anybody watching us on Tic Tac right now, call in here. Stop. We’ve got some new things on Tic Tac. We
have started the baseball cards. We have program of putting them together.
Yeah. How’s that going? I got some a load of doubles of
um Woody. Um what was the other guy’s name?
Woody. You have you have a double card baseball card of Woody
of um Do you of uh of the Cardinal uh second baseman?
Oh, you’re talking about Azie. Azie Smith. Aussie Smith. I got a copy of him.
Yeah. for sale. For sale. Yeah. Yeah. I got um
a couple of uh But what were they
put this on paper, man? I keep forgetting what I’m doing. People are going to want to go to the Tik Tok page, Uncle the Podcast on Tik
Tok, and follow because there’s all sorts of videos we already made of these baseball cards, and there’s going to be
more. So, we’ll see what we have. Uncle’s willing to buy or trade. Not really.
Well, buy, not buy, but sell or trade. We’re not looking to buy them. We’re looking to sell.
If somebody wants it switch uh on to switch me, I I’ll go with that, too.
Yeah. Yeah. So, that’d be making the trades. You might trade cards. Trade cards depending on what you have or maybe
sell off a certain card for the right price. Yeah. Oh, uncle on the baseball card
thing. I got a suggestion in the tic tac comments. We had [ __ ]
[ __ ] does follow us on Tic Tac and we follow him and he was suggesting
Coolie’s talk. Yeah, [ __ ] is there on Tik Tok. He he dropped in the comments section of one of your baseball card videos and he
suggested that you don’t put rubber bands on your baseball cards.
Oh, that’s what I figured it was at. You knew you knew he would tell you that. It says something about that. I They all
rusted out anyway. I took them out when I checked them out. The rubber bands
rubber bands are gone. So, the rubber bands were only on there for decades and decades and decades. The
amount of damage might have died. They’re rusted out. It’s negligible. They’re gone anyway now.
Yeah. Yeah. So, now the dry rotted rubber bands have crusted away and and
become dirt. I figured it was something that he would mention. So, yeah. Yeah, that’s that was his
little pointer, his uh trading cards. Pro tip to you, Uncle. Yeah, I didn’t know about that, but
I didn’t either. Well, be careful of those rubber bands on the trading cards. Well, it’s the ones that I’m switching
over to. Uh I’m I’m swapping or trading or whatever they want to do.
Mhm. Those are the ones that were noted with the that had the rubber bands on them. Rubber bands on them.
Yeah. We got to be careful with these cards here. are not the good ones. The good ones are in a pack of boxes.
I got a says John on one of them. It’s a set. See the I got sets of them.
Lots of sets. Tons of sets. Lots of sets of them. Sets of sets. That was one of the
videos. All the sets that you had. I don’t remember. We’ve got like four videos at least now of those uh card
videos that we’ve done. Any what’s the comment on the vid on the tic tac uh any
following? We we keep getting followers. We keep getting new followers. The Tik Tok to ask about that
as a whole. The Tik Tok page is doing good. The trading cards aren’t our most
popular videos. They are. No, they are not. But we have had we have had people in the comments section
on them a little bit. So, they’re not too bad. Uh, like I was saying, [ __ ] was saying no rubber bands, but other
people are just saying sort of stuff like uncle flexing the cards and things like this. So, oh,
people do enjoy it. So, it’s it’s it’s not too bad. I would say your food
videos are very popular. Oh, that they’re over the top of those. I know that
we know about the food. So, those those are popular. Uh, the food the ones that we did at Six
Flags, those videos have done pretty good. Oh yeah, we’ve got people in the we’ve got people
in the tic tac chat. We got to respond to them. Oh, it’s uh it’s my wife. Let’s just be
honest about it. She’s in there and she’s saying uh sell the cards.
I want to set you up TikTok. She’s she’s talking about just sell the cards, I think, is what’s going on there. Yeah.
What the heck? Mrs. Sidekick doesn’t even know about
baseball. She doesn’t as much as I do. No.
So, the coins I can sell them or trade them. It doesn’t matter.
Well, I got a load of them. I got a load of them in my cases. Yeah, I’ll get rid of all the empty all the old All the loose
ones. Those are gone. Those I’m going to get rid of. Just the loose Oh, the single ones.
