live from the early bird cbd studios this is the circling back podcast my name is dave dylan chivalry is here as well got it right that time how you doing going that's the best you've ever said my last name, man. Thank you. Thanks for doing that. I'm glad to be here. What if I let this beat rot a minute? Hey, you're on the boards, man. You do whatever the hell you want. You're producing this, bitch. It's true, I am. But hey, glad to be here. Will is still gone, of course. So Dave and I are holding down the ship. Do have another surprise guest for you all. It's no coincidence that King of the Jews is trending and Micah Weiner himself is here right now.

The self-proclaimed King of the Jews is what he's always telling people. The consenting cuck himself, Micah. Wow. The very polarizing Micah Weiner, I might say. Yeah, what happened? Why are people mad at you? I keep my takes hot. And sometimes people don't like them.

It's great to be back with you guys. Thank you for the invite. Thank you for being here. We missed you. And, you know, what a treat. I guess somebody must have leaked that my appearance was coming today, and thus the trend happened before I even walked in the building today. Hey, why is, I don't know if you know this,

but why is King of the Jews trending? We like to look at trending topics. It's in regards to a tweet from our president in which he quoted an article from someone named Wayne Allen Root, who is a former libertarian vice presidential nominee and noted conspiracy theorist. That's what it says on his Wikipedia. and noted conspiracy theorist. That's what it says on his Wikipedia. That's not just me speaking.

In which he said that our president is the greatest president in the history of Jews in the history of Israel. He considers Trump the first Jewish president in much the same way that Bill Clinton was known as the first black president. So there you have it. Oh, wow. And Trump retweeted it, and people are mocking him for it. It looks like it's maybe gone micro-viral. Nothing has gone as viral as the Popeye's chicken sandwich, though.

I'm sure you guys have already discussed this in depth. We have, yeah. We were ground floor, I think, actually. Everywhere you go, or everywhere, I just, my Twitter feed is only chicken sandwiches now. This week has been a huge week for Popeye's. or everywhere. I just, my Twitter feed is only chicken sandwiches now. It's a, this week has been a huge week for Popeye's. Um,

they are having a glow up. It's comparable only to white claw in 2019. Sure. Like who else? Like, as far as like free pub and like grassroots, I think it's grass. Maybe it's AstroTurf,

Micah, you can tell me. I believe this to be a, the, a real grassroots phenomenon. Uh, but yeah, dude think it's grassroots. Maybe it's AstroTurf, Micah. You can tell me. I believe this to be a real grassroots phenomenon. But yeah, dude, it's everywhere. There's even been some blowback. I'm seeing some people like, people were really defensive over Chick-fil-A. It's really kind of funny.

Just let us enjoy our pop-up. We don't have to get to it. But I will say yesterday, I was driving back from the beach, and we stopped in Rockport to try and find some food. And the choices, I will say yesterday uh i was driving back from the beach and we stopped in rockport to try and find some food and the choices i will say were underwhelming and we stopped at a golden chick i like golden i don't think i've ever stopped at a golden chick but it's like chicken fingers that's fine terrible jingle by the way let me interject go ahead golden chick that's their

jingle it's terrible that commercial It doesn't even really jingle. No, I didn't do it justice, but it's much worse than what I just did. Well, we got some Golden Chick, and it was perfectly mediocre. And then as we were leaving town, I saw a Popeye's, and I almost broke into tears. Oh, man. Have you had the chicken sandwich yet? No, this was my chance. They were probably sold out.

Apparently, that's a real problem. Yeah, I'm seeing that. Popeye's not known for service or delivering what you order. That's part of the joy of Popeye's. Part of the appeal. Yeah. You remember the guy who won American Idol or finished second? Sanjaya?

No, no, no. It was the white guy with gray hair. Soul Patrol guy? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it was him. Sure. soul patrol guy yeah yeah i think it was cameron sure uh he got very upset because somebody called him a white boy at uh popeyes and he tried to sue over it oh you don't sue over that come on dog is he still is this recent this is uh in the last year or two man i forgot about that dude dude. The Soul Patrol.

That was kind of a bit thing, right? Everybody was kind of voting for this guy because he was like the anti-American idol. He was like a jazz dude. Kind of cheesy. Moms liked him. You guys want to... I'm going to pivot. Can I do something different here? Can I try something?

You got to do, Dave. Dylan, put the headies on. Let's check in. Let's see if Will DeFreeze is available. I want to wake him up or see what... I don't know. Interrupt his check in. Let's see if Will DeFreeze is available. I want to wake him up or see what, I don't know, interrupt his beach session.

We'll see if this works. Go ahead and you can start dialing him in. I will mention, I should clarify it is Bo Bice had a tantrum about being called a white boy one time at Popeyes.

That's a different person. Yeah. Oh, it's ringing. That's exciting. We've never done this before. Unfortunately, Micah... Does he know we're calling? No.

Hello? Is this Will? This is Will. Who's this? It's D-Man. In Dorne. Oh, what's up, D-Man? Hey, you're on the pod.

You're live on Circling Beck right now, sir. Oh, that's what's up. What's up, D? Hey, you're on the pod. You're live on Circling Beck right now, sir. Oh, that's what's up. What's up, King? That's Micah. He can't hear you. If I have spotting service, I'm taking a scenic drive right now listening to jazz music. Yeah, your service sucks. Not going to lie.

Yeah, it's not great. Well, I mean, it's hard. Michigan is not exactly known for their self-service give us something controversial that's gone on up there give us something hot what's the dopest thing you've seen in Michigan

people are raving about the perch sandwich downtown right now and I think we're going to get one for lunch today have you ever had the chicken sandwich you know no I don't really like fish on a sandwich I only like fish on a taco or fish on a plate well I guess that that kind of makes sense um there hasn't been too much controversial going on up here

okay I think this call might be the most controversial thing, honestly. This is not the best quality. Hey, Will, it's good to hear your voice either way. Do they have a Popeye's in Harbor? No, no Popeye's. No fast food up here, unfortunately. Popeye's has gone certified viral. That's so Harbor Springs, not to have fast food.

We just really want uh all we really have here is just plastic wraps sandwiches so yeah you better get one of those photos off and i want the the chips included the ruffles or whatever it is you eat dude they don't have them this year the most controversial thing they got rid of the all dress chips at the sandwich shop that's pretty devastating that's trash what's up the mail-dress chips at the sandwich shop. Yeah, it's been pretty devastating. That's trash. What's up, Sal? The mail-in zone, Sally Young. Wow. Hi.

All right. I'm in the car. Cool, cool, cool. This has been fun. This has been great. We're going to cut it off. We just wanted to prove that you're alive and well and didn't go to the ringer like everybody said you would.

Yeah. Do you have a Kibbeza watch for going to Northern Michigan? There's no Kibbeza watch in Northern Michigan, Sally. Calm down. Yeah, you're on like stubbed toe watch in Michigan. Oh, that's good. Hey, Micah, can you get that package for me to our apartment? I texted you about it.

