Peak Male Performance. totally unbelievable. This is a very 30 year old with

Murph: 2:01

the joints of 50 year olds. That is peak athletic performance right there.

Zac Saleski: 2:05

Doesn't matter how old you get every every guy even in their 30s or 60s. Just gotta whenever they get up out of a chair. It's always making some sort of noise.

Murph: 2:13

Oh my gosh, yeah. It's actually kind of fun. I enjoy it. I feel like it's you know, it's a little treat for myself getting out.

Zac Saleski: 2:20

My knees, my knees. Came out of your mouth.

Murph: 2:25

No. Is it my knees? My knees. Magical. It's fine.

Zac Saleski: 2:29

This is a special I mean, it was last time we did the St. Patrick's Day. Yep, podcast. Now Murph is back into town. I am he don't shoot the messenger. But you know what we are you

Murph: 2:41

can whatever you could probably should. But yeah, maybe. Okay. But anyway, thanks.

Zac Saleski: 2:47

But as always, Murph, what happened?

Murph: 2:50

Because it happened. A lot has happened. A lot has happened in two weeks. Because,

Zac Saleski: 2:55

right, actually, probably right after we did this murse brother got schmuck. Edie schmuck. He did.

Murph: 3:01

Yeah, don't come back. Got him. Yeah, he is good. Now, I actually want to thank those that actually reached out to me via social media with their condolences. It was very nice to them. So I really appreciate that. I was very lucky. And I'm very blessed in life to have friends and family that were really quick to text and ask questions about them and stuff like that. And I think for those that are always nervous, it never hurts to send that stuff. Like people really love and care about that stuff. Especially he was stretchered off, which was very nerve wracking in the beginning. The good news is, like it doesn't really need to knock on Well, it's called kind of done now. It was just concussion. Unfortunately, it was a second in three months. Oh, yeah. He he said though, he felt like a lot better after this one than the first one. So like literally the next day he was like called me and we were like talking for a bit and so he is now on long term IR so I'm not sure what that relates to in like soccer or football or whatever people watch for but basically yeah, for it's like a cap thing, where it means you will not be playing for a few weeks sometimes or just a few games. Yeah, yeah. So not sure if he's gonna sell the rest of the season, Blackhawks will not be making the playoffs even though mathematically they could but it's probably not going to happen. It's one of those things where it's a tough call to make because I'm sure you know, like, it's weird to explain professional sports. They are weirdly some teams can be very weirdly. What's that? What's that word? I'm looking for like about good luck and bad luck, like hocus pocus kind of thing. What's that fancy word? You know talking about voodoo. Yeah, yes, you do. Yes. Witch Doctors everywhere. No superstitious so yeah, so like if a team is doing well and you're out of the lineup, like there have guys that have never come back because of that. Luckily right now the Blackhawks aren't doing amazing with him out of the lineup, so it looks good. But he's done such a great job. He has such a good career that I don't think him taking the rest of the season off would hurt him By it's his call it'd be nice to just jobs and careers, got to make calls and take risks and he's just what he's gonna have to figure out what he's going to do.

Zac Saleski: 5:07

I got roasted on Discord because, like I posted that like what happened to Connor because I was like, Oh crap, that's nuts. And then I, after all that stuff, I think Tyler sent it to me because I was busy with my nephew that night and I was like, oh crap and watch the whole thing and send everybody a no and then put in the discord for all of our listeners. I was like, Well, I'm just I'm happy. It's a concussion and not a broken neck. Yeah, because when you ever get stretchered off like It's like your brain and really goes the worst. And of course, the Germans are like, well, concussions about betta, like, I know, but, but when you get stretchered off, you think it's like a neck or some sort of cervical issue? Oh,

Murph: 5:45

yeah, I was like, I shouldn't. Yeah, shouldn't laugh. But we unfortunately here in the US, we've all been through our fair share of concussions. So it's not fun. It's not good for the brain. We know the bad impact, but like, unfortunately, in America, we're all stupid. We're our balls are bigger than our brains are just like, Yeah, fucking play through the concussion. It's fine. It's so yeah, so don't be like, oh, yeah, like literally, like I untypical, and I know, this is gonna get some boos score, probably. But in typical Murphy fashion, we tend to like to make light of like, hard, dark stuff, just like as a joke. And I was hanging out with my girlfriend at the time. And like it happened, and I looked at her, I was like, would you still love me if it wasn't living in this house? And we had to sell it to support? Because he might never walk again. And she was just like, don't joke about that. And I'll answer it, too. All right. No, luckily, when I saw when I saw him move and give thumbs up, like I kind of knew, and unfortunately, that's my way of getting through awkward situations or really bad situations. Sometimes they get really bad joke. thing, though, I think it's kind of a Canadian thing. Like, you know, they don't take things too seriously. Like you take it seriously, but like, to a certain point, but he literally was even texting us in the locker room, like, Oh, good, like, yeah, like 30 minutes after was us even saying that he got up and left the training room. So he's walking around, too, because he just couldn't sit in there. Like, you know, just how to move around a little bit. So yeah, he's, unfortunately he is no stranger to injuries. So he's true. He's, unfortunately kind of become a pro with injuries. He's had knee problem. You had a back problem that turned out to be a muscle that's wrapped around his spine that like, oh, it's like early days. Yeah, that was like 16. Like, yeah, just like crazy stuff like that. So He is no stranger to injuries, loss of spleen during a game, like just all this crazy stuff. So yeah, but no, it was. It was really great. It was very fortunate. I want to thank all those that reached out and all those that wished him you know, best of luck with what the when they saw it. It really meant a lot. So I really appreciate that pronoun. But yeah, right. Exactly. Bro. Seriously. He's doing well now. He actually also just had a birthday after that. So when the Yeah, so yeah, march 25. No, 26 Sorry. I know. I'm bad with dates, I think a lot of pucks to the head. So yeah, he turned 29. So my mom got to go up. And he got to do something rare and celebrate his birthday with my mom and my sister. I couldn't make it up there. But yeah, usually he's on the road or playing a game. So you don't always get to celebrate his birthday. So we got to do that. And he's doing good, though. He's doing good now. So just resting and training and all that fun stuff. On. Yeah, real right. Yeah. So Well,

Zac Saleski: 8:26

that's the quick rundown of Yeah, Connors head.

Murph: 8:29

Right. Exactly. So to be determined if he'll take the rest of the season off. Not sure. I think he's just taking it day by day seeing what the doctors say. But luckily, as your discord mentioned, they are taking concussions so much more serious. Oh, yeah, I'm sure they will pretty much talent like there's no need to rush. Like don't worry about it. Like take your time.

Zac Saleski: 8:47

It's it's a different it's a different mentality over there. Because it's, I mean, God, I mean, do they treat everything so differently there? I mean, even if you get, you know, bloody nose or something, it's like, oh, coach, we give you we give antibiotics or if you get like a sore. Like, if you have like a swollen foot. That's what they do. It's like, coach we give antibiotics. No ice. No, yeah, no. Oh, yeah.

