All right, we're back circling back podcast presented by busy hard seltzer. The only hard seltzer with vitamin C and superfruit acerola. My name's Will DeFreeze. To my right, David Carter. Bro. Why? Yeah. This office just got a little bit cooler. Did you see who just walked in the door?

I know you did. I saw you throwing eyes over there. What you didn't see is him throw a deuce at KJ as he walked in. That's what's up. Ladies and gentlemen, cool Adam. That's what's up. Ladies and gentlemen, cool Adam. That's what's up. I'm doing the sandwich orders. On Mondays, one of the perks of Washed Media is we do thundercloud subs, free pub for them.

Don't give them free pub, dude. Free sub. Most mediocre sub in Austin. It's a good sub. It's not a great sub. It's a fine sub. Everybody knows that, Will. It's the most mediocre sub in Austin.

Stop. I'm not saying it's bad. I'm saying it's mediocre. Okay. It's not a great sub. It's a fine sub. Everybody knows that, Will. It's the most mediocre sub in all of them. Stop. I'm not saying it's bad. I'm saying it's mediocre. Okay. It's better than Subway. That should be their slogan. Better than Subway. So early on with the interns, first when we started doing this, I would be like, do y'all want anything? And they would just throw out,

yeah, give me the Italian, give me the club. And that was it. Whatever comes on it. But now they're getting a little comfortable, and now they're doing custom orders. Well, can I read the squad's sandwich orders? I'm not eating a sandwich today because I have some lunch at home that I'm going to eat. But Brett's getting a small Italian on wheat with no peppers and no tomato.

That's kind of embarrassing for him. By the way, the peppers there are one of the best things they do. They have the sweet peppers, and they're so good. You know, when I hear someone order an Italian sub with no peppers, my first reaction is just, oh, hey, hey, oh. It's freaking gay. Hey. Intern Timo, he's getting a small Italian with everything,

which Dave noted should be called the Joe Pesci. Yeah, Dave did note it, but somebody got all the glory in the group text. Hey, you got to be quick. You got multiple ha-has. I know. I told you I was doing it, though, because you weren't going to pull a trick on that joke in the group text. You got to be quick. I said, I said. You got multiple ha-has. I know. I told you I was doing it, though, because you weren't going to pull trig on that joke in the group chat. When are you going to do mine?

Multiple ha-has. KJ got a thick Italian. He's always been a fan. Wait, was that a joke or is that real? What? He wants, like, the Italian? He wants a thick Italian. I'm trying to think of, like, a thick Italian actress we could.

Dylan's getting a large office favorite on Wheat with No Onion. Can you explain to the people at home what an office favorite is? I would love to. Because a thick Italian actress. Dylan's getting a large office favorite on wheat with no onion. Can you explain to the people at home what an office favorite is? I would love to, thank you. Because it's certainly not you. It's a favorite around the office. An office favorite is an egg salad and bacon sandwich that comes with cheese, lettuce, tomato. Weird Randy's going with a large Turkish delight with no sprouts and hummus. Like, okay, dude.

These sprouts are low-key dope, man. You should have left those on. I agree. Even though I told him before I pulled Trigg that, like, I had that sandwich two weeks ago, not great. Not a great. Their hummus, you would be shocked to learn that the hummus at Thundercloud is just okay.

Just some sabra slathered on there. Not fit for Dylan's Super Bowl party. Yeah. You can't eat. That has to be on. That's on sandwich hum. Yeah. You can't eat that. That has to be on. That's on sandwich hummus only. You can't eat that. Just raw.

What? Don't call it raw. You don't say raw. I like it raw. Hummus? What do you mean by that? Dude, shut up. What do you mean by that?

Intern Adam's getting a club. Sick. His club sandwich can't even handle him right now. God. Man, you came in here. You were, I don't want to say down bad, but you were low energy, not really feeling it. Then that intro you gave Dave, like, that was electric, man. You're a pro.

A real pro. You're not going to get the same one. He just flipped a switch, dog. It's called being a consummate professional. How do you do it, man? That's what I do. You should write a book on this stuff. I should.

Do a TED Talk, maybe. Ooh. Girl boss. My name's not Ted unfortunately will boss will talk welcome to my will talk hey has have people stopped uh making really lame statements on twitter and then saying thank you for attending my ted talk is that is that done um i've probably done that thankfully i haven't seen it recently that's good it's bad that's how you took a very mediocre tweet and tried to dress it up as, like, an acceptable tweet. Yeah. What about this one?

Say something that's, like, their opinion about something and, like, that's it. That's the tweet. No, dude, stop. Stop. That's it. That's it. That's the tweet. That's the tweet.

Time out. Stop. That's the tweet. Okay, guys, hold on. Asking for a friend. What if you've done those tweets before? Again, asking for a friend. What they say, it's not even controversial.

It's not a hot opinion. It's just like, you know, chips are good. That's it. That's the tweet. Kettle cook chips, man, are the best. That's it. That's the tweet. No, but during election season, it's like, I think everyone should have health care.

That's it. That's the tweet. It's like, wow. Dylan's always said the opposite. Thank you for changing everyone's mindset regarding that. Dave, stop. There's one thing I've learned about Dylan. He just hates health care in general.

He doesn't like it. That's the tweet, man. He doesn't like it. You know what? I'll go out on a limb. That's the tweet. I'm going to say it. That's so bad.

I'm going to say it, you guys, and you don't want me to and you edit this out if you want i don't give a damn whoa our health care system's broken wow thank you david mash my music thank you thank you for inviting us to your ted talk that's the tweet man hashtag dave boss you know who else we got in the building today? Mr. Electric Factory himself, Dylan. Hello, everyone. Takey McTakerson over here. We lost steam halfway through that intro. Takey McTakeface. Hello, everybody.

Very happy to be here. And it is podcast week, by the way. I don't know if you mentioned that yet. I didn't think we were doing that anymore. I pulled it up on the Cali. I was like, oh, shit, it's here. Might as well talk about it. Podcast week. I thought we got a cease and desist. We weren't allowed

to say that anymore. From who? Micah? No, a big podcast company that trademarked it. Micah invented it. Podcast week. Yeah, it was Micah's. It was MWBK Ventures. They trademarked it. That's his company. Is there not a podcast day? There's a day for everything else.

No, there is. What's today? There's a day for everything else. No, there is. What's today? There's probably like Randall Day. What's today? Is today? It's September 30th, International Podcast Day. Really? Yep. Fantastic.

Today's International Violently Hungover Video Guy Day. It's interesting. It's very specific. Yeah. Well, it's new. Luckily, we have someone that's celebrating that today. I think we're going to hear from him later in this episode. I've never seen someone down so bad as Randy.

How old is Randy? 26? He's 21. As of last week. Biologically? His birthday is April 9th. We know that. Do we?

We know that. How old are you, Randy? 27. I was going to say between 24 and 27. I really didn't know. He's 27. He's older than Brett. No one talks about that.

He's sneaky older than Brett. Sneaky older than Brett, yeah. Very cool. Very cool. Very cool. And he likes Turkish Delights, apparently. That's right. We're a decade apart.

Now I remember. Ten years. Yeah, that's what a decade is. Ten years. Thank you. That's the tweet. Thank you. That's it.

That's it. Hey, hot take incoming. Everyone prepare. Brace yourselves. That's so stupid. No one's ever had a good tweet that ends with, that's it, that's the tweet. No one's ever done that. Unpopular opinion, colon, and then like a pretty bland opinion about something.

Why do you hate colons? I don't dislike colons, really. I don't really have feelings toward colons, Dave. I'm searching, that's it, that's the tweet on Twitter. Yeah. And I'm going to see what the best one is. That's it. I'm scared that I have one out there that's just like, that's a really bad tweet that I used it on.

Some of these I don't know if I could mock. Oh, who's James McAvoy, Will? Is he a soccer, a footballer? No, he's a very famous, he's a very famous actor. Come on, dude. It says James McAvoy playing football. That's it.

That's the tweet. And there's one of him, and he's doing an awkward pose, and I don't like it. John Duda on August 22, 2019 tweeted, the only thing more epic than the Avengers are guys who reply to viral tweets with, you, sir, when the internet today. And then I responded to him.

This is the only occurrence of this on my timeline. I just responded with quotes. That's it. That's the tweet. Wow. So at least the one time I said this, I was making fun of it and I wasn't actually trying to come out and say, that's it. That's the tweet.

These are so lame. I think Dylan's done it. I think Dylan's done it and not told us. I promise you I haven't. I promise you. Are you sure? Unless someone hacked me and tweeted that lame shit, I promise you I didn't. You know what, Dylan?

