Starting point is 00:04:05 I was talking to Andrew about this. He saw it too. The amount of fans, literally in the thousands, who reached out talking about my son Lucas making the team when we talked about it on the show. Can't thank you guys enough. He found out. I was just like, man, a lot of people are saying it.
Starting point is 00:04:20 And he was like, really? And it meant a lot to him too. But he went through like a crazy thing with it. He made the team. And now he's like, I found something out and I'm going to just say this. Cause it was a really a moment. It was a moment that really was a special to me. And I'd like to share it here. Me and Bill always talk about our kids on here sometimes being a dad. So, and I know that people like it. My little girl who was never really big at basketball. She's a soccer and she likes ice hockey. She has her first basketball game. She's nervous as all hell. She's nervous as all hell waking up in the morning. She's pacing.
Starting point is 00:04:55 I hope I do good. She's eating breakfast all nervous. I go, sweetie, you're gonna be fine. You'll be fine. It's like first time she's ever playing in like an organized school game. Right? So me, I talk shit. I'm like, you, you, you know, you know who you are. I start saying all kinds. I start going too heavy on a little kid. You know who you are. Right. Anyway, long story short, the game is like 12 to four. My daughter has eight points. They go, can we take her out? She's just, she just got the ball, ran to the hole and kept scoring like and like these
Starting point is 00:05:25 she just knew she knew what to do she also had seven shots that hit the rim and went in and out i mean i'm she could have dropped 20 anyway she's glowing she was on fire dude she was on fire and the other coach goes the other coach goes hey hey verzi and he like knows i'm a comic he gets a kick out of it he goes verzi verzi we want tested. She needs to be tested. You know, all that shit, right? So the coach comes up to me and he goes, man, she's got confidence. And I was like, man, it's so great. And she gets the game ball. They have this little pink game ball. They give it to her. She's psyched. They go get a Sharpie,

Same thing. coach comes up to me and goes so he our coach for Sophia he goes so I heard Lucas made the modified team and I go yeah and he goes um he goes yeah he goes well I go yeah man he struggled with making it wanting to make it he goes well there wasn't ever a question and i go what he goes i talked to some people he goes they looked at his first couple tryouts they go this kid's skill set's unbelievable he was never not going to make the team and i was just like so i come home sophie's got the game ball lucas is happy for her and then i go and they said something about you buddy and then and do both of my kids. So we just had this like Saturday fucking basketball, Verzi family thing.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Did your wife come home wearing the turnover chain? Oh, but actually Stacy started talking some shit. My wife goes, Oh, my, my, you know, my basketball family. And she was just like slapping them five and stuff, and we got really kicked out of it. But the point of this is I want to thank the listeners who were like, oh, I'm so happy for your son because it's really awesome to see. But, Bill, I got to tell you something, man. It is – watch. When your little boy or your little girl plays something,
Starting point is 00:07:19 you're going to be the guy acting like it's cool at first. You'll be sitting there, yeah, yeah, it's great. No, I won't. Dude, it's nuts. When that'll be sitting there yeah yeah it's great dude it's nuts when that moment comes dude it is i don't care success or failure what i care about is trying right go down swinging that's it i got one for you i was driving my daughter to school today she goes she goes dad i go what she goes sometimes sometimes lepers like to climb trees and be alone. And I'm like, it's leopards, buddy. She keeps calling them lepers. She's like, I like to say lepers. I'm like, all right. Well, they like to leave lepers alone. That's so funny, man.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I was just picturing this guy with leprosy, like, ah, nobody likes me and just climbing up a tree and being there all sad so we got an email and Stacy goes the lady running the lechery the lady running the lechery the rec league at the school wants to know if
Starting point is 00:08:24 you'd volunteer. Just as the seventh and eighth grade boys play a pickup game, they need a guy to organize who's going to sub. You're not coaching, but can you just go and, like, organize when to sub the boys in and out? Now it's Saturday. I'm home and free. I can't say no.
Starting point is 00:08:40 So I go, yeah. So I go, wait a minute. What do I got to do? You got to get a brown fucking sport coat. Yeah, dude. fucking clipboard so i show up there and it's a full court game they have officials and they go yeah no paul just deal with that team but just you don't have to coach just when it's time to sub just say sub so it starts out where me and the other guy doing it for the other team are together second half i'm on my side he's on on his side. I'm called. Get over here. I go, I call the team over. I go, this kid, Frankie keeps beating you kids.