Murph: 9:09

So kid, you know, I used to joke with Zach about like how NFL players like would stop playing for turf toe. And I'm like, What the fuck? Like, whatever but he's like, No, that's serious is like it hurts. I'm like, Oh, okay. I will give credit to the European mentality. Obviously, you only have one body unless you believe in reincarnation, but at least you have one body body in this life. So it is important to take care of it. But unfortunately athletes it's not how it works. Um, you know, that's either making money it's it's it

Zac Saleski: 9:36

was fascinating over there because there was a hockey team not too far from where I was. And it was so unique because how they treat like a girl that that helped out with us. She was helping out with the hockey team, because obviously she's Canadian. So you're gonna slip out

Murph: 9:50

of local hockey? Oh, yeah, you're gonna find that we just have calling cards. It's fine. Oh, you're Canadian. Exactly where you go. You just know where the nearest rink is. You know where the Canadians are. It's fine. I I

Zac Saleski: 10:00

always always joke to her because she was coming to a room and be like, Hey, you, you've had head injuries in the past I was playing football. I was like, Yeah, but can I do some tests on your head and like, walk out come back in

Murph: 10:13

a little bit. I need to like, you know, yeah.

Zac Saleski: 10:15

Let's get further down. Yeah, you know, before you start asking about, you know, brain samples, like Dale.

Murph: 10:23

Yeah, just get a little bit of foreplay.

Zac Saleski: 10:26

Just take a scalpel and your nose and grab out some brain matters.

Murph: 10:31

Oh, geez. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Zac Saleski: 10:34

It was just it's fascinating out there because Germany like they just treat things so much different than than here and I don't know. I think the US more so like, Oh, you're I mean,

Murph: 10:43

Don't be a pussy.

Zac Saleski: 10:45

That kind of leans in a little bit. Canada like that, too.

Murph: 10:48

Like, yeah, it's just like, Yeah, it's like

Zac Saleski: 10:50

your finger. Alright, shut

Murph: 10:52

up. Seriously? Yeah, it's that tough mentality. Yeah. But like they even the Scandinavian countries are pretty good about that. Now, like, I've seen a lot of stuff like the loss. Yeah, no, well, like Robin laner. He's Swedish. And yeah, he's very big on I think II turn number. He's got something really bad where it's like, almost like bipolar. I don't know. I think he's been I think it was finally diagnosed but Oh, yeah. And so he's very outspoken about it. He's really good about it. But I gotta give credit to the europei outspoken about everything are true. Yes. Yeah, not sure when the guy things even worse, but ya know, but it'd be he's done a lot for the goalie community. His goalies are real messed up in the head. I'll be one admit that. So it's like yeah, it's helped out a lot. SNL sketch right there. Oh my gosh, yeah. Don't touch that. But Robin laner. Oh, yeah. He plays.

Zac Saleski: 11:43

He's been big on the whole thing. He's been instrumental and headed injuries this whole time. Oh, yeah. No,

Murph: 11:49

I don't know about head injuries. I don't say that. But no. Bipolar. So it's like, yeah,

Zac Saleski: 11:54

this is what he has to say. Like the cut to him like mid ice.

Murph: 11:59

Oh, he mostly takes a Twitter. Mostly Twitter will do that to you. Yeah, Twitter, mostly Twitter. A lot of our people on Twitter. It's fine. Just white noise on Twitter.

Zac Saleski: 12:10

Keep hitting the puck as hard as we can. But he doesn't feel anything.

Murph: 12:14

Oh, man. But yeah, that's yeah, that's

Zac Saleski: 12:17

the ice is my therapy.

Murph: 12:21

Geez, sorry. No, don't apologize. That's fine. We'll give you a tour and Canadian Army now. Sorry. What does that sorry, there are?

Zac Saleski: 12:29

I tell you, tell you what,

Murph: 12:31

man rubbing off on you more and more. giggity.

Zac Saleski: 12:35

Oh, thank you. Yeah.

Murph: 12:37

You want it? Geez.

Zac Saleski: 12:41

Well, what a ridiculous crazy week. Why don't just getting me it's been a few weeks since the last podcast. Great. To see what happens. I've been busy. For those. You guys follow the Patreon. I've been busy with the store that I work at and trying to get that out of your career. Yep. You're at all. And then I've had some interests in the last couple of weeks with coaching and then a whole thing. The whole thing Russia, Jesus. Oh, I can't. Now now they're sitting there. I try not to get too. I don't like to delve too far to politics, just like on this stuff. But it's just it's ridiculous. Because, you know, there's things you want to do you know? What? No, there's things you want to see. off camera usually? Oh, yeah.

Murph: 13:30

I'm gonna say should I tell them the quick story real quick before we get into this? Oh, yeah. Don't tell me. Oh, gosh, the one with my parents pretty much have hated you since then. No, they don't hate you. It's just very, very combative.

Zac Saleski: 13:43

It was fun, though. I was fun. Yeah, I'd love for that. Yeah. But no, it's, um, like, I'm looking for opportunities. And then next, you know, it's, you know, obviously, I'm busy with the store stuff. And that's been great. But, you know, obviously, keep your eye on all these other opportunities that start to pop open and whatnot. But then you got Russia sitting there. And just like, you know what we might go into Poland to? I was like, huh, Germany is right next to Poland. That's fun. It'll be fun. I doubt they'll go that far. But, I mean, yeah.

Murph: 14:12

I mean, Putin did say he wants to return to the Cold War status. So I mean, they had half of Germany sitting here Yeah, I mean, that would I feel like Germany is very prepared that that would if Russia struggled with Ukraine. I can't even imagine what Germany but yeah, that Oh, geez. That German might push them back. It would just be like, okay,

Zac Saleski: 14:31

she's I didn't know these guys personally. But there was already a couple guys that actually played for like local American football teams in Ukraine who who died in action. Oh, geez. So it's like it's these these guys are like joined by Yeah, it's like their early early 20s. Here like Jesus there to kind of put some perspective a little bit so I'm like, I'm like man. You know

Murph: 14:50

what though? In all fairness, we're very lucky to be over here and like have the borders we have to like not have to see what that kind of stuff. But you also have to think about though, like the amount of gun stuff we have here in the US and even a little bit in Canada, like people would defend tooth and nail so it's just like yeah, like we're we're lucky we don't have to make those decisions like that. But like and

Zac Saleski: 15:10

if you get a seven foot moose, oh my gosh. Yeah,

Murph: 15:12

I mean, I'm sure those moose, moose, the deer they all you know, bears. Yeah, we gotta we gotta be fine. And I'd love to Grizzlies go too far north, we'd start bringing polar bears down like it's fine. We didn't have lunch at night. It's always Mother Nature. Yeah, it's fine. It's like Narnia up there. Line which in the wardrobe up there we go. Welcome to South Park. I don't know It's

Zac Saleski: 15:39

your dad's explained Treehouse platform.

Murph: 15:41

Oh my gosh. Yeah. Well, you're gonna weaponize it already? Yeah, smoking weed and weapons. He's gonna

Zac Saleski: 15:47

know that order. Right. It's gonna happen when we can find a narwhal. And we're all screwed.

