Happy to be here folks. I don't know about Jim Hats, Jimmy Hats, one or the other. Don't know either. Waited a while to get that one out. But I'll say this. I had a moment of panic right before this show as I typically do. Told Randy I was completing a task. Said task. was the show 90 seconds before joining i looked at myself in this camera said you're a good looking motherfucker right and i'm like yes uh just a quick affirmation you know and then i realized i was wearing the same exact outfit that i wore last week when i did the show or two weeks ago

whatever and i'm like yeah cartoon character you can only roll out the darius rucker look once a month how about that she says alone by layer on post Bears and sunshine. That's not the same song. It's also a great song. Man, I wish you would have worn your skin suit. I've not talked to him. I've not talked to my neighbor who decided to wear a skin suit with three-year-old and five-year-olds to go trick-or-treating.

But one quick Midwest humbling experience and, you know, I'll brag about having a basement where I'm at right now. till the end of time. I don't love that when I've got to try to test my athleticism and see how many steps I can like lunge, step, hurdle, hop up to the upstairs floor, retrieve a shirt and calmly come back down. I'll let you know on one wounded hamstring made that trek fairly, fairly seamlessly on the way up, busted my ass real good on the way. down. Nothing fully damaging, but running back down carpeted stairs and socks. Oh,

finished basement while trying to like unbutton. Not great. Not great. I got some Midwest questions for you, KJ. Uh, new segment. Yeah. Here's some Midwest questions. Just two quick ones. Did you get snow and did you see the Northern Lights? Uh, yeah, bro. Um, we all a little dusting, if you know what I mean? Um, nothing shovelable, nothing that I had to worry about clearing out from the sidewalks, definitely nothing like you may have seen near Chicago or near your neck of the woods on the other side where lake effects snow is a real thing. We were chill with that part. I'm intended to bring the clip. I failed society by not getting the clip. Aside with the second, third love of my life, Casey Musgraves and her opinions about, uh,

The Northern Lights, don't fucking bring those to me or show them to me because every time I go out and attempt to try to observe said Northern Lights, it's just a clear-ass, fuck-ass sky. Clear-ass-fucking-ass sky. That's the best kind of sky. Yeah. Man, I'll tell you this, if you had to do like a special trick on your phone to get a photo of them, like, by special trick, I mean, just a long exposure or whatever, it doesn't count. Yeah, they're the exact opposite of the moon. You may as, that may as well be as like, that's as fake as the Jimmy Webb telescope, like, NASA or whoever having to, like, do the color in all the shit, you know what I'm talking about? Dude, I totally agree.

I can just look up pictures of the Northern Lights all day long on my computer, you know? I want to fucking see them. Yeah, I want to see them with these two eyes. That's right, dude. These eyes. Okay. Okay. So you're not for, like, the hidden figures, like colorization of space photos.

I respect it. but yeah it is kind of the dog ears of uh like i don't have a dog tongue i have dog ears i don't have fucking northern lights outside so if i have to get a camera to see it it's not real i'm i'm with that you're comparing the northern lights to the snapchat dog thought filter yeah it's snap i just call it snap but yeah they're gonna take away the benefits of our dog filters on snap snap snap benefits Why is Bernie doing snap talk? Bernie's been around the office a lot lately.

I don't know why. Big day for the DSA. I just enjoy them. Well, thanks for joining us. We got a, I woke up, rolled out of bed, planter fashion wasn't barking, and I was feeling Slady. Ooh, wee.

I'm feeling Slady, too, dog. They were calling me Slaterson. Really? Check you later, check you later. Check you later. It's from a movie. I love movies. Hey, you know what else I love?

Stone Creek coffee. Oh, yeah. You're probably wondering, why are the boys just buzzing right now? Why is everybody so locked in, dialed? It's because we've been drinking Stone Creek coffee. That's all I'm drinking in my house these days and at the office. Same. Every day.

Every damn day. We've been telling you about how great they are, Stone Creek Coffee. Now Stone Creek wants to spread the word on the new project. You heard about this? You heard about this stuff? They just launched it called Control Freak Coffee. Oh, yeah. What does that mean exactly?

Why don't you explain to everybody? Well, we already know they control all variables, unlike some people. Mm-hmm. But it's built for people who love coffee, but don't always love what coffee does to them. You know, that jittery, teeth buzzing, heartbeat in your neck feeling. Control Freak fixes that. It's coffee designed around caffeine control. so if you're looking for 100% that caffeine you want like the regular amount fine they got that

for you 100% they got it they got a 75% they got a 50% a 25 and even a zero known commonly as a decap but but the zero percent on the control freak that's called the just vibes you know you know what i love the artwork too yes great i love it so much i'm going to go get a package and go get it you keep doing the read okay are you really going to get up like right now yeah He's got, okay, yeah, go, dude. Go get it, man. Next step, it's the 25% That's called the lightly buzzed.

That's what I call Dylan. I think this is what I call you. You do. And then you got the 50% That's kind of the, that's the true half-calf. It's called balanced. And then the 75%,

that's when you're getting, that's when you're getting your work done. Controlled chaos. And of course, 100% that's full throttle. That's how I live. Look at you, Randy. All right.

Doing some producing on the fly. We have five products from Stone Creek coffee. We didn't have enough products here. No, but the control freak's a good one because that's the new one. That's the new John. You got to check it out. It's the same high quality, ethically sourced beans that they've always roasted.

and she was listening to some And I just assumed it was like the fairy porn shit, you know, what? Okay. Yeah. You don't talk about, KJ. I mean, I do. Yeah, the fairy city. What is it called?

The crowd of thorns. Oh, yeah. The court of Roses and Thorns and Roses is the fairy smut one. That mom smut. Yeah, the mom smut, which she's been known to consume. Fourth wing is the dragon's spots, of course. I like the dragon smut because I think it's funny when dragons are fucking. Yeah, it's good stuff.

Dragon style. Whoa, watch that flame. uh right but no she was like now i'm listening to something else i was like what she's like well i was talking to uh i was uh dming with meg duda john duda's wife i'm like oh that's cool shouts to meg fan of a fan of her and her husband will be with her husband very soon we will be with him i was like well what is it what has she gotten you into this time she's doing um randy i think you were either going to love or hate this have you heard of the Harry Potter fan fiction?

No, but everything has fan fiction. There is apparently a Harry Potter fan fiction that is taking Harry Potter Nation by Storm. Really? Yeah, and it's like a thing. And it is a full-on alternate universe where I'm going to spoil. She hasn't finished it, but I'm going to give you what it is. So if you don't want to know anything, I'm going to just let you know. It is the order loses.

Oh, interesting. And Hermione is the only survivor, basically, from the crew. It's like the last Ronan, which is a teenage week of Ninja Turtles where only one survives. No, I didn't know about that. It's a graphic novel. I can give it to you. You might like it. Well, basically, yeah, so she's been doing that.

