It sucks that you have a – It sucks that that woot band is not just like a leather strap. Yeah. Had I known, I would have brought my leather strap today. Do you know that he has – Do you know that Scott Desik has his own clothing brand?

What's it called? Talentless? It's called Talentless. Oh, that makes perfect sense for me. Yeah, I didn't know about it until I saw someone wearing it one time, and I said, wow, dude, that's actually a pretty tight T-shirt and short combo. Where's that from? And he said, oh, Scott Disick's brand, Talentless.

Was this Drew? No, of course it was Drew. Of course it was my brother-in-law, Drew. He crushed it. I get served Talentless ads all the time. I'll be honest, Dave. If I could switch him some clothes for that matching set from Talentless,. He crushed it. I get served talentless ads all the time. I'll be honest, Dave. If I could switch him some clothes for that matching set from talentless,

I would do it. I could go buy myself. Shut up, dude. They do a three t-shirt bundle that I'm kind of intrigued by. I want to look like Disick too, Dave. See, it's compliment, man. So you've looked into this. No, I get served ads all the time, like I said. They hit me with it.

If you get served them all the time, you're clearly at least hit me with it. If you get served them all the time, you're clearly at least not scrolling by them immediately. Because I'm like, oh, that's Scott. What's Scott Disick up to? Just admit that you're obsessed with Scott Disick. I'm not. I think he's a total asshole, actually. Yeah, what's the story on him?

I know he has three children, Mason Dash Disick, great name, Penelope Scotland Disick, and Rain Aston Disick. But other than that, what's the story on this guy? He used to be with Kourtney Kardashian. He's he's not anymore dude i love it when it rains ass tons okay that's a pun off of scott disick's child's name come on man just an ass ton of anything's good okay like what so we're just gonna skewer this guy because he happens to date young models instead of hanging out with his who's. Who's skewering him? Oh, I don't know.

I think he's an asshole because I've seen him do some asshole things on that show. But he's the people's asshole though. He stuffed a $100 bill in some waiter's mouth one time because – Okay. If I'm a waiter and a patron decides to shove a $100 bill in my mouth, I'm not asking questions. I'm taking that and I'm putting it in my wallet and I'm not claiming it on my taxes. It was very disrespectful. You didn't tip our waitress friday you just gave her our

leftover meat i i tipped her quite well yeah she took advantage of of us i think yeah of our generosity and kindness that's fine um we're having a great time i think if people do take advantage of your generosity hey dave what'd you do the other night when that what the fuck why'd you just step over him he's making a say nothing i don't even know nothing it doesn't matter now go on and he was coughing rubbing his eyes like he was like like it's amazing it's truly amazing what's truly amazing you just started a sentence when you started that what were you saying i don't even know i genuinely don't know i definitely was deep enough into the sentence that it didn't require

hey dave uh i thought you were done i was i definitely was all right ask dave your question what's truly amazing i don't know not you what were you gonna ask me doing nothing nothing the moment's ruined the only episode of uh keeping up with the kardashians i've ever watched it's the one where for some reason i think disick's like hammered and he's like looking at himself in the mirror and then he punches the mirror like in the glass shatters and it's just like okay he's got some demons you all right he's got some demons just don't punch him here is that like a brother restaurant to willman's no hi demons it's your boy

david i was gonna ask what you we did other night when that you the concert you went to got canceled at the last second the one in oxford that you went to you're not around for the one oh the other one yeah you went to that concert you traveled to mississippi you were really pissed when they canceled the concert five minutes before it started a morgan wallen concert was canceled five minutes before your spotify most listened to guy we did we checked oh i missed i really did miss this uh morgan wallen canceled his concert uh with about five minutes to spare before it started because he, quote, lost his voice. There are rumors flying around that he might have been hammered at a certain baseball game happening in Oxford, Mississippi that day.

It's really hard to say. Let's see. Who would that be? Should we bring Brett in? Maybe he can shed some light on this. He's the king of Oxford. Yeah. I saw a clip spliced on TikTok.

You know how the kids are doing that. They're splicing these videos on TikTok. They're doing... Using software? Yeah, and other things. And it showed the difference between Morgan Walling canceling his concert due to him losing his voice versus how Luke Combs handled it, where he refunded all of his patrons for the concert, but then still performed the concert,

just letting them know that it wouldn't be as good. And so he's getting skewered for not being as high and mighty. Not high and mighty, but for not handling it as well as some other artists have in his space okay um then this is on the heels of the uh famous or infamous frank ocean coachella debacle so wow what's going on why are musical artists doing this don't go ahead what do you think? I got nothing. What's up with these musical artists? I was just wondering if you still went out around and did something that night. That's all I was asking. I didn't go to Oxford.

I was with you. I saw you Friday and Saturday, really. I did see you Saturday, too, didn't I? Yeah, I left straight from the baby shower. I hopped on a PJ to go to Oxford. No invites for any of us? No, it was with raging bull they were teaching me how to day trade again we need to do a video where we impersonate them doing their pitches to be fair the my guy was really nice in person oh i they were all really

nice in person do you remember like how long we sat there at that house well that one dude tried to get his like video done no one knows don't even start with me we don't even you left early no you left i could have i could have you could have never seen me again that day david i know there could have been a sting operation that ended with like a gun pointed at my head and me being like uh i'm gonna get out of here i gotta leave yeah i have not committed any financial crimes god dylan didn't get to go on a PJ. Yeah, I didn't get that invite. You're still 0 for on PJs. That's alright, though. Yeah. Masters and Super Bowls kind of replaced the PJ for you.

Yeah, that's true. I'll trade that. I'll take mine. I would rather go to the Masters and the Super Bowl instead of taking a 45 minute PJ flight to Dallas. I'd trade that for sure. Yeah.

Yeah, that's true. That's fair. Dylan Chivary, ladies and gentlemen. Already got intro. Good to be here, though, man. Strong weekend. Good to be here. Yeah, we're going to get to that here shortly.

We got a big, big episode. Tomorrow, we're doing Do You Know at a Game Show podcast. Some people like it. Some people question the validity of it based on some decisions that are made by the host during it. But I'm not one of those people. I love doing it personally. I'm due. You're due.

You could use a win. I mean, as long as music is heavily featured in the questioning, I'm not going to do well. You are... not good no you you seem to i don't know i'm musically stupid i think you know i think you play both sides of the music part what do you mean like you talk about how good dill dill's faves is but then you also say that you can't do the music part of the the game show segment i mean i have music that i like and listen to, but I'm just not good at connecting the dots to them.

