Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, we're back circling back podcast. Washed Media Headquarters, Austin, Texas. My name's Will DeFries. In the studio with me today, Mr. David Ruff. Man, I feel like I might be on my brattiest today. I feel like I might be on my biggest brat boy behavior. It's kind of like a bratty Dave Summer. Are you feeling that too, Or is it just me?
Starting point is 00:00:45 I've been pulling some total brat moves lately. You know, I was looking at your vacation pics and it looked a little bratty. Are you in on Charlie XCX? I don't know anything about it. I just know. Dave, okay. Can I take this opportunity to convince you to get in on Charlie XCX? It's not going to take much.
Starting point is 00:01:03 I didn't really partake in listening to her much. And then Sally was like, man, her new album, Brad, kind of goes. So I tossed it on in the car one day. And it's it's honestly been most of what I've been listening to lately. Let's let's give her Instagram a real quick perusing the CFO. We'll check it out.
Starting point is 00:01:26 All right. I mean, the song 360 straight up bop, Von Dutch just makes you feel like you're at a 90s rave taking designer drugs, just absolutely going off. She has a song called Von Dutch. Yup. Yup. Okay. Dude, there's something about her music.
Starting point is 00:01:42 And I don't know if other people feel this way, but this is how I feel. There's something about her music, and I don't know if other people feel this way, but this is how I feel. There's something about her music that makes me feel like it is the mid 90s, and I'm watching rave footage on MTV News. Like, it takes me back to this weird nostalgic time of being a little kid and being like, damn, these parties look crazy. Okay. Yeah, I'll check it out. She, she's been all over my TL. Yeah, she's quite popular. I'm getting a lot of buzz. I think she's the biggest,
Starting point is 00:02:13 probably op, I guess, of white boy summer. Really? I would say, cause Brad summer kind of goes directly against it. Those two things can't coexist. I think they can coexist really. It just depends if the invested parties would like to because I do think that anyone celebrating brat summer could end up going home with somebody celebrating
Starting point is 00:02:32 white boy summer. You know white boy summer just got too intense and Chet had to calm everybody down and tell people to tone down the rhetoric. Chet had to go on and like say hey guys let's just be clear here what we're doing and what we're not doing. Well, what do you do when the masses commandeer your message? That's tough. That's again, like when when we thought we were cool with dad bod and then two years later, dad bod became like way bigger. We're like, well, no, that was us. Just like that.
Starting point is 00:03:02 No, only was white boy summer. You just don't want it to be commandeered by like, you know, nationalists and stuff. That's true. Cuz he's just trying to shut out the Jack Harlow types. Yeah, which is confusing to me. Why? I just don't. So, white rappers is his is what he's saying. That's who. Yeah, I think. Really embodies the spirit. He was mainly just trying to celebrate celebrate white rappers during that time period. I think Much like himself. Can I call something out in the studio?
Starting point is 00:03:35 Please I've been gone. Yeah The AC unit went down While I was gone. Were you guys I did no one take over icing down the servers while I was gone? Nope. Sorry, I'll delegate that better next time. It was producer week. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:52 I don't know what got fixed with the AC, but it's comfortable in here today. But for some reason, the in-studio AC vent is the loudest thing on earth. So I didn't want to say anything. I thought since I'm sitting over here, I almost was like, is this how it is on this side? Cause I never hear it over there, but this is noticeably loud.
Starting point is 00:04:07 No, it's jarring. The fact that all three, that you two and Brett also mentioned it, like it is loud, but it's because the guy turned up to high instead of low. He went up to 11. Yeah. Did they send that same dog from last time?
Starting point is 00:04:20 Oh yeah. Yeah, they did. So he was just back there working on it during the live stream. He was great. Yeah. I did. So he was just back there working on it during the live stream. He was great. Yeah, I hate missing a live stream mainly because they're just fun. But when Dylan sent the text that just said, it actually doesn't feel that bad in here. I was like, yeah, maybe this is one that I could skip. I don't think anybody really wanted to respond to that. But like, I don't know if I was in here with Randy or Brett, but we were Brett we looked at each other like it's pretty hot did you guys consider
Starting point is 00:04:48 going tarp off I think we would have Parks was here yeah I guess Parks was here it's kind of weird to like hang out weird yeah I don't think it was as bad on Thursday at Wednesday it was bad I wanted to pop top during voicemails but Dave wouldn't let me I would have been fine you know wanted to pop top during voicemails, but Dave wouldn't let me. I would have been fine. You're not a boy pop top. You're behind camera talent. I have my own camera. His camera is actually pretty high quality. You do have a good camera. I've been rewatching some old segments.
Starting point is 00:05:16 And by old segments, I mean, recently done segments and Randy's quite high quality coming through now. Yeah, I think the studio got very, very warm. OK, OK, but it was fine. We did. We powered through it, man. We didn't. We never even mentioned it. We hardly ever complained about it at all. People respect us for that. I was kind of I was kind of glad to be out when I heard AC was out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Yeah, AC and then God, what else did you miss as far as like weather? And well, I mean, I missed a couple of things, but I'm going to get to some of those in a little bit. Yeah, I've got I've got some things I'd like to bring up from some podcasts that have gone by. Hey, this Charlie XCX. Yes. Believe she's a girl. She's British. She's very cute. I think she's British, at least. Very cool. How are you being a brat this
Starting point is 00:06:07 summer? You know, man, you just can't. I'm just kind of marching to the beat of my own drum. Yeah, I'm uh in the plane lands. Maybe I'm standing up. Maybe I'm uh if the flight attendant says, hey, seatbelt's on, you can't go to the bathroom. I
Starting point is 00:06:22 might just stand up and pull it out and just drain right there in the middle of the plane. It's like Brad behavior. Typical Brad. Pretty bratty. It's pretty bratty. Yeah. Like remember you guys saw the video of the girl hitting her elf bar on the plane, right? No. And then they yell at her and then she does it again and they're like, alright, well, you're kicked off the plane. Like you can't vape in here. She doubled down
Starting point is 00:06:38 on the vape. Yeah. She was in goblin mode. Admittedly, she was just balled up on the thing but like who thinks that you can get it? Like you've already been called out for vaping on the plane once. You've tossed one single cloud on the plane. How do you go back and think that you can do it again? So when you get called,
Starting point is 00:06:55 when she got called out the first time, had she just not doubled down when she'd been okay? It would have been just like a- I think they would have walked away. Oh man. Yeah. Also, why don't you just go in the bathroom to do that? People do that, right? What?
Starting point is 00:07:07 Vaping on planes in the bathroom? Well, have you ever been on one of those planes when like you're taking off and suddenly like all this, like I don't even know what it is. Steam, some type of like stuff is going on. Like, do you know what I'm talking about at all? Do you Randy? Like an impromptu steam room?
Starting point is 00:07:21 Yeah. I've never seen that Samuel L. Jackson movie. I've never seen snakes on a plane. Vapes on a plane. Right, different movie, Randy, but no. But are you saying that would be the time to do it? To try to sneak one in? Yeah, yeah, I've been on a plane before
Starting point is 00:07:35 where you're taking off and it's like, maybe it's the cooling system or whatever. It's just like, you see some type of steam in the plane. That's like the perfect time to vape, I think. Sure. I've never hit an elf bar on a plane though. Man, I I'm scared of being so addicted to something that I I wouldn't willing to risk being on a no
Starting point is 00:07:54 fly list. I saw a dude get yelled at for trying to toss us in and what yeah, you're not you're not allowed to do that. Wait, what do you mean? You're not allowed to do any tobacco products on planes. Really? Well, if it's just nicotine. I know, the guy, and so I was walking through and this guy was in first class and I was just walking out of the plane.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Hell yeah. And he had it open and he was taking one out and the flight attendant told him to put it away. And I was like, come on, come on, help him out. I wonder if it had been a Lucy, help him out. Help the guy out. I wonder if it had been a Lucy we'd been doing a different story here. It's true.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Can you just like, I don't know. Talk tobacco free, send the ad read, listen. I know, I thought about that. I was like, he could easily just be like, this is tobacco free. How many dudes have said that to their wife? Dude's tobacco free. No tobacco.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Yeah, no tobacco. And then you have to like try to explain the science as to why, and you're just like try to explain the science as to why. And you're just like, just trust me on this. You send her like a link. That's the hardest verbiage to get through to the wife. Yeah. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:08:52 Or like you have like a podcast and you have one of your listeners as a dentist and then they say it's okay to say and then you're like, no, no, my podcast listener dentist friends. That's okay. Yeah. If you're dead, if your literal dentist says it's fine. You gotta have a dentist friend. You gotta have a dentist friend. I had a hangover one time where I was worried
Starting point is 00:09:11 that my tooth was falling out. I called my dentist friend and I was like, is there any possibility that my tooth is gonna fall out? And he was like, dude, you need to drink some water and just go lay down, stop. Teeth don't just fall out from hangovers. Boy, that would be bad. That would be an all time bad hangover.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Like, dude, my tooth just fell out. This is when I was living at the Vape house when we were going to Rainey on Sundays. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I get that. That was a different time for you. It was a good time. Yeah. I think you're still in dental school at that time. Hey, shout out to speaking to the Vape house.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Shout out to Matt Sterrett. Dude posted some heat on the ground. No one knows who that is, but he lived of the vape house, shout out to Matt Sterrett. Dude. Posted some heat on the ground. No one knows who that is, but he lived at the vape house. Yeah, our old, my old roommate ended up, he's the one who kind of had the idea that we could use the studio at the vape house when we started circling back. And Dave and I are friends with him
Starting point is 00:09:57 and he's just being the man right now. He wears top hats. Yeah, he's just casually wearing top hats on the timeline. It's sick. He did send me a photo from some horse race he went to where there's just a guy in a top hat laying on the ground and he's got a cigarette coming out of his mouth and somebody's just lighting the cigarette
Starting point is 00:10:13 while he's laying on the ground. And I was like, that's a good photo. Like, I like the top hat cigarette combo. Me being a non-smoker my entire life is, I've really missed out on some good photos. Yeah. And that's disappointing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:26 I've gotten a couple, like for someone who botches their deal sigs, I've gotten a couple of really good photos of Brett smoking heaters. I think he's gotten better. He just has his moments. Yeah. He needs to be drunk. Now that he's more confident in it and knows that like, he's not going to get yelled at, he just has to put his chest out and then really embrace that sig
Starting point is 00:10:46 Just one puff in the office will go a long way. Sure We've got some big stuff going a lot of big stuff brun tomorrow is going to be a little something called cold call You guys familiar with this show? Uh, yeah cold call beyond the paywall very excited Uh, if you want to leave us your phone number so we can give you a call tomorrow Go to washmedia.com slash cold call fill out the number so we can give you a call tomorrow, go to washmedia.com slash cold call fill out the form and we'll give you a call. Yeah. And if we miss your or if you miss our call during the show and we've are in a forgiving
Starting point is 00:11:16 mood, you could DM Randy and be like, dude, we'll put Randy on DM watch. Yeah. So go follow Randy, DM Randy. If you're single, also DM watch. Yeah. So go follow Randy, DM Randy. If you're single, also DM Randy. Yes, if you DM me and you are not following me, I will not tell the guys that you DM. There you go, there you go. That's the move, that's the move.