And I was like kind of blown away. I know about fan fiction, but this is like, this is reaching the geist. And obviously this person who wrote it, they can't make money on because it's fan fiction, right? And so it's just out there for free. And I think she's written, the author has written another book, like another series. And I was like, oh, because like at first I was like, man, this is weird. It's not part of the lore. This is just some rando.

But it's like really well written. She's just doing it for the love of the game? It's entertaining. It's interesting. And I guess the premise is she has like a thought. you've seen Harry Potter's right oh yeah there's a thought in her head T-H-O-U-G-H-T right that has been like everyone's trying to figure out what it is but she can't remember what it is and Voldemort's trying to figure out what it is

because it has some great has some very important information I don't know she's with uh Drago no Malfoy Drago he was actually uh just in what's it called uh the broadway like he the actual actor was in the theater performance he reprised his role oh that's very cool very recently like the past week that's a cool addition to the story yeah uh just saying drago mouth on well so she's reading that and i thought that was interesting and i was thinking man what's it going to take to get dillon to read some fan fiction that ain't happening why oh i'm not going to read harry potter be sad

were you just setting that up Dylan has to read his investing book yeah I got to finish my book on investing that was written in 1976 and it was very outdated Dylan sold all his crypto

I don't know yeah I'm not gonna I won't be in on any fan fiction but I do I do appreciate people who are into it as not you know it's fine hey 50 Shades of Grey started as Twilight fan fiction is that right

I didn't know that yeah There's a, there's a very funny thing on the internet of how 9-11 led to the downfall of Ellen. Yeah, it's real funny. It's just that my chemical romance started because Gerard was watching the events of 9-11. Twilight started because of my chemical romance's music. Yeah. 50 Shades of Grey started because of.

You're saying butterfly effect. Butterfly effect. And then Ellen's downfall was because of Dakota Johnson. pretty much calling her out Hey let me Could pause the show I'm rolling on the floor laughing About 9-11

It's just an incher Okay It's a unique thing On the internet He's literally rolling on the floor Laughing his fucking ass off right 9-11 changed every thing For Dobby

Paul Walker There is a week Where I just did I walked around my home Just doing Toby And Alyssa's like You know this is really like It's not funny

you got to stop you're just you're the only person laughing is you and she was right but Dolby is just such a good character it's that's Parks' favorite character in Harry Potter that's so cool

good for Parks yeah I love Dolby Digital like surround stuff tie stuff top line yeah that's good stuff just get the rocking KJ's hands

that's all he's a neat that's all he needs man I started pluribus they're doing that on OCCC aren't they? Yes. Oysters, clams, and cockles.

Yes. Remind us what that is. Hope you get a kickback there. Yeah. What's going on? I'm sorry. I'm supporting our friends' other podcasts. I'm just talking with you.

Yeah, but do explain plurbus because I've only become aware of like via these random tweets where people like, oh, it is that good. And then I find out it's on Apple Plus. And I'm like, I think I've got it. I didn't have it. I wasn't signing up. but sell me on this okay so i didn't really know what it was about i knew his post-apocalyptic but so it's is it rain a horn i'm in from saul better call saul you know the uh his love interest

or the blonde the blonde yeah who should have won an emmy and i don't think she did but she should have because she was great in that show um she is a she's in albuquerque we're back in new Mexico. It's a Vince Gilligan, John. Okay. So that's that's the yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Got it. Um, she's a writer. She writes, does novels, like for women, romance novel type deals. And she's, she's in a relationship and they're like doing a book tour, blah, blah, blah. And basically, I've only watched the first episode, but you find out that, um, there is a lab, and the lab becomes compromised and a lady essentially like scientists gets bit by a rat they're studying some pathogen of sorts virus and it hits humans and you have zombies but the catch is

these aren't like your grandma's zombies these aren't like I'm gonna I'm gonna run after you These are, you know, these are, these are zombies that are stay as functioning people, but they are seemingly through one episode very happy people, shiny happy people, holding hands. Not really holding hands, but they are just very like, and you don't know what the fuck's going on. It's very creepy. But her character is seemingly unaffected. She, um, it's transmitted through saliva. so you see like people walking up and kissing unsuspected people transmitting the virus they go they start seizing for like minutes maybe hours at a time and then they just snap out of it and then all of a

sudden they're just they're off they're different they're noticeably different and like it's very weird so you kind of get the end of the world stuff in this first episode but she goes home her something happens and she goes back home and long story short she realizes that she is immune to this she doesn't know why she doesn't know what the fuck is happening but you're watching it and it's like okay this is not say it your grandma's zombies okay this is different this is going to have more depth to it so through one i'm very much in okay yeah that's not going to show up that's terrible decision try to show this uh yeah i signed up for apple tv you had me at uh thanks between when you started this conversation now you just signed up

You had me at post-apocalyptic in zombies. Say no more, fan. It's not walking dead zombies, though. That's great. I'm fine with that. Anything you had post-apocalyptic, I'm in. That sounds dope. There's kissers out there.

They're out there. They're out there. They're kissing. Carl's out there somewhere and someone's trying to kiss him. They're happy. I was trying to kiss Carl. You don't know the rules. Who kissed my son?

We saw Carl's looking face. There is a cinematic masterpiece. Tom Brady kissed my son. okay that sounds very interesting it's good dude i mean one episode i'm like it left me it shook me a little bit i was like oh shit dave got shook y'all hits electrify you

i started watching something oh this is a movie though i'm halfway through it's a long movie it's two and a half hours i love this two and a half hours it's number one on netty right now and it's uh the new frankenstein adaptation okay have you seen this i no no but i can get behind the reason of the breaking movies into half though because i usually sit down for tv time about nine o'clock there's not a moment in my life where i'm hitting play on two half an hours parks is bedtime parks is at nine o'clock and so

if i'm going to start a movie it's got to be after nine o'clock and when you live when you live with Chelsea who falls asleep like every five seconds it's really hard to get a movie in a one night what do I have to do to get some smell insults by the bed and like which anytime she starts does and you just hit her with it like we'll start a movie I'm like so into it and then she just starts twitch and I'm like oh fuck here we go and just like I got to pause it I got to continue tomorrow anyway we're halfway through what's her handle oh twitch she's not she's not lucky she's not looking at first. We were all like staying away, staying away. She's not screaming. She starts twitches. He gets the sleep twitches, you know. Oh, do she have like the leg kick one? I'm a big

leg kicker. I don't think she kicks. No. Okay. Anyway, so it starts off, we're at this like, this, it's set way, way back. I don't know the era, but it's a long time ago. And it starts with this ship that's, they're going to the North Pole. And it's, they're going to the North Pole and it's, it's frozen and they're the guys are trying to like unstick the ship from the ice and then suddenly like there's this explosion out in the distance like two miles away like what the fuck is that they go out there to investigate and there's a guy who's injured is like on his back and the guy who's injured is dr frankenstein and they bring him back to the ship to kind of care for him and then that's when the monster appears and he's a tall dude probably like six eight

