Joe: Everything's pumpkin.

DeJah: Given that we've all had our pumpkin spice since May. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah. Yeah. I don't even like pumpkin spice PSLs. Mm-hmm. I like pastries. Pastries that are pumpkin spice. I do not like the drinks, the powder drinks though.

[00:01:00] Starbucks drinks though. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Jen: I like pumpkin pie. Mm-hmm. And I like pumpkin, some pumpkin beers. Mm-hmm. But yeah. No, don't like the pumpkin spice lattes. No, no. Well, I guess they just took our basic white bitch cards. Yep. So, yep.

DeJah: Somebody ever threatens, I'm gonna take away your pumpkin spice. I'll be like, woo.

You go right ahead.

Jen: Yeah. Well, I otherwise, aside from pumpkin spice lattes, I do love all things fall. My absolutely. Welcome, welcome, Ramblers

DeJah: to what? We're pretending it's fall. We're gonna say it. Oh, sorry. Gosh, dang it.

Jen: But yeah, fall some weather we're having Yeah, about that weather, about that. Cowboys are losing. I can probably safely say that.

Joe: Fast forward, we can't use this because there's like some terrible flood or something. Oh my God. Are we the

DeJah: [00:02:00] Simpsons? Yeah. No doubt, no doubt. Get my sage to get macaroni outta here. Get outta here, guy. Yeah.

Joe: All right, so you guys ready for the the fall? Quiz

DeJah: to apparently We're Joe, we have a, we have a, we have a fall quiz.

Let's test quiz. We're gonna, alright. Alright. So yeah, so we're testing your, your ledge rolling right in to our fall themed. Yes, yes, yes. Yeah. Mm-hmm. And we

Jen: didn't know we were, it's, we didn't study.

Joe: It's gonna be multiple choice and you guys gotta keep, screw yourself 'cause that's my math I can't handle.

Okay. And please feel free to play along at home.

Jen: Oh, are we bringing KC Kon back or chip buttons? Chip buttons, yes. About that. You were Chip, chip Casey. Then back to Chip and then Chase Casey. I'll try to do chip buttons.

Joe: Starbucks launched its pumpkin Spice latte In what year? I can kinda do that. Okay.

Yeah, you do. So is it was it when Pumpkin Spice Latte launched 91 2003. Or 2015. [00:03:00] Oh

DeJah: man. Like 2003. I think I was

Jen: gonna go oh three as well.

DeJah: Mm-hmm. Locked in. Sure.

Jen: Alright. You guys both got it

Joe: right? Oh, hey. Sound effects. I got a whole board here and stuff. Wait, hold on. Time out. There we go. Alright. You know you can make

Jen: labels or do you?

No. 'cause you're looking at something when

Joe: you do that. There's, it's, it's a whole thing. It's complicated. I understand.

DeJah: I'm I, I'm just gonna go ahead and throw. Yeah, welcome to ramblings of a Restless Mind. We've we've rambled before we actually included the name of the show or really started, but now we're gonna circle back to the game that we're already in.

Jen: And with that chance for, thanks for joining us.

Joe: If

DeJah: you're just tuning in,

Joe: just not possible you didn't skip the first 10 minutes. Alright, question number two, true or false, there is pumpkin Spice flavored spam. Yes, it's true.

Jen: She seems very confident, so I'm gonna say true as well. Well,

Joe: certainty. Yes, [00:04:00] it's true.

Ugh, in 2019 they made it and it sold out in seven hours. Yes. Holy. What is

DeJah: Dev? They're D with people, spam fans. They're devouted people who love that shit and, but,

Jen: but do they know what it is? Well, yeah.

DeJah: Or no? Does anyone know what it's, it's a magical meat mixture. Sure.

Jen: Yes. Yes. Ugh. Mm-hmm. Well, I'm gonna hard pass on that.

You know what, I'm gonna add that to. The other thing of fall that I don't like is pumpkin spice. I'm, I'm spam. I bet

DeJah: your mom is really disappointed in your spam knowledge, given that isn't the spam museum in Iowa.

Jen: I don't dunno. Joe, look it up.

Joe: Spam Museum, Iowa. Internet. It doesn't, it doesn't know. The internet doesn't know it's I would've guessed Hawaii. Speaking of states, next question. You know how sometimes there's laws that you're like, why do they have laws and why do some states [00:05:00] don't? This is one of those questions. Yes? Mm-hmm. In what US state? Is it illegal to throw pumpkins at moving vehicles? Massachusetts a, Maine, is it Maine, B, Wisconsin, or C?

All of them. But actually Maine had to pass a law.

So is it Maine, Wisconsin, or all of them. But actually Maine had to pass a law.

DeJah: It is illegal to throw anything at a moving vehicle. Right. But yes, that, I'm sure. Sure. It would say all of did. Yeah. It's, it's all of them. But Maine had to pass a law. That's because some asshole teenagers would not stop. It's, that's why I'm like, this sounds like a northern thing.

Joe: Yeah. They got really into pumpkin chunking. You remember that show? Oh, hell yeah.

DeJah: Where they were building re and stuff. Yes, because it could have been Wisconsin. I was pumpkin chunking in Wisconsin, so I was, I had to think on that for a minute.

Joe: Yeah.

DeJah: Yeah.

Joe: I've never chunked a punk.

DeJah: Oh yeah. They put, they make catapults.

They, they get seen full on [00:06:00] into it, man. Seen. Yeah. Mm-hmm. You guys ever pumpkin with potato guns? People really get into their potato gun design. I like t-shirt shooting guns. There's not a lot to do in the winter. Yeah. Guys like you

Jen: really gotta get into your hobby. You gotta stay warm. Yep. You gotta move, you gotta stay warm.

Yeah.