Starting point is 00:09:10 I swear I got struggled. This kid, Frankie keeps beating you kids to the hole. I go, you got to stop that kid and get back on defense. You're going to win the game, dude. And I turned into him yelling at his team and I turned into a full-fledged coach. And I got to tell you something. It was the greatest feeling. I go, you guys got this. You guys got, just get back on defense. This kid, just take this kid out, dude. It was, but then you want to win. And I was like, I don't know if I could do it. I remember our high school basketball coach going, you lose sleep as a coach. He was a keyboard teacher that would like the,
Starting point is 00:09:38 the, the, whatever the teacher in the keyboard class, whatever. And he goes computers. It was like a keyboard. It was like to, it was like a keyboard it was like to it was like learning the keyboard on computers that's how old like that's how long ago like it was dude i was like a keypad yeah like the you know no like you know the keyboard i'm picturing john bon jovi oh yeah and johnny used to work on the job that great. He used to teach us top 40 hits, man. It was a child led school. No. So dude, he said, when you're a coach of even high school, you don't sleep.
Starting point is 00:10:14 You don't sleep. You're, you're completely, it's what the community's talking about. The community wants to, wants to win. Parents are asking you questions. You're going in. He's like, you don't fucking sleep. And it's like, I don't know if I'd want, as cool as it is to like win with kids, to have that parents going.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Oh, no, no. It's thankless because everybody thinks their kid's a fucking star. I'll tell you a great win I saw last night. I caught the end of Memphis playing Alabama. And Memphis had lost like three or four in a row. Penny Hardaway's their coach. Yes. Just watching him being a coach.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Cause he's still his face. He still looks like the same guy who played on Orlando and on the sons. But like, it was just cool watching him being out to be like, Hey, Hey, you know, yelling at everybody.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Look at Penny all fucking grown up. I watched Georgetown in Syracuse and I'm watching Patrick Ewing being a coach. It was kind of like a really cool thing where I was like, man, I remember watching these guys when they were kids. I mean, Penny, I think I'm older than him. But Ewing's a couple years older than me. But I remember watching them when they were like
Starting point is 00:11:18 just kids in the NBA or in college. And now they're like fucking coaches teaching these young guys how to be men and stuff. Dude, Memphis was a fun team to watch, man. Yeah, it's weird growing up and getting older and seeing that because I saw an interview of Steph Curry when he just got into the league and Reggie Miller was interviewing him.
Starting point is 00:11:40 He goes, are you going to catch Ray Allen? And he goes, that's almost 3,000 threes. And he goes, you know, that's good. And then last night at Madison square garden, my older brother happened to be there by chance. And the tickets went up in price overnight the night before up to like 900 bucks to get in the building. He only had to hit two threes. Of course he does it in the first quarter garden stands up for him. Of course the garden is happy for everybody. It's like those faces are never for us. It's always other people's moment. It's the Mecca come to the Mecca for your success.
Starting point is 00:12:13 That's what, that's what the fucking garden should say. Come to the Mecca for your success. Come and achieve here. Come and achieve here. Not, not us, not us, but. But the other side of it, Paul, is that you guys are still called the fucking mecca while you know the celtics and lakers are sitting on 17 championships each and we'll just yeah we
Starting point is 00:12:33 just play at the staples center and the fleet center you guys play at the mecca yeah well people come from all around to gather the the Lakers don't have 17 championships. Well, I mean, you know, they... The Minnesota Lakers have a few of them. Minneapolis Lakers have four NBA titles and a BAA title that, for some reason, they're allowed to call it. They somehow won an NBA title before the NBA existed, and they had a mobbed-up ref.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Yeah, the Lakers are sitting on six that are bullshit, but that's what LA is. Dude, you pad your resume. Everybody's a director. Everybody's a producer. Everybody's got 17 fucking rings. I'm not trying to shit on Los Angeles sports fans here, but here's the deal.
Starting point is 00:13:19 You can't be an organization in Wyoming and then pick up one day and go to Florida and take what you did in Wyoming to Florida. It doesn't work that way. As far as I'm concerned, Minneapolis, it does. It does because at the Lakers moved to Vegas and then they win the next year with Laker fans, listen to Vegas fans going, Oh, we got 18 bitches. Right. You got one. I agree with that. Um, But it was cool to see Ray Allen there. It was cool to see Reggie there. They all came out, gave jerseys, hugging him.
