Taylor, we are recording.

It is Monday, September 19th. The boys' birthday. It's the boys' birthday today. The vibes are high. But obviously... Happy birthday to be birthday. Happy birthday to be birthday. Beautiful boys.

Hey, look, the cake relit, too. Let's go. Just like this year, baby. Relit. Relid. That's what I'm talking about. The vibes are up. Maybe we went all of our bets next weekend.

Oh, you can't say the wish. I didn't say the wish. I just said, I just said. You know what I mean? Okay. I won't tell you what I wish for. Just like my hand movement's going to, I just said, man. You're on a terror.

We can talk about that. I thought it was terror. But before we jump in, it is the boy's birthday. The vibes are up, obviously. the Titans are playing the bills tonight, so that's why Taylor's not here. But this episode is brought to you by our most trusted, greatest presenting sponsor of all time, the Chevy Silverado. Every team starts the season a little shaky. However, not the boys at Chevy.

They're still undefeated. Their star player, the Silverado. According to JD Power, Chevy is the most awarded brand for new vehicle quality, and Chevy Trucks has won more new vehicle quality awards than any of us. other brand in the world. That's some serious hardware for the boys, but champions don't stop. We know this about Chevy. They keep moving forward from the LT model to the most extreme Silverado ever, the

ZR2. Chevy gave the Silverado a new interior with a larger infotainment screen and digital instrument cluster. They gave it the towing technology and up to 14 available camera views. It's always truck season here at Bustin with the boys, but now it's also tailgate season. And what a better way to roll up, roll up, Jesus come. Roll up to a tailgate than in a Chevy Silverado boasting a larger, more functional bed than any other competitor. Head over to Chevy.com to learn more about the Chevy Silverado.

And for those people who love to look at the data, go to J.D. Power. Wait, wait, wait, wait. For J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Award information. If you love the data, visit J.D.Power.com forward. slash awards. And if you're in the greater Nashville area, take your asses to Freeland Chevy. Those boys will hook it up. I have heard that this is fact now. They are giving away a free trailer hitch with your purchase of a magnificent Chevy Sovarado. And I think they're going to throw in some merch for the boys. So, did I say magnificent?

Damn, why am I missing on the words today? Magnific. Listen, oh, 33, man, the fucking, the scary sink in a little bit more. But JP corrected me. He asked me earlier, I had said a tweet that we've been on a terror the last three months with Bustin' with the boys. And apparently it's terror. It's terror. Tear.

It's concerning because I know you've heard so many coaches or, like, teachers or parents say that to you. Will, you've been on a tear on the football field? Yeah, I'm thinking a terror, like a terror. Like a horror movie, whatever's in your fucking way, you're taking it out. Like you guys... You've been going your whole life. You've been going your whole life thinking that... My entire life, the entirety of my life.

And it's been said to you so many times. It's been a magnificent life. But yeah, I thought it was terror. You've been on a fucking terror like you've been a monster the last few months. Like, that's how I've thought. I don't think that's a bad way of thinking about it either, still. Yeah, I just don't think it's not the proper usage. Yeah, I'll just been saying it wrong my whole life.

but the vibes are up. Birthday vibes. And look, I know that the vibes could be at rock bottom. We've been hitting the sides all the way down the rock bottom. With the firing of Scott Frost, which we'll get into, the Raiders being up 20-0. The bet the bust lock of the week, I had it in Caps lock with all the Raiders emojis going on.

And it's saved in my drafts right now, because I thought that we were going undefeated with the bet the bus lock of the week. And for those that catch this bust with the boys episode and not familiar with what I'm saying, bet the bus lock of the week, we now do a show called Bet the Bus that drops every Friday, could be moving to Thursday. We don't know yet. Time will tell. But where we give our picks, or I give my picks as payoff Willie.

And which, by the way, in the NFL, I had a good weekend. I had a good slate. What was my record? you go five one and one six one and one you're gonna push too right that's what the one on the back and I had one push but your boy was the back door with the Miami Dolphins

who's like what's that coach's name Coach McDaniel yeah Mike McDaniel Mike McDaniel I think he's a stud that's kind of who I'm betting that's who I'm betting on but that came back but the Raiders bet the bus lock of the week fail me we'll get into the Raiders stuff Michigan's been lighting

it up. I got to cover the boys for Taylor since he's not here. Tennessee, we got to talk about Tennessee. They've been lighting it up to. And because we are going to the Florida at Tennessee game this weekend, what is that, September 24th will be there. Florida at Tennessee, the Barstall College Football Show will be there at the Hill. When does that show take place? You guys know an hour an hour before kickoff, but the vibes will be fucking electric. We're going to do, I'm going to do a wing eating contests against Billy football from macrodosing, busts with the boys versus macro dosing.

I'll be doing a wing eating contest. I don't know what they'll have a store. Those things get hype and also the college football shows now going there. So all the college football shows in the world is going to Florida at Tennessee. We'll be doing interviews there. It's going to be electric. Can we talk about the interviews?

Jack, so that's our, you guys know Jack, Jack in the back. My man is at. absolutely sick that he has a wedding to be in. And he, the camera's back on him right now, his heads down. The biggest,

one of the biggest 10th C fans that you will see. The way he argues about Tennessee, Titan football, you guys know he's the same way about Tennessee Falls football. He went to school there, tried out for the football team. Unfortunately, had to,

had to pivot and go to intermurals. Still got a championship. I got the shirt to prove it, bro. But he is, so down bad. One, because we chose the Florida at Tennessee game. This is preseason. And he's like, man, if they start all hot, I'm going to be sick because he knows the vibes.

He went to the Ole Miss game with us last year when we brought the bus out and did a tailgate there. And now that Tennessee is firing on all cylinders. And you guys look fucking good. You guys look fucking good. Questionable schedule this far. However, that's how it's how it's just like Michigan Wolverines. That's how you want to take care of. business. Like you want to be hanging 60 north of 60 up on these boys. But firing. Florida's

undefeated, right? No, they're two and one. Oh, got that one wrong. But Florida coming into town for a rivalry, they're saying, like, I'm hearing this is going to be the biggest game since, like, some game dated back to 2016. I don't think college game day has been in Knoxville since 2016. So there you go. We got Barstool. It's going to be fucking. Matter of fact, it's so big. There's people like, where's the bus going to be at? We're actually, unfortunately, not taking the bus because it's apparently supposed to be so fucking packed. There's not really a location that's ideal for us to place it because we're going to be doing, I'm doing interviews in the morning.

And then we're involved in the college football show as well with Barstool. That's at the hill. The location at the hill is not big enough to house the bus as well. So if we had the bus, where was the spot? It was like beans or some, cool beans. We had the bus at Cool Beans last year, then went to the college football show late. Like there's way too much going on to have the bus there. So the bus will not be present.

However, the boys, myself, JP, Blas, we will all be there while Garrett and Jack have to be involved in a wedding. Which, dude, get the fuck out here with fall weddings. Like, can we just not agree that nobody should be doing fucking fall weddings? Like, how stupid? It's football season. And like people can act like this. It's not a huge deal. Yeah, the fall weather is gorgeous.

If everybody, say you have football fans and everybody happens to be on some kind of buy week and you finagle a fall wedding, the vibes are up for a fall wedding. However, it's like no one seen what my man Jack has to go through. I'm going to a wedding in a couple weeks. Thankfully, we don't have to, there's nothing like going on. We had to actually turn something down for Bussing because of that wedding. But it's just like, it's like having a wedding on a holiday. Just don't fucking do it.

Don't have weddings on a holiday. Don't have weddings during football season. You got something, JP? Don't have it on a holiday unless it's New Year's Eve. I think New Year's Eve wedding is acceptable. Let's think about it. I've never heard that either. I do want to think about it.

It's easy to judge and quick year. It's easy to react. I don't want to. So let's think about it. Why? Why do you say that? So I'm going to one this coming New Year's Eve. And I was upset at first.

I'm like, why are we doing this? You're a glass at full guy. So. Yeah. I'm like, let me actually think about this. Usually New Year's Eve, you go somewhere. You have to pay like $150 to go do whatever. All you can drink, all you can eat. If you want to go travel somewhere, you got to stay in the hotel, whatever.

You have a wedding, free food, free alcohol. This wedding's in Nashville. Don't have to go anywhere. It's in downtown Nashville. Shout out Carter and Katz. but it's a free holiday. And everybody that you would love to spend the holiday with, you're all there. That's a good point.

I feel like it's contingent on the location. Because you could say not traveling, but say the wedding is somewhere else where you got to pay for a flight or something or travel. But you've got a case. New Year's, though, is got to be the most overrated holiday in existence. We've all had one or two New Year's that just blew our minds,

and we all are trying to relive that night every single year for eternity. I swear New Year's Eve blows. Just like J.P. saying, it's expensive. Everywhere is crowded. It's just like real big anticipation of like we have to have the best night of our lives. And it never lives up to it except for that one or two times in your whole life. So when you have already a scheduled thing, you know what you're doing, you know where you're

going to be. There's nothing else on the board. I think that takes a lot of stress out of trying to make it such a big grand night. That's a phenomenal fucking point. I think you guys are, I think I'm buying into this. What I'll say about it being the most overrated because I can get on board with that, I agree, is like when we're growing up, right, we're usually in Christmas break. So New Year's is always like a positive holiday because it comes after Christmas.

You don't want the vibes to die from Christmas and having the entire holiday season from November and December. Yeah, it's your last thing before you go back to school. And I feel like no matter what, you're always trying to like make it something happen because you're not trying to just have. have such a hangover from the holiday season that we're always trying to like new year's eve is alive and well what are we doing for new years and now that we're older and there is no like christmas break like i do think we look back we're like yo why we why do we get so fucking hype over new years we got to stay up late yeah yeah yeah you get to stay up now it's like you you go to bed like i don't remember the last time i've stayed up to actually catch the ball dropper or new

years go down i can't remember the last time i've kind of stayed up i think old or old. I am 33 now. But you guys will get there. How old are you? 27. Yeah, you'll get there. Yeah, you'll get there.

Brother, you'll get there. You guys will all fucking get there. I'm there. Yeah, Blas. I was going to say, do you... I usually have to work, so I'm up. Yeah.

