All right, we're back circling back podcast. My name is Will DeFries. To my left, David Ruff. What am I supposed to do with this? Is this here for a reason? What? Do you want me to acknowledge it now or do you want me to? Why is it right there? What? I feel like I'm going to get credited with an H point if it's not if it's not addressed. I look through it. I'll do it too. Yeah, I wouldn't I? Raffa. Raffa.

Raffa. Raffa. Raffa. Raffa. It's a long time ago. Anyways, there's a there's a magazine right here between Will and I. It's a little bit closer to Will than it is me. I just want to let everybody know that it's here. You know

that distracting me. You know what else Kanye said recently. What's up? What's up, Dylan? There's some famous lore that goes along with that. What? You got something? She's an Israeli model. so I don't think he ate off would like her that much. Right. Randy. Anyway, I watched the season of season one finale, Severance last night.

I gave it five out of five waffle parties. It was very good. Very good. I will continue on to season two now and it's a great show. You're not watching it. You should watch it. Very good. I will continue on to season two now and uh it's a great show. If you're not watching it, you should watch it. Quite the endorsement. Oh, I had to say. So, I'm in a

tough spot with that show. No spoilers or anything. Just saying it's a good show. What's up, Dave? I would like to start season two. Somebody in my house wants to wait till they're all out there so we can binge it. I kind of respect the process behind you know the strategy there but from what I know about Severance it doesn't feel like a show you want to like just binge back to back to back. He just binged it. How many episodes are out season two? Five maybe?

Six? Will would know. I think uh I think six was out this week. It's getting a lot of positive uh reviews. Oh yeah. After season one it was like after season one came out it was it was Geisty. Oh it's in the Geist. It found itself square in the Geist. It's in the Geist crosshairs right now. Problem is I want wanna watch it now and I wanna be able to text like Barrett, our friend Barrett, you know Barrett. Barrett. He has a podcast where he talks about the show,

Oysters, Clams and Cockles talks about it with Ross. I wanna text him about it because he's a good guy to balance showtakes and just maybe go have a beer with, talk about it. By the time I get around, he's gonna be onto something new. Yeah, I wouldn't waste your time, the time I get around, he's going to be onto something new. Yeah. I wouldn't waste your time, dude. Yeah. Yeah. He's already on Lotus, dude.

I did not watch Lotus yet. None of us did. We're in non-Lotus. That's crazy. I'm really happy that y'all did not watch it. I meant to text. They went up against a buzz saw last night, man. Like, I feel I feel bad for it. Like, don't get me wrong. I can't wait to watch it tonight.

You were down on the All-Star game. Yeah. Yeah. I like All-Star basketball. Mac McClung. Another slam dunk championship for the young man who doesn't really play in the NBA. You don't have to reduce him like that. It's just I don't have to reduce him like that. It's just

I don't know, man. Dude, he's sick. He is sick but he, you know, he's one take. He's good. He's he's a dunking fool. His hops are insane. He's got insane. Well, he's got bunnies. Maybe he should take the leap into the NBA to make this

legit. He's trying. He's a G league guy. Somebody should give him a shot. Honestly, if you're an NBA player and you're listening right now, start to encourage your other boys who are NBA players to be in the dunk contest for us just one single time. Like it would just make things so much more straightforward in terms of my TV watching. I saw a graphic last night that he's made almost three times as much money winning the dunk contest

as he has playing professional basketball. All right, good for him. How much do you money winning the dunk contest as he has playing professional basketball. All right, good for him. How much do you make winning the dunk contest? He's made over 300K, so somewhere around 100 plus. Good for him. I'm glad he's getting the nod in that respect, but I think we're kind of doing the dunk contest to disservice.

It's good work if you can get it. He's reached the point where he should probably be getting endorsement deals based just off the dunk contest. Like if Nike wanted to toss him a bag, you can get it. You can work if you can get it. He's reached the point where he should probably be getting endorsement deals based just off the dunk contest. Like if Nike wanted to toss him a bag, I wouldn't be weirded out by that. And one.

Get a vintage and one shirt, Dave. What if he uh what if he got the bag from Big Johnson? Big Johnson shirts. Do they have bags to drop? At one point they did. They're probably still kicking in coastal communities, like beachside, like the places you have to walk through a shark head. I saw a car driving the other day who, yeah, there's a company in Austin called Peace Frog

Carpet Cleaning and they had a peace frog sticker on their car And I was like you can't call it that no That was that was already a company Yeah, you can't do that. That seems like a blatant violation of intellectual property laws Yeah, like it's bad. I think everyone knows that peace frog just made dope ass t-shirts. I'm starting a Carpet cleaning company also. Yeah. Yeah. What are you calling it? Mossimo, it's a good idea. I have one called Stussy. I'm hoping that it gets bought up by Private Ec and I can cash out. Once you get Private Ec

involved, it changes everything. Deliverables, quotas, Things of that nature for sure. Yeah, definitely. For sure. Things of that nature for sure. Yeah, definitely. For sure, things of that nature. No private equity in this company. They take out the vibes. Just sweat equity in this company. Sweat equity.

It's a thing. Randy, I have on the rundown here that you have major news. He was teasing this right when he walked in the door today. He's got something big. I don't even think we're gonna, yeah, I don't wanna do any announcements because I don't wanna bury it too much. What's your major news that you want us to put on the rundown?

Should we be sitting down for this? Yeah, yeah, are you guys sitting down? Yeah. Okay. I'm gonna take a page out of old Dylan's book here. Old Dylan. As in, before Dylan, that I want you guys to be happy for me. Like. You're going to the masters.

No, no, but I have found myself into some wealth and I don't want you guys to be jealous, but I am the current owner of $20 in Kohl's Cash. Okay. Okay. How did you acquire $20 in Coles cash? Okay. First of all, I'm hearing a lot of jealousy coming from your voice right now. I just told you not to.

I got it from Coles. I got some new luggage and I have $20 in Coles cash right now. How are you going to spend it? I probably some new jeans, so maybe some new Wranglers, some black Wranglers. That's what I'm looking at right now. You should get some new jeans. So maybe some new Wranglers, some black Wranglers. That's what I'm looking at right now. You should get some flare jeans. Hmm. Some Kendrick Blanklers.

You can get some size 29s, player. So no, I think I'm going 33 30s, which is weird, but yeah, that's not that weird, man. It's really normal. It's a really normal inseam. And I'm usually a 32 32 guy, but I tried some 3330s. I don't know it just now some people are still relatively thin with 33 or 34 ways. It's totally normal. I agree. Yeah. Yep.

Are you jealous of my close cash right now? No, I just want to make sure I don't know. Yeah, that was my major news that I am sitting on a pile of pretty much gold like a dragon. I'm gonna take the rest of the day off and just think about this. Yeah, you should roll that into fart coin. I don't think I'm gonna do that. Dude, it's going to the moon. Is it? Yeah, fart coins taking off. Dude, every time I get like upset, or not really upset, but every time I look at Twitter and I see like there's a new meme coin that people made like a lot of money on and I'm like damn, I wonder if there's like I have a friend I could talk to that could like tip me off on when to just as soon as I like have that thought something NFT Nick

post something about how like there's another rug pull somebody sold and got reimbursed for their losses I just all sorts I'm like you know what I'm better off for not really dabbling here seems to be a pretty sketchy crowd with sketchy practices that are in this industry. Yeah. But I don't know. Just wait till they audit Fort Knox. Yeah, I saw that. I didn't know that was happening.