I'm proud to report that you have never said that's the tweet. Thank you. That's the tweet, though. Dude, that's it. What was the thing we went back and looked at on your timeline last week? It was about Big Bang Theory. The show. The show.

Not the hypothesis. Right. Which I think has legs. The actual theory. No legs involved. More gases. Sure. Sure.

That's fair. Katy Perry and latex. That's it. That's the tweet. Ooh. Swing. That's a hot take. What's she up to? Hard to it. That's the tweet. Ooh, swing. That's a hot take. What's she up to? Hard to say.

She's doing fine. I mean, I'm sure she's got money, but I just haven't seen any new materials. Don't worry about Katie. I'm not worried about her. I am worried about her. Why? Why are you worried about her? Did Taylor Swift come out with a 10-minute song? No, she actually was performing in Madison Square Garden and had Wanda Sykes come out and perform a Radiohead song.

Did she have a 10-minute song? I don't know. People were talking about it. How do you not know? I don't know. I only listen to like three songs off Folklore at this point. I'm so tired of you trying to sandbag your Taylor Swift fandom. No, what i'm

saying is that the only the only songs i listen to not the only taylor swift songs the only songs i listen to at this point are like three songs off folklore okay it's sad i still only listen to 1989 it's her best album easily no cap that's it that's the tweet okay 1989's taylor swift's best album that's that's that's the tweet randy cut that that's a hot take put that on 1989 wow you calling a shot viral can we get some official biz out of the way sure go follow circling back pot and watch media on the grom on the talk on the twitter anywhere you can find this just go follow it. It just needs to happen. We've been climbing the ranks of Twitter

followers lately. No one's adding Twitter followers at this point in life. I feel like no one's actually adding followers. Dude, that's such facts. Why is that? The only accounts that are adding followers are things like Ladies and Gentlemen of the Weekend. You go from zero to a million real quick, but no one else is just steadily growing.

That's lame. The getting was good back in the early 2015. The too much dip Twitter account was on the rise, and then somebody yesterday did a tweet, and they forgot to include the NBA playoffs in the tweet, and now they're losing. I also forgot to include, that's it, that's the tweet. That's true. Which is probably why I didn't do so well. Yeah, now we're losing.

Was it you who did that? I tweeted that, yeah. Remember I asked you for the password? That was mine. You is probably why I didn't do so well. Yeah, now we're losing. Was it you who did that? I tweeted that, yeah. Remember I asked you for the password. That was mine. You did it. You tweeted it two hours later. I forgot. I know.

I had a crazy busy day, dog. Oh, yeah. I was doing Father's Day stuff. You know how that shit goes, dude. I do. Dude, can you save it for this weekend in fondue? That's the tweet, though. What's the problem?

Go leave a review in Five Star Radio. You guys want to hear a couple of reviews we've gotten recently? Yeah. Some dude named Clavadier said, all dads should listen. Just three dads talking about everyday dad stuff. When frat daddies become real daddies, that is circling back.

Couldn't recommend enough. Dude, that's you. You're Mr. Frat. Dave was King Frat, though. No, no, no. You were God-tier frat. You were king of all the frats. You were always saying, I'm God-tier frat.

I didn't say that. Someone said Caleb was wrong. Said, my friends Caleb and Trevor were discussing podcasts, and this one got brought up. Caleb talked about how boring and annoying it is, but Trevor defended its honor. Gave it a listen, and I have to say, Trevor was correct. Loved the pod. Not sure what Caleb's deal is. Hey, Caleb, guess what?

Don't care. You're my jerk of the week. You want to hear something really embarrassing? What? Caleb spells his name with a K. Dude, what are you doing? Dude, if my name was Caleb with a K, I'd be mad at everybody, too. I would, too.

Yeah. I would, too. Yeah, dude. We also have Roosh's Theorem that said, what is circling back? He said, circling back is Paul Scholes' April 28, 2008 banger. Do you guys know at all? Have you ever heard the name Paul Scholes before, Dylan? No.

He sounds like he was a right winger on an old Habs team. I was hoping you were going to say a soccer team, and I was going to say you're not that far off. No. It said it's a crop of painstakingly maintained petunias by a mysterious gardener snake. It may even be a pre-workout tune-in to find out. Wow.

Dylan, how is your video doing? My video, it stalled big time. It did? Yeah, I don't know why. I thought the thing was heat. It's evergreen, it's heat, it's your video doing? My video, it stalled big time. It did? Yeah, I don't know why. I thought the thing was heat. It's evergreen. It's heat. It's funny.

You know what thought I had at the gym? I go to the gym sometimes. For what? I like to lift weights. With what? Not your arms. No, no. I do exclusive.

I do legs only. If you've seen me, you know that. I was thinking, like, there's a good chance that someone's going to recognize one of us from that video in this gym there's somebody there's people in that gym that are into gym tiktok oh for sure someone's going to come up to you and be like dude you've already been asked if you're the rowdy gentleman the original rowdy gentleman you were asked that as you were fully nude changing um it's nice someone's going to ask you if you're the pre-workout guy. Are you Mr. Pre? Lil' Pre, is that you?

Yeah, it's me, Lil' Pre. I'm Lil' Pre. Jermaine Dupree over here. Okay. That's right. I'm not doing Jermaine Dupree. When you walked in the studio this morning, you had two deuces in the air, and you said it's pre-season.

Stop. I know. That's what I thought, too. That's it. That's the tweet, dog. You know what the last review before we go on to the next announcement? Snackbar1717 said it's great with his morning bowl of corn. He said, I literally can't have my morning bowl of corn without listening to this pod.

I can't have my morning bowl of pod without listening to corn. True. Who does a morning bowl of corn? Dude, Snackbar1717. Cornfl, maybe? This sounds like this guy's got the life.

The limited edition pack was created in partnership with the Human Rights Campaign. Ever heard of that? I have. Vizzy's more than just a hard seltzer with antioxidant vitamin C, though it does have antioxidant vitamin C for those wondering.

Vizzy celebrates inclusion and has donated $1 million to the Human Rights Campaign over three years to support their fight for LGBTQ plus equality. There are plenty of hard seltzers to choose from with bold and delicious dual fruit flavors, antioxidant vitamin C, and LGBTQ plus equality.

Watermelon lemonade. Watermelon lemonade. Watermelon lemonade. I don't like sing-songy Will right now. Watermelon super fruit. It's a super fruit. Super fruit. We're in the... It's super fruity.

We're in the midst of busy season. We've lost control. The seltzer has never been harder. It's the hardest seltzer, in my opinion. It goes the hardest, that's for sure. It's a super fruit. You know what? I'll tell you right now, I had three of those Vizzies this weekend.

It's a super fruit, David. Don't you understand? The peach lemonade has become number one atop the power rankings in the rough household. For my money, it's watermelon lemonade. I like watermelon, too. I will fight you over it if I have to. That seems unnecessary. I like watermelon too. I'll fight you over it if I have to. That seems unnecessary. I know.

Thank you for asking, Will. I had kind of a fantastic weekend, actually. Oh, it must be nice, dude. Yeah. It must be really nice. Yeah. Friday, had a little friend lunch, actually. Peacock downtown.

You hear of this place? Mediterranean. I watched some of the U.S. Open on there. Very good food. Hard to find. Hummus. Had a little champagne. There are big hummus people there.

Yeah, their hummus slaps, so yeah. Really? Is it raw? I don't even know. Dude, do you want to host your Super Bowl party there? That might be expensive. I don't even think No. Dude, do you want to host your Super Bowl party there? That might be expensive. I don't even think they have TVs in there. Yeah, a little champagne is a fun little lunch situation.

I don't really know if I care for high society, Dylan. Later on that evening... Glitz and glamour, chivalry. Later on that evening, I went to a... The world is his catwalk right now. A birthday celebration, a celebrash, we call it. A party for Lily. Who's that?

Friend of the show. Oh, my sister-in-law. Your sister-in-law. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot about that party. She had a themed birthday party. Is it okay to say what the theme was? No, no, don't, dude.

Oh, no. You're going to tank her brand. Well, I can't do so without revealing her age. That's why. Oh, that's fair. You know what I mean? I think if you have a custom cake at your birthday party that's fair. You know what I mean? Yeah. I think if you have a custom cake at your birthday party that says the age, you're allowed to say it.

She turned 30, so the theme was like RIP my 20s. It was like funeral attire, funeral themed. We all wore black. We're murdered out, Dave. No one's talking about the fact that your 30s are much doper than your 20s. I've been saying that for a long time. You stay saying that. No one wanted to listen to me.

