Monday, Maddo Ranchos, Maddo Ranchos, Maddo Ranchos, Maddo Ranchos
Monday morning, my name is Dave. I think today's the day.
Like, it is the day.
This is going to be the show.
This is going to be the one that people are like, man.
Remember back in the day we used to have plans to go out to dinner, drinks, bar, whatever.
And Will would always text and be like, this might be the night with like no other context.
He used to get me so hyped.
Yeah.
And, yeah, if this is the day, do me to text it?
I can send you that text right now.
I think saying it on the pot is sufficient.
Yeah, I know.
I just want to like, I'd like to recreate the scene because there were times where it was the night.
Yeah, it was absolutely like the night.
He wouldn't always send it, but there would be times where like, you'd be like,
you know what, Wilbur's right, it is the night.
I said that to Chelsea not long ago.
I was like, we're headed out to dinner or whatever.
This might be the night.
She's like, what are you talking about?
What's your favorite spice girl song?
Answer the question.
Girls rule the world.
Is that name of a song?
That's not.
No.
Rule the world?
Mine is when two become one.
because it went,
tonight is the night
when two become one.
You know what they're talking about, right?
Like, I don't know.
Why'd you do the scissor?
I mean, that could be it, but...
Go ahead.
Only people watching would have seen that.
It's a big...
You were locked in on Dave.
I was locked in on Dave.
I'm just saying, like...
No proof.
You know, wine shot for the rest of the day.
There's no proof I did anything.
I remember that being a TRL hit
and just being like, oh, yeah,
Spice Girl's still doing it, huh?
They followed up their...
They were so hot for a minute there.
They were.
Speaking of So Hot for a minute, producer Randall Trimbecky.
Hi, Dave.
Just for one minute?
How you doing?
I'm doing good.
Okay.
Recharged.
You got your bar hat on?
You got your purple T-shirt on it?
Looking very South Austin Rangyton.
I got my Japanese streetwear shirt and my Maggie Mays hat.
South Austin trash.
Dude, yeah.
Just Oak Hill.
Oak Hill trash.
Oak Hill trash.
It's a joke for a few.
They'll have some contacts in a little bit, I'm sure.
Stick around.
So what's new, man?
Nothing.
I'm just swell to be here.
Hey, I can tell you about my weekend during this weekend of fun.
Right, an upcoming segment that we typically do after the intros.
Exactly.
I'm looking forward to that tease.
You know what?
Here's my tease.
I'm such a basic little bitch, Dave.
Wait till I say why.
Wow.
If you're tracking the numbers at home, we just had a bump.
Big bump in listeners.
People want to know why I'm a basic bitch.
They probably have a pretty good idea.
Speaking of, Dylan Shivry.
We made it, man.
We made it.
Week zero?
Officially made it.
We survived Farmageddon.
Farmageddon has come and gone.
We have week one looking just right in the face.
I just, I've, it's a great time to be alive in Austin, Texas.
It's got a little front moving in this weekend.
It's just going to be, you know,
Vibes in an all-time high.
And unless things go poorly after that first window there, the first slate.
What's our first game this week?
Thursday?
I don't know who plays Thursday.
Because you know Friday we got Auburn at Baylor.
Oh.
Which, you know, that's a good little game.
Fuck, yes.
Pretty good little game.
I've seen some mixed things on Auburn at the moment.
We talked to our friend Eddie Radosovic last week.
They have three quarterbacks.
They're playing week one, I think.
They say if you have three, you have three quarterbacks.
That's what they say.
Man, I'm just excited, happy to be alive right now.
It's just good times, man.
Yeah, given your weekend.
Yeah.
Right today.
Yeah, that too.
That is foreshadowing.
How you doing, Big Dog?
I'm really good.
Without getting into my weekend, which is an upcoming segment.
I went to bed last night, and I'm not joking.
845, probably asleep by 9 o'clock at the latest, and woke up, had a complete night's sleep,
did not wake up during the middle of the night, up at 6, and it's the best night's sleep
I've had in, and I'm not kidding, at least two years, maybe more.
Good for you.
Even when I'm out of the house, if I'm on vacation or something in a hotel, I can't sleep in
for whatever reason.
Now, I did not sleep in, but I did get to bed at a very early time, as I mentioned.
And I might have to just start doing that.
Now, 9 o'clock gets adventurous.
That's probably not going to happen most nights.
But I think 9.30, setting that goal, I think it's doable.
Oh, Davey's got it will be bedtime?
Yeah.
I slept on the couch last night.
Oh, no.
Well, I see it home home.
Yeah, wife kicked me out.
You do look spry this morning, Dave.
Really?
You look spry.
I got a lift in.
posterior chain.
I'm about to go start a membership at a gem, which I haven't done in two years.
Ooh, what is the influencer gym that Sauce goes to?
Lift ATX.
That's where you need to go.
That's where Sam Taylor, not to.
Did she ever respond?
No.
It ain't happened.
You're looking a little thirsty over there, fire out DMs.
I'm just trying to get her on the pod.
It'd be a good episode.
