We're going to recap everything from my time in CIL at beer bowl, the deuce as well as take another look at some of the weird stuff you guys have sent us on the show. Whoa.
Of course there is very little happening in the world of football right now as everybody is gallivanting the world and not playing football well speaking of gallivanting the world we're going to get into travis taking the stage at wembley but first don't you get too excited new news brought to you by mtv's the challenge 40 battle of the eras premiering wednesday, August 14th at 8, that's Eastern, the correct time zone, 7 Central. What? Only on MTV.
That's right. Yeah, 92%ers.
Thanks for tuning in to this episode. It's the end of season two, which I don't even know what seasons mean.
We just do this show. All that means to us is that we got a nice couple months off from podcasting because I guess in three weeks' time, Travis will be in the middle of training camp.
Yeah, literally. And let me tell you, not enough time to do a podcast, especially the best podcast in the world.
All right, now. He's going to be busy focusing on football uh getting in shape for this upcoming season so we're gonna be off for about two months when's the next episode coming do we even know september end of august do we even know when we're doing this again i'm down to pick it back up once we're done with training camp intern brandon says end of august with a question mark so apparently he doesn't know either yeah so i think we're gonna start this up when when travis gets out of training camp we'll get back to giving you guys this podcast i hope you guys enjoyed season two we should have a blast uh as always we're we're coachable anything you guys have that you think would make the show better our way you guys appreciate it more send it over you know what i mean we're a democratic process although crown Royal believes in royalty, which we do too, because technically they are a sponsor.
We also are a democratic process oriented show. We very much believe in taking ideas and, uh, and, uh, different, um, uh, requests that you guys might have to make this show better.
Either way, we're all, all throughout season of this show. We're going to be updating all the show's social pages.
We might drop some never before seen footage on social and YouTube. That's terrifying if you ask me, but should be entertainment nonetheless.
Hopefully, they're not going to sabotage us because they got a lot of stuff they can put out. What are you going to do with your off time in the off season, Trav? Jason, I go to work in three weeks.
No, yeah, but so for the next three weeks, do you have anything? I'm playing in the American Century golf tournament with you. We're doing it.
You've done it for, what, six years now? How many times have you done it? Four or five. I think this is my fifth year so this is five five five uh this is my first time out in lake tahoe do you have any advice to the american century classic my advice would be just don't feel bad if you hit somebody because they bought the ticket oh knowing it's a bunch of it's a bunch of amateurs out there trying to play golf so So don't feel bad.
People have gotten hit before. They got EMS or EMTs, whatever it's called.
They got those right there at every hole. Everybody would be fine.
Well, that happened. That actually happened at what? Not the American Century Classic with you and Pat.
It was the match.

Shout out to Clay.

That was not one of anybody's favorite moments because that was the first time I'd ever seen somebody look like they got sniped from about 300 yards away.

It was crazy.

Well, thankfully, everybody's right.

Yeah, everybody's right.

What does the course play like?

Greens fast?

Are they?

Greens are typically pretty fast, yeah. You're up in the mountains.
You're in the altitude. So the ball is going to fly.
So get ready to kind of club down at least 10 to 15 yards. That far? That much further? I mean, if you really get – especially if you send it up in the air.
Like if you keep the ball low, I think you're good. But I'm pretty sure you don't have that much control over the ball so i would just yeah people people decide whether it goes high or low i thought you just hit nope you can yep if you're good enough i can't but if you're good enough so i just clubbed down 15 yards 10 to 15 does a favor does a favor a draw or a fade the course itself probably favors a fade just a little bit fuck what you you're a you're a snap hooker huh i am yeah if it comes out right it could be a fade or a draw but if it comes out wrong typically it is like a sharp turn left oh yeah that's a snap hook yeah yeah yeah we got to stay away from that that will get you in the shit trying do you know how the greens break at played it for five years? I mean, I'm familiar with the course.
I've played it probably close to 15, 20 times now, playing it over the years. It's been pretty similar every single year.
Oh, wow. I can't really think of any changes they've made to the course.
So, yeah. I'm expecting to do better than I've done the past five years.
What have your scores been, if you don't mind me asking? Atrociouscious i don't even look at the score after the second day the last sunday is typically me walking straight from the parking lot to the green and just hoping that i get through it without uh passing out now the nice thing is that you can't shoot over what an eight no double you just can't double i mean you can't triple after a six you just pick well depending on whether it's a par three, par four, par five. So if it's a par four, do I stop at six or seven? Six, just pick the ball up.
Oh, that is going to save me. Because I'll have some great holes, but what really does me in are the snowmans.
That's a really like just. Yeah, those aren't fun.
Gets my score all sorts of screwed up. Well, the thing is, is that a double.
So you just go. So if you're putting for par.
Well, yeah, want it so if you're if you're on you gotta think of it as you're like hey i'm just going right at you gotta think of it as points no you gotta think of it as points because a bogey you don't lose any points it's not like total score it's not total it's not you don't add up like whether you got a three on a hole it's like whether or not you got a birdie par bogey or double a double bogey is minus two points a birdie i believe is plus three points so it's like it's a point system so as long as you're a par is a point a bogey is nothing you're just you're even who came up with this point system i think it's fun it's a way of just like keeping everybody in the game yeah because if you get an eagle i think that's like six points oh dude i cannot wait to eagle some par fives they're all they're all reachable i think i've done that once in my life i got lucky there's one the first par five might be the toughest one to eagle i i haven't eagled that one yet but i've eagled just about all the other ones that just tells you how atrocious i play the rest of the tournament i was about to say if you're eagling all right there we go well now i'm officially terrified do we know who we're golfing with yet um no man but we got some fun we got some good additions this year outside of just you yeah there's there's some good additions we got there's a lot of people teller is always one of our boys is always out there he's signed up uh who else is out there my guy chan p chan parsons, Blake Griffin making an appearance as rookies in the tournament. That's right.
We saw Blake out in France. Hell yeah.
I heard Jimmy Fallon. Rob McElhenney is a new addition to the...
Keep my putter away from Jimmy. There you go.
Yeah. Around lakes.
Around any of the ponds or lakes. Don't miss a putt or just don't hand him it.
You might fucking... But then, I'm not going to lie.
He got me a he, he got me a golden. Jimmy has to see any of my, he got me a golden putter after that.
So it was really nice. So maybe you just, what, what is the, is it a mallet putter? Is it a blade? It's a regular face.
It's just a golf putter. It's not one of those fucking like turtle heads or like, like flying saucers.
But does it have like a back on it? Or is one that's like ambidextrous where like, it's the same on the front as it is the back? No, no. Is that what you go? Is that what you put with? You put with a putt putter.
It's called a bullseye putter from a Scotty Cameron. I don't know why I like the, I like when it just looks like it's just like a fuck.
Yeah. You can see it.
You can see, I just feel like I can, I believe I'm better at knowing knowing right away whether I'm pushing or pulling like a putt.

And I feel like I hit it straight-ter usually.

The issue comes with controlling distance because there's not a lot of help in the form of weights.

And if you want that thing to move, you got to give it a little bit of gas.

And that is in.

That's not always the case out in Tahoe.

