We are coming.
All right, we're back.
Circling back podcast Monday.
My name is Will DeFries.
My left David Ruff. Imagine this cold front
pretty hard. I gotta tell you the truth. It is um it's it's gonna be well worth
the wait. It's gonna change. It's gonna change a lot. It's really gonna change
vibes. It's gonna change lives. It's gonna change the course of the week I think.
Uh-huh. We've got a big weekend ahead of us and
Yeah, it's much needed. It arrives right in time
Can't get here soon enough some are saying I'm not as excited as I am for previous years
Unfortunately, and I don't have any idea why I told Randy before the episode that like I'm for some reason
I'm not looking forward to waking up in the morning and having to choose numerous things other than shorts in a t-shirt right now
I'm not ready to put that shit on yet.
Come on, man.
Putting that shit on is one of the one of the huge perks of weather like this.
I know. I'm telling you, it doesn't make sense to me either, Dylan.
Like, I am I am a cold weather person through and through.
And I but for some reason, I'm not like.
I think I'd be more excited if it wasn't highs in the 70s still.
And we had highs in the 60s.
I have my Wednesday outfit already picked out
like the first day of school.
That's how excited I am.
Oh, God.
I'm going tech vest.
What old ass shack are you going to run into this studio?
Hold on.
Shackets are out.
They're on my outlist.
Did you not see my outlist?
Guys like me, we don't have an in-outlist.
Will you please make it an outlist?
Oh, okay. I'll do it today.
Thank you. Don't put a shack in it, gonna please I think someone already Dylan Dylan. Shut up
I did put I did throw a heat-seeking missile your way on my in out list for retail therapy. I
Okay, I read it, but I forgot what it was. Horaches. Yeah, that's right
Fuck you. Barrett even wrote for you. He goes. This is a direct shot at Dylan. I was like no, it's not
I just think that there's other shoes out there right now
that might play a little bit better.
Rest in peace.
It's killed in cold blood.
It's all right, man.
Shackets will never go out though.
As long as I'm around.
Mr. Take Off Your Pants and Shacket, Dylan Shivery.
Very happy to be here after an excellent weekend,
another excellent one coming up
like we've already talked about.
I wanna announce that I've finally accepted something Um, after an excellent weekend, another excellent one coming up, like we've already talked about, I want to announce it.
I've finally accepted something that's been staring me in the
face for weeks now and I have, I've resisted.
The fact that you stink, baby.
I've resisted and I've been slow to accept.
Thank you for saying a more G rated version of what I wanted to say.
Was it this?
Nevermind.
You're doing the Trump thing.
Was it this? Never mind. You doing the Trump thing? Anyway, the reality that I have finally accepted is that say it is that Texas is the best team in the country. Oh, wow. Okay. This
is the best team in the country. And I finally am able to admit it. Every other team is flawed
in some way. Texas is not a perfect team. But they are the closest thing to it in the country right now. And
it's a fun ride. I'm enjoying every second of it. And another big weekend coming up with
those Bulldogs coming in town.
What do you say to people who say that Texas hasn't played anybody?
I would say that they played the defending national champions at their place.
How does that age? They played an excellent defense in Oklahoma from Oklahoma. What about their
offense? Oklahoma's offense? Yeah. Where do they rank though?
Almost last if not. Okay. They're terrible. Okay. You realize how this
ends, right? Yeah, they're gonna beat Georgia and then stop. When did the
hogs come in?
You've been high on Texas.
I'm just trying to bring you down a little bit for the sake of the show.
Because there's people at home like, I really wish this guy would find another bag.
And I'm speaking for them.
When do the hogs roll in?
The Texas defense has been the real surprise of the year.
Can you answer my question? You're dodging the hog.
What did you say? I'm not dodging the hog.
I've got you coined in on this character. I understand all that. I'm just saying you're kind're dodging the hog? What'd you say? I'm not dodging the hog I've got you Quentin on this capsule. I understand all that. I'm just saying you're kind of you're kind of dodging the hog
They kind of feel like dodging any hog. I'm accepting the hogs classic hog dodging
I'm updating the rundown run it back. Dylan is not dodging hog. Okay. I'm just saying they've got a wild ride
This defense has been
Okay. I'm just saying they've got a wild ride. This defense has been
Collin Simmons. You can thank me for that by the way. Thank you for Collin Simmons, David. You can thank me. I laid the groundwork for that. I appreciate it. Because LSU is,
it was LSU or Texas and look, I may have made some calls. Thank you. We're going to talk more
later about some college burner accounts which are somehow like the thing that outside of political tweets
It's the only thing getting served to me on my timeline lately. I had some oh you college
Faceless burner accounts coming at me this weekend
Was this about the vortex ball or something? No, it's stemmed from the vortex bottle and then someone called me a poser
Get it because I had a Bama a tweet about Bama being underrated
So like not so that bit went directly
over this dumb ass's head.
And then I booked Mark's the tweet.
And then after the Texas game, I said something like,
I don't remember what I said.
I called him a bitch.
And he said, don't you have a family?
Like, don't you have two kids and a wife, whatever.
And I wanted to, I didn't want to engage more
than I needed to, but I wanted to be like, yeah, okay dad can call me. I'm a husband
I'm a father but above all I'm extremely online and like that's not gonna stop and so like I can't really I can't really speak to
Your your PC and online is what we do. I'm the man
I also didn't realize he was 22 when he called me a poser and I was like you can't be a 22 year old burner
Account calling a dude a poser burner accounter account, it's so lame.
What was his avvy?
I don't remember.
I mean, all the avvies are just old dudes,
like smoking a cigarette or drinking a beer.
Lame shit.
Sick, sick.
It wasn't, what's the show?
Archer?
Yeah, no, the new Archer account,
like the new Archer gent accounts
are just the faceless college kid burner accounts
where they use it as a way to use slurs
without having any accountability for it.
Sure.
I'm already calling it.
There's gonna be a day of reckoning at some point,
not like Papa John, but you know, a different one
where someone's gonna figure out like how to
expose all these people.
And these kids are just gonna be like, oh, fuck, I shouldn't have used the R word as many times in my responses, response tweets as I have.
That's going to be like the first cyber attack in World War Three. It's going to be like
just unveiling burners.
Well, you know, that's what Felser did. Our old tech guy at Grand Axe, he did it when
he was at Penn State. Remember that story? Yeah. Now that you mentioned it.
We covered this. It was a big story. We covered it and then we hired him later on. Was it Twitter or was at Penn State. Remember that story? Yeah, now that you mentioned it, we covered this, it was a big
story. We covered it. And then we hired him later on. Was it
was it Twitter? Was it like, it was one of those, like, those
sound off websites where you can just post like, rumors, real
healthy place rumors, just talk shit about people anonymously
about people on your campus. So he got in there, he took the
site down, he like hacked it took the site campus. So he got in there, he took the site down. He hacked it, took the site down.
Then he added some code to it
where he gathered everyone's information
and relaunched the site on his own.
And he let people post shit for a while
and then he exposed everyone.
He put their actual names and what they said
and he got in a lot of trouble for it.
A lot of trouble. I'm gonna say that that might have been worth it. Yeah.
That's like micro Silk Road. Yeah.
What sucks is that like with these with these burner accounts
now we would have been like sitting at Grand Ex being like,
All right, which one of these guys should we get to be like
our intern this summer? Like just I don't know this guy's
been doing numbers lately.
We got some big announcements right now. Okay.
Okay. Okay. 12 days from now, we will be at the Gem Saloon in New York City for a listener meetup at 5pm, Saturday,
October 26th, 5pm at the gym saloon in New York City
You guys ready costumes encouraged but not mandatory. Yeah, not mandatory, but I encouraged
Should you and I go as the morph suit guys that do sex positions? Maybe so we already have we already have one in the office. I guess it's the wrong color though, isn't it?
