all right we're back circling back podcast it's monday my name is willow freeze to my right david ruff let's go boys Circling Back podcast. It's Monday. My name's Will LaFreece. To my right, David Ruff. Let's go, boys. Stop. That's not how you want to kick off the week, man. Dude, I think it is. Let's go, Darn. What's up, Dylan?

What's up, guys? Happy to be back. I mean, did you go somewhere? Yeah, I went to Nashville. Oh, okay. Yeah, you knew that. You say that like you missed an episode. Like, you didn't miss an epi. That's true, but I missed you guys, and I was out of town, and I'm glad to be back home.

You were gone for like two days. We probably wouldn't have seen you. Look, I'm back in the saddle. I'm happy to be here, David. Honestly, I didn't even know you were gone. If you hadn't been posting stories, I wouldn't have even known. That's rude. You are being rude.

Dylan was in such vacation mode on Thursday before heading to this bachelor party that he sent before noon on Thursday an email to Roback that said, have a great weekend. I did. I was like, Dylan, you can't send that before noon on a Thursday. Here's the thing. I make that mistake. Since we don't work on Fridays anymore. I'll just pull back the credit.

I work on Fridays. Okay. We don't really work. We don't record on Friday anymore. I'll just pull back the credit. I work on Friday. Okay, we don't really work. We don't record on Friday. Friday's our easy day of the week. Friday's our easy day of the week. And so sometimes the weekend kind of starts on Thursday. And that was unintentional. I was thinking in my head it was Friday

and I was saying have a great weekend. But then Will pointed out that it was Thursday before lunch and I was telling him to have a great weekend. I didn't mean to flex. You snuck it all over the road back in the 40s. I wasn't trying to stunt. But yeah, I did that. Hey, can I give a shout before we really get into it?

I think you'd be messed up if I said no right now. I want to say thank you to everybody who participated in the first, the inaugural AMA on Reddit. You guys familiar with this? It's an Ask Me Anything. Yeah. Dave was a grind boy on Friday. How'd it go? Oh, wow. On Reddit. Wow. You guys familiar with this? It's an Ask Me Anything. Yeah. Dave was a grind boy on Friday. How'd it go?

Oh, that was Friday. Couldn't have gone better, I don't think. I think it went really well. I didn't know what to expect because I don't have a sense for how many people, one, use Reddit, two, know how to use Reddit because it can be intimidating for just a lay person. I don't think we've ever had a comment thread on our subreddit get to 307 comments before.

That's pretty good. Pretty good. So thank you. I set the bar high, I will say. But I'm very looking... Who's doing it next? Is it you? I'm going to do this Friday. So you're going to get like double. It's just going to snowball.

I'm going gonna do it this friday mark my words i'll be there okay you should set a time limit going in okay because i looked up and i've been going for well over an hour i feel like you're live blogging when you do it i haven't done that the time does fly i was listening to a pod i was actually listening to our patreon while doing it wow but um yeah everybody was cool did you sorry sorry about anything uh you know risque or controversial or yeah i told him your cat name no you didn't i saw that someone asked but it was not answered thank you no i did not do you know the name dave yeah i do actually oh you did he found out i forgot how you found out the hell

dude i think you just told me i'm gonna i'm gonna find out no i'm a man of the people i'm gonna find out when they find out you're in this with them yep you're gonna be just as disappointed oh you're all the bad it's just it's just embarrassing i i it's the top comp i haven't been i haven't been building this up by the way i will say this i don't think it's i don't even think it's embarrassing it is it is okay someone asked how do you sleep at night knowing that you've routinely lied to the patrons and pushed pushed the goalposts back time and time again when you wrote back the tape well i told him dylan's cat you guys say three and 4k i never agreed to it that was just what you guys proposed was pulled to that person who commented that you bro don't put that on me

don't you're aiming that at me and you need to move that the other way. This is on Dylan. I've made no promises or guarantees, sir. Even in the tape that Randy pulled for us, not the dog Randy, our film guy. No, he pulled different. Video guy Randy. I never say, okay, let's do it at three. Let's do it at four.

I never say that. Whatever, dude. But thank you to everyone who participated. That was fun. You can go check it out. That's the cool thing about an AMA. It's evergreen. It's evergreen content.

Yeah, I'm going to do it Friday. More details to follow. I cannot wait. By the time it's my turn, all the questions have been answered. I have another thank you to all the people who filled out our survey. I think probably at the end of today or tomorrow morning, we're probably going to take the survey down. We have a very good sample size. If you want to fill it out and you haven't done so already, go to washmedia.com slash survey.

It's 35 questions. You can respond to any of you want. It helps us greatly. We're going to use that information to help you, the listeners, get some better ads. We're trying to curate sponsorships here. Yeah. We want relevant ads to you that you can use. We want to tailor them, custom crafted.

That's what we want. So if you go to washmedia.com slash survey. Dylan's so excited to be back. I am. so if you go to washmedia.com slash survey dylan's so excited to be back yeah i am dylan's got like dylan's got like bachelor party face i slept so that's not it's not a compliment i slept so hard last night i was just exhausted when i got back when the plane landed i went home i changed i went straight to the gym to just sit in the sauna and just sweat it out i heard i heard when the plane landed you collapsed is that true i did i did and then i went to the sauna i clapped in there too i needed to man what time did you get back uh landed at around three

i was at the gym by four maybe you sat in the sauna well that's at the gym did you even go home or you go straight to the gym i went home first i didn't let me drop my stuff and change and then word split word it was great i had something but i lost it i also have bachelor party face and i didn't even have a bachelor party it was a low-key weekend of dave in austin texas this weekend i picked up a sixer yesterday i don't know if you guys saw this yeah yeah i was tracking dave on social all weekend this my mans went hard. I loved it. I'm really into vlogging, Dave, by the way. Yeah, you've seen this? It's a vlog. Yeah, it's like a video blog, right?

Is that how they got the word? It's like a video and a blog combined? Yeah, they just take the V from video and just replace it with a V. Or is it a voice blog? No. I think a voice blog is technically a podcast. Are we vloggers as well? Yeah.

Yeah, I picked up a sixer. And for those wondering, I cut through half of those things. What? Dude, no. Three beers? Yeah, I had one. That's three times your normal amount. I had really bad anxiety yesterday because we had a game six closeout game at home at 2 o'clock.

Didn't really work out for the good guys. But that's okay. Game 7 tomorrow night, so I'll probably be picking up another sixer. This is not Spahn, but what kind of beer was it? It's the Four Corners out of Dallas, and I will tell you... I've seen those cans around.

They're good looking. Let me tell you about these cans. They definitely catch your eye. Oh, it's the El Grito. It's a lager. It is an aesthetically pleasing clan. I've seen the can, and I've been like, that interests me. Nobody heard what El Grito. It's a lager. Ah, I see. It is an aesthetically pleasing clan. It's a good, I've seen the can and I've been like,

that interests me. Nobody heard what I just said. That's a fun beer. Did you say clan? I did. I misspoke. I apologize. Yeah, we're not doing

clan stuff on this podcast. No, we're not. I got to drink Yingling over the weekend, which is always a real treat for me. Cool. So like, just a generic beer.

Yeah, awesome. Yeah, well, you can't get it here, Dave. And so, Yeah, there's a lot of, you can't get it here, Dave. Yeah, there's a lot of beers you can't get in Austin. When in Nashville, you know. I'm not saying Yingling's overrated, but if it's on the menu, it's not a go-to. It's just a really good crisp. It's crisp for a cheap lager.

It's a really good cheap lager. It is good. I had my first one. I really enjoyed that. Someone sent some to the office, and that's when I had my first one. It is good. It is good. It's a cheap beer. I really enjoyed them. I sent them to the office and that's when I had my first one. It is good. It is good. It's a cheap beard.

Let's not try to make it something it's not. Okay, so Nashville's got a lot of live music. Did they perform too? The Yingling Twins?

Yeah. Yeah, they did. Before we get to Dylan's Nashville review for Bachelor Parties, let's talk about our good friends over at

Quip. Of course. Quip. You know I friends over at Quip. Of course. Quip. You know I travel with my Quip. Are you aware of that? I'm sorry. I just talked right over you. Go ahead.

Quip's got an easy way to start. Your brushing habits. Yeah. Just two minutes twice a day can help you pave the way for a healthier mouth and mind. And now the whole family can get refreshed with Quip. The new kids Quip has the same two minute timer and guiding pulses as our original version. No childish gimmicks. So they can brush just like a grown-up.

Big. You going to scoop one for the homie? The homie does not have one yet, and wow. I hope he's not listening. These toothbrushes are incredible. They've got sensitive sonic vibrations for an effective clean that's gentle on your sensitive gums. These new ones, they've got kid-friendly features like a small brush head, watermelon anti-cavity toothpaste, which your boy might low-key scoop.

