Speaker 1 Part of my take

Speaker 4 presented by barstools.

Speaker 1 welcome to part of my take presented by Game Time, the best place to get tickets. Football is back, Game Time is back.
Go check out Game Time right now if you're trying to go to a football game.

Speaker 1 Today is Wednesday, August 17th, and Hard Knocks episode two, the story of Detroit.

Speaker 1 That was, I think that's what they put on their storyboard when they're like, How are we going to piece this together? Episode one was Dan Campbell. Episode two, Detroit.

Speaker 4 Great city. Yeah.
Shout out to Detroit. The city of hope.
That's what you always have to say about Detroit. There's always a lot of hope there.

Speaker 7 And I'm hopeful for Detroit.

Speaker 4 I think Hard Knox has successfully made me believe in the Detroit Lions.

Speaker 4 Now, I'm going to be probably very wrong about that, as anyone who's ever rooted for the Detroit Lions knows, but I'm at that point where, like, yeah, I can see, I can see the Lions making some noise.

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I mean,

Speaker 1 we do let this happen to us every year with Hard Knox, but, you know, the Lions were scrappy last year when they were supposed to be terrible.

Speaker 1 Dan Campbell instills something some kind of emotion in everyone if you watch him he has he literally had like a ring of sweat right where it was spit right where his whistle was resting just whistle spit that's how much he whistles um in practice and yeah i agree with you and just just as an aside like watching the hard knocks with with the lions

Speaker 1 Honolulu Blue doesn't get enough shout outs for being a great shade of blue. Like, it's always Carolina blue.
Honolulu Blue is electric. It is very cool.

Speaker 4 And this is really hard. Knox, they're playing on expert mode now because every year they try to get you to believe in whatever team it is that they're profiling.

Speaker 4 And if they can get you to believe in the Detroit Lions, like even if they just go, if they go nine and eight, that's a Super Bowl for Detroit. Like, what a story that would be.

Speaker 4 And I saw the picture that you posted, Big Cat, of Dan Campbell and the whistle spit on his stomach. It is, it's very impressive.

Speaker 4 It's like, it looked like a scene from Alien where something was trying to escape from his belly.

Speaker 4 The only thing I was thinking was when they showed John Brown, who, by the way, should be strength and conditioning coach for this team,

Speaker 4 he would suck that spit right out of Danny Campbell's smock.

Speaker 1 In a second, yeah. So John Brown, Ahmad St.
Brown's,

Speaker 1 Ahmad Ross St. Brown's father,

Speaker 1 also Equimanius St. Brown's father, who's on the Bears now,

Speaker 1 is a former Mr.

Speaker 1 Mr. Universe?

Speaker 1 Mr. Universe.
Mr. Universe.
It was a hilarious scene. He still trains his sons.
He had not only a moment where he shamed them for drinking water and was like, what, spit doesn't work?

Speaker 1 And then he just astray at the man who catches more strays than anyone on earth, Kevin Durant, and was like, let me ask you a question. Kevin Durant, he tore his Achilles.

Speaker 1 When's the last time he did a calf raise? And it was just like,

Speaker 1 I thought we had like transported into first take. It was so perfect.
And that guy, he just rules.

Speaker 1 Like, how is he not someone's strength and conditioning coach yeah he's awesome he he should absolutely be on the payroll and i love he's the kind of guy that has the mindset of you should be able to lift your way out of any problem that you have yeah oh you're your uh your marriage is on the rocks you're not training hard enough right and and he he embodies my number one rule which is don't fuck with a guy who's wearing a protein branded hat that's a guy that will absolutely fuck you up not only that he had um I think he runs a security company and he also had the double jersey in a very weird way where it was like bears interior and then lions on his shoulders and sleeves and it was a very cool way to do a double jersey because like let's be honest like doing a double jersey it's hard to pull off obviously it's usually family members and the split down the middle is usually not the way to go he he made it look cool and maybe that's just because he's a badass Yeah, they got to get John Brown teamed up with Dale from Detroit Urban Survival Training to be the co-strength and conditioning coaches of the team.

Speaker 4 Who says no? I think they go 17 to no at that point. I agree.

Speaker 1 I'd agree. So yeah, this episode,

Speaker 1 it was pretty much Detroit, David Blau being a great husband and then fumbling the game away, which I had bet on the Lions in that game. So it was like double whammy.
I got to watch that again.

Speaker 1 All-time backfire of a pump-up speech in the huddle when he's just like, let's go get some first downs and we'll kneel it out and we'll win this game. And then like two seconds later,

Speaker 1 a whoop, that was a whoop. when he just couldn't catch the ball.

Speaker 1 And the one thing that was that I noticed, like, and I love it because they're humans, but like, you know, the whole like next play mentality, that wasn't really the case for David Blow.

Speaker 1 He was just like, this fucking sucks. I fucking can't believe I did that.
Even the guy who dropped the interception was just laying there and was like, I had the game winners.

Speaker 1 Like, yeah, you guys, like, next play, but not really because that sucked.

Speaker 4 Yeah, it did suck for David Blau because realistically, that could get him cut. And that's one of those plays where he's like, he knows what happened right afterwards.

Speaker 4 And it's something so simple that he's done it a million times and he'll do it a million other times.

Speaker 4 But he knows in that moment, it's like, okay, well, as much as Mark Brunel loves me and he'll probably cry, that probably means that I'm going to have to find a new job somewhere. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And he, I mean, I guess the only silver lining is he's definitely in the running for husband of the year. Like big wife guy, David Blau, like very supportive.

Speaker 1 That was actually a very touching little segment, but that also.

Speaker 1 Someone pointed out on Twitter because, you know, the Rodrigo, the middle linebacker from Ohio or Oklahoma State, was getting a lot of pub.

Speaker 1 And you always have to be wary of anyone who gets like a big storyline in episode one or two. Like David Blau, they probably like, you know what?

Speaker 1 They probably sat down with Dan Campbell before. They're like, who are you thinking about cutting? It's like, oh, okay, David Blau.
All right, let's get a big story in here about he and his wife.

Speaker 4 Yeah, yeah. Their kids are going to be really athletic, though.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Like, I want to draft their kid first overall, dual threat quarterback. There was another guy in this episode named, I don't know who it was, but his nickname was Big Smooth.

Speaker 4 And they brought Big Smooth in to break it down at the end of practice. And they said, all right, Big Smooth,

Speaker 4 the Serpent of Death. And you're a fucking badass if your nickname has a nickname.
Yes. The only other person I can think of is Babe Ruth that had a nickname for a nickname.

Speaker 4 But yeah, whoever the Serpent of Death is, I love that guy. Well done to you.

Speaker 4 With Rodrigo, I...

Speaker 4 I want to believe in Rodrigo. I do too.

Speaker 4 It sounds like he's awesome and he's got a cool story behind him.

Speaker 4 But sometimes coaches love to use a late drafted rookie or an undrafted rookie almost more to make a point to everybody else that's on the team, be like, this guy, Rodrigo, he's come to take your job.

Speaker 4 Like they just use him as somebody that scares everybody into playing better because coach is disappointed that you're not putting

Speaker 4 as much effort forward as Rodrigo.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it was pretty awkward for him when they just had an entire segment where the coaches were like, no one's ever done anything like this at linebacker in this building in front of all the other linebackers.

Speaker 1 And then he dropped the line that I didn't realize Hank Fraley, the offensive line coach,

Speaker 1 has been there for five years, which credit to him because he went from Patricia to Daryl Beville to Dan Campbell. Like that's that's impressive to have that stick-to-itiveness.

Speaker 1 And then I was like, oh, yeah, like if you take one look at Hank Fraley, Dan Campbell was in love right away. He's just like, yeah, that's my guy.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I feel like if you're an aggressive physical offensive line coach, then if the rest of your team is really, really bad and you you guys have bad records, you can be the one that sticks around because you can't blame anything on the offensive line at all.

Speaker 1 Well, it also just comes down to a simple moment where I'm sure the offensive linemen were like told Dan Campbell, like, we want Hank Fraley, and the offensive linemen are just the biggest dudes in the room.

Speaker 1 So they usually get what they want.

Speaker 4 Yeah, he respects mass. Dan Campbell has an excellent power stance throughout this episode as well.

Speaker 4 His feet are always wider than his shoulder width is, and he continues to set records for using the word men when he's addressing his team.

Speaker 4 We should do a drinking game.

Speaker 4 You have to drink your own spit whenever Dan Campbell says men. Yeah.

Speaker 5 And it's

Speaker 4 be super hydrated by the end.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he. I'm trying to think of the other moments he had.
He's a butt guy. He revealed that right away when he was TJ Hawkinson was wearing booty shorts and he's like, my wife used to have those.

Speaker 1 And it's like, okay.

Speaker 4 Flashback. Yeah.
Everything reminds me of her. He's the, I should, I should text her meme in real life.

Speaker 1 Oh, I forgot. Uh, Aiden Hutchinson's family.
Um, that was a funny moment when

Speaker 1 what's the Mr. Universe's name?

Speaker 1 John Brown. He was like, yeah, they're probably sitting up in that box up there in that sweet $20 million bonus or whatever.

Speaker 1 And there's like flashes to them sitting up there freaking out, which, of course, they would freak out because it's their brother, son.

Speaker 1 But it was the one moment I loved was Aiden Hutchinson made, like, I think he had two tackles to start the drive. And his mom is crying, like literally crying.

Speaker 1 And then you just hear out of the corner of the suite, his dad being like, two snaps, two tackles. I'll take it.
It's like,

Speaker 1 we are like this preseason, like that was okay. But like it was

Speaker 1 a very funny moment. And they were, you know, talking about what he should do for his sack dance and all that stuff.

Speaker 4 I brought my notebook out. I'm going pin on paper this season.
I'm going to just see how that goes. Try it on some of the stuff.

Speaker 1 I've been doing it forever.

Speaker 4 I made a note when they showed Aiden Hutchinson's family up there, but I didn't look it up. Are the Jets playing against the Lions this year?

Speaker 4 Because if so, Zach Wilson is absolutely going to show out in front of his mom.

Speaker 1 For sure. For sure.

Speaker 1 Backwards way of PFT saying that she's attractive.

Speaker 4 No, I'm saying that Zach Will, she's the kind of girl that Zach Wilson would find attractive.

Speaker 1 You get that, Hank.

Speaker 5 Yep.

Speaker 1 Week 15.

Speaker 1 You got that, Hank. He was.

Speaker 1 PFT was like crafting. How can I say this without getting the immediate bonk? The delayed bonk.
No, no, no.

Speaker 4 No, I'm putting the bonk on Zach Wilson on that one because I know, you know, he's at home. He doesn't have anything else to do.
He's recovering from surgery. He's watching this episode.

Speaker 4 He's put a big fat circle in week 15.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Billy, you got your hand raised?

Speaker 4 I would say that Aiden Hutchinson, his sisters shouldn't be referred to as Aiden Hutchinson's sisters, but rather Aiden Hutchinson should be referred to as the brother of Miss Michigan.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Okay.
So just let's

Speaker 4 give them their flowers.

Speaker 1 Yes, I like that.

Speaker 4 Mr. Michigan and Lawrence.
Yeah,

Speaker 1 nice correction there. And then the last note I had was Barry Sanders could still, like, I know we joke, but he was looking at the grass being like,

Speaker 5 I could tear this up real quick.

Speaker 1 Like, watch out. I still got some miles left.

Speaker 4 Yeah, he was looking at the grass like Zach Wilson's looking at Aiden Hutchinson's miles.

Speaker 1 There it is, yeah.

Speaker 1 That's true.

Speaker 4 And

Speaker 4 I think Barry Sanders could actually, he could get like 40 yards in a game, realistically.

Speaker 1 I think he get more than

Speaker 4 if we're being totally honest I think that he could get 40 yards behind the the best offensive line of the league maybe not the lions line who who are the best lines right now probably the browns are pretty good right cowboys I think he could I think he could get 40 yards in an NFL game yeah I mean those the miles that he left on the tire

Speaker 1 they don't go away they're still on the tire

Speaker 4 You have to remember, for every yard that he got in the NFL, he probably got like four yards going laterally or backwards.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 4 That is true. So he does have a lot of trade.

Speaker 1 Pretty good episode. Not as strong as the first one, but I would say it was a pretty good episode.
I mean, I'm still intrigued, still excited.

Speaker 1 I also want to just shout out our good friend Jared Goff.

Speaker 1 Felt like he was doing a great job on the sidelines, especially pumping up David Blau, even though he totally cost him the game and cost my bet. But again, good husband, so whatever.

Speaker 1 But yeah, that was nice to see Jared just getting in the mix.

Speaker 7 You guys also called

Speaker 7 him Tim Kennedy the other day. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Tom Kennedy. Wow.

Speaker 1 I can't believe we said something a name wrong.

Speaker 7 You confused me. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Who's Tim Kennedy? You know, we're talking about the MMA guy. I don't know.
Yeah. It's an MMA guy that's got takes online.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 What do you got, Billy? You're muted. No, I called him Tim.
And I think I echoed it. So, Billy and I in the wrong.
Hey, do you have a list for names we screwed up, Hank?

Speaker 7 That was, let me check.

Speaker 7 Just that one. Good.

Speaker 4 Hey, it's PFT here, reminding you that Boarshead makes game day entertaining elevated and effortless.

Speaker 4 Whether you order catering platters ahead from your local Boarshead retailer, or you create your own spread at home with Boarshead premium deli meats and cheeses, you are sure to impress your guests.

Speaker 4 My favorites like oven gold turkey or blazing buffalo-style chicken, paired with their classic Vermont cheddar or creamy Munster cheese, are sure to score big and help me elevate my entertainment every time, whether it's for a tailgate or a home gating celebration.

Speaker 4 Seriously, guys, it's a game-changing flavor for every gathering. Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905.

Speaker 1 All right, last thing before we get to the rest of the show, we have awesome Rosillo in studio. I hadn't had him in studio in a couple years.

Speaker 1 PFT, you are, do you want to, your arm is,

Speaker 7 this is going to be

Speaker 7 time traveling. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Well, I went to the doctor today because a couple days ago, I was doing a club fitting for for good friends over at Taylor Made, and they're going to hook me up with some sweet clubs, but I hit probably like a million golf balls and on one of my last swings, felt like a popper twinge in my elbow, and then my fingers started to go numb.

Speaker 4 So I asked Pro Football Doc about it, and he said that it might be a UCL thing. So I went to go see the doctor today.
I got diagnosed with a, they did an ultrasound.

Speaker 4 on my elbow, which is kind of cool. They put that little gel on and they rub the wand back and forth.
And so I've got a nerve damage to to my ulnar nerve, I think, and it might be a ligament.

Speaker 4 So we'll wait two weeks. I can't make the flexing motion, so I can't do this at all.

Speaker 4 Even though you're

Speaker 4 watching it on the YouTube, I'm doing it right now. So that's got to, you got to take like several bonks off the list if I can't even make my right arm.
But you're doing it.

Speaker 7 That'll probably make it worse.

Speaker 4 I can do it, but I'm not supposed to. Oh, okay.

Speaker 1 So we're kind of a bad thing.

Speaker 7 You're going to be stocked up.

Speaker 1 So basically, like more than ever, you're just in a very religious household now.

Speaker 4 you keep going to it but you're not supposed to yeah exactly it's catholicism i got prescribed one sunday mass and um basically what the doctor told me is that i'm so strong he's never seen anything like that before that my forearm muscles tore my ligament off my bone potentially so we're gonna go back in two weeks see if it's healed um that's a joke that's obviously not what actually what really happened is i'm so unathletic that i hurt my arm practicing golf not even playing golf cut that practice no i like the first part you were

Speaker 1 jacked up for a fact that you were about to break 80, and this is going to stop you.

Speaker 4 Well, yeah, I mean, I had a lot of momentum. I think I broke 130 last time.
So, I mean, we're trending in the right direction. If I keep these percentages up, I'll be below 80 in no time.
But

Speaker 4 it's kind of a bummer, but we're going to move forward. I'm not missing any work, unlike Stephen A.
Smith, who took an entire fucking month off with a shoulder surgery.

Speaker 4 Now, I might have to get surgery, Tommy John, on this.

Speaker 1 And I don't know who the fuck is Tommy John, anyways.

Speaker 4 Do we know? Yeah, he's the pitcher. He needs to rename that surgery.

Speaker 1 He's the pitcher who got the surgery.

Speaker 4 I think it needs to be renamed.

Speaker 4 Who else had it? DeGrom?

Speaker 5 Every pitcher.

Speaker 1 It's now become the thing that you're supposed to get it. Just, it's like a tune-up.

Speaker 4 Yeah, so they come back throwing faster, right? So my arm's going to come back even stronger. We'll see what happens.
If I do have to get surgery, my idea was to go get it from Dr.

Speaker 4 James Andrews because he does elbows and all that shit. So

Speaker 4 that would be interesting to have a consultation with him but the bottom line is pretty elbow guy what's that you'd think he's maybe like booked out no uh no he works on professional athlete tank and i am one but this is going to give me a good opportunity to have

Speaker 1 no i mean in my own brain okay yeah i mean you're so you're a professional podcaster that should count like he's he is a doctor of the stars you are a star exactly like doing a podcast more than anyone i should know the importance of having a solid working right forearm.

Speaker 4 That's basically all we have. But

Speaker 4 I'm going to be able to move forward, I hope, and not need surgery. But we'll go and might get an MRI in a couple of weeks.
But it's, you know, it's a challenge, but this is why we podcast, big cat.

Speaker 4 You got bit by a dog. You didn't miss a show.
I broke my foot, didn't miss a show. This is just par for the course.
So I'm hurt, not injured, looking forward to moving forward with this.

Speaker 4 But if you don't think that I'm going to milk this for all it's worth, you've got another thing coming. And I also,

Speaker 4 in theory, should be able to get workers' comp for this because it happened on the job. I was literally entertaining a client when it happened.

Speaker 1 That's facts. All right.
So, look at it. So,

Speaker 4 I've got this little brace on right now, which is, it's such a little beta brace. It's basically like the strap that you wear in a game in remembrance of somebody, but I have to keep it on.

Speaker 4 And then at night, I have to wear one that just stabilizes my arm. But, you know, like I'm talking a lot.
I'm not trying to make this about me. I'm trying to be real low-profile with it.

Speaker 4 So, we're just going to move forward and pretend like I'm fine.

Speaker 1 All right. So, I'm reading right now, Tommy John.

Speaker 1 He was the first pitcher to ever get the surgery.

Speaker 1 And the doctor gave him a 100-to-one shot of it being successful. And he got the surgery in 1970 debuted in 1969.
He got the surgery, or 1963.

Speaker 1 He got the surgery in 1974, and he pitched all the way till 1989. So look at that.

Speaker 4 He deserves it. I like those eyes.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm looking at it right now. Like, Tommy John kind of deserves the name.
The fact that he pitched an entire career after

Speaker 1 he got the surgery is pretty impressive.

Speaker 4 I'm just going to call it a PFT tune-up. That's going to be my name for it.
So, if I extend my podcasting career by another 30 years after the surgery, then I think I should get the name.

Speaker 4 30 is the number that I'm looking for.

Speaker 1 Okay, because he, so I'm looking right now, John, Tommy John went on to win 164 games after having the surgery, 40 more than before.

Speaker 1 That's pretty, you gotta, you gotta put up numbers.

Speaker 4 I got to stay on top of the charts. That's all.

Speaker 5 I have no choice.

Speaker 1 Wait, hold on. I'm going to give you the exact year.
You got to stay up on top of the charts for 14 more years after the surgery. Okay.

Speaker 1 That's easy. We will be 51 years old.

Speaker 7 Oh, fuck, that'll be good.

Speaker 1 Yo, God.

Speaker 1 We got bad looks from Billy and Hank. Well, Billy was licking his lips.
40.

Speaker 1 Billy was licking his lips. Hank looked at us like, holy shit, these ancient dinosaurs.

Speaker 4 I can't wait till we're 51 doing this podcast, still talking about fucking players' moms.

Speaker 1 I'll be your age.

Speaker 1 Dude, fucking.

Speaker 1 Like all these kids, all the kids from Hard Knocks today will be.

Speaker 4 Wait, what was that, Billy? What did you just say? In 14 years,

Speaker 4 I will be 37, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 You tell us how old you are. We don't know your age.

Speaker 4 I'm 23.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 4 So yeah, in 14 years, I'll be 37.

Speaker 4 That just made me feel really old.

Speaker 1 That's fucked up. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Like when I'm 51, it's like doing the math with, I'm sure you've done this, Big Cat, with like your kids, when they're going to graduate, that sort of thing.

Speaker 4 That makes me feel old. I'm going to be 51, and Billy's going to be my age.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, that will be, my son will be, like, going into a senior year of high school in 14 years.

Speaker 8 Yeah, he'll be Billy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he'll be, yeah, my son will be Billy. Well, he'll

Speaker 1 he'll be a little, yeah, he'll be Billy.

Speaker 1 Billy, if my son turns out to be you, I'll be very proud of him.

Speaker 1 Because

Speaker 1 every kid just takes their own path.

