Starting point is 00:00:00 I had like a true meltdown crash out moment where I stole a golf card, took off across the golf course, and I hit up in a tree for hours while the entire tournament looked for me. Welcome to Almost Athletes with Dude Perfect, A Wave Original. I'm Garrett. I'm Spark. I'm Coates. Yes, everyone knows big boy codes. That's good.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Back for another week. Here we are. Back in the saddle. Yeah. You cleaned up today. dude. Yeah, we got a board meeting. Yeah. You dress up for the board meeting. Just every once in a while because it's not what you do today, it's what you do tomorrow that matters.
Starting point is 00:00:50 Wow. Yeah, trust for the job you want, not the job you have. That's inspirational, Jones. You always live for the present. I don't live for the future. Really? You never, you're not guaranteed another breath, dude. That's a good point. Yeah, see, I think you got to rethink your saying. So why Sana? Oh, because I just needed a good sweat out. Got it. But hey, as always, you can watch or listen to the podcast on the app. There's a watchathon happening. Yep. So earn those rewards for consecutive days watch. Wow. And like we've mentioned, the last couple pods, we're going on tour. Next summer, the big announcement's coming with the exact dates and pre-sell for tickets.
Starting point is 00:01:25 I'm hoping Santa brings me tour tickets. I don't know if I've been a good boy. Only you can answer. I know. I'm right on that. He got six months left. I'm right on that 2.0 grade point average. Yeah. That's good.
Starting point is 00:01:38 I'm either ineligible or not. It's so good. I guess we'll find out. But to celebrate the NFL's Europe games, we're going to do a little taste test, German and Spanish snacks. For real. I'm not a big German food guy,
Starting point is 00:01:53 to be completely honest with you. I'm glad we're tasting and not speaking German or Spanish. You don't like a hot dog. Now that you say that, if that's German, I'm all in on German food. Bratwurst. And we're going to look at some amazing fan-submitted Almost Athlete video.
Starting point is 00:02:08 Later, we're going to get an interview with the one and only. Glenn Powell. Well, one and only. And we brought back Jackson with his new roommate, another Gen Zier, Graham. And they're going to teach us a little lingo slang. Cool. A lot on tap then. Supposedly, you know, we might have motion is what they say, Sparks.
Starting point is 00:02:30 So let's get to it. The NFL has taken over Europe this season with seven games total. That's about five too many, if you're asking me. First, how do we feel about the international games? I always forget it's happening. It really affects my fantasy lineup, and I'm scrambling. I have a loss because I was playing Corey. 8.30 kick didn't look at my lineup,
Starting point is 00:02:58 and I forgot to sub-out Jalen for Gainwell. That was 30 points I left on the table. Because if you're like me in codes and you're American, the only thing happening before 10 a.m. on a Sunday? Premier League. Premier League. Well, Church as well. Yes, but Premier League Sport.
Starting point is 00:03:13 Right. Because city... They get the Sunday games. Well, because they play in every cup to the end of, you know, and they're always on that, to get the extra day arrest or on the Sunday game. It's true. Man United, see, we're early 6.30 Saturday morning, and then Burnley's at 9. I will say this.
Starting point is 00:03:29 I do think it's an unfair advantage from just like a... For the traveling sides. The Cowboys are extremely lucky in the since they don't have to go across the pond. Dude, they've never had to have they? That's earned. Me and you are off that Disney World Record video. lag, mine was a week. Yours was north of a week, I think, until you got fully back. Oh, if I'm a left guard, I'm giving up six sacks after a jet lag. Exactly. I don't think you
Starting point is 00:03:53 have to worry about being a left guard. I don't think it's that different going from like Jacksonville to Europe as it is to go from L.A. to New York. No, it's not. It's similar. It is similar. So let's just all calm down a little bit. Fair. Yeah, I guess you make a good point there. It is similar. Tell that to the Jaguars, though. Go to London every single year. Don't be the Jaguars. Multiple times a year. Multiple times a year. They get it bad. And it counts as like one of their home games. I'm a foodie, and we've got food here, and we're still talking. Yeah, let's do a little foodie.
Starting point is 00:04:18 Thank you. Good transition, dude. Since the NFL went to Berlin, we'll start with the German side of things. Cody, you are a taste test champion on over time. French fries. Well, French fries, pizza. Don't say yourself short. You were almost too good at pizza.
Starting point is 00:04:32 It's true. So as a residential taste test guy, I feel like it's only fitting that you kind of grade these as we go along. Here's the tough thing. I've never found a food that I didn't like. I have. Really, sourcrow? It's a problem at home. Sourcrow, on a hot dog, I'm fine. I'm not going to eat a plane.
Starting point is 00:04:49 I mean, he's to the point. He's like, maybe going to eat his third child. Dude, I legit. We went to Germany for the Champions League. We did. It was a really cool time. Well, not actually cool. It was hot because they don't believe in centralized air conditioning,
Starting point is 00:05:02 which still amazes me. The potential they have over there in Germany. Just put some AC in. My life would have been so much better. I came home thinking negatively because no still water, no centralized AC. You go to Colorado, there's not a lot of... I was tired of the sausages.
Starting point is 00:05:17 I got tired of the sausages. Yeah, but sausage overload, wasn't it? I never figured you for a guy who gets tired of sausages. You go to Germany, you'll rethink that. You weren't on that trip. You were. You were synonymous with sausages in my mind. That's...
Starting point is 00:05:28 You don't want to be the guy synonymous with sausage. Can I just have a kinder schlach babangangung? Whatever you hire, if you say that? What? Which one's that? Can we speak German? I'm just for eating. Kinder?
Starting point is 00:05:41 Shkobobons. The Shoko Bonds? Man, try reading the back of that. Doesn't make any sense to me. Give me one of them. This looks like maybe a coconut inside chocolate. An almond joy, a blue almond joy, if you will. German chocolate is good.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Kinder is a German word for children. That is fantastic. It's nice. I take everything back I said about you, Germany. Great food. Hamburger. Is that part of their thing over there? I think.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Man, that's phenomenal. Good start? Very good. What's the American player cop? I see, I don't like American chocolate. Milk dud? Okay. Yeah, milk duds.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Yeah. These are better than milk duds to me. Yeah, I agree. Not as heavy on the teeth. So we're one for one, though. Yeah, let me make sure. It's a milk chocolate bite with hazelnut filling. I have no idea what hazelnut is.
Starting point is 00:06:30 But it's fantastic. It's really good. Yeah, like you'd get them in your Easter basket. No. Mm. Pretty good. That's good. All right, moving on.
Starting point is 00:06:40 I'm guessing this is pronounced Knopper. Oh yes. Storknoppers, dude? Knopper? Am I come from the Lopper family? Is that layered? That looks like that's going to be nice.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Did you just pick sweets from Germany? You didn't go with like some... Oh, Cody was on set today. Oh, wow. This looks like a smore meat. It passes the smell test. Give it a little sniffy. Oh.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Oh, yeah. Oh, I'm buying these. What are these? Knoppers? Yeah, I'm in. Bro. That's real good. Man, who knew?
Starting point is 00:07:11 Dude, a little salty and sweet action. That's really good. Oh, that's phenomenal. Can I check the rest of those home? Absolutely. This is better than the kinder Shkoboban's. Third up, we're going with the Mercy Petites. Wow.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Is that how you would describe that? I don't even know. Stork Knopper. That might be my favorite thing I've ever eaten. That's really good. So this looks like white chocolate on top, a darker chocolate on the bottom. But it's coffee cream.
Starting point is 00:07:35 Mm. Corey would love that. Corey loves coffee flavored things. I like coffee flavored things. Like I'd have 10 of those. That's not what I'm seeking out. No. First and foremost.
Starting point is 00:07:48 I put this. But if I like this, I would say this is like your, your Tootsie roll. And that thing is just so much better than a Tootty roll. Tootsie roll? Tutsi roll? Tutsi roll? I would say this one.
Starting point is 00:08:02 Tutsi? Tutsi? I would say this one is like a German grandmother's favorite. You know, how they kind of have the outdated candy bowl at least. Dude, you drop one of those. My grandparents did. That'd be good. Yeah, you can miss me with that one.
