Bussin' With The Boys - George Kittle On Future Of 49ers, $76 MILLION Contract + Christian McCaffrey's Dominance | Bussin’
Episode Date: June 24, 2025Recorded: June 17, 2025 Will Compton and Taylor Lewan have San Francisco 49ers star and The King of Tight End University George Kittle on this episode of Bussin’ With The Boys! The guys kick thi...ngs off with a lively intro this week, with Will Compton stirring the pot and creating drama between Bussin' Producer Jack and Taylor Lewan. Taylor then defends his claim of being an elite athlete (which AI has confirmed is accurate), ending with a healthy debate over normalizing bad first pitches. The Boys jump into George Kittle's interview full steam. George talks candidly about his NFL career earnings, how he takes care of his body midseason, and responds to Taylor’s wild claims about Brock Purdy from two years ago. He also discusses his desire to continue playing at a high level, his love for video games, and all things Niners, including how Brock Purdy and Christian McCaffrey are ready for a comeback season. The guys laugh about George’s new touchdown celebration ideas, debate whether Kyle Juszczyk is Hall of Fame-worthy, and dish on Deebo Samuel possibly being overweight. They even touch on a surreal moment of hanging with Justin Trudeau while his countrymen chirped him at the 4 Nations Hockey Tournament. Things wind down with more Tight End U talk, the future of the event, and George’s excitement to hang with the boys this week. Support the boys — throw us a like and a subscription.

I'm talking about Tad NU.
Greg Olson. Greg Olson.
It's a good never round of applause.
Seems like every single here,
Tide NU just keeps doing this and this and this and this.
It's bigger and bigger. We got
a bunch of episodes today or
yeah, episodes. And then tomorrow
we're going to Titan U.
Going to be a part of all the festivities, everything,

do that thing, maybe jumping in a couple of things ourselves.
Then a live show, live show tomorrow night.

the concert that Titan U is throwing,
the boys will be dabbling and some hosting.
Hosting.
I'm seeing as they say.
Giving out some award, just having some good old clean fun.
Good vibes.
Great vibes.
That is what it is all about.
Then, after that chunk of the week,
yours truly we're headed off to Las Vegas Nevada we're going back to war tunnel of chaos
so Jack McPherson is out of town he is in Greece that's why our boy Maddie over here with
his middle part Sean from Boy Meets World is sitting there and not Jack McPherson is because he is
in Greece celebrating one of his friends going in holy matrimony I am taking Jared Beeman with
me demon to international fight week and I cannot wait to spend 72 hours with this kid alone
Can I make a prediction?
Can I make a prediction just to possibly cause some internal chaos?
I'd rather you didn't, but?
Yes, absolutely.
Let's keep some vibes up, right?
The vibes are up.
I think the vibes are so high that my prediction, because I was feeling out,
I was feeling out demon.
I'm like, hey, buddy, are you ready for, you ready for Vegas this weekend?
And he's so stoked.
He's fired up.
You're going to have the time of your life.
He says he's been watching videos.
of inside the Red Rock.
He's obviously seeing all the UFC stuff
like when we are ringside.
But he's going to have an incredible weekend.
My prediction is that
Demon's going to have so much fun.
He's going to be on it so much.
And you're going to enjoy demons so much
that I think he unseats Jack.
Oh, wow.
Oh, wow.
Oh, yeah.
Sorry, I know.
We're all tight.
Hold on.
Don't say sorry for nothing.
As I'm going to bed last night,
I thought this demon cat might crush it so much
that that thought crossed my mind already.
It thought crossed my mind already.
Like I was thinking to myself,
I was thinking of myself, he ain't.
Jack, your old dog.
He's my road dog.
I love Jack.
And Jack and Taylor in Vegas,
like that is one of the best vibes.
Jack and Taylor do Vegas.
Jack and Tatea do Vegas.
Yeah, that's my guy.
But I was thinking, because I've seen
some of the stuff that Jared's done
that has not been even talked about
that he's doing for Bustin with the boys
its own little passion project.
And I'm thinking if he puts an ounce of effort
of that type of effort into this vlog.
And it's not even if, it's when.
I know, because he's a dude,
he's a dog looking for a bone.
Yeah.
And you just give him that bone, pat him on the ass a couple of times.
He'll lay on his back and he'll love you for the rest of your life.
He's a career man.
Career man.
He's a career man.
He's a grinder.
He takes advantage of opportunities and he creates his own opportunity.
I did tell him when we were going to do this episode,
this intro right now.
I was like, hey, just make sure you, you know, like, there's going to be a lot of stuff happening, like, in real time.
So you're going to have to also pictures, videos, post.
Like, you're going to have to do a lot of those things like Jack would do during the thing.
And you could tell that put a little, he didn't think about that part yet.
Yeah.
He's awesome.
I'll send to Matt.
I'll probably send him to Matt and he'll post it.
Right, right.
He'll probably just shoot it around.
Yeah.
And they try to talk to me and I was like, I'd love to, but I'm about to go do the episode of us once.
Yeah.
And so he's probably just over there in a little blender right now.
He's over there to handle it.
But yeah, it crossed my mind.
That's my prediction.
What about the horse you rode in on?
Old Jackie Moon.
What are the thoughts there?
Would it be a J-Rod would then join y'all's duo?
Demon would join the duo?
See, the thing about that, there's overhead, right?
There's a lot of things that come into when you're doing a business.
That's true.
And then there's extra flights.
I mean, hotels don't cost anything.
There's extra rooms to bug.
Well, not invade.
That's free.
Oh.
So really it's just the flight.
So maybe.
So maybe.
But then you're always.
Also leaving out Sweet JP, who is our vlog guy.
Yes.
He's honestly the biggest UFC fan.
The biggest UFC fan.
It is International Fight Week.
And as a fight fan, you love International Fight Week.
And when you brought me into the room to ask me about, hey, do you want to come on this trip?
I'm thinking it's Fight Week.
That will be awesome.
I haven't been to Vegas in a while.
And in the corner, Jared is standing there.
And I know in the same conversation we're having, we know Jared will crush it.
We know he'll love the experience.
And I'm looking at Taylor, but the whole time I just cannot stop seeing Jared in my peripheral.
I'm like, I think I need to let Jared go to this one for the experience.
My thought of bringing you in the room what that was you just got back from a wedding a long time.
Like you're getting, it's like there's nothing harder than having an incredible vacation and then going back to work.
Right.
And it's like we kind of got to figure this whole thing out.
I know you're not a huge fan of shooting the gambling stuff.
Right.
It's really like, it's not for everybody.
Yeah.
Jack loves it.
It's just you're just to love it.
The actual act gets boring for me.
Yeah.
When you're sitting there, I'm sure the viewer loves it.
Right.
But if you have no skin the game and you have a camera and you're like, all right, well, hopefully he wins so we can go to bed.
Like that's kind of, that can't be fun.
Right.
So like, damn, he's down and you're like, oh, shit, he's down.
But you're more so thinking like, fuck.
I ain't going to sleep.
Yeah.
I told Jared too, we're going to be long nights.
But that was kind of the reason why I was like, hey, JP, if you want to, if you want to bow out of this, you're more than welcome to.
Because I knew if it was just a, hey, we're popping Saturday to leave Sunday.
I'm in there.
You're in that thing.
You're in that thing.
If we could go around back of the bus, Matt, you're included.
What would be the odds you place on Jack remaining the road dog?
Oh, no.
Oh, don't do that.
Oh, no.
No do that.
He's out for K.
He's out for K.
He's lacking a little bit of sleep right now.
He's like, let me just see this world burn a little bit.
I thought Taylor would probably just fight and stand on the table a little bit more for Jack.
And I'm sure he does.
He's just talking about the optimism of that is Jared Demon.
Ultimate Optimist.
But just to, you know, create a little bit more chaos.
I'll say this.
I think Jack is more built for the long nights over a period of time than Jared.
Jared will crush it, but I don't know if Jared can go 3 a.m. 4 a.m. one night,
3 a.m. 4 a.m. the next night.
So I'm still, I think I'm going to lean Jack in my, he's the favorite in my boat.
So you got Jack, what?
I think Jack's still a heavy favorite.
Yeah, probably more like a minus, like, 150.
Oh, okay.
Okay. Okay. All right.
Close little head to head.
Right.
Yeah, Jack's the boss.
He's just, I mean, he's a killer, though. He seems like an all-night guy.
Love Jared. He hired me, right? Love Jared. But I'm going to go Jack minus 250.
Pretty easy.
Threw around that hired word pretty fast, didn't he?
Yeah. Yeah.
Well, he did get hired as the, as the intern.
Oh, well, he had to go through a hiring process.
True. Yeah. Yeah, not fully hired. 50% you'd say for the internship.
You got hired as a summer intern.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
100%.
100%.
You got that.
I think Demon's going to love this trip, so much so that maybe by the end of it,
when you guys land back in Nashville on Sunday, he's going to be like, hey, Taylor, like,
we had a good time, right?
Like, I would love to go again if you want me to.
Like, I would like, and I know Jack, sometimes he's tired and stuff on coming back from
those Vegas trips, but like, I think he might, he might, Jack might even be willing to
past the torch for a couple weekends,
but then you know he's going to get that itch,
like I need to get back there.
See, that last thing you said, I don't think.
I think there's a possibility
that Jack loves Vegas just as much as I do.
Yeah.
I think he's about it.
And Jack is one of those pack and play kind of people
where you can just,
you leave him alone for 15 minutes.
He'll catch up on sleep.
He has the ability to take these micro-naps,
plane, sitting in the back of a car for a five-minute drive.
Like, he has that ability to recharge in an instant.
I don't know if Jared has that capability.
But if we're going to have these late nights, hopefully we don't.
But most likely we have these late nights, there's two things that are going to happen.
Jared's going to come back, super excited like you said, or he's going to be limping,
limping on his way back to Nashville.
You know demons, the energy drink king.
True, but them things can only help you for so long.
Demon strikes me as the type is he won't let long nights affect him the next day if he's working.
Correct.
Yeah.
He's a career man.
Yeah, yeah.
He's a career man.
While we're on the UFC talk,
I know people are probably loving the fact
that there's an eternal struggle going on.
Let's talk about this fight.
You got to feed the tier ones, man.
Yeah, yeah.
They know what's going on.
Because this Teporei-A-Olivera fight
is going to be juicy.
Yeah.
Olivera, most submissions in UFC history.
Well, obviously his last fight was against our boy,
Signor Chandler,
and he put on that, he did really well until that last round.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
DePoree, though, this guy's talking about.
He wants three-bos.
He wants three belts.
He wants to be looked at as the goat.
Now John Jones is now retired.
He's the goat of all goats in the UFC world.
But he's looking, he's his little vacancy there.
He said, let me make this legacy so I can get it going.
Where are we sitting?
Because I got myself a text.
Actually, I got myself a text from our guy, Zade, on Saturday at like 2 p.m.
He said, put it in now, massive bet.
To pourier, knockout.
You know I like me a little risk.
You like that risk a little bit more if there was about eight more legs.
I did I did I did win the part the part my last parley you did yeah three six you kind of on fire right now huh
huh uh you can't call it a streak until you get what at least three two's a streak I'll give two
a street people the people won't consider it a streak until it goes three but we're chasing you're chasing
back to back to back to back parley wins this week okay all right jp where you sitting uh man it's so
i'm sitting with olivera I'm sitting I'm thinking this is the year of the of the legends because
we got so many people retiring this year.
I think Dustin Porre will win his last fight.
I think if Wonderboy, if this is his last fight, he'll win it in Nashville.
And I think it all starts with Olivera this weekend.
I think he puts the young guy down.
Let him know, like, hey, 145 is your place.
But Toporia is dangerous.
Not like I'll be surprised if he won.
But I'm going to go Olivera just because he's a day one.
He's been in it for a while.
Yeah.
Does he put the gloves down or does he defend it once he wins it?
Oh, if he wins, he's staying.
Well, if he loses, you say he puts the gloves down then.
No, he'll probably still go,
just because his fighting style is a lot less violent than the others.
Yeah.
He's all about that ground and pound.
Yeah.
All right.
Willie?
What do you say?
Listen, I love the message from Zade.
I'll have to check in with our boy, our teammate, Clay Matthews.
I know he's big in the UFC.
So I'll have to get some context for some of these fights before I put the parlay together.
But I will be cooking.
You should get Clay there if you have extra ticket.
I have an extra ticket
Taylor Luan
Clay Matthews
Jared Demon
Tanner Tignini
I mean
that front row
will never be the same
Never
Never be the same again
Oh
God damn
A good demon on the cam
Holy
Oliveira right now
Straight up is plus 340
on Fandall Sportsbook
Plus 340
Yeah
Depore is minus 500
But it's the fight game
It's the fight game
It's a fight game.
It's a fight game.
It's a chance.
Punches chance.
Jerm?
Mitch, you guys have predictions on this thing?
No.
No.
Don't give a shit.
Okay.
I like Olivera.
You like Oliveira?
Yeah.
All right.
I do.
All right.
Plus 340 for sure.
Loves it.
Also, the big fight going on, uh, Jake Paul, who there's rumors he might be coming on
the bus someday.
Fighting Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
Our thoughts on that.
No clue.
Okay.
For Jake Paul.
I love the chaos.
Love the chaos.
There is not a family that does a better job of stirring the pot and having dollars come out.
I don't think there's a better duo in this world at this moment that can stir the pot that way they do and just have like an ATM machine rip out for the Paul brothers.
I did see that Jake Paul is no longer doing his podcast.
Impulsive.
Yeah.
No, no, no, Jake Paul.
That's Logan Paul.
Logan Paul's impulsive.
Got you.
Jake Paul is BS with Jake Paul.
And he's not doing it anymore.
Yeah, he's stepping down from the podcast game.
What's going on?
Just I'll bust with the boys rise up the race.
He's like, I just can't compete.
Yeah, he's just got too much going on.
Says he's not like, you know, he's just not into the whole interviewing style of everything.
And with everything he's got going on business-wise and probably chasing a championship in boxing.
Chasing a championship in.
Priority-wise, the podcast game is falling on his list.
It's falling down a little bit.
God, it'll be interesting to see.
Boys live in Puerto Rico.
Yeah, I think so.
I think you're-
I was sure they got a place there.
Yeah, I was looking up, once I found that out,
they were in Puerto Rico, I was looking up some taxes.
I think you pay 4% total in taxes when you were living in Puerto Rico.
Yeah.
Then I started looking on Zillow.
Some nice houses out there in Puerto Rico.
Some nice houses for sale in Puerto Rico, boys.
What's the, what's the market looking like?
It's hot right now.
It's hot.
It's a little up there.
Price for square footage sits around anywhere between $500 and $1,000 a square foot.
It's nice.
We got here.
We're going, you're going, you're going to,
income tax.
4% income tax.
Chat GPT.
Shout out chat GPT on that.
So something to think about boys,
if we're looking to save a couple of shekels,
maybe cruise on over to Puerto Rico sometime.
Yeah, there.
Right?
Spend over six months there.
Yeah.
180 whatever days.
But yeah, dude,
it's going to be an insane weekend.
It'll be awesome.
We interrupt this episode because we are brought to you
by neutral vodka seltzer.
Have you tried neutral?
If not, you are missing out.
Neutral is so much better than any other
seltzer that I've tried. It's made with real
vodka, real juice. That's what makes it
delicious. Neutral comes in a variety
of flavors like watermelon.
Orange as a personal favorite of mine.
They also have the hitter new flavors,
lime and strawberry. Neutral
is the perfect drink to bring when hang
with friends because it is such a
crowd pleaser. Whether you're at a bar watching the game
in the backyard with friends at a tailgate, it doesn't
matter. Neutral is there
for you. Neutral. Keep it
tasty. Back to this episode.
Big weekend as well. We'll
Compton, he went to New York.
Mitchie had a birthday and also my beautiful bride of nine years,
Talen Gallagher, she had a birthday as well.
How was the birthday, Mitch?
What we do?
We got a boat Saturday morning.
Shout out Rowdies, wild rides.
Oh, yeah, buddy.
You got a discount for that shout out, didn't you?
No, I didn't.
We should.
We honestly should.
I mean, we got the perfect squad for it, but no, it was a good time.
We had an early boat, took off at like 945, get out there, beat the heat.
but yeah we had a good squad come down one of my buddies from new Orleans came up you guys met in parallelu
and then I made it up with Coop coop came on the boat with the boys had to be huge for you too
he had a great time he mixed in well with with the with the squad and it was a lot of fun got
back chilled for a little bit went to L.A. Jackson then watched the college world series of
neighbors I was home by like 945 10 woke up you
yesterday feeling great.
Wow.
Yeah.
Mature of you.
Yeah.
And I was, I was, I was bombed.
I didn't make it out a little bit longer.
But, uh, I was a lot happier that I woke up Sunday feeling good.
Yeah, you went about it the right way.
Yes, for sure.
No more the day drinking route.
It's the best part about day drinking.
For sure.
Still hit a spot at night.
LA Jackson's a great rooftop bar.
A vibe.
The day drinking is, I think, just undefeated.
Yeah.
People need to stop.
going out at nighttime.
It needs to be a nine to nine type of situation.
Yeah.
You almost need those.
You almost need that young life in the night life until you learn.
And as Mitch is maturing and growing,
then you just start to make the transition and realize that,
hey, this night game is behind me.
I can get this in while the sun's up.
Yeah.
Give myself a full night's sleep.
Still get some good sleep.
No doubt about it.
How is New York?
Up and down.
Up and down.
I'm not a big New York guy.
I think my personal opinion is I think New York is overrated
I think there's a lot of great food I think you can do anything you want
we had an awesome night one night where we had a little we had a little
double date night where we got some some good dinner with some great views
and then we went to like a speak easy magic show and you know your boy loves magic
love how was the magic it was great good it was great mostly card tricks but I will say
like I was walking away trying to figure out like how they did that
You know what I mean?
There's some guy just creating pigeons out of nowhere.
Dubs.
Live ones.
Yes, dude.
Yes.
He'd make like a paper airplane.
And then he'd fucking do something.
This dude's like pulling eight different doves out of his suit.
I have no fucking clue.
Gotta be.
But he's getting like a restaurant, right?
Food and doves flying around.
Yeah.
It was insane, bro.
It was insane.
And then the car tricks were all time.
The guys, each different magician, they have about 10 minutes.
And then somebody knew comes to your table.
But each magician did a great job with their charisma.
at working the table, keeping your eyes, you know, for their slide of hand movement.
Movement, it was, it was a great little, it's a great little magic show.
It was in like, uh, in the back of this, uh, dry cleaning business to where it was,
you know, it's closed.
You're like, you're, uh, you're like, bullpen is this bar next door.
Guy brings you over.
He goes, like, hey, go next door.
It's closed, but just let him know that George sent you.
And so you walk over, you walk in.
It's just closed a little dry cleaner spot, close everywhere.
And you just let him know, like, hey, George sent us.
So he lets us behind the desk, behind the counter.
or we walked through all these clothes.
There's just a little secret door in the back.
You open the door and it's this just wide open space, event space,
was like a little stage and everything else.
They did a good job.
It was fun.
It was fun.
But New York, I mean, I gave you a breakdown.
You want me to read your, I have your breakdown pulled up.
Would you like me to read it?
You can read it.
Okay.
This is 4.13 p.m. yesterday.
I texted Will.
How was NYC?
Dirty.
Smelly.
Two separate text.
Me.
Two cry, laughy.
face emojis and I said lost a step and then he said tasty fun I go oh two
H's but uh rounded it out with lots of gays and I respond oh one H what a ride you just
took me on that's it that's that's that's a will's breakdown of New York shout out
pride month too dude yeah every corner you turn there's these posters that says like
weed made me gay
Every boaster.
And it's just trash.
Can you do that?
Can we do that?
Yeah.
That's right.
Why not?
Only one way to find out.
You know what I'm saying?
There's a reason I stopped smoking.
And once I saw that, what?
Weed.
Hello?
Is it the weed?
That's the weed.
I'll go get it.
Hey.
What the hell's going on?
We're sending someone over there.
Some lady, so those are you, I'm whispering right now because there's a lady that just came
in our shop.
What's going on?
She laughed.
