Bussin' With The Boys - Will Compton & Delanie Walker Pick Teams For All-White vs All-Black Football Game

Episode Date: December 19, 2023

Recorded: December 18th 2023 | On this weeks episode we are without Taylor so we had Delanie Walker aka The Mule sit in for him. The guys immediately get into the Tennessee Titans after they suffered ...a tough loss this past weekend. Derrick Henry gave a post game press conference and some of his comments made it seem as though he knows this is his last year as a Titan. Will and Delanie get into where they would like to see The King play and what teams/systems he would fit in well with. The boys then get into some of the other NFL headlines like the Cowboys/Bills game as well as the Dolphins/Jets game. This then brought up the comments from Cam Newtown saying that Tua and Dak are "game managers" and not game changers at quarterback. So then Delanie and Will had a little back and forth debate on what the difference is and who falls under what category. Some of their answers may surprise you. Jack then brings up a tweet from Rashard Medenhall that we feel starts a really good debate. His tweet was that instead of the Pro Bowl, there should be an all white vs all black team game which is an absolutely wild take. But once Will and Delanie dive deeper into it and really start figuring out who would be on what team, it really starts to shake up a good debate. Let us know in the comments some players that the guys left out.

Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey guys, it's us The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast?
Starting point is 00:00:09 Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know, tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen.
Starting point is 00:00:27 We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and Friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, S&L's Mikey Day and head writer, Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between songs banter.
Starting point is 00:00:48 Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and Friends on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is, getting a racist statue removed. And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is, getting a new one put up in its
Starting point is 00:01:10 place. I'm Akela Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 is about both of those things. As I was watching these statues come down, I was thinking about what it meant that I grew up in a majority black city in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people. Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. There's Welcome to a boy

Starting point is 00:02:12 Taylor he's out of the office today Delaney Walker shout out Delany Walker joining Busing with the boys
Starting point is 00:02:18 we're going to be talking Christmas traditions, tear talk with Christmas movies, shittiest moments. I'm kind of thinking maybe our shittiest Christmas of all time. Shittiest moment that involves Christmas. Overly direct take. We do have a couple surviving bars still, the weekend recap.
Starting point is 00:02:33 And more after we talk to you about the Chevy Silverado. There's a new family with unstoppable grit, and they're the official partners of Bus and the Boys. And that is the Chevy Silverado's ZR2 family. His the, what is it? Is the season? Season to be jolly. To be jolly.
Starting point is 00:02:51 For a reason. Your reason? The Chevy Silverado, the first ever Silverado, heavy-duty ZR-2 joins the franchise to make the Chevy ZR2 the only truck brand with the full line of trucks ready for wherever your off-road adventures take you. Their exclusive multimatic DSV dampers, rugged mud terrain tires, and up to 14 available camera views. The Chevy Silverado ZR2 and the Silverado HDZR2 is a family with commanding an unstoppable
Starting point is 00:03:16 Grit, head over to Chevy.com and check out to Sheppi Sovarado in the family of Chevys that they have to offer, the official trucks of busing with the boys. Delaney, welcome, welcome to busing, man. Hey, once again. Hey, I'm glad to be on the bus, man. I love being on the bus. I got to, we're going to, we got to dive into, because I was, what we were checking out the Up and Adams.
Starting point is 00:03:39 She was asking you about Derek Henry and his preface conference. Yeah, yeah. We might as well just dive in. All right. Yeah, let's do it. as ex-teammates, former teammates of the king. Yeah. What did you make?
Starting point is 00:03:50 What were you making of that press conference? Because he came in and you could tell it was like the first time that he was kind of alluding to. This was probably the last year with the Titans, which contractually makes sense. It's like he has his guaranteed money. He's guaranteed money's up. Yep. And you know how the business works.
Starting point is 00:04:04 The business. What did you take away from? You know, it's just waking up to it and just hearing what people were saying. Like, did you see what Derek said? Is this it for Derek? It was tough. I had to watch it. you know, in my eyes, it just seemed like a frustrated, drained Derek Henry.
Starting point is 00:04:21 He was just like out of it, you know, not being able to accomplish the goals that he probably set out for itself have been the best running back in the NFL, winning how many games, whatever he had his goal set out to. Not accomplishing that makes you feel like, is this it for me? Is this anything better that I can do or be on a team that's better than this situation? and then also having them talk about shopping him, which we don't know if that's true, but that's the talk that was going around the locker room was that they were trying to shop Derek Henry.
Starting point is 00:04:53 So with that being said, everything that he said in that press conference, I just felt like he was being honest. He don't know where his future lies because this is a business. Will the Titans pay him again or will he get more money if he go somewhere else? But that also lies, do you go to a sorry team?
Starting point is 00:05:12 Or do you go to a team who's a computer? for a Super Bowl next year. And no one never knows. No one knows every year is different. So I don't know. I want to see Derek here with Tennessee, but they probably have to restructure his deal. He's not going to do that. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:27 Because he's one of the running backs who try to set forth their own players association for running back so they can get paid a certain amount of money. So I don't know if that, him taking a pay cut will be likely something he does. I just don't see that happening. Yeah, because you almost think like if you're Derek and you don't take the pay cut, then you kind of already know that the writing is probably on the wall just based on, you know, how the year is when. Yes.
Starting point is 00:05:56 So then it's like, do you go to, you know, do you go to a team that you could potentially win a championship with? Because say he goes to the market. Yeah. And they release him and he still doesn't get what he, you know. Deserves. Yeah, what he think he deserves. Yes. Of course.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Right. Right. Yeah, it's interesting. I think. You think there's any chance he retires? No. Okay. I just had that.
Starting point is 00:06:18 I had that. No, Derek is definitely going to, if Derek, if the Titans don't do anything to keep Derek here, Derek will go somewhere else. He will play another year. I still feel like he got a lot of gas in the tank. So, you know, we'll see, man. You know, I want to keep him here.
Starting point is 00:06:35 I would love to keep him in Tennessee, but I know I'm not the gym. I'm not the owner. Business is business. Yeah. They all stand on business when they come to it at the end of the day. The team going to stand on business and the player going to stand on business. It's a whole new league.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Katz is thinking it's the portal in the NFL. When they're just not happy, they're just ready to leave. So, you know, we'll see, man. We'll see. Damn, it's going to be tough. Yeah. Obviously, he needs, like, a spot where you have a viable offensive line. Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Because Titans need a lot of those picks. Garrett, Jack, what are your guys' thoughts as fans watching, like, you know, this could be the end of, you know, 22 and basically the tenure of, you know, that kind of Titans regime that was kind of led by Derek. Do you want to lead with this one, G? I feel like you as a Bama guy. Yeah, it'll be weird for sure because I've watched Derek run the ball for forever, it feels like coming from Alabama while I was there, Derek was running the ball,
Starting point is 00:07:32 and then gets drafted by the Titans, which was hype. We talked about it a little bit, but yeah, him addressing the, you know, kind of addressing it for the first time, really was, like, like and we're not doing you know we're not getting it done for him like we're not helping him so it'll be tough to see i it was scary when they were as talks about shopping him earlier in the year and then you win that game against elana and you're kind of like what's like are we good maybe maybe what's going on so now that the this vibe of the Titans is settled back in it's like damn yeah now there's decisions to be made which it'll be
Starting point is 00:08:12 weird. Yeah. Definitely sad. Derek's been monumental at the last, what, eight, nine years, eight years. So as a player, I will miss him dearly. It's going to be interesting to see where the identity of our franchise goes, because he's been the face for a while. I don't know who's going to fill that role,
Starting point is 00:08:31 and I think it'll probably take maybe a season or two to find the next Derek Henry, whether it's a running back, quarterback. I mean, it could be Will Levis, who knows. It's got to be will, right? I don't really think no one is going to have as much hype as Derek Henry had. I'm just going to be honest with you. I don't care who would. Backfield, right?
Starting point is 00:08:49 I'm talking about the team in general. Them doing the king, putting the crown on his helmet before games. Just like, that will never get that back when you lose Derek Henry. I'm just telling you, just straight up. I don't know how many players are like recreate moments, like the Jacksonville run and like things like that. They're like cornerstones now of our friends. franchise. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I do hope that the Titans, if they part ways, I hope they get him on a team where he can maybe have one last run at a deep playoff or just a successful season because
Starting point is 00:09:24 you hate to see such a influential player have like a lulled year and it's not necessarily his fault. So I hope I hope that the best happens for him in the last, however many seasons he has left. But fuck, man. It's going to be sad. We got to have a funeral for it. Yeah. Just dressing black, all black, come to the shop, lay a jersey down in the middle. I feel like when we get a decade removed,
Starting point is 00:09:51 like, when you look, when you think about the Titans, like it'll probably be Derek Henry. Yeah. When you say, like, over all the legends that have kind of played. Yeah. You think about Eddie and Steve. Yeah. You put Eddie Steve.
Starting point is 00:10:02 And, I mean, at this point, Derek may be the guy. Like, the number one. Number one. Titans franchise history. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, definitely the face. But there you go, because y'all got to remember, Derek came in with a face, went to Alabama,
Starting point is 00:10:16 stud in Alabama, falls in the draft, headlines. Derek Henry falls in the draft. This is the biggest thing. Who's going to get Derek Henry? I'm sitting in the green room there at the draft. I'm like, we about to get Derek watch. We're going to get Derek. Second round, 45th pick.
Starting point is 00:10:30 There you go. Comes in, doesn't play right away. DeMarco Murray. Marko, yeah. The DeMarco Murray having a year. Derek doesn't even touch the field. You get what I'm saying? And Derek gets his shine.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Every time Derek got in the game, he broke for like an 80-yarder. And it was like, okay, we got something in the making right here. You've seen it. So, I mean, Derek came with that hype. And I don't think we're going to ever have that hype again. And for what you say, you hope that the Titans put them on a team that's going to be runners. That's not going to happen. The team never give you to a team.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Only if it's a trade that they need. We've been doing it for the last thing. I know only if it's a trade that they really need. They didn't know the Eagles was going to be as good as they was once they traded AJ off to them like that. They're like, okay, the Eagles is good, but how good can they be? They're going to take AJ, you know, can they handle AJ? Well, they can.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Obviously, they're doing pretty well. So I don't know. I just don't think that he's going to go to the Eagles. I feel like if it's a team that Derek goes to, the Ravens. That would be a squad to go to them. They have the old line for it. But I see. They got the running game.
Starting point is 00:11:34 And I see them breaking, I see them giving him maybe a two-year contract worth. Hey, Derek. You know what I mean? What he will go play for for two years. They have young receivers. Yes, they do. I mean, they don't have to keep Odell. No.
Starting point is 00:11:47 You have Zay Flowers. You have, I think Rashar Bateman's probably going into his last year of his rookie deal. Likely been stepping up with Mark Andrews being out. So, I mean. That would suck. For Derek? Top three landing spots in the mic, by the way, for the people listening. Ravens got to be one.
Starting point is 00:12:15 What other system? The bills. I was going to say the bills. Now, the bills are now interesting because, like, yesterday, Josh Allen only threw the ball 15 times. Oh, yeah. Cook ran the ball almost 30 times. They ran the ball over 40 times, like, as a team.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Like, they're establishing the running back in the back field. We're back under center. And showing that they can do it. Like, maybe, yeah, bills could potentially be a home for them. Because they signed Cook to them one year, I think. At the beginning of the year, when you're thinking, It wouldn't be. It'd be a lot like, like, if you're thinking about Derek with the Chiefs,
Starting point is 00:12:51 like you're in a lot of, like, gun run game situation, which isn't Derek's forte. It's six yards deep, seven, whatever, you know, the offense and stuff. And it's, you know, running at somebody. Bills could be a spot. I was thinking about the Bengals. Do they have the, do they have like? They got, yeah, is he? This article is saying from top to bottom, Ravens, Bills.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Browns Browns would be Browns But Chubbs Stubb got hurt a lot Broke his snap His leg Like that's gonna be
Starting point is 00:13:28 Whether or not you have Chub They had Chubb and Cream Hunt Like Derek might not be a feature back Like They got Chubbord though Yeah Yeah Ford He'd be bawling too yeah
Starting point is 00:13:37 But Derek might look at him Like you know I know he wants to be the premier back But maybe based on Landing spots and money And everything else Like you could go somewhere And be more of a role guy
Starting point is 00:13:47 You think he wants to do that though? I don't know I have no clue. I don't think he wants to right now, but maybe, like, as you get into all the negotiations and kind of see the bigger picture, potentially, I mean, who knows? What's, uh... Cleveland would be a good one because that's a gap scheme team. Like, you got Bill Callahan, who, you know, similar to, like, the Cowboys, Bill kind of,
Starting point is 00:14:04 Calhane kind of built out that offensive's running game to the Cowboys, brought it to Washington. Like, that is a favorable system for somebody like Derek, because it isn't like a, you know, again, it's not like a gun-heavy scheme. It's duo. It's wide, it's a wide zone. Wide zone, duo. I think now that you all talk, I see the Cowboys, too,
Starting point is 00:14:23 has been a landing spot. America's favorite team gets Derek Harry. Do you know how, do you know, oh my God. He will be on everything. I'm telling you right now, he'll be on everything. Because now you look at it,
Starting point is 00:14:41 Derek got to look at it as, you know, how much, how many more miles do I have? Right. So do I go to a team that's going to get me more endorsements off the field and win games? Or do I go to a team where, you know, like almost similar to the Titans, you don't get a lot of endorsements. But you talked about because you're a great football player.
