All right, we're back circling back podcast. Happy Monday after Thanksgiving to all who observe. My name's Will DeFries to my to my left David Roth. Hey, New Jersey specifically Bridgewater I Want you to know? I've got my eye on the sky as well. So We're gonna investigate We're gonna figure out what's going on up there, but these drones look just I want y'all to know. It's not lost on us, it's not lost on me.

And we're gonna get to the bottom or the top of these drones that are flying around. Bridgewater, New Jersey. Hand up, it's totally lost on me. I don't know what this is about. Dylan, you're Dylan. Cause you're only following the mainstream news, dude. My ear is clearly not to the streets.

Yeah, what's going on with these drones? They getting droned up? Yeah, answer that question. Saw this a couple of weeks ago, people were like, it was one of my trending things on Twitter and I was like, okay. And it was like these five big drones that, I don't know, no one was taking responsibility for.

Like, and nobody really knew why they're out there. And then CatPat, shout out to the real CatPat, tweeted something about it. responsibility for like and nobody really knew why they're out there and then catpat Shut out to the real catpat tweeted something about it. So I went and looked on Twitter and now there's video and It's just unexplained drones. I mean, it's probably part of a government program, but they're just not telling you but it is a little unnerving You got these big they're not just like little drones. These are they're saying the size of small SUVs Just kind of hovering over your town. What's going on with these drones? What's going on?

That's a big drone. Big drone. These are big drones. Yeah. Dylan Shivery. Well, yeah, I'm also concerned and I will be following this as well. I like your hoodie.

I love my hoodie. Thank you, man. And you have the same one on just a different color. Shout out to our really good friends at Roeback. This is not really an ad but yeah, watch twenty will get you twenty percent off. I like the hoodie so much that I changed out of what I wore to work today just so I could wear the hoodie all day. It's very cozy. It's very cozy on the

inside. What's wrong with you, David? Where's your hoodie today, dude? It's Hoodie Monday. You don't look as cozy as we do. No one's doing no one's doing a Henley Thursday I'm on the hoodie situation. Speaking of drones. Hey man, I got a lot of travel coming up. Gonna be missing some episodes and I'm sure you guys are all upset about that. No, I'm not upset. It's fine. Oh, my favorite podcasters are going to be around for a little bit. But yeah, I'm sorry. But I got I got places to be man. Yeah, Utah coming up. I got Europe coming up. Are you missing anything? You're not missing anything.

Are you missing anything this week? Yeah, I leave Wednesday. Oh, so you leave Wednesday, Wednesday. All right, Dave and I will ride the ship. I leave Wednesday. Gonna miss you guys a little bit. You're not. I'm gonna miss you guys a little bit.

You're not. Dang, dude. And then I get back for one day exactly, and then I'm off jet setting again to Amsterdam and Madrid. Are you gonna ask Max Verstappen about his penalty from this past weekend? Yeah, I'm also gonna pump fake.

Unprecedented stuff. See what happens if I pump fake him. Why are you gonna pump fake him? I don't know. Just to test him. Something tells me F1 drivers aren't scared of much. I feel like he's gonna react about pump fake him. Yeah, but his reaction will be like you might be on the ground. Like he famously has some of the fastest reactions in the world. That's true. Very quick, but he's also not a big lad. Yeah. Okay.

Those Dutch man. They're not they're not big people. I don't even know if that's true. Is he Deutsch? William of Friesland takes a lot of whatever think he's whatever. He's Dutch, right? Isn't he? Yeah. Anywho, very happy to be here. He's five eleven. Oh, that's a that's big for F1. Yeah. George Russell's tall. I know that because he walked right past me and I was like, that guy's tall. Usually, if you someone walks past you and you think to yourself, oh, that guy's tall. Normally, they're tall. Especially if he's an F1 driver,

which I feel like the average size is probably five nine. You think someone ever moves their car for him and they're like, why am I so close? Oh, I gotta do the thing back a little bit. Yeah, maybe so, maybe so. I had to do that this weekend in my mom's car. And it's crazy that my body doesn't fit very well into a car driven by a five foot one

74 year old. It's weird how that works. Yeah. Yeah, Nancy She's probably listening Shouts to you, Nance. I Call it Nance a lot of people do oh, yeah. Okay, you're cleared for that. Okay How's it going Randy Trimbacki? Oh, it's going it's going good. It's Monday. Let's have a great day of podcasting. Hi Dave. I complimented Randy earlier. He said he looks good. He does look good today.

And he said that he's a cutie patootie today. Hey, he tried calling me scrum deli umptious when I'm clearly a cutie patootie. I mean, Dave. My mistake. He doesn't get it. He doesn't get it. My mistake. Is that a corduroy shirt?

Yeah, this is Mugsy. More for them later. Wow. He likes it. Company man. See, one of my biggest pains in life is I got that shirt in a size too small. Every morning I wake up and I say, why? If only you could just exchange.

Why did I do it? It's too late in the game. I've had it hanging in my, I think it fit It's too late in the game. I've had a hang in my I think it fit me at one point. Then you started adding mass. Yeah, testosterone. Oh, there's two. Back to back. Let's use for Jacamo. Only two.

Only two. I found a hangover here over the weekend. You guys want to hear about it? Is it a no? Damn. No. Damn. Ordain likes that, right? I know. And a cigarette. No, I don't know if this is healthy, but it did work. And I didn't intend for it to be a hangover cure, but I later found out that it was a complete hangover cure. Okay. Last week, I famously hurt my shoulder. Oh, yeah. Had to text Brett about it. It was a whole thing. I was very concerned about it. I've never done anything to my shoulder. So it was not only the dread of pain that was occurring as I tried to lift my arm above level, but it was also just the existential like, maybe this is the first thing, starting to get

older. And so I got on this steroid pack. We were going to be traveling a bunch. And so I got a steroid pack that you wean yourself down from. And the first day that I was taking it, we went out for a birthday dinner with some people and we had some martinis. Then we lit up some bottles of wine. And then as the night was closing, Sally looked at everyone at the table and said, should we get another martini? Piled that on. Suddenly I'm at another bar across the street drinking Guinness with the boys, just having time. Wake up the next morning. I was the most bright-eyed and bushy-tailed person I've ever been in my entire life. And I think it was all because of the steroids that I was taking. Interesting. Your hangover cure is just to be on

steroids. Just get on steroids. Wait, did you get on the steroid pack for the shoulder? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Oh. Seemed to have worked. Who injected it into your ass? Oh. It seemed to have worked. Who injected it into your ass? Very freaking bonds, dude. Oh. Never proven. It's true.

Okay. There's still nerds out there who wanna keep him out of the hall. Yeah, I'm one of them. This guy. You wanna keep him out? Yeah. Bro doesn't want him in the hall.

Yeah. Are you gonna posthumously add Pete Rose to the hall? He's in for me, baby. doesn't want him in the hall. Yeah. Are you going to posthumously add Pete Rose to the hall? He's in for me, baby. Dude, he's in the hall for me. Pete Rose deserves to be in way before Barry Bonds does. I think they both should have gotten in on their first ballot. I think that's another one of Dylan's truly horrendous trash tags. Okay.

What? He didn't juice? He has the most hits of anyone of all time in Major League Baseball. He bet on baseball games that he was involved in. Afterball. He bet on baseball games he was involved in. After he played. Bet on games he was involved in. I think they both should be in to be clear. I think they both should have been in first ball.

You're talking about the Hall, right? The Hall, baby. Look, Barry Bonds. You gotta get them both in the Hall. Maybe the Goat hitter of all time. But it's completely tainted. I'm sorry. Because he was betting on the team that he was associated with?