Keep it calm. One thing you have to wear are uh pants jason make sure you bring golf pants you have to wear it's all i wear i don't have to wear i actually exclusively only wear golf pants when i'm sorry that's more of a like um i know i'm gonna be outside in the sun for four hours and i'm not a big sunscreen person so i prefer to wear long pants oh and uh bring chapstick because the altitude gets you by by like the second third day i don't i don't i do not wear chapstick all right well your lips are just gonna be chapped as fuck so you're good i'm i they'll eventually they'll auto regulate these babies auto regulate the mustache also keeps the moisture on jace i'm not sure if you understand how that works i climbed mount kilimanjaro and didn't bring chapstick and my lips were completely different i i don't wear chapstick chapstick is is big chapstick causes your lips to dry out and then you have to put more chapstick on so i just don't put the chapstick on in the first place and my lips don't dry out.
I actually, Kylie wears chapstick. And sometimes when I kiss her,

I get it on my lips and then I'm furious,

but I don't tell her because she's my wife and I love her.

But yeah,

really good things you do for love.

You know,

I'm anti chapstick dude.

Barkley.

How can we forget about Barkley?

Well, he's announcing it though.

No,

he plays in it every year.

Oh,

I didn't know that.

I thought he was like a commentator of it.

Yeah.

That's where I really got to hang out with him for the first time was playing golf with him.

Dude, I played golf with Chuck and Mike Quick, maybe that two weeks ago. It's so fun.
Nice. I mean, I don't know if you can have a bad time around Chuck.
You can't. He's so fun.
Those guys were cracking me up. Jerome Bettis.
He was there my first year. Actually, I took a shuttle to the airport with the bus and his family and just was kind of like picking his ear on like just being a professional and stuff.

And it was cool to, I don't know, just get the wisdom from one of the greatest ever do it.

Yeah, he's awesome.

I mean, it's my favorite player growing up.

So, yeah.

So it'll be a fun time.

That's what I'm doing with some of the free time I got left.

And outside of that, I'll be working and getting ready for year 12, brother. Sounds good.
Let's get this thing moving to some fan mentions of the week. We've been tagged in a bunch of pictures of people with Kelsey tattoos over the past couple of years.
But we have this new this guy who is this I am good pastor from i don't know where but he got a tattoo of garage beer a garage beard oh my gosh holy cow this is intense this is actually a really good really good like drawing this is pretty good no they nailed it actually i thought it was fake at first like it was like one of those like uh you just put water on it and put it on the leg and then peel it away. No, that is real deal, Holyfield.
How do you know? How can you tell the difference? I'm just, I don't know. You're right.
I mean, more power to him if he actually did this. This is sweet.
Well, now we got to take Garage Beer to the fucking moon so he doesn't regret this. Brandon is saying he did it for $50 in free GarageBio merch.

Wow.

And then we had someone who was at the celebrity bartending event

in Seattle, which we'll get to a little bit later,

but get Jason's signature tattooed on almost immediately

after he met Jason, actually.

Yep.

Yeah.

No, I remember doing this in the bar. I remember her telling me she was going to do it, and then she actually did it.
You couldn't make it look Jason, actually. Yep.
Yeah. No, I remember doing this in the bar.

I remember her telling me she was going to do it, and then she actually did it.

You couldn't make it look nice, Jason.

Dude, that was as good as I could do, signing somebody's skin.

I thought that that looks pretty good.

God damn it.

That doesn't look good?

It doesn't even look proportionate.

Well, I'm signing an arm, a forearm.

I think that's a pretty good, that's pretty much what my signature always looks like.

Yeah, it looks like a little kid just scribbled on it, but that's you. That's what you're, you've always had chicken scratch.
Yeah. I'm not known for my handwriting, but I think that's part of one of the things that makes it look unique.
It's wonderful. The six is smaller than the two.
It doesn't look like they're on the same level. Were you, were you hammered at this point uh probably and i'm also signing behind a bar

on somebody's forum reaching over like it was not an ideal location to sign somebody's unique

what the fuck is this creepy thing in the background of the middle photo what do you mean

do you see that there's like a head on a pole yeah it is an interesting kind of watch out those

philly fans man they're there's some interesting people yeah yeah would you ever get a tattoo of no anything i we talked about it yeah we talked about doing like a family crest or something like that or have some fun that me you and dad could have got or something i don't know i would i would i would still be open to it i just don't have the creative like desire to want to to get a tattoo. Yeah, it's the forever thing that really puts a damper on.
It's like, I just don't know. I think all of it looks sweet.
I just don't know what a tattoo, what one tattoo would look like on me. Yeah, I've never pulled the trigger either.
Don't plan on it. I might get wedding ring tattoo because I take my ring off to do a lot of things.
I don't like having rings on. You're notorious for losing rings, Jason.
You don't have to explain yourself. Yep.
So I've thought about just getting a tattoo. So I like.
How does Kai feel about that? That's the real question. The tattoo? Yeah.
Does she, she's like, oh, she's indifferent. She's like, yeah, if you want to do that or not.
I mean, she's a little upset that I lose my ring sometimes. And yeah.
Worst tattoo people can get.'s the worst tattoo people i don't want to put people on blast i mean i i think a garage beer tattoo is about as bad as it gets no dude that was sweet i think the worst tattoo somebody could get is like when they uh when they put when they get a tattoo of like a team winning a championship and then they don't win the championship. Yeah.
I think that's probably the worst one you could do. I don't like ultra realistic tattoos.
Oh, I'm so in. Or like portraits of people.
That's where I'm in. Because you like those? Yeah.
See, I'm out on it because one, I don't think it usually looks that good unless you have like a really good artist who like nails it. Yeah.
But then two, it just doesn't take into account that the body is going to sag and move over time and that that face is going to look absolutely horrendous in like 20 years. Yeah.
I think you're onto something. Have you ever seen like the little patches, like the patch tattoos? It looks like somebody like sewed a patch on onto you no i'm in on that though that

sounds yeah i would do that i don't know what the patch would be but i'd do it the tribal stuff looks good but if you're not like if you're not samoan or polynesian if you're a white guy with tribals it's just i'm judged if you want to get a tribal tattoo that's on you i mean they look so they look sick they look i think i'm in on patterns i like patterns so well the patterns are great but you can do patterns without like culturally appropriating not that i'm into like i'm all fine with stealing culture i mean this is what we do but yeah that's what we do the oh another one when you get uh writing in a different like language yeah i'm out so out it's the same thing as the tribal it was so funny i don't want to name any names but one of the guys on the team at cincinnati got an asian letter tattoo on him like it was like the it was like a a tattoo of likeian lettering right and it was supposed to mean like live wild or something like that or like live free you know something spiritual and whatnot to him or something that was meaningful to him and uh we asked our asian uh trainer uh she knew what that and she was like that means absolutely nothing yeah no that's uh that's gibberish. Those are four random symbols.
You just got absolute nonsense drawn on you. And that happens all the time.
I would assume it probably happens more than you would assume. I'm against that as well.
Yeah, I'm not against. I don't like I'm whatever.
Whatever floats your boat, do whatever you want. Whatever floats your boat, finds a lot from Moe.
We learned that from Outkast. What is the best and worst location for tattoos that's the real question and i kind of have like an idea because i get dry needled a lot in some like very oh so you're going more pain i was just talking about like worst stamp that's a bad one right especially if you're a guy i mean it's a bad location for a tattoo zone i would i was gonna go face face is it's just a strong move it is to get a face it is but it's if it's done tastefully i appreciate it i don't know i haven't seen one that i've appreciated yet posty man post malone's got a few i like post listen i think post is amazing but i think it's i'm not yeah i'm you're indifferent about it i hear you you.
I'm not indifferent. I do not like face tattoos.

