And we're back.
It's Thursday morning.
Circlein' Back podcast.
My name is David.
Welcome to the show.
Producing today will be Randall Trembachy.
Hi, Dave.
Hello.
Don't you think I look handsome today?
Why are you always fishing for compliments, man?
Seriously, dude.
I'm not the one that's always fishing for compliments.
Who else is fishing for compliments?
Who else is fishing for compliments?
This guy over here.
What?
What do he say yesterday that he was trying to fish for compliments in the office?
Oh, in the office?
What did I say?
You're talking about how like your back wasn't good or something like.
Oh, no, you didn't think that color looked good on you.
That one shirt.
Oh, yeah.
I don't think the shirt looks good.
You wanted us to postpone the show so you could go on and change.
No, that, that's part not true.
I didn't.
I thought that color kind of washed me out a bit.
That's what it was.
The tannist guy in the office thought a color washed him out.
then we were like no it actually makes you make you look more tan hold on hold on why did why did what does it say that what
mr the whiner's here he is michael winer hi guys it's great to be here hard money mica is

I know you don't like that.
Oh my God.
I did just get,
before he noticed it did show.
Don't air them out.
It was a good friend of ours.
We've had these now for like seven years.
Did you point out the mistake?
I did not.
You should have.
Like,
hey,
listen,
it was a nice gesture,
but.
That's a good Micah.
Yeah,
thanks.
It's a good cup and I can't use it.
So who gave it to you?
Was it like two girls or?
That's good.
Yeah,
but welcome to the podcast.
Man,
it's great to be here with you.
Boys are back.
Yeah, it's great to be here with my absolute boys.
Just dogs, man.
Micah's been in the conference room just banging out calls.
Yeah.
We got the dual-minder thing going, yeah.
Just slinging hard money everywhere.
Dooley Mons.
Hard money, Micah, in the building.
What a treat.
You brought monitors here?
Yeah.
I left my headset at home.
I thought you guys would roast me if I was sitting in the conference room doing that.
That's so sad.
No, well.
Yeah.
We roast people for,
just eating food so yeah you'd probably get rusted for the heads that's true yeah great to see you
guys always good to be sitting next to dave and not next to dylan uh he's too good looking
again a slight to me again no offense today that's okay man you're looking good you're looking good
you've been working out no not really i'm just thanks micha for chasing kids around no problem man
feels uh feels uh feels great to be with you guys dill had a great time a couple weeks ago with uh
the fellas at madel ranchos i had an excellent how does randy walk away rise i'm about to plug maddell
Ranchos. One more time.
Hey, you're not recording, by the way.
Red button's not on, Hauss.
Is that going to be? We're live, though, right? Is that going to be a problem?
Okay, okay. I will make it work.
Are we going to make it work? Can we make it work?
We're already live. We're cooking. Sorry, Ray. I didn't mean to call you out on the heels of Micah calling you. I just noticed it.
Yeah, we're recording video, so don't worry. Yeah, we're good. It's a video show.
Yeah, visual show as well. Dylan Schifery.
And I'm pretty stoked to be here. Yeah, dude. Park said, I went to a, a, a, a,
little fifth grade graduation this morning.
Parks is a, he's a graduate, dude.
They did the whole, like, walk of the stage and they caps and everything.
It was mad cute.
Did he put any, did he put like, I'm a telephrico on top of his hat?
No, we had a couple of six-sevans up there, kids doing that.
That's still a thing?
Not really.
I was really hoping to get an inappropriate six-seven reference at some point on the pod,
but I guess that's...
You can see me, it's still in play for us.
Yeah, we're famously late to everything.
Yeah, that's why it's funny.
Yeah.
We're even late to recording our own pod.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
Anyway, it was mad, cute.
I'm so tired of the Democrats.
Got off, dude.
Let go.
And, uh, yeah, that's pretty, that was pretty, I gave.
He looked mad cool in that hat, dude.
Gave him a loud whistle, you know?
You got to stop making it all about you with that whistle.
Dude, I had to show up to other parents.
You're like the Phil Jackson of,
the fifth grade graduation.
It's exactly that I was thinking.
God,
did you hit the two finger?
Yeah,
thing.
Oh,
oh, yeah.
Nice.
I can never do that.
I'm nice with it.
I learned with four.
You got to do four to start.
I think Phil uses the opposite to or something.
But I could do two pinkies,
but I'm not going to do it now.
Okay.
You got to fold the tongue over.
A lot of people don't know that.
I can't whistle at all.
That's what the fingers are doing.
Anyway,
it doesn't matter.
We can move off.
That's what the fingers are doing, huh?
You ever whistle while you twerk?
Whistle while you twerk?
while you twerk
you missed a note
but you were on
you're okay
it's more of a
bo bo bo bo bo bo bo bo bo bo bo
I think you're wrong dude
how's the rest of it go
look up the lyrics
let's do a dramatic
Can we run the tape on that
I think Dylan got it right
from where I'm sitting
he didn't
I don't really care
why don't you sit next
if you're gonna glaze him
the whole episode
glaze me daddy
look at that
Dylan's got his old little
I don't like you
have so much room
for your stall
it's great dude
You need, you're going to have your little car caddy here.
Micah, how do you feel about my car caddy that I'm going to get?
I didn't hear about this.
We haven't clip this yet.
Something that bothers me, it always has, is having to carry a lot of things in from the car.
Right.
Do you hate that too?
As a father, I'm sure you know the feeling of it, like, you have like stuff in your arms and it's like, you know, you spill, you spill your water trying to like maneuver.
It's just, I think about car caddy, like a rigid, like, we'll call it, uh, um, you call it, uh,
16 by 16
with a handle on it
with a little pouch
for a water bottle
maybe some
slots to put some other stuff
you can see how the
I don't hate it
you can see how that be very useful
in lieu of a bag or a backpack
or even a tote
in lieu of
I don't like the backpack
because then you put stuff in
and it bounces around
dude
and like this guy's on my fucking
you get home
and the last thing you want to do
is meticulously fill your backpack
you just want to throw shit
together and yeah i think a cubby would we're right we're riding the same wave right now these
guys hold that pull that up well most people are not on that way well most people aren't me and micah
that's not as fair look at that one thing that one's got a little self-western you know one thing that
i love about the the large vehicle that i have film that look how happy she looks bro looking over at
her caddy god damn she's like this park still sits in a car seat right or booster no no
He graduated from the booster.
We'll see, the problem with that photo is this woman is holding her caddy in the shotgun seat, but your child would be there.
No, no.
But the problem here in this photo, Micah, is that she's reaching for her phone while she's driving.
Kids don't write shotgun until they're like...
Oh, okay.
12.
Well, I fully endorse this for you.
13. Parks are too little for a shotgun.
One of the great things about the big car that I have, shouts to the Hyundai Palisade fam out there, is I have enough room for a trash game.
I've always wanted a car trash can.
Yeah.
And it rules.
Yeah.
Put it in between,
it's in between the back two seats because we've got a shots of captain chair,
bam.
And,
you know,
I've got room for a tissue box so I can blow my nose.
And then I have a place to put the trash.
I'm,
I'm the modified or I guess improvised trash can guy.
I'll keep an empty can in there and I'll just start stuffing stuff down in it.
It's good.
I'll leave it in there for a couple of days.
and then I'm like,
oh,
now it's time to get a new one.
No,
my kids would not abide
by the trash can.
My car,
the back seat is just,
it's goldfish.
It's,
whatever treat they got
after T-ball games,
it's just,
they're just down on the floor.
It's a mess back there.
It's real fun,
real fun.
But again,
but maybe if you had a caddy,
the catty doesn't help that.
Yeah,
sure does.
You could make one of those
compartments of trash bin.
Yeah.
The caddy could do all kinds of fun stuff.
We've debated the caddy.
This is probably the fourth time now.
And I still am not sold.
It's okay.
Most of the backers are with me.
They don't have the swag to pull it off.
For the original touches out there, Micah,
can you hit us with a t-tot-to-tress?
Sure, Randy.
Do you have a can we can throw so it can make a off-camera noise
in the trit-tru-trash trash?
I don't know if that was good.
I don't even remember doing that.
