all right we're back Wednesday circling back podcast my name is Will DeFreeze to my right Dave Ruff good morning Will good morning dylan how's everybody looking good morning dave doing fantastic your skin it doesn't it just looks a little dull it's like dylan have you considered getting like a facial wow wow so weird you guys brought that up i actually have one scheduled for three o'clock today and i am so excited for it yeah i have questions yeah i mean that's why i'm here man when did you schedule this facial yesterday after my workout. It's at Lifetime, by the way.

They have a spa, the Life Spa. Okay. So I finished my workout, and I was like, I keep walking by. I'm like, you know what? I need to treat myself eventually. So I walked up. I said, look, I'm interested in getting a facial. Tell me about it.

And she laid the whole pitch on me. I said, when can I sign up? Do you know what this facial is going to entail? It's called a hydrafacial, which is they have like different, you know, variations of the facial. I think that means water facial. Yeah. They have this machine. Are they just going to power wash your face?

They have this machine. Firehose. Yeah. It uses water, but it sucks out like all the toxins and, you know, the bad stuff from your skin. And then like rejuvenates it and all this stuff. And she talked me into it. She goes, I get this one once every couple months. And pretty much she said it's fucking dope.

I bet you won't go live. It depends on the rapport I have with my facialist. What are they called? Your facialist. My facialist. If she's like, her name's april by the way you know it's a lady you know yes shouts to you april i haven't met her but i know that's her name okay hopefully she's like cool and like we have like a good rapport i'm like you know i'm gonna

get my fun but that's okay with you and i'll go live do you want to know exactly what it is because i've looked it up yeah per allure.com the set this is this This article is very aggressive, by the way. Like, it's kind of demeaning. Okay. They're woman-splaining facials to all of us. All right. It says, for the few remaining humans still unfamiliar with the hydrafacial, here's the deal. I'm out.

It's a medical-grade hydrodermabrasion device that carries out a patented three-part regimen, cleansing, exfoliating, and then infusing the skin with intensive serums. Yeah. What kind of serum is going to be infused in your skin? Do you know? I'm not sure of the serum. You should get creatine. I don't know if that's good for the skin, really.

Yeah, I don't know either. But she said, like, yeah, you leave, you'll notice, like, immediately your skin just kind of popping. So I'm looking forward to it. Do you have a date or something coming up? No, I have nothing coming up. You don't have anything to treat myself for. This is just you treating yourself. This is just a little self-care. I'm prioritizing myself right

now. You're like the facial king of Austin, Texas. What do you mean? That's what people are calling you. That's not true. Well, your tweet, by the way, I couldn't tell if you were being sincere or not when you tweeted that I have flawless skin or whatever it was. You should shave before you do this. No, I should not. I think you

definitely should. I'm not going to lose the beard just for a facial. It's a partial facial. Did you ask if you get a discount because you have less surface hair? I did not ask that. Well, was your tweet, was it sincere? Dude, you got good skin. I appreciate that. I don't think it's not great. Here's. I did not ask that. Was your tweet sincere? Dude, you got good skin. I appreciate that.

I don't think it's not great. Here's what I've learned about skin. Everyone thinks that they have worse skin than they have to the general public. Well, you see, I'm a pretty naturally oily person. Growing up, when I hit puberty, I got pimples pretty good, because it just came in

it came in and it was it wronged me when i was in my mid-20s we had a night that we were all going out and the goal of going out was like mingle chicks you know how it goes and uh i had a zit and i was freaking out about i was like this looks awful like if i was a girl i would not talk to me and my buddy he was like dude will no one's looking at this in a dark bar. There's no way that anyone will notice this. Yeah. And from that point on, I was like, you know what? That's true. No one notices zits as much as you notice it on yourself.

No, that's absolutely true. I remember one time in, I think I was like a freshman in high school. I had like this huge zit. Like it was bad. It was red. It was like right in the middle. I think it was right in the middle of my forehead. It was just really embarrassing.

And I talked to my mom about it. She was like, dude, let's just put a little makeup on it she's like no one's gonna know and this is like all right just i let her do it and she like covered it up with her makeup and blended in it it looked pretty good where was it i think it on my forehead do you know where i used to work let's talk about the worst ones to get one yeah i'm sorry i got called out for it a girl at school was like, do you have makeup on? I was like, no, no, what are you talking about? And I just turned and walked.

What are you talking about, bitch? She's still my friend to this day, by the way. She's the one that you lost at the concert? No, no, no. This is a friend from way, way back. You got a lot of friends. I got friends, all right. I'm a very friendly person.

I got a lot of friends, too, but most of them were in low places. See? How you retired this. Though that was well played. Never mind. Let's just move on from it. Worst places to get a zit.

For me, it goes... So this one's particular to me. I don't think other people necessarily think it's the worst. I used to get them on the side of my neck. Do you know what I'm talking about? And was what the really deep ones that would be there for like two weeks because they were too deep to do anything about and they were just painful i would also the the worst for me though is uh inside the nose and never had one of those yeah you lip okay lip is the the... Let's take lip out of it because lip obviously is going to confuse people

like with a herpy. And that's just... It's per se bad. It's painful and it puts out herpy vibes. It does put out herpy vibes and there's nothing you can do about it. I think... Have you never had the one inside the nose?

No. I think... No, I've gotten some on the outside that are like the serious ones and they hurt. Like your eyes water. Yes. That's the fucking worst. And popping them like you're not crying but you can't pop it. Somebody would think that you were crying.

If you touch it and it's on your nose and you even try to do something to it, it's going to make it so much worse. I never had like acne acne. I did. I didn't have acne either but I was a pimply adolescent. The one that's been high T.

The ones that is right where your nostril connects to your face, like right in that little crevice. That's always a bad one, too, because it just looks really bad. And it's impossible to get rid of. Dude, I always thought the worst, and this happened like two or three times, right between your eyebrows. Oh, I used to get that. Anything down the middle of your face i was trying to say earlier anything right down the middle yeah yeah forehead whatever man my sisters used to just pin me i have two older sisters they pin me down and just go at me dude what's what's the deal with girls that just love popping pimples like the on your back and stuff they love it dude yeah they love it yeah i'm like when i see

you in the locker room i'm always checking your back why because i want because that's a pretty good indicator that somebody's juicing so i'm watching your back son are you are you implying that i'm getting no not yet but i know you've been i know you've been dabbling in the uh testosterone arts so i'm watching your shit, man. Testosterone arts. I'm making sure. That's one of the things he warned me about, actually, is when your T rises, you need to be... That's one of the side effects,

is it can cause breakouts. There's some dudes in the gym, and they're young guys. They look like they're in their 20s, and they're big, but they have the most obvious back knee I've ever seen. It's easy to tell people who are juicing. Yeah.

It really is. A lot of them have most obvious back knee I've ever seen. It's easy to tell people who are juicing. Yeah. It really is. A lot of them have really bad back knee. Big vein. That big vein, like up here in the shoulder that goes down to the bicep. If you have a giant vein, you're probably juiced. Well, Dave, I'm going to accept that as an unintended compliment. Okay. What you just said about me.

I really appreciate what you said. Can I ask you this? Does this Lifetime Spa, do they do any kind of bleaching? I don't think so. Oh, yeah! If I were to do the anal bleaching, I would not do it there. Because you'd have to see these people. I've got to see these people.

If you do ever get that done, we need to have Micah go with you because he still owes us an anal bleaching as well. Maybe we can get a two-for-one special. You know Dan gets his haircut there. Jack Hammer, our old co-worker. And every time he does, they allow him to use the facilities for 24 hours. It's not a bad deal.

It's a nice little perk. I might do... No, I can't do that. I don't know if it's cost-efficient, but... No. Do they do beard trims? I don't know what haircuts cost there. Probably not cheap.

I think they do everything. That place is lit. Is it insufferable that I get beard trims? No. I've never been able to is it insufferable that i get beard trims uh i can i've never been able to tell insufferable no but i do think it's a little excessive and i don't know how you can't as someone who's had a beard for so long why you're not able to do it yourself because the way that she does it is just so much better than what i can do it just looks so much better fresh out the gate than what i do. And with me, if I'm doing it myself, you run the risk of botching it and having to shave your entire beard.