Joe: Yeah. I grew up in Michigan. Potato guns were a thing. Yeah. We were always building them.

Jen: I

Joe: they're bad ideas.

Jen: They are bad ideas, but they were always being built. It's basically

Joe: a vegetable bazooka.

Jen: Yes. So it's go through used for shooting t-shirts, right? Yeah. Essentially. I've always wonder if to one of those, mm-hmm.

I probably would've liked a potato. Again,

DeJah: they can literally be dangerous though. It's the raw power.

Jen: Mm-hmm. You know, something else I'm not really a fan of in fault. Actually doing the corn maze.

DeJah: Oh yeah, yeah. Pass. No. A nice hayride. Sure. But I don't wanna wander through the corn. No, I'm like, because you know what guys?

I'm gonna let you guys in on a little secret. I've never really told anybody this. I'm afraid of the children of the corn.

Jen: Listen, those will just are [00:07:00] creepy. Walk out those corn stalks well. I'm from Iowa, so does that make me a child of the corn?

DeJah: Do you, do you without, without sand, without sound and or like humanity just drift in and outta corn fields.

My sleepwalking. Okay,

Jen: okay. Okay, good. But otherwise, I think, like, I've done one and I was with it was my dad actually, he was in town and he was very dead set on like. We're gonna conquer this and together very fast kind of thing. And to his credit, he's, he's always been very good with directions naturally. And I was like, this looks like the same corn we just passed.

Like, I don't, so I think like in theory they're kind of fun. Mm-hmm. Or about for about like two minutes. They're fun and then you're like, how do I get around?

DeJah: And this is what a technology brain. Is responding too, because corn mazes were the fucking shit back in the day, man. Everybody. [00:08:00] That was your entertainment in the year.

Imagine that. Yeah. All the entertainment and everything we have now and we're talking about, yeah, a corn maze is like, yeah. Back then they were like, oh my god, guys. We've been talking about it for six months. Yeah, I

Joe: agree on the hard pass for all corn mazes, but they were cool when I was a kid. Yeah. But as an adult, I'm like, I'd rather do anything else

Jen: because as a kid you don't have that fear complex of like mm-hmm.

Oh, I might get stuck in here and come out, put some pool in the

Joe: middle. Maybe I'm a zombie.

Jen: Yeah,

Joe: like a nice bourbon bar. Yeah.

DeJah: Also,

Joe: yeah. Right. I'll find that thing.

DeJah: If you have asshole cousins, you know, like you're trying to find your way and you're scared or whatever, and you get an asshole cousin that's like that Cheats.

Yeah, cheats, yeah. And like sets up like to scare

Jen: you or something. Oh, it's a bastard. Yeah. Or like the scary corn mazes, you know, I used to like going into like scary houses, you know, and then something na changed. Just, just me, just you cannot see Deja,

Joe: but she's having big arm feelings and punching the [00:09:00] air.

I,

Jen: no, no. Yeah, I, I, I used to, 'cause I was just like, this stuff is so, I know it's not real. And so I would just laugh at it. Right. And then I don't know what changed, but in grad school, whenever I went to London. We there a group of us were gonna go to, like at the underneath the Tower of London, they have like a, at the time they had like a, a scary, like, you know, haunt.

Mm-hmm. That sounds cool. And as we're getting ready to start walking through it, like, I literally started having like a panic attack. Oh. All of a sudden I was like, I don't know why, but this doesn't funny tummy feelings. This doesn't feel right. Mm-hmm. So I bailed and waited and I, I finally calmed down.

But for some reason, even though I had always enjoyed them, I don't know if it was London and 'cause it seemed real, I don't really know, but I bailed. I don't. Dude, you know, I know what it is. I think was in

Joe: London. 'cause it was a Jack the Ripper thing

DeJah: she walked through a ghost was you walked through a ghost down in the depths where Jack the Ripper had killed it.

Do you know how many people, bodies and ghosts and shit are in there? Yeah. I point Jack the Ripper

Jen: tour when I was in London. Did you? That was very ghost ghosty stuff to you and get a bad vibe. Was Jack the

Joe: Ripper thing? Which would be scary 'cause it actually happened. It doesn't feel made up. Yeah. Like when some like [00:10:00] guy with a weird mask chasing with you.

Chainsaw. It's like, yeah,

DeJah: yeah.

Joe: But it's like you're like,

Jen: take up woodworking,

DeJah: not me.

Jen: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know. The Jack the Ripper tour. Jack The Ripper tour was that was very cool. And it was at night. Totally been down for, so they took us and showed us all the spots and I had read Patricia Cornwell's book about Jack the River Death and stuff.

Same. Yeah. Love that book. And so I was so intrigued. And then they end it at this very, very, very old church that only has like. The front stone panel remaining and the cemetery behind it. And so they have you, the, the guy, like the tour guide had, you know, his little speaker mm-hmm. That sits on his chest as he's walking us around.

And he had us walk through, like under the archway of the, the one piece of the old church that was still remaining and then we're, and it just got cool and like very foggy naturally that night because it's always raining. And so anyway, and so the scene was just set and he's just in the cemetery and that's where he ends it, like telling the story about Jack, the riff and everything.

And then he leaves. And so we're all just. [00:11:00] That they're like, so who's escorting us home? Because now we're

DeJah: all freaked out. But it was very, very cool. Yeah, I left. Sounds amazing. I wanna go back

Jen: anyway, we just blew up your whole quiz, Joe. Oh no. So what's the next one?

Joe: That is the whole point of this show.

That's right. Yep. Yep. We are ramblings. And speaking of rambling, next question. True or false? This is a yard pair question. You know, it's that time of year the leaves are falling. I remember the first time I bought a leaf blower feeling like I got superpowers versus a rake. Yes. Not the first week leaf blower I got where it couldn't blow the wet leaf.