Because he used an outlawed substance in order to gain an advantage in the game. Okay, go ahead and send me the report there that proves that. So do you think that I should have had a hangover on Sunday this past week? Do you think I deserved it? Outside of baseball, it's fair game for me.

So you're good. Did it work on the shoulder? It did. It did, yeah. Interesting. Yeah. I don't know the science behind it. And I'm sure that taking steroids long-term is not productive for my health. But if you're ever accidentally injured and you get a steroid pack, just know that the first night you start taking it, you can get absolutely obliterated and feel great the next day. They usually jack up my sleeping. I usually don't sleep well on them. Yeah. They give you that energy, dude. I remember Mike at Grandex was on one time and he was like, I honestly haven't had a good night's sleep in two weeks. That explains a lot of my sleep issues

while in Northern Michigan. Yeah, that would make a lot of sense. It's give and take with the steroid use. You feel great, but you can't sleep. I've been down on the street corner trying to find more lately. Oh man. You should just go to the pharmacy. Yeah, you'd probably get better luck there. Please.

Yeah, that's facts. Please. I want to get really fucked up at our holiday party. We need to fucking schedule something. Oh, fuck, we do. We need to schedule in the back. Is it lads only again again like it was last year? I'm fine with that.

I think it's actually better. The boys just get loose on a third of the day Friday night. Or we can make it ladies too and just force certain people to bring dates. I'm gonna bring my wife. Talking to me. No, you don't have to bring a date. You don't have to bring a date.

Oh, okay. Yeah. Don't, talking to me. No, you don't have to bring a date, dude. You don't have to bring a date. Oh, okay. Yeah. Don't bring your guma. No, she's not company material. Yeah. Nice girl. That's good. I have a question for you guys that we haven't discussed yet. Does anyone feel strongly about anything

we should do beyond the paywall tomorrow? Ooh. I mean, you're not gonna be here the next week for Tuesday episode, Dylan, because you're famously gonna be here the next week for Tuesday episode Dylan, because you're famously gonna be in Amsterdam. It means we gotta come with it tomorrow. So is there anything, I think we should give the choice to Dylan.

I say you just host a show for an hour. Yeah. Do we have enough in the worst of tank? We do not, nope. We do not. Okay, well that's disappointing. We exhausted them all for our worst of episode. You listeners.

Worst of at watchme.com. I'll keep it anonymous. Okay, for not doing that. And of course the game show is later on this month. How about a cold call? Okay, we can do cold call. If you want cold call, we can do cold call. Cold call.

Dude, I heard Jett and Pookie are suing us. That'd be awesome. That'd be fine with that. That'd be funny. I'd probably I'd be pretty flexible with whatever they needed. But finally tomorrow, it's Giving Tuesday. You guys familiar with Giving Tuesday?

This was one of the better Thanksgiv Thanksgiving's I had. Really? Yeah. It was excellent. Well, I was a I was a sad puppy last holiday season. I'm in. So this was much better for me. Yeah, but your ball up top Dylan ball up top. And it was it was honestly it was great. I mean, of course, I did much more than just celebrate Thanksgiving. There's a long we had a long great. I mean, of course I did much more than just celebrate Thanksgiving. There was a long, we had a long break.

But yeah, Chelsea was included in our family Thanksgiving this year. Sadly, no parks. I get him for Christmas and not Thanksgiving. So he was with his mom in California. So that kind of stunk, but stayed in close contact with him via FaceTime. Did he shoot you a photo of his plate?

No, he didn't. He didn't. Rate the plate. Got the little kid back yesterday and that and it was great but yeah, it was just it was excellent man. Uh we actually celebrated Thanksgiving on Saturday because it was the first chance our family could get together and so Saturday was just a day of um of eating and and throwing back some frosty boys and watching some some really good football. What was the frosty boy and watching some really good football.

What was the frosty boy of choice? Ooh, I had a, there's a white ale right now out from Real Ale Brewery out around Blanco Way. Okay. That's good. Okay. I also had a couple of shiners because my dad keeps those stocked. Is he a Shiner Cheer guy when the calendar turns?

No, no. Come on. And I brought a uh, I brought a Samuel Smith's nut, Samuel Smith's nut brown over there as well. Do they only serve those in the big, in the big bottles? No, but that is what I had over the weekend. Okay. It's, yeah, you can get them in the, I just always see it in the big, standard 12 ounce. You pulled up with a nut brown? I pulled up with the nut brown, yeah. I made my famous beer rolls, which were a huge hit once again, no big deal. What kind of beer? Yingling.

Just a log, which one do you use for that? Just a log. I don't wanna call it log, no. You don't wanna go nut brown in the beer roll? Can you do that? Not a lot. I'm sure you could, but it seems that the flavor is a little bit aggressive for that, I think.

Oh no, I mean, I like chefs who take chances. Maybe next year I'll take a chance. How are you gonna get a Michelin star at your place if you're not taking chances with your beer rolls? All right, I'm still learning, okay? But rewind it back to clock a little bit. On Tuesday, I got beers with Dave for Barrett got beers with Dave. Yeah, for Barrett's was really for Barrett's birthday. Dave was there.

Correct. So was our good friend Phil. And some other lads that I had not yet met, which were very nice gentlemen. Kelly's good time. Kelly's do back some, some Guinness as one can imagine. I'm mad jelly that Yeah, it was a good time. It was a good Kelly's evening. How many you guys take down? I think I took down 16.

Okay. I think Dave was like 15. Those are pro ranked numbers. Yeah. I had two. I had to drive the next morning. I think I had four. I Ubered.

I was off the streets. Yeah. I don't think Kelly. I over it. I was off the streets. Yeah. I don't think Kelly should let you leave without drinking six. I did the turkey trot on Thanksgiving morning. PR. We totally fucked up by the way. So there's a five mile in a one mile version. We did the one mile. So we walked to the thing which was about over a mile away. So all in all we were

we're in for over three miles. But we got started a little too soon. So we got caught on the five mile route. And then we were walking away from the finish line and we were clearly a mile, like about a mile away. I was like, Chelsea, we're definitely on the wrong route. So we cut across and as we made our way back to like near the start line, finish line, same thing. The five mile like runners, like if people take it, some people walk just make it a casual thing. The runners were about

to finish in so we just snuck in with them. It wasn't intentional but like we did have much of a choice. We snuck in with the five mile people who were like actually running for a good time and we were walking and we heard people commenting like, what are you guys doing? Plus we had our our number plate thing was a different color. We had the like the one mile color. So it was clear that we were not supposed to be there. It was fun. They thought you were trying to game the system finished first with your hands in the air.

On the way to the Turkey Trap, we stopped, we stopped at a coffee shop on the way. More on that. I got a little anecdote about that stop But uh, yeah, man, just a good just a good break. Dave. You got something to say just fucking say it. No, I was Curious is the They have the one mile. I don't know the setup. I don't trot. So what the five mile you basically you take off So it starts on the the first street bridge over the river. You basically just just set off for downtown. And then you take a left another left and another left. It's a big square, I

think. And that's five miles, the one mile people I think you're supposed to immediately take a right instead of going toward downtown. So basically, East along Cesar Chavez. And they did a terrible job of like telling people where to go and what to do. So we were not the only ones. They had it that way the year that I did the one mile with the with Fritz man. Yeah, it was horribly marked. They didn't even not only was it not marked, but the guy that was like the he had an MC that was on the mic, like talk pumping people up and and he did he did nothing to direct people. It was just a mass and people were like, what do we do?

And so we started walking. Anyway, still fun. Still fun. Weather was great, nice and cool in Austin, Texas and watched Will's former Michigan Wolverines just absolutely upset and devastate the Buckeyes from Ohio State. That was a fun watch. That was so fun.