Starting point is 00:11:34 That's a good move. We also have something, I guess you guys teased it last week, but I really wanna talk this out now. We had a listener recently reach out who has every episode of Touching Base downloaded. And correct me if i'm wrong Are we gonna kind of do a uh, what's that called mystery theater like a director? Yeah, I guess that's a director's commentary Little director's cut with some old segments from uh from the show that was yeah
Starting point is 00:11:55 We used to do a different podcast way back in the day. Um, if you're like a a dumb fuck and you're new here Um, dude, shout out shout to the dumb fuck and you're new here. Um, dude, shout out. Shout out to the dumb fucks. DFS. Uh, yeah. And we've got some fairly iconic moments for us. And, um, I think it would be fun to play them and just kind of let us, cause we have not gone back and listened. No. And I don't think I've listened to, I think, I think the only thing I've actually
Starting point is 00:12:21 listened to since touching base ended was like a couple minutes of the Wes and Dill interview. And even that, I might have just, I might just have some type of memory that I've made up. Like I'm not even positive that I've listened to that. So there's a ton that I just have forgotten about. I'm worried that we're different people now. We are. And it's, I tried to listen to some of the Wes and Dill and just hearing my voice, I was like, hearing myself plug LinkedIn, I'm like, oh God, it was a little cringy for me. Yeah, I'm excited.
Starting point is 00:12:54 But yeah, I think we might do something, drop something on Patreon this week or this weekend where we sit in here, maybe if that involves, if that classic segment involves an old producer named Micah, we bring him in and we just listen and talk through it. We have that might be fun We have to we might just need to figure out what day of the week Mike I can just come in and rip rip some of these. Yeah We also have the newsletter going washout sub stack comm I will be writing the state of wash media this week now that I've got
Starting point is 00:13:20 I'm collecting information regarding the office last week and I'm storing that information and I'm going to write that information on washed out sub stack.com. Okay, you picked a good week. A little worried about I'm a little worried about some stuff going on here, but we'll we'll we'll handle that later. Yeah, I mean. Yeah, we got the loud ass AC unit ready. Did we figure out what the issue was with the because I left? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um do you really want me to admit on air what it was? Did we figure out what the issue was with the, cause I left. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Do you really want me to admit on air what it was? Kinda. It was a filter issue. It was a filter issue. We have not replaced that filter since we got the air conditioning unit replaced last August. So the guy was like, yeah, it's really dirty. And it was on a low setting fan.
Starting point is 00:14:03 So like got the suction wasn't enough. And then the whole thing, like there was no airflow and it froze over. So he had to like de-ice it and everything and told us that we need to replace the filter and we should be doing that once a quarter. Yeah, but we've always been a company that exists without a filter.
Starting point is 00:14:18 That's kind of our thing. Yeah. We're like the vantage cigarette of podcast companies. It's true. So that's why it's on high right now. So that time out, we'll get airflow and we got a filter coming in. Once a quarter, replace the filter. That's what he said.
Starting point is 00:14:30 I've been replacing mine at home monthly. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going crazy. No, I think, Dave, I think for the integrity of your AC unit, I think that's probably the move. All right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:40 All right. You got two kids at home, man. True. Allergies, things of that nature. There's a lot of things of that nature a lot of things that nature Yeah, the tree could fall on it or something. Okay, that's Dude, don't worry. That's my stop, dude, bro. Let's go out this weekend.

Weather was was overcast and borderline nice. I got a text message on Friday of you walking off of a tea box
Starting point is 00:18:52 from from one of the gentlemen that you were with. And I was like, I was like, fuck, that sounds so good. This is while I was taking off on a plane. And I was just like, man, that sounds great. Yeah. And then I was like, man, I'm kind of bummed. They didn't ask me to play. And I was like, well, you've been out. Yeah. And then I was like, man, I'm kind of bummed that they didn't ask me to play. And I was like, well, you've been out of town. Yeah, we know you've been out of town.
Starting point is 00:19:07 Don't be a douche bag and like be upset that you didn't get invited to a tee time that you absolutely cannot make. Right, right, right, right. It's just that feeling. You know, from there, I did a really weird move, went home, saw that my lawn was getting a little bit overgrown. In my golf clothes and golf shoes, I mowed the lawn.
Starting point is 00:19:25 You know, you might as well. You already got clippings everywhere. That's, Alyssa's like, you just left your clothes on and your golf shoes. And I was like, I was like in the zone. It was like one of those little episodes where you're just like, I'm gonna get this done now. You know, and Randy wants to do like some whiteboard,
Starting point is 00:19:41 like itinerary stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And there's nothing that can stop him. That's the zone I got in. Dude, I told Sally last night, I was like, the bear has had a positive effect on me when it comes to cleaning the kitchen lately, because I've just been going in straight up bear mode and just like cleaning the kitchen as hard as I can,
Starting point is 00:19:55 as fast as I can to get it done. Yeah. And now that I've like adopted that, I love cleaning our kitchen. Every second counts. How far are you in the bear? So I have not watched any episodes. I'm on episode five. Uh I my
Starting point is 00:20:06 plan is I would like to finish it this week. Okay. Instead of playing FIFA this week, I am going to take that FIFA time and knock out two episodes a night before I can play FIFA. So, you may have missed this. This can be in your state of watch media. Did you hear him back in on Lost? I I did hear this. Uh I've never watched Lost on Lost? I did hear this. I've never watched Lost. I for some reason am.
Starting point is 00:20:28 What's it even streaming on? Netflix. Oh, OK. And look, I pretty much watched, watched like two or three episodes of Lost Friday night after I mowed the lawn. That sounds great. It was pretty delightful. Had a couple of red stripes. It was great. I guess Saturday was Saturday when the stuff went down. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Yeah, I was very, very much online for that. I was too. I was like, well, I just want to see. I want to see who's going to be the first person have to delete some tweets. Who's going to who's going to cover this, right? Which to delete some tweets. Who's going to cover this right? Which news outlet's going to have like the potential worst headline of all time?
Starting point is 00:21:09 Just a lot of things. So my screen time for that night is going to be very, very high. Also some Lost caught up on the boys. I'm all caught up on the boys. House of the Dragon, Hot D as Ross calls it, last night. Really good stuff, man. Really, really low key weekend.
Starting point is 00:21:26 How's the dragon living up to the expectations? Absolutely. I need somebody to watch it so I can talk about it with them. Randy, you're not watching it, right? I am. I watched episode two last night, so I'm slowly trying to get back into it. Something's wrong when I'm caught up on stuff and y'all aren't, except for Lost, which I have like, I don't know, like 300 hours left of that show. Lost. Yeah. I don't know, dude.
Starting point is 00:21:52 I never got into it because it was not something, my friends who were watching it didn't live near me, so I never heard anyone talk about it. And so I just never got into it, but I could see myself getting obsessed with it. Yeah. You know, it, had I watched it at the time, I would have been getting obsessed with it. Yeah. Had I watched it at the time, I would have been all in on it.
Starting point is 00:22:09 And I'm going back and I'm trying to, some of the stuff that's in it that I know like, isn't a revelation for TV now, like it's all been done since then. I'm like, okay, I gotta consider that this was probably groundbreaking 18 years ago or whatever. Yeah, that was a long time ago.