I'm telling you, like, New Year's isn't like that unless, you're right. I'm more buying into the New Year's wedding because you're right. Everything's planned out. Like, it's established. You don't have to put in work.

Like, when you're thinking about going to all these like black tie events like that's kind of fucking stupid you know what I mean unless you're like a single person trying to go figure it out out there like that's what the vibes could be up you know if you go home alone that night and then you wake up on January 1st with already the regrets of like your resolution setting in it's awful bro I've been there and yeah it's a mega bonk moment I got so horny for a week straight just a Just to go home by myself. But yeah, to circle back around, don't have a fucking fall wedding.

I love you, Chase Smith and Jordan Goshok, but they know this is killing a lot of our vibes. But our weddings in Lake Tahoe, so in retrospect, it's going to be an amazing time. We're going to have an awesome, you know, weekend out of it. But we will be missing you guys in Knoxville. I hope y'all carry them vibes. I'm sure it's going to be a great weekend. Just know that we're going to have pregame sideline passes. We're probably going to have box seats.

We're going to be at the Florida game. We're interviewing people that you're going to want to kill yourself about. Can we please talk about who we're interviewing? No, we can't. We can't. The audience, everyone in this bus besides me knows who they're interviewing and they won't tell me. You are massive Vals fan and it does pain me to see you in this pain. Is it the one guy?

Is it the guy? I don't know. I don't know who your one guy is. Listen, I'm not going to look at you. I'm not tipping you off. I'm not going to look at you. I'm not tipping you off. off. Like, we're not talking about it.

All right. You'll get to see next week whenever it fucking dropped. And JP goes, you'll know, you'll be scheduling it. Yeah, exactly, exactly. But I, just, again, college football's going. The Barstow College Football Show is going to be there. We're going to, like, it's... If the Vols win, it really won't even matter for me.

Like, I'm going to be through the roof regardless. I hope they do. It'll be a... It might be okay, too. I don't know. The end of the game is going to happen. By the time the Valls Florida game ends, we will be at the altar.

So we'll be finding out standing up there. I will say this, Gary can tell you, the Valls, Tennessee, lightning shirts, they're in production. Wow. They're in production. And we got a fucking pick earlier with all the new, oh,

I'm not wearing the hat, but all the different colorways are the boys diamond hat. We got like, probably five or six. Yeah, we got a lot of different color ways coming out, like,

buckle up. Buckle up. And we are guys, like we're, We're diving into more fan bases, like be on the lookout for all of our new merch. It's at the store. dot barstillsports.com forward slash bust with the boys. Correct.

Drop a fucking comment. Yeah, drop a megabunk. But all right, let's jump into football. We're going to cover football. We're going to cover the weekend. We're going to cover some questions from the Internet that you guys left on Twitter. The vibes are going to be up. But Nebraska fired Scott Frost.

Let's address this. Yeah, chins, RIP to Chins, like the D-Corpsator. God. Can we get a moment of silence for? Chins, Scott Frost, what we thought, hang on a second, what we thought

we were getting ourselves into when hiring Scott Frost a few, five years ago when he inherited the worst debacle of all time in Mike Riley, but let's just get a moment

of silence for what we thought could have been. Thanks, boys. It's been a tough, it's been tough. Like, obviously I was, yeah,

gosh, we had Chin's and Frost on on the Boston Spring Tour. Like, look at us. We were living high. People are talking about a bus and curse, but it's not me. It's not me. We can address the bus and curse.

Look, I think what was confusing about it all is we struggled on special teams and closing out games last year. The refs stole a few games from us last year, but just closing out games making them close. I think our streak of 13 games by losing by single digits was snapped over the weekend by Oklahoma. Holy fuck, we can get into that game, too. It was close for the first couple series. There's a lot of hope. I swear to God, I was listening on YouTube TV to the game. I heard our first three and out.

I was like, oh, I'm fucking flexing in the car. And my wife's like, watch the car, the baby's in the back. And I was up. I was like, man, I'm telling you, we might sneak this game. We might fucking sneak this game. Yes, I had him at plus 10, but I thought we might sneak this game as a full win. Then we go down post, bomb, touchdown. when I say, I'm reliving it right now.

I'm getting chills. I'm like, yo, we're fucking, I'm telling you. I'm telling you. And then reality set in. They scored, then they scored again. And then I was like, it's all good. We need the over to hit because I'm on the over this game. Because we're going to be all right.

We can score points. I don't think we scored again until the fourth quarter. However, we shut out the number six team in the country in the fourth quarter, which I think you can hang your hat on going into the biweek, kind of regrouping, rebuilding. Obviously, we had to let Chins go. Which sucks, man, because we had a good defense last. year and it looked up.

We're young in a couple spots. We lost some seniors. Like, fuck, I know I'm kind of making excuses. I'm just trying to figure out, like, where in the fuck do I go from here? I am on record saying that we were going 11 and 1. And as much as I fuck around, and yes, I was fucking around. But I also, like, there was a big part of me that fucking believed me. Like, I believed it.

I was like, yo, this is your five. Frost is on the hot seat. This is fucking it. Like, this is all five of you. years. Frosty, this is it, brother, and we're all fucking backing you. And when we had that tough game against, we lost the Northwestern. And again, I will convince myself of anything.

We were over in Ireland, like, there's fucking, they're young. Like, we'll figure it out. That was week, that was week zero. Then we had a couple of closeness with those shitty-ass teams. And then it's like, all right. Wait, wait, we didn't have close ones. We lost the Georgia Southern. What the fuck am I talking about?

It was a close. It was a close loss. But I was like, it's just, I don't know. I don't fucking know. We made the right move, fire and frost. And it's painful because I think what makes it painful is everybody was backing him. Everybody wanted him to be successful. You're a lot of the shit going on out there about the way he's like, there's rumors that are floating around the Scott Frost time being a Husker.

And it's just like, you know, you want to believe in the best. You want to think that it's going to get turned around. especially because, again, we've wanted Frost in that building since I set in my video last week, but since I was there, you always heard rumors of, like, we struggled on offense with, like, back when I was young, and then at times with Taylor Martinez, but a lot of people thought of some of the play calling. And everybody would always talk about the OC from Oregon. Scott Frost, he played here. I didn't know who he was at the time.

But then when you go through Mike Riley, and he just fucking takes us to just hell. Like, he's like the coach that's like, in trust. 17, the 22-year-old kids, hey, it's okay, just do the right thing as far as, like, culture building. We were garbage. I'm talking about guys in another way. I've heard stories, like garbage.

I cursed, the chancellor, like the people there pushed out Osborne and Polini, got in Mike Riley, took us to the bottom of the ocean, and then we get Scott Frost. Like, he comes off an undefeated season with UCF, right? It was UCF, who he claims the national title with. We finally get him here and, like, you want the best. You kind of know it's going to be a few years of rebuilding.

Last year, year four, when you lose to every team by that marginally in a lot of top 10 teams in the country. And there's literally like, I know I'm a shout out from the mount top best three-win team of all time in college football. I mean, I still believe that. I think that'll stand the test of time forever. But you go into this year and you're thinking, all right, boys, we can play with everybody. Now it's four years of past. We got all of our guys in. We got our systems in place.

We got X, Y, and Z. It's all coming together. Get some transfers. and we just fucking lose, man. I think it's tough. It's fucking tough. I don't know who we bring in. I don't know who my ideal candidate is.

Just because I don't live in the world. Or like what coach is like, yeah, Urban Meyer was there over the weekend for Fox. The college football show that Fox had that came to town. And he fed into it. You know Urban. You know Urban. He was feeding in. I think he said we were going to win the game.

He's saying they're the best fans in the country. I mean, everybody's on their knees for Urban Meyer, but do you want to bring in the baggage that kind of comes in with Urban Meyer? Because there is some baggage out there. However, do you want to look past it and get to winning right now, right away? Because people believe that Urban can do that. At Nebraska, you have everything you need as a football program to succeed. You have the resources, you have the people, you have the fan base,

you have fucking everything. You have the money. I mean, we just bought out Scott Frost for $15 million and didn't wait two weeks to get it down to seven. You have all the support in the world. You have fucking everything. The facilities are building a magnificent facility that's coming in next springtime. However, you've got to figure out the recruiting game, hardcore. I think you need somebody sexy to come in, or you need somebody that's proven to build a culture

that could be living in that country, whether they're in the Big 12, the Big Ten. Like, I know they talk about Campbell from Iowa State. You talk about climbing from Kansas State. They're recruiting the same guys, the same kids, and now they're going to, I know it's hard to argue a better school, but a better resourced school at Nebraska with those coaches coming there, going from K-State to Nebraska, from Iowa State to Nebraska.

Yes, you can argue that Kansas State and Iowa State are both better football teams in Nebraska the past several years. But it's like culturally, these guys who built culture recruiting the same guys, do you move them into, like, give them all the resources in the world, you're going to get a big payday coming to Nebraska to try and rebuild that thing?

Or do you go and get somebody sexy? Like, I mean, I don't know if you can say Urban Meyer's sexy, but his coaching record in college ball sexy. Do you go after like a Dion Sanders, a big splash place, try to throw in, go after Dion for recruiting. Like you got to make a big move. Or do you go after Nick Saban? No. Just throw that.

I'm really like saying some real shit and then just say something stupid. You're on to, I think, the right thing. And we heard hype will say it when we had him on was he gets to use the brand of the University of Tennessee to recruit, but put his new spin on it. And I think Nebraska has to do that. Right. They've been keeping it in-house. So, yeah, maybe go out, find somebody random and just use that in, but you got to make it new. But they got a proven track record with their coaching history, whether they're at smaller schools.

Again, climbing at Kansas State. He's won four Natty's with North Dakota State. Campbell's done a hell of a job turning around Iowa State who's like, who's a competitive team and they're not a good fucking like it's Iowa State. You know what I mean? No disrespect to the cyclones out there, but fuck. We lost him one year. It was like fucking 9 to 7. We had like five turnovers.

I want to say three of them came inside the five-yard line. I'm making some of that up, but a lot of that's true. Like, that's based on a true story. What's your record prediction? For Nebraska? Yeah. Pull up their schedule. Hey, y'all also might hire Will Mush Champ.

