All right, we're back. Circling Back podcast. Thursday morning. My name is Dave. I'm very excited to be here. Got a special guest who I'll get to momentarily. But right now, it's Randall Trimbaki. He's going to produce.

Hi, Dave. Hi. I got some comments later today. Everyone's favorite segment. Okay. A tease. Yeah. You get some good ones?

We got some good ones. Proud of you for sticking to it. I enjoy hearing the comments. I've gone out of my way to not read them. I used to read them immediately, like after the show, just because I'm like, please say something. Please say I'm funny. Please say I look better than I used to.

You do, Dave. You look much better. You look like a piece of shit. Yeah, well, you're a cutie patootie. Thank you. Now I'm waiting for you. So, very cool. Dylan Shivery.

out bad case of explosive diarrhea it's rea time yeah no he's Dylan's uh dillin's tending to a matter at home in his bathroom no I'm kidding

that's not it no Dylan had something come up he asked if we were gonna have KJ on anyway as I announced yesterday and he's like hey do you mind doing the show just KJ and I was like yeah yeah I mean no I don't mind I actually I'll I look forward to

mix it up with you him sometimes, you know, just, just me and KJ and Randy over there in the in the cut corner. Just mixing it up. I'm not in the cuck corner. Just a couple DFW guys. What? I'm not, I'm sure. I'm in the cuck corner.

No, you're not. I meant like metaphorically. KJ, do you think I'm in the cut corner? I don't know. Do you want to be in the cut corner, Randy? No. Crank corner. Cause I'll put you in the corner.

No. You want to be in the corner. It's, I don't like, I don't like this at all. KJ. You can watch. KJ. Ellis, who just,

he looks like he just got a great night's sleep. His eyes aren't puffy at all. What's going on? Looks like he might be on the sideline holding the clipboard with that white cap. Oh, man. So do you keep it in the fridge? It's cold as fuck in a basement, um,

eight months out of the year. So it's supposed to be refrigerated. But I'd venture to say keeping it like, a good 65 degree room consistently. It's a good option. I'm of course talking about KJ's ID puffer tool that I caught them using. And it seems to be working. And I might need to look into having one of those here. If I'm beating in every way, I need a haircut, need to shave. I was like, okay, at least I can push back the bags a little bit. How about that? I'm here for the people, you know, and I'm a little sad that Dylan boycotted

the me day. But hey, happy pride to Dylan. I hope. that he has extra time to celebrate and enjoy, uh, enjoy his day. Hey, um, I think the reason Dylan's out, he, uh,

he lost all his money on an SMU token. He got, he got rugged. I was really, uh, there's never been a moment. Actually, I take that back.

There's several moments where I find myself in an indefensible position. Um, some of which include the Jaguars hiring and, uh, subsequent firing of Urban Meyer, very turbulent, turbulent time in the group text, mostly just for me and emotionally. There probably been others, but when SMU announced yesterday that they were releasing Mustang coin, which is a, as you can guess, a crypto property that you can invest in or contribute

to, or I don't know, throw money into a black hole to benefit student, athletes at SMU. And to what end? What's your return? I don't know. Expect none. It's a really good idea five years ago, though. It's,

I'll try to keep this between the lines. It's the worst fucking idea I've seen of any school ever. And it's one of those things that you don't necessarily want to be like we were first. And that's what I think they're trying to do. It seems unbecoming of SMU. SMU is kind of known as a school that doesn't have problems.

Like they've got a very, very well off alumni base, as you can tell. And I mean, this guy's got a basement. He's got an eye puffer thing. It seems like if you had to, he's got an eye puffer, it keeps it right there. If you had to guess like, okay, Texas State or SMU, who launched the, who launched a coin to benefit their team, their NIL, most people would be like, oh, that's that's, that's, so San Marcos, but no. Well, kitty coin, I'd invest in kitty coin again. Kitty coin.

Eat them up coin. How about that? You think that would be common? Cat coin. Cat coin. Okay. Yeah, it was right there in front of me. I assumed it was taken.

But yeah, this happened. I don't want to make it political. I've got a former coworker who was recently hired to be the chief. Maha officer for a company that you would not necessarily equate to anything healthy. We'll just say burger chain, burger brand, if you will. Hungly. Like along the lines of steak shake, but one you're not going to consider that often. Certainly not to have like a chief Maha officer.

But he recently posted about at Bitcoin conference, like supporting very proudly and loudly. If all of our customers use Bitcoin, we'd say, save X amount of money. So like to have this follow, I'm like, okay, wait, is there about to be this like big Bitcoin push that I was unaware of? Because Peter Thiel's cooking if so. It's actually lost a significant amount of market cap. But I'm sensing it in the last 24 hours, I believe. Exactly. It's a good time to invest. Yeah, dude. Now is the time. Now for me, though, I wait. I bought when it was like 120 or whatever. Hell yeah. I don't buy dips. There's too much of it. Yeah.

so to speak. Hey, we recorded, we don't and I did record, uh, listener voicemails. And that'll be dropping tomorrow on Patreon. It's been a great week for Patreon because I think listener voicemails were great. Cole calls were exceptional. I think every, every, I've had people texting me to say, dude,

Weddings, concerts, outdoor festivals, work events, whatever.

I was going to wear mine today, but it's raining out. And I've got those smooth ostrich. I didn't want to get them wet. So I didn't wear them. I had to protect them because they're my favorite. Dylan just got the cart rights. It's an all-black boot. He can wear it with a suit to a formal event.

Or it could just wear it out to the bibliotheca if he's going to check out a book. You know what I mean? He can do that. Ready for anything boots for your weekend adventures.

You want to talk Legos first? What do you want to to start kj i don't know what really what's catching your attention uh lego i think i think it's a good story sorry if that was hot that popped a little bit you're good um i think it's a good story and it gives me the opportunity to quickly lead into it by asking to what extent are your two young

lads into legoes or are they just constant karaoke or karaoke years oh god yeah that video generated a lot of buzz can i just say whoever gave us that gift gave my kid that gift the little tiny easy to use karaoke machine you you meant well and the kids like love it obviously what are you doing why are you doing this to me might have been my biggest social media hey look at this and laugh a moment of the weekend so shouts to the missus thank you great great little great share i mean like it's a it's a cube and it has a speaker and like my my my My two and a half year old knows how to turn it on and off, which that's how easy it is to use. And it has two chew microphones for karaoke. So, yeah, so you can not just one, you can have a duet of a five and a half and a two and a half year old. Just making up songs as they go. Yeah, I've definitely, either my mom or I have given my nieces.