Yeah, Micah can't hear you, Hoss, but I'll pass that along. Was it about his package? Yeah, it was. I will pick up the package on my way home today, unless it's illegal. Tight. He's got you, fam. All right, well, you guys have safe travel. Say hi to your aunt for us.

All right, we love you. We will travel. Say hi to your aunt for us. All right, we love you. I will. Say hi to Nancy. Bye. Bye. That was electric. How fun was that? That was almost too much fun.

The quality was so good, it's like he was sitting right next to us. The quality was so good, it's like no one's going to ever say anything about that. The technology has really come so far. Seriously, though, how has uh what so far how is michigan such a trash when it comes to cell service i feel like even in the the middle of big country big sky texas like you're driving through like gold weight there's some shit you can get better service than that like the middle of nowhere i recorded a phone interview yesterday for my sports podcast, Backdoor Cover, via the phone on the beach in Port Aransas. Full cell service. Better than I have in my own apartment.

The only thing that was distracting about it were the seagulls in the background. I was going to say the wind. It's like the windiest beach in North America. They call it the windy city. It is so windy on that beach. I'm talking like 30, 40 miles per hour. I don't know how you got. Oh, call it the windy city. It is so windy on that beach. I'm talking like 30, 40 miles per hour. I don't know how you got... Oh, yeah, the wind blows.

You must have found a little calm... the eye of the storm, and it was calm enough to get a cell phone call off. What's the new-ish Palmer course down there? I played it a couple years ago. I forget what it's called. It's the windiest round of golf I've ever played. It's right on the beach.

That's where a rattlesnake almost got your boy, took me down. You know they live in those sand dunes. You got to be careful. It is a high rattlesnake area. That's weird. I didn't know that until a few years back. The snakes chilled in that. You sit down in the golf cart and they have warning signs plastered everywhere,

like inside the cart. Like, don't go chasing your ball through the brush. Don't go on the dunes because there are tons of rattlesnakes and sure enough the course i'm referring to is palmia beach golf club i may not have played that one but i would recommend so windy one very close to that how are you supposed to chip with that going on oh man he did chipping's one of the easier he did that happy gilmore line oh okay yeah movie references right over my head yeah crush the sick right thank you um hey a little housekeeping before we get into it although we did kind of just get into it don't forget we got episodes on patreon that drop friday patreon.com slash circling back. Subscribe for $5. Get a weekly listener voicemail.

It's actually slash circling back podcast. You're right. I cut that off. It's all right. That's very good. It's all right. Also, we have the optimized tier. $10 gets you our world famous Bachelor,

Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise content. No one's doing that. We're also going to be mixing in more just like one off. Anything that comes up, we're going to talk about, going to go on that optimized tier. Yeah, like if you want to hear me interview a dude who I went to high school with, just me and him, that's going to be the tier for you.

Oh, today we got a special guest, by the way. Can we tease her? Sure. We got the real cat, Pat. She's calling in for the Bachelor in Paradise episode. Yeah. New Jersey's finest, right? Is she Jersey?

Yeah, she's somewhere. New York? Somewhere. We have mutual friends. She's northeast of here. Really? Yeah. Oh.

She knows some people that I know. So shouts to her. Look at that. And I don't think it's Jersey. I think she's going to be hot about that. Sorry. My next note here, it says, introduce the consenting cook, Micah, which I think it's Jersey. I think she's going to be hot about that. Sorry. My next note here, it says, introduce the consenting cuck, Micah,

which I think we already did. Where does that joke stem from? How did... It's a great question. And why are your takes so hot? Like, why... When did you become the most polarizing person in podcasting? I just don't think anybody has time for lukewarm takes.

That's true. And I try and bring them everywhere I go. And while we're talking about the places I go and I bring those takes, I should probably share those with the people. Let's start with backdoor cover. Perhaps you've heard of it if you know about the career of Dylan Chivary, a podcast he hosted for about three years. Yeah.

I now host it. I lost the reins to it, and you took over. Yeah. He fumbled it. I picked it up. Come football season. Hey, I don't know if you guys know this, but football season's almost here. It couldn't get here soon enough.

Isn't that the truth? Yeah, it really could not. Isn't that the truth? And if you want bonus covers, we're going to continue to bring you backdoor cover throughout football season. But we have launched a Patreon as well, and I'm here to promote that. What? Bonus covers. We're going to continue to bring you backdoor cover throughout football season. But we have launched a Patreon as well, and I'm here to promote that. What?

Yeah. What is it? Patreon.com slash backdoor. Patreon.com slash backdoor, like backdoor cover. That's interesting. It could very easily have been a different URL. Yeah. Different Patreon landing page.

It could have been. I feel like back in the day i may have subscribed to a similar one but it was very different well we hopefully we uh trick some people into subscribing that don't know what backdoor cover is and are just looking for patreon.com backdoor but whatever the case may be uh for a dollar and a quarter a week you get an extra bonus episode that brad key and i will do sunday morning so you get all the recap from saturday plus the the late line moves things looking forward to sundays it's great plus uh for that five dollar uh level you can also join our uh exclusive pool which uh people will get made paid money each week for betting on sports games. Oh, so not like a Sunday swim with Micah.

No, no, that's not it. We have other tiers. Check it out. There's a lot of cool stuff. There's some experiences. You know, if you pay $100 a month, you get to play golf with me, Brad, Peter the Irish guy, and Will DeFreeze. Think about that. In a fivesome?

Yeah. You can be our fifth. Dude, nobody wants to. No one's paying an extra $100 to play in a fivesome. You need to cut. You can replace me with Will or cut Will out. Will volunteered for it. Fives is too long of a round in this Texas heat. Anyway, there's a lot of good stuff there. Plus, you know, I should

remind everybody, the return of power plant picks. Plus, I should remind everybody, the return of power plant picks. Now, we have no sponsors to answer to. It's going to be more electric than ever before. I don't know if that's possible. I'm on your Patreon page right now, and it's funny. Thank you. We didn't shout it out.

Wash Media. The $5 tier, to join that tier, you are... That makes you a backdoor bad boy. Okay. Yeah, you call yourself a backdoor baddie. But if you're a female, or if you identify as one, you can be a backdoor baddie. Oh, man.

That's worth $5 a month. Yeah. If you want to... You can identify... You can identify as a backdoor bad boy. As a backdoor baddie. We're a backdoor baddie. It doesn't even matter who you are.

Micah, can I give you a gas up and then a criticism? Please. This is from the Circling Back subreddit. Oh, good. One of these is one of the more, I'm sorry, it was so biting that it's, I'm hoping you'll find the humor in it. This is from a user, New Muffins.

What's the deal with the Micah hate? I think he's so unintentionally funny that it's even funnier listening to him. Plus, mixing it up always helps. That's nice. Thank you, New Muffins. This one goes a different way. This is from a guy. I'm not even going to name his name.

It's different, though. The putrid insecurity that bleeds from him every time he opens his mouth. I could go on a rant, but it seems like it would fall on lost ears. Basically, I come to circling back for light and easy banter to have fun and relax micah is the opposite of that what's up what's that mean well that's probably true i am uh neurotic and and uh generally uncomfortable at most times but name this man so i can find him on twitter and block him i don't know if they didn't come at you on Twitter, though. This is on Reddit.