The single ones. I mean, you’re going to get rid of those? Yeah. It’s It’s Or they want to trade them with me. It’s
difficult to know what has value. People not looking at them yet. Now, that’s the problem here. You’re saying
get rid of the cards. You can’t just get rid of the cards if they don’t if they
don’t uh look and have a deciding to see them.
They need So, we need to do some videos where we show each individual card like here’s this card, here’s this card.
Maybe just flip through a bunch of cards. Then people can see specifically what we have and they can be like, “Oh,
that’s a good one.” Yeah, we haven’t done any of those yet. Yeah, we might need
show them up close and you say, “Look, this is the condition this is in.” Right.
Some people will buy something that’s a little banged up and some people don’t buy anything that’s banged up. So, those rubber bands could cost you.
Yeah. Yeah. I know. I got I got rid of all them. I opened it up and it was all
rusted out. Anyway, the rubber band itself. So, so you’re agreeing with what [ __ ] said, uh, Chuck, about the rubber
bands, is that Yeah, he is saying that. Yeah. Oh, yeah. That does nothing but damage. But I mean, in the old days, we didn’t
know. You know, you just you didn’t think of them as having any big value. Yeah, they weren’t at that time. No,
they weren’t at that time. You mentioned Aussie Smith. Now, what year is that card from? That’s another
thing. Well, there were a couple of different Aussie Smith cards. A couple of them. Yeah. So,
I have a couple of probably different years. Yeah, different years, I’d say. Give or take different years.
See, but if you got like a 1980 Aussie Smith, that’s worth a lot of money. Oh, it is.
You know, but you could have all the 90s and it’s not worth much at all. The dollar most, you know what I mean? It
depends. Yeah. But we got to look what we’re going to have to do then is look at the years of them. That’s what we have to do. Yeah.
Now you something to do. got something to do then. Oh boy. Start looking through again and see for
the year. It’s the year and the condition. The condition too because you got marks
where rubber bands were that that knocks the You know, you could have a $1,000 card, but if it had rubber band marks on
it on all four sides, you know, it turns into a $100, you know, you get 10 cents on the dollar
if you damage it too much. you know, or how much is scratched on the picture or if it had gum marks on it because, you
know, gum used to come in the past. They had it on the rubber bands. Those that I know of, he and they he didn’t
have rubber bands on him. Aussie Smith. Auntie Smith. But but they had But they
had these doubles that I had rubber bands on. Doubles that I had. That was
all. Okay. Yeah. They were, son. Yeah.
Yeah. Everything is going to have some value, but how much? Yeah.
How how you doing, Chuck, with these with the thing? Get started yet? Yeah. Well, so no, so far I made one
order and they were supposed to come in the mail and they got wrecked in the mail. So, I got a refund and now I got to figure out what I’m going to try and
pick up next. That’s what I got so far. Your son don’t destroyed in the mail.
Your son don’t collect baseball cards? That’s surprising.
I’m surprised your son doesn’t collect them. That that was the effort that was being
put put in, I think, was like to try to get the collection going, but yeah, they fell off the road, I guess. I’ve
never heard so many problems with the US Postal Service as you, Chuck. Like, I’ve I hardly ever have problems with them.
It’s weird. I’m surprised that I don’t, but I’ve had good luck over the years and I use it a lot. Let’s see.
Yeah. for his shirts and other things. Always mailing crap. Yeah, constantly.
But yeah, cards everybody. Does anybody have cards? Does anybody want cards? Anybody want trade cards? We got them.
We got cards. Follow the tic tac. You’ll learn all about it.
And I got a double of someone else. Was
it a football player? You got lots of doubles of all sorts of loads of doubles, but I forget who
Wait a minute. How the heck I had to look? Oh, they’re saying on TikTok that they
want to open up a boba shop named Boba Fett. Boba?
Yeah, I guess. Oh, no. Don’t get that started. Your little guy likes Boba and he’s going to
get in. Well, let him get into that. Get him down here and get him in. have him do Boba Fett
cuz he’s a he knows how to make him here. I’m tempted to have him stand in for me again on the uh as as co-host as
sidekick here. Little mini sidekick instead of me. Tired here, Uncle
Fatigued. But the show must go on. We’re going to do this thing.
There you are. Oh, there you are. Oh, you’re back. Chuck is here. Oh, that that is at the mention.