Speaker 4 if if billy ends up taking our job like he thinks he's going to he knows and he hires your son to be the new billy and he just constantly suspends him to get back at you

Speaker 1 but like the plot twist is my son's always on time and like a model citizen and he just suspends him for no reason

Speaker 1 i like it this is yeah this is the future folks you're looking at it so let's just hope that pft all this can be avoided if pft avoids surgery yeah i'll just say like a lot of of people are saying, thoughts and prayers to PFT.

Speaker 4 My rule of thumb is I don't need any more. I don't need any more thoughts.
Give me your prayers. I've got enough thoughts in my own head.
So just pick one, thoughts or prayers. I would prefer prayers.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Billy, you have a solution before we kick it to ourselves back in studio?

Speaker 4 I have research chemicals that could solve all of this, but PFT is being too soft to actually like attempt.

Speaker 1 Oh, is that true, PFT? Are you being soft? I have the answers.

Speaker 4 No, anytime Billy says, I have research chemicals, my answer is an automatic yes But then he started to get too far into it He was ordering from a weird place and they cost a couple hundred bucks I think Billy just Billy just likes spending other people's money So he was just like can I get your car?

Speaker 4 Joe Rogan uses like for what?

Speaker 1 Oh, well, there you go Okay, good enough I'm gonna have to do it PFT I maybe give me a floater of ivermectin on I'm gonna say PFT like

Speaker 1 If we want to stay at the top of the charts, I think you got to take the research chemicals. All right, so I want real talk.

Speaker 4 I wanted to take the research chemicals, but then Billy said that he would have to inject them into my elbow. So if I can find

Speaker 4 someone else to inject them,

Speaker 4 I'll squirt whatever liquid Billy gives me into my body.

Speaker 1 I'll inject the chemicals. Okay, thank you.
Billy, buy the chemicals. I'll give you my card.

Speaker 4 Perfect. Get the chemicals.

Speaker 1 Okay, you already have the chemicals.

Speaker 1 So that was a scheme.

Speaker 4 Wait, so you were trying to give me your old chemicals just so that you could get a new batch for yourself? No, I was actually saying I had Big Hat's card.

Speaker 1 Oh, okay. So he already bought the chemicals.
All right. Well, bring the chemicals.
I want to see the chemicals. I'll take the chemicals.

Speaker 1 I will also take the chemicals so that I don't get an injured elbow.

Speaker 4 Big Cat's going to match.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 But my hot seat is Jay Monahan.

Speaker 1 Oh, okay.

Speaker 7 TJ Tour commissioner.

Speaker 7 They're holding an all-hands meeting. All the PJ players.

Speaker 4 Can you explain as a corporate entity, what does all-hands mean?

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Is this a circle back or is this a put a pin in it?

Speaker 7 I think this is like everyone just

Speaker 7 says their opinion and then they say we're going to circle back and then nothing probably really happens. They can brainstorm.

Speaker 1 But Tiger's showing up and people... But I don't...

Speaker 7 People are acting like that's the biggest deal in the world.

Speaker 1 They're like, oh my God, Tiger's going to be there. I think that is the biggest deal in the world.

Speaker 1 Do you hear these guys talk about Tiger? I know. They're obsessed with him.

Speaker 7 But, like, what is he going to do?

Speaker 4 Tiger could right now say, I am taking over the PGA tour. It is now my tour.
I am commissioner. And there wouldn't even be like a voting process.

Speaker 4 He could just say that, and everybody would be like, yes, Tiger, you are king of golf.

Speaker 1 He's probably going to sit in front of everyone and be like, look at me. All you got to do is win like 15 majors and you'll make a ton of money.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm a perfect test case for why the PGA tour is the best.

Speaker 4 Like, the more I think about it, though, Tiger could be an advocate of the live tour because

Speaker 4 he doesn't like women near his car. We know that.
That's true. He's had issues in the past.
So there's some common ground that's going to be a good thing.

Speaker 1 He doesn't like cars in general.

Speaker 4 He doesn't like cars in general. Yeah.
Nobody should drive.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes, yeah. Maybe Tiger should be on the board of Tesla.

Speaker 1 That would actually be a perfect fit. But yeah, he's going to, like, Tiger is going to rally the troops.
Tiger's going to get everyone on the same page.

Speaker 7 That's why I said Jay De Monaghan was on the hot seat. Like, do you think it's going to be rally the troops against Jay?

Speaker 4 No, I mean, listen, I don't know anything about Jay Monaghan, but I do know that he's a game.

Speaker 7 I feel like a lot of the players have had to talk about the live when they don't want to talk about the live. Like, they just want to play golf.
They're not doing it.

Speaker 7 But I think they probably do have issues with him because of how

Speaker 7 he's handled the situation, which has made them have to handle it.

Speaker 1 And Hagger's

Speaker 4 a perfect solution. This is what should have happened from the very beginning.
Jay Monaghan made it his business to kick people off the tour if they played in another organization's event.

Speaker 1 Which is kind of badass to be like, you're off the tour.

Speaker 4 Yeah, it is awesome, but he also overplayed his hand. Yeah, and everyone's like, yeah, okay, you know what?

Speaker 4 You know what's better than winning the Fortnite challenge is getting a hundred million dollars guaranteed. So Jay Monhan just needs to be like, listen, I fucked this one up.
I'm firing myself.

Speaker 4 And we're going to put like whatever hair piece and glasses that you need to take my position. And we're going to switch it up.
And if you play on the live tour, you can also play on the PGA tour.

Speaker 4 That's what is going to happen. And it's a classic case of really overplaying your hand and thinking that you had all the leverage in the world when you actually had zero.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but Tiger's going to, this is good for Jay Moynihan. Tiger is definitely his ace in the hole where he can be like, hey, Tiger's here.
Let's all... Because Tiger's very pro PGA Tor.

Speaker 1 He turned down $900 million or whatever. So, you know.
Getting everyone, he's important for this entire P, just as important as Rory being outspoken.

Speaker 1 They need guys to be like, hey, we're not going. You know, boost everyone up.

Speaker 7 Yeah, I feel like you think this is in conjunction with the PGA and not players against the PGA. Not against them, but like more frustrated with the current and missing.

Speaker 1 They're probably going to be like, pay us more. And they're like, we're going to try to figure out how to pay you more.

Speaker 7 And the travel, did you see like there was all the people, all the lower-tier players that are like trying to make the cut?

Speaker 7 Like there's the travel where it's like they're going from like the travel schedule makes no sense where they have to go from like Arizona to like

Speaker 1 is they're going to put in guaranteed like appearance fee money where if you show up, you get paid. Even if you don't don't make the cut or if you don't, you know.

Speaker 1 That's really the big thing is that guys are like, why wouldn't I go take $100 million and have it guaranteed versus having to fight and scratch for every single dollar on the

Speaker 1 PGA tour every week?

Speaker 4 If you're in the top 50 or something like that, they'll guarantee me. Yeah.
Have some reward systems like that.

Speaker 4 The bottom line is

Speaker 4 they can't just keep going on and losing people to the live tour because that's not sustainable for them.

Speaker 1 Yeah. We'll see.

Speaker 7 And then then my cool throne, SOS Cooling and Heating.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 NIL deal.

Speaker 1 The coldest throne.

Speaker 7 The coldest throne. That's my billionaire.

Speaker 1 That's why it should have been mine. Damn.

Speaker 7 Should have won first.

Speaker 7 So SOS Cooling and Heating is a cooling and heating company.

Speaker 7 They did an NIL deal with DeColdest Crawford, and it's one of the probably the best NIL deal commercials that's come out yet because it's obviously based around your house being Decoldest.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yes.

Speaker 4 I thought Robert Griffin had a good reaction to it.

Speaker 4 He said somebody's going to start naming their kid like DeRolls-Royce, just hoping so that when they get to college, they'll get a free Rolls-Royce out of it. Not a bad idea.

Speaker 1 I actually.

Speaker 7 De Ferrari.

Speaker 1 Delexis is kind of a good name. Delexis? Delexis is like a name dude I wouldn't.

Speaker 4 Delexis is already pregnant.

Speaker 1 She's not even born yet. But Delexis, I like Delexis.
Delexis.

Speaker 4 Delexis has

Speaker 4 three types of hepatitis and two types of herpes.

Speaker 1 Delexis. I'm down for Delexis.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 All right. Good job.
Good job.

Speaker 1 Good job.

Speaker 4 Great job.

Speaker 1 Hot seat, cool throne.

Speaker 4 My hot seat is LeVar Ball because there's a new sports dad in town, Fernando Tatis. Yes.

Speaker 4 He responded to his son, Fernando Tatis Jr. That's wild.

Speaker 4 Getting suspended for steroids. He said it was a mistake that could have been handled differently.
Destroy the image of a player for such a small thing for a situation like this.

Speaker 4 is a catastrophe not just for Tatis Jr., but for all baseball. There's millions of fans that will stop watching baseball.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Millions. Millions.
Millions. I, for one, will not watch baseball without Fernando Tatis Jr.

Speaker 1 in it. How many people does he think watch the San Diego Padres? Yeah, that's millions of people.
He'll start there. But he also went even more

Speaker 1 for his son. He's going, he said they're going to start traveling around Dominican Republic, talking to young players about what happened, explaining their side.
And also,

Speaker 1 he said it was due to a bad haircut. So he got, so he says that Tatis Jr.
got a bad haircut and then got a fungus from the haircut.

Speaker 4 Yeah, the ringworm.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the ringworm. And from the haircut.

Speaker 1 And then he had to take the steroid that it clearly says that it's a steroid on the front.

Speaker 4 He's going to take his son on like a worldwide tour, educating people, like raising awareness about ringworm from bad haircuts. Yeah.
I'm just saying the steroid he did use is like an old-ass steroid.

Speaker 4 It's kind of like

Speaker 1 pot. It's been a banned substance since they invented banned substances in the MLB in 2003.

Speaker 1 Which is hilarious in its own right that that's when banned substances actually like came on the scene for MLB. But yeah, it's when steroids were invented.

Speaker 4 Yeah, but it's like a Cold War steroid. It's like Russians in the 60s.
It's the stuff that's like the East Germans used to

Speaker 4 there's like way better stuff.

Speaker 1 And it says it on the box.

Speaker 4 What this is a steroid.

Speaker 1 The banned substance is literally on the front of the box. This is illegal.

Speaker 4 Do not take me if you're if you're getting piss tested. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's

Speaker 1 trophobol? No, but

Speaker 1 no, that's the name of the product. But then right underneath it, it says clostable, which is the band substance, and Neomycini or whatever.

Speaker 4 It actually isn't the same. They just sound the same.
What?

Speaker 4 The band substance just sounds like the fungal medicine, but they're not the same at all.

Speaker 4 Oh, so he was saying that he thought that he ordered the fungal medicine and they accidentally sent him steroids. That's a classic mistake.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 It could happen to anybody.

Speaker 1 Got it.

Speaker 4 And then David Ortiz had a good take on it, too. David Ortiz was like,

Speaker 4 they just shouldn't suspend him because he's so good at baseball and he's a face of the game. I'm in for that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's actually,

Speaker 4 that makes more sense than what his own dad is doing. Dave Ortiz is right.
It's like, if you're awesome at baseball, they should just cover it up. Yeah.

Speaker 1 They call that the Peyton Manning rule. Yeah, come on.

Speaker 4 Fernando Tatisha said, yeah, it went to my wife by mistake.

Speaker 4 And then my cool throne is.

Speaker 1 That'd be funny if he got married. I don't think he's married.
That'd be funny if he got married just so that he could see it.

Speaker 4 Instead of a green card wedding? Yeah, it's just a player's card.

Speaker 1 It is a steroid wedding.

Speaker 4 My cool throne is NFL Blitz.

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 1 You guys remember NFL Blitz?

Speaker 4 Well, Hank took one of mine too. Hank took my golf one, so then I had to audible to NFL Blitz.

Speaker 1 So now you have to audible. Yeah, I'm going to have to audible.

Speaker 4 And Billy's going to have to audible too.

Speaker 1 Three audibles, right? Holy shit.

Speaker 4 This is a big mix up. But yeah, NFL Blitz is back.

Speaker 4 They're selling it

Speaker 4 without the late hits, though. What?

Speaker 1 Which is

Speaker 1 stupid. It's off it.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's basically selling porn with no nipples. It's the NFL, their statement on it is so funny.
The NFL said

Speaker 1 the NFL was warm to the idea because NFL Blitz was loved by fans.

Speaker 1 This is one of the reps from the actual arcade game. But if they're going to re-release three of Sports Video Games' most memorable arcade

Speaker 1 adaptations in a new package, they had to be cleaned up for modern sensibilities. They said, guys, if you want to do this, you've got to address these issues.

Speaker 1 The NFL was like, NFL Blitz, a video game, is too violent. The NFL told them that.

Speaker 4 Yeah, so I don't know if the NFL knows why people played NFL Blitz.

Speaker 1 It's so that you fucking swing them around and smash them into the ground. It wasn't for the articles.

Speaker 4 On this one, I'm a big time like go woke, go broke guy. Yeah.
No one's gonna buy NFL Blitz minus the late hits. That's the only reason.

Speaker 1 It's just like a worse Madden. They should.

Speaker 7 It's Techmo.

Speaker 1 Did you see the video, by the way, of Madden? They were like...

Speaker 1 It was like a meme going around. There was like Madden or like Madden gamers.
We just want you to fix the game and like update some things.

Speaker 1 And then it says Madden, and it's just a video of showing all the different ways that you can do the gritty for your celebration dance in Madden. That's incredible.

Speaker 1 It's like you can customize it this way, that way.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I think that if anything, they should make a new video game that goes the other way where you can play with like

Speaker 4 at guns on the field.

Speaker 4 You can play as Deshaun Watson and

Speaker 4 you can like nut on somebody's face to avoid getting tackled. Like go way, way, way further in the opposite direction.
Yeah. People would buy that shit.

Speaker 1 And that's all if they had like

Speaker 1 the offensive line was just dogs. Dogs, yeah.

Speaker 4 Or he's running with like dogs on a leash and they're attacking people.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 5 Aaron Hernandez is a weapon in that game.

Speaker 1 He is literally. Bye-week mode and it's just GTA.
Yeah. Dude,

Speaker 1 I mean, this is the kind of game that I would 100 million percent play.

Speaker 7 Yeah, I think for as good as Madden and NBA 2K and MLB the show or whatever, like

Speaker 7 Blitz, Slugfest, and NBA Street were all better and more fun games and the fact that they don't want like it's weird that they just like we don't want kids to have that alternate option of like a fun game of football, a fun game of MLB where it's like you can just fucking beat each other up in front of the game.

Speaker 1 So eat everything that they want. We want it.

Speaker 4 I want to play as Richie Incognito career mode and like tear somebody's arm off and then eat it like a turkey leg at a state fair on the field.

Speaker 4 I want the dirtiest possible NFL game and I will play that.

Speaker 1 It's like they basically are like, hey, here, have a pardon my cheesesteak, but no, no steak.

Speaker 1 Like, what do we order exactly? The impossible.

Speaker 7 Yeah, if we came out with an impossible pardon my cheese steak.

Speaker 1 Never.

Speaker 4 I will never do that.

Speaker 1 Imagine playing as Tim Tebow and like you see an orphan in the stance and you go up and you circumcise it real quick yeah or a guy dying yeah you save his life he's about to he's about to fucking go up into heaven and you catch him and bring him back urban meyer going like career mode on urban meyer yeah you basically urban meyer on the sideline like the faster you finger the better your team plays yeah do you your kicker just missed a field goal do you want to slit his throat or kick him in the teeth yes yes i mean this is invent this game i don't think the nfl will sign off on it but we'll just do generic colors yeah we don't need we don't need the nfl to sign off on it.

Speaker 1 We'll just do it.

Speaker 4 Part of the game will be Roger Goodell being a complete and utter dickhead. Like an actual robot that looks exactly like Roger Goodell will be the commissioner.

Speaker 1 We'll just do like the Chinese knockoffs like Burt Simpson. You know what I mean? We'll just have all the team names just be a little bit different.
That would be great. Denver Boncos.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 There it is.

Speaker 1 The

Speaker 4 Washington Commanders.

Speaker 1 Yo, so now you're now you're just doing sexual stuff. Yeah, well, I mean, we, dude, sexual muscles there.
You gotta put asses in seats. Yeah.
All right.

Speaker 1 My hot seats is, um, well, now I gotta think about it. Oh, it's the Yankees.
They suck. They can't score at all.
It's fucking. I said this on the rundown yesterday, but the Yankees are so bad.

Speaker 1 I listened to the short porch the other day just to hear the misery. Wow, that's really bad.
Yeah, they were. It was awesome.
I mean, it was, it's, it's comical.

Speaker 1 How about they had that clip last night, which was so funny that Garrett Cole, like, trying to show everyone in the dugout how he would hit a home run because no one can hit anything.

Speaker 1 I think they've scored five runs in like the last four games. Is that right? And Joey Gallo is just mashing and mashing.

Speaker 1 What is it right now? How many runs have they scored? I know they got shut. They've been shut out two games in a row today.

Speaker 9 Their last six games, 0, 3, 2, 2, 0, 0.

Speaker 1 And everyone's like, Gian Carlos Stanton's going to fix all this. It's a slump.

Speaker 7 Yeah. It's a bad time for a slump.

Speaker 9 Bad time for a slump. They've given themselves a big cushion.
They're still up 10 games.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, the Blue Jays just keep losing as well.

Speaker 4 Yeah, that's been tough to watch.

Speaker 9 Yeah, so there's the panic buttons out, but it's definitely not being hit.

Speaker 1 All right, and then my cool throne sticking in baseball is Shohei Otani. The Angels lost like one of the most comical games ever.

Speaker 1 It's very hard to see in Major League Baseball, but the Angels had it was 2-2 in the top of the ninth, and they got a guy in a rundown going to home, and just no one backed up the catcher, which is always so fucking funny.

Speaker 1 So the catcher threw it to third base, and then the guy just ran home. But Shohei Otani has been incredible.
He ranks right now third in strikeouts, sixth in the RA,

Speaker 1 ninth in batters average against, and then as a hitter, ninth in OPS, fifth in home runs.

Speaker 1 He's incredible. And he just completely lost by being on one of the more irrelevant franchises in all of the professions.

Speaker 4 I want to send a clear message here to Commissioner, whatever his name is, Manfred.

Speaker 4 If Shohei Otani gets busted for steroids, you shut your fucking mouth. Yeah.
You don't say a word about it.

Speaker 1 No, no, no.

Speaker 4 You keep that the most underwraps.

Speaker 1 You actually, if that comes across your desk and you see it you shoot yourself in the head so you make sure to not tell if that comes across your desk you make you you're like hey angels we found this you have one uh you have two options one we say that he did this or two you have to trade him so that we can just get him traded we need him somewhere else yeah let's trade him to a major market yeah i mean it's fucking it's like annaheim there's no reason that nobody cares about anaheim right like they are a big market

Speaker 1 kind of they seem dodgers are the are the big market i think that's probably the problem but i mean you've got the mets and the yankees yeah but those those have history and everything.

Speaker 1 New York is like a big place.

Speaker 4 It's just weird to me how nobody cares about the Angels. But it's just universally accepted.
We're not going to care about the Angels.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, I think there's just Dodgers fans. Then people who live in Orange County are Angels fans, and it's too nice out to care.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 it's crazy that they have two of the best players in Major League Baseball, and no one gives a fuck about them.

Speaker 1 Okay, Billy, go ahead.

Speaker 4 I had to dig deep for this one, but thank God it happened 30 minutes ago. There was a huge fight at Patriots Camp, and people are asking, are the Patriots imploding?

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. No, I've actually seen Billy.

Speaker 7 Was it just Patriots Camp?

Speaker 4 Wait, there are many, many good people on all sides, Hank?

Speaker 1 No, it was Patriots Camp. But was it a mixed practice? Is what he's asking?

Speaker 4 Was it a mixed practice? Yeah.

Speaker 1 All right. New hot seat.
The Patriots were fighting against me. Yeah, because Bill Belichick had that quote the other day where he was like, I like Matt Rule.
He's a football guy. He loves football.

Speaker 1 All right. Other hot seat? Oh, no.

Speaker 4 Oh, but all the ejected ones were Patriots.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so the Patriots were Belichick ejected his own team, of course. Okay, new hot seat.

Speaker 5 I did back to school shopping.

Speaker 1 I think Skip Bliss. What headline did you read?

Speaker 4 I think Skip Bayless actually did say this could be the last year for Belichick.

Speaker 7 He also went at Bronny Jr.

Speaker 4 Which is awesome.

Speaker 4 He just extended his career by 25 years. He hates the man's entire bloodline.

Speaker 1 No one takes it like... When you're like, oh, I'm going to take a day off, Skip Bayless is like, no, I'm going to go after LeBron's kids.
That's what he says.

Speaker 4 I mean, you have to respect it.

Speaker 7 I have a hypothetical, too, that we can get into later, possibly.

Speaker 1 Why don't we just talk about that?

Speaker 1 That's a hypothetical.

Speaker 7 It was a hypothetical that I was thinking of last night, but it was from Draymond Green's wedding. It was Rich Paul, and then LeBron, Draymond, Jason Tatum, and Steph Curry.