Starting point is 00:08:15 Yeah, that was their one at the bottom. Yeah, it was good, not great. Let's go soda pop. I don't, I've had a fanta. Do I actually have to drink this? Well, this is a different fanta. Yeah, it's not. Yeah, oh, their fantas are different, dude. They're not. Yep. Like, these are actually orange. Yeah, this is probably
Starting point is 00:08:31 just squeezed oranges. I wouldn't love some more carbon in there. Yeah, there was a much of it. Listen to it. It's not cold. Fanta is actually short for fantasy, the German word for imagination. Oh, see, and they also do this.
Starting point is 00:08:45 I'm trying to... That's the worst soda pop-up. I'm trying to rip that away. They do it as like, you never lose your cap. Yeah, I don't like that. I don't need the leash for my cap. In fact, it makes it really hard to put back on.
Starting point is 00:08:54 The leash. I think American Fanta is better than that. Or is it the same thing. Probably the same. Oh, mm-mm. This guy's nuts. Definitely different. Less Carbo, more orangeo.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Yeah, America wins on this. I'm going back to the well. I'm about to go to a knopper, dude. These knoppers were legit. Spark, there's only one more. No, we got a whole in the pack of knoppers, brother. Good, I'm taking this home. Once you knob, you can't stop.
Starting point is 00:09:22 That's what they say over to Germany. That doesn't even rhyme. That's what they say. Ooh, I shouldn't put that on the German flag, should I? Greatest German of all time. Let's go ahead and announce it. We already know who it is. Dirk.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Yeah, okay. God, you're reading my mind there. I'm going to dip into the fish sticks. usually I like my fish sticks pre-heated by about 425 degrees in oven Those are fish sticks? Fish sticks No Do what we're calling them
Starting point is 00:09:45 They're free to be the first one to try it Yeah, I will You might speak fluent German after a couple of those You might be driving a Volkswagen next week, Gare What's your favorite German-made car Volkswagen? Yeah No, Mercedes
Starting point is 00:10:00 BMW I think is also German, is it not? Mercedes A little out of my fighting glass. These are fantastic. Did they taste like fish? I'm a chip guy. Salmon? Tuna?
Starting point is 00:10:13 No, they're like Cheetos. I'm a fry guy. Hmm. So this is like a counter. No, it's like a barbecue chip. Oh, these are like hot fries. Yeah. Yeah, they got the little pepper on the front.
Starting point is 00:10:23 Those are unbelievable. Oh, good crunch. Those are unbelievable. You can hear that crunch upstairs. It can you buy in America. You pop the tin off. But they added little barbecue. A pringle?
Starting point is 00:10:36 No. Pop the top and they're like the skinny chips. What are they called? Oh, I know what you're talking about. I know exactly what you're talking about. Potato sticks. Sour cream and onion. Oh, potato sticks.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Yeah, the blue bottle. No. Yellow. So this is pretty much just... We pull up a picture of what Cody's talking about just so I... Just type in potato sticks. Yeah, potato sticks. These are potato chips and stick form.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Yeah, a rib. Yeah, those right there. Yellow. Yellow is the one I was thinking of. The picnics? Picnics. But these are flavor. I mean, I mean, all around,
Starting point is 00:11:05 when I was in Germany, I didn't have one of those things. You did I. See, and I think Germany is actually better when it's like a hot entree food, not just like a snackage. I could have survived a lot longer in Germany if I knew they had food like this. I mean, dude, the hot dog, the wiener-snitzel. Dude, I had pretzel. I had a pretzel three times a day.
Starting point is 00:11:27 That's all I had. I didn't like the sausages, man. I'm telling you. I didn't like them. They weren't good. It's on the ground. In Germany, I struggled to find the food I wanted. But if I would have had a Knopper, I would have lived off Knoppers.
Starting point is 00:11:38 You are nuts. Right. So how do we rank these boys? What was your favorite German dish there? Knopper. Not even close. It's a Nopper world. I might go this number two.
Starting point is 00:11:47 I might go this too, and then I'm going, I like the coffee. Oh. Weird. And then I like the hazelnut, and then you can give me, then you could still give me a sausage and then Fanta. Wow. Fanta was not good. I'm pretty close to that. That's a good ranking.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Okay, boys. Well, the fun just started. since the Washington commanders and Miami Dolphins are battling it out in Madrid, Spain. I feel like it's only fair that we dip into some Spanish foods. Quit hogging the fish sticks, brother, and let's have a Spanish party over here. What are these? Polvaronais. Oh, this is a lot.
Starting point is 00:12:20 I don't know what this is. I think this is going to be a pop-tart. Yeah, it feels like a Pop-Tart from afar. Nope. Definitely not a Pop-Tart. What are these? It's like a sugar. We should just call a cook.
Starting point is 00:12:32 The provolonez is doing it for me, boys. That's cinnamon toast crunch on a cookie. Soaked in Fana. Why is it say orange? Why is it provolone as orange? You getting an orange kick there? Yeah. I'm getting a little citrusy kick at the end.
Starting point is 00:12:48 See, I don't like my sugar and my fruit combined. Well, fruit is a natural sugar. Is it? I didn't know that. But still, like, I don't want to get blindsided when I'm eating a shug cookie, and all of a sudden it tastes like I'm eating an orange. I'm trying to escape. fruits and veggies. It's an educational show too, folks. It's just the blind side aspect of catching some orange taste down the stretch that didn't see coming. Like if they give you a cheesecake and they load it up with like raspberries and strawberries, like can we kill the fruit? It's dessert time. Exactly. I made my fruit for dessert. I didn't know what I'm saying. I didn't know it'd be ranking desserts from these two countries. Beautiful countries by the way.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Oh, these are goldfish. The Vidal's? No, these are gummy. Yeah, these are gummy. Oh, that's crazy. Oh, They feel like... It's like a... You know those squish toys that you... They're kind of popular? Okay, wow. Wow, Gerb. Oh, they're spicy.
Starting point is 00:13:46 No. Oh. Oh, that is Spanish as it gets. It's an orange gummy. So think of like a gummy bear. Dude, those are ripping spicy. Meets jalapeno pepper in the middle. But I can't take my...
Starting point is 00:14:00 I can't stop eating them. The burn is honestly nice. It's like firing my tongue up. Again, I don't like that. Don't spice up my candy. I was not ready for that. Made with yellow 5 and red 40. Oh, darn.
Starting point is 00:14:15 You're dumb. Why did you make me eat that? I don't do that. You ate a pack of Swedish fish yesterday. Next. All right. Let's get that taste out of our mouth. Should we go black truffle?
Starting point is 00:14:26 No. No. Gross. A little potato chip. Jamon abriko. Dude, that was wicked. I see, I don't like that. The more time goes on, I didn't like that.
Starting point is 00:14:42 I feel like this thing could survive a hurricane. That's... What it puts the expiration date on a bag that carbonated, 2038? Those things would be hanging around for a while without much air in it. No, different flavor. That's the black truffle. This is a... Oh, this is provolone.
Starting point is 00:15:00 Who opens a bag of chips like that? That's how they're teared. Oh! Oh, that's powerful. Oh, ho! Talk to me. Oh, boy, I just ate the worst thing I've ever had in my life. Mine is like, oh.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Bro. It's so potent? Bro, I, I know. Truffle fries. No. I'm okay. No. Bro, this is meat flavored, dude.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Meat flavor. Yeah, what do you think it was? There was meat on the package. Oh. No way. No way. You just maybe try it. I knew that was a horrible idea.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Why? That's horrible. That's got like a fishy taste to it, dude. You know what? Try the truffle. That's like truffle. I like truffle. I don't like truffle.
Starting point is 00:15:35 I hate truffle. Dude, truffle fries are the worst. They have dogs to go find truffle. That's like a rare delicacy. Doesn't matter, but the fruit will get that taste right out of my mouth. It even smells fishy, dude. It's not fishy, dude. It's a truffle. Well, I don't want it, dude. Why do you keep eating them? They're good. You don't like trouble
Starting point is 00:15:51 fries? You're a country club kid. I now understand. I now understand why the scale keeps going up with you. Yeah, I don't like it all. You chew now, ask later. See that? No, see, I'm a... That's not how you open it, man. cheddar cheese here.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Oh, that was horrible. Oh, wow. No, dude, you're, no. See, now my mouth is cross-contaminated with everything we do. I can't even identify what I mean. Sparks, I got you right here. We're going straight to a piece of candy.
