All right, we're back. Circling Back Podcast presented by Rowback, where you can get 20% off your first order using code BACKER20. My name's Will DeFries to my left. David, that boy rough. Allow me to be the first to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving week. Today marks the first day of the work week that contains Thanksgiving and here we are

working, putting in our time, punching the clock. And, yeah, we'll be here tomorrow. And guess what? We'll be here the next day. Oh, I think you're jumping the gun here, bub. Is it not Thanksgiving week? It is. We record Wednesday.

You know, which is the, you know, a day before Thanksgiving. Right. I'm wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving week. Well, that's jumping the gun. Right, I'm wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving week. Well, that's jumping the gun. Which is different than wishing them a happy Thanksgiving. It's self-gratification right there. You know about self-gratification. You know, a little bit.

It's like, oh, your birthday is, you know, August 28th. Happy birthday on August 1st. It's like, oh, happy birthday month. A lot of people celebrate their entire month of birthdays. You're a birthday month guy. Yeah, didn't you make us do like two weekends in a row of stuff for your birthday recently?

I believe I did not. No. You tried. We had other plans. Did we even do anything for my birthday? I didn't. When is your birthday?

Wow. Okay, that's really rude. But again, on behalf of this podcast, I just want to wish everyone out there a happy Thanksgiving week. To those of you not working, enjoy your time off.

To those of you who are, keep grinding. What's up with schools in Texas? What do you mean? They just get the whole week off. What's the deal? Yeah, the homies in California right now are just chilling. Have they relaxed the rules around time off from school? We absolutely went to school Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

I am positive. I want to say I did too. We always had the Wednesday off, I think. We never had it off. Maybe Wednesday off, but I think Monday, Tuesday was fair game. Yeah, we were going to school. Maybe the homie's just playing hooky. I don't know. If New Year's Day was on a Sunday, we were going to school on January 2nd. That was

just what they did. Damn. We got the short end. I don't play out there. Nah. Nah. Was it because you guys missed because of snow days? I guess. But, like, I mean, I feel like Texas elementary schools and shit are getting a ton of time off, and we were just out there grinding.

Would you stop? Dude, this is that lunch pail mentality up there in Michigan. Yeah, dude. I mean, we had to walk. It's a blue-collar state. We would walk to school uphill both ways in 10 feet of snow. Is that true? Facts. Big factscollar state. We would walk to school uphill both ways in 10 feet of snow. Is that true? Facts.

Big facts. Wow. Did you ever walk to school? I'd bring my thermos. My mom wouldn't let me walk home. Really? Yeah. Well, she did eventually, but by that time, it wasn't cool anymore.

No, I was an idiot. I was like, I'm 17. I was an idiot and complained about walking home from school, even though that gave me free reign to really go do anything I wanted. But I was like, no, I want you to go pick me up three blocks down. Well, I get why she did not want me walking home. Because the walk-home crew, I mean, there was dudes. It's a rough crew. Dude, don't fuck with the walk-home crew.

Cigarettes getting smoked. Probably nickel bags getting slanged. Damn, was it sticky?ung no probably wasn't even weed but yeah the walk home crew from uh intermediate school and definitely junior high just keep your head down walk walk straight dude can we wait can we make walk home crew merch it's fucking bad boys bad boy shit shut up oh man Oh, man. Never mind. I'm not going to shout out a specific person who sold weed, but I wanted to shout him out. Yeah.

You might not want to do that. Or her. Could have been a her. Ladies is... Drug dealers, too. You see the dude for the Chiefs who pulled out the invisible Tommy gun and was just letting it rip? Yeah. A little egregious.

Have we not memed that yet with someone's voice in the background? Yeah, see? Man, there was a guy at this wedding I went to over the weekend. He had on a double-breasted pinstripe suit with like a slick bag haircut. And I was just like, okay. How did you not do content with him?

What was he doing? I don't know. And he was like a young, good-looking guy, too. He was getting an absolute fit off. Double-breasted pinstripes. Gangster style. I thought he had a Tommy gun in there, ready to sing. If I'm ever wearing a double-breasted suit, something has gone wrong.

Yeah. It's like a suit you buy as a joke, but he was very much not joking. He was like a Halloween costume. Was it the one that Dave wore for Spooky Season? I still have that. You should wear it to the next black tie wedding you get invited to. Well, you guys couldn't really tell, but it's absolutely large.

Like, large, large. We could tell, Dave. Were you even here for that one? You missed two-fifths of spooky season. People forget that. Sorry. I missed zero spooky season. Didn't you miss one? Nah. Who filled in for Dylan? Oh, we had Ross. Yeah, Ross. He didn't dress season. Didn't you miss one? No.

Who filled in for Dylan? Oh, we had Ross. Yeah, Ross. He didn't dress up. No, he wore his Astros jersey. He told me he was going to dress up. He said, I'm wearing something sexy. He just wore his Astros jersey.

He dressed up as a cheater. Oh, got him! Damn. Dude, he's going to put you on bang in the can. Yeah, I'm sorry. I don't want to dance on their grave. They lost that World Series. They did. Hey, man. Someone had to come out the can. Yeah, I'm sorry. I don't want to dance on their grave. They lost that World Series. They did.

Hey, man, someone had to come out a loser. Yeah. It's tough out there. Very cool. I, too, am happy to be here, by the way. Oh, Dylan Chivary is here. Yes, thank you. I have a – oh, it's almost empty. My Super Fantastic is almost out of here.

No cream, obviously. I'm just ready to rip, man. What are you wearing right now? Oh, thank you. This thing, this is a quarter zip from Roback. It is co-branded with Washed, as in Washed Media right there. That's our company. That's embroidered on the sleeve.

It's very nice. Wow. It's also extremely comfortable. Yeah. Dylan came over to get some tools from my place that I'd stolen from him. Big tool guy. Yeah, I like tools. I like that he let you borrow tools and he had to go back.

He got to go to your place to get the tools. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And so, yeah, he came in and sure enough, I was sitting there just rocking my hoodie with the washed on it. I was just repping the company from home. I had to dap up you and the Fritz man.

It was tight. I will say, if you want to go to roback.com slash washed and get some of your own, I would go do so now. I'm looking right now. The hoodie in medium only has two left. By the time this episode goes live, there might be zero left of this thing. That's a hot item. You've got to be careful.

Again, roback.com slash washed. Does our promo code work for this if they're first-time users? I don't know. It's hard to say. I think the first time we did this, I know they turned it off for the washed. Actually, they were circling back. Merch? I don't know if they did it this time.

I might have given some bad intel to a listener. Shout out to Luca. I apologize. That's okay. Our dear friend, Klein, tried to do the same thing, I believe. I don't know if it worked for him or not. We got no feedback. People hit me up asking medium or large.

They're like, I'm about your size. And what I'm going to tell you right now does not help. I am comfortable wearing both the medium and the large. Me too. Which, it's just your preference. I genuinely think I can pull both off. It's a pretty traditional fit. In the hoodie, I should

explain. I'm talking about the hoodie only. The QZ, I think I'm a medium boy in the QZ. I can do both. Dude, you're so versatile. I'm stuck right between medium and large in pretty much everything right now. It's not great. A marge.

More programming notes. The geography video is on YouTube. Released last week. It's not great. A marge. More programming notes. The geography video is on YouTube. Released last week. It's heat. Go check it out. Patreon, we will be doing circling batch on Wednesday. We'll be dropping voicemails probably at a weird time this week. Probably early, if I had to guess. And then

go check out the Roback collab. Roback.com slash watch. The do even burn candle. still available. There aren't too many of those left. VeloBox.com slash circling dash back. And go rate and review. You guys want to hear a couple reviews from this past week? I certainly do, as long as they're overwhelmingly positive about me and me only.

Well, here's the first one. It's from Awesome5685252458-726-773357. Do you know who that person is? I love that dude. That's a good username. No, that dude's been a long-time listener. With that username, you can log in exactly one time, and then you're never going to remember what that handle is. Yeah, I guess awesome 568-525-783-2458-726-773356 must have been taken,

so he went with the other one. Okay. He said, I just got a Tinky off, and it was amazing. Five stars. If Dylan ever stops singing, I'm canceling my Patreon subscription. Is that really what it says? It is, yeah, unfortunately. See, Dave?

