Speaker 1 On today's part of my take, we have our good friend Jerry O'Connell back in studio. Great to catch up with him, especially in football offseason.
We get everything.

Speaker 1 We talk to Jerry about what's going on in his life.

Speaker 1 Great time. Also, some funny conversations about our fantasy team and the DeMar fallout that we had towards the playoffs.
We have college basketball. Jim Mayheim is done at Syracuse.

Speaker 1 We're going to talk a little March Madness, Kevin Durant's injury. We've got a lot of stuff to get to.
Aaron Rodgers possibly being a jet soon, maybe in the next 24 hours.

Speaker 1 Billy's got his blogs locked and loaded.

Speaker 1 So we're ready to go on a Friday show, and we have Firefest to end it all. And...

Speaker 5 When Cool Creamy Ranch meets tangy, bold buffalo, the whole is greater than the sum of its sauce. Say howdy, partner, to new Buffalo Ranch sauce only at McDonald's for a limited time.

Speaker 2 At participating, McDonald's.

Speaker 2 No paper, behind a lot of washing.

Speaker 2 And then I can't blame all on the sounds. Oh, no, we're gonna rock it down to Electric Avenue.

Speaker 2 And then we'll take it higher.

Speaker 2 Oh, we're gonna rock it down to Electric.

Speaker 1 Part of my take

Speaker 3 presented by Barstake.

Speaker 1 Welcome to Part of My Take. Today is Friday, March 10th,

Speaker 1 and Jim Bayheim has been fired/slash retired. He's been retired, actually, is how I should phrase it.
He has been retired.

Speaker 6 He got refiremented. Yes.
It was like a combination of both. After the game, he was like, You're going to have to ask the university, well, do you want to come back? Well, I didn't say that.

Speaker 6 He went out as he lived, which is just extremely grumpy and short with the media.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's actually

Speaker 1 the interaction he had. Hank, let's do a reading real quick.
Hank will be the media. I'll be Jim Bayheim.
This is all quotes that he had after the loss to Wake Forrest. This is what he said.

Speaker 7 Are you saying right now that you're going to retire?

Speaker 1 This is up to the university.

Speaker 7 You want to come back?

Speaker 1 I didn't say that.

Speaker 8 So what are you saying?

Speaker 7 You're not saying you're retiring.

Speaker 1 I just said it. I don't know.

Speaker 7 So you don't know?

Speaker 1 I said this is up to the university.

Speaker 7 How will you make a determination about when you will come back?

Speaker 1 You're talking to the wrong guy. So it was basically, it was Michael Scott's when he was getting tried for for having a love relationship with Jan.
He, like, them reading it back was so funny.

Speaker 1 He basically was like, yeah, the university is going to decide whether I come back.

Speaker 1 I don't want to retire, but it's also not up to me. And I'm not saying I want to retire, but I also might want to retire.
And then like an hour later, he was.

Speaker 6 fired slash retired. You want to have an office off? Because the office moment that came to my life was when

Speaker 6 Michael Scott was pushing the former manager of Dunder Mifflin quietly out of the conference room while he was still trying to hang out, that's Jim Bohim being

Speaker 6 subtly asked to retire. I think they probably asked him to retire, and he was like, nobody asks me to retire.

Speaker 6 I'm going to ask you to fire me. So it's like both shoes were on the other foot, waiting for somebody to make a move, but he's out.
Happy retirement.

Speaker 6 There's to be a refirement party for Jim Boeheim. I think he might actually just keep working at Syracuse.
Like, he might just show up next year. Yeah.
Like, you're going to have to fire me again.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and it, you know, he did have an incredible career. 47 years at one place is insane.
Like, he deserves credit.

Speaker 1 You know, obviously, the championship season with Carmelo, four, five Final Fours, four Final Fours. How many, Jake? Five Final Fours?

Speaker 1 Five Final Fours. Five Final Fours.
A Legend of the Game.

Speaker 1 I read an article by Dan Wetzel last night that was very funny. It was a story that was retold to him by Rick Petino.

Speaker 1 Rick Petino and and his wife were on vacation with Jim Boeheim and his first wife, and they were all asking each other, like, if you could live anywhere in the world, where would you want to live?

Speaker 1 And people said Paris. Someone said Hawaii.
And Jim Boeheim said Syracuse. And everyone was like, what are you talking about? He said, Syracuse is just Hawaii in July.

Speaker 1 What is it? No, Hawaii is just Syracuse in July. So that was, he loved the city.
He loved the people. He loved the university.
I do think that's very rare rare this day and age.

Speaker 1 There was another story in that same article that Ohio State once flew out their AD and all their big wigs. And Jim Boheme gave him all of 10 minutes face to face and was like, I'm not leaving.

Speaker 1 Don't even ask me. I'm not going anywhere.
So he's a legend.

Speaker 1 It is like...

Speaker 1 These coaches,

Speaker 1 college basketball especially, the coaches and their personalities are a lot of like, you know, the game and the storylines.

Speaker 1 So it does kind of suck losing another legend after we lost Roy and Coach K and Coach J.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 salutes to Jim Boeheim. The question, though, PFT, how much blame do we put on Jake Marsh?

Speaker 6 I think a significant amount of blame. I don't think that Jake did a great job standing up for Jim Boeheim in the last several years, and we've been pretty ruthless towards him.

Speaker 6 Now, I, for one, I will miss the zone. I hope whoever the next coach is at Syracuse, they should just have to run the zone forever.
That should be Boeheim's legacy.

Speaker 6 Like, I will retire, but you have to run my zone in perpetuity for the next hundred years.

Speaker 6 Put that on paper, and then we can bid Aloha, the goodbye one, to Jim Boeheim and send him on his way away from Hawaii.

Speaker 1 I think they will. It's Adrian Autry, who's been there forever.

Speaker 1 I think he's probably been a

Speaker 1 coach and waiting forever. He's like,

Speaker 1 really?

Speaker 9 How many years? Well, Mike Hopkins was supposed to be. Boeheim was supposed to walk away when I was there, and then he changed his mind, and Hopkins is like, all right, I want to be a head coach.

Speaker 6 I will go to Washington.

Speaker 1 Ah, and that hasn't gone well. Not really.
No. Yeah, actually, he's the current coach at Washington.
I gave Spencer Hawes, our good friend, my word that I would start a fire Mike Hopkins hashtag.

Speaker 1 So if anyone wants to join me on that, the Huskies, I think, have not been to the tournament in like three or four years.

Speaker 9 They went in 2019.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so it's so we'll do, I'll do that for him. Mike Hopkins, you suck.

Speaker 6 Maybe we bring him home. Bring him home to Syracuse.
Yeah. He is still the coach in waiting.

Speaker 6 Maybe he didn't lose that title when he left. That's true.

Speaker 1 So I bring up Jake because Jake, I don't know if you saw PFT. PFT, by the way, is in Chicago right now looking for a house.
So you might have to.

Speaker 6 I found a house out here. I saw a house today.
Nice.

Speaker 1 Hell yes. Hell yes.

Speaker 1 Jake said,

Speaker 1 what was the exact tweet?

Speaker 1 The season's on the line, and this is the play you draw up

Speaker 1 crying face emoji. And I think the AD of Syracuse was like, we've lost Jake Marsh.
That's it. You can't lose Jake Marsh.
You can lose everyone. The whole fan base can be upset.

Speaker 1 But the minute you lose Jake Marsh, Marsh, Boeheim's got to go.

Speaker 6 The problem, from my point of view, in that tweet, is the crying face emoji. It's like you were clowning Jim Boeheim.

Speaker 6 Like, I could see Jake as a neutral observer questioning the last play call of the game when they're trying to win, trying to preserve Jim Boeheim's career, trying to keep him around for at least one more game.

Speaker 6 But to hit him with a crying face emoji, did PK, you said he was there for 47 years?

Speaker 1 47 years, PFT.

Speaker 6 47 years as head coach, right?

Speaker 1 Yes. He also played there.

Speaker 6 And before that, he was assistant. And before that, he played there we're probably talking upwards of 60 years at this interview forgetting that he had

Speaker 6 sent him on his way with a crying face emoji jake yep that was the last tweet

Speaker 1 that was the last tweet from jake marsh uh at while jim beheim was still the coach of syracuse men's basketball crying face emoji

Speaker 1 what are the chances you think jim beheim goes behind the scenes and hits up georgetown and he's like you know what fucking for pushing out too yeah i want you to consider my name patrick ewing got fired which was the most like uh yeah sure that that probably should have happened a couple years ago because he he did win that one big east conference tournament um but other than that he didn't do a lot of winning and now jay wright maybe gets his dream job that he put his his uh or not jay right sorry jay williams put his put his uh name in the hat out of nowhere in january because i think everyone thinks georgetown jay williams yeah that's what i thought for sure first african-american head coach in georgetown university history or what about rick Petino to Georgetown?

Speaker 1 Well, bring back the old John Thompson carrying the towel over the shoulder. Yeah, Rick Petino, St.
John's.

Speaker 1 Rick Petino better be at a major school next year because it's time and there's some openings that perfectly fit Rick Petino. So we need it.
We need Rick Petino back, but I would like to get a lot of

Speaker 6 openings perfectly fit.

Speaker 1 Ton. Yeah, there actually was a headline, which I credit to me.

Speaker 1 I did not make the joke because I think I still have that stalker who just looks at everything I do and says, anytime I say anything bad about Rick Petino, he texts me being like, I'll kill you.

Speaker 1 It was from Mike Vaccaro in the New York Post column, the choice for St. John's now really is a simple one.
Rick Petino or bust. Why not both?

Speaker 1 Why not both? You get both. I love it.

Speaker 6 Yeah, talk about your ultimate twofer.

Speaker 1 Yeah, right. So, yeah, it was a crazy couple days in college basketball.
I would like, Jake,

Speaker 1 Jake, I want you to everything you can move mountain, move mountains for pardon my take and get us Jim Bayheim on this podcast.

Speaker 1 Oh, I can make that happen.

Speaker 9 I can give my full effort to make that happen.

Speaker 1 All right, because Buddy and Jimmy, if you're listening, hit me up. And I, I, yeah, Buddy and Jimmy, they're AWS.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so Jim Bayheim is a legend. I will give him the respect he deserves.
I also would love to have him on the podcast because I think if we just get him talking, he'll start trashing everyone.

Speaker 6 I think so, too. There's also a good chance that Jim Boheme would hate us.

Speaker 1 Oh, well, absolutely. Excuse me.

Speaker 9 You guys are forgetting that he's appeared on this podcast before.

Speaker 1 Why?

Speaker 9 Why? He's a takies presenter.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, that's right. So

Speaker 1 we've already done the meet and greet. We've already warmed it up.

Speaker 6 Yeah, so we're basically recurring guests, Jim Bayheim, will make his triumphant return. It is sad, though.

Speaker 6 When you were talking about losing all the legends, Coach K is gone, Roy Williams, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

Speaker 6 Really, the only coach left from that era that I think fits in with those guys that's still around is Tom Izzo. Tom Izzo is that last guy that's still kicking.

Speaker 6 And yeah, it's sad whenever, this reminds me of when we lost Philip Rivers and Eli and Big Ben in the course of two years. It's sad to see the guard change.

Speaker 1 Yes, I was going to say the other ones we have, and I think the tasks that we need to give them, it's Petino and Calapari, Cal Peri.

Speaker 1 They just need to get a little more Italian because I feel like the older they get, if they get more Italian, the more like ornery and better they will be for sports podcasts like ours.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I mean, we actually do as a sports podcast. We're losing a lot of material.
We need Rick at a major job. Yes.
ASAP. Yes.

Speaker 9 Well, he could be very relevant in the next week if they take her business in the Mac tournament.

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 6 There'll be a sexy upset pick.

Speaker 1 By the way, PFT, you brought up Big Ben. I had to share this with you.
I don't know if you saw this as well. This is from

Speaker 1 Kenny Greer Jr.,

Speaker 1 locked on Steelers group on Facebook. He's playing a Madden season,

Speaker 1 franchise mode, and he has an update. Update: I'm now going into the 2031 season.
Big Ben still won't retire.

Speaker 1 I'm not even using the Fountain of Youth thing to keep him from regressing, and I promise you, I'm not editing his age bracket. All I do is give him new one-year deals every season.
That's it.

Speaker 1 I'm really curious as to how long this is going to continue. Guess we'll find out eventually.
He may be a

Speaker 1 68 with a three overall by the time he retires. And it's a picture of Big Ben in 2031 with a 44 overall.
I love that Big Ben in Madden is still living on.

Speaker 6 Yeah, all the haters out there that say that Madden is not realistic anymore, look at this.

Speaker 6 This tells me that there's an AI somewhere inside of Madden that is so far advanced, it's becoming the singularity because this fucking computer system has it dead to rights and whatever it is.

Speaker 6 There actually should be a senior tour for quarterbacks in the NFL for old players.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 And then, yeah, in terms of madness, it's been awesome so far.

Speaker 1 My Badgers lost. They suck.

