We have a whole slate of information for you today. We will be talking about AFC championship coming up. We'll be breaking down the divisional games. It is Monday right now while we're shooting this. So we will be talking a little bit about CFB, our final predictions on what are going to happen there. And obviously, the elephant in the room. The elephant in the room. But the elephant in the room.

in the room is everyone should own a Chevy Silverado. We're presented by our good friends at Chevy. Playout reminds us that every, reminds us that every weekend counts. To help you pack more into your weekend, Chevy has packed more into the Silverado

trail boss, more capability, more muscle, more smarts. I thought they were just describing, oh, that's a joke that I didn't read correctly. Tailgates, road trips, DIY projects like transforming an old bus into recording studio, maybe, bring it on. As a Silverado.

Silverado driver myself. I say this all the time to myself when I'm driving. Bring it on. Bring it on. Bring it on. That's because the Silverado Trail Boss has everything you need for anything the weekend calls for with 495 pounds of torque Z 71 suspension and a two inch factory lift. The trail boss has top tier strength and agility paired with the all latest truck tech inside and out. The result is a truck that can do it all. Then show up on Monday. with a story for the ages. So learn more about the Silverado Trail boss at Chevy.com Chevrolet.

Together, let's drive. I'll tell you this, two inches is a lot more than people think. Two inches is a lot more than people think. It's nice and subtle. Yeah. It's more... It's like talking about both sides of what I'm out.

It's more than people think, but it's also subtle. Yeah, and it also gives that little race to a trick that says, oh, I'm a beefcake, dude. Don't you worry about this. Yeah. A big, strong man lives in here. Yeah.

That's what's going on. Also, hey, if we're going to have ads that say Will is going to jump in here there's also going to be a joke that comes in. Let me see it before. I mean, the Will part was in red. Yeah. It says Will.

Yep. I understand that. Maybe I'm colorblind. Maybe I happen to be colorblind. Do you remember in this morning meeting when I said I have two things to go over in the ads and I only went over one thing and I said, maybe there wasn't another thing. This was the thing? That was the thing.

That was the thing. That was the thing. That was the thing. All right. Where do we start? We obviously, we're going to start off the top of the episode. Top of the episode with the Barstil Sports Bus. with the boys.

There's been a lot of speculation about our brand. And, yeah, we're moving on from Barstall Sports. We're going to get into the nuts and bolts. We'll talk about what led us to this. We'll talk about how we went about it. We'll talk about why. Ultimately, we know that there's going to be a lot of people tuned in. There's going to be tier ones.

And by the way, before we start, if you're true to this podcast, make sure you're subscribed. If you're new to this podcast, consider subscribing on the boys. We are a show that brings the locker room to life through content. through conversations, interviews, access we get with our vlogs. Very fun channel that I think you guys will enjoy. So make sure you subscribe. It's a fun time.

It's a good time. But there's going to be a lot of people tuning in. There's going to be tier ones. There's going to be stoolies that have came across bus with the boys throughout the last five years that are rooting for us, that are also sad that we're moving on. There's probably going to be stooleys that are haters that are going to want to see how we're going to fail. A healthy balance of haters and lovers. Yeah.

There's going to be athletes, podcasters tuning in to probably want to understand what's going on in the industry and how we positioned ourselves this way. Maybe Barstool personalities tuning in, thinking about how, wondering how it all unfolded, because we haven't talked about it a whole lot. It's obviously being alluded to based on surviving Barstool. Cat came out the bag last week on the unnamed show with our boy Kirk Minnehan. Kirk Shefter. Kirk Shafter.

Literally you could see it during the thing. Like Dave's like, I really wanted them to say it. Kirk kind of just kept on keeping on, which is great. You know, he's like, you know, but it's out there, right? It's out there. Everyone knows, right? Everyone knows. And you're kind of, it's like you want to be like Kirk.

Like you're way smarter than that. But also we were at the finale of surviving Barstool and talking very openly about it. Yeah. What's funny is Kirk and I, we've texted every day throughout surviving Barstool. And I knew the unnamed show like maybe I'll get called on, maybe not to talk about surviving. And not that dinner, that whole dinner situation. I didn't think you did anything wrong. But I thought, uh, I was thinking to myself that morning.

I should just shoot Kirk tech, a text saying like, hey, we haven't taught. We haven't announced the whole bus. and thing, like, if you can stay away from it. Because Kirk's the only one that's like he would bring it up and not caring, not really considering all the different things. Not maliciously. It's kind of out there. Yeah, not maliciously.

But I did think about doing that. And when I didn't, then he started talking about it, I'm just like, I should have sent him that message. It's a great point of growth, right? Anybody watching the show, if you don't want things to happen, do your best to communicate, right? The more communication, the better. That way things don't get lost in translation.

What do we want to start, dude? Do we want, like, we can start on the surface. What pulled us away from barstool was we had a massive offer. It was a yes. An offer that ultimately we could not say no to. And we wanted to stay with Barstool. Just like when we extended a couple years ago, we wanted to stay with Barstool. Right.

And the conversation going into what could be, you know, out there outside of Barstool or the Barstool itself was we love being a part of the ecosystem. Yeah. We love the guys there with the camaraderie, the locker room vibes. Like Barstool is truly a company. And Dave said on a name show, like people don't want to leave Barstool for a reason. We have, for whatever reason, positioned ourselves to where other people, other, you know, sponsors want to be a part of Boston with the boys in a big way. And the thing was, is going into the negotiations, which kind of started to get kicked up at the tail end of surviving Barstool, was we just, someone would have to truly pull us away from Barstall to walk away. You remember the dinner when I'm sitting there and we're sitting with our agent and everybody else.

And it was like, hey, somebody's going to have to come correct if they want us away. It's not going to be if they out bid, if they outdo this because we love, if nothing else happens, if Taylor and I were on the exact same deal, our life is awesome because we have creative freedom, we have creative control. Dave lets us do whatever we want. We get to mingle with the bar still. We get to mingle inside of the bar still universe. Like it is a job that you just can't mimic out there. And that's what makes them so great. They have so many shows and so many personalities. And you have so much freedom because of somebody like Dave Portnoy at the top. Yeah, absolutely. So yeah, dude, we, I mean, it's really, it's been a very cool experience, right?

Because we were about 10 episodes in, maybe even less than 10 episodes in when Barstall came knocking at her door. Yeah. And essentially, so just about the inception of this podcast, Barstow has really had their name tagged to Bustin with the boy. So it is a bittersweet type of ending, but it has been, I mean, it's been awesome. Yeah. It has, it has really been a special time. It has been, you know, you learn things from a guy like Dave Portnoy, Dan Katz. We were a part of, you know, when we got in, that's when Penn.

got in so we got to see how you know real like big time gambling companies work and then dave doing the whole buyback for one dollar we were part of a lot of cool things that were a part of barstall and we uh we're we're we're just i just feel lucky yeah i feel very humbled by the experience to be able to be a part of a company like barstall for as long as we have been yeah and like you were saying it's like dave called right after the super bowl last year and it's like a year out from negotiation which is pretty rare and he was just like i just want you to know we're going to do everything we can. Like we don't have Saudi money, but we're going to do everything we can to keep you guys. And that happened in like February. And then you fast wore like there were some, you know, he knew we were

going to test the market. He was like, hey, he actually told us to. Yeah, he was like, hey, go out and test the market, but just know, like, we are going to fight to keep you guys as much as we can. And it started to pick up in August during training camp. I want to say we went to maybe Detroit when Dave first, when Dave had the first offer he put towards us. We're able to shop that. And there were offers that we had, but nothing like close or they were in the ballpark of Barstool. And it was still kind of like a no-brainer. Like somebody, again, is going to have to like pull us away from Barstool. And I remember when we got the first big offer.

And ultimately, it was one sponsor that had a bigger offer than what Barstool was able to put together as a whole. And I remember being on the phone with Dave, we were at Oregon for our fall tour stop. You guys were on the trees. Yeah, what a moment, by the way, for us. I remember telling Dave, and I'm like, here's what we have. And he was like, he sounded optimistic. mystic like all right i'm gonna i'm gonna try to talk to people we're gonna see if we can work this out and i remember telling dave like bro please make this easy for us like i know this is a big offer

please make this easy for us you know we love being with you guys like make this easy without telling him hey we'll come back for a hometown discount but also like you're not trying to like give away all that stuff but i want him to know we do want to come back if you can make this competitive like we will still be here and ultimately he couldn't he just couldn't do he couldn't go up that high. I mean, it's like if you think about taking a hometown discount, you're thinking what, a 10 to 20%? If he can get like within that range, then it's probably doable. Like he couldn't get like within 40% and it was tough. It's like we took a couple days. We're sitting there wondering where each other's at. I'm like losing sleepover like fuck. This is like you can't say no to this opportunity because

it's an awesome opportunity. Right. And it is one of those things too where you just kind of brushed over real quick of like we were both in this weird figuring where you were, I was trying to figure out where you were at you were trying to figure out i was out and we kind of have like very surface level conversations and then would figure out that okay right now is not the time to really break all of this down so we kind of walk away from that until we ended up sitting and uh we went to a lunch and on the drive back from a lunch back to the shop we had more of an in-depth conversation about it right and then inevitably had a breakfast a few days later it was actually a day after we teaped will's house so i was walking into yeah that's right because the thing that is very it was

was very uncomfortable for me and Will is like we ended up both being on the same page of where we wanted to go. However, like when if let's say Will and I were not, let's say I want to stay Will, want to go or vice versa, now you get into this. You have two best friends who started a business together who are trying to figure out the ins and outs of like you want to do what's best for the company, do what's best for the friendship, do what's best for everybody involved, especially you guys in the back too. Like we want to do right by everybody that has involved busts with the boys. So it never got to a point where it was like, you know, we're mad or anything like that, but there was difficult conversations that had to take place than for Will and I to truly sit down

and break down all of those things. And to be transparent, too, it's like not that one's been negative and positive, but we've had, we both have different, we have both had different experiences with Barcel. Like, I was signed to Barstle to be exclusive to be on the shows, like the Yak and pro football football show that doesn't. Like, there's been a lot of things that we've embraced throughout all of our time with Barso where I've really embraced. Like I've really enjoyed and done all of it.

I'm not saying you're not. No, but just knowing in those conversations, we've just had different experiences to where it was like, it made it very difficult. Like when they, they was transparent when they were bringing Gruden on. He was like, hey,

you and Gruden, you guys could have a show, all this different stuff. And it just like, ultimately, it just didn't work out because the numbers were so far apart. And it was like, I say you got to do what's best for Bussing.

But if you think about how Bussing started, and think about our own personal journey. If you go back to when we started on that gravel parking lot, we talk about that story all the time. When we were transitioning away from football and in our own minds and our own worlds of transitioning away from football, you want to transition into a job to where you're going to have freedom, like where you're going to have control over your life. We didn't know if we were going to make money doing podcasting. But ultimately the goal was always like, hey, if we could make money doing this, like this would be awesome because we are our own bosses. We wanted to control our IP. We wanted to control our feed.

We wanted to have creative control. And ultimately, we started to build this small base with Buston with the boys like while we were playing. Barstow comes on board. And what an opportunity because they have such a massive audience that fits what we do. And that's bringing the locker room to life. And they do it better as good as anybody out there. And so when we're building Bussin, it was always, hey, our leverage is going to be controlling our IP, owning our IP. And then we'll set ourselves up later.

then as we started to make money and blow it up with Barstool, again, it was the things you start to learn in the business of Barcelona and in that universe is, all right, we had to go from contractors to getting full-time employees. Like we own, we have all of our operation. We operate here in Nashville. We have how many employees, eight, ten guys, full-time employees now. We have our production team. We have everybody in-house.

