So do you guys think, I saw somebody's Facebook post the other day that said hashtag sober on the bottom. He's just getting fit is what it is. I don't know if he stopped drinking because of any certain reason other than he's just trying to get fit. Does the word sober mean that we maybe had a drinking problem or does the word sober just mean I quit drinking?
Or is there a better term for I just decided to stop drinking?
Okay. I didn't know if there was a background. I'm trying to think of the word with it.
Yeah. And I never drank and I was cool with never drinking until I wanted to do it socially because everybody else was. So that's the term everybody else was. Yeah, socially.
My parents didn't drink. I've never seen alcohol in the house. I've never seen my dad drink, ever. So he was drinking a lot when he was young and they cut cold turkey. Their first kid died of congenital heart disease. He blamed it on alcohol. They've never, never had alcohol. Even at our wedding, we had wine and he's like, make sure that my table does not have alcohol at it.
And so he has never since then, I've never grown up seeing my dad, mom, anything with any kind of alcohol. We never went to like games or tailgated or any of that. We went in bars and played pool, but we just never drank. So just whatever your norm is, it's a social norm. It just was never normal until I moved away and then everybody else was drinking. I just had a record going.
And just like you, if you've got a record going, you want to just keep going with it and not fail. So I was like, all right, screw it. I'll just go until 27 until finally I decided. Yeah. Let's give it a go.
It's all carbon fiber.
Yeah.
So what, I've been grinding towards a championship in auctioneering, the world championship there. And I've taken third, but I've never won it. And somebody said to me last year, Dave, you're never going to win it until you're ready to know what it feels like if you don't win it. So I got to ask you the question, what if you never win it? I know you got a goal. I got a goal too.
And are you ready to not win it? Because everybody tells me that's when you're going to actually win it. When you say, look, I don't care. I got a good family at home. I got a business. I got a whatever. That's the day that you're actually going to make it happen. Have you ever thought about that?
So is this just a social media speaking deal? No, no, no.
This is something that you want to professionally speak at a large keynote type deal and tell your story.
And so that's... Gotcha. So real quick, just throwing a plug there, what... You have a website for your speaking engagements?
We'll try to get you some speaking engagements.
Tanner, you are such an inspirational guy when we do podcasts like this. I can see your mind just freaking blowing up over there. You've got to relate this somehow.
I got two questions. You said cowboying. Do you have a special stirrup? No. Just regular stirrup on your saddle? Awesome.
Do you wear cowboy boots on your prosthetic? Awesome. Second question. Corey, do you think, I heard a guy say yesterday that we as, in Iowa anyways, farmers had drought the last couple of years and everybody got into harvest, get their combine in the field, they were kind of like down, you know, it's droughty, we need rain, we need rain, and Man, there's a 10-day stretch of like 90-degree weather.
I remember you saying that on the podcast. And then all of a sudden, everybody got out in the field and it was like, oh, okay, this is better than we thought. And all right, we're happy with this. Now, this year, we've had the rain. Does everybody have false hopes that this is going to be better than what it was in drought? Because in drought, we were all like, oh, hey, we got 250 bushel.
That was better than I thought. Now, this year, we had rain. Are they going to go out and it'll be like 240 bushel? And they're going to be like, ugh.