Starting point is 00:15:02 But outside of football is not as much that's out there in these bigger markets. You get what I'm saying? So do he see himself now? Do I go and tap the market and just, I'm out there now? I want to do commercials. I want to be seen. I got to be heard. Like, because I don't know how.
Starting point is 00:15:17 How many more, how much more I can run this ball the way I run the ball? Because the next step is going to be Derek can be on TV. You can do all that. You know, they love having faces like that. Right. He put on ESPN right after they're done. And too, like, and that's a good point. Dallas is a good point.
Starting point is 00:15:33 They might be number one. If you look at Pollard, him being the premier featureback isn't the same Pollard as when he was complimenting with Ezekiel Elliott. And Derek obviously brings that dynamic to where Pollard can still play to his strengths. and even as the Dallas offense, kind of like looks to next year and everything else. Like maybe Dallas could be like the number one spot based on he loves Texas, he loves Dallas.
Starting point is 00:15:55 That's where he trains in the off season. The marketability there is high. Yeah. The king going to Dallas. Oh, my gosh. Like winning off the fields with, that's A plus in Dallas. A plus.
Starting point is 00:16:06 So an A plus market, you're in the role to where somebody complements you to where you got a third down back. You got somebody who comes in, you know, passing downs, whatever it is in Pollard. And you got a quarterback that's stable. enough to win games and not you got cd you got cd lamb i don't think brandon kud is he's only one year though one year deal well you got jake ferguson you got it tight in you got it tight in you got
Starting point is 00:16:27 it tight in i mean yeah it could be dallas dallas could be one baltimore two buffalo bills three because i like the buffalo bills thought especially with uh what's his name joe brady now taking over as an o c they've been crushing it averaging like 30 points a game getting under center run on the the ball but those would be my three yeah mine's too i like that three i like that three. I think that's a good three. What else, before we move on outside the NFL, what else was happening? Cowboys are back to being the Cowboys. I mean, you.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Prime spot. Yeah, you know how it goes. You know how it goes. Prime spot to just think for a moment. Maybe. Maybe they might this. No. I thought they was.
Starting point is 00:17:05 I should have known, no. The bills, at the foreign O.C, I should have known the bills is back to being the bills and winning games. Back against the wall. They could be spicy now. putting a team together, like in December going into the playoffs. But the Dolphins still number one seed, though, correct? Dolphins?
Starting point is 00:17:23 Yeah, yeah, yeah. But still, a Buffalo can still, like, if they win out, they pretty much control their own destiny to get in. Oh, okay. But I think the bills are going to get back into the playoffs. And they're going to be tough. Like, you don't want to play the bills. I think they're ready to go on the road.
Starting point is 00:17:37 They're ready to do whatever it takes. They're like, they don't need to be a home team. Right now. Because early in the season, it was like, play the bills. We're going to smack them. He going to play backyard football. ball throw three picks we'll win the game now it's like who are these bills who are these dudes like they are a totally different team yeah and then you got uh dolphins look good even though it was against
Starting point is 00:17:57 the jets but still that was kind of like uh that was kind of like a g b o t for the dolphins because there's like question marks with them sustaining in any kind of offense without tyreek hill and two uh he essentially answered the bell at one point he was like was he 15 for 15 or 11 for he was He was throwing the ball really well, had touchdowns, had a lot of yards, like, without Tyreek in the first, like, two or three quarters with the Dolphins. So winning, like, 30 to nothing. I thought it was a big win for Miami. Well, they only said that because what happened against the Titans.
Starting point is 00:18:30 They literally was like, oh, they can't win a game without Tyreek because the Titans literally just shut them down. So that was the whole speculation. Like, they can't win a game without Tyreek. Yes, without Tyreek, the game is not exciting. They don't make plays and get their team hyped up. But he showed it with Wado. when Wado is healthy and he out there
Starting point is 00:18:47 wadowing on people, he make plays as well. I feel like they're the same player. They both excited. They are, but no one that Tyree goes out and your offense basically falls apart, like against a team, not like, again, not the shit on the Titans, but again, against a team like the Titans where if you're going to be a one-seed type team,
Starting point is 00:19:02 then you're going to be able to kind of like reload or still operate without an MVP candidate like Tyree. And I think it also played into, like last week, did you see Cam Newton talking about the game manager versus game changer? Uh-uh. You didn't see all. all that?
Starting point is 00:19:16 No, I didn't see that. There's a lot going around, like this video of his was going viral talking about which quarterbacks were game managers, which quarterbacks were game changers, kind of alluding to himself as a game changer, which is true. He was. I give him that. And he had two, he had like, who did he have in the game manager category? Brock Purdy, Tua, DAC.
Starting point is 00:19:36 He had some guys, he's like, these are game managers with pieces around him. I like that. But they're not game changers. That's true. He also called, who was Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, I think. than game managers as well. I don't know about that, though. I don't get, I don't know about that.
Starting point is 00:19:51 He said, Doc Purdy, Jared Gough, Tua, game managers, game changers, Arod, Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen and Lamar. Yeah, that's, that's, I can, I can concur with that. That sounds about right. I think what sucks is, if, for whatever reason, it feels like game manager is almost like a shot versus. It is a shot. That's a shot at you.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Like you, if you don't have these people around you, you're no good. That's a shot. Right. But if you're sitting there and you just put a game up like over the weekend, like, like, Tua. So he's just, if he didn't have Tyree Kill, he'd be a shitty quarterback. If he didn't have Waddle 2, yeah. Well, yeah, if you're removing all these good players, I feel like all that. That's what you got to look at it.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Some teams don't have any of these good players and they still putting games together. You got to look at it. If you want to put them in them same shoes, it's got to be the same shoes. Okay, okay. So early in the career, take Tyree Kill and Travis Kel, off the Chiefs. Is Patrick Mahomes still a game changer winning Super Bowls? Yes, we're seeing it right now. No, what are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:20:52 They do it. We're saying it right now. If the Chiefs, even, if the Chiefs go to the championship game, we've seen it right now. He only has one player right now. With Pacheco even being out, that's one player that he has. And that's Travis Kelsey. That's it. I don't disagree with you.
Starting point is 00:21:14 That's still a game. that's still a Hall of Fame player that you're playing with. Like, if Travis Kelsey would have been removed from the equation, all Patrick's entire career, you think, you're saying Patrick has the same success. And I'm not disagreeing. I think Patrick is a game-changing quarterback. But what I'm saying is, like, feeling like the game manager is a shot. It's like, yeah, because if we remove these players, it's like, to me,
Starting point is 00:21:36 you can do that with anybody. True. Technically. Like, I'm not thinking of all the teams that, like the Patriots had, but all these different teams that Tom Brady had, you had. a top defense in the league all the time. Yeah, yeah, all the time. You had Rob Gruncowski.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Yeah, all the time. One year you had Randy Moss. Like, you still have guys like Edelman. Like, yeah, Tom probably made Edelman a lot. But Edelman, like, based off his, like, background and pedigree, Edelman still made Tom what he was. I'll give you that. Tom could have been a manager because Tom, again, he didn't break tackles.
Starting point is 00:22:06 He didn't do none exciting. He just put you in the right positions, right? And you got to look at it. That's got a game-changing element to it. I would say that, too. I would say he's 50-50 because he can read defenses so well. He'd do a great audible, put us in a great play. But is he the guy that's going to do a Patrick Mahon?
Starting point is 00:22:24 Three dudes trying to tackle. He break a tackle. Another dude tackling him. He throws a 50-yard bomb as he falling on the ground. No, he's not going to do that. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:33 I think you're talking about Tom. But like if you want to do Impact player, do you want Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes on the last drive? I think you've got to go Tom Brady. Yeah. Yeah, like Tom Brady is, I feel like a no-brainer. What receivers do you have? What's the offense look like for us to choose?
Starting point is 00:22:52 What quarterback? You can't. I think Tom Brady. I'm part of it. It's just, do you want Tom Brady or Patrick Mahler? I think Tom Brady does more with less. I gave you that. Tom Brady won a Super Bowl with the second wide receiver being a lacrosse player
Starting point is 00:23:06 and Chris Hogan. Say that again? Tom Brady won a Super Bowl with their second leading receiver being a lacrosse player in Chris Hogan. He also is an NFL. play, though. No, he didn't. He didn't. And time out too, Mitch, like, that defense, again, I don't know what year, like,
Starting point is 00:23:21 they've won so many times. Like, yeah, Tom Brady's the goat, no question, no, no thoughts about it. But it's like, okay, that year, whereas Chris Hogan, it's, it's, their defense could have been in, nasty. But I was just going to say, what was they defense like, though, that year? Like, yeah. It's like, I don't know. Like, I see, I definitely understand.
Starting point is 00:23:41 I feel like what Cam is saying. I just think it sucks that these dudes get labeled as, like, I know. Oh, you're this. You can't really get out of this box if you don't have these players around you. Because I think it takes away from some of the big plays that they have made. It's like, you know, it's like people talk about Brock Purdy. Like anybody could be a quarterback back there and they're going to look like Brock Purdy.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Well, all of those guys he listed that are game managers have 10 wins. And that's they manage in the game. Wins or wins. Yeah, wins is win. It's like football is the ultimate, ultimate team game from coach to player to offense, defense. Like, it takes so many elements. It's like, yes, Tua has an insane brainiac as a head coach, but it's like, I don't, the success he had at Bama and everything else, like the kid is still a fucking winner. It's like, that's still like, you're still essentially a game changer in that regard.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Yeah, I mean, I understand that. I think it's just whoever looking at it, you know what I mean? It's everyone who is how you look at that. It's how you looking in the glass. Like, you know, Tua went to Alabama. They had studs there. You know what I mean? his first year in Miami what happened
Starting point is 00:24:46 With who? Tua. First year in Miami. No offensive line. And so bad, right? Get new offense. You get offensive line. You build around him. You bring in Tyreek.
Starting point is 00:24:58 You get all these guys to build around him to make him great. That's how you make a quarterback great. You've got to build around them. I don't care if you a playmaker or are you managed the game. If you build your team around your quarterback, he will be successful no matter.
Starting point is 00:25:14 what. I don't care if he is just a manager. He can, he just managed the game. He doesn't do anything as saying, but just win games. Who cares? Because why they drafted Waddle and went and got Tyreek. There you go. There you go. And fast running backs. That's it. Because they, they was like, let's build around this guy. We know what he can do well. Let's have the guys who can do that. He can roll out well. He can throw the ball. He's a lefty that, which is not common in NFL. You know what I mean? A lefty quarterback being able can roll out both sides and still throw the ball, So, I mean, at the end of the day, Miami just did a good job but just getting some cast guys to help him out and be successful.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Yeah, I'm just sitting here thinking of so many different ways. I guess you can ask that question. It's like, ultimately, do you want to build your franchise around a game changer or a game manager? The only person on the field touches the ball. Every play. I don't know. I'd rather have a...
Starting point is 00:26:07 Because you almost look like Peyton Manning is the ultimate game manager, right? Yep. Yes, but he's the best to do it, too. though, so I don't think it's a knock. And maybe in your eyes you see it as a knock, but I don't know. I just think that's different different styles of play. I feel like the way the clip came off. Oh, the clip.