Ask Jack Hammer about that. He has had to do that numerous times. He's been getting a lot of play. He hasn't been listening because he normally texts me. He does listen. He's been texting me. He hasn't been texting me. He texted me the other day

because we're not going to go down this wormhole, but I said that Bradley Cooper wasn't a top tier actor. I heard that when I re-listened. That was a stupid statement. No, it wasn't. And I'll stand by it. But Dan texted me. He's like, hey, I'll ride or die for him.

Don't say that. He's definitely... I don't know who's bigger right now as far as male actors go. No. So I'm not talking fame. Okay. Fame-wise, he's... You're talking talent?

Fame-wise, he is A-list. Talent-wise, he's still... So yesterday, somebody mentioned this on our Patreon page in the forums that Dorn brought back. And so I went in and I looked and they were like, he has seven Academy Award nominations. And I was like, damn, I didn't realize that. I might be absolutely wrong here three aren't for acting three are for like original screenplay or original screenplay and two are best picture i was i was ready to go back on my take and then i didn't go back because i googled um some of the top actors and in terms

of talent there are still probably i could select probably 10 actors who i would put above him in terms of being in the hall of fame of acting um are they all as relevant as he is right now no that's that's not see that yeah okay daniel day lewis for example obviously a better actor but to compare than bradley cooper daniel day lew, I don't think there's anybody who would fight me on that. Exactly. But he's still relevant. He's retired. He did the Phantom Thread and I think he might be going back on his retirement. Did you see Phantom Thread?

No. I saw it on a plane. Is that the Star Wars? Yeah. It's a Star Wars. It's enough. No, but so like I googled it and I was like, okay, Tom Hanks, Denzel, Jack Nicholson. He's a little old now. He's very old.

He's not getting those roles anymore. No, he's just popping pills. But he's alive. He's alive. Okay. So he has a pulse. Leo. Yeah. Leo's one.

Yeah, he's not at Leo level. Leo's 1-1. Bradley Cooper's like, yeah, but it took Leo like 20 years. Exactly. 20 plus. I did say. Bradley Cooper's only a decade in. When Bradley Cooper wins one, he will automatically be in that top tier of actors.

Fame-wise, he is there. Dylan does not want to rehash this. Dylan's just thinking about this facial. I'm really excited for it. Which I am, too. I'm going to get a pump in. Is that the move before? Whoa, whoa, whoa.

You're going to pump pre-facial? I'm going to pump, then I'm going to take... I'm not going to steam or anything. I'm not going to hot tub it. Are you sure pumping is the move before? Why not? Gets the blood pumping. Why not?

I don't know. Let's be clear. I'm worried about the sweat. When Dylan says he's pumping, it means he's going to kind of walk around with his towel and his shorts, maybe do some shoulder raises, maybe a set of curls,

and he's going to look in the mirror. That's Dylan's workout. What do you do with your towel, Dave? I'll take a cool shower. I don't. I'm kind of ADD about it because you know I'm already a germ guy. So I have one side that I dub the dirty side

and I have the other side that's going to be the clean side and that's for my face to wipe off or my hair. So if I lay it down, I always know which side I'm laying down because it's always got to be the dirty side because if I lay it down on any equipment, then I can't use it. If I forget, I have to go get a new towel like if i'm

like oh i think that might have touched the wrong side then i have to get a new towel and it's my sad existence see that's the thing about like being a lifetime fitness member though you can just take as many towels as you need there's never a shortage they're always there it's so great in the in the locker room this is this is cute Shout out to Lifetime for this cuteness. It says, one towel, please. Yeah, all right. Yeah, okay. Yeah, dude.

I'm not even kidding. The other day, a guy brought eight towels into the steam room. That's too many towels. I counted them. He brought a stack of towels. Like, what are you doing with all those towels? That guy's carbon footprint is way bigger than ours. It's just really excessive.

If there's one thing you can get super excessive with, it's towels at the gym. When I worked at the gym, as everyone knows, you know, former gym employee, Swole Patrol, Big Will. I don't think anybody called you there. The clean towel output when I was there, it definitely spiked. I was on top of that. You know what the people want. They keep them moving at Lifetime, man. If you have a lot of towels available, people are going to be happy customers.

To their credit, too. There must be 100,000 towels in that building. Yeah. I mean, they just keep them. They just reload. Did y'all see that viral tweet the other day about how many towels you should have in your house? Uh-uh. Did you see it, Dave?

No. Somebody asked. They're like, I'm a grown man. How many towels should I have in my place? And this dude responded, and he was like, you need to have like 10 bath sheets, which are bath sheets are larger than your normal towel. When you get out of the shower, they're like pretty much massive towels, like 10 bath towels, blah, blah, blah. And like, everyone was just like, dude, what?

He had like a graph. And it was like, dude, no, that's way too many towels. Okay. Wait, why did he have a graph? He like made a graphic for it. That's some OCD shit, man. What a weirdo. How often do I wash my towels? Yeah. And OCD shit, man. What a weirdo. That's like Jack Nicholson as good as it gets.

How often do I wash my towels? Yeah. And I'm talking, let's talk just bath towel. I'm going to go with how many uses before instead of, because I find myself not using my home shower much anymore because I'm at live time all the time. But. Oh yeah. You're using the Zeta shower.

I probably. The community shower at the Zeta house. I probably use my towel four times before I wash it. Four to five. Okay. I'm trash. Four to five. Okay. I'm trash. I think that's fine. I don't wash my towels as much as people would think.

There's some people who will wash it after every other use. Yeah, that's too much. It's excessive. Or at least swap it out. I know. There's people in my life who never use a towel twice before washing. Yeah. I can't.

I don't got time for that. You're right, though. I do most of my showering at the gym now, which is great for our own personal water output. Yeah, I barely use my shower at home anymore. Is there anything worse? It makes you covet your own shower more. Yeah.

You know what I mean? Is there anything worse than going to someone's house, like staying somewhere, and they give you a towel, and it's like musty smelling that's the worst it's so gross you can tell it's got it's been sitting in a closet yeah and it's got little dust balls on it do y'all have nests no i've never been more aware of my energy output ever since i got a nest do they keep you informed yeah it tells you like your usage was up this much this last month and like here's why blah blah blah those are cool

your boy your boy was so eco-friendly in december january hit and i i guess i just got luxurious with it i my energy output was disgusting it happens it's okay we'll bounce back it's not a big deal. We're off to a high-energy start. I'll give you all the full report after the facial. Can I come in there and just hang out? Like, of course. It's 30 minutes.

It's a quick one. 30 minutes. She said it could take up to 45. Would you come? Yeah, say hi. Pop in, Dave. I'll pop in. Say, I'm here to see April and Dylan. Maybe she'll let me apply some of the facial serums.

Big serum guy, aren't you? What are you going to do if you open your eyes and I'm just standing there? Just looking at you. I'll just dap you up, player. Yeah. Like, oh shit, here's my boy Dave. Sorry, April. What up?

It's your boy Dave here with my boy Dylan getting a facial off. Will you go live from Dylan's's facial yeah i will yeah why do you need to go live more yeah i'm mainly talking from circling back pod okay if you haven't already go follow circling back pod on instagram it's real easy we're not even volume shooters which is the amazing thing like we're like if anything we're not posting enough we're efficient yeah we're not even volume shooters which is the amazing thing like we're like if anything we're not posting enough we're efficient yeah we're efficient with our posts uh dave i'm gonna let you intro this seg because this is near and dear to your heart the dunk oh man yeah okay so uh no less than 30 of our good patrons our good backers have been sending me the Duncanville track tweet

Duncanville is my hometown it's a suburb just outside of Dallas what's there at? it's not like a simple one it's like a bootleg well somebody clearly scooped it

but anyway they just posted an innocent photo of the track team like one of the relay teams and it has gone viral because somebody did a quote tweet classic quote tweet and it goes viral and it's just with some emojis face emojis and essentially the issue in this photo is you have two guys on the edges who are very, very big and athletic.

That's an understatement. They're Bs. Six feet plus. Six plus. They're physical specimens. To be clear, they're both like D1, like future D1 commits. Not just D1. They're not D1.