Starting point is 00:22:25 Yeah. I remember like visiting a friend at Michigan, like the University of Michigan, and we had to delay going out to watch a lost episode, so there were no spoilers. And I was just sitting there like, man, I don't even know who these people are. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:22:39 I don't wanna do this right now. Yeah, that's hilarious. That's exactly how I felt when I watched 2001 of Space Odyssey on the plane. I was like, this shit is like kind of nowadays, like, oh, it was groundbreaking. Breaking back then, like, it was probably super, super cool. But you have to consider that, like, I'm coming from watching Interstellar first. Sure. It's like, it's like watching old time basketball. Yeah. No
Starting point is 00:23:04 3.1. Yeah. No three point line. Yeah, you're like, oh, okay, well look, yeah, you can't really compare the eras. Yeah. Different time. Yeah. It's like listening to early Beatles. I like early Beatles. You don't want to hold my hand?
Starting point is 00:23:17 That's a good song. Twist and Shout? I don't have enough Beatles knowledge to talk shit. They say it's your birthday. Gonna have a good time. Dylan hates the Beatles. The Beatles. My father-in-law let me borrow some Beatles vinyl
Starting point is 00:23:33 and I decided to listen to some songs that I'd never heard before. And I have a new appreciation for them, but it's still just simply not a band that I care about. Thanks for giving us a chance. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm more interested in their lore.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Sure. Yeah. The more like drug, vibe-y stuff I never got into. I only liked their early like pop rock stuff. Paperback ride. Ha. You know that one. Who could forget that timeless one? Dude, I should sing. I should be a Beatle. You know that one. Who could forget that timeless
Starting point is 00:24:05 one? Dude, I should sing. I should be a beetle. You should. What'd you do? This weekend? Uh Sally and I took our sons to a city I'd never been to called Cashers, North Carolina. Never been in North Carolina before. It's a beautiful state. We flew into South Carolina, also a beautiful state. But the drive up to the mountains is just next level stuff. Did you rent a car? No, we got a ride from the airport to the hotel, didn't rent a car. When you're staying
Starting point is 00:24:39 at a resort, I always worry that if I rent a car and keep it at the resort and I'm not planning to use that car very much, that it's going to be like $100 a night to valet the car overnight because they don't have a parking lot and stuff. That was probably a smart move. Yeah, it just kind of scared me a little bit. But yeah, we had a good time. It was very simple, straightforward vacation.
Starting point is 00:25:00 We hadn't taken Charlie, our youngest, on vacation yet. And so I'll just do my daily routine. Here's my daily routine, Dave. I would wake up every morning. I'd be out the door for a nice little walk around 7.30. I'd return around 8.30, 8.45. The boys would be awake. We'd go to breakfast.
Starting point is 00:25:18 I would eat some eggs. I was big on eggs this trip. Not sure why. I don't usually like eggs that much. I was big on eggs this trip, not sure why. I don't usually like eggs that much. I was big on pastries. And then I just took Fritz to the pool every day and he just would wear himself out. And it was just a delightful time.
Starting point is 00:25:34 The most gratifying thing that's happened with Fritz in the longest time was that he swam across the pool with no help, not the long way, just the short way, but he started on a step, jumped off the step himself, swam across the pool and got to the other steps. And just seeing the look on his face, when he got up out of the water, I was so shocked at what happened,
Starting point is 00:25:54 that like there was a pause. And then I threw my hands in the air like this. And then he threw his hands in the air and it was just like, it was just scenes. What a moment. What a moment. Fight. Yeah, it was major, major fight energy.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Yeah, then that we just hung out, played some golf, played one exactly one single round of golf. The greens were rolling out of 13 hit one of the best of pro shots I've ever hit in my entire life based on where the ball landed. And must have just cooked it a little too much. Had a little spin on it, just rolled off the front of the green, ended up triple bogeying, just not great. Solo?
Starting point is 00:26:27 Solo round, solo round. I was paired up with a dude, but I moved my tee time up and so I just hung this dude out to dry. Felt really bad for him. I had to do what I had to do. I like the solo round on vacation. Yeah, it was kinda great. I played the final hole with the number 10 ranked
Starting point is 00:26:44 junior women's, or junior girls golfer. And I don't know what came over me on that hole, but I did birdie the hole. So it made me look really good in front of maybe a future LPGA Tour player. Remember the name. I don't remember the name, unfortunately. I might be able to figure it out,
Starting point is 00:26:59 but I just, I don't know if I'd wanna spend my time Googling junior golfers. Yeah, be careful. Yeah, yeah, it's just not something you wanna do. But yeah, other than that, it was a pretty chill weekend. We got back on Friday and just kind of hung out. It's nice having two days to just do whatever the hell we wanted in town. I didn't play my Zoc card this weekend, Dave. I haven't played my Zoc card in over a week. What was the best meal you had? So the place where we were staying, they had a dining room and they switched the menu every night, but they essentially had
Starting point is 00:27:30 like three different menus that you could get every night. OK, there was a duck dish that was just simply life changing. And I had it twice when I was there. Oh, yeah. It was just so good. So it tasted like fall. It was just a beautiful thing. The pool also had a chicken sandwich made by the chef whose name was Mitch. He called it the Mitch filet And so I was just going off on that Mitch filet at the pool every day. It's filet Nice. I don't hate the name Mitch filet for no. I like it. Um, did you hear my news?
Starting point is 00:28:00 No, you know how like the last month, I've been telling people I'm going to Asheville for that wedding in October because you're Asheville is by what hour north of where you were. Yeah. Yeah, I think we flew out of Asheville. Okay. That wedding is not in Asheville. It's in
Starting point is 00:28:16 Pinehurst. Oh, okay. I completely have been out of the loop on this. Are you just flying in there? I don't even think I'm flying in. But can you just not this? This is great news for D man, right? It's the golf wise. This is good news.
Starting point is 00:28:27 This opens up Tobacco Road. Our kids going now. OK, yeah. Not only eating, I kind of say it might just be me. Oh, no, no, yet. We don't know if all I'm saying is from a golf perspective, that might be like best case scenario to get as many rounds in as possible. Yeah. That being said, there's no kids involved, I don't think
Starting point is 00:28:46 Sally would be bummed if there were no kids at like at a wedding. And she had all the time in the world to do whatever she wanted while I played golf the entire time. Yeah. So it's, it's just going to be, uh, me, uh, my family, uncles and stuff playing golf, so I've already got some some people sending me some good recs. I've been I'm such a dummy. Like my sister listened to the show and was like she called me she's like you know the wedding is not in
Starting point is 00:29:11 Asheville. I don't know where you got that. Someone mentioned Asheville and I think I was just so out of the loop. Oh yeah I guess that's where it is. When we landed I was talking to someone and I said something like yeah I've never been in North Carolina before and they looked at me and they're like you're in South Carolina. Yeah I was like yeah dude I totally talking to someone and I said something like, yeah, I've never been in North Carolina before. And they looked at me and they're like, you're in South Carolina. I was like, yeah, dude, I totally knew that. I totally knew that, but I'm going to North Carolina. I'm going there. It's all Carolina.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Yeah. I would love to go back to North Carolina. Awesome state from what I saw. The mountains are beautiful. It reminded me of Northern Michigan, but the trees were taller and the mountains were just awesome. Were they blue though? No blue mountains. No blue mountains, unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:29:52 Yeah, I don't think we got too many of those. Can we hear from our friends over at BetterHelp? This show is sponsored by BetterHelp. Dylan and I were talking the other day. I think we got a question on exactly five minutes that was what's a saying that has stuck with you for a long time. And one of those things was comparison to the thief of joy.
Starting point is 00:30:12 And it's easy to envy other people's lives. It might look like they have it all together on Instagram, but in reality, they probably don't. But therapy is something that can help you focus on what you want instead of comparing yourself to others and what they have, so you can start living your best life. I've never shied away from using therapy to get my mind right. I've been using therapy for, I don't even know at this point, probably seven years.
Starting point is 00:30:35 I kind of use it on an as needed basis. I used to have regular appointments set up every single week, but when I stopped needing as much, I just started doing it kind of spotily. It's just kind of a touch and go thing for me, but that's always been a good thing. If you're thinking of starting therapy yourself, I implore you to give Better Help a try. It's entirely online. It's designed to be convenient, flexible and suited to your schedule. All you have to do is fill out a brief questionnaire. You get matched with a licensed therapist and you can switch therapists at any time for no additional charge. Stop comparing and start focusing with better help.

What a David what a What a weird weird where were you where were you my house I Was at my home and Twitter of course, I think I was scanning Twitter for like I was watching like fallen Rangers Astros the end of that game and I saw like shots fired whatever
Starting point is 00:31:48 And so I like flipped on like the news That's how it happened. I called my parents see if they were watching I uh, I don't think I understood the gravity of a assassination attempt on a former president in the moment because it's like if this happened to Barack Obama, I think I would think differently of it because like he's not in a current race. There's not the chaos surrounding the man's life. Like there is Trump, like there's not so many moving parts. And so my reaction wasn't like, oh my God, they just tried to kill a former president. It was like, it was just more Donald Trump driven
Starting point is 00:32:17 than anything. I had just picked up two skirt steaks, Dave, for some beef fajitas on the grill. Okay. I'd gotten those all prepped, put them on a nice tray, brought them out, tossed them on the grill, fired up a little, grateful dead, you're up 72, so I could time out my flips on the grill using a song.