I mean, I know it was the thing, but I don't know how I did it.
You got a lot to talk about things.
It was mainly you calling people.
Yeah, you weren't referring to actual cans of trash.
Physical trash.
You're just calling things trash.
It was mainly fits.
You would point out the trash fit.
Yeah, it's a good thing.
Let's get Brett in here.
Good thing I don't work here with Brett.
Yeah.
He looks good today.
He's got his...
He's fully leaning into the flip.
He got new flip flops.
He's got his rugby polo on.
He'll hit you with a rugby polo.
Yeah, he's a big fan.
Yeah, that's a good look for him.
Was he wearing one at the ACC the other day?
Did I see that?
Yeah, Stratman.
A rugby promo?
They didn't actually play a full around.
They just did the range and hit some, you know, putting green.
But he was wearing a full of rugby polo.
That's an interesting move.
Yeah.
Not many people are doing it.
I wouldn't have done it.
He wouldn't have.
Speaking of things that you wouldn't have done, Dave, can you do a little more of the Dillon impression?
Did you enjoy that?
It's going mega viral yet?
it's probably doesn't have that's one of those clips that's really for the listeners and not really
going to get us in a fan service yeah it's fan service it was pretty funny um i watched it and i was like
very critical myself and i was like you know once i get the feet up on the table that's when i kind of hit
the stride um but it was an okay dylan dylan's not an easy guy to do um so i've heard so i mean yeah
but all and all people are people are liking it um i was going to go through every one of dylan's bits and
but we got a number of them in maybe for Halloween or something you just go as Dylan I'm doing I'm
Dylaning right now do I sit like that when when you really like got your back against the wall
and you can really feel Randy and I just kind of coming for that ass you're just getting
you'll kind of you'll kind of or there's this which is like real standoffish or there's just like
completely like let's just get out of here we're in and you're just yeah okay or or my my personal
favorite is you're just over here tweeting and in the middle of the show because you're like all right
well these guys just checked out these guys these guys are just it's dave's weekend why do i need to pay
attention to this yeah it's just dave's weekend i don't care i don't care you're just going to hang out

approval i just posted it yeah yeah i did i did like that yeah well i like that a lot deal with
Yeah, I'm not going to deal with it because I like it.
You know what I'm going to deal with?
What are you going to deal with?
I'm going to deal with my Meridian putter, probably this weekend because I do have the opportunity to play Blue Lake out in Marble Falls.
Are you going to go hit the Blue Bonnet Cafe?
Every time I've tried to go there, it's been so slammed that I just just end up going to water burgers.
It's a popular joint.
It is.
I've had it once.
It was very good.
You don't go to the Chili's, the Lakefront Chili's?
Been to that one.
That's a great one.
That is it all time.
Did you guys see the new commercial for Chili's with Lizzo?
No.
It's quite good.
No.
Missed it.
She's singing the song now.
Okay.
This is the Key West, by the way.
Look at Dylan, bringing it back to the reed.
This is the Key West.
It's made in America, by the way.
Love to hear that.

Listener voicemails dropping on Patreon tomorrow.
We recorded that.
Hey, I sent out a quip.
You familiar with quip?
There's no way you're familiar with it.
It's a new wave, dude.
Everybody's quipping.
and Patreon added a feature.
It's essentially like
creators can do like tweets on their thing.
Okay.
And I sent one out, just letting people know.
Michael Winer.
You mean X's?
Yeah, X's.
Thank you.
I said, Michael Winer's in the building
for Thursday morning show at 11.
Hashtaguergol.
Let's read some of the responses.
Oh, boy.
This may not be good.
These are all backers who pay for our paywall content.
This guy says, have him sit in for the mail-in while he's there.
The compliment.
They want more money.
That's good.
That's good.
is when can we get another Micah's music minute
that's actually 45 minutes long.
This guy says spit on it, Bay.
I don't know what that means.
I think you do.
This guy just says hard money, Micah.
This guy says real Micah or verified Micah.
Or two Micah.
Man, these are deep cuts.
And then the last one,
oh hell, they done let the battle chode bad boy
into the function.
Oh, man.
Nobody called me the battle chode bad boy.
You're not a bad boy.
I know, that's got to be a typo.
What's his name?
That's Jack.
Hey, Jack.
Pull up, Jack.
Yeah.
You don't want any.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, dude.
You don't want the smoke dog.
Meet me in Temecula.
You never, let's go.
Meet me in Flugerville.
You never know what's going to happen on the clips.
The quips are electric.
That's what shit really pops off.
Man, I need to optimize my backing.
Why, you're not already, huh?
Not at the moment.
No.
Interesting.
That's why I need to.
Yeah.
Okay.
He's a type of dude to sign up.
for a free trial and cancel it right after.
Dylan, can you go ahead and add that to run it back, please?
Sure.
I will.
Give me some time.
Go ahead, buddy.
You know what?
Can I, can I, can I, are you guys doing right back on every episode?
No.
No.
Just the end of the week.
Yeah.
You know, I invented that.
True.
It's true.
A reminder.
You did.
Yes.
About five minutes before we started.
Would you note that in the first too much dip?
I said, let me do a segment called run it back where I run it back at the end.
Yeah, it's a good second.
It's caught on.
It's good.
I think about you every time we do it.
Thanks, man.
Yeah.
Hey, I've been working on a new impression.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
All right.
Hold on.
Okay.
He's got the water bottle.
Guess what he is.
I need some more of that.
Can you guess what that is?
I can't say I know.
Hold, hold.
Let me give you.
This is my pre-brew coffee here.
Let me hear.
Probably just confused him.
Okay.
You're doing a Randy bit.
I'm a data center.
He's a data center.
We're doing all the water.
You've seen these things?
They're popping up everywhere, and there's nothing you can do.
Gotcha.
How do you feel about that?
What you just witnessed there?
I'm a little unclear as to what's going on.
I mean, I understand.
They utilize a number of gallons of water each day, allegedly.
Somebody tweeted that a congressperson,
I don't remember who they were talking about,
probably Teddy ball game or something,
but said he would build a data center in his ass if they paid them enough.
I don't know if that seemed possible.
Do you think it is?
Probably not.
No, with this interesting visual.
Oh, there you go.
He's doing it too.
Yeah.
Look at that.
That's good.
And because, you know, there's like an insatiable thirst for more water.
Right.
Right.
It's a bit in progress.
I mean, so essentially if I just typed in like, hey, I have some turkey and some cheese and some bread in my home.
Can you give me a recipe for a sandwich using chat GPT or clod or whatever?
I probably would have used this much.
water. Yeah. Exactly.
But relative to what, you know, almond milk, that no one drinks often, that takes a lot more.
How do you milk an almond, Dave? How do you do it? You're the one who drinks it?
I don't really drink it. I put it in stuff. Yeah. So you're not consuming it via drinking?
I mean, I don't, are you? I don't like, I don't pour it in a glass and drink.
Come all, man. It's in my smoothies. He's not a soy boy. That's what you're thinking. I know we have a
segment about bananas later, Micah, but I think it's completely different, but you're the banana
boy. What do you think about Dylan only using three quarters of banana for a smoothie?
It's something that doesn't affect our lives. That implies I'm like tossing a quarter of banana
the trash. What are you doing with a quarter of the banana? Okay, great question. What I do is I freeze
my bananas before my smoothies. I cut them into a fourths. Okay. This is totally reasonable.
Thank you. There is no rule that says you must use one full banana in your smoothies.
Exactly.
If anything, I found that three quarters is about the perfect amount of banana.
Yeah, you know what?
I think you're right.
Sometimes I will eat a banana and I'll get to the last quarter.
I won't want it.
There it is, dude.
But then it's like, can I fit this last quarter in my mouth.
Dude, Car caddies.
I know you can.
Carcaddies and bananas.
Mike and I just same wave, dude.
You guys are on the same wave.
I don't.
I totally endorse that position.
It's just.
Yeah, I looked it up.
Mike is right.
There's absolutely no rule.
requires you to use a full banana on a smoothie.
There's no rule whatsoever.
Oh, Randy.
Wow.
What else are you putting in your smoothies these days?
These days.