They're top tier D1. These are blue chip recruits. The guy on the left is Chris Thompson Jr. This is me knowing way too much about high school sports. You're invested in 17-year-olds. He's a safety. He's the best safety in Texas. He is going to the University of Texas at the moment.

And the dude on the far right is Jaquinden Jackson. He's a quarterback. He is an absolute unit. He has got offers from everybody. I don't know if he's going to end up being a quarterback or maybe a receiver, maybe switch to safety or something, but he can do what he wants pretty much. He's got another year. I'm pulling up both of these guys' 24-7 sports profiles.

Yes, Jaquinden? Jaquinden. Jaquinden Jackson is 6'2", 200, and you've got to assume that most of that weight is not fat. He looks bigger than 200. He does look bigger than 200. He has 100% committed to the University of Texas, but he had offers from Bama, Arkansas, Baylor.

What are Colorado and Connecticut doing? Wait, they're both going to Texas? But Quinn hasn't committed to Texas, has he? I think that's just where people think he's leaning. Okay. Sorry. This just says Texas 100%. Oh.

I don't think he is committed, but I could be wrong. Nationally, he's ranked 51st, but he's the second-ranked athlete. Yeah, I don't fully—Dylan, you used to be a big rivals guy. You understand the athlete thing. That just means they can— That just means if can be versatile. If they're not sure yet where you project on the next level, they'll label you an athlete and figure out where you're going to play

once you get to college. Sure. Is what that means. And then Chris Thompson Jr. is 6'2", 195, ranked 38th nationally, second safety. Yeah. So anyway, then there's another dude who also plays football. I don't know much about him.

He's smaller. I mean, he's probably like 5'10". 5'9", 5'10", yeah. Average height guy. Athletic still. And then there's another dude who's significantly shorter than the rest. Now that I'm looking at this guy, I think he's under 5 feet tall. Funny enough.

I really do think that. So he looks... What's his name? I don't know his name. Okay. I wish I did. I would shout you out. But it's just a shocking and hilarious photo.

People have been sending it to me. And at first, I was like, dude, don't make fun of this kid. He's a kid, high school kid, whatever. And then I started reading the replies, and I saw that the guys on the team, like Jaquinden and Chris, the other dudes, they were responding, and they were laughing about it. So I was like, okay, surely this guy's got a good sense of humor about it.

But anyway, I've seen the tweet. Please, you don't have to send it to me anymore. It's at Duncanville underscore TF, I've seen the tweet please you don't have to send it to me anymore it's at Duncanville underscore TF which clearly that's a

different TF than I'm thinking but I think that might stand for track and field that makes sense the funny thing is the kid who's five feet

he's actually the he runs fourth he's the anchor yeah he's got wheels I watched the video did you watch the video of him

he fucking his feet are moving fast yeah well sometimes it appears that way because they have to they have to double up to take more steps they gotta double up to other people to cover the same ground so yeah i get it uh are there any good responses like right in the immediate replies to this tweet that need to be read? I don't approve of this one. It says, that's not fair. They went out and got a leprechaun. Dune has been running from kids his whole life to keep his cereal away.

It's like, all right, dude. That's just. You don't want to be that guy. He's got a meme. He's got to put himself. They got to go. They got to put themselves in the order of what they ran. And so he's on the edge.

This might be my favorite meme. It's just people were... Somebody took the photo, and they put the word friend over the three taller guys, and then me under the... Or above the shorter guy. I mean, I'm sure this has been done with this guy. It's the meme that's been going around lately where it's like symbols that make up like a big jack dude,

and then there's like the little tiny head down the bottom. Oh, yeah. That's a good one. That has to be done at this point, right? Yeah, probably. Yeah. I got a tweet off. I said this is how I feel in every circling back pic

because y'all are a few inches taller than me. That was less you doing yourself wrong and I feel like that was just doing me right. Like I'm not that tall. I'm 5'11". You're 5'11". Are you only 5'11"? Man, a doctor measured me at six foot one time.

So if you look at my driver's license, it says six foot. Oh, yeah, you got to go with that. But I did have my shoes off in that measurement too. So it might have been official, but I'm definitely 5'11". The other day I did a joke Instagram story. I re-shared my wife's video of me carrying Randy home from the park. He ran over there.

He wasn't supposed to do that. So I was just like, you know what? I'm going to pick you up, teach you a lesson. And then people were like, dude, how big is Randy? So I responded. I said, well, for reference, I'm 6'3", 225. So yeah, he's pretty big. I enjoyed that.

I had a number of people who I guess are new here like, dude, you're not 6'3". Oh, God. You're not. Take a joke, pal. I am flattered that you at least thought it was in the realm of possibility that I was flirting with 6'3". There's always someone on the internet who doesn't quite get a joke.

Nah. At least one person, and they'll call you out for it. There's one guy I've got a dialogue with. I was like, dude, that's what I measured at. Unless he's listening to this, then he's never going to know. It will be tight to be 6'3", 225. That's a good athletic guy. People always think I weigh less than I weigh.

Is it because you're made of cotton? You look thinner than you actually are is what you're saying? No, I don't think I do. That's the thing. Like, I think I look the appropriate amount that I weigh, but people always think that I weigh like 15 pounds less than what I am. It's probably because you're wearing pants and they can't see your fucking trunk legs. Yeah.

Dude, these things pack power. Your kneecaps are the size of my skull. I want to get you on the squat rack and see what happens. If there's one thing that I might be able to think I could hold my own with in the weight room with you guys, it's a leg press. I'm pretty confident that your legs are stronger than mine right now. I've always had strong legs. I actually work out my legs. My upper body is a disgrace.

I would like to see that competition. A squat off between me and Will? How about leg press? Because I think you don't have to have a great form. I would like to see that competition. A squat off between me and Will? How about leg press? Because I think you don't have to have a great form. Yeah, I can't do squat. And Will's going to die. If you squat, I would die. I would like to see it, but I want to see how sore you are the next two days.

My upper body is an absolute disgrace when it comes to lifting weights. Bench press, my buddy, he took me in. He was a college athlete, and he took me in the weight room one time. He was like, yeah, I'll teach you how to do some basic strength training stuff. This was a long time ago. And he couldn't believe how little I could bench press at the time. And I can tell you positively that I have added zero muscle on my arms or anything since. We're going to get you in the weight room eventually.

I got a free day got a a free day pass sponsored ad on Instagram from Lifetime Fitness. Look, let's go They're listening. They're listening. Let's go one day.

You'll come with us. We're not going to put you through like a rigorous you know, workout. But just like fuck around with the weights and see let's just

let's just feel it out, man. Dude, I'm a I'm a treadmill boy. Just that high interval training. Well, they have those too. They also have like the low impact treadmills. I love that. Stair climbers.

I respect the low impact because it preserves your body, but I can't be seen on that. I feel like it's just so soft. They're great, man. You know, like elliptical people, I respect that you're saving your knees, but come on. Yeah, take care of your joints, dog. It just looks so lame. Dude, you found me on that stair climber. I did 100 floors the other day.

Is that why you're stupid cheeked up? 100's not that much. 100 floors? I feel like it's a lot. You're on there for like 10 minutes. I've just been going to the Westlake. I'm not? I've just been going to the Westlake Stadium and just running the stairs.

That's a great workout. Dude, stairs? There was nothing worse. We used to run stairs in high school. Nothing worse than in high school when they were like alright we're going to the stadium running stairs today

it was just like fuck this is gonna kill me yeah yeah I feel you can I address another thing

that I'm being sent that is a potential attack on me yeah this guy I'm gonna share his at he's got a decent following his name's

at Greggy boy he has a tweet it says it's a terrible at it says I think he has a podcast I'm going to share his at. He's got a decent following. His name is at Greggyboy. He has a tweet. It's a terrible at. I think he has a podcast. It's good. The male equivalent to girls who think liking wine, pizza, Netflix, and dogs is a personality trait are guys that think working out, listening to the Joe Rogan podcast, and liking UFC is a personality trait.

Wow. At Dave. That's what I said, man. Can I voice something? Yeah, do it. Liking UFC is a personality trait. Wow. At Dave. That's what I said, man. Can I voice something? Yeah, do it. This is a tweet that I've had in my drafts for two weeks now. Wow.

