All Ranchos, Maddo Ranchos, Maddo Ranchos, Maddo Ranchos. All right, we're back. Circling Back podcast. Monday morning. 2026. This is our year, dude. Uh, producer Randy looking good. Oh, God.

Happy 2026, David. Oh, wee. It's a visual show. Go to YouTube and watch it if you're not already. He's, uh, did you do some celebrating? We'll get to that in a bit. You're not going to wear there's a whole show, are you? I might.

These are from Patron. They sent me a bottle of Al Alto. What? Uh, and they sent me some party favors, which were these 20, 26 glasses that I'm not wearing. You got to take that next trip, Dave. It's the gift that keeps on giving. You've got to take that next trip.

Dude, the Jojo Sewa crew sent me some stuff. Did they? You see she changed her name on TikTok to Joelle Sewa? She's all growns up. It's because she realized there's already a Jojo in town. And let's just say this internet ain't big enough for the both of them. We're team original Jojo for the record. but okay i mean i don't follow either of them on any platform i unfollowed the original jojo

back in the day i was like it's still it's weird that i still follow i tried to set her up with dylan one time which would have required her cheating on jordan rogers would have been good for the show oh man it's a really big bummer that erring rogers is probably done dude i like this sucks they won oh they did yeah i don't i didn't i don't care about the i don't care about the NFL at all it was a pretty sick game yeah it's tough seen. Did it hurt your feelings a little, or did you get a little, I posted that photo of us at the Lions Cowboys came from a few years back. Never once did I even think about watching NFL football yesterday. I wish I didn't. The Bears. Even flow. That video that is, um, someone decided to put

that song to and it's, it's, it's, comes around on Easter. It's Jesus leaving the tomb. He's skating. on a skateboard and just hitting six jumps yeah just hitting to the tune of even flow he does a christ there he does a christ there he just called a teapose that's what it's called in the animation and video game world yeah um that's a good that's a good video yeah a little irreverent t pose it's a ch pose everyone knows it's a t pose it's a no one's calling on a teapose i might take these glasses off soon i'll see ladies and gentlemen um stepping in for Dylan Shivry, who is returning from vacation today, Will DeFreeze. Crazy work to take off the first day of the year.

It's a move. I mean, we're kicking off 20. It's the kickoff show. We're kicking off the new year. Dude, he's making the Sunday Scaries guy work on the worst Monday of the year. Like, what's his problem? Dude, Sunday Scaries guy just booked a haircut, and I got a feeling it's going to be a good haircut. Daddy's ready.

You don't want your guy telling you early December that he's booked for the rest of the year. Did he hit you up and say, I got an opening or did you just happen to look at the right time. The rest of the year, all the way through December. That's crazy. He's probably taking some time off. He's probably trying to get his appointments in. I don't know where his family lives. I don't ask him those questions. Why don't you calm down there, bud? Not trying to creep him out, dude. Yeah, don't make it weird with the haircut guy. Sorry, man. Is he, you call him a barber? Is he a licensed barber? Nah, I don't think so. Okay. I mean, maybe. Do you ever have him touch your beard up? No, he asked the other day. I think he wanted to.

I've gotten the mustache touch up on occasion. I used to get my beard done, but it grows so fast that it's, like, satisfying for like three days. And then suddenly it's like, well, now I have to do this again myself. One time I went to the Mexican restaurant nearby, and then I got my mustache touched up. And all I could do, I was holding my breath because, you know, she has to kind of get in there a little close. And I was like, oh, I always made sure to mint up before getting the beer done. Smart. Smart.

So Will's in the building. Dylan will be back tomorrow. tomorrow by the way regular show at 11 cold call it's a cold I want to do I want to kick it off with some cold calls randy can you are you capable of doing that I can kick it off some cold calls what was that I can kick it off some cold calls okay I'm being visually impaired right now you know you don't have to wear them I but it's 2026 people need to know I think that we're going to have these glasses for a while because uh I mean It plays all year.

They should have stopped in, you know, the 2010s because the one didn't make sense. Now they're putting the hole in the gap of the two. It made sense during the 2000s because there's two circles. But yeah, we're going to get them in the threes and fours. And to be clear, Patron sent you like a happy New Year gift. It was tequila and these shades. It was two pairs of these shades. It was a bottle of their L Alto, two small versions of their L Alto.

Why don't you bring one of those in for the boys? I'll bring one of those in for the boys. I think you need to bring one in for the boys. boys need to tax that the boys will be getting one brought in for sure you gotta kick them up to the boss and then uh and then they're like two little spout things they were like plastic that i think you're supposed to put on top but i was like uh i don't need that alto's a hundred fifty dollars a bottle yeah it's nice what kind of tequila i feel like i feel like you're spiritually against drinking liquor that high end technically it's a repisado uh but it's because

it's on yeah yeah it's not really it's not clocking to me it's it's blended with a bunch of different ones, but, like, if you blend all the different types, you have to go with the least amount of time. So, like, you can take something that's a bunch of in Yeho. Tequila guy. Put some reposado in it, and that's a reposal. Guy goes to Mexico once. Yeah, one trip of a lifetime. And now he's tequila guy. I learned a lot. All right, the glasses come off. Oh, no. All right. Happy 2026, everybody. Happy New Year. I mean, they're good glasses for New Year's Eve. Yeah. But we're about a week separated from that, bud. Hey, happy belated. Thank you. Hey, remember, I was the first one to wish I always.

Will, a happy birthday in a group text, and then I watch you guys all smorm. Plebeians. You can tell exactly when your wife posts on Instagram celebrating your birthday because then everyone texts you. And it's like, man, I just don't want to do this. It's funny. The only reason I remember is because I still have on Facebook when people's like birthdays are. So if I'll go on there, I'll be like, oh, it's so-and-so's birthday.

I'm going to say like a hyper-niche way of remembering. No, just the most common way to remember a birthday, Facebook. But you guys don't go on Facebook. I go on twice a month. I'm always on there. Rarely, it's just, if I think about someone and think, huh, I wonder what happened to them? Or just to make sure that I didn't miss anything.

It's the Facebook marketplace, you know, whatever. Instead of like, you know, going to Instagram, going to TikTok, sometimes I just open on Facebook, just see what's on Marketplace. No. I was looking up home saunas on Facebook Marketplace last month. You can find some good deals. People buy those and don't really use them. They're like, eh, I'll sell it.

You can get one for like $1,500 on there. Yeah, but then some dude's wet ass has just been sitting there, you know? That's, honestly had that thought. It's like very, eh, it's like ingrained in the wood. Why don't you just build your own? Yeah. I'm not built like that. You could be built like that if you built it.

