so it would.
Speaker 1It was silly, but it was a fun job for a while. But then it got more to where really the upper management in Oklahoma city were former police officers and they had no fucking people skills, none whatsoever. They didn't know how to manage people on like a work schedule. So we had awful work schedules like mandatory seven days on, one day off, working 12 hours a day, and oh God. So then from there I went to like a uniform delivery company, like a sentos yeah, it was a competitor of theirs, ameri, ameri pride or something. Anyway, that was pretty fun for a while but then they had layoffs. Then started working at that oil filled company that dumb ass. Watson told me about Garrett trucking because he drove for them.
Speaker 3I forgot you were there.
Speaker 1So I worked as like a little shop mechanic working on big diesel trucks.
Speaker 4It's funny, the shit you'll like you'll just pick up after you get out of the military. Yeah, yeah, fuck, I'll try that. Yeah, I'll do that.
Speaker 1Okay, I'll do it.
Speaker 4I always love mechanic work and but you sell yourself short, like you. Like you don't realize until way later that you're like bro. I could be running this fucking company right now, or I could be running this division based off of just my little bit of leadership skills acquired.
Speaker 1Yeah, oh, yeah for sure. And then I just got tired of the mechanics work after a while and I was like I need to do something with my GI bill. So then I went to OSU, okc and one of their IT programs and then one day I came in early for class and actually saw a printout from cobb engineering that they were hiring entry level IT job or IT position. I went, okay, I might as well apply, and I did. And so I got the job. But what my boss at the time said was the reason you got hired wasn't wasn't because IT experience, because I didn't really have any besides a little bit of my own and from what I learned in school already. But when I called all of your references, the first thing they said was you won't find a harder worker. Some of that came from the military. A lot of that came from our dad. Our dad's always worked hard doing landscaping and I think our family just kind of works hard. Yeah, we're all just, and so sometimes it's not what experience you have necessarily.
Speaker 1Did they care about your military? Well, I mean no not really.
Speaker 4I don't think people looked really at the military at the time of because going through that Cold War area, I don't think they looked at it as a true leadership quality until they were in the military. A true leadership quality until probably what? To that late, maybe 2009.
Speaker 1Somewhere- I was going to say 10. Yeah, somewhere in that area. 10. It kind of changed, yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, they're probably one of a lot of like emphasis on it, or does nobody knew anything about.
Speaker 4You weren't really doing anything in the military, for the most part prior to 2001. Like as far as what the military, what, what you could grasp of what the military did.
Speaker 1I think it's also just Just, maybe even socially, a social change in that learning that these kids straight out of college cannot be fucking leaders, right, not, not a majority of them. They don't, they have no clue, and that's that's. Another thing that's funny is just when someone graduates college, has a degree in something, it doesn't mean you're going to get that job.
Speaker 1Yeah, because you might have somebody else that has 10 years of experience without that degree and already has some projects that show success. There you go Right, but then you get into that whole entitled bullshit. But can I still one of your white clothes?
Speaker 1Hell yeah, yeah. But it was like OK, I still want to use my GI Bill, but I don't want to keep going to OSU OKC because I was having to leave work early to go to class and then be at class till nine or ten at night or whatever, and I was learning way much more working on the job, way more than I did when I was in school. So I was like I don't even want to do the school and the GI Bill has an OJT and on the job training program. But your place of business also has to have this kind of on the job training type of a thing and then that business can apply to be certified to do a GI Bill on the job.
Speaker 4So you're the one that got Cobb to pick up that HR system Nice.
Speaker 7Yeah.
Speaker 4I mean that was that was a huge benefit. I think when I started it, it gradually, it was a step, it as it, as you stepped up, it was a step down and pay based off of how much they gave you. Yeah, but you made up for it through raises. But I remember, like it, it was a huge.
Speaker 1Yeah, you're talking A huge chunk of money Tax-free, you're getting an extra. I don't know what it was, maybe it's back then, maybe it was. It was why a car payment. Yeah, I was going to say like 1500, maybe a little less than that a month, maybe 1100. But yeah.
Speaker 4I mean, it was, it was, it was substantial.
Speaker 1Yeah, and, and, to get that tax free. Yeah definitely help. So, yeah, and so that's why, when meeting you and learning about you, I was like OK, we just started this program.
Speaker 4And I mean it's a, it was a. It was a kick-ass company to work for. It was so much fun and even when, up until we got in that new building, it like it was a mom and pop business. Yeah, like it really felt like a mom and like it was overwhelming to me at first, but I mean, even 90 people felt like a lot, but it really it really was a mom and pop company.
Speaker 1I mean it was.
Speaker 4It was like the way that Jim treated everybody, like the way he cared for everybody.
Speaker 1Jim Cobb yeah, founder, son, that the business got passed down to him and this this.
Speaker 4this guy was the. He was on the founding. What's that? Pistol Pete's or oh?
Speaker 1yeah, there's like a OSU alumni group. I can't remember their name, but yeah, he was a founding.
Speaker 4Yeah, the paddle board people right, or was it the oh no?
Speaker 1Oh, I don't remember what it was, but yeah, the.
Speaker 4OSU president would come into Cobb Like they graduated together. So the was it hard, that wasn't Hargis? What?
Speaker 1It was the. I think it was Burns Hargis.
Speaker 4Was it yeah?
Speaker 1Because he would come to the, to the building, ever so often. How come guys like?
Speaker 3that, always with the name like that, and get a job Like your names can't be Burns, hargis, you're like a fucking waiter or something Like you've got to be like a CEO every time.
Speaker 7I know.
Speaker 3Fucking weird. It is.
Speaker 7Burns.
Speaker 1Burns. That's why I go by Shane Hargis, exactly.
Speaker 3Sometimes you meet, like I worked for this veterinarian and his name was Roman Wolf. It was just like Mm. Hmm, that name, you know. It's just like OK, you're, you're important, you're automatically important.
Speaker 4Well, my best friend that does the nonprofit with me. He, he had to change his name. He, he went from fucking Ronnie to Ron because he's like man it's. I looked it up, it's more professional. He wrote I was like the fuck out of here, dude. I was like you will always be trash painted to me, you're not going to be running. I was like. I was like I'm getting you business cars, maize, it will fucking say Ronnie. I was like we're not.
Speaker 3Going by.
Speaker 1Ronald, so I want to go by Ronald.
Speaker 4So I'm like when I talk to people, I'm like I have to. I put this professional Ron in there and I'm like, bro, I was like I can't even fucking say it without puking in my fucking mouth a little bit. I try to be an honest person here.
Speaker 3I am using your fucking round, get all round legal name.
Speaker 7Your government name government.
Speaker 1Yeah, and then Jim, before we got hired, jim would do like Like beer Fridays or something like at lunch you could have a beer. Yeah dang. So at lunchtime everybody's got their lunch at their desks, you got?
Speaker 3a fucking.
Speaker 6PBR or something.
Speaker 1I was like OK that's cool.
Speaker 3Nothing wrong with that, I mean, I would be done for that.
Speaker 1And then that shifted to the oh yeah, Didn't it become?
Speaker 3more Christian yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 3It all religion.
Speaker 1Yeah, it was a sad time when Jim was kind of pushed out and then they weren't Cobb Engineering Company anymore. They were just CEC and it totally.
Speaker 4It's just crazy how that dynamic, can that culture shift?
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, it went from mom and pop to super professional. Not that they didn't put out professional work, just like we're corporate now.
Speaker 4Right, you couldn't, like Jim would let somebody go and speak on his behalf. You could go out and work for a job and talk to big wig people, and now it's like, hey, we need a board president to speak to those people Like man this is too much for me, it's it's a lot now.
Speaker 4I'm sure still one of the better companies to work for in Oklahoma and the people that go from there do professional things that like Like Joe, I mean you're not going to get a better knowledgeable person than Joe. I mean he went and him and Shane went and opened up their deal, or yeah, and then got their own little surveying companies.
Speaker 1Now, yeah, it does. It does help you kind of jump off to something else. Just wish sometimes, when people left there and then had this awesome success afterwards, that that company should have saw the value that they had you know, I mean. And it like got to the point where it was so corporate that Some of these guys they didn't see as being corporate. Right Is how I, how I think of it.
Speaker 4Yeah, what started out as blue collar workers? Yeah.
Speaker 1Now you got to be suit and tied up and you're like dude, I'm a land surveyor man. What do you mean?
Speaker 4I'm like you're not going to put the Gillardi in me, Like you're not going to move me to Gillardi and put Gillardi in me, Gillardi in me.
Speaker 1Yeah, I was bitter about being laid off from there for a while because I put in so much time, so much preparation to get To coordinate that it move, which I leaned heavily on. The survey guys those were some of the guys I really enjoyed talking to every day. I didn't want to go talk to a lot of the other office people.
Speaker 4Dude, you remember those late nights we put in at Tulsa.
Speaker 1Running wire. Running cable terminating.
Speaker 4So I vaguely remember I might be wrong on the personnel, but what is somebody from it that when they let them go like it was like, hey, we're going to have to escort you out, you can't.
Speaker 3Those, you go Fuck dude, they weren't going to let me go down, or something.
Workplace Issues and Frustrations
Speaker 1They weren't going to let me go back to my office to pack up some of the little collectible things I'd put in that office and I said you're not shipping those. Sorry, not going to happen. I'm going to go get them right now. You can come with me, you can escort me back there, but I'm not leaving without my stuff. You're not going to treat me like that, sorry.
Speaker 4Yeah, that was like word got out like wildfire about that and with his brother working with us, like we like we were like what the fuck Like survey was? Like hey, we're done, like we don't want to even be in this building right now because we had that other shop and we were like we don't even want to be in here.
