Starting point is 00:00:00 all right we're back circling back podcast coming to you live from the lodge my name is will defreeze to my right david carter roth hey happy uh international podcast day is it is it was not aware Is it maybe podcast week? I just said it because it's true. It's true because I made it up just now. This is awareness for all podcasts across the globe, including this one. And it fits nicely, Will, into podcast week. Yes.
Starting point is 00:00:40 I didn't know if it was going to be podcast week this week, but this is big. It's weird that podcast week falls on a week during which we don't record a full schedule of episodes. It is Thanksgiving week. This is fair. But, you know, we don't make the rules here. We just celebrate podcast week when it's here. What did we not do? Circling back, we'll have all of the regularly scheduled.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Incorrect. That's not true. What's the problem? Wednesday is not happening. We're taking it off. Oh, really? Yeah. It's an internal holiday
Starting point is 00:01:10 for the Watch Media members. Of course. I'll miss this. I'll promise Patreon episodes will be released. So nothing on Wednesday? Nothing. Well, actually,
Starting point is 00:01:19 the people are going to get two episodes on Wednesday, Dave. Nothing from us, I mean. I don't have any obs to be here. Here's what we're going to do this week. I'm going to spell it out for everyone out there that's listening that's just like, What's going on? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:01:32 What's the deal with podcast? This is going to be great for me, too. We're recording today. All right? And this episode will be released right after we record it. Also, too much dip is today. Tomorrow, we're going to be in the studio, and we're going to be recording listener voicemails. Okay?
Starting point is 00:01:43 Listener voicemails are going to be released on Wednesday this week. Imagine that. I knew that. That's never been done. Say you're traveling. Say you're not traveling, and you're sitting at home, and you're just like, man, I just want to. We're not going to make you wait until Friday this week. Wednesday is Friday.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Enjoy your voicemails on Wednesday. That being said, because of The Bachelor, we will also be recording Wednesday's Bachelor episode on Wednesday. So if you're a patron, you're getting double feature Wednesday. Yeah. So just Bachelor for us Wednesday. Correct. No regular CB. Correct.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Mail-in, as I explained on the mail-in last week, we're calling it off this week. No mail-in. We're going on break. Deal with it. Deal with it. You'll be back though, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Okay. Deal with it. Scaries it. He'll be back though, right? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Deal with it. Scaries will be released on Sunday as normal. As I told Brett, you know, people probably need
Starting point is 00:02:31 an episode on that Sunday. You know, Sunday after Thanksgiving. You're just dragging your ass back to work. You're getting slaughtered, yeah. Are we doing more stuff? Hard to say.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Okay. I'm going to just put this out there. No Thursday night football live stream no you have to well it's on thanksgiving you have to i know thanksgiving i just i don't want to ask micah and kj dylan i don't really care about you right i don't want them to have to go away from their families it's sponsored by lubies this week though no it's actually furs. You don't know furs, do you? It's the Luby's. It's the Luby's, but it's all you can eat.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Oh. Slightly lower in quality, but it's all you can eat to make up for it. It's not good. Give or take. It's very bad. It's Luby's. They went out of business, right? Apparently, that's what happened, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Too bad. Yeah. Brett kind of dropped the bag on the Golden Corral sponsorship. We're not the demo they're looking for. Yeah. Okay, well, they should believe in us. Go to Fazoli's instead. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:30 Truly an all-time bad place. No, dude, don't talk. Don't talk. We don't slander Fazoli's. I do. Never had Fazoli's. We had one at San Marcos. Never went.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Didn't you say, like, the garlic bread at Fazoli's is, like, your favorite thing in the world or something? Well, the beauty of the garlic bread at Fazoli's is like your favorite thing in the world or something. Well, the beauty of the garlic bread at Fazoli's is that it's cardboard, but it seems as though they soak it in a layer, like an inch of butter before they hand them out. And so they're just absolutely dripping. Here's the thing. You can make anything taste good if you douse it in butter and just do some garlic salt on it. Yeah. Anything.
Starting point is 00:04:02 Yeah. It's the Italian glizzy. It's not what it is yes it is no uh huh no uh huh no
Starting point is 00:04:11 I'm trying to come up with something that better represents what you just said cabagoola cabacola could be that right fucking gonzo morning
Starting point is 00:04:18 over here wow what it's a Monday you're firing I called you it's a morning I heard're firing. I called you. It's a morning.
Starting point is 00:04:26 I heard it. I just don't, you know. It's kind of a stretch, I think, but one of the best gifts of all time, the Alonzo morning. Truly. Just processing a lot. That's one that doesn't get old. Do we know what the situation was for him there? I think he explained it once. I would love that.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Someone was like, what happened here? And I think he tried to recall exactly what was going through his brain. I would love if somebody just did an, what happened here? And I think he tried to recall exactly what was going through his brain. I would love if somebody just did an entire thing where they just interviewed the most famous GIF people and they just got down to brass tacks.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Yeah. Is the first question like, is it GIF or GIF? Okay. We're not doing that. You know what's really fucking good garlic bread? Is H-E-B's homemade one in the big aluminum thing.
Starting point is 00:05:07 See, I'm trash. I'm not opposed to just going and getting the one in the plastic wrapping in the free section. Texas toast. I don't do the Texas toast. My dad's a big fan of doing the Texas toast. Why is it Texas toast? I don't know. You guys don't claim it hard.
Starting point is 00:05:19 No. I mean, like, Whataburger has it on their menu. But it's not like a thing where it's like, man, my grandmommy made the best Texas toast. That's my Texas guy accent. The things that, when I moved down here, the things that I didn't realize were so, that people rode so hard for were Whataburger. Like, I knew people liked it, but I didn't know people rode for it.
Starting point is 00:05:41 And breakfast tacos. When I first moved here, I didn't even know that breakfast tacos were a popular thing here. And everyone's like, oh dude, you've got a lot to learn. I didn't know about breakfast tacos until probably high school. I'm glad I know about them now. It wasn't like a thing that my parents had a take
Starting point is 00:05:58 on breakfast tacos. I feel like that it wasn't a huge deal in the 90s. I could be way off on that. You could. You could. In fact, I probably am. I'll go as far to say I've never had one until I came here. Austin is kind of like breakfast taco central, I think. Oh, it's the hub.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Much more so than Dallas. It's the hub. I think that's probably one of the reasons why. I disagree, but I don't really know why. Because you're just a big dum-dum? I agree because I have no experience outside of Austin living anywhere that has breakfast tacos. People in Austin take—everywhere offers breakfast tacos. I mean, you can get them anywhere.
Starting point is 00:06:39 I feel like you would get some blowback from our friends just south down on 35 San Antonio Way as being the hub for breakfast tacos. Fair. But I don't have enough experience to know how. Breakfast tacos is like a traditional Mexican dish, though. You know what I mean? It's more like a hipster Mexican food. Ooh, I don't know about that, but I'm not. I don't know why again, so I'm going to allow it.
Starting point is 00:07:08 I feel like I'm on to something. You ever had the breakfast taco at Matt's El Rancho? I don't think I'm articulating it properly, but I'm on to something. The what? You ever had the breakfast taco at Matt's El Rancho? Can't say that I have. Isn't it just like completely giant? Yes, it's absolutely gargantuan. I don't even know if they still offer it, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:07:22 I remember – They've modified their menu, and I think that might have gotten the ax. In my 20s, I went there violently hungover, ordered them, and never took a bite. Just looked at them. Have you had the Don Juan at Juan and a Million? No, what's that? Juan and a Million is a little Mexican food joint on East Cesar Chavez on the east side. And it's famous for its breakfast burrito called the Don Juan. and it's famous for its breakfast burrito called the Don Juan. And it is huge, and it's one Idaho potato in each burrito. That's a lot of potato.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Just a bunch of egg and bacon, and it's all wrapped in a giant tortilla. And they have one of those contest things, like who can eat the most Don Juans. I think the record is like six and a half. Do they smell as good as Randy's homemade breakfast burritos? They're basically a giant version of Randy's homemade breakfast burritos, yeah. Have you ever had the burrito from Matt's El Rancho? No. What?
Starting point is 00:08:10 No. I don't know. I did it one time because I just wasn't feeling like getting my usual. I have to say, pleasantly surprising. That's not something I will really ever order at a sit-down restaurant is a burrito. It seems difficult to eat and be social. Oh, no. It's purely fork and knife at Mattel Rancho. It's absolutely smothered in chili con carne sauce.
Starting point is 00:08:34 Ooh, let's go. That is chili with meat. Yeah. It's cone carne. It's not cone carne. Cone carne. If we're going to talk fast food, we could just throw the In-N-Out line on the rundown.
Starting point is 00:08:48 What the hell? Is that real? Yeah. Where was that? Colorado. Fargo? Because when they were introduced to Texas, I believe the first one was in Frisco. And there was a line very similar to what I saw.
Starting point is 00:09:03 People were crying. So much so that I thought that that's what, it was like they were running back that story. They were, like the local news, they would interview people. They're like, I moved here, I moved here from Sacramento when I was 12. Oh my gosh. And it's just so good to have it in Outback. Yeah, when the first one opened in Frisco, Texas,
Starting point is 00:09:19 there was a line, like I think a couple miles long of cars just lined up waiting. For just a very, a very okay hamburger. It's a good burger. The burger's fine. It's fine. The fries are just all-time bad. All-time bad fries. And it ruins the experience of the restaurant because the fries are so bad.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And you can fix it by going animal style and just smothering them in stuff, but I don't necessarily want to do that every time I eat in them. They do have good milkshakes. I'd rather order a Gangnam Style. Bring all the boys to the yard. If you order one sometime, you know what I'm going to do to it? You're going to drink it. I'm going to drink it.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Do they do milkshakes? I drink your milkshakes. Yes, they do. That seems excessive to get a burger, fries, and a milkshake. Sometimes you just need a milkshake. That's going to make you feel very bad. I've never gone. So I live right next door to an In-N-Out.