So where we know sitting back, like this is ultimately going to be leverage down the line if we continue to extend with Barstow or if somebody else comes into the full. So you start to learn all those things But at the birth of it all It was how can we create something to where We're able to make money on it And we control our own lives Your own destiny

Yeah our own destiny We can do whatever we want Because when you leave football Every player, it's a little bit of jadedness I know for myself You want to you're You're like all right Am I going to have to go into coaching right away

Am I going to have to go into the workforce right away You have to do all these different things to where Am I going to find the next roller coaster? Yeah you're wondering about your next Master. Yeah, that football brought us. Yeah. And fortunately, all the stars aligned to where we created Bustin with the boys. And we were getting, we were getting that, like getting the still being in the locker room. We have all these locker room conversations. Still getting to be around a team, just the camaraderie we had. So it all started with the idea of, hey, because I remember when we first sat down,

it's like, hey, if anybody comes and tries to buy us or partner with us, we're going to say no. Right. Because we wanted to like stick it to any man out there. Like if Barstow came, BSP and any of them. We're going to be able to say no because it's like we wanted to grow. We wanted to build something ourselves. Then when Barstow comes on board to partner, it's been such an incredible five years. It's tough to think about it. It's like leaving your college football team.

It's like being with the Titans for nine years. It's about being with Washington for five years. You hate when you have to move on from it because you want that team that bet on you that saw you from the beginning, that loyalty to where they've stayed by you the whole time and help grow you and help build you and help basically put your talents and skills like on a platform. within a team or whatever it is. And then Barstle doing that for Bussin,

it's tough to get away from that. But ultimately, at the end of the day, the incubation of it all was like controlling our IP, controlling everything that we have. And we've positioned ourselves to have this new opportunity, which is an incredible opportunity. I don't want to sit here. We don't want to sit here and make it like,

oh, we're so bummed. We want to Barstle. We are stoked about this next opportunity. We were hopeful being in the bubble of this is who we've been with the entire time. We want them to bet on us in the same way. It's scary to look on the other side of the fence. Yeah, yeah. You never know what's going to happen on the other side.

So a part of you wanted for money, essentially, to not be a factor. So you can kind of stay in your level of comfort zone. Being a part of the ecosystem that you know, you understand, you know how everybody's brain kind of operates. Yep. Like there's a level of a safety blanket there that makes you feel like, all right, I can continue to do this while making X, Y, and Z more. Yeah. Now when you finally, I remember when we finally had the conversation of like, okay, this is what we are going to do as Boston with the boys, we're going to move on from Barstool. Like, once you rip off the band.

of calling Dave having the conversation, all those things. It's like the new level of excitement. It's like, oh, wow, because now it's a whole new game is about to start. A whole new opportunity where what could bust with the boys be in the next three to five years? It's a very exciting opportunity. But yeah, you're right. Like there's there's like a, it's a bittersweet moment for both of those. One thing you brought up that I want to go back to just for a second is like our different our different experiences we have with bust with the boys. So you were, you got the individual offer. Yeah, that was when year 10 was about, you know, we were playing up the year 10 stuff.

But ultimately, conversation with you, it's like, hey, this isn't going to happen. We stood up the gambling show, bet the bus. And from that moment, it's like, all right, there's going to be no opportunity for year 10 or the NFL or anything else. So, yeah, I end up making a deal when they extended us with bus with the boys. They're like, hey, would you be interested in doing an exclusive deal with Barstall sports and do all the gambling stuff? That answer was yes.

That answer was yes. And like you said, I was playing. So with the whole gambling thing where the money was coming from, there was no way for me to really be a part of the exclusivity part. Correct. Which is, I think is for me, at least a positive because at that moment, I think if there was exclusivity was available to me, I probably would have taken that.

But once the knee thing and the football and all that stuff, I saw it coming to a very abrupt end, Dave did approach me. He's like, hey, if you want the same deal as will, we can give you that same deal. For me at that point, I was, I was loving doing this podcast but I was also like

a bit of a wandering eye in the sense of like okay what other experiences of entertainment can I kind of jump into which allowed me to do the thing right earlier in 2024 if I had the exclusivity of Barso I wouldn't able to do that thing

which we'll come out in the next you know a couple of months that we'll be able to talk about it We're not able to say the brand like the overarching I don't think of it I would say no got you because there's stuff starting to get leaked out

about it right now and I'm personally with a microphone of my face all the time I kind of just I'm doing my best to stay away from it. Yeah. But that information will be coming out in the next couple of months. It gave me the opportunity to kind of like see and expand on those things.

So. And dive in with NFL network. NFL network, ESPN, which is smart from just our perspective because we're having our hand in different things because you're non-exclusive. Right. Where I was more tied to the bar still umbrella. So my thought was is try out these other forms of entertainment, whether it be more of a mainstream sports media or just other levels of entertainment.

And that would help broaden the eyes of busing with the boys. And then all the barstool stuff I did, like surviving barstool going on pro football football football show, I was like, well, I'm just going to do that for free because I would like to, I love being a part of barstool. I love going in there. But it was the exclusivity thing for me that I had a hard time with because, you know, you just don't want to be like tied down a whole lot. So you still want to go in, do all the entertainment, have the camaraderie, the streams, all that, the back and forth and the banter without necessarily being like you can only, this is the only house you can kind of go and have a sleep over it. Right. Or you have to ask permission for all the things that you might want to do. So it was it was never for me personally just speaking for myself it was never like I'm not a barstool guy

Will's a barstall guy it was we're both barstall guys and will loves being a part of the ecosystem so much he's okay with kind of having the figurative ball and chain for me it was like I love doing that and it's kind of great for the brand when we're both doing it but there's also a couple other things that maybe I can do that aren't as lucrative from a financial standpoint that I can maybe scratch a niche or find out hey this is kind of cool I enjoy doing this and it's kind of like you know moving around and just feeling those things out because I don't want people to walk away from this podcast being like

Will wanted to stay, Taylor wanted to leave. It was very much we wanted to stay. I was just really interested on what else, what other opportunities were basically out there for us. Yeah, I mean, we were on the same page of the entire time.

Yeah, but it's nice to tell the people that were on the same page of the entire time. Remember how nervous we were when we had to call Dave? Yeah, we sat there in the locker room studio. And literally, I remember Will like hovering his finger above it. And I might just press the ball.

button and we literally had it with a whiteboard like hey these are our notes these are our keys our dues and our don'ts will goes to press the button and he fucking misses and he's like that all right and we took another five 10 minutes let's take a walk let's take a walk let's take a walk and to uh to dave's point when we called him he's like he was he was great about it because you see the dave when he gets pissed off obviously we've caught that we've got that a bunch as much as anybody yeah getting absolutely verbally assaulted by dave but when it came to like this hey this is what we have decided to do with busting with the boys and it happens to not be a barstool guy took it on the chin better than you would expect him to yeah not that he was like excited but he was like

i mean there's a part of him that was like pumped up for us he's like to get this opportunity he's like look you guys you guys have to go do something like this um you know you just wish it would have worked out you do from his standpoint it's like you wish this whole thing happens but this is kind of what happens with barstool you have the alks cooper's the pat maccophies the people who have who have exploded and went beyond Barstool. And he's like, it's just hard to keep up with the way that he wants to do business. Yeah. And Dave, he's like, we're not, I can't, I'm not in a spot where I can overpay for something

and then lose money because then that puts a lot of pressure on people we want to keep in-house. Right. Right. Because, yeah, there's a lot more than just Buston with the boys at Barstool sports. On the name show, I mean, obviously Dave had a lot of nice things to say about Buston with the boys, the fact that he, you know, him saying, and he said this to us right after we shot the finale of surviving Barstool, being like, I've never tried harder to keep talent in my entire time.

Oh, buddy. And I told him, I was like, that's like, Vray and all my ex-coat head coach has just been like, hey, I'm proud of you guys. Right.

And that's like, that was, that was a huge moment. And it's like, uh, you know, there is still a possibility. And it is very much,

just a possibility of us still doing things with Barstool. And it really comes down to their sponsors, our sponsors, if their sponsors are allowed. If our sponsors, well, in the writing of, of us going independent,

all the sponsors will have is we're allowed to be on other shows that have similar sponsors. We just can't promote those things. Right. And so, you know, we brought that up to Dave. We brought it up at Surviving Barstall.

I think I said three or four times to him. We would love to do Survary and Barstool again. That would be an absolute blast. Kirk, after the show was talking about it. Kirk was talking about that on an unnamed show. Witt and Biz, obviously, Big Cat, like,

there's so many great people at Barstool to be able to kind of dip our toe still in that world and be around there because those relationships are going to stay whether you guys see it on camera or not those relationships are still going to be fully intact we've had lots of in-depth conversations we went to a great dinner that you got you and Francis got murdered for but honestly one of the best dinners I think we've had in our five years at barstool yeah it was a great time the vibes

you should have been up to but Dave might be listening it was incredible no it was it was what it was it was amazing and yeah I had actually Dave I had no idea that you were even a possibility of coming. But it was touch and go with a lot of people in that dinner. Yeah. Yeah, that was more of like we're trying to get the entire dinner. Like, hey, should we just combine everybody? A lot of people want to go to dinner.

Should we just not combine everybody? But then we were locked into the reservation. Right. That just made three months in advance. Made it before the... But, yeah, it's like... And I know one thing we're not able to do on the show because, once again, we have a contract to fulfill with Barstool until Super Bowl.

And that's one thing that we plan to do is bust our ass all. the way through the Super Bowl for the bar stool. And it's not fair to our sponsors to talk about what we're doing or what our next steps are and who it's with. But at the end of the day, we are going independent. We'll be exclusive with sponsors, but not exclusive to like a network to ultimately, we are independent.

We can collab with whoever we want to. And we have creative freedom. We have creative control, which is exactly we're busting with the boys. Which is always wanted. From the very beginning, from the jump. And the fact that it's came this way and we're positioned where we are.

It's awesome, man. it is it is fucking awesome again we got guys that are with us in the shop like in our own movie if you're betting with the boys you're winning like we bet on ourselves and we're winning and if you zoom out that's a figurative thing will saying too because if you bet with the boys this weekend on our parlay yeah yeah yeah yeah you lost bad we'll be better we will be better in that regard by the way we bet on the boys and the boys are winning yes and if you zoom out it's like the job that we have and the shit that we get to do and the guys we have at the back of the bus.

You zoom all the way out. We've already won because we're doing something that just, you know. We're blessed, man. We are very fortunate to be in the spot that we're in. I think an important point to make is leaving, like,

as Bustle with the Boys, yes, we might be leaving Barstow, but our goal with every relationship we have, whether it be sponsors or companies, should always be to leave. When we do inevitably leave that company, we leave it better than we found it. And to be a part of Barstow the way we has,

I think we added a lot to Barstool. We did the most, again, especially yourself being a part of the dozen, Pro Football Football Show, all those things. You added an element to Barstle that elevated Barstool. And Bustle with the boys held Barstall. Barstle helped us to be able to walk away from a relationship with a smile on her face

instead of tears in her eyes is a very special thing that not a lot of people. You like that little boy? You like that little boy? Yeah, I like that. A lot of people like when they leave companies, that is not necessarily how the breakups go. Like they're not you know, a lot of times there's anger or people feel they've been mistreated in some sort of way, and I'm sure it's on both sides.

At least for us, I have not one bad thing to say about Barstow sports. Zero. Incredible company. The way they've done it, they've done it against the grain, their entire lives, and it continues to succeed, and that is awesome. And you never know. After we do our thing, you just never know. You never know, dude.

You never know. I'm a little nervous about that, never know, because if we do ever go back to Barstow, let's say in five years, 10 years, whatever it is, Dave however it worked out Dave is going to position that is look at him come crawling back Look at him come crawling back I will say

In the next three to five years We've got to get Dave somehow I don't know how it's going to look We've got to get his ass though The way he got us in surviving barstool Is incredible by the way That's over now Do we feel like Ria should have won?

It's tough Do we want to turn the page or do we want to stay Do you guys want to say anything about leaving Barstool? I don't want to just switch over to a new subject without getting everybody an opportunity. Do you guys have any questions? Sherman, you've been here the least amount of time. Go ahead. Okay.

So least amount of time, I have several questions. I'm very confused. No, I got some frequently asked questions on the internet from stoolies, from tier ones, people that just want some clarification. The first one that I was saying is, are you guys going to be bringing the people in the back of the bus along with you? Are we Barstool employees? Are we your employees? You guys are busting with the boys' employees.