Randy built a tree shelf. Yeah. You can build a sauna. This has a heating device, whole thing. I could come over and build it for you. You have to make sure there's even flow. Even flow. We built a grill together.

That is true, a smoker. I did ribs recently on it. Nice. And we went to K-pot, Korean barbecue together. We did. We did. It's delicious. Okay.

No. Can you record on a separate track? I do record. on a separate track. Okay. I multi-track this. Beep-pop, poop. We're still not wireless, I see.

No. What's going on? Tough start's the whole thing this year. I was hoping we would get back in the office. Randy was going to surprise us with all wireless. But no, I guess the tech's not there for us. Guess not. Guess not for us.

Somebody just was chilling. That's cool, dude. Why don't you tell us all about it, dude? What were you doing over the break that you couldn't come in here and make us wireless? I was back up in Chicagoland. Did a lot of stuff. Met a lot of meetings. Met the girlfriend's parents.

The rest of it and her friends. I was hoping the meetings were like for the business. No. Like Randy went rogue and was like, I went and saw some agencies. I actually did. I actually got us like a $3 million in investment. Really? Cool.

No, I didn't. Fuck. But I did meet the girlfriend's parents. It went very well. Did you do the flowers thing? I did not do the flowers thing. You want to make fun of it now? I brought it up to her.

I'm like, someone that we're excited, she bring flowers. And then like, she was just like, I don't know. I'm like, do you think it's corny? She's like, yeah, I think it's pretty fucking corny. I'm like, all right,

that I'm not going to do the flowers. Is that Brett's idea? Just bringing flowers? It was Dylan's. Or were you going to like whip them out of like a trench coat or something? I was just going to bring them. That was a thought, yeah.

Yeah. And also. Because like, flowers, I think it's a nice, that's fine. I don't think it's, it's not too corny. But yeah,

if you're going to like do a bit I'd also you're going to make him pop out of a hat or something yeah but I'd also just sent her flowers like a week or two before so like then it's like oh he's the flower guy there is a lawyer in Dallas

not a bad guy to be though if you're going to be the guy yeah yeah you remember that boyfriend she had back in 2025 he would never stop giving her flowers either way I did not bring them I did not bring her mother flowers because we were

did you hug we did it was great cheat kiss no cheat kiss Does the shy chickest? Doesn't she Italian? No. She just has an Italian last name. She's like Danish and Polish. It's really confusing.

Does her bloodline trace back to Hrothgar? Yeah, it does. King of the Danes. He's a king of the Danes, Will. King of the Danes, Will. You ever hear about this? It was a lot of bouncing back and forth. Like we had to drive back from Lombard to Dyer, which is like 50 minutes, like four

or five times. She met my family. Can you give us some context? The nieces loved her. From long, where is it, to die or to? Lombard, 50 minutes. 50? 50.

Damn. It's not too bad. Not too, not too great. But she met my family. Nises loved her would not let her, you know, would not leave her alone. We met all our friends. Did like four different Christmases, like that one movie. We weren't sure about Randy when we met him because he didn't bring flowers and also he did origami with a napkin.

I have not hit them with the We put him on cocktail duty at our first family Christmas and he made my tithes which we thought was a little weird but then we realized that that's what makes Randy special he kind of crushed it

he gave all of Elvis rowback that he said he paid for but it was free that's why I have the extra small out there yeah yeah I don't understand that yeah I gave my brother's rowback sometimes when we have extra rowback so what

So what? So what? Yeah, I would too. I know. I don't have brothers. I can't just, I can't just give him a rowback. I just think you're sneaky.

I think you're sneaky wearing extra small now and you don't want to admit it. No, I accidentally, accidentally ordered a large and I'm a medium in rowback. I'm a large and everything else, but I'm a medium and rowback. Okay. Went to the city.

Did a bunch of stuff in the city. We went to some Navy Pier Winter Wonderland with all the kids and there was like, I rode a carnival ride, the Roundup. You guys, remember that one? Yeah, Dylan's been a roundup. Dude. I blocked out of Roundup twice, same night.

A lot of movies. The end of that story. A lot of TV. Watch Stranger Things, which we might talk about later this episode, or maybe we'll punt it to tomorrow. Yeah, you had a lot of takes. I do. And I watched the Goonies for the first time. Oh, really?

You didn't just live it. No. It was the last day. It was available on Netflix. I've never seen it. So I watched it with a girlfriend. But New Year's with her friends. It was a pretty relaxing time after we were bouncing back and forth.

How were her friends? Good. Actually, two of the boyfriends might be listening right now. Ooh, new backers. Shout out to AJ and TC maybe if you guys are listening. A lot of initials. Oh, so you're trying to be kind of like serious Randy now, like not the wacky Randy that we all know? Have you not listened to the whole first like 10 minutes?

No, you're like, you're trying to not be the comedian. Okay, let me put the classes back on, Dave. Do they listen to pods or are they like, are they the kind of guys like, I don't really listen to pods? I don't know, how do you do that? I think they listen to podcasts, yeah. Are they stillies? Be honest.

I don't know. We've had an influx of stoolies and, uh... Yeah, we know. What's the other one? Dumbhucks? It's tech fans, it's Cactus Mafia, dumbfucks, and also Stoley's. But there was another one I thought, too. Huh.

Went and played golf with that boy on Friday. That's fun. Got a text from Brett on on number one asking if I could do some work for him that day. I was like, dude, come on man. I'm on

number one and it's my birthday. I really don't want to do that. I don't think he knew. I didn't tell him. I don't think he knew. I broke the couch again. Not, I mean, Chill weekend. You know what I did last night? Huey Lewis and the news put a full concert on YouTube from 1985 at a music festival that's on a beach. And I watched that last night. Where was this? I would like to go back in time and go to a Huey Lewis in the news concert on the beach.

That's when cocaine was still safe. Very, very cocaine heavy show. Yeah, those are the days. People in the crowd were either going crazy or completely passed out of it. the sand that's only way to do it man and when power of love came up i was like why does this feel so right and then i realized it was from this weekend in farm yeah those are the days i had a i had a buddy growing up who had two golden retrievers and one's name was huey and the other was lewis that's really dope i didn't realize how dope it was until later in life and then i was like

damn his dad was cooking with this man i'd like to know where his dad was in 1985 well he was a golf pro so he was probably being the absolute man. That's so sick. Right? It keeps getting better. High Crown hat. Awesome. He looks the part, too.