I don't know.
who walks in oh yes so it seems like it's all good who walks into a dark room i don't know she's
on excuse me screaming reminds me to be new yorker right
but when you said when you sent me those texts i was dying you're walking around and
there there is you're just like trash everywhere and i just think in my mind i don't know how people
live here i can see how people visit there because you can get into whatever you want to get
into great food great coffee shops great bagels all the stuff that you enjoy in new york but
living there just I don't understand that mindset I think it's the a lot of things you just said is the
reason right convenience like you live on your block and you have everything you want you probably have
every different kind of food you have your coffee shop you go to everything's walking distance it's an
active lifestyle yeah but it's so fucking expensive no doubt bro the hotel we were saying in like a solid
brand of a hotel the hoxton but every the room that we were in was like this little 400 square foot
room and it was essentially like enough room for the bed in the bathroom and i'm sure it was really
expensive yeah i don't even know i don't even know we also shout out will's bags he doesn't even
know how much the room costs let's give him a round of applause shut out will not looking at the receipts
anymore i made the comment i'm like why didn't we get two of these oh did you because they're so small
bro it's like anytime we're having downtime with the fame we're all four on the bed yeah can't really
get nap times in no you know roos three scotty's seven months you're trying to like stay on routines
and stuff, but it kind of goes out the window a little bit when you're all crammed inside of a room.
Which is a white for a day.
No closet space.
We have all these bags.
You know when you're traveling with the kids, like each kid has their own little bag.
Because again, seven months, Scotty, she needs a lot more than, you know, Rue has such a different bag than she does.
You got to bring all the stuff.
You got our massive bag.
I'm packed light, live heavy.
So I just got my duffel bag coming from Chicago going to two and O with a dozen trivia.
Shout out the booze ponies.
And the big suitcase, it's just like laid out in the bathroom.
You know what I mean?
there's just not a lot of there's not a lot of wiggle room yeah kind of remind you of like being
in europe where everything's just a lot smaller and more crammed and there's just there's just there's just
so many fucking people dude it's one thing i don't do and it's people a lot of people in one
a lot of people just being around you at one time it was too much it's like we'll come to get out of
yeah need my space i'll tell you what i wish i the one of the things i wish most in life is that
i've known i knew you longer like not just in 2018 i wish i knew you in 2010 right i wish we've had like
this this long like teenage amount of years together.
But if we were roommates in college, we wouldn't have made it.
We wouldn't have been.
You don't think so?
No.
I think it's one of those things where you go to college, you get paired up with somebody
you don't really know, but it's another football player.
We get paired together because like, all right, they're both white guys.
Yeah, but if that would happen, we would have had, what, about six months in the summer dorms?
Yeah.
In that moment, I would have learned about you and I would have known like, okay, I got to make a pivot.
Or.
Because I don't think I had the same roommates after every.
We'll have to make a change every, every semester.
Yeah, essentially.
I made a change each year.
Right.
And just thinking this next relationship will be better than the last.
Yeah, Timo was the longest standing one.
Shut up, my boy, Timo.
Shout out, I heard a lot of good stories about you, Timo.
We had a little townhouse together.
And Zoe Whaley, I enjoyed living with Zoe Whaley.
Okay.
So there are some, in the fold, there is a couple of that you like, a couple of gems.
Yeah.
Okay.
I even did a year with my brother with Cody.
That had to be different.
Then after that year, it's like, we got to figure something else out.
Right.
How does that conversation take place between you and Cody?
He's probably fired up about the next year.
He's ready to resign the lease.
You let it go drag on a little longer.
I think we both know what time it was.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
Are you sure?
You sure he knew what time it was?
You sure he knew what time it was?
I think so.
Maybe not.
Probably not.
Probably not.
Knowing you.
Yeah.
Right?
You just get to a point.
You know, hey, by the way, I'm going to move somewhere else.
All right.
That's all good.
Yeah.
But yeah, big weekends.
Taylor had a birthday.
Shout out Taylor.
Shout out, Taylan.
32 years old.
looks 25 looks 25 big uh it was big weekend for her Saturday which was her birthday June 21st she decided to do the launch party which is summer solstice her a launch party for her business nature ad nurture so we go to this little farm area which is actually Delaney rider Ernest and his wife they just bought this property not in Fairview okay beautiful I think it's like 27 acres they have like a couple of barns except their own little farmer's market nature at nurtures write the vocal point and they have all of
these local people that are essentially displaying what nature I nurture is all about. It's awesome.
It is so fucking hot the entire time. And I'm dying. I dress up kind of nice. I have a pair of slacks
on a light, a light Hawaiian shirt and it's buttoned. But the button just keep going down and down.
I'm starting to leak and leak and leak. Finally, I find out there's a room with some AC. So I get to
break away every once in a while. My kids, I give them $20. And they're just having a great time because
it's a small little area. So they're like feeling this level of independence.
That's amazing.
They're going up.
They're grabbing themselves a little moktail.
They go over here.
They get themselves a hat.
Five minutes later, they're back for another $20.
All right.
Those kids house me for about $200 the entire night, which was tough.
But then they have this little, this dinner.
And you go down this little drive area on these Kawasaki's, which we got to get a plug for that.
These little Kawasaki side-by-side things, unbelievable.
Go down there.
There's like five or six big tables, a beautiful, like, you know, little flowers and green.
greenery stuff.
Plates are set out, Jason Russell, best chef in Nashville, Tennessee, my chef.
He was cooking the whole thing up.
There is a geyser of some sort, like a natural water spring that is slowly spewing over into a
creek.
It's absolutely beautiful.
The sun is setting.
The water's cooler than the air, so there's a little steam coming off.
I sit there back.
I take a big step back.
Imagine there's nobody there and just wishing I would see a figure and hearing, because it was
the perfect scene for a Friday of 13th.
Jason Voorhees.
The food was immaculate.
The girls gave speeches.
Their stage presence was incredible.
They did a great job.
So if you're out there and you're also subscribed with this podcast,
go ahead and give Nature AdNurture a follow as well.
All right.
They're just trying to make the world a better place.
How can people support?
Go to Nature and Nurture and follow.
But I'm saying, like, are there ways?
So they got a little website that you can go and anything you buy.
I think it goes into the local community,
all the people that make stuff.
I think there's like a seed company.
that they do, which is really cool because there's one guy who started it,
but they have a bunch of people that have like special needs.
And they have like their job is like put the seeds in the packages.
And so they'll put it on their website.
That website will, people will buy it.
And then they'll obviously local companies will make money.
It's all about figuring out a way to slow down, which we do not.
Plus what the boys does not slow down.
We're actually just speeding up in a big way.
But it's taking pause, just kind of zooming out a little bit and realizing all this hustle
and bustle stuff.
and maybe not for all of us.
It's like the story of the fisherman.
Have you heard the story of the fisherman?
Possibly.
All right.
You want to sit there?
Enlighten me.
Okay.
So there's this guy at an island.
And he fishes every single day.
He catches fish, goes and sells him at a market,
goes home, feeds his family with the same fish.
And this guy crushed, he's great at fishing.
Some guy comes at approaches a businessman in a suit.
He says, hey, man, if you want, you can add more boats to this
and then become like a massive thing.
And like, you could have a huge company.
And he's like, then what?
He's like, then you make way more money.
He's like, then what I do?
And he's like, then you can have a bigger house.
And he's like, then what?
And he keeps going, then what, then what?
And then he eventually gets to him.
Then you can retire and live on a small island and just hang out and fish for yourself.
Essentially being like, if you work really hard, you can do the same thing you're doing right now.
And this guy just chooses, you know what, ma'am?
I enjoy the life I have.
Why make it harder than it has to be?
This is exactly where I need to be.
So it's not taking that next step.
It's the ability to say no.
The story of the Mexican fisherman.
The story of the Mexican, don't know why it has to be Mexican.
But, yeah.
the story of Mexican fishermen.
Because that's the historically accurate.
That's the story.
That's what it's called.
He's putting us on game.
Come on.
But you were aware.
You know the story?
Oh, yeah, I know the story.
Yeah.
First time I read that story, I was at Jimmy Johns.
And it was one of those signs.
Yeah.
And I was like, this shit.
Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers.
And guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news, nice?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called,
Hey, Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to our first people to do podcasts.
Pretty.
Yeah, pretty.
wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name
Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
We were thinking I'm originally calling it
one of the early names of our band
before Jonas Brothers.
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast
where people could call in and say, hey Jonas.
and then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas,
and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.
Hey, I'm Jordan Arano.
You might know me as that loud guy who yells out,
help on the internet.
Help! Somebody! Please!
But there's so much more to me than that.
I'm an actor. I'm a comedian.
And recently, I've become quite the...
the helper myself.
And on my new podcast,
hope from a hypocrite,
I'll be changing lives,
helping people in need
with my sage advice
and thoughtful solutions.
Sike, I'm a comedian.
I'm not qualified to give good advice.
Join me and my comedian friends
as we riff rant
and recommend some of
the most legally dubious advice
known to man.
If I'm calling you,
even if you're on your phone,
let it ring twice.
One ring is too scary.
Oh, cream of chicken suit.
Cream and chicken suit.
This is Help from a Hypocrat,
the worst advice from the dumbest people you know.
Listen to Help from Hypocrat as part of the Mike Pulura Podcast Network
available on the IHart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
This is fucking.
This is legit.
Signed to sign next to it, dance like nobody's watching.
Yeah.
Dance in the rain.
But it was really cool.
Dailen, I mean, to do that on her birthday.
Good for her.
We got to stop forcing pants in the,
the summer long pants.
Dude, I was wearing these like Wrangler like light little things that were kind of like
a little higher look at some loafers on there that could breathe so I don't have to wear socks
with them and I was like, this should be good.
Right.
And I walked outside dude and I was just dying.
But I wanted to dress up because I knew she was dressed up.
I got the kids dressed up and dresses.
Right.
You got three other months to dress up though like summer.
You should just be able to wear shorts to wherever you're going.
Dinner, a bar party, whatever it is.
Let me wear shorts.
Yeah.
95 degrees.
Yeah.
Make sure it's great again.
Make sure it's great again.
No doubt.
Speaking of making things great, I like to go just rewind back to your story.
You're at the magic.
I thought you were going to go to Iran.
That's what I thought.
Oh, really?
Do you just want to break that down?
No, it's more of like, you know, I'm just like, I'm joshing around.
Oh, you're just having a good time?
Yeah.
Having fun with it.
I get it.
I tell you what, sitting on the tarmac for two and a half hours.
You learned a lot.
Yeah, you're sitting there.
It's like I would have rather been on the B2 stealth bomber dropping that.
30, that 30,000 pounder than sitting on a tarmac with two little kids.
I'm talking, we were in one of those situations where we were supposed to take off
at 12.
We board the plane Southwest.
Shoutout Southwest.
No free shots.
However, Southwest was a little pain in my ass.
Uh-oh.
Because we're sitting on the tarmac for over two hours, bro, and we're not really getting any
answers.
And it's me, Char.
We got Scotty and Rue and stuff.
And you know how it gets, bro.
Like, you know, I was just going to say, I know exactly how it gets.
Yeah.
Like, you're like, you're fucking in hell, dude.
they were like I feel like as good as they could be in that kind of situation they weren't like it
was never like really downhill it was more just we're tired from the weekend we're so excited to get
back to Nashville and get in some space get in a house with some space yeah um switch your arms that
fucking sucked dude two hours yeah yeah yeah now will you because we're one of years away from the gate
yeah we were sitting on that we were like sitting on the runway oh that sucks because at that point
if you're gonna do two hours you might as well de-plane yeah and sit there and wait a little bit
get off.
They kind of gave us like an update, but not a real update.
They're not giving you like an estimate of when it's all going to happen.
Right.
It's on its way.
We thought maintenance was already there.
What the fuck's going on.
Yeah.
I'm texting the boys because we wanted to.
It was like take off at 2, or take off at 12 landed 2.
We were looking at shooting for the dads at like 4 p.m.
when I landed on Sunday yesterday and we, since we didn't get back, we had to push it.
We came in and shot for the dads at like 9.30 at night.
Oh, we're here until about midnight.
Just brutal.
Yeah.
All because of lack of transparency.
you buy the airline.
Yeah.
Right.
Just speak up.
Which I hate because I love Southwest.
We got a lot of protests going on in the world right now.
We might need a star one with the airlines.
Yeah.
What's your stance?
Just tell us the truth when we're being delayed.
Yeah.
Buddy, I was, when I got done in Chicago?
I flew out, when was it Thursday morning?
I was supposed to be on the 8 a.m. flight and get land in New York or
laying in LaGuardia like around 11, 11.30.
I show up at the gate.
All of a sudden, my ticket now says 11 a.m.
They put me on a different flight because United overbooked.
Didn't even ask.
Didn't even ask.
I go out there, oh, I don't see it on the computer like you're on the 11 a.m.
and I'm like, I pull up where I bought the 8 a.m. flight and they're like, oh, we don't
have, we're overbooked.
I was like, well, if there's a seat and they're like, we got a long standby list.
So you had to wait to 11.
Yeah, they'd wait to 11.
I'm in the airport.
The flight was at 8 a.m. I'm in the airport of like 6.45 is when I got there.
Yeah.
So I just, I'm kicking in.
I'm eating mobland.
I am done with mobling.
I got done with Mob Lane in like three days.
Mob lane is fucking awesome.
That was a text I received this weekend was like,
you need to watch Mobland.
Yes.
It's like that.
Yes, bro.
We were at UFC 316 and Dana was telling us about Mobland
and saying, telling us that we have to watch.
We have to watch a guy Richie, awesome writer, director and producer.
And bro, buddy Tom Hardy crushes it.
It is a fucking awesome gangster style show.
Got to see.
It is awesome.
I cannot wait for season two.
Literally bingeed it.
How quickly does it pick up?
Quick.
Oh, it's out of the gate.
Dana was telling us on episode one, he's like, they get into it quick.
And it jumps off fast.
And it is, it's, it's about it, dude.
Yeah.
That show is awesome.
Shout out Dana White for the wreck.
One, shout out Dana White.
Good friend to the show.
Two, that show sounds sick.
Three, airlines, I just needed to say this.
They can't keep getting away with this.
it's ridiculous
I'm piss
if you look at the small riding
whenever you purchase a ticket
it's like
when you purchase a ticket
you are agreeing that
we can pretty much burn this ticket
wipe it with our ass
and you get no flight
and you still have to pay this
unless you also pay this for insurance
and that's an extra $300
which is the cost of your ticket
and that pisses me off
I'm sorry
that insurance doesn't even cover shit bro
it doesn't even covers
the not wiping your ass with the ticket
that's about it
that's about it
And so the whole sitting on a tarmac thing, that's a massive inconvenience.
That sucks.
It does happen though, right?
Like people, they fly and fly out.
If you look at a map of all the planes going on at one time, I can see where they get a little
little traffic jam, a little log jam every once in a while.
But the idea of waking up for a flight, an 8 a.m. flight.
Yeah.
And going to the counter and being like 11 a.
And what are you talking about?
And they just moved your flight because they decided to.
That shit's got to stop.
That is got to be.
That's crazy to me.
And they like, I even remember seeing the option.
know when they send you the option like hey we're looking for people to take a later flight and you
hit decline it's like though that happens so often it's like how in the fuck do they get this wrong
and you're right they got it they got to stop getting away with it who is accepting that who has all the
time in the world to go and be like you know what i'll take a flight tomorrow well we have to accept
it yeah i was going to say we do that quite a bit we do that yeah think about it if we're somewhere
we're like hey if this is going to be done sooner we can probably catch an earlier flight no no i'm saying
And if you're at the gate and they sit there and they're like, hey, we're looking for people to volunteer to move to a later flight or tomorrow flight.
Oh, got you.
That's like, what do I've never seen somebody walk up and be like, yeah, I love that $1,000 voucher or $500 or whatever it is.
I've never seen somebody do that.
What was the crazy situation that happened to Taylin and your kids that they had to like fly clear across the country?
They're in, um, I just north of Toronto at this spot that Grandpa Wynn grew up at.
I can't remember the name of right now.
It's not Turtle Bay, but it's something Bay.
And they had to, like, drive like an hour to half to Toronto, get to Toronto, and then it was so messed up that they're like, hey, the flights are canceled for like the next two days.
So they had to go back to whatever the name is Bay and wait two days to go back.
And it's like, well, how does how does this happen?
How am I not, how am I not learning about this until right now?
And then I'm standing in front of you.
I can't receive a text, a call, an email.
And all this bitch and it reminds me of, I think, what is it?
Louis C.K. has a bit on just planes like flying.
We bitched so much about flying,
but it's like back in the day they had to take horses
and we're bitching about the fact that like,
we're going to go across the country.
It's going to take two hours.
And we're all just.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The later day, it takes them three weeks.
Three weeks and they might starve to death on the way there.
Like, hey, likely five of your children might pass away during this.
And we're like, God damn, dude.
Yeah, yeah.
Like planes.
Take those odds every single time.
Yeah, planes are a pretty big breakthrough.
We have this fucking metal tube.
Yeah, this metal tube that just goes across the country in minutes or hours at a time.
And we're bitching about having some of them.
Yeah, we just want transplants all.
Like, with this and much technology advancing.
We can also get over the intercom, hey, just so you guys know,
shit's a little fucked up out here.
I know you don't know because you're sitting in the tube,
but I can see outside the tube and I'm letting know the tubes you'll be a little bit.
Right?
Yeah.
Talk it out.
Yeah. Communication.
Communicato.
It's key, dude.
It's key.
What else we got?
What else?
Oh, one thing I was going to say, this is very small.
When you're at the magic show and you said pigeons, then you went to doves.
JP, I love some backup on this, but I feel like pigeons are very underrated bird.
I feel like pigeons are a big time underrated bird.
I just got to get this one off my chest.
I got to get it off my chest.
I feel like pigeons.
I don't even know.
It's an overlooked bird.
Because of the history of them.
Yeah.
They used to be one of the most valuable, I don't I mean, I guess valuable animals in the world.
Right.
What did you do before text messages?
Right.
Pigeons.
Get your pigeon.
Yeah.
And now...
Couldn't just send a raven.
Couldn't afford a raven.
You gotta get the pigeon.
And apparently that's why they love being in the city because they're still around people.
Yeah.
They are the opposite of Wilcofton.
They like to be around people.
And also, people say they're gross birds.
They're kind of pretty.
Like, you've got a couple that are dragging some ass in the feather category, but there's a few of them boys.
Every few's got some.
Every few's got, yeah.
They're pretty, but they also look like they might be coated in gas.
It has like that gasoline type sparkle on them.
Yeah.
They all kind of like got into oil for a little bit.
Which I think it looks nice.
They're a vibe.
Every group's got a Jared B, man.
No doubt.
Jared.
Big part of this podcast.
The pigeons I've been seeing recently around here
that have not been caring about getting out of the road.
One, I was driving and he just walked.
I stopped, of course.
They get a little too comfortable.
Yeah, it's like, all right.
We did move on.
Respect and love pigeons, however,
like you need to understand who the alpha is on the road.
It's the reason we're at the top of the food chain.
No doubt.
They forgot.
We're up this episode to bring you.

And Jim Harbaugh basically,
like, suspended himself underneath the table with the chair.
So, like,
you couldn't see him if you were just to walk by and look under.
And he was there for eight hours.
No, shit.
Eight hours until he was found.
You know, they ended that table.
They were like, hey, we got tired.
We got to go eat some lunch.
Yeah.
Sat that table and enjoyed themselves.
Matt Ruh, a friend of the show,
but also doesn't follow a bus with the boys.
Alpha move.
No, this is my Twitter.
Oh, sure.
That doesn't fall sure.
You're zooming in on that
and you're looking at me like, well, it's crazy.
No, I was, I'm sorry.
I do understand that.
I was more so saying it's his profile picture now.
That's profile pick worthy.
Yeah, yeah, that photo does go hard.
It does.
The photo goes hard.
Yeah.
He's having fun.
He's having fun.
He's having fun.
Let's have fun in October.
We will be having fun.
Every day except September 20.
I'm trying to find the one where he was on the bull with Rayella.
Would love.
to see a picture of Matt Rule sitting in the front,
legs straddled over a bull, and Dylan Raola riding right behind,
holding his hips.
Nothing would make me happier.
Am I making that up?
Wasn't there one where he's on?
Yeah, there's one.
They're hitting a little sign.
What's the sign?
This.
What's this?
I don't know what it means.
But I assume it's got a little inside.
Yeah.
Football season's right around the corner, boys.
Yeah.
Football season, 76 days.
Future national champions.
76 days still.
Finally, football's back.
Yeah.
And I cannot fucking wait.
I know, it's going to be an exciting year.
It'll be electric.
We're going to do a lot of fun shit.
This is going to be a hell of a fall.
If this one partnership pans out.
If this one partnership pans out, if one partnership comes to us.
Well, I'm saying we got one in the works.
Yeah.
I think we're doing some fun ideas.
Yeah, okay.
It's just making sure.
Because when I was like trying to add on to that, you're like, no, you got one, though.
So the way you were saying one, I thought.
But you're like, you're not, you know, you're not including any others that we have.
And I'm like, oh, they're all awesome.
They're all great.
But this one that we're working on with a fun idea.
It would really set the tone.
Set the fucking tone.
Who's going to set it?
They're going to set it.
Yeah.
