Hey guys, it's us
The Jonas Brothers.

And I'm Nick.
And guess what?
We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.
Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it.
But, you know, tired and sick.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Absolutely.
A redacted amount of years later, we're still joined at the hip.
Just a little bit bigger hips.
This is a podcast.
We're recording it as we tailgate our youth soccer games in the back of my Honda Odyssey.
With all the snacks and drinks.
Why did you get hard seltzer instead of beer?
Oh, they hit a bogo.
Well, then you got it.

It might be a long one because I'm pretty tired of it.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another episode of Bustin with the Boys.
Episode 160, 160.
This 160?
This 160.
And I know for the last couple weeks I've been saying 160, 160, no, 158.
No, 159.
Now we're finally here at 160, presented by the most durable, reliable vehicle on the road,
the Chevy Silverado.
Silverado is strong and dependable as the people who drive them.
Can I please get this font a little higher?
because my boy, I'm squinting way too hard.
Chevy Silverado, modern and advanced with a ton of grit,
a partner in getting things done,
especially when it comes to the heart and soul of the pickup truck,
the bed.
With Silverado, the most functional bed of any competitor,
best in class standard cargo volume.
The inner gate folds to a large step
for easily getting in and out of the bed.
Silverado, strong, advanced, dependable, and hardworking.
Speaking of, dude, we had a strong, advanced,
dependable, hardworking weekend.
We did.
We were just talking about being tired,
like and how it's carried over into Monday a little bit.
Yeah.
Yeah, but it seemed like you went to a, but the second wedding was today?
The second wedding was yesterday.
We'll get into that.
We'll get into that too.
Well, you want to break down what we're going to talk about today?
Because we, like, do you want to hit the Thursday first or Quinn's wedding first or?
I think we should, everybody's excited to probably hear about the beer Olympics.
The boys.
Yeah.
Taylor, the old lineman, they threw a big beer Olympics over at Taylor's house and the setup couldn't have been any better.
It was a bang.
Mounds of beer.
Yeah.
We had a, we'll show it to you if you're watching the YouTube.
If not, you can probably check out the Instagram.
We had a little stack.
It was like six by five.
By four, by three, by two, by one.
Was it like that?
I thought it was stacked up like a rectangle.
You're talking about the beer picture?
The beer picture.
Oh, it's a triangle.
It's a pyramid.
I'm pretty sure, buddy.
Well, just wait right here.
I'm in no rush.
It's hot as Hades today, too.
It's on Taylor's Twitter.
I don't know if he put it on Instagram.
I don't get better at doing that
But it was, you had...
Oh, he's right, it was a pyramid.
Yeah, beer pong set up, flip cup set up,
beer, is it beer ball?
You call it beer ball?
Yeah.
Beer ball set up.
I mean, it was awesome.
And I don't want to sleep on the...
I think the biggest sleeper, the whole thing
was the way the bracket was drawn up.
I didn't...
Without you,
it became a shit show after the first round.
It would have been a shit show.
I literally go to Will and I go, hey,
we got to find someone to do a bracket.
And he goes, he literally goes to this.
Buddy, I got this.
I'm like the bracket guru.
I'm like, all right.
So the rest of the fucking day,
the rest of the fucking day, Will is in there,
like Zach Galfinakis in the hangover,
just fucking watching those numbers fly by and stuff.
Putting those things together,
did an incredible job.
Without him,
beer fest wouldn't have been what it was.
Now, the way we set up our beer fest was,
it was fun.
And Will and I did try to cheat to get on the same team.
At the end, we decided,
let let ball happen.
And I ended up with a great partner.
It was kind of hard to,
because even when I was talking about how we could fit,
finagle the hat and the picking the names.
Yeah.
At the end of the day, like, say there was two left.
Like, you're either trying to throw win in or somebody's like, I only feel one in here.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So Taylor and I were going to try to finagle a way to be on the same team.
I was fired up about Quinn.
Yeah, you had a good partner.
And I think it's better that we weren't on the same team.
We do, we like to chirp each other.
But we do, we're great teammates.
If we're on the same team, I think we would have done.
I think we wanted to be on the same team because we probably didn't want to have, like,
division between ourselves throughout the tournament.
Yeah, and I don't think we really did.
We had a good, we vibed together.
It was a good day.
You had to pull me aside a couple times, but it was for.
Because you were going at somebody else.
Yeah, the way that they all got, yeah, the way that freaking Nequan.
Yeah, it seemed like it was always a black guy.
It was.
It just happened to be.
That's just a coincidence.
Okay, you just don't, there's nothing to, there's nothing to.
There's nothing to be.
It's just a little dust up.
It was a little dust up and it just happened to be.
Yeah, it just happened to be.
He just happened to be black.
Okay, okay.
But, like, again, we'll get into it, but there was a lot of, like, there's a lot of,
You know it too being the ref.
You might as well just get into it now.
You had to keep your eye on that game because there's a lot of yelling going on.
There's a lot of cheating going on too.
And I could have disqualified you guys several times.
Taylin really hung me out the drive because I'm a competitor in the game.
Whoever won that game was going to play me.
And so I was like trying to be unbiased and actually like, you know, I'm rooting for you.
I'm rooting for them.
I'm rooting for them because if I played them, I had an easier chance for the championship.
Right.
But I was rooting for you because you're my boy.
And that's how it works.
So this is how the whole game was set up.
We took, I think there was what, 12 teams?
14 teams.
14 teams.
We had 28 numbers in the hat.
And everybody picked out.
Once you got the number one and then Will got the number one,
that means you two would be teammates.
We did the teams that way.
And the first game we played was just a quick six beer, three on three,
heat, how fast can you put down those beers?
Like a mini case rate.
Like a mini, yeah,
a very mini case race.
Yeah, three beer race.
And I thought to myself, a minute's going to be a good time.
And in the first round, I think somebody hit, was it 30 seconds, JP?
Me and Dylan.
Oh, 30, yeah.
If you're going to talk, please use the mic.
It's right there.
Dylan and I.
And you guys were super fast.
And I looked at Jordan Ruse, who was my teammates and hey, buddy, we got to fucking go on this thing.
And Jordan was like, hey, no problem.
This is my fucking thing.
I do this.
And I was like, all right.
Because I've seen him, he showed me a video of him shotguning
beer, beer, buying a beer, and then
I think just a cup of a beer.
It's really showing Taylor tape.
Showing Taylor, come check this out.
And I'm like, oh, shit, it's my teammate.
We're going to dominate this thing.
No problem.
He's literally showing him tape.
Old footage of him chugging.
Right.
And there's four heats.
And you guys are in the first seat.
And you guys held all the way to the last heat.
And I think we, we broke 20.
We were 16, right?
23, I thought.
I don't know.
I thought you guys were 18, but I did hear.
I know.
I personally, I already rumored 16.
A lot.
They're rumored 16.
Got beat everyone by a lot, but there was one rule in place for that specific game.
It was if you threw up at any point after drinking, D-Qed.
Right.
Unfortunately, our boy, Creature Man.
Creature Man got 18 seconds.
You got 16.
Yeah.
Everybody figured Taylor's team would win that because the boy can slant.
He can...
Edit that out.
I don't want people to know I can chug.
You already said 16 seconds.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
You know what I mean?
Like, if we're going to talk about it, like, it is what it is.
I don't want people to know I can drink.
Because it's a long game for me.
Three beers in 16 seconds.
Yeah, that was electric.
Electric.
It was electric.
And I sat there.
I took one, I took two, and I knew those were really fast.
So I yelled time.
I want to hear the time.
And no one would give me the time.
So I gave a quick burp and hit the last one.
And that was 16.
The burp is key.
The burp was key.
I've never done a beer chug like a chugging a few beers in a row like that.
And everybody's like, oh, the burp, you got to do the burp.
Yeah.
Because it hurts going down.
Bro.
That is fucking true.
Like, it feels like a sharp pain sitting at the type of your gut.
But once you burp, it's like you burp out a spear.
Then you're good to go, bro.
For real, that's a perfect way to put it.
Yeah, it's like you burp out something nice.
You're like, damn.
I think a mistake people make is trying to burber up for the first one.
Let's turn to force a burp.
I think I did that.
Did you?
I go one, two, get a good burp, and then the three goes down easier than one did.
Yeah.
It was great.
But yes.
I couldn't believe I got 35 either.
I was impressed.
I was, I was very, everyone had a great showing.
And I thought, oh, this is going to, we're going to crush this, no problem.
And our time was amazing.
It was awesome.
And then I hear guys cheering.
And I'm like, well, ain't nobody ever cheering for me in anything.
Ever, especially with my teammates or anybody.
No one's ever cheering for me.
The Taylor was so hyped that he got Jordan on his team.
They're a chest bump.
Oh, bro.
I mean, look at the man.
Yeah, the beer drinker.
He's from Texas.
He's fucking done it.
You know he's going to put down some beer today.
And I've seen him play beer pong.
I've seen him do a couple of games in Key West.
And I knew like, oh, I know I have a good partner.
I know what you know what you can do.
The beer guy got on the same team.
I was like, oh, okay, we've fucking good.
28 fucking numbers in there and they got on the same team.
How crazy is that?
Yeah.
So everyone starts cheering and sure enough, I turned around and Roos is throwing up.
Throwing up after the three beers.
It was more of a spit up.
Like it was a gentle, you know what I'm saying?
Like he kind of, he let it out.
He's decued.
They de-kewed us, dude.
So we started the game.
We started the next round, which was beer pong.
We had to run it all the way.
I think it was like six games just to get the final.
How we did it is we used the case for, or we used the beer chugging, the three beers
to chug and everybody got time.
That's why everybody was divided into heats.
It was like heats of teams of four or five,
four or five teams in each heat.
Everybody got timed and then your time
seeded you to set up the beer punk tournament.
And with 14 teams, you had to have one playing game.
Four teams got to buy.
There were four games to play those high team.
So five games just to get to the final.
So you guys had to win one extra game
more than anybody else to get to the final.
Yeah.
So I don't know how your guys is beer punk.
Go and talk about your guys'
beer pong because I've already kind of said how me and Ruse and I's game started.
Right.
What seed were you guys going into the beer pong?
We were the third seat going into beer pong.
So we had a first round buy.
We were set up.
And then the top five case race, or the top five chugging teams got points.
So it was a point system.
You went seating for beer pong tournament.
Depending how you ended up in the tournament, you get points down to your, in the scoreboard.
So each tournament we played gave you points and that's how we figured out who the
beer Olympic champ was.
But us going into beer pong, we were a three seat.
So we were already sitting in the round of two points.
Yeah.
You only had to win two games as the final.
Yeah.
Wow.
And we won our first one.
Who was it against?
Who were we playing?
Because you were down there on our last cup for like damn in there an hour.
There's a lot of win, though.
There's a lot of win.
Corey and Corey's teammate.
I don't know who it was.
Corey's teammate was Quinn.
Quinn's brother-in-law Riley.
Yes.
Who was on the bus?
Yeah, he came and saw the bus the other day.
So we beat them.
And then we lost to Ben Jones's team.
Anybody who's ever met Ben Jones knows of Ben Jones,
Ben is a guy that's literally good at everything.
He's good at everything.
I don't know if he's ever great at anything,
but he's good at everything.
And that is him.
He's a good chirper too.
He knows where to get you.
He knows where to get you.
He was saying some things to Ruse.
And I was like, hey, you got to get that out of your head.
Ruse.
Now, he can be easily.
Well, you can get, you can creep in that a creature man's head fairly easily.