Something went weird. We got it back. Yep. Okay. Oh, you lost us. You lost us. Oh. Oh,
you know what I realized is I’m not doing a recording of this show. That’s okay, though. Who Who cares here? Hey, wait a minute. Do a regular
No recording. That’s surprising. Well, I forgot. I I I had a new element
that I was adding in with the uh live streaming of the Age of Transitions. That made me forget the other thing.
Even though I have it pulled up, I forgot. But that’s Yeah, it’s okay. I’ve got the whole
thing on audio with uh with the interruption. So, okay. Yeah.
Well, well, if anybody’s out there, give us a ring. Let’s get going here.
Please. Come on, Tic Tac. Help us out. Call in. Call us now. 319-5275016.
We know you’re there. We know Furas 123 just joined.
What’s number seven? What’s at seven? Seven. What? Yeah.
Total viewers, seven. Oh, isn’t that great? Isn’t that a lot? It’s pretty good.
It’s something. Big E, welcome to the tic tac. We’re so glad that you’re watching our show. Why
don’t you call in and talk to us, Big E? All you have to do is call 319-5275016
and you’ll be on our show. We can’t pull you on through the Tik Tok button, but you could use your phone to call us and
that’s way better. 319-5275016. You’re gonna be an uh guest caller on
the age of trans. I I was a call in one of my shows one
time before. Mama, I did. You called into your own show. Yeah, you were. You were in Landers, I
think. Yes, I know that you did call Land at one point. Yeah. Yeah, I do remember
doing that. Oh, that’s another thing that we could mention, too. Um, we can
we now have the ability to go to Landers and do a podcast, do a live stream, and
have it actually work because we have new internet connection out there. That’s actually good. It is.
It was horrible before we changed it. Now we have good internet. So, we could do live streams from there. And the
Lander shows could actually be good. Maybe the New Year’s Evolution one. Another one of them. Yeah, we’ll have to get out there. I
like to do them out there. in Landers. At Landers for some if we if you have an
opening Yeah. I would like to have try that because the reason is if there’s no B of the air
there for renting, we could have stay over the night and you know and then come back next day for
something like that. Yeah. Because um that kind of thing is
you got to stay when you do that because you can’t drive right after a drink.
There’s no way. You ain’t going to get you ain’t Oh, you’re saying that we could be drinking at the house and then just stay
there, sleep there and come back the next morning and we we’d be fine if we were drinking
on the show because we didn’t have to go anywhere. Yeah, that’s true. Giant rock. There it is, everybody.
That’s where we we would be right next to it uh at our house in Landers is not
far from that. So, we could be streaming from there. Maybe we should be. We might have to do something from out there,
Uncle because we do have that ability. So, it’d be a shame to put it to waste. I did like to see how it really works.
It really have the thing and Willie got the m can put music on it, too. Yeah. I mean, I’d like to hear what kind of
internet you really have now now that you got the new one. Yeah. I mean, it should it should work well. It would
be also good just as a test to see how well it works. No, I think I think it should be real good.
So, so we’re just putting that out there so everybody knows. We might do a live from Landers broadcast at some point.
Um, let me see. Let me pipe in the Ochelli chat room here to see what’s going on there because I haven’t even
looked at that. Let me I have the graphic here. Let me refresh it.
Looks like we’ve got phase shifter there. We’ve got Citizen GX.
That’s it. And Uncle, I went through I went through two hours on my show. No callers, by the
way. Nobody called in. I just talked to my co-host. What’s
going on tonight, Chuck? What’s happening? Yeah. What is going on? We were here last Weren’t we here last
week? We were We were here last week. We were here last week and now we’re this week and no one’s showing up. I
don’t understand. Yeah. Well,
I guess maybe the third week will be the charm. This is an off week for some reason.
Let’s see. What is it so that nobody wants to call?
We’re putting the number out. 319-527-5016. I see I hear something in the Ochelli
chat, so I’m going to go over to it again. Uh, uncle is gone.
I’m gone. Oh. Oh, you know what? Chuck didn’t respond to us there. So, I think what’s going on here, Uncle, is that we’re
going in and out of connection with Chuck for some reason. I’m not sure what.
Uh, but that’s what’s happening. Man, I I’m kind of annoyed that I forgot to do the
recording, but that’s okay. We’ve got the YouTube version of this. I told you that I’m doing a YouTube version of the
Age of Transitions now as well, Uncle. I told you that he just told me that he had a shirt over by here one time and I said I didn’t get
his shirt to make. I know. And that’s got me mad. And I’m giving him a shirt. Just a minute here.