I,

DeJah: my middle aged self feels that so hard right now. Absolutely. When

Joe: I

DeJah: get that

Joe: backpack one I bought, oh, that's got that big motor unit I started and it's, listen, you've made. You've made it and you've crossed the stream with your neighbor at the same time, like if you happen to be outside, your power's combined.

I mean, it's like a Captain Planet thing. The leaves just go, they go back on the tree and turn green. Yeah,

DeJah: it's amazing. It's amazing. It's fantastic.

Joe: [00:12:00] Anyways, question true or false? Leaf blowers were originally invented to spray chemicals, not blow leaves. Oh,

Jen: I, I would say true.

DeJah: Yeah, that sounds right, that the original theory would've be to poison something.

Mm-hmm. Pesticides. Yep. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. That's true. Yeah. They were

Joe: originally to kill mosquitoes.

DeJah: That makes sense. To kill mosquitoes. Mm-hmm. Yep.

Joe: Alright. It's Halloween season. Yes. What we're getting there, what candy was originally called Chicken feet. Is it a chicken feet? Is it a. Candy court. I felt like I had a small stroke.

I didn't mean to repeat it. It just happened. A candy cord. B Reese's pieces. C circus penis. Peanuts. Peanuts. Circus. Peanuts.

DeJah: Do you wanna try it one more time?

Joe: You guys got that

DeJah: candy [00:13:00] or C? Yes, I do have my circus penis chicken

Joe: feed.

DeJah: Oh, it's gotta be candy, corn. Yeah. Any porn. Yeah,

Joe: you're right. I don't

DeJah: know.

That's an easy question. Mm-hmm. Stupid question. Chad Uhhuh. But I am intrigued by circus penis. Yeah. That's gonna be stuck in my craw for a long time now. Circus penis.

Joe: I don't know if there's any good questions left. I'm skimming them here. All right. Rapid fire pick one. Best fall smell bonfire apple pie.

Wet dog, gasoline, pumpkin patch, bonfire

Jen: apple pie. You win.

DeJah: I changed my answer to decay.

Joe: Oh man. Yeah. What did you guys do when you were young? Like what was fall for you? You said, hay ride earlier. I'm allergic to hay. Hated them, but I'd go on 'em anyways. You hay them.

What was a cool thing to do in fall when [00:14:00] you were like, you know, 15 years old? Smoke cigarettes behind a barn. Like most everybody that grew up in RH was like, go to the woods and make a fire.

DeJah: Yeah. Literally, because that's all there was to do. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Burn weird shit inside fire. Yeah.

Jen: I think for me, I mean, 'cause it was, my brother played football and I was a cheerleader and so fall was just very football and football games.

Yeah. I mean, our school was. A whole acting crew away from being varsity blues. Like to the colors. Like on Friday nights, that's where everybody was. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Country. That's every little

DeJah: town. Oh hell yes. Yeah. Yeah. Blue

Jen: and the silver and the white.

DeJah: Yeah. Love that movie though. I love that we are best friends because.

I was the kid in black who refused to go to any of that shit. Like

Jen: area gone.

Joe: Exactly, exactly. You were at the football game or you were in the parking lot? Smoking.

DeJah: Fuck yeah. I was under the [00:15:00] bleachers. Look at these news with the people on it. Yeah.

Jen: Show

DeJah: them.

Jen: Yeah, so I, I, I do equate football or fall with football.

Oh, oh, a hundred

DeJah: percent.

Jen: Yep. And that was, I don't know, the cool thing to do. And then, but like before, I was on the varsity cheerleading squad on jv, then we played on 30 Thursday nights, but my brother was. On varsity. And so then I was like cheerleading at the game Thursday night. And then on Friday I had to pick my really cute outfit so I could walk around and, you know, you just move down the fence, like right outside the track.

Like, you know, you, you talk to some people leaning against the fence, like you're watching the game. Oh yeah. You know, then you move to another little cluster of friends, you know, rather a concessions and Oh, yeah. A hundred

DeJah: percent the little

Jen: clicky click, click, click, click, click. Yep. Round and round.

Yep. I, that was a place to be there. I

Joe: just had a real strong memory of being a football game. Always buying those fun dips. Remember that little piece of white garbage that you would lick and then stick in the powder? I did. I did love the concessions, man. I love fun, love. I still love fun

Jen: Dip I haven't had in a long time, but man,

DeJah: I'm pretty sure I'm high.

A [00:16:00] fun dip right now,

Joe: like watch me blow through a bag of powder HA fun gift, fun death.

Jen: Which flavor the kids

Joe: are calling it these days. Which flavor

Jen: was your, your favorite? Grape was mine. Grape?

Joe: Yeah. It's be great. The other thing I would often get at the concession stands at the football games was Big League Chew. Oh. Oh.

That shredded bubblegum nonsense. Yeah. I love that stuff When I was little kid and I played softball. Hell yeah. So much flavor for so little time. Absolutely.

DeJah: So much jaw pain. Yes. Just locked out. Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah. I don't know. Delicious. Delightful. Yeah, Joe. I mean, see we're, I mean, Joe, then we don't, you know, up north you don't get a lot of fall.

Yeah. It's like summer and then it's cold. Oh, hey. And then the leaves change, and then it's fucking snow and cold like there. Yeah's not a, the leaves change

Joe: because it snowed.

DeJah: Yeah, exactly. There's snow. Yeah. There's literally already snow before. Yeah. Yeah. It's a fact here in North Carolina, it's like

Joe: a season.

They're like, come on out and drive through. It's beautiful. Mm-hmm. I [00:17:00] know, because

DeJah: already, I mean, it starts to snow at the beginning of October, so. Yeah.