Are you just learning that? I'm just teasing. I'm teasing. No, I did know. That was like, it's like, you talk about how you get to this point, how we're positioned where we are. Like along the way, you realize, like, you know,

during the second negotiation with Barstall, when we extended, there was a conversation out there like, hey, we can make your guys Barstool employees. And then you guys, you guys could just take them if we were to ever break up. And my response was like, no, I would love for them to just be busts with the boys' employees. So having everybody in house and being able to operate, being able to operate independently

if a hard breakup ever did happen in the middle of it, in the middle of chaos, it's like we would have everybody in house with us to kind of operate on our own if that had ever happened. So for clarification, for everybody asking that question, yes, everybody that works with bus with the boys, they are busts with the boys employees. They get benefits. We treat them well. that might be debatable if you give Mitch the microphone. No, we get treated well.

The other question is, is our shop like this studio, are we going to have to move? Is this Barstals? Like, what all is going to change show-wise? Are we still going to have the same structure of the locker room, busing with the boys, fall and spring tour? Nothing changes. Like, everything in Nashville, we own. This bus is ours. The equipment's ours.

Like, we own everything. that nothing is going to change. We're going to keep the programming the same unless we decide ourselves and we're going to change the programming. So like Will, we'll comment it on, I've commented on, we have complete creative freedom,

we have the ability to do what we want. This is our show. This show is going to stay the same show. It'll always be Bustin with the Boys. The shop and everything you know about Bust with the boys is remaining intact. When you watch this content, it'll look the exact same.

And shout out to Barstool because the creative freedom that they did allow you guys and bustling with the boys, it allowed you guys to be able to build this apparatus and kind of build the structure. So it really is cool that they are really kind of sending y'all off and launching y'all in a sense.

It's a good point. Barstool, when we first started, I think they were kind of pressing us about coming to New York or going to Chicago when Chicago happened because Dave's point was, is like, people who are like independent or like away from HQ a lot of times does not work out.

So that's, you know, a tip of the cap to Barstool for trusting us with the, with creative freedom to allow us to make, do what we're doing. It's tip of the cap to you guys, making the content great to us traveling around doing stuff and keeping, you know, our foot on the pedal every single day about getting more content done and doing more stuff. So, yeah, there's a lot of good factors there, especially Barstow letting us kind of stay in-house. And that was it for your questions asked on the internet.

All right. Do you guys in the back have any questions or thoughts? question for y'all what's the thing you'll miss most about being under the barstall shield it's just like leaving ball man it's the camaraderie yeah you know there are still ongoing conversations for potentials of that in the barstall world but definitely yeah it's the locker room it's all the relationships like there's so many relationships people on camera people behind the camera going in a barstile hc and kaitland walker and page and just embracing everybody that's there.

Like, there's a lot of good people over at Barstool. And so that's, that's definitely what we will miss the most. Yeah, it's a locker room. It's a story. Like, you see the storylines of the internet. And then the next day you're in Chicago and you're just feeling all of those things happen in real time being around, being around everybody. And the people in the behind the camera too, awesome, awesome squad.

So there's more than just in front of the camera there. Can we speed run a tier talk real quick, best or top three barstool employees from y'all's personal experience? Oh, my God. He's going to put us on the spot. Go. Yeah, I got like six in my head that came up. We could do that or you can do least favorites.

So your choice. I mean, favorites? I don't want to hurt people's feelings. Right. Because I do. I enjoy so many people in the Barstow world. I really do. We can just give out.

We can just give shoutouts if you want. But then when you do that, then it's like, what if we leave somebody off the list? True. All right. Lease fair, a little sass. Onward. No, I fuck a little sass. do you want to

it's a scary it's a scary I don't want to go down because I again I've enjoyed I have I have content who's number one who's your favorite

number one favorite yeah dude it's so I got three that are my favorites yeah I know but it's like I don't want to

I feel like your favorite and your least favorite is probably Dave for sure he's both yeah no he's so that takes

some of the pain for somebody else that maybe could have been last. Nicky Clicky's up there for your boy. Nick Tarani. Big shots of Nick Torani.

I love Nick. Nick, you're number three. Hey. What about Roan, though? I know. Roan, Francis, Witt. Biz. Like.

Kirk. Kirk? Well, maybe for you. Yeah. I actually fuck with Kirk a lot, but just the line to my face. Even after we were eliminated. Five starters, five bench players. The roster, basketball roster.

I mean, yeah, if you're going five stars, you got to go, Witt, Big Cat, Dave, Kirk. Biz? Yeah, but as far as, like, mingling around the entire time, like, Biz, Biz is off doing his own thing. I love Biz, love biz. Nah, I'm putting Biz in my start in five. That boy was a rider in surviving. Was a rider. You got one spot left, Will, on your starters.

Probably Jerry. Love Jerry. So, repeat him real quick? Dave, Witt, Kirk, Big Cat. and Jerry. Starters. My bench players who we have on the roster?

Yeah. Tarani. I like Mark Titus. Francis. Rohn. I said, yeah, I said Tarani. Stephen Shade make your team? I like Stephen Cheape, man.

He's... Che and I've had a bunch of good conversations. Gurdon? Uh... I still am about biz. I feel like we're missing somebody. I know. That's what I'm trying to, like, think through it all.

It's like I love KB. Fights. Fights. Oh man, if I would have forgot fights. Yeah. Yeah, that would have been bad. The booze ponies. Dana Beers, love Dana Beers.

Doesn't make the cut. Love Dana Beers. Jeff D. Lowe. Just a good squad, dude. Yeah. All right, Taylor. I mean, mine would be wit, biz,

Dave, Rohn. Maybe a reasoncy bias, but Francis. I think a reason's bias in a Bayway office of the podcast and then the dinner. Stu. Stu. Rico is not in my phone.

Rico is not in my top ten. Let Taylor do it. Let Taylor do it. I do like Rico. I just think he's such a fucking puppet. He is, but you gotta love him. You gotta love him for who he is, man. The text you showed me of him trying to come at you and then you being like, no and here's why.

I'm just saying, fair. You realize I wanted you out of the game. Just crazy. Yeah, fair, fair. shout out the rioters yeah yeah uh

probably spending the most like a lot of time with him jerry nick nick and I went through a phase all of last year texting each other every Wednesday hope you had a great week or have a good rest of the week

how many of I have now that's like seven but stew stew yeah stew's in there stew is just just a vibrant personality. But I feel like I would never go on a trip with Stu.

I think a long three day weekend with Stu would be a little too much for me. Taylor, what about Chef Donnie? Dude, Chef Donnie. Thank you for that. Thank you for that, Garrett. Yes. Briggs?

There's a place for Brandon Walker. There's a place for Brandon Walker. I love Brandon Walker. Yeah, the bottom of the list. Yeah. You got Kate, Zah. Marty Mush Keegs

Casey Casey's a sweetheart I mean I like Megan You're good bro I know I'm just thinking of more names now Like I just there's so many people that I've enjoyed Yeah Caleb Caleb was solid

He said moops Yeah I think I got 10 right Yeah Tommy Tommy smokes No I do love Tommy Yeah. We feel good? That was tough.

Good for you. Were you done with that? It's tough. Shout out of you guys putting us in that spot. I would never rank the people. How about for you guys? What would you be your certain five? Fasoli.

Tom, Tom Lee. Tom Lee. Shout out Tom Lee. Segal. Nick Mulcahy. Nick. Yeah. Just production.

Yeah. Spiders. Spiders. Spiders are, Spiders are favorite talent. Fuck. You large is fun. Hard to us. Well, moving away from ranking, what about like best memories from like a single trip or like a day or a shoot? Could be like the case race type stuff. You'll have like where you're like, this is Barstool.

Like this is what I imagined when we sign with Barstrel being a part of. Winning surviving season three. 100 grand. Case race with. the act that first case race was Shane and then even though Michigan boat race is in Nebraska but when we did the college

football show and we were at and just yelling back and forth yeah March Madden's betting last year was fun even though I lost my ass and everything but doing surviving is probably you just see all the relationships you see everybody's like kind of tips

they have under the radar too that they kind of just open up and you see everyone kind of just getting in a packman mentality of hating one person or loving one person. I love that. Camp Barstool. Camp Barstool would be up there, but that's so recent. The dinner, the dinner in the live show we did in Nebraska.

Yeah, with Dave, the 45 minutes. That was so much fun. I'm over on the Super Bowl. Not last year, but the year before in Arizona. Yeah, that was awesome. Yeah, that was fun, where they had the content house going. Yeah, that was, I think that was peak. Jeffrey Star.

Yeah, Jeffrey Star. But yeah, those. You had a case race too. Yeah, that was, it wasn't really a case race. It was like a jungle juice race. Just got absolutely, they got the sheet pulled out from under me. They had filling skittles and nerds and shit in that. Shit was delicious.

Yeah. I was fucked up. You don't have to make a list, but maybe your favorite and least favorite stooly burner on Twitter. I don't know. Oh. You'd be the answer. You'd be the answer for both of those for me.

I would, I would be the answer. What's your favorite stooly burner, Sherm? What's your answer to me, Joe Fats? Is he a burner? That's not a burner. He's just like a guy. He's a stooly burner. But it's his identity on his Twitter.

That's not a burner. All right. All right. Will's bulge. Will's bulge. Do we know who that is? You guys know who that is. It's got to be him.

It's not me. That wasn't convincing at all. That's definitely. Oh, I got one more. Ohio State Michigan last year in Ann Arbor with Dave and Bigger. Yeah. That was a fucking moment. That was awesome.

That's right. I think I was the only one that was with you. Yeah, which was you and me. Yeah. You could see how much Mitch didn't care that Ohio State lost, too. It was so irrelevant to him. He was like, oh, that's awesome, dude, congrats. No, I was in the, when we were in the house, I had, like, my red on underneath my stuff.

Yeah, you had stuff on. I'm saying your emotional attitude at the end of the game. Was not of a fan. Yeah. I did not want Dave to turn his sights onto me because I would have been fucked. He had a lot of deal with Big F. You forgot to mention PFT. Fuck.

Because, hey, PFT and shout off. This is brutal. Hank. Max. Hank. Ria. Yeah, yeah, not top 10, but like still, you mess with them dudes, yeah.

I do have my least favorite burner. A huge shout out to Asphalt Mercenary. Change your profile to your name. Let it be known. Or open up your DMs. You're a fucking coward. I want to talk. I see you in everybody's mentions, talking shit.

Just open up those DMs. Let's have a chat. Asphalt Mercenary. How's Ohio? How's Ohio, buddy? We got friends. Do you guys feel good? You feel good?

A. Also, if you guys have questions, put them in the comments. If we see a bunch of common ones, we can re-hit it next week in the intro. Yeah, because we're trying to hit everything. Yeah. Moment of silence. Bustle with the boys living Barstool Sports. Thank you, Barstool.

Round of applause. A round of applause. Right of applause. Nice. Playoff football? Playoff football. Playoff football, dude. Let's get into the nitty-gritty.

Commanders are in the NFC championship. What's up? What you got, Sharm? We actually have a very important announcement that I'm pulling up. We totally forgot to do this. Sorry, guys. Important announcement is... Come on, we're losing people.

Are those your two teams to go to the Super Bowl? No, I want Bills and Commanders. Who would you want to that? Commanders.

Okay. Commanders. All right. Dude, imagine Washington went in the Super Bowl this year. After all the shit that they've been in, the last however many years. Selling the team, all the scandals going on, how bad they've been. They haven't been to a playoff game since 2015? Yeah, it's like a new organization, new staff, new play.

players. Like it's, what they've done in one year is nothing short of incredible. No rookie has gone on the Super Bowl. Is that a real stat? And Jane Daniels is so good. Smooth. Boy, he's confident, all of it. The journey of Dan Quinn, like he was hated in Atlanta. And everybody was like, this dude is not a head coach. He's only a defensive coordinator. Seattle's the only good thing he did. And then now took the commanders to conference championship.