He might be the first ever hashtag blocked via Reddit. He's going to hear this. If he wants to, he will hop on Twitter, and he will identify himself. Yeah, come at me on Twitter. At Michael Weiner. He will sacrifice himself to it. M-I-C-A-H-W-I-E-N-E-R. Look for the verified checkmark.

JG Showtime. Man, he said flat out, please do not bring Micah in on Wednesday. So he might have lost the list. Yeah, he stopped listening. I'm sorry. Sorry. Well, shouts to all the patrons out there. Some of them really do love you, though.

Some of them. Well, yeah. That's part of the life that I've chosen. I miss having a fourth, having a producer who, I mean, you know, he picks his spots, he chimes in when he wants, but when he does chime in, a lot of times it's like, I don't know, maybe a terrible take or maybe just an unnecessary take or maybe he's just not paying attention.

But I love the roasting, the back and forth that comes with that. Sometimes you need that man to roast. Yeah. And I've had a lot of fun being that man on occasion we had a lot of fun this is it was a it was a good run the first few months of circling or touching base our old podcast or you'll have to say that anymore oh whatever it didn't matter i uh no one's listening anyway that's true i we were still trying to figure out i was still trying to figure out micah so like there's it's really like interesting dynamic but then like i think we all kind of got on the same page like it's an acquired

taste the last year was just was electric in my opinion oh not in this other dude on the reddits but in my opinion that's it's tough break hey one other place you can find me while we're uh still promoting myself jesus check out mind of micah. Mind of Micah. Dude, I did that podcast last week. Yeah, Dave joined me. Dave did Backdoor Cover, actually. I was in Backdoor Cover. But you've done Mind of Micah in the past. Dylan's done Mind of Micah.

Will did Mind of Micah last week, actually. We talked about Love Island. Mind of Micah. Search it wherever you listen to podcasts. I talk for like 20 minutes at a time. We have guests on. Normally, the episodes are a little shorter. It's easy listening.

This week, upon a suggestion from a listener dr mark allen i will be doing micah's meal of the week okay don't name drop your listeners you happen to be doctors there's only one you're trying you're trying to like sell yourself as like some kind of you know new yorker atlantic uh intellectual i i am a uh a coastal elitist at least at heart third coast though anyway uh mike is meal of the week coming today okay on mind of micah get it wherever you listen to podcasts are we done i think we normally charge a good amount of money for those kind of are we finished promoting micah can we get regularly scheduled content now yeah which is what?

No, I'm kidding. Hey. Good stuff. Thanks, guys. I don't know if you saw this, but Dylan's son. The homie. The homie. He started pre-K yesterday.

A.K.A. Parks Edwin. Shivery. My man's. P.E.C. Those strong initials. That's going to look good on a monogram shirt. I think so, too. Yeah, he started pre-K yesterday.

Did you see this? I did. Did you like the photo? The photo went pretty macro. It has become my most liked photo already. It's not even... Did this go up on Gram? I just saw it on Twitter. It went up on Gram. Oh, you haven't liked it on Gram then. Yeah, I haven't gotten to it.

It's on the Gram. It's about... It's close to 24 hours in now. And it's my most liked photo of all time. And I would appreciate it if you went... It's doing numbers. Well, I'll hop in there. If you would go's doing numbers well i'll go to at d shivery c-h-e-v-e-r-e-r-e i'm gonna stop you right there we'll tap it you privately texted me and said that you were kind of bothered that this is your most liked ever you're like dude i've posted like thirst traps shirt off pics and they're not doing these numbers what's the deal you were asking me it was weird no that didn't happen oh man wow this is even better than what you put on it's on twitter well yeah well you just got a double tap from me

this is huge look at the third one look at the third slide no i'm sorry the fourth one him going through the lunch line with this tray like come on so was that breakfast or lunch that was breakfast so they do breakfast for the pre-k kids yeah that's great he gets dude his school's cool they get like a few options he had a cereal option um some kind of like sausage patty breakfast sandwich speaking of sausage he told me he didn't like that one that much speaking of sausage your second photo is a how the sausage was made photo you like that yeah i thought that'd be a fun one to throw in there for the kids it's really good that is it's fantastic we've talked about this a little bit privately i don't know if we've talked about on the show when you post photos of of the homie which you should because he's he's

killing it you get a lot of feedback i would imagine more than when you post photos in addition to likes you also probably get a little bit more uh you know dms things of that nature oh yeah and they're probably a little weirder than the ones you normally get well no no they're not weirder but it's just like he's so cute you probably get a lot of those you got to double tap that but when i post a picture of myself it's pretty much the comments are like people just roasting my outfit or something that's that's what our listeners and followers love to do there's a lot of gas up there's's some gas up too, of course. But a lot of it is like, man, that's a trash fit type stuff.

But when I post to Homie, it's 100% positive commentary every time. It's great. I love doing it. I did mention previously that when I post a story of him on Instagram, I just get so many comments that it overwhel overwhelms my my inbox my dm and your box it floods my box too much going on uh and so it's a little bit like oh god i got like 40 messages to go not not i shouldn't complain about that it's a great problem to have people yeah i love i love it um do you just cut and paste a message to everybody? Just, thanks, fam.

If they put just a little effort into it, meaning very little, just a few words, I'll hit them with a double tap, like the like, like, thank you. Sometimes I'll give them an actual response, though, if it calls for it, if they put a little extra effort into their comment. It's thoughtful. It's good stuff. I love it. I'm always wary of the double tap. I always try to put myself in that person's shoes.

I'm like, would I want the double tap and no response? Because it's just kind of like a knowing now. Do you get a notification? Yeah. Yeah. See, I don't have notifications on. I feel like you shouldn't get a notification for the double tap. It can't be worse than just commenting commenting on someone's

picture and then like a few hours ago like i wonder if they saw it you go back and it has a little uh you know it says seen like they saw your message and just didn't do anything it's tough it's tough yeah it's tough because i mean we do get a lot of dms i'm i normally respond with like maybe a shocker bra yeah okay but and know, that can be interpreted many different ways. Back to the homie, though. I'm so proud of this kid. He took it all in stride. He was very happy when we dropped him off.

We got to sit with him while he ate his breakfast. Just happy, happy to be there talking to his little classmates. Does he know any of these kids yet? I'm just so proud of that kid. This is an all-new social group. Everything's brand new. New teacher, obviously. New students.

What's the story on this teacher? I probably shouldn't divulge details about his teacher. We don't need details. Just kind of, it seems like a very... 40,000 feet. I just want to make sure my man's getting the best education possible. She's a very nice young lady. Okay. Yeah. lady. Okay.

Yeah. Great. Yeah. Well, we're excited for the, I'm realizing now that he's wearing a Royal blue polo and bright red Jays, very gang neutral, which is good on the first day.

