I'm like, what? And of course, it's this blanket. And now everybody, it's everywhere. They've got like the best mark. We're talking about it on the pod.
Starting point is 00:09:01 We're giving them all this free pub. Yeah, I, there's multiple influencers that are like, have their codes and stuff. And I said to Brett, I'm like, hey, maybe you reach out and we can do a deal with them. Like, oh, you mean the viral sensation? I'm like, they have influencers, like, currently, like, advertising for them. Why don't we get a part of the fucking bag? You, Brett, you know what, Randy? I like what you're thinking.
Starting point is 00:09:22 You got something, kid. Maybe Randy should develop this. He completely, like, wrote me off. Like, that was a stupid idea. Like, oh, not like there's other people fucking. It's worth an email. Yeah. Worst they can say is no.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Should we bring bread in and just be like, what's up with that? Hey, how about you develop some business? Why'd you, uh... He comes in here and tells me when we do a cold opens and I can't tell him how to sell a ad. Yeah. Dude, Randy's just... Randy's coming for Brett's fucking note.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Damn. I wonder what Brett can hear. I wonder if he knows he's out there getting cooked for real. Brought the spice back from Mexico. I love it. She. Randy, I did want to give you a personal shout out. I try to get on recording, but kids are bitches sometimes.
Starting point is 00:10:08 I showed you your story to my kids who are, I won't say obsessed, but Coco's probably top five in their Disney, uh, their Disney Hall of Fame. And so they enjoyed all of your day of the dead preparation. Uh, we've, we had a few sugar skulls around the house.
Starting point is 00:10:23 It's not like we celebrated. It's just something they're aware of. Um, so for them to see you in Mexico while like day of the dead preparation was going on. It was big for him. So shouts to Randy for absolute a or what do you call it? What the kids say S to your content? Dubs in the chat.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Well, thank you. Shout out to your kids. I'm glad they enjoyed it. Bro, cook for real. He's really like that. It's like that. While we're on the topic, y'all mind if I do what I do best
Starting point is 00:10:51 and over talk for a moment really quick to tell you what happened to me on Halloween. Well, real quick, can I tell you what I'm drinking in my cup? Man, hold up. Oh, please do. It's, I don't know why I did that. Stone Creek coffee.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Cold brew, actually. I appreciate it. Damn. Jet Black. The box is right there. It's a visual show. I should have poured me up a cup of that. K.J. Why didn't you? What are you doing? I forgot it was in there. I'm a, I'm a freaking dumbass. Fumble week rolls on. KJ. The Stone Creek. Pause. Why did we just segue from the Jet Black straight to screaming my name? What happened there? This seems like a delicious cold brew. Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:11:31 You don't live very far from where Stone Creek applies its craft out Milwaukee way. I thought that looked familiar, especially the bag on the refrigerator. I see this everywhere. Are these related, correct? These are all the same brand or my self-off base, correct? Yeah, you could say they're the same brand. We only drink one, dude. We're to Stone Creek Coffee Company.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Yeah, they've got the, they've got their, uh, their HQ out in Milwaukee. It's very cool. You can go do a tasting. I bet they would love to host you. I'll roll through. You just leave wired. Yeah. You know, I'll, uh, I'll send bread and I'll send you all a message because, I mean, that is
Starting point is 00:12:11 It's about an hour or so from the house. That is not a big deal. And the lady who lives upstairs would love to see it. Let's go, dude. Do it. Maybe we'll come up there. Let me tell you this, though. The cold brew, great.
Starting point is 00:12:25 The hot stuff, great. And you know why? Because they control their variables, unlike some people sitting in this room right now. Little uncontrolled variable boy, Dylan Shivry over here on straight up onk status. Doesn't know what pour over is. Controlled variables. That's you, dude. Yeah.

They're good people, friends of the show, check it out. I want to hear what happened to KJ on Halloween. All right, fellas.
Starting point is 00:13:53 Well, as I've already mentioned, I have two young children, beautiful kids, wonderful children up here in the Madison, Wisconsin area. Live in a neighborhood like most of the Halloween is pretty dope. I cannot fathom or understand or. compare um the austin experience that i observed on many stories uh the cord the full blown block party situation with just droves of people walking down the sidewalk that's insane yep looked like an absolute sitch um but i want to make sure that i i frame this properly and that i don't leave this with any adversarial so i'm going to preface this quick story by saying uh dylan was
Starting point is 00:14:39 definitely right about, let's see, hold on, I had this the other day. Oh, UT's offensive line being suss, and I don't mean that negatively. He called this before the season. That was his one concern. It's been, you know, full-blown vetted, and I think they're solid even in spite of that. There was something else out of my Dylan was right list. We'll get back to it. Now, the reason I'm calling out good things for Dylan, because I loved his Michael Myers outfit I would probably say Dylan's approach to wearing the Michael Myers
Starting point is 00:15:12 Michael Myers outfit in that scene is like milk toast compared to what my neighbor pulled in our quiet little neighborhood. So we already made plans. No, no, no. This is not shitting on Dylan. I just wanted to make sure he didn't think of me saying like,
Starting point is 00:15:29 hey, grownups don't dress up and scare kids during Halloween because that's not what I'm going for here. We made plans with our neighbors who have kids the same age, three and five years old, another family from around the way, similar age kids, neighbors, a couple houses down, similar age kids. So there's a group of about eight to nine kids, five adults, waiting on the sixth adult to get dressed and come out. Sixth adult had been on a ladder, three stories up, dealing with his gutters, up until
Starting point is 00:16:03 about two minutes before it's like showtime. So kids are antsy. Everybody's dressed. Everybody's ready. We're all like waiting for the door to pop open for Homeboy to walk out. And I shared with Randy a photo that's not the exact costume. It's probably a notch or two below the absolute level of like gore and like sheer terror that this guy walks out. What the fuck is that?