Because we got, our partners are outstanding right now.
Saucy.
We got good one.
That's a nice one.
Rayola rule.
What are the odds that attacks a Dermied bull?
What are the odds that's not a real bull?
Well, that's a live bull right there.
Hi.
Nothing like a man in short straddling a bowl, dude.
That shit is hilarious to me.
Look at Matt's face too.
That's what I was thinking, too.
He got some nice calves.
He had some good ones.
He got some Patty Chambers on him.
But look at Rule of Space.
Inside Joke with the boss.
Look at Rule's face.
Yeah.
You know, he's having a good time.
I like seeing him have fun because I know the boys
are putting him work right now.
You are?
Is he sending you videos?
Yeah, I give videos.
Is that 12 and a half?
Is that what that means?
That handside?
We're not here to predict.
We're not here to play hypotheticals.
A little 12 and a half.
There's a burning fire inside
that's very excited about this year.
There is.
There's a burning fire.
You don't say.
Hey guys, breaking news,
we'll come to excited
about the football season for Nebraska.
Holy shit.
But you know the stars are a line
a little bit different.
Yeah, I'm telling you guys are taking another step.
7 and 5.
We're fucking even doing this year.
But I'm talking the...
Capital one.
I'm talking the optimism you had before.
Or the one, the one, one better.
The Matt Rule, year three, when he first got hired,
hey year one might look like this, year two might look like that.
But year three looks like this.
But year three looks like this.
He made the Big 12 championship with Baylor in year three.
Yeah.
Who was his quarterback?
Nobody.
Boom.
That's how you know it's good for Nebraska.
You know it's good for Nebraska.
Come on.
But, but if we go seven and five, proud.
Yeah.
Proud.
Capital one.
Capital One.
I don't think seven wins gets you Capital One.
Got Michigan.
Capital wins a prominent fucking bowl.
If you play your cards right.
Play your cards right.
If you go seven and five as Michigan, you're...
You're in the Capital One bowl.
In the Capital One.
If you go seven to five at Michigan, you beat Alabama in the bowl game.
Orange Bowl?
I don't know.
What we play the...
I think it was like the...
It's like...
Is Capital One still a bowl?
Yeah.
Like a tax layer ball?
I don't think that's the thing.
No, Tax Slayer, that's the Gator Bowl.
But there's like the Relya Quest Bowl.
That's what we played in.
The Relya Quest Bowl.
It ain't no lawnmower bowl.
Ain't no bad boy.
It ain't no bad boy mowing bowl, baby.
That said,
why is everybody getting on to Matt Rule for being a bad boy
when he won the damn bad boy mowers ball?
And everybody's getting on to him.
Getting on them.
Let's give a quick round of applause to LSU
for winning the College World Series.
Big time, big time.
Also, O KC, we're in the NBA championship.
Good for them.
And that'll wrap up our NBA talk.
And there it is.
Hope you guys enjoyed that.
I can't believe all buddy towards Achilles, though.
That's crazy.
You, because he had, what, he had a strain calf going into the game,
and it was kind of like riding on the wall.
What would y'all do?
You're going to...
That's hard, bro, because it's game seven.
Right.
You play.
Yeah.
I mean, that's why you play the game.
If in your mind, you feel like you can go, you have to, I mean, that's, that's, it's like
that's why you play through injury.
Dude, there's three torn Achilles in the playoffs this year, I think.
Crazy.
And they're also calling this the least exciting NBA championship because of how the Thunder,
just the vibe of their team and everything.
There wasn't a ton of excitement even from the players after.
Yeah, they became criticized.
Hey, good job.
Good game.
Yeah.
It was, yeah, I mean, I didn't really follow it.
But it seemed like it was exciting from the standpoint of the Pacers being like,
what were they a five seed?
Yeah, they were a five seed.
And I think the Thunder deserved more credit because they build through the draft every year.
And they don't do the whole like sign a bunch of superstars, create super teams.
Each and every year they put together a squad full of just fully developed players that they chose.
And it's impressive, but they don't get to love.
Yeah.
Because there was a lot of excitement because this is the first game seven in a long time, right?
since Cavs Warriors.
Since Cavs Warriors, first game seven.
And everyone's getting all hyped.
I'm getting to the point where I'm going to have to watch this game.
Didn't.
But I was thinking to myself, I could probably pop this on.
And then I'm going to bed and I see that OKC wins the championship.
And then they're walking off the court like nothing.
Yeah.
I want to say I was seeing some things too that it was like kind of like scripted already written.
Because OKC had like there's championship buses lined up.
A score got leaked.
they love doing that though just like with the NFL yeah yeah it's always fun to talk about it being
scripted yeah um this had to make you happy this video of joe burrow it did and i love joe burrow we've met him
we saw him at uh ufc miami great guy a year ago great guy incredible guy but i think at this point
we can all give a little grace to people that throw pitches right especially when it's not in your
wheelhouse your boy grew up in a football locker room yeah all right both of us he spent hours and hours and hours
years of his life trying to perfect a pass.
And now he puts a baseball on his ham
and it's going about as well as mine win.
Not only once, twice, three, four, five times,
he throws this pitch.
I'm a huge fan of Joe Burrow.
And when Joe Burrow watches this clip,
he sees it, his boy showed him.
Hey, Taylor, I want disrespect to you.
I'm not.
I'm telling you, I get it.
As another elite athlete as well, Joe.
I think that's where the coin kind of has to stop
is the elite athlete.
If you're seen as an elite athlete,
you're expected to kind of do athletic things
and throwing a baseball would be one of those things.
Right.
He's now just a good football.
Yeah, he's now just a, hey, he can throw a ball really well.
You became like, oh, that's right.
He can just block people.
I'm just saying that's kind of, if I have to play...
First I got President Trump saying what he says to me
and I got my best friends saying the same thing?
If I can just play the other side of it...
Go ahead.
That is where it has...
to stop.
I can't be an elite athlete
because I messed up one pitch.
Kind of.
That is fucking crazy, Will.
That is crazy.
We've had these arguments on the bus
that, you know, we die on the hill
for football players being the best athletes
out of every sport. And these videos
of you and Joe Burrow having throws
like this when you guys are seen as elite level
athletes in our sport that we are trying to argue
and debate for when our best can't throw a fucking
pitch, that's where it's like we have no foundation to stand on.
Baseball and hockey are very unique sports.
It's a unique skill set.
It's a different, it's athletic ability.
How many fat pitchers do you see?
A lot.
How many fat first baseman you see?
A lot.
So we want to talk about running and jumping and lifting and stopping a man from point to point,
taking a man from point A to point B against his will.
Oh, oops.
Are you showing a fun clip of me?
Scoring a touchdown and burning these 11 yards running away from this big boy right here.
Yeah.
That's what athletes do.
And I've had to sit down for two weeks, whatever, let the haters play their little games.
Oh, you're just, you can just block.
Which now I'm finding out where that narrative's coming from.
He's just a blocker right there.
Right fucking there's where it's coming home.
I'm just saying that's what people argue if we give this debate.
People will argue that.
However, we're talking about running, jumping, athleticism.
You've worked out with me.
You worked out with me.
You're pretty quick.
Was.
Was pretty quick.
And what?
Grinding, athlete.
And we let a pitch get away from me.
One time.
One time.
One time.
And you guys have all played catch with me.
You have to winds up a little shaky.
Sorry, a little beat up.
Sorry, a lot of tread's been run off these tires because your boy's been working this whole life.
But.
I bet you could hit too
And I bet I could play hockey better than you guys too
At a later date
Not you Matt
With your fucking middle part
There was
First day he's talking like he's fucking
Sidney Crosby or something
People are just worried if you weren't 6-7
Like would
What would have happened?
If I was 6-6? 6.6? 6.4
I'd be a guard
And I would also be elite
We just don't know
That's the Twitter
I guess how.
What are you?
What are you saying?
Hey, as a guard, you got to be more of a, you got to be like a big mauler.
Not as much of a finesse guy on the edge.
First off, no.
Watch the finesse talk, okay?
We, no one's saying you were a bad.
I'm done with you first.
That's fucking go over here.
Talk about finesse?
You said that.
You say that.
I can do finessey things.
That's how athletic I was.
You're an athletic tackle.
I'm a speed guy.
But don't get a twisted.
I have trouble angry in.
When it came to a scrimmage, your boy was saying, guys, point A to point B against their will.
That happened.
Oh, Derek Henry, 99-yard touchdown?
That's weird.
That was where in left.
That is duo.
That is a gap scheme play.
There is no finesse in that game.
That's taking a three technique saying fucking see you later and then go to the mic and saying,
how's your mother?
And then letting Derek Henry do the rest.
Okay?
If I've a problem.
I don't have Budapaker follow up.
You know, these guys with no film talking like that.
Hey, listen, Budapaker got his.
That's no doubt.
All right.
We all know about the knee.
We all know.
That was the end of me.
That was the end.
That was the beginning of the end.
It was a shell of myself.
But we can all focus on 21.
Or we can look at the full body of work.
Okay?
Let's look at the full body of work.
This is 2016.
This is 2016, Taylor, right here.
No one nobody
Did I?
Did I?
Did I make a Pro Bowl that year?
Sure
Let me chat
Let me chat JVT
Nobody is debating
That you were an elite left tackle in the NFL
It's the elite athlete
Title that comes into play
So if we're taking in the full body of work
You have film
Doing other sports
Your most recent one being that pitch
To where it
It's hard to do
say elite athlete could it be argued that will may be a better elite athlete because he threw a
better pitch no i was just one i'm not saying will is a phenomenal athlete what oh is that chat gbt
what's that say will just with the blue taylor is widely considered an elite athlete however
chat gpt is not updated type it type as chat gpd did you see taylor wants first pitch yes i'll cross
check the first pitch yeah it's a computer how does it see that it just sees ones and zeros listen
will we're not i'm not this is will a well a better athlete than taylor thing will was a linebacker
in the nfell yeah undrafted yeah nine years but like not forget all statewide receiver do not forget
all state wide receiver i was a two-way player was a two-way player how many touchdowns you have in the
nfl oh god i can't a lot of hits to the head i think it was one less than me i can't remember
i think it was one less than got offered as a wide receiver in a four
back. Nice. Yeah. Nice. Oh, what is this? Well-rounded athlete. A double down. No-brainer.
We'll read that. Spectacularly bad throw. Nope. Don't read the whole thing, Will.
Yes. Taylor-Lawans's first pitch. Oh, do you want me to read it? I'll read it. I can
understand it. And I'll start over too. Yes, Taylor-Lawans' first pitch at the Cardinals game was a
spectacularly bad throw. Even for someone considered
an elite athlete.
Yeah, because I'm not elite athlete anymore, buddy.
Like, this is me now.
But if we're looking at just what I've done,
come on, boys.
Like, this is me and Joe Burrow against the world?
Is that what we got to do?
Me and Joe got a band together to fight busting with the boys?
Not a bad guy to fight with.
Great duo.
Me and Joe, Joe and I, a duo.
He can have the first name come out.
Joe and I.
Joe and Taylor fights the world.
Yeah.
And I got to see my best.
friend talking about buddy I'm with you but I can't just I can't sit here idly by and not
talk about what people are saying out there to at least hey it is debatable that's why
will was never he's always listening to noise that's the that's the issue right there
these other people are saying no dog these other people didn't run a 487 at 6 7 which is the
fastest time by any office alignment over over 6 6 which is a weird stat by the way it's still
a stat that's such a weird stat
Yeah, I got 30 reps on the bench.
Strong and fast.
Whatever.
Sorry.
Yeah.
When I was on my house hockey league team, I got a hatcherick in the house cup and we won.
Did you?
No.
You didn't, Will.
You ran away.
You played JV wrestling and you ran away and you got grounded.
You got grounded because you didn't want to compete.
That's what happened.
Your dad walked in and said, you want to shout out the title?
You said, no, pop.
No.
I don't want that, daddy, please, no.
So, come on.
You're bleeding in the water right now.
No doubt.
No doubt about it.
Because here's the biggest takeaway from that, too, that you missed, but I am on your side,
and I want you to understand this.
One bad moment doesn't erase elite athleticism.
Does not.
Does not.
Okay.
Does not.
So now you're back on my team.
We've gotten what we needed to out of this.
Yeah, yeah, we've squeezed the juice.
said this one.
But guys,
do you just know about Cash App?
That's bullshit, dude.
Because I, listen,
listen,
I did 30 they minus me more.
I did 30 they minus me one.
That is fucking crazy.
And it is true.

Hey, that is funny, JP.
At the combine, I do it.
I do the thing.
I get 30 reps and I get done.
And all I wanted to get was 30.
I was like,
dude,
if I can get,
that's like a great number.
I get my 30 and I pop up and he goes,
minus one.
Hips off.
I was thinking,
dis motherfucker,
bro.
My hips came off.
Yeah,
the hips thing.
That shit pisses me off.
It's like,
let me put my body into this a little bit.
I think we went back and washed up.
Right.
Exactly.
That was the case if I got like 35.
But what,
you know,
it's all good.

Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers.
And guess what? We have some big news.
What's the news,
huge news?
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.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts.
We're starting a trend.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
And we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early
names of our band before Jonas Brothers
was...
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
where people could call in and say,
Hey Jonas. And then I wrote down
on my little notepad, Hey Jonas,
and offered it up as a potential title
for the podcast. But thanks for remembering
that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the
IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

Boston, fun city, though.
Great city.
I feel like Boston is the Pigeon of America.
Like, it's underrated.
Yeah.
You're right?
Yes.
The pigeon of America.
That doesn't sound like a compliment.
Right. That's because pigeons are underrated.
They're overlooked.
But I was in Boston for a quick little deal, and it was beautiful.
A little dock.
Got myself some.
We went up there for any awards in that, though.
Yeah.
Got some water out there.
I got some water.
Some clam chowder.
But I went and ate some food on the dock.
It was really nice.
It was a little bit of a solo mission, but I do remember that as well.
That was nice.
That's fun.
Shut of Boston.
The party went down there.
The departed?
The town.
Yeah.
The town was in Boston?
God.
I think it shot it in Boston.
Right?
Yeah.
I just feel like any time I see Ben Affi...
But he's thinking about the town again?
Just another reminder sparking up from the town, but watch Mobblin.
Watch Moblin.
Watch Moblin. Respect pigeons.
Office of alignment or athletes too.
Those are the three takeaways from this show.
Yeah.

You're just like, this guy just loves football.

But do you ever just sit back and you Will Compton reads that to you?
That's the first time I've ever thought about that.
So that's a pretty cool ever.
That's the first time ever thought about that.
So that's a pretty cool moment to share with you guys.
guys.
How do you feel about,
tell me all your emotions.
Just outrageous.
Like,
I just remember,
like,
being a kid playing peewee football,
pop Warner football,
like in small town,
Iowa,
like with pads that are way too big,
just running around,
smiling and laughing,
and now I'm playing an NFL
getting paid a shittime money.
Still smiling and laughing.
Still smiling and laughing.
You play for free,
wouldn't you?
At this point in my career,
no.
But I think my first,
like,
five years in the NFL,
I probably would have.
I was just like,
this is way too much fun.
Are you kidding me?
You feel like a gladiator?
every time you go out there.
Like, you can't not.
He's outstanding.
Do you feel like a gladiator right now?
In the bus?
No, I feel like a bro.
Or your body.
How's your body feel right now?
I'm actually doing great.
So the one benefit of not making the playoffs is you get an entire month off.
Like, I haven't had January off since 2020.
So like.
George Kittle.
Better to not make the playoffs at all.
Yep.
That is a headline.
I said the one good thing out of not making the playoffs is you get that extra month to like recover,
take a step back.
You can kind of like work a little bit easier
into your training when you come back.
Like you just, you have time,
especially if you handle it the right way.
So like mentally and physically,
I mean, I'm light years ahead of where I was the last two years,
which is pretty fun.
Last year I was doing with surgery
and the year before that, I was really messed up as well.
I think the last time you came on the bus,
it was a groin, it was a rib, it was a shoulder.
You like, you was doing everything.
He was making dad noises getting on the bus.
It was brutal.
Now he pops up.
You're pulling up in your truck, honked the horn,
jumping out, big hugs.
Yeah.
Totally different vibes.
Listen to the little wind and big some plug.
Let's fucking go.
And you were just in Panama, yeah?
I was in Panama.
Just spent four days down there with the boy, T.J.
Hockinson, friend of the bus.
Friend of the show.
Friend of the show.
Kyle, Eusecheck, not on yet, but he was.
He was invited to Titan you this year.
He can't make it.
He has three nephews with the same birthday on the same day.
So he declined.
He declined.
It's crazy, right?
We were really going for Kristen Eustech to show up.
That's what our goal was.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is she not on a crazy ascension right now?
It's so cool.
Do you know about Eustech's wife?
Yeah.
The jackets?
Making all the...
Jackets.
Yeah.
And she made it tied in you one?
That's a great idea.
No.
Wow.
Dude.
Big great thoughts.
Big, big thoughts on the bus.
That's crazy.
We're on fire.
Kristen, I know you're listening.
She's been crushing.
I know you're listening.
Please.
No, but yeah, no.
Her thing is insane too.
Because I just remember sitting on the couch when Taylor Swift wore it in and just, I just had
her Instagram account pulled up.
And she went from like 75,000 followers to 600,000 followers in like two hours.
It's insane.
Nice.
Just like swiping the update.
How long?
Do you know how long she had been doing that before?
The Jaggons?
I think, I mean, she started doing it like, I want to say she started doing it like the year before, like on Halloween, she made herself an outfit.
She was like, I really like sewing and like I like making stuff.
That's how it started.
She was making a Halloween costume.
Damn, man.
And then all the-
Stubble in or something like that?
Yeah.
Is that crazy?
Oh, wow.
I'm really good at this.
Right.
Yeah, like she's fixed like, she's fixed so much of my clothing.
And then all of a sudden now she just has a deal, has a deal with fanatics, like all merchant.
like all was all licensing agreements she can do whatever she wants no shit it's insane is she still
fixing your clothes for you uh she did fix something for me a couple months ago did you really a pair
of Gucci shorts did it did it take time like were you kind of like a lower priority i was definitely
a lower priority but she did it i was like i don't need i was like no rush yeah but if you could
fix him please do and she did i was like dear queen i love that that is so fun
yeah yeah good for juice wish he was coming because we would love to have him on the show
I think he revitalized the fullback position.
Yeah, he is a fullback position.
It was faltering as essentially,
he's essentially the MGK of the fullback.
Yeah, he's kind of remade the position
the way he can catch it out of the back.
Can you, let's unpack that one.
What do you mean by that?
MGK is,
MGK and Chavez Barker are solely responsible
for bringing back Pop Punk.
There it is.
Okay, cool, thank you.
Kyle, use check.
No, I understand.
You're taking his sole responsible.
Look.
Yeah, no, no, no, no.
Are you talking about like, yeah,
no, I'm on the same page now.
You're with that.
Yeah, I'm with the time.
Do you agree with that statement?
I hear what you're saying
And I don't disagree
Okay
That sounds like a good insurance policy
For you to look into it a little bit more
Yeah I need to look into it
It is a little bit more
Yeah
We're sitting
Might begin Brock
Pretty?
Yeah
You're gonna get Brock on the bus
He lives in Nashville
Yeah we've been trying to get him
Yeah I know dude
Oh
I'm not gonna flame him on the pod yet
I'll just give me a little bit
You wouldn't be the only one to flame him on the pod
Oh who else did
Oh yeah you did that one time
Yeah you called me about it
Yeah, I called you.
I said, relax.
And I was like, he's probably right.
Yeah.
It was my first year.
I was like, I guess is what you're supposed to do.
Yeah, you got crushed.
I did.
I did.
And it was, yeah, first off, shout out 49ers fans.
They love their voice.
They love their voice.
You were making sure they had a pulse.
But it was it, exactly.
You were stirring the pot for them.
Yes, I was making sure, because you guys were doing really well.
It's really easy to get complacent.
And for me to go and stir that pot for you guys, you're welcome.
See you guys.
There's no one believed it.
Taylor's a good guy.
Yeah.
He's a great guy.
Wellington.
10.
Yeah.
Well,
well intended.
Well intended.
Good,
good intentions.
Yeah,
good intentions.
I'll take it.
But not only you,
but McCaffrey's,
yeah,
yeah.
But McCaffrey hit me as too.
Hit me as well.
McCaffrey hit me and he's like,
yo,
what are we doing?
Yeah,
and then we had him on a Zoom one day
and he like stopped the podcast
to basically tell me how I'm fucking up life.
Isn't he just the best?
He's awesome.
I love Christian.
I hate his ice cream taste,
but yes.
What was it?
I think his number one was,
uh,
mint chocolate chip.
It might have been, but he's a vanilla.
No.
No.