I'd never seen what Fort Knox looked like. It feels like a mythical place. Honestly, if you'd asked me 20 years ago, I would have been like, it's not real. Do you know where it is? Kentucky? I didn't know it was in the United States. Yeah, pretty sure it was Kentucky. Is it Kentucky?

I just assumed it's built into a mountain. They should just have it multiple Fort Knox's, Fort Knox eyes, and then just have the gold in one of them. So you don't know. It's like when they kidnapped the princess And you didn't know which castle she was in it is in ah Mario style. Yeah, it is in Fort Knox, Kentucky Checks out. Sorry Doge your money and gold reserves aren't a different Fort Knox About half the Treasury's stored gold is kept at Fort Knox

They should roll that into Cole's cash. Could you imagine the wealth that the country would have? Get us out of this deficit. Easily. Got any more brain busters? I don't. I don't. I just had to be honest with you guys about my wealth. Did you guys watch the interview with Hayley Welch?

Your first interview after? I saw some highlights. Some of it, yeah. She's come from hiding, I did not see this. Yeah, yeah. I think she might have been taken advantage of a little bit in this situation. Oh, you don't think she was a mastermind

behind all this, Will? I think she's realizing it's all coming down on her. It's not great. I feel bad for the girl in a way. I don't think she was the one pulling the strings on this one. Yeah, I would like for the names behind what happened to be a little more public than they are.

I need to know who these guys pulling the strings were. Did she ever respond to NFT Nick's rap about her? I don't know. His face was all over my timeline this weekend due to a photo he took with a nice looking young woman. And then his face was just in it. NFT Nick's. I'm starting to love his face.

I love NFT Nick. I think. I don't know. Yeah. There's something about him to love for sure. I think he's a force of good. I do. I kind of think so too.

I was getting the same impression over the weekend. I was seeing some of his stuff. Like I kind of think so, too. I was getting the same impression over the weekend. I was seeing some of his stuff. Like, I kind of see a good guy. I kind of respect his takes, even though he sucks. We reserve the right to walk back these takes. Sure. Because we don't really know the full story, probably. That's good.

But he seems to be all right. That's God. You got to have a little bit more in your mouth. I'll never get over that when he was flying over like San Francisco or something in a helicopter and he thought he was getting a photo taken of himself and it was a video and it made him look like a huge nerd and he still posted it.

He clearly rented the helicopter. Yeah. Sightseeing tour. Yeah. It was a sightseeing tour. But he's on a heater. You can't, you can't like, it's hard to heave stuff at a guy

that's on that much of a heater. He's got his fastball right now. It's nice. heater. You can't like, it's hard to heave stuff at a guy that's on that much of a heater. He's got his fastball right now, it's nice. Yeah, yeah. Can I make some announcements real quick? Last week, beyond the paywall on Tuesday, we did something called Circling Back on Touching Base. This is where we took some classic segments from our former podcast, Touching Base,

and kind of broke them down. And I have to say, it was one of the most entertaining episodes we've done in a while. The patrons have loved it. And I have to say, it was one of the most entertaining episodes we've done in a while. The patrons have loved it. And I am personally excited to do another one. It's rare that I find myself crying, laughing in an episode. And that is what I've I not only was crying, laughing

before the episode, but I did it during the episode during a certain part where Dan talks about bringing a plus one to a wedding where he was not offered a plus one. There's a thread on our subreddit with a bunch of people talking about the episode and it seems to be very well received. People like it a lot. patreon.com slash circling back podcast.

Pretty, pretty Judd pretty, pretty Judd. Pretty, pretty Judd. I like Judd. Pretty, pretty Judd. I don't know. Gosh dude. Got kind of a gigantic week ahead of us here. Gigantic. Gigantic.

Okay, so you just switched them. You switched them. You don't have to switch anything when pronunciation is all vibes. Because most people say gigantic. He switched the soft and the hard Gs around and made it gigantic.

You get it? Yeah, but as you've proven, it doesn't really matter where you put them. So he didn't switch anything. That's right. It doesn't matter. He just set it away. You know what, say whatever you want

and it's gonna be just fine. Remember Chantix? Did it help you quit smoking? Oh yeah, my dad did Chantix for a little bit. In a commercial, it was just like, just do dope shit with your dad and your son. Dude, people loved it. Chantix ruled.

Yeah, people loved it. I think some people had some bad experiences with it. But I think a lot of people quit smoking. Yeah. Are you gonna be able to focus with that Kate Upton Sports Illustrator right there in front of you? More than that in a second.

ranging from hoodies joggers qz Polos outerwear even pants wash 20 gets you 20% off everything on the site if you're a first-time Orderer go make it happen row back comm wash 20? I have a question for you. What's up, man? What'd you get into this weekend? Thanks for asking. I'm trying to think back on if I hung out with you guys and make sure I included said hang and it I'm pretty sure I'm in the clear here. We didn't hang out this weekend. So I will just continue on with my. Yeah, I'm checking. We'm in the clear here. We didn't hang out this weekend. So I was continuing on with my- Yeah, I'm checking.

I'm checking. We text group, Hong. Just, it was a big weekend with the little guy. Spent a lot of the weekend with Parks. He had a baseball practice, his first one of the season. Squaw's looking good, his arm's looking strong. Love that. I picked up Zah Saturday. Homestay South Congress, I would suggest not picking up from that location.

Yeah, yeah. Anytime you need to just have a quick parking situation, South Congress usually ain't the place you want to go to. I had parked a half a mile away and then it was absolute chaos around that building. You know why? It's because the Rizler was there earlier in the week. I did not know that. Oh yeah. You asked for information to me. You guys have home slice. What is the best place to park there? That church? You get to pay, right?

Like right across the way? The church does have 35 spots marked for home slice parking, but they were all filled. There used to be, this is old man shit to talk about right now but there used to be a parking lot behind South Congress near like Joanne's and the Austin Motel and you could park there. I don't think anyone ever checked the lot. It was a nice little hidden gem. I think you could just park there without even paying if you really wanted to. And you kept it to yourself all these years. No, I didn't. I would tell everybody about it. And they've since just transferred it into just one businesses parking

where zero cars are ever parked. And it's just devastating. Very cool. Devastating. I did meet a backer though. Shout out to Daniel who came up to me. I was waiting line for my pizza and he goes, hey, what's up with this place? I was like, I started to answer his question. He goes, I'm just fucking with you, man. I'm a listener. I was tight. Shout out Daniel and his wife. Did he have white vans on?

Yeah, he did. His wife was in town for the Austin Marathon. She was running it. So hopefully she finished in a great time. Had a good time as well. My dumb ass tried to drive to the office yesterday morning during the Austin Marathon. Really?

Yeah, yeah, it didn't go well. Yeah. Yeah, it didn't go well. What route did they take? Dog, I don't know. It's kind of shaped like Texas, though. Oh, for real? Yeah. That's kind of cool.