Like four buttons on his polo, probably button, maybe even like all the way up. Oh, yeah. He dressed like Prime Tiger. By the way, speaking of golf pros, we're kicking around in our football league, fantasy league about where we're going to do our draft. Me and, you know Pete,

we're really pushing for Northern Michigan. Yeah, I mean, I've got several people reaching out to me about some trips they have up there in 2026 and I want to be like to like some of these people I want to be like maybe I you should just invited me on the golf trip and like I could have set us up with everything and made it really awesome we have space because there's a guy who absolutely refuses to go on any of them so please go I might I might jump on you'd have fun Todd's there my Todd not your Todd your Todd your Todd might be there too I can do we get both those Todds together let's get Todd's together dude

about the quality of food and it's like well maybe not maybe you don't break into a federal building Yeah, my might break it into federal building days are behind me. What else do you, do you break in any buildings? No. Are you part of Delta Force? No, I had a, I had a very low-key time. Well, it was not on Delta Force.

I had sushi on Friday for my birthday. Oh, yeah. So tell us about that. My wife told me that we were going to a steakhouse for my birthday. Hungwi. And then I said to her, well, it was just you and I. I'd rather go to this other steakhouse. So why don't we just go there instead?

And then I thought she was going to see that through for my birthday. And then the morning of, she goes, yeah, no, I messed up the reservation. So we're getting sushi instead. And I'm like, how about it? So you messed up the reservation. You were sneaky thinking this isn't going to be a surprise. Yeah, I was like, well, what are you up to then? Like, I'd rather just know.

Like, I want to get excited. Yeah. And so I was like, okay. Okay. So now I'm not getting steak and, okay, whatever. To be fair, Uchiko goes hard. Oh yeah, it goes hard. I was just in the mood for something else.

And then, yeah, sure enough, she invited a couple other couples to come hang out with us. And I was like, well, you could have just told me this. Like, I don't need a surprise for stuff. I'd rather just get fired up. I probably would have invited people over to our house for drinks beforehand had, like, I known that we were hanging out. Like, whatever, it was a great birthday. I ate a lot.

I had two Gittoro bites, dude. No one's doing two steak bites at dinner. yeah someone didn't want there so i just hammered it whoa i can't imagine birthday boy living large yeah yeah you know what it is not i didn't do shit dude i watch i watch manchester united play they got they fired their manager this morning first thing i saw when i woke up at six a m i don't yeah based on what you told me that's a that's a little bit of a head scratcher isn't a weird day whenever you're like coach gets fired it's like man something that i really invest a lot of time it is in complete disarray like what what's going to happen you're you

just have to brace yourself for like a lot of a lot of news in your life for the next you know is there is there a successor no that we know is there any names getting floated no are they going to have to steal somebody we're in a situation where it's like yeah if they fire him at the end of the season i get it but like i feel like we're actually overachieving versus last year so like maybe we don't rock the boat too much right now and then uh then he went on a little rant yesterday and they just decided all right i guess it's done so i'll be checking twitter damn be checking the odd sites for favorites dude i opened up a polymarket account yeah a few nights ago yeah and i just on a whim i was like i'm gonna put like 30k on us uh in the middle of the night

taking down this uh this guy maduro and come to find out i was right wow and um i'm a very wealthy man right now yeah is there any chance that uh just the u s is going to run Manchester United I did see a tweet that put Donald Trump's face on the new manager's head uh and did Grock do it

I think Grog needs to fucking chill I think GROC did it Hey GROC I'm out on GROC Hey GROC I don't like GROC Put me on a sexual predator list What

You gotta explain Because there's a lot of people that aren't on Twitter There's a lot of people Who don't know what the idiot of this is I apologize Hey Grock Yeah dude

They gotta stop hey Grocking I like the move where like there's like a photo and it's like for known people and it's like uh yeah hey grok remove the goat or hey grok remove the pedophile and it's just to see what grok who croc thinks is the goat or the pedophile yeah yeah that way of the goat that way of using grok i would say is acceptable it's still a little bit like all right it's a little mean-spirited but i think you know i think we can all agree it's acceptable i do think the way that some people are using grok which is to take photos women just dressed normally and minding their own business and then asking to put them in

micro bikinis, I think that might be a step too far. Hey, Grock, put her in a micro bikini and put glaze all over her. Yeah, put icing on her face. Yeah, it's like, stop it. I'd like, I'd like a list of those accounts so I could block them. Yeah. How is it? If I were, if I were, if I own Twitter, I would have simply turned off Grock's ability to generate images until we got it sorted out. What did we, didn't Grog get put in like time out, like a number of times? for things like that felt less egregious yeah he was going a little nazi oh okay that was egregious yeah he did get putting time out for that i just feel like the uh the uh altering photos of just regular people bystanders just like oh fuck there's me and yeah it happened to me did it yeah i thought

about taking the the female photos of that are of us made into females and asking it to take out the ugliest one but being the grenade being the grenade of the group like yeah I didn't want to do that I'm not worried about that you would have been fine I'm a problem female Dave's a problem baddie Dave kind of made me wonder like

man did I would you do yourself yeah we've all had that thought honestly the when uh Brett did it with me and Micah at the Christmas party I was like dang all right that was the first time female me I was like

If you go to Circling Backs Twitter feed You'll see I quote tweeted something with it And it's a JBL speaker Floated ashore somewhere And it's covered in Barnacle certified barnacles And it still works And they play a song from it And it's bumping

I need it for Wilmans so bad Okay so there's like competitors to JBL Like their whole thing dude There's like They're like, oh, dude, we're waterproof, blah, blah, blah. If I'm JBL, like, I'm using that video for marketing purposes as many times as I'm legally allowed. I feel like for that thing to have, like, acquired that many barnacles and that thing was there for at least two months. Yeah.

Probably longer. I think it was chill on for weeks out there. Somebody just had that out there in a raft, just dropped it and thought it was over. I don't want them to clean it off or anything. Like, I want them to keep that thing. barnacled up. We found our treasure, our booty. I don't even know what song they first played

I was like, oh, Will really, Will's been thinking about that. Yeah, there were several times when I walked around the house and said to myself, Yard, Siemens Cola. It's one of those jokes where if we brought this up in front of Flounder's wife, there's no way she knows about it. She would be, like, looking at him and just disgust. What is what is wrong with you? What are you doing?

Yeah, I always get scared hanging out with my hometown friends around Sally. They're going to bring up some dumb shit I did. I'm going to be like, oh, yeah, you didn't know about that?

everything in my body wanted me to go one degree in either way i was like vanny face kid like the meme uh will i'm gonna let you have this egg because you've got you've got a you want to talk about your birthday a little bit more yeah i turned 39 whoa one more year uh had the had the had the friday january second birthday which always feels good sometimes you have to go back to work that day sometimes it's brutal just trying to wake up and have a good day you know going to the weekend have a little birthday weekend you know i wasn't going to be a diva about it but you know i just certainly not wanted to enjoy myself and do what i wanted to do in life you did kind of bully me into playing golf yeah i didn't but someone else did and i was happy that they did no i was just kidding

last year with will yeah bill bill reveal next year um and so viper's going full bill mode we're going from Viper to Bill and I wake up and I check Twitter as one does and I have an alert from Dylan Shivery if you want to bring that up Randy you can see the video I can narrate the video while you play it

the video itself is from a trip to New Orleans where I took a little nap at the table after a long trip with the boys you know this is Micah's Bachelor party I believe I just I just needed a sec, you know. I don't know if I've ever seen this video before. If Dylan's used it for anything, I'm not familiar.

