You're in your mid-30s. What do you still like? I had a great time in high school. Following your high school football team.

You didn't even play high school football. Something about your hometown, right? You're always 17 there. What were you guys? I learned that this weekend. Bulldogs? The Trojans. The Anderson Trojans.

Oh, man. Ironic. Yeah, we got lots of condom jokes thrown our way when we were competing in sporting events. Oh, we're going to bust through the Trojans. Oh, okay. You do it to yourself. I thought it was a men in skirts joke. I'm not doing it to myself.

It's a little high school punk. Oh. You thought they were going to ancient times. Yes, just jack dudes and leather skirts. Oh, yeah. Trojan horse. Did you all ever do that? No, no. Our mascot looked a lot like that though

okay depiction of the trojan man kj known to many as uh a quarter or one fourth same thing a lot of people don't know that of too much dip yeah noted sports podcast in the washed media network yeah if you're not listening to too much dip at this point i don't really know what you're doing with your day today's gonna be one you want to listen to because i feel like it's gonna be a sad one yeah it's gonna be sad it'll be sad but man with a touch of class more on tmd but just a shit weekend of sports not everywhere okay well where it counts kj who are you, by the way? Oh, geez.

Yeah, introduce yourself to the circle back, folks. Yeah, okay. We'll start here. I think I can shorten this down. Hi, I'm KJ Ellis. Find me on Twitter and Instagram at KJ Ellis. I'm on LinkedIn, guys. Is that cool?

I'm also on LinkedIn, I believe, with ones as the L's on both of them. Now, I've been doing podcasting for about four years. I did a retro nostalgia podcast called Partial Recall. Still kind of exists in some formats. And then I did a Texas history podcast called Our Texas. Some of you may have checked that out. I feel like we do good content over there. I've been listening to small to mid-sized podcasts made both here in this room

and elsewhere in this town probably since whenever you guys chicago meetup was october yeah 2000 18 17 18 18 yeah so you know definitely not i wouldn't say day one. That wouldn't be fair. I was an idiot. 17. Completely ignorant to the expanse of the Grand X network. Because I think Dave and I connected on Twitter about something. And then you just look them up and then you see the Grand X website. And you guys had this back and forth deal where it's just like, oh, here's the legal counsel. Blah, blah blah blah and he's in a suit i didn't hover over any of the pictures to realize that uh you know there was a

party in the back i guess and so i was like all right cool guy listens to the blowout network what i was doing at the time it's a big part of uh that are people from dallas sports talk world the ticket uh lo and behold it was actually the dave ruff uh who at that time did another podcast and then me i dove in i was like oh shit i'm an idiot i'm just like nice to meet you buddy and you know pat him on the head and really realized he was like a content machine you didn't know that i had a few thousand followers i that, but I figured they were all legalese. I mean, the only follower that I know of that list is also a JD of sorts. So, you know, unconfirmed what the rest are.

Who? I don't know. Sizzle Squad's own Zach. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Shout out, Zach. You know, it's funny. Brett's here. Hey, I thought you and Dave went back to high school.

And you used to stuff him in lockers. That's where I thought this began. KJ's younger than me. I mean, he still would have stuffed me in lockers, but he is younger than me. Significantly or no? I turned 34 36 hours ago. Well, I'm sorry. I wish you a happy birthday.

Happy birthday, KJ. Happy birthday. It happens, man. You tried to party with him. Somebody didn't party. That is very true. That is very a happy birthday. Happy birthday, KJ. Happy birthday. It happens, man. Tried to party with him. Somebody didn't party. That is very true. That is very true. Somebody in this room doesn't party.

I old manned it real big. We'll get to that, though. But yeah, that's who I am. Otherwise, just a chill-ass bro. Chill-ass bro. That's KJ. Wow, chill-ass bro. Went to SMU.

Yeah. I'll defend the ponies to the day I die. Good. Including on TMD. Listened to too much tip today. Did you defend the ponies to the day I die. Good. Including on TMD. Listened to too much tip today. Did you know the guys in this video? Oh, my gosh. No, he did not know the 19-year-old white watch wranglers.

I thought you went by the booze or something. I don't know them, but, boy, do I know them. Check out at D. Carter. That's a great way of putting it because, yeah, I think we were all thinking that. At D. Carter Ruff on Twitter and Snap for that matter, if you want to see the video we're referring to, it's somebody who lived next door to these SMU dudes, caught some candid footage of them celebrating their big win over ranked Memphis.

It could have been V's and Cox, and it could have been a real bad look. I wish it would have been. Some programming notes, Dylan. I'm ready. Follow at Circling Back Pod on Instagram. Leave a review. Please leave a five-star rating and give us something good. We'll get around to reading those as they come in.

Keep in mind, every Tuesday and every Friday we do Patreon episodes. Yeah. That's behind a paywall in some fashion. Full disclosure, we already recorded tomorrow's spooky season. Tomorrow's is the one. We recorded when Will was still in town, so he recorded tomorrow's spooky season. Tomorrow's is the one. We recorded when Will was still in town, so he will be on that episode. A really, really strong one. Really strong.

Visual. Extra spooky. We have visual. Oh, my gosh. We have effects on everything. Legit might be the creepiest, spookiest one we've done yet because we have actual photo evidence. Well, you'll have to see.

I don't want to spoil too much. Yeah, can you just stop? You might want to YouTube this one is all I'm saying. Wow. Oh, yeah. I'm going to post the photo on the paywall too. The video will be up, right, Randy? Yeah.

Vimeo. Thank you. Also, we do happy hour live on Wednesdays. Yeah. 7 p.m. CST. KJ, you've done a few of those. I've done a couple of those. If that voice sounds familiar, that's where you know KJ from, most likely.

Follow Circling Back Pod on Twitter for the theme this week, because we're getting back to a theme week. Is it going to be spooky? It's going to be spooky. I've been waiting for October to drop something spooky. Something like pumpkin spice or something like that? Dylan, why don't you just follow the Twitter? Yeah, you're really just spoiling everything.

Actually, I unfollowed over the weekend. Why'd you do that, dude? I'm over it. Just kidding. I'm over this ass over there. We do Twitch, too. Are you familiar with this? Oh, boy, am I.

Twitch.tv slash washedmedia. Is that really it? Mm-hmm. Twitch.tv slash washedmedia. Every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Not this Friday. We'll get to thatia. Every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Not this Friday. We'll get to that later. Every Tuesday and Thursday at 1215, we do Call of Duty.

I don't know if you guys have seen that. PGA. We do tournaments every now and then. We did one. Shout out to, what's the guy's name? Bosh? Chris? Not Chris.

His brother. It's his brother. Cool. Cooper. Yeah, that dude just blew everybody away. Tanner. And then link your Amazon Prime account to your Twitch account for a free monthly sub. It only took Dylan like seven days to figure out how to do that.

