All right, we're back. Circling Back Podcast presented by Vizzy Hard Seltzer, the only hard seltzer with vitamin C and superfruit acerola. My name's Will DeFries. To my right, David Ruff. Happy Snowmoon Wednesday. What's snowmoon? February's full moon, known as the snowmoon, will light up the sky this week. Tonight being the night. Why do I know this? That's probably what you're thinking at home.

Well, you're kind of the weather guy. A friend of mine and his wife, they are expecting. They are very due. In fact, I think the due date might be Saturday. I saw them at a social event. Sometimes I go to social events on the weekend. And she told me that she fully expects to give birth today because of the full moon. Interesting.

Not only because of the full moon, but because of the barometric pressure dropping due to a low-pressure system that's somewhere a few hundred, maybe 600 miles northwest of here. Bam, I'd say having a kid is kind of a high-pressure system. It's their second, so she's a veteran at this point. Anyway, so that was cool. And then I asked my wife, I was like, what's the science behind that? Well, I did not get the answer to what said science will be. Apparently, there is something with barometric pressure dropping

and potential giving birth, things of that nature. Anyway. Damn, with this pressure dropping, only time may tell. That's a Toots and the Maytel reference for anyone out there who's just trying to do some pressure drop references right now. Shouts to all the reggae community. Well, I'm really happy to be a guest on the Will DeFreeze party hour. I don't like that.

So we're running a two-man booth today. No, I'm just the guest. That's not happening. Are you trying to get me to make up for lost time after the last two days? This is the Will DeFreeze show. It's not the DeFreeze Will show. Is that an Andy Milonakis reference? No, it's Tom Green.

Oh, yeah. My bad. Same era. Same era. Did you ever follow Jackass Clips on Twitter? No, I need to. I watched Jackass 2 the other night. Great television. I did something that no one is doing when they're sick. I watched zero TV. What did you do? Did you get a switch? I just didn't feel well. And I didn't feel like sitting there. Like, you know, have you ever been-

Sat there and think about stuff? Well, have you ever been so sick that like, even just hearing noise, you're just like, I can't deal with this right now? That was me. Did you read? I did a little reading. I've been reading two books. Not to brag, but yeah, I'm on my reading bullshit in 2022.

I'm really trying to read more this year. Was it Charles Dickens? I'm not reading Charles Dickens. I'm really trying to read more this year. Is it Charles Dickens? I'm not reading Charles Dickens. I'm reading self-help books. I recently got this book that's like, it's all about how it's for people who like used to be pieces of shit that don't want to be pieces of shit anymore. Yeah. And this will help allow you to not be a piece of shit anymore.

I'm reading how to be a boy boss in a girl boss world. Damn. Are there rumors swirling about certain people not enjoying girl bosses winning like dylan i wasn't going to say that but i mean yeah now that you brought it up there might be rumors dylan's out today something came up we're just we're getting sick we're a squad down bad right now did you get him sick i didn't get him sick the only time that i left the house in between, like in the last however many days, was on Sunday when I went to Dylan's Super Bowl party. So a lot of people were speculating that maybe you having six chili dogs got you sick.

Is that true? Can you confirm or deny? I need to go on record saying that no food at Dylan's party got me sick. You that true? Can you confirm or deny? I need to go on record saying that no food at Dylan's party got me sick. You know how I know this? Actually, there's only one thing. There's only one thing that could have gotten me sick at his party. Well, somebody else did get sick, but they were already sick. We found out. Yeah. Whatever. The only thing I ate at Dylan's party, and this is going to sound real soft. Okay. Can I guess? I had two things. Yeah. You had hummus. There was no, no. I thought that was very two things yeah you had hummus there was no no that i thought

that was very interesting there was no hummus at the party there's a a vegetable platter at the party but there's no actual hummus what did you have i had some of the vegetable platter that i dipped into the buffalo chicken dip which i thought was very good you went what you did celery in the buff chick dip i did interesting i also did a carrot in there as well oh and then i had part of the cheeseburger didn't didn't this guy this dylan guy did he talk all this booty chatter about carrots and then you go to a super bowl party and it's just like it's a carrot party well he he said he's he's big on hummus and stuff he even tweeted about it like he's he's tweeted he's a perfect 10 but he didn't bring hummus and vegetables whatever i even tweeted about it. He's tweeted he's a perfect 10, but he didn't bring hummus and

vegetables, whatever. I show up there, there's no hummus to be found at their place. It's just kind of a red flag. It's pretty embarrassing. I wasn't going to say anything, but since you brought it up, yeah. Couldn't be my Super Bowl party. That's why I don't throw Super Bowl parties, because

I don't want to deal with the different palates. I get it. I i mean we can track my stomach issue back pretty accurately to two people in my life who also had the same stomach issue leading up to me so i don't think we got it from food you can guess who it was yeah that guy in the hillary duff photo that you tweeted. Dude, I fucking hate this guy. Who is that? How I Met Your Father is Hilary Duff's new venture on Hulu. I think there's been seven episodes. It's just recently been renewed for a new season. I've heard positive reviews online for this show. I think it might be one of the worst shows I've ever seen.

It's the chugiest show of all time. It has some of the cheesiest writing I've ever heard. They do a thing that I think Curb Your Enthusiasm does a good job of. Like, let's use, for example, the accidental text on purpose. Sure. They took a situation and they made a bit out of it. Are they forcing it? They're forcing it completely.

And I know that they did that on How I met your mother like i don't know oh wait is this from the how i met your mother universe yes same show it's just hillary duff show that i've never watched again with the generational gap the the fact that this show has a laugh track is concerning to me is it like an ironic laugh track no it's just a shitty laugh track that signifies when something's supposed to be funny kind of funny yeah i know what a laugh track does it's just terrible trust me i i discovered that your laugh track uh button on that thing uh it's not just um it's not brief it goes on for about 80 seconds yeah it's a long one well it depends how funny your joke is no brett had one the other day that just brought the house down the show stinks but i've watched every single episode and i'll

continue to watch every episode because one my wife loves it and two i love hillary duff and i will support her through thick and thin that's with two c's i love hillary duff not to get too h right now i'm sorry the gentleman who sits in this chair during too much dip is a big Hilary Duff fan. How can't you be? I mean, we were from an early age, we were watching, you know, Lizzie McGuire. And then as she started to get older, like she has aged like a fine wine and she's just so bubbly and nice. I just love her. When I heard that her house got robbed, I was ready to go on, like, just go completely rogue, take a couple of days off from work and go out to LA and start fighting people. I reached out to her publicist. I volunteered love her. When I heard that her house got robbed, I was ready to go completely rogue, take a couple days off from work and go out to L.A. and start fighting people. I reached out to her publicist.

I volunteered my services. Did they take you up on that? Never got a response. I'm like that Keanu Reeves movie when it comes to Hilary Duff. Which one? The one where someone took his dog and then he killed everybody. Okay. You're thinking of John Wick.

I never saw John Wick. They're awesome. I know. That's all I've heard heard and i really need to see them i mean it's honestly probably perfect at home sick mindless but still keeps your attention cinema maybe i should i thought about maybe just getting into some movies and stuff but it was just it was just not happening you should do john wick sunday I will. Make that a thing. I like Keanu. You can live blog it.

I love Keanu Reeves. We haven't live blogged in a long, long time. Dude, those are exhausting. Those dead. Yeah, well, for me, it was always a major pit out situation. If I was live blogging literally anything, I was pitting out. Did you live blog? When was the last live blog?

