All right, we're back circling back podcast presented by busy hard seltzer. The only hard seltzer with vitamin C and superfood acerola. My name is Will DeFries to my right. Dave Ruff. Hey, Will, I just want to tap in real quick and say, I think it's about to be podcast week. I was laying in bed last night and I was just thinking about like today's episode. I was getting really excited for it because we just have a lot. We have the finals of Bit Madness. We've got White Boy Summer. We've got Jet. It's just perfect, you know? And I was thinking, I was like, man, it's going to be an absolute sprint for the first person to say what they're tapping in. I know. You're at a disservice. Dave did

two bits within the first like seven words of his introduction. My bit to word ratio is pretty high right now. It's way high, yeah. Podcast Week snuck up on me this year. I didn't realize it was – it feels like it was just – The fact that it falls after the Dell match play, it's tough for us because we're so dialed into that and then to roll right into Podcast Week. It's like I wasn't even prepared for it. You know, Micah invented Podcast Week. People forget.

Yeah, but he's retired. Hat tip. People forget. He's semi-retired. Yeah. It was a whole. Hat tip. People forget. He's semi-retired. Yeah. It was a whole week of podcasts across the company.

Thanks for tapping in, Dave. If circling back ever gets canceled for any reason, I think we just have to start calling it tapping in. Do you remember tap out? We've got to be careful.

Last time we had this conversation. Under what circumstances would we lose the IP for this particular property? It's hard to say. It's truly hard to say. Just a hostile takeover. Yeah.

Yeah. I guess so. I'm going to start a brand called Tap Out. We're going to make clothes. I'm going to do one called Hostile Makeover. And it's going to be like you go in there to get your makeup done and stuff, but all the girls that are doing it to you are just really mean. Just really aggressive.

Is this in a Pantera? Yeah. I don't know if that has legs no they have legs oh okay dylan shivery speaking of legs hey oh yeah they have gotten bigger thanks for noticing dave nice stems you know what stem stands for right you know the the young lady the stem young lady she dm me she was like it's was like, I'm going to change my review from a five-star to a four-star because of your comments on STEM. Women in STEM.

That is not how the conversation went. We said nothing about women in STEM. We just didn't even know what it meant. No, if anything, we gave her compliments that she's too good for us. Yeah. She wasn't pleased with me. It was a backhanded gas up.

Not even backhanded. We just gassed her up. Well, joke's on her because I don't think you can even change your reviews. She said, left a five-star review only for you to come for women in STEM. Shaking my head. I'm deducting a star. No, she does not mean that. She does not mean that.

I hope you handled this well. I said, I'm sorry. Let's dox her. Expose her. Don't do that her don't do that don't do we're not a doxing we're anti-doxing

y'all should play are you smarter than a 5th grader then you'll be really sorry is what she said we even we even asked we even said on the thing that she should be the one hosting

for us hosting our our geography bee or something maybe a science fair should we do the science fair and we all come in with a project that'd be tight I can remember some of the ones I did.

Real shitty. Did you do the one where you dropped the egg off of a roof? No, it was a basketball. It was like testing the different levels of inflation versus how high it bounced. It was the ultimate no shit. Mine didn't break. Mine didn't either. I crushed it, dude.

I mean, I crushed the competition. The egg didn't crush. I put the least amount of effort into mine, and I was one of the only ones that didn't break. Mine was tight, dude. I mean, I crushed the competition. Yeah. The egg didn't crush. I put the least amount of effort into mine, and I was one of the only ones that didn't break. Mine was tight, dude. I wrapped my egg in bubble wrap and then put it in a really thick box, and I threw it off the roof. Oh, we couldn't use bubble wrap. That was against the rules. They didn't give us any rules.

They just said you had to drop it off the roof. That was against the rules and regs. Chet? They gave me my egg, but I just took it over At Dylan's house And egged his house Really did It was very rude Which is weird

Because you lived all the way In the Dallas area I didn't even know you then Honestly We didn't know each other But still Just a coincidence Didn't you say you hard boiled

Your eggs beforehand And then just ate them As everyone else Threw theirs off the roof They checked for that man Oh okay Come on You spun the egg

I think so yeah Have you ever doxxed anybody Why would I do that No Dylan said he's anti-doxxed, but pro-doxxed. But he loves doxxins. It's the glizzy of the canine community. I do like doxxins. I saw a dog I've never seen this weekend.

A breed. I saw a Springer Doodle. Is you shitting me? On East 6th Street this weekend. It's brutal. It was wild. It's brutal. It looked just like Rosie, but the hair was just a different texture.

It really freaked me out. And then I started thinking about how miserable of a dog that would be to be around because poodles are already high energy. Springers are high energy. That dog's got to be bouncing off the walls. How did you figure out that that's what the breed was? How did you strike that combo up? I didn't even strike.

You didn't have to. It was just blatantly that's what it was. How about that? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. So when are we talking chat? I mean, we've got to talk chat. We've got a lot of chint on board.

Time out. I'm trying to tap in. That's all I'm saying. Dude, you're trying to tap in? I'm going to tap you out real quick. Yeah. Can we tap you out real quick just for some quick announcements, and then we can tap you back in?

All right. Fair. All right. We've got some quick announcements on here. First and foremost, go follow Circling Back Pod and Washed Media. I will say the Washed Media account is just growing at a rapid clip. Is it? I think we gained like 60 followers last week.

Yeah, we've tapped into something in that thing, man. It's working. We tapped in. Also, go leave a review and five-star rating, especially if you're a woman in STEM. We would love to hear from you. We love you and we respect you, and so we want you to leave that review. Let's have a women in STEM only episode. We'll just hear from them.

It's Monday. You trying to get gross with it? No, I'm not. No, I'm not. I'm trying to nip it in the bud. Will's got the Monday scares. Dang. Got him.

And then we're doing voicemails on Friday. Is it time to recap this weekend in fun? Whoa. Yes. Do you want the theme music for it? Ladies and gentlemen, the weekend. Wow.

Dude, I killed that. Are you kidding me? That's fun. Dylan, what'd you get in? Oh, no, this is presented by Liquid Death, baby. Dude, come on. Liquid Death.

Dude, I love me some Liquid Death. If you're ever trying to murder your thirst, I think there's no better way to do it than grabbing a can, a tall boy of Liquid Death. Imagine your thirst is just sitting there, and you decide to just let it live. Couldn't be me. No. I'm murdering my thirst with Liquid Death. And I'm not humanely putting my thirst down.

It's going to be bloody. I'm taking it out back, and I'm just going to crumple it. Just a crime scene. Just crumple them. My thirst, that is. Just crumple your thirst, yeah. Dude, my thirst is just trying to die. You seen these cans?

You seen them? Dude, they're tall boys. They look like beers. Dude, it's great. Yeah. I get Stone Cold vibes from it. I just want to clack two together and just pour them all over me. I kind of just want to tear...

I did that once, and I realized it was a waste of water. Don't waste water i know i kind of want to tear ass down mopac drinking one of these and just just dare someone like oh this guy's drinking and driving like nah it's just it's just uh psych it's just water dude you just pulled me over for no reason idiot liquid death no seriously don't say that to the cop yeah right right you'll get a ticket then for disrespecting the boys in blue possibly worse yeah worse. Yeah. Sometimes I go to 7-Eleven to go get my liquid death. And sometimes I go into the water section looking for it. And I'm like, wait, am I in the beer section? And I'm like, oh, shoot, that's the liquid death.

That's what's up. That's what it looks like, man. Straight up. I didn't know that every 7-Eleven is officially a crime scene now. Yeah. It's tight. They taped it off. Dude, that's what's up.

I actually keep some caution tape in my vehicle now. So whenever I'm done with one,'s tight. They taped it off. Dude, that's what's up. I actually keep some caution tape in my vehicle now so whenever I'm done with one I just kind of wrap it up. I wrap it all around me. It's just like

a thirst genocide. All thirst is going down. Thirst aside. Didn't you say you've been making something called the Lil Zombie? Lil Zombie, yeah.

Something I've been fucking with. Really? Heavy. Is there a different version called the L Zombie? Yeah. Really? That's the one with tequila. Really? Heavy. Is there like a different version called the L-Zombie?