No, I haven't figured out how to do that, David. It literally will not do it. I'm over it. I make fun of Dylan. There's no way I could make that happen. I've tried five different times, and each time I get hung up somewhere. Watching media on Twitch is not getting my business, unfortunately. Hypothetically, for the people out there, let's say you couldn't link the accounts.

Just go ahead and sub. Yeah, you can do that. Yeah, you can straight up sub. Yeah. It's worth it. Sub for daddy. Rumors are saying eventually Among us will be played by some people in this room i don't know i don't know i don't support rumors uh i've been calling for it

since day one among us i don't it's for years now a lot of people like some people who don't have on my jobs necessarily they were like no we don't need to be doing this and me i'm saying no we definitely should be twitching among us it would be really fun and engaging for our audience. So I'm doing my best. Fighting an uphill battle here. Keep an eye out. Keep an eye out. Do the line.

What? It's my line. Is that yours? Yeah. Oh, geez. Hey, let's do some fun and easy banter. I thought that we just did it, but we're still, we can just continue on. Randy, if you don't mind

throwing up a little visual here for us. I don't know if you guys saw this, but I just wanted to talk real quick. I saw this right before we started recording. I did not. So as many of you are aware, we're not going to go too deep into this, but our president has been

infected with COVID-19, the global pandemic virus. And there's a gathering of supporters outside Walter Reed, which is where he is being hospitalized. And for some reason, Batman's there. And I just can't. This absolutely made my brain explode. Is he there just to beat COVID-19's ass? I don't know. What's he there for?

Does he have like a vaccine? Just look at the facial expression. He's very much in character. This is not a bit. He's there. He has the expensive Batman costume. This isn't like the one you get from the grocery store. Maybe that is like the actual real Batman. I didn't even consider that. Yeah, think about it. Could be a possibility.

It does have a Pattinson jawline. Who knows? I'm telling you. There's a new Batman movie coming out, isn't there? Is this an activation? This is guerrilla marketing. Put that down. Yes, this is a brand activation.

Oh, come on. Motherfucker. Although the Batman is the dude from Twilight, right? Yeah. It will be, yes. Old big-headed Robert Pattinson. Robert Pattinson. Who's your favorite Batman, Dylan?

Fucking potato head ass It's probably Christian Bale that's the answer I bet yours is actually George Clooney But his his Batman voice is really forced and bad Okay, yeah like that take but the fun better than affluent where they? Dude, you don't have to do that with your voice. I would say Keaton is going to get the throwaway vote from a lot of people because they want to be hipsters, but we all know if it ain't Clooney, it's got to be Val Kilmer for sure. Oh, yeah, Val Kilmer. Ben Affleck, people forget that he was Batman for a minute.

People didn't like it. Now we're getting the Twilight guy. Twilight guy. That's the vampire movie, right? Yes. Oh, don't act like you don't know. I don't. I mean, I do, but I confuse things like that.

All Team Edward ass over here. Okay. Yeah, you are Team Edward. I think that's one of the two. Who's the other dude? I don't know. I'm really hoping. Taylor Lautner.

What happened to him? Wasn't he in a movie that we had something to do with at Grand X? No. All right. He did another movie? I don't know. People realize that he's just a terrible actor and that he didn't get many roles after that. He could swing swords like Shinobi.

He was good with the post-ass. Yeah, he does all that wild-ass shit. He's really good with it. No. Shinobi? Much better at that than acting, it turns out. God. Hey, did you see our friend Carlos Norris is trending?

I did, yeah. Chuck Norris, that is, for those of you. I'm going to refer to him as Carlos from here on out. That's his real name, so you don't need a dead name, Chuck Norris. Do I need to know why he is trending? Or should I? This kind of links in with the the covet thing but apparently the some have taken to um the recycled chuck norris jokes

for and they're putting it like they're saying like covet doesn't defeat trump trump defeats covet yeah something here's the tweet that i think started it. Is it? From Representative Matt Gaetz. Noted. Another big head. President Trump won't have to recover from COVID. COVID will have to recover from President Trump. That's the one. Hashtag MAGA.

Okay. Okay. What's your favorite Chuck Norris joke? KJ, go ahead and start. All of them. There's so many of them. You just celebrate the entire catalog. I just enjoy all of the catalog. like the Old Testament and the New.

I like them both. Okay. Brett, go ahead. I like the one when Willie Nelson was wearing a shirt that said, Let the Russians play with themselves and had the Olympic circles with one removed. I thought that was funny. At what point did Chuck Norris enter that statement? Yeah, I thought Carlos wore that same shirt at some point.

Oh, did he? Yeah. Okay. I don't know. I hate all the Chuck Norris jokes because it's a ripoff of the Bill Braske skit from Saturday Night Live. Direct ripoff of Bill Braske. Are you going to come in here and act like you are familiar with that skit? Oh, I absolutely was.

I was a big Bill Braske fan back in the day. I could see that. Oh, I absolutely was. I was a big Bill Braske fan back in the day. I could see that. When you introduced to our audience that skews a little younger than us what Saturday Night Live is. Yeah, I don't know if you guys have seen it. No, they probably all watched it because apparently it was really good this week.

It was Will Ferrell and Alec Baldwin, and they had a few rotating guys in there. It was a mythical creature, a mythical salesperson. They were drinking scotch at the bar, talking about the best salesman in the office. His name was Bill Braske. And they would just rip off Chuck Norris-esque jokes about his lore. His prowess. And fall through a table.

And then fall through. Totally different. Funny skit. Did anybody watch Saturday Night Live this weekend? No. The Jim Carrey thing hit the TL, but I didn't really watch too much of it. I'm glad that you're doing this now because I don't want you to do it this weekend in fun. Recap.

Oh, yeah. Because it wasn't fun. By all accounts, it was a very poor episode. Similar to TikTok, I just wait for that to bubble up to my sphere of knowledge or awareness, which means once somebody reposts a skit to twitter that's when i'll that's how i get news i don't watch any news programs i just wait until someone like does like a screen grab and tweets it yeah fair enough unbiased did you watch was jim carrey's okay i support jim carrey i right is that can you say that like Like, I feel like I mean, like a proxy Biden vote, Dave.

Maybe. I guess it might be. I don't know. I support him in most of his ventures. I'm saying the only problematic thing with him is that he did have an ex-girlfriend who checked out of her own volition. And there was some rumors that he may have influenced that occurrence. Other than that, you know. Just took a turn. You know. Other than that, it's Jim Carrey. Other than that, smoking.

Do the tweet. Let's recap this weekend in fun. Ooh. You want to? Yeah. You want to recap it? Yeah. We played golf Friday.

I'll start. We played golf Friday. and it was so tight. Did you guys hit any kolache places on the way up? No. No. Man, I'll tell you what. We played the Cowboys Golf Club. Man.

Which is in Grapevine, Texas. Nice. I have never hit my driver so well in my life. And I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding. The best driving round I've ever had. I played like shit. Otherwise, couldn't hit an so well in my life. And I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding. The best driving round I've ever had. I played like shit. Otherwise, couldn't hit an iron to save my life.

