all right we're back circling back podcast coming to you live from aust, Texas. My name's Will DeFreeze. To my left, David Rizgodroff. Thank you, Will. Hey, I'd like to apologize to a guy who's a part of this show. He does a lot of work behind the camera. His name is Randy, right? Randy Trembaki. Sitting back there right now. Was following him into work today, just by chance.

Going, I don't know north northeast bound up lamar way and uh lamar way it's just a street yeah just a street i'm just trying to i'm trying to paint a picture okay can i take the picture you're over here pissing in my pain don't paint the picture dude unless people are watching on youtube at youtube.com circling back they're not going to see the picture you're painting so there's a there's a turn in into the shopping center that is not where our office is and then there is the street that we are on that you turn on and there's a turn lane you have to get into you got trapped behind someone turning in randy's in front of me feeling real good about himself what an idiot i watch him i watch these

two cars get in the lane at the same time way too early to be committing to that lane way too early and uh because i'm like eyeing our parking lot already i'm like oh there's like ones there's one spot there's one spot available on the in the good side and uh yeah randy got smoked that is total amateur hour if i was if i was a passenger in his vehicle i would have gotten out and just walked the rest of the way just embarrassing i give you i would give you three stars if i was a passenger and you were the Uber driver. Not good. Can't go that soon, Randy. I would go way sooner.

Traffic was bad. Sometimes I go way earlier because if it gets really backed up, I'll just go down that whole lane because I'm a bad boy. The whole turn lane? It's a turn lane. You're not supposed to do that. It's illegal, Randy. It's not a cruising lane. That's kind of a risky move. The whole turn lane? It's a turn lane. You're not supposed to do that. It's illegal, Randy. It's not a cruising lane. That's kind of a risky move.

Not only is it illegal, it's highly dangerous. It is dangerous. There's a lot of action right there. Yeah. No, there isn't. Yes, there is. If they were turning, the thing is, if I would have turned where that car was turning in front of me, I would have beat David into the parking lot.

You didn't, no. There's been a huge influx of dumbasses on South Lamar outside of our office who have just been getting into the turn lane but not getting fully into the turn lane. Just hanging out half the car. And it's like,

what are you doing? Dumb dogs. The lane management in this city is absolutely pitiful. I need to talk to all the driver's ed teachers from back in the day

because there's a lot of really bad Austin drivers. It's all those California folks. Dude, I feel like it's all the people with Austin High stickers on their shit

as if where you went to high school matters when you're 35. Noted shitheads. Noted shitheads, dude. Yeah. Dylan Chivry, another noted shithead. I should also point out my son is currently slated to attend that high school. Nice. Hopefully he's not one of the shitheads.

Yeah, hi. Happy to be here. Coming off just a huge night. Two wins for your boy. One, on the softball field. We'll talk about it. Two, talking puck. Are you just feasting on dubs?

Just feasting. I can't stop. And you got a haircut yesterday. Did Texas play last night? Baseball? That's fucked up. What are you doing? Dude, that's fucked up.

That's the comment of someone who didn't make it past the Western Conference Finals and is bitter about you. The wound is still open, and Dave just dumped a truckload of salt. The wound is not open. A truckload of salt. The wound is not open, dude. There's no scenario in life where anybody would rather have a College World Series over a Stanley Cup.

You're right. I'm still feasting. Winning a College World Series is fine but like professional championships are outweigh any baseball plus dave did give me a softball compliment earlier so it kind of offsets so we're we'll call the slate clean well now that we have randy's attention after his dumb assery in the uh in the turn lane it was like it was like 10 yards it was just blue dog it was just embarrassing like that is that's humiliating i saw day i saw dave's car i went oh he don't he overtook me did you not see me cracking up in my in the rear view no but as soon as i saw your jeep i was like i was like yep dave just overtook me he's gonna be and i saw the one parking spot i'm

like my jeep which none of you guys have noticed that I'm finally, I finally got my registration updated. That's awesome. It only took two years. Dude, I'm on my fucking bad boy grind. My car,

my lease is up next month. My registration has been overdue since January of 2022 and I'm just doing everything I can to get through. I will say this,

if you go longer than a year, you have to go to the tax office. Yeah. And it's not the worst thing in the world, but you don't really want to do it. So if I'm coming up on a year and a half, you're saying I'm probably going to have to go to the tax office. It might. I think so.

What are you going to be swinging next? I might just buy my car, honestly. It's a good whip. Yeah, I might just buy it. What are you going to be swinging next? What are you going to be swinging next? Yeah. What kind of whip? Yeah, I think i might just just cop this thing call it a day it's a good time to uh to buy it off that lease and that negotiated price so good for you man yeah dog i actually just

cleaned it the other day it's looking really good inside i'm feeling good about it randy got in my car recently and said that it smelled good smelled like a new car you are no longer the stinky car guy yeah i can't my nieces can't dunk on me saying i got a stinky fucking car yeah that was one of the most defeating things of all time that's tough man kids are uh unintentionally cruel with their honesty sometimes yeah i mean and i just left him on the side of the road and told him to kick rocks did they ever make it back would know i didn't talk to him after they said my car smelled bad bye they just tracked you down via the scent of your car uncle will oh god are you okay uncle will no i'll just i'll just never forget the sight of him just

stuck behind that vehicle that's so embarrassing waiting to turn into the wrong lot it's just mad dylan filled in last night for an injured Dan Regester. Yeah. And I'm obviously talking about what everyone's talking about in the sports world, not the U.S. Open, not the Stanley Cup Finals, not the Nuggets winning the championship. But I'm obviously talking about the intramural softball league that you guys are a part of. Some are saying that Dan got Wally pipped.

Do you know the reference? Well, obviously I know, but there's probably people at home who don't. So if you want to explain it for them, I think that would be probably pretty prudent. He famously lost his job to the late, the great Lou Gehrig. He was out for injury, I think. Lou Gehrig came in and proved to be much better. So Wally Pippt never got his job back. It's even better.

And I only know this because I was looking at it earlier. I think he told the manager he had a headache. So didn't play that day because of and maybe it was something serious i don't know i didn't look into it but you know it's almost like being like my tummy hurts my tum i'm having some tum tum issues you know let's let lou get some run like next thing you know the team we played last night apparently the first time around second time playing this team first time around it was a tie i don't know how our team tied to this team this team was hopefully they're not listening i'm sure they're not they stonk well i mean randy like you you're friends with dan like you don't really want

dan to come back right after after the performance that dylan's been putting on we could always use another person out there i mean mean, Dan could hit the ball, and he was doing very well in the outfield too. It's not like Dan was a detriment to the team. No, no, I don't think so. But, like, I mean, the way that things have turned around since Dan went down injured. This team grounded out to Brett, who was pitching, I don't know, seven times. It was bad. Let me ask this.

I'm not saying you, Randy, but what if Dan comes back, and what if we've got Dan and Dorn in the lineup? Wow. I'm just trying to play personnel here. Someone else is getting pulled. That's what I'm saying. I'm not saying you, but a lot of people are going to be like, is it Randy?

I don't think it should be you. No, it won't be me. Randy's good. I got on base again like three more times. Are you the fastest guy on the team? You have to be. When my quads are working, yeah. Okay.

I forgot you once. Well, we've never raced, so it's TB. You famously pulled multiple quads. I think Randy's faster than anybody in the company. Why do you say that? I totally agree. I totally agree Randy's the fastest person in the company. There's no way.

He rides a bike. Oh, God. He rides a bike. No, Randy's definitely the fastest. in the company. There's no way. He rides a bike. Oh, God. He rides a bike. No, Randy's definitely the fastest. He has a record at his high school. Had. It got broken two years later. Oh. I know he had actual chops.