Starting point is 00:32:39 Something I've been doing this summer. Something I've been doing this summer. That's impressive. And then I looked at my phone and I had a text and it was just, Trump got shot. I had a text that was just Trump got shot. I was like what? Excuse me? Yeah. Um it wasn't real to me until like Kid Rock weighed
Starting point is 00:32:54 in. Yeah. I thought the same thing. I didn't even know if it was true until Kid Rock weighed in. I was like, man, how do I know this really happened? Like until until the uh the rock, the bull god himself chimes in and like, where's he on this? And also, I really wasn't sure until like Elon had like really used the, I don't know, the six minutes immediately after to say, you know what, I've seen enough, I'm endorsing
Starting point is 00:33:20 this guy. Which I really have been thinking about that a lot. And like, it's just it felt like a wild move to just be like, this is the time to do it. I'm going to make how do I make this about it? I didn't even see that I have a lot muted. Admittedly, I just get too annoyed with his nerd like nerdness. Yeah, no, not nerdness, dorkness in like, I swear, in like hour after, it was like, all right, well, I'm endorsing this guy. And then also- We knew you were endorsing him anyway.
Starting point is 00:33:49 Yeah. I mean, it was just weird. But then he was like- We've seen your likes that you took away. He usually, then he used that time to be like, oh, also, this is crazy. Someone tried to assassinate an ex-president. I had a couple people try to kill me in the last like few months. Really? So he tried to make it about- Oh, I thought you meant you. Sorry, I thought you were
Starting point is 00:34:07 talking about yourself. No, no, no. I didn't know you had shooters out there. Probably. Probably. People don't like my takes. But yeah, he was like, I was just like watching it and I'm like, man, this is the ultimate kid who went to Paris and like went by the Notre Dame Cathedral and as it's burning, and they're in Milwaukee or wherever they lived, they're like, oh my God, I was just there last summer. It's like, yeah, this isn't really about you right now. See, my issue was that because of the situation I was in, I thought I had white boy summer too close to the sun. I was out there grilling.
Starting point is 00:34:44 I was wearing some shorts that had a five inch inseam. I had a polo on with a country club logo on it. Dead playing. You know, I was getting ready to sit down and watch some sports and like suddenly Trump got shot and I was like, yeah, it's probably time to take the polo off. Like this white boy's summer is kind of going too far. It went too far. Chet had to get on there and tell him. Can we hear what Kid Rock had to say for anyone who's maybe not following? It was good to have him.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Robert Richie. It was good to have him break it down like bit by bit. You fuck with Trump, you fuck with me. You fuck with Trump, you fuck with me. A lot of people pointing out that this is the angriest anyone's ever been on a pontoon boat. God, he really is on a pontoon boat. He's wearing a hat that says white boy of the summer. Of the year.
Starting point is 00:35:38 Of the year. Actually white boy of the summer might go harder to me than white boy of the year. Dude, I'm telling you, he is not the white boy of the year. He's not, he's not. Or the summer, there's not me than white boy the dude he is i'm telling you he is not the white boy of the year he's not he's not summer there's not i'm sorry man there might there were look 2003 probably held that title that's a long time ago dude it's been two decades since he's even sniffed white boy of the year please if you're if you're interested in kid rock in general uh if you want to go back 13 years to when he released his Born Free album Please go watch some interviews around that time because you will see the the way that this man has politicized himself in hilarious ways
Starting point is 00:36:10 Based on what he tried to do at that time, which was just be Bob Seeger He's like I just want to be a classic American musician. I don't want to ruffle any feathers I think the government's all messed up on both sides. Hey, yeah, man. These guys both both sides can get it I did see someone recently say that Kid Rocks just trying to hold on to any fame that he has and he'll do anything to Do it based on like sources from the inside and I was like, yeah, I guess that does check out He does have heaters though. That's the thing the The tough thing about that video. He put out is like that the the guy who did this was immediately Murdered uh was immediately
Starting point is 00:36:46 murdered or was immediately killed. Yeah. Yeah. Secret service sniper. So, he'll never see that video. No, they're like that kid rocks mad at him but that's a good deterrent for anyone who's got any ideas going forward. Be like, fuck. I
Starting point is 00:37:01 don't want to piss off Kid Rock. No, no. Like that was going to be a lot of people sitting at their ballot getting ready to check Joe Biden. They're going to think wait is that **** with Trump if you yeah, I guess it is. Yeah, you know, I mean you're either with us or against us. He
Starting point is 00:37:14 issued. He drew the line. What if Kid Rock is sneaky slated as like his running mate this entire time and he's like hold on. Don't kill my don't kill my guy right now. Yeah, I just you're supposed to do that when I'm in office so I can be president Kid Rock. I don't know. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:37:25 I just don't know if I can support a Kid Rock VP bid. I feel like we'll find out the next couple of days. Yeah, I feel like Trump has enough of a stronghold on this election at this point that he could do a bit vice president and I still think it would be fine. I'd be I think I'd be more okay with it. It's uh it just picks it's like the little sass pointing at himself Like he just picks like a random dude Wait, you see all the Baron memes like this country's fucked for the next 50 years because Baron's just gonna avenge his father's
Starting point is 00:37:55 You know assassination attempt. Oh man. Yeah Baron Baron Baron grows stronger by the day Barons gonna be on his Batman grind. That was fucking, that was a really surreal evening. It's weird. It's weird. I don't think anyone in the United States is like pleading like just absolutely begging for any of our presidential candidates to be shot. And if you are, that's kind of fucked up.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Typically no. Yeah. It's not something I usually. Even if you don't like the guy enough to like want that, like you have to realize that that's not a good thing. Like that's not something I usually. Even if you don't like the guy enough to like want that, like you have to realize that that's not a good thing. Like that's not a good thing, generally speaking. No. For the health of the, the health of the Republic. I will say, I'm surprised this hasn't happened
Starting point is 00:38:35 sooner in our lives. Like I'm surprised, I'm surprised that this is the first time that we've really had to directly head on confront something like this when it comes to like our presidents. Yeah Yeah, cuz Reagan was the last one The the Iraqi journalists threw shoes at W Which wasn't technically an assassination. It was still like you don't do that. He ate that though dub just dodged it
Starting point is 00:39:00 Yeah, have you even like hit him with a little smile, dude, he didn't even try to get away from the podium. He just stood there. Yeah, it was one of that was really bizarre too. Dog behavior. This was uh but he's I mean if you think about it, he's dodged two shoes. Where's he getting the third from? You can kind of just stand there. Yeah, that's true. That's a good point. I don't know if I'd have the presence of mind to count the shoes as they're flying by my head. Yeah, that's why he's he was the president and you're not. That's true. He's quick on his feet. Yep. He's the good point. I don't know if I'd have the presence of mind to count the shoes as they're flying by my head. That's why he's the, he was the president and you're not.
Starting point is 00:39:26 That's true. He's quick on his feet. Yep. He's the decider. Yep. I thought it was a very strange that the first thing I noticed, two things I noticed immediately
Starting point is 00:39:37 was the photographer. I think he's an AP photographer who didn't, didn't miss a beat and just kept like getting the shots and he eventually got that shot of like a Trump with his fist. Crazy. Now I went in and looked into that guy just cause I'm like, dude, this is bad-ass and he's already won him one Pulitzer he's going to win another one for this and the guy's just like a certified bad-ass photographer.
Starting point is 00:39:57 That's sweet. And there's bullets popping off and he's just doesn't, doesn't even face him. It's it's, it was wild. You need people like that. You do. and he's just popping off and they scared to murder okay. Are they, were they like, honest question, are they scared to murder this guy on a roof? Cause they don't know who he is and they don't want to like, you know, raise a flag to this like, cause you can't do anything but shoot him.
Starting point is 00:40:34 I don't know. We're going to find out because these people are going to have to testify the people in charge of security detail, secret service. But like, I think that they are not, are they allowed to engage a target before they shoot? That's insane. That's the truth.
Starting point is 00:40:52 That's how it works. I mean, you think there's a, here's a guy in a t-shirt and cargo pants. It doesn't make any sense. And there's a lot of smarter people who can break this down. But like, just me, just just guy watching, I'm like, it seems like, it seems like somebody messed up big time here. Yeah. Yeah. Because I feel like
Starting point is 00:41:12 there's people who have some bad tweets that don't even get to go to this event. Because it's like, they know everybody who's there. And it's like, hey, this guy, everybody saw him. That's the weirdest part is the you go every morning, you look at Twitter, here's a new video of some like people, like 10 people being like, hey guy on the roof with a gun. Oh, there's a guy right here. No, he's right there. With a gun pointed at the person
Starting point is 00:41:35 who's supposed to be president. Yeah. Should we? He's in a t-shirt and like jeans, like it's not confusing. That guy's not supposed to be up there. Yeah. I don't get it.
Starting point is 00:41:48 Yeah, I don't I don't really get it. Yeah, I don't I don't plan on ever trying to assassinate anyone. I can't speak for anyone else in this room. I also do not plan to assess. No, not not in the cards for your boy. If I do, it's going to be because the government contracted me to, and they will take my life if I don't do it.
Starting point is 00:42:10 MK Ultra, maybe a little bit too. Oh, little Mickey Ultra? Is that like a festival in Vegas or something? Yeah, sure. I had like eight Mick Ultras on the course the other day. So they were doing free Mickey Bang Bangs at Kelly's Irish Pub the other day? I would feel weird ordering a Mickey Bang Bang at Kelly's Irish Pub. I was thinking about it. I was like, even if I was at Kelly's Irish pub the other day. I would feel weird ordering a Mickey bang.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Right. Kelly's Irish. I was thinking about it. I was like, even if I was at Kelly's Irish pub and they were giving out free Michelob ultras, I think I'm still just paying eight dollars for a Guinness. Because I don't think I can sit in there drinking a Mickey bang bang. Is it a test? Is it a like, see who takes it?
