What's a circling back
It's a circling back podcast. It's Monday morning.
My name is Dave.
Welcome to the show.
Here's the circling back podcast.
We've got quite the show ahead of us.
Got a lot to get to.
A lot of insane glazing.
You won't see glazing this hard anywhere else.
Producing the show, Randall Trembachie.
Hi, Dave.
Maybe at Crisp and Cream you would.
I bet you didn't know I know how to Crip Walk.
You didn't know that, did you Dave?
Yeah, you probably didn't know that, you probably didn't know that, you probably thought he just didn't know how to Crip Walk.
Yeah, I mean, that's something I was thinking about recently.
Yeah, yeah, and I proved you wrong.
I was power ranking the Crip Walkers at Washed Media and I had you at like four or five.
Wow.
Damn, dude.
Yeah.
Damn.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait on.
Who was I competing with?
Who was flawless?
Yeah, that makes sense.
think brett even knows what that is i don't know i mean he's from saratoga springs new york
didn't he randomly pull out like a houston rap song like he did he knew really well loki loki did
it was i mean he was aware of a of a mike jones reference who correct yeah but it's not like
a deep pull i'm just i'm gatekeeping a little bit here that's what i do though uh well randy i hope
I hope you're ready to produce the pot at a very high level.
I think I already am.
You know what?
Everything's coming together on that face.
Yeah, yeah.
What?
Yeah, I think I'm going to...
The scumble looks good.
I'll trim the beard down sometime this week and then I'll...
Randy, low-key.
I think you should just keep that look right there.
No.
I think you give the beard.
It's good.
Man, your sole patch could be real scummy if you wanted it to be.
Mm-hmm.
I don't know, Randy.
I think that might be a better look than just stashed with a little shadow.
I think if you shave everything and leave that stash in that sole patch and get a monster energy, like a white one, you could be really turning some heads.
That's right.
I could be a problem at the construction site.
What's that mean?
Construction workers drink white monster.
A problem like you, you're fucking up like you shit.
Hooking up with chicks?
You fucked up the rebar?
D, all the above, man.
You laid the rebar.
I'd become the white monster.
I don't know who put this rebar down, but they fucking snapped on this.
Oh, that was Randy.
He's the guy with the sole patch and the mustache.
Yeah.
Makes sense.
There's probably a few Randy's drinking monsters out there.
Oh, hell yeah.
Let us know.
Let us know in the comments.
What's up, YouTube?
Dylan Shivery's here.
I got two things.
First of all, are you guys, like the gift that I brought in for everybody?
It's a vibes.
Why don't you save it for a full sec?
It's a Vives.
Okay, you want to do a full seg on that?
I think you should.
I mean, you brought it in, did a whole thing.
I think it could be a seg for Dylan.
I have a backup intro, monologue, okay?
Shout out to Jamie and John, who sent us to save the date.
I assume they're both listeners on the back handwritten.
They said, we love you guys with a little heart.
You see?
And they're getting married in Monterey, California.
Beautiful.
Next year, next April.
Really?
They're not getting married at the Sofi Center?
They're not getting married at the Sofi Center.
Jamie and John, just a beautiful couple.
And, hey, guess what, Dave?
Put it right here.
Right right there.
Oh, the, let me read the...
Put it right there.
He's saying on the mini fridge.
I'm looking at it.
I'm reading it.
Put it right here.
We're going to put her straight on the fridge.
That's just going to say the dates.
Would you calm down?
This is the first I've seen this.
Put it right there.
All right, man.
It's just a lovely couple.
Jamie and John.
Hey, listen, we're probably not going to go.
We're probably not going to go because it's in Monterey, California.
But it is fantastic to be invited.
It's very heartwarming and we're very thankful.
One of these, we need to show up to.
Yeah, we should.
Get invited to one maybe every month, every other month or so.
It's probably not the one in Monterey, California.
I'm sure it's beautiful.
Why not that one?
It sounds like a sick one to show up to.
Just because it's, you know, you got to get on a plane, get lodging.
It's just an expensive ordeal.
Company can pay for it.
It's a company-related event.
We pay the company's credit card, though.
Yeah.
We own the business.
Sometimes you have to spend money to make money and make content.
It's kind of how it works.
We're going to make money out there.
Dylan Shivery.
Oh, another one.
I'm happy to be here.
It's going to be a great week of content.
We've got vibes going because of this little thing here.
Save it for the segment that we just carry.
Yeah, save it for the segment, man.
People can't wait.
It had a barbecue.
Oh, man.

What else, Randall?
What are we looking at for Patreon?
Co-call.
It's a co-co-call.
Sheesh.
Cole, I hesitate to do it.
We're on like a hot streak.
No, it's cold calls, not hot.
Fair.
Fair.
I just, we've had two heaters back to back.
Or freezers.
Whatever you want to do.
What if you want to continue?
We've had two absolute freezers back to back.
So it's just, yeah, it's like, oh, man, the first time somebody doesn't answer tomorrow
if that hard to happen, it's just going to really tank.
We might have to turn on the Bluetooth speaker.
Then we're going to track together and just whip the shit out of you, too.
No, that's a,
a great one. If you're new year, we do, we do two Patreon shows a week, please. One is on Tuesday.
One drops Friday. The Friday one's listener voicemails, you can call into our Hoss line,
877-352-h-haws. It's 877-352-4-6-77. We'll visit voicemail. We'll answer your question,
your concern, address your concern, whatever you want to do. Just keep it tactical.
And then Tuesday, we run through a variety of shows tomorrow. We call. We'll put up a form. People
can submit like, hey, I want you guys to call me. I got this I need to talk about. Or I have this
crazy story or maybe this crazy event is happening. We don't know. But cold calls tomorrow.
We record that between two and three central. So if you're available to cold call or to receive a
cold call, two to three central tomorrow, I'll post the form on Instagram and on Patreon. But
go subscribe to the Patreon. Go try it out. Maybe free for a week or just go join. Got a couple different
tiers, a few, whatever. Who knows?
Theme week coming up.
We've got to decide.
Maybe this week we'll decide what theme week is.
The final Tuesday of every month on Patreon, we do a new theme.
Last time we did Roommate Week up there.
These have all been great.
There's a roommate week.
There's a house party week.
There's a fumbled to what?
Coochie.
I don't know what that is.
I don't either.
That was on there.
You can go listen to all this stuff.
The back catalog, it just lives there.
Go check it out.
But we'll decide Wednesday what that's going to be.
And yeah, that's that.
Let's talk about this weekend of fun.
Bro, let's go out this weekend.
There's a crazy event happening.
I like to turn off.
Bro, there's a crazy event happening.
We had the party and it was lit.
I got yelled out by a prostitute.
Let's just go have fun and they go with it.
Little more, bros.
Let's go.
This weekend and fun, presented by Bonobos.
How about being just draped out in linen this summer from Bonobos?
How about that?
You know, I came through with that linen the other day.
We went to Maddell Ranchos.
You did rock the shirt.
I got a couple shirts.
I got some really dope linen pants.
I'm happy to have these guys on board because, A, my closet has a bunch of them already.
So it's just kind of, you know, easy.
And then B, like, they sent us some more stuff, and it's really dope.
And now it's worked its way into my rotation.
Y'all haven't even seen my other one.
My other linen button down they sent me.
Okay.
I want you to describe it to the folks.
