24:47
How do you pick them and, and, and what have you seen there, and where did you go?
EricGUEST
24:51
Well, the first thing that happens when we're talking about a trip is we just talk about generally what part of the country we wanna go to and what kind of experience we want to have.
EricGUEST
25:01
You know, last time we went to two medium-sized cities with a tiny town in between, and that was great.
EricGUEST
25:07
And this time we...
EricGUEST
25:08
I really wanted smaller hill towns in the provinces north of Rome, and the regions are, that we went to are called Lazio and Umbria.
EricGUEST
25:19
And I just wanted to experience these little towns with a lot of history, Roman and Etruscan history, to walk around and experience.
EricGUEST
25:27
And so once we decide on the nature of the trip, Bella does all the research.

20 MINS LATER

45:53
Having that extra connection just adds one more layer of complexity where I absolutely understand why people don't want to do that.
speaker_1UNKNOWN
8:57
Take a deep breath.
EricGUEST
8:58
Near hyperventilating, and her first thought is, "Where are the kids? Are the kids okay?" And through that whole video, Corey said, "My kids are in that room, and one of them's listening," but n- never did she move to go comfort those kids.
speaker_7UNKNOWN
10:04
Prosecutors also presented evidence of something accessed on Corey's cellphone that morning, these GIFs seemingly celebrating coming into money.
EricGUEST
10:14
I thought the GIFs were really odd.
EricGUEST
10:16
If she was the one that pulled them up, which it certainly seems like that is the case, that's just more evidence of her state of mind at the time.
40:19
Eric, what do you have to say?
EricGUEST
40:23
Oh, not a lot.
EricGUEST
40:30
Um, I, I've become more skilled at seeing I'm suffering when I'm thinking about the future, uh, and but my practice doesn't always feel like, uh, it's bringing me out of my suffering when I come back to the present.
40:57
[laughs]
EricGUEST
40:59
Yeah.
EricGUEST
41:01
I've been considering that.
EricGUEST
41:02
I, I've, uh, I've been in AA.
EricGUEST
41:05
I've had a few sponsors there and, uh, I'm 14 years sober and, uh...
SteveHOST
33:55
I assume that's why this is a sequel to Top Gun, because he's been a fighter pilot for so goddamn long he doesn't know anything about cars, but he's like, "I just gotta go fast, and motorcycles just aren't doing it for me."
EricGUEST
34:04
But you know what I appreciate about this movie though? It's for every scene like the bar scene that is, let's say, a little bit more serious or a little bit more dramatic or a little bit more intimate, there is some sort of comedy that comes right behind it.
EricGUEST
34:20
So what they did here is they gave you a little bit of exposition.
EricGUEST
34:22
They told you Tom Cruise doesn't know shit about cars, and Robert Duvall's like, "Oh, okay.
EricGUEST
34:26
Yeah, all right.
EricGUEST
34:27
I got you, sucker." And they go into that very next race, and he's out there and he's running like crap.
EricGUEST
34:33
Robert Duvall gets on the radio and he's like, "I just need to tell you you are match perfect and staggered special." And he's like, "What?" He's like, "The tires, they are match perfect and staggered special." And he's just making shit up, complete bull crap.

49 MINS LATER

speaker_7UNKNOWN
83:55
Yeah.
MattHOST
12:03
I don't wanna play this game anymore.
EricGUEST
12:04
Don't you dare.
EricGUEST
12:05
[sad trombone] Sam.
MattHOST
12:25
[laughs]
EricGUEST
12:25
You think that you're, you're picking ants on the playground while I stand above you.
EricGUEST
12:33
Do not, do not tempt me.
4:38
Wow
EricGUEST
4:38
...
EricGUEST
4:38
Tyler, who, who has been bringing me into movies for the past, like, more than 20 years now, uh, he moved into the same apartment building that I was living in, and he was my neighbor, which was amazing times for us.
EricGUEST
4:50
Amazing times.
EricGUEST
4:52
So I would come over to his house, and he would just pop a movie in and showed me all of the, the classics.
EricGUEST
4:59
And he said, "Let's get into, uh, Hitchcock." And it started with Psycho, and it fucking blew my mind.
EricGUEST
5:06
That was the first time I ever saw, like, um, like a mind fuck thriller.