Almond milk, as we discussed, like a little spoonful of Greek yogurt.
What's funny about that?
Keep going.
Crunchy peanut butter.
A scoop of chocolate whey protein.
Again, three quarters of a frozen banana.
Sometimes I throw some frozen blueberries in there, also some spinach.
That sounds great.
And we'll call it, we'll call it a smoothie.
Not kale, though.
Fuck kale.
Cale can kiss my ass.
I hate Cail.
I'm out on it.
He's out on it.
All right.
You want to start the show?
I thought we did.
We kind of did.
Harambe.
Remember that?
Yeah.
One time at our old company, we used to all work together.
Randy wasn't there, but Randy was probably in high school.
We were at this old company and we did this thing.
We got to sell these.
We got to capitalize this.
It's the barambay thing.
You guys think it was tragic.
But 10 years ago, 100 bucks is why this is topical.
They gave out 100 bucks for whoever got a t-shirt that we sold or whatever.
And Will DeFries, a friend of the show, washed media zone.
He came up with the idea to make a make Harambe alive again shirt.
And to that, I will always laugh when I think of that.
Because it's a funny idea.
That's a good one.
It's gas, yeah.
We sold that one and also a Cincinnati Harambe shirt.
Cincinnati Harambe.
I didn't think that was as good.
No offense to the man or whoever came up with that.
I think that was, I'll tell you who was a big fan of Cincinnati Rombay shirt.
Jason, bro.
Yeah.
He loved this.
But then again, there wasn't an idea that he didn't absolutely love.
That's a good point.
I was thinking about him a couple days ago because we were having this conversation how Austin's
become a great burger town.
It really has.
There's a number of great burger options in this town.
And one of the first incentives he pitched, one of the first things was, got to do a burger
challenge.
Burger challenge.
And we were kind of like, yeah, I don't know, man.
And we didn't end up doing it, which no fault of his.
We were probably just lazy.
But a burger challenge, he had the foresight to think, like, this is going to be a great burger town.
And he was right.
I think his angle on that was like Austin was one of the only cities in the country that had like an in and out, a five guys.
There were.
Correct.
There were like five.
Shake, shake.
Yeah.
You're right about that.
We were special in that we should do a burger challenge.
And now we've got a.
I don't know.
There's a lot of good burgers.
Do you guys have like any food bits on this show?
Yeah.
Dylan cracks a, what are those nuts?
Was it walnut?
Sheld walnuts sometimes.
Uh-huh.
And also Dylan puts only three-fourths banana on a smoothie.
That's a pretty big part.
Right.
I was just going to say like any like you guys do like a one-bite challenge of something.
Well, pizza, we go to different pizza places.
We actually have an app for it too.
Yeah.
Oh, is it called?
Oh, okay.
Everybody knows the rules.
Yeah, you've seen it.
I have.
Okay, cool.
We can't do many.
Well, it is a guy named Dave.
That's right.
But we can't do many because we can only do it once per week per Dave's rules.
Zah card.
Zah card, yeah.
So it's, it kind of handcuffs us a little.
I mean, I just think there's, there's an opportunity there with Dylan's Taco Tuesday or something.
Taco Tuesday.
We should trademark that.
There's something there.
No, I remember at Grandex, I pitched comedians and cars eating Arbys.
I don't think.
Nobody thought.
Everybody kind of laughed like that.
And then it was like, no, we should do it.
And there was like, ah, I can't.
I got to go pick my kids up or something.
Yeah, yeah.
The burger challenge, though.
I mean, that's still on the table.
But what's the challenge?
Just finding the best burger.
That's good.
Like, yeah, that is a good burger.
You kind of have to, the thing is you've got to kind of challenge the purveyors of those
burgers to let them know, like, we're challenging you to make the best burger.
either that or the challenge is to eat five burgers in one sitting.
It's not really a challenge to decide which burger is best.
Yeah, that's what Jason built it as, the burger challenge.
We could really do any kind of concept we want to go with.
Jason, if you're watching this, you come by the studio and join us any day.
For real.
Jason's a medal.
Bring some Slotsky sandwiches.
Bring some ranch waters.
He'll bring some beers.
Remember that my birthday?
We just went in the conference room and drank ranch waters for two hours.
It's awesome.
Left productive day.
I had to hang out and like sober up before I went home.
Well, sorry, I'm going to be late.
I was drinking tequila all day.
He was Zen Den era.
He liked the Zen Den.
He loved the Zen Den.
I love the Zen Den.
He posted up in there.
Oh, man.
Yeah, anyway, so Harambe, White House did a tweet.
Is that out of bounds?
You're a political guy.
I did see some commentary that the best part about that tweet is that they never mentioned that he was a gorilla in it.
It just talks about the spirit of Harambe.
I don't know if you can pull it up, Randy, but.
Yeah.
The Cincinnati Harambeys was not a great shirt, but Jason loved it.
And, but to make Arambe alive again, really was good.
Really was good.
Yeah.
Read it.
Watch, Randy, go ahead, read it for us.
Today, we really.
Remember a legend. On this day in history, Harambe would have celebrated another birthday.
Oh, really? Today's his birthday? Not the day he was killed? Yeah, I was wrong about that.
Oh, well, no. Get to the next birthday. An icon that became part of internet history, American culture, and an entire generation's timeline.
Tomorrow marks 10 years since we lost him. Ten years since the moment, the world stopped scrolling and collectively mourned something bigger than a meme.
He became a symbol of loyalty, strength, chaos, unity, and the strange beauty of the internet bringing
millions of people together for one cause, never forgetting Harambe.
Wait, real quick, did he get slimed on his birthday?
I don't know.
Everyone remembers where they were when they heard the news, and somehow, a decade later,
his legacy still lives on.
At least during his birthday weekend.
Day after his birthday, he got slimed.
Gone, but never forgotten.
Rest easy to a true patriot.
827th, 1999.
What's the emoji there before the American flag?
It's a dove with a like olive branch.
Peaceful, yeah.
May 28th, 2016.
Two things.
Yeah.
Can I add a disclaimer real quick, Dave?
Yes.
This has been an official statement from the White House.
Right.
Yeah.
I got to say, go down a little bit.
Just two points we don't have to really dig in on.
A, first, Randy, that made the baby the seal.
Oh my God.
Now I can't talk.
That's the best thing you've ever read.
I space jammed you.
You totally did.
He took his time.
You crushed that.
Second, if I told you like a week ago that the White House is going to honor a fallen true patriot,
but I didn't give you any more info, would you have been like, oh, no, where's this going?
I would have assumed Kid Rock died.
Okay.
I got to say, of all things, this is a well-done tweet.
It's a classy tweet.
I don't know if we needed it.
What do you think?
Do you think a Democrat would have done this?
No.
What do you, no, say specifically.
I do think it's interesting how the White House has commandeered the word patriot.
Like it's theirs now.
Like anyone who sides with them as a patriot.
The other side is they're not for America.
You're a mobile phone provider.
We know that Harambe was an avid viewer of The Apprentice.
Yes.
Do you remember that rumor that Trump watched like the, he would watch guerrillas fight
and like stand right close to the TV?
It was fake, but like there was a time.
That was out there like a long time ago.
It was just funny to think about.
Like, that's all he watched was like the.
He does watch a lot of cable news.
National Geographic.
It's not a lot different.
Well, Harambe.
That was a fun time to be working on the internet, but we'll say.
It was a fun time.
Yeah.
He brought us together.
We sold a shit ton of T-shirts.
We did.
Did we?
Harambe shirts?
The Harambe shirts flew off the rent.
No, we did.
They did.
I sold like 30-0.
Somebody called.
No, no, no, we sold tons.
We made tens of thousands of dollars.
We sold more than that.
There's no fucking way that's true.
Somebody get buried on the phone.
I don't know.
I thought it flopped big time.
No, no, no, no, no.
Didn't have a company.
Didn't have a company.
What?
I think we sold like single digit of the Cincinnati Harambe.
No, I think that wasn't a hundred.
Which isn't a lot.
Make Harambe alive again.
You had make.
We sold a ton of tank tops.
We had a router for dardies.
People were wearing those darts.
In the summer of 2016 on campus, you couldn't go to a Dardy without a make a Rambay alive again.