I think it's going to take someone in her comments mentioning it instead of, because her DMs,
she's a single, maybe not just a not married influencer in Austin who,
she probably gets a lot of people in her DMs help us put the word out we have an awesome contingency
right you know do it in a respectful way not like when we were who is the person that we were
really going after and like like trying to get on the show SVP no it was a young lady
Alexis Texas no no she was in my bowling class yeah califa no we had her on the show many
times okay never mind uh hey i've got a fun story funny to me so i did work out this morning
and uh i shower at the the gym afterward before i come into the office and there's um
probably 10 showers maybe more than that and um the one i chose at the end i walked in and someone
had left their shampoo i typically don't i bring my own face wash i don't bring my own shampoo or
soap i used the gym stuff and it was this stuff dylan
Spartan.
Spartan root activator shampoo.
And like, it was like a full bottle.
And I was like, oh, man, should I turn that into the lost and found?
And then, like, as I'm showering, I start reading the bottle.
Root activator shampoo promotes hair growth for a helm of hair as mighty, voluminous, and vigorous as a Spartan warrior.
Were they known for having thick heads of hair?
I don't know.
I don't think so.
I don't either.
And I thought about it, and I was like, man, if I turn this in to the front desk, if this guy, like, does this guy even try to claim it?
Because chances are the person he's going to have to deal with is going to be like a cute front desk girl.
And like the thought of her having to get his Spartan-themed volume hair shampoo is really embarrassing.
You tried it, didn't.
I swear to God.
I just like that there's guys out there like
I need the Spartan theme stuff
Dude guys okay
That's if you want to if you have a new
If you want to sell product to men
Just make it like like that
Just super aggressive
Like macho
Branding
And guys are going to buy it
Because they think it makes them like more manly
I swear it works man
It does
D dumb shit
It works on us stupid
We're all stupid
It works on us dumb ass men
Let's just look at all
the different sense of an old spice
if I was sharknato if I was looking
for like hair thickening shampoo and I
looking at the shelf and like
some options I might
go with that because it sounds dope like they
sold me on it even though there's probably
nothing it's probably the same as every other
like hair thickening
shampoo out there I think what I would do
is I make it like woolly mammoth themed
and like have like a woolly mammoth fighting a bunch
of like you know cavemen
or something like there's like yeah there's that
that popular
men's product brand Viking.
I purchased from Viking before
because it just sounds like super manly.
I have Viking face moisturizer.
You drink total war.
It's just like,
yeah,
it's just marketed at stupid men,
which I am a member of that group.
I just like that there's a guy
who's like getting his hair all,
his thinning hair,
presumably.
Yeah.
Because he's using the root activator shampoo.
He's holding on.
Yeah.
And he's just getting it in there
and he's like,
just thinking in his head about like his favorite
seen in 300 yeah yeah he's just it's gonna also give him a six-pack he's doing the 300 workout
like that says like he gets up a little bit early so he can throw on some like best of
montages from 300 yeah and he goes to the gym he's hit he's doing like i imagine this dude's doing
like uh crossfit style workouts yeah and then he goes and he's just like you know what
we'll cap it off a little activating the roots here we're we're in the era of really aggressive
branding like liquid death i think kicked this whole thing
At least that's self-aware.
This is, like, serious, like, really tapping into people that are into the...
But it's a minimalistic bottle design.
Like, I'm into that kind of shit.
I am.
It's like all-business kind of stuff, you know?
It's for a helm of hair as mighty, voluminous, and vigorous as a Spartan warrior.
I fuck with it.
Dude, the Spartans just had the best flow.
Everybody knows that.
Yeah.
This week, tomorrow, Patreon.

This weekend and fun presented by Roeback.
Roeback.
Boe back.
I was doing my Roeback shorts this morning at the gym.
I also did it.
I had my Roeback hat with a little Rhodesian Ridgeback dog.
I have a product to promote for them.
If you give me a sec, I'll find it.
Keep talking about Roeback.
Look, yeah, we all know.
about the polos. It feels like they drop a new polo every day. But if you are looking for some
game day gear, because college football, it did get here soon enough. Go on rollback. They've got
the official university licensed polos for like, and pullovers and even hoodies for most,
like, for most big universities, I feel like. I'm ready to rubber stamp my endorsement on the all
active shorts. Okay. They have a few different shorts and they're all great. Don't get me wrong.
the all active shorts i feel like they're being slept on and i don't know why they're so comfortable
they have an elite liner um i like i like the length a lot they're seven inch inseam they fit me
perfectly they're not like they're not a long seven they're like a short seven they're so great
the blue ones i wear in here sometimes that you guys won't stop complimenting on me on the all
active yeah i was surprised to learn those were seven yeah because uh for some reason when i think of seven
And I think of like, oh, it's covering your knee counts.
That's not the case at all.
A friggin' love.
These look good.
A friggin' love them.
These are very strong.
All active short.
Of course, you have the university licensed apparel, a ton of it.
They have, but they just added a bunch of new schools.
So go check to see if yours is included.
Not just big schools.
Yeah, they have a bunch of them.

Randall.
Hi, Dave.
Why don't you go ahead, buddy?
Oh, you want me to lead off?
Well, you teased it.
Yeah, I did tease it.
So, as everyone loves to hear about,
I'm still working on this tree project.
So I did a lot of that on Friday and Sunday
That was like my whole Sunday
But a little bit on Friday too
I'm such a basic bitch
I love home goods
The store is great
I'm sure there's people that are listening right now
Like fuck yeah
Home goods
The price is right over there man
It's amazing
And it's great
So I actually
I know it's still August
I'm not putting it out yet
But I did buy some Halloween decorations
For my place
I love it man
I'm a little basic bitch
I'm getting little candles, ceramic candles of different figures.
