all right we're back circling back podcast coming to you live from austin Texas. My name is Will DeFries. To my left, David Roth. You know, I'm beginning to think that the Daily Star is not my best source of news. I like to peruse a number of outlets to see like, hey, is anything important out there? Like, what's going on with this train derailment? What's going on? Is the Daily Star going to have some important stuff on that? The train breakup instead i see at the top of their page living his best life stoner wwe stars wild new life with twerk queen adult model wife

and weed business shout out to rob van damme rvd i mean Dave, the mainstream media is not covering the train derailment. So why would you think that the English media would? You know what I mean? I got some questions as to whether she's the actual twerk queen. But that's fine. We'll save that for another day. But thanks for having me on. You got another one for us?

You might be interested, Dylan, in learning a little North Korea news. You know how I feel about North Korea, man. No. Why don't you explain it to the folks at home? Can you tell You know how I feel about North Korea, man. No, why don't you explain it to the folks at home? Yeah, can you tell us exactly how you feel about North Korea? You know, I just... I'm pretty into that region a little bit. Pretty into that region a little bit. Which region exactly?

Like, you got South Korea, and then if you keep going north a little bit, you'll run into North Korea. Maybe they're just talking about the beautiful landscape. Are we sure they're not just talking about the north part of South Korea? Like that song. Yeah, exactly. West Virginia.

We didn't need to sing it. Well, I've got some bad news, Dylan, because I know you've been looking forward to going and checking this place out. This is Pongyang. checking this place out. This is Pongyang, North Korea's Benidorm resort built on ex-missile site is swamped in human poo as hotel plan axed.

So cancel your trip, buddy. It's on human poo-poo. I get the feeling that the infrastructure of North Korea is not up to standard. I recently was watching... I don't know why.

I was recently watching the movie starring James Franco. I don't know why. I was recently watching the movie starring James Franco. I watched this on Friday night. What's it called again? The Interview. The Interview. I want to say The Dictator.

It's so fucking funny. The Interview. It's an underrated funny movie. It's absolutely underrated. James Franco kills it. He's really good at it. And the fact that it's on Netflix right now, I feel like I'm just right for putting this on randomly um but it's really changed the way that i look at north korea's grocery stores like i will always imagine that every grocery store is a fake grocery store that's

long been rumored to be the case there sorry spoiler alert for anyone out there who hasn't seen the interview or spoiler alert if you're if you plan to go to north korea and enjoy some of their local um produce do you think you'll ever go to North Korea, Dylan Chivry? Am I right? Probably not. After what happened to our friend Otto Warmbier and others who have gone over there and didn't go so well for him. It's a very terrifying place.

Yeah. I think, honestly, without the dictatorship and stuff, if they got rid of all that, I think it could be a hella chill spot. I don't know if this is the resort that Dave was talking about, but they have a ski resort town. Yeah. No, you can't ski on human poo.

Right. Yeah. You could. There's enough. If anybody would know, it's y'all two. Y'all are the ski guys. You never tried it on human poo, David. Hey, I got one more here.

This is from the celeb tab scooby-doo star sarah michelle geller strips totally naked as co-star says god damn like recently she did i don't know i didn't click it how are they gonna how are they gonna hit her with the the scooby-doo star moniker when i mean that that's not the first thing i think of when i think of sarah michelle geller i think cruel intentions oh she was she was good in that she was her intentions were cruel spoiler alert it's been like 20 years that movie was pretty twisted yeah there were some girls in high school who were obsessed with it so i've seen it like 50 times because i was trying to simp you know you you're trying to get in there yeah oh dude well not like in there like into like the mix of talking to the chicks exactly it was like if i need to watch cruel intentions for the hundredth

time in order to talk to this girl i'll do it i'll do it well yeah i feel like i saw this or skulls or skull and bones and cruel intentions on like back-to-back weekends. For us it was... Feels like it's the same time period. It was Cruel Intentions and I Know What You Did Last Summer. Repeat. That was a good one. It was fine. You're a big Jennifer Love Hewitt guy? Yeah. Most people are.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think so. Big crush. Big crush at one point. Shout out to Maxim Online. Can't hardly wait, man. She was flames in that. Yeah. Big crush. Big crush at one point. Shout out to Maxim online. Can't hardly wait, man. She was flames in that. What can't you wait for? It's a movie called that.

Can't hardly wait. Who's Max in my mind? We should do like a recap pod where we do like older movies that are really popular. That would be a good one to start with, honestly. Yeah. If she was in it. Yeah. Dave? that would be a good one to start with honestly yeah if she was in it yeah dave i do want to do a re-watch of the skulls the skull and bones skulls it's just called skulls skulls why i don't know i just it's it's a pretty preposterous movie the best way to re-watch

that movie is by watching the first half and then turning it off you don't like the duel at the end i would rather be left with no resolution than to watch the second half of that movie and see what transpires i feel the same way about the beach starring leonardo dicaprio i got some heat for saying that movie sucked the other day from a friend but the first half of that movie is awesome awesome up until it got weird. They start boning in the tent, and then suddenly it turns into a video game, and everyone's like, what? And then when he gets back to land,

and he fills out his email address, it's like, I don't remember what his name is, but his email address is literally like... Let me see. His name in this movie... Michael Paulson. His email address is literally like mikeataol.com, and I would really like to know how he got that email address back in the mike at aol.com and i would really like to know how

we got that email address back in the 90s damn if i got stranded on an island with leo i don't think i'd be that upset no no until you turn 26 you'd have to cut me in half you'd get two 18 year olds okay i see what you're saying get it it. Cause I'm 36 right now. Yeah. You get it there. Yeah. Can you, I don't know if it would work like that. Do you think that he would have a relationship with my upper half or my bottom half first?

Ooh, I would start at your bottom. Probably your disgrace. What? Let's do it. Don't be gross, dude.