Speaker 1 Uh-oh.

Speaker 7 Could that starting five, including Rich Paul,

Speaker 1 still?

Speaker 1 Draymond, Steph, LeBron, Jason Tatum, Jason Tatum, and Rich Paul. I say yes.
Yeah, probably.

Speaker 1 It'd be tough, actually. I don't know.

Speaker 7 I don't even know if there was a hypothetical where I was like, yeah, probably, but also

Speaker 1 actually,

Speaker 1 maybe not, just because

Speaker 1 they would just attack,

Speaker 1 and how is he going to guard anyone?

Speaker 7 But then they have LeBron.

Speaker 7 And then

Speaker 1 you could play five on four on the other end on defense, right? And Draymond can't shoot, so you can play five on three.

Speaker 7 But you're still playing five on three against three first-team all-NBA players.

Speaker 4 I think just having LeBron be able to collapse and then kick out to Steph Curry would make it unfair.

Speaker 1 Would those guys be on their respective teams still, so it would be like a clone of them? Yes.

Speaker 1 Because I think the Warriors, like Draymond versus Draymond and Steph versus Steph, I think maybe the Warriors could beat them.

Speaker 4 Honestly, I think Steph would cook Steph.

Speaker 1 Who would call LeBron?

Speaker 1 LeBron.

Speaker 4 Oh, the Warriors.

Speaker 1 Anyone? Just throw out a name. Kavan Looney.
Lock him down. Fuck him up.
But then, like, you get clay on Rich Paul and you just.

Speaker 7 Yeah, I mean, so that was, that was, yeah. It was

Speaker 1 definitely a hypothetical, but it's like your knee-jerk, yes, your knee-jerk reaction says

Speaker 1 yes, because Rich Paul is still a human being that can play basketball. Can he?

Speaker 1 Yeah, did he?

Speaker 1 Like, really? Did he play on that the LeBron high school team?

Speaker 7 No, they met in Ashkolet.

Speaker 1 He was selling throwback jerseys. He's still a ball.
LeBron met him outside.

Speaker 1 My knee-jerk reaction says yes, but then I'm thinking about it more. Like, you, you actually can't, like, if you put any of us on an NBA court, we wouldn't even be able to possess the ball.

Speaker 1 They would just steal it.

Speaker 4 I could possess it for like a second.

Speaker 1 I think if you tried to pass it, they would, they would be way bigger than that.

Speaker 4 I'd be good at getting, I'd get five seconds every time. I think I could play a little defense.

Speaker 4 No, see, you actually believe it.

Speaker 1 I'm saying mine as a joke, but Billy actually thinks that he could.

Speaker 4 Billy's like, yeah, I put the clamps on.

Speaker 1 Billy, you got dunked on. I know, because I was playing too much defense.

Speaker 4 Right. Because you're trying too hard.

Speaker 1 You just get dunked on more. Way harder.
No, but I have experience

Speaker 1 way harder.

Speaker 4 No, I have good lateral movement. I actually think I think that team would beat any team in the NBA.
Yeah, I do.

Speaker 1 What's their bench look like, though?

Speaker 4 Good question. Leon Rhodes.

Speaker 7 Is that your best five or your best five?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 All other people from that wedding. Skip.

Speaker 1 No, not Skip. Stephen A.

Speaker 4 Shannon.

Speaker 1 Le Shannon. Lee Shannon.

Speaker 7 All right. Yeah, that was.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay, good. High price of it.
All right, go ahead, Billy.

Speaker 9 Back to school shopping.

Speaker 4 Yeah, so there's a big debate online right now. You have to go shop for your classes.
Oh, I hate this.

Speaker 1 okay never no no no say it no no no i'm not mad at you it's the

Speaker 1 i'm digging deep yeah yeah no no no math science english and history those four subjects if you have to buy a you know binder folder or you know notebook for those four subjects which color do you assign to each subject okay red blue green or yellow this is green is science this is one of those debates that if you look at the replies everyone has a different answer and you're like yeah of course everyone has a different answer because there's no answer.

Speaker 1 So it's like one of those Twitter perfect algorithms where everyone starts talking about it and debating it. It's like, no one, like, what are we debating? No one, everyone's different.

Speaker 1 No, I've got my answer. Right.
But everyone had their answer. They were all different.

Speaker 1 Science and everything. Science is green.
I agree with that.

Speaker 4 Science is green. History is...

Speaker 5 Orange or red.

Speaker 1 It's really... Sounds like you don't have an answer.
Red's the only one.

Speaker 4 It's the four primaries except it's the three primaries.

Speaker 1 So orange is the color. So it's a red.

Speaker 4 So red. What are the other two colors I have?

Speaker 4 Blue and yellow. Okay, math is blue.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I agree with that totally.

Speaker 4 And then yellow is what was the other one? English.

Speaker 1 English, yeah. Yeah, I agree.
There we go. Both.
Yeah, that's the answer. No, what are you talking about?

Speaker 4 That's the correct way. Yellow is English.

Speaker 1 I just nailed it. Because yellow is like the

Speaker 1 absolutely correct order to put it in.

Speaker 1 And it came together. I don't even have to say that.
Do you think English is blue far more? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Isn't red?

Speaker 4 No, no. Red's history because history is written in blue.
No,

Speaker 4 blue is not history.

Speaker 1 Blue isn't history. History is written in blue.
Our planet is the ocean channel.

Speaker 5 I hate this. A majority of the history of this planet is.

Speaker 1 Biology.

Speaker 1 No, you're talking about geography, Hank.

Speaker 4 You're talking about geography is blue.

Speaker 1 Science is green because science is blue. Outdoors is red.
Yeah, plants. Science is written in blue.

Speaker 1 History is not wrong. Dissecting people.
History is written in blue. Sky is blue.

Speaker 4 Hank, history is written in blue.

Speaker 1 Science has more blue.

Speaker 1 Outdoors has way more blue than it does green. History is written on the water.
You ever heard about water, dude? No, no. No, but biology is water

Speaker 1 plants. So that's green.

Speaker 1 There's fucking water everywhere.

Speaker 1 That's the earth, baby. And then if you take a water class, then it can be blue.
The sky isn't even blue, technically. It's just how we see it.
Here we go.

Speaker 4 You remember that debate we got into with Ryan Lochte of whether or not the water is blue or the pool is blue? It was an all-time moment.

Speaker 1 I just, I saw it, and I was just like, I fucking hate it. I'm out.

Speaker 4 No, you got to embrace debate on these.

Speaker 4 The dumber the conversation is, the more passionately you have to care about.

Speaker 1 Yeah, this is one of those ones where like

Speaker 1 people do regional things like this is called called this, and it's like, yeah, and then it's called this here, and then it's called that here. People are like,

Speaker 1 snow, like, isn't a big deal, like, someone from the south. And then everyone argues about that.
It's like, yeah, it depends on where you fucking grew up.

Speaker 4 Math is blue because chalkboards are blue.

Speaker 4 Okay. I didn't, I don't really follow that one.

Speaker 1 But have you ever seen a blue chalkboard?

Speaker 4 History could be orange, but there was no orange option.

Speaker 1 No, aren't they like grayish, greenish?

Speaker 1 Come out blue to me. All I know is what?

Speaker 4 No, they're whiteboards now.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I know they're whiteboards. They're not going to be red.
No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 4 Math is written in blood.

Speaker 1 This chalkboards are not blue. No, they're not.
They're green. They're green.
Yeah, they're green or gray. They're not even closer.

Speaker 1 I had black ones.

Speaker 4 But when the chalk gets involved, it gets bluish.

Speaker 1 I would just never. I would end up having like one binder.

Speaker 4 I didn't look at it.

Speaker 7 Yeah, a bunch of different shit in it that I could never find.

Speaker 1 All I know is that

Speaker 1 you're in school.

Speaker 4 You're in school school. You're a massive loser.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I'm not a real thing of this. What are you doing until you're

Speaker 1 on your first day? anything you're now. First day, I'd be like, all right, this is the year I'm going to be organized.
I got to see it. Now it's just

Speaker 1 an agenda. Now it's just changed to like, I'm doing it right now where I'm like, this is the year I'm going to win all my NFL bets.
I got a system.

Speaker 1 I'm just going to school every year.

Speaker 4 I got a sick-ass Trapper Keeper. This is the year that I'm completely organized.
This is my homework to be done. And I put it here when I'm done with the homework.

Speaker 4 Then by week two, there's just like papers falling all over the place.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 4 If you ever wondered, those kids just shoved papers in their backpack

Speaker 4 what they're up to right now. in podcasting.

Speaker 1 They're podcasting.

Speaker 1 The only reason I clicked on this thing, too, was because it said math was trending. So I was like, oh, I hope this is one of those situations where...
Nerd alert.

Speaker 1 Well, no, because I thought it was one of those dumb things where someone doesn't know the order of operations and people are arguing about something that is very basic.

Speaker 4 Pimdas, bro.

Speaker 1 And then I clicked on it. I was like, god damn it, I'm in hell.

Speaker 4 No, I listen, that is that's such a dumb debate that I actually love it.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I just also just hate

Speaker 1 to shudder at the idea of school.

Speaker 4 And also I have the correct take on it, so that's always helpful.

Speaker 1 Billy, next one.

Speaker 4 Cool throwing Hillary Clinton. She killed Freya the Walrus.

Speaker 1 Yeah, she did? Yeah.

Speaker 4 R.I.P. Freya the Walrus.

Speaker 7 Would that put her on the hot seat?

Speaker 1 No, I guess she got away with it again.

Speaker 1 What's the...

Speaker 4 Walrus got shot.

Speaker 1 And Hillary Clinton killed him. Norway.
Yeah. Well,

Speaker 4 first of all, Billy,

Speaker 4 we don't know that it got shot. It definitely got shot.
So Freya the Walrus is the new Harambe. Right.
So it was. Hillary didn't kill him.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 4 Billy was making a joke about Hillary Clinton, but the story of Freya the Walrus is that it was a walrus that was in this fjord in Norway, and it was like climbing on boats and shit, and everybody loved it.

Speaker 4 All the people that lived there would go up and like play with it and try to like mess with it a little bit. And then the officials in Norway were like, yo, this walrus is getting too close to humans.

Speaker 4 Please stop getting so close to it. The people didn't stop.
And so then the Norwegian officials, they just fucking killed the walrus.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, I saw a story, but I didn't.

Speaker 1 Is there something I'm missing? Just Hillary Clinton kills people.

Speaker 4 That's the joke that Billy was making. God is, it's, yeah.

Speaker 4 But Freya the Walrus was fucking killed. We don't know.
It said she was euthanized, too.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Which that probably just means that they shot it.

Speaker 1 Well, they probably, yeah, they shot it with poison.

Speaker 5 Or blew it up. Yeah, they probably.

Speaker 4 Yeah. But Freya didn't hurt anybody.

Speaker 1 3,000 pounds. That's fucking massive.
Freya. Imagine Freya playing nose tackle.

Speaker 1 Actually.

Speaker 1 You can't run on that. Exactly.
Fuck no.

Speaker 4 Freya couldn't get side. She couldn't get off the field after a play.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 5 Okay.

Speaker 1 Jake.

Speaker 4 PFT have a little something on your notes.

Speaker 1 I do. Yeah.
Uh-oh. Oh.

Speaker 4 What is it?

Speaker 1 Booger? Maybe. Maybe suit.
Booger.

Speaker 4 Jake, that was such an alpha move right there. In the middle, you waited until your turn.

Speaker 1 And then you're like, oh, yeah.

Speaker 9 I was trying to motion to you.

Speaker 1 I didn't want to interrupt.

Speaker 4 I thought you were doing cocaine.

Speaker 1 Has he had it the whole time?

Speaker 9 I noticed it like five minutes ago.

Speaker 1 Oh, damn. Did I get it?

Speaker 9 Let me see. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Shit, Booger episode. So I did this entire episode with a booger.

Speaker 9 Not the entire, because I stopped you.

Speaker 5 That's true. That's a fact.

Speaker 4 Thank you for your service. Fact check.
That's just unreal. That's an unreal Jake moment right there.
To wait till it's his turn and be like, by the way, before I get started, you look like.

Speaker 1 You guys were having a debate about colors.

Speaker 9 I didn't want to interrupt that.

Speaker 1 You can't interrupt that.

Speaker 1 You can't interrupt that. Very important debate.

Speaker 9 My hot seat, I think I talked about this a few months ago, but now it's finalized, the NBA Christmas schedule. It came out.

Speaker 9 People are either happy or sad about it, but then you realize there's an elite NFL tripleheader the same day.

Speaker 1 And they did it the same.

Speaker 1 What's the NFL or what's the NBA?

Speaker 9 Bucks, Celtics, Sixers, Knicks, Suns, Nuggets, Lakers, Mavs, Grizzlies, Warriors.

Speaker 7 That's Bucks at Celtics?

Speaker 1 Yes. But you have Dolph Packers.
Yeah, no,

Speaker 1 they did it so that each market is fucked by the NFL. I remember I treated that when the schedule came out.
It's genius by the NFL.

Speaker 9 Yeah, you have Green Bay, Miami, Broncos, Rams, and Bucs, Cardinals.

Speaker 1 That's a very good triple header. Wait, so say the NBA again?

Speaker 9 Bucks, Celtics, Sixers, Knicks, Suns, Nuggets, Lakers, Mavs.

Speaker 1 So Cardinals are playing Suns. Packers are playing Bucs.

Speaker 1 They crisscross. The Dolphins are playing.

Speaker 1 He's playing. But yeah.

Speaker 9 Disrespect continues.

Speaker 1 Rams and the Lakers?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
They just fucked.

Speaker 1 It's so great. They just were like, oh, here are your top teams that you're going to use for Christmas Day.
We're going to steal. Yeah, we're going to steal them.

Speaker 4 NFL is coming.

Speaker 1 Like, do you think that anyone in the state of Wisconsin is going to be watching the Bucs over the Packers?

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 9 Right, because it's a regular season game versus this is going to be, what, week 15? Like, this will be very important games, and they're high calories.

Speaker 1 NFL did it again. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And cool throw them, big cot, the Bulls.

Speaker 1 Yeah, this is teasing. I don't like teaser.
Gianna says he is not ruling out.

Speaker 1 Down the line, you never know.

Speaker 9 Maybe I play for Chicago. Yeah, no, he's teasing me.

Speaker 4 Is that a booger completely gone?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 4 I feel like I still have a booger right now. No, you're good.

Speaker 1 Yannis.

Speaker 7 Maybe on the inside.

Speaker 1 There's no chance he's going to play for the Bulls. He's teasing.

Speaker 9 I feel like the Bucs fanbase and front offs can't be happy with that comment, though.

Speaker 5 I think they probably are because he's clearly teasing.

Speaker 1 I'm being teased.

Speaker 1 I don't like being teased like this.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's not nice.

Speaker 1 Very mean, Giannis. Fuck you.

Speaker 1 PST is just picking his nose now.

Speaker 4 Well, I'm fucking.

Speaker 1 Jake has to be struck. You don't have anything on it anymore.

Speaker 4 But I feel like I have one. I feel like I didn't get all of it.
No, you're good.

Speaker 1 Thanks, Jake. Okay, let's get to Ryan Russell.
Extra long.

Speaker 1 We do a Mount Rushmore with him. We talk, we catch up with him.
He's in studio. Before we do that, PFT, you got a quick word from one of our sponsors.

Speaker 2 All protein bars generally taste the same, but not one bars. One-made protein bars are actually delicious with Reese's and Hershey's.

Speaker 2 Only one Reese's peanut butter lover's protein bar is made with Reese's peanut butter, and only one Hershey's cookies and cream protein bars is made with Hershey's cookie bits while delivering 18 grams of protein and 3 grams of sugar.

Speaker 2 One bars are the perfect protein bar to get you through your busy day, whether you need a quick pick-me-up between meetings or you need some fuel to power you through your next workout.

Speaker 2 One also has other delicious flavors like birthday cake, maple glazed donut, and blueberry cobbler. Find all one bars at a retailer near you or on amazon.com.

Speaker 4 Now, here's Ron Rossillo.

Speaker 1 Okay, we now have one of our favorite guests ever, a good friend. Treat, just a real treat to have him in studio.
What's the record? What? What most recurring guest?

Speaker 4 Probably Lenny Dykstra.

Speaker 1 No, I think someone actually did the math. I think Whitney was number one, and like maybe Mike Portnoy was number two.
It was something like that. But you're up there.

Speaker 1 Someone has to repull it. I think you're up there.
It is Ryan Rosillo. He is in studio.
You guys asked me first. I was going to be on the first one ever.
And then ESPN said no. Oh, yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 And then Rachel Nichols didn't ask for permission and just was on it like three weeks later. Yeah, you don't think about that.
No. But Bomani did it too.

Speaker 1 They didn't say anything to him. No, I don't think about that at all.
Because I remember you guys were like, hey, we're starting up a podcast because we're all out in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 1 They're like, we want to have you on first. I was like, oh, that's awesome.
Great. And then I asked one person and they were like, oh, yeah, that'll be cool.
No problem. And then it made the rounds.

Speaker 1 And they're like, no, he absolutely can't do that. And then Chris Long was the first guest.
Yeah. Yeah, which is actually better.
It would be a cool thing to say.

Speaker 1 Like if I were, you know, on campus somewhere, I'd get maybe shirts made. But it was also a race.
It was also the worst interview.

Speaker 1 It was the worst interview we ever did because we thought we were so funny that we were going to do, we did, we were like, oh, yeah, PTI does five good minutes. Let's do four good minutes.

Speaker 1 Yeah, nobody's come up with that joke.

Speaker 1 We were literally playing him off before we even asked him a question. It was so bad.
We're like, yeah,

Speaker 1 maybe we don't do that.

Speaker 4 You know what would be a good segment to do at some point with you? Maybe you can remember some from right now, but like the worst segments that you ever thought of for your own podcast.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I look, the radio show would be way more fun to try to figure out because I remember forever post Van Pelt, Canel and I, like my thing with radio shows or podcasts, it's always like you want to find a way to finish strong.

Speaker 1 You want to have an element that people are kind of looking forward to. And I always feel like with radio shows, we'd be like, okay, this is the shortest segment of the 12.

Speaker 1 I want to get the fuck out of here.

Speaker 1 And that was the segment. Right.
The radio, like almost local, nationally, everywhere I would listen to the end of radio shows. I'm like, the worst segment is always that last one.
So try to fix it.

Speaker 1 And Scott and I did some different stuff, and it kind of just worked. And then Danny and I were constantly trying different stuff, and it was horrible.
We like went 0 for 12 on them.

Speaker 1 Like, they just weren't working.

Speaker 1 Do you ever think about doing bringing back Who's the Jerk with Cerudi and Kyle?

Speaker 1 How would that play? See, the best part about the Who's the Jerk thing.

Speaker 1 For people who don't know, they did

Speaker 1 one of the funniest clips of all time. I'm very proud of it.

Speaker 1 and Rosillo and Stanford Steve. They did an entire segment that was who's a jerk, and they would basically just name something that someone in the room does.
Like, I remember when you're like,

Speaker 1 what was it, Steve Litters all the time? Yeah, yeah. So it was just so, it was just basically everyone ripping each other for being an asshole.
I mean, obviously, I can do.

Speaker 1 two different versions of this, and there's always one that's extremely long, but I was in this mode of, you know, trying to prove to people that I thought I was like good, not only as a host, but on the creative side of things.

Speaker 1 And I was always trying to figure out, like, okay, how can we do something? Like, let's keep trying to do things. And if we fail, it doesn't like it's radio.
You should fail a million times.

Speaker 1 You know, you should have a ton of bad ideas. You know, it's every day you're doing 15, you're doing 15 hours a week.

Speaker 1 So I remember we were at AM for the rematch, Manzel against Bama, the year after they'd gone to Tuscaloosa to beat him. And Scott and I did a show, and then I was also doing College Game Day Radio.

Speaker 1 And I remember, I don't know, we were some like fucking restaurant and we were in the parking lot. I go, I have this idea.
And I go, it's going to be really hard to explain.

Speaker 1 I go, but we're all friends, right? We're all friends and we travel a lot. Like I'm with Steve.
I was with Stanford Steve more than any other person for like a six year.

Speaker 1 His wife has probably ranked ahead of me for him.

Speaker 1 For me, it was Steve. And so I go, I think it would be really fun if we just call each other out for every shitty thing that we have about us and then do it for the audience.

Speaker 1 and just let the kind of questions fly. And we set it up as like a question thing of like, do you do this?

Speaker 1 Or why do you do this or what do you think of these things and no one got it right everybody's immediately like what are you talking about it's the airing of grievances yeah yeah it's like who's the jerk but it wasn't necessarily that it was just trying to come to some conclusion that also worked for the audience and so then i explained it to my father and he was like

Speaker 1 that's one of the worst ideas you've ever had

Speaker 1 Because you know, it's kind of like in college one time we decided to just say, and I think I've shared this with you before, but one day seven or eight of us in a room were like, all right, let's all tell each person what we say about them behind their back.

Speaker 1 Bad idea. I love it.