You think so?
I think so.
You think it's an easy to access gate code there?
I think so.
Oh, zero,
yeah.
Think about when you were on the bachelor party.
And I just had to say a couple little texts and he was.
And he's been hurt for weeks about that.
I get that point.
I will say when it came to the beer Olympics,
I knew Ruse was so excited about that three beer chuggies he really wanted to,
you know,
show the people what he had.
And when he threw up and really sent us down to a DQ,
we were the last seat in beer pong.
It really rattled him for the next half of the whole beer Olympics.
And I'm,
this is the last one.
of the last, probably not the last things, bad things I'll say, but, I mean, the games we play in
beerbug, I don't know how many shots he made.
Like, it was fucking, it was tough sweating.
You pulled me aside and you're like, hey, I've made every shot.
I mean, JP was there for a lot of them.
It was tough.
And the first game we played, like, he got to bounce, which is nice, because that's two cups.
And we're shooting, and he's not really making any.
And it's like, we get done the last three cups.
It's, they have three cups left.
We have, like, six cups left.
So we have a good time.
But they slowly start coming back because I'm missing.
he's missing. Finally we win it at the end.
And that was tough. Those next two games were really hard.
And then we went on fire at the end. I think like...
You got a championship round by because Ben Jones backed out, which de-kewed his team.
And we could switch him up. So we ended up winning beer pong, which got us right back in the race.
They get four points for that tournament. I was tight. I was like, fuck.
Yeah, dude. Because you...
If we don't win that beer pong, we don't win. There's no chance of us winning beer Olympics.
Right. So we're back in the fucking game at that point. Now, the rookie.
Nick Petit Fatita, whatever his fucking last name is,
the way he was talking to me during the workout before Beer Olympics
was he's about to put on the show that no one's ever seen before in my life.
Gonna be honest, was very disappointed in his outing.
Really?
He didn't even podium, I don't think, at the end.
Get on the podium was hard, though.
Yeah, it was a difficult thing to do.
I mean, that was a long day, and I will say this.
It is a long day.
I hate to interrupt, but after one game,
and all we're talking about is Ben leaving in the middle of Beer Pong,
which is, we had a chug-off, which is a quick game.
And then we get into beer pong and he has to leave after two games.
Like don't, if you're going to do a beer Olympics boys and listen, I know guys got families,
Ben went home to put his kids down.
I had kids too.
Yeah, I had a kid too.
Yeah, but you set up a sitter, didn't you?
Set up the wife just being a trooper just knew that the boy was going to be gone all day long.
She knew it was going to be an all day affair.
Yeah.
Which is good, which is what you want.
Right.
But don't get into, don't partake in beer Olympics, which is an all day thing.
If you're going to have to leave fairly early.
Yeah.
And Beer Pong does take a long time, so I did a single elimination.
So Ruse and I, fucking, we got it done.
We won it.
We would have won that last game, too.
We were on fire at that point.
Ruse shook off the cobwebs.
I think if we beat Hilliard's team, I think we have a really good chance of winning.
Maybe.
We might have won by points because we had only lost by one point.
Because there was a tie, I know.
There was a tie between you and whoever it was.
And then we were one point behind.
We didn't have a tie.
We never had a tie.
I think your team had a tie
because someone was arguing about what do you do
do one cup for a tie or do you do three
and for me it's always the three triangle.
I don't know how everybody else feels about that.
You guys were going to do it against the team you tie with
but everybody just included everybody
so we could all I guess just get more drunk.
Yeah, I guess so.
And now once that ended the next game was Flip Cup.
Fun game.
And so the boys were in there as one seed.
We had the buy all of a sudden.
It was an outstanding deal
and we lose in the first time we go against the flow gods.
Corey's team in Riley.
And you guys saw the video, obviously.
I'm sure we put it on TikTok or whatever.
Very disappointing.
You walked into the pool?
Yeah.
Very disappointing showing.
I, uh, fuck.
I thought we were out at that point.
Yeah, hey, I thought we were out at that point.
I thought it was done.
Yeah, this is it right here.
He reached across and hit a cup and I was like, he's cheating.
Yeah, I did.
I did try to fucking cheat a little, but I did.
I absolutely did.
But I listened, your boy was flipping.
And I know, I know we were 12 minutes in this podcast.
podcast and I've really been gassing myself a lot, boys, but fuck, I played this.
I do, this is what I do.
You know what I'm saying?
You got to call it.
You got let out the cage, man.
You got let out the cage.
I did.
And so I was just, I was just right out.
I was super disappointed.
Beer ball hits and it's not a game.
I played a lot.
Flip Cup happens.
Who wins Flip Cup?
The flow gods.
I think, I think Corey won, didn't he?
The flow gods won.
Flow gods are Illinois's finest.
Yeah.
Which I forget.
Which was Christian and Jamako.
the new guard we got from Seattle.
Yeah, rookies.
The rookies did a guy.
No, no, no, he's not a rookie.
He's not a rookie.
Like a fifth year or something like that.
No disrespect.
No disrespect.
So then what the next thing was?
Flipcup Quinn left after Beer Pong.
Yeah.
I had to go Flip Cup with, who was my second partner?
See, I got passed around.
Yeah, Tart.
Which, Tart was on a fire team.
Yeah.
Tart, they were like a little sleeper team.
I saw Tart putting them down with this little white beater on.
I was like, hey, Tart, why don't you come on my team?
We're already kind of like in the.
the top three. Let's team up.
We teamed up and we did a good job on Flip Cup to where I think we made it to the semis
when we lost. And then Tart left.
And then I ended up with Riley.
And Riley, yeah, right?
Good ball player. Good ball player.
I do think he had a weak link when it came to beer ball because they were picking on
him. Both guys were firing at his.
Oh, tough.
Because he just wasn't, his defense just wasn't. It just wasn't different.
He was just having a tough day.
I think next year when we have another beer Olympics, what has to happen is
If you're going to buy in and you're going to play,
you have to stay the whole entire time.
You have to.
Yeah.
Because Quinn was so fired about CMA Fest,
and he wanted to go to the concerts and all that.
If you're a concert,
I got good for you, I'm not, but do what you want.
But I thought you need to stay.
Riley was supposed to go to the concert also.
He said, fuck the concert.
I'm staying here.
This girl's all about it too.
Like, yeah, stay.
Yeah, 100%.
So shout out Riley, dude.
Yeah, that's a tough look for Quinn.
But it was his wedding weekend, so, you know, do what you want.
Because it was like 6 o'clock.
He's like, I got to go at 6 o'clock.
And I'm like, bro, why did you start beer Olympics?
We started at 3 p.m.
We just thought the thing was going to be done by then, bro?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that was a good ball player.
It's a tough look for Quinn.
But then beer ball happened, and Ruse and I took that as well.
And I think we were down by one point, so we needed to win the three beer chug-off to end it.
That was the finale.
You start, we ended the same way we started.
Three beers, each partner, I looked at Ruse, and he said, don't say anything.
I got this.
And sure enough, the boys had it.
And this took home, what was it, $2,400?
I don't know.
It was $100 buy-in per team.
You could vent the cans.
Per person.
$100, $100 by-in per person.
Yeah.
And so there was $2,400 people, $2,400.
That's a good one.
Good split right there.
It's a good split.
It's a good split.
You need it.
No question.
We always need it.
Then after that, dude, the boys decided we're not done yet.
We're not that drunk.
And so we, so Rable's coming.
We had the, so Rable told me.
he let the rookies out early.
The vets get done during OTAs at 2 p.m.
Rookies got to stay for like rookie meetings.
They do a walk through a whole bunch of stuff.
And, uh,
Rabel goes,
hey,
if,
if I'm going to let these guys go,
you need to make sure there's transportation for them there and back.
Said no problem.
So I got the party bus set up for them.
Took them,
picked them up at the facility,
took them to the house and waited.
So then I had party bus guy up and I go,
listen,
the boys want to go out.
Can you take us out?
And he's like,
it's going to be this much more.
I was like,
let's go.
Hey,
I just came into some money.
we can make it work.
We teach you real nice out here.
It takes you real nice out here.
So my man takes us to losers.
And I made the conscious decision at that point that it was,
no more drinking for me.
Because I had the next day was Friday.
We had rehearsal dinner and all this stuff for Quinn's wedding.
I needed to be sharp and on my game to meet a lot of people,
talk to a lot of people.
So I stopped drinking.
But you kept going.
I kept going a little bit because I was getting like,
you know, when we had that little downtime,
that little intermission between beer Olympics and when the party bus was coming.
Yeah.
brought out the Stogies
pulled out the Stogeys
had a couple with
I don't know who else join me
but we were viving high
and then when you get on the bus
you kind of chilled for a little bit
so I had to like pick myself up
if I was gonna like
be for the boys and everything else
so I think I might have taken
a couple more shots
and we get to losers
and losers is pretty dead
but we got a bunch of shots
for the boys
and we were viving in that party bus
to me alive and the party bus
was an electric time
yeah it was a good time
but we got the losers
and losers was kind of like
personally like
I think that's a good vibe where we were at at losers.
But you saw what the young guys and what some guys expect when if you're going to go out.
The single guys wanted the bitches.
You know what I'm saying?
We're the hose at.
We're the host at.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, we made a movie life.
We really, whoa.
We really did, dude.
It was a fucking, it was a blast.
So we get to losers.
We take a couple shots.
It's always a great time being in there.
I love being at losers.
It's amazing.
It's in Midtown.
If you guys everyone to check it out,
no for shout to losers.
But they've always treated me great.
So it's amazing.
But it's a little keyer vibe.
It's much more low-key.
There's live music.
And Fridays and Saturdays, it does pop off a little bit.
But because of CMAs, you know, Broadway was just going fucking crazy.
Shoulder to shoulder, dude.
So we get back on the party bus and we're fucking sitting there.
And we've gained a whole bunch of people.
Jackie Boy shows up with a whole click of people.
Do you want to talk about who you brought with you, Jack?
You know what I said?
Yeah.
You know my man rising under the radar.
We're leaving losers to go to Broadway.
We were sitting on the party bus for like 15.
minutes and no one knew why we weren't moving.
Turns out the driver it hit somebody.
Yeah, he fucking hit somebody, dude.
Which really killed the vibe, low key.
Yeah, really kind of killed the vibe. It was tough.
And everyone was such a trooper because everybody's on the
same page that we just got, we're getting fucked up.
Dude, that this is the plan. Yeah.
We're doing this and everyone's like doing their best to stay in the
moment. Party bust drops up with my head.
You need to take us to Jason Aldeans, right?
That's where we headed to.
It takes to Jason Aldeans. But it's like a block and a half away.
It's like, this is as close as I can get.
And then Jack's, you know,
I guess this man spends a lot of time on Broadway.
He's taking us through alleyways, through back doors and shit.
We get there.
We go up and it's fucking packed in there, dude.
It's crazy.
How many people were there?
Shoulder's shoulder.
We just sneak all around on all the outer parts.
Yeah, just to get around, dude.
It was crazy.
Yeah.
So we did that.
That's when you bounced.
Yeah, that's when I hit the Irish goodbye.
I'll still talk on Jack about it a little bit.
But I was kind of on the decline.
It was kind of like the midnight piece and we had been out all day.
the boy was drunk, but I wasn't, I wasn't in that phase, like when we were going out on the party bus or at Beer Olympics, I was kind of coming off that.
So I was like, let me just, let me just cut my losses and head out.
Be one of the first guys that head out, sneak out.