six nine ish not six seven and he is just a bad fucking ombre right and for ever reason he's trying to capture and potentially kill dr frankenstein and they're they're shooting him they're doesn't it doesn't work uh they're trying he's just he's throwing people he's very strong he's just a badass monster and then it takes you like back to the beginning on how we got to this point and again i'm halfway through but it's super interesting so far super interesting do you think you'll have it finished by next week yeah i think i will i might even i might even watch uh 30 more minutes tonight before chelsea falls asleep i'm in i'm in i'm in i can't give it my full recommendation i haven't finished it yet when did it come out i think it hit theaters around like early october which is a theater

thing that's what sauce told me i'm not exactly sure yeah it got originally released in theaters I didn't know anything about it really I think Jacob Allorty plays the monster Really But it doesn't look like him Because he's all, you know, piece together Yeah Baby Girl Gong for all the retail therapy fans

Okay Another kickback What are they paying you, dude? Our company The retail theory is us Now we've got the connection. I did, I looked at this last night and I said, I will, I will watch it. I'm going to get caught up or at least finish pluribus.

Yeah. Okay. Good. Check it out. Good. I will. It's got Christoph Waltz is in it, who is great actor. What would I know Christoph Waltz from?

And glorious bastards. And Jingo Unchained. He's in both of those Johns. Okay. Not Jamie Fox He plays the Jew Hunter And Glorious Bastards And he plays the bounty hunter

The dentist Oh yeah, you're right, you're right Yeah He's like the main Yeah, the main bad Nazi And glorious bastards Ah yes Good actor

He sure is Got it Well I think I'll I'll check those out in between my tushy breaks what a segue because you know your boy

you know your boy's got that tushy hooked up on his toilet you know your boy's got a clean ass two hole clean ass two hole that's that's redundant tushy is the everyday luxury bidet that instantly transforms your bathroom habits and bottom health for life whether you're shopping for a pro CEO daddy

activist or someone who lights their farts on fire it's the gift that refuses to pick a lane luxurious practical techie and so easy to use 99% of people who wash with tushy wave feel cleaner and fresher after going to the bathroom yeah yeah obvious checks out can confirm

yeah it shoots water up your two hole what's not to like yeah very easy to install saves you on toilet paper too took me like three or four minutes to install this bad boy got a little belly in your line and you save on toilet paper, get a little belly under there and your waistline, you got a belly, you can save on toilet paper by using a tushy. Okay.

Every tushy bidet easily attaches to your existing toilet without the need for additional plumbing. That's what I was worried about. I was like, oh, I don't want to have to like turn the, go out, turn the water off, go in there, start like, you know, get the wrench out. It's mad easy, dude. No, it's not like that at all. It's the opposite. People who've made the switch to Tushy use up to 80% less TP, like I was saying.

No more clogged toilets, Dylan. No more wasting money on something that does an inferior job cleaning your body. Remember, a hole is only a naughty word if you wipe. For a limited time, our listeners get 10% off their first bidet order when you use code steam at checkout. That's 10% off your first bidet order at hellotushy.com. with promo code steam what kj well done well done um i did not stray from the copy okay hey all i'm saying is there are perfect games out there and then there are uh what do you call it uh when they deploy the bullpen out the at the beginning but nevertheless might have been

a one hitter still still a dub hey i got a great text for my wife it says insurance is going up $408 for the year yet benefits are not changing in any way cool sick that's awesome man what a cool thing insurance flation yeah it's getting everybody man i thought like the tariffs were going to like i thought they were going to be more terrific dude just wait for your your tariff dividend check to hit okay why did brett show me something where the guy is like i say one of the guys is like i say one of the guys generic somebody was like you know that $2,000 might be in like the form of uh yeah we're not tax rebate yeah we're not getting two grand it's not it's not it's not gonna yeah don't count on it don't spend it and then

try to pay it off later we need another uh plan demic so they'll give us more like company cash for employees that we may or may not let go of yes we need an am tuner like dial change sounder when we switch from one show to WBAP on the fly. No, this is KRLD. We need the interstitial for people following along just via audio to get that quick pivot to all a sudden the guys that were just giving them two whole references are now talking to insurance premiums. Well, all I'm saying is like during the ongoing global pandemic, they were like, if

your company like if you were thinking about laying people off they could have sent you a bunch of check they sent you alone and then it was forgiven it was forgiven we didn't do it you can look it up you can look up all of them why didn't we do it something about being honorable i don't know we didn't actually well we were we were we weren't going to lay off randy we were just going to fire his ass yeah we were just going to yeah after one or two weeks after working for you ready work for us for a day and it was like ah sorry dude this shit shut down then the world shut down And people forget that my first day was March 17th, 2020. I was supposed to record you guys at South by Southwest.

And that didn't happen. No, instead we did a live stream for the Patreon house. Yeah, and it hit real hard. Our audience just like bombed the comments. They had no idea. No, they were like, what's going on with the chat? And the chat was just bit after bit. It was so good.

Was this daddy, what's called, Dennis Daddy? I can't think of the guy's name for some reason. No, no, no, that was, that was the next year. This is like month one of shutdown. You're talking about Zuckerberg. They canceled South by. Yeah, Zuck, Daddy. Dr. Zuck?

Yeah, no, that was a different South Buy event that we actually hosted in person. Yeah, having Mark Zuckerberg's dad just talk about teeth up on a panel. It was just interesting to witness. We did not know he was going to be there. I saw Dana White talking about Zuck recently. his son owns Facebook like what are we doing here Dana White's had some comments about Zuck and he was like all you guys out

there are you losers and nerds you think you can beat up Zuck you're wrong he'll whip your ass this guy trains Dana White like gassing up Zuck and I was like man he's definitely talking to Dylan I would have no problem taking Zuck that nerd gene runs real strong in that dude

let's see how tall is Zuck I feel like the sizes are comparable Dylan's guys I think he's not I think he's not six. Maybe six. I'm sorry, I brought it up. All right, he's 5-7.

Oh. Dude, I'm crumpling this nerd. So we got to line up something with Randy then. I'm crumpling this dude. I am 5-10. I am 5-10. No, I mean, just like the, you guys both have the nerd gene. A lovable nerd gene.