Starting point is 00:13:51 His mom and dad there. He ran up to his mom. I love how there was the moment and then Spike Lee still had to get in there. It's like, Spike, this isn't your fucking moment. Get the fuck out of the frame. And why is Spike Lee? And then he got on his knees with a camera like he's a photographer all of a sudden it annoyed me too yeah with that same stupid look like he's doing something goofy it's like no dude we get it you go to every game we get it paul that's funny
Starting point is 00:14:15 because you said spike lee like he's a photographer or something he is a an acclaimed director who has held a camera he does work with motion pictures He has worked with Denzel and done some pretty, you know, revolutionary stuff. I know, but dude, that wasn't his fucking moment. I agree with Paul, though. If he comes out there dressed like the fucking,
Starting point is 00:14:32 like a court jester. I agree. I know. It's all, yeah, yeah. All orange suit on, you know. I feel like he puts on a Velcro suit and then runs through, like, the gift shop before every fucking game
Starting point is 00:14:45 look at me i'm i'm the crazy fan look at all the stuff i bought yeah um yeah he always tries to insert himself into the game like trying to back in the day get a go with fucking reggie miller and all that like i'm telling you i think he wants to act i mean he could put himself in his own movies he has he has what's i'm saying but that's not enough right um dude what is it i hate when celebrities fucking can't just go to a fucking game and they it's got to be about them too it just drives me up the wall it's like this isn't your arena just shut up i hate when they go to the fucking with the ufc at any time to cut to an actor the actress sister going starts doing that with them yeah yeah it's like why are you doing that you should be holding up a script that's why michael j fox is the shit michael j fox is the shit michael j fox loves
Starting point is 00:15:41 going to nick games he sits there he's. Like you see him like clapping. He's into it. But even when the camera comes on him, he's like, you know, and he looks great. He looks great. And I got to tell you something. You want about his dating life, but Woody Allen was the same way. Woody Allen wasn't fucking going there trying to get on the court. Well, he was players and shit.
Starting point is 00:16:00 He had a fucking 12 year old next to him. But that's his wife. You watch Well, he had a fucking 12-year-old sitting next to him. He was distracted. But anyway. Hey, that's his wife. You watch what you say. Yeah. I wouldn't want the camera near me either if I was Woody.

Speaking of UFC, holy shit, I ordered that fight. I ordered that fight. I had one buddy over, Lucas's best friend's dad, who I'm really cool with. He's a cop.
Starting point is 00:22:38 He's a shit. We ordered the fight, and Nunez comes out, and they're like, the goat, the lioness, blah, blah, blah. She's going to, and this other chick, Juliana Payne is going, I'm the matchup for her. I'm telling you, everyone's calling her crazy. They're calling her delusional. She goes in there, dude. And Nunez, something was up. She was like smiling in a weird way. You know, when somebody, and then she was like in her corner between, and she's going like this and I'm going, something's off dude and the other
Starting point is 00:23:05 chick just kept coming and it beat her and kept jabbing her jabbing her got her down submitted her it was dude it was unbelievable man it was unbelievable yeah i gotta uh i gotta see that happens dude i think they just it's just fucking hard to keep that edge you know i remember that happened to uh conor mcgregor he got choked out then he came back had a different strategy damn near broke his fucking leg that first time i wonder if that had to do with his leg snapping years later because i remember uh when he he came back against um i'm the worst i can't remember anybody's name nate diaz yeah i fucking love those guys well dude let me ask you he just kept kicking them with the same leg.