Starting point is 00:16:29 None of the other parents are dressed up. And this dad walks out. in a full body suit face fully covered not like hey face out show the kids like i'm not that scary it was like a skinless zombie and i can't find the actual body suit what a skinless zombie just just shows but in this this mode basically oh my god okay um in what was the walkout like was everybody like oh okay damn i i basically looked looked way and i was like yep that's a lot and just started walking took one of my kids and started walking um one of his kids is like three but like knows the thriller song and dance has talked to me about the walking
Starting point is 00:17:20 dad uh so like i know this is something they're chill with and obviously i you know i'm i'm a fan of the walking dead it's not like i'm anybody to sit here and say this is wrong but naturally you think my three-year-old daughter took this well oh man absolutely not it's like daytime still big story here he fucking just drops a bomb on all these parents and like makes all these kids go from like excited for trick-or-treating to like what the fuck i'm just like expects everybody to keep walking along i'm happy you found somebody to talk walking dead with finally just me yeah usually just randy
Starting point is 00:18:03 was it so was it like this was it like a a more suit thing 100 per it was 100% spandex or what do you call it body suit covering the head every part of his body fully covered was this question and it wasn't do we have a ronald reagan situation going on or do where are we seeing print
Starting point is 00:18:21 he's asking about the penis for some reason come on none of it the fuck no he like i mentioned before like he had been doing work on like the second story of his house gutters they were getting their roof replaced and he felt adamant that you needed to do some shit to his gutters before that happened so he was like in full jeans and long sleeve like thermal and just put this on over it so no ridge um and me as a grown adult who knew who was in this i couldn't look him in the face both out of like anger and out of like discomfort
Starting point is 00:18:57 was seeing it okay so like his kids think it's cool though like his kids are like yeah dad's the six-year-old i don't know which uh i don't know if dylan tweeted it somebody else may have mentioned it but uh will verify k-pop demon hunter costumes were everywhere i yes everywhere right so many that i that's how i kind of aim with clowns one in it one of adult an adult has a clown Halloween costume on it's hard for me to look at him in the face not that I'm like scared it's just like you're weirding me out it's off putting it is it's like you I know I know that who you are behind that makeup and that wig and the nose but I just don't want to look at you man makes me uncomfortable so did this guy come out like like all right
Starting point is 00:19:45 here I am I'm he just was like just started he just has not have that personality he is not that he does not have like like he's a very I don't want to say reclusive but a very quiet guy in general unless like you go talk to him and he will talk to you about the same story on years end and like the same like it's very obsessive about things so like I basically again took Camille my daughter and was like we're going to be a house ahead we have a big group we'll put them at the back of the herd and then we'll just keep going did he get any compliments I wouldn't around to hear him if so now so fast forward about four or five houses in and I'm like thinking through like okay I can't sit here and like
Starting point is 00:20:31 deal with this like what you know I'm not by my son or my wife or the group like I'm being very physically avoidant to the group it's very clear like I'm wearing this about as well as like I imagine Dylan what if he was upset about something like there was no question that I was not thrilled and it was like very weird probably the people that I'm going up to trick or treat with because, again, I'm in front of everybody. Here's angry black guy carrying around a three-year-old who can clearly walk, dropping her off, be like, go get candy. And she's, like, timidly going up and getting candy and looking over her shoulder the whole time.
Starting point is 00:21:06 So it just was a headache. And so he comes up and he's like, is Camille not liking it? And I'm like, no, man, it's way too much. You said that? He's like, oh, no, no, no. Like, and he tries, like, lean in. Like, oh, no, it's me. It's me and, like, takes off masks.
Starting point is 00:21:20 And, like, she chills. She didn't, like, start screaming or crying. She's like, oh, yeah, yeah. She did calm down when he did that. But I'm like, I don't know, dude. Like, how about you just do that to start with? Okay. Or just not wear it because nobody else was wearing it.
Starting point is 00:21:34 No adults were wearing anything. Hey, man, you went a little hard on Halloween. So I'm going to applaud him for, he had a real opportunity to, you know, since he was working on the gutters on a big ladder, he could have, like, done the bit where, like, the ladder falls. And he fakes his death and then comes out in the costume. because that thought might have been like if I were him I would have at least thought like hey what if I like make this like a whole event where like I don't know that's just something I would have thought of but I'm glad he didn't do that um our scene in Austin though like because I didn't think we were doing costumes and like Alyssa's like ordered her costume came in like the day prior and I was like wait we're wearing stuff and she's like yeah she's like me and the moms are and I go. okay is and i was like is clay wearing anything she's like i don't know if i don't think clay is i was like all right what about cody and i'm like naming these other dads and she's like oh i'm sure
Starting point is 00:22:31 cody'll dress up i'm like okay so like i don't i'm gonna probably dress up whatever and i had the farmer costume from spooky season and i was like you know what it's a little bit more fun to go is uh nicky the knife i think i think i found it or i found one like it rainy i sent it to you it's called the zombie skin suit um and it's it looks like a pull up the image point being kj that i would say 60% of the parents dressed up on hours oh that's is that it i'm gonna show them oh writ right you can't see it yet kj not yet but now he can that's about it it wasn't it didn't have the green aspect or like the guts out but that's essentially the image yeah it just was all it was all red and white so like it wasn't as multi-colored but it was that but all red and white it was
Starting point is 00:23:24 it was tough man it was very tough to like oh like you said it just you know better but you couldn't tune it out so that was Halloween again they smoothed it over and even last year when we weren't having thank you way too graphic uh you're going to get this video sensor get that off the screen You get us dead. I was looking at guts right now. The bile duct. Even last year, like, we kind of all walked as a group and then eventually kids want to go to different houses, like broke apart and then rallied afterwards. So that happened again naturally.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Fast forward. So what was Halloween Friday? Saturday happens. Sunday, I get a text and hadn't seen them yet. Hadn't been, like, smooth this over. And I'd been just going through. my head like, man, this is just why, it was just so out of fucking pocket. And meanwhile, my wife had told the kids, like, it was an inappropriate costume. And so anytime it came up, my kids were
Starting point is 00:24:22 like, it was inappropriate. It was inappropriate. So I'm like, you're going to, I know that my kids are going to go tell his kids, like, that it was an inappropriate costume. And like, it's going to turn to some shit. But anyways, I get a text from him. And his mailbox had been fucking smashed and was like on the ground and I'm like I'm at Costco like damn and I'd tell and call I'm like hey can you check our front door camera real quick see if our mailbox is okay ours was okay and of course the first thing I do when I get back like I drive every other house to see if anybody else's was fucked up nobody else's was fucked up it was just the skil of zombie guy I don't know I don't know he had like uh interaction with
Starting point is 00:25:07 like high school kids from a couple houses down like a year to two years ago. Okay. I need to know more about that. Like we have an alley behind us and he gets weirdly like possessive thinking like it's his domain or our domain that people live like in this block of four houses to like nobody else should go back there. And this house lives similarly like connected to it. But their kids will use it for like playing 5,000 or jackpot jackpot is probably the
Starting point is 00:25:37 most people call it but with lacrosse balls and lacrosse nets it looks kind of fucking dope right like can you imagine doing that with lacrosse sticks no it's like playing yeah that sounds cool that sounds cool they'll do that shit and it's like a hundred 200 yards and tall shit and it doesn't hurt anybody's house over and hit but it's just kids playing back there so i guess at some point in time he got into it with them he called the cops or somebody did but this was years ago so fast forward again to sunday and that happened and i'm like there's there's kj making sure he has his scapegoats for i'm like please cops don't come don't don't come ask me because all that it was going through my head is i'm like if something like
Starting point is 00:26:18 traumatic happened or terrible happened and the cops came to you and like oh hey it's this neighbor or this happened most people would be like oh no my gosh wouldn't would never imagined i don't think there's a person who especially after skin suit night is going to say that about him so i'm just like i see the mailbox i'm like oh shit i hope this doesn't keep fucking snowballing um you know what i'm gonna throw out an alternative theory i think he uh what if he smashed his own mailbox to kind of get the narrative away from you wore a skin suit to dude you're the victim of a of a crime somebody destroyed your your property dude i forgot all about zombie skin suit that ruined Halloween just i've just i haven't seen him in person yet i'm
Starting point is 00:27:04 glad they got their roof replaced yesterday because my focus my conversations only be like man that roof looks great and i'm just going to fucking bury it at this point because i don't want to be the person on the wrong side of that traumatic story go ahead and if ever something happens you all know it's it's it's skin suit guy next time i can't wait to find out if he's going to try to run something back next year like you know he's going to have a real moment where he's like you know i'm I'm now a skin suit guy. I got a I still got to stick with a costume, but I got to go a little bit of a different direction.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Or does he double down? Yeah. Is he like fake blood it all up? Get it real gory. Like what do you think about this? Like I would have thought I would have been okay with him being like, okay, the kids are going to go out and trick or treat.