Dude, maybe Randy will do you solid and tomorrow will be like a Michael Bay-themed episode. I don't watch Michael Bay. I mean, I've seen a Michael Bay film. You exclusively watch Michael Bay films. If I listen to a song and I really like it, I don't find out who it is what the song's called i just like i just it's just too much work to look at your phone to it it's not

not on my phone like you know i'm just talking like out and out in the environment you know will's got a record player i do know that yeah i got to ship the speakers back this morning can i tell you something funny this isn't actually funny but can i tell you something about your record player yeah um i saw a video that was edited and the the solo from freebird was put over it's a dog picking up a camera phone and or not a camera phone but like a a phone that has the camera on and it's running around and freebirds blaring and it's i started listening to freebird because i'm like man that's you know what i know it's kind of a punch line but like that's solo sick really started listening to Freebird because I'm like, man, that's, you know what? I know it's kind of a punchline, but like that's solo sick. Really started listening to it. And you know what thought I had?

This would sound sick on vinyl. Can I come over and listen to Freebird? I actually had my first moment this weekend where I thought, oh, fuck. Okay. I kind of get it. I kind of understand why people think that this sounds so much better. It was the first time I really had that moment where I was like, okay, yeah, this can be better than just listening to it through a Bluetooth speaker.

Did your wife walk in and be like, dude, what are you? Yeah, are you good? She hates me. You starting out the window listening? Now I have to turn on like a random fucking NBA playoff game so people don't accuse me of anything. Being a weirdo? Yeah, heaven forbid.

Heaven forbid we do anything alone in our apartments. She walks in, you're watching like Stars Wild. She's like, are you okay? Are you fucked up? I'm just trying to be normal. Just living. I'm just paranoid. Let me exist.

I'm just trying to listen to fucking Taylor Swift. Now, if she walked in and me and you were just listening to Freebird very loudly then i understand her asking questions no i mean yeah she's probably asking like where's where's the cocaine yeah we can kind of have some we snorted it all with our noses that's what we do when we listen to freebird on our fucking turntables guys like us we do cocaine then we do a neti pot to clean out our sciences. We're just safe like that. Yeah. Yeah.

We do a little mist. It's good for your system. Yeah. You got to clear the system out. It's fine. It's, it's okay to do drugs as long as you clear the system out, like right after doing them,

make sure you test them though. Like ask them questions. It's not, they studied. Don't do cocaine. You don't know what's in there. You can just call it cocaine. Cocaine.

I got the joggers on. Got the joggies on. Hand up. I'm not wearing any Rowback right now, but that doesn't mean that I don't want to be. Davey's joggied up right now. Hey, stand up for the people, Dave. Stop objectifying me.

I played golf. I played a little golf on Friday, and yeah, I was wearing a Robie. If I recall, they just announced a

Friday, went to dinner with you guys actually and had honestly an excellent time a lot happened that night um i didn't know where to start a lot happened can we start with um wine the uh carafe incident some people call it a carafe

you do whatever you want yeah we we got on our second carafe of wine i was a little anemia a little a little inebriated at the time i started to pour myself a glass and i stopped paying attention so i just kept pouring and before i knew it my glass was about 75 full and everyone got a good laugh out of that including the waitress who decided to pull out her phone take a picture go back to the bar and show her coworkers what I had done. They thought that was really funny. It's amazing that you've been a part of two interactions with waitresses that I would put up there with two of my favorite interactions with waitresses ever. What was Friday night when she took a photo of the ridiculous glass of wine that you poured yourself?

And the other one was from the time that we went to a restaurant and you ordered a Frosé and the waitress simply told you, you're not getting that. What else do you want? I said, oh, I want a Frosé. I've been craving a Frosé for weeks and I finally got my chance to order one. She flat out said, I'm not getting you a Frosé. No, you tried to yam it and it went off the back of the rim and just flew out to half court. I ordered a bourbon drink. She was high key flirting with you though.

Yeah. She probably wanted it. Okay. Not like. Jesus like not sexually she wanted like your glass of wine my phone she wanted your 75 full glass of wine it was a ludicrously capacious pour it was i stole that from a listener who responded to my story at dc rough not there anymore the story where i posted that photo maybe we'll post it circling back but you could always follow me for content like that. Just relax. Then we went to deep Eddie, shout out Texas dives on the ground. Uh, we went to deep Eddie and Dave tried

to break up a fight that spilled out into the street. And I try to break Dave up from breaking up the fight. Yeah, that was, you did the right thing. I did the dumb thing. I didn't want, I didn't want you catching a haymaker from someone who thought you were at the wrong click. Well, that's facts. That's facts, though. Here's why. It was three older guys that seemed like they looked like deep-eddy regulars versus a car full of what looked like- 24-year-olds.

Just graduated frat dudes. Yeah. And they were saying some really horrible things to these guys. Using words that you don't use. He also called him four eyes because the guy had glasses on. Also spit in his face. I hadn't heard four eyes. Did he really?

Yep. Hold on. The young men spit in the old men's face? Yeah. Yeah. I get why a fight would have broken out. If you spit in someone's face, that's automatic fight, right? It should have been.

You're begging to get punched in the face. No, but this was towards the end. This was like at the very end but also those guys when we say old guys they were our age maybe a little i pulled old guy away i said dude it's not that's what i kept that's what i kept trying to do and then and you know what what for some reason in my head i see why that's a really dumb joke okay for some reason like i think of these videos i always see videos on instagram reels i get sort of like street fights and dudes get knocked out and they fall and hit their head and like very dangerous that's you can die from that happened to a guy from i'm glad the

fight didn't happen i know and i didn't want you to be the reason and you're right you're right it was very dumb i shouldn't have been in there. I was like that ref. There was no punches thrown. Dave got in the mix to physically separate people. And I grabbed Dave's arm. I was like, dude, Dave, get out of here, man. To be fair, did you hit him with that long cane? Get him off the stage?

Yeah. Nobody in that group on either side was talking about really doing anything. Because the guy got his face spit on and didn't do anything. Well, the old guy, he like slapped his arms to like, it signify like I'm ready. He was like, Oh hell yeah. I was like,

Oh, that's tight. Just make it. You can't be held liable for the actions that you do right before you might throw down for a fight because you, you don't know how you're acting at that point. Blood's just coursing through your veins. Then we went inside the bar and the largest man I'd ever seen in my life

was, he asked me to guess his weight and I missed it by 90 pounds because he weighed 435 pounds. He also had calves that were, he was different. He had calves

that were as big as my torso. I'm not even kidding. They were this big, his calves. Just an unbelievably large man. I think I converted him. But he wasn't sloppy large. He was just big.

I think I converted him to a backer. Sloppy large. I did my best. You i did my i mean like they're sloppy big and then there's like put together big this guy this guy this guy came out of the womb an absolute wrecking ball yeah he's like no i'm just a big dude came out like a wrecking ball yeah so when you say that you're not a music guy and then you follow it up with that kind of thing. Saturday morning, saw Parks' team take another L, unfortunately. All right. If that had to start tomorrow, I feel like Parks' team not winning games would be a 15-seed.