Like, they're the microphones to have the speakers in them already. We've got one of those too. So, but back in our day, we had to have the plastic. with the spring in it. Yeah. AJ knows what I'm talking about. I know that one well. We didn't have all this, this technology.

There was one technology and stuff. There was one you could get in like a McDonald's Happy Meal back in the day. It was kind of goaded. That's like a real 90, 90s kid, ball and over play. But yeah, this one, the one that has the speaker in it has more like effects that's more like, I can do demonic sounds too, which is like you're just like walking around. Like, what am I doing? What is it?

Shouldn't he be reading or like draw? I don't know. Like do something else. I love that. Anyway, this is about a Lego scandal. Yeah, my bad.

My bad. No, no. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. We have Legos.

I feel like right when we started really getting into Legos, Rhodes, my five-year-old, Sammy came along and is small and young enough to where he will put them in his mouth. So we had to kind of. hold off on the Legos, which was a bummer because I think Legos are super tight. I grew up with Legos as a lot of kids did. I wanted Rhodes to be into it.

And he was, but yeah, we're sticking more with the bigger blocks right now. The Duplos? The Duplos, yeah, yeah. Shout out to their family. I know it's not Diplo, whatever. Dave Geda. Have you have you tried to purchase? Legos of any like significance lately.

Because I think that's important to understand about the existence of this story. So because, uh, I was ignorant to realize that like, I'll see him at Costco from time to time. Yeah. That looks dope. But I'm not going to buy it, but it looks dope. I'll glance at the price. I'm like, hmm, maybe it's just this fancy set of flowers or Pikachu that are $200 sets. Nah, bra.

Most of them are like start at 15. 60 and go up. Yeah. Yeah. I got the one up here. Like the, the goat of the Star Wars Lego sets is the Millennium Falcon, maybe even the Death Star, but Millennium Falcon.

Death Star, yeah. But the Millennium Falcon is 84949. So it's almost $1,000 by itself. That's, I don't even know what to say. I can walk into a house in Midlothian, Texas, uh, or man laws. live and point you to both of those structures that stay on constant display, along with like several other like sets. But they bought them when they first came out.

I don't know if we've had legflation here. Brickflation's probably better to go with over the years. So I don't know if like when they were purchasing it was this like a big, big deal. I just know my father-in-law is an engineer and like that's been his. You know, hey, we're going to buy dad for Christmas for the last 15 years. It's been a big Lego set. Yeah, yeah. And I did just look it up. The Dust Star is $999. So we're talking about if you have both of those, that's almost 2K right there of Legos.

So there's a lawsuit. There's a, there's a scandal even. Some are saying in the Lego world. Long story short, and I'm going to, I'm going to give you a little TLDR. Guy and his dad, been purchasing Star Wars Lego sets since like the year 2000. They have a close. collection worth over 200K. Which we now know is pretty easy to get to, I guess. Yeah, it makes a lot more sense knowing that now. 20 items. Yeah, no joke. Okay. In late 2023, the family can sign the collection to Brickson Mini Figs store in Salem, Oregon.

Are you familiar with this store? We had one open kind of by us, Dave. It's in that area where, like, Coles is, of course, Showl at Coles. but I just know that is, is it like an official reseller, does it say? Yeah. So they had this agreement. A lot of the store was going to sell individual sets while the family retained ownership of all unsold items and received a 35% commission on sales. It's a pretty good deal for the family.

The agreement came under dispute after the franchise ownership changed in 2024 with the company describing the consignment deal as, quote, unauthorized. The family alleged that most of their collection had gone missing. insert YouTuber Reckless Ben Reckless Ben Yeah Not Crazy Eddie KJ

Not crazy Picked up the story in March of 2026 got arrested twice in Utah While trying to confront the new owners Hell yeah I didn't even know there was arrests Turn the dispute I didn't realize he went from Oregon to Utah Yeah that's where I got thrown off that I thought he lived in Utah so okay

This is real poster shit. Hell yeah. This is real streamers shit right here. So he just said, you know what? I'm going to make this about me. But he did raise awareness because we probably aren't talking about this unless this happened. So he's now in this viral feud with over 2 million views and a GoFundMe that's over like 130,000. Because the dad, if I'm not, correct me if I'm incorrect here, Randy, the dad became ill.

The original owner of the Legos. I believe so. I think I read that like, yeah, the original owner was. going through some health stuff. Okay. So now you have cease and desists being sent to Patreon to try to get Reckless Ben D Platform. You have Jack Conti who did a post about this yesterday. Because that's how I first heard about the story.

I was like, why is Jack Conte posting about Legos? And long story short, there's a lawsuit. And we don't know where the Legos are. Where are the Legos? do the Batman voice Where are the Legos? Where are they? Yeah.

I'm not wearing hockey pads. You turned into Tim Robinson. I don't know why. I lost a good one going. I lost breath at the end there. So anyway, all over some Legos. And this is funny because all over Austin, not all over.

There's like two locations in South Austin I drive by that have these cheap handmade signs at stoplights that say, we buy used Legos and it has a phone number. And I'm always driving by and I swear to God, I always think like, why? And now I know. Mm-hmm. They're going to flip them.

They're going to flip them Legos. See? Flipping bricks. That's right. So there you go. I don't know if this is an indictment on just general economy. Like you've got four in Austin. I'm seeing now.

Round Rock, domain, B Cave, and then the one Randy mentioned. Um, the infrastructure for this place, Randy asked earlier, is this an official reseller? Absolutely. Yes. The original authorized reseller of Legos in fact. Uh, I can't even count how many locations. I'm sure it says here in the summary somewhere, but easily over 200 on their website. I mean, there's five in Wisconsin alone.

Um, so like that's, that's ridiculous. Um, so bricks and men figs, again, huge operation. however, they're franchised out. So I became aware of this story just by perusing Madison Reddit this morning. And they were kind of, and Madison Redd is like a, probably a lot like Austin Reddit, where people are eager to like rally behind a cause, typically taking, you know, the progressive side of said cause. And the battle was like, well, this is a franchise.

These people are great people. However, the organization does heinous things. Go watch the clip. Absolutely don't. there. And it just evolves within seven messages of like, fuck this place, fuck this brand. I'm like, whoa, I wasn't going to go by, but maybe I was going to

consider going dropping some shit off there at some point in time. But the fire brand is real. Shows to Jack Conte. I hadn't thought about his name since like true pandemic days of like leading a lot of the Patreon push. I don't know, man.