Starting point is 00:10:09 My apartment literally wraps around an In-N-Out. I pass it every time. And I've thought about going there just for a milkshake once in a while if I'm ever craving it. But I think that's just such a slippery slope that I haven't done it. All of a sudden, I'm just a milkshake guy. I want you to do that. If it blows your little... I don't need a bunch of boys
Starting point is 00:10:25 showing up in my apartment being like what up what were you gonna say if it blows your little D off it's so good he's gonna wanna keep going back is what I'm saying mash that strawberry button
Starting point is 00:10:34 ooh man Pete Terry's has a really strong strawberry milkshake they're limited edition ones are just the bomb I want Will to go down there on like a Sunday night and he's like feeling good
Starting point is 00:10:42 he has some CBD in his system gets a milkshake goes back up lights his candle Sunday's scary's night and he's like feeling good he has some CBD in his system gets a milkshake goes back up lights his candle Sunday Scaries candle and he's like he puts on like a replay of a La Liga game
Starting point is 00:10:51 and then all of a sudden you just it's there's this little straw that he doesn't see and it just slithers under his door just goes over his shoulder
Starting point is 00:10:58 down into his milkshake and it just starts slowly disappearing and he's like what the fuck? and it's me you're drinking his milkshake. It's me about four miles south.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Is it because you're an oil man? This is my son and partner, Roger Dorn. I've abandoned the forums. I don't know about that movie, man. To anyone listening for the first time, I apologize for everything that we've done in this first 10 minutes. Can we get some programming notes before we really get into it today?
Starting point is 00:11:27 I've abandoned my website. We've abandoned video. We've pivoted. Go follow Circle and Back Pod on the Grom. And me on the group. Also, go follow Wash Media on the Grom. Please. We're 5,000 followers.
Starting point is 00:11:43 We're halfway. We're halfway there. We're on halfway to our goal. Our goal is 10 million. Living on the Grom. Take my hand. If we get to 10 million, we don't have to do this pod anymore. We can just live off of that. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:11:57 That's the goal. That's why we're trying to get there. So if anyone out there listening knows, 9.9 million followers. Just tell millions of your friends. Go follow us. million followers. Just tell your friends. Go follow us. Everybody needs to tell millions of friends. Tell 1,000 of your closest friends about us, please. It would be awesome if you guys did that.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Yeah. Also, we already did this week's schedule, but just to refresh, we're dropping both Patreon episodes on Wednesday. It's just a weird week, guys. Happy Thanksgiving to everybody. Go leave a review and five-star rating. Also, Twitch. Twitch.tv slash watch media.
Starting point is 00:12:30 I'm not sure what our Twitch schedule will be this week, but we'll be around. We've got some fancy lights on the way, speaking of Twitch. All of them? All of the lights. Yeah. All the lights are coming. Studio lights. Man, that's really exciting news.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Per Randy's request. We're talking Twitch. Twitch. Twitch. Lighting is important, Dave. Also, go buy really exciting news. Per Randy's request. We're talking Twitch. Twitch! Twitch! Lighting is important, Dave. Also, go buy a Sunday Scary Senate candle. Just go check the link in bio of anything. Or just go to vellabox.com slash Sunday Scary. From the ring light guy over here. Yeah, ring light boy over here.
Starting point is 00:12:57 You're jealous of my ring. I am jealous of your ring. It's kind of annoying. I had the opportunity to completely cuck that ring from you, and I didn't do it. Cuck ring. You can probably acquire one if you want to. I had the opportunity to completely cuck that ring from you, and I didn't do it. Cuck ring. You could probably acquire one if you wanted to. I know, but Micah gave it to me to give to Dave, and I thought that this was some kind of... That would have been just downright thievery. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:15 That would have been a middleman just completely running off on me. Sometimes you've got to steal shit from your friends, though. If you look better in something that they have, you've just got to steal it. I have some of my friends' clothes. That would be like getting a bunch of blue apron that you're supposed to distribute to a bunch of hosts for a podcast and decided to keep it all for yourself without telling anybody it'd be something like that yeah oh that's exactly what it's like let's do this weekend can we do the the biggest announcement what we're selling stuff yeah
Starting point is 00:13:41 we will be selling stuff i just we i don't know if we have details on it, so I didn't want to. Oh, yeah. Tomorrow. We're light on deets? I'm not sure if we're a hard tomorrow, Brad. I think we're... Mr. Deets over here. No, see, this is why I don't tease stuff, like hardly ever. Why can't we go tomorrow?
Starting point is 00:13:55 Because once you start teasing, that's when shit really starts hitting the fan. Dude, he's a teasing fool, man. Dude, you can't be teasing. We're selling stuff. There's going to be merchandise. A merch drop. Yeah, there's a merch drop coming. Like a huge merch drop.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Like a new store. Just keep an eye out. A new store is coming. We'll see about it. Keep an eye out. We have equity in Kohl's. Yes. So you will be purchasing
Starting point is 00:14:19 Washed Media items with Kohl's Cash. Kohl's Cash or Bitcoin only? Let's do this weekend of fun. Let's recap this shit. Presented by ButcherBox. Not everyone has convenient access to high quality meat. It's a sad truth, guys. That's really sad.
Starting point is 00:14:36 I got into that bacon yesterday. Oh, did you? Yeah. I couldn't wait on my ribeyes, by the way. I cooked both of them in about a three-day span. I just went to town. Wow, dude. Must be nice.
Starting point is 00:14:48 There it is. I didn't get a ribeye, Brett. No ribeye? You didn't? I got some good steaks. I got some good steaks. I didn't get a ribeye, though, unfortunately. I guess I'm going to have to go dip back in.
Starting point is 00:14:57 That was probably a New York strip, Dylan. Dare I say that... No, they were ribeyes. Dare I say they were very flavorful. I know the difference, David. Our listeners are spread all across the country, and sometimes no matter where you are, it can be hard to find 100% grass-fed finished beef,
Starting point is 00:15:12 free-range organic chicken, heritage-breed pork, or wild-caught salmon at the grocery store. It's expensive. It's tough. It's just you never know what you're getting. But with ButcherBox, it's a no-brainer. Luckily, today's sponsor, ButcherBox, believes that everyone deserves high-quality, humanely-sourced meat. ButcherBox really
Starting point is 00:15:28 couldn't be easier. All you have to do is sign up, select your box, and they ship it right to your door every month. And when you sign up now, you get their steak sampler with six grass-fed, grass-finished steaks, because the best steak night is a free steak night. Can you guys agree with that? Nothing better. Yeah. Nothing better. So every month, ButcherBox ships a curated selection of high-quality meat right to my home.
Starting point is 00:15:51 No antibiotics or hormones. I'm so anti-biotics. Hey, if you're a biotic, out of here. Yeah, see ya. Hey, you're out of here. Bye. Later. Bye-bye.
Starting point is 00:16:03 It's the way meat should be, Will. Yeah. Biotic-free. Biotic. Bye-bye. It's the way meat should be, Will. Yeah. Biotic-free. Each box has 9 to 11 pounds of meat, enough for 24 individual meals. It's packed fresh and it's shipped frozen and vacuum-sealed so it stays that way. You can customize your box. You can go with one of theirs. Either way, you can just get
Starting point is 00:16:19 exactly what you want. It's a no-brainer. It's the best meat shipped right to your door, which means one less trip to the grocer. There's options like 100% grass-fed and finished beef, free-range organic chicken, heritage pork, all that good stuff that I was just talking about. It's the way meat should be. It's the most affordable and convenient way to get healthy, humanely raised meat. With ButcherBox, you get the highest quality for just around $6 a meal.
Starting point is 00:16:40 That's pretty darn good. High quality meat for $6? Don't mind if I do. For a limited time, new members get six free grass-fed, grass-finished steaks when they go to ButcherBox.com slash circling back. That's two New York strips and four top sirloins added to your first box for free. Act quickly. This offer is only good through Cyber Monday, a week from today. Love Cyber Monday.
Starting point is 00:17:02 Act now. Just go to ButcherBox.com slash circling back. That's Butcher butcherbox.com circling back that's butcherbox.com circling back dylan what'd you do this weekend yeah i'll keep them on pretty short and that's uh because i really didn't do anything oh man sometimes those are the best weekends i had parts well they are the best weekends usually but uh you know during the times of covid you're not really stepping out doing much so homie and i we we just straight chilled Friday and Saturday, watched a lot of football, went to the playground, stepped out for a minute to get him a haircut
Starting point is 00:17:29 because we have some family pics we're doing today. Wow. He looks fresh to death. What are you going to wear? I think I'm going to wear that oatmeal sweater out there and some navy slacks and some loafers. Look at you. Wow. Iers. Look at you. Wow.
Starting point is 00:17:46 I think. Look at you. You'll probably see something on the ground eventually. I can't wait. Exactly. You should wear the, what was that segment we did a couple weeks ago from that college?
Starting point is 00:17:58 Concordia, University of Michigan? Condorkia? You should wear one of those. David, why would I do that? I didn't go to school there. Why don't you go full Tim Taylor and just wear a random sweatshirt? I'm probably going to stick with my original idea. That's a dope idea.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Just wearing a good-looking quality sweater, if that's right with you. What was it, like Michigan Technical College or something? Don't poo-poo Michigan Tech like that. Houghton's a great area. Great hockey team. Anyway, back to my weekend and fun. I had a chance to go there. If you want to shoot on Aquinas, there'll be a chance.