Oh, my God. They're not good. I'd have to vote it down. They're not good. And Parks, he's so competitive. He gets so put off by it. He's like, oh, my God. Do his teammates suck?

Do I need to come by? Do I need to come teach him a few little maneuvers he had a he had a sick little uh what maneuver he had a sick little dribble right in front of me he juked him some dude it was kind of dope i feel like i and this is this is completely wrong um but i feel like if you teach one kid how to get really good at that age like they can just win every game you just need one kid that knows how to maneuver the situation they're stacking l's at this point it's like if you can figure out how to just get around the other kids and just like like whatever because it's just a flock of children yeah i'll wrap it up the rest of the weekend i didn't really do much oh we went to

the sorry the um the uh weiner baby shower of course which is a great time lovely place great people good time would you like to tell the people at home how you greeted the person that opened the door for you? I knocked on the door. Micah's dad answers, and without even hesitating, I said, good to see you, Mr. Wiener. Oh, my God. I feel so bad about it.

It was a total accident. Dude, Steve? He goes, good to see you. Credit to Dylan. Dylan walked immediately up to me and just hung his head. And he was like, I just made a mistake. No, I didn't. No, I wanted to just step over it. I felt really bad about it.

I call him Steve. You were AI. And then he was on the ground. And you were just stepping over it. I didn't want to make it a thing. So I was like, hopefully he didn't. But I said it loudly and clearly. He was getting a fit off at that thing.

He always does, dude. Mike's dad is the drippiest dude in Austin. I really feel bad about it. Maybe I should circle back next time I see him. Dylan, that guy's got about 70 years of being called wiener under his belt. I think he's going to be just fine. I met the original Mickey Weens, by the way. That was great.

That was cool. I didn't know we had that in store for us. Sunday, family day, got together with the crew, and we uh grilled burgers and uh had a couple ultra rights and just hung out nice my dad still drinks bud light by the way i'm proud of him i had a bud light saturday i'm proud of my dad shout out to the listeners that we uh we commandeered their table and they yeah allowed us to have bud lights which i drank quite quite uh have Bud Lights, which I drink quite, quite.

I can't get behind a beer that doesn't have a funnel that shoots beer down your throat in the bottle. It's just something I can't do. I tried to fashion one, but it didn't work. You try to carve out a vortex long neck? Yeah. Well, I brought my welding kit. Yeah. I'm thinking about taking up glass blowing and just remaking some of these bottles when I get them.

That's a good idea. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. What about you, man? Our Fridays were the same. I played a shamble. Oh, except for the golf, yeah. I played a shamble.

I don't like to name drop. UT Golf Club, Steiner Ranch. You went up to Tennessee before you went to Ole Miss for the game and the concert. It was a big, big weekend for me. You're so SEC. I'm crazy like that. You ever done a shamble? You familiar with this format?

Yeah. I'm constantly in shambles. I know. I'm in gobbing all the time. I did not even take out my BJs. I just do reverse scrambles all the time yeah i got that sounds awful it is i don't like that at all i got postmates and i just ate it in bed and left the container there until friday tell me about your girlfriend

you really want to know about my girlfriend kind of yeah it's fun shout out to blaine for having me um i will say someone not that we did not know but someone i was introduced to um he told me i looked familiar he was an older guy and he was like yeah have we met and I was like I don't know I don't think so really didn't think we met and I was like

and Blaine was like oh he gets confused for Vladimir Putin sometimes and I was like yeah that was before the mustache and this person said I'd trade him for our president right now. Hell yeah, brother. I was like, well, we're doing that. Okay.

Hell yeah, brother. Okay. Then I slowly put the Bud Light that was in my right hand behind my back and poured it out. I was like, uh-oh. So he just saw liquid pouring from behind you under the ground are you are you leaking sir yeah i'm pp'ing my pants right now you have a ton of liquid coming out of your butt yeah it's not great i shouldn't be here i should be at home sick um a lot of fun a lot of fun great weather day great golf day went from there went home show, said hi to the family. It was a big, big day for me.

Then we went to carve, joined Dylan. Carve. We did the carve board. Is that what it was called? It was substantial. It was so much meat that we didn't finish it all. It's a seafood tower of meat. Got to give a shout out to the

waitress as she she didn't ask for the leftovers she did but she did hint that like hey if you guys aren't gonna eat that and like we were gonna go to a deep eddy so it's like well we can't be walking around deep eddy with with meat i couldn't tell how uh sincere she was when she said that so i i said did you do you really want us to leave you some she goes yes i do so it's quality meat to be fair yeah some. Some prime rib. She got about probably $90 worth of meat from Carve. And that's why you're like, I don't feel bad not tipping her. That was a thing.

Dave, I tipped her, dog. He did the negative tip thing. She loved us. You had a stack of $1 bills, and each time you just take one off. She did a great job. Good waitress. I didn't realize they shut down at 10 and like when they shut down at 10 it's like they're sweeping around you know stuff

our resi was 8 30 so it was kind of we're kind of up against it yeah i didn't realize it was like that no do i love nothing i like they didn't do this to us so i'll give them credit for that but i love going to restaurants and i'm telling you how fast you have to get out right when you sit down yeah no better feeling um there's another group with a reservation in 45 minutes so um yeah my toxic trait is that if someone tells me that at a restaurant i usually intentionally try to take longer because it makes me angry i like that and i'm a bad person oh yeah you're fine thank you you. Saturday, Saturday was tough. Hey,

we saw Killshot Friday night. He didn't do a sidewalk slammer, but we can get past that. Shout out to Killshot. Shout out to all the listeners that were there. I didn't realize

that was such a listener hangout. Deep Eddie's still kind of a scene. I thought it'd kind of move to Don's Depot, that crowd. That crowd's still holding it down at Deep Eddie.

A ton of listeners there. When I was leaving, some dude stopped me for a pic, not to brag, but he did. It was kind of moved to Don's Depot, that crowd. That crowd's still holding it down at deep end. A ton of listeners there. When I was leaving, some dude stopped me for a pic. Not to brag, but he did. It was kind of cool. Really? Yeah. Huh. I guess I walked right by.

He didn't want a pic with me. Maybe he confused me with Scott Disick. Yeah, you're not everyone's favorite, Dave. Fuck. I hate that. Saturday, saw you guys at the Weiner's. Talked to his dad. His name is Mr is mr whiner steve as i call him we're kind of on a first name base i feel like i need to call him just like i got his number

do you want to call him no okay yesterday um yesterday was semi-productive did a whole foods run got some stuff for some uh high protein oatmeal that I looked up for the mornings little egg whites little oatmeal some mashed banana cinnamon real easy to make three minutes in the microwave your Gucci you mashed that mashed banana button I did this morning it's quite good um got a little pump in watch the stars even it up with the boys just a good time love a 530 puck drop. Gives you enough time to decompress after a playoff hockey. Well, you know what it's like.