I like myself some watermelon. But a lot of people brush too hard. These other toothbrushes are just too abrasive. I got sensitive gums. We all know that. I'm not sensitive yet. If my gums were a wrapper, they'd be Drake. Interesting.

Think about that. And up to 90% of people don't brush for the full two minutes or don't even clean evenly they just focus on one part of their mouth Quip's here to help that it also declutters your sink that's my favorite part about it oh yeah you can stick it to the mirror you put it in the holder

It's money, baby. Love it. Oh, man. All rightylan you were in nashville this past weekend i was like we said we wouldn't have known you were gone but you were apparently gone again again you don't have to keep driving that point home because it's quite rude but dude literally no one missed you okay you were no i i heard you yeah i still hear you yeah i went to nashville uh shots to my buddy mikey michael uh getting married in two weeks and yeah it was a great time i'll give you like a high level just overview of of everything if you want and then y'all can just fire away with questions or whatever i don't know

how you want to do this yeah uh nashville going in people kept saying like it's a lot like austin right all the live music and they have you know the bar districts just like austin has you know six street and all that i kind of hate that comparison for any town i i you know what i mean like people like talk about denton yeah like oh not because of the bar scene but like oh it's kind of like austin's like a smaller austin's coming up yeah and you go there it's like oh this is nothing like austin what are you fucking talking about i feel like you're setting the city up for failure. I thought my experience in Nashville, like, I thought it was a fair comparison.

Nashville is just like Austin. They're the same city. I'm not kidding. It's weird. Is it insufferable with, like, the, just like the people our age, the millennial scum? So we went to Broadway, which is a strip of bars, live music in every one of them. Like that's where, I mean, I think Dierks Bentley has a bar there and a bunch of, you know, big names. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, Dierks. And it, I mean, it's a little bit brighter than 6th Street because they have, the signage is kind of like a mini, like Vegas-esque a little bit. But it is 6th Street. It is wall-to-wall people, probably a lot younger than I am, just like on 6th Street. It is wall-to-wall people, probably a lot younger than I am, just like on 6th Street. You know, early to mid-20-year-olds. Yeah, you told us about them. No, I didn't.

No, I didn't. It's just like 6th Street. Is it true they called you the Nashville Predator when you were there? Wow, that is aggressive. We're not doing these jokes right now. We're not doing these jokes right now. We're not doing these jokes right now. It just came to me. I don't know.

Sorry. Anyway. Sorry for all my Preds fans. I mean, it is a lot like Austin and the live music. I don't know why Austin, after going there, why Austin is called the live music capital of the world because I'm not kidding. Nashville has so much more.

You're going back. Okay. So much more. Dude, you need to apologize to Dan or Jester. Why? Because you snapped at him when he said it was the live music capital of the world. Because that's what it's called. I'm not making that part up.

That's not an opinion. That is a nickname of Austin. It's the live music capital of the world. Let me say this. I have never been to Nashville, so it's pretty rich for me to just make this judgment. It's kind of like where the Game of Thrones take it. He'd never seen it. I don't know what take you're talking about, but go on.

I don't either. But from your description, it almost feels like it's watered down like there's so much music that you're getting like like me and a couple buddies from college are getting our band back together and they're gonna let us go play like todd's barn grill yeah i mean there are some it's everyone that's trying to make it right like even our uber driver like yeah i'm a musician i'm trying to is it big. Is it mainly country, Americana? Or, I mean, is there a diverse? It's mostly country, but they mix it up.

They play some pop and stuff too. But at one point, so every bar on Broadway, I believe, there's live music in every single one of them. We were at Tootsie's. I posted a video from there. And it's a multi-level bar. There are three stages. On the bottom floor, it's a multi-level bar. There are three stages on the bottom floor,

the mid one, and the top. And they were all occupied by musicians at one point. It was insane. Three live acts in one bar at one time. No bars are doing that.

No bars are doing that. Wow. Did y'all see my buddy got on stage? Yeah, he was electric. So they pass around a cup, tips for the band whatever yeah

and my buddy pulls out a hundred dollar bill he goes I'll drop this in if I can sing a song and they were like okay he does this all the time

like he he loves it he has a few in his repertoire but that's definitely one of them Backstreet how did he know

that the band would know Backstreet Boys I don't know okay wait wait wait so he does this often? he tries to does he have like a vocal background?

he can sing he can sing yeah he knew the words very well I think I know the words to a lot of songs but if you put me on stage with no you know karaoke screen I'm not hitting every single one yeah he got up to the stage and they're like we don't have a karaoke screen he goes oh that's fine they're like so you know every word of the song he said yeah they're like okay let's go his

timing was perfect on all of it it was really i had to cut off the last part of the video because some drunk idiot bumped the shit out of me from behind and like totally screwed up the video so it cut off but like his big like crescendo moment i missed it it was sick were the uh ladies going cray ladies were going cray we were very popular after he did they throw their brassieres at the stage we were very popular yes they they threw their underwear at the stage no they're brassieres did Did you have hot chicken? Ooh. I did have hot chicken. How'd it go? The place, I forgot what the place is called.

Matty B's? Matty, uh. It's definitely not Matty B's, right? No, it's Hattie B's. Yeah, Hattie B's. Hattie B's, yeah. Yeah, that's where we, how'd you know? I think that's like the most famous hot chicken.

No, Matty B's place. That's where I had it too. Matty B's place is just a place, just a bunch of steel beams stacked up. No, it's funny because that place, it was so crowded, we couldn't get a seat inside. We had to order ahead, pick it up, and then we're going to bring it to the bar

and eat there, and they wouldn't let us bring it in. Too hot. So we had to eat it on the street. Yeah, they didn't want the place to burn down. We had to eat it on the street. It was bad. So I've heard takes on Nashville chicken,

the hot chicken thing. And everybody's like, I don't know if it was good or not. It's on nashville chick the hot chicken thing and then everybody's like i don't know if it was good or not it's just so hot that you can't even tell and are those people just being like just weak as hell or can you actually be like oh this has flavor and it's not just burning my mouth it was really good but we're also drinking and i'll be honest like it tastes the exact same as the the hot chicken food truck in Austin. So there's one in Austin at the Star Bar. It's called Tumbler 22. It's good, but I also consider it a day-ender.

If you eat it and you stay out, you're looking for trouble. You're going to have a bad time. The last time I ate it, I went home immediately following eating it, and it was like 5.30. Yeah. I was just like, oh, I can't drink after this. I'm going to die. Exactly right.

But it's really good and I had Hattie B's and it was pretty much the exact... To me, it tasted like the exact same. I don't know if there's different levels, but I feel like if you drench something in sauce to that point, it's pretty much going to taste pretty similar. It was good. I don't really know how many

ways you can do it. Do they give you ranch? Do you do the ranch thing? They give you some options. The one I chose, it was their signature dipping proprietary blend yeah you tweeted about the just the insane amount of bachelorette parties oh my god which is i mean coming from austin coming from austin that it's quite being shocked by it is crazy shocking i'm not kidding it was shocking so austin if for those who't know, is also a major bachelorette party destination. Bachelor parties are harder to identify because it's just a group of dudes. Girls have like the sashes and matching shirts and all that shit.

When you know, you know. Oh, my God. So Austin, there are a ton of them, right? So we see them out all the time when we make it out. out all the time when we when we make it out nashville at at that bar at tootsies the main one we spent the most time in on saturday night i'm not exaggerating when i say there were probably 30 bachelorette parties in that bar while we were there 30 they just every every five seconds they by it's nuts so did you yeah you posted a photo oh i did post a photo yeah you're sending me that photo and then you deleted it and it was like what the hell when you deleted it i was like i thought something went down oh yeah no here's what happened so we're i don't want to expose you we

were at a bar called losers it's called Did they name it after you? Yeah. It's pretty funny. Got them. Did they, though? Yeah, they named it. Got them. No, it's Chainsmokers and Boozers. And there were, I don't know, 40 bachelorette parties passing through at any given moment. And one of them stopped by.

They were doing one of their little scavenger hunt things. So you got to get guys to do different things, take pictures. And they said, we have to take a picture with one of you, if you don't mind, and you have to post it to your story. I was like, okay. Oh, so these weren't backers. I'm glad that they chose. They were not backers.

Oh, see, I thought, I was kind of thinking like, part of my scavenger hunt was we're going to find a random group. Dylan. That worked out. It's kind of funny that like, I mean, they could have chosen somebody that had like 50 followers and they ended up choosing you who had to like expose yourself to all these other people. Well, I was the only one not wifed up in the whole group so like oh you got to do it with dylan yeah

like okay that's that's how that happened and so they said we you had we had to get a picture with you to post it to your own story and then we had to get proof of it and then if you want you can delete it i was like okay not a big deal and so um i posted it it's just me with i don't know five girls or whatever and they took a picture of me posting it. And then once it was live, I was like, there's no context in this photo. It was just weird. Weird leaving it up. So I took it down.