Yeah, we can do that for sure. I don't know if I can do a morph suit in New York City
No, I want to have that shit on. Yeah for sure. I don't know if I can do a morph suit in New York City. I wanna have that shit on. Yeah, for sure.
Also, spooky season tomorrow.
I think it's a really easy way for podcasters
to get a couple new listeners by saying,
like, dude, that was the best episode we've ever done.
I'm not kidding when I say that.
I don't know if I've laughed as hard as I did
when Dave was Nicky the Knife
on the last episode of spooky season and I'm just forecasting just
Some really good spooky seasons moving forward if he was making money hand over fist hand over fist a good time
I don't know why but when Dave said he was making money hand over fist or you said something about making eight dollars
Which has a lot of money back then. There was a lot of money back there's 70 76
We should uh, that was we had, um, Brent Rooker on.
Yeah.
You kind of buried the lead of Brent Rooker by being in your absolute bag.
Should we just release that one to the public?
I think we should cut some, uh, parts of it and maybe just put it up on the YouTube's.
Yeah.
Make tubes.
Some shorts.
Is that a thing still people are still doing on YouTube, the YouTube shorts?
I'll be straight up honest with you
Like I'm glad that Randy's putting up shorts on YouTube for the boys
But at the same time I I use YouTube regularly every day pretty much for my viewing purposes
I've watched about five total shorts in my entire life
I couldn't agree more because you're old if I find myself scrolling shorts on YouTube
I know that I have something else in my life that can be more productive than doing that.
You're like, what is this? J.Crew?
Scrolling shorts. Gotcha.
You get it.
You understand? That's good. That's good.
You got it.
Come on.
It's like obby.
Seriously.
I feel the same way about reels on Instagram.
The studio audience hadn't gotten the joke yet, but they might come to them in a second. There it is. Patreon.com
slash circling back podcast. New patrons get a week free.
You can also sign up for an annual subscription.
Like what is this? Harper with Pier Point?
I don't get that one yet, but I might want that.
Well, here's the thing, Dylan. You should probably get up on that show
because it's kind of in the zeitgeist right now.
Oh, it is geisty.
That makes me not want to watch.
Dude, it's a little bit geisty outside.
It's almost like it's on the Today Show.
It's such Willie Geist material.
It's not geisty outside.
Hold on to your hats, dude.
You step outside, you might catch a geist.
I hate what y'all are doing.
Yeah. Kind of in y'all are doing. Yeah.
Kind of in my Zeisty bag.
I'm done.
For now.
For the moment.
For the moment.
Go subscribe on YouTube, youtube.com slash circling back.
Dude, can I complain real quick?
You can.
You know, people will be like,
Hey, what's up?
Where's the new circling back?
It's not up on Spotify yet.
I was that guy on Wednesday before my connecting flag is I really wanted to listen and I was just like
Spotify fucking sucks right now. I said, where's the episode? So I'll be I'm just gonna put my hand up for a long time
I was like, let's just only promote Spotify because like we can watch video there
Spotify is acquiring podcasts at a rapid clip. Like let's up our Spotify numbers.
They are doing everything in their power to make it
so people hate using Spotify.
They stink, baby.
They do stink, baby.
I mean, they had a moment for a minute there.
They were kind of in the ZG for a little bit,
but now it's like-
They were Geisty.
Right?
We're not doing Geisty.
Geisty's better than it's in the zeitgeist.
It's just such a nerdy phrase.
What, what?
Huh?
I don't understand what we're trying to say.
Y'all heard me.
Yeah.
Heard you loud and clear.
It's very in the zeitgeist.
It's geisty.
We'll stick to that.
I mean, I'm not gonna say it personally,
but if y'all would use that term around me,
I would appreciate it.
I don't know, it's not popular enough.
It's not Geisty enough?
Geisty isn't in the zeitgeist yet.
Yeah, when Geisty gets in the zeitgeist,
we might start using it a little bit more.
The term zeitgeist is in the zeitgeist right now.
He gets it.
Yeah, it's Geisty.
Very accurate, Dylan, thank you for that.
Bro, let's go out this weekend.
There's a crazy event happening. I'd like to turn off. Bro, bro, bro, there's Geisty very accurate Dylan. Thank you for that bro. Let's go out this weekend. There's a crazy event happening
I like to turn off
Recapping this weekend and fun presented by our friends over at our game
You know, we're all about gains
Yeah, okay, clearly Look at Dylan right now.
You couldn't catch Dylan in a medium sized shirt.
Absolutely not.
It just simply wouldn't be happening.
Dude, Orgains got brand new 30 gram complete protein shakes that offer protein
packed real nutrition designed to satisfy your cravings without all the sugar.

eat 10 Starbursts because Randy
bought a bag and put them next to my desk. Limit your sugar intake. It's a silent killer.
I'm drinking Orgains just to make sure that my sugar intake goes back down a little bit.

helps manage hunger and promotes healthy weight management in combination with diet and exercise.

What you get into thank you for asking I've done. I did something I've never done before and that's go to ACL all three days
Which is crazy for me. No offense. You're too old for that shit, dude
If I'm too old for that shit, you're too old for that shit view blown your nose yet. Oh
Yeah, that's always that's always a fun Apparently people are having some like respiratory issues because of all the dust If I'm too old for that shit, you're too old for that shit. Have you blown your nose yet? Oh, yeah.
That's always a fun one.
Apparently, people are having some respiratory issues because of all the dust.
Oh, after going last Sunday, I was hacking stuff up all week last week.
I get it.
I didn't want to go back last night because I was just like,
I don't want to go down this road again.
Very dry and dusty out there.
I had to do one of these after I forgot my bandana.
Yeah, I get it
The weather was hot midday how you walked around but it actually cool walking out of it
So it was the weather was pleasant at night. Anyway, um, you want me to rank the the shows that I saw from like best?
They were all good. I don't think he needs to. I'm interested, cause he, you know what?
I am, cause I'm ready to jump in and pounce.
Okay. I'm in my ready stance.
I think I know your number one.
No, start from the bottom, then get here.
I started from the bottom, now I'm here.
Yeah, that's what I was doing first.
I'm gonna say- That song is so out of the ZG.
I'm gonna say this one.
Dude, that song is not of the guys.
No, this is not, this is not my genre at all.
Blink is my last, but I enjoyed Blink.
I wanna be clear.
I enjoyed all of them.
Blink, they have a ton of energy still.
Watching Travis Barker do his thing
was actually pretty fucking cool.
Well, when Dave and I went and saw him at Moody Center,
they did this whole thing where they like during his drum
solo part, they just raised his platform like above the stage and he was just floating around,
I don't know. It was very- At least 60 feet above the stage.
Very Iron Maiden. He was the most impressive one on-
Or Motley Crue. By the way, I didn't realize that it's
just the three of them? Yeah.
They don't have anybody else? Yeah, no.
That's pretty sick. Well, you know.
That's what punk bands be doing.
Blink 182.
One, eight, two.
Oh, I made that up.
Okay.
I thought you really had something there.
No, no, no.
I was just having a humorous joke.
I left impressed with Blink and like, I get it.
Okay.
I get it.
Okay.
The banter's fun too.
I'm not gonna add their shit to my playlist, but I get on there's a couple I can forward you some songs
Am I like Travis Barker is worth the price of admission on? Yeah, he's incredible
I don't really look up things that are like, oh the best drummers of all time or anything like that
But Travis Barker is such an entertaining drummer. Yeah, so fast. So much just like this guy rules. Yeah
Okay
moving along This guy rules. Yeah. Okay. Moving along. I'm gonna put Dua next if we're working up.
Just because I don't really. I don't love her music. I love her though. She is something else.
I do like some of her songs. I don't hate her songs.
But dude doesn't like levitating?
Like what?
It's fine.
Levitates a top 10 pop song of the last eight years.
Her crowd was absolutely massive.
She is spectacular in many ways.
Shout out to whoever's running her PR and like,
you know what?