I was trying to save you there.

I know you're trying to save me, and I love posts.

And I think, listen, the guy's got way more swag and style than I do.

I'm just not into the face tattoos.

Arm.

Arm.

You don't like arm tattoos?

Probably.

No, it's the best.

Oh, you switched it up.

All right.

Best spot?

I would probably say back.

You can always hide it, and then.'ll say upper arm back like upper arm is one that's like whenever you're in like a specific setting like you don't have to have it yeah but then when you want to show it off wear a little cut off boom arm tattoos out nice my man dunphy uh shout out to uh the fanatic has the the fanatic's nose tattooed around his belly button you've seen him you've seen the guy looks good yeah let's keep this thing moving that does it for uh fan mentions of the week shout out to everybody getting tattoos man 92 percent thanks to our sponsor audible hey let audible expand your life by listening That's right.

Hey! Talk about some beer bowl number two. Beer bowl the deuce.
All right, Jason, you got out of the house last week,

went down to the shore, had yourself an absolute blast,

not only with beer bowl two, but the Eagles Autism Foundation.

That's right.

We put on our, man, I think that's our fourth.

It's either fourth or fifth.

I could lose track.

It's got to be more than that, yeah.

They're calling it like the Kelsey Bash.

I don't like that name.

I don't know how that name got.

Of course you don't.

We don't like doing that.

Yeah, I think the better name that i want it to be known as is shore birds it's a bunch of birds down at the shore birds fans birds players there's a lot of players and fans there are celebrities there that actually weren't really birds but it uh it ties in now yeah that that event was tremendous ryan hamm, who runs Eagles Autism Foundation. Shout out to Roy.
Yeah, is the one who's put that together from the start. And then her and Kai have really taken it to another level.
Each and every year, they somehow add more pieces to it. And this year, between the event on Wednesday, which was the guest bartending at the Ocean Drive, best bar down at the shore, combined with the beer bowl at the Seattle City Yacht Club, we were able to raise I'm hesitant to say this, but this is the last number I heard, which was just north of $850,000.
Damn! Man! Yeah, it's pretty incredible. It's our biggest number by far yet.
And it's still counting, I believe. They're still kind of getting all that together for an official number.
So I don't even know that I should say a number. But yeah, it's the Eagles Autism Foundation is an incredible foundation that there's a lot of work in the autism community, whether it's towards funding research programs for families and support systems, as well as avenues for careers for people on the spectrum.
They do a whole lot of things supporting the entire autism community and awareness. That's awesome, man.
It's an honor for us to participate in it. It's something that has been near and dear to Kylie's heart for her whole life.
And since meeting her and being involved with the community, it's now near and dear to my heart. So it's been something that's been awesome to be a part of.
And the fact that the Eagles started their own version of it, uh i mean just five or six years ago too uh it's it's it's really just been fantastic to partner with them and take it to this level gotta love it when it when it really takes off and you get the support of the community um even as far away as the shore you know what i mean like that's just it's awesome man it's awesome what you and the uh the eagles are doing with with the um the autism foundation yeah i'm glad you're saying that because it's not just me there's a ton there's tons of eagles that come out every year yeah you know fletcher cox now it's come multiple years everybody that comes like almost routinely and you've said this too it's like the their favorite it is so charity event they've ever done because it's just a party it's not not, it's about really just uniting behind a cause for a day that really means something in all of our joint lives and community. And just having a blast celebrating being around each other.
You know, obviously there are drinks involved. Yes.
But it's just about having a good time and supporting this wonderful cause. And it's turned into something much bigger than we ever anticipated.
It's just a lot of fun. Well, I can only imagine not only what you guys are doing in terms of raising funds, but what you guys are doing for the shore, man.
The shore is obviously it's an amazing place and it's got a lot of families that go there for the summers and stuff but i'm sure you guys are bringing in a uh a plethora of people um that are that are hanging around the shore for an extra day or a weekend that uh they they typically don't see so it's um it's awesome to see man it's awesome to see uh highlights of the bartending though the od is i mean it's one of my favorite places ever uh how was that oh as, as usual, it's chaos. It's a packed house.
Everybody's trying to get items signed and drinks, and you're trying to figure out, you know, who are you actually taking money? I mean, people are just hanging money out of their hands at all times. You're trying to navigate, you know, who am I getting to? And there's no way you're going to get to everybody.
The last time I was there, it got to the point where I was doing $100 chug-offs. Like if you.
Oh, that's still a thing. $100.
That's a good one. That's a good one.
That's the bar. Well, that's also how you get shit-faced.
That is how you get shit-faced. The real way you get shit-faced, and I tell this to everybody who's coming for the first time, is shots.
You can't do liquor. Like you got gotta stick to just beer because you can't chug the stomach's only so big chugging beer right but if you start mixing in like little you know out shots you're gonna be you're gonna be under the table unless your name is landon diggerson that dude can drink it's like an endless well he has a keg it's unbelievable keg it's unbelievable that's the key you can do the chug off but just don't do liquor i'll do shots of beer like if somebody wants to do shots i'll pour beer in a shot glass and i'll do that with them but i ain't like doing whiskey not for that event that's fair that's how you get through yeah gotta set boundaries drinking boundaries are very important ladies you gotta last it's a four-hour event and it's like non-stop did you have to chug off with your uh your boyfriend the radio again this year or no no and we need to redo that i i owe i owe seltzer my bad sorry seltzer i forgot your name brother i and james actually used to work for the eagles he was like dude he was awesome i don't know he's a good dude.
Yeah, and I don't know what his – I think – I forget what his official title was,

but he was like the first one back when I first started in the league that – like when teams first started hiring social media-specific like content creators, that was what Jimmy was doing. And he was always asking questions and stuff like that.
So we got to get an actual pint chug off and not a liter of beer and surprise him like that.

Cause he was,

he was definitely unprepared for it.

He was,

we snuck it up on him.

It was,

it'll be all right.

Um,

let's get the same movement.

Jason,

one of the biggest,

uh,

one of the biggest,

most viral moments of the weekend was this clip right here of you locking

eyes with Kylie during your guys's favorite song.

Thank you. most viral moments of the weekend was this clip right here of you locking eyes with kylie during your guys's favorite song or one of them which one which which one oh uh scat man is that your official scat man dance no that was a new that was just that was just it came out of you that was just like it just was a natural moment it just felt like the right thing to do there's not a lot of space in that stage of flip cup so it had to be limited to upper body movements and that's what felt right in the moment well everybody was saying you actually cheated on that first flip cup they said you guided the cup oh i definitely cheated unless if you don't call me out on it i'm gonna fucking i'm cheating again we've been over this i am taking advantage if you guys are not smart enough to watch my offhand i am going to assist there's no doubt and they so like the third person i think it might have been sid i'm trying to remember who was third in line might have been dallas i think dallas was really struggling that's what you're not going to see a Kelsey guy do.
And I started struggling on have been Sid. I'm trying to remember who was third in line.
It might have been Dallas. I think Dallas was really struggling.

That's what you're not going to see a Kelsey guy do.

And I started struggling on that first one.

And as soon as the other person flipped it, you know, the attention goes to the next person drinking.