Juice is met chocolate chip.
You're vanilla and sprinkles.
Vanilla sprinkles caramel.
That's my go-to.
Moose tracks is my number one.
Solid.
But that is my go-to.
If I'm getting myself a tasty treat and I have to pick out my own toppings, those are
the toppings.
If you go to Coldstone, what's your order?
I'm getting the birthday cake remix.
Ah, love it.
Yes.
Yes.
And that is a top five.
I'm not even a chocolate guy, dude.
No, that shit.
I stumbled upon that one day is a wee lad and I've ever since then was like, holy shit.
Dude, I was like when I first, like when Coldstone first came to Iowa, I was like, oh, chocolate devotion.
It was, which is incredible.
And then I finally tried birthday cake remix.
I don't think I've ever had anything since.
Yeah.
It just doesn't ever miss.
Have you had jinnies?
Yeah.
Yeah, no.
I'm just saying anytime I go to, anytime I go to Coldstone.
Goody buttercake?
Yeah.
Goody buttercake is such a.
Buttercake's not okay.
And I bought that for a long time.
Buttercake's not.
I kept saying, hey, birthday cake remix, it's number one.
It's number one.
He's like, hey, this gooey butter cake.
I had a taste, but I wasn't open minded about it.
Yeah.
Finally, I taste it with an open mind.
I think it is number one.
I don't know if it's Jennings or another ice cream brand,
but someone has like a Rupert float flavor.
And that was, it was diabolical.
My chef got it for me,
and he made a Rupert float with Rupert float ice cream.
Yeah, I was.
Yeah, I don't know if I'm trying to think of Jenny's roster right now.
There's so many.
Their roster, they get weird with their names.
Their ingredients, they do take a lot of liberties.
They get a little aggressive.
They do.
But it's like, hey, gooey butter cake,
you can live on that for the rest of your life.
You probably, yeah.
Yeah.
You really could.
It's like a band that makes like a huge hit, like playing White T's,
Hither Delilah.
Like you can live on that song forever.
I feel like Hayther Delilah making a little comeback recently.
You think so?
Because that clip you saw it, the black guys.
Yeah, the black guys.
You say you guys that hate that song?
No, I love that song.
I love that song.
No, who is, I think my wife hates that song.
She thinks it's creepy.
She's got great taste.
No, there's like.
How's your, how's your mental health, doing?
My mental health?
Right now, not great.
Four and a half hours asleep.
I'm sure.
I think my wife.
hates that song. Yeah. No,
she does. Who else said something about
Brock? Oh, that's right. Yeah.
The wheels are turning. I should probably
open up this energy drink. By the way,
I think we should just take a potluck maybe.
It's right there. But we can all just put them there
so George can taste all three.
Oh. Okay. Why did you take the grape one?
I thought you gave me the grape one. You said you did?
That's, yeah.
Do you want the grape one? I mean,
at this point, we're past it. This is
another Anheiser-Busch product right here.
Oh, is it? Anheuser-Busch first formed Dana
So this is part of the fam right now.
The trilogy.
That's cool.
Cheers.
So do you want to try the grave?
No, you stole it.
You can still take a dream.
Dude, look, you're a dad.
You need it more than I do.
Thank you.
That is true.
I will accept that.
But four and a half hours of sleep coming from Panama.
Yeah.
When you look at possible lifetime earnings of what was it, 157-ish?
153.
0.9.
157 would be sick, though, right?
When you look at that, you signed the contract you did.
Yes.
Let's have a little conversation about what nice little juicy gift did you get yourself?
This time?
Nothing.
Oh, yeah, this is the third one.
It's kind of getting redundant at this point of.
This time I'm trying to remodel my house.
And so I was like, yeah, I'm good.
I'm going to chill on this one for a sec.
Let this one simmer for a moment.
What's your favorite luxury in life?
You have a ghost on the bus?
Yes.
Sick.
What's your favorite luxury in life?
And I think we all have the same answer.
Is this something that I can buy?
Or no.
Because I mean, spend your money on.
Something you look at and you're like, this is worth spending my money on.
Nice.
Anything on my property really is one of my biggest things.
That was a deep one, huh?
Anything that, anything on your property that you can spend money on?
Like, give us an example.
Building a football field at my house.
Building a workout facility.
Putting up a 50 foot American flagpole.
That's probably my favorite purchase of my property I've made.
My wife really likes that one.
How big is that flag?
Pretty fucking musive.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a right when you pull in, it's just right next to the football field.
So it's the only thing you can fucking see.
That's hot.
That's got to fire you up.
It does.
I saw it last night.
We have lights pointing up at it.
And I was just, I almost got out of the car.
I was like, oh, God, it's so beautiful.
So that's, yeah, that's one of my favorite purchases.
Hmm.
I'm about to buy an air stream, which is pretty cool.
Yeah?
Yeah.
It's an airstream.
Maybe the trailer.
Like the silver.
Oh.
That's right.
We had one in the show.
We had one.
We gave it away for pennies on the dollar.
Yeah.
We had to get rid of it.
Had to.
Yeah.
There's,
there's one of my neighbors has one.
They've used it five times.
It's like brand new.
And they're,
my wife drove past,
she was like,
can we buy that?
I was like,
it's really not that expensive either.
So I was like,
yeah,
buy it,
throw it on the property.
Is it a new,
new airstream or is like one of those like 70 models
that I've like been well taken care of.
I think it's a new new one.
Those are nice.
Yeah.
I think it's,
like,
like the last five years and the guys only use it like five or six times what are you going to do with
it you can go camping no i want to put on my property so when i have people over that it can be like a
fun little getaway on one of my property spots string some lights yeah just like my bonfire i already
have a tiny house in one part of my property put an air stream on the other side put some lights up now
you have a date night that is beautiful i like that move george oh yeah i don't want to leave my
i'm a fan of that move jr i don't like leaving my property very much yeah you're out there plenty
plenty of ways i mean 25 minutes for broadway's not bad
That is, what do you say it like that?
It doesn't sound so bad.
No.
But if I'm driving from my house, it's 35, 40 minutes.
I know, but it's, see, it doesn't make sense to me about that.
It's like, you're closer than Broadway is, but there's no, like, easy way to get to your house for my house.
Yeah, getting like that's a highway.
It's so annoying.
It's a pain in the ass.
Getting to Green Hills from my place is the absolute worst.
Did you guys end up working out that, uh, vaspir?
Yeah.
Vasper got, yeah.
How about that fumbled bag?
Yeah.
How did that work?
How did that end up?
End up.
Your boy came and picked it up.
Oh, thank God.
But I'll tell you what, it was a hassle.
Was it?
Yeah, because it's all my fault.
Yeah, that's.
But he would text me, hey, when can I come pick it up?
And then I'd go, a week would go by, like, when's this dude fucking picking this up?
And I go look at my text, like, oh, he texted.
I got to text him back.
And then it'll be a scheduled thing.
And then I go back into my zoned out world for another 10 days.
Yep.
And be like, oh, holy shit.
Okay, I got to text this guy back.
Finally he came and got it.
Yeah, you just said that.
And it's all taken care of now.
Did you meet Brandon?
Brandon.
That's your boy?
Yeah, the big guy?
Yes, I met him.
I actually, I opened the door as, hey, it's right up there.
I had to go to his pot.
I was probably coming to get a pod.
So I just booked right away.
Good people.
What are you doing with two vaspers?
What am I going to do?
Yeah.
I'm just naturally boost my testosterone.
Twice.
Double the test.
Yes.
I did you.
I walked in the barn this morning.
I didn't even notice it.
That's hilarious.
What are your,
what are your T levels at right now?
Couldn't tell you.
You don't look into it at all?
I do a blood test out in Panama every time I go down there, but I didn't look at the
results yet.
Should I pull it out on the pod?
we can go through my blood work with the i would just love to know your tea levels i just want to know
yeah yeah yeah yeah like you probably i'm thinking a hunter the last time you tested
remembered what were they couldn't tell you i know i was i think i was low though yeah it was like
at the end of a season yeah i was struggling i was struggle busting at that point i think it was like
last year when i right before i came in the pod and i was like broken yeah my tea levels were very low
how long are you wanting to play oh until literally until i don't have fun anymore
to the wheels fall off he's a wheels fall off guy
Yeah.
Or if Claire looks at me and goes, you kind of look like shit out there.
You should retire.
And I'll be like, that, right.
That's probably how to happen.
Yeah.
That early, yeah.
I don't know.
I think I like, I think if I get to like, I'm 35 and it hurts to get like, it hurts just to put pants on in the morning.
I think I'll be like, ah, this isn't that much fun anymore.
And then I'll have a conversation with myself.
But no, I'm feeling great right now.
Have you thought about the other side?
Um, not like, I haven't like day dreamed about it like that.
but like definitely I'm aware that there's potential opportunities
and like doors that could like be open
and so I'm just excited about those that stuff
can we talk about any?
Sure.
WWE?
I would love to do WWE.
Is it pretty safe to say that once George Kettle's done playing football
there's a WWE contract waiting for him?
I think there's definitely opportunity within that world
and I would love nothing more than be a part of it.
So this is my only like my only question mark with that is
I so much love being a fan of WWE.
Like I don't want to be.
want to like, I would only do
WWE if I like bought a ring
and practiced my ass off for a long, like
for a while so I wouldn't look like an idiot out there
because I've been in a WW earring like three
times. Like I don't know what I'm doing out there.
Like I have an understanding of how it works, but like
I haven't performed those. I haven't moon salted
off the top rope at WrestleMania like
Pat McAfee did. Yeah. Like what
Logan Paul does. Logan Paul.
He's incredible. You see what you want with the ballbriders.
Oh, dude. Incredible athlete. Also like I met him for the
first time. Could not have been nicer.
Really? Could not have been nicer. It was here in Nashville.
when they were here he had to he had to talk to him for like five minutes afterwards could
have been nicer to me and all my friends well yeah the internet's not entirely right about you
yeah yeah those boys do catch bullets all the time so many bullets all the time yeah they do a good job
with it I mean some of it is self-induced yeah it's self-induced but they're like they get the
game they really yeah they realize when it's time to let's get some negative attention right now
oh yeah they're so good at it it's incredible they are very smart what are some other opportunities
I feel like at some point
someone's going to want me to talk football
Someone
Oh dude
Actually this is my dream
Do you guys do you know what space marines is
Anybody?
Space Marines
Space Marines
Space Marines
You know what Warhammer is?
Yeah
You've heard of that?
Yeah
Yeah Warhammer
So like
Warhammer is like this vast universe
That none of us really know about
Think of like
It's not like Dungeon of Dragons
But like think about like that kind of cult following
It just says this like
following and then they finally made a video game about it.
And basically think of like you're playing gears of war.
Like that's the vibe of the video game.
Except it's like way more.
I mean, it was released last year.
So it looks amazing.
You go to different planets.
It's fucking insane.
Well,
I fell in love with that last year with Eric Soberton.
We used to play.
And they have all these awesome taggags.
It's like,
um,
the emperor's light is my torch.
Like you fucking work for this.
Like you're working for the emperor stuff like that.
It's really fun.
You're just jacked dude.
And he was murder,
murder,
murder,
aliens.
Henry Cavill is a huge fan of it
and he's trying to make it into an actual TV show
and so I'm trying to get into the
as an extra into the TV show
George Massacre again
I could be an extra on the side
getting eaten by an alien for all I care
Like you're into it that much
You just want to be a part of the production
I just want to be a part of it dude
Because like I'm sorry to put the video
It's like playing classic Halo 3
The campaign with all the awesome movie cut scenes
Like that's what it's like
It's just I felt like a kid again playing video games
I was like this game's amazing
So much fun
And it's just insanely violent.
What's the game called?
Space Marines.
Space Marines, too.
They came out with one a couple years ago that I'd never played.
But actually, it was like six or seven years ago.
But the new one is just so much fun.
But Henry Cavill, like, we'll just post on his Instagram.
Like, yeah, I had 30 kills a day in my game.
Because you played online now, too.
Really?
Like, dude, why are you such a big fit?
Sounds like something.
Can we pull that up on the monitor?
Can we check that out?
Dude, the last mission is like two hours and 30 of the minutes are movie
cutscenes.
It's incredible.
Gosh.
I love how much of a big kid you are, dude.
Oh, dude.
Right.
Like, for like you get, so you get two, what you get like, you get like a couple different
assault rifles, a couple different snipers.
That's in your cavil.
A couple different, a couple different snipers.
And then everybody you get like either a, like a sword, dual wielding swords, a giant sludge
hammer for like, it's insane.
Just having gameplay.
Sounds like, it sounds like similar to, uh, do you ever play Diablo?
Yeah.
On PC as a kid.
It's just without like, all.
the extra.
This is just a straightforward campaign.
Like there's not like you don't have to build and you don't have to change your armor and shit like that.
Got you. See, I am a sucker for the changing the armor, the adding new skills.
Type in Space Wrens too.
That's the first one.
George,
have you seen the guy on YouTube who makes his own animations for Warhammer 40,000?
Yes.
And they like, they should be on TV.
They are unreal.
Insane.
It's so good.
Do you have any idea what's going on right now?
No clue.
But I'm enjoying it.
I'm lost.
Yeah.
I'm lost.
Yeah.
I'm enjoying learning about it.
Space Marine.
Can I tell you something about this?
I'm not a huge fan of the name.
Space Marines?
Okay.
So Warhammer is the overall brand.
Got you.
Right?
Space Marines, so like this, the storyline in like the universe of space marines is like over the course of like this call it a billion years.
And so the space marines are part of, there's like one little part.
Like that's what he is right now.
He's a space Marine.
I mean, this game looks badass.
It looks badass.
It definitely has gears of war vibes.
Is Warhammer?
So it's all horrid.
You're affiliated with World Warcraft?
I don't.
I don't know.
I don't know.
But this cool thing is it's like hordes.
It's like zombie hordes.
They just run at you and you have all these insane guns and stuff.
Now is this just you're just playing like a solo campaign?
This one's just solo campaign.
This is like the first or second mission.
But it's like, see the guy's blinking red.
I don't know if you could see that.
Yeah.
See them blinking red.
So if you have your sword out, you can run out there and you have these like assassination animations.
Got you.
Yeah.
That's what makes it really fun.
But so you can play with it's like three plays.
your co-op. It's a fucking hoot. Yeah, this could be... I really want this guy to pull out his hammer.
This could be worth doing.
I really need this got to pull out his hammer right now. Yeah, I don't really want to, I don't
care about the minigun, man. I want to see you slice and dice and fools. Anyways, but that's
Space Marines. That's one thing I've been into. So you want to be in that. So essentially,
a little bit of acting also. Um, just be a part of some special things would be really fun for me.
But you're not very interested in like you don't want to be an actor. You don't want to go and do lines
and going to that world?
Or maybe dip your toe.
Like I said,
like if the door's open,
I'm,
I'm chilling.
Like,
I'm doubt to do stuff.
Yeah.
It's even the Mad Max series.
Right.
Right.
Or like get onto a Viking show.
Yeah.
That'd be pretty easy.
Yeah.
Yeah,
that'd be very easy for you.
Very easily.
How long has the TV been up there?
This TV's been here forever.
But mounted.
It wasn't a lower.
It wasn't a little lower.
This is nice.
Look at you guys.
You like this?
We got a couple upgrades around here.
Yeah.
We had interns?
Yeah, the interns, I can't get over.
That's awesome.
Yeah, how badass is that?
You have 518-year-olds in there.
Well, looking their ass off to it.
Who is the range 19 to 23?
Who's a kid in the Cardinals jersey?
The shirt.
Probably Coop.
Probably Coop.
We'll have some words with him later.
What's going on?
Oh, yeah.
That makes sense.
I don't need to hang out of NFC West guys, you know?
That's crazy.
I mean, the Cardinals, though, like how concerned are you about the Cardinals?
I feel like they've never been a threat to you.
I know, they put 46 on us last year in the last game of season.
Cardinals could be all right this year.
They could be all right this year.
It could be.
The thing that they do.
But you guys had a uncharacteristically really bad.
Oh, yeah.
No, we were terrible.
A lot of injuries.
But on top of that, we just weren't very good.
But no, what the Cardinals do on defense with their new, their head coach, because wasn't
their head coach, was he the opposite coordinator or the D.
The D.
I do not know the answer to that question.
Yeah, he was.
I think it was the D.
So, like, what he brought to the Cardinals.
Pull that up, sure.
And how they, like, let Buda Baker kind of just, he literally just plays what he wants
to do.
The whole Deven's base so Buda Baker can just freestyle.
It's insane.
And he's like one of the best freestyle in players I've ever seen.
It's impressive to see guys who were able to just kind of do whatever they want.
JJ Watt was one of those guys.
Buda Baker.
Yeah, I see you're bringing it up.
I see what's going through your brain.
Will Compton.
I'll be honest.
It was not factoring in my brain at all.
I heard JP's laugh.
I know.
I heard JP's fantastic.
And that's a JP as I'm right there.
Can you scroll down a little bit on him?
It is what it is.
I'll get mine, Buddha.
I don't know.
I'm going to figure out a way.
I'm going to have to assault Buda Baker at one point in my life.
He was a de-coordinator.
Yes, but what he did with their defense,
and like what they're doing,
it's like it's a very complicated defense
where the whole thing is just disguises,
disguises, disguises, disguises,
and then their guys are smart enough to handle it,
and they have a really good secondary too.
And they, I think they just added to their D-line.
So they have a chance to be really good.
The Rams are going to be really good.
I don't know about the Seahawks.
I mean, they got Cooper Cup,
and my guy Eric Sabert up there.
Who's their quarterback?
Sam, Darnold.
That's right.
Yeah.
See, I rid of Gino.
But, yeah, no, I think the NFC West
would be incredibly competitive this year.
It'll be fun.
Boomer can also rush the passer.
He's something with one hand.
Didn't he pancake, Will?
Taylor.
Yeah, Taylor.
That makes it way worse, George.
Oh, that's he right there.
Doug, you guys want to bring up
the worst day.
of my life. Yeah. With one hand. You guys want to bring up the worst day of my life right now?
Yeah. That was the worst day of my life. Yeah. I remember. I watched the low lights.
Thanks. Did you see any highlights? Yeah, I did. There were none. Yeah, there were. You had the
backside of a couple outside zones you were great on. Thanks, man. I appreciate it. So he is familiar
with your game. Oh, so we understand. I do. No, the, uh, George is like, uh, spoiled.
with his left tackle because he has the goat of all goats.
True.
Yeah, he's got, he's got the goats.
So like going there, hey, there's no one better than him.
I've done, right?
It's like, yeah, but you get to watch Trent Williams every single day.
Who is just above and beyond?
Still really good at football.
Isn't that crazy?
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Bro, he's such a massive human being.
That's great.
So he's, his nickname is the silverback gorilla.
Why?
And then the silver back gorilla.
Yeah.
Why?
Yeah.
Probably because he has eight silver back gorilla tattoos on his body.
Okay, fair enough.
His entire back is a giant.
giant gorilla just sitting there.
Like it's just a massive gorilla.
That is wild.
Yeah.
See if you have his back tat.
Yeah.
He had this shit in college, I'm pretty sure.
No doubt.
So he has, so he has no space left on his back.
So that's all tatted at this point.
Yeah, go to that one.
Yeah.
And it says silver back on his back, like a jersey.
I love how the chains flipped around too.
Oh, you know he's like that.
I get this photo a quick.
Yeah, yeah.
Trit's different.
With this little bucket.
But it's over, like, I'll post a photo, Trent.
And like, I like to use, like, emojis when I post photos with my teammates sometimes when I'm in season.
And, like, so I post like, it'll be like me, Trent and juice.
So, like, I post like a Joker card, the juice box and then a gorilla.
And like, 10 people come on like, that's racist.
I'm like, no, it's not.
That's just, that's, that's, you're white.
You can't say it's not.
It's self-proclaimed.
Self-proclaimed.
You'll hit the Joker card.
You hold the juice box.
And you'll be like, oh.
Oh, literally right.
Yes, man.
I think about it.
I'm like,
uh,
internet's going to take this one weird.
Yeah,
here come 10 DMs from really angry people.
Trent,
I love calling you silverback,
but do you realize,
you understand how you kind of put us in a tough spot?
I don't think I posted it for like two years because he,
yeah,
it's been a minute.
Yeah,
it's been a minute.
Look at that fucking NFL photo.
That's tough.
Is he,
is Trent the best football player you've ever seen?
Oh.
Um,
because 49ers have an Arsenal.
Your roster is crazy.
Yeah, we have five first and all pro players within the last, just based on the last two years, it's pretty sick.
Well, they, they don't do fullbacks, right?
Juice, because then they took fullbacks off all pro, didn't they?
Or did they just put it back on?
No. That's what we're the wrong guys to ask.
