The cattle, and we'd wean them from their mom. So, like, take them away from their mom once they had enough milk and they had. I don't know, they're healthy enough to do that. And then we'd take them from there, and we put them in pens and we'd tie them up and literally treat them like humans. Like, we'd wash them every day. We would make sure they get to eat, literally whatever they want. They could grow as much as they want, make sure that they're healthy. And then we take them to the kids, and the kids would show them. So it's basically like taking the process away from buying the cattle and then the kids breaking them, and it's letting someone who actually knows what they're doing and experienced break them. Eddie bought part of a cow. A third. Really? Yeah. From, like, a farmer? Yeah. Yeah. You bought one to, like, eat? Yeah, yeah, dude. I would, like, you buy a whole cow, and you got, like, 300 steaks in the fridge. He doesn't have a freezer yet, though. I need to buy. Where are they going to get that? Well, the cow's still alive. Like, they're. They're big. Basically feeding the cow, building it up. And then. So you, like, got to pick your cow? Yeah. Well, no, they picked it for you. I just. I just paid for it. Yeah. Any chances is a scam. I don't know. You might not get all the cuts from the same cow, but, like, so it's not one specific cow. Maybe not, but you'll get what you asked for. So these kids would show the bulls. They weren't bulls being used to ride, like, 4H kids or. Yeah, like, 4H kids. FFA kids. So, like, my oldest brother was an FFA officer F. A state officer, and then I was an area officer. I actually did the talent show, too, and I played, like, three songs, and I. I freaked out and messed it up, and then I did American Idol after that, and. And was a little nervous. I wasn't ready for that yet. And anyways, though, but ffa? Yeah. I've just tried to, like, pour into that as much as I can, because I think music's important. Country music's important. I think also it's important to show people where their food comes from. It's like, some people do really believe chocolate milk comes from brown cow. They really do. They're like cows that eat chocolate. You know, like, if they eat onions, it'll taste like onions. That's true. But, like. Oh, really? It will affect the milk, man. I'D love a hamburger that already had mustard flavor in it. So maybe we feed cows mustard to get a burger with already the mustard flavor. That's true. That's true. Mustard, ketchup, lettuce. I didn't know you did American ice.