Starting point is 00:18:24 I didn't get a sky like this that I could walk on, but I'm good. Or skate on, I guess is what we called it. Don't shoot on Aquinas either. I take that back. That is pretty much all I did, folks, so y'all can take it from here. Take it from here. I didn't really do anything. Did the squad do nothing this weekend?
Starting point is 00:18:44 I played golf with Brett Friday. Yeah, we had fun. Going through a swing change, though. It's a hole. It's hard to play through a swing change. Well, yeah, you did hit 150 balls the day before. Yeah. At least.
Starting point is 00:18:55 Three buckets, he told me. Now you're going to a chiropractor because of it. Literally, yeah. You're too young for that. I'm going to tell you that right now. It's not the full back. It's one spot. It's just one spot. I feel like. Starts at one. you that right now. It's not the full back. It's one spot. It's just one spot.
Starting point is 00:19:05 I feel like... Starts at one. Next thing you know, it's two. And three. Because I think you emphasize the other spot that's away from the spot. You know what I'm saying? I'm going to work it out for you. I just need to be punched aggressively in the back, I think.
Starting point is 00:19:17 I can make that happen. I can use one of those big... It's like a giant J. And it has a little ball on the end of it, on the hook part. And use it to hook around your torso and get your back. Primrose used to have one of those. I know what you're saying. I've never used one.
Starting point is 00:19:29 They are extremely helpful. Really? Racquet ball. Put it up against the wall, between you and the wall, and just kind of rub around. Same idea, obviously, but it's just a little different way of doing it. They're cool. They work. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah. Obviously. You don't have to get a J hook. Do you want me to walk on your back? Yeah, I don't know what they're called. It's a giant J. Okay. I know what you're talking about. Those things are great. Yeah. I love them. They're cool. I don't even have back issues a J-hook. Do you want me to walk on your back? Yeah, I don't know what they're called. It's a giant J. Okay. I know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Those things are great. Yeah, yeah. I love them. They're cool. I don't even have back issues, and I just fucking do it. Giant J. Giant J. I'm glad you've started doing it so people can't just get mad at me for doing it.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Dave played really well, though. Nobody gets mad at you for that. Oh, there's some haters. Is it the candle guy? Maybe the candle guy. I hit off the tee really well. Yeah. Dave was like, usually Dave has a bit, not a hook, but Dave plays a draw.
Starting point is 00:20:11 He was going like straight off the tee, which he was murdering the ball. Murdering it. Low spin right now with that tee shot. Yeah, yeah. Just piping. I guess. Big dogs only. I guess.
Starting point is 00:20:25 I had fun. You guys ever had a pre-made Bloody Mary? Like they sell them. I ordered a Bloody, and the young lady, this is at the snack shop, not actually, she didn't have the cart out. Instead of like getting the, what is it, the Zing Zang and making one, she just like cracked open a can of a Bloody. They already had vodka and everything in it and poured it in.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Wasn't that good? What was the brand? Out them. I don't remember. Do you? I didn't see it. And I didn't want to be like, can you? I don't want to be that guy.
Starting point is 00:20:57 But let me just say this. It was a bad order because you should not order a Bloody when it's above 70 degrees. And I did. And that was a mistake. Sneaky shots to Zing Zang for just being awesome, by the way. What's up with that? It's a great company. What's up with that?
Starting point is 00:21:10 It's so good. They got it down perfect. You don't need anything else. No. Yeah, Zing Zang's great. Yeah, that would have weirded me out. I'm not sure if I'm about that life. I feel like it has to be borderline pullover weather to order a bloody.
Starting point is 00:21:25 And it was not. It was borderline shorts weather. In fact, did I wear shorts? I did wear shorts. You had shorts on per breath. Yeah, I should not have ordered a bloody. That's on me. It's okay.
Starting point is 00:21:36 People make mistakes, dude. It's just how you rebound from those mistakes. Well, I rebounded by losing money all weekend. Nice. That's good. I didn't do anything Saturday. I didn't do anything Saturday. I didn't do anything Sunday. I watched college football.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Played some Call of Duty with Dylan and KJ. Did we play Saturday? Don't believe so. It was for the boys. Are you sure? Maybe that was Klein. Not sure. We played with somebody.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Probably Klein. Yeah, I didn't play with you. You didn't dip out of the lobby right before you started? No, I should have. Dude, it wasn't even the lobby. We were pinning the game. Dropping it. Much worse. Dropping it. Jerk, man. Can't be doing that.
Starting point is 00:22:12 What did you do this weekend, Brett? I golfed with Dave, and then for the last two days, more or less, I've been working on this merch drop that we're about to do. We're selling stuff. We're selling stuff. Also made burgers last night that were probably the best burgers I've ever had. Did you get any feedback?
Starting point is 00:22:30 No. You got them from Chevron? Yeah, Chevron. A lot, like literally dozens upon dozens, if not a hundred people were like, you one-hand that thing? It was just a one-handed joke over and over and over again. So while I appreciated it. Those guys are doing real it was just the one-handed joke over and over and over again so I'm while I appreciate it those guys are doing real comedy I did one-handed and I realized the reason I won hamburgers is to like
Starting point is 00:22:51 keep my phone and the other to just scroll Twitter dude don't yeah can we edit that out I don't want people knowing that put your phone down we talked your phone has so many germs on it and you're just like just double that's why he's not double-handed one and the other your phone can wait a couple of minutes I agree but I just realized that that, that's why he's not double-handed. One and the other. Your phone can wait a couple minutes. I agree. But I just realized that's the root of one-handing burgers is for either a beer or to pick the phone up and check what's going on. Yeah, but the original crux of this entire argument was that, like, you're at a barbecue and you don't have, like, the plates situation, whatever.
Starting point is 00:23:22 Like, you're just doing this in the comfort of your own home, which is even weirder. That is true. That does make it worse. I don't know. No. Just risking it all over the carpet. What was on said burger? What do you mean, on it?
Starting point is 00:23:34 Just, like, condiments or seasoning? But on the burger. Per se. What does and mean? No, like, yeah, condiments and toppings. Fixings. Fixings. Tillamook, thick-sliced farmhouse thick-sliced cheddar, mild cheddar.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Shreddy Letty and shredded lettuce. Dude, if you're doing shredded lettuce, that's two hands all the way, dog. I disagree. Yeah, those strays, they'll get the burger juice and the mayonnaise or whatever and they'll fall on your lap. It creates just a web of burger juice. I'm so disappointed.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Ranch? No. Ranch on the burger? What the fuck? Okay. Yeah. I mean, that's... I'm sure I've had it.
Starting point is 00:24:18 Fresh or sauteed? How do you do those onions? You can't brush it off. It was good. You literally said it was the best burger you've ever had. Cold red onions.
Starting point is 00:24:23 In the range. I don't want that burger. It was good, man. It was my favorite burger you've ever had. Cold red onions. In the range. I don't want that burger. It was good, man. It was my favorite burger. I want it outside of the range. If onions aren't sauteed, get them out of my face. Out of my face. Wait.
Starting point is 00:24:35 No pickles? I didn't have any. But I probably wouldn't throw them on anyway. I'm not really a pickle guy. I'm not a pickle guy on the burger sometimes, but I do like a good spear with it. That's fair. Yeah. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:24:50 Just something about them, like the juice sometimes, they get too fresh if they're not like super pickly and they're a little too cucumber-y. It kind of ruins the savory taste. Please. I actually used ButcherBox this weekend, much like Dylan. Let's go. A little top sirloin action. Let's go. Yeah, I actually used ButcherBox this weekend. Much like Dylan. Let's go. A little top sirloin action. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Yeah, I did it to him. Not a low-key weekend. Was there any footy? Yes, the international break was over, so more on that. I'm too much dip. Did you watch any of the Cetia? I did not. All I watched was the English game.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Not the Netflix show, just talking about the EPL. What? You just reminded me of something. Okay. All I watched was the English game, not the Netflix show, just talking about the EPL. Oh, fuck. What? What? You just reminded me of something. Okay. And, yeah, outside of that, I just kind of did my own thing. It took Rosie for a nice little walk that we finished off with a little baguette prosciutto sandwich from Easy Tiger right across the street.
Starting point is 00:25:38 That's sick, but. Great. What? You got an issue with my walk? No, I don't. I don't. Can't walk my dog? It's just very Will to finish off the dog walk with a baguette.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Yeah, dude. It's the baguette sandwich. It's good. That place is good. It's good. Did you cross South Lamar right in front of you, like jaywalk across? Yeah, luckily for me, Sunday mornings, not a lot of traffic, so you can just jaywalk there.
Starting point is 00:26:00 No questions asked. Brett and I did that recently. Yeah. We like frauded it on like a Friday, though. It was not a good move. It can be dicey. It was. It can be dicey. It's pretty like, Rosie, go, did that recently. Yeah. We like frauded it on like a Friday though. It was not a good move. It can be dicey. It was. It can be dicey.
Starting point is 00:26:06 It's pretty like Rosie, go, go, go. Yeah, no. Sometimes you catch yourself just standing in the middle of the road just waiting to get hit by a car that's trying to get in the turn lane. Easy Tire doesn't have TVs. No. Pretty disappointing. They did open the upstairs though.
Starting point is 00:26:18 It didn't fit their vibe. They opened the upstairs. It fits their vibe if they had TVs that they only played soccer on. Yeah. That actually is true. They need like one or two. Because we went to watch the Texas game on a Saturday morning. They just didn't have TVs.
