Any idea why my adapter won't recognize the function here? Excuse the messy code. This is just driving me nuts.

You're trying to call a method as a static function. What you want is

interface OnDeleteItemClickListener {
    companion object {
        fun onDeleteItemClick(position: BarrelFreestyle)
    }
}

If you want to set that function as the listener though, you'll probably want to do

holder.deleteIcon.setOnClickListener(OnDeleteItemClickListener::onDeleteItemClick)

if it is supposed to be a method, that is

Thanks so much. I'll take a look at that. I still can't get it to work but I'm getting really tangled up and need to take a break. I’m mostly not understanding why it works to get the function from the other adapter’s interface and not from this one. But getting too frustrated to think clearly 😑

I've been there before :)

Looking at the logic, I'm assuming you need to pass an instance of OnDeleteItemClickListener to the adapter instead of calling the companion object.