And they love him. Backward hat, Dan. The couple connections I still have inside the building of Washington, they love Dan Quinn. Like from chefs to the cleaning ladies, everybody loves him. And the great thing, it's like I'm so, I'm so happy for those people in that building because when you win in the playoffs,

like you get bonus checks, like you get playoff checks. And so my boy Chad Englehart, who's been a strength coach there, he's been with that organization for 14 or 15 years, for him to taste what like the chiefs get every year inside that building. The Patriots what they got for their strength staff. Like the people that work in the facility also get bonus checks for advancing in the playoffs. So it's, I'm so fired up for the Washington commanders right now. The fact that they've made it to this point, like upsetting, arguably the best team in the NFL and the Detroit Lions at Detroit.

Yes. Is that all the way down to like equipment staff as well? I think everybody gets a bonus. I think equipment staff, yeah. Training staff. The equipment staff, if the commanders are doing it correctly, the equipment staff should have gotten taken care of by the players. Because they usually do Christmas bonuses.

Christmas bonuses. They should, and usually the equipment staff and the trainers kind of get the most of that. Strength staff, yeah. This is crazy for Jayden Daniels. This is from Kyle Brandt. Rookie QBs to start a title game and where their team scoring defense is ranked. Brock Purdy first, Mark Sanchez, third,

Joe Flacko third, Roplasberger first, Sean King, third, Jane Daniels, 18th. Yeah, man. Just crazy. And that defense turned it on when it came to turn over yesterday. In a big way. In a big way. God.

Just had no fear, bro. They really didn't. The Lions had so many weapons on the field. Gibbs was going all over the place. It was unbelievable. Yeah. It was incredible to watch. And dude, the poise of Jane and Daniels,

I just touched on it a little bit. But the dude, to be in the position he is as a rookie, learning a little bit about a story, being at ASU, he transfers to LSU, wins the Heism, but when he's transferring out of ASU, that viral video that took place, like, yeah, fuck you, get out of here, you piece of shit. Yeah, all that.

All that. Yeah, and he has just handled business. No one really talked about him in the draft. Yeah, he's taking really high, but, like, there was Caleb Williams draft. Nobody was really thinking about Jane Daniels. He was an afterthought, and for him to take these guys to the NFC Championship and not only take a team to NFC championship,

but take a team that has been struggling. and hurting for so long from the top down is as cool as it gets. They haven't been to an NFC championship in 33 years. I think Russ Grimm was on the football team when they went to a championship. How nuts is that? Shout at Russ Grimm, by the way, one of the greatest coaches I've ever had in my entire life. Dan Orlovsky called it too. They resurfaced the video before he was like, if I'm the Chicago Bears, I would look at

Jaden Daniels. Yeah, I saw that. And here we are. I bet the Chicago Bears do want Jaden Daniels. And you just see him sitting on the sideline too It just looks like there's ice in his veins Like as he's calmly sitting there Because again you're up on Detroit

I think they're up 10 on them at halftime And you're sitting there like okay Detroit's probably gonna come back Even when there's five or four minutes left in the game And they're down by two scores You're thinking all right how is Detroit gonna make this happen? Even the announcers when they were talking about They're like you gotta feel like times They're running out just a little bit for the Lions

And you're thinking any other football team You're like they're done They're dead it's over It's over but truly no one believe The Lions are going to lose that game Into the clock struck zero Yeah it is nuts man And as happy as I am for Washington, I felt terrible for Detroit.

Especially that woman that showed us around in Detroit. Yeah. You just know the fans. You know Dan Campbell. They have a great staff. They have players. They have leaders. They have culture.

They have everything that was ready to go to the Super Bowl. And Jared Goff is such a great dude, too, obviously having him on the show and the game he played yesterday. You know, he's just kicking himself for all of that, dude. It's just, it's tough. It is. And then, you know, I mean, who knows what's going to happen in the lines of this? People are saying Ben Johnson.

is as good as gone. Aaron Glenn. Ben Johnson, they've been doing interviews for head coaching jobs. So they could be gone. You just don't know, like, man,

when you get to the playoffs, like these opportunities are so, it's so massive to take advantage of. And Washington is dangerous, bro. They are dangerous. But the thing that scares me a little bit is that defense being 18th. They're playing with their hair on fire right now,

but it is nuts what Jay and Daniels is able to accomplish with the defense. That is not in the top 10, top five of the NFL. That's what you usually see. But you know it, bro. Like, make it to the NFC championship

whether or not you were a bottom-tiered defense throughout most of the year like catching some fire in the playoffs like having no fear going out there and taking down the lions beating the bucks who everybody picked the bucks beating the lions everybody picked the lions like you're sitting there you just have a boulder on your shoulder you're like you're ready to go you're like anywhere any place anytime and you're in a brand new week

where everyone's going to be picking the Eagles and it's like you just continued to be the underdog after just being the best team in the NFL by two scores just I hope it happens for him yeah I think they can take down the Eagles, bro. To me, the Eagles are clearly the better team than the Rams. Rams had some life.

They could have upset them, like, all that stuff. That weather really, I think that weather really big. Yeah, but you know Washington was sitting there before the game, wanting the Eagles to win because you know they're like, we want the fucking Eagles in the NFC championship. Absolutely. We want the indivision rivalry in the NFC championship. Give us the best team.

Give us the best team. Last crazy Jaden Daniels stat, in NFL history, there has been three, instances of teams having zero turnovers and zero punts in a game behind a rookie starting QB. All three were by Jaden Daniels. He did it in a week two, week three, and then last night. Golly

man. No turnovers, no punts. Special. Cliff Kingsbury, him as the O.C., they, like those two were just made for each other. Dude, had a little time off with the car, went to the Cardinals, had a little time off in Taiwan for a little bit, took himself a year, a year and a half, now he's back. Yeah. Rejuvenated, back in the style. I probably took some

ayahuasca. Probably decided to go to going a little bit of a journey of his own. But having a guy like Kingsbury who understands that type of offense to put Jane Daniels in, it's perfect, dude. And the way they're utilizing Austin Echler, too. Like he was awesome. I had him in one of my parlayes. He had to be over 25 yards receiving.

The first drive, he catches a screen or like one of those little toss-out bubble passes for 24 yards. And they just, he does, Jane Daniels does an incredible job looking at the defense, looking at his first read, his second read, finding the checkdown, getting out of harm's way, not taking insane hits. He's not as great as Lamar's in that sense.

We saw in the game against the bucks. But the kid just has his fucking, he's got his wits about him. He just understands it. You would love to see it. You would love to see them go all the way. They have the right mix of vets. You were talking to Echler,

you got Erch, you got Bobby Wagner. Yeah, Bobby Wagner. Scary Terry. Who was a menace, also. Yeah. My one buddy said that when, like, Jaden Daniels is what Cliff Kingsbury wanted Kyler Murray to be when he drafted him in Arizona. Well, for sure.

I mean, look at Jaden Daniels, bro. Yeah. But like they're kind of similar in like what they can do, but Jaden Daniels is just like, cool, calm, and collected. God, I hope Jadden can sustain this type of success. That would be so elite because I would hate it for Washington fans. If something horrible were to happen, we're not even going to go into the details of it, but the history essentially repeating itself would suck.

Yeah. Would be shitty. But if you're in that building and you got number five, Jane Daniels in there, you got to be feeling good about staying put with your family for the next decade. Yeah. You know what I mean? You're going home to your family being like, go ahead.

Yep. We'll buy that house actually because we're going to be here. Yeah, we have a quarterback. Yeah. If you have a quarterback, you're solid. Yeah. Ladies gentlemen, we'll interrupt this episode real quick to bring you men's whole body deal.

Very beautiful. As you prepare to host, If you prepare to host game day celebrations, what are some of those whole body odor-related issues you may encounter that make you feel a little less confident in your hosting duties. You're afraid to take your shoes off while entering your friend's house. Getting nervous, your team is down at halftime. That type of thing. You know, you'll perspire.

Exciting things happen during the game. What happens? Little sweat glands start to open up, maybe a little more sneaky than you'd like to be. Tackle whole-body odor with dove men plus care whole-body deal. This is a Whole Body Deo. It defends against all of your body zones from pits to privates to feet. It's like the old school head, shoulders, knees, and toes. Pits, privates, and feet.

Defend against your, well, it's long-lasting with 72-hour odor protection. You can find Dove Men Whole Body Deo at Walmart today. Let's get back to that episode. I did see, I don't know who was talking about this. I'll have to remember it and then maybe tweeted out later because I don't want to take someone's information, but they were talking about all the vacant head coaching jobs. And the best one was the Patriots.

Having a guy like Drake May, you think you got a guy in that. Mike Rabel obviously gets that job. He was the best candidate. And that was essentially the best team to kind of take over that instance. The other teams that are vacant right now, the bears can't find a way to win. The Jets are having a hard time. The Raiders, yeah, the Raiders have an owner that has been reported that he like yells at assistant coaches on the plane. Like very, very short term.

Yeah. very impatient. The New Orleans Saints, you don't know what's really going on there. The Cowboys, it's like the offensive line is a little bit older. Dak Prescott is he who like, you know, are the haters kind of right in that instance right now, Jacksonville? It's a really tough place to go and try to revamp a franchise with these teams being your choice if you're a head coach candidate or a top head coach candidate like Ben Johnson. There might be a world if I'm Ben Johnson being like there might be better head coaching opportunities next year.

and you know you've got a hell of an offense coming back for you in the Lions. Why not just stay one more year? Why not stay and when a great opportunity? Because once you get a head coaching job, you can, obviously you can revive it. Like Vrabel did a great job with that for a while. Was it McDermott and the Bills?

He did a great job with that. But very rarely you see a head coach come into a struggling franchise and be able to turn it around. Why not wait for maybe a historic, you know, franchise to kind of have a little bit of a turnover, like a Matt Lafleur did. when he had the Packers with Aaron Rogers.

If Steelers did the same thing next year, if the Steelers go out. The Steelers, they're in our position because the Steelers are kind of only doing this. They're kind of on that downslide right now where we could see them not making the playoffs next year, that division's stronger. You might live in a place as one of the OCs for Ben Johnson looking at a team like the Bengals where that vacancy might be there if it continues to have those struggles. You don't make the playoffs. And you got a guy like Joe Burrow, who his only real knock is the injuries that have taken place for

Yeah. So there's a nice little, a couple of maybes ripping around. Maybe you stay is what I'm saying, Ben. You saw the local boy Eddie George. He interviewed for the Bears job. Yeah, the Bears are kind of interviewing like everybody right now. They had one hand. They wanted to with Marcus Freeman.

There was rumors of them trading for Mike Tomlin. Bears are probably trying to do everything. Dude, I would love to see, I'll just say this. I would love to see Dion Sanders be the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. That would be awesome. I would love it. That would be a very Cowboys thing to do as well. Like, of all the franchises, that is where you see that happened.

I mean, you think about it, too. He had all his success. He had a lot of his successes with the Cowboys, also the 49ers. But even Atlanta, can't sleep on Atlanta. Can't sleep on Atlanta. Going back to Dallas, Dion going back to Dallas, you got Vrable going to the Patriots. You have all these old players kind of coaching their old teams. That's awesome.

That would be sick. That would be awesome to see. Dion Sanders with Jerry Jones. I was just about to say, his personality type is maybe the only one that could really kind of stand up to Jerry. That or blow up in six months. Or it might be the only time Jerry turns around and fires a coach earlier instead of late.

But Jerry does love him. I mean, obviously for the past, but he personally does love Dion. So maybe it, you know, match made. Right, like a personality like that, Dion would be the only guy that Jerry would consider because they know each other so well. That one would be sick.

A lot of interesting things happening. A lot. How about the Eagles and Rams? How about that snow? we were just talking about the commanders. They're playing the Eagles next week. Like that snow game, dude,

all the football, all the football games this weekend with the cold weather outside of Detroit. But just having the elements kind of affect the game because it did for the Eagles. I mean, their defense kind of bailed them out

in a lot of situations. A lot of situations. Sequant Barclay's a fucking menace, bro. A menace. Jalen Carter. Zach Bonn? Dude, the one series Zach Bonn had

was maybe the greatest series, for a linebacker. And he had that TFL and then tip the pass. Then he'd think he got a sack next. It's just crazy, dude. Did I see Jared, Jalen Carter went up to Jared Verse before the game? And then obviously he was like trying to bet on the game.