Murph: 15:53

I'm sure. I'm sure they're already up there.

Zac Saleski: 15:55

We're all screwed our walls Jesus weaponizing. Northstar, what

Murph: 16:00

do you think our Navy is?

Zac Saleski: 16:03

Or the Russians will bother to come over? Yeah,

Murph: 16:05

exactly. Like, you know, we'll just ramble with narwhals.

Zac Saleski: 16:08

They have a line of novel Yeah, yeah, it's like the real translate that again, narwhal?

Murph: 16:13

It's like the Roman and Greek battleships who just go to ramming speed and RAM Endo. It's like so that's why you're not getting football jobs because they're worried Russia my stupid dating?

Zac Saleski: 16:25

No, like I'm getting insurance. I think there's there's a it's weird, because like, you got the USFL now people are getting drafted. Oh, yeah, I've heard about that. Yeah, so now some people just don't want to go overseas too, because I think inflation overseas or just through

Murph: 16:38

the rare Well, inflation everywhere is through the roof right now. Yeah, well, it's it's really

Zac Saleski: 16:41

bad in Central Europe and Oh, gotcha. So people and then like I said, Russia's knock on the door to Poland. So if you're like, not not doing this, right, so it's fair. It's I can't blame people I know a lot of guys who purposely just stay or staying home this year. It's kind of crazy to think about because you kind of you go overseas with like a batch of guys and you kind of get to know him through social media and then you meet them to go to one their games and then you start becoming friends and then you kind of think it's almost like you're in like the same class like in high school. Yeah. And then small world Yeah, it's very small.

Murph: 17:13

We call it small world. Yeah. After all, yes. Right. Exactly. No, yeah, it's like hockey players. Small world. Yes. After all, yes, I have draw. Yes.

Zac Saleski: 17:22

So you just you kind of have that that that brotherhood type of mentality. So it's kind of crazy because whenever recruiting season comes around, you're like, Hey, man, where are you going? I don't know where you going? She I don't know.

Murph: 17:36

Oh, the NBA All of a sudden was stalking this guy here it

Zac Saleski: 17:40

happened actually. Okay, yeah, that's hilarious. Not very often but it can happen okay, you get one one coach one quarterback and like make a couple calls.

Unknown: 17:50

That's fair. That's fair.

Zac Saleski: 17:51

That's you know you got Judy on and Karl towns on the same team.

Murph: 17:55

Yeah, that's a power duel right there. High. High quality fades on the high oh my gosh, yeah. Yeah, just the courtside stuff is just It's magical.

Zac Saleski: 18:05

Me Murph. We love watching your YouTube Yes. The CRINGE

Murph: 18:09

CRINGE. Yeah, the cringe. I can barely watch you cringe de la creme. The courage, the courage. So it was not our podcast was created. There's more cringe out there.

Zac Saleski: 18:18

So MERV ended us. So Murphy ended up going to Vegas this year. Interesting for work for work.

Murph: 18:24

Yes. And so I

Zac Saleski: 18:26

actually luckily Connors alright, because yeah, you know, he's gonna have

Murph: 18:29

fun in Vegas. Yes.

Zac Saleski: 18:31

Well, you gotta. You gotta go. hochiminh in Vegas. Nice game. Yeah. The whole thing happened. Yeah,

Murph: 18:37

so it's like, the weird. Yeah, it's the weird part about my family luck is we tried to plan and most people it's like, we can make plans because we're adults. And we have jobs and says what we have to do the

Zac Saleski: 18:46

first time or not the first time has happened where you plan something really gets injured.

Murph: 18:50

Yeah. And then yeah, or some or get sick or my dad like, I just yeah, it's, it's all that stuff happens. Or unfortunately, before COVID We were in Canada see my family and then COVID happened. We had to, like flee across the border. Like it was. It was bad. Wild. Yeah. Right. So yeah, just always have my family works as we can never really plan until a week maybe even two before. So yeah, so I was gonna be in Vegas for work. I took vacation and I got a hotel. My girlfriend was gonna fly out and we're like, okay, cool. Well, like hanging out in Vegas, and the Blackhawks playing the gold knights on Saturday, which was, I think, the same day as my brother's birthday. So it was just like, or the day after, and I was like, Cool. So like, we'll see him and like, I'll spend the day with them. And

Zac Saleski: 19:34

like all that kind of was he in Chicago then because he I know you said

Murph: 19:36

he like he flew back. Now he's in Ottawa when he has a concussion.

Zac Saleski: 19:39

Or do you fly back from Ottawa or? Chicago?

Murph: 19:43

He flew. So yeah, so they, so it happened like a week or two before I went to Vegas, though, that concussion they were they went back to Chicago stage Cago bid. And then they did a little west coast swing where they played like, three games and four days or three games five days or something. Yeah. So they were in there in LA and Anaheim, I think Then they went to Vegas and they went home. So yeah, I was out for Vegas for work. And so of course this happens. I'm thinking, it's just my luck. Like, you know, while like, I even told my brother I'm like, Don't worry about me going to the game like it's fine but I will say if you ever have a chance to go to a Vegas Golden Knights game, take it like even my dad who's pretty close to a 30 year NHL veteran and my brother who's like a six year vet, NHL veteran. We're like, you got to go to a Vegas game. It's like, it's like I don't even know how to explain the interview. It's like all perfect. Like it's crazy. Like it's, it's not cringe and it's not like, Okay, this is like a wild idiom festival. Oh my gosh, it was. Yeah, it's funny. You said that because yeah, it was like, literally. Yeah, literally. So yeah, the way most rinks are built is you know, you have the rink and you have the stadium. And then you have like a little outside concourse, we get food and beer and bathroom breaks and all that stuff. So it's like, they build the outside of the rink. And then they build like another intersection. And that's where the rink is seats. And so literally, we're walking around the concourse via my girlfriend just checking out the rink. I kid you not every 20 yards DJs just DJs It was insane. Like just yet. Yeah, it's playing music in the concourse. And you know, they're far enough away that it was like, you know, you'd have maybe a moment of silence and then you hit another DJ. And it was just Yeah, they were just weird em, and it was like, weird. And then obviously, DJ Oh, seriously? Yes, that's giggy but yes. Someone's DJ. Yeah, exactly. But yeah, it was really interesting. And then like, I have to post it on social I don't think I did oh, no, but do it before the game they always do like this huge like it we call it almost like a medieval times kind of thing. Where like the night like they have this like, thing put up where it's like Game of Thrones, but not Game of Thrones of like, you know, the enemy team is this dark knight thing and the Golden Knights there to battle them. And they always bring it on the ice. And they like project on the ice, like all this stuff. And it's like, it's pretty cool. It's all really cool the way it's done. It was a really cool experience. And then you know, Blackhawks went up early, which was awesome. Blackhawks went up like three zip going into the third guy sitting next to me, like all that, like, you know, like, I don't know, I just, I must have a friendly demeanor because everyone wants to talk to me. It's like a weird thing. And the guys just talking to me and he was just like, found out. He's from Detroit. And he's more of a truth in found out from Ohio. Actually, remind me I'll go back to that. There was a really funny part with that. Oh, and your brothers on the team or No, no, I did. Okay. I try not to steal that stuff. Because that's not my achievement. That's his like, I know, I don't want that kind of fame. Even though I'm whoring myself out for the podcast, but it's fine.