Starting point is 00:42:40 They put your photo on the blacklist. You they put your photo on the wall. Yeah, this this dumbass drink a Michelob ultra in our bar. Um, I saw Birkenstock just open a store and they're giving away Birkenstocks today. Oh yeah. Like in Austin. Yeah. That's a win, wear, what play. I saw them post about it. Must not have been in my deadhead Facebook group. Yeah. Honestly, I'm surprised you're even here today. Yeah, I figured I thought I should be waiting in line right now trying to get some new Boston's. Yeah. Yeah, my clogs are disgusting. Oh, yeah. Oh, dude. We should do the will
Starting point is 00:43:13 will clog sniff challenge where each of you has to sniff it. No, I just don't want to sniff clogs. I think my clog sniffing days are behind me. I think all the listeners just did the meme of when you go down, when you start losing in a video game, where you sit forward. They all want the clog sniff challenge. I'm more fogs than clogs.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Or gogs than fogs and clogs. Randy, can we put up the White Boy Summer status report? Yes, yes, yes. Thank you. Of course, of course. And where are we at on this? And how's it stacking up to Braddy Day? This is the best recap I've seen so far summer status report. Yes, yes, yes. Thank you. Of course, of course. Where are we at on this? And how's it stacking up to Bradie? This is the best recap I've seen so far of white boy summer.
Starting point is 00:43:50 Donald Trump convicted, it says stock up. Zin shortage, stock down. Cameron Brink stock up. Hunter Biden's crack smoking, stock up. Joey Chestnut, fourth of July, stock down. Christian McCaffrey, Madden cover, stock up. Cameron Brink, ACL tear. That was tough for everybody.
Starting point is 00:44:08 But then Donald Trump survives assassination, stock up. Plays golf for the next day. Yeah, look. Probably better than I did. That is the biggest total frat move, I think that's been pulled since I even knew what total frat move was. It's the obvious play is to say, well, that's TFM,
Starting point is 00:44:23 but everyone was thinking it like ah, man if only there was like a website a Social sensation cultural sensation that would have documented this. Did you see the reddit post that was going viral? about a alleged bag boy That watched some of the round it made its way into a group text and everyone was kind of like I don't know the alleged story was that Trump drained a pot and said, unlike the shooter, I don't miss. Which if he actually, that's something that he would say.
Starting point is 00:44:53 That I believe it. Having seen like footage of him recently at a golf course talking to people, like just, and didn't know he's been recorded. I can totally see him saying that. If he hasn't said it, he's going to say it at some point. How pumped is he that he's, like, obviously he's pumped he survived just for life reasons, but like- Life is good. If there's one person that wants to survive an assassination attempt, it's gotta be him.
Starting point is 00:45:17 He's gotta be pumped right now. You gotta say, man, very, you really don't see people surviving the attempt and then honestly, like dropping the coldest photo of all time, mainly because like, uh, you think that they wouldn't be allowed to do that because of their security detail, like rushing them out of there. How did, how did they let him get on? How did they let the shooter on? How do they let him get up? Like, I don't know. It's a very odd. There's some incompetence going on there. Yeah. It makes me wonder, you know, you see enough movies about like secret service shit and it's like, Very odd. There's some incompetence going on there. Yeah, it makes me wonder.
Starting point is 00:45:45 You know, you see enough movies about like secret service shit and it's like, oh, they got eyes on every window, on every rooftop. They got everything. Please watch Snake Eyes. Nick Cage. Okay. It's so good.
Starting point is 00:46:00 Okay. Snake Eyes. Is this the one you told me about recently? It's in Vegas. Ah, it's during a prize fight. Nick Cage. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm
Starting point is 00:46:16 not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not Cage. I'll give it a shot. It's a plus. OK, plus. Yeah, I. I don't know, man. I am pretty good. The memes are pretty good. My favorite meme was Trump as the Matrix guy.
Starting point is 00:46:36 As Neo, just dodging bullets. I was good. Like, I don't know why it just was perfect. I liked his head photoshopped on 50 and the many men playing. And also 50 put that as his background when he was at a concert. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:50 It's a really poorly done Photoshop too. It's phenomenal. That's what makes it good. He, I mean, I hate to say it, but like he turned, if he has not tilt his head or turn his head just slightly, like we're dealing with a very, very different situation. Yeah. I'll be honest. I don't think I'd wanted to come. I don't think I would want to come in to the office or turn his head just slightly like we're dealing with a very very uh different situation yeah i'll be honest i don't think i'd wanted to come i don't think i would want to come into the office and record a podcast if he had died like i would kind of want to take the day off we got to like
Starting point is 00:47:14 figure out our tone it's just not so hey can we joke about brad summer yeah we do. Uh, we just talked Charlie XCX the whole time. Yeah. It's just weird. Is that why Dylan took the morning off? Yeah. Yep. I heard he was heading out, uh, DC way. Hmm. Four.
Starting point is 00:47:40 Going to go put his fist in the air. Okay. Support the orange man. He's got to figure it out himself where the breakdown happened. Well, you know, had he been there, I'd gone down different. Let me just say also,
Starting point is 00:47:55 there's a ton of people in Houston who still don't have power. And I just wanna give a shout out if you're able to listen. I can't believe it, man. I grossly underestimated that number. And then I had friends who I hadn't heard from in a while like in Group text and like oh, yeah, we don't have power. We had to leave town. We had to go blah blah blah my hair
Starting point is 00:48:09 Oh, dude, Houstonites get real screwed. That's bad. Like Houston got it really bad during the freeze They get it bad like they get any hurricane stuff gets bad I know I know some people in Houston that have had to like been displaced from their place for like three months before Because they had to do repairs after major weather events and I'm like me what do you do if you don't have the means to like it's yeah right well really really I know one person who forced her landlord to put her up in a really nice hotel for three months it's like no I pay a lot of money to live here and I'm now out because of you she ended up living free go oh my
Starting point is 00:48:44 god that's a brat girl summer right that's a brat girl summer right there. That's a brat girl summer dude. Let's go. Well, of course say it's great that Trump survived and everything but it's sad that at least one person lost their life. Yeah. I don't know. I like I knew there was one other person that was critical. Oh, firefighter. Yeah. Yeah. That's awful. So, watching that. I really don't. I just like, if there's one thing that this country does not need,
Starting point is 00:49:07 it's like, it's this, it's this. There's already enough political divide in this election during the election year. We don't really need shooters out there. Yeah, and it's really weird to have Twitter during this. Yeah, we've always said that we would, Randy brought it up in the office earlier. We've always talked about if we could have Twitter
Starting point is 00:49:29 for one day, what would it be? And like JFK assassinations obviously on that list at some point. OJ White Bronco. Yeah, and now that this happened, I wasn't glued to my phone as much as I thought I would be. If anything, I was kind of like, oh, I kind of want to not think about this.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Oh, I was, I was at a bar and it was interesting seeing it going around, people was kind of like, oh, I kind of want to not think about this. Oh, I was, I was at a bar and like, it was interesting seeing it going around, like people like noticing, like showing pictures, like, oh, Trump got shot and then like, people are sharing memes with each other. It was very interesting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:54 And then he was at a bar. Dude, the most, I don't know why this stuck out, but the major life event where I was out in public, where it kind of like blew my mind, how it infiltrated the general public around me was the black dress or white dress, black and blue or white and gold. I thought you were gonna say Kobe.
Starting point is 00:50:13 Kobe was in Breckenridge. That was kind of interesting. Y'all were like skiing, skiing. Yeah. I was in a bar. That was wild to see people getting off the mountain and checking their phone just to see what time it was, see if they had any calls, whatever.
Starting point is 00:50:24 And then seeing that Kobe had died, like every single person was like, oh my God, oh my God. Sure. I was also out somewhere when they caught the Boston bomber. Maybe I wasn't out, but they had the live, they had like the live manhunt on the TV at the bar that we were watching
Starting point is 00:50:39 and everybody was just glued to it pounding beers and it was really fun. I was in a fraternity basement party for that. It was great, it was great.

I like when people get flustered during ad reads because it makes me feel better when I do. I could feel myself just out there just treading water and then slowly I was like, oh no, just fucking and threw the mic away. Well, I had an episode of retail therapy the other day where I just straight up did ad reads from the year before. Oh God. Yeah. Yeah. You always want to do ads that are a year old.
Starting point is 00:53:07 How? Because I have all my bookmarks. I have my stuff. And then when I type in ad calendar and press enter, the first thing that comes up is the one that I visited more because it was all of last year, which is 2023. It's just a whole thing. Brett has it set up pretty idiot proof. Yeah. But if there's something about wash media, we will figure out a way to f**k it up. We will. Yeah. And we might make content out of it. It's a little peek behind the curtain.