I got bad news, Dylan. Dave, for every one listener we lose because of my singing, we add two. So you're welcome. Can we check in with Dilly Dog? What does Dilly Dog have to say oh dilly dog this is from maddie ice says bye bye to my subscription only because dylan sings as soon as dylan starts my dog can't stop barking my baby starts crying besides that good pod you shouldn't listen in front of your baby yeah you should joe rocco 27 said, majority share Dylan. Show where one of the hosts gets endlessly ridiculed for his lifestyle choices

by two biologically smaller hosts for all of our entertainment. Five stars. That's facts. That's facts. Someone said, Jack from school said, it's so funny when you guys have to go to the bathroom during an episode. You have one job, which is to talk to your buddies about Twitter or sports for 60-ish

minutes, and sometimes you can't make that happen. Ha, ha, ha. Yeah, I know. Is he shaming? I would love to know how old this guy is. If he's in his 20s and he's pee-shaming people. I'm going to go to the bathroom regardless, even if I don't have to on this episode. Damn.

I kind of like when someone has to go to the bathroom. It kind of gives us a little, it kind of like changes the dynamic real quick and gives us a little like offshoot. Isn't that kind of real life too? Like if we're hanging out talking and I have to pee, I'm not going to hold it just to continue the conversation. I'm going to pee real quick. The creamer list is super fantastic. It just goes right through me.

I'm sorry. I drink a lot of it. Dude, does coffee make you have to pee faster than any other liquid? Yes. It does. And when you're like me and you try to hydrate properly in the morning and then you try to just pound that coffee before you get out of the door, then it's a problem. It's a tough combo.

I made the mistake before going to the F1 race that I decided I was just going to get as hydrated as possible before I went out there because I thought it was going to be super hot, and then I just ended up having to pee the entire time I was out there. I was like, what an idiotic move. Dehydrate yourself, dumbass. Good teammate, though. Very hydrated. Yeah.

That's all for reviews. The Tom Herman reference for those. Yeah, I mean. He has a PP chart. Would you take him back right now? Yeah. What was his worst season? Three losses?

I said on Too Much Dip, I really miss Mack Brown at this point. No, they barely made a bowl one year, right? Those eight and four seasons that got Mack Brown out the door, I'd kill for those. It's really sad. He's got to go. He's lost the room. That's what they say.

No, that's cool, man. You don't care. Shut up. No, it is cool. Big game for your Michigan Wolverines coming up. Yeah. Normally the Ohio State game is what you circle on the calendar. How's the Bama Rolling Tide doing?

They still look pretty good, man. That was a good pick. Squeaked by Arkansas. Good pick for you. I think it's time to recap this weekend in fun. Presented by Headspace. Are your thoughts running in endless circles in your mind? They be running.

With the stresses of the last year, it's more important than ever to practice living healthier and happier lives. So what if a few minutes was all it took to change your relationship with stress and anxiety, transforming your life for the better? That's the power of meditation with Headspace. Headspace, I'll admit, and I've talked openly about this before, but I was a user of Headspace before they were even a sponsor. Damn. I love them so much. Yeah, I was a beginner. Look at you.

He was GF on them. I was a beginner for the whole meditation thing. Wanted to dip a toe in it. And it was a perfect beginner's walkthrough on how to do it. And it was extremely effective. Well, yeah, our thoughts can be confusing enough, Dylan. And meditation doesn't have to be. Headspace is your convenient dose of meditation,

mindfulness, and sleep exercises to help relieve stress and anxiety and help you get a good night's sleep all in one app, making it easy to catch your breath and make time for your mental health. And it's one of the most science-backed meditation apps in the world, proving that meditation does, in fact, work. A study proves that in just two weeks, Headspace can reduce your stress by 14%. I'd take that.

Yeah, you would. In a heartbeat. We personally love their SOS mini meditations for a quick breather. They relieve our stress. They bring us a moment of peace among the daily chaos. I even asked a professional meditation instructor, I guess you would call them. I asked them one time, I was like, do you need to do like the 10 or 15 minute ones? And she was like, no, Will.

Just a couple minutes is enough to reset. Just think about that. Just a couple minutes is enough to reset. Just think about that.

Dylan, what did you do this weekend? Thank you for asking, Will. I had a very, very busy weekend. Wedding stuff. I went to a wedding on Saturday. You got married this weekend? I did not get married. Some friends of Bay, well, I guess they're my friends too,

got married over the weekend. Friday, we had like a, it wasn't necessarily a rehearsal dinner because it was pretty informal, just like a party at a dance hall, really, attached to Schultz's Beer Garden. I'm sure you've heard of it. Yeah, I've been there once or twice. Okay. Before Texas games. Right, Garden. I'm sure you've heard of it. Yeah, I've been there once or twice. Okay. Before Texas games. Right, okay.

I drink before football. So that was fun. Had a little country-western dancing theme. How'd the tie go over? The tie? Yeah. Oh, that was the next day at the actual wedding. But fine.

What do you mean? Fine. Okay, I'm just saying. You had some tie issues before the wedding. You didn't have one. I was concerned for you. I didn't have any tie. Oh, I had to go. I had some tie issues before the wedding. You didn't have one. I was concerned for you. I didn't have any tie. Oh, I had to go.

I got the tie on Friday. Okay. It wasn't a big deal. Okay, he's just checking. Yeah. Did you tie one on at the wedding? I wore a traditional just necktie with my tux, which I have a tux now. I don't know if you knew that, Dave.

I'm a tux owner. Yeah, I saw. I noticed. Was your double-breasted pinstripe suit at the cleaners? Glaring lack of black tie attire at this black tie wedding I'm not exactly sure it was black

tie or me and like three other guys really yeah was it black tie optional according to Brittany and like Brittany's little you know group of friends it was like black tie so like me and a few other guys from that group wore tuxes, but I got to the wedding

and we were the only ones. I think the long neck tie as opposed to the bow tie probably evened you out a little bit. It took the eyes off of you. If you would have shown up wearing just a traditional everything, you might have gotten some looks.

I looked at the invitation and it said attire was formal. And I said, Brittany, this does not say black tie. She said, well, that's just another term for formal. I was like, oh, I don't know about that. I was like, oh, okay. If it's black tie, I've seen black tie optional, which if it's black tie optional, I'm obviously wearing a tux.

You give me that option, I'm going to kick that door open. Right. So I went with the tux. I'm not of a tux. You give me that option, I'm going to kick that door open. Right. So I went with a tux. I'm not of that thinking quite yet. I check with, like, everyone I know going to the wedding if it's black tie optional before just to get a feel for it. Yeah. And if the majority, if there's an overwhelming majority not doing it, then I will not do a tux. But most of the time, I think the rule is just go above and beyond if you can.

Yeah, I think the general rule is when in doubt, overdress a little bit. So I would probably opt, I don't know. Yeah, I'd probably feel out my friends too, honestly. They say dress for the job you want. And I always wear tux because the job I want is international spy. That's good. Can I tell you about the schedule, the itinerary for Saturday and all the bars and stuff we went to, it was kind of crazy.

You ready? Blow my mind. Okay, so we showed up at the ceremony. It was at 4 o'clock. The reception was on a different site, so we made a pit stop at Driftwood Bar. Okay. Had two drinks there. Then we went to the wedding reception, which was an open bar.

We were there for several hours, dancing, drinking, you know, what you do at a reception. Doing what you do at wedding receptions. From there, we left. We went back to Driftwood and got more drinks at Driftwood. And then we went to Dirty Bills and left there at, I think, midnight-ish. You're addicted to Dirty Bills at this point. I'm not. I'm not.

It was a marathon. You're going to have to face it. this point. I'm not. I'm not. It was a marathon. You're going to have to face it. It was very fun, but it was a marathon of drinking, and I was feeling it the next morning. Like for backers who used to come to Austin, they had a good chance of squatting up with us at Matt's El Rancho. At this point, you just need to go to Dirty Bills at midnight on a Friday or Saturday, and Dylan will be there just dapping you up.

It was our friend's birthday the weekend before, and this one, the Brighton group wanted to go to Dirty Bill's, and so we did. And Sunday, I did quite literally nothing. I laid on my couch and dozed off at one point, didn't move from my house the entire day. It was pretty great.