Yeah.
I thought you guys are like in touch and stuff.
We just played, man.
You also, you also talk about it.
Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers.
And guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to a...
We're the first people to do podcasts.
Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how did we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band.
Before Jonas Brothers was...
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas,
and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.
The story I've told myself about love or relationships can then shape my behavior,
and that can lead me to,
sabotage the possibility of connection.

A football?
Twice a week.
Once.
Well, in the fall, yeah.
Twice week in the fall.
Twice week in the fall.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We kind of don't stop talking about football.
Exactly.
But like, yeah, so.
But Juice, we can just assume as an all pro guy.
So six guys.
Yeah, no, Tren Williams, I think, is probably the most talented player I've ever played with.
Like effortless.
Yeah.
It's just crazy.
Dude.
Yeah.
Like, one of my favorite things ever was 29, no, wasn't 2019.
It was like 2020 training camp or 2021 when him and Bosa just went out.
It was pretty fun to watch in training camp.
That was.
Yeah.
I think there's a story about Joel Staley.
like Bosa called Staley
and was like, how do I beat
Trent Williams?
Probably did.
That's how good Trent Williams is.
I just remember Boso beat him
on like a one-on-one-reep.
Like, yeah, that pick,
like he beat him on like one or two
one-on-one reps.
And in 2020, we had Jordan Reed on the team
tied to him from Washington
who played with Trent.
And he was like,
nah, man, that's shit crazy, man.
I ain't ever see Trent lose, man.
This shit crazy.
I love Jordan Reed.
Dude, he's the best, man.
Is he going to be out at Titan, you?
This year, he might be there.
I got to call him.
He said he was going to swing through.
We got Jeremy Shockey this year.
That'll be really fun.
Oh, no shit.
Yeah.
Yeah, that'll be a good one.
That's fucking awesome.
I know.
Might have to get him on the bus?
Yeah, you should ask.
He'll be here.
He gets in Monday, I think.
Dude,
Shockey's the man.
He is.
Just those moments when the helmet comes off and he just keeps
shot.
Yeah.
They just watch a Jerry.
Get a big hit.
Watch a Jeremy Shockey highlight reel.
It's like one of my favorite things.
Yes, dude.
Oh, my.
Have you.
you guys seen those those tic-toks where it's like it's showing off like a highlight and then all of a sudden it's like um
lukekekely oh yeah yeah who's next that's who's next dude that is one of the funniest that is one of my
favorite accounts to he didn't want to jeremy shocky and i i think i saved and i watched it pregame like last

he does a j cutler one that's all the jettrick one is so good oh when he's running a
Truck sticky people.

He's so funny.
Yeah, he's, uh, he is fucking funny.
I think he did a Compton one, didn't he?
He did.
Wasn't going to bring it up.
Wasn't he going to bring it up.
Here we go.
Adding.
I think he did one on you too.
He,
I was a piece of one, but I wasn't like the, uh, the focal point.
You're wasn't the vocal point.
He goes, look at my guy here.
I've watched it 70 times.
Look at my guy here.
Take out of the watch it right there.
Just like what about.
my quarterback after the Sherman hit and yeah that guy he does a great job he needs he needs to
produce more content is what he needs to do yeah he I mean you could do everybody in that fall he's so
funny yeah it's awesome like go do Troy Paul Mala you be hilarious right yeah like any two Ed Reed
John Lynch we had Troy on the podcast in his demeanor watching what he did on the field and
him coming in but hey guys how you doing oh everyone all right unreal what a nice guy unreal who's this
Troy Paul Moller yeah well sorry
Did you get back from Panama?
You're four hours of sleep.
Yeah.
Blanked up.
Bro, you're not wrong.
Who's this?
Where am I right now?
Yeah.
Shoot.
You talked about admissions of talking football.
Like, there is a friendly local show that you could join.
Oh, but when it's over?
Yeah.
Oh, boys.
I'm for the boys at all times.
Trust me.
You know, there'll be a bidding war, right?
That's the scary part.
That is the scary part.
Potentially.
ESVN.
The Pirates.
ship.
Yeah.
Everyone's gonna go after George.
Yeah.
But you know the best part about that is,
we'll find out where George,
where you truly...
Where my loyalty lies?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because we know money's not the issue.
Well, alignment shouldn't be the issue.
No, alignment's definitely not the issue.
I mean, this is probably the most aligned he would be with any brand.
You would think so.
Of the hitters and shoppers out there.
And it's local.
Yeah.
I mean, and we're both Bud Light athletes.
Yeah.
We are.
Hmm.
Interesting.
Interesting place to be.
Very, very interesting, boys.
It's riddally, very interesting.
Do you ever talking about playing to the wheels fall off?
Do you ever worry about your body?
Like when it's over and it's all said and done?
I think I had that like dilemma where I was like thinking about it a lot.
I think specifically like after the 2020 season because like I broke my foot.
I got fucked up a little bit.
And I was like damn like I heard that to be on this shit.
And that's where I kind of like I do so heavy to stem cells.
Like I do a brain scan once a year.
Everything's good.
Happy report.
That's awesome.
That's awesome.
Not a whole lot of clouds up there.
Nope.
Doing pretty well up there.
Yeah, we're doing good up there.
But like I try my best is like to stay on top of as much as I possibly can.
Like whether it's a VASBirk, that's healthy for you.
Red light therapy.
Like as many IVs as I can just to keep my body up.
So like I think I'm doing a pretty good job of it.
So am I worried about it?
At some point it's going to affect us at some point.
Right.
But just try to get ahead of it as best as I can.
How much do you think you put?
your body a year. How much money do you put into just keeping your body right? If we're talking like
in the ivies everything the VASPR. Vesper doesn't cost anything after you was just by it. But you
understand the training the I mean in season trainers in season anywhere from like 150 to 200 thousand
per season for like especially like the last three years at least and then I mean total yeah it's
without everything I bought too I'd like another 200k on top of that too. Yeah you're your
Up it towards half a mill.
Yeah, you're flirting with half a million dollars a year.
Call it $250 at the most.
Because a lot of things I bought and I don't have to pay for them anymore.
But I know you just got that brain scan,
but if you talk about the numbers you just did,
you said in season, 200.
And then after everything,
I would say in season about $150 to $200.
And then, like, out of the season,
I mean, I did a marketing deal with my STEM cell.
So, like, I don't pay for those anymore.
So that saves me, that saves me a ton of money.
Because those are expensive, but worth it.
So, like, that saves me a chunk.
Like, I do stuff like that guy.
I try to do deals with people that I know that I'm going to use all the time.
Yes.
Brands that align with what you're trying to do with your life.
Yeah, be as healthy as it possibly can be.
How did you get a vaspir for free?
I can't tell you that.
That's fine.
Actually, I don't know.
There it is.
That's better.
It was like seven years ago.
Maybe five.
I have no idea.
But literally I was like at exos in Arizona.
They talked to me about the vaspers system, the BFR,
yeah, all that stuff.
Hey, the testosterone, the pituitary gland, the whole thing.
And I'm like, I got to have one of these.
Yeah.
So I think I went through them.
And they got me to the,
distributor and then we did a deal.
Oh, that's sick.
But they're like, you can't resell it
for commercial use.
And I think I used it three total times.
Oh, that's tough.
Three total times.
To the point where I'm like,
I know this is good for me,
but I never like took the time to do it.
Like, yeah, look at the protocols and all that.
Yeah.
And it just, it bums me out.
Bones me out that in buying
because the way you talk about it,
I'm like, man,
I probably should have done that.
As soon as I get back from,
like, I do it a little bit during OTAs,
but as soon as I get back in like the summer,
it's like my cardio every day
at the end of my workout.
So like,
I'll lift, I'll run my routes, run hills.
And then I do like a 20 minute vaster session four days a week, no matter what.
No shit.
I love it.
You feel, dude, you also, it knocks you the fuck out at night.
Unconscious.
You sleep so well and you have wild dreams too.
It's awesome.
I like vassper systems doing a whole bunch of different things.
I mean, yeah, I'm not the main selling point is you blow huge loads.
Oh, for real.
Oh, yeah.
That's what's, that's what.
Yeah, I'm going to eat that back.
Yeah.
Oh, so like.
What kind of loads we talk?
This sounds like huge ones, Will.
Huge ones.
I know.
I was like, how do I sit?
No, I just got to say it.
Like, that's how it was sold like to like players.
It's like, look, it boost your testosterone and you sleep really well.
You're going to feel great.
And you also blow huge loads.
I was like, oh, that's bullshit.
Not bullshit.
And then that rumor started going around.
And so like in like 2019, dude, like they're like six or seven coaches that were doing it all the time.
Like, who was it?
Like Matt, oh no, Mike Lafleur.
Like one of our OCs.
He was in there all the time.
Just pumping away at it.
going to town
post practice he was the first guy
and like he would jogging off the field
so he'd beat all the players to do it.
That is hilarious.
It was hilarious, dude.
Yeah, that's what it looks like.
Yeah.
Can you explain what it does?
VASPER system.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, this is tough for the people listening
on Spotify and Apple music and stuff like that.
What the fuck is VASPR?
Well, you can Google it.
You can Google VASPR.
But basically it's like a recumbent bike that you sit on.
It has BFR, which is blood flow.
So like the things that they take your blood pressure with that
pumps up, it cuts off your blood flow.
You put down your biceps and then on your biceps.
And then on your,
quads and you basically just do like a 20 minute workout I think it's like it's called it's a 21
minute workout but you can kind of customize it and you basically sit there and pump and like it has
sprints it has calm so it's like highs and lows basically go through this workout and but the thing is
the chair you're sitting on and then the cuffs on your legs and on your arms and then you put just like
a very loose one on your neck there's no pressure there it's all ice water so it's like you're
chilling your body while you're doing a hard workout it tricks your body into thinking that's
that's a very old one but it just
tricks your body and the thing that you just did a super, super hard workout. And then it just
like replenishes your body. So like it thinks you just did like a two and a half hour workout.
So then it replenishes your body to like recover. But you actually just did like a 15 minute workout.
Yeah. Like the biohackers out there are going to ruin me. But like there's a pituitary gland you have.
And it the tricking part makes your body think you've done a huge workout. So it releases.
That's the ice on your neck. So it's like a little strap goes around your neck. It's so cold.
And it like tricks your body. And so then it releases all these.
Yeah.
Because your body thinks you have all this extra inflation, inflammation.
Inflammation.
So it goes to help tendons, helps joints, helps muscle recovery, everything.
And it basically pumps testosterone in your body.
Yeah.
So recovery is way faster, muscle growth and all those things.
Yeah.
It's all doing a minimal, like relatively minimal.
It's cool, too.
The VASPR, the guy who invented it, his office is less than 10 minutes away from our facility.
Oh, really?
They used to be on a NASA base or a military base.
Yeah, it's him.
Now, do you have the pad you lay on after?
I do have it.
I don't, it just depends if I have time for it or not.
Like, after I've done like my four-hour workout and then I do that, my wife's like,
can we like do something now?
Like you've been working out for five hours.
I'm like, yeah.
Yeah.
I'll skip the thing.
Thing about laying on a pad, a cooling pad for 10 minutes.
Yeah.
It's like, yeah.
All the other four and a half hours, that's totally fine.
Yeah, I know.
But that 10 minutes.
I'm just like, yeah, I'm done.
That's the brain of an athlete in a nutshell, folks.
Is that crazy?
Yeah.
How old are you know?
31.
So 31 years old, like what does when you're at, when you're home for the summer and stuff?
Like, what are your, what's an average day look like during the week for you?
Let's see.
Well, I'll start.
My training stuff will start next week after.
So we have tied in you Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
I'll probably train Monday morning and I'll go like Thursday, Friday.
But usually it's a, I think we start.
We have like breakfast at 830 to 9.
And then our workouts like 915.
We start with a lift unless like C.J.
Beth who wants to throw before the lift.
and then we just bump it a little bit.
But it's like an hour and a half lift,
whether it's upper or lower,
with my guy, Josh Cuthbert.
We have like 10 to 20 guys in the summer.
I like the summer because we get Titans guys and stuff like that.
Like, I'll have like 18 to 25 guys in my gym.
It's a hoot.
You guys would love it if you ever showed up for it.
I've only invited you for five years.
Yeah, no.
Friends of the pod.
Friends of the pod.
We need to be friends of the barn.
Yeah, you need to be friends of the barn.
The far left pick is actually what it used to look like.
And then, yeah,
So that's where we used to train was in like the horse barn.
And I built a whole new facility next to that to the left.
Sponsored by Techno Gym.
Shout out them.
They're fantastic too from Italy.
So I work out.
And then we take like 15 minutes.
We go up to the field.
My speed guy or agility guy, Jeremy shows up for that one.
Puts us through like any type of linear workout or like an agility workout, like cone drills and stuff like that.
Work a lot of releases.
do that drill for,
that usually takes like an hour to an hour, 15,
and then we run routes afterwards,
like two to three days a week.
I try to run by,
by the end of July,
I'm running 30 routes,
three days a week, minimum.
We got up to like 45 last year.
It was great.
Because I just, like,
there's nothing worse
than going into training camp
and you don't feel like you're in shape.
Yeah, that's a horrible feeling.
When the helmet goes on,
you're like, even this is difficult.
Oh, neck starting to hurt.
Dude, shout out,
shout out these guys.
These are my Iowa boys, washed up walk-ons.
Washed up walk-ons.
Yeah, so that's Drake Kulik, who's also,
I hired him to be my head of security.
There's David Bakhtiari.
Stud.
He's a stud.
But wash-up walk-ons, they have a podcast.
It's three dudes who are all walk-ons.
So that's, yeah, Ward and Clover.
He was a long snap around the left, safety on the right.
And now they just host a podcast and talk Iowa football.
It's pretty funny.
They do a good job with it.
Do you ever feel like you get burnout working four hours a day
before the summer
and then you go right into camp
and then you have
August to
hopefully February.
Yeah,
that's what I was wondering.
Yeah.
No,
my anxiety of like performance
is way too high.
A paranoid survive.
Yeah.
I'm like,
one,
the NFL is not for long.
Two,
how are I always view it?
And I can't remember.
I think it was like
an NFL athlete
came back to Iowa
and I was like a sophomore in college
and he talked about how
he was like,
I train the way I do
because every single one of you guys
would dream,
your dream is to be
have my job.
And he was like, he basically said, fuck them kids.
And it's like every, like there's, there's a hundred thousand kids who would dream of
being the starting 10th in for the San Francisco 49ers.
And it's my job to not let any of them achieve their dreams.
I mean, that's kind of a bar.
Yeah.
And so like in my, like, I literally just have this itch in the back of my head.
It's like, if I don't hit like my quota of like what I know is the right amount to
train and then like I can't.
It just all I think about the rest of the day.
How do you temper your workouts in the season?
In season?
because you're going from this like maximum effort
you're trying to get your body right
you're running your conditioning
yeah now you get in the season
let's let's put our minds in the middle of October
lifting in the season every Monday
the entire year I front squat
315 pounds for three reps no matter what
front squad every Monday throughout the entire season
every Monday for the last eight years
315 front squat
that's what me and Fred Warner
that every Monday together
and then last year I actually
in December I got my
dumbbell bench press, I was hitting
145s for three reps, which was nice.
It's impressive.
Try to keep my strength up.
Because if I don't work out, dude, I lose so much weight.
And then, like, it's hard to play Titan at 235.
Like, I have to be, like, over 240 to block.
And anytime you get underneath that, it's very difficult.
Yeah, because I got to block guys like Nick Bosa.
And they just, like, can pick me up and move me sometimes.
Yeah, and the kid looks like an action figure, too.
Yeah, he's disgusting.
You know, so it's so gross by Nick, too.
I'm pretty sure he just turned 27.
I'm like, oh my God.
Like he hasn't even hit it.
He hasn't even hit his like his peak of like being a guy yet.
Like that's like 28, 29, 30.
It's guys like that who just come in the league and are already a force.
And then you look, he's been to leave for, I don't know, what, six years now?
Yeah, 19.
And you're just like this.
Oh, he's been around forever.
It's like, no, he hasn't.
He's just been dominant.
Yeah.
Since the minute he stepped in the football field.
He just hasn't.
He just, he's always good.
And that damn sprinter stance.
Just could go around you, can go through you.
That's like.
And just built like a specimen.
Yeah.
There's like, I'm like,
I'm like,
good quads.
Nick Bosa and Derek Henry are like two creative players.
Yeah.
You look at him and you're just like,
yo,
what the fuck is this?
I mean,
Miles Garrett.
Yeah,
Miles Garrett's a creative player.
His training videos are insane.
Those box jumps are nuts.
No,
what was he doing?
I saw he was doing like single leg,
single leg squats with like
315 on his back.
I'm like,
dude,
fuck you.
Like,
are you kidding?
Good for you, man.
Holy cow
He is a
He is an impressive
human being
Yeah
Impressive human being
But even playing him
I played him as rookie year
Yeah
And just looking at the other
Like this kid's gonna be
A fucking monster
Yeah
Monster no sex
But monster
Dude it's impressive
That you put up
315 every Monday
Every Monday
Without fail
I
Literally
There's a like
The tort
I still in the system
So what?
Is the rep scheme
Change
No it's always three reps
I started
Start at 135
185
285 225
275
315
And that's my squat for the day.
And I do some other lower body stuff.
But I like that's a check.
I have to hit that checkbox.
Because if I can do that, I can play football.
Now there's a couple like there's times like if I have like a weird like a weird injury or something like that.
Like we like I'll do like a different type of squat.
But I still try to do as heavy as I possibly can.
But hey, you got to do it.
Yeah.
What's your, what's your thoughts on back squat?
I haven't back squatted.
I had in high school I had a stress fracture like my L4.
And if I put more than like 225 of my back,
I can't walk the next day.
And that's been,
that's been since I was like 17.
That's where I'm at right now.
Yeah.
So front's got,
that's,
front's got to have had zero issues.
Maybe I have a fracture
mile four.
You got,
you're shrinking.
Yeah, yeah,
I'm getting, yeah.
Maybe you showed to the barn
once in a wall.
Oh,
the ghost is back.
He brought a helmet.
What kind of helmet is this, Will?
It's George's helmet.
Why is this helmet here, Will?
George's game,
Hillman from Iowa.
I guess George wanted to bring it in today.
Yeah, of course.
I totally brought this in myself.
you guys steal this from my barn
you remember when you sent it
oh yeah
fantastic
why did you send that
I think it was because
it was a reverse
Father's Day gift for Will
because Iowa is his daddy
God that went
that went better than I thought
that was more hurtful than I thought it would be
you know what's really fun though
I have two Nebraska players on my team
for the first time in a couple years
Luke Gifford
yeah yeah
Yeah. Love that guy.
He's a man.
Dude.
And also, I know.
For the first time in a couple of years, it's tough.
Well, this is, I have my first Iowa teammates in C.J. Bethard in 2020.
No shit.
Connor Colby, we drafted him in the seventh round, the offensive lineman.
I'll just put that next to you.
Who's the other Nebraska boy?
Uh, wide receiver.
I'm so bad with rookies, number 14.
Um, he was like your tall, lanky wide receiver last year.
Starts with an N.
Oh, yeah.
Oh.
Neier.
Yeah.
I want to say Neymour, but that's not it.
14 is his number.
He's a good kid.
I like him.
He's a freak.
He is really tall.
And I watched him.
He was running a route.
And he got, he got like nine and a half yards in two strides.
I was like, holy shit.
He was, he was insane.
We watched it like 10 times as the tight end room.
We're like, how is he doing this?
It's funny too.
Squad.
When did he get drafted?
Did he get drafted?
No, he's undrafted.
He's got a shot?
6, 4, 4.40.
If you, I mean, if you're that tall,
all, like just make plays and do all on special teams.
Right.
Like, at the bare minimum, he should make practice squad.
Just imagine six, four.
How much weight?
Uh, 218, and he runs a 4-4.
Six, yeah, that size.
He's a freak.
Gunner.
He made some good plays, too.
Yeah.
Well, he can make himself a nice little career.
It was a four-for guy.
It was really funny.
He, um, like, you know, like, rookies are all shy kind of to start.
Yeah.
And it kind of towards the end of the OTAs.
He just walked to me, hey, go big red.
And I was like, I love it.
What is, uh,
Just so I know, when's the last time Nebraska beat Iowa?
What, like, yeah, two or three years ago.
Oh, okay, so it hasn't been that long.
No, it's, Iowa's won nine out of the last 10.
I was going to say, you look at the last 10 years, they're 9 in 1.
It's tough.
Yeah.
Are you nervous at all?
Are you following your boys at Iowa?
Mildly.
Are you familiar with the team that you feel good about this year?
Because there's rumors swirling about Nebraska on this bus right now.