I'm going to hit y'all with it here pretty soon.
soon. It's a long sleeve button-down linen shirt with blue and white stripes. You have to really
just see it to believe it. Well, you really paint a picture. Yeah. But Obos is one of those brands where
you put something on and immediately notice the difference. Their clothing always feels great and the pieces
are built to move more seamlessly between casual and elevate moments without needing a full
outfit change. It's true. The linen pants, I feel like you're versatile. I've been, I'm going to go
ahead and just expose myself here. I didn't have linen pants until they sent me some a few weeks.
That's embarrassing. Yeah. What makes Bonobos different from other men's clothing brands if you didn't
know. Bonobos originally got popular from nailing the perfect fit in men's pants. Before that,
everything was either too boxy or weirdly tight in the wrong spots. Can confirm. They came in,
fixed that problem, and the guys noticed right away. Now they've taken that same approach to your entire
wardrobe, like we said. They've got the short sleeve button downs, the linen shirts, the linen pants,
all sorts of stuff.
The best part is you don't have to think about it.
You can throw on a pair of their chinos or a polo
and just look put together, not fussy.
It's not overstyle.
It just works.
So put on Bonobos, feel good.

circling back sent you, Dylan.
Ooh, thanks, Dave.
Friday was so, I don't even remember what I did Friday.
Okay.
We didn't come in here.
We had the day off.
I think I just hung out with, with Chelsea and with parks.
We had a big rest of the weekend coming up, so we didn't do a whole lot.
Saturday, big day, as we all know, 4th of July, whole thing.
Oh, actually, you know what?
On my back up, I know what I did Friday.
We went to the pool.
We went to our little neighborhood pool with the fan.
We had a great time.
All right. Chelsea made chicken salad sandwiches for everybody.
Just crushed it.
Saturday, we went over to my dad's house.
Kids were over there playing.
He bought this pretty nice, like, bounce house for the kids.
It has like a little pool feature.
The kids just love it.
By kids, I mean, my son and my nieces who are three and five.
Okay.
So is that one of the ones with like a slide, like with the inflatable ladder?
Facts.
Yeah.
Facts, yeah.
Those are great.
They are great.
It's a good investment.
The kids love it.
It's pretty easy.
It's easy to, you know, and everybody enjoys it.
After back-to-back, water days.
Yesterday was pretty chill.
Watch some footy, ran some errands with the Costco.
I got my first ever Costco hot dog.
Did you get an executive membership?
Chee-Ce has a membership there.
I don't know which one it is.
I don't think it's executive.
I guess I won't see you there early then.
I think we're just common folk.
Dave, Dave, El Glyz-Dente, you get a hot dog and you're not going to...
I know, right?
Like, that's the first thing.
I'm the new El Glydez.
My first ever Costco dog.
He's mad because I'm the new El Glyz, so he's kind of trying to, like, claw back in or I guess, I don't know, a bun back in.
He's mad.
He wants the throne.
You can't have the throne.
The Costco hot dog.
Iron Glyzies.
Is a jumbo ballpark dog.
It's the same same.
And that's a compliment.
I love, they're really good.
It's the same dog, though.
Now he's trying to like, he's trying to act like he's the hot dog.
He's the hot dog guy.
What?
Did you even watch the hot dog eating contents this weekend?
Dude, I watched only the, the female one, the ladies.
Why did you watch that one?
Because we had to leave, we left.
So I, I'd miss the man.
How did chestnut do?
I don't know.
I didn't watch.
I'm not the, I'm not even in contention for Al-Glizante.
I lost in the primaries to you two.
Yeah.
You got burnied.
Yeah.
Sorry, they didn't watch you.
Back then they didn't want me.
Now I'm hot.
Every, every child in this nation should have a hot dog at lunch.
What do we think of that new Larry David show?
I just seem kind of like a mad.
I've seen, I've heard one sketch from it, and that sketch was good, but then otherwise, I see people shitting on it.
Yeah.
And I wonder if I just, maybe if I want an actual take on it, I just, I stop looking at Twitter and I just go watch it.
Yo, the football yesterday was crazy.
By football, of course, I mean footy.
Yeah, there's a larger segment about it.
It was crazy.
You can hold that hot take.
Okay.
That's pretty much.
Oh, we went to ECHO last night.
We closed it down with a little ECHO, and it was maybe the best ECHO I've ever had.
They were just in their bag yesterday.
Did you hug the bartender this time?
No, but we, we're on a handshake basis now.
Every time I see him, I shake his hand.
I want to shake his hand.
It was so good last night.
All right, that's all I got.
Rain, what's up with your shit?
I'll need to go to Echo Mexico sometime.
Friday, did a pool day, did a little pool day.
And then got pizza.
And let me tell you, Dave, I'm here to spread the good word.
The good word of pizza.
And that is Italian food.
Dude, Pizza Hut is back.
No one out pizzas the Hut.
Don't look disgusted on your face like there.
I'm telling everyone now, get the original pan pizza Hut pizza.
It is amazing.
Stop saying it's amazing.
It's some of the best pizza I've had recently.
Don't even, don't knock it until you try it.
I've never had.
I mean, dude, I know.
I'm a noted.
My son went through a Pizza Hut phase.
Dude, I'm a noted no crust eater.
32, oh man, I don't care if that makes me a child.
Their bread is so perfectly crispy and buttery that I want to eat the, I want to eat the crust.
I know we have a backer that works for Pizza Hut.
about the Dallas meetup.
I got to say, whatever you guys are doing there,
this is a new, the original pan.
Can you?
Can you? Because I am trying.
I'm trying to good word.
Pizza Hut.
Look, I've always said nobody out pizzas the hut.
I've always said that too.
Now, stop trying to become El Zahaw.
I'm here spreading the good word of Pizza Hut and you're trying to be a new El Zop.
El Zoppo.
Jesus crust.
Huh.
Okay.
That's a, that's a joke from an old dang.
Cook movie.
Jesus cross.
We're doing Dane Cook jokes.
I don't know we're doing Dane Cook jokes.
You went through a Dane Cook phase.
I did not have a Dane Cook phase.
I know who you were hanging with back then and they were always watching Dane Cook.
I know what I'm talking about.
Yeah, I do.
I do.
Hey, Dave.
Dude, it was always on.
What's up with that?
I don't know.
And like, honestly, like, he's, he would, there's a time where he became kind of a punchline,
but like, he had funny bits for a time.
I think it just people, like started pointing out, like,
he does a lot of stuff that's like okay maybe it didn't age well i don't know age well like from
like making a lot of noises and stuff yeah i don't know me i don't know i don't know i don't want to be a
hater right i do a lot of stuff that sucks too yeah pretty much all of it yeah what are you
doing giving dave the superfinger the dankook superfinger is that okay yeah yeah you are you like a
no but you see the concept of that movie dylan was that when a woman would break up with a guy
these guys would hire Dane Cook
to be their next guy he went on date with
and just be a total absolute asshole
and terrible date
so the girls would go running back
to their ex-boyfriend
that they just broke up with.
It's kind of funny.
And see Dane Cook brought this really religious girl
to a pizza place called Jesus crust.
It's very sacrilegious.
Got it.
Did he fall in love with one of them?
Oh, his best friend's girl.
Really?
He said, he said, he's like,
I'm not doing friends and family.
And then he fell in love with it.
It was a big old deal.
It's a rom-com.
You hear about these things?
Romantic comedies.
Yeah.
Anyways, get Pizza Hut, get the original pan pizza.
There's really good.
There's another Randy side sponsorship.
I wish.
You got to declare that.
I wish Pizza Hut would sponsor me.
Taco Bell Pizza Hut.
They're going to,
I know it's going to happen.
This happened at Grand Ex from time of time.
You and you alone, you're going to get a gift box from them.
And you're going to get like a Pizza Hut jumpsuit or something.
Like Jared got the Chili's stuff.