Starting point is 00:26:26 It started as like it was a knock. But then it opened up such a big discussion on. Then he, Cam went on and had a very good rebuttal to why, like everybody, essentially everybody was even attacking him. Yeah, yeah. It's like, you know, that's what happens in me, right? That's what happens in the game that we're in now. But it opened him up to have a very, like, well put together,
Starting point is 00:26:45 rebuttal about it all that kind of explained the two, which, again, I thought his first clip, it almost came off. Like, these guys are game managers. They're not game changes. They're not actually, it felt like he's saying they weren't actually really good players. They were just players in a really good system around him. That's even tough to say, you can't, I would never say a player ain't good enough. If he's the starting quarterback at some point, he's been good at his job.
Starting point is 00:27:11 And that's why he got the job, you know what I mean? But who knows? Kim, who knows how he was coming off with it? He got the views that he wanted. Oh, no, no doubt. That thing did numbers. I know when I looked at his rebuttal, that thing had like 20 million videos. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:27:24 He got the, he got what he wanted. He's winning in this game. He's got this game figured out. But should we talk about Duke Cannon and all that they have, and all they have to offer this Christmas season, this holiday season, a big-ass lump of coal, illegally cut pine soap, malls, cough, syrup soap, Rudolph's much to deserve nightcap soap and oops, all brandy homemade eggnog soap.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Duke Cannon has a collection of holiday products that men actually like, give the boys something they deserve, like any of these big ass lumps of soap like the lump of coal from Duke Cannon. The holiday gifts are made in the USA by humans, not elves. These gifts aren't going to break the bank and they make perfect for stocking stuffers, for your father-in-law, your boys, or that cousin you barely like. Find the holiday soaps and gifts sets at Walmart Target or Dube's. Duke Cannon.com, not for clowns for the boys.
Starting point is 00:28:15 Did you see this tweet from Richard Menin Hall this morning? No. What do you say? We got to discuss it. I'm pulling it up. Give me one second. It is. Is he talking about the Steelers or is he just kind of?
Starting point is 00:28:27 No, it is juicy. You can go ahead and just read this will and then y'all go ahead and just go into an open format. Whoa, right off the job? Oh, shit. Right off the job. Here's Rashar Mendenhall. I'm sick of average white guys commenting on football.
Starting point is 00:28:45 Y'all not even good at football. Can we please replace the Pro Bowl with an all-black versus all-white bowl so these cats can stop trying to teach me who's good at football? I'm better. I'm better than your goat. I'll tell you right now, Rashar. He got hacked. He had to get hacked.
Starting point is 00:29:00 You think so? I don't know. He just brought us back 50 years. He got hacked. He got hacked. I know this, he ain't blocking a punt if I'm sitting on him. He got hacked, bro. He didn't write that.
Starting point is 00:29:18 That is so wild. He's been up in 45 this morning. He had to get high. Yeah, bro. If he's hacked, he's deleting that. That's deleted already. That's a real tweet. And he already got 3.8 million views.
Starting point is 00:29:31 Well, you know that's going to take off. 3,000 comments, 1,000 likes. He got ratios by his own. Oh. Yeah, let's talk about it. Wait up, wait up. The first comment. Somebody said, I'm sick of average running backs fumbling.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Oh, somebody's shooting on them. It's like an average runnerbacks fumbling the ball away in the most important game. He's promoting the Civil War Bowl. Yeah. Yeah, that's, oh my God. Line it, line them up. He got, okay, this was a drunk text, drunk tweet. He was mad because he was reading all.
Starting point is 00:30:05 No, this is 45 a.m. this morning. This is this morning. He's drunk. Because he was, Hey, he was, listen to me. He was, you know, when you have a bad game, you can't stay off Twitter, you can't stay off reading stuff,
Starting point is 00:30:18 and it's getting to him. Hang on, Rashard, though, he's done playing. He's not even playing anymore. He's been retired for, I don't know how long. And he, what, and he posted that? You see what JJ Watson? Yeah, we get cooked at corner, not going to lie, nobody on our squad is covering Tyreek.
Starting point is 00:30:33 That's a fair point. We're going to have to win through run game, control the clock. We're going to have to get a couple turnovers. Why did he post that if there ain't nobody talking about him? That's a nice clap back, JP. That's exactly why, Rashad. Wait, so did he post anything else after that?
Starting point is 00:30:59 No, he's letting it ride. Like, that's why you know it's a real tweet. Yeah, he's retweeted now. So he's showing, like, you know, I love that JJ have fun with it. Like, that is hilarious. Break it down. Running back. I can't believe he said that.
Starting point is 00:31:12 A pro bowl. that's all black versus all white. I think it gets interesting. I think we got a shot. Who? Who? I think we're, I think we're hurt is the back seven.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Yeah, all DBs. Yeah. No, y'all ain't got too many. Y'all ain't got enough. Yeah, we ain't got enough. What's the plucky old buddy from Iowa who got, who was a second rounder out of Iowa, I think to the Panthers.
Starting point is 00:31:41 So do we count the Samoans black or white? They're out. That's a fair point. Yeah, yeah, they're excluded. What? Man, you can't leave nobody out. Well, he just said all black versus all white. What do you draw a line in the same?
Starting point is 00:31:59 But what do they consider they so? The minority, right? Do they get to say the M word? Yeah. Then they probably get to be on the black team. Cool, we got them. That's obviously need to know. You know, we got to make this shit.
Starting point is 00:32:12 So you starting Tua at quarterback? Nah, who we got? I'm going to have to do. Puka Nacua? Oh, Puka, yeah, we got Puka. I'm going to do Lamar. Lamar be the starter, and then Tua be the backup. They got the Sean Lauer out.
Starting point is 00:32:29 Okay. So our running back, who's your running back? Because ours is Christian McCaffrey. Mine's is Derek Henry. Hang up. We got that one. What should be? Christian McCaffrey?
Starting point is 00:32:42 Okay, your O-line. I think we put together a better white O-line than y'all do. No, I got it. It's even. It's got to be even. Who's your center? Who's operating? I'll give you my center from the Titans.
Starting point is 00:33:00 Who, Kevin Mouye back today? No, no. Yeah, Brewer. Hey, bring up, bring up the Pro Bowl teams from last year. We can at least start off that. We can at least start off that. I don't know who was. Ronny Stanley.
Starting point is 00:33:11 No, Ronley Stanley, he's a tackle. He's good. I mean, he's a monster. It would be a black center. It was, it was Rodney Hudson. He hadn't been playing. He's out. He hadn't been playing.
Starting point is 00:33:24 And then the brothers, the, the, um. You don't see, they're retired. They're out. Yeah, they're out. Yeah, they're out. I mean, they have a strong left tackle, though. Yeah, we do. Trent.
Starting point is 00:33:36 81% of NFL centers are white. Damn. We got. You know. We got one black guy out there right now. He's tiny, but. At quarterback, who is, so you're probably taking, are you taking Lamar or Mahomes? Oh, yeah, I got both of them, huh?
Starting point is 00:33:52 I'm going to take Mahomes. Where's Mahomes toss up? Because he is. He's 50-50. Yeah, Mahomes can flip out. He depends on what he put on the paper when they be like, what? We got Burrow. We got Burrow.
Starting point is 00:34:02 He hurt. Josh Allen, you got a lot of people. Y'all got a lot of people. Y'all got a lot of quarterbacks. Yeah, we got quarterbacks. At receiver, we have to get creative. You're going to get creative at receiver. We got...
Starting point is 00:34:13 Under Renfro, first ballot. Yeah. Yeah, I'm A.J. Brown, Smith. And then, um... You got us at. You got us at receiver. Tight-in, you got us at Tite-in. We got you all tight in.
Starting point is 00:34:28 I got us at Tite-in. I was Kelsey. Mark Andrews. Even Jake Ferguson. I mean, y'all got... San Loporta. Jake Ferguson. Yellow-a-Lopoda.
Starting point is 00:34:36 I got, I mean... We got Katz. We got Cooper Cup. We got Cooper Cup. Cup. He ain't doing that right now. Y'all can have. We puka right.
Starting point is 00:34:44 Hey, come on. He ain't doing nothing right now. We got Cooper Cup. But y'all, y'all. You're just out of receiver. Oh, he's dealing. Oh, yeah, and then Philip from the Titans. Phillips.
Starting point is 00:34:57 Yeah. Jackson, Barryos. Clout. Oh, and Hunter Renfro. Oh, yeah. Hunter, Redfro. Trent Taylor. Is he still playing?
Starting point is 00:35:10 Hang on, hang on, hang on. Sit right there at the line. Stay down. See, look at the O-line. Like, we got Quentin Nelson, Ryan Kelly. White-Teller. We got Dionne Dawkins. Wyatt-Teller.
Starting point is 00:35:25 Joe Bettini. What is that? Joe Bettini? Betonio? I mean, we got you on the O-line. Yeah, the O-line, definitely. O-line for sure. I mean, D-line gets interesting.
Starting point is 00:35:40 D-line gets interesting. I would say D-line 50-50. I would say D-line is 50-50. We got Max, T.J. Watt, JJ, Watt. JJ could come out of retirement. He could play. He won't come out of retirement.
Starting point is 00:35:51 He could play. He comes out of retirement for a game like that. You have to be in the game. It's Pro Bowl. Max, T.J. Ray Hendrickson. Yeah. Oh, DeBosso.
Starting point is 00:36:03 Oh, the Bosa brothers. The Bosa. Oh, yeah, bro. The Watt. Yeah, yeah. And we're also playing some sound defense, too. Like, you saw that. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:36:15 Hang on, hang on. You saw over the weekend, the bills, like when you got a, like, you got a turnover machine of a defense and pass rushers everywhere with the Cowboys, you run the ball right at their face. We'll be able to establish a run game. Oh, yeah, no, definitely. We're going to have to keep the ball out of your offense's hands because we'll be a liability on the back end. On the back end, yeah, with the receivers, yeah, makes sense. Y'all pretty much winning linebacker, too, though. You got, y'all got some backers. Middle linebacker, not outside linebackers. Fred Warner.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Yeah, we got Fred, Cleo Mac. Roquan Smith. Roquon. Yeah, y'all got Roquan. Patrick Queen, he's a monster. Yeah. Al-Shiree from the Titans, he's a monster.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Yeah. Our best guys are retired. Sitting right here. About special teams. Ooh. Sorry. Enjoy going for two every time. Everybody will be going for two.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Yeah, who y'all got for two? Punting and kicking. We got a punter. Pissboro Steelers' punter. He's black. Yeah. Y'all, what about young? Minority.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Special teams is about effort and want to. We might have y'all edged out. You might. Because most, yeah, you might. I don't know. Yeah. We don't have any kicker, though. It's not a black kicker out there right now.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Chad Ocho Cinco coming back. Chad Ocho got to do. Oh, no, Reed. Read for the safety. Yeah, the safety, yeah. It'd be a good game. Yeah. All white versus all black.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Running back, the edge is us. Christian McCaffrey. Derek Henry. Bro, like, if you're going off this year, Derek's got like 400 and something yards total this year. Like, what are you talking about? If you put Derek into 49ers offense, he'd be dominant. This isn't, this is not a 49ers offense.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Number one, Kyle Shanahan's white. You got to find a different head coach. The Steelers. So right now, as it stands, coaching staff, us, running back, us. I mean, that's not fair. They just start hiring black people with coaches. Like, come on, man. Lindenhall made this up.
Starting point is 00:38:43 All right, yeah, listen, listen, this ain't bustling with the boys. We're going on Minden all here. Just know everybody. Online, us, receiver. Us. Y'all, yes. D-Bs us. So close.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Quarterback, toss up. Toss up. Quarterback, it could go anyway. Either way, that's a very balanced. Even and that. So it's running back if we're doing that. Like, I think we just have Christian McCaffey. Yeah, that's about it.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Yeah. Yeah. He can't get hurt. Fullback? Oh, yeah, you got a buddy from the Raven. No, no, from juice. Ricard? We got a blocking fullback.
Starting point is 00:39:15 And we got juice if we want to get. Yeah, it ain't, it ain't too many more. I think we get Alec. I think we met Alex. You see how he cuts his hair? He's like a white guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, he's black.
Starting point is 00:39:27 No, and he went to Wisconsin. He black. That dude, daddy black or something. So a receiver, y'all got it. Tight-end, us. I get y'all that tight-end. D-line? They got Michael Sam.