Was it Hooters? Probably Hooters. Remember that? So one of the live blogs, we almost got shot at hooters you remember that oh yeah they like had to take some guy out or like told him to leave or something kicked out a regular and he popped trunk he he threatened i think he threatened to come in and all the waitresses were like like huddled in a corner car and like yeah we were just and i like was waiting on my uber and i was like i'm just gonna go it's he's not it's fine sally and i are about to go on a nice little road trip to houston texas that weekend

and she just came and picked me up and i was like yeah i'm gonna go get out of here before uh he sprays the block at hooters i don't want my i don't want my family knowing that i died peacefully at hooters well it wouldn't really be peacefully You don't know. Is that the sound you would make if you got murdered at Hooters? Hooters? And Hooters? Hooters is a spinoff restaurant that I just created. That's the Norwegian version.

Hooters. Hooters. Yeah. Welcome to Hooters. They just have the umlauts over the O's. We talked about Hooters on the Patreon yesterday. How was Patreon yesterday? I think it was really good. We learned a new wayers on the Patreon yesterday. How was Patreon yesterday? I think it was really good.

We learned a new way to refer to a divorce. How's that? A de-vo-vo. Okay. I'm not sure if I'm on board with it. Okay. But look, you send in your worst of stories. We will not only keep you anonymous, I will read,

unless you have some sort of word that I refuse to read, I will read it as is. I won't even edit it. I got curious. Did you listen to anything we did? No, dude. I'm not kidding. I felt horrible.

I didn't want anything to do with any media like, media that I had to take in. The only actual thing that I watched over the last two days was soccer yesterday. Shouts to the EPL and Champions League for scheduling two games at the exact same time. I really appreciate that. Did Real lose? They did. Injury time, Dave. It was tough. I hate that.

Mbappe. I hate that for Luka. You know how Mbappe does. Like, he just makes something out of nothing all the time. And, time. And he did that. But he's going to end up going to Madrid. So it doesn't matter. Wow. That's footy chat with Will. Did you like the launch of our newest Washed Media podcast? Outgoing? Outgoing without going out. I shouldn't say launch. They were already humming along before we started working with them but yeah big fan i was a little bummed that i couldn't be here for the launch of it yeah people were wondering they're like is will protesting like he does not

want this podcast in the network but i shot that down quickly no i'm down with gabby and lexi i was not doing a knee from home the entire time that would have been kind of fucked up marshall mathers did a knee we we haven't got your super bowl take do we know if he did the knee like do we know why he did the knee yeah i think it was solidarity okay so because i saw a lot of people being like actually it's because they were playing tupac and i'm like well i think i think there might be another reason i don't think he was taking a knee for tupac. Yeah. It was a long, long time ago. I don't take a knee when someone dead's music comes on all the time. But I'm also not performing at Super Bowls.

That's fair. Did you see the viral video clip of him talking to Al Michaels after the game? I heard he was fanboying. They were both just fanboying each other. Mainly Eminem fanboying Al Michaels. And I was like, all right, I get it. It's Al Michaels. And I was like, all right, I get it. It's Al Michaels, but... Come on.

You're not meeting the Pope. It's Al Michaels. I don't think I would fanboy with Al Michaels. I would meet him. I would take a pic, throw deuce, probably do very well on Instagram,

but yeah. I think the weirdest thing about meeting someone like that would be hearing their voice straight from their mouth in person. Having a casual conversation with the voice that you've heard since Miracle on Ice. Are there any announcers that you would absolutely fanboy for if you met them? Are we talking...

Aikman? So can we play-by-play or color commentary? Doesn't matter. Color commentary, very likely, because Aikman and those are usually ex-athletes. Play-by-play, no. Maybe Doc Emmerich? He'd be tight? That would be a weird one to talk to in person.

I would want him to do something, though. I'd be the annoying person meeting him being like, hey, can you say something really fast for me really quick? Can you pretend I just went top shelf? I just went Sally on him? No, I think Doc Emmerich, I would probably fanboy with Joe Buck a little bit, even though I'm not like a super fan. I do respect Joe Buck, but he seems like the most down to earth and I would have to ask him about his Liv Moss reads. If I met Joe Buck, I think I would do my best to not

fanboy. And I think I would try my best to like be friends with him and try to get him to go out and have a beer right then. He seems like a guy, and if he's had some sort of substance battle, I don't know about it and I apologize, but he seems like a guy that a night could really turn dangerous when you thought it wasn't going to be dangerous. He thought it was going to be the opposite. Like you go out, have a beer or two. Next thing you know, you get a text like, let's go to another bar. And you're like, oh, fuck. I was going to be in bed by 930. Not happening.

He would love us because we would be, we would just be standing him the entire time as long as he just said, sometimes you got to live Moss over and over.

Hey, i know a lot of y'all want to like make this joke and you're saying hey is dylan not there because it's a snow moon it's just that's not it has nothing to do with the snow not cool guys not cool just purely coincidental yep yep what are we doing what are you going to interview me about can we talk wordle real quick

is that why still one's not here we can finally talk wordle yeah i'm not a wordle player are you no but i've thought about it i think that would be a funny bit if i just dropped the wordle tweet like micah does so wordle is bought by the new york times correct for a low seven figure amount is that how much it was For a low seven figure amount. Is that how much it was? In the low seven figs. Yeah. Seven figs, of course, being in the millions, Randy.

I know nothing about the dude who got the bag from the New York Times for Werdl, but I'm glad that he got the bag. Name's Will. Is it? Will Werdl. That's a good name. Strong name. Billy Words is what we call him, where I'm from. B-dubs?

Yeah, B-dubs. Oh, B-dubs over there. Got the bag bag kind of but like good for him he turned a very basic game into a big payday for himself from the new york times if the new york times comes calling for your your game you got to just give it to him right yeah give him the game sell him the game for a fair market value well ever since the new york times has taken over this kind of thing i think it's been just this week, there's been a lot of complaints on the TL about how the words have gotten a little more difficult. I don't really understand this, why people are complaining that the game has increased in difficulty.

It's this culture we live in. It's just soft, nerf everything. People can't take a challenge. Me, I want it to be more difficult i want to fail because i know i'm going to learn from it just build back better well this this says disgruntled publishers continue to gripe the new york times of making their beloved wordle game too hard the publication is now being accused of trolling millennials with wednesday's wordle of the day with many players deeming it so obscure that only bob the builder

could solve it wait what does bob Builder have to do with this? I don't know why they had to throw Bob the Builder in there. Is Bob the Builder, is he the smartest person we could think of for this situation? Bob the Builder, unless I'm missing something, is a fictional character, correct? A children's character. Randy, am I missing something? Oh, Randy's not even listening. Do you like word games

do you play scrabble you're a boggle guy by any chance no i boggle more than scrabble boggle's one you press little thing yeah yeah boggle's cool mainly because of that i used to play with my ex ex-girlfriend's mom not sure why she and i got into uh playing boggle together i've seen a video that starts like that. Two girls, one Boggle? What? No, I've never played Boggle with any of my love interest's parents, but I'm not opposed to it.

I grew up playing Sorry quite a bit. Remember Sorry? I never played Sorry. Big Sorry guy. I know that's not a word game, but... Is it too late now to play Sorry? That's good. It's really good.

It's good. You're not going to... Here it is. Sorry, they just... Late reaction. It was over their head and then it came back. It was a delay. Yeah.