Did we sell more of those or more legalized cocaine shirts?
Legalized cocaine.
Yeah, those went off.
Those came back, by the way.
Not through us.
Yeah, not to us.
Should have trademark that.
I mean, Barstow was selling back-to-back World War champ shirts like a couple years ago.
So, yeah.
Just what it is.
Did you see big t-shirt Matt was quoted in the New York Times on that?
On back-to-back?
Yeah, there was an article.
recently about the back-to-back world champs or something i did not see that um i i searched the new york
times matt sussneros because he was he was quoted on something um dude i would stay up at the grand
ex office might have been washington post until like nine p m filling orders because we sold so many
of those shares it was crazy was the uh intern who was living there just like waiting for you to leave
no this was this was before that
This is way before that.
This was like 2011, this is like 2012 when they really went off.
Oh, cool, man.
Does he may have $2?
I can, uh, okay.
They won't.
I can confirm he was quoted.
What that quote is remains to be seeing the Washington Post.
It's the Reagan Bush that's coming back.
Oh, okay.
Interesting.
Sorry.
That's okay.
Same kind of guys wearing that shit.
Correct.
I'll tell you this much.
right now.
Oh, the dumb zone is live on X right now.
Do you want to just tune into them?
Just kind of critique their show.
I like their show.
Dumbzone's great.
You know,
it else is great as my poncho.
It is.
You see what I'm wearing today?
Awesome.
This is the one I think that got them started.
It's time for a spring refresh.
Put away the winter gear.
Get out the summer and the spring stuff.
I know I have.
This is kind of my,
this is my road trip shirt.
I like to put it on,
wear it in the car because it's very breathable.
And it's also one that I don't sweat in because it is so breathable and I'll just hang it back up.
I have the long sleeve version of that and I absolutely love it.
This is the original shirt started the brand.
Breathable fabric, quick drawing material, hidden pockets, even a built-in lens cloth.
What are you putting your hidden pockets?
That's for you to find out.
A lot of times it's tissue.
Oh, okay.
Sometimes it's Zyrtec.
Oh, man.
You understand the reference he just did?
We have an alien thing with, uh, it's a,
It's a whole. Maybe we'll get into it later.
Yeah, sorry.
They're soft, breathable, quick drying, so they're perfect for hot days or long days outside.
Spring fishing trips, travel, long days outside, every day wear.
They've even got the Western shirts.
I know Dylan likes that one.
The old Pearl Snap Punch is a Texas-based brand.
So you've got them pearl snaps.
You got that denim one, right?
The Marfa, I believe you're talking about.
Is that the Marfa? Yeah.
The light-washed denim one.
You guys really soft.
You remember that time that Dylan mugged me at my own party?
Did I?
I was wearing my Western cut.
Poncho with Pearl Snaps and Dylan came in wearing the exact same shirt. I'm sorry,
man. He mugged the shit out of me. Like, Michael, you're too hard on yourself. No, man. You're too good
looking, don't you wear a shirt well? Michael, you got second place in a jujitsu turn.
Seriously. You have nothing to be ashamed of. Absolutely nothing. Actually, play second in two different
weight classes, but a lot of people don't know that. Sorry, back to our friends at Poncho. Love the shirts.
High quality, very nice. Check it out. If you want to look like Dorn or original D-Man.
or Mikey wines, hard money, Micah.
Mikey wines, I believe it.
He shouts to Connor.
A lightweight, comfortable shirt for spring and summer.

Go try one out.
did you guys tap into that tailgators game last night or just me i missed it i knew that i knew that
you were dialed in now's because of all the uh the commentary you were adding to the group chat
well yeah i thought we had a controversy what was it uh alvin kamara went out there and i thought
he was hurt he uh started grabbing his hammy he was linked up with the first bass coach who's known
as the dancing first base coach he thought he's going to have to report to camp me like sorry
And I was like, this is about to be the thing that breaks down the banana ball.
They brought out an NFL, an active NFL player.
And he goes out there, does some bits and gets hurt.
It was all part of the show.
Damn.
Did you do a stanky-lawed?
He went out there and did a two-step.
Shout out, rest in peace, DJ Unk.
Okay.
Yeah.
But Alvin Kamar out there.
They put him on first base, let him run.
Okay.
How many dance routines did you see while you were watching?
The thing that jumped out at me, and the reason I like watching it from time to time,
there's always something new that catches my attention like the the home plate umpire
when uh he's called time we're out there to dust off the plate as umps will do from time to time
you know yeah he bent over dusted it off and then just got went back to business or well no he
he kind of held that position for a while i'm like what's he doing like why is he he's really
cleaning this thing off you just never know when it's been annibol and then he popped up and uh some
music dropped and he just started busting down on him yeah oh hell yeah did that affect the
Mitch clock? No, no, it didn't really. It's almost like the game just stopped for this
performer. Yeah, I just for the record, we're talking about banana ball. What should take on banana ball?
I think it's trash. Come on. Man, what is this? I don't. It's fun. Was the game that was airing.
I stumbled upon it last night for a minute. Was that live or is it recorded? No, that was live.
They don't have a live bug up on the monitor. So I are on the screen. I said that with confidence.
I think it's live.
I just, I don't, I mean, look, I know, I know there's 100,000 people there.
So people must like it.
I just don't get it.
I don't understand the scoreboard.
You know, it's like one run, one trick.
Like, what does that mean?
I, I've never watched more than one minute of banana ball.
So I don't, like, I try.
But you've seen the clips online.
I've seen the clips.
And then when I see it on TV, I'm like, oh, banana ball.
People love this.
People, their families love it.
Like, maybe I should watch it.
it. And I'll watch 58 seconds. And I'm like, I don't know what's going on and I don't like it.
It doesn't make me smile. It doesn't make me laugh. I don't care about the stakes. I don't care about the teams. None of it matters to me. And so then I turn it off. And then maybe I'll come back to it for another 57 seconds. And I still don't get it. And then Dave is tweet live tweeting it. And I'm, I just, I don't get it. I don't understand. Is this where he's, he buses down on it? Let's just watch. Let's watch this. And I just want to get your instant reactions here.
I don't know if this is something you guys might be interested in the plate.
He's cleaning it.
Catch your backs up.
It's not clean it very efficiently.
Oh, ho.
Can you hit these moves, Micah?
I think I could.
Is this entertaining?
Landry in the group text asked the relevant question.
Is that Brian Dayball?
It does look like.
Looked like Brian Davey.
A bigger beard.
Dude, that's a battle of a bad boy right.
That guy's a unit. He is a unit. I will give him that. That he's 5-6, 240.
Yeah. The guy lives heavy, zero cardio.
Like his bench range of motion is like, yeah.
Like he puts a full banana in a smoothie? He's putting up three-time-tenths, but he's
about three inches. He doesn't need a car caddy. I can tell you that.
No, he doesn't. He's probably got some big mitts on him. I didn't see if he was big-boned or not,
but that's the kind of stuff you can expect, a banana ball. Does that, does that do much for
you? No. Expect the unexpected. And I try and put myself in the position of someone who is there
with their kids. Like, does 20 seconds of a large man dancing? Yes. Justify my entrance to this.
They do some crowd work stuff. Sometimes. I saw a guy had like the longest. So does Tony Hincliffe.
And I don't like that either. I saw a guy do like the longest walk up of all time when he's going
up to bat. And this was at Kyle Field. He went from the
very top of the of the stadium the top row and went all the way down to play and that sounds electric
while dancing of course wow there was a guy who danced was he wanted to do seriously uh-huh
it's not like an actual sport it's a banana it's entertainment i know that people always say oh it's like
the harlem globe trotters of of baseball i don't like the harlem globe trotters either there's real
basketball you could watch.
Wow.
You're no fun.
You're no fun.
I went to, you know what?
I watched, I went to Disney on ice with my daughter recently.
Fine.
She liked it.
I didn't.
I wouldn't watch it on TV.
Like, what are we doing?
Now I'm doing the Tucker Carlson bit.
What's going on?
What are we doing?
What's going on?
Mike it doesn't appreciate the arts.
One guy asked, that's not true, Randy, and you know this.