Starting point is 00:16:21 They're Mexican-produced, but extremely popular in Spain, supposedly, the jovi revocaditas. I would say I'm excited, but they're about to have, like, an avocado taste. Here's my take on Spanish food. my grandfather, as he aged, lost his taste. So he would have to put a gallon of salt, a gallon of flavor on anything he was eating
Starting point is 00:16:41 just to have a hint of taste. Oh, those looks. Is there something with the Spanish palate that they actually can't taste well? Because this is, the amount of flavor packed in per bite is insanity. Sparks. Sparks. Is that true? Just sniff it. Just sniff it. I just want you just sniff it.
Starting point is 00:16:56 Oh, dude, those are... It is true. You are correct? You think? Yeah, and you just prove it with that candy. That's the worst thing that's touched my taste bugs. Alright, let me try it. The Spanish like to spice up everything. That's insane, but is it because they can't taste very well?
Starting point is 00:17:11 I can't believe it. What is this? Don't worry about it, brother. I wouldn't do it. You're about to go to level nine and a half. Really? I wouldn't do it. I sniffed it.
Starting point is 00:17:21 I sniffed it. What is it? I wouldn't do it, dude. I'm scared. It looks like a strawberry. Clear a sinus infection. Okay. I'm going for it.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Oh. What is it? Is it crawfish? Ooh. It's chili. It's like a warhead. With chili on it. Oh, you ate it. Oh, it's good when you open it. You just got chewed up. It's like a warhead.
Starting point is 00:17:49 It's got a mango filling. You got to the mango part. That's nice. It's like you gotta earn it. It's a warhead. You gotta get through the sour and then in the middle is a delicious, sugary delight. It's nothing. It's basically a chili covered mango. Yeah, ain't nothing has touched the Knopper yet. The Knopper Oh, they're pretty good. I might take those home. I'm ready to cast my boat, boys. I'm pro-German on this when it comes to food. Did you think you were going to be pro-German before you entered into this competition?
Starting point is 00:18:15 Because I did it. In fact, Agu'll actually go a step further and say, I'm not even pro-German. I'm just anti-Spanish food. And just slightly less anti-German food. Oh, this is spicy, guys. Oh, that's a... It's made of an industrial cardboard?
Starting point is 00:18:31 I don't know. It's like rice paper and... Oh, is it sugar or not? Oh, my chip a tooth on that. What's this one called? El Almondro, crunchy almondaron. It's like literally paper on the outside. It's nasty. Like eight and a half by 11.
Starting point is 00:18:48 Then, in the middle, it's very nutty. I literally think German had that clean sweep. Like, I don't think Spanish even cracked the top of it. What kind of nut is that? almond. Really? It's a very unanimous. Very red almond.
Starting point is 00:19:01 We agree. Across the board. Across the board. Oh, I don't know this guy I mean, it all was pretty good Of course it was good Are you gonna eat yours? No, do you want it? Yeah
Starting point is 00:19:13 Hey look Santa If you're Once you're putting my stocking stuffers on Fill me some noppers in there I could use some noppers in the stocking Cody will take those chili covered watermelon Nastiness in his
Starting point is 00:19:27 And I'll take tour tickets And you'll take tour tickets That's fair trade college football playoff tickets in his stocking stuffer. Um, field level pass. It's a good time to tell the listeners that if you've tried either of these German or Spanish snacks, comment below. Let us know what a dish you didn't like.
Starting point is 00:19:44 Because I'm, uh, all of these are pretty tough to handle. You didn't even try the chips. Get a, get a bite of the truffle. No, I did the other truff. You're peer pressuring me here. You like it. You know, I'm a kids menu kid. It's the whole point of the segment.
Starting point is 00:19:58 Kids menu Kevin. It's the bar. I don't like it, dude. even smells bad. Well, yeah. Dude, that's so bad. You try a truffle. No, absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:20:12 Sparky did it. He's way bigger than you. No. Come on, do it for the pod. Yeah, it's truffle. Go. Quick. Dude.
Starting point is 00:20:21 It's like lobster. It's rare. It's lobster. It's exactly what it is. You'll never meet a guy more anti-seafood than me. Oh, my. You do hate seafood.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Bro. Bro, if you... Truffle's delicious! My wife... I didn't try the beef ones. If she ate some truffles before I went in for a kiss, I don't know if I could do it.
Starting point is 00:20:39 No, you can clear out a room. I feel like a fire-breathing dragon right now. That is like legitimately eating salami from a bag. Garlet up salami. It's so nasty. No, I'm good, brother. Thank you. Why do you keep eating them, dude?
Starting point is 00:20:51 I need the calories. You're gross, dude. I'm thinning. I now understand why everyone says America's the greatest country. because of a couple snacks. Nothing to do with the declaration, all the freedoms we enjoy, everything to do with the amount of fast food options we have
Starting point is 00:21:06 that are far superior to those. That's our set, dude. We're gonna have ants in our sled. Spanish ants. There's gonna be little German ants that migrate here. The Spanish fruits eating your skin already. Look at this. Oh, I had a mosquito bite and I kept scratching it.
Starting point is 00:21:25 That's that red 40. Dude. Wow, dude, we have derailed, but that was funny. Are we going to get into some videos, or what are we doing here? We asked, and you listened, we asked you to submit your fan submission videos being an almost athlete, and boy, did we get a bevy of videos coming our way, boys? We've got five on tap for today. And a reminder, if you want to submit a video, head to almostathletes.com.
Starting point is 00:21:53 The contact us page and submit your best almost athlete video. We're going to look at five today, grade them one through 10. and ultimately, as the years and months go by, we're going to give somebody a trophy, man, for the almost-athlete moment. All right, first up, Caden Culver. That's up, Caden. And we're not laughing at you, we're laughing with you. We've all been here.
Starting point is 00:22:13 I wonder if he's on the black team or the white team. Oh! Kate! Oh, and off the backboard, too, to make matters worse. Oh, good bounce pass, honestly, by number 10 there. Yeah, it wasn't, though, because number 10 had position to go up for the layup, and he went with a pass. Oh, how did that pass get up to his chin though?
Starting point is 00:22:31 So who's it on? Are we talking about number six? Oh, it's got to be number six who eats the basketball and then hits the undercarriage of the backboard for a turnover. What, he's just trying to save it? Yeah, off his face. I thought that's a pretty good play out of him. He's not expecting a no-looker in seventh grade B-team basketball? Play it again. Play it again.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Can we see how this possession played out? Oh! I mean, that's how the possession played out. played out. That's tough. I'm going to give this one a six for his number. I'm just watching the other guys on the screen. I mean, they are so confused. They're like, what just happened, dude? Tickets to middle school basketball games should skyrocket, man. You get to see some incredible things. The best 12 to 11 games you'll ever see with this kind of stuff going on, I'm in. It would have been better if he lost a tooth here. I'm assuming Caden didn't lose a tooth. Or broken nose. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:23:24 or a B nose. I agree with Cody. To me, it wasn't his fault. He was reacting to a quick, sharp pass that was kind of unnecessary. Yeah, sometimes your almost athlete moment isn't technically your fault. You just get caught up in it. What did it for me from a five to a sev is the fact he hit the underside of the backboard. It makes it tough. Yeah, but he's trying to save it. He is.
Starting point is 00:23:42 He's given effort, but it ultimately came back to bite him. Oh, no. Jackson, I mean, Jackson's going to have a field day with that. Oh, because we're six, seven. Oh, no. I'm tempted to change my. That's better than three sixes, though. Who knows?
Starting point is 00:23:57 Chill. Good story. Can we get an eraser? It's such a low-budget show. We don't even have an eraser. Fum it. No, I don't like getting my hands dirty. Sausage guy.
Starting point is 00:24:07 I don't want to use his thumb. That's what kind of eraser right there. Let me know if you need an eraser. You thumbed it? Yeah, dude. All right. Let's not eat a Spanish snack. It's going to have Expo.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Caden, Hope all as well, brother. Thanks for the submission. Yeah, I appreciate it. It takes a lot of courage to submit your almost athlete moment. You know? Absolutely, dude. I have no idea where August is going, but just the still picture of the pole vault, Matt, here is...