Yeah, he's got actual wheels. I got a couple records at high school. Dude, most 30 racks in one weekend. How many? One. I used to play hockey, and I have a record because i was the only person never to take my skate off and try to stab a guy with it i i kind of wish i had a high school record it's kind of pitiful that i like i couldn't figure out i wish i would have just looked at it

and been like all right well there's not that many kids that went to harvard springs high school there has to be one breakable record up here figure out how to do it dylan's also got that high school record um most uh most dirty socks after staying home sick one day i don't know what the story what are you doing that that joke well where you just behind the paywall did you have a fever when you were sick so you were wearing socks around the house all day and they got all dirty i was doing yard work and i didn't have couldn't afford shoes like why'd you put starch on these? What is your deal?

I don't know. I'm on Mucinex. Yeah. Dave and I are all fucked up on cold meds and shit right now. There's a lot of bad shit in the air. You got wildfire smoke. The amount of stuff I put up my nose today. Don't get too excited, Dylan. The amount of meds I put up my nose today is just through the roof.

You put them up your nose? Dude, I've put four different things on my nose today. I feel I'm clear right now. Man, it must be nice. It is nice. It must be nice. Yeah. I'm looking to relocate.

If you want to see me just absolutely get into one. Dude, I'll go. If we want to relocate, watch media. I will do it right now. I'll stay in Colorado. At D. Chivary on the Grom, if you want to watch me just rip on the left field. I got to say, the guy's got a great swing.

Thanks, Dave. He's very smooth. You better have a good swing at this point. For all the booty chatter you talk about baseball. It would have been a disappointment if you went out there

and were just like... I've never claimed to be excellent at baseball. I played all growing up. If you played through high school, varsity ball, then you should be able to have a swing like that.

Saying that you played all growing up indicates that you should be able to have a swing like that. Saying that you played all growing up indicates that you should be relatively excellent. From five to 18. But I mean, I didn't play college ball or anything. Anyway. It's kind of annoying that the only sport that I was actually good at growing up was soccer.

And the only time that I've been caught on video doing it, I had to be goalie wearing a pair of Yeezys in front of a netless goal. You weren't set up to yeah i knew it wasn't gonna go well when the the goal had no net i tried to i tried to pivot and say we need to go somewhere else and i was told by dan nah it really it really took the effect of like you know you get to see the net ruffle it's one of the best parts of scoring a goal and it just instead it was just me chasing it down it was so bad it was so bad i couldn't

stop thinking about how there was no net you're distracted by the glaring lack of net i think it's time though i think it's time for will's five-star review of the week of the week please delete dylan's part of saying that randy you guys ready for will's five-star review of the week absolutely this one's about dylan oh it's from brett easton ellis oh might be in conversation for one of the greatest living authors right now now that cormac has passed on murders and executions i think i'm have you ever read any cormac mccarthy dave uh the road i've got all the pretty horses a hard copy that i bought at a half-priced bookstore recently that i never read, and I think I'm going to read it on vacation this weekend. I was actually thinking about doing the same thing.

I've seen No Country for Old Men, have not read the book. I was thinking about doing that. I was thinking, yeah, I think I'm going to go All the Pretty Horses because it's the most digestible for me right now. This is from Brett Easton Ellis. It says, total frat mondo. Okay. Hey, Dorn. I watched the TFM movie on Amazon Prime,

and I wanted to know how I'm going to get compensated for one month on my Prime subscription. I will accept bringing back the forms as payment as well. Why would anyone spend time and or money watching that movie? I thought you were in it. I never said I'm watching that movie i thought you were in it i've never said i'm in that movie why is there a street in austin named like tom green boulevard or like tom green way is there yes it's very weird to me i've never seen that i really hope that it has to do more with the

canadian comedian and less to do with like some like random fucking dude something tells me it's not uh my bum is on the whatever guy there's a tom green county out around uh san angelo way west of here edwards plateau we're talking that kind of shit it's also a glass that's my favorite plateau in texas i like i always liked plateaus when we talk about them in like middle school they're so flat on top yeah it's like yo why'd that mountain get the top taken off of it it's's like they got a flat top. I'm sneaky and escarpment guy. Nah, they're fine.

Remember we talked about lagoons on the way to a restaurant in Ponte Vedro Beach? Vaguely. Everybody was just trying to figure out what a lagoon was without looking it up. Oh, yeah. I think we finally got there. What did we settle on? I don't know. Like an inland body of water.

Opposite of a peninsula, right? With swampland or something. It's an inland of water. Was I supposed to be wearing the Arby's polo at this point? Yeah, and you beefed it. No pun intended. A lagoon is a body of water separated from larger bodies of water by a natural barrier. Dude, I kind of fuck with lagoons.

Lagoons can be sick, I think. There's probably a bunch of gross-ass lagoons, though. Yeah, I think lagoons can skew gross. They can actually be a healthy part of your diet. It's a lagoon play. High in protein. If I recall from the last time we had the same exact discussion. There's no way we've

ran that joke before i don't know maybe randy go ahead no randy's fine uh it sounds familiar i just i just remember the last line of the total frat movie is that's life when you're motherfucking frat stuff shut the fuck up is it really yeah i don't know what's i don't know what's worse what's worse. What's worse? The fact that that's the last line of the movie or that Randy made it through the entire fucking movie. You made it longer than all of us. You made it longer than literally everybody.

This is back to the Jimmy Johns day. My roommate and I watched it. We always just quote that last line to each other. It's so bad. Can we get that and cut it and clip it? I just want to see what he has to do. Is it streaming for free anywhere? I think I recently saw it streaming somewhere.

That's pitiful. If you've used the term frat star unironically since forever, you are just the worst. Dylan, know your worth, king. Okay. You're the king of frat. That's true. You and Ross.

I thought that was Ross. No, it might be you now. Ross wrote a book that a lot of people purchased about being frat. Yeah, but you were the forums guy. I had an hour-long conversation last night with Ross Boland via text message. Really? What were you all talking about? Frat?

I was very surprised by what we were talking about for the entire time. Was it sleep aggressions? No. No, it had nothing to do with babies. Give us some context. Ross had some questions About a band that he wanted answered That band was

The Grateful Dead I was like, Ross, let's go down the wormhole right now, my friend Yeah I was gonna say It makes sense because he was like the weed guy For so long, but he's a rap guy Through and through He is the rap guy

He's a rap guy Oh and through. The weed guy. He is the rap guy. You know what I mean? He's a rap guy. Weed and Grateful Dead kind of... Oh, yeah, dude. Fuck yeah. Oh, dude. Smoking weed. Burning not concerned at what nobody want to say. Y'all know I just burn the stickiest out there,

so it's whatever. That's facts. I actually got a text message the other day from one intern Klein. Guys. Oh, I'm getting married to you. He was like, hey, guys. I'm getting married.

Guys, do you guys have a promo code? I saw these loafers. They're pretty crispy. That dude, that dude loves a promo code from us. He does. And guess what? I respect the hell out of it.

Guess what? We got them. Uh, the RS01 sneaker, the driving loaf of the money. Yeah. I'm talking about Rothies, my friends.

A lot of people want to talk about the 14 to one win that what's your team name? The Rainbow Trout.

Okay. It's named that because Fulton was cooking Rainbow Trout when he made the team. It's kind of a flex to make Trout. It's so creative and awesome. Yeah, that was the name of our team. I like that. And it's Pride Month, too.

Shout out Pride Month. Yeah, yeah. Good job. Big ups. Good job, guys. Big ups. But last night, the real story, Dylan, and I watched it.

I watched it. I will say that I did tune in about 10 minutes into the third period for the first time when they were up 7-2, and I kind of assumed that they had it in the bag. And then when I turned back over, it was 9-2. Ton of fun last night. I committed to this softball game. I forgot that it was game five.