Oh, wow. Must be nice, man. Yeah. Must be nice. What about you guys? So excited to hear what you did. What'd that boy get into? Were you in your bag this weekend? Do you want the complete itinerary like Dylan just provided? Because I can do that. Because let me tell you, the schedule was quite

lofty. For you? Yeah. It's pretty crazy. Friday, we watched Dune and we had a glass of wine how'd that go really good i thought it was i thought it was really really good and i did fall asleep for about four minutes but um other than that four minutes it was it was an excellent piece of film i thought i saw a lot of people criticizing on the timeline let me be clear i had no idea what it was about i knew there were sandworms i knew we had some desert what it was about i knew there were sandworms i knew we had some desert scenery that's all i knew i didn't know the plot i didn't know the characters i did learn that uh what's the dude's name the guatemalan guy isaac oscar or is it oscar isaac isaac oscar is apparently um number one oscar isa on many ladies' lists. He's apparently like the hot guy going hot now.

Oh, he is hot. His beard game is unparalleled. He's got a perfect salt and pepper. I would kill for that much salt and pepper in my beard right now. Yeah. Fuck. What's his name? Isaac Oscar?

I'm not. Oscar Isaac. I'm not that far from just going to the hair place and just asking her to put some salt in my beard. You don't have salt at home? Mm-mm. Get some kosher? Got some Maldon.

Maldon. You recognize this guy? He's also in Star Wars. Yeah, he's hot. What was his name in Star Wars, Dylan? Oh, that's a good one. He just looks, he's the most regular looking guy of anybody in the thing. Steve.

Steve. Steve Space, man. Yeah, this dude's a zaddy. Yeah, he's hot. Dune, highly recommend. I'm pretty ground floor on this. Check it out if you have. I've never been that into films that were set in distant future amidst a feudal interstellar society.

But honestly, I think I might flex based on some of the reviews I've heard of Dune. Dude, pretty good. Pretty good. And the guy, what's the, Charlemagne or whatever? Charlemagne the God? Yeah, Timothy Charlemagne the God. He's quite an actor himself. Saturdays when things got a little loco.

So my son, who is almost 10 months, he's now leveled up, and we are on crawl watch. He's crawling. Actually, crawl warning has been issued for all of central Texas. He's just crawling around. And if you have kids, you realize this kind of changes things, the dynamic. Because we've gotten comfortable just sitting him down in front of his toys, letting him grab whatever he wants, flip the boxes, the wicker baskets over. But in the last week, he's gotten really comfortable pulling himself up and just standing, obviously holding himself.

Dave, crawl watch or crawl phase is going to be very brief. He's going to be walking soon? He's going to be a walking SOV soon. Well's he's already on the couch pulling himself up onto the pillows and kind of walking along uh-huh and uh two months that's insane so 2022 oh he'll be walking early 2022 fuck yeah so i'm now i'm already a paranoid person and like so now i'm i'm thinking about baby proofing oh that's not a pain it wouldn't one so bad okay um yeah so i'm just now i'm like okay we gotta nerf this we gotta get rid of this can you pull down the tv i don't know yeah you have to put all your weaponry away yeah my sword collection is now in the garage fuck yeah it's

tough i'm leaving the nunchucks he does not i don't you know what if he figures out the nunchucks Yeah, my sword collection is now in the garage. Fuck. Yeah. It's tough. I'm leaving the nunchucks. He does not. You know what? If he figures out the nunchucks, that's props to him. But yeah, we spent a long time just watching him crawl on Saturday. Then we did a little Bear Dudley birthday gathering. Poolburger.

Got a gram off. At DCRuff on Instagram if you're new here. Add me on the group. twitter david ruff on linkedin well you were there i was there you came by before your uh your rock and roll show dude i have i have a slight issue so i went there and as people know pool burger is a burger place slash tiki restaurant they do tiki drinks the place is lit but i went there i got a mai tai and when i when she asked if i wanted a floater i was like a burger place slash tiki restaurant. They do tiki drinks. That place is lit. But I wait there. I got a Mai Tai. And when she asked if I wanted a floater, I was like, yeah.

And when I got my receipt, I was charged for it. What? What are they doing? What? I was like, no, please item that out. I'm surprised you even went up there, man. Because that place is kind of a ripoff of Wilmont's. I forget about when it's like, oh, let's go do something. I don't ever think about to go there.

But last time I went there, which was, I guess, a month or two ago, I had so much fun. That place is great. I always enjoy my time at Pool Burger. Yeah. It's where we did, if you remember, one of our Save by the Brunches. We sure did. Probably our most lit one. Easily our most lit one. Easily. That was the

best party we threw. It was a lituation. We had a little private party. That was a lot of fun. I was so pleased with myself. It was the only time I went to a Grand X meeting and thought, alright, I crushed that. We were talking about ideas for it and I was like, I think we should do Saved by the Brunch and just make it like a whole brunch scene. And everyone was like, that's a really good idea. Let's do that. And then I was like,

oh, meeting's over. Crushed it. Yeah. And we actually did. We was like, oh, meeting's over. Crushed it. Yeah. And we actually did. We followed through on it. Yeah. Yeah, we did it. Success.

That was a good time. Somebody in the parking lot behind was smoking pot, some reefer. Dude, that was some sticky icky. Was it sticky? And baby's first contact high. Dude, that shit was potent. I was like, oh. I, like, looked.

I didn't know. Whoever was sitting next to me was like, do I move? Or, like, I mean, I don't want. What do I do here? He was fine. It was, like, five seconds worth of marijuana smokage. It was a single crumb of marijuana smoke. Seriously.

He didn't, like, put on a gas mask or anything. Then we had, oh, everybody, you didn't know this. Everybody who did not go to the Rolling Stones show came back to our house Saturday night. Oh, really? You had a little house party? Impromptu house party, which with a baby, I was worried. He slept. He did not get woken up.

I don't know how. The night ended with me by myself on the couch watching Terrence Crawford, Sean Porter. A little pay-per-view, a little top-ranked boxing. So good night. Thank you for everybody who came out. It was mainly me, Barrett Dudley, and a bunch of ladies, even though it was Saturday.

Oh. You should have made them just go in the backyard. Barrett was kind enough to invite me to his birthday celebration, and I returned the favor by inviting him to my bachelor party in March in Las Vegas. Yeah, we know when it is. We just got another email about that. Did we? I know. I'm excited to read it.

Klein is making this whole process fun for me. He's excited. He told me he doesn't want to go, actually. I got to tell you, this is one of the best best man jobs I've seen. That sounds weird. He's crushing it. One of the most successful best man

emails I've ever seen. He's all over it. Does this mean $600 a person per night? Or is that for the whole trip? That's for the whole trip. Oh, let's just... Okay. We won't get into that. But that's it. I trip oh let's just yeah okay okay we won't we won't get into that but that's it i didn't really do anything stoked thank you klein thank you for your service

klein go ahead and talk about your you had the best oh wow thank you for asking me about we know your weekend was cool man yeah friday night i uh got a pizza and I fell asleep on the couch at 8.30 p.m. It was absolutely lit. On Saturday morning I had the pleasure of waking up and watching my favorite soccer team just get absolutely fucking smoked to the point where they had to relieve their manager of the duties. And, yeah, my timeline is just hell right now. I've had to mute and unfollow some people. I apologize if you caught the unfollow, but if you were in my mentions being a meanie, bye-bye.

Soccer fans? Yeah. Yeah, sorry. I was angry, and I had to just do some unfollowing. I'm not happy about it. That scares me away from becoming a footy fan and adopting a club. It's not good when opposing teams are singing in support of your manager, that you're so bad that they want your manager to stick around.

That's not great. That's low. Yeah. Like, what if the Kansas fans had been chanting, like, we want Sark, we want Sark. Like, that's just low. They did the SEC chant. They did the SEC chant.

That's insulting. Which is pretty bad, too. Yeah. He's got supposed to be SEC. And then, yeah, you know I had to get that Mai Tai with Dave and Barrett. A little Micah sprinkled in. We had some Micah sprinkles. Damn.

And then we hit that Rolling Stones concert. Shout out to everybody who made it out there in the traffic. Not great traffic on the way out there. We did toss on some Rolling Stones on the way there and just kind of vibed out a little bit. It was nice. That's huge for you because they're like your favorite band of all time. All time favorite band, man. I can't get enough of them. Yeah, it was cool seeing Mick Jagger the size of an

ant on a stage. It was sweet. No, I'm just kidding. It was actually pretty sweet. The setup they had at Circuit of the Americas for the Rolling Stones was insane. I don't think I've ever been to a concert of that size that wasn't a music festival, but it was pretty cool seeing them. Did they have an opening act? They did, but we completely missed it we didn't many people we didn't even get close like when we walked into the actual like place where you would you know post up they started playing their first song so it was like okay we we kind of had perfect timing with it even though we did have a delay um did he shout out any austin establishments he did but it, but he didn't do a good job with it. He got fed some bad information.

