I'm Akela Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 is about both of those things. As I was watching these statues come down, I was thinking about what it meant that I grew up in a majority black city, in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people. Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. We've all been there. We've had seasons that have shaken everything.

Starting point is 00:05:28 at the crib for like four nights in a row and then like I was like all right like what's going on she's she's got to like say like okay I'm going to go home and like get some new clothes or like something like that like and leave and she just like wasn't doing it so then I was just like so what's the game plan yeah I was like well you're going to go home soon like and she was like oh yeah Like, if you want me to leave, I will. She hit me with that. So she flipped it on me. And then I'm like, well, it's not that I want you to leave or anything.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Just, like, need my personal time and stuff. So that was a funny story early on. And, yeah, pretty much, like, I don't even think, like, I asked her to move in with me. It's just, like, kind of happened. And it's been great. That's how it goes down. Every day is amazing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Men are always just caught up guard. It's like, 100%. How can I sneak upstairs? go play video games. Yeah. Cool. Like, it is funny the first time,
Starting point is 00:06:30 like you're realizing, you finding out you're moving in with somebody without even knowing. Yeah. And that whole, they haven't got their clothes in a while. Using the washer and dryer.
Starting point is 00:06:38 You come home, they've cooked a little something. You're like, I'm supposed to get online with the boys. Yeah. You cool if I, yeah, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:06:45 So how did that conversation end up? This kind of was like, yeah, if you want me to leave and you're like, no, I don't want you to leave. And she's like, okay.
Starting point is 00:06:50 I was like, I just need some, like, I'm used to my personal time, And I was like, uh, like, I was like, yeah, like, I want to go hang out with my boys. Like, uh, so like, yeah. That's pretty much how it probably happened. Like literally, literally with me saying like, so yeah, like.
Starting point is 00:07:14 As long as that's cool, you got a place to stay. Yeah. Nice. You know it comes next, right? Mm-hmm. That little Rinkski. Yeah. That little thing on the finger.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Has you done any of the things like, hey, so no tail line on this whole thing right here it's interesting oh did you hear about janis she just got engaged yeah oh my gosh trisha just got engaged see look how beautiful the ring is i don't like that ring i actually like a squared off throwing some hints there and there yeah um she hinted at all yeah yes it's kind a little bit more private with that but uh yeah yeah 100% yeah that was a stupid question there's there's there's one i didn't ex we're together like seven eight years i remember they were they were they were We were on like a double date. They were going on about somebody getting engaged in like a short period of time.
Starting point is 00:08:01 And me and my boy, we kind of got a couple stairs. And I just said, when you know what you want. Oh, which I feel like makes it worse, being it's seven years. It did make it worse. I was with a girl when I'm like, hey, when you know, you know. Yeah, I was with a girl when I first got to Nashville. And we were dating for like three months. And she was going off about something one day.
Starting point is 00:08:20 And I looked there and go, if I propose you right now, you would say yes, wouldn't you? She's like, yeah, I would. I thought, I got to, I got that. That's crazy. It's been three months. What are we talking about here? I know. That was 2014, Taylor, 2016, Taylor.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Five weeks engaged. Two months. You go, you know, you know. When you know, you know. You know, you know. A wild deal. What was the reason for Miami Beach? Why did you decide to turn down there?
Starting point is 00:08:47 Because you strike me as a cat that just jumps around when he trains. I know one year you're in New Jersey. We had that great offseason calls about that one year. Yeah, we don't. So you kind of jump all over the place. You just haven't found a place you love the most. Yeah. And Miami Beach was definitely like my favorite.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Just like the first day I got there and like walking around like outside, beautiful weather, sun setting. And the water just looked so like light blue and just so nice down there. Good food. Got a good gym to train that down there. It's like what else do you need? And you could go to the beach every day after training. It's cool. It's a nice little set.
Starting point is 00:09:25 You're feeling healthy? Yeah, feeling great. I know you've had some ups and downs in the recent years. Yeah. For sure. Like you're going to take somebody's life out there? I felt like last year was a great step in the right direction. Two years ago, definitely not too proud of that year that I had on the field.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Why is that? Performance, mostly. Are you, like, playing through injury when this performance is, like, at a decline? Are there things that you would have come back differently? Yeah. I don't think you want to make excuses because like everyone in the league is like going through something like when it's week eight or week 10. Like everyone's got something that they're doing with, something that they're getting treatment on. So no excuses at all.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Like, you know, we've all played through something before and had like the best game of our lives. Like playing through that shit. So, you know, no. excuses. But yeah, last year was great with Shane coming in, Shane Steichen, and Tony Sparano, Jr. My offensive line coach, love him. And, you know, we just had fun every day at work, like, bullshitting in the meeting rooms, getting our work done, and, like, really dialing in on the technique and the fundamentals and stuff. And, yeah, it was, like, I was, like, happy to be at the facility every day and like excited to and um yeah it was it was a fun year last year um you know
Starting point is 00:10:59 dealt with some injuries with the AR getting heard and garner stepped in did a great job and uh you know i think we went past other people's expectations which like who gives a fuck but um it was a good step in the right direction like we won uh close games like gritty games and uh i'm i'm excited for this year for sure. Personally, body's feeling great. And I feel like I'm even more dialed in than last year. And then for the team, too, like getting like everyone healthy, everyone in another year of experience. And then like another year under this coaching staff, like I think we can have a great year. When you talk about like you're more dialed than this year than you ever have, and like what are the things that you changed off the field that are helping you go into this year?