Speaker 1It was. It was an odd time for them. Like no, I was. I was just bitter for a while. I eventually got over it because I, you know, business is business and they learned their fucking lesson in the end because they hired some Um managed services provider, three, nines and yeah, I'm going to shit on a local company right now, but they deserve it. Um, somehow cop CEC got hit with a ransomware virus that encrypted all these files and then those are held for ransom and the hacker that did it is like pay me X millions of dollars and I'll give you the, the, the code to unencrypt all that data. And uh, so they were like ah, we can't do that. We're just going to wipe shit and restore things from backups. If I can company never check their backups.
Speaker 3Oh God.
Speaker 1And they lost, I want to say, months of data, Like and so I think CEC maybe sued that managed services provider. Like you guys were supposed to be checking backups. And like I had a rock solid backup policy going, Like I even did some uh offsite backups of data that I would test weekly on deleting a file, restoring it. Oh yeah, it's good, it works Okay, Cool.
Speaker 4Dude, y'all's two man crew was fucking phenomenal how y'all had it. I thought it was, you know, doing the best we could but I thought it was going, it was great.
Speaker 1But so then after that they ended up having to they hired their own IT people again and it's just like okay, whatever it wouldn't, have happened. Right, you wouldn't have gone through that if you would have just kept your staff on site, if you needed to have a different conversation about some stuff, you know, I don't know, but you didn't. You treated me like I was a middle manager at that point. What also made me mad was my supervisor.
Speaker 7They moved you to some official title that so I assumed that you were part of the staff.
Speaker 4Then I was like, hey, I'm not going to be a manager. I was like he's.
Speaker 1Yeah. So they, they offered me a salaried position as one of their middle managers. That came with like a different bonus structure and all the shit, and I was like a decent pay raise. And I was like, okay, I love this company, they've been great to me, they've provided the opportunity for me to provide a good life for my family. So, yeah, I'll take that. And then a year after moving into that new building, when when we made the big lift and shift, people shut down a little bit early on Friday, they came in Monday morning and logged in and shit for the most part was running like nothing ever happened. And a year later, basically see you. And then I start thinking back of how much time I put in prepping that new building, working through plans, making sure the cable infrastructure was what we need, all this shit. I would have made so much money if I would have stayed hourly.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, it's always like that, so I was definitely in the hole of where I would have been Right and then never saw a bonus that was in the bonus structure, because they were always like bonuses aren't really part of your salary there's. If we can give bonuses, then yeah, but what was fucked up was they laid us off, me and Steve, and that was the was he the short he?
Speaker 4was the other veteran dude right Like yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. He was a fucking character man. Oh yeah, it was. He was cool as shit to be around Like he was smart.
Speaker 1Yeah, they laid us off and that was in like September, october-ish, and that Christmas they gave out bonuses.
Speaker 3A-hole.
Speaker 1And Eric told me and he goes, of course, yes, you're happy to get this extra money, but it came at a cost with, like all these people being laid off my brother getting laid off that ran IT and no one knows who's running IT right now Right. Some strange company that we don't even know he goes, so this bonus is really fucking bittersweet.
Speaker 4Yeah, but not only that, but CEOs like showing that they're CEOs by driving around in certain cars, moving in certain neighborhoods Porsche Cayenne.
Speaker 1We can't give you a bonus, but we just heard this guy got a brand new Porsche.
Speaker 4Have you ever watched the? What's that fucking movie? The dude from Eastbound and Down?
Speaker 7Oh yeah.
Speaker 4They opened up that new movie, or they opened up that series with a.
Speaker 3On HBO. Will you get me one?
Speaker 4It is. It is HBO, but it's a what is that called the Royal Something?
Speaker 7Yes, that's what he reminds, me of.
Speaker 4That's what he reminds me of. Bro, I'm like, I know you're doing blowback, I know what you're doing.
Speaker 1Oh, I got a story about him because I saw him that next year there was something like I got laid off and then maybe it was the next year or I got laid off earlier, I can't remember. But I saw him at the state fair, like we were walking down one of the pathways, and I saw him and I damn sure know he saw me, and just because our eyes did kind of lock, there for a second he looked off another direction and just kind of veered off and was like dude, what did?
Speaker 1you think you could have just been like hey, shane, how you doing Blah, blah, blah. Okay, I would have been cordial too, yeah, but like you're just so fucking weird, you're so weird.
Speaker 4He was a weird fucking dude to be around. It made it real fucking awkward to just be around there. Like you felt like you were in lockstep, yeah, but you had all those. I feel like a majority of those fucking guys went off to do other things. And I still keep in contact with certain people on Facebook, like Jason Davis, like keeping up with his family and all those other people. But then I'm noticing like you're creating some fucking fake ass names for people to move into to give them a spot. Yeah.
Speaker 4Just just pay the man, don't. Don't fucking make up stupid fucking positions.
Speaker 1And they would even treat their professional, their PEs, their professional engineers they would treat differently than everybody. Yes, because there is a guy that busted in my office one time because we were he. Something happened and he like spilled his drink near his computer or some shit. And I said, oh man, that really you know, electricity and your sweet tea or whatever you have, that really don't mix. And so I just made like a stupid joke about it, like, dude, it's cool, I could, we can get your data back, it's not that big of a deal.
Speaker 1He busts in my office and I was just I was on a call with Jim Cobb, he had called me about something. And this guy like basically kicks open my office door and is like what's your fucking problem? And I hit my mute button on my phone real quick and I go I'm on with Jim Cobb, you can give me a minute. And so got off with Jim and I was like what, oh, what's your problem with me? I was like, dude, I made a joke because you, you spilled your drink near your computer, don't? You know, water and electricity don't mix. So yeah, dude, it was a joke, it's cool, we're going to help you out. I just couldn't at that moment, right, because I was in the middle of helping someone else. Steve's already helping someone else, and then I get a call from Jim Cobb. I'm kind of going to take that call. Sorry, jim Cobb is higher on wrong than you buddy, but anyway.
Speaker 1but like I went and told my supervisor about that, like, hey, man, that's, that's not cool at all when you have someone coming in kicking open an office door, being confrontational to somebody in the workplace. You know what they call that right.
Speaker 3Harassment.
Speaker 1Yeah, An unsafe working environment. Yeah, Like. And then they just like they're like you're a troublemaker. That guy. He got a divorce not too long ago.
Speaker 7Yeah, I wonder why.
Speaker 4Let's paint her to what's going on with their home life. Like everybody else, doesn't have one, yeah.
Speaker 1I have shit happening, You're just IT right, like you, you only do this. Yeah, I'm always in this room.
Speaker 4You're the Saturday night log guy that tells me fucking move.
Speaker 1But yeah, yeah. So they're kind of like TSA Very fun place to work for in the beginning.
Speaker 4And then there was a culture shift that really fucked things up for at least the the OG people that were there from those days Like but so many people want to be part of that fucking that Thai community like they want to wear that fucking suit and tie and they want that I'm like, fuck dude, just pay me like I'm wearing a suit and tie and let me work my ass off Like I just want to get dirty. Yeah.
Haircuts, Driving, and Health Insurance
Speaker 1Like, I'm going to, I'm going to create that sound bite. Yeah, so when I first started with the state back in 2015, I started as a project manager and then this other project manager always wore suit and tie. Now I was wearing slacks of, but not, right, I wasn't coming in looking like a slob. But he goes hey, you might want to start wearing suit and tie to work, because People just give you more respect when you're wearing the suit and tie. And I looked at him and go except for me, oh yeah, I don't care. I don't care what someone wears, and if I'm working with people that maybe let's say, like survey a little more blue collar, like ODOT most ODOT people are not suit and tie. Right, I'm not going to wear a suit and tie. I'm sorry, that's not how I think you get respect. You earn the respect and you do that by treating them well, letting them know they're they're valuable, that they're assisting you a lot and you appreciate it. All that stuff. Just be a good person. It doesn't matter, right?
Speaker 1What you fucking wear doesn't matter, I don't care. People could come to work in shorts, I don't care. Ladies can wear, fucking can prese. Why can't guys wear a nice pair of shorts? That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4You're a good fucking person. That's what it comes down to.
Speaker 1I just had this talk with Hunter the other day that I told him the I very much believe that the energy you put out into the world is the energy you're going to get back. So if you're always negative about shit, everything you're talking about your it's just this job fucking sucks, my boss sucks fucking, the world sucks, right, yeah, your world's going to fucking suck. That's what you're going to get back garbage in, garbage out.
Speaker 4Yeah, that's what it is.
Speaker 1So, if you can, just be a good person and just some kind of positivity. That doesn't mean I don't get pissed off when people drive like fucking lunatics. But when I'm at a store, a restaurant, that person working the counter, working the register, taking my order, they deal with enough shit and a lot of times things that are happening in that restaurant that you may be pissed off about they have no control over.
Speaker 1No they don't. They don't order the chicken or the salmon and, oh my God, they ran out of salmon. Is it that person's fault, right?
Speaker 3I'm never going to people that do.
Speaker 1Katie and your fucking waitress she's the one that orders salmon?
Speaker 4I doubt it Go go on and get in a haircut this morning. Courtney always cuts my hair so I don't go get haircuts anywhere. This morning she was like, hey, she goes, we've got too much shit going on you and she'll go get a haircut, so we go to supercuts like guys.
Speaker 4We go to sports clips. Yeah, Supercuts was closed because it's a veteran's day. They don't want to give out the free haircut. So we we roll down to sports clips and shift. He's like he's never had the MVP, MVP treatment, so he's back there getting that. This fucking cuck fucking comes up to the counter and he's like hey, he goes. There's a lot of people in here right now. He goes if I just put my name on the online, he goes how long after can I come in and still get priority? After my, after my limit, after my call has come, and she was like I don't understand. He's like well, I want to know that I'm still going to get priority, even because I'm on the list.