Don't make me bring back the music minute.
Go ahead.
One guy asked, uh, if Dylan, some guy,
Some guys in the comments on Instagram
because we did cut a clip of Dylan
talking about the bananas in a negative light.
He goes, oh, I can tell that this guy's
a 42-year-old gay man.
Yeah, definitely.
Not really sure how he could tell.
Absolutely a gay man.
And then he doubled down on it.
He commented later, he goes, yeah, this guy's gay.
Like straight people enjoy banana ball, I guess.
Is what I'm the TV way there.
I am interested to know the demographics
of the fans of banana ball.
it's mostly kids
okay
mostly kids
it's like uh
it's
there's a lot of dude perfect crossover
this this guy asks
how do you get get it
how do you get the plot
and yet still hate it
maybe because you don't have
an athletic bone in your body
what does it have to do with banana ball
that's actually a really
I mean have you ever done a backflip
while catching a pop five
that's a really stupid thing
but you haven't pussy
no I haven't
I never tried it
I can't even are you talking to a straw man
actually in that clip Dylan says that he
practice long enough he could be he could do it that's true that's true not a backflip god do the
comments this this thing randy said he was looking at he was on the analytics and he said this is
getting like a i think them being in tennessee and selling out the stadium like three nights it's like
getting it back in the geist oh it's guys so this this clip's popping off again so more people are
pointing out that you uh am a gay man a 42 year old gay man yeah yeah that's tough man's fine which i'm like
what's that guy trying to say so what if i'm like what's that guy trying to say so what
he is. He's, to my knowledge, you're not. But if you were, like, what does that have to do with you? It's gay to
dislike Banana Ball, I guess. I mean, I don't, I shouldn't say this, but like, I think
disliking Banana Ball makes you a little more straight than just like going to a stadium and
watching people dance in colorful outfits. Like, it's one step away from Broadway, which I do appreciate.
But I mean, it's, that's kind of gay. There's a serious philosophical debate. Don't clip that in the,
in the comments.
What's the difference between the bananas and the Globetrotters?
And this guy said there's actually one key difference.
The Globetrotters have a predetermined outcome.
The Globetrotters win no matter what while the bananas are playing in a competitive game
where both teams are trying to win.
And it's all part of a full-on banana ball league that any of the six teams can win.
I don't know if they're trying, like really trying to win.
I mean, you get somebody up there on stilts.
Speaking of stilts.
What do you mean?
And speaking of differences.
Here's one.
Will Chamberlain played for the Harlem Globetrotts.
Who's the greatest banana ball player?
Did think so?
Jesse Bradley Jr. played a few games.
There's actually a guy in the White Sox that played for the ban.
Did he ever get 40, 20 in a playoff game?
Somebody got called up recently from the bananas.
Wow.
Yeah.
Cool.
Some guy got a cup of coffee.
Wilt Chamberlain.
One of the greatest of all time.
Wilt is still.
They called him up, but on his way up to the bigs, he slipped.
On a banana?
Yeah.
I think that's the job.
Yeah, it was actually tragic.
That sounds like trash to me.
I don't like the fact that we've brought this catchphrase back.
I feel,
feel neutered by it.
It just,
it didn't feel natural yet.
I'm tethered to it.
I'm looking for excuse to use it.
And I don't love it.
This guy said,
nah,
man,
baseball ruined baseball by taking itself way too seriously.
That's,
that's my favorite day.
Oh,
that's a stupid comment.
It's baseball.
Come on, man.
Tristan Peters is,
is currently playing
MLB and his first major league hit was against Paul Skeens.
Yeah, how about that?
No shit?
Wow, I'll be damn.
The White Sox, I believe now one game over 500, Randall.
Now it's time to tune in.
Well, now that I know that it's a banana ball player, I might actually start watching
the White Sox again.
See, look at that.
It brought Randy to baseball.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
All right.
That's great, man.
A success story right in front of your eyes.
That's wonderful.
See that little cutie over there?
He is the target demo for the banana balls.
Like, it's wacky people like Randy.
It takes me a lot to get back into the,
white socks it takes you know divine intervention with the pope and then a banana ball player
there you go so there you go just pretty simple what do you think about the pope's a banana ball
sucks sorry dave what do you think about the pope's a i statement i haven't seen them i know he's
soft on crime but what do you say about that i don't think about um no just you bring up the pope
man don't get me started anyway yeah i definitely watch more banana ball it did a Texas tailgate
You got to support Texas, right?
They get the bananas in L recently.
They did.
Who won last night's game?
I believe, I turned it off.
I didn't stick with it.
I did go to bed.
But I believe the bananas took that one,
which they needed, man.
They needed a dub.
They needed it.
The guy on the unicycle,
he went over.
It was a tough scene.
I'm just kidding.
Are you sure there's even a guy on stilts?
I haven't seen it.
Oh, he's not seen it.
There is a guy on stilts?
Yes.
Okay.
Cool.
So I'm getting hit.
You got to pitch it like, you know, 20 feet above where you would typically pitch it.
Is that any different than us doing a podcast and a car?
I mean, we, you know?
That Micah was in on.
The Michael was in on.
Remember that?
The Tonale.
I do.
Oh, yeah.
That was good.
Tonale.
I'll tell you what I'm in on.
Shopify.

You guys got the big hitters in the, uh, we're not here to play around the world today.

so i just got very distracted by a comment in the chat okay shared it reads over in three
two randy banana ball just added the indianapolis clowns so you've got indiana team too
not know that there's expanding new teams are you from indiana i'm from nina
The clowns.
The clowns.
That's right up your out.
You might be confused because he's always, he puts off a Chicago vibe, but he's actually
in another state.
From northwest Indiana.
About 40 minutes away.
Is that where the bears are going to be playing?
Yes.
So I'll put my hometown, like my house will probably be like 20 minutes away from the state.
Is that for sure?
I'm pretty sure.
I don't know.
Apparently Illinois is scrambling again.
We'll see.
I think billionaires should build their own fucking state rates.
That's a good
That's a good one.
What's up with these spurs?
Are we going to do it tonight?
You know I'm riding with the spurs, right?
No, I didn't know the term.
I'm on the bandwagon.
Do you have a car flag?
I don't have a car flag.
They've been sold out, so I've been monitoring the situation.
Okay.
I had a Mavericks car flag back in the day.
There were two wimby jerseys for Parks' graduation.
Two of the students walked the stage wearing wimby jerseys that they caught the fever, man.
That's cool.
Yeah.
Well, maybe he'll catch the player on the basket because you're the most dominant player on the court vibe.
He needs to spend more time in the paint.
I'm going to co-sign that.
We can't go over from three either.
They're going to catch this dub in San Antonio.
Then we'll see about it.
Michael, what's been your experience?
I know you followed the association.
You've been a big NBA guy.
You always have been.
Thunder, where are they on your radar?
Do you like them more or less now?
What's going on?
I don't like them.
Dave, I don't like anything about them, really.
I don't like their fans.
I don't like the, I don't really like the uniforms.
I don't like the state of Oklahoma, as you guys well know.
And, no, I don't like the ethos that they play with.
I believe it to be unethical basketball.
And yeah, I despise them.
The flopping, it's not really the flopping.
It's the non-basketball play.
when you when you pump fake and then you dive into somebody instead of pump faking and then stepping
through to go for a layup it's just it's not basketball it's it's uh it's foul merchant stuff that's
that's that move has been around for a long time though i mean i think jordan used to do that yeah no no
he would he would pump fake and they would step through and make a layup he went jump into a guy and
take a foul this is this is a new phenomenon okay and i i don't like it i think it's uh you know i just i just don't
I don't like anything about them.
I don't like,
I mean,
She's fine.
He's a talented player.
Like the,
he's bringing back the mid-range game.
I find that exciting.
Two-time MVP?
Yeah,
but I don't like his dependence on free throws
and the way that they play.
Absolutely.
And it's not just him that's doing it.
McCain was,
was very guilty of it last game as well.
And I don't like that guy in his TikToks.
He's having a series,
his TikToks or something else.
Yeah, it's not just Shea.
He's the worst of the flopping, but it's spread throughout the entire organization.