That's the thing about parks. Either that or he's offending both sides. Equally. You don't want to set allegiances on the first day of school. You got to keep your options open. That's fair. He'll join a gang eventually, but for now he's going to keep it neutral. They'll start recruiting him soon.

What area of town is he going to school in? I'm just curious. He's in South Austin. South Austin. Okay, tight. South side. Fucking low coast. Dude, he's just killing it. I'm. Okay, tight. Southside. Fucking locos. Dude, he's just killing it.

I'm very excited, man. I'm not picking him up until Thursday for dinner, but he's going to have a lot to talk about. He sent me a text, and he was like, dude, this breakfast is low-key trash. It was just funny. I was like, dude, just enjoy it, man. You're getting your macros in.

It's sick. This picture I posted of him holding his little tray, carrying his food to the table, someone photoshopped a CC's pizza box on it. Got that too. I don't know if you saw that or not. I thought that was pretty funny. I thought that was pretty funny. Yeah. So when are you going to start training him, including intermittent fasting? Good question. We've already started. His window is actually just six hours. We shrunk it down. So he's a tiny, he's a tiny human. Yeah. He's just six hours. We shrunk it down. He's a tiny human. Yeah, he's a little guy.

Tiny human, tiny window. He's trying to add lean weight right now. Is he a cold brew guy? Does he get MCT or just a little early bird CBD in the morning? What's his routine? A little matcha. He hasn't gotten into the CBD game yet. I got him a few of those little sample packets of the cordyceps mushrooms.

I'm going to hook him up with when I see him Thursday. Just sprinkle it on his CC's cheese pizza? Yeah, just to help optimize. Also, how's his gut bacteria? It seems to be pretty strong. A lot of people message me worried about his because they know the genetics of it because yours is trash., the genetics, plus I don't keep a lot of those good, what do you call them, probes in the house. Yeah.

Yeah. He has a probe deficiency. Yeah, that's a shame. Probes are very important. Yeah. Anyway, what a kid, man. He shouts to probes. He's taking it all in stride.

He's going to do great things. Man. I know. A lot of our people in our little universe, their kids are going to school. Like Bandujo, our buddy Kyle Bandujo's kid. Yeah. He's going to school.

He posted a gram. Pete Hart. School started this week. Some schools started last week, I think. By the way, let's just say this. Let's be clear. It is too hot to start school. Yeah. I believe that. You can't have way, let's just say this. Let's be clear. It is too hot to start school. Yeah.

I believe that you cannot have a, you can't have a good faith recess in this kind of heat. And I think we can all agree that recess is very important. He did recess yesterday and I believe they just kept it indoors. Just go to the gym or something. I went to the gym and played around there. Yeah. Man. His,

his PE teacher, I saw him. He's like this big muscle-bound dude with a big beard. Oh, really? It looks like he would work it on it. Oh, badass. Yeah. I'm sure that Parks' lifestyle will be appreciated then.

Dude, Parks is going to be working out with Tim Kennedy before too long. Well, I mean, we know that Dylan and Tim Kennedy agree on masculinity. So they're aligned. I screwed up, dude. I don't know what that means. That little two-and-a-half-pound kettlebell that I got, Parks, is a little too heavy. I should also say that none of the listeners except for David and I

really understand what that means. So don't worry about it, Dylan. The two-and-a-half-pound kettlebell, you got him? Yeah, it was a little bit much. Too much load for his back? It's too much. I don't really't worry about it don't the two and a half pound kettlebell you got him yeah it's just it was a little bit too much load for his it's too much i don't really want to overload his lower back do they get smaller than that and two and a half pounds yeah dude they had a one pound well one pound kettlebell it was the cutest little thing it'll be fine though oh yeah well i'm happy about that i'm also happy about fulton and rourke you know fulton and rourke micah you remember them.

They've been around for a long time. They've been supporting us from the jump. Yeah, from the jump. The two-in-one body face wash shampoo. That's a favorite of ours. Dylan even just sometimes will go. Did I say face wash? The two-in-one is just a body wash.

The body wash shampoo. Yeah, but they do have a face wash, and Dylan loves that. Micah, the aftershave wipes micah's been a huge proponent of those put them in your dop kit if you got a road trip coming up or took them to the beach this weekend they're great i'll just say this fulton and rorke hasn't written me a check in in several months still love them yeah still using them i've still used the the the aftershave wipes they are not just for aftershaving. No. They are really tremendous. They've got eucalyptus.

They're really nice, individually wrapped. You know that feeling when you're about to go to dinner or something and you don't want to shower and you don't want to rewash your face? That's the perfect time for the face wipe.

Just wipe it down. Gets the oil off. You feel great. No doubt. The moisturizer. Take it off. I'm back to the wipes here. Go.

You get off an airplane. Oh, it's perfect. I'm back to the wipes here. Go. Get off an airplane. Oh, it's perfect. You're waiting for your bag and baggage claim. Wipe, wipe. You're good to go. Yeah. You feel like a new man. Mike, I got something for you.

The multiplayer is very fun. Hey, I'm real excited for this next segment. It's called Dave's Segment. Can I tell you something about Dave's Segment?

This is going to break your heart. I imagine you're going to tell us a lot about it since I don't know anything about it. Dave's Segment was actually just me surprise calling Will. Oh. Yeah. So we already got that out of the way. Yeah, we got that out of the way. Unfortunately, Will lives in the woods in Michigan,

so it didn't really turn out that well. Hey, Mike is pulling his phone out, taking a photo. Cool. Fun guy. It's a video, actually. Are you live? It's just a video. No, just Snapchat.

At MikeATX on Snapchat. No one's doing Snapchat anymore. I actually deleted Snapchat. No, this could be Dave's segment, but Dylan, I feel like you're not going to have a lot on this just because you weren't in on the UFC 241. But Mike and I, we went and watched it at Little Woodrow's on West 6th. Y'all do your thing.

I feel like I brought it up a little bit Monday, but I know Barrett and Dylan aren't that interested in it. But what a fucking card. What a night. What a night. What a fun atmosphere. That's the first time I've watched an entire card at a bar. And let me say, while I did come home smelling like just musty, toxic masculinity,

it was damn worth it, man. That was a lot of fun. It was. Little Woodrow's, one of our favorites. Laid back. I wouldn't say a sports bar per se but laid back place on west six street plenty of tvs lots of tvs and it was their anniversary party and there was a cowboys pre-season game what a crowd which brings out the best really does there were uh lots of men there

but they showed the ufc card with for free there was no no cover. It was very nice. We got the sound for the last three fights, which were all epic. The card on the whole was great and the top three fights were amazing. Really amazing. Including, I mean, we should probably start at the top.