You would say that. Yeah. My 30s have been sick. been saying that for a long time. You stay saying that. No one wanted to listen to me. You would say that. Yeah. My 30s have been sick. It stinks that yours are almost done. That's not a good comeback. What's your problem, dog? Got him.

Got him. If you're new to the pod, Dylan is significantly older than everyone here. I don't even remember what I did Saturday. What did I do? Did I do anything?

I hung out with Parks. I got Parks. We chilled. Oh, I met up with Dave and Serena and Alyssa and Rhodes. We shared a pint and a pizza roll. Dave got a whole ass pizza, though. I got a whole ass all. He left some there.

Well, it is bad. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Sunday was, by the way, let me be the first to say happy Father's Day to you two lads. Your first one. It's a big one. Also, my brother-in-law's first one. So happy Father's Day to Kendall as well.

Hey, congratulations to you. Thanks, man. As an uncle. I appreciate it. Oh, yeah. Thank you. Don't forget about the uncles on Father's Day. They met my old man for the first time.

So it was a big Father's Day, a big day for everybody. It was a great time. National Uncle's Day is creeping up. July 26th. Hmm. And that includes, or concludes, I should say, my weekend in fun. Wow.

Look at you. That's it. That's the weekend. That's it. That's the tweet. Dude, I was D-deep into some primetime golf. D? Thursday through Sunday. Grow up, dude.

U.S. Open. Dave deep. The sports yesterday were phenomenal. The sprats were good. You were texting yesterday like, man, I'm not even really watching anything. I'm watching Gone Girl or some shit. That movie's kind of good. It kind of slaps. It's a good movie.

Except when he delivers the Gone Girl lines. Like, what are you doing? Remember that? No. It is. It kind of slaps. It's a good movie. Except when he delivers the Gone Girl lines. Like, what are you doing? Remember that? No. It was super cringe. Don't remember that. Does he, like, look at the camera and say it? Hey, girl, you're gone.

It's my weekend of fun, so stop. Yeah. Yeah, you don't have to take the weekend over, dude. The sports feel good, though. No, I actually spent most of my weekend trying to navigate Randy's undercloud order, figure out if he wants hummus or not. Yeah, it's just hard to say. On his Turkish delight.

Yeah, I met up with Dylan, interned Serena. Was she ever, like, who did she? How did she get the name interned Serena? Because I think she was interning for RBP and Oyster Clams and Cockles. I was going to say. And Resol Motor Functions. I think that was her rotation. She was never an intern directly for us. Okay.

Yeah. Well, I enjoyed some Zal with her. Rhodes got out, mixed it up. Parks. Parks and I. Parks wanted to show me. What is that game Parks plays? It's like the freakiest thing I've ever seen. Oh, it's like Five Nights at Freddy's, I think it's called.

I can't even explain what it is. I felt bad because he wanted me to play, but I was trying to have conversation with the adults. And he showed me a little bit of it, and it's like you're wearing a rabbit mask, and it's in the dark, and you have a flashlight. I hope I don't learn that that game is actually problematic. It's like a furry game?

It looks, from what I can tell, it's innocent enough, but it is pretty creepy. From the two minutes I watched it, it seemed a little bit frightening for me as a child, but everybody knows I frighten easily. You're the spooky season guy. I know. Dude, I was molded by it. Stop. That's so stupid.

Do it. buy it stop that's so stupid do it that's pretty much all i did oh father's day was lovely i had chicken strips for dinner per my request i was so excited she air fried those things or what nope we we uh we went to a really really really exclusive chicken joint, Bush's Chicken. I love fried chicken. I love chicken. And, man, had too many sauces, man. I was over-sauced. Had the gravy. Did you get lost in it?

I ended up, listen to this, guys. You're not going to believe what I did. I ordered mashed potatoes. I was actually dipping the chicken strips in the mashed potatoes. Are you fucking kidding me? Yeah. You're wild, man. I know, man.

It's pretty crazy. Now, this is epic. I don't care, man. Jeez. And I went to Home Depot a few times. My father's day was very- You always love to have to go a few times to Home Depot. You never go once.

Unless you're pulling it. What about the pipeline? Please hit the pipeline.

888-618-4422. And that's pretty much my weekend. I don't know. I did some tweets. Dude, that's sick. I tweeted. What about you, Will? Dude, it was a big one for your boy.

You guys ready for this? Dude, it was a big one for your boy. You guys ready for this? Dude, I went to that same party with Dylan, and people were wondering if I got faded up at that party, and I got breaking news. You got a haircut at the party? Okay. God damn it, dude. No, they didn't have a barber there.

You said you got faded up. I didn't get faded up. You got twisted. I was actually the designated driver, which was really sick. Were you really? Yeah. Dude, Saturday night, I was the designated drinker. Oh, got him. You weren't twisted?

I wasn't twisted, unfortunately. You did text me late night. What did I text you about? The young man who was at the party that is a friend of ours from Colorado. Friend of a friend oh yeah yeah yeah oh yeah you told me about the two young ladies that he met at the bar and brought to said party yeah it got wild I was unfortunately uh the designated driver for the party not unfortunately I wanted I wanted everyone to get home safe so I I kept him in the tank that night and uh yeah on Saturday

your boy hit the town I went and I went and did something no one's doing. Do you even know what a camp collar shirt is, Dylan? Because I bought a camp collar shirt the other day. I think I do. I think it's wide, and it kind of opens a lot, and it has the pointy collar, right? Mm-hmm. I believe it's similar to the Milano. Am I onto something here? Am I kind of right?

Yeah. Let's fucking go. Look at you, Mr. Club Cool. Bear would be so proud. Yeah, I got a camp collar shirt. I've been looking for a statement shirt to get some fits off for this summer. Can you pull it off, though? I can.

So I actually wore it Saturday night. I had a nice little man date on Saturday night. Not a mask man date or anything like that. It was more of a man space date. And, yeah, we went to the hottest restaurant in town. Sammy's. What'd you get? Hottest Italian in town.

Didn't they call you the hottest Italian in town for a little bit? I heard they had good tube steak. Did you get that? I didn't get the tube steak. We did get some mozzarella sticks, which I have to say, highly recommend the mozzarella sticks. No one was expecting us to get that. I did the Micah Weiner special where if octopus is on the menu, you order the octopus.

What a ridiculous rule to have. So I went with my sister-in-law's boyfriend and we split a Caesar salad together. That was quite cute. And then he mashed that chicken parm button. He went chicky-chicky parm parm on the homies.

Don't ever say that again. And then I had to do something that no one's doing because they were out of the lasagna. How do you run out of lasagna? Yeah, you can't do that. Must be pretty good. Although a lot of people got upset that I said lasagna is just not my favorite Italian food. But dude, I saw a picture of it and I was like, I think

I have to try the lasagna here. Did they do like the Fusion Texas thing where it's like bison? No. Or put some brisket lasagna? No. This place is trying to be New York in Austin. They're doing everything they can to be like you're this little New York Italian haunt. Okay. How authentic are we talking? It was pretty authentical. Who's working the front? I didn't even get to say what I got to do. Oh, the guy working the front is all time. You walk in and immediately he sets the tone. It's like, okay, we're legit right now. It's legitness.

I got Bucatini. Call me the Bucatini boy. Bucatini Carbonara. I have to say, I married someone who actually makes a damn good Carbonara. This was a little different than her Carbonara, but both are equally pretty good.

Damn. I know. And then and then yeah father's day i did i did what you always want to do on father's day and that's just do whatever your kid wants to do what did he get you him he didn't get me anything unfortunately okay i got a card from rhodes and randy really they co-signed did she put some ink ink on Randy's paw and then? Yeah, just tracked it all over the house, ruined the rugs. It's perfect. That's always what you want. Yeah. And then I would just watch sports, dude. I did get to miss the final six holes of the U.S. Open,

which is always what you're looking for. You didn't miss much, man. Yeah, it looked like nothing happened, which was sick. But I did close the night out watching a little UT baseball, unfortunately, Dylan. That was a tough one, man. They made it interesting in that bottom of the ninth.

They did. It was looking good, but nothing happened. And that, my friends, was my weekend in fun. That's fun. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, you heard about this Babbel? Yeah. Uh, yeah. This summer, get the most out of your travels abroad by learning the language of your destination with Babbel, the number one selling language learning app. From ordering in restaurants or asking directions to getting a deeper understanding of the culture,

Babbel makes the whole process of learning a new language addictively fun and easy. And with bite-sized lessons you can actually use in the real world, Babbel is a can't-miss travel essential. I've downloaded the app. I have activated my membership, my subscription, and I have to say I'm actually doing what they're saying. I don't know if I've told you guys this yet, but I'm actually going to Mexico this fall. Oh, Mexico. Yes, and I am brushing up on some of my

Spanish. As everyone knows, I took about 12 years of Spanish and cannot speak a lick of it at this point in my life. And so I thought it'd be good to brush up on. And I have to say, their 15 minute lessons are the perfect way to make a new language easy to learn on the go. Being adequate in a second language is so useful, man. It is. It is so useful.