You know who also did an Irish goodbye?
Taylin.
Your wife.
My wife didn't even say goodbye to me.
She said she looked at me and I was surrounded by a bunch of dudes and she goes, it's going to take 20 minutes for me to get to him.
So she just fucking dipped.
She just dipped.
And shout out to Talon for that.
when you're drunk and your girl's trying to leave you're like hey what's wrong
you're not having a good time what's the dude you know and she's like I know that what it happens
so she just she just caught her little stuff a little taxi home and buggy it out of there
and then you need to talk about this other place we went to because I never even heard of it and
everyone's like we're going to well I told I came up to you you're you're fucking celebrity
that night you couldn't walk too few without some drunk guy coming up on the photo
dude dude I tell you what the dicks love me yeah penises love me dude it's crazy
So then me and a couple of my friends were heading out
And I told you and you go
Oh I'm coming with you I'm going
And so I was trying to get out of there
And then when you left
So did 15 of the rest of our party
All the boys who had beer Olympics came
We went to layer cake
New Bar right away layer cake
Called layer cake
Right across from FGL
Yeah
Taylor ends up buying a table
And they hooked the table up
Oh they hooked it up
Yeah
And yeah I mean we didn't stand there for
Probably another hour and a half or two
Yeah I was I had home at 230
Yeah, it was a good time for sure.
I was about to buggy.
I was about to get the fuck out of there.
But then I went to go do a lap to see, like, what's going on in this place.
And there was the farthest table is like a bunch of Titans boys hanging out.
Oh, yeah.
That's why I hung out a little bit longer.
It was a fun time for sure.
I'll tell you what layer cake is, dude.
If you've ever been to Scottsdale, Arizona, and you've gone to Old Town,
layer cake.
That's layer cake.
El Hefe, bottle, blonde, all those places down in Old Town.
That's exactly what layer cake is.
You've got the women.
It's a club vibe.
You got the table.
women are wearing like the lingerie stuff
they're bringing the bottles out with the sign which
if you guys fuck with that that's fine
that's good for you I can't
stand the fucking
bottles and
the sparklers and stuff oh I'm all about the sparkles
you like it I hate that dude
and I'm gonna take you guys see the sparklers
really you got paper like that
let's get the sparklers back out here yeah
where is that oh this is when I did the thing
oh yeah your boys
cooked right there
Oh yeah, because I think you did it twice.
Yeah, no.
That's when you know, it's being a little overplayed, you know?
That's you know it's getting a little overplayed when you fucking run it twice, dude.
I thought it was funny later in the middle of all those people just while they're dancing on tables and shit.
Yeah, yeah.
Her like toes are like fucking doing the thing on my, it was a weird deal.
Oh, JP's into that.
So, yeah, layer cake was dope.
Get home.
I think I left like 230.
Get home like 245.
decided to put King of the Hill on.
God damn.
That's what was nice.
Like the noise is still in your ears, but you're kind of coming down.
You can't sleep at all.
Silence, yeah.
It's tough.
My phone's shattered.
Got a new phone.
Shout out.
My new phone's blue.
I didn't want it to be blue, but here we are.
Literally, I went to Apple with him.
He goes up and goes, A, I need to get a new phone.
And they're like, all right, what kind of phone you want?
And he was like, let me get one of them right there.
They're like, oh, it's a new 13.
They're like, which color you want.
That's like, you know I play for the Titans.
Let me get that blue.
What the fuck, Audrey?
It was so funny because when you're like, I'm going to Taylor.
I went to Apple show. I was like, I went to Verizon.
I went to Verizon. You were with me.
Dude, I go in the Verizon store the next day.
This is my next day. I'm super hungover. I go to the Verizon store. I'm sitting there.
And there's, I walk in and there's a Karen in there.
Yelling and screaming at some dude who she's like, my bill was this much.
You guys charged me that much.
And I was obviously listening to every single word she said.
It was like a $20 difference.
Like Karen, fucking relax for 10 minutes.
You're going to get your 20 spot back.
Yeah.
She's fucking losing your mind.
This poor bastard's, like just taking it like an absolute champ, being a pro about it.
And then who comes up to me next?
The poor boy that just got his fucking dick kicked in by Karen for the last 45 minutes.
He's like, how can I help you?
I was like, oh, I need a new phone.
I wanted my mini boy.
All the mini boys were like, what, 12 gigs?
I mean like three songs and one, one contact in that thing.
It's all gone.
So I can't do that.
I ended up doing this one.
He's like, all we got is blue or pink.
I go, I'll take blue.
I'm like, will you help me set it up?
Because my phone shattered.
and it's literally like, like, cook to the side.
Like, if you looked at it, it was bent.
Like, the top half and the bottom half was literally bent.
It was crazy.
So fucking this dude is like, sorry, you need an appointment for that.
And he's real standoffish.
And I understand because he just got fucking caroned up.
And I tell the boy, I'm like, hey, that must suck, isn't it?
It's tough when people just come in here and yell at you.
You're just trying to do your job, huh?
He's like, yeah, you know what is.
It is hard.
And we start having a little conversation.
Oh, been a little rapport with a little 15 minutes goes into.
He goes, I'll help you set up your phone, man.
I'm like, thanks, dude, I appreciate it.
Hooks me up, plugs it in, we're good to go, dude.
New phone, same attitude.
Love it.
You like that one?
No, I like my mini way better.
You actually like the mini for real.
It's hard for my thumb to get all the way across the top.
I'm fucking sweat.
Is it so hot in here right now?
Dude, fucking heat advisory out the ass right now.
But you sweat on every pod.
Not like this.
I feel like I'm back on the OG bus.
You're probably still sweating out some of the beer Olympics.
You know what I mean?

Let's talk about, uh, let's talk about you ordaining.
Is that what it's called ordaining?
Marring.
Let's talk about you ordaining, uh, your, uh, your brother-in-law and his, his new gal.
Yeah.
So, uh, Quinn.
my brother-in-law got married to Keisha and they asked me
in November if I would do if I would do their wedding for them I said yeah no
problem I can do that I've done it before once for Joey Tramontana is the boy's name
I did it in June time just like this it was out like 35 minutes out of the way
beating sun on me and I remember just like sweating like I am right now like fucking
beads of sweat were like hitting the piece of paper as I was trying to read it and we've all
seen me do ad reads on here it's fucking it's tough so in my head I'm like yo you got to
memorize this shit if you're going to have any sort of a chance of like sounding like a like a real
ordained minister how many times you rehearse it 75 really no joke once i wrote the script i was like i got
i got i got to read this over and over and over again you just keep doing it like in front of the mirror
or front of the mirror when we got when i knew where the stage the stage or wherever they were any
it's going to be i stood out there in front of empty chairs and just like envisioned everybody being
there and all that and actually really helps i fucking i did that i'll let you talk about how i did
well because i can't i've been gassed myself too much you know what i'm saying you are you do like
I do like the gas.
I do like the gas today.
Taylor did a really good job ordaining them.
Right when I got, right when I got there,
Charles and I got invited at the wedding, which I thought was hilarious.
Like, Quinn and I are boys, but it was just like, you know,
you feel, you feel funny because at one point he asked me to be the best man.
But that was more like a joke for sure.
Right when we showed up, there's like, hey, come to the back with me.
And I'm like, what before he's like, I want to read you something.
We go to the back and we're just in the back in his closet, like next to his dryer.
And like I'm saying, he's like, just staying there.
like you're Quinn and I'm going to rehearse this thing.
I've rehearsed it a lot, but I need to do it again.
And he does the whole thing and I'm like,
bro, you're going to crush it.
I'm like, that was a really good job.
He goes out there.
My man, he takes a huge deep breath.
Go ahead and wait it for me.
I'll rate it for you.
So my man's out there.
You can see he's a little nervous,
but he's nervous because he cares.
He wants to do right by the bride and group.
That's true.
And he takes a, he takes a,
my man's really dialing and he's checking in right now.
He wants to nail this thing.
Yeah.
They come out.
He does a great job being loud to where everybody can hear, not making it about himself,
which you know the boy has some tendencies at times to do.
I do that.
He did a really good job laying everything out.
He didn't really miss in on any of the senses.
There's one word you tripped on where some people might have, like, got a little phase by it,
but you just reiterated the word and you went, you continued to roll with it.
Said a couple good, subtle jokes, like the bride joke was really funny.
If she plays your cards right, what did you say?
If she placed your cards right, you'll be my sister-in-law.
Yeah, if she doesn't get cold feet.
Yeah, if you don't get cold feet up here, you'll be my sister-in-old.
It's easy piggins at a wedding, right?
Everyone's willing to laugh at anything you really say.
Really?
Yeah, yeah.
Actually, it's a good point.
And that happened at Dylan's wedding wedding crashers.
She was like, I think I'm going to crush it with some jokes.
And she says a joke and she gets crickets.
Yeah.
So you got to go with something that's genuine.
You did a really good job.
Being genuine, not making a speech about anything other than them to.
And you did a good job crushing all the lines.
You married them both.
They both said I do.
They both had a fabulous kiss.
They walk off.
You tell everybody, hey, unless you're,
part of the family or the
unless you're part of the family, grab chairs
and bring it to the back because everybody needs to earn their keep
around here. Gave some orders, everybody's picking
up chairs and moved to the back. It goes super smooth.
Overall, I would give it a
4.5. That's what I needed to hear.
Yeah, I'd agree with that rating. I'd agree
with that rating. I asked Charles do the same rating for me.
It was a little more critical
but, you know,
Charles was a vocabulary girl. I'm sure she didn't like some of my basic words,
I said. Well, didn't she say that you said a word?
Like you said some kind of word?
She liked my use of integral.
Maybe.
Was that?
Is it integral or integral?
No, it's integral.
I don't even know what that last word was.
Integral?
Is that a word?
Corousal?
Corousel.
Integral.
Yeah.
They both are integral parts of.
Charlott and Taylor said then, I'm like, what the fuck does that even mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, you get trial a dictionary.
She's good for hours, bro.
You talk about words.
She's all in.
all in. She's all in, dude. So that was a good time. Jason made it a fabulous meal. He did
barbecue for the boys. It was, it was awesome. Great time. You guys bugged out of there pretty early,
too. Well, early, but also, like, I didn't know everyone was going to be talking like that.
Bro. There were so many speeches at the dinner. And once that dude... And how it and organized.
Yeah, but once that dude started to say a poem, I was like, I need to get a quick break.
He's talking about, Jeremy. Yeah. Yeah. He's like, I'm going to say a poem. He said a couple lines.
I look to try. I go, hey, I'm going to go to the bathroom. Just you kind of like do this.
Yeah. Yeah.
wedding and I'm just kind of getting up and walking out.
It was a good wedding, dude.
They did great.
It was fabulous.
Good families, too.
Obviously, Quinn's side of the family.
It was only Quinn, his mom, Talen, and their cousin, Dallas.
Yeah.
That was only, and then, like, there was, like, 30 of Keisha's family in friends.
Yeah, is Keisha Italian at all?
It seemed like that was kind of an Italian family.
They had a bit of this.
They had a little bit of that.
Ball, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, Mark, the dad.
They were a great crew, though.
They fucking, they, they were there to party.
They had a good.
time, but they kept me up to 3m again, dude.
3 a.m. again.
You know, the whole time I was thinking,
when is everybody going to leave, so I'm going to watch Top Gun?
Because I need to go see the new one.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, you're trying to figure out when the conversation might die down,
but somebody says something else that picks back up, and you're like, fuck, it's not
really going anywhere.