Could we? I could see that happening, low-key. I don't know if you'd want to. But Mussham. He's at Florida, right? Georgia. Georgia? I mean, like, come on, you're winning at Georgia.

Like, I was saying Stoop, but you got to look at it with Stoops. If you're winning, like, close eight, nine games a year at Kentucky, like, you're walking on water there. You're not going to... Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You're in the top 10. Like, you're not going to leave an incredible spot just to go take a chance at a place that chews you up and spit you fucking out. Like, when the breast is fan base is done with you, you're fucking, we need your head on a steak.

Potentially, yeah. Yeah. Indiana. So we got a buy week. Again, we're going to sit back. There's going to be options out there again. We got the bag. Like we got the bag.

We can back up the brink truck. It's like we need to make a very good calculated decision. I think we have time to be patient with it to find the right guy. But looking at the schedule, regroup, again, take a big look in the fucking mirror. It's salvage whatever we can, Husker Nation. We're in the, we're in the motive. We got to salvage. And we've got to see the fucking glass at full.

Listen, we can give up. We can give up the promise of, like, you know, the Big Ten championship and shit like that. But there's still shit to play for. And I don't know about you, but I'm not going to fucking roll over dead. Like a bunch of you pussies out there are doing. Indiana, W. Rutgers, W. Purdue, let's be, I'll be realistic for you.

Let's say loss. Let's a loss. Illinois, again, up in the air, I like what fucking, what's that coach's name? He came from Wisconsin. Bilma, right? Brett Bilma. Yeah, yeah. He's head coach of Illinois.

Again, he's somebody who builds coach, or maybe you look at Bilma. I don't know. Illinois, that'll be a close game, but you know, I'm riding on my fucking dogs. W. Minnesota, they were tough last year. Are they winning games this year?

Minnesota winning games? Is the gophers making it happen? Jack, are you searching? Yeah, I'm over. Well, I was looking at Indiana's because you were quick off the jump with Indiana, but Indiana also should be Wisconsin this weekend by three and they're number one in the Big Ten East.

Okay, maybe I spoke a little too soon. Maybe I spoke too soon. We're not cutting that. We're riding with Indiana. Maybe Wisconsin's having a fucking down year. That is three now. Okay. All right, we'll say loss to Minnesota.

Maybe that'll be my get back for like an Indiana or something like that. Who do we have after that? Michigan, like, okay. Maybe I need to do some kind of deal with Taylor that we take the, maybe we get the points for the bus and bowl. And by the way, like we're making the trophy. The trophy's going to be fucking massive. And I don't care if we're standing there holding our dicks and we're off campus somewhere because they might not let us like bring our bus and sit there on campus. But we will be out there rallying the troops.

So if you're in Nebraska and you're thinking about going to Michigan, the boys will be there. And the vibes will be up. We'll have Michigan teas. We'll have Nebraska T's. Look, I'm rooting for Michigan when we're not playing. playing when you guys are not playing Nebraska. I'm now rooting for Tennessee. Like, I need something to be up about.

But also, people think I curse every fucking team I touch. So I'm scared to even say that. But listen, Bustin Bulls alive and as well, we're getting the trophy made. And whether or not Taylor and I have to do some formality on the next week of Busts with the boys and I hand him the trophy because I will, right now I'm saying like, yeah,

that's going to be something to play for. I think it's going to be a very close game. Michigan might end you out on that game. It's so hard for me to even say. I hate it. But maybe I just hand tailor the trophy. And then when we go on the spring tour, like we get it shipped and let our people in house, hey, we're giving you this trophy.

Fucking put it wherever you want. But we're going to finagle this thing somehow. Like the bust and bulls alive and well. What's up? Yeah, Chandler's up. The Chandler find Porier. It's all fuck Porier over here on Bus with the Boys. Wisconsin, again, it sounds like they're having a down year.

So I'm going to go ahead and claim a victory. Iowa, this is a big rivalry. So right now, what are we? We are one, two, two. two and one, three and one, three and two, three and three, four and three. And I think we're going to finish out the year and go five and three against Iowa, which gives us six wins. That's bowl eligibility, right?

The boys are going to be bowling. I'm telling you, boys are going to be bowling. I don't care what bowl it is, but we're going to be fucking up because December is a big developmental month for, like, you know, the guys, the boys. So I think we're going to be bowling this year. finish out that you're five and three. I think there's a lot to look forward to boys. JP, please stop. With that, has it been 15 minutes, Blassey? We're going to, it hasn't. All right, not yet.

It's been 17. All right, here we go. We interrupt this episode to bring you whistle pig whiskey. Shout out the boys up in Shore in Vermont that make the best 100% rye whiskey in their backyard on their beautiful 300 acres that we visited. And it is absolutely iconic. Bonnie and Clyde, Butch and Sundance, Brady and Grunk, Will and Taylor, the next legendary duo is Whistlepigs Piggyback 100%

Rye and their new piggyback 100 proof bourbon. We don't have the bourbon yet, and the boys, we get to release their bourbon, which I'm fired the fuck up about. Listen, we keep a real with you guys. Whistlepig match their piggyback 100% rye with their piggyback 100 proof bourbon whiskey. Piggyback 100 proof bourbon stands

taller and bolder than the rest of the competition out there. No other bourbon and rye duo on the market offers this big of age-proof and mash for a full send on all flavors. Piggyback 100% rye is the savory side of whiskey, while whistle pigs piggyback 100-proof bourbon is the sweeter side of whiskey. You really can't have one on your bar without the other. We enjoy ours in a maple cocktail.

Remember when we made those maple fashions out there? our maple cocktail, the piggyback 100% rye, is perfect in a maple old-fashioned. And the piggyback 100-proof bourbon is for those citrusy cocktails like a maple bourbon sour. 100 for all, all for 100. Piggyback 100% rye and 100-proof bourbon is 100% the good shit. Get your bottles at shop. That whistlepig whiskey.com or at a local retailer. Guys, the vibes are going to be up when this bourbon comes out because we fucking picked it out.

and you guys got a back because this is big like this is something to look up to this is something to look forward to um yeah uh busting bulls alive and well we talked about tennessee we talked about michigan listen michigan is absolutely disintegrating everybody out there it's like the avengers movie where people are just fucking floating away they're yeah everything that comes in hey coach i don't feel so well harball might be fully back with the boys again i love everything they got going on in michigan i'm ready for them to like play some teams because again they're a very very soft schedule similar to Tennessee. However, I do not want to disrespect the boys' win against was it Pitt? Yeah. Look, I've been having some good times watching some ball on the weekends. Like, I'm getting in the culture. I see why everybody gets, lives and die by the sword. Like, I will watch a game and people will be in the first quarter talking about we fucking suck. I'm just like, yo, why do people live this way? Like, there's so much ball left. It's like, you know, I saw somebody talking about how bad the dolphins were for the entire first half. Justified But now it's like, you know, you see what happened in the second half?

They came back and bounced back. Look, the Raiders lost. We blew a 20-0 lead. I don't fucking know. People like, is it the same old Raiders? Absolutely not. Like, it's, again, I started to get in the back-and-forth with one person in particular. I think it was about the Titans because I saw, you see everybody coming for

Todd Downing's head. And you just hate the fucking negative vibes after one goddamn week. I like, I can't say it. Yeah, that's the player side coming out of me. Because people harness all of their fandom that they've lived in Dream for since the 80s, 90s. We've been watching this team since the very beginning. And you don't understand because you're a player and you don't understand the X, Y, and Z. They take decades of fandom into one game.

Now, there's a lot of season left. Like, say your team ends up doing a losing season. The fact that you still take decades of your fandom and bring it into, like, they do this to me every fucking year. Like it's just... Listen, we can go back and forth on it, but here's where I'm going with it. Because here's why a tough start shouldn't matter,

especially in the NFL. I think the tough thing that we do is we're so bought into our college teams. I just point a check. We're so bought into our... And I'm the same way. Like, I love Nebraska. I want them to win.

But you get so bought in on Saturday or college teams where every game absolutely matters because rankings and everything else. NFL, it's not the case. Like, we went to the playoffs. We were in a win and in game being like 8, 7, 1 year in Washington. We made the playoffs.

You know, they make fun of the NFC East some years, the NFC least. Going to the playoffs at 9 and 7 with momentum. Like, I was laughing last week. I'm literally, I got the NFL Plus while you're able to watch the old games. I was literally watching our old playoff game against Green Bay in 2015 or 16. And JP's trying to work. And I just feel like one of those old heads like looking at their old table.

I'm like, see if DeShon Jackson reaches for the pylon here. We score here. We don't settle for a field goal. And then if Aaron Rogers caught us in a substitution, snapped it, penalty, throws a bomb. We were going to go three and out on those guys. And I'm like, we turned that around. We're in the game.

We might be Green Bay. I'm like living in the past, dude. It was fucking. Yeah, JP's just, yeah, as the computer, he looks like, yeah, man, that's crazy. and and but all I'm saying is there's so much season left in the NFL and the NFL is the fucking NFL shit can change in an instant in the NFL people can look at like the Titans bills game is a bad example because about time people listen to this the game will already happen

but you look at who is somebody you look at you look at L.A. Falcons traveled out to L.A. Well now 1 plus 10. and you just think that the Rams are going to dogwalk the Falcons or the Ravens looking like a good ball club and then the dolphins end up coming back. The 49ers, massive exclamation point win with Trey Lance going down, Jimmy Garoppolo coming in, and they won like 20, what did you guys win by, Blas?

I know you know. 21, I think it was, because they ended up winning in 27 to 7 or 27 to 6. Yeah. Like a massive win when your quarterback goes down after that, You know, you guys lost to... The narrative totally changed too. Everybody was off the Jimmy Garoppolo boat and now everybody's back at the media.

Yeah, now the fucking quarterback drama. I mean, we're going into a trilogy with the Tray Lance Garoppolo drama, quarterback drama in San Francisco, or, yeah, in San Francisco going into next year. But you just never know in the NFL, dude. You truly don't ever fucking know. Like, these are grown-ass men,

they're professionals. And I think what always pisses me off is, like, disrespecting the work that's put in from a new team that's separated from, like, you know, an old team. Like the Titans team this year is way different from the Titans team last year. And like you can go back and forth and talk about downing or you don't have a receiver that takes the top off like some flashy player.