It's kind of hard to describe the route because it literally, it's so long, it like circles the city. Sunday was a big, big day. Parks, we had a little birthday party for a little guy. His birthday is actually Wednesday, but his party was yesterday. And we went to Blazer Tag. Fuck tag. And it was kind of sick. I played both games with the kids. I got, I was a sweaty mess at the end of it. Do you blaze or did you play tag? My gun, my gun stopped working about four minutes into the 15 minute round. And so I was just a sitting duck. I was getting lit up. I couldn't shoot anybody. You should have dropped it at the bank

and just hung up there. It was terrible, man. Yeah. You shoot anybody. You should have dropped it at the bank and just hung up there. It was terrible, man. But the second game, the second game I got fourth place. Just karate chopping little kids. I got fourth place out of thirty in the second game. I held my own. Who got first?

You guys let Parks win? It's a little snot nose kid. No, Parks was getting lit up too. I heard you were camping. He was kind of not having a good time. He's like, I just can't, I can't get my gun to work. He was just getting lit up, poor little guy, but he had fun. I heard that you were just on top of a building

sniping at everyone. Yeah, I didn't climb it, I promise. No, I was a good teammate. You're the last one. Yeah. Where were you guys? Well, we just got decimated by a group of 12 year olds, but where are you?

Anyway, that was fun. That was a lot of fun. And then that's pretty much it, man. So do we get your leftover pizza today or did you not bring it into the office? We cleaned it out. Okay. Yeah, I finished it yesterday.

Okay. So you, okay, so no more Zocards for the rest of the week? Man, I think day after reheated pizza in the oven, it tastes a little bit better sometimes. Pinehouse. It's a little bit crispier. Well, do you know what the difference is? What?

That you usually take getting it to go. So you're letting it cool off anyway, and you're not getting it straight out the oven. Usually, but not always. So when you get it straight out the oven, it's gonna taste better. I eat at Pinehouse quite a bit, but when you reheat it on your own and you do it the right way, it adds a little crisp to it and it's nice, man. I wouldn't hate asking

Pine House just to do one, you know, a little extra done one day. Yeah. Completely agree with that statement. I've never had the balls to actually ask that, but I think it might be good. I will often bring it home and just throw it in the oven at 400 for like eight minutes. You've taken it to go. That's a smart thing to do. Yeah. Yeah. I told you they, I gotta shout them out.

I may have brought this up on the pod, but last time I picked up from there, they were like three minutes late with the pizza, but I had got there strategically about 12 minutes early, so I could maybe, oh, I don't know, have a beer. Oh. I planned to do that, I planned to do a pool of Dave at home size, but it was just a sea of people.

I couldn't do it. The whole city's too busy to be pulling Dave's every single time at this point. Yeah, you're right. They realized, the guy was like, hey, it'll be right out. I was like, cool, I'm hanging out. I have a beer.

Guy brings, he calls me over, he goes, hey, pizza, I went over, he did the open thing. Let me check it, shut it. He goes, by the way, man, sorry about the wait. This one's been sitting here for like 15 minutes and they're not picking it up. So do you want this? He just gave me a free pizza.

Free Zah dude, it was a gas? I went home, it was, I can't remember which one it was. It had a bunch of like a bunch of stuff on it. It's a pizza. That's a great description. Anyway, I went home with an extra pizza and I was like, here it is. So I texted in the neighbors, like, got a Zah here.

Anybody want some Zah? And they were like, no. So I just had a Zah. here. Anybody want some ZAW? And they were like, no. So I just, I just had a ZAW. 15 minutes. I feel like I've missed my 15 minute window pickup before that. Randy, it wasn't even 15 minutes. It was like 15 minutes from when I got there, but I was early. They said eight o'clock I got, it was ready at like eight Oh four.

It's like, you didn't have to do this. I think the guy was just a nice guy So, you know, I went home with an extra pizza. They're real ones there, dude It's the only place in Austin I've ever forgotten my wallet and the guy told me not to worry about it Because you're here all the time, man That's huge. It's like we'll get this one. I'm like really like I just spent like $24 Like you can't just give it to me for free. You said that pizza has been there So if like I'm saying if I put a pizza in for 7.30

and I showed up at 7.45 and someone just gave away my pizza, I'd be pretty upset. I think there was more, I think they fucked it up or something. They'd probably just remake you the pizza if they gave it away. Stop overthinking this fucking shit, Randy. Are you saying you don't believe me?

I'm just saying that I'd be upset if someone gave me my pizza. Call Mr. House right now. I'll call him, I'll call him. Mr. Pint, Mr. Pint House. You like that joke. Don't it's not that great. It's fine.

Wasn't my greatest. Were you done with your weekend? Yeah. Yeah. What that boy get into? Yeah, go ahead, Dave. You know what it is. Yeah. Four nations.

Oh, Friday night. Friday night, man, the Lutes Group Text was kind of activating in a major way. There's a lot of hype behind this USA, Canada. A lot of bad blood. A lot of people upset. A lot of people booing the Natty, the Natty anthem. Like, come on now. No, dude, that rules. Dude, I love it. That rules.

Anyone mad about an anthem getting booed is just lame. That's soft. Well, that game, that couldn't have gone any better, right? Got the dub, threw hands, had some squabs right there. Four puck drops. I mean, come on. From coverage start, through the national anthems, through the first nine seconds of game time,

through the first period, it's like the most excited I've ever been to sit in front of a TV in years. That was electric. Yeah. They totally blew All-Star Weekend out of the water. sit in front of a TV in years. That was electric. Yeah. They totally blew All-Star Weekend out of the water. Yeah. I'm an NBA guy, but I mean, you just got me. Yeah, you had your dunk contest was good,

but this was all about hockey. When you got on Twitter after watching the first period and like the first NBA highlight that you saw is Wemby and Chris Paul cheating to win like a skills competition. It's just like, why would I ever turn that on at this point? That's such a dork vibe thing to do. It's such a Chris Paul thing to do.

The skills competition. They said it was Wemby's idea. What did they do? Instead of taking the actual shots, you're supposed to go up and try to like hit a shot. They just took the balls and just like threw them so they could have a speed play around and take the penalty rather than actually sit there and try to make a shot.

They found a loophole, but they were, they were DQ'd anyway. Okay. And not Dairy Queen. Yeah. Maybe they should have found a hoop hole. Oh, that's good. Really good. That's for well. Saturday.

Final T ball. Practice game practice and game of the year of the season. Man, what did that thing just limp to the finish line? It is good weather. Kids were just they were ready to be done with it. It was fun. We had a good season. Had a good time. Got a trophy and that's what matters. Everybody got a trophy. Oh, participation trophies. Oh my god. Yeah, I know, man. Don't get me started on that. Oh. Doge needs to investigate that. Or is it doge?

People are wondering. Yeah, man. It's fine. Fine. We had a good time. Saturday night, low-key night. Found myself at 1030 doing some nugs, Will. Dude, hell yeah. What'd you hit? 10.30 doing some nugs, Will.

Dude, hell yeah. What'd you hit? I hit, geez, Ken Koon, Cabo. Just threw it on and just had it on. Check out any of that widespread panic return? No, I didn't. Electric stuff, dude. You'd be shocked to learn I've never been a panic guy. Well Shout out Jimmy. He's back from having a cancer. I had a pledge brother who had a panic sticker on his car though

Shout out to him Yesterday Did some did some pruning did some some trimming up of the rosebush It's some yard work. Fuck. Yeah It was outside quite a bit cedar kind of blew back in a mean way brother I was kind of hit hard over uh weekend by the uh, the allergies. Oh buddy Welcome to hell brother you too Oh, but i've had like a science infection since tuesday and I thought I was at the tail end of it friday

And then this weekend was just something happenedo. Something happened Tuesday of last week. Something happened in this city. Really? I was down so bad last week. Hmm, still can't get me. Well, I'm different. Not getting me. I'm more in touch with nature than you are.