Okay. Okay. Right? Hold on. I'm sniffing the control freak. I don't drink coffee, but I love the smell. It sounds really good. Yeah, like some people.

don't do cocaine they just love how much mail are we going to do the slate are you guys going to keep doing like your politics and shit y'all are doing the best like impression of what would it sound like if only i decided what we talked about every episode and it would just be i had to do breaking news i'm mad that we're going to have to spend more money i respect it i appreciate it let's talk about the slate dog thank you i just need to gamble i'm feeling sleep before we before we get there though i did run a quick poll in the chat just to see if the chat agreed whether or not Dylan was wearing a Abraham Lincoln hat and they all agreed 16th president respect I love it thank you yeah all-time president man chat is also saying

zuck taking your back unk no no bro's cook we're not we're not doing the unc we're not to knock nah son they ain't happened all right let's do the slate let's get slady with it KJ, where do you want to start, man? The same way that I felt weird about us talking about BYU, Texas Tech is like an actual marquee game last week. It feels disingenuous and maybe like placating to a certain part of the country to start this conversation how I will. And that is not by talking about Texas UGA first because I think unquestionably that's

the marquee game, we looked at the schedule ahead of the season, regardless of team, Texas UGA was going to be a big determining factor for the year. If nothing else, I think at this point, maybe it could play less of a significance for one of those two teams, maybe even both. But we'll see. We'll get there, though. I wanted to start with Clemson, Louisville, which happens tomorrow, Friday night game. Louisville's ranked 20th at home, three-point favorite.

they're without their star running back Isaac Brown Louisville is in this collection of ACC one loss conference teams I think they may have yeah they've got one one loss in the conference teams

which includes SMU Pitt UVA Georgia Tech so Louisville needs to win this game but then you've got Clemson that basically needs to win out to get bowl eligible which is just kind of a fucking weird situation to be in I don't think we're at risk of losing dabbo

Jeff Brom or Brian whichever of the two is about to re-up his contract at Louisville otherwise I would have kind of pinpointed this as a is this his last game there conversation don't look at me David all of that intro

how much do y'all actually care about this game knowing that you aren't like ACC supporting college football fans this is a like a great Friday night game like this is yeah I would be watching if I wasn't going camping this this would this would definitely have my attention yeah I want to know what the hell is wrong with Clemson I haven't watched much of Clemson this year I know that they have fallen apart um Clemson and Penn State two teams SMU like pissed the bad to at the end of last year came back with the most returning starters pretty much of any team in the country

I think was number one number like percentage of your production on offense and defense returning they were number one Penn State was number two catastrophe on both ends I don't know what that means they improved their defense coordinator they took Penn State's D coordinator like you bring back the most experienced quarterback you've got a good coach I don't know and that seems scarier than if you're Penn State where you're just like hey we're blowing the shit up Our quarterback broke his leg or whatever. It just didn't work.

We're moving on. I'd be terrified to be a Clemson fan right now. For a Friday night game, it's a tier one Friday night game. Yeah. As a guy who watched USC Northwestern last week, which wasn't bad, but it was just, okay. This is good. And I also said, we were talking quarterbacks before the show, like in the bullpen. And we were reading, like, how many quarterbacks are, you know, where they're ranked and stuff.

I'm talking about Cade. And I think I said I could see Cade, like sneaky being a great NFL quarterback, despite this year. Like this, the quarterback draft class for 2026 looked like a very, very strong one. And then so many of them have just fallen apart. Like Ty Simpson has emerged, but you have Klubnick, you have Aller, you have Nussmeier, Carson, Beck. Sellers, these guys have all fallen. It's been a really wild. season for the quarterback anybody that you would have said before the season not on that list

and then everybody who's on that list Fernando you already said the other one I'm completely Ty Simpson is he eligible for Ty Simpson NFL I think he is he might be a sophie let me check but he might be red shirt soft I don't know these years I'll look it up but uh Julian San I think is the sophomore as well so he wouldn't be eligible but his completion percentage is just insane it's like 80 something percent he's he's having a season yeah he's a junior so he could come out if he wants tie simpson that is okay yeah you know he's got keel on right behind him just right on his ears next on the slate back to the acc again um last acc game on this slate for me number nine notre dame at number 22 pit um part of me thinks this is uh this

is where game day is going to be at part of me thinks this is the spn realizing like oh shit we did 10 straight weeks of SEC and big 10 game days look at us we're going to go to texas tech and then to pit like get the fuck out of here man yeah you've had plenty of options earlier in the year you're right that that could have been in texas georgia today exactly what makes no sense the the noise got to be too much for them for picking at cc games over and over again yeah uh pits 12 and a half point dog funny uh statement out of this by pat under doozy pits coach doesn't care if they lose by 102, 102, 104 to Notre Dame. It doesn't matter because if they were to win this game and then to lose next week,

they still would end up in like the Duke's mayonnaise furniture bowl and it would not matter. They can lose this, like you said, by 100 and then went out and they have a shot at the playoff. That's just where we are, non-conference game, yada, yada, yada. But for a conference that had Duke who was like a number five or six team in the conference last week lose to Yukon, you kind of need ACC to come away with a dub here and for Georgia tech to look competitive again against Georgia to like save some grace. So I don't know, but I think Notre Dame's going to whop that ass. It's not going to be fun. This would,

this would move Notre Dame out of it, right? If they were to lose this, like right, because they're nine. They've, they've lost two. This would be their third loss. Like it wouldn't be a discussion. I know, you know, just how it can be. I don't know. The, uh, the, uh, The complexion of the committee has changed a little bit in the last couple hours. We'll get to that. We'll get there because I think a team that, two teams that will care about Notre Dame losing, we can talk about at the end. And potentially one of them here, OU and Bama, number 11 OU at Bama. Before the show, I asked Dylan blindly what the line for this game was.

Dylan's an honorable man. I don't think he cheated, but he nailed it. Bama favored by six at home. that's about what i would have said that's that's fair um oh u abama and texas at uGA same weekend both everybody i mean that's like almost identical games as far as rankings go that's that's that's that's a lot of fun is that what time is that game at is that a night game i think their game is you have to what is it oh i'm sorry i'm sorry oh you at uj is 630 yeah i think ohubama is the 2.30 still late.

Okay. Yeah, I don't, I don't see OU being in this game. Yeah, I got Bama winning this one. I do think there's some value to coaching history here. I don't think Bama. I don't think it's, I agree with the outcome, but I do think that can't say his name, former Clemson, D.C., current O.U. Coach, don't know why. It's Brent Venables. I do think he's had success against Bama historically.

I don't think playing at Bama is that, like, scary of a proposition right now. So I just, I think it'll be close, but I think Bama does what they need to do to win. They pull, like, what George has done all year, which we'll still get to in a moment. So we'll see. Only stop in the Big Ten, number 21, Iowa, at number 17 USC. as our resident USC expert, apparently, as you've watched at least one more game than the rest of us. Friday night, dude.