So I'm a big New York Times mini crossword guy. Hey, thank you for gifting me a New York Times subscription. I got you. I've been reading articles on there. Did you download the app? Most of them are fake news, but I've been reading them. Yeah, it's a failing publication, as everyone knows. They're failing.

What are they doing buying Wordle? Honestly, it might be the best acquisition they could make right now. I'm a big New York Times mini crossword person. And if I can get a mini crossword in under 30 seconds, that is a huge win for me. If I can get it in under 60 seconds, that is still a win for me. Anything over 60 seconds, I feel like I've done myself wrong that day. That being said, if I got it under 30 seconds every single time, I don't think I'd play it anymore because I'd be like, yeah, this is a little too easy for me. The fact that people are complaining that the words are just getting more difficult,

I don't really know what you want. Like, do you just want to be able to put up the green squares on your Twitter every day? Participation trophies, bro. Is the New York Times going to get canceled? Dude, you have to think Wordle is going to be the reason they go down. Yeah, I did see a lot of that. I saw a lot of people that I really enjoy saying, man, this is crazy how hard they've gotten. And I really can't speak to it because as i've never done a wordle but you have my wordle i will be

doing a wordle in the next um in the next three to five weeks okay are we gonna get really laid on wordle just like everything correct a chicago grandmother was rescued from a 17-hour hostage ordeal after police were alerted for the unlikeliest of reasons. A missing solution to the day's Wordle challenge. Denise Holt, 80, was alone at home in Illinois on the 5th of February when a naked and mentally ill suspect

entered her home. Her daughter in faraway Seattle noticed something was amiss when she failed to send her daily Wordle and they sniffed it out from there. Wow. Are we saving lives? I don't know if we are, daily Wordle and they, they sniffed it out from there. Wow. Are we saving lives? I don't know if we are, but Wordle appears to.

I don't understand why people, I understand enjoying Wordle and playing Wordle, but the bigger factor for people isn't playing it and getting satisfaction that they won. The bigger satisfaction is by sharing it with their friends and showing that they're better than them. In this case, it saved a life. And I think that's beautiful. Can I confess something? What? I don't really know when someone posts the grid, their Wordle thing. I don't really know what the different, I assume green is good. I don't really know what to do with that. Like, I don't understand like how to tell who did better. Like if you put

three of them, I don't know if I would necessarily be able to tell you like who did the best. Green means that your letter is correct and in the correct position. Gray means that that letter is not only not in the puzzle, but it's not in the correct position either. Yellow means that the letter is in the puzzle, but it's not in the correct position either yellow means that the letter is in the puzzle it is not in the correct position okay this game is whatever i don't hate the game because i i do like word games and i like using your brain for this kind of stuff but i just am not impressed by anyone's wordle at this point and the fact that they're complaining that it's getting too hard just makes me, I'm not out on the game.

It should make you in on it. It just makes me annoyed that people are complaining that it's too hard. It can't be that hard. Let me tell you this. I grew up playing Battleship. Shit. And you talk about a difficult game. And not even, obviously I played electronic Batthip but for me i was original battleship

and that was tough because your opponent often cheated yeah if you were playing on my block you had some uh some very some some total sickos out there who would cheat during battleship don't like that at all um that being said i will in the next three to five weeks drop a wordle bomb on the twitter and i'll tell you how it goes it's probably going to go poorly i i didn't realize how poorly i've become as at a at typing until we did the typing tests of the last couple weeks come to find out i'm very i think i'm faster than brett i'm definitely faster than dylan maybe i'm not faster than i don't know about you and brett kick brett out of the room so I can just say whatever I want and it'll be canon. When we started today's episode, Brett was just sitting on the couch next to the studio

and it was like, dude, you're just like a voyeur right now. People don't know if they're not watching the video. I am sitting on the other side of the table. I'm not in my usual circling back spot. I've never sat over here for a podcast. It's very odd. I've got to look at randy i get to see how little randy pays attention to the show he's over there doing origami what is that well

you can always just see his you all you see from randy when he's doing the show is his thumb is going to left and right constantly i don't know what he's doing there but it's just he's constantly just going left and right schwab you guys got Schwabs? I see here you would like to talk online grammar in general. Yeah. So like while we're talking about words and being online and stuff, like I'd like to apologize. I spelled Cabernet incorrectly on Scary's meme today. And one person came at my neck for it. And when I put in here that I was going to talk about this, I was going to make fun of that person for correcting people's grammar online.

That is the lowest form of online criticism that you can get. But they have since apologized and told me that there's no ill will. When you found out that you misspelled that, that had to have been devastating. Did any part of you say delete this? No. For people out there that don't use Photoshop, Photoshop has no spell check feature. So the fact that I have like one grammatical error a month on Sunday Scaries is actually pretty impressive. And so I never feel the need to archive anything

or do whatever. I almost had a pretty embarrassing one the other day. What? I did a liver king tweet at dcarderuff on Twitter, at dcruff on Instagram. Did a liver king tweet referencing his nine tenants. And I almost spelled tenants as if he was a landlord, which is a really funny scenario if the liver king is your landlord.

If you want to go down that road, we can. But I caught it before I hit send. And I was like, man, that would have been one that I would have left it up. But I would have been pacing back and forth thinking about that one. Twitter's a different case. If I have an egregious error on Twitter, I'm like, eh, maybe I should just delete this before there's too much action on this tweet. On a meme that's already been up and has like a thousand likes, I'm not taking that down. That's not going to make anyone happy.

Speaking of Twitter, I was looking at my drafts. Speaking of Twitter, I was looking at my drafts. So I was telling Brett and Randy, I'm listening to this Fall Out Boy. I've been listening to Fall Out Boy radio. Why? Because I wanted to – we had this debate like two months ago about Fall Out Boy versus The Killers. We had a better catalog. And I realized like I might just be old man yelling at Cloud, riding so hard for The Kill the killers and saying that fallout boy doesn't have the depth in their catalog fine so I've decided to

listen to a little bit more and then I was like okay I'm just gonna get into more pop punk it's been forever and so I started listening and there's a lot of good Charlotte on there and let me be clear I don't think good Charlotte's good they've got a couple catchy songs they've got a couple catchy songs that have catchy parts but I have a tweet that I never sent. And I it's one that I don't know what song it's from, but it's basically the intro of it is this song is for this song is dedicated to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class. And I had a tweet that said today, I'm exclusively listening to songs that are dedicated to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class and my wife that's a good charlotte one right

correct my wife talked me out of it she goes no one's gonna know what that is i don't i i would i would know what that is i'm not gonna send it it's still in my drafts i didn't delete it but i hosted a tweet the other day not for just for only reasons of me just being a wimp you ready for this you guys you see the kelsey grammar news out there i saw he was trending he's okay right yeah he was kind of getting canceled people were trying to cancel him oh no he went to a party at mar-a-lago oh and he was photographed to uh urban bucksome ladies okay um is he i honestly this it sounds like this kind of sounds to me And he was photographed to Buxom Ladies. Okay. Honestly, this kind of sounds to me like the plot of a Frasier episode in 2022. Like Frasier unknowingly goes to a party at a hotel and then gets canceled from his show because he was at Trump's place.