Starting point is 00:23:46 And I remember thinking like, how the fuck can that guy just do that? Shin against shin that many times. And they showed him after the fight, he was already limping out. And I don't know, was that the same leg when he went to planet and snapped? I don't know. I didn't even think about that. And that's a good point. And that's my question. Like, if you snap your ankle in half if your leg breaks like that and then it heals that part still has to be weak later right i actually say that it's stronger which is weird they say it becomes
Starting point is 00:24:17 strong but he didn't break it then so i don't know if if he made it i mean i mean i just remember just watching in the amount of times i couldn't believe nate was still standing and i couldn't believe he was still standing yeah no you kicked in the shin once you just go down yeah you didn't watch any of this part that is for regular people that's a liver punch for pro fighters they have to get punched in their liver. Speaking of liver, dude, Dustin Poirier was hitting the champ hard in the face. And then Charles, was it Oliva or whatever, he came up and he gave a knee right in the liver. And you saw Dustin have to stop and he's kind of looking around. And dude, this guy was like a snake until he ultimately got on his back,
Starting point is 00:25:07 climbed on his back, wrapped his legs around his waist and got him on the, what are they called? The naked choke. And he ended up getting him. It was a, it was a crazy fight, but the champ ended up winning because of liver shots with his knees.
Starting point is 00:25:20 And it was, it was nuts, man. Like I got to tell you, I was wrong. I've said that. Remember I used to joke, these guys are barefoot. It's gross.
Starting point is 00:25:29 It's one of my favorite things to watch ever. Yeah, they're always like competitive fights. I can't believe I missed that. No, it was a great one. I mean, I love seeing somebody. I have that weird thing where I love seeing the underdog win, but I hate seeing the champ just being off you know she said something which was weird too when she was done she said like i checked out she said something weird and
Starting point is 00:25:52 then some of the some of her like peers were like did she kind of quit because the choke wasn't fully in when she tapped but she knew she was done and rogan was saying to rogan and cormier and all the guys that were they were like, she was so gassed. The only knock on her was if you get her like past two and a half rounds to three rounds, she gets really tired because she usually is a first or second round finisher. And she was, and this chick just kept coming and coming and coming at her.
Starting point is 00:26:18 And you could tell dude in her face, she just was like the way she was breathing. She was, she was gassed. She was tired. A lot of pressure yeah it is it is like i feel like um like when you've never lost or whatever like everybody is just sitting there and then like the way the fans treat you afterwards like i think roy i always talk about this roy jones jr's, the highlights of his losses, have way more hits than all of his wins. He's one of the greatest of all time.
Starting point is 00:26:50 And it's just, I get, you know, people hating on people. I don't understand, like, not respecting fighters. Like, when they see somebody get knocked out, they're like, oh, shit. They fucking, he fucking blah blah blah blah it's like what what would you have done right right yeah you would have died if you took that shot the only time i don't like it is when a guy like that remember that prince nassim hamid like he's having a fucking cold he uh he would prince nassim hamid would do like a back flip in the ring and he would like say shit about it.
Starting point is 00:27:26 Like, I mean, I don't like when guys like talk about the other guy's wife. Like, yeah, she'll be at my house tonight. And then like, like, I love watching. I love watching that guy get knocked out. Yeah, but like he's selling the fight. Your wife sent my DMs. That's one of the fucking, I mean, you're sitting there with a busted leg and you come up with that shit this is a comedian i had to be like all right this guy's this guy's doing some great crowd work here
Starting point is 00:27:50 like clever lane like hey woman why don't you come on with a real man yeah yeah clever lang that's a that's a great i never understood going like that hard because it's like there's like um dude that's how good they are never understood going like that hard because it's like... There's like... Dude, that's how good they are because they actually know that if somebody gets mad, they're just going to be just that little... Extra. Wilder, and that's all they need is that split second
Starting point is 00:28:16 where they'll be able to slip it and just fucking hit you with something. It's amazing to me. Yeah. When I watch a UFC fighter, and I think I know who's going to win, and when they do win, dude, they're always breathing better. They're calmer. Like the guy's just standing there like you could see him breathing
Starting point is 00:28:35 and he's just waiting. And then the other guy's like every time there's one guy like this and then there's another guy like just kind of like, and you're like, oh, it's over. Yeah. That's what I was talking to you about when I was saying like great goal scores. When you go to a hockey game, you watch the guy with 50 goals a season.
Starting point is 00:28:51 He's just sort of gliding around in the offensive zone. Everybody else is fucking looks like they were all over the place. And all of a sudden he just sees something turns on the afterburners. The next thing you know, the pucks in the back of the net. I just feel like all of those great ones, they're just fucking relaxed. Paul, if you sit ringside, anything's better. Paul Verzi, they sit ringside. What are you going to do when the camera cuts to you?