Drive for show, this one. Couldn't chip, couldn't putt. But, my God, I left feeling good about myself. You pissed on him. Because of my driver. Oh, my God. Just pissing on it. Would you do it?

I didn't miss it. It was a little bit unnecessary. I didn't miss it a single one. I didn't stop pissing on the ball. Wow. Like, my worst drive was, like, 10 yards off the fairway. Come on. Yeah, me too.

You know what I'm saying? Dave, come on, man. Come on, man. Shout out to Klein and Ross for having us up. Yes. Shout out to Klein and Ross for having us up. Great food at that Cowboys golf course. I was going to say, if you had a chance to eat there, it is phenomenal.

We'll also hear old calls of Cowboys games while hitting the urinal in that clubhouse. Yeah, and they give you, in the golf carts on the GPS. Pretty obnoxious. They run before you tee off. As you pull up to the first tee box and there's a group teeing off, it just starts playing a video with very audible audio. And I think the Michael Irvin finished the fight quote is in there, like him screaming.

And they show different ads throughout the holes. Not only do they show ads up on the screen, but there's a loud beep that alerts you. It's a door chime. To get your attention. Like, hey, the next ad's coming up. It's really obnoxious. Oh, my.

A very Jerry Jones golf course. But they need the revenue. They've got to keep that place going. attention like hey the next ad's coming up it's really obnoxious oh my a very jerry jones golf course but they need the revenue they got to keep that place going i'm just the course is the most valuable franchise in sports inter like across the world by not having ads on your gps the greens were tough especially that to be the conditions were tough oh my gosh mainly the greens uh weather was great had a fantastic time is the the 12th hole obnoxiously decorated? I feel like there would be a Staubach thing. Oh. Oh.

Is he like, okay, I don't know. I don't know. I just figured it would be like 12 would have some significance to it. Each golf cart, instead of having numbers on them, just has names of iconic. We had the Jimmy Johnson cart. Iconic Cowboys throughout the years. Which I think is a step in the right direction for the franchise to acknowledge Jimmy's existence by having him on the cart. His sandwich chain is doing phenomenally.

Okay. So you doubted thinking that it was. Do we have a boo sound effect? Because I want to boo Brett. Even though it is spooky season, so it's fitting. Yeah. It was great. The first green, we didn't realize what we were getting into. What the heck? It is spooky season, so it's fitting. It was great.

The first green, we didn't realize what we were getting into. What the heck? Illegal pin placement, I'll go ahead and say it. USGA would not sign off on that pin placement. Do you remember how well it started out for me? I almost chipped that in for Eagle, and then I think I three-jacked it. Maybe I four-jacked that first green. I don't know, but everybody was just windshield-wipering.

It was bad. Things got worse for me, though. What is windshield wipering? Coming across the face? No, no, no. Isn't that when like... What is coming across the face? What is windshield wipering? What are you talking about?

Windshield... I don't know what you're... In golf? Maybe that's not what I was looking for. Is this a dance move? I thought that's like when you go to one side, then you go back the other. Okay.

So you keep going back and forth like a windshield wiper. Got it. Okay. That makes sense. Might be a yin-yang twing song. I don't know. Sounds like it. The rest of my weekend was just I hung out with Parks,

and I got him ready for his first day of kindergarten, which we will be discussing here in a little bit, I believe. That's a tease to a segment coming up. How about your weekend, bitch? Okay. It was good. It was good. It was good. Played golf with you guys.

It went really, really well. Didn't miss any fairways. Fantastic all around. Friday night. You missed one fairway, though. I did. I did. I did.

I missed it a little bit. Pushed it. To the right a little bit? To the right, yeah. How far right, though? Honestly, not that far, if you really think about it. Honestly, yeah, that's right anybody who plays a draw that's that miss is definitely in play um so uh come across yeah come on friday night so we've got a friend kj yeah our friend jake

he lives like five minutes from the course he does in grapevine texas grapevine is a cool town it's a great spot i don't know if it's a town i would let me think about this right after college i don't know if it's a town i'm moving to but like as you get into your late 20s 30s that's not a bad town at all and uh i met hey he and his wife at a brewery for some beers and i did the thing where you go from the golf course where you did have some beers. Not that many, but enough. Enough to like, you know, you're peeing a lot and all that. Go to the brewery, have a few craft beers,

don't eat dinner. And then next thing you know, you're in an Uber going back to your parents' house in Duncanville. Nice. Because you're not driving, you know, don't drink and drive. We don't do that. That is a, That's an Uber. It's like 25 miles or so.

Yeah, I haven't looked at the damage on that one. Shout out to my guy, my driver, because he just handed me the aux as soon as I got it. He's like, this is a long one. He just handed me the aux. So we listened to Kanye. Respect that. I feel like that's a lot of pressure, though. It is. It's too much.'s a lot of pressure, though. It is.

It's too much. He was on the phone, though. He was having a conversation as I'm just having a party for one in the backseat. That's when I'm putting on really poor podcasts, like murders that are my favorite. Oh, my favorite murder? I'm going to get a name drop, especially after i just called them bad i feel like they're doing pretty well they are doing very well and especially the woman who owns and lives in my house loves them so i always have to down it i should have just put on come town exactly just

seeing what could happen uh yeah then saturday had the uh my sister's family came over grilled some steaks at my parents place place. Had a good time. Had a good time. Grilling, having some bourbon. Lots of fun. Watched the football, the college football. Lost my ass. Good times.

What about you, Brett? I had one of the more low-key weekends I've had in a minute, which felt good. I hit the range four days in a row which felt really good how's the body feeling? no one's doing that body feels great are you taking adrenochrome? how are you recovering?

no, new genics new genics Frank, you did that presentation to be young Frank Hurt really sells it Frank Hurt the big Frank is what they call him

that's what they call Dylan but I did something that's so stupid I did something I've never done which is post a a video of my swing to my story oh man last night and it was actually from saturday and i decided to post it last night asking for for swing help and i got way way more feedback than expected probably a hundred people in my dms was a swing help or swing help? It was not swing help.

Can't get any swing advice. 99% of it was positive and helpful and realizing that I have a lot to work on. What was the meanest response? Your calves suck. Just that was it. Your calves suck. It's like your calves aren't that bad. Who was it?

Expose this person. No swing help. Let's dox this person. I don't want to dox him. I dox KJ on Twitch. Yeah, but in your defense, we've discussed it many times where I live. So it's no secret. I have no risk of being slightly off the fairway where I live.

So we're good. Why is it that when we post a picture or video to social media, it's just open season on just picking apart our appearance, our attire, everything? Because it's basically what we do on this podcast. Is it? It's not just us, though. It's like a guy thing. Yeah, it's a guy thing.