That's an easy, hey, whoops, I left hand.

You're stuck in there.

Anybody see it?

Nope.

Nailed it.

Delete this, please.

Do not give away the Kelsey strategy.

We cannot give away.

That, my friend, is a flanker move.

I've ever fucking heard of one.

Thank you. Nailed it.
Please do not give away the Kelsey strategy. We cannot give away.
That, my friend, is a flanker move. I've ever fucking heard of one.
Oh, no doubt. Oh, the tension's over there, boys.
Nobody's looking at me. Oh, my God.
You see how fast he's chugging that beer? By the way, Scatman. Scatman is a song, before we move on, was a song that...
Did Dad used to play that for us? Why is that such a song that rings into my my head was it just popular in the 90s i think it was early yeah late 90s early 2000s yeah i think it was just our childhood i forget there was a movie that played it that had it in it maybe i think we were just we were just into it do you know what that song is about dude it's about stuttering so the guy who sings it scatman john was a, was a stutterer. And he couldn't, like he stuttered in like an everyday talk.
So he had to learn to pronounce words correctly and like use his mouth in a certain way that made him really good at scatting quickly. And then he decided to write a song because when he was scatting, people couldn't tell that he was stuttering.
And then the whole song is like an uplifting song about like how like if the

scat man could do it. So like the whole thing is about

uplifting people to overcome trials

and tribulations, which just made me like

the song that much more. Besides the fact

that it's a fucking banger. So shout out to

Scat Man John. I'm a scat man.

It's classic.

I can't even do it.

Because you're not a scatman. It's classic.
I can't even do it.

Because you're not a scatman. Ba-da-ba-da-ba-bee-ba-ba-ba-da-boop.

Ba-ba-ba-da-boop.

Ba-ba-ba-ba-da-boop.

Ba-ba-ba-da-ba-ba-ba-bee-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boop.

That's pretty good.

That's pretty good.

Yeah.

Was it?

Gosh, I want to feel like it was in like Night of the Roxbury or something.

But that was a different song.

It's like Night of the Roxbury, like maybe The Mask.

Curly, what are you doing up there? Did you scat man do you like scat man that's the real reason i've gotten back into scat man the kids love it not basketball it's in a movie you're right but i just i like thinking about basketball moving on to beer bowl deuce as everyone probably saw this year it was a nautical-themed beer bowl.

Yeah.

You came in on the boat.

Water was present.

We were on the bay at the Seattle City Yacht Club.

We had a boat entrance.

For those of you that's on social, that's why the giant golden baby was on the top of that boat where we introduced all the teams. I feel so bad for whoever had to get that fucking baby on top of that boat.
Dude, I don't know how they did it. I really don't.
Was it you, Brandon? Was it Kayla? Did you make Kayla do that? That is definitely like a three-person job. None of us.
Okay, well, so the Carefree Boat Club somehow got it up there. Shout out to them.
Shout out to them. But no, it was electric it was it was there's a lot happening

i'm not gonna lie it was and kylie was helping uh but it made me realize how important travis

kelsey is to the show because he was sorely missed and the ability to just bullshit when

there was nothing to fucking talk about there was like moments when the boats are going by

there's nothing happening there's no card and

i'm like hey you know look at that horse costume and like because i'm on a dock by myself i'm

getting nothing from anybody i felt like the biggest jamoke of all time just standing out

there like all right guess i'll wait for the next boat well that's me that's what i bring to the

table i can bullshit with the best of them so but it was a ton of fun. And it was an electric competition, too.
And the finale, the winner, I mean... Dude.
It was so spectacular. I love it.
So talk to me. I only saw what was online, so you've got to walk me through.
What was the best costume? Doped Up Horses was a good costume. The Red Hot Wieners.
So I had that right. Two hot dogs.
I mean, all of them were good. There were some great themes.
There really were. The Tush Pushers had their bare asses coming out.
Which was hilarious. Santa's Revenge.
We had Santa and his elf who ultimately ended up taking the contest. Ooh, Fire and Ice got smoked, huh? Well, so Fire and Ice lost in Stump, the semifinals, which they were smooth sailing into the semis.
I thought up until that game, it was going to be a repeat. I thought Fire and Ice was taking it again.
I thought they looked like incredible form and Jimmy McElroy and Chaz Michael Michaels were dominating. Classic.
Once it got down to the stump though, that's where that was the most different game. Oh, the hammer.
Yeah. Some people called it stump in college.
Some people called it hammer schlugging.

But usually when you're playing it that way, you throw the hammer up,

and however you catch it is how you have to hit the nail.

We didn't want hammers going airborne.

So we just had the hammer at a stump.

You had to chug, go down to the stump, hammer,

and the first team to get a nail flush.

Every time you did that, you got one swing.

The first team to get a nail flush won.

Fire and ice were going with the second matchup of that. And it wasn't even like they were doing bad.
But they were kind of screwing up. You had to leave the hammer there, whatever.
But before you knew it, the Stone Cold Savages, who was a second place team, they had their nail pretty much in the stump. I'm like, what the fuck? These dudes have been nailing this thing literally every time.
And then it's like almost immediately after they won, Stone Cold just freaking shows his arm to me. And he has a fucking hammer tattooed on his arm.
This guy's been here before. I guess the guy's like a general contractor.
It's a trade. I'm like, all right.
That makes sense. How the fuck are these guys moving so quick on this? He's like, dude.
He made quick work. I got us.
Let me go first. The Stone Cold Savages were also dominant.
I honestly thought whoever won that matchup was going to win the whole thing because the Stone Cold Savages and Fire and Ice were the best two teams leading up into that. But Santa's revenge.
It's all about the events, man. It was a Christmas miracle.
Christmas miracle there at the end. Gotta love a good Christmas.
Santa housed that beer. He nailed it.
It was like milk and cookies. I knew Santa could house a beer.
You could see it on his fucking face. Dude, and he was jolly as shit.
Played Mariah Carey's All I Want From You. That's good stuff, her Christmas song.
What was the best event? Stump was probably the best because that was the most, like we didn't know how it was going to go. Like me and Brandon looked at each other maybe halfway through.
Kylie had to leave during Stump because one of the returning teens, Birds of War, the guy threw threw up in his hand and if you know anything about kylie she does not do vomit was a squeamish what is it called yeah and i didn't even know what happened it was like something like it wasn't like a project like it was like a apparently he just like did it real quick i didn't even notice it but kylie did and she was out he found out she was like yeah i'm done with i'm done with this stupidity i'm gonna purposely yak in front of kylie the stumped game was the most action it was fast there was action involved and that was why it was the best probably although i'm always partial to beer ball huge beer ball fan i think stumped was probably the most electric event before we get the beer ball in the celebrity bracket let's, let's talk about Kai. Obviously, she had to dip because she saw something she didn't want to see.
But how was she? She bring the juice? She was outstanding. She's Kai, right? She kills everything she does.
I did feel like it was the hard – you know as well as I do, it's very hard to host a live event that's happening right in front of you because you're trying to like stay on topic but you're also trying to be in the moment yeah we did better once we got inside because i was able to tell her like hey listen okay i'll just do the play-by-play like announcing what's happening in front of me and i was able to hand her kind of like the cards with some some of the back stories of the teams on them so that she could kind of just go into that portion of it. Yeah.
You just had a better flow of things. Yeah.
But I will say, I thought our team did it. Brandon let her up to dry.
They did not do a good job of compiling data on those cards. I was a little bit upset, but yeah, it was all right.
It's fine. God damn it, Brandon.
She did great.