Yeah. Really? That's the one with tequila. Right, right. Your choice. I've got my proprietary method, but yeah, I've been,

the little zombie was a big hit over the weekend. What's in that? It's just like vodka. Liquid death. You know, to make sure, you know, nothing survives. Well, the sparkling water, liquid death. They have two versions, of course. Liquid death You know To make sure You know Nothing survives Well the sparkling

Water liquid death They have two versions Of course Yeah you do the sparkling Oh I Yeah sparkling You can do the still one Well I feel like

The sparkle Vodka waters can go hard But the zombie The little zombie I should say Check this No lime What

Dude had me dead My thirst that is Had my thirst dead. You couldn't even cut the lime because you were just dead. Yeah. Like, I didn't make it to the final step of the recipe. Oh, my gosh. Dude, that's so sick.

That is sick. Yeah, just completely spontaneously combusted. But then the L's on me just swapped the vodka for tequila. Correct. All right. Interesting. It is. Sheesh. You know, these guys aren't just killing thirst. They're also killing plastic pollution by serving this in cans. It is. Sheesh.

You know, these guys aren't just killing thirst. They're also killing plastic pollution by serving this in cans. I saw that. It's underrated how nice it is to drink just an ice-cold water out of a can. It's not a sensation you get often. No, it's underrated. I hope that my favorite sports teams have liquid death. Otherwise, I'm going to have to smuggle them in, which might be difficult because it is a rather large can.

But I would like to enjoy a ball game with a nice LD. It's a liquid death. Drinking water out of a can, it's more environmentally friendly because those are mad recyclable. If you pollute, fuck you. Thank you, David. I'm glad you took that stance. We're going to send Randy over to your house and talk you out of it with his fists. Yep, and he might even murder your thirst.

Yes. If you're trying to murder your thirst, Liquid Death is available at 7-Eleven nationwide, so go to your local 7-Eleven to pick up some cans. Get a pallet. Just throw it in the back of the car. That puts out the vibe. Oh, yeah. This guy is about to take out all the thirst.

It's truck month. I'm renting an F-250, and I'm just going to fill that thing. Really? Yeah. Just cans. Seems excessive. The death mobile. Do you get the tow package with that?

Yeah. Dude, it's the Cummins diesel. Really? Yeah. That's sick. The capacity is pretty sick, man. I actually got gas at 7-Eleven this morning, and I'm not talking about actual gas. I'm talking about getting that liquid death.

Really? Okay. I actually did get actual gas as well. I'll admit that. That's very cool. Very cool. Dylan, what did you get into this weekend? Thanks for asking. Well, Parks' mother has been out of town all weekend, all week actually,

so I had the homie all weekend long. It was great. We went swimming. You got a swim off. You got to swim off. We got to swim off. We went to a crawfish boil on Saturday, actually. Oh, really? Yeah, we went to a crawfish boil.

So he got to play with a bunch of little kids. A bunch of my friend's kids were running around causing trouble, and that was fun for him. Not much of a crawfish guy, Parks. It's fine. He's six. He doesn't suck the head? His dad loves crawfish, so I was getting in there a little bit. And then, yeah, so Sunday.

Rate the crawfish. Ooh. Ooh, gosh. Crawfish was a 7 out of 10. What was it boiled with? Taters. There were potatoes, sausage. He had Brussels sprouts in there.

Okay. Oh, man. I don't He had Brussels sprouts in there. Okay. Oh, man. I don't do boiled Brussels sprouts. You just don't like the texture? I'm what some might call a brussey snob at this point. Only roasted. That's all I do, man. Or fried.

I'll do fried. I'll do fried. Oh, that's big of you. That's cool, man. No boil, no steam. You'll get the most delicious tasting one. No boil, no steam, David. Why don't you understand about that?

You know, I can't have Brussels sprouts because the diverticulitis, it's a trigger food for me. Is that really? Anytime you bring it up, it's kind of like you're triggering me. I'm sorry. I won't have Brussels sprouts ever again in your presence. Yeah. Why are you disrespecting Dave? I'm sorry.

I just apologize. I don't want to have to treat you like I treat my thirst and murder you. Wow. Okay. Murder! I wouldn't do that. Okay. Can I continue with my weekend? Is that all right with you? Yeah, I'm my thirst and murder you. Wow. Okay. Murder! I wouldn't do that. Okay, can I continue with my weekend? Is that all right with you?

Yeah, I'm sure it's really good. And then Saturday, I got a text from our friend Will DeFries right here sitting to my right. He invited me to lunch on Sunday with his lovely wife, his mother, and his cousin. And I took parts. We got barbecue at Terry Black's. Hang on, I'm looking at my phone. Oh, you weren't even. You weren't even at a town.

I hadn't even hit the road yet. I thought about hitting you, but I was like, you know what? I'm not even going to put this on Dave. You know what? It was a lovely time, a lovely outing. The food was great. The company was even better. Terry Black's, baby.

What'd you go with? What was your cue? Dylan went hard. I got brisket, and I got just a massive pork rib. Oh, yeah. I ordered so much food that I was like, I'm going to take a lot of this home. I didn't. Damn.

I ate it all right there. All the fucking QAnon in the house. I feasted. That's what they were calling you because you had so much Q. Barbecue, that is. That's pretty clever. That's our idea. If we use that in the future, nobody else can use that.

Right, right. Then we got a swim off at Lifetime. Parks loves it up there. A post-Q swim. Yes. Well, there's a few hours. I was going to say, did you wait two hours? A few hours break in between.

You got to add a little bit more when you had some TBQ. I'm so excited to become a dad just so I can do the two-hour joke about swimming. Yeah, that's a good one. Freak the kids out. Yeah. It's really the only reason to have a kid is for that joke. Yeah, that's why I did it. We went to Target and loaded up on swim toys, pool toys, you know.

We had a blast. It was great. What's your pool toy of choice? Mine or Park's? Yours. I don't really play with toys. I'm a noodle guy. I'm a grown man, David.

That's not really a toy. It can be. It's a floating device. How is it not a toy? It's a floating device. Yeah, if you don't spray water out of it with your mouth. That's gross. That's not very sanitary.

Okay. Did you swim in a regular pool or was it a pool filled with delicious liquid death? It was just a regular pool, actually. Have you confirmed that? I requested that they fill one with liquid death. They said it just didn't make sense at the time. Lifetime doesn't import their water from the Alps and murder your thirst with it? No.

That's weird. That's lame. Yeah. What are we paying for? That's weird. That's lame. Yeah. And that's pretty much that's my weekend, guys. Ladies and gentlemen. Ladies and gentlemen. The weekend.

What did you do, Dave? I was in Dallas. He was staying in Dallas. I was staying in Dallas. You linked with KJ. I did link with KJ. I saw that. That photo, everything about it, really drives home the fact that KJ is just much larger than me.

Is he embarrassed, though, to be seen with those arms? So, like, when he walked up and we were sitting down, I saw that he was wearing that T-shirt that was showing off his like very muscular vascular um biceps i was like dude this is gross like i i am almost almost left i was thinking about making an excuse i was like dude what's he doing showing off those guns here yeah but i i was cool with it you know he's a buddy of ours um and he sat down next to me it was cool we had fun little place uh it looks it's someplace called like toller patio it's new in dallas on ross and it's it's like they just bought a lot tore whatever was on it down laid down like 10 000 bags of of you know rocks put up like 100

picnic tables and bought like 50 tvs put it all around the, on, on, on the fences. And then now it's just, they're making money. It's like the, it's like the greatest simple setup. Very simple. Is there an, an indoor is just all out. There's one tented spot and they have one tree in the middle, which here in about three weeks, that's going to be a real problem. Cause you know, in Texas, traditionally it gets very hot.

What's the, what's the bathroom situation they've got a bathroom they have like a little uh a tiny little area where they have a kitchen and okay and stuff but yeah there's the bathroom situation is actually pretty good do they have a moat no well do they have a donut stand that went out of business after a day? No. I'm not saying it compares to Wilmont. That's not what I'm trying to do. Just making sure, man. I'm just making sure. We also saw, I don't know if you saw this,

Aztec guy. He joined us. I did see. What was that feeling like when you saw Aztec? Did you see the Aztec? No, I didn't want to see it today or that day. But he was standing in line. It's a real awkward situation because there's not like a high fence. So it's like you're standing in line and you can see all the people inside having fun.