Don't be gross. Anyone else in here? I wish we were doing love island today yeah last night's episode was straight gas it was dude i almost almost watched uh today's episode this morning before i came in but i can't watch it with the kid hearing you say that dave is music to my ears because there have been so many times in my life where i have woken up and decided to watch an episode of love island in the morning i have a take i think we all might have a take that i'm gonna do this with that's me walking it back a bit i did i need to scale back some scale backs i did last episode dave you see what i'm doing here see the fingers well it depends we don't know which direction you're actually supposed to be going backwards oh okay

yeah this is forward yeah i think that's kind of a hallmark of our of our little podcast that we do on it is that we there's a lot of people that we ride for that maybe we shouldn't or we shouldn't have uh been riding for one take though that i had i'm gonna do this with which is sprint forward because i was dead on um this is me sprinting forward on a take. Most people listen to it. They don't watch the show. But look. I don't care if I was wrong about any of my Love Island takes or if I was right about them.

I will be backing them up with justification no matter what. You notice the fingers are going faster when I'm sprinting forward on a take. Yeah, we know how sprinting works. Yeah. You're really painting a picture there. Didn't you work for Sprint at one point? Singular. Oh.

Before they were purchased by AT&T yeah i always hated sprint never had it but i always i think as my family was at&t i was like oh sprint sprint was very blue collar my boys had sprint and sprint got access to the razor uh before at&t did in our area and i was like what the hell like why did the bootleg people get it i had a razor and then what i did was i switched from motorola to a prime co-found why would you do that i don't know oh i sold so many razors man oh my god scooters or everyone everyone who came in there hey you got you got that new razor like yeah dog i got you come on which one the silver or the black or the pink all of them all of them i think they started only silver, and then they released the other colors later on. The black was so much more swag than the silver razor was.

It was gas. If I saw a girl with a pink one, I was like, man, she bad, but she high maintenance. You had to hit him with the Custo. We used to get free phones all the time. I had a friend who would Custo your phone if you needed it. I brought the BlackBerry for a minute. I did too. I had the Pearl.

I was like, what am I doing? This is the worst phone ever. I had the Curb. Are you kidding me, dude? I judge anyone that didn't have a blackberry catch me on bbm curve is what i did to your girl when she came at me that time you curved her that was nice of you yeah that was hell of respectful wait isn't that rude no i think if you curve doesn't curving someone mean that you if you avoided their advancement yeah that's how i understand yeah because i was like oh get out of here yeah it was rude to her, baby, but it was respectful to Dave since it was his girl.

Yeah, you're not understanding this. Okay, you're welcome for curving it, Dave. We were talking about curve last night at dinner at Valentine's Day. You guys familiar with this holiday? We were talking about how my dad used to give me Valentine's Day gifts, and it was always Tommy Hilfiger cologne and deodorant, so I would smell good for the ladies over Valentine's Day. Yeah. It was a swag move from him.

He was trying to set you up, man. I never had Curve, though. Never had Curve. My dad took me straight to Tommy Boy. David's Cool Water. Cool Water and then Aqua DG Oil. Oh, yeah. That's swag.

You hit him with that Italian drip drip. I felt like I was high end. Oh, yeah. Yeah. When I opened the Tommy Hilfiger felt like I was high end. Oh, yeah. When I opened the Tommy Hilfiger box, I was like, oh, my God. This is the nice part of the mall. At one point, I got Tommy Bahama. I would just walk around smelling like I was 68 all the time.

Coconuts in Rome? Yeah. It was sick. Yeah. Did you smell like a crawfish boil? Yeah. Ew. I smelled like I just left a casino down about $1,200.

No, the Tommy Bahama would leave you with a certain scent of a 68-year-old man, like you said. Yeah. But a man of class. Well, yeah. If you guys want to hear some 68-year-old men talk about Love Island, boy, do I have a podcast for you. The Love Island Boys debuted this month. And yes, we'll be covering it every week. It's trending. That means that for optimized backers, optimized backers, they get three episodes a week.

The show. Okay, not our show, but the show Love Island UK is so good. I cannot recommend a reality show more. We had a genuine conversation this morning in the bullpen about how this is a legitimately strong cast. Dave said he wanted to, like you just said, he woke up wanting to watch the next episode. Like, calm down.

Dave woke up feeling dangerous. Pace yourself, dog. Look, I've been following the metrics on this show, and it's trending. Where are you finding these metrics? Nielsen. I was just looking at a com score what isn't that a thing what was the one that we used to try to calm score really expensive to have but like you needed it if you wanted to get big deals and blogs yeah not a racket where all my blogs at you know about that com score y'all i won't at one point our comp scores absolutely

bussing but then the company went under years later famously famously yeah young dumb and full of calm scores yesterday on patreon we also did touching based dave talked about uh maybe some contra cocaine dealing uh i discussed whether or not oj simpson Chloe's father. And Dylan discussed a bust, or not a bust, I guess. Animatronic. An animatronic Donald Trump that might have been Hillary Clinton at one point. Think about it, folks. Yes. I had a dream about that animatronic last night.

It was a nightmare, really. Very ghoulish. Didn't really do the man much justice. Not that he's an attractive feller, but ew. Didn't really do the man much justice. Not that he's an attractive feller, but ew. Would you kiss animatronic Donald on the lips? What if we kissed?

What do I get out of it? I don't know. You could be like, dude, yeah, randomly at the Hall of Presidents in Disney World, I made out with Donald Trump's animatronic thing. I'd smooch him. I'd be afraid he was going to grab me by the... Wait, would you lips him? I would probably snog him, yeah. Okay okay if that's what we're talking about here i'm talking about lipsing and tomorrow on patreon we're doing voicemails as always also go check out youtube.com circling back to watch

I obviously know the answer to that. Yeah, there might be some people in STEM who might be saying otherwise, but like, you know what? We're just here to tell you about AG1. We're not here to teach you about anything else. Famously, it's a trace mineral, but y'all knew that. Well, yeah. Yeah, I'm more of a Trace Adkins guy.