And then my Longhorns took care of business in College Station. The defense is just suffocating. Best D in the country. Got a little dicey. Best D in the country. Yeah, it got dicey because fucking Ubers. I thought it was about to happen.

Ubers is great for just at least one, just absolutely boneheaded play. And he had a couple. But man, this is a championship defense, Dave. It's a very good defense. Offense, I mean, the defense gave up zero points. This is true. Goal line stands, just huge defensive stops, turnovers.

Huge, man. Missed opportunity to plant a flag, though. I think they were trying to in Sarc. He put the kibosh on it. See that's I don't know. I just don't know if that's a mentality you have to have for your team. Like you gotta go get your rematch against Georgia. Let the boys plant a flag.

I wouldn't have hated it. All this shit talking Aggies man. Mm hmm. So that was that was very thrilling. I watch way too many yell practice videos. They've got to stop. I'm watching them even though I know exactly what it is. I've seen it a thousand times.

I watched the whole fucking thing. They need to stop. So it was a big recruiting weekend for A&M and I saw someone tweeting about how a bunch of the recruits were going to the yell practice. I'm like, you want them there? No, don't. Yeah, it's the worst PR tactic you have. Yeah, it's just embarrassing. Why don't they hire a professional comic

to come do the- I don't know. What if they got Bill Burr? Got a little story for you, Ags. Who's Old Rock, by the way? Story always includes some character named Old Rock. You don't know about him? Do you?

Yeah. Fucking bad dude. You don't know about Old Rock. If he hears you talk about him like this you? Yeah. Fucking bad dude. You know about Old Rock. If he hears you talk about him like this on this podcast. Sorry Old Rock if you're listening. Yeah, they gotta cut that shit out. They gotta cut it out dude. It's not good.

I think most Aggies will admit that it's probably not the best look. No, it's weird. You're wearing like a tight little football jersey underneath your overalls that are all decorated up. Like, what are you doing? Oh no, man. What are you doing?

You're weird. Who's old rock Dave? I think they, I think they just made it up. Okay. I think they, I think they heard us talking about old gene. Yeah. We got a fucking. We need it. We need an old character.

For our fables. Dude, I love doing fables for the recruits. Yeah. I don't know. You gotta, you gotta bring some high school, some cool high school teens and you gotta just start telling stories. Yeah. And you have to do it in like a very weird inflection.

I want to see some exit interviews with the recruits who didn't choose them. It's like, hey, so where'd we lose you? At the Yelp practice? It was just the punch lines weren't really punching. The dorks in the overalls really didn't really sell your school for me. I'm sorry to say. Got to say this though, A&M walking out onto the field, that was tight. You would have thought they were about to fucking run Texas out of the building.

They have an elite entrance. Elite. Elite game day environment, honestly. Like, shouts to them. It is awesome. Ty nailing the field goal. Yeah. Game day, shout out to Ty.

You knew he was gonna nail that, right? Like, there's no way Dude Perfect was missing that. When a dude is perfect, is it even fair to let him kick it if you would have been good from 45, dude I can't believe that the other kid Just I don't know just duck hooked one into the crowd just smoke someone is like 20 feet away It was my mind. I was watching that entire thing transpire the dude perfect segment on on the plane and

Every single person on the plane was like, why is Dude Perfect doing this? Like you could hear numerous groups just talking like, who are these guys again? They are Aggies to be fair. No, they are. They did belong there. Do you think, how do you think the conversation went

when they had to figure out who got to actually go up and make the picks? Cause like obviously Tyler is like the guy. It was always gonna be him. But do you think everyone's like, hold on dude, I've been kind of hot this season. Let me go up. One of the twins goes up there.

Yeah. I thought they should have all gone up there and just made a really long, you know, panel. And each of them just choose one game. Yeah. Did Tyler go perfect? Except for the guy with one world record. I think he missed the A&M score. Yeah. Prediction. Yeah. What that

boy get into? Oh, you know, I was back up in Duncanville, Texas. We had our Thanksgiving up there as as we often do. We didn't get to last year because of the pending baby but uh yeah, this was this was fun. This was a good one. Got up there. Made really good time on the way there. Do you make any stops for any kolaches? No kolaches.

Dude, it's too it's too much of a thing now. The lines are kind of crazy. They move quick. I just didn't do it. I had roads with me. Oh yeah, if you got the kid with you. You don't want to take him in the check-stop bathroom. He might get something just from being in there. Yeah, that's a fair point. I'll just give you the highlights. I got to go see, I saw Klein. Went over to our good friend intern Klein's place, got to see his baby boy, shout out to Cash and his wife. Wait, you saw Swine Flubyak?

I saw, dude, that's stolen Valor. That's such stolen Valor. I'm so disappointed by that. The guy never had Swine Flu. It's tough. What a fraud. I thought he was one of the only people I know who had actually had it.

And to find out after that little seg we did that Swine Flubyak never had it is devastating. It's a real bummer. I picked up the family turkey we had it done by my boy Victor over at a me house barbecue. It's his little gig he works over at Nomad. They do the little suitcase charcoal portable grills that are pretty sick. Got to go by their office on Wednesday. Had a couple beers with them. Good times. Thanksgiving we do the double up so I go do one Thanksgiving eat a bunch of turkey then three hours later I'm back at my parents place and do the same thing which is fine. I've got it

down to a science. I know how to to manage myself and what to avoid. What are some meal one preparations that you make to not feel too full for meal two? So my in-laws place is like a, they'll do like a macaroni dish. Okay. I avoid that. Okay.

Not that it's not good, it is, but I just say, look, I gotta keep a little bit of room here. I gotta limit the carbs. And I'm really saving room for the green bean casserole, which is always a hit in my parents' place. Wow. Yeah. Big fan of the green bean casserole, which is always a hit in my parents' place. Wow. Yeah. Big fan of the green bean casserole.

Should be a hit everywhere. That's top. Do you want to list the squad up after and have the conversation of like what was better and what was worse? Like, yo, mashed potatoes were solid. Yeah, you know, I try to, I enjoy both. I play it right down the, you know,

there's some things I like about both presentations. I definitely drink a lot more at my parents place because you're always 17 in your hometown. In fact, so. I did a little bit of drinking. Yeah, my dad's a big Elijah Craig guy right now. And we went through some of that and it was good. It was good.

I made my dad watch Sicario. How'd that go? Continue the fall slash winter of Taylor Sheridan. He thought it was good. He thought it was good. So we checked that out. Watched a lot of ball. I was trying to not be sucked in by the Cowboys. I was trying to not be sucked in by the Cowboys two in a row. Two in a row. Little winning streak. Little winning streak for the boys. Don't get too confident. No, get excited.

Get excited, dude. We know how this ends, man. They're going to get super bulked. They're going to get clubbed by the Bengals, who are also not good, but Joe Burrow is still very good. It's not like my wife. Oh, she does love Joe. Still think there's something weird about what's going on. Angle's games find their way on TV at my place.

He's got aura. I liked the bleach hair. He's an interesting cat. Uh, gotta give a shout out. We went to dinner Saturday evening. Le Passage. Le Passage. It is uh you know, they brought an all star culinary lineup to stylish Katie Trail Patio. Oh. And um yeah, it's a new restaurant from Travis Street Hospitality featuring Chinese,

Japanese, and Vietnamese flavors but mostly traditionally preserved flavors not fused together which I kind of appreciate. I kind of appreciate. I know you do. They don't go out of their way to fuse. You know what I'm saying? A lot of these fusion places. There's a lot of over fusing these days.

100%. Don't need that. Right. I had the shaking beef and it was, they just did it with like a filet mignon. You just go like that with it? They table side shake it. They shake the beef right in your face.