Zac Saleski: 22:43

Hey, how are you? I'm I'm Dale's like, no, yeah, if I get brothers on the team, Oh, great. I didn't ask you

Murph: 22:50

to sign I'm either comfortable with you. Or I've made some sort of connection. Like I'll bring it up. But I mean, Zack knows he's seen it like I looked it up. And then yeah, like, don't, if I find out they're really good hockey fan, like, I'll test them a way to test them. Or if I'm just comfortable someone, but in the past, you bring it up early, and people then all of a sudden, like, will demand things from you. And you're just kind of like, no, like, you know, no. So I also didn't want to be one of those weird people. That's like, I have nothing else going on in my life besides a really famous brother and dad. And that's it. Yeah, but anyway, we were like, so they're up three zip. And the whole time I'm like, I'm cautiously optimistic because I kept saying, I'm like, Vegas is a really good hockey team. Yeah, Vegas scores, three goals. And the third, go to overtime, Blackhawks wins and overtime, which was like, wow, that sucks. But it's a hell of a game. Oh, yeah. But Vegas right now is battling for a playoff spot. So like they're like, Yeah, but it was a it was a really cool and intense game. And it was as much as it's, well. I shouldn't say that. As much as it was the word. It was cool. Seeing them score and seeing how the valium just like erupted and how crazy people were deep deep down. I was kind of happy they lost because again, it's just like, oh, Connor is not playing. They're letting up goals. The defense needs a little bit of help. Ah, oh, yeah. So there's a little bit of Yeah, so unfortunately, there's a little bit of that side. I'm sure people will be like, oh, you should be offered the Blackhawks no matter what. And it's just like, No, when you've got family at stake, you support a family over the teams, especially when you know at any given moment, the Blackhawks can be sick of him and trade them show you just learned unfortunately, that's what everyone asks. They're always like, so what's your team? And I'm like, that's, it's a curse, but it's a blessing that I know under my dad and my brothers that exactly, but I really get to enjoy the game and I get too caught up in the team's histories and I really just get to be a fan of all of it. Instead of just being like, I'm gonna die hard Blue Jackets fan go Ohio, fuck everywhere else and it's just like, no, like, I enjoy everywhere and you know, one of the Ohio twelves I live there. I'm all Yeah, exactly. Yes. Bring back Atlanta Thrashers. not awful. But speaking of which, I'll go back for the area. So the guy said guys like oh, your football Ohio. And he went, Oh, ah, and I looked at him and I was like, I don't do that. It's also for those that don't know Aaron hochkar Yeah, so it's a big Ohio state champ anytime and he's someone yells Oh, ah, you're supposed to finish IO. And that's literally the chair. So anytime you hear, because Ohio State's so big in Ohio, anytime someone finds out, you're from Ohio, they'll always say, Oh, Ah, you can go every time to Florida to Europe to anything like that. And you will like find it Ohio State person because it's such a big school and someone's gone there. And so that's the big thing is they'll say, oh, ah, and someone has to they usually have to say I do. But I don't. And my girlfriend briefly went there and she just like looked at me and she's like, You're crazy. And I'm like, No, I'm not giving into it. I'm not going to promote this a good like, you know, Columbus has gotten a lot more of the things going on for itself got in

Zac Saleski: 25:46

trouble High School, because someone did that because the premises all right in high school, Murph members is every like this is during the season. Never like was it Friday? Yeah, like Fridays, whatever it is like,

Murph: 25:57

Oh, I before in Ohio State football. It was oh, every Friday.

Zac Saleski: 26:00

We thought it was for the high school team. But our principal the time was really good friends with Jim Tressel. Yep, though, Ohio State head coach. So they would play like all the old like, band songs, stuff like that. And it's always been like the Friday before the games on the weekend. And I think there's a Michigan we we

Murph: 26:18

always beat Michigan week they bring in the Ohio State band. Yeah.

Zac Saleski: 26:21

Where the Greenville house. Yeah, usually is just a freshman. Yeah, just to kind of get or Mr. Lee. Oh, yeah. Our teacher.

Murph: 26:27

Yeah. He was in it. I think so he like will play with them, too. It was weird.

Zac Saleski: 26:31

It the whole thing was we I remember. Now I then, you know, really grew up here. I never never really liked Ohio State. So I remember I just so tired of everything. I just I was just like, I'm done. And everyone's all Channing Oh, wait, shadow. It finally. A couple of you like, oh, he looked right at me. I'm like, fu like, How dare you? Yeah, this is this is a sacred ground. Yeah, I got to travel by a teacher to do that. I was like, I'm so tired of this crap, man. Well, it sounds like you're a Debbie Downer. Like, No, I'm just not a fan. Leave me alone.

Murph: 27:04

Oh, yeah. It's the big chat. It's you know, and you gotta give him credit. It's a catchy chant in a way that like, it's so easy for everyone to get involved with. But it's like,

Zac Saleski: 27:13

still calls on carousel. So CrossFit. Yeah, it's cool.

Murph: 27:18

I guess. And you know, we were briefly a call podcast for a while we were. Yeah. So we branching out. We are we are we are. We're growing. We're growing.

Zac Saleski: 27:26

I'm personal girls podcast. With Tyler. Yes, friend.

Murph: 27:31

Yeah, I thought you started this podcast. I don't know how I've just dominated it. Tyler and I like it. You're calling me by my first name. It's very interesting. Tyler, okay. Tyler, was my favorite part,

Zac Saleski: 27:41

depending on how like, certain episodes go. The funniest part is always when people give their like their comments on people. It's like, Oh, don't listen to college talks the whole time. I'm like, wait, though, I chime in. Now tell like, that's usually like when we don't do a podcast for two weeks. And Tyler has to catch up. And he's like, trying to figure out what he what he's done because we don't tell each other before the podcast. Because we want raw

Murph: 28:04

we want raw emotion raw versus like, oh shit, or we want that raw just theater. The theater is the theater. That's high school music that is yes. We're all in this together. Remember that? Shoot the outside. Right. Great. Okay, though, so I do know and people are tired of listening to me talk. But I do have to also say another weird thing that happened to me all Vegas was I got weirdly lucky at everything else. But gambling. It was like the weirdest thing. Okay, it was the weirdest thing. Even my girlfriend was like, you must have a horseshoe up your ass because this is so literally so yeah, I don't know anybody. Seriously. So the first night we got there, I got I got there early. So I had to work from Sunday to Tuesday. And then we had a work event on Wednesday where it was like just my team having fun and drinking nachos anyway. Oh, was it the thing that that is a conference Yeah, that all managers go to so I had to sit there with like an earpiece, and I looked like this tough security guard. But basically it was like just there to make sure people didn't do anything stupid. Because it's Vegas. And so you're auditing in Vegas? Exactly. Yeah, I was Oh yeah, I was auditing Yeah, yeah. So I think it was first night I had to work like I saw I pulled them all nighter thinking like okay, I'll pull them all nighter to get my body clock like caught up to Vegas. Pull them all nighter get there my boss happy working the whole night shift first shift so my great 48 hours only got three hours of sleep. Yeah, which Zack knows. I think I have some sort of sleep apnea or something because like when I don't get sleep I will fall asleep in public like I literally will like I could like be talking to you guys right now and I will fall asleep if I'm tired enough like it's bad my favorites

Zac Saleski: 29:44

when he like slowly nods off? Yeah, I'll have a conversation. Yeah, they'll do that. Then you start like to start feeding in random crap. Yeah, the thing is pretty interesting. Oh, crap. People are just walking off the beach. And they're they're becoming part of society.