Starting point is 00:11:48 because boys obviously your resume is insane pro bowl is all pros but every year you're getting older and older and father time inevitably takes up with all of us yeah 100% I think uh you know when every every year you're evaluating yourself so um after two years ago of like having like a bad year evaluate okay what did I do in the off season that might have contributed to this and then changing up my offseason program to have a better year of like fixing some of the negatives that I had as a player. So I had a good offseason last year and I feel like this after this past season, evaluating this season, now I was able to evaluate it even more so and really focus on like things I need
Starting point is 00:12:45 to improve on. So, yeah. When you were saying something earlier, like you're having fun going to work, is that more staff-induced, culture-induced, just being healthier? It's definitely a combination of everything, but just like our offensive line coach is fucking awesome. Who's your own coach there? Tony Sparano, Jr.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Staparano. Where do you come from before that? He was with Jacksonville, I believe. as an assistant offensive line coach um no sorry giants as an assistant offensive line coach he wasn't jacksonville and uh yeah young dude he's like 36 or 38 years old and just like one of the boys um but also like your coach first but he cares about you as a person as a player and um best ones to have yeah dude and he's italian too so you know he's got like he's got like it's of shit to Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:45 And too, like, this is a pod that has had some bad old line coaches. It's like he's talking really highly of this one that must have meant the one before. Maybe not as enjoyable. Oh, you're trying to connect the knowledge. And I'm saying, yeah, I'm just saying like this, trust me, this is a safe space like, you know, Taylor over here. I mean, to understand. 100% the whole time you were talking. You want me to yam on Keith Carter right now?
Starting point is 00:14:07 No, no, no, no, no, no. He's caught enough bullets from me. He has caught up. Because I feel like every time I've spoke about them, like there's something that comes out because the Jets organization is like always waiting to get somebody. You know the players, the boys are.
Starting point is 00:14:22 They're like, the boys are like, keep preaching, brother. Yeah. Keep fucking preaching. Please keep doing it. It's tough.
Starting point is 00:14:27 But yeah, dude, having a good offensive line coach makes your world so much better. Just position. Just August to January. And you know, because everyone thinks what the head coach and then the OC. And people really.
Starting point is 00:14:40 don't dive into the position coach and how like you're with that dude the most out of any other coach. They're the most important one. He makes or breaks your mood a lot of times. It's all yeah, got to be a steel wall. Nothing gets in, nothing gets out kind of vault. But, bro, you get to week eight.
Starting point is 00:14:55 And it's been an absolute grind. We're past a halfway point of season. If you include camp, you just want some good vibes around you. You want that guy to give you a pat in the ass. If it has been going well, tell him it's going to get better. If it's been going well, tell you to keep it up. Those type of vibes.
Starting point is 00:15:09 Yeah. That's Esperano. Yeah, no, he's great. And he cares about like every single guy in the room, like from the guys in the first chairs to the back of the room. And it makes everyone feel important. Everyone has a voice on the offensive line room and can ask a question or, you know, crack a joke. And like it's the closest knit. Yeah, rip a fart.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Like I do that shit all the time. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You know he's a salt goat, dude. Yeah, so I guess the closest our group has been since I've been there, and it's really special. Are you a vocal guy? Are you a first chair, vocal?
Starting point is 00:15:52 No, I'm pretty vocal in there, yeah. Are you really? Yeah. See, I would have guessed the opposite. I know, same. I thought this problem just going to be able to do it like Big Q. Q, just kind of. He just kind of nod.
Starting point is 00:16:01 Put his hand up. Just does it right all the time type of guy. You're a vocal leader. I wouldn't say too much of a vocal leader just like an opportunity presents itself speak up like but not going out of my way to say some bullshit Is it wild seeing like new crops of guys come in every year
Starting point is 00:16:24 These 21 22 year olds and they are a fan of you? Yeah I feel like most guys like don't try to like do that And like you know Suck you off type of deal because like the whole group will get after and be like, dude, shut the, yeah, exactly. I've been seeing that on the golf. Dude, he's been going nuts. But, yeah, it's cool.
Starting point is 00:16:50 And we're bringing in like good dudes. Like we brought in three rookies this year and they're like all good dudes and not shithead. So that's good. Yeah. How impressive is Anthony Richardson? Very, very. What do we have to look out for with him this year? Listen

Starting point is 00:20:36 or wherever you get your podcasts. You know, he... Because he's one of the one of the ones, that basically doesn't get he doesn't get talked about you got Trevor Lawrence right 11th kind of had the year when he came on the scene last year obviously C.J. Stroud um AR kind of had some injuries that took him out of the conversation but people were pretty like impressed with how he started just his rookie year. No he was electric like when he was in there and he's absolute freak like just weighing in like after practice I like 250 pounds like he's like ginormous um he can
Starting point is 00:21:10 launch the ball and he can be accurate with it too like the plays that he can make like some of the ones that you've seen like the flashes of it it's like oh my goodness like this guy's special but then also how he goes about his business and like um he he's not very vocal i would say but like he just goes about his business in a way that he's handling it and he's ready at all times and um Yeah, he's special, dude. That's awesome. Yeah. I think he's, I think he's, I think, I mean, you look at the whole AFC South in general, dude.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Like, the oldest guy is Trevor Lawrence. Everybody else is going on their second year. So it's going to be, like, in a couple years, the AFC South is going to be, like, the division to deal with. Yeah. If all of these guys keep going on the path that people think they're going to go down. Just going to want him to slide. Yeah, he went to Florida, right? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:04 He kind of, like, came on the scene. Like, he had a crazy last year. Triple backflips. Dude. Like, like 80 yards. Yeah. I have a friend that lives down where he trains. I don't know if he trains in Jacksonville or wherever,
Starting point is 00:22:15 but it's a friend of a friend got a flat tire on the side of the road, and Anthony Richardson was the one that pulled over and helped him out. Yeah, that's the type of duty is. For real? Yeah. Hey, that's awesome. That is badass, dude. Yeah, this kid is a freak, man.