Start with Stipe versus Daniel Cormier for the heavyweight championship of the world i think a lot of people think stipe is now the greatest heavyweight of all time i'm not going to argue that it's a hard it's a hard one to argue he's defended more than any other heavyweight champion he did that before and he won his belt back from the man who dethroned him dc and he did it dude by making adjustments which was i mean that round he came out clearly saw something for those who don't know he won any uh via knockout in the fourth round yeah so and

and many had cormier winning the first three rounds yeah and and stipe was able to weather the storm and he landed about five or six stand there it was just a really impressive performance yeah he got him with the body shots and dc looked shook and then he landed a pretty hard right and man it was over it was it was interesting man because dc if he just wrestled and tied him up i mean for the next two rounds it's over it's like he would have won unanimously but he started he tried to strike with him and that's kind of Stipe's game. Stipe's a decent wrestler, but not like Daniel Cormier. Yeah, he was a gold gloves boxer,

so his background is in standing on his feet and throwing bombs. Also having terrible, terrible tattoos. That's his other strength. Yeah, it's not great. It's not great. But he's a true champion. Never underestimate the heart of a champion. Cleveland's own. Yeah. Cleveland's own.

Yeah, Cleveland's own. Full-time firefighter. Is it weird that LeBron, I don't think, has acknowledged it? I feel like when they were both in Cleveland at the same time, they kind of had a rapport and LeBron doesn't even acknowledge it. I did not notice that. I thought that was a little bit weird. Cleveland, this one's for you.

Something like that. That's what LeBron said. Yeah, but that's... Stipe should have said the same thing. That would have been... He might have gotten a shout-out. How about Nate Diaz post-fight, like everything that he's been doing after the fight? Everything. He's the coolest dude in UFC. Nate Diaz had his first fight in three years

after his last fight was against Conor McGregor. Many people may have seen that. That was the second McGregor fight. His first fight back in three years, a classic performance by Nate Diaz. He's bloodied. He's talking shit the whole time. He's dirty boxing.

It was exactly what you wanted. And then after the fight, gave a tremendous press conference. And then everything since then, before the fight, he did everything you wanted him to do. He pulled out a joint during the open workouts, and then he delivered a classic performance.

And then afterwards, they asked him about Colby Covington. He said, who is that? I've never heard that name before. What weight class does he fight at? And then they asked him about being a father. I've got to find the exact quote, because that was the best thing that he said. I was very happy that he called out Masvidal.

I want to see Nate Diaz, Cuban Jesus. That has to happen. I'm all in. Take my money right now. You could tell there's a mutual respect between those two, and that's going to be a good fight. That's going to be a really good fight. Jorge Masvidal is the dude who had the knee knockout of Ben Askren

about a month ago. Oh, that lasted like three seconds? The most insane UFC fight you'll ever see, yeah. Just a flying knee to end the fight before it even starts. Yeah, the guy said he woke up and he wasn't even sweating because it ended so quickly. Yeah. He was unconscious and came to like, what?

Dude, that's kind of the weirdest feeling. Oh, dude. The quote afterwards, someone asked, to be the weirdest feeling. Oh, dude. The quote afterwards, someone asked, one of the reporters asked Nate Diaz if fatherhood has changed his approach to fighting. He says he's been a father for years. He fathered all these motherfuckers.

That is so, that's so Nate Diaz. It's just classic. He delivered. The man delivered. And I'd love to see him fight Cuban Jesus. What a fun night. We're hanging out with your best friend, Jared Borslow, J-Bone.

Oh, boy. Yeah, Dan was there, too. Jack Hammer. Dan Regester. He had some Philly friends there. Oh, he did. He really did. My friend, Mr. Coach Bobby, was there making it weird.

It was a making it weird. It was, it was a real great night. People were wondering if you were going to get a coach Bobby reference in on this pod. There he is. Delivered. This is why people hate you. It's a throwback.

Well, the touching base listeners, coach Bobby. Yeah. Mr. Coach Bobby. It was a great time though. It was,

uh, the, all three of the, the big card, the, of the big fights on the card were excellent, including the Cuban dude who allegedly 42, one of the closest fights, Yoel Romero.

That was a great fight. Who lost, but in a valiant effort. Great nights. Did I tell you that Jared and I, after everybody left, we were like, hey, Jared's like, I'm going to do my Jared impression. It's really good. I don't get it. Let's go get another drink, we were like, hey, Jared's like, I'm going to do my Jared impression. It's really good. I don't get it. Let's go get another drink.

I was like, what? I'm sorry, I didn't understand. He's like, let's go get another drink. I'm like, okay. So we went over to Parler, Jared, just J-Bone and I at Parler in the midst of like... Wow, on a Saturday night, about 11.30? What time was this? Like 11.30. Dude. Yeah, J-Bone and I went after it, man. I don't ever hang out with that guy.

1130 is basically 230 for us now. Yeah, no, you're right. Oh, no. I was out the door at 1101. The fight ended. The interview ended. And I was just gone. Several people were like, let's go have another one.

No. That was us. I took Irish car bombs at one point. You did do car bombs. I knew that was it for you. I took Irish car bombs at one point. You did do car bombs. I lost a bet, and then the guy who I lost the bet to just disappeared while I was at the bar waiting to get the Irish car bombs and wasn't there. So I only took one. I didn't slam them both.

I don't think I've had one in about nine years, and I hope not to have another one for another nine. They do me in, they kind of taste good as far as taste goes they're the best because you know i'm a guinness boy i we know that yeah kind of i sneaky like them i once did two in one night and uh and it was just like uh it was like i took a xanax and did like five shots that's what it felt like wow yeah they but they black me out is what i'm saying well i'm pretty much over the hill i yesterday i was on the beach and i had like four trulies and i was just twisted off we didn't see

any grams that that may come later okay may come later are you truly guy no i'm more of a claw guy okay but the the trulies were on sale. I don't know. I got the Tropical Pack. We're trying to try all of these. I'm trying to go through the entire Seltzer universe right now. But the claws are still in the lead. I thought the Trulies are actually quite good, though.

The Tropical Pack. The Pineapple Trulie might be a game changer. I'm willing to do that. I'm willing to try all of them, but there's new ones popping up every day. It's hard to keep up. Like, Pabst Blue Ribbon has one. Yes.

I went to Specs and Total Wine to try and see if we could find the Pabst or the Natty one, or, you know, just to see what's out there. Is PBR still the official, the official Eastside hipster beer? Remember, PBR was like, that was it. That was like the ironic hipster beer.

I think Lone Star is still there for the cheap beer in Austin anyway. You don't see PBRs as much as you used to, though. Yeah, I feel like I had a couple year run. Yeah, where people were like, no, no, Lone Star's trash. I need PBR to show how truly hip I am. Hey, this next segment is called Viral Tweet Segment. Okay. You like viral tweets, don't you?

Sure. Did you see this one from Jennifer Titus on Twitter? It says, how cool do you keep your house? New report shows these as the recommended temps for energy efficiency. we have a going green initiative here in this pod so it's this this works in very nicely 78 degrees when you're at home 85 degrees when you're at work or away 82 degrees when you're sleeping this generated a lot of buzz that's insanity for obvious reasons and i'm curious what y'all's thermostat habits are.

Well, it's certainly not 85 at night. Let's start by saying that. That's crazy. 82, to be fair. Okay, anything in the 80s is insane. If my thermostat, I know all thermostats are a little bit different, right? But if mine is at 72 or higher, I flat out cannot sleep. I just sweat, and I can't get comfortable.