What did he say? I mean, if you're going to call out Austin places that are going to get the crowd riled up, I don't know if Tarrytown, one of the nicer neighborhoods in town, is going to really rile the majority of the crowd up. Is that what he said? Yeah, and it was like, okay. Shout out to the one percenters. Yes.

Oh. Oh. So I was like, okay, cool, um yeah we we stayed uh for a while we skipped the encore to beat traffic and i have to say it was the move we we we were very happy with that um and then uh yeah sunday uh my sister and her brother or my brother-in-law got into town with uh my niece if you guys want to congratulate me on being an uncle, now's the time. Congratulations. Dude, that's really huge for you. I'm an uncle.

And so, yeah, we hung out all day yesterday, watched a little football, and had some Indian food before I passed out after watching Succession and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Dude, sorry about your cowboys. Hey, man, we still them boys, though. Yeah, I was thinking that, too. I don't know what this says about me that I was cheering for the Lions to lose so that if they beat the Bears on Thanksgiving,

I can just flex on Randy that much harder. I didn't want to go in riding a win. I thought it would be better if we could go in winless and just beat the piss out of Randy's Chicago Bears. It could happen, man. It could happen. Justin Fields out. Okay.

Randy Dalton, though. Randy, now Randy doesn't care. The guy who put a Bears poster up in our office. For some reason, we haven't taken it down yet. At this point, it's squatters rights. The only NFL stuff we have in our office is a Bears poster and a Broncos team photo that's Brett's in. We need more.

Brett and Klein. Yeah, this is bad. And that's it for this weekend of fun, my friends. You know what I did wear yesterday for a little while? Is this about $10,000? Was it a Deion Sanders Cowboys jersey? Oh, we get more $10,000 stuff coming in the mail soon, don't we? I hope so.

I'm very excited for this. I've straight up fallen head over heels for $10,000. I love this brand. stuff is phenomenal I heard about how phenomenal their stuff was before we were sponsored by them I saw it on the timeline uh Shitto is a huge fan and once we got it in the mail I started to understand why people stand this brand as much as they do this is one of those brands that I used to see at the out in the wild at the gym mostly like and what is that brand that I keep seeing has like that you know very recognizable x on the oh yeah pant leg or whatever and I wanted to find out what they were and then they became a sponsor and now I'm I'm fully on board I love their stuff I would I would buy it not only would I buy a full price but I would buy

it using our code and not asking them for free stuff. Luckily for us, they send us free stuff. Which you did recently, I believe, didn't you? I did, yes. I did buy their Filson collab. Yeah. Yeah. We've all been wearing so many different things from them, but their 7-inch interval short with the liner, their lightweight shirt. They've got tons of features like silver ion for odor protection,

no-bounce pockets, breathable and lightweight shell fabric with stretch, no-bounce phone pocket. They've got it all. It's truly wonderful. The shirt is so good that if i have a gym day planned and that shirt's dirty from my previous gym day i'll do a little small load of laundry just to get that thing clean so i can rock it damn that's how much i like that shirt dude they're high quality they fit incredible most comfortable training shorts i've ever worn. Like, I absolutely love them. I'm a liner boy so far. I want to try their non-liners, though, to see what those are about.

Their liner ones are for my training, for my peli rides, for my, you know, brisk walks outside. Facts. Whereas when I go no liner, that means I'm just lamping around the crib, just doing my thing. Okay. Doing your thing. Yeah. The Session Short. It's a super lightweight one.

It's perfect for running yoga mobility. That's one that I like chilling in. But I recently bought the Interval Short. It's versatile and great for high-intensity interval training, Dylan, or HIIT as you call it. Right. Spinning, which I do. Metcons, short runs, and anything else you can think of. They're a direct-to-consumer company, so as you know, we hate middlemen around here, and they have absolutely no middlemen. They just have premium fabrics, trims, and techniques

that other brands simply cannot afford. They have a collaborative product development. Over 200 athletes test their gear. They need Shitto testing the gear. Pick the short that's best for your training, and then personalize with a custom liner and inseam options. They've got over 10,000 five-star reviews, free shipping and returns, and even a lifetime guarantee.

You don't have it? What? I replaced it on the soundboard and forgot to put it back. This is devastating. I've been looking forward to this for like 10 minutes. Was it the, let's go? Yeah, but I've unfortunately replaced it with TMZ Dave. I was actually just scouring TMZ.

Yeah, is it going well for you? It turns out, remember 80s pop sensation Tiffany of I Think You're Alone Now fame? That's where they had the breakfast. Correct. Actually, no, this is the musical artist. She was struggling through her seminal hit, and then she told the crowd, fuck you.

Oh, nice. Good. This is per TMZ. This is recent? Yeah, this is per TMZ. I don't know if you guys have seen TMZ. They played that song at Dirty Bills the other night. You know how sometimes they do music videos and they'll play the whole song throughout the bar?

I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't know every word to that song. I don't know it either. It's very popular. I didn't realize she was as big of a deal as she apparently is. Me neither. I never heard that name until like a month ago. Of who? Tiffany.

What did she sing? I Think We're Alone Now. I think we're alone now. See we're alone now so you know the song but like anyone around yes that one it's a it's a really good song to be fair yeah i just didn't know it i'm surprised she's still even touring like children behave that's what they say when we're together oh behave and watch hey. And watch how you play. They don't understand. And so we're running just as fast as we can, holding on to one another's hand. You didn't know those lyrics

at Dirty Bills? No. Dude. That song goes, though. It gets the people going. Can I do a worst of story? Yeah, please. Whatever, man.

We thought with the short week, you know, we enjoyed so much the holiday season a couple years ago, and we just did worst of stories throughout the entire time. And I dipped in, and I thought, you know what? Maybe there's a worst of story we can do today. And you know what I found?

I found one from the Monday before Thanksgiving 2019. Are you kidding me? The Monday before Thanksgiving. I think we need to read this story. You guys ready? I'm surprised we haven't done it already. How long has it been in your inbox? A long time.

Okay. A long time. All right, let's go. I call this Fall in Maryland Hits Different. You guys ever been to Maryland in the fall? I have not. I haven't either. I don't think so.

Let me take you back to November of 2019. The air in Maryland is certified crisp and holiday excitement is fully set in. It was the Monday before Thanksgiving, and I was finishing my shift at an athleisure store frequently mentioned on the pod. Must be 10,000. Congratulations. Definitely 10,000. 10,000.cc.

Promo code circling. I went to an adjacent restaurant meeting up with one of my best friends from high school. We'll call him Mike. One of my best friends from college, and we'll call him Andrew. We got Mike and Andrew in the mix. Is the adjacent restaurant like adjacent to his job at the athleisure store? No, I think it was a Jason's Deli. Okay.

Oh, get it Dave? Adjacent? I like playing guess what restaurant they might have eaten at at the mall because it's usually a Cheesecake Factory probably Chick-fil-a panda or sabaro i went to panda express one time and i ordered the panda and they didn't have any it's the murderer's row that's the murderer i was gonna say that of uh mall restaurants and you sometimes

if you walk by at the right time you can get a i don't know if they're doing it now a little sample a free sampy yeah you just get a little general sews go on about your business going on a foot locker i just picture you as like a little shithead teenager just filling up on free Sampies at the mall. Yep. I'm a shithead 34-year-old that does that at Costco. Dude, catch me at Total Wine. They've got stations on everything.

Do they do Sampies there? Yes, and it's aggressive. I Uber to the liquor store at this point because I know they're going to give me so many samples I can't drive home. I had to call Alyssa like, hey, can you come get me? Samples got me again. A lady tried to get me to sample some rosé at the grocery store recently. This was like two years ago. I was so hungover, and I just wanted to throw up all over her display.

I was like, please don't make me drink right now. Well, it's optional. It's not optional. They force it. They force it on you. The guy, just the guy who can't turn down a free booze. Just a sigh. Like, just give it to me. Mike

and Andrew, they both went to a military school, so when they had time off, they liked to get after it. It is important to note that I was getting out at 9 p.m. and I had another shift the next morning at 7 a.m. That's that classic holiday retail schedule that you guys probably know nothing about. No. My wife knows about it. I think she once quit a job because of that.