It is. And unlike the other infamous language classes you took in high school, Babbel designs the courses with a practical, real-world conversations in mind. Things that you get to use in everyday life, if you want to know where the banyo is. That's bathroom. You're learning a lot. They go way past that, dude. It's all just real-life conversational stuff. They've got it all. They've got 14 different languages, including Spanish, French, Italian, German. They even have speech recognition technology that helps you improve your pronunciation and accent.

I found that as somebody who took a little bit of Italian, wanted to brush back up on it, it had been over a decade since I'd done anything with it. This helped me get back into it. Not that I'm out at my house speaking it, but I'm planning a trip to Italy sometime next year, potentially. And I'd like to be able to converse with the... Will still hasn't been there. You should take him.

Actually... It's actually Will and I going. Actually, some breaking news. We have a friend getting married in Italy next fall, and I will be going to Italy. Wow. Very excited. I think I'm going to have to learn...

I think I'm going to have to get on Babbel right before the trip or months leading up to it and learn a little bit. You can mash that Babbel button. I feel fine going to some countries. If I go to Mexico, I can use some of my Spanish to get around, but I need to learn a little bit about Italian languages if I'm rolling in there. I can't just go in blind.

Nah. There are so many ways to learn with Babbel. In addition to lessons, you can access podcast games, video stories, even live classes. Right now, when you purchase a three month Babbel subscription, you'll get an additional three months free. That's six months for the price of three. Just go to Babbel.com and use promo code STEAM. That's B-A-B-B-E-L.com, code STEAM, for an extra three months free.

Dave. Hey. I'm told you have an anecdote that you'd like to share with the people. Would you like to share it with the class? It says right here, Dave anecdote. It does. Yeah. It does.

I always like when Dave's like, hey, I have an anecdote. Yeah, dude. It was everything I could do to not share this wild story. Are you out on potatoes or something now? Baked potatoes? All right. Couldn't get to your anecdote. I'm sorry.

What's your story, dog? Yeah, I want you to guess. Go ahead. No, I was driving home yesterday from some errands. Had to go to the old house, get some stuff. Who's Aaron? Is that a friend we haven't met yet? Is it E-R-I-N?

Aaron Franklin. Have you heard of him? I was waiting six hours for his brisket. They're closed right now, aren't they? Are they? Hard to say. Tough. Tough scene.

We'll never know. I think they're opening back up. That's breaking news. Say that for Brett's breaking news, please. Okay. I think they're opening back up. That's breaking news. Say that for Brett's breaking news, please.

Driving down the road to get to my home. Were you chilling on a dirt road before you started driving down it? Dude, this is actually a paved road. Oh, bummer. Yeah. Weird. The city covers it and pays for it and everything. I hear something hit my car, and it sounded like a water balloon.

Something hit my car, a projectile. And I'm like, look at like look at i'm like did some kids just pull some shenanigans did i just get did i just get you know did you just get daved yeah the day yeah you just got daved i was thinking like i got daved and that's fine i probably deserve it you ended up hitting a civilian right Well, no, actually way worse. I look in my rearview mirror. Oh, no. And there is a, what appears to be a bird. You smoked it. That flew into the side of my car. Was it a fit bird?

In the middle of the road. It's a two lane. And I was like, oh, man. I was like, man, that sounds kind of heavy. Was it dead meat? Turned around. I was like, I just want to go. Maybe I need to put it out of its misery or something I was gonna melt the mouth I was gonna pull out the AK and just you know put one of the dome put it out of its misery you

travel with an AK-47 no Anthony Kim was riding with me he was on the TL this weekend it was teammate yeah T-man loves anything yeah of course as most people should. He's got to be one of your favorite Sooners. What kind of bird was it? Sure. So, Will, I drive by and I notice that's not like a grackle or something. It was a big boy. It was an owl. Shut up. It was a baby owl.

You got to be careful. They're smart as hell. They're going to come after you. No, listen, listen. I go. I turn onto one of the streets and I'm like, in my head, I'm like, okay. Because it's moving. And I'm like, man, I got to get it out of the road at least.

I don't know. But then I'm like, do I need to go home and get my gardener gloves? Because I don't want to pick this. It wasn't a big owl. That's why I say it was a baby. It was probably like eight inches tall. Still. Those garden gloves that we were talking about the other day dude my swag garden gloves i ended up not copying unfortunately sorry dave i've got some why didn't you just see

it to your gardener snake well i was there's cars driving by and i'm like waving at him to like slow down and i'm like i dialed 3-1-1 because I panicked and I was like what is there like I thought about going on next door and being like this is kind of a cute this is like low-key accused story well I didn't want it to it was an owl and like I know it's weird assigning like value to like animals based upon their weird but it's an owl and I was like man so I'm like all right I'm just gonna run out there and if this thing talons me then at least I got a good story. Hopefully it doesn't do like nerve damage in my hand or something. So I'm going to go pick this thing up and go just move it off to the grass

and to the wooded area to the side of the road. And luckily, I think he saw me. He flew off. He was, wow. He or she, they, flew off. And as far as far as i know recovered you said baby owl how big was this little sucker again eight like seven to eight inches oh little little fella little yeah but it was like clearly stunned because it was like it got up and i could see it like you know doing that a little concussion maybe you know baby owls are called owlets right sure you just knew that yeah no one googled that yeah they're like normally they're

called owlets or nestlings they hatch three to five weeks after the eggs are laid depending on the species my hooves my hooves like nocturnal that was a list is like why was it flying around during the day and i was like that's a great question. It was just wiling, dude. Yeah, it flew right into the side of my car. Just totally kamikaze to my face. That's so cool. I mean, not that it flew in your car, but owls are just cool birds, man. I thought so, too.

And I was happy when it flew off because I was like, dude, this is going to be a whole thing. What three of them wanted to say? Were they just like, dog? They didn't. It was a recording. And I was like, this isn't going to get me anywhere. Yeah, that's a non-emergency line. But Austin's is different, and I feel like it, I don't know.

What's the most killed animal by vehicles in Texas? Squirrels. Oh, yeah, squirrels. It's by far squirrels in northern Michigan. In my neighborhood, it's frogs. There are hundreds of them on the street. One night, it was raining. I think I talked about this. I was driving home, and I saw a bunch of them on the street. One night it was raining. I was driving.

I think I talked about this. I was driving home and I saw a bunch of them like crossing the road. I was like, this is not going to end well for a lot of these. I mean, there were...

Why didn't you get out and save them? I saw tens of them. Dave would have stopped on the road and held everybody up. In my neighborhood. Like, no, frogs crossing.

I would have been the sign guy. Two days later, I take Stella on a walk and I start noticing that they are just splattered all over the street. Okay, don't say splattered. They were Two days later, I take Stella on a walk, and I start noticing that they are just splattered all over the streets. Okay, don't say splattered. They were little frog pancakes, man.

Stella was trying to eat them. It was a whole scene. Oh, Rosie tried to eat a toad the other night. Not great. Really? Not great. Did it fire like a red shell at her? I don't know.

I had to grab it out of her mouth and throw it. Was it a toad stool, Will? Yeah. Rosie and I were doing psychedelic psychedelic mushrooms together that's sick yeah do you remember how will people came at will with pitchforks because he called toad toadstool like six years ago remember i called yoshi yogi i do remember that was hilariously dumb because i'm a dumb dumb yogi i'm sorry man i was a yosh dog though people got mad at me on twitter this weekend for saying that they moved our reservation back from 1130 to 945.

And I was just like, what? Do you guys not have more time? They were like, they actually moved it forward. Shut up. Hey, I got a question. Shut up. What are you going to do with that midnight reservation? So that's how we got the reservation.

How late do they open? They do late night reservations. And so that's the, it's, it's the, it's the hottest restaurant in town. And so we decided to just take that. And,

uh, my sister-in-law apparently did not want to stay up that late to do it. And so he was like, let's go have a boy's dinner at like 1130 and just get weird with it. And I was like, okay, let's do it. And then they called earlier in the day and they were like,

Hey, we got, we can fit you in at nine 45. What was Saturday? Yeah. It was for the boys. Everyone knows that. Yeah. Um, I still late you in at 945. Well, it was Saturday. Yeah, it was for the boys. Everyone knows that. Yeah.