72. Studies have shown that the cooler, that you need temperatures in the 60s to sleep, you're most efficiently. Yeah, that's true. And the lowest I go is like 71. 71's where we cut it off. But I have read and I've had people tell me that like 69.

Nice. Are you guys fan guys? Oh, yeah. Fan, AC, thermostat set to 70 is my usual sleeping environment. That sounds perfect, really. I think that's about where we are. I have the fans going at all times. Now, this tweet, is this motivated by...

Circulation. Like the Green Initiative? Yeah. Okay. Well, because there's a problem with the power grids. They're getting, you know, I don't know. I think it's kind of died down, but there was some rolling blackouts.

There's some blackouts happening in Texas. It's tough. I mean, dude, when it's 100, he didn't exit 110. The authorities have asked to not run your clothes dryer and to turn off all unnecessary lights between 4 and 7 p.m. in Texas for the last two weeks. I think that stuff's reasonable. I mean, that's very reasonable right people there's like

a segment of people who like to troll and be like oh i'm gonna i'm gonna run it twice as twice as hard like you know to just to kind of be like you can't tell me what to do but like i mean dude it's fucking hot you got a lot of people using power uh the thought of losing power luckily it never happened to us but like losing power in the middle of the day is miserable the thought of losing power luckily it never happened to us but like losing power in the middle of the day is miserable the thought of leaving it at 85 when you're not at home do you know how long that takes to recool yeah i don't think that's the efficient way to do this i don't either i feel like it takes more energy i don't know because well i've always heard that if you turn your ac off like some people would turn their ac off when they go to work and then come back

it takes more energy to get it back to that level than if you just keep it at a reasonable or, you know, 75, 78, whatever it is. I've heard the same. I don't know how accurate that is.

There's probably a happy medium. There's new technology. Maybe you turn it up to like, you know, 77, 78, just to like give your AC a break, but you're still keeping the,

some of the cool air inside. Then when it's time to catch up to, you know, go back down to 72, 73. It doesn't have to work quite as hard. Yeah, but I don't know. This is taking a lot of the heat off of the air conditioning is sexist lady.

Oh, yeah. Remember that? Yeah, we hate her. Not because of that take necessarily. Didn't she come at Will DeFreeze? Yeah. She came at Will DeFreeze over the old hey ladies debacle.

I know Will doesn't like to say that on the podcast, but I just did. Yeah. That person is trash. Yeah, I think she jumped in and wasn't really aware of all the facts. And plus, the whole argument that they had was just completely egregious. Sexist. Air conditioning is sexist. That's that dylan and i talk about a lot sometimes we'll facetime and we'll just debate the things that these people come up with man

it's uh come on yeah but i love a good viral tweet and you know if nothing else that did there was some good there's some good uh some good stuff on twitter about that what was that you saw the tweet pulled up what was the ratio on that tweet? Did she get ratioed? Let's find out. I had to close out the Newsweek article because my computer sounds like it's about to explode. I love a good ratio.

I almost got... I was on the verge of getting ratioed, where I kind of did. About my... You see my tweet about the Texas... Oh, I saw it. Yeah. I think I saw you tweet it at the gym.

Like, I literally was watching you. Yeah, you probably did. I think I saw you tweet it at the gym. Like I literally was watching you. Yeah, you probably did. I was at the gym when it happened. People weren't crazy about my take there, but you know what? I stand by it. Explain your take. Oh, I just said Texas is going to beat LSU and OU this year. Do you guys have a high porn on here?

This would be a perfect time to hit the button. Well, you don't have the volume up. That was not the hype horn. Let's try this one. That's my least favorite one. I'm sorry. We don't have a hype horn. Okay, sorry.

Because that's the kind of just fire takes that you're looking for. Your testosterone must have been just max level. You should really host a sports podcast. I also said Jalen Hurts is average on his best day, which I completely stand by. That I disagree with. Okay. That I disagree with.

And I think my take on him at OU. He's a game manager. I don't think he's a game manager, but I don't think he has to be. We shall soon see. I don't think he has to be Kyler or Baker for them to win the Big 12 and compete. Oh, you probably still win the Big 12 because they do every year.

But they're going to lose to Texas. That's all I'm saying. Okay. Texas is beatable, as they have been. Who's going to beat Texas this year? They're going to go up to Waco and lose. They're going to lose two games they're not supposed to. They're going to lose to Baylor.

They're going to go up to Waco, and they might be undefeated. It's a November game, maybe the week before Thanksgiving. They may be a one-loss team or a no-loss team, but they're going to get upset by Charlie Brewer and the gang. And the gang. And the gang. You guys going to put a little bet on this? No.

Maybe we'll wait until the week of. Okay. I'm just trying to rile you guys up a little bit. Yeah. I'll see Dylan in the gym later, and we'll maybe until the week of. Okay. I'm just trying to rile you guys up a little bit. Yeah. I'll see Dylan in the gym later, and we'll maybe talk about it. Hey, can I tell you, speaking of college football. I think you're soon enough. That's true.

I think there's a game Thursday. Yeah, I know. There's one magazine that you need. You know the magazine that you need? Are you plugging some other shit? No, not Dave Campbell's Texas football magazine. Great magazine. I've been featured in it several times, but that's no big deal.

Okay, what is the magazine? Just tell us. Phil Steele. Phil Steele's magazine. It's his college football preview. Those who know, the real ones know. So I went to the beach, and a lot of the beach time that we had was just kind of sitting there, relaxing, reading.

Caitlin likes to read at the beach. And so I was like, oh, I'll go get the Phil Steele magazine. I'll have something to read. I'll get caught up on college football. I'll sound like I know what I'm talking about on backdoor cover, patreon.com slash backdoor. So we get to Aransas Pass. Before we get to Port Aransas, I go into the HEB.

They don't have it. I went to almost every shop inside of Port Aransas looking for the Phil Steele magazine. Not available anywhere. Finally, I drove to a Barnes & Noble in Corpus to go get it. An hour round trip. They did not have it on the rack, but they had it at the checkout. I got it. And now I am fully optimized for football season.

Wait, why did you just get it on a tablet? Because I didn't bring my tablet with me. And you can't really read my tablet on the beach. I don't have the good Kindle. You've got to have a physical magazine or book on the beach. It's more fun that way. Yeah, for sure. Unless you've got the old school Kindle that's sort of black and white.

Those are easy to read. Man, so you're ready to roll with this podcast you're doing. You are fully... I am. Fully knowledgeable. It's the only magazine the experts use. Wow.

Yeah. Anyway, so if anybody... That's a great aside. Yeah, if anybody knows... If anyone's going to Port Aransas, just know there's not a Phil Steele magazine

on that island. You have to get it before you get there. You've done such a great service to these people. Speaking of college football, y'all see that Matty B. Raps is out here have to get it before you get there. You've done such a great service to these people. Speaking of college football, y'all see that Matty B. Raps is out here trying to get a scholarship?