You can go on and on about stuff. But the way like the way that you prepare in the NFL is so marginal when it comes to Sundays. I mean, look at the lions right now. Like look at a lot of different teams. You just have no fucking clue. and I think when everybody's ready to like, you know, sail them off into the sea and fucking kill them and say like, all right, on the next year. Especially when it comes to like the Titans after week one. It's just like, I don't know.

It's bullshit to me because I guess for me I've been in those like all those meeting rooms where how Vrabel as the head coach paints and builds the culture with all those guys. Like how all those guys are dialed in on specific things within the game playing and within the game. It's like for instance, again, we don't know what's going to happen with the bills game. And when you guys are listening to this, the results will already be figured out. However, just going after week one, when people were absolutely killing downing for that third and one call. And I was like in the same belt. Like, yeah, why are we running that tight-in sweep when you have the king in the backfield? And you can just feed that man.

Like, that's why you're paying the money. That's why he's like an offensive MVP in this league. But also, like when you hear the presser and you hear them talk about, they saw something in the game. They saw something in the preparation. And, like, Taylor and I had this same conversation, and Taylor was like, yo, if I just make that block, I know it looked like there was four dudes coming in the backfield line of play. But if Taylor makes his block, the line of scrimmage gets established

and it's a one-on-one tackle with the cornerback. However, respect the downing coming out, taking all the bullets, taking all the heat, because everyone just screams at their mountain on the top of their head, bro, just fire downing and do X, Y, and Z and do all these things. Time will tell there's always a lot of ball left. there's always a lot of ball left. People can say they were right, say they, let's say they have a bad year.

And he ends up getting canned or something like that. All I'm saying is, I hate hitting the panic button and seeing the panic happen immediately after one week. Or immediately after two games. Like the Raiders, Jack, go ahead, Jack, because I do got to get into the Raiders game. I'm with you on this. And I think the AFC South is going to be like that NFC East division this year. like whoever wins AFC South is going to win like 9 and 7. So the AFC South is a very scrappy, low kind of.

Wide open division. Yeah. I mean, we saw what happened to the Colts this week. I mean, Houston kind of held in with... Jags? Yeah, I know. And I'm getting to the Jags, Duval. I mean, they handle business, bro.

And so I'm with you on not hitting the panic button. Even if... And hopefully we do not lose tonight. And this will come out tomorrow. So, you know, like you said, the scores are... there. We don't need to hit the panic button even if we go 0-2. No, no. Our division is so

straightforward that we have a shot no matter what, even if we lose the first four games in the year. 2019, 2 and 4 rattle off the back end of the schedule and you go to the AFC championship. What do you got going on? Nothing. You got something going on, J.P. But rattle off, you start off

2 and 4. Going into the... Playing the Kansas City Chiefs going into the by week. Chiefs ended up winning the Super Bowl that year. You're playing the Chiefs going into the by week. And you end up beating the Chiefs and then you rattle off the back end of your schedule and you go in and go on a run to the FACC. All I'm saying is I hate hitting the Pan of Bund, especially in the NFL. Raiders, starting off 0 and 2, I think they're still a good fucking football team. They got the webs. They were up 20-0. You've just got to watch a tape. You've got to take accountability.

You got to understand where you went wrong, how you could have stepped on their throw, and one in the second half, you let them get back in it. Kyler Murray is a fucking video game on a couple of those two-point conversions coming back. I think a very questionable call on the holding on fourth down when he ended up making that play or when Max almost sacked him. Max's a fucking baller, by the way. That dude is just relentless all God, all four quarters plus overtime. Shout out to the boy Max. But again, I know Raiders fans feel down bad.

It's like Samo Raiders, same thing. Listen, it's a completely different regime, completely different weapons. Yeah, do you want to feed Devante Adams the ball more than two? two times the game. But yes, probably I didn't get to watch the game. But yeah, I'm assuming you want to feed the best ball player, or like the best wide receiver in ball more than a couple times. But I didn't get to see the game. I didn't get to watch what's happening. I trust the boy Derek Carr. The dude throws for 4,000 plus per year. He's got the weapons. And God, I hate that my man Hunter Remfrow fumble the ball twice late in the game. The most dependable motherfucker

on the planet. He's built like a Chevy. And Isaiah Simmons, his old teammate got him a couple times with the fumbles. And I know my man's crucifying himself. It's important that we keep his spirits up because the dude's a dog. He's a baller. We were up on the Cardinals 20-0. We lost two of the Chargers last week by five points and had like four or five turnovers. And the Chargers are a good football team. They look better than the Chiefs in that game on Thursday night, even though the Chiefs

ended up winning. Like, dude, in the NFL, anything can fucking happen. But there's zero panic in Las Vegas right now. I swear to God, these boys are a good ball club. I never played for McDaniels, but since he comes from the Belichick regime and talking to all the boys, Darren Waller, Foster. like and say shout out the boy foster for getting on that ball the first time when hunter fumbled fumbled it like just ripping that motherfucker out of there i got because i got to catch the end of the game

but foster like all the guys that have came through and talked about macdainals and this the culture and everything else like we're not hitting the panic button on the raiders the raiders are going to bounce back uh listen we got to stop putting the packers and the bears on primetime television because it's the same story every fucking time they dragged the bears they drag the bears Aaron Rogers owns the Bears Ayahuasca celebration Holy fuck that was amazing That was amazing

Whoever thought of that Shout out to the boy in the locker room That thought of that And shout out for Aaron Roder Like just shout out to everybody Playing into it Aaron Jones Studd

Holy fuck I had to play him against fantasy too We'll see what happens tonight But the Packers look good last night They're gonna figure out the running game Their defense looks good Those linebackers in the middle Campbell and Quay Walker

from, I used from Georgia, right? Dogs, bro. Their back in looks good. Their front seven's looking good. The Packers could be back in. And I love the NSC North this year. The Lions, Packers, and Vikings, no disrespect to the Bears,

but you guys, it is what it is. Like, you can't have four teams be good in the division. But the Packers, Lions and Vikings, dude, it's hard to not root for the Lions. Like, obviously watching Hard Knocks, but not only that, like the Cowboys had Hard Knocks last year,

and everybody wasn't pulling for the Cowboys just because you saw Hard Knocks. But you just see the foundation and the culture that's been built over the last couple of years with the Lions and how much the players buy in. We had Hawkinson on great podcasts to go listen to. But you just, it's hard to not root for them. They've hung up 30 plus both games. I think they're in it. You see their post game in the locker room.

Like, it's just juicy. You see the boys are truly fired up and genuinely playing for each other. Like whoever's speaking, they're, hey, quiet, quiet lifting that dude up. Like, sometimes in cultures when you're not the best. best team, you kind of feel weird speaking up. Or if somebody speaks up, you're kind of like, oh, this guy's fucking speaking up. Not the Lions, like, they look together all around. I think the Vikings are going to be, again, it's tough to say that because this game hasn't been played tonight. But Vikings, Packers, and Lions, I think we're in for a nice treat in the NFC North.

Bengals, do we hit the Pan Amund with the Bengals? I mean, good God. You lose to the, you lose to Dallas and I had tweeted it yesterday, but Andy Dalton's cousins out there, backup, just wheeling and Dealing. Dak Brice got on the hot seat. That's just for a clip. That's just for the trailer. That's just for clicks right there. No, but would have bounced back by Dallas.

Again, they looked fucking shitty in the first week. They didn't score. Everybody was ruling them out. Done. I ruled them out. Week 17, eliminated from books. Yeah, bro, so funny. And I do love living into the roller coaster of it all because Twitter or like the internet

is so fucking funny with all this. But Cowboys, another great example. You got the defending. Super Bowl runner-ups. And, you know, they beat him in Dallas, like a big win without their headman of quarterback. Tom Brady, what's something else? Yo, that fight between, yo, Mike Evans, holy fuck. Yo, like, I don't know.

We're off the top, bro, but I didn't realize he did the same thing. Last year or a couple of years ago, like, there's like, I don't know, like, as a player, you see something like that. You're like, yo, what the fuck was that? The dude comes out of nowhere, and literally he's trying to take, he's trying to take my man's soul from him with that, with that shove. Well, did you see the clip of, like, Bruce Ariens says something to Mike Evans, like, right before, and then Mike Evans rushed out there.

No, no, I didn't see that. Because I saw Bruce Ariens just looking at getting fine now. Like, Brian's not even a coach. He was on that. He was down on the sideline. Mike Evans was, like, walking off, not paying attention. Ariens says something to him. Mike Evans just takes off.

Like, hey, you're going to let... You're out there chirping, but that's all... It's just a shove that comes out of the... Holy fuck, this man's trying to really fight. He shoves and starts turning because he's ready for whatever smoke's fucking comment. You want Mike Evans on your football team. Like, that motherfucker's ready to die for the boys.

And let her for Nett in there, too. I just keep thinking of his... He's saying, like, I'll fight 95 of them. What's the worst they gonna do? Kill me? Yeah. You know those boys are about it, man. I love the bucks, bro.

But that is so funny. You know, Arias was probably you're going to let him do like your quarterback. And just out off the top of the top of the... Robes, watch out, watch out, watch out, just comes in and twice now with Lattimore. Lattimore's a dog, too. But Brady's also now taking Wednesdays off. Did you see that? Wednesday's the most important day of the week for practicing.

He's taking off. I mean, I don't, dude, it's Tom Brady, the motherfuckers a goat. He's like, what is he, 40, mid-40s? Like, A, you don't play football this long. B, you're not the goat playing football this long. C, like, you're not still playing at the highest level. at the highest level playing list. Like, Tom Brady's the only one

that lives in this world that he's in. Like, nobody really, like, what? Adam Venetary, the kicker, I guess. You can just say a goat that played for that long. But Tom Brady is really the only person that I understand what is happening with his life. How much ball he knows, how much ball he's probably forgotten

than anybody in the league and still smarter than everybody else. Like... You see that thing where they did where they break down each decade. He's a stud, bro. He's like, yeah. And all of his teammates, like, if Tom Brady's on my team and he wants Wednesday off,

like he's just got this oar about him where it's like, oh, it's Tom Brady. Like, dude, if he wants Wednesday off, say he shows up Sunday and he knows more than, you know he's still going to know more than you on the offensive side. As a teammate, like, let that man do what he wants to do. You know, he needs a nice fucking haircut. His hair's getting a little long all the time where he can go. Sport clips. Shout out the boys at sport clips.

