The Debrief with Shawn and Katie | #006 Travis Howze

griffin seems pretty fired up about it i. know. i wonder if his snoring is picking up on. the mic. probably. right griffey. [Music].

all right well zero zero. six travis house and the books another. signature on the board. yeah done. firefighter check yeah real quick before. we get started. what's up the hat. we did a hat donation we got 15. left we are donating to. coach moki inc which.

is uh after travis's. you know best friend and uh so. louis mulkey was a was a coach. a teacher and a firefighter who um. who died in charleston nine fire and. uh very honorably and uh so basically. what this foundation does. is they. they give scholarships to you know. underprivileged kids. yeah and so we sold we have 100 hats.

made we're selling for. 100 and. we're donating all the proceeds to this. charity and uh we have 15. left i think the proceeds will be right. around 8 000. so if you haven't bought a hat yet. there's. 15 left we're never going to make them. again nope. it's a firefighter slash vigilance elite. hat get it on the website. and for people that don't know like.

there's no website that goes along with. the. foundation yeah it's it's pretty cool. you know that's like a grassroots. foundation type thing. yeah they don't waste their [ __ ]. money on social media. or web design or any of that everything. goes. you know to the kids direct so that's. refreshing. but uh griffin seems pretty fired up. about it. i know i wonder if his snoring is. picking up on the mic. probably.

yeah anyways but uh. yeah so first of all though it was. filmed how many months ago now it was. about it was a minute ago. it was a minute ago so just like our. last debrief we're still. behind on this debrief running a little. behind a little bit. but he did get a farm i know. you know that's cool he's been looking. for a farm for. i think over a year and he's had deal.

after deal fall through. and um you know he watched our land. video. and bam closed down a farm. so sent us a couple pictures last night. right before we filmed this. that land video must bring good luck. yeah. hint wink wink and wink wink if you want. to learn check it out. uh what we look for when we're buying. land. go to the website and uh it's 1.99. yeah that's it i had so much fun filming.

that with you though babe. like that was a fun one that was a good. time. and that property sold i know you've. sold it. well you sold it to you know yeah. well we can't say who we sold it to. because they don't want to be named but. that's pretty cool anyways back to. travis but yeah. travis was a lot of fun and the way that. we. found him or he found us. was he contacted us and um.

luckily um his email really stood out to. me. and i remember telling you about him. downstairs i think at the breakfast. table and um and i was getting choked up. just telling you about the video that he. had that goes along with his website and. um. yeah yeah no i remember you know we get. a lot of. inquiries you know of people nominating. themselves to be on the show. and usually that's an automatic.

dismissal. and uh and i thought that was gonna be. too. i was like wait this guy's nominating. himself and then you showed me the video. and then we picked through the book and. did a little research and. we've been looking for a firefighter and. it was like holy [ __ ] man this guy is. like the. perfect fit man he was and um. excuse me ma'am what a. uh what a tear jerker i know but what a.

cool [ __ ] dude. he really is though and uh i just. had so much fun having him here and um. and everything that he's done i mean. firefighter cop no wait marine. firefighter cop firefighter. stand-up comedian and now author. yeah motivational speaker crazy. yeah like you're saying i'm quite the uh.

underachiever. so all you people out there that aren't. doing [ __ ] what's your [ __ ] excuse. you know or if you can't make up your. mind what you want to do just do it all. right go for it just be like travis red. line blue line green light. now he's a [ __ ] farmer yeah but um. now cool dude and uh you know ptsd. from uh first responders and mill is. just one of those things that i never. you know i never thought that got enough.

attention it never will. um but but man now he's you know. dedicating. a huge portion of his life to help. law enforcement firefighters and vets. and he fits every one of those. communities and uh. you know he wrote his book create your. own like self-published. easy read but good read and um. and i'm not a reader so and i did read. it and uh.

yeah i mean hell of a dude doing great. things. has been doing great things ever since. ever since he. you know joined the marine corps and and. ever since so. what a stand-up dude i know but. um so one thing that i really like too. is um. that he's sober yeah i think that's. really cool. did you guys talk about that yeah we did. you want to share anything well he.

didn't um. go through like aaa or the program or. anything like that so. um he just decided one day he was done. with it. well it sounds like that's when uh. everything started turning around for. him. big time so that's awesome. i know it's really cool but. but uh well. who do we got next well hold on one. thing he did want to. um well one thing he kept kind of making.

fun about. our house about was he kept calling it. the content house i don't know if he was. making fun about it but. it was the content house because we were. posting all this stuff. and tagging him all the time and having. a lot of fun with it. yeah but since then you and i are off. social media. we did i forgot about that yeah. so we're no longer there for me how long. has it been for you. um like late september. so do you miss it do i miss.

do i miss the gram yeah and all the. censorship and [ __ ] that comes with. it. yeah uh hold on let me think [ __ ] no. which is why we started. making videos and putting them on our. website because it's censorship free. and i don't have to listen to a bunch of. [ __ ] [ __ ] leave. shitty comments under our stuff yeah and. we're a lot more productive without. checking our phones and. all that and griffin agrees griffin's up.