You're gonna go all in on Austin
and you're gonna go to all the spots
and people are gonna love you there,
even if they don't even care about your music like you're always gonna have
a place there. She went to she went to the she went to some local spots that I
was pretty impressed that whoever is in charge of that found. Moving up I'm gonna
put up so I only caught two songs of Sturgell because we kind of caught it
on the way out after we saw Red Clay St Stray's and he sounded great great I'm sure he did man he sounded great oh after that I'm
gonna I'm gonna say Leon Bridges I love Leon Bridges he's I love his voice very
talented young man from Fort Worth Texas he's kind of out of the geist right now
but he's always gonna go he did the Friday, then he caught the Texas OU,
which I thought was cool.
He was at the game.
Oh, that's nice.
Did you let him sing that Natty anthem or what?
I don't believe so.
What about O'Canada?
The Natty anthem.
They didn't sing O'Canada before that game.
So he's number three.
Number two, Red Clay Strayz, who I absolutely love.
Their music is great.
They put on a fan, I caught them last night.
They put on a fantastic show. They sounded great. I think I'm going to start listening to them
more based on your enjoyment of them and based on the people that I know whose music tastes
are similar to mine are also Red Clay Stray's fans. They have ascended to probably my favorite
band going right now, which is a hell of a statement, I understand. And then number one,
Stapleton sounded so fucking good. He was awesome, dad. I was blown away by how good he sounded.
His stuff with the steel drivers is actually a little bit better, but yeah, he's really good, man.
He was awesome. He closed with Tennessee Whiskey, but before he actually got into the song,
he introduced his band in the tune of Tennessee Whiskey which I thought was pretty creative it was just
awesome I didn't know his wife was his backup singer I don't know that is yeah
pretty cool family man it's a family affair so Stapleton was my number one
yeah okay when he introduced them did they do like a little like we're all
better my mom a little solo like that was the bass guitar for example. Well, they started playing like
softly the like the the the music behind from Muscle Shoals
Alabama, Mr. Yeah, they did that. But he did it. He sang it
like he was singing Tennessee Whiskey. This guy is good.
Yeah, playing the guitar. That's kind of like that. But he
sounded a little bit better than you. no offense. He's got, it's hard to argue.
I don't know if anybody in country music
has better pipes than him.
I am not gonna argue.
He's a world-class voice.
He has a world-class voice.
It puts on a hell of a show too.
Big crowd.
Really not quite do a big, but big.
It's kind of nice being at ACL,
seeing country acts who don't command the same crowds
as the pop acts because you can just kind of slide right in.
Red Clay Stray's played right after Chapel Roan
and during Dom Dalla, which I don't really,
I'm not familiar.
I want to thank Dom Dalla for taking everyone away
from every other stage.
Thank you, Dom, for shoveling everyone towards your stage
so that everything else is very freed up.
Chelsea and I got real close for Red Clay
because it just wasn't a massive crowd
and man, it was so good.
We did the same for Sturgill last weekend
and Dom Dalla truly took so many people away
from the crowd that it was just like,
oh, if every music festival was like this,
I'd never miss a day.
It was really, really great. Chris and Dua have a duet together. They do. I think I'm in love with
you. I'm not saying that to you that's the name of the song. Okay. And it's really good. That would
have been cool if they could have I was hopped on a SpaceX and just like met up over the festival.
I was low key hoping for it but they didn't play on the same night. If they played on the same night
they may have you know worked something out, but yeah.
Wait, so who was playing against Stapleton?
Blink.
Blink.
Oh, it was Blink.
Okay.
So we got, yeah, we caught a few songs of Blink
and sprint over to Stapleton is what we did.
I think we played it perfectly,
is the most fun I've ever had at a music festival.
Damn.
Other than that, I watched my number one Texas Longhorns
just absolutely embarrassed the
Sooners from Oklahoma.
And that was very enjoyable for me.
It was going to happen sooner or later.
This guy.
A plus weekend for your boy.
A plus all around.
I yield my time to Dave.
I'm still laughing at this guy.
I know.
I know.
I went off.
Hold on.
Do you want help out of the bag?
I can help you.
I can just do it.
I'm drowning this bag right now.
Oh, you may have.
You may have noticed I was not here Wednesday last Wednesday. That's because I
Hopped on a plane to Raleigh by way of Nashville
And yeah, I spent
Wednesday nights I rented a car
Shut out the sixth Don't shout out six. They got me in that Chevy Traverse. Oh shut out six
They got me in that Chevy Traverse upgrade
You're paying so little for six that it makes you feel like if anything bad happens,
you're just going to get absolutely killed.
I'm waiting to see.
They have 24 hours to send me the deal and I am anticipating.
I got in that car and I drove straight down to Southern Pines, just south of Pinehurst
Way and stayed the night down there at the,
actually stayed at the Pine Needles place in the bogeys lodge golf.
It's very fitting for you.
Yeah, if only they'd had like a double bogeys lodge.
That would have been better and right at home, right?
Yeah.
Woke up very early, went and had a breakfast,
and then I had a,
they shuttled me over to Mid Pines,
which is the course across the street that's in their network.
They named that after Dylan?
Whoa!
Probably not.
Because you're like the mid version of Chris Pines.
Which isn't that bad.
He's handsome. I'd take that.
I would love for people to take that one.
He's good in that one that one of y'all just watched.
That movie.
Anyway, keep going.
I've watched a full movie in years.
We all just watched that Chris Pine movie.
You did.
Oh, Hell or High?
Yes.
Hell or High Noon?
Water.
Hell or High Water?
Yes.
Hell or High Noon, that's combining a different one.
That'd be tight.
That would be tight. I don't think Cowboys drink hard seltzers very often
No, oh
God, I did. Thanks for reminding me whiskey for my men high noon's for my horse
They'll kick you out of the dick saloon for doing something like oh, yeah
You order a high noon in the dick saloon that they keep it back behind the bar just to test people. Mm-hmm
They've got the high dudes there. Yeah, do
people. They've got the high dudes there. Yeah. D.O. Shout out Mr. Ernst. Anyway, played mid-pines and this was highly, highly recommended. When
I put out some feelers to people who are into the golf zeitgeist, they were like, look.
Yeah, it looks beautiful, David. Pinehurst, obviously, yeah, great great courses there but some lesser known or lesser
talked about ones these are really great. Mid-Pines a personal favorite for some. I was like all right
we'll see about it. Went down played it got paired up with a guy shout out to Tony Jett
who my playing partner that morning who's in town from Napa. So we just went out there and had a day.
It looks fucking perfect out there, David.
I came in this morning, I said top three course I've played.
I'm going to give it a week and I think it may ascend to the top.
Do you get pre-round anxiety when it comes to a round like that where you're like, okay,
I got one opportunity to play this course over the next 10 years.
I'm on vacation so a bad round can really set my mindset back. I always feel so much pressure to
play at least okay on these rounds. Yeah, no. Something I've been working on is setting an
intention. I like to set my intention for the day and for the round of golf. So on the range,
where I was hitting it pretty well, I was like, I'm
setting, I set the, my mindset was just go out there and enjoy
the course. Please just hit some good shots and if you lose a
ball, like it's not that big of a deal yet, you're gonna have a
bad hole or two. Well, Tony Jets not gonna, you know, tell you
to uh Tony's. He had his worst round in three years. He oh Tony
dude. Uh sorry Tony. Um I lost one ball that day. There's not
there's like one hole with water. So, that's not like a
super crazy feat but um I loved it man. It is just getting
out of uh Central Texas and going into the perfect weather. Pantsants pull over peel the pull over on hole three or four. That's what's up. That's what you want. I'm like
The golf trip that I'm going on next month part of the reason I'm so excited for it
Isn't just because I'm going on a golf trip. It's because I know that I'm gonna be able to wear
Exactly what I want to wear on a golf course, which is just like a pullover
Collared shirt comfy, roll out there.