This is where Vrable goes. I think probably Belich. And now Tom Brady can go there. as well. Has it been a while since you last got your hair at Tom Brady? Has your hair metal band threatened to find a new is that bassist?

Fuck. Bassist? Bassist? What's a bassist? As your hair metal band threatened to find a hair metal band? Okay. Now I'm putting it all together. Metal band. Has your hair metal band threatened to find a new basis unless you get it dealt with?

The last time you looked in the mirror, did you scare yourself, Tom Brady? If you answered yes to any of those questions, Tom, it's time to head over to Sport Cliffs. Make sure you get the MVP haircut experience while you're there. They've upgraded it with a brand new signature scent that's on a perfectly steamed hop towel for you, Tom. The folks of Sport Cliffs have been hard at work in the lab, crafting the most relaxing scent in the world, lavender, eucalyptus, camomile, all perfectly blended to make your MVP experience better than ever, Tom. head to a sportcliffs and try this MVP sent for yourself brother Sport Clips the pros in men's hair

Basses threw me through my face is threw me for a loop boys What else we got on the docket? We've been answering some style right we've been covering some ball Do you want to go to fan questions? I see Jags are Jags for real on there? Hey Peterson I'm telling you Peterson Trevor Lawrence I like what sucks is I was like I was having the Titan and Colts compete. Colts, man, is that...

How do you say the head coach's name? Coach, Coach Wright? Yeah, like Frank Reich. Frank Reich. He could be on the... I mean, fuck. I mean, you're dropping two games like that. Dear God.

I mean, they were down what... You think so? See, I haven't watched... I haven't got to watch those games because NFL Plus absolutely put me in a fucking spin zone. Like, I thought... Not only NFL Plus.

Like, I got... First, you got the NFL app. You got the NFL fan. fantasy and all that shit. Then I'm like, okay, let me get NFL plus. It seems like I can watch more games or I can follow my games and I'm on to watch. And then I'm like, okay, now it's NFL plus premium. Okay, now we're just fucking throwing on these, these bonus words at the end of the title. So I get NFL plus premium, pay the $80 to $100 to get it. Maybe it's 70. I don't know. No free shoutouts. But, um, yo, this, this fucking ass just like the radio.

It's just like I got a serious X-M in my pocket. Like, it's like, I, I, I, I, I, can watch the local games that I can already get on YouTube TV, that I can already get my local channels. And then it's like, I'm clicking on all the games. I'm literally, I'm opening on my computer because I'm like, maybe I can just only watch it on my computer. And I go and it literally just says listen to the game. It's the Bessachi app. Yeah, it's the fucking Bessachi out, bro, the fucking radio show. Like, all you can do is listen to these games. You can watch the replays afterwards. I do love the coaches cover you can watch the end zone view to where you can like watch tape. However, NFL

plus premium and you're only giving me the local channels and then I got to listen to the rest of the games? I know people are telling me that. People are trying to give me the streams, all the different streams, but streams get a little, streams get a little suspect. Like, I'm not going to be sitting there trying to live in the stream world. Jack, I know you gave me a stream too.

I feel like I'm catching a stream bullet right now. Oh, everybody in my comments, everybody in the comments was giving me streams. I'm like, man, what do we trust here? But it's like NFL Sunday ticket. Like, I'm just trying to find what's, so it needs to make the NFL Sunday ticket on some other fucking platform to,

than direct TV. Unless you can stream it. Can you stream Sunday ticket without having direct TV, like, bought? Yeah, I'll let you send me a Blassey, but, yo, NFL premium plus, get fucked, boys. You can watch the condescension on YouTube. They got me, they got me. They got it. It's all good.

It's all good. 80 bucks, I'll get that back on the parlay this next week. You know what I'm saying? No free shout-outs. We can bleep this, but 2H TV is when my dad sent me, and he says that you can stream Sunday ticket, red zone, and much more. It's $10 a month. And it's like a subscription base,

but you have to, I think, either have a fire stick or Apple TV. Okay. We're putting people on game right now, especially me. Yeah. I don't need to bleep that. Is it illegal? No, no, no, no. 2.H. TV.

10 dollars a month, baby. And you get Red Zone, Sunday ticket, and then I would assume you probably get multiple of the actual games that are on local broadcast. I don't your dad. Because literally, I was like, I'm wanting to watch the Raiders game because that was my bet the bus lock. I'm like, oh, we're rolling.

We're beating the shit out of Arizona. You would question like, is Arizona any good? Because the week one that they had going in the week two. But again, zero panic button. I don't want to go back to that and unpack all that. Zero panic button. The Raiders are fucking good. Max Crosby, he's going to get it done.

Derek Carr. Devonte Adams, Hunter Remphro's going to bounce back. Shout out the boy. Hey, I know you're low right now. You think the world's coming on top of you. Comeback game. Get back on track week. Let's answer the internet, boys.

All right. Let's get through these fan questions. You guys dropped a lot of questions. I do appreciate everybody jumping in the comments and dropping a question. We'll try to get to some of them. I'll shout you guys out on the show. And again, if you're watching right now, listening, wherever you're getting your, wherever you're getting bustle with the boys, make sure you're subscribed.

Drop a comment in the comment section. We're solo-dolo this week. No interviews. We wanted to catch up with you guys. And then also look forward to bet the bus. It's our gambling show. I go over a college slate. However, I'm down bad at the college slate.

I would look at fading me every weekend in the college world right now. That's what I'm going to say right now. I think I'll come back. I think I'll figure out the game a little bit more. As far as NFL goes, I did have a very good week too. And I look to capitalize and continue that momentum going into week three. You can catch that on Friday dropping at 10 o'clock central time in the morning for your weekend. Fun.

Well, following that, it is a good segue into it. Our first question from at B. Gregg's 85. Serious question, but as a free agent, are you allowed to bet? Zero clue. No idea. I think I'm in muddy waters. Last year I looked to bet. Last year, I looked to get in the gambling a little bit and partaking in it with the

Barstall Sportsbook. And we had to go through, I had to go through a couple lawyers. Somebody at the NFLPA helped me out. I talked to my actual football agent and then obviously Barstow's legal team as well and the consensus was like if you're still if you're still actively trying to play

like I would recommend just staying away because you just don't really know it's kind of like unknown if you can or not. Free Calvin Ridley by the way if I were to go and be on a team this year I would the idea would be look

I'll sign whatever it takes to show you that I'm not going to bet and gamble and everything in between, yada, yada, yada. However, to answer that question just by itself, I have no clue if you're allowed to. And to answer, so why are you doing it this year, if you're looking to play last year and you decided to opt out of doing it? Look, I think every year I get more and more kind of out the door with playing ball. Like to where the podcast is at, to where Bustinth the boys is at, our partnership with Barstool right now, like everything going on. Like at the end of the day,

I would make, you know, last year I turned down. Who offered me at the beginning of the year? Oh, the Panthers offered me at training camp. They won a training camp. I turned that down. And there wasn't a whole lot of movement during training camp last year. I want to say maybe the Panthers came. They might have came twice after somebody got her.

Or they traded Denzel Perryman away. And so I had an option with the Panthers. I turned that down because, again, it's at this point, it's salvaging. your body as much as possible. At the end of the day, look, the boy just turned 33 years old. Like, the fact that I'm looking, the fact that I can sit here

and talk about playing in the NFL of 33 as an undrafted cat and everything else, like, I can't believe I've played this long. I mean, I can't believe it, but I can't believe. Does that make sense?

Like, in the beginning, the goal was to, yo, give me on the practice squad. I'll try and finesse the practice squad for a couple years just to get a little jump sort on the bank account a little bit, like $100,000. And then,

And then you realize you can make the team. And it's like, all right, I want to make the team. And then you want to try and hit the average career, which is three and a half years in the NFL. You want to try and get three years and get the pension in the NFL. And then it's all right, I want to get a second contract. And then it's like, all right, I want to get, you know, seven years. And then by that time, it's just kind of year after year after that. And then we came out with Bustle with the boys in 2019 and say, yo, how sick would it be to juggle?

You know, when you stand up the podcast, you don't know if you're playing yourself out of the league being this vocal and cussing and telling the stories that we. tell and all the stuff that we do that we don't really edit out at times. Like maybe I'll play myself out of the league. I could be playing myself out of it because I was a free agent at that time. And then that's when I went to the Raiders the first time. It's like, yo, how sick is it that we're juggling podcasting and an NFL and playing in the NFL? Like McAfee retired to go do podcasting.

I want to say maybe AJ Hawk might have had a small podcast that he started before he joined fully the Pat McAfee show once he retired. But I don't, it's hard to figure out. guys don't podcast and play, actively play, unless you do it in the off season, like trust level, shout it to them. I think they got a nice product. But that's something that they do in the off season, then they roll it out during the season.

Or you just podcasts in the off season, you don't do it in season because it's very like when you're playing ball, you're focused on playing ball because the work that's put in that building, you don't want to disrespect the work that's being put in in the building, and you don't want to be a distraction. And then I think year over a year since we started bustle with the boys, we partnered with Barstool, we started to be a little, make you start to make money you start to like do all these things and i think every player's fear

when retiring and not playing football anymore is that your identity has been wrapped up in a sport for the entirety of your life your off-season's always figured out you're always thinking about the next football season and how you can get better you're doing all these things to where your identity is wrapped up and playing ball and i know i've hit on this in the past before since we're kind of talking about year 10 and everything else with gambling and all that shit um you get to where, you get to where your biggest fear is like, what am I going to do with life after ball? And now that we found, like, now that we've done, been doing busts with the boys, like, this is something that I, like, wake up and I think about all day long. Like, even when I was in the building playing football, I'll think about, hey, are we getting this vlog dropped?