Speaker 1 I'm actually like, I don't want to say I'm hoping they'll get in the tournament tournament because if they somehow sneak in, I'd be like, all right, let's gear up, knowing that it's going to end in just terrible heartbreak and they'll lose in a torturous fashion.

Speaker 1 But if they don't make the tournament, I'm okay watching a tournament without having

Speaker 1 any emotional

Speaker 1 right. And this team has not broken my heart because they just suck.

Speaker 1 We also have Villanova, who's going to play in, we're taping this at 8 o'clock. Max is going.

Speaker 1 Do you want to tell us a prediction?

Speaker 2 Nova 72,

Speaker 2 Creighton 60.

Speaker 1 Did you get a haircut today? No haircut. I am getting very nervous, though.
Did you pop champagne?

Speaker 2 No, no champagne has been popped, but I know

Speaker 2 we're going to make it to the biggest final and then lose and then not make the tournament.

Speaker 1 That's how it's going to happen.

Speaker 6 Okay. Max, it's important to know, though,

Speaker 6 that your pants tonight. What's the situation?

Speaker 2 I'm just wearing jeans, no green sweatpants.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 I don't know. We'll see.

Speaker 1 It's a long road.

Speaker 2 DePaul DePaul looks good right now. If DePaul can win, that'll make me more confident.

Speaker 1 Oh, no, that's the worst thing to do in March. Why? The team in front of him.
It's all opened up. Yeah, the team in front of you.
But it doesn't do lose. No, you can't do that.

Speaker 2 You have to win every game.

Speaker 1 I understand.

Speaker 2 So it's not like you're looking ahead, this whole thing is one.

Speaker 1 Right. But still, the minute you're like, oh, shit, look at the path, that's when disaster happens.

Speaker 9 Remember in 2018 when Loyal Chicago was upsetting everyone and UNBC, the whole path was open for Kentucky to make that final four.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 6 And then Loyola did. That's what happens.

Speaker 1 I remember when Steph Curry Davidson, I was like, Davidson, they suck. And then he fucking hung one on Wisconsin.
I was like, damn, we're set. We're in the Elite Eight.
This is good. Yeah.

Speaker 2 He's a skinny little bitch. Yeah.
So we have to stop.

Speaker 1 Yeah, his ankles are. He's already got this guy.
Yeah, his ankles aren't even good. His ankles are weak as fuck.
Speaking of which, Kevin Durant,

Speaker 1 that was tough.

Speaker 6 Did you see that thing in the layup line when he went up for that? And it looked actually like Tom Segora?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 6 It was bad. That was bad.
It was really bad.

Speaker 1 Now, I don't know if you guys have this same thing happen to you, but when we get later in the season, it's kind of actually like when you have a shitty car and you get an offender bender and they're like, the car is totaled, and you think, oh, my God, it's a horrific accident.

Speaker 1 No, no, no. It means that whatever the price to fix it is more than the worth of the car.
Whenever I see season ending industry or regular season ending

Speaker 1 injury, at this point of the season, I'm like, oh, my God, that's horrific. I'm like, wait, there's only like 18 games left.
He'll be back for the playoffs. He'll be fine.

Speaker 1 He continued with the warm-up. Well, it's a sprain,

Speaker 6 which is worse than a break. Yeah.
Which means that once again, it's on Chris Paul's capable shoulders to guide the Suns to the playoffs.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes, yes. He's got this.
Don't worry. Chris Paul take the wheel.

Speaker 6 This is his year.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 What else we got for March Madison anything else?

Speaker 9 Before I make the final pitch to get Baham on the show, I think you guys need to maybe clean up some comments made about him on the show previously to help our case at getting him on the show.

Speaker 1 Oh, when he hit the guy with the cool car? No, no. We were talking about Matthew Broderick.
Yeah. The whole time, that's what you were talking about? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
No, no, no.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 6 I have selective amnesia and dyslexia, so sometimes I mix up Jim Bayheim with Matthew Broderick.

Speaker 1 Right, because they both killed a person with a car. No, well, that's not going to help.
That's not going to help. I'm trying to help you guys.

Speaker 9 I want him on the show. You guys want him on the show.
He could Google Jim Bayheim part of my take, and some things will pop up that he may not like.

Speaker 1 So now's the opportunity to move that up.

Speaker 6 So really, Jake, the issue wasn't so much with Coach Boeheim, it was with the standing ovation that he got after killing somebody with his car.

Speaker 1 That has nothing to do with him. The hero's welcome.
The fan he got out of that. Oh, he presented Bonk in the air.

Speaker 6 The Syracuse fans looked like they were a dog welcoming a soldier home from a tour of duty when Jim Bohem stepped on the court after running over a guy.

Speaker 7 We know, Jake, there's nothing. I'm Google searching.
He's not going to find anything.

Speaker 1 It's fine. It's totally fine.

Speaker 9 Yeah, coach, we would love you on the show.

Speaker 1 And we won't bring up the fact that you killed a man with your car.

Speaker 1 There, said, done, boom. That's a nice.
I will not bring it up to him. I will not say it to his face.

Speaker 6 If he sets me up for a joke big time, I'm going to have the most difficult time of my life.

Speaker 1 Maybe what we'll do is we'll do the first ever director's cut, apart in my take, where we won't say anything in the moment, and then we'll go back like Mystery Science Theater and just add in some jokes.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like, Like, here's where we would have said this.

Speaker 6 I feel like I was too cowardly to make a joke.

Speaker 6 Hey, it's PFT here, reminding you that Boarshead makes game day entertaining elevated and effortless.

Speaker 1 I'm trying to think what other, I mean, we're in the middle of all the conference tournaments. Where do you got?

Speaker 7 Did you see Jake Paul and Mayweather?

Speaker 1 Yes. Jake Paul and Mayweather.
Now, I'm woke to this. Did you see it, PFT?

Speaker 6 I saw another thing from Jake Paul. I saw, so right after the fight, he made like the five excuses and said, I'm not making excuses.
Yep. The other excuse that he made, now maybe I'm eating the trash.

Speaker 6 Maybe I saw a screen grab that was altered. But he said that he had a wet dream.

Speaker 6 He had been withholding nutting for like two weeks, and he had a wet dream the night before a fight, before this fight, against Tommy Fury.

Speaker 6 And he thinks that that factored into the fact that he wasn't able to use his legs as well because he lost all that testosterone he had built up.

Speaker 1 I kind of agree with him. I kind of agree with him.

Speaker 1 That actually makes perfect sense.

Speaker 1 No, he saw Floyd Mayweather. Where were they? Were they in Vegas? Miami.
Miami. And he literally ran away.
Like, actually,

Speaker 1 like, Floyd Mayweather came up to him with a bunch of people, and he was kind of tentative, and then he just started sprinting in the other direction.

Speaker 8 Did you see the alternate angle, though?

Speaker 8 That's no, he actually, there was a guy coming at him and swung at him, and he just ran away from him 10 yards, stopped, and then just slowly retreated back into the arena.

Speaker 1 Jake Paul apologists here.

Speaker 8 I'm not, because he didn't actually, there was a second angle where he doesn't just sprint away and just keep running.

Speaker 8 He, like, sprinted away while this, like, one of his bouncers, like, tried to hit him.

Speaker 1 Security guards. Okay.

Speaker 1 I love it. Check out the other animals.

Speaker 6 It's like there's a Pruder film for Billy. It's like there was a second puncher that nobody else saw.

Speaker 1 How can we get Jake Paul out of this? I was going to say I'm woke in the fact that Jake Paul, the Paul brothers, are geniuses at what they do and no publicity is bad publicity.

Speaker 1 So I wouldn't put it past him to be like, I'm going to sprint away and then everyone's going to talk about me. I don't care if I look bad.
If people are talking about me, I've done my job.

Speaker 6 Yeah, that's true. That's probably the spin zone he's going to go with.
And he's not entirely wrong about it. He's keeping his name in the news.

Speaker 6 And, I mean, if I'm being honest, that's probably how I would react if I saw somebody that kicked my ass in public. I would probably just, I would probably just run away from them.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, exactly. All right, what else do we have? We have, so Aaron Rodgers, Jets, heating up.

Speaker 1 I mean, Billy actually said to me,

Speaker 1 he's going to, he, at... 3 o'clock today, he's like, hey, I'm about to go see Cocaine Bear.
I've written a blog for Aaron Rodgers to the Jets and Aaron Rodgers not to the Jets.

Speaker 1 So I'm ready to go for these two hours that I'm watching Cocaine Bear. It was a good job by you.
I love that.

Speaker 8 It was the best two hours I spent.

Speaker 1 Okay, you want to give us a quick review?

Speaker 8 Sick music.

Speaker 8 Not as much cocaine as you think.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 That's surprising. About bears.
Yeah.

Speaker 6 Are there enough bears? There's

Speaker 8 actually more bears than you think. There's surprise bears.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 8 It's not the bears' fault. Okay.
You end up rooting for the bears.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 First time for everything.

Speaker 8 It is the best. It's a way better way to remember Ray Liotta than the Chantix commercials.
Okay. The movie's dedicated to Ray Liotta.

Speaker 1 So dedicated so much you can't get his name right.

Speaker 1 Ray Liada? Right there.

Speaker 1 Rest in peace, Ray Liotta. Liota.
Liota? Yeah. Liotta.
Yep.

Speaker 8 They didn't say his name in the movie.

Speaker 1 True.

Speaker 1 You watch all of his movies on the movie. He's an actor.
No. Also,

Speaker 1 they only like it. I'm just going to say it.
I do not remember Ray Liotta from the Chantrix commercials.

Speaker 8 No, but like the last one.

Speaker 1 He will forever be Henry Hill and Goodfellows.

Speaker 8 Right. He will be Henry Hill and Goodfellas, but then you're like, oh, when was the last time I saw Ray Liotta?

Speaker 1 The Chantrix commercials. Goodfellas, when it was on TV, like the seven times that it's on a week.

Speaker 8 Anyway, it's actually a gore film. Low-key gore.

Speaker 1 Low-key gore. All right, so we're going to put this on a movie post.

Speaker 7 Lightweight gore. Yeah.

Speaker 8 But like, it's like tons of horror movie commercials before the movie because they think you're like a horror fan, and then you're like, what the hell? I'm not a horror fan. I'm a cocaine bear fan.

Speaker 1 Got it.

Speaker 6 My question for you, Billy, between the audience that was there, what percentage was there more for the cocaine and what percentage was there for the bear?

Speaker 6 Because you were definitely there for the bear aspect.

Speaker 8 I was at a four o'clock showing on a Thursday and it was quite the crowd.

Speaker 1 Really? Yeah. What does that mean?

Speaker 8 Means sparsely, I was trying to make sure none of these guys like were weirdos type thing.

Speaker 1 What sparsely? Okay, so how many people?

Speaker 8 There was like five people patting them down.

Speaker 1 And knowing how you look right now, because you are going through some allergic reactions in your face, would you, this is like when you're playing poker, if you can't find the sucker, you're the sucker.

Speaker 1 Do you think you were the weirdo?

Speaker 1 The other guys were looking around being like, oh, there he is. That's the weirdo.

Speaker 8 No, it was just like a bunch of dudes in trench coats and big bags.

Speaker 1 And I was like, what the fuck's going on in here? What?

Speaker 1 How many trench coats and big bags?

Speaker 8 It was just, anyway, it was a fun time.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 6 What steps did you take to make sure that nothing weird was going to go on there when you saw that it might be a dicey crowd?

Speaker 8 No, no, it was just like, why are all these guys bringing gigantic bags?

Speaker 1 Probably snacks. I would have guessed snacks.

Speaker 2 It's a cocaine bear.

Speaker 1 Or they just came from work because it was 4 o'clock. Yeah, true.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so there's our cocaine bear review.

Speaker 6 That's our Aaron Rodgers recap. Yeah.

Speaker 6 I was thinking about Aaron Rodgers today because

Speaker 6 everyone's saying he's going to go to the Jets, right? The Jets came out and met with him. Obviously, there was some pretext of the Jets being allowed to meet with him.

Speaker 6 The Packers probably thinking the Jets had a good trade package in place, and it's probably close to the end line.

Speaker 6 And we've been saying throughout this whole process that Aaron goes on his darkness retreat, right?

Speaker 6 And he comes out of the darkness retreat, and he's like, yes, I would still like to play football for $59 million.

Speaker 6 The more I think about it, the more he might retire just so that he could have the Trump card on everybody to be like, yeah, I'm the motherfucker who walked away from $59 million.

Speaker 6 Like, that's his credibility. You better hope he's not talking to Dave Chappelle because Dave Chappelle would be like, yeah, just walk away.
That's what I did.

Speaker 6 I'm sure they're probably friends. Yeah.
So he's made $305 million over the course of his career. $305 million, he could actually walk away from $59 million.

Speaker 6 And he said in an interview recently that there are two different types, or there's multiple different types of currency that you can acquire. Only one is money.
The other is energy.

Speaker 6 That's what he said in his most recent podcast appearance that he did with that weird guy. So I think he's got all of us in a darkness retreat right now.
He flipped it on us.

Speaker 6 And I think that Aaron might actually retire just so that he can have that moral high ground for the rest of his career.