Starting point is 00:53:34 I'd like to make a play to hire some some nice young ladies. Randy, can we see the video? Randy keeps saying that. Can we see the video from the viral office girls? Oh, yeah. I saw this video and immediately it was like, yep, I love this. I can tell the internet's going to hate this
Starting point is 00:53:50 and this is going to be a very entertaining time. You know immediately that the internet's not gonna like it. Let's just press play on this. Gen Z boss in a mini, Gen Z boss in a mini, itty bitty titties in a bob, itty bitty titties in a bob, five foot three in an attitude, five foot three in an attitude. They're perfect. Dude, I'm so Gen Z boss in a mini. See dude, I'm more fake tan hands in a hoop.
Starting point is 00:54:26 You think so? Mm-hmm. Randy, what are you, 5'3 in an attitude? I was thinking I was more itty bitty titty and a bob. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. I don't know why these girls are getting shit.
Starting point is 00:54:41 These are the happiest women in corporate America or corporate wherever they are right now corporate Britain right now Like where do they work? Let them thrive? It seems like they've got a good company culture. They work for a skincare company Do you know what this is all based off of? Yes, I did not realize I I'll be honest Dave. I thought this was straight-up just brat summer shit You thought it was just bratty behavior. Yeah, I thought these girls were just being brats I didn't realize that there was a previous tick-tock that this was derived from yeah, which Randy can play now been a while Come on there Dang it tick-tock tick-tock being a China dude, I'm gonna refresh the page. Okay. So I'd like to recreate one of these videos at Wash Media, but I do have some stipulations
Starting point is 00:55:37 or as some people call them non-negotiables. Okay. One, we can't do it in the office. Two, we cannot be sober. It would have to be a night out where we're just hammered. Rainy Street would be terrible. So exactly. We'd have to be on Rainy Street and come up with one and just
Starting point is 00:55:53 be drunk enough to do it shamelessly and then not think about it the next day when we edit the video together. I'll probably drink a lot of Saturday. Yeah. Should we do a golf course one? Oh, man. Your boys would hate that. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:56:07 Your non-content boys would be like, you guys need to fucking get off this golf course right now. We still do have one TikTok in our drafts that never saw the light of day that is the same situation that you said that we filmed out at a bar and I never got clearance to post it. And it was, you see me across the bar.
Starting point is 00:56:25 And it was like the really cringy one. Is it Dylan? Is it Dylan? Yeah. He wouldn't let you post it? Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Which one is this? It was like-
Starting point is 00:56:36 It's like the boys are talking and mixing up. And then one of the guys just kind of notices and the camera and it's like, they make eyes with the camera and it's just kind of like. I don't remember us doing this. I don't remember doing this either. The one in the after release this. Wait, you have it. Dylan's out. Dylan's out today. Let's just let's just release it. All right. I'll see if it's still in the drafts if I still have it because yeah, I had it. It was pretty funny.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Where did what bar did we do it at? It was at parlor and yard. I don't know why we were out. Oh God. Dude, I can't imagine going to parlor and yard and having to film some shit like that. Dude, the fastest way to kill an idea at wash media is to do the idea and then have one person in the office be like, is it kind of cringe?
Starting point is 00:57:20 The second it has that stink on it, it's like, oh, that idea is dead. We're never doing this again. Oh when we I think I did that when we remade the Russell Wilson What was it where he's pointing up he's doing the pointy thing Bronco Broncos nation, let's ride. No, it was after that. It was I Can't even remember what it was I got suckered into doing it and I felt like I had to do it. And like Cali was running our socials. And I remember just being like, I can't do this. This is bad.
Starting point is 00:57:50 This is cringe. What's the golf version of what these girls are doing? Oh man. I don't know if it's the vert same thing, but like you see the guys do the bit where it's just one guy about to tee off and he's about to, he takes it back and then he just starts like hip thrusting.
Starting point is 00:58:06 Okay. You know what I'm talking about? And then it pans back and it's like all the guys are just sitting there hip thrusting. That's a great video though. It's a good video. I've seen it remade many times. What's the song? The song will stick in your head.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Is it Dan Kuzuro? Danza Kuduro? Yeah, yeah. Pretty sure. By Don Omar? It might be. Danza Kuduro? Yeah, yeah, pretty sure. By Don Omar? It might be. Donza Kuduro. We'll go with that.
Starting point is 00:58:28 See I'm. Look, shout out to these gals. And their skincare. Out of bounds driving us in. Out of bounds driving us in. Oh yeah. That's good. That's the stuff.
Starting point is 00:58:41 England kind of needs it. They took that out yesterday. Harry Kane as bad as they say. One three putt in a gimme. Oh. One three putt in a gimme. That's pretty good. He's been in eight finals. Sure.
Starting point is 00:58:58 He has zero assists and zero goals in any of those finals. He has zero trophies to show in his major professional career. I will be honest England seemed to be a more dangerous team when he was off the field. I don't know David. Been a wild, wild footy times. What happened in the... dude... was it Miami? Yeah they had the Copa America final last night. For those who don't they had the Copa America final last night. For those who don't know what the Copa America is, it's all the nations on essentially this side
Starting point is 00:59:30 of the hemisphere that play in a soccer tournament. And it's like World Cup style, you know, it's a big deal. And yeah, they had the final in Miami last night and they ended up just having terrible security. I think there were a lot of Colombian fans that showed up, not only for the mat. I think, one, lot of Colombian fans that showed up, not only for the mat. I think, one, I think Colombian fans are just a wild bunch. Two, Shakira was playing at halftime, Super Bowl vibes.
Starting point is 00:59:52 They're in the final. People were just trying to get in. Minutes before kickoff, they just had people climbing through. It was wild. People in the ventilation. Yeah. I will admit, I fell asleep for most of the game.
Starting point is 01:00:03 I also fell asleep for most of the Euro final. Not most of it, I fell asleep from about the 40th minute to the 70th minute. Oh my God. And it was not good. I was just a tired boy yesterday, but yeah, it's weird. It's like having the World Cup be two years from now and seeing these kinds of issues is not what you wanna see.
Starting point is 01:00:22 No, not at all. It also like, I hate to say this, but like, it makes me not, like, I had these visions of me taking my son to like a World Cup game. And then I saw videos yesterday of people losing their kids in stampeds getting into the arenas or the stadium. And I was just like, oh, my son will be five at that time. Do I really want to bring a five-year-old to something that could look like this?
Starting point is 01:00:42 That's a great point. In Arlington, right? Arlington, Houston. I would like to go to one game outside of Texas, but this, I don't know, we'll see how it goes. I wanna go to Arrowhead for some reason. You lose Fritz for a minute and you look up and he's just crawling through the ventilation.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Yeah, exactly. Oh, he's up straight up there. Is it weird that my number one choice for going to a World cup game outside of Texas is Arrowhead Stadium? No. I think it'd be easy to be in Kansas City. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:11 I think it's a bad-ass stadium. The flight would be relatively easy there. And I think like getting to the stadium versus if you go to like MetLife or somewhere else, like I just feel like Kansas City would be an easy one. No, I think that's good. And you might get Taylor Swift there. I sent you the video.
Starting point is 01:01:26 You think they're still together? Just saying. I don't know, did you see who was playing beer pong with Miles Teller? Travis? Yeah. Kelly Teller, Miles's wife, posted an Instagram photo dump this past weekend
Starting point is 01:01:39 and one of the videos in it is just like Chase Crawford, some other person, Travis Kelsey, and it might have been Sean White and Miles Teller just playing beer pong together. Okay. I'd like to make fun of them for playing beer pong, but like I really can't. No. Speaking of Sean White. I pour beer down my pants. Have you watched the Real Bros movie yet? No. So I didn't watch much TV while we were out of town and Real Bro's movie is lingering hard. Is it good? It's good. What's the guy's name? Jimmy Tatro? No, the guy in the movie who has got a hilarious name. Oh, Jathu? Jathu. For some reason, I can never remember the name Jathu, but it's a hilarious name. No, I really enjoyed it.
Starting point is 01:02:25 It felt just as good as all the other stuff too. I can't wait. It might be tonight. Might be tonight. Have you watched the episode two of the boys? I have not watched any of this season of the boys yet. So, unfortunately not. Can I talk something out with you guys?
Starting point is 01:02:40 I didn't hit anyone with my car again, but I did have a contentious situation transpire. Okay. I want to know if I know I want to know what I needed to do in this situation. We were on the plane. We were heading home. We had just boarded the plane in Atlanta. Southwest? Delta. Okay. We're on the plane and the plane is when I get on the plane, I hear one of the flight attendants complaining. He's complaining to the other flight attendant saying, we only had five minutes to clean up this plane and now they're sending people on already.
Starting point is 01:03:13 And when I'm five feet away from the guy and he's complaining about the people getting on the plane, I kind of felt like a dumb ass. Like, well, cool, I'm just right here just being the thorn in your side. I'm really sorry. If there's anything, I'm willing to clean stuff out of the seat back if you want me to.
Starting point is 01:03:26 Like if you need me to sit in a certain area for a couple of minutes to whatever. And I could tell the guy was in a mood. I also had a son who was in a mood. Three-year-olds don't like flying. They don't like connecting. They don't like anything. So they take off and they bring out the drink situation.
Starting point is 01:03:49 So they've got the big drink cart and the drink cart is right next to me. So my shoulder's like touching the drink cart. The grumpy flight attendant is handling the people in the back, like behind the drink cart. The nice flight attendant is handling everyone forward from the drink cart. My son sees that there are some mini sun chips, which like don't even get me started on this is what he's simping for.