Starting point is 00:39:39 Us. Wait, D-line? D-line is pretty balanced. I mean, this year, I would give me. Pass rushers, us. The last two years, the white guys has been taking over a bit prior years. How about this? How about this?
Starting point is 00:39:54 been all black dudes prior years. How about this? The black dudes was the best. You had Cleo Mac. You had... So we're talking, that's pass rushers. Yeah, you just said pad rusher. Yeah, I would say that's balanced, but I think we got...
Starting point is 00:40:06 We got cast. Y'all killing it right now. I think we have more depth. You're not killing it right now. Like, they're playing way better. Interior D-line might be y'all. Yeah, interior D-line gave you that. Your D-line might be all.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Backers. White dudes. Eddie. Eddie. Josie Jewel. Yeah, I think the white dudes got us in backers. Yeah, he's a dog. are going to eat corners.
Starting point is 00:40:26 We're eating a lot. Yeah, corner. Back in, y'all have the edge. But I know we got, I mean, we got a safety. Harrison. Yeah. Christian doesn't have enough reps, though. Yeah, Harrison Smith.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Harrison Smith. They're both. They're both black. Yeah. They just light-skinned it. Y'all got it. But, but here's a, here's a metric that we have to think about. Two weeks.
Starting point is 00:40:51 Yeah, special teams, effort and one two. That's us. That's not. Two weeks to prepare. I'm taking the all-white squad. What do you say? Yeah. He said,
Starting point is 00:41:01 too, the dudes is dumb out there. I don't know. That would be interesting. I just don't, it'll never happen. Because that is just, it'll be crazy.
Starting point is 00:41:16 I don't never happen. You might just have to come up with a bus and bowl. That shit would be white to decide. It's just like literally go right back in time. Why it's the only water fountain? Right. Just so do I pay the water bottle's going around? No, no.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Why not? He's the Pro Bowl team for this year. We'll have to. Oh, yeah, let's draw the line. Yeah, yeah, let's do it. It might not be good for us. Yeah, I know, I know. At the end of day, our back in is getting cooked.
Starting point is 00:41:46 Yeah. We truly have to get a couple turnovers. It won't be no white D.Bs. Control the clock. Run the ball. It'll be zero at the pro bowl. promised you. Zero white dudes. At DB, I promise you.
Starting point is 00:41:59 Oh, Jason Seahorn maybe? Jason Seahorn, yep, Jason Seahorn. That's honestly it. Like, yeah, there's really, we're truly hurting on the back end. I used to think he was black, too, back in, because he always wore the long sleeve, because he was, like, one of the best corners. He was pulling everybody. A lot of zone defense.
Starting point is 00:42:16 We'd have to play a lot of zone defense. Try to get your hands on them. I know they're fucking quick. There's probably some like B2 guys that are out there that we could we could bring in. Some scrappy. Yeah, some scrappy cats. Oh, they definitely on the practice squad for sure. There's some guys out there.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Now we have practice squad guys covering the best. The best. The best. The entire league. Overing JJ and A.J. Brown and Hyrie. We ain't got nobody covering those cats. No. Pressure, pressure.
Starting point is 00:42:51 That would be, yeah. Y'all got to blitz everyone. Yeah. The NFL's 64 current starting cornerbacks are black, as are their backups. Wow. No way. No way. Troy Apke broke the NFL's 18-year run without a white cornerback.
Starting point is 00:43:10 Dude. Got out Troy, man. Oh, he can run, run. Okay. Hey, that is crazy. Y'all got a 450 game. Y'all can't even play. Let's y'all go on defense.
Starting point is 00:43:23 over. There are only two. So there are 15 corners in the pro football Hall of Fame, only two are white. Dick Leboe and Roger, I don't know how to press. Oh, yeah, I forgot about Dick Lebo. Leboe. We got them.
Starting point is 00:43:35 The 1960s. Yeah, I know. And the other guy was in the 70s. Yeah. So I'm pretty sure they, in the 60s, were they in allowing guys? They was, but they was not every, not everyone. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:49 Yeah, y'all's defense might. Yeah. Might eat us up. But for Dick Lobo, he was a beast, though, when he did play. He used to tear shit up. Well, yeah, you're already. Dick back. Back in the sixth.
Starting point is 00:44:03 He's alive? Yeah, Dick Leboe still alive. I'm trying to, yeah, I'm trying to run through these scenarios. It'd be, it'd be tough. It'll be a crazy guy. I'm shocked he even posted that, though. God. That's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:44:16 And thank God you're on the bus today, not Taylor. Yeah, Rels is this really weird. We'd be kind of thinking like, yeah, well, maybe we should. should leave this one along. Yeah. But hey, shout of Richard for giving a fun little, opening up a fun little conversation. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:44:33 Do you want to talk about surviving bars stool at all? Yeah. Ooh. You can talk about that. Yeah. There was one question from Coach Sean Bell. He said, who was the biggest snake? Who did you think was the biggest snake in surviving barstool?
Starting point is 00:44:47 Maybe even rank them. Yeah. Top three. Top three snakes are just top three players. You do both. probably Jerry Snake the biggest snake I mean Jerry yeah Jerry knew he had to stab people in the back
Starting point is 00:44:58 he knew he had to play like a long game like whenever he got Dave out I remember he said a little side comment to me like they forgot I was in the street so like he like Jerry had a better game than it you know then it kind of like looked yeah then it looked because it got kind of stolen from him throughout the game
Starting point is 00:45:19 because the Windy City mafia as they're being coined ultimately wanted one of their guys to win because PFT and Big Cat didn't have as much of a... Now watching back, you could probably tell that they wanted to be... They should have approached you like they should have wanted to win, but they wanted one of their guys to win. Jerry, Rico, and even Che.
Starting point is 00:45:38 But as the game unfolded, Chee was a zero, as far as getting zero votes. Rico kind of hurt himself, and Rico thought he was below Jerry, which he was, like if you're looking at the pecking order. And so Jerry ultimately he was getting carried until kind of like that final final five. So he wasn't getting a whole lot of credit even though he was playing like a really good game. Because everybody, once they got eliminated,
Starting point is 00:46:01 Dave, Dan, and all of them, they were arguing making it kind of like amongst them versus like Jerry made a good move. Yeah, PFCA. Yeah. Like if Jerry was going to re-correct and still be a real player, he should have stabbed PFT in the back after getting Dave to let everybody know.
Starting point is 00:46:16 Like, he's playing to win the game and he was just making the best move he thought was necessary. And now you say they wanted Dave boys to win it just because they wanted them to win 100K pretty much. Is that what you're saying? Right, right, right, right. Because Big K and PFT, like, you know, they're obviously, they're high up paid. Like, Gaz, I thought it was hilarious
Starting point is 00:46:32 in the first episode. He was even saying it during the first day, he's like, hey, we got to eliminate the poor people. Like, we're actually going to have a shot of winning. It's just hilarious. Although it's like nobody, everybody's getting compensated well that was in that group. But yeah, they wanted one of their guys to win. And then, like, the Windy City
Starting point is 00:46:48 Mafia, you're able to take credit as a team that they won the game. Yeah. And so, like, New York, they had, it was like KFC and fights. You knew that they were a duo. They were just lacking in numbers. They didn't have the influence in pool. Like, we want one of our people to win type of thing.
Starting point is 00:47:04 Like, it was just them too. Yeah. They wanted to come out on top and just show that, hey, who would have thought we were going to make it here before the game started? Because before the game, it was all about Chicago having numbers and making it far and all that sort of thing. So the way it unfolded, like, ended up working out ultimately in my favorite. but to the New York guys, they were excited. That's why KFC was.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Did y'all have any idea what games were going to be played, though? No, not until we found the papers. Oh, okay, yeah. Did you watch anything of it? I watched a little bit of that. That's why I wanted to make C. When they stole the papers and figured that out, they knew the duct tape game.
Starting point is 00:47:41 We didn't. Y'all, okay. They saw so they were able overnight look at the best ways to kind of like duct tape somebody to the wall. Not only that, but PFT sabotaged our board by putting vegetable oil on it. No, because there's someone I wanted. I'm like, damn, it seemed like they knew what this game was already going to be like because some, you can see them start off as and the other people like kind of figuring it out.
Starting point is 00:48:00 I'm like, oh, they kind of, did they know or like what was? The only one that helped out would have been the duct tape one. But like we got the papers. We knew that there was a memory game. But again, you're not able to predict like what order or any of that stuff. We knew that there was going to be a hurt feelings game. And so our kind of guys crew tried voting like one answer. So that way we left it, you know.
Starting point is 00:48:22 we had as much like equality as possible so that way we could try to eliminate somebody from like the Chicago side. Yeah, yeah. But they ended up jumping on that being like, hey, you have to answer this stuff for real and they're going to mix the order up anyway, so it's not going to matter.
Starting point is 00:48:35 The shapes one, we kind of like knew that there was going to be a puzzle shape one, but again, we're blindfolded so you're not able to actually prepare for it. The bag toss. Like we knew that there could be some element of a bag toss, but we just didn't know what it was. Okay.
Starting point is 00:48:48 And then it was like taking the chairs and racing it all the way around, collide, send it up on the thing. Like, you can have the game and know what's going on there, but you still don't have like an upper hand. You still got to play. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:58 But so, no, that didn't help us a whole lot, like, once we found the papers and that sort of thing. How was the camera crew, though, like when y'all wasn't doing anything? Like, what was the camera crew like? Was they in your constantly in your face? Yeah, they're constantly trying to run and keep the camera on us. Because there'll be times where I'm trying to have conversations, like, off the record. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:49:17 You just don't know if you're saying it in front of the camera, like, if it'll get to somebody. Because I would try to pry. from producers like, hey, what's so-and-so thing and what's this? But they did a good job keeping it all in and not saying a whole lot. Yeah. But I was always nervous that if I said something in front of them that maybe it left it up for them to say it to somebody else that they might have wanted to win. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:35 So I tried doing a lot of my conversations as much as possible outside of the cameras and confessional or like after bedtime, like whenever they would leave. So, oh, so when y'all really went to sleep, they left. They would leave at 11 p.m. every night. Oh, okay. Okay. And so when I was going into the final five or six, like I had a really long conversation with Chey
Starting point is 00:49:56 and learned a lot more about like his interests actually were because Che was allied with so many people. I couldn't really tell he was a wild card to me because he was kind of stone-faced the whole time. And then he would just say, do what's best for Will Compton and that. Like, I'm thinking to myself like,
Starting point is 00:50:12 Che, I'm trying to show you my interest. I want to get you farther. Number one, I know you're not going to win. So I want you to be next to me. But also he was such a swing guy that I couldn't really nail down what his interests were. So we sat up one night and talked a long time to where I knew he was going to vote for Jerry. Or he would never vote for Jerry once Jerry told me that, hey, Jay's good for it. He's not going to vote for you.
Starting point is 00:50:36 Once I had that kind of validation from Jerry, I kind of knew. I was like, okay, now I'm back in the driver's seat of being the swing guy. I can kind of eliminate whoever I want to. Because what I was nervous about is Che was such a swing guy that he was going to go with the alliance that he had. had with KFC and fights because he had that trio with him. And that's why I was so scatterbrained, like when it was the final five, because I'm like, if these guys are actually smart, they'll eliminate me because I have the best resume. But when I knew after that long hour conversation with Che or two hours, maybe at nighttime after cameras left, I knew that Jerry was truly allied and emotionally
Starting point is 00:51:13 with Jerry. Yeah. Because they had their carpool system and they talked a lot. Like he knew, I knew that he was never going to write Jerry's name down. So when Jerry told me, hey, he's good for it on KFC, and he kind of gave me the whole mafia talking. He was like, all you got to do is write down three letters. KFC. And I was chuckling, but I was like, okay, this is the assurance that I needed. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:38 I know that I'm the swing guy. But it's shocking because I feel like you was the only guy from busing. So for them that, and all of them kind of like is in the same circle. So when I found out you won, I thought you would have been that dude. They was like, let's get him out of the way because you're on busing. And no one else there was from busing.
Starting point is 00:51:58 They should have. But that was where I was like trying to do my best to like, ally myself with just enough. Because I knew that KFC and fights were never going to talk to the Chicago side, nor vice versa. So I could be a guy who goes over to both always. And as long as I knew that whenever I made a move,
Starting point is 00:52:16 like there wouldn't be a lot of negative repercussions. from it, like making an enemy to where, like, you know, ultimately when you eliminate somebody, they're going to be on the jury. Yeah, yeah. So you almost need to be in good rapport with them, like once they get eliminated. Because Rico is going to vote Jerry the entire time.