Starting point is 00:29:16 If I'm at a Knick game? No. If you're at a UFC game, do you do the stupid performer thing where you start to act like you're shadowboxing, like you're going up next? No, I do this. I do a nice little smile and a little bit like this. You know, if I'm drunk, I might do a little like, you know,
Starting point is 00:29:35 do a little peace sign, something like that. But I would never go like, no, dude, that's not me. Are you wearing sunglasses? No. No, no. I would give a nice dude. Not to me, ringside Paul. I'm going to look at the camera and be like, I'm afraid.
Starting point is 00:29:54 Yeah, that's great. These people are scary. Oh, my God. Another sport. I know this is really kind of a sports heavy top of the show. Guys, I'm going to make an announcement. I'm going to make an announcement on anything better, and I never thought I would be saying this, but where else to say it?
Starting point is 00:30:10 I'm making an announcement right now. I don't know why, Bill, you're holding your – don't worry. No, because I just thought of the most fucked-up, stupid thing ever. Oh, okay. That was your mind going. I am now a soccer fan, and here's why. Here's why. I go to my mother-in-law's for her birthday dinner in December 11th. I go for a dinner and I'm going, are you guys watching the army Navy game?
Starting point is 00:30:33 And my son goes, no, we're watching the New York football team play Portland for the world, for the, for the MLS cup for the cup. And I'm going, Oh, that's the New York city team on my buddy likes that team. And we're watching it. And I'm really kind of not into it anymore. And the, the, the New York football team is up by one. And all of a sudden there's a minute left and everything starts getting rowdy and they're in Portland and the Portland fans are going nuts. And, and, and Portland's got 30 seconds to score, to tie this thing or the or the or new york football team gets the cup and portland scores and the place goes fucking ape shit and then this is where i became a fan portland starts looking at the new york fans and looking at the new york football club and they're going i literally saw
Starting point is 00:31:19 these guys they're going take that you fucking pieces of shit. Take that, you pieces of shit. And then it goes to two 15-minute overtimes, and I am locked. And all I want is that place to file out like a funeral. All I want is that place to – Bill, you know how I get. I want nothing more. And I'm watching it, 0-0 after the first 15. I mean, 1-1 still. Then halftime.
Starting point is 00:31:43 Then the next 15. And then it goes to a shootout and dude this was the dopest shit i've seen in soccer the goalie for portland was like looking at the clock and looking around and this dude sean johnson this big like dude this big dude for the u.s he had this as a matter of fact like let's go to work he stops the first two penalty kicks bill with one hand. He knocks one out, but when he did the second one in a row and we ended up getting goals and now we're like one away and the fucking guy for Portland, he looked like he was British or
Starting point is 00:32:15 whatever. He went the wrong way. We score, we win. And that place was fucking devastated. And you just see a pack of New York football clubs, fans crying, going nuts. And all of those people, they're giving fingers to them. It was incredible. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:32:32 soccer is incredible. So congratulations. And they had a parade in New York city last, you know, I guess yesterday or two days ago. So congratulations to the decent turnout. It was huge. It was huge.

It's just a guy out cold. It's just a guy getting jerking off to him. I'm jerking off to the idea of sleeping it's not gay i swear to god i'm not gay look at that mattress oh shit that's funny he's got two pillows she didn't take one of them oh look at those linens oh one up because she had to put it
Starting point is 00:46:21 between her knees because she has a bad back. Oh, fuck. Is that triple goose? Here's what I don't understand about pillows. This is like an 80s observational bit. Even if there's no leak and none of the feathers and shit fall out of it, after a while, it's just a dead ass pillow. What happens? Yeah, they just get pounded down, dude. They just get beated down, dude. They just get beat up.