Jen: I also, I also got to have a birthday in the fall. Yeah. So that's probably my coolest thing. Mm-hmm. I got to do

Joe: that was the birthday party. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I think it was bonfires, man.

Oh yeah, absolutely. Fires were great. Mm-hmm. Your clothes stank. But you didn't care. No. 'cause you were out late and you could put, you could

DeJah: put 'em, put 'em back on and go to a bonfire. Nobody knows.

Jen: I do think like high school parties, like they always were like in the cut somewhere with mm-hmm. You know, a bonfire and stuff and, you know, different scenario areas.

That's right. Don't have those. I

DeJah: just, I'm just. Relishing thinking about bonfires, zimas,

Joe: jolly Rancher. That's over, man. We don't let kids do that anymore. I remember my, my daughter got invited to a party after a football game and my wife was following her on Life 360 and they were going to a bonfire in the woods and she was like, oh no, they're not, you're not going to a bonfire in the wood call.[00:18:00]

Yeah. We we spoil kids. We don't let 'em do stuff anymore. Yeah. That's, that's not good.

DeJah: No, because they then they, they just live in fear.

Joe: Or as soon as they get to college, they're gonna go nuts. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

DeJah: Yep. Mm-hmm. Yep. Yeah. No, you gotta gotta try some stuff. You gotta experience some things.

You gotta let 'em live a little life. Yeah. Get a little bump of bruise. Why is it like eat a little

Joe: dirt? Why is it like one of our favorite genres of movie, like the eighties, nineties, coming of age stories and yet none of us want that for our kids. Yeah, I know, right?

There's so many great movies from that era where it's like kids getting up to nonsense from Goonies to et. Mm-hmm. And like, whatever, know, it was like, I wouldn't, no, we'd be tracking them.

Jen: Yeah. Well, because we, we were doing stupid shit back in the eighties and nineties, so it was totally relatable.

DeJah: Like God just, yeah.

All the forts, all the things, all the, oh my goodness. You don't think that I've [00:19:00] built catapults?

Yeah.

Joe: Yeah.

DeJah: Good times, good times, good times. Good times are ahead by all. Yeah.

Joe: Mm-hmm. We tried cow tipping once. I remember. It's not a real thing. Oh yeah. I don't think you can do it. You can. Yes,

DeJah: you can.

Jen: Yep. So my, where my parents lived, like they, it's been more developed now, but there used to be like cows and stuff like kind of around and behind their property, not theirs.

They were a neighbors. Honestly, I didn't know they were a neighbors until in high school, for whatever reason. Me and one of my friends decided to go out there and chase the cows. And then the neighbor comes running from running across the street, stop chasing my cows. You're toughening up the meat. And I didn't know what the hell was going on

Joe: eating

Jen: them tomorrow, like that's so

DeJah: funny.

Jen: And I didn't know that was a thing. And that day I learned that one that. That neighbor owned those cows and that that you can, you don't wanna run cows 'cause it's a little toughen up the meat. Yeah,

DeJah: that's, I don't know if that's a thing, but you definitely can tip a cow now it's gonna take more than [00:20:00] one person and you're gonna, you kinda wanna make sure you've got some grade.

That's at your advantage. So they, they will go down 'cause they are sleeping, standing up. So Yeah, yeah, yeah. Poor cow. Poor cow.

Joe: I remember we had tried once and failed and my buddy David Provost, who's my neighbor, great guy. Shout out David. Shout out David, I'm sure you're listening. We lost touch 40 years ago or whatever it was, but great guy.

Super good friend and we failed and I think we saw like a porch light or something and we thought, oh no, somebody might care about these cows. And so we just started running. Yes. And David he was like one of those guys in like sixth grade that had a six pack, like we was state wrestling champion.

Yeah. Yep. And I was like 42 pounds, but he was my friend and he protected me. Yeah. But so he takes off sprinting and I'm like, don't do the best, my version of sprinting. And he got wrapped up. They, they had the particular electric fence where it was just like two sticks coming outta the ground. Yeah.

And one wire. Mm-hmm. And that's enough to keep a cow in. Yep. But David being like [00:21:00] buff at, in sixth grade, pulled out the two things and got wrapped in the fence that he is on the ground like

Jen: David, Joe. No, I'm like I to do, I can't help If I touch you, if I touch you, I duck too. Oh my God.

Joe: Oh my God. I don't remember how it resolved, but I remember later that night, he is like, man, I

Jen: feel like I've just been in a fight.

DeJah: Oh my gosh. Adrenaline pumping. That's hilarious. Because damn, he took some current know, right? Like shit, because if you've touched an electric fence, it's not funny. You ain't going back like yeah, everybody's, that's why they only need one tiny little line because a cow, like all you gotta do is you feel this shit.

Once you're like, oh, alright, well come on. If you live

Joe: by one, you tried it. You know what it feels like you

DeJah: did. Absolutely.

Joe: Yeah, it feels like, like one 10. Mm-hmm. Like the voltage from a mm-hmm. Getting shocked. Mm-hmm. Well, Joe, do we have a voicemail?

DeJah: Let

Joe: me check

DeJah: why in the archives we do. I

Joe: did find one, yes.

DeJah: Amazing.

Joe: Here we go. [00:22:00]

voicemail: What music genre would your pet be? Hmm, that is my rambling question. Just came across something on YouTube. Hilarious. By a gentleman that always does dogs and you know what their behaviors are, and he just came out with one about genre of music.

So what would your music genre of your pet be? I have a shepherd and a shepherd mix. So my particular shepherd, I'm thinking Sadie's rock. He is a little punch in your face sometimes, but he is also very super chill. My female shepherd mix as a lot of Cyndi Lauper girls just wanna have fun, but she's a lot of female, like, you know.

