Transcript (by Chelsea Jones):



Chase: Welcome to Wholehearted by Love Strong! Tyler and Chase here!  So, coming down this morning, I had a lot on my mind. The first thing I wanted to do was–what’s up, Rooster?



Ty: Hey, Roo!



Chase: Dingle-Boy, poppin’ on the scene. He’s off again! Ty’s got–



Ty: I’ve got my Garmin on Rooster today to see how many miles he runs in this 20 minutes that we sit and talk so… I’m guessing it’s going to be up over six or seven (miles).



Chase: It’s kind of amazing because everytime I see him on one side–so you know, right now he’s coming from the north. He’s he’s headed east… I swear the next time I see him he’s going coming up the mountain from the west.



Ty: Somehow, somehow! It’s amazing!



Chase: Yeah! It’s kind of like those scenes from Superman or something where he wraps around the world and catches the bullet on the other side!



Ty: That’s kind of how he is! That’s how Rooster is!



Chase: Yeah, so we’ll see what is his paths and his stats are today. It might even be to help Ty get some steps in on his counter, I don’t know! (Laughter)



Ty: Exactly! That’s what I do, I just use him, now!



Chase: Yeah, there you go. I actually did find out… I accidentally looked at my health app on my phone, and I saw that I had put in over 3 miles yesterday.



Ty: That’s awesome!



Chase: Right? And that’s a regular work day! I was thinking, “I never had my phone in my pocket when I was cruising around the office… That doesn’t really make a ton of sense.” Then I realized that I put my phone in my pocket while I’m biking to work, so it’s catching all that. It’s counting that as steps, so I got like “6,000 steps” the other day, and they’re total bologna. (Laughter) I’m a little disappointed that the phone method is not as accurate.



Ty: It makes you feel good when you see it. It just doesn’t change your body at all!



Chase: No, not at all! So maybe placebo’s coming in and helping us out a little bit. I’m not sure that’s how it works, but…. Coming down this morning, I was thinking about– I got in the car there’s a book that  Ty had suggested called “Loving What Is” by Byron Katie, and I started listening to it yesterday. I wanted to pick up where I left off. So, I went to go throw it on, I realized I hadn’t downloaded it yet on my phone. So I was  just sitting there thinking, “Well crap, what am I going to do for the next 2 hours?” I love driving in the car, it’s just such a nice time to sit and be with yourself.



Ty: It’s meditative.



Chase: Oh, yeah. It can be! I ended up coming up with jokes all morning. I was just thinking about jokes, I don’t know why! That’s where my mind was at was, “Hey, got two and a half hours. Why don’t you just pretend like you’re on a stage doing some standup and see what you can crank out?” (2:51) So I’m not going to tell any–well, we’ll see!



Ty: You can’t say that without telling a joke! (Laughter)



Chase: Alright! So, I got a co-worker who’s got a farm in Costa Rica and she was telling ...