Yeah, dude. There's a segment on this run sheet. It says, Matty B. Breaks some boys off. I'm surprised that coaches haven't come out and given him an offer yet. Is he a sophomore? How old is Matty B.? Micah, stop.

Whatever you're doing, stop. Look, no, I'm just saying, if you're Lane Kiffin... The kid weighs 118 pounds. If you're Lane Kiffin and you're always looking for publicity, would you be surprised if you showed up and offered a scholarship and got a shout-out to, I don't know, 4 million Instagram followers? I think it's a good idea. Does he have 4 million?

No. He's got millions. He's got 860 on Twitter. He's bigger on the gram. Does he have $4 million? No. He's got millions. He's got $860 on Twitter. He's bigger on the gram. Is he? Oh, yeah. That makes sense. Let's look.

Matty B. I mean, we're both Matty B day one-ers. I wonder if... 3.7 mil. I wonder if as he gets older, he's taking control of his own social media because I'm willing to bet a large amount of money that it was his parents running his account. Yeah, it's him now.

And I wonder if, like, 15, he's like, Mom, let me get the keys to that Twitter. Did you know that the name on his jersey says King's Ridge? He's a true king. He's flexing so hard in this picture. It makes me want to cringe. Yeah, he looks like Derek Carr. Is that the one where he's with his girlfriend?

Yeah, varsity season as don't why do you keep or uh michael why do you keep zooming in the girl she looks very zooming in on this kid's right arm she's very young stop it dave i don't know man anyway i feel like he's gonna have to switch positions if he wants to score he tweeted a video of him going 90-plus on this defense. He's quarterback, I guess, and he went 90-plus for a touchdown. And that's just a really bad look at the other team. Yeah, because it's Matty B. Raps. It was bad enough when he was scoring goals on lacrosse, but when Matty B. Raps is going for 90 on you,

you've got to hang him up, right? That's not one you can come back from. I'm taking my helmet off. I'm walking off the field. I'm just throwing Coach the deuce. Like, Coach, I can't. I'm out of here. Y'all, good luck to you the rest of the season.

I just can't keep going. Man, imagine having to defend the zone read with Matty B. a quarterback. I'm making a prediction. Lane Kiffin will offer Matty B before the end of the year. I mean, it's a joke if he does. It's not a real scholarship. He's not a senior, right?

How old is he? I don't know. So he's got a little time to grow. His caption says varsity season. So you can be a varsity, of course, as a sophomore, junior. We need to follow them. So you can be a varsity, of course, as a sophomore, junior. We need to follow them. As the high school football podcast of note,

we have a duty to follow the Kings Ridge, whatever they are. The Kings Ridge Kings. Matty B is 16 years old, by the way. He's an Atlanta kid? I think so, yes. That makes sense. That makes sense. He's still doing music, right? Like, he's still rapping, huh? It's hard to say. Man, he's big on the gram. That makes sense. He's still doing music, right? He's still rapping, huh?

It's hard to say. Man, he's big on the gram. That's a lot of followers. Damn. Wherever he goes to college, man, you've got to think he's getting a bid. Did you know that in June of 2016, Morris, which is his last name,

released a memoir book called That's Rap? Really? Yeah, who wouldn't want to read, if he is 16 now, who wouldn't want to read a book written by a 13-year-old? I mean, I don't know if I would. I don't know, man. Everything about him is just funny. you got one account you have to delete

cole campbell or maddie maddie b is gone who's gone i don't even follow maddie b so it's obviously him no didn't not on instagram i do on twitter chirp us of course he's the one who he body bag one of them he's one who coined the uh the a small podcast that's right he said i'm the bad boy of small podcast because they called him the bad boy of rap oh that's right so he he came over the top yeah cole campbell's never come at it come at you because we're his biggest fans we just we just gas him up god i love the thing i'm chirping them they didn't they weren't in on it they were probably they probably thought they got a real good zinger off. They probably sent it from Chick-fil-A. They seem like a big Chick-fil-A family.

Micah and I are here for the Cole Campbell glow up, though. We all talk about that while I get a mid-pod tinky break on. Oh, sure, sure. There's some music here. He likes to play the jazz. Yeah, which is the Sunday Scaries. Those are crickets.

That's the mail-in. There it is. There we go. Now we're fucking. Okay, great. Wow, this is electric. So you want to talk Cole Campbell while he's getting a cheeky off? I can talk about whatever you want.

I mean, the only thing I want to talk about is the phenom, Cole Campbell. Cole Campbell is the greatest. He is, but I'll tell you what. He's got to get his weight under control. Every time he posts a picture, like a current picture, he's put on 15 pounds every update he gets. Well, I mean, it's tough living that lifestyle. If you're Matty B, or not Matty B, if you're Cole Campbell, you're going to the club with all the baddies. Oh, he's just swimming in baddies.

You know, in the last year, he's really transitioned from drinking that Boomin' Loud and just talking about how the coffee's got him hyped to taking shots all the time. Yeah. And Fireball, he seems to drink a lot of Fireball. And of course, he's crushing the stock market. His investments are all going crazy. That was the best. Cole Campbell is...

If you're not following the phenom, Cole Campbell, I don't know what you're doing. He's a national treasure. An international treasure because he's Canadian. Good point. No, but when you drink that much Fireball,

you're going to put on a few LBs. But somebody's got to rein him in a little bit. It's hard to be a phenom at his current construction. I just wish him nothing but the best in life. He deserves it. Yeah, I don't want to shame the guy. Yeah.

He deserves it. He's a generational talent, and if the world doesn't see him because he's 30 pounds too heavy for somebody to sign him, that's just a shame. The voice of an absolute angel, too. Yeah, yeah.

You talking about Cole? Yeah. All right, you can kill the music, Dave. I said kill it, bitch. I kind of want to let it ride. Do you want to play some Cole Campbell? No, we probably shouldn't do that. You know what I want to do, though?

This weekend in fun. Oh. Hey, can we talk rollback before we do that? Let's talk rollback. Rollback. As everybody knows, it's our favorite clothing brand. Randy 20.

Wow. Love it. This weekend in fun merch coming soon. Micah, do you want to start us off? Oh, man. Sure. I don't have much in the way of plans. As I mentioned, I went on a little vacation Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday this week.

So Friday's coming up. It's going to be fun, I went on a little vacation Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday this week. So Friday's coming up. It's going to be fun, I'm sure. Oh, you know what I am? I do have two plans. I'm going to a one-year-old's birthday party on Saturday. Shout out to Porter. And I'm sure he's an avid listener. And so that's exciting.

And then Saturday night, we're going to see a co-workers one-woman comedy show. I have to tell you, this sounds like an awful weekend. Well, I haven't been yet. Co-workers one-woman comedy show. Okay, hold on. Tell me about this. How long has this person been doing comedy? I don't know, but the fiance wanted to go last week, and I said no.

I have cage fights to watch. She's like, well, then we have to go the next week. And I have been excited to watch. It's like, well then we have to go the next week. And I have been, uh, excited about it ever since. I've only gone to one coworkers comedy show. It was when Jay Goldman did stand. I was there for that one as well.