So good. I’m glad I told you. That’s a good thing. So now we got different YouTube stuff going on. It’s pretty
exciting. So you didn’t talk much about the to the idiot much about him on your show.
Oh, Alex is there on Tic Tac. Welcome, Alex. Why don’t you call in to Uncle the Podcast and talk to us, Alex. Here, let
me give you the phone number to call in. Uh, this is it. 319-5275016.
If you call that number on your phone, you will be talking to us on this show.
I know that Tik Tok has its little thing like, oh, invite the guest through this hole. You swipe them over. That’s not
what we’re doing. We do things our way here, Alex. If you call in this phone number, you will be the guest. This is
like a real radio show here. 319-527-5016. Please join us. Um, you will get piped
in by Chuck. He will uh he will make sure that you are patched in via the
phone lines and you will be our guest on the podcast as a caller. It’ll be real
exciting. Anybody can call. So, whoever’s the first one will get that opportunity.
It’s exciting. Some nights we get a lot of calls. Tonight we have not had one yet. So hoping to get our first call for
the evening. Would be nice. It does seem as though we have lost
connection with Chuck for some reason. I don’t know what the heck is going on. It’s on his side. Must be on his side.
I think so because the YouTube Well, let me check all the streaming channels.
But yeah, the streams are still streaming on Tic Tac, on YouTube, on Twitch. It’s on his everything’s going.
I think so. The connection between him and us is having some sort of issue. I don’t know what. It’s on his side of the of of the talk
show. Yeah. Because if you say everything’s working here,
then we should have been able to get him. Yeah. I I don’t know. It’s something wrong here. It’s got to
probably fixing it. I don’t know. I’m being told by my better half that we don’t have any free weekends to go out
to the desert. That’s all. Oh, no. No. Not what I heard earlier today. That that that I heard of. I
heard that. That is true. I mean I I knew that. So I mean that’s the that’s the one thing
holding us back now at this point. It’s not the internet. It’s just the Well, people are renting.
I’m not not fighting not having a renting. I mean, it’s just just go ahead and have a renting done and they because
you’re making money that way, but I’m not complaining. I’m not complaining about it. It’s just that when you get a run to if they uh
let up or something, I will someday go, but not not not immediately. If that’s
the case, let me Okay, it seems like Hold on. I see they’re complaining over at the Ochelli chat. Let me take a look
at the different things here. Let me look at my Microsoft Teams. No, I
haven’t gotten any messages from Chuck on there. Uh let me I think Chex is down
is knocked down somewhere. Yeah, cuz Chuck doesn’t seem to be anywhere. They’re wondering where we are
in the Ochelli chat. I can’t Can we get over to the Chili chat?
Yeah. Yeah, I can drop a comment in there. Drop a comment. We’re here. So, just let us know.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I’ll be like do that. I mean, okay. I’ll say we are here.
um broadcast going out on the
video live streams, but we lost
connection to Chuck. It’s connection
on error on uh I’ll say video error.
Video error. Send that. We’re on video error. send that. Yeah, I sent that out to him. So, that’s
in the chat over there. So, okay then. Good. I don’t know. Yeah. Not sure what’s going on there, but hey, it’s just uh
I got a new way talking on my my thing. See this sideways?
Yeah. That way it doesn’t interfere. No, no, no. But Uncle that’s not ideal
for sound. You want What do you mean? You want You want the You want to be speaking into the microphone, not into the side of it like it’s a corn cob that
you’re eating. Okay. Kob. You’re supposed to be You’re supposed to be talking into it this way. Yeah.
Corn cob. We need That’s You’re It looked like you’re eating a piece of corn, but it’s a It’s
a It’s a shotgun microphone. There we go. That’s good. You’re perfect now. I just don’t You don’t touch it.
I I get the idea. It’s like you like the new approach. You You It seemed like it felt good for the angle, but I don’t
think it’s going to work out so good. Yeah. Yeah. So this is we’re we know what we’re doing over here. O I am a
tired camper here, uncle. I So what was your hour last hour? Well,
I was talking about how the machines are coming to life through the algorithms and how they’re manipulating us all and
making us do their bidding. Well, that here. We’re doing it here.