Every guy out there who thinks that liking pizza is not a personality trait, who has tweeted that and stuff, most likely thinks that the Barstool pizza reviews are the funniest thing on the internet. Wait, wait, wait. I'm not following. Is it guys who are critical of girls saying that you're saying? Yeah. But they are calling out a hypocrisy.

That's pretty different. I guess. Liking pizza and enjoying video content of someone eating pizza and reviewing it is pretty different. Can I say this? And also, I'm not going to act like they're not funny because they are. They're somewhat entertaining. I think there's a lot of other stuff. El Prez's, every single one of El Prez's bits that's not the pizza one is funnier than his pizza one. Dude, I'll give the guy credit.

I don't know what it is about those videos, but they're so entertaining to me. I'm like mesmerized. It's because he, like, sorry to gas him up. It's because he's fucking hilarious. He is funny um as somebody who is relatively new to his universe i didn't know anything about barstool until i started working for grand x our previous employer i just was kind of i was out on not out on i just didn't know what it was yeah um but the more i followed him the more i think the pizza reviews are i think they're

borderline genius no they're great they're they're they're not that there's nothing that funny about it it's just him he's great it's he it's his interaction with people like when he goes and like interacts with the staff on occasion or like the chef like it's just funny there was the one and i sent this to all y'all i know exactly maybe a year ago and he was on you know it was the streets of new york obviously but it was like the most new york video you can possibly imagine yeah um just the way he was engaging with people leaving the restaurant from you know and people walking by people walking by were just jawing at him so at the end when like all this crazy shit has already happened this old man walks walks up

he's like i fought for years like he's like he fought in world war ii like i fought for years and dave was like yeah i'm trying to do a piece of review it was so funny yeah uh no he nails it but anyway this dude i don't feel attacked because I think this guy has a point. I hope nobody thinks that I am, when I tweet or talk about Rogan and pretty much Rogan, like I'm that into it. I do listen to the podcast, but I don't take it that seriously. I do it kind of as a bit. Have you been listening to less?

I feel like it doesn't come up as much anymore. It doesn't, but only because Mike is not here and Mike is the only other one who might understand some of the references. I know y'all don't listen to it really. I'm a selective listener. I have to really like the guests in order to listen at this point just because it's such an undertaking. But I definitely still listen, but I don't listen to all of them. But I don't know.

I don't see. I guess I don't follow that many people that are tweeting about the three things just got talked about. Working out, UFC, and Joe Rogan. Unless maybe that is me. That's what the Grand X office turned into for a short period of time. You're right. And to the point where I was like,

I guess I'm going to start watching UFC more because I want to talk to people. I genuinely enjoy combat sports. That's not a bit. I don't really tweet about it that much just because there's nothing I have to offer that someone who knows more about it isn't already offering. So it's like, why would I tweet about that? I don't agree with that.

What do you mean? I would like it if you tweeted about it more. I'm hesitant to tweet about sports because I I I feel like people people my following over the last couple years is here for like fajita talk and like jokes like that and like if I start tweeting about

who the Rangers just picked up or signed to like a you know spring spring training deal like people are like what I'm trigger shy with local sports

when it comes to by local I mean my home teams from Michigan I'm hesitant with that because i don't think most of my following cares about that i've gotten much more free with soccer tweets just because i'm watching more than ever and i also uh i wouldn't hate getting some more interaction in my mentions from people who also watch but i try not to overdo it just because i know that

probably 90 at least 90% of my followers don't give a shit. Yeah. But I would like to see more UFC talk from you. That's just me. As somebody who doesn't know a ton about UFC, I know what the starter level UFC stuff. I need to know more because it's booming. It won't do much for me, I'll be honest.

Yeah. I don't really care that much it's because you're you're a pussy yeah that too sorry mom um somebody in his replies made a good point replace ufc with sports betting yeah that is a 100 that's a segment of twitter that is just overdone and i get a lot of it sponsored like you kind of you know some people like we've done that in the past you have to as someone who is out of the sports betting game, who used to be in, it's like I don't care about people talking about sports betting anymore. And that goes for literally everybody.

Unless it's Scott Van Pelt, who we almost hired the other day. Yeah, Scott. SVP does it great on his show. His bad beats, great. I don't watch that. It's on a little late but sometimes i catch it yeah and i can't believe he was almost our during the bell is the king of shitty betting tweets right now yeah it's a shame that negotiations really fell through at the end

there well you know close yeah i mean to to almost hire somebody that you've never met who is um at the top of his game yeah for the worldwide leader in sports. But only on Twitter. Would have been a big coup. Backers never said die, though. I haven't given up. Okay, good. Good. We should see if he wants to come down for South by.

Where's SVP going to record for us? We need him in-house, right? Oh, yeah, you've got to get the guy on camera. His connections, that would be big. Yeah. He could probably open a lot of doors for us he could probably open a lot of doors for us we could open a lot of doors for him though man how about this jag taking that croc out of the river like that that would have been like us taking scott van pelt out at espn yeah i don't

think we would have killed him first no we wouldn't have killed him but we would have like just gently taken him away would we have put something in like a uh handkerchief and like put it on like passed him out and then just dragged him out think about the merchandising uh yeah let's do some animal talk dylan's over here well he's been talking all this shit on jaguars well we didn't plan on on doing this but since i mean if something goes viral regarding a big cat we're kind of pot committed at this point we have to at least discuss it. I first saw this video, let's see, on the 24th. So I guess it was Sunday. And here's the caption.

First of all, it's a video of a beast of a jaguar dragging what I guess is a gator or a croc out of a river by his neck. And it's tight. Yeah, it's one of the most intimidating things I've ever seen. This huge croc just looks like a rag doll. If you want to see this video, we tweeted it from the Circling Back account, at Circling Back Pod on Twitter. I'm going to defend Dylan at the people saying, or tweeting it at Dylan, because Dylan's never said he could take a jag.

Yeah, I never said jag. I'm not that stupid. At this point, I assume that you think that you can take any big cat, so that's just my assumption. A jaguar is the pit bull of big cats. It's a little shorter and stockier, and it's really strong and just ferocious. Mr. Worldwide? But the tweet I saw, it was really funny, so I retweeted it. It said, jaguars make very poor lifeguards.

Almost 90% of animals they save from drowning dive neck injuries afterwards it's a very humorous tweet pretty funny so i gave it the retweet dude and then days later people are just unloading on me that sounded weird would you rather yeah well they sent it to me a lot you're getting a facial today yeah would you rather um you're in a you're in an octagon yeah hand to hand sure jaguar or female lion and I say female because they do most of the hunting right right

I would rather fight a jaguar I think okay either way I'm dead either way we're dead either way but are we really pronouncing

a jaguar a jaguar jaguar I just say jaguar jaguar what are we saying jaguar Dylan just hit us

with a Jaguar. Jaguar. That's how most people say it, even though I know it's not technically correct. But that's common. Yeah. Jaguar. You having some espresso later? Do you say Jaguar?

Jaguar. Jaguar. Don't the people across the pond say Jaguar? Jaguar. Jaguar. Jaguar. I don't know. Honestly, if you said that to me, I might headbutt you.

Jaguar. That's very smug. What was the thing that you said that to me, I might headbutt you. Jaguar. That's very smug. What was the thing that you said the other day? I can see Will testing that. Premier League. You had one the other day that was just... My absolute favorite one is controversy. Nobody says that.

They do in England. Yeah, they do. You're not in England. And also, they say pecan for pecan pie. I've heard pecan said so many different ways. Pecan pie. Pecan. Pecan.

Pecan. Pecan. Hey Siri, how much does a jaguar weigh? Oh, wow. This didn't work. You were just betrayed by that. That's good content right there. I'm going to edit this out, but that should have worked.

I have a Google machine in front of me. Well, no. I was doing it because I have the British Siri, and I was hoping that she would say it. Let's try this one more time. We'll edit this if it doesn't work. Oh, I see what you're doing. Hey, Siri. How much does a Jaguar weigh?

