all right we're back circling back pod my name is dave welcome to all the new uh viewers and listeners Welcome to the show, of which there are many. With the Stoly's. I don't know if it's the Stoly. All the people out Lubbock way, probably. All my good friends in Post, all my friends out in White Deer, Pampa. Out in the Patch. Producing is Randall Trumbacky.

Hi, Dave. I'm going to take my opportunity to thank everyone that voted for Robert ten times. We got him. You got a big Dancing with the Stars win, Robert Irwin. So is that controversy? Was that like... Joe, we did it. We did it, Joe.

What happened? And no, he just won. I saw some upset things on Twitter. Some upset girls that voted for Alex. Yeah, I mean, people were being very rude and saying that he wrote his dead dad trauma to the finals. It was like, he was a very good dancer and it came very close. Did he do a dance that was a tribute to his dead dad? Yeah, at one point.

Hey, okay, hold on. He did like a lot more tributes to his like sister and his mother, though. But that was like a couple nights ago, like a couple weeks ago. I didn't expect that answer. They did do a tribute night. How do you pay homage to a deceased relative via dance? Through dance. It's an art form, Dave.

The same way you could do it through a song. I know, but what was the song he chose? I don't know. Actually, the tribute night I remember he did was dedicated to his mother. and then there was another like free night that he did because bindi his sister did a tribute to her dad and so he was doing a reenactment of her dance and all that it was it was very touching so he did a he did a dance to glendanzig's mother i sure is that mother it is okay uh yes no congrats uh robert it was either between alex and robert i would have been happy either way but this is alex errol

Alex Earl, yeah. And she is a noted influencer of TikTok? Yep. Is she the one that was stealing all the dances, and that's how she became big, or is that somebody else? I don't think she was really a dancer on TikTok. She's just an influencer.

I just don't know. I'm folding one. I thought she was one of the original, like, Instagram influences. She might be one of the original Instagram. She was in the Carl's Jr. commercials during the Super Bowl last year. That's true.

She was. I'm hungry. Let me tell you. Honey for something. But also, I'll just say that you two looks so scrumdile-diluptious today. Wow. I think it's the first time, even though I got grouped in with Dave this time, that I've been called that by Randy.

So that's a big day for me. Oh, did you say you too? Yeah, both of you. Oh, both y'all. Wow. Randy finally called Dylan. Jack and my swag. Scrum.

Try to figure out how to spell dittily umptious. Scrum ditta. This guy can't even spell. Can't even read. If you're new here. there's probably one of us you're aware of and it's this guy um Dylan shivery and uh I'm going to go ahead and say since you decided to wear the same hoodie that I was wearing today brought to us by our friends at Roebuck why don't you throw on this shirt that someone sent you

it's very timely how about instead of putting it on I'll just hold it up because I don't want to get up and do all that but it is a big Johnson shirt if you're not familiar with Big Johnson you're probably younger than 36 but it is a big Johnson's shirt and it says Morning Wood Big Johnson's morning wood Lumberyard Early to Rise and it says

First get hammered then get nailed And it's a fantastic I don't know who said it just said Max on the package On the return address We don't even have a last name so thank you Max For the very thoughtful t-shirt It looks like there's no

It doesn't say Wonder if it's game one There's no tag. It looks like a size large, maybe. So that's, it might be for your boy. I don't know. That's pretty good, man. Thanks, Max.

Good stuff. You have one more Big Johnson shirt than I do. I've been looking for a Big Johnson shirt. Also an and one shirt. That was a big player on Spring Break when we did go to Spring Break and we weren't doing Spiff Godai. Right. We would go on spring break and like my buddies from high school, we would always try to find like,

because you could get a Big Johnson shirt at like the beach shops. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Like, if you went to the place that you had to walk into a Great White Shark's mouth, you could find you a big Johnson tea. Borders. Back in, like, 2008. Parks loves that big shark.

It's a good spot. Yeah, Dylan. Pretty happy to be here. I would like to say, thank you, Dave, in a very sarcastic way for tweeting the video of me from a podcast with my cowboy hat on. And using the term real cowboy from Austin because nothing gets squared toes fired up like seeing real cowboy from Austin on Twitter. And then all, I don't know, I don't know how many responses I got for that. But I was just posting the clip.

I got a good clip from Adam. I got many, many responses saying there's no such thing as a real cowboy from Austin. Then I got called gay a bunch more, which was fun. So thank you for that. I appreciate you. Thanks for tagging me in it too because my notification, someone that me who hasn't really tweeted since September, I usually never have notifications.

I tagged everyone that was in the tweet or in the video. I got someone tell me that square toes are better for real cowboys because it has more room for your toesies. He didn't say it like that. He said it in a more masculine way. But basically it's kind of makes sense. They're more, yeah, they're more. you know i don't know the word useful okay comfortable yeah which is fine i don't really care anymore

i was just posting the clip i thought we i thought we were going to own our takes and put it out there i thought that that was the whole goal of the thing man just kind of put it out there friends out in lubbock they can either love it or leave it i did like someone just just cut your portion of you reading a tweet that just said like i'm a gay liberal ass hippie from Austin. That was just his response, just that clip. Oh, that was one of the gaucho guys. Oh, was it? I think. Shout out to the gambling gauchos who had fun with that. Man. Yeah, that was fun. That was really fun. We picked up a lot of momentum on Instagram. Picked up a lot of followers. I think you might be the, you might be the voice of Texas athletics right now, judging by the makeup of our followers.

These aren't hate followers. These are actual, like, Austin-based or Texas fan followers. Well, a very, very limited sample size, but I was just like, okay, I want to see because like I looked at my phone and I was like, well, we picked up like 50 followers since I've posted it, like an hour in. I'm like, who are these people? And it's a lot of people who seem to skew Longhorn, but a lot of tech people, a lot of cactus, cacti.

That's the identifier on Twitter. But a lot of cacti. And I think it's people who watch the clip and we're like, oh, this is pretty funny. This guy is, like, pretty self-aware and getting dunked on and, like, thinks it's funny. And they realize the show, it's a good show. Some people like it. Hey, speaking and doing numbers, do we need to do more photo shoots around the office and post them on Instagram? Oh, the, um, the Fair Harbor photo shoot we did was very well received. Yeah. It was. Shout to Fair Harbor.

I do. You weren't even part of it. No, I was in here. I was in here working on stuff, but I knew you guys were doing it, but, like, seeing you go down that little hill on the skis, that was the best photo. You didn't go very far. Yeah. I didn't go anywhere. Yeah. It's hard to get those feet with your new balance shoes on attached to those skis in the proper binding way. Yeah.