Murph: 29:57

Yeah, and well, like he was all jokes awake. So take Intel so we'll be talking, it's gonna be and there's just got to go like that. So yeah, I was doing that the whole plane right I felt actually accidentally elbowed the woman next to me awful about the company too. So I was like, oh, like elbowed her in the gut I was like I'm sorry mg uses like it's fine and like oh my gosh, anyway, I just had like a hockey flashback.

Zac Saleski: 30:21

Overseas, right?

Murph: 30:22

Yeah. Seriously, seriously? Yeah. So the second night we were there and my co workers were like, you know, one of them had to stay up late. So we just stayed up late with her for a little bit. And we went to the bar. And we went to so there was like this. I don't know how to explain it in Vegas and the casinos and stuff. Yeah, right. Exactly. The story doesn't. So there's like nice bars where you go, but then there's like these like sidebars, we can stay in play like virtual blackjack or things like that. And you can get drinks and stuff. And that's where the hookers would sit and prostitute themselves out and all that kind of stuff. Why don't we call them women of the night? That's like, it's the preferred professional term. We'll call them street walkers. Seriously. Yeah, you're right. Yes. street walkers, Red Light District walkers. Yes. There you go, man. Yeah. So we went there. And we decided to get a drink. And there's this guy there. And he was just blackout was drunk, just talking to all these people. And you could tell these girls were like kind of getting next to him thinking he'd be like an easy score. It was just bad. And so we're standing there getting a drink, and he notices my earpiece. And he's like, oh, and we were also wearing these buttons that had like Chipotle logo with a shield around it for like protection, you know, showing that we were like security. And so he's like, Oh, he worked at your polling on and I was like, Yeah, and he's like, and then I swore he said he did it work there. My co workers told me he didn't but I guess he said he did something Interpol. I don't know. And he just hammered. And so he's like, oh, you know, like, let me get you a drink. And Zach's about this so Canadian of your MERV, I don't like to be rude to people, because you just never know what's going to come back. But what I'll do to show them that they need to stop talking to me is I will kind of give short answers and kind of show them that I'm not interested. Like, I just won't contribute much to the conversation. And so I was like, he's a cafe drinker. But nom, I'm working. I'm not drinking, as my friend is ordering his drinks my co worker, and and he's still talking to me. And he's like, closed. He's talking to me. And I'm just like, and I'm like, Whoa, yeah. Okay. Yeah, like stuff like that. And I'm just not contributing, just kind of agreeing with them. And then my coworker gets our drinks. And he's like, oh, and he like looked at the bar. Things like put those on my tab. And my co Tuco mitoku worker co workers are female. So you know, completely understandable. They're like, No, no, no, no, like, no, no, no, no. And they were like, yeah, like, no, no, don't worry about it, man. Like I told you, no. And he's like, and the bartender looked at, he's just like, Oh, my God, he's like, Don't worry, it's already happened. And they're like, oh, so I joke with my co workers are from like, Don't worry, guys. I got us free drinks talking to that guy. And they're like, shut up, Tyler. Like no matter for all of us. Like, don't worry about it. And I was like, All right, whatever. So I joke about my boss the next day. So the next day, we were working, and we did another I think we went to dinner. And we were sitting there. And I think I like I was talking with someone. And they were just like, Oh, I got this beer. Do you want it? And I was like, Sure. Day to another free drink. And I was just like, Look at this guys. And they're like, Okay, this is weird. And so I was just hoping you were Yeah, I was like, you know, hey, you know, no, didn't hit on me didn't get my number. Nothing like that. Just now is it? Yeah. So then Wednesday, which was really cool. And I highly probably higher

Zac Saleski: 33:31

up. He's like, this isn't what you don't do. Right? Probably conferences. Yeah,

Murph: 33:35

it was I always roofie now just fell to the floor immediately after that. No, it was that was fine. You know, as well still play. I'm fine. It's good to be ready to go. So yeah, so then Wednesday, really cool thing I'd recommend anyone do if you ever find it. My boss found this really cool gambling spot where you can go and you pay for like a few hours. And they'll teach you how to like gamble and the strategy. So you learn how to play like craps. I learned to play Marshawn because I wanted to try that. Which was really cool. But so we played craps. And so to play craps, you have to roll dice. Obviously, I was the only one at the table to go like I went hot. And I went like nine rounds where everyone else only went like three. So like that. So I technically won a lot of people money table, which was really weird. I mean, it was just like fake money. But I want us a lot of money to table which

Unknown: 34:27

was one time right where you don't make money. Exactly. Exactly.

Murph: 34:31

And then well that was it. We went to the we went to the bar that night to in the hotel, and my boss got us free drinks while we were at the bar. Yeah, so another Yeah. Oh, it's not over yet, though. So, yeah. So then Thursday morning, wake up. Gotta check out. We go to a hotel. It's across the streets called the Tropicana. So we stay at the MGM. We stayed the crowd Tropicana. It's a nice hotel for what it costs. It's old. It needs some updating, but it's cool. It's got history to it. You So we're staying at Tropicana, we get there, stupid. Can we check in at three o'clock, which was like stupid. So we're there at like 11. And we're like we're going to do so we went and we went to a bar, the bar actually and Tropicana was, you know, that really strong guy. He wears glasses. He's like a chef.

Zac Saleski: 35:16

Oh, yeah. British protein bars to British. Yeah.

Murph: 35:20

So he was his bar. Oh, yeah. So yeah, it was one of the bars, ladies he promotes. So we're sitting there having drinks. Next thing, you know, this, these people show up next to us. And they had their phones you could tell they're doing they must work there. They do something like hey, can we get a Bud Light and a Stella but don't open it and they're like, Okay, and they were frothing the Bud Light and taking a picture of it next to the seller. So obviously, it was bad advertising because they're probably advertising for stellar stuff, Jesus. So they took a picture. And then they like, they looked our way. And they said, Hey, do you guys want a free beer? If my girlfriend's like,

Zac Saleski: 35:51

all the time? Yeah, they gotta work for the for Budweiser.