The wife's gone. That's true. That's true. The wife was gone, man. I'm eating steak watching some West Coast football. Uh, yeah. I was,

uh, I watched, I watched Oregon, Iowa, uh, or at least the second half of that and you're like, okay, that game went exactly as I thought where it's just kind of like a,

uh, ugly little slug fest that, Oregon wins on the last drive Iowa's game USC I don't I just they don't they don't really impress me at all like they're a good team but that's about it and

I have to be they have to be wondering if their coach is going to be there in a couple months where would you go some jobs open I don't think he's leaving for that but that that train is kind of picked up a little bit and I'm just thinking like

that's interesting why would he you know what though that's the that's the thing anytime i do the why would he it's like why am i anytime i ask that i'm wrong so it's like yeah i do think there's something to the thought of like jobs can open up because somebody is successful or not but also can open up because you've got a booster who just hates the coach and that creates like an untenable background situation that like you know shit just happens adidas could take over your team's brand sponsor and like be like James Franklin's got to go because essentially that's what happened in Penn State like they were on the way to firing him. Adidas announced their

agreement their DPs are in the meetings their Nico Harrison walks in the meeting um correct for two reasons there and then it was like no James Franklin's got to fucking go that's just wild so who knows okay um and then lastly Texas at Georgia. Georgia's favored by six at home. Night game. Um, six 30 game. Let me give you the against the spread. Then I don't leave it for Dylan to, to run on. Georgia for, what I'm saying? Four and five against the spread. I wrote these notes. Texas, any guesses what they're against the spread record is? David, what's your guess? This season?

Bill might better, no better. Yes. Uh, oh, out of nine games. I'm going to say, I'm going to say five and four. Two and seven. I was going to guess three and six. He didn't let me guess. I was going to guess three and six. They've had close games that should not have been close games. And of course, they lost in Florida.

Oh, yeah. I was thinking Ohio State. Whatever. We don't need to go on my process. I was way off. Let me start by saying I think Georgia wins this game. I think it's going to be a close game. Georgia is not this scary Georgia of the past few years, though.

They don't get after the quarterback. They rank like 133rd in the country in sacks. Texas, on the other hand, is number one with 34 on the season. Their offensive line on the other side of the ball, okay. They're just okay. I think Texas is kind of finding their way a little bit on offense. they retooled the offensive line and they've kind of moved to a

a quick passing lateral passing game which it seemed to be working pretty well I think Arch is getting some confidence I think it's going to be a close game I don't think Texas wins the game but I think Georgia can be had

it's not the scary Georgia team of last year signs of life in the running game for Texas is nice you'd like to be able to run the ball on the road against a great opponent. Special teams. Special teams.

I'm feeling special teams will have something to say here. Yeah. As it has for Texas, I legitimately won them like two games. So, I don't know. Yeah, I wouldn't be shocked to see Texas win this game. I think it's going to be close. It's going to be fairly low scoring.

I think both defenses will show out. Yeah, I think what you said, Texas D-Line makes this, keeps this. interesting yeah and taff is back texas safety that kind of like the leader back there is getting both starting safeties back getting both starting yeah you know so that's that's huge i'm talking myself into the horns i don't know i don't want to get myself i don't want to give myself too much optimism here and be let down you know what i'll be you know what fuck it give me the give me the horns let me do it i'll take the i'll you know what i'll be the meme of the giant soldier taking all the

the fire as you're sleeping in bed you know i'm talking about randy that's me verbal meme um randy i sent you two images i want to ask the fellows a quick question see if they can identify for me which one is the quarterback for the university of georgia which one could be the head coach at any of the open head coaching football jobs in college football here soon assuming you want me to put both of them on at the same time if you can i don't know i did this like 10 seconds i didn't think through the production we got the tech you're all good i got let me give me a second here apologize okay okay that's okay that's okay that's okay that guy does commercial stockton oh my god the football quarterback man for georgia

yeah dude he does commercial real estate down on like second street austin he's wearing ons right now which one is Jimbo Fisher and which one's Gunner Stockton because I think they're the same person yeah they do look a lot of light all right I don't why are the noses equally like

Randy you got this look at Randy just doing it on the fly I think you know I'm going to say the black and white picture is the older guy and his name is you say Jimbo Fisher I wasn't listen to but man they do look very very similar. Wait, how did you make this connection or why? Because every time I see Gunner Stockton's

like widely stretched face in a helmet or post game, I'm like, that looks like Jimbo. So I don't know what Gunner's daddy might or might not look like, but I'm here to tell you it could be that feller there on the right. You want to know where Jimbo was about 21, 22 years ago. Correct. I want to know if the circus rolled through town or whatever team he was coaching at at that point him and bobby bowden were in town okay okay jay you got any any any feels on this game oh you want me actually give sports stakes now damn it gave you a paternity test yeah you enough with your politics i do agree i do think that texas is building at the right time i think early season losses are with the r um i do think that it's a reflection of just the volatility

of football. A lot of this comes from rooting for a team that walked into Wake 4 so that hadn't won an ACC game and lost to them. And the team I root for hadn't lost an ACC game or a conference game in 20 games. So I'm saying that to apologize for Texas losing at Florida. That's what I'm getting at there. I think shit happens. Games get away from you. And I don't think there's anything to be worried about with the loss at Ohio State. I think if you're a dialed in fan of Texas like Dylan or or others, of which there are many, you're going to see all the small flaws, but what you're going to miss is just the absolute clown show that is like 95% of college football teams, whether it be penalties, field goal kicking, like Notre Dame, I mentioned the other day,

against Boston College, use three field goal kickers. This is two months removed from them shit in the bed against Texas A&M for not having a field goal kicker. Like people joke about that Mike Leach halftime conference. that happened back in like 07 to find a kicker, but there aren't 130 competent college football kickers. They aren't 50. And so teams lose games for dumb shit like that.

So I think Texas is probably better than what the narrative and the record shows. And the similar vein, I don't think you can play, what do we say nine games, six one-score games against lesser competition. and that not be more of like, this is who you are. Fair. Granted, Texas was close against Mississippi State.

They got away with the win there. So, like, you can add that on their L list if you want. But Georgia's been doing that shit all season long. And it's propped up what people think of some teams in the SEC. Because they're,

oh, they hung with Georgia. It's like, oh, like you've pointed out, Dylan, like Georgia ain't Georgia. It ain't Georgia. So I don't know, man.

I'd feel good about putting money on Texas. mostly because if Georgia loses nobody's going to bat and I they'll put them in the fucking playoffs and that's going to drive me insane unless they also lose the Georgia Tech. If Texas loses it's fucking church

for their season and I don't think it should be but it's going to be probably unless Notre Dame also loses that's where that comes back into play. I'm seeing that if Texas loses just one more they will make the playoffs because that means they either

because you have A&M because they will be beating another top 10 team. Yeah, yeah, I forget about that. So you've got two shots at whatever, top five, whatever Georgia's, two shots of top five teams. So I still think you're going to end up in that position that Bama was last year, depending on the teams that are in. Bama was a three-loss team last year with an inexcusable loss to at that time Vanderbilt, a loss to Oklahoma and a loss to Ole Miss, I think. Those were their three last year. You had Boise State who was locked in, Arizona State who got locked in conference championship week, Clemson, who got locked in.

and then you had SMU who had only lost to BYU during the season, and BYU was number 12. It always comes back to SMU, but I do think it's relevant in this conversation because Texas is Alabama from last year in this situation with one loss. SART career coming off a by, 13 and 4 at Texas, 4 and 2. Georgia at home is pretty unbeatable. They're like 35 and 2 or something.