Having observed and been involved in like the Pokemon side of. of this. There's not a central, like, resale platform to hate like this. People just hate the grunt scalpers on the streets who, like, go buy the product and then force it into these places. So it's a different element. Whereas, like, with this, like, you've got one target. It's not going to go well for this brand. And they're big. So I don't know how this goes away until they make it right. Like, that's got to be the quick end of this. And it doesn't seem like that's the direction they're going. Yeah. It feels like, it feels like Lego should just swoop in and be the good

guys here. It's like two, I mean, we're talking like 150, 200,000. Like, it's not crazy money. You know what I mean? It's like, for that, for that, for Lego. It's like, we've seen what Legos are going for now. Like, make it right. I don't know. I mean, I don't know the whole story with this guy's illness. And I don't really, I don't know like the, I don't know like the, know how that's relevant though like either way like right right i know it's i know it's relevant for like the urgency and it brings in the empathy of the reader it's an empathy in the audience and that's the goal like i get that part but i'm saying like the the decision should still be made on like the brand preservation fact of like okay this got to this point bring in the wolf

fuck off to this franchisor and move on yes i think a part of this too is this reckless bang guy that was doing the investigation, the YouTube investigation. It seemed like he started getting harassed by the local police department too. And that's like a whole other part of this. It's like even outside of just the bricks and mini figs, like the local police department. And then they were like calling police department. They're corrupt. And maybe it's all this big like big Lego, big Lego or big like part of like the new franchise people are in caho with the police.

And so there's a lot of like now conspiracy and corruption stuff going out with this story. as well. It's just that's Utah. Like it's a wicked twisted road in Utah when you get mixed up with the police. I think we all understand that. Um, and I don't think that you should expect differently. It's been that way for years. Yeah. I don't know. And you have to wonder like at what point is this like big enough and crazy enough and involve so many powerful people that you have to wonder if like the Ilegonati is involved. Oh, that's true. It could have a happy ending too because like traditionally if you build it they will come okay okay if we were smart enough and or like i don't know on a nationally adored show we could write these on cards and make the other person read it

instead of like dribbling the ball to ourselves and backing it you know tossing off the backboard to score each time but i wonder if there's a lego field of dream suck do my kids just be like Lego my ego. Okay. Okay. All right. No, seriously, they do love egos. On the, on the, having not read the entire fact pattern, I don't know really, I don't really, as you can tell.

I don't, all I know is like an AI overview of this story. Family doesn't really matter, in my opinion, without knowing Utah law. Signed an agreement with who they thought was an authorized agent on behalf of, uh, minifig, okay, relied reasonably from what I can tell on that, gave over the collection, thought they were entitled to that. So I don't think it should matter that the franchise changes over and then the new owners are saying, uh, yeah, we didn't, we didn't agree to this. It doesn't matter. Yeah. It doesn't matter. Because how this happened was that the original franchise owner was going to move out of the country. So I said, well, I'm not not going to be able to run

this franchise anymore told like corporate that and then new ownership came through. I think originally they said everything would be like taking care of like yeah, the agreement would stay. But the original owner was like, well, they haven't got paid for anything yet too. And then they said like, you're out the door, don't worry about it. And then like, so that was part of it too. So the original franchise owner was on the family side too. And like corporate wasn't answering calls. And it was, it was a big, it's a big deal. We're talking about it. Okay. Okay. Yeah. And Nike, where are they headquartered? Is this in Laguna Beach or? Ligona Beach. Dylan would hate this.

Legona Beach. That's also my leading thought. I'm like, we might as well have like broken down 10 years of warp tour bands. And he would have been equally thrilled with what he missed. I'll tell you this. One thing he's definitely thrilled with, this podcast is brought to you by Squarespace.

Hunter Biden's on X, the everything app. No, thanks for clarifying. I'm not making fun of a man who has struggled with substances. That's not cool. Agreed. I will say he's getting a lot of love for being a people are saying this guy's already an all-time poster.

And to be clear, a lot of that's politically motivated because he's kind of going at the powers that be. Wherever you fall on that, you may agree or disagree. I'm wondering like if you just, if you have, if you're a person like Hunter Biden and you go through this national scandal that may or may not be actually about you as a person, you are just kind of like in the subplot, you can always just go on Twitter and be like pretty good. And people are like, okay, you know what? This guy actually rules. We'll follow some. I follow him too. He's great. See what I mean? It just worked on me. All I had to do is see one good tweet. Now I'm like, actually Hunter Biden kicks ass.

Following zero people. Power move. This happened with George. George Santos, if you remember, who by the way, I meant to put this on the rundown yesterday, the much maligned congressman who was using campaign funds for only fans and for buying stuff and it was all sorts of crazy shit, got on Twitter and just started like kind of airing it out and doing posts that were fine. Then it came out that he might have put down a bet on one of the, what do you call Kalshi and the other thing? What are the, They're not gambling, but they're prediction markets. Prediction markets allegedly put down, they flagged him for creating an account,

putting a bet down on whether he would be at the state of the union. And then not go, like every, like then not going and basically like profiting off of his own prediction. This is all alleged. Anyway, I just think it's funny that we're now like, so we have Victor Bout the merchant of death, much maligned, you know, as he was a merchant of death, an arms runner, a prisoner traded for Brittany Griner in the last few years, as we remember. And now he's on Twitter.

He's even got a podcast. And I just think it's funny how you can't just go on X and just maybe pull back the curtain a little bit, do some posts that are decent, clap back at some people and next thing you know, what? What's everybody? What did I say? We're getting, we're getting to echo. No, no, KJ's in the chat.

calling out my rings. But I think you're getting an echo because you got the window, I'm muted. What are you talking about? I'm not getting an echo. Okay, we're good now then. Maybe we're good. I don't know. All of a sudden, we got echo like right when you started chiming in.

Oh. Okay. Hunter Biden. We're good now. Anyways. I don't know what KJ is talking about in the chat. What are you talking about? KJ's talking about.

I don't have to chat open. No, talking about KJ is. I know, but I feel like I need to. I'm missing out. No. I'm just over here talking out of my ass. They're talking, they're talking, they're talking ish on Dorn in the chat too. I get it.

Is he in the chat? No. Get in the chat, Dorn, you coward. Coward. How are you doing? Sorry for the derailment. I will accept minor responsibility for that. I did have some echo going, but it happened to be at the same time.