It's a little much, honestly. Sounds like something you gotta pay extra for. Right, right, Randy? Yep. Oh my god, Randy, are you single? I want to introduce you to my friend, Katie Trail. Send me that. Do you want her burner? No. She's private, but her avatar is really cute.

Right. Speaking of Dylan, I have not looked at this video snail.trail. Is that what you're saying? Snail.trail. Why do you send me this shit? You just, dude, you shouldn't be sending that't send you anything. Jesus. You're gross. Sorry. Left late yesterday. Shout out to us. Nice, a nice four hour drive back. Not great.

What are you thinking? It wasn't my fault. What's late? Late was a 11. Oh, okay. It's not too bad. Okay. Okay.

You make, you get, you're going Dallas. Once you get to Hill, you're zooming, you're going 85 miles an hour. once you get to Hills, you're zooming, you're going 85 miles an hour. Then you get to Hillsborough, 35 splits, comes back. And then you're in Hillsborough, Waco, Temple, Georgetown. You're stopping in all of them. Just Traffic City coming back from Thanksgiving.

Not great. Do you get any fast food? No. come on. No, come on player. I get locked in. I know. I get it. No stops. I get it. Unless someone else needs to stop. I'm not stopping. Yeah, it didn't happen to brother. Your pee boy, though. You go get a rate bottle. He just pisses out the window and drives with his foot. No, I have a I installed a thing. I just have a little drain on my floorboard.

Oh, that's cool. That would actually be sick. That's real cool. My car actually runs off of my piss. You have a urinal. Saves me a lot of money. Yeah. You're like Bill Nye.

Yeah. Bill Nye the piss guy. Confront Bill Nye the piss guy, Dylan. What are you looking at over there? You've been awfully solid. He's trying to ignore Bill Nye the piss guy. I'm gonna go ahead and do it. Confront Bill Nye the Piss Guy, Dylan. What are you looking at over there? He's been awfully sad. He's trying to ignore Bill Nye the Piss Guy. You can

interact during the podcast segment, buddy. Just listening. We're doing a show. Well, you want to take over? Yeah, I I went up to Michigan, saw my parents, took the whole fam, made a lot of snowballs for my son. His tiny little hands can't make good snowballs at this point, so I spent a majority of my time

just making them for him and making him stack so we could throw them at the window. Was it the good kind you can pack real well? Very good kind. Very happy with the packable snow there. What was the snow situation? The first couple days we were there, it was too warm to actually snow,

so it was just a really cold rain and sleet and freezing rain and things of that nature. Not great, hard to entertain kids in a small town when you can't really go outside and play. And so it eventually turned into snow, not a huge accumulation, And yeah, we got a little snow time playing in. But yeah, I just sat around all the time. Started watching The Great British Baking Show most recent season, knocked out some some Christmas movies with the fam, made some fires, enjoyed ourselves. I think I set the

record for drinks I've ever had on Thanksgiving this year. I don't think I've ever had like that many. I didn't even feel drunk, but it was just like muscle memory. Just drinking Guinness. Steroids. We want some nog on them. Dude's a real drinker. You going bourbon and nog? We went bourbon and the nog.

Had a couple ales, but when the Lions are buzzing, when you can go Lions win straight into a Manchester United win on Thanksgiving with no cares in the world, like what's better than that? We were talking about this earlier. Sports wise, Will is just absolutely feasting right now. It helps that I can just enter the portal and just choose teams that are really good, but yeah, I'm on a nice little run right now. It's like some random bandwagon you hopped on though. I mean, you're you're an

Austin. No, no, I've I've waited nine years to to adopt the team. I waited until I got married to a Longhorn. In-laws are very pro Longhorn, all of them. They still text me during like Michigan games though. I was, for some reason, the Michigan OSU game, even though I've entered the portal and I'm no longer a Wolverine,

it felt better this year than any other year I've ever experienced it. Very happy for our friend Davis Warren, quarterback. Major shouts. That dub is, he Davis Warren, quarterback. Major shouts. That dub is he's gonna that's a core memory. He likes my Christmas tree pick on the TL last night. That felt even better than the dub if I'm being honest. Both felt good though. You waited until Texas had like the best, best team they've had. Yeah, that's great.

Yeah. In between me being bam with the season before and then Michigan and now Texas like I can't remember the last time I like Like even like lose two games in a season Couldn't be you no, dude couldn't be me. It's fucking dope. Yeah, we got home. I got home around lunch on Saturday So we just kind of chilled put the Christmas tree together yesterday. It is fake Dylan I'm just gonna get ahead of that from when I send it to you to rank or to rate It's okay nine out of ten or fake. It's a it's a baller fake fake one though Sally I saw us this when I saw through the window. It looked very nice. No, we got a new one

Unless you're at my place yesterday, you put a picture up of a Christmas tree. Oh that one that one. Yeah Yeah, sorry. I thought you meant you were at my crib and you would look through the window No, I wasn't don't be creeping was a creepy Tom. Yeah. No, were you going through the window. No, I wasn't. Don't be creeping by my crib, dude. I wasn't creeping, Tom. Yeah, no. Were you going through my packages? No. Okay. But yeah, pretty nice little time. Fell asleep before 9 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday night. So you know your boy was gassed from the holidays.

Meet Twillery. The performance menswear brand that brings life-changing functionality to your wardrobe. Can I tell you how they brought life-changing functionality to my wardrobe? Please went on a golf trip a couple weeks ago. I had some pants from twillery I had yet to wear these pants But I knew that they fit great because I tried them on when I got them from there

I found that these are my favorite golf pants I've ever worn, but you don't have to just wear them for golf I just like the material for golf. It's stretchy. It's it helps with the sweat They just feel good to wear all the time. But I warmed at dinner afterwards. I was wearing them all over the place. I was shocked by how much I enjoyed these pants. But they don't have just pants, baby. They got a line of suits, shirts, polos, and jeans that'll keep you cool. They won't wrinkle. And they've got plenty of stretch to keep you comfy, to top it off everything, including the suits and machine washables. So no more trips to the dry cleaners. And as a special

Twillery, tailored for performance. Dave, I saw you looking at my tree pick, dog. Yeah, I was looking, I had not seen it. I gave you like um, I

Have to admit I put a bunch of ornaments on the tree on the backside of the tree Not really thinking I was putting them there because they wouldn't be as visible if you were sitting on the couch Or you're in our place and then I realized that the ones that I put on the back of the tree are actually Incredibly visible to anyone walking up to our place. You're a huge fan of El Arroyo tacos. I asked the question before this year's decoration of the tree if we could just not put an El Arroyo sign on our tree. I like it.

It's good on the tree. We have one. No one eats there. No one actually cares about it. It's it's good on the tree. We have one. No one needs there. No one actually cares about it. Ars says 80% of marriage is just saying what to each other from another room. Oh man, I laugh every time I see it. What? Ars says something different. I just hate it, man. They're too big.

They're the biggest ornament. I mean, it's big. Sally accidentally bought the biggest grateful dead ornament known to man. She didn't she didn't read the sizing of that but outside of that one on our tree, it's the biggest ornament. So,

that's where your eyes go. It's they're audaciously big. R says in a world where you can be anything, be kind. Oh man. That was not funny. That's a good message. That's a good message. Why are they getting serious with it?

That's a good message. I thought they just got a, did bits. Yeah, I guess they go, sometimes they get sentimental. So they just do, they just do merch. It's just a merch play for them now. Cause like no one, shout out to El Royo. Real Austin heads don't go there to eat. Nobody's really hitting it up that much that I know of.