I'd never seen this video. I don't really care this video is on the internet because, you know, there's other stuff that I've, you know, there's been on the internet. Sure. But, oh no. In what world? In what world are we posting this video of me with no clearance?

But we can't post a simple egg video. I just don't get it. I think it's retaliation. Egg videos on the table. I don't get why we can't post a video of him eating eggs, but he can post a video of me 30 drinks deep at a restaurant in New Orleans sleeping. Like, let me post egg. I mean, I think that is a perfectly reasonable response to this video. The other day, I was going through some old videos trying to find something.

And I found a video of Dylan at Matt's drawing the S that everyone drew. and he's just dialed in for like 60 plus seconds. Like dialed in drawing this ass. I took that video. And we can't post it with audio because there's some very unsavory stuff being said in the background, not in a perverted way,

but maybe about an industry, it's some industry secrets being told in the back. Some insider trading. And some people talking mad shit about Randy. Yeah, mad shit about Randy. And so I don't know. I just have a couple videos that might see the light of day over the next.

however long, you know. Dude, he makes a face in that video that I want you to take a still of where he's like, like, it's very much like, it's very, there's something about the face. I just think it's unfair how much he gate keeps. Right there. Dude, dude, yeah, save that. Okay, save that. That should be a sticker or like a reaction reply going into perpetuity.

Yeah. Yep, that's good. That's good. Got it. He looks so cocky. he got you i'd never seen this this is the pighead meal right yeah this is the last night of the bachelor party yeah nobody really i mean it wasn't that we didn't want to go to dinner but by that time everybody was like i'm not even that hungry if you could have given me the out for the

entire night before dinner time i would have taken it because i was so tired yeah i was just so tired we were all pretty tired the pighead grossed me out i think i had covid at this point and just didn't know it yeah you did this was this was the this was the covid dinner it was just a lot But like, he's got to loosen the reins a little bit on his own videos, dude. He basically dropped, he came into your country, middle of the night, cut, cut your power grid, kidnapped you. And he said, what are you going to do about it? And then he put you on display in a tech, you know, workout. A Nike jumpsuit, objectively dope sweatsuit.

Everything you always say is facts. That's what he did to you. why did maduro have like different fits like throughout the night why was he just getting like why did he have like four or five different outfits i don't know do you get to pack a bag do you have an overnight bag ready to go dude probably what if like he didn't and they just had like a bunch of random clothes for him from like people that were involved they're just like dude you want this they put him in one of haggsess suits with the um the pocket square that's american flag. It's tight. He's got the camo inside of the suit. Are you kidding? Man, dude, how do I get

one of those? You gotta go to a custom tailor, dude. Dylan, you gotta answer for this, buddy. He does need to answer. He needs to, at the very least, let us post the egg video. At the very least. I would respect if you just dropped it with, you know. Yeah. I think it's a proportional response. It has to get dropped at this point from a non-circling back account that he doesn't have access to it because he already deleted it once. Dude, you should definitely just post it on Scarys, Instagram. I could. Yeah. Diet starts tomorrow and just have Dylan eating eggs. That's good. Dude, that would be... He'd be so mad. I got to tell you, dude, he would, he would be fuming. It would be the funniest thing that anyone has ever done in the nine years of

content. It would be the most unnecessary over-the-top move. Make sure you tag them. Oh, yeah, as the architect, the librarian of circling back as it is, I don't know what the word do you use. I don't think I've ever seen this video. So I think this is a new video on the timeline. Yeah. To me, there was a part of me that was like, he does he does a pixelated Brett for Brett every year?

There's a part of me that was like, does he do this for me every year? And I just don't like, I just suppress that or something. Yeah, he puts my butt. He does put your butt. He does put your butt. He puts my butt on the timeline. Can you pull up the guy's wedding entrance I sent you?

Speaking of online stuff. This has been everywhere on the timeline. Okay. I have not seen this yet, so I'm going to have to- Okay, there is volume, and let me just, I'm going to give a warning. It is an unended little Wayne song, which makes it even more crazy, but this guy is walking into it. By the way, outdoor daytime wedding. Florida?

Florida is a good guess. Yeah. Let's just say Florida. Everything about this is Florida. And this is the groom walking up, not into the reception, not at like the after party. This is the groom walking up to the altar by himself. Go ahead, Randy. He's by himself in his white tuxedo.

This is really bad. Yeah, this is Florida. Oh, he did like a modified Ray Lewis. Yeah. And everybody clapped. So this is, you got to see the visual. We'll repost it on the story. He didn't need to do this.

No. And I think he liked this one back. If you're going to do something like that, you have to have like the boys there hyping it up. like you can't just do that by yourself. Okay, this, I think there's a couple of changes they could have made to make this better. One, it sounds like they need the music

as loud as humanly possible and it was not as loud as humanly possible. Yeah. But more importantly, I think they needed to move the aisle closer so that you could have people reaching out and giving them high fives and stuff like that or at least have the optics of it because like you can barely see anyone here.

He's in no man's land. Yeah, like in tennis, like you never want to find yourself like in the middle of the court like if you're going to rush the net go rush the fucking net this dude did not rush the net um yeah he's just way too far away from everyone they needed a jb yeah they needed to be pumping them yeah i also if i'm him i would have maybe unbuttoned my jacket for a little more range of motion there yeah that's a great point as well i know he was following fashion rules by keeping the jacket buttoned while standing but i do think there are certain scenarios where you got to let it breathe a little bit and this is one of them yeah there was yeah you can see

Like the way that his shoulders are just like when he's bumping up, like, it looks weird. It almost looks like he's wearing like a David Byrne, a big guy suit, a giant suit. Yeah, this is a, there's a great quote tweet of this. People on Twitter were widely panning or like, what are you doing? And the guy who said, this is what happens when you are chronically online and you get like a thought in your head and you think it's going to be one thing, but it doesn't go that way at all. and like i can almost see this guy because this song by the way is like uh probably almost two decades old what is what song is that little wayne going in from what uh i don't even know if it's his song it wasn't card of three i know that but song by drake 2009 yeah 2009 okay so it's 16 years old

wait 17 is six seven but him and his boys were probably like sophomore year high school and they were just they probably wore this song out right yeah and he's i'm gonna play this in my wedding and they're like oh yeah that'd be crazy dude and then like he he's like no i said i was gonna do i'm gonna do it and it's just everybody's like ooh yeah he probably didn't need to actually do people say a lot of things in high school they don't do you know sally's in a viral wedding video right yeah but i can't picture what it is it's a it's a biance uh dance routine that the bridesmaids did. Is she a bridesmaid?