Speaker 6 I think that would mean more to him than actually having 59 million extra dollars in his bank account.

Speaker 1 I'm in on this. I like this.
I like

Speaker 1 this thought process.

Speaker 1 I'm fully sold on him going to the Jets. I just want him out of my life.
But yeah, I like this.

Speaker 1 I like the fact that that he could walk away and be like, owned you guys, and then I'll just get to spend the rest of my life being like his last pass was an interception in a week 18 game when he had to beat the Lions to get to the playoffs.

Speaker 6 Yeah, it might happen. And also, I might look like a real clown when this comes out tomorrow morning and he's on the Jets.

Speaker 6 So just so you know, I'm just tossing this out there because I was thinking about Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 6 I was thinking about his decision from a sane person's point of view, which is having $59 million

Speaker 6 for five months' worth of work. Yeah, five, because he wouldn't make it far in the playoffs.
That's a good deal as far as any normal person is concerned. But Aaron Rodgers,

Speaker 6 I think he values the opportunity to look down on people for the rest of his life for that cost of $59 million more than he would value having it in his bank account.

Speaker 2 I'd agree.

Speaker 1 I'd agree. I like to take.
I'm in on the take.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so we'll find out.

Speaker 1 It feels like it's going to happen in the next couple of days because it should happen before free agency starts, right?

Speaker 1 Like, you'd think that the Packers and the Jets would want to figure out what exactly their situation is with the quarterback before they start spending money. So, let's hope it happens.

Speaker 1 Jerry O'Connell actually guaranteed that it would happen before this episode airs. So, um, it probably is going to happen like 2 a.m.
knowing him and how good he is.

Speaker 9 Steal Selection Sunday Spotlight, second straight year, a Hall of Fame quarterback.

Speaker 1 Oh, you think so?

Speaker 9 Yeah, Brady unretired on Selection Sunday last year.

Speaker 1 So, damn, no respect. No respect.

Speaker 6 I love that Jake remembers that. Yeah.

Speaker 6 That's why Jake hates Tom Brady. Hank,

Speaker 6 Hank, do you want to talk about some of the woofing that's going on? People are woofing about Tom Brady. There is some woofing.

Speaker 1 I could see it happening. Woofing.
Oh, okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he's probably bored.

Speaker 2 But he has his cat.

Speaker 6 He's just got a kitten.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he's got the pussycat.

Speaker 7 You can get someone to help with that. You think so?

Speaker 1 Yeah, cats take care of themselves. That is true.
You can leave a big ass bowl, yeah.

Speaker 8 Would you take care of his cat if you went back to the Patriots?

Speaker 1 Would you like to

Speaker 1 keep what? Yes.

Speaker 8 You take the cat? Yes.

Speaker 1 In terms of hypotheticals, that was an easy one. So, wait, let's make it better.
If he goes back to the Patriots, you've got to get a cat. Sure.
Okay. Even if it's a one-day contract.
No. Oh, come on.

Speaker 1 That's a technicality. If he's back on the Patriots for a day, if he's in pads on the side, I don't think he's going to New England.
No, I don't think he's going to be able to do that.

Speaker 6 He might want to get in on some of that action. He's probably jealous that somebody else took his title of Mr.
Mass.

Speaker 6 And so he wants to take it back from Dave.

Speaker 6 But I think,

Speaker 6 what about the 49ers, Hank? What about them Niners? It seems like a good fit for him out there. Calli Boy going home.

Speaker 6 Brock Purdy, the thing, so actually with Brock Purdy, he hasn't gotten his elbow surgery yet. And that could be a long recovery.
They probably won't have him to start the season next year.

Speaker 6 You better believe that John Lynch is making a call.

Speaker 7 As he should. I mean,

Speaker 7 I'd be a 49ers fan. Brady and Kittle, dream come true.

Speaker 6 Even against your Cowboys?

Speaker 1 That would push you out the top? Yeah, it would.

Speaker 1 Wow. Okay.
Well, Tom Brady might come back.

Speaker 1 We're just going to do this for an entire year.

Speaker 1 It's going to be maybe more than that. Yeah.
It's going to be a long time than we can.

Speaker 1 Brady's coming back.

Speaker 6 We still talk about Tebow coming back all the time. That's like a

Speaker 1 strong we.

Speaker 6 I talk about Tim Tebow coming back all the time.

Speaker 7 It's like four or five years of the show. Yeah,

Speaker 1 that's a royal we there.

Speaker 6 I've been pretty good about it recently, though, but it would be fun, you have to admit, to see him running that Taysom Hill offense out in Denver. Send him home.

Speaker 1 All right. So, yeah, and then, yeah, I mean, I guess we're going to find out with Lamar stuff.

Speaker 1 And it feels like, yeah, next week's going to be an awesome week for, obviously, not only March Madness, but then the start of free agency.

Speaker 1 It's going to be just non-stop news, non-stop things to talk about.

Speaker 6 Yeah, Leroy told me earlier tonight that he has, there's another. big-name free agent that he feels excellent about beating Schefter to.

Speaker 6 So just be on the lookout for that. But as far as Lamar Jackson goes,

Speaker 6 is it weird to anybody else that he's just kind of out there and anyone can have him for two first-round picks and a new contract and no one seems to want the guy at all?

Speaker 6 And I know that's like a very simplistic thing for me to say, but when you think of how desperate, desperate, desperate teams there are in the NFL and opportunity to at least make yourself guaranteed relevant next year, it's showing that there hasn't been more buzz more.

Speaker 1 Well, I think what you're talking about, too, is a lot of people, or not a lot of people, but there have been at least a few people I've seen float out the collusion name because they're saying essentially Lamar not having an agent is a slap in agent's face

Speaker 1 so that no one else is going to try to sign him and then he's going to have to come back and play on the tag and it's going to be like a big, hey, everyone, you need an agent.

Speaker 1 Don't fuck around with this.

Speaker 6 I think it's less about you need an agent and the collusion is more about the fact of nobody wants to pay him a guaranteed contract. Like the owners are so pissed off about the Deshaun Watson deal.

Speaker 6 Yes. And they know that Lamar wants a fully guaranteed contract.
So I think if collusion is happening and

Speaker 6 there's a good chance that the owners are colluding on this, it's just to the point we're not going to give this guy, anybody else, a guaranteed five-year deal.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yeah.
I mean, that's that part, like Deshaun Watson's contract definitely did kind of fuck over Lamar because I don't think anyone wants to give him a guaranteed.

Speaker 1 But it will be interesting to see how it plays out because I agree with you, PFT. It is weird.

Speaker 1 I can name 10 teams that should at least be trying to get him right now. And we haven't heard of any so far.
Yeah,

Speaker 6 maybe more than 10.

Speaker 6 I did. I accidentally texted the president of the Commanders the other day, Jason Wright, just the Photoshop of Lamar in a Commander's uniform.
And I was like, oh, wrong text. Ha ha ha.
Sorry.

Speaker 6 He does look pretty sweet, though, doesn't he?

Speaker 6 And so I'm working the phones right now, trying to get Lamar to the Commanders. You got a response? Yeah, I got a response.
I'm not going to get into that, but I got a response from him.

Speaker 1 Well, no response is a response. No, I got a response.
Was it words or was it just a thumbs up?

Speaker 6 He was just basically like,

Speaker 6 you're very good at Photoshop. And I said, thank you.

Speaker 1 Shout out Shane. Shane's very good at Photoshop.
Shane's very, very good.

Speaker 1 A very talented guy.

Speaker 1 All right. Should we get to Jerry O'Connell? I don't think we got much else.

Speaker 1 I mean, everything's going on right now. It's all the games.

Speaker 6 Shout out Rutgers. Yes, shout out Rutgers.
The University of New Jersey. Yeah.
Statement win today for the boys.

Speaker 1 Hunter Dickinson, tough, tough luck going out on his revenge tour. I don't think Michigan's going to make the tournament.
I am a little excited to just be.

Speaker 1 I can't remember the last time that I had it. Wisconsin was like truly on the bubble, where I actually have no idea what's going to happen on Sunday.

Speaker 1 Like, I'm going to watch and be like, oh, we're in, or, oh, we're out. I think we're out.
I'd almost guarantee we're we're out, but it's kind of exciting, right?

Speaker 1 Like, there's a little bit of excitement in that.

Speaker 7 And isn't it if like a bunch of the upsets in the random lower conferences, yeah, you don't want bid stealers.

Speaker 9 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's what you do.

Speaker 2 You're going for the one season. Right, you're right, right, right.

Speaker 1 Like Ohio State, you want to

Speaker 1 talk.

Speaker 6 Yeah, different type of excitement for you, Big Cat, to watch the selection show. Like, like you're the team sitting in the big auditorium and waiting to see if your name gets turned over.

Speaker 6 That's kind of cool.

Speaker 1 Yeah, right, exactly. I'm going to be excited.
We'll just be like, oh, here we go.

Speaker 9 While we're talking about this, tune in Sunday, 5.45, Barstill Bracket Show. Me, Big Cat, and Mark Titus hosting it.
We'll have plenty of special guests. I'll be on at the end.

Speaker 9 And the beginning, I thought.

Speaker 1 Oh, I am on the beginning as well. Yeah.
In a little bit of the middle. Yeah, in a little bit of the middle.
I'll be on. It's going to be great.

Speaker 9 So special guests, moments after their team is selected.

Speaker 9 Yeah, it should be fun. All Barstill platforms, 5.45 p.m.
Eastern Sunday.

Speaker 6 Yes. Live bracket reveal.

Speaker 1 And Titus is going to be on with us on Monday in person, breaking down the bracket. I'm so excited to just get that fucking bracket in my hands.

Speaker 9 I'm so excited to be wrong again.

Speaker 1 Yeah, well, you always are wrong. You fired Jim Behim.

Speaker 1 You ran Jim Behim over with your car. Essentially.

Speaker 1 Metaphorically. Metaphorically, that's what happened.
That is what happened.

Speaker 1 PFT, any other thoughts before we get to Jerry O'Connell?

Speaker 6 No,

Speaker 6 I was going to start high-stepping after the first five minutes or maybe seven minutes of this UNC UVA game because I bet the under.

Speaker 6 And I actually, I hate betting unders a lot like most people who are listening to me talk about unders.

Speaker 6 But it's kind of fun to bet UVA unders because they're just like this anaconda that suffocates you and it's ugly, but it's it's a beautiful type of ugly. Yes.

Speaker 6 So I like I like betting UVA unders are the only team I'll consistently do that with.

Speaker 6 But then something happened in the second half, so now I can't high step on that anymore. And now I feel like an idiot for even thinking, even though I didn't say it out loud, my brain jinxed it.

Speaker 6 I did a silent jinx.

Speaker 1 It's impossible to win in March.

Speaker 1 Every two hours, you're just like, all right, back at it. See if we can do it this time.
Nope. All right,

Speaker 1 two hours. Let's try again.
Yeah, over and over and over.

Speaker 9 Get well soon, Ben Van der Ploss, UVA.

Speaker 1 I would say UJWL. So are you going to use your one get well soon on that?

Speaker 1 Versus. Well, we all get one get well soon.
Is that what you're using it on?

Speaker 6 Like, per show? UCLA. Using it on UCLA.

Speaker 1 Are you using it on this?

Speaker 9 No, he broke his hand. No.

Speaker 1 Are you using it on this? How long? Okay, I'll use my get well soon on Bill Self, who had

Speaker 1 possibly a heart attack and is in the hospital. So

Speaker 1 get well soon, coach.

Speaker 1 I feel like broken wrists, heart attack. I don't know.
That's just me.

Speaker 9 No, the heart attack wasn't true.

Speaker 1 Okay, well, he had a major episode and he's in the hospital. I hope he has a fast recovery.
No, no, no, no. You only get one get well.
You're changing the rules. Get your get well out.

Speaker 8 Jimmy Carter.

Speaker 1 Okay, get well, Jimmy Carter.

Speaker 1 Is he dead? Live it. He's still alive.
He's still alive.

Speaker 6 Hey, that's crazy.

Speaker 1 Do you have your get-wells

Speaker 1 of the day?

Speaker 1 PFT, you got a get well?

Speaker 7 Tamar Hamlin. I hope that's what I'm doing.

Speaker 1 Okay, there we go. Pressure.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes, nice. It's a long road.
Nice. PFT, you got one?

Speaker 6 Yeah, Billy, I hope that your monkey pox is cleared up.

Speaker 1 Okay, nice. All right, nice.
So Jake used his on a broken wrist.

Speaker 1 A guy who... Yeah, no, I love Ben Vaderplaster.
He loves this show. He'll be better.
He will be better. I can guarantee he's going to have a full recovery.

Speaker 9 Hopefully, everyone just announced as well.

Speaker 1 I know. I do actually.

Speaker 1 I wish he was playing in March. It's kind of a bummer.
But he should have gone to Wisconsin. Maybe we would have gone to the tournament.

Speaker 7 Also, Red Panda got booed.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Red Panda's, it's over. I was there.
It's done.

Speaker 9 Probably like a 60% success rate.

Speaker 2 Wait, you were the.

Speaker 1 Oh, no, you weren't. It wasn't in United Hit Center?