Starting point is 00:26:29 Your boy also started some new TV shows this weekend. I started watching The Crown. I started watching The Undoing. I watched some Crown. I started watching... Why are you starting so many at once? What are you doing? Because I've realized I don't like binging shows all at once.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Because if I really like it, I'd rather savor it. And so I'm doing one episode a day. So I need a nice little rotation. I don't like binging shows all at once. Because if I really like it, I'd rather savor it. And so I'm doing one episode a day. So I need a nice little rotation. I don't know, man. Yeah. And then I started Industry, the other show on HBO that's getting some love. I'm glad you brought that up. Because I have an unsolicited recommendation.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Okay. Netflix. And I might be very late on this. I really hope so. Operation Odessa. I have not seen this. That's the one I told you about, Dave. Isn't it so good?
Starting point is 00:27:11 You watched it? Yeah. I told you. I think Randy pulled the tape on this very podcast. No, you probably did. I just... So fucking awesome. It was a wild ride.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Highly recommend. If you're into, i don't know um ex-soviets or soviet submarines um potentially being brokered for the uh cali cartel from um a miami strip club owner who was also an enforcer for the mob in new york at one time if that interests you, then yeah, you'll like this, and I think you will. With interviews with all of these people, by the way. You'll love to see it. It's like if you were playing Dave Ruff. How many reenactments?
Starting point is 00:27:52 None. Perfect. If you're playing Dave Ruff Bingo, though, this documentary literally checks everybody. Russian mobsters in Odessa? Yeah, that checks out. There's no connection to Odessa, sadly. Why? I don't know. That's weird. You thought they were just out there fracking? Yeah, that checks out. There's no connection to Odessa, sadly. Why? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:28:06 That's weird. You thought they were just out there fracking? Yeah. Too fracked to care. Just running seismic out there. Please don't say that again. Why? Too fracked to care. That was absolutely someone's username at some point.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Yes, 100%. Probably numerous. There was probably too fracked to care too there's like yeah underscore uh dylan you did something else this weekend uh not true what my tree's been up for a minute oh you just you're just unveiling it now yeah so you gave your tree a 7.8 rating i I put my tree up, I believe, last weekend. Okay. And I waited for Parkston. I got him the day after I put it up.
Starting point is 00:28:50 We had a little celebratory ornament hanging evening. It was fantastic. We had a really good time. And, yeah, it's a 7.8. Can you explain to people that maybe are new to the program what you do year after year? Yeah, so I'm the Christmas tree guy. I'm the official scorer of Christmas trees. People on Twitter will constantly send me pictures of their trees or their family's trees or friends' trees or whatever and ask me for a rating from 0 to 10, and I will do so for you.
Starting point is 00:29:24 And you rated your tree. I have an issue with your rating. I like to be transparent. Okay. What's wrong with my rating, sir? I think that you're being intentionally modest about your rating. Oh, I don't know. Putting yourself sub eight is just kind of being like that.
Starting point is 00:29:38 You're trying to be the everyman right now. That's an honest, just a straight up honest rating of my tree. I'm not a ten guy. I think he was a little generous. Really? I knock off. Klein gave you a 5.8. He knocked off a whole three points for colored lights, which seems aggressive to me. Klein's a dumb dog. I don't mind the colored lights, but I will say this. I knock off an automatic point for visible wires. Actually, the wire that you see in the photo, it's just sitting there. It's not powering the tree lights.
Starting point is 00:30:10 It's still visible. I know. Well, it's not part of the tree. Well, you should move that. I just need to store it. I need to put it away. Otherwise, you have yourself a pretty dope little tree here. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:19 And he classed it up with a dog. He's got Stella in there making a cameo. That's pandering. That's making sure that, yeah. No, no. She just happened to be right there. No pandering. Yeah, I'm sure you weren't.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Hey, Stella, come here. Sit, sit. No, turn around. But she's so cute. Look at her. Look at that face, man. Judging by what I'm seeing on your television and the little part I can see, it looks like you're watching The Masked Singer.
Starting point is 00:30:41 I had football on. This was a commercial. Yeah, this was a commercial. I had football on this was a commercial yeah this was a commercial I had football on all night of course a lot a lot of people were accusing me of putting fake presents under the tree and let me just say why would you do that waste of time like this isn't Nordstrom what he took my fake presents under the tree like oh it's so early in the year like no one has presents out yet just to look ball and something Let me explain something.
Starting point is 00:31:05 When you have a five-year-old at home who's excited about Christmas, five-year-olds, all they care about is presents and an old Santa Claus thing, right? Mm-hmm. I ordered a couple presents, and I wrapped them. They are very real presents, and they're for parks. What are they?
Starting point is 00:31:19 Tell us what they are. He doesn't listen. You can tell us. They are Nerf guns. Whoa. Damn. One of them is, They are Nerf guns. Whoa. Damn. One of them is, the tag says it's for me. I got his cool plan.
Starting point is 00:31:31 When he opens his Nerf gun, I'm going to open mine at the same time, and I'm just going to start unleashing on his ass when I get out of the box. Did you load it up before? Yeah. Yeah. It's ready to fire. It's ready to go. It's going to be funny.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Because he wanted two so he can get in battles with them. I passed one to his friend, and so I'm going to light them up. It's going to be fun. But they're Nerf guns. I'm jealous. It's got the big drum. It looks kind of like a minigun. It's tight, dude.
Starting point is 00:31:58 They're cool guns. Will you get me a Nerf gun for Christmas? Yes, I will. I like how you included the Dylan Chivory Functional Strength Academy in the photo as well. Yeah, my whole gem is in frame over there. Just one kettlebell
Starting point is 00:32:10 and one foam roller. Yeah, the kettlebell that Dave gave me. I didn't know you were a foam roller guy. Yeah, I use it for my back. Yeah, he rolls foam, dude. Roll foam, not coal.
Starting point is 00:32:22 I do it like every other day for my back. Is that in the spring line, Brett? Decompress a little bit. You know how it works, Dave. It's nice after a long day, Brett. Mama, check it out. I've done it like a million times, but I don't know if it actually does anything for me.
Starting point is 00:32:35 You can hear and feel the cracks. Yeah, I need to start getting better about it. I'm not very good. Just hang off the back of it. Back to my tree, though. Can I ask you a question? Just in general yeah so you're you're the christmas tree guy what are a few staples that you need in order to have a high score and what are some immediate because you said yourself that a fake tree is a one point deduction no matter what so what are some other deductions you have a fake tree you're starting off at a 9.0 okay and mine is fake okay other other
Starting point is 00:33:07 deductions are okay and this is personal taste but I feel like it should be it should be shut up recognized by everybody say it I like personalized ornaments I like ornaments that actually mean something if you go to Hobby Lobby and you buy a bundle of just globe ornaments, I hate your tree. Can I ask you a question? Can I clarify something on this? So Sally and I are putting together our Christmas collection currently,
Starting point is 00:33:35 trying to make sure that we have got a good Christmas tree for our first actual Christmas where we have a tree together. Am I allowed to buy sentimental things that I didn't get from somewhere online that are like a tribute to something? No. Yeah, yeah. So what we do has to be made from China. So I have to go back to London to get
Starting point is 00:33:55 the British one that Sally got to commemorate our Christmas last year? Unfortunately, you can do that, Will. So the tradition in my family is we buy ornaments for each other that kind of represent the year they've had. Or just like whatever. Like for Parks, no-brainer. I'm getting him a dinosaur one this year.
Starting point is 00:34:12 You got to. No-brainer. You got to. There also are a couple on here that we have made ourselves, which is cool. But not one of these is like a generic ornament. Not one of them. Okay. They all mean something.
Starting point is 00:34:24 Okay. And there's also a little Christmas list that Parks wrote out a couple years ago that I rolled up and stuck that in the tree. Oh, that's cute. I think so, too. That's cute. Yeah. So this is just an all-American tree. I'm not showing off here.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Just an all-American. The ornaments all mean something. I'm a color lights fan. That's known at this point. and I'm ashamed of it. So no deduction based. Are you deducting points for white lights? No, absolutely not. That's just personal taste. I just happen to prefer colored lights.
Starting point is 00:34:53 What about toppers? Toppers, you can see I have a topper. It's a star. It's a little... It's leaning a little bit. But that's okay. Yeah, it was leaning. That was a concern of mine. That's okay. Give me a.1 deduction for that if you must. Is tinsel automatic points off? I'm not much of a tinsel guy.
Starting point is 00:35:13 But I also don't like – If you have ribbon on your tree, hit the bricks. Really? Hit the bricks. Really? Yeah. You don't like tasteful ribbon once in a while? People just clutter their trees up with that mess. Some people overdo it. the bricks really yeah you don't like tasteful ribbon once in a while people's people just
Starting point is 00:35:26 clutter their trees up with that mess some people overdo it yeah people overdo it what's the big you can do some tasteful ribbon what's the big ornament at the very bottom that looks like heavy it's like almost the top of the present yeah so all the ones on the bottom are the ones at parks home because he's uh much shorter than i am and that one i believe is a snowman and i believe it's a couple snowmen next to each other and i think there's something i i forgot i would have to get back low key looks like truck nuts from this view yeah i think that would be tight it does kind of look like that we're putting up our tree either on thanksgiving or the day after thanksgiving and i'm really nervous for you to rate my tree. Okay. Well, I'm going to be honest. You know that.
Starting point is 00:36:06 He already came at my tree, unfortunately. Gross. I have a lot of generic balls in my tree. You're a young man. I don't have any cool, like— I know. Look, it's not an overnight thing. You have to acquire them over time.