Starting point is 00:27:51 And you know some people are just into it. And he wants to do that as the person scaring people who are coming to get candy. Like, yeah. I feel like we grew up and there were those, those families or those people around the neighborhood who were like real fucking rocked up on scaring some kids. Halloween heads. And go get candy and like, yeah, like they were all in for it. I feel like that's the move if you want to be that person.
Starting point is 00:28:14 That is a, there's at least, I would say three or four on our block that are that fit into that category. Because growing up, there was always one or two houses in like the entire part of our town that did that. And now it's a lot more. like because back in the day there's like there's a guy who dressed up in a scarecrow outfit and would sit in the bench in his front yard like not moving and like on some hay bales and like the candy bucket was up there and you would jump out at kids uh when they would get candy and that dude ruled that's a good that's a good bit it's a man that's harmless that's harmless fun right there but yeah this year like just noticing like there's guys who set up um their whole driveway they turn into like a fun house yeah yeah making it like a maze yeah man guys people go hard dude The garages and stuff, yeah. I kind of love it, honestly, but you got to read the room, and I can't imagine walking around. And granted, I'm probably like the weird guy in, like, my wife's Majan friend group.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Like, I'm probably the weird husband because I dress up as a character that nobody understood or they thought it was just what I wore to work that day. But I can't imagine wearing the gory skin suit when no other adult even, like, put on like a, like, none of the wives even put on like a cat, cat ears or like a little. You know what I mean? Like the give up costume? Nicole was like she brought from the basement. Like she has a green wig and like alien like.
Starting point is 00:29:39 Okay. I don't know. You know what I mean like a really weak costume thing she was going to put together. But she brought up like, yeah, whatever, I'll leave it. And what she did as what everyone would do is when the mom started arriving took the temperature, like looked around. Did anybody else have anything and she just left it. KJ, I got a scenario for you here. I don't want to put something because we're talking friendly family costumes here and clearly would you prefer if someone dressed up in this gory like skin suit thing at a family friendly friendly event or maybe if they brought in maybe like a breathalyzer costume where your penis was a breathalyzer which one do you think it's a little more inappropriate?
Starting point is 00:30:21 I think the gore one the kids don't get the breathalyzer to be fair. They probably could read the words blow me. But I didn't know it was a kid party. It was a day after Halloween. I didn't know. I thought it was more adults. I forgot about that one. I went home and changed. The costume rules, man. How far? I don't know this story and I don't want to drag you back through, but just so I understand how far, how long did it take you to like decide to go back and change? Like, did you enter the threshold of the house? Did you actually arrive? Yeah. I didn't realize upon approach. I party, KJ. I partied
Starting point is 00:31:01 and I like went in the backyard. I definitely had conversations with some parents who I didn't know. Hell yeah. I'm still friends with those people, to be fair. They didn't, they didn't, nobody mentioned it. I just, I was mentioning it to this. I was like, so this wasn't the move.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Yeah, Dave put a little hard this year. The bit, the point was it's such a it's such an over-the-top give-up, like, costume. That's why it sucked. How did I do that? That's funny. I don't know. Why would I do that when I could have just worn fableetics?
Starting point is 00:31:37 That's right. I wore it to the gym this morning. I wore it to the gym this morning as well. You want to know a true story? Our friend Bravo, who used to work at Grand X with us and was our fraternity brother. I saw him in a t-ball game as kids in our league. and I was wearing my Fabletics pants. He texted me yesterday.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Ask where I got the pants from. Fabletics. Yep. I sent him the link. Become a VIP member. Get 80% off, dude. Just do it. Dylan doesn't even need the copy.
Starting point is 00:32:07 He just knows it. That's how much he loves fabletics. The quality, man, it surprised me. They feel like they're kind of high-end active wear you pay like 200 bucks for, but like you're getting that level of quality at a fraction of the price. That makes the membership feel like it pays for itself. Like Dylan said, sign up as a new. VIP, get 80% off everything, and after that, the membership's about 60 bucks a month unless you
Starting point is 00:32:27 skip that month. The monthly fee gives you exclusive membership benefits, including a credit you can use toward a full outfit or bundle up to $100. On the first of every month, they send the email. You decide whether you want to purchase a member credit or skip the month. And the cool part is the member credit isn't just for me yet you can use it for, I don't know, something for your partner or even your friend. It's all, you know, they're a good, they're a good company. They do good things in the community. It's not just about good deals, eco-friendly things. Half of their fabrics are made from recycled materials. And the company has been a carbon neutral company since 2021, which I think is pretty good. Dylan, you're not carbon neutral. I try to be. You try,
Starting point is 00:33:06 but you're not. I'm not on Fabletics level. That's for sure. They sent me some chunky sweatpants pants that are about to get a lot of play when it gets cold out. Oh, yeah. Just around the crib, man, come on. Treat yourself to gear that looks good, feels good, and doesn't break the bank with Fabletics. That's go to fabletics.com slash steam and sign up as a VIP and get 80% off everything. That's fabletics.com slash steam. Sign up as a VIP. Get 80% off everything.