Bro, when Gervais hosted the Golden Globes, he held no punches. It was really good. I'd probably watch again if he was back, but they won't bring him back.

No, they won't bring him back. I think they outwardly said ricky gervais will never like be a part of this ever again the epstein joke could not have fallen more flat which tells you everything you need to know about uh jeffrey epstein did he make an epstein i know he did a weinstein yeah he did a jeff uh harvey weinstein oh baby am i mixing the two i think you are i think you are but he would you have to think that he would have done one had he known more at the time. Yeah, he went on Harvey. No, he did an Epstein in 2020.

Okay. Yeah. There you go. I know my Epstein concept. I've never been on... I'm not on the flight logs, just to be clear. But you have been on the island. Some are saying that some names are going to get released. Who?

Aaron Rodgers alluded to it. I mean, not just him, but that was a story that we got sent yesterday. He had an all-time smug performance yesterday on the Pat McAfee show. Did you watch? I saw a clip on Twitter where he was talking about his darkness retreat. Have you guys considered doing a darkness retreat? No, but I feel like he's getting too much shit for it. I will say that.

I think he's not getting enough shit for it. Why? If it's something that helps his, like, here's me writing for Aaron Rodgers. Hi. Go ahead and clip this. It'll definitely age well. I don't know what you're doing right now, but. I'm just saying, if, like, that's a thing that helps him with, like, his mental health and stuff, like, who fucking cares?

It's the way he talks about it. That's a thing that helps him with his mental health and stuff. Who fucking cares? No, it's the way he talks about it. Now, he does fall into the trap of people who do ayahuasca, hallucinogenics, adaptogens even. He's buddied up with Aubrey Marcus. It's not what he's doing. It's the way that he speaks about the things that he does that make him punchable. And you know what? I'm mainly talking about a few people I follow on Twitter that are like, oh, I'm done with Aaron Rodgers now.

I'm like, really? This shouldn't be the reason you're done with Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, I mean, this isn't that big of a – It is a reason to make fun of him. This shouldn't affect you other than that he's going to go on McAfee and talk about it, and you're right. Well, he is – I mean, he's pretty smug when he talks about it. So I guess you're actually right.

He just thinks he's the smartest person in the room at all times. Yeah. I think he's just turned into such a troll. But I He just thinks he's the smartest person in the room at all times. Yeah. I think he's just turned into such a troll. But I don't think he's an intentional troll. I think he just – I think he's bought into his own shit so much at this point that he doesn't realize that it's a bit and he's just the walking bit. Kind of like we've done with Circling Back. Smug is the perfect word for him, I think. But, I mean, hey, I'd be upset too if the lions uh ousted me

from the playoffs this year let's talk about the german ballet you guys are familiar with the german well i've enjoyed the german ballet for many years actually uh i've got some german in me that's not really what this is about i also got some dog in me you familiar with that yeah i've heard the phrase so what happened with the german ballet man are you familiar with uh his name is uh marco goki uh-huh yeah i enjoy most of his yeah marco goki obviously he's one of the most famous leading ballet people. He's obviously the head of the Hanover State Opera Ballet Company. That's exactly, like pretty much exactly.

Yeah. And he's being investigated right now. Whether it's fair or not, I think we're just going to have to see. But the things that are alleged are pretty serious, Dylan. Okay, what are we talking about? gonna have to see but uh the the the things that are alleged are pretty serious dylan okay it looks like he's been suspended for smearing dog feces on a critic's face after taking offense to a review that she wrote um we get reviews on our podcast a lot i've never had the pleasure of wiping dog feces on any of our negative reviewers not Not that I would. Some of them might deserve it. This says, according to an article

published by Frankfurter Fass, we'll just call it Fass for short, on Sunday, Marco Gocchi, the head of Hanover State's opera ballet company, allegedly verbally attacked journalist Weibke Huster during the intermission

of a ballet premiere performance. The confrontation seems to have been spurred by a previous review that huster had written according to the newspaper uh he threatened to ban the critic from it and then smeared a paper bag with dog feces on her face am i supposed to understand this as uh like he was just happened to have this bag of poo on his person that's what i'm wondering where did this bag of dog poop come from? I like to think, because it's a German ballet director, that he has a little lap dog

that he carries around. Like Mugatu shit? Exactly. And then it takes cute little baby doo-doos, like little deer pellets, and then you just hit him with a little smackaroo with it, which you shouldn't do.

You probably shouldn't. You shouldn't wipe doo-doo of any kind on a critic. You're just asking for a bad review. Especially during the intermission. There's the other half left. They might change their tune. You think the reviewer sat there just covered in shit for the second half of it? Still big time questions on where this poop came from. Because if it was during intermission, I assume that they were inside of this you know some kind of building because the dog just pooping in the

hallway or something like what's going on here you know where did the doo-doo come from anyway uh this is despicable folks i don't support i don't support um physical violence and i don't support rubbing poop in people's faces. I do support doubling down on people that talk negatively about you in public and just really making their life miserable. Yeah, I would like to

read said review. Do you speak German? No, but I bet we could translate it. Using Google Translate or something? Dave's German, right? You know German? No, I don't we could translate it. Like using Google Translate or something? Dave's German, right? Dave was born in Germany. You know German? No, I don't.

You had a German passport at one point. No, I didn't. Don't you have another passport from a country that you've never... Don't you have a Lithuanian passport, even though you've never been there? I've got a number of passports. They found them in my safe. What's the swaggest... Saudi passports.