That might not be exactly right, but they don't lose at home. I want you to see, I want you to look at like what their competitive games are on their schedule. Georgia and Bama did this a lot too. Georgia doesn't play a bunch of their marquee games at home though. Or like when they're playing their big teams, it's a conference championship week. They're playing them in Mercedes-Benz. It's a bowl game. Their home games, you might get a trip from Florida or not in Florida.

Florida, they play a neutral say, yeah. Yeah. So like in your big rivalry games for them, they get some at home, but the majority of their home games are not their top opponents. This is me trying to not try not to let you guys convince me that Texas has a good chance to win this game. I'm just trying to. Hey, I'm on the hill. You stay, you stay down there and you watch our, you watch our six. I'm up here on the hill. And I'll let you know what it's like to come up. Man. I think I've, I think I've sold myself on it. I'm genuine about all. I do think that. I do think that. I would take Texas plus six, for sure. Watch for, okay, see what that number is on whatever, underdog, whatever. Arch rushing yards.

Okay. Arch is going to run. Arch is going to have, he's going to get some gashes on the, on the field. You think so? Some gash plays, some chunk plays. This is going to be, this could be, this is signature arch game. I think I'm talking myself. I'm excited.

I hope you're right and hope he learns out of slide. Because, you know, I'm not Texas guy. but I I I'm feeling it all right don't clip this all right right give me over under on backup quarterback snaps taken in this game three and a half I'll take the over oh I won't predict why that could be blowout that could be I don't know I left my helmet in the locker room doesn't matter but I've got a situation I suspect we're going to have a situation where like the depth that quarterback is going to play a factor I don't know who wins that battle but give me three and half over.

Speaking of the college football playoff, the athletic director at Baylor, Mack Rhodes, who is the chairman of the playoff committee? Is that his formal title? I think he's just called the chair, the committee chair. Woke. It's just what they call it academics, his committee chair. Mack Rhodes, he is taking a leave of absence from his duties as AD and has stepped down from the playoff committee um personal reasons we know it is not a title nine thing um nothing student

related nice but so it came out last week and one of the there's a guy who writes for outkick who's been all over this um but came out last week that there was an altercation on the sidelines of the Arizona State Baylor game between Mac Roads again who is the AD who is frequently on the sidelines you want to talk about that we could have a whole other conversation about that's been a problem once this this year too he had an altercation with the player at some point this season as well yeah that's what I'm saying so uh yeah Michael Trigg the tight end tight-in 1-A-1 and 1B, Ole Miss transfer, left the team at Ole Miss,

came to Baylor, has had an incredible season. It's like every other week has like, you know, top 10 highlight. I was wearing the wrong color shirt under his jersey. And like, Mac Roads apparently dressed him down on the sideline. And you're looking, and like, to the Baylor coaching staff's credit,

like tight-ins coach and I don't know if it was a random, but whoever else was like, no, we're not doing that. Went over. I was like, dude, you can't be doing this to our guy. First of all, he's like arguably our best player. What a bizarre thing to get it worked up about. Yeah, like very, very. And to Triggs, in Triggs defense, like, kind of came in with like, okay, well, what happened at Ole Miss?

Didn't last there. He had some issues there. Did we lose KJ? No. Oh, okay. Your head was incredibly still. he's poised and he's been nothing but like awesome

and yeah so that was weird and you hear that and you're like that's very weird the Arizona State game was like a month ago maybe five weeks ago and then this camp comes out there might be a second issue second altercation that happened that there's nothing that we don't know what that is

or who it involved but it's enough for him to have to step down from the playoff committee and also like take a leave of absence for personal reasons from Baylor just never a normal can't just have a normal time in Waco it's just always some shit man like I was seeing a report here that they were looking back through they were looking through the records and they realized oh he kept a veranda employed and they were like yeah we didn't catch that initially yeah that's another thing I mean there there is apparently a line of and I'm getting a lot of this info from family members who are Baylor alums that are more dialed in and more into the program than I am. And they're like, yeah, the big money donors, they want a clean house.

They want roads gone, Aranda gone. But the reporter I was talking about that does the is covering all this is Trey Wallace at Trey Wallace. So it looks like we're getting the Arkansas AD who's going to be the new college football playoff

chair. Okay. Good. so it's not it's not ward manual who was the chair from last year it'll be interesting because that will mean he will have to um which i think a part of the committee's rules is they have to like abstain themselves from any conversations where there's a direct um conflict or a secondary conflict for bias purposes what that means is um if you have a family member who's employed at any position at another institution they're just they're discussing discussing Texas's rank, and they're on that 13, 12, like, slot. If his son was at UT, he would have to step away from the conversation.

Okay. This guy specifically, again, always comes back to SMU, his son happens to be, like, the business development executive for SMU. Magic Bullet. In their non-football sports, basically. But there was a big article in like, hey, here's all the conflicts in Arkansas guys was SMU and then he has some other ones which again when you're talking about whether or not a team should be in doesn't matter for SMU they got to win a conference change too that's not that's the

one I'm getting out here but his other ties I think another one is Texas so going back to that Bama conversation and whatever the other one is like that is an SEC voice that's going to be a little bit lessened okay interesting all right well well there you go just plain politic here verbal altercation physical altercation we'll find out and then in the coming days what happened what went on there with mac roads i got a little bit of ball ball thing if you want to hear about he's got a little bit of a ball thing yeah he's got a little bit of a ball this is this covers a little bit of a ball bridge the gap between me and you dave a little uh texas politics a little uh peru ex coach are you aware of uh the texas man that has been indicted for

making terroristic threats to Louisville head coach Jeff Brom, his staff, QB, Miller, Moss, and Brahms family. Who is this fellow? I sold the headline. Yes. His name is, I think, Brian Mandel. He's facing... Brian what?

Brian Mandel, M-A-N-D-E-L of Corpus Christi. He faces six counts of terroristic threatening and one count of extortion of more than $10,000 after the lost, overtime loss the other day. I say this because not only is he just a Texas man, he is on the planning commission of Corpus Crispi and his father just releases candidacy for the 34th district of the Texas 34th congressional district. Do you think that you're going to win? Do you think you're going to win the candidacy when your son's a terrorist?