It affects my body more. Maybe you're such an inside guy that going outside just wrecks your shit. You think about that, you dumb idiot? No, I didn't mean that. I'm sorry. No when Mother Nature changes. I feel those changes Not you. Oh, you're in tune. Okay tune with the earth Dylan. Yep. Yep last night SNL. We'll talk about it later I did the 50th anniversary thing and dude, I've got some freaking takes I Mean what a weekend for your boy. Didn't see you guys at a perpetual groove on Thursday night.

Did you guys skip out after the juice leg set? Once they did sprouts, I was out. So I went to a concert on Thursday night, a jam band called perpetual groove They were big big in the rotation about 2006 2007 for me So I thought you know, I'd give them a nod. Let's go. Let's go see these guys they had a band opening called juice leg who was a mainly instrumental and

They did a two-part song about how much the Sprouts grocery store sucks. And at one point while the drummer was doing a solo during that song, the keyboard player just pushed his mic away and just started screaming, stock faster, stock faster. So I think these guys might've worked at Sprouts and they just hate that fucking place. So you didn't mention that it was a no lyric song. Yeah, no lyrics. How do you, except for him screaming at the drummer, not on the microphone. I don't really count that. Is stock faster, like a music guide term or is that like, like, is that a

no, like stock the shelves. Yeah. Stock the shelves, man. I would have never expected a bunch of guys who work together at Sprouts to form a jam band. Yeah. Who would have thought? Yeah.

Right. I just find it interesting that you can write a diss song about something without, without any lyrics. I never expected a bunch of guys who worked together at Sprouts to form a jam band. Yeah. Who would have thought? Yeah, right? I just find it interesting that you can write a diss song about something without any lyrics. Dude, it was tight though. If you could pull it off and you can feel their pain. Dude, I could. It's pretty intense.

I could feel the pain. And then I could feel the moment when I think they were either quitting or leaving. I'm not really sure which one, but you could see that there was some salvation at the end of the tunnel and it was like, all right, we're here. Fuck Sprouts. Rebirth. I'll never be able to look at Sprouts the same again. Like the song worked.

Sprouts has great produce. I'll continue to go there. Oh, very recently applied at Price Studio. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was quite the performance from our friends over at Juice Like. I do think the bass players got something special going on. So if you want to up their monthly listeners on Spotify from 18 to more more go check them out Friday I saw something on Friday that I haven't seen on a golf course in a really long time Dave if I think you know Spanish Oaks a little bit better than Dylan does I think it's hole 14 Very narrow par 4 with an elevated green. Oh, yeah, kind of have to hit some very straight shots on this hole

Well, our friend Ryan had a ball right in the middle of the fairway elevated green. You kind of have to hit some very straight shots on this hole. Well, our friend Ryan had a ball right in the middle of the fairway. He poked it out there with his driver and just absolutely went out Drano from 115. I'm really proud of myself for not being on my phone and enjoying the moment in the moment with him because there's a very good chance that like,

if I like anyone you're with might just be looking at their phone for a sec while someone hits an approach shot. Seeing it drain was like one of the most exciting things I've had happen in a long time. Got to got to do one of these. What do you do? Oh, dude. Yeah, like it was immediate. What? What everybody shoot? You know, you know, well might have walked out of there with 91. Two triples didn't help my case. I was kind of putzing around the greens like I

didn't care. I need to hone in a little bit more on my wedge game. And so, you know, we'll be better. Being that Friday night was Valentine's day, we decided to order some, Dave, I don't know if you're familiar with this, chicken piccata from noted restaurant Sammy's. We did a little chicken piccata,

little luma che ala vodka, little cheesecake. Where do you park to pick up from Sammy's? So I didn't actually go pick it up, my wife did. What I've been told is that if you go pick up there, you can give your car to the valet and they'll turn it around for you and have it waiting for you as you leave. That's a nice touch.

It's a nice touch, it's a nice touch. So yeah, we just had a nice little quiet night in Saturday huge day. I got a package from my dad I'm looking at it. You're probably wondering what your dad sent you He sent me a couple prints from Disney World that I had in my room as a kid that I'm putting up in my son's room But he also included about I don't know a dozen pieces of Red Wings memorabilia from my past, an autographed Gordie Howe ornament, an autographed Gordie Howe picture,

had some magazines from former Stanley Cups, and then he also decided to include the 2012 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue starring Kate Upton. That you leaked. Yeah, it's in mint condition as Dylan, I don't know why Dylan said this earlier, but Dylan said he was surprised

that none of the pages were stuck together. I did say that. But it's in very good condition. May I? Yeah, you may. You can look through it. You can page through. Yeah, people forget that I leaked that cover, but you know.

It's an interesting story. I wonder if there's still even any new stories. How they landed in Harbor Springs, Michigan before other places Still is still a mystery to me Let's see if it's still online Here we go e online baby Kate Upton and sports illustrate the swimsuit model speak out about cover leak There's this is a real enos dude

Kate Upton sent a mass text to her family and friends when she learned she had this year's honor Things don't always go according to plan the 2012 Sports Illustrated issues cover girl usually revealed Is usually revealed on the late show with David Letterman this year? However, we found out early that Kate Upton had bestowed the honor. William DeFries spotted the cover at a Walgreens in Michigan on Monday, pre-Letterman, and then shared it with Barstool Sports, and pretty soon it was everywhere. Nina Agdahl in here too. I saw that. Wait, you really shared it? How did you get it to Barstool? What did you do?

I just sent an email. I was sitting in my bedroom and I saw a commercial for, I was off that day, I wasn't working that Monday. And so I was sitting in my bedroom and I saw a commercial that was like, revealing the cover on Letterman that night. And I was like, I just got this from the store. Like it's right here. And I was like, and I Googled from the store. Like it's right here. And I was like, I Googled it,

didn't see anything about the cover. And I was like, that's weird. Somebody got fired. Yeah, probably. No, I think someone got fired at the Walgreens that I got it from, because they put it out early. And so I just, I think I,

like this was before Barstool is what it is now. Yeah. Like it was like Prez and like four other people working in an office. So who'd you send it to? Like was it a person or just? I just sent it to Dave at Barstoolsports.com because that's where it said to do tips.

Did you, no way. And then he posted it. He said he was gonna send me a purple starfish lacrosse jersey, which was a hot Barstool item at the time. I remember that one. He never sent it to me though. He owes you one. He owes me one.

He should have hat tipped you. He did hat tip me. Let me give you that. should have hat tipped you. He did hat tip me. He did. He did hat tip me. Yeah, I had a few back and forth because he tried to strong arm me and tell me that it wasn't real. And then I think it was TMZ called me and they're like, so is this a thing you do? You just make fake covers and leak them? And I told the guy, I said, fuck you. don't call my phone randomly and then accuse me of doing that. And he goes, all right, I was just trying to fuck with you. So it's legit.

And I was like, yeah, it's legit. I don't know how TMZ even got my phone number. Dude, it's like you broke the Pentagon papers. Yeah, TMZ calling me out of nowhere. I just looked at my phone and I had a call from Hollywood, California. Was it this guy? I was like, what's going on?