I want to do that for every holiday.
I'm going to have my own candle making kit.
So I'm just going to burn them and then just continue to make candles for the rest of my life.
You should make a candle that's like your body scent.
Yeah.
I'll make it, I smell like a Spartan.
Yeah.
You're just as vigorous and voluminous as a Spartan.
After like they rustle around with each other naked.
Spartans were known for having a good scent.
They smelled really good.
There's some other stuff they were known for that people don't talk about it.
Yeah.
I don't know if that guy who left his shampoo knows about that.
Maybe I should have kept it and found him and be like, hey, before I give you back your shampoo for your thinning hair, relatable.
Just want to give you some tidbits about the Spartans, you might not know.
It's stuff that you don't learn in history class.
Hey, remember that part in 300 where they would just kill the babies?
Not good.
Yeah, that hunchback joined the Persians because of it.
Anyways, so yes, I got a ghost of pumpkin and a little witch's cultron.
He's ready for spooky season.
I'm ready for spooky season.
Too bad we're not doing it this year.
Yeah, they've...
Don't say that.
Why aren't you doing it this year?
That's just the pressure.
Yeah.
We're doing spooky.
I'll resign.
This is the fourth time I've tried to say it.
I will resign if we don't do it.
Polish that resume, Haas.
So yeah, it was pretty much that.
And then Saturday went paddleboarding.
with friends of the show, Dan and Bouch.
We just went out there, got a little sunburned, but it was fun.
So it was a good time.
And then caught home and just immediately took a nap because I'm too old to be sitting
on the sun and not, you know, and stay awake afterwards.
Yeah, that river monster will get you.
Yeah, yeah, it did.
But got all the stuff standard for the sticks.
And now it's sitting in a, sitting my bathtub in a bath of diluted bleach.
And that's why I slept on the couch last.
night because I have the fan going and I have the windows in my room open, but I'm like,
you know what? I'm just not going to sleep in this room. It still smells way too much like
bleach from the bathroom. I'm worried you're going to get like rated by Homeland Security.
It's like you got a little chemical weapons lab going in your bathroom. Yep. You got to be
careful with those smells. I hope they're not watching live. It's like to go to take all my,
and you let them soak for at least 24 hours. They're going to ruin the whole project.
Your apartment is basically like a big smelling salt. Yeah.
Yeah.
So I slept on the couch.
You just walk into Randy's place and just get immediately locked in.
God.
Good for you, Randy.
I'm excited to see how it all comes together.
I'm happy.
I'm so glad that this was like the hardest part of it was just peeling all the bark and sanding.
Now everything else is actually going to be constructing.
So I'm excited for that.
That's good still.
Let me get mine out of the way.
We laid low Friday.
Saturday, however, we drove out to burn it, where they're fighting those rock quarries.
They really are.
They're really fighting these.
It's a big thing out there.
Anyway, we went out to what's the Colorado River, but known to some as Lake LBJ.
For a friend of the show, Dumb Zone's own, Jake Kemp, his birthday party.
There's like 28-ish of us staying at this big house out there, including, including KJ, got to hang with KJ in town.
It was a blast.
You talked to stand-up paddleboarding.
Yeah, me.
You know me if I get near a body of water and that's an option, I'm doing it.
And I did it.
It's crazy to think that you and I were on the Colorado River probably at the same time.
That's right.
It's a long river.
It is a long river.
Yeah.
water temps were good yeah water temps were good you know what the mornings were the breeze coming
off the river was quite nice it's got me a little excited for for what september may have in store
for us weather wise i mean i know we've we were talking about it out there you got some moisture
moving in got some moisture moving in he says um no it was it was great time i was up till one a m
probably why i went to bed so early last night but yeah hot tub pool fuck yeah
Uh, floating around with the, uh, life jacket diaper.
Oh, yeah.
Drinking some, uh, I love that cold beers, some ice cold beers.
It's a good move.
It's just a great time.
Um, ended the night watching, uh, with big group sitting around the TV, watching, uh, like,
best of scenes on, um, on YouTube watching, like, the best scenes from Sicario and shit.
It was just a bunch of dudes watching, like, like the, the, man shit.
The, uh, Matthew McConaughey.
true detective like tracking scene to one single shot going drug house to drug house we watched
that i think we watched that twice twice just dude wanting to see cool shit passing the spartan
around watching man shit on the tv just volumizing our hair vigorously so sick it was so great oh man
it's a great time uh listen i we tried to um we tried to hit blue bonnet cafe yeah in marble falls
line out the door
We got there early.
We got there at like 915.
And yeah, I thought we were beating the church crowd.
It was going to be a whole thing.
Nope.
There was a line just to get your name on the wait list.
So found another place.
The mats of the hill country.
Dude, yeah.
But the place is, it's awesome.
It is.
It's a real hill country ball nowhere place.
But we found a drive-through breakfast place off of 281, I think just outside of Spicewood.
That's very good.
I've passed it a number of times.
Got a croissant.
I got a cappuccino.
I know I typically only do cappuccino on vacation.
I was counting that as a mini vacation.
Okay.
So I did do a cappuccino yesterday for those wondering.
Okay.
Got some donut holes, brought them home to the boys.
Fuck it.
Yeah, that's a great, great time.
That's awesome.
Then, most yesterday was spent watching golf.
We'll talk Tommy Ladd here in a few.