Patar Joan Jet, and if we flash into the nineties, so I'm just gonna say she's pure eighties rock female empowerment with a little two thousands. So yeah, [00:23:00] that's her attitude. So those would be the genre of music or particular artists that my dogs would be. What about your pet?

Joe: Hmm. I think you have to start by describing your pet.

Yeah. You gotta let us in on, on the, on the call here.

DeJah: Yeah. I, I instantly thought of Betty, Betty, Ruth. So Betty Ruth is half German Shepherd, half golden retriever. And I am pretty sure if she was represented in music, she would be Steve Martin playing a banjo.

That is perfect. Because she is so derby. She is so like, love her, but she, because I don't, she's quick. Yep. But she's Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yep. That, yeah. And, and. Man, my Phineas, he Sir Phineas wiggle bottoms. I was about say give the full name. [00:24:00] Yeah, he is half, half German Shepherd and half Husky High inflection.

'cause I haven't actually had it tested, but The Curly tells says it all. And the drama. Oh man. Yeah, that's it's very, that's also very eighties metal. Like the screaming at the top of your lungs, but also being very sensitive. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Huh. So, I'm trying to think. I think of, oh man, I instantly pictured an eighties heavy metal singer. Oh man, blonde. I can't. David Lee Roth no. Older with, he always had the, the, I'm think it's Skid Row.

No, no, no. Anyway, sorry. Yeah.

Jen: About say Sebastian B was the singer of Skid Row. Right? No,

DeJah: no. It'll come to me later. Blonde again, if bonjovi, if little, little, little trees. Sparkly water.[00:25:00]

Joe: This answer is sponsored by little key spark water.

DeJah: Exactly. Ah,

Jen: DHC just adds a little extra rabble. Yeah. Do you know yours, Joe? 'cause I don't,

Joe: so, you know, I named my dogs after file extensions. So I have one dog named JPEG Nice. And JPEG has the personality of eor. She's older now. But she's not smart.

And so I kind of think it would just be like what my kids listen to when they study, which I think is called like ambient chill. Just like, it's just constantly, that would be her. And then my other dog's name is Docx, D-C-D-O-C-X, you know, like a Word document. And Dax is a puppy and she's got, she's a farm.

Dog and she's got way too much energy and she just wants to sprint all the time. But again, I don't think there's a lot going on upstairs with her. So I feel like her internal soundtrack would just be [00:26:00] muzak, like the crappier in the elevator. It's like slightly off imitation of good stuff. Yes. But I don't know.

I just, that's, I, that's how I think of every dog though that I've ever met. I feel like their brains are just always going. Like, that's what's going through head all the time. My gosh. Like, gimme, gimme a toy. What's that? What you got? I feel like that's how dogs are.

DeJah: So

Joe: that's what I think.

Jen: That's

DeJah: hilarious.

Jen: I, so I have two brown dogs and one is 15 and one just turned six. And the 15-year-old is an angel. So I just, I feel like she is Celine Dion,

DeJah: the deer,

Joe: and then you're half, then you're half husky, just like, oh

DeJah: yes, no, no. It's like,

Jen: yeah, it is a lot.

Yeah, I, I was gonna [00:27:00] say she feels like something, someone that is I was gonna go like a, I do love Celine Dion now. Somebody that's like, like oh my Sarah Bareis. Okay. Because Chance is also generally just pretty like, happy, but also like she holds her own. So I just think of somebody that has like a upbeat, like lighter, kind of like style, but she's also like, she stand her ground on on certain things.

Theo. Oh, Theo. Theo is, I think Theo is dubstep.

DeJah: I was gonna say Busta rhyme. Just rapping. Just

Joe: he's Eminem and rap. Yes.

Jen: Theo is, he is. Husky. Husky. Mix as well. Smaller in stature than, than Dejas Husky mix. And but he

DeJah: can but mighty in mind,

Jen: he can jump real high. Now he can be the best like Sweet Cuddler as well. Yes. [00:28:00] But when he is not asleep, you know, when it's dinnertime, he like literally runs and runs and runs in circles and circles and circles and then runs into his crate to eat like the, and the springs on his feet are just unreal.

The how high he can jump. So he is a hole. Hodgepodge of sounds and songs and, and music.

DeJah: I, I figured out who the eighties rock singer that I envisioned my dog as we knew you would. Dee Snider. Oh.

Joe: Because he ain't gonna take it. I tell you. That ain't gonna take it anymore. He's not

DeJah: gonna take me being outta sight.

He's not gonna take me not giving him snacks enough. He's not gonna take it.

[00:29:00]

Joe: Mm. My, my puppy, like she has. Much like a Husky has different barks. She's an English setter, but I swear this isn't document. I think it might just be my dog. But when we go to the mountains, she knows she's close to the cabin and she gets to run around outside.

So she's excited. So as soon as we start taking curves, she makes this noise. If we pull through Starbucks and she knows she might get a pup cup, she makes this noise. If. If my wife leaves the house without her, [00:30:00] she makes this noise. I'm gonna back way up off the mic 'cause this is an annoying noise and I feel like I'm not embellishing at all.

And if your dog is, if you've heard anything from us, a dog. I mean, maybe they need help. Maybe my dog's broken, but this is what it sounds like.

But on the way to the mountain, she'll do it for like 15 minutes and I, oh my God, I have to pull off the road. 'cause I'm laughing so hard, I'm crying and my wife isn't breathed in like 10 minutes 'cause she's laughing and this tongue is just losing its head. Just making that noise straight for 10, 15 minutes.

So excited. So excited. And you should see the reactions of the Starbucks baristas. Oh, I bet. When that dog like they're like,

DeJah: you just throw it just, yeah.