She is? And I don't think she knew how many views it had until recently. And I was like, yeah, but that one video of you has like over a million views. And she's like, what are you talking about? It's about to have a lot more. And I showed it to her and she's like, I cannot believe there's 1.5 billion views on this thing. Billion or million? Million.

Million. Is it, where's it on? The YouTube? At least there you have like the group and it's like, okay. Oh, yeah. Bridesmaid's doing it's excusable. It's like you're with the group, fine. This is, this is the groom.

This is how he will remember that day. It could have gone worse. It didn't fall. It could have gone worse. He doesn't like, he doesn't kill it. But he also isn't like, but it's just very out of place and awkward in like the, the people in the, in the seats, they just look like family. It's definitely not the boys. Yeah, you need, if you're going to do that, you might need to have a few more people there.

You do have the one guy in the background here. That's at least just trying to help. The guy with the backwards hat and sunglasses at a wedding is at least trying to hype him up. How do you feel about like wedding photographers and like support staff that are rocking like not, not saying they need to wear like suits, but like are rocking like shorts in a backward cap?

I feel like you got to just rock like all black. Yeah. You got to go. You got to look like a techie from like high school. musicals yeah i agree with that like you just gotta go incognito mode yeah or go like or just hide in the bushes in a gilly suit you could put a you could do an invisibility cloak yeah everything about that i didn't know that was in play but now that you mentioned it i wish you would throw one over all these wires i me too i don't got much else to say about that

ridiculous this is um it's a little interesting it's giving ohio or uh florida but with With it being recent, I got to assume it's not Ohio. Because let me tell you, it was cold up in the Midwest. Yeah. I almost, Will, you kind of made, when you said earlier that you kind of feel bad for him, now you kind of have me feeling a little bit about. Dude, like, he thought he was going to kill it. Now everyone's making fun of him on his wedding day.

I don't understand him, but I don't understand guys who I have to get hyped up. Because, like, he was like getting hyped up. We got up to the altar. He was, like, bouncing around. I was like shaking. I was like nervous. I had the nerves going through me. I've been drinking.

I didn't want. to be like going i had guy who drank but was adrenaline firing so hard i didn't i wasn't feeling it until later and then i was i've only done one entrance at a wedding where we had to like do a dance thing and i feel like we crushed it there was somebody's i had to do a walk in to the reception with and we like had everybody was doing like a fun thing i think i raised the roof with one arm we just made sure that everyone's walk in didn't last too long it was like no leave him wanting more yeah get it done go sit down like everyone in And it worked.

It worked for you. It's all you need to do. You know, if I were to do something like this, I would always, I would want to make sure I was in good shape. And that's why I would be using FitBod like I am right now. Not at this very moment, but like when I go to the gym or when I go home for the holidays, I pull open that FitBod at and get me some customized workouts that helps me like, I don't know.

My dad's got a 20 pound dumbbell in the garage. And I say, hey, FitBod, that's all I got. I'll say, all right, say word. I mean, they'll write me up a little workout. There's an angle at FitBod for the people who want to get in shape this year but don't want to get shamed for going to the gym by the people that are at the gym all the time. Absolutely.

You know what? I'm going to flip that narrative. I'm going to flip that narrative. You know the people that are complaining about all the people going to the gym right now? Worst people. Why don't you go sign up for FitBod for the month of January and try it out and see what you could do? Do it. See what you could see what you could change.

You don't have to tweet. You have to put up the original tweet first, Randy.

I think I might have done him out of order. Gotcha. Sorry. This one. You don't have to tweet everything that comes to mind. The one that he's quote tweeting. Yeah, I click that one first. Oh, God, this is.

It's a voluminous tweet. This is long. That's why we're going to have Randy read it right now. No, my God. Don't me to read it? Yeah, let's read. Yeah. I'll read it, Randy.

Okay. Hold on. Let me make sure I have the right one up. Okay. his name's Justin Murphy or Jay Murphy on Twitter. Am I a monster? It's been four years since I became a father and I'm beginning to fear for my soul. The truth is I don't like being around kids for very long.

Historically, this is not uncommon among fathers, but today it feels almost illegal. It's causing me a lot of confusion and anguish. The ideal amount of time I would like to spend playing with my kids is probably 70 to 140 minutes a week. Roughly 10 minutes each day, maybe two times per day, taking breaks from work. My feelings of love towards them are perfectly strong, but if I have to watch them or entertain them for more than about 10 minutes, my blood starts to boil. I just want to be working or accomplishing something. I try to be grateful, but it just doesn't work.

It's 9 a.m. this morning, Saturday, January 3rd. It's a sunny, warm day here in Austin, and my four-year-old son is begging for me to play catching the street. I was drinking coffee, still waking up, so I didn't really feel like it. But at this age, his desire to play is insatiable. He begged and begged, so I concede it and with a smile. And I concede it and with a smile. I have no problem being kind and loving father.

The problem is only that I do not enjoy it. It's not that I'm trying to maximize my personal pleasure. It just seems wrong that I experience so little delight when my dad friends all claim to experience so much. It was beautiful. We live on a picturesque treeline block. I'm even relatively relaxed from the holiday rest. Playing catch with your son is supposed to be iconic peak experience.

Yet for every single minute on the inside, I just don't want to be there. I want to be drinking my coffee in peace, and then I feel guilty and absurdly ungrateful and ashamed when we're done. I know that when he is a teenager, I'll long to have these days back. I have all this perspective rationally, and I've been very patient and steadfast trying to digest it, but nothing fixes it for me emotionally. My terrible person, or is my feeling within a certain range of historically normal and its modern parenting norms that are off? Whether it's my fault or not. I don't care. I just want to figure this out. Something is wrong. And I no longer have the

excuse of being new to this. I would not have made it through that first paragraph. Okay, dude. What are you doing? Man, uh, not only do you not have to tweet, but you don't have to tweet, uh, 800 words. Yeah. On the subject. Maybe go to a therapist instead of, uh, you know, having this on the internet forever for your kid to read in a couple years. Like, I know, I know there's a lot of, like, meme formats that are like, you couldn't waterboard this information out of me. But like, even if I felt like 1% that way you couldn't waterboard that out of me because it's just the optics of that are not great imagine like you're not you're not feeling good you're just you think you're coming down with something and like you know there's

that moment where like kids like I want to go somewhere and you're like oh man that your first reaction is like I'm going to go tweet about how like uh I don't want to do this yeah dude that that that uh catch we played at nine this morning and in our front yard man that fucking sucked. I'm going to go do a thousand word tweet about it. And let me say this also. So his kid's four? Yeah.