Starting point is 00:36:21 The fact that you even put up a tree, Brad, at your age, living alone, when you don't necessarily have to, I'm giving you all the props in the world. Really? This year is going to be my first Christmas tree in somewhere that I live in Austin. Wow. So I have no ground to stand on. I'm complete trash when it comes to having a Christmas tree down here. Well, thank you.
Starting point is 00:36:38 I like putting it up. Oh, man, a lot of these are super meaningful. This is good stuff. Shut up. I'm just going to go to Kohl's and get a bunch of ornaments. That's what I did. Just use Kohl's cash on it. Just don't show them to Dylan.
Starting point is 00:36:50 I'm going to use Randy's discount. That's all Randy's getting for at this point. Do you see the tree that ruined Christmas that Dylan gave a 2.62? Yeah, that one. Is that the skinny one? That put me in a bad mood. So that was a real tree, though? Well, it's a fake tree.
Starting point is 00:37:07 The skinny tree's got to go. It was a real submission. Bulb lights, really skinny, and they just threw a Santa hat on top. I'm not spending Christmas at this house. I will leave. I don't know about the toppers on any of these. There's just like... Those are fake presents, if you look at the wrapping.
Starting point is 00:37:26 Yeah, that tree stinks. I'm putting your tree up on the Grom right now. Are you? Yeah, I'm going to ask people to rate it. Dude, what? People are going to be mean on purpose. No, we're going to space them out, Brett. People aren't going to space them out.
Starting point is 00:37:39 We're not going to be real about it. We should do a post where we put everybody's tree in one. You don't have faith in the backers that they can rate your Christmas tree? Why can you do it without anyone questioning your? I am fair. I'm neutral. They are just going to roast me just for the sake of it. They're going to make fun of stuff going on in the background, the house.
Starting point is 00:37:57 That is the biggest fear. Probably call Stella ugly. Shit like that. People posting. If you post anything from your house, they'll find something. If you post that Stella's ugly, you're getting blocked. Shit like that. People posting. If you post anything from your house. If you post. They'll find something. If you post that Stella's ugly, you're getting blocked. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Fair. Unless it takes us under 10.2K. At that point, we're not going to block anything. They're going to go with your crown molding or something. Do you have cool windows? I'd like to. Someone called me out for having closed captioning on my TV. That is funny. You do.
Starting point is 00:38:24 Yeah. I love it. I love it. I love it. Wait, even during games? During everything. It's always on. Oh, that's during a sporting event. I see.
Starting point is 00:38:32 I can't turn. The only thing I have closed captioning on for sports is on CBS Sports' app on PS4, and I cannot turn the closed captioning off on it, and it drives me insane to the point where
Starting point is 00:38:41 I don't even watch that anymore. It's become like a game with me. I pick out, like, all the grammatical errors in it and shit, which are a ton point where I don't even watch that anymore. It's become like a game with me. I pick out all the grammatical errors in it and shit. Counting fucking syllables and shit, nerd. They're doing the best they can. Yeah, they're trying.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Alright, well I'm going to put up my tree this week and you're going to get a tweet your way from At Will to Free. You guys are guaranteed to get a fair score. Yeah, I'm sure. If you give me a 7.7 I know that that's not going to be fair. We'll see what you're bringing. Can we talk about poncho real quick?
Starting point is 00:39:12 Talk about it. I am about it. Be about it. Don't just talk about it. Be about it like Dave. That's a fuego hat. That's torch. That is torch.
Starting point is 00:39:19 Pull back the curtain. I was a little worried that this hat, while it is very dope, would not fit my tiny little head. It does. Well, there's concern sometimes with rope hats. You have to be the rope hat guy that can really pull it off. Dylan's notorious for being a rope hat guy. He's got a big head, though.
Starting point is 00:39:33 Are we calling that an agave plant? What is that? Yeah, that's agave, dude. Great logo. Yeah. Fantastic. It's a great hat. We're big fans of Poncho.
Starting point is 00:39:43 If you don't know what Poncho is, that means you just don't follow us enough. Because we've been posting photos of Flounder just absolutely dripping. By the way, I don't think you need to point out that my head is big, but continue with the read. You have a big head. It's Ropat Friendly. Get on with the read. Are you 7 and 4 fifths or something? 7, 8, somewhere like that.
Starting point is 00:40:01 See, that's a giant dome. Yeah, I get it. It just doesn't, it's not in the, is it in the copy? It is. Is it in the copy? Is it in the copy? It says, go crazy with copy. So what did I do? I went loco on them. You have a big cabeza.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Okay. Cabeza mas grande. Yeah, let's move on. We've gotten a bunch of stuff from these guys. Fishing shirts. We got some t-shirts just sitting out there. It was like Christmas morning walking into the studio today. We just got t-shirts and hats just spread out everywhere.
Starting point is 00:40:24 These things are made for the life outdoors, not just fishing. They've got an incredible fit, super comfortable. We've got it all. I've got, like, this nice minty shirt that I can't wait. I can't wait for spring to spring. Don't say it. That's the future. So I can rock this thing.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Dylan rocks his at the ranch. You can rock this at a patio bar, though, if you want. I love mine. Oh, this plays. They play everywhere. Clay rocks it literally everywhere to the birth of his first child. They basically sponsored the birth of his child. Are you currently taking sponsorship opportunities, Dave?
Starting point is 00:40:56 We're fielding offers. Okay. Okay. Well, all you have to do is go to ponchooutdoors.com and use promo code CIRCLINGBACKGIFT. That's CIRCLINGBACKGIFT. That's CIRCLINGBACKGIFT at checkout to get a free hat or t-shirt when you order an outdoor shirt. You pick any hat or t-shirt that you want, add it to your cart, then use the promo code at checkout for the additional item to be free. That is very important.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Correct. It doesn't just automatically give you a hat or a t-shirt. You've got to add both to your cart, put the promo code in, and it'll knock the price off. Exactly. It's amazing stuff. It's a solid value. Very solid. Free?
Starting point is 00:41:28 Yeah. Yeah. That's ponchooutdoors.com and code CIRCLINGBACKGIFT at checkout to get a free hat or t-shirt with your order. This guy probably wears poncho, if I'm being honest. Talking about the dude that saved a puppy from an alligator this week. Can we just assume that it's Florida? Oh, the cigar man? It was confirmed Florida.
Starting point is 00:41:49 It has to be Florida. Okay. If it was anywhere else but Florida, I would have been absolutely floored. So this went viral on, I guess, yesterday. Saw it on the Twitter. Yesterday from Juan Vidal. He said, this guy saved a puppy from getting eaten by an alligator and never dropped his cigar. A true legend.
Starting point is 00:42:08 And what we have here is probably, can you guess people's ages? Yes, this man is 62 years old. He's older than 62. I was going to say 66. I was going to say 72, honestly. 62, all right, trust me. He is taking a baby alligator out of the water that has its mouth completely clamped onto this puppy. King Charles pup.
Starting point is 00:42:27 Is it a King Charles? Oh, yeah, it is. And he's just wrestling it in the water with a cigar in his mouth, and at no point does a cigar fall out of his mouth. Now, to be fair, it is a baby alligator. Yes. This story would have ended much, much differently had this been a regular size or even just like a slightly bigger size alligator.
Starting point is 00:42:44 This would have been very, very sad. How big are we talking here? It didn't look like a baby. It looked kind of like a child alligator. Yeah, okay, that's fair. It was small, but not tiny. Something's weird about child alligator. Well, you know what's weird about it is that they just stopped growing.
Starting point is 00:43:00 That's right. What if it was one that was like 10 million years old? Wow. What if we're just living on a 10 million year old alligator right now? That's how big it got. Dude, we're on the back of a turtle. That's kind of what the Native Americans believe, yeah. Turtle thing.
Starting point is 00:43:13 I don't know. Okay. What? Huh? Huh? Yeah. Dylan, can you clarify? Back check that.
Starting point is 00:43:18 I don't think that's a thing. The back of the turtle thing. The turtle thing is a thing. I don't know what culture it is. I think it's an era. Dude, no one thinks that. The turtle thing is a thing. I don't know what culture it is. I think it's an ear recording. When someone sent me this in a group text just with no text available, no context, it was just like, I thought this was going to end very badly.
Starting point is 00:43:35 And I was like, why would you send this? And it does not. It's fun. Apparently the puppy is okay. Had a puncture to the stomach. I wonder if this guy's hands got cut off. You have to think so, right? I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:43:50 You know when you hear certain animals have razor sharp teeth? Are they really razor sharp? No. I'm not. That's very sharp. You just cut your gums all up. They're probably sharp and they will cut you but razor sharp? Razor's not playing. I think sharks have serrated teeth, right? They're like a steak knife? Yeah. grind them like they do like the jaw thing like this so they can
Starting point is 00:44:09 shark out here what's up with florida just be just having like just scary creatures everywhere man they got the the python problem there too or maybe it's a boa constrictor i'm not sure one of those snakes that squeezes you big snake either way um just, man, the gators. Yikes. I don't know what I would do if I had a puppy that started getting eaten by an alligator. You would do the same thing. I would assume that the dad strength fight or flight thing would just come into play at this point. Your dad instinct will kick in for sure. I don't know how this puppy escaped without any major injuries.
Starting point is 00:44:45 That's what I don't get. This puppy should have three legs. It was probably just dragging it off to, you know, kill it. Death roll it. When the guy stepped in. It ran off like no big deal. Yeah. Walked off the field.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Everyone clapped. He was underwater when he got that thing out, too. You have to think a cigar went out. I want to know how this went down. Were they out there just hanging out, having a mimosa? He was probably on his patio having a nice cigar, dog running around playing. For whatever reason, let him play by a pond. That's my issue.