No, I didn't forget. It wasn't top of mind when I was like, okay, I'll play the softball game. I hate when I forget that my team is about to win the Stanley Cup. I hate it. Don't poo-poo. Don't let Dave poo-poo you. I didn't forget that. I committed.

I was like, all right, I'll play. And then a couple hours later, I was like, oh, fuck. I committed right in the middle of the game. Anyway, I watched the entire first period at home live. And it was a lot of fun. you got to see the celebrations and everything though right oh yeah yeah oh yeah i got back home really soon after the game ended and so i caught all the highlights and i watched some some sellies and stone man was doing his thing so much fun a fun thing for me is it so i'm relatively new to hockey grew up in texas

never played it growing up never watched it growing up i also have recently gotten my dad into it i was like hey by the way i'm a golden knights fan uh it's been a fun ride they're about this was you know a couple rounds ago in the playoffs and he's like oh okay and he started watching and he didn't know shit about it so i had to explain to him a bunch of the rules and why they do certain things so we're watching the game last night and i was like yeah um i was hanging out with him watching it and i was like yeah i'm gonna go uh to the softball game he's like okay okay and he had the game on i said are you gonna keep watching the game i assume he's gonna turn it off he's like yeah i'm gonna keep watching it and so he's like texting me updates when i'm at the softball game he He's like, it's 4-1.

He's all excited for me and all that. So that was a lot of fun. Game was great. Stone man, my guy, not only did he have a hat trick, he kicked it off with a shorthanded just beautiful little hesitation goal right in front of the net. It was sick, man. Big night.

Big, big night. Dave, I don't want to... You look like you want to throw up or punch me or both. I just can't. No, never mind. I don't want to poo-poo it. I'm just... No, poo-poo, Dave.

It's because it's an expansion franchise. No, it's because you didn't watch the game. I watched some of it. What do you want me to do? Tell Randy and Fulton to F off. Tell them that won 16-1. They scored one run. That's embarrassing, by the way.

That was on me. It was kind of on me. Was that an unearned? I had to run all the way from center field to right field, and I missed the catch. That's okay. No, the Knights, they're very, very good. Their goaltender was the hot goalie.

And that first goal was one of the sickest goals of the playoffs. Beautiful. I thought Lundqvist was the hot goalie. Is there a reference there? Yeah. Just talking about hot dudes that played hockey. Oh, is he a hottie? Yeah, he's a hottie.

Is he a baddie? He's a hottie hottie. I didn't know that. Aiden Hill is the Vegas goalie. Pete Blackburn had a very good point last night. That if you're the Florida Panthers and you lose and your season is over, there are worse places to have this happen to you

than Las Vegas. A lot of people are saying that vegas intentionally threw game four it's just they could kick it back and and sell and do the celly properly i respect that yeah i respect that and i don't think florida was too upset about it because they all where would you rather celebrate miami or las vegas because both of those are very very good options vegas ve. Vegas. Vegas, not even close. Vegas. Nightclub scene in Miami is pretty dope. You can go to a nightclub in any big city.

Yeah, but the nightclub scene in Vegas is like... You can't throw bones at the Mirage. Dude, that's facts. They don't go to the Mirage. You can't throw bones at Bellagio in Miami, dog. That is true as far as I know. I don't know if there's some kind of like... Are you going to go to the parade? You can go to the parade.

In Vegas? Yeah. What do you have to lose? I guess I don't have to lose anything. Yeah, maybe. I'll go with you. Yeah, I've been getting these emails from Aria trying to get me there. They're like, here's $100 to the resort.

You did mention that yesterday that you were in like itching to go. What if I go to the parade and I just don't bring you? I'll go. If you go to the parade, I'll be right there with you. We'll see. It's like tomorrow. It's been a fun ride, man. As a new hockey fan, I picked a team, and they've had a nice little run so far.

Six years in, and they're Stanley Cup champs. Pretty fun. Crazy. It's almost like the expansion draft. Salty Dave. Something that needs's almost like the expansion draft. Salty Dave. Salty Dave in the house. Needs to be reviewed. Anywho.

You're too salty for a guy who's got a good hockey team. I know. But it'd be boring if I just sat here. I can't even watch the Red Wings. They're just trash. Dave, I... Yeah. They were exciting last year until they weren't.

I do empathize with you. I have the inability to be happy for anyone who experiences uh wins such as this i don't want anyone around me to be happy i have that ability it's just it's just like it's for you if the red wings were in the playoffs i'd probably have a different i'd probably have a different tune but because because uh you you have followed them very well throughout these playoffs i'm i'm genuinely happy for you dylan thank you how did you settle followed them very well throughout these playoffs. I'm, I'm genuinely happy for you, Dylan. Thank you.

How did you settle on them? I was, it was a point in my life where I was like really intrigued with hockey and wanting to watch it more because it's a fun, it's a, we, we went to a game live together in, in Dallas.

I don't know when that was, but that also, I guess that was after. Oh yeah. That was after. That was after that also I guess that was after oh yeah that was after that was after the yeah that's right I thought this was like a backdoor cover bet

with you and Ross because wasn't Ross a Preds guy I swear that was a thing and so Vegas announced that they were expanding they were getting a team

and I was like you know what I've been to Las Vegas 13 times I love this city I want a team I don't want to latch on to a team that already

has success it was a pretty natural fit for me so I was like you know what I want a team. I don't want to latch on to a team that already has success. It was a pretty natural fit for me. So I was like, you know what? I'm a Vegas Golden Knights fan. They're very – I won't say they're like super likable, but they're not unlikable. They're very – like they don't have like guys that you really just – you play a seven-game series, you're like, oh, fuck that guy.

I'm going to be team F that guy forever. Not really. They're just a really, you're like, oh, fuck that guy. I'm going to be team F that guy forever. Not really. They're just a really, really good team, well-coached. If I'm a hockey purist and I've been a fan of one of these old-school legacy teams for a long time, I'd be like, man, fuck these Vegas Golden Knights. I do have an issue with the kits. They got Salt Bae. The sweaters aren't great.

The gold ones are a little too flashy. It's just that one. It's that one particularly. Dude,ers aren't great. The gold ones are a little too flashy. It's just that one. It's that one particularly. Dude, I don't mind them. I don't mind them at all. It's Vegas, baby. They got Salt Bae, Davey. Vegas is allowed to get a little cocky with their jerseys. I'm okay with it. They got guys in the stands dressed as Elvis. It's a fun

environment. I like it. I knew one of the guys in the building last night. Salt Bae? No no it wasn't salt bay but a dude i know was there and uh it appeared to be quite the lituation yeah quite the lituation good stuff very jealous i think last night kind of made me think about it and if i could see any any championship live it would be a home game stanley cup clin game. I think it'd be the most fun. It's electric. In American sports,

obviously. And because the score was so lopsided, the celebration in the stands were going on for much of the game. That's like the best way,

that's like the best case scenario. Just an absolute blowout and everyone's just partying. 4-1 at the end of two, I believe? Yeah. I think I tuned in and then three one happened and then i think i went and i was streaming uh the ranger game and then i'd look check i checked twitter and i saw

things had gotten out of hand that stone man empty netter from across the whole rink was sick you love an empty netter i do too they're fun it feels like you're doing like a in between period like an intermission challenge where they just let some guy go out there and yeah rip one from the blue line or whatever you ever seen it don't make that no i've only seen it once i don't think i have i've only seen it once live lake superior state university crowd went crazy when it went through the little tiny hole pretty impressive stuff I don't think I have. I've only seen it once live. Lake Superior State University. Crowd went crazy when it went through the little tiny hole. Pretty impressive stuff.