1 HR 53 MINS LATER

DanHOST
118:39
Squeeze a chair right there.
0:12
So first of all, Eric, uh, tell everybody how you met Aubrey.
EricGUEST
0:16
Aubrey and I have known each other for a few years.
EricGUEST
0:18
We worked together as servers.
EricGUEST
0:20
I found out she was single maybe, like, two-ish months ago, and that felt like a good enough time between, so I decided to, like, nut up and ask her out.
0:44
But you finally found that window, and it worked.
EricGUEST
0:47
Yeah, and I...
EricGUEST
0:47
You know, I wanted it to be, like, really chill and low pressure.
EricGUEST
0:51
So I asked her to come out with a group of us, and we went to Lone Star Smokeout.
40:46
I think it exposed a lot of good things to people.
EricGUEST
40:49
Well, yeah.
EricGUEST
40:49
I think by nature, it, um, the human ear is attuned to the human voice.
EricGUEST
40:54
And, um, when you have a voice that is not buried in the mix but you can latch onto, it, it makes the music more identifiable.
EricGUEST
41:02
You can relate to it as a human, I think, just, just on some subconscious level.
EricGUEST
41:07
But I...
EricGUEST
41:08
You know, Jason's voice has changed a lot over the years, and this was, like, a, a really cool snapshot of what his voice was like, um, during this time, and I, I love it.

1 HR 9 MINS LATER

110:20
Mm.
59:58
Yeah
EricGUEST
59:59
... um, and, and, and, and Invisible Kid too, and, and he fight, uh, because, you know, uh, he wants them to stay with him instead of saying, "Hey, I want to go back with you." You know, whatever.
EricGUEST
60:09
Um, but then he realizes, uh, uh...
EricGUEST
60:13
I'm looking at, at 299.
EricGUEST
60:14
This is page 16.
EricGUEST
60:15
"You're not leaving.
EricGUEST
60:16
I'll, I'll kill you if I have..." And then he, and then Lyle stops and says, "What in God's name am I saying? I'm, I'm really sorry, mister.
JayHOST
63:27
And you just go with this is more of a torture of Jac- uh, Jacques, and then a torture of, of Wildfire as well.
MarieHOST
11:02
Agreed.
EricGUEST
11:03
I don't know why this is.
EricGUEST
11:06
I have read lots of things.
EricGUEST
11:08
I have heard lots of stories.
EricGUEST
11:11
I don't understand it.
EricGUEST
11:12
But, uh, our former social media manager at, uh, Concierears asked me to take a video from...
EricGUEST
11:22
She's like, "Can you just take a, a total video of the entire Disneyland Railroad?" And I got stuck into a corner where I was next to the wall facing forward, so I took a video [laughs] of the left side of everything.

43 MINS LATER

MarieHOST
54:40
It's like an ASR episode.
19:56
[laughs] The people loved his submission more than Pat and our team did, though, so let's give him another crack to flex more than just his wedding vows, puppy wins, and those pretty eyes.
EricGUEST
20:05
All right.
EricGUEST
20:05
What's going on, everybody? It's Best Ball Guy, AKA BBG.
20:12
We viciously booted BBG off our After Dark stream to set up the Emo Cowboy versus Rick showdown.
EricGUEST
20:18
I'm doing my own version of chasing Corrain, where I'm, I'm working my way up the ladder.
EricGUEST
20:22
I go Maddock.
EricGUEST
20:23
We go Pete.
7:27
Yeah.
EricGUEST
7:28
Like, they can, like, like, there's, there's one right now, a crew cab, that was at Autorama, you know, that we did, and it just looked phenomenal all together, you know? And it, and it's, I don't wanna say budget, 'cause it's not, it's still not cheap, but-