Speaker 4But you didn't want to make it, I started laughing and she kind of saw me laughing, so she she went ahead and expressed her laughter about it and he was like is something wrong? I was like yes, yeah, you're going to get in the line. I was like something is wrong. I was like you're going to fall. I was like I assume you're going to fall in where you came in at and you won't be number one anymore and that your name's not going to be up there. I was like that's just me thinking. I was like I might be wrong and they're like no, he pretty much summed up what I wanted to say.
Speaker 1It better yeah, of course they want to say it better. But if you just walked in, sir, let's break this down for you. Just walked in and let's say you're the eighth person in line and you're like, fuck that, I'm going to go do it online.
Speaker 1You're going to the eight spot in line or probably lower, because are you going to do it on your own? Are you going to do it on your phone? Are you going to go back home to a computer and do it? We've had three more people walk in, five more people already reserved online, and now you're number 20 instead of number eight.
Speaker 3Also, your time is not more valuable than anyone else.
Speaker 1No no.
Speaker 4And you talk about being patient, I was, except where I'm driving somewhere Speaking of driving.
Speaker 6Get out of the fuck.
Speaker 1Get the fuck out of my way, this fucking guy would drive.
Speaker 4I mean, obviously you know you've been around him for a lot longer than I have. I remember, like some of the memories I have, you fucking being told, hey, meet me halfway to pick up the kids and you would drive your ass to you drive beyond Stroud. I know that, Like when you go pick up the kids.
Speaker 7I was like God damn dude.
Speaker 4I was like you would never like it. It was never a meet halfway. I felt like you were always the one.
Speaker 1I want to see my kids, so you drive. Sometimes it wasn't even halfway, like we were Stroud halfway. Yeah, where that McDonald's and truck stop used to be now you can only get to it coming westbound, yeah, westbound, yeah, always say southbound, but yeah, it's westbound but and then sometimes it would be, I would pull up there and it would be oh, you're going to have to drive to Tulsa.
Speaker 1I don't have money for the tolls, god damn. Now there are also times when the boys started sports up there, like when Hunter started basketball. I would drive to, like Catoosa Sky took for a 20 minute basketball game on weeknights. He'd have a basketball game on, you know, tuesday night and it's like I'm going right, no doubt, but I would go there and then games over and parents are all around with their kids and they're like oh, you're Hunter's dad, oh, cool. So where do you live?
Speaker 1in Norman or wherever I was, dill City, wherever? Oh, you drive all this way for a 20 minute basketball game.
Speaker 4Like yeah, I don't get every night. Is that my kid?
Speaker 1Is that not a? I mean, why is that a question? I mean, it's not that far. Two and a half hours, three hours, most. Yeah, I'm going to drive. Yeah, I'm just going to be sitting at home, right, not doing anything, like I'm not going to bed till midnight anyway. So yeah, I'm going to come up here.
Speaker 4Yeah, I remember you making that long ass fucking drive all the time like or just discussing it.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, it was God man when, when Logan turned 18, we had a party here and I didn't really tell him what the party was. You know I wasn't like no, this was a. I don't have to legally talk to your fucking mom. Yeah, I told you.
Speaker 1This party is um, yeah, I had a party about that because it was like, ah, I don't because even you know, I got custody of the boys. I think Hunter started fifth grade, so I don't know what, what age that is. But 10. Yeah. So you know, I had custody then and I still had to kind of talk to her, you know, and it was so fucking happy.
Speaker 4So how old are they now?
Speaker 1Hunter will be 26. Jesus Christ In December, December 2nd that's crazy. Logan turned 23 July 1st.
Speaker 4That's how it's fucking nuts, how you can think about it sitting. You're like. You're like dude. That wasn't too long ago.
Speaker 1It's like they were still kind of shitting their pants. I mean Hunter still is, yeah, I mean you know I do too he's survey, right you?
Speaker 7know army guys we shoulder pants. Yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, they're fucking old man, yeah I know, Hunter was over here, the other day and he was freaking out because he's like God, I'm almost 30. I was like dude, you'll be 26. Like yeah, almost, but you're not mad.
Speaker 4I want to let Courtney Sam almost 40. I'm like fuck off, Like I'm 38 years old, God damn it he goes.
Speaker 1Wait, I'm not going to turn 27. No, you'll be. Oh my God, I don't even know. Oh, I thought it was 26. I was like, no, stupid. No, I was like you have to get your own health insurance now. Sorry you age out.
Speaker 3But yeah, yeah, buddy.
Speaker 1Oh, that was shocking. I think that got me more than anything like open enrollment just happened, you know. So I'm in there doing my new health benefit selections and stuff Hunters. Not even on there, not even an option.
Speaker 3Right there, you take him off.
Speaker 1Yeah, because you know this. The new health insurance starts January 1st. He'll be 26. They were like oh, he'll be 26. Delete this fucker. God we're not paying for his shit. So I told him I was like hey, remember.
Speaker 4So do they come find you? Or like not not physically come find you, but do they start milling shit, saying hey, it's time to get insurance, or I get emails from a state and they're like hey, open them.
Speaker 1Oh him.
Speaker 3Oh, they're like fucking figure it out.
Speaker 1Yeah, they're just like Sorry.
Speaker 4So that's where, that's where my ignorance comes into play, like with being military this whole time, like what, how does one even go about? Like, how do you like, do you just go shopping for health insurance, like you'd be like, yeah, if you're, if you're an?
Speaker 1employer it doesn't offer it, which luckily CC does, do they?
Speaker 3Yeah, I figured they did.
Speaker 1But yeah, if, if you're out of a place, most places kind of have a program, but they're still those are like a lot of pop.
Speaker 3Sometimes they don't yeah, they don't, they can't afford it.
Speaker 1And so you got to go to healthcare marketplace. Wow, Punch in all your information and they're like oh, here's some shitty fucking insurance.
Speaker 3And it's $200 a month.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's shit Like so, when I got laid off from CC I had to put me and the boys on something and you know they're like oh, you can get to Cobra health insurance. Yeah, that's more than my fucking unemployment, oh my god. It doesn't make fucking sense. Jesus, that's a dumb, no. And so I had to go to fucking healthcare marketplace and to find something I could afford. I had to get the shittiest fucking insurance. Like I don't even know what provider it was, I just know all the no one would take it.
Speaker 1Ductables and shit like this, which I just had to set them super high. Yeah, your doctor bulls like Because I couldn't even apply for like, Like a discounted rate for being. You know under the? What do they call it? The?
Speaker 3poverty.
Speaker 1Well, yeah, the finance the your, however much money you make, you know, because me and Casey were married at the time and so we had to include not only her pay but also what I would get from unemployment and that put us over the qualifying limit and it's like how fucking Off on just bad luck Does someone have to be to get some assistance? That is insane, Because at the time she was the teacher salary. Yeah, that was making, you know, 30 something thousand a year and we had Hunter and Logan, our house and all that. We can't qualify for Cheaper health insurance Fucking nuts.
Speaker 1That is insane.
Speaker 3You have to like not work. Yeah, you have to not work.
Speaker 4So crazy, so crazy so that's why I talk about like when people like we have people all the time like get out of the military because they get disgruntled and shit, I'm like, bro, I'm like you don't. I was like, when you think about your pay, I'm like being a, even as a six, I mean you're making you're the top 10 percent of the Oklahoma salary. I was like dude. I was like, oh, you got to do is stay in and you get fucking promoted.
Speaker 4Yeah, just don't fuck up, yeah right, just don't fuck up more than once. Yeah, but you can fuck up once, easy. But like people talk about getting out, I'm like you're not. I'm like you're not thinking about the retirement, you're not thinking about the insurance.
Speaker 3All the benefits that come on. It's not just a paycheck, no, like I even say that about state employment.
Speaker 1Yeah because usually the state salaries are lower than what you can get in the private industry.
Speaker 4But isn't that why people are staying before retirement and shit?
Speaker 1So that's what I tell people. I say, OK, yeah, you could go make Twenty thousand dollars more in this private industry. You could go make that. I get that. However, here's some state benefits. The state gives you an allotment every month To help pay for your benefits package. So I have a kick ass fucking benefits package that I pay maybe two hundred dollars a month for.
Speaker 7So you have to add in.
Speaker 1That allotted money that they give to you, which is like, let's just say it's a thousand dollars a month, that's twelve grand minus the two hundred dollars a month you may pay. However, if you don't need kick out, kick ass health insurance, you can work it to where you actually pocket some of that allotted money. So you don't think about that. You go to the private industry. They may have a good benefits package. How much are they taking out of your check for? Yeah, you got to think about that.
Fast Food Jobs and Societal Opinions
Speaker 1Right. So it may be three hundred dollars a paycheck, six hundred dollars a month. That they're. Yeah, you're getting paid twenty thousand dollars more. We got state holidays. They're, at least for me, like this has been one of the best jobs.
Speaker 4And how long have you been? How long have you been here?
Speaker 1Eight years now and Not once have I put in Time off requests for vacation or being sick. Not once has someone given me shit About. They work around my filming schedules. When I get booked for a gig. They work around that for me like Go, try to find that Right. A lot of times in the private sector how much stress do you have? Tight deadlines? You know the state doesn't really have that many layoffs. It happens every now and again. Look what happens to the private industry. Look at fucking Dale. Oh yeah, dale does it all the time Like you won't even know. They're like hey, we need anybody's last name, a through L, going this room. Go over there and one of those rooms. All those people are laid off and they do get escorted out. You don't get to go back. It's like see you, you came to work thinking you still had a job and no, who was it?
Speaker 3Devon Chesapeake Was that one Chesapeake definitely yeah, like hugely.
Speaker 4Sandwich went completely under in that just real quick. They like her, yeah it seemed like it Like man.