So you're just watching them and you're just standing there. And you're just like, somebody please leave. But, yes, I got a little pick off of them. People enjoyed that. Sounds like the boys were mobbing. It was a good sale. Intern Klein was there, too. Oh.

Klein? Yeah, how'd you forget me? A bunch of, yeah. It's good. Don't forget me. Very cool. Very cool. Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. Dude, my weekend was litty. Nah, yeah, my mom was in town, as Dylan said. Did a lot of mom hanging. Did a lot of cousin hanging. Shouts to Dana. Had a real good time. And, yeah, Friday we went to Mattel Rancho.

We're not going to talk about the customer service experience there because it was absolutely atrocious. Did you finally get in? Yeah, it only took two hours, which was really cool. After they told us 1-15. We even arrived, like, early so we didn't have to worry about it. What I really enjoyed was when Brett showed up after me, put his name in, and left to go have a drink. And then I stood there the entire time, and then Brett got sat before me. So that was really cool.

Did he have a party of two? Party of three. Did you guys also have three? No. You had four. We added a fourth. That's not right. I'm not pleased with it.

That's not right. The one thing pleased with it. That's not right. The one thing I've learned about Matt Salrancho is that the word sorry is not in their vocabulary. They don't have to apologize. They're just a machine. Yeah, they don't care. Once we hit the two-hour mark, I was like, hey, is there any way that we can just get sets anywhere at this point? 45 extra minutes isn't exactly what we signed up for. Usually they're pretty quick about that stuff.

We're not talking about the service experience there or that Matt's quick about that stuff. We're not talking about the service experience there. Or that Matt's might be going downhill. We're not talking about that. Wow. Look at that. He is turned. Saturday, your boy hits some F1 qualifying. You had to hit the qualies if you're not doing the qualifiers. Are you even watching? Went to Pool Burger. First time

of the weekend. That looked good. I tried the glizzy there. Some call it the El Glizadente. And yeah, I posted a photo of it on my Instagram story and as you would imagine, all the DMs

that I got about it were all about whether or not I was with my co-host Dylan Chivary. Oh. Okay. Because somebody was asking,

they were like, hey, did you see Will's Instagram story? He's Dylan-ing. And I was like, I don't know what that is. And then now...

No one sent you that. A couple people did. The best hot dog I've had in Austin. Absolutely no cap. How many hot dogs have you had in Austin? Well, most of them are wrapped in tortillas. You just said wrapped in foil. You never know.

He might be capping. On God. Was it a God-tier glizzy? God-tier glizzy, for sure. What is your... How do you dress said dog? I dress – I'm a straightforward guy, Dave. Onion and mustard.

Onion and mustard. Thank you. I like that. Yep, yep. It comes with relish. I should have tried the relish, but I didn't even try it. I didn't even open the container that the relish was in. I'm a relish boy.

I should have tried it. I messed up. But overall, it was a great glizzy. And then, yeah, I did some hanging, went out to dinner. I just had dinner reservations with the fam the entire time it was great and then uh yeah yesterday got got some barbecue off with Dylan with the QAnon over here and then uh and uh yeah it was a pretty chill day watched the rest of the F1 I want to recap it on too much dip but I got one more one more lunch with my mom before I had taken her to the airport I'm pretty bummed because as a guy who now has one foot in the F1 water,

I wanted to talk about it with you. I can talk about it from a very base-level knowledge standpoint. I watched some of the qualifier and of the race. I think you need to get to invite Tron after going on Trap Draw. I think you need to give him the obligation of going on too much to talk some F1. Dude, their F1, they're way more into it than I am, though. Like, they're deep. That's why we didn't have them on.

Yeah, that's why. You get the chance to ask them questions and stuff. I feel like a big dummy. You're not going to feel like a dummy, dude. No one's going to think you're a dummy. Speaking of that, man, you know no one disagreed with anything I said on that pod? I just want to, I mean, it's crazy that, like, my Austin takes, as a guy who's only lived here for a handful of years, like, that they were all just spot on.

Well, you didn't grow up here, but you got here as soon as you could. Hey, man. I'll tell you what. That's a cool weekend. I'm sad I didn't get to hang out with Nancy. It's okay. It's okay. She'll be back in six weeks to meet the baby.

Honestly, she was talking a lot of shit about you. Yeah, well, yeah. Makes sense. She doesn't like you. She actually said she was, like, she was talking about it, and she was, like she was like honest she's like have you guys figured out any boy names yet and she was like you better not go with david oh no i was like i know and she was like yeah it's a very common name i heard it too she said she hates it just doesn't like it what about d-man have you thought about doing d-man d-man to freeze or d-mon d-mon might might be the one. Sounds like Demon, though.

Yeah, that might be tough. You copping those new Lil Nas X sneakers, Dylan? Nah, probably not. New sneaker Monday for your boy? Probably not. Dude, they're cheap. They have blood in them. Whose blood is it?

His? Hard to say. Not sure. Satan's blood, right? How do you acquire Satan's blood, though? Satan. So he bleeds blood. I don't know.

I don't bleed my own blood. That's a sick reference. Thank you. Do we need to talk about the ship in the Suez Canal? Hey, look, I don't want to bring it up, but it has been dislodged. That's what I hear. I heard it got stuck again already. As much as I love international trade, I do love a good ship getting stuck in a canal.

It was good PR. They like no pr is bad pr and it was good for the suez to get that kind of you know yeah it caused uh it caused some massive massive problems though unfortunately dude it was a tough day on the job for whoever was driving that boat i good thing i shorted the suez canal did you you? Yeah. You knew it was going to happen? I had an inkling. You had some previous information? Yeah. You track the waterways a lot. Yeah, I love the waterway system. Don't you follow Waterway Tracker on Twitter?

Yeah, it's a good account. I've always been more of a Panama Canal guy, but... Yeah, but the Suez fucks in its own respect. You don't know shit about the Panama Canal, dude. Suez can get the d distribution okay can i be honest i didn't know where the suez canal was until i literally just like looked at it i had no clue where that thing was

yeah it's like we need should we get bread and cheese for that one? Oh, dude, this is tough. This is like when you get exposed on The Bachelor for something you did in the past. If you Google Suez Canal now and you go to images, it's just all photos of this ship just stranded there. This is a tough PR thing for them. Their SEO is just tanked. It's not great. No pun intended.

I mean, that thing's blocked. Look at the route you have to go. My gosh, y'all are so annoying. You love it, dude. That's an important waterway. Should we get Brett in and be like, hey, where's the Suez Canal? He's got to know by now, right? He's got to know by now, right?

I mean, I didn't know before all this shit happened. Suez puts off a South American or Central American vibe. That would throw people off. If there was a gun to my head this weekend and someone was asking me, where's the Suez Canal? a South American or Central American vibe. That would throw people off. If there was a gun to my head this weekend, someone's asking me, where's the Suez Canal? Where is it? Where's the canal?

My liquid death was just holding me hostage. Where is it? Yeah, I would have said South America. The short answer is Egypt. It's Northeast Africa. What's the long answer? But is it a lake or a river? It's like a damned river.

It's a tributary. It's a canal? It's like a damned river. It's a tributary. It's a canal. It's just a canal, David. Are we done with our weekends? Where does the word tributary come from? Because obviously the root word is tribute, right? It's a tribute to Terry. So it's just like a tip of the cap?

It's a dude named Terry. It's just fogs to Terry? Yeah. It's a long-ass canal, man. Oh, thanks, man. Right on Goodwater Way. This canal's no joke. It's Yeah. It's a long-ass canal, man. Oh, thanks, man. Right on Goodwater Way. This canal's no joke. It's big.

It's a big boy. Yeah, it's pretty vital to international commerce. Very. Very much so. Like I was saying, if you can't go through there, the route to get around is like, phew, it's not even worth it. Just pack your shit up. Get out of there, you know?