I honestly was worried about my shoulder because there was one photo. where Brett had me, uh, he wanted to have Dylan throw hip check me into the boards, the board's being a fence. Um, I wonder to the board's pretty hard. And I'm, I gotta tell you, like about an hour after, my shoulder hurt pretty pad.

I was like, I, yeah. Is it because of the way I hit you or your own self-infliction? No, I jump, I think I jumped into it way harder than I needed to. I wanted to be my fault. That was, see, that was me putting, uh, that ass on Dylan. Yeah. Just a classic hip check right there. I mean, this is, this is, this is,

is just a great photo. That wasn't really moving. It was clearly, and I was going to pizza anyway. So, like, I wasn't going to have any speed of anywhere anywhere. Yeah, I think that was Brett's favorite, too. Check out Fair Harbor. Big show today. Some good ones.

Go get a like if you haven't yet. We do have a big show today. This is dangerous, guys. OSHA would not approve of the way. Yeah, apparently I'm not supposed to be standing on that step. No, no, you're not. Whatever. Well, then why is it a full step?

No, it doesn't really go with the vibe.

It went with the vibe of the lodge. I told Brett that he could put him up in his place, but he already has another pair of skis up there. Of course he does. Of course he does. I had to hang him. I'd get on a big little ladder, put him up there.

Anytime he needs something done at the crib, he just gets Randy over there. Look at that, timely. Oh, yeah. How about that? There's the skis. Those are the ones that I think are on Brett's. Oh, you know what photo we should have done?

in the midst maybe I'll just if your if your tweet goes viral again what's going to happen is he's going to win the Heisman who? Rodriguez Rodriguez no he's not

he's going to be a Heisman finalist They try to get him a cheap little touchdown pass to pad the stats Heisman moment I love that move to an interception that tweet's going to make the rounds again

I'm going to drop in the photo from our Christmas party like three or four years ago where we're all. Well, I'm in the sweater vest. Yeah, it's like we're all at the private room at Carve. The hat is bad. Everybody is all westerned out and Randy's right. What were you wearing on your head? It was just a leftover hat that Gordo had.

They didn't want any more. And I understand why. It wasn't the best shape. The sweater vest that like your third grade teacher will wear on Christmas. Yep. Miss Snyder wore that? Yeah. As she walked up to the overhead

With just goofy Christmas shit on it It's great I think I'm remembering it correctly Yeah It was all like that way It was very red It looked homemade Oh yeah I actually came across it the other day

that wide set front yeah you do huge I know I wore it backwards look that crew man look that crew look at

Brett. There was some real cowboys right there. A real cowboy for sure. We just got off the range right there. Yeah, I'll start. I had a fantastic Thanksgiving break. Just had, we hosted, Chelsea and I hosted Thanksgiving. So we had the family over, had my dad, my sister, a brother, a lot, my nieces. And, man, we put on an absolute just show.

I made my world famous beer rolls, which a lot of people are asking for. the recipe i'll probably share that at some point they were fantastic but yeah we hosted and it was a great time um watched a lot of football on thanksgiving cowboys low key might be good again i don't know what's going on there friday watched uh my horns absolutely take care of business against the aggies and uh little date night last night chelston i I went to Jeffries, which is probably my favorite restaurant in Austin. It's a great restaurant. It's a first time there.

And yeah, it was just, it was very relaxing. Got some cool weather. Got the Christmas stuff out. Decorated the Christmas tree with parks yesterday. That was great. Not much else, man. Just low-key, good family time. Low-key good family time.

Yeah. Love it. Randall. Hi, Dave. I had a swell Thanksgiving break. Tuesday, of course, I watched Robert Irwin when. Thanksgiving, actually. I had three invites to go different places.

I was like, no. I want to just sit home, get high, and watch Stranger Things. And I did. And we'll get into that, I assume, later about Stranger Things. We're just a little disappointed on how much there was. I thought the runtimes were pretty short, and there was only four episodes. I was like, oh, I'm ready done. And I have the evenings, like the night still.

I thought I was going to be up late. But you watch them all during the day? Yeah, pretty much. Okay. I still had to finish the last episode of season four, too, because I was doing a rewatch. But yeah. Dude, Parks is all in on Stranger Things, and he's like begging me to get caught up. And I have a lot to watch to get caught up, like three seasons worth.

I mean, it's good. It's just not going to happen. I know. It's just not. He watched them all the day they came out to. He's so in. I feel that. Did you,

you went out the night before Thanksgiving? I was going to say, I got to have myself there. Brett and I went out for Blackout Wednesday, Black Wednesday, whatever you call it. Me and him did a little,

little mandate at Mats. We got sat in the main room immediately. Guy with the Golderings was just pumping us with knockout martini. Didn't you see Nick Fuentes or something? No, we'd not see Nick Fuentes.

We saw Cooper Manning in the room with us. And then we went to Dead Rabbit, met up with sauce, and Fulton oil and gas and Tony Hinchcliff walked in. Was he wearing a vest? I think so.

Big vest guy. He walked in. I made eye contact him, pointed out of him, gave him a thumbs up, and that was about it. You gave him, that's what he did?

Yeah, I was like, what else was going to say? I'm like, I'm not the biggest fan of him. I'm not a hater of his. The only thing I could say is like, oh, your roast performance at,

you know, Tom Brady's roast was pretty sick, dude. Like, that would be it. Did he acknowledge you? Yeah. He, He gave me a nod, and then they looked around, and they went to a different place because Who is he with?

I don't know who he was with. I didn't recognize anyone else, just him. What do you think about that bar? Dead Rabbit? Yeah. It's weird that it's on 6th, 36th. I don't like that part, but it, I mean, it was fine. Just very, I think that I like Kelly's better.

I'll say that. I don't think it's a top three Guinness, poor in Austin. No. I don't know what those. Wow. I don't. It's just straight up down. I think it might be top four.

It could be. It could be. I mean, like, I'm not saying it can't get better. I didn't know it was an Irish place. Yeah, it's a New York establishment that I believe this is the only other location, but I might be way off on that. We met some Englishmen that were just Bill's fans for some reason, and they were doing Bill's chance. So Brett was getting in on that, but they were from England. This is on Wednesday? Yeah, it's Wednesday night, yeah. Okay, that's kind of sick.