Starting point is 00:22:31 You got a quarterback that can do that. Even the guys that are rushing, they have to think, like, oh, we have to stay in our lanes the whole time. It makes it so much easier to walk. Don't rush behind. And we didn't have JT in the beginning of that. the year either um i don't think yeah he was dealing with something right uh yeah um i don't think they got to play with each other so um just having both of them in the backfield uh is crazy
Starting point is 00:22:56 that is insane yeah the spin move dude what if you can talk about it what happened with shack leonard um with shack uh is that like contract stuff No, no. Just another thing of, like, father time and, like, injuries filing up, like, yeah. He was the same year as you, right? He was a savage. Not so he still can because he's with the Eagles now, right? I mean.
Starting point is 00:23:26 I was surprised that they're, you know, that a breakup or whatever occurred in the middle of the years. I think he got cut, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah. I don't want to, like, talk into his business or anything. Yeah, for sure. But, like, great dude, unbelievable player. and if he can just like figure out how to get healthy and like get back like yeah he'll be great
Starting point is 00:23:49 he's arms are down to his knees yeah he's a he was a freak yeah i would just say like health is like the most important thing yeah yeah yeah yeah it's a bummer to show everyone because he was the cat that you watch on film on the defense if you just got if you block this guy you got a shot to gain some yards we're in the ball i mean the amount of turnovers he caused insane his ability target in his first. We were playing, we were playing y'all one year and he was like, I don't care if I get ran over by Derek Kendry. I'm trying to get the ball out.
Starting point is 00:24:17 And there's really a play of him taking into like a round, into the boundary. And you can see Shaq just flow his body just to punch him, just gets railroaded. You just stands up he didn't give a fuck because he was just literally trying to punch the ball out. All he cared about. And that is a dude did not care how you look on film just to get, get something done is awesome. Yeah. And he seemed like he was a good leader too. Hell of a leader.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Yeah. That's unreal. It's always heartbreaking to see a breakup happen between one franchise the other. Very personable dude. Treated everyone the same in the building. Always like asking how you're doing and stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:54 Will was telling me he had himself a nice little plan on you. Clint, you want to talk about that? He did. He did, yeah. Howard, that had to hurt a little bit. It definitely did. Because you knew it's one thing that somebody gets a tackle on you. It's another thing when that person they got tackling you has a platform to talk about
Starting point is 00:25:08 that, it's actually got on you. Not only that, but that. guys like not even supposed to be in you know. Gave a little shock shit inside. I remember like even making it play too. I was like grinning when I got up being like, oh, I kind of got cute right there. Dude, I, that's that. Take you through it.
Starting point is 00:25:25 What was it? I mean, I don't, I don't think about that play, but now that it was brought up, like, that one definitely stung where like, I was just like, fuck. Like, and I walk back to the huddle, like, just like reevaluating shit. Like, God, fucking. Got to go to the next play, but at that moment, there's no way you're getting the next play. It was, to Will's credit, it was a great play by him. It was silky. It was smooth.
Starting point is 00:25:50 What happened? It was just, I think it was like inside. I'm sure Will could go on his favorites on his phone or just be like, oh, this is what happened. I do need to find it. I got the NFL plus up, but we'll have to find it and drop in the chat later. You know, just protecting the egg out. He had a three tech and problem. I'm going to be playing beer pong in a couple days.
Starting point is 00:26:07 You're going to be like, just like that game, boy. that will be brought up yeah because when you were even an option to come on well it was like you know I got his ass right I didn't take you on the day that's awesome you know Q's like me when it gets drunk he gets a little physical yeah I mean you like your birthday party a few years ago when we had basically like the beer games oh yeah that beer pong tournament you guys won in death cup
Starting point is 00:26:31 dude oh yeah I forgot about that wait you're talking about when uh we played wasn't that someone that was something that was me and Neely that might have been was not Neely. Yes, it was me and Neely, and we were playing you guys, and we were obviously, like, we're all ready to just beat each other. You guys won on a death cup. Like, either you were Keith.
Starting point is 00:26:50 I think Neely was holding his strength. Hughes and he watched this and banks it off of Neely's shirt. And it was like early in the game, like 10 cups and nine cups or something. It was over here, full cup. When it was like, that's guy, we would just start. It was awesome. Big time pool basketball guy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Oh, Q is? I mean, you can just tell he's going to do work with. those boards. Dude, I'm not a Are we playing pool basketball? Yeah, of course. You and Taylor. That gets so physical.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Two, it does. It does. I see, I love it. The idea of pool basketball is way more fun than actually playing pool basketball.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Yeah. Because it's just way too... You don't agree with that at all. No, I honestly didn't hear what he said. So I was just like, yeah, yeah. I was just thinking of something else.
Starting point is 00:27:30 You know why he doesn't agree? He's because he's massive and he doesn't give a fuck. He's great at pool basketball. You think anybody's moving him? I bet you I can get a point on it. I don't think you could, bro.
Starting point is 00:27:39 You're like 60 pounds. He's going to toss you around. Maybe, but I'm... And look at the length of his arms. I can move in there, dude. You see me in the water, JP. I can move. I mean, Taylor's got the home court advantage.
Starting point is 00:27:49 True. I know that hoop. We got to count that in. You know the hoop, yeah. I know the hoop. I know my range is on the hoop. You know the four. How to grip the four.