Jen: Oh, that's so funny. Oh my God. It's messed

Joe: up. I've never seen a dog do it. It's that.

Jen: That that was, that's a lot. I'm glad it makes you laugh. 'cause I was like, if I had to listen to that for 15 minutes, I would lose my mind.

Joe: God. Yeah. It's so pathetic. I think it's just funny. This game was fun. [00:31:00] Let's continue the fun. Yeah. If you had to assign a musical genre to people, oh, let's do some rapid fire. Mm-hmm. Joe Biden.

DeJah: Amish music, what is that? There's certainly no drums. Nope. It's, I feel like they play Myers not, not as inspiring as it should be.

Yes. That that's good. Yep.

Joe: Alright, Jen, I'll give you a D one. All right. Gimme Kamala Harris.

Jen: Ooh. She'd be like some oh my God. Of course. I think some RB Well, I was gonna like, like Megan the thee stallion or something like, you know, something like badass, like in your face? Mm-hmm. Make you listen. Kind of

DeJah: batty hip hop.

Yeah. Okay. All right. Donald Trump. Ugh. [00:32:00] John Phillips Souza on repeat. I, who? That. It's marching band music. Oh.

Just, just fucking endless, very loud ear drum destruction. Just hateful. It makes sense. Horrible. It's a lot of like, look

Jen: at me, look at me, look at me, look at me. Look at me.

Joe: Bang,

Jen: bang, bang, bang at me. Look

DeJah: at me. Look at me, look at me. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Yes. That is that's accurate.

Joe: Yeah, that's fine.

That's fine. Mm-hmm. That's fine. All right. Let's switch to some actors and actresses. Okay. Let's hear. Have you seen the new trailer for the new Leonardo DiCaprio movie? No. No. Doesn't matter. It's terrible again. No, I'm fine. It's good, it's good. It looks fine. What musical genre is Leonardo DiCaprio?

Jen: I feel like he's like Frank Sinatra kind of vibe. Oh, that's funny. Maybe

DeJah: I'm just thinking a gas. That's so funny. I thought something literally the opposite. [00:33:00] That's funny. You're, you're like, he's classy. I'm like. It's like a strip club remix.

Jen: We'll just combine the two. They're playing nothing but like, like an Ed

DeJah: m version.

Of course. That shook around me. Uhhuh Uhhuh. That's funny, guys. How fucking old? And you will only date women 30 or 40 years younger

Jen: than him. Come on. No. Yeah. Oh yeah. I wasn't thinking about that. I, I, first, my mind just went straight to Gatsby. I don't know why. And his

Joe: movie, you're, you're giving him so much credit, homie.

And is the movie, I think Zoe Kretz is playing his daughter. I wonder if that's humbling to him. I hope so. Mm-hmm. All right. Who do you guys think what kind of music would Tom Hanks be?

DeJah: You know what, Tom Hanks is country music. He's, he's soothing, he's entering in all demographics.

Jen: He's beloved.

DeJah: Yeah.

Jen: Well, you know, he did, he did voice woody.

Joe: Yeah.

Jen: And he was. Wasn't that him? Mm-hmm. Yeah. [00:34:00] Yeah,

Joe: yeah, yeah. That was him. Okay. Toy Story six is in production. Holy.

Jen: Are you serious? Shit. What? There are six of them

Joe: in the Never Ending Quest to never make a new movie again.

Jen: Wow. Wow. Or the Fast and the Furious Series guys. I

DeJah: honestly thought there were two.

Jen: You just blew my mind. The third one made me cry. Wow. They

Joe: all made me. That's Pixar, man. Yeah, they get you. Pixar knows how to get you Oh

DeJah: up. Oh

Joe: my

DeJah: some. Somebody's gotta teach some moral stories around here. Thank you. Pixar.

Joe: Yeah. Up was crazy. 'cause up would make you cry in the opening credits. Yes. The first

Jen: 10 minutes you're like weeping.

Joe: Because you see it coming and you're like, no, they're gonna, they're gonna, they're gonna do it. They, they did it. They did it. They did it. They did it. He, they did it. I'm already

DeJah: hooked.

I'm already hooked. He's alone. Yeah, he's alone. My emotions are big. Dog, dog. I'm gonna

Joe: glass. Case of

DeJah: a

Joe: bow. All right. Let's think let's think let's think. [00:35:00] Okay. You might not know this and I feel like I'm dating myself, but he just, I, I thought celebrity, and then I thought of Patrick Dempsey. If you dunno who Patrick Dempsey is,

DeJah: yes.

Yeah. But. Is vanilla a genre of music? I, I got nothing. Yeah. It's jazz. I, it's jazz. That is not No, no, no,

Joe: no. Uhuh It's like jazz infused with the eucalyptus and cookie dough. Oh. Oh, no. It's weird. If

DeJah: jazz is paid by white people.

Joe: Yeah. Yeah. If jazz is made by white people, it's, it's the marching band music.

God, no.

DeJah: And I don't, yeah.

Jen: I don't, just based off of lo looks. I mean, I don't know. I mean I know he is played in like some romcoms, obviously Grey's Anatomy. Yeah.

Joe: This is the right person I'm thinking of. So weirdest like person to pick. I like,

Jen: I know that's happened. I dunno, boy band music, like, would he beat the boy band genre?

Joe: There you go. What are really old boy bands? Like new [00:36:00] Kids on the Block? Oh, I was much older and Better Sex. Five. Think Jackson Five was a boy band or is that just mean to Jackson? Five. They were put together by an older man.

DeJah: Yeah, yeah. Forced to fight. And they were all boys, I mean, yeah.

Joe: Yeah. And they were in a band.