Speaker 1So, anyway, I think A lot of young people right now are just looking at that salary number Right, right that number and don't take into account some of the other benefits you made.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, our hiring department told us they were like the new generation, or the generation graduating now looking for jobs. They don't care about retirement benefits, salaries, what, they're looking at the right now, they don't look at the future. We were like what?
Speaker 4And you got some kids that stuck it out at McDonald's and they're fucking making six figures. Mm, hmm, and I'm like we got to, we got to quit. Looking at these fucking fast food gigs is just hey, that's you know what. That's poor man's job.
Speaker 1Like I'm super nice to those people as well. Like I try not to eat fast food too much anymore, but there's times when it's super fucking convenient. Somebody has to work those jobs, right? Somebody does, and this person is willing to get up at Five AM to go start their shift at McDonald's. I have a lot of respect for those people, right 100%, because they work hard.
Speaker 4That that's not an easy job.
Speaker 1And they deal with a lot of shit, because a lot of people are so fucking entitled that their time is more valuable. Yes, it's the cashier's fault for the ice cream machine being broken, but the life lessons you're learning.
Speaker 4Like what's the difference between the ice cream machine and the ice cream machine? I think of two things, Like if I see somebody young working, I'm like the life lessons you're learning from being able to put up with all this shit that people throw at you and they expect 100% courtesy from you yeah, even when they treat you like shit.
Speaker 4Yeah, like the way you're able to handle that stress at that age. But then I look at the single mom and I'm like fuck man, like I bet this isn't your only job, no, and I bet you're having to fucking go home and take care of the kids after this too. Yep, like Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1And that and that's where that's where a part of me, if we kind of a little bit political, but that's where I like social programs that can benefit that single parent because they're going out busting their ass still. So I don't care how much money you give that family that's out there trying to bust their ass, but this is all they can do right now. Right, there should be a check. One day one day they may manage that fast food restaurant. Let's help them out right now when they need it. That's I'm cool with that.
Speaker 4There should be a block on the W two. That's fucking states. A single parent fucking doing this, or hey, this isn't my only job. Nobody wants to work. Two fucking jobs, nobody Barely.
Speaker 1Okay, you know what I want to work? One yeah.
Speaker 4I surprised that you're getting everything back on your fucking W two.
Speaker 1Like that's what it should be. Yeah, yeah, I do agree, I do agree, I do agree.
Speaker 1I don't like people when I don't like it. When people take advantage of a program, right, yeah, people like they buy shit, you know, maybe they're buying like a address or something for an event they have that weekend and then they go and return it. Right, you're kind of working the system and, yeah, especially legally, there's nothing illegal about it. But I've started this saying where I feel like everything's just fake, like your bank account. It's just numbers, right, you look at a screen and you're like, oh, I think, oh, yeah, today was payday. Those numbers went up. You don't see any transaction. Yeah, you don't see any document anymore.
Speaker 1That said, you know you're not cashing to check or depositing a check. It's just like, hey, these fucking fake numbers over here went up that this card tells me when I can buy something or not, you know. And then even at work, I try to be very professional. At work, I'm not cussing, doing shit like on this podcast. I'm kind of being fake. I'm not really being me at work. I'm being what people might need to see at work, because somebody might get offended because I called him a motherfucker, right, you know, I don't know why I can't call people motherfuckers, get over it.
Speaker 1You know, frowned upon, so it's all about being fake. And so when you're buying these things like a oh look at this fancy suit or this fancy fucking dress I'm going to wear to this event, set event happens, you're like, oh look, I'm keeping up with all the fucking other people over here, but you're returning that shit, right? I don't know.
Speaker 4It's the same fucking people that say that they'll sit there and judge how apparent parents are, but they'll get home like raising health or kids. But because that's behind closed doors you can do that, but then you get to judge the parent that's struggling with an autistic kid or somebody that you don't know how the fuck their day's going, but you're number one to fucking start judging how they act. But you're going to go home and treat your kids like shit. Oh yeah, yeah, it's just, we're in a fucking fake, fucking world.
Speaker 4Oh yeah, it's so fake, I think it's fucking stupid.
Speaker 1I think the parents of school-aged children Are so fucking fake at times because I get A lot of the having appropriate books for an appropriate age and like a library, right, I'm all on board, I get that. But if you're not checking your fucking kids phone at home when it is so easy to go find whatever the hell they want to look at online, if you're not doing that, don't go bitch at the school. No, you're fake. You're not doing it at home, right?
Speaker 4Don't go to those fucking school board meetings throwing up whatever's read in these fucking books. Don't let your phone get in the way of the school board. Let your fucking kid do that book. Yeah, like, don't get mad at the school when your kid brings home that book. You talk to that kid and be like, hey, this is why we don't get this, why we don't read this book in my house.
Speaker 1Yeah, but even to go along with that, the schools ought to also go. Maybe we don't have that book in this library. Oh yeah, like we are elementary school.
Speaker 4I don't know. Maybe y'all know better than I do. I don't know that these books are out there for these school-aged kids to get, or if we're just seeing what the media wants us to see.
Speaker 3Yeah, like who knows?
Speaker 4Like how do I know that you're standing up in front of the school board actually reading what your kid brought home, as opposed to your kids yeah, your older kid.
Speaker 7Yeah.
Speaker 4Like, because you're not telling us what age this kid is Right, you're just saying a kid, or did your kid even come home with a book?
Speaker 1Right, right, did you hear a story, yes, from someone that said it's happening over here, because they heard from someone. So then you're like, oh yeah, my kid brought this book home. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's, it's all fake.
Speaker 4That's where I have to give credit to Courtney. She is the way her shit.
Speaker 4It is 100 percent like, whatever we are in private, like she talks about in public, like she she really knows it. Like when you talk about, like your kid knowing the Trump stuff, like she really knows all the fucking red pill stuff, like. But she's full on transparent with hey, we don't. Like pedophilia is something we talk about a ton because it's a fucking secret that's kept around. Yeah, and it's like, oh, that'll never happen here. We talk about it tons. So he's always like like if she, if he sees Oakley walking around, he's like there's probably a creep in that bathroom, there's probably somebody doing this and it sucks that kids have to know that.
Speaker 3But they have to be real.
Speaker 4They have to be realistic because if something happens, they're traumatized for the rest of their life instead of being aware, and that's just that talk you have at home. So nothing is nothing's off limits of our house about what we talk about. I mean, we don't obviously it's not vulgar or anything, but it's a 100 percent laid out there. If this, this is what's going on with human trafficking. This is going on with sexual trafficking. Teachers are fucking creeps right now.
Rants About Driving and Political Debates
Speaker 3Well, yeah, it was like oh, don't talk about it Because we'll be embarrassed, so we don't talk about it. But it's like you have to deal with trauma or else, eventually, you're going to have to deal with it and it's going to be bad.
Speaker 4Because guess when that trauma comes out? It doesn't come out when they're teenagers it comes out when they're fucked up in their later childhood, like in their adulthood, and they're trying to either act out a child act, or that's when they're like, hey, this happened to me, but you know what? Nobody gives a shit now because I end up turned into a fucking drug addict.
Speaker 3Yeah, I'm an alcoholic or drug addict and nobody cares for you after you're a drug addict or alcoholic.
Speaker 1I think there's been some very shitty teachers that have given that, have given the teaching profession a bad name. Currently I don't believe. At least I refuse to believe because, being married to Casey her working in the school district, our sister-in-law working in the school district but the majority of teachers are not those teachers you see on the news.
Speaker 1That's like you know, preaching one way or the other, because you can go too far left, and let's talk about all these kind of things that a lot of it gets into sexuality and shit like that, where, yeah, teacher needs to kind of know their bounds, right, right. But you can also go too far the other way, in that it's overly religious and and that's not right, because you don't know what the parents, what they've talked to their kids about. So you have to really be in the middle, at least for school-aged children, if you want to get into those Far extremes on either side in college.
Speaker 1Okay, but I would say what would be better is Talk about both sides of the extreme, not just one, and that's what how I feel a lot of college professors are Preaching one way or the other, like you're not bringing in Multiple views so you can have a very Educated opinion on that subject right.
Speaker 4Yeah that's what I love about. What's the dude's name? Something, kirk, that does change my mind. Oh. Okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Steven. Steven Kirk not Kirk, but it's Steven.
Speaker 4We've got all these devil machines to look this up and we just can't devil.
Speaker 1I try to like to work my brain a little bit, you know like, let me see if my brain can fit Steven Crowder, oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 4But but like I love how, like you explain what you want to him and typically he shoots it down. But no, it's not, it's not an overbearing thing. Same with, like Jordan Peterson like they will let you Talk and then they'll try to educate you on a few things, or they'll. They'll hear you out. Yeah, that's the biggest thing. Just hear them out. Yeah like, let me listen to both sides.
Speaker 1There's oh man, there's. There's quite a bit of those Steven Crowder things that I've watched, the change of my mind, segments where I've gone, what's going on at some of these colleges.
Speaker 5Jesus.
Speaker 1Christ, these kids are fucking ignorant. They're just fucking ignorant, just so dumb. And so, like One this wasn't even Steven Crowder, it was somebody else. They were on a college campus and they were talking about, like, free tuition or something like that. And these two girls they had walked up to and they were talking about it and they were like, yeah, we support Free college. And they're like, well, somebody pays for it somewhere, you know, somebody does so. Like then they said to them specifically, they pointed it somebody walking by, so Are you okay with some of the money coming out of your paycheck to pay for their college? And they're like, oh, we're on scholarship, we don't even pay anything right now. It's like you, motherfucker, you don't fucking get it. No, nothing's free, sorry, someone's paying for it somewhere. And I think that's the thing. That just Little quick callback To those people that are buying the dresses and returning it You're taking advantage of something and somebody is losing money somewhere.