Speaking of Rails, Hunter Biden. Yeah. So is he like posting old picks and stuff or what's going on? No, he's just calling out. like Jake Tapper and shit. Is he addressing his, addressing the laptop at all? Yeah,

I think so, but he's just, he's just kind of pointing out that, uh, some of the cable news networks, specifically CNN or going after his, his mom and stuff when there's all this other stuff going on. And anyway,

um, it's just funny. Um, it's Hunter Biden. I don't know. I'm, I'll say this. Um,

if he followed one, person, you know, our Lord and Savior, he'd be a lot better off. So maybe think about that next time you log into X, Hunter. I don't know why. I just felt like that was an unforced area there. I don't know, man. I enjoy Hunter Biden as a spectacle. I just feel like we could have had so many other, like, characters in this era. And if I'm just limited to, like, presidential children, And you've got like the Bush girls end up on TV or at least one of them. Yeah. And like I think she does a good job in that role.

I think she's just fine. She's got better. She was really bad at first. Chelsea executed just kind of like most people that her family knew apparently. But also just kind of vanished into the ether. Okay. And I respect her for that. We don't have any proof that she executed just like her parents.

We don't know that. We do know her, uh, her guest. us at her wedding was interesting. Looking back, you know, we all look back at our weddings. Randy, maybe you'll be there one day. I'm sure you will. You're a nice young lad. Thanks.

Sorry. You're like, oh, man, I wish that. I wish I didn't have that person. I don't really talk to that guy anymore. Why was he in my wedding party? Whatever. You know, all that. Should have invited this guy.

You know, shouldn't have had the human trafficker at my wedding. Go Lane. That's one you want back, right? you don't need the human trafficker at your wedding whoa whoa whoa whoa is she the human trafficker or the daughter of the guy that controlled all of like america's education and textbooks and sold you know maybe nuclear secrets to israel what what we're so far out of bounds right now we start talking about hunter biden you really think this is going to stay on the right i understand i I understand.

Did he, I think he was more of a crack smoker. You could smoke it. It's made for, it's cracked cocaine. It's made from cocaine. It's cheaper. It's a quicker high, but it's much more addicting. So he was off the rails. He was just on the pipe.

Shout out J.R. Smith. Okay. Okay. Not a crack user, to my knowledge. The pipe was the joke. A reference, of course, to his penis. I thought it was the golf game that we were referring to. A good golfer in his own room.

What, KJ. Save it. Anything. I'm trying to live through the spirit of of Dylan Shivery. I didn't just completely whiff

on thinking of his name for a moment. You almost forgot Dylan's name? I was stuck trying to not say Michael Dorn and I'm like, I don't think that's the first name. Michael Dior. Roger. Michael Dorn.

Anyway, So let's move it along. Let's move it along. Let's do some basketball. How about that? Is that why Dylan's not here? His historical run of five days of all of his teams just fucking dominating is over? He split last night, though.

He did. He did. He had the emotional hedge that Texas softball took down Texas Tech. KJ, how many of the Texas and or Texas Tech? softball players have you looked up on instagram just go ahead and answer that i'm thinking very strategically if if i've sent any evidence one way or the other uh i don't think i have he has not he is not less fewer than two fewer than three for sure for sure but i only watched part of the game last night so texas roster i'm not that familiar with their game um i'm amazed every time

the we're i'm going to pivot to women's college world series real quick every time this tournament comes around, how quickly it is to become invested and, like, assume that I'm knowledgeable about a sport. Like, when hockey finals are on, it's similar, Stanley Cup finals, similar. But, like, I've built on that knowledge over decades, you know, kind of known the sport. I don't know shit about softball, but. There's something new each time. Like, this is probably year two, maybe three of us having it on, uh, at the office

throughout the day and like us kind of what, like really paying attention because there's obviously fandom involved. And also it's just, it is a fun watch. But like, there's always something new that like, oh, they can, they can do that. They can, you know, like year one, it was like, oh, they could just bring that pitcher back. Sick. It was the most jarring moment of like my sports existence in a while.

It's like, why are you pulling her after one pitch or whatever after one home run? Like, what are you doing? Oh, wait, she's coming back. Like nobody's loving this. What is happening? I don't know. Um, that's, that's my softball talk with the exception of saying, uh, I don't know if Dylan's take on Savannah ball or banana ball ever goes to the point of like it's bad baseball in between all the stick. There's very bad baseball being played at some positions. In between the allure of the pitching, the outfielder play in softball. Really, they could use an extra outfielder. Oh, cool. That's, that's the concession we should, we should consider. Add an extra player out there.

because these little legs ain't making it far a lot of makeable plays being dropped in the outfield anyways back to basket it's a bigger ball but softer and closer no mound ironically okay um did you watch the finals last night i caught it and split screen um what were you you splitting with softball i'm saying like up until the game was over yeah yeah yeah good i watched them both the same time until the softball game was done then a primary to uh basketball which is oddly enough like about the time that the tie turned for the nix um immediate statement for the finals i didn't care about the court glad it looks good again sure whatever San Antonio deserves continual credit for how cool the crowd looks when they do the

multicolored color shirts. Go to color scheme. I think the heat when they do the white heat is tremendous because or whatever they call it, white hot heat during the playoffs or finals. Yeah. Looks tremendous because so many people in Miami like say, I'm not going to put on your fucking $2 shirt, but I will wear this like $500 shirt. But they, but they still part.

taken all white. Yeah. So the spurs looked great, except for Deer and Fox and except for the end of the game. Yeah. I'm still going to stick with Spurs in six. I'm now wanting to say Spurs and seven, but I keep waiting for someone to be able to like really slow down Jalen Brunson,

especially in the fourth. And it just doesn't appear that that's going to happen, which is okay. You can let him get his. you just can't let the role players go off. And I was a little overconfident with, I think I sent it. I was looking for the text I sent to you,

Jake, and Landry three weeks ago about when be what he's going to do to Kat in the finals. And that didn't happen. And like Cat is like, I don't give Cat enough credit. A lot of people don't. But like he held his own. And Wemby is not going to be able to ragged all him

like you did Chet. They're obviously different players, different physiques. Kat's not a rail thin guy. But yeah, man, interesting. I don't like how many Knicks fans are there. I kind of get a little tech, even though I'm not a Spurs fan at all, I get a little like just a slight amount of Texas bowing up where I'm like, all, hey, why don't you'll fucking chill. First of all, you're messing up the color scheme that we just talked about. What was that? that was my phone okay um and second of all like i just don't need um i don't need the guy from i don't need kira sedgwick from the closer on the fuck court side or whoever the fuck there's is down there i don't think kira sedgwick was there but you know what i'm saying it might

have been kira sedgwick but so good um i agree i i 100% agree and in fact i've got a good friend who has been riding this Nick's playoff run very aggressively but he's like a diehard Texas fan diehard Cowboys fan in the type that will post like 15 stories about the same subject

just into their story and so being inundated with Nick's stuff is a lot however I kind of feel like I want to see how insufferable Knicks fans and media can get. Yeah.