The typical weight of a Jaguar is 79 to 350 pounds. Jaguar? Jaguar. Jaguar. 79 to 350 pounds. Jaguar? Jaguar. Jaguar. Wait, did she say to 350? Dude, that's a huge... That's not what I'm seeing on Google. Just saying.

Siri might be off here. What are you seeing? I'm seeing 120 to 210 pounds. Okay. It just says adult. It doesn't specify. I want to see the other guy at the end of that bell curve. Yeah.

That's just 350. Yeah. That's just 350. Yeah. I mean, does it matter what kind of animal he just dragged out of this thing? No, it's impressive either way. That's a big reptile. But if it's an alligator versus a crocodile versus a caiman, does it matter? Caiman crocodile. Yeah.

Caiman is a gator. I don't know. I believe there is a caiman crocodile. It's Caiman is a gator. I don't know. I believe there is a caiman crocodile. It's in the family of one of the two. Wow. But does it matter? I cannot wait for people to correct us. Mainly me.

A crocodile, I think, is the most badass of that family. The saltwater croc might be the scariest. Yeah. Like Australia, they've got crazy crocs. And of course, as we know, they can live forever. We don't know that. We do.

It's possible to know that. Science points to them living forever. Underrated. That's an animal that, like it's such an awkward, that's an awkward thing to drag out of a river. Like think about how it's flailing around. Its tail is so strong, and you got it by the neck.

The strength of the neck of that thing. Yeah, dude. Can you imagine getting hit by one of the tails? Break your wrist. Your leg. Your ankle. I feel like it could, like, lacerate you with just the pure force behind it. Dude, Randy's tail hurts me. Yeah.

He's a golden retriever. Yeah, but you're a bitch boy, Dave. That's true. Wow, dude. I's a golden retriever. Yeah, but you're a bitch boy, Dave. That's true. Wow, dude. I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. So Dylan just got up to blow his nose, and he's like leaning his head down to just throw heat at him. Unnecessarily roast Dave.

What was that? You don't need to do that. Oh, man. We're having fun now. I still can't believe we almost had SVP here. Yeah, wow. I don't know. Have we tried DMing him?

One of the backers was just brokering the deal for us. We didn't even ask him to do it. I would have given him a cut. Yeah. Yeah. You got to think that would have helped our reach. I actually, I went rogue. I didn't tell you all about this, but I tried to hire Tom Cruise.

Really? Oh, dude, that's a bad idea who's just gonna be like a director of programming minister of culture minister of culture dude it didn't work out he didn't respond good i tried like i was like i was very very uh high off of the negotiations from with svp on twitter and uh i just like you know what i'm gonna go big dude i'm like after tom cruise i can't have that. I can't be one degree of separation away from Scientology. I feel like I'm already going to get duped into it at some point in my life.

So to have him right there, it just doesn't make sense for me. Is SVP a Scientologist? No, no. I think Tom Cruise is. Oh, you're talking about Tom Cruise. Yeah. Okay. Man.

Well, don't get sucked in, man. Dude, I'm just afraid. I'm going to have to rescue you if you do i'm afraid like if i ever go to la if i ever go to la with you guys make sure that i'm not like dude let's go let's go check out the uh the headquarters because next thing you know i'm gonna be on a fucking ship in the middle of the ocean in the sea org just getting fucking is that what they do they take you on a ship yeah it's called the sea org it's creepy as fuck i'm not trying to get on that shit dog i know that's the thing though i don't know i get so stuck if there's one thing that sucks me in a

scientology when it comes to like reddit and stuff wormholes there's a dude that did an ama the other day and he was somebody who just got out of scientology and he was like ask me anything and i read like every single comment yeah it was very interesting it's so crazy it never stops amazing me yeah the the two subjects that i get most just like enthralled with is uh scientology and north korea because they're just what they're just wild environments probably somewhat similar environments yeah i mean i think north korea might be a little bit more aggressive but like similar like, similar mentality. You're definitely going to serve some ads on your phone now for Scientology.

100%. They, like, try to disguise how they recruit you. They have a channel. Did you know they have a channel? I don't know. Like, on the TV? Yeah. They have a direct TV channel. It's just the...

I don't know if it's, like, the Scientology network, but it's all programming based on Scientology. Dude, like, David Miscavige,ige like the guy who's in charge of everything like his wife is just gone she's just missing no one's seen her in like seven years or something yeah that's uh but it's somehow kind of red flag i blame the government but that's another topic for another day. Wow, that's a very generic and vague accusation. The government. It's their fault. State, local, fed. They deemed them a religion.

Yeah, so now they just fucking own everything. It's bullshit. Tax-free org. And Leah Romini's just putting out a new show every damn day about it. Her catalog on IMDB's got to be deep now. She'll always be Stacey Carosi to me. Yeah. catalog on imdb's gotta be deep now she'll always be stacy carosi to me yeah to t-man she'll always be the the wife from king of queens was t-man a king of queens guy oh yeah he's a big king of queens guy you're right actually can we can we talk real quick just about no we don't i don't

want to go down this i was going to talk about it, but we don't have to. Your Stacey Carosi thing got me feeling nostalgic. Those were the best. Can we agree that those were some of the best episodes of Saved by the Bell? When the whole squad was lifeguarding? Yeah. Or working the summer resort? It was awesome because you got Mr. Carosi, you got Stacey Carosi,

and you also got the opportunity to see all of the girls on Saved by the Bell in bikinis, which was just huge for your boy back then. What beach was that? Malibu. Was that Malibu? I believe so. Wasn't there a volleyball game in the winter and got a car or something? Dude, the volleyball game was the worst sand volleyball I've ever seen.

It was such a poor effort. Slater was terrible. It was Saved by the Bell. What were you expecting i would expect slater being a what who what appeared to be a d1 athlete which i think he was i think he did end up playing football in the college years i expected him to not suck yeah he was like 5'8 you can't anyway then he's a dig he's a dig guy he's bum set wasn't there a scene i vaguely remember somebody hitting one off of Screech's head and it goes over and scores a point.

Probably. Did that happen? Probably. That seems like it happened. If it didn't, it should have. I think it was over the 4th of July. They had a relay race. And it was A.C. Slater versus Lisa Turtle.

And Lisa just smoked him. It was an obstacle course. They had to crawl through a tunnel. I do remember that. And it was like, dude, Slater's not losing to Lisa Turtles. Nah, that ain't happening. No.

Like, he's a specimen. He would be dominating the dude in that photo from Duncanville. Nah, I would slow down there. She looks weird these days, by the way. Lisa Turtle? Yeah. About Lark Voorhees?

Yeah. Yeah, Lark Voorhees. Lark Voorhees. What did I say Viorhees yeah she's looking I think she's doing like the Sammy Sosa thing that's what I was going to say let's look this up

she's definitely skewing that direction yeah what a show that was a show that I was certified obsessed with um why does she kind of look like Lil' Kim? Oh, that's not a compliment. Oh man.

Yeah, this is not a good look. What is she doing? I don't know. I'm going to close out because I feel weird now. She's not getting roles. I don't like seeing that. No, not looking like this. Why are her eyes like this?

Hard to say. Oh. Lisa, no. This is tough. It's not looking like this. Why are her eyes like this? Hard to say. Oh. Lisa, no. This is tough. It's not in, honey. So... Sis, no. That is something that you watched as a child?

Oh, yeah. I watched Saved by the Bell for sure. You had to. If you didn't... If that was something that you did not watch, that's when I would be positive that you were an alien. Yes. That would be the deal breaker for's when I would be positive that you were an alien. Yes. That would be the deal breaker for me.

I would ask you to leave. That would be rude. I always thought that Jesse Spano was underrated. Kelly was definitely the A1, but Jesse Spano, in hindsight, was a looker. She didn't do much for me. Showgirls? I was more attracted to her mind. I don't know if she was all there at that show either, though.

I'm so excited. That was a red flag. I like the one where she protested the oil company. When the ducks were just covered in oil. Yeah. That was really depressing. How did they do that? They brought a duck in covered in oil like did they did what did what they cover it in hopefully it wasn't oil that duck just took took one for the team i will say it was a little bit weird how excited the kids got because um i don't think any of the students

owned any of those minerals it wasn't like they were going to share in the wealth of the oil being found on the California coast. Let's be honest, Zach's dad probably did. Yeah, no, that's... What was Mr. Belding's brother's name? I always think of you when I think of him. Todd Belding? No. Are you sure?