There's no better feeling.
Yeah, I have more confidence playing in pants.
I don't know what that means or where that comes from,
but that's just how I am.
Well, it's kind of a tacit signal
that you're not going to get beaten down by the heat
around hole number 15,
and then just be taking lazy swings all the way in.
Yeah.
That's true and I don't have to stare down
at my little calves.
Did Will just say tacit?
Did you hear what he did?
He said tacit.
I like your calves, Dave.
You do?
Yeah, I didn't see that until we started recording.
That's a sexy ass cap.
So it's from Pinehurst.
I did not get to play any of those courses.
I had a chance to play Saturday, but I played two rounds while I was up there.
One at Mid Pines, one at Legacy, which is like a Nicholas course where like the wedding
party played.
And I do have one complaint about that course.
And that is when we did stumble upon the beverage cart on hole seven or eight
she just dropped this on I'm cash only we don't have a card reader yet they don't have a card
reader yet who carries cash all the time can I just tell you it is is 2024 we got we got to start
accepting cards at least have a little uh qr venmo situation going. Yeah, so I had one beer on that one, which was probably the move because I had something that night. I was in town for a wedding. My cousin got married. So shout out to my cousin and her now husband. It was a great time. Love Southern Pines, love Pinehurst. Totally dig it. Walked around that little town square in southern pines,
found a nice pizza place right next to our place.
Betsy's crepes in southern pines.
I had a huevos rancheros crepe.
What? No one's doing huevos rancheros crepes?
What? Fire?
I have a problem when I'm on vacation with like eating enough.
I find myself like with less of an appetite and I don't know if that's just because I have a problem when I'm on vacation with like eating enough. I find myself like with less of an appetite.
And I don't know if that's just because I'm the opposite.
I think it's because I drink too much.
But I was like, I went in with I kind of like set this intention
before I left my hotel that I was going to.
Dave is so fucking different.
It was just like I was actually meditating on it.
I was like, I'm going to eat three like loaded meals today.
Boy, when you boy went way, Los Rancheros crepe.
I wasn't done.
When blueberry waffles, she stuffed, it was stuffed with blueberries. And I went so hard black coffee. I was sitting at
the bar at Betsy's. It was it was a scene. So good. Barely made
it back to the hotel.
Like waving it family wanted to stop. It was like waving at family.
We wanted to stop.
It must look like Augustus Gloop just puffed up like a blueberry
just rolling you back.
It was bad.
It was bad.
We almost had a real problem in Southern Pines.
Oh, man.
Dinner that night.
It was great. It was all in all a very, very fun trip. I'm going to go to dinner that
How do you for real? I didn't answer that question a couple of times. How do you mean?
Somehow I want to put my hand up. It wasn't Augustus Gloop. It was a Violet Beauregard. Don't try to cuck me right now. Randy, get out of here. I decided not to correct you.
I was going to let other people. Hey, that was a quick, that was a quick rebound from your boy.
Shout out to Veruca Salt. How did she go? I bet her.
Uh, was it like the nuts?
I think like the only fans girl. Yeah.
We had fun. And then a shot to the Raleigh Airport yesterday.
What did a player do in Nashville over his little layover?
I went to a very, very, I had a very average chicken salad,
Cobb salad with chicken. I should say. I don't trust airport salads.
It wasn't great. You're asking for food poisoning.
And I got to see what exactly the Nashville, everybody in Nashville looks like
they're in the right place.
It's a lot of dudes who look like they're gonna end up
on Brett's Spotify.
I get what you're saying.
It's like, oh yeah, you're gonna,
I'm gonna be hearing from you.
You're gonna be, you're gonna somehow have
two million streams on Spotify,
even though like your shit's trash, no offense.
And I will tell you the Austin
and Nashville flight that's also a scene. That is a big scene. The Raleigh airport I found I
posted up yesterday with my two hour I got to the I dropped my sister off and she had an early
flight and I had some time to kill. So I did something I've never done before. I had chicken
tenders and a Guinness. No coffee, no caffeine yesterday.
Went pre-flight Guinness.
Why? Why no caffeine?
Didn't want to risk it.
Okay.
The Raleigh airport, well, it's fine.
Their bathroom situation wasn't,
it wasn't a Buc-ee's, that's all I'll say.
You know what's even like worse about traveling alone
in that situation?
It's that if nature does call,
you don't have anyone to watch your bags.
So you're giving up your good spot sitting at the terminal.
And then you have to go to the bathroom
and hope that you're gonna get another spot.
But as you get closer and closer to the flight,
it's like, no, this isn't gonna happen.
Yeah.
No, I encountered that a number of times.
And I don't like bringing all my stuff
into the bathroom anyway.
It's just, it's an airport bathroom.
Nah, player.
I wanna limit what I bring in there.
It's what I'm leaving is the real story.
Anyway, we had ourselves a great weekend.
Just shout out to my new friends in the cappuccino family
and my old friends in the Talarico family.
Just a lot of syllables and that's what we're doing
and we're having a great time.
Cappuccino is maybe the greatest last name of all.
Did you do any Nicky the Knife impressions
while you were there?
It seems like a good spot for it.
No, I kind of left that one.
I'm hoping they don't-
He stayed in character the whole time.
I hope Dave gets up to do a speech
and they're like, why is he talking like this?
I've listened to his podcast before.
He doesn't talk like this except for one episode.
Oh boy.
I'm hoping they don't stumble upon that. The knife.
Nicky the knife.
What a character. We'll never hear from him again. Oh yeah. He'll be back. He'll be back. I might
demand that he comes back at some point. Okay. Okay. I will. Classic
Austin weekend, man. Friday night went to
metal ranchos, metal ranchos, metal ranchos, metal ranchos,
walked up a little late to the dinner. While the guy, the
waiter was taking everyone's order, I absolutely buckled
under the pressure got tacos, al carbon, which is, you know,
usually my stock order.
Didn't really want it that night for some reason.
Wanted to mix it up.
Thought about going carne asada, but you know, didn't do it.
Have to say, tortillas, very soggy.
Oh, they need to fix that because it was not a great tacos al carbone.
Saturday, just sat around watching football all day.
Went to my friend Hot Collins place
for the second half of the UT game.
And then ended up buying some tickets
for the US men's national team game.
First team under our new coach, Mauricio Pochettino.
Not Italian Dylan, Argentinian.
Shocking, but yeah, I know.
Had a very good time at that game.
Atmosphere at a US men's national team game at the Q2 stadium in Austin, Texas.
Somehow does not even get close to the atmosphere of an Austin FC game.
It was very, very subdued the entire time, but it was cool. I'd never seen a Polisic play. I'd
never seen a lot of the big USA guys play. So I was like, all right, let's do this. Ended up having
a good time. They won 2-0, hung out at. So I was like, alright, let's do this. Ended up having a good time.
They won 2-0, hung out at the stadium for a little while
after, let traffic clear out. People were kind of rattled by
what I was ordering for my drink there. Oh boy. I had
exactly two Heineken's on draft. What? Dude, I don't know. I
don't know. So hot. It was a Heine. They were so good. They
were absolutely hitting. It was a good time. It was a heiny. They were so good. They were absolutely hitting. Uh it was a good time. It was a good time and then uh
yeah yesterday did ACL very brief stint at ACL. Sally
wanted to go see Chapel Rowan as that is her uh current
probably favorite recording artist going right now. So we
uh piled in. Ended up angling for a decent spot uh on the
right side of the stage and had a good time. I have to say she puts on a great
show. I would I would love to see her in concert again in a
more controlled situation where I have a seat.
Let's play a little game called What Will the Wait be at
Metal Rancho's this Friday if you arrive at 630. We got the
weather. We have Georgia fans coming in town for the big game. We have F1 weekend. You arrive at 6 30,
a party of five. What's the wait?