Starting point is 00:27:55 Exactly, dude. My toes turn to like primate toes. I start gripping that shit everywhere. This is what you have to look forward to tomorrow. Those of you watching this episode, Beer Games Championship, the world has taken place. However,
Starting point is 00:28:07 Quintness, dove in the day before beer games championship of the world. And now we're watching a couple of clips right now that I'm sure Mitch Carsley will show for all of you watching on YouTube. I was okay, yo. Yeah, low key, you more yogh known.

Starting point is 00:28:35 You guys, yeah, but you guys kind of has a close word going through me for a little bit. Yeah, yeah. I think a couple like birthday thanks or something. You know Shane hates that we're saying how much Shane loves cute right now. But you're his number one. That's crazy. You were. I don't think you are anymore. It might be like that because I never went to that comedy show in Indy.
Starting point is 00:28:56 Yeah. I remember when you guys were trying to get me to go. Yeah, he's like, I won't say he, but there was a, I would tell him, I will suck him off if he comes to the show. someone said that yeah someone said someone said it guy loves Notre Dame yeah loves it yeah that's it yeah it's all I got and where do we go from this if you uh do we continue to if you had to go to any other school other than Notre Dame where would you go um big 10 colors blue and yeah I think it was uh between like Ohio State and Penn State after Notre Dame yeah how far ahead was Notre Dame over Ohio State and Penn State very yeah What about Notre Dame was I?
Starting point is 00:29:41 Was it South Bend? No, no. Was it the linebacker? It wasn't South Bend, but it wasn't the linebacker? Yeah, dude, just the offensive line culture there was amazing. With like Zach Martin there and Chris Watt and all these other dudes. So like seeing them and just like, the way they try to help each other get better.
Starting point is 00:30:11 And then obviously the coach, their coach, Eastan was like phenomenal seeing the way he attacked every day and like gave 100% in the meeting rooms. And then on the field and like coach guys to get better. I knew that was the way I wanted to be coached. And like that was the group that I wanted to join. And then I thought Notre Dame was like a beautiful campus too and the great academics there.
Starting point is 00:30:35 Do you ever see yourself playing anywhere else other than indie? uh now were you at your deal how many more years you got uh three oh it got you locked up right now i'm gonna have to go back to that table though he might have just went back to the table i think you got paid what two years ago uh yeah yeah two years you got that five year that five year piece 80 something right mm-hmm yeah dude four year 80 millie congratulations that was awesome man you need to buy a sleigh congratulations two years later what Yeah, I know. What was your first big purchase?
Starting point is 00:31:18 I do have a Ford Bronco, but I purchased that before the contract. Like when you get a deal, you re-up the $80 million. What are you about to say, let's fucking go get this? Anything. Like, but it was actually maybe the best answer. Yeah. At first I'm like, yo, what are you talking about? And I'm like, oh, he can legit buy anything.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Yeah, just go get anything. Yeah. I mean, there wasn't anything like super big. My Bronco was pretty expensive, but other than that, it's just like little shit here and there where it's like, fuck it, it's $60, $80. Like Amazon, like I buy so much on Amazon. So many boxes just show up that. So many trinkets. You do your priority on Uber Eats every time.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Yeah. You buy a place in Miami Beach? I did, yeah. that would be one that would yeah yeah that would be one so you got you got indiana miami beach that's it bahamas no cabbo cabbo oh yeah you're a big cobo guy right i think no with the cobo with the cobo with uh i went to cobo with uh taylor and then another one with uh my friends um it's a good time it's a really good time with you yeah we had a great time yeah that place you guys had will didn't show up either come more yeah he has he has a good time yeah he has
Starting point is 00:32:39 actually did bail on that, didn't you? You were kind of supposed to go. Did I bail? I don't think I bailed. Was he supposed to go to Blackberry with you when I went with you? No. And he bailed on that? No.
Starting point is 00:32:49 The day when Taylor operates is he just tries to get you to commit when he says it. And I'm not the most committal person. He's a very persuasive. So he could flip it that I bailed, but I'm not like. I think you even try to not come at first. When we were going to Cobble, I was like, bro, you're here. He was staying in an airstream on the property we were staying at it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Just chilling. No AC, nothing. Just a box of chocolates and a bed for him. He was just hanging. And we would go get these workouts in and then just go hang out with Johnny. Yeah. And the chickens. Cool.
Starting point is 00:33:16 That was like the most fun. You hear about Pula? Passed away. Oh, man. Who's Pula? This guy named Johnny, uh, he owns his property on the bluff in, uh, Carl's Bab or Encinitas. And he has like the big house and then there's like two studio like small little suites. He stays in one of the studios.
Starting point is 00:33:33 And we would stay in the house. And then he had this air stream that he just like had. Nothing hooked up to. or nothing. So Q had, well, you see like an extended stay right by the hotel, right by the exos, Carl's bat. Right. And Q, we met the Pro Bowl and we became boys. Lo-key Q thought I was a doucheback before. Yeah, no idea. And friends. And I was like, dude, just come stay. Just come stay with us and hang out. And so he would just come and hang out. And it'd be just me, tailing and him. Yeah. And when? So who's Pula? Pula is Johnny's dog.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Oh, who was Johnny's dog? The dog would just bite things or had no teeth. It was an awesome dog. It was a good dog. It was a good boy. You thought Taylor was a douchebag. Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Why did you think that? Just... Go ahead. So you can speak freely. Well, Taylor is a bit of a trailblazer, a trend setter, you know. Very unlike other offensive linemen that I've been around,
Starting point is 00:34:35 which, like, you guys would probably cover it already, but just with all the posting on social media and stuff. And I was like, that's exactly what offensive linemen aren't supposed to be. So I just always assumed that Taylor was a douchebag. And then like, I might have heard that he like spitting someone's face once, like on the football field. You, Dad, you actually heard that before? My rookie year. I heard that happen to one of our rookie D.Ns.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Oh, what? Oh, Taylor's done it more than once? Huh? Taylor's done it more than once because he's known for spitting on T.J. Watt. Oh, really? That's not what I'm known for, but that is that's like my one mark. What is it? Yeah, Hawk, Taq.