And it's not them.
I loved hanging out with them.
I was just like, fucking, I was just tired.
Beer Olympics was still on me.
Yeah.
You had just switched a whole house up to go from beer Olympics vibe to wedding vibe.
Yeah.
Which I do think you guys get hold a small wedding venue if you keep it under 40 people.
Yeah, no, that, yeah.
It went really well.
I think that was at 40 or just under 40 people.
Yeah.
And it went really smooth.
It was a nice deal.
So yeah, that was great.
And then the next day, I go to Dylan's wedding.
And that's where I saw Dylan's groomsman.
Yeah, let's just jump right to the groomsman.
I want to know what that interaction was like with this groomsmen.
So he said a lot of shit these past cold pods.
And they heard it all.
I heard every bit of it.
Also, shout out to Abby Dylan's wife.
His bridesmaids, her bridesmaids were the life of the party.
Really?
The life of the party.
And I'm going to start a little in the front.
I'll go back.
We'll Tarantino it for a second.
They were having so much fun at the reception.
And I'm looking, I'm kind of like getting a bird's eye view of everything going on with this wedding.
I'm like, where can I help?
Because we're like laid a dish.
Real late a dish because of Key West.
So me, Creature Man, Jordan Ruse and Uncle Tony, we all got invited to the wedding as like a last second.
Like you could tell like the name tags.
They like barely got them things printed off.
They were hot off the presses.
It was right.
No book paper and let them go.
So I'm thinking.
myself, if there's anything I can do for this wedding,
it's to make it a little bit better if I can.
And I'm watching, these girls are dancing,
having a blast, like being,
not like trying to be sexy dancing, but like
being stupid dancing, like having a good time.
They're doing the ball in the air and like this shit,
you know, they're doing all the fucking...
Dancing like nobody's watching. Dancing like nobody's
fucking washing, dude. They're doing an amazing job.
And I look over to my left, and all
the groomsmen are like fucking middle school boys,
dude, they're sitting over there, like,
scared to dance with the girl. I'm like, listen,
if you're married, if you're not married, it don't matter.
just jump in there act stupid have a good time because the more you guys do that more people are
going to want to come so me and jordan were like uncle tony he's a he's a sit in the back type of dude
you know he says 10 words a night and he listen to every single one of those words and you love him to
death but he's he sits there for a reason me and jordan were out there two-step in having a good
time ripping it up making stupid dance moves doing the whole thing and i just feel like they could
have done it they could have done a little bit more there now when i got to the wedding i knew in my head
there might be a little bit of animosity between them, from them to me, which is totally fair.
I've said things in this podcast, and to be totally honest, I completely stand by them.
You know, they, they fucked up and they got to do a little bit better.
And I told them they fucked up.
But I have a rule at a wedding.
I've told you this.
I've said on a podcast before when I go to a wedding, it's not about me.
So I'm not going to make this big fucking explosion conversation with these guys about it.
But the bridesmaids are coming to me.
Abby's coming to me and being like, hey, that's so awesome.
I mean, you guys did a bachelor party for Dylan.
We're getting bratty points.
Dylan's mom's coming up to me loving it.
Abby's dad comes up and he's like,
it's really great what you guys did for Dylan.
I'm sure he loved it so much.
Like, we become a huge part of this wedding
because of a small little trip that we decided to plan last second.
And I go up, I see the boys that start coming out.
One dude fishes out.
I can't get his name.
If you look him up real quick,
he was a fourth round pick for the Bengals this year
and played at NDSU with Dylan.
He was a beauty.
Guy had a smile on his face the whole time.
You could tell he was there to party.
He had a drive back to Cincinnati that night.
So not a lot of drinking from the boy.
But he had a good time.
Yeah, that looks a lot like him.
Yeah.
Cordell Olson.
Cordell Wilson was great.
I thought he was awesome.
But you could tell when they all got together,
because I kind of met him one by one.
Hey, nice to meet you.
And he was all smiles.
I meant the rest of them.
And they were all smiles.
And then hilariously enough,
Dylan sat, me, Jordan,
and to Uncle Tony with all.
the groomsmen for the dinner.
So we're sitting there and it's kind of like,
you could tell they had like a little bit of like,
are we going to tell Taylor to go fuck himself today?
Spoiler alert, they didn't say shit to me.
You know what I'm saying?
They didn't say it in their eyes.
They wanted to do something.
Oh, I brought it up.
Right, but they did like a kid saying like,
should we tell Taylor to go fucking himself?
I'm sure they were just thinking,
I hope the situation doesn't get brought up.
Well, a couple of them individually came up to me
and were like apologized.
And then one little cucker dude came up to me at the end as I was leaving
And he goes, hey, man, about the bachelor party.
Like, I feel bad that we couldn't do one, but we all live different lives.
Oh.
And I go, that's all good, man, no whatever.
But in my head, I'm like, shut the fuck up.
You know what I'm saying?
What do you mean?
We all have inconvenient lives.
Yeah.
We all got to go.
It's a bachelor party.
You got to go.
It's your boy.
Yes.
I miss your will.
So I fucking get it.
You were swinging the sword hard on these boys.
There's somebody who's...
Someone who fucked up.
But I have to be on both sides of my mouth.
Yeah, like, maybe.
I'm not just fucked up.
Yeah, major fuck up.
Yeah.
But I've sat there.
Like, low-key, you could easily be at that table with them.
You know what I mean?
At that table with Dylan.
As guys who let down their boy for a bachelor party.
Like if there was a blank room and they're like, everyone who's let down their boy at one time, go stand over here.
I had to go stand over there.
No, guys who like let down their boy.
What are you just fucking said?
Yeah.
But you said one time.
You're trying to say like there's a one.
I'll let you down one time.
But that's like the way you let me down.
Here we go again, dude.
You know what I'm saying?
All manipulative will, dude.
All I'm saying is if there's a table to where you let your boy down for their bachelor party,
you could potentially be at that table.
I would absolutely be a superhero and throw a nice bachelor party for Dylan.
Yeah.
But you could easily be, you know what I mean?
Like with that.
I could easily be in that table.
So there's probably like, fuck this dude.
Like he came through for Dylan, but what about last year when he let the boy down?
Yeah.
And you know what I'd say to that?
Letting you down gave me an opportunity to grow.
Maybe I wouldn't have taken this opportunity as serious as I did with Dylan if it wasn't for the mistake I made with you.
Yeah, every choice is like dating, dude.
It's like dating.
Take something from your old relationship.
What could I have done better there?
You go to your next relationship and you try to do better and fix those problems.
And that's what I think I did.
And I let you down.
I'll forever be sorry.
Forever.
Choices have consequences, man.
Yeah, I have.
Tight that thing up.
All that being I know, I said a lot of stuff.
Towards the end of the night, the boys, the groomsman, really started to buy it.
And they were having a good time.
They were dancing.
In the beginning, it was a little shaky.
but at the dinner table we had great conversations.
One of the guys across from me was telling me the story about Dylan, Abby, and him.
Well, I can't tell that story because I don't want to get Dillian in trouble.
But they were in California and they had a hilarious time.
And they were doing this thing where like you have to tap the wine, the type of glass.
And you tell a story about the bride and the groom and then they have to kiss.
And so I was like, boys, as soon as they, as soon as the minister said, hey, or father,
are we saying that wrong?
Is it minister?
What do you mean?
All right, Jeeby.
The minister, father, whatever, the priest, he goes, hey, he basically explained what I just explained to you guys.
And he's like, I'm looking at you guys over there, like pointing out our table.
And I look around at the boys in the white shirts and the black ties.
I'm like, hey, this is your time to do this.
Let's go.
Nothing.
Not one thing.
Finally, one guy gets up and he doesn't know Abby very well, but he knows Dillon.
he's a hometown friend.
He gets up and he goes,
I don't have a big story,
but I wanted to say,
thank you so much for inviting me.
I'm so happy for your guys' relationship,
blah, blah.
I was like,
I killed it.
Absolutely.
And all the boys were at the table
telling awesome stories.
And every time they finish story,
I'm like, hey,
just tap the glass and tell that story
because they're going to love it.
They didn't do it, though.
It could just be anxiety.
That's tough.
That's why you got to normalize,
like, you've got to hype your boys up.
I was trying to hype them up.
And you got to tell a good story.
And Jordan, Jordan goes,
Taylor, why don't you get up and tell the story about QS?
And I'm like, dude, listen, what?
And so I make these guys feel bad.
Right.
And I'm talking to Jordanists, if they're not here.
I'm like, I know they fuck.
I'm looking at them.
Like, hey, they fucked up.
They know they fucked up.
You know?
But I don't want to soil the boys in front of everybody.
All that being said, great group of guys.
I really like them.
I don't know.
No, I really like that.
I really like, I know they listen to this podcast, so I'm going extra hard because, like,
it's funnier to me that they can't say nothing back right now.
But like in the comments right now
They should be
But they were they were good dudes dude
The whole squad was awesome
The North Dakota State squad was great
They had a whole different chance
And songs that I was trying to buy into
During the time
Very cool wedding
Families mesh together well
Moms were crying
The dad of the bride cried
And that was beautiful
The weddings
The speeches were not long at all
They were like four minutes tops
And you need those
You don't need
extra 45-minute speeches, you know?
You don't need those.
No, you don't.
You've been through it.
Been there.
We've all been there.
Yeah, I've been there.
But you're right, the nice, short and sweet ones.
Ones that, like, you can just feel that it means a lot.
Like, the guy who just said, I don't have, you know, thanks for inviting us.
I'm so happy.
Like, that's all you need.
That's all you want.
Yeah.
They should honestly start doing weddings where they have, like, if it's a smaller wedding,
everyone just stands up and says something nice real quick.
And then it just breaks the ice.
Everyone's got to say something.
Yeah.
Hey, thanks for inviting me.
I love, this is amazing.
You guys both look beautiful today.
Boom.
Who's next?
I think it's one of those things like, say Dylan listens to this pod and the last two pods
and then the whole, the way everything's unfolded.
Do you think he like looks at his groom and his groomsman is like, damn?
No.
You guys would have stepped up a little bit more.
No, because his groomsman for a reason.
They're going to be boys for a long time.
I think the relationship that they have, I'm not coming in here to steal friendships
with Dylan.
I'm just coming here to add to Dylan's friendship, fucking brigade, you know?
Seems like you're trying to get in that groomsman list
Well, they've already gotten married
So how do I get in?
The first time
No, they don't make it
I'll tell you what, dude
Statistically
You know
What is statistics?
Less than 50% now
Make it less than 50%
Really?
I think so
60% divorce rate
I don't know if it's that high
But I think I'm like 52%
Don't make it
So the odds are against both you and I
Odds are that either you or I will get divorced
I've always been against us
Yeah and what do we do?
What do I'm saying?
What do we fucking do, will you?
We show up.
We show up.
We persevere.
And we get through the hard shit.
What is it?
There you go, JP.
You guys couldn't hear him, but he said, beat the odds, do numbers, and remain.
I love it.
But overall, I feel like I went too hard on the boys.
I do.
I feel like I went too hard on those grooms.
I felt like that was coming the way he was hyping up the other parts of the way.
Now he's doing the comeback.
Because I'm looking at their faces.
I'm closing my eyes.
I'm looking at their faces in my head going,
man, they're going to be so sad.
I now have a name to a face.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because I saw one dude at Beer Olympics and I was like, hey, did you hear our stuff?
Because hopefully you heard our stuff because that was.
He has.