Speaker 1 It was here? Yeah. Oh, that's brutal.
She's watching. It's over.

Speaker 9 But someone tweeted out me that in the night session, as we're recording right now, she won a perfect six for six.

Speaker 6 But yeah, that's the thing about Red Panda.

Speaker 6 She bounces back.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but man, it might be time.

Speaker 7 At the Mecca.

Speaker 1 At the mecca, the big East tournament. You can't do that.
Come on. You got, you know, what was that game that she was doing? Georgetown Villanova? You can't be doing that.

Speaker 9 Red Pan. Providence Yukon.

Speaker 1 Providence Yukon?

Speaker 1 Brutal. Rowdy environment.
All right, let's get to Jerry O'Connell, and then we will do Firefest of the Week on the other side of Jerry.

Speaker 1 we now welcome on one of our favorite guests, recurring guest hall of famer in studio.

Speaker 1 It's J-O-C. And it's a special time because we're not even, it's not fantasy football time.

Speaker 1 It's just catching up with JOC time. Jerry O'Connell's here.

Speaker 1 It's great to see you. You look fantastic.
I don't know

Speaker 1 how you're getting younger looking.

Speaker 1 What's going on?

Speaker 2 Well, I am in full makeup right now. I came from a television appearance, and I have quite a bit of makeup on me.
And

Speaker 2 actually, it's funny I have makeup on my face because

Speaker 2 Billy could actually use some makeup on his face. Something is happening.
There's a breakout, but it's actually

Speaker 2 it's not just a zit. It's a borderline viral thing.
What is happening?

Speaker 1 Yeah, his face, he looks like he had lip fillers overnight. He came in with a mask on, and we're like, hey, buddy, COVID's over.

Speaker 1 We won.

Speaker 1 We beat that fuck. And he was like, well, I have a mask because of my lips.

Speaker 2 Is it, I mean, there is like medication like Zorovax and sort of like herpie medication.

Speaker 1 It's not a herpie. You do look like you just got back from plastic surgery.
No, I don't. But terrible lip fillers because they're not even full.
I know.

Speaker 8 I'm allergic to something. Let's just get it out in the open.
There's no hiding from it. I have to speak into a mic all day, and people have to see my lips.
You do.

Speaker 6 I don't know what happened. You're Billy Jenner right now.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 But Jerry Hollywood.

Speaker 2 Do you get cold sores? Is it something you get? Do you get breakouts?

Speaker 1 Only on his back.

Speaker 6 No.

Speaker 6 Show Jerry O'Connell your back.

Speaker 1 No. Show him your back.
Show him it out again. We blurred it out last time.

Speaker 1 It's blurred out. Look at my boy's back.

Speaker 2 You got shot up with enough torrid all the time.

Speaker 1 Listen, Jerry, Jerry probably is a borderline doctor. All right.
right, no, that's gotten better. It's gotten way better.

Speaker 2 I'm so sorry,

Speaker 2 and I know you guys test here, but are you doing a cycle? Are you trying to like bulk up or something for the summer?

Speaker 1 Why would you look him in the eye when you say it's not steroids?

Speaker 8 I will take a piss test. If anyone wants to put me on a USADA reel test, I will do it.

Speaker 6 Philly's always trying to get us to look at his piss.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we never sweat USADA on us. Yeah.
So, yeah, he's struggling, but you look great. I mean, do you do your hair to look like that?

Speaker 6 Because you have the perfect,

Speaker 1 a little bit rustled hair.

Speaker 1 It's perfection.

Speaker 1 I'm hitting on you right now.

Speaker 2 No, no, no. The hair has got to go up.
It's something I actually learned working in television. You have to hire someone who does something with pomade and hair dryer and gets the hair up.

Speaker 2 And you'll notice every

Speaker 2 I hate to assign race to it, but every white male TV person has that like that swoop, that TV swoop, that poof. And I never adhered to it.
And I think it's why I was not working a lot.

Speaker 2 And then, you know, now that I have this daily job on CBS every day, they have someone who makes my hair go up.

Speaker 6 Yeah, it's nice hair. Is it?

Speaker 7 Can I ask, is it all your hair?

Speaker 1 Is that natural? Is it final hair? Well, Pipita, I'm going to move over to you and you're going to feel it. Are you willing to take a test? No, I mean, like, like a USATA test?

Speaker 6 That's your natural hairline that you've always had?

Speaker 1 You've always had that hair. You've never had anything, any, any,

Speaker 6 anything because jerry you're a big hollywood so-and-so and i am looking for somebody to fix mine well because you can't ask is that your hair because you could have gotten

Speaker 1 the turkish transplant yeah right oh no by no means am i saying that jerry o'con is wearing a wig has your hair yeah has your hair been moved around at all

Speaker 2 they did i did do some early replacement stuff

Speaker 2 okay so yeah yeah where they take actually it was really experimental i have um

Speaker 2 like billy i have uh a very hairy lower back for some reason there's a tuft of hair on my lower back.

Speaker 2 And they took some of those follicles and transplanted them to the front of my head. That's fantastic.

Speaker 6 You're giving me hope right now, Jerry, because

Speaker 6 it's starting to move its way back. And I don't know.
I'm thinking maybe I'll get on one of those 747s, go over to Turkey. Have you seen the videos of those flights?

Speaker 6 People get on these flights over to Turkey to get like $1,500 hair follicle surgery. And then the returning flights home, it's just all like 30-year-old dudes with their heads wrapped in bandages.

Speaker 6 No, it's like a big bros trip.

Speaker 1 The crazier one is the Brazilian butt one. Oh, yeah.
Because then the people come back and they're all

Speaker 1 laying with their chest on the chair because they have to have their butt in the air.

Speaker 6 Yeah, or you take the one to Singapore and you come back with all the frozen peas on your dick. Yeah.
There's that one, too. All sorts of crazy flights out there.

Speaker 2 Yeah, don't,

Speaker 2 I mean, this is like an in bummer news. Don't go to Mexico to do it.
Like, those people got killed.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah.
That is bummer news. That is bummer news.

Speaker 2 People got killed crossing the border to get surgery, which I guess it's easier to get surgery there because they don't have the same rules.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, yeah. You just get any surgery you want.

Speaker 6 I learned that, so Mexico tourism has actually picked up a lot in the last five to six years,

Speaker 6 especially like the last three. And all these previously undiscovered cities are becoming hotspot tourist destinations because what Mexico did during COVID, they went full Florida.

Speaker 6 Mexico was like the only country that said, we're not having any restrictions. Everybody come check out our country right now.
Since you can't go anywhere else, give Mexico a try.

Speaker 6 And people went to Mexico and they're like, oh, it's delightful. But the last like two months have kind of pumped the brakes on that.

Speaker 2 I recently went to Cancun and I highly suggested. It was

Speaker 1 a fun time, seeing your frogs.

Speaker 2 Went to

Speaker 1 a quaint establishment, Papa's e beer.

Speaker 2 Oh. Papa's eer.
Yeah. We're more of a Papa Sea beer family, and we did one night at Carlos E.
Charlie's.

Speaker 1 Oh, okay. With the whole fam.

Speaker 2 Went with the whole fam, yeah. I have teenage daughters, so we all went.
And

Speaker 2 you know what we did? That's fun, that's sports-related. My teenage daughters are playing club volleyball now.

Speaker 2 And it's funny,

Speaker 2 you can tell my voice is just

Speaker 2 a little deeper. This isn't my pardon, my take voice.
This is because I spent the weekend at a girls' volleyball tournament in Las Vegas all weekend.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 my daughters went two and seven.

Speaker 1 Two and seven. Two and seven.

Speaker 6 That's better than 0-9.

Speaker 1 But also, you're a Hollywood guy. I mean, can't you just change that on their resume when they're applying for college? Just be like, well,

Speaker 1 they were the best volleyball players in the world.

Speaker 2 No, we actually don't even go volleyball. We just say that they're on the rowing team and we take photos of them on rowing machines and then superimpose it

Speaker 2 and then totally deny we thought there was anything wrong with it. We thought that's how you apply to college.

Speaker 1 That's how most people do. I just want to say this right now.
I want to get this out in the open.

Speaker 1 If you need to do any funny business to get your daughters into college and you end up in jail, we will defend you.

Speaker 1 So we will do a Justice for Jerry campaign. We will be like, no, no one has the facts.
We have the facts.

Speaker 1 We will have, you know, you can call us from jail and come on the show. Like, we will be ride or die to the death for you.

Speaker 6 How about this? If you ever get investigated for us, just hit us up and we will do a fake pretend interview with your daughter, talk about how great she is at rowing on the number one sports podcast.

Speaker 6 Then you can use that as evidence. Like, she's the best rower in the history of high school sports.

Speaker 2 Listen, if there is a way to

Speaker 2 like pay, if there is still an avenue to pay and fake your children's way into college, after my daughter's performances this weekend, I'm going to have to go that route.

Speaker 6 Or you could hit up like the state welfare department and build her own stadium. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's hot in the streets right now. That's a tough one.
Yeah. That's a tough one.
But we got your back. Like you're walking out of this room today knowing

Speaker 1 I would say up until, I'll say up to double homicide. Single homicide, we'll still have your back.
Double, I think we'll have to distance ourselves.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's funny. My daughter's,

Speaker 2 it's so crazy what happened. And Billy can probably help me out with this.
They have problems,

Speaker 2 how do I word this? Jumping.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 They don't have hops. And I actually, I went,

Speaker 2 can't believe I'm going this route with them. I'm looking into ordering them, Billy's going to know about this strength shoes.

Speaker 1 Oh, I have some, yeah, I recall you wearing them around.

Speaker 6 Yeah, um, the shoes that are isometric, so they isolate your calves.

Speaker 2 Now, is that like there's you like there's so much embarrassment when you have to wear them publicly.

Speaker 6 Not if you're a clown like me, yeah. I understand that people are absolutely no shame, then it's fine.

Speaker 2 If people see myself and my daughters, you know, doing squat thrusts in a parking lot, like that's

Speaker 2 that's going to be damaging to my children in the long term, right?

Speaker 1 More so to her, I think. Yeah, that's a good story.
And well, think about it this way. I mean, you, you came out great and you fenced as a kid.
Right. That's the weirdest thing you could possibly do.

Speaker 2 But we are vertically challenged and jumping, and my daughter said,

Speaker 2 Billy wants to jump in here.

Speaker 8 No, I just got to say, it's absolutely

Speaker 1 stand-up. I can't take it.
Wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 8 There's a lot of stand-up people who have done PEDs to get into college because college does dictate the rest of your life.

Speaker 1 Not at all. Name one person.

Speaker 1 Everything's going to be a lot of people.

Speaker 8 There's still a lot of stand-up people to get into good institutions.

Speaker 8 Instead of faking the rowing, let's just juice up your daughters.

Speaker 1 Oh, you know what?

Speaker 8 It's so easy to juice up your daughters without even

Speaker 8 trouble for it.

Speaker 1 What happened there?

Speaker 1 We just stumbled on something that Billy unfortunately has not been able to get out of his head as a young, you know, two years, three years post-college.

Speaker 1 College has nothing to do with the rest of your life.

Speaker 8 I know, but like, like people wanting, if you want to get into a good college, you should absolutely juice up your daughters.

Speaker 2 I'm not going to juice up my daughters. You know, I hope to have grandkids someday.
And also, I think, you know, when you're

Speaker 2 when you're going through those changes, I don't think you should be messing with your body's metabolism.

Speaker 1 Juice up one daughter, your least favorite.

Speaker 2 I mean, like, like and and then the other one is like a control group yeah

Speaker 2 she's the one who will have you like going two and seven it's crazy it's crazy how much I'll tell you this much and and big cat you're about to get into this world when you it's amazing how much I'm a screaming parent on the on the sidelines yeah I can't believe I've turned into and it's really interesting because I don't have sisters so it's so funny um

Speaker 2 you know uh there was a break in the game and the other team was stalling.

Speaker 2 And because my daughters are 14, they immediately became like sort of self-conscious that they were just like standing out there and their body language was like their arms were folded.

Speaker 1 And I was from the sidelines and I was like, girls, girls, stay intense. Stay intense.
Like, dude, like, stay warm. Stay warm.
And my daughters who are 14 are like, shut up, shut up.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, girls, do not let this break you. Keep going.
Keep going. Stay warm.

Speaker 2 And like, then they, then they defy me by not staying warm.

Speaker 2 Like, I want them, like, you can imagine if someone called a time, let's say you scored four points in your basketball league in Hoboken, and someone said, hey, timeout, timeout.

Speaker 2 And they started tying their shoes or something.

Speaker 1 You'd be like, come on, man, let's play ball. What are you doing? Get up.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 And it's so funny.

Speaker 2 My daughters don't have that in them and it really embarrasses them when I yell things like that.

Speaker 1 They don't have the dog in them. You got to get the dog in.

Speaker 1 They do not have the dog.

Speaker 6 Do they have a dog?

Speaker 2 You know what's so funny is

Speaker 2 one of my daughters has the dog. When we were coming home and they went two and seven,

Speaker 2 and I was like, you know, guys, you're losers. You have to like embrace this.
You're losers. It's good parents at you.
Like, you feel this feeling? Do you like it? And my one daughter was like, no.