And what year was this again? 2012. 2012. Okay. For like, what's going on? And what year was this again? 2012. 2012. Okay. For context, there's an eastbound and down advertisement in there. I mean, for context, they were releasing the covers on Letterman.

That's crazy. I don't remember that. Like that's a long time ago. What are you looking at? I'm trying to find the tweet. Did he tweet it? Oh, I don't know. He probably, if he's smart,

he's probably deleted all the tweets from that time. This is before Private Ed got involved in Parstool, you know? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I don't know. He didn't like, at me or anything like that. Like he just had tweeted about it, yeah.

So that was kind of funny. Yeah, I think this is just gonna live in the office now. Should I get it framed? That'd be weird. No, it wouldn't. I think you've got the Detroit, the Detroit connection with Verlander and Upton. True. Uh that's pretty

much it but still it's Kate Upton. Just put it in the bathroom. Alright, give this guy a point. Chill out, dude. Give yourself a point when we get back out there. Yeah. What are you doing, Randy? What? You always take it just a little too far, man. You do. You

know, you just need reading material. It's not that big of a deal. Yeah, rest of the week, let's chill. Ended up breaking down a ton of cardboard the other day. You know, Dave is really good at that. I had, I had fun, dude. I had fun. We

had an empty recycling that I could just fill up. I was just cruising out there and you know what I did last night, dude? Come come on I obviously shut down the weekend at Mattel Ranchos, Mattel Ranchos, Mattel Ranchos, Mattel Ranchos, Mattel Ranchos People are wondering what I got. You ready for this? What'd you get? I Suppose some fajitas. Oh chicken beef both shrimp

Beef I thought about asking if people wanted to add a half pound of shrimp, just do a little surf and turf, but I didn't get the vibe that people wanted to add any shrimp. So we just rolled with the fajitas. They've been good lately, man. They've been hitting, dude.

They've been hitting. I've been craving some fofos. Saw a few different backers in the situation. You can say it like the lady on Great British Baking Show. I like to make my husband fajitas. Oh, that's cute. Fajitas. She goes, no, I like to make fajitas for him.

Or as he calls him, fajitas. That's an electric British person joke. Fajitas. That's cute. And that joke. Vegeta's. It's cute. That was really it, man. That was really it. How's the salsa last night? Dude, I've actually been a fan of how spicy the salsa's have been. It's good. You know why? Because it turns some lesser able people away. Some more for you.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Randy could never, dude. I could. Randy could never. I definitely could.. I definitely get an ulcer. What? I don't know. That might be somebody else in my family. You guys know that. I'm sorry. Oh, yeah, I will say the sons do not like the hot salsa.

That's betterhelp, H-E-L betterhelp.com slash circling. Man. We got a situation. Man. I I'm not happy about this. I can't wait to see how you broach this subject. So, I worked from home Friday morning before heading out to the golf course and I got a text that I didn't like. I didn't like it. Who sent the text? Me. Randy. He was the first to course and I got a text that I They may perhaps abuse the parking lot privileges a little bit but they were cool enough that we just kind of let it slide They're also Australian enough that it was like there's kind of wild down there. Like let's just let them do it And they were suffering from success. They just were hiring too many people exactly people in there one time Yeah

Like I wasn't gonna I wasn't gonna knock our guys over there for growing the business too fast Like good for you guys make our lives hell over here But when they moved we were like, alright, we get our parking lot back, you know, watch media. We get five spots. We get five spots. Guaranteed. Guaranteed. Allegedly.

New people move in, construction out the wazoo. We got contractors here at all time. This parking lot has been just a war zone of F250s. GCs, subs. In trailers and yeah, subs. You show up, like if you show up after 9.30, you might not get a parking spot. Yeah.

That's not how it should work in life. And what's weird to me is the Australian people, they like completely renovated that space there and it was awesome, like very, very well done and these these people just gutted it Mm-hmm. Well, they've also done something even worse They've taken our parking lot. They've desecrated it. Mm-hmm. They have put up custom parking signs in two spots in our parking lot Designating them only for their business reserved parking designating them only for their business. Reserved parking. So,

how many spots are there just just between our two offices because there's three in the complex. There's two and there's like sevenish over here. I was going to say six or seven. Six. So, you're counting right now but yeah, we'll say

six. So, eight total. You're just going to take a quarter of it. Our lease, our lease says however, does it say you get to reserve spots on your own and put up signage that says so. Well, fuck it. Let's do it. I have emailed our property manager just for clarification. I'm not like, dude, the park.

This isn't a complaint. I'm just like, hey, my email says I'll make sure this is on the up and up. This email was sent out Friday afternoon or Friday morning, they have yet to get back to me on it. Well, to be fair, I actually thought you saying the email to management was completely in bounds. I thought you towing both of their cars was kind of fucked up.

Yeah, I probably shouldn't have done that. Here's the part that kind of bothers me a little bit and maybe it shouldn't, I don't know. What you're about to say is gonna be what comes back to haunt us. They haven't made contact with us yet. No. They haven't said hello or like sorry about the construction mess that's been ruining your lives for the past five weeks. They don't wave at us when they're vaping outside. Yeah, they're outside all the time checking the mail and vaping and they don't like, hey what's up neighbor?

Nothing like that. They're not being friendly enough to put up signs like that. They're not being jerks though, but they're not being friendly enough to just toss up signs. No, but this feels like a shot. It does feel like a shot. So we're allowed five spots.

I think we get five wash media parking signs and I think we put them up in the five premier spots. So we just hand write them? Yep. I think I've counted, they have five people over there, maybe six. So someone is going to, there's not enough spots. There's not 10 spots right down here.

Now there's, there's a parking, there's more parking up above, but that's for the legends. Now I've parked up there before. They rarely fill that parking lot out. They, the legends are the other people in this. We just call them the legends. They're there. They're we've got a good relationship with them.

Well, there's only better. Happy hour was standing. Yeah. If you remove the happy hour they skipped from us, then yeah, we've got a good relationship. Yeah, they call, no call, no show to us. Yeah. They had an emergency. It's okay. Allegedly. Like what angles do we have at these signs? It's like, you know, they're forced to make contact with us tomorrow morning.

Exactly. Because we are holding two of their packages right now. Three now. The FedEx lady, she wrote a little note and put it on their door saying that we have their packages. I think we take the note off the door. I think we leave their packages outside and I think we hope that one of them gets stolen overnight. I don't hate it. No, I think we should take the signs down to make it really evident. If we do it today while they're out for President's Day, they won't even know it was us and maybe they'll assume management came in.

I've not looked at the sign. Are they on a... Do they do a concrete? Yes. So they did this professionally? Yeah, they had it. I saw the contractor that was doing it. Can we put wash media stickers on it?

We've got a fuck ton. So you might not think this is that big of a deal and and and it's probably not. It's probably not but so they are guaranteed no matter what this parking spot looks like if there's like a some kind of issue and there's a bunch of contractors they are guaranteed two spots. So all I'm saying is and it's two spots there's that is next to their office. They, all I'm saying the spots closest to their office, they better not fucking sniff the two closest spots next to our office. I kinda want Randy, this feels like a job

for instead of the sign, what if you do like a fun Randy paint job in the parking spot, so let them know those are wash spots. What if we take, what if we got, what if instead of using the paint to paint the parking lot, what if we painted Slutmobile on one of their cars? What if we went Tom Green on them?