Murph: 35:55

Because the put a sell bottle next to the Budweiser. But the Budweiser was just a glass.

Zac Saleski: 36:00

Well still is owned by boat. Oh, I didn't know Yeah. They probably cuz they they do have I know this because a couple of reasons. But they do have people that go out and they do like promotions and pictures and motion. Okay. Yeah. So they'll probably do some sort of event. Yeah, so they're probably just putting up on Photoshop or something. I think they have like a ridiculous tab where the bass they can give away as many drinks as they want. Okay, yeah. Yeah, those are the people you want to become friends.

Murph: 36:27

All right, seriously. So they literally like do you want this Bud Light The give back? They're

Zac Saleski: 36:31

only there like that time of day though. Okay, so they're not they're very long. They weren't

Murph: 36:35

they weren't like promoters. You can tell they were just yeah, there. Yeah. So they Yeah, they weren't like the Bud Light girls. You see like what the tapes out and everything. They were just like, they just they were just normal people they look like to me like at first we thought they were staying there. And then the way they

Zac Saleski: 36:47

whatever. That's basically their job. Because I know a couple people who've done that where they their goal is their job is just to be there of like, oh, we have this event coming up the car will take pictures or whatever they're selling.

Murph: 36:57

Gotcha. So look like yeah, they just did it for a social media post. But anyway, yes, we gave it to the bartender. The bartender was like, Hey, you want this free beer and like, yeah, so another free beer? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. So then we, you know, just kind of had a chill night that that day, next day. So now this is for Friday, I think Yeah. Friday, we go out to the old Vegas, which was cool. And we that's where I sent you. The snap. We found I found a Canadian Bar in Vegas. was hilarious. But I did they had Molson had my favorite beers. It was hilarious.

Zac Saleski: 37:32

We got we got to give some proper props to Wu said. Oh, it's amazing cheeses. Awesome. Great.

Murph: 37:38

I barely getting in Canada. They're now starting to move down here. Yeah, it's one of my favorites. Sorry. Continue.

Zac Saleski: 37:43

They're starting to move. Where's it out of? Where's it from? No facts. Halifax

Murph: 37:49

like that. Yeah. Don't quote me on that. I don't know. I'm gonna Google it.

Zac Saleski: 37:52

It was it was originally like it bases Canadian beer start moving its way down. It's like the northeast area of the US. And I remember like New York. I think in Northern New York, you could probably get it and some random parts in the Northeast. You get it? And it's all fantastic.

Murph: 38:07

What? Yeah, sorry. I saw who's had lightup sign. I was like, damn, am I one of those? Yeah, right. Yeah, I'm just trying to see what it's like.

Zac Saleski: 38:15

Yeah, it's just super smooth. It's like, a much.

Murph: 38:19

Yeah, it's also independent. Ooh, yeah. Which is better. Yeah. Let's go. Yeah. So sorry. I'm just I'm just clicking on the website. 1867 has been around for a while. So I know that too. I just

Zac Saleski: 38:29

hope they're not like bought out by like, some sort of distribution company from the US or something. They're probably probably. Yeah, but you never know. It's like places like gambling. That's kind of what they did for a while they kind of stayed in their region. They start branching

Murph: 38:41

out is a New Brunswick. Okay. Yeah. He's like the east coast of Canada.

Zac Saleski: 38:45

Yeah, these are okay. Yeah. So that's why they moved on Northeastern US. Yeah, okay. Yeah. But they're, they're ciders are really good to every just everyday sliders. Man. It's hard to get that right. And they they do a hell of a job. Like especially in the summers, man. Yeah,

Murph: 39:01

it's a great it's honestly a great old all year round beer. Like, I could drink it hot, cold, whatever. Like hot outside cold outside. Just, it's smooth. Yeah, it's yeah, it's good. Okay, well, listen

Zac Saleski: 39:12

American, but you know what? Damn good.

Murph: 39:14

You know, you just have to admit it, man. It's It's alright. America doesn't always have the best everything. You know, there's other countries in places that just beer but a little bit better. They've been around a little longer, a little bit better. A little bit better.

Zac Saleski: 39:24

Jeremy's like, right. Oh, you know, you suck.

Murph: 39:28

Right? But anyway, yeah. So we were down there Saturday is Fremont Street. Awesome. We went to the mob Museum. I'm a bit of a I would thought about being buff or exactly. Buff a little bit. I thought about being a cop but me being a cop is kind of hilarious. Thought about it. I've got family members that are cops but that was cool. We went to a speakeasy which was awesome there. Do we zip lined down Fremont Street, shall have a slight fear of heights, but I still did it. And then we yeah, we were at the K bar. And these guys in Kansas shirts were sitting next to me and we were watching basketball and hockey is obviously Canadian, or they have the hockey games on. So we're watching that too. And I was just chatting with them. And they got me a beer to position that with a. And I was just like, Oh, thanks, man like you like, I feel like you don't know where we got you and like, oh my gosh, thank you. And so yeah, got a beer from them, just chatting with him, unfortunately, got a little tipsy. And then we tried to do like a nice dinner was not a good idea when you're tipsy. I literally am trying and it was Friday. And I'm Catholic. So like, I couldn't have meat. So I had this like seafood soup with a heavy sauce and I'm trying to eat it and I'm half drunk. And I literally like got up and I apologize, the waitress, but I'm so sorry. It's so good. But I can't eat all of this. I'm like done. And I only had maybe half of it. It was bad. But yeah, so So that ended that. So then the game was on Saturday. Yeah, I know. The store continues. I know. Hang in there, guys. It's almost. So you're right. So Saturday. So Saturday, my brother said, I'm gonna get you tickets. You still gotta go. So I'm getting your tickets. I'm like, Okay, well, thank you. I really appreciate it. Like, it's your birthday yet. I'm getting tickets like if it's my birthday, but okay. And so you got me tickets to the game, but we were waiting and the ticket guy. So they have a travel guide like tickets. He hadn't texted me, no one's messaged me or nothing. And we're thinking, Okay, well, let's just at least go down to the rank and we'll wait down there and we'll see what happens. So in Vegas, you can drink like on the sidewalks and they have like, the even near the rink. They have little like beer stands. You can go buy beer just so we've bought beer. I'm sitting there chilling. Next thing though these couple come up like you guys Blackhawk fans, like Yeah, I'm obviously I'm wearing my Blackhawks hat. Yeah. And they're like, I didn't tell him what. I didn't tell him. But my brother just kind of sat there and like, Oh, great. Well, we've been upgraded. Would you like our tickets? And I was just like, Oh, sure. And so two tickets. They were right. They were in the 100 section found out in Vegas, they don't do a 200 section one. Hundreds of nosebleeds then slower. So we had tickets. I'm like, well, at least we can go to the game now. But we decided let's wait. And we'll call and see what happens. Brothers tickets, right? We'll call they just never texted me about them. So we ended up getting good seats anyway, so we didn't even end up using the tickets. game happens. I had$100 gift card to the MGM bar that way stayed up because I got my booster vaccine. And so we decided let's go sit at the bar and just kind of drink and watch some basketball and wait till it gets a little darker to go see some more Vegas stuff. And so we're just sitting there. Next thing, you know, guy walks up, says like, oh, you know, I'll take I forgot how he said it. But he's like, I'll take like two pints or whatever. And the way he said I was like, I literally looked at him. I was like, you gotta be Canadian. And he like, looked at me. He's like, Yeah, and I'm like, I was like, my parents are Canadian. I'm gonna go half Canadian. I'm like, I gotta turns out he is. He owns a restaurant, in a city in Canada, where my cops where my cop or my uncle is a detective in so he's probably like, Oh, your uncle probably knows who I am. He didn't know my uncle. But he's like my aunt. Your uncle probably knows who I am chatting. He buys us a drink at the bar. chat with him for like, a few hours the head like and the one thing my girlfriend had a laugh like that are so great about Canadians because like this to me, like brought it to a tee was like we're talking and he's like, Oh, he's like, got exchanged number with you with you. Change exchanged numbers with you guys, but I'll probably never see or talk to you guys again. And like, but like that's what you have to respect about Canadians. Like they're up front like that. But there's like no hostility behind it. Like it's just a good time good conversation. Like we're all just chatting and like, and then we just part ways and if the winds bring us together great. If not, we're done. So should the listeners or like, does this story get any better? No, I'm sorry. That's the gist of it. But yes,