You're right. And I feel like we've got time for Winby to get his. I'm rooting for the Spurs, very clearly, rooting for the Spurs. No question about it. I like Jalen Brunson. Hell,

I like everybody on the Knicks team, but I think the Spurs have something special and appreciable. I don't know if that's good word. If this next team was like Milwaukee, you know, in almost every, you know what I mean? Like, I would be all over this team. Yeah. And I'm not, I don't hate, I don't hate New York teams necessarily, but like, I don't know. Like, who, who are Nick's fans like outside of New York? Like, the worst people. If you're a

Jersey, if you're from Jersey or say Jersey or surrounding like, yeah, do the Nets, are you not loyal to the Nets? How does that work? I'm asking, I don't understand. Not that I'm not, I'm not here to, I only fan gatekeep when Dylan's here. I'm not trying to gatekeep again. I felt bad about that. But I'm just curious, like, I know it's great for the city. If you live in New York City, it's probably a really, really fun time to be there. But I'm just, I'm curious.

And also, like, I'm also wondering what Tim and Ben Stiller and the other celebs that are there, who are probably going to be at Game 2. Timothy. What are they doing in between? in San Antonio. Are they flying back? Are they sticking around hitting the river walk,

senior frogs, maybe going to the JW Marriott and just checking that pool scene out. Randy knows what's up. They've not left La Canta since like the game ended. That's it.

Maybe they went to Fiesta, Texas. They might have gone. They might have rode the Rattler at Fiesta, Texas, famously gave my dad Whiplash back in the 90s. Trying to check out

some Truroes. Who knows? I don't know. I feel like, with this series, the problem with the Knicks fans, it's not even a gatekeep thing for me, but like with Mets fans, for example, you have Mets fans who publicly lament their, how bad they are year round. With Nix fans who are Nix fans, you see it every year during this time.

And I'm sure in New York, you do see that quite a bit. Celebrities, you see it quite a bit. But I think people you and I might interact with. you do not fucking hear about the Knicks even this year until it's convenient and then they're loud and obnoxious. Cowboys fans, you hear it year round. They have to wear it. They're the target year round. But this like convenient fucking, I don't know, what do you call it? Uh, bandwagoning situation, but then they're claiming to be diehard Knicks fans. I'm like, fuck out of here. It's like, it's like Bears fans or White Sox fans or even like Purdue basketball fans. Okay. It's like that.

They're doing the Randy method. It doesn't matter. until you're in the playoffs and have a good team. You know, then you're, I'm a lifelong fan. Sure. Doesn't mean I'm an active fan. He just hates that.

Well, no, what you're trying, I guess what you can claim there is that you're not like, you're not going around rooting for other teams in between. Yeah. You're apathetic outside of the times that you care about your teams. And I can,

I can ride with that. I don't know if that's the case for a lot of these Knicks fans. And then also whenever your team is good, Knicks fans are, again, the most obnoxious. Actually, Celtics, I'm the, I'm the opposite. When Purdue is good, I'm usually still pretty harsh on that. Randy is, until that clock hits zero, Randy's like, yeah, eh, need to, now, we'll find a way to fuck up this eight point lead with two seconds left. I just start paying attention when my teams are good.

Doesn't mean that I am boasting about how good they are. Fair. Absolutely fair. Yeah, I don't know. I'm interested to see what happens to the series. I think six games is a safe, you know, maybe a kind of a P-WA to predict any series. It's a seven-game series.

But hey, I respect you for your thoughts. Can we going to win me out of the basket? No, because he has to be a threat everywhere. Otherwise, can get beat up and get fouls. He takes so many dumb fouls.

I'm not here to critique that dude's game whatsoever. But he's getting caught for a bunch of hands-on-the-back fouls, and they're diving appropriately so. But he's getting treated like he's shack and he's not physically shack. Like it's kind of strange to see. They turn the ball over a lot. I'm trying to think of what the scene's going to be like for game three. And if it will be better or worse if the Knicks are up to O or if it's tied 1-1.

And I certainly think, I don't know, I think 2-0 would be just unsustainable, like, fires, in the street type shit if they win game three and then i want to see it all if i can go the other way fat joe i want them to go up three oh of course that joe was there bx in the building i really like fat joe and jada kiss's clips i don't know if i i want to listen to or watch their whole show but i appreciate it's it's one of many pods that i've consumed via clip only yeah if you're consuming this clip you got to go subscribe to the pod please please shout to Jeff Teague in his pot as that's another where yeah remember it was like you'll never catch me all the smoke it was all the smoke was like

the only one and now there's there's um you have many options of ex players telling fun stories so everybody wants to be Richard Jefferson when he was doing his pause in the plane on the way back during while being an active player with JJ yeah and now he's out there basically his own brand so You got LeBron just fucking on the, just hitting golf balls off the yacht. What a time. All these, all these ex-ballers are taking up all my hobbies, golf and podcasting. Are they leading to bad predictions or do we have anybody else talk about before we talk about

how your predictions have gone? What predictions? 82 and out. I think this is a quick bite, quick little nuggy. Um, it is. Real quick, though. Can I mention something? Yeah.

slash circling. That's better help.com slash circling. KJ, looks like you could, you were, you were nodding. You were, you were feeling my pain. Uh, yes. Um, I would have come in today talking about the first week of coach pitch baseball. But that's just been overwhelmed by kindergarten concert Friday, field trip to the zoo on Monday, field day on Tuesday, which turns out nobody actually cared about the field day because we've woke it up so much that people were just there for the family picnic before departing. And so yeah, I'm just been looking forward to ending, uh, not ending the school year, ending it all. Okay. Not ending at all.

Yeah. Good. Just the school year. The end of the year. Hey, let me tell you this on that zoo trip. Be careful around those orangutans. Yeah, don't get too close. Just call call call back to cold call.