Starting point is 00:33:30 80%. It's a lot of percent. Fabletics.com slash steam. Before we move on, I want to do one last recap Halloween thing. I want to give a special shout out to a to a backer out there that he hit me up and he did some, he did Doug Dimidom. I want to just, you know, show the people there. what a guy
Starting point is 00:33:50 hell yeah dude the hat's got to go out of frame don't you know that when you take the picture come on dude so yeah but hunter shout out to you
Starting point is 00:33:59 that is a good demadome and he wants to do dimmedome not as tall as Randy's demadome hat what are them boots awes they're not no they're not west
Starting point is 00:34:08 no they're not west that's all right that's what is his girl uh that is uh jorgen von strangle he's uh he's like the Arnold Schwarzenegger uh
Starting point is 00:34:19 fairy of fairly odd parents. So also very good. Can I tell you a story? We had a Nickelodeon on yesterday and a Doug Dimmadome episode where he is a wrestling referee came on. That must be a new one. I don't remember that. And I was like, there's Doug Dimmadone.
Starting point is 00:34:36 What's the show? Fairly odd parents. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. So that came on in our house yesterday. And I was like, is it real estate mogul? Is that right?
Starting point is 00:34:45 He's, yeah, real estate billionaire tycoon. real estate tycoon and destroy your cherished childhood dreams like yours oh i thought he was a good hello no no he's everyone loves him but he's he's definitely like a billionaire we're gonna do something about it we're gonna start with dog demadome i thought you're going bill simmons on that oh no well well here's the thing dog dimmedome did build the dimmedome so he did pay for his own stadium there you that's why people like it as he should as he should we got to stop subsidizing billionaires to build stadiums but we'll only lose taxpayers
Starting point is 00:35:20 pay of money um hey here's a new segment what the fuck is this app is this the stephen a situation yeah what the fuck is this app what's going on randy are you following this kj
Starting point is 00:35:33 you following this uh yes i'm lightly familiar that it's not the everything app that we're speaking of that uh we're speaking out the one and only stepan a app Stephen a's got a solitaire app and apparently um
Starting point is 00:35:47 Apparently, remember that kid? Apparently, all of his, uh, his buds over to ESPN are promoting it for him. And it's, it's the corniest out of place shit I've ever seen. It's like 2016, um, promotional tweets like this start with hashtag ad. Yeah. And it's just a solitaire app. And okay, it's not, I guess it's not that big of a deal. It's just weird to see like a list ESPN personalities.
Starting point is 00:36:17 doing promoting a solitaire app did you know they hate doing this hashtag beat stephen is this a video of her playing oh i'm sure that's what you want to do and you get back you what else do you think she wants to do probably pour a glass of wine relax uh laura rutley we could probably get her on the show i didn't i don't know i need it not after those comments that's fair Take that, Stephen A. I mean, I barely even have time to play, and I beat you. You're playing all the time. Damn, just don't get on Stephen A.
Starting point is 00:36:58 I'm sorry. It's a screencase. We love, we love Laura Rutledge around here. Is she friends with Casey? She is friends with Casey, yeah. I apologize to get her on. Laura, you rock. You're welcome to come on the show whenever you want.
Starting point is 00:37:13 Yeah, I hate what they're doing. We don't need this. we love we hey you're welcome on the show we just hate what you're doing it's just weird it's just weird is questions about this it's 2016 is what is the perfect way to describe it like everything about that seem very words with friendsish and my brain goes two different directions like one we must not recognize how much money there is in bad apps and two I would almost be more comfortable
Starting point is 00:37:45 as Stephen A. Smith got on national television, made all his friends join in and was legitimately trying to get us to buy like Girl Scout cookies for his children. Like their specific troop, not national. Like it feels really like get your co-workers to sell candy bars for your kidsish,
Starting point is 00:38:03 but we're doing it with like millions of dollars of bloatware. It's just kind of strange. Isn't this guy like, isn't Stephen A like worth like $200 million? That's not what I know again. What's happening? It's called Solitaire Cash. Can you wager via the app? I think you can buy in
Starting point is 00:38:22 like it's whoever has the top score, whatever. But apparently this is all in promotion for the World Solitaire Championship. That's going to be, he's ambassador. I didn't know that there's a championship. Hey, how about you just get back on YouTube TV, all right? We don't need all this extra bullshit. It says he's only worth $16 million.
Starting point is 00:38:42 damn that seems low doesn't it i thought he got like the bag bag a couple years ago he didn't show up for a single one of those commercials shot you right randy yeah yeah if you're watching this at home like these are all ai okay so we've got ai commercials to get stephen a smith more monies yeah i don't know and all of the all the espn personalities are pushing the app i hope he's sliding them a little something he's they've got God, this isn't, this isn't just for, this isn't a friendly. Yeah, I got you, man. I'll promote your shit.
Starting point is 00:39:18 Do you remember, like, was it Clash of Clans? And it was like, didn't they have, like, I feel like they had like A-lister's promoting it. It was like, oh, yeah, it was Ben Affleck promoting Clash of Clash. Like, what? Yeah. Why? Clash of Clans is big, though. You're Ben Affleck.
Starting point is 00:39:33 You don't need to promote a phone game. I thought your town hall is probably like a level five, Dave. Remember when someone sniped him at a game, like a few weeks ago? playing solitaire on his phone when he's remember Stephen A? It was like last playoffs I think it's all making sense now I get I get the tie in like he seems like a natural spokesperson
Starting point is 00:39:52 but it's just like the AI thing really solidified it I'm out really weird I hate it I don't like it I don't like taking jobs away from commercial creators is he a midwife right there and they just like shot the baby out like a canon if you can do the
Starting point is 00:40:08 deflated belly one like I'm not pro uh pregnancy see trauma and TV and ads, but the deflated belly as if it was like a basketball deflating as the baby pops out is a lot. A lot. Dylan, I think you get the nail on the head. What the hell?
Starting point is 00:40:28 It's not how it works. It definitely makes me feel like everything was bullshit about the whole, oh, we caught Stephen A playing solitaire. And I wonder how many times he staged that or whoever tweeted that definitely not a real account. I hate it. Tinfoil hat theory.