Starting point is 00:24:30 August Mayberry. What's a great name, by the way. August Mayberry? It could be Mabary. Let's play it. Man, this feels a little young to be doing it. Oh, Polvovolt. Pull vault.
Starting point is 00:24:41 He's going to get it in it. Lanz it, sticks it. Oh! Oh, no. He hit himself in the head. It wasn't where I was expecting. He missed the plant. Dude, it's the sounds.
Starting point is 00:24:53 If you just close your eyes and listen to the sounds, you can hear the all. Almost athlete. This guy had no intent of going up on that pole. Watch. August is taking a summer break here. Right when he feels the tension, he lets go and just lets it hit his head. He's like, nope, I'm not doing it.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Look, he lets go of it. You're right. I think it slides up a set. It's not a 10. You're calling out a self-service almost athlete here? I'm going eight because he, that was a fake. I'm not doing it. A fake eight?
Starting point is 00:25:19 Seven. Tell that to August. It was better than Caden's because he got popped in the face pretty good there. but I agree with you. I think he bailed. I think he was trying to bail. Yeah. I think he got scared.
Starting point is 00:25:30 He's at the 500 meter race after this, and he's like, I don't want to be hurt. I kind of want to watch the world burn. I was hoping he'd go up before his almost athlete moment. The fact it was ground level, six for me. Okay. That's two. That's two.
Starting point is 00:25:42 That's two, six, seven. Cool. First name, too. That made me laugh. What we're looking at is bound to be gold. We're in a, we're on the high bars in the gym. Hillary.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Hillary. Blatherwick, high bars. Play the video. She's swinging. Hillary is swinging. Hillary is trying to go all the way. Oh, Hillary. Oh, a little slip grip.
Starting point is 00:26:08 They're too much laughing. Maybe for an elite, almost athlete moment. Here's what I think. These places will rent out their gyms to birthday parties. Look at that fall, though. Did she folded. Look at a lawn chair. That is what folding like a lawn chair looks like.
Starting point is 00:26:23 You do that at our age. That's three weeks of sore. right there. I mean, she eats her kneecaps. She eats her kneecaps. That's a grade 5 hammy tear. If that is a, if like that's, she's in gym, like to try and get better, that's a high number.
Starting point is 00:26:38 If this is just a birthday party, she's like, oh, I want to see if I can do it. It's not as, doesn't hold as much weight when you have your almost athlete moment in a Chuckie cheese. Do you agree? Yeah. I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying instead of an actual playing field. I'll go nine. Nine. She folded like a chair.
Starting point is 00:26:53 She did, but August. August was better. You like August bail job? It's a seven. It's purely a seven. Are we going to tie? Okay. A good range of numbers there. All right.
Starting point is 00:27:03 All right. Baseball, this should be good. And we got Matthias Moore. Coaches pitch. We got Little League baseball. Oh, no. This is like beer league. This is like adult.
Starting point is 00:27:14 That's a big boy. No way he gets me. His fingers are twerk. Oh. Yeah, that's it for me. All righty. That is so bad. done that? That is so bad.
Starting point is 00:27:27 That's a tenor for me. That is an almost. You square around a bunting and then you... Look. And here's the deal. People that don't play baseball think bunnings the easiest thing. It's not. It brings in this play. It brings in the opportunity to deflect it in your nose bone. I hope Matthias can still see
Starting point is 00:27:42 out of one eye because that looked painful. It's funny you said that because when we talked to Travis Jankowski at Ranger's Spring Training, he said the most scared he ever was in his life, squaring around to bunt against Eraldus Chapman. I can completely understand why. As a guy who had lost this tooth. Yes.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Do you have a baseball? Can you show us? Can you take it out anymore? No, I can't take it out anymore because we spent thousands of dollars to get an implant. We did or you did? Well, on the company's behalf. The money I earned through the company.
Starting point is 00:28:07 Messiah, that's, can I watch that one more time? One more time. A little slow-mo when it makes contact, too. I really want to see what happened here. He was expecting, I think. He's expecting a lower pitch. It came high.
Starting point is 00:28:19 He bundled it up. Well, see, this is what happens. You don't stab it. You got to catch it with your bat. And look, he gets. stabby with it, and he just barrels it right up to his face. You could slow it down here, watch the ball come in. It's where you just keep the hands back and catch it with your back.
Starting point is 00:28:32 I think that's a ball too. I think that's high in the zone. I don't even think that's a strike. Oh, dude. Did he go straight face or did it deflect? No, it deflects off the bat. That's what I'm saying. See how he got stabby with the bat?
Starting point is 00:28:42 If he just lets it get to his barrel, he's fine. It's the fact he went out and tried to need it. Did it hit the helmet first? I just hope it didn't hit his mouth. As a guy who literally... I can't see. Look at the helmet. Look at the helmet.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Go right off the bat here. boom. Boom to boom. It does go helmet first. Oh, dude, he might have got lucky. That just hits Bill of the helmet. No, no, I think it hits his. No, it didn't.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Bill brought it to his nose, brother. His nose is about to look like the Mississippi River. But it wasn't a direct hit. So to me, I'm taking off a point. I still keep my 10. That's nasty. It's a bunt, too. I already raised, so I got to...
Starting point is 00:29:16 You got to be able to lay down a bunt. That's an almost athlete moment. That is the definition of an almost athlete moment. And I was there. Like I said, my mom was. personally putting us last but not least oh I'm excited
Starting point is 00:29:28 we have Benedict Sturrick we have one late edition yeah oh yeah yeah breaking news
Starting point is 00:29:36 we might have this is the all name team between August and Matthias and Benedict these AI generated people
Starting point is 00:29:43 they are these are these are sure of videos Oh no break away hey I thought it was
Starting point is 00:29:54 going to be the mistunk yeah I thought it's not it's not a dunk. That's pretty funny. The dunk is an almost-athlete moment, and then this guy...
Starting point is 00:30:05 Plenty it's not even close. That's a double almost athlete moment. Who's he going to? There's no one even around. He's just saving. Dude, his players aren't even trying. They're not like... He's just saving it.
Starting point is 00:30:15 He's getting brownie points right in front of the bench going into the crowd. The first kid, I mean, if you're attempting a dunk on a 10-foot goal in a live game and you don't get, like, rim-stuffed. Like, that's okay. I'm cool with that. I'd love for him to finish it. Dude off two feet, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:30 It just hurts when your almost athlete moment is set up by your teammates' incompetence. Makes this kid look foolish. Yeah, I agree. It's a six for me. So as of now, Matthias is in the lead, but we have a late edition. Bonus clip. Oh, the bone clip we're about to see from DPHQ2. Is this from Sean?
Starting point is 00:30:50 This has to be Goose himself. Editor Sean put on a show. Watch this. Swish, side backboard, rebound. Is he in bounds? I don't know. Traveled. All behind the backboard, over the tall. When will it end? That's real. That's the craziest thing I've seen. And I'm scared to put that on the podcast because here's the deal. It doesn't represent us. The dude has a girlfriend now. And he won't when she sees that. She's out. He will never be in a squad games. There's a rumor we actually had to move to DPHU3
Starting point is 00:31:28 because of this moment right here. Look at that. A flying Dutchman. He contaminated the office. Look how he saves it out of bounds. Yeah, he goes from a flying Dutchman. Okay, look, then the ball hits lines. It's already out.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Then his feet are both out. Look. No, he saved it. Oh, no. He saved it. Now he's out. He saved that, dude. A sidestepper.
Starting point is 00:31:48 A sidestep triple. I don't even know what this hits. It's behind the backboard and somehow comes back to him. Oh. Out of the downs again Dude, the fact that they were able to pull this clip And look at G-lit
Starting point is 00:32:01 Just dancing in the bag Just being like, dude, this guy is Because they see this every day Horrible And this is why we have security cameras Not for the trick shots Just to watch full-blown incompetence By goo himself
Starting point is 00:32:13 See, I don't think this was ever an almost athlete moment This was just full-on non-athlete It's prime Sean Yeah Like that's a tuba player No offense to the tuba players Like no way he played sports in college, high school.