Pretty fun. Pretty fun. Kind of surprised my dad never finagled a way for me to do it considering we were season ticket holders for like six years. And I mean, each ticket was $5. What a time. Have you ever played hockey? Yeah. I did hockey camps when I was little.

And I would play a little pickup when I was in like maybe elementary or middle school. But my parents told me at an early age that I could choose between playing hockey and skiing because both were quite expensive. And I decided that skiing was probably the more prudent way to go. Yeah. Playing hockey is not the most convenient thing. Like you have to drive a long way to go to the the rinks you have to have a lot of stinky

equipment oh my having a locker out of the ski area and uh you know girls around always helps a little bit more and curly fries you know when you get to go inside and get a hot cocoa and some some french fries it always helps that sounds phenomenal the juxtaposition between the chocolate yeah if you can mash that juxto button like you made the right choice yeah you take that are we doing juxto button yeah sounds like it yeah we're hitting that juxto got a problem uh yeah a little bit okay well you want to come across this fucking table and we'll sort it out meet me halfway bitch boy are you guys kiss fighting

or fist fighting i don't know i didn't mean he didn't really clarify i didn't mean that man is this sunday father's day it is it is not gonna be with my son on father that's sad i'll pick him up more on father's day in a second i'll be his dad for a day no you won't uh before we get to our next segment today's show is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Can someone read this headline for a player? Because it is good. Okay, but who do you want to read it and how?

I want, no offense, Dave, but I want Dylan to read it in his Christopher Walken voice. Father fakes his own death to teach a family lesson and shows up at funeral in a helicopter. That wasn't my best. And that went a different direction. That wasn't my best.

I feel like I started strong. Keeping it up, though. Walken takes a lot out of me, man. Just like general walking in life? Yeah. Surprise, family. I'm alive and well father fakes chartered a helicopter father fakes his own death to teach family a lesson then shows up at funeral and helicopter uh not just a father dylan but more importantly a tiktoker

he's got a following why would he do did he actually do this like like is this he actually went through with doing something like this this is fucking insane this is incredible i'm watching his uh tea talk right now if you are a family member or a close friend are you like what percentage of you is happy that he's actually alive or how angry are you what how did he fake his own death for the people at home uh let me just say, first of all, Dylan, because I'm going to get to that here shortly. I'm just looking at photos. So he – in the video, you just see this like helicopter. People are like, well, that's weird.

Like who's coming to this? Is it the Jones family showing up at the funeral? They probably don't know who they are. But the guy gets off the helicopter with some of his family who are in on it. So there were actually people. This wasn't just a one-man show. He had some people helping with the situation. It's good to know that his wife and children were in on the prank.

And he didn't also fool them. That would have been super fucked up. I think. Oh, fuck. Yeah. were in on the prank and they didn't also fool them that would have been super fucked up i think um oh fuck yeah it says here that uh he faked his fake death was actually a freak gasoline fight accident i'm learning a new word today and it's pseudocide fake suicide yeah that's my favorite chili pepper that shouldn't be a word because no one should be ever doing that i totally agree will yeah yeah sad that that is actually a term if anyone in my life faked their own death That's my favorite chili pepper. That shouldn't be a word because no one should be ever doing that. I totally agree, Will. Yeah, yeah. It's sad that that is actually a term. If anyone in my life faked their own death to teach me a lesson,

I don't think I'd be friends with them that much longer. If I do it, it's just going to be so my family can collect on the life insurance policy. I feel like, Randy, what are you pondering right now? Because you have a look on your face. I'm just wondering, like, pseudocide, does that mean that you pretended to fake your own death or like epstein where he didn't kill himself or is it do both wow you want to go down the epstein really muddy in the waters there randy some people are saying covet is just one big distraction from the global pedophilia ring is that what do you say about that yeah do you think that that was the murder hordes were at

least there was like two days what there was like 10 murder hornets and like they weren't even like it was just like oh they're hornets i'm not i'm not seeing they don't it's not in there well i'm sorry i was hoping to i i can't answer that but maybe i can find a reason for the source yeah that's what i was trying to find too i don't see it we can just speculate i don't even want to give the guy's ad out because i don't think he deserves tiktok clout for this he had 165 000 followers before he pulled this off and what does he have now i don't know what he has now hopefully it's gone down but it probably hasn't unfortunately because we're a sick twisted society how can this random tiktoker have a helicopter budget but like fucking yellowstone season three was just absolutely grasping for it real question here

if if you have a if you have a tiktok friend who's like big on tiktok and they like they die or you you hear that they die do you question it i mean because it's like i don't think so i don't think i do because i think i like to see the the honest side of people and someone dies like my first reaction isn't like surely he's not chasing clout with the with the death he said he was feeling like unwanted by by friends and other extended family like he wasn't getting invited to things and he did this to prove a point don't we all have that moment in life we i feel like everyone has that moment in life where you're like, man, I feel like I haven't hung out with people in a while. Every night I put my head down.

But never have I been like, man, what if I convinced everyone I was dead? Every weekend that happens to me, actually. No, but this isn't going to make your friends want to hang out with you more. No. If anything, I'm like, this is a huge red flag. Yeah, he was kind of on the fringe of our friend group, and then he faked his death, and now we just don't talk to him anymore at all. What if he comes tearing out that helicopter, and he goes and he sees the site of the funeral,

and no one's there? Do you just ask the pilot to take that helicopter into the ground? He's like, can you actually kill me now? Actually kill me now, yeah. You just got to jump up into the blades. Oh, that'd be a tough one. A tough way to go. Yeah, probably. I don't know. It was kind of dark was kind of dark sorry probably just take your head clean off right yeah i think so but is it like a chicken

where you can keep walking around for a little bit no not like that at all we don't have talons i don't know if that's why the best character from laguna beach talon you disagree who's your favorite character on laguna beach you're probably a deeter guy you fucking wimp i don't remember deeter was deeter was sneaky hot deeter was kind of sick actually i don't know i kind of i kind of fancied myself i was just kidding about that they weren't hot they're okay but dave you can say high school boys were hot from laguna beach they were hot steven was hot i just don't know if i want that out steven never responded to my DMs when I'd be out there for a wedding and stuff. For a second thought, maybe you were going to link up.

No, I couldn't even get a response back from Dylan and what's her face? Wes and Dil? No. Hannah G. Dylan and Hannah. That is way too horny, Randy. That was way too quick. Dude, you lucked out there because they stink.

Okay, Randy. No, you guys would have been so happy if I sent you a photo from my hotel room and I was hanging out with Dylan and Hannah G. Blake shows up with a I love buffalo chicken dip shirt or whatever the fuck they got. She's way too good for Dylan. Dude, no, they're not. No, she's not. Yes, she is.

No, she's not. Yes, she is. I think she has signed like a blood deal with TikTok because she is the most promoted person I've ever seen on my TikTok. And I'm not saying that she's in my algorithm. Like TikTok is actually doing paid promotion of her posts. Are they still together?

Yeah. Ugh. Yeah. They're viral. Randy was way too quick on that. That guy stinks. So age. So age. I'm not getting those served to me, Will, that. That guy stinks. So age. So age.

I'm not getting those served to me, Will, so. Oh. You just returned serve on your ass. The student. Love that. I don't linger on those promoted posts. I'm not a Hannah G guy. We're two for two on write-ups on this

from English news networks that don't have the cause of death that he lost. I don't think they said. They said his kids went to Facebook and were like, oh my God, we miss you. We love you. Rest in peace, Dad.

Is it more fucked up to have your kids involved in a fake death or is it more fucked up to be having your kid on a podcast and you're pausing to ask them to re-ask a question with canned answers fed back to them. You think Big Baby Gronk would never fake his dad?