Speaker 1Right, maybe you're not losing money, but someone's losing money, so they take that product back. Someone's got to work to put that product back in the system. There's always a dollar amount at high. Oh yeah, to putting that back into stock because some person has man hours doing that. And then that company, that business, refunds you the full amount. They try to resell it, but they can't resell it at what they originally sold it. Oh yeah, now they got a discount. It Quite heavily most of the time just to get it out.
Speaker 1Someone's losing money somewhere, and what that does is eventually Drives the cost up of fucking everything else. Yeah.
Speaker 4That's got. That got me thinking the other day about, like the, the people that completely live on Subsidies and the government, what happens at age of social security, because you're supposed to be base paid based off of what you've paid it paid it into the system. Yeah, like how does that work once you're that age? Who knows? I?
Speaker 3think everybody gets it.
Speaker 1We'll find out soon. Yeah, I'll get there. Yeah, but you've worked, I'm guessing, I'll get there 50. You're talking about being almost 40. I'm almost 50.
Speaker 4Yeah, but that doesn't come to what. 62.
Speaker 1Yeah, but just I'm gonna be 50 fuck.
Speaker 4Yeah, but you're a fucking. You're moving up to an a-list, fucking celebrity right now.
Speaker 1Yeah, maybe I got 50 year old balls man. It's weird. It's weird, yeah, but in that case he still plays with I don't get it. But do you play with?
Speaker 4a 50 year old toy anybody?
Speaker 1No, they're falling apart, they're in a case. Maybe I just need to detach mine and put them up there and yeah, but just yeah, being like, think how we look at that, because I look at cards that I'm still like, I'm so Mesmerized by some of the cards I have and I'm like, fuck, I just want to touch that.
Speaker 4So bad, but I don't, because I know that I just can't. Gonna ruin it. Yeah, gonna ruin it.
Speaker 1Getting old weird, weird. But I still get mad at it. People that like, like pulling into a parking lot and you know they're, they're angled parking and they're angled so that traffic goes one way. Why are you coming down the other way? Do we not know this?
Speaker 6No, this is like Fucking knowledge.
Speaker 1No that when they're angled like this, and typically there's a fucking arrow that says go that way. So usually when someone's coming down the opposite way, I just drive in the middle Right like what are we doing? I'm going the correct way. You need to back, put it in reverse, use your backup cam. Is it usually so, or you're the asshole that?
Speaker 3Oh, that spots empty.
Speaker 4I don't have to put it in reverse. When I leave, I can. I can just go out that way Into oncoming traffic, because I don't have to back up. And Is it usually old ladies? No, it's fucking young people. Oh yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 3Like maybe middle-aged people. I have no idea. There's a system here, no they don't know.
Speaker 1Just like merging on traffic people like a zipper, they don't.
Speaker 3No, you're not coming in? Did you not learn the zipper merge technique?
Speaker 7Just let me in, because I have nowhere else to go.
Speaker 3Like. I don't know Just let me in because I have nowhere else to go. I have to go here. What do you?
Speaker 4want me to do my old boss from California he goes, he goes. We still do not understand the zipper method he goes. That's why I fucking haul ass on my bike everywhere I go and we get offended by bikers that weave in between traffic. I'm like fuck, I want to do that, so bad.
Speaker 3I do too. Oh man, that would be nice.
Speaker 4Just use that fucking right hand of the fucking road. It's called a shoulder, but fucking use it.
Speaker 3It pisses me off because every morning I have to merge on the traffic and people get so they're like looking and like going forward and I'm like I have nowhere else to fucking go, you fucking idiot.
Speaker 1Or people that can't stand that just a car is passing them. So they're driving like a fucking dipshit in the left lane and you're like you're not getting over. I guess I'll pass on the fucking right, like that's ever been a thing. And then they speed up. Yeah, they're like oh, oh, oh, I get fucking furious. Yeah, that's just that, that now you're just being an asshole.
Speaker 4I love watching that car. That fucking will weave in between. But then when it comes time to like five miles ahead, you're right there, even with them again.
Speaker 3Like you are no farther, I'm like bro you are wearing that fucking gas pedal out. Yeah, you gotta know further.
Speaker 1I've been that person a few times. Oh my god, we're just like come on One.
Speaker 4Do you ever look at? I'm just fucking the same guy that is calm, cool and fucking cool.
Speaker 1I was like I just saw you fucking three lights together and I've seen you every light now and I'm flooring. I just like to drive fast sometimes, like I just want really, if the speed limit's 40, I'm probably gonna go 45. I have people typically Like and it happens on 24th here in Normand where like the target and everything is it's 40 through there. I wanna do 45, they're doing 35.
Speaker 1Even just the speed limit is better, even just the speed limit, but yeah, I'll pass them and be like Jesus Christ. And then, ahhhh, oh fuck, what I've also done.
Speaker 7Is gotten like.
Speaker 1Trying to find something.
Speaker 7I've been.
Speaker 1I'll be driving and someone pulls out in front of me and like won't accelerate. You know like you could have just waited till I went by. Now I gotta hit my brakes Now.
Speaker 3I gotta wait.
Speaker 1You know, and I'm like fucking pissed Like you, motherfucker, fuck you. And then I'll go around and we'll hit the same light. And now I'm just looking over at them. I'm not really saying anything.

Speaker 3Yeah.
Fentanyl and Human Trafficking Dangers
Speaker 1I told Casey I want to be this guy we saw in Texas one time. We were taking kind of regular trips down to Frisco, just to kind of A little road trip. Stay at a nice embassy suite, go to Ikea, eat some barbecue. God, you're old, I know right, it's almost 50.
Speaker 3It's like a white person thing to do. Old white man. Old white man. It sounds like Will Smith on that, not Will.

Speaker 3Ferrell yeah, when he got married I don't know.
Speaker 4Bed Bath and Bed Bath and Beyond. It's a wild Saturday Wild.

Yeah, I'm old, but we went to this one barbecue place and this badass brand new vet pulled up. I was like damn, that is killer. And this like 80 year old dude gets out, just this grand paul looking just, but he's dressed kind of hip. You know, he's kind of cool. I was like I want to be that guy.

Speaker 4I do have a sweet ass job right now, so I'm a we respond like directly for the governor. So we're a. It's a civil support team, so it's supposed to be a weapons mass destruction. We're on. We're basically on 24-7 out, like 24-7 call, like we got a team right now at the OU game, so we'll we go to like the OU and OSU games.
Speaker 3So, KERDI?
Speaker 4Uh, not really. So we show up at OHP. We do like the the bomb, like the sweeps of the Entire facility Used to. They like to keep this like hush, hush. And I'm like why? I'm like you. You obviously stand out like a fucking sore thumb. You got this radiation detection device. You look like the fucking ghostbusters walking around and then you want to tell people that you're not doing anything.
Speaker 1I'm like that scares the fuck out of me. Yeah, this is normal. I think people need to know that, and transparency is key. There are people out there Really trying to keep the public safe. Yes, preventive wise.
Speaker 4Not. Hey, I'm here to respond to this, so.
Speaker 1No, I think it's great. It's kind of cool. Yeah, it is cool.
Speaker 4So I've been doing that for six years, and then Are you guys playing clothes when you do it?
Speaker 1Yeah, well, we're.
Speaker 4Yeah, I mean we look kind of like law enforcement, we kind of have like 511 Kakis on yeah and polos, but it actually it got me a. It kicked off this Non-profit that I just Maybe maybe the letters in the mail this week For being like approved but Doing a. I don't know if y'all know how bad Fentanyl is, but we're doing, we test for Fentanyl, like it. So on the I have a side gig where I'll go out to LA and Miami and Vegas to like EDC and EDM festivals and the amount of people that are overdosing on Fentanyl Fucking nuts.
Speaker 3I bet.
Speaker 4Like just last week I was out in LA, we were working. It was actually in San Bernardino we were working. It's called escape. We had it's a Halloween festival, like by Insomniac Entertainment, and Some fucking dude was Hand out Fentanyl water, like he put Fentanyl in a fucking bottle of water and these people were just OD and and you know.
Speaker 1You know what I'm okay with? I'm okay with Killing those people right there on the spot. The distributor.
Speaker 4The distributor, yeah, yeah that's putting the drugs in there Like the people going out thinking it's fucking cool.
Speaker 3Like, why do they do it? They get paid. They just think it's cool. No, I don't know the fucking madness behind that, but it's fucking nuts, like in Oklahoma.
Speaker 4The Fentanyl crisis is fucking nuts Because Arizona and Oklahoma Well, via Texas Is the worst fucking areas right now In Florida 35 corridor.
Speaker 4Yeah, like nobody understands how fucking dangerous I-35 and I-40 is, with human trafficking and Fentanyl Like human trafficking, to a point where and I don't know how, I don't give a shit about being political or not, but they went ahead and asked ICE to step out of Law enforcement in Oklahoma City. As far as they could identify a car Like pushing people, like Human trafficking Based off of how a car would bounce when it hit a bump. So if a car does Like if a car Like if the back end just stays heavy, like in drives and it never like does the bounce that a typical car does at a plot hole there's people hiding in the fucking trunk of a car. Well, it got to the point where Our police would pull them over With ICE detectives and these the ICE detectives, they work for Customers and Border Patrol and everything, and they can deport these people immediately. They got to the point where they quit doing that Because there's so fucking many of them On a daily basis they're coming through Oklahoma City being human trafficking.
Speaker 7What the?
Speaker 4fuck. So I mean it's insane right now. That's scary, yeah. And then Fentanyl like We've been on Probably 10 or 20 calls right now that have been Either officer involved, like they've pulled over a car coming from Arizona and they'll be going to like Nebraska or they'll be going to the East Coast and they'll have a backpack. That's the only thing they have on them and it's two fucking strangers in a car.