She's kind.

How dare you fucking make Kylie feel uncomfortable?

Well, no, the only person that felt uncomfortable was me.

Kylie handled it like a pro.

I was the one who was like, guys, I can't operate without these cards.

You know I need these cards.

You're such a fucking prima donna.

All right, let's get to the celebrity bracket. Shout out to Kai for stepping in.

Love you, Kai. I'll never put you in that situation ever again.
All right, let's get to the celebrity bracket. Shout out to Kai for stepping in.
Love you, Kai. I'll never put you in that situation ever again.

All right. Celebrity bracket featuring Todd Harriman.

Haven't seen Todd in a while. Connor Barwin, Ross Tucker, Carl

Nassib, Bo Allen, Sidney Brown made an appearance

and Maniac Malloy. That's right.

And the Waze CEO, Brian Verne. Cleveland's finest.
That's right. Maniac Malloy.
That's right. And the Waze CEO, Brian Verne, Cleveland's finest.
That's right. Our boss was a full-on competitor in the field.
Dude, I respect it. You got to get in.
I was like, man, I hope Brian doesn't lose. I don't know if I can actually say that Brian lost.
I don't know what happened. Well, who ended up taking it? It fell apart.
It really started to fall apart with Carl just leaving. Shout out to Carl for showing up.
He showed up Wednesday. He showed up Thursday.
I'm very appreciative of Carl showing up. But Carl left about halfway through.
He had enough, huh? He said he had a boat told me he had a date. And I'm like, all right.
Well i guess just fucking do whatever you want like no i'm joking so then we didn't have like enough people to play with so i had to join bo's team oh yeah and then todd had to leave so it kind of just all fell apart and then we did a a baby bottle chug to end it which was the worst fucking thing why would you guys was like chucking champagne. It just doesn't work.
We were trying to figure out another event to add, and it was going to be the winners of the celebrity bracket were going to go off against the winners of the amateur bracket. And whoever finished the baby bottle was going to get another prize.
But it kind of was all over after san and then won fifty thousand dollars

nobody gave a fuck and then us four just chugged a baby bottle and like when you're sipping like beer through a nipple it just turns to all foam of course it does it was so disgusting why it was so gross it makes no sense to do that you guys are ridiculous it was really stupid all right well you playing you and

Bo playing who is that Todd

and Maniac Malloy

yep You guys are ridiculous. It was really stupid.
All right. Well, you playing, you and Bo playing, who is that, Todd and Maniac Malloy? Yep.
You guys playing beer ball against each other looked like it was absolute chaos. No, it was not chaos at all.
It was over lickety split made quick. You know that this is my best game, Trev.
It is. I am the Wayne Gretzky.
You're the Michael Jordan. Yeah.
I don't know that this is my best game trev it is i am the wayne gretzky the michael jordan yeah they i don't know that i've i mean i might have been beaten before i've never seen it yeah i mean it's just a game that i've got all the strategy down um i know how to operate it and i mean it just happens so fast before you even have a chance to react i don't know why this is the picture that they put on the fucking rundown but it's because bo is showing off and is just he's definitely he knows that camera's behind him and he's just like purposely he's peacocking right now he is he is he is showing that thing off because that thing he he has the tightest shorts imaginable already on top i mean that's that he that's what he wears he's a tight short guy i think he actually bought this outfit kylie him and ryan were at a store uh well i was at home with the kids and they went to his this store and he put this on and everyone told him it was too small and he said no what are you guys talking about this fits about? This fits great. He knows what he's doing.
He's showing off that physique. That's a lot of squats that have earned that right.
Well, Ross Tucker did bleed all over the table during beer ball. Ross deserves an award for like highest energy of all the, like right after flip cup, he was bringing it.
It was. Oh, well, he's always going to bring the juice now ross was a a wonderful addition to both wednesday and thursday this year tons of energy uh really made the event fun throughout and uh yeah he was he was dominating as well his his thumb bled because he knew the strategy because he played with connor of beer ball which I'll give you.
This is if you're ever playing beer ball,

you know that you can't open the can until your partner hits the beer.

The problem with drinking out of a can is that you're limited with how fast

the beer comes out.

Yeah.

So the strategy,

if you've ever played the game and you know what you're doing is to peel

the hole down with your thumb.

It's all about airflow.

The problem is when you don't know how to do that at like an angle, like if you're an experienced guy, you know, it's like a can opener. Yeah.
Yes. If you don't roll it and you go straight down, you're going to cut your thumb almost every time.
And that's exactly right. Yeah.
We've all been there. We've all been there.
Well, shout out to Ross for bringing the juice and, uh, walking along with the gas. Fuck it.
He just said the guy was giving it his all. Nice.
Are we doing it again next year? I mean, yeah, why not? If people want to, I will say this. We were doing another event on the back of the dock that involved the water where teams, the alternate.
So every year we invite alternate teams, mainly in case teams that are supposed to be there for the event don't make it there on the day of. We still have 16 teams.
Yeah. So this year, as a change-up, after there was a playing game for the last spot, those teams participated in another event that was happening on the dock where there was garage beer out on a boat.
And they had to use a raft, paddle out to the boat, get the cans of beer. And they were allowed to get, I think, six cans of beer per trip.
And then on the dock, they had to drink them. They could recruit help from people, but somebody had to consume the beer.
And then whoever built the biggest tower of empty beer cans within a lot amount of time won that competition that was happening. I was not able to witness it, but everybody that was watching that said it was a ton of fun to witness.
That sounds like a fun gig. So I think if we do it again next year, I would like to see more incorporation of the bay in the water.
They do like grease pole competitions over water. They do.
I think that's how we do it big we you can't we have life cards it's all safe right but i think that the now that we're doing it at the seattle city yacht club i just feel like it's a waste not to utilize that water out there yeah maybe a blob have a competition for who can get launched the highest put like a wall so you can see i've always like i've always wanted to put like a 20-foot wall behind it and then you can just like see whoever gets the highest this is the x games is it highest or whoever can do the coolest like flips and stuff in the air i like highest i want to see like you want to see jordan malata launch jake elliot as high as possible I know it's water, but if you hit the water wrong, you could break something or fuck some shit up. You won't break anything.
What you will do is, and I've done this because in high school, I was trying to show off and do as many flips as possible off a diving board. You can't perforate an eardrum.
If you land sideways on your head, it will knock your eardrum loose. So we'll figure it out.
We'll figure it out. Well, we will be dropping the full Beer Bowl recap video next week, ladies and gentlemen.
That's right, 92%ers. So subscribe to the YouTube channel and see all the mayhem that Beer Bowl deuce has to offer.
All right, Trev. We got to talk about it.
Let's do it. We talked a little bit about the London trip last week, but for those of you that don't know, we were commenting really from night one because we did the show right before night two.
But on night three, something magical happened. I think everybody that is following your life would like to hear your viewpoint on

and your commentary of somehow you made your way onto the era stage.

I did.

I did.

It's very unlike me.

I'm not big.

I don't love going on stages.

Yeah, not a big.