I don't know where he stands on the spectrum currently, but I know back in the day he was a noted Hollywood conservative. hollywood conservative he's trumpy for sure okay for sure you keep up with them more than me yeah but i like i'm a i'm a frazier fan i can't speak to any of his work after frazier as much of it has been shitty can you separate the man from the art there's even some frazier episodes that maybe people should revisit and maybe have a conversation about there's one in particular that's bad i think that's everything that went down in the 90s well michael scott said they could never make the office now because of some of the jokes they made and as sally's been watching the office a lot lately while you know doing fritz stuff i'm like oh yeah that joke would be a tough one in in 2022 season one for sure seasons one through three definitely i think the joke that i was thinking of was it was a very sexist joke that michael scott made and i the only reason i knew that it

was not season one is because i looked at his hair and i was like oh he's got more hair that's season two season one is when he had the slick back right and it was like clear clearly like had just gotten hair restoration yeah it was a little spotty it was like clear, clearly like had just gotten hair restoration. Yeah. It was a little spotty. It was a bad look. How did we go down this road? Oh, Kelsey Grammer. Yeah. Shouts to Wordle though.

So wait, was he, was he at Trump's Superbowl party? I don't think he was. I think he was just at a party. Okay. Cause we did talk about that because they, Trump was at wherever watching the Superbowl with, uh, Urban Meyer. You saw the news there, right? Maybe not. You've been off the grid.

I did. I did see that. Urban's Chophouse is no more. It's been sold. Oh, I did not see that. Yeah. That's too bad. I think they're pivoting.

They're moving on from Urban. Say we went on my dream vacation of going on a Scottish golf trip with weekends filled with going to soccer games. Let's just say breakfast beers, Randy. Say we're in Aberdeen. I don't know what we're doing there.

We want to play golf that day. Are we not allowed to go play the Trump international golf links in Aberdeen? Oh, that is a Trump spot. Like, are we going to get canceled if we go play that? Cause like,

I kind of want to go play though. I think you can i think you can separate the man from the from the international golf course art yeah no i mean he just has his name on it he didn't like did he build and design the course i did i think i think he was out there just doing it can you imagine he was just punching the holes no look at the end of the day you don't want to follow the money on anything. Anything that takes that much investment, you don't want to follow where that money came from. Are you talking just like this is just a blanket statement?

Yes. So let's say that there was a young lady who was once involved with some very famous and powerful people. who was once involved with some very famous and powerful people. And let's say that she had some allegations that she threw out to a member of a royal family, hypothetically, maybe in the UK. And maybe she recently got a big payday rather than going to court over those allegations. Are you saying that the money that she was paid might've come from an unsavory place? I'm saying that most money at some point will run from an unsavory place. Yes. I'm saying that the financial institutions out there, many of them deal or have dealt with dirty money at some point. Yes. That's a very broad statement, but I listen to a lot of podcasts okay all it takes is dylan not being here for

us to start just like inching towards less waxer content i just finished the oliver stone jfk one there's a new documentary on peacock about epstein that i think i'm gonna have to dip into not proud of it i've already seen i've already seen every documentary there is to watch about epstein at this point and like it's kind of just regurgitating the same information i need like a I've already seen I've already seen every documentary there is to watch about Epstein at this point and like it's kind of just regurgitating the same information

I need like a deep state one but you'll never see that on a main outlet you won't ever see intelligence ties talked about even the podcasts are like not going

deep enough for me at this point well you gotta get some of them might be going a little too deep I can point you in the right direction there

what was the one you did IJB uh what oh yeah check out it's just banter no that's our I can point you in the right direction there. What was the one you did? IJB? Oh, yeah. Check out It's Just Banter. No, that's our friend Jake and TC's pod. We did talk Epstein, but no. The Truinon folks have one that, I mean, they went to Maxwell's trial every day and did a pod after every, each day, which I'll be honest, I did not listen to a lot of those just because I've had to go and follow everyone that I was following during that time.

Sure. Because I was just getting updates on stuff I didn't need to know anymore. Are you still following the journalist? Is it Classfield? Yeah. He got the follow because he's just a quality Twitter follower. I think he's a good journalist. He just knows, he knows how to cover things.

Hey, there's still people out there doing good journalism, Randy, despite what you've always said. Dude, he's, he's the biggest critic. I think he turned off your mic once he heard that you were a New York Times guy. No, it's tough. Let's talk about our friends over at Chime real quick. You can kick off 2022 with a better checking account with no monthly fees. That sounds pretty nice. Chime is an award-winning app and debit card that have no overdraft fees, foreign transaction fees, monthly fees, or service fees. And with over 60,000 fee-free in-network ATMs at many locations like most Walgreens, 7-Elevens, CVSs, you can access your money when you need it, where you need it. And you can also send money to anyone, even if they aren't on Chime. It's fee-free for you and no cash out fees for them. Sally always gets mad at me because I'm like, no,

I got to go to an ATM without fees. I'm not going to go deal with this. This is a solution that just makes everyone's life easier. Dude, no monthly fees is huge. I mean, it's just great. I remember one of the first accounts I had after college. I didn't realize how much I was giving away in fees. And then I realized it like 10 years later. I was like, wow, that's quite substantial. Well, for a long time, I thought that's just how it was. Me too.

I was like, oh, well, I'm parking my money here. It makes sense that they would charge me rent for this money that I'm parking here. Call me crazy. I dig this analogy. Make your first good decision in the new year and join over 10 million people using Chime. Sign up only takes two minutes and doesn't affect your credit score. Get started at Chime.com slash Steam. That's Chime.com slash Steam.

Sometimes pay anyone. Instant transfers can be delayed. The recipient must use a valid debit card or be a Chime member to claim funds. Let's talk about something that we're both confronting right now. Male pattern baldness. I'm not confronting that quite yet.

I am worried it's getting thin up there, though. Okay. What are we doing? Oh, we're switching hairdressers. Or you are. Maybe. Well, no, I'm not. I'm not.

Hey, look, I don't want to. You speak for yourself. I apologize. I'm in a situation right now where my hairdresser, who I've had since I moved to Austin, she's having a child, and that's a beautiful thing. She's on maternity leave. Honestly, I hope she takes as much maternity leave as she needs as a lot of people in this country don't get nearly enough time off to be with their newborn child.

This podcast is not afraid to go there. We're not. We're not. Now that Dylan's gone, we can really get political. He'd be like, guys, guys, tone it down. Hey, dude. You're going from Epstein to maternity leave? That's a lot uh but it's kind of left me in a in a lurch is that the word a bind bind a lurch i

don't know maybe that works i don't fucking know like i've had to i've had to switch things up i i've had to i've had to go go through the motions of trying to explain how my hair's been cut for the past five years even though i don't really know how it's been cut for the past five years. I just go sit down and she does it. But then you brought up something today because you're having trouble locking down an appointment that like now you have to go through all the small talk again when you get to know somebody. Yeah, I am. I'm kind of in panic mode right now and we can get to that later, but yeah, no, it's the thought of, this is a lot like, this sounds a lot like dating. It's like,

you've been in a long-term relationship. Let's say you've been dating somebody for five years and you got to get back in the game and you know, you're going to have to go on a number of dates only like instead of dates, it's you just sitting there getting your haircut, but you're going to have to have a small talk. And at this point, I I'm just, I don't want to have that conversation. I don't, I already am awkward enough explaining what I do for a living to someone, a stranger. And I don't want to do that again. And where I'm at, I've been, I've been going to the same person for the last year. same person for the last year. I even followed her to her new place from the old place, which is conveniently like 500 yards away from this office. I didn't even take that into consideration that you followed her. And you know, is she missing now? I puppy dogged her all the way

over there. Cause I was like, you, you know, I don't even have to say anything. You cut my hair. It's fine. And you do a good job. And it's not awkward because I haven't seen you for long enough. You were getting great haircuts from her. People message me. They're like, Dave, I was watching the video. Did you get something done to your hair? I'm like, no, I'm just getting it cut better.