If there is one time that you regret working in retail, I can say it is around this exact time. There is absolutely nothing worse than trying to burn the candle at both ends. Dylan and I have a mutual friend who worked at the polo outlet in San Marcos, and I think he might have ghosted them during the holidays. Good. Good for him. Good for him.

Shouts for our retail folks out there putting in work. Absolute grind boys and grind girls. They're also, I consider them first responders as well really of the retail world okay facts i met them at a restaurant to find that they had spent the last few hours getting quite the head start on the evening i proceeded to play catch up as one does which quickly quickly led to us buying rounds of shots alternating between rumple mints and patrone oh my gosh my friends make a quick trip to the bathroom as i continue to chat up quickly led to us buying rounds of shots, alternating between Rumpelmints and Patron. Oh my gosh. My friends make a quick trip to the bathroom as I continue to chat up the bartenders and waitstaff,

many of whom had seemed to become our friends and reveled in our uncanny drinking pace. When my friends returned, they wanted to take a 45-minute Uber to my school to continue the night. I acquiesced, and as we waited for the Uber, I made my way to break the seal.

When I walked into the bathroom, I saw that my friends had spilled their guts all over the bathroom floor. It looked like a murder scene and smelled even worse. I rushed out of the bathroom and rushed to pay our tab, deciding that we could wait for the Uber outside. Kind of a shitty move. You can't just expel your demons all over the bathroom

and then just dip out. No, you gotta at least notify the staff. I hear we got a situation in here. Taking an Uber back to the school, like campus bars, what are we thinking here? Yeah. Yeah, they wanted some young honeys. Some baddies. Yeah.

I can see how this all transpired. They're in the group text. He's like, well, I don't get off till nine. They're like, well, dude, there's a fucking, there's a Panda Express right next to it. We can just get drunk there. This all happened at Panda. Yeah. Panda.

Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda.

Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. After a long ride of terrible small talk with the driver because Mike was napping and Andrew was incoherent, we made it to my college town. We made our way to the closest bar and continued our pace. We drank.

I dunked my face in a pitcher pretending I was bobbing for apples. I like that move. I think that's a funny move. That's a fun guy move. I don't bob for apples. Is that over? Do people still bob for apples at this point? Are you telling people at home that you don't bob for apples?

No, not in this climate. I dave for apples. Okay. What's that? It's where I... What? Go on. What is that? It's where I... What? Go on. What is daving for apples?

It's where, like, at a Halloween get-together, for example, there's apples in a liquid, and you can't use your hands, and you have to go in and use your teeth and get the apple out, and then it's your apple. Okay. Andrew saw to it that a couple of glasses met their early demise, accidentally releasing them from his grasp. Do you guys have one friend that always breaks glasses?

No. We have one friend who, if he's had a couple pops, he always ends up just shattering a million glasses. The look on his face is like, not again. I can remember the last time I broke a glass. There was a bar on 6th Street that is no longer there. It's called Logan's. You remember Logan's, Dave?

It was a great bar. It was a great bar. on 6th street that is no longer there it's called logan's if you remember logan's day it's a great bar it was a great bar they had two different size beers one was a standard pint glass and they had like a 35 ounce just huge mug and it was carrying it was heavy like a full one was like normal people can't hold it you have to have some kind of forearm presence they were so cool but we would always cheers with them, like clank them together, and we started to shatter them. It was like, this is like a regular occurrence, and finally the staff caught on and they put a stop to it. And now it's closed down. That bar was awesome. That was the best

bar on 6th for somebody who's above the age of 25. Yeah, they did the video, the movie clips they play over the speakers and on the TVs, and it would get people really hyped in there. It was fun. I heard they had to shut it down because the overhead of having to replace the glassware every single night became too much. I feel slightly responsible. I probably

broke 15 to 20 glasses in there over my... That's a lot of glasses. Yeah, you need to chill. What the hell? That's disrespectful. It was fun though. We need to keep in mind throughout this entire story that he is supposed to work at 7 a.m. the next morning, okay? During the busiest part of the holiday season for a lot of people.

Okay. The sound of the second one shattering seemed to come right around 2 a.m. because shortly after that, we were outside with the rest of the crowd. Mike and Andrew had met some laddies. I think he meant ladies. Lassies? Latties. Or lassies.

And wanted to go back to their apartment to continue to party. Being the only one in a relationship, there was nothing in it, but I decided to indulge my friends. He included that just to make sure that he didn't get in trouble. Maybe a laddie is like a male baddie. Like a lad, but also a baddie. I think he just meant to say ladies, but it's possible. Let me have this. Okay, you can have that.

We get back to the apartment where there are illicit drugs openly displayed on a table. I'm no narc, but that stuff isn't for me, so I continue to drink and pass the time. What did you figure out, Dave? A boy or young man. There we go. They hung out with some young laddies. Very cool. Of age, hopefully.

Fast forward to 4 a.m. and I'm violently drunk and we have officially lost Mike. I try to rally Andrew, but he has no interest in leaving. I walk outside to calm myself down and I see Mike crawling around the front yard on all fours trying to rid his body of the tequila and peppermint schnapps. As he's expelling his demons, I tell him that we need to pull it together and it's time to go.

We do not get the Uber to leave until around 5 a.m. Okay. together and it's time to go we do not get the uber to leave until around 5 a.m okay the you gotta something no no no no no 15 minutes into the ride i tell the driver that he needs to pull over his car or we'll get messy okay he makes his way to the shoulder i open the door and start violently throwing up on a major interstate. Not my finest moment. We get back to Mike's at 5.45 a.m. Andrew is quite literally unresponsive in the back seat. The driver is threatening to call an ambulance as we pull him out of the car.

I walk downstairs, sit on the couch, and I look at my phone. It's 6 a.m. exactly. I have to be at work in one hour. This is a bad choice. Well, here's a worse choice. His car is still at the store that he left at 9 p.m. the night before.

It's okay, I tell myself. I'll take a 45-minute nap and call an Uber. I'll stumble to work still drunk, but I'll be there. Just as I close my eyes, I hear a loud crash and bang. Andrew is trying to

walk down the stairs lost his balance and knocked off mike's well-framed high school baseball jersey do you have your baseball jersey framed in your sick no i don't do mike must have been a heck of a player he's got it framed wow he must uh he must have had a little run at state i thought you had all your jerseys framed dude no. No. No? Anderson High? Dorn jersey? Well, it says Chivalry on the back of my jersey. Oh. Yeah.

I have yet to throw away my Duncanville High School golf bag. You shouldn't. You should keep that forever. I want to keep it. I'm jealous. We didn't get to keep our golf bags. It was just rental. Not rental, but they just gave them to us and took them away.

Andrew was lying at the bottom of the stairs, half implanted in the drywall like a Tom and Jerry cartoon. Wow. He just went right through the wall. I don't know why it's so funny just imagining someone just half in the drywall, not moving. We've all been there. The noise wakes the house, but aside it's too much for me at that moment to handle.

I closed my eyes for what felt like a blink, and when I opened opened them any guesses as to what time it was when he opened his eyes um i'm gonna say 12 12 30 p.m oh i'm gonna say 8 45 11 30 a.m 15 missed calls 20 texts from a concerned girlfriend family and angry supervisors he says i didn't quite make it to work as i had planned the night still gives me anxiety and it's a good laugh when i talk about it with my boys what if you got fired i one time decided that it was going to be fun to throw a party on a uh random night i went to bed around what i would say 6 a.m had to be at work at 10 a.m the next day and i did something i've never done before. I woke up at 3 p.m. in my bed and had some— So you didn't make it.

I did not make it, and I had some calls from my manager at the time, and she was like, I don't care if you're not at work. I just want to know that you're okay. Oh. I just wanted to respond and be like, I am very much not okay right now. That's almost worse than a scolding because you're like, oh, man, they thought I was dead. very much that's almost worse than a scolding because you're like oh man they thought i was dead luckily for me i think i had more clout than her at that time at the actual like you know place of work so i got yeah i was the clout god everyone knows that about me man you know you just don't

even try to take a nap you just if it's if it's 6 a.m and you have to be at work in an hour that 30 minutes that 45 minutes it is not going to do anything. It's going to do more harm than good, I would say. If you even wake up, you're going to wake up feeling worse, I think. That's when you just try to hydrate, get you a liquid IV or two, get some booming loud, no creamer, and you ride. At this point, I think you just have to call in sick. You just got to call and be like, no, I absolutely cannot come in. My body is rejecting everything. But then they're like what your car's here where

are you shout out to the dudes who were blowing chunks violently that rallied to go to like to go to a little boy's house to go do coke were they doing i mean at least it did didn't do coke i would have that would have made his life a lot worse his anxiety would have been much worse Were they doing... I mean... At least it didn't do coke. That would have... That would have made his life a lot worse. His anxiety would have been much worse. Somebody in that group took an Adderall. Yeah. Yeah.