He's back in Vogue. He is back. Are you going to watch his documentary, Dave? Absolutely. It's got a documentary coming out. I haven't thought about him in 15 years. He's kind of right for a documentary. Well, what if I put the Matt's O'zo Rancho bumper sticker on one of their cars?

I'm sorry I took it off, dude. I feel bad. I was in a bad mood that day. The truck nuts. I was in a bad mood that day. I wonder if his documentary is gonna include his role in the TFM movie. You know?

Probably something they're gonna gloss over. Yeah, I think that might be something he doesn't care about. Yeah. For some reason. I can't believe you all outsourced that to Canada to get made. It's like the least tax breaks. Yeah, it was reason. I can't believe you all outsourced that to Canada to get made. It's like the least tax breaks.

Yeah, it was a tax play. It's the least frat thing in the world. Don't say y'all like we did it. We didn't make, we had nothing to do with making this movie. Fun fact, we had like really no say in what was in that movie at all. Yeah, you think those jokes were written by us? No.

You know, part of me wishes I had been a Grand Ex before, cause you know that, you Dylan probably knows that. That was like a whole, they having to fly with with our outside council at that point to do negotiations in LA about the movie and about all that stuff and it just would have been a fun thing to be a part of. Yeah. Until the movie got made and you realize it was not good. That's life when you're a motherfucking frat star.

Now you did write that part. That you're a motherfucking frat star. That's how the movie ends. It's true though. Still never saw it. Never saw one single minute of it. Not great. It's really terrible. And there's an egregious rape scene

that is just completely glossed over. Personally, I think all of them are egregious. Yeah. No, that's fair. It was a tasteful rape scene. It was a young man was drugged and raped Rodriguez then like the plot just went on a drigas Adria Adria Adria Adria Adria Adria this is gonna ruin the show. It was a drigas. We got a

Drigas dude. No, but he was raped and then like They just like oh, okay What's next and I use a frat guy? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, he's a frat guy though. Yeah, he's a frat. Oh, he's a brother for life, doesn't matter. He's in a frat, he probably raped somebody else. Yeah. Anyway. So yeah.

So he's parking spots, huh? I'm angry about the spots. Like I don't like, we are the old guard here. We have been here longer than anyone else. And I don't know why we are treated lesser than. Is it because we are a small to mid-sized media company that people think they can just like throw around? I just want to know how these spots came to be.

I want to know if they have to pay, if they paid extra for them, or if they just negotiated that in their lease terms, or what happened. I want to know if they did it because they're allowed to do it, or they just said, fuck it, we're going to claim these spots. I'm happy to negotiate on our part.

Yeah. You're doing a lot. I think I'm just gonna Joe over there and give him a piece of my mind. You're gonna Joe over there? Okay. Yeah, they're gonna be really confused by this segment. No, I was like, dude.

I worry about it. They look really nice. Yeah, no, they look nice, and that's this segment. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I worry about it. They look really nice. Yeah, no, they look nice, and that's kind of why I'm annoyed by it, is because I'm like, wait, are you taking advantage of our niceness? I just wish there had been like a, hey, maybe we should try to make some meatballs and bring them over. Why don't we give them a gift of gumbo? Yeah.

Whose responsibility is it? Let's give them clam chowder. Give them the jifta jumbo. Yeah, the jifta jumbo could go a long way here. Whose responsibility is it to make the other feel, who makes contact? Here's the thing, we have no reason to ever walk to their side of the complex. They walk to our side to check their mail, to throw out garbage, to do whatever. They have a million opportunities to knock and say, hey, I look like Will's wife and I'm older than her.

She does. Okay. She does. to do whatever. They have a million opportunities to knock and say, hey, I'm, I look like Will's wife and I'm older than her. Plus, I'm gonna meet you guys. She does. She's old-time. They seem nice. They seem nice. That's honestly the shocking thing about it. It's just annoying, dude.

Their mannerisms are the same. It's weird. You know that, I mean, you guys, obviously all the listeners know that I'm a diva when it comes to parking. It just really rubs me the wrong way when you try to claim like land in the parking lot That's not yours. Our lot parking on the street isn't bad. But here's the deal uh There's been at least four or five occasions where i've walked out there and there's just broken glass because somebody got their their shit rocked Yeah, they got theirs their car broken into it's not the worst part of town to park on the street, but like, you don't want to.

Yeah, there's some there are sketchy people walking around at times. Let me let me just explain to you the difference. The Australians, I was leaving work one day walked in my car, and there's just big black truck. And it's just the two Australians when they first moved in, they rolled down the window and said, Hey, you work that building? Went, yeah. Like, oh, we're your new neighbors and just started chatting with me. That's how you

make an introduction. These people, none of that. Also the shout out Harrison, the main Australian guy and his wife, girlfriend, girlfriend, Lou, lover. He does, I don Lover. He does like badass shit, like motocross. Yeah. He's alpha. He like just, he redid the landscaping just on his own. He's just like, you know what? We're gonna do this now. Well, something I appreciate about him is that he was

willing just to come over and knock on our door solely to complain about the management company. Yeah, just do pop-ins. It's like, yeah, I could easily, I could listen to you talk shit about our management company all day. I like a pop-in. They had a party over there that Randy went to.

Yeah, a little movie. And he didn't like the landscaping out front. He just ripped it out himself and put new landscaping in just for this one event. And then they moved out like a few months later. Dog behavior. I think he made the property management company pay for it. Like I think he told him.

He said he was going to. I don't know if that ever, I don't know if that bill went through. It looks good too. Yeah. It's got more of a Southwest feel. It's a zero scape. It is.

It's a zero scape. I have this Squarespace in my backyard that I might turn into a zero scape situation. I like that. It's just so easy to customize, you know what I mean? You know what else is easy? That's also Squarespace that's easy to customize? Squarespace. Squarespace, yeah, Squarespace.

SNL 50. SNL 50. Everyone knows Dave and I are SNL boys Yeah, I have um, i've fallen off on watching every every saturday, but Will will often be like no, this is a good one. You should check this out or i'll take recommendations. I'll go back and watch but uh 50 years this show from probably for me probably from the early 90s, 1990 through time I left for college was appointment television. I rarely missed a Saturday. And last night they brought out the big guns to celebrate 50 years. When I say the big guns I mean did you happen

to see the audience and who was in attendance? Yeah yeah the audience shots were one of the most entertaining parts of the entire thing because it was like what which insanely famous people are gonna be sitting next to each other. That was masterful they did a a crowd work segment with Amy Poehler and Tina Fey where they you know did some rehears like, stay some questions from the crowd and it would be like Peyton Manning or John Hamm or you look in the crowd, it's like, hey, there's Kevin Costner, there's Pete Davidson,

there's Meryl Streep, Julia Louis-Dreyfus had a funny bit and sitting next to a dog, sitting next to Adam Driver. Dude, everybody was there, Tom Hades Hager Joe was in front of her scar Joe who's married to Colin Yost Oh, that's right or a con ghost Um anyway It was I apply this one. It was really good. Yeah, it's what i'm trying to tell you and um

I what's all fucking three hours of this thing. It was three hours long three hours long. Oh shit I'm trying to tell you and uh what's all fucking three hours of this thing? It was three hours long. Three hours long. It went long. Oh **** You know what also threw me for a loop David? That it was on Sunday night. We were wondering. Is it

entertaining throughout? Highs and lows. I will say the second half of the show which they joked about how like typically you can kind of tune out, fall asleep to. Second half of the show is electric. Eddie Murphy, there's a lot of Eddie Murphy in this. I don't know how much Eddie Murphy you've consumed from his days and his stand up days

and his SNL days. I kind of wondered if he still had it as far as like his ability to do something like this and to kind of co-mingle, mix, do a sketch with like some younger people. Him and Keenan, Keenan Thompson, they did a scared straight bit. You're familiar with scared straight. Yeah.