It's ugly.
It's not fun to watch is my biggest complaint.
Basketball is fun to watch when it's quick moving and you got its physical play and you got fast breaks.
This is not entertaining.
It takes a lot of the joy out of the game.
I want to see you guys shoot 30 free throws a game.
That's not fun for me.
Yeah.
No, I would agree.
And yeah, it's just, and, you know,
don't want to make it about the officiating, but their style of play makes it about the
officiating because they're so dependent on that stuff. So, like, you can get mad at the officials,
but I would get mad at the people that are putting the game in the official's hands.
I'm glad you brought that up. Is it a Scott Foster night? Oh, God, I hope not. Well,
he's the extender, right? No, that's, that's true. It might bode well for, I just don't need to
see Tony Brothers ever again. This says James Gucci Williams is listed as an official for tonight.
No Scott Foster tonight. All right. Interesting. Well, we'll see. It's going to be a great game. I'm looking forward to game seven Saturday night if the Spurs can do it tonight. I'm cautiously optimistic. I think our man Foxy and Castle will play better than they did in game five. And I think Wemby will be a little more efficient and the Spurs should win the game.
Yeah
Did you see the
sponsor of the show Underdog Fantasy
They were giving away
You remember the game Operation
We've all played Operation
Oh yeah
Remember that game?
Well they they released a version
Randy if you could pull it up
It's an unethical hoops version of it
And it is a
Yeah they've recently got a cease and desist
From Shea's legal team
But it's what appears to be Shea
in a jersey that says unethical.
Do you want me to play the video?
You don't have to play the video,
but it's operation and every time you touch,
it's that they call a foul.
You got to see indeed, huh?
That's our old sponsor there, Haas.
The way that they play the game is,
if you were playing with Dylan on the blacktop,
you wouldn't, like, jump into people.
You're trying to score baskets.
You're not trying to get to the foul line.
You called them unethical earlier,
the way they played.
Well, yeah, I mean, this is something.
that Wemby said six months ago is that we're here to play ethical hoops.
If I were playing on the blacktop with Dylan, I would just let him try to dunk.
And then I'd be like, oh, dude, what happened?
Would you run up behind him and videotape him with their big shadow?
I'm a maniacal shadow.
Sneaky best part of that video is your shadow just, you're just full content mode.
That's all you care about.
He was doing his, he was journalism.
And I told him to cut and he did, but you probably should have kept him.
I should have.
If he was a real content guy, he would have ignored me and just kept filming.
Yeah.
If you're new here and you found us.
from the Daily Wire.
Dylan broke his leg about seven years ago.
It was longer than that,
touching rim, basketball rim.
And we got it on video, we posted it before.
And I had to touch Dylan's leg to make sure
there wasn't like a bone.
Yeah, he did.
And I'm shocked if there wasn't something sticking out.
That's how bad it hurt.
Yeah.
You did touch rim though.
I did.
Where I messed up was trying to grab and hang there.
And I didn't have enough of the rim to hang from it.
And so I slipped and I landed very awkwardly.
You know, I drove by there recently and that big old bottle of full of piss was still sitting there.
Yeah, I'm just right in the middle of court.
Who was the, uh, malt liquor bottle of piss?
Who was the backer that came in town and then recreated that video?
Uh, that's our guy who does the dunk contest.
Uh, his name escapes me.
Alex.
Yeah, he's a, he's like a, he's a dunker.
That was a plus content.
Yeah.
He, he, he, there it is.
Oh, no.
Oh, and then here comes Micah's shadow.
Oh, the shadow.
Just locked in.
Oof.
The pain.
Yeah.
It's a fun day, though.
Except for everybody but Dylan, I guess.
And then very soon after, we got canceled and let go.
Nice thing about that video.
I don't have to scroll too far on touching base Instagram to go find it.
To be clear, the show got canceled.
What's the date on this?
This would be, it says 394 weeks ago.
November 2nd, 2018.
We did a-we got, we got let go 15 days after this.
Yeah.
I had a brace on my leg.
Insult to injury.
Yeah.
The iconic photo of us at Black Sheep Lodge.
Mike is wearing a spurs jacket.
Great jacket.
But I don't know what had happened to you.
Maybe you've just been down in the dumps.
But I had a cut on my eye.
Dylan, of course, had a leg brace.
I'd like an old-fashioned.
There's Micah.
Action.
All right, Bd-D.
Yeah, DVD.
who uses powdered sugar
action happy holidays
happy holidays
action action
it was legendary
the early days of instagram
god dude good stuff
it's an electric video
all the people that found us from jezebel are like
what's going on
who is this jezebel
does that still exist i don't know i don't think it does i don't think so
they found us from deadspin
zombie dead skin deadspin
There is still a site, right?
Like, they do have writers.
They did for a while.
I felt bad for the writers because there people clearly just needed a job.
And then like, anytime they would put something out, people would be like,
scab.
Just turn on.
Yeah.
Fuck you.
You're not the, yeah, they know.
They act like Dave does for the new Tfm writers.
Relentless hate.
Does Tfm still have writers?
Remember mailman, Dave?
I don't know.
That was my guy.
I think they're still updating the site.
I'll mess.
I'm DMed with them a little bit.
Good for them.
Hold on.
I'm,
I'm just producing.
I'm doing my job.
Okay, Randy.
I didn't hear anybody criticize you.
No,
you will on voicemails tomorrow.
Why are you getting hot right?
You will on voicemails tomorrow.
Oh, okay.
I'm just doing my job.
Okay.
That's a little tease for Patreon tomorrow.
God, dude,
I feel like we're working with Micah again.
No.
No, I'm just kidding.
Hey, before we get to comments of the week.
Oh.
Yeah.
Phil Friday.
Phil Friday's still going strong.
Well, no, this is November.
7th, 2025.
Okay.
So I don't even know
if they are updating this site anymore.
Yeah, I'm not seeing anything for
2026. Oh no.
Keep it going.
You should bring it back, dude.
You're still the king. I don't think that's going
to happen. You're still the king of frat.
Look at you. Brad Humor had a nice run
but then it died
in this
type of content. I mean.
We still run stories. You know, that's
the Iowa hazing wall. That's right.
People look to you.
I don't think so.
In their darkest hour.
I'm a 42-year-old gay man.
I don't think they look to me about this.
Come on, man.
What about the Alabama fraternity president guy?
The consultant.
The consultant.
You guys talk about him?
Yeah, he's still killing it.
No, he was doing, remember he was doing,
he was doing below.
He was doing below with some undergrad.
I don't think we ever talked about that on the actual podcast.
There was a video making it around the Twitter.
I mean, this is three months ago, but.
Could never, never verified.
You can't expect the Alabama
Freckonsult not to do below, though.
If I'm consulting threats, I'm definitely doing that.
I don't know.
I don't know if he was doing it, but I am definitely.
It looked like maybe he was, but, you know, allegedly.
You know, the internet is.
Could have been Visencox.
We don't know.
I also thought Thomas Massey was in a threesome or a thruple with AOC and the other lady.
But it turns out that was AI.
I don't know if you saw that.
Really?
Yeah.
He famously lost his bid to either not.
He lost his seat.
Um, anyway, I had something out.
Oh, Micah.
I have one thing that I want to talk about.
That's it.
Yes.
You didn't tell us what this was.
Yeah.
Randy can pull this up.
I'm obsessed with these haircut transformations on Instagram.
This is my new algorithm.
And there's one guy in San Antonio.
He's a barber.
I'll let Randy pull it up and we'll shout him out.
You guys should go flood his comments and tell him they need to cut my hair.
I want to get faded up.
But all of his videos are very similar.
What are you doing?
No, I know this guy, Chelsea found this guy and was showing me.
He does some wild transformations.
Micah, is this one of the 3,741 people that you follow?
Micah, you're the most active double-tapper on Instagram.
I do double-tapped a lot.
You are the king.
If there's something that I see that I'm like, oh, that's kind of funny.
Oh, Micah liked it and follows.
We need to ask about Doc Spaghetti.
Is Guy Fieri a fraud?
He's the guy theory takedown guy.
Oh, yeah, I like that guy.
Clearly.
We know you do.
Yeah, he follows.