Starting point is 00:46:46 I mean. Well, if you took a bird. No, like the bird feathers. Just I think it just ends up getting matted down, dude. It's like, you know, I don't I don't fucking know. People put them between their legs. They lay on the beginning. You didn't know.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Instead of wasted my foot. Well, no, but it is. You kept hovering around like you were gonna be you know the bird feathers i'm like oh wow paul you know paul loves sleeping he's got some information all right let me see why do pillows oh shit of course i'm missing a million oh okay here we go you know it's gonna be like 50 paragraphs they could have answered it in one sentence pillows are an added luxury well you know what a pillow is you fucking cunt so why do pillows go flat the most common reason why your pillow flattens is because your head is compressed to the loose material inside the pillow for a long period of time this is causes the material to lose its fluffiness and it ultimately becomes flat the flatness of the pillow could also
Starting point is 00:47:53 be due to moisture that didn't answer any i don't understand it any more than i did before i read my son or daughter could have come up with that fucking explanation your head compressed to the loosed material inside the pillow for a long period this causes the material to lose its fluffiness well paul we can fucking send a guy to the moon i'm calling bullshit on this i'm calling the pillow guy or no huh are you a one or two pillow guy when you go down? Dude, look at the size of my head. I got to have two. And they got to be newer ones, too. I think that it's designed obsolescence, once again.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Rears its ugly head. No pun. It's designed to shit the bed after a year. And then after a while, it's like, I love when the pillow gets to the point you put your head in it and just goes like this is all puffy and you're you can't even see on either side of you yeah well that's why hotel pillows are a lot you know because they have to they have to keep getting new new ones more and more frequently but i can't do two pillows because my neck you go three pillows three two for my head and one for me to hug. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:49:07 And you just hug one, you know? And you love that pillow because it never gives you any shit. It doesn't wake you up in the morning. Draw a face on it. Yeah. Wilson! Thanks for letting me know. I'm sorry. Wilson!
Starting point is 00:49:23 That was actually great acting. I actually thought that that ball was alive when he was saying, I'm sorry. When he was going, I'm sorry, and the thing just floated away. Did you imagine how hard that shoot was? The guy to be 110 pounds in this every day. Am I in this scene today? Yes, Tom, you're in all the scenes today. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:43 I wonder how long that movie filmed for, man. Because he was- They filmed it and then they went back another year. So he lost a ton of weight, then he put on a ton of weight. And how he put on the weight was he would drink ice cream. He would just blend up ice cream and just drink ice cream all day. Did he say how he lost the weight? Dude, he got real thin.
Starting point is 00:50:01 I wasn't interested in that. I didn't hear it. I just remember the other part with the milk. I don't remember. Drank ice cream. Yeah, dude. You got to be careful with that, dude. Cholesterol must have gone through the roof like mine after Thanksgiving.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Dude, ice cream? I do blood work on you the Monday after Thanksgiving. Gee, your cholesterol is through the roof. Yeah, you think? I'm sorry. I enjoyed my Thanksgiving. I almost died. I almost died when the giants beat the
Starting point is 00:50:26 Patriots in 11. He said, uncle Freddie died. I drank three quarters of a bottle of doers after the game. I called radio stations. I didn't realize sports talk. I was hammered and Stacy heard me throwing up in the sink i woke up fully clothed stacy heard me going i was going dude i was and and i i drank so much i almost got alcohol poisoning and i went for my physical and he goes dude he goes your liver numbers are like something's wrong and then he's like i gotta you gotta do this again and then so yeah don't eat a lot or drink a lot like two days fast before you have a fucking get your blood work done. You're not supposed to eat Thanksgiving four days in a row
Starting point is 00:51:09 and on the last day have it for breakfast and lunch. And then I had a double serving. The last bit of pumpkin pie, I had a double slice, a double wide, and I buried it in whipped cream. And then I walked in there. I would like my blood work taken, please. You have the cholesterol of a 600-pound man. Well, yeah.

Starting point is 00:51:42 And why is flying private so bad for the environment? Wouldn't it be great if everybody just had their own electric jet? A solar jet. How fucking amazing would that be? Some guy just took off in the first one. The first electric jet. I know. And you know the raw materials.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Someone's like, actually, if it flew on coal, it'd be better. I don't know. That would be fucking amazing. Yeah. You know, it has any seats in it. It just has a giant bed in the back with a huge seat belt. If you just go like that. Oh, my God.

Is that what if that song went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends, a great song. Well, who did the, I can't live.