Yeah, put your check on it. And you just hear a verse, but I'll keep that 77 for next week. I'm like Dave, but yeah, Jalen Carter. Versus going off too. Yeah, I mean, he played a lot of plays. Jalen Carter is really him. You cannot block him one-on-one.

Yeah. I mean, they put up a nice little stat, I think, on like 15 pass snaps. When they slid to him, no pressures, they had a double team on him. They had a center guard on him. On the eight snaps he had where he was one-on-one, he had a sack, like three pressures and a couple of hits. Like he is one of those guys. It's like, we have a big problem here. And verse as well, I mean, he only had, what, four and a half sacks this year,

but the guy is the way he operates on the field. He is going to do this. Khalil Mack. How many stacks did he have his rookie year for the Raiders? four and a half They have them winning the defensive rookie of the year Yeah I mean he's stunned

And then AJ Brown He might actually be locked in You saw what whip he pulled up in Yeah the Chevy Honda Accord Yeah the Honda Accord He might be locked in What's the name of the book?

Inter excellence You see the guy walking out holding the flag He was holding the book in the air Inter excellence He was holding the book with it Those sales you know are through the roof And Gilly. The Rams, bro.

You got to think if the weather is a little more clear, the Rams might win that game. There's so many plays where the ball is bouncing off guys' hands, bouncing off their chest. Pukua went off the top of my head. It was like a third and eight. Gets great separation on an out right at the sideline through his hands, bounce off the ground.

It's just you got to be punching the air right now. And Sean McVeigh, dude, they're coaching. Because from a talent standpoint, you're looking at Eagles. Eagles are up here. Rams are kind of down here. they're missing, you know, Eagles might be missing one guy if they don't do it this year. Rams are missing four or five guys to really be like, okay, this is a talented roster that you can win a Super Bowl with.

The coaching and the understanding, and then obviously Matthew Stafford, those are the two things, the two keys that kept them in this game. And if the weather was clear, we could be looking at Rams commanders in the NFC championship. But that run game, the thing that kind of threw me off a little bit was with the weather the way it was, they had two, explosive plays early in the game and then the Rams kind of showed up in a big way. They started to get more exotic with their blitzes. They started to only rush three or four, not bringing blitzes sometimes. They were less predictable in their calling. And the Eagles kind of couldn't figure it out from a rushing standpoint.

Yeah, and then Kyron had that. Takes the safety. Hertz gets hurt in the middle of it. So there's like a lot of different variables that the snow helped them out a lot with. But even that first game, too, it's like once you get to that second half, the Eagles have such a roster for the second half. They can lean on you. They run the ball more effectively in the second half.

Right. Do you see the picture of Lane Johnson? I don't know. So Lane Johnson had a photo of stats, side-by-side stats between him and Penae Soule. Because Penae Soule got first team all right tackle. And it was like, I mean the stats, if they are correct, were completely lopsided towards Lane Johnson.

Oh, really? You have to pull it up because I don't want to butcher it, but it was like passer win rate sacks giving up pressures run blocking all these things yeah sacks allowed lane jonson zero pinay one pressures allowed six for lane 25 for pinay quarterback hits one to five it's just all these stats are in the favor of lane johnson and you see this like that's that is the ultimate athlete that's that michael jordan type of mentality or something doesn't go your way it's like fuck it i'm taking this i'm taking this personal yeah yeah because the lines like There is a lot of, like, bias towards teams that are surging and have a lot of the media behind them.

You look at 2016 with the Titans. We were two in 14 and 14, three and 13. And then 2016, we go nine and seven. Kind of have that surge of success. We had nine guys make the Pro Bowl. Your boy was included. So maybe I got myself a little bump there. Maybe I wasn't as good as people thought.

But we got it, right? So it is, you know, it'll be interesting to see that play out for Lane and have to talk about it a little bit. I'd love to get on the show and talk about that. Yeah. Yeah. How often would Seekwan, like, calling his run. Do y'all have any, obviously you have your Medenberger story, but like, how often do guys go out there and be like on defense like, hey, I'm about to get a turnover of this

series or like I'm about to go for a tug right here. Does it happen that often? Probably happens more series than not. It's when it actually happens like, oh, fuck, they called it, you know? Because there's always a guy, it's like, watch we get a pick right here. And it's like, they score a touchdown, you know. I'm about to get a sack. I'm about to get a sack. And it's like, all right, well, you were hemmed up for a minute, weren't you buddy? But being able to call your shot. Just keep calling shot. That's a good lesson. every series go out and call your shot and then what it happens you'd be like

I'll legitimate him He did say that Yeah he said it out loud Yeah He said it also the other 15 series But it's all good That rug is so electric Dude

His fall off is unreal Injuries Yeah I mean you get the injuries And Mitch Carzzi not used the mic Mitch is asking about Cooper Cup What happened His falloff is unreal His words not mine

Yeah I mean He was the triple crown winner What two or three years ago And now I think last time you only had one reception Game before that he maybe had two Fixed his teeth. Well, no, I mean, they're trying to get Pooka the ball more than you.

I was going to say in the surgeons of Puka. I mean, the Eagles D.Bs are strapped up ready to go. Like, they're challenging guys. They're breaking up plays. The snow obviously is a factor. But I'm saying you could have them too as like a dynamic duo like J.Marr Lj. Brown, Devonte Smith. But they're not even really trying to get him the ball, it seems like.

Yeah, I don't know. Yeah. It's a great question. Great question. Super Cup coming to the Titans, right? I mean, shit. Let's get them over here. You're not feeling the love over there?

Come on, Bub. Come over to Nashville. Should we talk about this iconic AFC matchup that we're getting again? Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, written in the stars. God loves football. God loves football.

Do you want to talk about that matchup, but you want to talk about those games? We can talk about the games. Dude, I cannot believe. I cannot believe the Bill's got the Ravens, man. I know. I mean, I can believe it, but I just, you know,

it was in such a fashion with the Ravens and the playoffs and Mark Andrews suicide watch. I feel so bad for Mark Andrews, man, because he's a good player. He's a great player. Fantastic player. But that two point, man. Can't imagine what some of those Ravens fans are in his DM saying. Oh, bro.

Horrible things because people are so quickly to forget how much he's done for the franchise. It's brutal. Just brutal, man. And if you feel for Derek, he was moving, groving. Lamar had a couple of playoff Lamar plays. Yeah. That kind of bit him in the ass. Who's the other racetrack for Baltimore?

Justice Hill. Justice Hill was having a game, bro. Yeah. I'll tell you what, that Derek Henry anytime touchdown.

I've got to get LASIC. watching you read that i was like falling along with you but i was a such i i i'd have to lean up it's a rezi 25 resi yeah 2025 resi got to get that locked in but yeah i yeah i yeah the ravens been you're sick for him because you really thought in the stat we had

at locker room 28 years old 12 years apart dilford flaco lamar might be a good omen yeah might be a good omen yeah might be a good omen because now next year you can win it and you're shaking it up you don't know a 12 years josh allen's inevitable man like they were It seems like Patchmore Holmes is inevitable. The refs are inevitable. Dude, think about it. You watch that game. You know some of those, those play calls were crazy.

When it was third in eight or third and 11, and they get a roughing the passer call, and it was so clear where the commentators are talking about, the rule guy comes on and he's saying, this is ridiculous, that should not be a call. There was such a light shined on the calls in favor of the chiefs in this game that might have been the equalizer for this AFC championship.

You know, sometimes you see the NFL and they'll have like a new rule that they put in place for that year so that in all of a sudden, like the first four weeks, the games are kind of ruined because of that rule. I feel like such a light has been shined on the chiefs and the rules that,

the flags that go in their favor, we might see a nice little script flipped going into this AST championship. We might see it. Maybe. I mean, they got two calls that series. Like when they hit Patrick Mahomes

and he was kind of like, you know, he's kind of running around a little bit, playing it slow and then drops down. They don't even really hit him that hard. And then they get another roughing or a personal foul. The hip drop tackle on the Texans tight end. Just crazy.

They don't get that call early in the game. I didn't see some comments that. Only one was called like in week six or something like that has kind of like gone away. Yeah. That call. But still that is clearly a hip drop tackle. Yeah. Hip drop tackle.

It is clearly a flag, a penalty. Troy Aikman came out. He was being pretty clear about the way Patchma Home is kind of the way he gets out of bounds. And I saw PMT talking about a little bit. They're saying, you're saying essentially they're saying pat is too good to be doing some gimmicky shit like that personally i disagree he winds a lot though bro dude there's one time where he got a couple calls and he's yelling at the us throw the flag it's like dog you get every flag he gets every flag the thing

here's my thought on me running out of bounds thing this is of rabbleism good teams know the rules great teams use the rules to their advantage yeah if you are living in a world where it is so difficult to put your hands on the quarterback without getting a flag if you're a quarterback and you're in these crunch time games, use every single angle, use every single, every single, every single thing you can take, every little 1% to get the benefit of the doubt call. What they need to do from a league standpoint is make it more cut and dry, black and white. They talked about using instant replay for some of these calls like the roughing the passer. You can also use it in a big way for guys getting out of bounds.

So integrate that rule. Even for face masks, there's a couple that. Rule is implemented, though. The home just always gets the call. Yeah, I mean, if I'm a Holmes, I'm not changing a thing. You are knocking on the door of having a three-pe. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're not changing a thing, bro.

No, I mean, him himself, he's doing it right. It's just fans watching. You're just, you just want to pull your hair out of your head. So what people hit LeBron, right? He's always flopping. 6-7, 260 pounds of just pure American twisted steel, yet he wants to flop. Yeah.

If I'm LeBron, things are not going, I'm going to do that too. Yeah. It's just kind of what it is. It's all on Twitter, somebody said, out of all the things that people disagree on politics, you know, climate change, all that kind of shit. There's one thing that we've all agreed on is that Patrick Mahomes and the chiefs get every fucking call. That is. They do get so many. Clear his day right now, ma'am. Clear his day. But there was a similar thing in the Ravens'

Bill's game, I think, or it was one of the other games where quarterback runs out of bounds and there's a late hit, late tackle. I think it was a tackle on Lamar. And the whoever was calling the game was like yesterday if Daron Patrick Mahomes game this was a flag. How does it's not carry over? I mean the shot that Jared golf took if Mahomes takes that shot that's a penalty. Right.

He got in those years your best asset. NFL is like that's our greatest asset right now. It's crazy. Chiefs are at a great spot dude everyone in the world is rooting for the bills to unseat the chiefs. The chiefs are in a great position to be the villain be able to 3P all

all that stuff but we're all going to be sitting there. For the AFC championship? No, I'm rooting for the bills. I'm rooting for the bills. I'm just playing devil's advocate. He doesn't. See that three feet. If the chiefs beat the bills, I would like to see a three Pete, yes.

I'd like to see the bills get their first championship. I'd like to see the bills win at all. I like to see Josh Allen, them boys. You want chiefs over commanders? I would. I'd probably think chiefs are for commanders. Because for the ability to see, we've never witnessed the three Pete in our entire lives. The history of the NFL, it's never happened.

No. My hate is. that would be cool to witness. Yeah. A three-pee. But that's like the bottom. And in my mind, it's like you've got a rookie quarterback. When you have a talented rookie quarterback

you're in such a good position because your cap is not all fucked up because you're paying them a billion dollars. Like, we might never see the chance for a three-peed to happen again. The way the commanders are looking right now, I would be more optimistic that you guys are going to be in a seat of power

for a long time, given that Jane Daniel stays healthy. And so I would like to see that history piece itself. I would like to. And it'd be sick if they get the 3P Travis Kelsey takes his jersey off, lays it down. He walks on a sunset. I just love stories like that.

That being said, I got bills in this game. I want the bills to win. And... And... JP, look back at the locker room. I mean, play the clip right now of my take on Bill's Chiefs in the regular season.