Starting point is 00:32:25 Two of the players have to carry a large instrument. I'm going to go clarinet. Yeah, it's quite true. I can't give him the best almost athlete. I want to. I did. Employees don't count. Well, the good news is employees are not eligible to win the prize. Oh, then if that's the case.
Starting point is 00:32:39 The clips the clip. Well, if he was eligible, we got a first ballot Hall of Famer right here in Goh. I gave him an 11. The fact he continued on is just what's incredible. He knows. Sean knows. He has the self-awareness to know, hey, I am not a good hooper. I think he doesn't realize how bad it was because he doesn't play a lot.
Starting point is 00:32:58 So in like his mind, that's just a regular day. That's just like, I'm going to go shoot, sidebackboard, back at the backboard. Oh, I missed everything. Like, it's like nothing. But do you think in his own head, Sean's thinking that he's James Harden? Oh, dude, in his head, he's counting down to three, two, whew. We've got to sell him. As a really good friend of mine, Sean, you're not James Hardin, brother.
Starting point is 00:33:17 James Hardin's a crazy. He's not Sean Bradley. No, yeah. Good thing the employees aren't eligible to win because that guy, Yeah, what's G-Little doing in the bag? Deserves a trophy. He can't watch. He can't even pick his head up and watch what's going on because it's so nasty.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Next up, a big-name guest, Glenn Powell, going to join the set. And this room's only big enough for the three of us, Jones. See you, bud.

Starting point is 00:35:11 secret? Man, you give me the tips, boys. What's going on? I mean, this can't be a compliment off. We got to do something else here. Well, let's get right into it then. We're Aggies here. Yep. I know you're a... All right. Now it stops. Now the comment. No, no, no. I'm very aware of y'all's Aggie heritage. Congratulations on a great season, by the way. You're a diehard U.T. fan, you would say. I am a diehard UDGYT fan. You've got the Austin Connection. They even played some lacrosse and football down there at Westwood. Is that correct?
Starting point is 00:35:41 Yep, that's correct. Between Westwood and West Lake, you know, Austin gets pretty difficult there. But yeah, some lacrosse and football, we're obviously called Almost Athletes, our podcast. Do you ever have a moment where you had an almost athlete moment where you quickly realized maybe sport in my thing and acting route was the better choice? Yeah, you know what? I have the best profession for being just athletic enough to be able to pull off these things, but not athletic enough where my life would have taken me on a different path. You know, I had this one thing when I was like really, really young.
Starting point is 00:36:16 I love golf, right? So I grew up playing golf with my whole family's big golfers. And I used to do like competitive golf tournaments when I was like, you know, 10, 11, 12, something like that. And there was this one tournament in Austin where I was like playing. for like the city championship. I don't know if maybe it was at Lions or something like that, but it was, of course, in Austin. And I basically was like in the lead with like two holes ago.
Starting point is 00:36:40 So I'm on 17. And I completely blew the lead, right? Like just had one of those like epic meltdowns that like my entire game fell apart. And I went from first to fourth in two holes. And as they were giving me my not even a first place trophy, a fourth place plaque. I had like a true meltdown crash out moment where I stole a golf cart,
Starting point is 00:37:06 took off across the golf course, and I hit up in a tree for hours while the entire tournament looked for me. And I remember even like seconds after getting up in this tree and I like see people like below the tree like be like, Glenn, glad, where are you, man? And I'm literally sit up in this tree
Starting point is 00:37:22 and I'm like, I can't get down. I think I live here now. Like I'm not going anywhere. I was like, you know, it's like I've come too far. I'm in the tree for the next few days. I'm going to be here for a while. But that was like one of those moments where I was like, you know, maybe I'm just not meant for competitive sports.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Maybe being an actor, competitive enough for me. But, you know, maybe I would have crashed out if I went any higher. I love that. Yeah, fair to say, once you're hiding in the tree, that's pretty almost-athlety. That's about as almost-athlety as we've had. But I'm not letting you off the hook too easily, Glenn, with the Texas talk.
Starting point is 00:37:57 status of the 40 acres currently. How are we feeling about the football team currently going forward? All things orange. All things orange. Look, I mean, I got to say we've had some nail biters in the last couple weeks. I mean, I've been at quite a few games.
Starting point is 00:38:14 It's one of the best parts about not working right now during football season, doing Chad Powers, you know, and doing Running Man is I can actually build football into my press schedule and count it as work, which has been awesome. But I got to say, you know, I love Sark. I think Sark is a hell of a coach. You know, I think on both sides of the ball, I think Texas is really strong. I think it's been a bit of
Starting point is 00:38:39 a battle to kind of make those things sort of like be married together at the same time. But, I mean, you've even seen, you know, I think the thing that makes Texas really special and the reason why, you know, we still have a hell of a hell of a record is that, you know, when one side of the ball is sort of having a slower game, you know, the other side picks it up. And you can see on special teams like, you know, nibble it. Just, you know, on these like these crazy punt returns, like these, these crucial moments, you know, Texas always seems to pull it out. So we got some serious games, but I'm feeling really, I'm feeling really confident about, you know, our postseason chances here.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Got a two-parter for you. One, on a level of one to McConaughey, where are we in Texas his fandom and two, do you get the same treatment as old Matthew McConaughey? You get the sidelines and the practice and all that? I mean, we all are talking about the minister of culture. There's no higher title. I do not have a title. I do not have a parking spot. The reality is I am a massive Texas fan. I have been born and raised in Austin, Texas. I grew up there. My grandparents went to Texas. My parents, my cousins, sister.
Starting point is 00:39:59 It's like, so I bleed burnt orange. And, you know, the happiest place you'll see me is in Austin, Texas at DKR. But, you know, the reality is that, you know, I'm still earning my spot here, you know, on the sidelines. You know, McConaughey's got locker room privileges. He's got sideline privileges. I'm just very happy being allowed in the stadium, getting to bring my friends to experience games. They're now letting me shoot the cannon, which is great.
Starting point is 00:40:30 So it's a game of inches, guys. I'm slowly making my way there. That's a big deal. That is. To be able to fire off the cannon. I'm convinced that McConaughey is like two to three years away from a fandom from getting snaps. I'm thoroughly convinced he's going to find his way out on the football field eventually.
Starting point is 00:40:46 I'm the guys like fully toxic talking X's and O's at this point, you know, at halftime. which is wild. So he's, the guy knows what he's talking about, though. I mean, McConaughey loves it, you know, and he's been amazing for the University of Texas and amazing for the program. And also, I mean, you know, it's even fun,
Starting point is 00:41:03 is like, you know, counting McConaughey as a pal now, it's like, even like when I went to go do college game day, you know, he's my first call, just like when you're representing the University of Texas, when you're sort of a little bit more out in front rather than just sort of an anonymous fan when you're sort of a little bit more, you know, I'd say, you know, on the Jumbotron.
Starting point is 00:41:21 And, you know, he's a good guy to talk to about all that stuff. And he's done it right. He's been, he's been amazing. He's a professor. He's, he's as accomplished as they come. They're, there are definitely a worse guys I could study from. Would you say that he's kind of been a mentor in the acting space for you? Or do you lean on him in that?
Starting point is 00:41:37 Matthew really believes in the long, you know, you've watched the trajectory of his career, how many different, you know, detours that's kind of taken along the way. I mean, he's covered, you know, all the bases. He's worked with some of the great filmmakers. But he's also like, you know, Master of the rom-com genre. There's a little, you can see, there's probably a lot of connective tissue that you could find there.
Starting point is 00:41:57 But I find the best part about Matthew is sort of like the poetry he finds in all of it. He doesn't force anything. Matthew doesn't try to pretend like he has control over anything. Because in this business, you just don't have control over a lot. You know, all you can do is, you know, work hard, treat people well, and just, you know, hope the ride takes you a long way. So he's been good on that, you know, just for kind of breathing through all the,
Starting point is 00:42:24 the unexpected detours. Yeah, so you just got done filming Running Man, and then you've also had some pretty big stunts in Top Gun. Heard you actually got your pilots license for that movie. Is that true? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So when we were shooting Top Gun, I mean, crews put together an entire flight program for all of us.