14 MINS LATER

21:29
Mm-hmm
EricGUEST
21:29
... a lot of time...
EricGUEST
21:30
Like, we just did a repair for a new customer we have up in Cincinnati, and it came out pretty good.
EricGUEST
21:35
So I, I, I even ordered the leather, like, perforated, you know, already.
EricGUEST
21:39
Um, so it, we just had to do a boxing and bolster and insert, I think-
18:47
Yeah
EricGUEST
18:47
... about things.
EricGUEST
18:48
Uh, I know that at my school, uh, we're encouraged that if a lesson didn't go well or if we feel that our learning style doesn't match with our instructor's style, that we can go to the front desk.
EricGUEST
19:01
Uh, we can if we don't feel comfortable talking to our instructor directly, and they'll help us find an instructor who might have a style that better matches.
19:21
And then what do you do in those moments?
EricGUEST
19:25
Um, well, I don't resign.
EricGUEST
19:27
[laughs] I keep pushing at it, and, um, I'll usually try to look for the answers in other places.
EricGUEST
19:34
My first place is usually go to my peers or to my instructors, other people that are in my community.
PhilGUEST
8:17
Go ahead.
EricGUEST
8:17
Yeah, I'll go first 'cause, you know, I've actually pre- uh, pr- prepped answers here.
EricGUEST
8:22
Um, you literally just said pr- basically what I, what I have written down here as reason number one, which is heavy reliance on the pieces of the team that were working caught up to them.
EricGUEST
8:35
And, uh, that ju- it just, they lost steam.
EricGUEST
8:38
Like, uh, the Sha- Schafer hot out the gates, tapers off towards the Olympic break.
EricGUEST
8:45
Great coming back from the Olympic break, hot again, and, and s- stayed pretty hot.
EricGUEST
8:50
Like, him and Ritchie led the team in points, uh, down the stretch.

15 MINS LATER

JackHOST
24:18
Who was the most underrated contributor for this team?
NikkiGUEST
27:29
Can you hand me my water bottle?
EricGUEST
27:30
Yeah.
EricGUEST
27:31
Um, it, it seems like a lot of them, you know, it's, it's really hard to tell.
EricGUEST
27:36
It could be oars, but I'm pretty sure this one, just from the distance, it, to me, in my gut, it seemed like it was a UFO.
EricGUEST
27:43
'Cause you look at like a star, um...
EricGUEST
27:45
Yeah, you can go.
EricGUEST
27:46
It's like...

10 MINS LATER

NikkiGUEST
37:23
Totally.
3:15
[laughs]
EricGUEST
3:15
E- uh, my name's Eric.
EricGUEST
3:17
Uh, I'm, uh, the local dog trainer.
EricGUEST
3:19
Um, I look after dogs of all sizes, not just small dogs.
EricGUEST
3:23
Um, though, you know, I'm, I am partial to a good chihuahua.
EricGUEST
3:26
I do like them.
EricGUEST
3:27
They're pretty feisty.

6 MINS LATER

9:52
Smart to be out of mind.
30:52
Yep
EricGUEST
30:53
Elanco was spun out about eight years ago, and then we were spun out of Elanco four years ago.
EricGUEST
30:58
So it's an example of, again, the innovation that starts in a large company, and then at some point you have opportunities where you can take part of the pipeline-
31:24
Okay.
EricGUEST
31:24
It is gonna be a livestock product, but we've got several pet health products in the pipeline as well.
EricGUEST
31:30
And we are very much an innovation driven company.
EricGUEST
31:34
So the idea is to, again, raise venture capital funds, use those funds to prosecute the pipeline, continue to innovate and create additional jobs and opportunities-
13:29
Give us every last detail that comes to mind.
EricGUEST
13:32
Sure.
EricGUEST
13:33
Um, I remember this one time we were coming from...
EricGUEST
13:37
I was taking my friend to a, um, to his girlfriend's.
EricGUEST
13:40
We were going down there.
EricGUEST
13:42
They were having a couple drinks and stuff, and I was being the designated driver bringing him back, 'cause I really don't drink.
EricGUEST
13:49
I gave up on alcohol.

23 MINS LATER

speaker_6ADVERTISER
36:24
See mondellopark.ie.
31:49
Did you have to get a visa?
EricGUEST
31:50
Yeah, I had a work visa and a passport and all that.
EricGUEST
31:54
And, uh, on this one stay, uh, it was about a month almost, I, I just wanted to go home.
EricGUEST
32:02
I had enough of it.
EricGUEST
32:05
When you h- come into the country, you give your passport and your visa to the passport agent.
EricGUEST
32:13
They stamp 'em and they hand 'em back to you, and you're on your merry way.
EricGUEST
32:17
Well, I'm on my way back to the airport after working for a month, and a police officer in Mexico stands out in the lane, puts his hand out to halt my car.

25 MINS LATER

57:41
Mm-hmm
27:53
So anything you could tell me to help me get to the truth would be really, um, greatly appreciated.
EricGUEST
28:00
Call me back on the recorded time that they blew up and how much I missed 4:11, glory and power be to God.

