Can confirm couch ordering was a whole long thing pre-pandemic as well. Back in 2016 we ordered ours in early January and it didn't get to us until July so yeah in the midst of the pandemic and shortages and whatnot I can definitely see it taking as long as it has for you Tim.
When Tim is talking about skateboarding towards the end, there is what sounds like a disembodied Kevin calling him and it never gets acknowledged. I'm assuming that is because it's actually Barrett but it sounded so much like Kevin to me haha.
Mikes awkwardness with the waiter giving him some wine to taste is so fuckin real. Every time I get a bottle and the dude asks how it is I just say “yep it’s wine!” Lmao
I LOVE to eat the spiciest soup over at Chu Shang Spicy. And that comes out REAL hot the next day. I do think about it when ordering. Although I've just found that the more I eat it, and other spice, the better it gets. Over the years my tolerance and body has grown up better to the task.
I don’t think Andy realizes that velociraptors were actually quite small. If I remember correctly about the size of a turkey. Jurassic Park just made them huge in order to make them menacing. But they were nowhere near that size in real life.
Tim the exact same thing happened to me. Ordered a West Elm couch in November knowing it was going to ship in December. December became January. Which became March. Which became a May estimate, which was when I said I don’t even want it anymore lol
I know I’m late to this video but I just wanna thank Andy for the My Cousin Vinny line. Every time someone says identical I hear “I…dentical!” in my head
Pro tip: if you book a room at a hotel that has a casino, most times they'll give you like 30 bucks to spend at the casino. Use a like 75 percent of those dollars for fun bets like at The Wheel, use the rest on the penny slots. Fun fact: as long as you're betting on the casino, they'll give you free drinks. Stop by the casino and play some penny slots when you want a drink or as pregame for your entire stay for free. You're welcome.
Tim is right about being neutered changing your dog, it makes them calmer usually and changes their personality. Can often make them more aggressive if its traumatic.
1:06:00 The chard SLANDER here is unforgivable. Dry wines are immaculate with a nice board and great for people who don't handle sugar as well. I can't even drink a regular coke without getting a stomach ache 😐
I have a similar story to the couch. I ordered a bed frame from a place like early last year. My wife and i were happy with it, we liked the color, we even picked out a mattress to go with it. We clicked the payment submission button and then we saw the delivery date. 6 Months later. Literally 6 months to get this bed across the country. Its not even that big of a bed frame. The mattress came 5 months before the frame did. Tim is not joking when he says that this is the process of ordering furniture. If you are interested in a piece of furniture, MAKE SURE, that it is someone where that you can pick it up, other wise you will wait a LONG time to get it. And even then, you might be waiting even longer depending on where you live.
Andy, the button thing IS real and the reason you don't see training videos is because it takes forever. We're training our German Shepherd to talk and I wish we documented more of the process from the beginning. It's basically just pressing the buttons yourself before and after doing the thing the button says and eventually the dog mirrors your behavior because that's how dogs work lol You're really just cultivating behavior for your dog to mirror rather than training them to press buttons, that definitely doesn't work.
Oh Gosh Tim, I also have a terrible couch delivery story. My wife went the first 4 months of our home without a couch because of it. Big couch is certainly out to get us.
If you want to impress people, lol, order a porte wine. It's different enough that most people don't know what you're talking about, it's a red wine, so people will think it's one of those bitter "sophisticated" wines. It's sweet, lol. Tastes great. Enjoy
100% agree with Andy about the dogs pressing the buttons! Haha I've been arguing with my girlfriend about this for ages! I don't believe those dogs understand wtf those buttons mean and we only see the edited videos where it looks like they kinda understand but it could much more easily be a coincidence if they're recording the dog 24 hours a day! Even a broken clock is correct twice a day!
Dogs know sounds and are absolutely able to understand what and when to do something. People don’t like to think they are as smart as they are because they still view them as simple “animals”. Andy wants a full movie chronicling the training process. If they did put that up if it’s longer than 30 seconds dudes scrolling and losing interest. Just because people are used to taking information in 30 second chunks they like to think animals are the same way.
I got you Andy on the "I-dentical". And as someone who took a shit ton of Tums back in the day, be careful not to overdo it. Don't keep chomping on them, especially the chalky ones, cuz it can lead to Kidney Stones! Tim, that doesn't mean be a wuss & don't take them cuz they absolutely help. Just watch yer intake. And too many Aleve are bad for you Andy. They are high in sodium. Go with Ibu if you can. Rant over
Tim that is not how "couches" work. You most likely went to some expensive ass furniture company and over paid out the ass on top of an outrageous wait time. I've never had an issue getting furniture either same day or within the same week I bought it lol. Also did you not measure the doorways before you went and ordered the couch???
Nah man the furniture market is insane right now. Supply chain fell off a cliff start of pandemic and they've been playing catchup ever since. 2-4 months is pretty standard these days.
At Schlitterbaun, a water park in Kansas City they let a congressman’s kid on a tall water slide & I think he was too light & he flew off & died so that’s what would happen at a real Jurassic Park occasionally 1-2 people would die mostly their fault of doing what they shouldn’t but it would NEVER turn in to Jurassic World 🦕 🌎
th-cam.com/video/JcXVxM9qJM0/w-d-xo.html I rewinded this and listened to it multiple times watching everyones expressions... I was giggling so furiously
sipping coffee listening to the boys and gal, i love it here
I’m on the toilet
I'm so excited for when they'll pound the desk together in the new studio when "this table" is said
Shout out snowbike mike for having me in tears laughing with his wine and trombone stories 😂 a national treasure
I've never connected more with a couch description than "Going from a 'can lay down' couch to a 'can't lay down' couch" I Felt That! haha
Mike’s stories are always so great 😂
In tears listening to Mike describe his wine tasting moment. We need a Mike and Andy life advice podcast
Napping + Curb sounds perfect. Cheers Andy.
Continuing the streak of banger Mike episodes here on KFpod.
Tim reminds me so much of my brother. Just a pure, kind, and easygoing person. Thank you for always being a ray of sunshine!
He literally used to be known as "the pure one tim gettys" then he went and got married
I grew up next to a big park that had a zoo. For years every night without fail at around 1am the bunnies escaped. I don't want a dino park. Lol
Not-movie velociraptors were about the size of a wolf (or big turkey). So they'd be perfect household pets.
I instantly knew that My Cousin Vinny quote because dad quotes it all the time including the hand clap. 🤣