Starting point is 00:45:16 If you're in Florida, just don't let your dog near any water. He saw what happened and just ran up instinctually and did what he had to do. I could see this guy being a dog breeder, just being like, you're not taking this $2,000 away from me. Fuck that. Yeah, I don't know. You know at Disney World a little kid got eaten by a gator? At Disney World.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Really? Oh, yeah. Have you seen how Hook ends? Have you seen how the movie Hook ends? Hook. Okay. Were you thinking of the Blues Traveler? Where it just falls on him?
Starting point is 00:45:50 Yeah. He got eaten by an alligator. So was it alive or not? That never made sense to me. I was like, how did he get eaten by a clock? I don't know. It just happened to fall on him. Terrible timing.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Disney World get sued for that? Probably. Did he kill Eden or lost a leg? No, he's no longer with us. It's very, very sad and probably one of the worst things you could ever witness. Oh, my gosh. Did you think that he just got eaten and, like, came out the other side? No.
Starting point is 00:46:17 He just Jim Carrey'd. He Ace Ventura'd. Shark attack, like, got an arm ripped off, like, ate the arm. I don't know. How old was the kid? Two. Fucking fuck. Although,
Starting point is 00:46:33 he wasn't experiencing Disney World anyway. He doesn't know what's going on. Right? The kid lost his life, Brett. You're right. What's going on? RIP to that child. How'd your trip go?
Starting point is 00:46:47 The kid wasn't – Little Timmy died. But, you know, he was so young, he didn't know what was going on. Yeah, whatever. No big deal. For all he knows, he was at, like, Walmart or something. Sheesh. Luckily, he hadn't lived a life that was worth dying for.
Starting point is 00:47:05 I've got friends who bring their dogs duck hunting, and they're in the water. And even if they're in Texas, it still makes me a little nervous. Like there's going to be something in that water. Like our friend Tyler knew. He brings Barb. It could be blood in the water. It could be blood in the water.
Starting point is 00:47:21 I was just doing Dave Matthews references. Isn't that a thing? Don't drink the water. Don't drink the water. Don't drink the waters. Because there's blood in it, right? And now a song goes? I think that in the bridge, it's like, don't drink the water. Gators are scary, man.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Blood in the water. Yeah. They're dinosaurs. They're like all stealthy with the way they move through the water, you know? And they just come out and pop you. And get you. They're tight. They'll get you.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Are they? It's the official mascot of Wilmots. Can you outrun one They'll get you. They're tight. They'll get you. They're tight. It's the official mascot of Wilmonds. Can you outrun one on land? Yeah. I don't know. You've got to zigzag. Right. Their legs are very short.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Yeah. You've got to zigzag. They can move quickly just straight away. Like, that Cavalier King Charles puppy is not getting away from that alligator. Okay. Let's put it that way. Ooh, I would like to see in a controlled environment them race.
Starting point is 00:48:08 Because, like, puppies can get, dude. Dude, there are some little tiny dogs in our apartment that absolutely chop. Yeah. They just, like,
Starting point is 00:48:14 hover along the ground. It's crazy. I love it. Hover dogs? Yeah. The future? Yeah. That's just,
Starting point is 00:48:23 that's like a different, yeah, it's a different version. They use gravity to hover. Can you use gravity to hover? I feel like gravity stops you from hovering. It's the premise of a lot of time travel. I've looked into it. I don't understand time travel.
Starting point is 00:48:36 Can you explain it? It's because you can't do it. You can never fully understand it until you've traveled. Literally everybody. Are you ever in public and you just see people and you're like, that's an alien? I had an experience the other day. No. I was waiting to get a sandwich at Swedish Hill downtown,
Starting point is 00:48:52 and I just had this family in front of me, and I was like, these are Third Rock from the Sun people. These people, they weren't born here. They are here now trying to act like a normal family. They just act different. There's some weird, socially awkward people out there. Lil Wayne. Whole families of them. they are here now trying to act like a normal family they just act different there's just there's some weird socially awkward people
Starting point is 00:49:06 out there Lil Wayne whole families of him he's not from the earth he's a Martian true wasn't he supposed to die like 10 years ago
Starting point is 00:49:17 during that documentary because he was drinking so much codeine he had an issue I feel like he was on a plane he was just trying to kill a cough.
Starting point is 00:49:27 Kill a cardio. Kill a cardio. Kill a cardio. I don't really have much else other than I'm really, I'm very happy that this puppy escaped with just some minor cuts and scrapes. Sneaky shout out to the person who had the presence of mind to pull out their phone and record this event.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Yeah, why don't you help Grandpa out? Right? No, he's good, dude. Right? Once Grandpa hops in the water, it's over. This ain't the first time Grandpa's done this. They should know that there's gators in that. Right.
Starting point is 00:49:53 So, like, don't let your kids... Don't let your puppy play by the killer pond. Don't let your kids or pets play near the pond. Fair. Don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys, either. Mm-hmm. Man. What? I'm just watching the video again i know it's great if you're if you ever wonder what we're talking about just know that it's on the tl right now this was so vi that like it has 12 million views and it's also been quote tweeted on at circling back pod uh there has been clamoring for us to maybe make a listener guide on
Starting point is 00:50:25 Instagram once in a while. We might do that in the future but for right now it's on the ground. You're going to be seeing this for the next two weeks. I kind of wish we'd waited until like three weeks from now to bring this story up. I know we need to start tabling the good things. We're too quick. Now this is all we do we're like not late at all.
Starting point is 00:50:41 The ideal thing is for something to happen Wednesday afternoon and then not be able to talk about it until Monday. It's just like a built-in governor for us. Can we talk about Headspace real quick? New sponsor alert. Dylan, you do it. New sponsor. New sponsor alert.
Starting point is 00:50:55 Headspace is an app that I've used numerous times in my life. I have it downloaded on my phone. Same. And it got me through some maybe anxious nights during quarantine. Not going to lie. Dude, I've been talking about Headspace for a minute now. I love Headspace. I mean, Dylan, life can be stressful under normal circumstances,
Starting point is 00:51:09 but 2020 has challenged even the most difficult times of life. You need stress relief that goes beyond just quick fixes, and that, my friends, is Headspace. If you're not familiar, Headspace is your daily dose of mindfulness in the form of guided meditations and an easy-to-use app. Headspace is one of the only meditation apps advancing the fields of mindfulness and meditation through clinically validated research. So whatever the situation, Headspace really can help you feel better.
Starting point is 00:51:31 If you're overwhelmed, Headspace has a three-minute SOS meditation for you. Need some help falling asleep? Man, why didn't I cue this up last night? I came into the studio today complaining about how badly I slept last night. Dumb, dumb. Headspace has wind-down sessions that members swear by. And for parents, Headspace even has morning meditations you can do with your kids. You and Park's trying to get a meditation off?
Starting point is 00:51:52 Maybe. Headspace's approach to mindfulness can reduce stress, improve sleep, boost focus, and increase your overall sense of well-being. Like I said, I've used this before. I love this dude's voice. I love it. He's just a kind British dude just telling you that everything's going to be all right. It's beautiful. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:52:10 Do they have different voices you can choose? Yes. Okay. Headspace is backed by over 25 published studies on its benefits. It has 600,000 five-star reviews and over 60 million downloads. If we did that for like an episode of Circling Back, you could consider us to be pretty successful. Dude, meditation is sick.
Starting point is 00:52:29 And if you're one of those people who's never tried it and you just think it's like a weird thing, it's not. It takes like three, like the first few lessons are like three minutes. That's all it takes. And it's extremely helpful. They have a beginner's guide even.
Starting point is 00:52:42 You can go in and it'll guide you through what you need to understand in order to get the most out of it. I had never done it before until downloading Headspace. It was my first experience with it, and it's awesome. We like Headspace so much that I'm pretty sure that on an episode like a year ago, we just talked about it. We did. We just talked about getting meditations off. We did. Meditation.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Time to breathing. Yeah, that's good. I thought you were going to say, like, stop stressing. But, yeah, that worked out better than what I had. You deserve to feel happier, and Headspace's meditation made simple. Go to headspace.com slash circling. That's headspace.com slash circling for a free one-month trial with access to Headspace's full library of meditations for every situation.
Starting point is 00:53:21 That is the best deal offered right now. Head to headspace.com slash circling today. Good logo, too. Oh, I mean, everything they do is aesthetically pleasing and calming. I'm just looking at that, and I'm basically meditating. I just like opening the app and just seeing the little animations they have in there. They're really good.
Starting point is 00:53:38 They're very chill. So you guys see that you can now grow your own human steaks. They have a meal kit for it. You guys want to do that? I'm sorry, what? What exactly is a human steak, Will? You're a human steak.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Yeah, you kind of are a human steak. So I didn't know. I just saw this on Fox News. You're a big Fox News guy. Is that what you had on your TV in your Christmas trip? Oh, come on, man. We're not doing this. It says, grow your own human steaks meal kit is not technically cannibalism, makers say.
Starting point is 00:54:07 It's weird that the makers of this meal kit would say that it's not cannibalism. Because now it's all you think about. Because that's illegal. Eating humans is illegal? Eating humans, yes. Yeah. Someone should tell alligators that. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:21 At Disney World. I'm so confused by this. Why would anybody want to try this? This is a DIY meal kit for growing steaks made from human cells that was recently nominated for a Designer of the Year award by the London-based Design Museum. Named the Ouroboros. I don't even know how to say that. Do you guys care if I just botch that? Ouroboros.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Ouroboros steak after the circular symbol of a snake eating itself tail first. That's weird. It's just eating its own ass. The hypothetical kit would come with everything one needs to use their own cells to grow miniature human meat steaks. Okay. If part of your company line is like, we swear this isn't cannibalism, maybe you're not doing something that's too appealing to people.