Starting point is 01:04:09 You know how much I hate Sun chips. So seeing my son do it, it's just like, what are you doing, brother? It's a bad tag. They're great. Shout out Garden Salsa. They were Garden Salsa. I even looked at him. I said Dylan would be loving this right now. And my son's looking at him.
Starting point is 01:04:20 He's like, I want a snack. I want a snack. So I'm like, all right, look over at Sally and Sally goes, just grab it, just grab one. Oh, you can't, you can't grab it from the cart. Dude, no. Oh my God. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:04:32 It was like I had like planted a bomb on the plane. I grab it really quick and I hand it to Fritz. I was trying to make it look like he leaned over and grabbed it, because I didn't want to be the guy doing it. But I was also like, whatever, like I'm a dad and he can hear my kid going wild right now Like they're not gonna yell at me. Oh, no. Oh, no. I got chastised publicly on this plane sir Do not touch the snacks
Starting point is 01:04:57 I'm I'm sorry, and I did the whole like do I put it do it don't mean to put it Oh, no, my son's got it open. What do I what do I do here? I was frozen. Oh, man. The sir like everyone like it was like I was like running to the front of the plane with a knife in my hand The way that he like stopped me in my tracks. If Mark Wahlberg had been there those those chips would still be on that cart Yeah, we're going down differently You can't you can't touch the car. You just can't. I didn't know that they had that much of a...
Starting point is 01:05:31 Like they run that tight of a ship. And I kind of blamed it on his grumpiness. It's free. It's a free chip. So here's where it started to get a little awkward. So after this all happens, and I am so rattled at this point that I'm like, I don't even want to look at anybody because I'm like scared. I'm worried that they're going to like bland the plane and deplane everyone. People will cross over like, that's the guy that just got poured out by the flight attendant.
Starting point is 01:05:57 That's the guy who can't afford food for his kids so he's stealing it from the flight attendant. What's this guy's fucking problem? And then so the nicer flight attendant comes up and she goes, she looks at my son, she goes, you want any snacks? She goes, oh, I see you already have some sun chips. And I'm like, oh, don't even bring up the sun chips lady. And she goes, do you want some more? And I joked and I was like, is he allowed to have some more?
Starting point is 01:06:18 Shouldn't have done it, shouldn't have done it. And she goes, yeah, we're not gonna bite his hand. And I said, I don't know what came over you, but I said, well, the guy back there might. And she looked and she started laughing. And I was like, okay, he's clearly in a bad enough mood that she knows he's in a bad mood. Flight attendant comes forward,
Starting point is 01:06:35 she gives Fritz not one, but two pairs of wings, please. And then she clearly went to the first class snacks and got a bunch of first class snacks and gave them to Fritz who didn't care. He just wanted sun chips. You got the snacks though. But I was like, dude, I just, I think I just poured this guy out.
Starting point is 01:06:55 But I will say the Delta flight attendant that was nice about it was like, she knew the situation and she remedied everything. She made me feel more at ease that I wasn't like hijacking the plane. Don't touch the fucking snacks. Man, he took some liberties.
Starting point is 01:07:10 But like I saw a lady a couple flights ago order a full sprite on a Southwest flight where they don't give you the full can. Okay. She ordered the full sprite and when they gave it to her, she said don't crack it and then she just dumped it in her bag and I'm like, I feel like, I I feel like she's taking the sprite for the road. Yeah, she took it for the road. And I was like, I feel like me taking something off the snack cart's less egregious than her just
Starting point is 01:07:34 asking for a can of Sprite and putting it in her bag. Yeah, something about that feels dirty. This is weird. I'm a Southwest boy. So when we were on the American for those lights, and they gave me the full can of JAR rail, I was like, what am I supposed to do with all this? You had four more ounces.
Starting point is 01:07:50 Like, I don't know, I was pretty sure. It's like, wait, I have to keep pouring this into my cup? And what am I supposed to do here? Yeah, you didn't need that. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like that's their domain. And like, you gotta wait.
Starting point is 01:08:04 Otherwise, they're gonna be taking, taking those robots gonna be taking their jobs They're gonna have a cart that just self propels and you just grab whatever you want off of it I like the idea of will like vacation will Just mixing like grabbing the stuff and just mixing up a bloody without permission and they like look over and wills just got like A big old piece of celery in there. Yeah, stuff in my own blue cheese olives. Yeah, he's going crazy. Random slice of pizza on there for some reason.
Starting point is 01:08:30 No one's asking for it, but they're doing it anyway. There's not a chance in hell I will ever touch the refreshment cart ever again. It's just simply not happening. You can't. No, I didn't realize how strict that was. It's almost as strict as people standing up on the planelands, which I've heard has gotten
Starting point is 01:08:44 pretty contentious on this podcast lately. You just... some people do it. It's just a leg stretch play for some. Okay, so... okay. I'll explain why I'm bringing this up. On the listener voicemail episode from last week on Patreon, patreon.com slash circlingback podcast, there was a conversation that it seemed to get a little heated regarding standing up on the plane. We had Dylan who was playing the part of the person who does stand up when the plane lands. And we had Randy and Dave
Starting point is 01:09:17 playing the part of people who don't stand up on the plane lands. Am I crazy? Have we not been doing this show long enough? In like, talked airplane etiquette at least five different segments? How did we never know that? Or did we just not argue? Here's the thing.
Starting point is 01:09:31 I didn't speak much on this before the episode. I stand up. You're standing. I don't stand up every time. I don't stand up every time, but there are times when I stand up and here is why. Sometimes you just gotta get the real estate. Cause if you don't get the real estate, someone else is getting the real estate and you don't know who that person could be.
Starting point is 01:09:54 I know that I'm an efficient traveler. Sometimes if I can see like an old, like an old lady next to me who might be like, in the third seat next to the window, I'm like, you know what? I don't think it's gonna make much of a difference if it takes her a couple more minutes to get off this plane and she sits there. I think I'm going to stand up and get off this plane way faster than her.
Starting point is 01:10:13 It's not a nice guy move, but I understand the stand up. Wow. Here's what I don't understand. He's conceding that it's a, um, advantageous play. You're doing it for getting out of there. I want to get out of there, but I'm never going to be the person that races up. Maybe it is a leg stretch play.
Starting point is 01:10:31 Oh, see now he's thinking it through. What's the actual harm? Is it just the taking up space that you, I mean, just waiting your turn, just general decency? For me, the biggest thing is that like, not everyone can stand up. If everyone could stand up, then yeah, fine. But like, it's the crotch and butt
Starting point is 01:10:50 in the people's faces that can't stand up. Here's how my ideal situation happens. You have one aisle person stand up. That allows the other two people to have a little more room to get their stuff together. Maybe pull their backpack out from underneath the seat, get their stuff, get it all together, whatever. This is the ideal situation.
Starting point is 01:11:12 And then everyone's happy. Everyone gets out easily. You get your suitcase down from the overhead compartment. I don't know. I don't really care either way. When I see it now, I don't really care. I think it just makes people uncomfortable because you know when they stand up, you've got at least five more minutes,
Starting point is 01:11:28 at least five more minutes on this plane. And when that happens, it's just kind of, it's borderline chaotic. It gets crowded. It's almost like you just need, it's like you need, you almost need the people to start deplaning before you can actually stand up.
Starting point is 01:11:46 Like once they open the cabin door and everyone starts actually leaving, maybe that's like the opportune time. Yeah, I would not argue with that. That's because people are standing up and going. There's also a sense of like shared anxiety because anxiousness really like people try, they're standing up and you can tell everybody's like facing the front and they're ready to get off. Yeah, you know, you're not going anywhere for the next five minutes at least right? Yeah. So it's just like you kind
Starting point is 01:12:12 of get this weird energy of just like, I don't know. I don't do it every time killer. I don't do it every time. And I won't do it. If it puts out that aggressive energy of like, no, like I need like, I'm getting up because I need to stand up and be right here. I don't need to be that guy, but I will deploy it in situations when I kind of just want to get on my way.
Starting point is 01:12:32 Kind of want to get off the plane, maybe run to my car. I feel like I'm not saying it's right. I feel like no matter what, I'm not getting off that plane quicker. I feel like there's always something that's going to hinder me, my ability to get out of there. Well, when we landed the other day, lightning had struck between when we had landed
Starting point is 01:12:49 and when our bags would make it to the baggage claim. And because lightning had struck so close to the airport, they had to shut everything down. And so I waited for 90 minutes to get my bags. Ooh. Sent Sally and the kids home in the car and took an Uber. Yeah, I think that was worth it. You can't keep the kids there for 90 minutes.
Starting point is 01:13:09 I told her, I was like, you need to get the hell out of here with these kids right now. I will take the bullets here. Sorry, it's not a good time to say that. Way to go, Will. Wow. Well, usually I say take the body shots
Starting point is 01:13:21 because I'm thinking of like a boxer just getting hit in the stomach and just taking them, you know? I thought you said you take the back shot. But then, then I started realizing when I say that in casual conversation to people who don't watch boxing, like Dave, do they think I'm talking about taking body shots? Like you're on Cancun on spring break.
Starting point is 01:13:36 Yeah, like I'm sucking Malibu out of Randy's navel. All right, I'll take the body shots, pour them up. All right. Yeah, I know. What would you say there? I'll take the, I'll take the body shots. Pour them up. All right. Yeah. I know. What would you say there? I'll take the, I'll take the heat. You can just say, I'll take the hit. Take the hit. Take the hit. I'll take the body shot. I said that to someone recently and I was like, no, I was just taking body shots, just like trying to endure. And then I was like, does that make sense?