Guys just rip on each other. No, the ultimate is – Girls just get gassed up. If something gets posted in my group text and it's like one of my high school buddies like wants to show that he's like having a beer on like a tuesday at four o'clock takes a photo of it no one's focusing on the beer they're trying to find like something on the coffee table that's not they shouldn't be there and like zooming in on that and just responding with that screenshot no you know just completely hijacks what they're looking for. It's the age-old adage

right where girls will gas each other up on social media. You're an adage guy. Adage. Nobody's an adage guy. But in the group text, is that a...

Can you do that? I'll let you finish. I'll let you finish. Hey, do your thing, man. Adage. Go ahead. Girls will gas each other up on social media

and then in the group text They'll be like Do you see what she's wearing Like Oh yeah She sucks Guys do it to your face And then guys will do it to your face

And then send it to their buddy And be like This looks tight They're playing like cowboys Or something like that Yeah So Yeah

I get it But But girls Respond to other girls Like oh my gosh Why are you the hottest person In the world And it's like

She's really not that hot To her friends on the side you can say it Ritz touch those eyes that's a thing that outfit is from last season

like what is she doing yeah it happens like oh her middle part can you imagine can you imagine it could not be me so you just got to leave with

aside from the middle part everything here's a flame emoji yeah but i i do appreciate all the feedback like legitimate feedback people were writing me like what's the number one thing you got to work on going forward i i'm coming over the top dave i'm coming over the top stranger to that no i've said i play golf with you yeah yeah yeah and a lot of people are like you look like daily swing which is you do have a long you have a long very long you have um if i may sure you have baseball guys swing but baseball guy who's played enough golf to not have full baseball guy swing i think that's a perfect because you a lot of baseball guys bring it back real flat you don't you're very upright at the top, if that's the word.

Yeah. But it's good. I'm getting there. You make a good move on it. That's what kind of people are saying. They're like, there's enough to work with here. Like, we have something here. Was kind of the general baseline of it.

That's a generic thing to say to somebody, by the way. Oh, you put a good move on that one. What move did I put on it, youer good action you even what were you watching it in like slow speed i just took a swing at you know 105 miles an hour for me yeah the only video that's ever been posted of my swing is not very endearing for your boy i'll find it i'll dig it up and post it i have no shame what was it my golf game needs uh my uh golf game needs a lot of attention and let's post it on circling back or just post on tnd fall add too much dip podcast on instagram kj swing yeah yeah it's it's horrible but in my

defense it was in a simulator at like texas live and i'm definitely one of those people it's like you're drinking i'm not confident in my grip right now like this club could you know fly back and hit a kid in the head so right i was not letting it rip at all don't bring your kids to the bar how about that exactly kj is the only natural athlete here wait did you know guys know that kj played college football the man's wearing his baseball shoes right now. You know, I'm wearing a Lucas t-shirt. Shout out Skylar in Dallas.

I thought that was a Tyron Smith t-shirt. No. Fair. Tyron Smith's been getting a lot of play this morning around here. He should have just knee braces around the sevens, and then it could be a Tyron thing. Can you Postmates knee braces? This is a transition into the ad. I'd like to find out, Dave.

How about that? Postmates has made our lives so much easier here at the office because, especially on Mondays for me, and I think for a number of you guys, because we do circling back, take a little break, and then we go right into too much dip. On two-episode days, Postmates is our best friend. And I have Postmated i'll just give them a shout out little place called modern market like probably 25 times in the last

two months you might be eating a little bit too much modern market honestly that's a little thing i like about it is it's a market that's modern right postmates if you're like me you probably start thinking about what to eat for dinner while you're eating lunch i know i do i love food and that's why i love using them. Very convenient. They've got Postmates Pickup, which I've been using to order takeout from some of my favorite local spots.

Listen up. You guys need to be supporting your neighborhood spots right now. Brett, I know you've been doing that. Sure have. Just a Polvos that I've been. You've been to Polvos? Oh, yeah. Big fan.

Very big fan. Noted salsa bar. Yeah. Ah, okay. They have paste there? New York City. They make their own stuff. Very big fan. Noted salsa bar. Yeah. Okay. They have paste there? New York City. They make their own stuff. I don't want to talk about it.

I've only been ordering local because it's a great way to support my community. Dylan, do you even support the community? I'm a big local guy, Dave. Everybody knows that about me. Don't bring that shit at me. That Baskin-Robbins around the corner from Dave's house. They don't just deliver burgers and sushi. They actually make my life easier by picking up everything I need from Walgreens and 7-Eleven

and just dropping it off outside my door. How about that? Contactless. No contact is what that means. Download the Postmates app on iOS or Android. Find your favorites.

Dylan, something near and dear to your heart Yes You know My son Parks He's getting older And We're hitting milestones now And today was

Maybe his biggest one Well Technically he started school A month back As you know He's been doing virtual school He's been doing it here at the office Because I can't just

leave him at home i gotta take him with me you know hillary wrote that book it takes a village i feel like we were the village helping we were we were raising virtual learning we were definitely the village people we were teaching the kid so he's been doing uh his his virtual stuff here which has been great um but i'm sad to say he would no longer be coming in here with me that's too bad randy you guys my dog who's with us today, was asking, like, hey, is Parks going to be there? Because he loves, like, hanging out with Parks, and it's just sad. I was like, no, he's at school, man.

Could be a plus, too. He's no longer here to beat you up every day. Not getting the shit kicked out of me every morning is a positive or just being defamed as a poophead or whatever. He likes to beat you up, and then when he leaves, he finishes with a hug. That's the kind of guy he is. It's all love. He hugs you on the way out, which is great.

But, yeah, he went to actual real physical kindergarten today for the first time. Wow. I dropped him off. He and his mother and I, we drove to school together, dropped him off, and it was bittersweet. The kid's growing up, man, and it's, you know. Was it any easier being that you feel like you've had his first day already of kindergarten? Or did it feel just as emotional?

So last year for pre-K, he did it at an actual elementary school. And it felt like, I mean, it was. It was real school. But it wasn't technically kindergarten. So we did the whole thing. We dropped him off and got the picture staying. We got to sit down with him at the cafeteria cafeteria tables and all that and and i was eating breakfast and we got to say bye to him so that was emotional for me i got very very choked up

um so i feel like i've already done it and now this year since he's been doing the virtual school for a month it didn't feel the same yeah and i couldn't take him inside the school. I just had to – we couldn't get out of our car, actually, because of the COVID protocol that we – we just let him out, and then they escorted him inside and all that. So it was a little bit different, but still pretty meaningful, you know. It's crazy, man. It's crazy. Dave.

Man. People say it, but it's true. They grow up fast. Yeah. Be ready for it. I'm ready. They grow up fast. Yeah. Be ready for it. I'm ready. They change so fast, man. I'm ready.

I feel like he was kind of warming up to us, too. Yeah. Yeah, dude. He was having fun. He loved coming in here. I hope he doesn't forget about us. His two favorites are Dave and KJ. No offense to Will. It's fine.