Starting point is 00:35:18 Hawk, yeah. Hold on now. Taylor Hawke. Taylor, Hock, too. To one of your rookie D.N. That was a, he said that, you know. He's probably lying. It's he say, yeah.

Starting point is 00:39:33 You think so? Yeah. I mean, unless there's like video evidence of it, I'm going to go ahead and say I did not do that. And then I... Yeah, it's funny. I thought he was going to say T.J. And somebody new comes into the fold.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Yeah, that is, well, no, yeah. So you thought I was a douchebeck because I was spitting on people? No, not necessarily this bitch. It's like being like kind of the opposite on social media of what like an offensive lineman like is what I thought like is supposed to be. So keep your head down at work. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then meeting Taylor at like the Pro Bowl and getting to hang out with him like just
Starting point is 00:40:11 impossible not to laugh and have a smile on your face around him and then just like just like getting into your personal life and like asking you questions and stuff and um it's like so easy to become his friend and well it wasn't easy because like part of me is like i'm supposed to hate this guy like i always thought he's a douche on social like blah blah blah and then uh you know you just you just give in you're just like all right this is my boy uh so yeah um yeah taylor's a great That did feel good.

Like, if you get teammates involved. If you were trapped on an island in the middle of nowhere and had no supplies, what three teammates would you pick to help you survive?

Starting point is 00:49:22 Maybe Delaney? No. He's got a farm, but you can't be wearing those kind of clothes or a live show while also living on a farm. Yeah, but this is, we're talking about survival. I don't think Delaney surviving, but just because you live on property does not mean you can survive. Maybe I give him more credit than you do.
Starting point is 00:49:38 Maybe you do. I think you do. We just prove that. but i believe in you delaney i know that was a bummer i shouldn't have done that i'm gonna go ben jones give me traelon burkes i think that's a good a dish right there

Starting point is 00:50:15 You know, who I probably bring in is Roosie. I think Roos is good. He's all about watching that show alone. He loves me eater. Okay. He's from Tejas, so he understands the, I think he would understand how to get things done. I would legit sit back and just hope we all didn't die. Because I would not bring anything to the table.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Yeah, absolutely nothing. I would say for me, two offensive linemen, Braden Smith and Danny Penner Danny Penner big outdoorsman Fisherman and then just like camping and hiking and shit so I think that has a place some value
Starting point is 00:50:54 Braden Smith big gardener and like he's a big boy if anything does happen like I think the three of us will be able to like take on whatever comes at us whether it's a bear yeah bear or something that animal who knows
Starting point is 00:51:09 and then Michael Pittman, good vibes, owns his own farm, Pittman Farms, and probably knows how to do some farming type shit. Yeah. Seems like a good squad. Seems like a great squad.
Starting point is 00:51:24 If you were trapped in a mall, oh, please answer this question. Go ahead, Will. You're trapped in a mall, and they release either a gorilla that's on like, he takes a shot of what's, adrenaline,
Starting point is 00:51:38 or five black mambas. shot up with adrenaline. And it's just you and the animals in the mall. Which one are you surviving? 24 hours to survive. Black mamba's or snakes, right? Yes. Very venomous, dangerous snakes.
Starting point is 00:51:55 Mischievous. They're in the Bible as the devil. What did we shoot them up with? Some sort of adrenaline. They both have intent to kill. Yeah. They both have intent to kill. That's important.
Starting point is 00:52:05 There it is right there. Look at that thing. Oh, take it off, dude. Bro. I am definitely. I am definitely going mambus. You're taking the mambas? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:52:17 I see how it was a gorilla. Gora? Yeah. Why? I'm just terrified of snakes. Like, I feel like dying and hearing as your last one. Well, that would suck getting like swallowed like that. Like if a gorilla gets you, like they're getting you when your adrenaline's at its highest.
Starting point is 00:52:35 You're in straight, fight or flight the entire time. Like you know you're dead. Yeah, but what if you want to survive, bro? You got kids at home. Yeah, I know I'm trying to survive. You're going to survive a gorilla running around the mall, swinging and shit. No, I feel like you have no chance. That one's hurt.
Starting point is 00:52:52 Those mambas, I think you could outrun them. You see? I don't know, man. That's your first thing. And then you're going to relax. Escalators, just keep going up the escalator, down the escalator. Like, who knows they're smart enough to, like, know. They're divide and conquer.
Starting point is 00:53:05 There's five of those boys. Yeah, one at each exit and then one for you to jump. Yeah, you might be able to kill the mambus. He kind of makes a decent point. Hey, look at the one, the gorilla with his back, just standing up straight. Yeah, gorillas, man. That's what you guys think the gorilla's going to be doing, if you take the gorilla. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:53:26 All right, fair, fair, fair, fair. I stand by my response for the first time. Snakes are the scariest stand in the world. We're dying. Snakes are terrifying. Shut up, no for shout out? Yeah. Yeah, wait. Also, like, the hissing over.

Starting point is 00:57:55 I'll press down or up, go down at upper level, and then while it's halfway, I'll hit the alarm. So it stops right there, so there's no one to open it. What of the elevator? Huh?