Speaker 2 And I was like, well, what are you going to do about it? And my daughter was like, I want to get better. I want to practice.
So, yeah,

Speaker 1 I think that's a good thing. And the other one was like, I'm cool with being a loser.

Speaker 2 The other one is more into drama and stuff.

Speaker 1 Well, the cool with being a loser is actually, she's actually far progressed in life because, like, we, you know,

Speaker 1 we all lose a lot in life. You lose all the time.
Right. So it's actually.

Speaker 2 You're looking at a total loser.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we're all losing.

Speaker 2 And look at me. I'm a regular guest here on

Speaker 2 PMT. Yeah.

Speaker 1 But if you can accept losing, life gets a lot easier.

Speaker 2 It's actually the secret to life is

Speaker 2 expect to fail.

Speaker 2 And then if you don't totally fail, that's like a huge victory. That's a huge win.

Speaker 6 If you get angry every time you fail at something, you are going to be a miserable person. You're just going to be fighting against the world non-stop, angry at everyone.

Speaker 1 Also, you should tell your daughters the other key to life is never give 100% of your effort. That way, when you do fail, you can be like, well, I wasn't even trying.
Oh, gosh.

Speaker 2 That's so funny.

Speaker 2 That's like, I mean, just to keep it sports, that's like that guy, Jake Paul, when he lost that boxing match, was immediately like, I got sick twice, and, you know, I didn't have a good, just like, take the L.

Speaker 2 You went up, I mean, by the way, he went up against a professional boxer who's related to Tyson Fury. Like, take the L and say, I tried my best.
I'm going to come back better.

Speaker 6 I love how in that interview, he was like, you know, I had a shoulder injury and I got COVID twice. I'm not going to make any excuses about it.

Speaker 2 I know.

Speaker 6 And I'm just ready to get back out there again.

Speaker 2 You know, who's really good at losing is

Speaker 2 Joe Cool, is

Speaker 2 Joe Burrow.

Speaker 2 When he lost the Super Bowl last year, I thought he took that L really well.

Speaker 1 He really, I mean, that's how you do it. The Eagles did this year, unfortunately, but they did.
Like James Bradbury being like, yeah, I held him. That was actually a classy way to take an L.

Speaker 2 Oh, interesting.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I took because, you know, he could have easily went in the locker room and said, no, the refs fucked us. How do you call that there? But he, you know, diffused it a little bit.

Speaker 2 You know what's funny? This Super Bowl for me, I don't really give a shit about the Eagles or the Chiefs, so I wasn't, I didn't even care. It was

Speaker 2 of course I watched,

Speaker 2 but it was such a rotors.

Speaker 6 Did you get to watch the whole thing?

Speaker 2 All right, what

Speaker 2 PFT is referring to is I came on the show and I said during Sundays, I'm only allotted two quarters to watch. You know, I have a family, and that's my day off, and I should

Speaker 2 spend time with my family, not yelling at the TV, hoping Christian Kirk gets five five receptions.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 I got to watch the whole four quarters.

Speaker 2 I made it a family event.

Speaker 1 That's awesome.

Speaker 2 Yeah, but it was such a relief. I didn't care.
It was so wonderful watching football and just not.

Speaker 1 So y'all know that we're big fans of Cracker Barrel. And this holiday season, I will be sat at their table with a big plate of country fried turkey.

Speaker 11 And Brandon, I'll be right there with you, and I'll check it off my Christmas list in the country store while I'm at it.

Speaker 14 It'll make a nice holiday tradition.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's so cute of you.

Speaker 11 Enjoy all the more holiday traditions only at Cracker Barrel.

Speaker 1 You didn't have any Eagles/slash Chiefs on your fantasy teams that year that you had grown a kinship with?

Speaker 2 Yeah, but once the season is over, I just don't care anymore.

Speaker 2 Actually, you know, in the fantasy league that you so kindly and generously allow me to manage for you, we had some drama at the end of the season.

Speaker 6 Yeah, some big-time drama.

Speaker 2 And we never really addressed it because it was sort of a tricky situation to talk about. And I just want to say for the record,

Speaker 2 I put out the first text when it was not a comfortable time to put out texts on these subjects.

Speaker 1 Jerry

Speaker 6 of his DeMar Hamlin episode where he died on the field, was resuscitated. And then everyone had to figure out, is this guy going to survive?

Speaker 6 When will it be appropriate for me to talk about the fantasy implications behind this man's almost tragic passing?

Speaker 1 And if I remember correctly, Jerry sent out the first text while they were doing CPR, right? No, no, no. No, no.

Speaker 1 It was before the CPR.

Speaker 2 No, it was a few days after when there were definitely signs of life and definitely signs of a possible full recovery. And I believe I waited until Damar

Speaker 2 spoke.

Speaker 1 Well, was communicating.

Speaker 1 Billy can get into that. We don't know if that was the real Damar.

Speaker 2 It was the real Damar.

Speaker 6 It was the real Damar. Billy? He was wearing a mask.

Speaker 1 This might not be the real Billy, actually. Those goggles? Billy, are you a clone?

Speaker 1 His face is so hard to look at. This is not the real Billy.

Speaker 1 He looks like he has the Joker face. He's trying to do...

Speaker 2 You look like

Speaker 2 I'm not going to kid you. You have to disinfect that mic when he's finished.
You have to.

Speaker 2 And not just for COVID purposes. It's for viral.

Speaker 2 Because that is a

Speaker 2 herpes is a real one. He's not even making a joke.
He has fleas, too.

Speaker 1 No, I thought it was fleas. Well, his dog works at a flea factor.
You know, as an actor. He works here.

Speaker 2 At a flea factor. You know, as an actor,

Speaker 2 one of the first things they do on a set is make you sign a form saying, do you have herpes? Because you have to kiss people and stuff. As an actor, you would be...

Speaker 2 No, I'm talking about

Speaker 2 TV and stuff because you have to kiss people. I mean, you know, on shows, they kiss people.
Billy, you would have to disclose what is happening to your face.

Speaker 8 It's not HSV1.

Speaker 1 Wow,

Speaker 2 sometimes you sound like such a doctor, man.

Speaker 1 Sometimes it's not.

Speaker 2 What was this type of steroid he pulled out?

Speaker 6 Oh, Torridol.

Speaker 1 Mesathemiola? Yeah, Torridol. That's anti-inflammatory.

Speaker 8 Wow. I kind of need right now.

Speaker 6 Jerry, I have a bone to pick with you.

Speaker 1 Oh, well, hold on. Oh, yeah, we have to go.
Before we get to that bone, I want to talk about it.

Speaker 2 So we were in that league that you guys are in for big money, and going into that final

Speaker 2 game of the fantasy season, my opponent was playing,

Speaker 2 my opponent was playing

Speaker 2 the quarterback from the Bills.

Speaker 6 No, wait, we had Joe

Speaker 1 Ravens.

Speaker 2 And they had Josh Allen.

Speaker 2 And if you recall, Joe Burrow, I believe, threw one touchdown already.

Speaker 6 The Bengals were going to win that game 70 to nothing.

Speaker 2 And the Bills made a stop.

Speaker 1 7-3.

Speaker 6 That's right, 7-3. Well, they would have retracted those points.

Speaker 2 And then the Bengals made a stop. And

Speaker 2 I believe the Bills, it was 7-3 when they. 7-3.
It was 7-3. The Bengals were driving.
And the Bengals were driving.

Speaker 1 Unstoppable. Right.

Speaker 2 Driving. And we were going to win.
We were going to win.

Speaker 1 Right.

Speaker 2 And then the game was canceled, as it should have been. Players first, players first.
That's not what you said to us.

Speaker 2 That is not true.

Speaker 1 That is not true. Jerry Lou, you called us right after.
You're like, can you fucking believe this? Play the fucking game.

Speaker 1 Not true. Skip Bayless is getting survived.

Speaker 6 That is not true.

Speaker 2 I understood the argument, but I did never, I may have thought it, but I never said, I never said it. And it was our season on the line.

Speaker 6 It was. It was a lot of money.

Speaker 2 It was a lot of money. So I waited three days.
There was, I believe, communication. I think I waited for words, not just like scribbling.
And

Speaker 2 I finally, I sent the first text and I started it off with, of course, the hashtag, hashtag prayers for Damar. Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 Immediately. That's beautiful.

Speaker 2 And I added an emoji.

Speaker 1 Maybe.

Speaker 2 I think it was a three. It was the hands, I think.

Speaker 1 Was the hands?

Speaker 2 Hands and then a number.

Speaker 1 Number three, yeah. Number three.

Speaker 1 And then I said, oh, hey, BTW,

Speaker 2 what's up with our league?

Speaker 2 Because some other leagues I'm in,

Speaker 2 the two people in the final, it was week 17,

Speaker 2 decided to just split the pot.

Speaker 2 We were on our way to winning LOL, hashtag prayers for DeMar

Speaker 2 and then I think I sent another text right after like prayers for DeMar all in caps, you know, and then

Speaker 2 you wrote back and you went, it's becoming a situation and we're in it because the person was leading the person we were up against by just a few, like seven points.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 2 And they wanted to end the scoring there.

Speaker 6 Yeah, so here's what happened. The guy that was leading,

Speaker 6 I think you're exactly right. I think we're down by seven points.
We're all waiting to see what the commissioner is going to put out there, Commissioner. I think C.J.
McCollum was the commissioner.

Speaker 6 So we're waiting on his ruling in his fantasy league. And this motherfucker that's beating us by seven points fires off into the group chat with a celebration gift.

Speaker 8 The Pete Weber, who do you think you are, Gif, I am.

Speaker 2 I think had Argentina holding the trophy.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, yeah, Messi, Messi.

Speaker 6 He put Messi in the group chat, being like, pay me my money. He just declared himself the winner.
And then other people started to be like, well, I guess congratulations to you.

Speaker 6 And I told Jerry this was going on. And Jerry's like, you got to fucking storm into that text thread and stake your standing ground.

Speaker 2 That's where the negotiation opens.

Speaker 6 Yeah. So I said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 This game is not over.

Speaker 6 You were up by seven. The projection had us 45% chance of winning at this point.
So then I counted, you have to come in strong with your anchoring. So I said, but

Speaker 2 the hashtag prayers for Damar.

Speaker 1 Prayers for Damar, obviously. Yeah.
So I said three.

Speaker 6 Obviously, we're thinking about Damar here first.

Speaker 6 However, the Yahoo projection had me at a 45% chance to win. Prayers for Damar.
Prayers for Damar. We hope he's doing okay.

Speaker 6 But I think it's only fair. And in a lot of my other leagues, Prayers for Damar, they're awarding the jackpot based on what your percentage was.
So thinking about Damar,

Speaker 6 can we get 45% of the pot to us? Knowing that they would never agree with that. And obviously, Damar is what we're thinking of first.

Speaker 6 And then we started the negotiation from there. We ended up coming to a mutually beneficial,

Speaker 6 agreeable decision, which was tough. We spotted them points, and then we just used our quarterbacks going into week 17.

Speaker 2 Yeah, and the matchups were not in our favor. I forget who it was against, and we lost, and we came in second.
I'm really sorry, guys.

Speaker 1 No, I mean, we got our money up against Chebron.

Speaker 6 Jerry, second place is as good as a win in these games because it's just nice to feel alive going into week 17.

Speaker 1 What you could have done, too, and what I did in the fantasy leagues I'm in, that I was out of playoff contention.

Speaker 1 I just sent a group text to everyone saying, hey, look, I know that I'm not in the playoffs right now, but if it were me, I would donate all this money to DeMar's charity.

Speaker 2 I did suggest that in one of the texts to you when it looked like we were going to have to go into week 18.

Speaker 1 Right. It's just like, just be like, hey, look, again, I'm not in a place to donate this money, but if I were, I 100% would.

Speaker 2 I like it. It's sort of like, if I'm not going to win, then let's just blow this whole thing.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, right. Yeah, no one wins.
Exactly.

Speaker 6 I had the suicide vest on. I was ready to do it, too.

Speaker 6 I've been looking back through our text that night.

Speaker 6 We went back and forth probably like a hundred times trying to figure out how to hold this motherfucker's feet to the fire because it takes some balls.

Speaker 6 He's

Speaker 6 on the almost grave of a young, promising NFL player.

Speaker 6 He's just storming into the group chat, demanding money.

Speaker 2 I want to say he never used the hashtag also.

Speaker 1 Wow, so he wasn't praying for him.

Speaker 2 We ended every sentence with hashtag prayers for Damar. And that jerk, not even one, not even a number thing.

Speaker 1 Didn't even think about praying for DeMar.

Speaker 2 I was just thinking about one thing.

Speaker 1 All right, I got a couple more things for you, Jerry.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah. And then we have to get to PFT's bone to pick with me.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 2 So excited, Billy. Billy.

Speaker 1 Wait, so you're announcing it?

Speaker 2 I'm not announcing it. I'm just excited.
You know, I got to say, I think it's going to happen. God, I can't believe.