She was killing it. And now she's gone off the grid? I didn't realize. I made an appointment last week or two weeks ago. Thinking I was being good, like not waiting until the week of scrambling taking a bad appointment I was like I'm gonna get on this early I went to check to see when my appointment was this week and it was with a different hairdresser and I went on the site and tried to rebook with my hairdresser said no time's available so I've been calling i emailed and have called this place and i'm probably gonna sound like a psycho though they're just like who is this simp calling for like

leslie hypothetically speaking here's what i also want to avoid more so even than small talk with a different hairdresser i would i want to avoid me booking with someone else at that location and her walking even though she told me they don't take it personally, which makes sense. Like if you need a haircut and I'm not available. Yeah. I still don't want to deal with that. I don't want to like, I'm like sitting there and you know.

Dude, they say they don't take it personally, but like. I would. I would take it personally. I would absolutely take it personally. What if a day one backer was like, yeah, you know, I just don't listen anymore. I'm fully, I'm fully mail in. I just don't, I don't, I needed some other content. I'd be like, you know, I'd say like, hey, as long as you're in the network, that's cool.

But I'd be like, really? What the fuck? What do we do? I would somehow blame myself for that scenario. I'd be like, man, what did I do? I was volume shooting when I was hosting. That's fine. Well, today I was singing.

I got my haircut today at 7 a.m., which no one's doing. That's insane, by the way. Someone does hair today at 7 a.m which no one's doing that's insane by the way that they even someone does haircuts at 7 a.m he told me he loves doing it at 7 a.m because he gets out at 2 and it makes his day just feel extremely long yeah and i was like you know what that's probably a good call and it is snow moon wednesday true true and like today i think our my small talk today was actually a step back but they came up with an ipad in the middle of my haircut and she's like yeah we'd like to schedule you for next time. And I was like, you know, I got some news for you.

Like, I have to bow out of this scheduling because my girl's coming back. Did you tell them that? I did. Or did you make something up? No, I told them that. That's very mature of you to be like, hey, look, here's the deal. This was always going to be temporary. I'm going back to my day one.

But now I'm scared because, like, he's been doing a great, he's been doing a great job cutting my hair. This is the first time I've ever had a guy cut my hair and he's killing it. It's shorter than it normally is, but it's growing in wonderfully. It looks good, man. I'm scared. I think now, because it's more expensive to go to this place. I think now I'm going to go back to my normal hair person. But if I have like a wedding or something to go to, maybe like we're going to do like an event, like a meetup occasion i think i might keep him as my special occasion mix-in back he's my marion barber pun intended pace back that's a very obscure football reference you are a cowboys guy yeah i'm i'm cowboy superfan number one. Yeah, this is awkward.

I'm actually like, because I want to get a haircut, and we've got Dylan's bachelor party coming up in a couple weeks, and I want to have a fresh cut going into that. So I've got time, but I don't want to wait until the last minute. I don't want to go in there looking all tapered up like Dylan was a few weeks ago. I want to give it time to breathe and let it grow out

a couple days. How many weeks has he separated from his last haircut that he was freaking out about? A couple weeks? I think three. Because I was taking

a video of something at his Super Bowl party. It was him on the glizzy grill. And he immediately turned around and he's like, dude, are you getting my hair? And I was like, dude, Dylan,

it's grown in. You look like a normal person right now. How is that still owning real estate in his mind that he has a fade in the back of his head a fade that even when he got it didn't look bad i would none of us would have ever said a thing i got faded up today and like i don't even know what it looks like you go taper yeah all right look i'm gonna give you honest knee jerk first impression go all right i'm gonna turn around this is really good podcasting. Pull your hood down a little bit.

That's a nice touch. I don't, I don't see it. I'm not going to stress about it. I don't care. You didn't do the mirror thing? I don't know how to. So you don't know how to do it. You don't know how to look into a mirror?

No. Because this dude. To see in another mirror? My left and right. I can't do lefts and rights. So when they hand me the mirror, I't i never know like do i go this way one side or the other dude i don't know how to do it i had to put i had to throw him the rock and let him like i just put it to the left the right side of my head and then i just let him

spin me until it made sense i just hand my girl my phone and say we take a portrait mode photo of my neck and i'll take a look at my back no yeah my neck? And I'll take a look. In my back? No. Yeah, I don't know. I'm in a predicament here. I don't look. At some point, you know, like when you look at a resume and you see that the person you might be considering has worked like five jobs in the last three years. And they're not like, I don't know, a lot of times in the recruiting world, that can be a red flag. I don't think necessarily in these times it is, but that was how it used to be. If I'm the guy who's been to like

three different hairdressers in the last two years, that's a red flag on me. Yeah, you got to start wondering if it's you. It might be a me thing. Are you concerned that they're not answering your phone calls? They don't. Yeah, I am. I think they got me blocked. Have you left a message no but i sent an email and i think it might be one of

those like automated ones that like you can't reply to but i at least put in my due diligence there they're gonna end up if you leave a voicemail they're gonna end up playing it for like all the hairdressers they're making fun of me right now god this guy is such a simp they're sitting at the bar pouring scotch for some 40-year-old tech guy, and they're just laughing at me. They're pulling up my Instagram. Is that that guy that's obsessed with What's Your Face? He just comes in here.

No, I'm not. I'm obsessed with routine and consistency. I just don't want to do this again. I've been making a lot of changes in my life lately, Dave. Are you about to do an ad read? No. Okay, good. I've been reading a book called Atomic Habits.

Have you seen this book? It's the new wave. Everyone's talking about it. It's been out for like three years. Is that by the same person who did How to Win Friends and Influence People? Probably. But I've been trying to break up my routine lately and try to make some positive changes in my life because I think I've settled into too much of a routine.

Like a 7 a.m. haircut. Yeah, exactly. What time did you have to get up for that? My alarm went off at 620. I mashed the snooze button, but before the second snooze alarm went off, Rosie was whining to get fed, so I had to go hit that farmer's dog with her. Okay. Damn, that was an unnecessary farmer's dog flex. I'm sorry.