It's man-made. It's artificial, Dylan. Much like most of the lakes in Texas. All but one. Like the Panama lakes in Texas. All but one. Like the Panama Canal as well. All but one. Can we talk about public rec real quick? But if you put up a dam somewhere, like that's technically,

it goes artificial, but, you know, you just put up it. You just dam some water up. Dude, it's not a good look to ride with dams, dude. What's wrong with dams? Just don't ride with dams, dude. Damn. What did the fish say when he swam into a wall we can move on i'm sorry probably damn yeah i would assume damn is what he said we can move on let's talk about public public wreck real quick you guys ever go out in public and you're like

your joggers and stuff and your sweatpants and you're like oh man like this is comfortable around the house but i feel like i'm kind of like a bootleg human right now look like a little bit of trash dude public rec doesn't do that because like the sweatpants like let's take dylan's sweatpants for example these things are like either way too long or way too short the waist the waist fits like trash like they don't have the right length like sometimes it's just not good to wear them out and like dude dylan's down bad dude yeah your sweatpants down bad. This doesn't need to be about me. You don't even have zipper pockets. You don't even have enough pockets.

Some of your sweatpants I've seen, they don't even have pockets. Glaring like a pocket. They're too hot. They sweat like crazy. They're not breathable. They're just trash. Right. And the beauty of this is that public rec offers a pant that does everything that your sweatpants don't do, Dylan.

No, I get it. That's why, yeah, I love my Public Rec. We are not the same. Okay. Anything, Dylan? No, I just love my Public Rec pants. Well, Public Rec, they make leisure wear and waist and inseam sizes because comfort starts with a better fit. I tried these pants on for the first time, and Sally looked at me and she said,

Who makes those pants? You need to buy more of those. Those look incredible on you. Who makes those? I was like, Public Rec does. She sidetexted me. She's like, Dude, Will's looking slim thick in these Public Rec pants. My favorite pants are the all-day, everyday pants.

They're a more stylish alternative to sweatpants, a more comfortable alternative to jeans. I don't really own jeans. I don't wear them that often. I do have some white jeans that I've been getting off lately, but overall, I I'm not a jeans guy. I like chinos and these public recs. They simulate chinos with just beautiful sweatpants technology. I've told this story a hundred times about how I wore mine out the first night to dinner. Cause I was like, couldn't take them off. And they look like, they look basically like slacks. Were you getting like hella compliments from people? Like, damn, you look sharp. They're like, damn, your ass is absolutely popping in

those things. It's hard not to have a great booty in those things. Bodacious, even. Do you think I'm joking? These things are breathable, stretchy. Moisture-wicking fabric, which is huge for me. Wicks the moisture. Hey, moisture, you just got wicked. Ooh, John Wick. Don't trim your moisture-wicking fabric.

That's already been done. Yeah. Y'all are doing way too much. We're doing a lot. Who's the candle guy? They also have nine different colors, one for each day of the week and then some. Twice on Sunday, maybe even twice on Saturday if you want nine.

And now you can get your whole wardrobe from Public Rec. They've got incredibly comfortable shorts, t-shirts, Henleys. It might be Henley Thursday. Shots of touching base. Polos, hoodies, jackets, and even golf gear. Public Rec rarely discounts, but right now they've got an exclusive offer just for circling backlisters. Go to publicrec.com slash circling and use promo code

circling to get 10% off. That's publicrec, R-E-C, for those out there that don't know how to spell. And use our promo code circling for 10% off. Guys, it's time. We finally get to do it. We're crowning a champion today? We get to crown a champion. Oh, yeah.

Let's go. It's a stacked epi. Oh, it's the most stacked. People are just clamoring for some Chent, but we're going to hit them with this right now. Some Chent. So just to be clear, do you want to explain to people what Chent is? What's Chent? Hey, if you know, you know, man. Remember that phase where you posted something on Instagram and you were like,

if you know, you know. It's like, oh, dude, this guy knows. Yeah, and then Pusha put out his album and it just got even even worse on the timeline yeah the thing is all the people instagramming that like using that caption after push up put out that album it ruined that song for me a little bit yeah that's fair and it's i think it's one of the best songs on the album and i was just bummed. It's only a six-song album, right? Six or seven? It's a shorty.

It's a great album. It's a great album. What's your favorite CD? My favorite CD? Yeah, ever. Like album? Or just like... Disco Compacto.

Probably Doggy Style. Okay. Which is Snoop Dogg. It's the name of an album. You didn't have to say that. It's probably my favorite of all time. Didn't you say that James Blunt's Back to Bedlam is one of your favorites, too? You love that one.

I don't know. I'm not familiar. You're beautiful. Beautiful. It's true. The day that I kind of listened to that in my headphones was truly a dark day. You weren't just listening to it. It was a dark day. Were you down bad that day? It wasn to that in my headphones. It was truly a dark day. You weren't just listening to it. It was a dark day.

Were you down bad that day? It wasn't that one, though. It was his other one. I don't know the other one. Yeah, you're going to have to explain that one. The office one. Oh, the... Goodbye, my lover.

Yeah, Goodbye, My Lover, that one. It's a good song. You were down bad. I was big. It was just a good song. Well, at least all your boys at work roasted you for listening that one. You were down bad. I was big. It was just a good song. Well, at least all your boys at work roasted you for listening to that while you were down bad. Yeah, y'all just piled on. Was that the day that we all went to the hot dog restaurant and didn't invite you?

What? They didn't want any cannibals there. That is true. Is that a rule they have there? That's a weird dynamic. Is that a rule? It's like feeding a chicken. What hot dog restaurant are you talking about is this is a joke i'm not getting l hot dogs i don't know okay glizzy creek down the street glizzy creek's a good one

we've been a frat creek in a while it's because you're calling it frat creek every time you call it that it makes me want to go there probably because turning out of there and trying to get to where you need to go is impossible. It's a beating. And you have to go up 360 and bust a bitch, and it's just like... Really good turkey burgers. Great turkey burger. It's a great spot, and I don't mean to diminish them.

But it is a tough out. Is it time for the final four? These are matchups that I don't even want to confront. I almost don't want to do this today because the matchups are so good that I don't want anything to fall by the wayside. Let's just call it a draw and say we have four winners. No, man, we're good. Can I say something? Yeah.

They're all winners in my book. That's good. No, they're not. Good point. No, they're definitely not, especially one of them. It's terrible. We've got on the left side of the bracket the winner of the rowback region versus the winner of the Vizzy region.

Number seven, the Cinderella story of this entire thing, as this is the only way she can eat fajitas. Versus number one, welcome to Wilmont's. Oh, this is tough. See, this is going to get personal. This is tough, man. I'm just going to get my vote out there because I don't want the onus, but I'm voting for welcome to Wilmont's.

See, and it's got its own audio. Again, shots to Barry Rigby. Yeah, major shots to Barry Rigby. Do we know how many times it's been streamed yet? It's been a lot. How many shots has he gotten since his tournament started? He deserves them, dude. He produced an entire song for the restaurant.

And it slaps. Absolutely. I put it on in the car yesterday as we were going to get coffee, and I was like, do you hate me right now for listening to this song? And Sally goes, honestly, no. Great. Dave, go ahead, man. This is unfair. it's very unfair um as much so like i i generally will

vote for whatever is gonna bring in the most money that's not that's not a good way yeah dude you're voting with your wallet yeah no yeah look trickle down my my vote is up for sale is what i'm saying um but as it's the only way she can eat fajitas is it's just it's my favorite thing that's happened in the last year other than my son being born so it goes yeah it goes number one your son being born number two this woman not being able to eat her fajitas 18 minutes will is that how fast they asked like four different people oh actually there's no other way she can eat fajitas that's what you Will. Is that how fast? That's like four different people. Oh. Actually? There's no other way

she can eat fajitas. That's what you don't understand. What's the only way? Right. Like, I was in Dallas, not to brag over the weekend, as stated in this weekend of fun. I don't know if that's much of a brag

to be in the city of Dallas. You were staying in Dallas. I couldn't find anybody to go Miko with me. And mainly because I wanted to go to the Miko and Allen where this happened. You wanted to go to the site. I wanted to go and I wanted to go to the Mico and Allen where this happened. You wanted to go to the site.

I wanted to sit at the table. I wanted to just recreate it and just sit there and soak it in and see if I could feel the vibe. You wanted to drink five Mambo Taxis. Five Mambo. And then just order a plate of fajitas and not even touch it because the glaring lack of shredded cheese. For me, the seven seed defeats.