That's kind of like when it's, it's, that's when it like the kid has a personality. Yeah. And is talking to you in theory. Like four kind of rules, right? Four has been a really fun age. Dude. And it just kept getting worse. Like, well, one, so many people are supporting this guy.

Are they? Yes. And then there's a bunch of people just being like, yeah, dude, your son might, read this one day like you're putting it out there and he's probably going to see this at some point now is unlike his neighbors and then people just started finding other tweets from him oh see that's the that's this one's from september 2020 so that so he's got two more that people have unearthed here and these are bad wait did i send you all these you sent me to you sent me the crazy how long it takes and the another reason viper's going to expose himself a little bit here but i can't

read what's on the screen because it's too blurry how about that now i'm feeling old dude okay this is one from 2020 another reason i want a baby is because i need some pro-social cover for my increasing drive to get rich a childless man with hunger for money is seen as he an evil man but a father with hunger for money is seen as a good man now that's deep they should have cut his dick straight off when he tweeted that this one is from january 2025 oh he's doing numbers crazy how long it takes fatherhood to become fun my son just turned what three uh and i almost want to say i'm only just now starting to find this gig fun like at all i guess fathers don't talk about this because it sounds bad but zero to two is pretty boring not much for a man to do until they can

roughhouse inform ideas i don't know you could change a diaper you could like just make sure the kids happy yeah you could play uh pearl jams even flow on your blue two speaker to set them up for artistic success in life peel off the barnacles and play something on the jb yeah i know being a parent's not easy trust me well like man you just don't have to post it dude's dude's just posting through it so i was on another threat of someone making fun of this and i clicked the replies the top reply was from the CEO of the company that this guy works for in Austin and the CEO was saying a lot of things in support saying as the CEO of the company that this guy works for I love hearing this he just wants to work does a lot about where we're at

we might live in the duchiest city of all time yeah okay I thought I was worried you're going to say he like I was going to be like oh well now the kids now the kids It's hungry and has a dad that he doesn't like him. No, yeah, if anything, like, don't fire this guy for having horrible takes. Like, make sure his kid is at least, like, fed? Maybe this will, this will send it back the other way. Dude, yeah, dope. You know, my kid, if, when Rhodes, like, wants to go outside and play catch or something, like, that's, that's, I would, I love that.

Like, yeah, that sounds tight. Let's go out there and do that. Will have to play catch with himself. I didn't have to. I didn't have to. I didn't have to. That makes it sound like my dad was a bad dad. My dad was a great dad.

I know. It's just a funniest story that you just would throw the ball. What's even more sad is that I would do it sometimes at times when I knew my neighbor was home in hopes that he would see me doing it alone and be like, oh, I'll go play with him. I was just pandering to a kid younger than me. Oh, man. I forgot about that. Hey, dude, you can always, like, most of the stuff with, like, a four or five-year-old, like,

or any kid really, like, you can kind of mix in a beer. Uh-huh. You can go outside and throw the bull. ball around? Have a cold beer? Have a beer, hoss. Get you a beer, Bob. So I'm assuming maybe this guy's married? I wonder what his wife thinks about this. I wonder if he's talking to his wife's not allowed to have a cell phone or something. Like, a wife cannot see these tweets and be okay with their husband, right? I can't imagine. I kind of want to just send us to a list and no context just to see what she says about this. This dude wants to be Don Draper and just like go to his office

all day not see his kids and then when he gets home just sit down and read the newspaper and tell him to fuck off i mean there is something nice about sitting down and reading the newspaper oh don't get me wrong like i would love i love an early bedtime every once in a while like don't get me wrong but like we should take this guy's kids away dude you need to just force your hobbies on your kid so like yeah so anything you want to do like make make your kid get into coffee oh yeah why doesn't it get your old get your oldest kid as a salesperson for whatever tech company. He definitely works for it. Yeah, get him a little apprenticeship. These guys are doing some type of like meme coin or some bullshit. Oh, man, this does give shit coin. Look him up on

LinkedIn. See if he's in your network. I was worried that you say when you click the tweet, like somebody we know is like responding to it. Like, you know, I actually have similar thoughts often. You know, sometimes I just want to like drink all day and watch college football. But you know what? Hey, I do I have the thought of like, yeah, I really, wish my kid wasn't taking up the big TV watching Bluey. Love to be watching, uh, you name it, game here. But I'll go, I'll watch it on my lap ear or my phone. Yeah, I'd like to be watching right here. I'd love to. I'll make some concessions in life to make sure my kids are happy. Yeah, he can watch Bluey. Because the alternative is him being bad. I'm glad at least he's like concerned.

He says, I'm beginning of fear for my soul. And I'm like, do other people feel this? Is this normal? like he's at least being like you know introspective about it you know what he should have done i don't know if this guy dabbles in stand-up comedy he could have turned this into a decent bit this could this could be a bit i'm sure it's been done but you know there's a way with the right delivery the right comedian could could could do this instead you put it in text we can't interpret tone true there's just a lot maybe this guy's just this guy's kind of a genius because the rich man tweet was kind of interesting i started thinking about it i'm like well The only reason I want to be rich, but I don't want to be, like, just greedy guy.

Oh, he's grinding for his family, dude. Yeah. He works 80 hours a week. He's just grinding versus guy. That's so loud. That's why Walter White did it. It was always for his family. That's facts.

That's big facts, dude. I don't even think about it. How's Walt? Yeah, how's Walt viewed versus like Jesse? Jesse. Everybody kind of like Jesse. Yeah. Hey, can I say something?

Yeah. You're on a podcast. today's uh today's time stamps may based may be based on vibes more than anything okay i've gotten some of them but some of them are vibe i will double check her quite a vibe like a jbl covered in barnacles gets him a seaman's cola a sap again you just got to go listen to the last episode yeah that would help yeah man if this guy wants to have a margarito over this at mats i'll do it with him. I'll have, I'll have that conversation. Hey, should we just, like, not tell Dylan, we're going to have him on the show. This guy. And, like, he just has to sit down. I think Dylan

will fight him. Dylan doesn't put up with, with bad dad slander stuff. Yeah, we should probably, we should probably just bring him in here. Dylan's still trying to get Sam Taylor on the show. To get her on. I'm now on like team. I'm now on his camp. I wanted to happen. I do, I do too. Ranchos. Because I now know that she is doing a, what is it? Is it rage bait with the words? With the mispronunciations? And now I respect it so much because it's working.