I bet most people thought that they were fans, listeners. But why would I post that to my story? Just a stunt. Like, look, man, I'm out here. I'm out here getting my shit. Low-key tool. Yeah. That is true.

Like, you're not totally a tool, but like low-key. I did run into a bunch of backers did they know who you like did you be like hey by the way like i normally would charge money to post by the way i'm famous and you don't even realize you're taking pictures yeah this is like a five thousand dollar photo you just wrote did you did you said you saw backers yeah did you did they have you buy beers for them zero zero zero came up to you and and said hey i'm a backer, and showed me proof. Wow, be better, Nashville. Yeah.

Man, I got off the plane. Drain Dorn's bank account. He's out here buying new cars every month. He can afford a beer. 20 seconds after getting off the plane, I hear, Dorn, love the podcast. About to listen to Patreon. Hell yeah. I said, what's up, player?

Hell yeah. It was cool. Huh. Back to how many bachelorette parties there are in that town. We had a really cool house in East Nashville, and it was kind of perched up on this hill, and the big patio, big deck out back. So we were back there and just kind of talking, drinking a little bit.

And you look out, and there are a bunch of houses down there. We could spot in our direct vicinity, including the house next door to us, three other bachelorette parties just right within 100 yards of us it was crazy is your boy low key gonna have his bachelor party in nashville no charleston probably not do charleston charleston we played golf charleston's in the running play golf at uh hermitage i think it's called hermitage hermitage yeah so did you guys plan your outfits before or is that just kind of like No we didn't plan our outfits

Y'all like That was the most generic white guy photo I've seen since the one I posted Oh my friends are the most generic white guy Dressing people in the world All of them You guys all look the exact same I brought my white sneakers there which I didn't end up wearing

But I brought them and they're like, dude, what's going on? Like, oh, I'm sorry, I don't have boat shoes on like all of you do. I was at a smoothie yesterday, and there were a bunch of high school girls sitting there getting smoothies as well. They were all wearing the exact same shoes. They were all wearing high-top white sneakers. Every single one of them i've never seen anything like it was so weird damn daniel dude like what were they doing though like i it's just like don't they look at themselves and say like i'm dressed exactly like my friend right here

and then they look around they're like no i'm dressed like all these people no i guarantee what they did was they uh looked at each other and one of them just goes Let's go girls. Woo! The best thing about being in high school. That place is country music crazy by the way man. And that's not a surprise to you right now. Sally told me the other day. So when I went there we were there for a wedding so we didn't really have like the whole

like full bender experience of like a bachelor party. We went to Husk. You familiar with Husk? Is that like a bottle service club? It a bachelor party we went to husk you familiar with husk is that like a bottle service club it's husk welcome to husk we only serve corn welcome to husk no it's not it's actually chef's table just did a thing on the the chef from husk and it's a pretty famous restaurant i don't know if it's got like michelin stars and shit but it's pretty good and so we went there and apparently luke bryan was there while i was there like how did i miss that it sounds like my kind of night they say never meet your heroes so i'm glad i didn't do it thank you dave thank

you sorry you're teeing me up we're having fun monday um we did go to a bar that had just like giant kid rock posters everywhere though so that was big i would imagine luke bryan can't go out in nashville Without a lot of security Yeah He's gotta be the most Recognizable guy In country music right now Right?

I don't know It's pretty hard to miss him When the lights of Nashville Are just like Shooting off of his Bedazzled jeans and stuff Just rhinestones Just blinding people

Yeah We got bad weather though man Did you wear boots? I did I wore boots Out both nights, actually. Wow. Yeah.

Wow. I don't know if that was a little too cliche to bring the boots to Nashville and wear them, but I mean, I wear them. You're from Texas. Yeah, I know. I was just being real. Yeah. Your boy was rocking one of my favorite looks, your dude on stage.

The button down in shorts. Yeah. Yeah. I love that. They went to a practice round at around the masters a bunch of the guys i was with and so they all had their masters gear they're like okay guys calm down that's rich coming from you who's currently wearing a master's t-shirt i know i know okay dylan so where what other cities have you been to uh for bachelor parties i've been to charleston okay i've been

to nashville i've been to denver i've been to new orleans i've been to vegas okay you've done like the circuit yeah i've been to probably another one did you say new orleans yeah okay where tight where does nashville rank okay um my favorite bachelor party was probably denver Denver because we mixed in skiing too. Saw that. Yeah, you did. We mixed in skiing. And then I'm going to say, man, it's tough. Hard to say?

It's hard to say. Charleston was so much fun. I feel like you're between Charleston and Nashville right now. No. Nashville is not in my top three. Wow. Okay. Yeah.

Vegas. Oh, yeah. You're a Vegas boy. Wow, okay. Yeah. Vegas. Oh, yeah, you're a Vegas boy. I'm a Vegas boy. Vegas is always a great time. Vegas, Charleston, Denver are one, two, three. The order, I don't know. Okay. Yeah.

Nashville, four? Maybe Nashville, five. Really? Yeah. I mean, I just feel like because I live in austin it wasn't like a that new of an experience for me it's hard to rank it's hard to rank too because bachelor parties are so person dependent yeah like you know what i mean like if you have a weird group and you don't know the people that well but these these are your boys from high school yeah yeah

look nashville's dope don't get me wrong it's a really cool city um but it's just so much like the city i i grew up in so it's just not that it wasn't that new feeling to me makes sense i get it but we had a great time i would go back to nashville and the weather sucked which was a kind of a little bit of a damper dude we got absolutely pissed on friday night here i we pulled up the radar while we were there. It was certified loco. Yeah, I heard. Will and I, we had a thing. We went out.

We were the only people in town that were like, oh, let's go out. It was dicey. Probably got three and a half inches of rain at my house. It just sat over us. It's called training. It's a training effect. It's when a particular cell just keeps moving over and it just keeps building behind it

and moving over this one specific area. And the bars were relatively empty Friday night. It was kind of strange. It wasn't strange. I mean, just being out though. We didn't need to be out. No. Man, the weather yesterday though, perfect.

Yeah, it was perfect. Yesterday it was tight. But now it's nasty again. Man, you know what they say. What they say wait five minutes yeah the weather will change that's they do say that that's correct yeah uh what else am i missing anything else i don't think so i don't think so either unless you have any closing thoughts great city golf was fun there are goats i don't know if they're goats or sheep or whatever they were but they're all over the course at hermitage is that not dangerous because don't know if they were goats or sheep or whatever they were, but they were all over the course at Hermitage. Is that not dangerous? Because

those things will bum rush you, right? No, they were pretty docile. I just remembered. I had to interrupt my day drinking before the wedding in Nashville because I realized that I forgot my bow tie and I had to Uber to a Nordstrom

like a half hour away from the bar we were at and then Uber back to get my tie. I thought that I forgot my bow tie, and I had to Uber to a Nordstrom like a half hour away from the bar we were at, and then Uber back to get my tie. I thought that was going to somehow involve a goat. No. One of our guys, shout out to Eugene, he couldn't fly out on Friday because he had some work stuff to do. Or he couldn't fly out early with us. He was trying to catch a later flight that day. But because of the rain, all flights were shut down.

This dude Ubered to the San Antonio airport to fly out of there early saturday morning my dude what a trooper huh my dude you have you don't see that the fomo would get to you yeah you don't see you have to do it that's a long uber yeah he says it was like 105 bucks which is not as bad as i thought no you can like honestly sometimes it makes more sense for people to Uber places than it does for them to, like, fly. Yeah. Like, I've seen Ubers that are, like, $300 Ubers that take you, like, a few hours. But if you compare flight prices, it makes way more sense to Uber.

That being said, it sounds miserable. And your Uber driver probably fucking hates you. Can you imagine accepting that ride and being like, oh, I'm going to a different state right now? Your Uber driver is known for having good conversations. Oh, fuck. Do you want to talk about Adam Sandler on SNL? Can we take a break? Yeah.

I got to pee so bad. Cue the music. Cue the music. Sorry about that, guys. Never apologize. You've got to listen to your body. And if your body says you've got to get a tinky off, you've got to get a tinky off. Don't I know it.