Hey, are we getting, are we doing this? Or, you know, how can we, how can we parlay this, this next week or how are we going to figure out the next episode? and I found something that I've like, I love just as much as I've, like it sparked me, right? Just as much as like playing ball and studying and preparing every week. And back when I had, you know, back,

like, I know we can joke about me having my heyday and still being in my prime at 33 years old, but back when I was like in my heyday with playing ball at Washington and then trying to like get back in the starting lineup for Tennessee and the Raiders those first couple of years, like then it's like football is like the fucking best. because you want to be, you've always wanted to be an NFL player all life.

Now that I've found something that I've busting, each year I've gotten a little bit more out the door because I found something that has established me now off of the field, which is ultimately what every player's fear is when playing ball, especially when you're about to be done playing. I think when we did stand up the pod, there's that part of me thinking like I am on my back nine, I don't know if I'll get to be a starter again or play since with the Titans,

I didn't get to play that year. And so I didn't want to be that fucking grinder that was on a 90-man rock. that had to make a 53-man roster because I felt like I had put it in the work to have a resume to show that like, yo, this is a guy who's on our 53-man roster no matter what. So I was kind of over that. And every year it's been like, okay, how can I avoid training camp? Get on right before the season starts because then I get the full salary. Last year it was, and then with the Titans, I got on with the Titans, and then I got to double dip because I got cut and got brought back on.

And then last year, it was I don't want to do training camp at all because I wanted to do the podcast. It was way more important to me now to focus on the transition of ball because my career after ball is going to last a lot longer than my career playing ball. So it was important to not do this stuff last year so that we could do our vlogs, we could do our pods because Taylor had to, he was coming back from his ACL. It was super important that he had to play kind of limit distractions and everything else. So it's important to me to make sure we were taking care of throughout the entirety of the season until I went to Vegas. and played. Got to go to Vegas the last five weeks. And again, it's like, you know, this year going into it.

There was zero part of me that was going to play for anybody in OTAs, training camp. The Falcons, you know, I would talk with Coach Smith and he would have feelers out, like, hey, when would you want to come in if you did want to play? And there was no part of me that wanted to play in training camp. Outside of that, there hasn't been a whole lot. Like, I never know how serious, Bessacea, like, Bessacch is like, hey, you know, are you in shape and can you cover a punt? And like now we've played so much into the bit of, of like joking and all I'm ready to go right now.

Like yada, yada, yada. Like push come to shove and we're at the end of the year and somebody had a call and they're like, hey, you just got to stop gambling and we want you. We need a body. We need somebody to cover a pun and play special teams at the end of the year. Playoff a little, playoff Willie's alive because we've done our work with Bustin with the boys during the football season. And now a team knows they're like, oh, yeah, I still got to do this because contractually we're kind of obligated. And not only that, but this is more important to me now than playing football.

So that's kind of my spiel on year 10. I don't know. Was there anything I'm not answering? Well, somebody else at I'm Skelter asked, would you give it the possibility of a year 10 to take an assistant coaching job? See, like, short answer, no. But what I'm talking, what I'm going to talk to now is when I was playing ball, I wanted nothing more than to coach football when I got done.

Like I've always wanted to coach football. When I went on my recruiting visits, I would ask Bo Polini, I would ask any head coach that I got to any coach that I sat with when getting recruited, what degree would you advise me to go into? Because ultimately I want to coach when I'm done playing. Like I love fucking the exos and balls. I love the strategy. I just, I love all of it.

I love all the guys working in unison to make a play happen. To me, that was my, that was my pro. That was my thing. that was my edge in the league is playing from the neck up. Like, I knew I didn't, you know, they always joke on me. You never saw your boy on punt return because I didn't have the longest arms to block guys and hold people up. And on kick return, I'd mostly be in double teams because, again, the arms thing.

Like, I would have to throw my head into guys into offensive linemen faster and more versus using my hands because, again, linemen are way bigger than me. So, like, the tangibles, right? I knew, like, where I had to find my edge was playing, like, from my IQ level from, like being a step quicker, like winning before the play starts, winning it within the first second of the play. Because if you're somebody who can win on the back end of the play, like those guys, those are the one percenters that are playing and can play

for as long as they want. They need to figure out winning at the snap, pre-snap, and during the snap. But you get judged a lot in the scouting world of how you can win throughout the entirety of the snap. But I don't know. I don't even know what tangents are. Oh, yeah, playing from the neck up. But I've always loved the idea.

idea of coaching. Now that I have busts with the boys again, like the stress in the world that you have to live in in the high performance world of football, that is football in the coaching world of, you know, getting fired and moving your family and putting in the long hours all the way to midnight. Listen, if I was on my own, I love that type of shit. I love the war room attitude. I love like being in the fucking suck with the boys and figuring out, hey, how are we going to take our O and two team this week? Or yeah, we lost this week. And everybody's fucking saying and fuck you, we suck and everything else. How are we going to get out of this

and throw the middle finger to everybody else? Like, I love that, I love that itch of it all. But with the family and everything else, like, we've established ourselves in the podcasting world to where it's given that option to not coach. And I would love to coach one day, but I would love to do it knowing that, like, I just want to do it.

My wife's fully supportive of me. I love being a dad. Like, I see the misses that you have in the coaching world, even as a player, too, like these guys who have kids, players are just not around. You got to give so much to football that you miss out on everything else. And I just think there's a lot of other shit happening to where I would, to answer that question, no, I would not take a coaching job? Matter of fact, your boy got all, your boy's getting looked at.

Would you come coach at the university as an assistant, some assistant role at Tennessee? And I've gotten feelers, like all of my coaches that I've known, they all say, besides you when I got done and he cut me the second time, even though actually the first time. The first time he cut me last year on the Raiders, the minute you are done playing ball and you don't want to do your Johnny Carson radio show bullshit and you want to coach, call me.

Lefleur is saying, like all my relationships I've had in the coaching world, it's all whenever you get done, fucking call, like I would love to coach. It's just, dude, this is such a fucking good gig right now and I have so much fun doing it to where, no, I would not leave or sacrifice a year. year 10. I wouldn't leave bus with the boys to coach. Not now anyway. Anything can change. Anything can fucking happen. Nice. We talked about it earlier, just Nebraska, but from Askerberg on

Twitter, realistic timeline for Nebraska to compete in the Big Ten again. Love that question. We're back this week. I'm just kidding. It's going to look, I mean, it's going to take time, like a new coach who comes in. The story you want to look at right now is Dan Campbell with the Lions. It's going to take a minute. It's going to take a minute. It's going to take a second. It's going to take a season, maybe two. But you want culturally in the foundation being built to where you cut out the bullshit. You have somebody that's 100% all ball, 100% all the boys. You have the right staff in place because, again, Nebraska has the resources to support anybody who comes in. Recruiting's got to happen a little bit. However, I do think there's some talent.

There's some in Nebraska. You need depth. You need less white guys on the football field. just say that. I mean, it's true. But you need more depth. You need more, you need better, you just need more talent. You need more depth. And again, the biggest focus is got to be on recruiting and straight fucking culture, boys.

Because that ultimately is what's going to end up when you games, especially when you're in a pinch, when you're in a close game, when shit's in the fan, you default to your fundamentals. And that is all fucking culture. Anything else? Do what? Should I hit this before I... Okay.

Then we have this and then we have one more, but it's the robot question. What do you want to do for the robot question? Do you want to do the Game of Thrones? Yeah, we can do that. Yeah, we can do that. Hello, Fresh. Have a pack schedule this fall

Come watch the boy. Absolutely sling it with the weekend bets. Is this officially, or we can't do? What else do we have, Jack? Any other questions that we can answer out there? There was a handful. Talk about the Raiders. Well, the Raiders turning around.

What do we see their record being given their start? Is there anything outside of all? Yeah, anything outside all the football talk? Because I feel like I gave my heart and sold all that football. I think we've hit a lot of football talk. We want to hit this one more of just kind of a personal question. Would you give, or excuse me, does ketchup belong on hot dogs? And should a steak ever be cooked well done?

Ketchup? Does ketchup belong on hot dogs? Ketchup has a place for hot dogs. Aps of fucking Lutley. It's like a northern thing. Like northerners, if you get ketchup on a hot dog, it's a big no-no. But I don't get that. I always grew up with a hot dog.

Nice ketchup. You know how it is, brother. like, when you're, there's culture, right? Like, you want to be a part of something that's bigger than you. When you grew up and you learn that, and you learn that, hey, we don't put ketchup on hot dogs, that's for pussies. And that's, like, one of the first things that you kind of hear.

And, like, we do mustard, we do sauerkraut. We do all these other things. And then, like, you get to a place where you say you go off to college and you meet somebody from a different location than you. And then you're just going toes in the middle of the hallway or the middle of the classroom or the middle of the locker room about how you eat a hot dog. there's pride in being from somewhere. It's like me.

I posted that photo of when I do the chili with peanut butter sandwiches. You can talk about that, JP. Great turnout to the birthday party, by the way. Talk about that. That was so funny. Yeah, we can talk about that. But it's like I'm ready to take on whatever the fuck happens. When people talk about that sounds disgusting.

Peanut butter sandwiches dipped in chili. Like, JP can vouch. My dad was sitting there and he goes, oh, you've never heard of peanut butter sandwich. sandwiches dipped in chili. He's like, and then he literally said verbatim what I've said on the pod, but he continues to say, oh, we used to have this like growing up, you know, every week, once a week you would have peanut butter sandwiches and they'd put, it put some in that peanut butter. I thought it's honey. I thought it's honey. I'm like, to sweeten it up, I'm like, that's honey. Like, no shit. He found out however many years later, decades later that they mix honey with the peanut

butter. But they dip it. He's like, oh yeah, we dip in chili. And JP tried it. JP, I'll let you have the floor and talk about it. Yeah, no, I mean, it was definitely solid. Like, Will has clearly gassed it up a lot. And it was, it lived up to how he gassed it up. Okay, well, what are you going to do? Like, I feel like you kind of back in the deck and also said a compliment. No, I'm saying.

Like, it wasn't like, uh, I wasn't wowed. You said, hang on. Hang on, brother. I'll lower my voice because I don't want, uh, I don't want a repeat of Shoreham, Vermont when we were in Whistlepick, talking about beach fires or Slakeby. because I think we're on the same team. Yeah, we are.