That's still a late dinner, man. Yeah, I got out of there around 1 a.m. It was great. Hey, shout out to the guy in the Dodge Ram who, as I'm trying to slow down traffic, just blew by me. Love that. Well, it's truck month. I was like, okay. Yeah, and I let it slide, but I'm just like, okay.

You should have kept it. You should have domesticated the owl. I think owls are dope. How far can they turn their head? Some of them 360 degrees. No one knows. Why would you have to go 360, though? You only really need 180.

It just keeps spinning. It's like my rims. It's attached, man. I got spinners. Did I tell you all that? You got spinners for Father's Day. Spree wheels? Yeah.

They're spinning right now as we speak. That's pretty cool. No one's doing collabos with owls on the streets these days. I'm glad that you're pioneering. I was so happy to see him fly off because I was just like, dude, this is going to be the next six hours of my day. My Father's Day is going to be rescuing this owl that's probably not going to make it anyway. The mascot of my elementary school. Shouts to Doss.

Doss Owls. Let's go. Our elementary school is called Blackbird. Shouts to all the birds out there. Wow. Especially the black ones. That's pretty sick. Shouts to my grackles.

What was your elementary school mascot? Huskies. The Hastings Huskies. Really? That's lame, dude. I don't think that's lame. Okay, yeah, I guess dogs are lame now. Yeah, I guess Huskies are like a lame breed in Dylan's eyes.

If anybody wants to adopt Stella from the guy who thinks dogs are lame, email Dylan at washmedia.com. Noah, I wonder if this gets me an invite to Bohemian Grove. I don't know what Bohemian Grove is. Yeah, that's lost on me as well. The boho grove? Yeah. That's sick, though, you know. Yeah, that's lost on me as well. The Boho Grove? Yeah. That's sick, though, you know?

Yeah, that's my anecdote. It's a cool anecdote. It was okay. Clip that. It's cool, man. Did you guys hear that? Again, no. I don't.

I certainly don't. Oh, what? Oh, shit. We haven't heard this noise in a long time. Be careful. Be careful. David, get over here. Oh, come on, man. Y haven't heard this noise in a long time. Be careful. Be careful. David, get over here. Oh, come on, man.

Y'all do this. God, just painting that ass red. We're not supposed to bully. Somebody's about to steam on something. You hear about this fucking Austin FC team? Wow. Oh, shit. What's their problem?

Wait, what'd they do? Okay. Besides lose, I'm assuming. So the hottest ticket in town this weekend in Austin is going to the Austin FC game. Did they win? What's your problem? Their home opener? Did they?

They had a thrilling 0-0 draw. What a ripoff. Wait, it was a draw? It was a draw, yeah. What a ripoff. It was a draw. 0-0. Cool.

So nothing happened. So, I mean, everyone knows. I'm a footy boy. Footy. Soccer is a sport that I enjoy watching. Yeah, Tim Howard comes on my podcast. That's just what we do. Yeah, dude, we heard all about that, man.

That's sick. So, like, I'm all excited. I'm like, you know what? I'm going to watch this game. I'm going to watch our first home game. I'm going to support the boys. Can I say real quick? Yeah, go ahead.

As a soccer hater in Austin FC, not fired-upper, that stadium is kind of dope. Yeah. It looks nice. They did a good job. I'd love to go to a game. Okay, continue. Did you refer to yourself as a soccer not-fired-upper? Yeah, he did.

Okay. No, soccer hater, Austin FC. Like, I kind of want, you know. You should embrace the team a little bit. I'm not fired-upper? Yeah, he did. Okay. No, soccer hater. Austin FC, like, I kind of want, you know. You should embrace the team a little bit. I'm not fired up about them. I'm not telling you that you should watch every game or anything like that, but I think you should embrace the team a little bit. It is kind of cool that we finally, we as in Austin, has a team, even though it is fucking soccer.

Anyway, some people are fired uppers About it Including me And I'm like Oh man this is gonna be great I'm gonna watch this game Before our dinner Like 9.45 The game starts at 8 It's the perfect amount of time

To watch the entire game Before we go off To a nice dinner together And what happens You can't watch the fucking game You can't It's impossible They made it impossible

To watch the game We got to see The tweets though There's some viral tweets. McConaughey out there just... You know what fucking channel this game was on? Are you ready for this? You'd think the major market, Austin, Texas,

you'd think it'd be on a national televised thing. ESPN, maybe? I don't know about major market. I don't know about major market. Please. It's like a top 20 market. For MLS, you... For MLS...

MLS should have their new teams at the forefront. Dude, but they were playing the Quake. I mean, whatever. San Jose versus Austin. Guess what channel they put it on. The CW Austin. The CW. What's your...

Do you not have that? Cable provider or streaming service. Oh, I'm a YouTube TVer as well. Well, as you might have found out if you were trying to find the game, yeah, the CW Austin doesn't exist on YouTube TV. So what did I do? I asked relatives for their login for their cable providers. Nothing. Tried to go

online. I found, I ended up going on the Austin FC Twitter feed because it says that you can like watch the game on there somehow. They had no tweets that led you to where you can watch the game on there somehow. They had no tweets that led you to where you can watch the game on there. I finally found it on some app called TUDN. I don't know what it stands for.

It's Spanish speaking. It looked like a Twitch stream of the worst quality possible on my screen. It froze about 20 seconds. A lot of people are doing well on Twitch though. It can't be that bad. Enough people that I knew were there. Did Barrett go? Was DJ Duds there? A lot of people are doing well on Twitch, though, so it can't be that bad. That's cool. Enough people that I knew were there, so I just got to watch the entire game on Instagram stories.

Was DJ Duds there? I don't know if DJ Duds went. I feel like he's got, like, equity in the team. What's up with McConaughey just banging on the drum? He was just beating the living tar out of that freaking drum. Is McConaughey just, like, getting a little too much? He's just everywhere. I like him more doing this than I do

his involvement with Texas sports. Because Texas sports, I don't I feel like most of the athletes, they don't really care. They're like, okay dude, like you're Oh, I think they do. I think they roll their eyes at him. He's like a legitimate movie star.

He hangs out with them on the sidelines. Like, that's cool as a college kid. He's 40 years older than them. Did you see his ponytail this weekend? It was terrible. It was gross. It was gross. It was gross.

Like, just cut it off, dude. He looks like he hustles people at, like, a pool hall. Yes. And his suit looked like something out of, like, a Joker movie. Yeah. It's like, hey, Joaquin, can I borrow your fucking suit for the Austin FC game? Joaquin and Phoenix. Yeah fucking suit for the austin fc game joaquin and phoenix yeah sons and four right yeah it all comes together wow i think cat pat described uh mcconaughey's fit as like randy couldn't find a suit for a wedding so he just

got one from like a costume store or something or he knitted one out of his green screen at home yes that was it he did it out of his green screen at home. Yes, that was it. He did it out of his green screen. Actually, that was the most accurate take I saw about McConaughey the entire day. Yeah, he's doing a lot. What's up with his hair? Aside from the ponytail, the length is not great right now. He might be preparing for an upcoming role. He might.

Sure. Isn't he doing uh failure to launch too is that him i'm sure you should know i'm sure they're running that back you would know i'm sure i think they got the original cast too so they're getting bradley cooper back in the mix terry bradshaw oh god terry bradshaw dude he killed it he got a golden globe for that bradley cooper's in failure to launch yeah is that where he got to start i think it was one of his earlier films yeah i don't he he hadn't hit the uh he hadn't hit the wave of like the hangover and stuff yet even even when he showed

up on wedding crashers none of us knew who he was i just thought oh that's a hot dude. He's a sack. Yeah, he's a sack man. He's a sack man. You doing a scat man reference? Yeah. Why do you know that? Yeah, how do you know that? I don't. Old ass. I don't know that. Wee, ba-ba-ba-da-bo.

Oh, I know that one. He's a sack man. No, you don't. There's no way. Yeah, I do. Yeah, I do. Do you even know what E-Bomb's World is? Oh, my God.

I do know what E-Bomb's World is, yeah. It's like a place for funny shit on the internet. You're just a LiveLeak guy, though. Dude, LiveLeak got canceled. There's no more LiveLeak. Thank God. No, you LiveLeak more than anybody in content out. You were known as the LiveLeak guy at Grand X.

No, I would go there looking for funny videos. Exactly. And I would click on some dude getting in a head-on collision on a motorcycle and then pieces him all over the highway. Like an owl flying into a guy? Yeah, I was going to say, you showed me a cool video of a jeep running into an owl the other day.

The owl ran into me! Sure. You can't say that. What, are you going to tell the cops that? Eh. He deserved it. He ran into me. Yeah, I ran into a man. Yeah, that's how I deserved it. He deserved it. He ran into me. Yeah, fly off there, Al.