Like, Arby sent this one one time.
But it was like, you have the meat suit, don't you?
Sally recently got a Taco Bell box.
And, like, Will was like, I don't understand.
Sally doesn't talk about Taco Bell at all.
Why does she get one?
She's living moss.
I live Moss.
No, she sounds like Sal Gowl.
No, I live Moss.
Anyway, so that was Friday.
It was really good.
Saturday was another pool day.
Fourth of July, we had two of Megan's friends over.
Did some grilling, did some hot dogs and some brots.
then went to downtown for the fireworks.
I auditorium shores.
They had a little festival there.
Saw the symphony.
Saw my first drone show, Dylan.
Oh, wow.
How was that?
It was good until the next morning I woke up to TikTok to a just a different one in Texas
that completely blew Austin's out of the water.
Was it a boomtown?
I was in Boomtown or something.
I don't know where it was, but it looked sick.
But it was cool getting to see a drone show.
Fireworks were good.
And then Sunday was a big kind of just relax and then just shopping, clean up the place, watch the house of the dragon.
With the girl at the drone show.
A lot of...
It's crazy they just have thousands of people just operate, operating those individual drones and they're just so in sync.
It's so impressive.
It's like the Blue Angels.
It's not how they do it, by the way.
We know that.
Don't come out of us.
It's impressive.
Each one has its own operator.
So there's just like 500 operators.
all just locked in.
Yeah.
All like all just on the same cycle.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
That was a good Fourth of July weekend.
Very relaxing.
A lot of pool time.
Saw some fireworks.
Got to eat some grilled meat.
Got to have some great pizza.
And yeah, I yield my rest of my time to you, David.
You're yielding to me.
I guess El Zah yields it to Elglaz.
The new Elglaz.
I was out in a northwest Houston-ish, Cyprus.
where we go every year. I said spring on the show. I make that mistake. It's like right kind of close to the
border of spring and cypress. But that doesn't matter. Although some say the devil lies in the details.
We stayed at her uncle's place. We do this every year on the fourth. We two did the meats,
a little brisket, some ribs. A little pool time, a lot of pool time. Actually, it was in the pool quite a bit.
Watched a lot of fireworks. We'll do a larger segment on this.
that road trip down there. Just a not a bad drive. Go through Giddings, though. Giddings is kind of like this
halfway point. And like you go through like this very old town's square part that's like,
businesses shut down, looks kind of depressing. And everything backs up there at this light and,
you know, your 20 cars deep. And then you go further into Giddings. And then it's like a,
it's like the Wizard of Oz when it goes from black and white to color. But it's instead of like,
something beautiful. It's just like, it's like a bunch of high-end gas stations and like a lot of
like fast food and like strip balls and stuff. So it's just like this. It's the juxtaposition.
Ooh. I would say of going through this is like dead part of town. There's like a railroad,
a railroad track you go over and you're just like, oh man, this is sad. Getting's is sad.
And then you get on the other side of it. And it's just like the lights. Everything gets some color.
And it's like, wow, there's a Conoco.
Wow, is that a sitcom?
It's crazy.
Look at that.
There's a combination pizza hut and Taco Bell.
That sounds like my perfect place to be.
Yeah.
I'm worried about you, Rain.
He's at the Pizza Hut.
Okay.
We used to have one outside of our high school and we called it Taco Hut.
They're going away.
What does this country come to?
Sad.
250 years and we can't keep Taco Bell pizza huts around.
Fourth of July, Saturday morning.
uh we had it on uh whatever network was showing the uh ship the the what's the harbor what's the harbor
in new york city golf america nope the harbor in new york city of course is called um the hudson
the new york harbor once i think it is just new york harbor but they had the uh the 250th celebration
and you had a bunch of old ships from all across the world people coming to pay uh homage
or homage to America on her birthday.
And it was a bunch of old, look it up.
Would you look it up and just kind of pull up just some red-up?
Like Chile had like a really, like just very dope old style ships that are for show.
But it was cool.
And then, of course, I had all the flyovers at this thing.
I don't know if anybody else caught this.
It just happened to be on.
And I just found myself like sitting there like, yeah, this is kind of sick.
I miss this, dog.
I know you'd have to download it and PK unzip it to make this work.
But there we go.
Yeah, just a lot of ships like that just kind of on display.
That's cool.
Yeah.
Like an old ship.
That's what it was.
It was just like hundreds of them.
It was pretty cool from all from all over the world.
Flyovers were sick, helicopters, blue angels were there.
Everybody loves the blue angels.
I did see the flyover with the American flag.
That was pretty cool.
I thought this was very tastefully done.
Parade of ships.
Yeah, here we go.
New York Post has a good one.
Oh, that's a battleship.
Cruiser, yeah, most of them.
Look at the choppers, dude.
Yeah, man.
That's real cool.
New York Harbor was just buzzing.
I had no idea this is going on.
I know we're talking about fireworks later, but New York has a fireworks.
I didn't either.
And I'm glad this, they had this.
Because this, I thought, I thought this was kind of the highlight of the 250 celebration.
This one's kind of sick.
Celebration.
Yeah, that's a great photo.
Yeah, right outside.
Go up.
It's not a very flattering photo of JD fans.
Look at that, dude.
Yeah, a lot of old time.
They had the Red Baron fly through and he was just fucking, he's still around.
He was dropping pizzas off.
The Red Baron pizza guy.
That's the best is all.
Give me Red Baron over the HUD any day.
Yeah, there they are.
There's the-
Blue Angels.
Love the Blue Angels with the first jets.
That's every kid, every 90s kids.
Oh, hell yeah, dude.
I didn't see this stuff.
stealth.
Let's go.
Oh, we also watch Independence Day.
That's, uh, that's very dope.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, that's about it.
Man, a lot of pool, a lot of, uh, getting out walking around the neighborhood for the fireworks.
Uh, more on that in a bit.
A lot of footy.
I had footy on at all times this weekend.
We're going to do a larger World Cup segment.
people have been champing at the bit for us to do that.
And this time it's warranted because I think we were all locked in.
I was lost.
Probably, but that's okay.
Dylan and I were, the boys out there were.
That was just fucking incredible.
It was, dude.
I can't, I got some major announcements on my fandom.
Some major things are happening right now in D-Ruff's fandom.
From there, went home Sunday.
Phil a little banged up from bouncing around the pool and tossing
tossing a football and tossing a five-year-old and a two-year-old around.
But other than I got in, I had a little whirlpool time this morning.
Had it a little light workout.
It's WTI week.
I wanted to do it too hard, but still got in there, was moving around, getting the blood flow going.
So I'm feeling good, man.
WTI week.
It's WTI week.
Maybe we'll do a larger WTI segment.
No, we don't have to.
Maybe we'll do that tomorrow or Wednesday.
Wednesday will be my last day for the week.
I'm not quitting or anything, but we'll see how it goes.
So yeah
No, go ahead
We'll talk about it later
What do you want to talk about?
I was going to ask if you're going to be
Using a Meridian putter
Yeah
Wait tomorrow's your last day you said

You know
When you go on like a golf trip or something
It's good to have like your meals planned out
And it's really good to have
Factor meals on board
Oh man
They're back
You know when like hunger hits you
you're just exhausted.
And I'm one of those people.
And I think you're the same way.
You start to get a little hungry and you start looking around and you're like,
I don't have anything.
What's going on?
You start to get a little mad.
Personality changes a little bit.
Hangary.
That blood sugar drops.
That hanger sets in.
Champagne.

If you thought we've upped our game, if you thought we looked a little bit, I don't know.
A little bit more elite, a little bit classier.