What's the swaggest passport you could get right now, you were getting like an illegal passport for some reason morocco i really don't have i'm not turning down morocco did you have dual citizenship at one point day up until i was 18 yes okay did you have to participate in a duel to decide what citizenship you were going to get um yeah but they allowed me to just they coincided with my fraternity initiation when i was at yale in which i had a duel uh an active who was the active it was a guy from a movie from the 90s who so since you're still here i'm assuming you won well i'm still standing did you did you kill joshua jackson no yeah i did you killed pacey from dawson's creek we had a pretty

good pledge class that year dude we took some good dudes that year man i don't know a couple of dude if you transfer to harvard but i mean no joke if you have pacey from dawson's creek in your pledge class that's a good pledge class no he was a leg he was a legacy that's why he got in most of those dudes suck but like it sounds actually pretty cool dude i think katie holmes is actually gonna stop by the house during welcome week that's the word on the street dude facts yeah she's still dating tom cruise but like he might be like doing like another top gun or something i confusion i confusingly don't have a lot of german in my blood but i was born there so people just assume

i'm german which city munich munich i'm familiar with that one that's one of the bigger ones right right i'd like to go back i've never i want to go since let's go for october fest i've only been once and i spent most of that time at a two-star hotel yeah let's drink out of stein's yeah i i don't know man last time i was there we should win Ben Stein's money. And do Wiesencox. My friends were trying to snort some substance off my person. Yeah, it's Wiesencox. Which person? My little person. We did smelling salts in the office the other day.

I'm not going to say who gave them to us. You didn't do it? Everyone else did it? I walked in after y'all, and she mentioned that she had them, but she didn't pull one out for me well i wonder who it could be yeah it's not illegal it wasn't the little snappy sticks it wasn't not illegal what is it what does it look like it looks like a jar that you're like moisturizer would come in you just undo it smell it what does it smell like back on salt ammonia it doesn't really smell like anything because it just kicks your head does it just fry your brain cells like what's going on it just

opens your nasal passages like a lot is it dope i mean i don't love it i don't love the feeling of it there's not very often uh there's not very many times in life that it feels like my nasal passages are actually open i think i've got very shitty when you're ready to deadlift like 600 pounds when you did it? Yeah. I'm ready when I don't. I feel like with your track record, you should stay away from it. Yeah. Yeah. You might do it the wrong way and actually like start shoving it up your nose.

Someone's done that. Yeah. Why is Dylan rubbing the smelling salts on his gums right now? I've never even done cocaine, guys. Everyone knows that, which is why we can keep making those jokes. A cocktail, a margarita even, instead of salting the rim. Yes. You're smelling salting the rim or visencocking the rim.

Cocking the rim, that's something. You're a big rim and visencocks guy. I don't know. I don't even know what y'all are talking about. I don't like that we've been doing this show for as long as we have talking about Wiesencox and no one sent us any. I can't believe that we've been doing this so long and you just came up with the idea of putting it around the rim of a margarita.

It's a good idea. Like, that's day one stuff. I'll do Wiesencox right now. Someone send it in, I'll do it. I don't give a – I'm crazy. My buddy went to... He went to Germany for Oktoberfest last year, and he confirmed that Wiesn Cox is very popular

and very safe. Well, I don't know if it's very safe, but it's not as harmful as you'd think. Like a lip, like a caffeine effect, basically? To be honest, I don't know if it does anything other than give you the rush of snorting something up your nose. It doesn't sound cool.

That's 90% of it, is that you're just with the boys and you're snorting how would one spell v snorting jr w i e s n space k o k s v's and cocks crush that this is why we trend with the younger younger demographic we talk about this stuff. They are like, oh, these guys get it. Are you guys familiar with Borgs? No. Borg is something that you guys definitely would have been a part of. It's a new drink that the college kids are doing. It's where you take a gallon jug and you fill it with vodka, water, and caffeinated flavoring or electrolyte additives.

And apparently it's the new wave on college campuses. Borg famously stands for blackout rage gallon. Okay. Are you guys down with doing a blackout rage gallon? I am. I think we should have Borg Fest where we all do one together. I don't really do well with the caffeine mixed with alcohol. I've famously vomited, projectile vomited every time I've done Red Bull vodka. This says

or electrolyte additive, so we can do electrolytes instead. You can drop a liquid IV in there. As long as they're a sponsor of the podcast. If they're not, I might have to do a Pedialyte kind of thing. They still are, right? They keep sending stuff. I'm assuming. I just think it's going well. Beeson-Cox is harmless and merely gives you a sugar rush, which is soon replaced

by a cooling sinus clearing sensation. Sounds kind of nice. That does sound kind of nice. I like sugar. Could have used it last week. I could use one right now. Would you do V's and Cox with the German ballet director who smeared poop on someone's face? I'd rather do it with many other people.

This guy sounds like a total D-head. Kind of wild card, honestly. I'm currently at war with somebody who doesn't want dogs from our apartment complex walking near uh their place again now i'm scared that now that i know this is like in play that people are out here doing this i'm worried that this ends with me smearing poop on somebody it doesn't get more much more disrespectful than smearing poop on someone's face i once had somebody smear uh some peanut butter on my face and it upset me because it was such a strong smelling thing to get out of my

beard i'm telling you this buster you do that with doo-doo it's on site it's gotta be yeah you're begging someone to just yeah i'm definitely getting your car towed and calling someone if you got gum in your hair when you were little wasn wasn't that a thing? Like you'd get it out with peanut butter? Did that actually work? I guess it was just the oils and the peanut. I think it helps, sure. But then you got peanut butter in your hair. It's easier to get out of your hair than gum.