Starting point is 00:42:43 So we started in the extra 300. Actually, we started the, we started in the Cessna and 172. and then we went to X-300, then the L-39, and then the F-18. And, you know, that was sort of building up G tolerance, right? So, like, when you're actually in the F-18, the Gs are extremely heavy. I mean, they'll make you pass out. I put some of my friends in the back of F-18s, and it's just you go to sleep immediately. It's just too much if you don't get your body used to it.
Starting point is 00:43:11 So after that, I mean, you're on the, you're on these military bases with the best pilots in the world who are able to do, you know, aerobatics and the most dynamic things, fly low, level at, you know, the speed of sound. So it's hard not to become obsessed with aviation after shooting something like Top Gun Mavericks. So, you know, I afterwards, I had so many F-18 hours, you know, I was like, you know, like, what, we got to finish this thing out. And so, yeah, during, during COVID was especially an amazing time to where, you know, how much of else was happening in Hollywood. I had, I had nothing but time up in the air to just go, you know, fly to Catalina for lunch or Santa Barbara, take my friends to Vegas. It was, it was great. So now it's a little busier now.
Starting point is 00:43:54 You know, it's a little harder to stay current when I'm on the road all the time. But it's fun when I, you know, I just got to put work down. And now I'm starting to get back out there, which has been fun and get, you know, new ratings and all that stuff. So it's been, it's been an amazing, it's very cathartic. It's almost like meditation up there. It's like when you have something that you can kind of focus on, you know, and do up there, just go listen to some music and kind of find yourself in a new place out of a, know where it's just, it's just amazing. Dude, I was blown away by some of the stunts. I saw you pull off,
Starting point is 00:44:27 obviously, with your sports background. How much do you credit your sports background and to be able to pull off some of those stunts? And what's the scariest moment you've had on set? I think the thing that I've learned from other buddies who have done action movies is that if you're going to do an action movie, you know, even though it's choreography, right? You know, it's like, on Chad Powers, like, even though I'm, I know the hit is coming. you're still taking the hit, right? Even though I know I'm falling off of something, you know, when it's coming, or I'm getting yanked off something,
Starting point is 00:45:00 or something's colliding, or I'm taking a knee to the stomach. It's like, you know it's coming. It's still sucks, right? So just because it's stunts doesn't mean there's no impact involved, doesn't mean there's no pain involved. And I think what you really want is the audience is really smart. They can tell the difference between when something is CGI, or you're using a double, or it's face.
Starting point is 00:45:21 and something when it's real. And the guy that you're following, the guy that you're cheering for in the movie is actually taking those hits and delivering those hits. So it's something I wanted to do, you know, from the get-go, the people that I admire
Starting point is 00:45:35 kind of never take those shortcuts. And I don't know how anybody does an action movie and doesn't have any sort of athletic ability. Like it would be pretty hard for me. I mean, the amount of things that you have to be thinking of any given time, it's like running a play in football. Right?
Starting point is 00:45:50 You know, it's like there's obviously the execution, there's timing, your brain's sort of operating at a different level, but then there's just sort of physical instinct. But, you know, if you're running down a hallway and things are exploding around you on a certain cue, you know, and you're memorizing performance and you have to hit a certain thing, you have to hit at a distance away from camera, you know, and you're trying not to get hit or hurt, and sometimes things go off on timings that you're not expecting. Like, there's a high degree of awareness and physical, the physical ability that, you're I just don't know how you do it if you're not an athlete.
Starting point is 00:46:23 So, yeah, I was lucky I had that background. Again, like, yeah, I'm still the guy that hides out in the tree. You know, I'm never, I'm not, I'm not, not, not going pro, but it's enough, it's enough to get by. Glenn, from two Texans to another, appreciate you, cowboy. Best luck in the future. Thank you for your time, dude, and congratulations on running, man. Appreciate you guys. Thank you guys, Texas forever.
Starting point is 00:46:53 All right, well, special welcome to Graham and Jackson. is back for another episode. Sorry, Sparks. He worked his way into this one. Yeah, I didn't get a text, an email, a slack, a touch on the shoulder would have worked. But I will say, new hair who dis? Looks good, dude.
Starting point is 00:47:09 It added some years to you. I needed it bad. Is that a chain? Sorry to interrupt you, Gares. Is that a little chain, change? It is. Good for you. Oh, bling.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Well, first of all, look at the fit on this kid, dude. This guy just turned 21 today, and he rocks the dad fit better than all of us. Oh, yeah. Yeah, man. You're kind of entering your prime. I should be dressing like this. You think 21's where you enter your prime? This is how I should.
Starting point is 00:47:35 What? 21's where you enter your prime? I feel like you're out of that. No, he's just an early arrivers when I'm making my point. He's like, Wimbin, Wimbingiama. He's a little ahead of his time. This guy's so mature for his guy. Yeah, he is mature.
Starting point is 00:47:46 Really? I mean, look at the ball cap even. Before we get into the Gen Z segment, we continue to hire just, you know, phenomenal people. I do want to give a special shout out. I agree. This is not about you, Graham. Oh, yeah. I want to give a special shout out to our reception to Shanda.
Starting point is 00:48:01 She makes the best food I've ever, I've ever eaten, I think. Homemade, right? Homemade sourdough. I don't know what these are, but it's like pumpkin, cinnamon, chocolate chip. Incredible. That's been one of the cons of the team expansion. Has been just the in-your-face sweets that are available. Currently, we celebrate each employee's birthday.
Starting point is 00:48:24 And it feels like we're a cookie cake or pumpkin spice lattes by the day at this point. It's a dangerous. Good Jones, man. You know, he didn't wake up like that. Yeah, but when you get it homemade, though, from Shanda, who? Holy cow. She came in clutch. Shut out, Shanda.
Starting point is 00:48:39 I want to release a dad vest like this thing, though. A little sweater action. Put, like, a little DP in the corner there. I rock that every day. You can take a selfie in the mirror and submit that as you're almost athlete. Oh, yeah. You're screaming almost athlete. But you also scream, like, honor.
Starting point is 00:48:54 3.8 GPA. Well, that's what we need. Now that you say that spark, let's do a little intro in the gram. You just turned 21. You did just drop out of college. Yeah, fresh drop out. I did.
Starting point is 00:49:06 To pursue your ultimate dream of being video production. What is your ultimate dream? Chad Terrell's job? Yeah, I don't know. I would like eventually to maybe direct some stuff. Direct. Teach, you know, bring up the next generation.
Starting point is 00:49:20 What would you say to the kids right now, you know, because you were, you were 12 years old like nine years ago which is kind of crazy. What would you say to a 12 year old about like what you want to teach him? Like is college the way? You know, I'd say it really depends on the person
Starting point is 00:49:37 but like for Jackson and I. Yeah. College is a scam. Oh wow. I don't know if I can say that. No, you can. Heavy take. That's heavy dude.
Starting point is 00:49:48 If you're a doctor, lawyer, any like big thing like that, definitely college for sure. What about a trick-shot guy? Trickshot guy, college is not the way. But yeah, I mean, like college, I went there for a year, networked, did all the things I need to do, now I'm here, life's great, don't really need it, don't really need a degree. The reason why we brought both of you guys on is because y'all just moved in together. We're roommates.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Yeah, we did. Kind of like college. One would say that. I mean, the way I kind of explain dude perfect to my friends, I don't know it, I'm like, think of a fraternity without like any of the crazy stuff. It's like, dude just being dudes, playing sports, having fun, recording super fun videos. Like, you know what I mean? It's like college. It really is.
Starting point is 00:50:32 You didn't really answer the question? Yeah. So how was living together? Are we still in the honeymoon phase? I would say so. We're still figuring it out. We're figuring no fights. You'll have your first fight.
Starting point is 00:50:43 We're not arguing yet. But I mean, we're figuring it out. Yeah. So, I mean, we don't really cook. I actually, now that I say that, remember the rotten egg story. we were talking about how I had those eggs in my apartment for over a year and you went told me to open them. I went to open them and they were spoiled. It was, it smelled disgusting. I asked Chat JBT, JBT, T, B, T, I'm really hungry right now. Can I eat it and be
Starting point is 00:51:09 fine? It's like, hey, I get you're really hungry, but it's probably not in your best interest to eat. So I went with ramen noodles instead. Yeah, probably smart. I think if your eggs are in the fridge for like longer than six months, we should go ahead. six months? Why, he went a year. Well, wouldn't they be like a 165 days within? Guys, there's an expiration date on the bomb.