90 minutes. It's the only time in my life that I'll say this
that it's three hours is in play. Like, I've never been there when three hours is in play like I've never
been there when three hours is in play this weekend might be
the only weekend where a party might arrive and they might get
the three hour nod party five Friday night. I party five
might be easier. I'm going to say at least 800 minutes.
It just feels like a long time. Are you doing a party of five bits?
Do the math.
I don't want to do the math.
It's a lot of hours.
Yeah, I can't do that.
Yeah, it's going to be brutal.
I will be declining any Matt's invite on Friday night this week.
Like no questions asked.
Oh, I kind of want to go.
No, no.
I kind of want to get there early enough so I don't have to wait three hours.
The difference between you and I is that you don't have a three-year-old who you'd have to chase around the restaurant for the entire three hours
We don't have a three-year. Yeah, I just I just reached out to to Matt
himself
They're estimated wait time for that is five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes seasons of
We're doing we're doing minutes this weekend Dave I submitted that song for my music fantasy league the
other day and I it was widely panned. It's kind of a bop. I
I said the same thing. I don't think that they listen to it.
I whatever I'm not gonna get down that road. Uh so yeah,
did Chapel had a good time? Uh just shocked by the amount of
people that uh created a crowd
search to get to Dom Dalla from Chapel Road.
To all the women in their 50s who were just shoving people
to the side because they just felt emboldened and they could
treat younger people worse for some reason.
I was just very put off by these women just throwing people
to the side and banging into people.
Oh my God.
Very nasty women.
When we were at Dua Lipa, we had a decent spot. It
was shoulder to shoulder. I mean, packed. About three songs
in, this couple came and stood right in front of Chelsea and
me and like almost like stepped on my toes. He was like right in
my shit. and they were like
hooking up basically like over the over the shirt stuff but they were just
going at it it was so aggressive everyone everyone like spread out like
gave them room like it was they were put they were like causing a scene did they
do that spread out no they didn. It was it was discussed people that
when you're standing in an already like appropriately
dispersed crowd and somebody just goes and because I like to
keep a little distance from the person in front of me. If
someone tries to take that spot, I'm officially at the age
where I'll just go really right there right there in front of
me. He had his arms around her and he was just feeling everywhere
like sucking on her neck and they were French kissing.
It was just, it was so nasty.
And this wasn't like-
Hot?
They were attractive is what you're trying to say.
If you made a list of couples that you would like to see,
if they had a sex tape, like, oh, I want to watch,
I want to watch.
Their sex tape.
These people wouldn't be on your list.
Well, okay, are they so not on the list that it's like, okay, I kind of do want to watch. I want to watch these people wouldn't be on your
list. Well, we're okay. We're
they're so not on the list that
it's like, okay, I kind of do
want to see just because it's
so unappealing. No. Oh, wow.
That's the worst place to be.
Like, right in the middle. It's
bad, man. They were putting,
they were putting on a show and
everyone was just laughing and
giving them space because they
also were very drunk and were
like almost falling over. It was such a bad. It's kind of hot.
It wasn't. If you're listening right now, people hit us up.
Situation where two people are like hooking up in front of you
and you're more turned off than anything.
Yeah, it was just it was everyone's looking like,
oh, like, look at these people. Oh, the dust.
Sure. Yeah. Anyway.
Great weekend.
Sounds like we all fucking banged it out this weekend. Yeah, like we crushed it we did

I was pretty heavily on the TL, especially on Saturday this week.
I had nothing to do but sit on the couch, watch football.
I decided to just fire off tweets all day.
And something that was bubbling up a few weeks ago really,
really came to a head today.
We talked about those college burner accounts.
It's all the rage.
These college kids are just being wild ass on Twitter and
saying whatever they want, whether it's PC or not.
And now something else has happened.
They've been tweeting their game day fits.
You know, kind of like you're going to like, it's like Batman
looking at his bat suit
Is that what you call it? The bat suit? Oh, yeah
Like this one it for example here the guys got you know pair of pants. He's got his duck boots and SEC needlepoint belt
That's a nice touch a plastic bag with Adderall in it. Okay, and Tennessee quarter zip a Tennessee
Tech material polo and some costas you don't need the SEC belt
We get it the Tennessee logo suffices like we know who you're supporting conference
Well, my mom actually made me an NHL belt at one point. That's I'm like it's I couldn't I don't fit in it anymore
Even though it is objectively sick
All the teams or just it said NHL most of the classic teams
I originally thought it was original six when I like, like my memories, as my memory serves me,
it's original six, but it's not.
There's a lot of teams on there that aren't.
Bonus points for having an updated SEC belt
with Texas and OU on it.
Here's the thing, dude.
This dude's frat.
He has the money that he can just throw around
for needle point belts from Smathers and Branson, dude.
He just gets it.
And these dudes now are just getting absolutely roasted
for not wearing polos that are above a
size medium. We have a big content guy tweet here that's amplifying this. I also have a couple other
tweets that signify some things here. Oh, it's tough. We've got someone said, Tim Waltz nightmare
fuel and shows a Peter Millar summer comfort shirt. And then someone said, Waltzmo certainly ain't afraid of a dude
wearing a size medium.
And then the third tweet is a guy tweeting out
his Peter Millar and he's covering up the size,
which signals that it's a smaller or medium
because their people are just getting roasted.
He's looking for the back.
He could be a man of size.
Yeah, do you think he's covering up a quadruple XL
right there?
It could be, I don't know.
Like, can you guys imagine having the audacity as a man
to wear a size medium polo shirt?
Of all things to get roasted for,
being like a normally built person is like so funny.
I think it's hilarious that these guys are tweeting out
their tech material polos as if it's some big flex.
It's even funnier that they're getting killed
for not wearing a larger above.
Those people own these now.
Randy, you can look as hard as you want on there.
You're not gonna come to any conclusions regarding this.
His thumb looks tiny.
Yeah, I mean, you know that meme of like the dude
holding the sandwich like really aggressively?
He's holding his chicken sandwich
and you can see the thumb go into the chicken sandwich.
People are like, let go of it, dude.
No one's gonna take your chicken sandwich. That's how this dude is holding his polo.
You can't, there's nothing on the tag that y'all look, y'all try to find.
Dude, I'm going to start checking my boys tags when I go out and see what they're wearing.
I'm going to just walk up to my absolute boys in the bar and just peel it back and go, oh,
dude, come on.
I might have to check my Roeback order. Let them know.
We have to dirty my Roeback order. Let them know. Like, ah.
Can we ask Roeback,
because Dave and I are famously medium boys,
can we ask Roeback if they can sew some large tags
in there for you?
Custom tags?
Yeah.
Just so you don't get aired out.
If I'm Malar right now,
I'm changing the sizing across the board
so that like, if medium dudes fit into larges, you know?
This is so funny.
That's a tough way to go,
especially when you didn't have to post.
I like that big content guy is all over this.
He's gonna keep us well updated.
Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
Just never fails is what he said.
Always a medium.
My favorite skate brand back in the day was called Medium.
It's a roller blade brand or roller blade,
like street wear brand, I guess you could say.
And it's just Medium.
Dude, I'm surprised you had never heard
of Baker Skateboards.
No, I was not familiar.
I had a Baker zip up sweatshirt
that I wore like every single day to,
I don't even know what grade it was,
10th grade or something. Just couldn't take that thing off. I was like, dude, people probably
think I smoke weed because it says Baker. Sick. I didn't smoke weed. No. Nor did I drink.
I was straight edge. You don't have to burn. I don't burn. You don't burn. Need a dealer
in Austin, Texas if I want to do that. Don't give that look, Randy.
I mean, there was some, a lot of ACL on the bar springs,
a lot of weed shop setups right there.
I had a girl-
So like Delta 9, Delta 8.
The girl that woman-splained all the chapel rhone songs
to me at weekend one,
let me know that she deals weed if I need somebody.
The smell of weed, I thought she was a cop.
I now associate with music festivals.
Yeah.