Just take a hot shower, shampoo, probably a couple times and it's gone. Damn, were you a nerd? You know a lot about getting gum out of your hair. Seriously. No, I was one putting gum in people's hair. That actually makes more sense. You put off big gum under the desk vibes no no no no i was disgusted with it anytime i would put my hand and touch it i would be like

and i'd run to the bathroom i hate it those people jerks i was too busy swallowing my gum in high school bro it's probably still in your lower intestine i did it way too long i was doing it for like a long time in my life it's still in there like dave said he's young dumb and full of gum it passes in like five days i don't have that much gum in my stomach i don't even do it anymore do you guys throw your gum out the window when you pass it does it blow a bubble i don't really chew gum man i chew it in the car sometimes if i'm in a route somewhere i got i got like a slight case of tmj so try not to i try to limit my chewing sally told me my breath was bad like two days in a row last week so i've

just been really like self-conscious lately i've been trying to like cover it up how does she tell you she goes you need to go brush your teeth i said why she goes because your breath smells bad britney never hesitates to tell me when my breath is i was like we just had white fish dip like what am i supposed to do it is what it is man we had some white fish dip at our place and uh yeah are you guys familiar with it like is that a thing yeah never heard of it my dad's got a cabin up there people were disgusted that we had this two cut two different couples were at our place and they were like it's dip that's like fish? I've got two things about that. I don't like fish in my dip. I don't like fish in my soup.

I like fish other ones. You don't like chowder? I don't know if I've ever had it. What? Chowder? See, whitefish dip is such a mainstay where I'm from that I didn't know that it was going to weird anybody out. So when I busted it out... Is it busting?

I thought people were going to be excited about it. And people were like, what? I've never heard of it, honestly. But the fact that Dave just admitted he's never had chowder. Scary. I don't know what to do. Scary stuff. I don't know what to do with this podcast anymore.

Scary. I'm trembling. I'm from Texas. I'm trembling. Yeah, they have it down here. A lot of people eat chowder down here. They also have it every place you've ever traveled to. It's not like a known food here.

They also have it every place you've ever traveled to. It's not like a known food here. That's like me saying that I've never had Texas-style chili or something. Which wouldn't be that crazy. I don't think it would. That's what I'm saying. Never had a clam chowder. No.

Have you been to San Francisco? I have. They famously serve a lot of chowder over there the best chowder i've ever had was in seattle actually there you go pike place market there you go fucking fire dave let's go get some chowder dog what is the give me the macros what's it made up of what's the what's the profile it's just got it's just a creamy soup with with clam in it and it's fucking dope it's got i think it's got potatoes in it and shit okay some veggies it's fucking flames dave just eat it man shut up i pretty much my the only soups i really enjoy are chili tortilla soup and like chicken noodle soup and italian wedding soup chili's not soup

what don't do this again dude last time we did this the podcast got canceled and like chicken noodle soup and Italian wedding soup. Chili's not soup. What? Don't do this again, dude. Last time we did this, the podcast got canceled. I thought it was. I think he's setting the argument on it. He put it on a plate. What are you talking about?

No, you eat chili out of a bowl. You eat cereal out of a bowl. Ice cream. Cereal soup. Cereal's just breakfast soup, obviously. Sometimes I eat nuts out of a bowl. Gross. Is that also soup?

These nuts? Yeah. Let's move on before this motherfucker dies. Got him. Damn. I'll eat any soup you put in front of me. It's good soup. Moligatani?

You know I've been on my Moligatani grind lately. Dave doesn't even know what that is. I had some yesterday in the office. Dave doesn't know. I'm trying to think if there's any other soup. My container's still here if you want to go smell it. Oh, wonton soup. Wontonon soup probably my favorite as a kid and egg drops fine but i'm more of a wanton dude those are they're good but like those aren't those aren't

like topped here you gotta get some more chunks in there dog that's all broth wonton's very chunky wonton yeah the the wontons is a chunky item. Egg drop is not chunky, though. Famously not chunky. With your chicken soup, do you guys prefer noodles or rice? Noodles. Every time. I don't really fuck with chicken noodle soup or rice and chicken soup. Why?

It's good for the soul. Not really my thing. Why? You go to the soup bar at the fucking grocery store. What tickles your fancy? Ooh, I might hit you with like a corn chowder. Okay. I might do some kind of tomato-based soup.

You really started good with corn chowder. I'll fuck a corn chowder. Tomato soup is like the biggest give up of a soup. Oh, I like it. I think it's so mid. I like it. Like, do you also like V8? I used to drink quite a bit of V8 okay v8 sucks okay yeah but do you like it enough to like eat it out of a bowl with a

spoon probably not because that's like the same thing i also i also don't hate v8 that was a health trend back in the day we're like people like you know we're healthy we eat a ton of v8 dave you go to my tomato you go into my tomato. You go into my parents, uh, refrigerator right now. You will find a thing of V8. That's because Nancy's just whipping up. We stay on that.

Nancy's whipping up bloody. she's a zing zang girl. Everyone knows. Zing zang is the only way to go. And I will say, say it. If, uh,

You might be listening. You are so gross. Who is it? I'm not going to name him. Freaking freak. God.

Dude, it was Fitzy, wasn't it? God, dude. Some people are probably confused because some people know the Borgs from Star Trek that are actually recurring antagonists that are cybernetic organisms linked in a hive called the collective. But that's not what we're talking about. We're actually talking about blackout rage gallons. Okay.

Okay, I get it now, yeah. That's what that turnstile song's about. Yeah, the leader of the Borgs is the Borg Queen and their base of operations is obviously the Delta Quadrant. But we're talking like we're honestly the only delta quad i want to be in is on campus no dude you don't want to go down there they took some sketchy guys this year yeah but dude i hear they fucking rage we didn't have a deke at our uh at our school but i always thought it was i always we always laughed about like deke

because we're fucking children, still are really. Just like Deke Prescott. Deke. Prescott's a pretty frat name. It is, for a first name. Dakota. Dakota Rain Prescott. Like a cold Dakota rain.

He's doing November rain. It's a good song. It's too long. A little long, but a good song it's too long a little long but a good song who sang that just tickling the ivory gnr bro guns and roses as far as their famous songs that's i think that's my least favorite oh it's a good song you're more of a welcome to the jungle guy no no i've good taste i've good taste just kidding man a lot of people are talking about how my spotify wrapped is like like a goated playlist at all times you know what i'd say paradise city oh take me down i like the riff a little bit better take me down to the paradise oh won't you please?

