85.79 - 102.626 Eli Doubletap

I was like, so we go to the sled Hill cause it's like snowing and shit where I'm at. It snowed like 18 inches in three days and there's like three sled Hills. They get progressively larger. So I take my small children to the little sled Hill. which is fine. And everybody takes turns. And then some like 13 year old that's fat.

103.548 - 121.855 Eli Doubletap

I'm only saying that because it's the only ammo I had against him proceeds to take a turn going on the sled Hill on a snowboard, which is fine. Makes it three feet down the Hill before he eats. Also fine. You got to practice to get good. That's okay. He then proceeds to walk to the bottom of the sled Hill and lay down and start building a ramp.

122.932 - 149.572 Eli Doubletap

And after like 30 seconds of my kids standing there waiting to take the turn, I'm like, can you get up? Why? So everybody else can take a turn? You don't own the hill. The city owns the hill. And I pay taxes, you little shithead. Move. You don't pay taxes. Yes, I do. Move. And then he gets up and moves and then does it again. And then I yell at him again.

Chapter 3: What are the kids getting for Christmas?

149.592 - 168.57 Eli Doubletap

And then like, if you have a big sled hill, they do this thing where they chain tires together. So you can walk through the tires to get up the hill. So you're not slipping up the hill. And he then proceeds to lay down on the tires. So my little kids can't walk up the hill. So I pick my three-year-old up, and I'm like, oh, it's okay, Cash. Come here.

0

168.851 - 175.541 Eli Doubletap

I'll carry you up the hill since Fatso over here wants to be a fucking slug right next to him. So you call me a slug?

0

Chapter 4: How does the gang feel about Colonel Sanders?

175.681 - 185.957 Eli Doubletap

185.977 - 194.649 Unknown

194.829 - 196.171 Eli Doubletap

I don't like fat kids at sled hills.

0

196.251 - 203.44 Donut Operator

I don't like kids either. I'm still stuck on that rebuttal. You don't pay taxes is a wild thing for a child.

0

203.46 - 222.345 Eli Doubletap

That's what I tell my son all the time. And then I punch him. Right. You yell at John. He doesn't pay taxes. You don't pay taxes. I just, I just fucking like a Molly Whopper right in the face. The funny thing is, I know that's not true because John could probably take you down now. You know,

246.119 - 253.03 Cody

And what happened? We scared every fucking white woman at the lunch place that we were at.

253.21 - 259.64 Eli Doubletap

That also did happen, yeah? Yeah. And you had two individuals standing patiently waiting to ask for a photograph, too.

259.72 - 266.491 Unknown

And Cody didn't recognize they were just standing there. And then Cody and John start wrestling and then going faster and harder.

Chapter 6: How did Colonel Sanders transition from a gas station owner to a restaurant entrepreneur?

3754.872 - 3785.384 Eli Doubletap

That was one of many things. Okay. I love that. You yellow dog. When's his video come out? before Christmas, right before Christmas. Wind is yours. It's after the live shows though, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This is like the 20th, right? Oh, we can go over it. Colonel Harlan Sanders was born in the 1800s and his father died at a young age. So his mother was working in a tomato factory.

0

3786.165 - 3802.022 Eli Doubletap

So at the age of five, he basically had to raise his four younger siblings. And that's where he got his passion for cooking. And then when he was 12, his mother remarried and he didn't get along with his stepfather. So at the age of 12, he said, fuck you. And he left home and he began doing manual labor jobs on farms and railways.

0

3802.683 - 3823.577 Eli Doubletap

And then he falsified his birth certificate to join the United States army, went to Cuba and then came back and started working for the railroad. And he cussed like a sailor after serving in the military and kept getting fired from the railroad for beating the shit out of people repeatedly over and over and over again. and married a girl.

0

3823.637 - 3842.572 Eli Doubletap

They had a couple of kids and then how old is he right now? He's like 18. Married a girl, had a couple of kids and kept getting fired, bouncing around from job to job. And eventually his wife is like, I'm not dealing with this guy getting, getting fired all the time. I'm going to leave him. So he gets a letter while he's on the road and working for the railroad.

0

3842.693 - 3859.265 Eli Doubletap

Cause he like got fired, but got another job and gets this letter that, you know, his wife left him, gave up their house and gave away all the furniture. And in his autobiography, he's like, oddly mad about the furniture. Like he sued, like the getting rid of his furniture was like on par with taking his kids.

3859.606 - 3876.546 Eli Doubletap

Like he's like, she gave away my furniture and the kids and she didn't have any right to give away my furniture. Like it's really upset about the furniture for some reason, but he can't do anything about the furniture. He can still do something about the kids. So he fucking goes and like concocts a plan that he's going to kidnap his kids.