It's crazy, man. Is decompress, is it the opposite of stretching your D? You're talking about compressing your penis. You just push it in? We've all done it. I guess if it's cold enough. Everyone's done it. When you cold punch.

Yeah. I think you shoot something. You're decompressing. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. How about you? We got there.

It was a low-key weekend for your boy outside of Friday, which was just an absolute movie. Saturday, went to Mickey Bang Bang's house, had a couple unexpectedly chill beers. Shout out to Twisted X Brewery. Twisted X Lager. Twisted X is on a heater with their beers and their labels. Like, their cans were dope.

Was not expecting that from them. Dope labels. Like, I know they say don't judge a book by its cover, but I absolutely will judge a beer by its label. Wow. That's beautiful. That's the thing about Will. I'm not afraid.

I went home. My plan is to watch the Austin FC game, and I've got bad news for everybody. We're not good anymore. Austin's professional sports team is no longer any good. They took a step back this year. Yeah, yeah. We're losing to all the worst teams in the league.

We're kind of a punching bag at this point. The game was at 9.30 at night. It's just, it was not a good situation for your boy. You guys familiar with the holiday record store day? Yes. I'm new to this. It was on Saturday. And I didn't know anything about it, David.

And so what I decided to do was I decided to learn something about it. And what I learned is that there's a lot of special releases that come out around Record Store Day. Did you buy a Freebird special release? I didn't get Freebird. Fuck. I didn't get Freebird. I did go check out some stuff, and I was kind of impressed. It was kind of cool seeing all these people get really excited about it.

It kind of made me excited about it. So I bought some stuff. Record guy. I know, record guy. Yeah, it was good. It was good. And so, yeah, I did that. And then I'm having an issue with

one of my speakers so i decided to listen to the record i bought uh yesterday for a long time what are you gonna do about that speaker sending it back and they're sending me a new one because they're a good company and i trust them i don't think it's anyone's fault the speaker broke you just get like a 15 inch uh rockford Fosgate or something. Think about that. Oh, dude, I've got a legacy amp you can have. Really, dude? I'm so used to it. Really? So his dad was also an amp?

That's good. That's good. It's a frat joke about speakers. That's the only reason Dave got a bid. He's a leg. Yeah. Still nuts. Use a leg.

Yeah. Still nice. Yesterday, Sally made what I think has been one of her best dishes of the year. You ready for this? Mm-hmm. A little chilly out. I know you noticed that. And so what we did was we made a little broccoli cheddar soup. Oh, okay.

Hit absolutely diffy. And then I went to bed early after watching a little Sucks session. Why did it hit diffy? Because it was 55 degrees out, David. Okay. Broccoli cheddar soup hits diffy when it's 55 degrees out. You got to stop saying diffy though, man. Why?

What's a diffy? How many saying Diffie though, man. Why? What's the Diffie? How many syllables in different? Three, technically, but people say it as if it were two. Different. Different is how people say it, but it's different. Let's make a pledge right now. Let's all take a pledge that we will, next time we say different,

we will all emphasize all three syllables because all three deserve their proper time. I will not take that pledge. Why? Because I'm,'m just gonna do it because you're a bitch i was gonna do a haze a pledge i'm not taking that pledge because i'm diffy i'll take a pledge to the fucking basement and haze the shit out of them no you won't dude these guys are so fucked oh the pledges two of them didn't even show up to study hall. Oh. Oh, they're dumb.

Oh, does your cheek hurt because we pushed your face against a cardboard when it came out? Cardboard? You're all burned? Oh, wow. All right, which one of you guys called my dad Mr. Wiener? Imagine the shit Micah took as a pledge because it was last name that sucks he wasn't a frat right yeah i think he was i think he was pledged class president just so he knew that like none of the like wait he's a bro he's a brother didn't he wow wow dude brother for life

as was his dad dude mr wiener so he was a leg. Mr. Weiner. Is there any way, like, you know how, like, people get, like, I'm sure, like, Taylor Swift has, like, a degree from NYU, like, an honorary one. Like, is there any way that I can get retroactively, like, initiated into, like, y'all's fraternity so I can be brothers for life with you two? We'll do it. Yeah. I want to be your brother for life. Like, could you guys just make this happen? Yeah, sure.

This has nothing to do with anything. He actually just, he did pledge, but I always wonder what it was like. So Eli Manning was a Sigma Nu at Ole Miss. And like, I knew a couple of guys who like went through like after him. And they said they would be up at the house and he would be there watching like film. I was like, what does that, what does pledge look like for your, your, you know, five-star, four-star commit? You don't touch the guy. You don't touch the guy. You don't touch the guy, right?

With the most famous family name, even at that time. He skipped Pledge lineup. Are they just kind of like, ah. Yeah, he doesn't need to worry. What are you going to do, drop me if I don't show up? Yeah. You're not going to drop me. Yeah, it turns out Peyton Manning's missing this week's game because.

He's in yesterday. Yeah. He got a soldering iron to his butthole last night oh god what's wrong with you dude i'm different you're sadistic yeah this guy is uh different you guys see tucker carlson is out at fox really yeah why i think it has to do with that should we get him that very large settlement we should get him that'd be a good get for us he's got a big social follow we could monetize that i don't know man he had glenn greenwald on one too many times for their liking i don't know

if he if we're on the same wave with with tucker maybe we could reform maybe maybe we could get him to scale back some takes who's watching what if we put him in charge of something that could like be a pivot for him like a creative pivot maybe we could put him in charge of like the stream room or something like we could bring that back maybe he could be the host of Hunkering Down yeah that thing's just begging for a host

just sitting there maybe like a fungus maybe he could be our in-house chef oh I thought you were about to do a Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Maybe... Like a fungus. Maybe he could be our in-house chef. Oh. I thought you were about to do a... He's doing it. Oh, okay.

I think it's time for a little succession talk. Why are you saying it like that? Yeah, your emphasis is a little iffy there. It's a horny emphasis you're doing there. I truly don't even know what you guys are talking about. You've been a little horny the last week. I got to tell you. I don't mean to call you out publicly, but we do a podcast, and I'm calling you out.

That's a big compliment from the guy in the horny chair. You girl over for a suck session? Oh, that's what you guys were alluding to when I said succession, and we're going to recap it? I just thought we were talking about the show from last night. I apologize to everyone who just heard me say that. I'm not like that. Season four, episode five. it's called Kill List. Love the episode.