Starting point is 00:55:01 If you have to tell your advertisers, like, okay, just to be clear, we're not promoting that you eat other humans. You're just eating yourself. I don't understand why this is a thing, why people are trying to do this. Why not recreate, like, bovine cells? I think they're doing that, too. But that's like lab meat.
Starting point is 00:55:24 We've talked about lab meat. We've talked about growing meat in labs before. But not human. But never from the cells from your actual body. Is there some like scientific benefit for this? Like they're able to maybe regrow.
Starting point is 00:55:36 Is it like organs? Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. That's probably where this stemmed from. No pun intended. Nice. No pun intended. Randy loves that. It says the project
Starting point is 00:55:45 was made as a critique of the lab-grown meat industry which the designers told Dizine Magazine is not actually as animal friendly as one might expect. Lab-grown meat relies on a fetal bovine serum for animal cell cultures though some companies have claimed to have found alternatives.
Starting point is 00:56:01 I'm still not eating will meat. Nah, I'm not trying to eat myself. Would you do a meat exchange? Say I made my meat. Say ButcherBox isn't just sending fire meat our way every day anymore. And you and I get this meal kit. Are you going to do a meat swap with me? Just trade meats to see who tastes better?
Starting point is 00:56:21 Yeah. I should do a meat spin. Oh, we could do a wheel and see what meat you get. Right. Yeah, I'm never going to try human meat trading in a lab. Okay, Mr. Closed-Minded. It's something I'm never going to do. I'm good.
Starting point is 00:56:35 What if it's like that place, what if it's like the bite of meat at Uchi? I'm a hot rock. I'll say this. I don't want anybody else. When I think about you, I eat myself. When I think about you. Why would you eat yourself?
Starting point is 00:56:53 That's just how hot you are. How confused would you be if like your dad gave you like a, he opened up his refrigerator at home and he just had a bunch of like Don meat in there. I'm going to throw me on the grill. Yep. I'm going to go through. I'm smoking me. Smoking these me's. I feel like Dylan could make
Starting point is 00:57:09 a killing just selling tube steak. Okay. Is tube steak an actual thing? No one thinks. No one like gets more humor out of tube steaks than Dylan. No. I love a good tube steak joke. My first day at Grand X Dave just threw me in the conference room with him at one side of the table, me on the other.
Starting point is 00:57:27 And then Dylan came in to say what up. And I guarantee you made a tube steak joke like day one. Hey, if you're not doing anything for lunch later, you want to go get some tube steak? I'm looking at their website. Have you signed up? This is, I don't understand. Are you trying to cop or what? Growing yourself ensures that you and your loved ones always know the origin of your food,
Starting point is 00:57:49 how it has been raised, and that its sales were acquired ethically and consensually. Weren't people doing that to make bread, too? Are we sure this is real? This is real. This was Fox News? Fox, I mean. Oh, debatable. You never know, David.
Starting point is 00:58:03 Okay. The website's certainly real. I mean, we could talk about the other meat news on our rundown. Greg Norman. Shark meat? Shark meat. What is he doing? He knows exactly what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Dave, I'm going to let you explain what's going on here. Why? Because you're the one who told us to add it to the rundown. I said, just look at this. Greg Norman. The shark. A.k.a. the shark. Actually, you know that course I played on the beach in Mexico?
Starting point is 00:58:35 That was a Greg Norman course. Was it really? He's in phenomenal shape, by the way. How old do you think he is? 64. 69. 65. You went over. Price is? 64. 69. 65. You went over.
Starting point is 00:58:48 Price is right rules. Hashtag Chad. Nice guess, though. So, yeah, he posted it on his Instagram. It was just like a good photo of him and his dog on the beach, which is cool. And that's where it ends. Unless you look closer. And then you will notice that he is about 80% torqued.
Starting point is 00:59:08 Yes. And it's honestly, you don't even have to look closer. It's obvious. We'll give him that chub. I mean, I like being on the beach with my dog, too. I don't know if it's ever going to torp me, but... Good for him. Have to think there is a scantily clad
Starting point is 00:59:25 young lady that he saw. His tea is just so just out of here. Maybe just H for life. I mean he's I would be if I was Greg Norman to be honest. He's a wine
Starting point is 00:59:35 a wine millionaire. A jacked senior citizen with a huge piece. Aussie. And a winery. Yeah. It's not a bad life.
Starting point is 00:59:44 And a bunch of golf courses. Yeah. Yeah. It sounds like a pretty decent thing to be a part piece. Aussie. And a winery. Yeah, it's not a bad life. And a bunch of golf courses. Yeah, a bunch of golf courses. Yeah, it sounds like a pretty decent thing to be a part of, yeah. I probably would walk around with a boner all the time, too. Wake up torqued, you know? He just stays hard. But he's just John Hamming here so hard. Because you can see John Ham's, like, piece pretty much everywhere he goes.
Starting point is 01:00:01 This is more, this is like, this is like planned. This is like, hey, we're going to use this one because it is so obvious that I am having a good time. Someone just commented, great photo, five exclamation points. Awesome, five exclamation points. No underwear, five exclamation points. Well, that's not, okay, he's on the beach. I mean, no one's wearing underwear at the beach, right? Someone said, love the middle leg, mate.
Starting point is 01:00:26 He eats a small one. Man, I hope I look like that when I'm his age, man. He's in great shape. He's unbelievable. Middle leg. He deserves all the praise he's getting for this photo. Oh, he limited the comments on the post. Nice kickstand, mate.
Starting point is 01:00:43 Somebody said shark, dog, and python. But he didn't limit the comments before Derek Fandle said eggplant emoji in the shorts emoji. Is that a cap wedge? A cap wedge? Okay. I don't think I get it. I don't know if I get it.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Like a mushroom cap. Yeah, that's too far. Who was this? Ryan Fandul? His name was Derek. Oh. Thank you, Derek. Somebody said, Greg, the lady's going to DM you.
Starting point is 01:01:16 There's a horse walking that dog. This was so egregious that the New York Post did an entire story about it. Good for Greg. That's where I saw it. More like New York Most. Sorry. I don't know what I'm doing. Jeez.
Starting point is 01:01:34 Dylan, the reviews of your tree are coming in. Oh, yeah? What are they saying? Someone said 4.20, which I don't know why they put the zero on there. 4.20. Someone said 6.20, which I don't know why they put the zero on there. 4.20. Someone said 6.9. Nice. Actually, I don't know if this person's talking about your tree or if they're talking about
Starting point is 01:01:50 Greg Norman's photo, but it says 7.5 leans a little bit to the left. Oh. Hey. Come on. The topper is leaning. The tree is perfectly upright. But thanks for weighing in, jerk. perfectly upright.
Starting point is 01:02:02 But thanks for weighing in. Jerk. Why do I like Australian golfers more than like any golfers from any other country besides the United States?
Starting point is 01:02:12 Is it because they're non-threatening? It's like we don't have to face them in the Ryder Cup. We only have to worry about President's Cup and stuff which no
Starting point is 01:02:18 one really cares about anyway. Probably, yeah. Well, and the Aussies are just, they just put off a vibe. Somebody you want to just chill with.
Starting point is 01:02:27 Also true. Also true. Unless it's the legs on Greg Norman, not even talking about the middle leg, like his regular legs. He's vascular. He's very, very stacked. I feel like Barrett's going to turn into him at some point. Barrett's going to have to put on some mass, though.
Starting point is 01:02:41 He's lean. Yeah, he's too lean. One time I was talking to Barrett about just his workout habits and going to the gym, and I was like, yeah, I'm just trying to get in better shape. He goes, no, not me. I'm where I'm at. I'm where I want to be. I just want to maintain. Like, man, imagine being like... He's told me that, too. Imagine
Starting point is 01:02:55 having a body that you've always just wanted. Does he just tell this to everybody to flex on people? Well, he talked about plateauing, and he's like, yeah, I've kind of realized that i'm not gonna i'm not gonna gain anymore without like um significantly changing my lifestyle so he's like i'm just gonna maintain this that's a great i mean he's shredded so and that is true because like a guy if he's got a his frame isn't made to stack mass so for him to do that he would have to like
Starting point is 01:03:21 eat you know just probably wouldn't worth it. Fuck it. He looks good. Jack is not in anymore. No. I mean, I had to change my lifestyle to lose a little weight, and I didn't make any major changes, but I made enough changes, and I'm done making changes. I don't want to, like, I don't want to do that shit. You showed me a photo the other day of some dude that was just jacked to the tits, and you were like, why would you ever want to be this big?
Starting point is 01:03:41 My Explore page, I get served a bunch of fitness stuff, and it's just guys that are like bodybuilders. Flex, dude. And I'm like, why would anyone want to be 5'10", 285 of just pure muscle? Yeah. I don't get it. Makes no sense to me. You look absolutely ridiculous. I guess if I was like 5'9", or 5'10", I would want to do that too.
Starting point is 01:04:02 Shouts for the short kings out there. We don't give them enough love on this podcast apparently We're dedicating the rest of this episode To anyone under the height of 5'9 I don't get why anyone would want to look like that But tweet your own If it makes you happy, go do your thing It's just weird to me
Starting point is 01:04:20 So back to this middle leg You gotta think Greg Olson is... Back to this man's penis. Finally a trademark infringement here. He's third leg Greg, according to the Miami Sixth Floor Crew. Who? Greg Olson? Third leg Greg? You never heard that song? Big penis?