3876.927 - 3885.028 Eli Doubletap

And I believe in his autobiography, he says, and I quote, although I didn't really see it as kidnapping cause they was mine. So he goes to his father-in-law's house.

3885.048 - 3885.769 Unknown

I mean, fair enough. Yeah.

3886.41 - 3898.59 Eli Doubletap

So he goes to his father-in-law's house, and he's just, like, out in the woods. Obviously, he wasn't wearing the white suit, but in my head, he's wearing the white suit, like, out in a pile of leaves in the woods, like, waiting for his kids to come out to play. He's, like, 22.

Chapter 7: What challenges did Colonel Sanders face in his business ventures?

3903.077 - 3909.067 Donut Operator

That's Colonel Sanders. Bring out my kids before I give you the 11 secret herbs and spices. 100%.

0

3909.127 - 3909.988 Brandon Herrera

Pow!

0

3910.795 - 3927.467 Eli Doubletap

The kids never come out to play and he's like, oh, fuck it. I'm just going to go up to the door. So he goes up to the door, like, knocks. His father-in-law opens it. He's like, oh, hey, Harlan. How's it going? He's like, uh, good. So he, like, goes in the house and they, like, make small talk for a little bit. And he's like, go ahead.

0

3928.068 - 3935.357 Unknown

It's just... the dad looking out and you just see Colonel Sanders peeking out from a tree and they're like going back.

0

3935.377 - 3936.338 Donut Operator

It's like Slender Man.

3936.638 - 3940.242 Unknown

Yeah, exactly. It's like, what the fuck's he doing out in the woods?

3940.302 - 3943.304 Donut Operator

Fried chicken static.

3943.324 - 3959.822 Eli Doubletap

He like goes in and like has small talk with his father-in-law and is like soon to be ex-wife for a little while. And eventually he's like, I don't know what to do. So he just kind of like gets up. He's like, all right, well, I'm going to leave. And she's like, well, where are you going? He's like, I got a job in Illinois with the railroad. And she's like, nah, you better stay here with me.

3960.142 - 3969.416 Eli Doubletap

And then they just stayed married for another 37 fucking years. And he just relentlessly cheats on her. He called it Tom catting, but he was everybody.

Chapter 8: How did Colonel Sanders become a cultural icon and KFC spokesperson?

3970.117 - 3979.93 Eli Doubletap

So I'm in catting. That's what he called it. All right. So, I mean, it makes sense. That's a Southern term. Yeah. That's Tom cat. I've never heard Tom cat.

0

3979.97 - 3980.752 Unknown

Tom cats go out.

0

3980.772 - 4000.153 Eli Doubletap

It's an old Southern term. What is, it's like that old school mentality of like, it's not cheating if it's different zip codes. I guess back in the day where you could like go 12 miles down the road and have a whole different family and nobody'd ever fucking know. Yeah. Which happened a lot more than people. Trust me as a guy that reads world war two memoirs, I get it.

0

4000.974 - 4020.824 Eli Doubletap

I've heard like the amount of people that were like, yeah, his first child is actually named after his girlfriend from France, like all kinds of shit like that. But, uh, so it doesn't have to kidnap his kids, gets his family back, keeps work for the railroad, gets fired. At some point he's like, I'm going to become a lawyer. So he does like correspondence, which is like through the mail.

0

4021.044 - 4040.17 Eli Doubletap

Basically you can become a lawyer back in the day. It's like online school, but analog essentially. So it becomes a lawyer through the mail and then ends up losing his law license because he beats the fuck out of his own client in court, in court, in court. Oh man. Him and his client got into an altercation. He beat the shit out of him, lost his law license.

4040.751 - 4060.895 Eli Doubletap

So then he becomes a salesman for Michelin tires and that's going good. He becomes like the regional sales guy for the South and then he loses his job because he's driving across a bridge and the bridge collapses and and it totals his car, and he can't afford a new car. So they're like, well, if you can't sell, if you don't use our tires, you can't be a tire salesman. You're fired.

4061.456 - 4071.165 Eli Doubletap

So they fired him instead of just giving him a new car. I don't know why. It happened. Also, very bad luck. We're still talking about Colonel Sanders, right?

4071.265 - 4071.365 Cody

Yes.

4071.385 - 4096.521 Eli Doubletap

I feel like they're just looking for an excuse to fire him at that point. He was a very disagreeable person. It sounds like. He fought his client back. in court and lost his law license that took forever, I'm assuming. Like Nick said, disagreeable. So he fucking is like living in a small town, Kentucky, doesn't have a car. So he hitchhikes to the big, like the next big city.