I think it was one of the more fun episodes of the year. Love the change of scenery. The setting was fun. I love Succession, one of my favorite shows. One thing that they don't do enough of is change settings for me. They need to change settings pretty much every single episode for me to keep me happy.

Sometimes it's in a $63 million apartment. In Manhattan? In Manhattan. I just get bummed sometimes when you're 45 minutes into an episode of Succession and they've been sitting in the same room the entire time. And you're like, you know, I respect how good of a job you're doing acting to where it really doesn't matter that you're in the same room. But sometimes I just want to see baller locations.

So this one was in Norway. Ever been? I have not been in Norway. Wonder where they filmed it. Norway. Yeah. I think Norway. I don't know.

It could have been, uh, Oregon. Yeah. It looked Pacific Northwest to me too. It was very beautiful. That's why it was pretty dope little setup. Um,

I don't know what you call the place. It was like a retreat. Sure. And at the top of the – there's a mountain. And at the top of it was some like observatory lookout thing almost. It was just a building. And every time they talked business, they would take the gondola up to talk business. And then they'd come down and like talk it out with the other people. And then they'd go back up to talk more business on the gondola. You ever talk business on a gondola up to talk business and then come down and like talk to talk it out with the other people and then go back up to talk more business on the gondola you ever talk business

on a gondola i don't think i have i've i've taken many gondolas however yeah i did that one time when i went skiing with y'all yeah yeah you would close your eyes that one time we did it because you were scared when it gets when it gets real high yeah i get i get a little scared i don't close my eyes but i do heights i don't do heights buddy you hear me yeah don't you think you're gonna pee yourself or something no that's when i get too high got it not the same thing off that stick do you really so you are that scared of heights on like so you're on a gondola you're like uh-oh um it it depends how high it is off the ground that you know so skydiving's out of the question oh my god Oh, my God.

I am terrified of heights. I can't even watch a video of someone like up on a tall building. So no skydiving. What about Rocky Mountain climbing? It's way harder to look at videos of those dudes that are like thrill seekers that are on the edge of like skyscrapers in Dubai doing parkour stuff. It's way harder for me to watch that than it is for someone to be in a plane jumping out of the plane.

It's almost like so high that I have no concept totally agree i would i would skydive there's this video of some dude who's changing the the light bulb on the top of a tower that's like thousand feet tall and he climbs all the way up and every every time he takes a step he like reclips himself in it's terrifying do they not know that they have light bulbs that can last forever thomas edison figured that out fucking question well uh can i give a special nod i'm gonna give a very special nod to kieran colkin i thought his performance last night especially during the time when he tried to undress uh what's his face uh you know i thought he did an absolutely incredible job of seeming so genuine in that moment that i was like dude that was that's the best he's ever been on this show do you think do you think he was

genuinely tearing into him or i think that was all that was the real i don't think a real roman that's the real roman yeah i think that was like that's not strategy he finally broke and was just like all right the facade of all the smart assness all that this is a i'm fucking tired of this guy and everything he said seemed very legitimate couldn Couldn't wait a few fucking days, huh? Yeah. That would be enough for me not to want to work with somebody at all. Yeah, you insist that we fly to Norway the day after our father's funeral or whatever. If my dad died and I was going to get the company

and I was working on a merger with somebody else or whatever you want to call it, I'd be like, you're flying here now. You want to buy my company? You want me to accept your offer you can fly here and you can fucking yeah figure that out before they flew out they still were in a they weren't in the power position i don't think i think matson was still in the power position because he's the one writing the check and he was they were wondering if he was going to want to back out the deal and all that so it's understandable that well they would be the ones to fly out okay dylan siding with madison noted i'm just saying well they had the madison had the leverage bro yeah

that's what i'm saying dylan madison go go atn getting folded in a lot of ladies on the tl apparently madison gals the scars guard guy very hot he's he's a tall hot man who sends his ex-girlfriend pints of blood what i i honestly had to run that back because i was like whoa did i miss dude that i think that was a moment where they were they were spitballing during the the filming of it and then he just said that and they're like okay keep going with that yeah i'd like to think that shiv and tom's little back and forth was uh i i don't know if it was improv, but it just seemed like it could have been a good scene for like outtakes and stuff.

It was, that was an excellent dialogue scene. Do we want them back together? No, she, I think she kind of wants it to, she asked him on a date or to dinner. Well, yeah, if you're pregnant with his kid, like I would assume there's part of you that's gonna be like, well, she saved him. I feel like she's kind of you that's going to be like, well, she saved him.

I feel like she's kind of, like, more attracted to him now. Are we sure she's still pregnant? Yeah. I think so. Okay. She was drinking, and she almost did cocaine. She took one sip on screen that we saw. One sip.

Okay. And she did not do any cocaine. She put it away immediately. Do you think that picture that Madsen asked the ship to take on the plane of – She's an idiot. Kindle and Roman's reactions will come back to bite anyone in the ass at some point. 100%. Why were you communicating with Madsen while we were in shambles over – While we were negotiating.

Yeah, like over all this. And you're taking photos of us and sending them to the guy that we're negotiating against like fuck you oh it's gonna come out that she was she orchestrated helped orchestrate that yeah the the photo part was a it's a perfect it's a perfect way to expose her for this but she also like if you listen to the uh rumored kill list that they read out like those are all people like she saved she saved the women she saved jerry and uh carolina the brunette uh she saved tom so it's like oh okay she's working what did she do to save tom i don't remember her talking to mattson about him that's what yeah it's implied. It is?

Yeah. It's the implication. Because of the implication. Oh, okay. I didn't get that either, to be honest. I figured I missed something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know that she went to bat for Carolina, and I guess you mentioned Jerry, too.

Jerry could be helpful in a situation, a blood giving situation what you've done here okay you ever sent your ex some blood i haven't but that's a move i might try in the half a liter actually it was the number right brick a half liter brick of blood is what he said i didn't i sent an ear one time really yeah i was kind of going through a phase i was painting a lot so that's a Van Gogh reference. Wasn't your commenter named Vincent Van Bro? Fuck you, Dorn. Uh-huh.

Yeah. Weird Kendall episode. He like weirdly didn't, I mean, he had it and he didn't have it. And then he kind of bricked it. He looked on, he looked shook. The whole, everything about it shook him. We're not getting Pete Kendall this season like I thought we would. I thought he was going to alpha that meeting and he did not.