You know, like a smell will bring you to a place.
That's where it brings me now.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Cause you don't burn otherwise.
Cause everyone there is smoking dope.
You've had a joint on your desk for six months.
I can't believe it.
It's a squad joint.
Dude, the amount of nicotine vapes that I saw yesterday
at Chapel Rowan was more, it was unspeakable how many people were
just like changing out their cartridges and like from elf
bars to whatever the like the small little USB looking ones
were like these weren't weed ones. Like, they were straight
up fucking yeah, I could not believe every single person and
I'm looking at these like, there's like a group of girls
in front of us who I thought were like 15 years old and they're just sitting there chiefin on these things like it's
nothing. Not good. I mean, it's the day, the old school days, man. When I was going to concerts
a lot when I was like in high school, like people would pass joints around to strangers and stuff.
And it was just like a thing. Nobody does that anymore. Do that. Chapel Rowan weekend one. I
definitely hit the joint of the girl next to me that was telling me what was going on.
Very nice. I thought to myself, this is a very nice girl.
She's here alone.
My buddy took it first and I was like, you know what?
Let's take it back.
Sometimes we go forward, you gotta go back.
And I feel like in the old days, you don't turn that down.
I don't know, it's just not in the geist like it used to be.
It's not as geisty.
It's not as geisty.
I had something weird happen over the weekend
that I'd like to talk out with you guys
that brings up some questions regarding social norms.
Let's get into it.
Okay. Saturday morning, beautiful morning outside.
My dog has had a lot of energy lately.
I think she's got a new lease on life
after having a hip issue and she now,
she's just absolutely running everywhere.
Standing outside with her, trying to tire her out, and I'm in the corner of my yard.
Hand up, I should have brought my trash can in the day before. I left it out two nights,
not proud of that, but it happened. So I'm standing there and this couple's walking by with their boxer and I don't
think they saw me. Which corner? Sorry I'm just trying to paint a picture.
Of my yard, like the one closer to the intersection. Okay. Okay so
they're walking down the middle of the street like people do. People walk their
dogs by us all the time. Rosie lets them know what up. Of course. And I don't think
they saw me and she walks over to our garbage
can and drops the poop in it.
Empty.
Correct.
Is it empty at this point?
Empty garbage can.
Yeah.
Empty garbage can.
I personally am okay with people doing, uh, what she did on a larger scale.
I think it should be acceptable that if a trash can is out there and you're
walking around with a bag of poop
You know what? Who's it gonna harm? I'm throwing diapers in there. I'm throwing whatever in there
It's a stinky trash can no matter how you draw it up
She immediately after closing the trash can looks and sees me and I can see that she's a little rattled right now
That would rattle me as well. And so I give her a
Good morning. Oh
And but there's also a part of me that just wanted to say, simply just say,
hey, thanks for your dog's shit. But like, you know, I'm pro people being able to do this.
The couple then said good morning in a very hushed and quick way, picked up the dog and then fast
walked away from our house as if like they had totally done something completely wrong and while I didn't necessarily want them to be putting the dog shit in there in front of me
I think that has to be done while the yard is empty and no one's sitting on the front porch
like it was just a very awkward and uncomfortable situation where I was like yeah they feel guilty
because they know that they shouldn't have done it with me like what do you do in this situation
do you like should should no one ever have to confront this?
You have to own it because if, if you were, if you were doing something
that didn't back your mind, if the, the homeowner saw you do it, you would
feel the need to pick up your boxer and fast walk out of there.
Then you probably shouldn't, you probably weren't confident enough
to do it in the first place.
So they probably should, I mean, they should have owned it.
If that's what they were going to do, you got to do it with conviction.
Like, yeah, you left your trash can out.
It's poop again.
It's poop time.
I would have addressed it with you.
I would have been like, do you want me to remove that?
That's the thing.
Like, I think just I'm so coy in those situations that I think I would have been like,
I'm sorry.
Like, I didn't see you right there.
I know that's kind of a shitty move.
I've done this many, many times, but I always make sure that it's not an empty trash can that just feels more disrespectful to me
You don't want to hear the thud as your dog shit hits the bottom. You're adding a bag of food
To a filled trash can that's about to be emptied
It's totally different than because that's gonna sit in your trash can for the next week
I'm assuming it's a once-a-week thing. Oh, you know what could happen and this has happened to me
You dump one in there then all the stuff piles on it
and it'll flatten it out and a lot of times it gets stuck.
And it doesn't go out with the trash.
So you look, you open it up to put a bag in the next week.
I didn't even think about that, Dave.
And there's just steaming hot dew.
Dude, your brain is huge right now.
I didn't even think about this.
Only drop it into a soon to be emptied trash can
is my personal take on the matter.
Again, I don't blame them for doing the move
because that's a move that I've employed numerous times.
Like if anything, there's times when I'm walking
with a bag of dog poop and I'm like,
I wish anyone had their trash can out right now.
How many days past trash day was the trash can out you said?
This was Saturday morning.
So, and we do trash day on Thursday, Thursday morning.
So that's sitting here.
I'm sorry, on Friday morning.
So I should have had that out of there.
This was almost, you know, the powers that be their way
of punishing me for keeping it out that extra night.
But that's six days in your trash can.
Yeah, with nothing on top of it.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, they should have addressed it.
Just like, look, I'm sorry.
Hey, I'm big with the box.
If you want me to.
Big enough that I don't think you want to be picking it up.
I was gonna say, like, it's not like it's not like a little it's like carrying a
bowling ball down the down the street.
They're going to they're going to change routes.
They're never walking by.
I know. And that's the thing.
Like, I didn't want to scare them off.
I did almost I did want to make a joke like, hey, thanks for your dog.
Shit. Thank you.
But like, that's going to come off as aggressive.
Yeah. If I see them again, I'm going to make a point of being nice to them and giving them a much nicer hello,
whatever, I don't want them to feel uncomfortable
walking by the crib, but at the same time,
if you wanna walk to someone's house who's not out there
and not make it awkward, that'd be great.
That'd be great.
What if you get egged again?
Wait, do you think they didn't see you when they did it?
I don't think they saw me at first.
I was moving in silence like a real gee lasagna.
And so like, you know how it is.
Rosie usually barks at dogs when they walk by.
Sounds pretty aggressive.
And because she was playing fetch,
she was either out of breath or running after a ball.
So they didn't get the natural tip off of like,
oh, that crazy dog at the corner
is gonna bark at us this entire time. Yeah
If they're listening right now, I'm sorry if things got awkward
I I I don't totally approve you doing that in front of people at their own house
But at the same time, you know, you got it
You got to maybe inspect the situation a little harder next time to to absolve yourself say it's a real shitbag move
I'm not calling them shitbags. Oh, no, real shit bag move. I'm not calling them shit bags.
Oh no, I wasn't. Love that neighbor.
I wasn't calling them shit bags.
Love that neighbor.
If I'm doing this, I look around
and make sure no one can see me.
I don't know if it's just my neighborhood,
but like I feel like the neighborly relationship
has just completely gone out the door in 2024. I don't think if it's just my neighborhood, but I feel like the neighborly relationship has just completely gone out the door in 2024.
I don't think neighbors are neighbors anymore.
Everyone's keeping to themselves.
It's not the America I grew up in.
I had our neighbor from across the street the other day
help me bring something in,
and it was the only time in the year
that I've lived at my place that I've thought to myself,
oh, my neighbors are really nice.
I don't interact with them much anyway,
but I can tell that they're a very nice family
across the street.
My other neighbors just make no effort to interact ever, ever.
He did decline my invite to have a beer at Chartoberfest though.
It bummed me out a little bit.
Mm-hmm.
It's too bad.
His loss.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He probably, he probably heard everyone screaming the numbers, counting up for
the keg stands later in the night. And maybe he regretted it.