Starting point is 00:58:05 He'll be able to swing to that. So easy. Sweet to what? He thinks he's going to get the ducks? That big ass gorilla? You're all high, man. What if it's a... Antiannis, I'm chilling.

You don't have access to, you need a staff. Oh, so now we're changing the rules. I mean, you're acting like we can't get the staff elevator. We have the whole mall to ourselves.

Starting point is 00:59:00 this is like a little bit of a hide and seek too like do we have a chance to go like find a good spot Yeah, oh yeah, I think so. And then it gets released? I think so you get some time. So you get some time? Because I'm thinking like...
Starting point is 00:59:13 The premise is we started on opposite sides of the mall. Opposite sides of the mall? Okay. Yeah, you go to the inter-in. And then it's 24-hour starts. Yeah. Sprint to that anti-anis. You know, the gorilla's fucking coming.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Yeah, what is... Why do you want to... There's people in there serving you. He loves anti-anians. What if you, like, find, like, a bunch of bananas or, like, some food for the gorilla. Yeah, you just start... You become friends with the gorilla.
Starting point is 00:59:36 you use as adrenaline against him yeah face time the gorilla has the girl say i love you has been in face time become boys yeah go hunt down snakes together now you're winning on all ends i like that even though we've already asked that question before we have but i figured he'd be good he'd be good with that answer yeah maybe there's a dispensary in the mall you just like be like here you go man you get him high yeah okay so you just took this angry gorilla and you just Snickers bar like you're not yourself when you There you go.

Starting point is 01:00:10 That's a, I feel like you're great with hypotheticals. You're a big hypothetical. That's a big offensive line characteristic to have. He's playing a hypothetical game. Should we do shoutouts? Yeah. Do you know shout out, no free shout out, yeah? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:23 The small things in life. Yeah, he's just said he knew. Yeah, yeah. I just, so with you, Mitch. My birthday was this weekend on Friday. So shout I know if you shout out of your shout out just kind of having the date to yourself and like I'm not one who normally likes all the like a massive party or anything or like needs to do something extravagance.
Starting point is 01:00:47 So just kind of having like a low key birthday. You see the people you want to see. You're around the people you want to be around with and you can do whatever you want to do. So shout out just having your birthday and being able to do what you want. Nice, man. My shout out might come back and bite me in the ass. but the Vols forced a game three last night in the College World Series championship.
Starting point is 01:01:13 They play tonight, which will actually be yesterday. So I'm praying to God that Tony V has these boys dialed in. And so my shout out just goes to the balls, working hard all year and a Tony Vee, a friend of the pod. Friend of the pod. Yeah, shout out to Vals. My shout-out, no free shout-out goes to the walls in high school, middle school, elementary school,
Starting point is 01:01:35 those concrete walls. And I saw this on Twitter that you run your finger through. Oh, yeah. When you're walking across. That's a good way. I saw it and I was like, God, I missed that. I don't know the last time I've seen one of these walls other than in the school. What you got, Shermy?
Starting point is 01:01:56 Or go ahead. No, Sherrym, you. Yeah, Sherm. All right. Pre-game spews. I spewed this morning for no reason at all. What's that mean? I threw up.
Starting point is 01:02:07 Oh, okay. I was brushing my teeth. and I think I was on the tongue a little too long, and I just vombed. But I, like, I feel locked in today. I feel good after that throw-up. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:19 It was great. You, yeah. I was deep. I got pretty deep. Hygiene. Very critical. Yeah. Good breath.
Starting point is 01:02:26 Got to do it. Sherm, love the honesty, and just, like, love your enthusiasm and happiness for throwing up this morning. Thank you, dude. It's pretty cool, man. Those are good vibes. You brought it. If I were to go to the score out,
Starting point is 01:02:38 I think, my shout-out, no-free shout-out would be the one water fountain in the school that's like extra cold and it's got a good stream and it's got that green on it, you know? It's like, it's like the best tasting one. What do you mean by green? It might have like a little mold on.
Starting point is 01:02:56 It's got a little grit to it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's been there. It's stood the test of time and it's just always there for you when you need it the most right after gym class after H. their H.Y. Basketball game, like, whatever. But I'd say my shout-out, no-free shout-out would be golf right now.
Starting point is 01:03:17 I've been getting into that for the last six weeks and just been like enjoying it, hating it, loving it, doing it with my friends and just having a good time, being out in nature. And, you know, whether it's a good round to bat around, you're just, the sun's out. you're around nature hanging out with the boys having a good time and um you know who's got it better than us you know you just just just just got a 10 doesn't matter doesn't matter you just just scored a 10 like having a great time doesn't matter i like that especially the water fountain i like the water fountain one yeah what you got oh me go yeah um shout out birthday barbecues

Her cousin Chase, his birthday is June 25th. So this weekend we did a little barbecue birthday at our grandparents' house. And it was just, you know, grilling meats, hanging out, throwing a pigskin around, just overall great vibes. And it was just, it's easy, man. Who is on the grill? You're not going to believe this.
Starting point is 01:04:30 Taylorin's mom marinated the meats. And I was joking about, hey, I'll grill. I'll grill. And they put my ass on the grill. they put me on there but I definitely made somebody watch me the whole time because I got nervous. Was it fun? Yeah, had a good time.
Starting point is 01:04:42 I enjoyed it quite a bit. I might have to get into that smoke in the meats game. I know you've been in that for a while. It's a fun game. Yeah, I've been going back and forth with Cousson. I might get some tips and just start diving in. Yeah, rock that pellet grill a little bit. Yeah, get after that little Trager piece.