Speaker 4Oh my god, and they can't even come up with a story To keep their self straight. And then you open up a trunk and there's a fucking couple hundred or a couple hundred fucking pills in there and we test them and it's Fentanyl.
Speaker 6Yeah, and the safety of law enforcement.
Speaker 1Because sometimes they don't know what they're touching. Right, and you have officers actually touch some of this, inhale some of this shit and fucking.
Speaker 4And before we thought, hey, these, these fucking guys are touching Fentanyl and they're going down, we actually learned. I went out to Dugway it's a research lab and they were like, hey, they're like it's really fucking hard to get dermal exposure Going through your skin. They're like it's typically panic attacks, but there's still officer involved. Even here in, like Oklahoma, that's happened, where the wind will hit just right and they'll open up a powder not like, not knowing and that powder will fucking incapacitate them. Oh my god. So they have to go and like, use an arcane on them and shit. Yeah, so it's nonprofit.
Speaker 4We're doing we're trying to test for Fentanyl products At these raves and we're also trying to get into the schools and educate like high school aged kids On the use of arcane or on the use of Fentanyl and just how. It's not just in, it's not your drug dealers that's really use them, it's your kids that are wanting Adderall. Like cause, you can get this. You can buy this shit off Snapchat. Yeah, it's insane and it's what used to be like. Like, if you used to buy lore tabs and shit, they'd be like five dollars a pill. This is like a dollar a pill.
Speaker 3Oh my god.
Speaker 4So you know, there might be a lethal amount in one fucking pill.
Speaker 3Yeah, I see stories about that and like Kids that's never done drugs before and just happened to be at a party. Happened to get something handed to them like that's terrifying.
Speaker 4What's nuts is, if you start talking to people, you'll notice that somebody directly related to that person you're talking to, or somebody that's like that's a first hand Knowledge of that that they've either lost somebody Like I guarantee you, your kids have either lost a friend or no other. Like the.
Speaker 1Even just overdosing, even if they haven't died, they had to go to the hospital and get all kinds of shit done. Oh yeah, well, my son Logan is. He's big into that EDM scene and so I worry about him. But he talks about. He talks about being careful about fentanyl and just stuff like that.
Speaker 1I hope he is right. You know I can. He says he is and I hope he's a little honest about that. Like people are going to experiment, people are going to do things. I get it, whatever you're an adult. But that's why I say those people that are Are tainting products with that shit. What use for them do we have in society? That's why I'm okay with executing them like Go fucking hang them in the street. What is going to get people to stop doing that If we don't have these harsh fucking punishments and as much as many years or life in prison would suck. We think it sucks right. Like who wants to fucking live like that? These guys that are doing it and maybe gals, not only with fentanyl but sex trafficking, human trafficking, these kids, these pedophiles they got three hots in a cot, if you want to take that old expression. There's a lot of people right now in the states they don't get that. Think of some of the kids that they don't get three hot meals.
Speaker 1Maybe they don't even know where they're going to sleep that night. You know what I mean. So you have these people willing to do these heinous things to others. If there's not a serious consequence, what stops them?
Speaker 3Oh, I'm going to go and stay in jail for a while, but then they're going to kick me out because they'll be crowded. They're going to get overcrowded.
Speaker 1They're going to need space for other fucking assholes.
Speaker 4Hopefully they killed more people than me or whatever it is, you know what I mean Dude, what's nuts is between that and the trafficking it's been almost two months ago.
Speaker 4I was up in Chicago and cell phone thefts. It's a huge industry within festivals Because it's linked back to terrorism, for one. But they will go and steal cell phones and up there, the people that were actually stealing the cell phones it's so fucking nuts. They had no remorse and these were this was an EDC festival and the people that were stealing the phones they're from Guatemala and they were in their 40s. They were in there paying off their fucking debt to their fucking coyote.
Speaker 3What the hell.
Speaker 4Like seeing this firsthand was fucked up Because we couldn't find the cell phones, but we had positive identification on what they were doing and we got to talking to them and they're fucking paying off their fucking debt.
Speaker 1So they're sending that phone back.
Speaker 4All they had was a passport from Guatemala, no paperwork showing that they should be in the fucking country. And I'm like it's crazy, the shit they talk about on the news Like we're seeing firsthand here and we can't do it. It's not a. You can only get them for trespassing and what are you? But then I'm like what are we doing? Right now? We release this person. Somebody might go cut their fucking head off out in the fucking streets Because they didn't come up with the money. Or they're like, hey, you'll take a loss on this Because they might deport you. Somebody that's sitting in Chicago, any town USA gets sent back to fucking Guatemala. When they thought that man, I thought this was my future. That's why I'm like I'm so fucking split on the border. I'm like we got to get control of a fitness.
Drug Testing and Political Divisions
Speaker 4We got to get control of everything, but we have to streamline a legal process To make it where this is still a place to come, hey you know what?
Speaker 1I would be okay with fucking shutting the borders for a time, so we can figure out what the process needs to be, because we did during COVID, we shut the fucking border.
Speaker 4During COVID. Shut the border until it's like, hey, figure out what America needs to fucking stand up again, get some smart people in the room to figure it out, yes.
Speaker 1Hey, and if you're a politician that's supposed to be in charge and you're not smart enough because I don't know what the answers are? Right, there's people that have probably some good fucking ideas, all those fucking intelligent people in To help find the solution. Because we can't control Fentanyl, any other kind of narcotic Weapons, people being Kidnapped and Come through. Until we get a handle on just how do people need to come through here now? Right, you have to figure out the people problem first, because all that other shit that's a people problem, because people are bringing the drugs Right. People are fucking evil. They're kidnapping kids, women, boys and they're bringing them. It's a fucking people problem. So we gotta figure it out. And I think when you start talking border security, there's part of the population they do tend to be on the left. They don't want it. That America is this Shining beacon in the sky that says Bring me your poor. You know, I get that, but Times are a little different right now and we need better border security.
Speaker 4They say, bring them until they're brought to them and they're like, hey, I can't have these, and Martha's vineyard Not to me.
Speaker 1Bring them, but not here, not here, not my house, florida and Texas needs them all You're busing them here to DC.
Speaker 4You're not gonna have your problem. They didn't come to me.
Speaker 3It's so bad.
Speaker 4What sucks is that and this is where I got really fucking mad is. So when I was doing this and all this nonprofit stuff going, I just thought in my head I was like this is a fucking public health thing, this will fucking pass me quick. So, not knowing, I had to go through Fucking legal Because I'm testing drugs. And I started calling the people on the right Up at Congress and Senate and everything and they're like man, I'm really on board With what you're doing. We can't take this forward because you're wanting to, you're basically condoning that.
Speaker 7People are doing drugs.
Speaker 4I'm like I'm being realistic. I was like, yeah, people are fucking dying. Like this is like we go to these conferences and FBI's like, hey, this is a fucking, this is the number one killer right now. We're losing all of our youth To this right now. And then, luckily, it was somebody on the left. The minority whip here in Oklahoma was like no man, you can test that. I personally made that legal last year.
Speaker 4I was like man, fuck the left and right. Yeah, if I'm meeting you and you tell me, hey, I'm a hardcore conservative, I'm like, bro, you're not gonna see it any other way then or, hey, I'm. If you're a Trump supporter, I can talk to you. If you identify as that, I'm like man, fuck off, I'm wasting my breath. If you can't say, hey, whatever you bring to the table, I'm gonna listen. Let's talk about the issue.
Speaker 4I may not agree with the fucking thing you say, but somewhere in there Both of our ideas may actually bring us To the better solution. Right. Bipartisan shouldn't even be a Fucking word right now.
Speaker 1It's so sad, god, I had a thought when you were talking about that. Oh, about the Well your condoning drug use? How's that war on drugs going that we've dumped billions into? What has it done? Nothing, people are gonna do it. I don't care how religious you are, or maybe it's not even a A religious thing. I don't care how religious you are, it's not even a religious thing. I don't care how your conviction About not doing drugs, how deep that runs, that's you, that's you. There's ten other people over here that don't give a shit. And and it doesn't mean that those people doing those drugs are Even bad people. Maybe they're fucking hard workers and they like to tap Taiwan on Every now and again and at a festival.
Speaker 4That's when people probably want to let loose. And the people that I meet there, like you don't just have your fucking hippies that we think of as like when we think of drug dealers, we think of people living on the streets. You go to these festivals. It's fucking Like Fire, fucking fireters. You have professionals from all industries and they're like Bro, I've been doing fucking molly for 40 years. Like, hey, I know that I have the money to get my stuff Tested, or I have this, or I know that, hey, I'm taking good quality stuff. Like I'm gonna keep doing that.
Speaker 4Cause I cooked it myself and I brought it, but it's so fucking nuts man. But uh, when I look at those people I'm like you fucking believe in situational ethics, cause I guarantee you Somebody in your fucking family has either Been a drug addict, had a fucking drug issue.
Speaker 5But it's okay because.
Speaker 4Like they had a situation or hey you, that's different cause it hits home. But in public I gotta say I'm not for any fucking drugs. I'm banning all this.
Speaker 1Yeah, so like uh and um, oh, you want to test those drugs at these different events. Um, but you're condoning the drug use and, on the other hand, you you don't want us doing it because you want people to overdose Just because, just because they're using some Recreational drugs, if they got over, if they got something from somebody that was had the fentanyl in it, it's okay that they die and they deserve that, because they wanted to do some x and see some pretty lights or some shit.
Speaker 4And what's funny is, back in 2003, senator Biden Made this rave act when it was. Hey, if you're caught handing out water At a festival, you're condoning the use of Ecstasy, because you're giving out water to protect.
Speaker 5To save them.