That was some bullshit.
That was some bullshit.
But hey, you learn.
You learn.
You learn like you.
Like you got to get over the home.
I hope someday all of us are in a fucking vacation together, a boys trip together.
And we all have a great time.
If I'm here for the good times, you know what I'm saying?
I'm here for the fucking good times.
You're here for most of the good times.
That's all I'm saying.
I know.
I'll tell you what happened to me this weekend, though, is it re-energized my love for weddings.
I was in a phase there.
I was like, I don't like going to weddings.
It's not that fun.
Did you like going to mine?
I really enjoyed yours.
Yeah.
I really did enjoy yours.
Last year, you know what I mean?
No, yours, it's like, I think it's, it might be more fun just being a guest at a wedding
than is being a groomsmen at a wedding.
I think that might be a little bit of a hot take.
but there's no there's no really responsibility on you.
You're there for a good time, you know?
As long as both wedding parties decide that we're going to get fucked up and have a blast,
it's your set, dude.
You need an uncle to pass out.
You need someone, an uncle to make an absolute idiot of himself.
You need a younger cat that's either a friend of the bride of the groom that just gets fucking hammered.
And it's like, oh, is he okay?
Is he going to be all right when this is all over?
And then overall, you just need people to buy in another, hey, we're going to have a good time.
Who cares you got going out going in 24 hours?
The next day you need to come.
conversation like, hey, I just want to apologize because that's not really who I am.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
But it was fun, dude.
It's cool meeting Dylan's mom.
Dylan's mom is an absolute beautician.
She's a sweetheart.
Yeah.
Loved her.
Abby's dad was great, too.
They had a good little chemistry.
There's two families coming into one.
Shout out to them.
Yeah, I love that.
It's a good deal, dude.
I like a really good day of love.
It was.
It was a good weekend of love.
Yeah.
Did you go to any CMA stuff?
Mm-mm.
No, I was tired.
Dude, after Thursday,
what was tired?
No question.
Then we went to the, we had the wedding on Saturday.
Sunday, yesterday, I mean, I just played Jurassic World Evolution, too, for...
What is that?
Is that multiplayer game or what?
No, it's a single player game, and it's basically like roller coaster tycoon for dinosaurs.
Go ahead.
You never played a roller coaster tycoon growing up?
No.
One of the best games on PC of all time.
You know what?
PC games, like back in the, I don't know, 90s, 2000s, I guess.
2000s probably.
Yeah.
90s, no, no.
But you build a park.
It's like Sim City.
Yeah.
And you're just,
you're like building the dinosaur park.
I think Sims would be up there too, right?
Best computer games all the time.
Yeah, Sims would be up.
Sims will be up their backyard baseball.
Yeah, is this it?
Backyard games.
Good God.
Ooh.
Rate of T for Teen when you saw that.
You're like, damn.
But you build, you build a,
yeah, if you haven't played roller coaster s tycoon,
it's kind of like,
like Harvest Moon for building Jurassic parks.
And so you just build these things up.
So you make your own parks.
Did the dinosaurs break out?
You got to, like, you got to research for, like, DNA so you can figure out what the dinosaurs are.
Then you got to, you got to dig up the fossils to unlock the dinosaurs, that species.
Really?
When you have that species, you got to learn more and more about the species by continuing to dig, continuing to build, continuing to learn about them.
Then you get to hatch them from a hatchery.
After you make all the cages, you make, whether it's carnivore meat, you build forests, like ground nut, ground fruit.
Sounds like arc.
Yeah, but you're not a character, an arc.
Like an arc, you're a character.
Here you're not like boots on the ground.
You're not a, you're not a, like a character.
Yeah, you're God.
Yeah, you're God.
You're playing God.
You build a park.
And you've got to, like, beat these missions, or you can go sandbox mode
where you can just do whatever you want.
The dinosaurs will fight each other.
So you can put them, like, you can build a cage and, like,
make carnivores, like, go in there and you'll see, like, who wins in the fights.
They can break out of the cages.
You've got to continue to, like, fuel it with electricity and, like, all these different
utilities to make sure the parks running. Yeah, it's a full-time job. Yeah, it's a full-time job.
There's always something going on in the parks, man. Is it realistic like this?
Yeah. And then like, say you want to go out and say you want to go out into like the wild and go get dinosaurs.
You can do that too. So you can have your park and then drive out into the wild like you're hunting kind of to like tranquilize and put them down and then transport them to your park.
Oh, animal trafficking. Yeah, pretty much. It's a, I'm a really big fan of the game. But I'm, dude, I am a true tier one day one Jurassic Park guy.
I love that, dude.
I always love Jurassic Park, but I was never like a tier one dude about it.
I loved it.
I was about it.
I was about that.
I was about, like, Star Wars, Free Willy.
Anything with, like, Animals, too, like, Mighty Joe Young I was about.
Body Joe Young, fucking hit.
Yeah, what's Mighty Joe Young?
This movie about, like, a big-ass gorilla that they rescue and they're trying to, like, put it down.
From poachers.
Yeah, from poachers.
It's one of those, like, late 90s movies that just hit you in your fucking heart.
Him by Wimbo, waho.
That's the song.
Really?
It's a good song, man.
My Jail, anything with animals, the boy was about Lion King.
I was all about watching the Discovery Channel.
Yeah.
Big Cat Diaries, like Animal Planet.
I'm all about that kind of shit.
Well, you really went through that, huh?
I want to get, I think I'm going to subscribe to Apple TV and get,
start watching the prehistoric show.
Just because it's got, that's there.
Again, it's a dinosaur.
Look at Mighty Joe Young.
Dude, what a stud.
Are we, are we over?
Cable is cable done?
I think cable's dead.
You think cable's dead?
Yeah.
And now that like all these streaming platforms are getting rights to games especially.
Right.
Because that was the one reason to have cable.
It was holding cable on was just like primetime games.
But now like Hulu and Amazon Prime is grabbing all these like Thursday night games.
Dude, it's interesting because there's a true like I feel like war of like streaming and.
Oh, there's going at it that we don't, people don't necessarily see they see the subscriptions.
They see who has what channels.
but there's like a fucking who's going to come out on top.
Really?
Yeah.
Hulu, Netflix.
You got Amazon, YouTube even.
You see everybody kind of adapting.
Dude, Netflix is the one that you just seen grow like crazy because when Netflix first came
out, it was garbage.
Yeah, you got them shipped to your house, the CDs or whatever.
And you're like, I'm going to roll down a blogbuster.
I'm not going to wait on a CD to come to my friend.
Man, Blockbuster was that fucking hitter, dude.
I loved it.
And then people were all about Hollywood video too, but I found I'm a blockbuster guy over
Hollywood video.
Yeah.
My two were Blockbuster and then Family Video.
What's Family Video?
It's like the orange logo.
It's got family video and the orange logo.
I love that.
What else is going on?
Is there anything you want to talk about?
No, I mean, what you kind of know, like, we talk all the time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, we got the weekend.
We were around each other a couple times over the weekend.
I told you about Sunday.
It doesn't happen as much anymore.
What?
Us being around each other a lot outside of here.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
But it's not.
There's not a lot.
Yeah, there's not a lot.
a lot of like slow times.
Like before bus with the boys,
um,
like we were like boys on the team.
Like we'd go over.
It's like,
what do you want to do?
Oh,
like,
let's hang out together.
Yeah,
it was always like at my house
in the basement doing whatever.
Because all you focused on was football.
Right.
Like once football's done during the day,
like when OTAs get out,
like it's like,
what else do we do?
Because we've just been,
we only do football.
Yeah.
Like let's do recovery stuff.
Let's do all these different things.
You didn't really have a whole lot to do outside of playing football.
Now we got like,
I just got a family.
Your family's been growing.
Wow.
We got this little small business.
We're running with Bustin with the boys.
Another thing about Dylan's wedding, dude, everyone was coming up.
About Bustin?
Guys and girls.
I mean, we were all kind of alluding to it with Jason Aldeem, but you're walking in,
those dudes who are on stage, you're yelling.
It's always dudes, too.
Always do.
The boys.
Let's go.
Like, fuck yeah.
You loki feel like a celebrity walking around here.
Yeah.
As I walked in the gas station today.
And I couldn't even get my bottle of water.
What else?
Don't talk about it.
Come on.
No.
Let's come on now.
Kind of billy-willy right now.
Yeah, so.
Hooked up with my ex.
Taylor, we can pull up the clip.
But Taylor has relapsed and my man is back on the Zins.
I'm not back on the Zins.
I'm quitting.
Yeah.
Zinn or Luan.
No, dude, don't start that.
Don't start that.
It was a hiccup.
It was a hiccup.
It was a hiccup at Beer Olympics at night.
And I try.
I was like, hey, I don't think you want to do this, man.
Don't do it, don't do it.
The blood lights weren't letting me.
The bud lights weren't letting me.
You were liable and I feel that.
But now you're walking in with them.
You bottomed with the gas station.
It seems like you're going back into the comfort.
It feels that way, doesn't it?
It feels that way.
It's just such a toxic relationship.
I see her and she's flirting and being great.
And I'm like, oh, you forget all the bad times you two had together.
Yeah.
It's like, I love the way you lie with Eminem and Rihanna.
Yeah, exactly, dude.
Watch her leave at the window.
what it's called Window Payne, you know?
Yeah.
So, yeah, I fucking relapsed, dude.
I'm pissed about it.
Eight weeks sober.
Eight weeks sober.
I know.
Out the drain for a Zen.
Is there something that we can say and stand on next for some just public accountability?
Or are we just going to feel it out?
We're going to see where we're at in a week or so.
No.
I think it's time.
After today.
After today, you're done.
After today, we're done.
After this can's done.
Okay.
We're going to say by the time this pod drops 30.
you're going to be done.
Oh, today's Monday.
I'm done Tuesday.
I'm just saying it.
I fully believe I will tweet on Thursday, day three of being sober.
That's great.
I hope so.
I'm just saying Thursdays when we will take this public accountability and try to take it serious.
I'm going to need a token after a couple weeks, though.
You're going to be in Canada.
You better tweet one at me.
Yeah, some more sad news.
The boys are going to go back to one episode of a week starting.
Next week.
very last week of June.
Next week's the last week of the eight week.
I know.
Yeah.
Isn't that sad?
Yeah.
So the two shows a week, it's coming to an end.
It was more of a test, like a trial run, but it's been fucking awesome.
How do we feel about it?
I feel really good about it.
I really do.
I think the two episode of week thing is awesome.
You just don't know if people are going to come and listen to like the interview,
the main one that we drop and then come back again for a second one in the week.
Because everybody's got their pod library, right?
Everybody's got their paws they like to go to throughout the week.
If you're a Rogan guy, you're going to have to,
you're going to have to take that pod list to for an entire week.
People like their McAfee's, their,
you know, pivot podcasts or part my take, like all their different pods.
Yeah.
Plus with the boys. So you feel like if you put another one out there, like,
who knows how much retention will actually get from the first one?
But we've seen like good numbers and everybody,
I'm sure everybody, like everybody's been saying they love the two pods a week
if you check the comments and everything else.
The two pods have definitely seemed like people are about it.
I think it's a move.
It might be as 2023 and beyond.
Yeah, I think it's, yeah, it's one of those things where you'll have to let the
the year play out in the season.
Like Taylor, he's going to, he's going to after OTAs is done,
my man's going to Canada for a month.
That's where his wife was born and groomed and stuff.
She's a groomed Canadian, you know what I mean?
Yeah, I do.