They should sponsor this pod. It's quality food. But I've been trying to assess some of my habits, and I've been trying to see what negative effects these habits have on my life. And one negative effect that I've had recently is that I sleep on my right side primarily. We're dog in the bed people. My dog sleeps at the top of our bed. Oh,

okay. He sleeps in or she sleeps between our pillows. Yeah. It's not great, but it's, it is what it is. We can't really do anything about this, but I,

I, because she has terrible breath or it's either her terrible breath in my face or it's her butt in my face. I always find myself sleeping on my other side, my right side. So that I'm facing away from her. You brush her teeth uh no but i think the people that cut her hair do okay it's not as easy as it sounds no they're dogs yeah i've got i bought these little these little finger brushes it sounds weird you know you put it on it's got the bristles

you put that thing in randy's like what the fuck randy would just run to the other end of the house can i get one of those from you to try it yeah i'll bring you one well so i'll bring you an unused one yeah that'd be that'd be preferable whatever we're our family shares toothbrushes it doesn't matter we can just actually we'll use our sonic air on her y'all just have like one one toothbrush sitting in the shower like next to a soap dish it has like four bristles on it at this point they've just all fallen off no so rosie's always there and over the past few days with the stomach bug as do you know that sleeping on if you lay on your left side that helps you relieve

gaseous pressure within your stomach are you aware of this no so what everyone's always told me like oh you have got got some gas you got to get through get on that that left side wait so it makes you get rid of said gas correct so during the stomach thing i was having this issue and finally i i brought it to the table and i was like sally i have a question for you can we switch sides of the bed well mind blown because you're all because you read a book no this wasn't because of the book well it was kind of because of your dog's booty hole being in your face is switching sides of the bed after living somewhere for a full year like is that is that an unsavory move that's that's your version of spicing things up like i i feel like it's a weird

move i did one night on the other side of the bed i woke up and i was like i can't do this anymore it's just some kind of role playing yeah i'm the i'm the i'm the woman now she's me now she's trying to grow her beard out she's she's switching hairdressers but as we speak is it psychotic to switch sides of the bed have you ever done this when you go to a hotel do you sleep on the same side of the bed in that hotel room as you do when you're at your house no we have a thing where i sleep closer to the window sally sleeps closer to the door wherever i fall down drunk man damn where'd you sleep when you were sharing a room with dylan did you guys share a bed in new orleans or did you guys not share a bed we had separate beds oh you did yeah i just left my stuff on your bedside table every

night so i'm not sure you really did i think i sharing it. I think I'm staying with Clay in Vegas. I mean, I'm staying with Micah. I will be getting a key to someone else's room just in case Micah snores. I've shared a bed with Micah. He snores though, doesn't he? I don't want to add him, but yeah. Well, he did.

He's in much better shape now than he was then. This was pre-fight Micah. My sister-in-law's boyfriend is also going to be on the trip staying at the same hotel and I think I might just get one of his, like, room keys

and I think I might just sleep on the couch if I need to one night. You know a thing I do when I go on bachelor parties? I try to, I try to stay with everyone one night.

Like, and I, you know, I know that's not feasibly possible but like, if there's a nap going down, I'll be like, hey,

let me come in and nap with you. I mean, I napped in your bed. Yeah, I don't know if that was a nap going down i'll be like hey let me come in and nap with you i mean i napped in your bed yeah i don't know if that was a nap or just you falling asleep it was a nap it was like a 15 minute nap before we went out the fact that we went out was still impressive very impressive definitely had nothing to do with me getting covid but how long after sleeping in your sleeping situation are you allowed to actually flip the switch and go oppo? I could see Sally not being down with that. If you have two sinks in your bathroom, which is like a nice flex.

We don't have that anymore. We just have one sink. But in our apartment, we had two sinks. We each had our sink. What if one day I was just like, hey, can we switch sinks real quick? That would never happen. She has the power sink. My sink. So we do have two sinks in our main bathroom. hey can we switch sinks real quick that would never happen she has the power sink my sink so

we do have two sinks in our our uh main bathroom and she has the the face towel rack my side does not have a face towel rack next to the sink i have the i have the terrible scenario where i have to turn around and use a bath towel that's hanging. Are you fucking kidding me? What the fuck am I doing? Are you fucking kidding me? It's a fucking nightmare. Gross. I just, I'm just all turned around. So none of this, this is not an elaborate bit.

I thought you were leading me down. You're really reading this book? Yeah, but it's, I mean, has it made me rethink some of my destructive behaviors? Yes. Is it the sole reason I asked to switch? No. But I feel like my back has been out of whack lately.

I've been waking up with stomach issues because I'm sleeping all on one side around my stomach, which just makes me feel gross. Your tum-tum. And I want to switch sides of the bed, but it just doesn't feel right. It just seems like a weird move. You should do it, but you should get back into your whoop and track your sleep and see if you sleep better.

I don't hate that move. I'm kind of on an aura ring at this point. Why? Because it doesn't... It's not as intrusive? Well, do you know what the red flag is of aura rings? They're not meant to be worn on your ring finger. They're more effective if they're on your middle finger or your index finger. I'm not wearing a ring on my middle finger.

Can you imagine me showing up to the bar with my wedding ring on and then an Oura ring on the next finger? I would absolutely never let you hear the end of it. Once I heard that, I was like, that's a deal breaker. Hopefully, Oura ring never wants to drop the bag on this pod. I think that the technology they have is quite impressive. If they can ever make it so it's on your ring finger, I might entertain that. Whoop should have just gotten in with like Pfizer and like put like a baby microchip in the vaccine. I thought there was a possibility that like they were going to get like national recognition for their technology throughout

the entire process. They still might. a lot a lot of stuff that people dismissed a year ago even a few months ago you're starting to see more mainstream outlets even the cdc like talk about like like vitamin d deficiency that's that's the reason why i'm like oh i've been taking people you know i've been on my vitamin d shit yeah for like early on they're like oh people are like oh yeah well if you have vitamin D deficiency, it hits you harder. And a lot of people were like, oh, no, that's dangerous to say. And now, like you see yesterday, some mainstream outlet's running with that. That being said, Whoop, two years ago, was like, we're noticing people getting a spike.

Whoop tracks your heart rate. This is not a Whoop ad. They don't sponsor this pod. They almost did. They gave us a free year. Did they? I think I'm paying for mine. Well, the year has since expired. Fuck. Yeah. And I didn't wear, I haven't, I haven't been wearing mine. I've retired from the whoop life. And, uh, now I did get charged for three months, not knowing that I was getting charged for it. Well, it tracks your respiratory rate while you

sleep. And a lot of times when you see a spike in that, it can mean you're fighting something or you're breathing more because you've got, you know, something with your lungs. And when I did get COVID, it tracked perfectly with the Woot. Like I had my, my recovery tanked in the respiratory rate shot up like two more breaths a minute or something overnight, like the normal. And that is something. so it wouldn't be shocking if if you started seeing more of that come out like more mainstream outlets be like oh yeah this health device i'm about to ab test my bedroom i don't know if sally's gonna want to like just go through the motions of me switching sides of the bed with my whoop on and looking at our stats every what if you slept

what if you slept with your head on the other end of the bed? Ooh. I have thought about switching, like doing something with the mattress, but I got this mattress through a sponsored ad deal from Grand X Days, and I think it might just be time to re-up. How often are you supposed to switch mattresses?

Randy's got like the Rolls Royce of mattresses. I don't know. I feel like we've had the same mattress for a minute How often do you switch mattresses? You know none of this really applies to me Because I kind of did the same thing you're thinking about doing Only instead of switching spots I'm sleeping on the couch Because I'm in the doghouse baby

Hey it ain't good man It's pretty cold at home. I feel like I'd sleep better on my couch at this point. I've had some good nights. Well, I have not actually done a full night's sleep on the couch, but I've done some napping on the couch. I've got a good napping couch. I woke up on Friday night. I woke up at 1.30 in the morning on my couch and my phone was in my hands still on my chest with one TikTok just playing on repeat. And I think I had fallen asleep around 11 o'clock that night. So for two and a half hours, I watched the exact same TikTok from some like low level barstool content creator. They got about 5,000 5 000 loops from me if you do that do those loops count towards their loops i have no clue

like can you use the stats on tiktok just sit there i don't think you can i think it's all about likes most tiktok is really bad but whatever that dude's name is from barstool i was like hey you just got the algorithm is loving you right now because I just watched your shit for two and a half hours. You just got loops, player. Yeah. You know what? I've been doing more. What's the Instagram version of TikTok?