Starting point is 00:52:31 That's why Jerry kind of got pissed off at Rico is because there's going to be, no matter what, whoever got to the end. I knew having Che, Chee couldn't vote for Jerry, so he couldn't write Jerry's name down. And then PFT, I knew he was going to vote for Jerry. Big Cat, I knew I was kind of swaying him to vote for me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:47 And then Hank was going to hopefully vote for me, but he ended up voting for Jerry because it was so known that I was probably going to win. Yeah. That they gave him, they just knew that they could essentially save face by voting for Jerry. Okay. But then I flipped Rico, because Rico throughout the week was like, we got close and we were having fun and he was like, yo, you're playing a hell of a game. Like, I'm going to vote for gamesmanship over voting for the loyalty thing because
Starting point is 00:53:07 basically whichever Chicago guy got in there, all the Chicago guys were going to vote for that dude. Oh, yeah, of course. Before the game started. Yeah, that was their game. It went the way it went. So I was like, I need to eliminate as many Jerry votes as possible. Jay being next to me was one,
Starting point is 00:53:19 but also Che was never going to get a vote. Yeah. Because everybody hated him for, you know, whatever reasons they were making up. So, yeah, it worked out. Well, it worked out for you, though, just like you said, because you really had no,
Starting point is 00:53:32 you can play both sides. You know what I mean? The whole time, just because you being like the Long Ranger kind of set you up for that victory. Did you guys have any, you guys got any topics of conversation? I know you guys all watched it, right?
Starting point is 00:53:46 Like, I know Jack did. I thought the only thing Like I think you obviously played the best game and like therefore sure to won But the one thing that stuck out for me is Dave's Message to Jerry I thought went a little bit too far But that's also kind of Dave Of those messages Dave though yeah
Starting point is 00:54:04 But like some of the Yeah The shit that he was saying to Jerry was like Come on dude like he's been through the ringer Like and he's made something of himself like And you're bringing that all back up saying everything was staged. Like I thought that got a little out of pocket, but overall I was really, really enjoyed. You didn't think he was trying to get in his head, though, like when he was saying all of that?
Starting point is 00:54:26 I mean, sort of, I guess, a little bit, but kind of like, just kind of, you just wanted to prove that, like, no, I'm a better person because I shook, shook my hand and stuck to my word and you didn't. So I'm going to prove to everybody that I'm a better person than you trying to just kind of put Jerry like a pedestal below. Yeah. something like that. I thought that Dave's just hilarious. Just asking like, he's your mom a paid actor. Like that I thought that Kirk,
Starting point is 00:54:53 his shit was out of hand. He called Stephen Shane's four-year-old daughter a cunt. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. When he was out of pocket. Yeah. We got to talk about those things. Like, we went on Kirk Show the next day
Starting point is 00:55:04 and then we talked about it on, I think both Barstool Radio and another one. I can't remember. But yeah, I mean, ultimately, the best analogy is that Barstool, universe is essentially
Starting point is 00:55:16 the WWE of media. Like if you know going into it, I kind of know, yeah. I was telling Charo, my wife, like as we were going in there, because I knew some of those things were coming. She was invested in the game and she wanted to go and watch the last episode with us and then watch kind of the reunion. I was like, sweetheart,
Starting point is 00:55:33 like, I want you to go because you're invested in surviving barstool and you're looking for entertainment and some chaos. Because that is what it's about to have. You're about to hear some really offhanded stuff. family related, which will feel different. Yeah. But I want you to go knowing that there's going to be chaos versus like going there to support me.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Because if it's just to support me, like stay home. Stay home. I want you to go because you want to watch. You want to see all this stuff through. You want to kind of see the chaos because it was like I knew that moment was going to be a little, little dicey. But it's like as a WWU character, all these people are trying to perform in the ring. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:10 So that's kind of how I separate the two. that's how I look at it too I did hate hearing that like I kind of put my head down next to Che and I'm thinking like yo are you gonna like say anything or step up like you know to his credit too
Starting point is 00:56:23 it's like he kind of just stayed like in character he kind of just stayed in character he just stayed in character I mean you gotta expect that though with the with the barstool guys like every time I go there I just got to expect when you be like
Starting point is 00:56:37 we're gonna do that I'm like oh shit and then it's something gay or something You know, so he's like, Lenny, what's the coolest way to jerk off? What? As soon as I walk in. But all you got is Tim's on butt-necked. I'm like, what?
Starting point is 00:56:52 So you got to expect that. And I understand sometimes, yeah, going into character, you get out, you get too crazy. But again, I think y' all know that. Yeah, that's Kirk's thing. Yeah. I think Boston. That makes a lot of sense.
Starting point is 00:57:09 He was my favorite kind of. going throughout the whole week. Like, we kind of like, you know, we were going to be like a little duo. We knew at some point we were going to have to snake each other, but we knew that we could kind of use, like, leverage what we had. Hey, let's bring Che along. I think ultimately if we get to the merger, we can get to Rico,
Starting point is 00:57:25 we can get to Tommy. And I know he's more allied with Rico. Like, that's where I would have fell off and then kind of had to make my own snake move when we got there. But Kirk was kind of like the dude who had like the rational understanding of, hey, yes, this is our benefit. Let's ride it as far as we can go. but when you had to eventually like cut ties with fights was that hard yeah it felt like he was
Starting point is 00:57:47 even in the end kind of like you didn't want to like go one on one yeah like he was the one that i kind of was like i don't want to hurt fights i know like when we tried eliminating fights when it was 10 of us left and we still had our crew and then chafe flipped and didn't go fights um that sucked because what they didn't show on that that episode when we all, when Kirk and I pick fights and then them three picked Kirk to go out and they stay, Che turned his back on Kirk. What they didn't show is before that elimination happened, I felt I felt I felt bad enough to where I told Kirk, I said, hey, I'm going to tell KFC and let him know because I don't want them to see, because no matter what, we're going to still need KFC on our
Starting point is 00:58:27 side, like when this happens. And so I pulled KFC into the studio, their studio and I was like, hey man, like, I'm just telling you this out of respect. And because we have the numbers, but we're getting fights. And it's three verse two. Like, Che's going to vote with us. We got the numbers. I just wanted to let you know because this sucks, but ultimately we feel like this is what we have to do to go farther,
Starting point is 00:58:52 is eliminate fights because we're going to have to split you guys up eventually. And he put on a hell of an acting performance in front of me. And he was like, so I can still vote for fights. I said, yeah, or he goes, I can still vote for Kirk. I'll say, yeah, vote Kurt because that'll say face with fights. but I just wanted to kind of let you know how to respect that we have the numbers, we're getting fights. I want you to know because we're still,
Starting point is 00:59:12 we still would like to rock with you, but we understand if you want to cut ties. He put on a hell of an acting performance. They ended up flipping. That is why I ultimately doubted Che in the long run, like when KFC was like, you should have just trusted it. And I was like, bro, I tried telling you I wanted Che without saying, hey, it's Chee.
Starting point is 00:59:28 But you, since you didn't give me that back, I just didn't know where everybody ultimately stood because we're getting close to this $100,000. Like anybody ought to do anything at this point. but so yeah that part was cut out which kFC to me played as good of a game methodically like mentally as anybody like he was doing a good job massaging certain relationships like stabbing acting when he had to act um so it sucked cutting him when i had to cut him but i wanted to get fights even then but fights won immunity so you couldn't get fights like i ultimately from when i voted for fights
Starting point is 00:59:59 that first time i wanted him the rest of the game but if i was going to get back in their favor i had to vote with them a couple of times. So that way it seemed like, hey, I was just doing it because I wanted Kirk, blah, blah, blah. So that way I could get kind of back in their good graces. And then we would watch movies and get baked up every night. We like eat snacks and feed the relationship. And ultimately, you know, we had to make that move. Is there somebody that got out early that you wish was in it longer?
Starting point is 01:00:31 Rico. I wish Rico would have went like. Like to me, Rico could have played a really good game. He just didn't understand the politics of it. He sat back more, didn't like, he never got on offense. Because to me, he could have played, Rico could have played the Chicago side in Dave's group all the way up to the merger. And then when you get to the merger,
Starting point is 01:00:53 you have not like favor, but you got allies with, not necessarily like we're allies, but you got to know the people who you could kind of make an ally. Like you have enough of a relationship. with it. It's like you can at least talk to them. Yeah. Like he had he had Kirk on the other side. I'll go and throw myself into it because Kirk and I were allied up. So Kirk would be like, hey, no comp's good right now. But if you're Rico, you got the Chicago team with Big Cat, PFT, Jerry, Jay, like kind of massaging and
Starting point is 01:01:19 playing that game. And then you also could have just out of your way, went to Dave like, hey, this is what I'm thinking, blah, blah, blah, like tell secrets, play Dave, Gaz and Tommy into your favor, along with Chicago, went into whoever you had to go. with and side with to make sure you still had the numbers and work with that group until you got to the merger, you get Kirk and myself, and then you're literally controlling the board. And Rico could have done a really good job, like setting himself up that entire way, kind of similar to myself, but he had true allies he could have worked with throughout the whole game.
Starting point is 01:01:50 So I think Rico truly had the biggest miss stop of anybody, in my opinion. It would have been fun to get Hank, but you just knew Hank was going to work with, whoever he was going to work with. he over he in that second episode he was had a good narrative with kirk sabotaging the game which for a minute i was like man could he but then Hank they didn't show it he said it he showed in his pocket like just an object in his pocket like he had a fake idol and so then when he did that i the boys got all got together it's like hey if kirk actually sabotaged the game he'd feel so confident that he wouldn't have to feel like he had to play an idol so him playing an idol just shows that that's a fabricated story
Starting point is 01:02:29 Yeah. So hang got eliminated. I would have loved to see how far Gaz could I actually got if he wouldn't have fucked up the text of Jerry. I'm Jerry. I'm Jerry. What is this guy on Pluto?
Starting point is 01:02:42 But, yeah, RICO, Gaz. I thought Dave played a bad game. I thought Dave played the dumbest game of all of them. Because he had so much upper hand. He could have had so much influence, but he talked too much strategy with Jerry. Saying like, hey, we'll smoke out there, we'll do this or that, the other.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Without thinking, he's going to at least talk. He has a relationship with the Chicago guys. So that's kind of my, I guess, report card. Tommy played unbelievable. I mean, he was obviously the target, the mark from day one. And he had to find the idol, and he did. And he was like, he was like water with everybody the whole time.
Starting point is 01:03:18 He's just survived, survive, get with this crew, know how to, hey, it's not beneficial to get me out. Yeah, you can use me type thing. Like, it's beneficial to get him. I thought he was a master at that stuff. Kingslayer. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:33 Another King Slayer. Direct TV. Our overly direct take is presented by DirecTV. Direct TV is the ultimate destination for pro football. It's where fans can get their football fixed this season, whether you're watching games live on TV or a streaming app, Direct TV has you covered, and you can get DirecTV without satellite. Stop compromising.
Starting point is 01:03:54 Start watching Ball. Call 1-800 Direct TV. Overly direct take. Do you have an overly direct take? Like an out-of-pocket take? No, you go first, so I can find one. Okay, great, great, great. This is great.
Starting point is 01:04:12 Wait, y'all got one back there or what? My overly direct take is going to be Tomlin messes around and gets fired. Ooh, that is. That could be a very bad take. That's a bad take. I just feel like how the Steelers are rolling. How the famous. I like Tomlin.
Starting point is 01:04:38 I think he's a, you know, as far as culture, head coach, everything we've known on the outside, I think Tomlin's like a really good head coach. Yeah. But I feel like the way that the Steelers have trended over the years recently, you know. It can happen. I mean, look at Bill Belichick. I mean, it can happen. Bill Belichick got a step down after this year.
Starting point is 01:05:00 Yeah. Something that could happen that's more close to y'all is Arthur Smith. Would he be on? Fuck, man. After losing to the Panthers. And the bad way. Well, they're a bad team away. They're a bad way team.
Starting point is 01:05:16 So we know that. There's our two and twirl. You can lose to the Panthers, man. And I think it's like the lack of offense with the cats that you have. They got pieces. Yeah, it's definitely going to raise the question. But you know, you know where my alliance is, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:32 My head man, that was giving me your 10. Yeah, Arthur, do anything for you. I hate to see something like that. that happened to him. I think he's in a good spot contractually, like, relationships that will be good for at least another year. Yeah, I get one more yet. But he does have to put it together.