So, I actually didn't know that Adam Sandler was hosting SNL until Dave texted me that I should watch some of the stuff. Which is, it's messed up. I'm the SNL guy in here right now. I'm surprised. You are the noted SNL stan at this point. I never watch it live. I only watch it on Hulu. And so when... Must be nice. What? Having Hulu. Oh, sally's password yeah uh so like

yeah i didn't know and when i saw when dave told me that adam sandler's hosting i was kind of surprised that's a big guest for i mean that's a big that's a big thing for them so you know after watching it he has not been back on the show he has not hosted the show since he was fired the whole firing thing can why why did he get fired i don't know if it was a firing as much as like we're letting you go yeah you know that there's like that weird it's being laid off as a firing has like a connotation of you did something wrong you got to go like norm mcdonald norm was fired right for what okay so so you know norm's part of his shtick was a ton of michael jackson jokes and a ton of oj jokes like very very good ones but like really really like poignant and toe in the line a little bit oh yeah like i

mean he would go in on oJ and one of the execs, I don't remember the guy's name at NBC was like boys with OJ and like they warned him to stop. And that's a good look. Just kept doing it. Yeah. History looks, it's better for the, you know,

he's better for it. Uh, cause he went on to make dirty work and be like the greatest standup comedian in the world. Well, yeah, as Adam Sandler said, he's, he just stunted all over them by saying that he made $400 million at the box office after getting fired.

So it's like, yeah. Yeah. So that was his like, so in his monologue, which I went back and watched because Saturday I didn't watch it,

but I woke up Sunday and I saw Chris Farley trending. I saw Adam Sandler trending on Twitter. You know, they've got the trending stuff. And that's when I learned, I was like,

holy shit, I missed Sandler on here. And his opening monologue was essentially him doing a song about trending stuff and uh that's when i learned i was like holy shit i missed sandler on here and his opening monologue was essentially him doing a song about getting fired and he brought in you saw chris rock come in chris chris rock let go as well uh your boy pete davison not my boy aren't you the big pete guy no he kind of bugs me he had me. He had a funny little moment on there where he's singing about being fired and like, wait, wait, wait. You still work on the show. Adam Sandler just essentially said like, well, it'll happen eventually to you.

And he's not wrong, right? No. But it was good, man. And I rarely will watch an entire episode of SNL. I watched this whole thing yesterday. The skits in the beginning fell a little flat for me okay i don't want to say that because adam sandler is the legend he's a legend on snl the family feud one the opening see that fell flat because i wasn't familiar with the avengers characters or game of thrones yeah that couldn't have been that's not what i was

talking about though that was good i meant the other one. The two after kind of just fell flat. His family reunion. Dude, I thought that was funny. Once I realized what they were doing, I was like, okay, this is absurd. Some of it was a little dumb. Pete Davidson was incredible in that one. I don't know.

I don't find the one voice that funny. I've never found it that funny. They brought out Jimmy Fallon because Jimmy Fallon does a pretty good Adam Sandler. They have really good guests. Fallon came back. Chris Rock came back. Kristen Wiig. Kristen Wiig.

Yeah, the crux of that skit was Adam Sandler, he's at the family reunion, and the waiter at first is like, hey, where did you get your ideas? He's at, he's at the family reunion and like the waiter first is like, Hey, where do you get your ideas? He's like, Oh, I don't know. And then you find out like all of his family members are basically built,

uh, Adam Sandler characters. So you got little Nikki, you've got, you had big daddy guy yelling, yelling at kids. Then you had just the random, like the one you were just talking about.

I thought, It was funny, but it wasn't like, I don't know. It was nostalgia funny. I see why they did it. Yeah. But the highlights, hands down, and I think you can agree with me, were Opera Man on Weekend Update.

Dude, Opera Man's fucking great. I don't care. And then the song at the end that was a tribute to Chris Farley, which is why Chris Farley was probably trending. More on that in a minute. Let's get Opera Man out of the way before we get serious. Opera Man was something else. If you don't know Opera Man, because there's probably a lot of people here

who weren't around for the Sandler SNL stuff. They only know him as the guy who makes grown-ups movies. I think I was pretty young at the time to the point where I probably am only familiar with Opera Man from watching reruns. He nailed it. That's probably not easy to do.

I guess that's in his wheelhouse, like singing comedy. But he actually has a pretty decent voice and he's got rhythm. He's on beat. But it's just funny. Like, they worked in some political shtick. And I thought it was really good. Tastefully done.

It was amazing that he just did it for... It went for so long. It really did. You know when you're watching a movie and there's a tracking shot? And you're just like, holy shit. They haven't broken this scene for like five minutes. Like, True Detective had one with McConaughey just like running and stuff. Hunting at Hill House had one that was like 15 minutes. was incredible children of men has a really good one actually the movie what is it it's an m night shambhala movie the

village had a really good one uh but that's what i had the whole time i i had the same feeling watching this where i was like holy shit he's just been going. Yeah. It was so funny. So as Will mentioned, they closed out the show, and it's actually a song. You know Adam Sandler's got that Netflix special. He does this song in his stand-up. Oh, he does? I haven't seen that.

And it's a tribute to Chris Farley. I'm going to go back and watch it. I watched this yesterday morning, and I was kind of hungover. I didn't know what I was in for. A little emotional? Dude, I was emotional watching it. Because you could tell him, like he's holding back emotions when he's singing the song. And they've got a video running behind him of like Chris Farley's greatest hits.

It was weird because at one point when he was singing the song, Sally was in the kitchen and she could hear it and she was like, wow, this is really touching. And then I was sitting on the couch kind of like getting a little misty. And then at one point, they showed a Chris, during one of the saddest parts of the song, they show a Chris Farley clip on the TV

and I just busted out laughing because I was like, dude, that's such a good skit. It was like the perfect juxtaposition of like that because that sums him up. I was like welling up while like laughing my ass off and I was like, perfect juxtaposition of like that. Because that sums him up. I was like welling up while like laughing my ass off. And I was like, this is great.

It was such a good feeling. He's the GOAT to me. Who? Chris Farley. I was trying to, so I was thinking about this before. If they did a Mount Rushmore of SNL cast members. Chris Farley's my number one guy. Chris Farley's 100%.

He's 100% on there. It's a harder, once I Googled like all the cast members. Chris Farley's my number one guy. Farley's 100% on there. It's a harder... Once I googled all the cast members, it's really hard to narrow it down to four perfect cast members. Farley's definitely on there. I feel like Belushi has to be on

there, even though I'm not going to act like I know all of Belushi's bits from the early 80s. The way that history would look on it, it seems like it would be like that um you gotta think kristin wiggs on there too well no for for the for the female side i would have done uh uh um 30 rock why am i forgetting her name tina fey tina fey amy poehler like but there are so many good people like so I looked it up and what came up

when I looked up like the best cast members was number one Bill Murray number two John Belushi three Eddie Murphy

four Phil Hartman Will Ferrell Dan Aykroyd Chris Farley Tina Fey Phil Hartman was higher than I thought he would be on

Rolling Stone's ranking he's you kind of get you get the death bump you might get the death bump yeah but he would dude he did so much feral feral for me unfrozen caveman lawyer feral for me is 100 in the top four when I earlier when I said Frolly as the goat I'm talking about like all-encompassing movies everything okay not just SNL although he was top tier SNL yeah yeah yeah he he's, he might be the top SNL cast member for me. Did the clip that made me like laugh and cry at the same time as when they

showed him, uh, as the lunch lady in the lunch lady land song. Cause it's so, it's so absurd. I think the one that made me laugh was when he just drops his pants and like, uh, I think it's in,

it's, it's in one of the movies with, uh, David Spade. I forget which one it was. When he just drops his pants in the hotel room and he's just standing there pantsless. And I just busted out laughing. Tommy Boy?

Yeah. But what's the other one? Black Sheep. Black Sheep. I don't know which one it was. Dude, I really like Black Sheep. I think I may have tweeted out that I like Black Sheep more than Tommy Boy. I don't know if that's accurate. I might get fried for that.

Yeah. Look, it's the same fucking thing. It's Tommy Boy. I don't know if that's accurate. I might get fried for that, but... Yeah. Look, it's the same fucking thing. It's very similar. I don't know. If you haven't watched it, it's very much worth watching, especially Opera Man as well as... The final song, you might have seen it on Twitter, but it's worth watching.

You're going to get James Harden face if you watch it, though, so don't do it at your desk. Yeah, Crying Will definitely came out a little bit when I was watching it. Dylan... Never mind. What when I was watching it. Dylan. Never mind. What? Nothing.

Say it. Say it, bitch. Say it, bitch. Don't worry about it. Okay. I just clicked onto this entire article and Daryl Hammett is number 25 on the ranking. Is he the one who did the W impression? He did Clinton.

Oh, he did Clinton. He was actually a good Clinton now that I think about it. Yeah. People are going to wonder why I don't have Norm on there. It's like, I think Norm, while he was a great cast member,

I feel like he did his, he's done his best stuff since SNL. They said that... In his weekend update, he's the best weekend update guy. They put him at number 21. Okay.