Operating it at this stage. It’s true. But at least we know that’s
that’s what we’re doing. We’re aware that that’s what’s happening. So that’s a start. Let me check the tic tac
monitor again. Um we got Ryan Gormarmac that’s here on Tic Tac. Welcome to the show, Ryan.
Ryan, if you want to call in to the show, guess what? You can. You can. We take callers on this show.
319-5275016. So call if you want. Uh, our producer is
having some sort of technical difficulty. So, if the line’s down, it might be part of that. But I think we
can take calls. Maybe I should stop giving the call-in number, Uncle. Well, if we’re not getting it, that
could be the reason. Yeah, cuz there might be something on his end that’s causing the phone problem.
Might be something happened somewhere. I don’t know what. This is a weird night, Uncle.
It’s a strange night. Is what’s his name? Who? Ghost Man. Oh yeah, Ghost Man.
We We’ll have to have Ghost Man back on the show sometime. Hey, you was talking about the other day

We’re now a month away from baseball. Are you getting excited for this baseball season? Are you They’re already They’re already playing.
What are you talking about? Getting ready. They’re already playing.
I mean, I’m sort today, for example, the Mets exploded
at uh at uh the Cardinals 12 to something. 12-3.
There was an explosion in the game. Yeah, they I don’t know what our pictures look like, but my cousin says
we got some decent ones, but I don’t know. I I I still don’t see the picture
on the TV shows. Why we cannot get TV to watch a baseball
game? I still don’t understand that. Well, when does the official season
start? When does the official season start? It’s Danny. You got a lot of Danny.
Yeah, cuz look, when does the official season start though? Because uh this is
preseason games you’re looking at or hearing about or what, right? Yeah. So, when does when does the season
actually open? Ed would know that. End of March.
End of March. Is it? Oh, end of March then. End of March. I was on unless I read it
incorrectly. I didn’t look to see what they were, but the Giants were hosting the Yankees I
think March 26 in San Francisco. So, I I did see that because I was looking for
opening day. Oh. Oh, I see. So, it’s end of March.
There we go. Oh, that answers that question. So, you’re watching preseason games is what you’ve been doing. Been that’s what I’ve been doing. I’ve
been They actually pop on my phone and I I see scores.
That’s how I look at them because we can’t see them on the TV. Oh, there you go. There you go. Watch it
on that phone. At least you can see scores. Scores are good. Yeah.
Very good. Well, what do you think’s going to happen this year, uh, Danny
in the baseball in the baseball? I think the Dodgers will be strong
again. Um, you know, one thing about baseball that’s always uh which makes it
special is that it’s 162 games that’s amazing at a 162 games. It can sometimes
comes to down to the so the last game or two before who gets in the playoffs. I
that’s always been the great um fascination with baseball. You know, you
know who I always a couple people I always love hearing baseball was George Will. You ever hear George Will talk
about baseball? I believe he wrote a book about it. He was the uh the uh political commentator for decades on
television and writer columnist. Was it played for the uh Kansas City
Chiefs? Kansas City Kansas City Royals.
No, George Li was a writer. He was a writer. He never played he never played baseball, but
just listening baseball. He was kind of a uh in print media kind of remind me of Vince
Skullley, you know, the Dodger the Dodger uh announcer. He was always
so nice what I actually heard of. No, I haven’t.
Don’t know him. Huh. Oh. Oh, we’re getting another call. Here we go. That got another caller. Hold on. They’re
coming in now. All right. Who’s on air? And you’re on air with him. Hello.
Oh, hey. It’s Jimmy James. How you doing, uncle? Oh, hi there, Jimmy.
I knew it going to be him coming. You saw that coming? So, what what’s happening with you?
Same old, same old. Trying to get over it. Winter’s starting to turn to spring,
I hope. When is coming? That’s when the games start.
That’s Well, we did talk when Danny and I was just talking about the baseball and the end of uh end of March is when it
starts. Definitely warm enough outside to be uh Oh, yeah. It’s been talking about the
weather department. It has been hot,
I tell you. I know. Tell me. It’s been hot. So, why you think people
are in the house? Because it’s too hot to go outside. Ding ding ding. They got a message
right. There we go. Too hot to go out there. Everybody stay in. Stay inside. But the weather people would tell you.