Welcome to Wilmonds. Thank you. Onus time, baby! Wow. I know where this is going. I want to be crystal clear about something. I want to be crystal clear. I'm not going to tell anyone how to vote. And I don't mind if you vote against Welcome to Wilmonds.

At no point do I feel any ill will towards anyone voting. I can't be strong-armed anyway. I'm like a vault or something that's really tough. Strong arms are out. Something that's really tough. No one strong arms are out. Yeah. Something that's really tough. No one's doing strong arms anyway anymore, so we're definitely not going to try to strong arm you. I can't be weak-armed either.

Most squads curl in 20s. Okay? Just tone up. All right? I love, as this is the only way she can even heat it, I love it. It's a funny, funny, funny bit. Her face, I can just picture her defeated face right now, and it brings me joy. Pretty lady.

And her dumbass fiancé husband, whoever it was, that put her on blast like that, thinking he was making a point. Pretty lady. Funny, funny. She's a lady. But it's welcome to Wilmonds. Oh, whoa, whoa. Welcome to Wilmonds, Dave.

Welcome to the championship match. Welcome to Wilmonds. Dave. Welcome to the championship match. Welcome to Wilmonds. I contest. Stop the count or whatever. Is this the only way I could have voted? Even though we got 75 million votes. You're doing Trump now. You guys remember that?

He was the president. Yeah. His new social network is dropping soon. Are you guys going to join? Did you see he crashed a wedding at Mar-a-Lago? Yeah. And grabbed the mic and gave a speech. Oh, he gave the speech.

Did you see this? No, I did not see that. And he used it to, like, bitch about Biden. Oh, you can't do that at the wedding. I swear. No, he did. I'm not even making it up. He went through, like, the greatest. He can't do it at the wedding. I swear. No, he did. I'm not even making it up. He went through the greatest. You can't do it at the wedding.

He played the greatest hits. He really did. He went up there. The election and. All right. This guy, man. This guy. I don't think he.

Did he even acknowledge the bride and groom? I don't know. He just went up there and did his material. Got down. I don't think he customized it. Oh, man. What's going on? Ooh, Amber alert.

Oh, God, are our phones about to all go crazy? This is just an alert, David. I thought her name was Brittany. Oh, busted. Ooh, don't tell her. Got him! We got the Miller High Life winner, bracket, winner, side, region, whatever. El Glizadente, number two.

Oh, fuck. It's a tough matchup, though, because it's against the Pon side region, whatever. El Glissadente, number two. Oh, fuck. It's a tough matchup, though, because it's against the Poncho region, number six. Spooky season. This is not a tough matchup at all, actually. It's not a six-season. Again, I tend to vote with what's going to make us the most money. Spooky season's been fairly successful for us. El Glissadente's not making us any money, David.

It's not. But it has made me laugh more than spooky season in the last year. It has brought more joy. Bullshit. So the utility of that is why, number two, the two-seed El Glisadente goes through in the D-man's proprietary bracket. Wow. Very interesting. I didn't see you voting for that one, honestly.

Yeah. Really? Really? Do I even need to vote? You do love a good hot dog. I've had three maybe in the past year. What's your favorite hot dog in Austin? Will's told us his.

Now, what's yours? See, I don't even have one. A Coney? I'm not a big hot dog guy. You just look in the mirror? But, man, that Wagyu Gliz I had in Cabo was unbelievable. I'm telling y'all. Gourmet Gliz.

The Glizidente. You need to go there just for the Gliz. The high-end Gliz over here. It was so good. Gliz of the season, man. Right. See, people thought you were like a Gliz of the people, and then you started getting these gourmet Wagyu glisses,

and now it's like, oh, dude, here we go. He's just another elitist, just a corporate hack gliss. Dylan told me that he doesn't even eat gliss inside of the United States anymore. It's true. It's true. Really. The only Wagyu beef from Mexico. It's the. Really. Only wag you beef from Mexico. It's the only way Brooks can eat a steak.

It's the only way I can eat a poolside hot dog. I'm obviously voting for spooky season. That's a good vote. Of course it is. It's not a throwaway vote. Of course it's a fantastic vote. It's a tough matchup. Spooky season is next level content.

I love it. It occurs during the best time of year. It's just perfect. I don't know if occurs during the best time of year. It's just perfect. I don't know if October's the best time of year. By far. I think there's reason to think that it might not be. There's no reason. I won't hear it.

I have the onus now. The rock has been thrown into my hands. I like these both. El Glizidente, it's a good bit. It's a good bit. Were we a little late to the glizzy stuff? You can make a case that we might have been. As it's the only way we do bits.

Yeah. Come on. And it was, you know, we were in a pandemic when this all happened, so it's understandable that, you know, we might be late to something. All right, you're building me up for a letdown. Go ahead. Spooky season, however, you know, comes around once a year. You wait for it.

It's not the best time of year. It is. Spooky season itself, like the actual show, best time of the year. It's a top five time of the year. Best time of the year. October's okay. Spooky season makes October likable for me. Will hates Halloween. Not a big Halloween guy, but I'm a big spooky season guy. We got Lil' Spooky in the building right now.

It's just a cool vibe. Lil Pumpkin. Who's Lil Spooky? You call me Lil Blumpkin? I think you're Lil Spooky. I might be Lil Spooky. Or am I Big Spooky? I'm Lil Demon.

I'm Lil Zombie. Shouts to Lil Zombie. Zombie. Zombie. Lil Zombito over here. Zombie. Man, who would have thought that you would have crushed that? In your head

You don't have to keep doing it The segment was rolling along very nicely, Dylan We passed you the ball and you just started dribbling I got bad news I think Spooky seems about to be a zombie Because I'm killing it I'm about to get dunked on Oh my god

Lusadente Oh You're ruining my life With this hot dog shit. What are you talking about? I fucking hate it. Oh, man. We got a number one seed versus a number two seed in the Bit Madness Championship.

You're ruining my life. When are we doing the championship? Right now. Right now, dude. Oh. You weren't prepared for this. Well, I thought I didn't think Welcome to Wilmonds was going to win. Guys, listen. There's no way El Closadente can win this thing. I didn't think Welcome to Wilmonds was going to win. Guys, listen.

There's no way El Glizadente can win this thing. I don't know. We got number one. Welcome to Wilmonds versus number two, El Glizadente. Can I just say only one of these bits inspired our video guy on Halloween.

It's true. Okay, so what? Only one of them did. It's true. Okay, so what? Only one of them did. It's true. Oh, like we haven't gotten content out of Welcome to Wilma? No, we have. We have, arguably more, but I'm just saying, based on your logic that Halloween is the best time of year, you should be all in on Glissadente

because it did inspire Randy to go as El Glissadente you for Halloween. So if you want to be consistent with your logic and reasoning, you need to vote for the two seats. Thank you, David. How did El Glizadente even come about? It's a hot dog dress as a president. We went to that party, and they were doing burgers and dogs,

and you ate 17 hot dogs, the last four of which you didn't use your hands. None of what you just said is accurate. You remember that party, though? No. Dude, he had a red Solo cup, and it was just filled with hot dogs, the last four of which you didn't use your hands. None of what you just said. You remember that party, though? No. Dude, he had a red Solo cup, and it was just filled with hot dogs, and he was just eating the tops off of them. You know how people only eat the top of broccoli? There's no hot dog party.

That's how you are with the glitz. No one's throwing hot dog parties. Do people only eat the top of broccoli? That's a thing? Yeah, some people don't like the stem. I was like that when I was a little kid. The bottom. Yeah, the bottom part.

Yeah. You said the top part. Is the bushy part not the top? That's the stem. I was like that when I was a little kid. The bottom. Yeah, the bottom part. Yeah. You said the top part. Is the bushy part not the top? That's the top. That's what I'm saying. That's the part that people eat. Oh, yeah, yeah. Or me at least.

This is all anecdotal. I like broccoli. Broccoli's stupid. Do you remember when Dylan was going through that, he was doing the Atkins diet, and we were out, and he was eating glizzies? He was calling it the Fratkins diet, though. And he would get the bun, and he would eat the glizzy, but just not the bun. So he was getting it and pulling it back and eating it.