Oh, well, I mean, every year he says, why are we not going to win 11 games?
Like, this one's a maybe.
And he's like circling Oklahoma, like something.
He goes, this is a maybe.
But everything else, this is easy, easy, easy, easy.
I'm like, I love the confidence.
Every year.
Every year.
This year is different.
And I know I said that every year, but this year.
No, because you still have the same coach.
Yeah.
But hey, there's rumors about that too.
He's not focused on ball.
That's not a rumor.
That's just your opinion.
Oh, no.
No, no.
No, but that.
There was a question on our pre-production sheet last week's podcast.
What was it?
Matt Rule taking this year seriously.
Oh.
Right.
That's on our project.
That's an internal.
Yeah, but I'm not having that opinion.
I'm seeing that.
I'm like, wow, we should really look into this.
That's funny.
Well, I just think how many years is Kirk Ferrence have left in him?
I would say he signed his deal through 2027.
I mean, it's Kirk Ference's job until he doesn't want it anymore.
That's what that's going to happen.
He's going to be the, he's the king of Iowa.
Let's see.
But I was just saying Matt Ruhl, like,
it takes a couple years, like, get your program installed.
Yeah.
So, like, they're just, they're going, Nebraska's going to continue to get better and better.
It's, football's also better when Nebraska is good.
It is.
Very big of you to say.
I feel like football has been pretty good for the last two decades.
Could be better.
Yeah, but speaking of college football.
Wait until it gets better.
Dude, we, uh, yeah, wait until it gets better.
But, like, we, they're, I'm not going to name any of their names, but like, so we, like, you know, you have rookies.
And we had a great rookie class, like every office of install that we do during OTAs.
A rookie has to get up and tell a joke.
And everybody did it, except for one of our running backs.
So I don't know if that's Christian's fault or Juice's fault for not making them do it.
Because their other rookie did it.
I needed a good joke.
Oh, also this Isaiah kid had a fantastic joke.
It was phenomenal.
Not appropriate to share on the bus, but very funny.
Okay.
Most of all the good ones are.
I was so impressed with it, too.
Because it was like a story and I had no idea it was happening.
And the punchline at the end, the entire room was crying.
I was really impressed.
but we make him do name school signing bonus
and this year we added NIL too
and one of the kids was like
yeah I made he was undrafty he goes I made
$30,000 signing bonus
like ooh yeah good for you man
and then he's like
I made $700,000 in NIL I was like
God man why did you declare for the draft
that is yeah play another year man
are you kidding me it is the NIL thing is crazy
it makes what's the highest number you heard
in the rookie class
Um, let's see.
Someone was over a million.
I just can't imagine making that much.
I mean, granted, I wouldn't have made that money.
You might have.
You probably would have.
No, off its line.
In the years that I was at Michigan, we were terrible.
DeNard Robinson, he would.
Oh my gosh.
Yes.
That would have been sick.
Dinar.
We're all making healthy six figures.
I mean, at Iowa, I'd probably be, I'd probably get like 25.
But like, can you just imagine getting like a $25,000 check as a college shoe?
I would die.
more than 25.
Even on that.
Yes,
you're right,
Blake,
just like you could get a sick apartment.
Like,
just that,
like you could just.
I remember getting like 1500 or 2000 pale grain.
Oh,
yeah.
All of it.
She is.
She got all of it.
She's now she's uplifting an entire sport.
Yeah.
Yeah.
First game back just dropped 32 on their heads.
Her first game back was the nine points in whatever.
Yeah.
45 seconds.
Okay.
She did.
You know,
You did.
You know, it's crazy.
You don't, every time you talk about Kail, you don't have to talk about Angel
Reese.
Maybe that's what's wrong.
That's the rule.
No, no, no, no.
That is the rule.
Not at all.
That's what makes rivalries great.
That's what make rivalries great.
You need this.
Angel Reese needs Caitlin Clark.
I'll let you say that.
Yeah.
I think so.
I think, I don't know.
I don't want to get into a, so murky waters that I'm not aware of.
Don't, yeah.
It's murky waters.
Then I'll, hey, then I'll put this bad boy in reverse.
I'll put this motherfucker in reverse.
He just said,
Angel Reese needs Caitlin Clark
and you're like, listen, I don't want to get into Mercury Waters
that I'm not aware of it. I just saw
everyone's face in the bus. I was like, oh, there's something I don't
know about that I'm saying right now. I just, I don't know
man. Yeah. Yeah, you know,
listen. They go hawks.
Yeah.
I like college football, man. It'll be interesting to see what happens to
Nebraska this year. Because you know, the Boston Bulls back this year,
September 20th. Is it really? Yeah. September 20th.
Lines will be drawn in the sand.
Where is it at? Nebraska.
Oh, I will say, I think, I think I think,
every time. I think Nebraska is still one of my favorite stadiums. I'm excited. I'm excited. Nebraska is
one of my memorial stadiums is like my favorite stadium playing. It is a great spot. It is so fun.
It is loud. It's obnoxious. It's just like there's not a lot of it's like an NFL stadium in
college. That's why I like it. Yeah. It's tall. It's just like most college stadiums. It's a great
stadium. Good stadium. We went to Nebraska, Colorado. Oh. And they were doing, they did a drone show.
Oh, that environment. Whoever was.
rocking the board was doing an incredible job yeah yeah it was awesome so between um Nebraska
they turn off their lights sometimes right at night fourth quarter yeah that so it was like four
years ago I sent a highlight of that to um like our president Al Guido awesome dude and I was like
do we have to be able to do this stuff for the Niners because like we have like the old school like
we haven't renovated our stadium since it was built in I think 15 and so they we they're
completely renovated our whole stadium. We got all new lights, all new scoreboards, all new light-up
stuff. Like when it's a night game now, we can turn the lights off and have the red and stuff.
No shit. I'm so excited. That's going to be juicy. Oh, it's so sick. Adding those things to the
NFL is so big time. Because the first time I experienced it was in New Orleans in 2019 because it's a dome.
And like for New Orleans intro, it's like they turn the lights off and it's just like flashing lights or a spotlight on Cam Jordan running out.
I was like, this is a cool. It was a 12 o'clock game. And I felt like I was playing 8 p.m.
off. It was electric. The first time I
experienced that was 2019
Division game against the Ravens.
And that was like Lamar Jackson's MVP game.
It was a night game. So sick. And they
turned all the lights off and the lights flashing.
It was just awesome. A light show goes a long
way. That stuff
is, it's just so cool.
It just adds to the atmosphere.
So I'm excited now. The sun
isn't really set until
because our games are what? Like 505,
530? That's right. You are? Yeah, you're all.
We're out there. But like when he gets into
like November, December, it sets a little earlier, so we'll be able to do that stuff, and I cannot
wait. It's...
What's the song that comes on during that moment?
I have no idea. That's a good one. One thing we started doing last year, too, was they were asking
like, hey, do you want, like, a song to play when you score a touchdown? And I was like,
please play kryptonite by three doors down. But they didn't ask us that to like week 16,
and then I didn't score a touchdown in the last two games. I was very disappointed.
I was like, all I want to do is, man, I go crazy and will you...
still call me Superman.
If I'm alive and well
will you be there holding my hand.
And I keep you by my side with my superhuman.
Night.
Cryptonite.
Wouldn't that be so sick?
That would be electric.
You got any new TD celebrations in the works?
I have no idea.
So awesome.
So what?
49 as uniforms are up there.
Top three.
You could go left hand and replicate Taylor's first pitch.
done you could do that
done
oh
I'm gonna like
oh it hurt even more when you did the gesture
I'm gonna aim at the upright
I'm just gonna throw it and try not
I'm gonna try to hit somebody in the stance
yeah
yeah
no dude where was that
oh I was with um
that was a where were you moment
no I talked about your first pitch
I talked about your first pitch yesterday
um with Rich Eisen I think
of course he pulled it up
and
Rich is just always around.
No, but he's always in it.
No, what, though?
Just to have your back on it, there was a lady dressing all yellow from head to toe.
Very distracting.
Very distracting.
Very distracting.
It's a good point.
Yeah.
I mean, I have your back on it if I could have your back.
Yeah.
I think it was either, it was either him or it was part of my take talked about it, one of the other.
Yeah.
But click on the photo like six, five over to the right of him, bottom left.
That one.
See that lady in yellow?
Yeah.
That's a lot of yellow.
Yeah.
And then.
Right.
But then someone was like, it looks like a stoplight.
Because you're in red, she's in yellow and there's green seats.
Like you're just distracted, dude.
Distracted.
Yeah.
I don't know what to do.
No.
I needed that.
Thank you.
Yeah.
It's been a tough journey for me.
Yeah.
I've had to work through a lot of things.
I see your practice pitches.
They look like they're going.
He's putting in work.
We're putting in work.
But when you say going.
I know, we'll post it a video of you over.
throwing somebody. Yeah, I asked Will to take a video for the blessed account. He took the liberty
of putting that at himself first. It was tough. And that was a bad showing by me. It was a bad showing.
You know, it could have been worse. You know what was worse. No, it was worse. You didn't fall. That is true.
See? That is true. That I did not even think about. You could have fallen. You could have tripped over the
mound. Yeah. Here's the issue, George. And then Willers threw a strike. I'm the ultimate
optimist. When I do things, I believe everything's always going to go right. Yeah. And so I didn't
worry about it at all. And then when it happened, I was like,
That could happen.
Did you guys warm up at all?
Dude, we asked for gloves.
We wanted to throw them.
We started just doing this lazy, like, soft.
See that?
This is the dad combine.
Boom.
Oh, that was sick.
Why didn't you do that?
You loved you.
That made you feel good, huh?
That was great.
Yeah.
Look how far you've come.
Right.
Thank you.
You know it's a little different being in the backyard
comparing it to being in a big league stadium.
For me, for me at this point?
Bush.
That's a sick stadium
I went the year at Open
They called baseball heaven
I went the first year at Open
I went to Cardiff's Cubs
and it was amazing
sat in the bleachers with my dad
It was a fantastic time
Here's what I'll say
We gotta work on taking
Trying to envision
Trying to do the breath work
So when Nashville gets their MLB team
Are we all gonna throw out first pitches
Mm-hmm
The contest for the first pitch
That'd be so sick
You play ball grown up?
Do I quit baseball in like sixth grade
What's that send me through baseball?
Yeah right
He's probably on the first pitch right after this.
No, I've never thrown a first pitch of the Giants game.
They've asked me a couple of times.
It just hasn't worked.
Because they always asked me like June and July.
I'm just like, I'm not.
You know what's crazy too is?
So like my right labor is completely torn.
So like throwing a fool.
Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers.
And guess what?
We have some big news.
What's the news?
Huge news.
We created our own podcast called,
Hey, Jonas.
We invented a podcast?
Well, we didn't invent it.
We just contributed to us.
We're the first people to do podcast.
A pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there.
But this one's extra special.
So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?
I honestly don't remember.
I think it was on a call about what we should call it.
Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band.
Before Jonas Brothers was...
This is how you guys remember it going down?
Yes.
I have a very different memory of this.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,
where people could call in and say, hey Jonas,
and then I wrote down on my little notepad,
Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
But thanks for remembering that, guys.
Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

Ball like more than 20 yards has always hurt since high school. And then in the Super Bowl,
I got like a grade 3 AC spray and I chipped a bone in my shoulder. And now it doesn't hurt to
throw anymore. Oh, really? Yeah. It's like, you know, like those, you get hit in the head
and all of a super power. Now I can throw the ball like,
40 yards.
Make a positive.
Yeah.
Literally.
I was like,
huh,
oh, this is awesome.
Like, I can maybe throw a football now.
No pain.
I'm like,
this is sick.
And so now I need to play a little catch.
Because my brother-in-law,
he's a pitcher in South Korea.
And so he's always like,
trying to play catch.
Dude,
A,
my brother-in-law,
he had,
he had an 18 strikeout game like two weeks ago.
No shit.
That was sick.
And then he won,
he won,
he won, like,
NFL does like player in the month.
He won,
like, player of the month for the whole league.
So that was pretty sick.
Oh, dude.
So I'm pumped for him.
Shout out Cody Ponce.
Dude.
They're actually, they started their season off like one and nine.
And then all of a sudden they're like, I think they're second or third in the league.
No shit.
Yeah.
So they're playing really well.
He's playing really well.
He had 10 strikeouts like two days ago.
You need to get in the live with him, Taylor.
Sounds like it.
I mean, you guys have similar bodies.
I mean, he's like 6, 6, 6, 7.
Okay.
Is he a lefty?
No, he's a righty.
He throws.
Taylor might be a righty.
We're having a blast.
here on the show man I'm having it.
Buda Baker, this.
He might be a righty.
I mean, yeah, man, it's so mean.
It's my best friend.
That is my best friend.
Oh, your wife's not your best friend?
That's crazy.
Yeah, you write that.
That she is my best friend.
And it just keeps on coming.
And it just keeps on coming.
Hey, you know, I talk about something really cool.
Shout out of Taylor.
Her birthday's actually on Saturday, right?
Oh, wait.
29, right?
It just happened.
on Saturday.
That's right.
Taylor's birthday just happened.
And Mitch's birthday just happened.
Taylor's,
he's turning 29, right?
20.
Yeah.
Yep.
She hasn't at 30 yet.
She's still going.
That's what,
Kyle,
you just check.
Everyone's,
like,
Jus,
how old are you?
Like,
you've played in league,
like,
I think he's going on your,
he's going on your 13 or 14.
My God.
And he just tells everyone,
that's, oh, I'm 29.
He's definitely,
no, he's 34.
But he tells everybody that he's 29.
And the rickal is like,
how do you play for so long?
Did you go in the league
when you're like 16 he's like yeah no shit ever people believe him too but he tells everybody that
he's 29 it's hilarious so i started doing it too how does uh how does he feel you ever talked to him
about his body 13 years is crazy uh he's doing great dude i mean like he did all of otaes catching catching
catching the ball running on the sideline having a great time he loves it good for him yeah dude
and it's like yeah we just have a lot of fun together yeah see perfect do we think use check is a gold
jacket guy yeah dude he has this i think he has 10 pro bowls
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
He's locked.
He's locked.
It has to be 10 Pro Bowls.
And then, I mean, he, if like randomly, I think he had one first team all pro fullback and then they got rid of it for like six years, seven years.
And I think they just brought it back.
And he got first team all pro two years ago.
He was second team this past season.
But yeah, he has multiple first team all pros and 10 Pro Bowls or nine Pro Bowls.
Yeah, yeah.
That was a dumb question.
Yeah, he's pretty good at it.
Nine Pro Bowls.
Oh, well, that changes everything.
I think they're consecutive.
That 17 to 20.
Yeah, look at that.
16 through 24.
God, that's fucking great.
Every year playing with the Niners,
he's gone to the Pro Bowl.
I think it's funny how they put 16 and then they go 2017 and 24.
16 years on the Ravens.
That's probably what that is.
That does make sense.
Yeah, he's really good at it.
So another teammate of yours,
or ex-teamate of yours, Debo.
Did you see the recent video?
Did you not?
I commented on it.
Yeah, his reply on viral.
My player and viral.
Oh, what was the report?
play. This is how he always looks? No, well, they're like the video that that's like the worst time
for NFL is between at post draft until the season starts. Yeah. It's the worst because everyone's just
looking for dumb things. They're just, it was a reply. Um, and, um, that's why I said. So like this video,
this is on air. It's group install. Like you're literally, you installed this play an hour ago in your
meeting and now you're going over it just so guys don't mess it up when you get to the live team
periods. So this is. So he's running at like, like people are roasting for his route. He's running at like 50%.
He's actually going faster in this group install than I ever saw him go in our group installs.
And I know it's like this is like my routes in this period. Like I am in a legit jog. Like I am
hardly moving because like it's just we're like you might do a little cut like you're just warming up to
get to the team periods like that this is a learning period. And so people are just roasting like,
oh, he looks fat. He looks slow. It's like.
just let Debo get to the point where he put shoulder pads on because that's what he's there for.
Like I'm not a good seven on seven player.
Like I can run routes and stuff like that, but like you play football on pads.
Right.
So like all these people critiquing OTA stuff.
Like it is what it is.
Like who cares?
Bush League.
Stupid.
I like I can't.
I look like if you look at our OTAs play like when I, because I didn't do a lot this year because I just did everything up until team periods.
But like I look like a very average football player in the spring.
Like besides like I run good routes.
of football and stuff but like the run game how like I block with my shoulder pads in my helmet like
how are you supposed to do that in OTAs when you know shoulder pads on like I'm not going to change my
technique I'm not going to do that yeah but so like it's just it's a different ball game so just let
debo put pads on and he'll he'll have a great season were you bummed to see him go to Washington
I'm I'm happy for him that he went to Washington like guys need a fresh start sometimes and he
wanted a fresh start and so I'm very happy for him I'm gonna I'm sad that I you know I don't
have him on my team anymore because I just love to have him in around the lot of
locker room and stuff like that.
But I'm happy for him.
I'm happy he went to Washington because Adam Peters is there, our old assistant GM, and he's
the man.
And then also the, they're pretty good at football too.
Yeah.
Yeah, Jane Daniels is impressive.
Seems like he's going to be a very good football player for a long time.
Yeah, he's, he's very talented.
God, I hope.
I hope they just keep it going to this year.
Yeah.
Like, I hope they're like nasty with the zone green stuff that Jane Daniels does.
all the stuff that we did with Debo in the backfield, like, and you have scary Terry on the
outside. Yeah. And then like people just continue to forget about Zach Ertz had a very good
year last year. And you throw him in the middle, like they have a very talented offense.
And that Jane Yannos makes everybody better too. He's insane. Yeah. Washington got a,
he got Tunsel as well, yeah. Yeah, the guy I'm going to trade for like, I think a fourth and a fifth
round pick. Yeah. But Tunsel's nasty too. His feet are crazy. Hmm, look, odds in the NFL.
I can't bet on those.
No, you cannot.
I don't want to bet on those.
We can.
Oh my God, I'm back in Tennessee.
I can bet on the Stanley Cup now.
Yeah.
Who you're pulling for?
Florida.
Oh, this is fun.
So I love Connor McDavid.
I'll never forget when Phil Forsberg told me.
Phil doesn't like hype up anybody.
And like he's like,
oh yeah, he's a good player.
But they were playing when this was like probably
2019, 21, something like that when he was young.
And he was like, we're playing the Oriole.
He's like, you got to come watch McDavid.
I was like, really?
He was like, just come watch.
He played, like, it's like Tyree Kill on skates.
He's insane.
He's insane.
And so like, I just remember going to the game and I sat in the glass and like just
seen him foom, fom, you're like, holy cow, that dude's different.
Like, Phil's never talked about anyone like that.
So I'm a fan of him just because he's just so much fun to watch.
And so, like, I would love for Connor McDavid to get to win.
but at the same time a Canadian team hasn't won since 1993.
Just keep the streak alive.
That's what I'm saying.
Keep the streak alive.
And here's the thing about Connor McDavid is great player.
I'll never forgive him for what he did in the Four Nations tournament.
What do you do?
First off, America beat Canada.
Yeah.
Then in the championship, it goes to overtime and Connor McDavid scored the winning goal for Canada.
Yeah.
And you know, Taylorin's Canadian.
So I started getting really mouthy for those four to six days.
You did.
It was very personal.
Hey, it was fun for you guys.
We talked about that.
I remember that.
Now we're good.
It's kind of over for you guys.
Once America has her mindset and something we take over.
Yep.
That type of mentality.
And so between every period,
Taylor's actually in Canada at this time.
She's calling me.
Her whole family's there.
We're going back and forth.
I'm a one-man army.
And then that has to happen to me.
I'll never forgive him.
Well,
the fun thing.
He's dead to me.
I love for him to come on the show.
Yeah.
But he's dead.
I went to Four Nations this year.
I was up in Montreal.
How was it?
Phenomenal. So I was up there supporting team Sweden, Phil Forsberg.
That's crazy. Yeah, I know. Well, so I was up, well, the first game, I can't remember who they played in the first.
Was it the Netherlands? Yes. See, look at me. It's a very flattering photo of my wife and Phil's wife.
That was a tough one. We were out till, yeah, Montreal parties. We were out till like 4 a.m.
And then that game was like, hey, we're picking you up at 10 a.m. I was like, oh, no. Yeah, look at young Felix. That's my godson. He's an absolute stallion.
He's an absolute stallion. He's an absolute stallion. Just started walking.
I got him a set of plastic golf clubs and he uses them as weapons.
It's amazing. He just pulls them out and he just runs and hits.
It's so funny.
Boys are different, man.
Oh yeah, he's fantastic.
But so I was up there and then that night was USA Canada.
I didn't even think about it.
And I was like, dang, I really want to go to that.
And I ended up in the suite with the NHL commissioner who could not have been nicer and
Georgia St. Pierre could not have been cooler.