Zac Saleski: 43:39

I was like a homeless right. You've given him so badly.

Murph: 43:42

The week that I was there I pretty much yeah, pretty much got a free drink almost every day. I was there. It was insane.

Zac Saleski: 43:48

It was strange. I'm curious. To know like what you said these kinds of people of all things.

Murph: 43:53

I was just Oh, that was it. I was just like, I think I've already damn

Zac Saleski: 43:57

well he named dropped me.

Murph: 43:58

No, actually, I did. Unfortunately I am. Wow. No, no, I literally just like oh, you know, like, I was like, I think I think because they won that day. And I was like, oh you know nice when he looks like you guys are surviving. And they're like oh yeah and like but this and that's because St. Pete for any of you guys I don't know if any do they follow college basketball in your maybe it's made the news over there. He was still doing definitely Maybelline I was one sees me doing their huge run. So we were just talking about like bracket busting and all that and yeah, but yeah, that was that was that was it was interesting. Never Never Yeah, it was like, Yeah, I just got every day I at least got one free drink almost.

Zac Saleski: 44:37

See, I always always love I always like to know, anytime like Murphy or like myself every time like we run into like people from that side of the country. Whether it's Kansas or Missouri or that whole area. I always like to know where they're from. Just so I can like scoff at them a little bit. Because the more more more like not eight times eight times out of 10 It's normally the same like right around the same area in Kansas. I'm like

Murph: 44:59

I thought about it, but as much as talking about Kansas, I keep, like Liberty township or something, but I always keep forgetting where so like my liberty. Yeah. So every time I talk with people about that stuff, I sound like a fucking idiot because I'm no good, because it's Missouri, but it's not Missouri, like, I don't know. And they're like, Missouri, like Missouri's in almost a big place. And I'm just like, oh, okay, like, and people just look at me like, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about? I'm like, Yeah, you know, St. Louis,

Zac Saleski: 45:28

Missouri, is this kind of sort of very similar to Columbus, where all like most populations on the on the outskirts and the suburbs. So usually how I can I can figure it out is on the Kansas side when the biggest suburbs is normally Overland Park. So anytime. And this is this, how this is kind of probably what people do in Canada, because they always say, Oh, I'm from like, Toronto. Yeah. Which, in turn, you're right from outside of Toronto somewhere, I'm sure. Same thing can study. It's like, oh, I'm from Kansas City. Alright, then I gotta ask him, Missouri, Kansas. Kansas.

Murph: 46:00

I don't know how to explain it, though. I feel like in the US, I guess is the best way explain. I think it's kind of like Europe, with Canada. And I know they're gonna go crazy when I make this analogy. But like, you'll say Columbus, but like we live in like Dublin, whereas like in Canada, like you don't say Toronto, you say where you're from. So I wouldn't say you wouldn't say so. Like, if Toronto was Columbus, you wouldn't say Columbia, you wouldn't say Toronto, you'd say I'm from Dublin. So like, for example, these people were from like, Whitby, which is like, a few hours outside of Toronto. So it's like a small, okay, it's like a it's it's on the map. So yeah, but like, even like another example B Scarborough, like it's just outside of Toronto, but people consider it its own thing, not part of like, even though it's part of Toronto, they consider its own thing. Yeah. So it's like, they kind of recognize their own little communities. So we're just like, I hear us, we simplify it. So it'd be like, Oh, I'm from Columbus, but But you live in Dublin, which Dublin's 30 minutes outside of Columbus. So for a lot of people that's like its own little town that you identify by. So they do that in Canada. And I think they kind of do that in Europe, because some of the Europeans I've met it's, I don't know, I feel like they're not like I'm not from London. I'm from

Zac Saleski: 47:08

European on site, they usually say that they're from wigs. At least for Germans, they say exactly where they're from people. Knowing Germans are very astute. So then people vary. So people are like, oh, there's any explain it and then yeah, but in the US, it's very similar, at least from like, what I noticed people like oh, like they're always, most people will say like, they'll closest biggest city. Yeah, and then and then you start digging. Okay, well, part. Yeah. Is it? Oh, cider

Murph: 47:36

that. That that some Canadians will do that. But yeah, they'll but like, even if you don't ask, they'll preface it. You know what I mean? So like, oh, you probably haven't heard of it. I'm from Toronto, but I'm not really in Toronto. And then they and then if you don't like it's called this so? Yeah, it's it's real the streets out here me? Yeah, I guess I guess that's like a lot of local primers in the US. Just kind of round it. Were like, Yeah, I'm just round it. It's fine.

Zac Saleski: 47:59

We don't want to we don't want to spend the time to be like, yeah, oh, yeah. I'm just from this little tiny town like, Oh, wow. Yeah. For you. Yeah, exactly.

Murph: 48:06

Yeah, we got we got bigger things to do. Yeah. You start

Zac Saleski: 48:09

begging and go small. Right, Canada. You start small and go big

Murph: 48:12

here. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. While you're sex tape. What? Alright,

Zac Saleski: 48:17

chill. I'll Tommy Lee.

Murph: 48:21

What eight? Yeah, that was yeah, that was that was Vegas. nutshell. That was Vegas and

Zac Saleski: 48:26

survived Vegas and everything else in between you stay there.

Murph: 48:30

Yeah, right. Seriously, though. I don't know if you ever have this. Try. Remember what you've gone out to the West Coast, right? Yeah. Okay. For Lily for three days after I got back. I felt like I was I had a weird head. Hi. I couldn't figure out what it was like. I felt like I was like, like, I just smoked a bunch of weed. It was like I was just like, why? Right? Yeah. Mary Jane the devil's lettuce. But literally, it felt like I was just like, I was floating. It was weird for like three days. It was really weird.