He talked me into downloading like four or five different apps on the iPad the first day we hung out. Oh, yeah. He'll do that. How many dinosaurs do you have now? I don't have any because he beat me in the game. You're free to. I have Fall Guys on my laptop.

Nice. And so I was like, well, we can play Fall Guys. I'm thinking like, okay, now I can put this kid in his place. No. He's the only one who got close to advancing between the two of us. It was embarrassing. Yeah. So, you know, I guess.

It's crazy, man. He's beating me up know, I guess. It's crazy, man. He's beating me up mentally, I guess. Was he excited to start school? He was very excited. He was buzzing all morning long. Because I saw the little fit he got off today, and I would be excited, too. Yeah. His mom got him some Jordan, some retro ones, some J's.

Were they all laid out? They're clean. Shoes were half-tied the night before? He hit him with some whitewashed jeans, too. Damn. And the J's. Oh, yeah with some whitewashed jeans, too. Damn. And the J's. Oh, yeah. What's the fucking trip?

And just a casual pocket tee. Dude, he's coming through dripping. Understated. Yeah. Love it. I bought him some white Vans. Really? Yeah.

Damn, Parks. Damn, Parks. Damn, Parks. Dude, remember that? It was a viral video. Yeah, I do. Verbal memes. So he's not going to be in here with us anymore, distracting us and tapping on the window and taking poop breaks and all that stuff.

It's bittersweet, as you said, because while we did enjoy having him around, I think toward the last spooky season we did, he was going absolutely nuts outside this window. For the entire episode. And to our credit, we powered through it. But I was like, dude, does he know this is his last chance to mess with us? Like, what's going on here? Maybe he did. Yeah. You know, he's five, and the attention span is not fully developed yet.

He's all growns up. Yeah. As they might say. What do you have for breakfast? He does breakfast at school they provide breakfast and lunch that's tight

what a concept yeah damn man I think I mentioned this already but I found out that his school bus picks him up right in front of our house

like right in front of our house huge and I asked him if he wants to do it I said I'll take you to school if you want but you can try the school bus he said I want to try it

and see if I like it so next time I have him which will be Wednesday so Thursday morning we're going to try the school bus he said i want to try it and see if i like it so next time i have him which will be wednesday so thursday morning we're going to do the school bus thing and we'll see if he's into it okay nice oh are you gonna be are do other kids also get picked up there or is it like yeah i think all the kids from like the surrounding like block will walk some of the juice boxes some of the other kids parents waiting at the school bus stop. Maybe me and Stella waiting out there. Just a hella cute scene. You might even get a pump in before a school bus pick up.

That's a good move. Dylan's getting the bands out. Just trying to be as vascular as possible. Did a couple push-ups before you get there? Parks is dead, dude. Dude's yoked. No, it'll be fun. Well, I'm happy for him.

We're going to need a full rundown on how many kids he's stuffed into lockers. I'll pick him up today. 230, man. How many kids he's stuffed into cubbies? They still do cubbies? I don't know how they do it at this school. Locker and a cubby. I need both.

I haven't been able to go inside the school yet because of the whole COVID sitch. Just eat it more? I leaned away. Yeah, just tilt it a little. It's kind of at a weird angle. I keep moving it around that's okay people out there we're pulling back the curve i did daycare drop off for the first time last week those you don't know i have a uh three almost three and a half month child uh

and it was very strange because you know again you cannot go into the building yeah but i was like all right this is just like all right come grab this kid and i guess i'll see him in a few hours my child safe and alive while exactly so yeah my threshold for like how it goes is just like okay healthy alive like and we're good so and it seems closer than uh it feels now i can you know i echo what he says. Those three months flew by. Oh, man. Is he doing sports tryouts? They have, like, football after school?

No. Seven on seven? He's in kindergarten. Here, especially. Texas. No. No, nothing like that. He does know jujitsu.

Kind of. It's true. What belt did he get? I took him for a class, and he made it about five minutes before he wanted to leave. Well, he got choked out. He left early. He got tapped. Somebody took his back.

But to be fair, it was an intimidating class. Like, it was, he needed something much more. You know where that went wrong? I'm going to do a little Monday morning quarterback. You should have gotten in there on the mats, and you should have done it with him. Like, showing him, like, if he would have seen you in there, like, doing somebody's, like, in an arm bar, he might have gotten in there like he really tried he did it for me he's like parks just give it a shot buddy and he goes okay

he went out there and he got on the ground a little bit and was learning some moves and finally he was just like i can't i'm not into it and it's like let's go home we'll try again soon go home it was cute man man. What a guy. Speaking of cute, you guys see this dog face 208 feller? What a cute vid. This dude's going mega vibe. Oh, yeah. I don't know how late we are in this, but whatever.

I'm tired of being early on stuff. So I feel like it's only fair that we get back to our roots. If you guys haven't seen the the I guess he's longboarding. He's on a skateboard of some sort. And he's chugging the cran juice. The cranberry. Ocean spray, I believe. This was a TikTok, correct?

Was it a TikTok? Yeah. Dogface208. Great feather head tattoo, by the way. One of the better head tattoos you'll see. That tattoo is a vibe. Better stache than me, I'll say it. I'll say it. Okay.

It's a good stache. It's big of you. If you haven't seen it, I don't know, like you probably don't do the internet very well, but he's singing Dreams, a Fleetwood Mac classic, sung by the great Stevie Nicks. Yeah. An all-time song. Just a great song, and I don't really know what about this video.

I guess the randomness of just the, like, who's drinking cranberry juice right out of the bottle? Hard to listen to that song and stay in a poor mood, you know? It's just uplifting. I would say the whole video, again, was vibe and or mood.

The biggest thing that stuck out to me was that he effortlessly codes, merges from the sidewalk into the street what looks to be a highway, and it immediately struck me as like, I think this is going to be somewhere in the Dakotas or I don't know, that part of the country the northern plains turns out he was in idaho falls so it wasn't you know far off uh you know vancouver bamf close at least wow but uh seamless what really i was irked about or apprehensive about i should say is i was like okay how many days are we away from like Ellen having a FaceTime

interview with this guy him getting a whole new like tattoo on the other side of his head or like some sort of like giveaway exhibit's gonna pimp his ride then a month later we find out he's got some illicit background that like wouldn't have mattered to enjoy the video but like we overexposed him to the point where... Exactly. We're going to find his Reddit history. It's not going to be pretty. Mick Fleetwood, did you see the response? I did see the response.

Yes. He recreated it. So Mick Fleetwood's clearly working with someone managing his social media presence. Because Mick Fleetwood, first of all, I knew he was alive still, but like, no, he's alive and well by all accounts. It's just like he doesn't need to do anything. He's Mick Fleetwood. Which is why I think no one's working.

He doesn't have like a social media person. It's probably like his grandkids, like, hey, you should recreate this video. Hopefully it is. Hopefully it is. That's what happened. He's one step away from being the Instagram account that just comments on every Joe Rogan or whatever post that's going to get 10 million views, just like a flexed arm or like a fire emoji. People do just to put your name out there. Oh, yeah.