Speaker 2 Oh, by the way, in our league last year, I did play Mike White one weekend and he did really well for us, but then he shit the bed the next week.

Speaker 2 Billy, on a scale of one to a thousand, how excited are you?

Speaker 6 Is it official?

Speaker 4 I mean, no.

Speaker 1 Just make it official. Yeah, according to.
Terry, just make it official. You have until Friday when this airs.

Speaker 1 Take a shot. It's official.
It's official.

Speaker 1 He's going to be in New York City. Congratulations.
He's going to be a total scumbag.

Speaker 2 By the way, if by Friday it's Jimmy G, I'm going to

Speaker 1 fucking

Speaker 2 do something. I'm going to start cutting myself again.

Speaker 8 So Jimmy G would not be able to to handle New York.

Speaker 6 Yeah, do you think that Aaron Rodgers is going to be able to handle the bright lights of the New York media?

Speaker 8 Speaking of which, yeah, you should take this with your home.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. Just take it home.
You don't have to read it right now, but that's Billy's report. You can read that later.

Speaker 2 Wait, let me just see this. How the New York media

Speaker 2 ruins Jets quarterbacks several case studies. I actually can't wait to read this.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, it's not.

Speaker 2 Wow. Why'd you use 27 fonts on this?

Speaker 1 Like, we're not counting words here. This is crazy.

Speaker 8 That's 12.

Speaker 6 What about the periods? Are they double double-perioded?

Speaker 8 I couldn't, so I couldn't do that.

Speaker 6 I wrote it in the blog back end, so like I couldn't do that. You tried to cheat, but I tried.

Speaker 2 If the NFL or if owning or if having any sports team is about getting butts into seats in a stadium, which is really what I'd say, it's all about.

Speaker 2 Well, listen, I don't think in this day and age it's all about that. I've got watching on TV.
You know, I think with

Speaker 2 what's the word I'm looking for? Collective, however.

Speaker 1 Illusion.

Speaker 2 No,

Speaker 2 illusion.

Speaker 2 No, how everybody makes the same amount because socialism

Speaker 1 are you a burning guy?

Speaker 6 People don't talk about how the NFL, it is socialism, but for billionaires.

Speaker 6 So, if your team doesn't sell as many tickets, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because you get money from the teams that do sell tickets.

Speaker 1 The TV deals and all the stuff.

Speaker 2 But let's just say, if back in the day, it was about like it's pretty simple. It's a pretty simple business model.

Speaker 2 You build a team, it does well, you get more butts in the seats, you sell more jerseys, that's how you make money.

Speaker 2 If it's about getting butts into the seats, the Jets getting Aaron Rodgers would be the ultimate, I mean, it would be like, just think about the first two weeks of the season that we're all still Jets fans.

Speaker 2 I mean, it's going to be completely sold out.

Speaker 6 Does NetLife have a vaccination requirement for fans?

Speaker 1 They've got their

Speaker 1 Billy Woods.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's Jersey Jersey. That's why I lived in Hobo.

Speaker 1 But yeah, listen, he will break your heart, and he won't care that he does it.

Speaker 2 I love him. He was such a good sport on this show.
What an interview. What an interview.
He was a good sport.

Speaker 1 What an interview. I'll give him that.
I'll give him that. So, congratulations.
The Jets are back. This reported by Jerry O'Connell.

Speaker 2 And by the way, you know, Brees Hall will hopefully be back at the beginning of the CI.

Speaker 2 I think we have a great receiving core.

Speaker 8 The defense is great.

Speaker 2 I'm really excited.

Speaker 1 The number two pick overall is your backup quarterback? I am. That's huge.

Speaker 2 I'm very excited.

Speaker 8 Hopefully he gets some blowouts, and Zach Wilson gets

Speaker 1 and learns under Edison Rodgers. Oh, no, no.

Speaker 2 And then hopefully, like, he can't give up on Zach Wilson. God, didn't you, I'm trying to recall, didn't you call like Zach Wilson like super elite in one episode?

Speaker 1 Ceiling is Patrick Mahomes. Ceiling is Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 1 They can make Prick Mahomes.

Speaker 8 Clearly, physically, they can make the same throws.

Speaker 8 Physically, Joe may not do it at the right times or as accurately, but he can do the same throws.

Speaker 6 Are two the right people wearing the right jerseys?

Speaker 1 I think it's already given. Robert Salah even said he was like, We just want Zach to get better.
And if it's with us or someone else, we're just rooting for him. Which basically is like

Speaker 1 he's never playing again.

Speaker 2 Oh, God.

Speaker 2 You know what I'm not watching anymore, though, is any of this like combine draft stuff.

Speaker 2 Like, every time I try and look at like a draft board or like a mock draft board, it's like it completely changes every day.

Speaker 2 You can't even, like, it's funny. It's actually quite freeing.
I'm not even thinking about fantasy these days because there's nothing to do. You have no idea who's going to go where.

Speaker 2 Or I will say this. I am probably, if you guys allow me to manage your team again next season, I'm definitely

Speaker 2 going to take whoever is wide receiver one in Chicago.

Speaker 1 Oh, you're, okay, so you're buying in on Justin.

Speaker 2 I'm buying in on Justin. I hope Justin is their guy.

Speaker 1 He's going to be. Okay, he is.

Speaker 2 Okay, because some people are.

Speaker 1 I'm reporting it right now. No, I'm reporting it right now.
Okay.

Speaker 2 I love Justin Fields. I promise you also, I will only draft you.
I don't care how early I have to draft them.

Speaker 1 I will only,

Speaker 2 for the rest of time,

Speaker 2 tale as old as time, I will only draft a quarterback that is a running quarterback.

Speaker 1 You love Taysom Hill. Yeah.
Absolutely love the guy.

Speaker 6 Are you still addicted to Taysom? Or did this season break you?

Speaker 2 No, I had Taysom a little bit. We played him a couple weeks, and that was an error.
And I want to apologize for that. We probably would have, we would have been on the winning side of that.

Speaker 2 What Jerry does is he

Speaker 1 just get like

Speaker 6 premonitions about Taysom Hill. So there's no like rhyme or reason to when you decide to sprinkle him in there.
You just say to yourself, I think this is going to be a Taysom Hill week.

Speaker 6 I'm going to drop him in. And then it never is when you think it's going to be.

Speaker 2 It's so funny. They were such a weird team to watch last season, the Saints.
I mean, they were just so weird.

Speaker 1 Depressing.

Speaker 2 It wasn't depressing. It was like a fever dream.
I mean, like, Jameis is on the sidelines.

Speaker 2 Andy Dalton is trotting out there. Taysom is scoring touchdowns.
It was like a fever dream.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 yeah um oh alvin kamara i'm gonna stay away from him next season yeah oh yeah did you run into him in vegas

Speaker 6 no i didn't that would be an all-time headline if if you just like busted his balls about being shitty and fantasy that would be pretty cool and he just beat the shit out of you oh you know what i saw at the volleyball tournament uh i saw um this is really fun um

Speaker 2 i saw i hope i'm i'm not breaking hollywood uh like privilege conversation rules here i saw vince vaughn there he has a daughter and it was so funny i looked at him and he's a tall guy so it's like the first thing you look at.

Speaker 2 I mean, not that we judge people physically here unless it's something growing on Billy's lip, but,

Speaker 2 you know, he's a tall guy, so you think, like, oh, yeah, his kid must be good at, his girl must be good at volleyball. He's a big guy.
She's probably an outside.

Speaker 2 And I thought it was so fun that I saw him in Vegas because I so

Speaker 2 I think about him when I think about Vegas because remember in swingers when they're in Vegas, Vegas.

Speaker 1 Did you talk to him?

Speaker 2 Yeah, I went up to him and just gave him, you know, I tried to teach my kids,

Speaker 2 you know, when it's like game day because they were like at this point they were oh and five i was like girls we're just gonna listen to public enemy and i want your air pods in and we're not talking to anybody you got to be a little more intense when you're going in here and um

Speaker 1 uh

Speaker 1 so i was trying to get them intense for the game and that's when i saw him and he was like oh hey buddy how's it going and i was like no no no no no so he knew you who you were uh yeah i i are you are you that like where are you in the you're not a list i think you're a list.

Speaker 1 You're a list to us.

Speaker 2 No, I'm not

Speaker 2 the there's a strong possibility he thought I was Jason Bateman because he just you did refer to me as buddy. He was like, hey, buddy.
Hey, buddy.

Speaker 2 And then I just pointed to my headphones and I went, I can't. We're just we're getting ready.

Speaker 1 We're on port 88.

Speaker 2 And I was like, oh, you doing this?

Speaker 2 Are you playing, buddy?

Speaker 2 How's Ozok? And

Speaker 1 I said, I...

Speaker 2 I can't. We're just getting ready.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 6 it's got to be impossible for him to go to Las Vegas Vegas without having a thousand people just screaming,

Speaker 1 Vegas babies, Vegas.

Speaker 6 So, your daughter beat the shit out of his daughter?

Speaker 2 No, there's no way. I don't know if my daughter, I don't think my daughter played his daughter.
I think his daughter was in a different,

Speaker 2 we were in sort of the

Speaker 2 whatever is the lowest level of fun league.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Fun league, yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 it was,

Speaker 2 we're going to regroup. We're going to get those strength shoes.
I'm going to do those exercises that come with the pamphlet with it. I'm going to get my kids some hops.

Speaker 2 I'm going to get them on Ramametal.

Speaker 1 What is it called? Tour doll? Tour doll? H-G-H would be.

Speaker 1 We're not doing any of these.

Speaker 2 Come on. It's not even a joke.
It's funny. I mean, it would be funny.

Speaker 1 Just let's juice them up. Come on, let's get them to go.

Speaker 2 It's not even funny.

Speaker 1 Jerry just winked at Billy when he said it's not even funny. That was weird.
It's not even funny, Billy. Hit me up later.

Speaker 6 Jerry, I do have a problem with you. Okay, suck it to you.
Maybe we can talk this out because it just occurred to me actually this morning. We love having you on the show.
You've been on. it.

Speaker 2 I love being here. I love listening to it.

Speaker 6 I'm going to guess seven times.

Speaker 1 Maybe more. I just love it.

Speaker 2 I love everything about it. I'm on sports podcast.

Speaker 6 You're a wonderful guest. We love having you.

Speaker 2 Shepherd was fun. It was so fun to have.

Speaker 1 Nice piece of shit. Hank, put a future on.
He's a piece of shit. Shepherd's

Speaker 6 a scam artist.

Speaker 2 You know what's really amazing is hearing him here and just his sports voice that actually talks in. It's pretty amazing how that sort of like infiltrated his everyday way of speaking.

Speaker 6 Yeah, no, that's him, 24-7.

Speaker 6 My problem with you is.

Speaker 2 You know, I was at a golf cart.

Speaker 2 And I'm so sorry, I want to hear it in a second. I was at a golf cart, and this young lady came up and said, We want everyone's phone number, but they didn't take mine.

Speaker 6 Oh, yeah, you incorporated three stooges. Yeah, too.

Speaker 6 How come we've never been invited on one of your shows, Jerry? Oh, man.

Speaker 2 Listen, I host a game show called Pictionary. It's on Fox.
Check your local listings.

Speaker 2 A lot of your fans, AWLs, are always

Speaker 2 tweeting me about it.

Speaker 2 I would love to invite you guys on there. It would be great.

Speaker 1 I'm saying that because I know

Speaker 1 you're going to meet you guys. That's not even an invitation.

Speaker 1 That's saying you would love, like, in theory, it would be great to get to the act of inviting you.

Speaker 2 I would love for you guys to be there. Now, listen, we can't, we don't have a budget to fly you guys.
I know you guys go private. We don't have that kind of budget, you know.

Speaker 2 I mean, maybe like spirit with a couple of connections, tops, allegiance, okay.

Speaker 2 But I want to say, if during grit week you are on the west coast.

Speaker 1 Oh, we never do grit week in LA. What are we, soft?

Speaker 6 You're going to sellouts?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Well, no, a lot of teams do have their practice facilities in Oxnard and stuff. I mean, maybe

Speaker 2 like a McCarthy swing by. I mean,

Speaker 6 with the socialism again.

Speaker 1 Okay, you get us, Mike McCarthy. We'll do Pictionary.

Speaker 1 Wow. That's a good deal.
What a challenge. That's a good deal.

Speaker 2 I'm going to look into that. Okay.

Speaker 1 I'm going to look into that. We will come.
We'll interview Mike McCarthy. We'll do Pictionary.

Speaker 2 How am I going to do this?

Speaker 1 I don't know. You can figure this out.

Speaker 6 I think you're two phone calls away from Mike McCarthy.

Speaker 1 Easily.

Speaker 2 It would be so fun to have you guys on there. It's

Speaker 1 really good friends with Jerry Jones. Weren't you on that bus when he was.

Speaker 2 No,

Speaker 2 I've never met Mr. Jones.
I actually have been to a number of

Speaker 2 Dallas Cowboys games.

Speaker 2 I have a couple friends that went to SMU that I met when I first moved to Los Angeles, and we were in a flag football league. And then

Speaker 1 that rules.