I think Dillon can tell you why.
Yeah, I brought a gift in for the office today.
And it is right here.
It is this JBL Flip 5 Bluetooth speaker.
Really, it's a vibes play.
And we come in here and then I operate better.
I podcast better when I'm a little bit, you know, in a better mood, I think.
I think that goes for everybody, right?
And that's what this does for me.
All right.
So I brought it in.
By the way, I walk in and I had the bullet.
bought had it was brand new in the box he said i got this for the office at brady for some reason
and i guess he's not doing one who thought this he goes how did you get it like i was like what
can you can't he goes he said did you win it like what what do you mean did i win it and and here's the
thing dave wasn't in the office at this point and brett just hopped on with dillan being like i
like he was like no i bought it and like brett was like how ridiculous randy and then will goes
Randy, I was thinking the same thing.
Why would you think that I won it?
I asked like, what, did you win it at like a raffle at a barbecue or something?
And I think Dave is on the same page with me.
It's because-
Well, I walked in.
Yeah, okay, you go ahead.
I walked in and you showed me to go turn around, check it out.
I got that for the office.
What did I say?
I think you're just like, oh, okay.
I thought you acquired.
I thought you won it.
Not because buying a Bluetooth speaker is not out of the question.
It's like something a lot of people have done famously.
Yeah.
But it just seemed pretty available.
It was more like, why do we have?
I was like, all right, yeah, cool.
I think it would have was if I go through my process and Dave and I kind of the same page
here was that we had not been talking about getting a Bluetooth speaker for the office.
It just seemed like it was a random thing to have.
And then when you said I got it, it was like it gave off the vibe of I've acquired a new
one that I don't personally need.
That's not so I'm going to donate it to this.
It seemed like church raffle or something.
And like you got it and you're like, well, I don't really, I don't need to have three of these in my house or whatever.
So I'll just bring it to the office.
You've been known to bring things to the office.
I just Amazon did it.
Yeah.
I wish if I wanted a barbecue raffle, that would have been so sick.
Why didn't you just tell me?
I have a lot in my house.
Well, those are years.
I don't know.
They're not expensive, you know.
Oh, wow.
Let me let me let me go here.
I put it on the company car, by the way.
Dang, dude.
it on the company. What did that cost you? Us. It was like 70 something bucks.
Oh. Dude, I have like, I have, I have one of these. You should have brought one other one. I didn't
know. I didn't know. I didn't know you have been champing for one. Oh, I've been champion.
Dude, it's a game changer. How many, wait, what changes the game? Why are you sitting on so many
BTSs at home? I think we all know why. Generational wealth. I don't like to talk about my
finances publicly, but yeah, really knows. It looks like it's important to have a diverse portfolio.
Maybe you have some cryptocurrency.
Maybe you've got precious metals.
Maybe you are a commodities guy.
Stock market.
Here's how this is going to work.
All right.
We know how they work.
Well, here's how the process of operating the BTS is going to work.
If you want access to the BTS, you have to submit an application to me.
Give me like a quick rundown of what you plan on playing, like what the playlist is going to look like.
And I will either approve it or deny it.
I'll never do that.
Okay.
You're going to have to.
you just created a watch media playlist on Spotify?
We could do that.
You could even get the folks at home to...
But am I going to have all of you guys just add like...
Like, I can't have Brett.
Can't have Brett do it?
You know?
I think Brett does a good job.
I'm going to join the jam session.
Every once a month, he'll have like a day you come in and it's a little bit slow and you're
like, all right, what's going on?
If y'all put pop punk on here, it's kind of tank my shit before every episode.
I feel like if we let you do it, it's going to get old real quick.
That 90s...
Because you're at no offense.
You're pretty limited.
You're Mr. Limited.
I don't think I'm Mr. Limited.
Oh, yeah, you're Mr. Limited.
Your musical, your musical taste.
We were bobbing this morning.
Rainy got a little dance off.
I'll say, I enjoyed the Bluetooth speaker.
I enjoyed the music that we were playing this morning.
I'm just going to join the jam session and just completely not,
and just cut through the red tape,
and you're just going to have no idea how to kick me off the jam session.
Look, just bring, bring heat.
That's all I'm asking.
But what, I, bring the heat.
I just feel like we have, we have a lot of,
Brett does the music typically.
I know he doesn't do it in the studio.
Brett plays from his laptop out in the bullpen,
and sometimes it's fine.
Sometimes it stinks.
Sometimes it makes me just want to go home.
Think about shit.
I'm kind of with Dylan on this one.
I don't know if I've ever wanted to go home.
Brett's too trusting of,
okay,
I don't actually want it.
Brett will find out of a playlist
and he'll just hit play,
and he won't ever skip.
He doesn't curate.
He just goes Spotify,
I've got a larger skip session brewing.
Maybe I could, I feel like we're we're so,
our brains are so spoiled and so need immediate returns
that we become such a skip culture when it comes to playlist
that we expect only the good and it's like we can't just deal with a mid-song.
And I feel like our thirst for skipping immediately, like,
at the gym play, it's like, oh, got to pull my fun.
But when a better song is just a, I know, but it's like, why not?
I think it devalues.
When all you listen to is bangers, you don't have everything is.
So you think you don't have, you like lose bangers.
You got to live with the mids in order to appreciate the bangers.
Correct.
I do think.
It's something I've thought about because I caught myself on my Spotify at the gym being like,
listening to songs and being like, oh, fuck, I don't want to listen to it to Baby.
Or what, you know, pull it out.
Yeah.
And then I'm like, damn, dude, like, how about just, not every song.
I'm not, I don't mean that for this.
I'm just saying, that's a larger thought I've had.
Because my son, he currently on road trips, as a, he has a lot of requests for certain songs.
And then we'll have like the, oh, the bluey soundtrack or whatever it is.
And he's like, oh, can you go to the next one?
Or dad, can you play that one again?
You play that one.
I don't want to hear that one.
I'm like, hey, man, just let it run.
And it'll let you appreciate those other ones a little bit more.
And that's Dave's soapbox.
All right.
I will start a washed vibes only playlist.
Good vibes songs only in the playlist, all right?
No James Blunt, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
I'll believe when I see it or hear it.
No, uh, some of those shit bands that you guys sometimes play.
Bangers only.
Man, vibes only.
I just feel like you're not in a position to call them shit bands.
Mm-hmm.
Why?
Mm-hmm.
Because I just,
I just feel like
the James Blunt incident of
2017. I listened to one James Blunt song
like 12 years ago. You listen to it really loudly though. Let it go. I can't.
Honestly like it's one of the few times you've given me the hick.
Yeah, I will request not to put your favorite artist. I haven't listened to James Blunt.
He's calling you on 10 years.
Tecashi 6-9 or whatever that really...
You were really into him.
I wasn't really into him.
He really liked. He had a song I liked and I played it. It's not a big,
deal.
Takashi 6-9. That guy's fucking weird.
All right.
This is going to be good for the office, Dave.
Yeah. Yeah?
You need to get more excited about it.
I just don't think it's a game chance.
I think there's just, like, other things we could do to better the company.
I feel like I'm podcasting at a higher level than I would have if we didn't have
have music going.
It was because my dancing.
My Crip walking.
I can't have that.
Despite his dancing, we still got, you know.
You've set white people back.
quite a few years with that he was cripp walking what he talked about walking i think i was put us ahead no i
just you're lucky dylan old man the story he did you really did boomer it i don't know what happened
it actually turned out i don't know what happened either turned out better dill was filming me for 30 40
seconds it was actually only two seconds and then i ended up taking two two second videos of randy dancing
one of them was me putting my phone down he was like it was just the coffee table but the first one was
is what you see.