How did she say Caccioi Pepe? Cacheo? I don't know. Whatever it was, it was just disturbing. Let me tell you, if I would see that word, I wouldn't even give it. I would just point to it on the menu and look at the waiter. I don't know how to say that. You just say, I'll have the T-bone.

Yeah. Oh, you know what, I'll just have the chicken fingers. I know how to pronounce that. Cool. Caccio a Pepe. Pepper. What is it? I think, I think this company or the Couchioe broke a broke.

Yeah, it broke again. You know what I'm saying? Campbell, I'm just leaned back. So if this thing completely falls apart at some point. Taylor, we had Taylor on. Diet starts tomorrow. Do Taylor, yeah, he's a big dude. Played football.

yeah former conference champ oh yeah he was a starting quarterback he sat down just immediately i watched that that arm just pop up i was like oh god yeah we got to get some additional screws for this thing like bad yeah and uh if we get a little carried away buying screws you know who's got our back it's rocket money that's true you know what i'm saying what's the most uh ridiculous subscription you can think of for me it's been like this i listened to this podcast back in the day and it was on some random app that I don't even know if is around anymore. And I subscribed to it just to listen to this one podcast. And I forgot and I had it for like two years and it was like $1.99 a month and I felt

like a total bonehead. Sliby. That was the app. Is that the app? Yeah. Well, I was very, very embarrassed. But Rocket Money got me. It's the personal finance app that helps you find and cancel unwanted subscriptions,

monitors spending and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. We've all done it. We've all used it. We've all learned a lot from it. We're huge fans. You can see your whole financial dashboard in one place. If you're saving for something, it can help you pick the best time to save. It's a great way to budget.

You get a little email, tell you about your spending if you went off. Just the simple dashboard alone that they have on there that just tells you the state of everything is pretty eye-opening, whether you want that or not. Consolidates checking, savings, loans, and investments into a single dashboard to give you, there's a clear view of the financial picture. And the automated savings that grow towards goals with adjustable amounts and frequency, you can set it and forget it. That's my approach.

It's fantastic. Let Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster. Join at RocketMoney.com slash circling. That's rocketmoney.com slash circling. We got to talk planes, y'all. Hey, y'all. Hey. are you steaming i saw i saw this tweet yesterday morning and i thought and i read it and i thought

i feel like this guy's going a little too hard and then it just kept popping up with people shitting on this guy and then i decided you know what i want to talk about this okay randy key throw the tweet up sure what are you smiling about nothing i might uh i don't have he wasn't ready yeah that was the one they didn't have he's got barnacles on his keyboard is this the united thing yeah well there's no link in the rundown i sent it to you dumbass no i'm seeing you sent me you sent me three things and that was not one of them yes i did oh i said it to dave oh who's the dumbass now dumbass i'm sorry well i didn't mean that it's your It's a dumb asshole for it.

Sorry, Randy. Oh, man. That's all right. I'm botging it. He just sent me Madal Ranchos. He's botching it. Let's talk sense, Stranger Things. Mattel Ranchos.

I want to get this, you know. Here it is. I got you. I got you. That's on me. And maybe we talked strange of things with Dylan. Not producer week. With Dylan tomorrow.

Makes a little more sense. Yeah, that does think a little more sense. Well, Payman, Milan Far said, hey, United. Is this a joke? I just flew five plus hours in first class. and this bowl of sadness is what you serve me for dinner between the 3D printed mystery meat

the cafeteria cheese cubes and the whole tomato I need a chain soda cut this is genuinely unbelievable is this genuinely unbelievable that tomato is bothering me the whole tomato is a little unbelievable zoom in on that

hold on a sec but like okay you can't say it's a mystery meat it's clearly fucking turkey yeah that the that's the least of his worries honestly what sorry for the cheese cubes like

I will also say this. Not every first class, like, flight gets a meal. Facts. Like, you don't always get a meal. Is this that bad? I've been on an upper left corner beverage or whatever that little bottle is up there. Oh, never mind. I forgot.

Don't worry. I got it. Like, you're flying first class. Like, you can choose your meal beforehand, can't you? I thought that's how that works. Like, can't you go through and, like, choose an option? Oh, that's dressing. Oh, okay.

I had a little lemon dressing. Yeah, let him have some lemon. Get you some lemon dressing, huh? Is that a rogue black olive? I don't know what that is. Like, I think this guy just didn't choose his meal beforehand, and they were like, here, dude, this is what we got. Look, yeah, the tomato is egregious.

It was a pretty thick cut cucumbers, too. Yeah, cucumbers are thick cut. Yeah, but like. Beams. Or a little thick cut. Is it enough to, like, put on, like, it's not just tweeting at United and saying, like, hey, this meal was below par for your standards.

You're doing the, hey, space at United. I want all my followers to see this. Did they respond? Also, who is this guy? Dude, he's just a guy. Click him. He's got the blue check marks.

He's a distinguished scientist at Google. He does computational imaging, machine learning, and vision. Tweets are his personal opinions. They may change or disappear over time. Oh, man. So this guy's really shaping the future. Not looking good. Let's go to milanfar.org.

I don't like that he has a website. A dot org website seems like a little too much. Yeah, Randy, go ahead and read the philosophical transaction of the Royal Society article he penned here. You're not only to complain about your first class meal on your first class flight publicly. You have to do that behind closed doors so people don't think you're an asshole.

Because it's sneaky of flex. It's kind of like your kids. You complain about them in private. That's right. Not on Twitter. That's what that guy's biggest problem was. He should have been bitching about this to his wife. Hey, go up.

He did something that wild move. this is a brett like from four years ago move go up to his um oh his header the AI generated he does do machine learning which could be like you know sort of AI so i think he if if anyone he might have a leg of stand on to using AI imaging as a if anything he should distance from it now he's just like asking people to like he wants people that oh i saw your avi or saw your little uh your banner banner what's that about well actually i do machine learning he reposted his own tweet that's what is he getting support

oh let's see i don't know he probably is dude we're sorry that i think if we can learn anything from today's episode it's that if you're going to complain which i do a lot you need to be careful about the way that you go about doing it there should be like a there's got to be strict scrutiny from yourself when you're tweeting about your kids anything that might be seen as a complaint you should like really like

tweet it out draft it and then send it to the group chat or send it to your wife and the group chat and just be like hey how's this coming off and then if you're gonna bitch about first class honestly like there should be like there's kind of like a per se rule like don't do it don't do it don't do it don't do it it looks like people like agreeing with him

and then also other people just flexing on him flying other airlines with better food is pretty much what is uh what's in the replies i had a um we flew business class over to london once and i had the short rib for my dinner on the flight because they were out of the vegetarian uh ravioli option that i had previously asked for i know where this is going and they wanted to give they wanted to give the vegetarian option to a woman sitting near us who was an actual vegetarian and i said i get it i can definitely do short rib sounds great i fall asleep on that flight for like six hours and wake up had I woken up two minutes later,

I would have had to leave the company out of embarrassment because I would have been the guy who pooped himself on the plane. You just jump off the plane. I got the worst food poisoning I've ever had and had to sprint to the bathroom. It's real time. Dirk. First one in 2026, everybody.