Rich? What was it? Mr. Belding... He totally bailed on their senior trip to go hang out with the stewardess. Dude, this guy. Oh, my God. Is it Todd? No.

What is it? Your clothes. It's better than Todd. Rod. Rod Belding. Rod Belding. Oh, my God. It's probably for the best he didn't go on the senior trip because he would have been hooking up with the students.

No, he definitely would have been doing something bad or at least like another chaperone or something well he was gonna take them white water rafting yeah and then mr belding stepped in no i didn't he ghosted yeah rod ghosted yeah stewardess how much of a downer is it if you're like a student and all of a sudden you have to go with mr belding instead of Rod? That's devastating. Let me say this. As someone who has whitewater rafted before.

Wow. Sneaky shouts to California, the American River specifically. That would not be an activity I would want to go do with a bunch of random classmates. It's taxing from what I hear. It's taxing. It's not easy. And if you have anybody who might be a complainer or just totally suck, you don't want them on your raft. What about like a liability? Liabilities, you don't want that.

Somebody's hitting a rock. Somebody's going down. My mom went on a white water rafting trip in Lake Tahoe. And my mom's a talker. She's also a loud talker. She uses her hands to talk. And she was telling a story on it. Oh, no.

They hit a fucking thing. She just flew off the back. That happens. It's like, sorry. Later. It's fun. I wasn't there for it. I didn't catch an invite.

So, shouts to my parents for keeping me from Tahoe. Not cool. Damn. We should go do that. If anybody listening is a guide or knows a guide and would like to have us out, cover our travel and room and board and whatnot and meals per diem and whatnot, we'll do it for sure. Whatnot. Whatnot and such.

Right now, I'm going to speak to one of our friends, former colleagues, but still someone we are involved with often. His name is Kyle Bandujo. You might know him from writing for us on PGP from a podcast called the Dadgum Podcast, which is currently going on. He's also launching a new podcast called Trouble with the Script that is a sports movie podcast. Dave, I think you're slated to be on it, aren't you? We're negotiating. Okay. I have not recorded my episode with him yet No, I'm definitely doing it I'm pretty happy with the movie that I got He's going to get me and then Scott Van Pelt It's a tough act to follow for SVP

Are you just doing the sports scenes from the Malibu Sands episodes? Actually Saved by the Bell It's not a bad idea We'll see if he'll let me do it right now we're gonna play a short clip from him uh this is the first this is just the preview of his podcast it's launching tomorrow thursday so if you're listening go subscribe you can find it on itunes spotify check it out hi i'm kyle bandujo i'm a freelance writer podcast host most of all

a sports fan naturally i'm also a huge fan of sports movies, and when it comes to sports movies, I love authenticity. Anything in sports cinema that feels realistic or like it could have happened in real life is something that really puts a film over the top for me. Same goes for the opposite. Seeing something on screen that's so implausible it could have never worked, or watching an actor who looks like they'd never played a game of catch being portrayed as a star athlete drives me crazy. That's why I'm starting Trouble with the Script, a sports movie podcast that appreciates a bit of authenticity. Each episode, a guest and I will dissect a different sports movie, what worked, what didn't work, and how things could have been fixed, or at least improved. So if you're a sports movie fan who appreciates some authenticity,

or even just enjoys a good sports flick, follow us on Twitter at TroublePod, Instagram at TroubleWithAScriptPod, and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. All right, big ups, Kyle. I can't wait to be on it. Major shots to Kyle. I have to watch my movie, though. He invited me on, too, by the way. You have to do Major League, right?

He already did Major League. Oh, shit. Yeah, I saw that. That's fucked up. That stupid idiot. You have to do a baseball movie, though, already did Major League. Oh, shit. Yeah, I saw that. That's fucked up. That stupid idiot. You have to do a baseball movie, though, just because you're like, as Dave said, you were born as a 14-year-old with a bat in your hand. There are plenty out there to discuss.

Field of Dreams. The Natural. Ooh. Bull Durham. Bull Durham, man. You know you've been to Bull Durham. I've been to the Field of Dreams. You guys know that?

I ran the bases. I don't care. It was tight. Where is it? Iowa? Yeah. Yeah, my dad went through a big Field of Dreams phase. He managed to take a road trip.

That's tight. It was fine. I mean, it's a long drive. Yeah. It's a long drive, but... God, that's got to be a boring drive. Yeah. I was pretty young, so I don't remember a lot of it.

Did you get into Iowa? But, like, I just remember... Like, if I had to do that now, I just wouldn't. Not worth it. Nope. No one talks about For Love of the Game. I loved that movie.

Did you guys know they did a Sandlot 2? Yes. I was going to tweet about this. I stumbled upon it a couple weeks ago. I can't describe the level of shit

that this movie is. Don't you hate that? It's... Sandlot was a classic. I understand wanting to do a sequel to it, a money grab, but don't just shit the bed. Legitimately, I had never heard that they had done this.

And when I saw it, I thought it was a joke. I thought this was like an SNL skit. But you've seen it? No. Fuck no. It's the laziest thing I've ever seen. They basically rehashed the entire plot, but this takes place in the late 60s.

It's awful. And they add, like, there's some girls in it. That's bad. So I got a little buzz the other night at Matt's El Rancho with Dylan. Oh, crazy. Came home and made Sally watch D2. I saw you tweeting. She was just like, why, why, why are you making me do this right now? And the next morning I woke up and I was like, yeah, maybe I shouldn't have had that last Mexican TV. over at row back you guys heard us talk about it on monday's episode um i mean i'll be honest they just sent us another shipment of stuff and we have an embarrassment of riches right now yeah

It's just money. It really is.

Support him. It's finally getting good. Yeah. No, it's getting back to good. Yeah, there was a lull.

It started good. It's getting back to good. One of the main points I want to bring up is I'm proud of the fathers in this episode. It's about time that they're like, no, I'm not just going to give my blessing to this dude I met 20 minutes ago who's dating my daughter on a reality show with a bunch of other chicks. Shit's weird and hollow and... I thought about you. Hated it.

I thought about you. But finally the dads are like, yeah, I'm going to just exercise a little common sense here and be like, no, I'm not ready to give you my blessing. I just met you, dude. I thought Cassie's dad was kind of a dickhead. He was. From the get-go. Yeah. Like, he had a look about him's dad was kind of a dickhead. He was. From the get-go.

Yeah. Like, he had a look about him. I was like, that guy's probably a prick. No, yeah, he's a prick. Another thing I noticed, when Cassie and her dad were talking, both of their pupils were like saucers. Did y'all notice that? Like, they were both rolling on X or something.

You think they were gone off that bullshit? Or does that make them small? They had, like, freakishly large pupils. While I'm not well versed i think that ecstasy makes them small makes them big okay whatever makes your people big they were on because it was weird i almost tweeted about it but i held back pussy uh uh her family barrett dudley one barrett dudley had a good take on them her family was just like real life californians from snl yeah it was it was hilarious in california yeah he caught some party waves he tried he tried he had one that looked good and you could tell that they used that first

because the rest of them were just like nah this isn't gonna work he seems like he might be too big to be good at surfing well i mean okay i like started i started talking to sally about the surfing situation as if i'm like a surfer because i went surfing once uh his board looked a little too small based on the boards that we had it was also foam which i have to imagine is not what you're supposed to do if you're cold dude ours were chris harrison spring for the wood ours were our training yeah they training, yeah, they were foam. Oh, okay. So,

surfboards, they come in all different sizes, of course, but like the shorter ones are the guys, you know, the guys that you see like power surfing. Kelly Slater and shit.

You can turn. You can turn and do all the wild shit. Those are the short ones. Those are for small waves. Yeah. The big ones, those are just for cruising. They're easier.

Yeah. Yeah. Oh. Toes on the nose. Toes on the nose, yeah. Okay, in terms of hometowns, who stood out the most to you in just the date itself? None of them stood out to me at all.