Dylan.
I had an action-packed.
weekend do you want me to get to the altercation during this segment or what do you want to stand
a lot let's do it why don't you just build do everything but and then we'll do yeah square space and
then we'll do it so tease it was moving weekend for your boy that's i took friday off of work so
all day friday was the you know the heavy the heavy left and then saturday and sunday moving
emptying boxes putting stuff away how do people move more than like once every two three
Hey, let me tell you, based on my experience, you still have two more months worth of moving too.
Like, I understand like movers are very helpful moving the big stuff, but that's just such a small fraction of what you have to do to get a house ready.
It's like, yeah, it helps to have a moving company move your stuff.
But then there's just so much, I don't know how people do it.
I mean, I know people who move like more than once a year.
It's just, I don't get it.
I don't get it.
It's such an ordeal, such a pain in the ass.
I've just, I've been dead on my feet the last few days because I just.
It's just sun up to sundown, just constantly, just assembling furniture and emptying boxes.
Getting rid of boxes is a whole other fucking thing you got to do.
Why didn't you go live?
You should have just posted a phone and just posted the move.
I was just a mess all weekend.
I felt like I was just zombieed out.
I was just lifelessly walking around the place, putting stuff away for three days straight.
How's the body feel?
Dead.
Yeah.
Dude, I'm just dead on my feet.
Stuff also slept very well, not as early as you.
but got a lot of stuff done there's a nice little pool around the corner from our place we went to
and it's like sneaky like really nice and it's walkable like a neighborhood pool yeah nice we
walk to it and parks loves it so um two thumbs up the house we're very happy with it so far
met some neighbors a very nice older couple brought us a plant along with their contact information
they're lovely people there we go yeah so all that's going really well stepped out for a dinner
Friday night, which I'll get more into later. Hey, on this house, have you checked each load bearing
wall? Yeah, they're, they're bearing quite the load, all of them. How many do you have in the
house? Do you know? Quite a few, yeah. Okay. Yeah, quite a few walls that are bearing loads.
Okay. Yeah. How's a foundation? Good, man. I checked it out myself. Good. Yeah. Good. Yeah. Good foundation.
Yeah, I mean, we've had a little bit of, it's been a little bit of a wet summer. Yeah.
So there's probably been a little bit of shifting. Did the marble trick. Yeah. Or past flying
colors you usually do the ping pong ball trick yeah that too that too watch a little
a little ball farmageddon which i didn't know it was called farmageddon it's a great name
watch that that was fun dude mac campbell coach of the year yeah that was a fun a fun game started off
as sloppy as sloppy can get just classic week zero college football action you're telling me a week
zero game in dublin started sloppy i tweeted about this that poor dude for kansas state who
Muff the punt in the first quarter, like three minutes into the game,
twist his ankle, committed turnover, and he's out for the rest of the game.
That sucks, man.
He's thinking about this game all, you know, off-season.
I hope he linked up with the boys and got some pints.
Eight months, just like, fuck yeah, I get to play in Ireland,
and that's how his game goes.
I feel bad for that guy.
Anyway, like I said, I went to dinner Friday.
I'll get more into that later.

I also texted you and said, join us.
And you said you couldn't.
You responded to me, big dog.
That's interesting.
Yeah, we went to a little Mexican establishment called Serranos.
South Austin Gem.
The South Austin Gym.
according to my friend Mitchie.
And yeah, he'd been talking up.
So we went and I didn't know who was going to be there.
I knew that he would be there with his wife and kids.
I thought maybe our other buddy Eric would be there, but I wasn't sure.
He was there with his wife and kids.
He's he?
Yeah.
And then another couple that I didn't know and there are three sons.
So we're talking like all in all, I think nine kids.
They're going to squad.
Nine kids.
That's right.
And then six adults.
So we had a big old table in Serrano.
So you'd never been to Serrano.
And I think I've been, but it's, I mean, it's probably been 20, 25 years.
I have, I've never been in there.
I've almost certainly at some point door-dashed Serrano's, but I can't remember it.
Apparently they're under new management as recent as a few years ago,
and they've completely redone the menu, the interior, and it's, it's, listen, we got fajitas.
They were recommended, and they were really, really good.
What's the vibe in there?
Give me the atmosphere.
Um, it's, it's what you would expect.
I mean, it's, it's not, you know, it's, it's, it's like a good neighborhood, upscale-ish, Mexican place.
Mexican restaurant.
Yeah.
I don't know how else to describe it.
Family, family, family, kids in there.
And yeah, it was when, when, by the time we left, people were waiting out the door to get out.
So, I mean, it's, it's a popular joint.
Anyway, like I said, we were with nine kids.
we go in there we eat we're having a good time uh we finish eating and our our waiter was slow to bring
us to check and i mean like 20 30 minutes slow so when you have nine kids who have finished eating
and they all they're all they all know each other they tend to get a little restless and so they're
being kids you know uh run around you know being kids and i could feel that some
of the tables around us were looking, like, you know, looking on, you know, and these kids
are, you know, being kind of loud kind of way. They're being kids.
It's a Tex-Mex joint on Friday night. Yeah. There's going to be some kids. One table in
particular, two tables away from us. It's a group, it's a family, I think, and they're probably
eight to ten people deep, also a pretty big group, a couple kids with them. They, in this table
in particular, took an interest in our table. They were looking on,
And with extreme judgment, like almost making a point to, like, make eye contact with all of us.