So you're going to go spend time out there in Canada,
so that's why we won't continue to keep up the two weeks
because you just can't put that kind of pressure expectation on it.
Like, we talked about doing the Zoom stuff,
but we all internally know that we can do it to get by
if we need to every now and then.
But we don't ultimately want to do that
just for like to put one out,
just to put one out.
Here's something to think about, too,
you brought this up.
And I'm,
I don't want to take your shit,
but the thought of maybe doing something
where I'm like an AJ Hawk
on this pot during the season.
That right there,
I think,
is a conversation for us.
And I think there's just variables
that you got to talk to versus like saying that
and be like,
because I,
you know,
I'm all about it.
But you know how it gets,
dude.
There's a,
we lose a game.
I don't play so well in a game and it's just like.
Trust me.
Yeah.
It seems so much bigger than it is.
Right.
Like Aaron Rogers, how he goes on the McAfee show every once, like once a week because
Macfee, they run a five-day thing.
I actually was on a green light and we were, Chris and I were talking about because we went
back and forth on Twitter about Traymond Green doing his podcast while he's playing.
They literally lost and he had a bad game and went and did a podcast within an hour of losing
in his hotel room, ran a podcast.
Did the same thing again.
He got benched in the fourth quarter, went back and did a podcast.
So Chris and I were like going back and forth on like doing a pod and balancing it all.
Because I think it's wild because Chris was like he was like, I think I won't say arguing,
but it seemed like he was going back after by saying like if you think a 30 minute podcast
is going to affect his play.
And all I said was it can it can potentially affect your play if you're thinking about it.
If you're going and doing a podcast immediately after the game, it can tell it can tell me that you are probably thinking about that.
podcast in the fourth quarter.
You think so?
Because you have a bad game and I'm only like Chris brought up a good point.
Like you're only saying that because that might be the way you feel with it.
I'm like, yeah, that's true.
So I've talked about Twitter with the Thanksgiving game and sitting on the bench thinking
about it.
Like if you know you're trying to run a podcast, I feel like it can play, it can play into
your psyche because I think we were Chris and I were kind of dividing, but we weren't
necessarily saying this.
We weren't talking about the same thing.
My argument was like if you're trying to be fucking.
if you're trying to win the championship,
if you're trying to be all in for your sport,
like you're trying to be one of the best.
Like, you've got to be able to, like, eliminate distractions.
Right.
Like, if you're sitting there and say you were doing a podcast,
some solo podcast, and you're doing them after every game
a couple times a week.
Yeah.
You're talking about the NBA.
You're talking about your team.
You're talking about the players on your team.
And you start playing bad.
Like, I know he, uh,
Dremont's been up and down.
People talk about his stats.
They've kind of been similar no matter what.
He's more of a defensive guy than offensive guy.
guy. But if you're having a tough time at work, and I'm like your sports psychologist, dude,
and we're sitting there just focusing on you as the individual and you want to be like,
I want to win a championship in football. We would talk about everything else that's going on
in your life that could potentially be a distraction. That could potentially be a distraction.
You know what I'm saying? So I was more saying like, it can affect your game if you're actually
thinking about it all the time. Now, Dremont, maybe he's not. And maybe like, to me, when we were
talking to JJ, that's what players are NBA players.
I feel like they might vibe with the whole media thing and doing podcasting
differently than what maybe football guys do.
Yeah, it's probably just a different world that, different culture, different world.
I feel like the players have more say in the NBA than into the NFL.
But they have more of power, I guess.
That might be the right word.
I don't know.
It might be like be more empowered.
Yeah, yeah.
They feel like there's less of them.
There's money.
The money's guaranteed.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
But part of me just feels like the NBA.
you have more of a freedom to do kind of what you want,
you can be more self-expressive than football.
And then football is much more self-expressive than a hockey.
A hockey, you're kind of like, they're not allowed to say nothing.
Like they're all so like,
the hockey boys will be, their personalities are phenomenal.
You put them in front of a mic and they'll be like,
oh, you know, we've got to make sure there's no greater turnovers
and all that kind of basic,
they'll say basic things to kind of get through the interview
because they're just trying to focus on hockey.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, because my whole argument is just like,
it just depends on what the guy wants.
Like I'm not saying his priority is not winning a championship.
But if he wants to juggle both and maximize both,
he's a fucking genius because he's been living number one sports podcast each time
because everybody talks about it.
Everybody's like, oh, he shouldn't be doing this.
He shouldn't be doing that.
But it's number one on the charts, like literally each week after each game
because people know he's going to go talk on the mic.
He does a good job speaking on it.
He really has been slain.
So it's like it all depends on what, like, how you want your shit to go.
But it's like if you were affected,
because in one of his recent pods,
he was talking about how he might have let external factors influence him a little bit.
But it's like if all you want is to win a championship right now,
that's where it's like that's where it could potentially be a slippery slow
because if you're losing looks terrible.
But if you're winning,
you look like a fucking genius.
Yeah.
If it's Aaron Rogers going on McAfee's podcast once a week,
that's not that big of a deal.
If I'm,
let's say,
if I would put myself in Jemong Green's shoes during the season,
I feel it's fine.
But if you're in the finals.
Right.
That's all I was saying.
Yeah.
It's like,
I'm not doing nothing,
but focusing on these finals.
Right.
You know.
But there's a lot of different arguments for that for sure.
Yeah, I think ultimately if you feel good, if you feel, if you actually feel good,
your teammates don't mind it.
And like, you know, because I feel like that's something that I would think about if I was doing it.
Like, you know, what are, what are, and maybe that's an issue of my own.
But what are, like, my teammates and coaches, like, are they kind of like,
I'm walking in the room the next day.
Everybody's like, why are you going on your podcast?
Yeah, that's what I have an issue with too.
And talking about how everybody played, like, how about, you know,
You could see variable.
How about you tell your team outs how they played, like, to them personally,
then being on a podcast.
Yeah.
But if everybody has an understanding and, like, Coach Kerr's, like, cool with it.
Again, I don't really know that culture as well.
Yeah, the only reason why I would want to come on this podcast
and do like 20 minutes and get out is just to keep the presence alive on this pause.
Seeing the way it's growing this off season, how the boys, everyone's finding a personality
in the back here, we're really finding a huge stride with us and how we're growing,
kind of like staying on the ship.
Because I really believe in my head, like, if I got off the ship for six months,
chips kind of left me behind.
And I know I come back and everything will be fine.
Like we are who we are.
We're boys for a reason.
But it's like you guys will find new things.
The show's got to go on.
And if I came on for 20 minutes on a Monday,
is that, you know,
I'm not going to go and talk about my teammates
and how they play.
I'll never do that, you know?
You could always structure it like,
you know, we talk about stuff like ahead of time.
Yeah.
And really, I could be the quote unquote
media, you touch on a couple things, but then we just, you know, it's like a, do a pod.
It's like an escape, yeah, yeah.
You just do a pot.
Maybe.
It's worth thinking about to where you would actually, you just come in and all you think
about is I'm going to put in 20 minutes on the bus.
Yeah.
Everything else is structured out by us to where it's cut and clear that you're just, you know,
you're doing your podcast.
Yeah.
We're thinking about.
Yeah.
We'll unpack that a little bit later.
What else we got in the, uh, tied in here?
Tight-in-U coming to town.
So there's, Tide-N-U is coming to town.
George Kittle, Greg Olson, and Travis Kelsey.
They all put on Tide-N-U, which just seems like it's coming in an annual thing.
They got a brand building off of it.
But a lot of the league's best tight-ins, a lot of the league's tight-ins.
I think some college guys are even coming to town to do Tide-N-U.
So hopefully we will have some guests.
You guys will get to hear from some of the tight-ins that come to town.
That'll be fun.
I know we're going to do a vlog.
Similar.
I don't know if you guys watch the PBR vlog.
last year. We went in the professional bull riding and they kind of hosted us and we got to see all
the ins and outs of everything. We're going to try to do something similar by creating a vlog for
Titan U, which will be made by the boy JP who's just stud with the vlogs. So it'll be on the lookout
for that stuff. But yeah, Titan U's coming to town. It's going to be hot out there.
NASCAR is right after. SummerSlam is potentially in like the people are asking if we
could go to Summer Slam and stuff. What day is Summer Slam? I don't know. Is it?
It might, I think it's something.
I think training camps has already started.
I'm in training camp.
Where's NASCAR, too?
When?
Right after, right after Tide in you.
Is it?
So you got Tide in you, 22nd and 24th, and NASCAR's 25th and 26.
I'm gone for all those.
I know, bro.
Heartbreak, dude.
Fucking heartbreak.
But that'll be cool.
But you can subscribe to the YouTube.
Watch it.
I'll watch it.
I'll subscribe.
I'll subscribe and write.
Give it a rating.
You give it a rating?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Definitely going to miss that.
What else is going on this thing?
I don't know if you want to talk about this.
AJ Brown says he's the best wide receiver to play for the Titans.
Okay.
Like, I'm the greatest football player of all time.
Right?
I am the best linebacker that's ever played for the Tennessee Titans.
And that's facts.
You can look that up.
I don't know what everybody, if anybody disagrees with that.
I'm the greatest reader.
I'm the greatest reader of all time.
Yeah, I'm the greatest Jurassic Park, Jurassic World Evolution 2 player of all time.
I'm the best Harry Potter reviewer of all time
I'm the greatest three beer chug
drinker of all time
I'm the best water drinker of all time
I'm the best Koolet drinker of all time
I'm the best relapse on Zins of all time
I'm the best Monopoly player of all time
That's not oh
I'm the best risk player of all time
I'm the best I'm the best Rocket League player of all time
We just start getting in our own personal stuff
I'm just saying like I'm the best this of all time
I'm the best dad of all time
That was a good one
I'm the best father of all time
I'm the best
Twitter of all time
Fuck
I'm the best Instagrammer of all time
Like what is that
What is the contest
He said it in?
Somebody I can find the
Twitter exchange
But it was just some random fan
Said something to him
And he said
Oh man let me find it
Yeah it's making it
It's making its rounds
On the media right now
Everybody's talking about it
He probably deleted it
He's a big delete guy right
Tweet delete
Tweet delete baby
Control all delete
No, this is it.
So this was the initial tweet.
Really nothing to do
with him being the greatest receiver of all time.
He's just tweeting about the weather.
Percent of the weather that doesn't...
Like the percentage of weather doesn't mean
what you think it is.
And then some Titans Finn came at him with this.
For the love of God, just stay off social media.
You're already a villain.
No need to make it a stupid villain.
Yeah.
And so for that thing, you'll fuck that guy.
Yeah.
What a netrocious.
What is it?
Henry given Sunday.
For the love of God, I was the best receiver to play for your franchise.
Jesus.
Shut up and move on.
You mad at the wrong person.
Oh, yeah.
He just.
I think what Asia should have done is taking him on a walk.
That's really, that's like, you do that.
Perfect walk material.
Right, right.
Like, that's like a perfect way of doing it before, like, making it,
continuing with making it about football because now everybody's grabbing it and making
something of it, obviously.
Yeah.
Which, you know, I mean, everybody can sit there and go back and forth and argue their,
argue their dicks off.
I am not a Titans franchise historian.
I've seen the tweets on people comparing this and that.
I think it's like Derek Mason maybe.
I saw Buck.
I saw Buck rising tweeting about who or who's the best.
Oh, Buck.
He just fucking lashes his trailer to anybody, huh?
Oh, yeah.
Buck is, Buck's one of a kind, man.