Just, oh, we've learned some things about them that. Should not have been as shocking as they were because you're like, oh, yeah, that's what happens. But also you're like, ah, we got a little behind the scenes from a zookeeper. And it turns out you can't just take a middle-aged female orangutan and just put her in, like, the exhibit with the middle-aged male and expect it to work out. There's a chainling fence involved. Oh, yeah? Sucking. Okay.

Through the fence. Some sucking. some stabbing. Oh, you could just say they put a glory fence and I get it. You don't need to. A glory fence. Like that's a thing that everyone. Fashioned a shank and attempted to kill another zookeeper.

That's true, apparently true? Go listen to. I'm telling you. Yeah, it's a cold call. Get the full, the full story of it all. Is that this week's cold call? To make sure. Tuesdays.

Okay. I'll go check it out. A liver. A liver shop. Mm-hmm. Like, new, you know where to put it. It's a zookeeper who takes care of the penguins at the Fort Worth.

See, I'll send it to her, see if she can echo any of that sentiment, knows and good stories. That seems like a lot more fun. That's a smelly exhibit, but a fun. A lot of fish.

A lot of fish, Randy. And then the stuff you feed to the kids, because she, anyways, whatever, or not kids, the penguins.

Chum and whatnot. So, what are you doing? The internet. that gave us a website yesterday that I would probably say it reminded me of the good old days of stumble upon, where you'd use stumble upon, stumble upon for those at home who were born like at a reasonable time as well

after the 80s. You click on the website. You just click stumble and it would just send you to a random website. Now, I think that they pared down the options because I never got sent to like Plummer and Akron, Ohio's website. It would usually be some sort of subset of sites. Oftentimes, it would lead you to stuff like what the internet had yesterday, which was 82 and O. How did you find this? Or how did this come your way? Was it Twitter feed or what? I just kept seeing people tweeting

about it and posting their teams. And then I got in this morning and Will and Brett were like all over it. There's that there's an NHL one. And so I was like, fuck it. I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm I'm going to hop in. And I, I spent more time that I'd like to admit, putting together like 55 win teams. That is very bad. I never got above 60 in my four or five tries.

So the goal of the game is they hit you with a little, it's very bare bones website. It offers you two options. By the way. I love a good bare bones. This is a good throwback. Yeah, for sure.

It gives you classic or whatever the meta-brained one. I haven't tried to go any harder than the classic. Up IQ. And the goal of the game, thank you, Randy, is when you play classic, it will give you a team and an era. And then you have to pick one player for each of the five on the court for basketball. And it spins the wheel for both the team in the era. And you make your selection and sorts of buy points per game. Very straightforward.

As Dave mentioned, there's the same format for other sports. I played the football one a few times before realizing that it all spawned from this tree. I want to give everyone the piece of advice that took me like 25 plays to learn is that I didn't realize you could re-spend. Randy, do you mind hitting just the spin button? We're just going to make a quick selection. I know it's all free pub for a dumb site here. I hope this is like draining my bank account. So great.

So, yeah, so Spurs from the 2020. 20s, not the 1920s, because there would be nobody named Damar on the team for sure. Probably some victories. Or Deerrin or Desjante. Definitely to Wimbun Yamas. I like the, this is a great game, a very dangerous game for overthinkers.

So like there's a guy looking at this at home like, yeah, actually there's a argument for Dejante. over Wembe because if you think about like there's a real like ball no or overthink to this but you obviously are going to Wemby at center so yeah we're you're gonna get 1.8 steals per game you're not gonna find that in any other air any other team okay so great you've spun you've picked your player I only would go as far as pick one more like hit one more spin because here's the the key thing that I didn't realize is when you get this loaded up I kept trying to get all these

right the first pass through but over the little court there on the right get that in that purple refresh circle over there, you can re-spend your era and your team one time. I did not know that. So I would get locked into the 90s on the fucking Denver Nuggets. And I'm like, oh, geez. Well, what am I going to do here? Not knowing like, I think I could spin again to get to Chicago.

So is that, I didn't know that. Is that one time per big spin or one time in like her game? Okay, per game. Yeah. So you only get these little two shots each game. And so you're obviously slotting players in the position and you're doing it blind to the others and what's coming ahead of you. So it's a little pressure. But it's a fun bit. So if you want to waste company time as you're listening to your, you know, favorite podcasts and your mom's second favorite podcasts circling back, you could have this up on the side. I don't think it's cheating. You're a visual show. You could do both. Do you want to do you want to stick with us? We got it. We got a pretty good start. We got. So what we have here. Oh, okay. See in the eight. of course Seattle. Of course, that's Dale Ellis. Dale Ellis is the name. Yeah.

Or do we want to spin again? This is Uncle Dale Ellis at forward or shooting guard. 26 points, it's hard to pass up on, but those are also prime positions where you need a lot of talent. I think I might lock in Dale Ellis at small forward.

Okay. I'm good with that. I would have done the same thing. We still have our two re-spins. We're in a good spot. Oh, come on. 70s. Now, here's where that re-spin comes in play.

I think getting out of the OKC territory would be key here. Yeah, yeah, I don't. There's two names I recognize, and one is because Lenny Wilkins was a hall, like a coach. Yeah, yeah. So you want to re-spin the team? Yeah, let's respin it. Dictator in China for a while, right?

That was the same guy. Sorry, that's my Lenny Wilkins looks like the Emperor of China. Joke series. It takes two different buckets. All right. So this is where we are. Oh, Portland in the 70s. Now,

because it sorts by points per game is where it catches you off guard. We're looking for a point guard, shooting guard, but we also need a center. Oh, we already got our center. That's the tough part. And the four,

because Bill Walton was staring me in the face, but we don't need a center anymore. We've got Wemby. Oh. Yeah, we're going to have, I think we're going to have to just, recycle the era Portland's got a lot of

fucking you can get Dame Lillard in like two different eras maybe three oh yeah maybe we could get Bonsie Wells so we're gonna go recycle the era yeah recycle that era

we're out of respins here okay we're in the oh damn yeah oh Lamarcus oh it's actually an argument if he's healthy uh Brendan Roy um

you gotta go I think you gotta go Dame at point card I think so too unless you feel it up good I like Lamarcus at Power 4 wouldn't be bad, but I agree with you at Dame.

All right. It's a good value. We've got three of the five positions right now. Okay. With no re-spins left. He's shooting guard and power forward. Oh, fuck. Washington, the 2000s.

Michael Jordan? But Jordan from the 2000s with Washington. Is your stat line here? Does it account for that? I think that's the part that I got hung up to. You're not getting career stats. You're getting whatever they averaged for these years in this era. Because I'm looking at tough juice in the two.