Your boy Sudeikis was there. And they brought out Will Ferrell. That might've been the highlight of the night. You kind of saw Eddie Murphy break a little bit. You had vintage Will Ferrell, like absurd character, just getting in somebody's face. That's worth it. Weekend update was awesome.

Were you surprised they didn't roll out Tina Fey and Amy Poehler even though they did the monologue? I still thought that they would give them the nod, another nod during weekend update. I thought so too. There's like a bunch of, I can't believe they didn't do this character or this sketch. And when you think about how many iconic ones there've been, you're like, yes, someone's

going to get left off. 50 years is so many skits to go back and do that. It was just like, you know what, just get the funniest ones out there and make everyone laugh for the 50th and not just make it like a nostalgia porn. They ran, they ran the Debbie Downer sketch. She was a bartender and like Jimmy Fallon, Drew Barrymore, our Girl From The Bear, even Robert De Niro were there celebrating

and then you had Debbie Downer doing her bit. That's still hit. It was really good. Musical guests, you might be wondering. I thought there was a bit of a miss on the Miley song selection. Yeah, she looks great. She did. I saw there was a put a horny point up for me. A Tom Hanks one. They got uh some folks a little upset. Tom Hanks one. I'm uh I so I missed

the first hour of it doing bedtime. Sally walked in from uh putting Fritz down during the Miley performance. And the first thing she said was, Miley looks great. And I go, yeah. And she goes, that's quite a reaction. Okay.

I was like, yeah, I was already thinking about it. They did a Nothing Compares, the Prince slash Sinead O'Connor later covered. Nothing compares. A great song. Nothing what pairs? To you. I didn't think it was great.

Yeah, they could have let her go a little bit more. I didn't think it was great. You had Lil Wayne with the Roots band. Did you see the takes after that? No. People weren't, I think it, I mean, okay. Lil Wayne really wanted to do the Super Bowl in New Orleans, halftime show.

And I think there were some people saying like, yeah, maybe they dodged a bullet by not letting Lil Wayne do the halftime show for the Super Bowl in New Orleans. He was fine. He did a medley. Yeah. Which, okay.

It just made me feel like I was at a party in like 2010, which was kind of dope. Sounds great. Kind of dope. Like before all of the fame from the Sports Illustrated cover thing. Yep. Then you had Paul McCartney, Sir Paul McCartney, who,

you know, from the beat. He got through it. He was Paul McCartney. That was cool to see. But all in all, worth it. The sketches are out there. You don't have to watch the whole thing start to finish. Go back and watch. There's some really good moments from it. I'm excited to go back and watch what I missed last night in the beginning, but I'm more excited to go back and watch the SNL 50 musical stuff from Saturday or Friday, whatever night it was. Yeah.

They did like a whole concert and I think, I think that's going to be more entertaining for me. Dylan, I don't know if you saw your boy Post Malone linked up with the remaining members of Nirvana. Oh. Dave Grohl. For a musical member? Cheated on his wife. He dead. Second family. He came clean on social media.

Ew. He dead also. Was it good? Yeah. Nobody remembers this, but during COVID, like early lockdown days, he did a live stream with Travis Barker on drums, him on guitar, and then somebody else, I can't remember who, and they did like a bunch of Nirvana songs. They might've done like all of Nevermind and it was excellent, but it was weird because they were allegedly all in separate rooms or separate places, but I don't think they really were. So they all had isolated cams, whatever. So I knew he had this in his bag. He's Post Malone.

He's very versatile, right? I didn't know he could play a guitar like that. Oh yeah. Okay. And Dave Droll was part of this. Sure. Okay. Here we go.

It was good. They did smells like teen spirit. I saw mostly positive reviews. It was good. If you didn't think it was good, then you're just a hater. Yeah, I think there's a lot of like old Gardner, Bono fans are like, it's not Nirvana without Kurt. Yeah, obviously.

Obviously, he passed away, though, tragically. But we got Randy out of it. Yeah, yeah. I was born on the day that he died. So there you go. Was that any Sandler? Sandler did a song. I was going to talk about that. Worthier. He did kind of like the nice funny with some sweet moments in it,

like 50 years song, a lot of it like an ode to Lorne Michaels. He shouts out Chris Farley, the people who have come and gone Chris Farley, Norm MacDonald. It was really cool, that's worth seeing too. I need to watch it. Made me wanna get back into SNL. I'm sick of the slander out there. Like I know SNL, they have bad sketches every episode. You gotta get through those bad sketches.

But there's no other show out there like that doing it They've been doing it for 50 years. They get really big name hosts. They get good musical guests I just think that people are way too hard on it in general and you just need to sit back and enjoy the if you if you don't like it, then just go to YouTube the next day and Just go see which skits have been watched the most and I guarantee you're gonna laugh at least one of them Come on. It's been good lately, too Dude, it's been good lately. We can update usually delivers every time we can up even if I don't watch So I watch probably 75% of the episodes all the way through even the ones that I don't watch

I will just go watch weekend update just because it's it's always funny. It's always funny when they write their jokes for each other Like I know I'm about to laugh my ass off. Yeah, they do a great job. Woody Harrelson, Tom Hanks, Steve Martin, Scar Joe, Sabrina Carpenter did a song with Paul Simon, De Niro. Tough, tough look for Paul Simon. He's give him a he's old and he's tiny. I mean, having having her appear to be slightly taller

than you is just tough. Miles Teller made an appearance, look good. Mike Myers, Mike Myers, good to see him. Yeah, but Shagadelic, baby. Smashing, baby. I heard from him in a minute. Exactly, he was cool. Mike Myers, Anetti Murphy?

Randy Bad Bunny. Yes, he's Shrek. Oh, all right. I don't think I could identify a bad bunny song. There's a little something about me. That's pretty sick. Well, your guy Mulaney. Ever since he got his new jawline, I like him more. I'm a very dumb guy. I didn't realize he was a writer on SNL. Yeah. Never knew that. I wonder if I like loved any of his sketches or if I thought they were pretty bad.

I probably liked them. Why'd you get roasted for that? For not liking John Mulaney? Yeah. I don't know. My take looked pretty good for a little bit when he was like not getting canceled, but kind of getting shit on for maybe being a philanderer.

But like, I didn't ask for that. I just said, I didn't really find it. I just said I didn't really find it. I just find him to be smarmy in his standup delivery. And I don't think that's a take that I should be, you know, criticized for. Yeah. He was good. New in town.