We've said this before though. I feel like I've been in this spot before being like, I want more from Kendall. And then suddenly Kendall turns it on to finish out the season. So I got to be a little light on this. Do we have any idea how many shares are dispersed between all these characters when they say when they when they get the the price bumped up five bucks i want to know how much that affects their like actual payout amount an absolute fuck ton or ass ton well thank you an ass ton of shares yeah

that's what we try to do every day watch media share ass no no just get an ass ton of shares yeah oh right on the yeah yeah that's true hey which one who's gonna did you guys decide which one of you is gonna run the uh washed babes account that we're gonna do it's randy right volunteered randy came in this morning like guys wash you're gonna love this would wash babes even be hot or they like they used to be hot and now they're just like okay she looks okay you know because washed i don't know you're gonna have to figure that out for when you start that's a funny concept unfortunately i don't think it would get a lot of follows because you know you could just go follow like smoke shows or something

what if it's like babes standing in front of car washes washed rocket ships okay i'm listening so that would just be a bunch of really clean looking rocket ships be sick how about elon huh we just hype up washed rockets shutterstock babe of the day that was good that was good that was funny that was good it was really under underappreciated yeah are you guys bummed that elon's ship or whatever exploded? No, I don't care. His rocket. No one was on it, so I don't care. Honestly, if you're going to take away our check marks,

you kind of deserve to have something blow up that day. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Can I... Justice. Can I just, as an aside, give a tip of the cap to Elon? Because it is kind of hilarious to give people who did not ask for or pay for Twitter Blue check marks so it looks like they did. And he knew it was going to come out, but it was still pretty funny. We're like people who like obviously didn't like him. Who did he give it to?

Stephen King was one. LeBron. LeBron. Oh. Yeah, he got roasted there are quite a few like notable public figures uh the drill account i'm not i'm not giving any credit i'm not giving any credit to his nerd humor as far as elon humor goes that's one of the better bits and he probably wasn't even doing it to be funny it just to me was funny because it is if you think that's kind of funny it's like this guy paid for it there's a theory that he like he gave it to people so us like commenters will look at like oh if he's gonna pay for it maybe i should too nothing could nothing could sway me at this point no i'm out

like i know i put i put up the poll i'm the one it's me hi i'm the pollster it's me uh i put it up on circling back pod on twitter please go follow uh and i was landslide voted most likely to pay for twitter blue i i actually think it's dylan who's most likely to pay for twitter blue if i had to vote in that poll nah there's absolutely no way i ever vote or ever do it for twitter i'm not doing it not doing it stop asking i might do it as a bit what if you just publicly hate elon and then he just does it for you then you don't have to actually pay i genuinely find the the people who tweet 40 times a day about elon sucking like more annoying than Elon on Twitter. Because I don't see his tweets anymore.

Do I unfollow him? If you're one of those annoying people, just go complain about it on your podcast instead of tweeting about it like I do. That's the easy way out. I don't follow. That's probably why I don't see his tweets anymore. Dude, why don't you super subscribe to him?

That's how you get exclusive memes. Yeah, that'd be cool. You can get the exclusive access to his exclusive memes. Has he tweeted about the cow mutilations in Madisonville, Texas yet? We're done with the succession? I don't have anything more on it. I thought it was a really good episode. I thought Cousin Greg trying to make the quad squad happen, incredible.

Okay, so he's pretty much got one like every other episode. If it's not the Disgusting Brothers, it's the quad squad. He had season two. They know, like, okay. Greg's the most likable person on the show. Greg had no reason going on that trip, but you can't not include Greg because he's just a great character. I think about that a lot with him.

Is he really worthy of being a nobody? In the company, he's pretty much a nobody. He's Tom's, he's right under Tom, or he's Tom's number two. He's Tom's fall guy. Tom didn't even have to go on that trip. Lombs games? Like, he didn't, like, he wasn't a part of the discussion. He wasn't a part of the negotiation.

He was just there. So why would Greg, like, you know what I mean? Like, he's so good of a character. He's got to be there. When Tom sat down at the table with Mastin and the other his employees the other swedes um those swedes are the whoever those guys sucked are you swedish i think they all are oh that's a swedish i meet the ball anyway what are you gonna say it was very intimidating yeah and he he completely like

he bricked it he has a he they asked him a question that if I were asked a question I would have no idea what to say is France gonna make it like how do you answer that question it was very odd I think they're gonna make it yeah that, probably. That's just me. That's just me. I don't know. I think there's other countries you should be worrying about a little bit more. But again, that's just me. Did you guys look up what they said

when they were speaking in a foreign language? No, did you? I saw someone post a screenshot of the subtitles, and it essentially just said like, have we gone into business with an incestuous family? Whatever.

Okay. Well, it's a big dick move from Madsen to be like, really, all of you are going to come negotiate with me and not just, like, you know, one or two of you. It's just me. Did you catch when he said he did psilocybin in the morning sometimes? Yeah. Psilocybin with breakfast?

Yes. Such a tech CEO move. Gotta love it. Dude, he's frat. Let's talk about this cow mutilation story out of Madisonville, Texas. Not what you want.

I'm freaked out, man. Six cows found dead and mutilated along a state highway in East Central Texas, Madisonville, down around, oh, I don't know,

east of College Station Way. College Station Way. Had their tongues completely removed. It's prompted an investigation by a county sheriff's office, as it should. That's not the only thing that was done to the cows, Dave. The cow's tongue was removed with, weirdly, no blood spill and a straight clean cut with apparent precision what else was uh done to these dylan a circular cut was made removing the anus and the external genitalia that's where i draw the line a circular cut removing the anus and the external

genitalia no signs of struggle no blood spill no footprints or tire tracks in the area around any of the cows these are from six different herds by the way it wasn't like all from the same ranch really yep what the fuck so but there's been other ones and other places when i first started googling cow mutilation like the first thing to come up was certainly not texas oregon yeah many happened in other places it's creepy the creepiest thing about it is the um and you always this is what people emphasize and this is why they think it's paranormal is the precision that is done uh to remove whatever it is like it's it's clean it's almost like it was a laser like you're saying this they're precision pros freaking laser beams yeah we'll rate the rangefinder reference okay

it's a joke i'm a golf guy no laying up fans shout out to bush now and precision pro no i'm actually a i'm a pinned guy somebody just dropped the bag it's called pinned we talking aliens here davey you did oh shit i didn't even know we had this in play yeah oh yeah buddy it's an alien laser beams i mean it's like they're experimenting on these old fuckers big fuckers aren't cow tongues like can't you eat cow tongue yeah you can i never have probably never will but you can um i probably would i would eat it if prepared in front of me what do they do with the truck oh it was a liver king i wasn't delivered by the way could have been the liver king he lives in houston you see the picture of the liver king

next to the normal size people yeah he's always been short he's five six he's always been short well i understand that he's always been short he didn't used to be tall i get that part but he's shockingly small how do you know he didn't shrink i don't yeah he's like all natural for like 60 days is that right that's what he's been saying i don't know i unfollowed him finally honestly so many other so many people that i knew unfollowed him that i was like oh i'm like the only person like left besides like people in our group chat that's dedicated to him dave shout out to uh we don't talk about him anymore in there though we just talk about weather pretty much it's a good group chat um yeah this is a very very strange um i don't really know if you if it was somewhat like okay you can pretty much rule out um predator because no sign of struggle and like if it was like a wolf or something or a mountain lion

you know those are those are you know it when you see they they're eaten they don't just rip the tongue out cleanly yeah they don't't precisely cut out their buttholes either. Can I read something? The latest cases were called livestock mutilations, included ones in the 1970s that instilled fear among ranchers across the country. At least 11 states, including California, Montana, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, reported finding dead livestock with their sex organs and tongues missing, the New York Times reported in 1975.