But I do want to say in the same breath, you said, Will gases it up so high. However, you didn't say however. And you also said, it lived up to him gassing it up. Yeah. So you're saying it lived up to the hype, but you're also saying it didn't wow me.

And you said, I said, hey, what do you think? Mind you, it was on sourdough bread. It wasn't on this nice, sweet, soft bread. You know that's different. That actually does play a huge factor in it. But for you to still say, you eat on my, hey, what you think? you're thinking, you go, it's better than I thought it was going to be.

You said you weren't wild? Yeah, I mean, like, wowed is just big time. You're saying, in your situation, you would take it upon yourself, you would initiate saying, hey, this is fucking awesome. No, I wouldn't say this is awesome. It was like, it was really good. But, like, it's not something that I'm going to, like, I won't tell my friends, like, you guys have to try this.

But, I mean, I would encourage them. How about this? Can we come to a compromise here for people that, think it's just asinine that combination, can you just say, hey, yo, it's not, it's not bad like you think. It actually, it actually works. It's just, you know, I'd probably eat my chili differently. One thousand percent. Okay. And, but not on sourdough bread. Yeah, yeah. That was the only bread we had. No, but it was, yeah. It's way better than I thought it was going to be. Because I was one of those people that was like a hater. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, what are you doing with

peanut butter and chili? Had it? That's a meal. Yeah. I could be a family meal. Yeah. And to answer the second. by that question? No way, steak should never be cooked well done. I was, I was thinking about it once you said that, like, okay, what about shitty steak? Do you still cook it? Like, no, like you want to give it the best chance possible to win. People who get their steaks well done, they don't get it. They grew up thinking that if there's red in the chicken, it can make you sick. That must mean if there's red in the steak, it can make you sick. We're talking chicken and beef, you dumb motherfucker.

Like, you got to give the steak the beef the best chance possible. When you're eating steak, I don't care what cut it is. You have to get at least medium. I'm medium rare. I like mine a little more. Like, hey, go knock that thing out in the backyard right now. We'll figure it out, bring it in here. But you better get that thing at least medium.

Other than that, like, what are you fucking doing? Have you ever heard of medium rare plus? I have. I have. I just learned about that. But does medium rare plus go towards? towards more rare or more medium. In between medium rare and medium.

Okay, so that's game. Listen, if you don't want to take a big leap to go to medium from medium to medium rare, tell them you want medium rare plus. If you like legitimately order a steak, well done at a restaurant, I know we say this phrase joking a lot, but I'm so fucking serious when I say it, you cannot be trusted with anything. Like even with the smallest of responsibilities, you're off the table for me. You're out of my life.

and I don't want to talk to you anymore because it's like chewing on rubber. Like you don't, you need some color in that meat. Like, I'm with you. I agree with it. Hey, yo. You need some color in that meat, brother. You need some.

And by the fucking way, Fido's. I used to love Fido's down in Hillsborough Village in Nashville. You used to love it. I would, people would come in and be, hey, where should we go for breakfast or brunch or something like that? I'll say, yo, go to Fido's Rips. I went to Fido's last week, ordered, order for two, over $100.

I'm talking to steak scramble, which they don't even call it that anymore. Two steak scrambles and two lattes over $100 fucking dollars. What? Yes, bro. It's called a Fido Scramble. Now you add steak to it.

So you're paying $11 or $12 for a Fido scramble. Add steak is nine extra fucking dollars. And that motherfucker was well done. Arrest them. And with it, they're like, do you want to, we have this green sauce. You know those two little silver metal, like little mini bowls? What are those calls?

Tell me what you're about to say, bro. Brother. Got, okay, we'll get two of those for each plate because the sauce was rips. It's got a nice heat to it. It's a good meal outside of the fucking well-done steak. That's horseshit. And they charge $4 a pop. $4 for a cup of sauce?

A small cup, not even like a like elite. put in a fucking jar to where you can take it home and use it if it's good. He's America. What did he say? Joe Biden's America. Bro,

I'm telling you. Because they got a new chef in. Apparently it's a new chef. Okay, he cooks his steaks well done. And he redidded the menu because it used to be called a steak scramble. You would say steak scramble. It was written on the menu.

S-T-E-A-K-scramble. But now they're like, oh, we do it differently now. Now you get a phytosgram one. You can add a protein or you can add something to it. You look, steak, nine bucks. How much was the initial dish if two of them put you over almost 100? Mine's a lot of it. Okay, so, let's do the math here.

You're talking, like how much is just the fido scrambling? So I got a fido scramble. I think it's 11 or 12. Steak add nine. Let's just say that's 20 bucks. I think I got an avocado. I think I added avocado. And you know how people are these days.

They're fucking selling avocado out there for like $8 for half a goddamn slice. Avocado and then two sauces, bro. The sauce pisses me off so much. So if you're talking Fido Scramble, add steak, two sauces alone, you're looking at $30. You add an avocado to that or bacon. Maybe I added bacon. You're looking at, that's over, that's north of $40, probably. the way they're selling this fucking bacon and avocado.

And the bacon wouldn't even like that. You better give me a thick cut bacon. A couple pieces too. Yeah. You're talking over 40 bucks and then the lattes? I'm assuming those are, they might have ram me around eight bucks. Dude, it was over $100.

My friend paid for it. And I felt bad where I Venmoed him 50 bucks. I was like, my man, I know it was my turn to get the meal today, but let me get my portion at least. Hey. Bro, yes. We're never going back there. Fido is dead to me until they can turn this around.

Hopefully somebody hears this on the podcast and can get it to him because they used to hook it up. Taylor and I would go and eat there, and then they would hook up extra stuff, throw a gift card or something. Like Fido was like the boy. They were part of the boys. And I truly felt hurt and disrespected north of $100 for a breakfast fucking meal.

Two meals, two lattes over $100. I don't know, man. There's a lot of weird shit going on right now. Spooktober's coming. I think we can get fired up about Spooktober. Look, our T's are out. We've sold north of a few hundred already. People are buying into the Spook.

JP, if you can throw up the graphics right here to where the shirts are being shown. Got you. Go buy the shirts, man. And we also got a little dad hat. A little dad hat that says Spooktober in like the goosebumps font. Fire. But you get a whole little fit. The Spooktober vibes are up.

Spooktober vibes are up. Oh, there you go. We're going to do. So what we're going to do, we're going to do our shout-out. no free shoutout of the week. And then we're going to do our tier talk. And the tier talk's going to be best tailgate slash watch party food from the hip. We're not using a list, not using reference.

And then we'll get to our row back question of the day, our final rowback question of the day. Do you got the robot question teed up? Yeah. Do you want to do the Game of Thrones one? That's fine. That's fine. That's fine. Yeah, don't want to tease them.

Just continue to watch the episodes. You want to check out what this question is going to be. Teases is good, though. All right. Now for one of our favorite segments of the week, shoutout, no free shoutout segment of the week, G, kick us off, brother. We've been on a terror with these fucking shoutouts. You don't want me to go first because mine's about to hit.

I know all of y'all follow me on Twitter, so you probably saw me hint at this. But my shout-out, no free shout-out of the week, is when a song gets you right in your feels. It can be good, can be sad, and be angry. Doesn't matter what the emotion is,

but it's when a song just strikes right in the heart. And I know we've all been there. So that's my shout-out. No free shout-out of the week. The certain song last week... Yeah, go ahead. Say what the song was last week,

because you got brought the tears. I think you got something like that. You got to speak your truth there. The certain song last week, which I'm not like a huge country music fan, but this Morgan Wallin song thought you should know, it got me.

Apparently buckled him. My man, tears. up. I was listening to it. I was like, I gotta turn this off. I'm about to go in the gym. I can't be crying. Oh, you were in the driveway or you were in the parking lot about to go into the gym? I listened to it like five times in a row. It was good. And again, I'm not a country music fan, but that, hey, I feel you on the vibe, though. When a song hits you just write, like, it's different. Yeah. It could be a fight, like a hype song and you just get that grin kind of like. Oh, I'm about to go off in this car ride. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Yeah.

Jay Ho, bless us. Somebody brought this to my attention on Twitter, but I had to make it a little bit different. My shout-out, no-free shout-out of the week, goes to the bottom line, or depending where you grew up, the sidebar of the local news station, because in the wintertime, specifically,

that is where you would find out if you had a snow day from school or a two-hour delay, which is just unbelievable. So my shout out, no free shout out, goes to the blurry cameras and the bottom line of the local news station. Kids nowadays get to see it on Twitter. I would assume it's the same feeling.

Maybe. Probably not. There's nothing like you in the squad standing in the living room looking at the little chart where, you know, they're outlining the counties. The tickers going underneath. and you see your school pop up, canceled?

And nothing even more devastating than saying that your school was in. I mean, it was like, it's like the first, like, real thought of depression you had as a child. You're just like, you're just ready to die. You run out of the window and look outside back. Man, what are we talking about right now? I can't go to school in this. Yeah, I can't do this. That's a good one.

That's a good one, bro. Yeah, I love that one. Mine was pretty similar to G's, one on a different things. So I'm going to shift. And I know we talked about the Valls and going to be missing this weekend, very upset about it. But my shoutout, no free shoutout goes to short weeks. Gary and I will be flying out on Thursday to Lake Tahoe. And when you're sitting on a Monday, you're like, oh, wow.

Like, that's just a couple of sleeps away. Like, we're almost done with this week already, and it's only Monday. But we're still grinding through it. But it gives you a little bit of extra added motivation. And you're just like, hell, yeah. Like this week's, it's going to zoom by. And we're getting to go to a beautiful place. Shout out to Chase Smith and Jordan Gashok on their beautiful marriage that will be official come Saturday.

Hopefully with a Vols win as well. But yeah, shout out to the short weeks. I love that. My head's kind of everyone a shout out. But I'm going to shout out, no free shout out on when you first figured out, that a cup a cup would heighten the volume of the music playing from your phone.