It's a tough, tough foot traffic. I've heard from Sally that it's just not good food. It's not. In a world where it could be anything, I'd rather be having tacos. That's better than your ornament. Dude, come on, man. I'm so sick of getting that coffee table book from them too.

People just give it as gifts. I don't need another alerio coffee table. They've got a coffee table. Yes, dude. Like they need to chill. No, it's a good idea for them, but like no one in Austin cares about them at all. It's only a merge play.

Yeah, it is. What? Nothing. Daz is still cracking up at my joke. I just I'll crack it up at these El Royo sign ornaments, man. For those who don't know, it's a Mexican food place near downtown and they put it, they have this little, what do you call those boards? Like a panel word board, you can change the letters out. Yeah, manually change the letters out and they just put different sayings up and they're,

they're noteworthy. People talk about them. You've probably seen them. They're pretty viral. I saw them back when I lived in Chicago. Oh yeah. It's nationwide. Yeah.

I mean, I did today's actually, they let me go down there this morning and put it on there. But really what is it? Just said, how was my Thanksgiving? I don't want to taco about it. They've just did the Lafitte's laugh. Remember that one? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Uh, Dylan, you, you alluded to a coffee shop experience earlier. Do you want to elaborate on this? I have a little anecdote. So I mentioned on the morning of Thanksgiving, Chelsea and I did the turkey trot. So do you have turkeys that you trot with? Yeah, it's tight.

Yeah. What do they sound like as they're running next to you? They're good. They're panting because it's a long, you know, it's five miles. So it's a long way for a distance. No. Yeah, but do they wear their pants up here or do they wear them like that way? Oh That's a good question. Dang, you know, that's what the obelisk is bouncing around. Let's let the internet decide Yeah, do they have to wear a jockstrap for their gobbler? Yeah, they do. That's so good embarrassing, but it helps them run. Yeah anyway Chelsea and I stop into this coffee shop close to right between

where I live and where the starting line is for the turkey trot called the cafe at the Lauren great little coffee shop it's underneath the Lauren Hotel stop in because they have a good dirty child latte and we've been talking about it once it gets cool enough we're gonna get dirty child lattes I got a double shot. It's the official drink of biz dev Brett. I got a double shot Chelsea got a single not a big deal. I don't really matter all that much This place is buzzing because the turkey truck and it was close to it So a lot of people in there with athletic attire on that's like one of those things where it's like We don't want to open on Thanksgiving, but we have to because we're so close, we can make our nut on this weekend alone.

Yeah, the place was buzzing. And coffee drinkers know that sometimes coffee will move the bowels a little bit, move them along. And so I had to go potty. One or two. I was just talking about bowels, Dave, take a fucking guess. I don't know. I had to do a two.

You had to take a poop. I had to do a two. It's poop I didn't do it too it's real time so there's a restroom in the coffee shop and it was pretty crowded because it was so busy in there there's a restroom in the hotel lobby with they were directing like overflow if you got in the restroom another one of the lobbies okay I'm gonna that one feels a little bit more private and so I went to that one. Great restroom, nice and clean. The lock situation was a little

wonky. You turn it counterclockwise to lock, as opposed to the very traditional clockwise to lock the deadbolt. Okay. And so I'm like, all right, I think I locked this properly. Let me give it a tug and make sure. And it seemed like it was locked. Sit down. Should have tugged harder playboy. Doing my business. You know, I won't get into the details of my situation but it's just a standard poop situation. Standard poop.

And one of the young ladies who was working there just busted right in and I was working there. Just busted right in. And I was in a very vulnerable state. I had a, I had TP in my hand. It was a tough thing. Oh no. That's worst case. And you were AC Slatering, right? Yeah, and I was facing the opposite direction, which is how I always do it.

And it was just, we locked eyes and I didn't get a, I just go, whoop! And she just turned around and and it was really embarrassed. She didn't knock? Oh she didn't knock. People who work there should know that that's a tricky lock situation. This is why I bring my own lock everywhere. And it was quite embarrassing. Door open and eye contact immediate or is it a side eye contact? We we locked eyes. She just she went right for the right for the toilet and I was like. What do you say if you do have the door locked and someone knocks

occupied? You say occupied occupied. I'm more of a noise guy. I grunt like oh I don't know. I don't I don't try to say this but I think I come off a little rude when I do it. I just go nope. No, that's fine. No, you just gotta get the point across that you ain't coming in here and it didn't work for me. So we locked eyes and I did my business and I I washed my hands. I and I kind of hot when you guys locked eyes and I said Chelsea, we gotta go. She started laughing. You thought I

blew it up. I was like, no, this is not what happened. I went in a restaurant the other night. And not one but two people did not lock the door. I didn't knock. I'll just get ahead of that. I was just going in because they had like the signifier, the green or the red and both were green. So I started to walk in two in a row, not locked and people sitting down there. I was the wait, I was to walk in two in a row, not locked and people sitting down there. I was the wait, I was the barista in this case.

And I was just like, how did two, how did both of you not lock the door? On the stall door? Yeah. How do you not lock that? I couldn't believe it. That's crazy. Anyway, you look fucking disgusted.

It was outrageous. It's a little much. You just feel so vulnerable sitting there. Yeah. There's nothing you can do. No, I never want anyone to see me like this. And you saw me. Let's just not talk about it.

Just leave. If I have the door shut at home while I'm taking a shower, Sally makes fun of me because when she opens the door, I like jump scare. But I'm not expecting people to walk in the door. Some couples are comfortable with that, like pooping in front of each other. I've never been that type of person.

No, but like it's just for me, it's not even the comfortability. It's just that like when I'm in the shower, my brain is in a total different place. And so if someone opens the door, I immediately am like, what the fuck are you doing? Like what? Whoa. Hey, yeah, I can never go to around anybody.

I don't care who they are. I can do it anytime, dude. Stella watches me poop all the time. She likes to sit Rosie. You'll cover my toes. Yeah Man, I'm sorry. You went through that. It was it was tough, man but would that be harder or easier than like not having Ice for Negroni when you're really mentally set up for me about that. Well, I know sorry I don't want to put you through that so you can't go back there we walked past it when we were walking back home

and I really wanted another cup of coffee and I couldn't go in there because the young lady was still working. Describe the young lady. 27 years old, brunette. Okay. Had a nice green apron on. Yeah. Cool. Anything else you need? Just curious. You want to know if she was attractive? Do you think you ruined her day? I do. Sure. She was cute. Yeah.

Like Austin Barista hot. She was an Austin Barista seven and a half. Wow. Okay. I don't rate people on a number scale. Oh, see, I do. Yeah. Did she have aura? Were you looking at your phone too? No, because I was already in the wipe stage. The phone is not involved when that starts to happen. Great point.

Yeah, it's in the pocket. Oof, that doesn't happen to me in a while. I'm hoping that's the last time it happens to me. I'm sorry that happened to you, man. It's okay. I mean, I'm not gonna pass it. So she wasn't waiting outside the door when you walked out? That was my biggest fear. Is that I would have to confront her again?

No, in that case, you gotta sit there as long as possible and hope she gets the other door. If she is, if she does the right thing and she did, she just completely just leaves the scene. and hope she gets the other other door. If she is, if she does the right thing and she did, she just completely just leaves the scene. Yeah, you have to remove yourself and allow everything to just calm down. Yeah.

You can't be waiting there. That's a bad look. Right. You just saw the most intimate moment. Walk out like, well, we know what happened. We don't need to talk about it, but it happened. I'm just gonna keep walking. You saw me wiping.

She saw a TP in my hand. Not fun. I'm sorry that happened. It's okay. Like she knew what exactly was about to happen. Yeah, there's no confusing that situation with anything else. There's no messing around. No, no, no, she knew that I was about to clean my bottom.