He's one of a kind.
He's 20 by training camp.
We'll see.
You guys being a huge Tennessee Titans fans, and you guys love AJ Brown,
How do you guys feel about AJ saying that?
Three years of the Titans is the greatest
Re receiver of all time?
Yeah, I don't know.
For the amount of time,
I don't think you can really say that.
If he had stayed longer,
I would have probably 100% agreed.
He was a dog.
I mean, as far as talent goes,
it's fucking hard to find a specimen like AJ.
Yeah, he's a fucking specimen now.
The drama.
Specimen of all.
It started coming about in the last six months
and the last year.
I don't know.
You can be a good player.
but then have that attitude
and then you kind of lose that edge, in my opinion.
I don't know.
It's just, it's a very loaded question.
I don't even know if there is a right answer to it.
We haven't had historically, like,
a pinpoint wide receiver in our franchise.
Yeah, we had ready to mom.
What was it?
Derek Mason had, like, he had an all-pro year,
pro-year, pro-ball year.
He had 3,000-plus yard seasons.
Were they all back-to-back early in his career?
Yeah, I think it's too hard.
How many thousand years ago have?
Just the one?
Wasn't it two?
Didn't he go back to back?
No.
900 something in year two?
The problem, the tough issue with AJ is his availability.
Availability.
Availability.
Availability hasn't been the best.
He's been injured like,
got you.
Right.
I think it's just like, yeah, it's just tough.
I think at the end of it, who cares?
Right.
Right.
Who cares?
if he was or he was
and he plays for the Eagles now.
You know what I'm saying?
If I went to a different team,
I could be like,
I was the best tackle to ever play for the Titans,
which is actually true.
Which is low-key.
Thanks.
I mean, all you do is,
I mean, look at this task voice.
You just hope that he would,
like, he'll be able to move on eventually.
He will.
I'm keeping up with that stuff.
Who, AJ?
Yeah, because it's like, dude.
But at the same time,
you're so sick, why are you just,
you're tweeting about,
yeah, but if you're AJ, like,
you're tweeting about,
the weather, like, you're just tweeting something
and you thought something was, like, you thought it was funny.
You had a funny conversation with your girl about weather.
And then some fan comes in
and talks about, for the love of God, stay off social media.
It's kind of like, you shut the fuck up, buddy.
Yeah.
You know what I mean? That's what I mean.
He should just like...
Right, right.
Continuing to keep it about the Titans, like going into his world,
roll around with the pigs, you get muddy.
Amen.
Shut the fuck up.
You know, if Asia did stay, though,
he is the greatest probably.
Eventually, yeah.
Like, it's, yeah, it's just,
It's his fourth year.
Yeah.
That's his fourth year.
Yeah, yeah, it is wild.
Yeah, based on...
You had one trouble?
I mean, yeah, I mean...
And based on that, now you see Terry McLaren.
Is McLaren or McLaren?
McLaren.
He's holding out, because he wants a similar situation like AJ.
Like, AJ kind of changed it up a little bit.
What makes AJ so crazy is just the fact that he wasn't...
He was going into his contract year.
Like, he wasn't up or nothing like that.
And you get a trade...
You get a trade in a big payday.
You don't stay on your rookie contract.
you also get a big payday.
So a lot of these younger,
especially with the hot receiver market now,
you see a lot of these guys,
it seems like,
trying to take on the same kind of,
on AJ's lead by look,
I'm not going to go either.
I think there's like a,
what AJ said happened.
I don't think happened.
You know what I'm saying?
What are we talking about right now?
I think he says on like what they offered
and what they actually offered.
I don't know.
I'm not in the office with John.
They keep that stuff close to the best,
but I don't know who told me that.
They made it like whether or not John and them,
made it public.
Like there was like,
someone made it public for the Titans, right?
Someone said something.
It was Buck.
Buck.
Buck said somebody told him.
Yeah, he did the timeline of everything that exchanged.
Like, yeah, there's, he said, she said, like, at the end of the day, like, both
sides didn't make it work out.
Yeah.
Listen, ages are, age is a boy.
Yeah.
You know, like it is, it's, it just sucks.
He's gone.
Right.
Because there's a teammate you want on your team.
For sure, because he's a beast.
He's a beast.
He's a beast.
Yes.
But it's just, you know, both sides got to come to an agreement.
And if one side's way off, like, it's not.
not both both,
if both sides wanted to be together for real,
they would have found a way to be together for real.
And that's what it comes down to.
You know what I'm Sam?
And now it's like,
it's interesting because these teams can now trade.
Like, look, we're not going to end up paying Terry.
So they could trade Terry, get some compensation for it,
which is what, what did the Titans get for trading A.J?
You have the 18th overall pick and then something else as well.
A third, I think a third round pick.
Another pick in the same year.
Like, you can get, you get draft picks.
You can get another way to get compensated by,
letting him go because that could be something that's a potential distraction
that on the line.
They're holding out and not playing ball
because these players know that they're going to get paid eventually.
It's just how long you won't hold out and risk it.
Yeah, and if you're going to do a contract year
and you want to get paid, that fear of, well, if I get hurt or something,
and not make as much money.
Yeah.
So if you're being a little quote unquote selfish now,
you get paid, it's all good.
Yeah, I mean, like, look, we all know it at the end of day.
Like players, they need to do whatever they can to get compensated.
Whatever you can.
as they want.
Yes.
Now, if somebody, like, feels like, I want to be in this city and I want to be on this
team and I will take less money, everybody's different.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't make it right or wrong.
Yeah, you might be, you'll probably be, like, more of a fan favorite because fans
want their favorite players to stay.
But if a dude makes a selfish decision and goes elsewhere because they want to get paid.
Yeah.
And they're just, they're literally just looking out for themselves.
There's nothing wrong with that.
That's why you work extremely hard to, like, get in these types of situations.
Now, right, wrong, and different.
Sometimes it gets messy, sometimes, it's shitty.
But ultimately, like, you're just looking out for your own stuff.
I feel like the word selfish is being used in a negative way.
Like, this is a selfish game on both sides.
Like, the GMs, the owners, they want the best talent for the least amount of money
and the players want the most amount of money for the least amount of time.
And it's just like, it's a selfish game all around.
So it's like, it is what it is.
Right.
It's all business, dude.
It's a business deal.
On the note of receivers of AJ being probably the biggest trade
And then Devante and Tyree,
Devante says that Derek Carr and Aaron Rogers are the same QB
I guess, well, you can probably...
Is that what he's quoted it?
I don't know, that was something I thought you had seen.
I didn't see that you had mentioned...
Yeah, bring up his quote,
but he did say their abilities like to say,
I think that's tough.
I'm a huge Derek Carr fan.
Derek Carr is the boy.
One day he's going to be on this bus
and I can't wait to ask him about that comment
and just kind of go back and forth on it.
I think that's like obviously hard to say, right?
Like we're talking about Aaron Rogers,
possibly the most talented QB of all time.
Yeah, I mean, yeah.
I know it's harder.
Yeah, yeah.
You go ahead.
Go off, King.
But yeah, I mean, I don't know what premise you're going off.
Like, they had a rapport because they played on the same team in college.
So they're boys.
Like Derek, I want to say got him a car, right?
Didn't he getting him a car?
Because he signed with him.
I think he's getting Devante Adams a car.
But I think they are like, as far as talent and ability, it's really similar if I'm keeping it real.
Okay, so Devonte right there could.
Yeah, but is there anything else after that?
Because that's a quote taken.
What else does the article say?
Where is that?
Where is that quote at in this article?
This is probably a quote from like a media days.
It's probably right off the-
Yeah, I think he was standing up at the podium.
Just trying to like credit Derek Carr more than digging Aaron Rogers.
I agree with that.
That's a good take, Jack.
Which Derek gets a lot of heat.
Like Derek's been somebody who's under the microscope
Literally every fucking year.
He's so good.
Yeah.
He's a stud, bro.
But I do think he takes a lot of heat.
So this could be a way of like boosting your boy,
which I'm all for it.
And he says they're really similar.
They can be really fucking similar.
It's not like the whole of the same thing.
I think it's a little like, you know,
it's like it's hard to say that when Aaron Rogers has put a career together like he has.
Back to back MVP's.
Yeah.
Right.
You know what I mean?
He's won a Super Bowl,
back to back MVP's.
Not that Derek can't do those things.
It's just until it happens,
which may be it will this year.
year because you got firepower of Josh Jacobs, Darren Waller, Devonte Adams, Hunter Renfro.
By the way, Hunter Renfro, hey, Hunter Renfro just got paid.
I got a two-year, $31, $32 million extension.
Stalin.
And I think him being a slot receiver in McDaniels' offense, when McDaniels had like Edelmans,
the West Welkers, like, them boys are going to eat, bro.
I think, hey, I'm high on the Raiders this year.
I'm high on the Raiders.
I think they got a lot of offensive power.
And then on defense, you know, you got the, you got the pass.
rushers. They're in like the toughest division, like arguably in the NFL.
You're, can they take the West?
I think they're, I think they're the favorites.
I know a lot of people are high on.
I think the Chiefs just by default until they get kind of dethrone.
They've been doing their thing the last few years.
I think they're in the media's eyes, odds-wise on the sports book and everything.
They're number one, best odds.
And number two, I think is the Chargers and then the Raiders are three.
I think the Raiders are like slept on with that, dude.
I just, yeah, don't step in the Broncos.
The Broncos are studs, too.
Yeah, they got a good team too.
They got a lot of good young guys, a lot of good young talent.
And Russell now, Mr. Unlimited, delivering the ball.
I feel like...
I feel like when you go to a different team,
like, for whatever reason you're, like, default is to say that
whoever was dishing you the ball is better than, you know,
whoever dishing the ball now is better than who was.
Right.
Because Tyree Kill, he's got a new podcast now
that he just came out with.
Oh, what?
Yeah.
Hey, we're...
Bro, it's crazy.
how many people have started a podcast and we were the first,
and like,
we're the first ones to do it.
Inspiring.
We're inspiring.
But he said on his podcast,
he made the comment that Tua is a lot more accurate than Pat Mahomes.
And he'd rather catch,
he'd rather catch the ball in his route than on like a scramble drill,
like backyard game type of thing.
Like, he wasn't taking shots,
but I think again, you're like,
it's the default thing to do is just hype up who's who you're with the ball right now.
Like, if I'm a receiver, whoever saw me the ball,
like, yeah, they're better than everybody.
Oh, he's better than Tom Brady.
Right.
Because you're building that report.
You're building that relationship.
Hey, throw me the ball.
But if he don't throw him with the ball during the season,
there will be problems with these wide receivers.
Yeah, there's still time.
Yeah.
Dude, Devante Adams going to the Raiders
because he's also been coming out talking about,
he had conversations with Aaron throughout the entire process,
and that's what kind of played into his decision to go with the Raiders,
which kind of hints that Aaron Rogers just might retire after this year.
Like, he just doesn't give a fuck.
Like, hey, bro, go do your thing somewhere else
because I'm probably not going to be here.
Yeah, don't trust that I'm going to be here.
But yeah, the Raiders got a shot, dude, if they make some noise, man.
NFL's a wild fucking place.
Yeah, I know you can't speak a whole lot.
The boy, Taylor, the reason he doesn't chime in, he's actually on a team.
And he's actually like, can't talk about that shit.
Like, he doesn't want to be the poster boy in a team meeting.
No, there's no reason to be either because, you know, who cares?
Yeah, yeah.
I think the one thing about me to eat don't like.