Very shy. Not very big into being in front of crowds.
I really didn't feel at home. What can you tell us? First of all, how did this even, whose idea was this? Well, I initially mentioned it to Tay.
I was like, how funny would it be if I just like rolled out on one of the bikes during the 1989, like, yeah, I know exactly that era. She started laughing.
She was like, would you, would you seriously be up for like doing something like that? And I was just like, are you what? Yeah, I would love to do that. I've seen the show enough.
Might as well put me to work here.

And sure enough, she found the perfect, perfect part of the show for me to come in. There was no bike in case I ran into somebody else or hit one of the dancers or anything.
It was the safest option. And sure enough, Cam and Jan, a part of the uh torture poets uh era of the show are trying to bring tay back to life right trying to bring her back to life get her ready uh to um to perform the rest of the show so to speak so knowing that she can do it with a broken heart right which by the way i think that's turned into my favorite song even before this happened that's a great tune dude i'm so depressed i act like it's my birthday every day i think everybody can assimilate with like you're fucking in a shitty mood but just you gotta do it you gotta get up there and fuck hey you got shit to do yeah i love it anyways yeah true showman and it's such a fun like playful part of the show and it was like the perfect area or perfect time for me to go up there just be a ham and uh have some fun not only with her cam and yon but the the crowd and like really like try and get everybody excited for the rest of the show it was awesome it worked you guys killed it it was absolute blast it was so fun to watch and i had never i had never like like I always wanted to pull out this move, but I never knew like when I should pull it out, like an area where it made sense.
And it was the dumb and dumber Jim Carrey, like him, like doing crap dances. Oh, yes.
That's one of my favorite moves of all time. It's a great move.
And then just made sure I played with Tay and got her makeup right. It was a blast, man.
I had so much fun. It was an honor being on stage, obviously, with Taylor, but even Cam and Jan.
Knowing that me and Cam's brother, Colin Saunders, we played together. Casey won two Super Bowls together.
I finally get a chance to play against my brother yeah you already know man i get the chance to play against him this year he's down there in new orleans playing for the saints just one of my all-time favorite teammates so to be able to rock rock the field with him and now rock the stage with his brother you already know as a brother i try and like be be you know supportive of uh all the good brothers out there. The Saunders are the best.
So good brothers for life, baby. But, yeah, it was an absolute blast.
Yeah, shout out to Colin. I used to hate blocking him because I always hate blocking guys that are shorter than me and smarter.
It's the most annoying because I can't use any of my tricks and I can't get leverage on them and it's just a frustrating matchup for me he's tricky yeah so i always uh did not like blocking colin sir banky but the thing i enjoyed watching the most was the just the joy that everybody was having on the stage like you cam i mean cam's always having fun he's always got a smile on his face. I mean, even just this picture on the left of you looking at Tay and just a smile from ear to ear at like, I don't know, man.
It was just, it was so fun to watch. I wish I could have been there for that, but it was so, so cool to watch it happen.

Did you ever think in a million years you'd be a backup dancer?

Dude, I've always been a fan of dancers.

We're going to get to that in a second. I'm a big fan of backup dancers being around because they keep things alive.

You know what I mean?

I'm a team guy, too.

I'm a team guy.

You're an energy guy.

You're a team guy.

You know what I mean? I'm in here. I'm in it for everybody to have a good time here.
And it was just – it's so cool. I mean, I've seen the show so many times at this point that, like, I'll find myself in the crowd just, like, doing, like, the choreography to some of the – Yeah, like, you know the moves.
And it's fun. When the marks are.
You already know. It's fun to play along.
So for them to be up for it and not only that, help me and make me, you know, look like a pro, I guess. It was awesome.
Dude, you killed it. I mean, obviously...
I will say this. You got a lot of help.
Are you kidding me? I was up there with three professionals, okay? Exactly. You can do no wrong when Taylor's on stage because she's absolutely yes you can do some wrong you can mess up a show oh listen the one thing I told myself is do not drop the baby do not drop this do not drop Taylor on your way over this damn couch the golden rule was do do not drop Taylor.
Get her to the couch. No fun.
Because the enemy always used to say that ball has our dreams, goals, and aspirations. You do not drop that ball.
Shout out to EB over there at UCLA. Your moves between the old time he shuffles.
Dude, look at this heel click. I don't know how, but your body is at a 45-degree angle.
That's some athleticism right there. And you landed this.
Yes, of course. Like anybody else, you take a picture of this halfway through a jump, they aren't landing that.
That takes some skill. About time my heel click paid off.
I've been doing that shit since I was like a fucking toddler. That's right.
That's right. Did they cheer louder for this moment or like you scoring a touchdown in Arrowhead? Are you kidding me? Like what is the more like rambunctious crowd in that moment? I would say that the touchdown cheers last a little longer.
That makes sense. This is more like after the surprise.
When everyone found out that it was me because it took a second for everybody to figure it out. And then they kind of put the camera on me, Cam, and Jan, like the three of us coming up the stage or on top of the stage.
And that moment was pretty, like, jarring. I was just like, oh, shit oh shit whoa and you don't realize how big that damn stage is i mean dude it goes all the way out it goes from like the end zone to easily as big as a football stadium like in terms of length yeah and then on top of that it's like i mean it's almost like numbers to numbers like it is it's way bigger than i could have ever yeah ever imagined.
So being on the stage, I was just like, man, I feel tiny up here. I was just like, oh shit.
But no, it was awesome. And I didn't disappoint Taylor.
So that's all that really matters. Yeah.
Didn't mess the show up. So Travis, do not fuck this up, Travis.
That was my number one goal. Do not fuck this up.
Do not drop Taylor. Do not fuck this up travis that was my number one goal do not fuck this up do not drop taylor do not fuck this up you brought up uh background dancers and how much they add to the energy and excitement uh so the new heights team did us a solid and brought out this old tweet from travis kelsey which we know that travis has some horrendous gold in his tweet locker i just want to have permanent background dancers to my life.
They make singers look so cool. And you got to officially be a part of it.
Do you still want background dancers in your life? I mean, 2014, yeah, that was my rookie year. So, yeah.
I get flashbacks to the Family Guy episode where he just has a band following him around all day yeah that was a good episode i'm down for all that maybe not uh every day but maybe certain situations like if i score a touchdown gets back i feel like somebody did this where they like they like hired a like a new orleans street band to just follow him around i feel like this isn't like somebody... This has been thought about before, for sure.

It's electric.

You can't deny it, man.

There were other tweets. This actually happened from the night before.

This is the last night I was in town, night two.

Hugh Grant tweeted,

Dear Taylor Swift, you have an incredible show,

an amazing and very hospitable team,

an excellent, if gigantic,

boyfriend.

Hashtag, in parentheses,

tequila shots. Thanks so much

from one aging London

Thank you. team and excellent if gigantic boyfriend hashtag in parentheses tequila shots thanks so much for one aging from one aging london boy wife and thrilled eight-year-old yeah it was pretty crazy seeing hugh grant just walking around this yeah that was the set that was the second night and you were there that night i mean it wasn't just hugh it was tom cruise it was ashley kutcher and Milo.
Oh, I don't. Yep.
And then Liam Hensworth.