Speaker 1 This is also

Speaker 1 my buddy who you've met in Chicago. He does the trick at bachelor parties when we're all drunk and he takes out like a big piece of paper.
He's like, the bachelor, rank us as friends. I love that.

Speaker 1 It's the most awkward thing ever. It's so funny.
I love it because I think it just keeps us all sharp. We need more of that kind of stuff.
And so that was, by the way, a horrible idea.

Speaker 1 So my dad was like, look, you know you and you don't necessarily love being fucked with. And he's like, Scott doesn't exactly seem like a guy who loves to be fucked with.

Speaker 1 And he's like, Stanford Steve kind of just rolls with punches, doesn't give a shit as much.

Speaker 1 He's like, if you do this and you do it live on the air, where you start basically being like, why do you do this? Or what are you, like, it's going to be really bad. So then I was like off the table.

Speaker 1 And then I kind of brought it back again. And Scott's like, why do you want to do this?

Speaker 1 Do I do stuff? Yeah. You guys want, like, then it started turning to like an insecure thing.
Right. Yeah.
So I go, all right, fuck it. And then somebody else was like, hey, let's change it this way.

Speaker 1 And then I got really weird about it. And then Scott's like, hey, it's fucking who's the jerk? This isn't the Mona Lisa, like relaxed,

Speaker 1 creative guy. And so then we did it.
And it was hilarious. Like, Stanford Steve was like, who hates you more? Men or women, Ryan? Yeah.
And you see. And I was like, wow, that's deep.

Speaker 1 I was like, that's a tough one.

Speaker 1 And I was like, probably

Speaker 1 at first men, longer term women.

Speaker 1 And then

Speaker 1 Scott, I forget. We were like, what is it? What is it about you?

Speaker 1 Like when you travel and it isn't going your way do you think you're fun to hang out with or something i don't remember it word for word and then the stanford steve one i just straight up was like

Speaker 5 why do you litter

Speaker 1 and you told the story like he just throw he just throws shit outside of the car yeah is he like is he like throwing a cup out of the window like a full styrofoam cup I think littering is like one of the most fucked up things you can do.

Speaker 1 We want to know why because it's super solvable. Right.
It's just

Speaker 1 keep it in your car for a little bit longer. There's going to be a trash can at some point.
I promise you.

Speaker 1 They have them everywhere yeah a lot of places a lot of states have he got a lot of blowback he's that he had a lot of people being like dude you litter because you were we were in the car for game day and you know he he he always drove and i think he like threw a piece of gum in and then just took the wrapper and rolled the window down and i was like what the

Speaker 1 that's such old school litter that's like 1970s yeah seriously i was like that's like back of the school bus like i threw something out the window and i'm like you actively it took you more effort to litter than it would have to just throw it on the floor like are you serious it probably feels cool though to like throw something big out of a window i would imagine it's like ron burgundy throwing a burrito yeah just like throwing a full bag of combos out the window and i was just so like what the like i'm friends with a guy that does this and of all the other stuff that we all do that we would probably like to be better at or just eliminate from our game in general.

Speaker 1 But yeah, he doesn't litter anymore now. But it the you're like the who's a jerk is genius because it is true.
Like when when you're together, we'll be on trips and stuff.

Speaker 1 And people will always ask, do you guys ever get in fights? And we actually honestly have never gotten into a real fight.

Speaker 5 You guys have never gotten into a fight.

Speaker 1 Not a real fight. But what will happen?

Speaker 1 What will happen is, and it happens every trip where it's like we'll be at the end of the trip and we'll just be sitting in an Uber all of a silent. Because we're like,

Speaker 1 it's time for us to all just be alone for a minute.

Speaker 4 But we have that level of awareness where we know that if we're going to talk to each other,

Speaker 4 we're going to get into like little, minor little arguments that'll turn into something bigger. So our way to get around that is to just bring Billy around.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 And that way we get all of our aggression out on him. And so that way it's like me and Big Cat are still a team.
Right. We have Billy to shit on.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Billy. I think that's very helpful for me.
Billy and I have never, yeah. He seems to fill the Mario Chalmers role a little bit.
Yeah, he is. On the show.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's pretty crazy you guys have never fought.

Speaker 1 It's funny because I was just out in the hallway talking to one of the guys about SVP and Rasillo and he and I said the funny thing about that show was like a lot of people think I got the show because I was his friend and he just liked me on the air.

Speaker 1 We weren't friends at all. And then we became friends because of the show.
And to be in a room with a guy four hours every day for six years, we didn't have five fights.

Speaker 1 And the four, maybe the three or four that we had, we had two that were pretty good.

Speaker 1 They're both definitely my fault because I was like, you know, sort of being like, you know, that was my own shit of being insecure of being there and kind of having this platform and knowing nobody wanted me to have it.

Speaker 1 And, you know, sometimes it would just build up. But I always feel great.
Like, I've seen radio shows where guys fucking hate each other. Oh, yeah.
I mean, Mike and Mike at the end.

Speaker 1 Like, Mike and Mike at the end, that 30 for 30, they're like, they literally did not speak to each other unless it was on air. They would sit down in silence, and then the light would turn on.

Speaker 1 They would talk, do a show, and then walk away in silence, which is nuts. That's nuts to me.
Like, that's such a level of. And I, I, I, I, wait, did I say Mike and Mike? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, I, I didn't mean Mike and Mike, but also them. Yeah, because I was kind of like, there's a 30 for 30 for Mike and Mike.
Mike and the mad dog. Yeah, yeah.
They, they were. Mike and the dog.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 No, there was a story they could. But Mike and Mike

Speaker 1 were the same.

Speaker 4 Mike and Mike wouldn't talk to each other.

Speaker 1 So I guess the key is to just not have a Mike.

Speaker 1 That's a good way. If you're a program director listening right now, don't hire anybody.

Speaker 1 I've had fights with Hank, but I've never, and I think PFT has as well, but I think PFT and I always have a good understanding of

Speaker 1 we're in it together.

Speaker 1 We are. It's just we always

Speaker 1 have a back man. I mean, it really is.
I mean, without the sex, usually for most shows. Well, that's why we have Batgirl.
so people thought that me and pft were maybe

Speaker 1 we we kiss we kiss every year

Speaker 4 on his birthday when it turns into my birthday we kiss but that's just something that's more of a ritual tradition that's a tradition

Speaker 1 there's no sexual images behind this yeah isn't it cool when people do inside jokes in your face yeah that i can't even explain back girl

Speaker 1 I don't even like know what to say anymore. Yeah, anyway,

Speaker 1 I know.

Speaker 1 I saw some of the Batgirl stuff and I just kind of gave up.

Speaker 1 I don't don't think I know what you're doing.

Speaker 1 I don't know what you were doing.

Speaker 4 You'd be dumber if you found out the origin behind it. So just roll with it.

Speaker 1 No, I did appreciate reading some of the stuff because it was like, why is it always the female heroes? Right. And it was like, is that what it is? Yeah.

Speaker 1 I don't think that's what it is.

Speaker 4 Yeah, DC just ate 90 million because they're like, you know what?

Speaker 1 I mean, it hates to be that guy, but it's not like a tax motivation. Yeah, let's just

Speaker 4 not let the broad on the big screen.

Speaker 1 Yes. All right.
So you were just. Every time I say something, Russell looks around like, oh, my God.
I got you. I saved you.

Speaker 1 No, no. I I know a guy who actually uses the word broad.
And I'm like. Jim Florentine?

Speaker 1 But I just feel like, do you be like, any broads out tonight?

Speaker 1 Where the dames at?

Speaker 1 That's like Pete Rose's quote. Did you see that the other day?

Speaker 1 When a reporter asked,

Speaker 1 he went out for the Phillies because it was like the 50-year anniversary or whatever it was.

Speaker 1 And they're like, a reporter was like, hey, are you going to comment about the sexual misconduct allegations against you? And he's like, I'm here for the Phillies. I'm here to celebrate this.

Speaker 1 so why don't you like mind your own business babe he said babe

Speaker 1 what do you think you were going to get from pete rose uh nothing i never expect anything from him i i always you know i i don't know we do in pete rose this is august yeah i tell you what let's ask russillo all the questions that we get asked yeah but we'll just redirect them towards him who's the best interview interview you've ever had ryan uh you know what's actually i shared this on the podcast but the bill russell interview that i did in the first year i was ever on the air was one of the coolest things i've ever done because I was nervous as shit.

Speaker 1 I couldn't believe we only got him because we were promoting some other thing that his handler was doing. So it was rare.
He never did anything. Right.
And so really nervous.

Speaker 1 I'm doing a morning show with a couple other guys in their 20s. We barely have any hours under our belts doing this radio show.

Speaker 1 And somehow we end up with him in the interview, which was crazy to begin with. And as soon as the host introduced him, he stopped us and interrupted us.
And we're like, fuck.

Speaker 1 Like, this is going to suck. He's going to be like, who are these idiots? He's going to be Korean.
And he goes, if you're going to introduce me

Speaker 1 instead of Hall of Famer, an 11-time champion, I would appreciate it if you introduced me and were like, oh, no, as captain of the Boston Celtics.

Speaker 1 And I was like, oh, hell yes. Yeah.
So that one's always, because it was so early and it was a big deal.

Speaker 1 I thought you were going to say Brandon Marshall.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 the other one. I'm probably most proud of that Brandon Marshall interview.
For those that don't know, we were pitched Brandon Marshall the receiver. It was confirmed by everybody.
We were good to go.

Speaker 1 I opened up the Zoom and I'm like, that's not Brandon Marshall.

Speaker 1 But it was.

Speaker 1 But it was, but it wasn't. And I'm immediately like double checking an email and I'm going, what the fuck are you going to do right now? Who is this? And I'm like, what's up, man?

Speaker 1 And he's like, hey, how's it going? And I was like, all right, cool. And I'm like, I can't go in the Zoom chat.
And I'm trying to like message Saruti being like, or Kyle.

Speaker 1 I think it was just Kyle at that point. And I was like, what? And so.
It's the first question. You can go back.
We left it up because I was like, fuck it. I was like, what's up, man?

Speaker 1 What have you been doing?

Speaker 4 like hoping to find some sort of common ground with his answer of what he's been doing because I'm trying to like

Speaker 1 why would I have a different Brandon Marshall that he would think he's like hey I'm doing one of these sports podcasts tomorrow like why does he think this is okay right if this isn't like something's going on and then I actually did remember I'm like oh I think he's that Denver guy I kind of like their yeah he was a Super Bowl yeah I like their linebackers that year but I still I mean you guys know how this is like if you let your head get fucked with in the process you can make it way worse oh Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 So now I'm like, you may think it's the Broncos linebacker, but now you're so screwed up because you can't believe that somebody confirmed this. And then as he was answering, I'm checking the email.

Speaker 1 And I was like, no, it's actually the receivers confirmed on the email from the person. So by the third question, I finally like piece it together.

Speaker 1 And then Kyle was like, what do you want to do with that interview? And I go, leave it up, and then we'll tell everybody what happened. Yeah, huh? It was great.
I was actually proud of myself.

Speaker 1 Yes, yeah. Yes.

Speaker 4 What else do we get? Oh, what's Dave Portner like in real life?

Speaker 1 Is he the same guy or

Speaker 1 teddy bear?

Speaker 1 I haven't hung out with Dave in a long time, but I met Dave,

Speaker 1 I met Dave with McShea. So I had McShea in studio in 03 because I was reading all of his war room stuff when he was still with sporting news.
So we were about the same age.

Speaker 1 We were both living in Boston. McShea and I, you know, pretty quickly hit it off.
And then he came up to the studio to do some in-studio stuff with us and he brought Portnoy.

Speaker 1 And he's like, hey, this is my buddy Dave. And I was like, oh, hey, what's up, dude? And he's like, yeah, I do bars to sports.
And And I was like, oh, that pamphlet you guys hand out.

Speaker 1 He's like, well, it's not a pamphlet.

Speaker 1 It was like immediately he was all seized up. Like, fuck this guy.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 then they actually did some radio stuff from the place, which is another like old story. And,

Speaker 1 yeah, so I've actually known, I've known, I mean, we're not like, you know, I'm obviously a lot closer with Billy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. How much does Big Cat make?

Speaker 1 Good question.

Speaker 1 You know what's cool for you guys is nobody really has any idea. No,

Speaker 1 at ESPN, we all knew what every single one of us made. And I remember one time, like, somebody asked me, like, what's your goal?

Speaker 1 I go, I want to walk to the cafeteria at ESPN and have every other on-air person motherfuck my contract. Yep.
I was like, that's my goal at this company.

Speaker 1 Because I want everyone here in the salad bar to be nice to me. And then when I walk away, be like, I can't fucking believe what they signed Rasillo for.
Never happened. Never happened.

Speaker 4 Who was that one guy at ESPN? Because I think we get it mixed up occasionally. Was it Polly or was it Mac Brown that used to go to all the little kiosks where they'd sell candy?

Speaker 4 He thought it was free. He thought it was free the whole time.
Nobody ever stopped him. He would just take candy bars.

Speaker 1 I believe I'm to blame for that mix up because I think I've told it both ways. Okay, maybe it's both of them.
I wouldn't be shocked. I wouldn't be shocked if Lou Holtz was in the mix on that one, too.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Because all the stuff was just there, but it was monitored by cameras.
And then somebody realized either Mac or Pole. I think it might have been Mac.

Speaker 4 I think Pollyon's got bigger. He's got more room in his pants.
He used to wear those giant khakis.

Speaker 1 Pollion was one of my favorite guys ever.

Speaker 1 Like when we did an ESPN draft of putting together your best like seven-on-seven team of all the guys that played quarterback, receiver, whatever, O-line, and then we talked Pollyon into doing it with us for two segments.

Speaker 1 It's the most annoyed I've ever seen anyone ever for a radio interview. Because we'd be like, Canel's like, hey, I'm still on the board.
And Pulling would be like, no.

Speaker 1 That's fucking incredible. What other questions do you you guys get all the time?

Speaker 4 How much do you make per episode?

Speaker 1 Yeah, so that's the thing. Yeah, that's the thing.
I don't see your salaries. I always see the salaries.
$75,000. Well,

Speaker 1 I just told people that. People believe it.

Speaker 4 I signed a new contract in June, and I

Speaker 1 thank you. Hey, by the way, you didn't tweet out anything about that.
Well, I did.

Speaker 4 I was pretty normal. I addressed it on the show.
Yeah, it's pretty standard. Like,

Speaker 4 I didn't want to put anything out about it, but then I found out that somebody was snooping around. They were going to write an article.

Speaker 4 So I said, okay, I'll just say it on here, and we'll get the clicks for it.

Speaker 1 So wait, you said how much you made on the podcast? No, well, I do.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I make three board apes per episode, and then I get a Slurp juice to go along with that, which you can then use to create a new ape.

Speaker 1 I'm still saying crypto $75,000 an episode. I'm still saying USD currency, yeah, but it's $85,000 now, yeah, because inflation.
Thanks, Biden. No, but how do you think he's doing his job? Biden?

Speaker 1 I'll just say this, and I really wish I'd handled it before. I love you.

Speaker 1 I love you so much because we could ask a question or joke, and you'll be like, well. Yeah, I'll give you an answer.
You always answer.

Speaker 1 I don't like any politicians. I really don't.
Like, I think something's wrong with you if you want to be one. I agree.
And so if I am critical of,

Speaker 1 like, a Republican, someone would be like, oh, typical fucking ESPN, whatever. Like, when I got arrested, Fox News was so fired up.
These are like shithead liberal ESPN guys arrested.

Speaker 1 And I was like, wait a minute. Is that what's happening to me? Like, Fox News is excited because of this.

Speaker 1 And then on the other side like i'll see other dumb shit that is left and i'm like that's fucking stupid too so uh i just i'm not a huge fan because you know here's like this is actually something i've talked about before but like there's a huge lesson in the sam hinkey run with the sixers all right let's go i like this we are talked to in the way that we apparently prefer to be talked to yep all right And so when you see politicians searching for the most vanilla answer that's like the least offensive to either poll or, you know, like

Speaker 1 you're like, yeah, we can say like we don't like to be talked this way, but we actually do want to be talked to this way. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So where Hinkey was unapologetic and he's like, yeah, I have fucking guys that we could cut from the G League playing on this team.

Speaker 1 Like whenever anybody does like would Kentucky beat, I think the best Kentucky team with like five lottery picks would have beaten one of those tanking Sixers teams because they had one point like eight guys in the roster that had never played more than 500 NBA minutes.

Speaker 1 And since he was so unapologetic about it and didn't do like the Carlos Boozer one year, 13 million that other teams had done or put guys out of position, he was just like, I'm making sure I'm giving myself the best chance.

Speaker 1 And he didn't massage the message at all. That to me is always this like really important message that because he didn't play the game with us, we got more mad at him.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 He definitely could have done it and done it a different way, been better with the media, been more open, pretended he wasn't really doing it, even though everybody like teams are tanking, but we don't want to be told it.

Speaker 1 It's fucking crazy. And that's why like it, to me, is a clear relation to how politicians talk to us.
Like, we can all say, oh, these guys are phony and I hate it.

Speaker 1 And it's like, yeah, but if they told us how they really felt about shit,

Speaker 1 we would lose our minds. So, you know, I don't, whenever anybody jokes about the political shit, you know, post everything that happened, I did a bad job a couple years ago.

Speaker 1 I would be like, I'd love to talk about it, but there's no point. There's no point really because at some point.

Speaker 1 And look, like, when I was at first, when I first was at the ESPN, so it's 06, there was a sign sign-up in the radio department that said, if what you're talking about is not interesting to an 18 to 45-year-old male, stop talking about it.

Speaker 1 Dudes rock. All right.

Speaker 1 And, you know, for the old rules, it's like, why would you talk about religion on your sports talk show? Why would you talk about politics on your sports show?

Speaker 1 Now, people could say, hey, this is more important. This is more important than sports.
Well, no, shit, all of this stuff is more important than sports. But you know what?

Speaker 1 Like, they don't talk about sex trafficking on MSNBC. Right.
Because that show's about money.

Speaker 1 Those shows are are about finances and all this other stuff. Is it as important as some of these horrible things that happen society? Of course, it isn't, but that's not what the job is.

Speaker 1 So that's where I think, like, again, this is sort of expanding to a much bigger deal. I'd love to talk about some of the stuff, but I know I can't win no matter what I do.

Speaker 1 And now I know I've been kind of placed in a box anyway. But you're right.

Speaker 1 Like, the important part, you know, we'll have things will happen in the world and people will be like, why didn't you talk about this on the show?

Speaker 1 And it's like, well, I think people come to the show to hear non-serious stuff because everything is more serious serious than sports.

Speaker 1 Yeah, if you tell me this is more, I would agree with you every time. All of these things are more important than sports, right? It's not,

Speaker 1 it's not really,

Speaker 1 I don't know. Look, everybody can do the job however they want to do it.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So Biden, what, B-plus?

Speaker 5 What are we saying?

Speaker 1 Just to wrap up. I did have a guy DM me the other day.

Speaker 4 He was like, how come you guys haven't addressed Hunter Biden's laptop?

Speaker 1 Well, okay.

Speaker 1 It sounds like that's all you want to hear anybody talk about all the time.

Speaker 4 And then you go check out their timeline and it's just a bunch of of retweets about Hunter Biden's laptop.

Speaker 4 I think you know way more than that.

Speaker 1 It would be like if I liked somebody how they, you know, they do their sports show or whatever, and then I found out about their politics, I don't know. Would I be like, oh my God.

Speaker 1 But people, you know, look, people get really, really passionate about it, which I completely understand.

Speaker 1 But I don't really know. I think I've kind of learned a little bit more the last couple of years.
Like, does that all happen? I'd be like, oh, I've got this segment in my head.

Speaker 1 I've got this 10 minutes and it'll be killer.

Speaker 1 I'm like, I just don't know if there's that many wins in this. Right.

Speaker 4 I feel like it's it's even, the scope has narrowed even further than if it's not interesting to an 18 to 45 year old male, don't talk about it.

Speaker 4 Now it's like, if it's not about NFL football, don't talk about it. Because it can be March, it can be April, it can be any month.

Speaker 4 And it's like, well, if you just power rank quarterbacks in a certain division, then that's going to do better ratings than anything else.

Speaker 1 Who won the draft for an entire month? Yeah.

Speaker 1 We'll get more clicks than NBA. And I know you love the NBA, and I love the NBA.
No, NFL drives. NFL drives everything we're doing.

Speaker 1 If you're not doing the NFL, you know, look, it was very clear, even at ESPN and even now, like, I probably, well, I'm not going to say probably, I'll just be, I like college football more than the NFL.

Speaker 1 I'm starting every Monday show with the NFL. Yeah.
It just, it doesn't, you know, the joke used to be, rather you do an average NFL segment on ESPN radio than a really great NBA one. Yeah.

Speaker 1 The NBA is kind of this weird thing where it lives in this.

Speaker 1 this awareness that's probably, I mean, the NBA Twitter thing is like perfect that exists on Twitter because in the moment it can feel like it's the most important thing that's happening.