Thank you. Thank you for playing that clip. I mean, let's hope it doesn't come true. But if it does, let's hope for a 3P. You did also say if the commanders did make you, you're like, maybe it's better if the commanders don't win the Super Bowl this year. Huh? Remember when in Chicago you were saying,

maybe it's better for the commanders if they don't win the Super Bowl this year? No, I was the Raiders. I think you were saying commanders as well. When did I, you guys have the CTE brain, but like we were talking about the Ravens last week on the locker room and I was talking about how if you're the Ravens, do you want to really win the Super Bowl right now because you have to wait in there 12 years based on history?

That one, yeah. But I don't remember the commanders. one. Play the clip. Yeah, I said it. You said it, Taylor. All right, my then. My fault, my fault. I know. It's going to be, it's going to be an awesome weekend. You got Washington, Eagles, indivision, rivalry.

You got Chiefs, Bills. Yeah, me rematch that everyone loves to see. It really is perfect. It would have been great to see the Ravens, man. Before the games yesterday, I was kind of pumped to potentially see a Bill's Commander Super Bowl. Battle of the Beltway, Washington, Baltimore.

Maybe not. Ravens versus commanders. I'm saying before the game yesterday. What's the Battle of the Beltway? I don't know what that is. Yeah, Battle for the Bellway. I got confused because he said Bill's first. Before that Bill's game,

I thought it'd be cool to see like a Commander's Raven Super Bowl. Because when they play in the preseason they call Battle for the World. But the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals, their game every time they play their games every time they play it's like battle for the beltway because they're all everybody so close

like Baltimore is within a two hour drive of uh of like Ashburn of where we are with the commanders got you okay yeah I don't hate that take I just didn't know what the Northeast rivalry I feel like the Northeast would just absolutely love that game yeah I would like to see

I guess you'll to tune into the locker room but Bill's commanders but we'll have some nice information for why it should be those commanders yeah yeah uh i would love to read this ad read however script should be verbatim do not go off script will let's get the blood flown below the belt let's talk about the elephant in the room erectile dysfunction one in four men 18 years and older experience ed which means that you or someone close to you might be experiencing it that's why i want to tell you about this new ed treatment gel iraq

Fun games on the horizon. Yeah. Bum for the, still bum for the Ravens. Still bump for Mark Andrews. Yeah. I feel terrible. I wanted Derek Henry to go get himself one.

Wanted Lamar to get the monkey off his back. Wanted those things that happened for the Ravens, but also excited for the Bills to get this monkey off their back, beating the Chiefs in the UFC championship. Do you think after that Bill's Ravens game, Josh Allen now wins the MVP over Lamar Jackson? That's a great question. All the votes are.

Are they, though? Were they before the game? Were the votes in in 2020, Mitch? You were saying the other day. That's what they said. Like, this game doesn't bear any meaning towards the MVP, because all the votes were already in at the end of the regular season. Right.

Right. Hey. Right. I mean, I agree with you. There's tight race. I mean, both those players are unreal. Also, Joe Burroughs are left in the dust, too. His stats, nuts.

Yeah. Yeah. It's just unfortunate. His team couldn't elevate to his level. Because if they did, we're looking at them in the AFC championship right now. Yeah. We're recording this on Monday morning, so we haven't been able to watch the Notre Dame

Ohio State game. I have no clue how that one's going to unfold. I assume it's going to be Ohio State. We're going to be saying we're talking about the Ohio State Buckeyes. I assume it'll be another name, right? Right? Right. Could it be the Irish?

I mean, Ohio State is elite. They are crushing. This is a Bay 10 championship. This is a Bay 10 national championship. Yeah. What this is. Not really. But speaking of the Irish, how about Shane's commercial?

Elite. Shane Gillis, Tommy Pope from the Rafters up top. Do you go to Notre Dame? Yeah. I didn't go to Notre Dame. I don't know. I'm sorry. I didn't go to Notre Dame.

It's another awesome commercial. Awesome. Dude. Well done. I think too with those commercials, they let Shane's team kind of write it and direct it and produce it all too. That's awesome. That is.

Putting his boys on. Him talking about betting. I won't bet for three months. Yeah. Half not bet. I'll half bet this weekend. I'll half bet this weekend. Yeah.

It was awesome. It's great to see. It's a perfect storm for Shane. He's just on the top of the world right now for Notre Dame to be the national championship. What a win. I know. What a win for him.

I just hope they get it done. You think if Notre Dame loses, he tweets his own video of him putting the gun in his mouth. God, that is the move. Yeah, I'll DM. That is the move. But yeah. I'm sad.

College football is coming to an end. Yeah, it is tough. You feel everything pick up because it's NFL playoff season. You know, I went to the wayside, but I am. I'm sad that college football's ending. I know.

I did like... Go ahead. Predictions for next year, for Nebraska and Michigan. In the national title game? Well, no, just y'all's predictions how you are feeling for next year. Bro. Nebraska, Michigan got the national title next year. That would be so awesome.

I mean, obviously we both think our teams are going to win. Yeah. I mean, what are you trying to do? We don't want to be mean right now. Yeah, it's January. we've got eight more months until the bus and bowl look I think it's September 20th right

yeah yeah so it's eight months a day after my birthday oh wow so that's birthday weekend what a birthday weekend that is gonna be the worst birthday present for you that's birthday weekend that is going to suck and where is it at Nebraska

oh lord god dude how sad is well gonna be if they lose though how sad if like I don't think I'm gonna be sad because we're winning But how sad is Will going to be if the same thing that's happened all of the times I'm just saying, dude, no, I'm just saying

you didn't beat our ass all the times. We've won all of the times. Yeah, yeah, you guys have won. I'm just saying. They should have called that a dead ball when Adrian Martinez was stood up at the line when we were going on that game. There's always four players of Nebraska cornhosters

named Adrian Martinez. Yeah, I obviously, I want Michigan to win. Bum be so sad for Will, wouldn't they do? I'm just pumped that the Buss and Bowls back. I know. In September 2, both undefeated teams. Let's hope. Who y'all play week one?

Cincinnati at Arrowhead. The New Heights Buston Bowl. Who's Michigan player, week one? Let's pop that up real quick. Is it too early to do a schedule? Let's pop up the schedules and start running them? Is it too early? I mean, hey, one good note about Jay and Daniels being a rookie coming in,

having the success he had, Bryce Underwood. Something to think about, right? Could be a rookie in college having the same success. It's a little early. Okay, yeah, yeah. Wait.

You got Oklahoma in Norman week two. Oklahoma in Norman. That's all right. The New Mexico Lobos? Yeah, we'll handle the loboes. Central Michigan. We'll handle the wolves. We'll handle.

Central Michigan. What is that? The Chippewas? Good a little bye week, early by. Chippewas? Antonio Brown. Yeah, I mean, listen, even when I was at Michigan, we played central Michigan at one. I think we're going to be all right.

No, they're bad. Okay. And then the Oscars. Huskers. September 20th. Eight months from today. 4.20. Right?

I mean, yeah, more or less. It's January 20th right now. February has 28 days. Like, it'll be like eight. It'll literally be eight. It'll literally be eight. Eight months. What do we talk?

You understand how there's different months. Each month has different days in each month. And you understand that every month that goes by is a new month. So if it's January, the next month is February, then it's March, then April, then May, then June, then July, August, then finally September. You take all those months together. We're exactly eight months away. Can you look that up?

I mean, I'm not saying days. I was like, there's a hundred and whatever many days. Yeah, correct. Correct. What are we arguing? I don't know. You guys are just arguing about math. Here,

you understand that February has 28 days. This much... That's the September 1st. September 1st. It's literally eight months away. Even if this thing's gonna be wrong if it's anything different. Is my logic fucked up?

No. I think I just... Great podcast argument. Yeah. Okay, yeah. If I said there's 200 and however... like 225 days. 243.

I know. I said if I were to say that. 243. Yeah, exactly. But there's eight months or eight months away. Maybe. 7.98 months.

Oof. This one's got a word. GBR maybe. What a crazy? GBR. GBR. 7.9803 months away.

Hate to see it. God. God. What a shit is. God So Yeah dude Notre Dame

Notre Dame could shock the world tonight We're talking about bets You're Jay Pete stirring up the pot What is that Bald bet

For Michigan Nebraska Yeah we got to do Something bigger than that Just throw it in there Deeds to our homes Loseer as another kid Firstborns

Yeah We'll have to put a little bet together for that Like if we're going to do shaved heads It'll be like on the field On the field I don't know about ball ball Hold on now

I got some dense in this head Yeah bigger With you in hair man From shaved head to ball no Yeah you're always the one Telling other people to do shade Oh I don't know I've never touched this body with ink

My body's my temple But nobody sees an astat Astat Block N or Block M Or each other's face That would be fine funny. Hey, that would be so funny.

And I have a nice old canvas back there too. I do got a canvas. You got a canvas. Yours would be a little fucked up if you guys won, but Michigan wins? Other than the bus and bowl.

Ashtats. Hold on. No, no, I'm not agreeing to nothing in the moment. Astats. Not agreeing to nothing in the moment. Aged to nothing in the moment. Come on astats, dude. It is back. What do you got, G?

Other than the buss and bowl, What possible stops should we make on the fall tour? I'm just going to throw this out there. What other Nebraska game, Will? They play in Ireland. There's a possibility of me being committed to three Nebraska games in September. Dog, you are out of hand. There's something in the works that has nothing to do with me that I would have to be at a game.

Cincinnati's, Cincinnati, that's a potential to collab with new heights. You can stay home if you want to. No, I'm a go. Or you can go to Michigan. I'm a cop. You go to New Mexico Lobos. different fall tour stops love the idea of the Red River rivalry

love that you pops it up on the screen there that's fantastic I think we need to be more fluid about where we go based on matchups as the season progresses next year yeah like I love this because it is a big rivalry it's in the middle of the season that's awesome also

that's in October isn't it that is in October it's usually the third second or third It is in October. And we need to get our out. We got to get an organ. Like we got to. We'll have it figured out.

We got a look. Spam the comments. Span the comments. We got a dollar on spring tour. We got a dollar on spring door. October 11th is the Red River robbery. Is that the day for you all though? Oh, nice.

Oh, nice. Oh, nice. Hey, that's pretty nice. What is it? South Carolina, Alabama. Where's it at? Columbia. I'll go to that.

That would be sick. That'd be sick. But, yeah, let's keep. things, let's try to keep it fluid in the fall. Cincinnati, Nebraska. Whatever sponsors are out there looking at the boys. Nebraska, Michigan. Nebraska versus somebody else. Nebraska versus UCLA.

If we can get around a week of two of Nebraska boys, it'd be great. And any sponsor, potential sponsors listening, just know we got to be fluid with the boys. You got to be fluid with the boys. Be fluid with the boys. Because you're going to get the best content that way. Biggest games, best content, be fluid with the boys. One year we should just do a full fall tour, only Nebraska. games. I like the way he's cooking.

Takes a little bit of time.

Tier two. Yeah, but when you, oh yeah, yeah, cheer two talk. Tier two is going to go to the snowball fight, especially with your kids.

My kids are learning. They're getting their elbows up. They're understanding how to throw. But being able to show everybody who, what's what? Who's who? Like, you're, you're dealing with your old man here.

Yeah. And I, you know, a million dollar arm with a five cent head. And I don't know where it's going, but if it hits you, you're going to be in trouble. And my tier one is going to go to the sledding.

That is my tier talk. I think too Building a Snowman brings just a different vibe when you have kids too Yeah Yeah Yeah

The Oh wait We didn't go around Do one word to Describe True We fucked up Tehr talk

Start over We leave Barstville one day Lucy is the true Go ahead One word Great For both lists

Awesome For Will's mid For Taylor It's true. For mine what? True. I heard it the first time.

I was excited to hear it again. I was excited to hear it again. Will's warm, Taylor Cold. Huh? Okay. Retweet Mitch. Solid. For both.

Okay. Yeah. Okay. They're both the same. Snowball fight. Snowball fight. It was different. Warm.

War. Oh, Mitch you got a list? Yeah. Oh, Mitch? All right, Mitch. Step up to the plate bar. All right. This is, this is, mine's going to be different than yours, clearly.