I want to put a look over and like the entire table was looking at us.
One gentleman, and that's a generous term here, was looking at us very aggressively, very aggressively.
And at one point, he, pardon my language, says to one of the moms at our table, he says,
bitch-ass motherfucker this isn't a restaurant like oh shit what's what's going on what's about to happen
here and there's some some glares back and forth some words exchanged a manager comes over
what's a problem here and we're like in one of the other dads in our group the guy that I
didn't really know very well he said we've been waiting forever to get the check we just want to
leave basically what he says waiter comes over brings us our checks where we close out and I'm like
We couldn't get out of their fast.
What's the damage?
I don't know.
We got fajitas and a couple of drinks each.
That set you back though.
Standard pricing.
Happy hour, by the way, on a Friday night before six hours.
Man.
All right, man.
Poor Chelsea.
She doesn't know these people that we're with.
And she's like, she's caught up in all this.
And I could tell she's like getting pretty uncomfortable.
I'm trying to like, I'm trying to like calm her and be like,
leave as soon as we can.
I promise you.
So we're, we close that.
leaving the restaurant and some words continue to be exchanged between our group and this other
group i don't say a single thing my parks is not with us these are not my kids i'm just i just want
to get out of here at this point because i can tell that it wasn't going to end well so we're out
in the parking lot and some members of our group stayed back to continue talking to this family
and we got word from the manager that this family had been removed from the restaurant.
Oh, you don't want to get kicked out of the restaurant.
Yeah, they had been removed because of their behavior, and it was pretty egregious.
And as Chelsea and I are walking back to our vehicle, the guy, like the main antagonist of their group,
he leaves us out a side door to go into the parking lot.
And I don't know if this is because he's going his car to get something or because they got kicked out, but he was alone,
walks out the side door
and I make eye contact with them
and my intention was in like a diffusing manner
like hey man we're leaving like
you know I didn't say anything
but I kind of with my eyes I was kind of
you know like and we're out of here buddy you know
this is just like when he rolled down the window
and the fusing no this was not this was not like that
Dylan thought this guy was going to get lost
in his dark brown eyes he looks at me
and he says oh this guy this guy
because he just recognized me from the group right
he associated me with everyone else
You think he's a listener?
This guy.
No, he goes, and he goes, we're walking away at this point.
Like, oh, these guy is still pissed off.
We're walking away.
And he said, I will beat the fuck out of you to me.
Like, dude, I haven't done, I haven't done it.
I haven't said a word.
My kid is not here.
And Chelsea's like, I started to turn around to say something like.
Don't say the other thing.
Like, I didn't do anything.
I didn't do anything.
But I didn't say anything.
She's just like, we're leaving.
We're leaving.
She's like, this is the kind of guy.
And she wasn't wrong.
This is the kind of guy.
who has like a gun and is not afraid to use it like one of those types he looked unhinged
a little he just got kicked out of a little w t south austin jim he looked a little w t
like he went to w t white and dallas a little white trash like a little bit he had a little white
trash in him hell yeah uh so we were just like the best best course of action you get the
fuck out of here and as i'm walking away again saying nothing don't say this don't say i'm not
gonna say it he called me uh a fucking f freak on a leash call me a fucking
A slur. A slur. You know what that means, I'm sure. And I just, at this point, I'm like, I got to get Chelsea back to the car. She's like shaking. I feel bad. She's not the type that likes confrontation. She's shaking. She's scared. Get back in the car. And we just like, what the fuck just happened? And we're out of there. But it was a pretty hairy situation. And, yeah, I don't know. The questions, I mean, it was wild.
I was jealous of your diversely good looks.
Maybe that was of it when it was?
I don't think anything to do with the way I looked.
I think he was just really, really upset, and he was seeing red, and he was just going
to do whatever he could to piss people off on his way out.
Sounds like you might have been seeing double.
Yeah, I don't know if he was drunk.
I don't know if he was drunk or not.
But, man, it was, it was ugly.
It was ugly.
Whole restaurant was, like, aware of what was happening at that point.
Okay.
Would this prevent you for?
from going back to Serrano's?
No, no, I'll go back.
I'm telling you, the fajitas are a ball.
Good drinks, too.
Nobody talks about that place.
It's a hidden gym, Dave.
That's what I've heard.
It's not an apparent gym.
It's not an apparent gym.
It's a hidden one.
Well, that's because it's also in like a parking lot
with like a Best Buy.
And an Applebee's.
You see a Best Buy and you're like, oh.
Best Buy is still around?
And you see Serrano's, you're like, oh.
Yeah, there's a, yeah, like, juice laying there and a Best Buy and a Spex.
Yeah.
There's a Spex over.
No price of men's there.
I would like to, I'll go with,
you're going to go to Serrano sometime?
I don't know.
It's sneaky good.
I don't really,
I didn't do anything.
I didn't do anything.
I don't know if we're going to hang out with you anymore, you know?
I don't handle,
you're going to get hit by a car or have something.
Trouble just keeps following me around.
I ask for none of it.
I don't handle those situations well.
Dude, I don't, I didn't, I was like mortified.
I was just trying to shrink into my seat.
Like, please no one look at me, the kind of thing.
Like, I didn't know what to do.
So I just, I just,
I just kept my cool, laid low, and exited as soon as I can.
Here's a thing, and we talked about this a little earlier.