At the time, nearly 200 cows as well as buffalo, a horse, and a goat were reported to have been found with parts of their carcasses removed. The unexplained discoveries inspired a groundswell of theories with some blaming the killings on satanic cultists who were said to use the organs for sacrifices while others attributed mutilations to UFOs. Can I take another aside real quick? Speaking of cults, those can i um take another aside real quick speaking of colts are you guys watching yellow jackets season two no did you watch season one no okay we are on spoiler alert as well because to be honest dave i've uh started it okay let me just say the trailer didn't sell i'm in season two

now and it's just it's it's it's pretty wild it's off the rails it's good though right like am i making a mistake by going down this path i am only one episode i know you should watch season season one was good i will say some of the novelties weren't off for season two but season one is worth finishing out weren't you more you're more into that show uh plaid jackets yes it's really good like there was an episode that i almost dilloned meaning i almost stopped watching oh because of one episode i picked back up last though though y'all should be proud of me i'm not proud of you okay not proud did you get bullied into that or no i really enjoyed the show until the bottle one.

Anyway, these cows, cattle, more than one, no sign of struggle. They were already dead when the tongue was cut out. How are they already dead? Do they say? We don't know. They're going to have to test them. We don't know. So Madisonville is pretty close to College Station.

You think it was some Aggies? I don't know how close it actually is. It's probably Aggies. Do we think it could have been any wedges? Could have been some Aggie wedges. Right on 45. This is a weird story. I don't like it. there's a bucky's right there i i don't know what this says about me but like if i hear about tongues getting cut out of cows i need it to be

messy not precision i think like one of the low-key weirdest parts of the story is that it came from from several different places and not all from the same ranch yeah you know what i mean like that's weird yeah i never i didn't i didn't go straight to aliens when i first heard about this story but like now my brain can't go anywhere else dude they were sucked up with the laser beams we don't know if they did that that's how that's how aliens take creatures from earth dave looks like madisonville's uh down near uh down around centerville way oh yeah oh yeah brother right near cottonwood oh right right by connor down around Centerville way. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, brother. Right near Cottonwood.

Oh, right by Connor. Out of Connor way? You ever been out to Elwood? How have I? Where's... Oh, yeah. Yeah, this is too close for comfort, even though it's, you know,

a couple hundred miles from us, or 150 miles. I think we should go check it out. Probably not. I'm out on that. Let's get boots on the ground of the dave go break it up do i have to wear boots can i wear my skate shoes out there i'll wear my extremely white shoes your washable rothies previous uh that would be a really good segue would be unfortunately that's not the case

can I just say that regarding the aliens that some of the previous previous incidents in the 70s the ranchers spotted unidentified flying objects

You guys familiar with Erewhon? No. Leader of Turkey. No. Something else. Erewhon's a grocery store. Okay. In Los Angeles.

Rumors are swirling. I don't know if these rumors have been confirmed or not, but the store is going to move to New York. It's become somewhat of a famous little hotspot, Dylan. Okay. Very popular place to go get stuff that you would not find at a regular grocery store. They're not a regular grocery store. They're a cool grocery store. Okay.

It's kind of like if you took Whole Foods and you were like, hey, how can we make this even more ridiculous? What can we do to do that? What can we do to make sure the salads are all like 25 a piece what can we do to ensure that these smoothies are a million dollars a piece a million wow yeah one million dollars exactly move to austin and so a recent article was written and i read the headline i thought to myself like what's going on here? It's called Meet the People Working Three Jobs to Afford Air One. Are you willing to work three jobs to go to the yuppie scum supermarket in your area?

I'm not. If one job can't get the job done, I'm probably going to go somewhere else. It's facts. What is so special? I mean, it sounds like it's very high quality, but is it something that i could not otherwise get at whole foods uh heb do you mean like the keto brownie that's literally five bites for ten dollars day for a package of three peanut butter filled dates for eight dollars wow ten dollars for a brownie let me read you some things from this article okay i'm gonna omit one person from this article because i don't think that she should have been included in the first place.

Wow. I think she was wronged by this. I think this article was created for clicks. And I think that the reason that one of the people in this article was going to Erewhon and working more jobs was because they actually were prioritizing their health and not just being a little insufferable. Okay. Okay. Okay. You can go read the article yourself if you want to go do that. It's on the cut. Okay. I'm going to read you a quick passage. Are you ready for this first passage I'm going to read you?

Spencer, 23, makes roughly $40,000 annually as a freelance voiceover artist, content creator for a hummus company, and a college essay tutor. Dylan. Hummus company, dude. We can say hummus without being about it. No, you can't. No, dude. It's your Super Bowl snack of choice. You probably double-tapped on one of these posts from our friend Spencer.

Just saying. I do enjoy hummus. I do enjoy hummus. It says, and this forces her to share a carpeted, un-air-conditioned apartment in Brentwood with a roommate. I'm not sure why carpet has to take a stray there. It seems unnecessary. Carpet's coming back.

She is not willing to give up her one luxury arowan each week she spends between 50 and 75 dollars though sometimes she admits as much as 200 at the cult high-end health food store in los angeles which has also become a social scene attracting tiktok wellness influencers and health nuts her favorite items include french squirrels bizus what is that do you guys know what that is b-i-s-o-u-s i don't know what that is it's a nutritious version of puppy chow for nine dollars the keto brownie that is literally five bites for ten dollars and a package of three peanut butter filled dates for eight dollars that she acknowledges could probably be diy'd for less money quote i've made jokes

about it no matter what it It'll always be in my budget even though I'm a starving artist. It's become my identity. Those sound bomb. I just had to put that out there. Are you willing to say that these $8 peanut butter filled dates, would you like them enough to make them part of your identity? No, but I would like to purchase them exactly one time to try them and then probably never get them again. Okay, what about a six-pack of beer that is 100% woke free? I'm scanning their menu right now, Dave, and I'm not seeing Ultra right there right now. Really? Not at Erdogan?