So that was that. And then Friday Did you go hard? Did you all shut it down? Yeah, we went harder than I should have. Okay. I was pretty hung over the next morning. Then Friday,

Brad and I went tailgating with with sauce and his girlfriend's family. And then we went back to another friend's place, watched the game in a hot tub. It was great. And then it was just kind of chilling and working on projects from that on. He's got another secret project.

it's i'll say it i'll say it it's tree shelf part two it's just a side table that's going to match it i'm almost done with it too i'll probably be finished by the end of this week i can see why he kept that one under wraps enough people do you don't know what's a side table people don't have an appetite for such a thing so it's free standing it's not against the wall yeah yeah so i had left over uh some leftover wood from the branches so i just shaved them down and i already have them like sanded and painted i just need a just two little small things and then a plant stand along with it I'm glad to see how that one turns out Yeah

I'll post it Oh and I also got my table I built that my coffee table I know I talked about retail therapy I don't know if I ever talked about it here My sand art table It feels like you did because I know all about it I know too much about it

Dude look at this thing Isn't this sick? Yeah Yeah dude So it's just a big coffee table That has a little ball bearing in it That just makes a bunch of art Do you, how do you choose what it makes?

There's an app. So there's a lot of pre-made designs. You can apparently make your own, I don't figure that out yet. So you're from the, from your phone, you can choose? Yeah. Can you do like a custo? Yeah. So you could, in theory, not that you would do this, but you could, what's something like

you would draw, like randomly sketch if you were just sitting around doodling? I could probably do a penis if that's what you're asking. I don't know if it's not what I was asking. It might not, it might go in the system. So I don't know if they'll allow that, but I might be able to do a penis. So he has a digital table. I didn't realize that, okay, when you told me about this, I just didn't, I don't know what I was thinking. So I built that. What's your, what's the current design up now?

I think it's a big pot of plants, Monsera leaves. Randy, there's, there's few people like you. There is. And you waited a year for this. I mean, yeah, I contributed to the Kickstarter last November. So it finally came in and I got to do it. Man, if this would be such a hit in my house. and it would absolutely be broken by my kids in about a week.

I brought it up on a retail therapy because they have like a small like tabletop version that's only like nine inches across because this is like three feet across because it's a coffee table. But Will and Sally were talking about we should get this for Fritz and then immediately like, no, he'd probably break it within the first like day. Yeah, this is something that kids would love to break. But it is cool. All right. Well, there you go.

Pretty sick. As for me, let's see, headed back. Uh, northbound 35, uh, up Duncanville way, city of champions. Um, got in, put out some more feelers, just nobody really wanting to get out there and get after it. Um, just disappointing. You know, man, you don't get a lot of action when everybody's, everybody's moved. Everybody's sure you're going to get after it, Dave. It's just tough, man. What does it get after it look like for you? Two beers, home by, 10.30? I've done later. I had some late nights when I was home. Thanksgiving night

went after we did Thanksgiving at my sister's place. Great turkey. Got home. What was a Thursday night game? I can't even remember. It was Bengals? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ravens. Bengles Ravens. Caught the end of that, then I decided to go watch, see what my Mavs were doing. Or maybe that was Friday. Either way, there was one night where I watched way too late of a Mavs game to see, watch them just get absolutely demolished in L.A. But anyway, big highlight, we went to the zoo the day after Thanksgiving, which was interesting. I've never gone to the zoo in cool weather. The zoo always, for me, seems like a spring and summer play. Yeah. But we hit the zoo. And then, And we came back.

We made the early return Saturday. Were the bears hibernating? Didn't see any bears, actually. Yes, because they're hibernating, dude. We didn't see a bear. We probably didn't see the birds either because they probably all migrated south. No, we'll get the south part of the zoo. I'll get to that.

The birds are arguably the most sad part about going to a zoo. They're in cages? Well, they're in, not cages, but like, like, I'm looking at a harpy eagle. I'm like, that thing just wants to find. fucking fly yeah that's sad and i don't know how many of these birds are just being rehabilitated i don't know but it's still like the austin zoo claims like they have a bald eagle there that has one leg for example i don't think it gets around too well i'm all about that but you're right if it's just a healthy eagle that that that that fucker needs to get out there man yeah it was um i'll go and do in

more detail um but yeah we came back yet saturday um had a notion where i was like man uh my duncanville Panthers in the fourth round of the playoffs, I believe, maybe third, but they were playing out in Hutto, out Hutto Way, home of the hippos, Hutto Hippos. Yep. But they were playing Klein Collins, school out of Houston. And I was like, man, we got back at three, a game started at four. Weather was kind of eh, just ended up just not doing it and just followed it via Twitter, which is not a fun way to follow any kind of sporting activity.

but they took the dub like 34-7 game was over in the first quarter they were very very they overmatched this team it was it was not fun for the other team it was just i kind of felt bad it was like 28 oh at one point i was like damn you guys made it all the way here just to get demolished um but anyway and then yesterday very low-key cold we did a roast a pot roast I like that It was nice It was a timely pot roast Oh it's good stew weather this week

It's good stew this week I need to get my pot back from Brett Yeah Oh and all man Just just great Did some tweeting Did some tweeting Had some fun reading some

Responses to tweets And Instagrams It's really funny I had some people text me That like just happened to get served That real like dude this is hilarious They're like I've got some tech friends

who were like reaching out like dude like y'all's i was just reading y'all's comments and i was dying laughing i was like yeah this is this is pretty much been the last couple weeks i'm again i said the guy's hat was on backwards like imagine if i said something terrible about the guy like with the response is my favorite thing was like how many people um were like calling you names calling you gay liberal blah blah blah and then the people who would screenshot pictures of your Instagram and send it to, like, and be like, this guy dresses like this.

And I was like, my brother in Christ, you just screenshot it another man's Instagram just to criticize his fashion. And you had to scroll a while, too, to get there. What are you doing? A tweet of mine from three years ago because I was wearing, I don't even know, oh, I was wearing my, my, uh, Haraches.

We talked about this already from three years ago. And I, I didn't really respond to any of them because I was like, I don't really want to respond to anybody, but like, I was just, thinking, like, dude, every photo you've screenshot it is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is getting a really good fiddle. Like, these are good. These are, these are, these are objectively good photos.

Like, do something, like, zoom in on his feet in an awkward position or something funny. This is just him, like, on Bourbon Street stunning, dude. What do you, why would you pick this? Why would you pick them? Dude, imagine if they got a hold of the egg video. Oh, goodness. They have no clue. You're hopelessly addicted to slonkers.