We care.
Right, boys?
I'm going to be a fan this year.
The boy's going to be a super fan.
You can't say who cares because now your boy cares.
You know what I mean?
You can't like look at me and be like, oh, who cares?
Like, because I'm going to be hyping you up.
I'm going to be hyping you up. I'm going to be hyping the boys up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
If you're like all these motherfuckers, like, who cares?
When you'll be hyping us up, a bit of a bandwagon guy.
I am a bit of a bandwagon guy.
Yeah.
But even though publicly I might not be there on the bandwagon guy, you know, you know how.
I know you support the boy.
Yeah, you know the boy.
You know the boys there all the time.
But I am fired up.
I'm fired up.
I'm fired up.
I'm fired up to kind of sit in a different seat this year a little bit.
That's not.
Is this thing?
Yeah, is this a retirement?
That's not a retirement thing.
But I'm just saying going in now that I've done it a couple,
like a couple years in row, there's no expectation of it or stress to where I'm like,
I'm excited to like, you get a little bit removed to where you start to like love the game more for like how you grew up loving it.
Like I'm like seeing the teams and listening to the drama a little bit more.
And I'm kind of like, oh, I'm excited of football season is coming up because I know I'm not like, I'm not in it right now.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, dude.
One day, hey, one day you'll know, we'll be on this bus and we'll be like, hey,
football season in 100 days
type of thing.
It just kind of brings
like that joy back of fandom.
But yeah, Devanti Adams.
Why the fuck would you say that about Carr?
Or the opposite.
Does that mean it in Rogers is retiring?
Yeah, dude.
Just fucking click bait.
Click, click bait.
Click bait.
Click bait.
Click bait.
Yeah.
That's solid, dude. Are we ready for one of our favorite segments of the week?
Oh, I forget about it.
I forgot about it.
Did you really?
Oh, I'm excited.
Listen, I'm going to come up with something, but I'm excited about me.
You go in your book real quick?
We'll see what I got ruined.
Well, well,
while you're checking out getting brewing,
it is time for one of our favorite segments of the week.
The shout out of the week.
And as always, we start with the man who gets riled the fastest out of anybody,
but always has a good time on the mic.
Blossie, what do you got for us?
This week, I got a shout out the going to your local butcher shop.
Oh.
So this week.
That's a good one.
Hold on, let him finish.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Take this picture for us, Blas.
So this week
Get you on the cam.
This week
I got to cook out
for a couple of friends
But I also got to introduce them
To a new meat
That they hadn't had before
Your meat.
Oh, okay, blood
I got to introduce them into tritip
I don't know if you have
Oh yeah, Tri-Tip hits now
West Coast
It's a West Coast cut
Well, it's known out on the West Coast
But this local butcher shop
Actually had it
And I was able to introduce
My Friends into Tri-Tip
Which they fell in love with
So shout out to
your local butcher shop. That's outstanding.
There's a place
in California, Cardiff, California,
and there's a grocery store, and they sell
Cardiff Crack, which is Tri-Tip, but it's
been seasoned already. Shit's unbelievable now.
It's probably one of my favorite stakes I've ever had
in my entire life. What a shout-out, I don't know if you shout out of the week.
Jackie, my man, paint us a picture.
What's going on?
To relapse himself.
Yeah, so let's say you're just
out at dinner with a friend,
and I'll paint the picture of something that is not my shoutout.
It's when, and you could be like a friend of yours,
but you go through like a couple minutes of silence,
and you feel obligated to say something just to like cut the, you know, the silence.
Yeah.
And that's awkward.
But my shout out, no free shout out of the week,
is non-awkward silences when you can be with someone,
whether it's at a dinner or just sitting around,
and you do not feel obligated to say anything.
And it's not weird at all.
There's like a very, like, safe, peaceful feeling about being with someone where you don't feel awkward at all about just sitting there for 30 minutes in silence.
And then something comes up.
You're like, oh, yeah, let's talk.
We go straight back to not talking.
I think that's true friendship.
You don't find that everywhere.
No, you don't.
Those non-awkward silences, that's something that is taken for granted in my life.
So shout out, never shout out to that.
I'll tell you that is the sign of a true friendship.
It is a sign of a true friendship for sure.
Outstanding next on the list.
Mr. Glyssie himself.
J.P.
Yes, sir.
The Glezy God.
Yeah, I'm sticking on the food train.
I had a nice meal last night.
Riley Green was at this restaurant.
Oh, Mr. Van, Mr. Vascular.
Jerry Stackhouse was there.
All right.
I know you're already probably thinking these are some famous people.
JP, what are you doing in there?
Can you afford that?
No, I can't afford it.
First is Hall's Chop House.
Fire.
Y'all got a, y'all got a,
Check it out.
Paul's Chop House.
Yeah.
Super good.
Came from South Carolina.
But my shoutout,
no free shoutout goes to when your roommates or friends' parents come to town
and bring you to dinner.
Oh, that's a nice one, dude.
Three meals like that.
Oh, my God.
There's nothing better, dude.
In college when your boys,
hey, mom and dad are in town.
Oh, where are we going to eat?
You go to the expensive place.
And they pay for in your order as much as you possibly can.
But you also say, when their parents come down,
they ask you to go to dinner.
dinner, you're like, ah, no, I'm good, man.
Like, I can't.
Exactly. I can't afford that type of thing.
And then they're just to see. And then they're like, oh, bro,
don't worry about it. They got it. And you're like,
fucking go, dude. It's over after that, dude.
It's fucking over. A lot of great shout out.
No, pre-shouts. Of the week so far.
Garrett, baby.
Mr. LaCross.
The Ocho.
Okay, that would be tight. Dodgeball was filmed on the Ocho.
Yeah, it was.
But, no, mine is going to go to, so you know it's getting hot outside.
We've been sitting on this bus for a while.
It could be a little swampy down below.
So my shout-out,
no free shout-out of the week,
goes to that spray that you spray down low.
It could be Gold Bond,
but for us it's Duke Cannon, obviously.
Yeah.
But the dry-ice spray to get your boys nice and cool
from a swampy hot day.
I'll tell you what I'm sweating right now.
I can use that.
We're all going to go on dying right now.
I'm hurting right now.
We're going to go use it after this.
Heat device.
We'll put it on each.
other. It'll be perfect, dude. That's a perfect. That'll be a good little Instagram ad for him.
Yeah, that'd be really nice. That's an outstanding shout out.
That's an outstanding shout out of the week. Willie?
Man, my shoutout of the week goes to cigars.
Oh. I feel like I'm late shouting Stogies out, but having a Stokey with the boys,
having a Stogie on your own, whatever the vibe is. Again, you know the boy loves backdeck sitting,
sitting outside.
And like I said,
whether you're with your boys
or on your own,
enjoying a little whiskey,
enjoying a beer,
but having a stogi,
there are a few things
I enjoy more than having a stogie.
Now, the hard part of the stogie
is whether you're going to hit a shower before bed,
that bedtime routine.
And no matter how much you brush,
the next day you wake up with a little,
you know, that cigar mouth,
that cigar mouth.
That's going a little crazy.
However, to me,
it's always worth it.
I fucking,
I would do it.
every day if I knew it wasn't that unhealthy.
That's a lot bad.
My shout-out.
Of the week goes to having a stogie.
That's a way better shout-out than your last week's shout-out.
What was mine last week?
The boat wave.
Which we all found out during that was just kind of just waving at people.
No.
Everyone does it.
My shout-out of the week.
And you took it.
You didn't know what the bull wave was.
Hang on, you just took it.
You can't just take a gun, shoot me in the fucking shoulder,
not expect me to, like, figure something out.
what I mean? No, I would have fully
expects you to not figure something out. You're not a medic.
You're going to be able to figure a gun wound out?
All right, man,
go.
My shoutout of
the week is
when it's really hot
outside and you have to go to
a convenience store or something, specifically
Costco in my mind. And you have to
depart from a real far, far away place.
Maybe it's way out there, it's a Saturday,
everybody's at Costco. And you're
walking, it's muggy outside. The heat
index is in the three-digit mark.
And as you get to the door, you get
hit with the fattest gust of wind
and AC bursts in your body,
rejuvenating you and giving you
life to something you thought you were about to lose
on your way to that Costco. So my shout-out
of the week
is the AC unit. Let's
fucking go, boys.
When you said heat, I was like, fuck, I was going to take it.
No, you weren't.
I was going to do ACs, that first breath
AC. Yes, dude. But Costco, number one, because when you
walk through the Costco and it hits you, your hair
but it'll fucking like hit your hair like that. You're like, oh my
God. And you fucking pull it back. You're like,
oh, I'm in an oasis of cool air right now.
It's a phenomenal feeling.
Phenomenal feeling, dude.
Love it. So the
boat wave. Go ahead.
What did you mean by that?
Well, I think in the thing, you said the boat wave
and you're just waving to people.
It's like everyone has that.
Motorcycle people have that.
People who drive Jeeps have that. People
who drive Raptors have that. When you're driving
past your neighbor, you wave to them.
It's kind of like a, it's just a polite thing you do
when you pass somebody.
So you don't like when somebody waves at you?
No, it's a polite thing to do.
And I even brought up when people don't wave back,
you're like, go fuck yourself, dude.
Yeah.
So you enjoy a nice wave.
Yeah.
I don't even like cigars.
I like the cigars.
Shout out better.
Yeah, that's fine.
I thought everybody else did a great job, though.
I thought you guys is phenomenal.
The ball is a real thing.
We can agree on that, right?
Look at the boys not in their head yes.
I like to comment that everybody is nodding their head.
Yeah, yeah.
Just for all the haters.
Yeah, dude.
Energy was a little different in this pod.
A little more quiet today.
A little more, uh, he just knew it was a long weekend for the boys, but still solid.
Yeah, I thought it was a good pod.
I enjoyed it.
A lot of storytelling, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
What did you guys think?
Phenomenal.
Phenomenal.
All right.
Maybe he doesn't.
We got one word.
Phenomenal.
All right.
Last thing up.
Oh, yeah, this merch.
Now, as you guys are watching, our new merch, our 4th of July merch is out, we created these fucking absolute hitters, dude, for the boys in red, white, and blue, and a freaking eagle.
An eagle with electricity.
Imagine electricity all around this eagle, and the eagle's picking up a bus, a red, white, and blue bus.
And that is, you got it.
It's our bus.
And this thing, this thing is fucking incredible.
It's sick.
It's fucking sick.
But yeah, it's on, it's in the merch store.

And you go to brands,
you hit bus with the boys
and these fucking
hitters, because that's
what they are their hitters.
I mean,
look at all that
electricity.
That thing is fire.
If you're a fan
of Will Compton,
you're a fan of these shirts.
There is.
There you go.
That's a good one.
Absolutely.
Great shirt.
You like shopping at Walmart

and we're picking up the bus.

And guess what?
We created our own podcast called,
Hey Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to it.
We're the first people to do podcasts.
We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.
Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it.
But, you know, tired and sick.

Hey, I'm Deanna Maria Riva,
and on my new podcast,
How Hard Can It Be?
I call on my Gen X squad
from Ohio to Hollywood
as we navigate
Midlife's most fantastic BS.
Unfiltered conversations
from night sweats to futas
to scheduling sex.
Wait, what sex?
Is it just me?
Or does every woman, my age,
want to look at Pinterest
instead of having sex sometimes?
They say we can't polish a turd,
but we're sure going to try.
so let's get blunt with laughs, tears, or tears of laughter.