Me barnacles weren't properly cleaned and cooked. You know, Delta's doing Shake Shack now. That's fucking tight. That's nice. I saw this deployed recently and it really surprised me. I guess you have to select it before the flight, but the girl opened up her Shake Shack, and it looked amazing on the flight.

That's, Randy and I went to Shake Shack one time. That is true. I'm just thinking that was a really risky move for me to go into Twitter replies on a live episode. It could have been a lot of Hey, Grocks. A lot of Grogs.

I feel like you're tweeting it. I know. Are there any, I haven't seen that, I don't know if I want to see this right now, but like, are there anybody, is there anybody doing like dudes? Like, Hey, Grock, put this dude with his,

make this dude carry eight folding chairs and some gray sweatpants for some reason. You know, Dave, I just clicked over into Grox Media tab, and I have to say, oh, okay, yeah, there is one. Is there some print? Is there a lot of...

Put some print on Reagan. There are some dudes in micro bikinis. All right. Yeah. It's still a gross and bad place. When we flew for the company and I was asking everybody, I said, hey, because I kind of,

it was for the New York trip. And I said, what does everybody want for their meals? Randy responded on Slack. He said, hey, do they have anything to accommodate my diet? I'm a vegetarian. I didn't say that. I remember that.

What is that? Is that a typo? I remember that. Was that a typo? What is that? Actually, I said that to the patron people. Whatever you did, it worked is you're getting gifts. Yeah.

Years later. Dave, we got to get you on a trip. Yeah. At whatever cost it takes. But they're expecting at least as much as I did or more. No. Honestly, they actually said that we need to scale it back next time. you showed a little bit too much.

Yeah, Randy, I'm sure, do you have anything you're going to post this week for the trip? I'm sure you got something in the hopper. I did do, I was thinking about doing an unboxing video for the timeline of the El Alto, but I did not. I want to try this Alato.

Oh, yeah, I'll give you. It looks like their version, it looks like their version of that other tall one that's expensive, the Don Julio. Oh, okay. Is the bottle nice? It's nice. It looks like a, very tall,

agave leaf is what it's based off of because I asked about it. And Al-Alto is because that's where it's grown. The highlands you know, Al-Alto means the tall. Oh, good point. So that's why that's a tall bottle. Well, fantastic. Because I was kind of hoping Dylan was like watching it

live and was going to like message us about the video. Like, please don't post it. Dude, please don't post the eggs, dude. I think you post the eggs. I'm serious, dude. I think you're within your rights to post the egg video. That's all I'm saying. Dude.

He was just eating slonkers. He should have been housing slonkers on the couch. Yeah. That's not him. I need a feast today for lunch, boys. Yeah, what's the plan? I think I might pick up some tacos. And I don't think I'm talking from across the street.

I think I got to go to a further location and get some real food. You know, you can walk. I know you're not a big walk to lunch guy. Nah. You can hit the, uh, Takaria 10. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

The walk is like shockingly quick. I forgot about that. Like 10 minutes. Yeah. Or Torchis right down the street. No one's going to Torchis. No, if I'm going to go anywhere, it's Papolota. Don't start, don't do a bit where you're the Torchies guy.

I do like the brush fire taco. It is good. Did you hear what Trump did after the Venezuela stuff was over that night? Did you get Torchies? There's a video of him on X. telling Siri to play Dunza Maduro by an AI artist

that I think was Brett. What? I don't know. Is this true or you just made that up? I was like, until you said, I think it was Brett. Is Brett,

is he just raking in dough on Spotify with AI? You could convince me that Brett has an artist profile on Spotify that he puts his AI music on. I will. In hopes that it will make money one day. Let me tell you something about, uh,

all that music. I was trying to put, you know, I was like, I want a Spanish song, like, hype song for my, my Mexico post. All that music, you said. All those artists are Puerto Rican. Like, they are, Puerto Rico has, like, a monopoly. Puerto Rico. They, they have a lot of, like, bangers. Every, like, major song is Puerto Rican. And that bothers you why? It doesn't. I just, I thought they'd be. And you're clearly really mad about it. Why? Because I thought I was, I wanted to post it for Mexico. And I'm like, well, I'm not going to post a Puerto Rican artist. I'm in Mexico, like, stories and stuff.

It's probably the bad funny effect, dude. He probably inspired a bunch of people to make certified bang. No, this is pre-bad bunny. Speaking of, do you want to give your Super Bowl halftime? Pretty bad bunny. You put on the rundown, Randy Steeman on the Super Bowl halftime show.

Do you want to do that tomorrow? Yeah. Said you're really mad about it. I'll put that right after, uh, I talk about stranger things. Is that alternate half-time show happening? I hope. We're going to have to have somebody cover.

Yeah. I want to know. I'm going to watch it my arms crossed being like this is fucking awesome this is so good we got Lee Greenwood it says the all-American halftime show they got the rejects

it's celebrating faith family and freedom all right hell yeah they haven't sent out any information about this I'm worried that it's not working dude I'm gonna be watching they're looking for donations

the puppy bowl in the kitty kid and Bissell halftime show so I don't even know what you guys are talking about I do like what character is this This is a guy that doesn't care about sports, but is trying to be like, I like puppies.

I do put on the... You probably didn't even watch the Steelers game last night. I only watched the Bears game, and I do put on the puppy bowl every so often. It's fucking adorable, David. Yeah, it's sick. And it's on all... I don't think it's that great. It's on all day, too.

I think they could have a better product. They don't run good routes. Yeah. It's too chaotic. Hey, they're roughing the passer a little bit too much. All right. I guess doing it's back tomorrow. Look at, there's that picture of me housing a burger

at the meetup. You unhinged your jaw. Oh, man. Shout to Timo. Hell yeah. I thought I saw Timo walking on the street the other day. I got really excited. He just had headphones in, listening to Russian death metal.

And Mongolian throat singing. Yeah, Mongolian throat singing. Which is crazy that, like, that's become such a meme now. And, like, Dimo would just like like that. I brought up once. And he was like, yeah, this is why I was. listen to. He's him, dude. Yeah, he's him. He is him. All right. Well, we'll see tomorrow. Bye. Oh, hey, also tomorrow, uh, oh, sorry, I thought it was Tuesday. Yeah,

we'll see you tomorrow. Bye. Bye. That sucked. Tuesday. First one of the year. Tarr. First one of the year. You know what I'm going to be.