Starting point is 01:05:47 He better. He has to. Um, go ahead. You got one? A lot of offense. A lot of fun. What do you think will be the new head coach of the Chargers? I still think Bill Belichick.
Starting point is 01:06:01 I still like to buy into that rumor of, I still like to buy into the rumor of like California of retirement and in your career there, chasing the record of, Lombardi, right? Shula, chasing the record of Shula, doing it with an offense that the charges have. You already got a quarterback in Herbert that you don't have to develop like you've had been trying to do with Mac Jones. And then you've got to just build culture and defense, which that is Belichick. So I like to buy the stock into the L.A. charges for Belichick.
Starting point is 01:06:38 And I'm going to do my overly. direct take, Jim Harbaugh goes to New England. Oh, New England. I like that one. Yeah. I do think he goes to the NFL. I think he goes to the NFL. I need to get him out of the big.
Starting point is 01:06:53 I say New England. As soon as I saw that fire, I said, oh, that Jim would take that job. Yeah. He'll take that job. I can see that happening. Yeah? Yeah. I can see that happen.
Starting point is 01:07:05 Let's get Jim Harbaugh to the Patriots. I know a lot of people want him on the Bears, but the bears are trending. They're trending up right now. They're kind of going up. They kind of going up. They just got to keep adding players, add players to that team. And I feel like they're going to be successful at one point.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Crazy. I know. Hey, he caught it, though. And then kicked him to. I'm like, bro. How? Give it to me. But what about Joe Flacco though?
Starting point is 01:07:42 Sheesh. I love. I love it with Flacco, dude. Just out there trying to sling it. It just feels like the replacements with Thalco. Yeah, I know, dude. The way he looks. He's like the ultimate underthrow your receiver,
Starting point is 01:07:56 get a DPI and march to ball down the field. Hey, bro. Blacko's back. Get it done, baby. Get it done. The exact. That's what I'm thinking of when we're talking about it. Game manager.
Starting point is 01:08:09 Right. Game changer in Chicago, you think Fields would be more of in the game changer category. Yeah. Really what it kind of is Like if a guy can move he's a game change That's literally what it is Game management
Starting point is 01:08:21 Yeah that's literally what I was thinking too Like the game manager are guys Who have like those intangible things That always get talked about that you can't necessarily measure And all the tangible shit like can you move Can you run? Can you jump? Can you dive on the side? Can you basically run the wildcat? Yeah, yeah, pretty much.
Starting point is 01:08:43 I had something. You guys see that Nebraska's probably landing the number one recruit in the country, right? Dylan Raola. That's big. That's massive. Let's call that what it is. Ooh. Dylan Raola.
Starting point is 01:09:02 Oh, yeah. It's all right. At what point do we go through Nebraska schedule and you, you prediction? That'll be next year. No, that was just, we were looking at where to do our shows next year, like a live event or like a live event or like a live event or a live podcast. And since we were looking at the schedule of Nebraska, that's why I was just kind of scanning it. And I was like, six and oh. I'm telling you.
Starting point is 01:09:24 The back half looks dicey to where, boom, we feel like we're riding high. And then we just get sniped out from under us. And we just go to just a lower bowl game versus like a massive one. But we got a shot, especially we get Dylan Raola. And if he is who he's measured to be, yeah, we got, we still got, we got work to do. But if you lay in the five-star, you're laying the number one quarterback in the country, talent is going to follow him. But everyone flippers are going to want to protect for him.
Starting point is 01:09:57 Receivers are going to want to catch from him because the spotlight's going to be on him. But that's crazy. Why is he going to Nebraska then? Because he's okay. So his old man went to Nebraska. Okay. All right. Dominic Raola?
Starting point is 01:10:09 Yeah, I'm glad you asked. Spent double-digy years in league. We're talking about a pro bowl cat, Dominic Raola. Okay. His uncle also coaches the O-Line at Nebraska. Oh, okay. So there's family ties at Nebraska. The alumni, family ties.
Starting point is 01:10:23 However, he's been committed to Ohio State decommitted. He then committed when he was down to Georgia, Nebraska. He committed to Georgia. Currently, he is a Georgia bulldog. He lived there right now, right? He bought a house, yeah, and, like, lived there. Yeah, yeah. But now it looks like we're switching the 11th hour.
Starting point is 01:10:38 We might be landing him to the Big Red. I texted Rule over the weekend. And I was like, hey, let me know if I can get on a FaceTime with this kid and I'll seal this deal. right here right now. He didn't let me. You think he stays the whole time since this portal? If y'all get him.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Yes. Here's why. I'll give you a couple examples. Luke Skywalker. I am your father. Yeah, you look at the rise of the Jedi. And then the fall of them, when Anakin was ultimately supposed to be the chosen one,
Starting point is 01:11:14 and then he goes to the dark side and they crumble. Jedi have to go back into hiding until years later, Again, decade later of success in Nebraska. We've had a drought. We've been at our lowest of lows. You come back years later, Luke Skywalker brings balance back to the force and essentially saves the galaxy.
Starting point is 01:11:31 Example number two, the Lion King, Simba. You got a prosperous pride rock while Mufasa's at the helm. Scar or Sean Eikers and Harvey Perlman come in and eliminate what was being built. Mufasa, Tom Osborne, B'olini.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Willie C, Rex, Burkett, Levanti, David, the names go on and on. Now it gets taken over. Mike Riley comes in. Ikers comes in. Mike Riley. Scott Frost, we thought he was going to be the chosen one. Turned out, Scott Frost was Anakin Skywalker in that example. Didn't have the higher ground.
Starting point is 01:12:05 Didn't have the higher ground. So Simba, as a young cat, has to fall back until Dylan Rayola, Simba understands people talking to him. Hey, yes, you're having a great time over here. Acuna Matata, you'll have the Akuna Matata. in Georgia. But you'll still be just another guy. Come back to Pride Rock and bring it back to life. Now here's my final pitch would have been. My final landing spot would have been this. Dylan, I've been in an alumni long enough now. You're going to be an alumni way longer than you are a player. If you are who you think you are, who we all think you are, recruiting bases,
Starting point is 01:12:38 everything else, you're going to have a lot of success and make a shitload of money no matter where you go. But knowing that you are an alumni longer than you are a player, imagine the legacy you will have at a place at Nebraska when you bring that balance back to college football. You're going to be a legend. There's going to be a statue at some point. And that is all I would have wanted to say. And say, hey, you know, you make your decision,
Starting point is 01:13:05 but I'm just letting you know being on the other side of it, you have a chance to do something that would go down and be cemented in stone. We'll make sure he gets this clip. Yes. The 100K will be going towards that statue. Yeah, I was going to say how much if they pay him? Because, God, damn, he didn't flip twice.
Starting point is 01:13:27 You know what I'm saying. You know Coach Rules got some game. I mean, I'm about to get the Ohio State Cats. Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm sure his dad has something to do with it, too. I heard we don't want McCord. McCord was a five-star. He was the Ohio State Cat that just won, what, 12 games?
Starting point is 01:13:45 Did Dylan Roller's uncle is the O-Line coach? Yeah. I didn't know that. I might have missed you just said that too. So there's some story out there that this past week, like when they made their last pitch to Dylan, and it looks like he's thinking about flipping to Nebraska, that Donovan Raola, his uncle,
Starting point is 01:14:08 not only did they visit him out there, but Donovan stayed at his house the entire week so other coaches couldn't come in. It's what I was reading. That was me reading something on Twitter. from like a coach or anything else. But it was just a verbal, right? He's verbal to Georgia.

I say, hey, Don, you know, I don't know what your son's doing. We would love for him to come on bustle with the boys. I won't, all I wanted to do is make that pitch I just made. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:59 I just wanted to make the pitch I just made. Maybe asking about a couple recruiting things, but you only got to commit on the bus, even though we would have you. You were asking for sure. He didn't respond, but just know that I'm trying to do my work on the back end. Yeah, we'll see come Wednesday. We'll see. I thought about taking some of my surviving.
Starting point is 01:15:17 barstool money and putting it toward the NIL. But, I mean, come on. Yeah, yeah, but you know, $100,000. Twisted question. Let's get into the twisted question. Let's change it up a little bit. Twisted question brought to you by Twisted Tea, the smoothest hard iced tea out there.
Starting point is 01:15:33 It's holiday season, football games, game days, all of them in between. Keep it twisted with twisted tea. Grab a refreshing twisted tea today anywhere. Gas stations. All of the places that have refrigerators. Yeah, yeah. All the bikes have refrigerators. You should be filled up to the brim with twisted tea. Mitch, what do you got for us? The confidence is at an all-time low with these questions. So with- Under Promise over-deliver. Here you go.
Starting point is 01:16:02 Yep. This is a good question given that you just want surviving Barstool. Would you rather give up all of this year's money or all of the memories that you made this year? I'd rather give up all this year's money All this year's money for myself Are we talking about the The business of Bustin with the boys? What do you have? I guess I need some specific Yeah, like all of the money that you have made
Starting point is 01:16:29 That has been that into your bank account Just you made in your bank account All of that This year Would you rather give up all of that Or all of the memories That we've made, all the trips that we've gone on All the stuff your Italy trip with Rue
Starting point is 01:16:43 and your family Oh shit. So just all my personal stuff, too. All the memories. I'll give up money. Right? Just a one, this is just a year. Yeah, just a year.
Starting point is 01:16:52 I'll give up the money. I don't know. The memories. Fuck that. I mean, I get that. You give up the memories? I get them back next year. That's how I feel about the money part.
Starting point is 01:17:04 Well, yeah. I mean, it depends in the line of work, you know, what you're doing. Then you're going to always get the money. If you're, like, on the last year of your football deal or something, and you're getting, like, you know, a lot of the money. And you kind of, you kind of, you kind of, you're, future's up in the air. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:18 The kid element is tough. Yeah, yeah, I'd give up the money. I give up the money. What are some of your favorite memories from this year? Well, you just said, one, Italy is massive. But all the shit that we've gotten to do, like, bus and wise, so on the personal side, everything involving the family, like Roos' first birthday, Italy, taking them home to 4th of July, shut up onto Missouri.
Starting point is 01:17:43 All of those things, obviously, are in value. but all this shit that we've gotten to do as a squad from, I mean, the Super Bowl was part of this year. The run we've been on since the Super Bowl, like, it's, we've gotten to do so much shit. All the live events we've got to do in the springtime, like travel in the different cities, kind of doing our first, our first actual, like, live pod tour and kind of figuring out if it's something we want to do, kind of learning on the go with that. I thought that was a lot of fun. We've gotten to go to Vegas, like that relationship with Dana and like getting to go to the We got to go to International Fight Week.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Yeah. Which was, and we sat in the second row. I'm sure. I mean, being at a pay-per-view UFC fight was always on, like, on my bucket list. Like, Connor McGregor at UFC, like, have a good seat, but not thinking it was ever going to be through a plug. Yeah. But getting to sit in the second row at International Fight Week and seeing all the faces that we got to see, like Johnny Knoxville, Trump, Mark Wahlberg, like all these people around David Spade. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:45 Mel Gibson has a little. Joe Dirt. Mel Gibson. Like, that was just nuts. And then the football season, we did a couple training. Yeah, Guggins. I mean, we got to see Gagins, bro. See Shane perform before his special came out in Vegas
Starting point is 01:19:00 and build on those friendships that we made, like with Caleb. He talked about the late French, like going to Notre Dame, going to all the places we got to go through on the fall tour. Like, we got to be on the stage with Shaq. Did he hump one of you? He grabbed Taylor and just let him know he can take him behind. But we got to do so much cool shit, man. Yeah, it would be hard to delete those memories.
Starting point is 01:19:27 Like, yeah, I think we'll continue to make, I feel like every year, Bustin-Wise, personal, all of it feels like, hey, this is our year. It's going to be a better year this year. And it does, like, it does become, like, a better year. We get to have, like, a lot of cool moments with each other. It's going to be tough to top, though. But it's not like the year before was going to be tough to top.
Starting point is 01:19:45 And ultimately, I think, too, like, for me, it's more of, it's not like we have the expectation of it being, like, insanely outlandish or all these opportunities are going to come our way. They kind of just happen. And it's more fun, I feel like that way. I feel like it'll even grow from here. Yeah. It's just nowhere but up, you know what I mean? To be honest with you. So, yeah, it's, yeah, giving up the money for sure.