Speaker 4And that fucking. That never passed as the rave act. It passed under the fucking. When the amber alert came out, it was just like most bills that got swept into that one and that's the biggest problem that we're fighting right now is To test these drugs. They're like fuck man, because they Promoters would get hit with like a $250,000 fine.
Speaker 3That's a lot.
Speaker 1That's so dumb and a waste of money somewhere. Somewhere there's Money wasted Running those programs and I don't even like the the bills that have Stuff that aren't even related To each other in one package. I think that should be.
Speaker 4Best to be a leader like that.
Motivational Messages and Bathroom Habits
Speaker 1We're not gonna do that, because Now both sides are playing this game of Tug of war. That Okay, I'll go ahead and vote for that If you go ahead and put this in.
Speaker 4For me that's fucking shady, and that's where we're gonna see this week, because right now we're in the Continuing resolution. This is where that shady shit happens this week, when they, when they add all that stuff into those bills, that says we can't let the government shut down. So I'm gonna go ahead and let this one slide, this time to line your pockets. It's so bad.
Speaker 1It's so bad and we all talk about it, we all get upset about it. But it also goes to what the fuck do you do? What do you do about it? Because then you learn that, oh, no matter how good or bad they are, they're all part of this Fucking club that we're not Privileged enough to be in.
Speaker 4Right, but back to when you talked about the bank account earlier. That's all fake. This whole group think mentality is all fake Because that same person that has the blue hair that's cussing out Somebody at a fucking university. I promise you, if I fucking get on Airplane with them tomorrow and I sit down next to them, we're gonna find common ground. If we're on a plane for Two and a half hours, I talk too fucking much To sit there and be quiet. Otherwise I'm gonna be snoring and you're gonna fucking hit me and be like hey, would you?
Speaker 1actually sit down and have a civil discussion, you find you have more in common Than you really really think. You know. First, we don't want the plane to crash. Hey, we can agree on that, right. I would hope you know, I hope we land safe, right, yeah, we hope the food's not bad.
Speaker 4It's going to be, but we Right and I hope your health is good and I hope that you hope that my health is good, like and you start there and you just build up, you might run into a few things that's like, hey, that's kind of touchy, I don't want to talk about that, or, but I don't know how we get back to that. Instead, just stick to this mob mentality Of hey, let's outnumber that person because Our voice is louder.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 7The squeaky as well gets to grease.
Speaker 1Yeah, my wife kind of dealt with that. Casey Sings in a Very hip and cool Barbershop course oh shit. And she's part of the Leadership team of the course and she uses this App called Remind and she was sending out Motivational Quotes. And this girl I got to give her some props because she's been using chat GPT like a mother. She can do so much with fucking this AI chat bot it would blow your fucking mind. So all these Inspirational quotes she's building Through chat GPT that gives her a schedule, gives all kinds of shit, it's brilliant. But she gets A message from another person On the leadership team. That's like Some people are having some issues With the motivational messages Whatever they were kind of griping About, I don't recall exactly, but Maybe we just stop them for now. So Casey's like Okay, but I'm going to send an email out To the entire course, that way I can let people know. This is the reason you're not seeing my messages. Just Want to let you know that maybe they were too much or you got them too often or whatever.
Speaker 4How many people are?
Speaker 1How many members? There's close to 80 In the course, and so she's now starting to get All these emails replying to her Going no I love those. No, I love those, and that was the majority of the consensus. Then the director of the course goes no, I love them. If people don't want them, they don't have to read them. Well, really, come to find out. It was a very, very Small Handful that might have griped about it. Two fucking people probably.
Speaker 3It was probably someone that.
Speaker 1Has Alterior motives that you know. Just, I don't like Casey, I don't like this or whatever. You know it can get that trivial One person to go.
Speaker 7I've heard from other people that Maybe we don't need these.
Speaker 1How bad ass would that have been, though she would have been like you know what.
Speaker 4I know it's you big. She just Sent her message Like hey, you mind taking over these motivational Speeches for a minute. She would have been like oh, fuck yeah.
Speaker 1I got this until you come back.
Speaker 4That same woman that said that I guarantee you would have fucking been like. Of course, because it's not her fucking getting and Casey's probably not doing it. More than likely, if she's sending that out, she's not doing it for recognition. But that bitch would have been like I want to get mine.
Speaker 3They were kind of I want to be the center of that.
Speaker 1They were leading up to this International competition that we went up to or went to Louisville for, and so they were motivating Speeches to be like or quotes To Keep your positive energy going, because we're going to compete In this thing.
Speaker 4We're going to be talking about Getting down on themselves.
Speaker 1Or questioning, or even it doesn't have to do with singing. Maybe you just had a really bad, fucking day In your own personal life and that message you're like hey, you know what?
Speaker 3Maybe things aren't that fucking bad.
Speaker 1Also it's hurting anyone and just like the director was saying, like if you don't have to read them, don't let those words hurt you.
Speaker 4Yeah, don't let those words hurt you. Those fucking words can be hurt.
Speaker 1I bet if it was One of your friends that were sending them out You'd be okay with it, right Cause it was your friend doing it.
Speaker 4Not somebody else who doesn't need to Hear a fucking motivational speech? Everybody needs that.
Speaker 1I don't. I just stay in a constant state of motivation, whether it's in the you know staying in bed until noon. Yeah, I'm motivated to stay in bed till noon.
Speaker 4Right. So most of us Aren't about to be fucking 50. I mean you gotta be happy about something Dude, I mean so.
Speaker 1I have to.
Speaker 3And I don't know what that is.
Speaker 1I don't know what that is. Maybe shit my pants again with the diaper on.
Speaker 4I don't know. I mean you're not quite A full circle, but I mean that's. There's still got to be a lot to look forward to.
Speaker 3I mean old people like routine.
Speaker 1I do love a routine.
Speaker 3I do Damn it.
Speaker 1I love a routine.
Speaker 3They like a good bowel movement.
Speaker 1Okay, yes, I do like a good. Who doesn't though?
Speaker 3That's true, they like good hearty dinner.
Speaker 1Um, this comedian, let me try to remember his name. He's one of my favorite and that's what sucks because I can't remember his name. But uh, he was. I was watching one of his standup bits and he goes have you ever had to shit so bad that you shit before you pee? Many times, many times.
Speaker 4That's not a scheduled shit. No, that's, that's yeah.
Speaker 1One of those farts where your butthole goes. Hey, I'm reminding you.
Speaker 3Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1Let me have some control here. I know that's. I don't think.
Speaker 3I have to go yet. And then you're like no, I gotta go now.
Speaker 4That's what's crazy with my kids. They're like and I don't know who raised them to be like this, because Courtney could sit in the back of a Tahoe and piss in a fucking 20 ounce bottle perfectly and not miss a drop, and me, I'll shit anywhere. My kids are like like hey, I really need a poop. I'm like all right, hey, I was like we're pulling up here, I'm not pooping anywhere but the house. I'm like I'm like bro, we're three days from the house Three days I'm like. We're not. We are in a hotel.
Speaker 3You're shitting in this box.
Speaker 1You're going to be very uncomfortable.
Speaker 4No, no, I'll hold it. And I'm like, oh my god, I'll fucking need you to hold it. I'm like, bro, I'm like we are not anywhere close to being home and I'm not stuff and what I'm doing Like I'm good. I'm like, bro, you were just panicking, yeah, but you're not going to go home right now, so I'm good.

He was like I don't think you're coming out of here today and I was like. I was like let's hold the fuck up. I was like I'm an American. I was like I'm not trying to be entitled, but I was invited over here to do this. And they're like, yeah, they don't understand that because they're very the dictatorship. They're like they don't care that the army is doing something.
Speaker 1Don't make mistakes. Right Like you packed your bag, why would you pack nine mil rounds?
Speaker 3Yeah, and I don't know they fell, they didn't care.
Speaker 4Dude, I'm over there for well over a month and they like I'll get interrogated like two days, two days a week, the other fucking five days I'm touring the fucking city, getting treated like a fucking king and I but I walk into a like the hotel that I had had like six different swimming pools. It was a full on resort and I start looking around Nothing's in English. I walk into a fucking straight up Turkish bath. I walk in there and these dudes are bathing each other and I was like not the one I want to be. And I walk to a fucking sauna and there's a I'm I'm like I'm not naked, but I'm like I just have my towel on. This chick comes in, takes her top off and I'm like what the fuck?
Speaker 1This is the place I want to be.
Speaker 4And it was because it was because the females was down. So they said it could be coed as long as the females was down. If the males was down, you just don't use it. It can't go right. But uh, yeah. So I said every, every nice bathroom had the little. It was just a fucking water hose, because they don't, they don't, they don't wipe their ass in the middle east.
Speaker 7So I was like I try it and I was like I was like why do I like this?
Speaker 4Why do I like this? Fucking sewer, ass, warm water. I was like I was like yeah, I was like I like this a lot.
Speaker 3They don't have any toilet paper.
Speaker 4But I think, I think I would like the cold water better. Is that cold yeah?
Speaker 3Well, you can change it, Can you?
Speaker 1That one. In that bathroom sense it was close to the sink, I could run the hot water supply over, so it will get warm. You don't really use it long enough for the water to actually get hot.
Speaker 4Yeah.
Speaker 1So you don't burn. Your lukewarm water is awkward Like, but the one in our main uh or our master suite yeah sweet. Um, it is like a wash closet, so like a little poop closet.
Speaker 7Nice. So it's a way from the sink is cold water. Yeah.
Speaker 1And people think that, oh God, that's gotta be so cold. It's pretty nice, especially when you have a hot shit.
Speaker 3Yes, oh, yes, cool off that Nice.
Speaker 1Nice, if you're drunk and you throw up, you can wrench your mouth out really.
Speaker 6You're fucking convenient why.