But this isn't – I'm not trying to go at Mick here, but he recreated the video, which is cool. Only going to help out Dogface208. Dog, great name. He gave him credit, too, in his post, which is nice. Good to see. Do you remember the Dogface boy in Saving Silverman? No. Okay.

I only remember the tail. Oh. Jason Alexander's character had a tail. Isn't that a part of that? Is it Saving Silverman? No. Is that not the same thing? Jason Alexander's character had a tail. Isn't that a part of that? Is it Saving Silverman? No. Is that not the same thing? Jason Alexander?

George Costanza? George Costanza? No, that's a different movie. He's not in Saving Silverman. Then what's that movie? Shadow Howe. Same difference. It's definitely not.

Okay. I thought Brett would be... All right, whatever. Saving Silverman's a funny movie. I don't know who you're talking about, though. It is pretty good. Jack Black, Jason... All right, same, same, but different.

Basically the same. Neil Diamond. Neil Diamond. Neil Diamond is in this movie. Speaking of icons of music, what's your favorite song on the Rumors album, Brett? Landslide. I mean, has to be.

Likes to cry. I love to cry. It's a great song. Okay. Dogface 208 now at 1.1 million instagram followers wow by the way is he a content machine or just a one-hit wonder yes he's got a few other tiktoks out there i still have not ventured out to tiktok to check him out but in the original thread people were reposting his other things and that seems to be his bit he's he's been grinding yeah he's he's

not a just a one-video guy. He's got talks for days. Yeah. Sometimes you just do that thing that just strikes a chord with people, and he nailed it. Pretty good story, too. He was living out of an RV with no running water. Oh.

And now he's not. Because of this video? Yeah. Since going viral, he has had thousands upon thousands of dollars in donations. Okay, I was going to say, you can't monetize your TikTok videos. No, he has a car. Ocean spray has reached out and just given him a lifetime support. Ocean spray, footlocker.

Oh, I made that up. I didn't know ocean spray was still around until I saw this video. What? Dude, I go organic, bro. Man, I do not like cranberry juice. Yikes. Have a UTI one time. Yeah.

Really bad aftertaste. You must have a nice urinary tract. I've never had to do that, but I've always heard that's like the remedy. I think that's right. I feel like it's an older person beverage. Fair, unless you also like vodka. Yeah, and then you're just an older alcoholic, which is fine, too. I think the circles are older alcoholic and 21-year-old female alcoholic.

Yeah. And then you're doing vodka crayons. That's one. Vodka with a splash of crayons. Just a little vodka crayon. It's not bad. Just enough to make it pink. Just a little kiss.

I don't know whose voice that is. Well, shout out to Dogface. Do you have a real name? Nathan. Shout out, Nathan. I really hope this doesn't turn on the guy. The guy looked awesome. Following this one up is going to be tough.

I just hope... What happens to these viral sensations? Then he's going to end up in one of those TikTok houses, and he's going to up in like one of those tiktok houses and he's gonna get hooked up with like another another like they're gonna do a collab video with him and like the add me on the ground and it's gonna be like whoa dude are doing the things together little echo what's his name little esco esco the one who told dylan he needed to get his drip up yeah he called me he called you out on that a long time he said i was old and he didn't get his drip up. Yeah, he called me old, too. He called you out on that a long time ago. He said I was old and he needed to get my drip up.

I think this ends with Dogface 208 on Dancing with the Stars. That's fine with me. Good. That would be a nice little send-off. He's had his moment. He has his follow-up moment, Dancing with the Stars, and kind of rides off into the Ken Bowen sunset. Did you see that bitch Carol Baskin got sent home? Oh, man.

What if I pitch this pivot that Activision adds him as like a customized, an extra character in Tony Hawk? Ooh, wow. Dog face, his ocean spray, just riding a longboard. Damn, buddy. KJ, do that. Integrations. What are you doing?

I'm just saying. Pitch solutions around here. I do have to call out KJP who recreated this TikTok with a pumpkin on his head and a pumpkin spice latte that he poured into his face. Oh, yes. I watched that one. Yeah, well, he was green-screening that.

Oh, you just had to spoil the fun. Yeah, I did. Wait, he green-screened it? Yeah, watch it again and think it's a green-screening and be like, oh, this is really bad. So he wasn't on a board at all. I was going to say Mick Fleetwood didn't seem like he was making much, covering much distance.

Well, Mick Fleetwood's an old man. Again, understandable. I know. I had that thought, too. I'm like, wow, he's getting around pretty good on the skateboard. Yeah. Hope he doesn't fall and have a catastrophic hit. Just somebody on a knee Like with a

Bush in their hand Just like waving it by So it just makes it look like He's passing them at high speed That's not actually What happened in the video But that's what happened Seeing him mouth the song

Like that song It was just like Oh wow It's Mick Fleetwood He's doing the song He knows all the words I just hope he doesn't go on Like Tosh.0

And ruin this Maybe he'll be on One of the 14 hours Of ridiculousness Is Tosh still't go on like Tosh.0 and ruin this. Maybe he'll be on one of the 14 hours of ridiculousness. Is Tosh still around? Yes. Is Tosh.0 though? Yes. Really? Yes. I listened to some Tosh stand-up on my ride home yesterday on one of the comedy

Sirius channels. It was good. I can tell you this, it would not be that bit wouldn't work in 2020. This particular one, but it was for the time. I put myself back in like 2009 or whenever it was, and it was funny. Unnecessary additional fact, finding out that he hosted a show called Tens that was just basically a camera guy. What do you think of like his art man and what's the chick from that art man's old show? Brooke Burke.

They used to just go around the beaches, interview people, whatever. Tosh did a similar show where he would just go to clubs in Miami. Him and another, at the time, just hot female host. And they would just interview people at a nightclub. Hot people. While they're like, mm, mm, mm, dancing. And I'm like, as a 13-year-old kid, this was great content. Oh, yeah.

And then once I found out that was Daniel Tosh, I was like, all right, that wormhole's good. Let me just turn this into a niche. I bet he picked up so many chicks doing that. Because he's like, chicks think he's hot, right? He's like funny hot. UCF guy, I think. Is he UCF? I think.

He's something, Florida. He dodged the bullet of getting popular, big commercial, and just getting played out, which I would say some people would say he is, but like Dane Cook, uncool. Amy Schumer, Dane Cook. Yeah, like to where people just like him so much, and then it's like, oh, whatever, you still like them? Yeah.

So, I don't know. He's still cooking, though. New season. I've watched that while watching the – or I didn't watch it, but I saw the commercial while watching the South Park special. By the way I took a strand from South Park. I don't know if you saw it. The pandemic stash is

yeah. And that's fine. I respect it. Look live long enough to see your favorite show come at you. I'm fine with that. Truly. Dylan's just over here crushed that the guy skateboarding in a pumpkin head was not real. He's really looking into it. Dude, hop on a longboard.