Starting point is 01:20:10 Now that's even more talking that through, I feel like it's even more definitive. because the stuff that we're doing, like, that stuff will continue to happen. What's your choice, Mitch? I would probably give up the money. There's some memories this year that I would like to forget. But I think those, like, I mean, being as young as we are, like, those make you who you are. So, like, yeah, you take the good with the bad. But, I mean, being able to, like you said, all the trips and stuff that we've been on, like, spring tour.
Starting point is 01:20:46 going to Vegas, going to Arizona for the Super Bowl. I mean, we spent a day with Jeffrey Starr. It's wild. And just all the people we've gotten to meet. I would, yeah, that was a, I'd give up the money. No, we get that. They give it all the money. We get that one.
Starting point is 01:21:04 Mitch, man, like, you've had a hell of a year. I know that there's stuff that you'd like to delete. But, bro, that's like, that's fucking. I'm giving up the money. Okay, yeah. But I'm just even add on to it. Like, that's part of the game. He said that.
Starting point is 01:21:17 You learn about yourself in your lowest times. I know your times have been low. But you've had a fucking hell of a year. And you're going to look back at this year one day and be able to pull from it when somebody else is down and out. Because you're still fucking standing. You're not only standing, but you're thriving and you're prospering, bro.
Starting point is 01:21:34 Yeah, you eat, man. ASAP, bro, always striving prospering. Come on. I'm like, yeah, I'm getting hungry. Dude, enjoy. Have to order some food, man. It definitely. So for context, I decided to do this 72-hour water fast.
Starting point is 01:21:50 Fucking idiot. But this past weekend, I was caroling up in Jersey. Just got super banged up and was hung over all day yesterday. It was being Sunday. Flew home. And I was like, yeah, like, I'll just have my last meal like this half of a cold pub sub. I ate it. And I was like, yeah, this is all right.
Starting point is 01:22:09 And then I woke up. Yeah. So. And so. I woke up this morning hungry and I'm like, I said I was going to do this, do like this water fast, but I'm like, I might be like way too malnourished right now to go through for three days. So it might get pushed off. Three days of only drinking water? I can do it.
Starting point is 01:22:37 What are you guys doing, man? I can do it. I want to. I'll pass out. I just don't know right now. Yeah. Yeah. Jake, how about you?
Starting point is 01:22:48 Oh, man. Tough. Because I love that paper, dog. You know? Oh, shit. Hey, how much did you make in Vegas? So that's the thing. If you'd ask me before this weekend, I'm taking the memories.
Starting point is 01:22:58 But I did very, very well in Vegas. How'd you do? I went up 23K. Oh, my God. You ain't giving that back, how are you? So, yeah, like Delaney said, man, like, I can make more memories. Oh, he did. But I do feel like this year has been a Hall of Fame year for us,
Starting point is 01:23:17 and hopefully we only go up. So it's tough to delete. does memories. I think I will keep the memories, though. We'll make more money, but it would be very tough to give up what we just won. But we've had some fun times this year. You know, Jack, now is in a spot where he's like, I'll make that back. Even though I'm going to give up the money because I figured out the game.
Starting point is 01:23:37 We'll see. But yeah, yeah, yeah. What they're good at. I don't want to forget. About you, J.P. Give up the money all day. No question for me. Talk about a talk proposal.
Starting point is 01:23:49 Oh, yeah, he just got proposed. Yeah, that man just got engaged. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Regardless, I have memories over money all day, every day. You can't get memories without money, though, man. He wouldn't have never got his hot wife if he wasn't in NFL. You would have never got your hot wife if you didn't play, wasn't on busing with the boys.
Starting point is 01:24:08 He wouldn't have never had a hot chick if he wasn't like this money, yo. It's like me. I know I'm not the best look, but I got money. So that helps. It helps. Hey, you're not lying, but you're still going to have all these things, like, with the, with the memory part that made you who you are, like, the touchdowns are still there. They will, I will lose them, though, one day.
Starting point is 01:24:29 When we get to 65, 7, everything, the memories you won't have them anymore. They will disappear. I love Delaney, man. That's what you need. Yeah, fuck it. I'll make more memories. I'll be going to keep this bankroll. I'll lose them all the time, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:24:42 Somebody's like, you marry me? Ah, man, I don't remember you. We went to. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. No, I don't remember. But, you know, I'm going to get you. you the whoop-y-wop.
Starting point is 01:24:50 But long as the, long as the pocket's back, I don't know I'll come across you again, buddy. All right, so I'll let's twist the question. What else we got on the docket? Good job, Mitch. What was he getting to switch to question?
Starting point is 01:25:04 I think I was saving that. I've been saving that one for a minute just because it was the time where, like, it's our last podcast of talking because next week's going to be the best of. So it's kind of like we can just remember everything that's here. Yeah, and good point, too, good reminder. That was a good one.
Starting point is 01:25:19 Next week is a best of, so all the best moments from the year. The boys will obviously be off spending Christmas with the fam, friends, whatever everybody wants to do. So, yeah, this will be our kind of our, yeah, last episode of the year. Big 24 coming. Yeah, like, I know he wanted to be. I can't wait for tomorrow. We got our gift exchange, our white elephant. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:41 Yeah, get on that now. 23K, we might have to lift that, lift your price. There's $1,000. Yeah, yeah. So tune into that next week, but also shout out there about who's been listening all year long. It's been a hell of a year, boy, it's been a record year. Big ones coming next year. I know we're working on a lot of different stuff.
Starting point is 01:25:59 We did, this past year, you kind of like look back on it all the shit that we did, like with the tour. We did like two episodes a week, like in the spring for a little bit of time. You look at slips and picks, the gambling show that Delaney's co-hosted on, our NFL gambling show, or college gambling show, bet the bus with the boys in the year, booking guests, trying to lean into kind of like the NFL nature of busing with Taylor myself versus doing all the lifestyle interviews and podcasts, which we will get back to doing in the off season. But we've been playing with a lot of difference up because obviously it's been Taylor and I's first year kind of out of it together out of the NFL.
Starting point is 01:26:33 So we've been trying to pour in and feel like, you know, figure out where our lanes are, like doing the pro football football show with Big Cat, being on the yak each week, like doing surviving. Like we've been trying to do a lot of different stuff to kind of figure out our footing next year. like bus our bus scenes is kind of going through some transition right now. So people who follow our vlogs, like on our YouTube channel, we have Under the Hood, which is like our behind the scenes of everywhere we kind of travel, the fun stuff we get to do.
Starting point is 01:26:59 And then we have bus scenes, which is kind of the elements around the office. JP's kind of taken that and ran with it and threw in some new wrinkles. When does the next bus scenes come out? Yeah, end of the month. So we're definitely workshopping. And we've been workshopping doing a lot of different things this year, but we are going to kind of dial in. the quality of everything we want to do going into the next year
Starting point is 01:27:19 because trust me, we know we've been in front of everybody's fucking faces 24-7 with a lot of different things, but it's been kind of like an organized chaos, I guess you could say. But shout out to everybody that's been listening all year. It definitely means the world. I guess we can go in to start talking about our Christmas stuff, yeah? Yeah? Get into the season?
Starting point is 01:27:41 What did you do, shittiest moment already? Well, shittiest moment, I think we should kick off. Oh, yeah, yes, okay. Yeah, dude wipes. Here we go. Dude wipes. Still using toilet paper? Stop being an idiot.
Starting point is 01:27:51 Boys, drop the TP and pick up the dude wipes. The wet extra large flushable wipes that clears instead of smears. Wiping wet just cleans better than wiping dry. Get confidently clean with dude wipes that gets all the crap toilet paper leaves behind. You can pick up dude wipes on Amazon or Walmart in Target nationwide. Shittiest moment. Let's go shittiest Christmas. shittiest Christmas.
Starting point is 01:28:18 Do you have a shittiest Christmas story? If you guys don't have one yet, I can kick one off. Go ahead. I guess technically I have two, but one, maybe I've even told it before on here. But when I was probably like, maybe like nine years old, eight or nine, so like peak Christmas,

And our uncle, shout out Uncle Bob, he would always give us like a video game or like he would always give us the cool gift that we would all open. And my brothers, my grandma lived with us at the time and she was like 85, very religious woman. And my brothers are like, Jay, you have to open Mimi's present.

And they're like, hey, you can open another one. It's okay. But I just remember being so sad, like holding this tiny baby Jesus figurine, like, I would have been like, yeah.

Starting point is 01:30:09 Basically like on the 23rd That night Was sitting in the tank, like sitting in a jail cell in Christmas Eve morning and had to call somebody like a buddy of mine to get out and come pick me out because I didn't want to call my parents. And, you know, slept at my buddy's house that night and he's like, hey, like, I'm taking you, I got to take you back home. Like, you got to tell your parents.
Starting point is 01:30:29 Like, I can't keep this from your parents. I have to tell them. So either you can do it or I'll do it. Like, I picked you up. I got you in my house. You can sleep here. That's fine. But now you need to go, you know, face the music.
Starting point is 01:30:40 Yeah. I walked in, told my parents, walked in. I was like, you have a fun night? I was like, you could say that. She was like, would you get arrested or something? And I said, well, funny enough, I did. And she kind of stopped doing the dish and turned around. She's like, are you being serious?
Starting point is 01:30:56 I was like, yeah. I just, I got an MIP. And she, like, kind of put the stuff down. And she's like, you go tell your dad. Like, there's no saving you now. Yeah. And I was like, can you come with me? I'm 18, 17, 18 years old.
Starting point is 01:31:11 Can you come with me? You're like, no, there's no, no, you got to go tell your dad. So I went in and told my dad, I start crying like a bitch. Tell my dad, because I ain't want to have to, you know, have to face a shot at the title. Like, he's pissed because I have offers from colleges. Like, he's like, you're about to throw all this away because of an MIP, doing this, hanging around the wrong fucking people, like giving me a stern talking to. And so we're a family, like growing up Catholic.
Starting point is 01:31:40 You go to Midnight Mass every year. So we're in Midnight Mass, and it is the most awkward Christmas of my life. Because I had been in a jail cell the night before. And everyone was the shittiest. Yeah, yeah, everybody was talking. Logan and I, Logan, I saw them that night, like, in Midnight Mass. And unfortunately, called a case of the giggles thinking of, like, they're seeing me, like, you know, I'm standing there with the parents and everything else.
Starting point is 01:32:02 And you're kind of laughing about the night before type of thing. Like, why didn't you run with us yada yada? I'm thinking, like, I stayed back hoping that that would be like the honorable thing to do and they let us go. And, but so I'm catching the giggles in the pew at midnight mass. And fortunately, I was able to kind of hide it. But my old man, like, he looked over at me. And I was like, oh, my God. But you know, when you got the, you got the giggles that you can't.
Starting point is 01:32:24 You can't stop. You can do. Oh, shit. But that was the shittiest Christmas. But to J.P's point, like, there's, like, that realization of knowing that you can't keep up with all your friends. You make all your Christmas list that you want to give to your parents. Like, I want this from, you know, from all the close spots.
Starting point is 01:32:41 Hollister back then, right? Hollister, some Abercrombie. And you're like, you're wanting all the best shit to wear, you know, to impress the women. Mm-hmm. And when you get, like, Aeropostal and just the bullshit, J.C. pennies. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:39:07 Tier Talk. Do we have an ad for Tier Talk? Jack? We do not. All right, Tier Talk. Let's do, let's Tier Talk Christmas movies. We'll go Christmas movies.
Starting point is 01:39:23 We might have Max and CMC zooming in. I was going to say no, but it also could be fun with the Pro Bowl game. Oh, see, they... You need a black guy to zoom in, though. Just to show some parody. Delaney zooms in. Hey, I'm here.
Starting point is 01:39:40 I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. All right, let's take a few minutes. Tier talk. All right, tear talk. Christmas movies.
Starting point is 01:39:52 I'll start it off. Yeah, go ahead. My, man, I just thought of another one. Honorable mention. I got to give a shout out. Honorable mention to Christmas story. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:08 Something that runs every year on Christmas all day long, 24-7, that you got to give. You got to pay homage to the Christmas story because that was the one I grew up on. That was the one you watched. That's the one I have his background noise no matter what, every year on Christmas. My tier three is going to be the holiday. A little love story, a little love movie. Gets me in a good vibe.