I would go to a fucking speed wagon concert, man, because that Cobra Kai show has all of their songs in it. And I can't, dude. I would go to a fucking Speedwagon concert, man, because that Cobra Kai show has all of their songs in it. And I'm like, yo, those guys were the shit, dude. I would go to that. They were good in the beginning. And then somebody left.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Whoever had the fucking testicles in that band left. And then it just became like, I don't know. Just became that. Check this out, you know? You know, like those, like when you know that's you know like those those like when you're skating rink it was time for the couples to start skating like oh they played like that shit so um so i was listening to the first fuck one of the first uh i think the second album by def leopard i love high and dry album i love it let it go hit and run it's fucking killer album i don't know
Starting point is 00:58:27 that one i know the one with photograph that's a great album that was the one that made that made them blow up but then if you go back and they kind of had a different lineup they had a guitar player forget the guy's name i want to say it was phil something but just killer fucking riffs and shit it's just funny like you know the lyrics and shit back then was just so simple I love all of that music Phil Collin was Phil Collin well Phil Collin was the guy that stucked around okay and I want to say played guitar shirtless five years after we should have stopped like we get it you're a vegetarian but you know you're pushed in 60. we get it you're a vegetarian but you know you're pushed in 60 let's get a button down huh would it kill you to put on a button down um well what the fuck did i lose my oh stacy got a covet scare

So I'm being careful. I would love to just sit in the house the last week. Yeah, I mean, not with COVID, though, because then you can't be near people, man.
Starting point is 00:59:55 Oh, it's even better. As I said that, I was like, huh. Just like a leper. Yeah, leper, leper. Climb a tree and be alone. Leper in a tree. So my New York Knicks went to shit. It's over.
Starting point is 01:00:13 Ever since the thing with Kemba Walker, I don't know what happened. They benched Kemba Walker. They abolished him from the team and the fucking. Oh, they did. Dude, not only did they. Oh, you know what? There's a certain comedian that was giving me shit going. Ah, what happened to the celtics he was talking to his bragging about kemba kemba yeah kemba walker yeah yeah i think i know the guy you're talking about talent uh oh i thought you were talking about i thought you're talking about me no j. James Talon Harris. He's going to get a phone call from you right after that.
Starting point is 01:00:47 Yeah, well. Wait a second. Not only did they bench him, Bill. Not only did they bench him. They took him out of the rotation and they're waiting for a trade. And since then, you guys know the Knicks were doing good. Since then, the younger players that looked up to Kemba completely freaked out seeing that happen and was like, what the fuck, fuck dude this is a guy that's been in the league and is good
Starting point is 01:01:09 and you're just basically fucking like banning him from playing and we've shit the bed and we've hit a bad you know skid here slide whatever you want to call it and uh the Giants stink and um yeah soccer championship. Yeah, but I've only been a fan for 10 minutes. So I can't count it. I can't count it. All right. Like Laker fans counting championships from other – I can't live.
Starting point is 01:01:38 There we go. That did the job. I just texted him. Remember when you were excited about Kemba? Now I feel bad. I feel responsible for that. Woo! But Talon's not a sports fan.
Starting point is 01:01:52 He doesn't give a fuck. He goes, I root for all the New York teams. You know what, Bill? I know the mood. He's got a chip on every fucking number, and then he says he's a winner. I don't like that shit. I know the mood Bill is in right now. He's got to get Talon on here, dude. We do. We do. he's a winner. I don't like that shit. I know the mood Bill is in right now.
Starting point is 01:02:05 We've got to get talent on here, dude. We do. We do. He's the best. That would be a great fucking guest. No, we've got to get Tom Brady and Eli on together. All right, let's start in reality. We've got to get talent on here.
Starting point is 01:02:19 No. Reality. We get Brady and Eli. Oh, dude, if me, you, Brady, and Eli were here, it would be those two talking to me and you like this. I just be like, um, so Eli, I always liked you. Dude, you know what that reminds me of?
Starting point is 01:02:45 You ever see Jim Norton when he first interviewed Black Sabbath? Oh, no. Is it just a mess? Oh, my God. It's like Tom – what's his name? What's his name? Farley. Chris Farley doing the Chris Farley show? It was sped up Chris Farley.
Starting point is 01:02:58 Like he kept doing this with his nails? He was awesome. So, like, did you guys practice a lot? Did you guys always go to practice? He would have a question and then he would say it. And he wouldn't like how we said it. And then he'd try to say it again and again. This is what I love about him.
Starting point is 01:03:16 And he could actually listen to himself right after he did it. And just sit there laughing about how ridiculous he sounded. I'd be like, dude, tragedy plus time. If I ever did that, I would have to wait 10 years and have won a fucking Peabody Award for interviewing before I could go back and listen to that shit. The three most underrated comedians that I've ever seen in my life are Jim Norton, Tony Rock, and Bobby Kelly.