Which seems low. Dude, did you see Burt Reynolds though? I went back and was watching. Did you see that, did you see that weekend update guy for me put him at number 21 okay which seems low dude burt reynolds though i went back and was watching did you see that did you see that uh old snl snippet i retweeted so there's an account no there's an account that's devoted to finding old snl clips and tweeting them it's like at snl snippets or something they did the it's norm mcdonald in a car he's like a car crash victim and sylvester salone. It's like they're like tending to him

like he was a witness. And it's just Norm like shitting on all of his old movies that are terrible like Over the Top, Stop or My Mom Will Shoot, like all that stuff.

And go back and watch it. I retweeted it last week. It's one of the funnier bits. And Will Ferrell actually has a pretty funny little moment in there. It's like early on in his SNL career.

I need to follow his account. Oh, it's a great account. What's the app? I'm going to look it up because it's not helpful. If you have been on the fence for... I'm saying this because he's a former... I think he left SNL in order to pursue other opportunities, and this is probably the main one.

But if you're an SNL fan, and you have not started watching Barry starring Bill Hader on HBO, it is an absolute must watch. This season... Is that HBO? Yes. We're in season two right now. This season, every single episode has been incredible.

Last night's episode was amazing, but more specifically, last week's episode was one of the best episodes of television I've ever seen. That's a huge statement. Bill Hader is amazing. I've never watched his show, though. This show is absolutely ever seen. That's a huge statement. Bill Hader's amazing. I've never watched his show, though. This show is absolutely amazing, and it's just getting better. It won the Golden Globe for Best Comedy, I think, last... Or no, it won a major award for Best Comedy, and...

All right, I'm sold. If you're watching Game of Thrones, it's worth staying on after and watching Barry and V. Both have been phenomenal this season. By the way, it is at SNL snippets on Twitter. Snippets. Snippets. Snippet. Have you seen the previews for HBO's original Chernobyl?

No. Have you seen this? They're running it before Game of Thrones, like the trailer and stuff. It looks good. Dude, HBO's getting a little fast and loose with their previews before these shows. I agree.

Before Barry last night, the preview was a minute 45 seconds long for other shows on HBO. No. Do not put that on my... Don't make me sit there for two minutes before I start the television show that's ridiculous

I don't pay that money every month for HBO Now to watch your previews that's a good point if it's free yeah shove the free previews

down my throat otherwise no damn yeah you heard me I mean we have a subscription service and it's ad free yeah

yeah imagine that we're basically the HBO of the vlog world yeah we really are we're premium vlogging

I think Tom Ford might be number one on my list for like, I could never afford this without Sempert. I just like saying it. It's like $250 a bottle. It's fun to be like, oh, it's Tom.

It's TF, Tom Ford. The one I keep going back to is Versace. Oh, damn, Playboy. It smells so good. So what Sempert actually is is a luxury fragrance subscription service. You can mix up your routine. It's a way to discover new colognes or perfumes

can I tell you guys something that happened to me yesterday? Please. Two days ago. I would love to know. Dave has something we want to get off his chest just in. Oh, yeah. What do you got, Tom? No, I really didn't. You leaned in like you had something to spring on us. I'll tell you. I was love to know. Dave has something we want to get off his chest just in. Oh, yeah. What do you got? No, I really didn't.

You leaned in like you had something to spring on us. I'll tell you. I was going to say, bye, bitch. And I was going to tell you to put your headphones on.

Oh, not yet. That's exactly what was going to happen. Not yet. So I apologize. So, kids. Dylan, you have one. Sure.

You've acquired one. I have the best one in the world. I was hoping this was going to be a segment about the movie kids. No. No, we can do that later, though. That's Patreon. You're a big Casper guy. Kids will in the world. I was hoping this was going to be a segment about the movie kids. No. No, we can do that later, though. That's Patreon. You're a big Casper guy.

Kids be saying things. That's what you're going to... Kids be saying things. So my only experience... I've never had, like, nieces or nephews in my own family that I've, like, dealt with. The closest I've gotten to dealing with kids has been when I taught skiing for like week periods over the winter when the most people were in town. I didn't know you were a ski instructor. I would do it for a week.

Were you ever a ski instructor? He did like pizza, french fry. I mean, that's literally what I would teach kids how to do. And so like kids kind of scare me because they're very honest. They're brutally honest. The homie is like the most polite kid in the world. I don't get afraid that he's going to flame me whenever I'm around him. He's a gentleman.

So the other day, Sally went and tried on some wedding dresses. And her nieces were there with her. And after they tried them on, they were coming to our place to pick me up so we could all go out to lunch together. They came into my apartment and I was like, man, I don't know what they're going to say. It's a modest apartment. I don't know if they're going to say. It's a modest apartment. I don't know if they're going to say anything mean. I got out of there scot-free. I offered them – I was eating a jar of pickles and I was like, hey, do you guys want a pickle?

And they were like, no, those are gross. And I'm like, okay, cool. Just panicking. I was trying to bribe them with pickles. I don't know how to interact with kids. You want some of this AeroPress coffee? Can I get you a coffee or anything? You want a beer or something?

What's up? So then – and I really like, these girls are great. They're good kids. They are smart. I like being around them. They are honest, though. And so we decide that we're going to drive my car to lunch. We get in my car.

They get in the back seat. I look in the rearview mirror, and immediately they have looks of disgust on their face. I know that I'm pushing a 2007 Ford Fusion. Is that the worst car they've ever been in in their life probably yeah and i know that like my car had some stuff in the back i didn't know i was having kids get like shuttled around my car but the look on their face said something more than just like this is messy and this is an old car dude they told me that i have a smelly car oh no wow you're the kid in class with the smelly car dude like it just rattled me i didn't know what to do with i haven't been in your car in a long time it's smelly i never noticed it was

smelly it's kind of smelly right now just because there's a lot of stuff in it i think there's been some golf shoes that maybe sat in there in the heat for a little too long you cannot leave golf shoes in a vehicle and so once they said that like i got kind of defensive i was like it's not it's not smelly. It's not that smelly. You're smelly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You smell bad.

They were right, though. And I was like, we put down the windows. And, like, at one point, one of them was just sticking her head out the window because she was, like, gasping for air. A little much. And I was like, yeah, you're being a little dramatic. Oh, my gosh. And it just rattled me. For the entire lunch, I was sitting there.

I was like, dude, I got to get my car detailed. Like, I might have to just trade this thing in and get a new car like what am i doing you definitely should do that but like it just scares the shit out of me kids are ruthless and they don't even know it yeah these are nice girls like they're not they're not out to get me they don't know the social norms yet dude i hope they're learning but they're not out to get me so like what they were saying was genuine from the heart and now i'm the smelly car guy. We were in a restaurant a couple weeks ago. Diesel gas sucks my ass. Sorry.

A waiter had an eyepatch on. Oh, no. Mark stands up, points at me, and goes, Look, Daddy, a pirate. I was like, Dude, sit down. You can't say stuff like that. They just don't know, man. They don't know what they can get away with saying what they can't.

Yeah. It was kind of funny, though. I mean, it's a good zinger. It's a good one-liner from the homie. Yeah. But I don't know, man. I'm not good with kids. If someone hands me a baby, I don't know exactly how to hold it.

I know you have to support the neck and stuff, and I don't know what to do. If it's really young, yeah, you got to support the neck. I know you have to support the neck and stuff. And like, I don't know what to do. If it's really young, yeah, you got to support the neck. Man, I hope we get out of here and like we go get some lunch. And then you get a notification that like these girls at their school have started like a fundraiser. Like a GoFundMe. To get Will to car.

They just think you're legitimately circling the drain. They're like, help my future what? Will you be an uncle? Yeah. My future uncle Will. Get his life back together. Pick the pieces up. Dude, it was so defeating.

And like, I don't know. And now I'm like, I'm facing, so I'm leaving town for Memorial Day weekend. And I have to, I'm going to get my car detailed while they're gone. I can't live like this. I can't be like, I can't be the uncle with the smelly car. Then at lunch, somebody asked like, oh, how'd you guys get here? They thought we might have walked because I live really close

to Matt's old rancho and we said we drove and the girls immediately started flaming me at the table. And they were like, oh, Will's car smells so bad. Oh, man. And I was just sitting there

and I was like, it's not that bad. Like, it's cool, man. It's really not. Yeah, though. I've been in that car a bunch of times. If you're in the Austin area

and you get a knock on your door and it's a kid with like a box full of candy, just know it's going to a good cause. Yeah, if they're've been in that car a bunch of times. If you're in the Austin area and you get a knock on your door and it's a kid with a box full of candy, just know it's going to a good cause. Yeah, if they're selling you some peanut butter cups or some chocolate bars, it's just to fund my new car. It's the Will DeFreeze Memorial Car Fundraiser. I did come to a kind of, you know, I resolved myself to, there's a 50% chance that my next

car is going to be a convertible. What? I'm sorry? Are you kidding? No. The more I think about it, the more I can't figure out why I wouldn't get a convertible. Soft top or hard top? I don't know. A convertible? As long as the top drops, I don't care.