Yeah,

DeJah: that's true. That's very true. Literally. And Michael left the definition. Left

Joe: them like Justin left them. Oh.

DeJah: Oh. Those are fighting words. Yeah. Terrible, terrible thermal. Yeah. Yeah, I don't, I don't have a lot to say about ep. No, either. I never watched Green Anatomy, so

Joe: don't care. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So we were talking in the last episode. Thanks for listening. I know you guys remember this about how maybe some movies that were really good shouldn't be redone. Yes. Yeah. I've seen that they're starting to at least put in the works to remake stuff that's in the TV genre that I'm like, really?

DeJah: Like Grey's Anatomy.

They're redoing Grey's Anatomy again.

Joe: And I heard Family Matters. Yeah. Is being [00:37:00] rebooted. Whoa. On Can we get some original

DeJah: material up in this space? Yeah.

Joe: Yeah. I mean, fuller House wasn't terrible the first episode, and then it was terrible. First

DeJah: episode.

Jen: Yeah. That's why we were all just so excited. Mm-hmm.

Yeah. To everybody back together.

Joe: I was excited to see what they looked like, and then it was like curiosity, satisfied.

DeJah: Yeah. No, that's just disappointing. That's lazy. I mean, that's just lazy. No, there's so, there's so much new material available out there. Like I think some of these people that pick what gets made also gets stuck in kind of an echo chamber, like, yeah, yeah,

Joe: like that worked.

Let's do it again.

DeJah: Mm-hmm. Yeah, they're doing a

Joe: clueless TV show.

DeJah: Silence. I think I do remember just crickets. You could have inserted crickets. I think one, one and done is on that. But it is, it is.

Joe: Alicia Silverstone

DeJah: Is the mom.

Joe: I, she's, I don't know. I don't know much about

DeJah: the

Joe: Grandma MEbA. Okay. Okay. They talking about redoing [00:38:00] scrubs.

They should have stopped before they became a teaching hospital. I don't know if you watched that show, but that's when it jumped the shark. Mm-hmm. They're talking about rebooting, Buffy.

Jen: Oh, I heard that too. I thought that was like more legit. But I mean, it's,

Joe: it's supposed to be coming to Hulu. Sarah Michelle Geller is attached to it, and she will be Buffy.

Interesting. It does not have Joss Whedon

DeJah: on it now. That's not redoing it. It's continuing it. Okay. Yeah,

Joe: that's true. Right. Well, so is family matters in that regard? Because it's the same people. Oh, is it? Yeah.

Jen: Well, except for. Carl, right? Yeah. Didn't he pass away? He

Joe: passed. Yeah. I'm sure it'd just be Urkel will be the dad.

No.

DeJah: Mm. There weren't a lot of characters on that show. Right? Like they're really gonna have to stretch. Yeah. And add and like, yeah. My wife is very

Joe: excited about this little house on the Prairie. He's coming back. Oh

DeJah: g for joy. Oh, I hope they include [00:39:00] a lot of the accuracy that was lacking in the original looked very safe version.

Yeah. Yeah. They're doing a, so, in other words, dysentery,

Joe: they're doing legally blonde prequel on Amazon called L of course, because why

DeJah: not? Shocked. It's not already out there.

Joe: There's too many of these. I mean, why can, can we come up with new shows, guys?

DeJah: No.

Joe: No, apparently not. Not. There's been some great new shows.

Have you guys seen that one based in the elementary school? I, my name Abbott Elementary.

DeJah: No, I've heard of it, but that's a good one. That's

Joe: a great sick eye. Okay. Okay. The woman that writes it, I'm always looking for a new, funny one. The woman that writes it is fantastic. She's in it too. Mm-hmm. And so it reminds me very much of the office, you know, 'cause like they were in it.

So the main writers of that were BJ Novak and, and Min Kalyn. Oh, okay. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Who were the temps that worked in the Annex? Because. They had to do scene rewrite, so they didn't wanna sit in the rain room where the camera always was. But yeah, I think anytime the writer's on it, it makes it for a [00:40:00] better sitcom.

DeJah: That's, that's interesting.

Joe: What are you guys watching that's making you laugh?

DeJah: I literally just thought, as you were saying that, just out of the name of the show that I was trying to come up with earlier, the one where they, we reach out right to another planet and they respond. It's a three, three body problem.

Oh, it's the name of the show and they're coming out with another another season is coming out too, so I'm kind of like, Ooh, good. I got a couple seasons lined up.

Joe: Yeah. I didn't know if that one, because you know how every time a new show comes on Netflix, everybody's like, you gotta see the new Netflix show.

And I'm like, fool me once. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've been down this road. Yeah. But that one was actually good.

DeJah: Uhhuh, I'm a, I'm, I'm hooked in it now. Right. Again, it's about the writing. That's one of the things I love about HBO. It's good writing. Yeah, that's where some of the, the hokey stuff, I'm just like, I'm bored.

You're, yeah,

Joe: man. The first season, what was the HBO show? When it was McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. Oh, yes. True detective. A true detective, yep.

DeJah: Where they kept rotating, but that first,

Joe: the first season, so Oh, good. I mean, skip, skip the other ones. I mean, you're fine to skip the other ones. The first one [00:41:00] was that much better.

It really was. It really was. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Mm-hmm. And I don't know if it was McConaughey being whatever weird version of McConaughey Hey, that he was Yeah. But Woody Harrelson was great. Yep. Yes, absolutely. And their dynamic.

Jen: Oh man. Mm-hmm. It was so good.

DeJah: Mm-hmm. And there's a lot, and again, the writing, yeah.

Holy depth and twist and dynamic. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And it's an

Joe: overplayed genre, like it's a trope at this point. But they did so good. Yep. Yeah. Absolutely. It was so good. Absolutely. I know,

Jen: I, I didn't know that they were doing it the way they were, that every season it was a different mm-hmm. You know, do or whatever.