I have to say he did a very good job, but some of the other people, not great, not great, but Jake killed it. Jake was great. This is apparently like a one woman show that she's been doing. Dude.

That's, that gives me, that gives me awkward anxiety, like secondhand embarrassment. And we've got to drive to South Waco to get there. Any trip north of the river for something I'm not excited about is the kind of thing that I get quite grumpy about. Yeah, that's hell. Yeah. But looking forward to that.

And probably drink some claws by the pool on Saturday. Well, I hope you get to hear some good jokes. Sure hope so. Dylan, what you got going on? Yeah, so Parks' mother will be out of town. She'll be in Cabo. So I have him the whole weekend. I will be taking him.

My dad's going to watch him on Saturday because I have a little fantasy football draft that I need to get to. Can't wait for that. We're doing it at a country club. Fantasy football can't get here soon enough. You know what? I love fantasy.

It's so much fun. I love fantasy football. Yeah, you're always telling me about it. No, I'm not that guy. Stop. Do you guys have a circling back fantasy league? No. No.

Might be something to start. I don't know. You want to run it? really all right anyway back to my weekend and fun so friday night we're just laying low might get a dinner off somewhere i'm not sure is it gonna be pizza friday no maybe we're doing pizza tomorrow oh i might take him to dinner somewhere we might order he usually likes to stay in if i give him the option he wants to go out and get some food, he wants to stay in, he usually likes to stay in. We might do pizza Friday again. Has he tried the Popeye's chicken sandwich yet?

No. Dude, you know it would be a flex if you sent him to school with one, like for lunch. Or you just brought him one. Damn. Dude. Parks' dad is the coolest. Do you think those pre- first kids are active on Twitter?

Do they know this thing's going viral? Uh, I don't believe they, they're active on Twitter. Yeah. You know, they're four. So they used to call you pre K in high school.

Didn't they, Micah? What does that stand for? Um, Sunday, more of the same. Just hanging out with the homie, Michael swimming. I don't know. Tight. It's low key. What does that stand for? Sunday, more of the same. Just hanging out with the homie, Michael Swimmin'. I don't know.

Tight. It's low-key. I love it. It's going to be a low-key weekend. What country club is the draft at? River Place. It's up there. Is that north?

Northwest, yeah. What do you drink during your fantasy draft? I'll usually sip on a lager, something like that. Okay. Big beer guy. You know Dylan? Dylan's the low-key beer snob. Yeah.

Of the squad? I didn't know that. Man, I found some. He loves a craft beer. I found some beers at HEB yesterday that are very hard to find. So I bought two Sixers. Wow. Anchor Liberty Ale.

I've talked about it on this podcast before. I had a San Francisco. I was actually thinking, like, man before I had a San Francisco. Um, I, I was actually thinking like, man, I can never find that beer. And then boom,

it hit me in the face. It was right there. So, you know, as of, I think this week in the state of Texas, if you go to a craft brewery, you can now buy beer.

Yeah. Up to a case, up to a case. Also wine and beer deliveries now available in Texas, which is huge. I guess. I don't know. I've never,

I've never really had that issue, but I can see, like, in college, you know, if everybody's too drunk to drive, just order some more beer. Yeah, you're at the pool this weekend crushing claws. You're running out of claws. Yeah. Dial it up. Get those, you know, don't get behind the wheel. No.

Well, that sounds like a great weekend. That concludes my weekend in fun, Dave. All right. Well, let me talk a little bit about mine, because fantasy football is going to like a great weekend. That concludes my weekend in fun, Dave. All right. Well, let me talk a little bit about mine because fantasy football is going to be a big player. I have my draft this weekend. I'm in one league. I've trimmed it down to one,

and it's a bunch of guys I went to college with. I've been in it for like a decade, never won. This year, feeling good, though. We do a little golf trip every year. It's always in Texas, nothing too far. Most of the guys live in Houston, Austin, and Dallas. So we'll find a spot, some neutral site. This year, I lucked out.

We're doing it in Austin, also at a country club. We do the draft Friday night. We're playing golf Friday during the day, and then we have the draft Friday night. Then Saturday, we're going to hitiday during uh during the day and then we got the draft friday night then saturday we're gonna hit the pool at this uh little spot and then uh we got a little dinner big dinner saturday night really looking forward to it it's always fun uh and the best part is i don't i live 20 minutes away so sunday morning i'm already in my hometown my domicile so it's huge yeah not having to drive back from like god when we've we've done all over the place but like anywhere like dallas or something that's a huge plus last year though we did uh the people who planned this didn't really

i don't know i guess they didn't think it through we may have talked about it ross is in the league also ross boland and he may have talked about it on his pod but the person who booked it last year booked this lake house on like canyon lake which is like in new brontfels in that area so in between san antonio and austin and it's an okay lake it's fine but uh this lake house was it was the shittiest thing any of any of us have ever ever seen like it was by far like we got ripped off i remember this yeah we got ripped off we walked into the room there was one room with uh five triple decker bunk beds the lowest bunk bed being just on the floor and it was i'm going to tweet a photo of it because it's so shitty um and i can't remember if i talked about it or not but it was it was

hilarious it was uh we got taken basically and it was it was on the lake but there was a house that these people who owned it lived in and so they were like out in their uh in their driveway like partying and stuff while we're also at the lake house so it was like this weird co-mingling thing it was the absolute worst one of the guys who was a a veteran and a marine when we were like we're looking at it we're all like taking photos he goes dude he goes i was in fallujah and this is worse than fallujah so it was uh it it was hilariously shitty, and I'm pretty excited to tweet that photo

because I don't think I've ever shared it. But you're going to laugh. I mean, it was just stupid. It was way too bad for guys in their 30s. Maybe if it was our first couple years in the league, like you and our 20s don't have any money, but now we're in our early to mid-30s. What's the entry fee for, but now we're in our early to mid-30s. What's the

entry fee for the league that you're in? Mine is $150. I think mine's $250. I think we have bumped ours to $250. It's gone up every year. I've played in this league since we were

freshmen in college, so it's been a long time. You're doing fantasy in college. Yeah, it's been a long time. You're doing fantasy in college. Yeah, it's taken a long time for us to get. I was like, guys, we're in our 30s. Let's like at least bump this up another 50 bucks. It was like 150 until two years ago. Yeah, I think that's about right. I mean, like you're standing.

I'm in another league where it's only 100, and I'm like, guys, can we at least bump this up a little bit? Coworker leagues should be cheap, right? 20 bucks or something. That seems fine. But if you're with your boys, like, you know, you got to be in, like, you got to have one that you could win some good cash. You know, not life-changing, but maybe weekend-changing,

something like that. Yeah, it'd be great. And, yeah, that's about all i got that concludes my weekend and fun and that was a fun segment that concludes this podcast micah it was a fun podcast hope we didn't lose too many listeners because of you and your just reckless takes i do apologize uh for anyone who hates me the guys will be back you know subscribe on patreon i won't be there this week.
