MWUTT 5: Psy-ops and gaslighting

Welcome to Men Who Understood the Times. I'm Pastor Michael Zarling. We have Pastor Andy Miller, and we have high school teacher Josh Nelson. And as we're, we always reiterate with the disclaimer at the beginning, none of us are speaking for our church body, which is celebrating 175 years this year, or our churches, our high school. Sometimes, I don't know, guys, if we're really talking for ourselves, 'cause we're just having fun, uh, recording, uh, as we're having our, our drinks. So I've got an Oktoberfest again. What do you guys have?

I have, uh, also an Oktoberfest. It's by Eagle Park. Uh, it's k- it's called MC Hammerschlagen. So it's a very effective advertisement. I said, "Oh, I have to buy that. That's fantastic." So-

That, that's worth a buy. I'm going highball once again.

There you go. Yeah, I, I've got one here. Uh, when I moved to town, I just stopped at a liquor store 'cause we were gonna have, uh, pastors over for my installation, and I f- I found some cans that said, "Don't pet the fluffy cows," 'cause, uh, you know- ... don't pet the bison. That, that's the thing here.

Yeah.

In fact, with that, so Shelly and I, we follow something called the tourons of Yellowstone, so it's the tourists and the morons together. And she saw a post today that they've got some huge bull bison there that set the record of, uh, throwing a touron 21 feet in the air.

Wow.

Yeah, so don't really pet-

Th- those things-

... don't really pet-

... weigh, like, 2,000 pounds, right?

Yeah. Yeah, and s- A- and since I've lived out here learning these are the small ones. The big ones, you know, before, you know, the American settlers were here and so forth, looking at archeology, they were twice the size if, if not bigger.

Wow.

Yeah. Uh-

So Mike-

Yes

... is Wyoming considered west or mountain west? I'm guessing mountain west, right?

Yeah. I don't know. Just it's west of Wisconsin, where I... or Kentucky, right?

Yeah, that's true. I was just gonna say the best beer is made on the West Coast, though, and liberals make the best beer.

There you go. Yeah.

Also coffee. We can give them coffee, I think as well.

Coffee and beer.

Yeah.

True. Yep.