Speaker 2 Well, it was, it was, and they're like pure Dallas guys, like gym, all chest and buys every day, you know, and I did really like them. And, you know, not to generalize and stereotype, but people from

Speaker 2 Texas drink a lot, and we had a lot in common. And one day they were like, hey, man, it's SMU homecoming.
And then we always go to the

Speaker 2 usually SMU Homecoming falls on Dallas Giants. And they went,

Speaker 2 and then we go to Cowboys Giants. And every year I go to Dallas for the SMU Homecoming.
And nothing, it's not Conference USA. What are they in now?

Speaker 2 Some crazy conference.

Speaker 6 I heard that they're actually going to join the Pac-12.

Speaker 6 Are you joking? No, I'm dead serious.

Speaker 1 Wow.

Speaker 6 Because there's going to be all this realignment.

Speaker 2 But I love going to Dallas. So I go to a Cowboys game once a year.

Speaker 2 I really enjoy it. It's a really fun experience.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 So you know Mike McCarthy.

Speaker 2 I don't know Mike McCarthy, but I've never met Jerry Jones. It's so funny.

Speaker 1 What about that picture of you at that school? Oh, man. It's not even funny.
Oh, that was Hank. That was Hank.
That was Hank.

Speaker 2 It's not even funny. It's not even funny.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 people were showing us pictures of Hank standing next to Jerry Jones.

Speaker 6 It's hard to tell what's real and what's not.

Speaker 2 That was crazy.

Speaker 1 That was crazy. I think we got to let you go in a second.

Speaker 6 That was a great poem.

Speaker 1 It means Jerry, Jesus. Do I have a copy of that poem?

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 I'm going to take the number. The Knicks are back, 33.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 6 Jerry, while this is going, can you just give a comment on Raquel's statement?

Speaker 8 69.

Speaker 6 A comment on what? Raquel just issued an apology.

Speaker 2 Oh, really? On Vanderpump.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Am I breaking news to you?

Speaker 2 This is breaking news.

Speaker 1 90. Oh, close.
You'll get it.

Speaker 2 You'll get it. What a bummer.
You'll get it.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 6 Or Hank, you'll get it. I don't know anything about Vanderpump, but one of the ladies that escorted you upstairs told me I had to ask you about Raquel's statement.

Speaker 2 I haven't read it.

Speaker 2 You guys should watch Vanderpump.

Speaker 1 We're all so hot.

Speaker 2 These girls, everyone's hot. The guys are hot.
The girls are hot. Man, it would be so fun.
Wouldn't it be fun to get Billy on one of those Bravo shows where he's like

Speaker 1 working as a bar back at one of those Vanderpump bars?

Speaker 6 What are those lips about there, Billy?

Speaker 1 You can't kiss anybody,

Speaker 2 demonic, bro. Because that's a union show, and you can't kiss anybody.
You have to sign that.

Speaker 1 You can't have a JSFV1.

Speaker 2 You have to disclose it, though. You have to.

Speaker 1 Like, from now on.

Speaker 2 Dude, there's a record of this. There's footage of your lip, and it's on there.

Speaker 6 So, zero context. Are we Team Raquel or who's it? Tom?

Speaker 2 They're all hot. And you have no idea who we're talking about.
One is hotter than the next.

Speaker 1 I'm team all of them. Okay, all right, great.
And you're going on out and about right now. I'm going on out and and about.
JOC fans, check that episode out.

Speaker 1 I think they do have some Vander Pump questions for you. So thank you, Jerry.
I love you guys.

Speaker 2 I love all of you. Max, great to meet you in person.

Speaker 1 Jerry O'Connor. What's up, guys? It's Big Cat here making my Irish entrance with proper number 12 Irish whiskey.
How do you make an Irish entrance, you ask?

Speaker 1 It starts with a shot of proper number 12 Irish whiskey because real friends don't let friends Irish exit a party without a story to tell.

Speaker 1 Original proper number 12 is rich in a smooth blend of golden grain and single malt. Age four years in bourbon barrels.
Mix it up with some ginger ale for a classic and refreshing proper ginger.

Speaker 1 In the mood for something smooth but a little sweeter, try proper Irish Apple, a delicious blend of proper's award-winning Irish whiskey with crisp, fresh notes of apple.

Speaker 1 So get out there and make your Irish entrance. Anything else just wouldn't be proper.
Gee, go check it out today. okay uh fire fest of the week we ready hank

Speaker 7 yeah i don't have much it's rip oh i mean the only real thing that i could even you know qualify under the fire fest category which isn't really a fire fest but i've just gotten addicted to online shopping oh i got rid of i got rid of a bunch of my clothes like i did a full purge and just took like three big trash bags to goodwill Which then was like, oh, I can buy some new stuff.

Speaker 7 And now, and I was never a big online shopper. It's never really been a thing I do.
I usually usually just take all the free stuff we get, and that's basically my wardrobe.

Speaker 7 But now I'm just, I've been just shopping every night.

Speaker 6 Little fancy boys, what websites are you using?

Speaker 1 All of them. Ooh, we got any new fits? Yeah, we got some.
Are you debuting them this weekend?

Speaker 7 Probably debut one this weekend. Okay, for

Speaker 1 a gambling stream with like seven dudes.

Speaker 7 Maybe Saturday night I might go out after like that. Yeah, we'll do a two for one.

Speaker 1 Okay, okay. I'm excited for

Speaker 6 we should do fashion week next week. Hell yeah.
Have Hank debut a new fit every week, next week.

Speaker 1 No, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 You guys can guess.

Speaker 7 You guys can guess. Okay.

Speaker 1 If it's a new fit or not. Yeah.
Today's not. No.
Okay. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I nailed that. I'm one for one.

Speaker 6 It would be sick if Hank did all of his fit shopping at the Barstool store online, so it's impossible.

Speaker 1 Saturdays are for the boys who are like, is that a new fit?

Speaker 6 Hank's going to come in with a mean girl jacket.

Speaker 7 His teleblue t-shirt.

Speaker 1 Yes. Oh, well, we'll get to that.

Speaker 1 PFT, your Fire Fest.

Speaker 6 My Fire Fest of the week is I got called a yuppie today. Oh, no.
And it's been a while. It's been a while since I've been why worded.
Actually, I've never been Y worded in my life.

Speaker 6 And it took me aback.

Speaker 6 And it was actually not even just somebody calling me a yuppie, but one of the houses I was looking at.

Speaker 6 Somebody, a neighbor, had come by as they had poured the cement in the driveway and they wrote on it, fuck you, yuppies

Speaker 6 to the people that were going to be buying this house. Oh, and so then I'm like, I'm looking at this house.

Speaker 6 Am I a yuppie? So I don't know. Like, are we yuppies as a podcast?

Speaker 1 Probably, yeah.

Speaker 6 Well, actually, what?

Speaker 8 Maybe only some of us.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, I mean,

Speaker 1 I think probably, yeah. Right? What is the actual definition of a yuppie?

Speaker 8 Young urban professional.

Speaker 1 Oh, okay.

Speaker 6 So, Spin Zone, I am young. I'm 29.

Speaker 1 I am urban.

Speaker 6 I am a professional football talk commenter.

Speaker 6 And I do stupid stuff. I'm an at-risk urban youth, actually.
Yeah. So, yuppie is a different way of calling me an at-risk urban youth.
So, thank you.

Speaker 1 Yeah. A young person with a well-paid job and a fashionable lifestyle.
I'm not a yuppie. I don't have a fashionable lifestyle.
I have the least fashionable. Oh, fashionable lifestyle.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's a good fit. Yeah.
This is not fashionable.

Speaker 1 Yeah. You're a fat.
You are a yuppie, Hank, with your new fit. You wear a collar.
I am wearing a collar, but I am not fashionable. I think that is very much the facts.

Speaker 6 I wear buttons probably once a month. So does that mean I don't think I'm fashionable at all? No.

Speaker 7 Yeah, you don't got to worry about it. No.
Jake's a yuppie.

Speaker 1 That was a little too fast, Hank.

Speaker 6 You piece of shit.

Speaker 6 Hank gets too fast. You're wearing sweatpants and a hoodie right now.

Speaker 1 That's a new fit.

Speaker 2 He paid good money for that.

Speaker 6 Hank, is that a new Boston Red Sox hat you've got on?

Speaker 1 No. It's a new fit.

Speaker 7 Trying to become a minister of Massachusetts.

Speaker 1 I think we are. Yeah, but I think we are yuppies.

Speaker 6 It stopped me in my tracks because I was like, I don't think I can buy this house no matter how much I like it because then I'm walking in every day.

Speaker 1 Because you'll have on the side.

Speaker 7 I'm going to go to the ceiling and shit if they're doing that.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Every day I'd be walking up a driveway that was calling me. It would be a constant reminder that I'm a yuppie.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah, no.
Cancel it. That house is gone.

Speaker 6 See ya. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Nice try. You should buy it and tear it down.
Show them. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Yeah. You know what? I'll buy it.
I'll destroy it. That's how much I hate yuppies.

Speaker 1 I don't want anyone to live there. You got it.

Speaker 1 All right. My Fire Fest.

Speaker 1 Okay. So to set the stage, Stella Blue Coffee.
Thank you for everyone who's purchased it.

Speaker 7 I also am very partially responsible for that.

Speaker 1 Yo, yes, you are. You'll chime in.
So thank you for everyone who's bought it. It's been going really, really well.

Speaker 1 Spend a lot of time on it. We have meetings, a lot of new stuff coming out.
Everyone get excited. Some maybe cold brew coming up soon.
So anyway, we had our meeting on Wednesday, and

Speaker 1 the Stella Blue, I have some really, really good people who work on it. Shout out Trevor, Kale, Courtney.

Speaker 1 And so they showed us some new shirts. And

Speaker 1 Hank actually chimed in and was like, I think we can be more imaginative with these shirts. Not like a criticism, but more like, hey, let's think outside the box here, not just text, right?

Speaker 1 So they said, okay, well, we'll work on some stuff and get back to you. Great.
Meeting ends.

Speaker 7 I texted memes and Shane on the side after that being like

Speaker 1 going on.

Speaker 1 So meeting ends. Plan is we'll see some new shirts in the next couple of days.
Flash forward to last night, Wednesday night,

Speaker 1 there's a text thread. Max, memes, Hank, and Shane are on it, who do the social for Stella Blue.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 in pops four new shirts. I see them.

Speaker 1 They were the worst shirts I've ever seen in my life.

Speaker 1 So I said that much. I was like, holy shit.
They came back with worse options. And I was like,

Speaker 1 I'll just talk to Triggs, who does a lot of our shirts. He's an incredible artist.
He'll get us some good shirts.

Speaker 1 Take about a five-minute beat, whatever.

Speaker 1 Boom, text pops up from Max, just to me. And he's like, hey, dude, Shane made those shirts.
The guy who sent them to you on that text chain.

Speaker 1 So I just completely trashed these shirts to Shane without realizing it. So it was a

Speaker 1 we're gonna have to build off this. It was, I'll tell you what, PFT, I'll send you the shirts after.

Speaker 1 He put

Speaker 1 that bad. No, they're really bad.
I think we got to sell the shirts.

Speaker 6 No, they're really bad.

Speaker 1 I think we have to sell the shirts. There's, he put, here, I'll actually send them right now.
He put,

Speaker 1 he put Stella's face in the A,

Speaker 1 and it looks fucking sick.

Speaker 1 It was the best A I've ever seen seen drawn. So I went up to him after, and I was like, look, dude, the shirt sucks, but the A was just so good that

Speaker 1 we can find a way to come back from this if we just maybe make the shirt with just the A.

Speaker 6 To be fair to Shane, a lot of his time is spent just by making like make-o-wish Photoshops for us players that we wish were our team.

Speaker 1 No, he's talented.

Speaker 6 He's handcuffed by spending a lot of his creative capital doing just utterly meaningless Photoshops that we make because we're pathetic fans. Yes.

Speaker 6 Also, maybe he didn't have the right amount of time that he was able to contribute.

Speaker 7 It's also, you know, these group techs are supposed to be, you know, a safe space where we can collaborate and get away with that.

Speaker 1 I thought I was in a safe space.

Speaker 1 I thought I was in a safe space. I thought that the person who made those shirts wasn't sending me the shirts in the text chain.

Speaker 6 You guys actually, I had a talk with Maxim.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you see MPFT? I just sent them to you. They're so bad.

Speaker 1 I would wear this.

Speaker 1 That tells you how bad it it is that I would wear it. But check out the A.
Look at the A. Zoom in on the A.

Speaker 1 No, it's good.

Speaker 1 The A is so good. Maybe the best A I've ever seen.
I went like full Trump on them when I went up to him yesterday. I was like, that A was fantastic.

Speaker 1 The best. You make the best A's I've ever seen.
But yeah, I had a talk with Max Memes. He's like, you guys got to protect me because

Speaker 1 I'm going to say what I feel. And

Speaker 1 yeah, it was.

Speaker 6 I also, I saw it later.

Speaker 7 I saw it probably like an hour after. and it wasn't.