Starting point is 01:04:57 Let it have a little fun. I don't know what my shoutout is. You've had six people go. I know. How many shoutouts do you think you've been? given on the bus 282 too many
Starting point is 01:05:10 and just because I think of some and then I feel like they've already been used shout out our victory in beer game championship of the world yeah speaking
Starting point is 01:05:23 into existence with my boy Brad in town we were up till probably midnight last night reminiscing on some old stories so I'll say when your old friends come to town
Starting point is 01:05:32 and you're staying up late reminiscing on some old stories having some laughs having some hey do you fucking remember this and then you kind of get sparked up like you forgot about the story and then it just takes you back to it uh so yeah that'll be my shout out also i know we've had
Starting point is 01:05:47 it before but aces like it's getting fucking hot it's hot part of me like i i hate the heat i hate how hot it gets and so i'm a big fan of getting inside and getting in the AC yeah inside cat man yeah you know your boy specifically movie theater AC yeah going to the movie in the summer that's a shout out you almost have the dress to go to the
Starting point is 01:06:07 to the movie theater yeah you're a little hoodie on yeah like maybe i wear some sweatpants get a little cozy in there because you know it's gonna be cold but yeah maybe just bring it with you just in case yeah maybe you're not wearing a just in case hoodie shout out to just in case yeah just in case yeah i like that i like that a lot that was awesome do we have oh we got tear talk yeah our yeah we've been we've been excited about this one our tier talk today ladies and gentlemen is going to be fruits cue i know you're a huge listener of the pop but i'm gonna tell you anyway you're gonna start at three paint us a picture of why you like that fruit and slowly go up tier one.
Starting point is 01:06:38 We're going to take a couple minutes, though, and dive in. Make sure you just don't miss a couple. Start us off, Will. No. You went last on the shoutout. Go ahead, Q. I'll go. I'm going to go tier three,
Starting point is 01:06:58 coconut. Interesting. I've been on a real coconut water. Free shout, I know, free shadow, whatever. Harmless harvest, coconut water. We have that at the facility, been dominating those.
Starting point is 01:07:15 Love that, and then I just love coconut in general. I think it's great to have in a smoothie, great to have as a dessert. It's got a lot of different functions. So that's Tier 3. Do I go to Tier 2 now? Yes. Tier 2.
Starting point is 01:07:36 I'm going to go. This is tough. This is tough. But I think I'm going to go, this might sound stupid, but it's not stupid to me. Limes. Oh, hell no. That boy, making a pinna colada out here. What you do?
Starting point is 01:07:55 Yeah, dude. I mean, a lot of versatility again. You could put it in your water for flavor. You could put it, squeeze it on top of food for tacos, chimmy cherry sauce. A lot of functions there. I think limes have other functions for like gardening and keeping insects away, but whatever. And then number one, I'm just going straight off of taste. My favorite fruit to eat is pineapple.
Starting point is 01:08:30 So sweet. You're tropical as hell with that. Oh, that's my word. Yeah. Oh, the first tropical. I like the pineapple. My word is interesting. We have to give words.
Starting point is 01:08:43 This is one word to describe how you feel about yours, about your dear talk. Boys? Oh, we're going. One word you get for how you feel about people. Creative. Beachy. Interesting. You use the same as well.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Yeah. Bottom heavy. Is bottom heavy one word? Hifonated. Hyphenated. That was interesting. I like what was throwing me off about it too. is you're picking some fruits that have variety.
Starting point is 01:09:22 They have versatility. Yeah. And that kind of threw me because coconut, I do love some coconut. Like in the slushies, bro. Tiger Blood. Oh, yeah. There's some coconut going in the tiger blood slushy.
Starting point is 01:09:33 Mm. Yeah. In the bays, those drinks, the B-A-I, coconut's my favorite drink. Coconut is the best one. Like, it's my favorite. It might be my favorite drink right now. So that's where you kind of threw me.
Starting point is 01:09:47 Fuck. That's complimentary fruit. Yeah, that's complimentary fruit, bro. You got to think like coconut's kind of like the celery of the fruit. It helps out the most in every situation. But you're not going to just grab a piece of coconut and eat it. No. Salary sucks, bro.
Starting point is 01:10:03 Celeries sucks, right? It also has its function, you know? That's all we need to hear. That's exactly what I need to hear. For texture and food, it gives a nice crunch. I mean, come on, man. What about after having hot wings and you see the celery on the side? You did that thing in ranch?
Starting point is 01:10:21 Yeah, I never fucking do that. I'm all wings brother Crush all the wings Man I'm really Don't even bring that salary Don't even Don't even No salary, no carrots
Starting point is 01:10:39 I'm trying to I'm having a hard time I'm having a hard time with this one boys Man Man I don't think Peaches don't make my list, bro. Them juicy peaches, man. I don't think they make my list.
Starting point is 01:10:59 My honorable mention is going to go to these cute little bastards. They're called Clementines. Yeah, they're good. Them little mini oranges. Yeah. Peel it off, and they have a nice sweetness. They have a nice burst. Tang.
Starting point is 01:11:10 In your mouth when you bite down on them. So my honorable mention is going to go to the Clementine, the cute little bastards. My tier three. And you changed the game on me with this one because you did coconut. Because peaches was going to be my tier three. but my tier three is actually going to be banana now because I think the versatility with banana like peanut butter banana
Starting point is 01:11:29 like in smoothies chocolate banana eating bananas I'm gonna go tier three banana my tier two is going to be your top dog pineapple the juiciness and sweetness of a pineapple man you just
Starting point is 01:11:44 it's tough to beat and it's only beaten by one dominating fruit in my opinion like the alpha fruit which is the watermelon. Talk about versatility there with flavors and the sourpatch kids and you get the watermelon sour patch ones.