Look at Karam Butler. and not just because he tore Achilles the year the Mavs won the title I mean Kron's taking Jordan on rebounds but not on assist he's getting them on steals I'm still Mike got Jordan here

what about what about Agent Zero Agent Zero is shooting guard so I can just sort by guard too so we don't correct yeah so you don't get to pick their spots you see their spots underneath the names so like Gilbert's not an option we already have a point guard we got Dame

are they going to put this in an app we don't know the answer. Yeah. This would just be really just a good way. It's already my favorites. Let's lock in Michael at shooting guard. It's a, we've got to sell tickets, Randy.

I mean, Michael Jordan. I mean, yeah, I mean, he's go. Yeah, we're not, we're not touching 70 wins.

I can, so we got powerful. It's all we need left. Unless we get like a, oh, okay. Okay. You called it into existence.

Ooh, shit. You got Zeebo or Sheed or Rashid. Howales. Yeah, I think you got to get a sheet. You got to a sheet. You need somebody tough.

No offense to Lamarcus. Seagoville's on. 61 and 21. Yeah. That's the best I've done. And I would have said we were at 65. That's, I mean,

scroll down real quick so we can see the summary of the players. That's my first team out of the 50s. There's so much Portland. I feel like the spinner. I've gotten Portland so many times. And then the examples of perfect teams that I've seen. it has always included Dame at point guard

but I don't know if the era's been different Let me really quickly glance at what the perfect team I saw at 82 and out Dame Lillard to point guard from 2020s Richie Gehrin, New York Nick from the 60s at shooting guard

Don't know He's the one who had to go to hospital with a gerbil right? Richard Geer but yes actually not Richard gear but allegedly allegedly I appreciate it and then you get Michael Jordan from the 90s and that's where they really make their hay here uh elvin hayes from the rockets in the 60s and then they finish it off with wilt

from uh philly in the 60s as well and that put their team overall at 113 802 and o S tier that's tight what do they got to show for it I mean, they got some claps in the in the group chat over here. You also had another 78 and 14 Russell Wellsbrook at Point. AI at shooting guard. Cunningham. Billy Cunningham. It's at small Ford, big cat at Powerford and big diesel, Shaq Diesel at center.

So do that AI Russ backcourt's insane. It would never be eligible to play 82 games. That's what they're missing as a variable here. Like you might as well put fucking. jaw in there too. Jaah, Gilbert. I appreciate what Landry mentioned. He was trying to see if he gave the team to go,

Ofer. And I think he was focused on basketball, but for any of these, like could you go O for 82 or O and 16 or whatever the football one is? And that's hard to do too. That's a guy. You have too much, people have too much time on their hands. They're just trying to do

0 for 80, the worst teams or some guys are trying to do like the all white guy teams you know it's okay come on come on no it's what did you do in the office back in the day when you had some extra time on your hands well like what's the traditional thing to do to kill time in the office i listened to church get up working on your putting game touching base i was listening yeah that's what i did i was just um just taking extra i just started smoking for the breaks see i was figuring you're going to tell me work on your strip work on your swing and not stroke Maybe work on your putting for him.

Oh, yeah, this whole thing? You must be referring to this Meridian putter, who by the way is presenting this weekend in Fawn. Bro, let's go out this weekend. There's a crazy event happening. I like to turn off. Bro, there's a crazy event happening. We had the party and it was lit.

I got yelled out by a prostitute. Let's just go have fun and let go with it. Little more throws, let's go. That's right, this weekend in fun presented by our good friends at Meridian Pudder. Father's Day is coming up, KJ. If you're planning to phone it in again this year with a last-minute gift card or a tie or a book he may not even read, let me put you on to something else. Get him a new putter.

Go check out Meridian Putters. This here is the... This is Dillens. This is the Key West. I have the Nassau, and I really, really enjoy it. I've made the full switch to it. It is now my A-putter in my bag. Show Dad, you thought it through this year.

If you go to Meridian Putters, pick out all the details, choose a bletting. later amount for him, choose the face milling, the finish, the grip, and the paint fill. And check this. You can even get it engraved for him. That's right. Meridian offers personalized engraving on most putters. Get his name on there. Or like, or just dad or pops or whatever you call him, you know.

Old man. Big hoss. Huh? Big hoss. Big hoss. You didn't. Oh, okay. Hoss.

This is Dillon's. He likes his too. Dylan, if there's a place Dylan can pick up strokes, it's around the green and this Key West, which I really like. It has a good feel. I'm kind of sad.

I didn't take this one. But I do like my Nassau. Load up the cart. Use code Steam 20, 20% off your entire cart. Putter for dad, maybe a matching one for you. Take dad out to the putting green

for a little contest or maybe just, throw down a cup. We've got a couple golf balls and just roll on the carpet a little bit. See what's up. That is a Father's Day. It's June 21st. Order your putter now. Put the stress of gifting out of your mind.

All right. We won't, we're never going to see that kid again, are we? not in the same fashion not at all until he opens up an only fans and tells you he's a millionaire the next day yeah because i i'd put him out with the catch me outside is where i would put him i need that collab oh yeah this weekend how about that as we approach the final week of school uh we've got too many activities starting up i mentioned baseball began during the week that is Monday and Wednesdays. Sunday is swimming lessons followed by a birthday party. Best time of the years also the neighborhood pool opens up. It opened a couple of weeks ago.

I quickly realized the real reason for me carrying around this little ID puffer is when that fateful day comes that my wife's like, hey, you know what, I'm going to take the kids. I'm going to go back home. Just chill. You can hang out here at the pool. You know, and I just kind of put out a good vibe. Keep the eyes on the swivel. I'd like to be at road pool just seeing what's up seeing who's trying to hang out so i was just trying to have a you know caprice son after the kids go to school so i'll be on i'll be on the lookout this weekend are you looks maxing you kind of are a little bit a little bit okay vibes max at the pool little vibes max how about that i like it that sounds a lot like my weekend actually but i'll we'll go randy next my weekend uh so

might do a little a movie night tonight at a at a restaurant with some friends so that that's maybe on there because it stays Thursday I'm just saying Alamo start off I was going to say wait time is there okay Patrizies I'm not trying to blow up your spot here I guess frame this is you guys try to docks me but I was invited to so might might go do that we'll see uh the rest of the weekend trying to take it easy I mean there's talks about maybe going paddleboarding if the weather's, uh, weather's okay. But I think Saturday going to get some P. Terry's, they're doing their day of giving.