This is an interesting segment. It's called Will Has a Question. I went to dinner last night. It was Valentine's Day. it's called will has a question i went to dinner last night it was valentine's day did you go to hooters one of my favorite holidays didn't go to hooters honestly you know you know dylan like that was kind of a rude question you know that the worst thing about this pescatarian diet is not being able to eat daytona style wings right i'm sorry it's okay you can get clam chowder there can you yes you can i would eat the hooters clam chowder for sure you really can okay it's true i saw a dude order once i went to dinner last night

right and the restaurant i went to had a lot of four-person tables okay you're not gonna name names i can name names called uchiko austin uh probably pound for pound uh my second favorite restaurant in austin it's bay's number one i think it's my second favorite restaurant maybe ever um wow so yeah wait what's number one jeffers oh of course yeah i'm more of a uchiwale that's always really inappropriate this is a child-friendly podcast. Very much so. Probably one of the more inappropriate songs I've ever let grace my ears.

That hook, though, man, brings you in. She famously put her... No, I won't even go down there. Yeah, don't. So there's a lot of four-person tables. And last night being Valentine's Day, I saw a lot of two tops sitting at these four-person tables. Yeah, a lot of couples go out on Valentine's Day saw a lot of two tops sitting at these four-person tables. Yeah, a lot of couples go out on Valentine's Day, Dave. Not just one person next to me, not just two people next to me,

but three different couples next to me were all sitting on the same side of the booth or the table. Oh, that's cute. I have some questions for you guys. Okay, facing the restaurant, right? I mean, like... That way they both can see out the whole floor. We were in the bar area. One was staring at a wall.

No. What? Another was staring at the hostess stand. What? Another one, I think you can make a case, hey, they have a better view on that side of the table. I thought it was... I have never been a person to sit on the same side of the table. I thought it was, I have never been

a person to sit on the same side of the table just because I don't really, I like to have, I want to have a face-to-face conversation. Have you guys ever gone on a date or are you a person right now that will sit on the same side of the table? Have never in my life even had the opportunity to present itself. In college, Dave drove a, it was an F-150. It was a single cab and it had like the bench seat. Yeah. And he always put Bay in the middle. She would sit in the middle and leave the shotgun seat wide open. He would put his arm around her.

I thought it was mad cute. Yeah. I mean, and then she ended up marrying you. So I guess it didn't really work out for me. You dated Brittany in college? It did. I don't remember that. Yeah.

She went to Texas A&M. Yeah. It was a long distance. That's why it didn't really work out for me. You dated Brittany in college? It did. I don't remember that. Yeah. She went to Texas A&M. Yeah, it was a long distance. That's why it didn't work. Oh. Dave's a little middle seat girl. Mm-hmm. I used to go out for Chili Fest.

We had a big fight. Yeah, I can see that. We had a big fight out in Northgate. Yeah. You saw me snogging Ellie. You were two-stepping with the wrong babe. I tried to bring her up to the terrace. I thought Chili Fest was a little too fucking mainstream. So I started doing a different festival.

What was it? It was called Chill E-Fest. That's sick. That's good, man. We would just chill and do ecstasy. They should just rebrand Chili Fest to Soup Fest. That's honestly not a bad idea. That's so stupid. Really really it opens you up yeah

you could have uh you could yeah chicken noodle you could have chowder yeah you can have chicken you can have tortilla soup we totally hijacked your segment by the way what questions do you got a question are there even like that many tortillas in tortilla soup fried little strip fried literally no they have those little tiny strips but like those aren't actual tortillas to me those are like chips like i feel like tortilla soup should be served with tortillas that you dip it uh for the record tortilla soup does not go well in a tortilla if you try to eat it like a taco yeah it doesn't work right it's a broth you mean you could dip it just either broth soaked tortilla that's my thing go to your questions man we're we're still doing the

thing you didn't answer the question of whether or not you're a same side boother no i'm not a same that's weird it's weird what's the benefit of sitting on the same side of a booth with somebody else that you get to touch each other you can get handsy didn't you get an uh joe once i'm sorry an uh joe just asking i don't know what that i don't know what he's talking about just think about it he set me up for a joke but i'm not gonna i'm not gonna bite he's got the line out there yeah i'm snorting i'm kidding i'm kidding we're having fun here will's doing a segment uh not to be a tactical guy but like i don't like the idea of both of us having our back to the

restaurant afraid of a mafia hit that's super weird you're afraid of a mafia hit having your back to the restaurant both of you having your back to the restaurant is super weird one of them like if you're sitting across from someone then their backs against the wall obviously one of you is going to be what if a process server wants to serve me a subpoena and i like i don't see it till they get right up to me do you worry about that i do i like a booth that's you're still thinking about uh Joe aren't you

no I was thinking about subpoena I like a booth that's parallel to the wall parallel so you to the wall you both sit with your

side to the wall it's not how it goes you feel me parallel might not be the word maybe it's like it comes out of the wall no like like you're sitting

facing the person across from you in the booth, and the wall is to your right, like right here. Wall, booth. So you turn to the right. That's how booths work, yeah. Perpendicular. Perpendicular, thank you. But you were saying people had their backs to the restaurant,

which would indicate that they're facing the wall. Oh, yeah. Yeah. The couple that we sat directly next to was facing the wall. Very weird. If you have view, if you're at a restaurant that has some water in front of it, maybe a nice vista, then by all means, soak in the vista together. The vista.

That's what someone said to us when we were in Colorado. She's like, some beautiful vistas. And we're like, does that mean view? I think it's a colorado thing i think it's like a crunchy colorado thing to call it like a vista i don't know don't care i don't really care either so like you sitting there the whole time as you're you know you're you're looking at your wife who you're at valentine's day dinner with and like do you just kind of look over like you guys think you're looking at your wife who you're at Valentine's Day dinner with and you just kind of look over like, you guys think you're better than us? Think you're more in love?