Yeah. Not at the place that believes that nutrition is the key to a radiant lifestyle? That's facts. That's facts. I mean, here's the thing. $75 a week on groceries doesn't sound so good. I mean, actually, like, yeah. She clearly doesn't have a kid or anything to worry about. Different, but still.

Let me read something else for you, okay? Okay. They went to the store with Spencer, our friend. They said it's an uncharacteristic... I can't say the word. Characteristic. Thank you, Lee. Lee.

Characteristically. Uncharacteristic. I can't say the word. Characteristic. Thank you, Lee. Lee. Characteristically. Uncharacteristically. Light Erewhon trip for Spencer. Also an aspiring wellness content creator who has come to collect her smoothie as a past yoga reward. Post yoga reward, I'm sorry. She weaves through the narrow aisle jam-packed with colorful, if not somewhat perplexing items, like a $40 Neptune Blue Sea Moss Gel and $11 Pea Flower and Turmeric Bread. She leads me to the produce section

and points to a 16-ounce container of crimson strawberries, which cost $24. This is Whole Foods, like, on steroids. This is on, like, $12,000 worth of Liver King HGH. This is very optimized Whole Foods. Here's what she says about this $24 thing. This is probably my favorite quote from the entire thing. $24 what again?

Strawberries. Yes, $24 strawberries. I would never buy that, she insists. Actually, I used to buy cut fruits sometimes. That was when I was dating my ex-boyfriend, and he would buy salmon for his dog here. You're buying salmon for your dog at Erewhon? Oh, my God. Who are these people? How waspy can you be if you're just buying salmon for your dog at arowan oh my god man who are these people how waspy can you be if you're just buying salmon for your dog at arowan people are scum is it this is where is

this located strictly new york no la la la but going to new york allegedly allegedly it'd probably be a good move for them it'd probably be a good move for them once austin's gonna get an arowan and i'm gonna that's when i'm moving that's my it's definitely gonna happen it's definitely gonna happen i'm moving out around madison bill way simple life there's some more in this column which i highly recommend people reading uh the other person they talk about uh someone who lives with her parents and works part-time jobs in marketing at a law firm and it's a nanny and it says that uh she makes fifty thousand dollars a year nothing wrong with that and she says i love to take air one when i'm flying because i freaking fly economy i'm not a

private i'm not private jetting anywhere she says just to be in a comfortable sweatsuit or lulu fit and then have air one i feel like i'm worth a billion dollars okay these people feel like they're not real people there was a point when i was reading this where i scrolled up just to make sure it wasn't fiction that i was confusing because i i don't understand why people would willingly open themselves up to a column like this where you just sound terrible but then i'm like i do this every day from a for a job on a podcast there's a name attached to it right like they're not this they're not you know anonymous uh you mean luba kaplanskaya okay yeah i don't know you know i can't i i can relate in some ways i've been so hungover before i fly that

i i was like you know what i need a fiji water this uh ozark is not gonna do it yeah imagine going into hudson news and being like everything here is not expensive enough. I need to go to Erewhon. Yeah, that $14 Chex Mix in the corner, I need more. Oh my God. I need to really financially struggle for the rest of the week. This person also notes that she would get reimbursed for things that she purchased

with the kids during her nannying, but she was told to stop going to Erewhon because it was too expensive after a $16 smoothie experience. She needs to sit down with a financial advisor. I feel like this is just a nationwide... Maybe it's not nationwide. I know we live in a pretty bougie city at this point.

Yeah, we're the worst. It's a trend of just overspending on stuff that doesn't need to be expensive. Brett was telling us about the new restaurant that just opened close to him. They don't have a happy hour. It's just... People like to spend... It's a trend hour. It's just people like to spend.

It's like it's a trend to spend money on overpriced shit. We should send them a link to the Dave Ramsey show. Your parents ever listen to that growing up? My parents never did. Thank God. I'm not a big Dave Ramsey guy. Turns out if you go to a different grocery store that's less expensive, you can save money.

Something you should think about. Facts. I don't go to air one i don't thank you dave with whole foods either well to close things out they said back at the air one smoothie counter a muddy green concoction awaits spencer she gingerly takes a sip of her drink her face contorts in disgust that's literally heinous she says it's like a combination oh are they are they doing cow anus smoothies at air one you said heinous with the age sorry um she said it's like a combination oh are they are they doing cow anus smoothies at arowan you said heinous with the age sorry um she said it's like a combination of dirt water and grass on your shoes she offers me a sip it tastes like kale juice poured into a chalky mixture of vitamins and topped off with a few drops of peppermint oil quote knowing me i'm gonna go to my car make a

tiktok reviewing it she says as i prepare to drive off i see spencer stationed in her car retrying her smoothie for the camera she repeats the same process as before coughing and fanning her face not to be dramatic but this was horrible she reports to her followers at least she's able to admit that it tastes like shit credit to her for that i think i would absolutely thrive in an arowana for a little bit she she couldn't even get home before she made the tiktok immediately when you get in the car like first thing before we even start it like we gotta fire up the talk i hate i hate these people yeah i genuinely don't want to be around anymore this ruined it for me this is my last show

what's up guys i'm will and this is what i eat at arowan every day okay first things first i walk in and i say hi to the people that i know yeah then i go down the drink aisle and i buy a beverage yeah i hate tiktok i'm sorry china facts oh facts that's all i have on this that's that ruined my day thank you i wish i didn't know what everyone was they're gonna you're right we are gonna get one it's gonna go in on like a really nice part of congress avenue dallas will get one first and then we're right after dallas no maybe no i think we get one before dallas no offense dallas we're more trendy than dallas yeah i think austin i think austin is a it a – it makes more sense for Erewhon. You think they'll have one in Madisonville anytime soon?

No, I don't. Yeah. Maybe out Pecos way. Hmm. That's – You think Brett's going to open an Erewhon in Pecos? They're not going to get him. He's got the land.

Or Pecos. Four and a half acres? Yeah, you're right. Parking might be an issue. I shared something from the circling back Instagram story the other day if you guys were looking at it.

Saw that. It's an interesting opportunity. Yeah. We should start pitching Brett more opportunities like this. All right, lads. It's been fun. Hey, fun episode, guys.

Tomorrow, do you know, a game show podcast hosted by Randy Trimbaki, Doug Dimadome himself. Very excited for this. The rest of the week should be a fun week. Normal episode Wednesday. We've got voicemails Thursday.

Do we have a coffee Friday this week? I think we do. I think we have a special guest coffee Friday. Oh, yes, we do. I think we got a coffee Friday. Who is it? Don't worry about it. Okay.

We'll just have Brett do the eyes emoji on Twitter later. Okay. All right, guys. It's been fun. worry about it. Okay. We'll just have Brett do the eyes emoji on Twitter later. Okay. All right, guys. It's been fun. Bye-bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.

Bye. Bye. Bye.