Oh, that's sick.
And then the third period, Trudeau was in my suite as well.
And that was like, I'm sitting there.
And like, I'm off to the side, like, trying to take as little space as I possibly can because it's me, Claire, and then one of Phil's buddies.
And just like trying to not be in the way.
Then all of a sudden, like, six security guys walk in with the wire in their ear.
I'm like, hmm, what's going on?
Turn on my show.
I'm like, oh, my God.
That's, yeah.
Oh, that's crazy.
I'm just going to sit over here and just not move.
Do you meet him?
Do you have any interaction?
Yeah, I talked to him.
He had his, like, 21-year-old son.
Could not have been nicer.
I will say the wildest thing that happened was because, like, the sweets, it,
They're kind of like the Nashville stadium
where it's like the stands are right in front of it, right?
So like you can interact with the crowd.
Except there's less of all.
I'm talking like they could reach up and touch me super like.
They could just reach back and climb to the suite.
That's how low it is.
And so they're like all these Canadians are yelling at me during the game.
And the third period starts.
And I had like five people throughout the entire third period
just yelling me to punch him in the face.
Yeah.
Except they use way worse words.
Probably felt awkward.
He had two security guys were sitting in front of me in between me and the fan.
And they're saying, punch that dude in the face,
Skiddle. I'm like, yeah, yeah, it's got to be so uncomfortable. I was, I'm doing like,
he's there with his 20 year old. He's a year shot. He's catching the, he's hearing these bullets.
He's just getting chirped the entire time. Just walking in and be like, hey, man, I'm sorry about this,
but they've been asking me. I'm so sorry, man. It's for, it's for the people. Yeah. Yeah, I was so
uncomfortable for that period of time. Um, but yeah, he could have been nicer. I still like,
his son's right there. Like, just leave the due law, man. It's a hockey game, man.
They turn in a hurry.
Oh my God.
They turn quick on Trudeau.
I took a, it was like, I took one photo with him, and it was, it was Trudeau, one of the guys
working the suite and me.
I was like, what an awkward, what a weird, weird photo.
Weird photo.
One of one photo.
Like, what is this?
Why do you want a photo with both of us at the same time?
Have you, um, I'm going to mess this up, but there's like a conspiracy theory about Trudeau
and who his father really is.
Fidel Castro.
Sick.
And this is all.
But apparently his mom went down to where, where's, Cuba?
Yeah.
Was in Cuba around the same time, nine, whatever, 10 months later, however you incubate a baby.
He was born.
And they have very similar qualities.
And so there was a conspiracy theory on the fact that Trudeau and Castro are related.
I love a good conspiracy theory.
Love diving into that a little bit.
Oh my gosh.
But yeah, man.
Can I come back on in like two weeks?
We just do a conspiracy theory podcast.
That would be outstanding.
Because let's just talk about pyramids.
We should get Jared Allen on for that.
Oh, that'd be so good.
Yeah, because Jared is all about the conspiracy.
I love Antarctica theories too.
That stuff is so good.
Yeah, the pyramid.
Dude.
The ice wall.
The edge of the earth?
Dude.
How about the stuff they just found underneath the pyramids?
The coils and stuff?
Yes.
Yeah, pull that up.
I think I saw a clip about it.
The craziest thing, so like some company developed this scan thing where they can
like look underground and they can see outlines of what is like the foundation.
And those things are like, how.
tall are they? Yeah, 4,000 feet into the ground. Think about how far those go down and there's
coils that go around and they don't know if it's like some type of like circuit, like a current
thing, like a metal pipe or if it's a walkway. They don't know what it is because they can't tell
by like the feed. But they're saying that's underneath the pyramid. It was crazy because that came
out and there's like this scientific article and then like all these like people debunked it.
And then like a couple like weeks later those people that debunked it, all those things were false.
And so like this is apparently an actual thing.
God.
Yeah, that, that's the image.
That is nuts.
Like that's underneath the pyramid.
Like, what, what is that?
So we,
the Egyptians probably didn't make that, huh?
Dude.
We got to probably assume at this point.
You can't tell me.
We got to assume extraterrestrials came in.
You can't tell me that like five million people built the pyramids.
How?
And like, if you look at like, they have like what?
Because didn't, uh, Rogan have somebody on recently too?
And he was talking about the, you know, the pyramids and everything else.
A little bit.
I love this conversation because we have none of us know what we're talking.
No.
This is the fun.
I like watching conspiracy theory stuff on TikTok all the time.
God.
But like the pyramid one,
like they took some of the,
some of the bricks or whatever you call them the blocks.
They use to build the pyramids that are like 10,000 tons or however much they are.
Right.
They came from a quarry like 250 miles away.
How do you get a 10,000 ton block,
250 miles and then move it?
Water.
Upstream on a river
Just like the Panama Canal
The Panama
Box in one area
Float it
It floats
Slowly let it out
But none of that
But none of that is
You can't see
Like none of that's there anymore
Aliens man
It's got to be aliens
It's got to be aliens
It's got to be
Some tech that we just
We don't have our hands on right now
Some type of gravity thing
They just lifted it up and moved it
Oh yeah we do yeah
Yeah we do have that technology
Yep
The majority of people don't know about it
Some Iron Man type shit
That'd be insane
Do you know there's a golf course next to the pyramids?
I did see a photo that.
I didn't know if it was real or not.
Is it,
if it's real,
sign me up.
I'll go play 36 holes there and not think twice about it.
I would love to just see those day.
Do they make transfusions in Egypt?
Yeah,
seeing the,
seeing the pyramids would be sick.
Yeah,
that would be a very cool.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah,
that's the,
is that real?
Can you imagine playing there?
That would be so sick.
It's a Jack Nicholas course.
Apparently,
that's what it's saying online.
What the here?
That, see,
like,
what's the altitude?
like there?
Can't be that high, right?
I don't know.
Dude,
there's nothing that boosts your ego
like playing golf at altitude
and you hit the ball
an extra 30 to 50 yards.
You're at sea level.
Yeah.
That's sea level.
But I played what,
like anytime I go to Nashville,
like,
I'm not Nashville,
Vegas,
is not like,
it's not like a couple thousand feet elevation?
I don't know if Vegas is.
Oh,
yeah.
Wow.
That's exactly a couple thousand feet of it.
That's pretty good by me.
But so like,
ball goes a little bit further.
I played up in Idaho on my biweek last year with Brock Purdy.
And literally any drive that I connected on,
and for some reason I played really well that day, yeah.
I was hitting like 320.
Perfect.
I was like, wow, I'm the best golfer alive.
It was fantastic.
Big golf guy.
I love golf.
I'm golfing the Lake Tahoe Celebrity tournament this year.
Nice.
I'm very excited.
My anxiety is through the roof.
Why?
I've no, I mean.
It's a big time tournament.
Yeah, you know, have you seen like the videos of like the cart girl goes, hey, let me see what you got.
And it's got the stadium noise.
I mean, I said, like football and the screen shaking.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's me.
Yeah, that's us golfing up there.
It was like 30 degrees and snowing.
I beat him by two, I beat him by two strokes.
Got to be a great feeling.
Yeah, I love beating Brockett golf.
Do you know your partner yet?
I think they like the first round I get paired with juice because they pair somebody.
And then after that, they parry it was somewhat similar.
scores you. So I have no idea who will be after that. But I'm pumped. I'm bringing a caddy
from the golf clip of this one. Yeah. Max Stadium Bulls. Like that is, I don't golf in front of
people very often. And I will say my worst golf shot of the day is always the first T-box.
It always is. Yeah. But like, this is my thing. When you go to a celebrity golf tournament and people
like stand around, what are you doing? No one out here is a professional besides like Steph Curry.
Right. He's a good golfer. But like, don't stand in.
Anywhere where I can hit you, please.
Yeah.
Please stand behind.
When is that tournament?
July 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, I think.
Man.
Every time I see it happen to, I'm like, we've got to be out there.
You guys should figure out how to go out there.
Because part of my take, they go out every year and they just line up.
They do like 15 interviews out there.
Do they really?
Yeah.
It's sick because you have so many people out there.
There's a lot of heavy hitters out there.
Edgewood?
Yeah, just looking at it.
It's like teasing.
Yeah.
What we've realized is we do our vacations in July.
That's when we like go, hey, we'll take.
we're taking some time.
As you should.
We've realized that is not the time to do that.
No.
Yeah.
It's June or it's August.
Yeah.
July is just.
Just go somewhere nice in March.
You know, you should do.
You should go to Cabo in February and watch the whales jump out of the water.
Cabo is.
We talking to Orcas?
No, not Orcas.
No, we're talking to Orcas?
Count me out.
No, dude, it's...
We talk in Orcas?
No.
No, we're not.
No, do they...
No, not Orcas.
That's literally a Will's dream right there.
No, but, like...
Like, February is like their mating season or like where they travel through Cabo and they literally just, you'll be out on a boat.
Like you can just sit your hotel, look at the ocean and you'll see 15 whales jumping out of the water.
It's insane.
Isn't that beautiful?
Yeah.
It is.
I got some.
That's where our podcast should be.
Just a whale watcher podcast.
No, we should be in Cabo.
Yeah, dude.
We should just post up there.
The golf courses, the golf courses in Cabo are just exquisite.
Like there's some course I play at where like you, the fairways are just as low as the grain.
you can put from like 150 yards out,
it's exhilarating.
It's so much fun.
I love hearing your passion about golf.
No, that's not going to happen.
Why not?
It's so much fun.
I would be down.
It's just like, it's fun in the time and it's...
Get you out of the house.
No, no.
I mean, I get out of the house.
I mean, you can play one around a week.
Right.
The problem is...
You stink?
My back.
That's fine.
Just don't swing hard.
I don't think you're understanding.
How bad is your back?
It's bad.
It's bad.
It's not good.
Like what?
Do you feel comfortable sharing on the bus?
I've shared it plenty of times.
I don't.
I've heard it.
What's up?
Yeah.
It's just, it's in hell.
Like my L4, L5, like all the discs between that and my S-I joint, they're starting to shorten.
Sure.
So structurally, I'm a little off.
So I need to be.
Wallow does that I'm going to be.
Full accountability.
I need to be disciplined with all of my daily exercises on staying on top of my back.
Because until I do, I will continue to do something where I am,
trying to be explosive and then I will be in hell for like the next week.
I got two things for you.
My stem cell clinic just opened up in a back and spine one where they've like life changing
things.
I was talking to my guy down there because literally.
Do you know what it's called?
It's called the Stim Cell Institute.
But the cool thing is so they're in Panama, right, which is it's not the easiest place
to get to from Nashville.
But their clinic they just opened up, I'm pretty sure is in the Bahamas.
So very easy to get to from here.
Okay.
That's their back and spine one.
and I have one of my,
like a friend I have in California,
he has a son who's in the Navy
who has like some back problems
and he's going to send him down there
to go see this back specialist.
And then I have a couple hockey buddies
who have like really bad back stuff
and they're,
I'm just,
I'm connecting them right now to go down there.
You should take a peek at that
because it's insane.
And then,
um,
have I ever talked about a Goscue?
It's like,
um,
body posture workouts,
basically.
Like it just aligns your body.
So like,
you're strong.
structurally sound like, hey, your femur's rotated.
Right.
And that's why your left back is hurt.
And they give you workouts to re-rotate your femur without a chiro.
It's like chiropractic work without a chiropractor.
Like it adjusts your whole body.
And yeah, that's a goskew.
I do that almost daily.
I love it.
But they have a thing.
So that thing.
That thing.
The tower.
It pulls your leg out and it loosens.
It like stretches your whole body out.
And it like realigns your spine and your hips.
I do that three days a week.
Okay.
That one.
I have like four of them at my house if you want to borrow one.
I would love to.
It only takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on how long you want to do it.
I love it.
I highly suggest that one.
That one is really good.
Yeah.
If you would have told me about your back probably,
they would have brought it with me this morning.
Yeah.
You know,
I don't want to put all my bag on top of you.
Maybe you need like a chair that's better for your back.
That would be helpful.
How do you guys not have like a chair sponsor yet?
Like, can you imagine like lazy boy sponsored the bus?
Yeah, that would be nice.
They would do.
Just lazy boys.
Make custom ones.
Are these the ones we bought last year?
These are the Amazon ones.
And then the nice ones.
Yeah, the nice ones are for the locker room.
Yeah, for the locker room.
Also don't have great lower back support.
Hmm, that's tough.
That one feels much better, though.
Speaking of bad other ones.
Bad back support.
When you guys were playing, how bad were your guys' meeting room chairs?
Like when you sat and watched film?
I never noticed it.
Oh, dude.
I bought gaming chairs for my whole room because I just couldn't do it.
Nice.
That's a hell of a gift.
That is a great gift.
That's a great gift.
So we have like the nice Excel gaming chairs with nice lumbar support.
I couldn't do it.
I spent like four years in it.
I was like,
I'm just in pain before training camp practices.
I can't do it.
Is that a truck?
Is that a gift from Purdy?
Say again?
The truck you drove in today?
No, he didn't get me in a car.
He didn't?
But I know he got that same type of vehicle for his offensive line.
He got all the offensive line,
Sequoia.
He got five sequoias and five tundras for the boys.
They all got,
I think the best part.
about that too is like everyone's arguing online like oh my god he spent his whole contract on these no they got
free leases i think everyone gets a two to three year lease for a toyota car yeah it's a dub yeah well that was like
i was like i was like get get one for your tied in that blocks right and he was like well how about you
just asked trant williams for his and i was like how about you asked trint williams for it because it's your gift
and i was like how many times you think trit williams is going to drive that car you just got paid though
you know he should just buy me a toyota what do you get two fifty
something. Yeah, 53 a year
for five, I think. That's amazing.
Just a quick, round of applause.
Shout out.
And he bought a house in Nashville, so he's a neighbor.
Is he out by you?
He's like between me and Franklin.
Okay.
He's got, he's as a river on his property and like two fully stocked ponds.
God.
He also, the house that he got to, not to like air all your stuff, Brock, but I'm going to.
He bought, they got it from like a former, I don't know if it was like,
a rock star or a country music artist, but he built like a 25,000 square foot barn to store his tour buses in.
25,000?
Yes, it's huge.
It's got bed.
It's got, it's got bedrooms in it.
It's got a full basketball court in it.
It's insane.
So like he's going to, I think they're going to renovate his house and then he's just going to live in the barn.
Good for him.
I'm in your combo, by the way right now.
Dude, you're going to like that.
Two nicotine's two.
What are these full?
NZEs.
NZE.
The lemon cherry?
Yeah, they're good for your brain.
fire. I'll take one.
The NZ is, for those you that are listening, you hear the can popping.
NZ is a nicotine alternative.
There's no nicotine in it.
Brought for us to try and they are delicious, actually.
Just a consumer.
No free shout out.
What are the, can you read the ingredients on the front?
Sherman is asking for one on the opposite side of the bus right now.
Yeah, what, read the ingredients on the front underneath the word says focus.
Alpha GPC.
Mm.
Mm.
Sounds good.
L tyrosine.
Mm.
Sounds good.
L.
Thionin.
Sounds good.
15 count.
Is 15.
them. That's an ingredient.
That's an ingredient. They do taste really good though.
You want one? Oh, yeah. I'll tell one. They're delicious.
What were the, obviously you guys had a bunch of injuries last year. Yeah, sure.
What were the vibes of the squad throughout the year? Like, I'm sure you guys stayed optimistic.
You guys, businesses, business is done. Let's get back to work. Let's remain positive.
You guys got a lot of great leadership.
I know going into last year, like, we would talk about it too. It's kind of like, you got a lot of your core guys that are back.
Yep. And you guys are an older team in the sense of, you.
you guys have all played with each other very long time.
For sure.
So it felt like last year was a year.
It's like if they're going to do it this year, that year is going to be the year
because guys, you know, contracts in the way Devo's gone.
And we had to pay Purdy.
Right, you had to pay Purdy.
Like you knew that was coming.
So to have the year that you guys had, what were the vibes like, like during throughout
the entire season?
Disappointing.
I would say like we kept the like, everyone was still in like good spirits as, you know,
as much you can be because like you're all of our aspirations or win a Super Bowl, right?
Especially when you come off losing one.
It's like, ah, you know, all I want to do is we want to do is we want to do.
we want to get back then we want to win it and um like they're just when you lose your office of
MVP Christian McCaffrey yeah that suck like when he came back for those three games though I could
not have been more excited I was like thank goodness I'm so pumped for this so like he didn't play
um and dude he was like he was like he found his rhythm that game they got he had like he had like
50 yards on four carries and then he gets hurt which that's that long when he had too like I had like
a anytime TD going on oh gosh I'm
I'm so sorry for you.
That affected your whole year.
But like, so it was tough.
It's like when he got hurt.
So we lose him and then like both to death with injuries.
I missed two games.
I yuk got hurt.
Debo is kind of hurt on and off.
Purdy missed two games.
It was just like and then Hargrave,
I started detackle,
tears his tricep in week two,
week three.
So then we lose him.
Then another detackle got hurt.
So just like it was one of those years where like you have so many new guys
in the building like week four yeah nothing's going right no and it's just like even defensively like
all the cats like the roster on paper yeah looked really yeah drae greenlaw didn't play at all yeah yeah
huffanga came back and then like hurt his wrist he missed like four weeks immediately it was just like
everybody just was just it was like just weird little injuries all the time it was greenlaw the one
that walked off the field like he was he was he was supposed to go back in the game and then not did not no no
no no um Campbell that was Devonre campbell davidre campbell was playing for greenlock because he tore
was Achilles in the Super Bowl.
Yep.
And Greenlaw was coming back
and he got mad and walked off.
Yes, that's what happened.
Quint during the game.
How are we handling that in the locker room?
Because the consensus on the buses,
the 49ers probably have the best locker room.
As far as vibes,
leadership, the whole thing.
Our culture is awesome.
You have a great culture.
So I assume that was handled.
Yeah, I'm pretty,
security escorted him off the property
and said, don't come back.
Yeah, because he got,
that's how you handled it in culture.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Well, yeah.
Is there any parting words?
No.
you were saying anybody so like i had no idea until i saw him walking off the field and apparently there's
like a whole bunch of stuff like john lynch came out of the suite and it was like yelling at him
really yeah were you guys as were you guys surprised that that went down uh because you're kind of like
being in the locker to that extent yes like for that to happen yes i was surprised hey there's mike
anderson our head of security he's the man love mike he uh he's our head of security for tidin you
every single year he's the man um but um um but um
Yeah, that was a wild experience, but like Kyle and John handled it and no one saw him again.
It's pretty wild.
I just don't know if, uh...
Not a good move.
No.
Not a good career move.
If you're upset about a situation, you wait to the game's over, you go talk to the GM,
I'm not happy.
Trade me or cut me.
Yeah.
But to do that, you're just showing 31 other teams.
Yeah, I think that...
You're about you.
Yeah, you're probably not getting another shot.
Right.
I don't know if anyone else is going to sign him.
The way he would post and stuff afterwards, too, it almost seemed like, I don't know if it's true actually in his mind, but he kind of postures like that too.
Like he doesn't need it. It's all individual. It's all business.
I know from the conversation. I used to like sauna with him all the time. And I had plenty of good conversation with him throughout the.
He was a good middle linebacker. He was first team all pro. Yes. He was a dog at Green Bay.
He was a dog Green Bay. He was good in Atlanta.
Yeah, he was a cat that came out, got drafted out of Minnesota.
Yeah. He was a beast, dude.
but that was a wild
unraveling
that was a
just for like
for the year that we were having
and that happens
two years like
yeah
and then like in that game
too Drake Green
and I got hurt again
and like he was gonna miss
the rest of the season anyways
and so we're all just like
what is this season
right
and he would just stuck around
for a few plays
he would have been like
oh okay yeah back in
yeah it was insane
at what mama do you guys know
you guys are pretty much out of it
um
when we we draw back to back
conference games. We lost to
we lost to the Rams in L.A.
Like we, I think I didn't play in that game. I had a hammy.
So me and Dioble didn't play in that game. But like we played good enough to win.
Didn't make a couple of plays down the stretch lost.
And then the next week we lost at home to the Cardinals.
And after that one, I was like,
this is going to be a, like, we're going to have to.
It's a pretty year. This is going to be a gritty year for us to have to figure this one out.
Yeah, it's no longer in your hands anymore.
No, there's, yeah.
We lost to the.
Rams, we lost the Cardinals, and the Chiefs came in, beat the shit out of us.
And then we go to Tampa.
That was Christian's first game back.
Things were looking good.
And then we lost the Seahawks at home.
Yeah, Seahawks, Packers, Bills, not fun.
Yeah, that was a three-game stretch of it.
Nice bounce back against the Bears.
I had a great game.