We're sitting there and I'm sitting in a chair and Sally's on the booth side of our little thing. And on her side, it's like a bunch of people. And I feel like I'm at a job interview because it's just like a row of people just sitting there. You're in front of the high council? There's no one next to me anywhere. But the girl's borderline knocking into Sally when she's getting out of her side of the booth and stuff. you're in front of like the the high council there's no one next to me anywhere but like

the girl's borderline like knocking into sally when she's getting out of her side of the booth and stuff and i'm like y'all could just make this way easier and just like not sitting next to each other just not do it shout out to valentine's day though what a waste of money we did we did salmon last night was it a prefix menu i thought you did steaks i was wrong i we had a little miscommunication i don't know what ingredients they used on the menu what i don't think there's any pre in the like in the food that we had jesus oh my god dylan your performance is trending down. Oh, my God. You started okay. Because my co-hosts are just-

We were trending, and now you're trending in a different direction. You guys are just bricking and all kinds of shit. I'm trying to keep pace with the other team. You're over here confusing parallel with perpendicular. Dude, I saw a spoiler. I think you could explain that either way. I saw a spoiler for Love Island, which is trending up. You're facing parallel to the walls is what I was saying.

That makes sense. The table is perpendicular to the wall, but you're facing parallel. I'd prefer to be catechor. So either way works, actually. Remember parallelograms? No. Geometry, man. It's tough.

I saw a spoiler for a Love Island episode. Okay. They're bringing in an American celebrity celebrity have you guys seen it no who is it they're bringing in oj simpson or not to take olivia on a date and they're calling it glove island as they shouldn't do that they shouldn't do that yes there's there's a strong possibility that he murdered his wife and her boyfriend. Ron Goldman. Dude, how electric would a twist be on Love Island if there was a murder in the villa?

New twist this week. I feel like it might shut down the show. Tonight! Olivia gets murdered! That's not good. That's not good. What? It's like that movie on the train you sign a waiver like might get murdered but we're not liable for it yeah it's like the the condemned starring stone cold steve austin they all just put him on an island together and

people get murdered oh hell yeah i just want to talk love hell yeah brother sorry that was hulk hogan. That was Hulk Hogan. Yeah. It's all right. They both wrestle. So what's the main point? Did you feel like less of a couple? It made me question things.

Yeah, because if everybody's doing it, you're like, all right, well, are these people looking at us? Like, uh-oh. They might be going through it. They've been together less than six months, though. Yeah, right? So I started getting mad self-conscious last night because I was sitting there wearing some chinos and a sweater,

and I see dudes walking in wearing jackets. I'm seeing ball gowns, and I'm looking around, and I'm like, dude, am I like... Am I a loser? That's new relationship vibes. This is their first Valentine's together. Do married people go out for Valentine's Day, or is Sally and I weird?

No, we still do. No, we do like every other year. Like we just, sometimes we do, but with kid now. I feel like we never did it before. And I feel like having a kid actually made us want to go do it more. Cause it was like, you know what? Let's use this as an excuse to go do this. Yeah.

I saw Randy on a date one time and he sat down in a booth and he was like, no babe, right here, keeping it warm for you. And he made origami at the table. Yeah, he hit her with that origami. Randy's just, never mind. Can we talk about Elon briefly? What'd he do this time? I know I pitched this story, and now I'm just like.

You're dreading it? Block Elon was trending this morning, which I enjoyed. But that's not what we're talking about. What we're talking about is the fact that Elon allegedly complained that he's not getting enough engagement on his own platform. Yeah, he got dunked on by Biden at the Super Bowl. Apparently, Biden's Super Bowl tweet got served way more than his whatever the fuck tweet. He's such a fucking baby.

He's such a baby. This says, quote, at 2.36 on Monday morning, Musk sent an urgent message to Twitter engineers. Quote, we are debugging an issue with engagement across the platform, he wrote. Oh, no, I'm sorry. This is not Elon. This is James. Is this a serious thing? James Musk.

James Musk? Yeah, it's his brother or something. It says, any people who can make dashboards and write software, please, can you help resolve this problem? This is high urgency. If you are willing to help out, please thumbs up this host. Well, I think as it turned out, Elon's not happy with the fact that his account's not getting as much engagement, just in general. He had a real Flago Super Bowl take.

He wanted everybody to see. He was going to be like, I don't think you throw the flag in that situation. You just got to let them play. With the game on the line, that was probably the tweet. Probably crafted way better than that but he complains about impressions but twitter will not stop just feeding me his bullshit posts all the time see they died down on mine they died down on mine because i had to mute strategically

mute and block certain things and now i don't have it on my timeline anymore and it's great i saw some guy in this tweet got retweeted thousands of times but he a screenshot like show this guy's post less or like mute elon musk whatever it was he said how many times do i have to click this fucking button to not see this guy's tweets correct and like the but if you yeah there's a notion on twitter that like it's not that's not true i i've experienced it saying no i don't want to see this content anymore i don't want to see these tweets it still does it it's really annoying james musk by the way is his cousin jimmy jimmy jimmy musk freaking nepo babies fucking dude seriously we're fucking nepo babies our dads are so fucking rich i think dude he was you know what though

legend you know what i'm actually growing to not like as much as the elon stuff like elon being like him tweeting it's just people tweeting about elon i'm seeing so much about it and i know what he is that fault for this but there's so much just like half my timeline now is just people dunking on elon i'm like, all right. That's why your boy. I just tweeted the word Elon. Made my life a lot easier. You still see the content about stuff and about Twitter and all the drama and stuff like that.