Yeah, Liam. hugh it was tom cruise it was ashley kutcher and uh mila oh i don't yep um and then uh uh liam hensworth yeah liam was in that thing dude it's so cool the aussies are so much fun to be around aren't they they are they know how to party that's for damn sure him i've been fortunate to meet him and his brother this offseason and both of them just don't disappoint they just seem like the coolest guys yeah they were and everybody were, and everybody was having fun in that tent.
Let me tell you. Everybody.
Part of it, too, is like Hugh had his eight-year-old there. Like the kids that are in there, mixed with like the grown adults that are acting like kids, it just leads to this energy that's so infectious.
Like you can't help. It really comes down to just the magic of the show in general and the energy it was unbelievable and the kids that were in there were like they knew every single word to every single song yeah and so do you like that's it's just like i don't know i think uh these are my first two concerts ever to.
And you realize so quickly that you know every single word to these songs. Everyone in the stadium knows every single word to these songs.
And you get just in this trance of energy that Taylor and the entire performance is exuding. But then everything, this music is exuding, everything, the fan.
It really just takes you by storm. And the breadth of young to old mixed in, it's so unlike most – there aren't that many concerts where adults and an 8-year-old can go to and they're both going to enjoy this music.
Yeah. It just doesn't happen.
Usually that's something that that you don't see and that's one of the things that was so enjoyable was just like the pure joy that like everyone doesn't matter who you are what stage of life you're in anything like everybody's having a fucking blast at this thing and that's what was so special and we can't forget uh drennan gerwig was in there having some fun with us oh yeah she had. I'm not sure who the little one was in front of her.
I didn't ask whose kid was whose, but I'll tell you what. The little girl in front of Greta was having the time of her life, and that only made me want to have the time of my life with her.
So I just started singing with her and everything. It's a blast, man.
Between the All-22 hat, the kids that are in the tent, the kids that are in the stands, the adults that are just like – there's like something where it's like this youthful enthusiasm that everybody has, and people captured it on cameras. Oh, yeah.
Like it's just – That was definitely one of the – The best way to describe it is electric. It just takes you completely by storm.
Electric. I mean, dude, you just took a photo of Julia Roberts.
I wish I would have got one with Julia. You're wearing the Irish national team.
Yeah, I believe this is the Irish national team. It might be rugby.
I'm not sure if it's soccer or if it's football. Have you seen Gaelic football played? No, I haven't.
Not to go on a tangent, but in Havertown, there's like a bunch of Irish inhabitants. And they have like a Gaelic football club that competes over in Ireland.
And I've watched it. It's an electric sport to watch.
It's kind of like soccer and football mixed together. It's weird.
I got to check it out. Yeah.
I met Julia Robertson in Ireland, in Dublin. Ireland.
Are you? That was pretty cool. She was awesome.
Still surprised? Her and Stevie Nicks were in there having some fun. Dude.
I'll tell you what. Gosh.
Stevie Nicks? You might be the only one in the family that hasn't met her yet. Mom got to meet her down in Florida.
I know. Mom met her backstage.
And she is, I mean, every bit is what everyone makes her out to be. She's so so awesome just so awesome gosh and just love to see her support and just meet her you know just some of these people you just you meet and you're just like i don't i don't know what i'm doing here you are how did i get into this you are unbelievable your talent.
How you present yourself is unbelievable. And I am just a Jamoke supporting his girlfriend.
And it's just so much fun, man. It looks incredible.
I'm glad you're enjoying it. How's Ireland been? Not in Ireland, but I was there.
I was there. Got to go to a pub, have some Guinness.
Did you go to the Guinness factory? No, I did not. Dude, you missed it.
Not a big tourist guy. Not a big tourist guy.
I just like to randomly wander. I don't like to walk through.
I agree. But there's some touristy things that are there for a reason.
The Guinness factory, they do a good job. The whole story of that brewery and how it happens.
I know it's a touristy thing, it's they do it right either way though um the that is we went to ireland after your london game

uh against detroit me mom dad and then kylie and her family because they're all irish

and the best part about ireland is just going to like random hole-in-the-wall pubs that like

all the locals go to in my opinion yeah you just get to go and interact with all them and play some

so you went to a random snooker just ran a spot oh. Yeah.
I think it's called snooker. I don't know what you're talking about.
It's pool, but it's their version of pool. Oh, yeah.
It's snooker. Yeah.
It's a bigger table, and it's like red, mostly red balls. Red and yellow balls or something like that.
The colored balls are worth more points, but you can't make those until after you make a Red Bull. Yeah.
And then if you make them, a color ball goes back in the same spot until all the Red Bulls, whatever. There's a whole like point system.
It was fun. I believe you did that.
It was an absolute blast. Got to hang out at a pub.
Got to have some Guinness on draft over there. Basically just beer, milkshakes, delicious.
Dude, it's's so good and then i had my new favorite dessert shot which is a baby guinness you ever had a baby guinness shot baby i call it a dessert shot because it was literally i think it's bailey's guinness and like maybe a whiskey shot in there like a little bit of whiskey in there and all three of them car bomb but it's like in a shot form it's like a little guy it's like a little shooter and you just that's delicious ireland was fun it was the good time i'll tell you what once you get off the plane though they have the thickest fucking accents that i've ever heard in my life they do especially if you catch one of these guys that like i think it's brogue is it maybe where it's just like dude is that english fuck that's another segment we should do is talking to other people that are supposedly speaking english and realizing that you don't know anything it's like dude what the fuck are you saying buddy that's like going down to louisiana and talking to somebody in the fucking boot from like the fucking trenches you just you just you're just like i'm sorry what'd you just say exactly yeah it's like oh it's like one of the coaches off of waterboy what is that yes it's exactly what it's like dicky leono i uh took a study of language class at cincinnati and they said that the reason that happens is because everybody the teacher told me that everybody teaches themselves language at a young age the teacher told me it's one of the things that evolves because people teach themselves what words mean and there's interpretations so like over time there's like that's what slang happens and then slang becomes normal words and then like certain cultures, there's like a higher dialect and a lower dialect. And like you can, and he gave examples of like, you know, like in New York, people that don't pronounce their Rs.

He went on to say that when, if you take two people, two groups of people that are in the same spot of the world and they speak the same language and the same dialect within, if you separate them within a hundred years, you will have a language that sounds noticeably different. There'll be two different dialects just in that short amount of time in a thousand years from two, from separating, you have two completely different languages that are like undetectable from one another.
I don't that fascinating at like i needed a teacher but i will be i will be like very curious i could have i could have fucking drew those dots and told you that but um i will i am curious on like what the original language was though is is it like spanish english i could be wrong but doesn't all english come from latin there you go yeah all romantic languages i believe are traced back to latin if i am i hope i'm right on that but sounds right and that's why romantic languages are at least the most similar for us as English speakers because all of that influence really goes back to one root language. Nice.
Once you start getting into Asian languages and Mandarin and all that stuff, I have no fucking idea. That is like a whole other world.
It's a whole other world. which is why people get tattoos that they don't know what they say way to bring it full circle well that does it for uh getting out of the house shout out to uh to tay for letting me uh jump on stage with her who knows might not be the last time you guys will have to keep showing up to these uh the airs tour to see uh to see if I pop out of the stage or whatnot.
What is he going to do next? What could I do next? What is Taylor willing to trust in this guy? I told her, I was like, yeah, no, this is how it works. Once I get comfortable, I just stop listening to what everyone says, and I start doing my own thing.
So she's got to really like – Autopilot. Him and Pat talk about it all the time.
Andy's known this for a long time. He's got to let the big guy go.
He's got great instincts. Let's keep this thing moving to no dumb questions.
All righty, no dumb questions. All right, now.
Let's get to some no dumb questions because there's no such thing as dumb questions. Just dumb people.
Let's get to our first one off of X. Rachel Hold On To Swift.
I can relate to that. What's your favorite 4th of July memory? And also, is a hot dog a sandwich? I think we talked about this last year.
Hot dogs are not a sandwich. Hot dog's a hot dog.
I don't... We don't even have to get into it.
I just don't. Why do we have to? Why do we even have to talk about whether it's a sandwich or not? Everyone knows what a sandwich is.
You look at in your head what a sandwich is. We don't need to create like a definition.
A hot dog's a hot dog. A burger's a burger.
A sandwich is a sandwich. When you think of a sandwich, you fucking have a thing in your head.
It's not a wrap. It's not like wrap it's not like has nothing to do with like this this this no it's a fucking sandwich you know what it is stop trying to play this word karate to determine what is what isn't a sandwich a taco is a taco a hot dog's a hot dog we don't need to get into this uh sandwich fluidity of bread and bun and wrap and taco and shell.