Yeah. I was bummed. Say That's exactly what I was ready to say. I was so let down when I realized that that was Yep. I was like, wait, it was not, I know,

DeJah: I know. Same. I did the exact same thing, which is why I think we need to let's get on our protest sign guys and say Stop. With remaking shows and movies that have already been made.

And let's turn some fucking books into some series. Yes, yes. There are so many good literary works that could be turned into amazing visual experiences. Sarah

Jen: Dema. [00:42:00]

Joe: Yes. I do, I do have one exception to your rule 'cause I agree with you most of the time. But the new Dexter is fantastic.

DeJah: Okay. I haven't gotten there yet.

Joe: Not the reboot when he is a kid. Mm-hmm. But the new season of Dexter. Mm-hmm.

Jen: It's so good. Okay. Okay. Now Deja knows what she's about to start watching 'cause I

DeJah: have, I, yeah, I have actually haven't been on Dexter for a while. Bounce off. You'll have it

Joe: this time. About seven episodes. Excellent to jump on. I appreciate that.

I appreciate that. Before it gets canceled, so jump on over there. Right. Better,

DeJah: better, better binge that action. Yeah. Wouldn't it be hilarious if they went bankrupt in the timeframe? Yeah, wouldn't that be funny? And then if they go through the spiral, they fire Colbert, their top ratings, they just stab themselves right through and then can't come back.

But

Joe: who would make

DeJah: texter? Oh. HBO

Joe: didn't they, didn't they make it? No. Showtime. Showtime. Yep. Showtime. Showtime. That's right. Which is Paramount, which is CBS. Mm-hmm. There's only like [00:43:00] two media companies. It's funny. Yeah. People

DeJah: again, they don't understand that it's just a monopoly. It's the same again, it's like the, the jewelry stores or they, they own it all and they just make you think that they don't to market against you.

Yeah. But anyway. Capitalism.

Joe: Capitalism. Yeah. So the question was, Jen, what are you laughing at right now? What are you watching? What's, what's that? Oh,

Jen: oh. I was like, what am I laughing at right now? What Deja just said. Well, I've been watching the Cowboys docuseries. Yeah. Or watched it. Yeah. And we're rewatching the van buy diaries.

That's my like, mm-hmm. If I wanna put TV on, but I also might scroll on my phone a lot because this will be the third time that I'm watching it. That's always a good one for me.

DeJah: Have, do you like Wednesday? Yes. There's a second season. New, yeah. Yes. I was just gonna suggest that that was, that's adorable.

Yep. That's precious.

Jen: Mm-hmm. That I started watching the hunting wives. Okay. But I think I fell asleep, but [00:44:00] I like a little bit into the first episode, but apparently I need to go watch it. Everybody's been raving about it and like how spicy it is, and

DeJah: there's like a bunch of like thrillers and sci-fi, but there's not a lot of like comedy.

Yeah, just a vein of what I really need. So again, I'd really, I'd really like to give a shout out to Gavin Newsom's press office. They've really been keeping me, keeping me going. I've just instantly, in my mind, I just pictured G Newsom riding an eagle. And I feel better. Thanks. It's all it takes. It's all it takes.

Mm-hmm. Keep 'em coming, boys and girl.

Jen: Yeah. But do you know, so we've talked about here on here before about being an Outlander fan. Yeah. And, and the new one. Just, I, I believe it's, it's like out, I know it came out this month. I didn't know, or, or it came out in August, excuse me. But I dunno the exact date.

But anyway, that I want to watch that. Mm-hmm. Because the last season of Outlander comes out in early 2026, so I feel like there's a reason why they're releasing them this way. And so the blood of my blood is the prequel to the Outlander series. Yeah. So, [00:45:00] nice. Nice. Anyway, so that's what I wanna be watching.

Yeah. Yeah.

All right. Yeah. Guys, we went from fall, I mean, to dog music genres, to actors genres, to We true our word. We're gonna ramble. Yeah. Yeah. Just, and it's not hard. No. Mm-hmm. Nope. Mm-hmm. Not at all. No. Well, we hope you kind of played along with us in naming your genres for your, for pets or actors or all the things.

DeJah: Let us, let us know if you also have a De Snider dog. Just real curious. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Jen: And we would love to hear more like, text us and let us know what what genre of music your pets will be. It doesn't have to just be dogs. You know, what genre is your fish? You got a lizard? And

DeJah: yeah, voicemail.

Leave us a text with some ideas where we can ramble on.

Jen: Yep. If you wanna, we'll take her. We'll roll with it. You wanna give us a shout? You can call 9 1 9 2 9 5 0 [00:46:00] 5 7 8. Again, you will not have to talk to a human being. It'll go straight to voicemail. We will get it. We'll, Joe will play it and we'll talk about it.

Or you can text a thought or comment or whatever to 9 1 9 2 9 5 0 5 7 8. Either way, it will come to us. We'd love to hear your thoughts. You guys give us some great content that, you know, just leads us down whatever path.

DeJah: Yep. Down the rabbit hole, baby. The rambling rabbit hole. Yeah.

Jen: So have a good fall.

Mm-hmm. That means we're heading into Christmas. Christmas, which means that we're heading our year anniversary for the podcast. So that's exciting.

DeJah: Absolutely. Absolutely. Very much everyone break out your sweaters. You know what? Your mouth balls prepare yourselves. I am prognosticating a deep winter, so yeah, yeah.

Let's wrap up guys. Let's let, let's stay warm. Happy

Joe: fall y'all.

DeJah: And you know what you

Joe: forgot to say. Ramble on. Yeah. [00:47:00] Can't press a stop one.