Somebody. Actually, let's pause the coke talk for a few minutes. We might... Are we going to talk Kid Rock? As you guys know, new Kid Rock videos come out. No, Dylan, that's actually why we brought you here today. Why don't you sit down? Stop.

I need to start. Actually, I've already heard this Kid Rock song, but it's only been through TV speakers as well as laptop speakers. I need to hear it through some earbuds, if you know what I'm saying. Maybe some Raycons. Power on. Connected. It's never too early to start gift shopping for the holidays,

especially because today you can save big on the gift that they'll use every single day. Raycon wireless earbuds. These are earbuds that the whole squad enjoys. We currently have Randy just absolutely scrapping trying to get some for himself. Oh, poor Randy. He is so thirsty for some Raycon earbuds. Poor Randy. With seamless Bluetooth pairing and a comfortable noise-isolating fit, you can start listening right away and keep listening for hours.

The audio quality is amazing, comparable to what you get from other premium brands, except Raycons start at half the price, and that is facts. The new Everyday Earbuds come with three new sound profiles just to make sure that everything you're listening to sounds its best. They've got Pure Mode, you know, for podcasts like us. We're pure. Pure. Pure.

Pure. They got blues, instrumental. Also, balanced mode. Again, you can do podcasts in there, rock, heavy metal. They even have bass mode for hip-hop, EDM, reggae. I woke up in balanced mode. I thought you were going to do a Meghan Trainor reference there, all about that bass mode. That works, too.

You took it a different route. They've got eight hours of play time and a 32-hour battery life. Think about that. You know what? I challenge that number, too, because I think it's a lot better than what they actually advertise. I got on the Peloton for the first time in a month the other day, and my Raycons were sitting there, and I was like,

man, these are my Peloton headphones because they stay in my ears well. They fit well. They've got booming loud sound quality. Booming loud. I was worried. I was like, man, you know, these are my Peloton headphones because they stay in my ears well. They fit well. They've got booming loud sound quality. Booming loud. I was worried. I was like, you know what? These might be dead. No, they weren't.

They were so alive. They were like a P.O.D. song. For the very first time. Don't. They did not deny me. Oh, Dylan doesn't like P.O.D. now? I don't know that song. I had nothing to say.

You don't like an obscure new metal band from the early 2000s? I certainly don't. What if you're someone who's like, oh, man, I need headphones, but I need them for work so I can talk and do stuff while I'm on Zoom meetings? Well, guess what? They got a built-in mic, and you take calls from your earbuds at the press of a button. So this holiday season, get them something they can use for calls or music,

for work or for play at home or on the go, from the boardroom to the discotheca. Or pick up a pair for yourself. Do yourself a favor. Trust me, you're going to use them every day. Go to buyraycon.com slash steam today to unlock exclusive deals up to 20% off your Raycon order. But hurry,

like the message behind the song too yeah i do i love it man he's just putting the snowflakes on blast don't tell me how to lay not a fan of the snowflakes on blast. Don't tell me how to live. Not a fan of the snowflakes. No. First line of the song is, fuck all you hoes. Detroit till I die, motherfucker, is the second line. So he kind of just sets the tone right there. Talking all that bullshit.

Ain't nobody going to tell me how to live. Nobody. Yeah. I was worried about Kid Rock for a little bit. I think he went a little too Nashville. He got a little too worried about trying to be a singer-songwriter. He went the Bob Seger path for a little bit. He's back.

And he decided, you know what? Nah. He's back on his bad boy bullshit. Yeah. He's like, nah, I got to take it back to the real me. Man, the headlines on this song from Complex. Kid Rock slams wokeness and cancel culture. A new song.

Don't tell me how to live. I think Kid Rock's going to cancel culture. Whoa. Can I read some of the lyrics from the final verse of this song? Only if you do it as Christopher Walken. I can't do that. You know I don't have a good walk-in. But I sling more dick.

I play more riffs. I slide through grass. I rip more lines Than a 10 pound bass That's a good line It is a good line Yeah Openly talking coke It's about cocaine folks

I've always said The coolest people Are the ones who tell you How much coke they do Yeah He says You never tell me shit You never flip my script

Because I'm more outrageous Than the Vegas strip Oh shit That is outrageous We'll be there For your bachelor party We will You're like Mayberry, bitch.

I'm hard and crisp. High risk hillbilly, but I'm filthy rich. Okay. You're like Milli Vanilli, kind of silly and shit. I'm like shotgun Willie smoking fillies and shit. I'm like Reverend Ron or David Lee Roth, like Springsteen, bitch. I'm the motherfucking boss. James Dean shit, I'm more like Brad Pitt.

A little less pretty, but I sling more dick. I twang more riffs. I slide through grass. I rip more lines than a 10-pound bass. Pass the mic, I'm like a slow gin fizz. Ain't nobody, ain't nobody, ain't nobody going to tell me how to live. Damn, that's bad boy shit. Can I ask a question?

When he references Mayberry, is that a reference that the kids are going to get? Do you think the kids are up on uh andy griffith griffith show uh references i don't even know what i don't even know what that is referencing is the fictional community that was the setting for the andy griffith show which um you know i think his audience is a little older you guys watch riverdale no randy you're a riverdale guy somebody's it's maybe it's brent somebody's a riverdale guy dude did they you know the riverdale guy. Somebody's a Riverdale guy. Dude, you know the Riverdale intro? They show Harbor Springs as Riverdale.

Really? They have a drone shot. And Netflix, like, Instagrammed the other day and was like, what's your favorite fictional town? And it says Riverdale, and then there's a picture of Harbor Springs underneath it. I want to be like, can we, like, is Harbor Springs getting any kickback for being Riverdale's city?

So Riverdale's a fictional town. I know nothing about this show. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. They got to use something. That's a compliment.

I feel like we should get some kickback for that. Dope little town, man. I feel like Riverdale's one of the more popular shows on Netflix, and I feel like they're really profiting off of that show. Can we at least get like a, I don't know. You should run for mayor. Dude, I was setting up for that, and then you tried to hire me at Grand X, and I had no choice no choice hey do you still go on those chill on the most um cruises you

went on like five like five years in a row didn't you yeah kovid kind of killed me going on them unfortunately killed a lot of people yeah i try to go jesus but i do i do try to make it every year you know yeah yeah if there's three things that i like to set aside time for it's you know spending holidays with my family like thanksgiving and christmas and then going on a kid rock cruise with all the people that go on kid rock cruises find the flying clientele dude even before the coronavirus do you remember the cruise ship like five years ago that had the rotavirus outbreak and everybody everybody was just full body exploding. And they couldn't dock. They wouldn't let them in because everybody was so sick.

It's always bad when you can't dock. You know how to dock. When we got off the EDM cruise and the Kid Rock cruise also had everyone getting off of that cruise and leaving. I think they were getting on. Oh, they might have been getting on. But I remember thinking to myself, you know what? Maybe we didn't have it so bad on this EDM cruise.

They were just riding a different wave than we were. There was not enough light beer in the world to sustain what that Kid Rock cruise needed at that time. You don't typically see people wearing black leather jackets getting onto a cruise ship, but we saw them that day. That was the peak place for those novelty t-shirts that people get Facebook ads sent to them about. Like, I'm a mother of two who doesn't put up with your bullshit but it's like it's like what who made this shirt yeah somebody's very wealthy off those shirts a lot of bandanas and tattoos and in black leather so you back in on kid rock i don't know if i can claim kid rock at this point he's a little too unhinged for me to hitch my wagon to right now, but I will say that I'm happy that he is getting back to his roots.

Okay. I mean, it's just like his old songs, he was just going so Seeger on them, and no one can do Seeger but Seeger. But now that he's starting his songs with Fuck All You Hoes, Detroit Till I Die, Motherfucker, I know that he is somewhat back. Let me say this. You're doing him a lot of favors even comparing him to Seeger.