Speaker 1 And you're like, yeah, but this isn't always a really good reflection of what actually happened. And then you see the top 50 most watched games.
Obviously, I don't really care 50.

Speaker 1 It was literally like game six of the NBA Finals was like 48. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay, that makes sense. Like, Monday Night Football Week 12 was a top 50 watch thing, just because that's what people do.

Speaker 1 I do think the way they're packaged, you know, plays into that a little bit more, too. You know, just the

Speaker 1 limited product, I guess would be the best way to go go ahead and talk about it.

Speaker 1 But yeah, I, I mean, I think some of the NBA stuff that's fun, because it's all soap opera-y, which is perfect for what we do.

Speaker 1 I don't know that the NFL has as much of that, but it just, it's never really seemed to matter.

Speaker 1 Like, you can look at all the numbers, you can look at all of it, and it's like, hey, you know, hammer it, hammer it, hammer it as much as you can do NFL.

Speaker 1 I'd probably rather talk about all the bullshit with college football because I just think it's a little bit more fun. It is.

Speaker 1 The rankings, like, as much as everybody freaks out about it, like, it's fun.

Speaker 1 I have fun trying to project, like, oh, what would happen if this or that, or how's the the committee going to feel, or wow, the committee hates this, or they like this.

Speaker 1 Like, that to me is a little bit more of the NBA soap operating thing. One of my favorite things to do, and it sucks because on Twitter now, if you like argue on Twitter, it's you're mad.

Speaker 1 But one of my, like, I look forward to it every year is just on Monday or Tuesday getting on Twitter and just firing off college football takes and letting people argue about it.

Speaker 1 And like going back and forth for 10 tweets with some dude about some, some team schedule because it's fun. I like doing it.
You're right.

Speaker 1 You like arguing with somebody you don't know about college football. It's one of my favorite things to do.
It's so much fun because it's like you'll never agree, but it's fun to do.

Speaker 5 I'm in. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm in the Wednesday. I'm going to undercut you.
Yeah, just fucking do it.

Speaker 1 Where are we at with Chris Paul? People want to know.

Speaker 1 Because, like, it's, you know, you had a, you, you, you had a summer to go away. I feel really good.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Armed with the latest information.
I feel really good. COVID.

Speaker 4 I didn't say it. What is what is that latest information?

Speaker 1 The whole team had COVID.

Speaker 4 Did he give the whole team COVID?

Speaker 1 Well, he's a great assist man. How many points do you think COVID is worth? Because they lost by 40.

Speaker 1 19? Yeah. COVID, 2020 COVID or 2022 COVID? Yeah, 2022 COVID.
How many? Yeah, not as many as 2020.

Speaker 4 Yeah, no, this COVID is not. I'd say like

Speaker 4 at the onset, it's worth 40 points.

Speaker 1 Could 2022 COVID play in 2020? It was different league.

Speaker 4 2020

Speaker 4 was playing against grandmothers and granddaughters.

Speaker 1 Assistant plumbers.

Speaker 1 I want to ask you something. Okay.
Would you rather be built built different or one-of-one?

Speaker 4 Oh, good question.

Speaker 1 Can I do a third option? Can I be him? Could you leave for a state with that? What about that dude? Yeah. I'd like to be him.

Speaker 5 I'd like to be him.

Speaker 1 Those are the four one seeds. That dude.
I feel like that dude and him are a little overlappy. I think we could come up with a fourth.
Built different, one-of-one,

Speaker 1 him.

Speaker 4 Or he have a dog in you.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's hot right now. It's hot now.
I don't think it's a long-term one seed. Flash in the pan? Because here's the thing.
Like, a lot of people throw around.

Speaker 1 Well, you can say GOAT is the fourth one. A lot of people throw around GOAT for everything.
No, that was actually a segment that did work on the radio show that Connell deserved more credit for.

Speaker 1 It was this week's, it was goat of the week, and so and everybody like

Speaker 1 you know, somebody tweeted goat at me on my birthday, and I was like, Yeah, take it easy. I'm doing all right.

Speaker 4 Well, that's that's also tricky because you could, if you talk to somebody that's older than, let's say, 45, when they hear goat, they think, oh, bad. That's like somebody that fucks something up.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's good. That's good.
Because when I think about

Speaker 1 one of one, that's getting thrown around a lot. Yeah, it is.
You're like, you know, you're 6'7. You're pretty good scorer.
Yeah. There's a bunch.
Like, the elephant man is one-on-one. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, there's a lot of one-on-ones.

Speaker 4 I think I'd rather be built different because that implies that God specifically set some time aside when he's working on me. He's like, okay, this is my passion right here.

Speaker 1 I'm going to make this guy. This is a schooner.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I'm going to make this guy exactly 5'8 and 1-8.

Speaker 1 But people like to throw around built different when they go to the gym at 5 a.m. That's built different.

Speaker 1 I think he is him or being him, is pretty strong right now.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, I think that's a really strong one seed. I just don't know that fourth one if I'm super passionate about any of our options so far.
But yeah, it's a really, it's smart, PFT.

Speaker 1 Really good observation because it's the goat has been watered down.

Speaker 4 The correct answer is Secretariat. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Best horse of all time. Top.

Speaker 1 Best athlete of all time. Hart was bigger than everyone else.
1999, Sports Sanitary. I went 36.

Speaker 4 The other day, I watched Secretariat's Triple Crown races.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 really? Yeah, I did.

Speaker 1 How was the rest of the day?

Speaker 4 It was electric. It was the best day of my life because that third race that he had, incredible.

Speaker 4 And then what you can actually do, though, with the Triple Crown is you can imagine what the other horses would have ran against him, like some of the other all-time greats.

Speaker 4 I think the closest second would have been like

Speaker 4 a full second and a half behind Secretary.

Speaker 1 It might have been American Farrow. American Pharaoh was insane.
It was a great horse.

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I saw American Pharaoh at Breeders when he beat everybody. This isn't a big jam.
I don't know. You were doing this? No, I did.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Tell me why.

Speaker 1 Secretary race is not Saratoga today, so I don't

Speaker 4 Secretary's overrated.

Speaker 1 Are you?

Speaker 1 This is fucked up. I don't know how I feel about it.
Okay. It's been 20 years.
That's okay. That's a good pass.
23 years.

Speaker 4 Good pass on Biden.

Speaker 4 We're waiting for all the facts to come out about Secretary.

Speaker 1 And by the way, Biden still has some time. Yeah,

Speaker 1 maybe.

Speaker 1 He's just rounded the first turn.

Speaker 1 They're a quarter in.

Speaker 4 Has anybody ever had the take like Secretary was definitely on steroids?

Speaker 1 No, they saw his heart. It was double the size of a regular horse.
But isn't that a side effect of?

Speaker 1 I don't know. Does steroid make your heart create? That was like the Lance Armstrong thing.
He had cancer. Would he take steroids? Would he an asshole?

Speaker 1 Kind of, maybe.

Speaker 1 All right, so you were in Europe. I went.

Speaker 1 You avoided the Chris Paul question very nicely. Like, are we going...
Let me refresh it. You brought it up again even better, though.

Speaker 1 Are you going hard back into Chris Paul this year, or are you going to keep your distance hoping things go different, even though they've never gone different for him?

Speaker 1 You know, it's tough. This was a tough one.
That game seven was so bad. I had such a bad time.

Speaker 1 And then I had to do a podcast, like, literally right after, and everybody listened to see how depressed I would be. It was awesome.
This was so bad. It was awesome.

Speaker 1 And I was like, you know, you're just sitting there. Like, what do you want me to say? Like, I'm an asshole now? Like, I guess so.

Speaker 1 So, you know, look, man, I really think Phoenix should have done a better job.

Speaker 1 My whole goal would have been, if I were the Phoenix Suns, to get him some kind of combo guard that, if you're not just to back up his minutes, but to like relieve some of the stress of whatever was going on.

Speaker 1 Defense, yeah.

Speaker 1 And they didn't do that, of course. They couldn't sign a big guy two years ago.
Sarver's a terrible, terrible owner.

Speaker 1 And, you know, they went through this whole DeAndre Ayton thing to be like, hey, you want to just fuck with this guy and then match, save a mill or two later. Right.
Like, that was so pointless

Speaker 1 because they were like, oh, you don't think you're going to, you know, whatever. They shaved a year off.

Speaker 1 So I actually think they, and it's all related to Sarver, it's not James Jones. So unfortunately, I don't think, you know, I think they should have tried to figure out a roster-wise to

Speaker 1 help him, and I really don't feel like they did. Okay.
So I'm a little worried about it, and I think the words are going to be even better. Ooh,

Speaker 1 I like that.

Speaker 4 What about Kevin Durant? Is that still in the picture for the Suns?

Speaker 1 I got to tell you,

Speaker 1 I love him, but he's making it tough to love him.

Speaker 1 I've gone the entire, I used to be baby back bitch Durant, then I completely flipped when it's like, no, this guy's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 like he responds to people on twitter he is kind of unapologetically him

Speaker 1 and this last one is tough it's tough to sign a four-year deal and then be like fire everyone that i hired it's tough yeah those guys didn't want atkinson around because they didn't want to be coached so then they decide hey let's bring in steve nash so he'll just have the perfect demeanor perfect personality he's not going to push these guys and now um they don't want him and then it's like so wait sean marks is the guy when you you basically were like hey sign deandre DeAndre Jordan, who shouldn't even have gotten the contract, but he got the buddy deal.

Speaker 1 And so you're getting everything you want, and then you still want everybody fired.

Speaker 1 Here's how it's summed up.

Speaker 1 Just play in the fucking basketball games, and maybe things will work out.

Speaker 1 Yes. Okay,

Speaker 1 this Net story, I've had it. Like, Kyrie, people finally found out what happened here.
They were still going to give him the max. Yeah.
And they just wanted a games played stipulation.

Speaker 1 He's like, no, man, can't control you can't you know can't control me but like do you mind playing right is there any way if we give you this four-year extension you just we're gonna play in more games and so i have no sympathy for any of those guys whenever i see anybody on tv being like well you know they could have done a better job with their bi-level exception and i'm like stop fucking talking it's about one thing the guys don't play in enough games and if they did you're right this team would actually be pretty good really good stephen a smith had the all-time take of like when russia invaded ukraine i didn't know if kyrie irving was going to go play basketball that day because it might have just been too much for him to deal with at the time i'll tell you what stephen a on the kyrie stuff has been really interesting

Speaker 4 it's it's really his magnum opus how do you feel about stephen a smith taking off the entire month of august with a shoulder injury he's back this week

Speaker 4 If there was time to take time off,

Speaker 1 you can't take time off at ESPN during the fall. We just covered college football.

Speaker 1 And even for me, too, like right after college and Super Bowl, it would be like right into NBA trade deadline, right into March Madness, right into the NBA playoffs, right into draft, right into free agency.

Speaker 1 The six weeks that you get to take off when you're on air are the last couple weeks of July and as much of August as you can. So,

Speaker 1 you know, the guy works, you know, for any shit that people want to give Stephen A, because, you know, you're just out there in the pop, you know, spotlight long enough.

Speaker 1 I would not give him a shit because that guy says yes to everything. Yeah.
He works his ass off.

Speaker 1 He is him. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So I don't, I mean, I'm not going to, I'm not going to get on his case for taking taking off the time when ESPN is like, go reset, take this time off, be ready to go week one NFL, and then that's a straight run until the NBA Finals.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I mean, that's again another perfect example of like, I was asking you a question that was like kind of a joke, and you're like, well, I'll actually give you a great detailed response of why it is appropriate to be a test.

Speaker 1 I'm taking this really seriously today.

Speaker 1 I appreciate that.

Speaker 1 I was at a rooftop party, and I was like, I can't drink. I'm going on PMT.
PMT, yeah, let's do it.

Speaker 4 You got any World Cup takes?

Speaker 1 Commentator, yeah. Which sport?

Speaker 4 Oh, good question.

Speaker 4 Football.

Speaker 1 Soccer.

Speaker 1 I don't. I don't.
I tell you, though, I like Italy this year. I like soccer, but I don't care about it.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I think that's where I'm at. I used to hate it.

Speaker 4 Oh, I care about the World Cup. That's the only thing I do care about.

Speaker 1 You're going to pick a team? Are you a root for you? Italy.

Speaker 4 I think this is Italy's year.

Speaker 5 Are you Italian at all?

Speaker 1 What about America?

Speaker 4 I'm like 1% Italian.

Speaker 4 No, I think Italy's just too good. Like, they've got Chiesa.
They've got...

Speaker 4 It's all setting up to be Italy's year.

Speaker 1 He sounds good. I'm rooting for America.
Yeah, yeah, I think I will too.

Speaker 5 They're my second team behind behind Italy.

Speaker 1 I'm gonna root for Iceland. Are they in it? Nope.
I don't think so. Soccer's the sport for

Speaker 1 research on that? Yeah, Jason research.

Speaker 1 I've always said soccer is great because it's sometimes you wake up on a Saturday or Sunday morning before like real sports start and you just want to see a ball move around on grass.

Speaker 1 Like when you're hungover on a Saturday, just put it, it's nice.

Speaker 4 It's a nice aesthetic.

Speaker 1 Ooh, that group H. Group of death, yeah.

Speaker 1 I don't see Iceland. No, I don't think so.

Speaker 1 I got to tell you, you want to talk about overestimating someone's interest in your European travels?

Speaker 1 The Chris Long Big Cat text thread.

Speaker 1 Oh, really? Well, no, I mean, I was out too.

Speaker 1 I said you guys

Speaker 1 from the Fjor.

Speaker 4 Oh, you did go to Iceland. I did.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I just got back from France. I went to Iceland.
I'm still kind of in that ESPN mode. I listened to the podcast.
It was fantastic.

Speaker 1 Brian did on his show a full detail of his Iceland Iceland travels, and it was, I've never heard a podcast like that, and it was fucking hilarious.

Speaker 1 Thank you. Yeah,

Speaker 1 that was a sincere compliment.

Speaker 4 What did you think of the Blue Lagoon?

Speaker 1 Made it the last day. All right, I got to tell you, it's a great question.

Speaker 1 Great question.

Speaker 4 This is another question I was expecting a serious answer to.

Speaker 1 So the thing about the Blue Lagoon, it's got the middle blue. It's got the middle apple in the clay, right?

Speaker 4 You smeared on yourself?

Speaker 1 Did a whole breakdown of it. Because

Speaker 1 I saw the pictures and I'm like, what is this

Speaker 1 and it was like the last day i ended up as you listen to the podcast i couldn't find a hotel room on the southeastern side by the glacier so i had to drive another five hours that day and i was like fucking i'm just gonna go back to reykjavik and then i had like one day of not driving and it was like the best i was like okay this is cool like i'm not driving just hanging out the city's pretty small and so um the last real day i go you know what i'm gonna do i'm gonna head towards the lagoon and then i can come back into town whatever none of that was relevant probably could cut it all up

Speaker 1 So you see this blue water, and it's like in these black lava rocks. And you're like, is this really like this sick? Is it going to be this cool?

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 it's this runoff from this geothermal plant. So then you're like, wait, is that? And I'm like, I guess it is cool.
Like, I would imagine at this point, they would have realized it if it wasn't safe.

Speaker 1 And it apparently is. And so then I look on the website for how to book it, and it's like sold out for two months straight.
Like

Speaker 1 no chance. I'm I'm like, okay, but one of one.

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 1 That's the great thing about traveling by yourself. It does get a little lonely.
But

Speaker 1 you can usually just show up to a lot of places and go, hey, it's just me. Although, in France, and I would put one other European country in the, they're almost so offended you're by yourself.

Speaker 1 You're like, wait, you waited to come to this really fancy restaurant? You're going to fucking sit here by yourself. Like, don't give him ice.
When he wants his check, never give it to him.

Speaker 1 You're really mad about this iceberg.

Speaker 1 Right. No, because there was a place, there was a place in Nice, like the last night I went to dinner.
I looked up this Italian place, and I was like, oh, this is the best Italian place in Nice.

Speaker 1 I'll go. And the guy brought me like large croutons instead of bread.
I was like, are you guys serious with this?

Speaker 1 Is this normally how the bread is handed out to people? And I like broke it apart like a piece of fucking Egyptian lore.

Speaker 1 And the guy was like watching me break.

Speaker 1 He was like, oh, that's stale. I'm like,

Speaker 1 and then he was like, how was the meal? I go, pizza was phenomenal. I go, the meatballs are frozen.
Aren't they? And he was like, yes. I went, okay.
Well, you have your answer. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's about how I felt the second part of it. All right, back to the Blue Lagoon.
Yes, sir.

Speaker 1 The question was, is this your handwriting?

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 I walk in and it's packed. And I was like, I'm not getting in here.
Walked up. There was a $75 package, a $125 package, and a $500 package.
And there was no one in line for the $500 package one.

Speaker 1 And I go up and I was like, can I just get one? She's like, you're by yourself. I was was like, Yeah.
She's like, It's like a heated bath. You're just going to walk around by yourself.

Speaker 4 It's a couple's massage.

Speaker 1 And I was like, You know my hot tub rule: if there's kids in the hot tub, you don't go in. Right.
Yeah. Yeah.
Get awesome. Old people and kids.
If they're already in there, I don't get in the hot tub.

Speaker 1 I was like, no, I think it's just going to be me. She's like, okay, well, you have to shower first.
I'm like, yeah, like, I love showering. We're good.
Like, I think she was a little thrown off.

Speaker 1 Like, what's this guy's deal? So the credit card went through, so we were concerned. She just let me go through, roll in.
And as I'm watching everybody, I'm like, is this a huge scam?

Speaker 1 It's just this big hot tub that we're all kind of in. But I guess that silica or whatever it is, you start wiping it on you.

Speaker 1 I took a shower later that day after workout, no big deal, sort of a high ripped day. And after I showered, I still had that shit all over my body.
Like I could just sort of feel it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So, yeah, it's pretty cool. And then you're like different spots, it gets hotter.
You're like, wow, it's just randomly hotter in this area because of nature. Huh.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And I went off to the side, sat by myself, and a lot of people looked at me like, stay away from that.

Speaker 4 What did you rate it on Google? Did you give it like, I love those when

Speaker 4 people like rate the Grand Canyon on Google, they give it two stars. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's not that grand. Line was kind of busy.
Oh, you went July 4th?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Like I looked up Santa Pey and it said something like,

Speaker 1 unfortunately, not as many affordable food options. Like you went to Santa Pey.
Yeah. Like you realize where you went, right?

Speaker 1 Maybe the most expensive place you could go in Europe and you're mad that there weren't more like burrito specials. Like what the fuck? Like that's that's the U problem.

Speaker 1 yeah, I gave it, I think I rated it pretty high. And I said, go to the premiere line and then just say you don't want that one.

Speaker 1 And then you cut everybody, which I don't really like line cutting, but in that time, I think it was justified. Yeah, yeah.
One of them.

Speaker 1 All right, let's do before we do the Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 4 I have one last question.

Speaker 1 I have one for you guys, though.

Speaker 1 Give it up for Chicago.

Speaker 12 Sebastian Menescalco's new stand-up special, It Ain't Right, is coming to Hulu on November 21st.

Speaker 1 30 years ago, Jeff Bezos, complete nerd. Bezos now now ripped to shreds on his super yacht and the boxes keep coming.

Speaker 1 Terms apply.

Speaker 1 Give us your hottest NFL take before the season starts. Team, player, whatever you want.
What are you thinking? Oh, man, I was not prepared for this.

Speaker 1 You got something you're thinking about.

Speaker 1 Simeon replaces Fields. Oh,

Speaker 4 that's hot.

Speaker 1 You didn't want to go with Nathan Peterman?

Speaker 1 No, I just wanted to do it. I got Peterman on that.
I'm just trying to fuck with Dick.

Speaker 4 The story's not done with Nathan Peterman. Yeah, I'm telling you.

Speaker 1 That guy, I actually wouldn't mind him just putting together a couple. He became like the absolute, like, this guy's got a job.
You know, if I was. I accept one half.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like, we're all about mental health awareness, except for Nathan Peterman just shit on him yeah it's true

Speaker 1 very true like hey you know here's my Instagram page it's about yoga and mental awareness and but fuck Nathan Peterman

Speaker 1 you so I have a question for you guys yeah all right so as I'm walking around southern coast

Speaker 1 And I'm looking at everybody and I go, obesity doesn't seem to be an issue here. And Nice is a melting pot.
You look at it historically, I know PFD. He knows this.
He's very Italian influence.

Speaker 1 San Ramos. Yep.
It's for italy right down the street barcelona six hours away billy knows and so

Speaker 1 every day was like barrata

Speaker 1 ham projute whatever you want to call it baguette every every day

Speaker 1 out of yeah just out of the woodwork and the bread really is that good like you just get so good you can just get a piece of bread walk around all day it's a bad so good i randomly got stuck at this lake because i couldn't find an uber out of there and some guy saw me walking like up a cliff with my luggage and he pulled over and was like Do you want to ride?

Speaker 1 And I just was like, Yeah, sure, I guess so. But he wasn't going that far.
But I looked down, and in the storage of his back seat was just a loaf of bread. Fuck yes, just instant sauce.