I had, like, 100 50 yards in the first half.
It was sick.
Yeah, that was a tough one.
The Rams game was brutal.
Low-scoring games like that, too, just suck.
Well, it was a rate.
It's so crazy.
It rains in California.
in December, like on and off.
But it's like twice a week.
And then it just happens to downpour on that one Thursday night game or wherever it was,
Sunday night game.
I was Thursday night.
That was a tough one.
Go to Miami.
Not good.
The Lions game was really fun.
I got a thousand yards in that game.
I had a ton of fun.
They played man coverage the whole game.
I was cooking.
And then the last game of the year, like, dude, last game of the season, we had,
we had two guys rotating in at left tackle because,
No, what was it? It was in the Dolphins game.
We lost our backup left tackle because Trent Williams was out.
We lost Jalen Moore, who just signed with the Chiefs.
And then we lost our starting left guard, Aaron Banks,
and that Miami Dolphins game.
So we had just new guys playing that game.
And so then the last two games of the year,
the last two games of the year,
we had like, I think it was three starting office of linemen
and no one starting wide receiver
and our third and fourth ring running back.
It was, that was a tough way to,
the season.
When you get to December and you're just like, you know you're pretty much out of it or you
are out of it.
It is tough to rally the troops.
It is tough to rally the troops.
You see the older guys and you're just like, man, they don't give a fuck.
Yeah.
And then I was, I mean, I only played like 15 snaps in the last game in the season because I was like, look, what do you want for me at this point?
Like, I love football, but I also want to continue to play at a high level for a long time.
And I was like, we had a plan and we were like, hey, you're going to play a half.
And I'm like, all right, I'll play a half.
sounds great.
And then like third play of the game, our rookie running back gets rolled up on and just
start screaming like he broke his leg.
And I looked at him.
I was like, I looked at the side and I was like, get me off of this fucking field.
Like, holy cow.
Are you bringing that conversation to them or are they coming to you?
I mean, like, I think I just went to talk to Kyle about it because he has an open door
policy.
And we just talked about it for a little bit.
He was like, I don't want you to play the whole game.
He's like, I get where we are.
It is what it is.
Like, just go out there, have a good week of practice with the boys.
Like try to keep spirit.
it's up and then uh because that was josh dob's first game too so you know was excited to see what
he would do and it was just it was a tough one and then all the fun thing about that game the last game
of the year would have been juan jennings was going for a thousand yards for the first time in his
career and he got ejected like he was like 30 yards away and he had to play like because
joan's a blocker like you can pull up any highlight that dude yeah he puts dudes he is a he is an
he's an asshole yeah he was 25 yards away he got ejected in like the second quarter
Yeah, and our whole game plan was just feed Juan to break a thousand.
Really?
Those are really fun game plans to be a part of.
Yeah.
Like everyone wanted Juan to break a thousand.
What happened for him to get ejected?
So he blocked the dude on a run.
I don't know if there's a passer run, but he's blocking a dude and like pancakes him.
And then the dude gets up and they like start fighting.
So they both get 15 yard penalties.
And like he didn't throw a punch once.
None.
Like he gets a jump by like three Cardinals players.
And so there's two penalties offsetting.
And then Larry, the next player, it's an outside zone.
And he's blocking.
And like one of the Cardinals DBs is like,
yelling at him and like Larry just grabs him and throws him down and so then they're doing that and
Jawan gets ejected but he never got fine for it because the NFL review of the film and like he did
nothing wrong he shouldn't have been ejected. Damn. So he missed out on a thousand yards season just for
no reason. That does suck. When you're uh oh it is the best part about this play was a ref was
running over to break it up and pop this hammy no shit is right in front of me and I'm like jogging
because like I'm going over and he's in front of me and he just grabbed his hamming goes down.
I'm like, oh, sir, sir, let me.
Are you okay?
Sir, are you okay?
He goes like, oh, no, I'm not.
I'm like, oh, no, dude, let me.
So I didn't even get over there.
I was, I was picking up a ref and helping him off the sideline.
God, damn, God, God, yeah.
Rep going down.
Yeah, everything's not going your way.
Yeah, ref pulls his hammy, running back down,
then our starting right tab gets a high ankle spraying
in like the half of the second quarter.
You're just seeing a lot of bad luck.
Yeah, almost like, dude.
What we're doing here?
Because like Bosa shut it down, Debo shut it down.
I was just like, get me out, get me off of this field, please.
Yeah, that was me.
That was literally me.
I was like, oh, no, man, this place is so scary right now.
When you're in the, when you're in the locker room and like the core leadership that you guys have, when you're losing, you're starting to get stress from all angles.
The locker is getting stress.
Yeah, it's like Brable.
All that stuff.
Brable talks about guys getting clicks.
You got this loser mentality that's starting.
to go on like what are you learning about your team in the roster like because you end up seeing
guys more true colors like when they're out of it guys are like planning months in advance
with their off season looks like trying to get out of it what do you learning about whale season
yeah yeah yeah yeah are you like seeing in your mind you know probably for the first time in a long
time being in that spot where you're like we need to get guys like this we got to clean up the
locker room a little bit i will say that we didn't really experience that much last year we're
pretty fortunate like like we've developed a pretty awesome culture in my opinion um
And like guys love being there, guys love playing football.
And like also when you have guys like me, Fred, Bosa, even like McCaffrey still around every single day, like still being him, juice, Trent Williams.
Like the core group like we're all this.
Hey, look, I know it's not the other we want.
But one like one story was I think it was my first or second year.
We had a special team's coordinator Richard Hightower.
I think he's with the Bears right now.
But he was like, because we stunk my first two years.
Yeah.
And he was like, you guys, you're not playing like at this point.
Like if you're on a one year deal, you're not playing for the Niners at this point.
You're playing for your own career.
So like why not go out there and play like go have the three best special teams games of your life or the best games of your life so that someone will sign you next year?
And so if you look at it like that, like guys are still playing really hard and stuff like that.
It's just like you have so many new guys in the building who aren't like weren't a part of the culture in the off season in training camp throughout the beginning of the season.
So it's just the vibes are still like good.
it's just
I mean just losing sucks in general
so like there's just only so much you can do
but I was like we didn't really have anybody
that was no besides Devondry Campbell
that was like ready to quit on the team
everyone else was going out there every single day
practicing hard doing good stuff
and like too like coaches didn't quit at all
like Kyle still come up with fun game plans
and stuff like that
just it's hard when you don't
where you're missing
I mean we had like four total starters on
yeah Purdy didn't play in the last game
like we had like four total starters
starting the last game
Yeah.
It was wild.
Yeah.
Are you nervous at all going into that offseason?
Like maybe they, the front office might just go, hey, we need to blow this thing up and start
regathering things?
Or do you have a pretty good with your relationship?
I mean, you're talking about going to the president and changing the lighting system.
To Nebraska.
You're going to the head coach's office being like, hey, listen, I, you know, should I really be out
there?
Like, those are very unusual conversations to have.
They are.
But, I mean, like, shoot, man.
I've been, me and Shane and had were rookies together with the minor.
So I was his first head coaching job
It was John Lynch's first GM job
So like I don't know
We've been on the same page for a long time
And the older I've gotten
The more I've played
Like the more comfortable
I feel talking to them about certain things
Um
The um
I don't know man
Just just continually
Just having those open conversation
Is I think it's healthy for a team
And I've never like once ever gone into Kyle's office
Like that uncomfortable
Like no matter like
I mean he at one time I was like
2021 he got on my ass
Because I was like
He didn't like the like a couple practice reps that I had
when we were doing a joint practice.
And then he roasted me for it in a team meeting,
which is fine, and I'm okay with that.
But it's never affected our relationship.
He's a head coach.
Like, I want him to coach me as hard as possible.
Yeah.
So, like, I mean, he's also a guy like,
I go to Kabul with him almost once a year
and we golf and, you know, drink.
And then during the season, we grind, which is pretty fun.
That is a really cool relationship.
Yeah, look, there's us with his son Carter.
It's crazy.
Now, Carter is, I think he's a freshman or sophomore in high school.
And he's, he's like just, like, he's getting,
he's getting yoked a little bit.
Yeah, he's getting man muscles.
Oh, dude, I think he has to drink like five protein shakes a day and just works out.
He does like two a days.
He's like just lives in the gym.
I absolutely love it.
Carter's the man.
And Mandy, his wife is one of my favorite people.
And it crazy seeing guys like basically growing, like watching their kids grow up.
Oh my God.
That's crazy.
They're all so young right there.
The best is like if you look at my, one of my favorite things is like a coach who's
been there for a long time.
If you look at them from their first year to their last year.
Like remember like the like the pre and post.
photos of like Obama when he got in an office.
The stress.
Yeah. Yeah.
The stress that takes over.
Yeah.
Like, look at them there.
And then if you look at this year, like, it's just a totally different person.
Oh, my God.
He's wearing it in that photo.
That's 2019.
Like, that's only three years into his job.
Oh, my God.
It's so funny.
Dude, that tree is crazy.
That's the Redskins tree, right?
Yeah, the Redskins tree is insane.
Yeah.
Yeah, a different person.
A little gray.
Dude, he's rocking a mustache right now, too.
Good for him.
And he has the hair coming out the back too.
He's going.
Is he going?
Oh, I think he's in, yeah, he does a good job.
I love it.
I'm like, please keep the stash.
Now, that's Nick Sorensen.
Mustaches tend to change cultures.
Mike Rable, when he did it in 2019,
changed the culture.
Arthur Smith also had one.
All right, look at that stash.
He wore that.
That was at McCaffrey's wedding.
That is, that's a mob boss right there.
That's hot.
That is a guy that.
When I saw him, I was like, yes.
You walk in and you finish every sentence was sir.
I was like, let's fuck.
Can go, Kyle.
You look awesome.
He's got to keep that.
You got to petition that with the team.
Like, get everybody on the team to sign off on that.
I got in trouble for this photo.
Paparazzi got me holding a Corona can, not Bud Light.
Oh, that is.
They didn't have any Bud Light.
But look at my branding on it, though.
Look how I'm holding it.
I'm so good.
You're a pro.
I'm a pro.
That is a pro move.
Completely unintentional.
Did Bud Light call?
No, my marketing guy called me.
He was like, don't do that.
I'm like, all right.
So then I literally had a hotel guy went and he bought me like,
five 24 packs of Bud Light and I just carried
Bud Light around with me the entire wedding and we went through all of them
in like two hours. It was pretty fun. That's awesome. Me and Greg Olson did a lot of those.
Beer? Dude, how cool is it being a Bud Light athlete? It's one of my favorite things.
It's the greatest. It's they take amazing care of you. I wish they would sell those
kiddle lights. That'd be so fun. They got, but I got in trouble for that with the NFL.
Because they did me, Travis and Greg.
Yeah, yeah, I remember that year going into your guys' little, the gift suite.
Do I feel like Tideon you just gets better and better every year?
It sounds like you're in it now?
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure there's, there's a lot of variables.
A lot of people do a lot of great work around Tidon.
You bring in the content creation, bringing it outside people to interact.
But it seems like that there's more, you're adding more events and stuff and cool elements
for people to come to Nashville.
It may be a little bit more less on the field.
We are in like, that's one that we talked about this year, because we usually
do two field days with two like film session stuff and I would say 50 to 75% of the guys that
show up every year have been there for at least three or four years which kudos to look at
Ryan Fitzpatrick I think he's actually coming to the Tuesday one it's like his wife it's their
anniversary and he's still going to come shout out to him what a legend shout out of Ryan Fitzpatrick
thanks for coming on the show next week too buddy yeah but um but like we we just try to change it up a
little bit um as much we can so like this year on Wednesday instead doing a football
we're doing a golf outing, like a 4 v.
Scramble tournament, which that'll be really fun.
That would be fun.
I'm looking forward to it.
We just tried, like, what are guys into, trying to just have the most fun possible.
But I am excited, like I said, wait, we have Jeremy Shockey coming.
Oh, look, we have a website.
Good job, Rubicon.
You got the boy, you got the boys helping host a concert.
Yeah, no, I was really pumped about that.
You guys are going to have a great time.
Have you seen the lineup?
It's insane.
I'm sure.
I'm sure it's coming across our desk.
I don't think I can share it because it's like it's supposed to be secret.
Because they can think
Which day is the concert, Tuesday?
Tuesday night.
This comes out on Tuesday.
This will be Tuesday when people are listening.
Oh, okay.
Maybe you could save the lineup.
Yeah, sure.
At this point.
Hopefully I don't get yelled at, but it is what it is.
Let's see.
What do we got?
Nope, not that one.
All right.
So we got my boys,
Waylon Stone.
I played football at Iowa with Andrew Stone.
They're like a duo.
Whiskey and a wine glass.
I don't know if you've ever heard that song.
Tucker Bethard sang it at one point.
but they wrote it.
Then Tucker Bethard is performing for the first time,
which I'm excited about CJ.
Great Trayette.
Yep,
really excited about that.
My guy, Kid Quill, who's coming in,
who's like rap and pop is what I would say.
He's an Indiana kid too.
I love him.
He's got awesome music.
He comes to Kittle Fest every year,
just the homie of all homies.
Then we got Sophia Scott,
Graham Barham, who sings Oil Money.
Remember that video that came out with the girl from,
no, that's Lainie Wilson, isn't it?
Well, that's Sophia Scott.
Yeah, so she sings for us.
Graham Barrum.
I Larry found his music on TikTok, and I just d-end him.
And he was like, dude, I'm there.
Sounds great.
He's also coming to Kittlefest.
Shout out Graham.
Your DM game.
It just blows me away.
Yeah.
No, so I'm excited about him.
He's got some fun music.
We got Nico Moon.
That'll be fun.
Ernest is coming.
Love her.
We got Jordan Davis.
We got Chase, and then we got Kane Brown.
Line up.
That's a good lineup.
That's a good lineup.
That's a good lineup.
I love Jordan Davis.
I know.
I need Jordan Davis to come to Kittlefest.
He said he would, but haven't had confirmation.
That'd be huge.
Jelly Roll is,
unfortunately,
he's got like a show in Utah on Tuesday.
He's like,
is it Monday or Wednesday?
Because I can be there.
I'm like,
no.
Of course,
you have a show on a Tuesday.
Right.
Dang it.
But he'll be at Kittlefest, right?
I think he can't go to either this year,
which I'm really sad about.
He told me that I have it on video where he said,
um,
what's,
he's like,
I have a 10-year residency at Kittlefest.
Fest. And I said, sign it. He's locked in. He has to be here every year for 10 years.
He missed last year. And I don't think he'll be there this year. So he's came one time.
No, he went. He's on twice. He's on a two kittle fest. Because I remember that first time he's like,
hey, will, you think you think George would let me come to Kittlefest and maybe play a couple
songs? I was like, I'm pretty sure you could do whatever you want. Yeah. Well, no, it's great.
The best, like, he showed up. He was like, do you have any, uh, tequila? I'm like, I do and just
gave him the bottle. He's like, nice. Do you like care if I, like, care if I, like,
I smoke at all. I'm like, no. He's like, where do you want me to go? I was like, I don't know.
You're outside. I don't care. Do you, man? He's like, oh, I love this place. There's Uncle
Laser ripping the harmonica. That was... What a unique individual.
One of the funniest things about that. He went as he, remember when he did it?
Sets me up like every other month. He opened. That's one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
That was the perfect crowd because it was the worst crowd for him.
Yeah, yeah. My mom was just beside herself. And like, I had a bunch of my
neighbors there who are like just older people and they're just like what was with that uh uncle guy
yeah yeah oh he's really nice blow your mother's back out yeah dude he was he was talking about
but does he rip a harmonica or he was a harmonica oh my gosh talking about you post you like harmonica
and just starts playing the harmonica all right yeah okay i was like dude i'm in the back of there
just laughing looking at older people yeah it's like no idea was gone on it's happening last year was
sick i didn't have jelly roll but uh john party showed up and he was in
a he had his huge cowboy hat on a cut off a t-shirt with like a bald eagle on it because it was a
fourth of july party american flags from trunks and flip-flops and he i was like dude you just put like
one or two songs he was up there for like 25 minutes no shit oh he could not be cool and then like
larry his last song hit and then we had fireworks go off do i actually my one thing i'm
really pumped out this year for kittle fest is that i've really good friends uh with a former
green beret his name is ignacio
and they are going to have a guy jump out of a helicopter
holding an American flag for Kittlefest to kick it off.
That is.
That's fucking incredible.
Yeah, I'm really excited about that one.
Yeah, every year.
It's not very expensive either.
Really?
Yeah, it's like four grand.
Turns out best four grand.
Pretty cheap.
And the four grand goes to the military.
So it's like, it goes to these guys.
Support the troops.
Support the troops.
No doubt.
That was club Kittle.
We might have to get that for the dad combat.
Hey, can you do me a favor?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's on the bus.
Can you do me a favor?
Rob Tunyon.
Yeah.
Shut the fuck up.
So that was, yes, we had like club signs.
Shout out Fabiano down in Broadway.
He hooks us up every single year.
That year, too, we hired six bottle service girls from Broadway.
Really?
Yeah.
Fantastic.
He said fantastic.

Yeah,
it's tough for you guys.
But I'll have golf
simulators up there for like a longest drive
close to the pin,
prizes and stuff for guys.
We're actually,
we're building like,
we're building like a men's locker room.
It's like an old school locker room.
Where you go in it's like a lounge.
We'll have one for guys and we'll have one for girls.
Yeah,
I'm pretty excited about it.
You can save costs,
but just doing an all gender locker room.
Well,
it's open.
It's open to both.
Gotcha.
It's just for the vibes.
All right.
Yeah.
It's just for the,
it's cost effective, right?
Who is calling me?
That's my wife.
I'm not going to answer this one, sir.
Oh, you got to go.
I got to get the flight.
Oh, yeah.
It's quarter after 11.
We talked for like an hour and a half.
We do, we do it.
We do it.
We do have, we do it.
We do it.
We do have, we do it.
We do it.
You know how people would do anything
for an ice cold bud light.
Oh, I would.
Anything.
What would George Kittle do anything for?
No family.
Wait, wait, wait.
Give me an example.
Like you would.
Diego Bobby said he'd bite an ear off for a national championship
Well like you do anything to be on that new show
Space Marine show
Oh
Hmm
What would I do for an ice cold bubble
What is a personal ambition that you would do anything for
Yep
What is something that you would do anything for?
Oh like win a Super Bowl
Something like that
Yeah
I don't know if I would cut my dick off
That was going to be a follow up
So I'm so glad you answered that
I don't know if I would cut my dick off
Um
Would you to win a Super Bowl
that's a good question
I have an injury to go on IR starting in week one
and you're on IR the whole year and you still win
still win
that's a great question
that really is a brutal question
that really is a brutal question
can that be like year 14
then yes if it's that late in my career
this year no I don't think I would do it
I love playing football
I love playing football too much
God that would suck
what about injury
IR week 16
and I come back
I could play all the playoffs and win?
No, no.
You're out all playoffs.
Wait, so.
But you played a whole year to know like you, because it's like the struggle you would have.
I would do that.
I would trade that.
I would trade that.
Like, I can still like do you, you still get your individual accolades.
Yeah.
And do that.
I would.
George's playing a couple of Super Bowls.
Yeah.
Grunk did that and he won.
Yeah.
Remember that?
He was like, I've won three and a half Super Bowls now.
Yeah.
That was one of the funniest things ever.
Yeah, I would do that in a heartbeat.
I wouldn't even think twice about that one.
Let's see.
I like that one.
I'd go on IR in week 16 for the boys.
Shoot.
I had some funny ones I just don't want to really say on the pod
because I'd probably get in trouble.
I'll tell you that off camera.
All right.
Would you bite on an ear off?
To do what?
To win a Super Bowl?
Would I bite an ear off?
Yeah.
Yeah, I think I would too.
No question.
Yeah, I don't think that's...
Yeah, I feel like that's not too dramatic.
Yeah, it's not happening to me.
Would you win the Super Bowl
and then you have to cut off your left hand?
No.
No.
Cut off your left pinky?
Yes.
Yes.
Yeah, I think I would too.
Would you win a Super Bowl, but then you have to go to a prison for a year?
Is it a good prison or like bad, bad?
Let's call it like a media.
Yes.
Yeah.
Celebrity prison.
Celebrity?
No, no, not like a white collar.
Yeah, yeah.
Even a rough one.
They got to be sports fans.
Boys, I just won the Super Bowl.
And that's tradeoff was for me to go to prison.
Cool, grab your ankles.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, I got to go.
Like, hey, yeah, yeah, grab your ankles.
I'll hold the pocket, but just, you know, be cool of me.
Protect me.
So my rookie year, they made all the rookies go up to San Quentin, the prison up in Oakland.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, I'm Diana 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.