She saw you're a crumpler too. I'm not a crumpler, I'm a folder. I heard you're a crumpler, dude. Can you imagine crumpling in 2024? No, no. Crumplers, dude, are- It's like little kid shit. That's a different beast.

Yeah, like what are you doing? What are you doing? What are you camping crumpling these days? What if she saw you hovering? That would have been- Yeah, that's my thing, hanging. Just fuck it. That's the most vulnerable. The hover, your quadra just burning. There are standing wipers. Yeah. There's probably one in this room. I used to crumple no more. Good. We all used to crumple. Yeah, then I turned- Then you'd grow up.

Then I turned seven. Anyway. Let's hear from our friends over at Aura Frames. Yeah. Yes, please. The amount that my mother talked about her Aura Frame while I was home this past weekend was, or this week was insane.

I'm absolutely obsessed with this thing. Sally and I have one at our place. I load it up with just photos of the family, the boys. My parents can throw photos on there. I can throw photos on my parents' Aura frame. I just freaking love this thing. The best gifts feel like they were picked out just for you. And that's why we love ourselves

a chair up in our kitchen and just like look at it and point and be like, that's blah, blah, blah. That's blah, blah, blah. Someone came at me and was like, oh, just put it in front of your kid. You know, like what? Oh, come on. It's an aura frame, dude. It's a frame.

The exclusive Black Friday Cyber Monday deal is their best one of the year. So don't miss out, terms and conditions do apply. Well, I did some scrolling over the weekend. I'm a real scroller. This dude be scrolling. My timeline has gone from being purely political to now being purely college kid burner accounts.

We've talked about these before. There's an epidemic earlier this year of people wearing medium sized polos of football games, just disgusting behavior all around. Can you imagine? But what I've learned is that the the burner verse as they call it is much deeper than that. Are you guys are you guys getting these tweets like I'm getting these tweets? I definitely was sort of the one that you quote tweeted about the guy on the PJ.

Well, it wasn't a jet, Dylan. Prop plane. Just a prop plane. That's the only one that I have seen. What are you laughing about, Dave? Nothing. My for you tab is often heavy with these. For anyone out there who's not familiar, can I give us just a little rundown of what I've seen in the burner verse over the last week or so? Please. Okay, some of these things go back.

I mean, Randy, do you want, Randy, I'm gonna have you put up some photos before I get into what I've seen just so we can have our listeners have a feel for what's going on. How do we know this is a prop? I don't know, I don't ride it. I think it's just a tiny-ass plane.

And you're sitting back to back with them. I think an actual PJ's got like... You've been on one. I've actually been on a private jet. I think I was with you. That was your second time though, David. Third, actually. Dylan, what's your experience with them? I'm still waiting on my first one. Thank you for asking.

At least you know that you might not be indicted for the one that you went on. Yeah, I have that going for me. That's nice. Are you not flying private to Madrid? No. They didn't set you up? No. That's messed up. Flying Delta. Delta is nice, but there's something about private, the privacy of. I understand the appeal of right, of flying private. I haven't been able to do that yet, but hopefully one day I will get to the experience. You just drive right out there park and then just walk up on the plane. Swag dude. It's just different than like flying,

I guess was the other way commercial, commercial. Commercial. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's hard to even say. I'm pretty sure you're familiar with flying commercial. I have, I have had to in the past on occasion. Okay. Well, this guy, Tim Cotton. Okay.

He said he was Oxford inbound for the Ole Miss Mississippi State game. Dude hit him with the styrofoam. Yeah, he went styrofoam. Shows he's fucking sick because he doesn't care about the environment. That's sick. I usually double up on the couch.

He went with the Roger Federer odds and some no-show socks to a cold weather game. How do you guys feel about that? That's not what sticks out to me. Really? How are you going to cross? I know that's on your radar. He crossed his legs to show off the kicks and he's hitting them with the odds. Yeah.

What are you doing? You got to show them the odds. If you have a chance, if no one's wearing them, if you're wearing odds at our age, it's just, oh, I'm saving my feet. They're like, come on, dude, you're a young buck. What's he sipping on there? You got to put on some duck boots for this or something. That's Glen 12.

That's Glen, live at 12. Okay. That's a generic. Over ice? Randy, can you go to, can you go to exhibit B please? Uh, this guy says that he's heading home for Thanksgiving. Uh, had to pack the essentials. He went with the

master's hat, the master's belt needlepoint. Needlepoint belts are a big player these days in the the burner verse. Okay, something's never changed. What else is in this pair? A handgun. Some Zin 6s. He does have some blue chew to which a lot of people were saying you're a little too young to be having needing needing help in the downstairs area. No one flexes Viagra in a pic this guy did He's also got like a pen on him Maybe you know weed pen. I don't know for signing deals Things of that nature are those

That's a jewel those clips like For the gun. He's Is that two extra clips? Hard to say. Extendo? I don't know what clips look like because I don't shoot guns very often. They're in a case right there, yeah, those. Yeah, just in case he gets in a significant gun battle.

Yeah, I'd like to know where he's going home for the holidays where he needs his handgun on him at all times. He needs to pop off 30 shots. Yeah, in case he runs into the Dutton boys and they're flipping desks over. For those trying to zoom in right now, which might be Randy, the barber in the photo is a medium.

Yes. I'm looking at what this is. Next to the pen. It's gonna be his hunting license. I saw a big content guy point out to the medium size of this jacket. It's embarrassing that these guys are still even doing this.

I follow another account. This guy's not like a douche bag burner account at all, though I don't think it's his real name RF Kenmore It's this guy who does a lot of uh, like fashion tweeting. Okay, not like Derek Guy or anything, but just like whatever uh, he pointed out that all these new guys are showing themselves by having like Medium large barber jackets because the traditional sizing is like 36 38 40 42 44 So he's like these guys are just non-ball knowers.

Oh wow. Randy, exhibit C please. Yeah, it says four milligrams. So I don't know what that thing is. Adderall. It's something. This guy's Rudy Giuliani. Giuliani, that's good.

Somebody asked him, what stops you from committing suicide? This was in January of this year. So he's been around for a while. He said six milligrams in, seven to 12 beers after work on a Friday, Liverpool football club, jorking my peanuts and the burner verse. Yeah.

Jorking my peanuts. It pretty much checks every box. Dude's out here jorking. That's funny. How's Liverpool doing? Very good. They're living a pretty charmed life this season, David. Not losing a lot or at all.

And our final photographic exhibit is another, this guy's going for family photos. Oh, pony up. He said, Lucchese's are not shown. He's got the Rolex, the needlepoint SMU belt, the SMU. Oh my God. See, I don't think you can raw dog a tech material performance polo underneath a barber jacket.

I feel like if it's cold enough to have a barber jacket, you simply need another layer. That's a smathers belt, isn't it? It's gotta be a smathers belt, dude. You know, you spent at least $198 on that thing. Can we see the size of the jacket? I would love to see the size of the belt. It says large on the jacket.

That belt looks like it's about a 30. What are we doing here about the pink? Going pink, pink polo, end of November. Okay. What kind of watch is it? It's a Roli. Oh shit. It's a Roli.