Yeah, I know. I, I can let them. find that out dude it'd be over they got wind of the some people figured out that you were not uh that you went to texas state for a time yeah six and six going to a ball which is funny because in my tweet i said nothing about like no texas football no or anything of the sort no you didn't no you didn't you got to love them but again jay look did we drop five in a row in the middle of the season we did did did we rally and win our last two to become bowl eligible we did

yeah did we jump into the river as we do after we become bowl eligible yes we did I saw that hitting the TL people are like oh my god this team look at this they're jumping in the river I'm like that's what we do fuck yeah that's what we do there's like that I didn't jump into the river after I graduated that I'll be honest sadly nobody I didn't know anybody who did that that wasn't that may not have been a thing until somewhat recently but I cap and gown and everything that's what they do now yeah it's kind of the thing not everybody but yeah i famously graduated from stan edwards so i definitely did not do that

yeah that would have jumped into ladybird lake and didn't walk either they would have never found you again yeah you would have been the original rip that's right tough unfortunately peru is not bowl eligible i'm sorry man they got spanked well i knew they were going there's always next year with the cats dude hop on with the cats dude hop on with the cats we're keeping our coach i think i think i think i think i'm going to become an old miss guy no the one guy's out of there i thought you're going to be a longhorn guy i am but are they going to be in the playoffs no yeah exactly i'm i'm going to root for old miss in the playoffs that that's a good one to root for this year yeah because of the situation going out they'll have

a lot of people like rooting for them i think me included me included what if i just dress up in all like old miss gear and come into work one day probably like what are you doing like kind of Dwight Shrewd, like a Jim Dwight situation where you just totally cuck his fandom. Do it. Going to wear like a baby blue Jackson Hole shirt or something like that? I mean, look, you could do worse on like cool merch than Ole Miss. I do like their color. The powder blues are up there in college football for me.

You know, if it came down to it, I'd be like all over Ole Miss. as an underdog. He got there. People didn't know where he was going. They're like, oh, my gosh, dude, his wheels are flying off. No, they're not. The wheels are on.

I guess let's just talk. Let's start with Lane.

You'll start with Lane? Yeah, because the 6-7 thing. What does that to do with Lane? There's a video of Lane doing 6-7. It's real cringe. Worse than what I just did. Maybe. Yeah, a lot of people have been holding on to a lot of lane adjacent content.

And now there's no reason to withhold. No. As he has spurned the Ole Miss Rebels and now will be at LSU. So I think everybody in this office was pretty certain about two weeks ago. He was out. It definitely seemed that way. When he met with, I don't know who he met with, but I guess the AD at Ole Miss. And because he was kind of keeping everyone in limbo, like, what's he going to do?

And then they agreed that after the Egg Bowl, he would then announce his intention. And why hold on to that if you knew that you were going to stay at Ole Miss, right? Why not just be like, no, I'm here. I'm staying at Ole Miss. I want to, you know, co-chair, but he didn't do that. So it's like, okay, he's going to go to LSU. Then people were kind of uncertain. There it is.

Cowboys. Yeah, there it is. And now he is off to LSU. And in doing so, he wanted to do it his way. He wanted to do it on his terms, meaning he wanted to keep coaching Ole Miss during the playoffs. And that didn't happen. AD was like, no, you're LSU's next coach. You're not going to coach your playoffs.

So we'll talk like larger coaching stuff here after this. But I'm trying to think if there was like a path, like if there's a universe where that would have worked. And just talking lane, like the lane segment, because there are coaches who are going to be doing that. But obviously, very different circumstances and on a relatively smaller scale. And there's just not. Like, this was never, it was never going to happen. It would be, it would just be too awkward. I think he knew that.

How are you going to be, as a player, like, you're pumped up for a playoff game. You're in the locker room with your coach who's firing you up and talking game playing shit. You're like, this motherfucker's leaving here. To it, to an in-conference rival. To an in-conference rival. This dude's leaving here. He's not going to be our coach. Yeah.

How into this is he? I think he knew that and he's the type of guy who doesn't, can't just own it, his decision. He has to like try to, he wants to kind of put it out there like, well, maybe this could make me look like a more sympathetic figure. It's like, oh, Lane wanted to coach the team, a little bit of a victim play. It's a chicken shit move because he knew. Respect to Ole Miss for being like, no, dude. Like you can't. That's the only move.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. You're out of here. No. I respect that. So he's gone off the whole of his show. shout out to the players for they did win the egg bowl um it's a good team man it's a good team and like not that i thought that that was ever mississippi state is formidable um but and you know with everything going on you could see like it wouldn't be out of this out of the question for them to go

there and uh just shit the bad just be flat yeah like and they weren't they weren't yeah and there also report came out that he demanded that the coach the offensive coached for Ole Miss that Lane wanted to bring to LSU also had to get on a plane with him and head off to Baton Rouge or a different plane. I think there were two planes. And if you didn't get on the plane, then you are not going to coach for me. And I think some coaches did go. I don't know which ones. Charlie Weiss Jr.

Just a fucking mess. Brett was telling us the quarterback's coach, the wide receivers coach. There's at least three. Yeah. I'm not going to pretend to know who they are and, you know, how integral they were to Lane's scheme. But, um, so the fun part is, like, first of all, like, I don't think we need to, like, beat a dead horse and be like, okay, this guy sucks. He did this. This was shitty.

He's an egomaniac, narcissist, all that. Something I do think about when, when this stuff happens is, like, how you go. And he didn't talk to the team before he went before, like, you know, he didn't get a chance to go talk to him. Brett said he had chances to do it, but it was almost like he knew he was going to be able to get out of there without having to face the team. These kids that, like, you've been with

for three, four years, it's very, very weird to go tell them, like, I'm taking a move to, like, this team that you're going to be playing. You know what I mean? In-conference foe, which is insane. So all the receipts that, so Burniverse, as we've become very acquainted

with the Burniverse the last couple years, um she held the last couple weeks they've got a lot of dirty laundry on lane and we don't need to get into a lot of it because it's a lot of it frankly is unproven but there's a lot of screenshots out there and there's a lot of um i alluded to a video that somebody had that i think it was like on his daughter's TikTok um there's stuff coming out now about like the dog juice who like so he's like kind of had this herb street like like PR move it's like I'm a dog guy here's my dog my dog's got her a Twitter account now is it lane tweeting from the account or I assumed it was one of his kids I don't know if it's lane but I assumed it was like maybe his kid his daughter I don't

know but there was a there there's tweets coming out today being like oh yeah by the way the dog isn't going with them because the dog according to people on Twitter they're saying the dog was like basically a rental like the dog like stayed and lived allegedly with the handler. With the

with the trainer. So I don't even know if he's bringing the dog. So is it the trainer's dog or is Elaine's dog that he lets live with the handler? I don't know. Like are they are those different? Like isn't that weird? It's like the dog doesn't live with you. Is he really your dog?

Dog to the, no, that's not your dog. Like, I understand, like, if, well. He's got a, he's got a busy schedule, I understand that. It's not like a bird dog that you keep out at your place, your lease, or your ranch or something. It's like, this is your dog. It has, like, an office in your... Yeah, that's, that's lame and weird. It's very weird.

It's weird to use a dog as a prop. Like, why do you need that? Is your PR that bad to where you need a prop dog? It's very strange. And maybe he'll come out and, like, realize, oh, fuck it, I'll take the dog with me. But it's very... What kind of dog is juice? I think it's just a lab.