My honorable mention, and I don't know if this is just something that I did growing up, but do you want me, let me hold it. Okay. You get a gatorade and you just pour it in the snow and you just start licking it. It's like a free ice cone. That's my honorable mention. Okay, hold on. Go ahead. Yeah, we'll unpack that.

But make sure to put a pin in that girt. Make sure we get back to that one. My tier three is going to go sledding. My tier two, snowball fight, because you know you're just going to be whipping them at whomever. And my tier one, I don't know how this guy's, how this didn't make it on either of your list, snow football, just being all bundled up

and all your warm clothes and just being able to annihilate your boys and just, you know it's not going to hurt because it's in snow and you're in all your clothes. So that is my tier talk. I'll tell you why I didn't make my list. I'm not a teenager anymore. Hey, one word

Sorry, sorry Iphanated Teenager Painful Goated Goated Authentic Tasty

I like it Tasty What's the What's the treat? Serendipitous That's it Let's let's out Pack that Gatorade thing for a month

So you take the Gatorade You pour it out And then you lick the snow Correct. Okay, why not take half of a Gatorade, put snow in the Gatorade, and then drink the Gatorade? Because the snow melts in the Gatorade. Ooh. That's a really good point.

But it doesn't melt on the ground? No, it does. So, like, when you pour it in the snow. Hand in the L. When you pour it in the snow, like, it's not all going to go right to the ground. It's just going to be like a little perfect little snow cone. And then you just get down on the ground and lick it. Okay.

Climb it snows, next time I guarantee you. I'll make a video. Next time it snows, I'll make a video and do that exact thing. Like, it is like the best thing to do when you're a kid. Purple. Purple. Yeah, it's got to be purple. Purple.

No doubt, but that's just like, there's something about... When he was talking about the Gatorade, I was thinking to myself, it's got to be purple. There's something about like just literally getting a Gatorade falling in the snow and just laying there and just pouring it in different spots and just like licking it. Authentic is the word. bro. Holy shit. The Mitch cone. Yeah, bro.

I mean, you got it. If we get more snow. If we get more snow, we all have to make a video. 100%. Oh, 100%. Look at each other's cones. Look each other's cones. Yes.

Mitch cone going viral. I have a list. And Jack actually helped me with this list. Number three, sledding. Number two, snow fort. Number one, playing airsoft or paintball in said snowfall. It's goaded. It's goaded.

And that's my tear-time. And that seems like a lot of fun. Yeah. Fun. Exciting. Painful. Authentic. Adrenaline.

War. Snow fort. Never had the opportunity to build one of those. Is it hard? Get in it? Yeah, yeah. My first real experience was snow. was at 18 years old.

Yeah. So I don't, I didn't, you know. The best thing about snow forts, too, if you get like a lot, a lot of snow, you do it down by the road. You do it down by the road. And like when the snow gets plowed off the road, it's just like a big barrier on the side. And then you get that extra snow. You get out, get under there and it's next level. Okay.

God, I have a lot to remember about snow. Throwing snowballs at cars. No. No, I don't hate that. in trouble doing that but god it was fun adrenaline rush or like a stop sign yeah yeah throwing competitions

see that pick up a rock do the same thing with the snow no one did snow angels yeah I don't snow angel brew had a great snow angel yeah move your arms and she's just like moving

her arms pouring twisted tea on snow while being asked yeah while being asked a twisted question. Whoa. Do we want to do a twisted question? Let's do a quick question.

This twisted question is brought to us by Twisted tea, real brewed tea, 5% alcohol, perfect for game day tailgating, whatever your dream is. Twisted tea is there to give you full of flavor. It's also very refreshing. It goes down smooth and

there is no carbonation, which makes it easy to drink all day long. It feels fun and celebrates extreme fandom. It is the perfect alcohol beverage for game day tailgating in the parking lot watching at a bar watch of our friends at home it's there to turn up your game day keep it twisted with the boys and grab a refreshing twisted tea today go ahead give us the twisted question this week you are going to dinner you get to pick your four guests who you want to bring and where exactly they are sitting at the table oh great twisted question alive or dead

correct alive or dead alive or dead question about the swisted question you get you have to orient them where you want them. Question. It's hard because it's like if you could ever go to lunch with somebody, there's a lot of people I would go to lunch with, but do they have to be like super honest with you? They have to actually talk because some people could be a little more introverted. No, yeah, you're going to like...

It's your pick. Yeah, you're going to dinner with the boys. All right. Ryan Whitney, Paul Bisson, Tiela Juan. No PFT. Come on, dog. It's also my fault. just the dinner that we did that Dave was pissed about

yeah which was such an elite dinner and you gotta you gotta cancel off Francis because he kind of who's sitting where yeah you gotta say who's sitting where are we at the head of the table I'll be at the head of the table you got wit you got Taylor

you got biz you got Rhone small table too so everyone's kind of in each other's conversations that's elite would you go any other way I mean, I think about it, but just off the top. Just off the top. Yeah.

Not trying to think too much into it. Think of a great dinner. Yeah. Think of a great dinner we just had. Recreate that. I'd like to get my people in like different time frames of life. Like Frank Sinocs would be one for me. It'd be interesting to learn about the rat pack, what it was like back then, all of those things.

But then I would kind of like now I would stay away from that time zone, that time frame. one individual, this is going to be a weird one. Charles Manson. I know. I know. Your silence is crazy. That dude is a psychopath. There's no doubt about it.

There's something interesting to me, at least, about serial killers that I was like, what goes to your brain, the Ted bunnies, the storylines? But a guy like Charles Manson who gets a cult, establishes a cult, and then does all the horrible things he does. I like to hear a couple stories from him. I think he'd be very entertaining at this dinner party. drinking the pool is, you know, maybe.

Yeah, and that's very much my personality. I'd probably end up buying into that. Those are two I have in my head. I'll come back.

If everybody has any other ones, let me know. Those are my two. Not Michael Jackson. I'm going to go with Levar Ball, lamello ball, and Lonzo Ball.

Let's go. Yeah, Leangelo. Where did they sit? I'm going to have to have Levar furthest away from me because I know I'll be

able to hear him regardless. Across from him will be Leangelo because I feel like they need to spend more time together. LeVar to my, I mean, Lonzo to my left, Lamello to my right.

Yeah. And then I can only hope that LeVar gives me like the opportunity he's given his boys. Someone who might make the list, Timothy Shaliman. Once again, Charlemagne, whatever. Once again, there's a video of him this weekend coming out of a car in France. People speaking French to him

What does he do? Speaks French back. What can't he do? He said, I can't the kid do? What can't he do? And it's Charlamette. Timothy Charlamette.

Got it. Charlamette. That's my third. I love that. I know. Come back. Go ahead, Mitch. Who we got?

Me? Dude, yeah, maybe Travis Parker. That'd be sick, but I feel he's quiet. More introverted. Yeah, Charles would be a crazy. You can't tell me that would be like one of the most entertaining dinners ever. Think about a dinner with

Dave Chappelle Adam Sandler Jesus Fergie Denzel Washington You what That's great The Jesus out of nowhere

Jesus out of nowhere Be worried about cursing the whole time Keep by PTSD from that one guy stabbing him in the back From that one dinner he had a long time ago They have a whole bunch of issues What would you guys like to drink And you're like I'll take water

And then look over at Jesus What's you going to do with that? Yeah, yeah, you're going to... You help this bill out? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know who my fourth is. He'd be fun.

Oh, fuck, I don't know. Tom DeLange? Mark Hopes? Alien talk, yeah. Elon will be so... Yeah. He'll just be on his phone the whole time. Yeah, I wouldn't be able to understand him.

Probably not, but that's not for me. I'm not going to understand Charles Manson either, but it'll be interesting. And your hope is with Elon Musk at a dinner is you're like, maybe I can say one thing to spark his interest towards me so he starts telling me things. But then it becomes like a, please look at me type dinner and you don't want that. Fuck, dude.

Just go for good vibes. Vince Vaughn. There you go. Thank you. That was what a weird group. I was sitting next to you. Was that you? I could go to dinner with you whenever, though.

I love it. It's great every single time. I don't think I've had The one last week Yeah, you know, y'all too We go to breakfast more than we go to dinner Yeah Try, we'll always says no

I always try What are you doing? I was like, come on bro We're together Get out of here, dude I'm trying to look at Nebraska highlights I don't know what my list would be But I do like the idea

That you're going for In having someone In Who was the first person you said Frank Sinatra's air and then, you know, a little bit further up, maybe a safer play than Charles Manson, but kind of learning. Maybe a safer play.

Learning along, like, the steps, but then someone current that could help, you know, kind of spread wisdom to them about the current day. I feel like at my dinner, I would probably do the least amount of talking. I would just want to, yeah, that's what you're kind of hoping for. I just want to listen. Hey, throwing Jordan Peterson? Solid. Solid. Solid pick. I don't know.

I mean, like, even, dude, uh, J.F. hey, would be awesome. But did you see it coming? Do you know what's happening? Those papers are going to be nuts. I don't think I would have an athlete unless it was like, I don't know, Babe Ruth. I feel like Michael Jordan would be solid.

Dick Butkus, Ray Lewis, Luke Keakley, Patrick Willis. And you. Yeah. Yeah, dude. A lot of different ways you can go with that twisted question. Good twist of question. Yeah. Good twist of question, Mitch.

Leave your four in the comments. Yeah. Pepeaves? Pepeaves? Pep peeves? We need a... We sure, dog. We can cut through this.

Our pet peeves, we getting a lot of complaining. off our chest? Does anybody want to start? Thank God the Matthews brothers aren't here to tear you down this week.

I know, good God. Which could do is you just do a little app on your phone. I did find a pet peeve of mine. Go ahead. Roo and I went to Target. I love kid pet peeves. When you, it's not a kid pet peeve, but when you grab a grocery cart

and the wheels, one wheel's kind of off so you're kind of forcing it to the left the whole time or to the right the whole time. When it's just starting to curve and you're just having to direct the entire time, that's a pet peeve of mine. Bad grocery carts. Bad grocery carts.

That's a good pet peeve. I'm going to go kid pet peeve. Okay. Big fan of it. Thank you for being a safe space for me, world. Harry Potter is obviously massive in my house right now. We're reading the book. We're halfway through Prisoners of Ascaband right now.

Wynne likes to do this fun thing where while I'm reading or while her mother is reading, she will ask future questions of what's going on. Like, Sirius Black. Where is Sirius Black? Like in the middle. He'll be mentioned, be like, oh, where is he right now? I'll be like, you will find out. I promise.

Harry gets into it with Malfoy. He gets his arm slashed by Hagrid's animal, that, whatever. He's like, is Haring going to get fired? It's like, honey, we will continue to read this book. And I swear to you, you will find the answers to all of your questions. But you just got to wait and be patient for a little bit. That is mine. That's my pet pee.

Go ahead. No, you got it. I was going to say Rue on a younger level. Like, we'll be, I'm just, this is an example. Say we'll be watching Frozen and Ola, is on the screen and she's fascinated with Olaf but once Olaf goes off the screen she wants Olaf to come back on what happened to Olaf and it's like

he's going to come back in the picture you just got to be patient swear to God he's going to come back I promise or when we're watching Jurassic Parks you want to Bumpy the Stegasorosis when Bumpy's not on the screen she's like what happened to Bumpy? Sweetheart he's going to come back we've even watched this episode so you know he's going to come back into the picture

I'm with you yeah going back to that one pet peeve of mine is no more commercials I kind of pisses me off that kids don't have to go through the trials and tribulations of sitting through a minute and 30 seconds of commercials. Because there's a couple times where I'll put YouTube TV on. There's a show on or whatever.

And commercials will come on. And my kids will be like, dad, put the show back on. I'm like, you don't fucking get it. You're going to sit here and you're going to watch this. YouTube TV is telling us to sit with this Zen scene right now. Like, let's have a little bit of Zen before we get back into the action. It's okay to pace yourself in the journey of cinema. That's okay to do.