Restaurants typically, so at mats, which we frequently go to, which is not a hidden gym.
It is just a known gem.
It's the most known of gyms.
When I'm there with kids, like our kids or another, and like, you can, the waiter will sense, like, okay, typically like, oh, you got the kids.
They're like, oh, can I get you, you know, they're talking to the kids.
Can I get you, you want to try this, blah, blah, blah, here's some Sherbert, whatever.
And they can tell, like, we're trying to just get out of there without incident just because, you know, we've got one who's almost five, one, who's almost two.
Kids will be getting restless.
They don't like to, they don't like to linger in restaurants once they're finished.
So they will go out of their way to get that check to you.
And it's like, you're not, you don't have to leave, but we're just giving you like the out right now, right?
That, so a little bit of that is on the waiter.
The waiter's got to read, read his clientele.
Yeah.
You got that many kids.
It's like, here's a check.
Whenever you're ready, just want you guys to have it.
Because I know you guys might have, like, have to escape.
You might have to pull to shoot.
And it was, like we were, it was a busy restaurant.
I mean, all the tables were occupied.
So that, you know, that's understandable that he would be a little slow.
But it was, I mean, it was very slow.
How's the salsa?
Good.
Really?
How did the chips?
Good salsa, good chips.
How many chips do you consumed in tortilla?
Ooh, if you, if you measure it by tortilla, I probably had.
one and a half tortillas before my meal came.
Dude, man, I've been meaning to talk about this.
So when I go to these Tex-Mex places,
oh, yeah.
I will typically eat so many chips
that by the time my meal gets there, Randy,
I'm already involved.
Oh, I know how that goes.
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Ain't that just how it goes?
It's like, dude, this is like the meal in itself.
So I basically have like a double dinner.
Whoops.
You ever do double dinner?
Oh, yeah.
Sorry, I'm adding this to it.
It's a South Austin gym.
I'm going to try it.
Not with you.
No offense.
Dave and I are going to go on a date again.
Yeah, we'll go.
Me and Randy.
We'll go.
I'll leave the boys at home and we'll see.
Hopefully this one isn't as much food as K-Pot was.
Good place, but man, not fair.
Well, good on you for not escalating.
Yeah.
If it were my kid that was part of the situation,
it would give me a bit more skin in the game to like want to defend the group yeah but he wasn't
there and i was just like i just don't want to be i just don't want to disappear right now yeah the
parking lot confrontation like you don't want that what are you going to do because he was walking
he was walking to his car like that's why he left that side door and in the parking lot where else would
he be going why is he going to his car to get something to leave we don't know he was going to leave
but he had the rest of the group but he was by himself and it was a big thing
group that he was with so it was he leaving or was he going to grab something maybe they kicked him
out first more than anything because he was the instigator possibly maybe he was going to go sit in his
truck and listen to alice and chains yeah i don't maybe he's sitting in this truck until the
rest of the group could leave with him i don't know i don't know that's what i would have done if i got
kicked out but i wasn't going to stick around to find out why he was walking to his vehicle as you
did the right thing yeah oh yeah although um some people were saying that they saw you there
and they said that they saw you with some 3D printed mini p 10 15s and you put them on his car
i keep a satchel of those now just to just to prank people it's randy's dream to 3d print those
and prank his i decided not to get that guy it's something randy's been thinking about a lot it's his dream
i still got this little guy on my desk over here i don't like you're playing with it i can't
see it because the speakers i don't like what you're doing it again we're trying to like ride this
algorithm and you're they can't see it on screen but you can see it wiggle all right
right just if you're if you're just know randy's being okay randy's doing randy things mama there
goes that man well delin i'm sorry that happened to yeah i feel feel worse for chelsea she's
it's not her that's not her no i meant back no it's never been that's the thing yeah with chelps
but uh great weekend got a lot of stuff done at the house so got more to do that's part of the
reason chelps and i split up got parks his room completely set up he loves it Chelsea
told me he's either her or me fist fighting on the weekend.
And there you are.
And I chose the fist fights.
You can't take Dave out the game, man.
No, man.
I just love, I just love going out with my family and ending the night with a fight in the parking lot.
This guy was, who does this?
This guy, he had, he had crazy, crazy face.
It's one thing.
Crazy guy eyes.
I get like, whatever.
It, he looked like he wanted smoke.
Oh, man.
Like he was just looking for smoke.
Yeah.
One of those guys.
You know what talk.
You know the type.
Dude, those people that would go out to the.
the bar just clearly trying to like bump into people and start fights were just just the
worst people yeah this guy that's what this guy that was that was uh my my friends at uh the 18
the teen the teen bar in high school in high school he was like yeah let's go let's go shoulder
bumps some south grand prairie guys yeah see what happens let's get in a squad fight let's get in a
frat stop situation again that's we were 18 yeah don't do that don't do that don't i've had i've had one or two
of those moments i'm sure yeah it's very 23 yeah it's it's very bad you're just feeling yourself like yeah
fuck these guys who looked at us as i as i sink behind all my friends who like play o line i'm like
yeah fuck these guys yeah you know what videos i do enjoy like a full-on fight isn't you know
could get out of hand but people being like really aggressive and just getting maced in the face
i i love those videos because they immediately just like back down because it's nice yeah exactly
but it's so fun watching yeah a non-lethal way to just end a situation like that i'm all for
Look, fights, they scare me
People get really fucked up
How funny would it be to mace somebody
And then just do
Whoa, are you quiet
Did you get Mace in the face?