Dude, why wouldn't I? I saw a dude after my beer trip. I think I told this story. The dude was driving a Saab convertible and he was parked next to me. And I hit him with after my beer trip. I think I told this story. Get a Volkswagen Beetle convertible. The dude was driving a Saab convertible, and he was parked next to me. And I hit him with, hey, nice, like, that's a great-looking car. And he knew. And he asked if I wanted to take a spin around the block in it. And I was like, no, I'm good on that, but, like, still dope car.

And he's like, yeah, I haven't been able to find one in a while. This is, like, a 2006 Navy Blue Saab convertible. So this whole thing we're doing this like washed media of two goals. One is to join a Spanish Oaks country club. Two, I want to be the guy who has enough, not fuck you money, but like to throw around to where I can buy like late eighties,

Porsches, Saabs, like, and just have those as like, like just cruise around Austin cars. My dad has a, it's an early two thousands of Mercedes, I think, and it's a convertible. And he's convinced it's the nicest car in Austin. It's the funniest thing ever.

He's like, oh, I would never trade this car, and it's the best car in Austin. I love that. There's people in Harbor Springs who have vacation homes up there, and so they have a car that they just leave there. And the license plate will say SMR car, like summer car. I'm like, okay, that's a little much, little much. That being said, like, it's such a flex. And like, if you imagine Rosie sticking her head out of like the back of a drop top convertible.

Yeah. I've thought about that often. And the more I think about it, I'm like, well, what am I doing without a convertible? Like, I don't need a roof on my car all the time, especially at this time of year. Let me cruise. Don't do what you're about to do. Dude, I want to see you driving down South Congress. I want to say that I would put my windows down and cruise, but you don't put your windows

down. You put the whole top down. I want to see Will driving down South Congress and people be like, oh, there goes the freeze. Titty's out. Dude, don't get a soft top though. Well, yeah. When the top's up, they just look so bad. Yeah goes the freeze. Titty's out. Dude, don't get a soft top, though. Well, yeah. When the top's up, they just look so bad.

Yeah, I agree. And it's loud. My buddy does the silver car thing when he comes to Austin, and he got an Audi convertible. And I didn't realize it was a convertible when we walked up to it, and I got in,

and we were just taking it somewhere else. He dropped the top? He dropped the top, and I was like, oh, shit. Like, yeah, it's on now. You know what my sister's first car was in high school? A Dodge Shadow convertible. Wow.

Maroon. No one's doing that. I used to love going around in that thing. My dad had a white Miata growing up. And we used to just take cruises in it. Somebody noted, it might have been on the Reddit, I don't know where, that your dad had like, we don't talk enough about the phase. His midlife crisis?

Yeah, like it's really quite amazing. It's absurd. Yeah, he really did it to him. He was gone for, like, three weeks at a time. Like, I don't even know how old I was. I was young as hell. And he was just gone for three weeks at a time, and he was just, like, buying cattle and shit. Kind of tight.

I did see, sorry, I don't want to forget this. I did see one of the douchiest license plates I've ever seen the other day. It was on an Audi, I think, A8. And the license plate just said, rule 76. Meaning, no excuses, play like a champion. Oh my god. The guy driving it could not have looked more like a dude who would have that license plate. No one is, no, okay.

That is terrible. Dude, it was so douchey. Rule 76. That's it. He paid extra money to get that on the back of his Audi. You know what mine's going to be? It's going to be BTFL BBY. Beautiful baby.

Mm-mm. No, it's not, Dave. Yeah. You're not doing that. How many people even get that reference? Dylan. What? You're so money.

I don't even know it. I don't know why I just chimed in on that. You did. I'm embarrassed. I dragged you down. Yeah, you did. Kicking and screaming. I feel like a lot of people get that reference.

That's one of the most popular lines from Wedding Crashers, which was one of the most quotable movies ever. Okay. I was thinking Rule 76 was some civil procedure rule, and he was like a lawyer. That's like some kind of divorce clause that got him the car. Yeah, I was like, wait, what? Well, I said this on Touching Base.

There was a guy in my hometown, and his license plate just has a date on it, like April 26, 99. And it's the day that his divorce was finalized. And he just cruises around like a badass car. Holy shit. You know what car I'm thinking of that I want to get? What's the video? We should just post this video again.

The yuppie rap. Yeah. He snaps. He snaps. the the yuppie rap yeah he snaps he's driving around Cali in that like I don't know if it's a Saab convertible it's something it's such a

it's such a look he that guy doesn't know how much potential that video has I used to email him we contacted him yeah

he was completely cool I could reach out to him again he does some work I live in Chicago I don't think he knows what he has there the gold I tried to tell him

he didn't really get it this has a second life this can do numbers sir it did numbers it was a very popular video I just wanted to get all that off my back it doesn't feel good to get scorched by kids are you ok?

not really I'm going to have to get my car detailed there's a place by the airport where you drop your car off scorched by kids. You okay? Yeah, not really. I'm going to have to get my car detailed. Like, that's what I've resolved myself to. There's a place by the airport where you drop your car off. They park it for you, and they can detail your car. It's just outrageously expensive. But I don't have a choice at this point. The next time they get my car, if it still smells bad,

they're never going to let me live this down. I can't be the smelly uncle. Dude, you should just go all out, get a brand new car, get like a Lambo or something. Be like, hey, is this nice enough for you? Yeah, yeah. Is this good enough? How's this smell?

We can go trade it in real quick. Oh, let me drop the top. There's no smell on the tops down, is there? Did you ask him like, hey, what are y'all driving? Let me ask. Yeah, what kind of vehicle are you in? Dude, trust me. They would have a nicer car than I would if they had cars right now.

My car stinks. Literally? Yeah, fuck. Both. Is it time for Thrones yet? Are we... Yeah, I just opened up Spotify. Sure enough, the last thing I listened to on Spotify on desktop was The Wallflowers.

So I guess I haven't listened on this very... Let's drop the rollback code real quick for the people. Well, Dave's wearing a rollback shirt right now. I actually almost wore my hot pink rollback shirt. Don't call it hot pink. It's salmon, dude. It's a little hotter than salmon. Fuck.

Okay. It's still... It's pretty good, though. What is our rollback code? CB20. CB20, baby. CB20. What's that get you?

20% off of your order. Hats. Athleisure like I'm rocking. Golf polos. I played golf on Friday, like I said, and one of my friends, he saw my road bag shirt and he goes, dude, I love those shirts. They fit so well. I was like, yeah, did you use our promo code?

He said, what are you talking about? Oh, you freaking idiot. So it's cool to see an organic road bag showing up in the wild like that? Yes. But dude, you CB 20 for 20% off? You idiot! I saw a guy at the grocery store yesterday. I was in the coffee aisle.

I was getting that fresh ground, you know? He's the open yogurt chef. You know what it is. That part's not necessary, but okay. Just tell us more. Dude was wearing a road bag shirt. And I almost asked him how he liked it, but I knew I didn't have to. Yeah.

You don't wear that to the grocery to. Yeah. You don't wear that to the grocery store on Sunday. You don't make that your chosen fit to the grocery store on Sunday if you don't love that shirt. Obviously. It's a great Sunday shirt.

I should have hit him with the promo code though. CB20 for those keeping track. You get 20% off your order whether you want a QZ, a polo, moisture wicking shirts, hats,

hats, I honestly, I'm sad about summer because I love wearing that QZ so much yeah you could you could have worn it

this morning a little humid you know I don't know it gets breezy back in our dog park so I always it always feels like

it's about 10 degrees like lower than this okay okay you're reaching for your headphones it must be thrones time ooh birdman.gif wow if you heard if you heard that Okay. You're reaching for your headphones. It must be Thrones time.

Ooh, birdman.gif. Wow. Rub my hands together. If you heard that, that was my Bose headphones case just unzipping. Yeah, that was not. Wow, that's good radio right there. Giant zipper. Thank you. Were you ever a Squirrel Nut Zippers fan?

I have no clue what you're talking about. Hey, Dylan. Squirrel Nut Zippers. You remember them? They had a song called Hell. Never heard of them talking about. Hey, Dylan. Squirrel nut zippers. You remember them? They had a song called Hell. Never heard of them, man. Oh, okay. Shouldn't surprise you.