How'd that filter, how'd that mental filter work there, David, when he said, releases candidacy and you're like, you're starting to top. You're like, okay, his name's not Abbott. And so you're working down like, what race are we talking to here? At least at 34th. And we're like, wait, this is state house. You're like, okay. Yeah.

I was open for like lieutenant governor. I was open for like, right. Yeah, I mean, okay, that's tough. That's a tough, that's a tough scene. You said Corpus Christi. Yeah. So the actual guy that made the threats was, he was serves as vice chair of the city of Corpus Christi's planning commissions.

It's the second time you said Corpus Crispi. Corpus Christi's a dope little nickname, though. Corpus of Crister Krispies. So he was working the rigs from three to midnight. And he popped off. Oh, Corpus Christi Bayway. Of course, Corpus Christi is a terrible cereal. That's man cereal right there.

It's bad. Sorry. Hot and ready. Yeah, you got to think this guy's not serving as the vice chair. Man, I really thought that was going to be a Purdue tie end. Now, Jeff Brom, man. Jeff Brom, former head coach. I had to find that in my brain, too.

Yeah, that's the only reason. I know about it because people were talking about it on on Facebook and wishing him well. But yeah, six counts of terroristic threats. That's too many counts. They don't say what they were. Some might say one is too many.

Yeah. He's a serious man. You got to think that he had a lot of money on the line, right? Like, I feel like that's the only reason that he's making threats to a Louisville head coach. Yeah. You got to, it's a money play. Extortion over $10,000.

Gosh, dude. Catch me just out here not trying to do any extortion in my Tocovus boots I'm just trying to do some flossing, some stunting. Yeah. It was an awkward segue, but I had to do it. No, yeah, you got a stunt in those bad boys with their toes, of course, of course, pointed west. Of course. Of course.

There, ready? We got the bug. You kind of had such a bad time. He was finishing a note. You saw that. Anywhere worth going. Start that from the top. Good boots.

find your perfect pair with Tocovas. We got to get KJ some Tocovas. What size are you? I'm with bad boys, some 12s, 12 and a half if you need to. All right. Because, you know, Tocovus crafts quality Western boots for everyone. From general ranchers, generational ranchers as well, and lifelong cowboys, to first-time boot buyers.

Tocovas boots are handcrafted with over 200 meticulous steps for broken in comfort right out of the box. And the in-store experience, I just like going there. Sometimes I just go there and hang out. And they're like, are you good? You want, you want like a drink or something? I'm like, yeah, I do.

So I just go there and get an ice cold beer and hang out. Best smelling store in the world and a cocktail. And you leave with a damn fine pair of boots. Bring it home this holiday season with a gift from the West. To COVID's, you'll find comfort and joy in their exact size. You slip these things on and you're like, wait a minute. Are these like used boots? Are these pre-owned?

Because they feel like they've been worn many, many times. and they haven't. They're brand new. That's just how they are out of the box. I went out and bought a pair of my own. What? Very recently. Those black ones?

Yep. Yep. I freaking love them. They're so comfortable and so well made, you can win right out of the store like they're already broken at. Yeah. You can get you the Dillons, too. It's a popular.

Oh, we still got open jobs. We do have open jobs. Any buzz there? Any buzz on the way? James Franklin in Arkansas, I'm seeing his name leaked as a potential... I think that's a good fit. Can I say why?

I think that'd be a win for Arkansas. Arkansas. I'm going to say some things, and this is a guy who was a fan of Arkansas for a season, who might be a fan going forward if his niece chooses to go to school there. Arkansas is not in the position to be like, man, we don't want James Franklin. Yeah, he's all right, but he can't win the big game. They're not in that position. But it is like a team you can go recruit at. You got Texas right there. I don't know how James Franklin has ever recruited Texas, but you can recruit the South. James Franklin's a good coach. I agree. I'd be

But you know there's some experience I'd be excited if I were an Arkansas fan in the area They should be But you know there's some programs LSU comes to mind Where they're like, no Yeah

We think we think very highly of ourselves And Lane Kiffin's name Of course is being floated out For LSU And for Florida Ole Miss plays Florida this weekend Which is an interesting

Little dynamic there I think he stays at Ole Miss I think he's in a really good situation there Has he come out and like been like, I love Ole Miss. I'm staying here. I'm not considering anything or just done weird tweets. Not to my knowledge.

Why doesn't he just do that? Because it's Lane Kiffin and he kind of likes the attention. He's a little bit of a diva. Yeah, exactly. That plus his agent, like, is probably like, do not say anything. You only cost yourself money by saying anything. You can tell your recruits all you want. He's a Jimmy sexting guy.

He knows what he's doing. He knows how to play the game. Yeah. Other than I haven't really heard much. Oklahoma State is just going to wait until see how the chips fall and then pick up wherever they can get. I don't know.

I would be surprised if the at-large bid doesn't get resolved and if it does not include UNT, which ACC and the American conference races are equally entertaining. U&T was announced or was like had announced that their board was meeting to discuss an increase in salary

for the head football coach Eric Moore. as well as the staff, I have not seen an announcement, but I did see that like byline right before they lost their first game. There's still a one-loss team. They're far and away the most productive offense passing offense out there. I'd be surprised to see him not tied to that position more aggressively once that AAC title or AAC at large bid is resolved. Because if it's not un t i see him bouncing pretty quickly i'm sorry if it's not un t in the playoff i see him bouncing quickly if it is u and t in the playoff i wouldn't be surprised to see like i don't know

you could bump that up a level and say like why wouldn't arkansas give him a shout kj do you know eric morris we played on the team together at the same time yeah i'm gonna look i wouldn't say like i could call him right now but yeah okay I was his Texas Tech at the same time. He was Danny Amandola's backup. That's right. By far, the quickest human being I've ever seen run, including Cole Beasley, including like Manuel Sanders.

Eric Morris made human body movements quicker than any human being should be able to. He was insane. And he would do it with a dip in his mouth, all at like 5'5. That's extreme Texas tech behavior. Nicknamed the elf. Mm-hmm. Okay. Yeah.

He was a huge. he was a huge leach guy huge that's okay i knew he played i wasn't sure what what his connection was to leach and i didn't realize it was playing okay cool yeah so the um last thing on eric morris they put up the stat of who was it who just put up a shit ton of yards oh messmaker his quarterback at u and t put up like 600 and some odd yards and that was just behind um guy with face paint from Mississippi State, can't think of his name. Shaping? And then shape it.