Shrutting that ass.
Yeah.
Go check out the Instagram story at Circling BackPod.
I'm maybe making it into a gift for future use.
People can be like, hey, look at this fun guy dancing.
Look at this fun guy dancing.
I bet he likes Pizza Hut.
Ooh, I'm not a mushrooms on pizza guy anymore, actually.
Now that you mentioned.
Ha, ha, fun guy dancing.
I like that.
Fuck mushrooms.
You don't like mushrooms?
Dude, I don't know.
I kind of like the soup, the cream of some fungi.
What are you doing, dog?

Well, guys, the footie was just incredible.
Incredible footie.
It really was, man.
this in the bullpen earlier. You know, I've, I've gone on record many times. I'm not much of a soccer
guy. It was so much fun. It's winning me over. Like it is. This is, I mean, part of it's probably
because it's occurring in the United States and Mexico and Canada, of course. But I don't know.
It's just, it's just really exciting. It also doesn't help that, or it doesn't hurt that, you know,
our men's team is doing quite well. Well, and you famously have called this one of the worst time,
worst times of the year for sports.
So you got this to fill the void.
I'm glad you haven't taken to Twitter
to do the overused.
Hey, look, I'm not a big soccer guy,
but I got to say, this is pretty good.
I feel like I'm seeing that everywhere.
Yeah.
Like we, yeah.
Yeah, we know.
I think that, but I didn't take it to Twitter.
It's been, it's been a blast to watch, man.
Me?
Like, I've been to awesome FC games,
and it's like there's no scoring.
And it's just like, man, I can't really get,
I can't get up for it very much.
There's been a lot of scoring, though,
and it's been like, I told Will,
the stars are playing like stars.
All the stars are here.
Like, really, I mean, all the, all the, the badass.
Harry Kane.
Harry Kane and Messi, Holland.
They're playing, they're playing lights out,
and it's been so much fun to watch.
Another thing I like about soccer is that the stars of the game,
they're treated like these godlike figures almost.
Like, they're,
there's so, I don't know, there's so much, I don't know.
Or I don't know the word looking for it, but it's like these guys are just, they've got a lot of cachet, you know.
They're treated like godlike figures.
Yeah.
I think that's cool.
Yeah.
I mean, they're, you know, they're praised and they've got wealth and big followers and very likely owned Bluetooth speakers.
They probably do, yeah.
They don't have to win it from a raffle even.
Yeah, they probably just.
church barbecue. By the way, at ECHO last night, okay. The waitress told Chelsea, and Chelsea has
gotten this many times before that, that she looks like Georgina, is it Rodriguez?
Which is Messy's girlfriend. Yeah, Georgina Rodriguez. Pull her up, Randy. She's gotten this,
like, since I've known her, like five times in public. I want to know how Randy spelled
Georgina. Georgina Rodriguez. Good job. Do you see it?
Yeah, a little bit.
Wait, who is she with?
Messi or Ronaldo?
Ronaldo.
That's Ronaldo's gal.
I don't know if they're married or not.
I think they're just partners.
Wow.
Well, you and Harry Kane have a lot in common.
Yeah.
What the hell, man?
Park said that Harry Kane and I have the same hairline.
I was like, oh, okay, okay.
Randy's got a little Harry Kane to him.
He does, actually.
He's got the same pushback, not a slickback, but the pushback.
Oh yeah, and that one for sure.
Yeah, a lot in this one.
Anyway.
Did Chelsea know who she was?
Yes, because she's been told this many times before.
That's how she knows.
Well, how about that?
Okay.
So we had yesterday the early game was Norway, Brazil.
We got to talk about Erling Holland.
So I've adopted Norway as my secondary team, other side of the,
the bracket, I guess.
Victor Hovland, of course.
And Norway, look, they're fans.
They've won me over there.
They seem to be up there in the fun fan category.
They've got the unique thing with the rowing.
The Viking rowing thing is badass.
And then, yeah, Holland, who I was kind of a, I was, I was aware of his aura from Will.
He plays on the other club from Manchester.
So Will's like, you know, like, it got to hand it to him.
Got to tip your cap to this guy.
But yes, he is a thorn in the side of that other team.
But watching him...
Doug, I got a big man crush.
Watching him, it's like, oh, like, I get it.
And, like, his game actually is exactly what people say.
Like, he doesn't get a ton of touches.
But when he does touch it, it's like he does the most with it.
Yeah.
And he's so big when there's a ball, a thrown up, kicked up, probably not thrown up.
It's like a 50-50 ball.
He just bodies dudes without even, like, trying.
He's just big.
That header, he stepped in front of that other dude
and just took it from him.
And like, dude, anybody going up,
they typically hit the ground
and it's incredible.
And yeah, he was sick.
He's my current favorite soccer player in the world.
He's so much fun.
Dude, he's just a big goofy.
He's so weird looking that he's somehow hot.
It's weird.
I don't know.
He looks like a Viking.
That's part of it.
He's got the long, blonde hair.
He just looks cool as hell.
And he's goofy.
He is goofy on social media,
which I appreciate.
about him. He looks like he's going to marry his niece.
Because of Targaryens.
Yeah, he does look like a Targary.
A rogue prince, perhaps.
He's badass, man.
He's fond.
Yeah, you can't trust the word of a rogue prince.
So they took out Brazil.
Little fucking Namar got a cheap P.K. goal there.
And for some reason, in the 99th minute when they were, that put them down by one.
By the way, like, starts talking shit.
Let that game go a little bit long, too, like to where Brazil's getting, I was like, oh, no.
So, Namar, I know I'm supposed to respect Namar and like, you know, you do have to hand it to him, but what are you doing?
I don't know much about this guy other than the fact that he's really good at soccer and he's kind of past his prime.
But from what I'm seeing on Twitter, doesn't seem like a stand-up guy according to what people say about him.
I don't know.
Married to Mia Hamm.
He's married to Mia Ham?
Namar, Garcia, Parra.
Okay.
I was like, what?
Sport athlete.
Got to be one of the best.
Name I.
Name my.
Yeah, what do you do?
Don't fucking chirp the guy.
Your career's over.
Great career.
But like, come on, man.
I don't know what the backstory is there.
I will say, I got to praise our friends.
I guess it was Ian Dark and was it,
was it Landon Donovan doing that game?
I can't remember.
But they really paint up,
they really help like the cash,
the people like us,
when it's like, you know, there's a player.
His club is Real Madrid.
There's a player.
He's for Bayern Munich, whatever.
And then he'll be like, oh, what's the guy?
Was the guy in Daniela or was it Gabriella?
Whatever, Daniela.
I don't know.
And Holland, they don't like each other.
There's no love loss there.
They'll show you too.
You'll see it when they play.
And so now I'm like, oh, well, there's a subplot.
And I'm watching it.
And I'm watching Holland body this dude, the whole game.
It was so sick.
There was a point in the game last night, the England, Mexico game,
where England had to play, like, really good defense.
They're down a guy.
And one of the guys on the broadcast said, this is like the Super Bowl on the, on the, you know,
goal lines, go line stand on the in the Super Bowl.
And I was just like, that's funny that he's just trying to, like, help Americans understand what's happening.
It was really well, well, I was thinking, I was like, that, that's the calm.
Yeah.
The other guy, the guy that was doing color commentary on that, I thought it was a little interesting, and I'm sure a lot of guys would say this, but they had him on the pre-show, and he played soccer, and I don't know his story, sorry.