Hold on, hold on. Dave, Dave, Dave. Ask that question again. Dylan, tell them that you're going to get body massages from baddies. That was the most cringey, uncomfortable two minutes of the week for me. It is somehow the most cringe video I've seen in a really long time, but I also

can, like usually cringe stuff makes me look away. I cannot look away and I've watched the video numerous times. Hearing his dad talk, it gives you, it explains a lot. Gives you a lot of context. I'm really scared of how this all ends with Baby Gronk.

I'm really afraid this is going to end in a depressing fucking way. Yeah. this all ends with baby gronk i'm really afraid this is going to end in a depressing way yeah like like there's a lot happy father's day to baby gronk's dad him like stop he doesn't get any taller they have to move into fullback he wishes he was tall or he wish he was a ball if he had a girl he would call her skilo skilo i weirdly own that cd that's short that that's a bop it's fine it's a bop it's fine you wish it was a baller yeah oh yeah big baby gronk shit shithead, but you got to admit, if your son came home and was like, dude, I just got rizzed up by Livvy,

you would probably be acting different too. You'd be like, whoa. I already asked her to prompt. She said yes. All the DMs that are surfacing that he's been just- Done. They're saying he's the new drip king. That poor kid.

He's too young to make any decisions for himself right now. Hey, Dave, will you read the headline now of this news story, but in the voice of that guy? Of the kid that makes the TikToks about Baby Gronk? TikToker fakes his own death to find out who cares and then shows up at the funeral. Don't zoom in on my face. My face is puffy.

I look like shit. Baby Gronk is the best football player in the world for a 10-year-old. That's pretty good. Yeah. I like yours better. Yeah, good cadence there, Dylan. He has a scholarship to every football program in the country. He doesn't, by the way.

I'm not doing anything this weekend, and honestly, I can't wait. Dude, get him. He's straight rizzed up. Libby Dunn. I hope that TikToker steals Slam's laptop shots. I do, too. I do, too.

I'm fine. I don't care who steals it at this point. Just take it. Unless you're an NFL team. No fun league, I call them. Came up with that myself. He stole her from the drip king. I'm worried about Liv Golf

making it through the weekend. After what Brooks said about the Travelers. What did he say? He's a funny guy when he wants to be. Dude, Brooks is on... His stock is rising. He's, you know, he's,

I kind of regret not taking him in my group text pool. I got Scheffler, so I'll be happy, but like, I kind of think it'd be fun

to have Brooks. It would be fun, but you're gonna like, you're gonna like the way you look with Scotty. We got big news. Big, big news, boys.

What is it? I had a package arrive at the office the other day normally these are just think bars or an espresso pods we don't really get a ton of packages here or it's usually mugs for dylan remember when you could have had a think bar today but you didn't know we had them and then you took your medicine on an empty stomach no i didn't take it on empty stomach dave i stopped at a gas station before i got in and i got a cliff bar like a little bitch is it standard protocol to like text out the whole squad? Hey, by the way, we have think bars at the office now.

Yeah, you got to put that. I went and wasted $2.49 on that cliff bar. What, you think he's fucking made of money? Hey, add $2.49 to your next paycheck. Thank you. I will. I will. Well, I got the package and Randy saw it and he said, okay, well, I think you got to open this.

And when I opened it, I was absolutely shocked at what i saw i didn't actually know what it was when i first saw it it looks like a gaming console obviously what i'm talking about is we've finally acquired our prototype of a pledge that's a pledge for people out there who don't realize what a pledge is a pledge is an apparatus that sits in your car and levels out where you set your pizza so that your cheese and stuff doesn't slide while you're going home. It stands for pizza wedge, folks. It does stand for pizza wedge. Or pitching wedge. Some people call it a pwetch.

Or a pwetch quest. Dave, do the thing. You're the king of frat. Don't look at me. Do the thing, Dave. I don't know what that is. I think you do. How are we going to do this? You can have it it's your it's your

no i think i think we i think we need to take turns with it do we make you eat 30 slices of i might go get a pizza for lunch i might play my zocard today just so we can we can see this thing in action that's a that's a great point because if we all play by the rules we'll each only need it once a week true that's a good point true let's just mark on a calendar which days we're going to play our za cards what are the best what's the best uh like day for za that's what i call pizza i like to save syllables you gotta think sometime on the weekend david you think okay you don't like that all you're busy you know the you know parks is got jujitsu you don't have time and next thing you know like I got over pizza and you're like I can't because I had a Sunday

yeah I don't have a uh 3D printed pledge that can uh what David oh I didn't know it was customized yeah it's 3D printed with our logo on it dog this is my first the first time i've handled something that was 3d printed that you know of how does it print in 3d those things blow my mind man i don't know how that works you know that's okay i'm okay not knowing he sent some uh some prototypes that were a little smaller to scale and uh like they'd be perfect for like a tech deck kind of thing you know like if if you had like a tech deck skate park and you need to take your pizza home from the tech deck skate park this is the nicest pledge i've ever seen it's really fucking good it's better than the water bottle we've all been using notice how it sits at an angle david yeah that's the whole thing yeah dumb ass god i can't wait to

fucking use this it's great you should go get a result at lunch let's do pizza day thanks to kyler you sent it to us actually no i played my za card on sunday david okay so therefore i can't play it until this next i'm gonna go home and eat leftover chicken piccata. I would think that. That's right. Wait, you didn't bring the gift of chicken piccata in for the boys? Interesting. I wanted it all to myself for the leftovers. I'm going to toss it in a little skillet with a little olive oil.

It's going to be good. Still can't believe you didn't give us a gift of gumbo. You got to let that go. That was pretty messed up. You hit your best friends and we just weren't on the list. It's really... Even Dylan...

I hit the people closest to me. Dylan brings us the gift of leftover pizza. That's true. Dylan brings like a bag of ruffles that he had eaten in two weeks. Like, you know what? Maybe the office would like this.

A stale box of Cheerios. Hey, guys, I got some Cheerios for you guys. At least we get chip clips out of it. Mm-hmm. Those things did not ever happen, folks. Are you sure? I can't believe I got shit on for bringing pizza,

like day-old pizza into the office. You just didn't want to break down the box and recycle it. No, I didn't want to eat the leftover pizza. It was a health play and also a friendly gesture to my good pals. Were you worried about your health and not ours? Like, hey, are you guys take this stuff that I won't eat? That's interesting. Just if you really look at it. I'm going to stick this Pledge sideways. It doesn't matter if it's sideways or the right way. It's still going to absolutely suck to have shoved up your butt. It's a good point. It's going to hurt either way.

You're going to shove the Pledge up my butt. Oh no, am point. It's going to hurt either way. You're going to shove the pledge up my butt. Oh no. Am I going to be sitting on a little cushion? Did the pledge get stuck up there? Oh no. Do I have to go to the hospital? Do I have to get the pledge removed from my butt? Emergency surgery? Did you wreck my shit?

Going to get your stomach pumped while you're at it from drinking so many natty lights. That's a tough hospital visit man yeah that's not good did you know anybody had to get their stomach pumped in like high school or college uh yeah there was one kid who did not drink sophomore year and get a stomach pump and like from then on i was like dude you got his fucking stomach it's like like the first time that someone like actually drinks liquor in high school i'm very happy to report that i have never gone out with anybody who needed their stomach pumped uh that night i didn't go out with them but it was a house party that someone just got really into one i've never i i i'm

actually shocked that i've never seen anyone need to get their stomach pumped dude that just means your crew can hold their shit yeah dude like we fucking drink uh like we drink a lot yeah like your party is our pregame dude do you ever think about that that's right yeah dude yeah dude we even like stopped doing uh power hours because it just wasn't enough the delts they can't hold their liquor we did so power day. Dude, we do century club. Power hour all day long? Yeah. There's so many minutes in a day.