It was just a weird deal. I was like, dude, just take it out of the bun, you freak. We asked him, too. We were like, why no buns? He's like, oh, the buns come later. And I was like, damn, dude, that's savage. You're crazy. None of this shit happened, man.

You're going to stop making stories up about me. I didn't do a fratkins diet, dude. You did the frat, man. You're going to stop making stories up about me. I didn't do a Frankenstein, dude. You did the Frankenstein. You were a little low carb. Okay. I think we... So, as we do for Bit Madness, we have to go in alphabetical order by our last names. So, Dylan Chivry has to start off with the voting here.

We've never done it like that. No, that's how it works. We have to go in order by our last names. Who just tweeted this? Tweeted what? Circling back. Did you do this? What?

What is it? It's very topical. Since Will's smirking over here. I don't know how you did this without anybody. It's very impressive. Don't worry about it. If you're wondering what we're talking about, please just go follow. Circling back pod on Twitter. I don't like about it. If you're wondering what we're talking about, please just go follow. Circling Back Pod on Twitter.

I don't like her smiling. I like her smiling. She's very beautiful to me. You think her husband was like, hey, you can just smile more. And that's how he got her. Is this Photoshopped? Yeah. Yes, it's definitely Photoshopped.

I thought there was a second image that was floating around somewhere I didn't know about. When she got the shredded cheese? Yeah. It didn't show that. The cheese showed up. That feeling when the cheese gets here? Dude, I think we need to buy Alyssa this dress and make her be this for Halloween this year. That's pretty good.

Oh, my gosh. That's pretty good. Who are you voting for, Dylan? I am ready to cast my vote. No surprise to anybody here. Shouts to Barry rigby again uh welcome to wilmonds is uh is my champion very cool and will always be my champion no matter no matter how the rest of this plays out number one in my heart that's big of you not to vote for yourself that's very it shows it shows some character qualities that i respect in you. See, it's not for myself.

I mean, that's not me. It's just a – No, like presidents, they go in and they vote and stuff. More Randy than me. He dressed as that for Halloween. You're El Glissadente, which is cool. Yeah, and because I'm next in alphabetical order, I didn't want to give the onus to Dave for any reason at all.

I'm going to vote for Welcome to Wilmont since it's my livelihood. Just kidding. Really? Wait, what are you voting for? El Glisadente! Why you do that to me, dude? You were genuinely excited. I was so happy for a second.

No, it's my livelihood, but at the same time... This bit has to die. No, at the my livelihood, but at the same time— This bit has to die. No, at the same time, we don't have— No. Like, the tax implications that we haven't really figured out yet in our second year of business, it's been very difficult on us. And so I need Welcome to Wilmont's to die sooner than later so that the government doesn't come after me. Dude.

And so, you know, Ashton Kutcher's not here, but you just got punked. So— You did get punked. This bit's got to die, guys. If it dies, it's coming back as zombie glissadente. It's just going to be way better. Is those the things? The El Zambadente?

That's not a thing. I don't know. It's a dead presidential hot dog you're talking about. Correct. Hypothetically, it hasn't died yet. Dylan, just to be clear, we don't know what's going to win. You voted for Welcome to Wilmont's. I voted for El Glissadente.

We don't know what Dave's going to do over here. You're the Wilmonds guy. If you're not going to vote for it, then Dave's not either. He's the Wilmonds guy. This is essentially a popularity contest. I'm a big fan of El Glizadente's tax reform, and I think that it might benefit

Welcome to Wilmonds moving forward. I'm trying to vote for... I'm voting with my wallet. I think El Glizadidente has got some interesting ideas. He doesn't have any ideas. He's got the Chamber of Commerce's seal of approval. This is tough because, I mean, it's basically like a popularity contest between Will versus you.

Dylan, you, of course, El Glizadene. Welcome to Wilmonds being Will. So don't read too much into this, but I'm going to have to vote for – Don't do it, David. Don't do it. Don't do it. All right. I'm going to go against every fiber of my being.

I'm going to do Dylan a solid. The winner, Bit Madness, is El Glizadente. Why? Match that one shining moment button. That's our one shining moment. Unfortunately, in this case. The loser. Why did y'all have to do this?

We didn't do it, dude. The people voted. Why'd y'all do it? The people voted. loser why y'all to do this we didn't do it dude the people the people voted no y'all voted no the people voted and it's el glissadente y'all voted it through every time dave's tweeting he's i'm not tweeting no dave can't tweet dude people have to listen to this they can't they have to listen to this in order to find out who wins we can't spoil it early this is bullshit why don't make it big on there. No, make it bigger. Is there an emoji we can put on there on the bracket? This is bullshit. I don't know. Like, I'm not a hot dog.

I mean, no. El Presidente is a hot dog. I don't like hot dogs more than the average person, really. There's never a time that I've seen a photo of you photoshopped onto a hot dog where I'm not laughing my ass off and just really enjoying it. I don't laugh at any of them. I laugh at all of them. I'm making up for the lack of laughter from you. Anytime someone tags me in any hot dog-related content, I ignore it.

Cat Pat actually sent us some hot dog-related content while we were doing this. That's how strong the brand is about Gryzodente. Very cool, Cat Pat. Very, very cool. Dylan, you cutting the net down? Why would I do that? This is your moment, Dylan. Take it in.

No, it's not. Take it in. Are you crying? Dude, don't cry because it's over, man. Smile because it happened. Don't cry from it. Bet you guys let me down so much. He's taking the net down.

He's handing it. He's got his hands in the air. He's draping the net over the top of his hot dog. Oh, he's tearing up. His mustard hands are slipping. The hot dog flavored sweat beads. Would you even tear that, like go up and climb and cut the net down, or would you just go up and hang on the rim and cut it down?

I'll do that, yeah, for sure. This is very cool. This is very cool that the champion of the 2021 Bit Madness bracket is the number two seed, El Glizadente. It's beautiful. This podcast stinks. I love this podcast. This is my favorite podcast, actually.

This is your moment, Dylan. Take it all in. And, hey, Will, gracious and defeat. Thank you. I voted it down every round of this tournament. Every round. That's got to be a first. I think even back to the first round.

That's the staying power of El Glisadente, though. Once you think they're out of the game. It's you guys just sticking it to me. They have no give up. Quit is not in their vocabulary. They're always playing catch up. I fucking hate you, dude. It's pretty unique.

El Glizadente is playing from behind a lot. Uh-huh. Always playing from behind. Trying to get in those buns. Before we do the chant, can I run to the men's room? Yeah. Sorry. We can do a little tinky break, Dave.

Thank you. No, and hey, hey, again. Fogs. He tipped the cap. You're the first to congratulate me. Hey, while Dave's gone, let's talk about our friends over at Sun Basket. Okay. The winter blues might have your kitchen game feeling kind of blah.

We're just kind of right now transitioning. The state's up north. I mean, they're still getting some cold weather. We got some snow in Michigan the other day. It's not great. Yeah. But we can let Sun Basket put a little spring in your mix. Get healthy, delicious meals delivered right to your door each week.

Because if your days are anything like mine, you wake up, you have breakfast, you do a little work. Suddenly it's dinner time. You got zero meal plan. I've been doing this a lot lately. I've been busy. I got a pregnant wife. I've been moving. My mom's in town. Like it's just been a lot. And all of a sudden it's like 730 and I'm like, oh man, I need something to eat.

Michelin Award. You know, that's the same as the tigers actually a lot of people don't know that it's look it's no secret that uh i'm not a master chef you know i'm not

i'm not great in the kitchen your 2020 new year's resolution was to get better in the kitchen and technically i did get better you improved yeah i improved that's good marginally so for me sun basket is just a godsend. It's what I need. I got some new heat in the mail from them lately. Moroccan Spice Filet Mignons with roasted spring vegetables and chermoula. Are you kidding me? Think about that. I know you're a filet boy, but have you ever had Moroccan Spice Filets?

I don't think I have. Exactly. Shrimp paella with fire-roasted tomatoes and bell peppers. And then a crowd favorite, the cauliflower mac and cheese. Your boy got sesame-crusted fish nuggets with orange-glazed veggies. Look at you. Are you kidding? Look at you.

There we go. I'm very stoked. Let's go. Sunbasket, baby, let's go. Korean fried rice, Dylan. Well, we have a special guest in the building. I think he came in for Brett's breaking news, but unfortunately, we're going to drag him to some chint.