Starting point is 00:40:50 What if all of this is just going back to Stephen A super pack, just getting ready for, ready for 2028, Stephen A for president. Or they're laundering money for foreign wars. What's the difference? Oh. Do you play solitaire? That's it. I was
Starting point is 00:41:12 Mahjong wasn't the What's going on? The real Trojan horse It's Solitaire now Huh? Solitaire. I was never a solitaire kid. So ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Solitaire is lame, dude. Tonight, people are winning money on Solitaire. Is it you? Is it your wife? It's not me. Got to leave the Tucker to the pros. It is fun to do around the office, though. Way too many times our office just
Starting point is 00:41:41 all just turns any conversation into just a Tucker questioning. It's it really does. It always gets mixed with who is the guy that did. What's going on? Ryan Windhorse. It's a mix between the two of them. Yeah. Why is this?
Starting point is 00:41:58 Why is that? Why is that? Are they moving the team? Buffets are done. KJ, I've got to get you in some poncho. he's on it in poncho yet i don't think he's on that poncho which okay like i'm looking at what he's wearing right now and i just can't imagine how good he would look in his poncho flannel their whole fall line is it's very good dude it's high quality stuff dude it is
Starting point is 00:42:29 i'm trying to find the one i wore the other day because it is so money is that the the stand hoodie he was wearing the sand hoodie yesterday i wore into a dinner party on Saturday and Oh, a dinner party with the prince. It was just with some friends. Yeah, just say dinner. Yeah. I was at a dinner party. Oh, because it was at someone's house.
Starting point is 00:42:54 If I say I was at dinner, that means I went out. Oh, brother, we have a crazy event happening, a dinner party. Bro. There'll be quite a many dames. This is an ad read. Quite a many dames? they they sent us like dude five years ago poncho sent us uh like the pearl snap button down i still wear the i still wear that i still kind of like that's the white one i had that's like my go-out
Starting point is 00:43:20 like it's kind of my statement one i could wear that at the ranch but i could wear it at dinner and too people are like damn well i can't find the exact one but it's it's the western uh longslee button down with pearl snaps yeah i know what you're talking about it's fucking dope they got the western polos now which are very dope as well um the tough thread which just launched it's their toughest fabric yet reinforced with ripstop technology you weren't ready for that ripstop peck the ventura ah the ventura i stepped out in that thing dude oh is that what people were saying when you walked out it's so dope what color say it's called sage brush what color is that green uh that is like a almost a mint no mint it's it's it's a light it's a pale green
Starting point is 00:44:05 it's a great color probably you probably look pretty decent in it i did Were you between wearing the sagebrush Western shirt and your gory skin suit? Yeah, I decided to go with the Ventura, and it turned heads big time. It's all backed by the Poncho promise. Free shipping and free returns, free exchanges to make sure you get the right fit. Poncho stands by every shirt, and they'll make it right if it's not your favorite. But here's a little insider info. It's probably going to be your favorite because everything they've sent me has been super dope.
Starting point is 00:44:32 Super dope. Everything. Gear for fall, poncho. Every piece is built for comfort, performance, and lasting style. go to poncho outdoors.com slash steam into your email for $10 off your first order that's P-O-N-C-H-O-Outdoors.com slash steam for $10 off plus free shipping and hey tell I'm circling back sent you okay all right slate we feeling slaty everybody's feeling we got to get a slaty theme song yeah I haven't you done that yet Randy what have you been doing Mexico
Starting point is 00:45:08 okay kj have you checked out the slate oh as he sipses oh yes i have i have um it's it's one thing i wanted to acknowledge is it's just two fans of teams that knocked off top 10 teams last week so looking at this week it's kind of like everything's a little bit of a come down uh but i don't know if you folks you boys saw the uh the campsites outside of uh jones AT&T stadium over there in Lubbock. I did. I did. I did.
Starting point is 00:45:43 They're excited for the Mormons come in. I think Joseph Smith's coming back. You got a big matchup going down in Lubbock at 11 a.m. Can you explain to me how the student tickets work there? Why is this happening on like a Monday? In this decade, I don't know. But I do know in the past it was a essentially you swipe your ID and you get in. I imagine it's similar, but maybe they have what most places have is like you've got to pay the sports fee.
Starting point is 00:46:12 But your seat essentially is first come first serve. So they'll do these tents. A big part of this whole bit also is that people aren't in the tents all fucking day and all night. Like you've got to have somebody present and like there. But it is definitely you send your pledges or your freshmen to go camp in the tents. And it's their party. then you show up and, you know, you show up with the booze and the tailgate. So this is for tickets?
Starting point is 00:46:42 Yeah. Okay. This is to get into the stadium first and then also to be in prime position for a tailgate, which will take place in that parking lot to the right. Gotcha. Because I didn't see any tents, but when I went for game day last year as Dimmodome, like there were kids that camped out all night to get a good position for game day. So that's a new, that's a new Delcani thing.
Starting point is 00:47:02 It used to be not like that. but now it's like whoever he gets there first you know they'd run up and claim their seats when the gates open yeah gotcha which it's it's best to do it that way i think yeah i do too i like it yeah that's the game b yu tech b yu tech is is a big one um isn't that ridiculous you would say that on a ls u bama day yeah you're right i agree but isn't it just wild like everybody's clearly in agreement like what can i ask a ls u question so wait the president walk back the ad right is there i'm sorry i i just kind of tweeted that earlier okay so basically overnight um oh did they change his statement about let me let me let me um get caught up on
Starting point is 00:47:53 that but you'll me to let me set the table to everything up until this point yeah what else you yeah so they fire brian as far as lSU really quick to set to recap there they've obviously fire brian kelly but a big part of why this job quickly became known as undesirable is because they were already without a school president and without an athletic director following the governor who sounds like i don't know what the big chickens name is i can't think of it from uh looney tunes Longhorn. Whoa. Yes, Longhorn Foghorn.