I feel like when you learn that for the first time, you're by yourself, and I don't know about you guys, but to me, I thought I cracked something where I was going to put everybody on that kind of game. And then ultimately you realize, like, everybody kind of knows it. However, the first time you learn it,

you're thinking, yeah, I'm going to set it off at this next little party if we don't have like a speaker going on. Or whatever... Horrible party. Hang on, hang on. Or just, I was going to say a casual little get together, like set off the vibe a little bit. Because I do parties a little like, yo, what a sheet party? I can't wait to do this.

I can't wait for my phone in this cup. But that's my shout-out. I know for shout-out when you first learned how a cup heightened the volume of the music you played from your phone. I like that. I like that a lot. Thanks. I thought I was really sink and click.

When I said cup. Yeah, when you go, when I first learned about a cup, we go, okay. Where is this going? Oh, all right, tier talk. Our tier talk is best tailgate slash watch party food. Because tailgate, like I get it. I haven't gotten to partaking a lot of tailgates,

but also watch parties. I think they're kind of the same vibe. Like you're having people over, but best tailgate and watch party. party food. I'm going to go last, boys. Our God tier. Oh, our God tier, I think we've all unanimously unanimously agreed that what? Gary? Fuck you, dude. Unanimously agreed.

I'm on a terror with these words today. That wings are God tier. Moment of silence for wings being Godtier. Let's get to it, boys. Who wants to go first? And is any computer, do you got, you got stuff pulled up on your computer? You see what I see. Okay. All right. All right.

All right. Gee, go ahead. Tier three. Tier three, do you work your way up? Three. Yeah. All right. Tier three for me is going to be jalapino ranch dip.

No, you got to do all three. All three? Yeah. Tier two. Meatballs. In the crock pot? You know, that shit's fire. The three ingredient?

Yeah. Meatballs? All right. Tier one. Buffalo chicken dip. Next. I love that. I fucking love that.

Because I got it. That means he didn't say any of yours. What's that? No, he did. Oh, he did? Yeah, I love the buffalo chicken dip. I know. Big vibe.

That is in mind, but I feel like I needed to pick a different one now. I hate that tier talks went that way because you do feel pressure of like, damn, that's going to seem like I'm dick riding if I pick. If I pick what he picked. Oh, way to piggyback, Will. Yeah, this is tough without a freaking... All right. My tier three will go to, like, the Hawaiian rolls,

ham and cheese, like, sliders. Fire. Massive fan of those. Tier two will be bacon-wrapped jalapinos. Hang on. Halapino poppers. Yeah, yeah, stuff with you. Yeah, yeah.

Because I love that. Dude. I love that. That should be my tier one. More blues load. He might as to say a weak tier one. I know, dude. Oh, no.

My tier one. I didn't think about, tier one is a check. Oh, hey, pull off a Lenny. Hey, pull off a Lenny. Oh, yeah. My tier one is the Leonard Fournette. I don't have a tier one. Oh, really?

I can't think of one right now Sometimes you gotta rip the fucking cord You gotta pull the shoot Yeah jump out of the plane That's the problem He said that's my tier one My tier three might be a little controversial Because it's not a food

But when you're at like a nice Well done tailgate Whether it's Some girls or some of the moms They bring like a really Like usually it's for the season Like depending on what time of year it is but like a really good cocktail mix.

They'll bring like a big jug of like a really nice drink. And I'm not like a huge like mixed drink guy. Like I like beer like tealosota. But when you see that and it's usually like some beautiful fluorescent color, you're like, oh, I'm going to have a cup of that. Whether it's some kind of nice, you know, lemonade or like a false cider, that should be hidden. So tier three is that like, what's the word I'm looking for?

Can I get some help? Just like a seasonal drink. think the word is canceled because I think we should strip you of your tear talk right now. Why? Because you said that shit be hitting, don't mean it like gets on the list. You're doing a drink. We said food.

I thought it was tailgate snacks and stuff. Come on, don't do that. Hey, don't. Is this not part of it? I know you're feeling. Hey, this is where you got to identify. I am going to stand on this hill and I know that my people will back me up when they have that false cider in their cup and it's about to.

That's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying disqualification. Do you know, then give me an honorable mention and I'll fire off three right now. Because we said, we said tailgate slash watch party food. That was, we specifically said that, brother.

Come on, don't die on that hill of being like, we didn't say snacks and stuff. You did say snacks. We can run the tape. A drink is not a snack. It can be. Because somebody gives the idea to do

tailgate snacks. So he said, tailgate slash watch party food. I did. Drinks are not snacks. But what's a good tailgate without a drink? Bro, you're too focused on the alcohol. I love what you're doing and you do a great job of it.

You're figuring out of way to stay in the fight. All right, so my tier two. And it always, it's got to be cold weather. It's chili. Chili at a good tailgate in a crock pot, whether it's white chicken chili or just classic chili. Especially when it's like late November and, you know, it's like 40 degrees outside.

It's a little like, you know, your fingers get a little cold. You didn't bring the hand warmers. You get that bowl of chili, and it's just like a little personal heating device that it gets in you. It's great. Number one, riding with G,

it's got to be undefeated Buffalo chicken dip. I love that. You guys for letting me finish that one out. So everybody who's watching right now, say, comment disqualified, Jack's disqualified. And here's what I think we get to do. Let me know if you guys rock.

with this. But since he botched and he's disqualified, we get to put whatever we want on his list. So he can get shamed so he can get shamed on social media. And when it comes out, everybody would be like, you know, Jackslist sucks. Yeah, let's do it.

What do you think about that? I'm in for sure. Love that. We'll think about it afterwards. Just let me know. I'll tell you what, you did a hitter that kind of like You know that drink, dude, if it was in the right circumstance, that drink is special. Shut up. Yeah, turn him down, mute him, mute him.

Hi, Will. Wow. Wow, now we're here. What I'm going to do is I'm going to. I said it's so real. It did. Jackson, whatever he can to get back in this game, for real. So my...

My tier three, I do want to give a special shout out, honorable mention to chili. I thought that was great. We do honorable mentions, gee, we do honorable mentions. But chili's a great. Chili's fucking, chili's fire. Chili is fire with those peanut, with those peanut butter sandwiches. Chili with peanut butter sandwiches. Can I do that?

Sure. All right. Honorable mention. That's true. That's true. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, my tier three, little smokies and I'm crock pot. My tier two, bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers.

Fire. Yes. My tier one, I'm riding. I'm riding with the buffalo chicken dip. I think that shit is fucking, Jack, put your hand down. Buffalo chicken dip. So to recap, Buffalo chicken dip, bacon wrap jalapeno poppers, little smokies, honorable mention chili with peanut butter sandwiches. What a fucking tailgate watchpard.

It's kind of wild at a tailgate. Yeah. What do you mean? Peanut butter sandwich and chili. But for sure, I think you're right there. I was thinking more that would be like watch party. Yeah. But you add a tailgate.

It is different. It is different. It really is different. Because you got more time to prep. Like, you can really go off on a couple dishes. Okay, you want. Ball Star, fun plate. Yeah.

Yeah. More beer. Yes. You don't get drinks at Tailgate. Y'all don't on drinks. The problem, Jack, is we said, tailgate and watch party food. That snacks.

Drinks are not snacks. What's funny is my man tried throwing in end stuff. When I've never said the In-Stuff part. Pull it on the tape. All right. Oh, yeah, bring up the Roeback thing.

Last question of the episode. It is from one of our Twitter followers. What is his name? Love how all the boys are getting shoutouts. Oh, this is from our boy Robbie Fox at Robbie Barstool. Yeah, this is a good question. The robot question is, who is the smartest character on House of Dragon? That is a great question.

Have you guys been watching House of Dragon? I didn't watch this new episode, so if you're going to talk about stuff, I am going to remove myself. I wasn't able to watch it last night. But if you're going to... Okay. Can you do one thing for me? Throw up the characters' names. Those are the only things I got to dial in on.

However, I think there's... The best thing about Thrones and House of Dragon and all this stuff is there's so many, like, there's so much chess being played. but through four episodes, I think that they I think that they took out that they did there, they made a move. Oh, wait, wait.

You don't want to hear this. Yeah, you got to remove yourself. I haven't seen last night. Well, you saw the fourth episode. You can listen, you can listen. Are you talking about five? Yeah, are you talking about the... No, I think, I think them...

I think them cutting the cord with Otto, the hand. I think he was ultimately the smartest. He was playing the best game of chess. that could be played. However, I stand by, uh, Renira being, like, she's the only reason he got nipped because she told her old man, like, you know, you're a fucking, you're a fucking puppet. Because he was all pissed off about her hooking up and potentially, you know, getting after with Damon, Damon. But I think, uh, that's tough. Reneer is the, yeah, Renira's the smartest to me. Like, she's played that, like, and she's young.

like yeah she convinced the king she's a female like operating playing chess in this man's world you know what i'm saying like i think you can't downplay that like it's like extra points extra boost there are some smart motherfuckers out there otto is playing a hell of a game and he made a masterful move before he left and you will obviously see that so he's still going to be working ultimately i think auto might be they banned them they kicked him out but i think that's what you needed to have done you had to take out the smartest player. It's like what, you know, shout out to Robbie, but going off the bar stool,

the most dangerous game, the most dangerous game, like that's why you got to get Tommy Smokes up from the get-go. Like, they let him hang around. Like, he's going to reveal himself. He ended up winning the game. He's won like every game of Barstool. You got to take out the smartest man, no matter if it's out of respect or not,

you got to do that. Reneera did that with that move by convincing her dad that, you know, you're his fucking puppet. Took a shot to the ego. He let him know I'm just now figuring out that's why I put three or four pups in your belly.

Yeah, a wild way to say that. But I think Otto, they eliminated Otto, and I stand by Renera being the smartest, especially in a man's game. She's fucking operating at a high level. Not only at a man's game, but being young too.

Like not even being able to sit at the table. So Renira, Robbie, Renira. And I would love another shot. it being on a game of stools or there's two different throne shows that they have they have that new house of dragon one yeah with uh kFC yeah that was when we got back from that day at nebraska

down bad with the throat wheeling and dealing with the kid at the house I couldn't get on their uh their yeah how they recap the house of dragon I would love to be back on I would love to get a shot at redemption to be on there because I love house of dragon I love the ops that are being played but anyway that is is busts with the boys.