It's just not sustainable. It's really dangerous. Yeah. You had to stop. Fucking hell abloaded, but worth it. Worth it. Hungover for the next 18 days. We all got our stomachs pumped. It was sick.

Yeah, dude. Oh, dude. Yeah, we had the pledges drive us to the fucking hospital in a school bus that's so stupid do you remember do you remember Mark he was dating that chick who was a nurse

and we just had her bring like her hospital shit and she just pumped our stomachs right there we didn't have to pay for it she was a cool yeah dude she got some blood all over my uh uh vineyard vine swim trunks when she was putting my iv in it was yeah i sent her a bill for i sent her a bill for it what how how long was the inseam on those zero what yeah that's dangerous sorry i started a late night a couple weeks ago. You saw her at late night? Yeah.

The nurse? Yeah. Dude, I remember her being pretty fucking hot. It's like, dude, that's not open game, bro. She used to date Mark. Don't. I mean, it's cool if y'all are friends, but bro. That's against a frat bro code, bro.

Yeah, you can get M.O.'d for that. Make out? That's life on your motherfucking friends. True. That's facts, dude. That's true, Randy. That's facts, Randy can get M.O.'d for that. Make out? That's life on your motherfucking friends. True. That's facts, dude. That's true, Randy. That's facts, Randy. Full circle.

Well, the Beatles. Hmm. Oh, so Paul McCartney. domain well the beatles you gotta put some respect i went to that's a rancho after the acl performance did he go there i had a mexican martini there's no way he went to fucking matzo rancho there's no way i got a strawberry fields dot okay that's it that's not bad that's not bad you kind of drifted into paul bearer why does he have a little wobble thing he's paul mccartney big fella um paul mccartney says final beatles song coming thanks to artificial intelligence so artificial intelligence has the ability to jerk off a beatles song it's like a headline says i gotta read this hold on no they're gonna use i knew they were making advancements in ai i did not realize what

they were doing they're gonna use artificial intelligence to like isolate john john lennon famously assassinated um they're gonna isolate some vocals from like a demo and they're gonna put out this song not quite as creepy as uh the weekend the weekend and the drake song that doesn't even sound very ai-ish you know what you're right it almost it seems like they're but they're leveraging the tools per the story so so are we okay with like the actual artists themselves leveraging the tools as long as other people aren't leveraging these tools to to replace the artists themselves as long as these artists are getting paid or their estates are getting um getting money for using

you know their craft their their voice, their music, then it's fine, right? Paul McCartney's just kind of in the pantheon of people for me who are allowed to kind of do whatever they want at this point. Like, you've earned it. He might also be dead. More on touching base. John Lennon's estate, surely they're getting

a little kickback from this, no? Oh, yeah, I bet Yoko's getting a taste. Was it Ice Cube recently? She alive. I think Ice Cube said, oh yeah i bet yoko's getting a taste was it was it ice cube recently she alive it said yeah i think ice cube said if if anyone uses my voice or my music like to create music via ai i'll sue your fucking pants off i get it yeah i get it if i found out that somebody was making a fake podcast with our voices like the first thing i'd want to do is take them for all their work did you know that uh ice cube did a song with corn back in the day and also toured with them

i saw that concert that's just a little uh aside i took a song i didn't know that david yeah it was actually a pretty good show that's cool why is ice cube so angry it's kind of his thing man he's just not a happy man what was the uh comedy he was in dude nwa the a the attitude man 21 jump street 21 jump street okay yeah not not the musical act that he was a part of the comedy there's nothing funny about nwa no but he's been in a lot of movies he's talented man he's had i'll say it he's been in too many movies that's a lot of movies that i've heard of dude three kings i haven't seen three kings in forever i gotta read that that was a theater uh play for me and i really enjoyed three kings i did slip in uh the players club into a stack of movies that my mom was renting from showbiz video when i was a little

kid player but he was friday is what he was like first known, right? Yeah. Oh, Friday. See, I need to go back and re-watch some of these movies. Hi, Felicia. It's been a minute since I've seen Friday. Next Friday was funny, I thought. You ain't got to lie, Craig. What are you doing? It's really good. Those are lines from Friday.

Yeah, what are you doing? I watched that movie like a million times growing up. Are we there yet is what I was thinking. I don't even know what that is. That movie sounds terrible. These all sound like movies Randy was into at one time. Well, they were kids movies. Like Are We There Yet was about a road trip with those kids.

And then Are We Done Yet was them building a house and refurbishing. He did some kids movies. They ran it back? How do you get fired on your day off? You get left off the schedule. I did kind of get fired on my day off. That is true. It's classic Dave, man.

Whatever. Who needs him? Yeah, I don't like... Like, if I were to find out Band X that I'm a big were to find out Band X, I'm a big fan of, put out an album, and I've been jamming it for weeks. Like, dude, this is a great album.

About to show up on my Spotify wrapped. And like, guys, surprise. That was all artificially intelligence produced. I would probably say a cuss word. Now, I wouldn't keep listening. That's fucking weird. What the freak? If AI puts out just a banger of an album,

I'm gonna listen. No, I'm morally opposed to it. Even if they're getting paid on it, it's still weird. I might change tune in six months, but right now, as of right now, I'm not gonna support that.

If they're getting paid on it, then it makes it okay. Not okay, okay, but it's still weird. It makes it less... Part of a good song is like oh man this person wrote it and they wrote it you know potentially when they were going through this part of their life and that's really cool okay but what if drake like okay what if drake like

creates a song using ai and he's like damn this is heat and then he just goes and re-records it himself and releases it i don't know drake's version look no but like no one would even know you know what i mean like that's possible too oh like so he just has them right there they basically like he just uses a computer program to write the song and do it and produce it and then he's like okay this one's the best out of the 20 songs that it just created for us let's go in the studio and recreate this song and maybe add a different flair to it given the rumors about his uh writing prowess might not be that far listen if it comes on at the club and it's just an absolute i'm okay with him having a go if it's a club banger and it comes on and you're like you're like four vodka sodas deep

dave you're gonna bop to it yeah i'll bop to anything you're gonna buy that about me tell me you won't bop with a straight face i just said that. Okay. Just saying. If they get compensated, it makes it more okay to me. What was that other album that Drake put out a couple years ago that was really bad? He should have just said, like, that was a joke.

That was AI shit. So I'm looking for it right now. I started listening to it the other day. Not the other day. Like a couple, a few weeks ago. I was like, you know what? It's been a minute since I've heard this album. I'm going to toss it on.

I didn't hate it. It's bad. There's one song on it jimmy crooks is good last last track that's not what i was gonna say there's one song on it that is one of maybe the worst rap song ever created and it's because the beat features a creaking bed like a mattress where someone's getting their cheeks clapped on it sex and it And it's just not a good song. But I kind of like the vibe of the album. I kind of wish he would have just taken more time and maybe just done one or two songs in that style instead of an entire album.

Yeah, apparently it was made just for club music, which is a genre I'm not really familiar with. Okay. I haven't heard that at Little Woodrow's. That's not a club. It is during South By. Facts. That is true. That is a a club. It is during South by. Facts. That is true.

That is a thing we did once. We spoke about the fake song from Drake and The Weeknd earlier, which brings me to my next thing that has to do with The Weeknd. Abel. Familiar with this guy? Yes. He has a new show on HBO. Not HPO. You guys familiar with this home box office the idol

yeah yeah i've seen a lot of buzz um it's it's been widely panned i would say not a lot of people are supporting this show uh let's see what it is on rotten tomatoes any guesses on what it might be for rotten tomatoes uh from what i know maybe 68 26 percent uh from critics didn't give me a chance to guess audience score 58 percent uh so i've watched the first two episodes have you guys watched any of the episodes and or have you watched any of the horny clips online no i don't need extra horniness in my life right now okay i'm keep I'm staying clear. After the sock situation when you stayed home from school? Yeah.