Starting point is 01:14:05 I just pictured Will in like the original Jersey Shore season just ripping body shots with Sam and Ron. I just imagine you are the EDM crews just fucking getting wild. Did y'all see the situation at the Heirs Tour? No. The situation went to Heirs Tour in Italy, Milan. Oh, hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:23 He had a great caption with him and his girl. He just referred to them as the situations. No, that's good. The situations have made it to the Ares Tour. Yeah, I gotta say, you had a good caption. The sun rain thing, that was good. That was good. Sun rain, sun rain?
Starting point is 01:14:39 That was good. I hovered over that one for a minute. I didn't know whether or not that would make sense, but I had to go with it. Hey, can we play a couple video clips to close out today's episode? Yes Dave part of the reason I bring this up today is because I know this is a show that was near and dear to your heart Hey, dude Turn 35 yesterday. Does that make you feel old? Yeah
Starting point is 01:15:02 Damn really 35 came out in 1989. Oh my god. I was that young watching it. That's this is I just want to hear the theme song for nostalgia. Mel Rushmore Nickelodeon show. Get that theme song Randy. Dude, I'll never forget when Ted wanted to save money. He was trying to borrow money to buy a beat box. It's a little wild and a little sad. Dude, I watch I'm not a fan of the X. I watched this show. Oh, shut out.
Starting point is 01:15:31 I forgot. Grab the girl. This is good. So is this like Yellowstone? No, no, Randy. No, Christine Taylor. Still rejects. Are they done? Oh, yeah, buddy, buddy was always mad because there's no sidewalks skateboarding dude I get it Hey, dude. God, what a great show. They don't make them like this, dude
Starting point is 01:16:03 I don't want to be old man yelling at cloud, but like they truly don't make them like this anymore. There's nothing like this that our sons are trying to watch. I was born in 87 and by the time I started watching this, I was probably four or five years old. Like, I don't think there's anything that I can just send my son's way that's Hey Dude level. Nothing salute your shorts level. No, man.
Starting point is 01:16:22 There was a time where it was, Hey dude, salute your shorts and maybe you sprinkle in some Eureka's castle or something. Dude. I. No, man. There was a time where it was, hey dude, salute your shorts and maybe sprinkle in some Eureka's Castle or something. Dude. I was rocking, dude. David the gnome. What? I know, I know, I know, I know.
Starting point is 01:16:33 Sorry. Look, hey, hey man. Randy, I don't understand. I understand your TikToks now or your videos now. I didn't understand them for a little bit, but I respect the grind. Thank you. I respect the grind. I still have one more that I need to edit and then I actually filmed one in Walmart recently that I'm going to put out. So I need to get the other one finished though. Grind don't stop. Dude, he's just, he's such a real guy.
Starting point is 01:16:58 Man, he always drops them. He drops them like the last five minutes of every pod. It's a good call. Perfect. It's not a bad call. I usually try to go noon. I think that's one of the good posting time is. He's figured out the algorithm. Trying to. The algorithms figuring you out.
Starting point is 01:17:14 Yeah, dude. That's the sad truth, man. Let's close it out with some Alec Baldwin. Yeah, can we see the Alec Baldwin clip? This week in Alec Baldwin. Yeah. This is a, first of of all I gotta say the glasses and uh partial slick back are really working for
Starting point is 01:17:30 Alan. Yeah, I don't hate what he's doing. Um I felt bad for him throughout this cuz I don't I don't think he intended to kill anybody. I can't speak to the actual thoughts on the trial but yeah, I didn't follow it too closely. I'm honestly shocked that it even went to trial. Um but yeah, I didn't follow it too closely. I'm honestly shocked that it even went to trial. But yeah, it got dismissed, but not without this. And this, if you haven't seen the video, you really got to see the court TV video.
Starting point is 01:17:54 It's making the rounds. You can always watch this shows up on YouTube if they're watching it, right? Yeah. Yeah. Just hit play. It's him. It's just the cameras on him and they're, they're, they've got somebody, a witness on the stand or something
Starting point is 01:18:07 Uh, yes, this is so good. I really appreciated Uh the acting that he did on Saturday Night Live and I really appreciate his politics Um, you told one of the witnesses who disagreed with you during an interview that you thought. Mr. Baldwin was a cocksucker Do you know what I'm saying? That this lady doesn't look like someone that would call someone a cocksucker. That's a thing. That woman doesn't say that. Like she sounds like she's like she's complimenting his acting on Saturday. Live loves his politics.
Starting point is 01:18:38 And I love I love his total cocksucker. Yeah, but I got the guy. Dude, the way his head. You know, it's like the guy dude the fucking guy his head. It's like the last thing it's the safari flaps like it's all over again. What the best thing too is like he doesn't even budge from like all like the glazing like oh great on SNL gray politics doesn't even phase him not even he's like whatever heard this a million times. Here's that and it's like wait a minute If you're going to jump out of his seat, they've you're a man of the law. Sure. If you had that, if you had that ready to go on a piece of paper in front of you
Starting point is 01:19:10 while cross examining someone, are you excited to say the word cocksucker in court? Yeah. Are you figuring out a way to say cocksucker in court in front of Alec Baldwin? Yeah, you have to. But you have to. The way he delivered it, he knew this was going to send a shock through the courtroom. And her face, she's like, wait a minute, that just doesn't sound like something I would say. I've always wanted to be cross-examined for something. But even though I know that if I was being cross-examined for something, something's gone wrong. I've thought it'd be fun, but I also
Starting point is 01:19:43 know that they would catch me a million different ways. It would just be like, you said this, sir. And I'd be like, yeah, I did. I did maybe say that. If that's you, you're like, okay, wait a minute. I was just kind of gassing up my homie at the time. I just wanted, I don't know. I was with the boys. Busting balls? It's like movie night on Love Island and they just show up what everyone's doing on Casa Amor. It's like, yeah, I don't know. Like the boys were buzzing.
Starting point is 01:20:07 It's like, uh, didn't, didn't think that one was going to get out. Didn't, didn't think so, even though there's cameras in every room, even though they have cameras pointing at the beds all night. That's a, that's, that's phenomenal. Like I've watched that clip a number of times. I was her face, like where she's like, she's so rattled. The gratification of this clip is that when I first saw it the first time, I thought it was going to be just him finding out that they were declaring a mistrial and he was
Starting point is 01:20:35 crying because he was happy. And I was like, well, I've already seen that. I don't need to see it. But I decided to play it once and I was like, oh, this is a totally different clip. And this is great. Is there a clip of his wife who makes a, who does a fake Spanish accent and has been doing it for years? No, I did not see that. Is this like the Paris Hilton clip when she goes into deep voice?
Starting point is 01:20:55 Dude. Randy, you know what I'm talking about? I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what you're talking about. Hold on. We're not gonna, we don't have to pull it out. Who's he married to? Dude, she does a cooking thing. Hilaria Baldwin. She has an inexplicable Spanish accent. And then it came out like she's not, I don't know if she's
Starting point is 01:21:19 from, has Spanish descent, whatever. The accent is very, very fake. Maybe she just comes out when she's drunk and she wasn't drunk in that moment. It's amazing. So just go watch it and have fun and go watch that video. It's absolutely worth it. By the way, this woman looks like the actress on SNL who plays Hillary Clinton on SNL. Just had to point that out too. I just got hill dog hair. It's probably good SNL is not had to point that out too. I just got a hill dog hair. It's probably good SNL's not in season right now, right?
Starting point is 01:21:48 Oh my God. Yeah. You think they would've whips, I mean that was Saturday, right? Yeah. That would've been interesting. That was Saturday, right? I like that the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards
Starting point is 01:22:03 where I just saw the quote tweet of think they're gonna address it Nickelodeon sucks right now. I've been talking nostalgia TV with Sally. I haven't brought up Eureka's castle to the other day I was like, but it's weird looking back now and all the Nickelodeon stuff now that the documentaries come out and just being like I refuse to watch it. I refuse I will acknowledge the the stuff. I've seen enough. I refuse to watch I know who the bad actors are. I Just don't need to I don't need to watch it. It'll be too emotional I'm I don't know what I don't know if there's any bad things that happened during our era Because all the things in that documentary are kind of like right after you and I had phased out of Nickelodeon
Starting point is 01:22:41 I would say mr. Ernst got like me too back then they covered it up. That'd be tough I'll be real tough be tough, dude Pete and Pete Pete and Pete is a show that will never be replicated for kids. They're never gonna make a show that weird for kids That's what dude Randy you were you in on Pete and Pete. That's a Randy show Yeah, every show that you guys have mentioned you would have been no had you been born the same time as us You would have been in on Pete and Pete. It was quirky. It was weird. It was good Go to theme song.
Starting point is 01:23:05 Really good. Always wanted a tattoo on my arm of her. Yeah. Oh yeah. For my birthday one year, my buddy gave me one of the red hats that Pete always wore. It was about a size too small. Okay. And so I just absolutely forced it for about three months.
Starting point is 01:23:23 That's all right. Yeah. You had to do it. The only way that it fit well is if you took the ear flaps down. You couldn't be ear flap guy. Yeah, you couldn't. You could. You've been to Northern Michigan. It plays. Yeah, not in school. That's fair. Should we get the hell out of here? Bye. Bye!