6 MINS LATER

34:15
I, I wanna go back to what you said about the shock.
EricGUEST
34:17
Oh, the lightning from God? That the terrorists put the explosive there so that God could hit it at 4:11, glory and power be to God?
GregHOST
25:32
They come by and say, "Hey, man, it's real- I love your headset, but boy, if it had this..." And th- that's what you do at these events, right?
EricGUEST
25:38
Exactly, and that's why we ex- uh, redesigned the ear seals for the Zulu 4, and that's what you're probably noticing, Dennis.
EricGUEST
25:44
They're framed fit ear seals with dual density foam, so they fit even better with thick stems on your glasses, or your caps, or your hats while you're flying.
EricGUEST
25:54
You know, we wanna...
EricGUEST
25:55
You know, everybody wants a comfortable headset, and now we can prove that we have a comfortable headset because of those framed fit ear seals on the Zulu 4.
GregHOST
30:09
in the pipeline, I know, with you guys.
EricGUEST
30:11
There's always something.
EricGUEST
30:12
There's always customer feedback, so we're always working and developing on new things, and I tell you guys this almost every time we talk.
JohnHOST
162:55
Everybody else loved this match apparently.
EricGUEST
162:57
I liked it, but uh, I went three and a half.
EricGUEST
163:00
I can't go too high on it because I thought they were working at a pretty good pace, but then they completely like fell off the wagon around like the 20, 25-minute mark and I just com- I just lost interest.
EricGUEST
163:10
[laughs] Like it sh- it slowed down so dramatically and that's kinda when I was like, "Oh, they're doing a time limit draw." Um, the final minutes I thought were really good.
EricGUEST
163:18
Like there was a lot of drama in those final few minutes.
EricGUEST
163:20
Like if you look at the crowd in those closing stretches, there's like so many girls with like their hand over their mouths.
EricGUEST
163:24
Like Anzai's obviously really popular.

16 MINS LATER

JohnHOST
179:38
Sure
12:56
Um, so what, [laughs] what's your Disney story with your, with, you know, yourself, your kids, all that stuff that gets you listening to a Disney podcast?
EricGUEST
13:03
Yeah.
EricGUEST
13:04
So I, I grew up in the '80s, um, and I was always, you know, I always watched the Disney Channel and, you know, growing up and, um, the movies obviously.
EricGUEST
13:16
Um, but the thing that really got me was, I wanna say probably around my son's age, I think I want, you know, around 11 or 12, um, my fathe- my late grandfather, grandmother, uh, my, my, my mom, uh, my brother and I, we all went to Disney World for the first time and, uh, you know, just visiting the parks.
EricGUEST
13:38
You know, you know, probably the listeners know, you know, when you're there, you know, you can't really describe that, just that magical feeling, um, of course being together on vacation.
EricGUEST
13:48
Um, e- e- ever since...
EricGUEST
13:50
And I think that was the first time I was ever on an airplane.

16 MINS LATER

30:16
... game shows, stuff like that?
90:07
Hmm
EricGUEST
90:07
... as I approached.
EricGUEST
90:09
And now, it wouldn't happen every time.
EricGUEST
90:11
Um, it happened a handful of times.
EricGUEST
90:14
Um, and I just kinda figured, you know, maybe it's reading my, you know, I'm casting a shadow on some sensor and it's reading that.
EricGUEST
90:23
Um, but I remember specifically one time I stormed out of the house upset about something, and I got a couple of blocks from the house and I, um, I don't know if I did it, but I noticed that there was probably three or four lights in a row.
EricGUEST
90:43
I walked three to four blocks in a row with the light, would-
91:34
Mm-hmm.
37:11
Yeah
EricGUEST
37:12
...
EricGUEST
37:12
I think we're about to go through, and I don't know how long this is gonna take, but I think Bitcoin has to move through the state in this fiat system that we have.
EricGUEST
37:23
I think that we're gonna see a lot of, of potentially FUD, um, skewed incentives to corral people into the layer twos, ETFs, potentially onus reporting requirements to keep Bitcoin in self-custody.
EricGUEST
37:37
Um, and then you have the global game theory taking place.
EricGUEST
37:40
I think we might end up in a position where, you know, the United States just invaded Venez- Venezuela.
EricGUEST
37:46
Trump's talking about taking over Greenland, so I, I do see this, this consolidation of power, and that, as Simon Dixon says, the, uh...

7 MINS LATER

45:05
Um, what have you learned outside of Bitcoin since your last podcast appearance? I think it's about a year, uh, ago that you have been on my podcast.