Starting point is 01:12:05 Yeah. The Jolly Rancher. Watermelon anything just dominates the game. And I love, I love just eating when somebody slices up a watermelon or it comes, what is it?
Starting point is 01:12:18 Pre-chopped, just cold watermelon on a hot summer day. Holy fuck. And that's going to round out my tear talk thoughtful thoughtful thank you clementines
Starting point is 01:12:34 juicy solid incredible deceived I tell jp. the peach was I'm like damn argument for best fruit
Starting point is 01:13:07 but once I saw that list I'm just thinking man clementine how did clementine get the honorable mention over the peach you're right you're not wrong about that
Starting point is 01:13:15 I just thought clementines never really get their place they never really get their place they never really get their shout out. Their moment. And I do think they're a nice, they're a nice little fruit snack. It is a nice little fruit snack. Um, my own mention is going to go to. Peach. I think, especially this time of the year, the old peach truck is out there in Nashville, Tennessee, and you see it and you almost slam on your damn breaks when you go. Get yourself a box of those things. Go through about a
Starting point is 01:13:38 dozen of those in one day. I enjoy how juicy a peach is. The reason why I didn't make my list is how mess it is, but it's going to be very contradictory when I get up to my top, my top slot. The emoji, too, peach emoji. The emoji too. My tier three is watermelon. Everything Will said about watermelon is incredible. The versatility of watermelon,
Starting point is 01:14:00 you can't beat it, hot summer day, have it there in a bowl, everyone's chomping away at it. You put some of that season and salt on there. You put some tahin. You throw that on top of it. It just really is a refreshing, satisfying fruit. incredible. My tier two
Starting point is 01:14:16 is going to go to the always reliable pineapple. We've all been to a party. And in that party, they put out a fruit dish. What's the first thing to go in that fruit dish? When there's the melon, the cantaloupe, and the pineapple. It's always the pineapple. And you're low-key racing to get there because no one really wants to deal with that melon and cantalope very much.
Starting point is 01:14:37 People do that when we got a couple hours in the party. I got us from a snack on something. I might as well just grab this. But really, it's the pineapple that says, apart from everything else. It reminds me of sandy beaches and it was me a warm fuzzy feeling inside when I am taking down that pineapple. My number one is going to go to the Kiwi. I think number one, you take the time to intentionally shave off that hair of the Kiwi, get the thing all good and right, chop that thing up the way you want it. The only thing bad about is you're going to wish you want to have more. It is so damn delicious. Even the seeds, they have like, they have like,
Starting point is 01:15:14 just big enough to add texture to that gushy, delicious moisture of Kiwi. That's what's your talk. Insane. Fire. And I don't think you give a word for Will's. What was your word for my? I think it's great, but I'll
Starting point is 01:15:38 say fundamentally. Fundamentals. I see what can do it. Fruitful. Not a whole lot there. Yeesh. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:03 I expected that, my Mitch's palat. Tropical. Ish. The kiwi threw me, bro. I think Kiwis are so good, dude. Never once I'm thinking, like, oh, we ran out. Like, I can't run out of this kiwi.
Starting point is 01:16:16 I need more of it. To me, it's a pleasant surprise when you open up the fridge and you see Kiwi, and you're like, I got some time. I'm going to take care of this and enjoy this whole taste. you treat. It's the closest thing to candy in my opinion when it comes to the fruits. Do you know what the best season is for Kiwis? February. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:16:34 I didn't know either. I thought I was going to do something crazy with what you asked. I need to have one. It's been a lot. October through May. So I was not wrong. February. It's right.
Starting point is 01:16:45 In that middle of that little boy, huh? That's peak Kiwi season. Kiwis, man. You don't mess with them? I'm not really. I'm like get you on tomorrow before the game. Like, I'll eat them and they'll be, they'll be, I'll be, I'll be, oh, this is a solid little fruit, but never am I like, oh, I'm craving Kiwi.
Starting point is 01:17:01 That shit is so good. It's a little furry pubes on the, on the skin. Yeah. I'll tell you, JP, I feel like you and I, we'd eat together quite a bit. Yeah, we, we, I think our mouths are similar. True. Kiwi, peaches, celery. Yeah, I mean, that was it?
Starting point is 01:17:19 You guys do have some commonalities. Okay. What we think, boys? Yeah, we got anything else with Q? Any questions from the back? Because I have one more. Go ahead. Oh, wait, though.
Starting point is 01:17:34 Do you guys have any? Good. Now that you're a veteran, do you keep up with things like the top 100? No. Like, you were a couple years ago, I think you were top 30. Last year, you were nowhere on the list.
Starting point is 01:17:52 Is that something you were like watching? You almost just store in the back of your memory. Like, that kind of gives an extra chip on your shoulder. no um it's not like a part of my why like why i play the game like be on the top 100 list you yeah do you ever catch yourself thinking about those things and then obviously having to quickly remind yourself like oh don't get caught up in this bullshit no i don't yeah impressive i feel like i would think about that you don't think to yourself when you see the number they're like damn i wonder why they put this person over me
Starting point is 01:18:27 I didn't even, well, I knew I wasn't going to make it last year, so I didn't even watch. So I have no idea what that list even looks like. Just focusing on myself and like improving myself, you know. Self-improvement. Yeah. Well-polished, politically correct answer. You can tell you've been in the media rooms a little bit. The one year you got second team all-pro, were you jaded about not getting first?
Starting point is 01:18:51 No. Who got it over you? I think Petonio. Good ball player. Great. Yeah. Good dude, too. Great ball player.