They're not good. Can we just, off the top, talk about the Starbucks thing? Yeah. Hold on, guys. I didn't see that until this morning. No, you saw this. Oh, yeah. Yeah, there was a Starbucks cup in front of Aria.

Not Aria. In front of Sagittarius yes that's that's correct okay well let's just fire up that music over there sagittarius go away all right i'm tossing on one i think people might like will just toss it in like incorrect one-liners hey let me know let me know when i can stop um how does that happen first of all and maybe it's like they just wanted to leave it. It's not intentional, right? Just be like, yeah, we're going to fuck around and leave something in there. See if anybody notices. Because how does that happen?

It was right in front of Daenerys. Maybe because they're rushing their ass off. For those who don't know, there's a Starbucks cup very visible in Game of Thrones episode last night. The scene where everybody's gassing up John, like Tormund is just stroking him off. Yeah. And like Dany's just kind of over at the end of the table, like failed smile.

Yeah. It's just a Starbucks, right? Chilling in front of her. Right in front of her. It was hers. She was drinking. Yeah. Not a crew member production team. It was her coffee yeah how do you leave that

there oh just utter incompetence pretty funny not her fault that's somebody on the staff you know yeah what uh what are your knee jerk takes this episode felt so different to me so like i can't i was texting you and klein about this last night i can't really put a finger on it something just felt a little off like the even the way it was kind of filmed it felt so different from all the other episodes i thought i don't know um yeah so i definitely i enjoyed it and like a lot of things with game of thrones i think i need to just stop doing the uh extracurricular, looking into it and seeing what everybody else's takes are. Because while, yes, I'm enjoying it in the moment.

Makes you question your own self. Then I start to notice things, like second time watching it. And then people will bring up good points about dialogue holes or just plot holes. And I'm like, oh. And Klein went scorched earth last night on it. Klein was not a fan. Did Klein, did he really hit us with like 600 words in a text message?

Yeah, he did. Our buddy Klein's a big Game of Thrones guy and he took them to the cleaners last night. Yeah, he did not like the episode. I enjoyed it. Like a lot of people didn't like the first 20 minutes. Like all the dialogue and just the, you know, the sex and the drinking.

I thought it was great. There are definitely like some plot holes and some missing pieces that people are calling out and i think they're getting like the writers are just trying to scramble to get so much in in these last few episodes that they they have to kind of leave stuff out so i'm trying to avoid having takes about the season being too short for what they need to do because it's ruining my enjoyment. I've had it that take since last season and there's nothing I can do about it, obviously. There's nothing like, none of this bitching is going to do anything, right? It's not going to

change anybody's mind. But so I'm just, I'm done with that. Like, yeah, this is what they got. For some reason, it's six, it's a six episode season. They got a lot to wrap up, right? So there's going to be some stuff that happens really quickly like they're gonna get to uh dragon stone real quick but some interesting points like how does how do they not utilize bran to to you know know maybe they're walking into an ambush or sailing into an ambush yeah all sorts of stuff. Like, what's going on there? Yeah, there's a bunch of things like that. They don't think about that potentially?

Because, you know, Dragon's Zone's very close to King's Landing. Like, they didn't think maybe this isn't going to work out. They might have to, like, square up. I don't know. And one of the dragons, Jon's dragon, rest in peace, was hurt flying around, and it just got murked, man. That came out of nowhere. They did not miss with those arrows,

whatever you want to call them, spears. Holy shit. It's like taking down a fighter jet, man. That was wild. What do you think about the internet's treatment of Tyrion swimming? That's funny. It's funny. Little people jokes aren't that funny.

Let's put that on the table. I agree. But it was funny. Yeah. That's funny. Little people jokes aren't that funny. No. Let's put that on the table. I agree. But it was funny. At the end there, when Tyrion was talking to Cersei about her baby, so he knew that she was pregnant. Yes. How is Euron not like, wait a minute, this might not be my kid. He's just sitting there with war face on, like, let's get this.

That was a plot hole um i've got a problem with that whole thing so you're gonna bring your queen all her advisors um your best soldiers and your your last dragon just within a couple hundred yards of uh hundreds if not thousands of of archers you could have cleaned them out right there. The giant crossbow that killed your other dragon. What are you doing? Just end the war right now. Yeah, and it's not like there's some code that Cersei's going to abide by.

They've proven that. I thought Tyrion was done. When he walked up, I thought, well, this is it. This is how it goes. Luckily, that didn't happen yet. Missandei got got, though. Lost her head, Dave.

That happened very quickly. She was in the... Question. Hold on. Will, that's a little loud. I'm afraid it's going to get bad. Okay. You're good.

He's playing air guitar. Question. Yeah. Tormund, who we all love, who's a real one, he and John have been through some shit together. One more battle to go, and he's just going to dip and head north? What is that? Stay and fight one more time for your boy. He needs you.

The army's depleted. He's taking the wildlings and they're heading up. Why? I'm hoping that we have not seen the last of Tormund and Ghost. Ghost got a shitty farewell. I hate what they're doing with him. Tormund dipping makes no sense to my brain. I don't understand why he's not going to stick around

and give John one more go. Yeah. One more battle left, dude. A lot of people are calling for a Tormund-Ghost buddy comedy. I saw some of that. I support that. Hey, man, your dog, your dope-ass direwolf, you know, the one that you raised since you were a pup?

Is he protecting your life? He took an ear. He lost an ear for you in the big fight, the big war. Go pat him on the head. I know he's not a beagle. He's a wolf. He doesn't need as much affection. But that's your dog.

Yeah. Go give him a head pat. You got a pet. You got a responsibility. That was a great tweet dave thank you um at d carter rough peep my tweets so i don't know i didn't like that torment dipped i didn't like that either i i didn't like that uh aria just dipped out too and it was just like oh yeah i'm leaving oh and her her reception back at

winterfell was shit she just killed the night king and saved all of your asses give her a parade i want a powerpoint presentation from aria explaining exactly how that went down yeah because i i'm sure there's some people in there like wait how did you like somebody like in the back like kind of raises their hand. Like how did you get around all the – you know, all those walkers? Explain this again. I don't know, dude. Two episodes left.

Like I said, I enjoyed the episode. And then I started talking to my friends about it like I'm doing right now. And it's just like – Yeah. and then I started talking to my friends about it like I'm doing right now. I'm really excited for... Obviously, the Hound is heading to find the mountain. He's heading back to King's Landing. It's the only thing that will make him happy. That's the only thing. He's got to check that one off his list

before he can die happy. I'm really excited for that. Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed the episode. It was very entertaining. It wasn't one of my favorites, though. I'll be honest. You should go back and watch it again.

I'm going to do it. All the moving parts just aren't connecting like they should be to me. Well, that feels like last season, too. Yeah. When a lot of stuff, they're covering a lot of ground in a short amount of time because out of necessity. And at the end of the last episode, we were on the highest high. They defeated the dead, White Walkers. Arya killed Night King. was like this awesome moment and then now they look like they're just

in complete dire straits from one the extreme high to extreme low that was interesting maybe salsa was right they should have just kind of chilled out for a couple weeks before they just marched on let the waters calm a little bit yeah Yeah. What did you think about... How did you take Jaime leaving? And his whole thing about Cersei? I thought that was a good storyline. But do you take it as he's devoted to Cersei? Or is this like he's got unfinished business

and he wants to be there to... I think he just wants to go keep Cersei safe. Oh, so you think he's... I think he's going to go keep cersei safe oh so you think he's i think he's gonna go protect cersei interesting yeah so yeah i saw some debate on that like wait is this him basically telling brianne like that he's still in love with cersei and and like he's gonna go ride for her or is this kind of like everything i've done has been for her with like an acknowledgement of like i've been wrong and i want to go to see it end, come to an end. Oh, really?

I don't know. I didn't interpret it that way at all. I don't know how I'm supposed to interpret it. What he was saying is I've done all these things to go back to Cersei. And now I'm doing it again. I'm going back. But thank you for your virginity, by the way. Yeah.

You're just going to hit and quit like that, Rianne? Yeah. Just kind of sorry. She was upset, man. There's some good tweets out there, too. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Yeah, I think he's going to...

She walked outside in her robe? She did. Yeah, I don't know, man. I think he's going back to protect her or something, or at least die with her. I don't know. I'm, uh... I don't know. I'm, uh, I don't know.

There's spoilers out there. So be careful. Really? Yesterday's got leaked. Yesterday's episode. And somebody on my timeline tweeted, not a spoiler, but that they had accidentally seen the spoiler.