Okay. The dog thing. This whole thing's a mess, man. I feel bad for Ole Miss fans. Okay, college football, man, it's the greatest sport on earth because you get videos of Ole Miss fans showing up to the, you know, the private tarmac there. All the shots have barbed wire and the, like, going through them. And there's people just standing at the fence, just cussing them out, giving them the bird.

dude, college football is just the best. Yeah, and like on one hand, it's like, dude, I mean, this guy doesn't seem like a good dude, but on the other, it's like, damn, is this, he is tremendous content. He is. He's good content. Like, and the fact that he's going to LSU, who just fired Brian Kelly, who is also, who is for different reasons tremendous content, it's just, they know how to pick him, dude. they really do he's going to have to he's going to have to produce a winner there and like soon

yeah or is this is going to get ugly i mean he's taking a seven win team he's taken over a seven win team should have been eight for old miss because like he'll he'll likely take some of his top guys with them when i mean guys i mean like players like i think koan lacey or kiwan lacy i'm not sure i say his first name running back for um miss who had a great season I saw a report that he wants to join Kiffin at LSU and that's it sucks for Ole Miss. They elevated Pete Golding, who was their defensive coordinator. He's going to be the head coach moving forward. And like Randy said, I want to see them do well in the playoff.

I don't know how well they're going to do, but. It's insane to me. Because like, like we've said, you found a place. You're in the biggest conference, and you've gotten your team to the playoffs, their best season ever. And now you're just not the coach. And, like, this fan base, who he has to know if even, like, a quarter of what is out there right now is true, he knows. Like, this fan base has been, like, kind of covering for his ass and at least not, like, exposing him. Like, he knows that.

And he knows it's going to come out if he leaves. And he's just a psychopath. Yeah. scummy type stuff is coming out and it's alleged we don't know how true it is but um yeah it could get ugly man because now they have no reason to hold anything back but my favorite tweet through a lot of this was uh what's the uh what's the dude's name uh that's taken over golding yeah it's just i assure you this man doesn't do hot yoga it's from uh at bunkey perkins bunk perkins on twitter yeah uh and yeah it's

Lane has already posted a passage from a motivational book today. Saw that. Saw that. Insane. What are you going to do? And all the people who are like with the transfer portal now and people who are like, oh, this, no loyalty players are jumping ship because they want playing time or more money. You can't really say that anymore.

I mean, coaches will do it at the drop of a hat, too. And they've been able to do it for a long time. So don't blame a player for one and a half to a different opportunity when coaches, leaders of their teams do it just the same. Yeah, that's a, I think that's the right take. I don't know, man. Now I'm like wondering, like, who at LSU might hit the portal. You were asking me about our guy, Caden Durham.

Yeah. Um, it's weird. God, how do they not beat O.U? Should it be a U. It was that, that busted coverage play. Yeah. Oh my God. T man.

Shout out to T man, dude. I needed that LSU win. And they had them, ma'am. Let's open it up to a more full college football discussion. But before we do, shout out to our friends at Rocket Money. It's Monday. It's a good time to log in. Go check out your financial.

You got Eric Morris leaving U.N.T. University of North Texas. Shout out to the mean green. Shout out to T-Man again. Going to Oklahoma State. And you've got two lanes coach. Somerall. Somerall going to Florida. Florida.

And then you have those two teams playing each other in the conference championship. Didn't realize that. And they are both. I mean, there's a good chance the winner that game gets in. It gets in that large bid. with an interim head coach? No, those coach... Oh, they're staying.

Because they're staying to coach through. Really? Morris and... Okay, I guess they handled things a little bit more maturely than Lane Kiffin did. Yeah. Monitor the chat in case somebody wants to tell me I'm a little bit off or way off, but I'm pretty sure that's... That's interesting. Yeah.

That is interesting. It's just a weird dynamic. It is, but like it's, you're getting a... I'm not saying Ole Miss to LSU's a lateral. move but it's much more lateral than going from Tulane to Florida obviously is a major jump up not just in pay but in like stature and yeah resources and all that stuff so that's like a big that's a much bigger deal and more understandable for a coach to take that job and for to have the support of the administration like okay coach throughout the playoffs or if you make the playoff

a coach the conference championship see how far you go yeah and that that's that's the one like if you're Eric Eric Morris you're probably taking your quarterback you're probably taking guys to Oklahoma State. So that is a little bit weird, especially for that fan base. I still don't know much about Eric Morris, but Oklahoma State, you think he could have done better than that?

So that's just a program that feels like it's a member of, it just feels like it's dead in the water. He's Cactus Mafia, too, played at Tech. Oh, did he? I think so, yeah, wide receiver, if I'm not mistaken. Okay. Unless I'm confusing that. Okay.

It's just been a lot. No, I don't know if it is. I mean, you're going to, you're going to the Big 12, but like UNT, Oklahoma State, I don't know what your resources are going to be. That was the whole thing with Gundy. He had, I mean, every, every offseason, I felt like 40 guys were departing for the portal

looking for better opportunities. He just, it just seemed like a program that has no support. And maybe I'm wrong, I don't know. Sorry, I'm just checking my work here. Live on the pod. Okay. Okay. are you right i think i'm right yeah no in the chat is telling you otherwise great it's on them

um yeah north next north texas two lane that's that's another they're both staying throughout the yeah i don't i don't know there was there was no way that those situations are are comparable to to what lane did on just such like a higher scale and like made it all weird drug it out um Montauk, Texas? Yes, I do. Okay. Texas hosted the undefeated A&M Aggies. And so Texas, all right, so Texas is a pretty flawed team, pretty porous offensive line, not much juice on that offense really at all.

And it's been, it's had its struggles this year. The defense has been really good at times and inconsiderate. It's just a flawed team. And so Texas is sitting at 9 and 3, but to get there, they had to beat A&M, who was, like I said, undefeated, ranked number three in the country. And so as a Texas fan, like, you kind of know that your playoff hopes are dashed already going into this game. But you look at what Texas has done against OU, just beat the shit out of OU. handle it Arkansas. I'm talking about the rivals here, like the historic rivals of Texas,

beat Arkansas and then A&M. So you beat all three rivals. And so it's been a fun season in that regard. Like, I mean, to say Texas underachieve this year is obviously accurate. They were preseason number one. But it's all, it was been a fun season when the, the shortcomings of the team became pretty obvious to me. So, but man, that was such a fun game, such I don't know if I've, I haven't that much fun watching a Texas game in a long time. It was just awesome. Running the ball a little bit. Running the ball.

I don't know where the hell that came from. What's his name? Trey Wisner showed up against OU. De Soto's, Trey Wisner. Is he DeSoto? Dude, he, yeah, he shows up against the rivals. He's done, he had like 420 yards rushing going into this game and then rush. I forgot what his total was at the end of it, but he just went off.