Speaker 1 So, all right, pizza fries. I don't like the way the French do the French fry thing, though, at all.

Speaker 1 They just like, it's almost like rice, like sushi rice, it's just a round, and then they give it to you. Yeah, no, we cook them, yeah,

Speaker 1 and I'm looking at everybody vaping. There's babies sitting at these tables, just cigarette smoke right in their face.

Speaker 1 I can't imagine, I don't know what the vaping stuff is, I don't know the science behind it. Drinking, you're like, what's the life expectancy, the U.S.
compared to France?

Speaker 4 Okay, so U.S. is, what, like 77, 79?

Speaker 1 The one I found. Oh, oh, age.
Yeah, very good. Very good.

Speaker 1 It's like 79 to 82 for male-female brain. I think I have an answer for this, too, by the way.
Where do you think the United States ranks

Speaker 1 among the 190 countries that I have in front of me on life expectancy in the world.

Speaker 4 I'm going to guess 19.

Speaker 1 I was going to say, like, more in the 40s.

Speaker 1 49. Wow.
I was almost said 50s. Now, would have been closer.

Speaker 1 There's obesity issues. There's also lack of universal health care.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 OJ lives here.

Speaker 1 Yep. Yep.

Speaker 1 A lot of factors. But France is like top 20.
And then I landed on this theory, which I don't even know if it's right or not, but this is just what this podcast is about exploring.

Speaker 5 We still have our pants on.

Speaker 1 Right. It's been good so far.
Oh, Ryan wearing pants on.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I can see.

Speaker 1 Ryan's favorite thing to do is just to show all of his balls to our audience. I didn't mean to this time, but

Speaker 1 I thought you were doing it as a bit. I thought you were like, okay, I'm going to wear a smaller pair of shorts than I did last time.
No, my legs got bigger since the last time.

Speaker 1 So the shorts are actually bigger, but so are my legs. So Billy noticed.

Speaker 1 It might just be that the food, even though you'd be like, you guys are just eating pizza and cheese and ham and everything over and over and over again, because every fucking restaurant in the menu is almost the same.

Speaker 1 But because it's non-processed? Is that what's going on? Because

Speaker 1 the cigarette thing over there is out of control. America doesn't get enough credit for how much they've moved off of the cigarette.
Right. I have one theory as well.

Speaker 1 I think vacation.

Speaker 1 They all take the fucking summer off.

Speaker 1 They don't work. It's like Hollywood.
Constantly. Like the fact that you're...
Fuck your script made in July. Forget about it.
Everyone takes all of July.

Speaker 1 Has that been the problem for you?

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's it. I think whatever it is.
I was teeing you up there. I'm like, how have you not made fun of me yet on this one?

Speaker 1 But I really do think that the fact that the entire country takes two months off every year and it's like mandated,

Speaker 1 Hank's probably going to outlive us because he takes vacation all of it.

Speaker 4 He's probably going to move to Europe. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm screwed.

Speaker 4 I think whatever it is, yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, we are still was putting out content while I was on vacation. Yeah.

Speaker 4 You know how like

Speaker 4 the grapes over there are better. The pigs are healthier.
Everything's healthier.

Speaker 1 I think it's less processed food.

Speaker 1 I think you're right.

Speaker 4 I think it's it's the same effects that are happening to the agriculture where you can get incredible grapes that make incredible wine.

Speaker 4 There's some of that that's also going into humans as they're over there. The environmental factors.
Billy's got an idea. I'm sure this will be.

Speaker 1 Wait, do they snack, though? Do they snack?

Speaker 1 Yes, they snatched them. They don't snack.

Speaker 1 I think they just eat their meals.

Speaker 4 Healthier snacks, though.

Speaker 1 I think they just eat. The other thing I thought about when they never bring you a check, because they don't, I'm surprised I'm not still there waiting at this one place.

Speaker 1 It may be because they're like, what's the rush? Right. Yeah, they know they're relaxed.
Just chill out, man. Why do you have to be so intense about everything?

Speaker 1 You finished your meal and now, like, you know, sit down.

Speaker 4 Honestly, I think it's because our TV over here is so much better. Yeah, that's it.
It makes us want to spend more time on the couch watching TV. Makes us want to leave restaurants quicker.

Speaker 4 We don't allow time to digest properly because we're like, oh, we got to go home because there's this great show on that's about a cool state in the United States.

Speaker 1 It's streaming that you can watch literally instantly.

Speaker 4 And in France, it's like, oh, yeah, you know what? Let's stay another 45 minutes after dinner because the best shows that I can watch on TV are all about like New York City.

Speaker 1 So I don't really care about that much.

Speaker 1 Billy, you want to? Go ahead, Billy. Sorry.

Speaker 4 I know that the pesticides, there's a lot more illegal pesticides in Europe, and especially in the cigarettes, there's much more pesticides on American tobacco than European tobacco.

Speaker 4 That's why there's not as high rates of lung cancer.

Speaker 1 People are just firing darts and vaping. And I'm talking like

Speaker 1 with kids. I saw an 11-year-old kid in Aix-en-Provence.
He's the coolest fucking kid I saw all week. He was like 11, Hawaiian shirt, fucking dart out of the side of his mouth.
That's awesome.

Speaker 1 And he walked up to like two 13-year-olds and was like, who wants to fucking party? And walk around with me.

Speaker 1 And I was like, I hope that kid asked me to hang out. Yes.
He's unbelievable. And I couldn't help, but like, you're like, I wish I had smoked at 11 because look how awesome he looks.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you see a kid that's 11 and he's like gesturing confidently with his cigarette. That's what he was doing.

Speaker 1 He was like John Draper, but 11. Now, if he had asked to hang out, though, would the 11-year-olds that you have live in your house? Would that have been weird for them?

Speaker 1 When I had the 14-year-olds live in my house,

Speaker 1 the cool thing was when the 14, when the dad was there, he was like, hey, I'm going to go drink with some of the hockey players. And I was like, well, I'm going to hang out with the 14-year-olds.

Speaker 1 And he was like, what?

Speaker 1 I go, well, I feel like I kind of got to hang out with them if you have to go, you know, meet up. Pro-athlete.
I got a bunch of friends at pro-ath. That's not a big deal.
But,

Speaker 1 yeah, I don't know. Those guys, those guys moved on for me quick, though.
When they turned 15, I like checking. I like DM one of them.
Like, hey, what's up, buddy?

Speaker 1 And it's like, fucking, the weeks go by.

Speaker 4 When you were in France, did you get made real easily by the waiters and waitresses? Would they come over and bring you if they're like, oh, this is the American guy? Yeah.

Speaker 1 I thought, like, there was one place I went to in Greece that was really nice. It was on the water.
I sat by myself, and they were like,

Speaker 1 What a loser. Like, just fuck this guy.
He's sitting there. They didn't even light the candle at the table.
Like, I couldn't read. It was like dark.
And I had to turn my phone on to read.

Speaker 1 Maybe it was, well, no, I was younger then, so it wasn't an age thing.

Speaker 1 I just think that the service is terrible. The service is terrible.
Like, I think after, what, 20-plus meals, like, I think I have a good read on it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I think the research would tell you it's the service is not what it is here.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 4 The most insulting thing that happened to me when I was in France was I sat down at a table for breakfast. It's like this outdoor cafe.

Speaker 1 But you were standing?

Speaker 4 No, I sit down.

Speaker 1 That was mean. That's mean.
Yeah, but you meant it was an insulting thing that happened. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Yeah, no, I'm five foot eight, Ryan.

Speaker 1 Got a problem with that?

Speaker 4 I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 If I could have willed my body grow higher, I would have. You're not.

Speaker 1 Unfortunately, I'm not.

Speaker 4 So I have to love myself and my body just the way that I am.

Speaker 5 Built same.

Speaker 1 Built same. Built average.

Speaker 4 So I sit down, and the waiter comes over, immediately confiscates the French menu, hands me an English menu, and this is the worst part. They take the cigarette ashtray off the table.

Speaker 4 It's like, oh, this guy's American. He can't speak French, and he's not going to smoke, obviously.

Speaker 4 So I got up and I went next door and I bought a pack of cigarettes just to bring it back and start chain smoking. I'm like, bring that fucking ashtray back.
I'm going to smoke.

Speaker 4 I'm going to smoke in your restaurant.

Speaker 1 I like that. Yeah.
I like that out of you.

Speaker 4 I was very insulted by it. Yeah.
Almost as insulted as I was a second ago. You brought up my height.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 That was mean. That's what I thought we were doing.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 No. No, we're not doing who's the jersey.

Speaker 4 My friend is 5'8.

Speaker 1 Are you really talking?

Speaker 1 It would be.

Speaker 1 Are you really five foot eight? That would be the who's the jerk. Yeah.
I feel bad. Trent Richardson, Jersey.
Yeah. Yeah.
He's going to Hall of Famer. Yeah.
He's gold jacket.

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 10 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. It'll make a nice holiday tradition.

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

Speaker 10 Enjoy all the more holiday traditions only at Cracker Barrel.

Speaker 4 Now, here's more Ryan Rasillo.

Speaker 1 All right, let's do the Mount Rushmore. All right, I'm taking my sweatshirt off.
All right, I'm done. So he's going to have a touch on the YouTube.

Speaker 1 You're going to get to see even more.

Speaker 1 Oh, Ryan. He's got something on underneath it.
I don't.

Speaker 4 Oh, some gnarly pit stains.

Speaker 1 Yeah. No, I'm pitting out bad.

Speaker 1 Okay. We're going to do the Mount Rushmore of

Speaker 1 mundane everyday tasks that should be Olympic sports. We have four teams.
Ryan, you're with yourself. That's kind of your thing.
Yep. Billy and Jake.

Speaker 1 We got the team producers, Batgirl and Memes, then PFT and I.

Speaker 1 Ryan, why don't you decide the order? So we're going four deep, snake draft. Okay.

Speaker 1 Mount Rushmore of everyday activities that should be Olympic sports. PFT first because I feel bad.
That's me and PFT. Oh.
Trying to break it. You guys can't do it on their own.

Speaker 1 Well, only some people can host solo. One of many.
That's me.

Speaker 1 All right. You guys can go first.
Thank you. Billy goes second.

Speaker 1 And then Jake?

Speaker 1 No, Jake and Billy are together. Okay.
Oh, it's just three. It's four.
It's four? Yeah, the producers. Can I do a worse job with this? Or do you want to try it again and see if I can do it even worse?

Speaker 1 All right. I'll go last.
So

Speaker 1 we'll go around the room. Billy, yeah, we'll go around the room.
Yeah, okay, all right, perfect. All right.
93 fish.

Speaker 1 All right. This is big, PFT.
This is a big first one.

Speaker 1 I think the first one that I sent.

Speaker 4 The first one is good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Okay.

Speaker 5 Parallel parking should be an Olympic sport.

Speaker 1 Either you're good or you're bad. Like when you're really good, and I don't like the, it is kind of a Mickey mouse thing now with all the cameras i never even use that stuff i never

Speaker 1 explain it when you're buying a new car and you're like and if you hit this button i'm like yeah no no no no old school parallel parking when you get it in one shot best feeling in the world especially when like if you're in a big city city it's like documenting audio people watching and then cars behind you If you showed me parallel parking in the Olympics, I would watch it and it would be so entertaining.

Speaker 1 So entertaining. The only thing it would be,

Speaker 1 I think it would be more entertaining to watch. It would be like American Idol.
Like, I think I'd rather see somebody

Speaker 1 who has no chance. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 Yeah, just take some guy off the street, give him a manual transmission, too. Yeah.
Just watch chaos ensue.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Manual transmission.
Yeah, that'd be tough. That'd be tough.
You guys even know what that is anymore? No.

Speaker 1 Remember to license to drive? You ever see that?

Speaker 4 What's that?

Speaker 1 It's a good movie. Check it out.
Corey.

Speaker 1 What year was it? 1950? Yeah, 51, maybe. Yeah.
All right. Billy and Jake, you guys are up.

Speaker 1 all right here we go uh we're gonna go with carrying groceries yep that's that was on our list that's a good one it's uh it's an impossible thing that you always think that you can just like i got it i got it and you always drop something but man that's fun and then you get up to the door and you're like wait i i actually can't open the door now yeah so you have to put it down anyways i like when the circulation gets cut off and the poor arm yes you know and like that plastic cvs bag is just like cutting into you i also like when you have so many groceries then you have like the paper towels or the toilet paper and you and you and you put poke your finger in the plastic wrapping so then you just have the toilet paper by one single finger yes it's just yeah you're just like this with everything else that's good that's a great time got that really good one good pick all right back girl

Speaker 1 we're gonna go with holding in a shit when you don't have access to an easy bathroom just not not using the bathroom Texas poop holding them soiling yourself Texas poop holding them.

Speaker 1 I just really want to see Texas poop hold them is what it is.

Speaker 1 Yeah, okay. That's, I mean, they are, that's a very tough thing to do.

Speaker 1 Especially when you when you gamble. There's nothing worse than when you gamble on like,

Speaker 1 I got to go out for like an hour and you're like, I think I'm good. And then like 10 minutes into being out, you're like, oh, I'm not good.

Speaker 4 I did that today on the train. I got on New Jersey Transit, which we know they're incompetent, thanks to Frank the Tank.
And I drank a giant thing of water before I got on.

Speaker 4 And then I forgot that they don't have bathrooms on that train. And so I'm just signing my own death warrant.
It's like, okay, an hour and a half on this train. You better hold on.

Speaker 1 That's an initiation some places to get in. Just hang on to it.
Exactly that. Yeah.
It's bad.

Speaker 4 It's bad.

Speaker 1 Okay, Ryan, you're up. You have two picks.
I know.

Speaker 1 Everyday thing.

Speaker 1 I love

Speaker 7 my ability.

Speaker 1 to be able to throw a towel into a bin. Ooh, yeah.
Okay. And especially like when there's a little moisture on it.
Yep. And you have the weight, right? And I have a little routine at the Equinox.

Speaker 1 Oh, you go to the gym? I do. And

Speaker 1 I'll, like, I'm getting out to like almost 20 yards. Like, it's aggressive what I'm trying to pull off.
And it's a slot, too, right?

Speaker 1 But it's, it's, like, flat. So you have to kind of go in.
It's not, like, straight at you. It's on top of it.
It's playing back.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. But I will.

Speaker 1 I'm like out there. These are like routes.
And I have it. And when I hit it, I like like look around to be like, did anyone see me do that? Do you yell anything? You're like, Kobe or anything?

Speaker 1 I've had a couple where I was like, holy shit, man, that was good. And then you're like, you're the biggest loser ever because you just said that out loud.
But you, I really love that.

Speaker 1 I'd like to see other people just randomly, like, when I get a chance to throw something into something, I'm like, I love this. And I watch it.

Speaker 4 I'm automatic on socks into the laundry bed.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Like in my apartment.

Speaker 4 The towel thing is tricky because in the gym, you might have like a bathroom attendant that's walking around the corner and you're shooting from like 20 yards yards away, and you just hit him with a towel.

Speaker 1 And it's got to be, it's got to be gym towels because gym towels are always a little thinner, you know,

Speaker 1 because you can't do the big ones that you have at home. The AC's blowing, who knows, you know, it gets caught up in some sort of elements, yeah.

Speaker 4 But I like that's a good pick.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I've just noticed that I'm like, you keep trying to see where this is going to go. All right, uh,

Speaker 1 I'm trying to think which ones I think you guys will take

Speaker 1 versus which ones I think are available. All right, I'll just go with it.
Uh, stopping the gas pump

Speaker 1 on a dollar. We had that.
We had it.

Speaker 1 I love it. I'll start going 97 to zoom 97 to zoom.
And then it's like, boom, right off. When I'm locked in, I feel great.

Speaker 4 Yeah, some people will say, well, you don't need to do that anymore because it's not the 90s.

Speaker 4 But to them, I say, I still do that at a gas pump just because it's cool to see it stop on that perfect dollar.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. In Iceland, you have to tell them ahead of time how much you want to pump.
Really? Yeah, I mean, it's a pain in the ass. But a lot of people don't know that.

Speaker 1 It's not as many people travel.

Speaker 1 Okay,

Speaker 4 is it harder to do that now that, you know, a gas price with Joe Biden or just like through the roof?

Speaker 1 There's a lot of factors, PFT.

Speaker 1 Name two of them. It's not just our leadership.

Speaker 1 All right, Batgirl, you guys are up. Good picks.

Speaker 13 We're going to go with timing commercials.

Speaker 1 That was also on our list. Yep.
We had that one, too.

Speaker 4 That's a great one.

Speaker 1 I have three TVs, so I don't have to deal with that anymore, but I still think I could. I like when people are like, oh, you're watching the Blue Jays and you're not watching the Titans.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I treat them a picture. When people say that,

Speaker 1 yeah, everybody on the content side should just start being like, do you guys seriously think we have one fucking TV in our room?

Speaker 1 People always be like, you're watching playoff hockey instead of playoff basketball? And I treat them a picture of all three games on. I'm like, what are you going to do now, dude? Yeah, suck it.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It's a nice flex.

Speaker 4 It's the best if it's NFL Sunday and you've got Fox on one, or you've got Fox on your TV, and you also check back on the CBS game, and you hit it right as they're snapping the ball on first down. Yep.

Speaker 4 It's such a good feeling. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay, good pick.

Speaker 5 Billy and Jake.

Speaker 4 We're going to go with pissing, aiming, and distance.

Speaker 1 Oh, hmm. Okay.
Piss Olympics would be very fun to watch.

Speaker 4 Shit. Who can piss the farthest?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Who's got the best accuracy?

Speaker 4 Yeah, McConaughey was saying in his book that his dad and him used to have contests not for distance, but for height. They would see who could pee up the highest on the wall.

Speaker 4 I think he said that his dad could pee up like eight feet.

Speaker 1 That's eight feet? That's crazy. That's not that crazy.

Speaker 5 That's crazy. It isn't? Billy.

Speaker 4 I think I can make my piss.

Speaker 1 Go outside and piss in the hallway. Trap it.
Let's do it. Yeah,

Speaker 1 we're going to do it. Go do it, right?

Speaker 1 I think you could piss in the hallway at this office and no one would notice. Go see.
No, well, I got to piss for it.

Speaker 4 I got to have to pee first.

Speaker 1 Okay, so drink some water. Okay.
All right. I think it's going to hit the ceiling.

Speaker 4 I think I could hit the ceiling. I don't think I could.

Speaker 1 Pissing on the ceiling. Cover?

Speaker 1 Without a whip, though. You can't whip.

Speaker 1 You can't whip.

Speaker 4 Yeah, that we're talking about.

Speaker 1 Yeah, because a whip isn't. I could piss on the ceiling with a whip.

Speaker 4 We're talking prostate only. Yeah, yeah.
You're just

Speaker 1 powering. Raw power.
Yeah, maybe, you know what? Maybe now that I think about this, maybe eight feet isn't that impressive. Not laying down.
It sounds impressive.

Speaker 1 I kind of want to see you try to power it. I definitely don't think they were laying down.
Now I got to see Billy lying down.

Speaker 1 Straight up into the ball.

Speaker 1 I don't.

Speaker 1 Straight, just power. Standing.
Standing power. That's right.
Yeah. And then we got to see it now.

Speaker 4 Fuck. I'll do it in the bathroom.

Speaker 1 Okay, great. Just mark it on the wall.
Do it in the corner. Yeah, that's perfect.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 You can do whatever you want.

Speaker 4 It's a good experiment.

Speaker 1 I like this. Drink up.

Speaker 4 I want to see who can piss the farthest.

Speaker 1 Yeah, this is the Olympics.

Speaker 1 Okay, good pick. 50, where do we want to go?

Speaker 4 Yeah, this is a tough one because they took two of ours.

Speaker 8 Yeah.

Speaker 4 I like the

Speaker 4 second to last thing that I sent you in that big block.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I like that one.
Yeah, and I like the one above it too. So why don't you go with the second to last one and I'll go with the one or the one too above it.

Speaker 8 Okay. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Hitting every light in a row.

Speaker 4 Seeing how many many you can get.

Speaker 1 The best. It's awesome.
Riding the wave. When you really know an area too, and you're like, if I get this one, that means

Speaker 1 you can sometimes go like the entirety of Manhattan in like 10 minutes. If you hit, because we, when we're...
I've never had a moment like that.

Speaker 1 When we hit, when we work late here on Sunday nights and we like go home at like two o'clock, I've rode the wave a couple times and it is such a throw.

Speaker 1 You just hit one and you're like, I'm good for the whole way home.

Speaker 4 There's this road in DC, Constitution Avenue.

Speaker 4 And if you hit it perfectly, if you get to that first light just as it's turning green, so you see it turn from red to green, you know that you can drive all the way from the bridge past Congress, no stops whatsoever.

Speaker 4 And then you get towards the end, and by the end, you're running, like kind of running a red light or two. You're barely making the end of that yellow.

Speaker 1 Congress is never doing anything.

Speaker 4 Yeah, Congress won't do shit about it.

Speaker 4 But it's exhilarating. It's such a good feeling because you know that you're about to have the best drive ever.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I just get excited thinking about it. It's

Speaker 1 all right. Our next pick is going to be.
Now, this one, I actually think like you could actually really have a great competition.