Randy can you throw up a photo of Elton John, please? Not just any photo but the one that we wanted to talk about. Oh
Man does our man look like he's got that shit on
If I shit you mean a part of his knee and yeah, our dude is wearing a necklace with his knee cap on it
Y'all not like that. Oh
Man I like to keep my knee on my knee
Did he have a surgery a procedure? I think he noted that the only thing that's not artificial in his lower half is essentially
Like one hip he says I don't have tonsils adenoids or an appendix. I don't have a prostate. I don't have
a right hip or a left knee or a right knee. In fact, the only thing left to me is my left hip.
Did he play like 18 years in the NFL? I don't know. I don't think he did. I don't remember.
They left it out if he did. Yeah, it's the part of his life. He doesn't discuss.
He didn't have that fourth gulp chapter of his life? I don't think so.
He's on the 84 Bears or whatever.
He didn't pivot to being a recording artist
after a couple stints at LSU?
This reminds me of the handsome quarterback
who played for Notre Dame,
who has a necklace made of his ribs.
Y'all remember that story?
No.
You know the handsome guy with the great hair?
He's in the NFL now.
Did Marilyn Manson do it?
Yeah, you said the handsome guy or the Manson guy?
The handsome guy.
Oh.
I forgot his name.
Yeah, he had some kind of, I don't know what happened,
but he had to get a couple of ribs removed from over here.
It's not like he just wanted to party even harder.
His mom turned it into a necklace.
It's a real story, he wears it.
Here's the thing, if someone made one of my ribs into a necklace, I'm wearing that shit all the time.
Yeah.
It's kind of sick.
What are you laughing at, Randy?
Hey, Dave, are you going to make a necklace with your balls that got removed?
Will, will the message be on site?
I didn't do any of this.
I didn't do any of that.
I didn't do that at all.
I can prove it right now. Move right there. No, no, delete that to do that. Will message me. I didn't do any of this. I didn't do any of that
joke. I didn't do that at all.
Prove it right now. Move right
there. No, no. Delete that.
Delete that. Sam Hartman. Hold
on. It's good, Randy. My balls,
they weren't removed. Come on,
dude. Send Randy a link to his rib necklace.
Could you make a prostate necklace?
I don't think so.
Yeah, you could.
Remember we looked up that young lady who was making-
I don't know what a prostate looks like.
Jewelry, you don't?
No.
Oh, it's a video.
Oh, I don't want the full video. Sorry. I thought I thought it was just an image. Oh
It was this guy. Yeah handsome guy. Yeah, he's hot. He's a that's his mom. That's hard. Isn't that sick?
Yeah, that's fucking sick, dude. He's on it's like Flintstones grind
Flintstones grind. Wow.
He's got that Fred Flintstone dread.
Fred was always yelling at Wilma.
Kind of an asshole.
Yeah, social norms were different back then though, Dave.
Women's rights were pretty set back during the stone age.
Yeah, fucking.
You could cast him as a.
There were no feminine nom noms.
Like a Navy Seal and the Hollywood flick, you know?
Like he has that look to him.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. He has no business being that hot and being that good at football sucks that he plays for Notre Dame
Not anymore. He's I think he's working like an account executive job now think he's like, yeah third quarterback for some shitty team
Let's see where he's at now
It's Notre Dame's record
famously lost to a
Team I'm not a big fan of that record. I famously lost to a team. Oh, was he on the commanders, eh?
Really?
He's a depth guy.
You kind of want that guy on the sideline with his flow hanging out, you know?
You don't want that prototypical hot dude to walk into that game.
Pulling that female demo.
This is interesting He was also selected by the Birmingham Stallions in the ninth round of the 2024 ufl draft
He was waved by the commanders in August and joined their practice squad the following day
Promoted to the active roster in September falling an injury to back up Marcus Mariota
He was released from the active roster and three days ago actually and he's signing with the practice squad
So he's swimming around a cup of coffee
Probably enjoying the life
He's gets a bunch of team-issued gear that's pretty sick that is pretty sick one of the perks. Yeah. Yeah
You love perks
I don't I don't really like the knee, the knee jewelry.
It's a little gross.
These are kind of gross.
It makes my knee hurt.
Like it makes me feel like uncomfortable thinking about it.
It's a ball and socket, no?
Or no, that's not a ball and socket joint.
That's like a shoulder.
A bunch of cartilage, right?
This is the cap.
Did Dan Campbell remove that for Elton John?
He just nibbled all the fat off of it.
Dude, my teams famously did not give up a touchdown
this weekend, famously.
That's pretty impressive.
Zero touchdowns.
Yeah, Texas giving up three all year,
two were in garbage time.
Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of tweets out there
about how generationally good their defense might be if they keep up this pace
And I just don't know if they're gonna keep up this pace throughout the entire season
They have some good offices. The loins are the, or Texas?
Texas. Texas. Oh, well they get that kid that five-star out of Duncanville. We got a big setback yesterday David
I don't know if you saw that
Loins? Yeah
Yeah, that was a real, Hutchison. That was tough for him. That was tough. Best player on the team. That dude's fucking good. Yeah. Yeah, that was a real... That was tough on him. That was tough. Best player on the team.
That dude's fucking good, yeah. Yeah. It wasn't the sendoff that I wanted to go to ACL.
I'm not a doctor, but silver lining, it's going to heal well.
I think they just got to put him in... I think they got to put him in a cryogenic chamber for
a little bit and just let him vibe. Yeah.
Oh, I want to hear more about Dylan's take on the injury. Go ahead.
I mean, it's not like a ligament.
Sally was like,
Sally was explaining it to me while we were waiting in the
bag line to get our bags checked for ACL.
And she was like, well, it looks like he did.
And I was just like, please, I don't,
I don't need you to explain to me the recovery process right
now. I'm still trying to just ignore the fact that he
shattered his leg in this game.
Yeah.
That's interesting. Dylan was in the bag line to Friday night
Cocaine bag. Mm-hmm. I was waiting in line. Yeah to do my cocaine
Anyway
Yeah, shout out to Elton John underrated as a musician. Yeah, what's your favorite Elton John song of all time?
I guess that's why they call it the blues.
Really?
Yeah.
Okay.
Love it.
He's got so many to choose from.
Dude, he has just hits that you forget about.
He has so many hits.
I think I've told this story before, but we had to do a school project where we
had to choose like one song and explain the lyrics to it.
And I chose your song by Elton John because I had just seen him in concert
and that was one of my faves.
And this girl in the class while I was presenting
just raised her hand and she goes,
"'Yeah, but isn't he gay?'
And I just was like standing there
and I was like,
"'Yeah, the song can be about another man.
Like, it's not like, this is not that big of a deal.'"
It's a hard thing to bring up in an environment like that.
It's like, thank you random girl.
God.
I was gonna say, he didn't write the lyrics to Rocketman.
He didn't write the lyrics to, he had a writing partner.
Bernie.
Bernie Mac?
I didn't know Bernie Mac was-
No, it was Bernie Sanders.
Oh.
I was writing the songs.
I made him billions and then I took his billions.
It's a good Bernie. It's a good Bernie.
And then he just fucking hit the Bernie.
Weakened that Bernie?
That was a bad time.
Is this the Bernie?
I hate the Bernie.
Bernie was one of the worst.
It is such a stupid looking-
I liked the Bernie when it was happening.
I mean, if someone's doing a Bernie now, I'm like stop.
But what was Ultimate Tailgater thing doing?
Good point, Randy.
I think he was doing the Bernie. I think he was doing the Bernie.
I think he's doing the Bernie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If he's doing the Bernie, it's going to be forever in the Geist.
I don't think... I still have that.
I don't think the Ultimate Tailgater has that kind of...
No, Michael's for the culture, dude.
I don't think he's a guy... That's a Geist play.
He's literally the ultimate tailgater.
Wait, why don't you get about that?
Bud Light Lime was the drink of choice.
Michael, if you're listening to this podcast,
we would love to host you when A&M rolls through Texas.