Starting point is 01:40:33 It's a great movie. The wife and I watch every year. and I enjoy it. I enjoy the holiday. My tier two. Four Christmases. I, you know, there's an element of do you want to, you know, there's so many good Christmas movies and it's hard to,
Starting point is 01:40:52 you know, you got elf in there, Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, more, yeah, all of the other ones out there. But four Christmases to me is something I will always watch when it's on TV. Love Vince Vaughn. Love the whole dynamic with the, them being named after the cities they were conceived in. I think, who is it, John Favreau?
Starting point is 01:41:13 John Favreau being in it, like, four Christmases is all time to me. My favorite Christmas movement, tier one, has to be, what? He did honorable mention. Honorable mention. Christmas story, Tier three is holiday, Tier two is four Christmases. My tier one, my number one is Jim Carries the Grinch.
Starting point is 01:41:37 That to me is truly all-time. It's one you have to watch every year. That is an all-time performance. I mean, that's up there with, like, the Dark Night. That's up there with Heath Ledger as Joker. Yeah. Jim Carrey as the Grinch is maybe one of the greatest acting performances of all time. He coming back as the Grinch.
Starting point is 01:41:53 What? Yeah, they came out, Jim, uh, Jim Carrey going to do another Grinch. Yeah. That's amazing. Yeah, I'm excited. He crushes it, man. Like, that is my tier one. That's the best.
Starting point is 01:42:06 He is the Grinch. Yes, he crushes it, man. You're an idiot. Yeah. My honorable. Yeah, one word. You got to give one word for that for my tear talk. Oh.
Starting point is 01:42:18 That judges it. Festival. Yeah. You got G. Jolly. Christmas. Jesus fucking Christ. Beautiful.
Starting point is 01:42:45 Mary. Merry. I'm glad we did that one. Delaney, what's your two talk? Well, my honorable mention is Charlie Brown Christmas story. That's just like the Christmas story. It goes down in history, but that's the cartoon version. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:43:04 And then my tier three is going to be Gremlins. Pulled that one out. Grimlins grew up with that one of the best, one of the best, horror Christmas movies to start off with especially because it was 1986. I want to say that came out or 1984. Which are we here, but
Starting point is 01:43:25 one of the top. My tier two is going to be bad Santa. Oh, damn, that's a good one. Love that movie. I just, everything about that movie just tells me I fucking loves Christmas, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:43:41 It's just like he's a shitty Santa drunk. Billy Bob Gordon. Yeah, got a little, little person in there stealing. That tells Delaney, this is... That's Christmas. It's the season. That's Christmas.
Starting point is 01:43:55 We literally stealing from people on Christmas. We go out, we rank prices up. We buy all these gifts and then right after the gifts get brought, the prices go down. Well, I think it's the other way. Prices go down, right? They do it the way I'm talking about. Then after Christmas, all the prices go down. You're like, damn.
Starting point is 01:44:13 Well, I just didn't wait until after Christmas. All right. But enough with that. No, no. Yeah. It's my tier one. Tier one. There we get, man.
Starting point is 01:44:24 Friday after next. Die heart, baby. Die hard. Die hard. What? Die hard? Yeah, I think die hard's always in there. I got a bad admission here.
Starting point is 01:44:36 I've never seen die hard. What? Yeah. Disqualification. Oh, my God. You'd be a John McLean super fan. Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 01:44:46 That's all me. I got to watch that. I got to watch it. You got to watch. I hate to admit that. You need to watch that like tonight. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:54 You'll love it. I promise you. Piquet, motherfucker. Yeah. That's when Bruce Willis was the man. Like, unstoppable. Yeah, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:45:06 He had all the bad wives. He was sleeping with every actress out there. He was on top. He was on top. He was definitely on top. Because he was with Demi more, right? Demi. My word is interesting.
Starting point is 01:45:22 Okay. Take that. Different. Yippie Kaye. Maka fucka. All hyphenated. Movie night. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:45:35 Dark. Yeah. I like scary Christmases. Yeah. You love Spooktober. I love all the gory shit. Yeah. I love all the gory shit.
Starting point is 01:45:44 Like I even watch scary movies, Christmas scary movies. Like, plain and simple. Should my girl be like, why? I'm like, it's, Christmas movie. They're just killing people. Christmas, bloody Christmas? Yeah, bloody Christmas. Yeah. So I had all the scary horror, but I'm like, I don't think they've seen a few of these movies. So let me go with a few that people may have seen.
Starting point is 01:46:07 Violent Night. Yeah, Violent Night. Yeah, Phile Night. I do want to check that out. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you know what you need to do, Delaney. You need to lead to charge for, like, the scary movies during the month of December. Like, like, screwed over, like carried into... Well, no, because y'all like to go real jolly because Taylor is like Christmas, like, you know what I mean? You can be the other way. You can be the opposite. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:46:31 You know, be a mouthpiece for the fan base who loves the scary shit. It's almost like the movie, the boy named Christmas or what Chris, the boy named Chris or something like that, Christopher. It's a movie called the boy named Christopher or Christmas. You know what I'm talking about? The boy called Christmas. The boy called Christmas. So, like, I guess he, Christmas, and then the brother is, like, the other person, like, the evil Christmas.
Starting point is 01:46:59 Yeah, I can do the evil one. What, uh, what's your guys is? Top movies. I'll throw them out there. Rattle them all. I'll hit one. I'm glad you did four Christmases because it makes my list easy, so I'm going to leave it off. But I just want to acknowledge that that's an incredible Christmas movie.
Starting point is 01:47:15 But my official honorable mention is jingle all the way, which is a banger. Yeah. key shout out to Simbad. He's an awesome character in that. My number three is going to be Elf. I feel like you can't leave off Elf and no one's said it yet. I know it's like almost too obvious to what you want to use something else. But yeah, Elf is phenomenal. That's really peak Christmas to me. Number two, Tim Allen's the Santa Claus. I love that. Great series. That was a great one. Anything Tim Allen did fucking kills it. Yeah. That to me. That to me,
Starting point is 01:47:52 me, like my family, we always watch that on Christmas Eve. So when that's on, it's like, I feel like in the most holiday spirit. And the number one, another Tim Allen banger, Christmas with the cranks. Ooh. One really is just fun. You got the whole dynamic of, like, abandoning Christmas, and then you just fully embrace it at the end. And my favorite Christmas song ever is in that movie.
Starting point is 01:48:14 So, yeah, that's me. Solid. That was solid. I like to see it. Yeah, I like that. the Santa Claus one so much. Santa Claus is just, Tim Allen to me is so awesome. I just love
Starting point is 01:48:28 Tim Allen, so. When you're young, you kind of think like, I wonder if that's a... That real? Yeah, is that a real thing? Calvin SC, there's always like... When movies are kind of real in your eyes, like, yeah, I wonder, you know. Yeah. And then you got Neil the fucking his, like, wife's, like, new dude who's just peeks me out with
Starting point is 01:48:44 the sweaters and shit. What was the movie last year that came out on Netflix with Will Farrell? Yeah. Bearded. That's actually a solid flick. I haven't seen that yet. I think so, yeah. Anything.
Starting point is 01:48:56 It's a solid, like, Christmas movie for, you know, how they kind of car wash some of these Netflix movies. Well, Will Ferrell, though, was just fucking hilarious. Yeah. Damn. Yeah. He's so funny, man. What do you got, G? One word?
Starting point is 01:49:09 Yeah. Tim. Santa. Wholesome. Mm. Mm. Who's going next? Tear talk.
Starting point is 01:49:21 Christmas movies. I can go. My, I'd like to give an honorable mention to Just Friends with Ryan Reynolds. Ryan Reynolds. One of my favorite little rom-coms. It is a good one. Very quotable movie. Tier three, I'm going to go Polar Express.
Starting point is 01:49:39 Whoa, I saw that one too. I was looking at it down like that. Polar Express. Tier two, Jim Carries Grinch. Yes. In Tier one, I tweeted about it this weekend, but the OG Rudolph when it's like the The racist version. Yeah, the racist version.
Starting point is 01:49:54 Yukon Cornelius. What do you say? I said the racist version. I just said they treat Rudolph so wrong in that version. That's what I say. It's the racist version. Yeah. Hey, that shit is so funny.
Starting point is 01:50:09 Dude, but yeah, Yukon Cornelius, one of my favorite characters. Yeah. Great name. Wait, that's the snowman, right? Not. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah Oh on Polar Express
Starting point is 01:50:25 You're talking about No Rudolph Oh Rudolph Yeah Um Is that OG Rudolph One's like It's like the first movie
Starting point is 01:50:34 You probably watch If it's not a Christmas story It's Rudolph God damn it Mitch I have Cheerful Yeah Classics
Starting point is 01:50:44 Yeah OGs Legend Legend I'm fighting a war All right. I'm fighting a war on Twitter right now. Oh, God. I can go next.
Starting point is 01:50:59 My honorable mention is going to go to Fred Clause. I was on this weekend, and I've watched it, and it's just such a funny one. Like, the cast is really good. Ludacious, being in there as the DJ. Yeah, one that I kind of forgot about. So I'm going to throw it in there for the honorable mention. Tier 3, 4 Christmases, another Vince Vaughn movie.
Starting point is 01:51:19 Classic. You can watch that one any time of the year. Yeah, he funny. Tier 2, office Christmas party. Oh. Oh. Yeah. It's just so funny.
Starting point is 01:51:31 And then tier one has got to be OG Jim Carrey Grinch. Yeah. Like I, that movie, like you said, well, the performance is just like unbelievable. And all the one-liners, like, it is, it's a perfect performance. So it really is. And now that we get older and watch it back here, you're thinking like, yo, this motherfucker nailed it. It's still watchable. You, it still looked like it was made today.
Starting point is 01:51:55 If you was to watch it right now. It's so good. But yeah. Good, very good, very good. Epic. Vince. Does that play? Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 01:52:10 Whoville. And that's all, folks. Do you hear what I gave you? Whoville. Whoville. Did you go, Mitch? No. All right.
Starting point is 01:52:21 I guess I won't go. No, I'm just kidding. I'll tease, I'll tease me, I'll tease me. All right. My, uh, he, he's sparked one for me. So my honorable mention was go to office Christmas party. My tier three will go to the night before with Seth Rogen, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Anthony Mackey.
Starting point is 01:52:38 I think, I think that's a good one. And then my tier two is the elf. And my tier one is the Polar Express. And my favorite scene is that, in that movie is the caribou. The caribou. They're just pulling on his, on his beard. I think that is. What was your tier three?
Starting point is 01:52:53 The night before. Right. Gotcha. That is my idea. I'm surprised no one did Tim Burton that night before Christmas. Or what was the cartoon? You know one that did not get mentioned
Starting point is 01:53:09 that truly is God tier. I don't know if you can say that. I don't know if you guys have watched it. A wonderful life. Yeah, God, yeah. That's God. I feel like if that wasn't mentioned, there's always some stands.
Starting point is 01:53:21 They're like, that's ridiculous. You guys didn't put it in Wonderful Life. I love that. But I'm more of like, I like the like, I like funny. Yeah. Like yeah, just funny Christmas movies. Like selfish fun Christmas, but but a wonderful life is an incredible movie. The fact that you can still watch it now and it's black and white like yeah. I mean, them are the stables. Them are stable movies. Probably some color version. Did you have a Christmas story on it on yours, honorable mention? Yeah. Yeah, Christmas story honorable mention. But yeah, what the fact that Wonderful Life didn't get any
Starting point is 01:53:53 kind of love. That is true. That's a really good Christmas movie. Very. But they don't even have that in the top 20 though. If you look at top 20 Christmas movies right now, that's probably run by somebody who might not just have it in there. I mean, they had a lot of black and white movies in there. They just didn't have that one. That one, I think that one's so phenomenal. Anybody got big Christmas plans? Whoa. You're hosting this year, G? Let's go. Yeah, I'm hosting at my house. I don't know how I got roped into that. Nice.
Starting point is 01:54:33 So, yeah, all my siblings, their kids, it's going to be a full house. Which sucks, too, because you don't get to, like, slip away, you know, you don't get to dip out. Yeah. The walk is just the back porch, but. Yeah. It'll be fun. But I am kind of like, holy shit, what have I done? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:57:07 I'm Akela Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 is about both of the, those things. As I was watching these statues come down, I was thinking about what it meant that I grew up in a majority black city in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people.