No, Anthony Hill. No, Anthony Hill. The rest of the team just stepped up, man. The defense stepped up, two interceptions. Marcel Reed, who has played Texas twice now, has not thrown a touchdown pass against Texas yet. Just all the shit talk going into the game. I mean, not OU, A&M was over just so confident. I saw tons of booty chatter on Twitter, just talking so much shit.

It was just fond, man. I really, really enjoyed that. And it keeps Texas A&M out of the conference championship. championship game, which is an added bonus. DKR looked like it was rocking, dude. Yeah, it was. All reports is it's like the loudest it's ever been. It's, I mean, on TV, it looked pretty insane.

I'm not sure when the last time, what was the last massive game there? Was it the Georgia game? Georgia last year. And I was at that game. It was rocking. I'd imagine this one was probably louder. Yeah, tailgating was packed. There was so many people.

It was great. How was a tailgate scene? It was good. I mean, we only went to like one. family tailgate. So, like, I wanted to kind of go walk through the corporate ones just because they were bumping music and there was a bunch of people in there. I'm like, I kind of want to go get a coozy. You're going to go grind your chinos on somebody? Yeah. Arch had an okay game. He had a couple of, a couple of misses. The only touchdown pass of the game was probably like his second

worst pass of the game. Honestly, he was just a duck. But on the run? Yeah, Wingo made a good play on it. Sneaky, like great catch. Had a good, yeah. He missed that one. Like, that's one where you're like, oh no. Yeah, Texas was down, what, 10-3 at halftime and then just fucking turned it on, man, and played pretty lights out in the second half. And the two interceptions late sealed it. But it was just so much fun, man. I loved it.

Yeah. My A&M peeps, my connects there were very, they were not optimistic. They were pretty worried. I think it's just because they're like, man, this is all setting up to. like they were like even if we lose it's fine but it's like man this is just it's too good to be true we're not going to go run the table and beat texas yeah i think they kind of knew they were due for like a little bit of a let they they were definitely nervous going into this game as as good as a and m has looked and as inconsistent as texas has looked they knew that there's a good chance

this wasn't going to go their way i don't know what to think of texas at this point because they have three top ten wins right oh u van derbilt a and m and that's more than anyone else in the country, which is impressive. Then again, they lost to Florida, which is a bad team. No, I mean, that's the one you're going to think about. They lost to Georgia by 25 points, which is really ugly. They were on the ropes against Kentucky and against Mississippi State, and that's not good at all. And so it's a team that, like, can lose to anybody, but can absolutely, like, beat anybody at the same time. From, like, an objective viewers, like, what I would love to see in the playoff, I would love to see Texas in the playoff.

I would like to see that team. Just A, like, okay, well, like selfishly, yeah, because it's just great content and stuff. But B, like, for me wanting to watch, like what teams I want to see, like, dude, I want to see that team because their defense is still really, really good. People were worried about the defense a little bit. And honestly, when I saw that Anthony Hill wasn't playing,

and the safety I knew was out the first half, what's his name? Who's four? Oh, Jolani McDonald. Dude, he's got a four. fucking called out. I know. He's, I know, he, he does. He's an NFL guy. Like, that dude's fucking good. Like, he's everywhere, but like, he was leaning into it, like, the bad guy role. And I was like, dude, you're, it was third and 21, third and 21. And he, he commits a face mask penalty. And then he's, you see him, like, pumping up the crowd. Yeah, I was like,

man, that, that was a big fucking play. You might have just cost him the game. That was a huge mistake at that point in the game. And so, so go ahead. No, no, no, go ahead. Like, Texas is probably not going to make the playoff. I think the odds are definitely stacked against them. And I don't know. Like I said, it's a team that can beat anyone on any given day. It's a team that can lose to anyone at any given day. So I don't know if they'd make a playoff run.

They probably wouldn't. But they could have made some noise. Yeah, a team that has like an elite defense always has a chance, right? Yeah. If they were able to run the ball like that. They can run the ball, but that's been where they're really inconsistent. The defensive line is just, it's not good at all. That Florida game, man.

That's going to be the one they... So you get Sark lobbying after the game, which seemed like he was almost reading from a script, like he'd been rehearsing it. A disservice to college football. He's getting some heat for that comment, but I think what he meant by that is like... So Texas scheduled Ohio State,

which is an out-of-conference marquee matchup week one of the season, which is a lot of fun for everyone. And so if the playoff committee keeps Texas out, it's because, I mean, if that game's not scheduled, right, we're looking at a 10-and-2 team, if they played some directional school from wherever, Texas wins that game, week one, looking at 10-and-2. The disservice comment, I think what he's saying is, like, you're going to de-incentivize, if that's even a word, programs to schedule these really fun, like, big marquee. matchups when they don't have to, which makes a lot of sense because they would be, they would, at 10 and 2, Texas, would 100% be in the playoffs. And so, I don't know, it's, I, there's an, I see a valid argument for Texas being in the playoff, and I see a valid argument for Texas not being in the playoff.

When you lose to a Florida team that everyone else beat, it's like, all right, that's where you fucked up. And that's not untrue. Like, that is a major fuck up and you win that game you're in. but also the Ohio State game they didn't have to play and they chose to and now they're going to get punished for that.

So both arguments make sense. I get it. Yeah. I'm not too torn up about Texas being left out of the playoff, which I think is probably going to happen. Mostly because I just don't think this team has it.

They're not going to make a run. They're not going to beat Ohio State. They're not going to beat Georgia. They're not going to beat probably Oregon, some of these other really good teams. Yeah. and you made it the last couple years so it's like

I hope everybody appreciates Quinn now a little bit more haven't heard shit about him I thought he was I thought he was I thought he'd be the starter by now in Miami hasn't worked out like that no

yeah other notes on college football I want to give a shout to Kalin DeBore I'm not sure how much of that Bama game you watched but like I got real dicey yeah and him going for it uh was so sick i i fucking love that um because he would have been getting absolutely just destroyed right now had that not by that oh god by that fan base and that media

oh my god um but he went for it instead of kicking um and they did it poor auburn um that was a fun game how average john mottier is by the way the dudes is not he's not good But I'm tired of people pretending he's just this awesome college quarterback. I don't think he's got very many people riding for him at this point. Dude, he was, I saw, it was earlier in the season, obviously. Because, dude, there was a time where you're like, you could see it and you're like, oh shit, this is Baker Mayfield 2.0. But he never put up numbers like that, though.