Is it just their reels? Yeah. I've been doing more of that than TikTok. And let me tell you, it's not much better. It's not better at all, actually. I refuse to get into watching reels in the same fashion that you do TikTok. I think it's a dangerous game to play. I also did something when I was feeling sick yesterday.

I deleted TikTok from my phone yesterday. It's not a permanent deletion, but I deleted it yesterday because I was like, I could see myself without the TV sitting here all day on a sick day, just looking at TikTok for like hours on end. And I was like, I can't do this. I got to delete this shit. I got out. Most of the stuff that i get served on

reels and tiktok it's either it's either mma it's a lot of golf that includes young ladies who golf just on the driving range driving and work potentially wearing like a new year's eve outfit or something and then it's like animal it's like it's like animal fight videos but like yeah like a lion a lion fighting a hyena or something i'm like at first i'm like i'm not watching that then i'm like yeah i'm definitely watching that yeah and then i get served more and more and a lot of it's bad content a lot of it's just crap like they don't even show what happens it's just like they just have like some music blaring in the background some like uh dance music from a far away land and i'm just watching this i'm watching this cheetah fight a

hyena over uh over a carcass that's better than me i'm hearing the same fucking shit on tiktok over and over again because you passed out the machiavelli or whatever it is what's what's the what's the one? There's some new sound and I'm so sick of it. I can't do it anymore. I can't listen to these people. I just hate it. I'm not familiar.

Consider yourself lucky. I do have something that I could add to this rundown real quick, impromptu, that has to do with my hairdresser. Okay. Did I tell you what I did yesterday? No. Oh, yes. My hairdresser, once, she told me last time I was there that she's had clients who have gotten,

who had received a stem cell or, I guess, PRP therapy for their hair, and that it looks great and you can't tell. And it's so much better than the other ones. Me, I'm like, dude, I don't care either way. I do care, obviously. Otherwise I wouldn't have gone to the lengths that I did, but I was like, I'll look into it. And she's like, and I don't think it's that expensive. Okay. Cause I know some of those restoration things are very expensive. Looked into it i thought i found a place i found a website a worldwide website booked a consultation told them why i was booking it went out there this place was in far north austin near cedar park off 183 very very far north uh like 25 minutes north of where we're at now

yeah i'm not driving there for pretty like just anything i get there and it's uh and they're very nice and i like the office but it's a small office and it's like a the place is called i don't even know what it's called but it's like a spinal spinal spinal institute something they do chiropractic and i get in there i'm like okay i knew that was the name of the place i just thought they did like cast a wide net they do a lot of different things um so i'm in there fill out the paperwork which is by far the worst part about going to a doctor other than getting terrible i had to do that my new hairdresser last week or last month it's like how much paperwork do you need to cut my hair it should have been a red flag when like the the

sheet that has like the the human body and you have to like circle where the pain is that i did i just left it blank i was like oh there's no pain no whatever it's fine you just circle your heart yes my ego yeah just my my my sensitive tears uh so i go back there and i tell the guy why i'm there and he informs me they don't do that and i was like but his reasoning for why they don't do that's the best part. It was not on the website. Or no, it was on the website. And apparently they don't know, either they can't change it or they don't know how to change it.

But he says, yeah, it's just not something we do anymore. They don't know how to edit the website. So they're just taking people into the office. Did they try to upsell you on anything when you got, no, in fact, the dude was, you know, maybe my age, really cool guy. Like we were vibing, man. He's playing golf. Like, should we hang with him? He was telling me, we were talking about, um, we started talking about, uh, you know, nagging back and shoulder issues. And then we started talking about testosterone and how he's, you know, maybe going to look into the, getting that hair procedure done.

Cause his girlfriend told him he might be thinning up top and there was this whole thing. So I'm in there for like 20 minutes, just talking to this guy about like all sorts of stuff. I was like, all right, man, we'll see you later. I was like, yeah, if you got any back issues or anything, you want to get worked out. Do you have to pay for this? No, they didn't charge me, but good. But I did have to, I did pay for it on my way back down 360 when there was worked out. Do you have to pay for this? No, they didn't charge me. Good. But I did pay for it

on my way back down 360 when there was a wreck. Well, Stamps.com has taught us anything. Time is money. It absolutely is. Oh, I heard the wreck on Mopac yesterday was brutal.

I heard it was a 360. Oh, okay. There was a fire on Mopac yesterday. Yeah, I heard it was really bad. So I just drove out there. I got smoked yesterday, man. Dude, I can't do it. Like, coming from northern Michigan where every appointment is like 15 minutes away,

moving to Austin, appointments are like 45 minutes away, and it just completely deters me from doing anything that contributes positively to my health. Should I go get a physical for the first time in like six years? Yeah, I definitely should. You should. I just haven't done it. I don't want to. I don't want to drive that far.

Do you think you would pass a physical? Is that like a pass fail thing? I don't know. I think I would do okay. I think I had the last physical I got was for life insurance. I need to do that. You really do need to do that. Stop.

I know I do. Ladder life. Code Scaries. Let's talk about this weekend in fun real quick baby what's this what about the psychotic couple move that was switching sides of the bed oh you're the psychotic couple yeah sorry oh i didn't realize that i is it a weird move it's weird not having dylan here to is it a weird move for me to try to switch sides of the bed? Let's put a fork in this. Yes.

Where? Yes. Yeah. I will say, yes, it is. After all these years? Yeah. I don't think it's going to hold. And I think I might still try.

Well, you should just tell your dog to not sleep on the bed. I know for a lot of people that's not an option. I like it. No, I get it. It makes me happy. In the morning, dude, Randy, when Alyssa gets up, Randy gets up and readjusts and lays down perfectly behind my knees. And like, I feel bad getting up because I'm like, dude, this is as good for him as it is for me.

It's just, yeah. Sometimes they tighten up the comforter a little bit too much. It makes a little claustrophobic. Randy disrespected my claustrophobia the other day. You're talking about human Randy. Dude, human Randy. Dude, the other day I was like sitting, I don't even remember what we were doing, but Randy started inching closer and closer to me. And I was like, Hey dude, you got to move. I'm getting super claustrophobic right now. And like, I didn't want to sound like a diva or like

I was freaking out, but there was something about the situation where i was feeling incredibly claustrophobic and it was to the point where i almost shoved randy out of the way i was spelunking what were we doing do you know what we were doing yeah we were at fix for for dinner and he trapped me in some chairs and i was like dude you have like i'm about to shove you wait was this the dinner that we before our night out it was dangerous night yeah and he disrespected it like he did it only you should only have someone tell you that they're getting claustrophobic once before you back up and it took me four different times to tell randy dude you got to back off i'm about to freak out it doesn't happen that often to me to get claustrophobic

like that but randy just it went in one ear and out the other is very disrespectful randy just doesn't respect people's space. I heard Randy got kicked out of a bar recently. No, I'm just kidding. Let's talk about this weekend of getting kicked out of bars. Let's talk this weekend in fun presented by Bird Dogs. Bird Dogs shorts, pants, joggers, whatever you need. They've got the built-in underwear.