Not shaping this year, but the one before that, who's there, Will, whatever, who's there for, like, four street years. But he would do, like, big Jackson Dart level crosses under his eyes. But he was number two, and number one was a quarterback from Washington State. Eric Morris was the, like, quarterback coach or O.C. For all three of those top three, like, highest yards in a college football game. The dude, he's legit. But then again,

Sonny Cumbi was that type of guy. And he hadn't been able to win at Louisiana Tech for a fucking decade. Damn. Forgot about Sunny Cumbie. I really saw that, like, taking the Sunny Dikes route. Like, he replaced Sunny Dikes at La Tech when Sunny Dikes got there after Cal and he never really

continued that path. Okay. I'm just thinking, like, if you're at U.N.T. do you go do you make a jump to like oaky state i mean like yeah if you're eric morsey yeah yeah i just think okloma state's a tough place to win right now i know i have no i've no i don't know you just never really hurt last like two or three years you never heard anything like good about the program outside you know um as far as like

their ability to pay and recruit fundraise i'm not saying he's this but if you could be the firebrand persona you don't have to be gundy but you do not know that they can market the hell out of that team all you need to be in the big 12 right now is what Arizona level which is like just behind the actual competitive teams right now big 12's kind of mess but what would you say it's like the order tech BYU Utah Arizona State TCU and Arizona are in that like what the hell happened to you all you got to do is be in that section have one good year and you're fucking you're good TCU I'll tell you what the hell happened to them, Matt Campbell.

Oh, there you go. There's another team. Like, what the hell's going on right now? I don't know. Section of three. I don't know. So, yeah. I don't know about you, but have you had a chance to, because I have not, to see

UNT? No. I have not, I do not see UNT. Not this month at least. Don't take a sip off to that, dude. You should be ashamed of you. Not this March at least. Mother's is crispy.

You know it's this season. I try to make a lot more water. It's important. Put me on James Franklin for Stanford watch. He's an East Coast guy. That doesn't add up. But he's been at Vanderbilt. He's been at Penn State.

Those are high learning institutions. UCLA possibly as well. Like he needs to be a place where like being sharp, being on point, being smart, and like being a good dude matters. And I would say UCLA is on that short list for me. I don't know that Arkansas might be on the other end of that spectrum. what do you mean behind Sam Pittman

Brett Bilema and what you might call it Patrino I put them on the other side of that spectrum so are you saying

they just need a decent man they need they need a decent man they wouldn't know how to treat them how about that okay don't go to our dinners though we only got mediocre men

oh yeah that's right there it is Eight mediocre men. All right. Weekend talk? Let's talk about our weekend and fun. Bro, let's go out this weekend. There's a crazy event happening.

Because I should have put this on the rundown. I did it at Texas State original. Yeah, we saw it in person at Texas State. But yeah, I think we may have discussed it a little bit. Started in Stillwater, speaking of, I think. Started in Stillwater, correct. And I thought it was beautiful then. I'm going to put this up there with field brushing.

Tinfoil hat thought in both of these really quick. I got to think ESPN's behind us. Oh, yeah? Okay. Because I've seen, you see the shots of their like anchor in that area of the stadium. like with the dudes. I don't think the dudes start up there and they're doing it for so long and the anchor makes their way up there.

I definitely think maybe there's one person, but then there's like a producer's like, hey, so you guys want to be on TV? Come on. Take them off. Come on. They get like some guy who's,

girl's gone wild for a couple years. Come on. Guys. Take a lot. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Joe found a job.

Can't think it was the last name though. Anyhow. This weekend. um it's one of the last few weekends before i feel like i'm in the thick of actual holiday things uh so what i typically do around this time is i will look to go to either chicago or milwaukee neither's plan has been like fully firmed up but we're on the precipice if you will of a bathroom renovation you know big flex um stole that tushy so you know potentially potentially uh part of that's going to be going to get some lighting

And there are quite a few options over Milwaukee way. So if I do go to Milwaukee, I will be doing Stone Creek. But, yeah, loose plans for Milwaukee trip, a little southeast Wisconsin trip for me and the fam. Hey, if you do choose Milwaukee and you do have a minute to go by Stone Creek, let me know. I'll shoot our guys over there, a little message, man. Tell them treat you right. Yeah. Tell me, you know a guy.

They've got like 10 locations and they all look pretty dope, pretty dope. Oh, I didn't know that had that many. I should know that. Yeah. One's only like 45 minutes from, but I will head to the factory location as that is closest to the lighting warehouse that I'm considering going to. So yeah, real exciting things. Going to a lighting warehouse in Milwaukee. How about that, fellas?

Let's go. Oh, damn. He's flexing. Damn. He's him. Mr. Strong. He's really like that.

He's like that. Yeah, double up cup here. Oh, damn. Hit that apple cider vinegar right in your face. All right. Does that's not bleach? No, renovations haven't started yet. Demo hasn't started yet.

All right. Dylan. Got a little camping trip on the books. Picking up Parks from School Friday, and we're going straight to Enchanted Rock doing a night out there. We were going to do two, but he has a playoff baseball game Saturday, which I'm all in favor of

because I get back in time to watch Texas play Georgia. His game is at 4 o'clock, round of the playoffs pretty excited about it yeah can get back at hopefully they get the dub there and then uh the horns get the dub later on that evening that's pretty much all i got man out to that pretty quiet sunday but yeah camping trip man i'm excited buddy i'm looking at the weather forecast for you right now it's gonna be warm crystal clear but warm it might get up to 80 but you're camping overnight also a 60 fireband it's a little dry out here but we can use propane Oh, what if, and I hope those, uh, well, if the northern lights are sticking around.

That'd be sick. Dude. That's all I got. Randall? Me? Uh, coming off two very big weekends, Mexico and the run fair. So I am really trying to do as little as possible. I still have like my Halloween decorations and shit up.

I'm just trying to catch up on laundry, chores, put all that shit away. Dan had maybe talked about going to see the fights. at a bar or something like that but reality I think that I'm being a very 31 year old responsible just trying to be relaxing and catch up on shit maybe finish my audio book who knows some Harry Potter fanfic

no no dungeon crawler car which I already said book five of mine or something like that dungeon crawler carl yes yo you're doing too much I think I'm on book of the year this year what's Dave got somewhere it did I don't know

And that's about it. Well, let's run it back then. The weekly run-it back, where we talk about what we already talked about, week-long addition. The eight mediocre men dinner has legs. Mercury is currently in Gatorade. Multi-zone thermostats are already a thing, so Dylan will not yet become a billionaire. Nice nachos, pussy.

Rennie thinks Italian food is just fine, which is a horrendous take. Just fine. Dave might stained glass the whip. You can't stack Wash 20 promo code on top of Robeck's 20% Opelac Friday sale, but you can reuse the code if you use it already. KJ doesn't know about Jimmy Hats. KJ. tried to observe the northern lights,

but it was just a fuck-ass, clear-ass sky. Dave was going to let that slate marinate. Randy thinks 9-11 is hilarious. I don't know if that's... Randy and Zuck are the same height and also both possessed the nerd gene. That's not true. And finally, Corpus Crispi. And that concludes, run it back. You know, I heard it the first time and I was like, I'm not going to jump on him. Not nice. Second time, you got a second time. Corpus Krispies.