Let's do a breakdown. Let's see. Who do we have? Kaylin first. Her sister was a little aggressive what did her sister do i don't know the name tripping me out uh everyone's eyes have got me when she was doing her outfit prep for the show she was uh she had a theme what was the theme She had a theme What was the theme? Tease out

Okay This was her moment This was her 15 minutes She took advantage of it Because it was jarring I mean I don't think she's the only sister Who took advantage of the situation Cassie's sister

Definitely knew what she was doing I told you she was a smoke Did you brief us before this? That she was doing I told you she was a smoke did you tell did you brief us before this that she was Instagram famous and stuff

I said she has a twin sister who is more attractive than she is and dates a famous television slash movie star

so she can't be the next did we ever figure out who this guy is that she's dating I could figure it out pretty easily I think is it Tom Cruise

it's actually SVP It wouldn't surprise me if she was assigned Tom I will find out for you You think that her family might be No no apparently she was on a very Christian dating show Cassie beforehand Wait what?

Yeah someone tweeted at us I don't remember who it was or what it was But apparently she was on another dating show that was very Christian based Just putting that out there okay that doesn't make me happy regarding her because i don't like when they do retreads i don't like it when they've been on more no dating shows that i don't know why i should care but i do so i need to make an admission i think i've had some spoilers well don't tell me i'm not i i have not gotten any solid spoilers regarding who wins anything like that but i've been told a scenario that might

happen which is my theory as to why colton jumps over the wall i will also say that colton jumping over the wall is the most overblown and like social media joke ever right now. I have news. Okay. Okay, so... If you spoil this, I'm going to punch your face. No, no, no. It's about Cassie's sister. Okay.

It's not really news. I'm just telling you the situation. You have nudes of Cassie's sister? Her name is Michelle Randolph. Her boyfriend is Greg Sulkin. Oh, the Sulk. 4.2 million followers on Instagram. What?

Sulk Dog has 4.2 million? He's an EDM DJ. He's a very handsome fella. Is he? I don't know. It just sounds like it. What? Sulk Dog has 4.2 million? He's an EDM DJ. He's a very handsome fella. Is he? I don't know. It just sounds like it. I don't know what he does yet. I'll find out.

I thought you said you had news. Good news. We have his first and last name. I have some news. Just slow down here. Okay. He's a British actor. Oh, he's got the accent.

Oh, game over. Game over. He's just a really handsome fella. Let me see him. What's his name? Sulkin? He made his film debut in 2002 with

Dr. Zavago miniseries. He later landed the starring role in 2006 British release 66 and then was in some Disney Channel shit.

Greg Sulkin? Greg Sulkin. He spells it with two G's? Yeah. Are you serious? Alright, I'm out on this guy. He's pretty hot.

He also looks like he's about 5'4". He has a fuckboy haircut like you have never seen before. Oh, he's really short. He's a hot dude, though. What do you think about the skydiving? Man, if I went on a date and that happened to me, I would not be happy. Oh, I wouldn't do it. Statistically, it's safer than bungee jumping which they had previously done i've done both still i will never ever ever skydive or bungee jump i will skydive

before i bungee jump oh it's safer i would absolutely do that too but still not doing either i'll never forget when i jumped out of a plane for the first time i looked over at the pilot and i said excuse me while I kiss the sky. And I just fell back out and tumbled. That did not happen. I did skydive. True story. Also in California.

Tandem? Yeah. You skydived? Yeah, I was like 18. How did I not know this? You haven't seen my tat? I have a video of it. You can pay extra and there's an Australian dude who jumps with you,

and he just has a camera in your face the whole time. Digitize that so we can get that shit on Instagram. What are you doing? I'm wearing a gray polo, and I think I might be wearing cargo shorts. That's awesome. It was like 1998. That's awesome. No, it was actually like 2001.

Damn it. Dylan, I don't think you were surprised because I think you already knew this because you're a spoiler boy were you surprised by who went home no did you did you know beforehand no okay i knew i was i know i knew the top four and i knew the winner once he picked what's her name hannah no hannah and then he picked caitlin no caitlin went home sorry tasia maybe tasia is that her name yeah i always fuck up her name i always think it starts with an a but it's just got the hard a uh when when he picked her i was like okay caitlin's going home because he's he's not done with cassie yet i know it kind of looked grim after cassie's dad was pretty standoffish with colton but he still has those

googly eyes for her so i was i was ready to see caitlin go home or caitlin sorry is caitlin what's her temperature on being the next bachelor i think i said this last pod or last time we did this she is my front runner for this although i don't think it's a she doesn't have a strong claim to the throne but if anybody from this season is going to get the nod, it's her. I still think it's Hannah G. Puppy dog face blonde? Yeah. Of course, assuming she doesn't win.

Okay. Okay, thanks, Taylor. Sorry. God damn it. Sorry. Kaylin has 513,000 followers. That's a lot. Being in the pageant world, I think, gives her a nice little edge when it comes to being able to...

What's the word I'm looking for? When it comes to be able to tailor yourself and your behavior to appease a lot of people. I just could see her doing it. I don't know. I think she could do it. Sure. a lot of people i just could see her doing it i don't know i think she could sure the only issue is that like i was talking to sally about this is that it almost doesn't matter it almost you have to see everything pan out because there's no way that becca would have ever been the bachelorette

had ari not done her so wrong because she was kind of a dud we didn't see a lot from her on the season so it's like if something crazy, you might see somebody else be it. What? That's completely fair. Was Hannah G, she's the one who Colton had to go to Southern Gentleman finishing school before he could go meet her family. Yeah, what the fuck? I'm just going to tell you.

I've lived in Texas for a long time. Texas is the South. It's not SEC South, but it's a South. Nobody's really doing that. No. No one's reading the Gentleman's Handbook that they bought at the Brooks Brothers cash register. I will also venture to say that anyone who is of that

mentality like wants to be so prim and proper all the time is just a pretentious dickhead there it is like this guy's a that may offend and I'm sorry but that's how I feel he may not have been there

long and he may not have done much. This guy was in the league. This guy's a D1 athlete. Just let him go. He doesn't need to balance a book. Is tearing bite by bite off a roll and buttering each individual, is that actually the proper way to do it? Because what the hell? That's what I was taught.

That's weird. That's what I was taught and I don't abide by that. But, yes. That was stupid. As someone who's best friends with Colton, I have never had an issue with his manners. Not once. I could tell you this. That's not how we eat bread in Italy.

Ah, va bene. We taught the world how to eat. Hey, don't forget Will's never been, so. I sent an email to somebody who has been eliminated from the show, and I'm a little upset that she never responded. It was Demi. Name names. Demi.

Wanted to get her in. Thought it was going to be easy because she lives in the general realm, and I could imagine her being in Austin at some point. She just didn't even respond. Like, we're a small to mid-sized podcast. How do you not respond to that? That's weird. But the reason I brought this up

is because I'm currently on Hannah G's Instagram. We need to work on the branding of these people. Her contact email on her Instagram is just hannahg1758 at gmail.com. What are you doing with that? That's a bad email address. What happened that year? Yeah, right?

That was before our independence and stuff. Like, shit. Maybe Demi will see just our high leverage negotiations with ESPN top tier guys. It's true. Be like, I got to get on this now. Ground floor. Like, get in now.

Dan Patrick still hasn't read my email, so we're good on that front. I've been trying to get on this now. Ground floor. Like, get in now. Dan Patrick still hasn't read my email, so we're good on that front. I've been trying to get Bob Costas. Yeah? He seems like more of a free agent than ever right now. Yeah, I said, dude, you can talk about whatever you want to talk about. Yeah, if you want to talk about CTE, you can do that on our podcast. That's fine. But you gotta

talk about, like, Miatas and shit, too. I'm not a big Costas guy, but... That's fair. I don't have anything personal against him but he he's not i think all in all this was a pretty average hometown date episode there was yeah we didn't we didn't have any like really crazy interactions or anything hannah g's mom was a big bummer was the best ever jojo's like when they, whoever her season was, when they went back and met her brothers? Yeah.

That was like the best, right? It was tight. Because her brothers were just... Ben Higgins. Yeah. See, I didn't watch that season. He's got the worst haircut in America currently. Yep.

Yes, he does. So next week we have Fantasy Suites, right? Our boy Colton. I'm not going to spoil it, but he handles it unprecedentedly. Is that saying that the right way? Okay. Is that why he jumps? Does he freak out?