Yeah. That's like the biggest compliment you could pay Kid Rock. Yeah. Yeah. I'm saying he tried to go the Seeger route. He tried to go the Seeger route. Are you still allowed to listen to the Sheryl Crow-Kid Rock duet? Why wouldn't I be allowed to?

Not you, but just in general. Picture, picture away. That was a big player in high school. It was a bummer that Sally and I didn't get to have the wedding that we were originally going to have because instead of doing a first dance, we were just going to do a picture, a duet together on stage.

That would have been mega cute. That would have been cute, man. Dave, I would like to allow me to be the first to wish you a happy anniversary of Creed's performance at the Cowboys. Your Dallas Cowboys. My Dallas Cowboys. We done boys. Yeah.

You know, it's a video that pops up every few months, and it's one you got to watch. It's like a movie that when you pass through, you're like, oh, I'm going to watch the last 30 minutes of this movie. It's one you got to watch. It's like a movie that when you pass through, you're like, oh, I'm going to watch the last 30 minutes of this movie. It's that good. You've got a guy flying around in silk sheets with shirtless. I don't know, like a Cirque du Soleil thing. You got Creed doing their seminal hit, Higher. Can you take me higher?

That's pretty good. Do Christopher Walken singing higher. This is also the anniversary of Darren Revelle posting the Zapruder video on Twitter. JFK. JFK, he was shot in the head. Dude, what's his problem? They got him. Okay?

Messing with the wrong industry. I'll never prepare for how graphic that video is. Back and to the left. Dude, Revelle's unhinged. Pretty sure you can see brain in that video. Very Back and to the left. Revelled unhinged. Pretty sure you can see brain in that video. Very cool. Okay.

A lone gunman. A magic bullet. You're doing great. I think you just run with it. The book Depository. Cuban exiles. All right, I'm done. When Jackie like

crawls to the back of the car to retrieve part of a skull? Correct. That's pretty sad. How did we get here? It is sad. Well, it's the anniversary. It's the anniversary. We didn't have much on Creed, and then we were like, you know what, let's talk assassinations.

I never went through a Creed phase. I actually got actively bummed when they were on TRL. It was like, damn it, we have to sit through this Creed video before I can see like Britney Spears. I feel like Creed

should have gotten most of the Nickelback hate and they both got it for their fair share but Nickelback was like the band to hate on for a long time. They at least had good pop.

Creed is just as bad. What was Scott Stapp in recently? Wasn't he in some documentary recently and we were like what is this guy doing here uh oh the woodstock one woodstock 99 yeah and he seemed completely it didn't seem like a real person it's it seemed like he was pretending to be a normal human and scott stapp just wanted to break out that was one of the weirder moments of that documentary yeah he did have a weird his vibes were definitely off hey dylan um i actually found some old footage of you from high school is it how many um was your walk-up music uh with arms wide open

what was your walk-up music we didn't have walk-up music man lame yeah we weren't that cool when i'm the wide wall paul it's. We don't need that in high school, you know. Becomes a thing in college. Anyway, but no, Dave, you didn't find that video. I would pay money. I would pay at least $100 for footage of you just taking BP or something. Oh, okay. I recently acquired VHS tapes of some of my old highlights.

Need it. And I don't know how to watch them. Give them to Randy. Can you digitize these, Randy? And put like sick music to them? Can we put it to Kid Rock? Like Here Comes the Boom by P.O.D.? There actually might be a CD or two.

But I think it's like a DVD, I should say. Sorry. But I think they're VHS. Anyway, I'll bring them in. See what we can do. Trying to think of a way I can spin this into an old person joke, but I'm just going to leave it alone. It pretty much speaks for itself.

Yeah, it does. Yeah, thank you. I still hear high school highlights are on VHS. Yeah. Also a DVD. I think Sally had an iPhone in high school highlights around VHS. Yeah. Also a DVD. I think Sally had an iPhone in high school. But I think I had the DVDs because my mom at some point just translated it over somehow. Transferred.

Translated it over. Not translate, but transferred. No, she didn't have one. June 29, 2007. So she had one her freshman year of college. Okay, it's Christopher Walken going into one of those places that will digitize your stuff, and you're having to explain to them that all your stuff's on VHS and it's your –

Yeah, I have these old tapes from my high school baseball days. Really? Christopher, yeah. I didn't know you were a baseball player, Christopher. Mostly left field. Okay. Made a bad error one game. And they put me a DH, designated hitter.

Yeah. That's a true story. What was the error? You missed the cutoff, man. I lost the ball in the lights. Were you fucking texting someone or something? I lost the ball in the lights. It was a very crucial moment.

We had a district winning streak on the line. And my error caused some runs to score. Tied up the game. We went into extras. We ended up winning in like nine innings, nine or ten. And you hit the game-winning home run, right? And it was like full circle? Wish I could say I did.

You should definitely just tell us that. No, he struck out looking on three pitches. And then I was put a DH after that. I had one game-winning potential moment in Little League. It was probably seventh or eighth grade. And running on first and second, we're down like one. I just needed to put one in play. And I popped out foul territory.

And it was just such a popcorn fart. Like, yep, there's that. I guess I'll go fuck off. Thus ended my baseball career. I'm sorry, man. That's all my baseball career. I'm sorry, man. That's all right, man. I don't think about it every night or anything. It's probably on VHS somewhere.

It probably is. You want to transfer those over to DVD? I'm going to try. Okay. I don't know. Have you talked to him in a while? Yeah, he might not even do it. Do we have a new sponsor alert on deck right now? New sponsor? We have a new sponsor alert on deck right now?

New sponsor? We have a new sponsor alert. Do you guys want to hear a little story about me? Please. I'm a terrible gift giver. Okay. Never been good at it. Not happy about it.

I always struggle to figure out what gifts I can give people. But guess what? Bowling Branch may be making things a little bit easier on me. The gift everyone wants is a better night's sleep, and Bowling Branch never disappoints with the highest quality sheets, blankets, pillows, and throws. Plus, their holiday packaging makes your gift look and feel special. Recently got some of these in the mail, Dylan. So did I, Will.

What color did you get? Ooh. I don't know. Oh, yeah. You're not the person to ask this to. I'm not the color guy. I forgot. Yeah, I got white. Okay. We're a white sheet family at this point. You can't the person to ask this to. I'm not the color guy. I forgot. Yeah, I got white.

Okay. We're a white sheet family at this point. You can't go wrong with white. No. And I have to say I'm very happy with them. Not only are they soft, but the colors and fabrics that you choose, there's just a bunch of them. The variety here is through the roof.

These are comfortable. These are quality sheets, and they are all at a fair price. I mean, you wouldn't consider gifting someone sheets if you knew they were mid-sheets, right? Of course not. Yeah, I wouldn't do that either. These are truly a special gift, one that they'll enjoy every single day. I'm a hot sleeper. I run hot.

You're a hot boy. I had to set up my thermostat to go down a little bit at night when I turn down at night. Dude, I'm a hot sleeper too, and it's a problem. Luckily for us, Bowling Branch makes it a lot easier to get through that. I can't be a cuddle boy for that reason, man. Kind of a tough scene. I'm going to tell you what color I got. That's why I have to be Little Spoon because I can't have that heat in front of me.

Ooh, I think I got Dune. Oh, that was a good one. Yeah. That was a good one. I asked Bay her advice because we'll, you know, we'll be sharing a bed here pretty soon. These guys, Bowen Branch holds himself to high standards across the board from sourcing pure organic cotton to putting their workers' rights first. And it's not just their sheets that are made the right way. Their pillows, bath towels, and their robes are too. I

need to cop one of their robes. The fact that we have a sponsor that's selling robes and I don't have a robe on me at all times, it's upsetting. Their signature hem sheets are their all-time bestseller. They're beloved for so many reasons, like how they get softer with every single wash. Buttery soft, lightweight, made with 100% organic cotton weave that feels incredible in all seasons. And just like all their sheets, they come in a wide range of colors and sizes, from twin to California king, Dylan. You're a Cali king boy, right?

I used to be. I'm now a king. People don't know that the king is actually wider than the California King. The California King's longer? Exactly. It's for like a taller person. Dang. Treat yourself and your loved ones to the new standard embedding from Bowl & Branch.

Hey, so I ran to the gents' room while y'all were doing that ad read apologize there's a dude in there doing his business and his phone rang and he took the call and he said can i call you back in like 20 minutes and i was like just don't answer yeah don't answer one but he's just like 20 minutes 20 minutes i'm like, you're putting in some work, my man. Jeez. Classic. Very cool. I think it's about time we stan somebody. Ooh, I've been waiting for this all weekend long, man.

