That's where I came from. um, at a homeless shelter in college where you'd like sign up and like, there was a homeless shelter and you'd have to get there like at six or something. You do like breathalyzers for everyone.
And then you would host like 50 guys upstairs and you would have like one college student be downstairs and they would just have to like be in control and
of all these people for overnight and my first night I had to call the cops because I had a guy on bath salts going crazy at me yelling and gussing screaming at me and I was like this is how I die this is it it was terrifying how do they behave when they're on bath salts I thought they ate people I mean, yeah, he was just manic. He was absolutely manic.
And he was like trying to push people, fight people. And I was like trying to like control the situation because everyone's just kind of, you know, you have people that have been there and they've experienced and they're mature about it. And other people that just get triggered. And so they start fighting back. And you have an 18-year-old kid.
Oh, my gosh.
Who's just trying to control the situation.
Nuts.
And it's just he's in my face. I was terrified, dude. I was calling 911 like behind my back and everything. And then every time you turn his back and start yelling at somebody else, please clear.

Chapter 8: What are the historical impacts of the Black Plague?
Nice. I got married that year. A fantastic book to read to understand what homeless people go through is a book called Under the Overpass. Really good book. I'll put it on my list. It's this guy who was basically he was sitting in church one day and was talking about caring for the least of these. And he's like, He's like, what would it be like just to live homeless?
There's so many homeless people. He's like, so he was just going to live as a homeless man. And so he like, he set up this goal, like live for like a year as a homeless dude. And he moved to like four different States to experience it in each state or like four regions of the United States. And it's crazy.
I mean, it's so insightful and like, it really makes you try to be more intentional with people that are homeless. Cause like at the end of the book, he's just like, you literally start to feel not human. Yeah. Just the way that people treat you. Oh, I can't imagine. Yeah. He's like, it was so, it would make my day if someone just looked me in the eye or said hello. Yeah.
And he's like, but they don't, you just get treated like trash. Yeah. And he's like, it's also, you have no idea what a luxury it is to just use the restroom. He said, it's so difficult to find a restroom. So you just ended up having to go on the street. Yeah. It's crazy. Yeah. Really good buck though. I hate it. It's being a good Bucks. Andrew, hit us with that beat.
Bucks, Bucks, Bucks, Bucks. I just got a reel. He's going to ruin. Hold tight. Don't be scared. It's all right. That was insane. Good job. Literally last night, we were leaving. It was raining. We were leaving his parents' house, and he slipped a little. And he went literally like, ah! It scared him so bad that he slipped. While you were falling? Yeah. He caught himself.
I'm like, oh! That's hilarious.
I'm going to have to turn my phone around.
I don't know what's going on. It won't let me send videos to the group. I think Andy's just tired of watching the stuff that I film, and he's figured out a way to block this. The what? The chat?