He's got it like that. Can I give you guys some notes on things that I've noticed on the burner-verse lately? A lot of these guys have docked themselves by posting photos of themselves wearing size medium. There was one notable burner account who docks themselves by posting a photo with the the memed Texas guy. These guys are all twerps. Like they're all size medium. We could pocket any of these dudes. We could crumple these guys. Glad I'm not a medium. As we've just seen here,

I mean dude, can you imagine being a medium, Dave? Could not be me. Could not be me either, dude. I'm not wearing a medium sweatshirt right now. This is definitely not a medium. No, it's a large for sure. I know a large and I see it. They've just completely commandeered barber jackets,

which is concerning for anyone who owns one at this point. It's a thing. They're also ruining Peter Millar. Come on. A lot of them are wearing Peter Millar and only post Peter Millar, but things have taken a turn because one of the notable burner accounts discovered that they sell Peter Millar at Costco, and this just created a whole conversation. The conversation went anywhere from, why is your mom buying you quarter zips from Costco to only the ugly Peter Millar's are at Costco to does Peter Millar not have the sauce if

they're selling it at Costco now? Like should you not be flexing it? This is news to me and I'm a Costco guy. See, you got to start poking around Dave. You're a Costco guy. Of course. Well, good for them. No, I agree. Getting some nice affordable polos. poking around Dave. You're a Costco guy. Of course. Well, good for them. No, I agree. Getting some nice affordable polos. A lot of the behavior things that they do are interesting as well. Some of them, a lot of them sign their tweets.

Like they're an old person texting. I love that move. Like respond to someone and you sign it, dash Dave. Dash Tim Cotton. What are they using their fake names? Yes. Okay. Yeah, they're all using their fake names. That's just someone who's just got way too many characters

that they didn't use. Kranglers are back. I didn't know they left. The potato sacks. Yeah, these guys are loving themselves from Kranglers lately. Even some vintage Kranglers I've seen on the timeline. These guys are thrifting. I stand people who consume consciously.

Thrifting is a thing that you can do that. You could probably get a vintage pair of Kranglers down at like one of the many shops here in Austin for like $110, something absurd. Do you think we could get some of Griffo's old Kranglers and raffle them off the backers? We can get a bunch of them. shops here in Austin for like $110, something absurd. Do you think we could get some of Griffo's old cranglers and raffle them off? Yeah.

The backers. We can get them to sign the back pocket. They also have two, two captions that they overuse. First is shrink the game. If they see someone dressed like an idiot at like a tailgate or a football game, they'll just say shrink the game. I don't hate that. They also say run the damn ball a lot. Yeah. They'll just say, shrink the game. I don't hate that. They also say, run the damn ball a lot.

They'll just post one of the photos they did earlier. Old football guy mentality. Just run the damn ball. Run the damn ball. Like you're not running the damn ball and you're Peter Millar pull over and you're your barber jacket, my man. Shrink the game and run the damn ball.

My final note about the burner verse today is simply that if TFM would have been in our possession when the Burnerverse started taking off earlier this year, TFM would be absolutely thriving right now. Yeah. We could have hired some of these dudes to be interns and just start chopping. It almost feels like you're watching old school TFM just unfold again. Yeah.

I had about 1,200 words I wanted to write about Hunter Biden last night. Yeah. It's like, man, I wish I had the platform for this. Wish we had that captive audience. Did he, is he, is that TFM of the year? Not easily. Maybe of the decade. It might be the biggest TFM ever pulled. There hasn't been anything that's fit the, fit the bill quite like that, where it just checks a number of boxes and you thought it could happen and then when it happens you're like looking around like he really did it. I couldn't believe it when I didn't see it till I woke up this morning and I was like that's that rules. This account is not used very much anymore at all. What total frat move? Yeah. Yeah, it turns out uh two tweets since October. Not even a hundred Biden tweet. And one of them was a big cat retweet.

So one actually tweet since September 14th. Sad, sad state of affairs. Dave, do you have some information for us on Enron? Well, Enron's back, so. Really? They didn't think a rebrand would be appropriate? They just want to know, can we talk? Enron just wants to talk. I don't know what's happening here.

Kind of the beauty of it is no one does. Someone may have just spun up and saw you can get the Enron account. They got it verified. Only 9,000 followers. So they're trying to launch a crypto token focused on solving the energy crisis? I have seen crypto play thrown out there. If you're a company that's went down for fraud, is crypto the first place you want to start since so many other people go down for fraudulent activities with crypto?

I think at this point, it's, you just lean so hard into it, like what's FireFest guy's name, Billy? Nick Forgen? Yeah, where he's like, you know what, that was a huge fuck up and that was on me, we're gonna run it back though. So you're either with me or you're against me. It's the classic fool me once, fool me twice mentality.

Correct. Correct. Remind me what the scam or what they get in trouble for. It's been a while. Enron, just a massive accounting fraud. Massive, massive fraud. Okay. Massive bankruptcy.

Tanked the economy for a time. It's almost like they didn't account for something. Put that in a la roya sign right now. That's an accounting joke. Who's this Ron guy? How do you keep getting away with this? Well, make sure to see what they get into. I mean, I might buy. I might, I might get diamond in Ron hands. You know, I feel like there's worse

things you can invest in right now. Okay. Like what? They don't. What's your financial advice. Oh, well, you know, I don't talk about that publicly, but I will say the Enron logo still kind of fun. Yeah, it does. It's a good logo. It'd be nice to have like a vintage hat with the Enron logo on it. It's good. Ironic.

It's good. Enron returns no token yet, but what's next? Okay. Wait, if they're doing a token play, but what's next? Okay, wait, if they're doing a token play, are they smoking crypto? You didn't think about that, did you? I was on that trip though over the weekend. I didn't get that tripped up by this year. I stopped drinking at Thanksgiving dinner.

So like I had a glass of wine at dinner, but that was my final drink of the night. And I think piling on a bunch of calories on top of what I drank throughout the day just really set me up for success, or it was the steroids. We're doing a token play. I didn't know, and I thought it was Elrond that put the fellowship together, not Enron.

Good, that's good. Dylan's already phased out that part of the movie. What movie? Dylan's like Elrond Hubbard of the movie. What's the movie? Dylan's like Elrond Hubbard? I know who Elrond Hubbard is. I'm not Lord of the Rings. Oh. I was just gonna go down to Arowan

and get a $45 smoothie. Sorry, I have brain rot. Okay. Before we hear about brain rot, can we speak to our friends over at Mugsy? Mugsy looks great on Randy today, I have to admit. He does look fire tonight. Dylan asked Randy when he walked in

in his Mugsy corduroy shirt, like, do you have a date tonight? Why are you dressed like this? Why are you dressed up? I don't know, cause I don't know. So you don't have a date tonight, just confirming it in an eye that you're not wearing Mugsy. I do not have a date tonight, cause I don't know. So you don't have a date tonight, just confirming it and I that you're not wearing a mugsie.

Can I ask, is this because you haven't unpacked your stuff yet? It's a bit of that. And also I got new hangers in my, I'm doing new hangers. So all my old hangers, if I see a shirt that still has it on, it's like, I need to wear that before I put a new hang on.

So I saw this one, I'm like, yeah, I want to wear this today. Interesting tactic. He just want to look like a little cutie patootie in his mugsie. Thank you.

Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, He said $550,000 in his family's life savings to a streamer just so she'd call him bro. Man, that's a level of desperation that it's really hard to obtain. It's not a good return on investment there. They said he was just eating steamed buns. I don't know if it was your beer roll recipe, but he was just eating steamed buns for a long time, saving his money so he could transfer it to her. I love a steamed bun, man. Said the man who was making deliveries

as a part of his family's hardware business began stealing copper materials and sold the items to waste recycling stations. They eventually figured it out and got him in trouble for it. It says when the authorities show that they had evidence for his financial transactions, Hong confessed to 40 thefts. In total, he had stolen $316,000, all of which he sent to the streamer. But

he said, quote, I didn't want to meet her. I just wanted to hear her call me brother. It's kind of a love story. This is sad. Yeah, but can you put a price on someone calling you their bro? Brothers for life. I haven't heard that in a long time. Brothers for life. Randy calls me big boss man, but like to have a genuine like sitting at Kelly's Irish Pub, pints in hand,

G split and just have your absolute boy look over across the table from you and just say, bro, I'm so glad we did this. Isn't the new Apple AI, doesn't it, like, it's like a friend in your pocket situation. I don't know. And like talk to your phone and it'll talk back like, as if you're having like a real conversation with somebody.