Starting point is 01:04:38 Oh. You've never heard that rap? It's from his days at the U? Yeah. They recorded a rap song together. I'm surprised you haven't heard this. It's quite aggressive. I think I remember the story, but I've never heard that rap? It's from his days at the U? Yeah. They recorded a rap song together. I'm surprised you haven't heard this. It's quite aggressive. I think I remember the story, but I've never seen or heard the song. They released the song, correct?
Starting point is 01:04:50 Yes. Okay, I was going to say. It's in the U, the documentary. I think I got it from like Kazaa or something. That sounds about right. I don't know if I downloaded it, but I definitely have heard the song. I mean, I wasn't putting it on at parties and stuff. You didn't hand me the aux and I was just like, all right.
Starting point is 01:05:03 I love the range of the New York Post. They can tell you about Hunter Biden's laptop and Greg Norman's dong in the same paper. When I'm in a bad mood, sometimes I just go there just to see a story that's just really stupid. When you see that logo, it immediately triggers like, oh, here we go. This is going to be a wild one. Greg Norman's innocent dog photo has an x-rated twist like they have like nbc ditching nfl thanksgiving tradition and broadcast reshuffle and then right next to it it just says officials warn salty drivers do not let moose lick
Starting point is 01:05:35 your car oh i i read that that's now that's some there's some information there you have to let a moose lick your car if he wants to lick your car. Wait, what's wrong with a moose licking your car? Is he going to get stuck to it? No, they get very comfortable around cars, and the more cars they seek out to lick, the more likely they are to be, you know, struck by a vehicle. Oh, that's sad. But it also says they're obsessed with salt. It's scary. Because they don't get salt from very many places.
Starting point is 01:05:59 That's why they put out salt licks for hunting and stuff. I wonder... Interesting. I mean, how do you stop stuff. I wonder... Yeah. Interesting. I mean, how do you stop a moose from... Yeah, what are you going to do? Excuse me, sir? Put that tongue away? Hey, get out of here.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Get the hose. I think it's weirdly like a $25,000 fine if you get caught feeding a moose. Or meese. You're absolutely correct. This isn't just a recommendation. Visitors found feeding or disturbing wildlife risk facing a $25,000 fine.
Starting point is 01:06:32 That's tuition. Seems aggressive. Oh, did you see the in New York, you are there's a bill on the table to pay people for reporting parking infringements? No yeah it's trash so if you i'm doing that you get commish if you report people parking like dickheads dirty money i'm in
Starting point is 01:06:53 let's do it 25 by the way i think i kind of parked bad today i need to go fix it what's your problem dude i don't know wouldn't it wasn't all me there are some dudes that drive like 350s in our parking lot that just park like dickheads up top. Yeah, up top's a different ballgame. Like sometimes you can just pretty much get like blocked in. Yeah. Wild. You think Joe Exotic had like a cage where there was just like a moose and like a Mitsubishi?
Starting point is 01:07:16 Mm-hmm. Moose was just like back there. You could go back there and watch it lick the car. Mm-hmm. Tiger King. I'm trying to think of a pun, but I don't have one. A moose, a Mo. Amuse-abishi. Okay.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Okay. Is it time to go? Dylan's gone silent. No, no. We got breath-breaking news presented by Raycon because it's never too early to start gift shopping for the holidays, especially today. Because you can save big on a gift that you use every day. Raycon wireless earbuds.

These things last, like, so long that I always, like, kind of wonder. I'm like, what's going on right now? You can't remember the last time you charged them.
Starting point is 01:08:22 And, like, you're like, okay. It's a great problem to have. It is. but it kind of makes you worried. Like, man, I haven't charged these things in a long time, and they're just lasting. Are they going to go out of me at any moment? Turns out they don't. It's great. Audio quality's great. Compile to what you get from other premium brands, except Raycons start at half the price, which is usually

Starting point is 01:09:11 You didn't ask, though. Dylan, a little choose-your-adventure here. Would you like to go the Mafia, an Eastern Asian country that Dave refers to as Japan, turkeys, or cartoon hogs? Turkeys, for sure. All right. According to the Los Angeles Times, which is on par with the New York Post, I believe, in journalistic quality,
Starting point is 01:09:33 big turkeys are out this year. More guys are in. I could have told you that. Farmers have a problem. Much like big arms. I actually saw a little local news story about this as well. Oh, yeah? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:47 People aren't buying big turkeys, which makes sense because there's smaller gatherings this year. So the little turkeys are all slaughtered. They're all gone. And the big turkeys are now being sold for parts. So they're also slaughtered? Yeah. Everybody's getting slaughtered still.
Starting point is 01:10:04 Okay. They're still going getting slaughtered still. Okay. They're still going to die, Dave. Yeah. But farmers were like, man, these guys are too big, so we're just going to have to cut you in half. What does a little turkey sound like? Cabba, cabba, cabba, cabba. You know, turkeys can – if you don't kill a turkey, you know it can grow forever?
Starting point is 01:10:18 That's right. In a vacuum. Mm-hmm. Wow. In a Dyson. Unfortunately,ers are They have to improvise And so you just
Starting point is 01:10:28 You're just buying half turkeys All over the place this year So that's all I got Yeah that's Okay Yeah They're just getting Spatchcocked and sold for parts
Starting point is 01:10:39 Beer can shoved up their butt Something like that Will You're a fan of Cartoon Hogs right Like Porky the Pig Shark Randy did you yell me out here beer can shoved up their butt. Something like that. Will, you're a fan of cartoon hogs, right? Like Porky the Pig? Shark. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:48 Randy, could you help me out here? Did Porky do something bad? Pumbaa? SpongeBob. Okay. SquarePants. Verified Twitter account put this tweet up last night and say, with the quote,
Starting point is 01:10:59 the look on their faces says it all. The verified Twitter account. Wow. So in cartoon hog news, Patrick is hung like Greg Norman. All right. That's big. I mean, I've never watched this program, unfortunately. You've never watched SpongeBob?
Starting point is 01:11:15 I haven't either. No. Man, I haven't either, but I love the memes. It's like the most memed show of all time. I have no context for them, but I know that what they're doing is quality. Big time question here. Is it a kid's show? Yes. But I think that
Starting point is 01:11:29 I was like the last year. That's not a crazy question. Family Guy is not a kid's show, but it is a cartoon. None of you guys have watched Spongebob. I think I was like the last generation. I'm separating me from you guys. You guys are a little older than me. A couple years. But I think I was the last one to not watch it you know what I mean and then
Starting point is 01:11:49 everyone younger than me started watching it yeah I was gonna say the same about me but I guess it goes on to you my squad did not watch but we never watched it really so no what's I wonder the the cutoff's like 1990 or so like did you? Yeah. Okay. That's why I'm like surprised. Like Hey Arnold and all the like Rocket Power and shit. I watched Rocket Power, but I always felt like a little, I felt like I was aged out of Rocket Power a little bit. Damn. Well, this meme didn't hit as hard then. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:12:17 No, it's still. Like we said, we're here for the memes. Okay. We just didn't watch the show. I like the memes. Oh, the memes are great. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 01:12:24 There's like that guy sitting at the table eating a sandwich like uh anyway dave japan you know you know them yeah um well they have a the pandemic and the um smaller than normal um acorn crop this year is leading to bear problems. And so the bears are intruding onto human habitats, looking for more food because there's less activity from humans, restaurants and stuff like that. They are going into farms instead of like picking out of the trash and shit. So therefore, there's been deaths, there's been broken legs, there's been there's been deaths there's been broken legs there's been bear attacks there's been like they're eating hundreds of acres of crops at a time so uh the japan is making robot wolves randy
Starting point is 01:13:17 what in the world um what in the world sorry no? No. I'm out. These robot wolves that we can put on our Twitter emit a 90 decibel roar and charge at bears. Japan made this? Yes. I got to say, this looks like something me and my buddies would make. Yes. I thought those were toilet paper rolls underneath it and not just like. Yeah, it kind of looks like shit. This is.
Starting point is 01:13:45 It's not so much a robot, right? I mean, is it move itself? Or is it... Unclear. Unclear. It's more of a scarecrow. Right, that's kind of what I was thinking. Scarewolf.
Starting point is 01:13:59 Yeah, if this thing was sprinting at me, I would be scared shit... I'd be more scared of this if it was sprinting at me, like a bionic wolf, than I would an actual wolf sprinting at me. They just didn't have to make it look so scary. Yikes. I do like that they're using robot wolves. That's a pro. It sounds like they're not going to open it up and kill the bears, which is cool because I'm pro bear. Sure.
Starting point is 01:14:22 kill the bears, which is cool because I'm pro-bear. Sure. But... It's a wolf with a cat's face. Like a feral cat face. It's a true... The sirens, like the tornado sirens under its belly, like the undercarriage
Starting point is 01:14:39 siren, there's just a lot. And I feel like they didn't have to... I don't know. That tail's a little unrealistic as well. It's just a lot and i feel like they didn't have to i don't know that tail's a little unrealistic as well oh you mean the uh it's like a solar panel the the garmin coming out of its ass uh the entrepreneur says a gopro the guy who who is making these in his garage has sold about 70 wolves so far good Good for him. Can we buy one? Potentially. Does that come with like a sassy setting?
Starting point is 01:15:09 Imagine a nine-year-old. That's more of an owl. What was that? Oh, Dave was talking about barn owls on the course on Friday. Apparently they're scary shit. Bar owls? Barn. Oh.