Oh, my gosh. I ain't talking. So what's your steam? Just in general. You want it to be easier to watch sporting events, and guess what?

Why is it easier for me to watch every single English game as opposed to one MLS game in my new hometown? Because MLS stinks. No, but it's not just MLS. You realize that a large portion of Mavericks fans in the Dallas-Fort Worth area could not watch Mavericks games because of a dispute between, it was previously Fox Sports Southwest, now it's Bally's, and whatever. Something the Mavericks really have no control over.

But like, so people are having like a legally streamed Mavericks games. Some dude who lives in like Seagoville came and watched the Lads. That's the issue with Texas in general. There's too many teams here. It's because we have our own grid. People get blacked out all the time. Very frat. Sick.

Randy does. Everyone gets blacked out at these games and markets where we're not actually even in. You can't watch certain Astros games in Austin because it's like we're technically their market. The TV contracts are out of control and that's my take. Don't you

side with the cable providers? I heard you're rolling around with an AT&T box in your car. Dylan fancies himself a cable provider. Dude, I just hate when there's a new show or something on. I have to do my homework on where to actually find the damn show. You have to Google? I do.

Where can I watch Ted Lasso? I'm like, oh, I need to know how to fucking work Apple TV. How have you been like Ted Lasso? Why are you having so much trouble? You've been enjoying Ted Lasso? I can't watch Ted Lasso on my bedroom TV because it's Sony. I couldn't find the Apple app. Oh, my Samsung has the Apple app.

I know. I have to watch it in my living room. Bummer. What the hell? Samsung recently added a Peacock app to their television. Hey, that's for your boy. What I just said, that's bullshit, right? That I can't watch it in my bedroom because I have a Sony TV in there?

You could probably watch it on your phone and stream it to your TV. It will not recognize it. Dude, you should. Well, they won't connect to my TV. Dylan, I have a flash drive with some of these shows. It's bullshit. I think each of us should get. I just fell into a steam.

One of us gets Randy and the other two get the other two video interns. And they are dedicated to making sure we can watch whatever we want to watch at all times. That shit's infuriating. If I can't watch MLS, I'm calling Timo and being like, hey, you've got to figure this out for me. I need Timo to come over and just hide the wires and stuff. I think that's above his pay grade. Gosh. Or below his pay grade.

Whatever it is. Dude, it's a great experience. It's invaluable. I just want to watch Ted Lasso. It stimulates the economy. Hurts nobody. You want to mount a TV with me? Yeah, bitch.

In my guest room? Yeah, bitch. All right. I have a drill you can use. That's what I do. All right. You don't think I've got a drill? I have a drill.

Yeah, yours is like a black and decker. It actually is a black and decker. It's not a good drill. It's okay. It does its job. Mine's a DeWalt, dog. Oh, you do have a DeWalt? Jesse!

Can I circle back to Dave's weekend and fun? I'd rather you not. I was pricing lawnmowers. I love that. Is it lame if I get a battery-powered lawnmower? No, they're kind of hot right now. And they're surprisingly affordable. God, we're so old.

They're kind of hot. Dude, they're hot, but like, okay, here's the thing. Here's where they get you, Will. They have a 30-minute runtime on, Will. They have the battery. They have some that have like a 30-minute run time on the battery. They have like up to like 70. Wait, hold on. Are you steaming right now about battery power?

No, I'm not. I'm just kind of just laying out the foundation for the segment. I think you're steaming. What's the deal? I feel like with the gas-powered one, you have to tune it up before every season. Yeah. Every time it gets hot again, like, oh, I got a spark plug working. The gas is old in there, and you get the oil change and all that dumb shit. Yeah, I don't want to do any of that.

I just want to plug it in and pop it off the charger. You guys want to hear a very fortuitous thing during this Steam Room segment? I guess my complaints were heard because I just got an offer to go to the Austin FC game on Sunday. With who? Who offered? I'm not a liberty to discuss. Oh, what? Why do I care?

Matthew McConaughey. Is it cool, Adam? Is it intern Adam? You may or may not play Warzone with this person. He may or may not drop in the bank every single time. Oh, is it Hot Colin? Yeah. He's going with our friend Zach.

We'll see. Hot Colin. You guys might see me in the Verde section. That's green for those people. Cool, at least it won't be hot or anything. Are you going shirtless? Are you going to paint your chest? I'll go shirtless right now.

It's all indoors, right? So the heat won't be a factor in any capacity. Stop. Why are you trying to ruin my experience? No, no, no. I'm not. Cool, after this segment, I'll know how to watch it at home. Can we talk about public rec real quick?

I thought you'd never ask. As you all know, we talk about Dylan's fits a lot, and I feel bad about it because the length is never really right on his pants and stuff like that. He wears these sweats outside of the house that I wouldn't be caught dead in. And for him, I get it. It's frustrating to have to change to go out and get coffee or walk the dog and stuff like that. Did they send you that copy? Yeah. His old sweats used to drag and his heel would be stepping on them.

And they would just have all this gunk on them. They'd be soaking wet at the bottom. I still remember that. They used to call you sopping wet jogger guy. I know. It was weird. And your pockets didn't even have zippers, dude. Okay.

Like, what's up? But that's why you got to check out Public Rec, Dylan. They make leisure wear and waist and inseam sizes because comfort starts with a better fit. Do you want to hear a true story about Public Rec? I do. I was at the gym. I go to the gym, clearly. Dave was there, and he was wearing his new Public Rec shorts.

And he goes, hey, these are my favorite shorts now. That a that's a factual that's a dave anecdote we didn't get to hear about yet did i did i tell you about the trainer who came out to me he was like you've been putting in some work man you're looking low-key thick in those public rec shorts like do you want to be a trainer here and like start training people and i'm like no my part of what i just said is actually actually it happened it's facts. Dave made that second part up. Dave's toting a wagon now. You sure you don't want to train people? I'm like, no, I don't have time.

It wouldn't make sense for the gym, like someone who works there, to sexualize you that way, you know, objectify you. That's fine. It's bad for biz. When you pull up in the public rec, Dave's toting a wagon. Well, yeah, we rock with the shorts because the shorts rock with us. And everyone knows that. But, I mean, I think I need to talk about their best-selling all-day every pants. They're more of a

stylish alternative sweatpants and more comfortable alternative jeans. You get these jeans sometimes. They're just stiff. You have to break them in. It's just a lot. You put these things on right away and you're like, oh, man, these are the most comfortable pants I've ever worn. I'm not trying to wear stiff pants. These are made from breathable, stretchy, moisture-wicking

fabric. You wear them 24-7. They look brand new. They also have zipper pockets, Dylan, so no more having your phone or wallet fall out. Like, that always happens to you. That has been a big problem for me. Well, I do, like, cartwheels and shit all the time. That's true. I see my shit falls out.

That's true. They also come in nine different colors, one for each day of the week and then some. Plus, they've got incredibly comfortable shorts, T-shirts, Henleys, polos. Henleys, Dylan. Hoodies, jackets, even golf gear. And they just launched their women's line. So now if you're listening, you can enjoy the public rest. Game-changing fabric in their wardrobe.

Let's go. You thought it was the same old game, but it's not, Dylan. The game's unchanged, Dave. Yeah. You know me. Whether I'm running errands, grabbing a coffee, going to work remotely, whatever, these are the top choice in my rotation. They fit so well.

They just look like they were tailored to me. Yeah. They're not sloppy at all. I never knew you could look this good in sweats, but here I am just thriving. That's it. That's the tweet. These are the pants. Okay.

Sheesh. As the world's opening back up, make sure you've got the clothes that are as flexible as your life. Public Rec rarely discounts, but right now they have an exclusive offer just for Circling Back listeners. Go to publicrec.com slash circlingback to get 10% off. That's publicrec.com slash circlingback for 10% off. We're going to do something special right now. You sure you want to do this? Some people might think it might, this could sound like a worst weekend story just because

of the voice that you're about to hear on here. We've got our down bad employee of the week. His name's Randy Trumbacki. Randy, welcome to the program. DBR. Hey, how's it going? Randy, you were kind of trending on Twitter yesterday because you arrived at the airport after a bachelor party in Nashville, and you had Jared, a.k.a. J-Bone, a.k.a. J-Bone, he picked you up from the airport. Did you not have a car at the airport or something? No, I, in fact, did have my car at the airport.

Oh, you were struggling. Oh, my gosh. What's happening? So why did J-Bone have to come get you at the airport? Did he Uber to the airport? No, actually, him and his girlfriend were getting done with a weekend, and they were driving back to Austin, so she dropped him off at the airport. That worked out well timing-wise for you.