Dude, we have some major news. We have a new announcement to make. This is Man of the Week? This is our real Man of the Week. Here's our theme song. New segment. Okay. Here's our theme song. New segment. Okay. Okay, that's enough.

Tim the Toolman Taylor. Big shout out to Eva Huddo. What if it's Ava? It might be Ava. You give me a little USB. What do you got, Dave? I just want to do something here. Eva Hutto. That's it.

Thank you. She's our real man of the week. She is our real man of the week, although she is man of the week Although she is a woman who just turned 100 Oh I just turned 100 Anyone who would like to guess what her secret to longevity is Can I guess? That's why I can't hear you

Yes, Dave Go ahead and guess I'm going to say My ears are too old It's not whiskey It's not a whole plate of bacon every day I'm going to say Big Mac

Big Mac fries Large Coca-Cola Classic It coca-cola classic it's a good guess every day it's a good guess but no well you get any guesses on what her secret to longevity is and why she's 100 i'm gonna say that every day for the last 100 years she's had a a rare media or rare porterhouse steak that she eats for dinner every single night. She loves succession. 30-ounce peahouse. Actually, her secret to living 100 years is

every day she drinks a piping hot cup of Super Fantastic with no cream or sugar. Absolutely no cream, no sugar. Cream is for sissies, as we all know. Just bean water. That's got to be the secret, because I bet no sugar cream is for sissies as we all know just bean water that's got to be the secret because i bet no one else is doing that yes also um justo stays active which i'm sure has nothing to do with her living 100 years it's all about the uh the coffee what does

she do for her activity it does i don't think it's crazy the photo they use she's actually wearing a bunch of 10 000 workout gears those are the tactical shorts. Yeah. She lives in Jacksonville, which, of course, as we all know, is the largest city by land area in the lower 48. You've amended that. After I got called out, yeah. We're really happy for Eva. Yeah.

If we could send her anything, I hope she's listening and we can. I stopped putting cream in my coffee in 1933. A great cream shortage. It's for sissies. I think dairy's for pussies. That's not the secret to longevity. It's not. Yeah, like you see fucking.

It's a, many, many people do the same thing. Yes. Many people. Yeah, it's, you know, it's just. Good genetics, living an active life probably has something to do with it. You know. I think it's just avoiding danger. Like, at this point, like, if she trips at this point, like, it's getting scary.

It's over. She trips? I had one nip of whiskey every single day before work, and I feel good. So you're an alcoholic. You just had a drinking problem. Yeah. Dude, she cannot stop sipping the boom and lap. There's someone that I'm tangentially associated with,

and they did not know for a very very long time that bailey's coffee creamer contained alcohol oh i think you told us every morning for almost a year they were putting a little bailey's creamer in their coffee and she i think she eventually had to switch grocery stores i think she moved or something and she went up to someone at the grocery store and she was like, hey, I can't find the Bailey's coffee cream. And they're like, oh, it's probably over in the liquor section because, you know, grocery stores outside of Texas sell liquor. And she soon realized that she had been drinking every single morning. Oh, my gosh.

That is really funny. It would be terrible to have that realization that you've just been drinking every single day. How much alcohol is in that? I don't know. Let's find out. Since you put just like a little taste of it, it's got to be pretty potent, right? I mean, probably. Like, I mean, have you ever had it?

It tastes good. Yeah, of course I've had it. It is good. Ooh, it's almost eggnog season, folks. I don't know. I have like a love-hate with it. I'm actually surprised you even like eggnog. I love eggnog. I bought some eggnog Tr, folks. I don't know. I have like a love-hate with it. I'm actually surprised you even like eggnog. I love eggnog.

I bought some eggnog Trader Joe's yogurt. Not good? I probably won't do it again. Eggnog is really good for exactly one glass. Yeah. Kind of like a Bloody Mary for me. I bought like a thing of eggnog last year, and I bought it for,

it was like a Farms version. It wasn't some like, you know, they didn't have any preservatives in it, I was like hold on wait so I need to drink all of this in the next like three days like that's too that's too much cream there's a lot of cream I'm a certified cream boy but well not me I'm a real man are you gonna live to 100 because you don't put anything in your super fantastic what would happen to Eva if she tried a little bit of like picnics, souped up Mayan mocha with MCT? She would just destroy her insides. Yeah.

Does she make it through like eight ounces of that? No. Honestly, it might take her out. That's too many calories for her at this point. She can't take that. She would be disgusted if she saw a cool Adam, intern cool Adam walk in with his McDonald's. Have you seen – those things are wild.

She would hobble up to him and try to swat it out of his hand only to break a finger off while she was trying to do it. One of those hit the tea the other day. It looks like just iced milk. She looks like the cryptkeeper. He walked in here the other day. I felt bad because we just immediately

couldn't stop. You guys shit all over him. I felt so bad for him. He drank it. But it just, it is the most, there was so much going on in that coffee. There was just so much creamer. Cool Adam's on a journey to get jacked. Is he?

Yeah. Yeah. I screenshot of that. I meant to send it to the meme team. He told me he only, like if his dad's trying to have a beer with him, like around the holidays, that he does not have that. And he has a glass of water before he goes to the gym. Cause he doesn't want to go to the gym on one beer.

He's a night gym guy. Damn. He's committed to the game. He's committed to the game. I would say, I would say, don't let your quest for gains get in the way of having a beer with with your pop if you were here i would say look man i get it you want to get jacked but dad wants to have a beer have a beer

with dad it's the best beer i like that i'm now off of my pedestal does cole campbell put cream and sugar in his super fantastics oh i don't even want to hear how he would word that. Oh, he puts half and half, and he puts a lot of it. What is half and half? He also puts a little cinnamon at the bottom of his coffee filter before putting the grounds in. That might be something. I know.

I kind of want to try that. But then he just dumps half and half in there. Bad boy shit. Yeah. Seriously, what is half and half in there. Bad boy shit. Yeah. Seriously, what is half and half? I don't know what's in it. It's like half milk, half cream, I think. Look it up, Will, so I don't sound like a total dumbass.

It's just milk that's been thickened with additives like corn syrup. Oh, okay. That's syrup made of corn. Sit up. oh okay that's syrup made of corn sit up if you uh yeah if you earn a pinch for like some milk and all you have is half and half if you cut with a little bit of water it tastes pretty much just like milk like for cereal purposes i'm saying you know okay couldn't be me yeah i was gonna say like for your coffee you don't need that no not for you come on not a fucking black only. I actually eat my cereal with water. Filtered.

When I was a kid one time, I poured a bowl of, I forgot what kind of cereal it was, cornflakes or something, and I went to the fridge and we had no milk. I'm like, ah, shit. And at the time, and I was probably like seven, like, okay, well, orange juice is also like a breakfast liquid. So I just put OJ in there, and it was really terrible like a breakfast liquid. So I just put OJ in there and it was really terrible. A breakfast liquid. So I acquired some, probably a VHS of some Blink-182 behind the scenes tour thing. I got it for Christmas one year.

And one of the guys said that they would eat their breakfast, their cereal, with orange juice in it. And I was like, I was so obsessed with Blink-182 at the time. I was like, I have to go do this. It's really bad. I think I tried to stomach it like twice before I was just like was so obsessed with Blink-182 at the time I was like I have to go do this it's really bad I think I tried to stomach it like twice and before I was just like what am I doing is that like what what am I doing is that to like get the benefits of like

the vitamin C like all and save time it's with your cereal it must be I think the guys in Blink-182 are super health conscious and worried about their vitamin C levels shout out to Tom. Shout out to Trav. They might get reunited.

They might get reunited. Shout out to Mark. Cancer free. Let's go. That's great. You know what his secret is, right? He doesn't put any fucking cream in his fucking coffee. Why is she so vile?

I don't know. She's got a mouth on her. Eva Hutto has a potty mouth on her. She's a nice old lady. She's an old bag of bones, though. Look at her. Okay. She's 100.

That's a bag of bones, Dave. I like that if you go to the mentions of this tweet, there's only two people getting mentioned in it. It's you and Big Cat. I know. I saw that, too. His mentions just be filled with coffee memes. It's got to be all coffee at this point. Funny guy.

A funny guy. He's a funny guy. Can we get out of here, please? Christopher Walken gets taken too far. Bye. you