How about he hosts us or just Dylan?
I really want you to go to that game.
Let's go to his tailgate.
What was that old broad's name?
What?
Is this Nicky the Knife talking again? No, no, no. This is like,
this is old school, but like in our mid 20s, it's like right after college. Dylan, who is that girl
you said gave you the Bernie? We never had this conversation. I don't know. You had to go to the
clinic. Yeah, the school clinic. You said you had to get some penny. No, none of this ever happened. You had to get your silly on
I didn't I don't know. He said it tastes like penny. Well, no, that was part of the problem is I
Wouldn't have told probably wouldn't have told you about that hadn't happened, but it didn't for the record. I
Was that old broads name though? I
Don't think you could say broad you could say broad you could say broad. You can say broad. I don't think you can say broad.
I'm not saying it.
I don't think you can say it.
I don't think it's socially acceptable these days.
Unless you're Nicky the Knife.
Grandfathers are literally grandfathered into all that stuff.
I think that's where they got the phrase from, if I'm not mistaken.
Oh yeah.
I never put that together.
Dylan, do we have a space bar to close things out today? Space bar, space bar, it's time for the fucking space bar.
Okay, I don't know if we needed to.
Profanity.
That was vulgar.
Why'd you hit the button?
That was recorded, I didn't see that.
We got a space bar segment.
This one is about space,
not a bar, believe it or not. So we got another once in a lifetime opportunity here if you guys
are interested. Are you? Once in a lifetime. There's a comet called... That was not... What was that?
Was that Big Daddy Mark? No, it wasn't. Actually, it kind? Was that Big Daddy Mark?
No, it was actually kind of sounded like Big Daddy Marks thinking talking heads and you might find yourself
Sorry, it is shotgun shock
Not this is a any man. This is a once an 80,000 year site
How many years this comet once once in 80,000 years, this comet. How do we know that?
Who's tracking the last 80,000 years?
I don't like, yo, this comet hasn't been here.
It's kind of in the sight guys.
Don't laugh at that, Randy.
Sight guys?
Shut up.
All right, comet Xu Xinxin Atlas.
Did I say that correctly?
Xu Xinxin?
It offended me.
Xu Xinxin.
Yeah, it does sound like a little-
Shushenshin.
Sure.
They need to work on the names for this.
Why don't they name them like hurricanes?
This comet, great idea.
Hurricane, yeah, Comet Todd.
I think because there are so many of them that it'd be hard to just keep naming them.
Oh yeah, there's not a lot of names out there.
Yeah, like Haley.
Do you know how many comets there are?
Why don't you tell me?
Why did Elon name his kid like it's a comet?
Good question. Anyway, this comet, Shushenshin Atlas, likely traveled from outer reaches of
our solar system, made its closest transit past the sun on September 27th. It was expected to
come within approximately 44 million miles of Earth on October 12th. It was expected to come within approximately 44 million miles of Earth
on October 12th. It is visible in the night sky currently if you look west.
You're doing this off the dome aren't you? Yeah I don't I didn't know any of
this prior. Let's see it will get higher in the early evening sky through October 21st.
So after that, it'll start to fade away.
But there's a comet.
I love when that, you know what's crazy?
Like you look up and you see it,
it looks like it's just being still.
Guess how fast it's going.
Can I guess?
60 miles an hour.
I literally just told you to guess.
Can I though?
How fast do you think it's going?
60.
If I had to guess, your guess is 60?
Yeah, 60 miles per hour.
60 miles per hour.
All right.
I will go 61.
Dave's closer.
You guys, fuck, brats.
You can't go over.
Price is right rules.
It is going 67 kilometers per second.
That's what I said.
Well, it's just trucking along.
It's going quite fast, but it looks like it. Well, it's just trucking along. It's going quite fast,
but you know, it's crazy. It looks like it's being, it's obviously very far away. It's going very,
very fast. And this stuff is fun. It's fun. Go look at, go check it out tonight. Look West, Will.
I know you don't know where West is. Bring it a little. Gonna have to download a
Compass. Bring a little Compass. What is a Wupp what? There's easier ways to figure out.
You have like a one in four chance.
I'll get in my car and I'll drive around until it's facing west.
Just face from your from your place face Mopac.
That'll be like, did you guys hear me talking about the left and right sides of the stage
from ACL?
Like I've messed it up every single time I've said it.
I feel like you did say you were using them interchangeably
almost.
Yeah, I don't, I can't, I'm painting a bad picture.
Well, I mean, I was thinking stage right, stage left,
or like the right side of the stage, left side of stage.
Here's a little tip for you, Will.
How about you just watch the sunset
and then just keep looking in that direction?
Oh, that would make sense.
Xu Shenshin.
Sounds like a dog.
Yeah, it does. Like a breed. It sounds like a dog. Yeah, it
does. Like a breed. Like a little little fluffy dog. Yeah,
little tiny John. It cost $6000. Yeah. Dude, how sick is
this? It was discovered by Purple Mountain Observatory.
Purple Mountain. Shit sticky. Purple Mountain. Super sticky.
Oh, just like the Ryan. Man, I mean the the last time I was this jazzed up over a comet man it was
Hale bop you know that was a good one yeah I remember that one dude I missed
our last meeting yeah but did you get the did you get the uniform in the mail
day yeah I got the the Nike Cortez or what did they wear what the heavens gate
cult where wasn't it it was definitely cult wear? It was definitely Nikes.
Yeah, it was definitely Nikes.
Was it track suits?
Oh, we found some.
Yeah, they had track suits on.
Yeah, I think they did.
I think.
And then they hit them with, I'll be honest,
swagless Nikes they chose to die in.
Kind of a swaggy little patch though.
Heaven's Gate away team.
Yeah, cause they're going away.
Okay, is that, okay.
Each body was dressed and arranged the same way.
A uniform with a custom patch on the sleeve,
purple shroud, $5.75 in the shirt pocket,
luggage packed and Nikes.
They went out with their absolutes.
They did, they did.
They found their absolutes
and were gonna go to eternity with them.
I would like to watch a documentary
on the Heaven's Gate cult
because I think it'd be interesting to learn things
that I didn't realize were going on at that time.
Really sad situation.
I'm so close to joining a cult, it's not good.
Stop, you gotta resist.
I'm trying, dude.
I need you around here.
I'm trying.
And that concludes the space bar. Hope you enjoyed it. Check it out. What about the Starlink? Will
you get a selfie with it? I'll try. Okay. What about Starlink? I know there's no Starlink
news but I don't believe it. They landed that booster and the... Can someone explain to
me why this? I think it's really cool. I've seen the video.
Can someone explain to me why this is a big deal
and what this is gonna change for things?
Dave seems to know more about it than I do.
I'm not the space bar guy.
So I'll just wait for him to look it up.
Yeah.
Just talk about it.
No.
His arms are crossed for you guys just listening.
He's crossed his arms and he is saying no.
I think it's the first time they've landed a rocket and landed it and it was it's
like the size of a skyscraper I was told and it landed it in this thing with
afterburners and it landed like perfectly and it was like grabbed by
this thing so I think it's like the safest way to land a rocket yeah
fucking rocks fuck I do I've been way to land a rocket. Yeah.
Fucking rocket. I've been trying to land rockets at the ball all fucking night, brother. Bro, I've been striking out like fucking iron judge. I've been trying to grab it with my arms.
Fucking A. I went to ACL, my girl and I and everybody was freaked out. I was fucking hugging
on it. We're watching the show. Dua Lipa, she's fucking great.
Yeah, I can't have my arms around my girl at the rock show.
At the rock show?
I think the big thing is that it just was the first
successful one and they're gonna be able to reuse the rocket.
That's like the huge thing about it.
Oh, so it's a financial play for Ellen.
It was financial and like, also like less waste.
What?
What did you just say?
Bro's name is Alan dude.
Oh, okay
You know I moved to Canada before he went to the United States
Learned that recently