Yeah, because of the sock situation. Old starch sock. I didn't know what to expect from this show, but I was intrigued because I trust The Weeknd. I feel like he's got the content gene. I feel like he's good at what he does in general. So I was like, you know what? I want to see this happen. And I can confirm it's probably the horniest show

I've ever seen in my entire life. So the young lady, the lead actress. Lily rose depp johnny depp's daughter correct who's the who's the mommy uh i looked it up the other day i didn't recognize who she was okay but she she looks very much like is it rose lily rose depp it wasn't roseanne barr all right just asking why did you go there? I don't know. I was just thinking, like, who could have possibly been a mom on a TV show? Roseanne was once a mom on TV. I was talking about her real mother, IRL.

Johnny. Yeah, the baby mama. Okay, so it probably wasn't Roseanne. Yeah, probably not. Okay, sorry. Sorry. Good guess, though. It could be.

I'm very conflicted about this show okay i'm gonna i'm gonna write i'm just gonna admit i enjoyed the first two episodes they're weird they're tense and they're very horny part of the reason i'm conflicted is because i don't want to say that i've enjoyed the first two episodes publicly for fear of people just saying that i'm just a a horny dude who enjoys this show yeah like you don't want to you don't want to get put in like the the kj zone exactly exactly and so i'm just trying to figure this out like i understand like people are that are saying it's like disturbing i can see that angle but i don't feel like it's that much more disturbing than other things that i've seen i think like there's there's parts of euphoria that are much more inappropriate.

I watched the clip in question that many people were talking about. Is this from episode one or episode two? I don't know. It is a sex scene. Is this the clip? And the weekend- Did he tell her to do something? Yeah, and it's just, I just... What does he say, Dave?

I don't know specifically. I feel like you do. Or don't you? I think he says like, hey, I want you to kiss me on my mouth. I want you to just hug me and just let me tell you about all the

tough things that happened at work today. Oh, yeah. I had a tough one that's graphic yeah it was just a little bit that's exactly how the weekend sounds too yeah it's got that gruff voice it's in tulsa right that's where this this thing takes place yeah i think it's all in tulsa yeah i support anything hank azaria does so it's hard for me not to ride for the show just a tiny bit this is a total sidebar. Whenever Cole Campbell types out the word weekend,

he spells it like The Weeknd spells his name. I just wonder if he doesn't know the real spelling of the word weekend. Both are possible. Yeah. It's possible that he's doing a bit or he just spells it that way. It's good for a chuckle every time from your boy. I've heard from a number of people that this was an egregious sex scene it's egregious but like i mean they're just doing some effing and essence like i do people think that like stuff like this just doesn't happen behind closed doors for people sometimes i'm not saying i'm doing this i'm not

like i'm not you know saying these things but like this is not any more egregious than like things that you hear about that when people are just kind of you know generally horny in the first you want to consume your horny content we're not going to stop you you don't have to justify it i'm going to keep consuming this horny content for at least a couple more episodes and see how this pans out um i think i think we're getting into the thick of it and i'm excited uh but it's it's it's it's real H when you have to go from watching The Idol straight into Love Island. Have you guys even started? Yeah.

I told you I did. I haven't. We need to figure this out. Dave, you need to start watching Love Island. You're falling behind. You're four episodes back right now. Just never stop me. Gives me something to do this weekend.

Four episodes back, my guy. I think it's time. Let's try it. It's time for this weekend in fun. Dylan, hit us with the alert. The what? New sponsor alert. Oh, shit.

I'm wide open. I know that you won't be here, Will. Dave, I might be trying to latch on to you. I don't know what you're going to be doing I'm finally here in a sec My Friday is wide open I would love to do something If that's a dinner great If it's beers with the boys awesome too

I'm going to maybe do High Life with the boys Okay great Saturday So I wasn't supposed to have Park Saturday But I am because It's Father's Day weekend and he's leaving Sunday. So Saturday is going to be a family day. We're packing for his Camp Longhorn stay.

Oh, it's a big day. I know. And then just going to spend time with him and time with my family. Probably might do a little swimming. Not exactly sure, but it'll be a big family day Saturday. Sunday, a sad day because Parks is getting on a bus and uh he's departing of course that's father's day i had to gotta say bye to him he's departing for six nights he'll be away at camp longhorn really really excited for him i want to miss that little um have you thought about maybe faking

your death just so like it's true just i'm just saying like that's something you could do no and then like i'll keep that in the back pocket though for now surprise yeah yeah so he's gonna leave man uh gotta see him get on a bus and he's the kid's growing up sad but but cute and i'm happy about it happy for him he's gonna have an excellent time and then just gonna be sulking the rest of sunday because i'll be without my little guy on father's day so what type of activities go down at these camps because i was never a camp kid i took him out there for his interview last summer he'd like actually had to sit down and interviewed by an adult it was he handled it really well it's it's a kid's paradise i mean you have to get interviewed by big baby croc it is truly like a paradise for kids it's it's lakeside it's on

the lake they have like the blob thing they have zip lines zip lines they have like canoes and they have swimming pools and basketball courts and baseball fields it's incredible so he's going to have the time of his life is there like an adult version i i i was i was telling parks i was like we rented out i'm so freaking jealous you get do you get to do this i never got to do this as a kid it's amazing um he might get a little homesick i'm worried about that because this is his first time without his parents for this long and he'll probably be fine that's exactly why i didn't go to camp but a couple i think the first two nights might be tough i was too homesick. I would get too homesick.

There's no way I could have gone to camp. He's pretty attached to his parents too. So it might be a tough one for him, but they're prepared. They help the kids through it. They don't let you tap out and go home. Only way we can communicate is through letters. That's it. My dad always wanted me to go to camp, and I was like,

I kind of would rather just go play golf every day instead. Can I just do that? Golf camp. That's fine. It's my own camp. Hey, I'm not trying to tell you your business, but you should consider leveraging AI tools to craft like a nice note that you could like hide in this bag. I was thinking about just maybe just handwriting it myself. Yeah, that's also an option.

But I'm just saying you don't have to actually do it if you just AI thing. What if you did like AI tools to do like a fake Dua Lipa song as like a farewell to him that's like, hey, man. Hey, Parks, you're cool. I don't know. Hold on. Camp's going to be fun. I don't like that hook. Yeah. Camp's going to be fun. I don't like that hook. Yeah.

Camp's going to be fun. Ah, wait. Imagine Dua up there and she does the microphone thing. Oh, boy. My Discover feed is no longer just solely Dua Lipa grinding on microphones, and it's just an upsetting time. Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Sally knows I like Dua. Anyway, that's my weekend, Daveave i hope parks goes flying on the blob dude he i want to do the blob so bad i've never done it i've never done the blog i haven't either they look incredible they did it on a recent season of uh the challenge didn't go well for a lot of people didn't go well we should do it but like our friends are out in a boat and they all paintball guns. And as we're like way up in the air, they just unload on us for some reason.

We get paid millions of dollars. That'd be a good, good, good gig. If you can get it. I'm going to miss him. What's the Riz God getting into this weekend. Don't call him that please.

Um, my weekend's low key, even though I am going to be doing the mail-in tomorrow with brett and dylan filling in for salgal um kind of kicking off tonight got a buddy in town from houston some of the some of the fellows are trying to find a restaurant to go uh have a meal of food and a possibly a mill Highlife. Wow. Pretty excited about it. Wow. Nothing too crazy.