Well, no, I told him that I would pay for all of his Ubers if he came and drove me home in my own car. Why couldn't you get behind the wheel? I just didn't feel like it would be a responsible thing to do. Was it anxiety? Was it how you felt physically or all of the above? I felt like I was about to pass out in the airport, so I was like, I probably shouldn't drive right now. Sheesh.

Okay. Had you ever gone to Nashville before this? Yes, for New Year's two years ago. If you had to give this a grade, if you had to give Nashville a grade in terms of cities for bachelor parties, what grade do you give it? I'll give it an A. It's a great place, as you can clearly tell.

It's the bachelorette party capital of the world at this point. I mean, it has to be. Randy told me, I don't know, within the last few weeks, he's like, I'm just not going to drink anymore. My hangover's been brutal. And then all of a sudden, I see J-Bone picking him up from the airport, and he's just absolutely brutal. Can you confirm reports that you were seen at Kid Rock's steakhouse?

Yes, and I figured out that it's only a steakhouse because of COVID. It was a bar, and then they did that so they could stay open. A loophole. A steakhouse. Love that. Good for them. Grilling the most. But, yes, I was at Kid Rock's.

The fact that they didn't call it grilling the most makes no sense. Maybe it's because they pan fry them. Pan frying the most doesn't really have the same legs. Randy, what did your Saturday look like? Yeah, what did you do on this party? Which led to your Sunday being so down bad? It was just mainly drinking on the rooftop at the Airbnb and then going out

to the bars and just continuing to drink a lot. What time did you get home? Or to your hotel or Airbnb? I don't remember. I don't know. Did you drink at the airport? No. No. No.

I had a Caesar salad. That was about it. Oh. That's so sad. That's the original sad salad. You should have had exactly one beer on Sunday. Yeah, did you think about doing the old hair of the dog? No, I was hair of the dog all week.

I don't think that's how it works. Just momentum drinking. Shampoo effect, Dave. People forget about the shampoo effect. What establishments did you hit? You see, I don't know because they're all the same bar. I know Tootsie's for sure.

It's one of the worst places to get an Uber because everything's called Honky Tonk so you don't know where your actual Uber is. I know Kid Rock. Did anyone call you out for having a Honky Tonk Badonkadonk? He did it. He did it.

No. No one did. Your bodacious booty didn't make waves in Nashville this weekend? No one did. I did see some backers. Bodacious booties are a dime a dozen there. True. That's true.

Shout out to the dude who gave us the t-shirts. Yeah, Stevie G. Well, gave Dylan and I the t-shirts. Big shout out to Stevie G who gave t-shirts to literally everyone in the office but me. Really cool. Dude. Get that off. Get that off the screen.

Dude, these are huge. No. Catch me in Music City just throwing hands. Just beating that heavy bag up. Like, this dude knows how to throw hands. I hope their heavy bag's ready. Dude, give me the speed bag. I enjoyed Internet Party.

Brad was pissed that his gym got got some new equipment but they got a heavy bag like that was their upgrade through covid i feel like that's like a staple in many gyms like this is your upgrade they're like they're like 150 plus 50 to mount they didn't they up do this price one of these before clearly yeah yeah i mean i have dave's the boxing guy i'm the canelo guy boxing but Dave's the boxing guy. I'm in on Canelo. I'll say it. Wow.

Randy, when's the next time you have an alcoholic drink? Unfortunately, probably Sunday when I go to Vegas for my dad's 70th. Oh, I forgot you were doing this. Odd you'll have a Vizzy. Yeah, odd you'll have a Vizzy during too much dip today. Right now? One in a million. Love that. Damn.

I mean... I felt for you, man, because traveling when you feel that way is... that's tough. It really is. And it being Sunday and everything lined up to it being just a terrible experience. Did you blow chunks? Oh, yeah. Oh, you did? Well, not at the airport.

Did you have any Nashville hot chicken? No. That's good, at least. What? That would be tough coming up. What was the best meal you had in Nashville? I don't even know if we really had a meal. Did you most? You ate a meal.

No wonder you don't feel good. Randy, the number one thing that you have to do is eat before you drink. It was just like all appetizers and stuff and like finger food all weekend did you most okay we all want to know no i did not most you just um we did y'all do where was like the nice bachelor party meal or did y'all do that i guess we never went out to dinner or anything oh fuck did anyone i will never eat a top golf you went to nashville went to top golf yeah did you were you striping it? Dude.

You brought your own clubs, right? Yeah. That was actually the first time I swung a club in like three years. And I was like top of a group, so, you know, pretty natural athlete. I thought the other weekend you told me that you were swinging at the club real hard. No, that was something else. Gross, Randy. You perv.

You'd get in trouble for that. Yeah, but fun place. It's the same thing. It's just awesome. It's awesome. Those bars are massive, Randy. You perv. You'd get in trouble for that. Yeah, but Fun Place. It's the same thing. It's just awesome. It's awesome. Those bars are massive, though. They're like five levels. They have like four stages.

It's crazy. Levels, dude. There are levels to it, man. I heard zombies so many times that week. Zombie. Zombie. You don't have to sing it. People are familiar with it.

How many times did you do the sheesh? Hitting your head. Too many times. Is that why your voice is so bad. How many times did you do the sheesh? It's in your head. Too many times. Is that why your voice is so bad? You're just walking around going, sheesh. I got some sheesh's back. I heard. I can't even do it right now.

Give us your best sheesh. Sheesh. Oh, no. Oh, my God. Oh, no. Randy. Oh, that was not good, Randy. That's tough.

Any truth to Nickelback bringing out Dave Chappelle to sing Zombie? Yeah, that happened at Kid Rock's bar. Can you imagine? What are the odds? Not good. Can you imagine Dave Chappelle walking into Kid Rock's bar? Yeah, it probably is going to happen. Why does Kid Rock have a presence in Nashville?

Because he's king of country music. Do you know the answer? You're the Kid Rock guy. I'm no longer the Kid Rock guy right now. He's the bull god. We got to calm down on Kid Rock right now. He's been doing some unsavory things, Dylan. Right.

Like his entire career was unsavory. Shut up, dude. Devil's got to cause hit. I don't know. I think he just embraced that culture. Probably did a lot of recording there. His upbringing in very, very modest, growing up in a trailer park, and by trailer park I mean his parents' multi-million dollar home, just lent himself to country music.

I see. He does think of Nashville as his second home. It's good, baby. That's my Kid Rock. That was good. He sounds like a Muppet singing Kid Rock. It's good, baby. That's my Kid Rock. That was good. He sounds like a Muppet singing Kid Rock. It's good, baby. Rock.

Really good. Kid Rock. Randy, any parting words regarding Nashville? You get the chance to go. Go to Nashville. That's it. All right, man. Here we go.

The new. It's like Dan promoting. Face of Nashville. The Department of Tourism has just hired Randy. Oh, Randy. Sup, dog? Go to Nashville. Is Brett doing the news?

Yeah, I texted him, but he apparently didn't hear. No, he's right here. I'll also say shout out to the two backers that said hi to me. One guy was just in a truck and flagged me down. Hey, Dylan, when you left the party for a little bit, you had a little intermission during Lily's party. Yeah. I FaceTimed with a backer.

Did you? Yeah, it was really sick. That is cool. Yeah, his sister was at the party, and she was like, my brother loves you, y'all's podcast. That's cool. Yeah. Shouts to JT.

JTism. Oh, yeah, JT. It wasn't Justin Thomas. We got some breaking news. Hey. And you know what that breaking news is? What are you doing? It's Brett's breaking news.

Oh, the first one. Is this the pizza robot? It's the pizza robot, Dylan. Let's go. It's the pizza robot, Dylan. Did Randy just say the nice restaurant they went to on a Nashville bachelor party was Topgolf? Correct. Did you call it Nashville?

Nashville's good. Dude, Nashville might have legs. Correct. Did you call it Nashville? Nashville's good. Dude, Nashville might have legs. Man, I don't know how I feel about going to Topgolf. We have Topgolf here, you know?

You know what I'm saying? Anyway. Randy goes there and fires up the apps. It's Nashville. Is Nashville Austin-lite or is Austin Nashville-lite? I think Austin is Nashville-lite Because Nashville has a bigger music scene, obviously Even though Austin is like the live music capital of the world It's really not That's bullshit, right?

Yeah, it's total bullshit There's much more live music in Nashville Yeah, but it's not good Austin probably has a broader bar scene But Broadway in Nashville is like It puts Dirty to shame But there's more to Dooley in Austin like bar scene, but Broadway in Nashville is like, it's, it puts, it puts dirty to shame, but there's more to do in Austin.