They're the most comfortable, comfortable built-in underwear you've ever had. So many people out there don't even know what it feels like to wear a pair of chinos with built-in underwear in them. And I have to say, it's something that I very much enjoy. Same. There's been a lot of talk. Some might call it hullabaloo about Dylan's bachelor party in Las Vegas. And I can almost guarantee, almost guarantee that when we go sit down for our steak dinner on Friday night, I will be wearing a pair of bird dogs, performance pants,

man. That, that entire weekend is going to be just a bird dogs activation. That pool scene. Yeah. Everything. Yeah. Yeah.

I will hop in with you. I saw Jack Hammer. I saw Danny Regs at the gym yesterday, and he asked me, do you have a fourth open? Because I'd love to play golf this weekend. And I said, I don't, but I will let you know. if you want me to play golf with you and potentially danny regs let me know dan's just out there with that new tat dude new tat dan is different looks good lighthouse do we know why it's a lighthouse yeah i don't know if he wants me that's fine you don't have to say anything i just want to know do we know yeah i i'm not in as close communication with

Eh? Not a lot going on this weekend. I'm going to watch Riviera this week. I've been cooped up, man. I'm freaking out.

I've been... You okay? I had big plans last weekend. They all got canceled besides the Super Bowl party. I only really left our place last weekend to go to the Super Bowl party. Then I got sick. I've been cooped up. I'm like a rabid dog trying to get out right now. Oh, so you're trying to get

out. I would like to. Yeah. I'm freaking out, dude. I haven't done anything in months. It feels like about going on a bender. No, I don't want to go on a bender. I just want to have one night that, that toes the line of dangerous without actually getting dangerous. That's pretty much at 37. And that's where I'm at. All i'm looking for is something that could escalate out of control but doesn't i just want the option you know what i mean it's like i want to be out and i want to get invited like hey we're going to uh ballerina what's that place ballerina sounds sick what's that what's that crazy bar where they plays all the old school like new wave music i don't know it's open till like four randy barbarella barbarella not ballerinas

ballerina sounds i want to i want to get the invite like hey we're going to barbarella's i'm like man that sounds like a lot of fun i'm gonna go home and sleep on the left side of my bed something i've decided i'm going to do and it's because i was driving when i was driving my haircut today i passed a bar don's depot that we never go to right goes there every once in a while but we never go there it's a good spot every once in a while, but we never go there. It's a good spot. And I always think to myself, like, I never think about those places to go to after we get dinner somewhere. I need to make a list of underrated bars on my phone that my drunk mind can just open that list and be like, let's go here instead of going to this other bar that we go to way too often. Dylan's not here, so we can just say it Dirty Bills Talk about

Claustrophobic Is it Klaus or Kwas? Klaus Claustrophobic? That's a callback No it's stupid No that bar is just too crowded And even though like

I don't want to wait in line no i if i'm waiting in a line at this point in my life things have gone wait things are like that bar's operating above what i need we did wait in line a couple fridays ago for bee's knees special occasion now the people in front of us were very engaging they spoke to us and the line they kept us entertained it's actually it's actually a healthy thing if you mix it up with people in line, then you see them inside. Hey,

there's remember me from the line back then? Like, yeah, dude, how about that line? Yeah, we were all in it. I did an old bit.

I did an old bit that, uh, I haven't done in a long time and I don't think you loved it when I did it. I told, uh, somebody that we were waiting in line next to that you were once on the real world. Do you remember this?

No. I was like, yeah, I was like, I was like, Hey, don't like say anything, but like this guy right here here he was actually on the real world like 10 years ago it's like it's pretty pretty sweet really oh is that ct she asked where and i was like oh it was real world uh

and i think that's where she knew i was lying but i was really trying to make make her think that like we were just rolling deep with like a big celeb maybe she could tell that like you you didn't get any nods for the challenge after do you think you could go against ct in the gauntlet i saw there's a new a cbs challenge not a spinoff necessarily but they're getting a lot of the cast for some international thing well the next challenge doesn't doesn't tape until may which is not great for me someone who won the last one? CT. Fuck yeah.

Dude, he's a beast right now. He's won back to back. Hadn't he put on some weight? No, dude, he's in great shape. Is he back in good shape? He's in unbelievable shape. All he cares about now is just winning these things. He knows he's going down as a goat.

He's the Tom Brady of challenges. I mean, he absolutely is. Don't watch any challenge. If you're out there and you're trying to get into the challenge again, like I did, don't watch anything that's not actually on MTV. If it's on Peacock, if it's on Paramount, whatever it might be on, those ones suck. Just watch the ones on MTV.

That's where they're dedicating all the good people to, and that's where they're dedicating all the money to. The budget for these things have gone through the roof. And this has nothing to do with my weekend, but can I tell the folks at home something that is on my schedule in the month of March that they're going to wonder where I'm going to be? Yes.

I'm doing my civic duty. I've been summonsed. Oh, I forgot about this. Summonsed. How do you feel about that? I got hit with a summons for jury duty. I've done it before. I got sent home like an hour in and i imagine that's what's gonna happen but um yeah i've only catch me uh out march 15th the ides of march beware dave i don't have a good feeling of you going on the ides of march to your jury duty i'm worried that

you're going to be in some lengthy trial that takes you out of work for like months on end. If they, if they interview you in front of everybody, like they do, you know how they bring you up and they start talking to you about like your, your history and stuff like that. Will you just answer every question with Epstein didn't kill himself? What if that's the question during, uh, they're questioning jurors, a little voir dire? Who here believes Jeffrey Epstein killed himself?

And I'm like looking around, like people raise their hands like clones, clones. You don't listen to podcasts? Yeah. Like what? How many of you listen to podcasts? And I raise my hand like I'm kind of the podcast guy. I'm the podcast guy. I'm just amazed. Like, I'm just amazed that like, they don't let you out of jury duty knowing that they,

that you have podcasts to record. Well, it asks for dates, like conflicts. And I did put podcast weekend and it did not suffice. Did you just drag that from January 1st to December 31st? I did. That makes sense. I broke the system. I crashed the servers. What are you doing? Tell me you're doing something cooler than me. No, I have nothing. I am going to Parks' birthday. I would like to step out at some point, but that's going to take me finagling the wife situation as we don't have any babysitters in line right now. So it's going to be like one of those put the child to bed things and then try to sneak out for a couple of drinks at like 730. Is it going to go well for me no i don't anticipate this this paying off at all what time does uh parks not parks uh fritz go to

bed 7 p.m sharp yeah sometimes if he's feeling a little tired rubbing those eyes touching that ear talking 6 45 how's he sleeping pretty well no i'm not to complain when he wakes up in the morning is he a immediate cry or does he ever like chatter in there like you get him here making noises but he's not you know he's like are you up or no and you like look at the monitor not even close to crying yeah he's a party boy in the morning he loves it he gets really tired in the morning man he's just like a little he's like a little me in the morning just like rubbing his eyes just like trying to work shit out it It's funny. I guess Rhodes predominantly sleeps on his belly now.

I walk in there, and he's like... I don't know why. It's just so funny. He's on his stomach, just kind of looking over. What's up? No, Fritz now can sit up in his crib. Now when he wakes up, he just sits down and just starts playing. He just sits up like The Undertaker.

Yeah. He's got really good ab strength. I got him on this ab routine paying off he's got six you've been doing fit bod yeah fit bod dot me's i'm gonna go steam 25 off how do you remember that i'm i'm kind of ad reads are just second nature to me they really are should we get out of here no one had us going 70-plus minutes without Dylan here. Well, dude, I've been – look, as the first guest on the inaugural Will Show. Stop. This has been a lot of fun, man.