Starting point is 00:48:28 It sounds a lot like him. Little close. Okay. He sounds a lot like him and basically talk shit about Scott Woodward. It's like I'm not letting, you know, that Mammie Jamma pick our next head coach. So no coach is going to go to a school without a president and an AD. And almost if overnight they announced the president and they announced their AD pick, like within six. days in the first press conference they say that they're removing the interim tag from the
Starting point is 00:49:01 current or maybe i've got like my roles wrong but whatever the current ad i don't know whatever if you got the story for the most the the current interim guys story i don't know osberry no interim no search full power to hire the head next head coach verd it's uh verge osberry he's the ad at ls okay it was very it's just been confusing and it feels like I don't really it just feels like they've botched this and it wasn't really their fault because you've got the governor applying pressure and just making it weird and I know I said it's four I'm like at the end of the day if LSU can pay these kids like big recruits are going to go there but if I'm like a between LSU and another school it's like this is weird right if they're paying attention to this it just seems like a potentially chaotic situation this stuff will they'll get settled in and LSU won't I mean, they're going to recruit just fine. They're going to still attract like a tier one head coach. It's still
Starting point is 00:50:02 LSU. It just affects their coaching pool, which is the only part that I think matters. Lincoln Riley? I really think it affected that much though? No, well, like, because this stuff like in two years and now you look back and this is going to be just so, just in the past.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Like, yeah, that was the thing we got past and now it were. But if you're, if you're you're a big name coach and you've got you could go you know to you got two or three jobs that are great jobs it's like man i don't know i don't really want the governor on my fucking governor of the state on my ass like that's just i don't know maybe it's maybe people aren't locked in doesn't matter but i'm it's just weird maybe just because i don't like that governor that goes on everywhere i think this just has been much more public i think they're yeah but then being this public about it doesn't go on everywhere yeah i
Starting point is 00:50:52 I think there's something to it for the coaches, and I think it ends there. I don't think a single player gives two shits. Like they will care if they're in that locker room right now, but you will not care if you're a recruit after the new coach has announced. All that goes out the window. If you get paid, it's, yeah, you get paid, you get paid. It's like, whatever. But that's fair. It's just been, it's been a really, really odd time.
Starting point is 00:51:18 And we were talking before a show about who's the dude who dropped that, who dropped. Just like, name to watch, Lincoln Riley. Not for LSU per se. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But for one of the open jobs, we're just like, wait, what? And then Dylan's like, is like, is Lincoln Riley a good coach? And, like, that is, like, the really fun game to play. I know, like, when he was in Lubbock, like, under Mike Leach, like, he was a great position coach.
Starting point is 00:51:41 And, like, all the players out there loved him. KJ. Well, his name is going to float it out for the, for the vacant LSU job, too, before Brian Kelly took it. It's like, is Lincoln Riley going to go to Lowe? he goes I promise you I'm not going to LSU and then he went to USC he didn't lie that's that's beautiful and took the timing of all of this sucks took his hyzman and quarterback with him he did take uh that was Caleb Williams right it was dude his time at
Starting point is 00:52:10 oh you is so forgotten wild it's bizarre you want a lot his win percentage is still insane when you go back and look at it like Caleb Williams though like I think I know it was very brief but it's just weird I'm like oh yeah Because he only started for like 80% of a season. Yeah, 70% of a season. It was very, just very, the other night I was like, he took Rattler's job during the Texas OU game and never gave it back. That's right.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Was he Jalen Hertz coach? Yes. Yeah, they're not weird to think of. Like, that's just so. It is weird. Crazy. Anyhow, anyhow, um, BYU, Tech.
Starting point is 00:52:45 I'm not like, and get a prediction here. I just do think it's insane that like, this is the marquey game. I will admit publicly that, like, I don't know how sold I am, and I've been a little bit bearish on, like, everybody is calling Texas Tech this new behemoth based on them beating Utah and on their recruiting. And this is coming from perspective, like, everybody was calling SMU this new behemoth based on winning the AAC and then going to the ACC title and getting, like, our heads stomped in. So, like, let's just all take a breather. Like, it looks legit. Their stats, their EPA on defense, like, everything looks great.
Starting point is 00:53:25 They've dominated this season. But if things fizzle out, like, what is this? If Indiana hadn't have done it two years in a row, like, would we be singing praise about what Indiana did last year? No. And, like, give it some time. That's all I'm saying. Yeah, I wish I had a better feel for BYU because I've not really watched much. BYU so i don't know i would not be shocked they walked into levin got buzz sawed uh they'll grind
Starting point is 00:53:55 it out uh b yu was SMU's only lost during the regular season last year not to bring it back to esmia but like that's why i'm like i've been somewhat aware and i watch them a little bit this year um their head coach is legit he is a fiery dude like he he he is uh he'll take some risks on fourth down um i don't know it's it's going to be a good game they've got a quarterback whose name is Bear and he wears like 47. He's a little bit thick and he's going to take on a lot of contact.
Starting point is 00:54:26 I don't know what it's going to be like. If this game was at night, I would take Texas Tech by 40. But being at 11 a.m., who knows? It's going to be strange. For like the fifth time this season, I'm going to say a Mississippi State game is interesting, Georgia, Mississippi State.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Just to see. Where is it? Where is that? game. Ooh, is that in? Startville. Yeah, start. Yeah. I'll ride with you there. I don't know. I feel like George is at the point where like you're an idiot to bet against them or to expect them not to win in the second half. But it just seems strange
Starting point is 00:55:08 that they continue to play like these weird close or overtime games. It's just how many times you're going to continue doing that? It just seems very narrative driven, but it's, it's a lot, man. It's weird. And if you're looking for a real upset alert, we're not. We got Purdue versus Ohio State. It's not. That's a, that's a one to watch.
Starting point is 00:55:31 It's at Purdue, though. That'll be an ass kicking of the highest. It's going to be bad. I'm going to be hopefully a whole bottle of me deep during that. So I will not be watching at all. He says, okay. Yeah, I think we will finish with two wins on the season because we got Ohio State, number one, Washington.
Starting point is 00:55:47 number 24 in Indiana, which is I think number two. Those are our next three games. So very cool. Very cool. It's basketball season, though, so who cares? Y'all started two and no, though. Yeah. Can't take that. You always have that.
Starting point is 00:56:05 To be two and seven, like, I want to go back and read those headlines after two and now. Anyways. Mizzou host an A&M with their bat with their freshman. Oh, because Watch McCulloch got hurt. This is one of those games where, okay,
Starting point is 00:56:23 if Bama runs away with this with their game against LSU at home, and if A&M stumps Mizzu out, these are going to be the times where I'm like pointing back to like, we were all screaming how deep this conference was and how good like this LSU win was. Like, this is kind of the weekend that will make me very frustrated because I feel like both of those are going to be blowouts. This season is setting up perfectly.
Starting point is 00:56:47 for Texas to spoil A&M season. They won't completely spoil it because they would have one loss. I think they're going to cruise until that last game. I think they have a 99% chance of making the playoff. Yeah, they could still lose. I mean, if they lost to Texas, they would easily get in, obviously. Fuck their seating, though. A little bit.