The Doesn't Swallow guy.
There's nothing in the chopsticks.
It's quite evident.
It's crazy, yeah.
All right, play this, Randy.
Let the boys hear this one.
Go to Reagan High School?
No, bro.
I got to Cornerstone Christian.
Dang, bro.
And how far was it drive for today?
Only like a calm in five minutes.
So what are we thinking about doing for the cut today, bro?
I don't know, bro.
I have a big forehead and crazy straight, flat hair.
I've seen your transformations and I'm just going to leave in your hands, bro.
Can you pause it?
A lot of bros get thrown around.
So just to paint the picture for those listening,
there is clearly a middle school or a high school kid here he has a terrible sort of weird
comb over thing happening it's a little kid haircut yeah this guy specializes if uh if correct me
if i'm wrong and like thinning hair bringing making it look full no he he specializes in texture
right is the word he always uses but i've seen some dudes with very thinning hair and he he
kind of texturizes it brings it forward and makes it look like oh well i didn't know i just want
i just want to do a video like this but so
So this kid is sitting there, he's just kind of a nerd.
I mean, this isn't the way he probably wears his hair.
He's got an awesome unibrow.
Yeah, he's got a unibrow.
His hair is kind of combed in a comb over and then go ahead, Randy.
So what I suggest what we do for you today, bro, is we can add a lot of texture on the top.
And then the front to cover your massive forehead, though, we can give you a nice, messy textured fringe, a blowout taper on the side, a blowout taper on the back.
And yeah, bro, how does that sound?
That sounds great.
Now the thing is, bro, do you trust me with this cut?
Yeah, bro, just give me right.
I got you, bro.
This haircut is going to shoot you 10 times better.
And your confidence is going to shoot to the roof, bro.
I can guarantee that you'll leave your look in your absolute best.
And with all that being said, bro, are you ready for this transformation?
Yes, bro, just give me right.
Bet.
Bet.
So here's the before.
I'd kill for that kid's hair.
And then look at the after.
He always puts earrings on these kids.
Yeah.
Yeah, he ices him out.
And they just look so fly.
I want...
Mr. Steelego girl right there.
Tell me that that wouldn't be...
It's hilarious.
Tell me I wouldn't be good in this video.
Like, you go to Cornerstone High School, bro?
No, I live in Dripping Springs, Texas.
I'm a 42-year-old man.
What do you want to do with your hair today?
I just want to look like I have hair.
Can you do that for me?
He'll set you up.
Just get me right.
I've seen your videos.
You're into transformations.
And then he always does the same taper on the side in the back.
And I'm going to add texture.
It's the same haircut every time.
You were getting that from Zeke, right?
What was the guy that?
Zeus, Zeus.
Yeah, shouts to Zeus, who's actually kind of my hair in dripping springs now.
The sequel to Trump to Champ right here, did that transformation.
But I need that transformation.
I need everybody.
What's this guy's at, Randy?
Jose underscore blends.
Yes, Jose Blends.
How big is he?
With the Z.
There's only 6,000 followers.
Jose.
Oh, it's just.
Blends with the Z underscore.
Scroll down.
I want to see if any of these are, yeah, I just don't know if I could pull any of these
off.
No, I mean, it's all high school and middle school kids, which would make me appear
in the video that much fun.
This guy seems a little old.
Not as old as me.
Dude, if I got back from Turkey, I'm going straight to this guy.
I think he pretty much has the same haircut he does forever.
Look at these haircuts, man.
These are wild.
But he just always puts a chain and earrings on these kids.
And they go from, they're brilliant transformation.
Are you going to do, uh, will you do an eyebrow knock?
Yeah, I would.
I would.
Is that what those are called?
They look like the scar.
Yeah, yeah.
Do you see a lot of these haircuts at the mall?
Yeah, these are mall people.
This is a mall haircut.
His last post said that he's raised prices.
So he's going viral.
It shouts to this guy.
And Jose, if you're listening, everybody sent this to Jose.
Get in the comments.
Dude, fade me up, fam.
It looks like this is where Chet went.
Okay, that's another thing I hate it.
What is up with Chet's hair?
Why does he do that?
What's up with the triangle in the back?
Dude, he sucks, man.
I hate that guy.
When you look like that guy, you got to try something different.
Okay, is this real?
I don't know.
Did we figure out?
Yes, this was his fit.
There's, okay.
Charles gave him some shit about this one.
Not as much as Dylan did, but I gave him some shit.
I went viral for it.
I mean, his fit isn't as bad as his haircut and you can't see the back of it.
That guy stinks, man.
Look at that guy.
I hated the commercials they ran last year.
Remember, they had the, God.
The AT&T commercials.
They were terrible.
Thankfully, they're not in them this year.
Anyway, I'm sorry.
It sounds like you never forgave the thunder for the Super Somme.
for the move.
Shouts to Jose.
Dot blends with a Z.
It's Jose.
Dot blends dot underscore.
Oh, dot underscore.
Sorry.
It's not what you want.
You can just look at, he's followed by me.
So you could go to the people I follow and then sort through 3,000 of them.
And yeah, you follow everybody.
Man.
I like supporting local businesses, you know.
But I will go to San Antonio to get faded for you.
If the Spurs win the championship, will you go down there and get it?
I mean, I'll go down there and get it.
I mean, I'll go down.
there next week. He doesn't need a championship to go.
Do you think he doesn't do a lot of the, like, I would get a Spurge logo on the back of my head.
Can we go, can we, can we can Randy or somebody go with you so we can get content out of it?
Well, I think Jose Blends would just be getting council too. Yeah, he got a team. Okay. Yeah, but we could get circling back.
Just bad in the chat comments, Micah, everything is your algorithm. That's a good point.
Castle widen it. Thanks for, thanks for letting me share.
that with you guys. Thank you. I think it's a good idea. Well, we want Joseblends. Everyone,
when you get my guy. Jose.J.d.blends dot underscore. That's tough. That last underscore.
Oh, man. Let's do this weekend of fun. Bro, let's go out this weekend. There's a crazy event
happening. I like to turn off. Bro, there's a crazy event happening. We had the party and it was lit.
I got yelled out by a prostitute. Let's just go have fun and let go a little.

They're goaded, man. Our first sponsor.
The gummy formulation has not changed, if you're wondering.
They're still really good.
I'm a watermelon guy.
But the drops, I've been putting in my peppermint tea at night.
Just kind of relaxing me.
I'm a peppermint tea guy.
I'm 41.
Yeah.
Are you still doing raw garlic?
Not as much as I used to, but I do dabble in garlic.
Yes.
Thank you.
I'm glad you remember that.
I don't put it in my smoothie like I used to.
That was weird time.
That was reckless.
That's a very silly move.
Micah, what you got?
Oh, man.
I well we're having a birthday party for my three-year-old even though we had a birthday party for
last Saturday but we're running back got some water toys so I got a slip and slide ordered

breakfast taco bar so will there be what kind of condiments would there be salsa yes I need to make

Casso.
No queso for breakfast tacos.
What's something else?
Like avocado based.
Wachamole.
Yes, there will be

Other than that,
I'm actually pretty,
pretty light this weekend.
Watching the Spurs Saturday night,
hopefully in game set.
Let's go.
You guys want to go to Coco's?
Maybe.
I'll go.
If you go somewhere to watch the game,
I'll go.
I feel like that place isn't long.
for this city but i don't know i hope it i hope it gets some more uh traction during football
season because it's a great place to watch sports but randy and i ate snitzel there one time i had the
chicken snitzel sandwich there it was enough for like four meals it's a lot of food it's a lot
that i could tell when i ordered it because remember the waiters kind of gave me like a okay
i was like why why what's that about she's like it's just a lot and what she was right
owned by ticket city by the way ticket master i mean cocos is yeah
So what do you say?
Yeah, what does that mean?
They're not highly regarded as a company.
They have their hands on the crazy inflation of the secondary market of sporting events and concerts.
Are we sure about this?
I mean, I'm not arguing with that point.
If Randy, we do his job.
Ownership of Coco's?
Yeah.
Look at all.
Yeah, yeah.
Sorry.
Future voicemail listener.
I'll produce.