We'll see. According to my source, anyway. Did he jump? Never mind. What? Maybe he didn't. Never mind. I'm sorry.

What, Dave? It's so stupid I can't even put it into words what I'm going to say. Never mind. I was impressed by his athletic ability jumping that. Yeah. He scaled that wall like a... Well, he was an all-American

college football player. I believe. Seeing him on this show, does it kind of make sense how he didn't make it in the league? He seems like he's too much of a nice guy. Like he's too sensitive. He's too much of a sweetheart.

Yeah, but there are guys who can turn it on when it's game time and just flip a switch. You think he's got that switch? Like Sage Northcott? There are plenty of overly nice guys in professional sports. Sage. Sage is example 1A. He told us right at the table that he could beat the shit out of one of us

if he wanted to right there. He didn't even have to tell us. And he said it with a smile on his face. I was like, you're like this nicest, like the bubbliest guy I've ever met. How can you fight somebody? And he goes,

oh, it's no problem. All right, man. So yeah, I could beat this dude's ass right now. And he looked you up and down and he said, it's really no problem, bitch. I was like, I don't want any smoke, Sage.

I'm just here to interview you, man. Would you rather step into an octagon with Sage Northcutt, and it's a fight to the death. You have to fight Sage to the death, or a full-grown cheetah? Well, the cheetah I could handle, but Sage, I might take my chances and like talking him out of killing me no like he's gonna no he's like i'm a big fan to the death dylan like

don't kill me you know let's just talk this out and we'll both walk out of here yeah like let's just let's just split it but i will obviously have a much better chance of surviving that fight against a cheetah. Wow. Definite. Okay. Okay. You know what time it is. This weekend of fun. Presented, of course, by Ice and Howers on Rainy Street. Let's go. Live music on Sundays,

live music on Thursdays. You're probably going to catch us there during the Southwest Southwest. More info to come on that. I have not been to the Thursday night boy band yet, but I saw somebody's Instagram story the other night who did. You want to go? It was incredible looking. Was it a lituation? Yes.

It was really good. Our Fridays are pretty open. Let's go. I know. I can't this week, but I will commit to next week. Fine. You stupid dick. Sorry, man. I got shit. You don't have anything. Your boy got stuff? He's got to go buy you like fucking candles man. I got shit. You don't have anything. Your boy got stuff? He's gotta go buy you, like, fucking candles or new towels or shit.

Oh, man. You are one soft little baby. If you're in Austin, Texas, whether it's for a boys weekend, whether it's for a bachelorette party, whether it's for just visiting this great city, take a pit stop at Eisenhower's and see what it's all about. You're gonna hit rainy.

You may as well. They got cold beers. They got great cocktails. They have their own cocktail menu, and I saw several ordered off of it two weekends ago when I was there, and they all looked very good. And they also have the hangover cure of the sangria, which will get you right back on that track.

It puts you right back where you need to be. I usually start these things, kick them off. Do you mind if I get mine out of the way? Get it. I have an excellent weekend coming up. Wow. First of all, Friday, I have nothing. Who would have thought? Which I'm just absolutely... So what you're saying is that we're going to end up going to Matt's all-round show. I'm over the moon

about Friday, because I have nothing going on. That's how I like to have my Fridays. Saturday, I am playing in my annual golf tournament that I do every year. You guys have seen me wear that white hat with the little goat on it. That's the tournament that I'm playing in. It's all my day one high school friends. We get together a lot.

Is that where you're getting the facial so you don't look like an old? You're getting a facial because you're going to see your boys. It's a scramble format, and it's the kind of deal where you pay up front, and you show up, and they give you all kinds of swag. And it includes all your alcohol, so you have beer carts just running nonstop. Is my dude Eugene playing? Eugene's playing.

I see Eugene every two years. Shouts to Eugene. Yeah, Eugene, he's on my team. We're going to have the best time. Is he a player? He's pretty decent, yeah. No, he just crushes a lot. He's to Eugene. Yeah, Eugene, he's on my team. We're going to have the best time. Is he a player? He's pretty decent, yeah. No, he just crashes a lot. He's pretty decent.

Okay. He's beat me a bunch. I beat him a bunch. Big Pond reference? Is he dead? Yeah. My friend Eugene is very much alive. Yeah, Big Pond is dead.

I can't wait. Sunday's wide open. I don't know. Might hit Eisenhower's. Where is this course? What course is it? We're playing Falcon Head. Oh, yeah. Which is a fun one. I know Falcon know. Might hit Eisenhower's. Where is this course? What course is it? We're playing Falcon Head. Oh, yeah.

Which is a fun one. I know Falcon Head. It might be a little cloudy. We've had a charity golf tournament at Falcon Head before. Yeah, that was the one where Micah weirdly just drove around in a car and didn't play. No, he just walked. He walked. That was the one.

Even weirder. That was the one. We were playing it, and as we were on the course. Y'all got hacked. The TFM Snapchat got hacked. The TFM account got hacked. The TFM account got hacked. No, it was Instagram. And the Snapchat.

Oh, really? I don't know how they did it but they got in and they started promoting some like Hoverboards. Yeah, hoverboard. And Ross was like screaming into the camera like

Do not buy hoverboards! Yeah, he was blacked out posting. It was weird. Didn't I stone cold some beers on a teabox? Yeah, it was like the 13 teabox

pouring rain outside and you stone cold of beers. Which wasabox yeah it was like the 13 teabox pouring rain outside and you stone cold of beers which was actually a great move that was fun then we went to Ranch 616

for dinner that night and Ross sat down and ordered a quesadilla because all of his money was tied up in sports bets and then then after somebody ordered like a steak

he goes wait is this on Grand X and then he just ordered the most expensive thing on the menu he ordered the steak with crab on it yeah it's a great move unbelievable i love it man that is a solid move dave what are you doing this weekend i have no plans friday i'm assuming we'll have

something going uh i'm getting out on the course friday during the day at some point whether it's just to bang some balls uh i don't know or just get out there and peacock a little bit in my row back. Maybe I'll be doing that. But Saturday, I don't know what I'm going to be doing. My brother-in-law is. You know what they say. It's for your good friends. Saturday is for your good friends. I will be maybe hanging out with my brother-in-law.

He is coming in town. He's my age. I graduated high school with my brother-in-law. A lot of people don't know that. Wow. There's a podcast meetup for a podcast he listens to it's called a no agenda podcast and they're doing an austin meetup and he's a big fan of this pod and he's coming in to to go to it i don't know if i'm gonna go to that with him go to the meetup uh it's i've listened to the podcast it's interesting but i found it was hard for me to get into.

But then again, look at this podcast. I find it hard to believe that any podcast would be more difficult than this one to get into. Very true. Like I've always said, there's a loading phase, five to seven days, much like creatine. So it's pretty wide open. If there's a tee time, I'm in. If Sunday we want to hit Eisenhower's, I'm in. If Sunday we want to hit Eisenhauer's, I'm in. Wow.

Yeah. I'm pretty excited about it. You want my weekend? I'd love it. Well, Friday night, there's been talk. I don't really know if I want to do it. There's been talk about going out to Sally's parents' house. They have a hot tub, chilling in the hot tub.

It's a drive, though. And I don't know if I want to do that on a friday night so we'll see um saturday morning you know your boys got that man you game to watch it's gonna be fucking lit we didn't know that first thing in the morning 9 a.m and then uh saturday i don't really have much to do during the day uh i've been craving pizza lately i'll be honest I have not had pizza in 2019. Well, that's stupid. Think about that. Think about it. I don't want to.

You could hit Jets. I think... My new favorite pizza. I think I'm going to go like insufferable hipster pizza on Saturday night. Or at least lobby to. And then... What does that entail? Bufalina.

Okay. It's not insufferable. It's a great pizza. It's my favorite pizza. And so then on Sunday, I'm very, very wide open. Sally is working, which means your boy can do whatever he wants. And I think I might try to maybe go swing some golf clubs. We'll see.

Got some new Callaway wedges that I would like to go pin hunting with. Wow. Man, the face he just made. Big time. That's it. That's it.