Starting point is 00:57:03 A little bit. A little bit, yeah. I mean, that means home game at Kyle Field probably wouldn't be the worst thing to experience unless you got put on the road on accident. But, yeah, the A&M Texas game, I think we talked about at the beginning, like, are mentally prepared for like going into that being a very very very competitive like an important game and it was exciting last year and techs a and m didn't really matter um but i think i'm with dylan like i mean it's what we got two weeks three weeks but i don't think it's texas says goes to
Starting point is 00:57:36 athens next week texas wins one of a and m in georgia i don't know which one lose one win one Oh, you're in Athens. And they're going to probably push that to a nighttime game. 6.30 kick. Oh, 7.30. I mean, Georgia Tech should have beat him at home at Athens at night last year. Like, I don't need, I'm like, I have no hesitation saying that. That should have kind of woulda.
Starting point is 00:58:00 That was a job for George Tech. So, like, Texas can do it. I think Sark, you know, gets ready for big games. Yeah, it does. How are we feeling about the current seating? Specifically, Notre Dame. Notre Dame seems... I don't think Notre Dame's is...
Starting point is 00:58:19 That's the one people are mad at, one of them. Yeah, I've seen a lot of the big Matt online about that. And it's a lot of it's based on people not respecting North Carolina State who has good ACC wins, which, you know, you look at the rest of the rankings and people think that's worth nothing. Sure, whatever. But like, I think beating USC is a legitimate win because I think USC should be like on people's radar for sneaking into the playoffs. I think beating North Carolina State is a considerable win. It's not like what you're in your hat on, but it's it's nothing to like be upset about.
Starting point is 00:58:52 And I do think that the means in which they lost to Texas A&M is is considerable. Like, you know, you what? They had a blocked extra point or how'd they miss that at one point? I don't remember. The kid just missed the extra point. My feeling. Then they tried. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:59:10 I was to say my feeling on it is we have four weeks left. So who gives a shit right now? It doesn't mean a ton at this point in the season. But there's teams that can afford a loss like A&M, and there's teams like Notre Dame, like they can't. And who they have, they have Navy, I think, is their tough game. But I'm kind of in my head now kind of making the comp between Notre Dame and Texas as far as two lost teams.
Starting point is 00:59:34 They're one loss. Both have a loss against a top three team, and it was a close game. A lot of the Texas chatter right now is why the hell did we schedule Ohio State? when that could have easily been a cupcake in Texas would have one loss at this point. I mean, I wouldn't they schedule that. But I would put that Ohio State loss like right next to the A&M,
Starting point is 00:59:53 Texas, where in Texas, I'm sorry, A&M Notre Dame one. Like it was a very close like week one competitive game that Texas just wasn't clicking that day. They didn't control the game. Ohio State made plays,
Starting point is 01:00:08 but they didn't get blown out. Texas D showed out big time in that game. Yeah. Yeah. They didn't look out of place. Weirdly might be their best defensive game. Like, Arch looked a little bit uncomfortable, but like, you know, I don't think that it, like, had that game happen last week at night, I don't think people would be shitting on Texas for that loss. No.
Starting point is 01:00:26 You know, like, I think people have been like, oh, man, we got this competitive clash. It's so great. But because it was the first thing people saw this season, I think that set the table. Like, had they blown out UTEP by 77 and then it was a 14-7 game the next week? I think people frame it differently. but you know it's what it is both of those teams are legit in my book um the frauds to watch for for me i think you've got to put oregon on that list right now i don't think utah deserves to be at fucking 13 off of one big win um and i do think that USC should be higher and anybody who beats
Starting point is 01:01:07 a team that beat notre dame probably should be you know in the conversation too Oregon's got Iowa this week. I think Iowa's a sneaky, sneaky, sneaky. I mean, nobody's going to say sneaky like the fact that they're, what, they're one lost team? They're not ranked. No, they're ranked. Are Iowa?
Starting point is 01:01:28 Yeah, I think they're like 22. No. What am I looking at? Not in college football playoff. I was not ranked. They're ranked on the coaches poll 24. Coach's poll. Two lost team.
Starting point is 01:01:40 um anyway that's a game that i can see you are going to have trouble and then yeah three point lost your rival out on the road on second week and then a five point loss indiana 20 to 15 i don't know man uh clearly i don't know shit who are you talking about i'm sorry about i'm talking about iowa oh yeah yeah yeah those are iowa's two losses and then like they play a big 10 schedule, but they get no fucking respect like anybody else does. So it's just strange to me, man. Dude, you can't, you can't, you can't, you can't hit a team for losing to Matt Campbell, you know, you know what I'm saying, Campbell?
Starting point is 01:02:22 Can we do our annual he should be fired conversation with Matt Campbell? He shouldn't be. He should be the coach. Matt Campbell's going to Penn State. He's going to happy valley. I'm just playing. I have no insider info. I'm just talking ish.
Starting point is 01:02:38 I'm just talking that ish. All right, let's do our weekends and fun. Bro, let's go out this weekend. There's a crazy event happening. I like to turn up. Bro, there's a crazy event happening. We had the party and it was lit. I got yelled out by a prostitute.

Heck yeah. Sleeping on a cloud, dude. They're comfy. From night one, you'll feel the difference. Premium materials that deliver serious comfort

Starting point is 01:04:46 got two big things on the list this weekend both incredibly mundane one heading to the barber so i'm not uh while i left my roback hat uh you got a lot of long curleys sticking out of here the side of that well overdue which um If you are in the upper Midwest and dark of skin, just going to the barber is not something that you can just fucking throw a rock and find as I experience when I live south in South Dallas. I can find a barber anywhere, everywhere. So getting to the barber here is more of an experience, more of an intentional effort. So head to the barbershop Saturday, following that up with getting these GD leaves off of my yard and mentally preparing to hear more of whatever the hell happened last week. for my neighbor as he probably will walk outside and chat me up about it.
Starting point is 01:05:36 So aside from that, watching the good old SMU Mustangs whip up on the Boston College Golden Eagles on Saturday and try to keep their real teeny tiny little CFP Pecker Hopes in play. Bill O'Brien Hot Seat. He's still at BC, right? It was a hire that I would have voted for 10 times out of 10. it doesn't seem to be making sense, but he doesn't want to hear any of that bullshit.
Starting point is 01:06:04 He's like yelling at the media level of like, nobody here's given up. They probably could have beat Notre Dame last week if Jeremiah Love wasn't like Heisman level crazy. Notre Dame had three different, three field goal kickers miss a kick. Like following up on why they lost Texanin'N. Like they are still searching for a kicker.
Starting point is 01:06:25 We've lost two games because kicker woes. Notre Dame, you know, at least lost one. Millions of dollars for college kickers, wild. Damn. Anyways, that's me. That's kind of crazy to have three kickers, three guys capable of kicking. If you have three kickers, you have three kickers. Travel them to Boston.