No, I wasn't. Oh, you're not? No. That's what I thought you were doing. No, no, no. Dylan will do some research on you. I was not watching that, but hop on a longboard, dog. Do it right.

Yeah, I agree. Where would you acquire a longboard right now? Like, where does one find a longboard? I don't know, but unless you have direct access to a studio this person went through more trouble to recreate it than to just i mean with it like editing i hate follow this guy they have access to studios they are the most instagram family of all time literally of all time it'd be an absolute shame if somebody had a sign off to a certain live stream recreating this i'd be just pathetic but i don't know oh man that's a good call that's a real good call the king of the

green screen himself human so lately i've been doing this thing where i like to wear my lounge pants just kind of everywhere uh same i'll wear them at the house i'll wear them like when i go to the store whatever um i've noticed some things that kind of annoy me about some of them i'm not going to name names but like uh the right waist and right length combo i have like a weird my my ratios might be a little bit difficult but i have some trouble and that is why i'm a big fan of new old sponsor alert new but old sponsor alert public wreck yes i'm glad i remember these i'm glad you mentioned the waistband it's perfect people sleep on the waistband it's a very important part of the comfort situation in pants oh my gosh i like it with these i like that if i go out to you know wherever take randy for a walk

or whatever it is i don't have to change. If I see the neighbors, I'm like, they're going to be like, oh, this guy's an upstanding citizen. Back when we ran these ads a long time ago, I told you the first time I tried them on, they were so uncomfortable. But I was going to dinner that night. They looked good enough that I could wear them to a nice restaurant. And I did. They look like slacks. They feel like slacks, but they feel

like sweatpants. They make leisure wear and waist and inseam sizes because comfort starts with a better fit. My favorite pants are their best-selling all-day, everyday pants. Yes. I call it the ADED pants is what I have called it in the past. They're a more stylish alternative to sweatpants and a more comfortable alternative to jeans. How about that? Brett, now, did you get your first pair recently? I did, Dave. And like Dylan said, they basically morph from the couch to the golf course. Maybe not the golf course, but the driving range, at least, is where I use them, to the post-driving range beer. And to the discotheca.

Yeah. If you want to. I'm wearing the... I'm not in Spain, but... Imagine just pulling up in your public wrecks when you're at the discotheca. Toss the valet your keys. Oh, yeah. It's on.

Yeah. You're skipping the line. You don't have to grease the guy's palms. No. That rope's coming down for you. They're going right back up when you walk through. They do look like you're a street wear buff, and you can crush them.

You can get anywhere with these things. They're versatile, I think, is what we're looking for here. Yes, that's versatile. They fit short guys, tall guys, and everyone in between. Okay? And in between would be like 5'9 guys like myself. Where am I playing tall guys? That's a great point.

So between like you and Kevin? The chant. Catching a stray in the hat. They come in nine different colors, one for each day of the week, and then some. That's what I like about it. Sometimes I'll just throw on

like two different ones per day. Like I'll just be like, you know what, I'm going to switch it on and see if the guys notice. No one's doing that. No one's doing that. And of course they always notice. Now you can get your whole wardrobe

from Public Rec. They've got incredibly comfortable shorts, too. Also t-shirts, Dylan, Henleys. How about that? Oh, Thursdays only. Polos, hoodies, jackets, even golf gear.

courtesy of our friend Ricky Prosper. This is allegedly from our old, or I guess this podcast, maybe like a year or two ago. I don't even remember. Yeah, I do not recall this conversation at all. I'm going to play it here from my computer. And I just want, does this ring a bell with anyone? Because for me me i'm completely

lost what if you're watching the masters and like yeah like tiger's on 15 it's like sunday and he gets on and he drains it for eagle and you look over at your eagle and he just kind of looks at you getting his eagle on you just you just little you bump his little talent yo he did it he did it he did. No, he did it. Oh, God. What if Tiger's really on fire and he's got like five eagles throughout the tournament, and every time you look over, he's like, yeah, get it. I'm an eagle.

I'm an eagle. You don't have to do this every time. That's a big deal. I guess this segment's called, what is that even from? When did we ever talk about that? It's a funny segment. It's made much more funny by the accompanying animation. He did a really good job with that. I do not know what this is from.

No recollection. You can remember all conversations we've had, at least bits and pieces of it. This one, I'm just a complete blank. I guess in this scenario, you had a pet eagle? I don't know what started the conversation. Brett, you have any ideas? Brett didn't know anything. Were we doing...

I'm sorry. Goodness. What'd you say? Brett didn't know anything. I don't know where that came from, Brett. You know plenty. That's okay. Were we doing like spirit animals or something like that?

No. I don't think. I don't think. I don't think we were doing animals we'd want to hang out and watch the Masters with. So when I saw this pop up... I might pick an eagle, though, to be fair. I thought maybe tiger... I got scared for a second. I was like, wait, why is he bringing out some old-ass tiger audio?

Did tiger just announce his retirement? What happened? I thought I missed something. What animal... Was it a falcon or an eagle that hit the or that grabbed the drone uh i think it was an eagle but not a bald eagle like a okay different like a golden eagle or something like that okay because if that happened around march or february then i can see this coming together i don't know but i i would remembered if it was that recent. I'll tell you this. Ricky Prosper is now an animation guy, which is scary.

Just flexing. Very talented. I thought that was legit. Had the little Sunday Scaries candle. I saw that. Burn it. Did you see it? It said this candle smells like a candle.

Oh, did it? A play on the goop sensation. It's really good. There's levels. Ah. I like it. Ricky knows content, man. He's got that content brain. Man.

Keep an eye out. I just wonder how he paid John Leguizamo to play Dylan. It's wild. It does look like him. Randy's low-key gassy over here. I'm sorry. I haven't noticed it yet. I just did.

I think it's because he had some of my parents' dog's food. I think he's just hitting them different. Always a risk. Gut biome is just like, what are we doing? Like throwing our hands up. Yep, there it is. He finally made its way over. Randy.

It's okay, Randy. Hey, pal, it's okay. It happens to everybody, bud. We're exposing you on the pod. People still love you. Brett, you got any breaking news? Yeah. I mean, sure.

Anything on Eichel we need to know about? No, no. The Sabres are not trading Jack Eichel for now. They're not dangling him? Knock on wood. They're not dangling him. He's got to hang on to him. We got to hang on to Eichel.

He's the future. We got to hang on to Eichel. There are trades that are going to happen today. Draft is tomorrow, which I'm excited about. Ooh. That you can, you know, too much dip will cover it which I'm excited about. Ooh. That you can, you know, too much dip will cover it,

I'm sure. In depth. In depth, for sure. But the two pieces of breaking news I have are either Joe Biden, you know, the president has enough

breaking news. You can get that from another place. Does Brett always want to make a political man? Or Footie. Let's start with Footie. Footie.