Speaker 3Cause I know what comes out of the buttholes.

Speaker 3I've never thought about that though. Yeah, You're flushing that in the air, aerosolizing that shit. They have done like a that's a good.

Oh yeah, they had a like a sky bridge little thing off the parking garage. So parking garage is kind of outside but just right right into the arena. It was amazing, it was great.

Speaker 4It's fun it is just fun, is it? Would you compare it like, as far as the atmosphere, to like a? You remember, like back when they had the hockey team here, and that's more fun than a fucking basketball game, because this, though, the entertainment they do for the crowd.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 4Do they do that a lot for the AEW.
Speaker 1So so they have really just the wrestling itself. You know there's not too many. Oh, we're in a commercial break, so we're gonna do, you know, like the oh yeah, do like t-shirt, cannons or something. They don't do anything like that, but but it's constant. There's so much stuff going on, yeah and before, before they started filming, they did. The ring announcer came down and he was kind of talking to the crowd and AEW is smaller than WWE, so you're is it all about those though? No, it's not even on it.
Speaker 1It's on umbrella, that's it's owned by this guy named Tony Khan. Tony Khan's dad owns like the Carolina Panthers or something, so they're a wealthy family.
Speaker 4So still a billion dollar industry, even though it doesn't.
Speaker 1Yeah, so you're, you feel pretty close to the, to the, the ring.
Speaker 1They're not so big yet that the entire arena seats will be filled. They do block off a big portion of it for production crew, cameras and stuff. They're just not WWE level yet, but they put on a show like they are. I mean it was great, we had a great time. I was on TV for like like close for a split second. I'll show a photo later. I was dressed as one of the wrestlers. I like that's an AEW and one of one of the guys that really wants to kick that guy's ass. When his music hits. He came out of like the floor insurance instead of coming down the ramp. So he was walking right by us and I was giving him a thumbs down and then, as he walked by and he got into the ring and beat the dude's ass. I look at Casey and I go. He's a lot bigger than what he looks like on TV.
Speaker 4Like only fun.
Speaker 1You don't realize how you because there's got like that guy. There's guys in AEW bigger than him. Right, he's been in the ring with some guys and he he looks like a normal size guy. No.
Speaker 1No. So, we were. You had the floor seats and we had the seats right at the wall to where kind of got the club level seats. So you're a step you know, six inches, or however big that step is. That dude was as tall as me. It seemed like and just fucking wide You're like. Oh fuck, I mean I put my thumb down in his face. He could fuck me up real quick. It was kind of funny, all right.

One time when we had the three wheeler, I had Eric sitting in front of me and we come hauling ass down the road Like top gear, just fucking On the gravel road yeah. And then our German shepherd Shiloh was crossing the road and I was like, okay, I'll just swing him behind him. Well then he's like oh, what the fuck. And he goes to shoot back over to the house and the rear you know, their balloon tires, oh yeah, hits his hip.
Speaker 1Oh shit and just fucking flips us. And me and Eric, I had enough time to like, grab them. We're just flying perfectly perpendicular to the road like this and I'm like I'm about to land on this dude. This is how long I'm in the air that all this is running through my head and I was like, oh, so I turned in midair and landed on my back and I'm sliding and I just roll him off of me and I'm still sliding. I'm like Jesus. And then our mailbox like boom, I hit the mailbox. Almost the same time I hit the mailbox, my dad pulls up.
Speaker 7Oh yeah.

Speaker 4You going outside, you know what I'm just gonna jump up here. Not only that, I want to make myself comfortable. That's what my dog does when, when the other one has to go outside, this one like tower down as close to the ground as she can get.
Speaker 1She's got a bougie butthole too.
Speaker 5She wants it perfect outside, okay continue and it also is not fair to the baby who doesn't know. So what should we do? When you first have a baby, be separate your dog and if there are gonna be interactions, make sure the dog is on leash and make sure that you have control of your dog or your partner now the baby can play with the balls. The dogs prevent any accidents because I'm sure if something happens, the dog is going to be the first one to go.
Speaker 1Poor puppies.
Speaker 6Like who does that?
Speaker 4Hey let me just go touch this buffalo.
Speaker 1Hey, let me send this 30 pound kid to go sit on this 1,000 pound seal, right or however much. The fucking seal weighs a lot, so dumb.
Speaker 5Oh, I told you it was in here, babe, page 286. Don't let your toddler ride a seal in a parking lot, I'll give me five bucks.
Speaker 3Well, probably sit around and cook some soups and eat bread and desserts and just get all fat and sassy.

Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 4Well, you already gave away how long we've been going, so I would have never even guessed that For the total time, total time will blow your mind. Let's blow it.
Speaker 1Three hours and 15 minutes. This has been bad.
Speaker 3Is this the longest podcast you've ever done. Yeah.
Speaker 4Killers of flower moons. Three hours and 30, what the fuck.
Speaker 3I took three naps. I'm tired after this.
Speaker 1We're going to go 15 more minutes, just so we can know Alright. Well, man, thanks for joining us. It was great to catch up. Hear about what you're doing now, which is what's the name of the non-profit.
Speaker 4Valor Detection Alliance, valor Detection Alliance. So we use the chat GPT, this is the stuff that I want. And then when it kicked it out Like it had the whole, hey, the valor for the military part, the detection and the alliance bringing communities together and all that. So I was like man, this is badass.
Speaker 1That's awesome. You guys got a website.
Speaker 4So that's in the process. We want to make sure that we got the 501C3 Completely approved. That way I didn't get shot down and said, hey, let's. So I want to make sure. But yeah, we've got everything in the works. Everything's in the draft phase.
Speaker 1That's great. So I worked with Veterans for Life. They're a non-profit here in Oklahoma. I was their Executive Director for a little bit.
Speaker 4Oh nice.
Speaker 1Led them through a Kind of a soft Branding re-launch, so did a. I did a new website For them, new logo, things like that. Casey was the Kind of the Secretary of the Board For a while, did a lot of good work and just she did good work in like marketing, even flyers for events and stuff like that. So we did that for a while, led them Through their re-brand, got them to a Really good Re-launch, kind of jumping off. And then we were like, okay, you guys got it from here. We're Just way too busy with other things.
Speaker 4So we need like a Mentor type Group for this, because we don't have Come on fresh out like it's hard to Like. We wanted to take like a there's a A dance safe Organization. It's been around since the 90s. They pretty much what we want to do and that's like the direction we went.
Speaker 4We were like, man, we got to find something, that who's a leader in this that we want to follow, like we don't want to recreate the wheel, but now we're at a point where Now we're looking for that, right there, we're looking for what's a mentor to get our feet off the ground Top deal. So I'll be reaching out to you. Then I didn't know that.
Speaker 1So did the. They had lost their 501c3 A few years ago Just from not understanding, or Really not understanding, how the Compliance, compliance and reporting, and you don't just get your 501c3 and then you're done, you don't have to Do anything, you have it always. You have to do things to keep that it is, it is. It's a lot. And once you get it, though, it does Open up quite a few Doors. When you finally get your 501c3 letter that, hey, you're fucking Good to go, you can start taking Donations and people can Can you know, file that On taxes later in the year, just Keeping up with your financial Information and making sure you're Um Submitting all that? Uh, because you still have to file. I don't remember what they call it 990 or something.
Speaker 4That's the fear that I'm at now. I'm like man. Now I'm taking All these physically responsible Classes and I'm like, fuck man, don't let Stratford come out In me. But being as the president, I'm like man. We gotta have an executive director. I was like we Just you can't glorify him being a founder Of a deal. It's not for that. So it's like, hey, what can I do? Here's my purpose. Now let's Send it off to people that can.
Speaker 1Yeah, you'll want to get. You'll want to get a board, oh yeah.
Speaker 4That's why I went medical, like I went A total diverse way, in that I was like man, we can't, we can't all think the same. If we All think the same, we're gonna fail. So I had to get a medical director involved, like making sure that we had a Treasure that knew money, that, and then a secretary that was like, hey, your, your job is the minutes and keeping us in.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, no, that's great, you get all that. You get all that on paper and that's what's good to Take to some of these Investors. These Don't really want to call them investors, but Companies, private companies, sponsors, contributors yeah, yes, because they'll. They'll want to look at One thing that will keep you From going to the hospital, because a lot of those companies Get those Non-profit packets.
Speaker 1You know that those bylaws and everything and the Having your bylaws in order, your kind of your chain of command, your board, all that together, even a business plan. You have all that Nice and neat and a nice packet. You can present them. It may move yours Above others that Don't have those things.
Speaker 7Because it just looks more legit.
Speaker 1And you're putting in the work and you want to Be legit, right, not that you look, but you're not legit.
Speaker 4But and going the public health route, like we're going to be seeking a lot of government Grants. So we're Reaching out to DA's, we're reaching out to the County health directors To kind of help us on that end.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 4It's good work, because it's way too much to try to do on your own.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's good work. I like that, yeah. Yeah, if you run into something and I might have gone through it when we did the Re-launch. There's also some other resources Even that the state has. I know the founder of veterans For life was meeting Uh Up I don't know if it was up At the capitol or someone near the capitol when there was a. There was like a non-profit Resource center Somewhere here in the city.
Speaker 4Yeah, there is. And then what's crazy Is there's only 20 Roughly 2200 nonprofits in the state, and you'd think with all the churches We'd have more than that. But there's not that many nonprofits In the state Me. I knew I couldn't do it on my own, so I just forked over the. I forgot how much I paid To an attorney and I was like, hey, it's better off, I put this in your hands and gave him the Bylaws and he's Blessed off on everything legally and he's made all the changes that need to be made.
Speaker 1Yeah, what was I gonna say? I don't remember. Man, I've been doing that. My brain works Over time.
Speaker 3You're almost 50 though.