He went for like 180 and two touchdowns, but like I had a really impressive fourth quarter drive, like, oh, this dude's fucking got it. And he's like, he's just an average, he's just a guy. Yeah, I don't know. how much that thumb is still bothering him, but like some of the throws he had were egregious. His interceptions were bad. He plays like a fun style of football because he scrambles around.

He's pretty athletic. He's got the sidearm delivery. You see somebody like roll out of the pocket. Yeah. And it's like, this dude's fucking got it. But he just doesn't. Yeah.

That's going to be, that'll be interesting team. Their offense is really bad. Their defense is really, really good. Defense is good. I thought LSU, I thought LSU moved the ball okay on them for a time. How does that change the dynamic?

OU loses that game. They're left out of the playoff. They're out of the play. I don't know if that means Texas hopsom and is in the playoff, but OU would definitely not be in at that point. Maybe we'll have, I think we're going to try to have KJ on Thursday and we'll ask him about his ponies.

But I don't know how much of that game you caught. So I tuned it over once they cut it to one score game. All SMU has to do is win. They get in the conference championship. got a good chance of getting back in and now you got Duke in Virginia you got seven and five Duke

potentially they had a lot of people mad that that team could win that doesn't mean that they're in the playoff for the record if Duke wins that game right because they

that would be terrible hilarious Herb Street was incensed dude because I think I think Herb Street watching him as he found out about that that was going on that SMU is going to lose that game

He was like, we can't. He's like, what are we doing? Because I think he thought that that meant Duke was in. Hypothetically, had they won the ACC. Are you sure they wouldn't be? No. The committee can, if there's a higher ranked at large, I think. They don't have to take a conference winner.

Okay. Because if Duke wins that, they're not going to be like, what would they end up being? Would they even be like a top 20 team? Did you see the committee listed four bullet points of like criteria from, which they choose teams and the last one was and this is like the florida state rule says if if a team like recently lost a coach or an influential player from the team that makes that would like you know hinder their chances of success in the playoffs that's a reason to keep them out which is the florida state rule from a couple years ago when they went undefeated it got kept out yeah brett

i think brett was right because i we were talking about that a little bit in a group chat and like a two-loss old miss team losing lane kiffin like what does that mean right like what does that right that might keep them out honestly but that doesn't matter anymore i i honestly i kind of hate that i definitely hate that rule for a coach leaving for a coach leaving that's that's fucked because that that is right you're just punishing these these kids it's still it's still crazy the florida state and of course it wasn't a it was a smaller playoff format it was only four teams at that point, but still an undefeated Florida State

because they lost their quarterback. Yeah. That's tough. Yeah, that would be pretty egregious. Yeah, got tech, BYU. BYU might get left out. It's a weird deal.

Really? Yeah, that's like the big controversy now. One lost BYU. Got to play tech, probably not. don't think they're going to be tech um anywhere oh that's fun you know what else is fun having a fit bod oh yeah true story i went home over the weekend my parents place my dad's got like two 20 pound dumbbells in the garage it's all i had had to get a pump in friday morning i was just i needed the vibes i needed to get it going fired up fit bod got me a little custom workout a little 25 30 minute workout

That's F-I-T-B-O-D-M-E-S-E-S-E-S-E. Anything else on college football I don't think so well uh we'll know more when the uh the playoffs are announced which I guess will be next Tuesday next no next no next sat Sunday I think okay yeah because we have conference championships this weekend and then I think the next day this when the decisions are made so I'm not college football ball just say duh bears fucking bears dude

by the way keep winning nine and three Keep winning. Cowboys. Cowboys are going to be a really good team that misses the playoffs, but it's been fun. Got Detroit Thursday. Showing lots of life. Hey, it's really fun to have like a somewhat meaningful game on Thanksgiving. That's like the bummer of it when they're already out of it and Thanksgiving, like you're just watching this shit per team. You're like, I don't care. It's fun. And you beat the Chiefs. That's always fun. Um, back to back, uh, games beating the, uh, Super Bowl contenders from last year. Chiefs Eagle? Yeah. Yeah.

I don't know what's going on with Philadelphia. This is like they're yearly, like, are they going to fully meltdown or not? Um, they've dropped two in a row. Offense is struggling. It's really bad. It's really weird. It's like the more they get A.J. Brown the ball, the less, it's just odd, just very odd. Sequin doesn't look gray.

Uh, I'll talk zoo real quick. All right. I alluded to going to the zoo earlier, went to the Dallas Zoo, went Friday morning. First of all, the zoo does the thing, which you hate. And, like, I was buying tickets on my phone the night before, and there's, like, all these upgrades you can add. So you can pay extra for the Dino experience, the Dinosaur experience. They have dinosaurs? So I posted a gram at D.C. Rough on Instagram.

It was a story. It's gone now. Maybe I'll do a larger one. They've got a cool animatronic, like, little walkthrough area that's got, like, pretty dope dinosaurs that move and make noise. And it's very impressive. Very cool. Very impressive.

If you're bringing her kid or you just are going there, you're going to get all high, get all fucked up on some mushrooms or something, go do it. Go do the dinosaur thing. It's worth it. It's like five bucks more under ticket. But they also have, like, a heightened experience thing you can do. And I was like, man, I haven't, I don't know what this means. I haven't been to the zoo in a long, long time, but I'm bringing my kids.

And I don't want to get there. And he doesn't have access to something. Turns out all that we saw, first of all, I paid for the dinosaur thing and I paid for like the elevated pass. I could have just gotten the dinosaur experience with the elevated pass. And they don't really tell you that. That's kind of fucked up. So you double.

I double. Yeah, yeah. And then also, this may have been the highlight of the zoo trip for, for my oldest. There's a carousel when you walk in. Oh, hell yeah. Oh, yeah. And you get access to that. And Rhodes wanted to ride that, like, the whole time.

Get in there, go to the Sahara exhibit, saw a cheetah. I was telling you earlier. Big dog. This cheetah at the Dallas Zoo is not to be trifled with. Okay. I'm telling you, dude. This cheetah, you would see it and you'd be like, okay. This is not some, like, scrawny ass.

This thing's eating good. This thing is eating real good. When I finally get my cage match against the Cheetah, I'll make sure to choose a different one. Elephants were a hit. The giraffe, both giraffes, we missed the feeding time, but had the kids right there. They got to see a giraffe, excited about that. Saw the lions. Got to see a trainer working with the lions doing like the stuff or, you know, they've got it jumping up, putting its big paws on the fence.

That was cool. I mentioned earlier There's a lot about the zoo You kind of feel weird about You're like, okay Ethics started creeping in And then you see the birds Like the big birds

I mentioned the harpy eagle There's a condor There's owls And you're just like dude These things They want to be flying around And like there's even like a part of me Like they briefly thought

What if they let them out? I'm like, no they don't You don't ass They're not coming back. That harpy eagle was being an absolute menace. Zoos are kind of fucked up. Yeah. Kids love them, but they're kind of fucked up.