And no,

a sandwich is a sandwich.

You know what a fucking sandwich is.

Everybody knows what a sandwich is.

Hot dog is a hot dog.

Back to the original question.

Favorite 4th of July memory.

I don't know.

Drinking beer and eating hot dogs,

lighting fireworks.

We never did.

We can talk about this. We never really, we were not a fireworks household oh i'm a fireworks man now i fucking love fireworks dude growing up no ed and donna that was a hard it was a hell they were not yeah well i think dad and aunt judy knew knew someone at a young age that blew off their hand or something like that that'll'll turn you off of fireworks.
So, and especially kids around fireworks, obviously the sparklers are cool, but you don't need to be handing anybody. Like even the little smoke bombs are like a little too much.
I'm not gonna lie. I do not like lighting any of those things anywhere in my vicinity.
I am out on the fireworks. Love watching them.
Like our neighbor has has like a great fireworks display i'm going to their house for sure to watch the fireworks but i am not going anywhere near them motherfuckers nice i hear you i'm terrified of well i will say this i am uh i'm a huge fan of them um if you're looking for fireworks in the states shameless plug shameless plug here my my one of my favorite families in the world the zoldans um they have a fireworks company everybody go make sure you hit up phantom fireworks they're all over the states they're the number one firework distributor in the country i would say i'm going to say in the world just because i love them the most um but a great family, and they got great stuff if you walk in there.

So shout out to the Zoldans and shout out to Phantom Fireworks.

But moving on to my favorite 4th of July memory.

I can't really say I have just like a great one just implemented in my head. I will say, and we were talking about this earlier about the story that you

might tell here, but it's going down to Lake Lanier with the Halls and the Air Force guys. Chad, Kelly, now Stafford, all the Air Force guys.
That was something I remember forever, for sure. There is something around being around servicemen around 4th of July that just makes it that much more meaningful.
It really hits you more i feel like yeah it's hard to come up with a great memory of like fourth of july because it's really just being around the people it's it always comes down to like family friends it's the one day that we all get to celebrate that we're kind of in we're in this country together yeah like thanksgiving is more family oriented fourth of july is like no this is this is like hey we're america bubba and this is the big day that we became america so we're going to celebrate the one thing that we all have in common which is that we are americans and um it always comes the memories that you share are the ones that come down to you being with your fellow americans and celebrating that we're all from the same country and that we get the freedoms to enjoy all of these wonderful things about this world that we do. And it's a special day to think back to the people that have fought, including the people, especially in the Revolutionary War that led to July 4th.
But all of the men and women that have fought for this country, all of the men and women that have. Protect this country today.
Yeah. Yeah.
Not just protect it, but like the Industrial Revolution, like Rosie the Riveter. Like this country has become what it is because of all of its fine inhabitants that make it special.
And it's a day to really just like think about that. And is it perfect? No, we're not.
Nobody's perfect. Like I would say a lot of really, you know, terrible things in its past.
But God damn, I'm really happy of the people that are in this country, of the friends and family members, and ones that I get to share this nation with. So it's a wonderful day, and that's what it comes down to.
Yeah. As well as barbecuing and beer and water, if you're around it, maybe.
There you go. Couldn't set it any better any better brother so to everybody looking to have fun in the fourth of july have fun but be smart there's stuff there's so much stupid shit that happens every year with fireworks with water just be smart be have fun enjoy being an american with fellow americans or with other people whoever wants to celebrate it and just think, just be a smart person.
All right. Well, there you go.
That's it for no questions. Nice.
All right. It's time to raise a glass.
That's right. Finally, we've mentioned a few weeks ago that we are partnering with Crown Royal to shine a light on some of the most generous 92 percenters because Crown Royal believes that when you live generously, life will you royally hey thank you to everyone who submitted we got to read so many great stories about all the incredible 92 percenters out there but it's time to raise a glass to this week's final royal 92 percenter and that's brady collier he was submitted by hillary collier which if i'm a deductive reasoning, I would say that's a sister or wife.
She writes, Brady is an active duty military and has served in the Air Force for 13 years. Fuck yeah, Brady.
He has made multiple tours in Afghanistan where he has been awarded five air medals and has flown more than 100 combat missions. He helped relocate Afghan refugees to various places in the United States.
Brady flew on the longest ever C-130J flight of 34 hours. I didn't know a plane fly that long.
Taking the Air Force to New Heights. Yeah, you did.
34 hours? I guess they refuel mid-flight. They have that plane that comes in.
There's no way that's one tank, right? It can't be.

It's not possible. Not possible.
He enjoys making

sure that young airmen who

may not be able to make it home for the holidays

have a true home-cooked meal and don't spend

their holidays alone.

In addition to that, that's right. That is awesome.

This guy's fucking incredible. In addition to that,

he has participated in the

Arkansas Run for the Fallen, which

honors Fallen military service members. He's an active current Kansas City Chiefs Red Coder.
Yeah! Yeah! Where he volunteers his time with many organizations and activities in the Kansas City area. What's a Kansas City Red Coder, before I continue? They're the ones that greet you at the stadium.
They're basically the, they help out, get everybody like situated with tickets and like, yeah yeah they're the best they're just like they're they're the people that just they're a warm welcome for everyone gotcha and uh gotcha yeah just the absolute best people too this doesn't surprise me that brady is a red coder he also is a board member of the non-profit oath fund he helps raise money and organize events so Oath can give grants to families who are adopting children from around

the world who otherwise may not be able

to afford to bring their adoptive

children home. This is awesome.
God

damn, can this guy get any better? It's like every

time I read something, he just keeps getting better.

He has helped organize their 5Ks,

which raised over $15,000

for families this year alone.

On top of all this, he is a great father

to our four kids and actively involved in the sports that they play, hockey, baseball, and gymnastics. Nice.
Got some hockey guys. God damn, this is a great family.
Brady, where's my glass? I'm doing it. Screw it.
Screw what? What do you mean? I haven't actually raised a glass, but God damn it. Fourth of July is coming up.
Brady. I'll raise an accelerator.
I don't have any alcohol. Salute, brother.
Thank you for everything you do, man. And thank you for taking everyone else's lives to new heights.
I just got motivated just watching that, man. That's what it's about, folks.

clutter. I actually really have wanted to start having like physical copies of photographs.