You got Mace, you can't see nothing here
You get Mace in the face
Oh no, you can't defend yourself
Because your eyes are bleeding
Oh, you can't see anymore
You can't see for the next 20 minutes
Oh no
That was graded for a bear
But you got hit, oh no
Bear Mace
That's what you need
I'm not gonna walk around with Mace
That's a guy can't carry Mace
In his car, maybe, but not on his person.
I don't know, so it's pretty effective, dude.
Whenever you see Mace keychains being sold in the store, they're definitely for women.
They're like bedazzle.
We need to, no, no, no, no, we need to, that's going to be our next cause.
We need to change the stigma.
We need to make Spartan Mace.
Women should carry Mace.
Yeah, Spartan Mace.
Yeah, just like they did back in the day.
Women should carry Mace.
They, yeah, frequently do.
I'm all about that.
Yeah.
Chelsea's got that thing.
on her. Not all the time, but she carries that thing on her. Yeah. Oh. Oh. She's got a license
for it. I got that thing on them too. Excuse me? That little thing that you 3D printed.
Yeah. Ed and 3D printed it. It's a little squishy guy. Well, I'm glad you didn't. I'm glad.
So the funniest thing was that I was so one of the guys that Dylan was with is I also know him
for college and he's in my fantasy league. So I'm hearing about this from that.
group text and Dylan hadn't said anything. So I hopped over to the circling back group text and
was like, I was going to wait for the Monday morning fill in, but I guess Mitchell spilled the beans.
Yeah, I want, yeah, I'm, I was like, I was getting like secondhand like adrenaline reading it.
I was like, do I need to like drive down there and make the situation way worse? It was a situation,
man. Do I need to just pull up with my mace? God. What if I just mass mace the parking lot?
Oh, no, Randy, Randy with his little chemical weapons lab.
Yeah.
He could have pulled up with his stick.
With my tree limbs.
Your bleach stick.
Your bleach stick.
You swing that thing around.
Randy sacrifices a thing he's been building for like three months to like defend you.
And like some of his skills he learned from Japan.
I did learn how to do a sword kata.
So yes, I didn't learn a little bit.
Hmm.
You've been hiding that.
Yeah.
Well, thank you for sharing.
Thank you for your courage.
I guess we got to talk Tommy Ladd, the tour champion.
Yes, because of my very busy weekend with moving, I didn't watch any golf.
I shouldn't have you know.
I was not around a golf crew on Saturday, but I was around a lot of people who are at least aware of golf.
Jake, the dumb zone, Jake's not a, I don't want to put words in his mouth or label him, but he's not super into golf.
I think that's not telling any tales out of school.
But he is aware that Tommy's got a little reputation
and that Tommy just hasn't gotten it done over here in the lower 48.
Yeah, I mean, we talked about it recently.
It kind of makes him more of a likable character, I think.
Our love affair with Tommy Fleetwood and this company goes back a long way.
Just it's like, oh, here's a guy with sick flow.
So that immediately catches our eye.
Like you see a dude.
He's also a lad.
He's an Englishman.
Soft-spoken, you know, puppy dog eyes, unlike you and your menacing brown eyes.
That's right.
Just piss people off, apparently.
Apparently.
But also, like, when he's been in Austin, everybody who interacts with him says, like, dude, he's, like, the best guy.
Like, when they used to do the Dell match play here, like, he was really friendly and personable with the people who would go out there during the practice rounds.
The dog.
He loves dogs.
Loves dogs.
We love dogs.
So we've rooted for Tommy
Even though he's killed us in the Rider Cup
Just like everybody roots for Tommy Fleetwood
And his name's Tommy
And you can chant it
There's songs you can do with it
They've done it
It's just like when you think of like a cool English guy
It's Tommy right
So for him to like have so many like
Close calls and heartbreaks
It's been tough
And then yesterday
I get home I'm tired
I'm sitting on the couch
And I just I lock in
He's playing in the final group
with Patrick Cantlay
with his Apollo
global management hat
his slow play
Cantlay has gotten worse
yesterday was egregious
they got they got warned a couple of times
it was tough to watch
he's really doing the thing
where you stand over the ball too long
and you're just waiting
you're like
nothing can go right
when you stand over the ball too long
I'll learn that like the hard way
back in the day
so many golfers have that problem
they can't pull the trigger
it's usually an amateur thing
but you're just standing over
with so many thoughts
in your head you're scared to
to pull the trigger um but it became clear um by i don't know but mid back nine 15 or 16
to Tommy's Tommy's not only he's going to do this and he's going to do this and it's not
going to be dramatic and uh it was a lot of fun how many stroke city went by two or three
i think three just two put par on 18 left the birdie put a little short um tap in
boom saw some raw emotion from tommy and then you see um i guess a lot of people aren't that
into to where they don't know that he is uh he is his wife is a little bit older than he is significantly
hell yeah i get it and then out to greet him was his stepson who just looked like a dude that
would be rolling with us.
His stepson's like, so Tommy, I don't know how old Tommy is.
Look that up, Randy.
Tommy's like in his late 30s.
And she's 57, I believe?
Yeah.
And his stepson appears to be like 34.
Okay, 34.
His stepson appears to be like 28.
And ran out on the green and everybody's like, oh yeah, I forgot.
Like, that's Tommy's stepson.