They would. I hope they do tell me. That way I know. Well,
we got two callers. Uncle, this is exciting. We got Jimmy and we have uh Danny here. Jimmy and Danny.
Very good. Jimmy and Danny. It’s two more than I got tonight. So, yeah. That’s pretty good. Pretty good.
Yeah, we’re getting worried for a second. We were, but now I I feel reassured. That’s for sure. No, cuz I cuz we’re back on E again.
We’re back. We’re back. See, they don’t miss my shows. Yeah, check. They don’t miss my shows.
Yeah, they’re Chuck.
This is kind of interesting for you and me because we have uh housing insecurity
and and it might be interesting. I’m just curious. Uh Aaron might have seen it on
Amazon. Erin, have you seen these houses that you can order and
about that? Just keep it shows up and you just keep unfolding the thing and it turns into a
prefab house. I believe I’ve seen videos of people putting them together online.
That sounds seems familiar. Yeah. What of them?
Uncle, have you seen the the fold out houses where you just, you know, if you need an extra room, you just kind of
unfold it, you reconfigure it, and boom, it’s got another room like just fold it into the place. No, I have you seen that?
I haven’t seen any of that. Nope. Yeah, I have not. Yeah, they have these out.
I Yeah. Oh. Uh uh Jimmy uh your thing is on your is on
your way. Is on your way. You’re getting it. Oh, the the the mug. His the glass that you sent.
Oh, it’s shot glass. Yeah, it is packed up. It is packed up and gone, right? Well, it’s packed up in here on the
table. What you mean? It’s on the table. It’s It’s packed up in here. Well, the thing is like I I I keep waiting to like
pack it up with a shirt, but then like I thought it was gone already. It’s a mail thing. I I I’ll get it out
there. I’ll get it out there. The man’s waiting. Can No, no, I got it. I have it packed. It’s just waiting for the label and so
soon. Oh, wait a minute. What label you need? A shipping label. It’s not hard. I just
want to send it out when I know that somebody cuz I I can’t get to the post office in the day. So, I got to make sure I make the label for when I know
somebody is going to the post office so I can give it to them that they take it for me. Oh, that’s a little
Maybe I’m crazy, but yeah, I was just going to say, can’t you just print out a label and they’ll pick it up in the
course of your normal mail delivery and take it? Or uh Well, we have we have one of those
mail box things, so you have to intercept the carrier at the mailbox thing.
I don’t know. I might be able to set up pickup maybe, but we go The thing is
like we’re always sending packages out on a regular basis. I’m just going to wait till I know we have one of those
and that somebody’s taking them. I’ll print out this label at the same time and I’ll have them take that package with it. That just hasn’t aligned
properly as of yet, but it it will it’ll it’ll work. So, this is all very
exciting the way that our mail works. I know, but uh it’s going it’s going
I didn’t know it was I thought it was gone. No, it’s right here. Here. Actually, I I’ll hold it up so that people can watch
it and see it on the video. I because there’s no address on it now. So I can hold it up and there’s no address to
reveal. So I’m going to hold up the box that it’s in. It’s in this box. Cool, huh? I swear it’s in here.
Okay, so there it is. Real good box, too. It’ll hold up real good in that thing. It’s going to be
It’s going to be awesome. I told Mion about it and the man is still got it in his desk here.
I didn’t. That’s something I didn’t know. That’s something else.
pre-fabricated houses on Amazon.
No, I thought it was a great idea. But you got to have a place to put them though, Jimmy. Right.
Ah, but that’s the the ingenious part there, Chuck. I was running that through
my head. See, you could rent you could rent one of them lots, those trailer lots. Okay. They need to have all the
hookups for like 400 a month. That’s true. You know what I mean? B.
That sounds like a fairly smart idea. It’s better than getting a box in the uh at the post office
to live in. Oh, yeah. You can’t live in a post office box. So, it’s definitely better than that.
Oh, wait a minute. I talking about something else. Never mind. Take scratch that
the houses. Scratch that. I mean, I’d like to live in a post office box, honestly. No, no, you
wouldn’t, Aaron. You would not like to live in a post office box. I’ve seen people try.
I mean, there’s always people around the box that look like they’re living there. So, I mean,
certainly not a far cry, right? I don’t know. Hey, look, you you’re better off trying
to live in an old male truck, okay? As opposed to a just no. Yeah.
The LLV, what a wonderful vehicle.