Yeah, it's time for chint. My bad. I was looking at the rundown, and I saw- We skipped ahead because he took a little pee-pee break. Got it. Okay. Very hydrated. I'll fuck off over here for a little bit while you guys-

No, no, no. Feel free to not fuck off. Did you see Bit Madness? What happened there? I did. I did. Dylan, let me be the first to congratulate you on a Bit Madness victory. Nope.

Hey, people can honestly say you're the best to ever do it. So, you guys hear about this Chet Hanks? He's pivoting. I saw this video hit the timeline while I was at Matt's El Rancho on Friday. Did you tap in? No, because I could tell just based on... So, Shitto tweeted it, which always means that there's going to be something good. With no caption, just a video. So you knew you're in for a treat.

And then I saw that it was Chet Hanks, and I was like, okay, I can't open this video right now because it needs my full attention. On Saturday morning, I woke up and I immediately just went all in on Chet. Dave has called it Chent. Chet content. Right. It's just a way to make it a little bit quicker, so it moves along the storyline. Combining two things. And here you

spend a minute explaining what it means. Dave, can you tap in real quick and explain what White Boy Summer is for all the people out there that might not know white boy summer it's not it's not like Trump NASCAR

it's it's like Chet it's like John B it's like Jack Harlow right so don't get it twisted Dylan right

I don't like that NASCAR caught that stray by the way i got some good friends into nascar okay but you know what he means i do yeah i think i get it without that line it's yeah and as a guy who's in the f1 now it's like i could see myself getting into nascar down the road i was a little fuzzy on like what white boy summer entailed. I needed rules around it because I follow a lot of rules. Rules and regs. Yeah, for sure. Yeah.

Well, tap in and tell us what they are. Well, do you want to hear? I'll let Chet tap in. We actually have Chet here, so he can explain some of the rules and regulations that he initially set out for. You got chanks in the building. Here we go. Yeah, this isn't playing. That's very cool. Very cool. Dude, i'm killing it woke up this morning internet going mud again sheesh um but she's just want to drop a few uh

rules and regs for the white boy summer okay rule number one uh to all my white boys out there no plaid shirts okay i can't be looking like a picnic table out here boys white boy summer. Okay, rule number one to all my white boys out there. No plaid shirts. Okay? Can't be looking like a picnic table out here, boys. Damn. You know what I'm talking about. Leave that shit at home. The Vineyard Vines and you know, Ralph Lorden or whatever the fuck.

Leave that shit at home. Dylan, I mean, does this include shackets? He didn't say anything about shackets. Yeah, but my shacket Okay, plaid shirts. Yeah, but my shacket is not plaid. Randy wore a plaid shirt in the studio today for maybe, like, one of the first times I've ever seen him. Like, are you doing that because it's spring, Randy, and it's not yet summer?

He's nodding yes. He just shrugged. Here's some further ones. A black tee, a white tee. You know what I mean? Keep it simple. Rule number two. No sperry top siders.

Whoa. That's not the kind of white boys we're talking about. NF. NF. Get yourself some Vans, some Bucks, some Jordans. I'm not really a sneakerhead, but, you know, feel it out. Is that the biggest shocker? That Chet's not a sneakerhead?

Absolutely insane that he's not a sneakerhead. His dad is Tom Hanks. He presumably has access to all the funding, and he's not just impulse buying shoes. That actually is quite baffling. If you had told me, like, hey, we're going over to Chet Hanks' house tonight for a party, I'd be like, oh, I want to see that closet. He's probably got boxes upon boxes of shoes that I've never even heard of.

He's definitely got the Lil Nas X ones. Will you guys let me read the caption for the original Instagram post? Yes. The original video. It says, is it about to be a hashtag wipe with Summer or am I tripping? Tag a real vanilla king. Okay. Hashtag respectfully. I somehow missed that.

I'm really glad he included that. Tag a real vanilla king. Not a fake one. Somehow I did not get tagged. That's interesting because neither of y'all tagged me.

Sorry. Do you want to hear the last bits? Here we go. There'll be more rules coming. Oh, yeah, yeah. No calling girls smoke shows.

Oh. That term is it's played out, dude. They can't just see a hot chick and be like, did you see the fucking smoke show, dude? Fucking smoke, dude. That's over with. Nailed that. Alright. Church, I feel like he's talking directly to me in 2008. His delivery is very strong. He has presence.

He has IG presence. Wow. I found John B. on Instagram, by the way. I see. When he first said John B., I thought we were kicking it back to OBX. I thought we were going to Outer Banks, baby. You thought, Brett? You're an OBX guy, right? I love Outer Banks. I'm excited for Season 2.

I don't know when Season 2 is coming out, but it's the show when I go on Netflix. I just want to see Season 2 coming soon. I don't know why, but I fell in love with Outer Banks two months after it was cool. I told you. Outer Banks, Jet Hanks. Outer Hanks?

Are you dropping bars? Give me the beat. Yeah. Okay. Drink up in my cup. No. I was really hoping we could get Dave to freestyle for the first time ever on the pod. You're not getting post-Dallas weekend Dave freestyle.

I'm not operating. You're not there right now. No, I'm at about a 90. That's understandable. How do we see this panning out, White Boy Summer? I don't know. I'm hoping that he has so much hype so early on, and he's posting a lot about it.

I don't want the burnout. I want it to last. I think he said that country music is in for White Boy Summer. I also said just because you listen to country music doesn't make you an ignorant racist person. He said being ignorant and racist makes you an ignorant racist person. That's true. Respect. Respect. He listens to ignorant and racist makes you an ignorant racist person. So that's true. Respect.

Respect. He listens to all types of music, man. He's Chet Hanks. He's multifaceted as he says. Um, people were trying to, people were trying to get him to cancel backwards hats.

He wasn't having it. He's like, nah, nah, he will shut that down. Dad hats. He shut it down real quick. Did he shut down dad hats?

No. He said that like – he kind of insinuated that dad hats were like acceptable but not ideal. What other – what's he wearing? He's just wearing Callaway like tour hats. He's ripping on all these like things and he's doing it all while wearing like – I love Callaway but just a generic golf hat. Dad hats with the long strap on the back sticking out. That's the wave right now.

That's been my thing. I know. Accidentally. I know. Ross is doing it big time right now. Dude, Ross is on my shit, bro. Dude, did he swagger jack you? Dude, he swag jacked me.

I'll have to go back on him. Yeah. It's Pod, not him. Right. Yeah, we'll go on him. Explosive! That sounded weird. Wow, okay. Sure. Did you see they did a bone zone? Yep. on him and yeah it's pod not him right we'll go on him that sounded weird wow okay sure did you

see they did a bone zone yep sure did were you upset that you weren't there because you would love the bone zone you can't hire j-bon without expecting a bone zone to pop up every now and then true big facts i know i'm not upset i'm upset that wasn't there yeah facts only yeah i i don't think we need to speak about white boy summer for too long because i think that we're it's going to be a running theme i think we should just have like white boy summer moments throughout the entire summer he just wanted to bounce it off of us yeah just to see like kind of feel us out see like what we were thinking he just needed to tap in real quick i'm dreading the day when i check his story and like he says he's tapped out

he's a guy i'm tapping out of white boy summer it's gonna be a tough day so he's tapped out. He's like, I'm tapping out of White Boy Summer. It's going to be a tough day. So he's doing the patois thing again. Did he ever stop? I thought he did. I'll be honest, I didn't start following him on IG until very recently, like two days ago. Internet gone mad. Yeah.

I thought he got backed out of the paint on that, but apparently not. I watched a couple more of his posts. Sheesh is a recurring thing that he says. Sheesh! I kind of like it. Yeah, it's good. I mean, I hate to say it, but I think Chet Hanks is like a top 10 internet personality at the moment.

Yeah, we're not there yet, but like, he's about to get the Twitter notifications nod from me. I want to know every single piece of content he's thrown up

for the next three days. Internet gone mad. Oh, good. Did I send it to the Too Much Dip group? But the, apparently he did a song for his college

at some point. Northwestern. Is it Northwestern? Shots of the Wildcats. And, boy, it's something. I didn't even click on that because I didn't want to. I get it. But I don't know how this guy makes his money.