And it just looks like one of his absolute boys.
And then the discourse kind of became, dude, how tight would that be if like...
If he was your stepdad?
If your stepson was just like one of the boys.
I'm looking at pictures now.
Randy, if you find any pictures of Tommy and his stepson, throw them up.
But one of our listeners, somebody on Twitter said he's the stepson who stepped up.
I already added that to run it back.
It's so good.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah, I think that's him.
Look at that, dude.
he's just just a grown a grown man Oscar Craig I saw somewhere said that he's 18 I don't know
about that he's a good player in his own right either way he's old enough to like to roll it's just
funny seeing somebody that age be his stepson and I know that's like not probably that uncommon
but the fact that like how tight would that be if like Tommy was your stepdad I mean yeah I'm 31 and like
So, like, imagine me just having, like, a very old stepson.
Yeah, a full on adult, pretty much.
It's sick.
Go to arcade together, go bowling.
Dude.
Do all this stuff.
Go get pints.
Go play.
Show up, like.
How cool that'd be if Tommy Fleetwood was your stepdad.
So sick.
Be real sick.
Be real sick.
Chill sitch.
You got a group text.
Like, you know that's a problem, though, with mom.
Like, she probably gets a little jealous of y'all just, like.
going off and hanging out, playing like...
Are you guys at the pub again?
Going in the pub.
Probably like...
Yeah, Mom.
Playing Mario Party.
Doing Dungeons and Dragons.
Just hanging out.
They probably got like a separate, a side text.
Like, there's the family group text with mom, and then they've got like the side
text that they're really doing work in, sharing, like doing the memes, doing some aggressive
memes, sending Sidney's Sweeney picks.
So you're step loot?
Yeah, is your step loot.
That's good.
How good is that?
yeah dude that that's that's good i'm happy for tommy man i'm too got that monkey off his back
watch out how many days until the masters uh too many many am i right yeah yeah it's a trick
question we got football to get us by for a little bit don't worry you think tommy used
spartan shampoo to activate his follicles maybe probably that's a flow right there he's
he took his hat off after he won and my gosh man it's thick too i would honestly like i would
there's money i would i would pay to have that he doesn't even need spart no he doesn't we need
he needs to just drop tommy yeah and it's just him it's just his product line his that would crush
i would buy that for good flow Tommy and then the subheader or sub tagline for good flow for good
flow flow with the lads flow your stepson will be proud
of.
Yeah, stepson got some flow as well.
You think, like, him and his stepson just, like, go drive around, like, on, like,
a random night and just dipping, like me and the boys used to do in high school, just
drive around?
Just dipping?
Yeah.
No, I don't think they do that.
I think they just go to a bar and, like, shoulder check Grand Prairie guys and try
to get in fights.
Let me tell you, that'll work.
Yeah, they probably, I don't know.
Tommy seems a little too gentle to go pick fights.
Yeah.
When's the last time Tommy got in a fight in a Serrano's parking lot?
He's not the public confrontation type, I don't think.
think you think anybody's ever had an issue with tommy's table i doubt it no no god i mean that
parking lot definitely uh used to share parking lot with the apple bees there so i'm sure there's
been multiple fights in that parking lot before oh they they they spill out in the parker out
at the same time oh they meet in the middle like the applebee's parking lot was like made for
fights it basically they they should just put an octagon around it i i didn't really understand
the like concept of club apple bees i didn't know as a real
thing until this was a couple years ago, Labor Day a couple years ago. Omar and I went and we got
there at like 8 o'clock and we had a full meal and like we were one of maybe like 10 people in the
restaurant. But when we left at like 10, the place was packed. You shouldn't have left.
Like dude, we didn't realize we were early for Applebee's. Like it was. Yeah, they were they were starting
to get going. I didn't realize it was a late in a spot for people. Go put on man in the box or some
just go drop 30 bucks on some Alice and chains.
They were playing some great music.
They played Chad Kroger and Santana.
And I was like into the night.
And I was falling in love, plays and smash mouth.
It was great people who go there.
It was, there was a deal that if you spent $50, it was like a date night for two.
If you spent $50, you would get two tickets to go see Top Gun Maverick.
Omar and I both got like two drinks, appetizer and meals.
when we did not meet the $50.
It was like, this is amazing.
Wow.
No, but you got to go see it with us later on.
Front row at IMAX.
Yeah, front row at the IMAX.
Oh, that's great.
Let's save Danuch and Avery Johnson for tomorrow.
Okay.
Let's run it back and get home.
Let's run it back.
Of course, that's this segment during what we already talked about.
Dave's about to get that Spartan flow.
Randy is a basic little bitch.
I am.
Love home goods.
When Dave goes to Tex-Mex places, he tends to eat too many chips before his meal comes, and he's not even hungry anymore.
It's kind of my vice, actually.
Spartan Mace for Men needs to be a thing.
Tommy's stepson is a son who stepped up, and finally, Randy loves a club Applebee's.
And that concludes running back.
Hell yeah.
We'll be back tomorrow, 11th Central.
We got some stuff to talk about.
Great show.
Great show.
Good start to the week.
It's going to be a strong week.
We've got football coming up.
to talk about. Also, AMA, going to do an AMA for the patrons tomorrow afternoon. Coffee Friday.
Yeah, tomorrow afternoon. I'll drop the time here in a sec. All right. Bye. Bye.
You know what I'm going to do.