But he was like, had this look in his eye as if he was like sad, and he said he's like, being here in the Azteca and like this, what this game is going to be in this environment, this level of the world.
up. He's like, it's the first time I've ever wanted to lay some back up and go play again.
And like, you were seeing him say this. You could hear it in his voice that he was like sad.
He wasn't out there. And it was like, you know, you see that sometimes like guys, like,
man, I'd love to be out there, but like it looked like it was like killing him that he could
not go play this game. Absolute scenes at the Azteca last night. It was, that's, first of all,
it's a badass stadium in a badass environment. You got to like the mountain that you can't
see it from inside the stadium, but like the mountain backdrop. Anyway, it was in Mexico.
obviously Mexico is playing, so the crowd was majority, you know, people from Mexico.
And it was just an unbelievable environment.
So much fun.
It was etcho in Mexico.
It was, yeah.
Some might say.
Yeah.
A lot of beer getting sprayed.
Yeah.
And throwing on Harry Kane.
Each game seems like it's more fun than the last one.
And the Norway-Bazil game was a lot of fun, but Mexico, England was maybe even more fun.
It was wild.
Yeah, that was, anytime you get.
down a man you don't want to get down a man in the Azteca no and then uh 90 minutes hits and they
throw 11 minutes up there and you're like Jesus that is such an eternity yeah was a lot of
stoppage in the second half um so much fun dude boy that team team Mexico get if you if you if
they're if you're hurt whether you're actually hurt or not they're going to get in your face and
call you a bitch yeah dude until until bellingham scored those
two goals like pretty close together.
It felt like Mexico was in complete control until that happened.
It was a wild,
a wild shift.
England,
England made the most of their opportunities.
And their goalkeeper was awesome.
Dude,
it's like,
that would be my move.
If I was a goalkeeper,
I would never catch the ball.
I'm just going to run out and just throw a little right cross.
I'm punching the fuck out of the ball.
Well,
it feels like the last 30 minutes of the game,
Mexico,
they just kept doing like the big high loopy crossers in the traffic.
And that,
that dude was like having none of it.
You just punched everything out.
They were, they seemed to be outsized by the, uh, the English team.
And it makes, uh, you know, putting those home a little bit more difficult.
Uh, we didn't even talk about Balagoon.
I know.
He's a, Balak back.
Yeah.
Balagan, I think, I don't know.
What are you doing, Dave?
What is it?
Oh, what?
So big, big news.
Yeah.
The red card.
It's a visual show.
The red card has been.
reversed. I know the proper term for it, but he's playing tonight unless there's a last
minute appeal. There's the appeal. The ability to appeal last I saw was granted. So Belgium,
they're lawyered up as well. Trump is going to appeal. He pardoned him. Trump is involved here,
man. So FIFA, I don't I don't know the ins and outs of the, uh, the, uh, the reputation they
have of being a corrupt organization, but I know that they're a pretty corrupt work.
One of the guys like talking shit being like this is a bad thing is like the old FIFA
commissioner, I guess, or president of FIFA who was like himself found to have some corruption
stuff. Oh, really? Yeah. And people are like, dude, what do you? What? Like, yeah, I know that I know
that they, they take bribes like crazy. And that's the reason that the last World Cup was in
Qatar, I don't know how you say it. I'm sure. Because they just got a bunch of money to have it
there. Yeah, it's, it's, it smells like corruption here.
especially since Trump was involved.
It helps it by most accounts.
I haven't seen a really good argument
that the red card was a valid red card.
No one has really presented like,
here's why this was a red,
this should have been a red card.
Like most people are pretty on board with it being egregious.
Yeah, I've seen clips of like, you know,
people come out being like,
this is ridiculous that they overturn it.
And then all the comments are like,
it shouldn't have been a red card.
Like no one is supporting the people that are outraged about it.
I see why people are like upset they got overturned.
Sure.
Every fan, it's like,
Well, it just, it does look like a special favor was granted.
And that's probably, I just, I hope it's not like a distraction.
The boys.
You think some money changed hands there?
Or is it just a phone call by the Orange Man?
We'll see, we'll see what that dude, the, uh, FIFA commissioner or whatever.
Uh, we'll see where he's at in five years.
If he's like, uh, at the World Bank or something.
Nutlick was a part of the conversation apparently.
Who?
Howard Nutlick.
Ooh, you call him Nutlick.
Why do you call him Nutlick?
It's not his name.
What's his last name?
It's Lutnik with a...
Oh, Lutnik.
Okay, I found that wrong the whole time.
Nutlick.
I thought you were doing a joke.
No, I think he knows his name wasn't Nuttl.
No one's named Nuttlick.
I'm doing a joke, Randy.
It's a joke.
On a comedy podcast?
Believe it or not.
Have a big sip of your beverage.
Yeah.
Hey, and tell him Dave sent you.
Let me take a hydration break.
Ready?
There comes.
He's going to data center.
Extreme player reacting to a tough play in slow-mo with no audio.
Holland does it all the time.
Well, the last couple of minutes of that Mexico game
when that guy was very seriously injured on the in line there.
He just was there.
I kept waiting for him to get up,
because that's what soccer players do.
They just kind of hit the ground and roll around,
like they got sniped, but this dude was actually injured.
I think he was, like, waiting for them to go review it
or thinking he could like snag a red card or something,
get a free kick or I don't know if that happened in the box or not.
And like he waited and then he kind of realized like,
oh, it's not happening.
And then that corner happened.
And the ball like,
I mean,
like the corner happened like right by him.
He's like right there.
And I was like,
is that like a,
those blankets or is that still that guy?
Soccer's interesting.
It's like,
he realized he waited too long.
He was all right.
All right,
well,
I've already committed.
I can't get up now.
So I'm just here now.
I think he really like badly turned his ankle.
Will said he did.
but like it's funny it's it's funny that he didn't you didn't see him like try to crawl off
it's like you think he'd get on his butt and like scoot back to get a look because he was he wasn't
on the field to play but like he's in a spot where like you know something could go down right by him
is soccer the only sport where a guy who's he gets like seriously injured hits the deck and they
don't like stop the game basketball though let it basketball sometimes you see him
until until it changes possessions you'll see yeah you'll see like you realize the guy's hurt
and like a guy will call time out or like commit a foul to like get a stoppage.
Last night his own team was, they had a corner kick and meanwhile he's just sitting like sitting there.
This is in stoppage time.
Yeah.
It's like, dude, we can't fuck around.
Yeah, we don't have time to like help this guy up and make sure he's okay.
We got to, we got to get a goal.
It was interesting.
Yeah.
I'm learning about soccer.
All right.
It's been fun, man.
Yeah, I don't.
We got to go.
We got to look, these cry babies from Belgium.
We got to stop him out tonight.
Got to stomp them out.
I don't want any, I don't want to leave any question about it.
I want to see us go out there, play aggressive, Pochitino, have these guys on the,
on the attack from the get-go.
That's his style.
Everybody knows that.
I know that.
Let's go up there.
Let's, let's do a 2-0.
Let's go 3-1.
Let's do something like with authority.
Okay?
I want to see.
Go do that.
Go do this.
Val, I'm going to put one in the net, though.
I'd love to.
I want him to go run the goal score play.
Yeah.
That's what I think.
That's your favorite play in soccer.
I love it.
Do his little LeBron celebration.
Yes.
That second haul on goal between the legs.
It's nasty.
It was fucking so good.
They give him way too much space.
You can't give him space.
No.
Get up on his ass.
That's the thing you get up on his ass.
Next thing you know, you're on the ground.
That's true.
You're fucking dicks in the dirt.
By the way, I didn't know how physical soccer was until watching this World Cup.