Anytime that happens, part of me dies because I don't like, I start thinking like, well, wait, how big could the spoiler have been if I haven't seen it yet? You know what I mean? So I'm like thinking in my head,

wait, so is nothing really going to happen in this episode? So I start overthinking, like, what does this mean that there's a, like people have seen spoilers, but no one's like, it hasn't made its way

to my timeline yet. I just can't imagine why anybody would want to do that. I don't either. It's fucked up. Why would Arya say she doesn't want to go back? She's not going back to my timeline yet. I just can't imagine why anybody would want to do that to her. I don't either. It's fucked up. Why would Arya say she doesn't want to go back? She's not going back

to Winterfell. She's heading south. Why is she heading south first of all? She's left by herself. Last person on her list or she's still got Cersei on the list.

Why wouldn't she go with the army and do it the right way? Is she going to go in there all ninja-like? Yeah, dude. Like she did it at the Night King.

She's going to sneak up. She's creeping up. Why is no one one she's not letting anyone know her plan like why she's sneaking off like that i don't know but if we get if the mountain takes down the hound i'll be really upset i think it's very likely um but this is i just said i wasn't gonna have these takes but i wish we had a few more episodes because we so we could get more Arya and Hound relationship dialogue like just those two

their interactions they're great together because that was like one of the best storylines from the entire series how about Gendry dropping to a knee already Gendry needs to fucking chill

calm down Gendry why don't you just cool it bud what's he going to do I don't know he's lord of what's it called oh yeah

Storm's Storm's End End ish which I don't know he's lord of uh what's it called oh yeah storms storms end end ish which i don't recall that being we didn't even talk about braun oh yeah braun comes fucking charging in that got hot that one that was more intense than i expected it to be yeah i i uh i was a little bit worried i thought uh you know this is gonna get one of them. This is going to be the classic RR, like we're going to lose somebody out of nowhere. Because we've been going this whole time thinking, dude, no, Bron's loyal to these guys. He likes these dudes.

And maybe he is. He's got all the leverage in this negotiation. So he's just trying to get the best deal. Send him a DCO hat. What's he getting? Highgarden. Yeah. Big deal. Yeah. Dude getting what's he getting Highgarden yeah big deal yeah

dude Bron Lord of Highgarden Bron's a great character he is a great character I'm hoping he just doesn't disappear from the last two episodes he's just charging around

with a crossbow we'll see Bron we'll see Bron we'll see Bron we done anything else that's it Willie

look let me finish with this finish we said some negative shit because we're just critiquing it i understand but great episode don't lump me in with one of the people bitching about everything because it was good i enjoyed it yeah it just felt different i am enjoying it and then i'm enjoying the fact that i'm still we're still talking about it and we're taking 10 minutes out of the show to talk about it and people are enjoying it it's like yeah

whatever they're doing it right I would love to know what went on in the negotiations with HBO and the show to like get

a six episode final season but it seems forced and rushed a little bit yeah whatever hey Will

alright Will you can turn off what's his name now sorry I had to mix things up today I went wallflowers and then I went counting crows

hanging around you don't see that hanging around's a good tune then I went collective soul okay did you mix in any jars of clay

I didn't have time oh man yeah we just totally pwned Game of Thrones wow no we didn't I didn't have time. Oh, man. Yeah. We just totally pwned Game of Thrones. Wow. No, we didn't. I didn't hear any of it.

Good. What I did do some research on, though, while you guys were talking. Are you guys aware that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had their baby? They had a baby boy this morning. I did not. Congrats to the... They've not announced the name yet. Dude, I didn't know she was pregnant. I didn't either.

Yeah. Much like most of the internet didn't realize Amy Schumer was pregnant when she... I saw a quote tweet yesterday. How annoying is that? Oh my God. Have you seen her new stand-up special on Netflix? It's awful. It's so bad.

Man, I used to really like her stand-up too. I did too. I did too. It's so bad. It honestly is one of really like her stand-up. I did too. I did too. It's so bad. It honestly, like, it was one of the worst stand-ups I've ever seen. That being said, have you guys, are you familiar with Anthony Jeselnik? Yeah. Oh, yeah.

His most recent stand-up, I watched it this weekend. He's an offensive guy. And it's like he made a list of the most offensive topics he could come up with, and then he just discussed them in his most recent special that being said pretty funny okay did he talk about buffalo chicken dip at super bowl parties no he didn't oh so he should have so what no he couldn't go that controversial dude come on only two people will understand that joke uh do you want any guests so they haven't announced a name. Do you want any guesses? They haven't announced a name yet.

Do you want the odds on the names? A-odd. Yeah. Yeah. Number one, which is a one to three favorite. Please be Tanner. Albert. Albert?

Albert. Huh. I feel like you can't call your son... I feel like if your son's going to be a prince in 2019, you can't call him Prince Albert right now. Yeah, I feel like... I just feel like that being the feel like if your son's going to be a prince in 2019, you can't call him Prince Albert right now. Yeah, I feel like that's been... I just feel like that being the favorite, it's just pretty insane.

That's one you want to cancel. Yeah. Number two, Arthur. I don't hate it. It's very royal. I would like to know someone named Arthur just so I could call them Artie. I have an uncle named Arthur,

but we call him Art. Uncle Art. Okay. Number three, Alexander, eight to one. I'm not a big Alexander guyander guy for for this royal baby no number four j i think it's interesting that the first three all started with a's whoa some illuminati whoa number four james 10 to 1 number five philip 12 to 1 but there's still a phil that's alive. I feel like in order to name somebody, like if you're in the royal family, that person has to be dead. Bad question.

What's their last name? Dude, I don't really know. It's not like Polychronopolis or something? I don't know what their names are. I feel like we looked this up on a podcast recently. His full name is going to be like 10 words long yeah then the other ones on the list are lewis henry frederick thomas and edward these are all classic royal names yeah yeah yeah i don't know what they're gonna go with how about prince william cheating on uh kate did he you see that he's got

a wild side no i didn't see that oh is it on it's windsor oh okay when last week you didn't see this no it's been speculated it's been people been talking about that maybe he's been having an affair with one of her friends one of her like yeah best friends well it's he is very well known for being and harry had this before but now it's kind of william he's very well known for his exploits. I thought I always thought that was Harry. He was the wild one. It was Harry, and I think Harry's calmed down,

but William, he apparently goes out with his boys a lot. I don't know if it's Saturday when he does it, but like he spends a lot of time with his boys. You got to think most of that is being done on Saturday though. Yeah. That's kind of like their day,

the guys. Yeah. It's when the guys get together. The lads. Like they're at Wild Wings. That is it for the lads. Dude, the London Wild Wings is popping day, the guys. Yeah. It's when the guys get together. The lads. Like, they're at Wild Wings. That is it for the lads. Dude, the London Wild Wings is popping. Mm-hmm.

Yeah. Dude, they're just out there just crushing wings. They're just watching footy, just hammering points. No, I wrote about this on Peach. He went on a bachelor party to the Swiss Alps or something, and apparently his return was not very pleasant when it came to like explaining what he did all weekend with the boys i don't know kate doesn't look like someone you want to mess with she looks like she can rip you a new one she's a classy lady though

i feel like that harry's his reputation though he's got some self-inflicted wounds. Mainly the nude photos of him just being. In Vegas? Just partying naked. And then his Halloween costume one year. Feel like it's one that we need to cancel. It was the Nazi garb. Yeah, yeah.

He probably shouldn't have done that. No. Would you rather be Prince William or Prince Harry? Would you rather be king? I'd go Harry. Because you're either king one day, which is tight. Don't care. Or you get to live the rest of your life just kind of chilling.

I don't want to be king. I want to be king. I don't. Take it easy, John. Ha. Oh, shit. Don't tell Will. Oh, fuck, dude.

I don't know. I don't know the answer to that question. It's hard. Yeah, it's hard to say for real. Because being king would be tight what does it even mean king

I don't know less responsibility for Harry though I like anytime shit like this happens people just dunk on like the royal family like

why why are they don't do anything what's the point of this why are we so invested in this I still don't really know I'm one of those people

that's definitely somewhat like I definitely am interested with the royal family. The only time I get updates are when I go back home and I'm in my parents like guest bathroom and there's like a people magazine.

Yeah. And I'm like well I guess I'll flip through this. Alyssa likes the royal family. Yeah. She likes the queen. She knows. The TV show a lot.

That's okay but that's actually the historical stuff is kind of cool yeah and but now if you watch the queen it's hard not to go into the historical stuff of just seeing what's going on the bloodline i care more about the like i think the history is much more interesting i don't keep up with their day-to-day like it seems like i shouldn't should have known that maybe William was sleeping around. Sleeping around this town. Yeah, you mixed the Counting Crows with that.

Yeah. Should we get out of here? What a fun Monday episode. Should we end on that beautiful note? That was a fun epi. I enjoyed it. Yeah, I enjoyed it as well. I did too.