Yeah, it's like I want them to go to appreciate animals and stuff. And we saw the guerrillas got to be right up. Like, guerrilla had its back to us. What's that documentary about Shamu that they did? Blackfish. Blackfish. Yeah. Surprise there's not like a zoo equivalent.

It has to me. I always wondered, though, too. Because, of course, you know, sanctuaries are, you know, little. safer and whatnot. But I feel like maybe some of these animals are having better life than they would in the wild. Like, they're pretty safe. They don't have to fight, you know, hunt their food. So they eat really well, which is great.

They're eating good, Randy. But are they living like they should? Yeah, they're not like hunting as a part of what they do, you know? Maybe they just do simulated hunts for like the tigers and stuff. The T-Rex doesn't want to be fed. The T-Rex wants to hunt. That's right. But really, I mean, a lion, a lion.

a lioness she needs to get out there and fucking run some antelope down there's a lioness in there that was badass yeah dude she was so hardcore looking so cool the big cats that's my favorite part at the zoo yeah a jag saw tiger love a jag saw a smaller jag variation that was just it had like the cool little obstacle course looking thing with like the logs up in the air that it can walk on this jag was i don't know what type of jag this was but it was like A little bit bigger, but much thicker than a bobcat. And this thing was like, oh, this thing's sick. The pit bulls of the cat family.

Yeah, that's what it felt like. All in all, Dallas Zoo's cool. It's a good, it's a good zoo. We'll hit the Fort Worth Zoo next time. That's the one, that was the big growing up. It was like, oh, the Dallas Zoo's not as good as the Fort Worth Zoo. And then the Dallas Zoo got a little bit better. And now I think they're kind of neck and neck.

But I think you still hear better things about the Fort Worth Zoo. We'll go. see. People forget that. I went to the zoo Central Park when we were in their last year. How was it? It was fine. It was good. It was kind of small, but I mean, it was fun to walk around. Yeah, I thought

I don't know. I think I was more excited about seeing some of this stuff than my kids. Which is kind of, I was like, can you please like this as much as me? And look at this thing. Look at this. I was like, I told Rose like multiple times, like, you don't know you'll probably never be this close to a gorilla like there's a fucking male gorilla sitting right here with this back to you he might just fucking start flinging shit at any moment oh yeah

kids man kids uh randall how you feel about stranger things um you've watched all four i've only watched the first two dillans uh got about 40 episodes to walk yeah i am kind of lukewarm on this season so far i like i are originally watched it and thought, you know, it was good, it was fine. Now I'm kind of going back a little bit like it's more fine than good. One, I'm one of the few people it seems like, because everyone bitched last year or two years ago about the run times. I liked the long run times. I thought more content was better. So all these ones, the see, I'm trying to do this as much without the spoilers, everyone. But like episode four, the last one, so it was only four episodes where

I think last time they did seven and, I think they did six and three is how they do it. So I think they're doing four and four this time. The last episode was an hour and 20, like seven minutes. And that was the longest one. All the rest of them were right around an hour, which is like, yeah, I mean, it's longer than a lot of other shows. But season four was just all of them were like over an hour and 20. So I don't know. I felt like there was less content.

And it felt like it was more getting rushed. And like they were more explaining everything that was happening than actually showing and having like action go on. it was like a lot of like exposition like oh this is what we've been doing and this is what we're going to do today like wait no i have an idea so let's do this idea and like it was so i don't know i've enjoyed it so far i'm going to continue but i like season four much better i'm probably about to have a dumb guy take i've had this take since last season i feel like they could probably cut a couple characters there's a little bit there's there's a there's a few too many i don't know if i need jonathan buyers anymore yeah there's there's some storyline character storylines there

are going to come to a head and i hope they're they're good like clearly there's like a whole which we saw at the end of season four jonathan and uh steve going after nancy like steve isn't clearly over nancy and like you know jonathan's with nancy so that's gonna probably that's a big thing happening this season um and episode one you see l doing this training montage and the most just blatant product placement of Gatorade ever I've ever seen. It kind of took me out of the scene. We talked about it earlier in the office. I didn't even notice it.

And then when you brought it up this morning, I kind of, I remembered, oh, I remember thinking, like, yeah, that did look cool. So it's just a glass Gatorade bottle? Yeah. Are we doing glass Gatorade now? The original ones. I saw it and I texted sauce. I'm like, I guarantee you that they are going to re-release these in glass bottles. And I think they announced it today that they're doing a limit time release.

But we can't get Vortex bottles from Miller Light. I guess not. Parks thinks a major character is going to die. I think so, too. They have to. I mean, I would even say maybe a couple, but definitely at least one. But, you know, there was some twists and turns that I did enjoy. See, the ending of season four was kind of cool.

It was very much like a Darth Vader in Rogue One, if anyone knows that scene. Very much, like, kind of like that. It was like, okay, cool. Things are happening. We don't want to give it away in case you watch it But you'll know Vecna He doesn't know Vecna, does he? You don't even know Vecna?

I don't know Vecna You don't know Vecna? You don't know Henry? No So Dude, Maybe this changes Nancy's dad

So Not giving too much away Like there's a major thing that happens In the second episode with her parents Nobody fucking cares about her dad No like what what was he do i am i wrong is he a bad guy he's just constantly he's an aloof dad he's a loof dad he's just constantly like there and like clearly doesn't care about his family or care

like watch anything he's just hitting fucking high draws out in the backyard him and his uh wife get an argument at one time and he just goes well she's like clearly drinking wine he's like is that number one or are we ready on the number two i was like okay this guy's it but dude it's like nobody cares about him no he's very a loo he always has been that's been like his character thing it's been funny but like him just dropping that line

I'm like oh okay this guy this guy's ready to fight with the argument yeah he really did well I'll probably finish that tonight I finished chair company I'm officially done with that season of chair company very very interested

to hear you finish it see what you think yeah I'll let you know soon I'll just tell you you're gonna at the end of it you're going to be like okay that's that's tim robinson man but that's what he does I'm also it's you never you never know his next move I haven't watched chair come down thinking about stranger things too I don't like there release times black Wednesday and

Christmas day like I was able to watch all of it Thursday but like I'm probably not going to get to watch Stranger Things until like January. So I'm going to be with, like, friends and families. I don't, I don't like that they like... You can't have to isolate yourself from my friends and family, dude. I don't. It's going to be four episodes. It's going to be the finale.

Like, how am I supposed to stay away from spoilers that much? I don't like that. But hopefully they bring it home, but as of right now, it's been a little too camping. It's up in the air for Randy. Yeah. Got it. All right.