Starting point is 00:51:29 Yeah, there are expiration dates. And you should follow those. I don't want to. Look, I don't want to. Look, I, we can't keep talking about this because your chance of getting a wife
Starting point is 00:51:37 is continuing to go down. Hey, I cut the blonde off, though. My chances had to go up after that. Hey. Okay, okay. What's the Friday night look like for you boys? We recently have been picking up, we have a streaming set up now,
Starting point is 00:51:52 and we've also been trying to learn how to DJ. Oh, yeah. So, and then. DJ board. Yeah, they're in the figure it out page of life. Well, if you follow the Instagram stories, you might see, but we've been cooking it up. Who's, uh, what's the DJ name?
Starting point is 00:52:04 How can the people follow along? Oh, gosh. DJ double vision? We're still working on it. Yeah, we're still working on. Yeah, I think we could do better on the name. G&J, Graham and Jacks. G.I. Joe. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:52:15 Let's work on the name. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. We're working on it. Comment below. All right, boys. I think it's time to play real or fake. Z slang.
Starting point is 00:52:23 You guys ready? Let's do it. I mean, are we ready? I guess so. We're about to find out. Hit me. All right, I'm going to give you two terms. One's fake and one's real.
Starting point is 00:52:31 Okay. Okay. Your first two words are narped and motion. Oh, that's real. Which one? Bro. You didn't even choose one. Those are real words.
Starting point is 00:52:40 No, the real word. Narped. What is it? Motion or morphed? No, it's motion or narped. Which one is like a term we use in our everyday lives? Yeah, I'm going to go with G. NARped.
Starting point is 00:52:50 Feels like. No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no. Is this like one of those things where it's like, narped feels so Gen Z that it's like just made up in motion is actually what they use? Yeah, I'm going to go Narped because it feels a little more out of left field. What does it mean? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Narped? I'm going to leave this up to U.G. I'm, uh... Bro, I'm 38, dude. I'm the furthest thing away from Gen Z. Dude, I'm going to have to go... Narped. I agree.
Starting point is 00:53:19 You're wrong. So, Narp's not a word. Motion. How do you use motion? How does Ginze use motion? Like, dude, that boy has motion. That's how he does it. Oh, that's what it is. Yeah. That boy got motion. Like, he got motion. Like, you got motion.
Starting point is 00:53:34 What was the hand sign? Twin is like, that's your Twizzy. That's your, that's your boy. Yeah, like, you got motion twin. You got motion twin. But like, but like motion's like a good thing. Yeah, so if like flow. Yeah, he's making moves.
Starting point is 00:53:48 He's in motion. So swag, is that the new swag? I feel like swag would be equivalent to aura But motion is like Like he's active He's like he's got motion So think of someone who walks in the room And he's already got plans made
Starting point is 00:54:03 Like he's like hey Y'all chill here for a second I'm gonna go get everything set up Ah that boy got motion All right Or like he's making moves You're making money moves Yep
Starting point is 00:54:12 He's a leader Yeah Like he's out in the community Doing what he needs to do All right dude Okay You got motion Like you want motion
Starting point is 00:54:20 You welcome motion. Motion equals good. Got it. All right. I knew it, dude. NARP sounded too. Yeah. Here are your next two words.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Canned and ratio. Racial. I can take this one, G. ratio, for sure. Oh, you, I shouldn't have gone that one. Is it right? Yeah, you got it. Rationos like when you
Starting point is 00:54:41 you dog somebody. Not really. You get ratioed? Come on, Sparks. I know it's up that alley. When you flake on someone? No. Oh, oh, oh, you're like a social media
Starting point is 00:54:52 for like when the comments are more than the reposts. Yep. Well, no. Something like that. It's so, so say you just have a steaming hot take. It's like, dude, this take is garbage. Kind of like how college is a scam. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Yeah. So say I'm on social media, I'm like, ah, guys, I tweeted out, college is a scam. Someone under me, ratio, ratio bozo. Their comment is probably going to get more likes. Dude. I have officially gotten ratioed. Bro.
Starting point is 00:55:19 So it's when it has more Hold on, hold on, hold on. I don't even know what that means. I still don't know what that means. You post something and I disagree with it so I ratio you. It's like the comments or the other people
Starting point is 00:55:29 agree more than the person actually posting. Yeah. Got it. So it's like, oh, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, bad take. It's like bro got ratioed like everybody else
Starting point is 00:55:40 isn't thinking of what he's. Why don't you just say like, dude, that's an L take? Because the ratio is like a percentage thing. So like when you're voting on an Instagram story, it's like, this is 99% and the other option is 1%. So it's like they got ratio.
Starting point is 00:55:53 I got a question for you. When a basketball team wins 65 to 63, do you call that a win or do you call that the other team out ratio the other team? I'm just curious. It's just a win, bro. So it's way too hard into this. Okay. Just ease your way into it, dude.
Starting point is 00:56:09 I just feel like. You just have to have an open mind. I want a ratio y'all so bad right now. You're uncalicious. I'm sorry. Bro, I'm more than uncalicious. Call me grandpa. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Call me grams. G. G. G. G. Ration. Go for it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:25 Give us one. It's an L take, by the way. Here's two more Gen Z terms. Which one's real and which one's fake? We got one. Stick drift. Or two? In my gloop arc?
Starting point is 00:56:36 In my glute arc? In my gloop arc. There's no way that second one is real. Stick what? Stick drift. Yeah, I feel like I've heard stick drift and a little giggle boy over there just kind of giving it away. And then the other one was what?
Starting point is 00:56:50 In my gloop arc. You know? Here's my, if you want my absolute honest take on this whole segment, you know what my fear is, dude? What's that? I feel like the Gen Ziers are going to take the fake slang that these guys are coming up with and it's going to be real. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:07 In my gloop arc? We don't even, that could be the real one. Is the scary? Could be. There ain't no way. Give me stick drift. Stick drift. Final answer.
Starting point is 00:57:16 You got it. Yeah. Yes. Do you have any idea what that means? Stick drift? Sparky has to know. You're only sticks every day. You are. Stick drift.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Oh, stick drift. That's when you're gaming with the boys. Yes. I was instantly thinking manual while you pulling the break. You're gaming with the boys and then you drift to another party. No. You're switching up games? No.
Starting point is 00:57:36 You're stick drifting. It's, bro, Sparky, you know it. What are your sticks? What are your sticks? Remote. You're PlayStation controller. You're two, your two joysticks. Joysticks.
Starting point is 00:57:46 So think about it this way. You're playing Cod or you're playing Fortnite and your screen just starts moving because you got stick drift. Your controller's broken. I have this actually right now on MLV the show where my PCI slowly goes up because I... Yeah, I need it's time to get new sticks.
Starting point is 00:58:02 Okay. But has that ever happened you IRL? Oh yeah. In the last week it's happened. Yeah, that one's fine with me. My light, like I got stick drift right now. I do. You're just veering off in the wrong direction.
Starting point is 00:58:12 Honestly, that's fine though, because you accurately described something. Yeah, like I'm okay with that. I'm okay with that slang. So, Garrett, I would love for you to use it in a sentence. Yo, Sparks, bro, first of all, you got motion. But I also want to tell you your stick drifting, dude. Thanks, Racial.
Starting point is 00:58:36 Yeah, I feel uncomfortable with that. Dude, I do, bro. I don't know if I like to say like. That's so good. I love this so much. Golly, that fires me up. Let's run it back. Hey, let's see how much influence we have with the Gen Ziers.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Okay. What if we got in my glup arc? Is that what it was? Yeah. In my glup arc, like, it goes into the vocabulary of the Gen Zs. I have no idea what it would mean, but in my gloop arc. Let the people decide. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:04 That's fun. Comment below what do you think it would mean. Let's keep it appropriate. Mm-hmm. Okay, boys, y'all are two and one. Doing fairly good right now. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:59:11 Next two words, your first word is John. Your next word is crumpled. John pork? Well, sounds like a pig that just got slaughtered. Yeah, sounds like an unidentifiable pig. Like John...
Starting point is 00:59:28 Hang on, hang on, hang on. Yeah. I mean, I'm gonna go with that one. There's no way. What's the other one? There's no way. Bro, we gave it away. How did he guess that?