I'll just do my job and look things up.
Dude, woke the only is a fucking mood, whole mood over there.
Yeah, he was talking about anti-war propaganda the other day, too.
Yes.
Yes, Coco's Bavarian is owned and operated by Live Nation Entertainment,
which is the parent company of ticket masks.
Well, what are you going to do, huh?
It's a good place to watch sports.
It is.
And I enjoy a ping pong table too.
How about this?
Let's go, but let's smuggle in a flask and drink our own alcohol and not give them any monies.
I like it.
It's good.
Randy.
My weekend?
I got a, I think it's going to be nice weather, so try to hit the pool a little bit.
There's been some talks of maybe going paddleboarding.
Get out on there on the lake.
Friday's going to be nice.
Saturday might be cloudy.
I know for a fact, get some ice cream sandwiches, cookie ice cream sandwiches.
Don't tell Dylan.
Hey, whatever you do, do not tell Dylan.
I'm going to go get some ice cream cookie sandwiches.
Okay, I won't tell them.
Okay, please.
Thank you.
Where do you get your ice cream cookie sandwiches?
I think it's called like the baked bear.
Oh, the baked bear.
You're a baked bear guy.
Right, right by the old power plant.
We got the old power plant right here too.
Look at this guy.
I know that place.
Yeah.
The baked bear.
What's the calorie number on a baked bear?
Two cookies.
Nothing, a little paddle board won't burn.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
This will be my first time going.
It's a lat play.
I'm just wondering.
It is.
It's quite the weekend.
Did you know Randy's girlfriend moved in with him?
I heard that.
I congratulate him.
Yeah.
He has a lot of fun and wonderful times ahead of him.
Here all about Randy's lunch from yesterday on tomorrow's listener voicemail.
Is that not yesterday's live episode?
No, that was the VMs.
Oh, nice.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, because that would have been after lunch.
But I'm not seeing the calorie counts here, Micah, unfortunately.
It's probably for the best.
I put them on the website.
Yeah, it's like, I'll say a few Hill Mary's, right?
Yeah, she's the one that wants to go.
So I'm very interested in going.
And also just kind of settling into the place.
Got some new curtains and curtain rods.
Just hanging shelves and making the place a little bit more of ours.
She hates that I don't have curtains over my windows.
You've been there for a long time.
You should probably have curtains.
I don't know.
The blinds work fine enough.
But it'll make it look a little bit nicer.
You could go to Arby's and get some buttons.
A woman's touch.
David.
What?
Dylan.
Oh, thanks for asking.
Got a birthday dinner tomorrow for Chee-Ce.
I'm going to Van Horns.
I've never been.
Oh, wonderful.
I haven't been.
I've tried to go twice.
Excited to see what it's all about.
So you know he's actually there sometimes.
Keith.
Keith Van Horn.
Oh.
Former Maverick great.
No, I did not know.
JVH.
Yeah, he's back there.
Sometimes he'll mix up some cocktails and shake hands.
I think Dave's bullshitting.
Yeah, I think he is.
That's really all I have.
Like, like Randy said, weather should be good.
I might get some pool action in.

Okay.

All right.
You're not going to believe this.
No, this has got something Saturday night, so I might be, if I go, if there's a call for
a game seven, I will get a sitter and I will go watch game seven with Mike.
That is, that is facts.
Pearson, Bradkey and I are planning to do it.
So I'm sure.
Oh, you should say, if you've said enough.
Yeah.
Let's go.
Set enough.
Friday night.
We're getting some of the kids from the T-ball team.
We're getting them together.
We're going to go out to the old diamond.
We're going to go out there and do a little dad.
Dad kids just hit the ball, do a little impromptu practice in the offseason and just play around, man.
Really looking forward to it.
I miss it.
We're only two weeks from two weeks after our final game and everybody's just fiending, champing at the bit to get back out there.
So because they're watching so much banana ball?
It's the banana effect, yeah.
Yeah.
This place is expensive.
What's it going to cost you?
I know.
The steak started 58.
Yeah, beef flation.
For eight ounces of center cut, filet mignon.
Straight of Hormel.
Seeing that joke.
Sunday night, going to going up Round Rockway.
Some of the other boys, we're all bringing the kids to, from the T-ball team.
We're going to a baseball game.
Ah.
The Express.
The Round Rock Express.
Are you going to do the next one?
999-9 challenge?
Is that the late great Herman Keynes plan to get elected president?
Or is that something else?
Is that a reference?
It's just people at home are raising the roof.
Like, yeah, that's sick.
That was really good.
Good stuff.
That was a joke, I think, only for Micah?
Godfather's pizza.
That was really good, Dave.
No, I don't know if I'm in a, I don't know.
The idea of like watching these kids who are no doubt just going to be just raising
hell and just pounding dogs and beers.
Wait, what's the third nine?
Innings.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Over under, I'm putting it four innings on us being there.
We'll see how long these kids are going to go four four at least.
Four four four is in play.
Call the fours.
A lot of peace, a lot of pissing.
Going to get some pisses off.
You're going to eat some dogs.
Give me a great time.
And that's that.
Okay.
Can I promote hard money mica?
Yeah.
Yeah, you can.
For those of you who don't know, they're calling me hard money mica
these days. Anybody who's listening who's interested in flipping homes, fix and flip, fix and rent,
ground up construction, we got it. We got your hard money at my company Backflip, which is also
a well-named company, but also has a lot to do with fix and flip. If you're interested in any way,
reach out to me. I can get you a same-day quote, line by line. Let's get it. Up to 90% leverage,
100% of the rehab costs.
Wow.
Say no more.
Can I do running back before we go ahead?
Can I do my segment?
Randy.
My reoccurring weekly segment?
I got to do it two weeks in a row for it to be reoccurring weekly.
Give to pee.
Don't you?
Reoccurring.
No, I don't have to pee.
I do.
Go ahead, Randy.
These are the best comments of the week, mainly coming from Spotify and YouTube.
I'll keep it quick.
It seems like everyone wants to get out of here.
Corey Greer, who was on my side about the Honorable Palmer drink.
He comments.
He follows up.
He says, I have to have.
issue a statement, the time of my Arnold Palmer comment, I'd not consider the fact that he makes
more money than me. So he's without, you know, criticism. For context, uh, Randy said more people
know Arnold Palmer from the drink than his golfing career. I think that's true. Oh,
suck it, Dave. Shut up. But I think more true. How did you do your job, dude? I think more people
know him for having a huge hog. No. I told you the Cox of you. That his, I did not know that.
Our president went on record saying that.
You know what?
Great poll.
I forgot about that.
The best comment of the week last week was that he has a diesel pork sword.
The president mentioned the late great Arnold Palmer's unit.
Penn 15.
His peace.
Nothing surprises me anymore.
His driver.
Here's one.
Randy's comment of the week is just who can pander to humor of a fifth grade.
A fifth grader.
You would think that that's coming from someone that really thinks themselves to be a mature person.
That comes from a little nutzac.
That's good.
That's that boy.
That boy, a little nut sack.
Okay.
Texas Husker comments, wow, didn't know I share a birthday with Chechay.
Where's Dave taking her?
Where'd you take her?
Huh?
Where'd you take Chechay for a birthday?
We went to ECHO.
Yeah.
I thought you might go to ECHO.
I had the Mole.
By the way, who typed out ECHO on the Instagram video?
That was tough.
That was tough.
I think that was Adam.
Echo?
Yeah.
ECCO.
Echo is spelled like the streetware brand.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Cade comments, if my boy is in an AI relationship, he is simply no longer my boy.
Oh, man.
Dude, dudes are lonely.
And here's a fun one here.
I have two YouTube short ones here just because these are ones that people that don't know us
and I thought would be fun to highlight some of these.
I'll do the quick one first.
Childhood Moments video.
David on YouTube Shores comments.
That was a country song.
Checked yes or no.
This motherfucker thought we wouldn't.
notice. I was hoping no one picked up on that. I know. There's obvious quote. The entire lyric that I read.
All right. Then this one should make you think here, David. This one I want to get serious for a moment.
Are you ready? You ready to get serious? Okay. This comes from no profile icon to no, no image.