Zac Saleski: 48:57

Yeah, like, I mean, the West Coast timezone is it'll mess you up. Oh, yeah. I have a uncle that lives out in like California. Okay, and that that's like, I we only went out there a couple times to visit him. But that was like the worst coming back. Because this is the time that I actually meet my family that we're living still live in Kansas City. So when you come back even it's like, one to two hour difference. But you got West mountain time and then that okay. And then you're just like, like, yeah, because time just moves so much slower out there a little bit because then it's like, nine o'clock 10 o'clock or the cops are tired, right? Because it's supposed to be like, midnight oil

Murph: 49:37

was so bad. Ya know, there were a few times I actually fell asleep in public places in Vegas because it would be like 12 o'clock and I'm like this three o'clock our time. Oh, no, no, yeah, it was yeah, it was all bad.

Zac Saleski: 49:47

So go from one extreme to the other. It's it's it's not fun. And like even even when I go to Europe, it's like six hours ahead or five hours depending on it.

Murph: 49:56

I'm just like, like Sandra just it's bad. Yeah,

Zac Saleski: 49:59

takes about Yeah, about three days there three full days and then you're like, Okay, I can adjust this right? But for some reason West Coast is like, I just this weird this whole thing of odd. Everybody here is weird.

Murph: 50:11

I hate you. Oh, going back home you want to see we're just go to Vegas there's a lot of weird. Oh yeah, yes. Yeah Even so Fremont Street which is the old strip like the amount of weirdness I saw like I mean Tasia would joke about that like just the people watching was like it was weird. It was Yeah. Oh yeah, like it's just the it's the first time I've seen him in public place I didn't think it was I guess technically it's clothing but a little movie like that girls dressed in like domination gear. And then another one was like American dominatrix gear with was with a thong but on our assets at USA I don't like what

Unknown: 50:44

is this? Wow. Yeah. It's like New Orleans

Murph: 50:48

was the weirdest thing. Yeah, it is like New Orleans. It was so weird.

Zac Saleski: 50:51

Yeah, weird, folks.

Murph: 50:54

And it goes to show you if we ever legalized weed as a country, like the amount of weed smoke, I smelled. It was just everywhere. And I'm like, I didn't think it's legal out there. But people were just smoking like crazy. crap about that. Oh, no. Other stuff to worry about. Yeah.

Zac Saleski: 51:08

Yeah. To be out of towners, right? Boy.

Murph: 51:12

What did you do?

Zac Saleski: 51:13

mean nothing? Nothing at all. I'm just working with boring. I lived through you right now.

Murph: 51:19

Oh, okay. That's that's very tame then.

Zac Saleski: 51:21

I tried to be low key right now. That's where we're gonna figure it out. Because the last like week or so we've been getting, we get a little bit of an uptick on our small town, Ohio videos. Very cool. And

Murph: 51:33

so it's been the weather's turning up here. So yeah, we're finally getting some adventures going,

Zac Saleski: 51:37

man. And there's been a couple of places that we have not hit yet. Where I'm like, we got to Dan, we've only done like, you don't Columbus, we've done maybe like Mansfield Canton. If you haven't done like a bit of Akron, tiny, tiny bit at Akron. We haven't done like Cleveland. We haven't done like, I mean, I really we had Dayton yet

Murph: 51:57

now. Yeah, not much urgency or necessity. That's that's the thing,

Zac Saleski: 52:01

though, like Yellow Springs when we did that. Yeah. Yeah. And like that video started really piling up. What? Well, wow, that was fun. There was nothing in that video, right? Let's sit there editing and the whole time. Like, I mean, it's good. But I'm like, not perfect my mind

Murph: 52:17

right now, because we just got obsessed with that small college that might have been abandoned, but it wasn't

Zac Saleski: 52:22

just shit on the floor. They probably just we were so

Murph: 52:26

privileged kids in that day, it was so bad. Oh my god,

Zac Saleski: 52:31

they probably just shut it down. And like, Hey, here's to

Murph: 52:33

seriously Oh my gosh. But it was just like, again, I just couldn't get over it. Like, I know, we kind of the buildings were like, condemned. And there were people in the dorms like hanging out. And I'm like, how do you go to college in a place that's half condemned?

Zac Saleski: 52:46

Like, it's not just like a college. It's like, it's really

Murph: 52:50

a community college. Like I feel bad saying it but it was it was worse than Community College.

Zac Saleski: 52:54

Well, you have like really like pretty well named people that work there. So you're just like, how could this fall apart? And like, like Mark said, half the buildings are being used other half like, just there's we can't we can't afford the electricity. So it's actually a pretty big small college. Yeah. And you're like, wow, it's it's pretty massive. But I mean, Jesus was

Murph: 53:14

in disarray. Like they weren't taking care of everything. And yeah, literally like, wow, I remember walking Riverwalk, and some of the buildings Ilya had signs posted like, cannot enter. Like all that kind of stuff. Yeah. And then that was it. We met the the old people walking a couple that they were like, they had graduated from there. And they were like, ya know, like, like, we're alums here. But like, we know, like, half these buildings, like condemned, like they don't use them ever. Yeah. And then then they go to find out that we found out he's like, yeah, one of the guys I graduated with, decide to turn his life around. And he's like, one of the biggest like, medical guys in New York. And I'm like, holy shit. So it was just weird having him say this place. Yeah, right. Yeah, seriously. But I was like, Yeah, Dave Chappelle was like his parents were elite were were linked to it right? His dad or whatever. It was

Zac Saleski: 54:00

crazy about that. I went to look back at that. And Dave Chappelle was on link with Stephen Colbert one time and he actually like mentioned that he's like, Oh, what's what's close to that? And he was like, oh, like, this plays that place. A little town like little tiny college called any alcoholic home like, oh my goodness, we're about to get more admission.

Murph: 54:19

Hilarious. What you think like you think like, Martin Luther King's wife would draw some attention? Yeah. Like no, no, no, no, just nothing like

Zac Saleski: 54:28

that's that is a perfect town for all the you know, Bernie supporters that's like that that's their that's my gosh, that is their

Murph: 54:36

honestly that is a liberal Miami. Oh, no, that is Oh, that was a liberal my extra liberal was Yeah, man. Yeah. Which I guess we probably should at some point. Take the viewers to Miami where we were where I graduated from. You're close, but

Zac Saleski: 54:49

not yet. I know. We definitely gotta go there. Yeah, fly the drone around because honestly, like, that's very similar to the Yellow Springs. Yeah,

Murph: 54:59

except it's definitely More privilege way more foliage yeah way more Republican privilege fly my drone around my father

Zac Saleski: 55:05

will hear about it yeah

Murph: 55:06

lawyers last oh geez

Zac Saleski: 55:10

oh so expect when the weather starts to break we'll we'll probably get out

Murph: 55:14

even though we had some snow today that was kind of disappointing today weird as a bad day

Zac Saleski: 55:19

what Yeah, yesterday was nice today cold and welcome Ohio like

Murph: 55:23