You really watch, and there's a lot of it.
a lot more grabbing.
Dude, a lot.
Yeah.
You kind of get why they,
because when you're watching it from,
I feel like you're watching the all 22, right?
You see like guys fall,
like just when somebody approaches,
but like upon closer review,
like,
there is a lot of,
drag down and body and foot stuff.
You're into that.
You sure am.
Hold on,
Rainey's taking his girlfriend.
No,
no,
I'm getting maybe some videos prepared
for the next segment.
Oh, all right.
Well,
no, I apologize.
does.
Doing my freaking job.
Why don't I just,
why don't I just produce?
Oh,
lastly,
Jordan Henderson for England after the game,
was hopping over a barricade and fell down and absolutely snapped his arm.
Yeah,
he's tough.
Will said he probably shouldn't have been on the team anyway.
Yeah,
I don't think he gets a lot of playing time.
I can't speak to the merits of him,
but still,
that sucks.
We're not playing the video because it might upset people if you're,
if he's a bit squeamish,
but it's,
shewish.
It's pretty terrible.
Tough scene.
So now we got Norway, England.
That's gonna be a fun one, huh?
I'd love to, if you really wanted to do a Vives play,
you would have bought a drum.
And that's how he would have started every pod.
I did dance in a drum circle after the fireworks in Austin.
What?
There was some people with some bongos, and they're going,
and then people, and they had tiki torches around.
And people were like...
How many?
They weren't in a Hawaiian shirts.
Crisis actors?
And yeah, they were, they were doing a little drum circle thing.
And if everyone was dancing, I want to go and want to dance.
All right.
I love that random edition.
Randy was like, oh, by the way, I did a little drum circle dancing myself.
You talked about a drum.
I was like, you know what?
Bang.
It goes, do, do.
Oh, God, that's scary.
Sick, dude.
Makes me want to go read a history book.
Go read a history book.
I will.
But before I do, I'll probably throw on my readers, my Warby Parker readers.
Oh, yes.
Dylan, I notice you got some Warby Parker's on.
Those are transition lenses.
These are the bremers.
That's the name of the frame.
Yes, they are transition lenses as well as blue light blockers.
And they become just a part of my look now.
I love them.
They're very comfortable as well.
You know what else?
You can finally wear performance sunglasses,
thanks to Warby Parker without looking like you're competing in the Olympics.
That is a problem.
Yeah.
Their sunglasses look like stylish sunglasses you'd wear every day,
but they're not flying off the second you break into a jog.
That's nice.
I've had glasses like that.
They add a discrete performance upgrades that matter,
a no-slip nose pad, a wraparound design that gives you expanded field of vision,
and flexible lightweight nylon for all-day comfort that actually holds up when you're moving.
And they've got contrast-enhancing lenses for sharper vision and reduced distortion when moving.
It blocks 100% of UVA and UVB rays,
advanced polarization to reduce horizontal glare and it's scratch-resistant,
Yeah, what's the frame you got the Bremers?
The Bremers.
So I got the same frame, but mine are just sunglasses.
And they're awesome.
Facts.
They also have 300 retail stores across the United States.
It's nice knowing you have that in-person option if you ever want it.
Check out Warby Parker.
They've got everything you need for half of your eyes, prescription glasses, contacts,
all nine eye exams, all in one place.
It makes everything so much easier.
You can go do the virtual try-on with your camera.
It's really easy.
I wear it that's made to move with you right now.

I left this off my weekend and fun.
I was just locked in.

All to start.
No, I wasn't there.
Everybody else was there.
Dean Blandino was there.
The guest list here.
Old Dean.
old dean did love a wedding it just seems like they just they just anyone who has an
instagram following above like two million just got an invite to this wedding yeah everyone

well they're former teammate of trappes kelsey i'm just going through yeah oh uh oh do you know
Kushner was there was he Joshua Kushner I don't know who I don't know that is either he was

was a who's who of NFL royalty of course Dean Blendino was like did they are they friends with
all these people or they just get invited to make it like this big celebrity get together
because that's what it seems like to me does he look a little bit I mean trav
Travis probably got a lot of friends from the NFL.
You cross past, he goes to a lot of pro bowls.
A lot of non-NFL people there, though, too.
Selena Gomez.
Oh, you know the chain smokers rolled through.
The chain smokers did come through.
See, what's the connection there?
I don't know.
Maybe they just wanted sick vibes.
The chain smokers are kind of like the Bluetooth speaker of the wedding.
Okay.
They're the Bluetooth speaker of the music.
Did they perform?
No, I'm sure.
That would be a little bit unbecoming.
the chain smokers.
Oh, that's kind of sick.
I'm going to go see him at ACL.
Adam Scott,
not the tanimal,
not a green jacket winner.
Adam Scott.
And Paul Rudd.
From severance and party.
Partridge and Rack.
And of course.
Party down?
Yeah, party down.
Step brothers.
D. Man.
Yeah.
It's a big fish.
It's a trophy.
One of the best comedic scenes
of all time.
Andy Reed,
almost certainly with a clip on
bow tie. Love that.
Where are you seeing all this stuff?
People magazine.
People.
Was Kane Chesney there?
I'm trying to look up to see if you were in there.
No, but I didn't know, I don't know,
but Brad Paisley was.
Ashanti and Nellie, there were a couple.
I met Ashanti famously.
Honestly, one of my favorite celebrity interactions
because I high school, just,
I love, I like that whole.
Sheets of great songs.
Yeah.
Got a photo with me and Connor.
That's cute.
I had a big crush on Ashanti back in the day.
It's a big moment for you.
Yeah.
Of course, Ashley, Ashley Avignone.
Oh, yeah.
Of course, the Mayfields and, of course, B. B. Baudubi and Jake Erland.
Beckettilly.
Benson Boone Boone.
You guessed it, Bowen Yang.
Sorry, okay, I'm done.
Do we have, like, images yet from what the inside look like?
No, I don't think you're going to see any.
I want to see it.
It is interesting.
It's like, man, they just really did.
just kind of throw out.
It's like, you know, there's a...
Did they collect phones?
During fall, yes, I think they did.
Okay.
During fall rush, there was always one fraternity who would like...
So Texas State wasn't the biggest Greek scene, even though it was a big school.
But there would always be, you know, most pledge classes on big fraternies would be like
maybe 30, 40 guys.
And there'd always be one, like, they gave out like 80 bit.
It's like, oh, they just threw out the big canon.
Just didn't let everybody in.
It didn't matter.
And just wanted numbers, dude.
Yeah.
That's okay.
You got to get your numbers.
I don't know.
I don't know what happened here.
But Will had a funny take on like if you weren't invited and you lived in New York City and you were somewhat notable.
You should just go walk around town in your tucks and people like, do moire or something.
Oh my God.
Dylan Shivery spotted probably on his way to the Swift Kelsey wedding.
When in reality, you were just walking around.
Like, you know who they probably spotted was the original rowdy gentleman.
Remember he used to walk around in a tux?
Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
I do remember those videos.
You think a lot of people understand that reference?
No, very few.
Baker Mayfield?
He was there.
Wow.
Yeah, you know, I was there too.
I was there with Brittany.
He was?
Yeah, of course, man.
It was good.
It was a chain smokers.
They had to come through again.
You know, they done did it.
They're the best, man.
They done did?
Straight up goaded.
Yeah, man.
The chain smokers came through.
No, they had to, man.
They didn't play, man.
I had them on in my car.
Okay.
Enough.
Enough.
Chris Stapleton.
Yeah, I got to assume Kenny Chesney was there.
You can't assume Kenny Chesney was there.