Are you going to do that trick, Jimmy? You going to get one of these things and set it up at the uh at a park or
whatever.
And I’m doing some studying on it. It’s an option for the southern command.
I was like, all right, that could work out. I could have a
northern and southern command. There you go. two locations. I like it.
Well, very cool. Only thing I would advise is make sure you have a mailing address somewhere because, you know, not every uh trailer
lot allows you a mailing address now. They don’t weird. I don’t understand why. No,
like they have a mailing address for the whole park, but then you you don’t have an individual mailing address, which is
strange. Uh in some places. Yeah. Yeah. That’s That’s not good.
Wild. That isn’t good. There’s a lot of trouble,
man. There’s so many male issues. Like I never again like so many male issues and
they always come up on this show. Like this is like Uncle the Podcast is the place where
male goes just to go into total disarray. It is.
Yeah, it seems to. There’s always like like I was saying to Chuck, like there’s so many issues like
it’s like you like you’re saying, okay, we get something, we try to send it out
to people, but we can’t. Yeah, it’s something like that. That’s one of the things, man. But then
there’s so many other things, too. It’s a lot of stuff going on. Yeah, there a clip series called Uncle the
Mailbox. Yeah, for real. I think so.
Be a long show. Well, I can tell you that much. A long show. Yeah, a long show.
You okay, Uncle? You going to make it here? Yeah, I a little bit cough. Oh, yeah. The cough. I know. Yeah.
I don’t know what this talking. You’re not sure. Let me see. Tic tac. I
mean, we’re still streaming on the video things. It looks like we’re doing okay on the video.
It’s going out. Tic tac. Trying to see the tic tac monitor is still up. I can’t
tell how many people are there though. It’s hard to say. Tic tac. Everybody watch the videos. They’re very exciting.
Baseball cards. Oh, the burning cactus is up past 400,000 views for anybody who
cares. 400. Keeps climbing. Four over 400,000 now. Yeah. I’m hoping
it makes it past a million eventually. I think it could. The way it What is total now
on the channel as a whole? I know. I know. We are at like 512.
I can pass for some I’m pass to get to money. No. We’ve collected I think 17 cents maybe.
I think since we got like uh 10 more minutes left, you want me to let Danny back on the line now or
go ahead. Let him back on. Bring him in here. Bring him in. Bring him in. Yeah, we’ll let him back on and I’ll leave
Jimmy on, too. and you guys tell me what to do as we go and we’ll just work it from there until, you know, time runs
out. Okay, go ahead. What’s up, Danny?
What’s up, Danny? Uh, glad to be back. And um, yeah, I was
watch a rabbit hole one day at YouTube. It was a an American. He was a builder,
a contractor. My wife used to be in the construction industry and he went to China and he was talking
about these um these uh Chinese prefab homes. They were like kind of like a AUD
and he was talking about how well they built they were and they’re really getting it down and the affordability
order from China. So, uh, it was kind of it was it was an interesting interesting
if you want to live in a in a in a very inexpensive um high quality home.
Did you see any of those videos? Have you seen any of those? That familiar to you, Uncle, that kind of video?
I haven’t seen any of any of those what you guys are mentioning. I never seen
any of them. I know that I have. I’ve definitely seen He might have. Yeah. Sidekick might have, but not me. I I I
really didn’t all those crazy YouTube videos, especially the things like the kids watch. There’s a lot of the YouTubers
will be like, “I got this house for $1,000 on Teeu or whatever it is.” And
then they put it together and they use it for whatever their YouTube purposes are. I’ve definitely seen that at some
point. They seem like they’re kind of okay, maybe sometimes. So, if you if you
can make it work, like could be all right. Yeah, they don’t look too bad. the ones that I’ve seen on the videos
might work out. Okay. It was um you okay there, Uncle?
Well, we got 13 listeners. That’s getting up there. Yeah. 13 listeners. Not bad.
Not bad at all. It’s Let’s say it’s something. Not nothing. It’s something.
It’s something like Chuck didn’t have anybody. Yeah. And look at me. Popped up with 13
points. We’re we’re really something. Uncle the podcast that is.
And we feel good about it. Um Uncle, you know what? Why don’t we go straight to the shout outs with our two
callers because we are toward the end of the show and that’d be a good way to close it out. I think I think we’re at that point. Okay. Um it was Eddie first and then