Chapelle. Chapel. Yeah, it was good. Why is Miley always got it? Why don't they let Miley do any of her songs? There's always gotta be like a cover. No, just run around and just do Jolene again. I can't know Gollin you see too much. Yo, stop trying to shit. Yeah, you too get it. Get it, correct If you're if we're gonna do a bit do it fucking right. Oh, yeah, that's the J, isn't it?

Obviously god job, dude John damn it obviously. God, John, dude. Do you think new listeners are like, alright, well, this is a little bit. Yeah. I tried. If they're not, if they're not annoyed with that, wait till they see what I got in store

for them. I made it 63 minutes saying I've had enough. These guys. Have to say, might be the final Shrink the Game. What? Why? I'm getting killed by the Burnerverse right now. If you guys aren't familiar with Shrink the Game, Shrink the Game is a segment where I break down certain factors of the Burnerverse, which is a guys aren't familiar with Shrink the Game. Shrink the Game's a segment where I break down certain factors of the Burnerverse,

which is a bunch of frat dudes who created anonymous accounts so they can tweet at each other. We have a little community now. Something appeared on the timeline over the weekend. Randy, can you bring up this tweet, please? This guy's hilarious. All right, I got the image here. Dude.

This dude went absolutely off with his outfit. He hit him with the dirty white ons, the ankle socks that show the sock. Those are shit golf socks. He hit him with a five inch inseam, maybe less. He might've hit him with the TFM, the zero inch inseam. And then he's got the sunglasses backward around the neck. Coasters, mind you.

Pretty sure those are coasts. Those are coasts, you're right, you're right. And then he's doing something that we've traditionally only seen sorority girls do, not fraternity men. He's lampshading his Peter Millar over his shorts to the point where you can barely even tell that he has pants on. Here's the question I have.

Is it frat to go to the bar looking like Donald Duck? Here's the question I have. Is it frat to go to the bar looking like Donald Duck? I think your tweet on this was well said. He just refuses to be caught in a medium. Dude, can- He won't be caught dead in a medium malar. Imagine if this dude didn't wear this size large and he walked into the bar with a medium

and one of his boys came up and gave him one of these. Oh! He's just like, fuck it. He bought a whole new wardrobe of polos just in all larges just so he wouldn't be caught in a medium. This is like the size of this thing is like Howe Sutton playing Colonial 1997. Like the sleeves probably go down his wrist. The sleeves touch his elbow almost. It's insane. I feel like he didn't want to try it on in the clubhouse, so he just said he was gonna buy one

and just got home and was like, damn. Well, not going back to that golf course anytime soon. Do you tuck it? You tuck the shirt? Dude, if you tuck it and you're just big sleeve guy, you can get away with that. But that's a very flowy, wide shirt. It'll look pretty silly.

It's a parachute. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah I have a shirt that's kind of like this that I bought without trying it out in the pro shop And I only wear it tucked in underneath something on a cold day I can't I can't wear it. Otherwise it's This dude's not like not bother anybody. He gets sniped by somebody and then he's like The guy on on burner verse. I wonder wonder if he's been made aware of this.

He knows. Did you know when you put that shirt on with those shorts? You look in the mirror and you know you're like man this this is probably not the best combo I had but like I haven't done laundry. I want to go straight to the bar. So yeah he's like this is what I'm going in with. I might have some of the boys roasting me a little bit. Didn't know I was gonna be the main character in the Burnerverse. But he's the main character today. It's tough, it's tough.

Well, I tweeted about this this morning because when I woke up this morning, I just had one single notification. And this is why I think I might be out on the Burnerverse. I'm getting harassed right now. This guy said, where's the tweet? I have too many tweet, dude, I have too many mentions. A guy explained to me what was going on here,

that there's an aversion. And I said, well, yeah, I've been covering the burner verse for months now. His name is Bubba Boxmuncher Jones. He burnsplained it? He burnsplained it. His profile photo is a photo of Hitler wearing a Make America Great Again hat.

Okay. Okay, political statement. Yeah, which was not how I was anticipating starting my week. And so I tweeted that I wasn't anticipating starting my week with that. And then Treytron Martian 3000. I think that's a Trey Von Martin illusion

right there. Okay. Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah. He called me a twink. They've since called me other names that I won't say on a podcast because I think we'd get in trouble and I just don't want to. But yeah, he said lick my balls. He also said Hitler was misunderstood. So Twitter is a great place right now to hang out. The Burnerverse is cooking. Fox Monster Jones. Yeah, be careful.

Be careful around him. People are wondering here, does he need to shrink the game and shrink the shirt or does he need to expand the game and get some bigger shorts? That he doesn't, you don't go bigger shorts. Yeah. The shorts are the one.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I think just, just biting the bullet and reverting back to a medium is probably the smart thing to do Yeah. Yeah. I think just just biting the bull and reverting back to a medium is probably the smart thing to do here. You know what we can't

see here which is a shame. We can't see if he has croquis on the sunglasses that are resting on his neck. Has to. He has to, right? Croquis are still hot, right? In certain groups. Croquis never die. Well, here's the thing. Here's

the thing. I actually think croquis are a very smart invention that uh can benefit a lot of people in life who wear sunglasses a lot, but now they have this frat stank on them. Let's bring them back. I have some in the junk drawer at home. Dude, everyone's got some in the junk drawer. And they're from the masters.

They're sick. That's frat. Yeah. They're pretty thick and green, obviously. And I pulled them out the other day and I was talking to Parks about how frat these were back in the day. And he's like, do you not even frat? I don't know where he got that from. But he said that you're not even frat. My dad got my dad's a real frat star. He got me some for I guess Christmas this year with my initials on the back. Really? Their leather. Oh, that's sick. So I mean, they're frat.

Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna bust those out those out obviously It helps when you're out ripping lips and you just want to You don't want to put your son's glasses in your pocket or something. I'm gonna have them right there I was thinking that same thing David. Well shots for this guy Not quite Arby's Polo territory, but it's close. Not as close as it gets. I mean, this would have been me at that whatever in Ponovedra. Yeah, but it would have been a bit that we could have enjoyed for a really long time. God, that 2019 or 2018 burner verse would have not been kind to me Did that uh that Tori pines on the TV this weekend make you want to go San Diego at all

He's in better shape than I gave him credit for. He's got some some good muscle definition and he's just handsome as hell. Do you know what his nickname was in college that I just Googled? Like you only get this nickname if you're a hot dude. He went to Tech. Texas Tech. His nickname in college was just ken

As in ken doll. Yeah, that's a that's a hot guy nickname. Like you don't get that unless you're perfect. Yeah Where's french lick? Indiana home of larry bird. That's right. Okay, surprised you didn't know that I mean, I'm in a group chat where they're trying to maybe do a future golf Boys trip and uh french liquor store out there. I didn't know where it was I'm in a group chat where they're trying to maybe do a future golf voice trip in a French liquid store out there. I didn't know where it was.

So yeah, we got Chili's, Longhorn Steakhouse, Red Lobster and Cheesecake Factory. So number five, what's gonna be that? What's been y'all's favorite?

That Chili's was great. Chili's because you ordered martinis and it blew the bartender's mind. Bartender was the nicest guy. Chili's was good, Chili's because you ordered martinis and it blew the bartender's mind. Bartender was the nicest guy. Chili's was good, but not that memorable. Longhorn Steakhouse, is it Longhorn? Longhorn Steakhouse is actually my favorite. Longhorn Steakhouse for an actual meal was awesome.