Obviously, like, I mean, what does he do? Chet? Yeah, what's Chet do? It helps that he has a dad who's, like, considered to be on, like, the Mount Rushmore of actors. Oh, wait, he's hawking something. He's got, like, a private actor's, like, how to make a living as an actor. And I feel like one of the steps in it is to have a dad who's potentially the greatest actor of his generation. Yeah, that helps.

That's step one, which most people can't identify with. Question. So Colin Hanks looks nothing like Chet Hanks. Correct. Do they have different mothers? Do we know? Hard to say. Is Colin Hanks doing a 60-day challenge right now?

No, but Colin Hanks also is very excited for summer to start. Good. As he alluded to in a Twitter post. Good. Yeah. Will, you want to hit me that beat real quick? I'm going to give you some Chet Hanks bars real quick. Okay.

White kicks, purple kush. This is college hitting blunts after hitting books. A little off beat here. It's all right. Got the keg up in the house. That's fratting. It's fun in Evanston. When you see me, you know all the time.

Have a good time. Smile back. Everybody in this bitch is a wildcat. Damn. These aren't exactly the best bars. What if they went to DePaul and they just happened to show up at the party? I'm vibing with it, though.

Honestly. I mean, I fuck with it heavy. Yeah. Okay. What was the DePaul joke? It went right away. I mean, I fuck with it heavy. Yeah. Okay. What was the DePaul joke? It went right away. Everyone at that party might not be a wildcat. Like, what if you invited some girls from the school over?

You know what I mean? You got to think there were some randos. Sheesh. Sheesh. Is it time for Brett's breaking news? Man. You guys ready? Let's fucking go.

Well, just got back from the board meeting this morning. Q1 board meeting. I didn't get that. It was just we were tick-flipping in the parking lot. Oh, okay. Oh, I see. Okay. They had some critiques for the three of you guys.

Okay. So I just wanted to go over them on air, if that's cool. Wow, you're kind of blindsiding us. But yeah, sure, go for it. Well, it was important that we get the message out here. Who do you want to go first? Dave, Dylan, Will, or Intern Klein? Dylan's riding a pretty big wave right now.

No, I've been crushed already once today, so go ahead and just pile on. Sure. I'm already down bad. You're not bad. They just... I'm down bad, though. The board wants to take your Instagram and Twitter in a different direction, Dylan. We've been talking about this a lot behind your back. Really?

So they want it to grow instead of, oh, dude, Will. Dude, he just murdered you like you were thirst. How about? They were saying, so you have more stories up than a Harry Potter series. And you have six grams this year to Will and Dave's three. Oh. So you're cruising. 2020 is the year of Dylan Dave's three. Ooh. It's your cruise. 2020 is the year of Dylan Shepard.

Hey, get your numbers up. Dude, I've said recently that I want to start gramming more. I'm so gun-shy. What's that song? Get your numbers up. Get your numbers up. The problem lies with your Twitter, though. Oh, yes.

You're not tweeting enough. They said too much humpback whale content the last 30 days. Bullshit. And you're absolutely getting fucking smoked ratio-wise. Yeah, your ratio is trash. I have noticed that you've been getting ratioed a lot. Somebody ratioed you. You see me ratio him back? I ratioed him like 100 times over.

It's like going... I was sick. You chose my tweet that was not meant to do numbers, and you ratioed it into oblivion. Can I just say that the ratio... You're like the Matt Stairs of ratioing. Will's ratio bit has made me gun-shy to reply to people's tweets because I don't want to accidentally ratio them

and be like a dick. Now that my mom's out of town, like, next weekend, I'm going to pick a target. It might not be in the WASH Media Network. Do Dave next. I think I just want to...

I want to ratio someone outside of the network. Do one of the brunch guys. Should I start? No. You can't. Dude, ratioing Pete Blackburn is hard.

He puts up a Bruins tweet and all of a sudden he's got 400 likes. Dude, you would be. He's doing numbers. You're going. It's like, you know. And DJ's too nice. I can't do that.

And funny. That dude's funny on Twitter, too. I can't do that. Will, you want to go next here? I guess. They had concerns about your personal life. Oh, really? More specifically, your new crib.

What about it? They said the fact that it's entirely covered in hardwood floors is incredibly dangerous and slippery for both your pregnant wife and your dog. And you. I wake up every morning. I don't have to set an alarm anymore. I just wake up to Rosie click-clacking on the wood floor. They also said your lack of a couch is concerning.

No, the couch has arrived. Yeah, the couch is there. Oh, if you want to send an internal memo to the board, the couch has arrived. Yeah, couch is there. Oh, if you want to send an internal memo to the board, the couch has officially arrived. It got here Thursday evening and I'm a very big fan of it. I've been spending a lot of time on the Chase Lounge. You need to TikTok you doing... Call me Busy Chase.

That's pretty good. You need to TikTok you doing the Tom Cruise floor slide from Risky Business. We can get a talk off. Little Seeger. Seeger shouldn't be a problem. In your undies. In your undies. With an Oxford.

Okay. And your dog, too. Chet said those are out, though. No bottoms. I can't do the Oxford. They also mentioned they haven't seen you with an IPA in ages, which is concerning. He's off IPAs.

I've retired from IPAs. That's not your brand. It's the only way you can enjoy beers. I will say I had one sessionable IPA this weekend, but it was I immediately realized why I've retired from IPAs, so I got to chill. But if the board wants me to drink more IPAs, I can do that. We haven't been to Pine House in a minute.

That's because the vibes went downhill after COVID, man. Let's get the vibes back up. We can. Dave, here's your notes here. They mentioned being a cooler neighbor to your boys Colt and Tyler over there. Okay. You're giving off narc vibes.

Are you tattling? Are you telling tales out of school? I don't think I am. I try not to, but you know. He mentioned something about finding a twisted T in your recycling one time and you went and told his parents. No, I called the police. Yeah. You're a narc.

Did you get the car towed? You playing Brantley Gilbert in the F-150 at 3 a.m.? I'm not playing Brantley Gilbert. You were singing along instead of... No, I wasn't. I don't even have a truck. I'm relaying the message, Dave. I'm sorry.

I drive a sedan. They also said to lengthen your back swing, your sweater jacking, Jon Rahm. Wow. You know I have trouble with that. You know I have trouble with that. It's just Q1 critique. Look, I would love to have more backswing. I don't.

I think you're doing fine with it. This feels a lot like you're kind of just patting me on the head right now i'm like yeah man good job you're doing great with what little back swing you have it's kind of like when i told chris harrison no one does more with less than facetime yeah he didn't like that he didn't it probably came out wrong it's on me mountain lion's trending right now in texas are you critiquing yourself oh i know why i saw why what about any brick critiques i just gotta be better i just gotta be better that's what they It's trending right now in Texas. Are you critiquing yourself? Oh, I know why. I saw why. What about any Breck critiques?

I just got to be better. I just got to be better. That's what they said? Yeah. Anything else for me? No, that was it. Anything good I'm doing? No.

They didn't really give us anything good. Fuck, it's just negative. Yeah. What kind of board is this? You see this mountain lion, Will? Mm-mm. He's playing the cup game like a regular household cat would. It's a domestic kind of ball. They hide a toy under a big bucket, and you switch it up on them.

It's pretty cute, man. Did he win? He picked wrong first. What an idiot. Yeah, yeah. What an idiot. The Mountain Lion. Two cats, one cup.

David. They did mention Intern Klein. We haven't seen him in the office in a minute, but they said he's got to be a better teammate on the Call of Duty battlefield. I don't know much about this. Really? Wow, I don't know. I didn't get to play last night.

Sheesh. Is he sandbagging? I don't know what he's doing. He's been a really good teammate for me watching the Challenge. I text with him about the Challenge weekly. So if you guys want in on that, you can start watching the Challenge with me. New season's starting soon. He snipes a lot?

I don't know if that's the correct term. Yeah, we call him Wesley Snipes when we play. Gotcha. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. That's big. Well, is that all she wrote, boys? Yeah, that's all I had.

Randy doing a great job. Board's very happy with Randy's performance. Well, it's been real. It's been a fun one. Is it time to tap out? Let's tap out performance. Well, it's been real.