But I did flip the script. my kids though so we've been putting obviously football games on and when the commercials come on they're like why are these commercials on i have to explain to them but i'll tell them the point of commercials to sell things so every commercial when they come on it's my kid's job to tell me what they're trying to sell and that's a fun game i like that's a fun game unfortunately that pet peeve i feel like stays with some people or what what wind does asking all these questions what happens next that stays with people into their adult years because i hate when i've seen a movie and i'm watching a movie with somebody and they haven't seen it and they're like wait so who is this person i'm

like they're about to find out that's where we're watching the movie right right and i hate when they ask questions about it yeah do you want to watch the movie or you just want me to tell you what happens yeah so but that's go off that's not my pet peeve contrary to that uh pet peeve is i do like when i'm watching a movie for the first time let's say a movie that like this is the third fourth movie it just came out and i go to see it with somebody and i haven't necessarily seen those three four movies, that person I'm with giving me a little bit of context of why things are interesting during that movie. Planet of the Apes is a good example of that. Context is fine. Contest is great. Yes. Questions. The whole thing. But you, you're doing a good job and not really

ask questions. I'll just lean over it to you and give you context. I know, but I did like that. I did like that. Yeah. Okay, you see that medallion right there? Right. You see it in the house? That's actually the same. I'm thinking of myself, yo, that's a good tidbit. I needed that. What's your pet peeve, J.P.? My pet peeve is... He's got a lot of them. He's got a lot. There's... This isn't...

I know Shirm has glasses on. This is not about Shirm. He keeps his clean. But I hate when people that wear glasses come up and I'm talking to them and I can see how dirty their glasses are. Because all I'm thinking about is there is no way that you're looking at me through those glasses and it's all good. Because I see about eight fingerprints, some grease, a crumb. I just want to... it just bugs me.

I'm like, please clean your glasses up. I love it. That bugs, JP. Dude. It's funny that JP is on, me and JP are both on you quite a bit for how grumpy you are, but JP is a well on his way. Yeah.

Well on his way. The seatbelt thing, oh, is that me? That's a JP. Bro, but yeah. No doubt, no doubt. I understand that. But like, you just,

you do a good job of making it known. You do a really good job with that. Onward. Jack, you have a pet peeve? No, I have a shout out though. Give a shout out. Give a shout out. I'm feeling positive.

And my shoutout goes to Canadians. Okay. And I know you'd like this. Over the weekend, some of our friends, one of my buddies Sam met these three girls from Canada in October just randomly. And then they came back and we hung out with them all weekend. And they're just the kindest human beings ever. And we just had so much fun.

And even though I'm in Nashville doing what I'd normally be. you doing just hanging out it felt like i was on a vacation almost like visiting another place um and just like meeting people with new experiences and the way they met it was at a random bar just some little conversation both of them should have never been there and we're thinking like what if they had never gone to the bar what if he'd never gone and now i have new friends for life so shout out making new friends shout out canadians and shout out emma alana and tiffany so positivity Hey, Jack, you dirty little dog, you little rascal, you boy. They would make a fantastic 51st date.

Canada really would. 25. How do y'all feel they were buying you? Yeah. Your boy Trudeau. Gone. We died. He said your boy, Trudeau!

That was like two weeks ago. Yeah, but. Two weeks ago, he said I'm out. Anybody got a pet peeve back there? Yeah, I got one. No. my pet peeve I love how Sherm won't let you hold

Yeah My pet peeve goes to I don't know how to Like nice cars When they're like Your BMWs your Mercedes You're like all of those kind of cars They feel like they own the road

They feel like because I'm driving a nice car You need to drive around me I'm gonna squeeze in here And like the rules don't apply to them Just because they have a nice car And they feel like they can get away with doing Just driving like an asshole And I

It pisses me off to know I'm like, oh, of course it's a fucking Mercedes-Benz. Of course it's a fucking BMW. I mean, Taylor doesn't, I've never been on the road with Taylor. The rules do not apply to me in my hair when I'm driving. It's okay. Like, I'm from my...

I don't drive any of those cars. National's the worst city in the world when it comes to driving. Like being from the Northeast, I've driven in Jersey, New York, like all of those places, nothing compares to the incompetence of drivers in Nashville, Tennessee. Wow. It's absurd. Especially when the weather's cold. People just all of a sudden want to not go over 15 miles an hour.

Nobody knows how to drive down here. And like they just don't know, they don't use signals. They don't just trying to like just drive and fucking all over the place. It is absolutely insane. And it drives me up a wall. Yeah. It's bad. Yeah.

Good pet peeve. Quick little rebuttal. We all drove perfectly fine until you assholes moved here. Oh. Eat them up, gee. Eat them up. Eat them up. That's all I'm going to say.

That's all I'm going to say. Rebuttal? Double rebuttal? Okay. Double rebuttal. Nothing the right home about. You got it, Mitch. Nothing the right home about.

Every car that is driving terribly has the fucking Tennessee's license plate. Oh! Triple rebuttal! What did you just do on Friday? I got a Tennessee license license. No! What triple? I did just get a Tennessee license license.

Oh, tights! Tighten! Tides! Tige man! That's because you have to or else you get fucking fined for some bullshit. Okay. I'd rather say Wow, wow, wow.

I don't know what this is, but I'll do it too. It means he stink. Oh, good podcast beef. Podcast beef. Damn. Good bo's being thrown back and forth. I saw J.P. Go, oh, you should get him.

You just saw me, as soon as you said it, you probably were like, fuck. Well, yeah. Yeah, my pet peeve is when Northerners come down to the south and try and tell us what to do. Pisses me off. Snowbirds. Snowbirds. Snowbirds. Not really, though.

I love Mitch. I love you. I've been in the South for five years now. What does that mean? Earned his stripes. How long does it take living? Seven years. Seven years earn your stripes.

Let's find. I'm in. How many years you've been here? You've never been a Waffle House and you think you're from the South? Six. You're going on seven, yeah. It'll be like seven. Notre Dame money line.

Jack, he'll be seven years in April, so he's still not him. I give it to Will, though, because of what he did for the Tennessee Titans. Thank you, Jack. You're in, dude. Ever, ever get it. You were in on that play, right then, in there. Is Missouri not considered? I think it's in Midwest.

We've had this conversation. Okay, okay. People from Bonteur, like, it'll be like split up. Yeah, some people want to claim they're Southern. So someone resurfaced a map the other day, I thought was pretty funny. Had a little more stuff going on. I don't know. I think it might have been Jackmack.

He said stuff going on. Yeah, more themes. More themes. Before we get off the show or do we want to- We got some new ink on the bus. Oh, man. Showed the new egg Oh, you know what butterfly?

Yeah, the video was crazy Yeah, this is a little butterfly Yeah, I had Joey shaved me Joey shaved me Joey shaved me, that's my butter. Yeah, we are very close to that, Taylor, so Nope I haven't shaved in a minute too

So it's just like, we're like one little centimeter away from it being a problem What's the deal with the butterfly? Dude, they're endangered We got to look out for butterflies What are you talking about, especially the monarch butterfly? Are you kidding me? Oh, so that's why you got

polluting our environment, how about that? That's why you got the tat Yeah. Yeah, dude. You don't care about our environment or animals? No, I mean, I care, but to an extent. I'm trying to live in a world where my kids live in a better world than I lived in. You don't care about your kids, man.

I think my kids live. Both my kids live in a better world than I was living in. Save the butterflies, dude. Now, I got the, I got the butterfly because that was really the only thing they could fit in there. I had such an awkward little spot. And I was like, get a butterfly. I'm like, all right. So I got a butterfly.

That's it. Jack, how about you? What kind of ink you got? So, New Cowboy, I don't even want to show it. I need my aquifer on it. So I'm filling in my arm right now.

It's a work in progress. And, you know, no real. It's all right, Jack. There's no meaning behind it. Tell how great it is, dude. Right here, man. It's dusty right now because I have put my aquifer on it.

Jesus Christ. It's a. Mexican tied to a cactus with arrows in the cactus. Because Mexicans are endangered now, too. Save the Mexicans. Oh, and I got his eight ball, too, mainly because I was trying to fit it in there. Kind of Taylor's similar. And then a couple filler ones.

And then I learned when we get here, hey, we got to do a custom social ad. We had to wait and postpone it because we need to get another box that I'd eaten it all. But it is. It's good stuff. Don't send food to your house if you're not expected to get eight. Yeah.

Like, that's just the game. Yeah. Also shout out you for getting some for the boys. Shout out. Can I have that popcorn maker? Yeah, if you want it. You're not going to keep that popcorn maker? No.

Dude, we were talking about that in here. flying of Chicago and Will goes Did you see what Burke got us for Christmas? I was like, yeah, do you the popcorn maker? Where am I going to put that? I'm just thinking, Doug. It was a nice thought out gift. I'm sure Bert didn't go and find the popcorn maker himself

but he definitely didn't. His people, Pete, came up to him was like, who do you want to send Christmas gifts to? And he said Will and Taylor as part of that list. That's special. And got mad. I tell you what. And they said seasonings too to put on the popcorn,

which by the way is the bit, that has to be a shout at also. the seasoning on a popcorn. It's here. Oh. Yeah. Oh, yeah. We can put it in the shop.

Yeah, just put it in the shop. Sherm always asking for things, too. Last week he's trying to get a moped. I'll take it. Yeah. I think a moped for the shop would be great. Oh, you mean you live four minutes away from here? Hey, we could put it in the movie room.

Yeah. The dead. The dead. You're right. You're right. You're right. There's a great spot to put it. It could be good.

But Bert has sent a number of gifts. A number of gifts. I use a little skillet. that he sent us. Yeah. What else he's saying? He sent a smoker, which,

Shirm got that. Hey, and I've been using that smoker. Thank you to his team because I've been using that smoker like crazy. Yeah. Rec tech.

While we're on the subject of bird, do you guys think there's a world where he gets 320 at the Super Bowl? No. I think he can, bro. What do you mean? Just with that adrenaline?

Yeah, short arms, big belly, big barrel chest. He is going to get body. He's had, he's had over a month to prepare. And he was already, he was close to it.

He wasn't getting it. How did it get extended? Bro, he did $2.85 for three. They wanted to do it at the Super Bowl? Because he didn't want to do it in and out like on January 1st, right? Yeah. They were going to, like, they were doing something in and out really quick. And they're like, what if we do for the Super Bowl?

They were doing something with jelly. Yeah, because I think the Shelley and Bert did like some New Year's thing on TV. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's like, just do it the next day than the league. Yeah, because it was supposed to be 315. They wanted to push to the Super Bowl. We were calling for 325. if he was going to get an extra month to prepare.

So he's had two months to prepare. And we ultimately settled on 320. But I think he gets it because there's going to be a shitload of people around, like the adrenaline. I don't think he fails. And the loser, a loser of the bet, if he doesn't get it,

like they're going to have to own two bears one cave doing ad read on buss with the boys every episode throughout 2025. Which is awesome. We have to shout out his tour for 2025.

while people are watching this, it's already happened. So who's going to look dumb and who's going to look smart? JP, we'll start with you. The mic's in your hand. Notre Dame, game winning field goal, Mitch Jeter, four-year game game player. I want Notre Dame to win so bad, but Ohio State, two touchdown scores.

Easy. I'm with Jack. I want Notre Dame, but I think Ohio State's winning this game. Ohio State, 50 Burger, Notre Dame sucks. All my boys hate Notre Dame. Ohio State, five billion. I'm going to Ohio State.

This is an AJ Hawk jersey from 2005. You just bought that. I promise you this is a youth XL. I can have my mom send me a picture because I was AJ Hawk for Halloween one year, so I'm obviously going by a lot. I think Ohio State catches an L. I think it's the Irish.

27-24. This game does not matter to me. It's a win-win no matter what. Ohio State wins. Michigan beat the national champs. We were the national champs last year going 15-0. Ohio State loses. they didn't get a Big Ten championship,

they didn't get a national championship, they got fucking nothing. So for me it's a win-win. But give me Notre Dame. Give me Notre Dame. I like the field goal. All right, boys. We'll see you next week.

Yeah, yeah. I won Notre Dame, but I think Ohio State's winning. Great episode. Big Hugs, Tiny Kisses, leave comments. Make sure subscribe. Locker room this week. Locker room this week on Wednesday evening. Wednesday evening.