Speaker 1 You have everyone is laying there sleeping, and it's who can wake up before the alarm, closest to the alarm. Because, god damn, does that happen every fucking day?

Speaker 1 And everyone thinks, like, I'm the best at always waking up a minute before my alarm and having people try to wake up as close to their alarm as possible. Billy, this probably doesn't count for you.

Speaker 1 Before their alarm hits.

Speaker 1 What a thrill that would be.

Speaker 1 What is that? How come we haven't unlocked what that brain power is? It's crazy. When you go, hey, I'm going to set my alarm and then I'm going to wake up.

Speaker 1 And I can't believe how often I wake up right before the alarm. Every day? Why are we not untapping what that ability is and applying that to more things? It's just your Olympics.

Speaker 1 Why aren't we seeing who's the best?

Speaker 4 I was talking to a security guard one time. This story blows my mind that that.

Speaker 1 This dude brag.

Speaker 4 No, that this dude is, he is built different. He was telling me he wakes up every morning at 4 a.m.
He has never used an alarm. He wakes up at 4 o'clock in the morning every single day.

Speaker 4 He doesn't obviously have a snooze button, but he says sometimes if I'm feeling tired, I'll wake up at 4 and then I'll close my eyes and I'll count to 60 seven times in a row and then I'll open my eyes again.

Speaker 4 That's my snooze button. Fucking maniac.

Speaker 1 Did you have a macro dosing? What the fuck are you doing? No, no,

Speaker 4 he's a psychopath.

Speaker 1 That's crazy. Yeah.
I had one moment. That I still don't really explain other than my content brain just overpowers my life.
I was in France.

Speaker 1 It was whatever it was, 2018, 2019, when LeBron signed with the Lakers. So it's like three or four in the morning.
I woke up out of a deep, deep sleep, out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 Just woke up, looked at my phone, stared at my phone. 20 seconds later, the Woge alert happens.
LeBron signs with the Lakers. I still don't know how that happened.

Speaker 1 And I spent the next three hours just tweeting

Speaker 1 in the middle of the night from France. And I was like, what's going on with my brain? It was crazy.

Speaker 1 I watched it, like, I watched the alert go on my phone. That's weird.
It was weird. It was very, very eerie.
I mean, obviously, we knew he was going to sign somewhere that week, but still, it was fun.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, that's not what you're saying. Yeah, it made me realize, like, maybe I should take it.
I'm not brain about everybody knew he was going to the Lakers. Yeah.
Yeah. It was fucked up.

Speaker 1 No, I've been having a lot of this stuff. Like, there was this guitar player.
That I just recently started teaching myself how to play guitar. Really? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Not a midlife crisis for anyone who's going to say that in in the comments. No, I've always wanted to do this.

Speaker 1 The boat that you bought, too?

Speaker 1 Well, it's an investment.

Speaker 1 It's an investment.

Speaker 1 Sorry. I'm getting you back for the PFTI.
The MMA class has been great, though.

Speaker 1 You a brown belt now?

Speaker 1 You know, my dojo, we don't really like to categorize. You know, everybody knows who's who.

Speaker 1 We don't need a belt to fucking prove it.

Speaker 4 You have many, many black belts, many instructors, just like the Nuts.

Speaker 1 We're not making fun of Ryan. If you want to see a sick rendition of Hotel California on his newly purchased boat, he will be ready in about a month.

Speaker 1 Hey, babe. Hey, baby, no, I play the guitar.

Speaker 4 What's that like when you get a guitar at this age? Because

Speaker 11 when you get it.

Speaker 1 There's a very specific style that I'm trying to teach myself.

Speaker 4 Yeah, there's certain songs that like

Speaker 11 you can't just do like the beginner style.

Speaker 1 Are you doing finger picking?

Speaker 4 Yeah. You're not playing.

Speaker 4 As a man, you can't pick up a guitar and be like, I'm learning this. And then your first instruction is like, Mary had a little lamb.

Speaker 1 No, no. I'm watching these finger-picking videos, and I'm teaching myself how to do it.
And so far, so good.

Speaker 1 I'm classically trained, so just have the ear. What? I have the ear.
Choir. Oh, you know that? Yeah.
So,

Speaker 1 really?

Speaker 1 Anyway.

Speaker 1 Whose pick is it?

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. So anyway, the point is that I was reading the Led Zeppelin biography, which is actually more of a bummer than it is.
It's a good book, but it's a bummer. Those guys kind of suck.
And

Speaker 1 then they were talking about how Jimmy Page was, like, as I was thinking about John Fahey, they mentioned how Paige was obsessed with Fahey as I was doing it.

Speaker 1 That's the worst story I've ever told on the podcast. No, I liked it.
It's the same universe. It's the same thing, right?

Speaker 1 Like, how insane is it that this very, I bet you 99.9% of the people listening are like, who are you talking about? Don't even worry about it.

Speaker 1 And when I was thinking about him as I was reading the book, because I was like, oh, I got to figure out this new part. It's been really hard.

Speaker 1 And then I was like, that's insane that that just happened. it's the moments that you're like, are we living in a simulation? And the alarm clock.
Good pic, chick. It'd be fucking great.
Oh,

Speaker 4 I had a fucked up alarm thing happen to me two weeks ago.

Speaker 4 This is fucking.

Speaker 1 Remember the day we thought you died? Yeah. Oh, yeah.
There's that one.

Speaker 1 I actually thought Peter.

Speaker 4 So one day I forgot to set my alarm and I just slept and I just didn't stop sleeping. Usually I wake up, even if I don't have an alarm, I wake up at like 9, 10 a.m., whatever.

Speaker 4 I just slept until about noon. Maybe it was 12.30.
I had to be on the radio at 11 a.m. So I slept all the way through that.
People thought I was dead.

Speaker 4 I was like, he might be dead. I woke up, you look at your phone, and it's just like a text message from everyone that you know in your life being like, Are you okay? Are you okay?

Speaker 4 And then you feel like a piece of shit, but I didn't do anything wrong. I just like slept too long one day.
I came into work, and everybody's like, PFT's on drugs.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you know, like everyone's very concerned about me. And I'm like, I swear to God, I literally just slept.
That's all that happened to me. But that's not the crazy alarm story.

Speaker 4 The crazy alarm story is I set my alarm alarm like, this is, I know, about a month ago,

Speaker 4 because I have to get breakfast. I'm in a hotel.
I have to get breakfast before I get on the cab that takes me back to the airport. It's taking a bunch of people back from the airport.

Speaker 4 So in order to do that, I have to order my room service an hour before I wake up because it takes them forever.

Speaker 1 Damn, that new contracts for the future.

Speaker 4 So I set my alarm.

Speaker 1 Yeah, first world problems. Yeah.

Speaker 5 So I set my alarm.

Speaker 4 And as I'm setting it to 6 a.m., the label on the alarm just pops up because I had just said to my friend, I was like, I got to set my alarm for 6 a.m.

Speaker 4 so I can remember to order room service before I actually have to wake up. I set it to 6 a.m.
and the title of the alarm is Order Room Service.

Speaker 4 Automatically. Pre-programmed into my phone.
I swear to God, I stopped.

Speaker 1 I got Steve Jobs.

Speaker 4 I stopped and I showed it to everybody. I was like, you guys are witnesses.
This, it just heard me say this. That's Steve Jobs.
And it automatically programmed my phone.

Speaker 4 That motherfucker's all up in our ass.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the phone stuff is, there's too many times where something happens. I go, this sucks, man.
Yeah, they know everything. And they hear everything.
All right, Jake and Billy.

Speaker 9 We're going to go with stopping the microwave before it beeps.

Speaker 4 Yeah, that's a good one. I save my seconds.
Yeah, you got to use your second.

Speaker 4 What will happen is you get down to like one second, you stop it, and then you put the food in the next time you use it, and you just click plus one minute, plus one minute, plus one minute.

Speaker 1 The other thing guys will do is they'll use the wrong numbers just to keep the keypads fresh.

Speaker 1 You ever heard that one? No, that's a lot of guys. 100 or whatever or 90.
Be like, I can throw an 84 on this.

Speaker 4 So that you don't wear down the ones.

Speaker 1 Now, we're going to say a lot of guys. Yeah, not many.
Not many. Okay, got it.
That's actually almost no one.

Speaker 4 That's actually a genius.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no. Somebody showed it to me once and they were like, oh, I'm like, what? You just typed in 112 or whatever.
Actually, that wouldn't be a good example.

Speaker 1 Like, yeah, instead of 90 seconds, it was like 86. And he's like, yeah, he keeps the keypads fresh.

Speaker 1 What a psycho.

Speaker 1 That's the resale value. My fucking one is down again.

Speaker 11 I got to call my one guy out here.

Speaker 1 All right, Batgirl. Team Batgirl.

Speaker 1 Some good picks.

Speaker 13 We're going to go with getting out of small talk.

Speaker 1 Ooh. What's your move?

Speaker 1 I would not be participating in this Olympic event, but I would like to watch other people participate in this one. Yes, that would be actually awesome to watch.

Speaker 1 Just put them in a situation where it's like a really bad co-worker that you have to like walk to work with and figure out a way. Like, oh, I got to go get a cup of coffee

Speaker 1 or some sort of situation where. Yeah, the most seamless.
And we could have it be like ice skating with judges. Yes.

Speaker 1 I know who win the gold medal because he did it to me. Who? The Miz.
Oh, really? Yeah, one of the biggest dick moves I've ever had anybody do to me in my entire life. Espie's party.

Speaker 1 You know, I'm with Chris Long. I'm with like...
Other dudes. I think Glazer was with us.
I think we had a UFC dude who was with us. I think Jules was with us.

Speaker 1 Like, it wasn't like the crew was a bunch of Mil Carton guys, right? And Miz was there, and I was like, oh, hey, what's up? He's like, we've done this before. I was like, what?

Speaker 1 He's like, yeah, this whole thing, like, hi, I'm you, and I'm, I'm me. Yeah, we've done this, pal.
Like, we don't need to do this again. And I was like,

Speaker 1 that's the biggest fuck you I've ever gotten from anyone in any. I had never met him before, ever.
Like, I never was on any of those TV shows the whole time. That guy would be Phelps.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's incredible. Well, that would be a good thing.
It was straight up to my face was like, yeah, pal, we're good. See, we've fucking done this before.

Speaker 1 You would get like great scores for the quickness, but the tact you'd lose points on if it was an Olympic event. I didn't want to talk to him.

Speaker 1 I mean, he got out of that conversation pretty quick after that.

Speaker 8 I mean, yeah, maybe you're right.

Speaker 1 Maybe if it was a gymnast, it would be like,

Speaker 1 that routine wasn't the hardest, but damn, it was efficient. Yeah, right.

Speaker 4 A German judge gives you high marks on that one. Yeah, yeah.
Did you dismount? In that moment, did you blame yourself? Were you thinking, wow, I must be just no fun to talk to?

Speaker 4 Or were you cognizant of the fact that that's weird? He's being a dick.

Speaker 1 I was like, fuck him.

Speaker 1 I was not thrilled.

Speaker 1 But then, like, when it's one of those guys, you're kind of like, all right, what are you going to really do about it? Just the Miz. Yeah.
Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 I was like. Oh, wait, wait, was that,

Speaker 1 I don't know, like, you could take him? Yeah, why would you put a cap on yourself?

Speaker 1 Right?

Speaker 1 Why would you have a sour turn? I don't know if shit went down. Like, it's not, it's not guaranteed.

Speaker 1 Yeah, right. I mean, I know what the line would be, but

Speaker 1 don't put a sour cap on any part of your life.

Speaker 5 Douglas B. Tyson.

Speaker 1 Shit happens.

Speaker 1 Yeah. What if I had a bad week? What if I was super mad about something else in my life? Yeah.
You know, you have two picks, right? You have your last two.

Speaker 1 I can't believe this one hasn't been taken yet because it would both be fascinating and you would learn packing. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Great one. I suck at it still.

Speaker 4 Great. Do you always forget something or just learn?

Speaker 1 There's one one thing that i'm like and then as soon as i come back from the trip it's on the bed yep yeah every time i've been forgetting underwear like i'll get a whole pants like i put all the i think these these luggage containers like you everybody buys them going oh this is awesome yeah and know what ends up happening is i leave one and then like i did a trip the other time i was like you left all the pants in that one cube you have no pants the whole week you're not gonna have any pants so that's why i wear the shirt shorts it's not about my legs it's just about packing so that's a great forgot my pants for the seventh consecutive tour.

Speaker 1 Great pick. Great pick.
Would love to watch the last one. Olympics.
Yep.

Speaker 1 Beach umbrella installation. Yes, yes.
Thank you.

Speaker 4 Thank you, Ryan. That's a big problem facing Americans today.
Beach umbrellas, we're getting lax with it.

Speaker 1 Because when somebody's really good at it, you're like, wow. That's incredible.
That guy's put some umbrellas in the beach.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you got to do the twist thing first, and then you build it from the ground up. Yep.

Speaker 1 And where to put it? You got to place it in the right spot. Like, there's a bad spot to put it where it's too far away from the people.

Speaker 4 Yep. Somebody died this weekend in South Carolina because a beach umbrella got blown out of the ground and it stuck into somebody and killed them.

Speaker 4 And so anytime I see the beach umbrella flying down the beach, I'm like, there should be a rule on the beach.

Speaker 4 If your umbrella gets blown out of the sand, it doesn't matter if it hits anybody. If you lose control of your umbrella, you're kicked off the beach for the rest of the day.

Speaker 1 You're banned.

Speaker 4 You get ejected. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Maybe that's like a different category of it.
Like there's speed installation and then they'd have to do something. It's in a wind tunnel.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 But then it's like, hey, instead of a medley wind tunnel day yeah it's just guys out there hope it holds up yeah and then you're gonna play the wind angles you get a little geometry involved maybe have it maybe have one of the competitions be like you have to put the beach umbrella in when it's cloudy and then the sun comes out did you put it in the right place i like that one yeah so do you do it like you're saying you're really good at the speed

Speaker 1 no i once i learned that like rounded thing yeah and then it's like wait do that again you're drilling it down yeah yeah yeah like that yeah we're gonna daughter we're gonna blur your legs out because Yeah.

Speaker 1 That would be funny, just to let you know. Just the whole bottom half of these blurs.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 I wouldn't say I'm great at it. I mean, there's some of these things I just want to be better at.

Speaker 1 These are things you want to watch, too. If this would have been like the Olympics thing of like, yeah, it would have been forgetting names.
Right. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Nobody forgets a name faster than me.

Speaker 1 I've tried those tricks. No.
They don't work. Because the other thing, too, with some of the tricks is like you're supposed to look at somebody's face.
And I'm like bad with this.

Speaker 1 If you have a really aggressive, weirdly placed mole, I'm going to look at it the whole fucking time. I can't stop looking at it.

Speaker 1 But they'll tell you to do that, to remember names, to be like, hey, you know, look at somebody's face. And then I'm like, what if, wait, wait.
Like, I don't know.

Speaker 1 When people can remember names, that's fascinating.

Speaker 1 It's also just a shit show when, like, we were on Grit Week and there was nine of us and we'd show up somewhere and there'd be like, you know, three or four dudes and be like, hey, what's up?

Speaker 1 And we'd go down the line. It's like, none of us remember any of our names.
Like, you know, when you do like the big meet? And everyone's like, hey, I'm here.

Speaker 1 Oh, you're saying they don't remember your name. No, no, like I, we can't remember theirs.
We're meeting like four four or five guys. They're meeting nine guys.
Like,

Speaker 1 it's just a fucking mess. Like, why do we even do it? All right.

Speaker 1 Batgirl. Last pick.

Speaker 13 Last pick. Another one I'm kind of surprised hasn't been picked yet, especially you talk about this a lot.
Big Cat.

Speaker 1 Putting a cooler together. Ah, yeah.
Packing a cooler would be good. Packing a cooler would be very good.

Speaker 5 Is that kind of like

Speaker 1 the tortilla?

Speaker 1 The soup thing, though. What do you mean? What? Is packing a cooler.

Speaker 1 Is it under the packing umbrella or is it?

Speaker 1 Oh, you think that you're calling ice? I'm just asking for clarification. Whoa, whoa, you're not.

Speaker 1 It's a completely different art.

Speaker 1 A completely different art. The cooler is it.
Don't let Ryan shame you.

Speaker 1 No, I just. That's for the listener.

Speaker 1 That's for the listener. That's not for me.
Very uncouth.

Speaker 14 And I will defend that to the death.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 There's a definite method to packing a cooler. You got to go

Speaker 1 a product ice. I retract the inquiry.

Speaker 1 Okay. Okay.

Speaker 4 Interesting. Good pick, Max.
Good pick.

Speaker 1 I think you guys are overselling it now, though.

Speaker 1 Great.

Speaker 1 Steal the draft. All right.
Jake and Billy, last one.

Speaker 5 And then we have our last one.

Speaker 1 Our last pick is jaywalking, running through traffic. Oh, that's a good one.

Speaker 4 Real life frogger. This is a game I used to play with my friends, just running across the street, trying to avoid getting hit by cars.

Speaker 1 It was the best rush.

Speaker 11 That's a great game.

Speaker 4 And I think it would be a great Olympic sport. Also, high stakes.

Speaker 1 Good viewership. Really high stakes.
Very high stacks.

Speaker 4 Maybe have it like during the 400-meter dash. You have to try to run between the runners that are running.

Speaker 1 During the Indy 500. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Good pick, though. Style points for like going in between close cars.
What's your closest call?

Speaker 4 Have you been hit by a car doing this?

Speaker 1 The hood of a taxi.

Speaker 1 That's really cool.

Speaker 4 It was like one of those small Toyota ones.

Speaker 4 It wasn't that big of a taxi.

Speaker 1 You would have.

Speaker 1 You got hit by a car doing this.

Speaker 1 That's what you said, yeah.

Speaker 1 It was a Corolla.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it was Corolla. It was like, you jumped onto the hood.
It was funny. What did the driver say?

Speaker 4 He yelled at me in some foreign language.

Speaker 1 I don't remember.

Speaker 1 I'm a lead at moving well through crowds, but that's a little different of a.

Speaker 1 Very good at it. You've always been good at it.
Always been good at it. That was a hot soup thing.
All right, yeah, hot soup. Yeah, exactly.
Callback joke.

Speaker 5 That's Titus' thing. I'll tell him that you ripped that off.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Last pick for us. PFT, what do we want to do?

Speaker 4 So I'm looking at yours. I kind of like the second one that you sent me because I had something similar to that.

Speaker 1 Which pointed to me.

Speaker 4 In your first thing,

Speaker 4 the first block of text. The second line's good there.
I also like the one that was right before the hitting every light in a row. Okay.
So either one of those two.

Speaker 1 Okay. Yeah,

Speaker 1 let's go with the phone one. That we're talking about? Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Saving your phone from being smashed with your feet.

Speaker 4 Just breaking the fall a little bit.

Speaker 1 Just that one little extra. Ooh.

Speaker 5 You get a toe on it.

Speaker 1 And everyone has to deal with it because everyone drops their phone. But the event's 2 a.m.
Yeah, right. You're drunk, and there's no case.
It's always no case. No case, no.
No case. No, no, ever.

Speaker 1 Rookies cases.

Speaker 1 Or it could be. Yeah, I would.
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 1 You wouldn't watch someone

Speaker 1 fumbling with their phone and trying to save it.

Speaker 1 They have to use only their feet. You'd have fucking Messi would win the gold medal, right?

Speaker 1 But if Messi were bad at it, it'd be like one of the most disappointing people. Yeah, it would be.
Ever. Ever.
You wouldn't watch it? You want to just see people get hit by cars? That is a spectacle.

Speaker 1 That's an Olympic sport.

Speaker 1 Okay, if you don't like the pick, you don't like the pick. That's fine.

Speaker 4 Someone jumps over a car?

Speaker 1 Well, yeah, that'd be cool.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but it was all that hijacking. Everyday activities, right? Like, everyday activities.
Like, are you always avoiding jaywalking?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, you're always jumping the subway. I just follow, I follow the fucking well.

Speaker 4 Sometimes you take chances, you know, it's like it's a ride and no one's coming.

Speaker 1 All the time. Then a car turns in.

Speaker 4 New York does have the best jaywalkers in the world.

Speaker 1 Yes. Yes.
They're very aggressive. If you go to Williamsburg, people just walk in the street.

Speaker 4 And it's just like, what's going on here?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I don't know what's going on with it because

Speaker 1 when I was in Europe, people were like,

Speaker 1 I just got back.

Speaker 1 They don't give a shit. I'm surprised you don't have an accent.
You should do a pod with that.

Speaker 4 Start saying cheers.

Speaker 1 I asked a guy a question in French once when he was from the Expos, and the other two co-hosts were like, fucking loser. Just like, you're the worst.
And I was like, all right, you know what?

Speaker 1 Noted, so I don't break that out. I'm not very good at it anymore anyway.

Speaker 1 We have honorable mentions. Do you have anything you

Speaker 1 know? I'm just excited to hear yours. Okay, I got a couple.