I hope not. It's like the lonely people out there. I think the Google phone has that. Is it Google? Don't those things just make you more lonely? Cause I know you might not feel lonely in the moment, but like when you start relying on like a fake thing, like doesn't that just exacerbate the loneliness

that you're currently experiencing? I don't know, but something like that might go long way for a fella like this, just someone to talk to. Hey, call me brother. I get this though. I had so many like pussy GDIs always saying like, well, I didn't pay for my friends. Yeah, it was worth it Fucking call my bros

You know I'm saying You know I'm saying yeah, for sure. I got you Randy. Yeah, I'll follow follow Some Brothers for life. Are you on the burner verse? Randy? Do you have a burn? Are you okay? Oh Man run the damn ball, dude, I'm trying to find the streamers man eyes. I Don't even know if I want to know. Like what if I get addicted? What if I get addicted to her, dude? I just want to know what's going on here. Like what's the most that you guys

have paid your favorite streamer? Oh, I kind of don't have a favorite streamer. A little bit less. You haven't given Mila Sofia any money at this point. You've given her nothing. Well, she's more than that. She's a singer too now. Oh yeah, I forgot that she started singing, she's more of that. She's a singer too now. Oh yeah, I forgot that she started singing.

She's a triple threat. She's got an album out. It's actually not bad. She's got pipes, yeah. It's catchy. Dang, why is it always like, first step is when you start stealing copper. Yeah.

That's tough. That's how it starts. Next thing you know, all the money's going to the streamer. Did I tell you what happened last time I stole copper? What happened I walked up to and I said and put him up copper Good I put him in my car you reach for his service. We got to clean these streets I got the high-speed chase

Kidnapped the police officer you dude, you know how I was talking about high-speed chases recently. Yeah Yeah, I found out why you don't watch everyone that comes across your timeline. Yeah, they keep watching. I was watching one the other day and they just shot the dude. You see the guy get shot? Yes. Damn, I'm sorry. I was waiting for my plane to arrive,

just sitting there watching a high speed chase at my gate. Suddenly I see a dude's body fall to the ground. I'm like, oh, I think they just shot him. Have you guys seen the one, it's not a chase, but this guy is filming through his car. He's sitting in his driver's seat Filming this old man is walking up to police officer has his gun drawn and he just unloads in his chest while this old man is just like

It's it's filmed from like seven feet away. Have you seen this? No It's fucking gnarly have you ever seen the one where the guy has a sword outside of a motel and like the cops like pull up on him and he like try to tell him multiple times. I put the sword down and he like charges down with the sword and he gets shot. Oh yeah. Did that hit close to home? It was. A little glimpse into the future. It was pretty bad. One of your acquaintances? No, no. That's good. One of my brothers in arms. You wouldn't, you would have just, Tupoku right there.

Dude, I would have been so fast. I would have been able to deflect every single bullet. Okay. Deadpool style. Okay. What we're trying to say is keep your swords at home. Yes. Yes.

Brain rot is the word of the year. Thoughts, concernserns? Parks? Comments? Parks uses that term. How does he use it? Like I don't even, I've never heard someone genuinely use it. Because, so a lot of the kids at school are picking up on all the language that they all use. They all say Sigma and Ohio and Riz and all that shit. What is Sigma? I don't even know what Sigma means. And Parks just goes, Parks will say, Dad that's just brain rot. Like pointless stuff? Yeah. Like stuff you shouldn't and Riz and all that shit. And what does SIGMA, I don't even know what SIGMA means. And Parks just goes, Parks will say, dad, that's just brain rot. Like pointless stuff?

Yeah. Like stuff you shouldn't take in. Exactly. So he's not saying like that'll give me brain rot. He's just saying like that's brain rot. He just calls it out like that's brain rot. Like good for you bud, don't say that. To his credit, he doesn't say any of that dumb shit.

But people at his school do for sure. I thought he was doing Rizzo moves. Oh, he can do, yeah, he does that thing, this thing. He's mewing. He can mew. He's good at it too. I just, I feel like it's sad that we live in a world now where like just trendy internet memes become word of the year

rather than like a sick new word that we could just invent. I feel like Riz would have been a really good word of the year. I think that was last year. That was last year, I think. Okay. But like, should we be going with Riz and Brain Rot? Like these are temporary things that aren't gonna withstand

the test of time. Brain Rot's been around for a minute. At least Riz is just a shortened version of an actual word that has meaning. So do people have Brain Rot permanently or is Brain Rot more a thing that is like, just called out situationally? We don't know the long-term effects of brain rot.

I didn't think about that. I don't think it's a real concern medically. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Hmm. Dictionary.com's where the year was demure. What do you think about that? That's a better one.

But that one was here and gone in like a week. Yeah. It had a very short lifespan. Are they reaching? Are they trying to like get words that'll gone in like a week. Yeah, it had a very short lifespan. Are they reaching? Are they trying to like get words? It'll bring in like a younger crowd. Mm-hmm. They say Oxford getting brain rot and dictionary.Tom is just trying.

I'll tell you if they're reaching. Read this tweet from Merriam-Webster. Slams dictionary shut till December. Really? They're slamming their dictionary shut, Dylan. Wait, but why till December? What's this again? I don't know. I don't know why they took off. They're not looking up words. They did clarify, Dave, unless there's a Thanksgiving family scrabble tournament.

How did that tweet do? Oh, it did pretty good. for them. Yep. They least tag No They don't have to I gave it to the internet No one's slamming a dictionary shut I might I Am if it's Scrabble and I was wrong Was there anything funnier than getting the dictionary in like elementary school and just looking up penis? Yeah.

It's fucking, that was the best. Just sitting there looking up the word jorking with your boys. Jorking. That should be word of the year. Jorking my peanuts. Let's make that next year. Oh, I might just make,

I might make a college burner account and just try to infiltrate. Man, that seems like a colossal waste of time. Who's your team? I think it'd have to be Texas because they already have the stuff. Does Texas, are we too close to it? It seems like Texas doesn't have like a big burner verse.

That we can start it. Because Texas, Texas news fratat these Texas kids are these days. They're too new to the SEC. I don't know. I worry about the frat culture. Let's visit the Fiji house, see what's up. Okay. I know a Fiji we can have introduce us.

That's pretty top tier at Texas, I think. Yeah, oh yeah, I think it's very top tier. It's very top tier. Like Randy wouldn't get a bed right now Would you feel more comfortable going and like having to speak? Announce something in front of a group of feet of top-tier fraternity guys at Texas or top-tier sorority more nervous. Yeah I think I would rather go talk to the sorority. I a hundred percent would I'd be way more nervous if I do You're gonna the sorority they're gonna like immediately see me

and like tune me out like, okay, whatever. They're gonna be dropping like slurs at me. Frat dudes are gonna be just shitting on me in a group chat. Well, Brett and I, Brett and I were just fucking flaming. We were sitting at a restaurant watching a bunch of kids go into the formal and this one guy dropped by after they got kicked out of the formal, TfM, and just started talking to Brett and I at our table.

And I was like, dude, this kid has the most moxie out of anyone I've ever seen in my entire life. Like I want to give this guy a drop right now. Like the way he rizzed us up was just like, whoa. You've got it. It was very demure. Sigma. Geez.

Do we need to leave? Yeah. Yeah, right. Fun one. Fun one. Say the fucking word. Bye. right fun one fun one say the fucking word bye