I need the rest. So tomorrow, tomorrow's Thursday. Be business as usual. But this weekend I'm on rabbit watch. Whitetail rabbit. Not that kind of rabbit, Dylan. Last night as I let my dog, my dog and I randy we came back from um a little play date we do across the street with a neighbor who has a dog out across the street way he like yeah you know

where it is yeah out around uh my neighbors yeah way out past that sidewalk way it's a lot kind of where the sidewalk ends and the road begins anywho uh we went out i was gonna go let him in the backyard because he for whatever reason likes to go roll around in our grass after he does something like that i saw a full-grown rabbit in our backyard and randy didn't see it otherwise i don't think randy's catching that rabbit but if he did have i told the story of the baby rabbits on this pod yeah i you've told you've told me the story i didn't know if you wanted to to relive that trauma yeah very sad situation um a few months ago i went home for lunch and my uh let my dog out and he may have um he may have neutralized a couple uh small rabbits uh

unknowingly he was just trying to play he's a english cream golden retriever a very vicious breed famously and yeah i saw the big rabbit like the who i imagine is related and possibly looking for his or her uh children which made me very sad but But he got out. He escaped. I found he dug a little hole under my fence. Anyway, what I'm trying to say here, and I'm taking the scenic route on this one, I got no plans, man. It's going to be pretty wide open. Maybe swing a pool day in there Friday, maybe Saturday. Lifetime pool.

If the air quality gets a little bit better, catch me outside. Are you going to holler at a player if you see him in the streets? If I see you in the street, it would be weird if I didn't say hi. Yeah, that would be very bizarre. We're business partners. They just ignored you. Friends. Great.

That's good to know. I'm not going to Eugene you. Yeah, I don't need any more Eugening in my life. I'm Eugening people left and right these days. I love it. Just ignore him. Eugene's my guy. I'm just fucking out here leaving.

He's so weird. I'm out here leaving group texts and not talking to people i love it it's great i love it we arrived to vegas for my bachelor party in the same plane and i didn't know that he was on it he's like hey yeah i was sitting five rows in front of you this whole time we're like oh i wasn't on that flight unfortunately i don't think i came in a little later but like that's a fun flight to have with the boys. Yes. So why would you just go sit alone? Was he watching a fucking Ken Burns documentary or something?

If you know Eugene, it wouldn't be as surprising to you. I wish I knew him better. If you'll text him some really important news, he'll respond three days later. I love that. He's just very aloof, friendship-wise. Can I commandeer the mic real quick? I just checked my group text. You one of three hosts, so yeah, go ahead. Well, the three restaurants that one person, I won't name names, Todd, is throwing out is for a place for four or five guys to go just have dinner on a whim.

You guys can't go to Five Guys. I don't even know if Five Guys sells High Life. Well, you'll like this. Red Ash. Trulox. know if Five Guys sells High Life. Will, you'll like this. Red Ash, True Lux, Jay Carvers, and Perla's. Yeah, man.

That sounds great. Really inexpensive. Love dropping a bill on a Wednesday. Yeah. It's always super easy to get into some of those places on short notice. I was going to say Matt's. Perla's is crazy expensive, man. All those places are.

Love that place, though. Great patio. Yeah, great. Good food. Good patio. This is crazy expensive, man. All those places are. Love that place, though. Great patio. Yeah, great. Good food. Good patio. This is your weekend. Maybe the best patio in Austin. My sister-in-law, Emily, is getting married this weekend in Napa, California.

I will be going to said wedding. We leave tomorrow morning, and I return Monday around lunchtime. Very excited for this trip. I don't really know what we're doing. I don't have much to do. It's kind of one of these things where we have like too much time on the front end. The wedding is Friday. I'm Joe.

Y'all are going to have so much fun. The wedding is – I get in Thursday morning. The wedding is Friday. So I have all Thursday to figure out, all Friday to figure out something to do, and then wine tastings all Saturday. I was going to say I bet you drink some wine on Friday. Yeah, no. Yeah. Yeah. I guess it's one of those things where I'm poking around on the website, like trying to figure out like what I can do and what I can enjoy on the premises of the hotel. And then I was like,

oh, cool. Everything's like $250. What am I supposed to do on this fucking trip? So I think I'm just gonna sit by the pool. Apparently there's a lot of lavender around the pool. It's really beautiful and smells good. Do you know where you're visiting or where you're tasting? I don't. I don't. I haven't set up anything, and that's kind of been intentional. At this point, when it comes to wine tasting,

I have discovered a few things, Dave. One is that I'm not very good with tasting wine. Another issue is that I don't have the need in my life at this point to sign up for any wine clubs or memberships. And finally, I just – I don't feel like planning anything. I kind of just want to do nothing and zone out. Just vibes. Yeah. I like that a lot.

I'm Joe, man. I've been in Napa so long. Oh, I'm very Joe. I've only been in naples one time we stayed at a house and it was fun i'm excited to stay at a hotel and kind of get my own space and enjoy myself it's gonna be fun i like california y'all might hit that dispensary yeah i might i might cop a couple j's for the boys after dinner dude bring me back some chronic you're asking me to traffic drugs to you for

across state lines just back that that sticky that kush please would you if i if i boofed it you would accept my butt weed if you kept it in uh something that kept your your stuff out of it yeah so your one condition is that the weed that i give you does not have poop on it. Just put it in a balloon or something. Tie it. I am putting it in a balloon. That's gross, dude. That's always been the grossest description for me. Yeah, that one is gross. It's not gross to me because it's so anatomically accurate

that I almost respect whoever came up with it. I've never looked at a balloon the same way. Can you imagine the cavemen with their first balloon and they're like, dude, look at this. I don't think they had balloons, dog. Yo, Prometheus this i don't think they had balloons yo prometheus i don't think they had balloons look at this but when were balloons invented i don't know 1700s they were probably made out of i guarantee the first balloons were made out of like intestines and shit 1842 no i'm gonna say i'm gonna say this is

No, I'm going to say this is 1312. Latex balloons were manufactured for the first time in 1847, made from vulcanized rubber latex harvested from the Hevia, which I think actually big content guys are familiar with, the Hevia Brasillenius or whatever this is. Ah, yes, indeed. Yeah. These are widely believed to be the first modern balloons

unaffected by temperature and perfect playthings. I don't know what that means. Yeah, you do. There were definitely dudes out there who killed like a wildebeest and then took their intestines

and like tied it off and blew them up, right? I don't know if that's necessarily the case. I feel like it has to be. You can't let it, you can't waste a good intestine. Whenever I dress my deer deer i always make balloons out of their organs what year was

the first like balloon animal made no wonder i don't actually wonder that we can probably end the podcast now do you want to hear what barack obama's number one piece of career advice for Gen Z is? Yeah. Just learn how to get stuff done. So there you go, guys. Oh. Okay. I feel like that's pretty mid-advice from a former president. Yeah, I feel like that could have – I mean, maybe there's more to it. Can you actually say that in Barack's voice?

Just learn how to get stuff done. That's pretty good. That's stuff done. That's pretty good. That's pretty good. I was worried at first you were going to sound like George W. Bush and you ended up crushing that. That's real good. Yeah.

Thank you. I like Michelle a lot. I love what you guys are doing here. You know what my favorite part about Obama is? No. He smokes cigarettes. Does he still? I think he still does. I love what you guys are doing here. You know what my favorite part about Obama is? No. He smokes cigarettes. Does he still?

I think he still does. I think he likes a sneaky cig. He likes a little cheeky cig every once in a while. That is sick. Yeah. It's kind of like I don't smoke cigarettes, but I like that he does. I'm trying to start again. Okay.

Okay. If I smell you coming into the office smelling like cigs, I'm going to have some questions for you. First question is, can I have one? man yeah dude i love love smoking today's been i think it was kind of a heater man yep yep speaking of you see me on the uh balcony at a wedding ripping darts ripping darts all right man All right, bye. Bye.