Speaker 1 One that I don't think it could really be an Olympic sport, but I know that I'm very good at it and so I don't know how you'd actually make the like sport but eating all the popcorn and snacks before the movie starts.

Speaker 1 I don't know like how you would because then it would just be a Joey Chestnut situation, but if you could figure out a way to make it a natural competition, it'd be fun to watch.

Speaker 1 Like, oh shit, this guy's got like the pace. There's only one preview left, and he's like almost done.
Would you always know, I imagine?

Speaker 4 I think you could pull it off as long as the people didn't know that.

Speaker 1 Didn't know, right, right. Because

Speaker 1 I would win the golden math. Do you eat all your popcorn before the the movie? Every fucking last bite.

Speaker 1 And all the candy, too. Popcorn is weird where you're just like, oh, so I'm just not going to stop.
You're like 12 hours straight.

Speaker 1 Is popcorn bad for you? Yeah.

Speaker 4 I feel like it's good for you.

Speaker 1 Well, I think it's fruit, right, Billy?

Speaker 1 Yeah. It's fruit.
Yeah, you know, if you leave all the stuff off of it, I think you're fine.

Speaker 1 Salt intake, if you did it all the time, probably wouldn't be great.

Speaker 1 The other one I had, I had two others that are specific. Knowing the moment a bet

Speaker 1 is lost. PFT and Hank have always said that I have great ability of that, of like doing the math in my head and being like, oh no, yeah, if we don't score here in like the third quarter, we're fucked.

Speaker 4 Yeah, he's always like two steps ahead of where my brain is. I'm like, okay, we're about to get a touchdown here.
Then they'll probably have enough time before halftime to kick a field goal.

Speaker 4 But then Big Cat's already running through the third quarter implications of that.

Speaker 1 And I'm just like, no, no, no, if we don't get seven here, we're done.

Speaker 4 You're also very good at watching sports.

Speaker 4 And by that, I mean, like, we'll have the entire wall of TV set up, and I'll have a soccer game that I'm betting on, or a hockey game, and I'm paying more attention to all the other things.

Speaker 4 And within probably half a second of a goal being scored, Big Kettle will be like, goal. Yeah.
He just knows it when it happens.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you know what is kind of like that, but it's also different, is watching football with Stanford Steve. If you were like, oh, hey, that was to,

Speaker 14 you know,

Speaker 1 that was, well, Thielen and Jefferson would be a little tough to confuse.

Speaker 1 If you... If you're watching a game and you're like, oh, who had the score on that? And then if you had it wrong, he'd be like, no, it was Ertz.
And you're like, what?

Speaker 1 And he'd be like, it was Ertz on a slant. And then you're like, okay.
And then I'd be like, oh, shit, was that the same guy? He's like, that was 22. That's 24.

Speaker 1 And you're just like, Jesus, like the guys that played football or coached, the way, Billy knows,

Speaker 1 the way they identify the things that happen in sequence, it's a completely different level of money.

Speaker 4 Edelman Amandola. Yeah.
That kind of mix up.

Speaker 1 That's a good one. Yeah.
Because they're both stout. This one, though, they play scrappy.
Right.

Speaker 1 This one people will probably make fun of me for, but I am incredible at keeping a cone clean, ice cream cone.

Speaker 1 You know, where I was just in Europe, that would come in handy there. People love gelato.

Speaker 5 And is it everywhere? Are they making a mess or are they keeping it clean?

Speaker 1 Just great cone maintenance. No, I was watching a couple kids eat their cones, and it was just awesome to see the selfishness of like a seven-year-old with a cone.
He's like, I'm making a mess.

Speaker 1 I'm getting it everywhere. And if this goes bad, I'm going to demand another one.
Yeah, right. And I'm going to get clean.
Like, someone's going to come clean me up after this. Yeah, right.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And you have to clean me.

Speaker 4 I had

Speaker 4 taking clean shit. So, like, fewest amount of toilet paper swipes used.

Speaker 1 That would be a weird one to watch. Yeah, but

Speaker 1 that's one that's best on the radio or on StatCast.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I wouldn't watch that.

Speaker 5 But yeah, someone, Germans probably. But like the cleanest shit.

Speaker 1 Germans, yeah.

Speaker 1 They love the word shit. No, I think they have the 50 version.

Speaker 4 The Germans want the messiest shit on the chest.

Speaker 5 Yeah, they want the shit on the chest.

Speaker 5 I had.

Speaker 1 Oh, you're talking like videos. Yeah.
Michael Lewis wrote about it in Boomerang, where he talked about the German thing, and he was like, their fascination with the word shit is hilarious.

Speaker 4 Yeah, what is that about Germans?

Speaker 14 I don't know. I've been there, though.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. I'll tell you about it.
You're very worldly.

Speaker 4 I had cooking the perfect steak without using internal thermometer, just knowing off the sizzle of the pan.

Speaker 4 Actually, you asked what the fights that we've gotten in on this podcast. The fight over Medium Rare Plus is probably the most

Speaker 4 serious fight. See, it's starting again.

Speaker 1 It's a very one-sided fight.

Speaker 4 It's starting again right now. Ryan, if you're out to dinner with the boys, hang out and just chilling with the fellows.
This is only on PFT. Just chilling with boys.

Speaker 4 And somebody at the table orders a medium rare steak. And then the person next to him says, can I have a medium rare plus steak? What are your thoughts on that?

Speaker 1 I mean, look, I guess you could say technically it is a different temperature. I would say most people, like...

Speaker 1 if you put down a plus and a medium rare in front of them, most people are never going to know the difference. Yeah, interesting.

Speaker 1 Whenever I go to a nice steakhouse, I don't like when they do, I always think medium rare, they always cook cook it a little bit closer to rare, and I like it a little bit more.

Speaker 1 And PFT doesn't like people to just live their life, it doesn't bother him whatsoever.

Speaker 4 As someone that's worked in a restaurant, I sympathize with winter.

Speaker 1 It has nothing to do with it. You just don't, I think it has to do with the fact that people have told me I'm right and you don't like that.
No,

Speaker 4 that's why, because I know, yeah, I know what it's like from that side of the house.

Speaker 1 You know what I like about anything, though, is I don't like anybody fucking with how you want to eat. Thank you.
So I'm sorry, but like Cowherd, I don't know know if you guys know him, agile, sinewy.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Physically.

Speaker 1 He would, he would always, he did like a rant once. He's like, don't be change your order guy.
And I was like, what?

Speaker 1 And we started, he goes, if there's a salad and, you know, you don't want onions, just pick them off.

Speaker 1 Or

Speaker 1 I could just ask you to not have fucking onions because onion taste is still going to be on there if I have to pick it off the whole time.

Speaker 1 Cowherd also once made a point about you shouldn't ever check a bag, which some people believe in. But I'd be like, well, what if you're gone like a certain number of days?

Speaker 1 Like, you got to check a bag. He'd be like, just buy new clothes and then mail them home.
I'm like, wait, wait.

Speaker 1 You think the solution of the efficiency of not checking a bag is solved by buying new clothes on the road and then mailing them.

Speaker 1 Or you have seven people that work on the show that are always mailing your stuff.

Speaker 4 That's the ultimate checking a bag is buying new clothes and then making a special trip to UPS to send your clothes home separately.

Speaker 1 Yeah. But I tip well.
I always, I never like am mean to waiters. I ask for steaks a certain way.
I don't think it's a big deal.

Speaker 4 The coward thing also strikes me as he probably went on vacation with his wife, and he just got mad because he had a wait at baggage claim with her. He's like, we could have been home by now.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he had this massive baggage claim thing, and then he had this, don't change the ingredients when you order at a restaurant.

Speaker 1 And I like stopped him in the hallway to be like, I've never disagreed more about

Speaker 1 why if I have the option to take something, like, why would I want stuff on it that I don't want on it that I now have to like add this? I want sardines on my Caesar salad.

Speaker 4 I ate a restaurant on Friday,

Speaker 4 and right on the menu, it said, we kindly decline all substitutions or modifications. Like, right on there, it was the nicest rejection I've ever had.

Speaker 1 Hey, look, when sometimes you do those packages of food, I'm like, I kind of don't want that dessert. Yeah, so you know, do I say something? Yeah.
All right, any other honorable mentions? Anyone else?

Speaker 1 Spitting. Ooh,

Speaker 1 spitting.

Speaker 4 That's good.

Speaker 1 I had one parent one, and it would be fun to watch be dangerous, but I do think the ability to just know the second that one of your small children is about to do something very dangerous on the stairs is a, it would be a fun Olympic sport to watch because it's just, it's an innate parent.

Speaker 1 They fall down a lot, huh? Yeah, and it's also just like when there's like a...

Speaker 5 Parents will know what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 When there's like...

Speaker 1 Maybe more than like 20 seconds of silence, you're like, wait, something bad is about to happen. Because they always are silent before the the danger.

Speaker 1 It's never like if they're giggling and laughing, it's like, ah, they're just fucking around. But when the silence happens, it's like, uh-oh, I got to jump into action here.

Speaker 1 So that would be a fun Olympic sport to watch.

Speaker 5 What do you got, memes?

Speaker 1 Mowing the lawn. Oh, yep.
That would be great. That would be great.
That would be a great one. They probably have that.
Yeah, they probably do. Something like Iowa.
Yeah. Why Iowa? I don't know.

Speaker 1 They just, John Deere

Speaker 1 tournament. Sounds a little anti-Iowa.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 No, I think if you had someone from Iowa here, they'd be like, yeah, Moan the Lawn kicks ass. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Let's look at our favorite things.

Speaker 4 It's all I have to look forward to. My bleak Iowan life.
Assembling furniture and moving.

Speaker 1 Okay, moving a couch, maybe. Moving a couch in a hallway would be a great one.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. That should have been the number one thing.
Yeah, moving a couch in a narrow hallway. Because you want to know why it'd be great is everyone thinks they can figure it out.
Yep. Yep.

Speaker 1 And you never can.

Speaker 4 I like assembling furniture too. Like from Ikea.
Yeah. I had to help someone move this weekend.

Speaker 1 Oh, I had it.

Speaker 1 I had a leather couch that I moved from Connecticut to LA and it sat in the garage for a year. And some other thing got delivered.
And the guy's like, what's up with that? I go, it doesn't fit.

Speaker 1 He goes, I'll get it to fit. I go, it's not going to fit.
He goes, it's not going to fit. We had movers here.
They tried, different angles. Doesn't fit.

Speaker 1 I have to have it craned in if I'm ever going to do it. He's like, I'll get it to fit.
I go, look, if you can get it up there, I'll give you an extra hundred bucks.

Speaker 1 I was like, but I don't want to have to pay $1,000 to repair all the sheetrock that you're going to fuck up. He's like, I got it.
I got it. And him and his buddy, they sat there.

Speaker 1 They fucking smashed it into my walls. They're like, yeah, it's not going to fit.

Speaker 1 Oh, I just thought of a good one. I got to like that, though.
But that'd be a great. I'd watch the beginning.

Speaker 1 Like, you know how great it would be to intro in the two guys and be like, they think it always fits.

Speaker 4 I just thought of a good one we should have done shaving. Yeah.
Just like you're not, everybody has like a beard, and then you're given five minutes. It's like, turn this into something.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 4 On your own face.

Speaker 1 I like that. And there could be like a minimum swipe, like goal, like fastest lap.
Yep, yep. Yep, yep.
How many, yeah.

Speaker 1 What are you going to say, Billy?

Speaker 4 From the old Trojan commercial, Sex Olympics.

Speaker 1 Oh, you said, what, porn?

Speaker 1 You had a porn problem? No, that was porn.

Speaker 4 Wait, what? There was a Trojan commercial.

Speaker 1 If you guys remember, there was a whole

Speaker 1 when there was an Olympics.

Speaker 4 That was...

Speaker 4 People would watch that.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 people would watch that.

Speaker 1 You're also talking about porn.

Speaker 4 Yeah, wait.

Speaker 1 I'm not. Why is it different than porn? Exactly.

Speaker 4 You're the uber for porn no no it's the athletic like achievement like you know not the because it's not for like visual it's like the performance based

Speaker 5 like

Speaker 4 speed endurance strength so you're just

Speaker 1 porn

Speaker 1 no

Speaker 1 it's porn with just different times it's like dancing versus sports one's a performance so you're talking about nude dancing but with penetration yeah and so you're talking about more fast porn no just the best i think you're talking about the the best porn that you've ever seen.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 11 No, but like, like.

Speaker 1 What would it be? Like, yeah,

Speaker 1 paint a picture.

Speaker 1 Pitch it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Loads, longest loads. Yeah.
Let me give you one.

Speaker 4 Deepest throat. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Biggest tits?

Speaker 4 Well, no, more like athletic competition.

Speaker 1 Like accuracy, hitting the correct horns. Endurance.
Wettest foot job.

Speaker 1 Speed.

Speaker 4 No, Billy, walk me through. Like, paint me a picture.
What am I looking at on the screen? Volume.

Speaker 1 Volume. What? Volume.
Pretty sure all this is out there. Yeah, this is porn.

Speaker 4 No, but like, I want to see like

Speaker 4 strongman competitions like our feats of strength.

Speaker 1 I want to see that for

Speaker 1 how many times someone can have sex? I don't know. It's just who's infected.
They have that too. Yeah.
So

Speaker 1 the entire woods biopic. Like, who, who wins?

Speaker 4 Who can make the other person finish first?

Speaker 1 Oh, so it's head-to-head. Yeah.

Speaker 11 So you look, yeah, okay.

Speaker 4 All right, now I'm into this. So you win if the other person comes

Speaker 1 first, yeah. Yeah.
But you lose if you... I think you just made that part up to kind of

Speaker 1 save himself. I'm into that.

Speaker 1 Like, who wins?

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 4 Who's your goat, Billy?

Speaker 4 Johnny Sids. Yeah.
Nancy Reagan.

Speaker 1 That's a good one. That's a good one.
All right, Jake, did you have something else?

Speaker 9 Bedmaking.

Speaker 1 Bedmaking, yeah. Well, that would suck.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I've seen some of those videos where they throw everything up, and I'm like, that's amazing, but

Speaker 1 I'm never going to get there.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Jake is an excellent bedmaker.
bedmaker.

Speaker 4 I don't know what's an outlier. No, so Jake stayed over at my place, and he made the bed up so nicely.
I thought that that was the wrong bedroom. I was like, there's no chance Jake slept in here.

Speaker 4 It was better than any hotel bedroom I've ever seen.

Speaker 1 Dude, when you stay at somebody's place and you make the bed, that's when you're growing up. Yeah, or that's when

Speaker 1 you're raised a certain way. Yeah, Jake is always Jake was making the bed when he was 16.

Speaker 1 That's something.

Speaker 1 I think I was like 38 the first time I did it. Yeah, when I did it, I was like, you know what? Things are really, we're still those figuring out.

Speaker 4 Is it your boy Field Yates? He makes the bed in a hotel room every day?

Speaker 1 That I don't know. I never slept with him.

Speaker 1 You lost. I mean, I think the maids would

Speaker 1 like that less. He is.

Speaker 1 I'm at Field Yates.

Speaker 4 He's got some game to him. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Field Yates would definitely be in my Olympics for sex watching. Danny, did you watch Field Yates fuck, Billy?

Speaker 4 You know, I was just referencing the commercial.

Speaker 1 Yeah. But you would, right?

Speaker 1 Say you'd watch him fuck. You'd watch him fuck.

Speaker 1 Field Yates?

Speaker 1 I can't wait until he hears it. If he hears it, he's like, wait, what the fuck?

Speaker 1 All right, numbers. Let's finish the show.
One to ten, how good of a hookup do you think Philip Yates is?

Speaker 1 Let me just

Speaker 4 say, serious question. Out of everybody in this room right now, if you were to walk past a window and see them having sex, which one would you stop and watch? You can only pick one.

Speaker 1 Oh, I think he knows he'd pick me. He just doesn't want to say it.
Yeah, no, definitely. He'd want to see the back muscles working and everything.

Speaker 1 Perfect.

Speaker 1 Was that who you were going to pick? But you didn't want to say that? I was going to pick memes. Oh, nice.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah, a little curveball. Nice match.
All right. Numbers.

Speaker 1 Ryan, go ahead. You get first pick.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 from scale of one to what again? One to 100.

Speaker 1 Let's go. 77.
58 is out.

Speaker 5 91.

Speaker 5 26.

Speaker 1 66.

Speaker 14 11.

Speaker 4 Jake was 26.

Speaker 4 Hank has never won this, by the way.

Speaker 1 Never won this, Hank. What happens when you win? Nothing.
Just kidding. We all are like, wait, did you really pick that number?

Speaker 1 It's like names we don't remember. What do we got? Is it just two? Is it a raw two?

Speaker 1 Wow, Moses Malone.

Speaker 1 Sorry, memes. Memes always picks three.
Re two pecked. Brutal.
Love you guys. You guys got to come up with something.
If you don't have anything, you've been doing this the whole time.

Speaker 5 I've won the most.

Speaker 1 It's very.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I have.

Speaker 5 Is that true, Jake? Yeah.

Speaker 1 I've won three times.

Speaker 1 I'm pretty sure I've won.

Speaker 1 Pretty sure.

Speaker 1 I've won three.

Speaker 4 I think we're tied then.

Speaker 4 Because I've won three. 69's hit three times.

Speaker 1 Yes, that's what I think.

Speaker 1 That's one of them. Billy picks it every time.

Speaker 1 The guys who are around the 16-year-old, you're just like, because I hit 18 three times, and then you got

Speaker 1 to smoke cigarettes. He's just his favorite number 69.

Speaker 1 I was here for all of 66.

Speaker 4 Is it still cool to tell 69 jokes if you're like, I was here for all of 69's hits?

Speaker 1 I feel like 69 is the most.

Speaker 4 We can't make 69 jokes anymore.

Speaker 1 Billy has the the most? No, I don't. She says so.
I don't think he's over at all. Like the guy that gets the 69 software jersey.

Speaker 1 The first one was. That actually happens in a big catalogue.

Speaker 4 When somebody makes us a jersey, they'll make us a 69 jersey.

Speaker 4 We don't tell 69 jokes anymore. The first one was the first hit ever.
The second one was coming back from

Speaker 4 suspension the first time.

Speaker 1 Third, third time. I noticed you mentioned come again.

Speaker 1 Or no, the third time.

Speaker 1 Oh, I was there. I have the dates.
Oh, I have the dates. Yeah, okay.
Oh, my God. Jake's got the suspension.
Yeah. You do not want to argue with the guy right there.
Yeah, yeah, we saw that.

Speaker 9 Then it actually hit back to back July 8th and July 11th. Of what? 2021.
I feel like that was

Speaker 1 on it.

Speaker 1 I think you were on suspension.

Speaker 4 No, I was. I was back after July 4th.

Speaker 1 I was. I think so.
I was gone for June.

Speaker 9 I remember one time he hit it, and it was awkward because...

Speaker 1 You guys got mad at him and then you didn't celebrate.

Speaker 4 Yeah, there was that awkward time, and then I hit it like a trip.

Speaker 1 So he definitely hit it twice. I don't know about the third.
You hit it three times?

Speaker 1 I've hit it three times.

Speaker 9 18's hit it four times, but after I won 18 on the third, you're like, win it with a different team.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 Move on. You're a second player.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I started. And what's up with 18? Is 18?

Speaker 14 That's my lucky number.

Speaker 1 Okay, but I mean, maybe there's some weight distribution in that if it's not.

Speaker 1 All we know is Hank has never won.

Speaker 9 That would be 52, nine times.

Speaker 1 Wow, it's nice. Nine times.

Speaker 4 Yeah, 52, one of the things.

Speaker 1 So Billy and Jake are tied for three, and Hank still has zero. Billy's saying he has four.

Speaker 4 No, No, it's three. I got that wrong.

Speaker 1 Good accountability. Yeah.
I don't know. But you did say pretty sure, not totally sure.

Speaker 1 That's true.

Speaker 4 That's true. How much are you benching these days?

Speaker 1 This is all over, by the way.

Speaker 5 We're just talking about all this.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 you know,

Speaker 1 I just try to see if I get 315 a couple times. Yeah, just tossed around.
MK

Speaker 4 677.

Speaker 1 What do you mean?

Speaker 4 I'm just wondering.

Speaker 1 I'm surprised you ever talked to me about benching.

Speaker 1 that in.

Speaker 4 Crocodiles have a hard fight force down, but are actually very weak at opening their mouths. So that's why you can hold their

Speaker 1 mouths together. All right, now we're really done.

Speaker 1 Feel less to say.

Speaker 1 Say it up

Speaker 1 and away.

Speaker 1 Say after me.

Speaker 1 I'll expect that you'll be safe and summon. Say after me.

Speaker 1 I expected you'd be safe and summon.

Speaker 1 I feel that they

Speaker 1 are

Speaker 1 reasonably.

Speaker 1 You all think that you remember when you shine away.

Speaker 1 Love and coming for you anyway.

Speaker 1 You're shining away.

Speaker 1 Love me coming to you, they like

Speaker 1 all the

Speaker 1 Take on me.

Speaker 1 Hallelujah.