Man, I just absolutely love you guys
This was a great podcast

37:20 Good to hear you’re doing well, Mike
It’s crop top season !

Velociraptors are the size of a turkey. The movies portray a Deinonychus but call them velociraptors. We'd be fine with little velociraptors, :]

Am I the only one that thinks chalky tums work better than the chewy-starburst tums?

Andy, I'm surprised you didn't go with a Battle Beaver controller. Way more options

wish the entire episode was about Mike's weekend!

Mike should invite MKBHD to the show when you guys are back in the studio to teach him how to throw a frisbee.
The fact that Mike’s music teacher never noticed Mike wasn’t playing makes me think he wasn’t a real music teacher to begin with. 😄
I've always wanted to learn how to play the piano
A+ fucking stories from Mike this episode. Had me cackling
Yeah, my Dachshund became a lot more mellow after getting desexed.
Andy playing 6th day with moose.
Tim is definitely not too old to even start learning piano now.
Anybody else just take one nexium a day for the heartburn?
"I believe that if we brought dinosaurs back and made a park nothing bad would happen" that's what Mr Hammond thought...
I genuinely appreciate the warning Tim.
Tim, preparation h with aloe wipes. Will save ya
Dam Tim, did they try removing the front window and hoisting through there?

Idk if it’s the mustache but Mike is looking real old in this video lol
Tim got taken by Big Couch

Quick like for the Kinda Funny Crew!!! Let's Goooo!!!!
Let’s goo!!

Everybody gets a spicy B hole sometimes Tim, don’t be ashamed. We all know the feeling.
Can’t wait for My Cousin Vinny In Review
Lovesac
I'm a monster who likes chalky tums
I'm eating grapes with no pants on
''Think Chick-fil-A nugget...'. without all the hate and child abuse?
Tim, Jesus, that’s the saddest story ever
At Schlitterbaun, a water park in Kansas City they let a congressman’s kid on a tall water slide & I think he was too light & he flew off & died so that’s what would happen at a real Jurassic Park occasionally 1-2 people would die mostly their fault of doing what they shouldn’t but it would NEVER turn in to Jurassic World 🦕 🌎