But you don't see nearly as much of it, which is necessary for me. Because otherwise, I didn't enjoy being on it. I don't care about Twitter as like a brand, as a platform. I care about using Twitter as an app to see other stuff that has nothing to do with Twitter as a subject. You know what I mean? So I don't like sitting on Twitter, reading about Twitter, reading about Elon, reading about that stuff. I want to read shit posts. I want to see like what chill concerts Bro Bible Brandon's going to. I want to see which airport Shiddo is the strongest in.

It turns out it's every airport. Yeah. I want to see people getting ratioed. Ooh. I haven't seen a good ratio in a while. Don't say that to me. Just introduce a ratio to me for a hobby. Your boy's got a lot of treat time this weekend.

You're not tweeting enough to justify me like getting my content together you gotta start upping your numbers i'm kind of on my not tweet era right now you should start tweeting more i need to snap out of it all right dude i'll make a deal with you i'll tweet about that old bag of bones though if you start tweeting more like i won't ratio you oh thanks i believe you do thank you yeah i believe him yeah this dude is so annoying go retweet him dude give him the engagement that he craves i get it if i if i owned a social network and my engagement sucked i'd probably be pretty mad about it too but i think i would be i wouldn't want to tell my employees that i was mad about it because that's a tough look that just makes you look small you're still doing numbers that's fine it's fine 2 30 a.m though come on who's slacking that he's

got mad followers man how many does he have more netflix this this image in the article says 127.7 million i don't know if that's accurate or not i assume it is he didn't he i could see him like upping his followers like i could see him just like making people follow him people still buy followers 128.9 can you do that people on instagram still do for sure you can definitely do it on instagram i know a couple people who do it really like is that can i can i ask you a question about buying followers when people do it do they have to do it continually or do they have to like once you buy it i know that you can eventually get your like the accounts taken away like the bots and stuff will just get deleted right but is that the kind of thing that

you have to like keep up i have no idea like if there's a a 2000 follower swing that you have because they deleted a bunch of bots like is that like all right i gotta go back and buy some more i don't know there's no point in buying followers no no point those are not real follows if you start like a direct-to-consumer brand and you launch the socials and you want people you know you're gonna you're gonna you want some you're gonna pay put some money behind your posts and you launch the socials and you want people you know you're gonna you're gonna you want some you're gonna pay put some money behind your posts and you want people see it you don't want to see you got like 18 followers well the problem is anyone who has an ounce of like intellect will know that they're bought followers i feel like we know because like we know what like the ratio between engagement and followers should be right i feel like a regular person on

instagram yeah if you're just probably not going to be something they pick up on right if you're just stopping by like they look legit but if you've actually followed that account it gets you get suspicious real fast when you have 50 000 followers and you get 112 likes on a post it's like something's not adding up here yeah that's what i mean honestly this is a more annoying way to do it but this is how i did it for scaries to build the following i've just been spending every single night making new accounts going and following the scaries account and then i log into one of them like the post to log back out logging into another one it's a lot of work a lot of email addresses yeah and so i'm about 300k deep in those those accounts at this

point but they're all real accounts because i made them and so it my engagement's really good too it would be better if i had more hours in the day but it's hard to stay up that long i've got fritz just clicking away he's got tendonitis and he's 18 months old that's tough it. It's tough. He gets that from you. It's genetic. You have a click farm in your house, but it's just Fritz? It's just my son on a laptop. Damn. I gave him a second monitor.

That's that grind mentality, though. Yeah, he's got to learn it at some point. I figured, why not before the age of two? I want him to be able to afford his own plane tickets when he gets to the age of two. God. Get the points. Elon is just such a boner. Like, if he was cool,

he'd be sick, man. Because he's everywhere. But he's just, this boner personality is just in our face all the time. Sucks. This boner personality. He went to the World Cup with Kush. Went to the Super Bowl with Rupert.

Ah, Rupert. How about the company he's keeping? Hell yeah, Power Players. Very cool. Oh, shit, you guys hear that? We're already an hour into this bad boy. Dude, it's time. It's time for that gas gas.

I forgot about that because I'm also going to be out of town. Yeah. I feel like I'm about to enter my Bender era. Are you getting bendy? I have no excuse to not drink for the next week and a half straight. Happy hour tonight for the company. Oh, good call. Tomorrow night, got no plans.

Friday night, I'm eating Italian food with David Roth. You know that guy. Where are you going? Sammy's. This is one of those situations that everyone's doing in Austin these days where people make reservations way in advance, and then suddenly you have three reservations at restaurants. You know what I'm talking about?

Yeah, we did that last week and used none of them. That's why it's so hard to get a reservation in Austin, Texas these days because everyone's wife has eight open table reservations sprinkled throughout like the next two months. I was, I was, uh, asked to download open table so we could do this. And I'm like, all right, fine. I don't know. Oh, she's making you now.

She's making me do it. You're her little reservation. Yeah. Okay. Uh, Saturday, I currently have no plans. uh saturday i currently have no plans could i be convinced to uh make sad plans yeah i could i could the guy who's about to enter his bendy era i want to step out saturday might work for me sunday i'm going to a concert with micah you guys familiar with micah he's been on on this podcast before. Micah got some tickets to a Save Muni event in Austin where Lyle Lovett will be performing.

We're going to skip all that NARP shit of like socializing and stuff. And we're just going to go see our boy Lyle. And then, yeah, it's going to be – it sounds like it should be an okay weekend. I felt really – after how shitty I felt after like three drinks last weekend, I'm not psyched about drinking again. But back to it. after like three drinks last weekend. I'm not psyched about drinking again, but back to it.

I've also got a lot of soccer to watch. Saturday's open. I kind of like last Saturday. Low key. Turned into a dinner. It's fine. I was home by eight. I've still never been to carve outside of company events.

So if that happens at any point, I would like to go. Okay. I know it's not really great for me since I'm on my pescatarian. I'm going through my pesky era. But overall, I would like to hit Carve with the boys soon. Hey, and also I want to say happy deal day to those who celebrate. Mainly Brett. Shall we?

Yep. Toodaloo.