What's wrong with Footie? No, they're not. We'll get to Biden. I feel weird talking Footie. Let's start with footie. Footie. What's wrong with footie? Nothing, nothing. We'll get to Biden. I feel weird talking footie without Will. He'll be okay. All right. You won't even listen. Let's talk about it.

Are you familiar with Gunnarsaurus, Dave? That is one of Park's favorite dinosaurs. Well, Arsenal, the club in England, has fired their mascot, Gunnarsaurus. Get the fuck out of here. For what? In the middle of a pandemic. What? That's sad.

They said a cost-cutting venture. When they're about to drop millions. Oh, so you fire the dude they pay like $35K a year? He's been there for 25 years. He's probably making more than $35K. That's not a full-time job, though. Is it not? I don't know.

Unclear. There's no way. They fired their job, though. Is it not? I don't know. Unclear. There's no way. They're fighting their mascot, Dylan. That seems unnecessary. He's been there forever, and Twitter is not happy. Stan Kroenke is the guy who owns that team. Oh, Stan Kroenke also owns the LA Rams. And the now-defunct Colorado Rush.

Dude. He co Colorado Rush. Dude. I completely misunderstood. I thought Gunnarsaurus was like the coach. I just looked it up and no, it really is.

It's a mascot dinosaur. No, it's George's nephew. Ha! The guy who's really pulling the strings behind the scenes. That's my next piece of news.

So are they going to just not have a mascot? Are they going to put someone else in that costume? Or how's this work? It's unclear, Dylan. Gangs are BYOM now. You can't. I mean, the mascot was a source of love and joy for many, many people. Remember the chicken?

The chicken and the Philly chicken? The big mascot who would go stadium to stadium and it was like a big deal. He was the chicken man. Yeah. You don't remember that? I know Gritty. Okay. Under Source has an official Twitter account.

It's even verified. Yeah. Hasn't tweeted since September 28th, unless some recent tweets have been removed, which is possible given this news. I don't know. You think he was just like going off on Twitter about like Boris Johnson? given this news. I don't know. You think he was just going off on Twitter about Boris Johnson? Yeah, maybe. I don't know.

But yeah, nothing since September 28th, which I guess that's not too long ago. I just want to, hey, to Gunnersaurus, I hope you find your feet, scales, your talents. I hope you find your talents, buddy. I hope you land on your talons. You got to think that they could go automated with this and have like a droid, a robot of some sort do the mascot stuff. I just thought it was going to have talons. I thought some of them did.

What does a Velociraptor have, dude? It's just a claw. Talons aren't a bird, right? Yeah, but aren't dinosaurs and birds like the closest relatives? You know what Parks and I learned recently? That if it could fly, it was not a dinosaur. So pterodactyl, pteranodons, they're not actually dinosaurs. What are they then?

I don't know. Different family. Pseudoceratops, big mosquitoes. Different family of animal. Huh. Kind of weird. A lot of people don't know that. What's the Joee biden news brett well the

biden campaign has tapped the likes of jermaine dupree oh no ludicrous welcome to atlanta monica and cheesy to uh head up there get out the vote ads the snowman wait is this like with a colon in between out and the? Like get out the vote? No, it's just get out the vote. All capitalized. I thought it was going to be a play on the movie. They're recording get out the vote ads focusing on black voters in battleground states. Oh, joy.

Get out the vote, I guess, because it's a mail-in system this time around, huh? Send them out? Instead of get out and vote, it's get out the vote. Send it out. Hard to say. There are drop-off places. Yes.

Place in Houston now. There's only one place in Travis County, right? I just think it's interesting that they're tapping like 2002. The stakes are definitely lower it seems like because it's now not vote or die which was vote or die was

one of the worst vote or die was tight and then rock the vote was another election fun fact I didn't vote no I'm kidding I think I voted that election I know some people

didn't vote and they didn't die they will eventually 12 years ago vote or die I don't know which was first vote or die

and then rock the vote I'm thinking about it in terms of South Park because there was like an iconic South Park voter die. I have one other breaking news for a few. Don't mind me adding. Yeah. The only other stuff was, you know, just minor things like Kaylee McEnany and, you know, presidential things. People are going to blame me for being the spin zone.

presidential things. People are going to blame me for being the spin zone. A place that Dylan is really familiar with, a very niche, small, locally owned restaurant in Nashville, Hattie B's, is expanding into the Dallas market, opening up a location in Deep Ellum. Is this hot chicken? Hot chicken. Hot chicken. Yes.

It's fried chicken. I love hot chicken. It's chicken. I will pull the indie move of saying I'm a huge fan of Bolton's. I went to Nashville for my bachelor party. Didn't try Hattie B's. I'm hot chicken. It's chicken. I will pull the indie move of saying I'm a huge fan of Bolton's. I went to Nashville for my bachelor party. Didn't try Hattie B's. I'm excited to try it. They have other locations, it sounds like, and other places that include the shithole

that is Memphis, which you'll hear more about in Too Much Dip. Wow. But Hattie B's, coming to Deep Ellum. Did you do a pedal tavern and wear sashes and shit? I may or may not have picked it because it was number one bachelorette party in the capital of the world. I am that scumbag, so

you know, whatever. It was a great time. Where was yours, Dave? Nolens. That good one. That's solid. It was real hot. That's solid. What time, what part of the year did you go? I think we went in the summer. It smelled like trash, but it didn't matter.

Didn't matter, man. Just having the guys together one last time. You guys party, man. You were there. No, I didn't get the invite. Brett, I didn't know you. You were probably like 14. What year was this? I don't know.

That was fun. I think KJ did quite the job filling in for one Will DeFries. As we knew he would. Those are big Yeezys to fill, I should say. What's his footwear of choice now? He's a big Vans guy. He's got those Nike wave runners. No.

Well, he has those. He doesn't wear them. He's got the Yeezy wave runner. The same kind of shoes you have. Those Nike ones. I don't know. Kill shots. Oh, the Flywire?

I thought he was just hiking barefoot, like just getting in touch with the earth. He said he was going to become a crystal guy. He's going to be very granola when he gets back. He's just going to be like a Nature Valley bar, just all crunched up and poured over some. Is that what you do? Crunch them up? I don't eat them at all. I think they're trash, even if they're out in the article.

They're good. A lot of sugar, though. Gives me a tummy ache. The move is to crunch them up in the bag and then dump them in the yogurt, mix that up. You got a treat there. I respect that. I've tried and failed many times to just have that on the road,

and you just take that one bite, and it's like, all right, I'll be vacuuming this out in three months. Yeah, it's impossible not to make a mess eating my stuff. Sorry, I'm sidelining this. That's okay. Last thing I've got, we're about to record Too Much Dip. Give it a chance to earn your business. Listen today.

It's going to be fun. We've got a lot to talk about. If you're into sports, and even if you're not, you might find something you like in there. Like my weekend recap. Oh, can't wait. We'll save it for then. Okay. We will see you all save it for them. Okay. We will see you on Wednesday.

Bye. Bye. you