Like you have the option with the, the lake slash river. Yeah. I'm thinking nightlife right now. Can you paddleboard in Nashville? There probably is water there. So yeah. Nope.

Okay. I don't know. So I was talking to Austin robots, please. Have you seen these pizza things on South Congress? I've just seen coverage of them. Dave's doing the robot. Dude, you're really good at it, too.

Somebody's going to gift that. No, don't. No, not at all. Ten silver robots shaped like ice cream carts are delivering Southside flying pizza to hungry Austinites in Travis Heights and the Central Business District. Is it, by hungry, does it mean like people that are going without food, or does it mean like, oh, I'm hungry, it's time for pizza? It's actually Hungarian residents.

Oh, okay. That makes sense. The company behind- Shout out to them and their victory over France, as I learned from Will earlier. Well, I mean, technically they tied, but- Oh, damn it. Them tying that game was a victory. That's what I meant. Very earlier. Well, I mean, technically they tied, but then tying that game was a victory. That's what I meant.

Very cool. The coverage I saw on Twitter said, hungry wins, France ties. So that barn burner of an Austin FC game that ended in 0-0. We're not talking about that anymore. Just to the draw. Will couldn't watch. Anyway, so. I couldn't watch no goals being scored.

I was devastated. This company's training their robots to deliver pizza, which I think is a good idea. It should be drones. I don't know why you would spend money on a robot. It's just inevitably going to run into the middle of South Congress and get teed up by a Dodge Ram or something like that. Like someone on a Lime scooter.

Correct. Or just runs into my Jeep. It's the most Austin way to injure yourself, running your Lime scooter into the pizza robots on South Congress. Yeah. Potentially. And at this point, they still drive around with an attendant. So it's just some dude on a Lime Scooter following the robot around in a big yellow school bus.

I think I hate Austin. Yeah. What if when these things are falling on their own, what's going to keep someone from stealing it or hijacking it, breaking into it, stealing the pizza? I think it's probably locked. It looks like a pretty hefty situation. It's like the modern-day train heist. It's a za heist. You just see someone backing up a trailer and loading this thing on it

and getting the hell out of there with a pizza and a robot. Kind of sick. But stealing, which is not cool. I don't know if I'd – It's like a $12 pizza. I don't think you need to steal it that bad. You just get your own. Pizza is bae. True.

Ooh. You know what? This is putting people out of work. No, but Dylan, steel base is not bae, dude. Weren't you a pizza delivery guy? They're taking our jerbs. I was a sandwich artist. They're taking our jerbs, David.

There's a fucking difference, Brett. I know. I couldn't remember. Taking our jerbs? I know Randy delivered sandwiches. I know Dave sandwich artist. They're taking our jerbs, David. There's a fucking difference, Brett. I know. I couldn't remember. I know Randy delivered sandwiches. I know Dave built sandwiches. I didn't know if anybody delivered pizza. There's a lot of people. They need income.

They deliver pizzas. I just put it in the pizza. Put it in the pizza. Shut up, dude. Dave, you want to hear about the chicken economy? I thought you'd never ask. There's a chicken wind shortage. Everybody knows that.

But here's the flip side. the chicken economy? I thought you'd never ask. There's a chicken wing shortage. Everybody knows that. Okay. But here's the clip side. This chain wants you to start eating chicken thighs. Little bit of chicken thigh. Chicken thighs. Was that a race to the joke? It was.

Happens frequently. Chicken wing prices are going through the roof, so Wingstop, a chain known for wings, is selling chicken thighs. Dude, I'm a fan of chicken thighs. They have rebranded digitally to call their brand ThighStop, a chain known for wings, is selling chicken thighs. Dude, I'm a fan of chicken thighs. They have rebranded digitally to call their brand ThighStop.

Okay, there's a joke here, and I'm not going to make it. Would you like to, Dylan? I just want to get past it. ThighStop? Yep. Nah. What's cool Adam doing? He was just doing a dance that I think I would describe as a Gen Z dance that you do on TikTok,

and I tried to get a recording of him, but he unfortunately stopped doing it before I could get my phone up and do it. Was he doing the robot? He was doing the robot, maybe. This paragraph is entitled, America's Appetite for White Meat. The bulk of America's chicken exports are made up of dark meat, including thighs. This is David Anderson, a livestock economist at Texas A&M.

Boo. Nice job, Notch. No one's doing thigh stop. There's nothing wrong with dark meat, of course. Plenty of people prefer the flavor, but Americans prefer white meat, including breasts and wings because of restaurant trends, Anderson said. What do you prefer, Dylan? I'm a dark meat guy. I am too. I always have.

I am too. I am too. Really? Yeah. On Thanksgiving at least. Oh, hundo pee. Hundo pee. Do not catch me having white meat on my plate. I will throw it against the wall if you put it on my plate. I don't know why you would dream that. You better douse it in gravy.

Someone's mom worked hard on that turkey and you're just going to throw the meat at the wall? That turkey had its head cut off. She will make that mistake twice. Remind me to not invite you to my parents' Thanksgiving celebration. Nancy would never put white meat on my plate. What are you going to do with the white meat? Do you just let it go to waste then? No, I let the other people eat it.

I actually just put it in my Vitamix and put it in my smoothie. That is disgusting. That's absolutely disgusting. Well, you can't waste the protein. I feel like the best way to eat the white meat is to slice it real thin after the fact and then make sandwiches out of it. I don't think there's any other way you can go about doing it. Isn't there that new crypto that's coming out on Thanksgiving?

What's it called? Cryptofan? Yeah, I think it might be. That's actually good. That's not bad. That's not bad at all. That's going to exist, unfortunately. Put you to sleep, though.

Can we buy it now? What are the little tiny shitoshis called for that? Turtles? Little Turks. Turkoshis? Turkoshis. You guys are the last bit of breaking news here. You guys all know fajitas pretty well, I presume.

Yeah. Have you ever heard of shredded cheese? Because it's the only way that we can eat our fajitas. Dude, we invented taking that bit and running with it. Well, a Houston-based Tex-Mex eatery specializing in fresh fajitas is getting all up in Austin's grill. Who is it? Are you ready? They can't throw hands?

Fajita Pete's. Oh, that's a downer. Yeah, I thought it was going to be LT, and then I saw Fajita Pete's, and I was like, oh. Yeah, I've always said that Pete makes the best, most authentic fajitas. Thank you, Pete. Fajita Pete's, the fast-growing fajita franchise. Whoa. Fast-growing fajita franchise that was founded in Houston.

A lot of Fs. Now boasts 21 locations and 54 more in development. The first one is coming to Balcones Drive in RM2222. Call it Balcones, but it's okay. You know, I didn't know that. It's pronounced balcony. That's vintage Dylan right there. This motherfucker says Houston Street in New York.

Only real New Yorkers will understand why you don't do that, Brett and I, because we did an episode on it for Sunday Scaries. Go listen, Dan. Find out where Brett gets his bagels in New York City. Sick. The reason I included it, not only because of the fetus Dave has to pee. I am sorry. I want to talk to Michael Blaylock.

He is the franchisee here. Blaylock, an entrepreneur with a background in running small to mid-sized businesses. Okay, I can appreciate that. Said, we're coming. It was literally teed up too well, so I had to include it. Wow. Yeah.

Fajita Pete's. I'll give it a try. I'll try it. Okay. Okay. I'll try it. You know your boy likes fajitas. It's going to be like fast casual fajitas.

To this day, I don't know if there's a fast casual fajita spot out there specifically specializing in fajitas. There's another Houston restaurant that I'm going to have a free plug to. This is an unsolicited recommendation, which KJ noted we have not done in a long time. It's called Local Foods. They have a sandwich pop-up shop happening in Austin right now. I love it. Go check it out. Real talk? Where is it? Big facts. No clue where the pop-up shop happening in Austin right now. I love it. Go check it out, Don. Realtor?

Where is it? Big facts. No clue where the pop-up is. Just Google it. Okay. If they can make a full-time thing happen over here and we can bring a little Houston to the Austin area, I would be very happy. I mean, fajita pizza is fine, but like. I'll fucks with it.

Shots of local foods. Why doesn't LT give it a try? Why don't they give it a go? They're scared of Matt's, dude. The fajita wars are on. Matt's, there'll be a ton of spillover traffic, no matter, you know. It's like, you know what? I'm not going to wait two hours.

Plus, the food at LT is better than Matt's. Absolutely. Big facts. Triple facts. Super facts. Turbo facts. Super facts. Hey.

Is it time? I was going to do the whole menu But we can skip that Bye