The chicks were there.
The chicks were there?
I just, okay.
I got to assume Kenny was there.
He was heavily rumored.
Yeah, apparently he canceled two concerts at the Las Vegas sphere.
That's kind of interesting.
Well, they got a connection.
Oh, I died.
It's interesting to do that to your fans just to go to a wedding.
Mm-hmm.
So I'm just kidding.
I don't know.
I don't know.
This doesn't really affect my life.
I mean, I would have gone.
Hey,
I'm happy for them.
Wasn't that,
it wouldn't be that crazy
if one of us got invited.
Considering the number of imitations
that seemingly went out,
yeah.
We just got invited
to a wedding of people
we've never met.
Shout out Jamie and John, man.
Yeah,
it's interesting seeing all the, like,
NFL players,
like Greg Olson is like,
oh yeah.
Greg Olson's hat.
He wore a hat.
Yeah.
I don't know, man.
You can't wear a statement piece like that.
Love Greg.
You can't wear a statement piece like that at a wedding.
Yeah, especially when your third leg, Greg, you already have a statement piece.
It's too attention grabbing.
You can't do that.
If I was Trave looking out, I'd be like, oh, okay, Greg.
Okay.
Huh.
It's a good looking talk sale.
Former bear.
Thank you, Randy.
Well, fun times at the wedding.
Yeah, we probably aren't going to get to see what it look like.
That's unfortunate.
No.
Um, you got some ish on fire.
Not really ish.
I just wanted to point out.
So we did the fireworks.
We went and walked around the neighborhood and this particular part of Cyprus.
They go pretty hard.
They've got, there's like four or five different groups on like the block that clearly spent like what I estimated to be at least $5,000 on fireworks, given the level of firework they were doing for about two hours in a row.
Um.
And I'm on record as being.
like questioning like why fireworks haven't really evolved.
I know the drone shows a separate thing,
but like it's like, man,
we're kind of just doing the same thing.
When are we going to get something dope?
I got to say,
I saw some shit I'd never seen before.
I saw one like this,
anytime they bring the big tube out,
anytime you see the big tube,
you're like, well, this thing is going to do something.
That one?
There was one I saw.
And it, you set it down,
you light it,
and you're expecting it to shoot up and traditional firework.
This thing shot up.
It was almost silent.
It almost had like a moon raker on golden eye.
Everybody knows the moon raker.
Laser sound to it.
And it shot up and did like a like almost like a silent pop, which was kind of tight.
It was a stealth.
It was a very stealthy.
And there was another one I saw that when it shot up, there wasn't, instead of like,
whilst the shell was shooting up, it whistled.
Not even, no, more like a loud screech.
Yeah, sorry for your dogs.
Thanks.
Now, it didn't sound like screech.
Yeah, the first time I ever saw a heart one, back in the day, I was like, whoa, we're doing heart shapes or like, I saw a smiley face once.
I didn't know you can do that.
How do you even do that?
It's like a drone show, Randy.
All those people down there with little remote control.
Just, okay, who thought that they all had remotes?
Somebody clearly was way off on this.
No, I was just joking because they clearly don't.
Yeah.
Oh, I was hoping somebody had that case.
Someone has that, someone had that take.
It wouldn't shock me if it was one person?
I mean, there's got to be one person in control, right?
Yeah, I think it's just programmed.
Yeah, because they all return at the same time
and they all land together.
I've seen the video of that.
It's kind of cool.
We were doing jokes on the comedy podcast.
You see this thing?
Oh, here we go.
This is going to be his new thing, Dave.
Get used to it.
Yep.
We also do bits sometimes.
I saw some like really,
some really bright ones that were like coming down.
I love the ones that are like little,
they look like little bees flying around
when they pop if you've seen those.
Yeah, stop.
Sorry.
Dude, it was,
I was like, damn, okay.
The best five.
Damn, Jeffrey Tubin?
Damn, Gina.
Remember, dinner of that?
Yeah.
The best fireworks show I've ever seen in light in person was the Houston Run Fair.
Every time they do an awesome fire.
It's like a grand finale the whole time.
That being said, so many times we were like, no one's going to watch your firework videos
on your show.
Every New York in Washington, D.C. one I saw on my feed.
I was watching.
Have you seen them?
No.
They were sick.
I deleted anybody who posted fireworks because of the scum of the earth.
Well, here.
Well, I'm going to show you some.
Who is this?
I don't know.
These are just random ones that I got sent.
Like I got showed.
So like this is just someone on the train and New York just did it all from the bridge.
That's AI.
That's AI.
Obviously AI actually.
I don't see Iverson anywhere in there.
But they were just like launching them all from the.
Comedy.
Okay.
Okay.
Comedy.
I guess I've shot myself in the foot with this, this bit.
Yeah, would you shoot it with a Roman candle?
That's good.
That's dope, dude.
That is a good.
I'd watch that video.
But yeah.
I do like people get mad about the fireworks on the stories.
That's great.
The, uh, the, the, the 250 after Trump's 250 speech, uh, they set off like fireworks for like
two hours straight and it was, there was so many that it, like, you began to wonder,
like, did something go wrong?
Here's, here's some from Washington, D.C.
It's just like.
It looked like somebody set fire to like a big, like a fireworks.
That's fucking wild, man.
Stand.
So, shout's to New York and Washington, D.C.
it looked like great fireworks shows now that's what i call fireworks some of the drone shows they
have little like fireworks that will uh it's like a sparkler so they'll actually like rain down
fireworks show stuff i'll see if i can find one it's pretty cool pretty cool yeah we'll name five
fireworks that's wild um yeah right power rocket firecracker snake uh no one's doing snake pops
Chelsea loves your dad.
Your dad comes home.
He's like,
what the hell's all over the driveway?
Chelsea loves my driveway stained.
And you're like,
ah,
I was doing snakes.
We did some snakes.
I hope it cleans off.
It doesn't.
Go get the power washer from the garage.
Yeah,
here's one.
Like there's a drone show and then like some of the drones show.
And then like some of the drones actually have like sparklers on them.
So that like it looks like it's kind of like.
Somebody should do a drone show that says Coney 2012 or whatever.
Remember connie?
I remember Connie
Look how sick that is
Dude J-Bone was obsessed with Connie
He really was
Yeah, that's cool
So this is the one that was
Somewhere else in Texas
That was not Austin
Damn
But it was sick
It was very 3D
Shaking hands
Why those astronauts dapping up
So I mean
I think overall
Great Fourth of July
Yeah
The scenes man
Yeah
All right
Well, good show.
Man, good show, everybody.
This Bluetooth speakers are paying dividends.
That's what I'm saying, Don't.
Man, imagine what tomorrow's going to be like.
Can I say something?
Nope.
I'm surprised that was $70.
That seems a lot for that one.
Because that's like the one I have, and mine's like a decade old and it looks the exact same.
Dave, can I tell you something?
What's looked up on Amazon?
It's actually $79.95.
Why didn't you do it on Prime Day?
Because I thought about it yesterday.
Let's bring one in and then we'll return it.
Nah, I don't care.
I'm not giving you mine.
How are you going to return it to the barbecue raffle?
You were just, you're just shaming me for spending money unnecessarily.
You said, I'll go to Broadway.
No, no, no, I don't care.
$70.
But that does surprise me.
I feel like Bluetooth's had gotten, like, very cheap.
Well, I could have gotten one for $14.
I got the shitty Dunkin, no offense.
I want a thump in here.
I got a Dunkin one that I hang on my golf ads.
I've seen it.
I've seen it.
That one doesn't have the sub-wuffs.
All right, great stuff.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