So might just help out and support there. Pete Terry's great establishment. Uh, so and then I'm really trying to take it easy because next three weekends are really, really big weekends for me. So we're trying to, we're trying to keep it as close to a bleak end as possible, but we'll see how that goes. I got another project that I've been working on for a while as a gift. I've mentioned in the past that I want to try to finish this weekend.

So it's going to be a lot of working on that project and trying to do some stuff without, you know, spending a bunch of money. Such a project, bitch, this guy. Mm-hmm. Got to stay busy. If you will. One I don't give a one. The next time is so unnecessary, but go ahead.

I'm going to go to a restaurant and watch a movie on my phone and ignore my family. I'm just going to have like the new Mario movie that I've actually seen like three times now because it's on my home constantly. We bought it. It was like 25 bucks, but whatever. I didn't pay for it. I'm just going to put it on my phone and just be like, uh-huh, uh-huh, and I'm watching it. No, real, I'm very confused. Is there like a bar or a restaurant that shows a movie whilst you eat? I believe so. I can tell you guys after after a podcast. Yeah, yeah, we don't need to put it on blast, but I don't think anybody's going to show up. They're going to show up.

If history has told me anything, you're going to be like, whoa. There's the Red Man. We just had to see you, man. I love what you guys are doing. You're going to be talking to you in the whole movie. Check out this part. They're not putting in the effort that they used to at Magic Time Machine.

So it sounds like, like they're not going to actually dress up as characters. They're just going to fucking walk up with an iPad and show you the genie from Aladdin and be like, okay, can I take your order? Like, no, no, no, no, no. You need to paint yourself in blue and then come back to my table. them offer me a $20 drink. They're going to send me in a Dick Tracy's section. And I'm like, I really want a Betty Boop, man.

Really wanted Betty Boop. Yeah, I've probably going to, weather permitting that lifetime pool, got to hit it, got to hit it. Weather permitting, I got to hit some golf balls. I got to do it. I got to roll my meridian putter out there a little bit. weather permitting, of course, we do have a birthday party. I can't remember if it's one of like Sam's classmates or friends.

Two and a half year olds don't really have friends. They just have people they remember. Or one of Rhodes's actual friends. I don't remember, but we got something on the docket. And I'm just going to be sports and pretty hard. Got Memorial. We got it on out there. J.T. Posting out there.

J.J. Spahn. Let's go. Leaderboard looking fun. looking good speed i think finish it too in the mix love it thursday speed in the mix what else and that's about it that is about it okay and NBA finals uh so we can all just overlook the obby-dabi like tourism patch on the next shirts as we continue to bash live but not talk about that oh just saying just saying real convenient for the court side attendees is there, but hey, far for me to connect the dots.

That's why I like having KJ on. He keeps it real. He's not afraid to go there. We only have a Friday game. So we've got game two tomorrow and travel day built it. We're not getting another game until Monday. Oh, uh, yeah. Stanley Cowell.

Let me give you something to do tonight with your time for the two people in the audience who will also be interested at around 7 p.m. Central, um, my greatest addiction on this planet after cinnamon rolls, uh, slightly ahead. of Pokemon is college football, the video game. They debut trailer features and all that good jazz tonight for college football 27. So I will be actively ignoring my family and looking my phone at 7 o'clock tonight. Colin Simmons made the cover. Yeah.

Yep, yep, yep, yep. Very cool. Are you ready, David? Four? For everyone's favorite. Oh, yeah. We got commies. Let's do the commies.

Comments of the week. Maybe I'll get a little theme song in here. I'll start off with just some ones with the chat today really quickly. I meant to say this earlier. Max says, this is important for you, David, I want to take this opportunity to say, Dave is so funny. And he looks better than he used to as well. Very nice. Very nice.

And shout to Cormick's wife whose birthday is this weekend. He's a big wife guy. All right, but let's get to the actual comments from today. This is, this one had a lot of. I've up votes, so I decided to. Alyssa says, Randy, since I know you read the comments, tell the boys we need the wives on the pod.

I want a wise tell all with Chey-Chay and Alyssa. Also, Will's should take a step forward to make Will Wednesdays a thing, full pod or just even a pop in for a segment. Anyways, love the pod. And I got a lot of likes. So I thought I'll just bring it to your attention. All of the likes. I think that the problem, folks, is that, you know,

the wives have full-time jobs. They can't really just hop in. here. But I mean, it's up to you guys. Take a day. Take a day. Okay. Tony says this, I like this one. If you're listening to this and you don't subscribe to Patreon, sack up and support the boys. Nothing better than knowing my dollars are going to supporting rent fares, Austin, Little leagues, and baked potatoes. Sweet potatoes at times too. Really? This is, this is from the a bird episode, which some people are really enjoying and Dylan really hated. Chris says, 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, Instant Classic.

Let's go. That was good. Goated. Ian says, the early bird impression is funnier than it should be, which cozy then responded, don't encourage him. Too late. Too late. I'm already encouraged.

Oh, God. You guys messed around and encouraged Randall. Uh-huh. And Jeff says, Dorn is lucky he corrected himself. Woo boy, I was ready to torture his ass with a meme. on the subreddit. That was about Garth Brooks and Clint Black. I just love that we have fans out here

threatening to torch us with memes on the Reddit. Stage we live in. And then this was my favorite one of the week. This comes from Thursday when Micah was on. And this is from Jeremy. But if Micah's here, who's liking all the reels? Great point. The number one liker.

So shout out to Jeremy. You win the comments of the week this week. That's big, big facts. You want to run it back, David? You want me to do? Oh, yeah. Go ahead. Yeah, let me run it back.

Of course, this is the segment where we talk about what we discussed over the week. It says some quotes, some quotables. The algorithm doesn't like testicle. That's true. If you told Dave in 2012 that Randy would win bingo at Opa, he'd say gangam style. Dave got some sweet potato this past weekend. and then sauced his ribs up something special like. Dave pictured Dylan with each bite of his hot dog.

Dylan's a real one for cleaning. That's true. That's running back. And that's run it back. Well, KJ, anything you want to plug? Oh, buddy, there is. But for the good people out there, again, I will just remind you that you can find me at KJ Ellis with ones as the L's, occasionally on Twitch at Partial. Recall underscore, I believe.

Losing on college football. Sometimes I'll play a little Pokemon, but fucking around talking with chat otherwise. But yeah, until then, keep your eyes up and keep looking to the stars. Bye-bye. Chris Craddock sign off. See you.

Beautiful. Bye-bye.