Starting point is 00:59:38 Bro. I don't even know what you guessed, but obviously is correct. Did you actually not know what that is? I have no idea, brother. John pork? Holy cow. John Pork is a pig that just got slaughtered.
Starting point is 00:59:48 Buy Tim Cheese. He got Swiss cheesed. There is lore to it. There's internet lore. John Pork would be the person that calls your phone every day. You're like, who's calling? Who is it? It's John Pork.
Starting point is 01:00:01 He's always ringing your line. So it's like scam likely? Could be. But no, his picture pops up. His picture pops up. Who's? John Pork. Who's John Pork?
Starting point is 01:00:11 Who's John Pork? Look him up. Yeah, pull that boy up. Pull that boy up. There's a lot of John's I know. John Wall. But there was a tragedy that happened. John Elway.
Starting point is 01:00:18 We're going to look at what John Pork looks like. JP? There he is. John Pork's calling you. My main man. Whoa. John Pork's got motion. I don't know if he does.
Starting point is 01:00:28 And John Pork is dead? He got Swiss cheesed. By Tim Cheese. Tim Cheese, Swiss cheesed him. Can we see a picture of Tim Cheese? It was a sad thing. It was a sad day on the internet. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:38 Is Tim related to Chuckie? This was a big deal, by the way. Oh, yeah. He's from the same family tree as Chuckie. Yeah. You know, up there, Fortnite, Tim Cheese versus John Pork. Yeah. The greats.
Starting point is 01:00:48 I don't know if you can see it in my face. I can see the face. I'm not even looking at you, G. I'm so confused right now. Hey, you guessed it though. That was a lot. Dude, that was electric. That's a good thing. Dude, again, like, I don't go to, like, chick filet with my kiddos and, like, something happens, and I have to make a meme out of it. I'm sorry, we have fun with things in our lives.
Starting point is 01:01:11 How did he guess it, though? Yeah. Are you guys a crazy? I don't think he actually guessed it. You're acting like he guessed it. Well, I said it was a pig that got slaughtered. He's a pig that got slaughtered. But that's not what it means, is it?
Starting point is 01:01:21 Well, when you say you get, okay, Swiss cheese, what would you assume getting Swiss cheese mean? Swiss cheese, man. Swiss cheese. You got holes in you. You got shot up, dude. You got shot up, bro. Unfortunately, he got taken out.
Starting point is 01:01:35 He got shot up. Like, he got Swiss cheesed, like. Yeah. What's provolone? You know, we just call that murdered, you know. Yeah. Yeah. Swiss cheese is.
Starting point is 01:01:46 Okay, well, hang on. This is a good one to go into. Yeah. We got two more. Canned or looks maxing? Canned or looks maxing? I mean, if it was canned, it would be like fired, right? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:58 But if it was looks maxing, it would be like... You're maximizing your looks, like your get-up, your fed was really like that way. Like, you're like, you're peeking. Like, dude, I can't look. I can't look better than this, dude. I'm looks maxing. I like that one. You?
Starting point is 01:02:12 Can just feels too... Too basic, too. elementary for these guys. They don't like to say basic stuff. They like attention. They're attention seekers. Let's go looks maxing. Let's go looks maxing.
Starting point is 01:02:23 Wow. You got it. Good work. Yes. Is it what I was describing? You were there. You're maximizing your looks. You're having a great day.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Fit wise. You look good. The hair looks good. Like you feel untouchable. Correct. Well, it's not, it's the journey on looking untouchable, correct? So think of like whenever I brought up mogging, like you, you mugged him or whatever. That means you
Starting point is 01:02:46 you look better than him. Correct. You're ugly because you don't have that aura. Looks maxing. You got no motion. Looks maxing is the process. That's the process of it. So you got to look max to then move into the motion phase to then moved into the aura phase.
Starting point is 01:03:04 Correct. I mean, dude, you're, the mugged phase. So think of it this way. Looks maxing is the friends you made along the way that's good. Mogging. It's about the friends you made along the way. It's the journey. It's for the love of the game. Looks maxing.
Starting point is 01:03:18 Getting from A to B to the mog stage. Like Zoolander. Yes. Zoolander. You know what Zoolander is? Yes. Zulander. He's luxemaxing.
Starting point is 01:03:26 What was the name of his? Blue. Blue steel. Blue steel. Holy steel. That's blue maxing. That looks maxing. That's mogging.

Starting point is 01:03:38 Yeah. I'm sorry. We know ball. You guys do know ball. You guys do know ball, dude. maybe I underestimated this Gen Z crowd. Your last and final word.
Starting point is 01:03:46 Okay. D1 crash out or hang glide. D1 crash out. Yeah, D1 crash out. Final answer. Maybe y'all are tapped in. Dude, we're...
Starting point is 01:03:56 Maybe it's me. Dude, the unc. It's just, I'm like, I got motion, brother. Okay. What does it mean? What does it mean? Oh, uh, what was the word?
Starting point is 01:04:08 D1. Do you want crash out? I mean, it's kind of like what y'all are doing right what crashing out of college bro we're locked in
Starting point is 01:04:18 we're not crashing out no uh do you want crash out athlete that gets injured no is that where maybe he doesn't know no maybe you're set up for success no that is definitely not it

Starting point is 01:05:00 Racial. This hurts. At one point, my life, you were my goat. Dude, I know, but every goat goes away. I got father time, brother. Yeah. It's okay, dude. Father time waits on nobody.
Starting point is 01:05:10 It's okay, dude. Like, dude, you will get ratioed. You got to accept it. You got to accept it. The people that don't accept Father Time, those are the ones that get ratioed. Those are the ones that get ratio, dude. They have no motion. Those are the ones that ended up Swiss cheesy.
Starting point is 01:05:21 Thanks for blessing us with the wisdom. Yeah. You're welcome, John Pork. Oh, yes. Golly. What does it mean? D1 crash out. You got to go back to the roots.
Starting point is 01:05:33 You know. D1. Take away the D1. Think about, think about crash out. Crash out. So, do you want me to use it in a sentence? You want me to use it? in sentence. Yeah, please use it in a sentence.
Starting point is 01:05:43 Origin. He is a crash out. That doesn't do much for me. He just crashed out. I'll give you a game time comp. Okay. Antonio Brown's last game. Oh, he made a fool. He made a mockery. He crashed out. He made a mockery of it. He went crazy. Yeah, it's like going mental but
Starting point is 01:05:59 extra. On like a big stage. Yes, exactly. So he would say that Cody had a D1 crash out moment when he fought Corey. Oh, yeah. I would say so. So how would you use that's a definition? How would you use it? You could say he's a diva or you could say he's a crashout.
Starting point is 01:06:14 He's a D1 crashout. So Cody's a D1 crash out. Yeah. He's crashing out, twin. Some other people like they might be due to. They might be NIA. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:06:22 he's a D1. He's a D-W. He's a D-W. He's a D-W. Yeah. But Antonio. Do you rank the level of crash out? That's what the D-1 is.
Starting point is 01:06:29 It adds, it builds upon the word crash out. So like that. Oh, baby. God, man. We almost got Swiss cheese right there. Every single time, man. Well, you know what that is, Graham? Two minute warning.
Starting point is 01:06:41 Yeah, that's right. You are familiar. You are familiar. Do you guys got any, any rant? Ooh. You know, my rant's like a little bit on the edge. Oh, no. It's not too, not too angry, but when I was a little kid, I would play right field.
Starting point is 01:06:57 Because I was an almost athlete, you know? Yeah. You know who they put out in right field. Sure. The kid who doesn't do much, you know. Flower pickers. And I was out there, you know, picking flowers and jumping and catching mosquitoes. But I knew I didn't have importance. there was one game I got pooped on
Starting point is 01:07:13 in the outfield by a bird. That's better than another teammate. And I was thinking why did they not just get rid of that position? It's useless. Right field? Yeah, you don't need that. The kids aren't even hitting it into the outcome. And youth baseball is. I might as well be sitting on the bench. That's true. Eating seeds.
Starting point is 01:07:29 I feel like this podcast just released something in you that you have been holding on to for about eight years. It's only been eight years. I wasn't doing much.