Starting point is 01:06:40 Exactly. Good point. Dylan. Yeah, thanks for asking, Dave. I got a, Parks has a baseball game. Well, actually, that's not even until Sunday. Saturday, we're going out to the ranch. I'm going to go see my mom.
Starting point is 01:06:56 She's been sick. We're going to go see her. spend the day but we got to get back because we got we have a playoff game sunday and uh the boys are just absolutely just mashing the ball right now and um looking good we got a first round by so that's big nice yeah that's it man it's gonna be a pretty low-key weekend for your boy parks has a birthday party to go to tomorrow i'll take him to that and then we'll probably step out chels and i probably step out get some pine house or something What are the kids his age do birthday parties?
Starting point is 01:07:29 I know there was a Blazer tag. Blazor tag's a big player. They go to, there's a place called, I forgot what it is. It's like a big, like, pandemonium kind of place. You ever go to that as a kid? I know about it, yeah. Yeah. We were Discovery Zone.
Starting point is 01:07:46 Yeah. It was a network of dudes. DZ shouts. But his friends, they're starting to turn 11. Uh-huh. I think 11, you skip birthday. party was like one through 10 yeah I get it like do we can't do this every year we'll do 13's a big one well wait we'll skip two years we'll do 13 okay oh you know I can get behind
Starting point is 01:08:10 I can't just do it every year for the end of time it might be the one where as on status yeah now that you say that like maybe those are the ones where it's like hey we got to take a couple these might be the last ones you can like own as a family and do something solo before like yeah we'll start right you but we're not going to into the whole party. Mine turned into just sleepovers with like 15 kids. That's the next phase for sure. We were just shooting Roman candles.
Starting point is 01:08:37 Just being little dickheads. Yeah, I mean, honestly, maybe toilet paper in her house or two. Breaking KJ's neighbors mailbox and stuff. Wearing our skin suits. I found something out. So I mentioned our friend Bravo. We were texting about the playoffs because their team lost as well. And we're talking about how, like, both of our teams, every inning, so there's four
Starting point is 01:09:02 innings technically, and we have positions already drawn out for each inning. Everybody plays a different position. Yeah. You don't have to do that. And the team we played, apparently, they don't. They switched. They went first, so they had like four kids, and they just rotated them. So their pitcher to first was dialed.
Starting point is 01:09:23 And we had a new pitcher every inning. We were mixing it up. And I was like, oh, damn, that's a little bit... That's just one of those unwritten rules in Little League Baseball, I think. Yeah, we were like, oh, okay, because I wasn't paying enough... Because, you know, the pitchers in our league have the mask. So I didn't notice. I just knew the kid was either good or wasn't, you know, can make the throw or can run it over.
Starting point is 01:09:45 And I was like, oh, that's kind of like, you guys really, really wanted to win. You guys weren't moving your players around. That's kind of sorry. Okay, dude. Cool, man. That's awesome for you all. At that level, that's kind of sorry. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:56 It is. These are four and five-year-olds, but whatever. Randall. Hi, Dave. It's well to be here. Next not. I am going to the Renfair tomorrow. Going to Texas Renfair, the one that's outside of Houston, Todd Mission.
Starting point is 01:10:13 It's going to be great camping weather. I mean, we got a high of 85, 84 during the day, it's low 60s, mid-60s at night. That's like perfect camping weather to me. Yeah, I love 85 to 3 day in November. yes geez uh is this the first without the king will there be any special festivities without uh and this the same renfair this is the first without the king king george uh passed away last uh earlier this year so last year was uh the last one with him and then like last year was the 50th and it was also the year that the uh the documentary came out so last year was packed
Starting point is 01:10:51 like it was a lot of fun but i felt like i was really tired during the whole time too but like It was so packed trying to get through the crowds, and we showed up Friday afternoon. Camping opens up Thursday afternoon, and we had to get one of the last campsites on Friday afternoon. So, like, the place is already packed. So I think tomorrow this weekend, it will not be as crowded. So that would be nice. I'll actually get to experience a little bit more of the fest. And now that I'm going again, be able to have some more time to look at shops and everything,
Starting point is 01:11:22 it was just kind of trying to drink in the whole time last year. but it's going to be fun going with dan dan's driving we're going we're leaving around two so i'm packing everything up tomorrow don't really we don't need to know who's driving yeah well dan's driving uh too much this is a big year for y'all this is a huge year for this is huge though yeah why is that because it's uh first year since uh prince andrew relinquished all of his titles that is true as he was exposed as allegedly being a pedophile yeah tough scene over there you think he won't be there king george as far as i knew was not a pedophile but he did hate fake breasts.
Starting point is 01:11:55 That was a big part of the documentary. He would date, he was trying to be a sugar daddy. He was on sugar daddy sites and then he would go on dates with these girls as part of the documentary. Like, you just asked are your boobs real or fake? And if they're fake, he would just end the date.
Starting point is 01:12:09 If there's ever a documentary about me after I pass, you can just leave out my preferences. You don't have to just, you know what I mean? This wasn't after his best. This is while he was alive. Okay, there's more to me than that. But so, yeah, it's under new management. God, I'm very interested to see.
Starting point is 01:12:25 I think it's still just running fine. So, but yeah, KJ, that is a good point. But should be a fun time. I appreciate it. Follow along at Rain and Trebaki. I'm sure I'll be putting some content out, hanging out with Bush too. Oh, yeah, Dan, Dan wants to do content. I think he's going to bring his podcasting equipment.
Starting point is 01:12:40 And our current thing is to do a Stephen Crowder type, change my mind. But we're going to, I want, we're doing props like, but we're doing, like, the, the king is corrupt or, like, fireballs are, you know, know it's unsafe just you know random like fake fantasy stuff that's that stands kind of he's bringing stuff to do content all right we'll see you might you might find you might find yourself uh when in the shackles with the tomatoes yeah exactly we'll see we'll see but i would have just gone when it's like the long lost son of king george or something like keep it simple call the banner men get my rifle claim to the throne
Starting point is 01:13:23 What about Davey, though? It would be dope if instead of the Bannerman, it was just David Banner. David's Bannerman. I love it. But you only bump like fucking all insert David Banner songs here. Everything that's coming brain was a passenger choice. Real girls get down on the floor, as I say. There you go.
Starting point is 01:13:42 Thank you. I don't even know what that means. I prefer Bruce Banner. Hey, all right. Come. I'm hulking out. It's low key. We've got to fall at the boys, my oldest of school.