Speaker 7 If it was Jake or Billy or like Max or even memes, I would have been like, ha ha ha ha.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I was like, oh, Shane, yeah.

Speaker 7 This is, this is just tough.

Speaker 1 I went up to him, and he just was shaking his head. And I was like, look, dude, like, we'll, this is, this will be a, uh, we'll, we'll take this A and we'll build a house out of the A.

Speaker 1 And our friendship and our, our, you know, being co-workers, we will, we will move on from this and become stronger together by just focusing on the A and the A only.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 6 Shane, what he should take away from this is that you're genuinely upset about it.

Speaker 1 Of how bad the shirts are. Yeah, yeah, yes, yes.

Speaker 6 It was so good. Yeah, but you would.

Speaker 1 Big cat just digging a bigger hole because he realized how awkward it was.

Speaker 2 And he said the first text that I texted him, I was like, that was Shane, that was Shane.

Speaker 2 He goes, oh my God, this is so awkward. Shane, please respond.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he wasn't responding. I was like, Shane, they weren't that bad.
And then I was like, yeah, they are that bad.

Speaker 2 As soon as he responded, and then it was just like joke after joke. Just like he was emptying the clip on Shane.
And I was walking home and I was crying, laughing the entire walk home.

Speaker 2 Because as soon as he got one response, it was boom, like a machine gun just going off.

Speaker 1 Max actually told me that

Speaker 1 he was walking down the street and one of his friends' friends saw him and was like,

Speaker 1 what's wrong with Max? He was just laughing so hard in the middle of the fucking street of New York City.

Speaker 2 Yeah, she was like, is he on the phone with you right now? Because

Speaker 2 he was just laughing, like,

Speaker 2 outwardly laughing on the streets.

Speaker 1 Someone else saw it.

Speaker 8 You guys got to show us these shirts.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. I sent them to PFT.
I didn't want to send them back to Shane.

Speaker 1 Because then he'll be like, what the fuck are you guys doing?

Speaker 1 That would be really bad. But yeah, I'll probably just post the shirts tomorrow.

Speaker 8 Was it worse than Brock purdy gurdy man

Speaker 1 um

Speaker 1 no that was pretty bad shirt too yeah yeah that was a pretty bad shirt too good good point bill yeah that's the other thing no no it's not that was billy's suggestion that was billy's suggestion for a boomer yeah no we have bad shirts i've had bad shirts i've had i've had shirts that sold like three so i'm not that's part of the game that's part of the t-shirt game yeah see put zoom in on the a look at the a that a is sick

Speaker 1 yeah that's a great a

Speaker 1 it basically looks like a shirt that you would buy actually put the shirts on the YouTube So everyone should be watching the YouTube We'll put them on the YouTube so people can see them

Speaker 1 They look like a shirt that you'd buy for like ten dollars like at a beach shop at Myrtle Beach and you're like oh, this will be fun like you're like you're like seven daiquiris deep and you're like this will be fun.

Speaker 1 You wear it once in his defense.

Speaker 7 No one

Speaker 1 limits your audience severely. Yeah, true true

Speaker 1 But yeah.

Speaker 6 Yeah, like right now, I was saying I would wear it, but now that I'm thinking about what the shirt says, like, it'd be very weird if I wore that shirt right now. Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 1 That's true. Although he's back, yeah, the shirt says dog dad.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And it's just.
And why did he throw the logo also in there? Like, that was... It was the first draft.
Okay.

Speaker 7 It was first. You just getting notes and you just, you know, rip up the paper.

Speaker 1 Well, I didn't know it was him who made the fucking shirt. You got to protect me too, Hank.
You were silent. Hank never even chimed in.

Speaker 7 By the time I came in, the body was buried.

Speaker 2 The last I had said to him, I was like, I will take credit. I was like, all right, looks good.

Speaker 1 Send it.

Speaker 2 The last thing I said was, all right, looks good. Send it to Hank.
I like it.

Speaker 1 He might hate it.

Speaker 1 And then.

Speaker 1 Hank, did you reply to that? And then I didn't know he was going to put it to him. He didn't send it to you.
He didn't send it to him.

Speaker 2 But I thought that he was going to send it to you personally before he sent it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I would have told him not to probably send it.

Speaker 1 But that's all right. I don't mind.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, shit. It's the first draft.

Speaker 7 I would have given him some notes.

Speaker 1 We'll come back from this. I'm confident.
It's, you know, this is a seminal moment. This is like Zach Wilson throwing six interceptions.
Like, you got it.

Speaker 1 Well, that's a bad example because he's out of the league.

Speaker 1 It's, give me an example.

Speaker 6 Wait till the New York media hands on this story.

Speaker 1 Yeah. No, you know what? It's Michael Jordan getting cut from his, you know, high school basketball team.
That's what it is. Shane's going to be Michael Jordan.

Speaker 6 He's worth waiting Photoshops.

Speaker 1 That's true. That's true.
All right, Billy, your Fire Fest.

Speaker 8 Well, we talked about it a little bit in the

Speaker 8 interview, but I've had some weird allergic reaction, and it's just given me Kylie Jenner lips.

Speaker 8 Like, it's just my.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you look really bad. Yeah.

Speaker 6 And, like, it's just

Speaker 8 the same time my lips are swollen, that my face is swollen. No idea what's going on.
Allergist at 9 a.m. tomorrow.

Speaker 1 Hopefully we figure it out.

Speaker 8 But the worst part is, is all the better.

Speaker 1 You're still seeing the Hatman Billy.

Speaker 7 I would like to see a, you know, you guys always talk about the Ben, Ben, Big Ben injury chart.

Speaker 1 Like, I would like to see that for you for the last 12 months because just even thinking back on it there's like 10 different 10 different instances of no it's just the it's just the alpha gal tics which means i might be allergic to red meat right now because i just haven't stopped eating red meat so it could be that okay yeah no billy hit hopefully people are watching youtube's uh the youtube version mostly to see shane's terrible shirts but especially to see billy's face the swelling has gone from my lips to my cheeks i don't know what the fuck's going on yeah i'm just thinking.

Speaker 1 Sorry, Billy. I was just.

Speaker 1 One of my issues as a human being is that I love awkward moments and I also like, I'll always just make a joke. And so I'll keep making Shane jokes until like we'll be at his funeral.

Speaker 1 I'll be like, dude, do you see that fucking shirt?

Speaker 1 But yeah, Billy, you have looked better.

Speaker 8 I know. I know.
It's fine.

Speaker 8 But the worst part is you have to take all these like antihistamines and they give me sleep paralysis and I literally have to fight the Hat Man every night, which is like a sleep paralysis demon

Speaker 2 for the past week and a half.

Speaker 1 He keeps talking about the Hat Man.

Speaker 6 It's either I keep talking about the Hat Man, which is like we know who the Hat Man is.

Speaker 8 It's like, it's either I stay up all night itching, or I.

Speaker 1 Wait, PFT, who's that? Is he talking about Orthodox Jews? No, no.

Speaker 1 He's talking about

Speaker 1 a guy. It's a silhouette of a guy with a hat on.
Billy's sleep paralysis is just a Jewish person. Like, I gotta fucking get him.

Speaker 6 And the worst part is, the more Benadryl he takes, the hat keeps getting bigger.

Speaker 1 Jesus, Billy. It's terrible.
Damn.

Speaker 2 I haven't had a good night's sleep.

Speaker 1 It's really creepy. No.

Speaker 1 Oh, man. Yeah,

Speaker 1 sleep paralysis is the scariest thing in the world. I get it like once every few weeks, and it's just.

Speaker 8 Do you get the figure?

Speaker 1 Oh, I usually just get the feeling like my brain is awake, but I can't move my body.

Speaker 8 Like, I have to start sleeping, not facing the door, because if I'm facing the door, I see the hat.

Speaker 1 Dude, why don't you get a nightlight? light because then I can't fall asleep get a night light I got a couple in my way that just make get down to the fan out the hat man more visible yeah

Speaker 1 you can't sleep going towards his door I think you got a trust because that's where he shows up oh my god like they're trying to watch paralysis like the bad

Speaker 6 yeah yeah but like if there's people out there who have taken Benadryl and gotten sleep paralysis and see the Hat Man I I had somebody hit me up on Twitter after they started talking indeed about the Hat Man and their reply summed Billy up perfectly.

Speaker 6 They said, oh, Billy's mistaking TikTok for his actual life again.

Speaker 1 Oh, no. That's not true.

Speaker 8 It's in my sleep.

Speaker 6 Listen, sleep paralysis is... It's a TikTok thing, though.
Yeah.

Speaker 8 Oh, it's a TikTok thing. It's pre-TikTok.
People talk about the Hat Man all the time.

Speaker 8 It's like when you take too much Benadryl, you see

Speaker 8 a sleep paralysis demon.

Speaker 1 See, when I have sleep paralysis, yeah, I just, my brain is awake, and then I can't move my body, and then all of a sudden a fucking shirt appears, and it's Shane's shirt, and I'm like, get me out of here.

Speaker 1 This is hell.

Speaker 6 The worst is when you're totally asleep, and then your brain is like, your brain tells you that you're asleep, and then your brain tries to wake itself up, but then you enter like a second dream, and you think that you're awake because you think that your brain has tricked yourself into waking up, but you're not up yet.

Speaker 6 And then you get robbed.

Speaker 1 Then you get robbed.

Speaker 8 Or you can't punch.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you can't get it. You're trying to punch and you can't punch.
Trying to move. Then you can't move.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
No, it's very bad.

Speaker 1 All right, Jake, wrap us up.

Speaker 9 Last night I stepped in dog shit.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 I haven't done that in a while.

Speaker 9 Pretty basic, but yeah, it's dark out.

Speaker 6 How do you know it was dog shit, Jake?

Speaker 9 Because I could tell.

Speaker 1 It wasn't human shit? It was not human shit. You found out right away? Yes.
Oh, okay.

Speaker 2 You felt the squish?

Speaker 1 Because that's actually not. Squish.

Speaker 1 The worst part about dog shit is if you get inside and you're like, what does that smell? Oh, no. I knew right away.
Okay. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 9 Pretty basic, but it happened.

Speaker 6 It's not good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I once shit my pants so bad that and I tried to tell all my friends that I just stepped in dog shit and they're like, let's see your shoes. I was like, no.

Speaker 1 Like, no, no, I think I got it off. Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 I was like, Donnie Brasco. No, I am.
I'm not taking my shoes off.

Speaker 6 I sat in dog shit.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Damn it.
Someone pooped my pants again.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 Let's wrap up. What are you doing, memes?

Speaker 2 Billy's face is just getting bigger on his right side.

Speaker 1 Wait, let me see. I just just realized that half my face.
Oh,

Speaker 1 I thought you had like chaw in. No.
No. Oh, yeah.
Your face is getting bigger. I literally thought you had chaw in this entire time.

Speaker 6 Did you step in front of the camera?

Speaker 8 It's literally either.

Speaker 6 Step in front of the camera so I can see it.

Speaker 8 I make a choice every night: go to the ER or just take a bunch of Benadryl and fight the hat man.

Speaker 1 You're doing a good job. Yeah, you're making the right choice.
Those are my steps. Step in front of the camera for PS1.
Let me see. Look at that.
Yeah, I know. His face is getting bigger.

Speaker 6 You look like Stiffler's mom.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 8 What am I supposed to do? Like, I have to go to work every day. I can't just hide.

Speaker 6 I would go see a real doctor. Have you been going to, like, have you been going to a vet?

Speaker 1 How come you have to keep going back?

Speaker 2 I go to City MD and they shoot me up with Torridol.

Speaker 1 And they're like, what are you allergic to? And I was like, I'm going on Friday. You're allergic to Torridol.

Speaker 8 No, the Torridol makes it go away.

Speaker 1 Oh, man. Torridol.

Speaker 6 I think Billy's just addicted to being weird.

Speaker 7 It's also doctors open in the morning and later in the evening.

Speaker 8 No, but like I booked the allergist. It was the first time I could see it was this Friday.
So tomorrow morning, hopefully this horror is like we kill the Hat Man tomorrow.

Speaker 6 I think that's probably it, Billy. I think you have to defeat the Hatman in your dreams, and you're going to keep swelling up until you do.

Speaker 8 Hell yeah,

Speaker 1 yeah, it's going to be tough. All right, let's wrap up the show.
We got the bracket on Sunday, Titus in studio. It's going to be a fucking great, great day.

Speaker 1 Let's do numbers. Hank, have you ever gotten this? Nope.
Have you ever gotten in this seat? Nope. Oh, because you don't sit in this seat?

Speaker 6 No, I don't usually.

Speaker 1 So you've never gotten in this seat?

Speaker 6 No. Okay.

Speaker 1 Numbers.

Speaker 1 69. 18.
I mean, he didn't say it. Why did he say it? I gave him off my game.
Why did I say it?

Speaker 1 I gave him it.

Speaker 1 I gave you so long.

Speaker 7 I'm going to go 51.

Speaker 1 All right, I'll give you 69, Billy. I'll take 17.
Yeah, I'll take 17.

Speaker 1 Oh, you took 17? All right, then I'm taking 69, Billy. I'll take 96.

Speaker 6 I took 17.
